How do you "hook into hay"?
How are bales left out "prior to harvesting"?

Journalism has sunk pretty low in the USA.

Ever drive past hayfields? I see bales all over them at times,
with nobody in sight.

Harry (being in the UK) is not familiar with the size and scale of farm
fields here in north america.

I know they are moved under cover as soon as possible to keep them dry.

Rolled bales are often covered with sheet plastic and left in the fields for
extended periods. *At least in the fields here in N. Texas. (been a bit dry
here abouts over the past several years so that may have something to do
with the practice)

Even dew will spoil hay.
The black bags are not hay but silage. (Fermented grass)
Silage BTW would be twice the weight of hay.
