Number 1? Hay. Started with hay and still hay. Really like doing hay but let's be clear...it is REALLY hard work. So I keep the hay down to a modest amount. A few years back I had the chance to buy what remained of a 176 year old dairy operation. Buildings all gone and parts of it gone to he!! and rented by a local BTO who only cared what he could get out of it. He had really done some damage by taking out tree lines and changing watersheds. Erosion was a problem and the place needed help. So I doubled his rent and set about fixing the place up. Took a few years but just this past season I took over one of the fields and planted it in corn. He did the rest in soy. Next year I take over the rest and will plant it in corn while rotating the first field into something else. It has been in corn/soy/wheat for about 6 years now. Row crops are different than hay and I am learning as I go.
