These fields need a Bale Out
Successful hay making relies on the grass being thoroughly dried before it is baled. I’m not sure this farmer near Glastonbury baled dry grass but after the wettest June in a hundred years in the UK these big bales were getting very wet!
Big bales wrapped in black plastic film are used to create silage to feed animals over the winter. The polyethylene is tacky and the farmer should have applied several layers to keep the silage sealed. Hopefully, this silage will not get damaged or this could be an expensive flood.
