[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 334964, member: 1715"] I have tried a number of ways to address the summer slump. Usually I graze corn or supplement 3 to 5#/hd/day. With the price of grain I think I am going to sell some corn and buy back some hay... I plan to feed in rough or poor areas that could use some fertility. I plan to buy about 120 round bales from a neighbor who is 2 miles away. I currently have 2 flat bed wagons and some round bale rings. I can buy flat bed wagons for $200 to $250 each at auctions, and then I have to spend a little more on bearing grease and tire tubes. Is there any way a guy can justify feeder wagons? The 30' long units go for around 4K new, and for over 2K used. Or is a bale buggy to unroll the hay a better approach for feeding on pasture without a bale processor? [/QUOTE]
