If we have a "good year" prices drop like a rock. Have a bad year, and, well, prices drop like a rock too. We got too dry in March, flooded in April, May, and June. Decent weather in July. Now August is getting too dry- fast. Too much rain early ment some corn late getting out. My beans look better than I,ve ever seen them. I have 2 fields that are looking like 65+ bu. to the acre. (That's a big WOW around these parts) We had a tractor stolen, early in the year. (My deceased father-in-laws JD4440) Another decided to loose an engine, right at hay cutting time. That was a $6500 hit. (Plus 6 weeks down time) Nobody ever said this was easy! I still wouldn't trade my "job" for anyone else's. Hang in there. Something tells me that better times are right around the corner.
