Your local dealer can assist you in setting up your baler or forage harvester to apply preservatives.
Large Square
Large Baler

Large Square Balers
have increased productivity for many haymaking operations, but require the operator to keep a close watch on moisture levels. With the addition of a touch-screen 500 series automatic preservative application system the operator can stay put in the cab and just monitor the operation while the system continuously takes moisture readings and automatically adjusts application rate. Electronic control systems are also available for large square balers. Equipped with a high capacity 100-gallon tank mounted on the rear of the baler, the operator can go almost non-stop.

Sensors for Large Square Balers

Automatic systems for large square balers are equipped with star wheel sensors that run through the bale picking up moisture content and speed of baling.

Round
John Deere Small Square Baler

Round Balers
Hay preservative can be used to bale large round bales between 16% and 30% moisture. You have the option of a 25-gallon application system or, on certain models, a 55-gallon application system. The system mounts on the tongue of the baler and holds enough preservative to treat 30 to 60 tons of hay. Depending on your need, choose a 400 series automatic touch-screen control system, an electronic control system or an economical manual control system (available on 25-gallon systems only).

Sensors for Round Balers 
Round Sensor Automatic systems for round balers are equipped with two sensing discs, one mounted on each of the baler’s side walls, sensing from side to side.
