price hay in cornwall

[basil99]

I wondered if any one has bought new small bale hay off the field yet. I have been offered some by a local farmer but I have not idea how much people are paying this year. I pay a price per bale and live in mid cornwall. Any guidance would be appreciated.

what are you paying?

This is my problem he always asks me what the going rate is and I know he makes really good size good quality bales so i don`t want to be unfair on price.

£2 to £2.50

Last year J was paying £3 p/b....this year she grew her own!

I sound like I'm talking about myself...J is C's owner lol

I usually pay £2 and that is delivered

I pay £1.50 and collect off the field in devon good quality heavy bales, hay I have watched grow with no chance of ragwort.
