Square bales Square bales are denser and heavier than round bales, and they can be stacked higher and more tightly. This makes them more efficient for storage, and they can be used in industries like recycling and waste management. Square bales are also a good choice for smaller farms with fewer animals. Round bales Round bales are more common in western countries, and they can be stored outside. However, they can be inefficient to store and transport, and they can waste more hay. Round bales are also more expensive to make than square bales, but the labor savings can make up for the difference.
That was a long one Warren but I watched every minute and enjoyed it - the humour, facts, and the suffering. Re-the stupid woman she was clearly a dominator - I mean you filmed it. But there were more reasons to celebrate - a fantastic hike and a good finish albeit sore. All the best. Mark
That silly woman was ridiculous but just shows how some people think. Her running by me that close could have been deliberate, maybe she doesn't like the trekkers getting in the way on "her" path! Ha! Cheers, Warren :)
Tough day, excellent adventure! I am going to take up with National Trust their description of Devil's Dyke... on their website they say it is the "longest and widest dry valley in the UK" - well Cwm Idwal in Wales is half a mile longer, and both Streatley Warren and Devil's Punchbowl in the Berkshire Downs are a mile longer! Naturally, my OCD has kicked in and I have contacted them....
I hadn't spotted the reference to the "longest and widest" detail but how can they get away with saying that if it's clearly not true! I will be interested in what you find out in your liaison with them! Cheers, Warren :)
Warren, if I’d have seen an old boy staggering about, waving his arms about and spouting useless facts I’d have given him a really wide berth 😂😜 joking aside, some people are really funny - she had the whole of the downs, and that section is massively wide, why on earth did she need to brush past you ???? Some people, eh ?
I did rather get carried away sometimes with my chatter. It was good fun and a laugh most of the time. But that silly runner - she had loads of space to pass me as you saw. Thank you for following along and your support. Cheers, Warren :)
Square bales: Easier to handle: They are typically smaller and lighter (around 40-60 pounds), making them easier for one person to lift and stack1. Efficient storage: Their uniform shape allows for dense stacking, which is great for maximizing storage space in barns1. Portion control: Ideal for smaller farms or operations where precise portions of hay are needed for feeding1. Round bales: Larger size: These bales can weigh up to 1000 pounds and are more suited for large-scale operations1. Weather resistance: Often wrapped in plastic, they are better protected from moisture, making them suitable for outdoor storage1. Feeding convenience: Their shape allows livestock to feed from all sides, which is beneficial for larger herds1. Both types have their pros and cons, and the choice often comes down to the specific requirements of the farm and the available equipment2.
Thanks for part 5 of this walk. Cheers Evo.
We had a good day - but it was a long walk! Thanks for watching and following the series. Cheers, Warren :)

Ahh, makes sense! Okay then, so, why domino-shaped and not sugar-lump full square shaped?
Tough day at the office guys. Made better I guess by the beautiful day and awesome scenery. Keep on hiking nearly there. Bushyboy Oz
There were some fantastic views for sure. We managed the long section and enjoyed a beer at the YHA too! Cheers, Warren :)
That was a long day, watching that gave me shades of ptsd! Those last few miles were really hard.
Yep, that was a long day, but we made it to the YHA in time for our meal. The weather was lovely and the views were fab! Cheers mate, Warren :)
That biker nearly had ya Dan!
@@WildCamper 😂 yep
Just finished watching,excellent
Thank you for following along with this more lengthy stretch of our trip. We had a great day. Cheers, Warren :)

@@Linleys Yeah, it's known that people think over 60,000 thoughts a day - many of those are competitive Warren. Humans are a strange breed.

That all makes sense to me, thanks for the notes, not that I could lift one of the square ones! Ha ;)
