[QUOTE="Banker729, post: 1152187, member: 22393"] :help: I have a problem on my hands. We have a hay crew mow, rake and bale our hay; been the same crew for a few years now. I'm not sure what the heck went on, but i got our hay home this weekend and noticed some of the bales seemed warm and wet. I bought a moisture/temp probe. All 135 round bales of fescue & brome are 25%+ moisture and some are off the charts on the probe (it maxes out at 45%). The majority are probably in the 30-40% range. Please fire off with what you would do with the three ranges of high moisture hay. 20-29% 30-39% 40%+ I am thinking about making haylage out of the 30% and higher ones but have absolutely no clue what to do with the ones under 30%... Thank you in advance, and I know... the hay crew needs dealt with but that is another day. I need to deal with high moisture hay right now. [/QUOTE]
