- WONDERING WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IS BETWEEN STRAW AND HAY?
- STRAW IS A STALK AND IS USUALLY THE WASTE PRODUCT OF WHEAT. STRAW IS NUTRITIONALLY POOR AND IS FAR LESS EXPENSIVE THAN HAY AND IS USUALLY USED AS ANIMAL BEDDING BECAUSE IT HOLDS HEAT AND IS ABSORBENT. IT IS ALSO USED AS A GROUND COVERING FOR SEEDS BECAUSE IT HELPS DETER ANIMALS AND AS IT DECOMPOSES, IT GIVES IT'S NUTRIENTS TO THE SEEDS. IF HAY IS USED, IT WILL SPROUT INTO WHEAT, AND YOU DON'T WANT YOUR SEEDS TO HAVE TO COMPETE WITH THE GROWING HAY. HAY IS USED AS FOOD FOR ANIMALS BECAUSE IT IS FULL OF NUTRIENTS AND SEEDS. HAY IS STILL LIVING AND CHANGING. STRAW IS STAGNANT, LEFT TO DRY OUT IN THE FIELDS LONG AFTER THE HAY HAS BEEN BALED AND STORED.
- QUALITY HAY IS GREEN IN COLOR
