A bale processor (10) of a type for tearing apart a bale of forage material into filamentary material includes a shredder rotor (13) with blades that remove filamentary portions of the bale and delivers such filamentary material directly to a multiple fan blower (14a/14b) for blowing such filamentary material directly to and out of a delivery chute (15). An independent dual discharge feature permits discharge out of either side and/or one or more blowers placed closer to the shredder rotor can be used independently of the dual discharge feature and the multiple fan blower feature.
