I'd try a few things. 1. Just look around for pasture that isn't being used or cut in your general area. You will probably find some and find there is some absentee landlord who you just need to locate and reach out to. SCS offices may know if the local land guide or a neighbor doesn't know.
2. Go talk to the big and even small crop farmers in your area. Some get so big it is a real pain to take care of all the haying during harvest, etc. so they may have some or know some you can get. They may have waterways that they would let someone deal with so they can make the big bux on 13 dollar beans.
3. Talk to the other hay cutters. They tend to move around and get into disagreements with landlords and they would know if there is some they can't handle or get to cause it is all a matter of timing between rains, harvest, and everything else. A cutter can only do so much cause you have to stop to bale at some point once it is on the ground.
4. Landowners who have cutters may be tired of the ones they are using. We had a guy we know cut ours. But he make it clear at the start that he had a number of customers already besides his own farm and that we would be last on the list to cut. We lived with that arrangement until one wet year when he didn't get to it at all plus some others. Decided to find someone different. Same goes for you or any other cutter, don't make it somewhere or if they are cutting way past prime time and don't get good quality hay, then they will change and may just not know who else is out there.
You have to decide how far you want to road your equipment and haul bales. Just run some hay ground wanted ads in area papers and the online for sale places like facebutbook and craigscrookedlist.
