Thinking about leasing some property within 1/2 mile of our place for making square bales of hay. 7-10 acres max.
Fields are there, but neglected and basically a patch of weeds. My responsibility would be total rejuvenation of the fields, lime, fertilizer,
herbicides, seeding, etc - and then taking off the hay. The owner would basically get a field that will not grow into a wilderness in exchange for
me making hay on it.
Nothing is free so what would be fair compensation per acre and terms/time of the lease you would recommend.
Thanks!
