Straw is a waste product from growing grains like wheat. It is the dried stalks of the plants after the seed heads have been cut off at harvest time. Straw is used for animal bedding, mulching gardens, as thatched rooves, making hats, and as a poor-quality animal feed. Hay is similar to straw but is a better quality animal feed.
