[QUOTE="TheLazyM, post: 441468, member: 3117"] Jogeephus, Thank you for your post and your insight of VZCR's operation. I dont know much about producing, grading, or harvesting hay. However I am licensed With the state of Alabama and federally licensed to grade grain. The thing is with last years rain shortage and this years drought I have to travel further to get hay. What gets me is these scabs pull out a test result of the hay. Of course the analize was done last week. How do I know if that result is on the hay I'm buying. And when I express this concern to the producer they look at me like I'm stupid. I never thought about your method. I would think that it would work on most grass if not all. Cause its not telling you any food value numbers but just giving you a peek at what it looked like when it was cut. I wonder about the horse quilty hay as well. A lot of times when I buy hay the producer ask what I'm feeding when I tell him cattle they try to sell me "cattle hay". I always decline and buy "horse hay". Thinks again I learned something.
