[QUOTE="jack.diamond, post: 384429, member: 4708"] Jo, How much prior rainfall did you get in order to cut that many rolls of hay per acre ?? What size bales were you getting ?? We have gotten more rain this year than in several past years past (knock on wood here). I had hay cut and baled last week on a ten plus acre field. 28 rolls of hay 5 x 6 were made. Have the fertilizer scheduled for Friday of this week to see if we can get a second cutting on the field this year. My wife pushed the pencil on these rolls of hay and it really scared me, we have about $67 per roll in each of them. Still this is cheaper than what I paid last year including what I had to buy for the drought. If we make the second cutting, these numbers should come down some, spreading some of the lime costs and seeding over a larger number of bales. Jack [/QUOTE]
