It seems guys that go corn first year after crp have to use a mold board plow and I hate having to use one. Makes everything so soft and prone to erosion. Much easier to do beans year one

I had one skunk this summer. Have you figured out how to dispatch them without spraying? Mine sprayed a little but not awful.

I was after the coons pretty good this summer. Declared war when we saw a few very large patches of corn destroyed. Think the count was around 150 when we quit right before harvest.

I ordered some earlier this fall from ww native seeds in Epworth. Don't know if they would still have any.

Found 2 dead bucks doing fieldwork today. Never had anything this bad before. Just when we were getting the local population built up some. Really sucks.

This nice 8 had a doe locked down on a brushy crick today.

Just watched a buck run a doe up and down a fence line for 10 minutes before she jumped the fence and they both disappeared. Too far away to tell if it was a young or mature buck. Didnt remember to put binos in the tractor this morning.

Surprised in a good way or a bad way?

I hadn't seen a mature buck all fall while farming. Saw one yesterday afternoon and another one this morning. Also pulled a dead doe out of our pond this morning. Been dead a while.

We had one like that last year that came out of the corn we were combining. Was small enough it sprawled out in the stalks to hide instead of running for cover. This was a long ways from any timber. I assumed the doe got bred really late because she lived so far from other deer.

I'm in east central. South of waterloo. West of cedar rapids. We farm on both sides of a bike trail that is really good cover and refuge for the birds.

I said the same thing last year, and it's true again this year. Seeing a lot more birds while combining corn than years past. Even saw quite a few doing beans which don't see them often. Also saw birds on farms where we never used to.

If you own it and rent out tillable acres, you are good to go.

The deer here are very recent deaths. Within last week or two.

Have found a couple fawns while harvesting that are very recent deaths. Neighbor showed me a picture of one of my top target bucks found a few days ago and dnr says ehd. I just hope it didn't wipe out a bunch more.

I use an android phone. I text myself the pictures and save the pictures from text which resizes the pictures automatically. Kind of a pain in the butt, but it works.

Hope they figure out who he is and nail him. I got no time for trespassers. Caught a neighbor in March on my trail camera trespassing on his ranger and tried to deny it till I sent him the picture.

Also what are you using for soil? That looks like a lot of growth for one season.

Are you just using a 5' chunk of conduit for a 5' tube? How deep do you need to pound in the conduit?

Hitch on the front of a skidloader or ranger makes a huge difference. We back all kinds of wagons and other running gear in sheds and looking forward instead of backwards is a game changer.
