Hay Fields - starting one

Posted by ChrisL on July 30, 2005 at 06:26:08 from (152.163.101.13):

Thanks to lots of folks on this site I have got my H running pretty good.

Now for the next step;

I have 30 acres of lightly wooded rolling land, mostly thick with saplings. I want to make a hay field, maybe 10 acres, so the following questions:

How do I make a hay field ?

I have a little OC3 that I can push off the rocks and stumps, but then what do I need to do, how do I plant the seed, what kind of seed and what implements will I need to plant, cut and bail ?

I’m thinking of putting 3 point on the back of the H

I thinking I need to go work for a local farmer for free just to learn. anyone need free help in return for some lessens

thanks from a farming rookie in southern Maine
