ACKSON, Minn. — It is much rarer for the public to see modernday ag technology being developed up-close, than it is for the public to see machinery manufacturers of yesteryear. AGCO Corp. has set a new standard for transparency in modern machinery development in the region. The company opened its Intivity Center and plant COVER STORY expansion in Jackson, Story and photos by Minn., in June. The Mikkel Pates, Agweek facility is just off of Interstate 90, less than 100 miles east of Sioux Falls, S.D. Among other things, it features its impressive Intivity Center, open to the public for tours on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The company hosted a two-day open house for 600 dealers in early June. Since then, about 5,000 have come through the facility — 30 percent from the general public, drawn in from a billboard on the highway. The plant itself employs nearly 1,200 people in a town of 3,500. Together, they make about 5,000 or 6,000 units of various kinds of equipment each year — mainly large tractors and sprayers. The company is poised for growth. AGCO’s Jackson site has seen a lot

Cattail tales

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

FARGO, N.D. — Should North Dakota farmers be able to collect prevent-plant crop insurance payments in 2012 on excessively wet acres, despite being in the middle of a drought? Some North Dakota farmers and other officials think so. They say some crop insurance companies are unfairly refusing to recognize the prevent-plant, or PP, claims in 2012, even though they say the acres were too wet to plant. Mike Clemens, a Wimbledon, N.D., farmer, has held leadership positions in corn and sunflower organizations in the state and nation. Clemens says some of his acres couldn’t be planted in early 2012 because of carryover saturation from the spring of 2011, adding that torrential rains last summer were a “new cause of loss” for spring planting this year. Federal officials say the PP rules are applied on a case-by-case basis, and have not changed since a special provisions statement was published in November. That statement specified six provisions, the only new one being that the PP acre had to have been planted to an insured crop at least once in the past four years. The statement applied to the prairie pothole states of North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota and Iowa for PP eligi-

REGIONAL NEWS

Farmers protesting prevent-plant issue

bility, says Kathy Gilbertson, a senior risk management specialist for the agency regional office in Billings, Mont. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Risk Management Agency published a bulletin in June that clarified the rules again, but did not change them. Gilbertson says the bulletin was prompted by complaints from farmers upset they were being denied in some cases. One long-standing condition for denial is the presence of cattails or other waterloving plants on acres for which farmers have filed claims. “That’s been in our procedures since 2006,” she says. “It’s not new.” Nearly 5.5 million acres were unplanted in 2011 in North Dakota because of excess moisture. As of Sept. 5, farmers in the state had reported 592,782 preventplant acres in 2012, according to the RMA. That number could change if claims are denied or if some additional acres are not yet processed into the system.

Still too wet?

Clemens says there are acres that legitimately should be compensated under PP rules because they’re still too wet. “A lot of farms had 5 percent of their acres that still couldn’t get planted,” Clemens estimates. He says farmers paid prevent-plant insurance premiums on those acres and he listed rains between

THE STRONGEST ROOF

June and August in 2011 as the reason for a PP claim on his farms. “It was about 200 percent of precipitation for that time period,” he says. Clemens is claiming acres that were planted in 2008, but the insurance company has told him the 2007 to 2008 crop year shouldn’t count because it was an abnormally dry season. But Clemens thinks that year may be more normal than recent wet years. He says records show rainfall in the area in 2011 was 150 to 300 percent of normal. Gilbertson declines to comment on his specific case, but says these things are provable on a case-by-case basis. Doug Goehring, North Dakota commissioner of agriculture, says he’s been trying to sort it out since June and that his phone has been “ringing off the hook.” He thinks RMA should stand behind the one-in-four year planting rule. He adds that cattails grow from blowing seed and can be established within a year’s time, so are not a reliable guide to determine what’s eligible for PP coverage.

Not automatic

Gilbertson says the one-in-four year provision got so much publicity that farmers misunderstood its significance. “Just because you planted (in 2008 or subsequent years) doesn’t mean you automatically qualify in 2012,” she says, adding that the cause of loss for 2012 had

to occur between March 15, 2011 and the end of June 2012. Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., on Aug. 31, phoned RMA Administrator William Murphy and asked him to “honor the terms of the revised rules” for PP application in prairie pothole states of North Dakota, Minnesota, South Dakota and Iowa. Nothing had changed as of Sept. 5, according to a Hoeven spokesman, who says about 30 farmers have been in contact with his office about it recently. The rule was “formerly applied inconsistently,” Hoeven says, adding that it “undermines the entire intent of last year’s program change.” In North Dakota, Clemens says the situation is a problem from Minot to Devils Lake to Lisbon, where PP acres have been most prevalent. Gilbertson says farmers have the option to sign the claim or not, and go to arbitration. The farmer would prepare a separate set of worksheets requesting the claim be paid as he or she would like. She says the normal precipitation period was considered 1970 to 2000 until it was updated earlier this year to 1980 to 2010, which increased normal precipitation by about an inch in North Dakota. Clemens thinks that’s wrong. “We’d like a fair shake, right out of the chute,” he says. “We don’t want to go through appeals procedures with thousands of producers.”

Complete ban on slaughter a positive effect for horse welfare I

By Jo-Claire Corcoran

JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind. — I read the recent cover story about the proposed horse slaughter plants in the U.S. (Agweek, Aug. 27) To say the plants are having problems getting opened is an understatement. The New Mexico plant owners already have publicly stated they are no longer seeking to slaughter horses. Remember, this is a plant that was shut down in February for inhumane treatment of cattle and recently was fined more than $80,000 for environmental violations with the composting pile. The plant in Rockville, Mo., has a miasma of legal problems that will have to be worked out and settled before anything can open there — horse, cattle or whatever. Fraud, liens and other issues are a part of a scheme by certain parties to bilk others out of funds. The Oregon plant? Well, the

local government is totally against a horse slaughter plant opening. The waterways there are protected. What everyone seems to forget is we don’t raise horses in the U.S. for food. The horses being sent to slaughter are obtained from sources such as auctions, Craigslist and others, some in illegal processes. Horse meat is not safe for human consumption. As recently as July, a kill buyer was fined for falsifying the Equine Information Document form and knowingly sending a horse to slaughter which tested positive for bute and clenbuterol. Both are banned substances. There are no withdrawal times for banned substances. Additionally, before the defunding language was being placed in the bill, this country already was shipping horses to Canada and Mexico. No one seemed to be concerned about those horses then. The horses going to slaughter are not old, sick or infirmed horses — they are sound, young, healthy horses per the U.S. Department of Agriculture records. Average ages are 5 to 9, with the majority being quarter horses. This stands to reason since the American Quarter Horse Association has been offering breeding

incentives and trying to become the largest breed registry. Well, the AQHA succeeded, and the majority of the horses are going to slaughter. A Government Accountability Office report stated three options — one was make changes with USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service to lift the defunding language or completely ban the slaughter and transport of horses for slaughter. A complete ban is the only way to have a positive effect on horse welfare. Please explain to me how slaughtering a horse helps that horse. Slaughter doesn’t stop abuse and neglect. People who abuse and neglect horses do so no matter what options are available. Most people do not want to send their horses to slaughter. Abuse and neglect is directly related to the unemployment rate, and this holds true for all companion animals. (The U.S. Food and Drug Administration does classify horses as companion animals.) I have to question an ag publication that would promote the slaughter of animals not raised for food, knowing the medications we give our horses, and knowing those medications are known carcinogens. Is our meat export industry

worth the risk of people eating adulterated meat from an animal we did not raise for food? What happens to our beef exports or our pork exports then, when other countries determine U.S.-raised meat products are not safe to eat? Next year, European Union regulations for exports of horse meat go into effect. By Aug. 1, the U.S. must have a “passport” program in place to track the medications and products used on our horses. This document must be assigned to the horse before it is 6 months old and must accompany the horse for life. Every medication and product must be administered by a veterinarian and documented. That means any de-wormer — if your horse starts to colic, you would not be able to administer banamine without a veterinarian. If the horse receives any medication from the banned list, that horse must be deemed unacceptable for slaughter for human consumption. Implementing a program like this would take more funding from our government, more personnel and, frankly, we can’t afford it.

vest in pipeline expansion. Building infrastructure to gather natural gas in new oil fields typically is a matter of playing catchup. As it is, millions of dollars are being spent to develop an adequate natural gas pipeline network. The irony is that the flared natural gas could be used to manufacture nitrogen fertilizers (anhydrous ammonia) that can be used in the state’s corn and wheat fields. Fertilizer costs have gone from about $100 a ton in the 1990s to $850 a ton today, according to North Dakota Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring. Converting natural gas in the Bakken to fertilizers would do much to bring down the fertilizer price. A New York company wants to build a portable fertilizer plant that could be moved among oil wells in North Dakota. It would-

n’t have to wait for the pipelines to reach new wells, and it could reduce flaring, separate valuable natural gas byproducts and produce fertilizer. It seems to be a smart, innovative and practical answer to a difficult problem — except the company wants a $1 million grant from North Dakota; a quarter of the cost of developing the prototype. The Industrial Commission — made up of state officials Gov. Jack Dalrymple, Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem and Goehring — did the right thing recently when it delayed a response to N-Flex LLC. It doesn’t mean the commission isn’t going to bite. It means, we hope, that the commission’s staff is going to do due diligence on N-Flex and its proposal. The commission said it wanted more information on the company’s financial assumptions and feasibility of the

project. The state may be flush, but the Industrial Commission got it right in not pulling the trigger on that kind of money without a thorough review. It’s always a worry when there’s only one company knocking at your door. The Industrial Commission does have another fertilizer proposal in the works. A Fargobased company received $100,000 from the Industrial Commission to study building a $1 billion farmer-owned fertilizer plan in the Upper Midwest. North Dakota is helping develop smart options to flaring natural gas. It takes time and money. The Industrial Commission needs to keep the pressure on industry to develop practical and effective solutions for the state’s environmental and economic future.

Press forward on natural gas issues Too much is going to waste

I

Bismarck (N.D.) Tribune

BISMARCK, N.D. — North Dakota needs to have more of its natural gas captured and put to good use. It’s an environmental issue. It’s an economic issue. More than 30 percent of the natural gas produced in the state is flared — burned off at the well site. That’s too high. Nationally, only 1 to 2 percent gets burned off. Natural gas flaring here isn’t a new issue. The oil boom only makes it a harder problem to solve. The oversupply of natural gas drives down the price, making it harder to find capital to in-

The hole in the farm safety net

Price Loss Coverage program might be best chance for a fix

FARGO, N.D. — The proposed farm bills (with one exception) for the 2013 to 2017 period are languishing in Congress and have a hole in the safety net. It would take a few years to expose the hole and odds now seem low that it would occur, but it is there just waiting. The main safety net is crop insurance, with revenue insurance being the most popular type of policy. It accounted for 85 percent of the 189 million acres of corn, soybeans and wheat that were insured this year. Revenue insurance uses average production history (APH) yield multiplied by price and then multiplied by level of coverage to determine the amount of revenue guarantee. Therefore, if the APH or price declines, so will the guarantee. The price used is determined from a time period of one month. Fortunately, we have experienced several years of historically high prices, which have provided a strong crop insurance safety net. Unfortunately, this period, not coincidently, has ushered in record high costs. For example, the cost per acre of raising wheat in North Dakota has doubled since 2006. The hole in the safety net will be exposed when there is a significant drop in prices. The crop insurance revenue

guarantee will fall, but costs likely will remain high, at least initially. This can potentially expose producers to a large financial loss. In this situation, what can shore up income? Shallow-loss programs such as the proposed Agriculture Risk Coverage of the Senate farm bill and the Revenue Loss Program (RLC) of the House farm bill would only cover up to 10 percent of crop income shortfalls when certain criteria are met. Also, these programs have similar shortcomings as revenue crop insurance does, but they are slower-acting. Limited payments are made when a calculated “actual crop revenue” is less than a calculated “benchmark revenue.” Five-year Olympic average marketing year prices are used in the determination of the benchmark revenue. The impact of falling prices on these safety nets is slower because a multiyear average price is used. In concept, the programs that provide the last line of defense against the impact of falling prices and could stuff this hole in the farm safety net are the current Marketing Loan and Countercyclical Payment programs and the proposed Price Loss Coverage program in the House farm bill. Loan rates under the current market-

ing loan program are an old component of the farm safety net dating back to the 1933 farm bill. Its mechanisms have evolved through time, but the loan rate essentially puts a revenue floor on each bushel produced. The higher the loan rate, the better the safety net. From 1998 through 2001, market prices were at or below loan rates and large loan deficiency payments were made to producers. Loan rates, however, have not kept pace to protect revenue against ever-escalating production costs. Loan rates have changed little during the past 18 years. In fact, the current soybean loan rate is lower than it was in 1980. During the past five years (2007 through 2011), loan rates averaged less than one-half of market prices. All farm program proposals have no change in loan rates. The Countercyclical Payment (CCP) program was initiated in the 2002 farm bill after a series of ad hoc disaster bills during low price years was necessary to shore up farm income. Countercyclical payments are determined by the relationship of target prices to market prices. If market prices are below the effective target price, payments are triggered. Unlike loan deficiency payments, these payments are not tied to current

production. Instead, payments are made based on historic production (program yields and base acres). Like loan rates, CCP target prices are too low to be considered an adequate safety net. CCP is eliminated in the 2012 farm bills proposed in both the Senate and House versions. The best chance to plug the hole in the price safety net is the Price Loss Coverage program proposed in the House farm bill. Producers would have to choose between the PLC and RLC shallow-loss program if this bill becomes law. Like the current CCP program, PLC payments are made when the market price is lower than a target or reference price. But payments are made on 85 percent of current planted acres, not on historic base acres. The PLC reference prices are much higher than the CCP target prices. For instance, the reference price under PLC would be $8.40 per bushel for soybeans, compared with the effective target price of $5.56 per bushel under CCP.

Japanese company building grain elevator in ND

I BUCYRUS, N.D. – A Japanese conglomerate is building a new grain elevator in southwest North Dakota, giving the company easier access to the wheat Japan already imports from the upper Great Plains. Jim Peterson, marketing director for the North Dakota Wheat Commission, says Japan buys about 24 million bushels of the state’s hard red spring wheat annually. “Japan has a huge amount at stake in North Dakota production,” Peterson says. United Grain Corp., an exporter of wheat, corn and soybeans and a part of Mitsui & Co. Inc., is building an $18 million grain elevator near Bucyrus, about 60 miles south of Dickinson. It will be capable of storing 1 million bushels of grain, and Tony Flagg, United Grain President, expects to be able to load 25 to 30 shuttle trains annually. Mitsui also is building new elevators at Conrad and Culbertson in Montana, Flagg says. The company already runs a grain elevator west of Billings, Mont., and United Grain operates an export facility in Vancouver, Wash. The new elevator will give North Dakota farmers another option for selling their grain and could improve the prices they receive, Flagg says.

Crystal union members picket board members

I CROOKSTON, Minn. – As the American Crystal Sugar lockout drags into its 13th month, union members are taking the fight to the doorstep of the company’s directors. Locked-out workers demonstrated in front of the homes of Crystal directors last week, in a bid to drive home the lockout’s human toll. “We can’t let board members live in ivory towers when it’s under their control,” says Todd Anderson, an AFL-CIO leader who is helping coordinate the demonstrations. “In the morning and in the evening, they should have to look a locked-out worker in the face.” Workers are gathering in groups of two to six in multiple locations to begin and end the work day, Anderson says. He adds that the demonstrations are not meant to overwhelm neighborhoods with protests or picket lines. “It’s more of a vigil,” he

Mediation service available for disaster assistance

I BISMARCK, N.D. – North Dakota Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring says the North Dakota Mediation Service can help eligible North Dakota farmers and ranchers deal with the necessary paperwork for newly announced, federal disaster assistance. Producers can contact their local FSA office to learn more about these loans and their eligibility and can call NDMS at 800-6424752 for additional assistance. Producers have eight months to apply for an FSA emergency loan. Goehring says the Farm and Ranch Disaster Relief Loan Program through the Bank of North Dakota is again available for farmers and ranchers in drought emergency areas.

NBA addresses commitment to bison genetics

I WESTMINSTER, COLO. – New informational materials

available from the National Bison Association set the record straight regarding the presence of cattle genetics in bison herds in the United States. A new fact sheet titled “What’s all the Bull About Crossing Bison and Beef?” explains the commitment that today’s ranchers have to the integrity of bison genetics and also provides information regarding events that occurred as bison teetered on the brink of extinction in the late 1800s. As explained in the new fact sheet, DNA tests on more than 30,000 bison conducted by Texas A&M University in recent years have found evidence of cattle genetics in roughly 6 percent of the animals tested. The traces of cattle genetics in some bison are largely the result of a brief experiment conducted by five ranchers who helped gather up the remnants of the once-vast bison herds in the late 1800s, according to the fact sheet. “Some of those ranchers experimented briefly with crossing bison with cattle in the hope of creating a

hearty crossbreed. They discovered instead that the crossbred animals were highly infertile, had problems calving and generally performed poorly,” the fact sheet notes. Dave Carter, executive director of the National Bison Association, says the new educational materials were developed to clear up confusion for bison consumers. “Mother Nature spent thousands of years perfecting this animal to be an integral part of the environment and the diet of the people of North America. Our association’s code of ethics explicitly prohibits members from crossbreeding bison with other species because we know that bison should be bison.”

USDA designates 7 ND counties as disaster areas

I WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Agriculture has designated seven counties in North Dakota as primary natural disaster areas because of damages and losses caused by the recent drought. The counties are Barnes, Grand Forks, Nelson, Trail, Cass, Griggs and Steele. “Our hearts go out to those North Dakota farmers and ranchers affected by the recent natural disasters,” says U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. “President Obama and I are committed to ensuring that agriculture remains a bright spot in our nation’s economy by sustaining the successes of America’s farmers, ranchers and rural communities through these difficult times. We’re also telling North Dakota producers that USDA stands with you and your communities when severe weather and natural disasters threaten to disrupt your livelihood.” Farmers and ranchers in some counties in North Dakota also qualify for natural disaster assistance because their counties are contiguous. Those counties includes Benson, LaMoure, Richland, Eddy, Ramsey, Stutsman, Foster, Ransom and Walsh. Farmers and ranchers in Clay, Marshall, Norman and Polk counties in Minnesota also qualify for natural disaster assistance because their counties are contiguous.

USDA: Sick cows not slaughtered for food NATIONAL NEWS

Investigation continues into inhumane treatment allegations at Calif. slaughterhouse I

By Tracie Cone Associated Press

FRESNO, Calif. — Federal investigators probing a slaughterhouse after an undercover video showed inhumane treatment of cows said Aug. 31 that there is no evidence that sick animals entered the food supply. A spokesman for the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that a team of investigators at Central Valley

AGWEEK / Monday, September 10, 2012 – PAGE 9

Meat Co. in Hanford found that no food safety violations occurred, though an investigation into inhumane handling of animals continues. “The USDA team conducting the Central Valley Meat investigation has concluded there is no evidence to support the allegation that a downer cow was slaughtered and entered the food supply, and that no food safety violation occurred as a result,” says Al Almanza, administrator of the Food Safety and Inspection Service. The USDA closed the plant for a week this month after an undercover video shot by Compassion Over Killing showed downed animals being repeatedly kicked, shocked, shot and pulled by the tails by workers trying to get them to stand. Executive Director Erica Meier says she is unsure what to make of USDA’s decision. “The video is clear and experts agree: Cows who were too sick or weak

to stand up were egregiously abused,” Meier says. “These animals were excessively shocked and grabbed by their tails in a desperate attempt to get them to walk to the slaughter line. Such treatment is not only cruel but a violation of federal animal handling regulations put in place for welfare concerns, as well as food safety concerns.” Outrage over cruelty shown in the video was swift as McDonalds Corp. and In-N-Out Burger cancelled purchasing agreements along with the federal government, which bought 21 million pounds of meat from the company last year for the national school lunch program and other nutrition programs. USDA’s findings mean the potential for a nationwide recall no longer is a factor. Company officials have been working to implement corrective actions, including quarterly training for workers and more frequent audits.

Video surveillance cameras were installed in the plant last week. “We have been informed that the USDA food safety investigation is now over and there are no food safety issues whatsoever with our product or operations. As a result, we are resuming full operations and production immediately,” the company said in a statement. USDA inspectors on site at slaughterhouses are trained in humane handling and “are expected to take immediate enforcement action” if they observe violations, according to USDA. The video showed workers shocking cows on the face. One worker apparently attempted to suffocate a cow by standing on its muzzle. Some dairy cows were unable to walk or stand, and some had udders so swollen they were unable to keep their legs under them.

The conclusions will almost certainly fuel the debate over whether organic foods are a smart choice for healthier living or a marketing tool that gulls people into overpaying. The organic produce market has grown quickly, up 12 percent to $12.4 billion last year, according to the Organic Trade Association. Organic meat has a smaller share of the market, at $538 million last year, the trade group says. The production of organic food is governed by a raft of regulations that generally prohibit the use of synthetic pesticides, hormones and additives.

goal was to allow people to make informed choices. In the study — known as a metaanalysis, in which previous findings are aggregated, but no new laboratory work is conducted — researchers combined data from 237 studies, examining a wide variety of fruits, vegetables and meats. For four years, they performed statistical analyses looking for signs of health benefits from adding organic foods to the diet. The researchers did not use any outside financing for their research. “I really wanted us to have no perception of bias,” Bravata says. One finding of the study was that organic produce, overall, contained higher levels of phosphorus than conventional produce. But because almost everyone gets adequate phosphorus from a wide variety of foods, the researchers say, the higher levels in the organic produce is unlikely to confer any health benefit. The organic produce also contained more compounds known as phenols, believed to help prevent cancer, than conventional produce. While the difference was statistically significant, the size of the difference varied widely from study to study, and the data was based on the testing of small numbers of samples. “I interpret that result with caution,” Bravata says. Other variables, like ripeness, had a greater influence on nutrient content. Thus, a lush peach grown with the use of pesticides could easily contain more vitamins than an unripe organic one. The study’s conclusions about pesticides did seem likely to please organic food customers. Overall, the Stanford researchers concluded that 38 percent of conventional produce tested in the studies contained detectable residues, compared with 7 percent for the or-

ganic produce. (Even produce grown organically can be tainted by pesticides wafting over from a neighboring field or during processing and transport.) They also noted a couple of studies that showed children who ate organic produce had fewer pesticide fragments in their urine.

Advantages of organic meat and produce

Researchers compare with conventional foods I

By Kenneth Chang

New York Times News Service

Does an organic strawberry contain more vitamin C than a conventional one? Maybe — or maybe not. Stanford University scientists have weighed in on the “maybe not” side of the debate after an extensive examination of four decades of research comparing organic and conventional foods. They concluded that fruits and vegetables labeled organic were, on average, no more nutritious than their conventional counterparts, which tend to be far less expensive. Nor were they any less likely to be contaminated by dangerous bacteria such E. coli. The researchers also found no obvious health advantages to eating organic meats. Conventional fruits and vegetables did have more pesticide residue, but the levels were almost always under the allowed safety limits, the scientists says. The Environmental Protection Agency sets the limits at levels it says do not harm humans. “When we began this project, we thought that there would likely be some findings that would support the superiority of organics over conventional food,” says Dena Bravata, a senior affiliate with Stanford’s Center for Health Policy and the senior author of the paper, which appears in the Annals of Internal Medicine. “I think we were definitely surprised.”

Unlikely switch

The findings seem unlikely to sway many fans of organic food. Advocates for organic farming says the Stanford researchers failed to appreciate the differences they did find between the two types of food — differences that validated the reasons people usually cite for buying organic. Organic produce, as expected, was much less likely to retain traces of pesticides. Organic chicken and pork were less likely to be contaminated by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. “Those are the big motivators for the organic consumer,” says Christine Bushway, executive director of the trade association. The study also found that organic milk contained more omega-3 fatty acids, which are considered beneficial for the heart. “We feel organic food is living up to its promise,” says Sonya Lunder, a senior analyst with the Environmental Working Group, which publishes lists highlighting the fruits and vegetables with the lowest and highest amounts of pesticide residues. The Stanford researchers say that by providing an objective review of the current science of organic foods, their

Based on nutrition

Bravata agrees that people purchase organic food for a variety of reasons — concerns about the effects of pesticides on young children, the environmental impact of large-scale conventional farming and the potential public health threat if antibiotic-resistant bacterial genes jumped to human pathogens. “Those are perfectly valid,” she says. The analysis also did not take factors such as taste into account. But if the choice were based mainly on the hope that organic foods would provide more nutrients, “I would say there is not robust evidence to choose one or the other,” she says. The argument that organic produce is more nutritious “has never been a major driver” in why people choose to pay more, says Lunder, the Environmental Working Group analyst. Rather, the motivation is to reduce exposure to pesticides, especially for pregnant women and their young children. Organic food advocates point to, for example, three studies published last year, by scientists at Columbia University, the University of California, Berkeley and Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan, N.Y. The studies identified pregnant women exposed to higher amounts of pesticides known as organophosphates, then followed their children for years. In elementary school, those children had, on average, IQs several points lower than those of their peers.

COLEMAN, S.D. — Chad Groos, 41, farms two miles north of Coleman, S.D., with his father, Andy, and brothers Eric and Grant. Groos says his family is fortunate this year, compared with those farther south plagued by severe drought. The Grooses raise corn, soybeans and alfalfa. They milk 50 head of cows and run about 250 head of stock cows. They finished planting corn around May 14 and beans around June 1, which proved beneficial in light of the rain pattern they received. “In the end, it was a blessing because it recharged our subsoil in that part of it,” he says. The Grooses typically hope for 160 to 180 bushels of corn, but this year, they’ll be in the 100- to 120-bushel range. Their soil is relatively light. “It seemed like the early-planted corn could do — should do — better,” Groos says. “It was under stress, but not as much as our later-planted corn. I think the early-planted corn that got in mid-April should do fairly well.” The Grooses picked up 3 inches of rain in the first two weeks of August, after July and late June brought little rain.”Hopefully, the soybeans won’t get frosted off like they did last year,” Groos says. He says his family’s dairy is a bit older than many and uses grain raised on its farm, so the dairy doesn’t have the overhead costs of many new operations. “The price of milk is staying up there, but the feed costs are going to be outrageous for these bigger dairies,” Groos says. “It’s going to be a struggle for these larger dairies to get the tonnage for silage corn. Some of this short drought corn is not ‘tonning out.’ It’s a fourth of what it normally would be.” Crop insurance could help bring farmers close to profits, depending on how many bushels a farmer sold early in the year, Groos says. “This spring our marketing guys said to sell early. If this ‘big crop’ came in, we’d be looking at sub-$4 per bushel prices. I think there was a fair amount of corn marketed around $5 because everything was indicating a large crop with the large acreages projected to be planted.”

MDA issues consumer advisory for fresh cilantro

I ST. PAUL – The Minnesota Depart-

ment of Agriculture is alerting consumers to not eat fresh cilantro that was sold at certain stores after routine testing by the department found a sample of the product to be contaminated with Salmonella. MDA is working with the Food and Drug Administration and the state of California regulatory agencies to determine the source of this product. The fresh cilantro was sold in bunches that were shipped to retail stores in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan between July 26 and Aug. 6. A list of stores where the product was sold is available on the MDA website: www. mda.state.mn.us. All retail stores that received this cilantro have been notified to remove this product from store shelves. MDA advises consumers who have purchased the cilantro bunches to not consume them and to throw them out or return them to the store where purchased for a refund. No confirmed illnesses have been reported in association with this cilantro. Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in very young children, frail or elderly people and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy people infected with Salmonella often experience diarrhea, fever and abdominal pain.

Canola yields disappoint REGIONAL NEWS

But price continues to hold up I

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Area canola growers went into this growing season with high hopes for both prices and yield. They got half of what they wanted. “The market did its job. The environment didn’t help as much,” says Kevin Waslaski, a Langdon, N.D., farmer and president of the Northern Plains Canola Growers Association. Canola harvest is wrapping up on the Northern Plains and producers say the crop didn’t yield as well as expected. Canola was planted in good order this spring, which encouraged expectations for good yields. But many fields apparently suffered more from dry, hot weather than anticipated, leading to average or below-average yields, growers say. Crop disease, particularly aster yellows, also contributed to poorer-thanexpected yields. Aster yellows, a virus-like disease that usually appears as a yellow discoloration of leaves, is difficult to treat with insecticides, according to information from North Dakota State University. Despite disappointing yields, canola’s price remains strong at about 26 cents per pound. That compares with about 22 cents per pound a year ago and 22.5 cents per pound two years ago. “We like the price,” Waslaski says.

REGIONAL NEWS Minnesota Zoo’s moose get waterbeds for research

I APPLE VALLEY, Minn. – The moose at Minnesota Zoo now have waterbeds as part of a research project on the impact of heat stress. Zoo conservation biologist Nick McCann says moose had been on mats topped with straw in the zoo holding area. “The rubber mats may be insulating the moose. They may not allow heat to be conducted away from their bodies to the ground below,” McCann says. “One of the questions we will ask in this study is whether the waterbed will be better than the rubber mat at conducting the heat because water is an excellent conductor of heat.” Two of the zoo’s five holding area stalls were outfitted with the large waterbeds to fit the moose. The Minnesota Zoo moose will be rotated through the holding area stalls each day, with data collected from animals on waterbeds and on rubber mats. The study is to determine how the air temperature, bedding surface, humidity, solar radiation and other factors signal to the moose that it is “hot.” Researchers will compare how hot moose are when bedded on the waterbed surface and the rubber mats. – Agweek Wire Reports

6 people killed in 2011 explosion

By Bill Draper

Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Family members of four people killed in a grain elevator explosion last year in northeast Kansas are suing employees of Bartlett Grain Co., including its current president Bob Knief, less than five months after federal investigators pinned the blame for the blast on the Kansas City, Mo., company. The wrongful death lawsuits were filed Aug. 27 in Jackson County Circuit Court in Missouri on behalf of Bartlett employees Chad Roberts, 20; Ryan Federinko, 21; Curtis Field, 21; and John Burke, 24. They were killed along with two grain inspectors — Travis Keil, 34, and Darrek Klahr, 43 — when the Bartlett elevator exploded Oct. 29, 2011 in Atchison, Kan. “It hurts as bad today as it did then,” Roberts’ stepfather, Kevin Bock, says. “The feelings don’t stop. You learn to work through certain things, but they don’t stop.” Bock, whose wife is suing on behalf of Roberts, says he encouraged the other families to also sue Bartlett after the Occupational Safety and Health Administration issued a report in April saying the grain-dust explosion could have been prevented if the elevator’s operators had addressed hazards known in the industry. “Bartlett Grain’s disregard for the law led to a catastrophic accident and heartbreaking tragedy for the workers who were injured or killed, their families and the agricultural community,” U.S. Labor Secretary Hilda Solis said in April in response to the OSHA report, which sought $406,000 in penalties in

Department of Labor spokesman Scott Allen says the company has contested the citations and fine, and it could take up to a year or more for it to go through the administrative review process. Bartlett officials have called the OSHA findings flawed and vowed to fight the claims. When contacted for comment on the lawsuits, Bartlett provided the same statement it sent out in April criticizing OSHA’s report, though it added a paragraph saying it still believes its employees acted reasonably at all times prior to the explosion.

Livestock producers affected by disasters urged to keep good records

I WASHINGTON – U.S. Department of Agriculture Farm

Service Agency Administrator Juan M. Garcia urges livestock producers affected by natural disasters such as Hurricane Isaac to keep thorough records of their livestock and feed losses, including additional expenses for such things as feed purchases because of lost supplies. “There are extraordinary circumstances caused by a variety of disasters from fires in the west, floods in Florida, Hurricane Isaac in the Gulf region, storms in the Mid-Atlantic and drought and heat affecting the heartland,” Garcia says. “Each of these events is causing economic consequences for ranchers and producers including cattle, sheep and dairy operations, beekeepers and farmraised fish, and poultry producers.” FSA recommends that owners and producers record all pertinent information of natural disaster consequences: documentation of the number and kind of livestock that have died, supplemented if possible by photographs or video records of ownership and losses; dates of death supported by birth recordings or purchase receipts; costs of transporting livestock to safer grounds or to move animals to new pastures; and feed purchases if supplies or grazing pastures are destroyed.

Technology uses lights, action and camera to scrutinize fresh produce

I BELTSVILLE, Md. – High-tech tactics to carefully examine apples and other fresh produce items as they travel along packinghouse conveyor belts will help ensure quality and safety. U.S. Department of Agriculture scientists in Beltsville, Md., have developed and patented an experimental, cuttingedge optical scanning system that would use two different kinds of lighting, a sophisticated camera and other pieces of equipment to scrutinize produce-section favorites while they still are at the packinghouse. The system would provide, in a single image, evidence of certain kinds of defects or contaminants, according to biophysicist Moon S. Kim with USDA’s Agricultural Research Service. Defects could include cuts and bruises. Contaminants might include specks of fertilizer from orchard or field soil. Kim, ARS agricultural engineers Yud-Ren Chen and Kuanglin Chao, and ARS biomedical engineer Alan M. Lefcourt received a patent in 2010 for their automated approach to detecting defects and contaminants on the exterior of fresh produce or other items. The scientists

fice issued a preliminary report in October calling the explosion an accident and saying there was no evidence of criminal activity. The OSHA report, though, came down much harder on the grain company. Among the willful violations, OSHA alleged Bartlett Grain allowed grain dust, which is nine times as explosive as coal dust, to accumulate and used compressed air to remove dust without first shutting down ignition sources. OSHA defines a willful violation as one committed with intentional knowing or voluntary disregard for the law’s requirements or with plain indifference to worker safety and health. The serious violations, defined as those with a substantial probability of death or serious physical harm, include claims that there was a lack of preventative maintenance and that the housekeeping program was deficient because it didn’t prevent grain dust accumulations. Bock says the company was helpful to the families of the victims, but eventually the stream of communication from Bartlett ran dry. He says he hasn’t heard anything from the company since receiving a letter in late June informing families of a memorial the company plans to establish overlooking the Missouri River and the grain elevator in Atchison. Bock criticizes the company for not working with the families on the memorial, noting that the elevator isn’t a welcome sight for people who lost loved ones there. “One thing I can say for the families, especially the three families that live in Atchison, is none of them like the location,” Bock says. “They don’t want to look over at Bartlett when they see this memorial. They’re not going to visit a memorial where they have to look over at that elevator.”

work in the ARS Environmental Microbial and Food Safety Research Laboratory at Beltsville. The team’s system harnesses the capabilities of a type of camera known as a highspeed multispectral/hyperspectral line-scanner. Positioned above a conveyor belt, the scanner captures images of each fast-moving item, such as an apple. Each apple is exposed simultaneously to ultraviolet light from a UV fluorescent lamp and near infra-red light from a halogen lamp. The near infrared light that bounces off the apple can be captured by a spectrograph and analyzed for tell-tale patterns of defects, while the UV light beamed on the apple can disclose the whereabouts of contaminants. The system combines information from both forms of illumination into a single image with contaminant and defect results. When linked to a sorting machine, the system can signal the sorter to separate the problem apples from others. At present, the system offers, at the rate of about three to four apples per second, a 180-degree view of each apple’s exterior, Kim reports. The scientists are working to improve the process so it will provide a 360degree whole-surface view for thorough inspection.

Durum: 2 hits, 1 miss REGIONAL NEWS

Yields and quality mostly OK; prices come up short

I

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Area durum producers appear to have gone two for three this growing season. Yields, on balance, are OK. Quality generally is good. But prices are disappointing. “I think it’s a pretty good crop,” says Ryan Davidson, a Tioga, N.D., farmer. “Yields are a mixed bag, but across the board, we’ll come up with a pretty nice average. And I’d say overall it’s been our best quality year since 2007.” Weak prices are the big drawback, he and others say. The area’s durum harvest will be nearly finished by early September, weather permitting. Though the summer was hot and generally dry, some durum fields received timely rains. Good subsoil moisture — a result of heavy rains that hurt durum last year — also benefitted the crop this year, growers say. Area farmers report yields of 25 to 60 bushels per acre. North Dakota typically accounts for more than half of the nation’s production of durum, which is used to make pasta. The crop is most popular in northewest

North Dakota. The state averaged 25.5 bushels of durum per acre in 2011, when excess moisture hurt the crop, and 37.5 bushels per acre in 2010. This year’s average yield is expected to be roughly the same as last year, possibly a little higher. Montana ranks second in production, concentrated in the northeast part of the state. The state averaged 28 bushels of durum per acre in 2011 and 34 in 2010. Gordon Stoner, a durum farmer in Outlook, Mont., finished harvesting his durum on Aug. 29. He thinks durum in his area will yield about 30 bushels per acre, which he describes as average or slightly above. Though durum quality generally is good, some areas were hit with scab, a crop disease that can hurt both yields and quality, growers say. “There’s more than we expected,” says Bruce Verlinde, a Noonan, N.D., farmer.

Price considerations

Durum carries the risk of big discounts, or price reductions as a result of poor quality. That makes the crop riskier to grow than spring wheat, so farmers typically want a higher price for durum to raise it. But durum currently is fetching about 60 cents less per bushel than spring wheat at area grain elevators surveyed weekly by Agweek. Farmers will be reluctant to plant durum next spring unless the crop’s price fetches a premium to

spring wheat, says Larry Neubauer, a Bottineau, N.D., farmer. Area durum growers went into the growing season saying that durum prices were too low in comparison with other competing crops. Those complaints continue this fall. Keith Deutsch, a Plaza, N.D., farmer and president of the U.S. Durum Growers Association, notes that durum acreage has been declining for years. He doubts the decline will end unless farmers receive what think they is an adequate price for durum. Davidson says he thinks farmers will continue to grow durum in agronomically well-suited areas, even if durum prices continue to lag. But farmers elsewhere likely will turn away from the crop if durum prices don’t improve, he says. Many factors, including the level of this year’s U.S. corn and soybean prices, will influence the price of durum and competing crops at planting time next spring. “It will be interesting to see what happens over the next six to eight months,” Davidson says. Stoner says durum fits well into his crop rotation and that he expects to continue raising it. He typically stores his durum when prices are low and sells it later at a higher price. “Through the years, it (durum) has been pretty good to me,” Stoner says.

Season of stress

Factors vary by crop, location and more

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Stress is inevitable in farming, especially during harvest. This harvest season is bringing both more and less stress than usual. On one hand, most area farmers have a break between harvesting small grains and row crops, a welcome change from recent years. “It’s been an orderly harvest so far,” says Brad Thykeson, a Portland, N.D., farmer and president of the North Dakota Grain Growers Association. At the same time, some agricultural producers are struggling with drought and sky-high commodity prices. Whether this harvest is stressful or not “depends on the kind of farmer you are and where you’re at (geographically),” says Ted Matthews, Morris, Minn.-based director of rural mental health for Minnesota’s Farm Business Management Program. For instance, producers who feed corn to livestock are stressed by high prices for the crop, Matthews

says. Stress levels also vary greatly depending on how individual producers are affected by drought. Some Minnesota farmers will harvest excellent crops, with other producers harvesting very poor ones, Matthews says. Still, this harvest season, at least so far, is preferable to some recent ones in which wet conditions merged the small grains and row harvests into one long blur. On the many days crops or fields were too wet for combining, “We sat and wished we could be out there,” Thykeson says. This year has been different. “It began with the spring. We were able to plant in an orderly fashion and that’s continuing into harvest.” Stress levels could rise, Thykeson and other farmers say. Area producers need fall rains to help recharge soil moisture, but harvest would be delayed and complicated if rain comes at the wrong time.

‘Don’t rush’ during harvest

For now, though, the upcoming row crop harvest promises to be the most orderly and least stressful in several years. Even so, some farmers will be tempted to rush through harvest, Matthews says.

Opening of SD beef processing plant still delayed

Northern Beef Packers to consider alternatives. “We didn’t go as far as saying we’re going to refuse to take the paunch, but we did ask them to continue to explore additional opportunities or options for the paunch,” Sutton says.

Associated Press

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — A long-delayed South Dakota beef processing plant given new life when Korean investors took over in 2009 is without an opening date more than six years after it was first proposed. Land for the $109 million Northern Beef Packers plant in Aberdeen was secured in 2006, but financial issues, lawsuits, local opposition, delinquent property taxes, flooding, an economic downturn and millions of dollars in liens have repeatedly pushed back the opening date. Laure Swanson, Northern Beef Packers’ spokeswoman, says construction of the 420,000-square-foot facility is “pretty much done” but she declined to disclose when operations would begin. The plant on Aberdeen’s south side will initially process about 200 cattle per day, eventually ramping up to 1,500 head per day from the Dakotas, Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota. Initial financing plans called for Brown County to sell $8.5 million in local tax-increment financing (TIF) bonds, which use expected future gains in property values to provide development subsidies. The bonds, later capped at $6.95 million, have all been sold, says county auditor Maxine Fischer. Company officials have said once the TIF money was in hand, the plant could complete construction, work toward its opening and pay off any remaining construction liens. A check of Brown County records on Aug. 29 showed 16 mechanic’s liens totaling about $1.95 million filed against the property since the beginning of the year, says Carol Sherman, register of deeds. Once locally owned, Northern Beef Packers is 41 percent owned by businessman Oshik Song with 69 other Korean investors who each gave at least $500,000 under the federal EB-5 program that encourages foreign investment in exchange for qualifications to se-

Most producers are hardworking and competitive, so they’re eager to finish quickly, he says. “But don’t rush. Take it a little slower,” he says, emphasizing the need for safety. Farm families can be stressed by many things besides harvest. A growing number of farm women have off-farm jobs, which often adds stress, he says. Matthews, who’s worked with farmers and farm families since 1993, says “I’ve never dealt with so many pending divorces.” He says many factors contribute, including rising land values, which increase a farming operation’s net worth and the size of the estate potentially to be divided. It’s hard to tell if this growing season, on balance, is more or less stressful than recent ones. For instance, the South Dakota Rural Helpline has seen little, if any, increase in the number of calls, says Marcie Moran, with Catholic Family Services in Sioux Falls, which operates the helpline. Virtually all of South Dakota is in drought, and parts of southern South Dakota are “extremely dry,” the second worst of five drought categories, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor, a partnership of federal and academic scientists. But some rural areas in South Dakota also were stressed in recent years by heavy rains and widespread flooding, Moran says.

cure permanent residency. Northern Beef Packers plans to use nearly all of each animal, producing both U.S. Department of Agriculture certified meat cuts and offal, which is in high demand in foreign markets. An on-site rendering plant will open later. Cattle will be knocked out and shackled using Temple Grandin humane methods before machinery pulls the hides from the carcasses. The plant’s developers recently asked Brown County commissioners if the county landfill would accept paunch, the partially digested material taken from an animal at the time of slaughter. Residents voiced concerns about the potentially unpleasant odor from the waste, prompting the commission to ask

In 2006, Aberdeen livestock businessman Dennis Hellwig became the largest investor in Northern Beef Packers in response to then Gov. Mike Rounds’ South Dakota Certified Beef initiative. Rounds hoped to get the state’s ranchers premium prices by allowing consumers to track animals from birth, through a feedlot and to a meatpacking plant. But just as construction of the plant was about to begin, opponents forced a public referendum on the TIF bond plan. Voters gave their thumbs up, but then heavy spring rains brought severe flooding, prompting more delays. Northern Beef Packers meanwhile used EB-5 to attract investors and spur the start of construction, and concrete was poured for the roads and basement. But by 2008, the company began falling behind on its property taxes, mechanics’ liens started piling up and the economic downturn dried up financing options. Hellwig stepped down as general partner when the Korean investors asked to buy out his shares. The new owners recruited another round of EB-5 investors, but the new investment fund provided loan money instead of equity shares in the company. After the plant starts processing cattle, the company will be able to tap into a state economic development finance authority and a USDA Rural Development guaranteed loan. Sutton says the commission is anxious for the plant to begin processing beef. “We’re excited to get the plant up and running,” he says. “It’ll have a real substantial positive impact on our whole northeast region.”

The corn crop

By Debra Levey Larson

URBANA, Ill. — The pace of consumption of U.S. corn has been slowing, as evidenced by small weekly exports, smaller weekly estimates of ethanol production, declining cattle feedlot placements, and increased slaughter of dairy cows and the hog breeding herd. The extent of rationing required in the current marketing year that has just begun, however, is still not clear since the size of the 2012 crop is not yet known, says Darrel Good, University of Illinois agricultural economist. “The average U.S. corn yield will obviously be the most important factor in determining crop size, but the magnitude of acreage harvested for grain will also influence crop size,” Good says. He says the likely magnitude of harvested acreage starts with the magnitude of planted acres. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service June acreage report estimated corn acreage planted for all purposes this year at 96.4 million acres. “History suggests that the final acreage estimate will deviate, at least slightly, from this estimate,” Good says. “For example, in the previous 10 years, the final estimate of planted acres deviated by as little as 37,000 to as much as 1.345 million acres from the June estimate.” The positive deviations (four) averaged 293,000 acres and the negative deviations (six) averaged 650,000 acres. The recently released USDA Farm Service Agency report of planted acreage of corn in 2012 by those participating in government programs has been used to judge the potential change

The corn for grain in a given year is equal to outlier in the pattern of an increase in planted acreage minus acreage haracreage not harvested for grain in recent dry years was 1983.

Acreage harvested for silage averaged about 9.2 mil- cline in planted acreage in response to government programs aimed at reduclion acres in the 1970s and about 7.6 ing the corn surplus, according to Good. million acres in the 1980s. That acreage

In 2012

“We are anticipating that due to the severity of this year’s drought, the difference between planted acreage and acreage harvested for grain will be at least as large as in 1980, 1988 and 2002,” Good says. “Differences in those years averaged 10 million acres, in a range of 9.47 to 11.1 million acres. If planted acreage was also slightly less than the NASS June estimate, that experience points to acreage harvested for grain of about 86 million, nearly 1.4 million less than the June NASS estimate.” Under this acreage scenario, Good says a national average corn yield near the August forecast of 123.4 bushels would result in a crop near 10.6 billion bushels. “If the average yield is also four to five bushels lower than the August forecast, as we suspect, the crop may be near 10.2 billion bushels, almost 600 million bushels less than the NASS August forecast,” Good says. “A crop of that size would require a year-over-year decline in consumption of U.S. corn of nearly 1.8 billion bushels, or about 14 percent. “Corn prices would likely have to remain high for an extended period in order to motivate such a large decline in consumption,” Good says. “The USDA’s Sept. 12 crop production report will provide an important update on the likely magnitude of harvested acreage, yield, and production, and bring the rationing question into clearer focus.” Editor’s note: Larson is a news and public affairs specialist for the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois in Urbana.

Harvest in full swing

INNIPEG, Manitoba — Crops are ripe across the prairies. The only places not combining are those getting rain. Canola yields continue to disappoint.

Canola futures consolidate

AGWEEK / Monday, September 10, 2012 – PAGE 19

Canola futures continue to consolidate near contract highs as a result of ongoing spillover support from soybeans. Steady farmer selling has tempered the upside as deliveries have surged to 300,000 metric tons per week. Commercial stocks are down to pipeline levels, keeping the basis strong in the short term. But expect basis levels to weaken as harvest progresses over the next couple weeks. The export pace has been rather slow in the past couple weeks and will only improve in the last half of September. Don’t expect the market to trade significantly higher in the next month. Soymeal futures are making new contract highs, which has been the main factor driving the oilseed complex. The U.S. soybean harvest will get under way later in September and farmers will be aggressive sellers at current levels. We may see the soybean market edge higher in the short term, but the drought has not affected beans as much as the corn crop. We expect South American soybean acres to increase by 8 to 12 percent this fall. The speculative funds have a large, long position in soybeans and

canola. This is a risk moving forward as harvest pressure may spur on profit taking or long liquidation. The soybean market has likely overextended and has incorporated a risk premium because of the uncertainty in production. If soybean yields come in larger than expected, the market will be vulnerable to the downside.

Spring wheat slow to move higher

December Minneapolis spring wheat futures have been trading in a range of $9 to $9.62 since early August. The U.S. hard red spring wheat harvest is basically finished and Western Canada is 40 percent complete. Deliveries into the elevator system are starting to

increase. Basis levels are under pressure and commercial stocks are building. Strength in corn has lead wheat higher throughout the summer months. But the corn harvest is moving into full swing and producers are active sellers at current levels. Despite the tight fundamental structure for corn, we expect corn futures to grind lower in the short term. The market will be sensitive to yield reports during the next month, which will increase volatility. Fresh export interest is rather quiet because North American values are stronger than other major competitors. At this time, traders continue to watch Russian export policy. Government officials have stated they will not impose export controls, but there is still a fair amount of uncertainty.

Barley prices ratchet higher

Cash barley values in southern Alberta moved up $5 per metric ton to $260 last week. We continue to hear of additional sales to the Southern U.S. states, which has underpinned domestic cash values. Offshore movement is quiet, with Black Sea origin trading at a discount to fob offers off the west coast. Saudi Arabia, which is the largest importer, has its nearby requirements covered and likely will step forward again in late fall after the corn harvest.


Harvest progress pressures grains MARKETS

Wheat: Russia concerns in market

Wheat traded with little fanfare to start the short week last week, but trade with enthusiasm late in the week. Russia was back in the news helping give wheat some fire. But for the week ending Sept. 6, wheat saw little changes as December Minneapolis gained 1.25 cents, December Chicago improved by 2.5 cents and December Kansas City improved 5.5 cents. Wheat opened the short week with decent gains, with strength coming from soybeans and corn. But once soybeans started to retreat, it did not take wheat long to slip lower, as well. Light support was a result of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s export inspections report, which has wheat shipments stronger than expected. But the sell off in soybeans combined with news that not only did Russia not implement an export ban, but it reported a sale of 240,000 metric tons of wheat to Egypt. This shows how eager Russia is to sell wheat. Traders still are expecting Russia to implement some sort of export reduction plan, but this certainly has to make them question when that will happen. For sure, Russia now has 240,000 metric tons less wheat in stocks and is much closer to needing to implement the ban. The Sept. 5 session opened and traded lower with early selling pressure as a result of carryover selling from a lower corn and soybean complex. Selling also was tied to pressure from improving weather conditions. Hurricane Isaac brought in much-needed rain into much of the Delta regions of the U.S., as well as into parts of the Southern Plains (but not as much to the Plains). This will help replenish soil moisture levels just as most producers were preparing to plant winter wheat. Wheat pushed sharply higher Sept. 6, retaking the leader role. Wheat was supported by news Egypt once again bought wheat. Egypt bought 480,000 metric tons of wheat from Russia (300,000 metric tons), Romania (120,000 metric tons), and Ukraine (55,000 metric tons). The price of wheat this time was much higher, as the Black Sea region seems to be getting a little smarter and at least increasing its price somewhat to get close to the world price of wheat. This should have pressured wheat, but instead traders are convinced it will lead to wheat supplies declining much faster than expected in the Black Sea region and ultimately force importers to come to the U.S. As of Sept. 2, spring wheat harvest was estimated at 95 percent, compared with 89 percent the previous week and 72 percent for the five-year average.

Corn: yield reports

Corn continued to trade in a sideways pattern and is unchanged from where it was one month ago. The futures now are looking to yield reports for direction, while the earlier harvested fields have been disappointing. The harvest is young, but progress is starting to pick up. For the week ending Sept. 6, December corn was off 1.25 cents. Corn traded sharply higher early Sept. 6 with spillover support from the soybean market. Additional support came from disappointing yield results in the early harvested crop. Japan bought 180,000 metric tons of U.S. corn, but it is for 2013 to 2014 crop year. Buying interest moved to the sidelines on Sept. 5 and the market closed 15 cents lower. Profit taking and technical selling pressured the market. Estimates were that the crop condition report would remain unchanged from the previous week and it did, along with 10 percent of the crop harvested. The cash market also has softened as harvest is under way. Corn traded with small losses in the overnight Sept. 6, but firmed as the day moved along and closed with 7 cent gains. Buying interest resurfaced after hitting support levels. USDA also announced that private exporters sold 217,424 metric tons of U.S. corn to an un-

known destination for the 2012 to 2013 and 2013 to 2014 marketing years. A private firm released its yield estimate Sept. 7 at 121.4 bushels per acre versus last month’s USDA number of 123.4 bushels per acre. Ethanol production for the week ending Aug. 31 averaged 829,000 barrels per day. This is up 1.2 percent versus the previous week, but down 7.5 percent versus last year. Total ethanol production for the week was 5.8 million barrels versus 5.73 the previous week. Corn used in production for the week ending Aug. 31 is estimated at 88.3 million bushels. The cumulative corn used for ethanol production for this crop year is 4.96 billion bushels, compared with 5 billion USDA estimated for 2011 to 2012. Stocks as of Aug. 31 were 18.73 million barrels, which is up 1.3 percent versus the previous week and up 9.7 percent versus last year. Crop conditions had 22 percent of the crop rated as good to excellent, 26 percent fair and 52 percent poor to very poor. Corn that is dented was 86 percent, compared with 65 percent one year ago and a five-year average of 63 percent. Corn that was mature was 41 percent, compared with 15 percent one year ago and a five-year average of 16 percent. Corn that was harvested was 10 percent, compared with 3 percent one year ago and a five-year average of 3 percent.

Soybeans slip lower

Soybeans struggled last week, actually losing ground for the first time in about six weeks (week of July 30). For the week ending Sept. 6, November soybeans were down 9.5 cents. Soybeans were higher early on Sept. 4, setting a new record high overnight at $17.89. Weather concerns supported the market, as recent temperatures from South Dakota to Nebraska have been near 100 degrees with little rainfall. Demand out of China remains strong, as the U.S. will remain the lone supplier until South America’s harvest in early 2013. Crop conditions released Sept. 4 were expected to be stable. Soybeans rated good to excellent stayed at 30 percent, while poor to very poor fell 1 percent. Commercial selling on Sept. 5 combined with noncommercial long-liquidation to pressure the market. Ideas that recent rainfall and lower temperatures may have been beneficial to soybeans added to the negative tone. Strong end-user demand and poor reports on pod-filling should provide support, but profit taking could continue as the market remains slightly overbought. Technical selling continued Sept. 6, pushing soybeans lower for another session. A private commercial trading company revised its yield and projection estimates higher, putting some pressure on the market. Throughout the day, strength in the corn and wheat spilled over to soybeans to support the market. Weakness in the U.S. dollar and sharp gains in the Dow Jones Industrial Average provided additional support, but a lack of interest from commercial and noncommercial traders ultimately led to a lower close. Soybeans dropping leaves as of Sept. 2 was at 19 percent, compared with 8 percent the previous week and the five-year average of 9 percent. USDA’s weekly

crop condition rating report estimated the U.S. soybean crop at 30 percent good to excellent, 33 percent fair and 37 percent poor to very poor, which was unchanged from the previous week.

Barley

As of Sept. 2, 89 percent of the nation’s barley was harvested, compared with 79 percent the previous week and 71 percent for the five-year average.

Durum

USDA reported no durum export inspections (shipments) for the week ending Aug. 31. Durum export sales pace was estimated at 300,000 bushels. This brings the year-to-date export sales total to 9 million bushels, compared with 10.7 million for last year at this time. As of Sept. 2, 92 percent of North Dakota’s durum crop was harvested, compared with 81 percent the previous week and 48 percent for the five-year average. The Sept. 6 cash bids for milling quality durum were at $8 per bushel in Berthold, N.D., while Dickinson, N.D., bids were at $8.05.

Canola

Canola futures on the Winnipeg, Manitoba, exchange closed the week ending Sept. 6 with more than $2 (Canadian) gains. Canola strength came from a strong export market. Commercial firms were aggressive buyers of canola in an attempt to cover export demand. Rumors are circulating that China is looking at switching some of its vegetable oil demand to canola and that helped push canola higher. Reports of declining yields as harvest advances added support. As of Sept. 2, 91 percent of North Dakota’s canola crop was harvested, compared with 71 percent the previous week and 49 percent for the five-year average. Sept. 6 cash canola bids in Velva, N.D., were at $28.81 per hundredweight.

Dry beans

For the week ending Sept. 2, the following states were reporting dry bean conditions: North Dakota: 51 percent good to excellent, 33 percent fair 16 percent poor to very poor, a decrease of 3 percent from the previous week, 26 percent was harvested, compared with 3 percent for the five-year average; Minnesota: 66 percent good to excellent, 27 percent fair and 7 percent poor to very poor, a 1 percent increase from the previous week, 21 percent was harvested, compared with 7 percent for the five-year average; Nebraska: 45 percent good to excellent, 46 percent fair and 9 percent poor to very poor, an increase of 2 percent, 18 percent was dropping leaves, compared with 19 percent for the five-year average; Idaho: 18 percent harvested, compared with 28 percent for the five-year average; and Michigan: 48 percent good to excellent, 30 percent fair and 22 percent poor to very poor, a decrease of 2 percent from the previous week, 24 percent was dropping leaves, compared with 21 percent for the five-year average.

Sunflowers

As of Sept. 2, North Dakota’s sunflower crop had 50 percent bracts turning yellow, compared with 26 percent for the previous week and 20 percent for the fiveyear average. North Dakota’s sunflower condition report estimated the crop at 64 percent good to excellent, 31 percent fair and 5 percent poor, a decrease of 1 percent. Sept. 6 cash sunflower bids in Fargo, N.D., were at $28.20 per hundredweight.

Butler Machinery Co.

Butler Machinery Co., your Caterpillar dealer for North and South Dakota and Clay County, Minn., has been serving the industry for more than 55 years. Butler Machinery provides sales, rental, parts and service for many different industries and represents many manufacturers including Caterpillar, Challenger, Lexion, RoGator and TerraGator. Butler Machinery started in 1955 when Francis J. Butler, a former Grand Forks, N.D., contractor, was selected to be a Caterpillar dealer. As a contractor, Francis knew the necessity for the dealership to provide the best in equipment and product support. Francis’s vision required capable, well-trained management and associates, together with the most advanced tools, technology and facilities available. Three generations of the Butler family have maintained this vision. Matt Butler served as CEO from 1969 to 1998. Dan Butler has served as president since 1998. Francis began with modest stores in Grand Forks and Fargo, providing service in eastern North Dakota and Clay County, Minn. A facility on Main Street in Fargo was built in 1957 and replaced with the current building on Interstate 29 in 1986. In 1964, Butler expanded into western North Dakota with the purchase of Shultz Machinery Co. and its stores in Minot and Bismarck. In December 1988, Butler acquired the assets of Kearns Machinery Co. in Sioux Falls, Rapid City and Aberdeen, S.D. The company now serves customers throughout North and South Dakota. In March of 1999, a new store opened in Jamestown, N.D. BMC has committed to providing the best possible sales and service not only in heavy equipment, but also in agricultural equipment. BMC opened a new training facility and corporate headquarters in Fargo in January 2000. In May 2005, a new store was opened in Pierre, S.D., emphasizing ag equipment and product support for ag customers. Butler Machinery added another lo-

In 2009, a new store was opened in Dickinson, N.D. The Dickinson store focuses on both the heavy construction and agricultural markets. Butler Machinery added another location, in Hoople, N.D., in 2010. Formerly Hurtt Equipment Inc., the Hoople location is primarily focused on ag

equipment. In 2012, Butler constructed its 13th location in Huron, S.D. There are now 13 Butler Machinery locations, with a 14th planned to open in the spring of 2013 in Devils Lake, N.D., to further assist our customers.

NDSU demonstrations featured at Big Iron !

NDSU Agriculture Communication

The 2012 Big Iron Farm Show set for Sept. 11 through 13 in West Fargo, will include presentations and demonstrations by North Dakota State University researchers and scientists on tillage, soil health, agricultural robotics and a quarter-scale student tractor. The daily field demonstrations are scheduled from 1 to 3 p.m. south of the Big Iron exhibit area. The demonstrations will begin with brief educational presentations. One part of the daily field demonstrations will focus on NDSU’s newly formed soil health initiative. Six NDSU researchers and scientists who conduct soil health research and Extension Service efforts will use a soil pit as an aid to discuss the importance of soils to North Dakota’s vitality. They will discuss crop and range management strategies land managers can use in adapting to changes in climate, cropping systems and environmental situations. Those involved in the soil health initiative include Ann-Marie Fortuna, research soil health assistant professor; Abbey Wick, extension soil health assistant professor; Chris Augustin, area extension soil health specialist; Naeem Kalwar, area extension soil health specialist; Jasper Teboh, soil scientist; and Ben Geaumont, wildlife and range science research assistant professor.

Tillage

In another part of the daily presentations, Jodi Dejong-Hughes, University of Minnesota regional extension educator, will discuss shallow-tillage options for various crop management systems. Dejong-Hughes will describe situations when shallow tillage is beneficial and other situations when it might be harmful to crop production. NDSU and University of Minnesota Extension Service personnel are collaborating with tillage equipment companies to feature five types of shallow-tillage machines to help explain recommended tillage practices. Each tillage equipment company exhibiting at Big Iron has been invited to demonstrate a shallow-tillage machine immediately after the educational presentation.

Robotics

The third part of the session will be presentations and demonstrations on

facilities for an operator and is programmed to operate autonomously in fields using radio and laser signals. Anderson will demonstrate how the tractor is programmed to know its position and operate within field boundaries. He also will demonstrate the “follow me” mode of the tractor. In this case, a tractor will follow a pickup to the field or another tractor in the field.

year in September, or at least by the end of the calendar year. “I will have attended the Republican and Democratic national conventions and will hope to convey what I might learn there about the prospects for the Hagstrom farm bill and the elections in rural America,” Hagstrom says. Congress is under much more budget pressure in 2012 than it was for the 2008 farm bill, Hagstrom says. “There’s no extra money for anything,” he says. “The bill is much more of a regional debate and a debate between traditionalists, who want to provide programs for farmers and hungry people on one side, and those whose top priority is to reduce the federal deficit and reduce government spending.”

Exhibitor ranked No. 1

Choice Financial, one of many exhibitors at this year’s Big Iron Farm Show, recently was ranked the No. 1 farm lender in North Dakota in the American Bankers Association Top 100 Farm Lenders by Dollar Volume. As a leader in agribusiness banking with $212 million in total farm loans in 2011, Choice Financial ranked 59th in the nation. “It’s our honor to support the needs of the farm producers in the communities we serve,” says Brian Johnson, Choice Financial CEO. “We are proud of our agricultural heritage, and this distinction demonstrates our commitment to preserving the livelihood of farm producers in our state.” Choice Financial has nine locations in North Dakota serving the communities of Fargo, West Fargo, Grand Forks, Grafton, Langdon, Walhalla, Petersburg and Goodrich. Telpro Inc., also will exhibit at the 32nd annual Big Iron Farm Show event, promoting its overhead drill technology dubbed Drillrite and developed with the help of the University of California San Francisco and the University of California Berkeley Department of Ergonomics. These are just a few in a long list of exhibitors showcasing products and services at this year’s Big Iron Farm Show. — Agweek Staff report

Health screening services will be available from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day

at the Horticulture Building on the Red River Valley Fairgrounds in West Fargo. Learn about hearing loss, injury rehabilitation and organ donation. Save a life by donating blood or plasma. Know your health indicators through cholesterol and glucose screenings. Want to prevent heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes? The North Dakota State University College of Pharmacy, Nursing and Allied Science is offering cholesterol, glucose and blood pressure screenings during the Big Iron Farm Show. Fourth-year pharmacy students perform the screenings. Blood pressure screenings are free, a glucose

screening is $5 and a cholesterol screening is $15. Screening results are immediate, and participants are counseled on steps they can take toward a healthy lifestyle. Stop by for convenient and affordable care. The Minnesota State University Moorhead speech-language-hearing department, in partnership with the FM Sertoma Club, will be conducting free hearing screenings in their portable audio booth. Many other services will be available for Big Iron Farm Show visitors this year, including: ! The Lions Eye Bank of North

Dakota will provide free information about eye tissue donation. Learn about the gift of eye donation and how you can become a donor. ! The North Dakota Division of Vocational Rehabilitation will provide free information about the services it provides. It helps those with work-related injuries or disabilities to attain assistive technology, learn a new skill and return to work. ! United Blood Services of the Dakotas will be collecting blood donations from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. daily. There is no charge to donate blood and be a part of life-saving efforts.

Maintaining field drainage is critical in keeping every available acre of our farms productive. Sheyenne’s Cyclone Rotary Ditcher simplifies ditching by doing the job efficiently — hydraulically controlled delivery chutes keep dirt evenly distributed so there’s no need to go back and level. The unit also limits ground compaction created by traditional scraper ditching, while providing task-specific features engineered for faster, more profitable operation.
