Hi Everyone;
Need your advice and comments on a situation between us and an area farmer that puts up our hay. We have about 100+ acres some distance from us of alfalfa and upland hay ground that we have put up on shares (2/3-1/3). In addition, we furnish 2 tractors, rakes, mower, baler, trailers for him to use at his convenience. He provides the necessary maintenance required on the equipment. He also uses his own machinery that is necessary during the haying season. This year, I assumed that everything was proceeding without problems...until this past weekend, when he informed me that about 40 acres of good hay ground never got cut or baled. This is a good, hard working fellow that is just spread too thin, so I believe him when he tells me that: "He just couldn't get to it". He proceeded to tell me: "To figure up what I think I have coming, and he will settle up." I don't want to let this affect our working relationship; but, I hesitate to just let it slide by as well. My question is: Should I go ahead and arrive at a nominal figure for loss of income, and if so; how do you value uncut crop? Just guess at the number of bales that could have been made times a dollar amount...or? Thanks for your help.

She smoked terribly and never had much power but he couldn't afford another so he was limping along with what he had. Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
