Cutting/baling for others is a good idea. There's a couple of farmers around here that do that, on halves. Works good for landowners that don't have any equipment, but that need the hay.

It costs 25 to 28 bucks to get big round bales baled in my area.  One of my friends grosses 75 to 80 thousand dollars each summer baling hay.  His college age sons do most of the work.  It is paying for their college education.  You just have to be able to make the simple repairs to the baler.
