EJQ 51 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Was helping a friend with first crop. His 886 with M&W turbo on the blower and my 856 with M&w turbo on the copper box. Yeild wasn't that good for first crop. 8 loads off of 20 Acer's that didn't completely have winter kill. 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The rest is sold to a dairy around Battle Creek. They will come with a big square baler and bale the rest. I was wondering on the quality of this wheat and you confirmed it. May I ask? Did he spray for scab and all that? We did hoping it will help. We got hit hard on our wheat a year ago. If it's going to be like that, i am not looking forward to hauling it to town. The guy I buy from shoots for 100bu/acre wheat. Doesn't skimp on fertilizer, fungicide and all the that. I am assuming he did all that this year, but as wet as it was this spring, he may not have had the chance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Farmerboy72 230 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 He told me he was getting discounted $.75/bu for vomitoxin, low test weight, and poor quality. He was pretty bummed about it, and I don't blame him. on the bright side, guys are offering him up to $100/ton for the straw out of the field, and that was back in April! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Use it for bedding when I am feeding cattle out. from what they are saying, 12-13 moisture. Low quality, vomitoxin, and no test weight, just to add more misery to this year. Â On 7/4/2019 at 1:30 PM, Reichow7120 said: You guys doing wheat already? Started the 4th. Have 68 acres off so far. Terminal checking everyone for vomitoxin. So far mine has been .9 to 1.1. 2% is when this terminal starts to dock. They said yesterday they have got some high vomitoxin load's in but isolated. My test weight been 57. Yield, lol, we won't talk about that. Low 70s. But for as crazy wet as it was I guess it could be worse. They had to fly urea on and also flew fungicide on. Too wet for ground application. Got money in it, hopefully selling the straw will help. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
