Commodity: Limestone, a sedimentary rock that is dominantly composed of the calcium-bearing carbonate minerals calcite and dolomite. Calcite is chemically calcium carbonate (formula CaCO3). Dolomite is chemically calcium-magnesium carbonate (formula CaMg(CO3)2).n calcite, carbonate is chemically combined with calcium to form calcium carbonate (formula CaCO3). In dolomite, carbonate is chemically combined with calcium and the element magnesium (symbol Mg) to form calcium-magnesium carbonate (formula CaMg(CO3)2).
That is as little as $10.00 to $15.00 for mix grass baled in 1,000 to 1,200 round hay bales. The going price in my area to cut, rake, and bale this hay in 1,000 to 1,200 pound rolls is $10.00 per bale. Wow! Kentucky farmers are making a killing, if they sell these round hay bales for $10.00.
A round bale weighs anything from 700 to 2000 pounds on average in the USA. A small square bale weighs from 40 to 100 pounds and large square bales weigh from 140 to 2000 pounds depending on how they were baled. So a 700 pound round bale could contain 17.5 small 40 pound bales or 5 of the 140 lb large squares. A 2000 lb round bale could contain 50 of the small 40 lb bales, 14.3 of the 140 lb bales, or one of the 2000 lb bales.
