Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Marketing Hay Through Terminal Markets
TO market his hay successfully the shipper must first know the requirements Of the various available markets, as to the character Of hay and the size and weight Of bales. Some markets pay a premium for straight unmixed timothy hay; others pay as much for good light clover mixed as for straight timothy. Large bales weighing from 200 to 250 pounds sell at higher prices than the smaller bales in some markets while in others the opposite is true. In some sections hay must be tagged with the weight upon each bale, in other sections such weights will not be accepted. The shipper must, therefore, familiarize himself with all the conditions and must also select honest and reliable receivers. TO obtain this information and experience may require several years, depending upon the ability Of the shipper.
