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.
if i understand you right, you are asking how many square bales = 1 large round bale, and by large i think you mean 5 wide bales, 5x5, 5x5.25, 5x5.50, 5x6 ect. the answer is 20 - 35 small two wire bales.
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.
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.
q 4'x6' round bale makes 25 bales a 5'x6' makes 30 bales
A 3'x5' round bale has a circumference of approximately 18.85 feet (using the formula C = πd). To determine how many square bales this equates to, you need to know the dimensions of the square bales. Generally, a standard square hay bale is about 2'x2' or 3'x3'. For a 2'x2' square bale, you could fit about 10 square bales in a 3'x5' round bale, while for a 3'x3' square bale, you would fit about 5.
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.
75-100 bales depending on the type of hay, 1st or 2nd cutting , and the size of the bale.
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
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.
Small square bales generally weigh between 55-80 lbs. Three strand bales can weigh in excess of 100 lbs. There are considerably larger bale sizes that range in weight from 600-2000 lbs.
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!
This will entirely depend on cubic feet of each bale. with only 5 foot as the measurement it is impossible to give a 100% accurate answer. However where I live they sell 5'x6'x5' and 6'x6'x5' round bales each size having a variable weight depending upon the type of hay and when it was baled. Lets assume that the small square bales are 16"x14"x41" (Again a locally sold size). For the first round bale 5x5x6 the cubic feet would be 150 cubic feet, for the small bale it would be roughly 5.3 cubic feet. That means that 28.3 small bales would be needed to equal the same size as the round bale. The second bale is larger at 6x6x5 which equals 180 cubic feet, you would need roughly 33.9 small bales. However overall bale size (Dimensions and weight) is variable according to the type of hay used, growing conditions of the hay, and the baler used. It is over all more accurate to go by weight rather than volume.
