Yeah, absolutely. The extreme wet to we all kind of joked around like one day it's just going to turn off, and boy. It did. You know, we went from couldn't get in the field to go, go, go, and then it just shut off, you know. And it's been dry ever since. I think since June 20th, we've had maybe an inch of rain here on the farm.

So, yeah, everything's burnt up right now and, you know, waited on beans to get ready to go. And, you know, they just keep getting drier and drier every day. And, you know, the more we don't get out, the more we're on the ground at the end of the day.

Yeah, yeah, exactly. You know, just went from finally got some crops in to ended up getting three or four inches of rain in a 24-hour period, and Palm Lake Taylor River got up the banks, and everything flooded. So it's just... Like John said, one extreme to the next.

In general, though, considering the year you've had, what do you think about your field? Oh, I'm well pleased with what we've had, you know, like John said. Southern Missouri here, you know, our typical year on a good year, we're 65 bushel beans. You know, this year I'm set right at 40. So yeah, I'm well pleased. Awesome.

Yeah, no, just like John said, it's pretty simple. Nothing more complicated than what we've been doing. You know, I had the talc powder in it and just kind of used it the same way I would with my talc in my planter. Just super simple. I think it made a huge difference this year talking to some neighbors. You know, I think our yields are a little bit better for the area that we're in this year.

Thanks a lot.
Thank you.
Hey, well, good morning.
I'm in west central Missouri this morning, and I'm visiting with my friend Brent Pearson of Pearson Farms.
So, Brent, when I think about this year, only one word comes to mind, and it's extremes.
It is.
That is definitely a year of extremes.
I remember being out here.
We shot a video earlier this year, and it was raining, and it was wet when we were out here, and then, like you said, it just turned off dry, and you guys have a river on the backside, and somewhere in the middle, you guys had a flood as well.
One extreme to the next.
And you guys are in the field cutting right now.
And Brent, just one thing I kind of want to talk about with products that you've used and changed.
A lot of times when we think about change, we think it has to be complicated and it has to kind of almost be over our heads.
You guys made a change this year utilizing GrowPak AI and pretty simple.
What was your response to that?
What was your interaction with it?
Good deal, right?
Get our micros, get our biologicals, and just be able to get it in the ground without a lot of extra work.
Yeah, absolutely.
Well, Brent, I'll let you guys get back in the field.
I appreciate it, bud.
Appreciate you all.
