Independence OR | We got our harvest started last week with our peas. Our cool wet weather delayed harvest and hurt the yields some as well as increased mildew, but at least we got something. As soon as the combines left the field we started planting sweet corn behind them. I strip tilled some of my acres with my Dawn strip till rig as well as conventionally worked some. Both fields I planted last week are out of the ground and looking good. The Dawn ripped through WET pea residue that was like 8 to 10 inches thick in spots, very impressive. We had some clods in spots but it was all followed by irrigation right after planting.
