What is the purpose of a crop cutter and baler?

Crop cutters and balers were developed to make the cutting and baling of hay a simple task. The crop cutter and baler chops the crop and feeds it into the baler section. The baler then compresses the hay and feeds it out in the form of a compact square or cylindrical bale that can be easily handled or transported.
