[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1649070, member: 498"] How much does your power cost? I know a guy here who has two pivots covering 100 acres. He gets 2 cuttings. His power bill is over $6,000 a year. And with all the hydra power the PNW has cheap electricity. Do you have 3 phase power? You need to move a lot of water to irrigate 100 acres. It will take a big hp pump to move that much water. Those K-line systems work good in a pasture but in a hay field every time you move it you are dragging over the grass knocking it down. And how many K-lines you figure to use? I know a guy who uses them. He has 2 for 30 acres. [/QUOTE]
