Prices for Corn Stover Delivery

I have recently talked with folks at the NCDA and we have prices available for direct shipment of corn stover hay to Boone and surrounding areas! Remember that if you are interested in purchasing corn stover, you need to act fast! The hay is located in Whitakers, NC and is owned by Joel and Jean Boseman (252) 904-1055. Bales are 5x5, net wrapped, weigh 1200 lbs and are $12/bale. Don Justus Trucking, 800-446-6617, is available and hauls 34 bales at a time. The following are costs of hay plus delivery to various locations:

• Boone: $33/bale
• Lenoir: $31.75/bale
• Hickory: $30.12/bale
• Taylorsville: $29.55/bale

Keep in mind that $12 of the cost goes to the Bosemans and the rest is paid directly to the trucker. Also, half of the transportation is eligible for cost-share in the NCDA's Golden Hay Relief program. If you think you'll need corn stover to help extend your hay, please contact the Boseman's and Justus Trucking NOW! If you don't have adequate area to get a tractor-trailer turned around in or don't need all 34 bales, please let me know and we'll get something worked out, 828-264-3061.
