Random thoughts. You were discussing on here around a year ago that you fellows made a big move on some high priced ground. I think the top priority is to get the debt paid off ASAP and as long as the lack of technology is not compromising production I would not worry about updating equipment. When I say compromise I don't mean plant 10 more acres a day than you used to or the same with harvest. An upgrade for you to be worthwhile should increase yield by at least 5 percent or more in my mind.

Most of the guys here have the benefit in being in a very stable situation financially where there is already enough money to keep dad and sons households in SUV's when they turn down a landlord that wants top dollar all the time. They think they are the dog wagging the tail on rent but the reality has always been rental rates has readily moved regardless.
