Often you can get small time loggers to do work that the big boys won't. The good thing about that is with smaller equipment they usally can do it with less damage to the land.

Here would be my questions I would ask MYSELF (I have the equipment to do all this already but, you may not).... how much money do I have to work with including fertilizer, lime, soil prep (fuel) and finally the actual seed. Do I have the money to "burn" every year feeding deer if I didn't I would look into what I'm already getting this year Wapsie corn. It is an open pollinated dent corn and I plan on saving enough seed to replant next year saving myself the money that I'd spend in seed. If I had the equipment and the time I would consider R.R. Alfalfa and sell off the bales and make a little money.
I don't have bailing equipment, but anything else you can imagine I probably got it.

And that's what I do. Our last logger (which we were thrilled with) was just a father and son operation. They were slow, but they were good!

Too bad they've retired. Now I'm looking for another logger. Lots of patches of timber yet to be cut!
