BREAKING DOWN 'Unintentional Tort'. In certain cases, a person causing an accident may be held legally responsible for their negligence and may have to pay a plaintiff for physical injuries, property damage and/or financial loss.
Straw is normally used for a bedding material, while hay is used as a feed supplement. Straw is dried out and works well for building nests and providing cushioning for animals to sleep in. It is not moist like hay and is unlikely to mold.
Straw and hay are not the same thing. We build with straw. Straw is the dry stalks of cereal plants, such as wheat, oats and barley, after the grain has been removed. It has a low moisture content and very little nutritional value. In its makeup, itâs quite similar to wood. Hay is dried grasses and legumes, e.g. pasture grass, alfalfa.
