May 2024 Update

The farm team finished seeding Wednesday night with the rain delays of the last 3 weeks. We started on April 12 so it was 48 days from start to complete, with shipping as usual which was steady for about 3 months. Crops look very good and a little bit of filling in misses, and low spot re-seeding is happening now.

Blair took our boot stage forage cuts in our demo plots from the rye already and will follow up with a milk stage in a few weeks.

Rye prices have really increased and we have a few buyers looking for rye if you had any. With the nice wet spring and decent prices I think there will be a lot of fall crops seeded this year. We will be launching a few new hybrid rye varieties, on our second sales season of Tadeus fall triticale and also launching Coldfront winter wheat.
