some years ago I had my largest field rained on 2 days after mowing in mid June. just one rainy day, then we got it dried down. I thought at the time that the hay was ruined, but my dairy farmer mentor said "don't worry it don't hurt it" so we took samples, got it tested, and sure enough energy and protein were still good. However, we are now in late July and it does hurt over mature hay to get wet. Every wet dry cycle takes value out and every day of sitting wet takes value out.So my recommendation would be to bale it up and sell it for mulch. I am seeing the hay market as very tight so prices for mulch should be strong.
