When hay is stored at moisture levels above 20 to 25 per cent, mold growth occurs. Mold causes heating, loss of dry matter and a de- crease in feeding value. in addition, mold in hay can be a health hazard to animals and to farm work- ers. Unfortunately, due to adverse weather condi- tions, farmers are often forced to bale hay at moisture levels which are too high for proper stor- age. The use of a chemical preservative to prevent molding would lessen the dependence of hay-mak- ing on spells of good weather. Hay could then be more easily harvested at a stage when yield of nutrients is greatest, risks of spoilage and leaching in the field would be de- creased and loss of nu- trients caused by molding and heating in storage would be reduced. A wide variety of com- pounds have been tested as hay preservatives. The only commercially avail- able preservatives which have been shown to be effective are those which contain high levels of pro- pionic acid. Ammonium isobutyrate may also be effective, but | am not aware of any commercial preservatives that contain this ingredient. There are a number of problems with the use of propionic acid. Propionic acid is corrosive to ma- chinery, can be hazardous to handle and is expen- sive. The rate of appli- cation required is high; 16 to 20 pounds per ton of hay will be required to preserve hay containing 25 to 30 per cent moi- sture. To be effective, the acid must be uniformly applied and this is often difficult to achieve. Poor distribution of the chemi- _cal will permit localized growth of some molds. These molds can break down preservatives and eventually the mold will spread throughout the rest of the hay. Some commercial pre- servatives contain such weak concentrations of propionic acid that they cannot be effective as preservatives. In other cases, the commercial product contains high lev- els of application recom- Design Craft - Cabinets and Home Finishing Ornamental tron Railings JACK BOOKLESS Res. 556-8817 Bus. 556-6287 INSURANCE Insure Early — it costs no more, and It pro- tects crops as soon as they get started.

If the hay is dry enough for storage, the preservative will have no beneficial effect. In summary, it is sug- gested that commercial preservatives presently available will not be ef- fective unless they contain at least 80 per cent pro- pionic acid (or ammonium isobutyrate). The usetul- ness of preservatives added at less than 16 pounds per ton of wet hay is extremely. doubtful. However, even with high levels of propionic acid and high rates of applica- tion, it is questionable whether the preservative: will be “consistently ef- fective.
