I read with interest the thread below about hay and the equipment needed to do the work. All this comes at a time when I happen to be looking at buying 25 acres of land that the current owner has been growing and selling the hay off of. I admit complete ignorance in these matters, so perhaps the distinguished members of the board can help. If I bought the land, I would continue to do that and would use the proceeds to defray the cost of the property. Or maybe it would cost more than it is worth to do. My question centers around the economics of selling hay. This is good grass and I think would sell for probably $2.00 per square bale. Here in Alabama given that I fertilize I think I could get 2 cuttings a summer. Can someone give me an idea about what the costs (excluding equipment, I think that has already been covered in the previous thread) would be and what the potential profits might be (I guess I really need to know what the yeild will be in the number of square bales). Any help is appreciated...thanks...BB
