Abstract

Small bunches of baleable material are formed into self-sustaining tied small bales as the material is fed to a large container. A plurality of the small bales filling the container are tied into a self-sustaining large bale. Untying a large bale from storage produces a plurality of easily handled tied small bales instead of a large mass of loose material.
