So I went and looked at some hay ground, marginal at best. 16 acres plus another 2. The 2 acres is old creek bottom and looks really good, probably produce in the 2.5 to 3 ton per acre. The 16 acres(and it's been surveyed by the state, so it's a true 16 acres) is an old road fill from years ago(20 years + or-). The owner bush hogs it twice a year. It's relatively clean mixed grass, mostly fescue with a little clover spread thru it. I did notice a few wild rose bush's, just about ankle high or so, and some old sage grass(needs lime bad I'm sure) It's on the thin side, I'm gonna guess and say it'll produce between a ton and ton and a half per acre. On the plus side it's pretty easy access. Down side is he wants $700 for the first cutting, then he said he'd price per cutting after that. I figure first cutting is gonna have some of the left over trash from last years bush hogging, but it didn't really look that bad. I'm really covered up and don't have the time for it, but good level ground that's easy got to is hard to come by around here. I can't convince myself that it's worth it but knowing how hard ground is to come by around here, it's hard to pass up. Owner also seems to be very particular, but seems to have warmed up to me. Any suggestions?

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
