‘Get to work’ understood on a dairy farm; not so in D.C. The undercooked thought and over-baked talk that endlessly paralyzes Washington would not have gone far on the southern Illinois dairy farm of my youth before someone, boss or hired hand alike, would have condemned the yak and urged all to “Get to work.” And everyone would have without another grumble or gripe because success — from the hired men’s next paycheck to the farm’s next milk
check — hung on everyone doing their job and doing it on time. That often meant the hired men knew what do before my father, the farm’s manager, told them what to do. For example, my father rarely told the hired men to unload the three or four loads of alfalfa hay parked in the barn lot most summer mornings. Jackie and Charlie or Al and Bobbie

OPINION
Minnesota’s agricultural export figures for 2010 show an impressive 22 percent increase over 2009 sales.This is significantly higher than the national increase of 13 percent. It also compares favorably to other economic sectors. For example, Minnesota’s largest economic segment — manufacturing — posted a 17 percent increase. Aside from taking the opportunity to brag on behalf of Minnesota agriculture, I mention these export numbers to highlight the great opportunity that China and other developing markets present for our farm and food sector. The most exciting news is that this agricultural export growth is pumping new life into our state economy. Each dollar of agricultural exports generates an additional $1.36 in economic and business activities. Every $1 billion of agricultural exports supports 8,000 jobs throughout the state economy — in both rural communities and urban centers. That means Minnesota’s 2010 agricultural exports supported more than 40,000 jobs. Gov. Mark Dayton recently said the ultimate solution to the state’s budget woes will be vigorous economic growth. I agree completely, and I am excited about the role Minnesota agriculture can play in boosting our economy as we build on our successes with international trade. As the world’s breadbasket, Minnesota and the other Midwestern states have a great opportunity. Far from being a relic of the past, agriculture has a chance to enter another era of sustained prosperity. As a major driver of the rural economy, a resurgent agricultural sector can bring new life and economic vitality to rural parts of the state. Of course, the policy choices we make about agriculture, land use, conservation and rural development will make a big difference not only in how much rural communities benefit from this opportunity, but in how effectively we meet the world’s real and pressing food security needs. To fully capitalize on the opportunities ahead, we need policies that encourage a diverse and healthy farm sector, one with room for conventional and organic, large and small, crop and livestock, international and local. We also need to build and maintain a strong rural transportation and commerce infrastructure — from roads to rail to high-speed internet — to allow our farm sector to efficiently and inexpensively market its goods. Last but not least, we need to ensure a high quality of life in rural communities to attract larger numbers of the nation’s highly talented young people into farming and the many other supporting businesses and professions. I believe the road to economic resurgence goes through rural Minnesota. Just as agriculture helped build this state in the 19th and 20th centuries, we now have the
opportunity to help rebuild a new and healthy economy for the 21st century. Here at the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, we look forward to working with our farm and food sector to make it happen.

Human-animal bond growing in modern society Humans and animals have interacted together for thousands of years. From the very first people who decided to domesticate the dog, to the present day “pioneers” that choose to keep goats and pigs in their houses, animals have played huge roles in the lives of many people. While early civilization saw them as mainly a food and fiber source or a hunting tool, modern society views them as companions, family and best friends. The human-pet bond concept emerged in veterinary medicine as recently as the last few decades, and it has caused the companion animal industry to explode. According to M. A. Crist, clinical assistant professor at the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, the inclusion of pets in many non-traditional activities, such as family ceremonies, photos, trips and gatherings, drives part of the pet industry today. “Many of today’s pets are now considered part of the family and are treated as family members,” Crist said. “For example, some clients have pet chickens that live in their houses. The chickens wear little pantaloons to catch their droppings in the house so that they do not make a mess. Chickens are actually becoming quite popular as family pets.” Many pet owners include their pets in their day-to-day activities, and a lot of them include their pets in social outings. Some people raise and show pets as part of their livelihood, while others do so as a sport. “The human-animal bond has defi-
nitely become stronger and more apparent,” Crist said. “Society is experiencing more legal issues with pets such as pets having guardians, becoming heirs to large family fortunes, or becoming disputed over in divorces. “People are wanting to make sure their pets are provided for in the event of their deaths, causing the inception of companion animal centers that care for pets when their owners pass away or are no longer able to care for them.” What has caused this shift in the way people view animals? “In the past, most dogs and cats were kept outside on the family farm or ranch,” Crist said. “The dogs were sometimes used to help work the cattle or guard the sheep, and the cats were kept around to keep the mice or snake population under control.” As populations changed and urbanization began, dogs and cats started moving into the house, and the human-pet bond thus began to grow and strengthen. Additionally, the bond developed in food and farm animals as well. “Youth began to get involved in FFA and 4-H programs in schools and became involved in raising and showing sheep, steers, goats, pigs, chickens, rabbits and other food animals for competition,” Crist said. As people and animals began living together, the bond between them became more emotional. Traditional uses of animals were questioned and modified to satisfy the want of companionship. “As veterinarians, we are seeing a

trend toward some farm pets being kept in the house as personal pets,” Crist said. “New miniature breeds, or ‘designer’ breeds, are becoming popular so that these pets can be kept in smaller spaces. For example, the miniature micro pig, or teacup pig, is a pig smaller than the potbelly pig and is becoming a popular household pet.” Again, this is an instance of how far food animals have come in regards to their relationship with humans. “Years before, food animals were raised simply for that — food — and did not have long lives,” Crist said. “Today, some food animals are kept as pets and will live to be quite old. As veterinarians, we are now learning some of the diseases and issues that go along with geriatric (older) food and farm animals. We have improved greatly at pain management for these animals, and we have a better understanding of the pharmacokinetics (action of drugs in the
body over a period of time) of the medications we can use in these animals.” Snakes, birds, dogs, horses, goats, cats — for all pet species, there are humans that love them. This simple need for companionship has helped to greatly improve diagnostics in veterinary medicine, as many of the diagnostics and treatments that are available to humans are now available to animals, too. Owners want the best for their pets, and in return, they receive a life-long friend that might bear a ring in a wedding, pose in the family photo, or follow them roomto-room while wearing pantaloons. ••• Pet Talk is a service of the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, Texas A&M University.

Hyperthermia: Heat-related illness advice for older people Hot summer weather can pose special health risks to older adults. Following is advice for helping older people avoid heat-related illnesses, known as hyperthermia. Hyperthermia is an abnormally high body temperature caused by a failure of the heat-regulating mechanisms of the body to deal with the heat coming from the environment. Heat fatigue, heat syncope (sudden dizziness after prolonged exposure to the heat), heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke are commonly known forms of hyperthermia. Risk for these conditions can increase with the combination of outside temperature, general health and individual lifestyle. Lifestyle factors can include not drinking enough fluids, living in housing without air conditioning, lack of mobility and access to transportation, overdressing, visiting overcrowded places and not understanding how to respond to hot weather conditions. Older people, particularly those with chronic medical conditions, should stay indoors on hot and humid days. People without air conditioners should go to places such as senior centers, shopping malls, movie theaters or libraries. Health-related factors that may increase risk include: • Being dehydrated. • Age-related changes to the skin
such as poor blood circulation and inefficient sweat glands. • Heart, lung and kidney diseases, as well as any illness that causes general weakness or fever. • High blood pressure or other conditions that require changes in diet. For example, people on salt-restricted diets may increase their risk. However, salt pills should not be used without first consulting a doctor. • Reduced perspiration caused by medications such as diuretics, sedatives, tranquilizers and certain heart and blood pressure drugs. • Taking several drugs for various conditions. It is important, however, to continue to take prescribed medication and discuss possible problems with a physician. • Being substantially overweight or underweight. • Drinking alcoholic beverages. Heat stroke is a life-threatening form of hyperthermia. It occurs when the body is overwhelmed by heat and unable to control its temperature. Someone with a body temperature above 104 degrees Fahrenheit is likely suffering from heat stroke and may have symptoms of confusion, combativeness, strong rapid pulse, lack of sweating, dry flushed skin, faintness, See HYPERTHERMIA, pg. 8

Small nutrition ideas for big stress reduction Stress depletes the body of energy in a variety of ways. Loss of sleep, feelings of agitation or depression and development of poor eating habits are “side effects” of stress that need intervention. Some stress can help us rise to the occasion and get things done, but too much stress drains the body. One way to break the stress cycle is by changing the diet to one that can actually help reduce stress. The body under stress will experience a reduction in vital nutrients, such as B vitamins, which are nervous system helpers. Depending on magne-
sium to help with muscles and calcium for bones, the overstressed system may benefit from vitamin and mineral supplements. Before starting a vitamin regimen, consult with your primary doctor about any special needs you may have. The doctor may be able to refer you to a nutritionist who can target specific requirements and make useful dietary changes. When stressed, all individuals may go for “comfort food,” which can include coffee, even if it’s decaffeinated. Coffee, cola and chocolate are three major suspects when it comes to providing com-
fort while introducing caffeine, which will sap one’s ability to relax. Caffeine also dilates the kidneys, increasing the need to empty the bladder. While there’s nothing wrong with active, healthy kidneys, it becomes inconvenient in the middle of the night. Frequent urination also requires that we put the water back into our system, and a continuous cycle of tasty beverages with caffeine’s stimulating element can dehydrate our systems. Dehydration is a common nutritional problem. We don’t wash our clothes in soda or tea, but we frequently “wash our insides” with these substances. Many people complain that “water is boring,” and they have a point. Some folks recommend adding a splash of cranberry juice, lemon or lime to adjust the flavor. There are vitamin supplements that can be added to water to provide a break, also. The added hydration can be a tremendous stress reducer, especially when incorporating exercise into a stress management program. Small changes that focus on key areas such as fat, fiber and sugars lead to big improvements in overall health. Many of us opt for drive-through or delivery to solve the stress of cooking a meal. Some fast food companies are offering healthier choices, but the old,
less healthy favorites may be hard to get away from. If you find that you are having a problem acclimating yourself or your loved one to the “healthy” options, add on components such as salad or vegetables to round out the meal and incorporate fiber. Fiber helps the body move food through the digestive system, enhances the “full” feeling and improves digestion by helping eliminate waste from the system. Constipation can increase stress in the body both physically and emotionally. A balanced system eliminates waste at the proper intervals, allowing the individual to feel comfortable physically, leading to emotional comfort as well as physical. When it comes to vitamins, the first priority is to “eat” your vitamins through “whole” foods that retain their nutrients. Whole foods do not have to be served raw, but there should be no processing that adds preservatives. Creating “whole-food meals” can be done gradually by adding salads, or by blanching or steaming cut vegetables. Since time and energy are usually a factor, consider paying extra for precut vegetables. When cooking “whole” foods for you and your loved one, you may need to add time on to the quick cooking for softer vegetables. Even frozen foods, properly cooked See NUTRITION, pg. 9

Seek immediate emergency attention HYPERTHERMIA, from pg. 6 staggering, possible delirium or coma. Seek immediate emergency medical attention for a person, especially an older adult, with any of these symptoms. If you suspect that someone is suffering from a heat-related illness: • Get the person out of the sun and into a shady, air-conditioned or other cool place. Urge them to lie down. • If you suspect heat stroke, call 911. • Encourage the individual to shower, bathe or sponge off with cool water. • Apply a cold, wet cloth to the
wrists, neck, armpits, and/or groin, places where blood passes close to the surface of the skin, and the cold cloths can help cool the blood. • Offer fluids such as water, fruit and vegetable juices, but avoid alcohol and caffeine.

metabolized and exercised away. The definition of “moderate” varies from one source (and one individual) to another. Cutting out sugar may be impossible, considering many foods (even ones from the health food store) contain some variation of sugar. Sugars other names are high fructose corn syrup, cane sugar, turbinado, dextrose, maltose, among others. Sugar “alcohols” like malitol can still affect blood sugar. Artificial sweeteners have their drawbacks, too. Allergies, digestive intolerance and more are part of “real” and “fake” sugar. Until you allow your body a break from sugar, you may not be able to tell which reactions are due to its consumption. Reducing allergens and foods that keep the body in a “hyper” state (caffeine, salty foods and sugars) take away the need for the body to work to process the ingredients. Taking a break from some foods and additives is one way to reduce stress on the body. Rather than a stressful and radical makeover of your diet, remove one item at a time, and rotate it back into your diet about four days later. This can help you identify minor and major food stressors on the body. Allergens, portions and “bad foods” can add stress to your life. Adjusting the content and quantity of food leads to less stress and better nutrition.

NUTRITION, from pg. 8 and with a minimum of additives, can provide better nutritional alternatives than one might imagine. Opt for minimal processing. This includes the amount of sodium in canned, frozen or even in deli-prepared foods. Salad bars or food bars in grocery chains may appear healthy, but combine questionable ingredients. For example, the “healthy” tuna salad may contain far more mayonnaise than some people might use. The same is true for salad dressings prepared at salad bars and added on to the greens. Most retailers and restaurants will disclose nutrition values, but you can get an idea by just looking at some offerings. One way around the confusion in salad bars is to mix “plain,” unadorned vegetables, nuts and pastas with a smaller portion of your favorite sauce-laden dish. Overeating can be a reaction to stress, but it is also something that creates stress on many levels. Experimenting with smaller portions and more frequent meals can reduce the demand on the body to process a big meal at once. This technique also cuts down on berating oneself for eating too much. Any physical distress can result in generalized stress for the individual, which includes even a mild raising of blood pressure. Salt is a nutrient everyone needs; but when overused, can create bloating, mild dehydration and problems with blood pressure. Salt alternatives range from lemon pepper to products like dulse, a sea vegetable that adds salt flavor but may be healthier because it is not table salt. With any changes, look for items that may create food allergies. For example, sea vegetables can create allergic reactions in people who have an iodine allergy. Sugar in moderate quantities can be

A translucent, soft cotton ball drifted into the sunset. Several landed near the giant cottonwood trees. The seeds are waiting for rain. Future trees will start growing here next to the river. An old cottonwood tree, beaten and battered, has a waxy whisper as its leaves rattle together. It’s not quite fall, but signs get me excited about the next seasonal change. I lived next to the Blue Earth River for much of my life. It’s important to me to see the native plants like the mighty cottonwoods which flourish in this area.

Cover story: Olympics — Having fun and helping a cause By RENAE B. VANDER SCHAAF The Land Correspondent SPIRIT LAKE, Iowa — Fair organizers are always endeavoring to develop a new event that will draw the crowds to their fairs. Five years ago the Milford Pioneers 4-H Club put together an idea that has become a fair favorite. “Our club felt that there needed to be something happening on one of the evenings of the fair when things usually got over with rather early,” said Karen Schwaller. Schwaller and her husband, Dave, are the leaders of the Milford Pioneer Club. “We thought that if we could come up with something to bring people to or keep them at the fair longer, it would be helpful for the fair overall.” That event which the club named Farm Chore Olympics has been tremendously successful judging by the crowd that gathered on July 25 at the Dickinson county Fair. Schwaller said that they try to come up with new challenges each year. “Everyone brings something to contribute to the various events,” Schwaller said. “It doesn’t cost our club a cent to do it. And we have so much fun doing it.” All the events are timed. Two teams are competing against each other at a time. This year there were 14 teams. Teams consist of 4-H club members, FFA students, college-aged youth and adults — anyone who wants to participate can. The criteria for the Farm Chore Olympics is short: five members per team, of which at least two had to

Thus when one team’s members were announced they were all a bit surprised.

Schwaller said, “we have people gathered together, and in the spirit of 4-H learning and ‘making the best better,’ we choose a charity to help out and take up a collection for them.” On July 25, $153 was raised to help out Voluntary Action Center. The VAC is a local, non-profit organization that organizes volunteers to help with various important things in Dickinson County. Their volunteer work is said to have an annual savings to the county of around $96,000, Schwaller said.

Hastily passing on the hat, it was bale-toss time. The fence seemed pretty high for the younger team members to toss three bales over, and then toss the same three bales back again, restacking them neatly. Working as a team, the five members would roll the round bale down a path and over a railroad tie. The clock would stop.

Lexington house of worship really going places By ROBB MURRAY Mankato Free Press When even the earliest settlers crossed the Atlantic and set up villages, one of the first things they did was figure out where to worship. That was more than enough reason for Loren Riebel, several months back, to do what he did. He heard there was a vacant church in Lexington, Minn., — St. Joseph’s Catholic Church — a victim of declining church memberships that have plagued parishes nationwide. He’s also been a member of the Pioneer Power Show for years, and one of the few things the annual agriculture extravaganza lacks is a church.

So $67,000 in fundraising later, Riebel and the donors who fell in with his cause are about to bring a little more authenticity to a show that, as its name suggests, honors the earliest Minnesotans and their agrarian way of life.
agreement the church remain intact. The costs, however, will come from the move. It will cost about $75,000 to move the 35-feet-by-80-feet building, and Riebel is still looking for donations to cover the rest. For Riebel, a retired dairy farmer, acquiring the church was the best way he could think of to show attendees how important faith was to settlers in rural Minnesota.

An organ perched on the balcony remains, although cobwebs have crept in, as well as Asian lady beetles; their remains are evident at the foot of every stained glass window. But the pews are immaculate, the carpet fairly new, and in the sacristy, smocks and acolyte gowns remain. Candelabras and hymnals exist as if they’re ready for Sunday Mass. The church looks as if it would take but a quick cleanup to get it ready for worshippers this weekend.

Grain Outlook Corn feeds the bulls and bears
Livestock Angles Let the buyer beware
Grain Angles Dog days are upon us
The following market analysis is for the week ending Aug. 5. CORN — The corn market had something for both the bulls and bears this week. E-mails and blogs were packed with pictures and descriptions of corn fields, all trying to get a better handle on what the final yield may be. Early in the week, a private yield projection of 150 bushels per acre pushed the corn limit higher, ignoring a rising U.S. dollar after the U.S. Congress finally agreed on a debt ceiling extension. A weekly Reuters’ survey pegged the yield at 155.2 PHYLLIS NYSTROM Country Hedging bu./acre at midweek. St. Paul Weather forecasts were mostly consistent calling for more seasonal type temperatures and chances for rain. By the time Informa Economics released their updated crop estimate, the market had absorbed the worst-case scenarios and had been unable to push into new contract highs. Informa’s forecast of 158 bu./acre was only 0.7 bu./acre less than the last U.S. Department of Agriculture estimate, 5.2 bu./acre higher than last year’s final yield, and higher than what the trade had already incorporated into $7-plus corn. Informa Economics projects total corn production at 13.353 billion bushels, 406 million bushels less than what they forecasted in July. Even with the perceived bearish Informa yield projection, corn did not plummet, but only gave back a portion of the week’s gains.
As we end July and move into August, the livestock markets are continuing to keep a positive price direction, for the most part. Both cattle and hogs are either moving into record highs or near their respective price highs. Hogs have been the real winner in price improvement since the end of May, as exports and weather have accelerated the advance into new high ground above $100 per hundredweight live basis the Midwest. The weather, which has been extremely warm, has forced the marketing of live animals to slow as producers held back animals JOE TEALE to protect them from the heat Broker and death loss. Great Plains Commodity Afton This forced packers to increase their bids to acquire live inventory to keep pace with the demand as long as the profit margins held. Then throw in the announcement that the Chinese were interested in buying U.S. pork and the markets responded with a positive advance in prices. Because of the weather and the interest by the Chinese in U.S. pork, the likelihood of further advances in prices are certainly possible. However as the price continues to advance and the pork cutouts reach levels that begin to reflect extremely higher prices in the domestic market, the demand for pork is likely to subside. Given the economic situation, it would seem near impossible to sustain a long-term price advance as demand begins to shrink because of the higher prices. Therefore, producers should keep aware of the
The dog days of August are upon us and the soybean crop takes center stage in the grain markets. It is said that the corn crop is made in July and the soybean crop is made in August. The later planting this year may push this drama back a bit, but the soybean weather forecasts will steal the first look. The rains that falls on soybean crops during the critical reproduction stages of flowering and pod setting are key to crop yield. Worldwide, the soybean stocks are less stressed than corn, due to a record crop coming out of South America. With this said, the soybean drama may be less intense than the corn was this TOM NEHER year. AgStar VP Agribusiness & Grain Specialist My wife is an elementary school Rochester teacher and teaches first grade. Once the calendar rolls around to August, I can see the subtle signs in her outlook; that the summer is almost over and school is about to begin. She starts counting down the weeks and determines how many projects on her “to do list” around the house will need to wait until next year. I see the excitement in her anticipation for a new class of students and the opportunity to make a difference in their young lives. All of this is mixed with a hint of anticipated weariness, as she knows how much hard work and dedication it takes to bring the gift of learning to young minds. Eventually, I see her starting to count the days until the school year begins. What I see during August in my wife’s anticipation about the school year is similar to what the grain

Global economics’ uncertainty sends money to the side The July heat did trim yield potential, but it remains to be seen by how much. The U.S. dollar turned higher this week after the debt ceiling issue was resolved. It garnered support from action in other nations also. The Bank of Japan went on a “buy-the-dollar, sell-the-yen” spree in an attempt to promote their export-based economy. Switzerland cut their interest rate to zero. A collapsing energy and stock market had marginal negative influence on ag commodities. Poor economic reports included lower-than-expected factory orders, the slowest July U.S. manufacturing activity since July 2009, and China’s manufacturing activity slowing for the fourth consecutive month. On the positive side, the July unemployment rate dropped 0.1 percent to 9.1 percent and non-farm payrolls in July jumped 117,000. OUTLOOK: The Aug. 11 USDA report will include the resurvey results for Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana in their updated balance sheets. This is the big unknown for the next week. Weather will be a lesser factor for corn, but moisture would be welcome to add to test weights. The December contract price range is outlined for now between $6.50 and $7.50 (contract high was $7.22
MARKETING
Hog optimism not seen in cattle TEALE, from pg. 16 momentum in the hog market and be cognizant of protecting inventories at substantially higher prices. The cattle market has not seen quite the optimism that the hog market has seen in the past month. The U.S. Department of Agriculture released a Monthly Cattle on Feed report as well as a Semiannual Cattle Inventory report on July 22. The on-feed number was stated as 104 percent as compared to the year earlier and the placement number was also 104 percent with the marketed number at 105 percent. This report was seen as negative with the exception of the marketed number. It appears that the hot weather has moved many cattle off of grass and into the feedlots as pastures dry up. As far as the inventory report, this reflects a cattle herd that is shrinking and would suggest that supplies will
be on the decrease in the months ahead. The problem will be to get through the near-term numbers which will weigh heavy on the market prices. The weather has not helped consumption of beef here in the United States, as heat has kept consumers away from purchasing beef especially for barbecue. The beef cutout has subsequently come under some pressure as of late and cattle prices have slipped on a live basis. With the economy still floundering, the demand for beef and all meats will be tested as the consumers will have less disposable income as the weeks go by. It would be prudent for producers to continue to lock-in inventories until there are major changes in the current fundamentals. A general statement regarding higher prices: Remember the old adage about the cure for high prices, is high prices. So caveat emptor; let the buyer beware.
Enjoy down-time before harvest year that my father-in-law’s family was planning a family reunion in Arkansas, during the first week of August. I am not sure what they were thinking of when they picked that date, in that location. I have finally become a northern Midwesterner and desire to take my vacations to the south in the January or February. Why would we want to leave this country during the summer? Take some time to enjoy your friends and families during this time before harvest. Get your rest and give thanks for the many blessings that you take for granted every day. There will be plenty of time for hard work and long hours during harvest. I know that many of you are starting to count the weeks.

“Where Farm and Family Meet”
NEHER, from pg. 16 markets experience. The crop is not finished, yet it is starting to show signs of winding down. The corn plants lose some of their luster after pollination is complete. The soybeans are not too far behind as pod set is just around the corner. The market starts to count the weeks until harvest and a crop in the bin. There is more confidence in yield potential and acres planted. Every day that passes is one less day that risk has to be factored into the price. During August, I also see farm families realizing that the summer is nearing the end and that if any family time is to be enjoyed before the harvest, they must make plans. In my case, I learned earlier this
3/4 set in June). SOYBEANS — Soybeans (and the energy markets) were the example this week of the de-risking we have been seeing in the markets. Uncertainty and unease over global economics has sent money to the sidelines. Gold benefited from this activity, hitting a new all-time high of $1,681.80 during the week and closing up $26.70 for the week. Since the critical yield determining month for soybeans is August and the weather looks agreeable for humans and plants, soybeans spent the week on the defensive. Yield estimates for soybeans are in the 42 to 43 bu./acre range (Informa was 42.5 bu./acre versus USDA’s 43.4 and last year’s 43.5 bu./acre final). Informa’s soybean production number is 3.139 billion bushels, down 64 million from their last estimate and 190 million less than last year’s final production figure. A Reuters’ poll of traders showed a yield estimate of 42.9 bu./acre. Soybeans will need another weather scare to take the lead to the upside. Soybean export sales reflected the earlier announcement that China rolled 550,000 metric tons of old crop soybean purchases to new crop. Net sales for the week were a negative 15 million bushels for old crop and a positive 40 million bushels for new crop. Soybean conditions dropped 2 percent as of Aug. 1 to 60 percent good/excellent. About 77 percent of the soybeans were blooming versus the 81 percent average; 34 percent were setting pods versus the 45 percent average. OUTLOOK: These markets will continue to focus on weather and yield potential, but don’t discount how economic markets may influence daily direction. With normal weather, soybeans may range between $13 and $14. If we see nice weather that range could extend down to $12; a dry August could push the range to $15/bu.

NYSTROM, from pg. 16 For the week, September corn was up 27 1/2 cents, settling at $6.93 and the December contract soared 34 1/4 cents higher at $7.03 per bushel. Typically, we see volatility pick up in July and August, and this year isn’t any different. Ethanol margins have been getting squeezed with the price of corn jumping higher and the price of ethanol suffering along with the entire energy sector. Crude oil traded to its lowest level since November 2010 this week, closing at $86.88 per barrel. U.S. broiler egg sets are 4 to 6 percent behind last year. Corn basis levels have also been retreating in conjunction with the September-to-December corn spread going to a carry. This lends to the idea that we’ll have enough corn to make it to new crop availability, due in part to the hot July weather pushing corn development along with the hottest July in 50 years in many parts of the Corn Belt. Corn ratings were unchanged as of Aug. 1: corn silking was 83 percent versus 84 percent average; dough stage 18 percent versus 23 percent average; dented 4 percent versus 5 percent average. In the ratings report, it is noteworthy that Illinois dropped 6 percent, Iowa fell 5 percent and Nebraska was 3 percent lower.

Those futures prices may sound great, but it’s the bottom line that really matters and that looked a little better in July as well, according to the USDA’s latest Ag Prices report. Increased milk prices covered rising feed costs. The All-Milk price was estimated at $22.10/cwt., up 90 cents from June, and the highest ever. The cost of feed to produce 100 pounds of milk was $11.57, up 29 cents from June, according to the CME’s Daily Dairy Report. Corn increased 8 cents, to $6.46 per bushel, soybeans were up 20 cents, to $13.40/bu., and alfalfa hay was up $9, to $189 per ton. All three were record highs, according to the DDR, which added; “Rising milk prices left income over feed costs of $10.53/cwt., 61 cents/cwt. higher than June. ... Over the last 10 years, income over feed costs has averaged $9.09/cwt.” National Milk Producers Federation’s Roger Cryan points out that “feed costs have risen since a month ago, but so have projected Class I milk prices, driven by rising cheese values.” As a result, Cryan does not see any Milk Income Loss Contract payments to dairy producers for this fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30. ■ Meanwhile, the cash block cheese price closed the first Friday in August at $2.1325/lb., down 2.25 cents on the week, but 53 cents above a year ago. Barrel closed at $2.1350, up a half-cent on the week, and 56.75 cents above a year ago. Sixteen cars of block and one of barrel traded hands on the week. The ever lagging NASS-surveyed U.S. average block price inched a half-cent higher, to $2.1062, while the barrels averaged $2.1344, down 0.2 cent. Butter closed the week at $2.1025, up a quarter-cent and 25.25 cents above a year ago. Six cars were sold. NASS butter averaged $2.0085, down 1.8 cents. NASS powder averaged $1.5832, up 2.9 cents, and dry whey averaged 55.91 cents, up 0.9 cent. ■ California’s Milk Producers Council July 29 newsletter questions whether current butter production being affected by the hot weather plus stocks on-hand will be sufficient to fully supply domestic and export demand. Heavy demand for cream for other uses is pulling product away from the churns, it said, and “while butter stocks
have risen sharply in the last two months, approaching levels of a year ago, they were not sufficient last year, and prices soared.” The MPC says “buyers are calculating the odds that butter production will be sufficient this fall to supply their customers’ needs. ... If they wait and the market busts like last year, they win. If they stock up now and the market busts they lose. If they hold off buying, and the market remains tight, they may lose one way or another. The price swing last year was a drop of 56 cents/lb. in four weeks followed by an increase of 60 cents five weeks later.” A buyer for a large grocery retailer in the Pacific Northwest shared some of the same consternation with me. “I can only wait so long to make a buy,” he said. “Do I buy now or wait for the price to fall?” Jerry Dryer, editor of the Dairy and Food Market Analyst, told me the United States is exporting a lot of butter right now and inventories are low. He sees little to no price relief for several months and said that some manufacturers have told him they expect butter to get as high as $2.75/lb. through the fall. By the way, the record high on butter was $2.81 in September 1998. ■ Speaking of retailers, the June consumer price index for all food is 227.4, up 3.7 percent from June 2010. The dairy products index is 212.3, up 7.2 percent from 2010. Fresh whole milk was up 10.9 percent; cheese, up 6.9 percent; and butter was up 21.7 percent. Checking the supply side, June butter production hit 140.7 million pounds, down 9.5 percent from May, but 20.1 percent above June 2010, according to the USDA’s Dairy Products report. Nonfat dry milk output, at 145.7 million pounds, was off 1.6 percent from May, but 6.4 percent above a year ago. American type cheese output, at 364.4 million pounds, was down 1.8 percent from May, and 1.5 percent below a year ago. Italian-type cheese, at 388.8 million pounds, was down 3.3 percent from May, and 4.5 percent below a year ago. Total cheese production amounted to 894.1 million pounds, down 2.3 percent from May, but 1.3 percent above a year ago. ■ See MIELKE, pg. 19

The FDA has since warned the manufacturer of “Muscle Milk.” Galen said that the label has bold letters “Muscle Milk,” but very fine print stating that it contains no milk. He said the NMPF is gratified the FDA has finally taken action against at least one company they believe is “playing fast and loose” with the regulations on what can and can’t be called milk.” The law actually states that a product calling itself milk has to be from the lactation of an animal, he said, and that cheese and yogurt are manufactured from a specific list of dairy ingredients and does not include beans, seeds, weeds, nuts or things like that. He said we’re seeing more of these “imitators,” something the NMPF warned of 10 years ago “if regulators did not do a good job of enforcing the letter of the law.” These products are often displayed in or near the dairy case and use similar packaging that real dairy products use, he said, but he hopes this “shot across the bow will prevent others from also misappropriating dairy terminology.” ••• Lee Mielke is a syndicated columnist who resides in Everson, Wash.

He cited Congressional Budget Office analysis showing the new program would save the federal government about $166 million over the next five years. However, the processor’s International Dairy Foods Association said the program creates new taxes on dairy farmers, by diverting a portion of assessments farmers would pay under certain conditions, to the U.S. Treasury. “Federal dairy policy is often a contentious issue among farmers,” Natzke said, “and adding the political issue of taxes to the discussion, especially in an upcoming election year, is sure to heat up the debate.” The grassroots tour meets next in Harrisburg, Pa., on Aug. 8; Syracuse, N.Y. on Aug. 10; Ocala, Fla., on Aug. 12; and finishes Aug. 22 in Nashville. ■ Class I needs are beginning to see increased interest as the opening of schools will begin in the next A rose by any other name is still a rose, so they few weeks in some regions. say (whoever they are), but that’s not the case with milk.

The USDA’s weekly milk production update says high temperatures the last week of July stressed cows and milk production declines of 10 percent and up were common. The South has had high temperatures but production was at expected levels in most cases. Florida had no loads of milk exported that week, the first time since November. Heat across the North Central and Eastern regions was detrimental to production. California and the Pacific Northwest were the exception from hot weather and milk declines.

In politics, after “dealing” with the debt ceiling, Congress is in recess until after Labor Day. The NMPF’s grassroots tour to sell their “Foundation for the Future” dairy policy proposal also took a break the first week of August. Dairy Profit Weekly editor, Dave Natzke, reported in Friday’s DairyLine radio broadcast that a roadblock in the debt ceiling debate was opposition to additional taxes, and taxes are now an added dimension to federal dairy policy discussions. During regional meetings to explain the Federation’s reform proposal, CEO Jerry Kozak, said that Foundation for the Future is not only a better safety net for dairy farmers, but also is more budgetfriendly than current federal dairy programs.

Get ready for the Eco Experience at the State Fair The Eco Experience, a 25,000square-foot interactive exhibit, returns for its sixth year at the Minnesota State Fair. With hands-on activities and free educational presentations, visitors can learn about water and air pollution, recycling, using less energy, climate change, green jobs, renewable energy, energy-efficient vehicles and transportation, and more. A healthy local foods area will feature samples, demonstrations and free activities for the whole family. Each day of the fair will see a different theme at the Eco Experience. Aug. 25: Save green. Smart eco choices are good for your wallet, too.
Aug. 26: Breathe right. Your choices help make the air cleaner for everyone. Aug. 27: Protect Minnesota’s water. In the Land of 10,000 Lakes, we can all take pride in having healthy lakes, rivers and groundwater. Aug. 28: Save energy. Reducing energy use makes a big impact. Aug. 29: Go green for kids. Create good habits for a better future. Aug. 30: Kick gas. Do it for your budget, your health and the environment. Aug. 31: Watch your waste. Reduce, reuse and recycle. What’s the next step? Sept. 1: Green jobs. A green economy
means jobs for more Minnesotans. Sept. 2: Grow green. Trees and other plants are an attractive addition to your home and benefit the environment. Sept. 3: Water conservation. Using less water saves energy and preserves resources for future generations. Sept. 4: Green your kitchen. Learn about Minnesota-grown foods, tools and trends for a green kitchen. Sept. 5: Gadgets for going green. Try new tools and fresh ideas to reduce energy use and waste. Immerse yourself in Green Crossing. Both familiar and futuristic, Green Crossing is a mini version of a walkable neighborhood with renewable energy, options
for remodeling, new construction ideas and transportation choices to reduce your energy footprint. The new and remodeled homes are safer, healthier, more energyefficient and durable. Common Cottage will show you how to improve the house you have. The house showcases renewable and recyclable materials, how to improve the energy efficiency of your home with an energy audit, composting and recycling systems, indoor air quality, eco-friendly kitchen surfaces and appliances as well as a patio and backyard chickens.
