Gonna switch from corn to cranberries

nickg · Apr 28, 2011

watchin the weather this mornin and weve had 11.63" of rain since first of April here in sw indiana. Usually were plantin by now or atleast workin ground. Got a lot of water in the fields now and more rain comin next week. I think we might have to try and grow cranberries this year cause its lookin like its gonna be tuff to get much corn planted. Im just glad we dont have a whole lot of bottom ground or flood ground cause those guys are really hurtin.

Me too, or maybe rice

Don't do that! Unless you grow cranberries for Ocean Spray all the growers are getting paid about $10 per barrel less than what it cost to grow them. Go with the rice. Japan won't be growing that crop this season at least.

11.6" of rain? Is that all you got? I live east of Seymour Indiana and in the last 2 weeks, we have been blessed with just over 15" of rain, and they are calling for more the rest of the week. We will be kind and send it down your way. We are tired of it.
