whoa im shocked that AC only bales 3000 bales a year.heck i know a guy that puts up 10,000 bales a year plus square bales.an thats on a good year.he puts up almost 3000 for hisself an son in law.
BB I have never hid the fact that I bale around 3000 a yr some yrs more some yrs a little less
I also do it all with just me and my wife now and then If the wife has other things to do I have a guy that helps me to pay for his hay
when we were running hard at one time we would bale 30,000 or more squares a yr and also 4-5000 big round bales
but we were running a full time haying crew at the time and did everything from cut it to put it in the barn
if I wanted to put up more bales of lesser quality hay I could bale more bales but I won't bale junk and at 3000 bales I can get to my customers hay when it needs done and I ain't spending excess money on fuel running all over to bale junk hay
plus like Dun says I do bale a good tight bale and that makes a big difference on how many bales you bale in a field
I wouldn't bale hay your junk hay for you because you don't "WASTE MONEY ON FERTILIZER" your words not mine
and if it isn't fertilized it is a waste of everybodies time from the guy baling it to the guy that is feeding low quality hay to his cows and trying to fool them into thinking it is good and yes the cows will eat it when you starve them to it
1 bale of hay per day for 70 cows is pretty much starving them to it
