Well, gonna keep it real small this 1st year, just have a funny feeling that its gonna be another dry year. I am gonna leave the 7 acres of rye that I seeded last fall, hoping that Rye will be high again and that I can sell the straw I dont need, will follow that the next year with soybeans. Also 7-8 acres of corn, still have to decide on the seed, will probably be on 36" rows as that is the planter I own, and the closest combine I can borrow is 36", will follow that feild with beans. Lot of trash on that feild, plus saved enough chicken poop to cover that feild. Last, 10 acres will be soybeans RR I still plan on drilling on 14" spacing, following spring it'll be corn. The 10 acres I can rent for $10/acre will not be a good plot if we have a drought, so I am planning on either leaving it sit till fall and go with winter wheat or rye. If I remember oats need fertile soil and decent rain to produce a nice crop. Small potatoes I know, but at leastI will get a taste and learn something before I rent an additional adjacent 60 acres next spring. Planning on trying a preemergent and use RR seed so I can clean it up if needed. Oh yeah, all most forgot , I will also have the ussual 2 acres of sweetcorn, been making good money off that!
