The short answer is – YES, but for quality Hay.
You’ve heard us say it before, livestock eat 365 days a year. Our country needs Hay to be made, but not just any Hay – good quality Hay.
There is typically always a market for Hay that meets the below requirements:
Quality Assured Product
» Buyers are interested in knowing the quality of your Hay before they buy it. They want to know the visual grade, the Feed Test values and see good quality photos! Having those 3 things done greatly assists in the marketing and moving of Hay, all the while helping to maximize returns.
High-Quality Hay
» We unpack on Page 30 what high-quality Hay really looks like when it comes to your Visual and Feed Testing parameters.
Please note that we are not expecting there to be a big market for Hay off the paddock or stored in the paddock, this is typical to most years (drought excluded)
High-Density Bales
» We’re talking 600+ kgs per bale. Australia is a vast country with an increasingly variable climate. Hay is being moved over large distances and using a High- Density baler helps to minimise the freight cost and increase the potential options and regions of marketing your Hay.
