This is happening al over the northeast

Land so wet sliding into the carrot river all over

Wow...unbelievable! Mother Nature makes the rules. Is it happening in pature land too or is the bank unstable because of grain farming?

At first sight it looked like a burned area....probably too wet for much to burn there.

No just 45 inches of rain and been grain farmed for about 100 years

Slow motion mudslide, nothing worse than TOO MUCH WATER, every hurricane along the east coasts, see Quill Lakes....8000 acres flooded...

Are they still getting bigger ?

Good luck harvesting the canola in the bottom there. Wonder if that is an insurable cause of loss? We have a disaster here as well but not quite as bad as that. After rain on Sunday it has to dry like crazy tomorrow or else we are not going to get the rest of the harvest. Some fields in the swath for the last 40 days are too moldy to bother with now.

Agree AJL , that rain yesterday and heavy fog this morning was very bad timing amongst this "Indian summer "

thanks larry ! this one started 4 years ago and when it first went , it went straight down , dropped about 20 feet about 150 ft wide and 500 yards long . none of the trees tipped over and are still alive today , just 20 feet deeper . all the crop was still growing in the bottom . cut tree roots right off on the whole 500 yards . trees were not even leaning . all the ones since have been regular mud slides . hard to believe a whole area that big could drop 20 feet !

Hmm. I think last Time soil was sinking like that was when the Mexicans were tunnelling under the Tijuana border. Might want to look into that...

Im sure that only happens only every few hundered years. Wonder what will happen if we keep getting more and more rain. Kind of a scary thought.

Breadwinner, does your farm drain in to Quill? Heard WSA talking to farmers about drainage in Wadena.
