Clover Update

Ive never been to partial to clover, but then again, Ive never had a really good stand either.  Last fall I overseeded a couple of small places on the farm with Hooper's 6 type Clover blend.  I have to admit that I'm very impressed with the results.  If we ever get any rain, I plan on mowing it  and spraying a grass selective herbicide to knock back the fescue that is coming back.

Planting time at home!!

Finnally got a chance to plant a couple of my small plots here at the home place.  Last year I was so impressed with the beans from Eagle Seed, I couldn't resist planting them again.  I also planted another Group 7 Ag Soybean beside it for comparison.  Part of the fun of plotting for me is seeing what works, what works better, and what doesn't work at all; sometimes on purpose, sometimes not!!!

Got it sprayed a few weeks back, and now wishing for some rain.  Very dry around these parts, but we are praying for it!!
