Focus has been directed to making haylage in the past week. I was married this past weekend so crops were delayed for a short period. Quickly after that the bagger was prepared, the machine was greased and chopper wagons were hauling full loads. This year feels like second crop and third crop blended together, leaving a small break. Weather has been favorable; stress levels feel manageable. A few fields looked to have more sorghum with fewer alfalfa plants. Other fields carried more alfalfa. Either way it all was chopped.
