Book Description
To most effectively "sell the hay," it is important to evaluate the best balance between what is profitable and beneficial. This record book is helpful to farmers utilizing a grass-hay operation whose primary focus is on maintaining the quantity and quality of the grasses to be sold for profitability. This standard annual record book consists of enough space to record up to 10 grass, hay and pasture fields. In the past, old-timer's relied on visual inspection of the colors, the varying shades of green, or brown, in the fields themselves to determine the need for fertilization. They also visually inspected the growing grasses, and developing seed heads, to determine the times to cut, or mow, the grasses in the hay fields. This record book offers a consistent written method of record keeping beneficial to the modern day farmer. This record book was created for the farmer and tax preparer, providing a basic, time efficient, record-keeping log book compatible with the Schedule F (Form 1040), "Profit or Loss From Farming" form.
