No Rain… All Blistering Heat
August 17, 2011 As you know, we have seven horses. No rain means no hay. People are already spending $12 a bale at Serio's. We feed at least two bales a hay between all seven. You do the math. With the lack of rain, hay could easily be $20+ a bale by December... if there's any to be had at all. This is just what we're facing personally. I can't imagine what farmers are doing to combat the heat, much less people with more livestock than us. How is the lack of rain affecting you? Another August day, another heat record.
