I have always managed to live on property that has clay soil. I have a chance to by a property that has very sandy soil. It used to be a melon farm and is partially wooded. It is located in Southern Indiana. The fields have been neglected for years.
My question is: would the open fields grow hay well enough to feed cattle or horses? I have no experience with sandy soil and I don't want to make the wrong decision. Is there anything special that I need to watch out for? Thanks
