Yesterday evening, we completed harvesting all the first-planted, early-maturing soybeans here at the main farm location.  More soybeans won’t be dry enough for harvest for 5-7 days.  So, we are switching over to corn today.  We have a last-half Sep corn contract to fill at GPC, so we are going to get at least enough corn to fill that contract.  We are hoping the moisture level will be <25%.  If that is so, we may pick corn until more soybeans are ready.

Scenes from Tuesday…

Unloading on-the-go into the Demco 1350 grain cart

Cutting in the field behind the shop. Yields are pretty good.

And here’s a picture from this morning…

#harvest16 is just underway, and should continue for weeks.   Have a great Wednesday.
