Yeah!!!!! So glad they are back so you have some help and some company!!!! Great that they had such a good time & got to ride a horse. Cool

!!

Why do they detassle corn??? We raise a LOT of corn around here. I grew up on a farm with corn and we never detassled it. Seems like a strange and unnessary thing to do.

We'd walk the milo fields to grub out Johnson grass or sunflowers. We'd chop cotton, but never detassle corn.

Guess it's a regional thing.
