Re: Fuel costs!!
well for my hay ,, yr before last a big round bale was going for 20 bucks a bale ,, last yr ,, with the drought ,, they hit 50 bucks ,, and near winter they were up to 110 bucks ,,, i am doing good so far this yr ,, on the second cut of alfalfa ,, and soon to be on the second cut of timothy grass ,, last yr 1 cutting of alf ,, and almost 2 on Tim grass ,, so we'll see ,, and as u said jim ,,, fertilizer hit the roof this yr ,, but i don't sell hay ,, i use it for the cows ,, but if i have enough left over (that is not for winter feeding) then i sell it ,, last yr i just bearly made it thru the winter ,, on the yr before and last yr's crop ,, but since it was kinda warm this winter ,, the fields didn't die ,, and the cows could eat some of it ,, but the drought ruined the alf ,, had to redisc the field an replant
