I just happened onto your blog by chance and find it very interesting. We live and farm in the foothills of the Ozark mountains in Arkansas. Most of our fields lie along creeks and streams so none of them are perfectly flat like yours. We are contract poultry growers for Tyson Foods and raise black Angus cattle. So we use poultry litter on the hay fields. We silage most of the first cutting in the spring whenever it's difficult to find a time when the weather is just right. I rake for my husband, we're both in our upper 70s, and I also call myself a FarmHer. Country life is the best, isn't it!

ReplyDelete"Job done" is always a good label!
ReplyDeleteI told you earlier that we make John Deere tractors here in Ankeny, Iowa. I am sure there must be factories there that create them too.
ReplyDeleteCompleting a job is a good feeling. : )
