Which of the following is NOT grass hay?

• A. Alfalfa
• B. Timothy
• C. Bermuda
• D. Orchardgrass

Answer: (A)

Grass hay comes from grasses, which are in the Poaceae family. Alfalfa, on the other hand, is a legume (Medicago sativa) and not a grass, so it’s not grass hay. Timothy, Bermuda, and orchardgrass are all common grass hays, making them fit the category. The distinction between grass and legume hay is the reason alfalfa is the correct choice for “NOT grass hay.”
