[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 556316, member: 1715"] Hay prices are pretty local. State of Minnesota fore casted $60 a ton in the north and $100 a ton in the south for cow hay. I think it will be on the high side of this range, and some horse people will pay a lot more. "Good" alfalfa is going for $200 to 250 per ton. I suppose it is being priced against grain by the dairy guys. After two dry summers and high horse hay auction prices last spring ($80 to $100 a roll) some folks are speculating and hay is hard to find. My neighbor has a sharp pencil and he plans to ship his bigger cows (1500 to 1600#) and then sell part of his hay. I have not run any numbers yet but I am afraid he is right. There are already some empty pastures in the country this summer. [/QUOTE]
