Sunnyside, WA | Here are some pictures of fall harvest.
Tried planting 120 acres of BMR dwarf sorghum milo since we are in a drought. On one irrigation district, we got 44% of the normal 3 acre feet of water. Hard to grow corn and alfalfa on all land with such little water. Bought our own pull type chopper and wagons for the milo and our alfalfa.
Corn silage is chopped and hauled by a custom crew. We pack silage, haul manure, and plant triticale. Yields on corn silage were the best ever for us, which is surprising considering how hot it was this summer. This was our first year with the Houle tank and VTI injectors. Really like the job they did injecting and how smooth the fields were after.
Hope to finish 6th cutting alfalfa haylage this week. Our own is done, but now we are chopping most of the acres we buy. We will be glad to be done with harvest!
