[QUOTE="hayray, post: 384232, member: 3046"] I figure it cost me 22 tons of hay and or forage to produce 1 ton of retail beef product cut and wrapped. At the time I did my cost analysis I priced hay at $130/ ton, which is a real high estimate because for the most part I sell my hay for that price or higher, and then beef was valued at $9500/ton based on an average price of $4.75/lb. Anybody doing a little bit of searching should easily find hay for 60 to $80/ton. What are your numbers you came up with? [/QUOTE]
