Do you ever stop to think about what brings you happiness in life? Aboard an airplane a few weeks ago coming into Madison, Wisconsin, I looked down out of the window and saw fall colors on the leaves of the trees.

As another forage production season comes to a close, many producers once again find themselves wondering if they will have enough feed on hand or be able to find and purchase what they are lacking.

I think many of our producers could and should be considered “experts” in their craft. Years of experience have given them opportunities to learn what works and what doesn’t. They have made improvements on their farms based on those lessons and hopefully will continue to do so in the future.  But what do you do when presented with a new challenge, perhaps something you’ve never seen or experienced before?
