I've got one who will pay, but he only buys a bale at a time. This bigger customer keeps horses in sheds, like we keep cattle, and buys on price but will buy a lot.

Give him a bale , and when he comes for more you can up the price , if it's good stuff he won't quibble on price .... 50 for the 4's and 75 for the sixes

@silverfox can be a middle man on my six stringers for that much and make himself £30 a bale just for haulage if he wants

Thanks Derrick. I realise that the trade is very variable and lots has been made this year. I've a customer with a lot of horses, it's a stud and foaling unit. His own stuff is going straight into his burner, as it got rained on repeatedly. I've got some top notch 4 stringers, that was a few hours off hay, but got wrapped. Smells and looks lovely. They stand me at £13.50 on the yard. Got some big 6 stringers of nice first cut, more silage like, but very dry, which have cost me £17 to get on the yard.they weight 600kgs a bale.
I was going to try for £22 on the 4 string and £32 on the bigger ones, and see what he says.
One of the stallions he's got, cost a million quid, owned by a syndicate.

If he's an end user 25 to 30 would be fair . He can get plenty for that this year

A rough idea on price would be use full as this is straw I have is on a contract farm and until I have an idea of a price the owner will not even think of selling.

Nick Champion had a sale last week at Tenbury Wells,sale report on his website.£16-20 a bale.
