I see others talking about taking out trees rather than just a fence.

You do realize that a good windbreak is valuable for crop production too I hope.

More yield from a field protected by a tree line than one exposed to winds. At least that is what research in Ontario showed many years ago and personal experience proves that too.


maybe so but the corn seems to make "record yields" this year with a dry season and hot drydown period !!!!!!!!!!!


Depends on how many fence rows an how thick they are. My home 80 had seven fence rows on it when I bought it and a creek running diagonally through it full of big trees and brush on both banks. Ever notice how little grows on the north edge of a wood line or bushy fence row? I like wind breaks as much as the next guy, but sure don't need them every 40 rod!
