My Dad raised about 40 crops and this is some of his last. I've never had a present make me cry but this one did.

Every young wrestler should hear this. Olympic champion Jordan Burroughs shares what he calls the “Arcade Perspective.”

@RuskampSteve @koinzangreg @AndEb56476820 Maybe if they wanted to. They were more worried about banning alcohol sales in whiteclay... so now we get to deal with them driving south to rushville and buying it here and driving under the influence both directions.

@TiredFarmer603 @sovernTranch Yeah they'll eat it but it's dormant grass with reduced feed value not counting the extra energy they have to use to get to the grass under the snow and keep warm. The humane thing to do is give them some hay and keep condition on them. But you do you

@sovernTranch @TiredFarmer603 In my opinion it's better to feed in snow and cold if for nothing else than it's the humane thing to do. How would you like to dig through a foot of snow to get your next meal?

@sovernTranch @TiredFarmer603 To be fair thats like 4 to 5 inches of snow, we still graze cornstalks without hay with that little snow. But when thers a foot or two and you have to clear a path so they can walk to the hay you put out it's kinda hard for them to graze in that.

@5thWave_tcronin We have a decent bid compared to other places but it's still tough to make work. But I've had pretty good weather a few years and had 100 plus dryland.

@heitingfarms @Gregory27928559 Would we talk about the improved health metrics of the population if they were on lower carbs? Would we talk about a lower average age of farmers? Maybe eat some shrimp at our favorite restaurant as the gulf cleans up with a trip in our EV car?

Did the Super Bowl get in on the ongoing ethanol debate? Or is it me? Sugar cane produces about 8 units of energy for every unit of energy for production. Corn about 1.3 units of energy for every unit of energy for production. #BadBunny #SuperBowlLX #agtwitter

@MichaelGiberso3 @jantenbensel Not sure if it's the same everywhere but here you can choose gas without e-10 but it's about $.50/gallon higher. So im attracted to value. Personally I think ethanol would be stronger if they would have let the value do the selling and not a mandate.

@jantenbensel “90% petroleum mandate,” are you high? No one has to mandate petroleum use, consumers are attracted by value. Though some consumers choose electric cars using no petroleum as fuel (no mandate there). Poor products need mandates to survive in a market.

The handful of refining companies trying to kill the year-round E15 bill make more money than all of our nation’s farmers and ranchers combined! Yet, they say they need RFS “hardship exemptions” to avoid blending ethanol and biodiesel? Give me a break!

@GrainStats @Dirt_128 The lawnmower thing is annoying. We use e-10 in everything including mowers, atv, and 6 or 7 small honda motors and I've never had any problems with gas.

@Dirt_128 it's under appreciated in that sense and cleaner burning all the while understood not everyone likes it - that's fine, give them the option then for those use cases (e.g. lawn care equipment.). but at 40 cent spread, we know what they are filling up with

Gas with 10% ethanol is 40 cents cheaper than the same octane without ethanol as we speak in my area. Thank a farmer
