Rained on alfalfa.....what's it worth?

mardi 25 juillet 2017

Had some alfalfa get rained on in the windrow two days in a row. One field was black, slimey, and moldy so I know it's junk but the other field didn't get enough rain to soak the windrow all the way through and it was salvageable. I know it's not horse hay but im thinking it might be good cow hay. The exterior of the windrow got kind of a funky smell and is completely bleached out but it did not mold or must. I kicked the windrows out with the Tedder yesterday and got it raked back up and baled this morning. It doesn't have a lot of color but doesn't smell too bad now that it is dried back out and is not molded. I baled it in 4x5 net wrapped rolls. Any idea on how to price this hay and what it would be worth? There are no other round bales of alfalfa sold around here so I have nothing to price it against. If it had not got rained on it would have been square baled and sold for $300 a ton.
