I am in East Texas and plan on having a lot of square bales next year of good quality bermuda grass and I was wondering where you can find hay brokers that would purchase hay in large quantitys.Or just a good place to sell other than local. Thanks

Here in central Missouri bermuda ain't worth spit and a broker wouldn't pay the freight on it. I wouldn't waste much time and effort on it and certainly not on WF because you'll never get your money back..... .

I agree with you Willy T. Worldfeeder is just making some people in Oklahoma rich, that is all.

If I were you I would not spend the money on World Feeder bermuda grass. A neighbor of mine planted some of it and it was a joke.Plant some Jiggs or Tifton 85,the 85 is excellent for grazing and hay in protein and tonnage.

Have you done an online search? Most of the brokers here only deal with a crop in the barn. They will visit you and pull forage samples, then make an offer. What type of hay, how many bales, weight per bale, and what kind of price are you wanting are questions they will all ask. Most of them here are paying in the $80 a ton range for very premium western alfafla/grass mix in truck or rail car load lots with the broker paying the freight. Loaded by the seller. Understand that the price of diesel fuel will determine the price of the hay. Retailing it here and south into Florida in the $220-$240 range. I havent been able to deal with them much, they generally wont consider less than 1000 uniform bales. I did manage to sell a 660 bale load lot of nice alfalfa/orchard grass with uniform color for $102 per ton last year to a broker. But that was selling close and he needed it quick so not much freight in it.
