Have they ever explained why there using the grain bags???
@WelkerFarms4 жыл бұрын
We've been asked a number of times why we are bagging grain when we just built new storage. Answer is that new storage isn't even enough to hold this year's crop. Last year we had 50,000 bushels on the ground and another 50,000 in our equipment cold storage. This year we have 75,000 bushels in new grain bins which means another 30,000 - 50,000 needs to go somewhere. This is why we are working with Loftness to make more storage. Welker Farms has been short on grain storage for a number of years now but 2020 is the year we fix that!

My dad started farming in 1955 full-time he had share-cropped prior to that for my grand dad the year I was born 56 he started raising rice medium grain he had bought a JOHN DEERE 95-B COMBINE 13FT header medium grain rice yield was about 130 bushels per acre had a heavy rainstorm with lots of wind on 40 acre field completely lodged flat as pancake... he had no grain cart and the rice dryer was about 35 miles one way.. there was no variable speed contro on the header reel and the 95-B had an raspbar cylinder. Took him 45 days to cut that 40 acres..the rice line was usally a 3 hour turnaround so one to 2 loads aday was about all you could cut and haul. Down rice you have to cut in the same direction as it lays.. he also had to dead head the combine out to the turn row to dump each time..My Mom drove a 1954 R-170 International 1&1/4 ton Bob truck with a 200 bushel bed to the rice dryer...Good ole days Hummmpft!!!
