I have 15 acres of pure alfalfa that I want to sell first crop off of.
The stand is 4 years old, but still very dense. No weeds whatsoever. Got potash two years ago. Foliar fed 3 applications last year.
First crop last year I harvested right around 9.5 4x4 round silage bales (at 50%) per acre. Im not sure how much the stand has thinned since last year, but growth so far is very good.
I know this is probably highly dependant upon the region you live in, but how much is standing first crop worth? Just looking for some ballpark ideas. Thanks
