In them hills.
I think one of the most frustrating things about this fall is the fact that as a guy is trudging around in a fking snow suit freezing my azz off all I hear about day in and out is Global warming! Makes me want to scream!!
And them someone corrects you and says climate change.

Makes me want to hit them over the head with a grain shovel.

You’d be Suprised how well the grain sheds the water. He have had oilescon ground b4. Although we did round bales and filled to top of them. Very minimal spoilage after some rain and snow.

I bet it’s high enough moisture the rain won’t bring it up much. Been a pile of crazy tuff grain taken off last 2 weeks. Rest of us will take remaining off dry this coming week and next you could say I’m still glass half full about harvest lol

I have a neighbor that piles a lot of grain during harvest and even sitting out all winter it is surprising how little he loses over the time it sits on the ground. Maybe 20 bushels is left after he hauls it.

I bet it was built and designed by a Sask farmer lol. I subscribe to Farm Show magazine and there is a lot of pretty cool stuff built in Sask over the winter months.

Seen it on Farm Gate, I believe it was a guy from Sask. not much to do here during the winters. Mountains too far away for the home bodies. Lol invest in a big shop and build fun stuff to keep your sanity.

Just hold on a minute here, how about it stays great weather till all crops are off, then it snows like a bastard for flat land sledding(if it does take till December I'll wait)

I'm still waiting for Cat 401 to pull in with that fleet of hungry Deeres to finish me up?
