cool clip, keep them coming

That is gorgeous This is the first spring I actually have some cover crop growth ahead of the row crops A lot of years I look at you guys down south and think man that is so nice because we have green fuzz. LOL I found with covers that the Planters have no problem making the slot and putting the seed in the ground. It actually works really well but closing the slot is the challenge

i am amazed how that planted so easy into that Rye , really thought it would block the planter but you did it know problem at all , the weather been so wet here in the UK too but its drying up now I am looking at doing my first Cut Silage in the next week I hope , good luck with your planting Wes , hopefully it goes well from now on

Good luck to you too! It seems like it does better planting into rye 🤷‍♂️

In the Netherlands are we also late. It is wet since october and begin of may we have 2 weeks that we on the field. And the other days it was to wet but we need to do the work on the field. Not ideal but when we are waiting for good conditions we con do only the half of the work.

The whole U.S. is fighting wet weather as well. Good luck to you and I hope you can get all the work done!

Looking good Wes

For planting in the green may I suggest watching griggs farm on KZread. They are based here in Tennessee, but plant in cover crops. Might give y'all some ideas for planting in cover crops. Have a great weekend.

Some bigger farms need multiple planters. There has been a lot of research the past few years that shows planting soybeans earlier than corn results in much higher yields so many farmers have one rig for corn and one rig for beans. We like the air seeder for its simplicity and speed. Planters are more precise but seeders and drills get the job done. It’s all personal preference.
