    Again, George is a walking encyclopedia on how to do the best on his land. Love his voice.

    I love how your Dad kept telling you to stay being positive and kept telling you how you did the best you could do with the conditions you were given. You can stress yourself out but it’s not changing the outcome so you learn to go with the flow. The same can be said about harvesting hay. You can have the best hay crop in 20 years but if the weather doesn’t allow 3 good days of drying then you just do the best you can to get it done. Thank you for a wonderful video !!

    Absolutely loved this video. I felt like I was a teenager again checking out all our fields with my Dad. Our landscape was about the same as yours. Some people thought we were crazy to even drive a tractor on some areas.

    Your corn looks amazing compared to the corn in the greater Green Bay area where I'm from. Lots of guys just got their corn in around the 20th of June. It's been raining every few days. Most is very short and yellow.

    Hair on our Western Pennsylvania farm we like to have oats in anytime between the end of March and the end of April preferably mid-april season 2 rated 2 1/2 bushel to the acre with about a 20 to 25 lb alfalfa grass mix. That gets us about a 5-year haystack if everything goes well some of our guys in the community will cut them when they're in boot, I've been told that that is really good for butterfat production if you do it that way

    Most custom operators are set for 30" rows. Your 38" rows may not line up with the tires on custom machines as well, unless they adjust for the wider rows.
