We made the decision to transition from a "farrow to finish" to a "wean to finish" system.  This means we will now be purchasing baby pigs.  We renovated the hog buildings to accommodate this change.

We purchased a new tile plow to install our own drainage tile.  This will move excess water from below the soil surface so crop yields will improve.  We will use our existing GPS signal for grade control.
