[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9661"] If it is a problem with others also, you may consider that the weather/growing conditions for various forages and forbes was different this past year. In this area there were plants growing and going to seed that hadn't been seen in 20 years or more. We had a strange winter (last), spring and summer with a continuation of drought.
