The Dick Tracy Wrist Radio......only in current technology. Venture capital news is displaying a communication "hootus" (looks like a miniature Ipod) that you wear on the back of your hand.
Now that I maybe have your attention, looks like the weather is forcing me to change my hay crop plans for the year. Due to cool spring weather and summer Aphids, looks like this is not a year for Sudan-Sorghum Haygrazer which is the preferred crop.
Question is, while using my tractor to plant my oats, I have 3 questions.
1. I know horses are routinely fed raw oats but what about mature oats in the field harvested while still growing but mature, for baled hay to feed cows. I know that mature wheat makes dough in ruminant animals, but what about oats?

3. How about the other end. We are supposed to have a cool spring and above average rain in April and May. My hay patch dirt is a gooey mess right now and see no signs of it drying out enough to plant till maybe June which is supposed to be hot and dry (all per the gift of the Old Farmer's Almanac). Do oats just not do well in hot weather?
