Bought hay today
Needed some small squares. Good on round bales for the cows.
Headed to Denison, IA, this morning with my daughter.
Don't know what happened, hay was supposed to start at 10am.
It started at 11:45.
A lot of buyers left. Got 50/60lb bales of mixed grass at $4 a bale. Timothy/brone/orchard.
Crazy, but the small bales of straw went for $7.
Filled the trailer, and sold off a few more to people that only wanted a couple bales.
Patience pays off.

hay here in the inter mountain west has went nuts due rained on crops, hot summer and short on water.
cow hay is $225 a ton and horse hay is as high as $370 per ton.
I just on Saturday bought 10 ton of 3’x4’x8” bales weighing ~1,300# for a friend in Montana who lost her hay to a fire, price was $2,502.00, and that was getting a deal on it from someone I knew.
here’s what I’m seeing East Idaho Craigslist.

Drove by a couple of fields of cut hay Friday .maybe 160 acres total. The guy was running a conditioner when I went by, could have been a cutter/conditioner he was out a ways and I was just driving buy. A November cutting that's pretty good around these parts.

Thanks for your post, it forced me to educate myself a little. I didn't know the difference between Hay and straw or grass for that matter and thanks to Technology rather then have to pull out an encyclopedia or go to the Library I googled it :)
Curious has inflation jacked up the price of Hay as well?
