We got a few days of sun, but it's raining again. We pushed pretty hard to get our beds in and prepared. The alfalfa that we cut out of our field to make room for the beds was rained on so we went ahead and baled it into small squares without it really being dry. The average bale moisture is 45%. It should be under 19% but we needed to get it up and out of the field so I'm using it to entice the cows to go into the corral. They love the wet green alfalfa and they charge into the corral to get it. Each bale weighs around 100lbs or more so we were happy to get out of the field with working backs. George my 14 yr old ran the tractor while my brother and I dragged the bales off of the baler and onto the rack (wagon).
