Does anyone think there is a correlation between the commodities, like corn for example, that receive subsidies and how well they do on the Chicago Mercantile?

I have heard quite a few things like this in the past, but I have to say I have never heard of this before. Ever.

One draws more current than the other, but for the life of me I can't remember which is which. For the most part they are interchangable.

They sold it to Fiat Agri in '93. It can be fun to look back at the history and see the older models.......see how far they did come on the 80 or so years they were in business.

Well, if your friend has never had this problem before with the same soil and has always used fertilizer with the same NPK ratio, I really don't know. It sounds like your best course of action would be to take 2 soil samples, one from the good patch and one from the bad, take them clearly marked...

There is a local businessman who operates a vineyard not far from where I live, and I noticed something last week. Something clicked. People "train" the vines in the offseason the way they train tomato plants. I don't know if the two crops are that different in terms of how hard it is to grow...

Today I learned. What I just read and the little I hear on T.V. about the subject, is all I know about bee's. That, I want to stay as far from them as possible. LOL

Wasn't he stating the obvious? In how many acres and what was he planting? That's what it sounds like to me as well. You never mentioned anything about the ph pevels in the soil. This is important when determining what type of fertilizer to spread for what type of crop. They all go hand in...

Wouldn't it be nice if governments butt out of personal farming operations so it would be easier for the common farmer to put up turbines? Because Of Bats? Why is it that when technologies make the most sense for the common man they are quick to be shut down by government?

Some people call it a niche market. Like breeding dogs or horses for show. I personally don't get the attraction, but enough people do to make it a "thing".

A pick-up truck is the must-have to end all must-haves. Technically, it is farm equipment that is designed to haul other equipment to the farm, town, or wherever equipment is needed. That's why you see so many with commercial plates. You can't do anything without a truck.

I think the reason they use the term "custom" is because the negotiations in the contract phrase customizes what the worker will do. There are no specific jobs per se, but rather the work being done

Does anyone know the ratio of cattle per acre for grazing purposes? I know there has to be one for land management purposes at least, but I forgot what it was.

There is still time, so has anyone found any good cyber deals today? Non-mechanical is usually what I go for if I'm ordering online and this year it's torx bits. Almost everyone is having something on sale today. '

I'm into buying land and I don't know of any auctions that would give the proceeds of a sale like that to charity. It would be nice if someone did though.

Ashamed to admit it, but it's fake in our house. I remember growing up there was about 5 years straight when we picked out a live one. We got pretty good and finding the healthiest ones.

I have been reading a lot of good ag news as of late. The potential for growth and to keep farming alive does this country boy good. The Native American population would be well served by looking into this, that's for sure.

It was bound to happen. John Deere is leading the way and quarterly business reports focusing on this part of the farming industry are not far behind. What are your thoughts on this?

You have to have a farm dog. One that doesn't mind sleeping in the barn and is good at keeping the wild animals away. And a barn cat for the mics.

I always associated the word arousal with something entirely different. :D But with this, if I don't have the funds I stop bidding. It's the thrill of the chase I guess.
