Size and Shape: Heston bales are typically larger and denser than standard square bales. They are designed to be more efficient for handling, stacking, and transporting.
Uses: These bales are commonly used for feeding cattle, horses, and other livestock. They can also be used for bedding due to their large size and the amount of material they contain.
Production: Heston bales are produced using specialized balers, such as those from the Hesston by Massey Ferguson series. These balers are known for their in-line design, which helps create uniform, dense bales that are easier to handle and store.
Benefits: The dense packing of Heston bales reduces leaf loss and improves the quality of the forage.
