There is an old saying: Poor pay makes poor help. I bet that you have one hell of a time getting any repeat workers. I was making $8-10 dollars an hour in hay thirty years ago. I always tend to pay in the top range of the local market. I have several High school boys that work their butts off for me. One of them a neighbor asked me why I kept him. He said that the kid was not worth hiring. I found out he paid him half of what he told the kid when he hired him. Docked the kid for taking time to get a drink between loads of hay.

These boys watch my hay field and as soon as I mow hay they are calling me to see when I want to bale. I keep track and it never costs me more than 15 to 20 cent a bale to get into the barn. I have good equipment and make it as easy as I can. When a bale of good hay is worth $3-5 dollars a bale around here why screw over some high school kid to make a few more dollars.
