[QUOTE="GMN, post: 308338, member: 2382"] 50 acres of hay land, on really good land, may put out 2-4 bales per acre, in a good year, about 150 round bales. Buying 150 round bales would cost $25-$30 a bale, totalling=$3750 to $4500 a year. Have to take the digits into consideration on how much hay the land will put out to justify buying equipment. If you could pick up cheaper equipment at auctions, could be feasible. I like putting up our own hay, we always have to buy hay, but my theory is every little bit helps of our own, to buy less (weather permitting) GMN [/QUOTE]
