It's a wrap!

Shane posts Sept. 6:


I guess this about wraps it up. Final tent removal will take place over the weekend and early next week. Next we'll till, seed and monitor the plot unti next year when we start all over again.

All plots were sprayed with insecticides immediately following the Farm Progress show. To fulfill compliance requirements we cannot plant that area back into corn or soybeans until next spring, so to conserve soil through the winter months and gain organic volume next year, wheat is our best option. After wheat is killed next June or July we will then plant winter rye to set up the plots for the 2009 show.

See you next year -- in Boone, Iowa!
