I have 100 acres of hay fields and I haven't harvested them yet. Anyone have an estimate?

We feed 35 head of cow plus 35 calves and one bull 180 round 4x5 bales over 90 days so you will need a crap load.

I'm probably going to have to buy some then because I don't have enough. My heard is 130 and I only have a couple hundred bales
