Hope yall can get a little green happening.
After these long 3-4 yr droughts we have had 100yr floods.These short, light, 10-15 showers is what you want coming out of a drought like you have had. Two inches in an hour on ground that has been baked for as long as yours has might seem great at first thought, but.....I think your 'godsend' in that manner could quickly turn into a disaster as I suspect the ground to not be able to absorb it a that rate and you will end up with flash floods.
Yea, that's what I'm afraid of.After these long 3-4 yr droughts we have had 100yr floods.
Be glad you did…I haven't been able to cut anything yet…just like last year…sighJust as our pastures (and yard) were starting to look good, with the extended epic heat we've had and no rain, they're back to burning up. Just glad we got everything cut/baled when we did and should be good through the winter. Maybe. Hopefully.
I have a fat 5 y/o red angus that came up open at the abattoir right now (how you like that fancy word?). I'm getting the steaks, ribeye, strip, filet, all tenderized and everything else in burger. Can't beat the flavor of older beef. If the steak doesn't tun out I can grind it up at home.I need to follow your lead and move a couple old culls out. Half of me wants to try eating one, grind it or cuts, whichever will work. Not sure if it's worth it though. They're fat and probably bring a good chunk of change. Got appointments end of September.
I find myself doing a couple questionable things right now. Lol. Someone needs to smack some sense into me w these animals.
You think the cull market is going to soften soon?

I don't know bahia, but I do know Dallisgrass. I would clip it back if you're sure rain is coming.Here's my question. Mostly Bahia grass hay field, it's about 6" tall and been that way for over a month because of the drought. It has put on seed heads, got a 1/2" of rain a few days ago and the grass looks anemic and somewhat damaged. The question is do I clip the heads off then put some urea on it or just fertilize it. There's a good chance of rain starting Sunday for a few days so whatever I do I need to do it now.
