[QUOTE="JMJ Farms, post: 1563412, member: 24583"] Spot on in regards to my hay barn cost estimate. Only difference is I figure 10% waste before feeding. And that could be slightly high FOR ME. So let’s say I roll 500 rolls. Lose 50@$50/bale. That’s $2500/year. A steel building large enough to store 500 rolls would cost me about $22-24k. So about 10 years. Your estimate would be $6k loss per year. $50k barn (assuming costs in your location are similar to my area) so 9 years. I don’t really see how it could possibly be a bad decision in the long run. It’s just a substantial upfront cost. [/QUOTE]
