Cost of Hay
Could anyone please tell me the going rate for a bale of hay if I bought 250 to 300 bales?

Sounds like you are going to build one of those eco-friendly hay bale homes. Great idea!
Is it true that from October all new buildings in Spain MUST incorporate solar panels? If so ... about time too. However, how will that affect the cost of building, the cost of property, the ability to sell 'old' properties without the solar panels, will houses sold to be 'reformed' have to have them in the reformation AND will the government give grants?
Don't want to know much, do I?

Gisela, Straw is the stalks from cereal crops like wheat and barley after the grain has been removed. It's quite course and light and is used as bedding on the floor of stables. It also has excellent insulating properties, hence good for house building. Hay is grasses, clover, wildflowers and in the best quality will have about twenty different plants and herbs in it, I believe. The bales are heavier and it is an animal feed.
Sorry to be such a pedant.

Quite a few people in Spain do feed straw - I think it is Barley straw - supposed to be edible - but I should imagine not very nutritious. I have never seen horses or mules or donkeys fed on anything else here in Spain. I am not talking about the top glass stables but the ordinary horse, mule, donkey in the street. The working animal. It would be nice to see these animals fed on hay
