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...

For several years I had been driving by a farm house on the west side of Indianapolis that had a John Deere combine parked in high weeds in a lot behind the house. The gentleman no longer farmed because the entire area was developed with housing and light industry. I had stopped several times and knocked on the door but no one would answer. My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
