Forage Conditioning

Forage Conditioning is a mechanical or thermal treatment process applied to harvested forage crops to accelerate moisture loss and promote uniform drying, distinguishing it from other post-harvest handling methods by its specific focus on disrupting plant tissue structure to enhance curing efficiency in hay production.
