@rhofford Tires are done and cosmetically very poor.

Look what came in my bag of canola seed. Thanks to whoever invented blockage monitors. Had 120 acres before my next fill. Would have been a lot of 10’ strips. I also run all my fert through my side band which let the issue be noticed.

[David Swanton @DavidSwanton3]

Anyone else still seeding through snow banks?

[David Swanton @DavidSwanton3]

@rhofford Consider electric wherever you buy. When I bought my 2 trucks I got 1 with and 1 without. I wish they both had now.

@breckner_robert I’ve had 6 loads go to LDC this week. Trucker said no lines. 2 minutes and 41 seconds to dump.

@rhofford 1/4 section per fill so quite often drill to yard

@kowalchukfarms1 Isn’t the saying “ if you owe the bank 1 million, that’s your problem, if you owe the bank 950 million, that’s their problem”

@kowalchukfarms1 I know a guy that used to use lawn darts out the tractor door to mark them back in the 90’s

@Smithfamilyseed @hsiemens During Covid I sold a stack of 30 for $5 per pallet.

@bigmothufacking We are pretty flat here. Everything is heading to the lake and it piles up on the NE 1/4s of the sections and waits to get through the culverts. Melted so fast some of that water is popping over the roads.

[David Swanton @DavidSwanton3]

@bigmothufacking Pretty wild here today. Rivers over their banks from ice jams and water flowing over quite a few roads.

@jcalder1983 @Mullin_95 I can’t believe he hasn’t set a go fund me account yet. 😂

@BaldurBarons I had some 2.2 screenings. Good heavy consistent plump wheat this year. Wheat Plants lived a full life with all the smoke. Regular wheat between .4 and .6 dockage

@bigmothufacking If you touch #1 with a cattle prod it will jump off the plate.

[David Swanton @DavidSwanton3]

@rhofford @gavin_spoor For sure. I’ve done some late fall residual chem app after Halloween but the sprayer sits in the shop if that’s happening.

[David Swanton @DavidSwanton3]

I guess we are doing this again. Another 8-10” but at least it was a “dry” snow.

[David Swanton @DavidSwanton3]

@rhofford Small closed herd, A guy wonders if he should bother. All those shitty years after BSE it was really hard to want to bother.

[David Swanton @DavidSwanton3]

@rhofford Did when I had hem.
