  • So obviously farming isn't just tractor sitting as we all know, it's being able to adapt to last minute changes and rolling with the punches! Right now, we are trying to increase our lentil acres and keep a good rotation but at what expense? 😆🤷🏼‍♂️

    We’ve put saltlander down in a few patches that were bad with salinity. The results have been very good. The access to the patches is good just off of a highway and last year I just cut and baled the patches. Went 3 bales/acre.

    Hi Mike, have you thought about using a sponge weed wiper to get these taller weeds in short crops like lentils? It might not be feasible for a farm of your size, but its a neat idea
    Also, I heard humic helps reclaim with saline areas. Maybe you can broadcast it with a drone outside of your busy times
    Hoping for a better year ths year for you at the south farm 👍

    • @TheDuckofDoom.
      @TheDuckofDoom. 14 днів тому

      No, the sodium and chloride must be removed. Usually this would be leaching from rain or an extra heavy irrigation, but in dry areas certain plants can suck up the salt and then be mowed and hauled off. After a few growing seasons the soil levels are reduced enough to grow other plants, but the effectiveness depends on the source of the salt and how fast it builds up.

      I appreciate your opinion on the matter, but I think quite the opposite. If you are broad acre farming every 1/4 the same, I think you are "farming to many acres". Each child learns different and at different pace, each fleld is different.
      Especially when you take on new fields, shall they be treated the same as the ones you have farmed for 10yrs?
