Farming #101 In My Day
By Mark Flippo
Growing up on a farm, I learned there were many steps to having a good crop! You must first plow the winter ground under, because of all the winter snow with its nutrients and such. Now the ground is all lumpy from the plowing you need to
disk the ground causing the lumps to be broken into smaller lumps. Next harrowing puts a finer breakdown for the next step
to be done. Then fertilizing followed by planting followed by weed and pest spraying. Now you wait as the rain and sun does its job! It grows all summer. Most of the time harvest is in Sept. Some areas corn is first to be put in the silos then soybeans are next. Others it is just the opposite. Depends on the farm area and the farmer.
The next year you alternate crops in their respective fields. Every seven years you let the land rest because going back to the Old Testament time. You learn fast where every gully, giant rock or other hindrance is. Low lying areas can flood from time to time, and you lose that part of your crop that you messed up by planting in that area. When you reach out with this message of Truth you must know your area in which you are trying to plant in. The wrong area and you get no good ground out of it. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Get yourself prayed through your carnality so you can hear the impression of God into which area you should go. Know your field of Labor! We want to present a good Harvest to our Father! He is our Master Farmer! Amen!
