STORING FARM PLASTICS
| Best practice for storing farm plastics (bale wrap and silage pit plastic) .... |
 |
|
1. Choose an area of the farmyard to store farm plastics that will allow access to a rigid truck. Ensure this storage area will not “get in the way” of other farming activities. This storage area should be on concrete to avoid contamination.
2. Make up a pallet box by tying 3-4 pallets together. This will hold up to 350 bale wraps.
3. Once the wrap plastic is taken off the bale, shake the plastic well to remove any dirt/soil and place it in the pallet box.
