There is some measure of truth in this contention but often no injustice is: being. done the person who | buys/a bale of hay which actual- ly weighs a very few pounds less than the tagged weight that has been paid for. ; Let us consider just what Shrinkage consists of and when the greatest amount of it occurs. The making of .héy. from. the freshly cut forage plant consists chiefly in the reduction of the moisture content from approxi- mately 65 per cent — 75 per cent to. from 12— 15 per cent, When ‘the barn or stack it goes through a process that is general[v term- ed ‘‘sweating’’ during which pro- cess still further moisture is lost.
