We have dozens of options for a quick hamburger today, but when I was a boy fast-food hamburgers were not so common, at least not as far as I knew.

“Hungry as a bear” is a phrase humans sometimes use to describe their pre-meal salivations. Meal preparers can be thankful this is just a saying because, at this time of year, if people truly were as hungry as a bear, no amount of cooking could satisfy them.

It’s time to consider what we need to do to get our pastures back into a sustainable grazing condition. The past two years of excessive heat and lack of rainfall along with over grazing has severely damaged our pastures and hayfields. The questions now are how we get them back into a grazable condition with the least number of inputs while retaining our current herd sizes? We will look at the options still yet available while beginning to look towards next year’s potential. How do we begin to better prepare for the next spring’s hay and pasture situations?
