Spring has sprung and the bell has rung for planting to begin for 2026. We started planting beans April 11 and managed five days of work until we received 0.7 of an inch of rain on Wednesday night. More beans are going in the ground than corn at this point. We switched a planter over to corn and got one field planted on Wednesday. We might have found a dry field by Friday afternoon, but with rain in the forecast and cool temps coming we caught our mowing up instead. We received 1.4 inches of rain Friday evening. It’s a waiting game now, but when dry weather returns planting will be in full swing. Strong winds have hampered spraying of herbicides. Enjoy the spring and be safe out there everyone!
