Under the roof, a farmer builds a custom hay-drying system to maximize efficiency and quality in a rainy climate.

Detail description

The farmer is building a roof-mounted hay-drying system that pre-warms air beneath the roof, further heats it, and blows it through loose hay for efficient drying. This energy-efficient solution counters high regional rainfall, improves grassland quality, and supports animal health. Expected operational for the first cut in 2018, the system enhances hay quality and supports the farmer’s goal of producing high-quality, hay-based raw milk cheese.
