Pictures of the planted corn and mowing rye grass

Here is some pictures I took around the farm this afternoon.

Some of the first corn we planted on Sunday afternoon May 12th. So it has been in the ground just 9 days. This is in bean stubble. The ground worked real mellow and great moisture.



This corn was planted May 14 around noon. It is corn on corn. It has only been in the ground one week. I think that is pretty good growth.



This is one of the fields of Rye Grass I am going to bale for hay. It really has grown this last two weeks. It is heading out so we just started mowing it today.



Here is some of the rye in the windrow. It is going to make quite a few bales.



Here is some of the fence I built this spring. This is five strands of barbed wire with wooden post on all the corners. Every other post in the line wood and then steel. Makes a good cattle tight fence.



Here is one of the steepest contours we farm. You really pull a tractor climbing up out of the bottom of this water way. This rye in where I feed some of my beef cattle out side all winter. This was corn last fall and then we chopped it. I then sowed rye on it for a cover and spring forage. The cold spring really held it back. I will plant this field back to corn. It is only a few hundred feet from the one silo. Plus the bottom ground in this field has top soil 3-4 feet thick. We tiled it years ago and rarely got below the top soil. So I manure the heck out of it and pretty much raise continuous corn on it.



We did some stand counts this afternoon too. Most where in the 34,000-35,000 live plants per acre. This is right where I want it to be on my good ground. We have a good start on a real good corn crop.
