Letter: ‘Chicken’ Walz afraid to vote for what’s right To the Editor: The old practices are still flourishing in our nation’s capitol. The voters last November said “no” to deficit spending but our elected flock of chickens sneaked their favorite earmarks through again. It is just like an addiction to these chickens — “We will stop deficit Tim Walz spending but we will do it tomorrow. First we have to please our lobbyists.” U.S. Representative Tim Walz, D-Minn., said he didn’t like the spending bill but he voted for it anyway. He said he had no choice. What do you mean you had no choice? First choice, you could have voted no. Second choice, you could have gone half-way with the Bush tax cuts, as you could have gone one year without the unemployment benefits, and dropped the benefits to half the second year, to give the people receiving the benefits some incentive to look for work. I don’t think American taxpayers are going to mind paying taxes if you would find the courage to pay on our debt and then be accountable. You sneak things into big tax bills all the time. Sort of like you don’t want your constituents to know how irresponsible you really are. Someone sneaked funding into the bill for ethanol and biodiesel again. Get the picture people, we have been pouring money down the ethanol drain for 10 years or more. It still can’t stand on its merits. But

no, it continues to drag our country down. As long as the country buys ethanol’s groceries what incentive do they have to learn how to make a profit? The United States hasn’t run out of crude oil. The prob-
lem is the environmentalists own the chickens. So Tim, you didn’t have a choice? I don’t think so. I think you are chicken to vote for what is right. If you go against party lines you lose support and funding come election time, right? Why don’t you run for reelection on your voting record like our representatives used to. Man-up, Tim. A leader is a person who does what is right even when no one is looking. A follower is a simple person. He or she can’t think for themselves. They just do what everyone does — you know, like chickens do. Paul B. Hoffman New Ulm, Minn.
Syngenta Seeds Inc. has released 17 new NK brand soybean products, featuring more varieties with Syngenta’s Aphid Management SystemT. The new varieties, available in trial quantities for the 2011 growing season, provide growers with greater options to maximize yield under a variety of growing conditions and soil types. The 17 new varieties include selections for relative maturities ranging from early 0.2 to late 7.4. Two of the new products are AMS varieties, which is the industry’s first fully integrated option for soybean aphid control. The system combines Syngenta genetics with a trait for resistance to soybean aphids, along with Syngenta Crop Protection and Seedcare products to deliver complete, season-long protection. These products have relative maturities of 1.2 and 1.7 and will expand the AMS offerings to the northern reaches of the aphid problem area.
In addition, the new products deliver outstanding resistance packages to pests including soybean cyst nematode and root knot nematode, as well as excellent tolerance to diseases ranging from phytophthora root rot, sudden death syndrome, iron deficiency chlorosis, frogeye leaf spot, brown stem rot to southern stem canker tolerance. All NK soybeans are available through your local Garst or Golden Harvest dealer or NK Seeds retailer. For more information, log on to www.nksoybeans.com.

Commentary: Krugman flunks food — and history Paul Krugman is a big deal: Princeton professor, New York Times columnist and Nobel laureate (2008). Krugman wrote recently about the “food crisis, the second one to hit the world in the last three years.” His key statement: “what really stands out is the extent to which Dennis Avery severe weather events have disrupted agricultural production. And these severe weather events are exactly the kind of thing we’d expect to see as rising concentrations of greenhouse gases change our climate — which means that the current food prices surge may be just beginning.” What warming? The puny 0.2 degrees Celsius we’ve had since 1940? On food, we’re currently diverting a huge proportion of the world’s crops to biofuels. We’ve created an artificial shortage of the world’s already-scarce cropland. Two years ago, the high food prices were driven by a very high price for oil, so our corn ethanol plants were running full-tilt. World food prices nearly doubled.

Meanwhile, in the Netherlands, the Little Ice Age brought three massive sea floods within a few decades, each of which drowned 100,000 people. The coasts of Europe are lined with huge sand dunes created by hurricanes. Most of these dunes date from the Little Ice Age, not from the Medieval Warming. The peer-reviewed journal Natural Hazards in June 2005, published a special issue on extreme weather events over the last century. It found there is less severe weather as the world warms, with no increase in thunderstorms, hailstorms, tornados, blizzards, Asian monsoons, heat waves or floods. Blogger Jo Nova reports that a recent re-examination of global tropical storms and hurricanes found no trend in the past 30 years. Russia frequently has droughts and Australia has a cycle of flooding. Krugman is trying to frighten us about what’s likely the finest weather humanity has ever seen. Obviously, we’re still getting heat waves, blizzards and some hurricanes — but fewer of them. Nevertheless, you are three times as likely to read about the severe weather we do get — because the media are seeking it out.

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer “Tuned in” to the political challenges of the new Legislative biennium, Dave Frederickson, Minnesota’s new commissioner of agriculture, said, “I think we’ll come out of this with a good program for agriculture. We’ll make Dave Frederickson cuts as needed. It could be difficult at times but people across the state are telling all of us in government, ‘Come on, let’s work together and get this budget issue taken care of.’” Interviewed via cell phone Feb. 18 as he traveled to a “home-grown foods” event at Staples, Frederickson said he was pleased with the governor’s budget recommendation pertaining to agriculture. “He’s very supportive of agriculture and that’s reflective in his budget message to the Legislature.” Frederickson said he already is working closely with Senate ag Chairman Doug Magnus and House ag Chairman Rod Hamilton. “Both are friends of mine since years back. We’ll work together just fine.” The Minnesota Department of Agriculture operates on an $83 million annual budget, of which 54 percent comes from the state’s general fund. Frederickson noted a significant portion of that fund supports special functions such as county fair associations, the Agricultural Utilization Research Institute, as well as the ethanol support program dating back to the mid-1990s when farmers/organizers were struggling to finance the construction of the Minnesota ethanol industry. “The proposal of the governor is to pay off those remaining payments to several of those early ethanol

THE LAND, MARCH 4, 2011
By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Discussing the agronomics of high-yield corn, Jeff Coulter, University of Minnesota Extension corn agronomist, quickly gets to the point: “It all starts with selecting the best hybrids.” Sharing five years of yield data (2006-10) at the Southwest Research and Outreach Center near Lamberton, Minn., — see Table 1 at right — he pointed out the yearly yield difference between the highest yielding hybrid and the lowest yielding hybrid ranged from 73 bushels to 109 bushels per acre. He simply said, “yield differences among hybrids are huge.” “Few management decisions are as important as those made concerning planting,” Coulter said emphasizing that hybrid selection is the critical starting point. He also presented five years of yield data comparing early versus mid- versus full-season hybrids. As expected, there was more yield with longer maturity, but there also was wetter corn with full-season hybrids. Comparing as many as 171 hybrids per year, yields averaged 186 bu./acre for the 95- to 96-day hybrids; 191 bu./acre for 99- to 100-day maturity; 202 bu./acre for 103- to 104-day maturity and 207 bu./acre for 105- to 106-day hybrids.

Results: Are 20-inch rows or twin-row planting “management strategies” that might coax extra yield? • No yield difference between row widths; • Response to plant population similar for both row widths; • On average, yield maximized at 34,300 ppa; • Yield was 7 and 14 percent higher respectively with the 101- and 105-day hybrids compared to the 95-day hybrid. Twin-rows to the rescue? Just barely, based on limited 2010 Minnesota trials at Welcome and Wilmont. The testing compared 22-inch versus 30-inch rows and at three seeding rates: 33,300 seeds/acre; 38,000 seeds/acre; and 43,000 seeds/acre. The hybrid was DKC48-37, a 98-day triple stack. Results: • On average, no yield difference between row widths. • At 43,000 seeds/acre, twin-rows yielded 3 percent more (231 bu. average versus 225 bu.) but at 33,000 and 38,000 seeds/acre twin-rows showed no yield advantage regardless of row width. Coulter concluded, “twin-row interest is out there because growers keep looking at more ways to crank extra yield. But based on results I’ve seen, twin-row corn is a tough sell. You just don’t see consistent benefits.” Plus it requires special planting equipment. Starting with the “best” hybrids is No. 1 in his scenario on the agronomics of going for top yields. His “score card” for evaluating various yield factors: • 59 percent: Hybrid selection (best vs. worst) • 13 percent: Uniform emergence and growth • 6 percent: 97- to 98-day hybrids versus longerseason hybrids • 2 percent: Planting late-April versus mid-May • 2 percent: Uniform in-row plant spacing • 1 percent: Final stand of 34,000 versus 30,000 plants/acre • 1 percent: Narrow rows versus 30-inch rows A starting point for selecting “best hybrids” is the 2010 Minnesota Variety Trials booklet available through county Extension offices or www.maes. umn.edu.

Obviously, not all seed companies participate in plot trials so perhaps a better strategy is doing your own yield checks. Do this and the only bias to contend with is your own.

Best pest management complicated by ‘refuge in the bag’ Traits are the protective umbrella needed in view of the costs of crop production but perhaps we need even more research on genetics to build yield. — Bruce Potter
“And so do we. We can’t do comparison checks on everything in the marketplace. And when it comes to seed treatments we have such a bewildering array of ‘insurance policies’, or are these products looking for a market?” Referring to what he calls “Potter philosophy,” he questions if genetic diversity is being bottlenecked because of the tremendous amount of research and marketing effort that the seed industry is putting into developing an ever-expanding number of specific trait technologies. “Traits are the protective umbrella needed in view of the costs of crop production but perhaps we need even more research on genetics to build yield,” Potter said. Potter spoke at the Feb. 16 annual meeting of the Renville County CornSoybean Growers Association.

unmanageable, especially between companies. To preserve the benefits and insect protection of Bt corn technologies, a grower must have an Insect Resistance Management plan that includes a refuge. Also plant your refuge first before planting any insect-protected corn. This ensures the minimum refuge size requirement is met should adverse weather alter your planting schedule and strategy. An IRM plan is mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. A useful tool is the Insect Resistance Management Calculator available through the National Corn Growers Association.

environment include an aphid-related bug called trochanter mealybug, which apparently loves soybean roots and tends to show up with above-ground symptoms resembling potassium deficiency. Also be on the lookout for what looks like a giant Asian beetle except it’s more likely a brown marmorated stink bug, native to Asia but confirmed in Minnesota last year. These stinky creatures like to enter houses in the fall. Potter also mentioned corn blotch leafminer, another newcomer with a four- to six-week life cycle and three or more generations per year. Soybean aphids were minimal in most areas of Minnesota last year but unpredictable from season to season. Growers have choices of seed-applied insecticides and aphid-resistant varieties, but Potter said growers wonder about what strategy is best.

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer University of Minnesota Extension Pathologist Bruce Potter admitted the challenges of “best” practices for European corn borer and corn rootworm are getting more complicated as more seed companies gear up for “refuge in the bag” marketing. “Probably the easiest way to meet the requirements is to buy all your seed from the same company. But how much fun is that?” Reviewing corn rootworm and corn borer refuge issues, Potter shared the following. • Intent was to ensure Bt susceptible individuals. • Strategies for corn rootworm and European corn borer should be different. • Compliance and logistic problems get challenging. • Refuge in a bag, individual and stacked traits, have different refuge requirements. • Refuge concept is rapidly becoming

Various approaches to help tackle IDC problems By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Discussing iron-deficiency chlorosis trials, Dan Kaiser, University of Minnesota Extension soils specialist, said IDC was less an issue in 2010 soybean fields in Minnesota, perhaps because of moisture and soil temperatures producing less soil activity. “High bicarbonate levels trigger IDC symptoms,” he said. There are various management options to control IDC issues. Kaiser listed these: • Decrease soil lime content • Drain the soil • Plant tolerant varieties • Fertilize with special iron treatments Or consider broadcast seeding oats just ahead of planting, or use commercial products such as Ferraline, Soygreen or Iron 6 percent as special additives at planting time. Kaiser conducted both treatments at
two Renville County locations in 2010 using two Gold Country soybean varieties, GC2717 and FC3517.The 2717 soybean is a high-yielding variety; the 3517 is an IDC-tolerant variety. At one location, neither the oat seeding nor the Soygreen, provided as an in-furrow, 3-pound per acre application produced any extra yield compared to the controls. However, at the second location the field had a low-IDC area, a moderate-IDC area and a high-IDC area. The low-IDC area showed no yield response from the Soygreen treatment and there was no yield difference between the two varieties. In the moderate-IDC area, however, Soygreen produced five bushels more yield and the tolerant variety out-yielded the less-tolerant soybean. In the severe IDC area of this field, oats increased soybean yields on both varieties but there was little or no response from Soygreen. “So it looks like IDC is a field-by-field issue, or if you are GPS equipped and your fields are mapped for IDC scores,

then adding the commercial products can get by an ‘on-the-go’ situation,” Kaiser said. However, until more consistent results can be documented, buying soybean varieties with the highest IDC tolerance scores is a better route. New information on herbicide labels Dave Nicolai, U of M regional Extension educator, shared a new system of herbicide labels which now include a standardized system informing of the product’s mechanism of action. A box labeled “Herbicide Group” is present near the top of the label. The number in the box is the MOA of the active ingredient bases on a system developed by the Weed Science Society of America. Premixes containing more than one mode of action will have multiple numbers listed.
A similar system is also used on labels of insecticides and fungicides. “The intent is to reduce the likelihood of selecting herbicide-resistant weeds. If you are relying largely on herbicides for weed management, using herbicides with different MOAs is the primary method of managing resistance,” Nicolai said. • A Group 2 herbicide would provide little benefit for waterhemp since most waterhemp is resistant to these herbicides. • A Group 15 herbicide would provide little benefit for giant ragweed or other large-seeded broadleaves due to its poor activity on these weeds. Kaiser and Nicolai spoke at the Feb. 16 annual meeting of the Renville County Corn-Soybean Growers Association.
Consider pros, cons, of ground rolling on beans The idea of using land rollers is somewhat novel to row-crop farmers, but alfalfa producers have been rolling fields for decades. Ground roller equipment sales have increased substantially in the past five years, with soybean producers as a major new customer. To answer the question “When is the best time to roll soybeans?” University of Minnesota Extension carried out a three year (2008-10) research project with grant funding from the Minnesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council. We found that, while the rollers were designed to push rocks back into the ground, they were being used for many other reasons and in fields with little to no rocks. Some purposes included residue breakdown, field leveling, managing corn root balls and decreasing operator fatigue by improving crop harvestability. The research took place at 11 locations across western Minnesota over three growing seasons, and included multiple styles of land rollers. Our rolling treatments consisted of 1.) Preplant, 2.) Post-plant, 3.) 50-percent emergence, 4.) First trifoliate stage, 5.) Third trifoliate, and 6.) No rolling. Following the treatments, we collected data on residue decomposition, plant population, percent plant damage, seed protein, oil, moisture, test weight and yield. No significant differences for plant populations, seed oil, protein, moisture or test weight were found. Surprisingly, we did not find significant yield differences based on timing of treatments for
each year of combined locations. We did document significantly more plant damage with the third-trifoliate treatment in two of the four sites in 2010 but did not see yield consequences. With good conditions, rolling can be done out to the third-trifoliate stage. Rolling at or after the third-trifoliate stage cannot be recommended. If the field is subject to erosion, the best time for rolling is pre-plant or post-emergence. The easiest time and most common for farmers is immediately after planting. However, if conditions don’t allow, a producer could roll post-emergence with careful attention to conditions and temperatures. We uncovered no yield advantage or disadvantage with this study, but certain conditions have potential to hurt yield. Advantages for rolling include harvestability, operator ease, residue control/breakdown and cleaner seed at harvest. Disadvantages include the time and fuel for an additional pass across the field, expense of equipment, possible soil crusting/sealing, tractor track damage to emerged plants, susceptibility to wind and water erosion, and breakage of brittle plants.

But they also recondition certain pieces simply because they need some fixing to make them operate the way they’re supposed to operate. “It just depends on how a guy wants to buy a planter.

We quickly noted that most every phone call or e-mail was generated from my internet campaign.” Once they were online for everyone to see, foreign buyers started e-mailing and calling. “It started slowly with just a few overseas inquiries. Then I started to develop relationships with these buyers which led to even more business. At that point, we knew we had something so I decided to take a two-week business trip to Ukraine to meet with local buyers and sellers.” That trip proved to be productive and pushed the export business of Haukos Bros. to a whole new level. “Last year everything came

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer When Willard Haukos started selling tractors, combines and used farm equipment from his farm in the 1950s, little did he realize that farmers from across the globe would one day come knocking on his door. In the early 1980s he switched to combine heads and planters exclusively, figuring there would always be a market for such good used equipment. Willard Haukos died this past year, but his grandson Jerad Huepenbecker, along with Jerad’s father, Wayne, and uncles Kim and Jan Haukos, continue to operate Haukos Bros. Inc. Known as national and international leaders in corn planter and corn head equipment exchanges, their headquarters is located on the north edge of Glencoe, Minn. “We have a unique business,” said the 31-year-old Huepenbecker. “Planters and combine headers are the only products we handle. We buy and sell planters and heads all across America and internationally. We’re quite a bit different from your local John Deere or Case IH dealer who mostly sells new equipment, and mostly sells to local customers.” Diversity is the key word when describing the Haukos Bros. operation. Some headers and planters are sold “as is” meaning without any repairs.

Plus the value of the dollar dropped while crop prices rose. This meant my foreign buyers had money to spend and American products were looking cheaper and cheaper.” How far does used equipment travel from this central Minnesota family business? American farmers still dominate their marketing, but the international market keeps growing, especially in Ukraine. “My biggest overseas market is Ukraine with Canada second and Russia third. China has become a customer but they are not yet a major market for us,” Huepenbecker said. What size equipment? In foreign markets 8-row and 16-row planters make up the majority of overseas sales, but get into the bigger farming regions of Ukraine and 24-row planters are becoming big items too.

HAUKOS, from pg. 20A this means lots of repositioning of planter units before we box them up for overseas shipment.” Every planter gets knocked down into component parts before fitting into shipping containers. “We disassemble each planter. Depending upon the size of the planters, we can get up to six planters per container. Then it’s up to the buyer at the other end to reassemble each unit.” Haukos Bros. is well-known throughout the machinery world so sourcing used planters and corn heads isn’t an issue. Huepenbecker said, “most of the major implement dealers in the U.S. know us. We gets lots of phone calls quizzing us on what particular planters are worth, what are we willing to pay for their planters, etc. “We’re wholesale driven so most implement dealers know that if they want to clean out some planter or corn header inventory we’re a logical outlet. And of course some dealers just don’t want used green equipment sitting on their lot if they’re a Case IH dealer, for example. “Plus we’re moving planters 12 months out of the year so if a dealer gets a June trade-in he’ll often call us because used planters just don’t sell very well in June. We’re always looking for planters because we’re always selling. The same with corn heads and flex heads; we take them any time of the year because with overseas markets, buyers are always in the marketplace.” Online sales Marketing reconditioned planters and corn heads means each piece of equipment has to meet certain specifications. Haukos Bros. employs talented mechanics capable of rebuilding any planter. “Everything sold overseas is sold via the internet so we never see those buyers. But like American farmers, they too want every bit of information about each piece of equipment so we do lots of photo listings,” Huepenbecker said. Today there is a premium market for good equipment regardless the age, regardless the color. Although grateful for the expanding overseas market, Huepenbecker said they could do well just on U.S. sales currently. As you might expect, online sales are now the majority of all transactions of Haukos Bros. Farm magazines and machinery publications were once the vehicle for initiating sales but because the machinery business moves so fast these days, the bulk of their sales today are via the internet. Some farmers, however, still drive to Glencoe for on-site inspections of equipment. The market is strong, especially in January and February for planters. “I’m getting lots of calls from farmers across America and from overseas. So we’re constantly sourcing equipment via e-mail and telephone, plus whatever other device puts us in contact with dealers and/or farmers wanting to move some equipment.” The firm also provides trucking to buyers across America and coordinates container shipments to overseas buyers. The reality is that in this new era of world marketing, a planter put to work on a Minnesota farm two to five years ago, this spring could be planting in another state, or even Russia.

Sesquicentennial farm applications due April 1 Minnesota Farm Bureau’s Sesquicentennial Farm program will honor Minnesota families who have owned their farms for at least 150 years. Since the Sesquicentennial Farm program began in 2008, more than 129 farms have been recognized. The Sesquicentennial Farm program recognizes family farms according to the following qualifications. • The farm must be at least 150 years old this year according to the abstract of title, land patent, original deed, county land records, court file in registration proceedings or other authentic land records. Please do not send originals or copies of records. • Your family must have owned the farm for 150 years or more. “Family” is defined as parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, first cousins and direct inlaws (father, mother, brother, sister, daughter, son-in-law). • Continuous residence on farm is not required, but ownership must be continuous. • The farm should consist of 50 or more acres, and currently be involved in agricultural production. A commemorative certificate signed by the Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation President Kevin Paap, Minnesota Department of Agriculture Commissioner Dave Frederickson and Gov. Mark Dayton will be awarded to qualifying families, along
with an outdoor sign signifying Sesquicentennial Farm recognition. Information on all Sesquicentennial Farm families will be available at the Minnesota Farm Bureau exhibit during the 2011 State Fair, Aug. 25 through Sept. 5. Applications are available by writing Sesquicentennial Farms, Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation, P.O. Box
64370, St. Paul, MN 55164; e-mailing info@fbmn.org or calling (651) 7682100. Applications are also available at www.fbmn.org. Deadline for application is April 1. Previously recognized families should not reapply. Century Farms are not automatically recognized as Sesquicentennial Farms. Families must apply to receive Sesquicentennial Farm recognition.

Iowa’s Century Farm owners to apply Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey encouraged eligible farm owners to apply for the 2011 Century and Heritage Farm Program. The program is sponsored by the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship and the Iowa Farm Bureau and recognizes families who have owned their farm for 100 years in case of Century Farms and 150 years for Heritage Farms. “These awards are an opportunity to recognize the hard work and commitment by these families that is necessary to keep a farm in the same family for 100 or 150 years,” Northey said. “If you consider all the challenges and unexpected obstacles each would have had to overcome during their life on the farm, it gives you a greater appreciation of the dedication and perseverance of these families.” Farm families seeking to qualify for the Century or Heritage Farms Pro-
gram must submit an application no later than June 1. Applications are available on the Department’s website at www.Iowa Agriculture.gov by clicking on the Century Farm or Heritage Farm link under “Hot Topics.” Applications may also be requested from Linda Rosky, coordinator of the Century and Heritage Farm Program via phone at (515) 281-3645, e-mail at Linda.Rosky@IowaAgriculture.gov, or by writing to Century or Heritage Farms Program, Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, Henry A.

Farmers will spend more to produce their 2011 crops but they are likely to make that up — and then some — from higher grain prices, say two Purdue University Extension specialists. Which crops farmers choose to plant this season also will play a factor in the returns they’ll earn, said Craig Dobbins and Bruce Erickson of Purdue’s Department of Agricultural Economics. The numbers suggest a corn-soybean rotation is the best choice, with double-crop soybeans/wheat a good option for those farmers living in areas where that cropping system is viable. “At this point in time, contribution margins — the difference between gross revenue and production costs — are really quite large,” Dobbins said. “If one is looking for a place to expend energy from now until you can get out into the field and plant, I think one ought to focus that energy on protecting the margin that you’ve got in crop production today.” Dobbins, Erickson and fellow Extension specialists in Purdue’s departments of Agricultural Economics, Agronomy and If one is looking Botany and Plant for a place to Pathology expect expend energy ... I farmers to dig think one ought to deeper into their wallets to grow focus that energy corn, soybeans and on protecting the wheat in 2011 than first margin that thought last fall. you’ve got in crop An updated Purdue production today. Crop Cost & Return — Craig Dobbins, Guide outlines those higher cost projections. Purdue ag economist The online resource is available for free download at www.agecon.purdue.edu/extension/pubs. Since October, fertilizer and diesel fuel prices have gone up, while crop insurance premiums are likely headed higher, the economists said. On the flip side, pesticide and grain dryer fuel prices have dipped. It adds up to a per-bushel production cost of $4.19 for rotation corn on average-yielding land, up 30 cents from 2010. The projected cost to produce rotation soybeans this year is $9.73 per bushel on average-quality land, a 33-cent jump from one year ago. Average-quality land is capable of producing 161 bushels per acre of rotation corn and 49 bushels per acre of rotation soybeans. “Fertilizer prices seem to be one of those areas where the cost increases are most noticeable,” Erickson said. “Even though fertilizer prices are up compared to last summer, if you look at them relative to grain prices they’re not terribly out of line.”

Landlords watching estimates closely COSTS, from pg. 23A Farmers can expect to pay $151 per acre to fertilize their rotation corn crop on average land this year. That total represents a $17 increase since the October estimate. Fertilization costs are projected to rise another $7 an acre for rotation soybeans on average land, to $69, compared with earlier estimates. “For a crop like corn that is more energy intensive, we use a lot more fertilizer,” Erickson said. Propane prices have moderated, leading the Purdue specialists to shift their dryer fuel cost projections downward from October. They expect farmers to pay $26 per acre to dry their rotation corn crop from average land, compared with the original $33 estimate. Crop insurance premiums will be set for the year in early March. Dobbins believes they’ll go up. “The premiums one pays on crop insurance get determined, in part, by what the average price is for corn and beans in February,” he said. “The exact cost isn’t going to be known for a couple of weeks yet, but it’s pretty obvious, I think, that the average price for this February is going to be higher than it was last February, which means crop insurance is going to cost significantly more this year than it did last year.” Since the October crop cost guide was issued, perbushel prices are up 74 cents for corn, $1.52 for soybeans and $1.21 for wheat. That kind of upward movement in prices indicates farmers shouldn’t sell crop insurance short, Dobbins said. “We’re in an environment where that’s not a place to think about saving costs this year,” he said. “It’s an issue of finding the policy that you think will work best for you and pay the premium.” Other management implications from the updated crop cost guide include: • Rotation corn and soybeans or corn, soybeans and wheat provide similar returns on lower-yielding land. • Rotation corn and soybeans is the best option on high-yielding land. • Rotation corn and soybeans remain a better costreturn choice than continuous corn. Down the road, the updated crop production estimates are likely to influence the rates farmland owners charge producers to rent their land, Dobbins said. “Landlords can make these calculations on potential returns as easy as tenants can, and many of them see big numbers at the bottom of these calculations,” he said. “So in many areas cash rents are moving up significantly, and so that’s going to be an area that people are likely to see a significant rise in costs, as well.” ••• This article was submitted by the Purdue University Agricultural Communications Department.

Grain Outlook
Livestock Angles
Grain markets Exploding into new ignore falling dollar high ground
Grain Angles Supply-demand picture tight
As we end February, the livestock markets continue their explosive advances into new high ground. Both the cattle and hog futures contracts have advanced into new all-time highs led by the speculative buying of the hedge and index funds. This buying is based on the idea that the supply of cattle and hogs will not meet the demand for meat in the future and the fear of advancing inflation, not the fundamental facts that effect these markets. The cattle market posted new all-time highs in the last full week in February as cash reached $113 per hundredweight live basis the Midwest and $184/cwt. JOE TEALE dressed basis the Midwest. This Broker action has led everyone to believe Great Plains Commodity that numbers are tight and Afton demand is strong. However, the reason packers can aggressively purchase cattle is the fact that the futures allow them to acquire the inventory and immediately hedge that inventory on the futures market and lock-in their margin. This is accomplished because of the excessive premiums provided by the futures market. If one were to look at the recent U.S. Department of Agriculture Cattle on Feed Report released Feb. 18, the number of cattle on feed was 5 percent greater than a year ago while placements were 4 percent greater than the previous year and marketing was only 1 percent greater than last year. Couple this with the USDA Cold Storage Report that indicated an increase in beef supplies over the previous month and the supply seems to be adequate to meet the declining demand.
On Feb. 25, the U.S. Department of Agriculture held its Outlook Forum, where they bring together many of the “movers and shakers” around agriculture. The outlook was bullish on grain prices, yet concern was voiced regarding livestock production. It was reported that the subject of the unrest in northern Africa and the Middle East was not discussed. The events coming from this region had the effect of “throwing gasoline on the fire” of price volatility. The USDA Outlook Forum forecasts corn plantings at 92 million acres, trend yield of 161.7 bushels per acre, a crop of 13.73 billion bushels. The USDA sees a 50-million-bushel increase in TOM NEHER corn used to produce ethanol, to AgStar VP Agribusiness 5.0 billion bushels. This would & Grain Specialist lead to a carryover of 865 million Rochester bushels and stocks-to-use ratio of 6.4 percent. The average on-farm cash price is estimated to be $5.60 per bushel. Soybean plantings were estimated at 78 million acres, including acres that would result from “double cropping.” The USDA is estimating a crop of 3.345 billion bushels and a small cut in usage. This would lead to a carryover of 160 million bushels and stocks-to-use ratio of 4.8 percent. The average onfarm cash price is estimated to be $13 per bushel. The USDA estimated that 57 million acres would be planted to wheat and a crop of 2.080 billion bushels. They expect exports to be down 150 million bushels and a carryover of 663 million bushels. The average onfarm cash price is estimated to be a record $7.50. Fundamentally, things have not changed; we will

The following market analysis is for the week ending Feb. 25. CORN — Last week’s caution that pullbacks can be extreme and overdone was borne out this week with a limit-down session as we returned from the Presidents’ Day weekend. Corn, soybeans and wheat in Chicago and Kansas City all locked limit down on Tuesday, extended those losses on Wednesday, before spending the balance of the week retracing their losses. Prior to plummeting limit lower, May corn set a new contract high at $7.44 1/4 per bushel; PHYLLIS NYSTROM resulting in a weekly trading Country Hedging range of 76 3/4 from $7.44 1/4 to St. Paul $6.77 1/2 per bushel. Grain markets largely ignored the U.S. dollar as it fell back to early February levels. Energy markets, which soared to highs not seen since September 2008 on Middle East and North African turmoil, are thought to have influenced the sell-off in grain as money left grain to finance energy trades. Fund selling then hit the markets hard and buying dried up, extending losses until end-user buying was enticed back into the market. Energy markets were on fire as turmoil escalated in Libya and President Moammar Gadhafi vowed to fight “until the last drop of blood” to keep his hold over the country. Saudi Arabia has said they will make up any shortfall in supply caused by cutbacks in Libya. Libya was producing 1.6 million barrels per day, but is esti-

South American production estimates continue to rise NYSTROM, from pg. 25A mated to be down 1 million bpd due to the chaos. Saudi Arabia has an estimated 5 million bpd of spare capacity to help fill any gaps in supply. Crude oil traded as high as $103.41 before settling at $97.88, $8.17 higher for the week. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Outlook Conference was held this week and gave us our first look at 2011-12 acreage forecasts. For the eight major crops they are predicting an overall increase of 9.8 million acres over last year. For corn, this year’s acreage is pegged at 92 million acres, up 3.8 million acres from last year. Snug ending stocks for 2011-12 of 865 million bushels don’t leave any room for miscues with this year’s coming crop. This week’s export sales report was impressive at 59 million bushels, pushing this year’s sales 5 percent higher than last year. Total sales are only forecast to increase 1.8 percent according to the latest USDA figures. These sales were made prior to this week’s drop. While expected, the House’s decision to not direct any funds for E15 pump reconfiguration was another negative factor early in the week. Weekly ethanol production was down for the fourth week in a row, but it is still on pace to achieve the current USDA corn for ethanol projection of 4.95 billion bushels. OUTLOOK: This week’s price action reinforced how quickly and to what extent price direction can change. May corn this week closed 1 3/4 cents higher at $7.22 after experiencing the nearly 77cent range for the week.

The December corn contract was not able to recover all of the early week losses, closing down 10 3/4 cents at $6.01 3/4 per bushel. Prices may be held within this week’s range as we set our eyes on the March 31 Prospective Planting and Grain Stocks reports. The trend is higher, but players may be more cautious. SOYBEANS — Soybeans continued their fall from grace with a limit-lower session as we started off the week, but by Friday they had reversed direction and actually touched limit up. For the week, May soybeans were down 6 cents after trading a $1.03 range during the week. They settled at $13.75. The November contract was down 12 1/2 cents for the week at $13.29 1/2 per bushel. Talk last week that China was considering lowering import taxes on soybeans and soybean oil proved unfounded. Chinese officials said it was unlikely to occur and this helped slam the markets lower. Fund selling then piled on to extend the downside to levels not seen in a nearby bean contract since December before buyers once again found value and returned to the market. The USDA’s Outlook Conference figures held no surprises indicating 78 million acres for 2011-12 soybeans, up from 77.4 million acres this year. Carryout is forecast at 160 million bushels versus the 140 mil-

lion number for this year. South American production estimates continue to rise. The BA Grain Exchange bumped up their bean production number for Argentina from 47 million metric tons to 48.8 mmt. Ideas for Brazil’s production are in the 70 mmt to 72 mmt range. Brazil’s bean harvest should be approaching 18 percent complete versus 27 percent last year. U.S. soybean export sales were at least not negative this week at 5 million bushels and keeping 10 percent ahead of last year. Total sales this year are predicted to be 6 percent higher than last year. The U.S. Census Bureau this week announced plans to stop publishing estimates of U.S. meal and bean oil production, plus how much bean oil is being used to produce biodiesel, after the August report. Budget considerations were cited as the reasoning behind the decision. OUTLOOK: With China slowing down/canceling purchases from the United States and improving crop prospects in South America, soybeans are under pressure. However, soybeans will need to fight for acres with corn and cotton this spring, so expect volatility to continue. This was counter to the weakness in the U.S. dollar this week. Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the week ending February 25: Minneapolis May wheat down 38 cents, Kansas City 41 3/4 cents lower and Chicago off 44 1/2 cents. April crude oil soared $8.17 to $97.88, heating oil and gasoline each up about 22 cents, and natural gas up a dime. As of late afternoon Friday, the Dow was down 252 points for the week, the U.S. dollar index down 0.37 points, and gold $20.70 per ounce higher.
Hog futures carrying large premiums TEALE, from pg. 25A With the beef cutout over $170/cwt., the movement of boxed beef continues to decline, indicating a reluctance by the retailers to purchase the higher priced beef. This would be an indication that the consumer is not very interested in the higher cost at the retail level. Export business has improved but not nearly enough to offset the decline in domestic consumption as evidenced by the increase in cooler stocks. Therefore, producers should be completely aware that demand will dictate the future price direction in the market and should consider some protection against any adverse price movement. The hog market has followed a similar pattern that the cattle have followed. Speculative buying on the idea that export business will deplete the numbers of hogs available for domestic consumption. This is based to some degree on the announcement that South Korea will drop their import tariffs on pork and once again allow U.S. pork to be imported into the country. The interesting fact was the recent USDA Cold Storage Report indicating that the amount of pork in
cold storage increased last month. So if we are exporting more pork then there must be a decline in domestic consumption if we are to believe that numbers of hogs are on the decline. The fact that pork cutouts have moved above $90/cwt. and the movement of pork product has declined indicates a reluctance by the domestic retailer that there is some resistance to the higher prices by the public. As with cattle futures, the hog futures are carrying extremely large premiums. These premiums are based on the same idea that the hog herd is in decline and will not be enough to meet the demand of an expanding export market. These premiums provide the producers an opportunity to protect their spring and summer inventories against any adverse price movement. Considering the deteriorating economic conditions, and the speculation in the marketplace based solely on supply concerns, there is one element that has been totally forgotten. That is the fact that demand will dictate the price. Fear is currently driving the markets and these types of markets never last. The old adage of “the cure for high prices is high prices” will eventually prevail.

THE LAND, MARCH 4, 2011
Gary Hachfeld, a regional Extension educator for Farm Business Management in Mankato, recently shared that some crop insurance options have been renamed and rearranged for 2011. What we used to think about as the old multi-peril insurance is now Yield Protection. The Crop Revenue Coverage and Revenue Assurance-Harvest Price Option are now combined in Revenue Protection. A third choice is Revenue Protection with Harvest Price Exclusion. There is still a Group Rick Plan option that is based on countywide yields rather than yields on the farm itself. There are still Adjusted Gross Revenue insurance programs that are based on whole farm revenue including crops and livestock. There are still crop insurance choices about how crop land is insured by “units.” The choices are different for some crops. For corn and soybeans this includes: Basic Unit: A basic unit includes all of your insurable acreage for a crop in the same county base on the share rent or ownership arrangements. This provides some premium discounts. Optional Unit: If a crop is grown in two or more different sections, with certain record keeping requirements and other criteria, the crop in each section could be insured separately. This usually carries a higher premium. Enterprise Units: Generally combines all the insured crop acreage for the same crop in the same county. There are some premium discounts. Whole Farm Unit: Generally includes all the insured crops in the county that are covered by the

Yet, the events in northern Africa and the Middle East have reminded us of the fact that we are in a global market and that the threat of a disruption in the oil supply impacts the world economy. I was watching the news the other night about the conflict in Libya and my telephone rang. It was my brother and he asked me what I thought about the Libyan leader killing his own people with mercenaries and air attacks. I paused for a moment, feeling a vague sense of dread and I asked him if this was the birth of a “Baby Black Swan.” He then replied,“We will have to see if this one grows up.” Making marketing decisions in this volatile environment can become emotionally challenging. Using the margin management approach to making marketing decisions rather than trying to guess where prices will trade; helps to take some of the emotion out of executing marketing plans. I can still hear my Grandpa telling me that “If you are going to do this year, what you should have done last year; you will most likely be wrong.” He was never a man who was afraid of “marching to the beat of a different drummer.” When we think back to when we should have sold last year’s crop to receive the highest price; let us remember this grain angle as we sell next year’s crop.

Thirteen cars of block and 10 of barrel traded hands on the week. National Agricultural Statistics Service-surveyed block averaged $1.7850, up 13.3 cents, while the barrels averaged $1.8088, up 11.1 cents. Butter closed at $2.02, up 1.5 cents on the week and 60.5 cents above a year ago. Seven cars were sold. NASS butter averaged $2.0792, down 0.7 cent.

The lagging NASS price averaged $1.3938, up 3.2 cents, and dry whey averaged 43.50 cents, up 1.5 cents. “Cows, cows, and more cows” is what the January Milk Production report said to Ledman, but she said we got a sneak preview in the USDA’s latest Cattle report released in late-January. It indicated higher cow numbers than previously thought by the USDA and “that has definitely come to fruition.” “We added 16,000 head in December versus November,” Ledman said. “We added another 16,000 in January and given that we have 85,200 heifers that are more than 500 pounds that are expected to calve this year, I think we’re going to see those cow numbers grow through the first half of the year. This is the highest gain in milk cow numbers in a month since January of 2008.” She added that culling has been strong and the mailbox milk price in February was “nothing to write home about” so she believes dairy producers supplemented their income with culling.

MILC payments for January, February may be it Speaking of cheese, the Cooperatives Working Together program announced acceptance this week of 10 requests for export assistance from Darigold, Dairy farmers of America and Foremost Farms to sell just under 1.5 million pounds of Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese to customers in Europe, the Middle East, Central America and Asia. The product will be delivered through May. ■ Dairy producers will see Milk Income Loss Contract payments for January and February but that’s likely it for the fiscal year which ends in September. The National Milk Producers Federation’s Roger Cryan said that the January rate should be 11 to 12 cents per hundredweight and February’s will be about 20 to 40 cents, depending on the USDA’s corn, soybean and alfalfa estimates. He does not project any MILC payments ahead, partly because milk prices overall are projected higher, Cryan said. The average all-milk price in 2010 could be the highest ever, he said, possibly even higher than 2007. It’s also because the MILC payment is based on the Class I price in Boston which futures markets say will be high all year.
He reminded that the Class I price is the “higher of” the Class III cheese milk prices or the Class IV butter-powder milk prices so “when the Class III price is projected to be as much as $3 lower than the Class IV some months, tight margins in some markets won’t necessarily be protected by the MILC program.” Some of the margins could be tight, he said, because feed costs could reach record highs hit in 2008. Futures showed corn close to $7 per bushel, Cryan said, soybean meal has already gone over $3.50 per ton, and hay prices are rising too. The MILC program is permanent but current formulas are adjusted down at the end of August 2012. The feed cost adjusters are reduced and the calculation for the base rate is reduced. Cryan’s MILC projections are regularly updated and are posted at www.dairyline.com. ■ The feed budget could get a break on at least one important commodity, namely cottonseed. Tom Wedegaertner, of Cotton Inc., said cotton prices are “real high,” and has encouraged growers to add acres. He anticipates a million and a half to two million more, “so we’ll see plentiful

cottonseed supplies this fall.” He adds that cottonseed is “holding its own” when compared to highpriced corn and soybeans so “it’s still a good buy but I think it’s going to be an even better buy this fall.” When asked why cotton acreage wasn’t being reduced in favor of corn, Wedegaertner said, “surprisingly even though we have $7 corn, cotton is sitting near $2/lb. It typically sells for 60 cents a pound so cotton lint has quadrupled almost in price and a lot of these growers in the south who have wanted to grow cotton as a rotation crop will grow cotton this year.” “Corn and soybeans are high,” he said, “but cotton is higher so there’ll be a lot of cotton acres coming in as a normal rotation to clean up the weeds and the bugs. They (growers) like to rotate cotton and soybeans and peanuts and that sort of thing.” For more information, log on to www.wholecottonseed.com. ■ One of the recommendations from the USDA’s Dairy Industry Advisory Committee asks the USDA to research what impact establishing higher national total solids standards in fluid milk would have on milk consumption,

Clearly they’re making room for these heifers to come into the milking herd but much of this culling is also due to profitability and the need for cash flow.” The supply-demand fundamentals suggest we slow down, she said. “We’re really taking ourselves out of the export market and that’s been so critical for commercial disappearance in 2010.” ■ Checking the cupboard, January butter stocks totaled 118.9 million pounds, up 37.2 million pounds or 46 percent from December but 49.2 million pounds or 29 percent below January 2011, according to preliminary data in the USDA’s latest Cold Storage report. The January American cheese inventory, at 639 million pounds, was up 8.2 million pounds, or 1 percent from December, and 50.8 million pounds or 9 percent above a year ago, and total cheese stocks amounted to 1.051 billion pounds, unchanged from December, but 70.1 million pounds or 7 percent above a year ago. Revisions added 21.7 million more pounds to December holdings. ■

Natzke: What is consumer impact of fortifying fluid milk? DAIRYLINE, from pg. 29A prices and farm income. Dairy Profit Weekly’s Dave Natzke pointed out that we all know milk contains water, butterfat and nonfat solids, made up of protein, lactose and minerals but the percentage content of each of those can vary by the breed of cow, season, diet and region. The nutritional content can be enhanced by taking out fat, or adding more nonfat solids. Current national standards set the minimum composition of fluid milk at 8.25 percent nonfat solids. In California, however, the standards are higher, from 8.7 percent for whole milk, up to 11 percent for low-fat milk. That means some fluid milk must be fortified with nonfat dry milk to reach the higher solids standards. One of the questions, Natzke said, is “what impact fortifying fluid milk with extra solids throughout the United States would have on consumers?” A recent study, commissioned by the California Milk Advisory Board, suggests consumers would prefer fortified milk, and may be willing to pay more for it. The study was conducted among 900 consumers in six U.S. cities, and involved taste tests of whole milk, 2 percent milk, 1 percent milk and nonfat milk. According to the report, a small percent of consumers (44 percent com-
pared to 42 percent) preferred the taste of nutritionally fortified milk over milk produced at current federal standards. About 14 percent indicated no preference, he said. Ratings for flavor, color, thickness, texture and overall quality were similar, with a slight rating advantage to the milk produced at California standards. When nutrition was a factor, about 86 percent said they would select the higher solids milk if offered a choice, and they would be willing to pay an average of $1.74 more per gallon to get it. Next week Natzke will look at how mandating higher solids nationally would impact dairy farmers and nonfat dry milk markets. ■ Dairy Management Inc.’s Joe Bavido completed his series looking at the major accomplishments of the dairy checkoff in 2010. He began with the dairy crisis preparation program, one which I personally participated in. Bavido said the checkoff has an issues management and crisis preparation system in place and includes an industry-wide network that helps address information in the marketplace. It also led three regional crisis drills that engaged many sectors of the industry which focused on hypothetical situations ranging from animal disease
outbreaks to intentional tampering of dairy products. “These systems are in place,” Bavido said, “and while we hope that we never have to use them, we are confident that if something does come about we can ensure that consumers will have the utmost confidence in dairy products.” Milk quality and safety in 2010 and the nutritional benefits of chocolate milk were other issues that the checkoff addressed, he said. For more information about any producer-funded program, log on to www.dairycheckoff.com. ■ Last week we discussed the growing awareness and concern among consumers over how food is produced and that includes on-farm practices and spotlighted our recent DairyLine web poll which seems to indicate that this may not be regarded as high a priority to farmers as it should be. Pennsylvania dairy producer John Ligo, 2010 Beef Quality Award winner, emphasized how important this is to him and all farmers. Consumers need to know and believe in the products that they buy at the grocery store, he said. Animal welfare and food safety is part of that overall package and Ligo said it starts with good record keeping. He said that his records showed him that the involuntary cull rate on his dairy cows was as high as 40 percent. The records helped him determine that mastitis and lameness were two of the biggest issues and thus they were
MARKETING
able to take steps to directly reduce the incidences they were seeing and now his cull rate is under 30 percent. The cattle injection site is another big issue, Ligo said, and requires protocol, “so they leave as little damage as possible.” Injections are always given in the neck triangle, he said, to “minimize the damage to the saleable meat and it seems to minimize the trauma to the cow.” Protocols mean you have to read the labels, Libo said, because different drugs have different withholding periods, depending on the manufacturer, and some drugs have a vastly different meat withhold than a milk withhold. “We have to keep that in mind and there again it goes back to the record keeping,” he said. All of these pointers are taught in the BQA program which clearly demonstrate the whys of proper injection sites on cattle, he said, and is why he so highly recommends his fellow dairy producers take the program. The BQA is funded in part by the Beef Checkoff.

“Where Farm and Family Meet”
Many farm families believe that farm business transition and personal estate planning is not for people like them, or that it’s too time-consuming, expensive and complicated. Farm families do, in fact, need to plan ahead to protect their farm business. University of Minnesota Extension recently surveyed farm and ranch families in Minnesota, North Dakota, Iowa and Wisconsin. The 3,605 family members representing 1,706 farm and ranch businesses in the survey had attended an Extension business transition and personal estate planning workshop. Almost 85 percent of respondents did not have a farm or ranch business transition plan. Almost 70 percent of the respondents did not have a personal estate plan. That means there is no orderly plan in place for the transition of their business and personal assets to the next generation. Research shows that about 1 percent of all estates in the United States pay any estate tax. Many of those estates represent the very wealthy; however, another group that ends up paying estate taxes is the folks who do no planning or who do poor planning. Although tax issues are a big incentive for many to begin planning for the future, there are other reasons why farm families need to plan for protecting their business and personal assets. One person wrote to me to tell me that his family was prompted to put together a farm business transition plan and succession plan after attending an Extension workshop. Six months after getting the plans in place, his brother was killed in a farm accident. His brother was the majority owner of the farm. Having a plan in place saved his family business from potential chaos. Such an event can change your business, your personal life and your family’s future. Begin planning now in order to protect your farm legacy. Find a competent professional team and start planning today to protect your farm business.

acidic soil for better results. I’d be open to any blueberry growing advice from experienced gardeners. Please give me some tips on growing asparagus. Once you have planted asparagus, and even the first year of growth, as soon as the snow has melted, apply some Culligan salt or pickling salt on these plants. Put a second application of salt on the asparagus bed, perhaps the first week of April, or before any new growth is appearing. For new gardeners, the asparagus seeds can be planted at about a 1/2inch depth. Every year as my tulips and daffodils are emerging, the rabbits eat off the emerging leaves. What can I do to solve this problem? Putting chicken wire around these is the best cure. Hopefully once the growth is taller the rabbits will leave these alone. Last year my tea roses didn’t blossom, yet there were plenty of
canes growing. What is the problem? You have mainly all suckers and these will not flower. You should dig these up and replace them with new plants. Another way of checking these extra canes, is that they chances are taller with a different type of green color. As for the roses which have no suckers, these can be pruned back once the leaves begin to appear. In recent years I can’t get my radishes to grow and produce. What am I doing wrong? You could have planted old seed. You may just need to try a different variety. This happened with our planted radishes, but changing to a different variety, we had an excellent crop. ••• Hank Wessels is a Master Gardener in Watonwan County.

tant not to bring a female dog that is in heat to a dog park, this will result in having to deal with the constant bother of male dogs, and even worse an unexpected litter of puppies. When fights break out in public areas between dogs, usually it involves male dogs that like to display their dominance. Even if a dog is well-trained and able to run off of the leash, it is always good to have a leash handy. Getting exercise is key to a dog’s health, so running around with them on a leash or playing fetch with them off of a leash are both rewarding forms of play. Visiting a dog park can be an exciting and interactive practice for a dog as well as the owner. As long as owners are courteous and aware of their surroundings and the potential problems that can arise, more time spent with a pet is always a positive thing. ••• Pet Talk is a service of the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, Texas A&M University.

dog-to-dog is fleas. So having a dog on a flea and heart worm preventative is another good step to take. Socializing dogs with other dogs and other people is one perk that dog parks have. However, if a dog is not accustomed to being around other dogs and people, it might be a good idea to try socializing them with another dog that the owner is familiar with. It is possible for a dog to do well around a couple of other dogs but then feel overwhelmed in a dog park setting with 20 other dogs. “The most critical period for socializing a dog occurs within the first eight to 12 weeks of their life, this is a good time to expose them to different people and types of animals in order to help avoid any anxiety or behavior problems in the future,” Stickney said. Stickney said this is almost a double-edged sword because it is good to socialize a dog at a young age; however, this is also when their immune systems are not the strongest and owners want to be careful to whom they expose them. “I like to take my puppy everywhere with me, and to go visit my neighbor’s friendly dog often, but I am not going to turn him loose at a park with many different dogs that I do not know,” Stickney said. Also, some dogs simply are not social creatures and are not comfortable around a lot of attention. If a dog appears skittish or afraid in unfamiliar settings or frequently rolls over in a submissive position when other dogs approach it, then chances are it will not enjoy a trip to the dog park. When dogs interact with each other for the first time in a park, it can be a stressful moment if one is unsure of the response that will occur. It is impor-
THE LAND, MARCH 4, 2011
The concept behind public dog parks is an exciting one for dogs and owners alike, where fresh air and playfulness are plentiful. Because public dog parks are accessible by anyone, each trip proves to be a different experience, hosting a range of different interactions for a pet. Visiting a park is a social activity, and unlike their owners, dogs do not always know how to behave accordingly. While this should be a fun and exciting experience for the dog, owners should try to enforce proper behavior skills in their furry friend, while maintaining proper park etiquette themselves. Always remember to pick up after your dog when they use the restroom; most parks supply dog waste bags and designate trash cans for this purpose. One health risk that comes along with visiting a dog park, is the amount of waste from different dogs that your pet is exposed to. “One disease that animals can catch from drinking standing water that has been exposed to animal waste is leptospirosis,” said Mark Stickney, clinical assistant professor at Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences. Stickney explains that dogs can be vaccinated for this disease, and recommends that any dogs visiting a dog park on a regular basis to stay current with this vaccination. Gastrointestinal parasites such as hook worms, round worms and whip worms also pose a threat to any dog that is exposed to another dog’s feces. “Dogs like to sniff each others’ noses and rear-ends, so if a dog has any type of respiratory disease, signs of coughing, eye discharge or nasal discharge then that is not the time to bring them to the park,” Stickney said. Another common problem that is transmitted from

War II Corrie and her family secretly housed Jews in their home. When the Nazis discovered their activities, Corrie and her sister Betsie were sent to Ravensbruck, a German death camp. Within that camp Corrie experienced gut-wrenching horrors, including watching her sister die. After the war she returned to Germany to share her story and testify to God’s amazing grace. In her book, “Tramp for the Lord”, she wrote, “It was 1947, and I’d come from Holland to defeated Germany with the message that God forgives.” She told her listeners that when they confess their sins “God casts them into the deepest ocean, gone forever. And even though I cannot find a Scripture for it, I believe God then places a sign out there that says, ‘NO FISHING ALLOWED’.” At the conclusion of her message a man made his way forward to the stage to greet her. As he walked toward her she recognized him. He was a guard from Ravensbruck. She remembered the shame of walking naked past this man. She recalled his cruel words and actions and her blood froze. He held out his hand in front of her and said, “A fine message Fraulein! How good it is to know that, as you say, all our sins are at the bottom of the sea!” It was a pivotal moment for Corrie. As he spoke about how he was a guard at Ravensbruck who was now a Christian, forgiven by God, she needed to make a choice: Would she forgive this man, too? Corrie wrote, “It could have been many seconds that he stood there — hand held out — but to me it seemed hours as I wrestled with the most difficult thing I had ever had to do. I stood there with coldness clutching my heart. But forgiveness is not an emotion — I knew that too. Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the See PORCH, pg. 37A

PORCH, from pg. 36A temperature of the heart.” With a silent prayer to Jesus for His help to raise her hand, she did, woodenly, mechanically, and a miracle took place. “The current started in my shoulder, raced down my arm, sprang into our joined hands. And then this healing warmth seemed to flood my whole being, bringing tears to my eyes,” Corrie said. “I told him, ‘I forgive you, brother! With all my heart!’” Offering forgiveness is not always easy, but it is the most freeing, burden-lifting, relationship-healing choice we can make. Jay Adams said, “When a person forgives another, he is promising to do three things about the intended wrongdoing: not to use it against the wrongdoer in the future; not to talk about it to others; and not to dwell on it himself.” That’s wise advice for high school bullies, grumpy old men and yes, women, too. ••• Lenae Bulthuis is a wife, mom and friend who muses from her back porch on a Minnesota grain and livestock farm.

Quarantine to protect Minnesota’s walnut trees Prevents import of walnut trees, wood from states infested with thousand cankers disease Minnesota Agriculture Commissioner Dave Frederickson recently moved to protect the state’s 6 million eastern black walnut trees and the state’s walnut timber producers by issuing a temporary exterior quarantine restricting the import of walnut trees and certain related products into Minnesota from
areas known to be infested with thousand cankers disease. TCD is caused by a fungus carried by a tree pest called the walnut twig beetle. The beetle attacks the walnut tree, introducing the fungus while it tunnels under the bark. This results in small cankers, or dead areas, under the bark. As more beetles attack the tree, these cankers grow together and cut off the tree’s circulation. This ultimately kills

the tree. To date, TCD has been found in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, New Mexico, Oregon, Tennessee, Washington and Utah. The MDA quarantine restricts movement of products potentially harboring TCD from those states and from other potentially infested areas into Minnesota. The list of walnut products covered by the quarantine includes live walnut trees, walnut logs, walnut lumber, walnut firewood, walnut nursery stock, wood chips and mulch made from walnut wood, walnut branches and roots, and packaging materials made from walnut wood. The quarantine does not apply to walnut nuts, nutmeat, walnut hulls, finished products made from walnut wood without bark, or processed lumber that is 100 percent bark-free, and kiln-dried with square edges. “By taking this action, we will help protect a valuable part of our economy and our environment from needless damage,” Frederickson said. “This targeted quaran-
tine will help prevent the loss of millions of trees and avoid damage to a valuable segment of our state’s forestry industry.” The black walnut tree is an important tree for Minnesota’s environment and economy. The tree is a natural part of the southeastern Minnesota landscape, and it is highly valued for its wood. Every year, Minnesota harvests up to 2 million board feet of black walnut for use in products such as furniture and musical instruments. The MDA has the statutory authority to issue quarantines excluding harmful plant pests. The TCD quarantine was implemented with input from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and the U.S. Forest Service. More information about TCD and the quarantine can be found on MDA’s website at www.mda.state.mn.us. ••• This article was submitted by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture.

t. Urho’s Day celebrations, which are held in communiS ties in the United States and Finland, are scandalous affairs that should be avoided by patriots and Christians alike. Although Urho — allegedly the only Lutheran saint — is said to be celebrated in Finland, Minn., by a modest cooking contest in a church, anthropologists say they do not yet know what transpires in the spruce bogs east of the northeastern Minnesota village on March 16, Urho’s feast day. Reports from Menahga, a town somewhat more accessible to civilized Minnesotans, say that at sunrise on March 16 women and children, clothed in green and purple, chant from frozen lakeshores “Heinasirkka, Heinasirkka, Menetaalta Hiiteen” while facing the sun. Those familiar with the ancient Finnish tongue say this probably means “grasshopper, grasshopper, go away.” Of course, when the grasshoppers hear this they promptly leave. These are the very words Urho, a lowly grape harvester, bellowed to chase the ravaging grasshoppers from the preglacial vineyards of the land now known as Finland. Finns know this, they claim, because the story was discovered carved in runes on the thighbones of a now extinct mammoth bear. Urho, they say, expelled the insects solely with the power of his voice. His voice was strengthened by foods savored by Finns to this day — curdled milk and fish head stew. Urho also skewered some of the bugs with a tool later adapted by ice fishermen for spearing northern pike. Anyway, reports from the far north say that men, women and innocent children celebrate these dubious events and the unlikely sainthood of a lowly proto-Lutheran working man. When the colorfully clad women and children chant, men clothed in green come out of the snowy forest kicking and hopping like wounded grasshoppers. Then they remove their green and put on royal purple costumes. This changing of clothes is referred to as the changing of the guard; these unpatriotic colors are the national colors of Finland. Following the Finnish fashion show it is unclear what happens next in Menahga, or other villages. There may be a round of golf on an icy lake, consumption of purple beer, planting of donuts, possibly a parade, a talent show and the coronation of village royalty. If you are curious about these rites but want to keep your children safe, there is a St. Urho shrine, just outside of Menahga, on U.S. Highway 71.
