adag

The old practice of hooding stooks is still followed in parts of Gaeldom. The upper part of a sheaf is divided down to the band in two equal parts and placed with the stubble end uppermost so as to hang down both sides of the stook. Two or three hood-sheaves - the Scots name - suffice for a stook. The Gaelic word, adag, probably is derived from this hat-like covering, (CR).
