Hay can be baled at higher moisture & low dry matter content and then wrapped in plastic to omit oxygen. This allows the hay to ferment inside to become what is known as silage. It can be stored this way for many months.<br /><br />We can bale hay successfully in summer because of our hot dry temperatures. Many places can't get the grass/alfalfa dry enough to make hay. So their option is to bale at a higher moisture content and wrap up.CountryMumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14761724941259576940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6237865919006017597.post-82810428713778695922016-02-18T09:22:16.352+11:002016-02-18T09:22:16.352+11:00Thanks farmers, a lot of straw.Thanks farmers, a lot of straw.Bob Bushellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07819577478571292055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6237865919006017597.post-50944017203504111532016-02-18T08:33:52.716+11:002016-02-18T08:33:52.716+11:00Totally impressed, by the size of the field and ba...Totally impressed, by the size of the field and bales, machinery, and your invention.
