  • ** We are back at it again, there's a slight possibility Ashtyn or Travis 🤣 swathed their 10mm wrench, so Mike needs to run to town and buy another one... but apparently it must be swathing season or something because everyone is sold out! Haha just another day with Mike & Ashtyn 🤷🏻‍♂️😂🙂

    Mike, you need to buy a metal detector and go searching for lost wrenches in your fields. This seems to have better yeild than harvesting this year. The prices are up on 10 mm wrenches this year I heard, but maybe you should store some in your bins and see if the prives will go up even higher. 😁😂🤣 I wonder how many wrecnhes per acre you can find? 🤣

      Hes already explained it many times. He has land far away from the home farm for a bit of risk mitigation. If something disastrous happens at one farm, the other is more than likely to not be affected like the other. It's like not keeping all your eggs in one basket.

    Hey Mike
    Just wanted to comment on your Canola not sprouting comment not to be a know it all but just to share an experience! Up until 2019 I didn't think canola could or would sprout either but that year we had so much dang rain on and before harvest and the swaths stayed out/down for weeks the canola started sprouting. It was a mess, what a year!
    Anyways take care and stay safe, an hopefully you get into some better yields.
