Hi Gang;
After the wettest June on record, fine weather predicted until Sunday. So this guy is mowing with Valmet (now called Valtra) and mower-conditioner.

Sounds like us last year, May and June '06, I was beginning to think we were stuck in the rinse cycle ! In contrast to this year, like night and day, I cannot recall the last time we have experienced periods of sunny and dry weather, with rain averaging about once a week. There is probably some real nice hay put up this year in the area.

In south west MO my problem is trying to decide wether to cut due to shower chances. Have a bottom field of millet I'm waiting to cut. Rained Tue. night, 9/10th after almost 2 1/4" on Sat. and Sun. Possibly showers again mid week.

Yup, I agree, where is all the rain. Rain has been real spotty in the upper midwest, some places got nice rains but where I am..... ..nothing, just some damaging hail on June 20th and an inch of rain, but now very dry again.

Well, we got about 2 1/2" on our farm in the early part of the week, I think it was monday & tuesday. Nobody else around us even got that much. But, we needed it badly.

I did cut a swamp on either sat. or sun. so that's why we got rain. Rains every time i cut that swamp for bedding, stayed dry maybe once in the last 10 years. Just glad I didn't cut our 2nd yet as I was planning to do....
