Plant, harvest, repeat: Images from the field

Agweek News Team In the cycle of farm life, planting and harvesting are constants, repeated every year. But that doesn’t mean the tasks look the same on every farm.

Readers sent a variety of photos of fieldwork for Agweek’s end-of-2018 photo contest.

This week’s selection of photos show how different planting and harvesting can look depending on what you raise and where you are.

Throughout February, we’ll be sharing some of our favorite photos from our contest in the pages of Agweek and at agweek.com. If you missed last week’s livestock photos, you can still see them at https://agweek.com/business/agriculture/4565287-photo-contestpart-1-livestock-and-work-it-takes-raise-them. AG

Higher fertilizer prices in 2019 dictate increased management

By Michelle Rook AgweekTV Anchor

As farmers plan for the upcoming growing season, they are facing higher fertilizer prices verses 2018 and that is dictating increased management.

Retail fertilizer prices continue to move higher, with nitrogen fertilizer leading the way because of the increased cost of natural gas used to make those products. For the last week of January, anhydrous prices averaged $584 per ton verse $490 per ton for the same week in 2018, which is up 19 percent.

Urea was at $409 per ton, compared to $353 per ton last year, an increase of 16 percent.

Keith Mockler, DEKALB Asgrow district sales manager in southeast South Dakota, says those higher prices really hit crop budgets hard. “Fertilizer prices are up $20 to $40 an acre for a corn crop this year.”

As a result, he is working with farmers on ways to cut costs for the upcoming season. “We’re talking to a lot of guys this year about split applying the nitrogen,” Mockler says. “You know put some on at planting time and we’ll come back and we’ll top dress or side dress some. We can get by with a little less nitrogen that way.”

Mockler says he is hopeful nitrogen prices will drop somewhat going into spring, but regardless, split applications are a good way to maximize yield.

“It’s a little more work for them, which is fine,” he says. “But they’ll still be able to save $10 an acre that way.”

Dave Schwans, president of ‘N-Rich Plant Food, Inc. in Humboldt, S.D., says farmers that use starter fertilizer don’t have to use as much fertilizer later in the season. He says a starter application allows farmers to concentrate the fertilizer in a band near the seed at planting.

“You don’t have to spend as much money to get that big bang because you’re placing it in-furrow, it’s not broadcast over a wide area where the plant has to search for it in the reproductive stages of the growing season,” he says.

That precise placement also boosts crop production, Schwans says. “It’s right there when the plant germinates and if you can double the plant size in the first two weeks of growth, your ear rows and your yield are set in that very early stage of growth,” he says.

For corn, his company’s research is showing an 11-bushel per acre bump over no starter on corn, and increases on soybeans, small grains and lentils.

Schwans says starter prices have also stayed relatively steady compared to other fertilizer costs. “All of our raw material that we buy is tech grade or food grade. So, we’re not tied to the ag market like urea, potash and other products that fluctuate with the natural gas and oil market.”

Farmers are also using precision agriculture tools to save on fertilizer costs. Kevin Rozenboom is a precision ag specialist with Farmers Coop Society in Sioux Center, Iowa. He says they can help farmers lower costs and improve yield by soil testing and using the yield maps they’ve generated to apply the correct amount of fertilizer where the soil needs it through variable rate application.

“We start with a flat application on the starter and then we’ll finish out with a variable rate application,” he says.

Depending on the operation, the variable rate not only saves input cost, but can really bump yield. “Really it comes from being more efficient, but those ranges can be anywhere from a few bushels to 10 to 20-plus bushels,” he says.

Michelle Rook/AgweekTV Farmers talk about starter fertilizer as a way to cut cost at the recent farm shows.

Since Sioux County is abundant in livestock, the use of manure is another way to lower the cost of commercial fertilizer. “Manure in our part of the country is a main component and we need to look at how we can use that manure not only in the fall, but in the spring,” Rozenboom says.

He says that gives farmers the opportunity for a split application of fertilizer, where the producer comes in to side dress liquid nitrogen or anhydrous during the key reproductive time of the crop. AG

Courts name PSC trustee for Hanson grain cases

After notice, claimants have 45 days to file papers

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

BISMARCK, N.D. — The clock will soon start ticking for farmers and others wishing to file claims against grain trading companies operated by Hunter Hanson of Leeds, N.D. Courts in Ramsey County and in Burleigh County in late January appointed the North Dakota Public Service Commission as trustee in the warehouse license and roving grain licenses for Hanson.

The PSC soon will post notices in publications seeking farmers and other potential claimants to file proof of claims, including e-mails, scale tickets or other evidence of sales involving NoDak Grain and Midwest Grain Trading, both based in Devils Lake, N.D. Konrad Crockford, PSC director of compliance, said notices for Midwest Grain Trading, the roving buyer license, must be published

weekly for two consecutive weeks in all of the daily newspapers in the state. The notices for the warehouse license only must be published in Pierce and Ramsey counties, where the Tunbridge and Rohrville storage facilities are located, respectively.

People have 45 days after the publication of the second weekly notice to file a claim, Crockford said. Then the PSC will evaluate the claims and determine validity, and the commission will compile a report and recommendation to the court. The report to the court will includes the types of claims that would make claimants eligible for coverage under either the bond or the indemnity fund.

“The other thing we’ll begin the process of is to liquidate the grain assets at Rohrville and Tunbridge, the two grain facilities,” Crockford said. “We’ve got to collect grain samples so we understand the quality — whether it’s damaged or undamaged — get grades established and market the grain, get a couple of different bids to get the most

value for that grain.”

Cash sales can be paid from grain inventory and bonds. Credit sale contracts (price-later or delayed-price) may qualify for a state indemnity fund.

“At this time, we don’t know if they’d fall under the bond or the indemnity fund categories,” said Konrad Crockford, PSC director of compliance.

The bond for the warehouse license totals $315,000 for the facilities at Tunbridge and Rohrville. Hanson had bonds from two companies — $165,000 with Philadelphia Indemnity Insurance Co., Bala Cynwyd, Pa., and $150,000 with CorePoint Insurance Co., Wilmington, Del. Separately there is a bond for Midwest Grain Trading of $400,000 with State Farm Fire and Casualty Co., Bloomington, Ill. In a related matter, Hanson, 21, was set to appear in court at Stanley, N.D., in Mountrail County on Feb. 7, to face criminal charges for writing checks of insufficient funds.

In still another related matter, farmer Roger

Harstad of Palermo, N.D., has filed a civil suit against Hanson in Eddy County for issuing an $111,000 check with insufficient funds. AG

‘Technology by itself isn’t going to solve our problems with weeds’ Agweek Staff Writer

BISMARCK, N.D. — Tom Peters worked for 25 years in biotechnology and now is the Extension sugar beet agronomist and weed control specialist for North Dakota State University and the University of Minnesota. He can boil his weed control presentation down into two points.

“The first one is, technology by itself isn’t going to solve our problems with weeds,” he said. “The second thing is, weed management is a learning experience.”

Peters gave his talk, “Hogtied by Pigweed,” during Wheat U on Jan. 17 in Bismarck. Wheat U was sponsored by Agweek, High Plains Journal and BASF to give a specialized education in wheat management.

Pigweed, he said early in his presentation, was just an example. The same approaches can benefit any weed problem.

Peters said that when he was in college and early in his career, herbicides continued to improve and seemed like the answers to all the questions.

That has changed as weeds have built resistance to different products.

“The easiest answers, the quick solutions are gone. They’re not going to address prob-

lems,” Peters said.

Instead, fighting weeds needs a multifaceted approach, he said. Using different types of herbicides, using mechanical means like pulling by hand, mowing or tillage, and using more crops in a rotation all can help, he said.

The crop rotation component is important to change up conditions that influence weed survival, like crop planting dates, row spacing, fertilizing, tillage, pesticides and residue. Three to four crops would be better than the two-crop rotation — corn and soybeans — popular in parts of the region.

“The more crops you can grow on the farm the better,” Peters said. “We’re making it way too easy with only two crops.”

Peters explained how he and other Extension officials looked to other states, like Nebraska, as they became worried about Palmer amaranth.

He credits an educational campaign for the quick identification of the state’s first case in McIntosh County.

The weed now has been identified in five places in North Dakota, and the weed moved through different means in each case, including migratory birds, used out-of-state equipment, custom combining, railroad car cleanout and an alternative source of cattle feed, Peters said. AG

Implementing the new farm bill Government shutdown slows process

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Approving the new farm bill was an important, necessary step for U.S. agriculture. But the legislation still needs to be implemented — a task slowed and complicated by the federal government shutdown several ag leaders say.

Now, the U.S. Department of Agriculture will do what’s needed to put the farm bill into practice as quickly as possible, said Steve Censky, USDA deputy undersecretary.

“Congress has done its work (passing the farm bill). Now it’s our turn,” Censky said.

Censky spoke during a session on implementing the 2018 Farm Bill held Feb. 5 in Washington, D.C., by the Farm Foundation, which bills itself as “an agricultural policy institute cultivating dynamic non-partisan collaboration to meet society’s needs for food, fiber, feed and energy” The session was carried online, where it was available to journalists and others.

Also appearing at the Feb. 5 session: Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., chairman of the Senate Ag Committee; Barry Flinchbaugh, professor emeritus of agricultural economics at Kansas State University; Tara Smith, vice president of federal affairs with Michael Torrey Associates, where she works with clients on crop insurance, among other things; and Alan Bjerga, senior vice president of communications with the National Milk Producers Federation.

The farm bill, the centerpiece of federal food and agricultural policy, is updated about every five years. The old farm bill expired in 2018, and a new one was approved by Congress on Dec. 20 and signed into law by President Donald Trump on Dec. 21. But then the federal government shut down for 35 days, stopping USDA from working to implement the farm bill.

“We plan on catching up very quickly. We don’t plan on using the shutdown as an excuse

(for not implementing it),” Censky said. “We have a big job to do as we move forward (and) we’ll move quickly.”

USDA plans “listening sessions” to gather input on implementation, and will announce its schedule once it’s been determined, Censky said.

Fortunately, though the new farm bill contains many changes, the revisions aren’t considered “revolutionary” or fundamental, which helps to moderate the effects of the delay in implementation, the ag officials said.

“This was not the time for a revolutionary farm bill,” Roberts said. “We needed to provide certainty and predictability.”

“What do farmers need more than anything else? It’s certainty,” which this farm bill provides, Flinchbaugh said.

“Net farm income has been cut in half in the last five years. That’s an astounding statistic.

We’ve got problems in farm country,” Flinchbaugh said. “We’re in the midst of a vicious trade war that will cost agriculture billions.

History shows that no one wins a trade war.

Everybody loses.”

So, “Agriculture needs this farm bill. This is a farmer-friendly farm bill,” Flinchbaugh said.

“USDA has plenty of catching up to do (and) time is of the essence.”

Smith, addressing the crop insurance provisions in the new farm bill, described them as “improvements and tweaks to a program that farmers will tell you works for them.”

Bjerga said the dairy industry, hard-pressed by a downturn in revenue, will benefit from changes in the new farm program.

His industry has seen “more than marginal improvements” in the new legislation, and “dairy is excited about this farm bill,” he said.

The new farm bill replaces the former Margin Protection Program for Dairy with Dairy Margin Coverage. The DMC offers reduced premiums and a one-time signup bonus, among other things. AG

Talking farming is great, but turn it off sometimes

By Mark Huso

Special to Agweek

February is a busy month as we are steadily meeting with farmers and discussing our 2019 plans. The review of 2018 is also very important as we often move so fast some of the successes and failures become forgotten.

Some of these conversations become very intense and others can be quite casual. Visiting and talking farming often will carry with me wherever I go, and oftentimes that includes being with my wife and three kids. I can meet up with a current farmer I work with at a local basketball game or maybe catching up with an old college friend at a hotel in Fargo, N.D., who also brought his family there for the weekend and the conversation moves directly into farming.

I’ve been very good about being able to talk farming with most anyone, and at the same time unfortunately, been very good about dismissing my family when it comes to those conversations. Like many of you whenever in a social setting, your spouse may tap you on the arm and say, “Can we turn off the farm talk now?” Yes, we can.

For my family, agriculture is the primary part of our daily lives, but it isn’t the only thing in our lives. No matter where you live, there are other things going on than farming and sometimes we have to remind ourselves of that.

Some of us live in small rural communities, some may live 30 miles from a town, and others may be closer to an urban community. In most cases these communities are highly dependent on agriculture for sustainability. However, there are members of these communities that aren’t tied to farming and we have to be able to carry on a conversation with them also about how things are for their workplace and what things good or bad may be affecting them.

Recently I attended Agonomy on Ice. An event put on at Devils Lake, N.D., by fellow agronomist Jason Hanson. It was a great event of bringing industry, Extension, and farmers together to talk about farming in a very fun environment. Throughout the day, I heard conversations on barley, sunflowers, edible beans, soybeans, planning thoughts, equipment, seed companies, and many others. Then, we turned off the farming. There were discussions on high school basketball, ice fishing, vacation updates, and my favorite — what’s the best play to run in elementary basketball.

There was as much enjoyment in sharing farming stories as there was in discussing what’s happening outside of farming. I certainly encourage you to pay attention to next year as Jason’s Agronomy on Ice will become an annual event.

The winter season also allows us to spend more time to focus on community responsibilities. I mentioned last month how many of us serve on community groups such as school, ambulance, fire, hospital, city, church, and others. For those involved in farming, the community meetings that happen in May through August our focus can be thin. But when it comes to the fall and winter months, I know I’m better able to turn the farming off and work on these community groups more effectively.

So remember, it’s OK to be proud of who we are in agriculture our communities depend on us. But also, our communities and families need us to turn it off sometimes and give our attention other places. AG

Bitter cold won’t stop emerald ash borers

But it should reduce their numbers

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

It was tempting to hope that recent bitter cold in much of the Upper Midwest would end the growing threat of emerald ash borer. But though the extended cold wave may cut into emerald ash borer numbers, it won’t destroy the pest altogether, an expert says.

“This (cold weather) will reduce the population, maybe even a lot. But it won’t eliminate them,” said Joseph Zeleznik, North Dakota State University Extension forester.

A native of Asia, the insects hadn’t been found in North America until 2002. It’s believed they arrived here in ash wood in packing crates.

As of Feb. 1, the insects — sometimes known as EAB — have been found in 35 states, including Minnesota and South Dakota, and in Manitoba in Canada, according to the Emerald Ash Borer Information Network.

In 2017, they were found in Winnipeg, Manitoba, just 65 miles north of the Canadian border.

That was especially concerning in North Dakota, to the south, where green ash is common in forest, windbreaks, conservation planting and communities in the relatively treeless state.

Emerald ash borers attack all types of ash in North America, and already has killed hun-

dreds of millions of trees. The adult insect is dark metallic green, ½-inch long and ⅛-inch wide. The larvae (immature stage) do most of the damage, and are said to “strangle” trees by chewing through tissues that conduct nutrients.

Though extreme cold weather hurts the larvae, they’re insulated by trees’ outer bark, with larvae overwintering at the base of the trees below the snow line even better-insulated, making it highly unlikely that all the insects will be killed, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.

“We should not allow the cold to give us a false sense of security when it comes to actively managing Minnesota’s ash resource,”

according to Minnesota DNR. The threat from emerald ash borers illustrates the importance of diversifying trees species, limiting the damage that any one pest can do, Zeleznik said.

The Emerald Ash Borer Information Network, which draws on resources from multiple state universities and state and federal agencies, is a good general starting point to learn more about the insect and the threat it poses: www. emeraldashborer.info/ It’s too early to predict how young or recently planted trees will be affected by the extreme cold weather. In general, trees on the edge of their geographic range are most likely to be hurt, Zeleznik said. AG

MN LEGISLATIVE UPDATE

Broadband and value-added agriculture among Minn. Legislature priorities turers, and keep our farmers profitable through expanding markets. In our state, strong agriculture is strong Greater Minnesota development.

It is also important to note that agricultural policy is not limited to crops and livestock.

Consistently, I hear from farm families in my community struggling to afford everything from health insurance to child care and struggling with mental health.

During the 2017-18 legislative session, the Minnesota Senate prioritized these issues through lowering health insurance rates on Minnesota’s individual market by at least 25 percent, creating a child care access working group that has been meeting with stakeholders across our state to reduce unnecessary regulations on child care providers, and additional resources for our state’s farmer mental health program. While the farmer mental health appropriation was vetoed by our previous Gov. Mark Dayton, the Minnesota Senate

has renewed our commitment to addressing these issues as our first five bills unveiled this session target these policy areas.

New to the Agriculture Committee this session is oversight on rural broadband expansion. From health care to education, broadband access is essential to our way of life in the 21st century.

I regularly hear from rural residents and small business owners that a lack of broadband limits their ability to flourish in Greater Minnesota, much like a lack of electricity did 75 years ago.

I have long been a proponent of rural broadband expansion, authoring multiple bills that funded projects to expand broadband access.

In 2014, the Minnesota Legislature created the Border to Border Development Grant Program to provide state resources in building broadband infrastructure in unserved and underserved areas of our state. Every year since, the Legislature has passed funding for this program.

Unfortunately, the previous governor vetoed the Legislature’s appropriation for this program in 2018. This session, I have joined a bipartisan group of senators authoring legislation to invest $70 million in broadband expansion over the next two years.

Sen. Torrey Westrom The Minnesota Legislature is off to another fast start in 2019. This session, I am honored to have been re-appointed chairman of the Minnesota Senate Committee on Agriculture, Rural Development and Housing Finance. I have served as chairman of the committee since early 2017.

As someone who grew up on a farm and lived in Greater Minnesota my entire life, I know how important a strong agricultural economy is for our state and local communities. Whether it’s crops, livestock, food processing or other types of value-added agriculture, it is important that we keep our taxes low, find ways to streamline any regulations Sen.

THE SORTING PEN

Why do so few have livestock? Look outside for a clue

By Jenny Schlecht Agweek Staff Writer

Sometimes, when you think about what a small percentage of our population is involved in agriculture and the even smaller percentage involved in livestock, you might ask why that is.

I don’t ask why.

A couple weeks ago, when our temperature in central North Dakota hit somewhere around -35 F, I knew why people, over generations, had moved toward city living and indoor jobs. The night after that low temperature, it had warmed all the way up to -25. We lost power, off and on, over a six hour period. The linecrews (bless them) got the power back on, and it warmed back up in the house in short order. But without electricity, a bunch of water fountains for the cattle had frozen.

My husband and father-in-law got to spend the frigid day trying to thaw water and get heating elements going.

I know a family with a small herd of sheep. When those cold temperatures hit, a few of their ewes decided, hey, let’s all drop our lambs. They ended up with a whole slew of new babies, including two sets of triplets. Five of those six triplets survived … because the family brought them into their home to get them warm.

My dad’s cows calve from January to March. He knows it’s going to get cold, but in south central Montana, it doesn’t usually stay bitterly cold for long. This year, it’s staying bitterly cold. Dad is out, all hours of the day and night, trying to get pairs into the relative comforts of his small, insulated calving barn. The calf warmer runs almost constantly, sometimes with more than one calf inside.

Even after they’re dried off and warmed up, the new babies shiver when they go outside. Despite the care they’ve gotten, some of them still are getting frostbite on their ears.

We took a small number of Dad’s cows on shares this year, as the veterinarian thought they’d calve later than Dad’s intended end date for calving of April 1.

Calving after April 1 is actually perfect for us, so we took them. Unfortunately, the vet seems to have been a little off on his assessment of some of the cows. One of them calved out in the open, far earlier than we could have expected, and the calf died from the cold. Now, we’ve got a number of cows we’re watching closer, just in case. I stood out in the wind the other night, using the pickup headlights as a flashlight, to try to see if anything was going on in the cows. Within minutes, the exposed skin on my face was burning, my fingers tingled inside my gloves, and I counted myself fortunate that my day job consists largely of sitting at a computer.

So often, people in agriculture do things in conditions that would seem ridiculous to other people. That day when it was -35, most schools in our area cancelled classes for the day. Some stores closed. Many people didn’t have to go to work.

But the cows still had to get fed and bedded down. Calves and lambs still were born. The workload increases rather than decreases. Those who choose to have livestock know that they don’t get to stay inside when it gets cold and snowy or, for that matter, when it gets hot and sweaty.

Maybe the people who stick with this life are just tougher than others. Or just more stubborn. But it should come as no surprise that so few people choose a life with such uncomfortable demands and so many unpredictable variables. We probably should be surprised that so many keep doing it.

ND Ethanol’s best friend Satrang: Ethanol is good for environment, motorists, and rural communities

WEST FARGO, N.D. — Look up “friend to ethanol” in a reference book, and you’ll likely see Kent Satrang’s photo.

At 61, Satrang is the chief executive officer of Petro Serve USA, based in West Fargo, N.D.,the strongest promoter of ethanol fuel in the region. The company nears $200 million in sales with 33 convenience stores.

Petro Serve technically is a doing-business name of a member-owned cooperative, Farmers Union Oil Co. of Moorhead, Minn.

The co-op is an owner of CHS Inc., of Inver Grove Heights, Minn., which supplies some of their fuel.

“Petro Serve” became the Red River Valley’s largest supplier of home heating (propane and fuel oil) and commercial heating, including propane for farmers’ grain dryers, tractor fuel and overnight fueling for truckers during the construction season.

But 75 percent of Petro Serve’s business is convenience stores, and a lot of that has to do with ethanol.

Growing ethanol

Satrang came to the company in 1998. The business at that time did $10 million in sales with three stores. He and Clark Erickson, the chief operating officer, were instrumental in making the business double in sales every three years. “We did that five times,” Satrang says.

Today, the stores range from Bemidji, Minn., to Mandan, N.D., and from Grafton, N.D., to Wahpeton, N.D. “The big push – the reason to grow that much has been to put ethanol in the neighborhood gas pumps in each neighborhood,” Satrang says. Almost everybody uses E10 (10 percent ethanol) there are increasing markets for E15, E30 and E85.

“We’d like the customer to make a choice,”

Satrang says, rather than an oil company executive. “We say, ‘Choice at the blender pump puts change in everyone’s pocket.’”

Satrang grew up in Rolette, N.D., where his father was a Cenex truck driver. He graduated in business management from the University of North Dakota and went to work for Farmers Union oil companies –all affiliates of Cenex.

He started at age 22 in 1980, managing stores at Glen Ullin, N.D., and Hebron, N.D. He went on to be chief executive officer of a Cenex in Ellendale, N.D., and then in 1986 at Drayton, N.D. In 1992, he got into selling ethanol, promoting the ethanol product of the local Alchem Ltd., at Grafton, N.D., owned by ethanol production pioneer Harold Newman, of Jamestown, N.D. In those days, some gas stations were putting up signs boasting saying that their gasoline didn’t contain “gasahol,” the term of the day for ethanol blends. Satrang went in the opposite direction -- the farmer’s direction – putting up signs, saying, “We proudly sell ethanol grown by local farmers and produced in the Grafton ethanol plant,” he says.

In 1998, Satrang went to Moorhead. In 2000, Satrang cooperated with North Dakota corn groups, Gov. John Hoeven and others to declared a “tax holiday” for ethanol, allowing customers to buy E85 at 85 cents a gallon off the price.

He worked with corn promoters to promote the “bio-blender pump” kickoff, investing hundreds of thousands of dollars into new equipment, allowing choices for E30 and E85. “North Dakota had more bioblender pumps than any other state in America,” Satrang says, noting that Petro Serve had 90 of the 250 blender pumps that went in across the state.

Kent Satrang, chief executive officer at Petro Serve USA, says one of the keys to his company’s success is giving consumers what they want -- straight gasoline, to the common E10 blend, and up to E85. Photo taken Feb. 4, 2019, at Valley City, N.D.

Kent Satrang, chief executive officer at Petro Serve USA, based in West Fargo, N.D., has been a heavy promoter of ethanol fuel in his company’s 33 convenience stores.

State support

Hoeven and his successor, Gov. Jack Dalrymple, were recognized in the country for their pro-ethanol programs. Said Satrang: they were “100 percent for ethanol and 100 percent for oil.”

Petro Serve started out handling the Cenex brand only but during North Dakota’s oil boom, Cenex couldn’t supply enough fuel, so they established some of their stores under the Tesoro brand.

In 2006, the company rebranded as Petro Serve USA, becoming known for their slogan: “Helping America Fuel Better.”

Ethanol is good for motorists because it creates a competition for petroleum-based products.

Everybody is already using E10 because the 10 percent blend is an excellent oxygenate.

Increasing to E15 works for cars manufactured after 2001, and possibly sacrifices 1.5 to 2 percent gas mileage – about a wash, or saving a little bit.

“If you can break even (on fuel cost) using

ethanol you should still buy it because it’s good for corn farmers. If you don’t, you’re helping people overseas who don’t like us and our lifestyle.”

He says some of his biggest convenience store competitors are becoming more active on ethanol. Casey’s, based in Iowa, recently got a grant to put E15 blends in a number of stores.

Satrang says it’s clear how much ethanol production has done for rural towns in North Dakota. The towns of Hankinson, Casselton and Underwood are each buoyed by dozens of good-paying jobs. That’s boosted enrollment in schools, even apparent in sports championships.

More importantly, corn prices have strengthened, bringing dozens of daughters and sons back to the farms, “That’s really something to be proud of,”Satrang says.

SD LEGISLATIVE UPDATE

Serving SD to advance agriculture

By Rep. Kent Peterson I am a fifth-generation farmer, working alongside my dad and brother at our farm north of Salem, S.D. We have a cow/calf operation, a backgrounding feedlot and a row-crop operation where we raise corn, soybeans and alfalfa. My wife, Cindy, and I have two children: a son, Alex, 6, and a daughter, Maddie, 4. I’m lucky enough to get to take them to school every day that I am not in the Legislature, where I will be serving on the State Affairs and Ag and Natural Resources committees.

My two kids are the reason I serve. I know the decisions we make today will have a tremendous effect on what their tomorrows will look like, and I don’t take that lightly. I am also a strong advocate of all things ag. I’ve pushed for ag development during my time in the Legislature and was a key advocate for getting the Raven Precision Ag Center at South Dakota State University approved during last year’s session.

The South Dakota Legislative Session kicked off last month with Gov. Kristi Noem’s inaugural State of the State Address. Gov. Noem highlighted several initiatives and ideas she would like to see addressed this legislative session. She talked about increasing access to broadband in rural

areas, increasing pheasant habitat, finding ways to kickstart our economy, dealing with the meth epidemic, and continuing to advance the ag industry in South Dakota.

Gov. Noem also introduced a new initiative called Dakotaplex, which would help with the affordable housing shortage in towns with populations fewer than 5,000. If implemented, communities will be able to purchase duplex, triplex and quadplex units manufactured at the state prison at Springfield. The governor also talked about increasing the amount of career counseling available to our high school students and finding ways to increase the number of mentorships and apprenticeships available to students.

I look forward to tackling the issues that come before us this year. Over the next few months, I am providing monthly updates to Agweek and will try to highlight issues important to agriculture and the rural way of life that we all have come to love. AG Kent Peterson is in his third term representing District 19, which includes Bon Homme, Douglas, Hanson, Hutchinson, and McCook counties, in the South Dakota House of Representatives.

He farms and ranches in Salem, S.D.

COVER STORY A short primer:

Cell-based meat draws differing responses

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Across America, people both in and out of agriculture are hearing more about cell-based meat, aka “clean meat” and “fake meat,” among other terms. Whether cell-based meat is a good thing or a bad thing — whether it holds promise or peril — depends on who you ask.

To Vítor Espírito Santo, associate director of cellular agriculture for JUST, a San Francisco-based food company that expects to begin selling lab-grown chicken within a year, cell-based meat involves “changing the food system” to benefit consumers and the environment.

To Gerald Stokka, North Dakota State University Extension veterinarian and livestock stewardship specialist, cell-based meat unfairly denigrates beef cattle and threatens rural economies tied to traditionally raised beef.

To Alison Van Eenennaam, University of California-Davis Extension specialist in animal biotechnology and genomics, proponents of cell-based meat are “overhyping the environ-

mental benefits” and providing an incomplete, misleading case for it.

And to Ginger Hultin, a registered dietitian and Seattle-based spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the world’s largest organization of food and nutrition professionals, cell-based meat offers promise — but also requires more research and data.

Despite the disagreements, there’s consensus that cell-based meat still faces major challenges, particularly marketing and gearing up for large-scale production. Even proponents say cell-based meat won’t be widely available for at least five years.

Supporters say Advocates of cultured meat say it’s beneficial and even necessary. Their arguments typically involve some combination of human health, the global environment and animal welfare.

Kristopher Gasteratos, founder and president of the Cellular Agriculture Society, referred questions about cellular ag to his organization’s website, which identifies “three sets of

12 Monday, February 11, 2019 / AGWEEK

concern” involving “the world’s large supply of farmed animals.”

According to the web site, the three are: People: “People often get sick from animal products that are contaminated like meat and the growing population in the coming decades will require a higher demand for animal products than we can currently produce.”

Animals: “Animals live in crowded, unnatural conditions which can be harmful for them, and they need to be killed in large quantities to supply the world with animal products.”

World: “The world does not have enough environmental resources to produce for all of the farm animals; there isn’t enough food, water, and land to provide to them sustainably.”

‘Nothing fake about it’ JUST, the San Francisco-based food company that hopes to start selling cellEspírito Santo based meat within a year,

Cell-based meat is a complicated and controversial topic that doesn’t lend itself to simple or clear-cut conclusions, especially since the technology is still evolving. But these key points provide a useful overview: ► The process takes cells from animals, and grows the cells using liquid solutions in controlled conditions in a laboratory.

Advocates say a brewery is a better comparison than a lab. ► Worldwide meat consumption will increase 73 percent by 2050, according to a 2011 United Nations report. ► In 2013, a Dutch researcher debuted the first “clean meat” — hamburger made of cells of a cow’s shoulder that required two years, hundreds of petri dishes and $325,000 to make. ► The combination of rising meat consumption and the Dutch research has encouraged a number of start-up “clean meat” companies, with Bill Gates and Richard Branson among the investors.

And several major food companies, including Cargill and Tyson Foods, are involved, as well. ► Cell-based meat companies operate around the world, but California is a hotspot for them. ► The U.S. Department of Agriculture and Food and Drug Administration continue to hash out their respective roles in regulating cell-based meat. ► U.S. ag groups have stepped up their efforts, both at the state and national level, for package labeling that clearly distinguishes between cell-based meat and conventional meat. ► By all accounts, cell-based meat still faces major challenges, including consumer acceptance and ramping up to large-scale production that potentially could make cultured meat affordable to middle-class consumers. But proponents say they’re confident their product will be available on a limited scale and in small markets within the next few years, and on a large scale and globally after 2025.

was launched eight years ago. Its goal, then and now, is “changing the food system using more sustainable ingredients and approaches to provide nutritious and safe products to consumers, Santo said.

He referred to the product as “cultured meat,” adding that “lab-grown meat is not a term we’re particularly fond of.”

And, “I don’t agree at all with fake meat,” a term often used by critics of it, Santo said. “It really is animal protein. There’s definitely nothing fake about it. Just the process is different.”

Cultured meat and conventional meat come from the same source and have the same

COVER STORY “starting materials” and are provided the same nutrients, but in different form — in liquid solutions instead of the feed used for conventional meat, Santo said.

“I really believe consumers can feel confident about trying this. It’s a lot more similar (to conventional meat) than they might expect,” he said.

JUST is well aware that many consumers have questions about cultured meat, Santo said.

“We’ve been addressing marketing for two years. A lot of education needs to be done; it’s not something that happens overnight,” he said.

What’s in a name?

There’s an old saying, “Control the language, control the debate.” The struggle is clearly in play as Americans try to reach consensus of what to call meat raised from animal cells, rather than in the traditional method. Here are commonly used terms Clean meat: A term favored by some proponents of cell-based meat because it suggests health and environmental benefits — and detested by opponents because it also implies that conventional raised beef is somehow dirty or unclean.

Fake meat: A term favored by many opponents of cell-based meat for obvious reasons — and frowned on by proponents for the same reasons.

Lab-grown meat: An often-used term disliked by many supporters of the technology who worry that some consumers will look unfavorably on food produced in a lab.

Cultured meat: A widely used compromise term that indicates the meat was produced through cell cultures.

Cell-based meat: An increasingly common term that could find its way into general usage as a compromise.

Cellular agriculture: Obtaining ag products from animal cells rather than entire animals. Cell-based meat is one of of these ag products.

JUST photo Cell-grown chicken nuggets from JUST.

Some critics and skeptics of cultured meat suggest a great deal of energy might be required to produce it on a large scale. Santo, asked about that, said his company is familiar with those concerns and is investigating ways to deal with them, including more use of renewable energy.

JUST still faces “some challenges in technology, especially in scaling up (production),” he said.

But, “We know the direction we need to go.”

The company hopes to begin with limited sales of cultured chicken products to high-end restaurants in Asia; it’s waiting on regulatory approval to do so, Santo said.

Over time, JUST intends to scale up production, expand its product line and sell in America, too, he said.

It’s too early to talk about what consumers might pay for cell-based meat, Santo said.

Skeptic: Data needed Skeptics say much more data is needed to support the argument that cell-based meat on a large scale would provide major environmental benefits.

“Show me the data. What I don’t like at the moment is people who are supporting it (cellbased meat) just look at one side of the picture without looking at the trade-offs,” said Van Eenennaam, the University of California-Davis scientist “It (producing cell-based meat) does require inputs. It’s not a free lunch,” she said.

Because cell-based meat isn’t produced now on a large scale, nobody knows how energy would be required to do so, she said, noting that grass eaten by cattle on the range grows with the help of free solar energy.

And it’s a mistake to look at “cows only as hamburger.

Dairy cattle in particular are so productive. They produce milk, and then go to become Van Eenennaam hamburger. If you’re only looking at the hamburger component, you’re ignoring a lot,” she said.

Cows also provide what’s known as ecosystem services — controlling invasive weeds in pastures, for example — that benefit the people and the environment, Van Eenennaam said.

She thinks cell-based meat might eventually become “a niche market” in the United States but won’t ever be a major player in global meat production.

‘Upcyclers’ at work NDSU’s Stokka, a rancher himself who once served as a rural vet, said he’s frustrated and disappointed with what he sees as unfair attacks on cattle.

“I never thought I’d need to be defending the cow. The Stokka lowly cow is under assault.

She’s become the scourge of the earth. She’s polluting our environment so bad. On its face, it’s kind of a ridiculous statement. But that’s the issue we’re dealing with,” Stokka said.

A United Nations report found that livestock serve a beneficial role in the global environment, serving as an “upcycler,” Stokka said.

A key line from the report: “Livestock, especially ruminants like beef cattle, play a key role in a sustainable food system. They allow us to produce food on marginal lands that are unsuitable for cultivated agriculture. Cattle act as “upcyclers” in our food system — they upgrade plants into high quality protein for people.”

The report also found that 86 percent of what livestock eat globally — mostly grass on land unsuited for crops — is inedible for humans.

The cattle industry doesn’t always get the credit it should for becoming more efficient, producing more beef with the use of fewer inputs, Stokka said.

The importance of livestock’s economic benefit in rural communities shouldn’t be overlooked, either, Stokka said.

“What happens if the beef cow is removed from rural economic systems because we can grow this lab-cultured protein? I don’t know how that could be a good thing,” he said.

Nutritionists say Many Americans are increasingly concerned with the quality of the food they eat, so nutritionists — who influence food choices — potentially could play a major role in the extent to which cell-based meat is accepted by consumers.

Asked for its evaluation of cell-based meat, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, which has Hultin its headquarters in Chicago, said it hasn’t taken a stance. The organization also emailed its written position on vegetarian diets and referred questions to Hultin.

Hultin said cell-based meat is an important subject that holds both challenges and potential benefits, especially in helping to feed the world’s fast-growing population.

But more data and research is needed to fully assess cell-based meat — and consumers ultimately will decide whether to support it, Hultin said. AG

Erin Brown / Grand Vale Creative The status of the cow is closely intertwined with discussions about cell-based meat.

THE RIPPLE

Farmers embrace difficulty and brave the cold

By Marytina Lawrence Special to Agweek

Sometimes living in Minnesota is hard. I am a California girl that left the sunshine and warmth behind for true love. Love for a man, love for a lifestyle and love for a future undefined. Truth is, I would not trade the life I have lived for anything. But this last week, life became hard and unforgiving and it reminded me just how tough things can be.

On Wednesday, Jan. 30, Minnesota broke a few records. In fact, that day we registered at -35 degrees without wind chill. It is reported that it was colder than Antarctica, Mt. Everest and Siberia. Never in a million years would I have believed I could live in a place that is known for breaking such a record. And yet one week later we are still here, it is still cold (not that cold) and I am ready for spring.

This column is for all the farmers out there including mine, who braved that cold to care for the animals we are responsible for. Winter is always the most labor intensive time of the year on a cattle farm. Taking care of everyone is a full time job. My husband will spend an average of 4 to 6 hours per day just feeding and caring for cattle. He does it without complaint or hesitation and he is always working to make sure that everyone is comfortable and warm before he is.

This past week I was reminded of why I love him so much and how dedicated he truly is to his profession and his chosen way of life. And that is most important, for him this life of caring for cattle is a choice he has made.

He loves what he is doing, even the tough stuff. I was fortunate in that I was not out in it as much as he and my boys. But in watching them trudge outside with every piece of skin covered, I made preparation for their return with warm meals, dry clothes and the comfort of home, knowing that it would be needed. With the exception of a brief statement to the cold temperature I did not hear one complaint all week and it makes me appreciate him and what he is teaching our children.

But here is the truth. The cold was brutal, the worst I have ever experienced in living here. Our cars would not start, the ice was unbearable, and the heat even went out for a brief time. Despite all of that, we stuck together as a family, worked together to support each other and the burden of being in the cold and the thought of not doing what was needed never crossed anyone’s mind. And then there was a 55 degree shift in temperature. All are healthy, strong and looking for spring.

I spend a lot of time talking about how much we love what we are doing in agriculture. I mean what I say and times like this past week test out resolve and define how we really feel about what we do.

In life there are hard times for all. After this past week I encourage you to embrace the difficulty. It is temporary and can bring great reward.

ND LEGISLATIVE UPDATE

ND Legislature takes on trespassing, tax exemptions, grain buyers

By Sen. Terry Wanzek It’s hard to believe the 2019 legislative session is in full swing. This will be my 12th legislative session serving District 29 in the North Dakota Legislature.

I was first elected in 1992 at the age of 34.

My son Ryan, who today is one of my farming partners and serves on the North Dakota Corn Growers Association board, was in kindergarten at the time. Throughout the years, my purpose and motivation for serving has remained the same — I have a passion for North Dakota agriculture.

I love my job as a fourth generation American and North Dakota farmer and always look forward to going to work on the farm. While I strive to represent all my constituents, I feel my contribution at the table of North Dakota policy development is my years of practical experience as a North Dakota farmer!

More common sense and experienced farmer voices are needed when our state and local governments set policy.

I will touch on a couple of the agriculture

issues facing us this session, starting with Senate Bill 2360. This bill addresses the farm home exemption from property taxes and defines the qualifications of a farmer who would qualify for Sen. Wanzek this by adopting the IRS definition of a farmer. We have heard many frustrations with this issue from one jurisdiction to another.

The bill makes three significant qualification changes. First, it changes the required amount of income from farming to qualify for the exemption from 50 percent of net income to 66 percent of gross income. This prevents farmers who had a bad farm year from losing their farm home exemption because their net income from farming is less than 50 percent of total income. Second, it changes the look back from three years to two years. Finally, it deletes the off-farm income test. I believe this bill will provide some clarity to who qualifies

for a farm home exemption.

Another significant bill is Senate Bill 2315.

This bill would consider all private property as posted “no trespassing.” While sportsmen claim this will damage our hunting heritage, supporters say it is a private property rights bill arguing that hunting is a privilege, not a right.

There is a possible compromise in the works that would designate all land as posted with an exemption for hunting season. During hunting season, posting would remain as it is today with an option of posting land online once an appropriate program is designed.

This would put some teeth into trespassing laws when it comes to situations like the Dakota Access Pipeline protest.

Another important bill is Senate Bill 2346.

This bill addresses the licensing of grain buyers and public warehouses. Given the highly publicized grain buyer’s insolvency and the resulting damage to the farmers who sold to him, our system of licensing grain buyers is under question. This bill gives more

authority to the Public Service Commission to request pertinent financial information when licensing, renewing licenses and conducting investigations of a licensed buyer. This is in addition to the current bonding requirements.

We do not want to overreact because of one situation, but it does cause one to review our system of grain buyers licensing. The bill also considers broadening coverage of the indemnity fund to all claimants who are hurt in an insolvency. It will never make anyone whole but it will bring some relief.

There are so many more bills addressing agricultural issues in the Legislature, so I will provide more reports as we continue. If you have questions or thoughts on any bills you are following, let me know. My email address is tmwanzek@nd.gov.

Thanks and stay warm! AG Wanzek is a Republican representing District 29 in the North Dakota Senate and farms near Jamestown, N.D.

‘Dirt to Soil’ promotes regenerative ag

By Amanda Radke Special to Agweek

year; ► “Integrate Animals,” by managing livestock using regenerative strategies like adaptive multi-paddock grazing.

“Our soil was broken. Our farm was broken.

Our spirits were nearly broken. But when we transformed our soil, we transformed our lives and our future,” he said. “One of my goals in life is to help other farmers do the same.

Hopefully, ‘Dirt to Soil’ will help many more farmers, and even consumers, discover the hope in healthy soil.”

It is Brown’s mission to reshape the future of agriculture and the way farmers, consumers and policy makers think about the buzz word, “sustainability.”

“Everyone talks about sustainable,” said Brown. Why do we want to sustain a degraded resource? We need to be regenerative.”

Brown isn’t just talk and no action. The Brown family has received the Growing Green Award from the Natural Resources Defense Council, an Environmental Stewardship Award from the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, and the USA Zero-Till Farmer of

the Year Award.

Ultimately, Brown’s book highlights the benefits and potential of soil regeneration, which rely on a tiny soil microbe.

“Human existence is made possible by trillions of unseen microbial partners below the ground that enable carbon cycling, and improve plant and animal health, nutrition and productivity — all of which can support feeding a lot of people,” he said.

Brown’s message has been well-received from agricultural organizations to mainstream media. NPR called Brown, “Perhaps the most famous soil health pioneer.”

Today, Brown travels the country sharing his passion for regenerative agriculture and how he transitioned his family’s business from a conventional production model, which demands a larger and larger land base, to a smaller, more diversified one, which allows for multi-stacked enterprises on the same acres.

To learn more about Brown’s journey, check out his book, “Dirt to Soil,” available on Amazon for $15.49. AG

North Dakota rancher Gabe Brown has been on a mission — to restore the soil and bring back life to his family’s farm.

In his newly book, “Dirt to Soil,” Brown describes how he implemented regenerative agricultural practices to reinvigorate the land.

As he chronicles his journey of experimentation and innovation, he hopes to inspire other producers to work the land as nature intended.

“I wrote this book to tell the story of how my family and I changed from farming and ranching with an ‘industrial’ mindset to farming and ranching in nature’s image,” said the author, whose family operates a holistic, diversified 5,000-acre farm and ranch called, Brown’s Ranch, near Bismarck, N.D., with his wife Shelly and son, Paul.

Brown recently spoke at the South Dakota Farm Bureau’s Young Farmers and Ranchers 2019 Farm and Ranch Conference in Deadwood, S.D., where he discussed cover crops, grazing and soil health.

“The story of my farm is how I took a severely degraded, low-profit operation that had been managed using the industrial production model and regenerated it into a healthy, profitable one,” he said. “All of us — whether farmer, rancher or home gardener — have the ability to harness the awesome power of nature to produce nutrient-dense food. We can do this in a way that will both regenerate our resources and ensure that our children and grandchildren have the opportunity to enjoy good health.”

In his book, Brown describes the Five Principles of Soil Health, which include: ► “Limiting Disturbance” by protecting the soil structure through no-till techniques and avoiding all use of pesticides, insecticides and synthetic fertilizers; ► “Armor,” which means keeping the soil covered at all times; ► “Diversity,” which encourages producers to strive for a healthy mix of plant and animal species; ► “Living Roots,” maintaining living roots in the soil as long as possible throughout the

Plea hearing set for former Minnesota elevator manager accused of fraud Hennessey to appear in Minneapolis court Feb. 14

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

MINNEAPOLIS — Jerome “Jerry” Hennessey, the former general manager of the Ashby (Minn.)

Farmers Cooperative Elevator, is scheduled for a federal plea hearing on Valentine’s Day. Hennessey, 56, is accused of stealing $5 million from the elevator over at least 15 years to fund his big game hunting exploits, among other things.

He is scheduled to appear at 10 a.m. Feb. 14 before Chief Judge John Tunheim in Courtroom 15 in Minneapolis.

Hennessey turned himself in to federal authorities on Dec. 5, after having been formally charged on Dec. 4 with one count each of mail fraud and federal income tax evasion. He has been confined to the state since then.

Hennessey and his wife returned from a final hunt in Australia in late August. He missed a Sept.

1 refinancing deadline for the co-op. On Sept. 10, he failed to show up for a co-op board meeting and convinced a former co-op worker to drive him to Des Moines, Iowa.

According to the indictment, Hennessey used the U.S. Postal Service to mail a $34,166.67 check to a landowner from whom Hennessey was purchasing property on a contract for deed, according to the complaint. In 2013, says U.S. Attorney Erica H. MacDonald, Hennessey reported $97,329 in income, for which he would owe $16,189 in taxes, when instead his true income would have required “at least $270,000 in additional tax due.”

Federal authorities believe Hennessey used his position to write checks to himself and to third parties from 2003 to his suspension in September 2018. Checks were falsely represented for purchase of corn, soybeans and other operating expenses and supplies, but he wrote numerous checks exceeding $40,000 and one in 2009 totaling $135,000. He used them for renovating and “building two additions to his residence, renovating a hunting cabin, purchasing all-terrain vehicles, paying his personal credit cards and paying the property taxes on several pieces of land,” according to court documents.

Hennessey wrote numerous checks to pay for personal credit cards, including “numerous checks that exceeded $20,000.” He paid for “taxidermy, furniture, freight for the shipment back to Minnesota of

numerous animals he had killed during overseas trips, jewelry, expenses related to all-terrain vehicles, clothing, entertainment, personal travel, domestic and international hunting trips, and attachments for a skid steer loader.”

Prosecutors say he wrote more than 100 checks for personal expenses.

Soy Insights Sponsored Content

Protecting Stored Soybean Quality and Preserving Profits During the coldest part of the winter right now, it may not be necessary to check on stored soybeans for insect and mold issues, but as soon as temperatures start to warm up, those inspections should be done on a regular schedule. Maintaining quality is extremely important in protecting your yield, so when farmers are ready to sell, they can get the most for their soybeans.

DID YOU KNOW?

The allowable storage time for soybeans is at 13 percent moisture, and when held at 70 degrees gives the soybeans about 70 days before they start to degrade.

At 11 percent moisture and the same temperature, that jumps to 200 days, giving soybean growers a longer storage time with higher quality.

According to Ken Hellevang, an NDSU Extension Agricultural Engineer, “To manage that stored grain means that we have to have a degree of skill that we use as we monitor the temperature, moisture, looking for insects or mold. I recommend that we

do that every two weeks, except through the coldest part of the winter.”

With soybean prices and sales still low along with tariffs and historically wide basis levels, there is little end in sight for soybean producers who have stored last seasons crop.

Given the large amount of soybeans under storage and the continued need to keep them there, experts such as Hellevang caution that soybeans are tricky to store compared to other grains, especially as we approach spring and summer.

“Beans need to be below 11 percent moisture if they’re going to be stored for the summer, to prevent mold growth,” Hellevang says. “The allowable storage time at 13 percent moisture, at 70 degrees, is about 70 days before the beans start to degrade. At 11 percent moisture, that jumps to 200 days.

Hallevang also recommends cooling the grain to 20 to 40 degrees for winter storage.

Quality is affected by both temperature and moisture, so it’s important to monitor them

closely to ensure mold is not degrading their value even more.

Also, since the nature of soybeans is to continue soaking up moisture, farmers need to keep an eye on their storage facilities to reduce any snow melt or run-off water from impacting their location. Proper aeration in addition to reducing any added moisture as temperatures increase are necessary for soybeans to maintain a moisture level conducive to the longer storage requirements many farmers will need while waiting for market conditions to improve.

Additionally, due to the large number of ag producers who utilized grain bags for storing soybeans this fall, Hellevang suggests those beans be put into bins for spring and summer storage. This, along with keeping up with inspection of your crop and safeguarding your storage facilities from taking on moisture, will ensure further soybean profits aren’t lost.

International Crop Expo returning Set for Feb. 20-21 in Grand Forks, ND

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

GRAND FORKS, N.D. — The Upper Midwest has suffered through a long, tough winter. But the upcoming 2019 International Crop Expo — regarded by some as the unofficial end of the area’s general-farm-show winter season — is a reminder that spring is coming.

The annual event returns Feb. 20-21 to the Alerus Center in Grand Forks. Roughly 4,000 people and 170 exhibitors are expected to attend. It begins at 9 a.m. both days and ends at 5 p.m Feb. 20 and 4 p.m. Feb. 21. Admission and parking are free.

“We think it will be a pretty useful show. We have knowledgeable speakers with a lot of good information,” said Lionel Olson, farm operations manager for the Northwest Research and Outreach Center at the University of Minnesota-crookston. He has helped to manage the Crop Expo for many years.

Times are tough economically for ag in general, and the show will address that in two ways, Olson said.

The first is through the keynote presentation at 1 p.m. Feb. 20 by Jolene Brown on the value of humor in farming, especially in tough times.

Brown is a talented, versatile speaker, whose presentation will be well received, Olson said.

The Crop Expo also will tackle tough financial times with a session on “Finding Dollars in the Detail” from 1-2:15 p.m. Feb. 21. It will focus on management decisions that can help farmers increase their net income in current economic conditions.

The Crop Expo — created 18 years again by the combination of events hosted individually by small grains, potato and soybean groups after the Alerus Center opened — will again host educational sessions geared specifically to spuds, small grains and soybeans/dry beans.

As in the past, the potato sessions will feature several national industry leaders. On Feb. 20, Mark Klompien, CEO of United Potato Growers, will speak from 9-9:30 a.m., with Blair Richardson, president and CEO of Potatoes USA, speaking from 9:30-9:45 a.m. and John Keeling, executive vice president and CEO of the National Potato Council, giving his presentation from 10:30-10:55 a.m.

But many sessions are of general interest and beneficial to anyone involved in ag, Olson said.

For instance, North Dakota State University extension will lead a session on Palmer armanath, a dangerous weed, from 11-11:30 a.m.

Feb. 21.

“Palmer amaranth has been confirmed now in North Dakota, so it’s good to learn as much as we can about it,” Olson said.

New this year is a session, to be held in the south end of the exhibit arena, on UAV technology in the Red River Valley of eastern North Dakota and western North Dakota.

“This is different for us, holding a session in the arena. We’re looking forward to it,” Olson said.

Most attendees come from within 100 miles of Grand Forks in the northeast part of the state. That area includes Canada, which helps to explain the event’s full name.

What’s to love about rural life

By Annette Tait and Katy “Kate” Kassian Special to Agweek

We’re feeling the Valentine’s Day love with a slightly different twist – after all, what else would you expect from us? Most of the time we write about how to make rural life better. We don’t want to see our small towns and rural areas fade any farther. We want to see rural people and rural places thrive.

That’s because we love living rural. And here are a few of the reasons why.

Sunrises, sunsets and stars We get to see a lot of them, and they’re gorgeous. Rural sunrises and sunsets are huge – they stretch out across the horizon as far as the eye can see, with molten golds, oranges and shades of pink, red and violet spilling over pastures, fields and trees. Sunrises help us greet each new day, and sunsets give way to skies filled with a multitude of stars. You just don’t get those views in the big city.

People, places, and stories Sure, there are plenty of people in cities. But it’s just not the same. People in rural areas still know their neighbors, and even newcomers learn that the Larson place is actually where the Millers live, because the Larsons haven’t lived there in 30 years (but they used to, for three, four, five generations or so). If people called it the Miller place no one would know where to go, because it’s always been the Larson place. And no matter whose place it is, there are always stories to share about “that time when” something happened there, whether it was tragic, unique or hysterically funny.

Tradition Yes, we talk a lot about “we’ve always done it that way” needing to change. But there’s a big difference between that and tradition. Tradition is local culture, from the unsung acts of kindness to full-fledged celebrations.

Like the unsung, understood gathering of neighbors helping neighbors in times of need. It’s a finely tuned, quietly organized system that takes care of others. And then there are the opposite, the full-fledged celebrations of centennials, milestones and local lore that bring people home from all corners of the country. In the middle we cheer sports teams on their ways to major tournaments, help Legion Posts honor and remember our military members, and commemorate whatever other occasions just happen to float the local boat.

Community If you read us regularly, you know we look at rural people as one big, not always happy, family. In fact, sometimes we put the “D” in “dysfunctional.” But that’s okay, we come together when it matters. And that’s the point. It’s okay to bicker a little during the process when the end result is getting the job done.

And that takes a community that cares about what happens within it to keep youth activities going and support local volunteers and emergency services.

Initiative and a solid work ethic You’ve heard what they say about bubble gum and baling twine? Those old jokes had a start in good old-fashioned initiative. We can’t say we’ve ever fixed anything with bubble gum, but baling twine has figured into a whole lot of quick temporary fixes. Rural folks don’t stop what they’re doing when something breaks – they figure out how to get around it, using whatever’s at hand. And if something can’t be patched back into a workable state, they find a way to get something else done while that other things being fixed.

Those are just a few of the reasons we love living rural, and there are plenty more to choose from. What are your reasons for living rural? Or what calls you to rural life? AG

Beat the cold snap with warm garlic breadsticks

By Cristen Clark

Special to Agweek

The art of bread baking is a beautiful craft that can be passed down through generations. Sharing a slice of freshly baked bread with my grandmas is one of my fondest childhood memories and the reason that bread-and-butter is my ultimate comfort food to this day. There’s a complex connection to something or someone that I feel when I push a soft, elastic ball of dough around on my counter top. However, baking bread from scratch isn’t the only way to do it. Families have incredibly busy schedules and the last line item that fits on the overbooked-sports-laden planner at our house is “baking from scratch”. So, I get it. But do hear me out. If you were homebound with “bored” kids in the past couple of weeks from the cold snap like I was, baking from scratch and discovering heirloom recipes is a great activity to eliminate cabin fever.

My Grandma Celeste had a bread machine that I still own and use from time to time as it is great for mixing and proving dough. She always let it run the full cycle, allowing the unit to bake her bread as well. While she wasn’t involved in the process of bread baking as much, while the bread machine did the work she taught me to play all sorts of card games.

My Grandma Madeline baked most everything from scratch, and her bread was no exception. She would remove her ornate turquoise rings to knead the dough on her countertop, while I watched. The rhythmic motions would cause me to blink slowly and set my chin on top of my fist on her countertop to rest. We visited while she worked, then she shaped her round country loaf, ensuring there was proper surface tension on the dough, scored it with a razor blade in a checkerboard pattern and left it to rise. She’d wash her hands, put her rings back on and play “Shine on Harvest Moon” and other songs on her piano while I’d pluck the strings of her ukulele like I knew what I was doing. She always smiled and played on.

Either way, time spent with both grandmas was priceless and their breads were different yet equally delicious. Baking is something I love to share with my family and friends, heirloom recipe or not.

My daughter Halle is a picky eater. She only likes a few different things when we go out to eat. Her favorite meal is steak or pork chops, which she probably gets enough of at home, so minestrone soup is her next go-to.

There’s a chain restaurant that serves the tastiest breadsticks along with their soup and salad. I’ve mastered the easiest recipe for those addictive soft garlic breadsticks and want to share it with you. Make sure you have yeast that isn’t expired, that the water is warm and that you brush plenty of garlic butter on after baking. Enjoy! AG

Soft Garlic Breadsticks Makes 12 large breadsticks Ingredients: 1 1/4 cup warm water, not above 115 degrees (divided) 1 packet active dry or instant or bread machine yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons) 1 tablespoon sugar 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 ¼- 3 ½ cups all purpose flour 1 ½ teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons butter 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt Directions: To a large mixing bowl add 1/2 cup warm water, yeast and sugar.

Proof yeast for 5 minutes until foamy.

Add remaining water, oil, flour and salt.

Stir to combine then knead via stand mixer fitted with dough hook on low speed for 5-7 minutes, or by hand until smooth and elastic. Spray dough with nonstick spray, place dough ball into clean mixing bowl and set in a warm, draft free area to rise for 30 minutes or until dough doubles in bulk.

Once dough has doubled in bulk, punch down to degas and cut into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6” breadstick/rope shape. Arrange on half sheet pan, not touching. Spray with nonstick spray, cover with plastic wrap. Place in warm area until breadsticks double in size 30-40 minutes (or more if it is chilly).

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Once breadsticks have risen, remove plastic wrap and discard.

Bake breadsticks for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and internal temperature registers 190-200 degrees F. Melt butter, add garlic salt and stir together. Brush onto warm breadsticks immediately.

Serve warm.

THE PINKE POST

Corn farmers and vegans are both upset this week

By Katie Pinke

Agweek Publisher

What do corn farmers and vegans have in common this week? They were both upset with commercials during the Super Bowl.

Corn farmers are upset with Bud Light’s “no corn syrup” ads, insinuating corn syrup in beer is a bad thing. Vegans and PETA didn’t like Hyundai’s “Elevator” car shopping ad referencing a vegan dinner party with a “beet loaf.”

I laughed out loud at the Hyundai ad. I reacted as an agriculturalist to the Bud Light ad and knew instantly corn farmers were going to be ticked and react.

The most boring Super Bowl of my lifetime had me jumping on Twitter to see the agriculture reaction. Then, my Facebook feed lit up with farmer reaction. Clearly, I am not connected to many vegans because I had to read news articles to find their reactions.

To me, the bottom line is, if you want to be mad you can always find something to be mad about. There are often brands that portray conventional agriculture negatively and I can choose to not support them. The world is full of reasons to be angry. I choose to not spend my energy being too upset about a Super Bowl commercial.

If you are a corn farmer and you were mad at Bud Light because they said there’s no corn syrup in their beer, you get to be upset at how it was portrayed negatively. However, if you are a barley farmer contracting barley with Anheuser-Busch that makes Bud Light, you probably already know there is no corn syrup in their beer. Barley, rice, and hops are in Bud Light is what I thought.

We need to remember: this is marketing. This is advertising. Good advertising is risky.

I called my barley and corn farmer father. For full disclosure, my dad has contracted barley with Anheuser Busch to make Bud Light and other Budweiser beers for decades and is the only farmer I know who has a graduate degree in communications and previously owned an advertising agency. His perspective on agriculture and advertising is unique and one I greatly value.

My dad reminded me for the first time in as long we can remember that there were no Clydesdales in a Super Bowl commercial. Bud Light reframed the conversation. It might not be a conversation the mainstream agriculture community liked, but we are not their target audience. I think the millennials who love labels were the target audience. And Bud Light needs to compete with the craft beers the millennials are drinking.

Corn syrup in beer? Did anyone care before? I don’t think so. It makes zero difference in the taste of beer. Ask a brewer. Personally, I love corn syrup. It’s an affordable, safe sweetener and my favorite way to use it is in pecan pie. But if you want it in your beer, drink up.

Bud Light’s marketing worked. They’re being talked about in mainstream media, in this little column and getting a lot of social media attention. Hyundai’s commercial worked too because for the first time in, maybe ever, they are a car brand being discussed long after the Super Bowl. The vegan and PETA reaction directed more traffic to their ad. It still makes me laugh and, more than likely, they are more top of mind with potential car buyers.

The post-Super Bowl corn syrup reaction reminded me of a lesson I learned a long time ago: promote what you love rather than promote what you hate. If you want to create a social media fire, pour more gasoline on the fire by talking about boycotting Bud Light. If you want to put water on a social media fire, share about raising corn to produce ethanol.

Share why more of us should be filling our vehicles with E85 or why we should get the E15 mandate done.

I’m not a beer connoisseur but I know enough to know all beer uses agriculture products.

I love agriculture and all types of farmers.

Barley makes beer. Rice makes beer. Hops make beer. If corn syrup helps makes beer, that’s great too. To celebrate corn farmers, I put E15, E30 or E85 into my gas tank any time I can. It’s my way of promoting what I love, farmers and agriculture products. AG Pinke is the publisher and general manager of Agweek.

Going fast with a shank drill is typically a recipe for an uncontrollable, soil blow-out disaster. It’s a whole different story with the row unit control of the Amity Precision Shank Drill.

– A rippled coulter slices trash and fractures soil ahead of the opener to keep residue flowing.

– Two closing discs capture soil displaced by the opener, directing soil back over the seed rows, even at speeds of 8 mph or more.

– Wide packer tire properly levels the furrow for a smooth field finish.

It all adds up to faster, more controllable results than larger, slower drills.

Bring control to your field.

Upgrade to Amity.

Over the next 30 days through the month of February and into early March, temperatures will average below normal for this time of the year. Precipitation amounts are expected to average out near normal. The stormiest weather is expected to be from Florida north into the mid-Atlantic coast.

Trends for the Week Ahead Temperature

Regional Summary It will be cold but not as harsh across the region on Monday as low pressure moves out of the Rockies and into the Plains.

This low will spread plenty of clouds across the area along with a little snow during the afternoon and into the night.

Tuesday will be a cloudy and cold day as the area of low pressure moves away from the region. The cold weather will stick around through the middle and end of the week with generally dry weather.

International Crop Summary

Precipitation

Australia Much of southern and eastern Australia will be drier than normal this week, but can be near normal in Victoria.

Brazil Rainfall will be near to above normal from Minas Gerais and Bahia to Mato Grosso and near to below normal from RGS to SP and MGDS.

Canada Most of the Canadian Prairies will be drier and colder than normal this week; perhaps near-normal precipitation near the U.S. border.

European Union Mostly drier than normal in western Europe. Near- to abovenormal precipitation in southeast Europe.

Russia Precipitation near normal from western Ukraine to the Baltics and northwest Russia and below normal in eastern Ukraine and Volga Valley.

AG TO THE FUTURE

No field? No problem with reverse engineering plants

By Ryan Raguse Myriad Mobile

Scientists just unlocked a key, previously unknown, component to photosynthesis.

Billions of years ago, when plants had their heyday in evolution, the air was mostly carbon, and plants had no issues getting all the carbon they needed. It was the best time for plants. However, CO2 and O2 are very close molecularly, and the introduction of more O2 into the atmosphere meant that plants sometimes would confuse Raguse the two gasses. This confusion was problematic for the plant considering O2 is actually toxic for the plant. Over time, plants have built a way to deal with the toxicity of O2 and make use of it. While this adaptation is certainly helpful for the plant, it is troublesome for the amount of energy required by the plant to make the O2 conversion.

With the help of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, scientists have found a way to shortcut the pathways in the plant to make this O2 process much more efficient. This shortcut is relevant to us in ag as it promises to bring yields up to 40 percent higher on the crops scientists apply this technology to. Even more exciting, roughly 180 bushel per acre avg of corn would look more like 252 –– just by this one advancement.

Defining natural As this technology improves even further and our understanding of how photosynthesis takes place develops, there is serious potential for scientists to fully reverse engineer how a plant

actually uptakes the nutrients, photosynthesizes, and creates the desirable outcome –– be it corn, soy, or a vegetable.

One current way in which reverse engineering of plants is being done is the production of “natural flavors.” Natural flavors are not actually natural (i.e. grape natural flavor wasn’t derived from crushing a bunch of grapes, and it’s not likely to get natural orange flavors by squeezing oranges all day). Nope, scientists reverse engineer how oranges actually produce their flavors, then mass produce the same chemical. It’s the same exact genetic makeup as what an orange produces, but it never came from an orange.

In some cases, scientists and food manufactures are already skipping the steps of needing to grow a plant in the first place, such as this production of natural flavors. Also notable in these situations is the federal Food and Drug Administration approval of these products to be called “natural.”

Skip the plant Stepping even further in the scientific direction that “natural flavors” are being created, there could be a time in which agriculture would no longer need millions of acres of land or soil to grow crops.

For some crops, we may not even need to create the intermediate step of the crop itself.

As an example, if we are looking for sunflower oil and we reverse engineer everything enough, we would not even have to create the inputs into the sunflower seed. We’d just process nitrogen, other micronutrients, and photosynthesize straight to the oil in a factory-like setting.

In a specific ethanol production cycle, ethanol plants could just tack on a new plant that takes in water, fertilizer (which conveniently

can be made by converting thin stillage into methane at the ethanol plant already), micronutrients, and a photosynthesis machine to make cornmeal and pump right into the existing ethanol plant. No fields needed.

Overall, we are already skipping the plant in a few major ways. As we understand more of what is going on in this process, there could be a lot more of side-stepping of the plant to get to the end result. This means that as generations

go on, there could be less of a need to grow crops in fields (and they won’t even ask farmers permission).

It’s not outside the realm of possibility. AG Ryan Raguse is the co-founder and chairman of Myriad Mobile, the parent company to Bushel. Ryan grew up on a farm and returns for field work in the spring and fall. He can be reached at rraguse@myriadmobile.com.

NATIONAL FEEDER & STOCKER CATTLE SUMMARY – WEEK ENDING 02/08/2019 RECEIPTS: Auctions Direct Video/Internet Total This Week 259,700 56,100 22,300 338,100 Last Week 210,700 53,900 3,500 268,100 Last Year 224,300 57,700 26,500 308,500 *** NOTICE TO TRADE: Livestock, Poultry, and Grain Market News (LPGMN) is considering transitioning the publication date of this report from Friday to Monday and is seeking feedback from stakeholders. Currently, LPGMN utilizes sales data from Friday through Thursday to compile this report. By changing the publication to Monday, LPGMN is able to capture additional sales that occur on Friday afternoons and Saturdays, utilizing sales data from Sunday to Saturday, and provide a true weekly average price for the week. If you have any feedback on this proposal, please email stjoe.lpgmn@usda.gov by February 22, 2019. *** Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold uneven; from steady to 2.00 lower in the North Central area to steady to 4.00 higher in the Southeast and South Central areas. Some auctions in the Southern areas reported spots up to as much as 10.00 higher on what would be considered cattle suitable for grazing and demand for those kind is expected to be good in anticipation of grass. Most grazing areas are not showing any signs of drought stress currently. Another widespread area of colder weather along with precipitation hit the breadbasket of the country this week after last week’s Polar Vortex that left many shaking their head and knowing that one thing they cannot change is Mother Nature.

The CME Cattle Complex was higher on the week with the largest increases bookending this week. The front six Feeder Cattle contracts were 1.58 to 2.30 higher on the week while Live Cattle contracts were 1.35 to 1.92 higher for the same timeframe. For the first 4 days into the February Live Cattle contract, there have been 100 certificates tendered for delivery. With the negotiated cash fed cattle trading stuck around the 123.00-124.00 level for the past 6 weeks and delivery month February around 127.00 plus or minus, it has made for a hedger to consider delivering cattle on the contract with that 3.00 to 4.00 difference. Cash fed cattle trading has just started in NE as of this writing with dressed sales at 200.00, 2.00 higher than last week. Lives sales in the South have not been established yet, however a higher market is expected as feedlots are currently passing higher bids than the previous week. Cow Calf producers still have some optimism as some replacement quality heifers have fetched higher prices than their steer mates this week. On Wednesday at Green City Livestock Auction in Green City, MO a short half load of yearling replacement heifers weighing 729 lbs sold at 180.00 or just a tick over $1300.00 per head. Also on Wednesday at Bassett Livestock Auction Market in Bassett, NE a half load of 717 lb heifers sold at 156.50. For the week, the Choice cutout closed 1.09 higher at 215.35, while Select was 1.98 lower at 211.17. Cattle Slaughter under federal inspection estimated at 614K for the week, 21K higher than last week and 25K more than a year ago. Preliminary Yearly Federally Inspected Slaughter cattle numbers for 2018 showed a 2.6 percent increase over 2017 and a 7.2 percent larger harvest over the previous five year average. Steer slaughter posted a 0.8 percent decline while heifer slaughter was 6.4 percent larger year over year. Steers arrived at 4.1 percent increase and heifers an 11.3 percent increase over their previous five year averages. Total cow slaughter in 2018 was 7.0 percent over year ago and 10.4 percent over the previous five year average. Beef cow slaughter showed the way with an 8.6 percent larger number than a year ago and 14.1 percent larger than the previous five year average. Hog Slaughter for 2018 was 2.6 percent larger than the previous year. Auction volume this week included 54 percent weighing over 600 lbs and 41 percent heifers.

A lot to unpack from Friday’s USDA reports The winter wheat crop is not off to a great start this spring. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has started reporting weekly conditions for the national crop, and ratings keep dropping.

Just 30 percent of the crop is rated good to excellent and 35 percent is rated poor to very poor. All through the winter, the Plains were in need of some precipitation to build soil moisture reserves for the spring. That really did not ever happen in a significant way, so when the crop emerged from winter dormancy there just was not a good stand in place.

Weather forecasts really have not shown much hope for some needed rain until late in the week, but considerable drought conditions will require a good amount. We saw last year’s spring wheat crop go through some major drought issues before late-season rains brought some relief and boosted yields. But until rains come, look for some support to continue.

Wheat As previously mentioned, the wheat market

supply glut swelled even more, adding 3 million metric tons to the March estimate. This puts total production to a record 759.8 million metric tons. Spring wheat planting is getting started in the U.S., with 2 percent complete compared to 6 percent for the five-year average pace

Durum continues to be firm. A forecast late in the week showed hope for some rain in parts of Kansas and Oklahoma that have been excessively dry.

This pushed the market down for the day, but until rains are realized and substantial, do not expect a significant market direction change.

The USDA monthly World Agriculture Supply and Demand Estimates report was released this week. It is the last report before the new crop numbers are released but still held important information for the 2017-18 crop year. For the U.S., ending stocks increased by 30 million bushels from the March report. Feed and residual usage was reduced. Additionally, the world

A22 Monday, February 11, 2019 / AGWEEK

The durum market has stayed flat ahead of planting. The WASDE Report showed a 3 million bushel reduction in ending stocks for durum.

But the market seems generally unconcerned with the tighter stock levels of durum.

Canola Little has changed in the canola market.

Prices were firm early in the week before finding some pressure. The WASDE report did not make any major changes for the canola outlook for the 2017-18 crop year. For the bulls, the U.S. trade spat with China has raised hopes for additional canola exports. Strong usage is being maintained through the spring as well.

Planting is just around the corner (with Canadian planting intentions to be reported on April 27), and fields are generally too wet and cold for early planting. However, the bears will note that there are large supplies from last year’s crop and record planted area is expected for 2018.

Look for prices to continue to follow soybean oil for day-to-day direction but generally maintain its current range until planted area is known.

Barley The WASDE report showed a slight build in barley stocks from the previous report. There was a 5 million bushel reduction in imports, but a 10 million bushel drop in feed and residual demand more than offset lower supplies.

Stocks are still considerably tighter than a year ago, when stocks were over 100 million bushels.

The weekly conditions report from the USDA showed planting was off to a slower start than normal. Just 4 percent of the crop is planted compared to 8 percent a year ago and 12 percent for the five-year average. AG

Resistance levels held firm this week as the wheat market encountered a higher trending U.S. dollar. The U.S. dollar experienced seven sessions in a row of gains from the $95 to the $96.49 level.

Matif wheat futures closed at $202 per metric ton, which was the lowest level since mid-January.

Stats Canada reports all wheat stocks as of Dec. 31 at 23.233 million metric tons, which was slightly below market expectations of 23.4 million metric tons. This leaves stocks virtually unchanged from year-ago levels of 23.283 million metric tons. Durum stocks were slightly above expectations at 5.328 million metric tons. Canadian durum stocks for last year were 4.734 million metric tons. Barley and oats stocks were significantly lower than the average trade estimates.

SovEcon increased its 2019 wheat crop projections 2.7 million metric tons to 80 million metric tons. If realized, this would be 10 million metric tons higher than last year. Ukrainian ag officials reported that more than 95 percent of their winter seeded crops are in viable condition. There have been reports of trucking disruptions across southern Russia. This brings to light earlier reports of the government trying to subsidize internal rail rates.

Weekly wheat export inspections were 440,000 metric tons (16.2 million bushels), which was at the lower end of expectations. This weekly total is in line with the last four weeks, but it is becoming more of a reality that the U.S. Department of Agriculture will have to lower its U.S. export projections unless these weekly totals consistently stay above 22 million bushels.

Egypt tendered for an unspecified amount of wheat for late March shipment. U.S. soft red was the lowest bid at $235 per metric ton which was much lower than the second lowest bid from France at $244.86 per metric ton. After freight values, the U.S. offer was $1.02 lower. This provided the Chicago market more strength late week.

Average trade guesses for all winter wheat planted acreage are 32.12 million acres. This compares to 32.53 million acres last year.

Average guess for Dec. 1 U.S. ending stocks is 1.975 billion bushels.

U.S. ending wheat stocks for 2018-19 average guess is 989 million bushels compared to 974 millon bushels in December. The 2018/19 world ending wheat stocks average estimate is 268.09 million metric tons compared to 268.10 million metric tons in the December report.

For the week ending Feb. 7, March contracts for Minneapolis wheat were down 11 cents at $5.645, down 11 cents at $5.1325 for Chicago wheat, and down 12.5 cents at $4.9625 for Kansas City wheat.

import tariff that was placed on U.S. ethanol in September 2017. The tariff did not have a negative effect on the U.S. exports to Brazil last year, but keep in mind Brazil and Argentina had lower production totals due to drought conditions.

Weekly ethanol production was sharply lower at 967,000 barrels per day, marking the lowest weekly total since October 2016. This is an 8.5 percent decline from last year’s same week production. U.S. ethanol production is now averaging 3 percent less than last year over the past 12 weeks. Ethanol production would need to average 2.5 percent above last year each week to meet USDA’s estimate of 5.6 billion bushels of corn utilized for ethanol. Despite the 8.5 percent reduction, ethanol stocks were basically unchanged from week ago levels at 23.947 million barrels and reflect the fifth highest weekly stocks total on record.

Ethanol futures were 0.61 percent lower on this report.

Crude oil stocks rose to 447.21 million barrels, which was 940,000 less than expected. Gasoline stocks rose to 257.89 million barrels, which was 1.09 million less than expected. U.S. gasoline demand is averaging 8.961 million gallons per day, up 1.1 percent from last year.

The average trade estimates for the Feb. 8 crop report put U.S. corn yield at 177.9 bushels per acre versus the December yield of 178.9 bushels per acre. This would put final U.S. corn production at 14.532 billion bushels compared to the November report of 14.626 billion bushels. Average estimates call for slightly lower Brazil and Argentina corn production numbers than the USDA published in December. USDA has Brazil at 94.5 million metric tons versus 93.41 average guess. Argentina is at 42.5 million metric tons versus 43 average guess. If we come in at the averages, this would be 22 million metric tons higher for both Brazil (+11 million metric tons) and Argentina (+11 million metric tons) production from last year’s drought stressed crop.

U.S. ending stocks average guess for 2018-19 is 1.708 billion bushels versus 1.781 billion bushels December USDA estimate. World ending stocks average guess is 307.06 million metric tons versus 308.8 million metric tons in the December report.

Corn

Soybeans

The corn market remained in its narrow trading range this week as the market seemed content to await the Feb. 8 crop report, which will also feature delayed January monthly numbers. Current support for March is $3.715 with resistance at $3.82.

Weather forecasts in South America are leaning more favorable, which gave the market pressure in Feb. 7 trade. Six-to-10-day forecasts call for half-inch to 1½-inch rains across 80 percent of Brazilian growing regions, which is favorable for second crop corn plantings.

U.S. exports sales ending Dec. 27, were a nine-week low at 503,000 metric tons (19.8 million bushels) but keep in mind this was data for the week of Christmas. Commitments are running 19 percent ahead of last year’s pace. Mexico was the largest buyer at 181,000 metric tons.

Despite daily export sales to China, soybean futures saw losses this week and also saw its largest single day loss in more than three weeks Thursday. Pressure came from weak outside markets, a hit in crude futures and six straight days of gains in the U.S. dollar index. Uncertainty coming with the trade talks as we inch closer to the March 1 deadline is also keeping this market from breaking loose. The USDA announced multiple sales to China this past week to bring the three-day total to 4.1 million metric tons (150.6 million bushels). These sales were part of the 5 million metric tons pledge from China last week.

During the week of Feb. 11-15, top U.S. negotiators will be in China, negotiating a trade agreement with China that still seems a ways from getting finalized. President Donald Trump’s office said it is “highly unlikely” that Trump will meet with President Xi Jinping of China by

the March 1 deadline.

There wasn’t as much optimism for the soybean numbers as there was for winter wheat and corn numbers heading into the Feb. 8 USDA report. The biggest question heading into the report was what they were going to do with U.S. exports and ending stocks? Prices will have a hard time holding on if ending stocks number continue to stick around the 1 billion bushel mark.

Rain coverage forecasts are improving across north Brazil while Argentina dries up after a heavy dose of rain for the weekend of Feb. 8-9. Not sure how much this weather in northern Brazil will help their soybean crop much as almost 20 percent of Brazil’s soybeans have been harvested already. (Mato Grosso is almost 40 percent complete.) Yield reports out of Mato Grosso are rumored to be 10 percent less than last year, with Panara estimates a little worse than that.

The weekly South America crop round up has Brazil’s crop at 114 million metric tons. It has Argentina’s soybean crop at 55 million metric tons versus the USDA at 55.5 million metric tons. FC Stone is estimating Brazil’s soybean crop at 112.2 million metric tons, which is the smallest estimate so far that has been released. CONAB will give its estimates for this year’s crop on Feb. 12.

Current support for the March contract is $8.80. Resistance is $9.3125 and then the six-month high of $9.4175. March soybeans were down 4.5 cents for the week ending Feb. 7.

Canola For the week ending Feb. 8, March canola futures were up $1.20 cents at $483.60 Canadian per metric ton. The Canadian dollar was at 0.75405. This brings the U.S. price to $16.54 per hundredweight. ► Velva, N.D., $16.22 per hundredweight, March at $16.25. ► Enderlin, N.D., $16.83 per hundredweight, March at $16.88. ► Hallock, Minn., $16.52 per hundredweight, March at $16.52. ► Fargo, N.D., $17.05 per hundredweight, March at $17.20.

Stats Canada reported that as of Dec. 31, canola stocks were at record highs of 14.553 million metric tons but below expectations of 14.7 million metric tons. CHS Hallock went to a zero basis for front month contracts. When pricing canola, there are three primary things to evaluate: canola futures, Canadian Dollar values and basis levels.

Barley Cash feed barley bids in Minneapolis were at $2.60, while malting barley received no quote. Berthold, N.D., bid is $2.50 and CHS Southwest New Salem, N.D., bid is $2.55.

Stats Canada reported barley stocks as of Dec. 31 were 4.938 million metric tons and well below expectations of 5.6 million metric tons. This could positively affect barley prices.

Durum Cash bids for milling quality durum are $4.50 in Berthold and at $4.70 in Dickinson, N.D. Stats Canada reported Friday durum stocks as of Dec. 31 were 5.328 million metric tons and slightly above expectations of 5.2 million metric tons.

Sunflower Cash sunflower bids in Fargo were at $17. March bids were at $17.15.

For the week ending Feb. 8, soybean oil was up 89 cents for the week at $30.78 on the March contract. AG Monday, February 11, 2019 / AGWEEK A23
