Just to clear up the price a little, the prices mentioned were based on a 35
lb. bale which is all we can get into a bale without breaking a lot of
bales. The kids like them that light also. The price figures out to be
between $57 and $86 per ton out of the barn in peak season. All prices would
be affected by supply and demand.
Go with God,
Paul
