Were just down the road silver fox and would agree the barley has altered unbelievably in a week around here similar yields to others with the bonus of been 13% cold air through the drier is so much cheaper than filling calor gas’s pocket .

Grain temp 34deg. Started putting it through drier at half 9 tonight🙈. Hope to be cutting some earlier drill stuff tomorroW
 
I think we should all be working together to under report our crop yields.

Good idea, then the traders don't get export sales on the books and we have depressed prices later into the season and rolls over to crop 22.

Just look what happened with barley, everyone knew they had lots of barley so they shipped it all out and rammed it into animal rations and then it got really tight at the end of the year
