not sure what "normal" actually is. my dad talks about years where they planted in april and other years in june. the old timiers used nature to tell them when to plant and seed. here in Manitoba they had 2-3 weeks of optimal seeding time. Some years you had 6 weeks but don't bite off more than you can chew. TODAY farmers seem to have so much land they need 8 weeks of good weather to get it all done. I don't feel sorry for any of them getting there corn and beans froze again. If they would farm what they can reasonably take care of in natures time frame they would have a lot less worries and stress. If we had 2X the farmers with half the land they could plant in half the time, or almost. I know it will never happen as GREED will never let farmers go back to farming what they can handle on there own without self driving rigs, and 500 hp tractors with huge pieces of land with no bumps and trees left. I guarantee you that if we had alot of smaller farmers and WAY less big ones our commodities would be priced where they should be and we could make a living on 3/4 a section of land.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
