NWKS planting, spraying, and misc. lots of pics

[Austin Stewart]

Planting is going slow, maybe 40% done at best, personally we are about 10% done because everything is going into wheat stubble so thats an issue. Anyways, lots of time to drive around and get pictures so here are a few.

Unique circle grain setup, one auger pivots to fill multiple bins, neighbor is putting up brand new setup similar to this



Opposite side



Elevator is expanding, about 12 new bins, smallest are 20,000 not sure what largest are.



One of the largest farms in the area, 2, 24row planters and might be a couple smaller ones somewhere else







Lang diesel, former AGCO now Cat



Neighbors new circle setup (hard to see)





New delivery at CIH



Are the 16 row CIH corn heads still rare? I know this one was one of the few available last year when it was first sold



Misc.





Flat storage



What causes emergence this uneven? related to direction relative to the way last years cornstalks were laid over?





Welcome to kansas, we dont have trees but we do have limestone:





Strip till













Only quad in the area, maybe a 440?













miller dry rig



first pickup sprayer ive seen











Thats all for now, ill try to get some more of planting if we ever start up again.

Looks very busy in your area. Some of those skies in your pics look kinda nasty, especially in the second pic.

Never developed to much







Makes for some cool backgrounds though lol

Almost all the guys around here are done planting. Usually by now in most years they are only50-75% done. The cirlce bin idea is cool.

Nice pics. I saw a couple guys were finally rolling around here again today. Sounds like there were some storms down in your area this evening. Did you guys catch anything? Or did it miss you?

Sprinkled, glad it missed us. No clue what other people got but we definitely dont need any more
