The FG20P Backyard Compost Thermometer is made in China. We do offer US made thermometers, search for Reotemp Heavy Duty Compost Thermometer. -Peter Reotemp

Does it measure the temperature at the tip of the probe, or must the whole 20" probe be the same temperature to get a sensible reading?

The sensitive portion is the last 2 inches at the tip of the probe. So you don't have to necessarily put the entire stem into the compost pile.

Yes! The dial is hermetically sealed (waterproof).

Will this work to tell the temp in hay bales?

Yes. that is what I use them for and they work really well. I locate the bales that are the hottest and leave the REOTEMP in the bale and look at it daily. My last hay was not as dry as I would have liked and I put the REOTEMP in when it read 120F three days after baling. It went to 140F and then came back to 120 when I removed it yesterday.
