Can anyone tell me the difference in
Sudan grass
sorghum sudan
forage sorghum
Seems all the same to me, just someone put different names on the same type product.
So I guess then planting Corn is out if 80 bucks a hundred is expensive :wink:

That was soundin pretty good till you mentioned "woolies" and while I appreciate the invite there is always someting to do around here or south, but i am goin to Canada, just a matter of timing and Big dummie is right we might get our ears stretched by Debbie for sippin that canadian whiskey pickin that martin and talkin about days gone by.

PS I guess I could make hay pencil @ $80 cwt for seed but with the stock gone and the drought condition unknown, why work that cheap ?

You could get H to buy more goats and rent him pasture if the weed crop comes in good. :wink:
If you were to get sufficient rain, what would come in voluntararily?

Planning on being a hay farmer Larry ?

PS When you figure out the differnce in that seed and that it's 4x the cost it was 4 years ago, believe you might change your mind.
I have just laid in 120 bag so I guess i will probably plant it.
And yes it is expensive, but like I said show me any seed that isn't expensive.
So the alternatives in TX would be what, cotton or milo?

Being ranchers, all we have ever planted was the cane type hay and have some costal Bermuda with improved pastures, works good if we get normal rainfall.
so I really caint say what crops would be an alternative we aint set up for anything like that, silos/Bins etc.

With costs and the question of water it seems to be a constant challenge.
