[QUOTE="cjk, post: 769607, member: 14172"] Perhaps that should have read, purchase a lesser amount of hay. Part of the goal in this is to get to year round grazing, but I realistically think that 300 days will be all I can get (unless I want to have only a handful of cows, which does not justify the means). I think in the first year I may only get 240-270 days. But even 30 to 60 days less feeding is a ton less per animal (say 70 head @ $120/ton) so give or take $8,400 in feed costs alone! The fencing would pay for itself in the first year at that rate. [/QUOTE]
