- 8note 4y agoLooking at https://ilfbpartners.com/farm/farm-facts/hay-vs-straw-whats-the-difference/ https://ilfbpartners.com/farm/farm-facts/hay-vs-straw-whats-... Straw is inaccurate because said grandfather is doing the harvest, not cleaning up after the harvest
- throwaway742 4y agoFriend you are wrong. Hay is harvested green. It says straw is the byproduct of harvesting wheat i.e. what your grandfather was doing. You could have wheat hay, but you would have to harvest early. No one is going to do that.
- dghughes 4y agoIt was wheat as stated. But my analogy of hay being cut by men vs machinery was just that an example.
