There are so many round bales around south central KY that you could find them for 15 bucks this past winter. Even now, I see large quantities on hand. Far cry from two years ago.We had a lot of dry weather here and people lost their pastures. The big round bales last summer were going for about $65 each. If someone had trucked and bunch in and I'm sure people did, they could have made a killing down here.
Straw has really gotten expensive in the last five or ten years in many areas due to the demand for it. I heard one story about a large horse operation that uses straw for bedding. The operators then shred/compost the straw/manure and sell it for gardening/yard useage. Now that is thinking!
