Our Hay Bale Unroller in Action

This is the maiden voyage of our hay bale unroller. I got the idea of this contraption from a brilliant farmer by the name of Greg Judy and we built one right here on the ranch. The unroller allows us to roll out hay bales for the bison using only a fourwheeler. This has several benefits. Unrolling a bale spreads the hay over a large area so all the bison can get to it at the same time without fighting. With the hay spread out, the bison manure and urine is spread over a large area. Some of the hay is trampled and left on the ground to feed soil biology and protect any bare soil. Lastly, we can get the bale moved and unrolled with just a fourwheeler, limiting our impact on the pasture.
