Commentary: What really triggers a resource crisis? During a symposium held recently at the Holocaust Memorial Museum, Yale historian Tim Snyder told the attendees: “Climate change acts as a multiplier” of other resource crises leading to “the ecological panic that I’m afraid will lead to mass killings in the decades to come.” In his attempt to predict the future, he is relying on historic resource crises that have led to mass killings, revolts, invasions and famines. However, almost all of those resource crises came during the Earth’s “little ice ages,” not during our planet’s warm cycles. (Neither Hitler nor Mao Tse Tung were driven by resource crises; Japan may have thought it was, but their invasion of China cost a terrible price.) On the whole, the warmings have been the good times. The long summers, sunny skies and moderate rainfall in the Medieval Warming tripled human numbers around the globe, according to respected Medieval population scholar Josiah Russell. The long Roman Warming delivered similar benefits, with ample food and a massive increase in economic growth, trade and prosperity. The key resource crises have always been about food. It’s hard to grow much food if your farmers are beset by short, cold, cloudy summers, century-long droughts and violent, flooding storms. The six cultural collapses in Egypt’s famously fertile Nile Valley were all caused by centuries of too little rainfall in the Sudanese and Ethiopian highlands during the “little ice ages.” Half the Egyptians may have
died in the resulting famines, and records say that parents literally ate their own children. That was truly a resource crisis. The famed Bronze Age collapse occurred at 1200 BC because of a global stab of cold and storms. Roads turned to mud, and sea-storms sank ships. Making bronze required tin, and the ships could no longer safely reach the major tin mines in southern England, Turkey and the Malay Peninsula. The Greeks, the Hittites in Turkey, the Egyptians, the Akkadian Empire in the Tigris-Euphrates valley, the Harappans in northwestern India, the steppe nomads on the grasslands across Eurasia and several cultures in China all collapsed. For several centuries, famine ruled most of the populated world. Dian Zhang calculates that 80 percent of China’s wars, rebellions and failed dynasties have come during the floods, droughts and famines of its “little ice ages.” What comparable “resource crises” does Snyder see in our globally warmed future? The global computer models’ predictions have already failed. We have no reason to expect their predictions of sudden catastrophic warming to come true. Nor has the UN’s climate panel told its computers about the long, natural 1,500-year climate cycle. The Dansgaard-Oeschger cycle has afflicted humanity with eight “little ice ages” since the last Ice Age. However, it has also given us an equal number of warm, stable centuries-long warmings. Humanity only began to rise above the “little ice

age” famines as we began to develop high-yield farming, out of desperation, toward the end of the last Little Ice Age (AD 1200-1850). The new gang plow permitted cropping the heaviest, richest bottomlands for the first time. The mechanical seeder allowed planting in rows, so the crops could be weeded. The potato and tomato came from the New World. Turnips, from China, permitted a livestock feed crop after the grains were harvested. History tells us that if we have food, the other resource crises can be handled. In the current Corn Belt drought, our grain and yields will still be about six times as high as during the Dust Bowl days of the 1930s. We have developed no-till farming during the intervening 80 plus years to protect the land from erosion when drought events happen. Our biggest recent mistake has been to put a sizable percentage of our food crops into corn ethanol — so the U.S. drought will now drive up the costs of both food and fuel to excruciating levels. Take the food out of our gas tanks and put it back on the table. Reinvigorate high-yield farming research. Our ancestors coped with the “resource crises” as long as they could eat.

The caption for the photo in the last issue of The Land of the log cabin with the story “Minnesota’s Dakota War: Personal accounts behind the scene” should have read that the Omsrud log cabin built by Torgrim Torgimson in 1857 can now be seen at a Brown County Park on Lake Hanska. That story also should have stated that Torgrim Torgimson gave each of his three sons a farm before his death in 1892. ❖

Angel Hair with Bacon and Sweet Corn 8 ounces angel hair pasta 8 ounces bacon, chopped 2 ears of uncooked sweet corn 1 tomato, diced 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, cut into strips 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until al dente. While the pasta is boiling, fry the bacon in a medium sauté pan. When bacon gets crispy, drain off fat and wrap in paper towels to remove any excess fat. Use a knife to carefully cut the kernels off the ears of corn. Drain the pasta. Transfer pasta, bacon and corn to a large bowl. Add tomato, basil, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Fold everything together. Top with grated parmesan and a squeeze of lemon juice. Use roasted chicken or eggs in place of the bacon to get more protein in this dish. ■ A nice soup for any time of the year, Red Lentil soup is so flavorful and toothsome you don’t notice it’s meatless.

Red Lentil Soup 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1-2 tablespoons curry powder (or chili powder) 1 small onion, minced 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon minced jalapeno 1 cup coconut milk 1 cup red lentils, rinsed 3 cups water or stock Optional additions: 1 cup plain yogurt, 1/4 cup diced tomatoes, 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, 1
teaspoon minced fresh ginger In a large stock pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add the curry powder and toast for a few seconds, then add onion, garlic, jalapeno and coconut milk. Stir together and let cook 5 minutes. Add lentils and water or stock. Bring to a boil, then turn heat down and let simmer until lentils are tender, about 20-30 minutes. If desired, add yogurt, tomatoes, cilantro and ginger. Adjust flavor with salt. Either serve as is, or puree in batches in a blender for a smooth consistency. The soup is fantastic with warm bread or tortillas and a little more yogurt and chopped jalapenos on top. ■ Now’s the time to make a truly awesome marinara sauce with fresh local produce. You will feel SOOO good about yourself, it will be a sin in many religions. This recipe doesn’t have to cook all day, either. Basil Marinara 2 tablespoon olive oil 2 tablespoons chopped garlic 2 onions, chopped 2 tablespoons dried Italian herb mixture (basil, oregano, parsley) 1/2 cup tomato paste 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar 1/2 cup red wine 4 ripe tomatoes, chopped 1/4 cup fresh basil 4 cups cooked pasta Optional additions: Chopped or minced carrots, sweet bell peppers, fresh parsley. In a deep, heavy, non-aluminum pot, warm olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and stir. Add the onions and stir. Add the dried herbs, tomato paste, vinegar and wine, and stir. Finally, add the tomatoes. Stir, bringing to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat so that the sauce barely simmers and begins to thicken. Add basil and any of the optional ingredients, if desired; stir again. Adjust flavor with salt, pepper and a bit of molasses or brown sugar. Combine cooked pasta with marinara in a large serving bowl. Makes about 4 cups marinara. Look for the reviewed cookbook at a bookstore or a library near you.

“Where Farm and Family Meet”
By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer A big draw of Farmfest is the diversity of products and ideas on display. Consider Ryan Pierce, who was pitching growing radish — specifically “Tillage Radish” — as a fall-seeded cover crop that can markedly improve soil fertility, reduce fall tillage and produce higher yields in both corn and soybeans. Working for Producer’s Choice Seed Co. in Jordan, Minn., Pierce said their primary objective at Farmfest was to push the idea of late-summer, early fall seeding of Tillage Radish. “We want a 30-day growing cycle minimum so getting it seeded at least 30 days ahead of first frost is important,” he said. Breaking up the hardpan is the first bonus of Tillage Radish. With the extreme moisture this spring followed by this hot, dry growing season, Pierce contends that soil compaction is huge in most fields. An additional bonus is better fertility. “The deep taproot of the radish brings soil nutrients back to the subsurface,” he said. “The radish uses the P, K and nitrogen that leached into the ground in previous years back up to where it’s readily available for newly planted crops come spring. “You’re going to be having 25 to 40 units of additional N brought back up for your crop. An Iowa farmer stopped at our Farmfest booth to share his experience last year when he planted radish as a fall cover crop. His corn last year ran 160 to 175 bushel. Where he did not have the radishes planted, he harvested only 60 to 70 bushel corn. Yes, that’s extreme but he theorizes that the corn root followed down the tap root depth of the radishes. We refer to that as the ‘tunnel system.’” Pierce said all of that additional yield isn’t due to micro-nutrients being refracted back up into the soil. His corn plants in the radish field also had access to moisture because of the deep tap roots of the radish which provided the same delivery system for the corn roots. A handout said: “Tillage Radish helps bring the good critters while keeping bad guys at bay, all without the use of pesticides. Earthworms love it; nematodes hate it. How?

The results are water and oxygen effectively infiltrating the soil which works to increase organic matter and microbial activity.” Tillage Radish is both a magnet to highly beneficial earthworms and a virtual shield to suppress pesky nematodes. Pierce describes it as a “bio-drilling taproot.” The tuber narrows at the compaction point in the soil, sending out the taproot, boring down into the subsoil up to 30 inches in depth. Tillage Radish seed for 2013 is being harvested now in August by different growers for Cover Crop Solutions, corporate name of a family of cover crop seeds which also includes annual ryegrass, winter triticale, phacelia and nitrogen-producing cover crop legumes such as winter pears, crimson clover, lupin

Feed availability now driving livestock industry By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Brian Buhr, University of Minnesota Applied Economics department head, makes no bones about the future of the livestock industry: “A tumultuous market is what’s ahead. Feed prices are the root core.” He also noted hay prices and hay supplies are tight with lots of Minnesota hay being trucked daily to southern markets. Also grazing land is showing a world of hurt. “Cattle liquidation has already started even up here in Minnesota where feed shortages aren’t an issue. But nationwide, it’s likely to get heavier as these corn yields keep shrinking across the Corn Belt. Short term cattlemen are seeing higher prices on everything they purchase but because of liquidation, they’re seeing lower prices on the cattle they market. Right now it’s a worst case scenario,” Buhr said. The big unknown is how long until livestock prices start rebounding. “It depends upon how long that tail is. Right now feed availability is driving that decision,” he said. So what advice for a cattle feeder today? Buhr point blank said it’s an impossible question for many cattlemen, especially if they are corn growers. “If you are growing corn, do you consider liquidating the cattle and instead start selling your grain? Com-
Rewind mercial producers perhaps want to see that corn keep com- Brian Buhr ing to ethanol plants because distiller’s byproducts can cheapen rations considerably. “But it looks now like this liquidation phase could run into the fall, even early winter season. How fast somewhat depends on the farrowing schedules for the pork producer; on feed availability for the feeder, and on drydown time and lagging productivity for the dairyman. Already near-by prices are showing some of that downward pressure; distant contracts are likely to soon be reflecting the same trend on live animals. “If you’re buying feeders, locking in these downward trending prices is an option but obviously grain prices may be the stronger risk. Congress is talking ‘disaster payment’ support as part of the next U.S. Department of Agriculture farm bill. The reality indicates that needs to be part of the ‘disaster’ mix, even if just temporary.” Brian Buhr was interviewed at the recent Farmfest in Redwood County, Minn. ❖

cover crop,” he said, “is to grow small grains in the headlands of your corn and soybean fields; then after harvesting the small grain drill in a seeding of radish. But technically we’re not selling the radish; we’re selling a tillage process.” He cautioned about seeding into soybeans too early. Get too much radish growth and you’re clipping radish tops as you’re cutting your soybeans. So timing is a bit of a challenge. He suggested the first of September as latest for seeding radish in south central Minnesota and northern Iowa. What makes Tillage Radish work: • Germinates in two to three days if adequate moisture is available.
• Foliage spreads out to fill ground space and shade out weeds. • The tuber and thick foliage are storehouse for nutrients. • Grow to a height of 12 to 24 inches depending upon when it was planted. • Increases the soil’s bacteriovores who feed on nematodes and increases the N cycling process mineralizing available N, P, Ca and S. • Deep taproot pulls up nutrients, allows increased water infiltration, establishes a root trail for the next crop, stores water in the soil profile.

Cattlemen face new generation of challenges By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer There’s a new generation of Americans out there and talking to them pretty much depends on your electronic skills with iPad, Twitter, Facebook, your fully app’d cell phone, and perhaps an occasional e-mail message. Don Schiefelbein, Minnesota State Cattlemen’s Association president, spoke at a Farmfest forum on future challenges for the livestock industry, including communicating with the 20to 35-year-old consumer group known as “the New Millennium.”
Rewind funds and other programs what we need to do in the beef Don Schiefelbein industry is inundate with facts. This New Millennium seems to feed off electronic sound bites. We need to bombard the electronic media with factoids about the safety and nutritional value of finely textured beef.” Schiefelbein suggested that emotion typically becomes the winner when two sides present competing facts.
So the question today for the beef industry is how good a ‘front line’ do we have. I’m talking about those people who are squarely in front of a consumer. If an issue comes up, how readily and how quickly can our ‘front line’ people rise to the occasion?. — Don Schiefelbein
“As soon as this New Millennium got a hold of it, what happened? The thing went viral on us. It was instantly contagious across America. It caught us terrifically off guard. We had no immediate defense. And suddenly ‘pink slime’ cost the U.S. beef industry millions of dollars.
“So the question today for the beef industry is how good a ‘front line’ do we have. I’m talking about those people who are squarely in front of a consumer. If an issue comes up, how readily and how quickly can our ‘front line’ people rise to the occasion?”

“The emotional element often surfaces when fact takes on fact so our future image boils down to how are we going to ramp up to the speed of the Millennium.
“We’ve got to strengthen that front line. We’ve got to make our front line absolutely, positively defendable so that when an issue arises before these New Millenniums, SafeWay comes to bat and says ‘No way, we’re not pulling that product. It’s USDA graded. It’s nutritionally superior and it tastes good.’ “When the question about chickens in cages gets raised we have to say ‘yes they are and do you know why that is the smartest way of producing your eggs?’ “I think what we really need to do when these ‘speed of information’ events occur is immediately share our positive reaction. A story in today’s world blows up real quick because of instantaneous media explosion. But it’s almost like a weather maker. We see if there are any takers and if there aren’t any takers, it blows over and they rapidly are on the next media story.

Beef-dairy-hay-grain operation features Charolais By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Charolais has a lot to offer. With cross-bred type cows, the Charolais bull is a good choice according to Greg Holtz. He’s now 15 years into the bull business and holds an annual bull sale late-April on the Holtz farm. So far most of their bulls sell into the Midwest market but he sees an expanding market. That’s why they’ve worked into a partnership with a major Colorado Charolais breeder. Holtz said the bull business has been good but he’s noticing some “pull back” recently. Also renting out a bull just doesn’t pencil out very well these days. “It’s hard to rent out a bull for the season at $400, $500 when he’s going to lose 400 pounds. With cull bull prices at $1.10 to $1.20 that weight loss by the time you get your bull back again just doesn’t work,” Holtz said.
Most of their bulls get sold at 14 to 15 months of age, ready for service. Each year they send out a brochure to prospective buyers. Sale-day buyers can walk the line inspecting each bull. Even with the world economy in question, Holtz is optimistic about the livestock business, noting that it used to be a matter of competing against your livestock-raising neighbor, “but today it seems we’re competing against the world.” “Yes, tremendous changes in this livestock economy these days and it’s not just the price of corn anymore that determines your future,” he said. “It’s what’s happening in Brazil, and how much longer will China, Japan and our Asian friends want to keep on buying American beef?” Greg Holtz and his brothers John and Bennie — collectively HB Farms See HOLTZ, pg. 11

Charolais result of pasture tragedy
Ralph and Carla Hanneken, both with full-time, non-farm jobs started raising their own registered Angus in 1996 with the purchase of five bred heifers. They started marketing bulls in 2000 and had their seventh production sale in March. You don’t see any blue ribbons at their farm as they never got into showing cattle. Nor do you see much in the way of buildings. Their cattle never see a building except when calving. They focus on raising seedstock to perform and make profits for the people who buy their cattle. They bred about 130 cows and heifers this past spring extensively using artificial insemination plus
some embryo transfer with clean up bulls to follow. Cows graze on pasture starting early May. They are brought home for weaning in the fall; after harvest they go back out to graze on corn stalks. Calving starts late-January with heifers first; cows calving in February and March. “Even though our cattle and calves are outdoors virtually year round, we seldom have an issue with predators,” Ralph said. Rotational grazing with lots of fresh water access is key to their costeffective cow-calf business. The farm has a variety of handling facilities because for the first 15 years or so it was essentially a one-man operation with Ralph doing the vaccinating, weaning, sorting, hauling and calving. ❖
Six youth elected to the NJAA board Twelve young men and women represent the Angus breed as the National Junior Angus Association Board of Directors. At the 2012 National Junior Angus Show, six young people were elected by their peers to serve on the board. Elected to the 2012-13 NJAA Board of Directors were: Lucas Nord, Wolverton, Minn.; Jena Wagner, Billings, Mont.; Jacy Alsup, Gravette, Ark.; Paige Wallace, Stotts City, Mo.; Daniel McFarland, Keithville, La.; and Maggie Jasper, Versailles, Ky. The newly elected directors were chosen by dele-
gates representing each state at the 2012 NJAS in Louisville, Ky. They will serve a two-year term and travel across the country to various events, promoting the Angus breed and helping young people succeed in the NJAA. The NJAA board members’ first activity is the Leaders Engaged in Angus Development conference in Fort Collins, Colo., Aug. 2-5. Nord has been involved in the Minnesota Junior Angus Association since 2001, serving as the membership and communications director. This fall, he will be entering his sophomore year at South Dakota State University majoring in animal science. ❖

HOLTZ, from pg. 10 — come from a rich history of farming. In the spring of 1927 while working at Hennepin Paper Mill in Little Falls, Minn., their great grandfather purchased a team of horses and wagon and moved his family to a farm near Sobieski, Minn. At that time they had a log barn to house their stock. Dairy farming had become a Holtz tradition. The three brothers knew they wanted to continue in agriculture but also added to their management skills by attending Ridgewater Technical College in Willmar, Minn. In the early 1990s John and Greg bought their first herd of beef cows. In 1998 disaster struck — the cattle were out on pasture and got into a pile of ashes from treated lumber. All the cattle died from arsenic poisoning. It was at this point that they bought their first 50 head of registered Charolais cows. In 2005 they got into the dairy business by leasing an entire dairy facility which now has about 220 cows with Bennie taking over as herdsman in 2007. (He and his wife, Brittany, were featured in a 2010 “From the Fields” series of stories in The Land.) The brothers built a heifer shed and no longer hire a custom grower to raise their heifers. They soon built a second heifer barn for the larger heifers and dry cows. This farm is now home to approximately 200 beef cows and calves plus 400 Holstein heifers and dry cows. That much livestock suggests a significant cropping program, too. HB Farms grows about 700 acres corn, 200 acres alfalfa, 300 acres grass for hay along with approximately 1,200 acres of pasture for the beef cows. The three brothers divide responsibilities with John essentially managing the crops and livestock operations; Greg doing the genetics and breeding on the beef and dairy cattle (plus full time herdsman at a nearby dairy); and Bennie running the 220-cow dairy operation plus helping at the beef heifer operation when time allows. “We’re busy but we like it that way. We’re building an earthen basin manure pit at the dairy facility this year which will provide yearly storage for that operation. And maybe some more cement and a few more dairy cows for Bennie. “Renting works well. One hand feeds the other. It’s a matter of doing with what you’ve got,” Greg said. ❖

Calf feeders call for setting own feeding schedule By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Called the ID-TEK Auto Calf Feeder, it’s just what it says. Lon Johnson, location manager for Centra Sota in Little Falls, Minn., described the system at the Virnig Dairy near Pierz, Minn., which has two units in place. “One unit will take care of 25 calves. The Virnigs are milking about 125 to 130 cows in their two robotic systems so two of these calf feeders are enough even in peak freshening periods,” Johnson said. So what’s the technology? Each calf has an ear tag. When the calves come to feed, the ID Feeder reads the tag and starts mixing milk replacer with warmed water according to the specifics of that calf. “It can feed one pint of milk replacer up to 15 times per 24-hour period. So instead of gulping down two quarts at one feeding your calves are getting
lesser amounts at several times throughout the day. This is much healthier for the calves. And even though we have calves going to the nipple 15 times a day, we see very little naval sucking,” Johnson said. He said these automated feeders are simple to hookup. They have a 25-pound milk powder hopper and a one-gallon water heater. So the dairy farmer needs only to make a connection to running water and electricity. Each station even has a user-friendly computer that shows how much calves drank today and yesterday. The unit includes the 25 ear tags which can be fitted to the next batch of calves also. Johnson suggests a separate calf rearing room with insulation keeps everything more sanitary and reduces flies. Centra Sota is pricing these units at $2,650, the equivalent of just over $100 per calf. “This puts them in the price range for the average dairy farmer. It takes about 15

Cover story: Field of beans has become field of dreams line; 315 feet left field line, 375 feet center field and a 6-foot tall flex chain-link fence enclosing the entire field. It even sports 69 baseball seats from the old Camden Yards baseball field picked up by Bob and Peggy in a quick trip to Indiana. Eventually this ambitious crew hopes to have lights installed. Perhaps their Stadium Seating package will help pay the bill. When you buy your $50 season pass you get a free beverage and hotdog at every game. For now Minnesota, for certain Redwood County, can indeed proudly claim its own Field of Dreams. The Milroy Irish finished the 2012 season with 18 wins and 16 losses in their first season at the new stadium before losing to Wilmont in the 13C Regional Playoffs. Indeed Irish eyes were smiling at Irish Yard in 2012. And with even more young ballplayers trying out for the team in 2013 a few Irish Jigs might be common at the Irish Yard next year. For more information on this baseball field you can contact Bob Dolan at bobdolan4@gmail.com. ❖

Dolan said they looked at many pieces of land but nothing made more sense than this piece of ground by the corn thresher parked along Dayton Avenue. Soon even Zwachska agreed this was the perfect setting. A 35-foottall hill backgrounds the park on the west side. Located about four miles southwest of Vesta, Irish Yard has plenty of parking. Matter of fact some folks park their car overlooking the ballpark and stay there for the entire ball game, except perhaps to get a barbecued sandwich, pickles, chips and beverages (even cold beer if you’re old enough), or use the bathroom. “Being raised in a baseball family with eight boys and my father, Joe, who was also a baseball player and huge fan, it was only natural to want to build our own field,” Bob said. “We thought building a baseball field would be easy. Move some dirt, plant some grass, build some dugouts, and play ball. But we soon found it takes a lot of capital and even more work. The ambition was there despite a few obstacles. The farmer renting the land planted the field to soybeans in 2010. Also we knew it would take $30,000 to $40,000 to get it started.” The Minnesota Twins came to the rescue with their Community Baseball program and a $10,000 grant for the
project. The State Bank of Lucan provided a “start up” loan. “Now it was July 2010 and time to build a baseball field. We cut the beans and disked them under just like the movie ‘Field of Dreams’.” It was July 27, 2010, and Dolan started thinking that in 10 months they were going to be playing baseball on this new field. But no way. It took all of 2011 to get this field ready for baseball. “Our board of directors, our families and many other families worked the concession stands at both Twins and Vikings games to raise more money. But thanks to neighbors, friends and especially family, this dream is now a reality,” Dolan said. “We were laughed at and told this was a big mistake. We said nothing but worked even harder to make this happen. People said we should play at Vesta or Lucan on their softball fields. We just smiled and took the high road. We also knew that with God, all things are possible.” Yes, it’s a nifty field. And good dimensions with 302 feet down the right field

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Called the Irish Yard, this new baseball field in Minnesota was growing soybeans in 2010. This year the Irish Yard is home field for the Milroy Irish, members of the Gopher League which also includes Wilmont, Luverne, Pipestone, Adrian, Hadley, Tracy and Minneota. Even though it took until June 2 before the Irish Yard was ready for baseball, once the umpire yelled “play ball” this beautiful new field hosted 14 games in 2012. The project was organized by a few local Irish folks. The board of directors includes President Bob Dolan, Vice President Tom Ogdahl, Treasurer Neil Dolan, Secretary Peggy Dolan, plus Ron Madison, Tammy Ogdahl and Todd Ellis. Irish blood certainly runs deep, but well-behaved Norwegians are accepted as well. Seven Dolans are on the club roster including Neil Dolan, 48, and Bob Dolan, 45, who happens to be an adequate first baseman when needed. He’s also manager of the Irish and was instrumental in building this baseball field. Bob’s great-grandfather immigrated from Ireland settling in the Green Isle area. Bob tells the story. “When Peggy and I sat down with Jim and Kathy Zwachska in the fall of 2009, the look on Jim’s face was very transparent. He was very quiet, but I know he was thinking ‘Are you crazy?’ That was the first time we approached them to buy their six-acre plot of land to build our field of dreams.”

On July 24, the National Drought Mitigation Center announced that 53 percent of the United States was experiencing a moderate to exceptional drought. Drought conditions have severely reduced the supply of hay and other feedstuffs, escalating the demand and driving up prices. At the July 24 hay auction in Pipestone, Minn., supreme quality alfalfa hay brought a high of $260 per ton, while grass-alfalfa mixed hay brought a high of $200/ton. Grass hay was slightly lower at $180/ton. To prepare for higher prices, livestock owners should consider these tips from University of Minnesota Extension. • Keep in mind that quality forage should be the backbone of the livestock diet. For cattle producers, corn silage, alfalfa or grass haylage, and straw can be added to the diet; however, the drought has affected the supply and price of these feedstuffs as well. For horse owners, forage (in the form of hay or pasture) should comprise a minimum of two-thirds of their diet. Few forage alternatives exist for horses. • If purchasing drought-stressed forage (hay products or corn silage), the forage should be tested for nitrates. Nitrates can accumulate in stems and stalks of drought-stressed plants. Once livestock consume the forage, nitrates turn into nitrites, which bind to red blood cells, preventing the cells from carrying oxygen to tissues. Two cases of nitrate toxicity have recently been reported in Wisconsin cattle herds. On a positive note, drought-affected alfalfa usually has a higher leaf-stem ration, resulting in better quality. • If possible, consider adding hay storage to reduce the effects of sea-
sonal price fluctuations. Hay is usually more affordable when purchased during the growing season compared to the winter months. • If purchasing hay, buy it early. Waiting for later cuttings (which are usually higher in quality) puts livestock owners at risk of limited late-season supplies and higher prices. Having a good working relationship with a hay supplier can help ensure a consistent and reliable source of hay products and/or corn silage. • Plan in advance. Budget for the price increases in feedstuffs and reevaluate how many livestock you can afford to feed. Unfortunately, increases in feedstuffs are not always balanced by higher prices for livestock products. • Finally, try and keep the hay type (grass or alfalfa) or forage product consistent in the diet or ration. Constantly changing hay types can lead to health problems, especially with horses, and can affect production outcomes in cattle. This article was submitted by Krishona Martinson, an equine specialist with University of Minnesota Extension. ❖
Market spotlight remains on the country’s hot weather ducers who have been suffering years of difficult finances, pointing to the large loss of equity among dairy farmers in 2009. “They can’t borrow their way through poor margins,” Sharp said, and beef producers are in a similar situation so she expects large culling ahead and “continued contraction.” ■ Reporting on this week’s Livestock,
Dairy, and Poultry Outlook, the DDR said “poor margins have encouraged strong culling and declining production per cow. USDA lowered its milk yield per cow to 21,830 pounds in 2013, down from its 22,060 pound forecast in July. USDA also expects the dairy herd to average 9.11 million head in 2013, 35,000 cows lower than its July forecast, down 115,000 head

MIELKE, from pg. 15 versus 2012, and the smallest herd since 2005.” Next year’s milk production is expected to be 198.9 billion pounds, down 1.4 percent from the July forecast and the DDR reported that, if realized, this would be the first year-over-year decline in milk production since 2009 and the largest annual decline in milk production since 2001. Meanwhile; June fluid milk sales amounted to 4.1 billion pounds according to the USDA’s estimates, down 0.3 percent from June 2011 and 0.8 percent lower after adjusting for calendar composition. Estimated sales of total conventional fluid milk products decreased 0.5 percent from June 2011 and estimated sales of total organic fluid milk products fell 3.9 percent from a year earlier. California’s September Class I milk price is $19.34 per hundredweight for the north and $19.61 for the south. Both are up $1.33 from August but $4.23 below September 2011. The 2012 Class I average now stands at $17.99, down from $20.64 at this time a year ago, and compares to $16.46 in 2010. The southern average is $18.26, down from $20.91 a year ago and compares to $16.74 in 2010. The USDA announces the federal order Class I base Aug. 22. ■ Speaking of California, the Western United Dairymen’s recent petition for an emergency hearing on California’s Class 4b milk pricing formula and a sixmonth, 50 cents/cwt. increase in the minimum price for all classes of milk has drawn responses from dairy producers and processors. Dairy Profit Weekly reports that on Aug. 6, the WUD petitioned the California Department of Food and Agriculture, asking for an emergency hearing on two proposals. First is emergency price relief due to the current financial pressures on dairy producers, notably due to extremely high feed costs. The WUD is requesting a six-month (October 2012 through March 2013) increase of 50 cents/cwt. on the minimum milk prices for all classes of milk. Second they seek changes to the whey value of the 4b pricing formula. The WUD is requesting the cap of 75 cents/cwt. to be removed, proposing a scale that mirrors more closely the whey value under the federal milk marketing order Class III milk pricing formula. Both the Class 4b and Class III milk pricing formulas are used for milk processed into cheese. In a move to address concerns of small cheese makers, the WUD proposed a dry whey exemption on the first 100,000 pounds of milk processed daily and would be only on the whey portion of the Class 4b formula. You’ll recall that, following a May 31-June 1 hearing, a CDFA panel recommended no change in the state’s 4b pricing formula whey factor. However, See MIELKE, pg. 17
Thought 2009 was bad? Take a look at this year CDFA secretary Karen Ross gave dairy producers a small concession, increasing the whey factor cap by 10 cents/cwt., effective Aug. 1. She also announced creation of a California Dairy Future Task Force, charged with developing recommendations for structural changes to California’s dairy pricing formulas and other milk marketing regulations.

Grain Angles 2012 drought labeled ‘late’
Traveling throughout the Midwest, it is obvious that this year’s drought is the “real thing.” The crop damage has been more extensive than we have seen since the 1988 drought. In 1988 the drought was an “early drought” that saw some recovery later in the growing season. The drought of 2012 was a “late drought,” following an early, wet spring. The excessive heat just nailed the corn crop during pollination. Many in the markets have held out hope for late-season rains to aid the soybean crop’s development. In some areas they received timely rains. Yet in other areas the crop is dying in the field. On Aug. 10, the U.S. DepartTOM NEHER ment of Agriculture published AgStar VP & Team their monthly U.S. supply and Leader — Grain Industry demand report. Their estimates Rochester, Minn. suggest a 2.2 billion bushel reduction in the corn crop, bringing in a 10.8 billion bushel crop. The average U.S. corn yield was reduced 22.6 bushels per acre to 123.4 bushels as extreme heat and dryness continued during July across the Plains and Corn Belt. As forecast the 2012-13 corn yield would be the lowest since 1995-96. Soybean production for 2012-13 is estimated at 2.7 billion bushels, down 358 million bushels due to the lower harvested acre and yields. U.S. wheat supplies for 2012-13 were raised 54 million bushels with higher forecasted production and an increase in projected imports from Canada. The drought of 2012-13 is a fact and I don’t know much more to say about it without sounding like a “broken record.” I talk to people in the trade, read the newswires and research. Everyone seems to be saying the same things. We all know that the crop is greatly damaged in many areas and that demand is

The first few weeks of August have seen the livestock markets moving in opposite directions. Cattle have moved to an improving price structure, while the hog market continues to slide to lower prices. The cattle market reversed the recent slide in prices fueled by good buying in the futures market and an improving beef cutout. Managed money reentered the futures early in the month pushing the futures to a large premium to the cash market. This action allowed the packer to become more aggressive in their bidding for live inventory. At the same time, the packers were pushing hard to increase the prices for boxed beef to improve their marJOE TEALE gins. The boxed beef responded well Broker as buying for the Labor Day weekend Great Plains Commodity surfaced at the same time.

The question will be can the momentum carry the cattle market after the Labor Day buying is complete. From a seasonal standpoint, it would not be likely that prices would continue to improve into the fall months. With competitive meats considerable better value to the consumer and a faltering economy the prospects for higher prices being sustained seem remote at this time despite the possibility of dwindling cattle numbers. The hog market has been the complete opposite of the cattle market over the past several weeks. Hog prices have been on a steady decline mainly due to the increased marketing of live inventory. This has kept the packer supplied with plenty of pork to move through the retail and export markets. Because

The following market analysis is for the week ending Aug. 17. CORN — Corn retreated this week in post-U.S. Department of Agriculture crop report trading as the weather pattern turned cooler with scattered rainfall over the Midwest. It’s probably unlikely that corn will benefit significantly from the weather flip, but test weight could be improved. The U.S. drought monitor indicated that the U.S. drought-affected areas shrank to 61.8 percent from 62.5 percent the previous week. Another benefit derived from the weather change was an PHYLLIS NYSTROM improvement in basis levels. We Country Hedging St. Paul were headed full steam ahead to harvest, but maturity has been slowed and end-users have had to push basis levels to keep corn moving until harvest gains momentum. There were reports that corn from the Memphis area was moving north by barge to fill processor demand. Early yield reports have a wide range, but the perception so far is that they are as expected; if 70 bushels per acre was expected, that’s what they are seeing, if 140 bu./acre was expected, that’s being seen also. There has been aflatoxin reported in southern Illinois, but no one has raised a red flag that it’s unmanageable. Crop conditions were unchanged in the week ending Aug.12 at 23 percent good/excellent. After the weather-inspired drop to start the week, prices spent the balance of the week struggling to get back to the weekly high set on Monday. Strength in the wheat market helped to pull corn back with Russia lowering their wheat production estimate and Strategie Grains lowering Europe’s corn crop estimate to 58.1 million metric tons when the USDA is carrying them at 61.5 mmt.

Soybeans putting in a mixed market performace NYSTROM, from pg. 19 The Farm Service Agency released preliminary planted and prevented planted acreage using certified acreage information. The report’s implication was that corn acres could show an increase of 90,000 to 1.3 million acres. The FSA numbers were mainly considered a non-factor since they vary so much year to year as compared to the USDA numbers. Weekly export sales were a disappointment at 4.8 million bushels for old crop and 5.1 million for new crop. Mexico bought 118,000 mt of U.S. sorghum for 2012-13 during the week. The market is waiting confirmation as to whether Brazilian corn is headed to the U.S. Gulf. Weekly ethanol production was up 2,000 barrels per day at 819,000 bpd. Ethanol stocks fell to 18.4 million barrels from 18.7 million. This is the lowest level since December 2011. The United States imported 88 million gallons of Brazilian ethanol, the most since 2008.

have requested a temporary suspension of the ethanol mandate. It is not expected that a waiver will be granted. It looks unlikely that anything will be done before the November election. An analysis done by Purdue University concluded that corn prices would fall only $0.40 to $1.30 per bushel, depending on how much the mandate was lowered and in conjunction with how bad the drought is affecting the crop. Since 2012 has only a few months left, margins have improved for ethanol production, and ethanol blenders reportedly may have almost half of what they’ll need for the rest of 2012 stockpiled, any cut this year would have a minimal effect. As long as economics say produce and use ethanol, the industry will, no matter what the mandate is. There were also reports this week that releasing crude oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve was being considered by the White House. The bigger question is what happens in 2013 for the ethanol mandate. OUTLOOK: The ProFarmer crop

weeks also contributing to the growing inventories of available pork supplies. This liquidation should be noted as far as future total inventories of hogs as herd size in the industry could dramatically decline in the latter part of the year and into next year. For the near term it would appear that prices should be at a level where they begin to stabilize unless further herd liquidation occurs to pressure the market.❖

When the dust settled for the week, December corn was down 2 cents at $8.07 1/4 per bushel. Look for continued volatility and wide ranges. SOYBEANS — Soybeans put in a mixed performance this week after crop conditions as of Aug. 12 improved 1 percent in the good/excellent category to 30 percent. Soybeans setting pods was 83 percent versus 70 percent on average. Soybean basis levels continue to climb higher with processors having to really stretch geographically to source supplies. There were reports of up to SX+100 being paid at processors. August soybean receipts were canceled as the week ended, indicating beans may be loaded out. In eight out of the last 10 disaster years, soybean yields declined from the August crop report to the final report in January by a minimum of 0.6 bu./acre (1980) to as much as nearly 6 bu./acre (2003). While weekly export sales were better than expected, they were a marketing year low, taking the title from last week; however, total sales on the books (597 million bushels) for 2012-13 are 54 percent of the USDA forecasts for total 2012-13 export sales. This week’s
sales were 3.6 million bushels for old crop and 34.0 million for new crop. China accounted for 706,000 mt of the total sales. Good crusher margins in the United States, Europe and China are making it difficult to get the rationing in place that we need. China was rumored to be in the market again this week, but nothing was confirmed. China sold 402,000 mt of state reserve soybeans and indicated they will hold more actions in the next few months. The July National Oilseed Processors Association crush was much better than expected at 137.4 million bushels, again, where’s the rationing? Based on the FSA planted acreage data, traders may be expecting an increase on a subsequent USDA report of 742,000 acres. While interesting, there was little confidence in these estimates’ correlation to actual acres. OUTLOOK: November beans gained 2 cents this week to close at $16.45 3/4 per bushel. There still is a significant amount of rationing to achieve and higher prices will be a leader in accomplishing that feat. Recent weather conditions may be helping to increase the size of the crop, but processor margins are good enough to keep basis firm. Support in the November contract first lies at $16, then nearer $15.50; first resistance is the old high of $16.91 1/2, then about every 50 cents higher. ❖
NEHER, from pg. 19 strong. The food/feed versus fuel debate has risen to a fevered pitch as ethanol production has once again become demonized. Many in the grain industry are in a foul mood and looking for someone to blame. The “blame game” does not change the fact that Mother Nature has been brutal to many grain-producing areas in the United States this year. There will be no easy answers to the rationing job that the market must conduct this year. This is the nature of a business that is so dependent on forces out of our control. I remember a conversation that I had with a veteran Iowa farmer in the summer of 1988. I was farming in western Kansas at that time and was learning, firsthand the pain of a crop failure. I lamented that I was at the mercy of what did or did not fall from the sky. I told him that my son was born in
February and he still had never heard thunder. This farmer patiently heard me out and then stated that he had spent more years looking at the sky and wishing it would not rain, than wishing it would rain. He had never had a crop failure in his 40 plus years of farming. I was stunned and left without much to say to him. I called him on the telephone a few nights ago and asked him how his crops were this year. He paused for a moment and told me that he remembered our conversation all those years ago. He said, “I now know what it feels like to realize that the great crops that I have raised in all my years of farming were not of my doing.” That proud farmer was experiencing the humbling impact of a crop failure. As I hung up the telephone that night, I know he would survive because he has great reserves of working capital that he has preserved throughout the years. He had found a Grain Angle that was a key to his success. ❖

treatment for food toxicity, often works to recover pets who ingest these foods,” Black said. “But these supportive treatments to get pets back on their feet are often very costly for the owner and difficult for the patient. In cases that require dialysis, pets have a difficult road to recovery.” Foods mentioned here should be kept off countertops and out of reach of pets, and under no circumstances fed to dogs and cats.

centration of toxic metabolites than milk chocolate or white chocolate. Signs of distress seen after chocolate ingestion include anxiety/anxiousness, hyperactivity, urination, elevated body temperature, seizures and irregular heart rhythms. There is no antidote, but supportive care is usually successful for recovery. Xylitol is a common sugar substitute now used in many kitchens. If ingested by pets, it is associated with a severe decline in blood sugar and liver failure. The exact mechanism of toxicity is unknown, and there is no antidote. While supportive care is typically successful, liver failure may still occur. “It is important to remember that if you cook or use xylitol in your foods, those foods should not be fed to pets,” Black said. “It is still toxic if used in cooking or baking.” Onions, garlic and chives are also toxic. They contain allicin, which is released upon crushing or chewing the plant. Allicin damages the hemoglobin in red blood cells, leading to anemia. There is no antidote, though supportive care is typically successful. While cats are especially affected by onions and garlic, dogs are especially susceptible to macadamia nut toxicity. An unknown toxin in the nut leads to difficulty walking, high body temperatures, depression and vomiting. No deaths have been reported, but hospital care is often required. “Supportive care, which is the usual

A number of foods in your kitchen can be deadly to your cats and dogs. You may know some, and others may surprise you. Dorothy Black, clinical assistant professor at the Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, said these foods may not always cause toxic reactions. “But it’s just a good rule of thumb to keep these items off your kitchen counters and under no circumstances feed these foods to your pet,” she said. Grapes and raisins possess an unknown toxic substance that can lead to renal failure. Toxic doses have been reported with just one or two grapes or raisins. There is no known antidote, only supportive care and dialysis to support kidney recovery. Not all animals will suffer kidney failure after ingesting grapes or raisins, but it is best to avoid them for your dogs and cats. “Grapes can be particularly tricky for dogs, because many actually like to eat grapes, so you have to be especially aware,” Black said. “Our pets are amazing creatures, but they can really get into dangerous situations with human food very quickly.” Chocolate is also commonly known to be bad for pets. It contains two toxic ingredients — caffeine and theobromine. Dark chocolate is especially harmful because it has a higher con-

Memorial Park, Crosby, Minn.
“Where Farm and Family Meet”
T
here is a hint of a hint that the glistening sea serpent statue on the shores of Serpent Lake in Crosby Memorial Park may have some basis in reality. Crosby, Minn., is surrounded by both natural and man-made lakes. One, Mahnomen Pit Lake, is 525 feet deep. There is ample space for real sea serpents in those depths. The rainbow and brook trout, stocked by the Department of Natural Resources for sport fishing, could feed a sea serpent. But, the hint about the existence of a real sea serpent has its origins in Serpent Lake. We went to Crosby’s public library in search of information on the sea serpent sculpture. When in need of information we find librarians are always helpful and
the Crosby library staff was no exception. The statue is 20 feet high, 25 feet long and weighs 2,500 pounds. It was made of Styrofoam by a company in Sparta, Wis., on an order from the Crosby Chamber of Commerce. It arrived in Crosby in June of 1977, just in advance of the statewide firemen’s convention, which was held in Crosby that year. And its beautiful glistening sparkle that has held up so well for nearly four decades consists of 20 or more shades of color. It looks as if Kahnah’ bek, which is the serpent’s name, has just emerged from the water and is dripping wet. With these verifiable facts in hand we turned to go. As we did, one of the librarians, a quiet and demure silver-haired woman, dropped her eyes and
almost whispered this: “There were rumors about ... but I don’t ...” She didn’t complete her sentences. Crosby is a relatively young and vibrant town with a bit of a checkered past. In 1924, it was the site of a mine disaster wherein 41 miners drowned. Following that, it became the first U.S. town to elect a Communist mayor. The mines eventually closed, filled with crystal cold water, and the town moved on. But there may be secrets not told. One may be that as Serpent Lake developed over the years a glistening sea monster slipped out and found its way to a deep mine pit lake. There are many things to do in Crosby. One of them is to sit in the park, near Kahnah’ bek but facing Serpent Lake, and contemplate this possibility. ❖
