[QUOTE="novatech, post: 359767, member: 5494"] Last year I did a 50/50 split. He paid for half the fert and seed. He did all the dirt work and we split the cost of the planting. This year he is going to furnish everything, and I keep every fifth bale. General info.for the area. Hay selling for $60.00 per roll Rolls are about 1000 lbs Planting with no till $14.00 per acre Dirt work ? Depends on the dirt. Type of hay? Usually Hay Grazer around here. Be careful if they are selling hay they do not care much about the quality, they may let it get way to stemmy before they cut. Did you do a soil test? Most of the guys around here think all you need is nitrogen. They are very old school, meaning no disrespect. Big question. Although hay prices are high, when you do the math,do not forget to account for the value of pasture you will be looseing. That 13 acres will cost you 3 to 5 cows not being able to graze.
