This year was a good year for hay. We had plenty of rain and good time windows to harvest hay. We did not due as much hay as last year due to tractor repair that took over a month to repair. We are going to be selling our hay based on either first cut or second for price determination. We will test the hay and this data will be available on request.

We use semi tractor trailer with live floors for deliveries. This  trailer allows the unloading of the round bales without any equipment at the customers location.  

For new customers we require the hay and delivery costs to be paid before delivery.  For repeat customers the hay is delivered and two checks are required one for Baum Farm and other for the trucking company due at delivery.  We do take deposits of at least 10 % to hold the hay prior to delivery.  We do not hold any hay unless we receive a deposit or is for immediate delivery.

Normally we use the RFQ (relative feed quality) to determine the price of the hay.  RFQ combines digestibility, protein level, and energy level into one number that represent the hay feed quality.  A RFQ of 100 is considered a good high quality hay.  In my experience the higher the RFQ the better the animal will eat all the hay.  

Hopefully you will buy our hay and become a returning happy hay customer - Sincerely Rob Baum
