[QUOTE="houstoncutter, post: 174263, member: 807"] Rye grass makes fantastic hay, but your are looking at a couple of problems. It has a lot of moisture in it, so it takes a while to dry after cutting.......think about spring showers that you might be getting at bailing time. Bales, whether round or square do not stand up to rain very well. You will have to store em. I have only been able to bale my grass 3 times in the last 25 years, but when I was able, I had hay that would rival high quality alfalfa... I know some of the producers in cental Texas bale it on a regular basis as their weather patterns in the spring are more conducieve to it.... maybe they can offer some tips . Good luck [/QUOTE]
