“It would be nice to get a higher protein content in our haylage to be able to reduce our supplement costs. Forage on our operation directly affects how much we make with our milking herd.

“We have just started up a dairy and so we are trying to get the people who raise our crops to put in more alfalfa acres.

“Timeliness of harvest would make things go a lot better for our operation. We seemed to have a lot of late alfalfa this year, cutting down on the quality we are looking for.

I realize we had a wet year and had to dodge a lot of rainstorms, but sometimes people on the harvesting side of things forget we need as high of quality feed as we can get.”
