Economic advantage of coal may not be apparent to some MINDS, from pg. 2A extremely diverse economy.

Unanswered is the provocative question as to what would Minnesota’s energy costs be if coal were not the major resource for delivering the state’s energy needs.

Perhaps as expected, Republican skeptics picked up on the governor’s words. Said State Representative Pat Garafolo, R-Farmington: “Eliminating all coal power in Minnesota is a very sneaky way for Democrats to kill precious metal mining on the Iron Range.” Garafolo’s argument: high energy prices equals no mining.

So how do these comments by Minnesota’s governor impact the future of coal-fired electrical power? At this stage the logical response is that no one really knows.

However Steve Tomac, Basin Electric Power Cooperative’s Senior Legislative Representative, voices some concern: “We’ve got a strong membership constituency. We generate and transmit electricity to 135 member rural electric systems — about 2.85 million consumers in nine states — but the issues are getting bigger and more difficult to solve. We need to make certain that our membership is politically active so we can hit these challenges face on.

Bigger pigs can’t make up the fewer pigs, however, and USDA forecasts July-through-December hog prices 25 to 30 percent higher than 2013. Next year may see numbers climb, but prices, guesses USDA, won’t fall much — maybe a tiny 5 percent.

The takeaway? Eating high — or low, for that matter — off the hog is gonna get even more expensive this year than last.

Corn prices don’t have that problem.

On July 11, USDA pegged 2014 production, given normal weather, at 13.86 billion bushels. The weather across most of the U.S. cornbelt, however, hasn’t been normal; it’s been spectacular.

That near-perfection should show up in the next big USDA crop report Aug. 12.

Private analysts aren’t waiting. Many now peg 2014 production in the 14.3 billion bu. area, a healthy leap above 2013’s record 13.9 billion bu. crop. The higher number comes courtesy of higher estimated yields —170 bu. per acre nationwide compared to USDA’s 165 bu. per acre.

USDA to help new farmers U.S. Department of Agriculture Deputy Secretary Krysta Harden announced the availability of over $9 million in outreach and technical assistance for minority farmers and ranchers and military veterans that are new to farming and ranching.

The funding, provided through the Outreach and Assistance for Socially Disadvantaged Farmers and Ranchers and Veteran Farmers and Ranchers Program, also known as the 2501 Program, will enable community-based organizations and other partners to work directly with these groups to successfully acquire, own and operate farms and ranches and equitably participate in all USDA programs.

Deputy Secretary Harden made this announcement at the White House during the Future of American Agriculture Champions of Change event celebrating the next generation of America's farmers and ranchers.

Through the 2501 Program, support is distributed to entities that work with minority or veteran farmers and ranchers — 1890 Land Grant Institutions, 1994 Land Grant Institutions, American Indian Tribal community colleges and Alaska Native cooperative colleges, Hispanic-serving and other institutions of higher education, Tribal governments and organizations, or community-based organizations.

The 2501 Program, administered by the USDA's Office of Advocacy and Outreach, has distributed over $57 million to 188 partners since 2010. The 2014 farm bill reauthorized the program and expanded targeted communities to include military veterans. Applications for 2501 Program funding will be accepted through Aug. 25, and must be submitted through www.grants.gov. More information about the 2501 Program is available at: http://www.outreach.usda.gov/grants/index.htm America's farmers and ranchers continue to become more diverse. According to the 2012 Agricultural Census, minority and historically under-represented communities are part of the continued growth among new and beginning farmers and ranchers. According to the census, 22 percent of all farmers were beginning farmers in 2012. That means one out of every five farmers operated a farm for less than 10 years.

Today's funding announcement was made possible by the 2014 farm bill. The farm bill builds on historic economic gains in rural America over the past five years, while achieving meaningful reform and billions of dollars in savings for taxpayers. Since enactment, USDA has made significant progress to implement each provision of this critical legislation, including providing disaster relief to farmers and ranchers; strengthening risk management tools; expanding access to rural credit; funding critical research; establishing innovative public-private conservation partnerships; developing new markets for rural-made products; and investing in infrastructure, housing and community facilities to help improve quality of life in rural America.

Back in the saddle — Time to dig out the ol’ bicycles pass and, as we returned, gathered up all the momentum and courage we had and started back up. Before long my heart was racing and my breathing matched that of a woman in the last stages of labor. (At least I didn’t come out of it with a new baby — after all, there was supposed to be less of me after this obnoxious test of wills, not more.)

I was sweating like nobody’s business, trying to look like a RAGBRAI regular who did this all the time to passing motorists, and silently pleading with every pedal stroke, “Mother. Of. God. Please deliver

We reached the top, and later on, the trail head.

We had conquered. But then we had to dismount our bikes and stand up. Unknowing onlookers, I’m certain, suspected frequent mid-day vodka nipping.

I could have used the real thing after that. My husband was just glad he didn’t mention anything about extra poundage. He was suffering enough.

Karen Schwaller brings “Table Talk” to The Land from her home near Milford, Iowa. She can be reached at kschwaller@evertek.net. ❖

THE LAND, AUGUST 1, 2014 << www.TheLandOnline.com >> “Where Farm and Family Meet”

I recently read a quote with great interest (and a chuckle that accidentally included a snort or two). The quote said, “Women who carry a few extra pounds tend to live longer than the men who mention them.”

I’m impressed by the philosophers of our time who come up with such amazing insights.

TABLE TALK My husband said to me one

By Karen Schwaller day, “We should get our bikes out and start riding them.” He was right, and I admired his subtlety in telling me what I already knew.

To say it had been awhile since I’d ridden my bike is like saying most kids get skinned knees from doing it.

I have my skinned-knee scar to show for my childhood biking experiences, and rode it all the time on the gravel roads. When you live 10 miles from town, you blaze your own bike trails. But when I graduated from high school, I also graduated from riding my bike.

When our children were old enough for bikes and training wheels, I remember needing to get a bike so I wouldn’t have to run alongside them when we were out and about.

No one wanted to witness that.

I looked around at garage sales and came across one that looked a little like the one Miss Gulch rode on “The Wizard of Oz.” It was an older blue model with large tires and the fenders covering them — only it was all without the music, Toto or flying monkeys. As I was visiting with the owner, she said to me, “I think you’ll really like this one — it has a nice big seat.”

So the bike description did fit; the Wicked Witch of the West showed up after all.

Fast forward a few years, and I’d purchased a brand new red 10-speed bike. It hung upside down from the ceiling in the garage for several years, feigning a bat’s existence, and made a lovely garage ornament.

If nothing else it gave visitors the illusion of physical fitness that — on the farm — usually comes from chasing after livestock, baling hay, climbing fences and carrying hay bales and feed pails across the yard.

When we went to fetch my bike, we saw that the front tire was slightly bent from hanging for so long. I understood that — I have parts that are that way, too.

A few rounds with a pliers helped the bike tire out, so we packed up both of our pedal hogs and headed for the bike trail. We weren’t brave enough to start out on gravel roads like farm kids do. Our mid-life knees could not match those of a young, determined farm kid.

That first trip, we encountered an ankle-biting dog that befriended my husband, causing him to have to balance his bike, keep pedaling, kick the dog away, watch for traffic and be prepared if the dog somehow got in front of his bike tire. Good thing today’s farmers are used to multi-tasking.

The second time we unwittingly decided to brave the part of the trail that has a Matterhorn-like summit on it. We gleefully descended the hill on our first

When pioneers first traveled through Minnesota, they marveled at the seemingly endless, inland sea of tall grass prairie that greeted them. It is estimated more than 18 million acres of grasslands stretched from the southeast to the northwest corners of the state.

The vital prairie ecosystems CROSS, from pg. 11A just a patch of grass. Among other things, the thick root systems put down by the myriad species — a really healthy prairie system can have as many as 150 different plant species — can slow run-off during heavy rains, preventing soil erosion.

The rich, complex plant population of a prairie ecosystem infuses organic materials back into the soil. While the organic content of a typical crop field can be as low as 1 percent, the organic content of prairie soil can be as high as 6 percent.

Amidst growing concerns of vanishing pollination sources, grasslands also benefit bees which, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, pollinate 80 percent of our flowering crops, which constitute onethird of everything we eat.

Finally, the prairie environment provides wildlife habitat. Since the mid-80s, the Conservation Reserve Program has created millions of acres of grasslands for soil conservation and wildlife habitat. However, as the CRP contracts have expired and crop prices soared, many of those grasslands have vanished. Just since 2004, Minnesota has lost nearly a half-million acres of CRP as contracts have expired, with hundreds of thousands of acres scheduled to expire in coming years.

Even as grasslands continue to vanish, there seems to be a growing awareness and appreciation of prairie ecosystems. Landowners also are discovering that preserving grasslands and farming don’t have to be mutually exclusive. Naturally, grasslands can be a source of hay. But experiments in Iowa with strips of prairie grasslands interspersed with traditional croplands have improved soil conditions and improved yields.

The state of Minnesota has begun to allow domestic livestock grazing in Wildlife Management Areas, traditionally off-limits to agricultural use, after discovering that when done so judiciously, the practice can improve the quality of grasslands as wildlife habitat.

The Minnesota DNR has implemented a Prairie Conservation Plan to focus on protecting grasslands.

Using local technical teams working with farmers, landowners, conservation groups and local officials, the PCP has focused grassland conservation efforts on 10 different areas in western Minnesota.

One such area is the Minnesota River Valley stretching from Lac Qui Parle to western Nicollet County.

The Many Rivers Chapter of the Prairie Enthusiasts is hosting a tour in that area to introduce visitors to the beauty and diversity of the prairie environment.

The free event will be held from 1-4 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 10, on a prairie remnant on a bluff overlooking the Minnesota River on the Gerald Peichel farm near Fort Ridgely State Park. From Mankato, the site can be reached by taking Highway 14 west from Mankato, then north on Highway 15, then west at Klossner on Nicollet County Rd for 16 miles. Turn at the U.S. flag.

Dangers of dehydration in elderly through the kidneys. Diuretics, sedatives and laxatives are common, necessary drugs that require close attention to fluid intake. Other drugs and alcohol can cause the kidneys to work harder, and may damage them, making it harder to maintain fluid balance.

• Psychosocial reasons: This is the elder who is cognitively impaired and possibly unable to drink without full assistance, or those who may intentionally restrict fluid intake in the hopes of decreasing the risk of incontinence.

As we enter the warmer part of the year, it is more important than ever to drink enough fluids. This is particularly true for children and for persons 65 and older, which could be both the caregivers and their loved ones.

Not drinking enough fluids can cause unwanted symptoms, complications from existing disease conditions and may account for many hospitalizations of our elders.

Water and juices are the best; coffee, tea and colas with caffeine as well as alcoholic drinks cause the body to lose fluids and are recommended only in small amounts.

Elders are at risk for dehydration for many reasons: • Age related: There is less water in the older body, greater difficulty for the older kidney to maintain fluid balance, and less thirst sensations in older folks in general.

• Disease related: Disease related reasons for dehydration range from the complex to the simple. Infections such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and urinary tract infections increase the need for fluids due to fevers and the overproduction of mucus.

Some diseases, such as congestive heart failure, renal disease, stroke or other neurological disorders and diabetes, cause changes in the function of various hormones that regulate the fluid balance in the body.

• Environmental reasons: A decrease in mobility for those with arthritis, diminished vision or confined to bed rest who cannot as easily meet their own needs.

Those with diminished appetite or reluctance to bother others for something as simple as assistance in getting a sip of water are definitely at risk.

• Medication reasons: May cause increased fluid losses

From the Fields: Rainfall goes from feast to famine The Thronsons Gary, Minn.

Jared Thronson knows he dodged the proverbial bullet on July 21 when a huge line of storms struck northwestern Minnesota. A tornado was Jared Thronson reported south of Crookston and straight-line winds did damage around the area. The Land spoke with Thronson on July 24 as he reported his farm received sixth-tenths of an inch of rain during that storm but no damage to the crops. That’s been all the moisture that has fallen in weeks — “We’re ready for some rain again.”

The corn is “looking really good,” said Thronson. “A lot of the corn around is starting to tassel; mine should be there in a few days.” The beans are doing well and while they haven’t closed the rows yet “they’re getting bushy.” Meanwhile, the winter wheat is starting to ripen. Thronson planned on spraying with Roundup on July 25. He believes the wheat is a week to 10 days away from harvesting.

“I’m still waiting for a mechanic to walk around the combine with me,” he said. Other than that, he’s ready to tackle his first winter wheat harvest. He is also working on “getting some tillage equipment ready for after harvest,” along with the dreaded task of “trying to keep up with mowing the lawn.”

Thronson’s schedule is full as he’s helping with tree removal due to the storms in Crookston. He said he’ll be busy “all day today and a few more days after that.”

In general Thronson feels that his crops are “still doing pretty good,” and is pretty happy with the way everything looks. If gentle rains can fall in the fields, and the severe storms can continue to stay away, Thronson will be one happy farmer.

The Wiltses Herman, Minn.

“Where Farm and Family Meet”

— “It’s usually an entertaining day.”

In general he believes that their crops aren’t great but they’re good — “they have potential.” He emphasized, however, that one thing they don’t need is an early frost. One can only hope that Mother Nature is listening.

By KRISTIN KVENO

“We’re behind by quite a bit.”

That sums up the growing season according to Dennis Wilts. The Land spoke Dennis Wilts with Wilts on July 23 as he gave an update on field conditions at his farm. They received a quarter inch of rain of July 21, “so we’re sitting real good moisture-wise,” he said, although a bit more rain “wouldn’t hurt anything.”

Wilts is quick to point out that “we don’t want a frost until October.” This

request is needed due to the condition of the crops. “Our wheat, we’d usually start (harvesting) in a week to 10 days; this year it will be two to three weeks until harvest.” The corn is behind as well — “It’s just starting to tassel now.”

Their sugar beets are all over the board. “The first beets (planted) looking real good,” Wilts said, but the last beets planted, not so much. He attributes this to the not having a good root system due to all that rain that fell shortly after they were planted. He estimates that his sugar beets as whole are “behind two to three weeks.”

Wilts is staying busy by “doing stuff around the yard” as well as getting ready for the wheat harvest. He has the combine in the shop, getting it prepped for harvest. Wilts will be spraying beans and beets with Roundup next week, both for the second time.

It’s not all work on the farm for Wilts. He spent some time at the Grant County fair in Herman last weekend, as well as cheering on his granddaughters as they played in softball tournaments in the Twin Cities. He’s also getting his place ready for a family reunion the first weekend of August.

With 40 to 50 people expected, Wilts is crossing his fingers for nice weather.

The crops may be behind, but they look good, he said. Good looking crops, good moisture and adequate heat may mean a happy fall for Wilts.

The Hoffmans New Ulm, Minn.

The rains that soaked the New Ulm area for much of June feel like a distant memory for Don Hoffman’s crops.

When The Land spoke with Hoffman

on July 23, he admitted that “we could really use a dose of rain.” There were chances of precipitation forecast for Friday and Saturday, and he hoped they panned out. Without Don Hoffman additional moisture, “it would be critical in about a week.”

He noted that the farm had only received four-tenths of an inch during the entire month of July.

Hoffman cut hay on July 23, and it was “not too bad for a third crop.” He planned on making baleage out of the hay on July 24. As for the other crops, “if it’s on the light ground it’s starting to hurt.”

Hoffman hasn’t just been staring at the sky, watching it not rain. He’s been doing mechanical work on a tractor as well as “lots of odd jobs around the yard.” The apartment he’s setting up for the employees to use during inclement weather is taking longer than he’d hoped to complete. Hoffman said his goal is to “at least get the outside stuff done before we move on to the mattresses in the barn.”

On the dairy side, lots of calves born in July have been keeping things busy.

“There were seven new babies on Saturday morning,” Hoffman said. “It seems to come in streaks.” His son Scott and wife Kendra take any heifer calves that are a day and a half and older and raise them. They took 32 calves in July alone.

Hoffman and his crew will be heading to Farmfest next week. “We ask anybody on our outside crew if they want to go.” The employees get paid to go. Hoffman definitely enjoys Farmfest

The Hagens Lake Mills, Iowa “From feast to famine.”

That is how Jim Hagen sums up the rainfall situation on his farm this growing Jim Hagen season. The Land spoke with Hagen on July 24 as he explained that precipitation totals were “three inches behind for the month.” He’s of the opinion that a bit more rain “wouldn’t hurt anything.”

Hagen said his corn is pretty much all tasseled now, and the beans are flowering and closing in the rows. The crop has “caught up quite a bit,” he said, but they’re “waiting to see if we see any aphids.” The next 10 days of the growing cycle is when the aphids usually make their appearance on the plant. Some believe that last winter’s extremely cold temperatures may have killed off many aphids, keeping infestation numbers down this year. Hagen is all caught up on spraying, finishing up beans four days prior. He plans on having an aerial sprayer handle fungicide and insecticide if aphids do appear.

Hagen is working on a tiling project: “Closing up a ditch and putting in a new main instead.” Tiling is essential in his “prairie pothole” area. “If there’s no tile, there’s no farming it,” he said.

With no run-off, tiling may be needed for a successful crop.

Hagen showed some school pride at his 35th class reunion the weekend of July 12-13 in Lake Mills, Iowa. With a great turnout for the event, he said a good time was had by all. Meanwhile, he has been busy at home putting a deck and patio on the house. He had some help on the big project but did indeed do a lot of it himself.

The Iowa bicycling craze known as RAGBRAI passed just 20 miles south of Hagen’s farm this week. “Twenty thousand people on bike come through,” he said. One of those riders was Hagen’s own brother, Jeff.

As for the status of the crops, Hagen simply said, “Keep the hail away and it will be fine.” He said the lack of rain isn’t too concerning. “We’ll get a crop even if it doesn’t rain,” he said. ❖

Grain Angles Good growing conditions

The following market analysis is for the week ending July 25.

CORN — It was the same song, different verse in the corn market this week. A lack of new developments kept prices under pressure throughout the week. Warmer temperatures were welcome across the Midwest to aid in crop development and are forecast to return to normal on the extended weather maps. Rain events will now be closely watched as many areas would like a shot or two of rain, which is in the short-term forecasts, to finish off the kernel fill.

A Reuters' survey pegged the NYSTROM U.S. corn yield at 170.5 bushels PHYLLIS CHS Hedging Inc. per acre. This compares with the St. Paul U.S. Department of Agriculture July 165.3 BPA estimate. The 170 BPA number has been a major factor in the 53 1⁄2 cent price collapse in the December contract since June 30. Private projections published this week were 172.8 BPA and 174.1 BPA. A balance of mild temperatures against just periodic rains will be monitored as we head into August.

Crop conditions held steady as of July 20 at 76 percent good/excellent. The condition index is the third highest since 1988 with only 2004 and 1994 higher.

Another week of steady conditions is anticipated.

Weekly export sales were huge for new crop at 45 million bushels and 11.5 million bushels for old crop.

The latest figures failed to sustain a fresh round of buying into the market. In the same vein, weekly ethanol production was the second highest of this

The livestock markets are definitely not for the faint of heart. The past several weeks have been very volatile and full of rapid change in directions on an intraday basis. This type of trade is not really expected to change in the upcoming weeks.

The cattle market continues to find strength from the competition by the packers in attempts to gain inventory each week. The tight supply of market-ready cattle has kept the market extremely strong resulting in new cash highs almost on a weekly basis. Also supporting the market is the strong beef cutout which is also making new all-time highs over JOE TEALE the past few weeks. Demand is Broker still weaker than a year ago; how- Great Plains Commodity ever, the lack of supply of cattle is Afton, Minn. more than offsetting the weak demand. This continues to result in forcing the higher prices paid for cattle.

The USDA released two reports on Friday, July 25, which should have some longer-range implications for the cattle market. The first report was the Monthly Cattle on Feed report which indicated the following: on feed 98 percent; placements 94 percent; marketed 98 percent. The second report was the Semi Annual Cattle Inventory Report. The results are as follows: total cattle and calves 97 percent; calf crop 98 percent; total cows and heifers calved 98 percent. All of the numbers are in comparison to the previous year.

Obviously these reports are interpreted as friendly to bullish for the cattle market in the months ahead.

The caveat for the cattle market will eventually be the further decrease in the demand for beef due to

Start making plans now for year-end cash flow requirements: The latest USDA crop condition report shows a rating of good to excellent on 70-percent-plus of the corn and soybean crop nationally, and market prices are certainly reflecting this potentially large crop. While the upper Midwest struggled with delays in planting and probably has slightly lower crop rating than other parts of the Corn Belt, we’re experiencing good growing conditions going into August.

Most producers I’m speaking with are expecting an average to above-average crop.

Given the unusual weather and Darel Ness markets we’ve experienced the AgStar Assistant VP past couple years, I believe it’s Financial Services important to review year-end Rochester, Minn. cash flow needs early this year.

This has been a difficult marketing year for most and, regardless of how well your marketing plan has worked, we’re typically talking fewer dollars for our crop value this fall, whether sold or on inventory. That’s fewer dollars to cover expenses, payments and manage taxable income with 2015 prepays. Take some time to consider how much taxable income you pushed forward into 2014; this is a sizable number for many producers.

Things to consider include: • Deferred grain sales; • Prevent plant payments that were deferred to 2014 (note: if a deferral was elected, you can find this dollar amount on your 2013 schedule F); • Many producers didn’t receive their 2013 multi-

Weather forecast continues to look good for crops NYSTROM, from pg. 15A crop year at 959,000 barrels per day.

Looking to the feed usage line for the balance of this year and into 2014/2015, more competition is entering the feed channel as a result of wet conditions in Europe and China’s decision on dried distillers grains.

Europe’s wheat quality is at risk and will likely push more wheat than originally thought into their feed market and reduce their corn imports. China announced this week that all U.S. DDG imports will be required to be certified they are free of genetically modified organism MIR162. This is viewed as unworkable and essentially puts a halt to DDG exports from the United States to China. It could effectively displace 4.5-5.0 million metric tons of corn in the domestic feed market.

On the fund money front, according to the latest commitment of traders report they are still holding a net long position. This gives them ammunition for further liquidation to pressure prices in the long run.

OUTLOOK: December corn slid to yet another new contract low of $3.64 1⁄4 this week. It closed 6 3⁄4 cents lower for the week at $3.71 3⁄4 per bushel. The nearby September contract was down 8 1⁄4 cents at $3.63 per bushel. When is it enough? When all the bearish news has been absorbed and market has done its job of attracting end user buying. Is the low in? I wouldn't bank on it. However, this week’s export sales numbers were surprisingly high for new crop, so we may be getting closer to finding buying interest and moving into a consolidation phase until we see early

harvest yields. The Midwest crop tour begins Aug. 18 and should give us an excellent view of the potential yield. First support in the December contract is this week’s new contract low at $3.64 1⁄4, then psychological support at $3.50 per bushel; longer support may be closer to $3.24 1⁄2 per bushel. Rallies are expected to be short lived with a chart gap from $3.76 3⁄4 to $3.77 1⁄2 as first resistance.

SOYBEANS — November soybeans missed setting a new contract low by a penny this week when it touched $10.55 per bushel; but by the end of the week November soybeans were only down 1 3⁄4 cents for the week at $10.83 1⁄2 per bushel. August soybeans rallied an impressive 35 1⁄2 cents to close at $12.12 1⁄4 per bushel on solid exports and ideas this year’s carryout will shrink. However, many processors rolled their bids to the November, dropping levels as they did so. August meal rallied $17.30 per ton this week.

Weekly old crop soybean export sales at 8.3 million bushels were the highest since last June. The current balance sheets will need to show an export increase on the Aug. 12 crop report.

Current export commitments for 2013/2014 stand at 1.684 billion

“Where Farm and Family Meet”

Hog prices have slipped TEALE, from pg. 15A higher prices. When this will happen is dependent on the end buyers of beef products and their reluctance to pay the higher prices. This should keep producers keenly aware of beef product movement and cautious in their marketing schemes.

The hog market, on the other hand, is quite the opposite of the cattle market. Hog prices have slipped in recent weeks as numbers are more plentiful than anticipated by the trade. The porcine epidemic diarrhea virus has not produced the lack of numbers that most had anticipated, and as a result

the slipping of the pork cutout has packers backing down on their bids for live inventory. The interesting scenario here is that supply is detrimental to the pork while positive to the beef. It would seem that at some point the consumer will switch to the pork because of the difference in cost between the pork and beef. But once again this will transpire somewhere in the future. In the meantime the hog market appears vulnerable to further declines unless the supply situation changes dramatically in the near term. Producers should keep on top of market conditions and protect inventories as needed. ❖

cated an average bean yield of 45.5 BPA, only slightly higher than the July USDA 45.3 BPA estimate.

OUTLOOK: This week was a balancing act of a crop increasing in size versus ongoing demand. August weather determines how large our soybean crop will eventually be, but extended forecasts don’t foresee any threats. There could still be high volatility in the old crop as the market bridges a tight old crop situation to the anticipated record new crop bushels. The first line of support for November beans is the contract low of $10.54 with resistance at $11.40 per bushel.

Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the week ended July 25: Chicago September wheat gained 5 3⁄4 cents while both Minneapolis and Kansas City fell 2 1⁄2 cents. September crude oil was slightly higher, up 14 cents at $102.09.

September ultra-low-sulfur diesel jumped 7 3⁄4 cents higher, reformulated blendstock for oxygenate blending lost 2 cents, and natural gas crashed 1 1⁄2 cents lower on mild weather. The next USDA crop report is Aug. 12.

MARKETING bushels compared to the most recent USDA export forecast of 1.620 billion bushels. Even if half of the overage is rolled into next year’s balance sheet, that leaves over 30 million bushels that will need to be accounted for this year.

New crop sales were outstanding at 90.1 million bushels, bringing total commitments to 541.4 million bushels.

This is 28 million bushels higher than what we had committed last year at this time. Crop conditions rose by 1 percent to 73 percent good/excellent as of July 20. Conditions should hold steady in the coming week after a week of better heat. A Reuters' survey this week indi-

Review crop insurance NESS, from pg. 15A peril crop insurance revenue loss payment until the 2014 tax year.

Will you have enough crop sales and operating credit available to cover your cash flow needs when tax planning is considered? Don’t wait until December to figure this out. You may need to talk to your lender about an inventory loan to free up operating money. Some producers may even need to set up some new term credit to replenish working capital. This process takes time; don’t limit your year-end options by putting things off too long.

Another thing to review right now is crop insurance. Don’t discount the value of your MPCI Revenue Policy just because we have a good-looking crop coming, especially on corn. The February spring price on corn was $4.62; currently the Dec. 14 contract is trading around $3.70. If the current prices hold through October, the price failure on the corn revenue policy alone would increase the bushel guar-

antee to actual production history levels or higher on an 80 or 85 percent policy. Or simply stated, the price drop has used up the deductible so an average or slightly above average crop may still be eligible for a revenue loss payment.

So please pay close attention when you receive your schedules of insurance from your agent. Review the acres and share for accuracy; it’s very difficult to get corrections made in the fall, especially if you are in a loss situation. Finally, for planning purposes, remember that MPCI premiums are due before the end of September this year. This is a month earlier than in the past and could have impact to cash flow, so it’s important to plan accordingly.

Cheese supplies found to be tight in the Midwest

MIELKE, from pg. 17A cents above a year ago. The barrels finished at $1.9525, down 11 3/4 cents on the week, 19 1/4 cents above a year ago, and 1 3/4 cents below the blocks.

Eleven cars of block traded hands on the week and 14 of barrel. The lagging NDPSR-surveyed U.S. average block price lost 2.2 cents, averaging $2.0096, while the barrels averaged $2.0355, down 1.5 cents.

■

Northeast cheese production is very active as milk flows to cheese plants remain strong, says Dairy Market News. The good milk volumes have reduced purchases of condensed skim at some plants. Butterfat and protein levels of milk intakes are down, compared to year ago levels, with some cheese operations fortifying with nonfat dry milk. Demand for cheese is steady to increasing as retail sales are fairly good and USDA purchased mozzarella have increased in preparation to the start of the school year.

Serving Minnesota Farmers Herbicide Needs for Over 60 Years!

Cheese supplies are tight in the Midwest. Some manufacturers now receiving domestic orders for August deliveries are telling customers they will have to reduce what they have ordered because supplies won't be up to the level of orders. Many cheese manufacturers are commenting on cheese supply tightness for customer delivery, as well as blocks and barrels in general.

Western cheese production is lower as hot weather and typical seasonal declines reduce available milk for manufacturing. Cheese demand remains good from retail accounts, but buyers are price sensitive and reluctant to increase orders at higher levels. The market has a softer undertone, but is trading in a range around the $2 mark. Most buyers are in good shape for immediate needs. Export demand has slowed.

Cash butter, after gaining almost 25 cents in two weeks and hitting 16-year highs, stumbled Friday, losing 3 cents, first loss since July 11, and closed at $2.59 per pound, still up 11 cents on the week and $1.1575 above a year ago. Ten cars were sold on the week and the NDPSR butter average hit $2.3669, up 5.6 cents.

Northeast butter production is reflective of the tight, high-priced cream market, according to USDA’s DMN. Some butter makers are filling contracted orders and then selling available cream supplies on the spot market. The higher multiples have limited spot purchases of cream for butter production. Inventories are adequate for near-term needs, but there are growing concerns if butter supplies will be adequate for the yearend holidays. Demand for butter is mixed with most buyers only covering their immediate needs.

The central market tone is firm with a growing concern about the price continuing higher. Milk production and components are generally declining in the upper Midwest, lowering a few production rates. Butter stocks are being maintained at light inventories.

Western butter output is lower as milk supplies move seasonally lower. Cream supplies remain tight with good demand from ice cream and cream cheese manufacturers. Some plants continue to sell cream rather than build stocks.

Cash Grade A nonfat dry milk lost more ground on the week, closing Friday at $1.6750, down 2 cents.

Two cars were sold. NDPSR powder averaged $1.8694, down 1.4 cents, and dry whey averaged 68.69 cents per pound, down 0.1 cent.

■ Nonfat dry milk production continues at a heavy pace despite much of the country experiencing lower milk volumes, according to DMN. Demand is steady for contracted volumes with some buyers looking for lower pricing for additional purchases. Stocks continue to build in many parts of the country.

Milk production has slowed across much of the country. The combination of hot weather and typical seasonal declines is slowing availability of manufacturing milk.

In the Midwest, cooler weather is expected to keep milk volumes closer to steady. Spot loads of milk are available, but are becoming harder to source.

CAROUSEL, from pg. 21A “Done!” said Cafesjian.

Still short of their goal, they entered into an agreement with the City of St. Paul, which secured a loan for the remainder. The day before the auction, Boehm and Peterson flew to New York to negotiate with the owners.

The morning of the auction, they reached an agreement with the owner’s lawyer, but there was still a

stumbling block — the auction house.

Everything OFC had accomplished, including their million-dollar bid, was in the news. They were aware that there was a bidder who was willing to outbid them to get one horse he coveted, after which he would put the rest back on the auction. Their only hope was to get the carousel taken off the auction.

“The owners of the carousel had con-

signed it to the auction house,” Boehm said. “The auction house stood to make a percentage on the sale. The higher the price, the more they would make.

They weren’t ready to withdraw it from the auction and sign their rights away. We dickered back and forth and finally it was agreed that they wanted a certain amount of extra money. They came down a bit, the owners put up some of it, we put up some of it, and we finally agreed. The deal was signed literally in the seconds before the auction began.”

When the auction house announced that the Minnesota carousel horses had been withdrawn from the auction and would be returned to Minnesota, Boehm said there were some boos, but most people applauded. In 1989 volunteers reassembled the carousel at the State Fair for its last appearance there.

“Typical ridership was around 60,000 in a year,” Boehm said. “We had 107,000 riders.”

After volunteers restored the machinery as well as the horses, the Cafesjian Carousel opened to the public at Town Square, a small indoor park in downtown St. Paul. As retail stores left downtown, ridership dropped. In 2000, the carousel opened in its new copper-topped pavilion in Como Regional Park, for which Cafesjian was again the major donor.

Large overhead doors open all around the pavilion for an open-air riding experience, galloping to music from a restored Wurlitzer band organ.

OFC renegotiated their loan with St. Paul, and it was eventually paid off.

They still accept donations for an endowment fund for expenses that are sure to come with a 100-year-old ride.

However, operational costs are covered by operational income — tickets and souvenirs. Except for a manager and a mechanic, Boehm said all the people who operate the carousel are volunteers.

For only $2 anyone can ride one of the most beautiful and historic carousels in the United States, with 68 horses and two chariots. Most of the horses still sport their original paint.

One chariot has been modified to provide a place for a wheel chair to take a ride. All of this has been made possible by many donations and thousands of hours of volunteer time.

Instead of being scattered around the world, the carousel will celebrate its 100th birthday this year, with festivities planned for Aug. 9.

Gerard Cafesjian died earlier this year, but his generosity lives on in the Cafesjian Carousel, which would no longer exist had it not been for his support.

But it took more than donations to save the carousel. Peter Boehm and Nancy Peterson donated their expenses and most of four weeks in 1988 to keep the carousel in Minnesota, and have put in countless hours since. Twenty-six years later, Boehm still serves as president of Our Fair Carousel, Inc. He’s not looking for everyone’s thanks, though Minnesotans owe him a lot. These days he gets his satisfaction sitting on a bench, watching the smiles of young and old as they ride round and round on “our” carousel.

The Minnesota State Fair’s 2014 Commemorative Art was unveiled by artist Emily L. Taylor of St. Paul. Surrounded by State Fair fans, art enthusiasts and media, she presented her original watercolor piece to the public for the first time at the J.V. Bailey House on the State Fairgrounds. The artwork will be on display at the Fine Arts Center during the fair’s 12-day run.

With a quirky perspective and playful representations of Minnesota’s people, crops, animals and landmarks, she illustrates the stories of those who gather for the annual State Fair. Living just blocks away from the fairgrounds, Taylor has developed a strong sense of tradition surrounding the Great Minnesota Get-Together, which helped her capture the essence of the fair’s place in our state’s culture.

“This has been an amazing experience,” Taylor said. “Having the opportunity to work with such a great group of people in an effort to help preserve the State Fair we know and love is a privilege. I can only hope that this painting will capture for the public what I feel is the essence of the Great Minnesota Get-Together’s community and spirit.”

Taylor was born in Minneapolis and graduated from South High School. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design.

She has created work for a series of watercolor paintings titled “A Place In Time,” which includes works such as “The BBQ” owned by the Cooperstown Graduate Program and “A Highland Ball,” a depiction of St. Paul’s Highland Park Little League Fields. She has

Minnesota State Fair’s humble beginnings After four years of territorial fairs, the first Minnesota State Fair was held in 1859 near what became downtown Minneapolis. This was a year after Minnesota was granted statehood.

During the fair’s early years, the site of the exposition changed annually with stops in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester, Red Wing, Winona and Owatonna. In the 1870s and early 1880s, civic groups from both St. Paul and Minneapolis worked relentlessly to provide a permanent home for the fair in their respective cities. In 1885, the Minnesota State Fair finally found a permanent home at its present location, midway between Minneapolis and St. Paul, when the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners donated their 210-acre poor farm to the State Agricultural Society, the governing body of the State Fair.

“Little Farm Hands at the Fair” is an agricultural education exhibit for kids. Each year over 40,000 Little Farm Hands and their families don their work aprons and fire up their imaginations to help with farm chores, collect goods to sell at the farmers market, and then spend their “earnings” on real products made from the farm at the grocery store.

This mock farm consists of a series of five miniature barns, a grain bin, a tractor yard, six garden plots, an

apple orchard and a farmers market connected by a self-guided pathway that directs families from a starting point to the last step in the process at the grocery store.

Each building provides hands-on tasks related to planting crops and the tending of animals. For example, at the chicken coop, the farm hands feed the faux chickens the grain they “harvested” and then collect the eggs. At the dairy barn, children

After the children have gone through each of the miniature barns and collected their products, they “sell” them at the farmers market for “cash” to be used at the retail grocery store where they have the opportunity to “buy” finished products like apples, milk, cereal, soy nuts, cans of fruit and vegetables, etc. ❖

Since the program began in 1976, more than 9,700 Minnesota farms have been recognized. Each year, Century Farm recipients receive an outdoor sign designating the farm as a “Century Farm” and a certificate signed by the governor of Minnesota and presidents of the Farm Bureau and Minnesota State Fair. Applications for the 2014 Century Farm program are available for download or may be requested via e-mail by contacting centuryfarms@mnstatefair.org.

Weed resistance a rapidly growing challenge said veteran corn/soybean farmer Jim Willers of Beaver Creek, Minn. That’s partly the reason why he and his brother made some changes this year.

“Last year we had a challenge killing some weeds,” said Willers, who has grown soybeans in 15-inch rows for several years. “I don’t know if we sprayed late and weeds got woody or we were seeing some resistance problems.” This year they used Sure Start, preplant incorporated on their corn; a new product, Zidua, was used on soybean fields right after planting.

In a June interview, Willers said that if he sees some weed breaks they’ll follow up with Callisto on their corn; glyphosate on their soybeans.

He noted that keeping up with the various new products is a challenge and that’s why teamwork with local crop consultants, crop service providers and extension specialists is important. But he’s aware that getting new modes of action into the pipeline for farm usage is often a fourto five-year process, or longer. “Getting new products cleared through the

Gunsolus said the resistance issue can be confusing, partly because even weather can confound the detection of resistance, especially low levels of resistance. “One could logically blame the poor control on weather which may have reduced the herbicide uptake,” he said. “Too hot, too cold, too much rain after application, etc.”

Challenges continue, and this growing resistance issue needs to be addressed very directly, said Hanks. Both he and Willers support the Take Action initiative which is an industry-wide partnership to help farmers manage herbicide resistance. The soybean checkoff is a big player in this effort which includes special research projects at universities across the U.S. soybean belt.

What should farmers being doing?

• Proactively develop a weed-management strategy which incorporates a diverse set of controls.

• Better understand the weeds on their farms.

• Incorporate cultural practices such as crop rotation and tillage.

• Rotate herbicides.

• Become aware of the cost of poor weed control.

• Use crop consultants, weed specialists, extension assistance and retailers. This works best with a team effort.

his customers simply to nullify what appears to be a growing weed resistance problem with area farmers.

He speaks confidently of Sonic, the product used by Rob Hanks.

“It’s a decent product but dependent upon timely rains after application which ideally is immediately after planting. So there is some ‘weather risk’ but if rain-activated, we’ve seen great results,” said Dohlman. He estimates over 80 percent of soybean acreage in his area is still on a Roundup Ready program — and a similarly high incidence on corn — so glyphosate chemistry is not history. In fact, there is a growing cadre of herbicides to compliment glyphosate, either used “pre” as part of a sequential strategy, or “post” as part of a tank mix with glyphosate.

“Yes, glyphosate has lost a bit of its ‘magic bullet’ mystique when it could kill most annual and perennial weeds, grass or broadleaf, without injuring the Roundup Ready crop,” said Gunsolus. “This product will still be a baseline, widely used herbicide but it will be integrated with other pre-emergence and tank mixed with post-emergence products.”

Dohlman gets directly to the point on the Roundup issue. “Monsanto has forced it down everyone’s throat by virtue of controlling the genetics of the crops that feature the RR trait,” he said. “In essence farmers are forced to buy the traits that they don’t need. When Monsanto bought Holden Seed Company 10 years ago they knew they then had control of the trait genetics that would keep Roundup in the saddle. They captured the seed market because Holden’s had most of the parent stock. So even though patents on Roundup chemistry expired some years back, Monsanto is still in the driver’s seat because of control of the RR trait package.”

WEEDS, from pg. 38A According to the International Survey of Herbicide Resistant Weeds, 400 resistant weeds have been reported globally. Of these 400, the United States reported 143, more than any other country. The stakes are huge — weed management is costing U.S. soybean farmers an estimated $2 billion a year.

Yet there continues to be uncertainty about the impact of weed resistance. A soybean checkofffunded survey shows 86 percent of U.S. soybean farmers think herbicide-resistant weeds have little to no effect on their yield or profitability. That same survey shows nearly a quarter of U.S. soybean farmers use only post-emergence herbicides when weeds appear as opposed to a comprehensive plan that includes multiple weed control practices.

Minnesota challenges According to Gunsolus, the primary weed species of concern in Minnesota are common waterhemp, common ragweed, giant ragweed and kochia. All of these species have biotypes that have developed resistance to ALS (SOA No. 2 herbicides like Pursuit) and glyphosate (SOA No. 9) herbicides.

“Based on responses in other states there is a high probability that we will find within this weed spectrum some biotypes resistant to HPPD herbicides (SOA No. 27 corn herbicides like Callisto, Laudis, and Impact) as well as PPO herbicides (SOA No. 14 soybean herbicides like Flexstar),” Gunsolus said.

“This has already occurred in Iowa and other Midwestern states.”

Over time the resistant population dominates in the field’s weed seed bank. Yes, there are different levels of resistance: e.g. glyphosate-resistant weeds may be killed if eight times the label rate is used whereas ALS-resistant weeds may not be killed at even 50 times the label usage. “Regardless, at economically viable use rates, the herbicide as a weed management tool is lost,” said Gunsolus.

He’s cautious about aerial applications for postemergence herbicides for a couple of reasons: 1) Not all post-emergence products are registered for aerial application, and 2) Good contact of the herbicide with the weeds is sometimes questionable.

Doug Dohlman with CHS Service Center in Le Roy, Minn., said there are now several post-emergence products that can be teamed with Roundup. But he’s definitely pushing the pre-emergence strategies with

t may have a small footprint, a mere six feet by six feet, but the Popcorn Stand that sits on the corner of Prentice Street and Seventh Avenue in downtown Granite Falls is a city landmark and a thriving enterprise. Currently owned and operated by the Granite Falls Kiwanis organization, it is open every evening from May 1 to Labor Day from 7-9:30 p.m. And it is busy.

Spencer Kvam was popping corn on this Tuesday evening, and almost a dozen people came to buy popcorn and 1919 Root Beer within the first 15 minutes after opening. Some were families on their way to the park.

“A lot of people go out for a walk in the evening and stop,” Kvam said.

There is such loyalty among some customers that they purchase a Saver Card for $20, good for $22 in food. The cards are kept at the stand and folks don’t have to carry cash to buy their treats. Popcorn is the mainstay, of course, but when the weather is warm the root beer, water, and frozen Snickers bars become popular.

Speaking of loyalty, Kvam mentioned one woman who grew up in the community and moved to St. Cloud. Every year on May 1 she returns to Granite Falls for the season opener of the Popcorn Stand, a night when business is bustling. Not long ago a couple came to have wedding pictures taken by the stand.

According to the stand’s history, Fred Ernston, Jr. erected the first Popcorn Stand in downtown Granite Falls in 1922. A few years later his uncles, Fred and Jule Ernston, erected a permanent stand one block north at the current location. The Ernstons replaced it with the present-day Popcorn Stand in 1969. Two generations of the Ernston family operated the stand for 60 years.

Beginning in 1982, ownership passed through a number of couples until the last of them, David and Jill Kafka, donated the Popcorn Stand to Granite Falls Kiwanis in 2002. A Kiwanis volunteer opens the stand every evening during its summer season, and on weekend evenings during September. The money raised supports programs for children and youth.

Strolling around while eating popcorn is a pleasant way to spend a summer evening in Granite Falls. There also is a bench and picnic table by the stand for relaxing. And if you can’t eat all of the popcorn, not far away is the Minnesota River where you can feed the rest to the ducks. ❖

Renewable biofuels have big day in Willmar, Minn.

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Willmar, Minn., was the epicenter of an E-85 rally day July 10. Thanks to promotional efforts on behalf of the Minnesota Corn Growers Association and the American Lung Association, E-85 was selling for an 85-cents-a-gallon discount at Walt’s in Willmar.

Walt’s was one of the earliest gas stations in Minnesota to get equipped with an E-85 pump.

According to Richard Syverson, Kandiyohi County corn grower and Minnesota Corn Growers Association Regional Representative, the threehour, 85-cent discount at Walt’s was a great success.

“In those three hours, we pumped 1,425 gallons of E-85. Flex fuel vehicles were lined up throughout the entire three-hour period,” said Syverson, who manned the E-85 pump and also told customers about his display

Maximizing your potato-growing experience Potatoes are versatile plants and can be used in many ways when grown in the home garden.

There’s a lot to know about how to grow and store them properly, however. Here are some tips from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach on ways to maximize the potato experience, with help from ISU Extension and Outreach horticulturists.

To have additional questions answered, contact the

ISU Hortline at (515) 294-3108 or hortline@iastate.edu.

There are small, round, green objects resembling miniature tomatoes on my potato plants.

What are they?

The small, round, green objects are the fruit of the potato plant.

Tomatoes and potatoes belong to the Solanaceae or Nightshade family. Plants within a family share certain morphological characteristics. The flowers on tomatoes and potatoes are similar in appearance.

Potato fruit are similar in shape (though much smaller in size) to those on tomatoes.

Most flowers on potato plants dry up and drop from the plant and don’t develop into fruit. The fruit that do develop are relatively small and inconspicuous and often go unnoticed by most gardeners. The cultivar ‘Yukon Gold’ fruits more heavily than most other potato cultivars.

Potato fruit are of no value to gardeners. The small fruit should not be eaten, as they contain a poisonous alkaloid (solanine). The fruit are not useful for planting purposes, as potatoes don’t reproduce true from seed.

When should I harvest potatoes?

Potatoes can be harvested when the tubers are small and immature (“new” potatoes) or when the crop is fully mature.

“New” potatoes are dug when the plants are still green and the tubers are greater than 1 inch in diameter. New potatoes should be used immediately, as they do not store well.

Potatoes grown for storage should be harvested after the vines have died and the crop is mature. To check crop maturity, dig up one or two hills after the plants have died. If the skins on the tubers are thin and rub off easily, the crop is not fully mature. Allow the crop to mature for several more days before harvesting the potatoes. When harvesting potatoes, avoid bruising, skinning or cutting the tubers. Damaged potatoes should be used as soon as possible.
