    Baling CRP due to drought- my 2 cents…

    Not that it truly matters.... Crp manual was updated February 2023 to allow for "selling hay and grazing privileges. " So you may want to ask about that at your local fsa office. Be aware that managed haying/grazing is different than emergency having/grazing to fsa. Fsa is much more open to...

    Biggest sprayer tank on atv?

    Water weighs about 8lbs per gallon. So that should give you an idea of how much weight your atv can handle. 25 gallons is all I feel safe with on atv. My utv handles my 60 gallon sprayer fine in the bed.

    TSS thoughts?

    Each person has to decide for themselves. Is it effective-yes. Is it expensive-yes. Much like the gut who hunts with a $300 open sight slug gun vs a guy with a custom slug gun, customized turret scope.... up to each to decide what is best for them. It is hard to beat winchester longbeards in my...

    What’s more valuable for holding/producing/hunting deer? Crops vs crp?

    What is the limiting factor between you and your neighbors? If your neighbors already have all the cover, then you having more crops may be beneficial. If they have all the food, then you may benefit from cover. Most crp will allow cp12 food plots. But you need to ask for it specifically on your...

    Simple GPS guidance for the foodplotter

    I have an ag leader compass system. It pretty simple. Accurate enough without any subscription service. It will also generate maps, ab lines, calculate acres,etc. The only downside is that it is no longer sold. So look online at ebay for used models.

    No-Till/No-Herbicide: Is it possible?

    Anything is possible. But it maybe difficult to achieve your goals. You have a huge seed bank just waiting to express itself as soon as you peel back the layers. The fire pealed back the first layer. Take small steps such as reduced tillage or reduced herbicide applications. Small steps. Grant...

    LP 606NT

    Looks fun...but you did it. Maybe get a couple sawmill cut 2 x 10 boards and run down side of trailer while loading/unloading. A couple inches extra would help alot.

    NWSG CRP Planting: Broadcast Spreader??

    Broadcasting some if the natives is difficult. Some are easier. If you have to add fertilizer, mixing seed is an option. Seeding on snow is option as well as using air seeder.

    LP 606NT

    Modify trailer like a lowboy with recessed sides that extend. Look for a Donahue trailer. They can be dropped flat on ground. Then you drive across it and set drill on sideways. Then you remove/tilt up the tongue. Not sure how much of a pain that is with that drill model. Finding the right...

    How much are land consulting costs?

    I don't have an answer for you. But 20 years ago when I was doing forestry and wildlife consulting full time..it was base fee plus a fee per acre. Round numbers would be $1800 base fee plus $10/acre for less than 200 acres. If someone balked at that fee structure then I just charged $100 per...

    Firminator

    That is a great and simple method for drills. It also works great with multiple species blends in drills. I use that method with our customers and it works well. When you do several hundred drill calibrations each year.... simple is your friend.

    Firminator

    I will admit I have not calibrated a firminator since the first ones were sold back in early 2000's. This method has some assumptions such as seeds per lb. But better Than guessing. But you can use Seed count method for broadcast spreaders. for example:Rye has 18,000 seeds/lb With a 90lbs...
