When do they generally bale the first cutting of alfalfa?Â
ANYONE?
In Missouri in a good year we get 3 cuttings. Late May, early July and late August. Then we have some growth for pasture over the winter for whatever you want to put on it, or leave it open for the deer. Makes for good hunting. OR you can try for a 4th cutting if you get enough rain in Aug and Sept. (Normally we don't) |

But I'm paying just under $7 a bail for grass alfalfa mix (50/50 or 60/40), but I'm buying it by the ton. Around here you can usually purchase 1st cutting hay around the 4th of July. 2nd cutting is available for purchase usually by 1st to mid September. Around here it usually doesn't stay warm enough or moist enough to get more than 2 cuttings.

I see. You want to play hard ball. How about a sack of pecans for 5 bales?? Even if you don't eat pecans, you can sell them to the Canadians for mucho dinero's  |

We eat pecans! Last time we were in Kansas we loaded up on pecans because they cost half as much as they do here! If we were doing pound for pound, I think I'd need about 300 pounds of pecans for 300 pounds of hay, LOL. |

Nope. Technically that's part of eating one.
