hay rakes
Dried grass gatherers
Hay rakes are farm implements used to gather cut hay into rows or piles for drying and collection.
Traditional hand rakes have long wooden or metal tines; mechanical horse-drawn and tractor-pulled versions revolutionized haymaking by covering fields efficiently.
The verb phrase rake hay describes the action.
A hay rake attachment turns scattered cuttings into neat windrows ready for baling.
