Hardly anything....unless you want to....in strategic locations for instance. Hypothetically

Who hauls your grain? My buddy has a big grain hauling operation over in Rogersville.

That’s a pretty spot. Don’t the same people farm that as Anna’s Bottom? The family name escapes me atm.

You talking Ashland? Burkley I think, or at least that is one side of the family.

Getting into wheat or being a farmer? Because if it is the latter good luck. Keep dreaming like the rest of us.

Pretty nice yield. Started cutting some of our wheat yesterday and it was mid/ low 60s. Pretty decent for around here especially since that wheat was grazed in the winter.

They make some serious wheat yields in Alabama, from what I understand. Like 70-80 every year and 90-100 is not uncommon.

We made some pretty good money 5-6 years ago doing wheat+beans under pivots making 70 bushel wheat and 60 bushel beans, but that was when prices were still pretty stout.

It’s a great way to spread costs in certain situations.
