Horse Farms with Hay Storage for Sale in Central Virginia — Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is dedicated hay storage important?
   Proper hay storage protects your feed from moisture, pests, and spoilage, helping maintain nutritional value and reducing waste throughout the year.
2. What types of hay storage buildings are common?
   Central Virginia farms often include loft storage above barns, separate hay sheds, or enclosed pole buildings designed for year-round protection.
3. How much hay storage space do I need?
   A general rule is 1–2 tons per horse annually, requiring roughly 80–100 square feet of well-ventilated storage area per ton.
