I have bought round bales of hay for my horses from several sources this year. From 2 of them the hay was quite dusty, now I have found one with "clean" hay. How does the dust get in some hay but not in others. One of the sellers is a local farmer & in recent years his hay was good & clean but this year it is quite dusty.
OK just saw the other posts on dust. Some just complaining about it when they cut but one about dusty bales. I guess somehow my local guy either changed his settings on the mower or it was too dry when he baled it. However it has been an extreamly wet season this year & he was having trouble finding enough good days in a row to get in the fields.. his hay is Tifton 85 could it be waxy?? The clean hay I just got is coastal bahia is it less/non waxy??
