Today, with the help of more than $4 billion in loans from Brazil’s national development bank, BNDES, “25 percent of the worldwide trade in beef comes from JBS,” the firm’s boss told the Washington Post in mid-April.

That means, according to the Post, JBS is a “$40 billion behemoth that slaughters 90,000 head of cattle a day, employees 125,000 workers and exports to 150 countries. In the U.S. alone, it employs 75,000 ... and is projecting revenues of $28 billion this year.”

Cover story: Three crops, two seasons, one good idea

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer They say that corn is king, soybeans are gold and wheat is wonderful.

However, based on work being done by research geneticists and agronomists around the country, the landscape of North America may gradually do some changing.

One of the big drivers in the changing scenario of American crop production is the Agricultural Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Terry Isbell at the Peoria, Ill., facility of ARS-USDA, notes seven different crops. Some fit Midwest climates, others work on the West Coast, while some are better suited for arid southwestern states. But all are oil-producing crops geared for enriching nutritional values of human foods and livestock feeds, improving moisturizing values for cosmetics, adding lubricity to engine lubes and lowering cholesterol in snack foods.

Perhaps most important in this day of escalating land costs is that some of these “new opportunity” crops provide the option of three crops in two years.

A good example is pennycress.

“Pennycress has some future,” Isbell said.

“Because it’s a winter annual we’re doing fall seeding in corn stubble, then spring combining just ahead of soybean planting. That’s how you squeeze three crops into two seasons.”

As a potential new biofuels crop, pennycress has produced up to 2,200 pounds per acre in plot trials at the Peoria station. “We’re researching different seeds to build better yields,” Isbell said. “Pennycress runs about 36 percent oil in the feed, grows 30 to 36 inches tall and produces about 100 gallons of oil per acre based on that 2,000-pound yield.”

What’s the big advantage of pennycress? It grows off-season so it’s not impacting food production plus

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer What’s the major difference between agriculture in the United States and that in Brazil? According to native Brazilian Mario Cava, the answer is highways.

“In my country, our farmers are not so concerned about the highway network. Their concern is getting their soybean crop planted, harvested and sold,” said Cava at the recent Water and Agriculture in the 21st Century conference at the University of Minnesota, St. Paul camIn my country ... pus. “Getting it to market is the respon(our farmers’) sibility of the concern is getbuyer.

— Mario Cava MAST is an international educational exchange program providing opportunities in agriculture, horticulture and related fields. Started in 1949 with the first “student” exchange between Minnesota and Sweden, more than 6,000 young people from more than 65 countries have participated in the program.

He returns to Brazil this summer after a year of experiences in the United States, including working last year on a North Dakota wheat, soybeans and corn farm. This winter and spring he attended several University of Minnesota classes while also participating in a soybean management program. In Brazil he studied agronomy with an emphasis on green crops and environmental resources.

“When I get back home my intentions are to work more with renewable energy crops like soybeans, corn and sugar cane,” Cava said. “Biomass crops are definitely getting more commonplace because more of our Brazilian farmers are becoming aware of the need for more energy, and agriculture will be a major provider.”

He said that agriculture in Brazil, much like in America, is becoming an exciting profession.

“New ideas, new technology in machinery and new markets for our crops is creating lots of economic activity among our farmers,” Cava said. “They are excited about being farmers.”

The young Brazilian agriculturist said, “the government helps the U.S. farmers with various programs for pricing, marketing, crop insurance and especially your tremendous farm roads and highways. We do not see much of this in Brazil.”

<< MILKER’S MESSAGE >> “Where Farm and Family Meet”

That sort of collaborative effort and volunteer energy will disappear when WesMin closes its door, Peterson said.

Joe Domeier, of Three Rivers RC&D, agrees that the NRCS support will be sorely missed.

“The National RC&D program was an extremely effective program,” Domeier said. “It leveraged nearly $7 in state and local funding for every federal dollar invested. We are currently administering a $34,000 grant from the Farmers Market Promotion Program to assist the Mankato Farmers Market. In the past five years Three Rivers RC&D has brought over a million dollars in federal funds to Minnesota to establish conservation practices on ag land. These funds also helped establish just under 900 acres of perennial conservation crops such as native prairie and biomass crops statewide. We also assisted several organizations in developing markets for perennial crops.”

Three Rivers RC&D includes nine counties in south central Minnesota.

Domeier and Peterson say that some of Minnesota RC&Ds will attempt to continue their work at some level.

“I was at a meeting with the Minnesota Association of RC&D Councils in early May, and the general consensus among the councils was that they would like to continue their work in rural community development and natural resource conservation,” Domeier said. “The biggest obstacle for the councils right now is funding for staff.”

There are some RC&Ds that have their own employee,” Peterson said.

“They fund those positions with grants.”

Prairie Country RC&D, which includes nine counties northwest of Three Rivers, has its own staff. Janell Holien works for Prairie Country RC&D. “The Prairie Country RC&D Council is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that has many active projects,” Holien said. “We will continue to provide the same services as when we received the

existing projects.”

Although the loss of federal funding will affect each RC&D differently, they all will see a decline in activity over the long run. In many ways the loss of federal funding is the end of an era that started more than 50 years ago when the country’s first RC&D, WesMin, was founded.

“I’d like to say ‘thank you’ to all of the people that have been a part of WesMin RC&D over the years,” Peterson said. “Thanks also to those groups we’ve had the privilege of helping.”

THE LAND, JULY 8, 2011

By TIM KING The Land Correspondent GLENWOOD, Minn. — The federal contribution to hundreds of Resource Conservation and Development programs was eliminated when Congress cut costs in April.

Minnesota has eight RC&Ds. All of them will curtail their work in conservation and rural economic development and some may discontinue their work entirely. Iowa has 17 RC&Ds. All of those lost their funding as well.

Nationally, roughly $50 million a year was provided to RC&Ds via the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resource Conservation Service.

“Our operating money came from NRCS but we are a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization,” said Ralph Peterson, chairman of WesMin RC&D. “It provided us with a coordinator who was an NRCS employee and a half-time secretary — also an NRCS employee.

They also provided us with office space and computer hook-ups through NRCS.” Peterson said that without the operating money from NRCS, WesMin, which includes 14 counties in west central Minnesota, will have to figure out how to complete its current projects and then it will likely close its doors.

At the end of April, WesMin, which is the oldest RC&D in the United States, finished a project to assist the city of Wadena to plant thousands of trees.

Much of the urban forest in Wadena was destroyed in a June 2010 tornado.

“We helped get some of the money they needed in Wadena,” Peterson said.

WesMin is currently involved in an improvement project for the Glacial Ridge Trail, improvements at the Phelps Mill Park in Otter Tail County, rain gardens in a number of areas and lakeshore restoration projects in Douglas County.

Part of WesMin’s vision is to assist other organizations with projects that have an economic development and conservation-minded focus.

“We helped rescue Smoky Timbers Camp,” Peterson said. “It was a Girl Scout camp that the Girl Scouts decided to close and sell. A local group came to us and asked us if they could use our 501(c)(3) tax status. We then helped them raise some money to keep it running as a camp. There was about 15 acres on the lake and this helped protect it from development.”

Sedimentation an issue that goes beyond the farm

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Called the Sediment Seminar and hosted by the Minnesota Ag Water Resources Coalition, a June 24 event in Mankato, Minn., attracted a diversified audience of agricultural producers, state and federal agency people, University of Minnesota agricultural research scientists, and board members of various Minnesota producer organizations. One of the wetter and cooler springs in recent times may have triggered the huge turnout.

Bill Gordon, a Nobles County,

Minn., producer and board member of both the Minnesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council and the MAWRC, described the seminar as a general knowledge event for anyone involved and concerned about water quality, particularly as it relates to the nearly 17,000 square miles encompassing the Minnesota River watershed.

“It was a great interchange between agency people and farmer producers,” Gordon said. “I think agency people are recognizing that the very best stewards of the soil and water are we farmers. Yet we sometimes are stymied

by regulations that prevent us from improving the situation.

“A case in point is surface intakes.

We recognize these intakes generate a sediment runoff issue. We’re working to fix that yet there are regulations that prevent us from changing surface intakes. Our DNR and conservation people speak of these as ‘farmable wetlands’ and thus we can’t do any improvements on intakes. Often we’d like to pull those intakes and expand the tile, but too often it seems wetland rules prevent us from this sort of remedial work.”

Recent weather trends aren’t helping. Mark Seeley, one of several speakers, said “climate occurs in episodes” in Minnesota with trends upward both in terms of annual precipitation and frequency of thunderstorm rainfall events.

“In some areas of our state, up to 80 percent of all rains are categorized as thunderstorms,” Seeley said. “From 1991 to 2010, Waseca experienced 38 rain storms of two inches or more precipitation. Mankato had 32 of these high-intensity rainfalls.”

Because of the distribution of these thunderstorm events, Seeley said

Legs, Bins, ers & Tow grain ur for yo g needs! lin hand

we’re also seeing an increase in “spot” drought events. He indicated that since 2004, Minnesota had experienced three, 1,000-year rain storms.

He cited 2007 as an example of the diversity of weather within the state.

In 2007, 24 counties were declared drought-disaster counties. That same year also had seven counties declared as flood disaster counties.

“And fall recharge is increasing,” he said. “In essence we’re getting higher precipitation in the fall than we used to. The net result is increasing spring water problems. Soils were highly saturated going into winter. Heavy snows, especially this winter, simply exacerbated the problems of spring water movement.”

Seeley related that 2010 state precipitation averaged 34 inches — “that made 2010 the wettest in Minnesota’s weather history.”

As a young farmer, Gordon acknowledges changing weather trends are challenging Minnesota agriculture.

“The increasing frequency of these intense events is a growing struggle for our environment, for the rules and regulations now in place, but espeSee SEDIMENT, pg. 10A

Redlin: Legislation aiding progress in environmental protection “With the 2002 farm bill, agricultural conservation was heavily funded. The question was often ‘where are we going to spend more money’ to properly utilize the money.”

With a regional office in St. Paul, Washington, D.C., is his primary work spot. “Our focus today is what priorities do we need to protect the landscape.

Unfortunately right now conservation is an area being severely cut.”

The Izaak Walton League is concerned that the Wetlands Reserve program has got zero dollars going into the next farm bill as per current proposals. Also the Conservation Stewardship program is high on their “protected list.” “This is such a neat,

Freshwater is a goal of everybody

farmers today are doing a much better job. They simply have so much more technology. However our concern is the strong commodity markets are encouraging farmers to abandon some of these conservation practices.

“The issue is keeping water on the land as long as you can. I understand the value of pattern tiling. I’m not indicting the technology, but too often we see too much water moving too quickly into streams and drainage ditches. These sudden increases in water flow do indeed create problems in our rivers and streams.”

An objective of the Freshwater Society is a change in the farm bill that would require adherence to conservation practices as a condition for crop insurance.

Sweeney said that used to be a requirement and his organization would like to see that restored.

■ Sweeney was interviewed at the recent Sediment See PROGRESS, pg. 10A Seminar in Mankato, Minn.

<< MILKER’S MESSAGE >>

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Though agriculture is still under environmental groups’ microscopes, these groups are casting a broader vision on the big picture.

“The Freshwater Society is interested in both urban and rural pollution,” said Patrick Sweeney, communications director for the Freshwater Society, a Minnesota based non-profit organization with ground water sustainability and non-point pollution primary missions.

The society sponsors an annual conference on chloride pollution from road salt. They also devote considerable time teaching and influencing people to keep organic material and phosphorous out of their streets and storm sewers. They also stay tuned to agriculture.

“Sedimentation and turbidity in the Minnesota River is a huge deal,” Sweeney said, noting that the Freshwater Society, working with the Isaac Walton League, sponsored a drainage conference in 2010 inviting both agricultural and environmental people to discuss these issues.

“I think we succeeded in getting some open, cooperative discussions without inflammatory comments.

Some of the speakers at this Sediment Seminar participated in our event. Our organization wants to play a productive role in alleviating the pollution and sedimentation problems.”

He credits Minnesota agriculture with significant improvements in the management of their soils and water. “Compared to the technology and conservation practices of my father on his central Illinois farm,

new model program because it helps producers earn conservation credits and get paid for these practices while at the same time enhancing the environment for the rest of us,” he said.

He’s concerned about farmers. He said there has to be conservation program provisions that go beyond just taking land out of production. He’s a farm kid and understands the need to keep agricultural production ramping up to feed a hungry world.

“But we need to do this in a good way that maintains our natural resources, plus the productivity of the land.”

Talking wetland restoration, Redlin compliments Minnesota farmers. “Minnesota leads the nation in the federal farm bill’s Wetlands Reserve program.

That’s bringing real money into the state in terms of easement payments to the land owner and that also spills off into more local economic activity.”

Regarding progress on the Minnesota River, he said that much depends upon where you start your time window but he did suggest significant positives have been occurring the past decade. “There’s a slug of tools available. We know people want to implement them but it’s a matter of making them cost-effective, both for communities spending the money to do some of these projects, and for farmers making changes in how they farm their fields.”

The Izaak Walton League is a nationwide organization with about 38,000 members with Iowa ranking No. 1 in membership; Minnesota is in the top echelon also. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., Redlin works from the St. Paul office. He also coordinates the Missouri River corridor in Pierre, S.D., and the Upper Mississippi River corridor in the Quad Cities in Iowa.

THE LAND, JULY 8, 2011

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Brad Redlin, Izaak Walton League director of agricultural programs, believes the current farm bill and proposed legislation are generating progress toward a cleaner environment. “Yes, we’re definitely making progress. There’s tremendous evidence that farmers are using these programs to protect their resources.

That’s happening because it enhances their own productivity, plus farmers have a keen eye for environmental improvement.”

However, Redlin predicts the next farm bill will likely have some hefty cuts, much of it impacting conservation programs already in place.

Contrary to public opinion, tiling part of solution SEDIMENT, from pg. 8A cially for we producers. After a heavy rain we need to get the water off our fields quickly, before crop damage. But the consequences of what these sudden rainfall deluges take with them into the river is what we’re trying to prevent.”

He’s a champion of subsurface drainage, i.e. tile.

This lets the earth be the filter of all water movement and keeps sediment out of the tile lines and the drainage system. “That’s using tiled fields to deliver clean, clear water into the streams and rivers. But because farmers own and operate 80 percent of the landscape, we’re wrongly accused of being 80 percent of the problem. That’s simply not so.

“At this conference we heard both Dr. Fox (Gary Fox, Oklahoma State University) and Dr. Gupta (Satish Gupta, University of Minnesota) explain that their studies of river sedimentation documents that about 70 percent of the sediment load is the continual sloughing off and eroding of the edges and sidewalls of streams and rivers. Gupta’s work indicated only about 6 percent of this sediment load comes from agriculture.”

quate buffer strips along thousands of miles of manmade drainage ditches, gets the blame for much of river sediment, especially the deposits building up in the Lake Pepin chamber of the Mississippi River.

But turbidity in rivers and streams has been going on long before the prairie grasses were burned and row-crop agriculture was established.

Gordon said, “Mother Nature has been doing this for hundreds, thousands of years. We’re trying to correct some of these issues that were happening before our pioneer fathers even set foot on these prairies. Even scientists at this event don’t seem to have conclusive answers.

“Contrary to public opinion, pattern tile drainage is partly a solution to sedimentation. Tile acts like a sponge, sucking soil water all season. This spring was a great example on our fields. We had four-foot to five-foot snow depths all winter, some strong rains this spring, yet we didn’t have spring flooding because our tiles were running all winter.”

Zero till, or minimum tillage, may or may not reduce spring runoff, Gordon said. “It all depends on the soil. We’re mostly heavy silty clay loam soils.

Zero till is tough unless you have good subsurface drainage, and that would mean pattern tiling. We’ve done it; we’ve had total crop failure; we’ve had some successes but we don’t have enough subsurface drainage to make it work consistently.”

Gordon congratulates his fellow farmers on the good efforts going into conservation tillage, and the significant reduction in chemical usage per acre thanks to precision farming and modern genetics. “We’ll adopt the

right practices. We’re not going to pollute the rivers; we’re not going to get careless about losing our organic matter in our soils. If no-till was the workable and economic solution, most of us would move that way quickly.

But this is our livelihood. We have some significant investments in each acre we’re farming.

“Federal programs have little to do with how we farm our soils. Guys aren’t doing conservation tillage programs and CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) for the few dollars it pays per acre. They’re doing it because it’s the right thing to do for their soils.”

Gordon has basically a 50-50 corn-soy operation with conservation tillage guiding his strategies. That means deep fall tillage with 45 percent or more of residue on the surface; then field cultivate with nitrogen application ahead of planting. His “soil finisher” tillage equipment keeps surface residue in place because he farms some highly erodible landscapes. Some wetlands and filter strips are also part of his farming operation.

Bipartisan common in ag PROGRESS, from pg. 9A Though located in St. Paul, he rarely visits the Minnesota state legislature because as ag program director his agenda is in D.C. working on federal farm policies.

“I spend most of my time talking to members of Congress. However, the quick acceptance of the budget proposal of the Minnesota Department of Agriculture did not go unnoticed with D.C. policy makers.

“When you see something happening as a result of bipartisan efforts, I often see agriculture in the title of that legislation. That’s less the climate in Washington, D.C., these days but agricultural issues still reflect collective thinking rather than just party-line politics,” Redlin said.

The First Minnesota Volunteer Regiment at Gettysburg

Soldiers’ heroic charge protects Union line

By RICHARD SIEMERS The Land Correspondent It was the summer of 1863, and the First Minnesota Volunteer Regiment was on a hard march north through Maryland. The day was hot and humid, and dust stirred up by thousands of soldiers’ feet hung around the road. They had seen tough fighting, but it wasn’t over yet for these veterans.

The regiment was about two years old. It was formed right at the beginning of the Civil War, made up of 1,000 young Minnesota men, mostly farm boys but also clerks, lawyers and school teachers.

When they departed from Fort Snelling, most of the 10,000 residents of St. Paul had turned out to see them off. Outfitted by local businessmen in red shirts, black pants and black hats, they were a striking group of men.

They showed their mettle at First Bull Run, being among the soldiers who fought a rear-guard action that pre-

vented the defeat from turning into a disaster. It was there they learned that red is not a good color to wear in battle, and got themselves some regulation blues.

They went on to fight in some of the major battles — Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville. Now it was the end of June 1863, and their regiment had been reduced to about 300 battlehardened veterans, led by Col. William Colville. They were proud to be part of the II Corps, one of the best fighting corps in the Union Army. It was led by Gen. Winfield Scott Hancock, a tall, dashing man who inspired his soldiers.

They were heading north after some crushing defeats. Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee had invaded Pennsylvania.

The North was growing tired of the war and its losses. Lee reasoned that if he could invade the North, and win a battle there, maybe the people would call it quits and let the South go its own way.

On the morning of July 1, some of

Lee’s troops were headed toward Gettysburg, looking to replace their wornout shoes. They ran into Union cavalry, which was trying to keep track of Lee’s army. No one planned to fight a battle at Gettysburg, but when the shooting broke out, each side kept funneling in more troops. Lee’s troops got the upper hand and pushed the Union troops back through the town of Gettysburg.

Behind Gettysburg was high ground in the shape of a fishhook. Just south of Gettysburg was Cemetery Hill. To its right, forming the hook, was Culp’s Hill. The shank of the fishhook ran south from Cemetery Hill. The high ground, called Cemetery Ridge, tapered down, then rose again at Little Round Top and Big Round Top. In those days, whoever took the high ground and could hold it usually won the battle. When the fighting ended that day, the Union generals had their soldiers planted on that high ground.

The evening of July 1 found the First Minnesota three miles south of Gettys-

burg. As they set up camp after a full day of marching, they could hear the guns of battle. They knew they would be in that fight the next day.

The Minnesotans were up early on July 2 and soon at Gettysburg, only to stand and wait. They were held in reserve behind Cemetery Ridge. Three companies were detached for other duty, so now the regiment numbered 262 men.

The Confederates were slow to get their attack under way and the fighting started around 3 p.m. The First Minnesota was eventually sent to be support for an artillery battery on Cemetery Ridge.

There they got their first look at the battlefield. From where they were, the land sloped down to a dry creek bed at the bottom, then leveled out into a wide field where the fighting was going on.

The fighting was fierce. They watched the two armies going back and forth. Soldiers of the III Corps out in front of them were hard pressed, See CHARGE, pg. 13A

Small regiment knew significance, possible outcome of battle they would not heed his call.

That’s when he spotted a small cluster of troops in the middle of Cemetery Ridge. Hancock galloped up to them shouting, “What regiment is this?”

Col. Colville replied, “The First Minnesota, sir.”

“Do you see those colors?” Hancock asked, pointing to the Confederate battle flag leading their charge. Colville nodded. Hancock ordered, “Then take them.”

The Minnesotans knew exactly what that meant. Their small regiment was to be sacrificed to buy time for the Union army. But when Col. Colville ordered them to form up, not a single man hesitated. With bayonets fixed, they formed a line about 100 yards long and started down the slope double time.

Now out in the open, they took heavy fire from the Confederates and many of the men went down. The others did not stop or fire back. They just kept going, covering the 300 yards in a minute or

two. As they neared the Confederates, Col. Colville shouted “Charge!” They lowered their bayonets and ran the remaining yards as fast as they could, 262 men charging into 1,600.

They met the first line of Wilcox’s troops at the dry creek bed. They hit them with such a fury that they stunned the Confederates, who faltered and fell back. The Minnesotans dropped into the creek bed and for the first time fired their weapons.The whole Confederate advance was paralyzed for a few minutes. They had this hornet’s nest in their midst that they had to clear out before they could continue. The Minnesotans were so greatly outnumbered that it wasn’t long before they were partly surrounded and taking fire from three sides.

How long did this fighting last? Ten minutes, maybe 15 — no one is certain.

But it was all the time needed for the Union reinforcements to get in line

and plug the gap. They let loose a withering fire into the Confederates.

It was more than the exposed men could take. The stalled Confederates began to fall back and retreat.

When the fighting began to quiet down for the day, the Minnesotans were ordered to pull back up the hill and rejoin the line. Two hundred sixty-two men went charging down that hill.

Forty-seven were able to walk back up.

According to most accounts, the First Minnesota did not capture the Alabamans’ flag. But they didn’t lose their flag, either.

What they did capture was a place in history.Today you cannot read a good account of the battle of Gettysburg without hearing of the heroic charge of the First Minnesota Volunteer Regiment.

CHARGE, from pg. 12A and around 7 p.m. they couldn’t take any more. After three hours of hard fighting, they collapsed under the onslaught of fresh Confederate troops and headed toward the rear. That opened a gap in the Union line.

The Confederate generals saw the gap.

They ordered two brigades to charge through that gap, led by General Wilcox’s 1,600 Alabama troops. If they could penetrate, they could get up on Cemetery Ridge, split the Union line in half, and drive them from the ridge. That action would carry the day, likely win the battle, and possibly win the war.

General Hancock also saw the break in the line and ordered up reserves, but they needed a few minutes to get in line.

It would be a race to see who got their first, and the Confederates had a head start. Hancock needed to slow down the Confederate advance. He tried to rally the retreating troops, get them to turn and fight just a few more minutes, but

Preserved Wasioja station has deep local history

By BONNIE HEIDTKE The Land Correspondent Built from limestone fresh dug from the Wasioja, Minn., quarries in the mid-1800s, no more than 12 feet square and only a single story high, today this building has the distinction of being the only Civil War Recruiting Station west of the Mississippi.

The structure stands within the historic district of Wasioja which nestles on the southwest branch of the Zumbro River four miles west of Mantorville at the intersection of County Roads 16 and 9. Originally built as a bank and law office for James George, one of the original settlers of Wasioja

Village, the building also periodically was used as a jail, office, storeroom, post office, salvage yard and private residence, said Mary Ann Bucher, a member of the Friends of Wasioja and Dodge County Historical Society.

James George left Wasioja to serve as captain in the Mexican War, returned and left again when President Abraham Lincoln sent out the summons for volunteers after the firing on Fort Sumter in 1861. Before he left and because he was a veteran, Capt. George handled the recruiting at the same building which once held his law office.

Grain Outlook Livestock Angles Fireworks heading Volatility the new into 4th weekend market normal

See NYSTROM, pg. 16A

The one thing you can say about the livestock markets these days is that volatility is definitely the norm. Large moves in a short timespan for both cattle and hog markets have been the dominant feature over the past year and it does not appear to be ending anytime soon.

Cattle have bounced back over the past couple of weeks in preparation for the Fourth of July holiday. Retailers scrambled to acquire inventory for the specials to be offered over the long weekend surrounding the holiday events. This forced a quick turnaround in the beef cutout, increasing the packer margin and JOE TEALE allowing a quick burst upward in Broker what packers were willing to pay Great Plains Commodity for live inventory.

Afton As this holiday buying spree started to unwind, so did the aggressiveness of the packers, and prices stabilized and began to slip.

Boxed beef movement, which had been strong, began to wither also as retailers backed away from the higher costs in procuring beef. This reflected into lower bids for live animals and a slipping cattle market.

The rally brought back the hedge funds to the long side which has helped sustain the rally in the futures, but once again the fundamentals appear to be weak and the rally is beginning to fade.

The supply of market-ready cattle continues to look sufficient and with demand starting to decline, the probability of further rally seems remote. Producers should use this current strength to protect summer and early fall inventories.

See TEALE, pg. 16A

The U.S. Department of Agriculture June Planted Acres and Stocks report stated that U.S. farmers planted 92.3 million acres of corn, higher than the highest estimate of 91.5 million acres.

The report estimated corn stocks at 3.67 billion bushels, indicating that farmers have more corn in storage than the industry expected.

It is estimated that U.S. farmers planted 75.2 million acres of soybeans. This was somewhat below the lowest estimate of 75.5 million acres. Soybean stocks were estimated at 619,000 bushels, this is somewhat higher than the markets were expecting.

TOM NEHER This report was a surprise to AgStar VP Agribusiness & Grain Specialist the market and immediately Rochester sparked a fury of debate about the numbers’ accuracy. The biggest surprises were the corn estimates. Many could not believe that we could have planted 92.2 million acres with all of the late planting and flooding.

The common perspective was that we were going to run out of corn this summer, causing people to question the corn stocks number. The soybean estimates were not so widely debated. The USDA will be sending surveys on Aug. 1 to producers in the northern Corn Belt to double-check planted acres that may have been hindered by weather and flooding.

My experience in the markets over the last 25 years is that people tend to “talk their own position.” If one is in a position to profit from prices See NEHER, pg. 16A

“Where Farm and Family Meet”

The following market analysis is for the week ending July 1.

CORN — Fireworks came early in the corn market this week on surprisingly bearish U.S. Department of Agriculture planted acreage and grain stocks reports.

“Blindsided” would be the best word to describe how off-guard the numbers caught traders.

Shortly after the release, the USDA announced they would resurvey acres in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana during July. Any changes would not be reported until the monthly August crop PHYLLIS NYSTROM report.

Country Hedging Here’s the recap of the planted St. Paul acreage report: total U.S. planted corn acres, 92.3 million acres versus 90.7 million on the June monthly crop report and 104,000 higher than the March report. Harvested corn acres were pegged at 84.89 million versus 83.2 million estimated in June.

For those wondering, the USDA conducted the survey during the first two weeks of June, interviewing 70,000 farmers and sampling roughly 11,000 onesquare-mile areas. This was especially interesting since earlier in the week the state Farm Service Agency in North Dakota estimated that 6.3 million acres in their state went unplanted, although no breakdown on what crop they would have been planted with.

On the USDA report, North Dakota principal crop acreage was only down 1.6 million acres from 2010.

Grain Angles Corn estimates surprise trade

THE LAND, JULY 8, 2011

16 A

Without USDA reports, little to drive soybean markets NYSTROM, from pg. 15A The June 1 stocks number was equally as bearish as the planted acres figure. Corn stocks on June 1 were announced at 3.67 billion bushels, well above the 3.302 billion bushel trade estimate. This implies that third quarter feed/residual usage was the lowest since 1975-76.

No one will be shocked if 2010-11 ending stocks jump by 200,000 bushels on the next report. Private forecasts put the 2011-12 carryout in the 1.0 billion bushel area as compared to the June USDA projection of 695 million bushels.

In post-report trading, July corn staged the largest single-day move ever in the history of corn futures, falling 83 cents at its lowest level (closed down 69 cents). July corn is in delivery and does not have trading limits.

Other corn contracts plummeted the 30 cent daily limit, resulting in an expanded 45-cent daily limit for July 1. Heading into the long Fourth of July weekend and with the sale to unknown, corn finally found its feet and bounced off the 45-cent limit.

For the week, July corn dove 29 1/4 cents lower to close at $6.40 3/4, the September corn contract plunged 50 1/4 cents to settle at $6.06 3/4, and the December fell 35 1/4 cents to close at $5.96 3/4 per bushel.

Prior to the USDA reports, there were rumors circulating the market that China had bought U.S. corn. The rumors were never confirmed, however, the USDA did announce a sale of 360,000 metric tons of old crop corn and 780,000 mt of new crop to unknown destinations the day after the USDA release.

OUTLOOK: According to the USDA, we have sufficient corn stocks to get through the year and have

more corn in the ground than expected. This opens the door for further downside if the weather cooperates and doesn’t pose a significant threat to yields.

During June, corn lost 15.9 percent of its value.

Since the end of 2010, the nearby corn contract is unchanged year-to-date, i.e. the nearby corn contract on Dec. 31, 2010, closed at $6.29, the same price the lead corn contract closed on June 30. On the expectation that end-users will find value at these levels and that acreage will decline on subsequent reports, the first upside target in December corn will be the bottom of the gap left this week at $6.20 1/2.

Next short-term upside targets will include $6.32 and $6.49/bu. We’ll look for this week’s low of $5.75 1/2 to hold as support for now, with next support at the March low of $5.44 3/4/bu.

SOYBEANS — Without the USDA reports this week, there was little to drive the soybean market. A weaker U.S. dollar and stronger energy markets were enough to provide strength early in the week to the soybeans.

The June 30 soybean report was friendly with planted acreage at 75.2 million acres versus the June estimate of 76.6 million acres. This would be the lowest soybean acreage since 2008. The new har-

vested acres number is 74.26 million versus the June 75.7 million harvested number. In March, the planted acreage estimate was also 76.6 million.

Private forecasts for the 2011-12 soybean carryout come in the 140 million to 165 million bushels range.

The USDA June 2011-12 carryout was 190 million bushels. In spite of the bullish planted acreage report, the bearishness of the corn market overwhelmed beans. The soybean stocks numbers was slightly bearish at 619 million bushels versus the trade prediction of 595 million bushels.

In the end, soybeans were rather flat when compared to other market moves this week. The November contract traded a weekly range of $13.38 1/2 to $12.86 before settling for the week at $13.12 1/2, up 3 1/4 cents for the week.

OUTLOOK: The soybean balance remains tight into next year. August weather will eventually determine just how snug they will be. If yields are not threatened, November could trade closer to $12.50 to $12; but if there is a problem, a rebound to the $14 to $15 area could be in the cards. While it seems like a wide range, it is what it is.

Soybeans during June were down 5.1 percent of their value and year-to-date they are down 6.3 percent of value.

Demand will remain key hog director TEALE, from pg. 15A Hogs have had a similar fate as the cattle over the past couple of weeks. Good holiday buying of pork by the retailers sent prices soaring to new all-time highs for both the pork cutout as well as the live price paid for hogs. However, as with the cattle, as the holiday buying began to subside, so did the packer begin to back down on the aggressiveness to acquire live inventory.

With the pork cutouts at new highs, the retailers also became reluctant to take on large inventories of pork product. This has resulted in a sharp drop in volume as well as a drop in the pork cutout in an attempt to move product.

Based on the recent Hogs and Pigs report, there has been little reduction in the hog herd which reflects an ample supply of live inventory for the packers to pick over. Therefore, demand will remain the key to the direction of hog prices in the upcoming months.

With the futures contracts now discount to the current cash market, this is reflecting the attitude that hog prices are expected to seasonally decline, and that inventories are more than ample to meet future demand.

Producers should be cognizant of this situation and use strength to lock-in summer and fall inventories.

‘Beware when everyone runs to same side of the boat’ NEHER, from pg. 15A advancing, they tend to talk about all the production problems and lack of inventory. Those who stand to profit from a decline in prices, tend to talk about large supplies and resilient crop genetics.

People also tend to view their own crop conditions as representative of the crop all around the world.

This behavior is natural and a great example of human nature.

The news from this report is an example of the types of surprises that move markets. The bullish perceptions had already been priced into the market.

With this news, the market’s job was to discover the fair market value.

It remains to be seen if this report signaled a change in the price trend. Volatility will still be rampant with the tight stocks-to-use ratios in corn and soybeans. All eyes will be on the weather forecast for

the next 60 days, as crop development will be the key to filling the pipeline this fall.

I will never forget the words that a grizzled old grain trader told me after a market-moving surprise on trading floor of the Kansas City Board of Trade.

We were worn out and smelled of frantic perspiration from a crazed day in the pit. He put his hand on my shoulder and said, “Son, always beware when everyone runs to the same side of the boat; lest she roll over.”

As I pondered his words of wisdom, I knew that would be a Grain Angle that I would never forget.

As the dog days of summer march on, let us remember that rain and heat units make grain. For this we must be grateful. It is the harvest that allows us to feed a hungry world and support our families.

Remember to let those who are the most important to you, know how much they mean to you. Life is short and so are weather markets.

barrel traded hands on the week. The lagging NASSsurveyed U.S. average block price hit $1.9861, up 3.5 cents and the barrels averaged $2.0478, up 5.5 cents.

■ FC Stone dairy broker Dave Kurzawski looks for cheese to slip after the Fourth of July. In a Wednesday “DairyLine” interview Kurzawski said he has heard of discounted cheese being sold. Cheese sold at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange is no more than 30 days old, he said, so the steady current price is a “symptom of some tightness in fresh cheese,” but he believes that’s about to change.

Eyes are on butter which slipped the second week in a row, though it did rally a penny on Wednesday and Thursday. It has been at or above $2 since the first of the year. The cash price closed Friday at $2.04, down 2 cents on the week, following the previous week’s eight-cent drop, but is still 29 cents above a year ago. Ten cars traded hands on the week. The NASS price hit $2.1272, up 0.8 cent.

Kurzawski doesn’t believe we’re out of the woods yet on the tightness in butter as demand still appears to be good but the real issue in his mind is what will demand look like on Aug. 1. By then a lot of commercial buyers will have sourced their needs almost for the balance of the year, he said, and we could see prices slip at that point but, “as of today, we still have a pretty decent support underpinning the market.”

Cash Grade A nonfat dry milk held all week at $1.6250 while Extra Grade remained at $1.61. NASS powder averaged $1.6629, up 0.9 cent, and dry whey averaged 53.06 cents/lb., up a half-cent. Powder has been pretty quiet, Kurzawski said, and he cited an old adage, “Don’t sell a sleeping market.”

He’s not calling it a sleeping market, he said, as it is quiet most of the time and right now buyers have

MIELKE, from pg. 18A been quiet and international pressure has come on prices, but we’ll know more from Fonterra’s auction on July 5. “The demand picture has been quiet,” he said, “I really wouldn’t think that this market is going to be very well supported as we roll into the middle of third quarter.”

■ Looking “back to the futures,” the federal order Class III contract’s average for the last half of 2011 was $17.64/cwt. on May 6; $17.49 on May 13; $18.22 on May 20; $18.39 on May 27; $18.72 on June 3; $18.34 on both June 10 and June 17 and $18.21 on June 24.

The University of Wisconsin’s Brian Gould pointed out in Tuesday’s “DairyLine” that the high butter price has increased butter’s contribution to the federal order Class III milk price. Butter typically represents about 40 percent of the Class III value, he said. That jumped to 48 percent in May but the big player is whey.

The strong protein market has meant a strong nonfat dry milk and dry whey price, Gould said, and whey’s contribution to the Class III price has doubled since the first of the year in terms of its relative value. Now it’s about 10 percent of the Class III value, he said, something not seen since late 2007.

He attributed that to the strong export market for protein and said domestic users of dry whey are competing for whey with the export market. Last month’s calculation of the Class III price showed dry whey averaged about 49 cents/lb., Gould said, and whey typically averages 25 to 30 cents. (The June whey price was 52.33 cents as reported earlier.)

Export markets tend to be more volatile than domestic markets, Gould said, and that was evidenced in 2008 and 2009 when we lost a significant amount of exports resulting in a dramatic downturn in prices. It’s something to be aware of, he said, “when we start relying on the export market to be a major source of our dairy product demand.”

■ Back on the home front, dairy farm profitability improved slightly in June as milk prices increased to cover a small hike in feed. The USDA’s latest Ag Prices report shows the All-Milk price for June estimated at $21/cwt., up $1.40 from May, $5.60 above June 2010, and the highest since December 2007, according to the CME’s Daily Dairy Report.

The cost of feed to produce 100 pounds of milk was $11.48, up just 15 cents from May. Corn averaged a record $6.58 per bushel, up 28 cents from May and $3.17 above a year ago. Soybeans averaged $13.30/bu., up a dime from May and $3.85 above a year ago. One bright note, alfalfa hay averaged $180 per ton, down $6, but still $61 higher than a year ago. That left “Income over feed costs” of $9.52/cwt., according to the DDR, $1.25 higher than May, and compares to a 10-year average of $9.09.

There’s more good news on the feed front. The USDA’s Acreage and Grain Stocks reports showed U.S. corn plantings at 92.3 million acres, substantially higher than what was forecast in the July 12

I was surprised how tranquil I felt until Debbie said, “Mom wants to be cremated.” Cremation is not what I want for myself, although Dad was cremated, I wanted my parents’ wishes to be honored. It was encouraging to me how well the planning went with no disagreements about the arrangements.

Getting your affairs in order for end-of-life decisions “Durable” Power of Attorney — The general, special and health care powers of attorney can all be made “durable” by adding certain text to the document. This means that the document will remain in effect or take effect if you become mentally incompetent.

Many people do not know the difference between a General and a “Durable” Power of Attorney. A General Power of Attorney is a document by which you appoint a person to act as your agent. Agents are authorized to make decisions for you, sign legal documents, etc. Many people are unaware that a General Power of Attorney is revoked when the person granting that power becomes incompetent or incapacitated.

It is the “Durable” Power of Attorney that allows for an agent to continue making decisions on your behalf no matter what happens to you. A responsible adult child of an aging parent would be given a “durable power of attorney” to act on behalf of the parent. This provides broader authority than just adding the child’s name to bank accounts and documents.

You may choose to produce notarized power of attorney documents on your own. If your estate is large and real estate or business is included, it is advised to secure the services of an attorney.

If we had a crystal ball and could see into the future, we would not need to prepare ahead for endof-life decisions.

A stroke could make it impossible for you to communicate with your family. If neither your spouse nor your children know anything about your financial or medical information because you have always taken care of things yourself and left no written directives on your behalf they are unable to carry out your preferences. Besides having to locate important documents, the family is left to make their own decisions about your long-term care.

Following are three simple, but important steps to putting your affairs in order.

• Put your important papers and copies of legal documents in one place. You could set up a file, put everything in a desk or dresser drawer, or just list the information and location of papers in a notebook. If your papers are in a bank safe deposit box, keep copies in a file at home.

Check each year to see if there is anything new to add.

• Tell a trusted family member or friend where you put all your important papers. You don’t need to tell this friend or family member about your personal affairs, but someone should know where you keep your papers in case of emergency. If you don’t have a relative or friend you trust, ask a lawyer to help.

• Give consent in advance for your doctor or lawyer to talk with your caregiver as needed. There may be questions about your care, a bill or a health insurance claim.

Without your consent, your caregiver may not be able to get needed information. You can give your OK in advance to Medicare, a credit card company, your bank or your doctor. You may need to sign and return a form.

Clean feeders, baths key to happy avian visitors Looking for a pet that does not need to be housebroken, groomed or trained? How about a flock of them?

If so, consider making your front or back yard a haven for wild birds. With little effort, you can enjoy the sights and sounds of these feathered friends all year long.

The best way to attract birds to a yard is by providing plenty of food and water.

“Most commercial feeders will work fine as long as they are sturdy, easy to clean and have adequate drainage,” said Ian Tizard, director of the Schubot Exotic Bird Health Center at the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at Texas A&M University.

Tizard said where the feeder is placed is more important than what type of feeder it is.

“No bird wants to take the risk of getting ambushed. Feeders should be near enough to foliage that birds might use it to flee from predators,” Tizard said.

However, birds will be wary of feeders and baths placed too close to bushes since predators can easily spring from nearby foliage in a surprise attack.

“Birdhouses should be placed in a way that mimics the location of the birds’ natural habitat,” Tizard said.

For as many types of feeders that are available, there are at least as many kinds of birdseed. Tizard

recommends sunflower seed for attracting the widest variety and most colorful birds, including cardinals and finches.

Some mixes are designed to attract only certain birds, so consult the package labeling for this information.

Keeping bird feeders, baths and houses clean is also crucial to keeping healthy, happy birds visiting the yard.

“Cleaning feeders and houses will keep harmful mold from growing in them. Wood feeders, which can be difficult to clean, are not usually recommended,” Tizard said.

“Supplying bird feeders and baths causes more birds to congregate than would under normal circumstances,” Tizard said. “For this reason, disease may spread more quickly, but keeping feeders and baths clean can minimize the spread of disease.”

Tizard suggests using a solution of one part household bleach to two or three parts water for effectively cleaning feeders and baths. At the very least, they should be cleaned once a year, but may require cleaning more often where exposure to the elements has fouled the seed and/or water. Birdhouses are usually vacated during the winter months, so you’ll want to clean them out then to prepare for spring’s new tenants.

Hummingbirds require special considerations.

According to Tizard, the best way to attract hummingbirds is to design a garden full of colorful, fragrant flowers.

“It is OK to provide hummingbird feeders with homemade nectar as a supplement, but be aware that the males can be territorial,” Tizard said. “Providing more than one feeder will ease the aggression associated with hummingbird males who will claim one as his own.”

Since homemade nectar can spoil, it is important to keep a fresh supply in clean feeders.

Also, it is important to note that feeders placed too close to windows may actually be more harmful than helpful. Birds are often injured or killed flying into windows when the birds mistake the reflection in the glass for sky. You can reduce the chances of window injuries by placing stickers or other reflection-marring materials on your windows.

Silhouette bird stickers can often be purchased where birdseed is sold. These window stickers intimidate smaller birds, keeping them from flying into a window.

It is relatively inexpensive to create an environment that will attract wild birds. By simply seeing to their needs, a yard can become a playground that is, literally, for the birds.

Woman makes transformation from city girl to sheep farmer Friend gives her readers a sense of the bucolic. She lulls us into total serenity with her poetic descriptions of her flock — and then she knocks us upside the funnybone with asides that are dyed-in-thewool hilarious. In between, Friend has a way of bringing tears to our eyes before she pulls us back to the funny farm.

If a taste of the country is what you crave this summer, if you’re a farmer or a wanna-be, a knitter, or just love a wooly tale, here’s a book you’ll enjoy.

“Sheepish” is perfect for ewe.

■ Look for the reviewed book at a bookstore or a library near you. You may also find the book at online book retailers.

••• The Bookworm is Terri Schlichenmeyer. Terri has been reading since she was 3 years old and never goes anywhere without a book. She lives in Wisconsin with three dogs and 10,000 books.

Life never stops on the farm. That was evident with the birth of twin calves that morning. Meanwhile, the Farm-City Hub Club provided tasty

dairy treats to visitors as they enjoyed the farm experience.

Also on-hand with a calf was Minnesota dairy industry’s Princess Kay of the Milky Way, Katie Miron. It was hard to tell if the kids were more impressed by Miron’s adorable calf or her sparkly crown.
