What was so saying about beans going in around here? It’s cold, wet, and snowing now... at least I think crop insurance kicked in for most part a few days ago. (Think I’ve heard April 17th or something said by some YouTubers) Granted I am pretty unknowledgable on a lot of stuff like that.

Depends on where the beans are in the process, but seeds cheap enough for beans some guys will gamble🤷‍♂️ We don’t but we don’t have insurance or take any government money so a loss is a total loss. Depends on how cold it actually gets also, here it’s a bit risky because we can get teen to single digits over night in April somewhat commonly. It KOs the buds on my honey crisp apple tree every so often when we have weird springs like this.

We have insurance and everything, but I prefer to just wait and plant once...

I just don’t understand the rush, by the end of summer I always think things pretty well even out. I’ve never had anyone around us plant early and brag about there bumper crop from doing so. Half the time it’s the guys who’s fields look like **** doing it.

Yeah I just looked two nights of hard freeze below 20 and two more of below freezing high 20s in the 7 day. No rush, plant in early may like usual.

So far we’ve only got fert spread, parts ordered, and livestock stuff done. We did subsoil last fall though.
And I’ve been window shopping in la la land. :lol: :blushnew:

I have yet to see one working in a field where I live. This is the only time I see a machine this size in person.
