Today was another day when I asked myself at the end, "where did the day go?" The ideal harvest conditions have continued and we are taking full advantage of them. Our yields today were in the 40s, with test weights at 64 and 65 pounds. These...

When I looked at the clock and realized it was 7:30pm, I could hardly believe it. Today flew by! I guess that's what dry heat and a breeze will do - perfect harvesting conditions! Between constant harvest action and moving equipment from field to field...

Nothing says "America" like 70 bushel wheat (and 65 pound test weights), which is exactly what we were blessed with today. Busy combine + busy truck drivers = one happy harvest crew. You could say things are going pretty well here in St. Francis, Kan. Regardless...

Osowski Ag Service will be bidding adieu to Lyons, Kan. after a 10-day stay. In a harvester's perspective, 10 days feels like a long time since we are all about the in-and-out approach; pulling into town, harvesting our crop, and shipping on out. The rain...

Today, I am thankful for the wind. We have had our disagreements this summer but today, it really came through. After all the rain we have received, a hot and windy day was just what we needed to get the wheat back to harvesting condition....

Remember the other day when I said we were finally able to get back in the field? I shouldn't have exhibited so much excitement. The storm clouds must be attracted to harvest excitement these days because the following morning we woke up to the sound...

As strange as it may sound, waiting for the wheat to dry is far more exhausting than harvesting. There is always something to be fixed, tweaked, perfected, modified, or even tore apart. It also means we are all under each other's feet. The type of...

After being at our third stop, Lyons, Kansas, for a day, we have already been chased out of the fields by rain. We got almost a full day in before the clouds rolled in and we rolled out. I was on my way back from...

I feel as if humidity has been a frequent topic in my recent posts, but that is because it is something that we simply cannot get over. It directly affects how our combine runs, our exhaustion levels, and how the wheat behaves when going through...

The song "The Wind" by the Zac Brown Band came on the the radio this afternoon on one of my elevator trips. It's a catchy little tune but on days like the ones we have had, it is a friendly reminder that the wind will...
