So I have a 1.5 acre field that I was planning to use for hay, but despite best efforts I can’t find anyone that’s willing to cut/ted/small bale it.
It’s got pretty long now and it’s starting to flatten. What should I do with it now? Someone suggested letting it go over and then get sheep to graze it (as the bottom of the grass will be accessible); someone else says it’ll wreck the field if left like that.
I’m not happy about it. It’s the only field that is tractor accessible so from an economical view it wasn’t worth buying a tractor and attachments to do it myself. I think I had rose-tinted thoughts when I moved here that I’d find at least one person in the area that would be willing to lend a hand, and it wasn’t as if I was looking for it to be done for free.
Anyway, any suggestions welcome, although I can foresee a long day strimming...
