What to do with green peas ??

Yea its a Big F$%King crop all right.

Our Yellows look and have a stand for 50 plus and over the scale so far 40 is all we can squeak out. They are small and no one that i know has anything over 45 even in the Banana Belt of Indian head.

Greens lost premium to yellows in 2015. Used to grow Danto greens. When they were dry they were still the size of garden peas. Buyer said they looked beautiful. Price-same as every other variety

only in a small enough area that the 60's will more than make up for 20's...

That's Terrible SK3. 40 bushel crop. 2015 my red lentils went 3-5 bu per acre. That is a drought. 40 bushel per acre is above the long term average. 10% greater then average. Worst. Drought. Ever? I find it incredible that peas yielded that well considering lack of rain. All subsoil but i find that amazing as well.

No one is over 45? reality was last year was the biggest pea crop ever and it averaged 43.

Serious question. What do you hope for when you are planning your seeding and what is your long term pea average

Trade expectation is 33-35 bu average pea crop. My guess is 33

Dave good ground and I said you could dig a hole with a post hole auger and the next day it would have water in it. Plants grew down that's all it is

Or did that new fleet of Green Paint throw a third of everything out the back. Too many high testosterone guys without beards operating the iron. Hard on the hydro!
