First cut

[Limomike]

We just finished baling one 30 acre portion, and actually got 64 big round bales. Most we ever got out of that. I cant wait to see what we get out of the 80 acres in the bottom land. Its going to have to dry out a bit more before cutting it though.

We finished baling 17 acres of a portion of 80 acres, and got 62 bales! Figure that up for the whole 80. (I lost my calculator) :shock:

limo I believe that will be about 292. Don't hold me too it( might have lost my touch since the summer started). But thats over 3.5 an acre. We just got 45 on about 20 acres that the grass was real thin on, which was a pleasant surprise. good luck with the rest and let me know how close i was

 

[Limomike]

DBC.. I will do that.. If you are correct, it will be the best haying season we have ever had.
