The parallel of motherhood and letting go

By Marytina Lawrence Special to Agweek

Mother’s Day is one of my favorite days of the year. We always get together and enjoy each other and an enormous brunch somewhere that allows for all of us mom’s not to cook. We exchange flowers, cards and camaraderie and celebrate the family we have become. I truly look forward to the time.

This Mother’s Day, however, was slightly different for me as one of my children (my daughter) was unable to be with us for the first time ever. We still had a wonderful day but it was not the same without her.

I am learning as I get older and my children get older as well that the time together becomes less frequent and much more valued than ever before.

This made me pause for a moment when thinking about our cow mammas and the process they experience each and every year at this very time.

One of the primary traits that Hereford cattle are known for is their mothering ability. They are considered to be some of the best mothers there are.

I have watched them over the years during calving season. The care and discipline they exhibit in taking care of their calves and those in the herd is fascinating to watch. If a calf is born on pasture, the cow will actually hide the calf for at least three days until she deems it strong enough to join the herd. She will place it somewhere out of sight, direct it to stay put and then return regularly to feed and care for it. In fact, my farmer husband has actually tripped right over a calf that was hidden while out searching for it, and the mother would not let on as to where it was.

Once strong enough to be introduced to the herd, it will join the ranks of the other calves and the mother cows will take turns supervising the whole group to ensure they are safe. Additionally these tireless mothers will bathe their calves, protect them from any and all things they deem threatening, including humans, and feed them at any and all times of the day.

I appreciate the good mothers they are.

At this time of year we are weaning calves. Meaning we will take them off of their mothers, with the intent of providing a break for the cows to recuperate before giving birth to another calf later in the year, and prepare the calves for sale.

This process, while normal and permanent, does cause a bit of a stir for a couple of days as both parties involved get used to the new situation.

Cows call for calves and calves call for cows. It gets real noisy for a couple of days while everyone settles into the new situation. I am watching the calves now as I am writing this column comfortably resting in the weaning pen. They have been given their vaccination boosters, weighed and looked over to make sure they are healthy. We keep them close to the house and barn so that we can monitor any signs of stress or sickness. This group is doing well. They are beginning the move into adulthood. Slowly but surely, their mothers begin to move out further from the view of the weaning pen, accepting that it is time to let go.

It dawned on me this week that I am experiencing the very same thing right now as a mom.

My children are becoming adults and they are moving into new roles in their lives as well. I find the parallel interesting. Some of these calves will become mothers, some breeding bulls, while others will be sold and harvested to provide food for people all over the world. And then the cycle will start all over.

I am so very thankful for good mothers. Without them, life as we know it would cease to exist in every way. AG

SD cattleman pleads not guilty on bounced check charge

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

ASHLEY, N.D. — A South Dakota cattle feedlot operator embroiled in a financial meltdown has pleaded not guilty in a North Dakota criminal case related to his business operations.

Robert Lee “Bob” Blom of Corsica, S.D., on May 13 pleaded not guilty to a non-sufficient six-figure check payable to Gader Livestock LLC, a company operated by Paul D. and Terisa V. Gader of Lehr, N.D. McIntosh County State’s Attorney Mary Depuydt, contends that Blom (pronounced “Blum”) had written a $134,837 check to the Gaders on about Jan. 29 that bounced.

In South Dakota, Blom and his wife, Becky Blom, also face a lawsuit by their bank, First Dakota National Bank based at Yankton, S.D. That case was filed Feb. 8 in South Dakota’s Douglas County, where some 17 parties claim he owes for more than 30,000 cattle.

The Gaders are included on the list of u npaid bills.

Kim Radermacher, Blom’s attorney from LaMoure, N.D., requested a trial in front of a 12-person jury. LeFevre said the case would take about one day and likely will be handled by Judge Daniel D. Narum, of Ellendale. The judge’s staff said it is likely the case will be scheduled no sooner than mid-July.

Southeast Judicial District Judge Troy LeFevre said the Class C felony involving only the Gader transaction carries a maximum sentence of up to five years in prison and a fine of $10,000.

“Not guilty,” Blom responded firmly, when LeFevre asked how he would plead. LeFevre granted Radermacher’s request to allow Blom to travel to Montana where he has an employment opportunity. He was already able to travel freely within South Dakota and North Dakota without getting special court permission. Blom said he would travel to Montana for a couple of weeks, return for a few days and then go back to Montana, for some kind of seasonal work. LeFevre

said Blom would need to keep his cell phone available.

“Currently, since this is a restitution case, my client would like to try to be able to make some money. That’s his best means of employment at this stage of the proceedings,” she said. Blom filed a waiver of extradition.

The Gaders did not attend the Ashley hearing. According to court documents, they had sent cattle to Blom’s feedlots with brand identification, and said Blom had paid for them with a check that bounced.

The South Dakota suit documents indicated the entire transaction between Paul Gader and the feedlots totaled $269,674.26 and included 146 steers and 120 heifers. About half of the funds came from a “feeding partner” for Blom, who the Gaders declined to identify, citing advice from their attorney.

According to their website, Gaders buy cattle from sale barns in North Dakota, some in Minnesota and South Dakota.

They purchase cattle for local producers as well as customers in Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, Iowa and Minnesota.

A separate company called Gader Cattle Co. is owned by Brian and Kristy Gader, Paul’s parents, who live in rural Napoleon, N.D. That company is not listed with the North Dakota Secretary of State’s business registry, but is registered with the North Dakota Department of Agriculture. Brian Gader has four brands registered, and holds licenses and bonds.

Paul reportedly started in his own business as Gader Livestock LLC, at some earlier point. The North Dakota Secretary of State’s office says the business was first registered March 19, 2019. That company also was separately licensed and bonded by the North Dakota Agriculture Department as of last summer, but the agency said they could not say when it was first licensed. Paul Gader has three cattle brands registered under Paul Gader, two listed as Napoleon, N.D., and one listed at Lehr. Paul’s wife, Terisa, also has one brand registered at Lehr. AG

‘Too much negative news’ Different take on news coverage

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

I was sitting in the Agweek booth at an area farm show early this winter when a farmer came up to visit. I had never met him, but knew him by reputation as a good farmer and level-headed guy.

He said some nice things about my writing and Agweek in general.

Then he said, “I just wish you guys had more positive stories. There’s too much negative news now.”

I mentioned the cover stories I’d written recently, all positive. I mentioned that most of the stories in the current issue of Agweek were positive.

He nodded and said he realized that. His complaint was that, in his view, there are too many stories about poor crop prices, export concerns and extremely limited farm profitability. “We don’t read to read more about that; we already know it. What we really could use are stories that encourage us things will get better,” he said.

He hesitated a moment and then apologized for not being as articulate as he would have liked.

I told him I’d like to be more articulate, too. Then I thanked him and told him I’d keep that in mind (which, obviously, I have).

So, is he right? Should there be more positive news and less negative stories in Agweek?

I don’t have an easy answer. Agweek needs to contain a mix of stories — whether positive, negative or informational/neutral — that gives our readers a balanced, realistic view of modern agriculture. No doubt well-intentioned observers can differ on what that mix should be.

I am certain that our staff understands the importance of positive stories and strives successfully to include such stories in every issue.

Yes, we’re impartial journalists here at Agweek. But our farm ties run deep; we’d much rather cover farmers’ successes and victories than their struggles and losses.

Defining “negative” complicates matters. Over the past year, my Agweek colleague Mikkel Pates has tackled a number of splendid investigative reporting series that dig into financial shenanigans by some area ag businesses and ag businesspeople. The stories certainly aren’t “positive,” but they’re so important and relevant that they undeniably have a place in our magazine and TV show.

The horrible Midwest flooding is another example of negative news that needs to be covered.

As for the complaint about “excess” coverage of trade issues, farm profitability and crop prices: These issues are not static, they change and evolve regularly. Yes, we may have written about them many times in the past, but important new developments dictate new, additional coverage.

And the “negative” stories often take a decidedly practical approach, featuring useful advice from ag lenders and others on how to overcome the challenges.

My personal criteria for selecting Agweek articles is this: Is the subject interesting, useful or relevant — or some combination of the three — to people involved in area ag? Would it serve Agweek readers and viewers?

If the answers are yes, I’ll pursue the story.

Sometimes that criteria leads to negative stories.

The most negative Two final thoughts for the farmer at the farm show, as well as area farmers and ranchers in general: Good luck with planting. Good luck with calving and lambing.

And most of all: be careful, stay safe. Farm accidents, injuries and fatalities are the worst, most negative news possible, and they’re the stories that those of us in ag journalism never want to write. AG

WAHPETON, N.D. — The Wohlers family is scrambling to catch up with their planting in central Richland County in southeast North Dakota, but the weather in early May put them behind.

This 2019 spring will be remembered for the snow, the inch of rain, the frost coming out of the fields, Tim Wohlers said. Soil temperatures were staying in the mid-40s longer than farmers wanted, but Wohlers was sure some 70-degree temperatures and “nice winds,” would fix that in a hurry.

Tim, 48, farms with his son, Tyler, 21, who recently joined the farm after getting farm management training at North Dakota State College of Science in Wahpeton. The Wohlers raise wheat, beans and corn on about 3,000 acres. They got out of sugar beets after 2001. No livestock.

Tim started working on his father-in-law Kent Quamme’s farm in 1993. Tim and his wife

Jill started farming full-time in 2011.

On May 5, Tim was trying to burn out some piles of trees without getting his pickup stuck. The three tree lines in a 145-acre field had simply maxed-out their life expectancy. “There were more dead trees than live trees, more of a hassle,” he said, of the tree piles. “You were wrecking machinery because of it.

It was time to take them out.”

Getting the dying trees out would help navigate the fields with the global-positioning system software, without the trees and fallen branches.

Wohlers said he’d work some other, drier, tiled ground for now. He thought this field might be fit for planting in late May. Soil temperatures couldn’t stay 45 degrees for too long.

The economic outlook hasn’t been so sunny and warm either. Last year the Wohlers realized a “pretty fair,” crop but the prices were lackluster. This year is even more daunting.

THE PINKE POST

Choosing an internship with ‘Grandpa Fred’

By Katie Pinke

Agweek Publisher

“Buckle up, Mom,” Hunter said as I sat down in a buddy seat next to him in the fourwheel drive tractor in a field.

In my nearly 22 years of being his mom, this was the first experience for us. He was driving a tractor with me as his passenger.

I looked at him and said, “Really, I have to buckle up in your tractor?” He said, “Yes because if you fall out that door, you’re splat and we can’t have that happen.”

Starting with farm safety in the tractor cab, I knew this was going much less nerve-wracking than the first time I was his passenger when he had his new driver’s permit and was behind the wheel of my car.

Our son, Hunter, age 21, recently completed his third year at the University of North Dakota and is majoring in mechanical engineering. Last summer, he did an internship with an architectural and engineering firm. The experience and work helped direct him to change his major from civil to mechanical engineering. He also is a tight end on the UND football team. With his summer weight lifting and workouts, he stays close to UND. My husband Nathan and I assumed he would find another internship in Grand Forks for the summer to gain some mechanical engineering experience. But instead, he talked to my parents about working on their farm, 60 miles from Grand Forks. Hunter talked to Nathan and me about it, saying he felt like this was his one summer of his life where he knows he can learn farming alongside his grandpa.

If you’re connected to and from a family farm, you most likely understand my feeling of heart-exploding love and pride at that moment. We can’t make our kids love the farm or agriculture way of life. But when we expose our kids to agriculture and farming and then they choose it, it’s rewarding.

I drove out to a field where Hunter was driving a tractor, pulling a Salford vertical tillage implement, preparing the seedbed for barley.

This was the first time I had ever seen him as an adult in a farm field. He wasn’t visiting for the weekend. He’s a farmhand, farm worker, hired man, whatever your terminology is.

When he opened the tractor cab for me to climb in, his smile was the same smile he would flash at me when he was a little boy and I took him to the fields to ride along with “Grandpa Fred,” my dad.

I stopped and took a picture. His hat said ICON, where he worked in his internship last summer. I asked him as he drove, “How does working on the farm this spring and summer improve your engineering knowledge and future career possibilities?”

He said, “I want to design things in engineering that are practical and useful solutions.

Using the equipment and learning how it all works gives me hands-on knowledge for mechanical engineering.”

I sat and listened. Being a parent when the days are long and the years are short with young kids, we can’t look far enough ahead to see the moment I had in the tractor with our adult son. Sitting next to Hunter in the tractor gave me gratitude for the journey we’ve traveled together.

I left the field and he called me, asking for a ride to Northwood and to please bring him his workout clothes. At 7:30 p.m. after his 12 hour work day, I drove him to Northwood for an hour of weight lifting he had planned with a friend. The conversation and driving topped off an unexpected day of appreciation.

While we push our kids to chase after goals and dreams, letting them pause to farm alongside family for the spring and summer might be one of the most educational and influential experiences of Hunter’s college years.

‘A place to be’ Minneasota student embraces ag and state leadership role with FFA

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Britton Fuglseth’s agricultural career didn’t enjoy a promising beginning. When she took her first ag class in seventh grade at Fertile-Beltrami School in northwest Minnesota, her initial reaction was, “This is stupid. I don’t want to be here.”

But the 18-year-old high school senior now embraces both agriculture and FFA, so much so that she was selected to a Minnesota State FFA leadership post — and even plans to become a high school agricultural education instructor and FFA advisor herself.

Whitney Rupprecht, Fuglseth’s FFA advisor at Fertile-Beltrami, says, “I believe Britton was made for this moment. She has done amazing things and shows how a child who doesn’t quite fit in can make a huge impact when given the opportunity. I am proud to say that I am her FFA advisor and have had the pleasure to work with her over these last six years.”

Fuglseth, who doesn’t have a farm background, once played both basketball and volleyball competitively; a torn ACL ended that.

Looking for something to fill the void — “a place to be,” she says — she found agriculture and FFA increasingly interesting and appealing.

FFA serves young people interested in agriculture and leadership. Founded in 1928 as the Future Farmers of America, the organization changed its name to FFA in 1988 to reflect the growing diversity of the agricultural industry.

Today, FFA’s emphasis on leadership, personal growth and career success through ag education is boosting membership nationwide, with much of the growth coming in innercity chapters in places such as Chicago and New York City. FFA’s national membership now stands at about 665,000.

Minnesota FFA has about 11,000 members, a number that state officials say is growing, too.

Her time in FFA has “helped me grow so much as a person. And my leadership skills have grown so much,” Fuglseth says.

She’s fared well in national and state FFA contests, winning a number of awards. She’s also held a food science workshop, served 6 Monday, May 20, 2019 / AGWEEK

Britton Fuglseth, of Fertile-Beltrami (Minn.) FFA, is a member of the Minnesota FFA State Officer Team.

as Minnesota Region 1 FFA Reporter and led multiple workshops for younger members over the past year.

In February, Fuglseth applied for the 20192020 Minnesota FFA State Officer Team. She became a finalist and later traveled to the University of Minnesota to complete 10 rounds of interviews and to run for office.

This spring, she was selected 2019-2020 Minnesota FFA State Reporter. She’s the first FFA member from Fertile-Beltrami to hold a state leadership post.

Fuglseth’s selection was announced at the Minnesota State FFA Convention, which a number of Fertile-Beltrami FFA students attended.

“When her name was called, we screamed, cried, jumped, and threw confetti as she ran up on stage in front of 3,000 members,” Rupprecht says.

That reflects Fuglseth’s ability to inspire others, Rupprecht says.

Fuglseth will be involved in many things over the next year as a state officer. The list includes: ► Attending special training to learn more about public speaking, etiquette and other skills. ► Being a keynote speaker at several FFA and ag events. ► Hosting stage leadership conferences, facilitating workshops and preparing future chapter leaders. ► Attending more professional development training, taking part in industry tours and representing Minnesota FFA at ag events statewide.

“It’s going to be an exciting time. I’m looking forward to it,” Fuglseth says.

Future plans Fuglseth will attend the University of Minnesota Crookston next year, double majoring in ag education and ag communications.

Her goal is to become a high school ag education instructor and FFA advisor in northwest Minnesota, ideally in a school district that doesn’t yet have an FFA program, allowing her the opportunity to establish one.

Planting to Processing Sponsored Content

Pre-emergent herbicide benefits and scouting’s big comeback Planting season is upon us, but the weather has caused delays for many farmers that can have consequences all season long.

The wet fall and delayed spring for many farmers means extra effort for controlling weed growth using pre-emergent herbicide and scouting, which relieves worry all season long.

Even though there’s a short window of opportunity to use pre-emergent herbicide and scout fields, they’re both processes NDSU Extension Weed Specialist and Assistant Professor of Plant Sciences Joseph Ikley said are well worth it in the long run.

Colfax, N.D., farmer Craig Olson, who had about 5% of his fields planted on May 14 and wasn’t feeling particularly nervous at the time, said most operations like his practice pre-emergence and understand the benefits.

“I’d say, like most farmers, we haven’t used them a lot (in the past decade), and now with a lot more weed pressure and things changing, we do try to get them down if we can,” he said.

Benefits of pre-emergent herbicide

According to Ikley, there are many reasons farmers want to apply pre-emergence programs to their fields, especially when facing “the big three” weeds: • Water hemp and Palmer amaranth • Kochia • Horseweed or Marestail (no-till) “Once the soybeans emerge out of the soil, we lose several of our best options for problematic weeds. And once we spray the soybeans that emerge, we’ll kill them,” he said.

Here are some benefits of pre-emergent herbicides for farmers who haven’t already started a program.

Pre-emergent herbicides work better than post-emergent herbicides Ikley said pre-emergent herbicide works better because it widens the window of opportunity to get post-emergent herbicide application onto fields.

“With a pre-emergent herbicide, it’s more the four-to-six week window after planting to get back in the field to spray these post-emergence

herbicides,” he said.

Olson agrees with Ikley that pre-emergent herbicide is worth it despite the short timeframe and cost. “You can really relieve some of the pressure,” he said. “The best thing about pre-emerge is you can get that flush of weeds.

Sometimes if it all goes right, you can almost eliminate a pass later in the season.”

There are more pre-emergent herbicide options Ikley said 2019 is going to be a challenging season because of the quick planting window and the subsequent tight timeline to get sprayers following the planters.

“We have more options with pre-herbicides than we have in crop with post-emergent herbicides. Even if we talk about more common weeds like common lamb’s quarters, many of our options are not that great once lamb’s quarters gets some size on it, especially in soybean crops,” Ikley added.

Pre-emergence lessens the burden late in the season Pre-emergence herbicides are worth it in busy springs such as 2019’s. “It gives us more time end-season to get our post-emergence herbicides on,” Ikley said. “There’s some tight restrictions on some of these products, so having a wider window to actually get the products on gives us a better chance to give us a more favorable wind condition day to apply these products.”

What to do if pre-emergence isn’t an option

If farmers can’t get a pre-emergent herbicide on in time, there are five main systems particularly effective in light of herbicide-resistant weeds, Ikley said: 1. Conventional, non-GMO soybeans 2. RoundUp Ready systems 3. Liberty Link soybean 4. Xtend systems The fifth option is Enlist 2,4-D - this is a new technology recently approved by China that includes some restrictions.

Pay close attention to weed height Aside from new products on the market, Ikley

said weed height is of the utmost importance when applying post-emergent products. Too tall and the herbicides might kill the weeds - and the soybeans growing around them.

“We want to apply when weeds are three to four inches and not really much larger than that, especially when we talk about water hemp, kochia,” he said. “One of our biggest failures in the past 20 years is applying herbicides to weeds that are too large, and that’s really a way to fast-track resistance. So if we’re spraying six-to-eight-inch weeds, they’re not going to completely die. We’re going to have some weeds that have some degree of tolerance to these herbicides and they probably will produce some seed.”

Benefits of scouting

Prior to the wide implementation of RoundUp Ready technology, scouting fields was an important process when identifying and removing weeds from fields. It’s a practice Ikley says is very important once again because of herbicide resistance in weeds such as Palmer amaranth and water hemp.

“We had to know what weeds we had in the field to know the herbicide selectivity and make sure we applied the right herbicides to control the weeds that we had in those fields,” Ikley said. “We’re kind of getting back to that era with herbicide resistance.”

Scouting also helps farmers: • Understand what weeds are in their fields so they can plan for proper treatments.

• Catch weeds when they’re small enough to be treated with pre-emergent herbicides.

• Recognize weeds that were herbicide-resistant last year in order to make solid decisions on which herbicides to use this season.

Pre-planting advice for farmers

While many farmers are feeling anxious, Olson offers some good advice about late-season planting.

Do some maintenance “Go out and make sure all the equipment works,” Olson said. If equipment and machinery have some issues, now is the time to address them.

Practice patience “When you’re sitting here waiting for the soils to dry out and warm up, just have the patience to not push it too hard if you don’t need to,” he said.

Stay positive It’s not the first time farmers have faced a cold, wet, late spring, and it probably won’t be the last, so it’s best to see the glass half full right now. “We’ve planted crops late before and they’ve come out good in the end,” he said. get to two to three inches, that’s when they’re really going to grow up to two to three inches a day,” Ikley said. So it’s not only knowing the weeds in your field for the right herbicides, it’s knowing that some of our weeds can grow pretty quickly.”

Overall, Ikley says people are aware that scouting is smart practice now that Palmer amaranth and other invasive weeds have made their way to the Dakotas and Minnesota.

“My concern is if we don’t focus on scouting and trying to get people to scout we have a few stake plants that can lead to a trainwreck the next year or in subsequent years,” he said.

Be thankful for the earlier generations on your farm

By Jenny Schlecht Agweek Staff Writer

When I interview farmers and ranchers and ask them to tell me about their operations, the first thing many of them say is that they are the third or fourth or fifth generation on their farm, whatever the number may be.

They say that because they are proud to be continuing their family legacy of farming. If they are the fourth generation, their children are the fifth. How cool is it to be so connected to your ancestors?

I forget, sometimes, about the impact of those generations that came before. Making it to the third or fourth or fifth generation means the first and second generations got things going on the right foot.

My husband’s grandfather died a couple weeks ago. He was the first generation on the farm we live on, having sold a different farm and moved here in the 1960s.

My daughters don’t have a lot of memories of the man they called “Big Papa” outside of him being an old man who lived with their great aunt. He was almost 90 when our older daughter was born and had gone to live with his daughter when the ravages of age and dementia made living on the farm unsafe.

So when we told our girls that he had passed on, we talked about the fact that he built the house we lived in and the barns we use every day and that he farmed the fields and grazed cattle in the pastures as we still do.

His legacy is so much more than that, though. He was a World War II veteran who came back after his service to lead a quiet life focused on his Christian faith and his love of farming and his family. He helped start a church that still houses a vibrant congregation and raised a family that now includes an ever-increasing number of great-grandchildren.

On the farm, he didn’t just put up some buildings and pass on some land. He was the one who taught my father-in-law and my husband everything he knew about how to farm.

Their early lessons at driving tractors or caring for cattle came from him. Every piece of knowledge they’ve gained in the intervening years built up from a base that he gave them.

My own grandfather was the second generation on the farm on which I was raised.

He taught and guided his son and his grandchildren about the ways of farming and life.

Grandpa died five years ago. My dad has continued the operation; though we’re not physically on that farm, my brother and I both work in agriculture. Without the influence of the generations before us, our paths likely would have been much different.

When you lose a mentor on the farm, you’re often also saying goodbye to a parent or a grandparent. That can make the loss even harder. But we all can be thankful for what they gave to us.

Farming and ranching, more than other occupations, are part of a family’s legacy. We are connected to the people who worked the land before we did, even if we never got to meet them.

If you are lucky enough to still have the earlier generations around on your farm or ranch, enjoy them. Listen to their stories. Soak in their knowledge. If your earlier generations aren’t around, be glad for what they taught you and know that they likely would be very proud of what you’ve done to extend their legacy, either on or off the farm. AG

No surprise: slow planting start USDA provides area overview

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

A new U.S. Department of Agriculture report confirms that Upper Midwest farmers are far behind normal with their spring planting.

Area farmers are trailing their average planting pace in corn, wheat and soybeans, the region’s three major crops, according to the weekly crop progress report released May 13 by the National Agricultural Statistics Service, an arm of the USDA. The report reflected conditions on May 12.

An exceptionally late spring, punctuated with snowstorms in places, badly crimped planting in the first half of May, normally an active planting period. But the second half of May, along with the first 10 days of June, typically is when the bulk of area crops are planted, according to USDA figures. So favorable weather during the next few weeks could allow area farmers to make up at least part of the planting-progress gap.

Here’s a look at planting progress for wheat, corn and soybeans.

Spring wheat Wheat, a cool-season grass, usually is the first of the area’s major crops to be planted.

Montana — 55% of spring wheat was planted on May 12, compared with the

five-year average for the date of 68%.

South Dakota — 46% of spring wheat was in the ground on May 12, compared with the five-year average for the date of 88%.

North Dakota — 37% of spring wheat was planted on May 12, compared with the five-year average for the date of 58%.

Minnesota — 35% of spring wheat was planted on May 12, compared with the five-year average for the date of 68%.

Corn Corn typically is planted after wheat and before soybeans.

Minnesota — 21% of corn was planted on May 12, compared with the five-year average for the date of 65%.

North Dakota — 11% of corn was planted on May 12, compared with the fiveyear average for the date of 43%.

South Dakota — 4% of corn was in the ground on May 12, down sharply from the five-year average for the date of 54%.

Soybeans Soybeans normally are the last of the region’s three major crops to be planted.

North Dakota — 5% of soybeans was in the ground on May 12, down from the five-year average for the date of 20%.

Minnesota — 3% of soybeans was planted on May 12, compared with the five-year average for the date of 36%.

South Dakota — No soybeans were planted on May 12, compared with the five-year average of 19%. AG

Sell us your town, not just a house

By Annette Tait & Katie “Kate” Kassian Special to Agweek

We’re actively looking for our forever retirement homes. We’re not quite retirement age yet, but it’s never too early to start, right?

We have specific wants — we want to be in communities we can be an active part of and volunteer in. We want communities where we can find a new church family.

We want communities we can work in, if we choose to. We want at least some walkability, and things to do when the grandkids visit.

We want communities where we know our neighbors, even if we live outside of, or on the edge of town. And we want somewhere we can go to get at least basic groceries, and a clinic of some kind nearby would be nice.

And those are just a few of our wants!

How will we know if the places we’re looking at are right for us? Aside from taking some time and staying there for a while, we won’t. We’ll have to take a leap of faith.

That’s where real estate agents can play a large role in community building.

These folks are often the first point of contact for people like us. Real estate is not only a large investment of money, but, for most of us, an investment of years, too. We want to stay put for a while.

Our searches have taken us through multiple states and put us in contact with a number of agents. And we ask each and every one: “What is special about your town?”

A few have come through with flying colors and really cheered for their communities and surrounding areas. We now know where the best fishing can be found on local lakes, which towns

have awesome summer festivals, who makes cannoli, where to get clothes altered, the farm store with the best garden section, and who runs the local livestock market. We know how far it is from prospective houses to Main Street — in both walkable blocks and miles.

And we also know who just wants to sell us a house.

Don’t “just sell” houses and properties — sell us your town. Share with us what you love about it. And share the not-so-obvious information that will help us fall in love with it, too. Especially if we’re coming from somewhere else.

Mention that great café, or that there’s a festival or county fair coming up we should check out. If a love of vintage jewelry comes up in casual conversation, tell me about the 100-year-old jewelry store on Main Street that specializes in it. Tell hubby about that wonderful barber or specialty butcher.

Are we looking at property? Have we mentioned our animals? Maybe you know the local farrier or when the nearest livestock market is. And who’s a good veterinarian — the kind you can get a hold of when you need them?

Is there a reliable mechanic in town? Who do we call when the stove goes on the blink? We’re “Murphy’s Law” kinds of folks — if something can go wrong, it will, and we want to know if there’s going to be someone we can call when it does.

Did we mention grandkids? Maybe you can share if there’s a movie theater or bowling alley in town or nearby, or a public pool or great parks. Does the library have a story hour?

Engage us. Show us you’re interested, that you want us to be there.

This is no time to be humble — brag to us!

Every town, community and neighborhood — small or large — has something. Talk about it. We want to know. AG Find out more about how Tait & Kate help rural people, communities, and businesses thrive in “Tips & Tales” at www.taitandkate.com. www.genequip.com

SHINING STAR From Page 3

“So far there’s no shining star,” Wohlers says, referring to a crop with an opportunity for profit. “Usually you have something you can forward-contract or think, hey, there’s potential there. There really isn’t nothing” this year.

Tim said he’s trying to be smart to survive for another year or two until things get better. It’s tempting to cut back on fertilizer for corn and wheat. Soybeans don’t offer much hope.

“I raise some conventional (non-GMO) beans that bring a little bit of a premium — nothing crazy,” Tim says, but says there is little else to be excited about in the bean market. “You almost gotta sit and wait for a big change in a market because of a disaster somewhere — some part of the country or world doesn’t get planted. I always hate wishing that on anyone. Maybe we’ll be that part of the world this year.”

Prevented planting insurance policies are there, but not a good option, he says. “We’re already dipping into the equity. It’s no fun,” he says.

Farmers are trying to stay patient with the ongoing trade negotiation breakdowns between the U.S. and China aren’t helping commodity prices.

He still things may come to fruition. “That’s kind of the farmer’s mentality: You think too positive sometimes, I think,” he says. AG

Forging ahead: Planting delays, prices can’t obscure big picture

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

BRIDGING THE GAP

EDGELEY, N.D. — The Brandenburg family east of Edgeley is working to stay bullish on the future their farm, regardless of tough planting and price challenges.

Kurt Brandenburg, 59, his son-in-law, Chris Brummond, 36, and son, Kyle Brandenburg, 30, are striving to get through the downturns heading toward a brighter horizon. Kurt’s father, Don, 84, is is often nearby for helping with logistics.

Big equipment can help farmers get caught up, but “Mother Nature and the good Lord” control so much. Six miles to the north, fields were wetter and prevented farmers from getting in the fields. The field east of Edgeley that Kyle was

planting had been black and had better drainage, allowing some progress. “If it was no-till, it would be a lot stickier and gummier and we wouldn’t be able to go,” Kurt said.

Kurt said he thinks there will be a lot of prevented planting situations this year. “We’re going and doing what we can,” he says, and there may be an opportunity to come back and “patch” plant, later. A “soaker” was predicted for later in the week, which could set things back another week. “You never know,” he said.

‘Don’t spend unless you have to’ The Brandenburgs are raising corn and soybeans this year. Some years they also raise

wheat or pinto beans as well. On May 13, they’d been planting straight for two days, and had about 500 acres of corn in the ground, putting them about one-third done. As a group, they farm about 5,500 acres.

“It’s tricky with the soil temperature,” says Kyle, who is in his 10th year of leasing land. “We might’ve pushed it a little on the start. Hopefully it comes up all right.”

There are many factors in the pace of planting, so an end-date hard to predict, Kyle says. If things go smoothly, planting can be complete at about 200 acres a day. They use a DB60 John Deere planter — 60 feet wide, with some precision planting equipment on it. They added some new mudsmith gauge guards to the

machine.

“Just don’t spend unless you have to, make it work,” Kurt says, when asked what concepts will keep farmers upright in these times..

“You’ve got to keep the costs down because that interest is starting to climb, and it’ll catch you,” he says.” There’s a lot of people in that situation, I’m afraid.”

Kyle recognizes the sacrifices previous generations have made to allow his generation to get a start. The plan is to move forward, save and spend only on what he has to. Last year, they planted more soybeans to save on input costs, but the result was a “horrible harvest.”

“This year we bumped up a little more corn acres,” he says smiling. AG

Ag advocates, use negativity as fuel for your fire

By Amanda Radke Special to Agweek

In today’s digital world, it’s easy to be a keyboard cowboy.

As agricultural producers, we strive to not only grow and raise nutritious, affordable, safe and abundant food to nourish the world, but we also have the added responsibility of being transparent, explaining our production practices and advocating for our rights to farm in the future.

This responsibility to advocate, to be transparent and to connect with consumers on a regular basis can also be a great burden that weighs heavy on one’s shoulders.

After all, when you stick your neck out and tell your personal stories, you inadvertently open yourself up to haters, online comments, cyber bullies and trolls.

As an agricultural writer who pens about her life on a cattle ranch, I’ve experienced my fair share of hate mail over the years.

I still remember the first hateful comment I received after I posted a YouTube video from a walkout I coordinated at the Carrie Underwood concert held at the National FFA Convention in 2006.

The comment started out something like this: “Amanda, you’re a fat cow. You should be strung up by your legs and sent through a packing plant floor.”

I won’t go into detail, but this commenter ended her stream of hate explaining in detail how I would be murdered.

Yeah, that one got to me, and it’s stuck with me over the years — probably because it was so extreme and one of the first comments of that ilk I had ever had to read about myself.

Years later, as a joyful new mom penning about the arrival of my new daughter, I was accused of child abuse, compared to Nazi Germany and it was suggested that Child Protective Services be called because I didn’t deserve to be a mother if I felt no guilt about eating a beef animal.

Those comments sure stand out, but there have been countless more since then.

I’ve been called an anti-feminist for being a proud rancher’s wife. I’ve been called cruel for raising beef. I’ve been called fat, ugly, stupid, hateful, ignorant, intolerant … you name it, chances are someone has written a hurtful comment.

Yet, I continue to advocate and urge others to do the same.

Why? Because if we don’t tell our stories, someone else will do it for us. From environmen-

tal extremists to animal rights activists to competing plant-based/cell-cultured protein companies to politicians hoping to score a few points in the polls — agriculture has a huge target on its back.

Yet, we have an amazing story to tell as food producers. Our efficiencies and modern technological advances allow us to produce more food using fewer natural resources.

In the United States, we enjoy the safest and most affordable abundance of food than anywhere else on the planet.

However, it’s because of how “good” we’ve gotten at our jobs that has allowed the entitled to dictate production methods. While it’s great that in America we have options with producers in niche markets earning premiums for the products the elite want to buy.

However, when these idealists want to place blanket policies on all of agriculture to change the way we produce food in this country, it hurts our most vulnerable — the poor, the homeless and the hungry.

As regulatory burdens and retailer demands continue to squeeze American farmers and ranchers out of business, it doesn’t make for a better food system, it makes for a more expensive food system for all.

So what we need most right now is strong voices in agriculture. We need people who are willing to be vulnerable, who are willing to risk ridicule and criticism, who are willing to fight for their rights to manage their private property, to produce the commodities of their choice and to operate without fear of the future.

These strong voices are consumers, too, so while we advocate because we want to remain in business and secure our legacies, we also advocate because we want to continue to have access to safe, affordable, nutritious food to eat and feed our families.

What I’ve learned in more than a decade of agricultural advocacy is you can’t please everybody. Not everyone is going to resonate with your story. Not everyone is going to appreciate what you do. Not everyone is going to know your heart and your true intentions.

But at the end of the day, if you are authentic and open to dialogue, you’ll effectively reach your target audience.

As for the haters, use their comments as fuel for your fire, and be the best advocate and producer you can possibly be!

New Montana law creates farmer-rancher student debt assistance

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

HELENA, Mont. — A new Montana state law will create a student debt assistance loan program to help young ranchers and farmers pay off up to half or their student loans when they commit to five years of ranching or farming.

Gov. Steve Bullock the legislation May 10. Finances won’t be in place until October and the applications likely will come in the spring, promoters say.

State Rep. Zach Brown, D-Bozeman, was the prime sponsor. He is an urban legislator who works for a non-profit called “One Montana” that promotes rural vitality. His district includes part of the Montana State University campus.

Under House Bill 431: ► At least 50 percent of the individual’s income must be from production agriculture. ► People applying must have either a two- or four-year degree, which doesn’t necessarily have to be agriculture-related. ► Successful applicants must be a resident, whose primary occupation is to operate a farm or ranch. ► A recipient must commit to operate a farm

or ranch for at least the next five years. If recipients don’t fulfill that, they are responsible to repay any assistance. ► The recipient must be the primary owner or next in line, with plans of taking over the farm and ranch.

The debt is paid through the Growth For Agriculture Fund, administered by the Montana Department of Agriculture. A board would decide whether to accept the application or not. The board can decide whether to give relatively few larger grants, or more smaller grants.

The program has been in place since 1987, providing funding for strengthening and diversifying agricultural businesses, Brown said. There is $100,000 that can be used for the student debt assistance program, Kiah Abbey, interim director of the non-profit Forward Montana based in Missoula, said student debt is an “incredible barrier” for getting into starting a farm or ranch.

“It’s a new idea helping to diversify the folks coming into farming and ranching,” Abbey said.

Rachel Prevost is from Lambert, Mont., where her family raises spring wheat, safflower and cattle.

She’s a senior at Carroll College, a private college, so the loan assistance program won’t be available to her, but it could help her younger brother who will attend Montana State University this fall.

“I know for our family, having a program available that can alleviate a portion of student loan debt makes it possible for someone in our family to come back to our family farm and ranch and continue working, producing and innovating as an ag producer in Montana, without the full weight of stu-

Liv Stavick, the Montana Farm Bureau director of state affairs, said about 60 percent of Montana graduates carry debts, and those debts average of $28,000 per student.

“High tuition costs and low commodity prices have created the perfect storm in which the decision for young people to return to production agriculture is simply not financially viable straight out of school,” Stavick said. AG

Mental

in Times of Farm Stress Physical

FARGO, N.D. — Most farmers and ranchers have lists of chores they want to get done. But rarely do they remember to put caring for the most important asset on their operations on their lists, says Sean Brotherson, North Dakota State University Extension family science specialist.

“On that list, the first and most important thing needs to be the care of their own health and the people around them,” he says. “You can take care of your operation, but taking care of yourself is essential to being able to take care of your operation.”

Brotherson was raised on a ranch, so he knows the stresses that can come with agriculture. Farming and ranching generally rank in the top 10 for most stressful occupations, but right now, with low commodity prices, high input costs, poor weather and global strife, operators are dealing with a “pileup of additional stressors,” Brotherson says.

That “pileup” has led to many to sound the alarm on the mental and emotional health of farmers and ranchers. While the data is hard to nail down, suicides among farmers and ranchers are believed to be far higher than in the population as a whole. And along with concerns about suicide are concerns about the overall well-being of the nation’s farmers and ranchers.

“Timing, weather, prices,” he lists. “In my Part of the problem, Alyssa Schultz says, is Stressful life that farmers often don’t want to feel that they Derek Schultz describes himself as a “self- area, there is a lot of competition that can really have weaknesses or that they can’t handle the made farmer.” His dad farmed when Derek was weigh in on the rest of the perspective.” work they have to do.

By Jenny Schlecht Agweek Staff Writer

Michelle Erickson-Jones farms in Broadview, Mont., and has spoken openly about her mental health struggles. She was diagnosed with postpartum depression after the birth of her second son and more recently has been struggling with feelings of anxiety. The low prices and the late spring haven’t helped.

“It just compounds,” she says.

It’s not that other occupations don’t have stresses; it’s that farming and ranching can become so much a part of a person’s identity that the stresses don’t end when work is done for the day.

“I myself have punched the clock, and I did that for many years until the cards all lined up and I was able to farm on my own.

If you’re working at a factory, when the bell rings, that’s it. You’re done. You don’t worry about that place until you’re back there,” Derek Schultz explains.

On the farm, that to-do list sticks with you, he says.

Even so, stepping away from the farm can be “almost overwhelming” — even with a wife who works in the mental health field issuing regular reminders about the importance of doing so, Derek Schultz says.

“It is very difficult for farmers to detach,” he says. “Even the 10 minutes a day thing.

It’s just hard to get that detached.”

“With farming, it’s really hard to find that self care, because there’s never time,” Alyssa Schultz says.

Alyssa Schultz is the crisis services supervisor for the Mobile Mental Health Crisis Response Program for Clay, Ottertail and Wilkin counties in Minnesota. She wants farmers to know there is help for mental and emotional problems.

Broadview, Mont., farmer Michelle Erickson-Jones said getting help for her postpartum depression made it feel like a weight was lifted off of her. She now is seeking assistance for anxiety.

For Erickson-Jones, finding a treatment provider for her anxiety has been a compounding factor. Broadview is only 30 miles from Billings, Mont., which has two major medical centers and many health care providers. Even so, of the first five places she called seeking help, two never called her back and three weren’t taking new patients.

She knows she has other options in Billings; she worries, though, about people in even more rural areas who are farther removed from health care or those for whom those five calls would become overwhelming.

Seeking balance Brotherson has a lot of helpful analogies when speaking of farm stress. Perhaps the most apt is that if a warning light went off on the tractor, the smart choice would be to stop the tractor, find the problem and deal with it.

Depression, anxiety, trouble sleeping, trouble communicating, suicidal feelings and other feelings that something isn’t right shouldn’t be hidden away as weaknesses, he says.

They should be investigated and treated.

“It just means it’s a warning signal that their mental and emotional health is certainly being affected in a major way, and they need to take care of themselves and they need to access resources that are helpful to them,” he says.

The first step he suggests is getting a health checkup. That will provide a baseline of not only physical health concerns but also mental and emotional health. A health

care provider can refer a patient on to other services if necessary.

Next, Brotherson has two main recommendations: getting regular physical exercise and connecting socially with other people.

Exercise can seem unnecessary to some farmers and ranchers who spend their days on physically taxing work. But Brotherson says many people find that a vigorous walk or engaging in a sport can be a good way to let go of the struggles of the farm.

“Physical exercise of some type is really important as a stress management strategy that almost everybody can implement,” he says.

Social connection also is key. Having several people to talk to, either about the stresses faced or about topics completely unconnected to the farm, can provide a relief. Those conversations shouldn’t be just an occasional thing.

“Try to take the opportunity to connect with somebody socially every day,” Brotherson stresses. He adds that having people in one’s life to whom you’re accountable, like a spouse or friend who issue reminders about healthy decisions, can be helpful.

Alyssa Schultz explains that the Mobile Mental Health Crisis Response Program is a free program through the Minnesota Department of Human Services that seeks to help people find resources for their mental health problems while keeping them safe in their homes. Her team and others across the state respond 24 hours per day to calls for help.

While they work to line people up with further resources, whether it’s counseling, psychiatric care or other services, the mobile mental health crisis teams also act as a bridge until the person can get lined up with the right services.

During that bridge time, Alyssa Schultz and others provide social connection for patients and work with the patients on methods of self-care and building skills to help them cope with their feelings.

For farmers, Alyssa Schultz stresses the importance of taking 10 minutes out of the day to do something that isn’t farming. Read a book. Go for a walk. Meditate.

“What that really does is, it gives your mind a break,” she says, noting that strategy isn’t just for people actively struggling with MENTAL HEALTH: Page 15

MENTAL HEALTH From Page 13

mental health concerns. “It’s everybody who can benefit from those things.”

She suggests taking time every day to think of three good things about the day; the practice has been shown to be as helpful to some people as taking an antidepressant when done for at least 21 days, she says.

For people who have displayed suicidal tendencies, the crisis response team makes safety plans, which include who the patient can call and where they can go when they’re struggling.

They also work on planning day-to-day activities. For farmers, that can be difficult.

“Because with farming, you have a to-do list that’s a million miles long, and you’re never going to get it completed, because by the time you get all of the corn in the ground you’ve got something else to do. So there’s never really a day that you have where you feel accomplished,” Alyssa Schultz explains.

So, she asks them to plan at least one thing they can finish every day, even if it’s just a small project. Having something to check off the list can lead one to feel accomplished and less overwhelmed by the things that didn’t get done.

Finding stress relief isn’t the same for everyone. At Erickson Farm, there is a tee box and driving range by a barn for use during breaks, Erickson-Jones says. For Derek Schultz, family suppers and the involvement of his wife and 2-year-old daughter on the farm keep him going.

“Having the family out in the field really reminds you what you’re doing it for,” he says.

When Erickson-Jones first received treatment for her postpartum depression, she felt like a weight was taken off of her shoulders.

She wants people to know that mental health problems and emotional turmoil can be treated.

“You’re not supposed to feel like this all the time,” she says.

Brotherson says that’s an important point to make.

Minnesota farmer Derek Schultz says time with his family is his stress release from the daily grind of farming.

“These problems aren’t new,” he says. “There are a lot of people who have successfully dealt with and managed them before, and that means that you can, too.”

With better mental and emotional health, farmers and ranchers will be better able to make good decisions for their operations. That means putting health priorities on the top of the to-do list has a good return on investment, Brotherson says.

“We need to prioritize our own health, including ... not just our physical health but our mental health to be able to work towards the wellbeing of our farm or ranch operation,” he says. AG

INTRODUCING THE NEW CC-440 KNIFE

High rise tip protects locking thumb for extended wear of main knife body.

Front profile of CC-440 www.langesupply.com

It’s beefy, shorter profile gives the CC-440 the ground clearance and strength needed for today’s newer chisel plows, while still providing maximum sealing of your fertilizer in wet or dry soil, just like it’s time tested brother, the CC-240!

DUAL BANDING KNIFE Fits behind any Lange knife providing dry fertilizer placement approximately 1” above the NH3 placement

Markets finally respond to wet weather It definitely took a while.

The market had been trending lower for weeks. Pressure had come from the ongoing and intensifying trade war between the U.S. and China, as well as diplomatic tension between Canada and China. On top of that, huge supplies of grain and oilseeds domestically and abroad had kept pressure on. Speculative funds were holding incredibly large short positions for corn, wheat, and soybeans.

Even with wet conditions across the majority of the U.S. growing areas all spring, the market had generally shrugged off planting delay news. As late as Monday (after China’s move to increase tariffs on $60 billion of U.S. goods in retaliation of a previous tariff hike announced by the Trump administration), agriculture markets were pushing to new lows.

And then the markets turned. The U.S. Department of Agriculture put out its weekly Crop Progress and Conditions Report on Monday afternoon, and the market was surprised at how far behind planting of corn, soybeans, spring wheat, and other crops were. The market had been trading under the assumption that the last week of dry weather would have gotten farmers somewhat caught up, but when the report



showed ongoing delays the market began to rally. This brought out some buyers and funds began to reduce their net short positions. As a result, prices have rallied most of the week for major agricultural products.

For most of the U.S. Corn Belt and Northern Plains, weather has been cooperative and dry this week. This should allow for good progress which will be reported Monday afternoon.

If that occurs, look for the market rally to cool as fears of major acreage loss and quality issues may subside. But if the USDA shows that farmers are still well behind, look for higher prices, as rains are set to return to growing areas in the latter part of May.

Wheat Wheat markets are higher, approaching levels not seen since March. From a technical

perspective, old highs have not been breached, so there should be some resistance to upward price movement if bullish sentiment continues.

Spring planting delays are supportive, with the weekly USDA report showing 45% of the crop done compared to 22% a week ago and 67% for the five-year average pace. The winter wheat crop remains in very good condition with all the wet weather: 64% of the crop is rated good or excellent compared to last year’s 36% rating.

Durum The durum market has not been moved by this week’s bump in wheat prices. In North Dakota, the durum planting push is delayed, though not as behind as other crops.

The USDA reported farmers planting 25% completed compared to 24% a year ago, but lagging the five-year average pace of 35%.

Canola The canola market has continued to work higher. There has not been a major change in export expectations with China directly, but the intensifying of trade conflict between the U.S. and China does point toward more demand shift away from the U.S. with some oilseed exports going to Cana-

da. This has yet to materialize, though.

Weather remains an issue in many areas, too.

Hanging over the canola market is the large supply situation.

Barley The U.S. barley crop is delayed, but farmers made good progress in the last week. USDA says 59% of the crop has been planted compared to the five-year pace of 72%.

Peas and lentils The growing season for pulses will provide market direction in the months ahead, but for now, lagging export data is driving prices. Good Indian demand for lentils is supportive, while weak pea imports by China is bearish.

Mustard seed Prices for mustard seed have been unchanged for the last few weeks. Planting in Canada has been progressing at a slower pace than normal, with farmers in Saskatchewan reportedly 3% behind the average pace. Planting is progressing much faster than a year ago, however. AG

Late planting sparks key market reversal Wheat Technical indicators are showing a possible bottom in the wheat complex. It doesn’t happen very often in grains where we have a spike bottom (May 13 price action with a new low followed by a higher close). But these markets have been counterseasonal so far (lows in the spring during planting) so the bottom could be in. Generally, grain markets languish at lows for months at a time.

The markets have been anything but typical this season. I always await the threat of a spring freeze to spark the wheat markets for 30 cent gains in the spring. But with everything running counterseasonal, maybe it will be the threat of warmer and wetter conditions during heading and a crop behind average in maturity that gives the wheat a boost in the spring of 2019.

Soft red ratings continue to be lower than average compared to hard red ratings. This has led to a widening of the Kansas City to Chicago spread to -50.25 cents. Typically, the Kansas City market is +10 cents to Chicago. It’s been interesting watching this spread widen from the -20 to -35 area for much of the winter.

Winter wheat conditions remained steady at 64% good to excellent for the second straight week. The crop is rated 28% fair and 8% poor or very poor. Winter wheat headed is 42% compared to 54% for the five-year average. Spring wheat is 45% planted compared to 67% for the five-year average. Emergence of 10% is well behind the average pace of 34%, but it can be noted that last year at this time it was 13%.

A private forecaster estimates spring wheat acreage at 12.36 million acres versus the 12.83 million acres estimate in the March planting intentions report. This would jive with what we have been hearing from customers that decided against planting additional spring wheat acres with the April decline in prices.

Russian wheat prices have been on a downtrend. Recent Black Sea Region prices have been quoting $181 per metric ton, down from $211 per metric ton in April.

Weekly export inspections were a marketing year high of 842,000 metric tons (31 million bushels). With three weeks to go, it is likely that the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s revised export target of 925 million bushels for 2018-19 will be met. New crop export sales were 419,000 metric tons (15.4 million bushels) which was above expectations. Old crop sales were minimal, bringing total commitments to 943 million bushels and enough to justify USDA’s 925 million bushels export projection.

Current support is $4.485 Chicago. The March 26 high of $4.825 would be considered resistance. Current support for July Minneapolis is $5.15 with resistance at $5.354; $5.4525 would be considered heavier resistance.

Corn Corn futures experienced a key reversal early week after reaching new contract lows. As of May 7, managed funds were at 282,000 contracts net short, short covering 25,000 short contracts with much more short covering activity this week. Much-behind-average planting progress sparked the move higher.

Corn planting progress as of May 12 was at 30% versus the fiveyear average of 66% complete. Many trade estimates were at 33% to 36%. The eastern Corn Belt raised a number of red flags with Illinois only 11% planted versus 82% for the five-year average. Indiana at 6% versus 57% average and Ohio at 4% versus 47% complete are heavily saturated and not expected to get much planted this

week or even the following week with any rain.

The rest of the Corn Belt wasn’t much better with northern tier states all well behind average pace. Minnesota was at 1% planted versus 22%, South Dakota 4% versus 54% and North Dakota 11% versus 43%. The Mississippi Delta continues to struggle with comments that Arkansas, after 5-inch rains last week, may see planted corn acres fall from the intended 830,000 to 450,000.

It’s still a weather market despite all the rhetoric on the trade front, and the weather has not cooperated the last few weeks to allow timely U.S. planting and we’ve set ourselves up for a potentially bullish situation. Last year, the first weekly crop ratings for corn were released at 80% good to excellent with trade expecting about 70%. This effectively ended the spring rally and the market never recovered. Now we have a situation where little corn is in the ground and that which is planted is struggling with emergence. I could see a scenario where we get very poor crop ratings with the first report of the season the last week in May. This on top of poor planting progress and a potential E15 announcement that has been promised by June 1 would all be friendly to the corn market.

The weather can always turn on a dime, but some forecasters have alluded to the 1993 summer. That was the 40-40-40 year in the north with 40 bushel yields, 40% moisture and 40-pound test weight corn, a total disaster. Extended forecasts show a wetter pattern continuing at least through the first half of June. There is a lot of speculation now that prevented planting acres for corn could surge higher as the ever important date of May 25 approaches.

The $3.8075 July resistance held in May 15 trade, with the market reaching $3.80. Current support is $3.6875, with the 50-day moving average of $3.71.

Weekly ethanol production was 7.357 million barrels, up 1.45% from last week and down 0.66% versus last year. Stocks as of May 10 were 22.25 million barrels, down 0.97% from last week but up 3.46% versus last year.

Soybeans November soybean futures saw an impressive turnaround after reaching a contract low of $8.155 as they found support from the corn and winter wheat markets. There was also likely some short covering from the funds as they were adding to their record short soybean positions for the past month. When everybody starts believing that soybeans should keep going lower with the trade talks with China going nowhere, the funds start buying. End users are also seeing these soybean prices as a bargain.

Heavy delays in planting pace also gave the market a boost.

Even with corn planting well behind schedule, there doesn’t seem to be much fear of soybean acres increasing as soybean prices continue to lag down near 10-year lows. The overabundance of ending stocks in the U.S. also will not disappear anytime soon. The USDA did announce a sale of reported 6.6 million bushels of U.S. soybeans for 2018-19, sold to an unknown buyer.

Brazil’s soybeans are priced about 70-80 cents higher than U.S. old crop soybeans currently, which makes U.S. soybeans a bar-

gain to most global buyers other than China.

Soybeans planted for the week ending May 13 was 9% complete versus 32% last year and 29% for the five-year average.

The trade was expecting 14% planted. The entire Midwest is now at least 12%-30% behind average pace. Minnesota is 3% planted versus 36% for the five-year average. Other states that are lagging compared to their average are Illinois 3% versus 34%, Indiana 2% versus 26%, Iowa 13% versus 31%, North Dakota 5% versus 20%, and South Dakota is 1% versus 19% average. There is only one state (North Carolina) out of the 18 states the USDA surveys that is ahead of the five-year pace.

The National Oilseed Processors Association crush numbers for April were 159.99 million bushels, which was slightly below the estimates of 161.607 and down for the second month in a row. There also was talk that China made a large purchase of soybeans from Brazil and that could be with the breakdown in trade talks with the U.S. Export sales totaled 24.8 million bushels and above the 5.4 million bushels we saw last week, but there are still 265 million bushels unshipped to China. For the week ending May 9, USDA reported an increase of 13.6 million bushels (370,900 metric tons) of soybean export sales for 2018-19 and an increase of 11.1 million bushels (303,400 metric tons) for 2019-20. Last week’s export shipments of 22.6 million bushels were below the 31 million bushels needed each week to achieve USDA’s export estimate of 1.775 billion bushels in 2018-19. Soybean export commitments now total 1.662 billion bushels in 2018-19 and are down 18% from a year ago. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue said his department is looking at another $15 billion to $20 billion package for this year.

November soybeans broke through the contract low of $8.30 on May 10. The contract low of $8.155 set on May 13 is new support.

Resistance for November is $8.7425. The front month contract July low of $7.91 set on May 13 is the lowest futures price since $7.76 that was set in December 2008. This is now major support.

Canola For the week ending May 16, July canola futures were up $11.20 at $447 Canadian per metric ton. The July Canadian dollar was down .00115 at 0.74395. This brings the U.S. price to $15.08 per hundredweight. ► Velva, N.D., $15.15 per hundredweight, June at $14.65. ► Enderlin, N.D., $15.22 per hundredweight, June at $15.22. ► Hallock, Minn., $15.44 per hundredweight, June at $15.27. ► Fargo, N.D., $15.15 per hundredweight, July at $15.20.

Barley Cash feed barley bids in Minneapolis were at $3.25, while malting barley received no quote. Berthold, N.D., bid is $2.75 and CHS Southwest New Salem, N.D., bid $3.

Durum Cash bids for milling quality durum are $4.50 in Berthold and at $4.55 in Dickinson, N.D.

Sunflower Cash sunflower bids in Fargo were at $17.10. June bids were at $17.25.

For the week ending May 16, soybean oil was up 93 cents at $27.72 on the July contract. AG Monday, May 20, 2019 / AGWEEK A27
