Hay products are dried grasses and legumes that are harvested and stored for animal feed. Common types of hay include timothy hay, alfalfa hay, and orchard grass hay. These products are essential for feeding livestock, especially during winter months when fresh pasture is not available. Hay is typically baled into large or small bundles for easy handling and storage. It provides essential nutrients, including fiber, protein, and vitamins, which are crucial for the health of animals such as horses, cattle, and sheep. Properly stored hay can last for several months, making it a reliable food source.
