There wont be any proffit for the seller but I bet he will get some offers. It was so rainey last season and the crop was real good in the south, there is too much hay to be sold. If people are storing it outside, they had almost rather give it away than let it rot. Even at a decent price, there is not a lot of money in hay anyway.

I live in North east Iowa. 5x6 bales of corn stalks are going for $25-$30 for bedding. Hay Starts at $40-$50 per bale. Then you would have delivery on top of that. I don't think that my cows would eat $20 round bales very well. CRP weeds would bring more than that here.

Around here, they charge 22.50 per round 4X5 to cut rake and bale, leave in your field.

:lol: For $20, mine will stay in the barn. Course it is nice to know next year my cows will be eating $20 hay instead of $54 hay.

So essentially what this guy wants is to pay for delivery and get the hay for free.

Some one will take him up on it. There are some folks around here selling round bales for $20 now to get cleaned out. Was alot of hay around here this last year. I have a buddy cut and roll my hay for me. I rake it and he charged $17.50 for the biggest bale a new JD baler can make last year. That is cheaper than I can do it myself with old equipment, but I still bought 50 bales 15 miles up the road for $25 and hauled them home. Even at 4 bales/acre $30 don't go far with a fertilize buggy!

This will turn out to be a convenient way for someone to get rid of some poor quality hay, that he would have been ashamed to try to sell.

I gave away a couple hundred small square bales one time, because they weren't put up dry enough for horses, but would be OK for cows, and it was too late in the season to sell it. Stressed to the callers that they had to take it as it came, no putting any bales aside for me to be stuck with. I even helped load (primarily to enforce the above rule). Turned out to be a good way to clear the barn out for the new crop.

The way the market is around here I would jump on that one. I can't eat hay and I got about 3000 bales just going to waste.

in north west Il. you can't buy straw for a price like that let alone hay.
hay brings 45 to 50 dollars a bale free delivery 5 miles after that 1.50 to 2.00 a loaded mile.
some grass first crop brought 27.50 i should have jumped on that.
