3 poor HAY crops in 45 years doesn't tell the whole story, it does not tell about the bad grain crops cause of drought or to much rain or geese, the forced sale of cattle(at give away prices)because of no pasture trough drought, the pathetic calf prices that did not make ends meet for years on end, the BSE case in a beef cow in 2003 that made bison worthless overnight for the next 4 years although they had nothing to with it and the resulting struggle not to loose the entire farm to the bank and creditors

AFAIAC only the last 4 years out of the 45 were profitable, the rest were a struggle to survive but i ain't complaining,...nobody forced me to go farming
