Everything JDSeller said is true. I would however take exception to his comment that the single wrapped bales take up more room to store. I see his point, however, you CAN stack the single wrapped bales in a barn if you so choose. You can't do that with inline wrapped bales. YOu ask, "well, why would I ever want to store single wrapped bales in a barn"? Answer: Have you ever tried busting the snow and ice off of a plastic wrapped bale? Especially ice! It sure is nice to not get all wet from handling the plastic.
I have owned a single bale wrapper for 2 years now. It DOES use considerably more plastic. It also is very slow compared to an inline wrapper. With only doing 50 plus bales a year, I'd certainly use a single wrapper. The University of Kentucky did a study where they compared the inline wrapper to the single unit. Their conclusion was that 400 bales was the amount necessary to justify the inline wrapper. I like the fact I can feed one bale today and maybe wait 2-3 days (or longer) before I feed another bale. When you open the inline row........you're committed to continuous feeding. The single wrapped bales keep so much better over a longer period of time as compared to the inline. The "extra" plastic does have a benefit.
