Thanks for the photos.

In my area (Piedmont of NC), the corn harvest is about to wrap up. I saw some early corn being combined in late August this year.

The beginning of our soybean harvest is about a month away -- most of the crop is double-cropped behind wheat and isn't planted until mid- to late June.

Opposite side of the world and just into spring, we have had a lot of rain and a few bursts of warm weather managing about 25°, around us they are starting cutting for silage although I haven't seen the balers out yet.
We cut about late November when it will be in the low 30's, takes about a day, with a turn halfway through, to dry before baling.
When it hits high 30's it's time to go in and put on the aircon.
Oversight on my part, we use Celsius to measure temperature.

Here's some pics I took of my friend's operation a couple weeks ago with my Drone. They are 50% done now.
