That’s sickening, always a very nervous time of year .
Two years ago we had 80% of the farm hit
Tough to deal with
Hail insurance helps but never replaces a crop

That will come back and be ok providing it rains a bit more for u. Had that happen last year to us and wasn’t so good as it never rained after and yield was considerably less but most years it turns out ok. Chin up.

Sorry to see that, so much devastation so quick. We had that 3 years ago and used Furrows recommendation on what to spray on it. It worked well although looked ugly with broken stems that grew in every direction. Yield was about 60% of rest of crop. You need to help it with disease prevention which is what we feel we achieved with Furrows recommended sprays. Good luck

It’s always next year country. Iin 2001 we got 100% hail on pretty well whole farm twice. Once July 7 and again July 14. We just got the silage guys in to silage up the residue. The next year was a weedy year.
