My day job has been too demanding to keep up with doing sweet corn during the summer so this spring I decided to plant oats. I already had an Allis All Crop combine so I had a way to harvest them and could use some oats to grind into hog feed or calf creep feed plus it would save me from buying straw.
Broadcast 3 bags of oats on about an acre on April 8. Early on I thought I should spray but never did. Oats came up nice and headed out beautifully and out-competed the weeds for the most part. Yesterday (July 15) they were dry and had rain in the forecast for today and I have to be out of town this week and the high humidity wasn't going to help dry them further.
Got the All Crop hooked to the Oliver 88 and went to work. Oats made 80-90 bpa. Baled 35 bales of real nice straw. Was kind of nice to take another step in making my little hobby farm more self-sufficient.
