[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1818251, member: 6291"] It's a big world. We can have standing grass that has little to no nutritional value. You have to stimulate more consumption and/or bring in cheap protein. More bulk like hay doesn't really do much good and the same case can be made for some feeds. I avg less than 1 bale per head per year. It's actually like .5 or .333 and some years it's near 0 with the exception of pinning heifers to wean or bulls or some thing like that getting hay. The best part is salt feed, cottonseed, and liquid feed don't double or more in a drought like hay does. I have hay dependant people in bad shape right now because the can't even get hay, no matter the cost, and can't wrap their minds around any other option. They are like addicts when you talk to them.
