[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1507342, member: 968"] One year, I grazed one half of a field twice and not the other. The two grazings were probably within a 10-14 day period. We ended up with too much pasture, so we hayed both halves. Got exactly the same from each side. I don't own any hay equipment except the spears on my old tractor. I am EXTREMELY lucky that I have a neighbor that has been doing my hay for maybe 30 years. He does all of his own, then helps another dairy farm, then mine. The timing is usually perfect - mid June. Last year - not so much - but not because I relied on someone else - just tooooo wet to hay on any land. Ended up with mid to late July hay. Condition of cows really showed it this winter/spring, but they are quickly putting weight back on now that they are on full grazing. [/QUOTE]
