The costs to cut,rake and bale here in NC is around $.75 per bale. Since this is nonirrigated land two cuttings are reasonable. You did not state the type of grass that you would be harvesting. There are lots of variables associated with the volume of hay produced. I would expect the total yield per acre to average 100 bales. This may be low but some years the weather just will not cooperate. If you get more that will just be a bonus. You must have dry storage and if you can locate enough horse hay buyers you should be able to increase the price for quality hay. Cattle producers will not want to pay more than $1.25 per square bale. Best other outlet will be hobby farmers.
