<Here's a question for you alfalfa farmers: Why spray a crop right before
cutting? Isn't the battle over at that point? Or is this to keep insects
out of the hay bales?>

Or to knock the bugs down before weakening the plant by cutting?  I'm not
an alfalfa grower, but the farmers I talk to in the area say you don't get
much of a crop if you don't spray alfalfa.  Sorry not the best evidence,
anyone care to elaborate?
