My crop sprayer friend took me up to take some pics of the farm a few days ago....

Looks real nice... kind of like your own private oasis...

How close to the nearest town?

 

[D7E]

You would'nt believe it from the pics but 6 miles...Big town at 22 miles and winnipeg is only 45 mins away..??

Yes, you can see the edge from D7E's place

Nice wind break you have around your set of buildings. Do you use any GPS guided ag equipment? I can't believe how far some of those things have advanced. Like fertilizer applicators and such.

Yards tend to have good windbreaks here for those -40 windchills..No prizes for guessing which is the north side of the yards...We have gps only in the sprayer for pre-emerge night work as we use tramlines in emerged crops,I fail to see the need for gps and autosteer or justifying the cost ....Just another complication and the latest "must have" in my opinion as ours has not been all that accurate or that cheap to run/update...!

I guess the GPS makes a good news story but isn't quite ready for prime time the way it sounds. I didn't think about the updating issues. Hope it doesn't run on Windows

Gratuitious shot of the trusty steed.
