The difference between hay and haylage is the amount of drying time and how much moisture content is left behind. Hay has a moisture content 15% and below. Haylage goes up to 50% moisture but is usually around 30-35%. This also means it has higher sugars than hay and is not recommended for any animals that is sensitive to a high sugar content.

Every year we make small bale hay. We have sadly had to stop delivering it due to ill health and the requirement for manual handling. We do, however still allow for collections.

We also make wrapped hay and haylage. These bales are 4ft 6 by 80cm x 70cm and have between 8-10 small bales in them. We deliver these in 3 bale deliveries, or you are welcome to collect them. Collection will require a open backed vehicle or trailer.

If you’re interested in either of these, please contact Richard on 07775 744763. He prefers phone calls, as texts and emails may have to wait until either of us have time to deal with them.
