Abstract

A method of producing bales of agricultural products includes wrapping a bale with a wrapping material, discharging the fully wrapped bale from the press, and forming a new bale, with an intermediate storage of the product in the press retained as short as possible by overlapping of some of the method steps, so that the time required from the beginning of wrapping of a finished bale to the beginning of forming a new bale is very short.
