 I ran a lot of straw through a yard debris shredder.  Noisy & messy, =
but it produced a lot of chopped straw.

Also, I found that for earthen plasters on straw bale, I wanted the =
chopped straw to be a little longer than you might expect.  I run it =
through a one inch mesh screen - tossing out what doesn't easily pass =
through.
