[QUOTE="thatdoggJake, post: 742514, member: 13656"] I'm south of Houston and it has been a long hard winter down here for us (In terms of Texas). In my lease agreement, given there has been enough rain, I have to mow my 500 acres once a year. How would you go about mowing your 500 acre lease land? It is striaght grassland with just a couple trees on the whole place. When should I start mowing? How much should I mow at a time? Since mid December there has been record rain and things are just now finally starting to dry up after a couple months of wet ground. When will I start seeing more green grass? Should I do some soil testing? Should I fertilize or weed kill? I have a ten year lease, but I'm not holding my breathe that it plays out over all ten years for either one reason or another? Oh yeah, and I don't want to go broke. lol ;-) None of the property is crossed fence. Total there is about 80 head on the place with a carrying capacity of about 100 head during an average year. Thanks!!!!! [/QUOTE]
