Mowing and baleing my oddest shaped field

[@JustMakingIt-123]

Very nice hay!

[@Mad_Farmer912]

Definitely better than I thought it would be.

[@bryanginder5903]

How much hay did you end up with left over from last year!? Did you sell most of them!?

[@Mad_Farmer912]

When I started hay I had about 100 bales left. I only sold a couple of loads to the neighbors last year and most of it I've been feeding to the animals I have. One neighbor wants some this year and what else I figure I can sell I'll take to an auction over the winter. Right now hay is bringing next to nothing there.

how big are those bales? 4x5? 4x4? how much you get for each one if you sell?

[@Mad_Farmer912]

Being a German made baler it's considered 4x4 meters. Being a soft core baler and the way it makes a bale when I measure them the final size is 4.5 ft diameter x 4 ft wide. Last year I sold wrapped baleage that I made for $50. And for dry hay I want to get $40 but sold to the neighbor out of the field for $35.
