March 21st planted LG 2801s. That’s a pod on my finger! This was the first day of early insurance in this county. Well worth taking for $1 and you don’t have to decide if you want it until March 15th! LG Seeds

April planted W7870 McLean county. 7oz veltyma at R1. Wish I would have pushed 10oz on this customer. High rates and 2apps probably going to pay again here in 2024 even with low market prices. Wyffels Hybrids BASF AgSolutions US

March was a terrible time to plant beans. What was I thinking 🤔. I strongly think there will be a big difference this year comparing March and April beans to May. We have been bone dry for a month now. ⁦LG Seeds⁩ ⁦BASF AgSolutions US

Beat the rain last night. Auto path is working great in this caseih 595 quad. Running a G5 with 7500 globes. Also have a 1200, 700, 20/20 and an iPad. I thought I would hate the cluster but i don’t ever have to switch screens so I guess I got that going for me 🤣

This is what happens when you deal with big retailers. 29mph winds right now… I have seen it with sprayers today as well. They have to cover the acreage. They just choose farmers that bitch the least to do it on. Nathalie Baillieul

It sure was a Good Friday! Planted 400 acres including a 45 acre 54 entry plot, non gmo, non gmo white corn and traited hybrids. Then jumped in the sprayer at 9pm and sprayed 900 acres by 3am! Just in time!
