Hay Dude: sounds like you are well into the hay bidness. I have only 20ac hay fields, & have dabbled in selling, leasing hay, etc. but not investing in equip in my 47 yr tenure of my place.
but i have invested heavily in landscape improvement over the years. In terms of climate turmoil, my trees have suffered heavily esp w/polar vortex, etc. i have irrigation tho
climate extremes certainly have taken their toll. glad i don't make my living in agri. I would be interested to hear how your bidness has survived given those extremes & how you see your future in hay bidness with our uncertain climate, regards,
