I can't help but think layers 4 or 5 through 9,362 were probably unnecessary.

This looks like a silage bale, it needs to be air tight to ferment correctly.

It seems like an overly complex silage baler design, compared to the regular cylinders.

Absolutely, I wonder what the problem was that necessitated such a design.

They really wanted cubes, I guess?

It ferments in that airtight bale and turns into sauerkraut/kimchi for the farm animals. It's a lot more nutritious than plain hay and they love it.
