    George is a man of knowledge.
    Always enjoy listening to him.
    A great farmer in my opinion.
    Thanks for the update, take care !!!

    Again, George is a walking encyclopedia on how to do the best on his land. Love his voice.

    I love how your Dad kept telling you to stay being positive and kept telling you how you did the best you could do with the conditions you were given. You can stress yourself out but it’s not changing the outcome so you learn to go with the flow. The same can be said about harvesting hay. You can have the best hay crop in 20 years but if the weather doesn’t allow 3 good days of drying then you just do the best you can to get it done. Thank you for a wonderful video !!

    Thanks for taking time to show us the crops. On the farm one year is never like the others.That is what I miss the most about farming now that I am off the farm!! What a beautiful day to look at crops.The sky was so so blue. Thanks 😊.

    Absolutely loved this video. I felt like I was a teenager again checking out all our fields with my Dad. Our landscape was about the same as yours. Some people thought we were crazy to even drive a tractor on some areas.

    In Wisconsin, my Dad farmed in Rock and Jefferson counties, he told me the standing water in the Corn fields usually was not a problem as long as the standing water did not last more than 10 days or so.

    Aaron, considering how that land you purchased has not been taken care of, I think your crop looks pretty good. Put some manure on and till it in. Great video. SE WI is looking very good for our crops this year.

    Keeping good records for any venture is so important. You can't figure out where you're going unless you know where you have been. Sounds like Dad has it down pat and Aaron is learning.

    Your corn looks amazing compared to the corn in the greater Green Bay area where I'm from. Lots of guys just got their corn in around the 20th of June. It's been raining every few days. Most is very short and yellow.

    Hair on our Western Pennsylvania farm we like to have oats in anytime between the end of March and the end of April preferably mid-april season 2 rated 2 1/2 bushel to the acre with about a 20 to 25 lb alfalfa grass mix. That gets us about a 5-year haystack if everything goes well some of our guys in the community will cut them when they're in boot, I've been told that that is really good for butterfat production if you do it that way

    The alfalfa looks beautiful! I was thinking that you had gone a bit heavy on your seed rates, but I see why you did it. 👍👍

    The corn, soybeans and oats look great so far. The hay is impossible to bale w/o rain damage. Rain comes every other day. Strange year. NE WI.

    With all of the rain and all your hills I would think you don't get much "drown out" but in the valleys between could almost be like rivers.

    Most custom operators are set for 30" rows. Your 38" rows may not line up with the tires on custom machines as well, unless they adjust for the wider rows.
