Who all is running Yetter 10,000 magnum units?

What sort of bar are you running them on? Dry, liquid, or nh3?

Best NH3 running gear to use when strip tilling?

If I went gas over 32% this seems to be the most common running gear. Anybody out there using something different?

Would you rather -

IF going all liquid for N on corn, would you rather buy a 50k tractor and 15k pull behind sprayer and set it up with Y drops, then be able to use the tractor the other 11 months of the year
OR
An older self propelled sprayer (AgChem 854, JD 4700) in the same…

I have seen more fields planted without autosteer in west central Iowa in the last 20 minutes, than I have in the past three years in Missouri combined.

Whole lotta fields planted, haven’t seen any emerged yet. Dirt is as black as Folgers coffee grounds

Is anyone strip tilling into cover crops?

Here’s my plan, please shoot holes in it -

I have some highly erodible ground, would like to chase the combine with a Phillips harrow/Valmar air seeder in soybean stubble with rye.

Come back late fall or early spring and strip till…

Lotta windshield time this week! Had a strong push the past few days. 100% of the burndown is done. Getting close to the 50% mark on planting. Tons of beans gonna get a cold drink this weekend. 0% planted on corn.

How’s everyone progressing out there on ?

Fall burndown is hands down one of my favorite management practices.

Roundup/24d last minute, right before winter weather set in - just now starting to break. Will run early post app on enlist beans with a heavy residual

This was one of the first farms I cash rented. It took a day and a half planting it with a 1066 and John Deere 7000 six row planter. Now we’re doing 45 acres an hour. Life is awesome!

First day of planting 👍🏼

Grounds a lot more tacky than I was expecting. Switching gears to spraying burndown over the weekend. Cold weather and wet coming in next week. Would rather see dead weeds than cold seeds

What’s your herbicide program for early April soybeans?

How much does your management change?

Thinking I want to sneak in a few acres this weekend before we focus in on corn.

Very excited to put this Fendt_NA 942 and Momentum planter to the test this Spring! Keep an eye on all my socials and Farmer Grayce and i’s show Dirt Poor as we run it this planting season. As soon as this wet weather dries up we’ll be hitting the fields hard 🌽
