Hay sheds allow storing hay supply in dry conditions by not having to contend with hay loss as a result of moisture and inclement weather conditions. They protect hay by maximizing weather protection and minimizing hay loss. Hay stored outside has been shown to lose 25-35% of total dry matter compared to only a 4-7% loss of hay stored inside. 

    In addition preventing losses, storage sheds are effective for protection against:

    • High winds
    • Lightning
    • Fire
    • Mold and mildew
    • Termites

    Hay sheds and hay storage buildings can be constructed in many different sizes and styles, including:

    1. Open gables, 
    2. Structures with only posts and a roof system,
    3. Three sided hay storage.
