Here in Kansas we have a longer growing season and we put up alfalfa later in fall than what you all do. Most farmers here have a crop rotation system and ussually don't plant same crop back to back year after year in the same place. To fit alfalfa into this system ussually means you have it after you plant it untill it becomes pettered out (ussually about 3 to 5 years depending how your stand holds up) and then you plow it under and plant it someplace else and have it there for awhile. Ussually your second year or so is the best year for harvesting hay. If you have the right year you can get 4 cuttings of hay and if you push it you might get 5 but that is pushing it a little far.
