Howdy,

Well, after all was said and done we got all the first cutting put up this week. With the drought that S. Ohio is now in I don't know if there'll be a second cutting this year. Just have to wait and see. In any case, now I know what Allan's hay season is usually like. Hay did produce good for us though. Got better than a hundred bales to the acre in most places. Alot of folks are putting in half crops this year or less. It'll be interesting to see what the hay market does this winter. I've already just about sold out of one part of my first cutting. Never had that happen before. Here's a photo of the cutting rig. 1958 John Deere 720 and a 1209 JD haybine.

Thanks for the pics. You did better than I did last weekend. 14 round bale off of 25 acres that usually produces 45 plus. This is the second year in a row we are in a major drought. First cutting rounds already over $40 a bale and $4 square. If we don't get rain it is going to get really ugly.
