The fellow who leases our farm ground is REALLY steamed!
I mentioned several weeks ago that the local Co-op sprayed the entire farm with the wrong chemical, and he had to plant it back into corn where he'd planned soybeans this year.
Now, yesterday he checked on a quarter section of wheat he has about 15 miles from here and saw it was all dying. The Co-op over there sprayed the wrong farm and killed the entire wheat crop.
Luckily, whatever they sprayed it with is compatible with soybeans, so all Jim could do was get his planter back out, buy seed at a current inflated price, and replant the whole works into soybeans.
I'd suggest that in the interest of self-preservation no one mention the word "Co-op" in his presence right now.
