For many South Texas ranchers, hay purchasing often becomes a priority when supplies are already tight. Waiting until fall can mean higher prices, limited inventory, and fewer options for your livestock feeding program.
Planning ahead can help avoid those challenges.
Summer Is the Best Time to Evaluate Inventory
Take stock of your current hay supply and estimate your feeding needs through the fall and winter months. Factors such as herd size, pasture conditions, and rainfall forecasts all play a role in determining how much hay you’ll need.
Protect Against Weather Uncertainty
South Texas weather is unpredictable. A dry late summer or delayed fall rains can quickly increase dependence on stored forage. Having quality hay on hand provides flexibility and peace of mind when conditions change.
Quality Matters
Not all hay is created equal. Purchasing quality hay with good nutritional value can help reduce waste and improve livestock performance.
