[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1563827, member: 1682"] Can't see prices dropping. Herds keep getting bigger and newly cleared fields are going into crop, not forage. Oldtimers still holding on and unless you see a big exodus of them in the next two years, with buyers keeping those fields in forage, I can't see much changing. Problem is most of the buyers want to put those old fields into crop, so it will only make things worse. Neighbor nearby doesn't want to hassle with working up, fertilizing, cover crop/seeding down old fields, so he is slowly renting out 20 acres here and there to crop guys for 3 years to work ground up proper for eventually seeding down ask to grass. But the 3 years in between can narrow the excess hay supply for sure. [/QUOTE]
