Seasonal Frustration


Every year you can count on seeing some of this in farm country. After the harvesting is done farmers start pushing out fence rows and timber edges to increase their acreage or to rearrange their fields. This is one big reason that I am always pushing for landowners to plant trees on land that is idle. Illinois is actually gaining forest land, but it takes a lot of effort to stay ahead of clearing for agriculture and other uses.
