1 thing that i forgot to mention is all the new balers are either twine or netwrap.now that being said most of the new balers will mess up using sisel twine.just as the older balers would mess up using the plastic.

What? Who told you that??

Well... there has been talk here on TBN of a similar sort.
If you've got an older baler (square) and the knotter and twine disc are getting "tired" and won't consistently tie with plastic - go with sisal - and it'll tie like it's supposed to!
Couldn't vouch for that personally; but, my neighbor has an older, NH or Massey (not exactly sure - he's got it all painted over - totally in red) that won't work with plastic so he's switched over to sisal and it's workin' like new!

Most of my poly twine comes from Canada. There's a few guys that use sisal. They burn it and don't worry about fumes and leftover slag.
The local landfill recycles commercial fishing gear and will also take old plastic twine, too. That's were my twine goes.

My twine goes down the road wrapped around bales ..last i see of it
Which is sometimes the case and exactly the opposite of what bigbull posted.
A good part of my New Holland Certified Technician status was derived from my ability to repair & maintain small square & round balers. I'm not exactly posting out of left field on this topic.
