[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1832583, member: 25884"] Most sell around here for $30-50 a roll... they are HARD on the balers... lots of dirt picked up... but they do add value to the land like you are looking for. And.... they do make good mulch for any other crop coming through as they break down slowly..... Had never figured the value.... they were a good source of "belly filler" a few years ago when hay was scarce up here.... then the following year the same farmer could barely give them away and we got a bunch since they were close for like $25/roll.... I liked them and the cows did a lot of picking and eating their way through them, rolled out on the ground. Got to make sure they get extra protein when feeding them, but they are great for filling the rumen and having it functioning better with the roughage...so what they eat comes out as more usable "fertilizer".... pretty much a win/win in the long run if they are not too expensive.
