[QUOTE="stocky, post: 331917, member: 1150"] In the last 30 years, this is the 3rd time that hay prices have gone to the level they are at this year. They were higher at the scource the other 2 times, they are this high this year due to transportation costs. Even with them being this high two other times, 3 years ago you could get all the hay you wanted for 12-15 dollars per bale for 4x6 bales and 5-8 dollars for 1 year old hay. 3 years ago, I had a guy give me 150 bales of 2 year old hay if I would give him 10 dollars per bale of current year hay. So, my thinking is yes, hay will be cheap again. All will depend on supply and demand. There will be alot of people cut hay instead of run cattle and when the weather allows a great hay crop, there will be too much hay. [/QUOTE]
