Bale storage of livestock feed is very important

All forage packaged in large round bales benefits from protection and proper storage methods. Producers are encouraged to consider the cost-benefit ratio of providing this protection. Factors to consider include the value of the hay, expected storage losses, local environmental conditions, the cost of providing protection and how long the hay will be stored before feeding. At the very least, it may be worthwhile to restack or relocate your hay supply according to the best practices described.
