This year I am going to try to get some action photo's of the proccess around here known as "choppin corn". The county fair just wrapped up which bring's out the giddiness in the farmer's as soon the harvest will start. More that likely by the end of the week the field's will be opened up( end row's chopped and lane's chopped for the dump truck's). They say that the best time to harvest is when the milk line in the kernel is 2/3 way down but it is a balancing act since the stalk can not be too dry or it loses all it's nutritional value. Here are some photo's to get started.
1st photo is a pic of some corn with my truck infront so you can see how high it is.
2nd photo is of an ear of corn which is not quite ready to be chopped
3rd photo is just a pic of the contract lima's taking in some sun
4th and 5th photo's are of one of the field's that was so so so close to being developed
