Finally a good week of planting. Planters, sprayers and tillage tools filled Hancock County roads this week. We were able to get 90% of our corn but struggled to get beans in because of tractor and planter issues the first part of the week. Throughout the county, there was a lot crops put in…

Rain and cool weather put the brakes on last week. Very few farmers got into the field on Monday. This coming week looks great, as we plan to have a big week with temperatures warming up and we will plant until it rains or we get done.

#Plant22 was in full swing in Northern Hancock County this week. A lot of both crops were put in the ground. Southern Hancock needed another day or two to be in good condition. We were able to plant some soybeans. Next week looks like it will be slow with a cool rain Monday night and again W…

Last week had some scattered rainfall totals. Our Carthage and south farms received a half-inch more than our fields north of Carthage farms. This allowed some people in northern Hancock County to get some stuff planted a few days later in the week. The majority of the county is still too wet. 

It is currently 34 degrees and windy. There was finally a tiny window to get some burndown on, and some guys even planted a few acres of soybeans on Thursday. We received rain/snow on Easter and more chances of rain this coming week. Looks like we will be in standby for at least another week.
