Spring is right around the corner! We're in the process of getting Equipment, Seed & Fertilizer ready for spring planting. Also, trying to find a good 12-row planter, some type of vertical till disk, and sprayer still. We had some issues with getting the air cleared out of the fuel lines when switching out fuel filters. It was the first time servicing this tractor so next time should go a lot more smooth.

I also got the 2nd Farm Bought back in January. It's 88 acres and 85 are tillable. That Farm will be going into corn along with the first farm I bought, 120 acres and 45 acres in row crop.

I thought some people may be interested in the fertilizer program, but I also didn't want to bore the others by talking about fertilizer numbers the whole time.

All Farms are getting soil sampled this spring, and the 45 acre (1st Farm, Corn on Corn Farm), is getting-
-135# of NH3
-30# of Liquid Nitrogen (32%)
-45# of Urea

And P&K

this Corn on Corn Farm is gonna be challenging this first year.
