Default Straw as mulch

g'day sandra,

if it's cheap use it that's the rule, when you say lucerne mulch is
that spoilt lucerne mulch hay or fodder quality? usually spoilt hay is
not that expensive around here about $8 per bale the same as sugar
cane mulch in rough bales.

staw doesn't put much nutrient in as it slowly breaks down mostly
carbon is what it adds, so maybe from time to time yo could altenate
and sue spoilt luceren or pasture grass hay's?
