Rep. Cramer’s anti-biofuel spin falls flat By John Jorgensen FARGO, N.D. — In a recent column published on Capitol Hill, North Dakota Republican Congressman Kevin Cramer acknowledged that the Renewable Fuel Standard “has helped make America the world’s largest biofuel producer and created thousands of jobs in the heartland.” He then called for its elimination. North Dakota’s farmers, scientists, renewable energy producers and consumers can be forgiven for their confusion. Cramer’s mixed message reflects the latest strategy by some lobbyists to eliminate competition at U.S. gas stations and slow the production of homegrown biofuels in rural communities across the country. The RFS requires refineries to blend renewable biofuels into new options for consumers at the pump. As a result, the standard offering at U.S. fueling stations is currently a 10 percent ethanol mix (E10), which helps insulate consumers against spikes in the price of oil, saving them anywhere from 50 cents to $1.50 per gallon. It also reduces carbon emissions and curbs our dependence on foreign oil. More recently, many retailers

Unchecked lies in Washington, D.C., have a way of gaining traction, and Cramer’s latest salvo against rural America is proof. began offering E15, a higher ethanol blend that yields greater savings with an even smaller environmental footprint. To slow the competition, oil companies are trying to convince policymakers to eliminate the program. They claim the RFS falls apart in 2022, when the law gives EPA discretion over targets for U.S. biofuels. For the preceding years, Congress had provided some specific targets. In reality, nothing changes in 2022, because the EPA already sets the targets on renewable fuels, with only limited regard for the numbers Congress laid out in 2005 and 2007. It’s a decision made each year, with input from oil companies, biofuel producers, consumers, farmers, policymakers and the like. The idea that EPA could completely ignore the law in

2022, setting outlandish targets, is a good argument for congressional oversight, but it’s far from a justification for eliminating America’s most successful strategy for achieving energy security. Cramer’s other argument in favor of eliminating the RFS is that we no longer need biofuels because gasoline consumption is down. Oddly, he cites the Department of Energy’s U.S. Energy Information Administration, which recently reported that motor fuel consumption this year may be the “highest annual average gasoline consumption on record, surpassing the previous record set in 2007.” More importantly, America still imports about a fourth of its petroleum, often lining the pockets of unfriendly regimes around the world. In truth, there is absolutely no justification for rewriting or eliminating the RFS. Con-

Meat industry reports to be feared BEMIDJI, Minn. — What really scares me are the latest reports about the meat industry. Like news of pig farms dumping millions of gallons of pig feces into North Carolina’s water supplies during Hurricane Matthew. Or of saturating their neighborhoods with windborne fecal waste spray. Or of animal farming accounting for more greenhouse gases than transportation. Like recurring media exposes of horrific atrocities against animals on factory farms. Or of subjecting slaughterhouse workers to crippling work-

I am no longer scared, though I still fear for my friends and neighbors. place injuries at slave wages. Or of exploiting farmers by controlling prices. Like repeated reports of studies linking consumption of animal products with elevated risk of diabetes,

heart disease, stroke, cancer and other killer diseases. Or reports of the meat industry bullying health authorities to remove warnings from dietary guidelines. Now, that’s really scary. I fought back by dropping animal products from my menu, and my local supermarket has rewarded me with a colorful display of fresh fruits and veggies, as well as a rich selection of plantbased meats, milks, cheeses and ice creams. I am no longer scared, though I still fear for my friends and neighbors. Blair Pinkerton Bemidji, Minn.

ventional ethanol consumption is already near the final 15-billion-gallon target set by Congress in 2007, which means that repealing the law will only hurt rural communities, end development of advanced biofuels, and allow fossil fuels to regain their monopoly over our choices at the pump. That’s why it is so important for 852,000 Americans who have jobs supported by a robust biofuel sector to stay vigilant against poorly-disguised attempts to gut the RFS. We can’t forfeit America’s best opportunity to lead the world in homegrown, low-carbon energy. Unchecked lies in Washington, D.C., have a way of gaining traction, and Cramer’s latest salvo against rural America is proof. He obviously understands how much biofuels have meant to our community — jobs, cleaner air, lower costs — but his plan for the future would cast all those benefits aside based on false assumptions planted by a few D.C. insiders.

Loose livestock leads to arrest of N.D. man NORTHWOOD, N.D. — A Grand Forks (N.D.) County man faces criminal charges after authorities say he let his livestock roam free. Joseph Robert Hedrick, 43, has been charged with one count of stock running at large prohibited, a misdemeanor, after deputies determined his livestock was out of control. Hedrick initially was charged in July 2015, but his case was deferred, court records show. His case recently was reopened with additional complaints. A warrant was issued for his arrest Oct. 25. Lt. Gary Grove with the Grand Forks Sheriff’s Office says his deputies have received multiple calls to Hedrick’s property in rural Northwood, N.D., on reports of loose cattle. “In the past, he’s had numerous stray cattle reported,” Grove says. Stray cattle are considered a traffic hazard.

Hundreds of pigs disposed of after accidental death ROSEAU COUNTY, Minn. — Hundreds of pigs that died in a farming accident in Northern Minnesota were disposed of in a rendering plant,

authorities say. Michael Crusan, communications director of the Minnesota Board of Animal Health says 473 pigs died in a farming accident in Roseau County on Oct. 26. The Board of Animal Health visited the farm within 72 hours of the incident, Crusan says, and helped determine what to do with the carcasses. If the caracasses are left out for more than 72 hours, sanitary and health issues can arise, Crusan says. Ultimately it was determined the pigs would go to a rendering plant. “A recycling facility where they would render that material and re-purpose it,” Crusan says, describing the role of rendering plants. On the Board of Animal Health website rendering plants are described as the “ultimate recyclers” and a necessary service for livestock management. Products often made from rendered materials include soap, crayons and antifreeze. The Roseau County Sheriff’s Office says they were not involved in the incident as no foul play was suspected or human life endangered. Minnesota Department of Agriculture Communications Director Margaret Hart says her agency was not involved in the case, which general-

ly would fall under the jurisdiction of the Animal Board of Health. She says with herd loss, her department occasionally receives requests to help farmers from a financial standpoint, but they have not been contacted in this case.

Consumers and producers should communicate to understand processes WISHEK, N.D. — As you harvest the bounty of your labor, do you ever think about the crop’s journey beyond your field? It’s been a passion of mine for a decade to monitor public perception of agriculture, engage non-ag consumers and tell my story of agriculture. That’s not always the case for some farmers and ranchers who say advocating for ag is for younger people. Sharing what you do and why you do it is for all of us in agriculture. Why? Because production agriculture is a tiny slice of America, less than 2 percent, and the public is craving to know farmers and ranchers, and how their food is raised. Ultimately, the food buyers — not just in the U.S. but abroad — are one of many “bosses” in agriculture. I spoke on a “Meet Your New Boss” panel recently at an Agcatalyst conference in Minneapolis. Attendees varied from college of agriculture students to large agribusiness and food company executives. Earlier this fall, far from a big city, I spoke in Hettinger, N.D., at a public perceptions and livestock industry training session, hosted by the North Dakota State University Livestock and Environmental Stewardship. It’s motivating and encouraging to see people from the grassroots farmer and rancher level to the corporate agribusiness level sharing their stories with consumers. Despite the frustrations, there has been success building trust and valued relationships to bridge non-ag consumer groups to agriculture. While we’re fiercely independent in agriculture, and the term “boss” makes the hair on the back of our necks rise, non-ag consumers impact food choices and policy. We should consider them a boss among many in agriculture. We can dig in our heels and be frustrated, or we can evolve and look at this challenge as the greatest food and agriculture opportunity of our generation. We have access to new communication channels and methods to share our stories, no matter our locations and an audience who wants to know. I feel like I’ve been preaching this gospel for many years, but the need for agriculture advocacy is not going away. It has to grow with each generation to give a voice to a minority population that grows our food. Don’t shy away from the issues. Listen to the concerns. Prepare for the questions. Simply share how you raise your crops and livestock, but don’t bring up how your farming neighbor might do things differently. It’s the season to listen, share and give. Seize the opportunity in agriculture.

REGIONAL NEWS

Ag career prospects good Still more jobs than graduates By Mikkel Pates Agweek Staff Writer BISMARCK, N.D. — The bad news is that a downward ag economy will tighten belts for companies hiring in agriculture. The good news is there will still be more jobs available than graduates pursuing them, according to speakers at a recent event for youth, sponsored by the North Dakota Stockmen’s Association. The NDSA hosted a Top Hand Beef Leadership Summit, aimed at ages 14 to 20. The group heard from academic and business professionals, and toured working cattle ranches and facilities. Carmel Miller, an associate professor of Agriculture, Technology and Natural Resources at Bismarck (N.D.) State College, said there are

predictions there are more than 50,000 jobs available for students with agriculture degrees, and there were only 30,000 students emerging annually with those degrees. “Those jobs still need to be filled and the ag industry is still a place to find jobs,” she said.

5 sought skills Miller discussed the findings of a survey conducted by AgCareers.com, a place where employers and prospective employees can share information. The top five “employability skills” were: n Communication — Being able to talk, speak and listen, and “have a presence and communication well with others. n A sense of urgency — Employers are looking for workers that are “go-getters, who want to know everything about the business, and

learn it fast,” she said. They don’t want a lackadaisical attitude displayed by some people, that “if I don’t learn it today, I can learn it tomorrow, or maybe I don’t even have to learn this.” n Professionalism — This means dressing appropriately, speaking clearly. “It means knowing there is a difference between professional and personal opinion” on the job, and when to know whether to talk and give an opinion. n Life-long learning — Employers want well-rounded curiosity and interest in a wider world, she said. “Just because you’re in livestock doesn’t mean you’re not interested in art, or history, or farming and other industries,” Miller said. n Problem-solving — This means being able to solve a problem yourself rather than waiting for someone to help you.

More services Miller said agriculture has changed in ways that expand agricultural careers. In the past, agriculture was fairly stable. For example, cattle prices followed a pattern and trend. “Prices would maybe go down for five years and then up for five years,” she explained. “People would know kind of their financial status for a long time. Maybe it wasn’t a high financial status, but at least they knew where they stood.” In the past decade there were fantastic returns in agriculture, and now there are some steep downturns. “What’s problematic about it is there’s more volatility, and farmers and ranchers aren’t able to forecast what prices they’re going to get. It’s much harder to market,” she said. “Also, technology has changed to be more efficient and mechanized.” Farms are getting larger. “Also, people are more interested in their food,” she said. “People who have nothing to do with agriculture have more interest in how you farm

or raise your animals.” All of the changes have opened opportunities in the service sector of agriculture. Farm owners might perform less mechanical work, less equipment operation, and might depend on professional services for marketing and accounting services. “All these service sector jobs are available that maybe weren’t there a couple decades ago,” she said.

Outside the box Salaries for agricultural students remain strong. Two-year associate degree students at age 20 can start at $45,000 in agronomy, but other students might start at $15 an hour, which translates to about $31,200 a year. National surveys show that animal science bachelor’s degree-earners can start at $75,000. “I tend to think that’s a little high for our area,” she said. She expects a downward trend in some jobs because of the down commodity prices. “I think we’re seeing that most drastically in the equipment dealers,” she said. “There have been some layoffs. I expect the agronomy thing will slow down. Farmers will save on inputs and have to cut somewhere in order to make a living.” Bill Price, owner of Price Cattle Ranch, Missouri River Feeders and Global Beef, talked about his world of agriculture. Nine years ago, he and others launched a company that brings beef seed stock to Kazakhstan. He told students “when you look regionally, there is a glut” of agricultural production, but “globally, there is more demand than ever before.” Price urged the attendees to look more globally than regionally and to look at everything agriculture has to offer — cattle, hogs and dairy — but also other elements of agriculture. “No. 1, they should go to an ag school and get an education, and hopefully they can grow from that,” he said. “I would be learning different languages — more Russian, Spanish, German, Chinese and Korean. The market has gone so global,” he said. “Somebody has to deal with these countries to sell our products. Who can talk their language?”

Livestock killings gain attention Rancher near DAPL pipeline protests looks for answers By Mikkel Pates Agweek Staff Writer Agweek reporter Mikkel Pates recently spent several days in the Dakota Access Pipeline protest areas of Sioux and Morton counties in North Dakota. In the second of a two-part series, Pates examines the complicated circumstances surrounding the reported killing and maiming of cattle and horses in the area, and how life on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation isn’t always as it seems.

Jack Paul Thomas ranches near Cannon Ball, N.D. He has reported numerous animals missing or maimed in the neighborhood of the Sacred Stone Camp.

CANNON BALL, N.D. — The killing and injuring of cattle and horses is one of the most emotionally charged incidents associated with the pipeline protests in Sioux and Morton Counties in North Dakota. Authorities are investigating reports of livestock being killed or butchered — some even shot with arrows and left to suffer. The reports have made national news and helped build a case for a stronger

law enforcement response in the area of the protests. For any outsider, the facts in the situation are hard to pin down. The most notable cases involve Jack Paul Thomas, a white rancher who has a Native American fiance. The couple live on a ranch site owned by his brother, Frank, about a half-mile east and south of Cannon Ball, N.D., which is a reservation settlement of about 200 people. Cattle death incidents have occurred on a 360-acre pasture that lies adjacent to the Camp of the Sacred Stone, the original protester camp established around April 1. While Thomas says he’s a victim in this case, he has his own history of legal problems. Most recently, on Oct. 19, a neighbor accused him of stealing a horse — a charge he strongly denies. He says the “stolen” horse was recovered from his corral, but it was in plain sight of North Dakota Highway 1806. He has appeared in court once on that case. More significantly, he has a string of legal convictions and has served time for livestock theft, but says that doesn’t have anything to do with the cattle deaths.

It’s complicated Thomas, 49, is white but has lived in the Cannon Ball area all his life. His fiance, Jeffrie Marie Cavanaugh-Thomas, 31, is an enrolled member of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. Together, the couple operates J&J Thomas and Sons Horse and Cattle Company, a cow-calf and quarterhorse business. Jack says they have about 400 cows and more than 200 horses. Significantly, the Thomas family is involved in a lease dispute with LaDonna (Brave Bull) Allard, the central figure in the Sacred Stone Camp. Allard, 60, a professional historian and genealogist for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, says she has attempted to terminate a lease that Thomas claims on the pasture, which is on land owned by the Brave Bull family. She lives 25 miles south at Fort Yates, and started the prayer camp on Army Corps land next to the 360-acre pasture, where the recent livestock incidents have occurred. This past June, Allard filed to establish a nonprofit company to build a cultural, environmental youth camp

on the land where Thomas maintains his cattle, and where cattle have been injured, killed or have gone missing. Thomas says he runs cattle on about 6,000 acres total — about 500 acres in the Cannon Ball area, including the 360-acre Brave Bull tract. He says his family historically subleased the Brave Bull property from David Archambault II, the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. Now, he says the lease is in his fiance’s name. “She’s an enrolled member,” Thomas says. “It’s easier to get leases when you’re an enrolled member.” The lease, he says, is about $17 per acre. “It’s a fair rate, I guess,” he says.

shaped hole in the skin, possibly to hide what had caused the injury. “It’s a perfect cut; no animal would do that,” he says. On Oct. 26, a neighbor, George Keepseagle, found six cows and five calves that belonged to Thomas. Allard says it’s preposterous to think the camp members killed the animals for food. Butchering the animals would have been obvious and would have taken time for unskilled protesters. Many are urbanites who are vegetarian. She says the area is under constant surveillance from law enforcement. “Most of this is gossip and rumor,” Allard says.

String of claims

Saving water

On April 1, Allard started the Sacred Stones Camp, because regional tribe members needed a place to pray to “save the water” because the “DAPL pipeline was going to kill the water.”

Allard’s father, Frank Brave Bull, lived on the land now leased by the Thomas family, and raised horses and cattle. The Brave Bull family established a one-acre cemetery in

We’ve never had cattle; all of a sudden, these (Thomas) cattle show up. I don’t like cows. – LADONNA (BRAVE BULL) ALLARD She sees it as a place for prayer and vision quests. But things started heating up between Thomas and Allard through the summer, as people flooded the camp. On Sept. 27, Thomas says he found two dead black Angus cows above the Sacred Stone Camp, on the leased 360-acre pasture. He also found a dead Palomino quarter horse. “I turned it in to insurance, and from there on it gradually went on,” Thomas says. “From then until we worked cattle, that’s when I noticed we were short cattle.” On Oct. 9, he was rounding up cattle and found the heads of some of his cows behind the Sacred Stone Camp — no other remains were found. On Oct. 11, Thomas was sorting cattle and confirmed he was short 23 cows, plus some calves. Cows today are worth about $1,200 and calves around $800, he says. On the morning of Oct. 17, he discovered in his pasture one cow had two arrows stuck in her stomach and another cow had a hole in its shoulder. Brand inspectors visited the ranch and photographed the affected animals. On Oct. 19, a brood mare was dead, with a hole in her neck, and a square-

1997 when Frank died, and seven people are now buried there. She claims to control the lease on the pasture where she wants to expand the camp. She has 17 siblings, including 11 living, each of whom owns a piece of the pasture, though she owns 27 acres. This past summer, she went to the Land Operations office at the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, and asked that any lease with the Thomas family be terminated. Allard claims she’s “never seen a lease with any Thomases.” Until November 2015, she says, the pasture had been leased to Archambault, who is married to one of Allard’s cousins. “We’ve never had cattle; all of a sudden, these (Thomas) cattle show up,” Allard says. “I don’t like cows.”

Fencing issues Paul Thomas, 77, Jack’s father, says he had leases in the Cannon Ball area, and formerly had leases on the Brave Bull family land, but gave them up. “We had so much trouble with fences, and cattle getting in the ‘taken area’ and going south, and cattle on the highways.” He says he got disgusted and turned the leases to his son, Jack. He still leases 80 acres. Jack and Allard offer markedly dif-

ferent descriptions of who is doing what with fences. “That camp just tore everything out; it’s a mess,” Jack says. “As they got bigger, the fences disappeared. They would cut all our fences, and chase cows out onto fields. It’s a big, big headache.” Other leased pastures adjoin the 360-acre pasture, but with all of the newcomers it was difficult to keep gates shut and animals in place, he says. “We were up there four or five times a day fixing fence, to keep the cattle in where they were supposed to (be). Every day, three-quarters of our day goes to checking fences in that area, making sure the cattle were all right.” Jack says by leasing the pasture, he is entitled to Corps land access to the river for water. Allard, on the other hand, says the Thomases are “forever cutting our fences, letting these cows all over the place,” down on Army Corps land. “I’m spending all of this money, fixing fences,” she says. “The cows are not where they’re supposed to be.” Allard says the Thomas family told her in June they’d delivered a $7,000 check to ensure he’d get the lease. But, she says tribal land officials told her in May or June they’d notified Jack that he was trespassing on the land, a fact tribal officials weren’t immediately available to confirm. In August, Allard received a pasture rent check from the BIA, but says she never cashed the check, which would account for 27 acres, or about $459 by his description. She couldn’t say whether any of her siblings had cashed their checks. Allard wants the Thomas cattle gone for good. She says they’ve obstructed traffic on the unpaved road through the pasture to the Sacred Stone Camp entrance. They trampled a one-acre family grave plot during a two-day period the fences were down after a recent burial. “That’s not even human,” she says. “People should not allow that.” She couldn’t say why cattle might avoid an unfenced plot, but says buffalo would not make the same mistake. In late August or early September, Jack says his family saw Allard on Facebook posted a general invitation to the public for the collection of free livestock. “She said, ‘Come one, come-all, help yourself to free cattle, free horses. We’ll help you round them up. Just come and get them off our land.’” Allard confirms she did create the post, and explains: “They’re in my way.”

CROP STOP

Wet, but wonderful in Willmar, Minn. Big yields in nearly all crops By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer WILLMAR, Minn. — Jason Fussy has seen good harvests before in the Willmar, Minn., area. But this one is probably the best. “The yields have been phenomenal,” says Fussy, a Willmar-based agronomic consultant with Centrol. “You could say nearly record-setting on everything.” Harvest of most crops was wrapped up, or Fussy nearly so, at the end of October, though some corn fields were too wet to combine. Unlike much of southern and central Minnesota, where a corn-soybean rotation dominates, farmers in the Willmar area grow many crops. Corn and soybeans are important, but wheat, dry beans, sugar beets, alfalfa and sweet corn and peas are raised, too. Dry beans fit in well with sugar beets, and alfalfa has become more common after several big dairies opened in the area, says Fussy.

EXPERIENCE

the MORTON ADVANTAGE

“When you go south and southwest, it’s mainly corn and soybeans,” Fussy says. “But we’re pretty diversified around here. When I talk to agronomists from around the country and tell them what we raise here, they go ‘wow.’” Rainfall is both friend and foe to farmers. This year, Willmar farmers have received more than usual: Fussy says his gauge measured a total of 34.7 inches this growing season, compared to the average of 25 to 27 inches. On balance, the rain helped crops, though some fields were hurt. Here’s Fussy’s quick rundown on harvest in the Willmar area: n Wheat — Good yields, though not quite as good as last year, with “phenomenal” protein. n Sweet corn and peas — Both had very good years, as far as yields, though some sweet corn didn’t get harvested because of heavy rains when it was ready to come off. n Edible beans — Average to above-average yields overall. Some fields suffered from excess rain and couldn’t be harvested. “I had (clients) who had to leave 20 (to) 25 percent in fields,” he says. “It molded and disintegrated into nothing. But where they didn’t have the ponded water, there were some tremendous yields.” n Corn — Yields of 200 to 230 bushels, up from an aver-

age of 210 to 220, with good test weights. The above-average yields “take away some of the sting” of poor corn prices. n Soybeans — “Tremendous yields,” averaging 60 to

65 bushels per acre, compared with an average of about 50 bushels per acre. Farmers who have a diverse rotation, rather than a basic corn-soybean rotation, did particularly well,

with soybean yields reaching as high as 80 bushels per acre. n Alfalfa — Again, “tremendous yields. All the rain helped with third and fourth cuttings. Some guys even took a fifth cutting,” he says. Because some fields have been exceptionally wet, fall tillage has been a challenge. More rain in November would further complicate fall work. “A lot of years, we want those rains in November,” Fussy says. “Not this year.”

COVER STORY

Some areas too wet, but great crop overall By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer ANETA, N.D. — Scott Huso grows many crops, and most of them yielded well this growing season. But soybeans were the star, especially when price is considered. “Soybeans, for us, is the one,” says the Aneta, N.D., farmer. “It’s our biggest crop (in planted acres). It’s the one that will tip the pendulum (toward profitability).” His soybeans yielded about 45 bushels per acre, compared with 40 bushels per acre in 2015, also a good year. Huso’s not alone. Better-than-average yields, combined with relatively good soybean prices, will allow many Upper Midwest soybean producers to make money, or at least break even, on the crop this year. Going into the crop year, soybeans were expected to finish slightly in the red with average yields. “It’s going to end being an OK year” for soybean producers overall, says Andy Swenson, North Dakota State University Extension Service farm management specialist. A few area soybean fields haven’t been harvested yet and final yield-peracre numbers aren’t available yet. But most soybean farmers report excellent yields, often 10 percent to as much as much 100 percent more than their five-year average yield. A 100 percent increase means farmers harvested two average crops this growing season. Overall yields “were just outstanding — the best that some (farmers) have ever had,” says David Iverson, an Astoria, S.D., soybean farmer. He’s familiar with soybean fields, for which a yield of 40 to 50 bushels per acre is average, that enjoyed yields of more than 60 bushels per acre. The outlook isn’t as bright for corn and wheat, the region’s two other major crops. Their prices are even poorer than those of soybeans, so they were projected to lose even money per acre than soybeans with average yields. For example, farmers in the southeast were projected by the NDSU Extension Service to lose $41 per acre with wheat, $38 per acre with corn and $28 per acre with soybeans. As is the case with soybeans, the region’s wheat and corn generally enjoyed above-average yields this crop season. The wheat harvest is finished, though much of the region’s corn is still in the field. Even with its good yields, wheat probably will remain a money-loser for most farmers, producers say.

For some farmers, big corn yields will offset poor corn prices and allow them to break even, or even finish slightly in the black, Swenson says. Potential drying costs, the uncertainty of how many corn bushels are still in fields and the price at which farmers end up selling their additional corn all complicate the question of whether farmers will turn a profit on corn Farmers in some parts of the Upper Midwest likely will make money on a few other crops, too, including lentils and sugar beets. But because soybeans are so prominent and widely grown, they’re the crop that will do the most to ease the sting of poor crop prices, ag officials say. Keep in mind that many soybean farmers still haven’t sold part of their 2016 crop yet. The price they receive for unsold beans will help determine whether they turn a profit, or break even, on the crop.

COVER STORY SOYBEANS From Page 12

Painful exceptions Credit the weather for good soybean yields. The crop got off to a good start after planting, enjoyed mostly favorable growing conditions in June and July and, perhaps most importantly, benefitted from plentiful August rains. Soybeans need adequate precipitation during the month to develop properly, and this August they received it. “We had nice, timely rains in August,” Huso says. But generalizing about crop yields across the sprawling Upper Midwest is risky. Yields vary, often substantially, from farm to farm and even field to field. That’s true in Nelson County, where Huso farms. He points to farmers north of him whose crops were damaged by heavy and repeated summer rains. “We feel very fortunate to have had good yields when not so far away they didn’t,” he says. The problem is worst in much of northeast North Dakota and northwest Minnesota, where some fields received double their average precipitation this growing season. “It’s been a real challenge,” says Theresia Gillie, a Hallock, Minn., farmer and president of the state Soybean Growers Association. Hallock is in northeast Minnesota, and wet conditions there have hampered her own soybean harvest. Given the excessive moisture, some soybean farmers will, at best, break even this crop season, she says. Many expenses, including farmland rental rates, haven’t fallen, despite sharply lower crop prices, Gillie says. “The rental rates will need to come down,” something many landowners have yet to recognize, she says.

Small seed, big impact Soybeans’ importance was seen in recent U.S. government statistics, which found the nation’s gross domestic product rose 2.9 percent in the year’s third quarter. GDP is the total value of the goods and services produced in a country in a year. Higher U.S. soybean exports — helped by poor crops in Argentina and Brazil, America’s top competitors for bean exports — accounted for nearly a third (0.9 percentage point) of that increase. The rise in exports boosted U.S. soybean prices this summer. Many farm-

ers took advantage, selling a portion of their crop before of their crop, Iverson says. What happens next to soybean prices is unclear. U.S. farmers are expected to harvest a record 4.27 billion bushels of the crop, thanks in large part to big yields in the Upper Midwest; that will work against prices. But potential production problems in South America and continued strong Chinese demand will help prices. Storing unsold soybeans — to capture potentially higher prices in the future — should be considered carefully by farmers with additional bushels from above-average yields, says Frayne Olson, NDSU Extension crop economist and marketing specialist. Huso says that, because he took advantage of pricing opportunities in early summer, he doesn’t have a lot of unsold beans now. Still, “I’m hanging on to as many as I can.”

One of many crops Huso, who grew up in the Aneta area, has a diverse agricultural background. He earned a master’s degree in ag

economics at North Dakota State University. His thesis was on genetically modified wheat, and he wanted to work for Monsanto, a leader in genetically modified seed. After finishing school, he had several job offers, but wasn’t ready to leave North Dakota. He went to work in Fargo, N.D., for AdFarm, a marketing and communications firm that focuses on agriculture. He later worked for AdFarm’s office in Calgary, Alberta. In 2008, he returned to Aneta to begin farming with Tim Brakke, a veteran who recruited Huso. “I’d had my eye on Scott since he was in the seventh grade,” Brakke says, recognizing even then that Huso, now 36, had the potential to become an excellent farmer. Today, Huso raises winter wheat, spring wheat, barley, canola, dry beans (mainly pintos), soybeans and corn. The winter wheat and canola suffered from a freeze this spring, but yielded fairly well. The barley yielded well, and is expected to make malting grade. The pintos suffered from too much rain and ended up with “pretty

disappointing yields.” Huso’s not finished yet with the corn, but says it’s running well, too, with yields as much as 30 percent above average. Though it’s too early to be sure, his corn might finish in the black, as well. But soybeans promise to be his best, most profitable crop. His poorest fields — the ones “that in a drought year, you’d have nothing there” — produced particularly good soybean crops. The drainage in these fields is a shortcoming most years, but a strength in wet 2016, says Huso. That’s not uncommon across the Upper Midwest this year. Many other soybean farmers also report excellent yields on light or sandy soil that usually runs short of moisture. Huso, like other Midwest farmers who enjoyed above-average soybean yields, say they appreciate nature’s cooperation at a time of poor crop prices. “It’s hard to imagine where we’d be (financially) with average yields,” Huso says. “So we’re very happy to have had the soybean yields we did.”

By Michelle Rook Special to Agweek ELK POINT, S.D. — Harvest progress has been lagging in South Dakota this fall, especially in the southeast. Above-normal precipitation and poor drying conditions have kept the combines out of the field, plus, farmers are harvesting another bumper crop which also slows the process. Elk Point, S.D., farmer Doug Hanson says the persistent rains and harvest delays have been a reminder of the late spring. With the excessive moisture, he planted his last field of beans June 12 and is now facing one of the latest soybean harvest seasons he can remember. “We’re just having a reflection of happened this spring with being 10 days to 14 days behind, and that’s kind of about where we’re at with this soybean crop,” Hanson says. Jim Petrick, who farms near Gayville, S.D., had the same frustrations this year in the flat river bottom land he farms near the Missouri River. He prefers to be done with soybean harvest by Nov. 1, and instead they were running a couple weeks behind. He says the biggest concern is the soybean crop, as it is more fragile than the corn. “We worry every time we get one of these moisture events that maybe we’re going to start having some pods start to pop open on these soybeans,” Petrick says. “We’re definitely going to start losing some yield just through field loss, as time goes on here.” Despite the struggles, Petrick has been pleasantly surprised with the soybean yields on his farm, which have been running slightly above average. “In this neck of the woods here soybean yields have probably run from 45 to as much as 70 bushels to the acre,” he says. “So, pretty solid.” Hanson is also pleased with how well his soybeans are performing with the late planting date and some of the low spots that sat in water. “I’d say right now we’re running in the mid- to low- 60s, on average, and that’s across all our fields, and we’ve

had some fields that were in the 70s too.” He says it wouldn’t beat last year’s record crop, but it comes close, and is still slightly above average. With the delayed soybean harvest, many farmers switched to corn in October and made some progress getting that crop combined. Hanson says his early corn yields are above what he expected and would only improve as he got into some of his better fields. “Even with some drowned out spots corn yields are at or above average,” he says. Petrick has generally seen the same trend on his farm in corn. “The field we’re in here, the yield monitor has gone anywhere from 0 to 260,” he says. “You know, we’ve got some circles here where the water just stood too long and we couldn’t get dried out in time to get it replanted.” In contrast, the harvest has been running ahead of normal in northeast South Dakota, which is just opposite of a normal year in the state. John Horter farms with his family near Andover, S.D., and says they were completely done with soybean harvest in his area in early October. Horter says he also faced weather challenges during the season, but it was the lack of moisture and hot weather, plus some hail. Despite that, he says most of his soybean yields ran above average. “Even with the dry June and July here, we had a lot of beans in the high 40s to mid-50s, so it was a real pleasant surprise.” And Horter says his corn yields were also running well above expectations, even the fields that were hit by hail and deemed a 40-percent loss. “We’ve had anywhere from 90 to 190 here on our farm and the high end of that is way above our average, so it’s every nice to see that,” he says. U.S. Department of Agriculture has projected corn and soybean production will be down in South Dakota from last year’s record for both crops. Farmers generally agree on the agency’s assessment on corn. But, with the big yields that have been reported in most of the state, they say the jury is still out on soybeans.

It’s a Tribine, not a combine New harvester hits market By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer NEWTON, Kan. — The combine got its name by combining three separate harvest functions — reaping, threshing and winnowing — in one machine. Now, a Newton, Kan.-based company has introduced the Tribine Harvester, which the company calls “the world’s largest threshing and cleaning system.” The new machine can help farmers “be more efficient and more productive,” says Greg Terjesen, vice president of marketing and sales. The Tribine’s most obvious difference is its 1,000-bushel grain tank: think of a conventional combine with an attached grain cart. Other differences from conventional combines include: reducing compaction through low-ground pressure tires; two engines, one to drive the hydraulic system and the other for propulsion; and a single joystick control instead of a steering wheel. Ben Dillon, company president, formed Tribune Harvester and is leader of the Tribine team. An inventor and entrepreneur who holds many worldwide patents for harvester designs, he came up with the basic concept 20 years ago after returning to his family farm in Indiana, Terjesen says. Dillon was frustrated that grain carts pulled by tractors caused greater soil compaction and decided there needed to be a solution. Eventually, he came up with the Tribine, Terjesen says. To help finance the project, which includes a new production facility in Newton, a town of about 20,000 near Wichita, Dillon auctioned off 716 acres of his Indiana farm. The land sold for $8.282 million, or $11,567 per acre, according to published reports that quoted the auction company handling the sale.

‘Timing couldn’t be better’ Some in agriculture might think

The Tribine Harvester is produced by a Kansas company. The combine got its name by combining three separate harvest functions — reaping, threshing and winnowing — in one machine.

I’m not going to put a product into an area where we can’t support it. Our key to success is having the best product out there, and providing the best level of support. – GREG TERJESEN, Tribine Harvester vice president of marketing and sales poor crop prices and farm profitability make this a difficult time to introduce the Tribine. “I beg to differ,” Terjesen says. “I think the timing couldn’t be better.” Tough times encourage farmers to become more efficient, and the Tribine will help them do so, he says. The ag downturn also has helped Tribine attract skilled engineers who

previously worked for other ag manufacturers in Kansas, he says. The company is offering Tribines for the 2017 crop season, but is focusing initially on Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas initially. That will allow the relatively small company, which has locations in Newton and Logansport, Ind., to work closely with customers there,

Terjesen says. Logansport is where Dillon farmed in Indiana. “I’m not going to put a product into an area where we can’t support it,” Terjesen says. “Our key to success is having the best product out there, and providing the best level of support.” But the company hopes to expand its sales territory for the 2018 crop season, he says. Terjesen declines to give the Tribine’s price tag, but says it’s comparable to the combined cost of a combine and grain cart. The Tribine has received excellent responses at farm shows and field demonstration, he says. “We’re definitely on the right track,” he says. To learn more, visit tribine.com.

The new Seaboard Triumph Foods hog facility in Sioux City, Iowa, will be ready for production in July 2017.

Iowa welcomes new hog facility Seaboard Triumph Foods planning production for new plant in July 2017 By Erin Wicker Special to Agweek SIOUX CITY, Iowa — Construction is well underway for a new pork processing plant, located in Sioux City, Iowa. Seaboard Triumph Foods is a joint venture between Seaboard Foods and Triumph Foods, on track to begin production in July 2017. Sioux City has always had an active agricultural industry base, and is located in the No. 1 state for raising hogs. “This plant will have a huge impact on the local economy,” says Marty Dougherty, city economic development director. “It is a source for

capital investments, jobs, tax revenue and spinoff benefits to other businesses. In addition, it will boost the overall agricultural economy in the region.” The total cost to construct the plant is $264 million, making it the largest economic project located in Sioux City. According to Mark Porter, COO, and Irving Jensen, director of communications, community relations, government affairs and purchasing, the city has been instrumental in the planning process. “The city has been absolutely wonderful to work with,” Porter says. “They’ve made the process as easy and straightforward as possible, and everything has gone very smooth.” When the Sioux City John Morrell plant closed in 2010, approximately 1,300 workers were laid off. At the time, they had been the largest employer in the area. The Seaboard Triumph Foods plant will employ 1,100 people upon opening, with the possibility to double if a second shift

is added in the future. “The city has been actively recruiting for a new company to come in since the John Morrell plant closed in 2010,” Jensen says. Located on 250 acres in the Bridgeport West industrial park, the site is near rail access and the interstate. The plant will process pork into a variety of fresh products, as dictated by demand. Seaboard Foods, one of the parent companies, will market the products in food service, retail and export industries. “Right now, we’re looking forward to a very aggressive recruiting and hiring process,” Porter says. “We are very excited to get rocking and rolling with the first shift as soon as the plant opens.” The site was selected because of the shovel-ready location, availability of hogs in the area, location of support industries and infrastructure. There was also support from city leaders and the Iowa Economic Development Authority.

The Iowa Economic Development Authority also played a huge role in bringing the plant to Sioux City. Jensen commends the IEDA for what they do and continue to do for the state and the small communities of Iowa. As part of the Sioux initiative, infrastructure was evaluated under a traffic study. They study was 80 percent covered by grant funds, with the other 20 percent coming from Seaboard Triumph Foods and Sioux City. Improvements based on this study are currently underway. The city also recently finished improvements to wastewater facilities. The community of Sioux City has been positive about the addition of the new plant. According to Jensen, the company strives to be a good corporate citizen. “They’ve already proven to be great community partners by supporting local events and charities,” Dougherty says.

Neighbors help harvest after death of Hettinger farmer By Kalsey Stults Forum News Service HETTINGER, N.D. — Terry Laufer was killed in a farming accident on Oct. 13 at 56 years old. Not only did he leave behind his wife Donna and two children, Jennifer and Devan, but he also left behind crops that still needed to be harvested. Local farmers took time away from their own farms and crops to lend a hand and harvest Terry’s last crop. “He was the best,” Scott Matthis said of his brother-in-law. “I know if it was any of the other neighbors, he would have been there. We’ll do the same for him.” Devan knows that to be true of his dad, too. “My dad was the kind of guy, if this would have happened to someone else he would have had all of his equipment here doing the same thing,” he said. “He’d have been the first guy. He wouldn’t have even called. He’d have just shown up at the field with everything, the whole farm, if needed.” Farming runs in the veins of the Laufer family with relatives being out on the 1,000 acres this week to lend

Scott Matthis sits on his combine as the corn field is completed during harvest in Hettinger, N.D. a hand. “My cousin died in a farm accident just a year and four months ago,” said Lisa Messmer, Terry’s sister. “When that happened, we were all there helping them. Their family has all been here helping every day.” Matthis said farmers in the community offer help like this as often as they need to. When a local farmer, Roger Wilson, had a farming accident at the begin-

ning of harvest, Matthis said there were 18 combines in his fields just a few days later. Messmer said she thinks that kindness and willingness is built into farmers. “I think it’s a heart of a farmer,” she said. “I don’t think it matters where you’re from as far as that goes. They stick together, if something happens to one, the others are just right there to help.” Messmer said when the local farmers were offered fuel for the tractors they didn’t take any because they wanted to help as much as they could and to do it all for free. The farmers were paid in food and drinks. Messmer said they had three meals a day for the farmers with most all of it being donated by local families and Wilbur-Ellis Company in Mott, N.D. Butler Cat in Dickinson, N.D., and West Plains Inc. in Hettinger, N.D., also donated equipment for the twoday harvesting. Devan said his family hasn’t been able to deal with the death of Terry yet.

“We wanted to get this season done with,” he said. “We were ready to get the year done and over with and maybe finally relax and think about everything that has happened in the past two weeks. We’ve been moving so fast I think a lot of it hasn’t hit us yet. Now we’ll have some time to slow down and actually think about all that’s happened.” Even though the family will mourn the death of Terry, the farm will still keep going on for as long as the family can see. Norman Laufer, Terry’s father, and Devan will continue the work of Laufer Farms, without Terry by their side. “I’m going to continue the farm,” Devan said. “It’s what he would have wanted. He’d come back and kill me if I didn’t try.” Chuck Miller, neighbor of Terry, said he came out to help because Terry was a lifelong friend and was even the best man in his wedding. Miller said he knew that it meant a lot to the family. “You could see that they really appreciate it,” he said. “They were happy to see us.”

Muddy ground got you down? MudRX might be what doctor ordered By Mikkel Pates Agweek Staff Writer DRAYTON, N.D. — If planting in muddy ground is a headache, MudRX just might be the cure. Ted Juhl of Drayton, N.D., and Robin Weisz of Hurdsfield, N.D., developed MudRX as an aftermarket piece to help clean mud and reduce tire wear on planters and air drill gauge wheels. They formed TR Solutions LLC, and in 2015 they hired a 3D printer to make prototypes of a plastic ring that fits inside a gauge wheel for a planter or an air drill. The inserts are made of “ultra high molecular weight plastic” and fits between the tire — which normally does the scraping from a disk — and the disk itself. “Being it’s high UHMW plastic, it does a much better job of scraping, and it has high wear characteristics that will outlast the tire by several times,” Weisz says. “You increase your mud scraping and eliminate wear on the tire, so it has a two-fold purpose.”

Sticky soil Juhl and Weisz are lifelong friends. Juhl’s older brother worked for Weisz’ father on the farm during the summer for many years. “I was 6 years old the first time we met,” Juhl says. Most equipment manufacturing engineers haven’t spent hours digging mud out of gauge wheels. Juhl and Weisz have. “I’ve been digging mud out for 37 years,” Juhl says. “There have been all kinds of solutions, but some help with the symptoms but don’t cure the problems.” The two attended the University of North Dakota in engineering before returning to their separate farm. “We have always bounced ideas off each other and critiqued some of our hare-brained schemes,” Weisz says. John Deere released its 7000 and 7100 MaxEmerge planters in 1974. The concept has been widely adopted throughout the industry. It allows seeds to be placed at a more precise depth with a pair of angled disk blades

Mikkel Pates/Agweek

Ted Juhl of Drayton, N.D., installs one of the MudRX inserts onto a planter wheel gauge. The system claims to increase scraping and wear area by 95 percent compared to a “stock” tire. to cut seed trenches. Juhl bought a new 7000 bin in 1979. “Most of our farm is along the Red River here — this heavy, sticky ground,” Juhl says. In those days, farmers used tillage to dry out soils and they planted slower, Weisz says. Today, farmers travel faster and use no-till equipment, which means stickier soil. Mainline manufacturers with scrapers, but the tires wear out in two or three years when farmers like Weisz and Juhl think they could last ten years.

3D printer’s role As the pair was developing the concept, they realized the complex shape was a challenge. “How do we make a prototype? How do we test it? How do we decide if our idea even has merit?” Weisz and Juhl found Fargo 3D Printing in Fargo, N.D., co-founded in 2012 by Jake Clark. “They understood agriculture and had some background. We were able to have them ‘print’ prototypes,” Weisz says. “We went through several versions before we even had one to try to test. If it wasn’t for that (3D printing), the cost would have been prohibitive. Molds are about $25,000 to make. There were other engineering costs, but every new version cost about $300 to print it with the 3D printer. “They were able to print one off,

and we could decide if the shape was right or wrong and once we reached that point were able to test the product and decide from then whether we wanted to go on and make a mold.” To manufacture the inserts, they went to PPD Group USA, which has a factory in Madison, S.D. The UHMW starts as a powder, and PPD Group uses a 235-ton press to heat and compress it into a liquid, filling the steel mold and cooling it at a certain rate and time, using a series of heating elements and cooling tubes. The UHMW starts as a powder, and is heated and compressed to become a liquid, PPD Group currently has two molds that can produce 70 of the pieces per day, or 400 a week. TR Solutions would ask PPD Group to make more molds if that became necessary. Customers are ordering dozens to about 500 at a time. The company prototypes were displayed at ag shows last winter, but the first time they had product to sell was during West Fargo’s Big Iron in September. They display models in bright farm equipment colors to attract attention, but the commercial models are all black.

Winter sightings This winter, they’ll be at the Northern Ag Expo, Nov. 29 to 30 in Fargo, and the South Dakota Ag Expo Jan. 18 and 19 in Sioux Falls. Customers can acquire the prod-

uct directly from the company website. The company is negotiating with dealer networks to carry them. But until demand requires it, PPD will ship some product direct from the factory. Farmers in other countries have shown interest in the pieces. Some foreign clients have talked about putting them on equipment in December 2016, but the 2017 season will be the first for most in the region to see them. The inserts cost roughly $2,000 to $5,000 for most drills. New planters and air drills can run $150,000 to $300,000. “We think it’s a very economical investment because it’s going to increase your ‘up time,’ and decrease labor time of having to replace tires and dig out mud,” Weisz says. “With the aggravation saved, we think it’s a good investment. “Wet conditions certainly will increase the interest in this product,” Weisz says. “And as we’ve seen the trend to no-till, which has accelerated in the Upper Midwest and elsewhere, that also means wetter soils in the spring. You can’t do tillage to dry them out. This product becomes very valuable in those situations.”

Simple is good Randy Klassen, owner of RDK Enterprises in Hillsboro, N.D., says he thinks the invention has potential. Klassen’s company makes precision planting parts and rebuilds planters. “Often we go out of adjustment on the gauge-wheel arms before the tires are thoroughly shot,” says Klassen, who looked at the product at Big Iron. Besides saving some money, he thinks the product can keep the openers clean. “It’s not complicated; that’s one reason I think it might work,” he says, speculating the idea might not have been developed by manufacturers because it is profitable to sell tires. “Sometimes it’s the simple things that help a lot,” Klassen says. Weisz says manufacturers might not be aware of the time it takes to dig mud out of gauge wheels. “That’s why a lot of what you see is farmer-driven, because they had a problem and came up with a fix,” he says.

NATIONAL NEWS

Organic egg industry pits factory farms against family farms By Lynne Curry Zester Daily If the news shocks you that the dozen organic eggs you just bought came from hens living in factory-like conditions, you are not alone. Nationwide, most consumers of organic eggs, dairy and meat believe they are paying for more humanely raised products. In one survey conducted by the Association for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in 2014, 68 percent of consumers believed that animals raised on organic farms have “access to outdoor pasture and fresh air,” and 67 percent believed that they have “significantly more space to move than on non-organic farms.” The truth of animal welfare in organic agriculture is not so clear-cut. And no food highlights the problem more than eggs.

Free-range or just cage-free? Pete & Gerry’s is a large-scale organic egg retailer in Monroe, N.H., where the hens are free-range. Most days — when temperatures are not extreme and there are no predators or disease-carrying migratory birds about — the flock moves at will in and out of the barns, dust-bathing and foraging in organic pasture.

Due south in Hubbardston, Mass., the “girls” at organically certified Country Hen spend their lives inside artificially lit, ventilated two-story hen houses with covered porches. They perch and feed on organic grain indoors; because of concerns about bird flu and other risks, they never step outside. Both brands, bearing the U.S. Department of Agriculture organic seal, are sold at a premium. But their eggs — and the living conditions for the hens who lay them — are not at all the same. The 2001 national organic law requires that all certified organic producers provide “year-round access” to the outdoors. But, Country Hen appealed to the USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service to allow its porches to qualify as “outdoors” and won its case in 2002. Ever since, the nation’s largest egg producers have entered the lucrative organic food market, which surged 11 percent in 2015 to $39.7 billion, the largest single-year gain. According to the USDA, at least 50 percent of the eggs currently sold as organic come from industrial-scale producers like Mississippi-based CalMaine, which houses up to 200,000

hens in a single, multi-story aviary with porches. A coalition of animal-welfare advocacy groups, including the Animal Welfare Institute, the ASPCA and Compassion in World Farming, have decried such companies, saying they flout the spirit of the National Organic Program. They argue that a product consumers widely believe to be freerange is merely cage-free. “It’s not uniform,” says Dena Jones, director of AWI’s farm-animal program. “We have a huge range: birds that don’t go outside and high-stocking density inside, and then you have pasture-raised. Two extremes and everything in between.”

Family farms vs. factory farms The majority of organic egg producers, including Pete & Gerry’s, Vital Farms and Egg Innovations, meet or even exceed the federal standards. The disparity puts these producers — some of which raise birds in ideal conditions, namely mobile chicken coops on pasture — at an economic disadvantage. “I think most organic customers would be surprised to know how some of the large-scale organic is being

produced right now,” says Pete & Gerry’s owner, Jesse Laflamme. LaFlamme’s parents nearly lost the family farm founded by his grandfather during the late-20th-century surge in shell-egg consolidation and automation. They converted it to certified organic in 1998, and LaFlamme returned to the farm in 2000, just when organics started taking off. In order to scale up Pete & Gerry’s production to meet demand, LaFlamme partnered with other family farms to raise eggs sold under Pete & Gerry’s label. The company now contracts with more than 120 farms. There’s good reason for egg producers to capitalize on consumer preferences for products that meet higher animal-welfare standards. In the most recent ASPCA survey, 67 percent of consumers said they would likely buy “eggs, dairy and meat products bearing a welfare-certification label with meaningful standards, even if it meant paying a higher price.” The question remains as to whether consumers will ever get what they believe they’re paying for.

Cattle summary Compared to last week, steers and heifers traded mostly 4.00 to 8.00 higher, with many instances 10.00 higher, especially on lightweight preconditioned calves. Several positive signs this week gave the entire cattle complex the support it’s been looking for over the last several week. There’s been quite a bit of optimism around the circuit, something that has been nonexistent for several weeks. Demand was much improved for all weights, but still best for the true yearlings with a health history that will finish out before summer. Trade was noted as active to very active at most major auctions barns with buyers more willing to chase some cattle to fill their orders and in some cases, the buyer’s desire to own them outweighed their desire for the cattle to be weaned and preconditioned. Unweaned and/or fleshy cattle are still falling victim to discounts compared to their weaned and worked counterparts but perhaps not as steeply discounted as the past several weeks. Last Friday’s Cattle on Feed report was friendly, showing fewer cattle on feed than expected. Simply put, this smaller placement number means that there are still a lot of cattle in the ountry that haven’t been marketed yet. Cow/calf producers have had little incentive to market their calves the past several weeks as cash values have steadily eroded since mid-August. With plentiful fall pastures and hay piles, it hasn’t been a real difficult decision for most cattlemen.

Wet conditions fall into North Dakota CRESTWOOD, Ky. — The struggles with excess rains during the harvest season in Canada has been well covered and documented. Rains have kept farmers from getting into fields and harvest the remaining crops. Some areas will not be harvested until the ground freezes or even (in some instances) until the spring. Improvements have occurred on the Prairies, but not to the point that all of the Canadian harvest is caught up to normal. The U.S. harvest has been progressing on schedule because of mostly warm and dry weather, but that changed as most of North Dakota was covered with rains, slowing harvest progress of the remaining crops.

Wheat Overall, the wheat markets have been quiet. While the soybean complex and corn had some big moves with the end of harvest and demand changes, wheat has been content to trade in a narrow range. Winter wheat planting in the U.S. is nearly complete. The U.S. Department of Agriculture showed 86 percent of the crop done compared to 88 percent for the five-year average. Crop conditions were lowered mod-

percent a year ago. There are a couple things to remember with the winter wheat crop, as the planting season wraps up. First, planted area is expected to be down a few million acres for the 2017 crop. Large global and domestic supplies have weighed on prices, and farmers’ bottom line is being impacted by low prices. This situation is leading to a cut in area, but just how much will not be known until USDA reports acreage in their January report. Second, the warm and mostly dry weather has raised some concerns for stress to the new crop. Overall, conditions are good, as seen in the USDA weekly report. But, if dry and warm conditions continue, look for some weather premium to be built into the market.

Canola The canola market has been following the soybean oil market modestly lower. In the month of October, canola prices climbed drastically. The support came partially from the strength in the broader oils markets (as soybean and palm were much higher), and also on some fundamental concerns about production in Canada. As previously mentioned, rains have been delaying harvest progress, and the quality of the remaining crop (20 percent of the canola crop has not yet been harvested) is in question. This week saw a drop in soybean oil prices, allowing for some canola weakness.

Peas and lentils Pea markets remained firm, with exports staying strong. Bulk peas loaded to ships in Canada from August to Oct. 23 set a record: clearances were 220,000 metric tons above a year ago at 1.33 million metric tons. This would suggest 27 percent of all peas available have been shipped

in the first three months of the crop year, compared to 31 percent a year ago. For lentils, the biggest news is the better-than-expected quality of the crop. Samples have been submitted to the Canadian Grains Commission for grading, and given the late-season rains, many were expecting a greater percentage of the crop to be in the lower grades. The CGC stated that with 556 samples, 28 percent were graded No. 1 Canada, 38 percent were No. 2 Canada, 24 percent were Extra 3 Canada, and 9 percent were No. 3 Canada.

Mustard The aforementioned CETA trade agreement with the EU impacts the mustard seed industry as well. Canadian mustard seed exports were 31 percent for the EU, so the trade deal not only provides the pulse industry with growth opportunity, but also mustard seed. But, this long-term opportunity for export expansion does not mean much presently. The market has been under pressure, as bulk movement of mustard seed remains slow. The CGC reported just 300 metric tons of export clearances in the last week, bringing the crop year total to 3,400 metric tons.

Elections bring uncertainty in crop markets Wheat

All the major news in the wheat market revolves around Egypt. Early last week, it was announced the General Organization for Export and Import Control will streamline the process for wheat imports into Egypt and allow grain to enter bonded warehouses instead of sitting on ships waiting for approval. No longer will exporters have to deal with three separate governmental agencies. There was news on Nov. 3 that Egypt was devaluing their currency. Egypt took a $12 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund and it appears this devaluation was a stipulation. They were buying as much as they could before this announcement. Export numbers have been decent since early July, but the Oct. 3 numbers were well below expectations. Wheat will be more expensive for the world’s top buyer to purchase. This, combined with a strengthening U.S. dollar, sent the market lower. The good news is it wasn’t a major selloff, as we are already at 10-year lows. The bad news is it will be more difficult for the market to break out of its narrow trading range to the high side. Both Russian and Ukrainian prices increased by $3 per metric ton for 12.5 percent milling grade wheat last week, making it the sixth week in a row of increased Russian wheat prices. Weekly export inspections were 12 million bushels for the week ending Oct. 27. This is above the 6.3 million bushels for the same week a year ago. Inspections for 2016 to ‘17 total 427 million bushels. Export sales totaled 8.6 million bushels, which was below the 12.1 million bushels needed in last week’s report to be on pace with U.S. Department of Agriculture’s demand projection. Weekly shipments of 12 million bushels were below the 18.2 million bushels needed in the report. For the week ending Nov. 3, December contracts for Minneapolis wheat were down 14.75 cents at $5.10, up 3 cents at $4.12 for Chicago wheat, and down 1.5 cents at $4.10 for Kansas City wheat.

Corn

Corn continues to show a sideways trend as we near the election, and the Nov. 9 USDA crop report. Demand should get increased in the report, but some analysts expect corn yields to also increase slightly. A few new export sales were announced this week, as U.S. corn is still some of the cheapest in the world. South America corn supplies are shorter-than-expected earlier this year. It is only the middle of their planting season, so they have months before new-crop corn floods their ports. Even though lower crude prices are hurting corn’s upside, ethanol production and use is holding up well. For the week ending Nov. 3, December corn was down 7 cents and March corn was down 6.25 cents. With large yields, poor prices and lack a storage, farmers are looking at alternatives to deliveries to their full local elevators. Some farmers are looking at leaving remaining corn

 standing in the field or piling corn on the ground until storage capabilities improve. Even though these options are not favorable, some farmers don’t have a choice and it shows how good yields are. The best cure for big grain piles is nice fall weather and a good demand for our exports, which hopefully can continue its hot start to the marketing year. FC Stone raised its forecast of the U.S. 2016 corn yield to 175.3 bushels per acre, from its October number of 175.2 bushels per acre. They also forecast U.S. corn production at 15.226 billion bushels, up from 15.163 billion last month. Corn weekly export inspections were 31.2 million bushels for the week ending Oct. 27. Inspections for 2016 to ’17 totaled 360 million bushels, up 74 percent from the previous year. Weekly export sales of corn showed a total of 58 million bushels for the 2016 to ’17 marketing year. This was above the 29 million bushels needed this week to be on pace with USDA’s October demand projection of 2.225 billion bushels. Ethanol production for the week ending Oct. 28 averaged 1.022 million barrels per day. This is up 3.13 percent, compared to last week and up 5.47 percent, compared to last year. Stocks as of Oct. 28 were 19.739 million barrels. This is down 0.90 percent, compared to last week and up 5.14 percent, compared to last year. Corn used in last week’s production is estimated at 107.31 million bushels. Corn use needs to average 100.959 million bushels per week to meet this crop year’s USDA estimate of 5.275 billion bushels. December corn support is at $3.46 and the major support at recent lows of $3.15. Resistance is $3.62, which was last seen in the middle of July, and then the 200-day moving average of $3.73

Soybeans

U.S. soybean crop was 87 percent harvested as of Oct. 30, just above the five-year average of 85 percent. In the Midwest, the unseasonably warm and mild fall continues to help wrap up this harvest. The warm and dry weather forecast remains in place for the next two weeks. For January soybeans, chart support is at the 200day at $9.85. Resistance is the recent high around the $10.30 mark. For the week ending Nov. 3, November soybeans were down 21.5 cents and March soybeans were down 22.5 cents. Brazilian weather has improved and is seeing good planting progress and early crop

development. The trade will continue to watch the longer-term forecast for signs of La Nina, which typically is associated with drier than normal weather. Ideal weather in Brazil has farmers 41 percent planted, ahead of the five-year average of 40 percent. Informa pegs U.S. yields at 52.4 for beans compared to their past forecasts for 51.6 and USDA October forecasts of 51.4 bushels per acre. Informa increased western Midwest yields compared to their last report while reducing eastern Midwest yield. FC Stone raised their soybean yield by 0.3 per bushel to 52.8, well above USDA’s October forecast of 51.4. Demand continues to prop up soybean prices, as we saw a second consecutive week of more than 100 million bushels of soybeans inspected for export. Demand is trying its best to counteract much of this fall’s record harvest. Soybean weekly export inspections were 105.4 million bushels for the week ending Oct. 27. This is above 94.1 million bushels for the same week a year ago. Inspections for 2016 to ’17 total 490 million bushels, up 11 percent from the previous year and above USDA’s projected 5 percent demand increase. Weekly export sales of soybeans totaled 94.6 million bushels with 92.4 for the 2016 to ’17 marketing year. This was well above the 17.4 million bushels needed this week to be on pace with USDA’s October demand projection of 2.025 billion bushels.

Canola

For the week ending Nov. 3, November Canola futures in Winnipeg were down $7.90 (Canadian) to $507.20 per metric ton (Canadian). The Canadian dollar traded $0.0001 lower at $0.7473. This brings the U.S. price to $17.19 per hundredweight. Cash bids in Velva, N.D., were $16.81 per hundredweight for November and December. Enderlin, N.D., bids were $17.59 for November and December Hallock, Minn., bids were $17.16 for November and $17.16 for December. Fargo, N.D., bids were $17.80 for November and $17.55 for December.

Barley

Cash feed barley bids in Minneapolis were at $2, while malting barley received no quote. The Berthold, N.D., bid is $1.80 and CHS Southwest bid is at $2.25 in New Salem, N.D.

Durum

Cash bids for milling quality durum are $6.25 in Berthold, N.D., and at $6.50 in Dickinson, N.D. About 24 percent of durum remains to be harvested in Saskatchewan as of Oct. 20, adding to quality concerns for the 2016 crop.

Sunflowers

Cash sunflower bids in Fargo, N.D., were at $15.10 for November and December and $15.30 for January. For the week ending Nov. 3, soybean oil traded down 29 cents at $35.10 on the December contract.

BjornQorn treats New York to Minn.-grown, solar-popped popcorn By Tom Cherveny Forum News Service NEW YORK — It’s estimated that one of every three rows of corn raised in western Minnesota is exported overseas. Some of those rows on Richard and Rachel Quenemoen’s farm in Lac qui Parle County are now devoted to raising popcorn. It is shipped for sale in New York City. Their son Bjorn Quenemoen and business partner Jamie O’Shea harness the power of the sun to pop the Lac qui Parle County-grown popcorn. They flavor it with a nutritional yeast, introduced to Quenemoen by his best friend’s parents while he was growing up on the family farm near Dawson, Minn. They call it BjornQorn. Sales have nearly doubled in each of the past three years since the entrepreneurs launched their venture. BjornQorn is available at stores in New York City and a route extending to the Hudson Valley in upstate New York, along with locations in Connecticut, New Jersey, North Carolina, California, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota (Surdyk’s in Minneapolis). Store owners tell Quenemoen that customers keep coming back for more, many saying they are addicted to it. “We are happy to feed their addictions,’’ says Quenomoen, who

lives in Brooklyn, N.Y. Quenomoen dreamed up the idea of starting a popcorn business on his long drives on Minnesota Highway 7 from the family farm to the airport in the Twin Cities, which brought him to Bard College in upstate New York. Quenomoen and O’Shea met while attending Bard. Quenomoen was known to his college friends for the flavorful popcorn he frequently popped. Quenomoen says popping a batch of popcorn on a Sunday evening was a family tradition when he grew up. It was not so much of a tradition among his new East Coast friends, but they loved his popcorn. He became known for his “Bjorn corn,’’ he says. O’Shea was a technology artist looking to make something tactile with his technology, Quenomoen says. Aware of his friend’s popcorn business aspirations, O’Shea suggested a joint venture. That venture is found today on a farm in upstate New York. There, O’Shea has developed low-cost, mirrored reflectors that focus sunlight on the kettles in which they pop BjornCorn every month of the year. The corn is popped in safflower oil, which lends something of a buttery flavor to the corn, Quenemoen says. The idea of flavoring the popcorn with nutritional yeast came originally from rural Dawson artists

Lucy and Gene Tokheim, parents of Quenemoen’s best friend, Luke. The inactive yeast naturally adds vitamins and protein, and it is fortified with B vitamins.

New flavor Quenomoen has put a few twists on the recipe since his college days. And by all accounts, it’s the flavor that is driving sales of the product in New York specialty stores. “(The flavor) is what has really pushed this forward,’’ he says. Solar power matters too. Quenomoen says news stories about the solar aspect of the business were often the talking point that made it possible for the business partners to get packages of their popcorn on the shelves of New York City businesses. Now the sales are growing organically, he says, with stores approaching them to carry it. The two Bard graduates, both age 36, are now able to devote themselves full time to this enterprise. The growth in sales has reached the point that their solar-thermal production operation is at capacity, Quenemoen says. It has brought them to a pivot point in the business. “We want the consistency of solar electric,’’ he says. With the drop in costs for solar panels, they are looking at using panels to produce electric heat for

cooking in place of the solar thermal system. All the same, they will continue to make the most of the low-cost, solar thermal technology system they use to cook up BjornQorn. They are working to develop a desalination system with the idea that the low-cost technology could help people in less developed areas of the world. There is also change coming on the Quenemoen farm, where the popcorn crop was just harvested. Quenemoen says his father is planning to retire after 43 years of full-time farming. Neighbor Bruce Strand will raise next year’s crop of BjornQorn on the Quenemoen farmland. Quenemoen says the business partners hope to see the business grow, and are working at developing markets in Los Angeles and San Francisco. BjornQorn is about as healthy a snack food as is possible, Quenemoen says, adding many of their repeat customers consider it a staple in their households. Of course, he loves both its flavor and healthy aspects. “Glad I don’t make potato chips,’’ he says, laughing. “I’d have to sample a lot. I can feel OK at the end of the day when it is popcorn.’’

Paris climate change deal forces cuts in deforestation By Megan Rowling Thomson Reuters Foundation BARCELONA — More companies have promised to cut back deforestation in their supply chains for agricultural commodities since the Paris climate change deal last December, but progress in implementing those pledges is mixed, research groups say. Under the New York Declaration on Forests, launched in September 2014, some 190 governments, companies, indigenous peoples’ organizations, green groups and think tanks are aiming to help the private sector eliminate deforestation from the production of agricultural commodities by 2020. The first report to track such corporate sustainability promises says 108 companies announced 212 new commitments since December 2015, boosting the total to 415 businesses. Levels vary between commodities: of around 630 companies assessed, 59 percent of those that source or produce palm oil had made commitments, and 53 percent in the wood and paper industry. But for soy, it was only 21 percent, and for cattle products as low as 12 percent. Those big four globally traded commodities are responsible for 40 percent of deforestation. Marco Albani, director of the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020, writes in the report that with just four years left to the end of 2020, “there is still a lot to be done.” “More companies need to commit, and many more need to move much faster to operationalize those commitments,” he says. Less than half of the assessed companies have time-bound action plans, robust monitoring systems remain rare, and only 45 percent of firms are reporting on compliance with deforestation policies, the report adds. Most of the companies with forest commitments are manufacturers and retailers, of which nearly 90 percent are headquartered in Europe, North America or Australia — where they are more likely to feel the heat from

green consumers. Producers, processors and traders of commodities, as well as companies based in developing countries, have been slower to act, the report notes. The exceptions are palm oil producers in Southeast Asia and meat-processing companies headquartered in Brazil. Charlotte Streck, director of Climate Focus, a think tank that led the report, says a large, unknown number of traders and small and medium-sized producers “are all very happy to deforest and then supply to China” and other emerging markets. “This is the part that cannot be captured by the supply chain commitments of the big companies — this needs to be coming from governments,” she says. Governments should enforce laws and regulations, and crack down on the corruption that helps fuel deforestation, she adds.

Biggest threat: beef Streck says the biggest threat to forests among agricultural commodities probably comes from beef, because the area logged for cattle ranching is nine times larger than to grow oil palm, yet has received far less attention. At the same time, demand for beef is rising in emerging economies, particularly in Asia. “We don’t have an industry standard,” she says, adding cattle change hands multiple times, making it hard to trace forest loss to specific animals. The annual net loss of natural forest area appears to be falling, thanks to significantly more regeneration, restoration and reforestation. But, excluding those new trees, the yearly rate of tropical forest clearance has risen compared with the first decade of this century, the report says. “What we really want is to stop (gross) natural forest loss because of biodiversity and other important reasons,” Streck says. Efforts to date are “not enough.”

Dectes stem borer rears its head in S.D. fields Recent survey details impact on sunflowers By Erin Wicker Special to Agweek BROOKINGS, S.D. — A recent, informal survey of sunflower fields in Hughes and Sully Counties in South Dakota revealed the presence of Dectes stem borer in roots or at the base of many of the sunflower stems. Ruth Beck, South Dakota State University Extension Agronomy field specialist, who conducted the informal survey, says although Dectes can be found in sunflower fields most years, in many cases, the stalk boring by Dectes in sunflowers has no measurable impact on seed yield or oil content. But, significant losses can occur when the insect girdles the sunflower plant and causes lodging. The survey she conducted this fall showed that in most infested sunflower fields, the borer had girdled the plants. Beck attributes this to the drier growing conditions of 2016. “Dectes larvae cannot physically girdle a radius greater than about half an inch,” she says. “Therefore, lodging will occur more frequently in situations of high plant density and drought conditions that lead to a small stalk diameter.”

“Information from Kansas suggests that wild sunflower is resistant to this pest,” she adds.

Hot, dry conditions that result in stalk desiccation will trigger the larvae to stop feeding and girdling will begin. “In situations where soil moisture remains high close to harvest, sunflower stalks can remain damp and the larvae will continue to feed until cool temperatures limit their feeding,” says Adam Varenhorst, assistant professor and SDSU Extension field crop entomologist. Under these conditions, Varenhorst says few larvae complete the girdling process and some do not girdle at all. Therefore, lodging does not become such a problem.

Greatest risk Typically, oilseed dryland sunflowers are more at risk because they are planted at higher populations than confection types. In many years, sunflowers can tolerate Dectes infestations without sustaining any losses. To avoid issues, Beck encourages sunflower growers to carefully control plant spacing to manage stalk radius and other cultural practices that preserve soil moisture. Beck also says Dectes can be a pest in soybeans and is hosted by a number of common weeds including ragweed and cocklebur.

During the summer, the Dectes stem borer, also referred to as the long horn stem borer, lives inside the sunflower stalk as a white larva. The larvae arise when adult stem borers lay eggs in the sunflower plant. The female Dectes stem borer chews a hole in the stalk just under the leaf petiole and places its eggs in the hollow cavity at the core of the petiole. Upon hatching, in early July, the legless larvae bore down the petiole and into the core of the main stalk. The larvae will only feed on the moist pith and will not consume dry material, “Therefore, stalk desiccation will signal the end of larval feeding,” says Patrick Wagner, SDSU Extension entomology field specialist. “At this time, the larvae (only one per stem) will terminate feeding and prepare for winter by cutting a disk-shaped incision about half an inch in radius from the center of the stalk. The larvae then plug the tunnel below the girdle with plant frass, or shavings, to seal itself in the chamber for the winter.” During Beck’s survey, “nearly 100 percent of the Dectes found in surveyed fields were sealed in a chamber at the base of the plant just under the soil surface,” she says of the evidence that girdling had occurred.

Bio-refinery wins zoning approvals from commission By Sam Easter Forum News Service GRAND FORKS, N.D. — The Grand Forks, N.D., Planning and Zoning Commission paved the way Nov. 2 for a bio-refinery — the kind that produces types of ethanol fuel seen right at the pump, developers said. The commission approved a series of measures that allow the building’s construction. Though final approval requires a City Council vote, the project received enthusiastic approval from City Council member Jeannie Mock, a commission member. “It does look like a really cool facility, and it does seem like a really nice pairing for that green pulp project that’s supposed to go in that same area,” she said, referring to the forthcoming nearby straw pulp facili-

ty expected to generate about 30 jobs. “It sounds pretty exciting, to get that kind of industrial development.” Though developers won’t say how much the project costs, Keshav Rajpal, a partner with Wisconsin-based BioMass Solutions, said the facility will host about 25 jobs and produce, on average, something around 10 million gallons of fuel each year. All with “feed stocks” — principally, sugar beet tailings, Rajpal said. “For us, we view this as a great entry point into the U.S. for this next-generation facility,” Rajpal said following the meeting. Moments earlier, he touted the location as a future “flagship” site, one close to a university and a healthy network of sugar beet production.

Developers are eyeing a location directly north of J.R. Simplot Co. at 3630 Gateway Drive. That would place it directly next to the facility Mock mentioned, which would process straw pulp for the production of various cardboard or paper products, like pizza boxes. The facility recently grabbed headlines when developers successfully applied for $84,000 in state funding to help with engineering on the project, and according to materials Rajpal presented at the meeting, construction could begin as soon as 2017, with plant operations beginning in 2018. Keith Lund, vice president of the Grand Forks Region Economic Development Corporation, was present

for the meeting as well, praising the project to the Herald shortly after the vote. “We’ve been working with them for a couple of years, and they’re a great company to work with and make a significant investment in our community,” he said. The items approved at the meeting include an annexation, a rezoning and a platting request, all of which need further approval by city leaders, and all of which must be approved before the City Council. “There’s a lot of value here in general with the agricultural economy, and the bio-based economy that’s here. We’re looking to have a longterm relationship with the community,” Rajpal said.

NWS: North Dakota poised for ‘classic winter’ By April Baumgarten Forum News Service GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Bundle up, North Dakota. It’s going to get cold this winter. That’s what the National Weather Service said in its winter outlook forecast. Meteorologists are anticipating a “classic winter” for the north Midwest, meaning North Dakota and northwest Minnesota likely will see near to below normal temperatures and near or above normal precipitation. “But for our part of the country, it also means some very cold and very snowy conditions at times ... and much colder and snowier than the past couple of years,” meteorologists from the NWS Grand Forks office said in a news release. North Dakota has been lucky the past two winters, which brought milder and drier weather patterns. Temperatures last year in North Dakota were 6 to 8 degrees above normal, and snowfall was “half or less of normal in both Fargo and Grand Forks areas” during the past two winters.

ly lower than Fargo by a couple of degrees. Some days in the winter can produce highs in the 40s and temperatures dropping into the negative 20s or lower is possible, especially in northern North Dakota. “This year, we’ll likely see a few more days with temps dropping (and/ or staying) well below zero,” the release stated. Snowfall measurements can vary significantly when it comes to the Red River Valley. Grand Forks averaged 45.6 inches of snow during the winter season over the past 30 years, with Fargo’s average being 49.6 inches, according to NOAA. “Climatological ‘averages’ vary from 40 to 50 inches in the northern Valley, to 50 to 60 inches in the southern Valley and points east,” the release stated. “Snowfall is extremely variable in any given winter season, as history shows. It’s not uncommon for part of the region to see repeated significant snows making for a heavy snowfall season, while other relatively nearby areas see much less.”

But for our part of the country, it also means some very cold and very snowy conditions at times ... and much colder and snowier than the past couple of years. NEWS RELEASE, National Weather Service-Grand Forks November is set to start out drier and warmer than normal in the Midwest, but that likely is to change as winter rolls in, according to NWS. La Nina, a weather pattern known for cooling water in the Equatorial Pacific, could influence winter conditions this year, though forecasters predicted La Nina will be weak and short-lived if it forms, according to a news release from the Climate Prediction Center, a branch of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. While the southern part of the U.S. is poised to see a drier, warmer winter than normal, the North, particularly

the northern Rockies and Michigan, could see more snow, forecasters predicted. As for North Dakota and parts of northern Minnesota, it could be a colder and snowier winter compared with other years. Average temperatures for Grand Forks over a 30-year period hang around highs of 19 degrees and lows of 4.9 degrees in December before dropping slightly to a high of 14.5 and a low of zero in January, according to NOAA. February tends to be warmer with an average high of 19.9 degrees and a low of 4.9. Those temperatures are slight-

Minn-Dak Farmers makes tough choice to keep beets in fields No-toll deals mean 12 percent of ‘corral’ beets won’t be harvested By Mikkel Pates Agweek Staff Writer WAHPETON, N.D. — Minn-Dak Farmers Cooperative on Oct. 27 told its shareholders there will be no toll agreement for its excess beets, so individual farmers will be done harvesting when they’ve reached 88 percent of their contracted acres. Minn-Dak’s total crop is 3.25 million tons, up from the 3.1-million-ton record crop in 2010. This year’s yield is about 32.5 tons, setting a record by 5.5 tons per acre, compared to the 27-ton per acre record in 2014. About 448,500 tons of beets will be left in the field. The company started advising growers how to destroy beets to save on cost and maximize conditions for crops in 2017 and beyond. The effective harvest is thereby complete, with the company estimating 87.6 percent of its acres were harvested as of Oct. 31, said Tom Knudsen, vice president of agriculture for the company. Knudsen indicated last week that shareholders on Oct. 23 had been authorized to cut their “corral” of potentially unharvested beets from 15 percent of their total acres — 17,250 acres — to 12 percent, cutting the unharvested beet totals to 13,800 acres in limbo. On Oct. 27, however, the company advised growers that because there was no deal with neighboring beet cooperatives to process excess MinnDak beets on a toll basis, 12 percent would be destroyed. “Make sure you contact your crop insurance people before you destroy anything,” Knudsen said.

Like an iceberg In a newsletter to growers, Mike Metzger, research agronomist at Minn-Dak, this week offered a set of recommendations for destroying

Nick Nelson/Agweek

Sugar beets sit on the surface of the soil in a field near Fisher, Minn. beets. For tillage, he recommended “none at all.” Tillage costs about $6 to $9 per acre and has disadvantages, he said. Don’t till to distribute beets across the field, he said, as they are most evenly distributed where they lie. “If your intention is to bury the beets to promote rapid degradation, consider that each beet (if left alone) is like an iceberg where over 90 percent of its mass is below the surface,” Metzger said. “You’ll never achieve as much soil-to-plant contact per individual root with any tillage implement.” Tillage can leave beets on the surface in places where they fail to deteriorate over winter, and it can leave beets vulnerable to flooding, which can plug ditches and culverts. Untouched beet tops form an insulation blanket for unharvested roots, Metzger said. He suggests running a defoliator or using a flail-shredder over unharvested beets to expose them to more freeze and thaw cycles and speeds degradation.

Beet topping helps release nitrogen, which can be available to subsequent crops as soon as early spring in 2017. A fall 2016 soil test will not be accurate, he emphasized. Each ton of beets with yellow tops, if left unharvested, is about five to six pounds per acre of soil nitrogen, according to research studies. Each ton of green-topped beets contributes 2 pounds per acre of soil nitrogen. So, if the 2016 yield is 30 tons per acre, the soil nitrogen from green-topped beets would account for about 60 pounds per acre of nitrogen. “It will be best to apply your nitrogen fertilizer as close to planting next spring to help reduce immobilization,” Metzger said.

Green vs. gold For phosphorus, use past soil test data for 2017 crops. Banded applications of phosphorus in the spring should be most effective, Metzger said. Follow normal potassium soil tests. Sulfur deficiencies could appear

in early 2017, but symptoms should be short-lived. He offered specific tips for follow-crops on this year’s destroyed beet acres: soybeans, increase seeding rates 10 to 12 percent; small grains, add 25 to 30 pounds per acre of nitrogen to maintain high yields; sunflower, add 30 to 40 pounds of nitrogen per acre to maximize yield. For corn follow crops, he advised selecting a “fallow syndrome/purple corn” tolerant hybrid and increase population by 10 percent. “The high amount of organic matter will definitely cause some of the available nitrogen to be immobilized,” Metzger said. He adds that phosphorus should be applied to a subsequent corn crop, based on soil tests. And remember that a high amount of phosphorus and nitrogen management “is critical to maximize revenue per acre,” he said. To achieve target goals, add 30 to 50 pounds of nitrogen to achieve targeted yields.
