I have been removing the hay from approx. 50 acres of my property for approx. 12 years now. The past 3-4 years the person that was buying it offered to cut, bale and remove for half, then purchase my half at fair market value. I quickly took him up on his offer. While I realize that this is removing a great deal of nutrients off the fields, fertilizing is not in the equation as the cost of the fertilizer is far more than the payback, so as long as he is willing to remove the hay, and I can at least get some payback and pay a portion of my property taxes (not enough income from the hay to pay my taxes thanks to high local school taxes) I will continue to do so. No cattle on the place since 1999. I have considered letting the fields grow one year and brush hog it down in the fall which would help some, but doubt this would offset the loss of the years crop. I did have a similar situation a few years ago on a place I sold, where a guy wanted to "rent" the place, but when I asked how much he was willing to pay, he quickly informed me he would simply "keep the fences repaired". I sent him on his way.
