Here’s what’s been going on on the farm. Over the past couple of months we’ve been tilling and prepping the soil…

Strip tilling the soil and applying fertilizer to create a good seed bed to give our crops a good start
We planted corn and dry beans, periodically checking the seed depth and spacing…
We’ve been watching the malt barley grow…
…and caring for it by irrigating and spraying for plant health.
We’ve been watching the corn grow as well…
…and maintaining the crop through application of necessary fertilizer and weed control.

Cultivating flood ground. It removes weeds and creates a good ditch so the flood irrigation water can more easily travel down the rows.
Right now Tyler and his help are dashing between irrigating, spraying and cultivating. It’s a busy time of year…but, it’s also a very pretty time of year.
God Bless You & American Agriculture,

And the seeds that fell on the good soil represent honest, good-hearted people who hear God’s word, cling to it, and patiently produce a huge harvest. – Luke 8:15 (NLT)
Love seeing the farming side of things. Great images Liz!
