HAY FORECAST
UPDATE - 4th Sept
Small square bale supply is still restricted to Prime Lucerne and Barley Hay.
We are now being told to expect hotter and drier than average weather for the next 2-3 months which would pretty much kill off any hope of relief in the near future. Our relationships with our farmers is being stretched to maximum as we ask for hay to be put aside for us but the truth is, every single bale could be sold in a matter of minutes if they chose to sell to other customers.
We will start restricted the number of bales that can be purchased, with priority being given to our most regular customers.

Our chaff supply is secured, so we do not foresee any shortages through the coming months.
Note: Our Barely Hay is a beardless variety and is suitable for use as small animal feed. We also bag this in smaller quantities for your convenience.
GRASSY ROUND BALES
We have a very limited supply of Grassy Round Bales and will not have any in for a week. We are now focusing on our regular customers who buy round bales all year as we are receiving a large number of new customer calls every day seeking these.
We source all our hay from local farmers with whom we have established long relationships. We collect direct from the farm several times per week and our aim is maintain a reliable stock of fresh feed all year, even when supply is short.
Our chaff is locally cut and bagged specifically for Brendale Produce using high temperature steam treatment to maintain freshness, ensuring it is always to our standards.
We primarily stock several grades of lucerne as well as grassy and barley hay in standard square, small round and large round bales. The table below shows bale types currently supplied by farmers in our region. Actual availability is seasonal.
