[QUOTE="Farmer Roy, post: 6510242, member: 71668"] don't worry, I fully understand how difficult a wet harvest can be I've had my fair share of wet wheat ( we are a land of extremes ) in the past. Have seen roots growing out of heads of wheat on a number of occasions. Have also had two entire wheat harvests 100% wiped out by flooding in 98 & 2000 ( on an open floodplain, so water is slow moving & doesn't cause much washing, but wheat was underneath water / standing in water for nearly two weeks, straw rotted & heads fell into the mud Have harvested grain sorghum & sunflowers standing in a foot of water Believe me, I know all about wet harvests & how expensive they can be I sympathise with you lot struggling with it now, I hope you get through it (y) [/QUOTE]
