IN | I’ll use your famous line as Joe R…”I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you.” I know the shag carpet corn doesn’t fall down when the sweeper goes across it but there’s such a thing as weak stalks in November when a 40mph wind kicks up and knocks down 10%. Oh and don’t forget harvesting corn at 20% moisture and coming back a week later at 16% there’s about a 5-10bpa drop. Wildlife consume some more. Ok that’s just corn. Beans? Oh it rains on dry beans and then they dry out again and pop open. Could lose 5bpa from just that alone. Or hail. But those things done exist in the world of carpet farming. Ask anyone on here if the yield is the same from one week to the next on the same field pass to pass and I bet it’s not. Yes and go ahead and tell me that corn left out until January or February when it freezes will still make as much as it would have October 15th. Go on now tell me how it will. I would entertain the ideas of how one should go about the losses associated with a late standing crop. I’m all ears Joey | |
