How many small bales are in a 3x3 bale?

That depends on what type of bale you're referring to. If you're referring to small square bales, that would be about four. If you're referring to small round bales, that would be only one. Large squares: one third. Large round bales, one half.

How many square bails can you get out of an acre of hay?

The amount of Hay Bales that you yield from one acre is dependant on many variables. This includes the rate per acre it was seeded at, the ratio of grass to alfalfa used, and the size of the bale. It is also dependant on how many cuttings are available in one year. Usually land seeded for hay is planted at 20-30lbs per acre. 3 cuttings per year is often the norm, however, depending on the weather it is possible to obtain a fourth cutting (a fith cutting is rare). Hay usually takes the first year to establish itself. Therefor it is likely to only harvest 20-30 bales in the first cutting of the first year. The following cuttings decrease in production. In the 2-4 years, after the hay has been established, the first cutting is the largest and can produce anywhere from 75-100 bales of hay per acre. The second cutting usually yields 50-75 bales, and it continues to decrease from there. Most farmers anticipate a rough yield of about 200-250 bales per year, after the first year, and provided the weather is good. Hay is a five year crop that is harvested anywhere from 3-5 times during the summer months. Pricing is dependant on the quality of hay; pure alfalfa sells the highest, and typically the price decreases from there depending on the ratio of alfalfa in the bale, and the "leafiness of the bale"


How many tons is a 1500 pound square bale of hay?

1.5 (1 and a half) tons.A standard or "short" ton is 2000 lbs. Therefore a 1500 lb. bale of hay would be 3/4 of a ton.

How many small bale of hay in a 3x3x8 square bale?

Depends on the weight of the bales (both the small squares and large round) and whether that bale is comprised of hay or straw. All bales of hay, straw or baleage are sold in terms of weight (in tons or pounds), not size. Not all LRB's are going to be 5x5; a lot of them range from 4x5 to 6x6. And even then it also depends on how densely packed they are, which ultimately affects their weight. However, let's assume your asking about a 5x5 1500 lb LRB and wondering how many SSBs (assuming they are around 75 lbs each) fit into that particular bale or bales with that similar weight. So, 1500 / 75 = 20 bales; thus it is estimated that 20 SSBs will fit into one 5x5 LRB assuming the weights are what they are.


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 small square bales of hay in a big square bale?

If by one roll of hay, you actually mean a round bale, it is approximately 40. The actual number depends on the density and size of either bale. With modern equipment becoming ever more impressive, I've heard of some round bales being equivalent to nearly 55 square bales, but when packing round bales to these densities, balers are severely stressed and its operating life is greatly reduced. A better way to figure it out is by weight. A 1100 lb round bale has approx. 17/ 65lb square bales Not all round bales are created equal, you need to ask the weight of the bales then divide the # of square bales at the weight your square bales are.


How many small square bales of hay are in a large square bale?

It depends on a lot of different factors, including the type of forage you're baling, where you live, soil quality and type, forage type, whether or not you irrigated and/or fertilized, and so on. Plus, not all round balers are the same. Some will drop heavier bales than others.

How many regular sized bales of hay are in a 36X60 large bale?

What do you mean "regular sized?" There's no such thing as a "regular" sized bale, especially when you don't specify what type of bale you are referring to: large round, small square, small round or large square? And what units of measurement are you using? Are you using inches, feet, centimeters, meters? Please be more specific in your question so you can get a proper answer!

How many square feet does a bail of pine straw cover?

It will depend on the size of the bale. Bales come in different sizes, but most will cover somewhere between 20 square feet to 120 square feet at about 2.5 to 3 inches deep. Ask that question when purchasing your bales since the size does vary considerably and some bales are machined compressed and some are hand compressed. For that reason, just looking at a bale and comparing the sizes does not always tell you how many square feet a particular bale will cover.
