[QUOTE="novatech, post: 754598, member: 5494"] I pulled this from something I Googled up. How many years it woul take would also depend a lot on how much the hay cost to produce. High quality hay will decompose faster without protection. So if you are spending the money on fertilizer it would make sense to protect the investment. But if you are just raising filler hay then your not loosing much anyway. To answer your question, fertilizer on hay would be the fastest payback if you protected it.(IMO) I am not sure anyone can calculate the extra years gained by protecting your equipment in a shed as vs. leaving out in the rain but I would think one could gain a few extra years on that not so cheap hay equipment, planters, shredders, etc. [/QUOTE]
