[Stonewall]

Our growing season down here starts about now, the we usually start rice harvest late August-early September, but don't get done harvesting beans until the end of October and sometimes into early November. We try to get all the water drained off the fields for harvest, but sometimes the weather won't let us. Being that it's so flat down here, a couple inch rain will fill all the ditches and back up the water into the fields. We run Goodyear R2 rice and cane dual tires on most of our equipment, but a few have R1.5s. Rice is our cash crop, we just grow soybeans for the rotation so we don't sap all the minerals from the ground. Good hybrid rice will yield 175-200 bu/ac, and good soybeans yield 65 bu/ac on the high end. We have also grown medium grain that yeilded 200 bu/ac. Do y'all farm on rolling hills like the pictures I've seen and harvest with tilted combines to stay level on hillsides? Do y'all irrigate your crops or just put them in the ground and let nature do it?
