There was discussion earlier about if the farm could do two or three harvests.

Based upon how the first year went I would say the answer is 2.

In 2017, Progreen planted in April and harvested it's first CUT in August (4 months). Second cut in October, third cut in December.

So three cuts per harvest ever other month.

Continuing that trend thru to 2018, you would have cuts in Feb/Apr/Jun/Aug/Nov on the existing 100 acres. I count that as two harvests.

They need the new crop in the ground ASAP and the first cut will be 4 months later, then every two months. So I'm thinking the plan is to 100 acres ready for planting by end of January 2018, another 100 acres by Mid March, and another 100 acres by end of April. This will enable them to stagger the picking schedule so there will always be monthly picking and smoothing out the cash flow for the company.

If weather is too cold in Jan/Feb this blows this forecast up.
