Last week we tried something that is starting to catch on in this part of the province. We raked last fall's corn stalks into windrows and rolled them up with the round baler.

They seemed to break down enough over the winter that they didn't hurt the old New Holland side rake that I still use, other than having to replace a handful of teeth.

The stalks break up pretty fine and make better bedding than wheat or maybe even barley straw. Awfully dusty, though. Got about 6 - 4x5's per acre.
