My spoiled miniature horses have always wasted a large amount of hay by pulling it out and eating the alfalfa and tromping a lot of the grass hay into the manure. I built feeders that helped a bunch but they still wasted quite a bit. Because of my Neuropathy it is hard to get off the tractor to tend to my sickle bar mower from plugs and such. Knees cant work the clutch many times as well. I had read where some people cut there hay with a rotary mower. That is what I used to cut my first two cuttings this year. It drys a little faster than mowing and crimping but the but advantage is that the horses eat almost all the hay grass and all when cutting with the rotary mower. My hay is an alfalfa grass mix. The rotary mower kinda chops it somewhat and I am wondering. Does that way of cutting mix the alfalfa juice with the grass to give the grass an alfalfa taste? I feed hay all summer to keep from pasturing the lots bare. What ever happened I like the results.
