Wondering if anyone can help me ID this planter. A buddy has it sitting around on his farm and asked if I was interested in it. Right now for food plots I mainly frost seed clover and then rent a Great Plains no till drill for fall plots. I currently dont have enough acreage to plant corn...
How do you guys carry potted trees through the winter if you do not plant them at their final location during the fall? I have some burr oaks I started from acorns this spring, I plan on planting most of them this fall but I’d like to have a backup plan if I am unable to get them all planted in...
I agree on having the tenant farm the additional area in blue. Long term that gives you the most flexibility with that right half of the property in terms of crp, crop fields, and access. For the yellow area that looks like a great location to try and establish the dbltree rotation. Between now...

We have had similar results with the Fall Release during really dry years like last year in south central Nebraska. Summer Release has came up great for us the past two years and we have drilled directly into that when planting Fall Release like you mention. I don’t have a crimper yet so we have...
Thanks for the advice. I am doing my best to educate myself on how to maximize survival of whatever I end up planting. The mast trees are an idea right now, however I am still trying to determine what is best to do with these old fields. Right now they are in a CRP contract that expires this...
I’ve been reading on this site for some time without actually being a member and I figured it would be worthwhile creating an account to engage in the conversations.
I’m 31 and currently I live and work in Lincoln as a mechanical engineer. I grew up in south central Nebraska in Franklin/Harlan...
