* One hässja is a scaffold consisting of standing sturgeons and intermediate strands or tensioned wires. The scaffolding is used to dry a harvest in the form of grass, cataracts and herbs hay or to dry shards of grain or rice rice. The scaffolding can be exhibited only seasonally or permanently built. The work of laying hay on the haystack is called that hässja. Hay on the stand is called hässjat hö. The stand with applied hay is also often called hay haystack. The use of haymaking decreased sharply during the latter part of the 20th century when the drying of hay was simplified with mechanized hay turners and drying devices in the buildings where the hay was driven in. With increased intake of winter feed in the form of balar at the same time, the intake of wild hay decreased and the haymaking decreased further. With the introduction of combine harvesters into agriculture, the grain was threshed at the root and hashing lost its significance.
