I made more than usual last year. Had a chit load of wheat.

Sell the wheat...


You’ll be money ahead...

I can see fine, but reading this damn phone is the *s-word’s...

Anyone else having same issues??

Get you some cheaters. You're getting old.

I’m thinking I just need to quit looking at this phone...

I won't even look at stuff like this forum on a phone. Pisses me off too much trying to read it. Computer and laptop only. Wear contacts for work and have sunglasses with cheaters.

25 4x5s on 8 acres. Could have been better.

Do your bales end up around 1,000lbs give or take?

Probably.

 

[farminkarman]

Probably.

That's not too shabby then

No rain last week or this week..

Everyone is going full bore.. and they’re rolling up EVERYTHING after running a tad short last winter.,

We had 2 weeks of sub zero *s-word, and cows tend to double their consumption when that happens.
So barring a drought early this summer, we should have glut of round bales in the neighborhood this year..

Sounded solid to me...

Nice Oliver by the way.

48 bales on a little less than 20 acres.

Was good and thick this year. Still got about 20 yet to cut.

The field in that pic used to be in a wheat/bean rotation.. Now it's feeding mama cows.. Our area is better suited for cattle, but we are hard headed, so still a lot of wheat bean corn going on.

9 acre piece at the kids' made 21 today. Not awesome, but with some fall fertilizer applications, it's getting better.
Quality is too..

Got 12 4x4 out of my backyard yesterday. I'd say not bad for under 2 acres?
