Learn about the benefits of using a dicing press
Press selection is influenced by, among other things. what purpose you are harvesting and storing straw or hay for, how large your farm is, and whether you work alone or have people to help.
Dicing press – equipment that will work well for a small farm… and more.
Do you hear “dicing press” and see in your mind small cubes of hay, straw or green fodder that can be easily lifted in your hands?
The cube press makes it possible to produce hand-carriable cubes with a length and width of less than 1 meter, standard dimensions of 36 x 46 cm, weighing about 10 kg. The machine allows you to adjust the length of the cube and the degree of compression. The hay is previously dried in the field and collected in piles, then loaded into the baler.
The dicing baler will make it easier to work on a small farm, on small fields with an irregular shape, as well as on hard-to-reach fields located on slopes.
Uneven terrain? Bet on a machine adapted to tough conditions
Harvesting hay or straw on uneven, hilly or mountainous terrain can be a challenge. If this is what a field or meadow looks like on your property, a dicing press will work perfectly here. Most of such machines weigh less than 1 ton, are relatively small and definitely maneuverable, which definitely helps in traversing narrow forest roads and makes them perform very well in difficult conditions.
Convenient transport of straw, hay or green fodder
You will only need the help of a second person to load the smallest cuboid bales onto the tractor trailer. For cubes from a dicing press , a small trailer will not be a problem. Thanks to the small size of the loads, you can export them in batches
Are you storing straw or hay in your barn attic? Bet on cubes
Also consider how to store hay or straw. If you are storing them in the attic, small cubes will work much better. For stacking in the barn, two people are enough – one who feeds the cubes from below, and another who places them on the floor of the loft.
Bales from a dicing press – ideal for growers
A cube from a dicing press with a small size is much more convenient for daily use. You can move it to the barn or pigsty by hand or transport it in a wheelbarrow. To get the right amount of hay, straw or silage, all you need to do is untie the string.
If you feed your cattle hay or use straw as bedding in your pigsty, the ease of unwinding the hay or straw will be a plus. The dicing press does not compress the material to its full thickness, so you can retrieve the necessary amount of straw or hay for your daily work with great ease.
