Sitting here we have had another rain move through, and will have another 3 days of rain to think over things. I just counted the feed fut up to date and it is as follows:

Hay put up with no rain 0
.5 "rain 210 greefeed all plastic wrapped
1" of rain 60 hay bales dry - 200 greenfeed plastic wrapped
2" rain- 75 plasic wrapped
4" rain 170 plastic wrapped
5' rain 150 "dry?"

15 ac 2nd cut down 6 days
150 ac crop waiting for weather to cut

We would have been pretty much hooped without a neighbors tubeline wrapper this year, and a new Hesston Silage baler I just hope that the 2nd cut can come off decent, it does not look promising though.

I am interested in seeing how the 4"rain wrapped bales will feed out, I will use the processor and feed them early, at least there will be no dust. Haying in central alberta has been a complete disaster this year, thank God for bale wrap!
