[QUOTE="georgiabob, post: 1728586, member: 41912"] Run the numbers on planting winter forage that includes legumes vs the cost of the hay. Clover may reseed itself do the second year you can cut part of the seed cost out. It and other legumes will add nitrogen to the soil. I’m in a similar situation to you and .55 a day/head isn’t that bad early in the game. The goal is to get to a point of relying on forage as much as possible. I have a day job and i’m just trying to break even as i build and improve and add more fence. The tax breaks are the bulk of what i’d consider “profit” for now. [/QUOTE]
