East Texas coastal can grow very good hay if it is managed appropriately. Fertilized correctly and cut in a timely manner (e.g. 28 days after fertilizer).....with a little rain.....hay can easily be 12-15% protein.
Whitecow I'll take your word for it. All I ever saw and tested was little more than junk even with soil test and proper fertilization. Oh the one they would "prepare" for the annual hay show would be good but all in all 90% of it around my area (Cherokee, Rusk, Nacog. counties) was little more than filler. Van Zandt county and a few others would make some pretty good hay.
