Kind of hard to say, but if it keeps the wife happy, or at least somewhat so, what is that worth? The little acreage where we live is only 5 acres, almost 2 is in the yard and buildings, leaves 3 that COULD be farmed instead of horse pasture. I typically take one cutting off the pasture during the summer, but not really the best hay, anyone who has horses will understand what I mean, a few too many weeds under the horse grazing. Most of my hay comes from a few other small patches around the area, some of it waterways that the owners are glad to have mowed, and some I have to do on shares or buy out their share. But, back to horse cost per year, I would guess at least 1K per horse, we have 2. Both are young, have traded hay for training, so kind of hard to really know a true figure. In 06 hay was quite plentiful, that was when majority of training was done, but had attitude adjustments done on both this spring with more hay traded. Makes it a little hard to show income/loss on the farm schedule on the traded hay. Not black and white like the grain from the farm back in Nebraska. DOUG

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
