Sugar beet harvest is completed here.
Fellow growers, if you have beets left to dig and need help getting them harvested, we are can dig and deliver them to the end of your field, despite being wet.

[steven Wikkerink @StevenWikkerink]

Looking for a few bushels of pea seed that someone may have left from spring planting, that they are willing to sell.

[steven Wikkerink @StevenWikkerink]

Outside 6 rows seeded into zero tilled ground.
Was too wet when we scratched the rest of the field so just seeded through it.

Update on green seeded yellow beans

Test plot seeding green into fall Rye, with yellow beans

[steven Wikkerink @StevenWikkerink]

Yellow beans as the fall Rye dies off. Inside the Rye stubble, beans are very nice. Beans seeded beside them on hills, very beat up by the wind.

@CandiceBergenMP Liberals have no interest in listening. They also didn’t see the truckers washing the Terry Fox statue and doing all the snow removal by hand
