bales of sawdust


Explanation:
or sawdust bales.

strø = "sagflis, torv og lignende til å strø på golvet i fjøs og stall"

"In the cold months, the mill uses the sawdust to power its own furnace for heat and to run its kilns that dry the lumber. But when the weather warms up, it sells its supply to dairy farmers for animal bedding and to plants that manufacture wood pellets that are burned in woodstoves and furnaces."
