Is that hay for your own use or for commercial sale?  Three years ago we had 250 acres of hay, will be down closer to 50 for next year and the way the hay market is here I think that might be too many.  We used the first cutting for our own cows and the later cuttings were sold (mostly pure alfalfa) but the hay market here really tanked and the weather has made it almost impossible to put up decent quality hay.  I really like making hay, maybe more than row crops but when hay is the same price that it was when corn was $2.50 it just doesn't pencil very well.
