You're only embarrassing yourself.You know damn well that the first pass on a field planting task is you start by the road and work inward.
So that first trip down the field only has to be 4-6' into the ditch.
I was born and raised on a farm. I know how shit works.
Spew your bullshit someplace else. Or, I can continue to embarrass you.
Your call?
You are just an annoying troll. Your game is played.You're such a special snowflake.

Minnesota grows wild rice.I was joking about the rice and sugar cane. That won't grow in the frozen north.

Farmers are infallible, didn’t you know that? They work 6 weeks a year and collect government handouts, but are TOTALLY against anyone else getting free money.
Let’s see, who will I trust here. Me who’s lived in a farming community for 40 years or Trad from Trad Manor in Florida? 😀
If you think farm work only happens 6 weeks a year then you need to sit in a corner and have a timeout.

Trad, with all due respect, I think you may be leaving your comfort zone, at least with respect to Midwest farming.

Are farmers not doing "work" in the winter? Getting their combines serviced? Ordering seeds? Working on getting loans? Figuring out what to plant and where? Taking soil samples and ordering fertilizer?
Farming is not just planting and harvesting.
And then in between planting and harvesting you're spraying for bugs and disease, scouting for problems, hilling up or weeding? Dealing with bird and rodent pests?
A lot of the ones I know work a full time job as well as farming…

Reread my post. Although the things you mention are done, they are not all that time consuming. The internet is their friend too.Are farmers not doing "work" in the winter?

I am from a farming family (not immediate) and area. That is not common.A lot of the ones I know work a full time job as well as farming…
I had to chuckle because I know several that do have full time jobs!I am from a farming family (not immediate) and area. That is not common.
All power to those that do. I have never seen it in my area. The only place we visited my grandpa in the "offseason" was at the local bar playing Euchre with his farming friends.I had to chuckle because I know several that do have full time jobs!
Can't. It's fence row to fence row and tiled now so no on that.Guys, the solution is marshland filters before the runoff gets to the river. It's not hard.
Some of my best memories are hanging with my grandpa playing euchre, eating ring bologna with crackers and cheese and drinking room temperature cheap as beer.All power to those that do. I have never seen it in my area. The only place we visited my grandpa in the "offseason" was at the local bar playing Euchre with his farming friends.
Yeah, the ones I know are pretty uncommon.I am from a farming family (not immediate) and area. That is not common.
Are the farms in your area very large? The ones I know are traditional family farm size if that is a thing. Trying to keep things in the family.All power to those that do. I have never seen it in my area. The only place we visited my grandpa in the "offseason" was at the local bar playing Euchre with his farming friends.
Hell yes! That was my experience. Grain Belt and Falstaff on tap.Some of my best memories are hanging with my grandpa playing euchre, eating ring bologna with crackers and cheese and drinking room temperature cheap as beer.
Rhinelander, out of a bottle. I’d drive him to Iowa City where he’d have to have it special ordered. He’d buy 20 cases of bottles for $200!Hell yes! That was my experience. Grain Belt and Falstaff on tap.
Hell yeah. Not like we're making them pay for it or anything.I can't imagine why people would be upset with Iowa sending them free herbicides and pesticides.
That acreage is being used to produce corn to feed the pigs. If you’d like to see that land reclaimed as marshland you need to provide the farmer an incentive. Of course, the price of your ribs will increase because the feed costs will increase.So, you build a forty-feet wide wetland between your hog pens and the river.
It's NOT that hard.
If Iowa farmers were able "reclaim" 95 percent of the native wetlands, they can certainly "unclaim" them.
Phosphorus ain't replenishable, either.Besides sending National Guard troops to the border, sounds like you're sending your runoff to the Gulf Coast region.
I think you mean renewable. You can replenish the phosphorus in fields with an assortment of fertilizers. But you can't create or destroy phosphorus.Phosphorus ain't replenishable, either.
We have a limited supply of it we can mine.

Fertilizers and pesticides for your soy burger JR. Not all meat’s fault…
I don't really have soy dipshit.
