A bale-sheathing device is provided for placing a tubular plastics sheath around bales of straw, grass, hay or silage, in order to facilitate chemical treatment of the latter. The bale-sheathing device includes a mobile sheath-carrying structure for supporting and holding open an axially closed-up portion of the sheath in a manner enabling this closed-up portion to be progressively pulled out rearwardly off the sheath-carrying structure. The sheath-carrying structure is forwardly provided with means, such as a pair of inclined guides, for lifting up a bale to be sheathed and guiding it through the closed-up portion of the sheath as the device is advanced. The bale-sheathng device enables a sheath to be passed around each successive bale of a row of juxtaposed bales without having to drag the bale over the sheath or the sheath under the bales.
