Feeding the Cows....Will they get sick eating this hay? #farming #regenerativeagriculture

What happens here

Although not explicitly shown, the process begins by loading a large round hay bale onto a specialized hay unroller attachment, which is then hitched to an all-terrain vehicle (ATV). Once prepared, operate the ATV, driving slowly and steadily across the pasture. As the ATV moves, the hay unroller's mechanism (typically driven by ground wheels or a PTO) continuously unwinds the hay bale, distributing a long, even line of hay directly onto the ground. This linear distribution allows multiple cattle to feed simultaneously without crowding or trampling the hay, which helps reduce waste. Observe the cows approaching the fresh hay line and beginning to feed.

Goal: Distribute a round hay bale evenly across the pasture using an ATV and hay unroller.
