Ok yall. You guys have help me alot with getting started with hay. Im completly comfortable witht he hay process and how to run everything. Ive been under, over,between, beside, up and over my equipment and Im pretty smart as to ho it all works. Its very interesting to me. And Ive found out that the more I know my equipment the easier it is to troubleshoot when something goes wrong, and Im learning what my balers like. But I just turned 20. And Im looking for a way to make money farming. Its in my blood and its what Im meant to do. Im wanting to start farming grain. Beans, corn, wheat. Mainly beans. I have property availible. And beans are bring +-$9.50 a bushel and I figured 75 bushel was average per acre. If I had 50 acres thats $36000 gross. If I could make 25000-30000 net a year I would be happy. Im not looking to make a killing right now. But Im just wanting to get started and hopefully build into something bigger later on. I have the college option from my parents but no desire there. Im almost definet if I came up with a plan and a productive way to make this work they will help me get started. But I need advice of does and donts and a step by step plan to la before my parents and say heres my goal in life, help me acheive it. Like I said I dont have to make a killing. Im just wanting to get started. As of right now we have all the hay eqipment, 3 bottom auto trip plow, disc, and several other implements. My plan is to get a grail drill, larger(10ft+) disc, sprayer,cultivator and hopefully find a way to get someone to harvest and haul for me. I can buy good cheap usable combines for less than 4000 practically anytime but Im leaning towards contracting the harvesting and hauling until I get going.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
