We'll certainly be struggling over here, after such a dry year last year and a dry year so far this year with no rain forecast for at least another 2 weeks. Last year we buffer fed big bale silage and then hay in June - this year we will have none, big bale silage finished in Jan and hay will run out mid March. Ground water levels a lot lower than this time last year, streams have run briefly but almost dry again, river running at summer level. But we definitely don't want another 2012! Our worst harvest in living memory, on our small wheat area, massive ruts in fields from hay and silage making - we are a clay land farm.
Dry or pi55 wet summer..... I’ll take the first option
