[QUOTE="OTR, post: 5048914, member: 90034"] Hi All, I've recently bought 11 acres of good pasture land in West Oxfordshire with the idea of starting a farming project that I can dedicate 2 days/week (the land is 1:15hr away, and I work 5 days/week in an office job). I'm hoping to move closer in the next 18 months so I can spend more time there. Meanwhile, as weather temperature started rising the grass is getting longer very quickly. Clearly, I have no means to cut it and sell it as hay. If I manage to find a farmer nearby with the equipment to cut it and bale it, is it reasonable to expect some income from that? Clearly it will be on a much reduced price as they have done most of the work. Other suggestions are welcome! [/QUOTE]
