The cattle farmers are suffering again this year and are in BAD need of hay. Trucks loaded with hay are going through my town daily heading to the area. I am told that the hay is bringing $70 (and higher) per for a 4X5 round bale. I realize that freight is driving the price but I believe this is robbery. I baled 128 4X5's this past weekend, keeping 50 and have sold the rest for $20/bale. Maybe I look at it wrong, but you ought to help your fellow farmers. I have always thought what goes around comes around.
