Patrece..rondrell... farmers in the wabash valley had to adapt to what mother nature had in-store.

But for one farm, the change worked to their advantage.

October has been unusually dry.

For some farmers, this has been a major problem.

But brad burbrink of be-n-ag farms says, it allowed them to get a lot done.

"its been a great season from the beginning.

All the way back from the spring up until today.

I mean we've been blessed with pretty decent weather.

Yeah we could've changed a few things but all in all, things have been pretty good.

It's been an active harvest season.

But, burbrink, like many farmers, has been concerned the dry weather will lead to fires.

"luckily there was never really anything that got too much out of control, but it was always that fear factor of my goodness, its really windy, its really dry, its really dusty today and it was always that fear in the back of your mind that i hope nothing does catch on fire because if it does, its gonna go everywhere."

Recent rain also slowed them down.

But on the day came to visit, burbrink and his family took advantage of a day with no rain.

"the more we get done this evening, it'll just put us a couple days more closer to being finished.

We're expecting to be rained out the next couple days."

Be-n-ag family farm is looking forward to sunny weather to dry out the crops and get them back in the field.
