Using hay bale net wrap significantly reduces the time required to complete each bale. Unlike twine, which requires multiple revolutions to secure a bale, bale wrap net ensures fast and uniform coverage with just a few turns. This boosts baler throughput and reduces operator fatigue.
For example, when using Polypak net to wrap round bales, depending on the type and material of the crop, the number of turns required is only 2-3.

According to research conducted by South Dakota State University, using bale netting wrap can increase baler productivity by up to 25% compared to using twine.
Bales wrapped with net wrap roll maintain a more stable shape and density, making them easier to store and transport. This stability reduces the risk of damage and feed loss during storage.
In addition, hay net wrap offers better moisture protection, helping to preserve the nutritional value of the forage.
Improperly handled twine-wrapped bales can result in loose plastic strands ending up in the feed, posing a health risk to livestock. Studies show that the accumulation of plastic material in a cow’s rumen can lead to serious health issues, including weight loss and digestive problems.
Wrapping a 1.5 m round bale requires approximately 12 m of net wrap versus 48 m of twine.
The benefits of net wrap bale include:
Additionally, hay bale net wrap provides superior protection against moisture and mechanical damage, improving forage quality and reducing losses.
While twine has a lower material cost, bale net wrap delivers clear operational and economic advantages by saving time, reducing resource use, and improving bale quality.
For farmers focused on efficiency, forage preservation, and long-term profitability, round bale net wrap is the smarter choice.
