I called my supplier today. I didn't even ask him about price but he said he'd fill the tanks by Friday. Makes me glad we No-Til. I also think we might cut back on hay, we have a few hay fields close that we can run temp. electric around and pasture this summer and try to have more winter pasture going into fall.

I'm probably the worst person to give advice (after all I bought Caterpillar last Feb at 58 and sold at 69, before it went in the high 70's) but I think locking in know is closing the door after the horse gets out. OPEC has cut output but I cant see them doing it again this year, too much stress on their customers. Gasoline will trend higher but distillate (including diesel) stocks are up 17% this year over last (off Reuters tonight). Current refining technology yields X amount of gasoline and Y amount of distillate out of each barrel of crude. You cant change the ratio unless you change the feed stock. As refiners attempt to supply gasoline for the summer market distillate stocks will continue to rise. Last I got was at $1.29, my supplier said to expect #2 high sulfur, died red to top out in the low $1.40's before declining into the $1.30's during the summer.

That's good to know. I did stock up before prices got too high, but was contemplating adjusting my haying acerage and process anyway. Knowing what you said will have a significant impact on me being able to carry out previous plans.

thanks hayman,
