Last year was the first we cut hay. Our farm had neglected fields and we had not done anything to them. We got 18 bales first cutting and 10 in the fall off about 11 acres. Since then we put down two applications of lime and one of litter. I've over seeded and sprayed weeds. We just took 50 bales off the same 11 acres. I am amazed how taking care of a field will pay off. The pics are of my neighbor and his son who make our hay for 3/5's share.
