@clownworld Fuck you

Had a black BMW pull into a field yday we were working in which usually has me putting my guard up. A gentleman gets out and obviously new to 🇨🇦, politely asks me if he can ask a few questions. We talked about farming and all the things we do to grow a crop. Spent close to 30 mins talking and he was so excited to learn and very appreciative for me to take time out of my day to do so. Asks if he can come back through the year and watch the crop and the progress which I excitedly said yes. After he left I felt I had made more impact on that one personal conversation than all the years I have spent on social media. We forget that personal connections have a lasting impression vs the click and swipe world we live in. Just because our city/urban neighbors don’t understand what we do doesn’t mean they don’t care. Admittedly I have become jaded and that one personal conversation in a stressful spring…..It really made my day and changed my perspective.

@AdamJPfeffer Princess Auto. Put that one on the shelf for parts. I have 3

Hey #agtwitter 28% pump is seized, any tricks to freeing it up?

@MoeChauvin @grandoleoprey I always knew you had talent just didn't know it was musical LMAO

Great performance today to start my @grandoleoprey #CountryMusic career…

@farmboy8400 No compaction going on there LOL

I have some of those things

2 more payments and she's all mine!

@apasztor82 Andy, Where was that? Heaven?

Don’t tell my wife I was here!!!!!!!

I remember Morris. He was so excited by crops.

@MarketMinuteLLC @Demeter233 Half the crop at twice the price. Amazing how it works

Rain or no rain is going to be the driving factor that pushes us to $3 corn, or $8 corn. Forecasts are calling for the I-states to be very dry for at least the next 6-10 days. Some forecasts show rain in the middle of June, some don’t.. If we do not get rain, and it stays this dry come July. The sky is the limit for corn. Personally, I could see corn futures take off come Monday. We are heading more and more talk about this 89 year drought cycle and the year 1934. 1934 + 89 = 2023… Listen to today’s audio where we go over the possibilities of us seeing sub 160 or even 140 yield. The sub soil moisture situation is worse than it was in 2012 at this same time. If it continues this way, we could be in for some fireworks.. Listen Here 👉 dailymarketminute.com/previousnewsle…

@mattymetzger Jim, there is a reason I am only involved with solar

@BillMcd52ck On the Brigden Sideroad near Bentpath. if I know you you will go for a tour

Hay field on clay farm northwest Thamesville. New seeding. Wallet defines it well.

@BillMcd52ck Bill, I have 50 acres that looks different in the clay but still not pretty

@SflJim Yes Jim 1988 scared me and this feels similar. Wake up every morning not look at the weather because you knew you could do whatever you had planned.

The prediction for a dry month of June….starting to feel like 1988 weather. Yuck 🤮

@SflJim I hate to say I saw this coming. The 80's still haunt me and this looks too familiar

And it begins….

@FoodProfessor @KenSchaus @TorontoStar Are you an idiot??????? You obviously know nothing about food production.

@KenSchaus @TorontoStar Lower costs in dairy make sense. Dairy farming is incredibly asset-intensive in Canada. Cost of labour is also way down, farmers spend most of their time in a computer room now.

Milk prices were raised due to “exceptional cost increases” this spring, but the Canadian Dairy Commission’s own data shows that production costs actually decreased in 2021: @TorontoStar thestar.com/business/2022/…

More intelligence from someone that knows something.

It’s still muddy, but the horses are out of hay………

@SflJim I've been running the planter for 45 years and I still feel that way.

Yup..same. Every year.
