Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there who do the “heavy lifting” for their family like this soybean plant. Especially to my wife, JustAMom who should enjoy this day as well! #MothersDay

Saturday mornings after a week of rain are tough. Bike 8 while everyone else ran. Now eating #doughandjoe donuts (hands down the best donuts ANYWHERE) and having a Bloody Mary. #hardwork #toughlife

Will this corn recover from the #frost21? Jokes on you, this is what happens when you grab COC instead of NIS for your Resicore in ‘20. Looks the same though and I was just as sick. It will be OK. It yielded really good, just don’t look.....for a long time. Like, a couple weeks.

Residue matters in a cold spring. Hard to believe just a little cover makes such a big difference in plant size. It’s the spring that keeps on giving (problems). #grow21

“Whatever floats your boat” comes to mind, but all the #cornrootworm we are finding is alarming. Dry fall + dry spring = potential disaster if you didn’t take preventative steps the last few years. Traits work but too much pressure can still cause damage. #grow21

Maybe if we set up the time lapse to watch the storm it won’t be as bad as they predict….🤞#grow21 #keepthehailaway

Today’s word of the day: POTENTIAL We have the “potential” for a good crop, but we will need some more moisture to make it happen.

D played great. Offense, special teams, and coaching were bad. Respect to Iowa, they are who we thought they were and did exactly what they always do to get the win.

Time to evaluate your fields. Don’t assume you should just go get the driest corn first, you may need to prioritize certain hybrids if stalk quality is deteriorating.

What’s the point of insuring a package with U.S. Postal Service if they won’t pay you for it if they lose it? “Show us it’s worth that much” they say. So I send proof it’s worth way more- “Not good enough” they say! How about just don’t lose it! Only UPS from now on. #uspsfail

15 years ago today we were married. We went back and took some pics to recreate the originals but with our son (did this at 10 years also). JustAMom #weddedbliss #cheersto15

It all started in 1977 with the first harvest, and today marks a new chapter as they move into the “retired farmers” category. Dad loaded their last load of grain today off the farm. Cheers to the next chapter!
