Talked to seed spud framer today because i was disappointed there were no glinting,,,

Spud are great this year.
New equipment does not miss much,,…

Year ago we had a marginal piece of ground we would harvest with a worn out combine that leaked grain for the birds and deer,,,,,, can’t afford to do that ,…

Remember when they were pickers,,,, not picker shellers…..?

Our neighborhood has a big feedlot that buys 8 to 12 million bushels a year.

Thursday they set a new record for them....they took in 571k bushels. That's in 13hrs, 6am to 7pm. 2.7million for the week

picking here the last 5 days

Wow!! That is amazing Marty B.

who owns that feedlot marty?? one of the big 3?? how many head do they feed??

what keeps it from rotting when it gets rained on? or does it not rain much there? I bet there may be a job opportunity to get rid of pigeons or a good dove hunting opportunity with all that corn out in the open.

im betting they cover it ... high moisture corn.. then just take the face off each day/// dont show it but id think it would be rolled...them fats in his last pics look ready to go.. they are sure getting them big with these prices

Elevators always pile corn on the ground here. The base of the pile is surrounded with a huge tarp that can be pulled up to cover as the pile grows. Sometimes the piles are left uncovered. Either way, they get moved within a month or two as storage or rail cars become available.
