I am now disking

As often happens, one gets moved from one piece of equipment to another. Karl went to operate a polymulcher which follows in fields we have done and gone. It works the soil breaking the lumps of dirt into smaller and smaller pieces in preparation for the seeder.




In this view you can see the disked portion to the left and the un-disked green area to the right which has been spread with manure.
This field is completely green with a cover of weeds. It actually looks like a lawn it is so green. If this was a non-organic field which is regularly sprayed with herbicides you would see very little weeds.
When we are finished working the land and planting takes place, this field will be completely free of weeds, not one will be showing.

Ah....but those weed seeds still in the soil are just waiting to sprout right along with our crops. It is then that the non-ending battle with the weeds takes place. It never stops. Only when the crops are harvested do we slow down the weeding and that is after the soil is turned over one more time and rests over the winter.
