About 10 days now, +/-, until planting. But, already starting to get some action.
There is a new circle my son is putting in this year. Brand new well and pivot, on pasture land he is breaking out. Has not been farmed in years. Since there is no chemical history on it he is going to put organic peanuts on it. He has been up there every day breaking it out, digging and grubbing out stumps and roots. Been working up there until 10-12 at night trying to get it ready. As dry as it is here he has also been running the pivot to get some moisture down. With all the fresh turned dirt and the water running pigs are already starting to come in even though it has not been planted yet.
We made a quick run up there last night to try and catch them but no dice. I think with all the activity right now they are coming out in the wee hours of the morning. That will change when the peanuts go in the ground though.
I have to check zeros good this week and make sure the equipment is all ready to roll. And get some more ammo loaded up. By middle of next week we should be protecting fields.
