1991 has got to be one of the best years of my farming, I bought my home farm 2 years prior, graduated from college in 90, but married the girl of my dreams in 1991 and had some of the best crops I ever grew. the weather that year was fantastic.
dad and I had a 1979 7720 that was his first new combine and it was a great on a 6 row head. had a 4240 that pulled a 400 bushel kinzie buggy that kept the crop away from it.
the corn sample that year looked picture perfect, so well I put it in a jar down by the corn dryer room to remind me. The next year in 1992 was a disaster. rained all year and cold, Plowed all my corn down through crop insurance. Dad didnt have any on his 200 acres and we shut the MC 900 corn dryer off the day before christmas. the dump trailers of corn were lifted almost right up and the corn wouldnt come out. looked like pop corn terrible sample and it is beside the sample jar of 1991. Hooked the 4240 in front of a 4630 and plowed 200 acres of corn stalk ground like that, almost pulled the plow apart, the ground was so hard. LAST YEAR the ground was plowed.
Two of the most memorable years I have had farming
back to back. Have had lots of other good years but 1991 most memorable.
