| Thanks for the info. We have 3 weekly hay auctions in my immediate area. The high end of it has been around 150 a ton this summer. I was really hoping for better with all the hay acres that have been taken out recently. I suspect things will improve by winter but we will see. That price just doesn't compare to corn right now. At 5 ton an acre, putting up 4 cuttings I just cannot justify it. If you throw in a cheap cutting or two from getting rained on, it really doesn't figure. We do have several dairies in the area but most grow there own hay.
Do many of you still raise hay to sell on ground that could grow corn or soybeans? In my area the hay fields are few and far between with most belonging to dairies. | |
