Big ton bales are increasingly popular among American hay farmers. Round hay bales are the common method for feeding livestock and horses in many areas. If hay is simply placed on the ground without any feeder, a percentage of the feed will be wasted when the animals walk on the hay that falls from the bale as the animals eat. Hay bale feeders are available commercially or can be built by the livestock owner. In many agricultural and farming areas you can see stacks and mounds of cylinder-shaped hay bales covered in a white plastic film, resembling oversized marshmallows. It is a common practice for farmers to cover the hay that they store outside with plastic to protect it from the elements.
