1. The difference is the baler. Here in Ohio, it's done both ways.
Generally, the bales weigh 50-70 pounds depending on water content, size and how tightly they're bound. Rolls usually are in the 1000-1200 pound range and are moved by machinery.

There are differences in feeding systems which make one or the other preferable, too.
