Ed: Glad to hear that cover crops work well back there in Ohio. Here on our farm, however, we are in an extreme drought and so far this entire year have had between 2.7 and 3.9 inches of total precip. Consequently our wheat yields are pathetic. Under such conditions or even normal High Plains conditions, any plant out there using moisture other than a crop is a weed. Of course, we occasionally have wetter than normal years and when that happens, great things can happen out here too. But since that happens on a less than frequent basis here in the High Plains, I'd bet your land prices reflect it and are probably 5 to 10 times higher than ours. Thanks again for your comments.
