Anybody else down south need another tropical storm? Looks like its making a beeline straight for Georgia where we definetly dont need anymore moisture period.I started custom cutting beans two days ago with the moisture still running in the 16 to 17% range.These beans just wont dry down this year.We are already bogging through spots that dont usually get wet.All day your butt is pinching the seat just hoping that it pulls on through when it starts spinning!I dont usually run duals in beans because of space issues with the next row with the row crop head butI am seriously considering dragging them back out to put on just so it dont fall out of sight in the ripper furrow.If we get anymore rain soybean quality is going to become a major concern.I know everybody else is in the same boat.If you have never seen a 642 Ford with tracks,you might before this season is over.Hopefully this system will turn and give some nice fishing vessel a bath out in the atlantic.
 
We often get the remnants of those storms, even this far north. I hope it turns too - I just got going agin on chopping corn yesterday. Still need 4-wheel drive in some areas. Corn's a little dry for good silage, but still OK for steers. 3 loads to go. Only 3 fields of beans cut around here before all this rain started, that I know of. Heard they had to be dried, too. Neighbor tried his beans Wednesday - running 18%, and too muddy. Glad I don't have any to cut. Will be getting the 1400 ready for corn later today or tomorrow.
