They are a whole lot of factors as to how many pounds you get
per stalk. Rain, temp, insect, wildlife. How many flowers are on
each stalk. We made a lot of money, that year. In the winter, the
grain elevator called, they said not to plant them, the market was
over loaded, no one to buy them.
I've thought about it a few times, but with oats, soy beans and
cotton fetching pretty good money, why take the chance. Then,
you have your winter wheat, that you gather in the spring, it pays
real good also.
It's a gamble, no matter what you plant. The weather, insects, wild-
life. Any or all that can wipe you out in one season. Thats when the
cattle comes in to play. You can always move cattle, it's our cash
crop.lol
