Legit photo. We were trying to capture some drone footage of the combines. However, apparently we weren’t the only ones keeping an eye on harvest. 🦅🌾

Don checking out a sample plant from our CDC 7208 CL red lentil field. With all the rain we have had this year, the field is very lush and these lentils are pretty bushy and tall. So far still standing very well in the field. This height should help with combining and we are excited to see the yields to come.
