FarmRanger, I believe you make some very valid points. The discussion re nutrient depletion is important, but the point of knowing baling costs is really important. Baling anything is far from free. The capital costs are significant and operating costs are going through the roof. In my budget $15/mt is barely a breakeven when labor is included.
Iogen looked at our community in southern MB first. The local straw "co-op" wouldn't give the straw up at breakeven so Iogen moved on. I hope producers really examine all their costs before signing a lowball deal they may regret later.
