Day 33

6/12/2015

It poured last night.  We ended up with a total of 2.8" of rain for the storm, and its been overcast & rainy all day.  But we were lucky, some of the areas around us at 4 to 5" of rain.   The traders like to think that "Rain makes Grain", but I've also seen plenty of times when too much rain as a bad as not enough rain.    It's plenty wet in the field today, so I haven't been up to measure.   There will not be any fieldwork in this neighborhood for a couple of days.

    Hi!  My name is Sharon Greif.  I grew up with corn in rural Illinois where my dad raised seed corn for an old company called Hulting Hybrids.  I detasseled corn in high school & have NO desire to ever do that again! 

    I graduated from Iowa State University where I studied marketing. After three  years of living in the "Big City", I decided to follow my love of agriculture and took a job as a district sales manager for a seed corn company.    I was assigned a territory in Iowa, where I met &  married a corn and soybean farmer from Prairieburg Iowa.   Thirty-two years later, I'm still in Iowa, though I love Illinois also.

    I served on the Iowa Corn Grower board in the 90's as a district director.  I've also served on the Iowa Women in Ag committee and I currently serve on the board of the Iowa Arabian Horse Association.   

    I love Iowa State football & basketball, Arabian horses, Boxer dogs, and I am passionate about agriculture & it's story.
