Dealing With High Hay Prices
This article first appeared in Indiana Sheep Tales in 1997, Vol. 30:3.
by Mike Neary
Extension Sheep Specialist
Purdue University Hay prices for the winter of 1996/1997 were two to three times more expensive than most years. It appears that many areas of the eastern cornbelt will again have very high hay prices in 1997/1998. It has been suggested by some that work closely in the forages area that hay prices could reach $200 to $250 per ton for the coming winter. Hay prices this high certainly are a major financial consideration for sheep producers, whether they have large commercial flocks or just a handful of sheep as a part-time enterprise. Even if producers raise their own hay and their cost of production is well below the market value, if they feed this homegrown hay to sheep, they will be losing a substantial opportunity to sell this hay at a high price. Unless one can find hay that is reasonable in price, the only option in reducing hay cost is to feed less hay. Strategies to achieve this goal will be discussed in the remainder of this article. Methods to reduce hay usage 1) Have hay tested for nutritional value Whether purchased or homegrown, it will be very important this year to get a laboratory analysis of a representative sample of hays. Not only is hay expected to be in short supply, it is likely to be quite variable in quality. Knowing the nutritional value of hays will allow the most effective utilization in a sheep nutrition program.

Will Hay brief career description and filmography.
http://www.britishpictures.com/stars/Hay.htm
Will Hay Will Hay's comedy genius was in combining the role of authority figure with that of the little man struggling against authority. His hopeless incompetence when placed in a job he can't possibly do makes him a sympathetic, as well as an anarchic, figure. He was seedy, greedy, idle and mean - who could fail to love him? He served a long apprenticeship in the Music Halls, gradually developing his sketch The Fourth Form at St Michael's, where his schoolmaster character took form. In 1934 he made his first feature for B.I.P. Those Were The Days an adaptation of Pinero's The Magistrate. He made two other films at the studio before moving to Gainsborough and making the films he's best remembered for. His first film for Gainsborough, Boys Will Be Boys, brought out his schoolmaster character in full but it wasn't until Windbag the Sailor that he was united with Graham Moffat and Moore Marriott as his sidekicks Albert (the fat boy) and Harbottle (the old one). This teaming hit the heights in Oh, Mr Porter!

Commercial farmers turned their backs on conventional bales years ago, but horse owners generally prefer them because they're easy to feed out, and you don't need machinery to handle them. Horses are very fussy about their hay, and are likely to take it as a personal insult if their owners don't deliver the good stuff. Neil Clarkson reports. Happiness, as all horse owners know, is having a shed overflowing with top quality hay by the end of summer, ready to sustain the troops through the winter. Horse owners either buy it, or shut up a paddock or two in the hope that both good weather and a local farm contractor will converge on the property at the same time.

EVALUATING HAY FOR HORSES: MYTHS AND REALITIES Laurie Lawrence ABSTRACT Alfalfa hay can be an excellent feed source for many horses. Alfalfa is a good source of many nutrients including protein and calcium, and is a very palatable feed. The nutrient composition of alfalfa will vary with the maturity of the plant at the time of harvest and this will affect the suitability of the hay for feeding various classes of horses. Alfalfa hay cut in late maturity can be used for mature horses at maintenance or in light work and for mares in early pregnancy, while hay cut in early maturity is useful in rations for young horses and lactating mares. Early maturity alfalfa hay must be fed carefully to horses with low nutrient requirements (such as horses at maintenance) to prevent horses from overeating. As with any hay, alfalfa hay offered to horses must be free from dust and mold. INTRODUCTION SELECTING HAY FOR HORSES Recognition of differences in nutrient content of various hays allows us to match hay type to horse type. Alfalfa is typically much higher in protein and calcium than other hays used for horses and may also be higher in energy and total digestible nutrients. Table 1 illustrates the differences between alfalfa and several other hays commonly fed to horses. Because alfalfa is more nutrient dense, it is almost always a better value when the price per ton of various hays is similar. In addition, because alfalfa tends to be more palatable, horses will usually waste less, which also enhances its economic value.

Using Drought Stressed Corn for Silage, Hay or Grazing
D.L. Wright and H.E. Jowers Anytime drought occurs during the growing season, corn grain yields will be affected. The extent of the loss will depend on stage of growth and the length of time the crop is subjected to droughty conditions. During times of extended drought when grain yield potential is severely limited or nonexistent, the plants may still offer a valuable source of nutrients for livestock provided careful attention is given to how it is harvested and fed. Basically, there are 4 options for using drought stressed corn: (1) hand feeding as green chop or cut stalks, (2) baling for hay, (3) limited grazing in the field, and (4) ensiling to feed as silage. The growth stage of the corn at the time of the drought stress is a major factor to consider when determining which option to use. Nitrate poisoning is the primary concern when feeding drought stressed corn plants to livestock. Poisoning occurs when animals eat too much forage that is high in nitrates. Elevated nitrate levels can also occur in summer annual forages subjected to drought stress. Weeds commonly found in corn fields such as pigweed, ragweed, lambsquarter, nightshade, and Johnsongrass can also accumulate toxic levels of nitrates under drought conditions. Special attention should be paid to weeds if corn is chopped or cut for hay and is mixed in with the corn. When grazed, cattle may select corn over weeds with less chance of nitrate toxicity from weeds.

... Evaluation guidelines for hays for horses (PDF) by Maribel Fernandez and Ron Genrick Acknowledgements This project was developed by the University of Minnesota Extension Service and Assurance Equine Feeds
Considerations about the physical description of hay for horses The physical characteristics of the hay available to the horse are very important, given they will determine to a large extent how much the horse will readily eat versus how much will be wasted. Soft lips and tongue of horses makes them prefer soft hay. Also, their lips are very mobile and allow them to pick through the hay and select which parts they want to eat. Some legume hays that could easily meet the nutrient requirements of a horse, may be too rough, and the horse will pick the leaves and waste the stems, or the horse will eat the leaves first and the stems later when it is forced to. This can cause digestive problems because of shifting the diet too much. Try to offer hay that is soft and that the horse finds attractive, or chop it so that the horse can not select which part to eat. Adding some molasses or water with molasses to chopped hay will keep it clumped together to some extent, and it will also make it softer and more attractive.

What are some guidelines when selling hay?
Introduction Many hay growers simply sell hay. They are selling a commodity to low bidders rather than developing a market for a product. Bringing factors other than price into the market such as forage quality, consideration of customer needs, prompt delivery, steady supply, and appreciation of business can increase value and salability of product. If price is the only determining factor, someone is always waiting in the sidelines to undercut your price.

August 26, 2004 This release is an updated version of a previously sent story on August 26, 2004: "Corn Can Make Good Hay or Silage". What To Do With Immature Corn Some producers may be faced with the necessity of using their corn crops for hay, grazing, or silage because of the cool weather or frost damage, or to supplement poor grazing conditions because of drought. "One of the major concerns with corn in drought areas is the level of nitrates," says Greg Lardy, a North Dakota State University beef specialist. "Check the labels of any herbicide you have been using, and make sure that it is labeled for haying," Lardy says. Moisture level in corn hay is also a concern. "To store the corn as hay, you want a moisture level of about 15 to 18 percent or less." "The level of nutrients in the hay will decrease with maturation," Lardy says. "Along with nitrate levels, it would be a good idea to test for nutrient composition as well. Drought-stressed corn hay will provide nutrient quality comparable to a medium to poor quality forage. Immature corn silage will have a higher crude protein content and a lower energy content than normal corn silage. In addition, immature corn will have greater levels of moisture making ensiling more challenging." Nitrate-containing feeds should be introduced slowly into rations, according to Lardy. Nitrate poisoning symptoms include increased pulse rate; heavy, quickened breathing; muscle tremors; weakness; staggered gait; blue mucous membranes and blindness. Should any of these symptoms occur, remove the animals from the feed and contact your veterinarian.

The Loss of Nutrients in Hay and Meadow Crop Silage during Storage
C. F. Monroe J. H. Hilton E. E. Hodgson W. A. King and W. E. Krauss ABSTRACT Storing as hay. In "well-cured" long hay or that containing less than 30 per cent moisture, the dry-matter loss in storage will vary from 3.5 to 9 per cent and in some cases more. This loss occurs principally in the nitrogen-free extract and to a lesser degree in the ether extract. Hay containing in excess of 30 per cent moisture is not considered safe for ordinary storage. In such cases, extensive heating

Introduction
Many horse owners select hay for their horses based on what they think looks good or on what they have been told is good. Opinions vary all the way from believing that timothy is an essential part of every horse ration to that which insists on alfalfa for all horses. Forage should be the foundation of every horse ration. The quality of that forage, the composition of the hay, and the way the hay is delivered to the horse are all fundamental for good horse feeding. This publication reviews decisions important in developing a healthy ration. Horses are herbivores, animals made to live primarily on plants (forages). About 65 percent of the digestive capacity of the horse is in the lower gut, or the cecum and colon. The cecum and colon contain large microbial populations which allow for the digestion of fibrous feeds, much like the digestive tracts of cattle and sheep (ruminants). Evidenced by the size of the lower gut and the presence of bacteria, the horse is designed to digest primarily forages. Horses have fewer digestive upsets and behavioral vices, such as wood chewing and cribbing, when hay is the main portion of the ration. For proper digestive tract function, horses require a minimum of 1 percent of their body weight per day in long-stem dry matter. This can be done in any form that is convenient and economical. When the total ration particle size is below 1 inch in size, problems with rate of passage, digestibility, and behavioral vices occur.

Becoming even more widespread, Fitzpatrick note, are people selling loads of hay that do not exist. Despite some risk, cash hay sales has its advantages. According to Manitoba Agriculture, which promotes the enterprise to its producers, the advantages include: - Good option for diversification - Fewer inputs than cash grain - Nitrogen residual in the soil if the crop is taken out - Less wind and water erosion than row crops - Spreads workload out over entire growing season - Provides summer employment for older children - Potential for excellent returns.

  • The Basics of a Good House Rabbit Diet CONTRARY TO BELIEF , hay is not grown year round. Grass will grow slightly faster in cooler weather than the legumes, such as alfalfa. Alfalfa grows best when the temperatures are hot. It typically takes approximately 60 days for new growth of alfalfa, 60 for mix hay, 60 for orchard grass, and 75-80 for timothy in Lincoln County . CROP DESCRIPTION Alfalfa , which is a herbaceous perennial legume, originated near Iran . It has a high mineral content and contains at least 10 different vitamins. Alfalfa, if cut when all things are ideal, can run as high as 20% protein in the pre-bloom state to as low as 11% at the end of bloom. Timothy grass , a perennial bunchgrass, is a cool-season forage grass. It is slow growing and has a low yield in the field. It has been our experience that 1st and 2nd cutting timothy grass hay works well for animals with a delicate digestive system, skin problems, issues with diarrhea and weight problems. Timothy can, however, go as high as 18% protein just before bloom (we've never had one test this high) and can fall as low as 4-6% protein in the late bloom state.
