A Good Beginning

Partners,

Got a good day in today after major planter frustrations yesterday. It got dry enough to officially start planting Tuesday afternoon, but we couldn't get the planter to "talk" to the monitor--totally unable to go! We were on phone with Precision Planting tech support till 10pm. We finally gave up, went to bed, and this morning the software we needed to install loaded in less than a minute! By tonight will have over 200 acres in the ground. 

Finished spraying bean ground Monday and started with the corn burndown for the no-till fields. We should be caught up with the planter by early next week.

Still leveling and moving dirt to help heal some of the scars from the last three years' heavy rainfalls. Seeding more wider, longer waterways to try to stem the erosion possibilities.

Weather forecast does not look very wet or warm for the next ten days.
