My post was tongue in cheek but why aren’t the climate commies protesting the administrations tariffs on one of the key cogs to climate change? Surely $12k ev’s in the largest vehicle market in the world is a net positive on the environment. Or is all this just a front for government control….

Depends if the mafia bosses at the golf cart union are threatening to withhold votes for Biden until they get their palms greased.

So Biden is going to implement tariffs on Chinese ev’s because they are too cheap. I’m confused though because ev’s are essential to reverse climate change so don’t the ends justify the means? Shouldn’t they be flooding our market with eco friendly vehicles by any means necessary? Or…are they...

Buddy and I went fly fishing in Alaska a few years ago for pike and he caught a 49.5” fish and had one of those prints done

I actually haven’t even cut the wand away from the zip tie yet! I will on Wednesday when I do more spraying. I bought the boomless. I like it over having a boom to worrying about. If my tractor can make it the sprayer can make it.

It’s been great! I sprayed 80 gallons last weekend in my cabbed tractor and simply flipped the pto on and off at the end of the rows as some suggested and it couldn’t have been easier and more comfortable. I’ve had to play with the pressure some to get it where I want it but that’s expected. I...

Saw that. In no universe does that makes sense financially but I reckon some things don’t have to make sense to anyone but the person willing to part with their money.

Maybe. But regardless it could potentially be fragmented going forward. Im about to sell a farm that I bought in two tracts. It is surveyed out as two but they adjoin. I won’t break it up even though I could make more. I’d just as soon keep it before doing that. But I get everyone’s different...

Saw this today and thought about this thread. Somewhat in your neck of the woods. Makes me sick to see 400 acre tract Could split in smaller tracts for more money. 77 acres at $5400 an ac. 72 acres at $5400 an ac. 116 acres at $5400 an ac. 135 acres at 45400 an ac.

Me and my buddies have a joke about their listings…if you can’t find the word diversity in it I’ll kiss your ass! Generally you can’t even make it past the headline

I have a strong negative opinion of whitetail properties so I’m dang sure not defending them, but why do they come across as losers in this?

Thanks for the answer. So what is a predictor of consistent success in row cropping? Good ground and good weather all other things be damned?

Hey @Mortenson, do farmers have an idea of how other farmers in their area are doing financially. I know that’s a weird question with a million variables, but is it obvious when someone is doing very well as opposed to someone who is not? And if it’s known, what are the guys doing who are doing...

I would hope to save 20% or more if I was building my own home, which I have done. If you are even remotely in the business, you can do it. It’s not bad and most subs are going to give you grace if you need advice seeing as how it’s your own job. As long as you aren’t building in a random area...

Iowa topsoil loss

In my pea brain, I would love to get to a world where herbicide use was minimized, but the lose of topsoil and resulting erosion is a bigger issue. Most ground around me won’t grow a yield worth planting without so many inputs that is pretty much an artificial environment. That doesn’t seem...

I actually started that one and didn’t finish. I’m giving Grant a hard time. I think he does some great stuff. He’s also a bit of a salesman too though.

I have been under the impression that breaking ground encourages seed that has been laying dormant to germinate. I have definitely seen people say no till requires less weed management.

You and me both! I have dang sure looked but I guess not hard enough. I have plans for this to be the last year. I’ll plant the flatter parts for large food plots and let the rest turn to some from of crp type ground, though not enrolled in any program. It’s only 60 acres and it’s a bit of a...
