View of the day-The yield and moisture monitor in the combine. Notice the third number down on the left side...that's 91 bushels per acre! This, from a field the agricultural "professionals" told the farmer this spring-"should get zeroed out from the fly damage".
We got going before noon today and while we worked into the night, didn't manage to get 100 acres in...it's tough when the field is averaging over 70 bu/ac. Between the slower speed...that's a lot of stuff to send through the combine...the lineups at the elevator and having to cut low to catch all the broken heads, productivity was down quite a bit. But what a yield!
Combines are going everywhere around us, more of the same tomorrow...
