    Biodegradable Net Wrap

    Does it exist? Won't use regular wrap so have been stuck with sisal. It would seem that biodegradable wrap would be the ultimate.

      Thanks Sean. It looks like the students wrap would be a substitute for plastic wrap. I wonder if they will be able to come up with a net wrap type. It would be great if they could.
      Don't think I will start holding my breath yet.

        Think there is a net wrap already. Thought it was developed by a group of UK students. Market development is still in its infancy.

          You would think a little hook that would grab hay and spin...making a twine as you go....when you are trying to untangle hay around a spindle or shaft...it seems unbreakable.
          Hemp....something...anything!!! Nothing more maddening than trying to take twine off in winter.....that's why I try to do in fall...and this year in bales grazing, never did put twine on...just used a baler as a buncher.
