But there is not a field in my area that has even seen tillage let alone being planted. Only exception, sort of, is the tenant who farms on two sides of me has plowed under all of his wheat. It was better than 60% winter killed. He did some sort of tillage about 10 days back. Tractor and corn planter sitting on field since...nothing happening. All other fields in area are untouched. Most of those have water standing on them. I was only intending to plant a small section of corn for feed but may be more trouble than it is worth. I have seen bad weather before but usually by this time you can at least open a field to let it dry. Passed a fella trying that over the weekend. He was buried out there in a 4WD tractor. I took my small 4WD utility into the woods to dump a bucket full of lawn trash and barely got out. If I had not had a loader to pull myself out it would still be in there. Seems like it gets worse every year.
