All you experienced guys should be able to help out an inexperienced land owner. I have 11 acres in eastern NE. 8~9 in alfalfa (ranger?) and timothy that the previous owners' renter put in last year. He took one cutting off off it last year. Coming up real nice this year. Making money off it is not first priority, but it wouldn't hurt. The main reason for planting anything is an erosion problem on one side of the property. The second is just for the wildlife, pheasants. So the questions; what is the impact of not cutting it? Is it better to go ahead and cut it and leave it lay (8N with 5ft KK) or is it OK to just leave it stand? If the renter would want the alfalfa, what's it worth? I know it's a hard question to answer. Just looking for some kind of starting point so as to not sound too stupid. Last year he baled it into the large round bales. Some other time I'll post about getting rid of the d*&n siberian elm trees growing in part of the alfalfa, must be 1000 of them starting to come up. Thanks guys. Brian S, NE
