ive dealt with them before,but just bought seed to plant. Ive never used their equipment. all ive personaly planted has been old farmed ground and i planted it with a regular drill.some of this ground was in a fire this summer and it was so dry it burnt right to the roots. some i disced or plowed to stop the fires.those areas wont be much of a problem since i could work them up and replant as I normaly do.biggest problem is family had this ground leased to a neighbor for the last 20 years or so and he way over grazed it.that and the drought sure has it in sad shape.ive went in and mowed a lot of the weeds down the last couple of weeks thinking that may let the grass get a jump on them this fall and winter since thats when we get the most rain typicaly.kind of afraid to spray this fall. since grass is so stressed already i thought i would try to let it recover a little before stressing it more.mowing,spraying and possibly replanting 480 acres isnt going to be cheap no matter how i go, so im trying to figure the best way.IF my mowing helps this fall ,its possible it might recover on its own,but it sure doesnt look good. i sure dont want to till it all up and start from scratch if i can get out of it. classic case of being land poor on this place.could sell it as is,but i think the grass would more than pay for itself if i got it up in shape first.or it could be usefull again ,either way it sure is a money pit like it is.

They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
