That is not the greatest looking hay, but then I don't know where it is or what kind of grass is there. It is not my experience that you are going to sell 40 acres of erosion bales for 2-3 bucks a bale. I have dumped poor hay for cattle feed in a pinch, but those people usually want it for next to nothing. You can do some testing if you want and inputs if you want, but I would wait and see what grows this Spring and go from there. Get a feel for what the mix is like. That will tell you a lot about what to use, if anything, as inputs. Hay is hard work and I would think twice before I started boosting yield unless I had help lined up. Expect your help to be "unavailable" on the day you bale, so watch the weather because your "no pressure" hay project can become a pressure cooker in a hurry. It doesn't have to be a big deal. Let it grow, cut it down and bale it. Count your bales and balance that with the work and what you get per bale and then decide if you want to do more. Remember the biscuits? There really isn't a recipe! :)

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
