Sorry for this huge loss, I've been by that business several times and always thought with that much hay "what if that were to burn?". It does appear that Bounds' comments are circular, saying that this wouldn't happen if farmers were allowed to burn their fields, then he states that product was being sold to a market in asia. So, isn't that a good thing for Bounds that this marketable product was NOT being burned in farmer's fields? It was smart for this young man to see an opportunity in a changing farm paradigm to find a positive business niche. However, it seems like he still has to repeat the grumblings of old school farmers in regards to the regulation of field burning.  Hay is a renewable resource, carry on young man, learn and move forward.
