Today we're making the rounds checking pivots, turning on irrigation, and getting the first potato pivots of the season running! With winter wheat heading out, spring wheat growing fast, and potatoes finally emerging through the soil, it's exciting to see this year's crop taking shape. We also run into a few irrigation challenges, track down plugged nozzles, adjust water flow, and take a look at our battle against wild oats. Plus, we're officially down to the last of last year's potato crop as the cellar empties out and we wait for fresh new potatoes to arrive.
