...if I plant some corn? This is what I asked myself in the fall of 2013. Can't be that hard! Not like hay! Besides, price is thru the roof! Well....
1) We could have a record snowfall leaving the ground packed and saturated. 2) It could rain almost constantly for two months after snow melt. 3) Tillage might be harder than it looks. 4) The new to you equipment that you have never used before could have a higher learning curve than expected. 5) Your fertilizer application skills may need practice. 6) Ditto Roundup application. 7) Woodchucks will spend the summer eating your nice young plants. 8) 100 day corn may take 200 days to dry if you plant it a couple weeks too late. 9) When it doesn't dry you learn that the nice fella at the elevators favorite saying is "bend over". 10) You will see more deer on the farm than you have ever seen before, but you can't shoot them because they are in the corn. 11) You will walk out one day and see the most enormous flock of blackbirds you have ever seen and, boy oh boy, are THEY happy! 12) Squirrels will now turn up their noses at the black walnuts in favor of your corn and you will step on one and roll your ankle. 13) The amazing price point of a bushel will fall like a meteor during the year and destroy your home world. 14) While you are waiting for it to dry you get bored and start playing around with the dead trees in the woods...that's another story...ouch!
