[QUOTE="novaman, post: 180290, member: 2744"] In my opinion this question is a judgement call. I can't help but notice that most of the people to reply are from the south. I would think that if you can feed your cows with just a few bales each year then buying the hay would be within reason. For us guys up north it isn't quite that easy. I can easily figure on 6,7, or even 8 bales per cow per year. I'm making 3,000+ bales per year. I would have to sell the farm just to buy enough hay to feed my herd. Also, since the price of hay is constantly changing it can be a good idea to buy hay one year but the next year it could be outrageously expensive to do. [/QUOTE]
