We finished our harvest a few weeks ago, but I have been busy helping my son and some neighbors with their’s.
We finished my son’s bunker and got it covered. Yesterday we finished the rest of his corn and took it to the elevator. Its yield was good, but it still was pretty wet to harvest for dry corn. Also had so vomitoxicin. If the levels get too high the corn is unsaleable. His levels weren’t that high but they did take some pretty big deductions.
We also spread rye for cover crops and did his tillage. It’s really nasty out there now. Windy, rainy and about 36 degrees. Just about as nasty as it gets. Makes my old joints hurt. Feels good to be in the shop today.
Working on beet digger. The grab rolls took a lot of wear. They had a lot of tons of beets and mud run over them. We took every roll out and are rebuilding the spiral wrap and ramps on them. a lot of work but we are making good progress.
