@AdamLasch1 From what I've observed over the last decade I think we're entering a big paradigm shift in ag. Seeing action being taken at a local level is encouraging, because that's how it needs to start if we're ever going to see meaningful change at the federal level.

It would appear that public sentiment has turned against large farms continuing to grow ever larger. Proponents site a long list of local negative effects on the community. Explain how this phenomenon doesn't spread. wisconsinexaminer.com/2026/03/04/wes…

@Sorg_Jay They've steadily gone downhill since they quit putting C9's in them.

Before anyone calls me retarded, keep in mind that at $0.50 diesel, every field gets rolled after a snow, every field gets an extra tillage pass, and ethanol plants close

Imagine going to a tiny bar in a tiny town and complaining that they don't have Blue Moon or Heineken.

@braunfarm It works well if you do it right. But I wouldn't bother unless you're getting better prices than we are

@TRFyeomanfarmer @jamesdecker2006 You're telling me that farming isn't just drinking coffee on my front porch and driving around with 4 square bales in the back of my '68 F-100?

To whom it may concern: stop applying Jena experiment results to crop production. -Farmers use managed, intelligent species selection; mixtures must beat the best monocultures, not the average of all monocultures as ecology measures it. -Biodiversity benefits in ecological research take 3–5+ years to emerge in perennial systems; this tells us nothing about annual crops or cover crops. -Ecological research finds that biodiversity correlates with benefits, not what causes them, and without knowing the mechanism, farmers have no basis for action.

George Armstrong Custer pictured in his West Point cadet uniform, 1859. George Armstrong Custer would have been around 20 in this photo, and he would meet his end 17 years later. Custer graduated last in his class—34th out of 34—at the United States Military Academy in June 1861, accumulating a staggering 726 demerits over four years, one of the worst conduct records in the academy’s history. Despite this shaky start, he rose to command cavalry during the American Civil War. In 1876, Custer’s Native American scouts warned him that the allied Lakota forces far outnumbered his troops. Confident in the strength of his well-armed men, he ignored the warnings—and was killed later that same day.

If you took an average of 92,000 Farmers in the U.S. and each chipped in roughly $135,000 dollars a one time payment we could build Ammonia plant in the U.S. That’s If you scale Blue Point’s cost by capacity, a Donaldsonville-sized ammonia complex 1.4 million metric tons per year that would pencil out around $12.4 billion as a rough modern replacement-cost estimate. 🤷‍♂️

@agronomistag This is an important point. Your greatest "bang for the buck" happens during the early growth stages of covers. You don't need a ton of biomass on top to benefit, or even a super high population. @RickBieber81

@cowbroker @TheGrainiac @KINGS1973 In my area people like to act like not much can be done about it. As if the hollowing out of our community is just an unfortunate symptom of progress. And kids these days. They're just lazy, ya know? We were never lazy like that.

What I see in small town America now is the realization by the older generations that our towns are dying….and the answer is spend government money to attract the kids, “spread the cost out” i.e. socialization….At least in NE, we spend too much money at local and state level “for the kids”….and they leave because the taxes are ridiculous just to live

The hate/resentment towards folks my age for working, sacrificing,foregoing current rewards by saving for retirement in order to have financial security as we age is wild and disappointing.

@drgurner @hogfarmer98 I was a welder for a while back in the day and I even own a welder currently. However, you won't find me over on welder Twitter arguing with actual welders about the current state of the welding industry.

I can count on one hand the farmers I know who are physically fit (I'm not one of them). I'm not calling anyone lazy, but it just isn't an ass busting job like it used to be.

@DMRegister Farmers are outdoors, active and motivated. Too many Iowans are lazy, fat and drink alcohol all the time.

@sanegrain One of my West river friends told me that the difference between a cowboy and a politician is that the cowboy has bullshit on the outside of his boots.
