I know what you mean about the drought. In my 63 years,I think this is the first time I've dealt with a "flash drought". We started out flooded,had to replant some corn,then had to deal with serious denitrification from excess water. We went right from that to scorching heat and no rain at all. For the second year in a row,the pastures were gone in July. I ran through all my surplus hay last year. I'm trying to finish out the largest calf crop I've ever had from last year while trying to keep the cows. It's gonna be a tough row to hoe. I've already sold some cows that hadn't calved yet. Last years drought caused some cows to breed real late,so I have 6 here that still haven't calved. I'd almost feel better if they weren't bred at all because they're all young cows. If they weren't bred,I'd hold them over and cull some others,but if they calve this late,they'll have to go when I get the calves weaned. I'll have to get rid of about a third of the herd before it's over with without a doubt. It's making for some sleepless nights.
