I'm set up to plant this year. 500,000 seed per lb is damn small seed. plant 1/4 in deep doesn't fit my operation, so a lot of adjustments are too be made. Local coop has an air seeder. you have to have a carrier. could use phosphate but $48 per acre wasn't in the budget on a year it wasn't scheduled into our plan. choose pell lime at $9 an acre. air seeder is $9.25 acre. figured if wanted to add any extra's. now is the time. balansa clover over winters most places up to -14 degrees. chose to add collards and rapeseed. rape won't over winter but has a great root system and collards over winter 50% of the time. spread this the day after corn harvest. then drill cereal rye, hoping that the drill and tractor running over the mixture presses the small seed into the ground! next crop is soybeans; basically doing this experiment for knowledge for the 2024 corn crop. chosen rates for this experiment were over 2lbs of balansa clover, .5lb of collards and 3lb of rapeseed (which is cheap). we still have to work out our spring herbicide program. we'll plant green. 109acres.

I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows!
