I'm in south central Missouri about 50 miles SE of old and things are about as he reported here as well. I am very lucky in that I have some bottom fields of red clover that were cut back in May which were outstanding like over 100 small square bales to the acre. The grass hay (fescue mix) on our place is about normal (60-80 small squares bales per acre) as I fertilized in late winter before the spring rains and as the neighbors say I have that precious bottom ground with deep top soil. Neighbors aren't doing as well as some normal hay fields are rapidly turning into summer grazing lands for their cattle herds. In general, the pastures around these parts look like they normally do in mid-August and we are just starting into July. Ponds and some springs are drying up or barely running around here as well. There's talk that some folks are going to start feeding hay this summer or selling cattle as they are "hobby farmers" with small acreages and too many cows for their land to support with no rain and high hot temperatures and the lack of available hay. I'm still hoping for rain and another cutting on the clover fields though, Hal.
