  • ** Mike heads out with a (new to him) Case sprayer and tries to do a burn off to get ready for seeding... But as you can see there's a few bugs to work out and few upgrades the sprayer needs in Mike's opinion.
    Also it's quite wet and Mike is concerned he ll get his sprayer dirty 😆🤷‍♂️

    That sprayer was built about 30 miles west from me. In Benson mn. I'm pretty sure anyway. Also an Excavator as in a tracked backhoe and a big tile plow on tracts, plus a few thousand feet of plastic tile and you'd be surprised how fast it dries out. Pattern tiled every 50 ft and you could farm any lake as long as you have someplace else to send the water. Tile only takes the excess water tthat the soil can't hold. Southern Minnesota is tiled extensively.

      @@wssides water is everyones concern. If one is downhill of someone else, he or she is already dealing with it to some degree. Most water sheds have a creek or river that is public. Here in Minnesota, we have public ditches that serve the same purpose and are maintained by the public as well. There are public tile here as well. They are usually large tile like 10 inch or better. The landowners here usually use 4, 6 and 8 inch tile with the 4 and 6 inch tile usually spaced every 50 or 60 feet. But politically it is getting tougher to tile. From the 30s to the 60s it was drain and farm to feed the world. Now you can't because animals and fish are more important than people. Animals and fish don't pay any taxes but that's besides the point. The world we live in. And us farmers just have to roll with it and die when we're done.

    Mike they spend millions down here moving dirt and leveling the fields for rice. I think you need to buy 4 of the big carts that move the dirt and level out all the low spots. Something else I was going to ask you, I went by a winter wheat field the other day, are you familiar with the rice heads for the combines? They were using them to cut winter wheat. From what I understand, these heads are fantastic. They’re baby blue in color, and I can’t remember the name, but there’s a lot of rice farmed that use them down here. It doesn’t have the real like a normal head does, instead the tops closed, I’m not sure how it cuts but it’s awesome from what I here. Have you looked at seeding by plane or helicopter?
