This growing season experienced significant moisture extremes, starting with heavy downpour rains and overly wet conditions early on, transitioning to dry conditions later in the summer. How did this affect your crops harvested for feed? There was a lot of variation, especially with the first crop. Some producers harvested the first crop early when the weather was good, resulting in great quality. Others took the first crop later, facing weather challenges that led to poor quality. The second crop was challenging due to a small window for making haylage. However, the third and fourth crops seemed to be of good quality.

I hope you got more treats than tricks on Halloween. It was uneventful at my house. I guess I must live too far out in the sticks to be worth messing with.
