[QUOTE="Craig Miller, post: 1444712, member: 19296"] From the article: Research has shown that a firm round bale [b]stored outside for one year[/b] loses 22 percent of its dry matter. When stored outside for two years, the same bale loses 25 percent of its dry matter, leaving 75 percent of its original weight for feeding. Most nutrient losses in hay bales occur in the outer portion of the bale. Big difference between inside and outside storage. Auburn showed similar results on the hay they tested stored outside.
