Round baler
The New Holland BR Roll-Belt round baler comes in eight models,
producing bales weighing 300 to 2,200 pounds.
Some are designed to bale crops with moisture content up to 65 percent
for high quality round bale silage.
The roll-and-belt design uses heavy-duty rolls in front of the bale
chamber and short, tough belts in the back to deliver consistent core
formation and tight, uniform bales in dry hay, cornstalks and silage.
Extra-wide pickups ensure fast, positive feeding.

Nytro Ag Corp and Green Lightning recieved an innovation award at Ag in Motion 2025 for the Green Lightning Nitrogen Machine, which converts atmospheric nitrogen into a plant-usable form.
The Bale-Slice system, optional on the BR740 Silage Special and the
BR780, cuts crops as bales are formed, resulting in bales that feed
more easily and are more
digestible.
The company said a recent university study proves bales made with the
Bale-Slice system are up to 14 percent denser than unsliced bales and
can increase average daily weight gain in yearling heifers by 23
percent.
Bale-Slice is controlled by a monitoring system and features a series
of knives on the starter roll. The knives pivot into the bale after the
core is formed, resulting in bales that peel apart for easier feeding.
The CropCutter rotary feeding and cutting system, unique to the BR740,
is equipped with up to 15 knives and cuts crop as it is fed into the
baler. Minimum cut length of 2.6 inches is obtained with all 15 knives
installed. Any combination of knives may be used to achieve the desired
length of cut in various crops.
CropCutter bales are denser and heavier due to smaller particle length.
In silage, this increased compaction means less air in the bale,
resulting in better fermentation. In straw, it results in easier
spreading and increased absorbency.
