I am in the same boat as Deerdown. I have been strongly considering buying another farm as it is an investment that I really enjoy. Seems like 2-2.5% return is a "good" recreational property these days, most are even lower than that. Even if paying cash this seems like a not so great...

I had my work done about 1.5 years ago. It was part of an EQIP funded project. If memory serves me he worked about 1.5 days and bill was $1,600. He had a brand new Deere 333G (I think that was the letter) and did use a drum mulched. He had both drum and disc. At the time I was interested in...

I think about $130/hr is what I paid to hire mine done

Have some acres that I am interested in enrolling into CRP now. Has anybody explored this in the last few weeks? Is it feasible now or things put on hold?

Thank you! I did receive it but was not able to respond to your PM.

I would be interested in knowing about this place if you are willing to share

Nice work neighbor! Make sure to push some of those deer over onto me!

Found this old sucker pretty close to me, definitely won’t have to worry about it sitting outside! You guys think this would be heavy enough to disc stalks in corn plot after nocking it down for winter? I think it is a Kewanee

I haven’t done corn plots in years but this year I am going to. Going to use dry urea and planter that doesn’t have no-till coulters. Thinking I want something in the 8-10’ range and heavy enough to till the stalks after nocking it over. Located in SE Iowa. Any suggestions what to get?

I placed a very large order of tree tubes from Timber Management last year and will be using some this spring as well. Pretty certain I will have quite a few 5' tubes left over (unused) that I would sell for better price than Timber Management is selling them for. They are 5' tubes. Let me...

I put a commercial grade slime in my front tires with good success. Can’t recall the brand but was highly recommended on forums. Had a flat in rear tire that has rim guard and cost me $280 to fix!!

Congrats that looks like a great farm and a fun project!

Makes sense. I figured it was a diversity concept. Thanks for info

Skip, great video thanks for sharing. In your video you show an area with tsi work and looks beautiful. Right next to it is an area that is wide open timber that looks to be same exact terrain. Why would you not have done the tsi work in the entire area? Is there a reason to leave an area...

I would be interested in this too if we could make logistics work. I am in SE Iowa but our company has an office in Waterloo/Cedar Falls.

I did several patches last weekend. Looking at the weather I was afraid that I may have been a bit late.

Slick, do you remember the auction site that sold these tracts in Van Buren County? I was trying to look them up and cannot find them.

Looking great! I have a similar area on a farm, approximately 10ac or large silver maples on a creek bottom. The creek near it will periodically flood but typically drops back down fairly quick. It is wide open in late fall/winter. Deer wonder through it but obviously never bed. There is a...

Brian, I would be interested in learning more about your drill. Not familiar with the 705NT model. I tried to PM you by was not able to send.

Rob, did you do this yet and if so do you have any update on how to's, parts, tips/tricks, etc? How long did it take?
