I think the plants in Mexico and Canada are still open.
I bet the buyers are smiling all the way to the bank.    No reason the 
prices of the finished product ready for sale over seas is any less than 
ever, just the cost here.  Since there is no competition they can buy for 
nothing.
Another one of the unintended consquences of a poorly thought out law.

One advantage might be that you can find a pretty nice horse in the 
shipper's pens cheap.  I just heard of someone selling a number of nice 
registered horses for $25 because of the hay prices and no market to put a 
floor price under the average horse.
