'We will be scrambling to cut any patch of grass that will make a swath 
here in Sask. With virtually no rain all spring the little bit of grass 
that is growing is already heading out

and going to seed at less than a foot tall. Feed is going to be scarce 
and expensive. There will be some herd culling happening for sure as 
pastures can't keep up and cattle need

to eat. Crops that grow high enough may be cut for baling instead of 
combining.  Years like this I am glad I am only a hobby farmer with 9 
head on  a quarter section.

Ralph in Sask.
