We are starting to plan out our fields for next season and the season after. How far in advance do you plan? We have several fields so crop rotation for us is pretty easy. We always grow corn, wheat and hay each year. The only thing that changes is which field.

I experiment more with my home garden that's just for the family than I do with the fields growing my cash crops. I know what will grow here and what will sell here, so I guess I'm kind of like you and it's just a matter of rotating the land.

I at least plan for a season in advance but leave room for changes should a new idea come up. Do you always stick to the two-year arrangement, or do you leave room for any changes that may come up?

I'm like Eden, I make more changes with my vegetable garden than I do with our fields. We do rotate what is planted, where. It's a three year rotation for us.
