Oklahoma alfalfa yields average 79 tons per acre from first two cuttings at eight dollars per ton, signaling high cash value per acre of about 1437. With seed crop pending and potential for two to three more cuttings, alfalfa appears the most profitable crop when land is suitable. Only 170000 acres are dedicated to alfalfa, far below ideal levels, and kaffir corn occupies about 371406 acres. Experts say farming should be a business rather than speculation, anticipating growth to five times current alfalfa acreage as conditions improve.
Weather and crop notes from Oklahoma discuss a year likely similar in total crop value to 190 percent but with risks from rain scarcity. Dry spells reduced corn yields despite cultivation, hay remains scarce with losses possible from spoilage, and baling storage is urged. Tree care and bermuda lawn maintenance near doors is advised to preserve shade and curb growth.
