For everyone that bales and sales hay to the public, how much are you going to change things this year?
I know everything from fertilizer, to fuel and twine has went up, so I am expecting to pay more for hay, but just how much more over previous years is the question. With the drought we've been in down here, hay has been upwards of $100 a round bale in some cases, where in the past it was $30-$35. As my neighbor put it (whom I bought hay from last year), he ain't selling any of the first or second cutting, and then after he is completely overstocked with hay, he might sell some.
