Jewell County KS | Neighbor had a piece of grass with a little alfalfa sprinkled throughout (26 acres) that I have been putting up on shares for several years split 50/50. They mentioned yesterday that may need all the hay for their cows this year and are wanting me to put it up for custom rate.
Most years I can cut it twice but many times some of it is not worth swathing and I just skip that spot. I have gotten around 32 bales on a good year and 6 or 8 on bad year. This will be a bad year I am afraid.
Swath, rake and round bale and stack in field.
How would you charge? By the acre? By the hour? By the bale?
9980 MF swather
Vermeer VR1428 wheel rake
Vermeer 605n with netwrap
Thanks
