    I love this setup. So cool! I would like to know why they are moving the hay around in that fashion. What is the purpose. Packaging? Very interesting!

    I would guess that is the first in a series of stalls that they need to put hay in. Maybe a big dairy or beef processing facility?

    it's very green looking - is the aeration to help it dry?

    I was going to say silage, but it seems there is quite a bit of extra handling involved.

    The first bin seems to be a thin coating, but the second one he dumped into is pretty thick in the place he dumped.

    It could be a progressive drying operation, but even so, the humidity in that building would be very high...

    From the website, it is definitely a hay handling system.
