Spontaneous combustion and hay fires CLINTON - Lives have been lost and hay crops destroyed because of fires caused by spontaneous com- bustion. When the weather doesn't co-operate many farmers try to store hay before it is properly cured. If the hay crop is put into the mow above 20-25% moisture con- tent, spontaneous combustion may occur. A hay crop that is placed too wet into a mow will rapidly heat. If the mow is so large that heat loss is re- stricted, the internal temperature will rise. As the temperature rises above 130 degrees F (55°C), a chemical reaction occurs and may sustain itself. This reaction does not require oxygen, but the flammable gases produced are at a temperature above their ignition point. These gases will ignite when they come in contact with oxygen. Chock your hay regularly. If you detect a slight caramel odor or a distinct musty smell, chances arc your hay is heating. What do you do? First of all, make yourself a simple probe that can be inserted into the hay mass to check the temperature. A probe can be made from a 10 foot piece of electrical tubing.

Drive the probe into the hay mass and lower a candy thermometer on a long string into the probe. The ther- mometer should be left for 10 min- utes to ensure an accurate reading. Watch for the following tempera- tures: 150 degrees F (65°C) •• Enter- ing the danger zone. Check temper- ature daily. 160 degrees F (71°C) "Danger! Measure teatpe ature every four hours and inspect mow. 175 degrees F (80°C) •e Call the fire department. Wet hay down and remove from barn. 185 degrees F (85°C) "Hot spots and pockets may be expected. Flames will likely develop when heating hay comes in contact with oxygen. 212 degrees F (100°C) " Criti- cal! Temperature rise is rapid above this point. Hay will almost certainly ignite. CAUTION: Before entering the mow, place long planks on top of the hay. Do not attempt to walk on the hay mass itself. Pockets may have already burned out under the hay surface. Always tie a rope around your waist and have a sec- ond person on the other end in a safe location to pull you out should the surface of the hay col- lapse into a fire pocket. • Extreme caution should be taken when fighting a hay fire if hay has been treated with chemical preser- vatives. Hay treated with preserva- tives containing ethoxyquin and BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) will produce hydrogen cyanide gas at around 240 degrees F (115° C). This gas is very deadly. Additives containing primarily propionic acid do not produce hydrogen cya- nide during a fire. Many fanners sprinkle salt on hay as it is stored. in an effort to prevent hay fires. However, tests have shown that salt has no effect on controlling spontaneous com- bustion. Dry ice, liquid nitrogen or carbon dioxide gas pumped into the hay will help prevent combus- tion by eliminating the oxygen from the hay mass. Spontaneous combustion is not an accident. By following good storage practices, not only will spontaneous combustion be avoid- ed, but a higher quality of hay will be obtained.
