[QUOTE="Old McDonald, post: 3870272, member: 47276"] It cannot really be "dead" can it? I would also have thought that if it heated it was a good thing. It is obviously goingto be very inconsistent as to quality, nutrient content, and probably also OM. I know there is a standard, but some is possibly well above this standard. If it it not tested before you buy, it would be worth the small additional cost to have your own analysis carried out. Probably worthwhile anyway if you are buying any quantity. I am sure your extra 6 months stockpiling will do no harm if the windrow is not open to the weather, in which case leaching might occur. In that case do an analysis before windrowing, and again after the 6 months. You then have all the info you need. At worst you are importing OM to your land, and allowing for the actual cost, that is almost invariably beneficial. [/QUOTE]
