Application of mechanization in rice straw collection

Rolling and releasing bales in the field requires transportation to move the straw to a central collection point, such as the edge of the field. This type of rice straw baler cannot operate on wet fields because the tires frequently bog down in the mud. Furthermore, straw bales released on the field will get muddy, thereby reducing the quality of the straw.

Baler Types and Mechanisms

• Round Balers: In the compression chamber, continuously rotating rollers compress the straw into cylindrical bales. The machine must pause during operation to tie the twine and eject the finished bale.
• Square Balers: This machine works by continuously compressing straw in the compacting chamber and ejecting the compacted bales without needing to stop the forward motion.
