[QUOTE="Bez>, post: 411228, member: 6007"] Sorry to hear this has happened - when times are not as good I will be curious to see what happens. I am too crusty I guess - I would never set foot on that land again. Contract or not he will be a problem in the future. I learned the hard way - lost a big piece of ground under contract about three years ago - the response was -a "Well, take me to court if you want." - now I buy standing hay - a buck a foot on the bale length or diametre. No input costs for fert and I just pay for what I take. This year people are lining up - I'll probably have three years worth of hay when I am done. Average price on 5 foot rounds will be under 15 bucks a bale stacked in the yard and covered. I do not mind feeding good bales that are one to two years old - cows do just fine on them. So next year I might just not do any hay at all. I figure hay production costs are going to go way up - so I might just save some big bucks - for one year anyways. We will see. Bez> [/QUOTE]
