How heavy are the bales?
They’re typically somewhat over 50 lb. Bales from first cutting tend to be a little heavier. Now, let me warn you about heavy bales! Some folks think a bale should weigh at least 65 pounds or they’re getting cheated. But realize that the standard small bales are all pretty much the same: They come out of a baler with a standard-size opening, and the bales have to be the same size or the stacker wagon wouldn’t be able to pick them up, and they have to be roughly the same “tightness” or you’d see either broken twine or loose bales falling apart.
