[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 839527, member: 6543"] I neglected to describe that our good and bad years have no defined season. The winter of 2009-2010 was unlike any I have seen since the early sixites. We had snow frequent and heavy and that is far from normal for us. this past winter where so many got slammed with snow we barely got the ground covered ocassionally and had one of the mildest winters in ten years. ground was not still enough to put nitrogen on small grain until early march. Last spring the rains would not quit and field work was late and when corn finally got planted it took off like a rocket. then the rain quit in April and the blast furnace hit just about tasseling time and corn was a total failure around here. most fields were bush hogged. Naturally in that weather there was no second growth grass. we did not have meaningful rain from early May until October. every year is different and that is why it is hard to describe a normal year. thus It is also hard to plan for a normal year.
