Wet weather - grazing crop opportunities

Hi fellow croppers:

The wet weather has been a real problem in harvesting corn silage and some cereals or soybeans.

One possible opportunity is to graze the unharvested crop. Putting up some electric fence and allowing cattle in to graze after freeze up may be a possibility. Beef cows or stockers could survive with fresh snow, mineral and the stover.
