Moreover, Hay has the potential of making you far more money if used either to create silage or to feed your Cows, as explained below. The work involved does not justify the costs of the equipment, nor the amount of work put into it. Note that this is one of the least lucrative methods of gaining money from Hay. This is only about $30 more than an equivalent volume of simple Grass. Drive any vehicle carrying Hay bales right up to the door, to automatically sell your Hay.Ī single bale of Hay sells for about $430. It is a brown barn with an open door, that has straw visibly spread out on the ground in front of the door. In both Bjornholm and Westbridge Hills, there are specific locations where Hay bales may be sold.

Also, round hay bales are the only way to create "baled" silage. However, for maximum effectiveness, you may prefer to deliberately sow a small field with Grass in order to be able to collect large amounts of it rapidly.

Since Grass grows pretty much all over the map and does not need to be resowed, Hay is essentially free. However, it can pay for itself very rapidly, as explained further down this article. Although cheap equipment can be purchased for each of these tasks, it is still somewhat expensive to get into Hay. The minimum machinery required for this process is a small Tractor, a Mower, a Tedder, a Bale Trailer, and either a Front Loader or Bale Loader to pick the bales up from the field. ( Note again that Hay cannot be picked up in loose form - since that simply creates Grass). This should allow you to distinguish between them at a glance (although with Round Bales, that may be more difficult, especially at a distance, as the colors are harder to notice).

Hay Bales are green, as opposed to Straw Bales, which are yellow.
