HAY BALING

Mornington Peninsula Hay Baling Services by Pat Morrissey

Our Hay Baling FAQ section answers the most common questions about keeping your hay in top condition.

From understanding why bales can go mouldy, to learning how inoculants like Hay King and Silage King protect your feed, we cover everything you need to know. We also explain how to spot overly dry or dusty bales, and highlight the difference between good and poor hay baling practices. These tips help you save valuable feed, reduce nutrient loss, and make the most of your harvest.

Why have my hay bales gone mouldy?

Hay bales can go mouldy if moisture levels weren’t controlled correctly during baling or storage. Using inoculants like Hay King helps prevent mould and preserves feed quality.

How can I prevent silage from going mouldy?

Silage is especially prone to spoilage if not managed properly. Silage King inoculants act as a preventative measure, keeping valuable feed safe and nutrient-rich.

What are hay inoculants and do I need them?

Hay inoculants are specially formulated products that help preserve feed by controlling fermentation. Many contractors skip them, but they can make a big difference in preventing nutrient loss and maintaining bale quality.

What’s the difference between good hay baling and bad hay baling?

Good hay baling comes down to precision, timing, and the use of inoculants. Poorly baled hay can crumble, dust, or lose nutrients quickly, while proper baling maximises yield and feed quality.

How do I know if my hay bales are too dry?

Signs of overly dry hay include crumbling, excessive dust, and bales falling apart—leading to significant nutrient and tonnage loss.

Why are my hay bales so dusty and falling apart?

Dusty, fragile bales usually indicate the hay was baled too dry. Using the right moisture levels and inoculants can prevent this problem.
