[QUOTE="Chocolate Cow2, post: 1515012, member: 32644"] We had no moisture from October, 2017 thru May of 2018. Many ponds are either dry or nearly dry. Some are hauling water. We get little rains once a week or so. It's just enough to keep the humidity nasty high. Today, we're 90 degrees with 52% humidity. Storms are building but they're east of me. Wheat straw is currently $100 a ton and brome hay, large rounds are $150 a ton. I've had some horse people call wanting to buy brome I had put up. They can't pay for it at these prices. They can't pay for it no matter what the price is. Cattle prices can't support these hay prices. [/QUOTE]
