There are cases were its not about what brings the most money labor saving ect, its whats easy and practical for the user. I worked at 3 different horse farms, thoroughbred boarding and breeding farms, were i kept my horse and the other farm which had upward of 2-300 horse used small square bales, the other nit wit i worked for less then 2 years used big squares, a pain to feed in the stalls.
Second and 3rd pic are what barns look like from the outside, first pic is the view looking down a 40 stall barn, 20 stalls each side, you drive straight threw with the tractor and dump wagon to clean the stalls, the mares and foal were bedded on straw, so night crew would stack straw 2-3 bales high on one side of the shedrow behind the stall door, hay would go on the opposite side of the row, and shavings dumped in center when needed, no way to use round bales in a situation like this, small squares were just easier to deal with.. i laugh at the guys who call them idiot cubes! My friend who used to milk cows in a tie stall barn also put up small squares, about 7000 in the mow above the cows, we would slide open a door in the floor and drop down the hay in the center isle to feed to the cows. There was no way to get a round bale into his barn either. Here we have accumlators, bale baskets, bale stackers ect, i just use a baler with a thrower and rack wagons.
