Need your advice. I grew up on a farm, left, went to school, now have bought 10 acres to start a mini-farm. So, I am familiar to farming.....
The piece I bought is part of 120 acres that is being split off in parcels...local farmer has been renting the land from a big land developer and farming the past 3 years. This winter, 4 of the lots sold...mine being one of them. My wife and planted 120 trees 20 feet from the back fence line of our lot. Last week, farmer came in and sprayed round up on the back half of my land (other sold land too) and then no-tilled beans right throuhg the trees. He even planted to within 2 feet of my 630, swerving around it. Trees dead and beans growing on half of my land. What to do? Maybe miscommunication between developer and farmer? but he could see my driveway and my tractor...had the trees flagged off...who should pay to replace the trees? Trees were not cheap and neither was the day it took me to plant them.
Thanks for your advice.
