[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1034366, member: 9096"] Kathie,We got lucky up here, we had a 2 week opening in the beginning of June and I got most of my first cut done, then we had bad weather here in the second half of june, I just got the last of my first cut in yesterday My numbers are about like this 20 acres yielded about 1400 80lb bales of alfalfa/OG/Timothy mix an tired old pasture field of 9 acres yielded 250 bales of "horse candy" I'm going to be charging about $12/bale for that stuff, you just can't find hay that nice anywhere. I've got one freshly seeded field with an oat/barley cover crop that'll probably come off in a month, figure another 300 bales or so there I got pretty lucky with my hay, didn't get any rain on any of it... one of our neighbours (who sells ALL his hay, has no cows) had a field laying while we had the bad weather... it turned out really brown [/QUOTE]
