2009 Planting

We are located in Southern Wisconsin. We have 2500 acres of corn and soybeans, primarily corn. We run acres in 3 counties, 2 in WI, and 1 in IL. This year has been a complete 180 from last spring. We are close to 50% done with our corn acres, in comparison to 5% this time last year. We had 2.5 inches of rain the past few days, so we will be shut down for a brief period of time...hopefully not too long. This is new to me, but I wanted to start this with an open mind. It is always beneficial for producers to learn from each other. I would like this to be an open discusion on crops, markets, input prices, land, etc, etc. Hopefully we all can learn a few things to better our operations and ultimately continue to grow.
