[QUOTE="NDbowman, post: 343926, member: 1525"] I think all this rain now is just all our prayers from last year finally being answered all at once. Must be a supply chain issue and the rain finally got here, I blame Biden. As to crops not getting planted and prevent plant, It does suck for guys that strictly grain farm. Every day they have to wait to plant is a potential loss of yield. If the prices stay high and they prevent plant, sure they'll get an insurance check but they'll be potentially losing money if the markets stay high till fall and they'd have gotten an average yield they'll actually lose money by PP. But they'll also save inputs, time, and wear and tear on themselves and machinery so it might be a wash. I doubt any of them will be hurt or go bankrupt because of it. Now they've changed the rules permanently on planting cover crops on PP ground and now can hay or graze those cover crops at anytime. So a guy with cattle can get a nice check, plant a cover crop and hay it or graze it later. Grain farmer with no cattle could do the same by either haying it and selling the bales, or let someone else graze it or hay it for payment. Nice way to double dip. I'll have some low spots to go around but doubt my blow sand will have any PP on it. I didn't even know what Prevent Plant was till 2011. That was a year where water was sitting on fields where no one had seen water sit before. [/QUOTE]
