[QUOTE="Soggy Bottom, post: 1608913, member: 27833"] I have been running some rough numbers on the possible profits of a small hay business. I know this is a very loaded question and hard to answer but is there any rough numbers hay growers shoot for to profit of an acre per year? The numbers I have come up with for a good coastal field is around $100 for round bales and $300 for square bales of profit for acre. These are the numbers I am using. 5000lb per of hay per acre $60 fertilizer per acre $8 an acre weed spray $60 round bales $6 square bales $25 round baler charge $1 square baler charge $1 square bale stack [/QUOTE]
