My question is: How long will a un-harvested crop last in the ground before they are no good anymore? I am asking this because in the past few days I started wondering about what will happen with the beans. There seems to be a lot of soybeans still out there yet that have not been cut yet. I understand it was a tough year for them in and around the WNY area. A lot of the guys I talked with the past few weeks say the moisture content never got low enough to combine them. Also I was told that China has not been buying the soybeans from the US so that's why everyone is sitting on them. So then in the past two weeks we got quite a bit of heavy wet snow and I am noticing in some of the fields that I pass by everyday, that the plants have been knocked over or laying down because of the snow. Another thing is that before we got the snow we had a lot of rain thru out the fall. The ground never had a chance to freeze so it is a muddy mess under the snow. So that's why I have been wondering about this, when is it to late to try and combine them and salvage some of the crop? I guess when would you cut your losses and wait till spring and plow them under? Thanks in advance for the input...

Today's Featured Article - Madison's County - by Anthony West. Philip Madison has been a good friend of mine for quite some time. He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
