Well They are large Round bales with clover, orchard grass, and fescue. I heard wide ranges of prices per bale around here since its hard to find and not many farmers here want to part with it till the grass starts to grow.

Trying to figure out the best price to sell my hay for. I have large Grass bales first cut. Not sure on the weight and im from Iowa. Any ideas on what to charge?

I have 90 Acres for spring grazing now I no longer have cattle on it since sept. Neighbor wants to rent it just to eat the grass on it. Any ideas on what its worth to rent for a month or two? Thank you

How can you tell if cattle have been getting a lot of grain?

What does it mean, when they say the cattle are very green? How do you tell that they are green.

Just wondering what you all thought of the cattle prices? I have noticed at the Sale barns that the prices are still going way up for 500 to 600 pound cattle and the futures are at 9 weeks lows. Have we hit a bubble in the market or just a little bump to higher prices? anyone?

I will have plenty of good grass hay out and minerals, salt,and bloat blocks. They will be running out on 40 acres then after the grass is good enough will be turned out to 100 acres of grass

Here soon I will be buying cattle at sale barns from 500 to 600 pounds. How much corn should I start them out? whats the best way to add more but not get them to fat to turn on for grass this spring?

Just bored, I just about ready to sell my yearlings, When do you guys think would be the best time to start buying some 400 to 500 pound cattle back? Think the market hit a peak and starting to come back down and wait closer to spring and take the winner off? Just a small time hobby farmer
