Re: [RC] The hay situation - Truman PrevattI read today that this is the worst drought recorded in Nashville in 105 years. I sure hope it breaks soon. Our beans and corn in Western KY depend on it.Truman Jody Rogers-Buttram wrote: Joel and I live on a working cattle farm. We have cattle and raise hay to sell. It will take at least 750 large rolls of hay for the cows this winter, plus another 300 square bales for the horses. I usually have plenty of pasture all summer, but my pasture is now literally a dry lot. I am having to feed the horses hay NOW....that is unreal. I normally start the hay in late Oct. to November. Joel has gotten up about 500 or so rolls for the cows, and we have calls everyday from people wanting to buy hay...just don't have it to sell. We have to get in what our own cows will eat first. -- “It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are.
