I have never dealt with this before but I think we are approaching the point where my edible beans (pintos) are too dry to harvest without causing severe damage. Harvesting at night has little benefit as the seed does not pick up any moisture and tough plants make threshing more difficult. Question for seasoned growers, what has been past experiences with waiting for moisture to continue harvest? I look at the calendar and contemplate waiting for conditions to change. I’m under 500 acres left….
Need a Pickett? I imagine you are probably flexing the beans so a Pickett would not be a possibility. There was a Columbo self propelled combine around last fall in the area that would be capable of running a flex head. That would probably be a good solution.
