Morris, IL | As in percentage, how much can you plant in a day. Not really looking for perfect days or bad days just your average.
I probably would say 8%. Two dry weeks just planting not including spraying I squeeze in.
If you run two planters and have two people running include both. If have 5 include all 5.
Does anyone think farmers are getting carried away, I see lots of risk planting an entire crop in a weeks time, just seems like wrong rain can really screw you. Also a dry streak can burn a guy.
I remember last year I planted few days middle of April got over 1 foot rain on it, it turned out ok didnt have to replant much it was our best ground. I remember thinking man glad I couldn’t plant anymore because I probably would have!
