When you calculate what your hay costs will be, remember that you are buying it BY THE BALE as this is the legal method of selling hay. To calculate price per ton: Divide 2000 by the weight of the bales, then multiply that by the price of the bale. For example: 2000(one ton) / 80(average bale weight) x $10(price per bale) = $250.
