looking for information on high moisture hay
I am a new hay producer who is looking for information about high moisture
alfalfa. Our ground is well suited for alfalfa, but the frequency of rain
will make it difficult to consistently get the hay up without rain. I am
considering putting up medium square bales at about 50% moisture and
putting them in a bag. The dairy producers I will be selling to are 75-200
miles away. Here are some of the questions I have.
1. Can the dairy producer use this the same way he uses alfalfa?
2. How long can it be stored after it is taken out of the bag?
3. How many dairy producers would feed this?
4. How hard will it be sell?
5. What are other problems?
Any other information would be helpful. Thank You!
