There was a window with perfect weather for hay, and some got it in, but here it was stunted, there was not much, but I do believe in getting it off the field, then you have another chance at it. We were bone dry in the end of April, early May, low humidity, sunny and clear, California weather, thats we needed the rain, followed by the clear weather, would have been a good time to cut and bale, the only thing you could do now is as Sam says, sileage bales or sileage, unfortunately, all the ground my farmer friend has, is all in hay, which he round bales and is all sold in advance, I am not sure if if that large dairy would need or take sileage bales, as they have giant bunkers and a lot of ground in corn and alfalfa, they take the hay and mix it with the feed. He did get one field baled, and we used to put it in the barns immediately to keep the value up, but that one field a much older planting, bales are still there, I can see why, that field the weeds were more prevalent, next cut would usually be mostly grass when that happens, however the remaining majority of his fields were all real nice stands, many recently planted, but you can't get in there without making a real mess, ruts and all that on the low areas, I've worked most of the fields, however if the weather does change and I think it will, it can turn around quickly and he could still get a nice 2nd cut given the moisture.
