[QUOTE="504RP, post: 1824087, member: 40335"] Here in NorthWest Arkansas we have had forecast after forecast about all of the rain we were going to get. It would cloud up, sky turn dark, wind pick up only to sprinkle 30 minutes to an hour. And it’s has been that way 70 to 80% of the time. In a way it’s worked out kind of good for putting up hay. Rained just enough to grow grass and those that took the gamble to put nitrate out. Sometimes hit the jack pot others who gambled it would rain and put nitrate out and didn’t get rain wasted their money. So when you cut it you didn’t have to worry about it getting rained on. But pasture being used to graze just couldn’t keep up. It would get grazed to dirt and is going into winter dirt. A lot of people are drilling winter wheat right now. But it is going to have to be a very wet winter to fill ponds up and these pastures that have been grazed down to dirt is going to be late this Summer producing grass for grazing and unless it is a wet Spring people will have to graze their hay fields or find hay to feed if they want to try and hold on.
