Drought and heat have curbed hay production in Texas, leaving supplies low and the cost of hay bales high. Producers were looking for alternatives to feed in place of hay. When hay is plentiful, it sells for about $120 per bale. In 2022, the price climbed to $160. This year the cost has been about $140.
