Looks like some johnsongrass in there too. Cattle are going to be in the candy shop there.

If i wasn’t going to brush hog it then I would leave it. I certainly wouldn’t be going through the expense and work of bailing ‘black goo’. Lol. Mowing it is sort of a middle ground. You break up the thatch and plants and it will break down faster. You will get some regrowth of something...

Here, you aren’t. Not this thick and not in just a little over 24 hours.

Hay guy cut ours on Monday and finished in the evening. Yesterday was low 70’s and today it was in the 60’s and he was baling? No way it’s dry…he couldn’t finish what he raked because it started raining and of course the rest if the field he had laying and tedded is rained on.

I'd brush hog it.

A couple years ago I was experimenting with bale grazing. I flipped the bales ends up because I wanted to be able to cut and take the strings off when it came time. Those bales were out for a good while like that soaking up quite a bit of rain. I didn't have to feed all of them so the last 7 or...

Ammonium Sulfate.

Is it common in your area to use a tedder? I say that because some places don’t but here you won’t see anyone making hay without one.

I have red clover that does well every year in my hayfield. I know people say it needs reseeded but that has not been my experience. I have had this place 7 years and it is still going strong and I would bet just about anything the previous owners haven’t seeded it either.

I have about 20 acres give or take stockpiled but I am keeping the cows close to the barn feeding hay while I decide whether or not im just going to sell them.

I have not. Just too many irons in the fire right now and the new hay guy is not letting the JG get very tall before he is cutting it so all is good as of now. Maybe some day though.

My JD dealer sells brand new jd 450e balers (netwrap) for $27,499. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of course and probably not something i would have a hay business with but for a small farm that had to make their own hay? Maybe?

I run a pretty small herd so I can graze as much as possible and get by with only having to have 1/3 of my hayfied. I let the guy that feeds hay all year long make my hay. He does run a lot more cattle so he can say that… When he quits I will have to get in or get out because there is not a...

I think you will be better off with that one, it’s well built. Just a tip you probably already know but I didn’t is you only need to drive those spikes in basically just far enough to clear any gates you will be going through. 8” or so? Depends on the size of bale. For whatever reason I had a...

last time I talked to anyone from hay b gone was back in 2019. The owners number that I have is 864-323-3060. His name is Baron. I will tell you how my experience went. As you can see in my post you quoted I had talked to the owner and he was supposed to make a trip up my way and was going to...

Mowing is not done very easy and I won’t take a tractor on a lot of it. I do think I could use a track loader with brush mower attachment but….$$$

Cedar is out of control in this area so that was one thing among other ‘junk’ I was thinking about. Likelihood of a burn here is pretty slim. Mainly, I just look at my property that the previous owner let go and wish I could just torch the place. 😆

Gallia. I think the difficulty with my place would be the terrain at the property boundaries. I can’t imagine it being easy to put in breaks to prevent burning up my neighbors places. I have in-laws on the one side of me as well. Lol.

I wish burning was more common here. I’d love to light my entire property but nobody does it that I know of and I am not brave enough. Lol.

If you have a well built one there is no reason not to carry the bale with the unroller.
