[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1232475, member: 18809"] My concern would be more than just detergent. There is a huge poultry processing facility not far and they take the water from the processing of the birds and spray it on big hay fields with an irrigation system. That hay, when cut and dried, has a very waxy feeling to it, like the fat stays on the leaves (from the blood). I am not sure how well the cattle will eat that (I have never asked, I think they ship the bales out of state because they contract out the hay every year). [/QUOTE]
