It's On

It's on! Local farmers are harvesting corn and soy beans early this year. In my neck of the woods, corn is at 54% maturity and beans at 69% maturity. For you city folks, that means they're done growing and dry. And it has been dry in these parts for the past six weeks.

Farmers have been harvesting since this weekend with about 12% of corn harvested and 7% of beans. Still a lot of long days (and nights) ahead of these folks. In a field I drive past on the way to work they were working at 0545 hours and still working when I drove home at 1720 hours.

The deer are being spooked out of the harvested fields so you have to be prepared, especially at dusk and dawn. A 160 pound deer can put a world of hurt on you and your car.

But Mo is gonna be pissed......

the hogs got in the korans again.
