This was an easy to read informative book about growing and harvesting hay. I liked the way it was presented, very simple and straightforward. It wasn't muddled in things you don't need to know.
A very brief introduction to the art of making hay, describes the most common hay species, equipment and steps to making quality hay for your critters. At only 85 pages long this is not an all-inclusive manual by any means, but provides a good starting point for anyone who doesn't know much about hay and wants to start simple.
