Ethanol exports expand

Growing markets for corn

USGC promotes foreign markets

Trade, renewable fuel priorities for NCGA president

By Tom C. Doran

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. — As the U.S. government’s ethanol policies continue to create industry hurdles with expanded small refinery wavers, the U.S. Grains Council sees hope for industry growth via potential export expansion. Kristy Moore, USGC technical and regulatory consultant, said the organization foresees Mexico as a potential Moore major importer of U.S.produced ethanol in the future after that country initiated energy policy reforms about four years ago. “For 80 years there was only one oil company in Mexico, Pemex. It was the only oil company allowed in the country, and in 2015 the Mexico government realized that they needed competition to bring lower prices, better supplies and better options to their consumers,” Moore told AgriNews at the recent Illinois Corn Growers Association annual meeting. “So, the U.S. Grains Council has been working in Mexico for the last four years helping that government realize the benefits of cleaner, better, ag-based renewable fuels because all they’ve used are fossil-based fuels for the last 80 years. It’s about a 12 billion gallon gasoline market which is about 1.2 billion gallons of ethanol that could be flowing straight into our southern border trade partner.” China is another potentially large U.S. ethanol customer, but the current trade war between that country and the United States, combined with China’s own policy problems have quelled that expansion for now. “The government of China mandated the use of E10, but they’ve failed to implement it and they’re running into our trade issues.

Pie’s the limit Young baker transforms love of cooking into business, FFA SAE By Jeannine Otto

STREATOR, Ill. — Sometimes, Alea Ogle sounds so much like someone twice her age that it’s hard to believe she’s a junior in high school. But then, the question of what her biggest challenge is and the teenager returns. “Some days I just want to sleep,” she said. It’s not surprising because her schedule would exhaust anybody. “I’m here from 4:45 to 2 p.m. Then I go to my class from 2 to 3 p.m. After that, I do my homework at home and any

other planning for the business,” Ogle said. “Here” is the bakery, Blue Eyed Rascal, on Streator’s Main Street, that Ogle runs with help from her family. The bakery and coffee shop opened in June. The store is owned by Ogle’s mom and dad. The store features baked goods by Alea – scones, pies, brioche, cinnamon rolls, cupcakes and more – as well as espresso, lattes and other coffee drinks. Business has been good and the holidays have been busy. “We’ve been surprised with the turnout. We did over 36 pies for Thanksgiving,” Ogle said. She’s been baking since she was small. “I always liked to help in the kitchen. I picked up the baking thing from my grandma, Carol Santorineos, and her sister, Gayle. I also got my cooking and baking skills from my mom, Jody

Santorineos-Ogle,” Ogle said. She became certified, via the Illinois Cottage Food Law, to make and sell baked items in her home kitchen. “I started selling at farmers markets when I was 12 and 13. I made scones and cinnamon rolls and cookies, and it started growing from there. It was just a hobby from there, and I was at farmers markets every Saturday,” she said. Ogle also filled custom orders. “By the age of 14, the biggest order I did was an 800-piece wedding dessert table,” she said. When her parents bought the building at 121 East Main Street in Streator, they weren’t sure what they wanted to do with it. “I suggested the idea of opening a bakery, but it was just a joke,” Ogle said.

Planting with precision New products debut at Peoria Farm Show By Tom C. Doran

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

PEORIA, Ill. — A new, twostage automated closing system with integrated sensing for planters was on display at the Greater Peoria Farm Show. Precision Planting’s FurrowForce had a limited launch this year. Its first stage features notched wheels that work to close the furrow from the bottom up, eliminating air pockets. The second stage stitch wheels carry weight on them to firm the soil over the seed to retain moisture. A load cell measures weight on the stitch wheels. “So, as you think about closing, you really want to do two things. One is get soil on top of the seed and the second is firm that soil, so it retains moisture. And a lot of closing systems do

After serving in many other leadership roles, what are you looking forward to most as president of the NCGA? “I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to facilitate the growth amongst our board as NCGA and have the opportunity to lead the organization that I’ve spent so much time in. Certainly, it is such a privilege to be able to step into this role. By doing that, I just hope to represent fellow neighbors and farmers well across the country. We’ve had a lot of opportunities to do that in the past, but this is certainly a challenge for me and a challenge for anybody else that would be in this position. See ROSS, Page A4

Corn growers have ‘a very bright future’ Glass is half full for board chairman By James Henry

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

ST. LOUIS — For Lynn Chrisp, past president and now chairman of the Corn Board of the National Corn Growers Association, the glass is half full. Using pivot irrigation on a farm established in 1880 under the Homestead Act, Chrisp raises several different types of corn along with soybeans in Hastings, Nebraska. Farmers Chrisp have struggled with low prices, trade wars and difficult weather, but there still have been successes to celebrate, Chrisp said.

Similar to the DeltaForce product for each row unit downforce, FurrowForce automatically senses and adjusts the force applied to maintain consistent firming force for the closing system.”

Farmers are facing a difficult time now, but what do you see on the horizon? “As tough as this year has been with the historically wet spring and just unbelievable numbers of acres that were prevented from being planted, which really created an economic stress for our members, it’s probably worth noting over the last year some of the good things that have happened.

ST. LOUIS — Stepping up to serve as president of the Corn Board of the National Corn Growers Association, Kevin Ross plans to share his and other farmers’ stories to grow understanding of agriculture and, in turn, markets for corn. Ross raises corn using no-till methods, as well as soybeans Ross and alfalfa, and runs a 140-head cow/calf operation with his wife, Sara, near Minden, Iowa. They hope to pass on the farm someday to their four young sons, Hudson, Axten, Carver and Hollis.

It might have been, but deep down she could see a dream coming true. “I’ve been doing this for so long that has always been my dream,” she said. The family fixed up the building and installed a commercial kitchen. The shop opened in June 2019. Ogle said one benefit she gets is being part of the Streator downtown business community. “I feel like we play an important part in helping Streator. I am happy to be a part of all of these businesses downtown. It’s so much fun to walk into the other businesses and have a conversation with them. They treat me like an adult, and we’re all in this together,” she said. Ogle said is homeschooled and will graduate in May 2020, a year early. She attends agriculture classes at Streator High School and is a member of the Streator FFA Food Science and Technology CDE team. The team placed 11th out of 37 teams at the recent National FFA Convention. The bakery is her Supervised Agricultural Experience, so she must keep accounts and keep track of income and expenses. “I hope to get my state degree in June at convention, it’s pretty exciting,” Ogle said. She plans to attend Joliet Junior College for two years and then enroll in the University of Illinois online program to finish her degree in business administration. Despite the long hours and the occasional pastry that won’t rise, Ogle said she has enjoyed her baking journey so far. “It’s nice to do your own thing and work for yourself. It’s really rewarding,” she said.

Four questions for Alea Ogle

1. The name of your bakery is Blue Eyed Rascal. How did that come about? “I have been doing Irish dancing for about nine years. ‘Blue Eyed Rascal’ is actually the name of one of the dances we do. I was trying to figure out a name for the business. I was in dance class one day and I heard that and I have blue eyes, so it went from there.” 2. Do you watch baking or cooking shows? “You would think I would get tired of it, but last night when I went home, I watched the ‘Holiday Baking Championship’ on Food Network. I’ve seen every episode. I also like watching the ‘Great British Bake Off.’ I love that one. It’s really cool stuff that they make that you don’t often see around here. I’ve grown up watching Food Network.” 3. What’s your biggest baking challenge? “Breads have been the hardest thing to learn. I do cinnamon rolls very well, but I’m still getting the hang of breads.” 4. What’s your favorite thing to bake? “I like to make macaroons best because you can decorate them and customize them in every way. It took me a long time to get the hang of it. They are one of the hardest things to learn to bake.”

FARMERS FOR FREE TRADE

AG ECONOMY BAROMETER

2,200 sign letter supporting USMCA Big jump in farmer optimism By Martha Blum

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

WASHINGTON — A letter signed by more than 2,200 farmers calling for immediate passage of the United States-MexicoCanada Agreement has been sent to congressional leaders. “We have to make sure the leadership in Washington hears and knows how critical and what it means to the livelihood of not just farmers, but the small towns they live in and the businesses they support,” said Blanche Lincoln, a former senator

from Arkansas who also served as the Senate Agriculture Committee chairwoman. The signatures on the letter from farmers in 47 states were gathered by the Farmers for Free Trade group that was established in 2017. “The U.S. food and agLincoln riculture industries export $20.5 billion in goods to Canada and $18.6 billion into

Mexico,” Lincoln said. “I see it in Arkansas and all across the country on our tour with Farmers for Free Trade. Whether they’re dairy farmers, almond, cotton or rice farmers, they understand the importance to our economy that agriculture produces.” The export dollars, Lincoln said, “provide economic security not only to farmers, but also to workers in every step of the supply chain from grain elevator operators to rail and ship workers to rural small businesses.” Here’s what others had to say about USMCA:

BRIAN KUEHL: CO-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF FARMERS FOR FREE TRADE “Our mission is to build support for “We drove an RV 20,000 miles through 30 trade agreements that benefit U.S. agriculstates ending up on the ture,” said Brian Kuehl, co-executive direcNational Mall,” Kuehl tor of Farmers for Free Trade. said. “We held over 100 “Ninety-five-plus percent of mouths are events to talk about outside the U.S., so if we’re not exporting trade with Mexico and food, we don’t have a farm economy in the Canada.” U.S.,” Kuehl stressed. “Farmers are hurting In April, the Farmers for Free Trade and trade disruptions launched a motorcade for trade and travhave decimated the eled around the United States to build supfarm economy because farmers are losing port for the USMCA.

their farms and farmer suicides have been increasing,” Kuehl said. “And even those that aren’t losing their farms aren’t able to buy new tractors or combines and that ripples through rural America.” During the tour, Kuehl said, farmers stated the importance of stabilizing trade with Mexico and Canada. “Farmers need this win now and it’s not something that can wait until 2020 or 2021 because this is about multi-generational farmers losing their land,” he said.

MICHELLE ERICKSON-JONES: WHEAT AND BARLEY FARMER Michelle Erickson-Jones is a fourth-generation farmer near Broadview, Montana, who grows wheat and barley. “For the U.S. barley industry, about 80% of the barley raised and malted in the U.S. is sent to Mexico to brew it into beer, and then it is sent north,” she said. “It is one of the greatest success stories we have of NAFTA.” The trade agreement, Erickson-Jones said, is not only important for her farm, but also for the malt houses in her state,

as well as the supply chains that allow the grain to come back north in the form of beer. “Prior to NAFTA, Mexico imported hardly any U.S. wheat, and now they are our No. 1 customer,” the farmer said. “These are customers we have spent years developing through the

benefits of NAFTA and also through our own checkoff dollars by maintaining relationships with buyers through bringing in trade teams.” Not having a trade agreement like NAFTA or improving it with USMCA, Erickson-Jones said, puts a lot of those relationships at risk. “Traders and importers don’t like uncertainty,” she stressed. “It is essential USMCA is passed to give improvements to non-tariff barriers for wheat.”

TOM VILSACK: PRESIDENT AND CEO, U.S. DAIRY EXPORT COUNCIL “As I travel around the country talking to dairy farmers, one thing I know is they’re not really interested in federal payments; they’re interested in markets,” said Tom Vilsack, president and CEO of the U.S. Dairy Export Council. “USMCA does two important things for American agriculture, it guarantees open access to two critical markets,” said Vilsack, who served as U.S. secretary of agriculture from 2009 to 2017. “And for dairy farmers, it provides access to a market that’s been closed for far too long in terms of the ability to sell product into Canada and end a discriminatory pricing system the Canadians have established.” In addition, Vilsack said, the trade agree-

ment will protect the U.S. dairy industry from the European Union’s efforts to try to monopolize certain cheese names so they don’t have to compete in the Mexican market. “We know American processors are producing quality cheese, and this is a market that is going to be dominated by the U.S. unless the EU creates an unfair advantage with geographical indications,” Vilsack said. “I’m hopeful the final negotiations will take place quickly and congressional leaders make the decision to move this important trade

agreement as quickly as possible,” he said. “The dairy industry has calculated this as an incredibly important opportunity to see nearly $300 million of additional sales of dairy products which will impact the bottom line of dairy producers,” he said. “It is important to get this done now and send a message to farmers who have been struggling for far too long.” For more information about Farmers for Free Trade, go to www.farmersforfreetrade.com.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Farmer optimism about the ag economy jumped in November, according to the Purdue University Ag Economy Barometer. “Rising for a second month in a row, the barometer improved to a reading of 153 in November, up 17 points from October and matching the previous 2019 high set in July,” said Jim Mintert, director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture, in a newsletter. “This (increase) was mainly driven by the Index of Current Conditions, which was up from 115 points in October to 153 points in November,” said Kylie O’Conner, graduate research assistant at the Center for Commercial Agriculture. “Farmers are also more optimistic about large farm investments, as the Farm Capital Investment Index was up to 71 points in November, up from a score of 59 points in October.” Many farmers finished harvest in November and experienced better-than-expected yields, boosting optimism. Farmers also were more optimistic that trade disputes might be settled soon. “We’ve been asking farmers if they think it’s likely or unlikely that the soybean trade dispute with China will be settled soon, and 57% of respondents in November said that a trade resolution was likely to come soon,” O’Conner said. “It is the most positive response we’ve had since we’ve began posing this question in March 2019.” “Eighty percent of farmers said that a trade resolution with China would be beneficial to U.S. agriculture.” Read the full report at purdue.ag/agbarometer.

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. — A panel of commodity organization leaders and farmers talked about trade and policy making at this year’s Ag Policy Forum. It’s crucial for farmers to build relationships with lawmakers, said Brooke Appleton, vice president of public policy at National Corn Growers Association. “It’s not just going to Washington and meeting with them in their office,” Appleton said. “It’s seeing them at the coffee shop or popping in on meetings to have conversations with them one on one. It’s that constant reminder of the issues.” Christy Seyfert, executive director of government affairs at American Soybean Association, agreed that lawmakers need to hear from growers. “There are so many issues right now: USMCA, China, biofuels — you name it,” she said. “There are a lot of issues on the front burner right now that I “I think what complicates things is, as we move into 2020, it’s a presidential election year. … The shift, the focus, will really turn. Unfortunately, the focus isn’t on USMCA. I think it’s so important for folks to continue to apply pressure to your members of Congress and let them know how important it is. Mexico is our No. 1 market for corn. Canada is our No. 2 market for ethanol. These are important trade partners. We need to get it off the books so we can move on, so we can show other countries that we can make a deal.” Brooke Appleton, vice president of public policy NATIONAL CORN GROWERS ASSOCIATION

They want to hear what folks back home really care about.

There’s also power in social media and sharing your story. It’s another tool.” Here are a few top takeaways from the discussion:

“We’ve had growers stop harvest so they could come to D.C. and talk about the urgency of passing the USMCA and showing U.S. reliability to trading partners. I don’t really think this is doomed, but I think the legislative days are running out very quickly. We certainly want to see this done sooner rather than later. We’re cautiously optimistic.” Christy Seyfert, executive director of government affairs

“It’s great to represent Indiana on the National Corn Growers Association board. It’s interesting when we come together as a board at the national level. Not every state has representation on the board, but they do have representation in the policy-making process. Every state has a certain amount of delegates that come together at the corn congress to bring resolutions forward that they want to vote on. It’s truly a grassroots organization.” Dennis Maple, farmer from Greentown, Indiana, and board member

“It’s always important to be involved and have a relationship with legislators, whether it’s local, state or federal. It’s one thing for them to have your number. But when you have their number, you know that’s a positive relationship that goes both ways. They really want to know how issues impact you and your family. When you share that with them, that’s very impactful.” Kendell Culp, farmer from Rensselaer, Indiana, and board member AMERICAN SOYBEAN ASSOCIATION

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. — Kevin Ross, president of National Corn Growers Association, said that 2019 has been a roller-coaster year for the ag industry. “Over the last few months at NCGA, it’s been about tariffs, waivers and weather,” he said at the Ag Policy Forum. “We’ve had a lot of flooding issues this year. It is a ma zi ng though, with our crops and technologies, Ross the speed at which we can get things done when we have the opportunity to do that. The resiliency of the American farmer was again displayed this year with these issues.” Looking to 2020, Ross said farmers should “demand more.” “We need to demand more to get better results,” Ross said. “We need to demand more for ourselves. It’s a responsibility that we all have. It’s about making our voices heard and getting things done.” The top goals for NCGA are: n Pass USMCA. n Reallocate the waived gallons of ethanol. n Finalize a good deal with China. n Introduce legislation reestablishing a high-octane, low-carbon standard. The USMCA has been sitting far too long, Ross said. Trade disputes with China are also affecting farms, but he’s not optimistic about seeing change in the near future. “I can tell you that finalizing a good deal with China will be a difficult task,” he said. “I’m a very skeptical person when it comes to this issue right now. I think we’re further away than you might see in the media. But it’s an important deal, there’s no question about that.” Ross also said that it’s crucial for the United States to focus on improving infrastructure. “We’ve got to improve infrastructure. We’ve got to get these internal markets built.”

“They really could be a great customer of U.S. ethanol and we have run into significant policy detriments and juggernauts where we can’t push through,” said Moore, who is also principal scientist with KMoore Consulting. “China has a lot of problems with their fuel industry. They have pollution problems, they have supply problems, they have a growing economy and they could use U.S. ethanol to clean up their pollution, but they’re using cheap, dirty alternatives in their fuel market just because they don’t have the volume and octane that they need. “U.S. ethanol could play a significant role in China, but because of policy we’re excluded from that market.”

“But we’ll take these challenges head on and move forward.”

RECORD EXPANSION USGC added ethanol in 2014 to its charter to build international markets for agriculture-based products and has a goal to export 4 billion gallons of ethanol by 2022. Last year, U.S. exports reached a record of nearly 1.62 billion gallons, topping the previous record of nearly 1.4 billion gallons set in the 20162017 marketing year. Canada and Brazil are the top two buyers of U.S.produced ethanol. Other top customers are India and the European Union. “We’ve been working diligently through the U.S. Grains Council to build ethanol markets abroad. We’re still in our infancy (with the ethanol piece),” Moore noted. “Entering the petroleum market can be different, especially with renewable fuels, and as much as we are accustomed to renewable fuels in the United States, as is Brazil – we’re the No. 1 user of renewable fuels and Brazil is No. 2 – really the global market and experience with ethanol is very minimal. So, we are on a huge education campaign to get countries to look at the opportunities that ethanol can bring to them. “We aren’t ever going to give up on our domestic use. We think that ethanol brings so many benefits to the United States, but bringing those same benefits to 64, 65 countries around the world is our target and we think that the market and opportunities for renewable fuels is unlimited.” Moore was asked if there are any challenges maintaining the quality of ethanol during international shipments. “We know how to ship ethanol without quality incident at very competitive prices. One thing we’re also looking at is what if we want to ship a finished blend of gasoline and ethanol,” she said. In fact, the United States has 30 years of experience exporting ethanol. “In the 1990s, we had a huge global market and then we built our domestic E10 market. So, we kind of pulled back from our global presence and really focused on our domestic market development,” Moore said. “Now fast-forward to 2019 and we’re again looking at the global opportunities. We know how to do it and there are no barriers to shipping that product. We just need to put that education out into the marketplace so that everyone can get to it.” Tom C. Doran

Judge halts enforcement of ag-gag law DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A federal court judge says the state of Iowa cannot enforce its latest attempt to stifle undercover investigations of livestock farms and denied the state’s efforts to dismiss a lawsuit challenging this year’s so-called ag-gag law. The Republican-led legislature passed the state’s second such law in March, two months after a federal judge struck down the previous 2012 law, saying it violated constitutional free-speech rights. The new law created a trespass charge for undercover investigators. Lawmakers claimed they crafted it more narrowly to avoid free speech claims. However, U.S. District Judge James Gritzner said in his ruling filed Dec. 2 that the animal rights and civil rights groups filing the lawsuit had raised enough legal issues to allow the case to proceed. Gritzner also prohibited the state from enforcing the law while the lawsuit moves forward.

NCGA’s policies come from the grassroots, but you have the opportunity as president to leave your own imprint. What will be your priorities for the coming year? “We’ve got a lot of different things going on at NCGA right now, as there always is. That’s nothing new for the folks there and for priorities that growers have for our organization. Right now, we’re still monitoring the small refinery exemptions situation and trying to make sure that the integrity of the Renewable Fuel Standard continues to be upheld. That is paramount in our market structure for corn. So, that’s definitely priority No. 1, to move that forward. “The second thing that we’ve really got to get knocked off our list really quickly is United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, getting that thing passed. There is a lot of momentum behind it, but there is also a lot of people that haven’t taken a vote on trade ever that are in Congress right now, so we’ve got a little education to do. “Hopefully, we’re going to be working on moving some future ethanol policy forward. There’s a lot of things that we can to do help augment the future of our main market there, but that always comes with challenges. So, we’re going to work hard on that and see what we can do

CHRISP FROM PAGE ONE

“The first week of my presidency in October 2018, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement was announced as being completed in principle and that was a very welcome announcement. But as almost everyone knows, almost a year has gone by and we are waiting for the opportunity to get USMCA ratified in Congress. We need to get that across the finish line so that we have certainty in our trading relationships with our important trade partners in Mexico and Canada, our neighbors that supply extremely important markets that have a day-to-day impact on the price and economic condition for the farm. “Within a couple weeks of that announcement, President Donald Trump announced that he was going to instruct the Environmental Protection Agency to start a rule to allow year-round sale of E15 and that was a situation that we and our other industry partners in the ethanol industry have been working on for some time and were really pleased to hear that was going to be undertaken, as well. “We were disappointed with the results of the first round of the Market Facilitation Program payment, but that improved in April with the second round after the talks with China had collapsed and the administration said that they were going to support the farmers in regard to loss of trade opportunities. I think that our membership is much appreciative of that. “In December, we had the signing of the farm bill that happened in a very expedited time frame in that it was passed and signed in the same year that it was brought up for consideration in Congress, which has rarely happened over the last couple of decades. Being president in a year of the farm bill signing was an excellent experience and I had the opportunity to be on stage with President Trump and his team and other representatives of the agricultural community, as well, for the signing. That was a real appreciated opportunity to be able to represent NCGA and our membership in that regard. “There’s been a lot of good things that have happened.

That rule that I talked about in my first couple weeks of my presidency then for year-round E15 was completed by EPA and announced just right at the first of June, so it was in place for this summer’s driving session.” So, you can’t control the weather above, but NCGA is impacting what happens on the ground below? “NCGA focuses every day on our jobs about creating demand because this country is best in its ability to produce successful crops when the weather cooperates and we need to have those markets in order to support our economy so that farmers can get to a point where they are experiencing better bottom lines than what we currently are right now. “It’s an exciting situation, and I would encourage anyone that has an inkling of getting involved in an association that really has an opportunity and is positioned well to make a difference to look at spending some time with the corn growers association. I’ve had an excellent opportunity in doing so over the last couple of decades and have enjoyed the opportunity to review some of those successes that we have today and think that NCGA and corn farming has a very bright future because of all the work that NCGA is doing.” What’s your advice to other farmers to be a part of that change? “On a fundamental basis it really does not take much time to be involved and be in the count to make a difference. I will say that the opportunity these days with electronic communication and the good job that our communications department does in making that justment, but putting a motor on the depth adjustment of the row. The reason we’re taking it another lap for testing is to get the agronomics right,” Baker said. “It’s easy to just put a motor on and say, ‘hey, it’s a thing,’ but as we look at the SmartFirmer in-furrow sensor that measures soil moisture, and combine that with SmartDepth that can automatically change the planting depth, we want to make sure we get that right because planting depth is something that is critical. It’s critical to have seeds in moisture and taking control of the planter, we have to make sure that’s right.” SmartDepth, FurrowForce and

easy to participate in hearing our voices on any particular issue as we identify the need to communicate with the White House or with the U.S. Department of Agriculture or with EPA on various regulatory issues that are in front of us that affects our farming operations day to day, it’s an extremely easy thing to do. It just takes a couple minutes. “The last effort generated thousands of responses both into the White House and the EPA on the issue that we were working. So, it does not take much to be involved in such a way that you can be counted and can be heard. Consider that. “And if you also have an inkling at improving some of your leadership skills, NCGA is really good at providing some leadership development programs to the point where you can get comfortable in working from a leadership position, as well. “I can say that a couple decades ago when I was a much younger farmer that I never dreamed I would be in a situation where I would have devoted as much time as I have to the association, but it has been well worth it and I’ve been glad to step up and supply some of that leadership in conjunction with the rest of the board and our action teams, as well. There’s plenty of opportunities to get involved.” What will you remember from your term this past year as president? “I was asked going into my presidential year about a couple of project priorities that I had on my mind that I would like to see some significant progress made.

The event is free and advance registration is available at www.precisionplanting.com.

were working through a NCGA task force on the ethanol question as far as future fuels policy. We made great strides in that area and hopefully shortly we’ll have a bill introduced in Congress to try to establish an octane standard for the future. “The other priority was life cycle analysis because conversations over the last number of years regarding corn farming contribution to greenhouse gas and the environmental discussion were important for us and we needed that information that established it as a benchmark from a scientific standpoint. We should be in a situation where we’re pretty close on that.” What accomplishments stand out during your many years of service to corn growers? “I’ll go back into the mid-2005, 2006 time frame, when we were working on a farm bill and a new concept and through what is now referred to as the Risk Management Action Team. At that time that team started a project that we developed that was referred to as Average Crop Revenue Election. ACRE was a fairly revolutionary idea for Title 1 in the farm bill and set the stage for revenue programs that were in place at that point in time then and subsequently was altered a little bit then and became ARCcounty. Those two programs provided a lot of needed support at times when it was real critical for our membership and was very targeted in its delivery, which was part of the success of the program. “Beyond that, I had the opportunity to work with enterprise crop insurance then and equalization of premium support as it was compared to optional units at the time. As all of our membership knows, crop insurance is the cornerstone for our safety net as we continue our farming operations year over year now. Because of those changes, enterprise has grown to be the Risk Management Agency’s No. 1 choice for crop insurance and optional units have declined over the years because of it. “We also got into a project of GPS harvest data reporting, which is certification of yields and proof of loss capability, utilizing modern technology on our combines and reporting to Risk Management Agency, as well, for certifications. That has been a real positive for our membership, as well.” James Henry and whole team of Precision Planting employees. We didn’t get planted there until June and one of the challenges there was it really went from super wet to dry and cloddy,” Baker said. “One of the things that’s not necessarily new but very simple is we’re seeing extremely high returns from running row cleaners just to sweep some of those clods out of the way versus where we didn’t run row cleaners correctly and they effected depth and got seeds in the dry soil.” Tom C.

FEDERAL RESERVE SURVEY

Late harvest, low prices common themes in districts By Tom C. Doran

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

CHICAGO — Harvest delays were repor ted across all of the Corn Belt Federal Reserve districts in the most recent Beige Book summaries. The Federal Reserve System’s survey of current economic conditions and anecdotal infor mation published in the Beige Book was conducted on or before Nov. 18. This information enables comparison of economic conditions in different regions of the nation, which can be helpful for assessing the outlook for the national economy. Here are survey agriculture-related comments from the Federal Reserve districts across the Corn Belt. CHICAGO Early frost and snow further delayed this year’s harvest and diminished yields. Overall, contacts expected the district’s corn and soybean harvests would be much smaller than a year ago. In addition, contacts expressed concern about crop quality, especially with short propane supplies in some places, which limited the amount of crop drying farmers could do. Corn and soybean prices were down from the previous reporting period, but up from a year earlier. Nevertheless, lower expected yields meant crop revenues would be down from a year ago. Milk, egg, hog and cattle prices moved up during the reporting period. Contacts noted that demand for pork from China had grown despite U.S. tariffs because African swine fever had decimated China’s hog herd. More generally, contacts reported a pickup in overall agricultural exports, with some noting that news on trade negotiations sounded promising for future exports. Farm incomes generally are expected to be down from last year, although government payments from the Market Facilitation Program will provide some support. The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago’s district includes the northern two-thirds of Illinois and Indiana and all of Iowa, Wisconsin and Michigan. ST. LOUIS District agriculture conditions have remained un-

New cover crop guide available SPR INGF IELD, Il l. — “Considering Cover Crops?” is a newly-published guide for Illinois farmers that provides a comprehensive resource to the most recent research for effectively incorporating a cover crop ahead of corn, soybeans and wheat. The guide outlines comprehensive tactics for cover crop use as part of a nutrient management strategy. Research results from planting to termination of cover crops are included. With funding from the Illinois Nutrient Research and Education Council, researchers from the University of Illinois, Illinois State University and Purdue University are studying the various variables involved in a successful cover crop program. This research has been performed at an on-farm, field-scale level in several locations across Illinois and over multiple years. Researchers have planted cereal rye as a cover crop because it is easy to establish, hardy and easy to terminate, but emphasize that the same principles associated with rye can be used with wheat or winter barley as a cover crop. The 12-page guide is available for download from the Illinois NREC website at w w w.il l inoisnrec.org/cover-cropguide-2-0.

changed from the previous reporting period and well below those from a year ago. Corn and soybean yield forecasts increased from October, while cotton yield forecasts have declined modestly. All three crops and rice are projected to have lower yields than last year. Production forecasts for corn, cotton and soybeans have increased slightly since the previous report. Production levels for corn, rice and soybeans are expected to be significantly lower than in 2018, while that for cotton is expected to increase modestly. District contacts continued to express concerns over depressed agriculture commodity prices. Eighth Federal Reserve District of St. Louis includes the southern parts of Illinois and Indiana and eastern half of Missouri, as well as parts of Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky and Mississippi. MINNEAPOLIS Distr ict agr icultural conditions declined from an already weak position. Roughly three in five lenders responding to the Minneapolis Fed’s third-quarter survey of agricultural credit conditions reported that farm incomes decreased in the third quarter relative to a year earlier, with a similar proportion reporting decreased capital spending.

bankers pointed to an ongoing environment of low agricultural commodity prices and elevated costs as the primary factors contributing to further weakness. As profit opportunities remained limited, producer working capital deteriorated slightly, and a modest number of borrowers were expected to sell assets before the end of the

that we held through all the challenges that the weather brought us and look forward to something closer to normal. Oh, and of course, some improving markets would be nice, too. We must start 2020 with a sharp eye toward efficiency in our beef operations. There is no better way to do that than to graze more and feed less. Let cattle do what they love to do: Graze. However, they can only reward you if they have a great grazing meal every day. So, practice intense adaptive rotational grazing management and reap the benefits. OK, so now I can get down off my little soapbox and tell you what has been going on at River Oak. We are well into winter grazing of our stockpiled fescue and red clover. Twentyfour cows have worked through the west 25 acres and were moved this morning back across the river to a pasture right along the township roadway, where a passerby can see how long 10 acres of stockpile can last. The forecast looks favorable, snowless and frozen, which extends the forage, having avoided excessive pugging or snow cover. The other 55 acres of stockpile is now inhabited by 69 coming yearling heifers and three leader momma cows. We received the heifers out of Nebraska the Monday before Thanksgiving about 10 p.m. and pushed the process to get them grazing by trying to take them to the stockpile Thanksgiving morning. The only problem was that they did not want to cross the ankle-deep water over the bridge. So, we left them, thinking they might drink and then find their way to the winter grazing. No such luck! We were forced to go way down to the west end of the place and cut off the three leader momma cows. We pushed them across the river to mingle with the heifers and then called them back and just watched as they brought the whole group across with no problem. That is precisely why we give them the distinguished noble title of “leader cow.” The heifers have adapted quickly on the stockpile without a single problem and are an outstanding

group. The last several months have been extra busy as we prepared to open ourselves up to another of those important transitions we have to make in our lives. This one for us has been to prepare to lease a turnkey grazing operation to another cattleman or cattlewoman. By turnkey, I mean that everything that is needed to run the operation is in place here, except for the cattle owner and the cattle. That includes the 250 acres of pasture with water and fencing for 50 paddocks, the machinery, the working facilities, the sorting lots and loading and unloading facilities. A little extra for the operation is that I will be staying on to maintain the fences and other infrastructure. I also will be doing a lot of teaching about this remarkable practice of management intensive grazing. The whole process took most of the year to formulate. Jane and I started planning some kind of transition last February while on vacation in Gulf Shores. When we ﬁnally settled on a plan, it took another few months to work the details and get it all down on paper. We interviewed several outstanding prospective candidates in September and made our choice in October. This week, we signed the eight-page lease agreement with Carson Welsh for at least ﬁve years. Carson is a very impressive young man with great potential due to his positive approach and strong work ethic. He is the junior member of the Welsh Cattle Co. and the son of Shannon and Renee Welsh. We have already formed a good beginning bond, and I look forward to mentoring him as he develops his operation here at River Oak. I wish all of you and yours a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year. And, we are truly blessed to be able to raise our cattle as we wish in this great country. Trevor Toland MACOMB

Chill in the air Our late fall has rolled into more of a late winter kind of

climate here in Raleigh. What a mess. It has been cool and wet all month. The brutal cold snap that came through towards the middle of November was unexpected and certainly unwelcome. The brood herd had only put on a light hair coat by this time. I can’t imagine what it is like in the Northern Plains when the early winter storms come through. The cattle aren’t prepared and sometimes there isn’t anything the ranchers can do. As herdsmen, we look at ways to keep the animals comfortable and stress free, and there are times when we feel helpless. Adding a few extra calories to the ration doesn’t seem like it is enough. The body condition across our herd is still really good, and in reality things aren’t as awful as it appears sometimes. I’m not sure how much rain we had this month, but we had precipitation 13 out of the 30 days. More than half the month, it has been cool and cloudy. The gloom has been hard on moral. The preg checking was a success with higher than average conception rates. We decided to put embryos in our open cows again this year. That worked well last year, and the open cow market is still in a sad state. Salvage value of the brood cows are half of what they were a couple of years ago. Raising an embryo calf is an alternative to selling open cows in a down market. We still plan to sell the cows. The embryo will help add some value. The stockpiled fescue is holding on by a thread by this point. Our growing season ended sooner than we thought it would. All of the herd is getting supplemented with hay and in some groups a big percentage of their diet. They have all reached the last leg of gestation. The calving season is right around the corner. Let’s all hope and pray for a tranquil weather pattern to start oﬀ the new year. Todd Slykhuis RALEIGH

Metabolic Syndrome is the associated laminitis or “founder,” which can permanently cripple a horse if enough sensitive laminae in the hoof are damaged. It is thought that insulin resistance is the component of EMS that predisposes horses to laminitis. Insulin resistance basically means that normal concentrations of insulin that should induce expected changes in target tissues – that is facilitating uptake of glucose from the blood by muscle, liver, fat and other tissues — fails to cause those expected changes. The horse’s pancreas then compensates by secreting higher and higher levels of insulin to cause the required responses in body tissues. This excess insulin causes numerous negative health consequences that equine researchers are actively studying, in hopes of finding more effective treatments for horses that suffer from this condition. It is possible that high levels of insulin — which the body produces to regulate circulating glucose levels — may restrict the ability of blood vessels per-

fusing the hoof to dilate when stressed and then contribute to laminitis. The currently recommended management-related treatments for EMS horses that are prone to obesity and laminitis include reducing the overall caloric intake, decreasing the starch and sugar content of the diet — no grain — increasing exercise and limiting access to lush pasture. Other recommendations include using a grazing muzzle to slow down the rate of forage intake, or conﬁning a horse to a dry lot. Soaking the horse’s hay for 30 minutes may help to decrease the starch content, and replacing grain with a commercial ration balancer helps to provide required protein, vitamins and minerals without adding potentially harmful calories from starchy feed. Some varieties of pasture grass contain more sugar and starch than others, so contact your nearest Extension horse specialist for advice on pasture management for EMS horses. Some se-

verely aﬀected horses may need to be kept oﬀ pasture altogether to avoid recurring problems with laminitis. Some medical therapies are available for treatment of EMS horses, as well. These include treatment with Levothyroxine sodium, which recent research has found to accelerate weight loss and increase insulin sensitivity. However, medical intervention is expensive and should be considered to be short-term assistance to speed weight loss and improve insulin sensitivity while management practices are being implemented in order to reduce the likelihood of laminitis. There is no miracle cure available for horses with Equine Metabolic Syndrome, but proper management, especially avoiding grain and increasing riding time in affected horses, can greatly improve the quality of life for EMS horses.

Good soil health

“Regardless of what the percentage or exact amount that might be coming from agriculture, we have to make sure we’re doing our part.” Ben Wicker, executive director INDIANA AGRICULTURE NUTRIENT ALLIANCE

Ag Nutrient Alliance focuses on sustainability By Erica Quinlan

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. — The Indiana Agriculture Nutrient Alliance was formed to educate farmers about nutrient management and good soil health practices. “This is the vision we’ve established as an organization: healthy soils, clean water and viable farms,” said Ben Wicker, executive director of IANA. “We need to make sure we treat all three of these in balance. We need the healthy soil in order to be as successful in production as we can. We need clean water for on-farm use and for those downstream of us, as well. “But at the end of the day, we need to make sure our farms remain viable.” The organization created a list of goals that they hope to accomplish by 2025. “As we established these goals, we wanted to make sure they were directionally correct, as well as aspirational,” Wicker said. “To the point that, I want people to come up to us and say ‘there’s no way you can do that — you can’t accomplish that.’ “Because the next question we want to ask is why? When we ask that question, we can begin to uncover what those barriers to adoption are and figure out how to move forward from there.” GOALS FOR 2025 n Make nutrient management plans. The goal is to have 100% of farmers regularly performing soil sampling and 100% of farmers implementing plans for nutrient management. n Hone in on application timing. The goal is to have 100% of farmers making frozen and snow covered group applications only as a last resort and 75% of Indiana farmers making nutrient applications at planting or in season. n Protect soil health. The goals are to increase living green cover acres to 40% of Indiana cropland, increase reduced tillage acres by 25% in Indiana and increase no-till or strip-till acres by 10% in Indiana. “We know we have water quality challenges out there,” Wicker said. “When you look to the south, where about 80% of Indiana’s waters flow, in the Gulf of Mexico they have an excess nitrate problem. “Those of you from the northeast and western Lake Erie Basin know that there are algae blooms and phosphorus building in that watershed. “The important thing, as agriculture, that we have to remember: regardless of what the percentage or exact amount that might be coming from agriculture, we have to make sure we’re doing our part, making our investments and showing others the progress we’re making.” The organization encourages farmers to follow the “4 R’s” of soil health.

Bandit ‘buzz’ at farm show

| ILLINOIS AGRINEWS | www.agrinews-pubs.com

“(360 Bandit) puts the nitrogen along with sulfur or other liquid components three inches away from the seed and about one inch down on both sides of the seed trench.” Lucas Helton, regional manager 360 YIELD CENTER

By Tom C. Doran AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

PEORIA, Ill. — A nitrogen application practice that’s said to be two times more efficient than broadcast-applied was featured at the Greater Peoria Farm Show. “360 Bandit is the new and exciting product that we have that most of the buzz has been around the last year or so,” said Lucas Helton, 360 Yield Center regional manager for central and southern Helton Illinois, southern Indiana, Kentucky and Missouri. 360 Bandit mounts to the planter row units in front of the closing wheel and puts liquid nitrogen in the sweet spot for early root interception and uptake. With a spring-loaded coulter and shallow placement, 360 Bandit doesn’t rob downforce from the row unit. There also is no impact on closing the trench over the seed. “It puts the nitrogen along with sulfur or other liquid components three inches away from the seed and about one inch down on both sides of the seed trench,” Helton said. “We wanted to make sure we got it far enough away from the seed that we didn’t experience any burn, but we wanted it close enough to where those roots could still intercept it. “Bandit puts it shallow enough that we don’t have to worry about that root growing into a hot zone because as we get rainfall that’s going to bring the nitrogen down into soil profile and get it right there in the root zone to be readily available for that plant early in that plant’s life.” The application system addresses both the need for greater efficiency and keeping the nutrients for the crop when and where they’re needed. “We’ve seen banded nitrogen be up to two times more efficient than broadcast nitrogen. So, when we started looking at some of the things we could do to get better nitrogen use efficiency we thought putting nitrogen right on the planter and banding it right next to that seed trench was a great way to gain that efficiency and add yield at the end of the season, as well,” Helton said. 360 WAVE Looking ahead to the next growing season and beyond, Helton noted other new products that are in the pipeline, including expansion of those already available. A new starter placement attachment, the 360 Wave, is being tested again in spring 2020, with limited production anticipated for the 2021 planting season. The 360 Wave mounts to the rear of the planter row unit shank and is an angled blade that slices through the seed trench sidewall to deliver starter to the side and below the seed as it follows the trench curves. The attachment gently surrounds seeds with moist soil by peeling a band of moist soil from the lower half of the seed trench and rolling it over the seed. That reduces the risk of slotting and air pockets in dry, wet and ideal seedbed conditions. Helton said going forward there will be model expansions for products such as the 360 Yield Saver, 360 Y-Drop, 360 Guide and 360 Glide systems. Tom C.

Manage weather challenges by planting diverse maturities By Tom C. Doran

and 25% late. We still think spreading your diversity, your genetics, your maturPEORIA, Ill. — Rod ities, makes a lot of sense,” Parkinson’s central Illinois Parkinson said. territory was a microcosm of what most Corn Belt LOOKING AHEAD farmers experienced during Jumping ahead to 2020, this past growing season. the late harvest, much of P a rk i n son, Wy f fel s Hybrids district sales manager serving Knox, Peoria and Stark counties, said the season started in his area around April 22, when conditions allowed some to catch up on applying ammonia and other duties during a five-day window. The month of May was not a friend as the 16th day was the only suitable day for work, followed by two more weeks of rain totaling 8 to 10 inches. “So, it’s raining in May 28. The USDA comes out with a report saying there’s only 45% of the nation’s crop planted. Everybody was pretty puckered up. So, at that time we were in the process of switching out. We switched out at least 20% of our original sales for earlier maturity numbers. Our dealers did a heck of a job doing that and guys got in to plant about June 3,” Parkinson said. Parkinson added Wyffels was well-positioned to provide hybrids for those farmers needing to switch to early maturities. “We did have a pretty good supply of 106- to 108day corn. Some guys stuck with their original plans. Some guys said they were still going to plant their 112-day in June,” he said in a Dec. 3 interview at the Greater Peoria Farm Show. “I think the key is a little diversity, have some really early corn which I think dried down better. The early corn had good yield for Juneplanted, but still the guys that kept 111-, 112-day it was really wet, but I think it still did have a little more yield. We were very fortunate to be able to fill a lot of needs, so we were pretty blest. “Guys were forced to do things they normally wouldn’t. It was wet. Therefore, it caused some poor roots on that June planted corn, but still, all in all, I will say that people were pretty pleased with June corn. I even had some cases where the June corn was better than the April corn for some, which is a complete anomaly. You might not ever see that in the next 20 years.” He estimated about 5% to 7% of the corn is yet to be harvested in his area. “Guys are still plugging away and trying to get it all picked up and looking forward to 2020,” he added. Abnormal growing conditions are more often the norm and planting diverse maturities are an important piece of managing weather challenges. “If we could all see the future and pick the one hybrid that’s going to do the best it would make our job easy, but we obviously can’t do that. So, we always tell guys to plant a package — 25% of whatever you consider early in your maturity range, 50% in the medium maturity AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

which was done in undesirable conditions, could force the need for additional fieldwork next spring to prepare the seedbed and mirror the spring of 2019. “We’re behind like we were last year. I think the guys who are on a rotation

of two years of corn, one year of soybeans, prepare early and that’s some of the fields they harvest early. A lot of those are probably chiseled, so I think that plan is in place. It’s the acres that are in limbo that guys never really got

to chisel that might be forced to go to soybeans,” Parkinson explained. “Unfortunately, there are some conditions with compaction and other issues where I would tell a guy they would probably better going to soybeans.

We always want to be honest with them and make the best recommendation. It’s going to be a little bit of a challenge unless we can get a window here and get some more ammonia on, get some more tillage done.”

Meat exports drive U.S. livestock industry growth By Martha Blum AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

CHICAGO — Exporting meat is a signiﬁcant driver for the U.S. livestock industry. “The ability to supply customers around the world at competitive prices and the ability to access those markets has become ver y impor tant,” said James Mintert, director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture and professor of agricultural economics at Purdue University.

“The future for the industry is probably coming from international markets rather than U.S. consumers,” he said during the Improving Midwest Agriculture and the Environment meeting. U.S. animal agriculture is a big industry, and it’s getting bigger in a fairly rapid way, Mintert said during the Annual Agriculture Conference at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. “Meat production in the U.S. is up about 70% since 1990,” he said.

Henry County, Illinois

In 1990, U.S. beef, pork and poultry production totaled about 60 billion pounds. “In a span of three decades there has been a dramatic change and the most recent data says it’s up to over 100 billion pounds of meat production,” Mintert said. However, meat consumption in the United States has not changed as much. “In 1990, the estimate of meat U.S. consumers ate was less than 200 pounds per capita,” Mintert said.

“It’s now over 220 pounds, which is only about 12% more meat consumed by consumers.” T herefore, the data shows the growth in the industry is a result of strong meat exports. “The international trade aspect has been pretty phenomenal the last three decades,” Mintert said. “In 1985, we were importing more meat than we were exporting.” The crossover point occurred in 1990 when the United States became a net

exporter of meat. “Now we’re exporting almost 14 billion pounds of meat from the U.S, and that has really been driven by consumer income growth around the world,” Mintert said. “Consumers want to improve their diet by eating more animal protein.” In the United States, a shift to increased poultry consumption has been occurring for decades. “In 1960, meat consumption was comprised of 21% from the poultry sector, and the most recent

data suggest about 50%,” Mintert said. During this same period, pork consumption went from 36% of U.S. meat consumption down to 23% and beef went from 38% to about 26%. Mintert noted that cattle are produced in every state of the nation. However, it is centered heavily in the central part of the United States, especially in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa. “Beef production is heavily intertwined with crop production, and the third largest crop by acres is hay behind corn and soybeans,” Mintert said. “That’s pretty signiﬁcant because how we market hay is through cattle.” In addition, pastures also are heavily oriented towards the middle part of the country and especially the western part of the United States. “The beef industry is all about taking advantage of pasture and hay resources that would otherwise not be utilized,” Mintert said. Texas has been the largest cow/calf state in the nation for decades. “Historically, Missouri was the No. 2 state, and over the last 10 to 15 years, Oklahoma has slipped into the second largest state and Missouri is now No. 3,” Mintert said. Cattle feeding is concentrated in the Great Plains states of Texas, Nebraska and Kansas. “In 1960, the No. 1 cattle feeding state in the nation was Iowa, but then we shifted cattle production further west as the industry evolved and we moved away from farmer-feeder operations towards commercial scale operations,” Mintert said. “Iowa has made a bit of a comeback and is now the No. 4 cattle feeding state in the nation, which wasn’t true a decade ago,” he said.

EXPORTS FROM PAGE B1

“There has been an increase in cattle inventories in the Midwest largely driven by the availability of byproduct feeds from

the ethanol industr y, which gives a comparative advantage to this area.” Improvements in technology and management have contributed to a significant change in efficiency. “This is true in the beef sector and even more true in the pork sector,”

MACOUPIN & JERSEY COUNTIES, ILLINOIS

FARMLAND AUCTION

Mintert said. In 1990, the average production per cow per year was 533 pounds and in 2018 the annual production increased to 657 pounds. “That is about 4.1 pounds per year, which is a pretty significant increase,” Mintert said. “That change in technology includes a variety of things like genetics, management schemes and nutrition.”

For the hog industry, Mintert said, there were 7.3 million head of sows in the breeding herd in 1990. “That number has fallen sharply as the industry has become more productive,” he said. “Pork production is up over 70% since 1990, but producers are doing that with a breeding herd that is 9% smaller.” Pork producers have increased the number of pigs

per litter by 39% since 1990. “In 1990, pigs born per litter was 7.8, and in 2019, it increased to 11.1 pigs per litter,” Mintert said. Pounds of dressed pork on an annual basis per sow in 1990 totaled 2,200 pounds and increased to 4,200 pounds by 2018. “Over a three-decade period, pork production increased almost 90%,” Mintert said.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 3 @ 10:00AM

“The ability to produce more pork and beef from smaller herds means we have more food at a lower cost, reduced land use, there are fewer greenhouse gases and reduced environmental impacts,” he said. Martha Blum can be reached at 815-223-2558, ext. 117, or marthablum@ agrinews-pubs.com.

along with tomatoes, peppers and eggplants. Yams belong to the genus Dioscorea, which contains over 600 species of plants, most of which are tropical. Several different species of yams are cultivated, with the most commonly grown being white yam, Dioscorea rotundata, from Africa and water yam, Dioscorea alata, from Asia. A majority of yam production takes place in Africa â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 95% of global production â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with Nigeria being the largest producer. Yams that are available in the United States are typically grown in Caribbean countries. Yams grow as a vine and produce an underground tuber, which vaguely resembles sweet potatoes, that are long cylindrical. Yams can range in size from the size of a potato to extremely large, up to 5 feet long and weighing over 100 pounds. Their ďŹ&#x201A;esh can be white to bright yellow to purple or pink, and the tuber is covered in a tough, scaly skin that is diďŹ&#x192;cult to remove. They are often boiled and mashed as well as fried, roasted, or baked, like baked potatoes. Yams are starchier and drier when compared to the sweet potato varieties most commonly grown in the United States. Sweet potatoes, Ipomoea batatas, produce storage roots that have smooth thin skin that can range in color from white to yellow, red, purple, or brown. These roots are short and blocky and have tapered ends. The ďŹ&#x201A;esh also ranges in color from white to yellow, orange, or orange-red. Sweet potato varieties are classiďŹ ed as either â&#x20AC;&#x153;ďŹ rmâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;soft.â&#x20AC;? When cooked, ďŹ rm sweet potatoes remain ďŹ rm and are dry and crumbly â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like a

â&#x20AC;&#x153;regularâ&#x20AC;? potato â&#x20AC;&#x201D; while soft varieties become soft, moist, and sweet. Soft types typically have dark orange skin and orange ďŹ&#x201A;esh. In the United States, these are the sweet potatoes we usually refer to as yams â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they are also the most commonly grown sweet potatoes. So, why do we sometimes call sweet potatoes yams? According to the Library of Congress, the confusion between yams and sweet potatoes began when soft varieties of sweet potato were introduced to the United States: â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the United States, ďŹ rm varieties of sweet potatoes were produced before soft varieties. When soft varieties were ďŹ rst grown commercially, there was a need to diďŹ&#x20AC;erentiate between the two. African slaves had already been calling the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;softâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sweet potatoes â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;yamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; because they resembled the yams in Africa. Thus, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;softâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sweet

potatoes were referred to as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;yamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to distinguish them from the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ďŹ rmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; varieties.â&#x20AC;? Today, the U.S. Department of Agriculture requires that when the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;yamâ&#x20AC;? is used to describe sweet potatoes, it must also be labeled as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;sweet

potato.â&#x20AC;? Unless you speciďŹ cally search for yams, which can often be found at ethnic markets, you are probably eating sweet potatoes. Kenneth Johnson is a University of Illinois Extension horticulture educator.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Imagine trying to quickly turn a damp piece of plywood into a liquid and squeezing it through several small openings. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essentially the challenge facing bioreďŹ neries trying to turn corn waste and related materials into ethanol fuel. A big challenge in biomass processing, such as turning waste into ethanol fuel, is the diďŹ&#x192;culty in moving the biomass to, within and through the equipment needed to physically and chemically treat the biomass as part of the fuel production process. Researchers at Purdue University have received $2.3 million in funding from the Department of Energyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bioenergy Technologies OďŹ&#x192;ce for their work to create computer models to simplify the design and construction of bioreďŹ neries to help them better perform reliably, sustainably, safely and economically. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have basically used fundamental theories, particle properties, and measured bulk characteristics to develop and verify computational tools

BRIEFS State hopes rumble strips cut crashes COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Some Ohio lawmakers say they hope to prevent numerous vehicle crashes by gradually installing rumble strips down the center of some roads. Ohio Rep. Timothy E. Ginter, a Salem Republican, is chief sponsor of a bill to require the state Department of Transportation to add rumble strips on all undivided, two-way highways with speed limits higher than 45 mph. The Dayton Daily News reports Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s House passed the bill unanimously in June and the Senate Transportation Committee held a hearing on it recently. State Highway Patrol data shows more than 500 people have died over the past ďŹ ve years due to drivers crossing over the center of undivided Ohio highways. The Federal Highway Administration said rumble strips have reduced rural two-lane road crashes by about 45% nationwide.

The latest innovation and the predictive models come on top of other patented technologies created by the Purdue team and patented through the Purdue Research Foundation OďŹ&#x192;ce of Technology Commercialization. The analytical models address on machinery and operating conditions developed at several locations, including Purdue, with the latest grant going to address techniques previously developed and patented at Purdue based on technology that avoids chemical agents in the production of ethanol fuel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are a small piece of the bioenergy puzzle, but we believe our work is part of the larger progress to reduce carbon emissions and help farmers,â&#x20AC;?

Detroit (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Bankrupt air bag maker Takata is recalling about 1.4 million driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s-side inďŹ&#x201A;ators in the United States because they could explode and hurl shrapnel. They also may not inďŹ&#x201A;ate properly to protect people in a crash. The recall covers certain BMW, Volkswagen, Honda, Toyota and Mitsubishi vehicles made from 1995 to 2000. BMW already has issued recalls, and the other automakers will follow. Unlike previous recalls, the non-azide inďŹ&#x201A;ators do not use volatile ammonium nitrate to ďŹ ll the air bags in a crash. Takata says in government documents that it made about 4.5 million of the inďŹ&#x201A;ators worldwide, but only a portion are still in use because the vehicles are so old. BMW is telling owners of some older 3-Series cars not to drive them because of potentially dangerous Takata air bag inďŹ&#x201A;ators. The German automaker recalled more than 116,000 of the cars in the United States as part of a larger recall of 1.4 million inďŹ&#x201A;ators by Takata.

Edmunds offers a peek at 2020’s most notable vehicles By Will Kaufman

The automotive landscape evolves every year, with various brands and models pushing the envelope in new directions. We’re rounding up the most significant vehicles for 2020, presented in alphabetical order. These

are cars, trucks and SUVs that reveal major trends and shifts in the industry. 2020 CHEVROLET CORVETTE The redesigned Corvette is a revolutionary leap for the quintessential American sports car. Chevy moved the Corvette

to a mid-engine layout — more like a supercar than a traditional sports car — in its quest to unlock even more performance. Putting the engine behind the seats will significantly change the handling and driving dynamics of the Corvette. The price starts under $60,000.

2020 FORD ESCAPE Ford is discontinuing most of its passenger cars in the United States in favor of SUVs. With only the lackluster EcoSport for company, the newly redesigned Escape has to do the heavy lifting for Ford in terms of small passenger vehicles. With more standard features, improved technology and better fuel efficiency — especially with the new hybrid model — the Escape can certainly compete with other compact SUVs. But can it also compete with traditional cars? Are current sedan or hatchback fans ready to make the switch? 2020 GMC SIERRA HD The entire heavy-duty pickup-truck class has been revamped for 2020,

with every manufacturer updating designs, cabins, powertrains and technology features. These are consumer trucks capable of commercial-grade performance that also offer the comforts and luxury shoppers have come to expect from standard full-size trucks, and their prices have increased to match. We could have easily picked any competitor from this class, but the Sierra HD is most exemplary of this trend with its 35,500-pound max towing capacity and luxury-oriented Denali trim. It also showcases some impressive new technology features such as a camera system that lets you see both inside and behind trailers while towing.

2020 NISSAN VERSA For 2020, the redesigned Versa is ditching its “cheapest car” crown in favor of a nicer experience and more technology, and that technology makes the Versa significant. For less than $19,000, the Versa can be equipped with a full suite of active driver safety features. The Versa offers the most comprehensive set of safety features for the lowest price we’ve seen and brings some of these features to the ultra-budget subcompact sedan class for the first time. 2020 PORSCHE TAYCAN The Porsche brand is synonymous with sports cars, so it’s big news that it’s releasing its first all-electric car. The Taycan promises to bring Porsche-level handling and performance to EVs, along with robust engineering designed to increase the car’s reliability and longevity. The Porsche badge is the ultimate litmus test for whether EVs can fill all the niches where gas cars dominate. The Taycan is also the first shot across the bow of the Tesla Model S, the car that really launched Tesla into the mainstream. Will Kaufman is a content strategist and news editor at Edmunds.

Winter maintenance tips for barn heaters

BRIEFS EPA rejects ban on predator bombs WASHINGTON (AP) — Trappers can keep using sodium cyanide bombs to kill coyotes and other livestock predators, the Trump administration said Dec. 5, rejecting calls for a ban despite repeated instances of the devices also poisoning other wildlife, pets and people. The Environmental Protection Agency’s interim decision newly restricts use of the so-called M-44s within 600 feet of a home and 300 feet of a public road or path. Users also would have to post two warning signs within 15 feet of the poison bombs. The agency’s assistant administrator, Alexandra Dunn, said in a statement that the EPA had worked with the Agriculture Department “to ensure there are safe and eﬀective tools for farmers and ranchers to protect livestock.”

$1.5 million to fight wild hogs in Georgia ATLANTA (AP) — The U.S. Department of Agriculture is putting up nearly $1.5 million to help control Georgia’s wild hog population. The recently announced funding is part of a program called the “Feral Swine Eradication and Control Pilot Program.” . “I think one of the primary reasons it’s important for the USDA to get involved is because of our relationship with private landowners,” said Tina Jermone, a state resource conservationist with the department. Jermone said that funding will go to controlling the feral swine population, as well as educating people about the impact the animals have on natural resources and wildlife. Wild hogs are an aggressive invasive species that threaten everything from farms to endangered sea turtles in Georgia. Jermone said they can be territorial and aggressive.

ASSUMPTION, Ill. — Maintaining the proper environment in swine barns is essential for protecting animal health and promoting productivity. Austin Zimmerman, sales engineer for Automated Production Systems, offers the following recommendations to prepare barn heaters before winter arrives: Q Blow dust and debris out of heaters with compressed air or a leaf blower tool. This will help promote efficient, as well as safe operation of the units. Q Make sure the ignitor, sail switch and flame sen-

sor are not covered with carbon or dust. Carbon can build up as a byproduct of the burner. Q Move the ﬂame probe ground wire to the burner to ensure the heater functions properly. Q Activate the heater from the room ventilation controller, which is important to make certain that the controller is communicating correctly. Q Watch the heater with the service door open to conﬁrm the proper start-up sequence: The fan motor starts and sail switch engages; the ignitor starts and glows

red hot; the ﬂame ignites when the gas value opens; and the ignitor turns oﬀ. “If any part of the start-up sequence does

not successfully complete, producers should troubleshoot the failure or if necessary, contact their dealer,” Zimmerman said.

In addition to heaters, he recommended producers check barn curtains to make sure they are in good physical condition.

Illinois Soybean Summit March 10 in Springfield SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — ILSoyAdvisor will bring the latest in soybean management, agronomy, technology and business management to Illinois soybean producers at the 2020 Soybean Summit March 10 in Springfield. The event is funded by the Illinois Soybean Association soybean checkoff program and is free to Illinois and surrounding area farmers, agronomists and others in the soybean production industry. A lineup of expert speakers will share the latest agronomic tools and actionable recommendations to boost yields and grower profitability. “If you grow soybeans and you want higher yields and bet-

ter profits, we encourage you to ‘say hello’ to improved soybean management at the 2020 ILSoyAdvisor Soybean Summit,” said Linda Kull, ISA diMcGillicuddy rector of ag i n novat ion s. “This event will introduce attendees to leading soybean experts and all the latest actionable information to help growers be successful.” The agenda is packed with valuable on-farm production in-

formation, agribusiness management support and ag technology updates. It also features an onsite trade show, allowing the opportunity to network and exchange ideas with producers, consultants and industry leaders. The summit will host two keynote sessions with forward-thinking industry leaders. John McGillicuddy, McGillicuddy Corrigan Agronomics, will share how producers and consultants can evaluate fields and apply individualized management techniques as needed. Sara Wyant, president of AgriPulse Communications Inc., will offer her perspective on the indus-

try’s top issues soybean producers should be aware of in 2020 and how to mitigate risk in their business. Attendees will participate in a numWyant ber of unique breakout sessions separated into three separate tracks: agronomy, agribusiness management and ag tech. Breakout speakers and topics will be announced in the coming months on the Soybean Summit event page. The agenda also

features a grower and expert panel, allowing the audience to ask questions about in-season management practices and challenges they’d like to overcome on their own farms. The summit will be from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Crowne Plaza, 3000 S. Dirksen Pkwy., Springfield. Visit ILSoyAdvisor. com/SoybeanSummit for the event agenda and reservations. Continuing education credits will be offered to certified crop advisers for qualifying breakout sessions and keynotes. For more information, contact the ISA Meeting and Events Planning Team at 888-826-4011, or events@ilsoy.org.

Top Farmer Conference to focus on risk management

Under Secretary for Farm Production and Conservation Bill Northey (from left), Wabash Communications CEO Barry Adair and USDA Rural Development State Director Douglas Wilson announce the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s $12.8 million investment in high-speed broadband in southern Illinois.

USDA invests $12.8M in rural broadband LOUISVILLE, Ill. — U.S. Department of Agriculture Under Secretary for Farm Production and Conservation Bill Northey announced USDA has invested $12.8 million in high-speed broadband infrastructure that will create or improve e-Connectivity for more than 1,650 homes in rural Illinois. This is one of many funding announcements in the first round of USDA’s ReConnect Pilot Program investments. “We know that rural commu-

nities need robust, modern infrastructure to thrive, and that includes having access to broadband e-Connectivity,” Northey said. “Broadband is no longer an amenity. It is essential for education, health care and public safety. I’m excited about the tremendous benefits broadband will have for farmers here in Illinois. USDA is committed to being a strong partner to rural communities in deploying this critical infrastructure, because

we know when rural America thrives, all of America thrives.” Wabash Telephone Cooperative Inc. will use a $12.8 million 50% loan-grant combination to deploy 298 miles of fiber-optic cable in unserved areas of Jefferson and Wayne counties in Illinois. This investment is anticipated to reach 1,684 households, 31 farms, 29 businesses, nine educational facilities, two critical community facilities and one healthcare center.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — The Purdue Top Farmer Conference will feature a pre-conference workshop focused entirely on risk management strategies on Jan. 9. The pre-conference is offered by Purdue’s Center for Commercial Agriculture and will take place at the Beck Agricultural Center, 4540 U.S. 52 W, West Lafayette. T he pre - con ference session, “Ag Survivor — Strategies for Managing Risks in Your Operation,” will provide an overview of potential risks farmers may face in 2020 and offer management strategies that will play a critical role in successful farm practices for the coming year. Experts John Hewlett, ranch/ farm management specialist from the University of Wyoming, and Jay Parsons, associate professor of agricultural economics from the University of Nebraska, will lead workshop participants in developing strategies that will enable their farms to thrive in today’s challenging environment. “Farmers faced difficult decisions this year that had the potential to drastically impact their

operations,” said James Mintert, Purdue agricultural economics professor and director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture. “The ag survivor workshop gives farmers an opportunity to analyze potential risks facing their farm and develop strategies to combat those risks in a hands-on learning environment. The pre-conference will equip participants with the tools and confidence they need for future success.” Used by thousands of farmers across the nation, the workshop will precede the main portion of the Purdue Top Farmer Conference on Jan. 10, featuring some of the nation’s top experts on marketing, risk management and crop production. Registration for the full-day conference on Jan. 10 is $150, or $50 for the half-day pre-conference on Jan. 9 only. For those interested in attending both days, the center is offering a bundled discount of $175. For more information about the conference, contact Sarah Zahn at 765- 494 -7004 or smithse@purdue.edu, or visit purdue.ag/topfarmer20.

Three Conservation Cropping seminars set CHAMPAIGN, Ill. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; With crazy 2019 weather, planting conditions and harvest delays, talk about cover crops in Illinois might be at an all-time high. For those who havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet got on board with all the sustainable and regenerative changes in agriculture, attending one of the Jan. 21-23 seminars might just fit the bill. Start making plans now to attend one of the 2020 Conservation Cropping Seminar events. Speakers and special guests include Hans Kok, Indiana Soil Health Consultant; Bryan Young, Purdue University weed and chemistry professor; and Rick and Aaron Clark, Illinois conservation farmers on the cutting edge of making things doable and profitable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These meetings can introduce farmers to the information, the scientific research, and testimonial evidence they need to take steps in transforming their own farm operations. Farmers learn from the speakers at these events, but they also learn from each other as they share successes and lessons learned,â&#x20AC;? said State Conservationist Ivan Dozier. The seminars will be Jan. 21 at Mt. Vernonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s DoubleTree Hotel; Jan. 22 at Bloomingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s DoubleTree Hotel; and Jan. 23 at Rochelleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hickory Grove

Illinois lists new dicamba restrictions SPRINGFIELD, Ill. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Illinois Department of Agriculture announced additional label restrictions for the 2020 growing season for the herbicide dicamba. IDOA Director John Sullivan has determined the department will be forwarding 24 (c) registration requests to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for Illinois specific labels for the use of dicamba on soybeans in 2020 requiring the following additional provisions: n Do note apply this product if the air temperature at the field at the time of application is over 85 degrees or if the National Weather Serviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forecasted high temperature for the nearest available location for the day of application exceeds 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Local National Weather Service forecast are available at www.weather. gov. n Do not apply this product after June 20, 2020. n Before making an application of this product, the applicator must consult the FieldWatch sensitive crop registry â&#x20AC;&#x201C; www.fieldwatch.com â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and comply with all associated record keeping label requirements. n Maintain the label-specified downwind buffer between the last treated row and the nearest downfield edge of any Illinois Nature Preserves Commission site. n It is best to apply product when the wind is blowing away from sensitive areas, which include but are not limited to bodies of water and non-residential, uncultivated areas that may harbor sensitive plant species. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The number of off-target complaints received during the 2019 growing season rose dramatically, and the Department is taking action to reduce those numbers,â&#x20AC;? Sullivan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These additional restrictions were reached after careful consideration with our Environmental Programs team at the department, as well as input from stakeholders in the agriculture industry.â&#x20AC;? In addition to these prov isions, applicators must follow the federal guidelines when it comes to applying dicamba, including taking an annual certified applicator training course.

Conference Center. The 2020 events run from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with time scheduled during the day to meet and visit speakers, sponsors, or chat with other participants in a small group setting. Cost is $20 and includes lunch. Register online at www.ccswcd.com or call 217-352-3536. According to Dozier, Illinois farmers are interested in finding solutions and strategies that can improve success with challenging weather conditions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe more farmers are ready to take steps to make small improvements on their farm that make sense environmentally and economically. These seminars are the perfect place to begin having those conversations and start making those changes,â&#x20AC;? Dozier said. Local businesses and organizations can exhibit, serve as sponsors and reach local and new clients. For details, visit www.ccswcd.com. Primary sponsors and organizers of seminars include Illinois Department of Agriculture, USDAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Natural Resources Conservation Service, American Farmland Trust, the Illinois Stewardship Alliance, Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and local Soil and Water Conservation Districts.

Private applicator test-only sessions scheduled URBANA, Ill. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wishing to apply restricted-use pesticides to property that they own or control in the production of an agricultural commodity must be certified

One hundred years ago, most farmers and rural Americans didn’t yet have electricity. Today, we are experimenting with self-driving tractors. years ago, Zippy Duvall theSixty American farmer fed 26 American people. Today, the Farm Bureau average U.S. farm Federation feeds 166 annually in the United States and abroad. Fifty years ago, many small family farmers milked 100 dairy-cow herds by hand. Today, a robotic milker can handle nearly twice that workload. The American farm is always adapting and improving thanks to innovation developed on and off the farm. Farmers are innovators — by nature and necessity. It’s in our blood to look for better ways to do things — to save precious time and resources. Over this centennial year at American Farm Bureau, we have celebrated the great strides we have taken together in agriculture, but more importantly we are looking to the future and how we can continue to grow stronger together. At Farm Bureau, we are tackling agriculture’s challenges from all sides. From the halls of Congress to the corporate board room, agriculture is taking a seat at the table. We are proud of our advocacy work and the accomplishments we have seen together. But we also know that some of the greatest forces for change are far from our nation’s capital. They are the small business owners and hard-working entrepreneurs across this country — men and women like you who are working every day to make tomorrow a little better. That’s why we are proud to host the Ag Innovation Challenge for the sixth year.

Farmers are innovators — by nature and necessity. Farm Bureau began this competition because we wanted to promote and support the businesses that are driving U.S. agriculture and rural communities forward. And this year’s 10 semi-finalists are doing just that. This year’s top contenders include innovators who have developed systems to increase sustainability by turning waste into biochar and recycling food waste into fertilizer. We have farmer entrepreneurs who found ways to market their personal innovations to reduce cost and increase profitability. Several of this year’s semifinalists are harnessing technology to connect farmers with suppliers, equipment, workers and even bees. What do all these unique businesses have in common? They have seen challenges as opportunities. I’m excited for the whole Farm Bureau family to have an opportunity to meet these entrepreneurs as they compete live at our annual convention in Austin, Texas. Thanks to our sponsors, each team has already been awarded $10,000, which will go a long way in supporting their growing businesses, and in January, they will compete for the chance to be the next Farm Bureau Entrepreneur of the Year. I hope you’ll be sure to come learn more about the exciting work these folks are doing and cheer them on as they help advance agriculture. As we kick off the next century of Farm Bureau, we all can shape the future of agriculture — through the policies we advocate for, the business decisions we make and the calling we continue to answer. Zippy Duvall is the president of the American Farm Bureau Federation.

States see declines in net farm income By Harwood D. Schaffer and Daryll E. Ray

When talking about the seriousness of the downturn in the farm economy since the 2013 peak, most analysts use the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s calculation of net farm income as the measuring stick. We used it in this column recently. In most cases, the analysis deals with the change in NFI at the national level. The download file from the USDA that contains the national numbers also contains separate spreadsheets for each of the states. We wondered what the state-level sheets would tell us. Though the most recent release of NFI contains forecast numbers through the 2019 calendar year, the state-level spreadsheets only show information through 2018. As one flips through the individual state spreadsheets, it becomes clear that the national numbers do not reflect what is happening at the state level. In this column we will be looking at the changes in NFI that have taken place between 2013 and 2018. National NFI declined by 31.1% between 2013 and 2018. In 2013, eight states, California, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, Indiana and Texas, accounted for half of the national NFI, $63.8 billion of $123.8 billion in national NFI. By 2018, eight states accounted for a little less than $41.2 billion out of $84 billion in national NFI in that year. Florida was added to that list while Indiana sank to 14th place. Six states accounted for just over half of that decline, $20.8 billion out of a $39.7 billion decline in NFI.

Florida, Delaware, Wyoming, Nevada, Rhode Island, North Dakota and Alaska saw an increase in NFI between 2013 and 2018, though Alaska’s NFI remains negative throughout the period. Between 2013 and 2018, six states experience a decline in NFI greater than 50%, Tennessee, 79%; Nebraska, 64.8%; South Carolina, 61.8%; Indiana, 61.3%; Kansas, 53.4%; and Missouri, 51.8%. While the Market Facilitation Payments may make a difference for some states when 2019 state-level NFI numbers are released, they are not a long-term solution, or even short-term for many farmers. A serious shortfall in the production of grains and oilseeds in the United States or elsewhere in the world may have a one-time positive impact on prices, but such a situation is unlikely to have a permanent impact on crop prices. Unless we want to see a continued increase in the number of farm bankruptcies, something needs to change. It is difficult to see an income support program that will stabilize NFI somewhat evenly among states with very different agricultural production patterns. So, where does that leave U.S. farmers? They are left between a rock and a hard place. Income support programs cannot equitably solve the farm income problem and to date Congress has refused to consider a price support program. If 2020 is a relatively normal production year, it may be Congress that is between a rock, angry farmers, and a hard place, their past disdain for supply management programs. © 2019 Agricultural Policy Analysis Center.

tors. Lawmakers claimed they crafted it more narrowly to avoid free speech claims. However, U.S. District Judge James Gritzner said in his ruling filed Dec. 2 that the animal rights and civil rights groups filing the lawsuit had raised enough legal issues to allow the case to proceed. Gritzner also prohibited the state from enforcing the law while the lawsuit moves forward. Similar laws in Idaho and Utah have been struck down as unconstitutional.

With winter coming in like a lion this year thanks to an unprecedented Thanksgiving storm system that blasted the Midwest and East Coast, I thought I would my column Commodity reprint from the spring Insight of 2013 from my book, “Haunted By Jerry Welch Markets.” The column had to do with misleading old sayings. Anyway, here are some old saws that are far from being accurate. A large number of sayings should be doubted. For instance, if “all roads lead to Rome,” as the saying goes, then how do you get out of the place? Apparently, you don’t — which means, of course, that old, worn-out saying is a lie. When fall rolls around, investors are bombarded with this old saying: “October is the most bearish month for the stock market.” That old saw is dusted off to remind investors that all of the historically large declines with stocks took place in October, which is an absolutely accurate fact. It was Mark Twain, however, who said it best, stating, “October: This is one of the peculiarly dangerous months to speculate in stocks. The others are July, January, September, April, November, May, March, June, December, August and February.” Mr. Twain knew what he was talking about. Another old saying about the stock market, “Buy low, sell high,” is only half true. The total truth is, for short sellers anyway, “Sell high, buy low” works the same way. Short sellers make money if a stock or commodity goes down and they can buy it back at a lower price. “Buy low, sell high” is true because it is a successful strategy. So is, “Sell high, buy low.” Since the start of the trade war with China in early 2018, U.S. grain prices have been going lower, lower and lower. When the war began, soybean prices were around $10.80 a bushel, but recently fell to $8.67. Losses also have been seen with wheat and corn, as well. Those losses came even though farmers did not plant 15 million to 20 million acres because it was too wet and cold for most of the year. Clearly, 2019 has been a bummer for U.S. agriculture. However, another old saying that is not — and I repeat, not – misleading is this: “The best cure for low prices is low prices.” Based on how fickle Mother Nature can be, the potential for an end to the trade war with China and how quickly prices can reverse course when market psychology changes, my lean is that for now, enough is enough on the downside for the U.S. ag markets. But, understand, without an end to the trade war or help from Mother Nature, the upside potential for grains is limited. Still, I view prices here and now as “in the hole.” And I never suggest selling markets “in the hole.”

Free to More fallout from ‘Mount Tariff’ choose real meat One of the great aspects of being a citizen of these United States of America is the many freedoms we enjoy. Among those freedoms is the right to make our own Rural Issues decisions about whether we want Cyndi Young- to drink milk, eat meat, drive a Puyear Volkswagen van or change our legal name to Bluebell Spirit Rainbow. Although many aspects of our lives are over-regulated and overtaxed, I’ll put my country up against any other country in the world. No amount of advertising and fear-mongering from animal rights activists disguised as nutrition experts is going to convince me that I should become a vegetarian. I do not expect those herbivorous humans who prefer to feed only on plants to hear a radio commercial about the Friday night steak special at the bowling alley to suddenly become omnivorous. It simply doesn’t work that way. I think truth in labeling is important because I like, well, the truth. I’ve said many times that marketing is good and lying is not. Many in animal agriculture have voiced strong opinions regarding the labeling of fake meat and milk. Several states, including Missouri, Mississippi, Arkansas, Montana, South Dakota, Wyoming and Louisiana, have labeling laws in place that prohibit companies from misleading consumers into believing that a product is meat from livestock when it is actually plantbased or grown in a lab. A bipartisan bill was introduced in the U.S. House in late October that would regulate the labeling of artificial meat. Reps. Roger Marshall, R-Kansas, and Anthony Brindisi, D-New York, introduced the Real MEAT (Marketing Edible Artificials Truthfully) Act of 2019 to help consumers distinguish beef from alternative protein products. The bill would codify the definition of beef for labeling purposes, reinforce existing misbranding provisions to eliminate consumer confusion and ensure communication between the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Food and Drug Administration to enforce the new branding. I do not have a bone to pick with those who create, sell, or consume plant-based patties. I like variety in my diet, but given a choice, I do prefer a real meat patty over one made of pea or textured soybean protein, fungi, seeds, potatoes or black beans. But, hip-hip-hooray, as an adult human living in the land of the free and the home of the brave, I am free to choose. Let’s face it, not all vegans and vegetarians are buzzed up about the sudden popularity of the plantbased burgers available at many fast food chains and grocery stores. Last month, a suit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida by a vegan on behalf of other vegans, claiming Burger King has “contaminated” the Impossible Burgers by exposing them to meat byproducts on the grill. Responding to an article about fake meat on the Brownfield Ag News website, one man commented, “I’ve been a vegetarian for more than 25 years, and I wonder why Burger King thinks a fake meat burger is going to make me want their food… especially since it replicates meat.”

No major American daily newspaper features sharper, more poisonous pens than the market-focused writers at the Wall Street Journal. When these opinion peddlers go after you in print, they hit hard, fast and — most Farm & Food of the time — with inarguable fact. File Witness the Journal’s lead editorial Dec. 3, tiAlan Guebert tled “Mount Tariff Erupts Again,” a full-frontal assault on President Donald Trump’s day-before tweets in which he imposed new steel tariffs on two of American agriculture’s biggest export competitors — and now China’s growing ag suppliers — Brazil and Argentina. “It’s hard to know exactly what motivated Mr. Trump’s tweets,” wondered the editorialists, “… but he seems to think he can use tariffs as a two-fer to help struggling U.S. steelmakers while punishing Argentina and Brazil for displacing U.S. farm exports to China.” That’s not how markets — or even White Houses — work, the Journal reminded readers. In fact, “He’s wrong on every count.” That unmistakable poke arrived just as the president was, yet again, repositioning his ever-shifting position on a much-awaited U.S.-China trade deal. Well, Trump opined from Europe, “In some ways I like the idea of waiting until after the election for the China deal.” Yes, that election — Nov. 3, 2020, a full growing season from now.

“In some ways I like the idea of waiting until after the election for the China deal.” President Donald Trump

So, where does all this presidential tweaking, tweeting and, according to the Journal, twaddle, leave U.S. farmers and ranchers, Chinese buyers and the U.S. economy? One unlikely comparison captures the essence of the president’s tariff policy and, as he calls it, the “fake news” media, especially his hometown newspaper, the New York Times. First, predictably, U.S. steel tariffs have hit U.S. steelmakers harder than foreign steel exporters. As the Journal noted, U.S. steel prices “have plunged by nearly half since June 2018” and “primary metal manufacturing jobs have fallen by 7,900 since (this) January.” These facts are confirmed in the stock price of U.S. Steel, the nation’s second largest steelmaker. After more than a year of market-guarding tariffs, U.S. Steel shares now hover at $13, up from its 2019 low of $10.14 in mid-October, but still 30% below its Jan. 2 price of $18.51. Clearly, protective steel tariffs have bloodied, not boosted, the American steel sector. As such, why impose the same, wrongheaded policies now on Argentina — a nation that, according the Journal, “makes up less than 1% of U.S. steel imports” — and Brazil, a key ag export

competitor? That wrongness will be amplified by the president’s “wait-until-the-election” plan on any China trade deal. Indeed, in less than 24 hours the White House somehow found the best worst way to ensure that China, Argentina and Brazil become even better trading buddies next year while U.S. farmers and ranchers see more of their markets simply handed over to competitors. And that’s if Mount Tariff doesn’t blow again. If it does, the Chinese-ArgentineBrazilian ag trade triangle could become even more set in concrete. But don’t take it from me; take it from the nation’s leading business newspaper, the Wall Street Journal, the flagship of Rupert Murdoch’s American media empire that includes Fox News. Oh, I nearly forgot, the aforementioned “fake news” comparison: As the U.S. steel industry was losing jobs, markets and value under the tariff regime imposed by the president, one of his toughest media critics, the “fake news” New York Times, was killing it in the market. On Jan. 2, 2019, the Times’ share price was $21.85; its year-to-date high, $35.68 per share, was hit on July 31. Its Dec. 3 price was $31.29, up — so far — in 2019 a whopping 43%. That, too, is an irrefutable market reality; investors pay for solid value, not molten lava. Just ask the miners at the Wall Street Journal.

Agriculture’s climate change contributions, solutions By Harwood D. Schaffer and Daryll E. Ray

In her opening statement during the “Solving the Climate Crisis: Opportunities in Agriculture” hearing, Kathy Castor, the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis chair, said agriculture not only experiences the impacts of the climate crisis — more generally referred to climate change or global warming — it also is “responsible for nearly 10% of the annual greenhouse emissions” in the United States. The hearing was focused on identifying various ways that agriculture could contribute to a reduction in the emissions of greenhouse gases while helping farmers “maintain and increase their profitability.” In the current low-price environment, any contribution that changes in agricultural practices can make to the bottom line through reducing costs and increasing income is a positive for farmers. The four people providing testimony for the hearing were: Jennifer MooreKucera, American Farmland Trust; Fred Yoder, farmer and Solutions from the Land; Tina Owens, Danone North America; and Viral Amin, DTE Energy’s Power and Industrial Group. This column is focused on the testimony of Moore-Kucera. “By promoting climate-smart, regenerative agricultural practices can be a winwin-win. We can ensure our nation’s food security, improve our environment, and enhance economic returns to farmers and ranchers,” Moore-Kucera said. She said the evidence of climate change includes: 20 of the past 22 years have been the hottest on record, more extreme weather events, increased atmospheric

carbon dioxide levels and the increased number and severity of wildfires like those in California in the past several years. Moore-Kucera told the committee that the bulk of agriculture’s contributions of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere come from nitrous oxide, at 53%, and methane, at 46%. Only 1.5% comes carbon dioxide. The nitrous oxide comes from “agricultural soil management — activities such as fertilizer application, growing N-fixing plants — drainage of organic soils and irrigation practices, manure management and field burning of agricultural residues. Nitrous oxide stays in the atmosphere about 114 years and is almost 300 times more efficient at trapping heat than CO2.” Methane contributions to the atmosphere are “primarily from enteric fermentation from livestock and manure management, as well as rice cultivation and field burning of agricultural residues. Methane’s lifetime in the atmosphere is only 12 years, but it is 25 times more efficient at trapping heat than CO2 over a 100-year period.” In addition to contribution to global climate change, agriculture can be a significant part of the solution. The amount of soil carbon in agricultural soils can be increased by minimizing soil disturbance, maximizing soil cover, maximizing the continuous presence of roots in the soil, integration of livestock into the cropping system and diversifying the crop mix and rotations. “If we add up the current and projected future adoption of cover crops with notill or reduced till practices, (the United States) could reduce (greenhouse gas) emission by up to 148.5 MMT (carbon dioxide equivalent) per year,” Moore-

Kucera said. “This translates to approximately 25% of the total ag (greenhouse gas) emissions, and that doesn’t include what can be achieved through the addition of best practices for grazing land management and livestock/manure management. This 148.5 MMT CO2e is equivalent to removing 31.5 million passenger vehicles from the road each year.” With the benefit of a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Farmland Trust conducted a soil-health case study of the “return on investment for healthy soil practices for a variety of crops” by four farmers — one each in California, Illinois, Ohio and New York. “These farmers implemented steps such as no-till, nutrient management, cover crops, compost and mulching. As a result, these farms cut their greenhouse gas emissions by an average of 379% on fields selected for the analysis. This means that these fields transformed from being net emitters to net reducers of greenhouse gases. “These case studies also illustrate the many benefits associated with healthy soil practices. The actions taken by these farmers increased yields and profits, stopped soil erosion problems, and improved water quality.” Though the issue of climate change is a still an open question for some farmers, these case studies suggest that the adoption of healthy soil practices can not only benefit the environment, they can make a significant contribution to a farm’s bottom line. © 2019 Agricultural Policy Analysis Center.
