sunlight can bleach it, but air exposure has a simular effect. For instance, a stack of hay bales that were green when stacked will be the same as an individual bale will get. The outside edges of the stack will do the same as a far as changing color but the bales within the stack will remain green just like the inside of a bale will remain green. Part of the trick is to bale when hay is dry enough to stack and get it stacked as soon as possible. The other part of the trick is to stack hay when selling with the green side out. So like if you have a bale that is brown on the top and one side, stack it when you are selling it with the brown top to the bottom and the brown side to the inside of the stack. Just kind of a way to be clever at doctoring things up for eye appeal. The quality of hay doesn't really change with a little bleaching. For what its worth, some hay is just not going to maintain its green color. Laying to long before its baled will pretty much guarantee that it will lose its greeness. Sometimes that just has to happen in order for ya to get it baled right.
