Last week saw us get a couple of fields of Soybeans harvested. We usually plant winter wheat after the beans are off, and it is always a rush to try and get the wheat planted in good time. This year we had planned on putting manure on before we planted, after we combined the beans, and because it is such a late year, that made it particularly rushed! But Kevin spent the day last Saturday spreading liquid on one field, while Grandpa was spreading solid manure on the other, and I was combining Willowtree’s one soybean field so he could get them planted too.
We all managed to get the wheat planted before the drizzle started on Wed. Now all we need is some sun so we can finish harvesting the rest of the soybeans. This week’s weather report doesn’t look real promising! (but they’ve been wrong before!)
