Well hay prices at the auction in Dyersville where down yesterday. Bought three semi loads of nice grass hay in big squares for $110 a ton. I can't grow it for that. I figure I have $40 a ton just in mowing/raking/baling. So that made the hay itself be around $70 per ton or 3 1/2 cents per LBS. Cheap feed I think.
I know it will be much higher this fall. I really did not need the hay but for that price I can leave some of my better hay in the shed for later.
As for your FIL, it would have been better to have just told the hay seller the he did not need any right now but would keep the hay in mind for later. His low ball offer just POed the hay seller. So if your FIL does need hay in the future I can guarantee the hay seller will remember the low ball offer and charge the FIL more money then.
