But typically I'm just after getting a cover crop in there to break up some compaction and some of that kind of stuff. Yeah.

I think we started playing with cover crops 10 years ago on a really small scale and just have kind of been building. Last year or the year before was where we really took it to where we're going to put it on as many acres as we can possibly. find the time to get it put on.

Uh, no, no, we've been doing it just because we really like what we're seeing in the soil from it.

Um, so we're just, uh, yeah. So a lot of our ground is, yes, it's got all this rock underneath, but it is heavy black clay dirt. And so we get compaction really easily. Um, and it's wet. I mean, uh, I, Most of my friends can't stand to listen to me because every time it rains, I bid about it.

Um, and they, most guys like to have rain here when it's a drought, we're sitting right where we want to be because that's, that's where our ground shines. So, um, Yeah. So we're trying to find ways, hence tiling, and then just trying to get more water infiltration to try and be able to have the soil healthier and not run away. Um, we don't have a lot of slope here, but we have enough.

And if it rains three to five inches or like this past June, when we had 10 inches in one week, um, I don't like seeing that dirt run at wash away. It drives me insane. So we've been doing a lot of rye after soybeans and, uh, we, um, Yeah, we just seed rye after soybeans, and then after our small grains, we're running these blends. So that's kind of what we're doing.
