2026 Vermeer® Round Hay Balers 605N

Out of all our engineering accomplishments, Vermeer is still known best in the agriculture industry for its innovative hay balers. Though the design has evolved over the years to take advantage of new technologies, Vermeer round balers are rugged and reliable and are still a top choice for farmers across the nation.

We all want consistent, square-shouldered bales — but with operation and field condition differences, we don't all put up hay the same way. Whether you're baling high-moisture hay (also known as baleage or silage), dry hay, cornstalks or a combination, Vermeer has a hay baler for all types of operations in various sizes to maximize your productivity and help produce the best quality hay.

Features may include:

The dual-stage bale chamber boosts starting speeds to help ensure tight, smooth bale starts by reducing the chamber size by 50%, allowing hay to turn quicker.

Real-Time Insights

The ISOBUS-compatible E-Link Pro display offers quick access to bale weight and moisture readings, tracks data for 20 customers and 10 fields each, and provides feedback on the Auto Lube greasing system and pickup clutch control.

Tired of replacing pickup teeth? No problem. Rubber-mounted pickup teeth are more durable and last longer than standard pickup teeth.

Seals help reduce dirt ingress to minimize wear, while toolless gauge wheels make height adjustments easy.
