        Wow that makes me physically ill. Wish you luck and hope that you still get some good hay. It should regrow?

              Wow, my sympathies to you and your neighbors. That is always a depressing tour. If it is any consolation, This is the best time of year to get a hail storm. One really dry spring, dad had most of his Hay crop wiped out by hail in late June. Regrew to be tremendous crops, Neighbors had hardly any pain due to the dry spring

                Goes to show who the ****en boss is!

                We went from desert conditions to a good chance of a diseased mess in three weeks. The grass was still wet from this morning's heavy heavy dew when I came in for lunch at noon.

                Good luck Grassy...hope the fields of yours seeded for feed purposes recover.

                How much rain did you get with this system?

                  In 2012 our canola was mowed to the ground.
                  Crop insurance wrote it off at zero.
                  We had just sprayed it the 2nd time..in 2 weeks it came back and was blooming..crop insurance guy came back and was speechless.
                  It yielded 15 to 33 b/a ..was late ..but that yr We had the ugly wind..most didn't average any better.
                  So you might be surprised..

                    Tough to lose crops when everything is done right. Grassy, hay crop will still be there but latter than normal, sorry to see what happened.

                      Rain gauge suffered a direct hit but going by what was in some buckets about 3"
                      The grass will come back stronger than before I'm sure, but instead of a hay crop plus 30 cow days/acre fall grazing we'll only get the reduced, later hay crop in a year where feed is going to be scarce and expensive. With livestock the problems are always more immediate.

                          That’s sickening to see grass . Sorry to hear there guy.
                          Not much other than pasture can recover from that kinda beating.
