Small bales made by a first-of-its-kind baler enabled Lynn Fischer to satisfy horse-hay clients asking for smaller packages. J.J. Granstrom wasn't able to crack his local horse market with the bales, but found an unexpected market in small dairy operators who feed hay by hand. Fischer and Granstrom are among the first U.S. owners of Krone's 1270 Big Pack baler with the MultiBale feature. Introduced last year, the computerized baler makes single big bales or up to nine small bales within each big one. Big bales are 2.3' high, 4' wide and up to 9' long. Small bales are 4' long and vary in width from 1' to 4.4', depending on the number in each big bale.
