The past two months were bookended first by tremendous sorrow for my family, then great joy.

My father’s sudden passing after just beginning to battle the cancer in his body is still a shock that reverberates in mine. I won’t know what to say or LAND MINDS do sometimes, but I find comfort in photos of him —

By Tom Royer with my granddaughter, taken just two weeks before he died, sharing a special moment… with my mom, all dressed up for a church directory picture, like good Lutheran farmers should… with my nephew who was killed in a car accident at age 25, but from a silly moment 20 years earlier, playing cards and teasing each other across a table…

My elder daughter’s incredibly beautiful outdoor, lakeside wedding was last weekend. A very long list of very generous people worked very hard to make it happen, and every last drop of sweat was worth the effort.

Her husband is honorable, hard-working, caring and good, as is his family. He claims to have seen me cry during the ceremony, though, so he does have flaws; his eyesight must be faulty. I didn’t really cry, did I? Perhaps most dads watch their daughters grow up over the course of two or three decades and dream of someday walking them down the aisle. As recently as 10 years ago, however, the idea of my wife and I even having children at all — let alone “giving one away” in marriage — seemed strange. But as we’ve since learned time and again, the journey of adopting from the foster care system has a way of turning your life upside down and every which way, often in the blink of an eye.

The journey sometimes leads to sadness and hardened hearts, but in this case it brought us to a breathtakingly joyous celebration that no one involved will forget.

It’s been difficult to process this extreme emotional rollercoaster, both of adoption in general and of recent weeks. I worry that several wonderful events in the life of my younger daughter — graduating from high school, starting her first real job, getting her driver’s license, preparing for college — have been overshadowed and overlooked this summer.

Likewise, in this same timeframe my wife has begun a new and ambitious second career path, and begun taking classes to attain a business degree, all while trying to form a budget to pay for all of these fiscally strenuous life events.

I mostly just stare at a computer all day, trying to form complete sentences.

Our pace of life had been convulsive and frenetic and overwhelming for weeks, but a friend’s simple words stopped the world and reminded me about the importance of hope. Our former adoption worker and her husband came to the wedding, and afterwards she shared this on Facebook: Today I did something I’ve never done before. I attended the wedding of a “child” I matched with a

family eight years ago. She was 16 when she was placed. She didn’t know we were coming and didn’t see us during the ceremony. When she saw us come through the receiving line she burst into tears. I teased her, asking why, and she said, “Because you found me my parents!”

In a message to my wife and me, she added: I remember the day years ago at the park, sitting at the picnic table going over the notes and your hesitancy. But you took the risk and you have rocked this.

You should be incredibly proud of the way you have changed the world… to the thousandth generation.

We are all capable of so much more than we often give ourselves credit.

You don’t need to be adopted to understand the impact adoption has on a child. You don’t need to be a member of a minority group to recognize the challenges they face that you do not. You don’t need to be a great general to change the course of history.

What you need is a passion to be a positive influence in someone’s life, compassion for those around you in need, and as much love in your heart as you can possibly muster.

At the reception I held my daughter’s hand and waist and shared a quiet dance with her, and told her that I loved her. Then I found a chair alongside my mom and sister and brothers, and watched my two daughters and my new son-in-law and all of their friends energize the air as they danced and laughed into the warm summer night.

My granddaughter grew tired and my wife got her ready for bed.

Things are going to be all right.

The Haarstads Rothsay, Minn.

“I’m very happy how the crops are looking,” John Haarstad reported to The Land July 31. That’s a big change from how things were going not too long ago on the Haarstad farm. He reported that his corn has recovered well after wind and hail did a number on it over two weeks ago. “I’m pleasantly surprised at how it came

back.” Haarstad believes that the value of the rain “outweighed the cost of the damage.” The corn “looks really good” and he’s “very happy with how they (beans) look.” The soybeans are being sprayed for aphids. Meanwhile, Haarstad is looking forward, and getting equipment ready for harvest. “We are progressing well; we are cautiously optimistic.”

The Froemmings Garfield, Minn.

Rodney Froemming is in the midst of rye harvest; so far he’s happy with this “fairly good crop and test weight.” When The Land spoke with Froemming on July 31, he reported harvesting in “good conditions.” He’ll soon begin wheat harvest. The moisture rate isn’t quite what he would like — “just need a few more days.”

Meanwhile, “The corn is looking really good,” he said, and he has “lots of waist-high beans.” He’s done spraying for aphids. The weather has been in the “low 80s; very low humidity.” Thankfully for Froemming it’s been “decent working conditions.” Bottom-line: “Everything is progressing.”

The Filzens Renville, Minn.

“If we get one more shot of rain, we should be set for a nice harvest.” That was Dale Filzen’s prediction when The Land spoke with him on July 31. While the crops have received some precipitation in the last two weeks, a little more would be welcome. The sugar beets are being sprayed with fungicide — “For the most part, they look good.” Beet pre-pile will begin Aug. 7 — the earliest Filzen has experienced. Half of his

soybeans are sprayed, which is good because “in the last week they (aphids) have really exploded.” Meanwhile, the corn “looks good ... everything is tasseled out and still pollinating.” The crop has “good color.” Filzen said the navy beans are “doing pretty good.” With three or four weeks until harvest, he said “they’re starting to turn.”

Overall, “everything looks real good.”

The Thorpes Canby, Minn.

When The Land spoke with Nathan Thorpe on July 24 he was happy to report “things are pretty good out here; the crop is progressing super nice.” The corn is “well into pollination ... the soybeans are excellent,” he said, and the plants are “shading in the rows.” Unfortunately, water hemp is also flourishing. Thorpe said it’s the worst he has ever seen — “I think Roundup has run its course.” Meanwhile, timely rains have

fallen and for Thorpe, he’s not used to that happening this part of the summer. “It’s usually quite dry this time of year,” he said. Not this year, however, and the crops seem to be thriving with the

The Pagels Winthrop, Minn.

“A guy can’t complain.”

Delayne Pagel sure isn’t going to, anyway, when talking about how his crops are doing. The Land spoke with Pagel on July 23 and he was pleased with the weather conditions and the effect it was having. “The weather has been perfect,” he said.

“The corn looks really good. It’s pretty much all

tasseling (and) the soybeans are coming around.”

The third round of Liberty that Pagel sprayed did a good job of stopping water hemp, and he plans on spraying the beans for aphids in about a week.

Meanwhile the kidney beans are also looking good; Pagel will be spraying them for white mold.

Wheat harvest will begin next week — “The heads look pretty good,” he said. With wheat harvest about to begin, the crops looking good and the weather cooperating, apparently a guy really can’t complain.

The Marbles Mapleton, Minn.

“Absolutely perfect,” said Harlan Marble on July 23, summing up the condition of his crops. Marble told The Land he was thrilled with how his corn is doing — six and a half to seven feet tall with ears chest-high. The crop is all pollinated with some of the silks turning brown.

Meanwhile the soybeans are “blossoming and

setting pods.” Marble sprayed his beans July 20 “for white mold, aphids and everything else.” The beans are growing as well as the corn: “Some were above my waist,” he said. “For us (in this area) it couldn’t be any better.”

The Kemps Sibley, Iowa Brian Kemp reported to The Land on July 23 that while “the crops are looking good,” he would welcome some rain. The corn is at tasseling stage, he said, and “When it gets very hot and humid days it shows signs of stress.” The soybeans so far have encountered “very little aphid activity.” The current issue with the beans is escaped water hemp, Kemp said. “It continues to be more of a problem.” He has done some spot

spraying, but “If aphids become a problem I’ll switch my focus to that.” A few hot, sticky days have come and gone this summer on the Kemp farm — “miserable” he called them — “but for the most part it’s been tolerable.” As for the how the crops will fair, he said the “final outcome is going to depend on rainfall between now and harvest.”

The Heusinkvelds Wykoff, Minn.

Hay is the name of the game right now for Nate Heusinkveld. The Land spoke with Heusinkveld on July 26 as he was getting ready to start the third hay cutting. The weather has included many half-inch rains — “Perfect for growing, not so much for haying.” The corn is “about 100 percent tasseled; it looks really good now.”

Heusinkveld will continue to work on the addition to his calf barn these next few weeks along with

finishing that third cut of hay. The crops are “probably ahead of schedule,” he said.

being planted late and in poor conditions, but “all the other crops are doing well.” Pulk said that “it will be nice to get into harvest, to see what you have out there.”

Meanwhile, he got to enjoy some time with the family at the Roseau County Fair. Among the noteworthy activities was Pulk’s daughter, Sarah, showing a calf for 4-H — “It was the highlight of her whole summer.”

The Pulks Wannaska, Minn.

“It’s finally starting to dry out here.” Andy Pulk reported to The Land Aug. 2 that blue skies were back after a rainy July — nine inches worth. With better conditions, he hopes to get back to spraying soybeans as the “aphids are really bad.” Pulk believes that “we should be on par for a decent crop.” The corn is all tasseled. Wheat harvest should begin around Aug. 10-12, “right on normal schedule.” The sunflowers are struggling due to

‘Roosevelt’s Fair’ was one for the history books

By TIM KING The Land Correspondent The 1901 Minnesota State Fair was known as Roosevelt’s fair, according to the authors of “History of the Minnesota State Agricultural Society; From Its Organization in 1854 to the Annual Meeting of 1910.” It was also the most successful fair in the Agricultural Society’s history. Tickets sales were $87,153.05, up nearly $20,000 from the record set the year before, and 70,000 people attended the dayand night-time grandstand shows.

“Vice President ‘Teddy’ Roosevelt has accepted the invitation to visit the fair next September,” an undated newspaper clipping from the Agricultural Society’s files reports. “It is probable that he will be heard by as many thousand people as can get within the sound of his voice.”

The year 1901 was still part of an era when great oratory moved people and Roosevelt was a bigger-than-life American hero. He was a cowboy, the former governor of New York, and the Commander of Roosevelt’s RoughRiders during the Spanish-American War. His popularity was, in part, responsible for bringing William McKinley to the White House.

As popular as Teddy Roosevelt was, the notice of his acceptance to open the 1901 Fair with a stirring speech was at the bottom of the brief newspaper article.

The lead?

“Vice President Chester R. Smith of the state fair board is back from Chicago, where he went to arrange with the Pains Fireworks company for a display for the coming fair. He was more than successful. A contract has been made with the Pains for the pres-

entation of their new and remodeled ‘Last Day of Pompeii.’”

Roosevelt was the sort of man who didn’t mind competing with a fireworks exhibition put on by the internationallyknown Pain’s Fireworks. In fact most everyone has heard of Pompeii, the ancient Roman City buried by the volcanic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, and most Americans are familiar with Roosevelt’s “Speak Softly But Carry A Big Stick” policy but mostly nobody remembers that September 1901 fireworks exhibition.

Roosevelt Day The Agricultural Society Board of Directors declared that Monday, Sept. 2, the first day of the fair, would be Roosevelt Day. The Vice President would speak in front of the newly expanded grandstand at 11 a.m. Following that would be a reception and lunch with prominent guests. Then the Vice President with rock star status would tour the exhibits.

At the board meeting that they declared opening day to be Roosevelt Day the Directors announced that the fairgrounds would now have a post office.

They also announced that it would have new washrooms with running water. The men’s would have a barbershop and the women’s would include a nursery.

The running water, which would come from connecting with the City of St. Paul, was deemed necessary more for fire protection than flush toilets. In 1900, a large fire on the grounds was nearly impossible to suppress because of an inadequate water supply.

Roosevelt is reported to have arrived in Minneapolis at 9 a.m. that Monday.

See TEDDY, pg. 9

Roosevelt: Nation should ‘speak softly, carry a big stick’ compares the character of a soft-spoken man with that of a soft-spoken nation. He makes the comparison while building the case for America to play a role in international affairs.

“Right here let me make as vigorous a plea as I know how in favor of saying nothing that we do not mean, and of acting without hesitation up to whatever we say. A good many of you are probably acquainted with the old proverb: ‘Speak softly and carry a big stick — you will go far.’

“If a man continually blusters, if he lacks civility, a big stick will not save him from trouble; and neither will speaking softly avail, if back of the softness there does not lie strength, power. So it is with the nation.”

A few minutes earlier the-presidentto-be dropped another word bomb that continues to resonate in this era of too-

big-to-fail banks and corporations with the rights of persons.

“Yet more and more it is evident that the State, and if necessary the nation, has got to possess the right of supervision and control as regards the great corporations which are its creatures; particularly as regards the great business combinations which derive a portion of their importance from the existence of some monopolistic tendency.”

After the speech, and no doubt before the reception, Roosevelt, sitting ramrod straight and wearing a top hat and tails, was photographed in profile mounted on a magnificent horse.

It was no doubt a rousing but forgettable speech by another Vice President

of the United States.

The Fair went on. But, on Friday, Sept. 6, President McKinley was shot in Buffalo, N.Y. He was not mortally wounded but on Sept. 14, he died from a gangrenous infection.

Vice President Theodore Roosevelt became President of the United States and his policy of talking softly and carrying a big stick became national policy. He also became the nation’s trustbuster and took on the monopolies of Minnesota’s James J. Hill and New York’s Jay Rockefeller.

Thanks to an assassin’s bullet and poor medical care, the 1901 Minnesota State Fair made national and world history. ❖

TEDDY, from pg. 8 He drove from there to the fairgrounds by automobile — something of a novelty in 1901.

“All streets adjoining the Washington Avenue and 6th Street loop were black with people, eager to see the only Teddy,” a newspaper clipping reports. “...two trips were made about the loop, the car advancing slowly closely hemmed in by the crowd. Roosevelt stood upon the rear platform and by bows and signs acknowledged the ovation.

“The crowd at the fair grounds when Roosevelt opened the big show was immense. He spoke for half an hour and was enthusiastically received.”

— Debra Durheim mentor to them.”

Fair memories But the State Fair should not be all work and no play, according to Debra and Delvin.

“The State Fair is a place for youngsters to meet new friends and create life-long memories,” Debra said. “We want to make an environment in the barn where they have time to do that, as well as to care for their exhibits.”

The Durheims also watch out for the young people, especially the youngest and those who are at the State Fair for the first time. Some of the youngsters are just out of sixth grade and a watchful adult eye and some extra care can mean the difference between a happy or unhappy memory.

“Most of the kids are great,” said Delvin, “but like

DURHEIMS, from pg. 10 The 4-H youngsters take that responsibility seriously because as farm kids, they want to promote agriculture.

Herdsmanship The fact that the 4-H’ers can receive ribbons in herdsmanship if they keep the stalls and animals in beautiful condition provides extra motivation.

“They are judged in the barn two times a day, Thursday through Saturday, and once on Sunday,” Debra said. “We find the judges to do that.”

Judges score stalls and animals on a point system from one to 100. Livestock, poultry and rabbits each have a different basis for obtaining points. All 4H’ers are judged on courtesy. Appearance and cleanliness of pens and stalls in livestock and poultry is rated highly. Dry and adequate shavings for rabbits are also scored heavily. Proper placement of stall cards is important.

There are numerous other factors on which the young exhibitors can get points toward a ribbon. The kids take all aspects of herdsmanship seriously and sometimes even arrange bedding by lining the straws up and then taking care not to step on the bedding, according to the Durheims.

Delvin, who also judges livestock, likes to give the 4-H’ers tips on how to make their exhibit look sharp.

“For example, if they have cattle I show them how to arrange them from the biggest to the smallest so they look pleasing to the eye,” he said. “I try to be a

Durheims ‘like proud aunt and uncle’ to their 4-H’ers DURHEIMS, from pg. 11 and social interaction with their 4-H peers.

It’s a lot for a young person to handle and the Durheims understand this.

When the youngsters do well they are like proud aunts and uncles. They, like the 4-H’ers, have lots of State Fair memories.

“A few years ago there was a boy who wanted to be in the dairy competition,” Delvin said. “His family didn’t own a dairy herd so he went to the sales barn and bought a calf. He worked with that animal and cared for it and ended up winning the Grand Champion Dairy Steer ribbon at the State Fair. That was really fantastic. The hard work and dedication of a lot of these 4-H kids is amazing.”

On Sunday, at the end of their stay, Debra goes through all the scores for the twice-daily herdsmanship judging and adds them up. With the totals in for each species, herdsmanship ribbons can be awarded to individual exhibitors and counties. Delvin and

Debra think the herdsmanship ribbons are extremely important, but team effort is also important.

So, starting in 2009, they inaugurated a traveling Herdsmanship Award for the top county 4-H group.

“We sponsor a traveling award that is for the county with the overall highest score,” Delvin said.

“They have to have at least four of the seven species,” Debra said. “We present the plaque at an awards ceremony each year.”

Debra and Delvin have watched the young 4-H exhibitors grow, graduate from high school and 4-H, get married and have families, and, on occasion come back to the fair as 4-H chaperones.

“Not long ago a young man we knew came to us at the fair and introduced us to his fiancée,” Debra said. “The next year they were married. For us it’s like being part of a big family. It’s very rewarding.”

Viticulturist: ‘Gorgeous’ year for Minnesota grapes but there are talented people in this industry. And both John and I really enjoy the research side of this business. We also enjoy just connecting with other grape growers too. So doing a little bit of outreach but on our own terms is a goal for both of us right now.

■ Grape research is the top priority at the Horticultural Research Center.

Over 3,000 vines are planted each year and subjected to high standards of rigorous evaluations. Currently over 100 U of M advanced selections are being tested, as well as over 400 cultivars and selections from other breeding programs.

In addition to cold hardiness and disease resistance, viticultural traits such as productivity, cluster size, growth habit, bud break and ripening times are evaluated. The center is recognized as one of the top grape wine programs in the United States.

The Horticultural Research Center is open to the public and located one mile west of the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum on Highway 5 in Chanhassen. Visit ww.arboretum.umn.ed/ bkdresearchcenter.aspx to learn more. ❖

Q: Are nets to protect against birds a must these days?

Thull: We think so. You can’t predict the challenges of any particular bird species from year to year. But why consider the risk. We use side netting which we put in place as veraison (ripening) begins. We’re probably at about 40 percent color when we net.

You don’t want stuff growing through the nets. That’s just added work so we hold off until the vines have slowed their growth.

Q: We hear about Avian Control, a spray product for bird repellent?

Are you going to use it?

Thull: No, we have nets that work well for us. Plus John has some concerns about whether there might be a lingering flavor effect. But we’ll stay posted on the product and maybe down the road we might try it.

Grain Outlook Windshield survey ‘average’ The following market analysis is for the week ending July 31.

CORN — For the second week in a row, corn gapped lower on July 26 open and never really recovered. Concern over China’s economy was heightened when their stock market plunged 8.5 percent to begin the week, the biggest one-day decline since 2007 on disappointing data. The new gap in the December contract is from $4.02 3⁄4 to this week’s high of $3.99 1⁄4 per bushel. December corn has now PHYLLIS NYSTROM CHS Hedging Inc. retraced nearly the entire rally St. Paul that began the week before the June 30 planted acreage and stocks reports. The double bottom made in the middle of June at $3.62 1⁄2 per bushel will act as first support; however if the weather continues to cooperate we are likely to see lower price levels.

I traveled the week of July 27 from the Twin Cities down through Iowa City, Quad Cities, and Peoria to Springfield, Ill., then back to the Twin Cities through Rochelle and Rockford, Ill., and Madison, Wis. Keep in mind, I did not walk any fields and my observations were from the interstate. On the trip south, I didn’t see any problems, and possibly a record crop, through Minnesota and Iowa. In the Bloomington, Ill., area you could see a few drowned out bean corners and as you went south of Springfield, corn was more uneven while beans looked very good. The other area where too much rain was apparent was in the area south of Rochelle to Interstate 80. Again, it looked like the corn would still be an average crop overall.

I know there are areas that I was told about, but didn’t see from the road, that went unplanted or will produce a below average crop. My windshield survey See NYSTROM, pg. 15

Livestock Angles Beef sinks to yearly lows July was not without its fireworks this year. Not only the physical fireworks on Independence Day, but in the livestock markets during the entire month. This was especially true in the cattle complex as prices plummeted to yearly lows, while the hog market has actually improved slightly during the month.

After months of tight supplies of cattle a weakening demand has finally neutralized these tight numbers. The beef cutout has collapsed over the past several weeks with the boxed moveJOE TEALE ment substantially slowing indiBroker cating the weakening demand for Great Plains Commodity Afton, Minn. beef. No doubt that the current supply of cattle will continue to remain tight, but the demand is now taking the lead as the dominate fundamental in the marketplace.

Several factors have helped determine this weakening in the demand side of the supply/demand equation. The strength in the U.S. dollar has reduced the export demand, as well as the competitive meats falling in price making them more attractive to the consumer. Also several reports were released by the USDA on July 24 — Monthly Cattle on Feed report and the Semi-annual Cattle Inventory report.

The results of the Cattle on Feed report were as follows: On feed July 1, 102 percent; Placed in June, 101 percent; and marketed in June, 95 percent. This report was interpreted as slightly negative due to the higher than expected placements.

The results of the Cattle Inventory report were as follows: All cattle and Calves 101.7 percent, Annual Calf Crop 101.4 percent. However the one category that caught a lot of interest was the beef replacement heifers at 105.1 percent. This indicates that in the See TEALE, pg. 15

Grain Angles Transitioning the farm This column is part of a series of articles on succession and transition planning. This column speaks to the transitioning of assets from one generation to the next.

Transitioning Transitioning ownership in assets can occur at any stage. It requires a clear thoughtful process that considers the economics, tax impacts, legal aspects, management plan, disaster plan and an exit plan.

No two transition plans look alike; therefore it is important to understand that another family’s CATHY OLSON transition plan may not work in AgStar Senior Business Consultant your situation. Timing is an imporGlencoe, Minn. tant consideration, especially during the next few years where compressed profit margins are likely in the grain industry.

Economics During the transition process, it’s important to consider the level of equity the senior generation must retain in order to fund their desired lifestyle. Assets such as land are often viewed as a revenue stream via rent or a contract sale for years to come. Assets such as inventory, equipment and buildings typically involve more complex tax issues. Additionally as they approach their exit from the business, the senior generation may also need to work through retiring their remaining debts.

Deferred taxes The grain industry had a string of profitable years resulting in deferred income taxes for many producers, from prepaying input costs, accelerated depreciation on capital purchases, and carry-over grain sales.

Therefore, a solid tax strategy must be designed to avoid unintended negative tax consequences. Have a clear understanding of the long range vision before transitioning ownership in assets. Keep in mind that See OLSON, pg. 15

Nystrom: Soybeans ‘ready to bear a good crop’

Hogs holding steady

helped keep pork cutouts nearly the same during the period.

Export demand has been slowed because of the strength in the U.S. dollar, however, domestic demand has held well to create the stability in the pork cutouts. As we move into the fall it appears that the hog market is acting very sluggish. Cold storage figures indicate that there is plenty of pork as well as all the competitive meats. This could weaken hog prices during the latter part of the summer months and into the fall. This is definitely reflected in the futures market where deferred contracts are at a distinct discount to the current futures month.

Therefore producers should approach the market with protection in mind and use strength to protect inventories when the opportunity presents itself. ❖

wait to see what the refreshed acreage number on Aug. 12 tells us.

As of July 26, the soybean crop rating was unchanged at 62 percent good/excellent; however, one percent moved from the good category to the excellent category. And 34 percent of the crop was setting pods versus 31 percent on average.

U.S. soybeans have been uncompetitive for quite some time. Trade chatter this week hinted that China was buying soybeans as far out as March from South American origins, as well as the August-September-October time slot. Our total export commitments for the 2015-16 crop year are 293.7 million bushels, down from last year’s 588 million bushels. This equates to a 50 percent drop from last year, and 36.8 percent behind the fiveyear average, when the USDA is anticipating only a 2.7 percent year on year decline in exports.

The USDA announced the delay of the reinstated oilseed crush report from Aug. 3 to Oct. 1 due to the lack of survey data. The report will include crush data for May through August.

After the initial report, it will be released at the beginning of every month. This report was discontinued in 2012 due to budget cuts. ❖

Olson: Planning choices impact taxes, cash flow OLSON, from pg. 14 each planning alternative impacts cash flow, income taxes, equity position and debt management in a different manner, so a detailed analysis is the only way to be sure that the optimal alternative is being selected.

Plan options Some plans set up a successor as a sole proprietor by allowing them to rent acres on their own. Profits can be used for capital purchases. Over time the successor can increase their actively farmed acres and begin building their equipment line, allowing the senior generation to gradually reduce their investment in equipment.

Other groups will set up an entity such as a partnership, limited liability company or corporation. There are variations on these entity structures and this is not a “one size fits all” approach. Creating an entity results in people being legally bound and the start-up decision making phase can be overwhelming.

Legal documents like the buy-sell

agreement and the governance must be carefully considered. Over time, the entity can transfer to the successor generation through purchase options or gifting, depending on economics and long range objectives.

“Where Farm and Family Meet”

TEALE, from pg. 14 months ahead the rebuilding of the cattle herd is in full swing. This would be long term negative from a supply standpoint. In the short term, the cattle market is moving into an oversold condition which could bring about a short-term rally in prices since numbers are still tight.

The fact that we have moved into new yearly lows is an indication that the top of the cattle market is probably now behind us. Producers should be cognizant of these market changes and protect inventories as needed.

The hog market has fared much better than the cattle market through the month of July. Prices have virtually remained steady as numbers have decreased ever so slightly during the month. This coupled with fairly stable demand for pork has

$9.40 1⁄4 per bushel.

They are down $1.13 1⁄4 from the July 14 high to this week’s $9.31 3⁄4 per bushel low.

For the month of July they plummeted 97 cents or 9.35 percent of value from the June 30 close at $10.37 1⁄4 to today’s $9.40 1⁄4 close. Fund selling and end user buying from South America added to the negative tone of the market.

In the Commitment of Traders report ending July 28, fund length was 37,700 contracts, down 42,600 contracts from the previous week. If weather doesn’t present any threat leading up to the Aug. 12 crop report, traders will focus on what the result will be from the resurveyed soybean acres. This may slow the slide in prices. The next support in November soybeans will be in the $9.00 area.

My unofficial and unscientific crop tour (see area covered in the corn section) indicated to me that soybeans do indeed look better than they did three to four weeks ago. In some areas where beans were relatively short for the date on the calendar, they now look uniform and clean, still blooming and ready to bear a good crop regardless of height. Acreage will likely end up being the key to crop size. We’ll have to

high end of expectations. Sales for 2015-16 are 169.2 million bushels compared to 275.1 million on the books at this time last year. This is 38.5 percent decline year on year and 36.5 percent behind the five-year average. The USDA is forecasting a 1.3 percent year on year increase in U.S. corn exports.

Reports of South American corn headed to the U.S. eastern seaboard may result in the 2015-16 export balance sheet line to be reduced. There were trade rumors that 600,000 metric tons of South American corn has been sold into the United States for delivery from September through November.

The Buenos Aires Grain Exchange raised its corn production estimate from 25 million metric tons to 26 mmt (USDA is at 25 mmt) with 79 percent of the crop harvested at month end.

The International Grains Council also increased its Chinese corn production by 5 mmt to a record 225 mmt.

U.S. weekly ethanol production fell this week by 8,000 barrels per day to 965,000 barrels per day. Stocks of ethanol fell 89,000 barrels to 19.6 million barrels, continuing their downward trend that began in February.

SOYBEANS — Most of the soybeans basis numbers rolled to the November contract this week, so we’ll focus on that month for our discussion. November soybeans gapped a nickel lower to begin the week, leaving a gap from $9.65 to this week’s high of $9.60 per bushel. November soybeans were off 24 3⁄4 cents for the week to settle at

NYSTROM, from pg. 14 and taking into consideration the highly variable crop in Indiana and Ohio, I would expect an average to slightly above average corn crop.

The condition of U.S. corn as of July 26 improved one percent to 70 percent good/excellent with 78 percent of the crop silking compared to 77 percent average. The trade is likely using a 164-166 bushels per acre yield and I see no reason to argue with that assumption.

Price action this week would seem to confirm my observations. Fund selling just piled on the negativity as recent length began to go under water. In the most recent commitment of traders’ report as of July 28 showed fund length fell 28,700 to net long 179,200 contracts. It was estimated they sold up to another 10,000 contracts as of Aug. 1.

Our uncompetitive status on the global scene is becoming an issue as well. December corn has plunged from the rally high of $4.54 1⁄4 on July 14 to this week’s low of $3.75 3⁄4 per bushel for a 78 1⁄2 cent loss. It dropped 50 1⁄4 cents from $4.31 1⁄2 on June 30 to today’s $3.81 1⁄4 close, equating to an 11 percent decline. For the week, September and December corn were each 21 1⁄2 cents lower at $3.71 and $3.81 1⁄4 respectively. The next support level in December corn is $3.62 1⁄2 per bushel, the June low.

This week’s export sales were 14.4 million bushels for old crop and 17.5 million bushels for new crop, on the

USDA adds $1 million to Livestock Gross Margin funds This column was written for the marketing week ending July 31.

Matt Gould, analyst and editor of the Dairy and Food Market Analyst newsletter, blamed hot weather in the Midwest for the rally in cheese and butter this week in the July 31 DairyLine. He said that milk supplies had plateaued but are beginning to decline and, with demand strong, it

has caught some short of cheese for their buyers so cheese is tight in the Midwest.

The drop in milk production in California is behind the rise in butter, according to Gould, where about a third of U.S. butter is manufactured, and regarding nonfat dry milk, Gould says prices have continuously been pounded lower.

Next week’s Global Dairy Trade will give a new price signal, he said, but sources tell him buyers are bidding for powder below the Chicago Mercantile Exchange so, while he believes it’s close to the bottom, “we haven’t seen it yet.”

Dairy industry woes here at home continue on the fluid front. May 2015 packaged fluid milk sales totaled 4.0 billion pounds, down 3.7 percent from May 2014, according to USDA’s

■ U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Farm Service Agency announced a June 2015 Margin Protection Program for Dairy margin of about $8.16 per hundredweight. Dairy Herd Management’s Dave Natzke says “That pushes the average margin for the May-June pay period to $7.995/cwt., meaning only those producers insured at the $8.00/cwt. level will see a small indemnity payment, and even that will be reduced by federal budget sequestration.”

As U.S. dairy producers contemplate signing up for the next round of the MPP, the USDA announced that it has made another $1 million in subsidy money available for Livestock Gross Margin-Dairy insurance, according to Ron Mortensen, with Dairy Gross Margin, LLC., in a Dairy Today interview.

The additional sales periods will be Aug, 28 and Sept. 25. Full annual subsidy funding will be available for the Oct. 30 sales period. Dairy farmers who have not signed up for the Dairy MPP are eligible to use LGM-Dairy, but they cannot use both. “If you start using LGM-Dairy past January of 2016, you must stay with LGM-Dairy for 2016. The signup and reallocation deadline for MPP is Sept. 30, 2015,” notes Mortensen.

■ In politics; the National Milk Producers Federation and U.S. Dairy Export Council Friday praised Senate Finance Committee leadership for urging Canada to allow more trade in agricultural products, including dairy, as an outcome of the negotiations over the Trans-Pacific Partnership. If Canada is not willing to allow more dairy trade as a result of the TPP, it risks being left out of the agreement, according to the Senate members.

In a letter to Gary Doer, Canada’s ambassador to the United States, Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and senior Democrat Ron Wyden, DOre., said Canada’s ability to “commit to significant and commercially meaningful market access for all remaining agricultural products, including dairy, will have a significant impact on Congress’ view of the final agreement. In fact, our support for a final TPP agreement that includes Canada is contingent on Canada’s ability to meet the TPP’s high standards.”

Watonwan County Fair, St. James, Minn.

Watonwan County 4-H’er Allison Wolle

“Where Farm and Family Meet”

C

ounty fairs are wrapping up across Minnesota and Iowa. For many small towns and farm families, the county fair is a summer ritual that brings the whole community together.

In St. James on July 18, everyone met their friends at the Watonwan County Fair. Young people and their animals passed a hot summer day in the barns. Fans whirred to keep things cool.

Riders practiced in the horse arena, livestock was bought and sold at the 4-H and FFA Auction, and 4H projects were on display for all to see. The poultry barn was quiet due to avian influenza, but young

poultry growers created displays and demonstrated their knowledge before an audience.

A girls softball tournament took place behind the fairgrounds. Between games, the teams played bingo — three cards for a dollar. The lucky ones yelled “Bingo” and went home with a case of pop.

Barkers on the midway convinced people they could win a stuffed animal by throwing a ring over a glass bottle. Most went home broke and empty handed, but it was sure fun trying.

Brave teens hopped on a ride that was an extreme ferris wheel. Up in the air they went in closed cars

that spun them upside down. The little ones were content on the carousel and spinning bears.

The smell of corndogs and cheese curds filled the air. Fresh squeezed lemonade refreshed hot fairgoers and dairy treats were so thick they were eaten with a spoon.

As the county fairgrounds go dark for another year, we look forward to the Minnesota and Iowa State Fairs.

Good luck to the 4-H and FFA members heading to the state fair! We’ll meet you there. ❖
