In my opinion, horse quality means put up right with NO rain. Here where I live you could not sell enough square baled hay to cow people to make a $. They are looking for round bales which are cheaper and easier for them to feed. I have to square bale horse hay in order to make any money fooling with hay. It is by far not perfect mixed grass with some junk in it in the field. If you take hay like that and get it up dry with the right amount of moisture in the bale, with no uncured clobs to cause spots to mold, it makes good horse hay. Usually this takes tettering it twice to beat the rain. Horses like it and my customers like it. If it gets ANY rain, I roll it up and sell it for cow hay and take my losses. If I tried to sell rained on hay for horse hay, I would soon loose my customers.
