Sizes and quality

The Hay Bale (side) texture is 16×16 pixels in game. Here it scales by multiplying each pixel by a whole number, so at 1024 px every pixel is a perfect square and the edges stay sharp. No interpolation smudging the pixel art.

Minecraft hay bale: falls, horses and smoke

A hay bale is worth nine wheat and can be crafted back into it, which makes it the compact way to store a harvest. A stack of 64 bales covers 192 loaves of bread. Anything breaks it but a hoe is fastest, and it shows up in piles in many plains villages.

Its most surprising use is breaking falls. Landing on a hay bale cuts fall damage by 80%, so at full health you can survive a 100-block drop. That is why people put one at the bottom of shafts and towers.

It pays off with animals too. It heals horses, donkeys, mules and llamas by up to 10 hearts, makes foals grow three minutes faster and lets you lead and breed llamas.

Under a campfire the smoke climbs much higher, about 25 blocks instead of 10, and can be seen from far away. In a composter, though, it is a bad idea: composting loose wheat gives far more bone meal than composting it as bales.
