## What is Hay Price Calc?

Buy hay the smart way! Many horse owners and hobby farmers purchase hay by the bale. However, the more economical way to purchase and compare different hay types is to calculate the price per ton. The aim of the Hay Price App is to aid hay buyers in calculating price per ton and to provide cost comparisons of small square, large round, and large square-bales. Hay buyers simply select the bale type, enter in the bale weight and price per bale, and the Hay Price App calculates price per ton, allowing the buyer to compare and choose the most economical hay. This app does not take into account hay quality when determining economics.

## Key features

- Calculate price per ton

### 1/5 — Doesn’t do much

*2020-08-19*

The only thing this does is to you the cost per pound, if you have the prices. 

I was trying to find out the cost for the ton and it doesn’t do that. 

Kind of a waste of time and the $.99

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2019-09-06*

I was expecting this app to calculate cost per lb based on daily consumption of hay based on poundage

### 5/5 — Just Perfect!

*2017-09-27*

Quick and easy! Must have app for livestock feeding.  👍🐴
