The extra cost of savings of course depends on how much you are currently spending. If you are paying $7.50 for a 75lb bale, here's how your costs would change using an affordable fodder to grow your feed:
Column 1: # horses Column 2: $/month for alfalfa Column 3: $/mo for Fodder-Dry mix** Column 4: Cost of Fodder Machine Column 5: Monthly Payment for Machine*** Column 6: Total Cost/mo Fodder/Dry Feed and Machine Column 7: Saving/mo While Paying off Machine Column 8: Savings/mo After Paying off Machine
