Never before saw so many army worms and other bugs. They are munching on the seed heads of the timothy grass while the weevil is stripping the leaves off of the alfalfa.
Got the hay all cut but should maybe be cutting some of the pasture ground as well before the army worms shred it ahead of the cows.
Not an epidemic here yet but they are spraying crops 1/2 hour south of us. One guy thought he dodged the bullet until his neighbor cut hay and then the worms moved from the hayfield into his soys. Ouch.
Drought to start the season and then once we get rain, army worms and weevil. An interesting year so far.
But we're all healthy and happy so life is still good!
