A Slow, Slow Harvest
Nov 17, 2009
It was very nice to have the last two weeks of good weather to harvest corn with. But all of the great weather can do no good if the elevator shuts down at noon every day and sometimes won't open at all for the day. When all you can do is run for four hours before they shut you off, all of the great weather won't matter. Last Saturday, one of the local elevators shut down at 10 am. Time you got your Friday afternoon loads unloaded, you were done. Ours ran to 1;00 pm Saturday and then was not to be open at all Monday.
