I don’t want to sound snarky, but welcome to hay farming. Beginners luck will encourage you to do more. Doing more will increase all the ‘bad event’ risks like rain, drought and breakdowns. Then, you start getting experience. You can start controlling the breakdowns by spending hours doing preventative maintenance and have spare parts or even 2x machines. You also need to start getting every weather forecast you can and learning to forecast for yourself too. Living in the SE PA area is frustrating when it comes to weather predictions. We have mountains to the west, an ocean to the east and humidity. If we get rain on our hay, often the humidity level goes way up so the drying slows way down. It either gets brown drying or gets another rain before dry. Just a disaster. No choice but to keep trying and get it off the field. Selling it is not easy and you might eventually get something to cover your actual cost. If you have the space to store and wait.
