On one of our hay sampling visits this afternoon, we were checking some wheat that had been dry-rolled this spring. At least a couple of the bales looked like the one on top. This bale was BURNT on the inside - straight char. These bales were fortunately being stored outside, because in a barn they could have likely caught fire. The grower had tried to keep the hay at a dry enough moisture, but small grains, especially if they have developing seed heads, can store alot of energy for microbes to start working and generating lots of heat.

You can find more information about proper hay production and storage and how to prevent this in the article below from our UGA Forage Team Blog.
