[QUOTE="rc, post: 566329, member: 878"] I have on hand one new tractor, one decent Ford 5000 tractor for raking and back up, new Case IH square baler, good rake and cutter, JD round baler and a 80/64 foot barn for storage. I plan to buy an accumulator and grapple from Haymaster for loading squares. As has been said here before you got to know when to hold em and .... Well my thoughts are selling the cows and doing the hay thing and see how it goes and at least I'll get my pastures in tip top shape. It's a very dry year here again and If I do sell I'll have about 100 rolls I can sell. Square bermuda here is going for 5 to 5.50 in the field and right now 6.50 in the barn. I look for that to go way up again this year. I couldn't have livestock if I didn't do hay. Right now I'm still working full time so it's not going to break us and I can take off when needed to do baling etc. I took a load of calves to the sale last week and they averaged 1.02 per pound on 400 lb. average. Bred heifers should do pretty well. [/QUOTE]
