Never heard how the wheat crop turned out for you. Around here it was only 15 -25 bu. , but did get some. Three weeks earlier than usual. Colorado was all over by the 4th. Irrigation water has run out and many irrigated corn fields are dead/done. North East Colo is booming with oil activity (niobrara and horizontal drilling) Roads are over run with trucks.

Just had a storm come past last night, but fell apart before it got here. Any corn that is not irrigated is pretty much gone by now and in some of the sandy areas it is already laying down. Dad picked some from a 10 acre patch of his that is on the crick bottom, and it had decent kernals about half way up but then they just faded into nothing. How bad will this be for winter wheat Allen? [Reply]  [No Email]

End of August 2010, I plowed some unused ground, was so dry it made dust, never saw dust from mold board plowing in this area before, could hardly believe it even worked. [Reply]  [No Email]

HOw does the alfalfa do during long periods of drought like this year? Does it go dormant and come back when the moisture returns? [Reply]  [No Email]
