    Month you start feeding hay

    Simple question: Where you live and when do you have to put out your first bale of hay? We are in central Indiana and almost every year like clockwork I have to start feeding hay the week before thanksgiving and stop feeding last week of March/first week of April.

    alfalfa didn't sprout??

    I plated a 10 acre field into alfalfa the 2ND. week of aug.(central Indiana area). We have had a terrible drought and the seed has not sprouted at all. Am I screwed, or will the seed be o.k. until spring rains hit us? The only other option I have now is the frost seed some clover in it this feb.

    cultipacking

    I screwed up last year and disked and reseeded a 5 acre field. Unfortunately when I reseeded it was wet and I cut ruts in the field. Will running a cultipacker over it now hurt the clover growing. Is there a certain stage the clover is in that would not hurt it if I tried to level the field out...

I was happy...

    Bull age

    How young would you let a bull breed some cows. 12 months,16 months etc etc. Lets say just 4 cows,so he isn't overwhelmed and misses some.
