[QUOTE="dun, post: 22529, member: 34"] The suggestions to find a mentor and lease out grazing are both solid. With leasing, you will need someone that is knowledgable to make recommendations and keep you from getting burned. You might look to your local USDA NRCS office or the University Extension Service. If the place lends tself to it, haying it and marketing the excess hay could give you a bit of an edge. Just remember that anything removed from the land needs to go back in to maintain the requied level of nutrients to keep it healthy. On our excess pasture we get a bunch of stockers and run them for 90 days or so, that's to just keep a little ahead of the grass. Then they get shipped, and we hay some of the remaining pasture and graze others. There are just so many alternatives, and what works in this part of the country may not be prectical in others. dun [/QUOTE]
