Let the buyer do all the work, this let’s him control the hay crop and it’s his issue for hay quality. If you cut it and it rains, it’s your fault. If you cut it late, poor quality is your fault.
Who deals with fertility, good hay needs fertilizer, with you involved is it your crop or his crop, who pays to fertilize it?
I wouldn’t do it that way.
Rent the land by the acre, and let him take care of it. For a hay crop you want a 3-5 year lease and there would be a bonus payment for an established good fertile hay crop as it takes a year to establish that, he needs to buy into it with the bonus payment.

Good hay is worth a lot but costs a lot to maintain. Crappy old hay is fun to play with but often not worth the effort to a real Production cattle guy.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction?
