I’ll say it again. Droughts are the worst.

Small group of steers to finish in the feed lot and the cow herd. Unless it doesn't rain at all, I should be ok as I planted more than usual. Just won't really know how things will pencil out until insurance and .gov settles up and I see just how much corn isn't in the silage. First cutting hay here brought in 40% of normal and it's like that in a large chunk of the state. The guys without a silage crop in their operation who normally buy all their hay are going to be in a bind. At least the markets are making it a good time for them to scale back or quit.
