Square bales were first made in the mid-19th century, with the invention of the mechanical hay baler. The first practical baler was developed in the 1850s, revolutionizing the process of hay and straw collection. This innovation allowed for more efficient storage and transportation of fodder, significantly impacting agricultural practices.

How many square bales of hay does it take to lightly mulch one acre?

An acre is 43,560 square feet. Most small square bales would lightly cover at least 2x10 ft, but more likely 2x15 ft . Therefore; 43,560 divided by 30 (if each square bale covers 30 sq/ft as an average) = 1,452 square bales. If the bales are larger (round bales), obviously fewer bales would be required. Large round bales would likely provide at least 10X the coverage so likely in the range of 145 round bales

How many square bales fit on a pallet?

The number of square bales that can fit on a pallet depends on the size of the bales and the dimensions of the pallet. Typically, a standard pallet measures 48 inches by 40 inches. For example, if using 14-inch by 18-inch bales, you might fit about 8 to 12 bales per layer, with a total of 2 to 4 layers depending on weight and stability. Therefore, around 16 to 48 bales can fit on a single pallet.


How many bales of alfalfa can you get from an acre?

That all depends on the size and type of bales you have, as well as the forage biomass of that field. Bales come in not just one size, they come in small square, large square, small round and large round bales. Forage biomass is also different from year to year, depending on current seasonal conditions (moisture, sunlight, soil) for your area.
