In Reply to: Hay buyers? posted by Nebraska Cowman on May 29, 2015 at 10:54:05:
Not many squares in my area of Nebraska either. I buy more than that sometimes depending how dry it is, in addition to putting up a fair amount of my own. Feeding tons a day, a Haybuster works better than paying a premium for small squares and having more work.
"Big time" hay buyer is a relative term. I have a couple different neighbor families about 5 miles away that buy/sell/put up hay. They deal in several 1000s of big rounds yearly (1600lbs each + or - usually) and truck them all over the place. They do convert some of them to small squares to truck out. Most people have Deere balers. Guessing over a dozen used sitting on the lot there. 568 or 569 used one season, common to see over 10,000 bales on them (and they'd be the size I said, because that's what most people use).
Anyway, they would buy hay if I have any extra, which I never do. Also, the feedlots always buy hay, but generally they low bid and take older hay to have something mixed with it. Can advertise it on the radio, or in the papers. But generally not much around, and it sells very quickly when in high demand as it has been for several years.
No demand for round bales there? Not many big square balers around, never see any for sale. Quite expensive last time I looked them up. I have seen the neighbor do a couple hundred small round bales with his big baler, don't know what he does with those.

Today's Featured Article - My Ford Golden Jubilee - by Troy Estes. This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
