...and at the detriment of our own soil and water
So why should the US taxpayers subsidize China and other countries consumers to get commodities for less then the cost of production??

This field had a tremendous rye cover crop stand. Unfortunately it wasn’t able to be planted until June 2 due to a wet spring. It was clean as a whistle so I decided to try something new: Roll the rye, wait to spray. Roundup/liberty on July 7. Clean as can be. I’m impressed!

Breaking: New USDA Program ERRORR to offset the USDA error Each Report Reduces Operating Revenue Relief
NASS just corrected an error in the Sept. WASDE. USDA’s NASS says it found a processing error in September 2026 corn data affecting Kansas, Nebraska and U.S. yield and production forecasts. NASS corrected the September figures, but October’s WASDE forecast remains unchanged: 181.2 bu./acre, up 2.7 bu. from September, with production projected at more than 16 billion bushels. nass.usda.gov/Newsroom//Noti…

Laken Riley had a Garmin smartwatch on when she was attacked Her heart rate jumped to 170 bpm which told investigators that was when she was being attacked It lasted for 17 minutes then suddenly stopped - that's when the animal finally killed her So the next time you want to tell me about how unfair illegal immigrants are being treated I want you to set a timer for 17 minutes and watch it go by so you can understand how long that young woman fought for her life

Spending $1.5B to get $8B HFRP 🤔 That's a better ROI than @SpeakerPelosi gets on her trades
Farmers are spending $1.5 billion more on diesel this year, making every acre they plow, plant and harvest more expensive. Trump's war made farming cost more, and it’s hitting you in the produce aisle.

How it started. How it's going. As a senior last fall, my son had the chance to custom seed 20 acres of rye cover crop at the local FFA owned farm. They planted beans into the rye this spring and just harvested them this week. Only half got fungicide. 80 bpa field average.
