Just about everywhere you go the bales are stacked along the fencelines! Lots of small square stacks tarped and waiting for the hay plant to take them? The plant along highway two is all grown up in weeds as they closed it down last year.
One of the local hay guys(about 2000 acres) is packing it in and selling out. Another is rumored to be considering his options!
And yet...the price of delivered horse hay is still $4/bale...if you were lucky enough to get it up in decent condition.
It is amazing how many small cow herds have simply vanished? It was very apparent last summer that a lot of people had packed it in, and maybe even more so this winter?
Probably only the area I live in, because those cows have to be going somewhere, right? Have you seen an increase or decrease in the cattle population in your area?
