Around this time of year I start getting emails and calls about conditions and bird populations, here in NW Kansas. Here are a few pics of failed corn and beans, and worst of all hayed CRP's. Since there is no grass, USDA has allowed haying. Bird pops are OK right now, but none of the above bodes well for next year. If the failed corn is left standing it will provide some feed and cover for the coming winter. If not?
