Approximately 2,000 tons of hay is annually available for sale. Hay is normally baled in 3-twine bales and stacked in 60 bale squeeze blocks – ready for transport.

The Crump Ranch operates a diversified farming program and annually produces over 3,000 tons of forage and grain commodities. Crops are rotated between alfalfa, barley, oats and forage mixes of oats and peas and varing hay crops. An active noxious weed program is in effect which assures a very high quality grain and hay commodity. Irrigation water is applied by flood and wheel-lines and is carefully managed and balanced with wildlife requirements.
