As our focus has now shifted from the harvest of 2014, we have a great opportunity to reflect on the blessings of the previous year.  I wish all safe travels throughout the harvest season!

What a harvest season! Since our last update, we have finished with soybeans and are a couple days away from completing corn harvest.  This year has provided great yields, and an opportunity for many “firsts” on our farm.                

Harvest has been in full swing for the past few weeks.  Yields and weather have been great!                    

With field operations and grain hauling complete, we have shifted our focus to the list of summer projects.  We made two aerial scouting tours over the month of July, and have been very pleased with crop conditions.  The corn crop looks great… stand, evenness and color.  The soybean crop has improved drastically towards the end of the month… color […]

Spring planting is near completion!  The past few weeks have provided ideal growing conditions for crops… warm weather and rainfall is a wonderful combination.  All our corn can be “rowed” in the field, and the plant stand and color is good.  Saturday night, we recieved 1.25″ of rain in the Macon/Christian County area… the location […]

Wonderful week on the farm!  We’re please to share that the 2014 corn crop has been planted, and roughly 20% has now shot through the soil to the surface.  Recent rainfall and the upcoming warm weather should assist in the crop’s growth.  Although no soybeans have been planted, a preplant burndown has been applied to 75% of the […]
