On this page you will read how to create bales with balers and load them on trailers in Farming Simulator 22.

Last update: 08 December 2021

On this guide page to Farming Simulator 22, you will read about making bales using special balers, things you can turn into bales, and how to load them on trailers.

How to create bales?

Bales are a convenient way to store and transport grass, hay, or create silage. There are several machines for creating bales. They differ:

  1. in the shape of the bales,
  2. the size of the bale - and thus its capacity,
  3. availability of an additional wrapper.

It is best if the hay/grass is raked in advance to collect it faster. In the machine options, you can select the bale size. Bales can be shapes as a roller or a rectangular. The choice is important when choosing a bale wrapping/collecting machine and your own convenience when it comes to lifting, storing, or stacking on a trailer. When choosing a baler, in addition to the listed features like shape, bale size, and optional wrapper, you should also pay attention to:

  1. Balers with a wrapper do not have the option to turn off the wrapper - to create bales that aren't wrapped!
  2. Balers for rectangular bales do not have wrappers - they must be wrapped using an external machine,

  1. Some balers - as in the photo above - have a place to hold an extra bale. Thanks to this, you do not have to stop the machine to unload bales - this speeds up the work. You will also be able to arrange two bales at once in one place, which will help in collecting them.

How to load bales?

Remember that the FS22 is very flexible - use what you have, you don't necessarily need specialized equipment - Farming Simulator 22: Bailing - tips - Grass, hay and silage - Farming Simulator 22 Guide

FS22 has machines for lifting and stacking bales automatically to create stacks that are easy to load. However, you should always have a front loader attached to the tractor and a trailer for the bales (in fact, you can even load them on a low loader), when there is a lot of them. Other loaders also have forks for bales. Remember, however, that large bales can be very heavy, so may sometimes add extra weights on the rear of the tractor.

Sometimes bales can fall over - some loaders won't be able to deal with this problem - Farming Simulator 22: Bailing - tips - Grass, hay and silage - Farming Simulator 22 Guide

Bales can tip over sometimes. This may make it difficult or impossible for some loaders to put them back. Therefore, a good and convenient way is to use forks instead of loaders with rollers.

Remember that you can choose the bale size in the machine options. When purchasing a wrapper or automatic loader, pay attention to the size and shape of the supported bales.

Forage wagons for bales work in a very simple way - when the machine is deployed, you will see the place where the bales should go - Farming Simulator 22: Bailing - tips - Grass, hay and silage - Farming Simulator 22 Guide

Forage wagons for bales work in a very simple way - when the machine is deployed, you will see the place where the bales should go. The grapple will load it and create a neat stack that you can unload anywhere. Different models have different capacities of bales for stacking.

Front loaders have special tall forks, which are good at lifting and loading bales collected by forage wagons - Farming Simulator 22: Bailing - tips - Grass, hay and silage - Farming Simulator 22 Guide

Front loaders have special tall forks, which are good at lifting and loading bales collected by forage wagons. This prevents the stack from tipping over while loading them.

You don't need special trailers to transport bales - Farming Simulator 22: Bailing - tips - Grass, hay and silage - Farming Simulator 22 Guide

You don't need special trailers to transport bales. Many standard models of trailers have the option to modify them into a flat trailer on which you can place both bales and pallets - without the need to purchase specialized equipment.

How to wrap bales - creating silage

To form silage, a bale of grass (not hay) must be wrapped in foil - Farming Simulator 22: Bailing - tips - Grass, hay and silage - Farming Simulator 22 Guide

To form silage, a bale of grass (not hay) must be wrapped in foil. You need a special machine for that called wrapper.

  1. More expensive bale machines have an automatic wrapping function (you can't turn it off - these balers make only silage bales).
  2. When buying a wrapper, pay attention to what type and size of bales they work with.
  3. Wrapped bales don't turn into silage right away - you have to wait. When approaching a bale, you will see the progress in the lower right corner (1-2 months).
  4. You can load silage bales as well as unwrapped bales - you can also use machines for collecting and forage wagons.

You will also produce silage in prisms, but this is a large-scale solution - mainly if you have very large cow farms or if you want to sell them en masse in a biogas plant.
