Versatility
The John Deere 450M baler is designed to handle both dry hay and silage, making it adaptable to the varied climate conditions found across Texas ranches. From blistering summers to mild winters, this baler is ready for whatever you throw its way.
Its MegaWide Plus Pickup system on the 450M MegaWide model, combined with MegaTough pickup teeth and a spiral rotor-feed system, allows efficient pickup of large, heavy windrows—even in tough or uneven field conditions typical of Texas pastures.
Productivity and Efficiency
The 450M can create bales weighing up to 1,100 pounds and ranging from 35 to 60 inches in size, maximizing the volume of hay per bale and reducing the number of bales needed for large herds.
Its high-capacity feed system gives you faster baling, letting ranchers cover more acres in less time.

Consistent Bale Quality
Consistency is paramount when it comes to a good-quality hay bale, and the 450M produces consistently excellent bales. It produces consistent, well-shaped bales that store and feed efficiently. Additional consistency features like its diamond-tread belts reduce chaffing and slippage. This further ensures bale quality and minimizes crop loss during baling.
Ease of Use
The baler is very user-friendly, especially to those who may not be familiar with John Deere balers. The BaleTrak Pro feature monitors for automatic electric ties. The V-belt-driven pickup and self-adjusting system helps to minimize equipment downtime and also simplifies adjustments in the field, so you can spend more time working and less time fidgeting with controls.
Maintenance
The 450M also features an improved service point access, which helps service technicians to fix and maintain the baler, which is super important for busy ranchers looking to minimize downtime.
Tractor Compatibility
The 450M baler has a minimum PTO horsepower requirement of 55, making it widely compatible with many popular utility tractor models. The MegaWide model requires a minimum of 80 horsepower for tractor operation. Most of the John Deere 5 and 6 Series tractors can pull and operate the 450M baler, just check with the Tellus Equipment team to make sure it's compatible with your machine.
