Flowering pole beans, should make pods soon! Timing looks right, hopefully the beans will provide some extra starch into the corn silage along with protein

Finding quite a few cobs with 20 rows around this year, plenty of heat mid season and moisture during pollination. Looks promising, for now...

Grinding and bagging barley today. Will make for fast and efficient feeding over the next few months. Too bad we couldn't get at it when it was high moisture but now atleast feed out rate won't be crucial

9mm. It's a bit breezy and moist out here, but other than that, #HurricaneLee didn't affect our area much. Not even making a track during this mornings feeding

Planting green into some triticale. Had liquid manure spread on it two weeks ago. The trit was notilled into hay ground but didn't get sprayed in time and outcompeted. Doesn't looks so bad now though!

Our maiden voyage with our new to us feed truck. With having more animals off site this will allow us to feed more efficiently and also fits in this alley we couldn't get down with the tractor mixer.

I haven't spent any time on here over the winter, maybe it's time to pick up where I left off again. Here is a picture to kick off #Plant25

She ain't new or shiny but works pretty well when feeding cows on multiple sites. And, now we're never stuck with a backup mixer
