Mowing

Smith’s Bible Dictionary · William Smith, F. N. Peloubet, M. A. Peloubet

As the great heat of the climate in Palestine and other similarly situated countries soon dries up the herbage itself, hay-making in our sense of the term is not in use. The "king’s mowings," (Amos 7:1) may perhaps refer to some royal right of early pasturage for the use of the cavalry.
