We have had some guys around here that would mow land they had no right to. After a few years of the owner not complaining (absentee, doesn't care, etc.) they get to feeling they have a right to it. they become "squatters". Some have had the gall to tell new owners it was theirs to bale. They can get pretty hot trying to protect what is not theirs. I have taken over a few of those, and a friendly talk to the guy has usually resolved it. in one case the guy came in and mowed thinking he was going to bale it. I called him and thanked him for mowing it, but I would go ahead and bale it, asked him what his fair share should be. He said half. I said OK and small square baled it. He had no use for small bales and never picked up his part, so I cleaned the field and he never said anything else about it.
All I would do is talk to him and explain the owners wanted you to bale it and he may fade away.
Maybe John T can comment on getting paid. Their liability may be less if they don't pay you for a service, and if they do pay you they may expect you to bale it when it grows a little and is unsightly.
Best deal s to figure what it would be worth to you to mow it and see if they would spring for mowing. I'd mow forty acres like a lawn for my price.

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
