To make hay pellets, the forage plant has to grow to the proper maturity stage, then cut, dry and bale the forage into conventional bales for storage.
The forage is stored to prevent any damage or bleaching associated with exposure of the forge to sun or inclement weather.
Throughout the year, this baled forage is ground, mixed with steam, and pushed through a die with pressure to form the pellet.
Horses often eat hay pellets faster than traditional hay because the smaller, ground particles are easy to chew and swallow.
