[QUOTE="AllForage, post: 835185, member: 14878"] I agree on the good farmland point. Around here we have land renting up to $100 per acre because of kraut factories. Nobody will sign long term leases for fencing to pay so you have to own. Which in a way raises costs. We are experimenting with greeenleaf corn grazing as our rotation crop. Then back to pasture. I use alfalfa as an indicator of needing renovation. Once it drops below 40% percent we lose too much tonnage. I don't fertilize either except compost. Clover doesn't do us much good as we hay all pasture at some point and it does not like to dry here. Also after too many wet seasons clay pastures take a real beating. Killing plants and inviting thistles. [/QUOTE]
