@UNL_CropWatch @Pasture_Forage Excuse my English not drug (drought)...lol

@UNL_CropWatch @Pasture_Forage I'm hearing there are some severe drug conditions in Colorado and Nebraska.... With your boots on the ground what are you hearing?

With #forage needs high, many producers are rethinking #wheat, rye & triticale as grazing options this spring — plus grass tetany & #pasture establishment tips in this @Pasture_Forage. buff.ly/YFz5fzy #NebExt #NebraskaAg #AgTwitter #CropProduction

@D_D_Peterson Well prices keep getting better for old crop and new crop. The industry I think is nervous about the reduction of dry bean acres being grown in North America in 2026

@drybeanworld I wouldn’t think prices could get much better but it seems new crop has been inching up.

With Mexico having 7 months to go before their summer crop of dry beans will be harvested, I wonder how aggressive a buyer they may become over the next 2 months??? Even though their crop was better than the previous 2 years, it wasn't great!

Question of the day. Are $0.33 per lb US 2026 crop prices in North Dakota enough to encourage acres of black beans and pinto beans?

I was always a loyal monarchist but here is one more reason for the West to become a republic.

Today the flag on our home is flying in conjunction with how our government is functioning!

Producers are holding off selling black beans and pinto beans while dealers are working at determining their positions and establishing a proper valuation for producers. Nobody wants to sell their beans at a loss!

If anyone out there has copies of the old US moisture charts, could you please send them to me?

Cutterbar loss on these blacks was cut by 90% with the airbar. Don’t think I’d tell anyone to run edibles without one now. Easily 100-200/acre more gets in the tank in tough conditions.

If we see a lot more of that as the producers get back to the field nice quality might be able to move the price a little...

It looks like this will be a two-tone Harvest. Some sprouting and discoloration on certain types of beans still in the field. After too much rain any beans that have lost some of their color should be kept separate.

@D_D_Peterson Black beans are very forgiving. Unfortunately the market is saturated.

@drybeanworld Ish hopefully not widespread. I Just got blacks left but they seem forgiving.

The white mold factor this year is more significant than a lot of people thought. Industry is starting to have quality concerns and has slowed down selling 2025 crop.

@D_D_Peterson Kidney beans that are dry can swell up again when it rains and the seed coat loses its integrity for canning purposes. Pintos can discolor and navy beans can also get stained or have Earth tag affecting markets. Cranberry beans quality is usually affected first.

@drybeanworld Quality concerns in what class of dry bean ?

@BaldurBarons Yes I believe I have one. It might be of interest to you. I'll send you some pictures tomorrow.

Anybody on here looking to sell a 1000 gallon water tank they don’t use anymore?

Nice looking cranberry beans with decent moisture and 149 seeds per 100 g. Yield is very respectable... Hope the weather changes so we can get at the Bean harvest and get the job done!

Found a tile line.And down she went. But without em the whole field would be mud and not cutable.
