Four Distinct Hay Making Methods Described by USDA
The United States Department of Agriculture outlines four hay making systems. Hand loading, common in older East farms, uses minimal gear but suffers heavy labor. Hay loaders boost capacity about 80 percent but require hard wagon work and are uneven-ground dependent. Push rake and stacker methods cover wide western regions, using horse power to assemble hay onto stacks. Field baling from windrows, increasingly adopted in the West and South, saves time but requires right conditions to avoid spoilage and moisture issues.
