Hay in a Day - Part 2

Building a rack of loose hay -- demonstrated by Faye Vido. The grass that was mown in the morning, spread and raked over to dry during the day, and consolidated before the evening dew. The hay usually stays on this rack only long enough to finish the curing process, before the hay is moved into the barn for storage, although we sometimes leave them in the field all season.

This brings back a lot of memories of my neighbor and his family. I used to help when I could. No expensive equipment. No fuel costs. No grease and oil. No maintenance or replacement parts to buy. No depreciation. No noise..... Some hard work, but gratifying. A good way to live off the land....

[@p8riot]

Excellent! I started making my own hay using a European scythe, home made hay rake, and hay racks several years ago when hay prices here in central Virginia reached $10 a bale. I figure if my animals can eat it fresh during the growing season, then they can eat it during the in between times as well. Saves me a bunch of money, and I get a lot of good exercise and fresh air to boot. I can cut, ted, and stack a half acre a day by myself.

[@DeniseSkidmore]

A couple people asked about the point of the rack. This hay has cured only one day rather than the typical 3. If put directly into the barn it could rot and cause a fire. You can see as she stacks she is carefully keeping the bottom rows from touching the ground, and at the end she shows off the hollow beneath. This air circulation allows the hay to continue drying on the rack, while the shape of the heap protects the under layers from the sunlight and rain damage it would get while spread out on the field.

Sounds like you may have read "The Ploughman's Folly" Denise.

[@kaivido]

In places where kangaroos wander, fresh is better. However, here in NB, Canada, domesticated animals need hay or silage for the 5-7 months where grazing in the field is not possible, due to frost and snow. So we make the winter's food for our animals during the summer months while the grass is growing. Appreciate your curiosity. Cheers!

[@MichaelCarter]

That is a perfect bit of information to use in Ruth Stout's mulch garden method. That rack is of interest; is it about 2 or 3 feet wide? And it is all done in one day. That is great. I've cut hay with a Scythe but never stood it up like that.

[@freedomwoodgasandoffgridin8925]

[@YamiKisara]

Lol most people in the comments are so out of place here - this is how it's been done for centuries! Why would you even need shoes or sleeves? You're stepping on fresh ground and it's not like the hay's gonna hurt you lol, bunch of city rats I suppose? Reminds me of my childhood, both part 1 and part 2, this was always lots of fun, though we would let the hay dry on the ground for two or three days, rather than doing it all in one day. Playing in the piles of hay or having sleepovers in the barn on the fresh hay was always great fun too. Farming is a hard job, but (especially done oldschool like here) one of the most rewarding and stressfree ones!

[@Mittzie]

YamiKisara depends on the largely on the type of grass used, some varieties have hard stems that hurt like a SOB to step on. Others are softer making bare footing it easier, also depends on when it was cut for some varieties.

[@vivianking8143]

Amazing, wonderful, a needful to get back to this work ethic. I would like to see how the rack was made. Thanks for sharing this.

[@allonesame6467]

this hay was cut perhaps before the seed heads could make pollen, if in fact they let seed heads grow. Seed heads grow on stems which are difficult to cut with a sythe. Also, stems are the devil to walk on bare foot, so I suspect that these folks sythe the grass before stems form. So, in other videos one can see that the men are cutting blades of grass, therefore pollen is minimal and the grassy hay dries more quickly than stemmy hay. MMM smells good too. Good work!

[@theburnhams2925]

Much of the nutritive value of the hay is lost if allowed to go to seed. Also, lower digestibility once the seed head/stalk hardens off. Much wiser to garner several higher-quality harvests than just waiting for "bulk" to form. I understand that sometimes you can't "get to it" in time---other jobs sometimes prevent the timely cutting of the hay....but by then it's no longer "hay" just "straw." (and yes, there IS a difference---which explains the use of separate terms...) But then, the "Round Toit" is the rarest form of currency on most farms....pls don't ask how I know....

[@michelleperry5906]

I love this video! for those with hay fever wear a mask and ichy? showers fix that lol. Come on people! She completed the stack in under 10 min. It takes longer to pick up the machine made bales and throw on a trailer oh and more sweat and sore muscles then still have to haul those 60-100lb bales into barn. Dont know about you but when Im done im still sneezing and ichy in need of shower lol so why not use the 10 minute version for small field. It takes that long to set up equipment to bale already prepared hay in a field. Also equipment isnt cost effective for a small homestead farm. No farmer is scared of hard work. So weather you are a farmer with large amounts of land that requires equipment to make your farm cost effective or a small Homestead farmer who chooses 2 hand Farm to make there Farm cost effective it's no less no more physically demanding to do either way. I love farming and the more I do for myself the better I feel. adding equipment has caused more stress with the repairs and upkeep on my small farm so I prefer this ladies video as an alternative. but that's just me.

[@DeniseSkidmore]

On a very small scale hand harvesting is economical. Even if I was mechanically inclined enough to fix up old used equipment, I'd need 3 grand or so, and then there is a lot of maintenance and parts that will go into that. If I want to buy new baling equipment, I would spend 5 digits easily. The loose hay if done properly also suffers less leaf shatter then baled and can have a higher feed value. Give your animals a taste test, they generally will prefer loose hay to baled. A good resource for learning about loose hay is "Haying With Horses" Lots of good info there about hay in general, not matter what equipment you use to get the job done.

[@DeniseSkidmore]

Silage is hay baled before it is dry and allowed to ferment with little oxygen present. I was not referring to silage. Silage is very difficult to do on a small scale.

[@DeniseSkidmore]

Every time dry hay is handled, there is some leaf breaking. The leaves can shatter and fall off. The leaves are more nutritious than stems Hand raking is more gentle than ground driven rakes, which is more gentle than pto rakes. Loose hay doesn't get crushed in a baler, another place your leaves can turn into hay dust.

[@DeniseSkidmore]

Just try the taste test or analyze samples. Don't take my word for it if my word doesn't make sense to you. "Haying With Horses" goes into more detail on the subject if you want more info.

[@danhuisjen2092]

Peter Šori You smash the leaves with the baler, so they turn to dust.

[@theburnhams2925]

Another source of info on this topic is Friend Sykes' "Humus and the Farmer" out of print but available. Friend Sykes (a Quaker) claims invention of this type of hay rykke (he calls his invention a "hay stand") which was an improvement over the customary technique of piling hay around a pole planted in the ground (which, while it immobilized the "stack" did not provide any cross-ventilation like his invention did) "Loose" hay is definitely superior to baled or rolled hay---it not only retains more of the leaf-area but it (probably) hasn't been left out over several damp nights collecting dew. Nor has it been "beat to near-death" by a high-speed "circle-cutter" much less "crimped" by a "hay conditioner" (called a "mangle" for good reason...), raked violently-and-at-high-speed by a wheel or side-delivery rake or "teddered" ALL of which are necessary with mechanical haying methods. All of the above are hard on your hay! Quick, "efficient" perhaps, but careless since most hay producers are just going for weight/size/bulk and not feeding their own animals. One commenter mentioned "3 thousand dollars" as a cost of equipping for haying---the actual figure is well over $20,000 (even buying used equipment at auction---from someone else who has already decided "this ain't worth it!") 3k won't even get a single low-power tractor, and a decent 50h.p. tractor that'll run a baler is upwards of $15k very used! There are several multi-thousand-dollar implements required to hay the "modern" way. Something the finance companies learned several generations ago.....play it if you like it---I have (and discovered I didn't, after all) Just KNOW that if yer gonna "play" you're gonna PAY! (and so's your hay...)

[@thefranks8726]

I just watched these two videos and I loved them. So peaceful with only the birds and the sounds of the hay being put up! I was wondering though, how long does the hay stay on the racks? Won't it all blow away in a good thunderstorm? I'm sorry if these are dumb questions, but I've never put up hay before. Thanks!

[@theburnhams2925]

Nope! Very little hay is lost using this method. That hay will be right there until the owner removes it and throws it over the fence to the animals. Sheep can be allowed access to it and they'll be "happy" to eat the nice fresh "taste of summer" right off the rykke! Cows, on the other hand will destroy the pile, rykke and all. It would take quite a wind to overturn this structure---a triangle is a rigid structure, and each rykke comprises four triangles. Notice how widely-spread the "feet" are. Besides, they sink into the ground a bit over time. A hayfield managed in this way is wonderfully productive...no heavy equipment has been driven over it compacting the soil and it may have never been plowed with a moldboard plow (which creates a "hardpan" underneath..) I'd wager good earthworm population there too. These folk 'r' doin' it right---there's much to be said for commitment (and youth!).....hat's off to ya'll.

I have made hay by the old fashioned way and with modern round bales. The old fashioned way used horses that needed to be fed year round, not just during haying time. The only way to get a decent amount of hay in before rain was with a dozen people with forks and rakes. The field that I worked so long ago are now planted with trees.

[@theburnhams2925]

There's no need to move this hay (again...) into a barn. A properly constructed rykke naturally sheds rain, preventing spoilage. Did you notice that she put the "sweepings" on top? The only part of the process I didn't notice was the final downward sweeping of the exterior of the pile to aid in the shedding of winter's rain. Also, while "cute" her passage through the structure served the valuable purpose of ensuring that the air passageway through the pile was open for ventilation. The rykke is customarily oriented to present this pass-thru to the prevailing winds. Like another commenter noted, this lady knows what she's about!

[@DeniseSkidmore]

jksatte When I do this, we do 1/4 of an acre at a time, my hands blister on the rake if I do more at once.

[@jksatte]

Denise Skidmore That has got to be the best exercise. After you cut it do you leave it on the ground to dry before you put it on the rack or is the ground drying just for machines to pick up. This is so interesting to me. I have to admit, I am city lazy but I would be so proud of myself for doing this to provide for my animals, when I get them. How long does it take to do a quarter acre, how long of a break do you need to prevent blistering? Janice

[@DeniseSkidmore]

Yes, we dry it on the ground. We have strong winds at our place so we make hay in about 2.5 days. Most days we have only an hour or two to work between day jobs and nightfall. Day one: cut grass, Day 2, turn grass over, Day 3 turn grass over again, and let it dry as long as possible, pick up before evening dew sets in. When you pick it up off the ground and put it in a pile you decrease the surface area and it takes longer to dry, usually long enough for mold or rot to set in. If you picked it off the ground and put it thinly enough on a rack you could do so right away. The rack stacking in the video is about halfway between those two methods. It's too dense for fresh cut, but airy enough for partially dried hay. I want to try this rack method this year to extend the number of viable hay days. With the rack I could hay any sunny Saturday, cut in the morning rake at noon, and rack in early evening.

[@jksatte]

Denise Skidmore I wonder how much you need for animals. I guess you would measure it in acres. Janice

[@DeniseSkidmore]

That depends on your climate and how often you want to cut. Lots of variables. Check your local extension office to find out what average carrying capacity for pasture is in your area. Hay yield will be similar, you're just doing the harvesting instead of the critters. Most of our feed came from the hay contractor that did the larger areas, but the hand cut stuff was very nice quality and slightly extended the season before we had to break open bales. You could pretty easily harvest by hand enough to give poultry some winter greens and fresh nests, but you might want a backup plan for larger livestock that depend primarily on hay.
