Josh, I have an FSA map but don't know how to put it on here?????? The farm is laid out in a "horseshoe" pattern with water on 3 sides all the way around. I have about 40 acres that is pretty much at river level and the rest of it steps up from there. Fields are kinda irregular in shape, could be fixed with a big dozer. Just kinda thinking about cost/benefit from something like this. Drought years with make a guy wonder about irrigation. One more thing, I work full time off farm so I can't be here all day to baby sit, need something that can run without alot of help--maybe impossible IDK. Tried the hard hose thing a few yrs. ago and it bout killed me trying to run it at night and working the next day, so I don't want to do that again.
