The latest crop profit statistics here in eastern SD have shown that overall, alfalfa is the leader in per acreage profit. This is over the last three years. Alfalfa/timothy, and alfalfa/orchard is really a hi dollar crop. Buyers for that are trying to prepay, and contract to have landowners put it in. Wbat are you planning to plant after you plow that up? And how many acres are there? You'll lose money fast if you try to make a profit on less than 640 acres of corn or beans. Nowadays you have to be out there with 16 row planters and 35 ft combines to show a profit. I'd put 100 lbs of fertilizer on that this fall, and another 50 next spring and see what happens. Start saving for a haybine, v-rake and big round baler. And farm diesel is 1.90 here. GordoSD
