What happens here
Before driving the unroller into the pasture where the cattle are, load a hay bale onto the unroller. Drive the ATV with the loaded unroller to the cattle. Once near the cattle, prepare to unroll the hay bale by carefully cutting and removing the string or netting that holds the bale together. It is crucial to remove all the string to prevent cattle from ingesting it, which can cause serious health issues.
Goal: Distribute hay bales safely and efficiently to the cattle.
