Given that hay is your only option, my first suggestion would be to stop worrying before you give yourself an ulcer. Doesn't matter what you plant, this is always going to be an issue. Eventually your window will come, just make sure you are ready for it when it does. Do not get fooled and jump the gun on too short a window or wet ground. Wait and cut it when the weather will let you do it right. STO and hay these are the facts of life. Some years the hay and the window are ready at the same time, some years the window is late. Around here the later hay is a lower price (unless there is a shortage) but there is usually more bulk so more bales. Keep in mind that all this rain is going to make your buyers crazy for the hay and will pay more as long as you do not go nuts. Experienced buyers know the score. That would be my two cents as a long time hay producer for the horsey trade. With all this rain the last two years I have some fields could not be cut 100% either year. Just don't plow it under and plant corn. That can cause drought conditions to develop. :)
