Southeast Colorado | Good answer. I feel that a moisture monitor will get you into trouble when checking a freshly made bale. They are great for testing a day or two after baling. If you have stem moisture but are baling with no dew your tester will read fine.........and then your bale will melt down and rot. The quickest I have gotten oat hay to dry down is 3 days when crimped. Usually you are looking at 5 to 7 days here. Every climate is different and we are more desert than most. Good luck. Just make sure your stems are sap free. | |
