In our area prices will reflect how the season went. We also have a a weekly hay auction not too far away. 4 or 5 years ago when we had some dry weather #1800 rounds were as much as 75 for good alfalfa. Last year was down at a low of about 30 (grass hay was selling for as little as 20). Now this year a bunch of guys hve cut down on how much hay they are raising trying to only have enough for themselves. A friend went from about 150 acres to 33. These are the square inch farmers......pant every square inch they can! Only a few people up here cutting ditch hay this year too.
There ya go.....bring yer equipment to MN....with the state shut down they aint cutting the road side....you can make lots of hay!
As far as the guy you mentioned......like anyone else he has something......someone wants it......it's up to him to set his price. If he sets it too high it wont sell......whats going to chruch got to do with that???? Never saw "thou shalt give thy hay away" in the bible!
