Ever flood's a little bit different. They always leave a mess. You never know what it's going to be.
00:05
This time, the, the creek going into the river right there, uh, and the river moving south, it,
00:12
the way the water rec resided it, let all the cornstalks float to one end of the field. Got about four or five acres here all the way up.
00:21
They're about two to anywhere from two foot to four foot thick. You got me a nice kayak out there that, uh, was left for me.
00:29
Uh, certainly won't be needing that, but maybe I can get Timothy to take it and go duck hunting or something.
00:34
So we're taking that bulldozer. We'll push all these corn stalks to the edge of the field. We'll get them so they pile up.
00:42
And then, uh, over the summer we'll spray some nitrogen on there. We'll spray some other products on to help break 'em down.
00:51
And then next year we'll have really a big berm of top soil right there. And, uh, we'll spread that back out.
00:58
Uh, barring that, a flood does not wash it into the river. And that could happen too. But that's kinda what's going on.
01:05
There's no way we can plant this without getting it outta the way. We got logs in there. Just you name it, you can imagine it.
01:11
That's floated and drifted in. But this is kinda what you have to do this time of year after you've had some floods during the winter.
01:18
We talked about drift piles. This is a little bit excessive of a drift pile, but we're gonna get it cleaned up
01:24
and we'll get some corn planted here in a couple months and we'll do a report this fall and see how it turns out.
