You're nuts. But, many go down that path to have some fun, so you aren't the first. ;) ;)
14 acres of hay should put up enough hay to feed 25 head of big critters. Making hay is easy to learn, costs $5000 in equipment, and takes a lifetime to master - makeing the hay is _Very_ time sensitive to make good hay, so is difficult to do even if you don't have a real job.
Putting out 2 critters on land you don't live on is pretty messy - watering, and checking on daily.... She's nuts....
1.5 acres really isn't enough to graze on, you need a 1/2 acre of a yard for wet/winter/ bad times. Then a 2 acre - or bigger for more critters, and once she gets 2, she;ll have more - pasture to keep them well-grazed. Be best if that was split into 2 seperate pastures so you can graze one, rest the other one, grows and feeds much better.
I'd sure fence in some of the unused land and let the farmer rent the good land.
No good, only costs and expense, can come from this, might as well continue to try to make some money from the property. Making the field smaller or a fence on the side makes it worth less and less to farm, oddball corners and such just mess up farmland in rowcrops.
Good luck with it, and people have done more foolish things than this, so my message is accurate, but in jest. :)

It didn't have a pressure release or electric start to facilitate easy starting but according to the instructions, simply pulling on the trigger while cranking was sufficient.
