Well, the split sounds about right as you got 45% of the bales. The split is usually 50/50 to 40/60 and I believe it is the hayer that gets the larger split (I'll try to remember to check with my husband when he gets home what the going rate is and how it is split) .We hayed our place this year. Lets just say the hayer was dishonest so only got 86 bales out of the 189 bales that came off our field.
Lesson learn..can't trust anyones word now a days. So next year.. he will have to place a bid and sign a contract. Because his word and agreed on price can't be trusted.
Although, I do agree, it is probably wise to have a written contract with it all spelled out, then there are no questions as to who gets how much.
