Large bale hay, weight and prices anybody?

[custard]

Can anyone tell me how much the large rectangular bales of hay actually weigh in kg and what's the going price at the moment?

dont know how much they weigh, but my uncles a farmer and he sells them for £22 i think. (we're in devon) i use his hay, and a large rectangle bale (one that onyl a tractor can move)lasted my horse just over a month, with one large haynet a day.

Yeah I pay £25 in Berkshire for the huge rectangular bales.

The small hay bales probably weigh around 27kg (60lb)

So I would have thought 1 of the large rectangular bales was equivalent to 8-10 small bales? So approx 216-270kg??

Just a guesstimate!!
