A west-central Minnesota farmer hauled in an outstanding first crop of hay.

Kirby Hettver of De Graaf says he wrapped up the first cutting of alfalfa last week.

“I’ve never chopped a hay crop as large as what we had this first cutting. We’re really blessed with a great first crop of hay in terms of tonnage.”

Hettver likes to harvest every three to four weeks and tells Brownfield dryness is a concern going forward.
