O/T a little, but I thought you guys out in the big square states would be interested to know what the middle-man is getting for the alfalfa you grew.
My sister has a thoroughbred training facility in South Carolina. Saturday morning she called me and told me her regular hay man was having problems and she was almost out of alfalfa. Wanted me to pick up enough to last her until Tuesday or so from a distributor in Camden, a hotbed of the hunter/jumper horsie set.
I went over and talked to them; they had two flavors, some Michigan that was ok, and some 2nd Wisconsin that was a little fresher. Small bales, right at 75 lbs. each. Her yearling trainees are finicky so I got her the Wisc.
I had them load thirty bales, about what my utility trailer wanted to carry, at the tonnage price, $14.44 a bale, $390 a ton.
Good luck, Wm
