Seriously a well thought out system that will stand up to years and years of use. Also providing employment to locals putting food on the table! I will always be thankful to the Snowden’s for this product! Best part is it’s recycling plastics instead of being buried in landfill can’t really go wrong! We need more people like this in the world! Ingenuity at its best!!!
about 10 years ago I used second hand rubber cattle mats to do this but I can see these are much better running water clear of the stack! Great idea and good luck selling them
Thank you for posting!
so many wonderfull things coming out of australia
I like the look of this, it's a good idea
Thats a good idea!
Nice work👍👍👍👌💐
Good video
Remedial question: This is to protect the hay bales from rain, right?
Bellissimo video 🌈
Super pomysł
Works great in the desert where it never rains! Lol

Hay Caps were invented in Australia. You can contact us via www.haycap.com.au or email us info@haycap.com.au
I want to bye Alfalfa Hay please advise,
Hay Making
what happens when rain comes from the side lol?
The rain that hits the side of the stack, as it always does depending on the wind direction, doesn't penetrate the bale due to the bales density, and gravity. Once the end of the bale is wet the continuing rain will just drip down. The ends of the bale will dry out over the following days. The rain that does the damage in big square bales of hay is the rain that goes into the top of the bale. This water can penetrate all the way down through the stack of hay. The water stays in the bale and reacts with the hay causing loss of food value, mould, heat and sometimes spontaneous combustion.
i would like to try this on a couple of farms!! do you ship to the united states? and would you be willing to send me some to show off on my You Tube channel? onelonlyfarmer@yahoo.com in my email.
onelonleyfarmer did you ever hear from this guy or his company? If you did and tried it out how did they work for you?
I dont see this working in the UK with our rain & 120mph winds.
It probably would create a lot of problems in northern norway by the coast too. 😉
Here it can rain and snow and be frezing often in same day(s) is a low-high pressure system passes fast.
It would turn a hay stack in to an ICE SCULPTURE. HEHE

Why not make Round Bales, no need to cover 🤔
Hay biles in Australia but hay bales in the rest of the world.
Why would you want to stack it in the field?
Take it to a pole barn so when it rains it won't get wet.
Maybe this is for demo purposes. :-)
Not everyone has barn storage, which is why so many people use round bales, because you can store round bales outside. This gives more options.
If you store the bails outside do not stack them one on another.
I tried that one time I had so much hay and when it rained the water from the top bails ran down and soaked the bottom bails where they met. I had a lot of hay ruined.
Down here in Texas we have Coastal Bermuda grass is the best for hay. You have to put a lot of fertilizer on the grass to get a good cutting. If I had to do again I would plant Johnson Grass. That stuff will grow out of highway cracks. It has large broad leaves and makes a lot of seeds.
If you store round bales outside you wouldn't stack them, you'd place them on the ground with gaps between them, you'll lose maybe the outside inch, the rest is fine. It's the original reason round bales became so popular, because they don't need barn storage!
OK, barns can be expensive. The hay we used to put up was the small square bails weighting anywhere from 60-70lbs.
I sure enjoy watching hay bailing. In my younger days we did a lot of that for winter feed. The art of bailing hay really has come a long way over the decades.
I remember my dad used to buy peanut hay. The cows loved it as well as the chickens would run out in the pasture to get the little peanuts !
Round bales aren't as shipper friendly as large square. I use round bales but I don't ship anything, I use all I produce.

When rain comes direct from heaven its ok. ....but from side the hay get wet....Not 100% perfect
Rain doesn't penetrate the bales from the side of the stack due to the density of the bales & how the bales are packed in the baler. Once the sides are wet the water just drips down the side of the stack. You end up with only an inch staining on the sides. The rain that does all the damage in big square bales is the rain that goes into the top of the bale.
@@HayCapTocumwalthanks for the answer....
@@h.n.602 There is more reasons to stack in the field. Square bales should be stacked within one day, especially if the weather is not secure. It eliminates the need to immediately transport it to where it will be used. Hay stacked in the field can evaporate some excess moisture, especially if it is stacked in an angle to the wind and with a couple of inches between the bales. MS
