Hope your hay season went well....sure was a "short one" here. Dang drought anyhow. We had a total of 2.5 inches of rain between May 5 and Sept 1 this year. SInce then, we've had close to 12. I had alfalfa that was cut the third time on July 5. It literally "sat there" (nothing but stubble) until the first of Sept. 'Talk about screwing up a cutting schedule! I thought I"d lost some of it.....but it all made it. Now, it's too late, too wet, and too cold to make hay. 'Cows are gonna get some good grazing this winter! [Reply]   [No Email]

(with pics) in reply to randallinMo, 10-26-2012 05:50:54   I knew you guys got hammered worse than we did with the dry weather. I was luckier than most around here. Got a couple of one inch rains in June that were local pop ups (and of course I had hay down both times). Other than that we were dry May 10 to July 20. Still dry down deep, ponds still almost empty but a fine fall growing season. I ended up taking a break. Didn't set out to, it just happened. Between making hay, hauling hay, revisiting my misspent youth with the ladies, and getting a T9 Cat rock saw at the same time everyone and there brother ran out of time on EQIP contracts I ended up off the computer for weeks at a time. Glad you made it through the drought ok!!! [Reply]  [No Email]
