Northwest iowa | I have hay down every day, all summer long. And it is mostly a cash crop here too. If you work at it there is a market for wrapped hay and or baleage. It's a proven method that will make proprionic acid seem as obsolete as buggy whips. My lowest testing hay last year was 147.
Go your own way, and learn from it. Different methods work for different farms. I just wanted to comment that the 6 grand I spent on the fancy applicator, and the 5-7 grand for acid is all money that yielded next to no return here. Trying to rely on that stuff to beat a rain was expensive and unreliable. It absolutely NEVER made me money. It may have saved some hay a few times, but quality was always questionable at best, and more often than not I had to try and sort out the crap from the good stuff. Simply not practical when there are other better alternatives. | |
