Very southern Mn | So tell me Lotts where you can dump this corn with no lines or waiting. Here if we waited to dump every bushel you wouldn’t get much done til Nov. iIF it was a perfect fall you could harvest dry corn and haul it right to the elevator. If not a perfect fall like most years, you would risk the high winds we normally get a couple times in early Nov, chance of snow and or wet weather making corn wetter than it was while you were waiting in line. You would not have to worry about tillage because you would be starting too late, wouldn’t dry out and snow would fly. That is here.
We have a beautiful bean plant at Fairmont Mn. It would make perfect sense to never dump a bushel at home, just haul it in, no extra shrink, less bin, less electricity, on paper an absolute no brainer. Reality 2-4 hrs to dump the whole fall, at end of season they would only dump what they could grind so than wait became 4-6 hrs. How do you combine beans when you can’t dump them. Do you harvest what you can load on trucks and than take 3 or 4 in at 2 in the morning and harvest 3000 bu the next day again?
Your posts show you have absolutely no comprehension of what real life farming is all about. Storage is one of our best harvest tools in the fall. Here soybean basis is 25-30 cents better than 3 weeks ago. Corn basis will tighten up 25 cents plus carry. Does it make endless money, no but it does pay expenses and my corn and beans are in a bin, not laying on the ground, combine and harvest equipment put away and I can move grain who ever has best basis and control my income for taxes without worrying that somebody will go broke before Jan 1st comes. | |
