A bale of hay, square standard size, used to be close to a gallon of gas.
Corn went up and down but stayed around $2 a bushel for a long long time.
I sold hay last year to a fellow in Michigan for $75 a ton and he paid shipping from here to Michigan.
This year, I just sold 100 round bales (4x4 timothy/grass) for $60 a ton. That's as low as I want to go anymore. after that, I am gonna whack it with a mower and leave it lay, put it in grain.
I don't see a correlation between grain and hay. Auction prices are king. when I go to a hay auction, I see lots of bales of marginal worth sell for $4 a square. I don't buy or sell at auction, but I use it to set my prices.
This year is good and bad for hay. If you are a hay farmer and you got it done on time, you are good. If you are a grain farmer and cut hay after grain is in the ground, you were too late and the hay is fair to poor in quality. That's just my area.
