BaleWiseFlorida hay market
What hay costs in Florida
BaleWise tracks 72 hay sellers in Florida — 14 with listed prices, verified July 26, 2026. Every price is normalized to true cost per US ton (2,000 lb) so a heavy bale and a light bale compare honestly.
Small square bales run $311–1200 per US ton across 6 priced listings, with a midpoint of $648/ton. Sticker prices run $7.00–$27.00 per bale — bale weight is what moves the true cost. Round bales: $163–333/ton across 6 priced listings.
Fair-price verdicts below are judged against the Gulf market midpoint — the same yardstick the live board uses. For distances from you, ZIP search, and price alerts, head to the full board.
