Just finished chopping our first crop on the ground just to get it off. Been rained on for 3 weeks almost every day or atleast every other day. What really sucked was having to go in the new seeding which was very soft, but had to get it off to prevent it from completely killing the alfalfa underneath.
Second crop does look good though, it's already about a foot tall in places and we'll probaly cut in 2 weeks. Also had to change a tire on the front of the tractor, and the blower band blew out on the chopper in the last field. Hopefully the place I know had a used one on a chopper a few years ago still has it. Or atleast another one in good shape.
Another good thing, the rain went South of us and we've actually gotten less than .25" in the last couple days. Sund the next 2 atleast so maybe I can get into our corn ground and scratch it up some so we may be able to plant eventually....
