I wish you the best for 2025. Sounds like you have had a tough run of things. I couldn't imagine what 48 inches of rain would look like here
Thanks..I'm retired from farming and I'm now just a landlord...I just want my renter to do good as we are in this together..Just to show you how wild the weather is here we had 70.60" of rain in 1999..Had 13 inches in April,13 in May,and 15 inches in June...It tore things to bits and the crops were below average..All the corn had to be replanted way late which never works....We came back in 2000 and only got 35.2" of rain..However,we had good wheat and timely rains in June and July made for a great corn and milo crop..However,it completely forgot to rain in August and 50 bu potential beans only made 20..It still was a good year but the damage to the fields was bad.. |
