[QUOTE="grannysoo, post: 482493, member: 6980"] This is one of the smartest things that has ever been said on this board. 1. Plan for a rainy day or lack thereof. 2. Pay the piper or cull the cows. 3. Produce your own. Everyone here that is not doing it needs to try option 3 and produce your own. Run on out and spend 50K or more getting good hay equipment, pay that fertilizer bill every year, spend your time in that 100 + degree southern weather and just have some fun with it. When you factor in all of the costs of making hay, IT'S NOT CHEAP! Don't get me wrong, I'm not into price gouging, but when you have years like this (high fuel, drought, high fertilizer costs), it may cost $25 - 40 per roll to bale your own hay. Factor in the cost of equipment, your time, your maintenance, and it's easy to have $50.00 per roll in doing your own hay. Bale your own and you'll soon stop complaining.... [/QUOTE]
