Why the Right Baler Matters for your Farm
Round or square, fixed chamber or variable, the right baler depends on what you're baling, how you need to handle it afterwards, and the scale of the job. Silage calls for a tight, dense bale that ferments well, while straw and hay need to stack, store and travel without falling apart.
Massey Ferguson's range covers straightforward fixed chamber balers suited to family farms through to variable chamber and large square balers built for contractors and bigger acreages. Our grassland machinery experts can help you match chamber type, bale size and output to what you're producing.
Massey Ferguson Round Balers
Round balers are a versatile, cost-effective choice, and the cylindrical bale shape makes stacking and handling straightforward. Massey Ferguson's RB Series spans fixed chamber and variable chamber models.

Variable Chamber Round Balers
The MF RB 4160V and 4180V share a common platform and let you adjust bale diameter from 0.90m up to 1.60m or 1.80m respectively, so you can vary bale size within the same machine.
4160V Classic | 4160V Xtra | 4180V Classic | 4180V Xtra | |

Camless pick-up: five tine bars spaced 64mm apart for a smoother, higher-capacity feed with less maintenance.
Xtra specification: adds the Xtracut cutter, in 13, 17 or 25 knives, and Hydroflexcontrol blockage protection for heavier crops and contracting work.

Scot Agri supplies the full Massey Ferguson baler range, covering five categories: fixed chamber round balers, variable chamber round balers, small square balers, large square balers and baler wrappers.
Fixed chamber round balers: the MF RB 3130 F range, available as Classic, Xtra and Protec specifications, all producing a consistent 1.25m diameter, 1.5m³ bale. The Xtra adds an Xtracut cutter (13, 17 or 25 knives) and Hydroflexcontrol blockage protection for contracting use, while the Protec combines baling and wrapping in a single pass.
Variable chamber round balers: the MF RB 4160V and RB 4180V, which adjust bale diameter from 0.90m up to 1.60m or 1.80m respectively, each in Classic and Xtra specifications. Bale chamber volume is 2.48m³ on the 4160V and 3.15m³ on the 4180V.
Small square balers: the MF 1842S, a high-capacity baler producing a 457 x 356mm bale. It uses an OptiForm bale chamber for up to 20% extra density and a 1.98m working width pick-up for high-capacity, gentle feeding.
Large square balers: the MF 2200 Series, five models across four bale sizes, from the MF 2233 (80 x 90cm) up to the MF 2244 (120 x 130cm), available with a Packer or ProCut chopping configuration on most models.
Baler wrappers: the MF TW 130 and MF TW 160 trailed wrappers, handling bales up to 1.30m/1,000kg and 1.60m/1,250kg respectively.
Our team can talk you through the full range and help you match a baler, or a baler and wrapper combination, to your operation.
For silage, the right baler is one that chops the crop as it bales and gets bales wrapped quickly, since consistent density and a tight, undamaged wrap are what drive good fermentation.
A cutter unit matters most: Massey Ferguson's Xtracut cutter, available with 13, 17 or 25 knives on the fixed chamber RB 3130 F Xtra and Protec, and the variable chamber RB 4160V/4180V Xtra, chops the crop as it's baled. This improves fermentation and palatability, reduces waste at feeding, and achieves greater density, which cuts haulage and wrapping costs.
For smaller farms and lower output: the MF RB 3130 F Xtra, a fixed chamber baler producing a consistent 1.25m, 1.5m³ bale every time, paired with the MF TW 130 wrapper (bales up to 1.30m, 1,000kg) as a separate operation, is a straightforward, cost-effective set-up for family farms baling their own silage.
For larger scale or commercial silage operations: the MF RB 3130 F Protec combines baling and wrapping in a single pass, so bales are protected from the weather the moment they're formed, cutting tractor and labour requirements during a busy silage season. For farms wanting flexible bale sizes, the variable chamber MF RB 4160V or 4180V Xtra, built around the Constant Pressure System for consistent density at any diameter, suits higher throughput, paired with the higher-capacity MF TW 160 wrapper (bales up to 1.60m, 1,250kg) if baling and wrapping separately.
Our team can talk through your acreage, number of cuts and tractor power to help you match the right combination.
Yes. As an official Massey Ferguson dealer, Scot Agri provides genuine parts, manufacturer-standard servicing and backup support for the full baler range, including priority support during baling season when every day in the field counts.
In-season and field support: our technicians can carry out field servicing and repairs during baling and silage season, so a breakdown doesn't cost you the weather window. Contact your nearest depot directly if you need urgent support.
Genuine parts: we hold genuine Massey Ferguson parts for the baler range, from wear items like knives, belts and net to major components, so repairs are done to manufacturer standard rather than with aftermarket substitutes.
Trained specialists: our technicians are trained to Massey Ferguson's standards and work on the baler range day in, day out, so they know the common issues and how to get a machine back in the field quickly.
Depots and coverage: Massey Ferguson balers are serviced from our Forfar and Huntly depots, covering Angus, Aberdeenshire and Scotland's key grassland and arable areas.
As an official Massey Ferguson dealer, we back every sale with this level of support. Contact your nearest depot to discuss servicing or arrange a health check ahead of the season.
A fixed chamber baler always produces the same size of bale, while a variable chamber baler lets you adjust bale diameter to suit the crop and how you'll handle it. Both use the same basic principle of rolling the crop into a round bale, but how each is built changes what it's best suited to.
Fixed chamber balers: the MF RB 3130 F range always produces a 1.25m diameter, 1.5m³ bale, formed in a chamber with 18 Powergrip rollers for consistent shape and density. It's the mechanically simpler of the two, weighing from 3,000kg (Classic) and needing as little as 52kW/70hp.
Benefits of fixed chamber: every bale comes out the same size, which makes handling, stacking and transport straightforward and predictable, and the simpler mechanism means a lower power requirement and typically a lower cost.
Drawbacks of fixed chamber: there's no flexibility on bale size. You can't make a smaller bale for a light crop or a bigger one to cut down handling on a heavy crop, the chamber only produces the one diameter.
Variable chamber balers: the MF RB 4160V and RB 4180V adjust bale diameter from 0.90m up to 1.60m or 1.80m respectively, using the Constant Pressure System (a combination of spring and hydraulic pressure) to keep density consistent from the core outwards, whatever diameter you've chosen. They're heavier, from around 3,690kg, and need more power, from 60kW/80hp upwards.
Benefits of variable chamber: you can match bale size to the crop and how it'll be handled, smaller bales for light straw or where storage and handling favour it, right up to large bales for bulk silage or hay, without any compromise on density or shape at whatever size you choose.
Drawbacks of variable chamber: the extra flexibility comes with a heavier, more complex machine, a higher power requirement, and typically a higher cost than a fixed chamber baler of similar output.
Where they fit best: a fixed chamber baler suits family farms and straightforward hay or straw baling, where consistent, easy-to-handle bales matter more than flexibility. A variable chamber baler suits farms and contractors handling a range of crops or conditions, or anyone who wants to match bale size to a specific storage, feeding or transport set-up.
If you're weighing up the two, our team can talk through what you're baling, how you store and handle it afterwards, and your tractor's power to help you choose.
