Tuesday started by cutting 15 acres which produced 54 1700# bales, 3.6 bales per acre - a record. Cut 13 acres on Wednesday and baled today, over 3 bales per acre. Tomorrow we bale the last 12 acres, hoping for a record first cutting and a long rest from 10 hours a day in the tractor. The weather is beautiful and dry so we are delighted...
