How a Vibecoded Newsletter Is Making the Hay Market More Transparent

And then on top of that, I was talking to a farmer the other day and he said, so he went to go put his hay up in the auction, but he actually pulled it back because the demand for hay was getting so increasingly, like it was getting really tight and he needed the hay.

So he's kind of predicting it to get even tighter.

Odd Lots

So yeah, as I can tell, a lot of people are kind of feeling the outcomes of these high hay prices.

Odd Lots

Yes, yes.

Okay, so cows.

Odd Lots

Cows will eat, there's different types of qualities, I guess you could say.

RFV, relative feed value.

Which basically is, which I think, I'm pretty sure it controls or it,

It gets the protein contents and the fiber in the hay.

Odd Lots

So like I said, the dairies are going to be using that higher quality alfalfa and supreme hay, higher RFV to have their cows on the best.

And then you're going to have the

the e-client people, the horses also using this higher quality stuff because they love their horses and they only want what's best for their horses.

And then you have the lower quality type of stuff, which is going to go to like the utility and fare, which is going to go to your beef, which are, it's just a cheap way to, you know, beef up your cow for a cheaper price instead of paying the premium alfalfa.

And then, yeah, there's, there's, there's so many different qualities.

Odd Lots
How a Vibecoded Newsletter Is Making the Hay Market More Transparent

Odd Lots
