I’ve always wondered how to properly stack hay and it seems everyone has their own way and opinion. Thank you for this article.
But, I just want to ask for some clarification. The article says to start the stack with the cut end up (so strings are facing to the side, correct?). Then it says to lay the second row with strings facing up (on it’s side). And you alternate the rows, say first row the bales are long-ways east and west, then second row bales are long-ways north and south, then third row east to west again, etc., etc.) Am I correct so far?
So now for the clarification I’d like… The pics in the article, the first one is hard to tell, but the second shows the bales stacked with the strings facing to the side on all the rows.
Is this the correct way or is it the way I described earlier?
Thanks so much for the info.
Sincerely,
Cindy Kirk
