[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1802471, member: 19817"] I've sold more hay in the last 2 weeks than I did all winter. 3 weeks ago it hit 80 degrees and guys thought winter was over and they wouldn't need more hay. Well in the last 2 weeks we've had nearly 3 foot of new snow, currently there's about 12-16" on the ground. It'll be probably 3 weeks before things melt, dry and grow enough to turn cows out on pasture. So there's a good bit of feeding left yet. Some guys will turn cows out the minute the fields green, then wonder why they are out of pasture in august. Also part of my drought strategy is to carry over about 50% of my yearly hay needs in the barn. [/QUOTE]
