New Farming Opportunity - Hay for the Winter - The Worst Part of the Farm and The Plan to Improve It

Opportunity Costs - we want to expand our acreage, knocking on doors of neighbors and offering row-cropping rent, but no takers.  But we’ve finally got a new opportunity to expand for next year.  This has sparked the conversation on opportunity costs, for example, we could move the Northern MN to get more land for less dollars, but we would have less fertility and a smaller customer base.  What else is there to consider?  Have you made changes to your farm based off of opportunity costs?

Hay for the winter - although they have an open salad bar, the sheep started eating the hay bales that we’ve placed in the field for winter eating.  We will need to keep them from eating their winter food so we placed some wire around the bales as a deterrent.
