July was a big month for Sig Armitage of Canby,Minn. He participated in the National SeniorGames (held in Bloomington, Minn., this year), anOlympic-style event for elder ath-letes, and he was qualified topitch in the National HorseshoePitchers Association World Tour-nament in Topeka, Kansas.

But it is doubtful that eithergave this former farmer more sat-isfaction than he got in 2014when he was inducted into theMinnesota Gopher State Horse-shoe Pitchers Association’s Hall of Fame.

He had been a MGSHPA member for 30 years andwon numerous tournaments, and Hall of Fame recog-nition was a sweet reward. Armitage was nominatedby his doubles partner, Bob Knudtson of BrooklynPark, Minn., who was already a member of the Hall ofFame. Armitage was the 40th horseshoe pitcher to beinducted since the Hall of Fame started in 1969.

When Armitage turned 70 and moved into theElders division, his success grew even more. Hehas won the Elders Singles Championship threeyears in a row and with Knudtson the Elders Dou-ble Championship three years in a row. Last yearhe won the gold medal in his age bracket at theMinnesota Seniors Games, where he threw 86.66percent ringers. That qualified him for theNational Senior Games this summer.

At 76, Armitage still has some things he wants toaccomplish, but he expects it to get tougher as

I went to my first Farmfest this year,spending Aug. 4 and 5 in The Land boothand walking the grounds. Even after see-ing the Farmfest map, proofing long listsof exhibitors for our preview section, andreading up on the topics covered in forumsacross the three days, I still was not pre-pared for the incredible size of this farmshow.

Walking amongst the equipment, I sawa Claas Lexion combine so large that aladder and platform was the only way pro-ducers could check out the equipment.

A big thank you goes out to the manyLand readers who stopped by to tell usthat they like what we are doing. Weasked what we could do better. One farmer told Phyl-lis Nystrom, our grain marketing expert from CHSHedging, that he would like to see more dollar signsin her weekly “Grain Outlook.” So would we.

We received many requests for a new cookbook —our most recent edition, Volume III, came out a fewyears ago. Others would like to see recipes in everyissue. Currently we run recipes once a month in“Cookbook Corner.” We will do our best not to printrecipes back to back in case you want to clip them.

I understand. When my husband opens my recipebook a flutter of newsprint recipes fall out. I havelearned to place the book on a flat surface beforeopening.

It was a pleasure to speak with farm familiesthroughout the grounds. Farmers told me how goodtheir bean and corn crops looked. Come harvest,many plan to store their corn until prices got better.It’s a tough time to be a farmer.

I especially enjoyed hearing all the stories fromFarmfests gone by. Allen Holmquist of Clarissa,Minn., was at Farmfest when Johnny Cash wasthere. Others told me about that show as well.

Rich and Mary Jo Kuckacka, of Montgomery,Minn., stopped by The Land booth. They had theirfirst date at Farmfest 29 years ago and saw LorettaLynn. They have been married 27 years.

Farmfest debuted in 1972 on a farm near VernonCenter. Farmfest ’76 was held in Lake Crystal andwas infamous for the heavy rains that turned thegrounds into a mud pit. The event has been held in

Redwood County since 1994.“Cookbook Corner” columnist Sarah

Johnson had stopped by a thrift store onher way to Farmfest and picked up com-memorative Farmfest ’76 7-Up bottles.They were quite the conversation starter.

Our veteran staff writer Dick Hagenrecalled the ’76 Farmfest as well. In fact,Dick has been to Farmfest so many timesthat he has been using the same pressbadge for years. As usual, he worked tire-lessly — interviewing sources, covering

forums and walking the grounds. We aregrateful.Thank you

This is the first year that The Land correspondentsand columnists sat at the booth and met you, ourreaders. A big thank you goes out to the writers whojoined us.

“Table Talk” columnist Karen Schwaller sent herregrets after having to cancel her appearance; shewas certainly missed by the numerous folks whostopped to visit with her.

Many readers told Lenae Bulthuis, who writes“The Back Porch” columns on faith, family and farm-ing, that her columns inspired them. Some said theyread her first and then check out the other articles.

Another reader told me that all he reads is PhyllisNystrom’s “Grain Outlook.”

Others go right to our last page with our “BackRoads” and stopped to say hello to the duo behindmany of those features, Tim and Jan King. Theywere taking story ideas.

Many readers like our “From the Fields” reportsfrom producers across Minnesota and northern Iowa.Some got the chance to meet Kristin Kveno who filesthe reports.

Correspondent Carolyn Van Loh crossed pathswith one of her most inspiring sources, a farm couplethat overcame major medical challenges. She alsoshowed visitors her book on the 90-year history ofthe Minnesota Farm Bureau, decade by decade.Sobering statistics.

Correspondent Renee B. Vander Schaaf gave us alesson on the Dutch people that settled the Iowa

Everywhere you look,there’s a poetic irony totoday’s high-speed rushtoward “slow” food andagricultural sustainability.

For example, throughoutthe United States well-informed, well-intentionedshoppers see no inherentconflict in driving theirtank-sized SUVs to thelocal organic cooperative topurchase sustainably-grown meat, fruit, dairyproducts, and vegetables.

Corporate America is lit-tle different. It spends billions on brainsand millions in jet fuel to sniff out, thenbuy, pieces of today’s hottest new busi-ness sector, sustainable food. WitnessSpam-making Hormel Foods; in May, itpaid $775 million to purchase Apple-gate Farms LLC, an organic meat seller.

Farm and ranch organizations, too,now spend wheelbarrows of dough on

“new” media to remake theirdull, gray images and mes-sages to more hip-sounding,more sustainable-suggestingphrases and ideas. Geneti-cally modified seed now isall about “reducing pesticideuse” or “feeding the world”and a part of Grandpa’slong-gone clover patch has,like Lazarus, risen again asa “sustainable cover crop.”

Driving most of these efforts— as well as the corporatejets and glitzy imagemakeovers — is the gener-

ous latitude almost everyone takes indefining the word “sustainable.”To Big Bizand Big Ag, sustainable is more a market-ing device than a holistic production sys-tem. Sustainable sells so “sustainable”—whatever that is — is what they are.

Just how far that view can bestretched is showcased in the latest BigAg group developing its own definition of

sustainability. That group modestly callsitself the Global Roundtable for Sustain-able Beef. Who and what is the GlobalRoundtable for Sustainable Beef?

“GRSB is,” according to its website,“the strategic platform where leadingorganizations within the beef industry,environmental branch, retailers andothers with a close interest in theindustry partner to advance continuousimprovement in sustainability of theglobal beef value chain through shar-ing their knowledge of leadership, sci-ence and through multi-stakeholderengagement and collaboration.”

Whoa, cowboy. Can phrases like“global beef value chain” and “multi-stakeholder engagement and collabora-tion” even be used to define sustainable?

Sure, if your goal is to dictate productioncriteria that then becomes “sustainable”beef, says Mark Rasmussen, an expert insustainable farming who also serves asdirector of the Leopold Center for Sustain-able Agriculture at Iowa State University.

Self-serving definitions of sustain-ability are “pretty common, actually,”notes Rasmussen. “Almost every farmand food group has their own. Con-sumers have little to no idea what anyof these might mean or what the differ-ences between them are.”

There are, however, several, widelyaccepted definitions of sustainableagriculture used both in the UnitedStates and around the world that, notsurprisingly, are far more cultural thancorporate.

In 1990, the U.S. Department of Agri-culture suggested sustainable agricul-ture should “over the long term, satisfyhuman needs, enhance environmentalquality and natural resource base, makethe most efficient use of nonrenewableresources and integrate natural biologi-cal processes, sustain economic viabilityand enhance quality of life.”

What, no room for global valuechains? Huh.

Keep it simple — Sustainable is what sustainable does

prairie. I got to hold a psalter, a liturgi-cal book of psalms from the old country.

“Farm and Food File” columnist AlanGuebert wrapped up the show, makingThe Land’s Farmfest booth a stop onhis national book tour.

Many readers shook his hand and

bought his book. One reader told himthat even when he didn’t agree, the col-umn always made him think.

I could say the same about our readers.You always make us think. Thank you.

Marie Wood is the associate editor ofThe Land. She may be reached [email protected]. ❖

‘You always make us think’

To the Editor:The Southern Minnesota Land Use Expo

held north of Blooming Prairie on July 20could have easily carried the sub-title “Bringing Homethe Bacon,” considering the lack of any inclusion fromdairy, poultry and other sectors of the ag industry. Inreview of the long list of sponsors one is missing: HormelFoods Corporation. However, I’m sure they’re quite grate-ful for all that the hog industry does that provides themwith ongoing, record-breaking profits each quarter.

Discussion at the event included that of bufferstrips and water quality. Interestingly enough, ourneighbor to the south, the state of Iowa (an Indianname meaning “Beautiful Land”) ranks 49th in thenation for water quality and number one in hog pro-duction, an ironic combination.

Unfortunately, “Big Ag” advocates refuse to hearand entertain contrary opinions. At the SouthernMinnesota Land Use Expo, several legislators in

attendance encouraged citizens to voicetheir concerns and participate in the

democratic process. These same legisla-tors, who are nothing more than a mouthpiece for“Big Ag,” talk out of both sides of their mouths.

When the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Citi-zens Board expressed environmental concerns regard-ing installation of a huge dairy operation in westernMinnesota, all of the legislators in attendance at thisevent voted to abolish the MPCA Citizens Board,including Sen. Dan Sparks of Austin, Sen.Vicki Jensenof Owatonna, and Sen. Dave Senjem of Rochester. OnlyRep. David Bly of Northfield had the guts to voteagainst abolishment of the MPCA Citizens Board.

We will not be silenced, nor will we allow “Big Ag”advocates, including elected officials, to ruin ourenvironment.Brad TromBlooming Prairie, Minn.

OPINION

To the Editor: This is in response to Alan Guebert’s column pub-

lished July 31 blaming agriculture for the nitrates inthe water in Iowa. (Editor’s note: The column is alsoavailable at www.TheLandOnline.com.)

Mr. Guebert, did you know Des Moines had ele-vated levels of nitrates in the river in the 1940s longbefore farmers were using commercial fertilizers?Did you know that after Des Moines removes these“dangerous nitrates” that they dump them back intothe river downstream? Did you know that manywaste treatment plants convert ammonia tonitrates? So is it a wonder that nitrate levels areincreasing in the river?

Your turn, Mr. Guebert. Let’s tell the whole story ifyou really want to solve the problem.Greg Mikkelson Lake Crystal, Minn.

GUEBERT, from pg. 4When the state of Iowa established the Leopold

Center, legislators defined sustainable agricultureas agriculture that maintains “economic and socialviability while preserving the high productivity andquality of Iowa’s land.”

That means “In general, sustainable agricultureaddresses the ecological, economic and social aspectsof agriculture. To be sustainable, agriculture canoperate only when the environment, its caretakersand surrounding communities are healthy.”

Did those wise Iowans who established the LeopoldCenter almost 30 years ago simply not know about“multi-stakeholder engagement and collaboration”

when they wrote their definition of sustainability?They knew. Moreover, those leaders also knew that

agricultural sustainability — whether it was aboutfarms, farm communities, or the food those commu-nities grow and offer to you — has nothing to dowith global roundtables, corporate branding, orclaims of environmental commitment.

The only ones that don’t seem to know it are BigBiz and Big Ag, and the confused consumers inbetween.

The latest full ‘From the Fields’ crop reports from our Minnesota

& northern Iowa producersThe Pulks Wannaska, Minn.

“It’s finally starting to dry out here.” Andy Pulkreported to The Land Aug. 2 that blue skies wereback after a rainy July — nine inches worth. Withbetter conditions, he hopes to get back to sprayingsoybeans as the “aphids are really bad.” Pulkbelieves that “we should be on par for a decentcrop.” The corn is all tasseled. Wheat harvestshould begin around Aug. 10-12, “right on normalschedule.” The sunflowers are struggling due to

being planted late and in poorconditions, but “all the othercrops are doing well.” Pulksaid that “it will be nice toget into harvest, to see whatyou have out there.”Meanwhile, he got to enjoy

some time with the family at the Roseau CountyFair. Among the noteworthy activities was Pulk’sdaughter, Sarah, showing a calf for 4-H — “It wasthe highlight of her whole summer.”

The Lees McIntosh, Minn.

“Everything is going really well,” Joan Lee washappy to report to The Land on July 31. Shefinished second crop haying July 21, and may geta third in after wheat and oat harvest — thewheat may be ready in a week, but the oats are“pretty green yet.” They’ll be spraying theconventional beans for aphids, but noted thatthere’s not much they can do in the organicbeans. The corn is “looking good” — about two

weeks ago it began tasseling.Meanwhile, Lee will bechecking out a slightlydifferent brand of farmingnext week as she embarks onthe Minnesota Agricultureand Rural Leadership alumni

trip to Ireland. While she may miss wheat harvestback home, she’s looking forward to experiencingwhat Irish agriculture has to offer.

The Haarstads Rothsay, Minn.

“I’m very happy how thecrops are looking,” JohnHaarstad reported to The LandJuly 31. That’s a big changefrom how things were goingnot too long ago on the Haarstad farm. Hereported that his corn has recovered well afterwind and hail did a number on it over two weeksago. “I’m pleasantly surprised at how it came

back.” Haarstad believes that the value of therain “outweighed the cost of the damage.” Thecorn “looks really good” and he’s “very happy withhow they (beans) look.” The soybeans are beingsprayed for aphids. Meanwhile, Haarstad islooking forward, and getting equipment ready forharvest. “We are progressing well; we arecautiously optimistic.”

The Filzens Renville, Minn.

“If we get one more shot of rain, we should beset for a nice harvest.” That was Dale Filzen’sprediction when The Land spoke with him on July31. While the crops have received someprecipitation in the last two weeks, a little morewould be welcome. The sugar beets are beingsprayed with fungicide — “For the most part,they look good.” Beet pre-pile will begin Aug. 7— the earliest Filzen has experienced. Half of his

soybeans are sprayed, whichis good because “in the lastweek they (aphids) havereally exploded.” Meanwhile,the corn “looks good ...everything is tasseled out andstill pollinating.” The crop

has “good color.” Filzen said the navy beans are“doing pretty good.” With three or four weeksuntil harvest, he said “they’re starting to turn.”Overall, “everything looks real good.”

The ThorpesCanby, Minn.

“Every time we need rain, we get it.” When TheLand spoke with Thorpe on Aug. 9 he was happyto report that two inches of rain had fallen thatday. The soybeans are enjoying the moisture —Thorpe called the beans “excellent.” Whileaphids have “definitely moved in” to hisMinnesota ground, they have not been a problemon his South Dakota fields. Thorpe believes thecorn should be a great crop this year. “In the next

couple weeks we should seedenting.” Now he’ll beworking on getting theharvesting equipment readyto go. He’ll also take sometime before school startsagain and harvest begins for

a family vacation to Yellowstone. Going on thisadventure and making memories with the familyis the perfect way to end the summer for Thorpe.

The PagelsWinthrop, Minn.

“I was a little concerneduntil yesterday but we got aninch of rain,” Delayne Pageltold The Land Aug. 7. Hewas happy for theprecipitation that fell, but wouldn’t mind anothershot. “The corn looks real good,” said Pagel, andthe soybeans have really come around. He waswaiting for a plane to come and spray for aphids.

The wheat harvest is done. Pagel began harvest atthe end of July and it took a couple days tocomplete. “Can’t complain on wheat,” he said.Pagel’s wheat averaged 80 bu/acre. As far as thekidney beans go, he sprayed last week for whitemold — “It’s hopefully the last time I have tospray.” — and they’ve taken “a little bit of a yieldhit” due to all the heat. Pagel is hopeful the rainwill help. Some tiling and getting ready for fallwill be on his to-do list in the next two weeks.

The MarblesMapleton, Minn.

“I don’t think I can have itany better.” That was HarlanMarble’s sentiment when TheLand spoke with him Aug. 9.The crops are thriving evenwith no rain so far in August on his farm. Marblesaid the corn is “doing great” — he counted 14rows around and 38 kernels long in a cob helooked at in one of his fields. The soybeans are

still blossoming. Marble observed pods from theground all the way to the top, with the plantsaround 38 inches tall. The beans were sprayedlast week for aphids; none have been spottedsince then. With the crops doing well, Marble isfocusing on harvest. He decided to refurbish his25-year-old corn head instead of buying new. Heestimates that it should take about five solid daysto do the job. Marble will also be cleaning thebarn to make way for 4,000 pigs arrivingsometime next week.

The HeusinkveldsWykoff, Minn.

When The Land spoke with Nate HeusinkveldAug. 7 he was pleased with how thing were going— “The crops look really good.” He was alsohappy to have finished third crop hay, which was75 percent of the second crop. “Every hay crophas been good,” Heusinkveld said. He estimatesthat the corn silage harvest will be around thefirst of September, a little ahead of average. Thecows are enjoying the nice summer weather. “It’s

been ideal for cattle,” hesaid. Some of the cows willbe making the trip to theMower County Fair — 11heifers will be shown there.Heusinkveld is also helpingget other projects for the kids

ready to go to the fair. The fair is a family affairand one that Heusinkveld enjoys immensely.

The KempsSibley, Iowa

“Things are looking good here,” Brian Kemptold The Land Aug. 7. “We’ve gotten nicely timedrains.” Along with the rain, the weather has beenkind to their crops. “We’ve not had the horriblyhot and stressful days,” said Kemp. The corn islooking good and has “pollinated well.” Thesoybeans have “a lot of pods on them,” Kempsaid, although he noted that they’re starting tosee some water hemp out there. Even with that

concern, he said “They’re thecleanest fields though I’veever seen.”

The Froemmings Garfield, Minn.

Rodney Froemming is inthe midst of rye harvest; sofar he’s happy with this“fairly good crop and testweight.” When The Landspoke with Froemming on July 31, he reportedharvesting in “good conditions.” He’ll soon beginwheat harvest. The moisture rate isn’t quite whathe would like — “just need a few more days.”

Meanwhile, “The corn is looking really good,” hesaid, and he has “lots of waist-high beans.” He’sdone spraying for aphids. The weather has beenin the “low 80s; very low humidity.” Thankfullyfor Froemming it’s been “decent workingconditions.” Bottom-line: “Everything isprogressing.”

RINGER, from pg. 1younger pitchers move into the Elders division.

The standard horseshoe court is 40 feet. When menturn 70 they join the Elders, who throw from 30 feet.Women and Juniors (ages 13-17) also throw from 30feet. Cadets (ages 12 and under) throw from 20 feet.

Armitage said that when men turn 70, it is com-mon that their percentage of ringers increases,since they move 10 feet closer to the stakes.

“My ringer average jumped about 20 percent afterI turned 70,” he said. “People 70 and over have thehighest average statistically.”

Moving to the 30-foot mark means that in sometournaments Elders are competing with women. Hewas at an invitational tournament in St. Louis ear-lier this year. The top percentage throwers in the30-foot division included four women. He said inthose four matches, he won two and lost two.Farm pastime

For Armitage, this all started on the farm in the 1950s.His father, Harry Armitage, lost his Minnesota

farm in the Depression and moved his family toCalifornia where they grew grapes. Having recov-ered financially, he brought the family back to Min-nesota and purchased land, giving land to his twoolder sons, Gerald and Ralph, to start farming. Atthe time, Sig was still in school, living in Canbywith his parents, but every day he and his fatherwould help his brothers on the farm.

Two horseshoe stakes were set up beneath two

cottonwood trees on Ralph’s farm. Father and sonswould pitch horseshoes on their lunch hour.

“I liked to play at noon because the more we playedthe less we were working,” Armitage said.

They started out with real horseshoes, the kindhorses actually wear. Later a brother purchased twosets of regulation horseshoes. After 60 years, thosestakes and cottonwood trees are still there, thoughthey haven’t been used for 30 years.

When Armitage graduated from high school, hisfather gave him 160 acres to start farming.

“I farmed for 32 years,” he said. “I quit when I was49 (and rented out the land) and I’ve been drivingschool bus ever since.”

All that time he was pitching horseshoes, as wellas pitching fast-pitch softball and bowling. “Allunderhand delivery,” he said, where you are trying tothrow to one spot. When he quit softball, he gotinvolved in a horseshoe pitching league.

Armitage has put serious effort into pitching well.“I throw 12 months of the year and pitch 1,000

shoes a week, often more,” he said. “With practice myaverage is currently 74 percent ringers and has beenthe top average in Minnesota for the last four years.”Keeping the sport alive

Three years ago he and his wife sold the farmhouse and built a house in Canby. He set up a 40-footcourt in his backyard. He also found room in thebasement for a 30-foot court, so he can pitch year-round. This past winter he pitched 18,000 shoes inhis basement. When they spend part of the winter inArizona, he plays in tournaments there.

Minnesota’s horseshoe leagues operate during thesummer, but horseshoe tournaments are held allyear. The town of Upsala, Minn., has indoor courtswhere winter tournaments take place.

MGSHPA lists 24 clubs in the state. Membershipnumbers in the Association have declined slightly inrecent years as some older members are lost and notso many youth have taken up the sport. Armitagetried to remedy that this summer. For the first timehe conducted a class in horseshoe pitching inCanby’s summer recreation program. He hopes thisintroduction will get some youngsters interested.

He was part of the effort spearheaded by team-mate Curt Olson to build “state of the art” horseshoecourts in Canby, which in June hosted the Best of theWest Tournament.

While official membership in sanctioned leaguesmay have declined, there are still numerous non-sanctioned leagues, sometimes called “bar leagues,”that are keeping the sport alive.A ringer

July was a very good month for this horseshoepitcher. At the National Senior Games, his 75-79-year-old class was the largest, with 15 contestantsfrom 10 states. When the top eight players squaredoff in a round robin playoff the second day, Armitagewent undefeated and won the gold medal.

He finished 12th in the World Tournament lastyear in New York, and would have been pitching inthe top bracket of his division at the World Tourna-ment in Topeka, but he pulled out.

“It would have been another 10 days of being goneand six days of pitching,” he said.

That was more than he wanted considering he hadsix tournaments lined up for August, plus leagueplayoffs and the Minnesota State Tournament onLabor Day weekend.

“No rest for the wicked,” he said. Or more to thepoint, for those who just love pitching horseshoes.

There may be plenty of casual horseshoe pitchinggoing on around Minnesota, but tournament playerstake it seriously.

“When you’re playing in competition, it’s tough,”Armitage said. “Sometimes it is stressful. We laughand make jokes beforehand and afterwards, butwhen we’re playing, it’s business.”

By DICK HAGENThe Land Staff Writer

Farmfest speakers acknowl-edged that agriculture is inan economic squeeze rightnow. Most had difficulties pre-dicting how long the squeezewould last and what would bethe shake out.

But Rod Hebrink, presidentand CEO of AgStar Financial Ser-vices, addressed the tough agricul-tural economics head on.

“The reality is that in almost any setof economic circumstances we havefarmers who do well and farmers whodo not do well. There can be a range ofreasons — weather, managerial deci-sions, marketing mistakes,” saidHebrink. “This situation too will havefarmers who weren’t prepared for thesecircumstances and others who were.”

Logically you can expect more stresson younger farmers, but this too dependsupon partnerships with their parents.

“But it’s as much about their manage-rial skills as it is their financial capac-ity,” said Hebrink, emphasizing that if

they have been making goodproduction decisions, AgStarwill be hanging with them.

But if young farmers were thinkingthe golden years of this past decade werethe new reality of agriculture and lakecabins or vacation homes got included intheir lifestyle, those decisions may comeback to bite, he suggested.

AgStar, a farmer-owned cooperativeserving Minnesota and northwest Wis-consin, is part of the Farm Credit Sys-tem. AgStar partners with a number offarm credits and other lenders acrossthe United States.

“We actually have financial assets inabout 40 states,” said Hebrink.Cycles

Hebrink has 36 years experience inagricultural financing. Economic cycleshave always played a role in his work.

“We go through these cycles andalways the question is ‘how long willthis one last?’” he said.

“We just came through one of thelongest stretches of prosperous times foragriculture that I have ever seen. Thelast decade has been very prosperous.”

What goes up ususally comes down.Still in these turbulent times, farmersare keeping a positive attitude.

“Farmers are eternal optimists, andthey really have to be. If you’re makinga land purchase you have to believethere is a strong future in agriculture,”said Hebrink. “The statistics on thedoubling of food demand within thenext 30 years worldwide means thatagriculture has to be the provider forthis growing population.”

However, that market potential istempered in the minds of farmersbecause of the financial circumstances,explained Hebrink.

Hebrink recalled the financial painsof the 1980s with interest rates bal-

looning up to 20-22 percent.“We are certainly not expecting a sce-

nario anything like that ever again,”said Hebrink. “The balance sheet ofagriculture is frankly as strong as ithas ever been.”

Financing farm land also haschanged since then.

“Today we finance land on what weview will be its sustainable value, noton what it was selling for. Typically weare financing land with more than 50percent down,” he said. “We’re morecautious now. I think our farmersunderstand they need a lower debtload as well.”Technology

The impact of technology is stagger-ing, according to Hebrink. He cited arecent U.S. Department of Agricultureitem that said the input of labor goinginto agriculture has dropped 78 per-cent over the last 65 years.

“Offsetting this is the significantincrease in capital investments in tech-nology and equipment to make thesedramatic improvements in efficiencypossible,” he said. “At each of our stock-holder advisory group sessions, discus-sions always include technology andprecision agriculture. And not just forpurposes of increasing yields but moreimportantly how does this technologymake me more profitable.”

The large amounts of data being gen-erated for farmers is a growing chal-

The reality is that inalmost any set of eco-nomic circumstanceswe have farmers whodo well and farmerswho do not do well.

— Rod Hebrink

See HEBRINK, pg. 11

IN REVIEW

HEBRINK, from pg. 10lenge. He said that the key questionfrom producers is “How do I utilize thisdata?”

“Earlier this year we put on a Tech-noledge Conference in Minneapolis.We weren’t selling technology; the pur-pose specifically was how can produc-ers better use what technology is deliv-ering. It was well received,” saidHebrink. “The event had presentersfrom across the country. And it wasn’tjust limited to AgStar clients. All farm-ers were invited.”

In fact, AgStar has already plannedthe 2016 event for Jan. 20-21 at HiltonHotel in Minneapolis.Interest rates

When asked about the cost of moneyfor next season, Hebrink didn’t dodgethe question.

“Everyone is watching the FederalReserve. The bet is when they willraise interests rates, not if. We are nowinto our sixth year without a change inthe discount rates to the FederalReserve. That is unprecedented,”Hebrink said.

“So interest rates will start nudgingup but it will be modest is our expecta-tion.”

He added that the U.S. economy isstill weak but the dollar is strong. Ris-ing interest rates will only make thedollar stronger relative to other cur-rencies.

“That creates a lot of head winds forthe economy. This recovery has beendifferent from other recoveries,” hesaid. “It’s been much slower, more shal-low and it continues to be very fragilewhich will be why the Fed Reserve is

cautious about interest rates ahead.”

When it comes to land purchasesamongst AgStar customers, Hebrinkindicated that 80 percent of purchaseshave been by farmers as opposed toinvestors.

“Investors are much more cautious,”he said. “With recent profits in farmingit was only logical that farmers wouldsee these opportunities. However thoserecord-setting prices that got into the

news were usually on an 80 acre nextdoor parcel. We’ve seen some soften-ing in land prices recently particu-larly with more marginal propertiesand that likely will continue for thenear term.”

Born in 1937, Worthington,Minn., farmer Lyndon Olsonstill lives on the farm wherehe was born. And raising hogswas in his blood from the verybeginning.

He remembers his dad far-rowing sows in the winter in anold building with a wood-burning heaterproviding some comfort for baby pigs.Often that litter of baby pigs would betransferred in a bushel basket into thehouse to sit next to another wood burn-ing stove to get them warmed up.

“There wasn’t such a thing as heatlamps back then. So dad did whateverwas necessary to get those newbornswarmed up as quickly as he could,”said Olson.

Olson is a walking, talking historybook on local agriculture. He agreed toan impromptu Q&A session at Farm-fest, held Aug. 4-6 in Morgan, Minn.

Q: Is agriculture beingneglected these days?

Olson: The problem is not agricul-ture; it’s very capable of dealing withsituations as they arrive. Take, forexample, the sudden explosion of avianflu within our turkey industry. Veryrapidly we developed new tests andnew vaccines. Things are changing sorapidly in the world that nobody cankeep up with everything.

The problem is we have too manypeople who will pick up on a comment,maybe even just a rumor, and itbecomes the gospel truth. We don’t takethe time to look at the full implicationsof issues. Social media today is so much

a mouthpiece for many people who sim-ply haven’t taken the time to distin-guish between cause and correlation.

For example, today we’re often hear-ing that certain foods aren’t sohealthy. But soon good evidence comesalong to completely disprove that ear-lier assumption. Often cause can bedifferent from the correlation.

Q: On the genetically modifiedorganism versus non-GMO foodissue, who’s the driver?

Olson: We need to respect what theconsumer is saying and doing. But thereality is that a huge number of con-sumers who have a preference don’treally know why they have that prefer-ence. They have heard from somebodythat GMO is bad for them even thoughthey have not taken the time or effort toresearch whether it is true or not. Sowhat we have to do is tell our story to asmany people who will listen as we can.

Also we have people who are on two

different sides of the food chain. But ifyour belly is empty, you have a whole dif-ferent way of looking at foods than ifyour belly is full. When you’ve got extramoney you can spend on anything youwant. However a starving kid in Africaisn’t going to worry about junk food, yetsomeone with money might want a steakthat has been grass-fed and is antibiotic-free and know what farm it came from.

As a livestock man, I don’t think weshould be attempting to satisfy thedesires of a limited number of consumers.

OLSON, from pg. 12The mandatory country of origin hassle going on in

Congress right now is another example of too manyvoices trying to tell agriculture what to do. My opin-ion is that if some people want that information onthe foods they buy, then find a food store that willprovide it. Don’t force everyone to meet thoserequirements if they’re not interested. Why do wetake the limited views of a few and foist it on every-one? This country is big enough so certain foodiescan find the stores that provide what they need.

Q: Would just a non-GMO label suffice forthose consumers wanting such foods?

Olson: There are very few foods that don’t havesome GMO substance. So having a totally non-GMOfood source might be a real issue. The geneticallymodified label can mean different things to differentpeople. To some it means taking germ plasm fromone organism and inserting it into another organ-ism. But we could get the same thing from naturalmutation which is continually taking place in natureregardless. How do you decide which is better? Or isthere even a difference?

Q: Sustainable foods are another hot topicthese days. What’s your take?

Olson: There’s about as many different definitionsof sustainability as there are organizations pushingit. I respect consumers wanting to know more aboutwhere their food comes from. But it seems we’re get-ting too many players into the game. Food storesknow their customers better than anyone else. If agiven food store has to deal in certain foods to satisfya segment of its market, let that food store be thedriver of where and how to source that food. Farmerswill always be the basic provider of food. But when itcomes to sorting out what’s what on the meatcounter or food shelf, that shuffle has to be betweenthe consumer and the retailer I think.

Q: You’re a 70-year hog man. Still got hogs onthe farm?

Olson: We’re down to just one pig, a 4-H critterthat we are hosting for a neighbor. Right now my sonand his fiancée have 32 mother cows and calves onthe farm. That’s the first time we’ve had cattle on thefarm since 1983.

Q: So do cattle work OK on a farm that has ahistory of pork production?

Olson: Well, we used to feed cattle, too, so havingthese cows and calves on the farm again bringsback good memories for me. ❖

MORGAN, Minn. — A goodbarometer of how well a col-lege is doing might be meas-ured in the increase in enroll-ment. The University ofMinnesota College of Food,Agricultural and NaturalResources Sciences is lookingat an 11-12 percent enrollment increasefor 2015-16 at its St. Paul campus.

Brian Buhr, Ph.D. and Dean ofCFANS, talked about the popularityof his college at Farmfest, held Aug. 4-6 at the Gilfillan Estate.

“It’s getting pretty well known thatthere is demand in agriculture. Agood example is that we are about 100percent job placement after gradua-tion,” he said. “The link between agri-culture and natural resources isgrowing. You don’t need to be a farmkid to be interested in agriculture.”

Buhr said that both application andacceptance rates were good, whichsuggests high quality students.

“We’re above our expectations andwe’re getting quite a few transfer stu-dents, both from other colleges andfrom the colleges within our Univer-sity system,” said Buhr.

Documenting the changes, Buhrnoted a significant increase in plant

science programs. The pushtoward urban agriculture andlocal foods might be a factor.

Even a family pet might be pushingsome students into veterinary medicine.

The growing popularity of backyardgardening and an interest in “wheredoes our food come from” being taughtat many high schools is enhancing theplant science department, said Buhr.

“We’re getting a lot of students fromurban areas. Of course we depend uponour rural areas to provide good num-bers of students to us also,” he said.Broadband

Enhancing broadband connectivityfor farms and rural communities was apopular panel discussion and forum atFarmfest. In fact, a whole day wasdevoted to rural broadband.

While broadband is not an issue forUniversity of Minnesota students,Buhr said that the university is usinginternet technology for enhancedlearning opportunities.

“For example, we now offer coursesout of our Northwest Research and

Outreach Center at Grand Rapids. Alsoan entomology course offered up thereengages St. Paul campus researcherswho are doing special work on diseaseand insect issues,” he said.

Buhr added that students at the St.Paul campus connect three or fourtimes during the semester to WestCentral Research and Outreach Cen-ter at Morris for “hands-on” experiencein particular research being done atthat station.Value of education

Tuition costs will always be an issue.But Buhr asks the question: “What is

the value? Because our job placementis so high, we’re hearing good thingsfrom industry on how well our stu-dents are prepared for this big stepinto the business world.”

Getting more scholarships and sup-port for students is an ongoing effort,said Buhr. That’s why the Universityof Minnesota works hard at securingwork-study programs.

“We recognize that we are competingwith South Dakota State, NorthDakota State, Iowa State and otherMidwestern agricultural schools. Andto compete you have to be offeringsome pluses,” he said.

CFANS will begin September with2,000 students on the St. Paul campusand 800 graduate students.

“We’re not yet at ‘full house’ statusbut the agricultural and food scienceprograms here on St. Paul campus aredefinitely in a growth mode,” said Buhr.

The graduate program at the St.Paul campus is strong and steady withapplied economics currently thelargest graduate program. The Nat-ural Resources and Science curriculumis also growing steadily.Water quality

Water resources are a popular areaof study at the University of Min-nesota CFANS.

“We’re committed to agriculturalproductivity and sustaining agricul-tural productivity. Producers recognizeyou have to maintain those naturalresources of soils and water and theenvironment of pest management,”Buhr said.

When it comes to buffer strips, Buhrsaid they are looking for solutions thatmaintain productivity and improvethose natural resources.

“The corn growers and the soybeangrowers are working on quality issuesrelating to nutrient management andcrop productivity. We’re working onnew genetics to improve water effi-ciency and cropping systems that alsoenhance water quality,” he said. “Doingboth of those things is a challenge forall of us.” ❖

By SARAH JOHNSONThe Land Correspondent

In 1981, a Minneapolis schoolteacher who moon-lighted as a cooking class instructor penned a cook-book that was not only cute but also was wall-to-wall with useful, delicious recipes that were aimedat busy cooks without a lot of time on their hands —aimed at women who considered cooking a labor oflove, with emphasis on the labor (groan).

Betty Malisow came to the rescue with “RecipesFrom Minnesota With Love…”, featuring simple,Minnesota-themed meals with fresh food and ingre-dients most cooks have on hand.

These relatively easy recipes hearken back to atime when processed and packaged foods were lessavailable and less popular, when people generallybought fresh, whole vegetables and meats and cut

them up and put them in a pan instead of defrostingsomebody else’s corporate recipe in a TV dinner.

Convenience, however, has always been a popularconcept in the kitchen, so many recipes were shortiesthat could be prepped quickly and easily.

Have fun with these selections.■

After enjoying something similar to the next recipeat Hell’s Kitchen in Minneapolis, we were eager togive Blueberry Wild Rice Breakfast a taste test.Although we found it to be laughably “traditional”(white sugar and dairy products were not availablein pre-colonial America due to the lack of sugarrefineries and cows), the wild rice and blueberriesdefinitely fit the traditional bill and tasted heavenlytogether with that creamy half-and-half on top.

We tried one bowl cold and one bowl warmed in themicrowave, and preferred the warm version by asmall margin. Four out of four yums from the John-son clan!Blueberry Wild Rice Breakfast — “A traditional Indianbreakfast”

2 servings1 cup cooked wild rice1⁄2 cup blueberries2 teaspoons sugar1⁄4 teaspoon nutmeg1⁄2 cup creamSpoon wild rice and blueberries into two soup

bowls. Sprinkle with sugar and nutmeg. Pour creamover and serve.

■

When you want a soup that’s not too heavy, perhapsa little sweet with your salty … try Curried CarrotSoup, which gives a starring role to a traditionalunderstudy, the carrot. Carrots are amazing whenpureed, mixed with cream and lightly seasoned. Thisversion allows you to add as much (or as little) curryas you like (or dislike).Curried Carrot Soup

6 servings2 ounces butter1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped1 large onion, chopped3 1⁄2 cups beef stockSalt and pepper2 to 3 teaspoons curry powderChopped fresh parsleyMelt butter and add carrots and onion. Cook until

onion is transparent. Add stock and season to tastewith salt and pepper. Simmer until carrots are soft.Put mixture in a blender and blend until smooth.Put mixture back in pan. Add curry to taste. Let sim-mer 15 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley before serv-ing.

■

While not a big mushroom fan, if I had to eat mush-rooms, this would probably be the version I wouldpick. Just look at all those amazing flavors simmer-ing in that pot. Enough said.

Do you have a thing youhave been meaning to dosince spring, the first of theyear, or even the turn of the21st century? You know —that thing. That one thingthat you talk about, thinkabout, can even picture inyour head or on paper, butyou haven’t started yet. Notbecause of an accident, nat-ural disaster, or lack oftools, time, or talent. It boilsdown to this. It’s going to behard.

The thing will demand work, disci-pline, and perseverance. It may messwith your mornings, your evenings,likely both. Maybe your one thing istaking a class, eating regular mealswith your family, cleaning out thestorage room, shingling the garage,

tightening the budget orthe belt loops, starting goodhabits or breaking badones.

Here’s the reality. It’smore comfortable to thinkabout exercise than to laceup the tennis shoes. It’seasier to talk about shin-gling than to pound nails,or to pin heart-healthyrecipes than to preparethem. Although the endgoal is filled with all that is

good and right, the steps to get thereare difficult. And of the thousand stepsthat need to take place between thenow and the not yet, there will be nofinish line until we take the first one.

“It takes 31 days to create a habit,”middle daughter Stephanie said.

“No, it’s 20 days,” said Melanie, heryounger sister.

Correcting both daughters I said, “Ithought it was 21 days.”

Regardless of the stats you use, it’s alot. And there is no magic to the num-bers. After 31 days of pulling herselfout of bed early to run before work,Stephanie thought it would get easierwith time. On day 32 she laid there.Wasn’t this the day she would want tojump out of bed eager to run? Nope.Not even a little bit.

She’s not alone. In his book, “Spiri-tual Leadership,” J. Oswald Sandersshared a story about how many mis-sionary pioneers limited their ministry,while Douglas Thornton of Egyptpushed ahead with great vision. A sen-ior colleague said to Thornton, “You aredifferent from anyone else I know. Youare always looking at the end of things.Most people, myself included, find itbetter to do the next thing.”

Thornton’s answer: “I find that theconstant inspiration gained by looking

at the goal is the chief thing that helpsme to persevere.”

A handful of years ago my friendColleen was challenged by a pastor’squestion. He asked, “If you knew thatyou couldn’t fail, what one thing wouldyou do?”

Colleen’s first thought was that shewould knit hats and give all the pro-ceeds to The Esther School — a schoolin Zambia for under-resourced chil-dren. She didn’t think about how muchtime it would take, or where she wouldfind the yarn or sell her goods. Shesimply answered his question. Andwhen the pastor urged the congrega-tion to put feet to their thoughts, shedid. Today her hands have knitted anddonated over $50,000 to help build thisimportant school. And she’s not doneyet.

You’re up next. While the rest of theworld shoots for New Year’s resolu-tions, mid-season reset buttons, andend-of-year goals, there’s no time likethe present for new beginnings. Whatis the one thing you would do if youknew you couldn’t fail? Go and do justthat.

Hot and sunny gardens arestunning with their vibrantcolors and high level ofvisual energy.

An underused plant,Anthemis, commonly calledGolden Marguerite Daisy, isa perennial that tolerateshot, dry locations and bloomsfrom early summer to fall. Itproduces the loveliest oflemon-yellow flowers.

My first start of this plantcame from my mother, EvaSchroeder. She was a garden columnistwho wrote for several publications inthe Midwest and maintained a destina-tion garden, Chapel Gardens in EagleBend, Minn., that was primarily filledwith roses. If any of you readersremember my mother’s columns orhave visited the gardens I would loveto hear from you.

The stats on the Golden Margueriteinclude: height – 2 feet; spread — 2feet; foliage — gray green; planting —full sun

Examining this daisy closely or look-ing at a macro photo, it appears asthough the center is a cluster of tinylemon drop candies. The actual size of

the individual blossom is inline with the size of a quar-ter. It deserves close inspec-tion to reveal the exquisiteshape and texture.

Children often learn todraw a daisy as their firstflower art because it hassuch a simple, classicshape.

A childhood game, “Heloves me, he loves me not”is a game in which one per-son seeks to determine

whether the object of their affectionreturns that affection or not.

A person playing the game alter-nately speaks the phrases “He lovesme, he loves me not” while picking onepetal off a flower for each phrase. Thephrase they speak while picking off thelast petal supposedly represents thetruth between the object of their affec-tion loving them or not. (The player ismotivated by attraction to the personthey are thinking of while reciting thephrases.)

The Golden Marguerite works greatfor this game and young kids visitingour gardens are invited to pick a daisyand pull off the petals. Usually they go

through about five flowers eachwhich is fine since the plant hasan abundance of blooms.

I’ve heard that another versionof the game uses the phrases “Heloves me, he loves me lots.”

One issue some gardeners havewith this plant is its ability toreseed and try to populate anarea with its offspring. This iseasily controlled by dead heading(cutting off the spent blooms)before the seeds ripen and fall to

QUALE, from pg. 21the ground or by hoeing out the young seedlings inearly spring. It is a great plant to use in prairie gar-dens or natural areas when reseeding is welcome andconsidered to be an attribute. Propagation is by divi-sion or seeding.

Daisies are from the Asteraceae plant family andhave been around for centuries. Their casual charm

and tolerance of adverse conditions makes themideal candidates for windy and dry areas.

The Golden Marguerite is a workhorse of a peren-nial and seems to be underused, in my opinion. Suc-cess growing this plant is practically guaranteed andcare is minimal. Its lovely shape, color and texturemake for a welcome presence in any garden. Daisiesare delightful!

Golden Marguerite great for prairie garden plantings

AMES, Iowa – Creating a beautiful landscapedepends on putting the right plant in the right place atthe right time. Iowa State University Extension andOutreach horticulturists describe the correct plantsand care for late summer and early fall plantings.

Q: When is the best time to sow grass seed inIowa?

Mid-August to mid-September is the best time toseed new lawns and overseed existing lawns in Iowa.A late summer seeding has several advantages overspring seeding. The seeds of cool-season grasses ger-minate quickly in the warm soil of late summer. Thewarm days and cool nights of early fall promote rapidturfgrass growth. The growing grass also has lesscompetition from weeds as few weed seeds germinatein late summer or fall.

Q: Is late summer/early fall a good time toplant trees?

Mid-August through September is an excellent timeto plant pine, spruce and other evergreens. Ever-greens planted in late October or November may nothave adequate time to become established before theonset of winter and could be subject to desiccation,injury and death. Deciduous trees and shrubs can beplanted from August through early November.

For other questions, contact the ISU Hortline at(515) 294-3108 or at [email protected] articlewas submitted by Richard Jauron, Iowa State Exten-sion horticulturist, and Kendall Evans, Iowa StateOrganizational Advancement. ❖

Grain AnglesThe role of spec funds

We are now entering into August with much of thecorn crop pollinated and beans setting pods.Weather in Minnesota and Wisconsin — for themost part — has cooperated, resulting in excellentlooking crops.

The Eastern Corn Belt hasbeen struggling with excessivemoisture and there is great dis-parity between our backyard(West of the Mississippi) exclud-ing some states like Wisconsinand conditions in the easternCorn Belt. Minnesota and Wis-consin corn conditions are bothabout 17 percent better than thefive year average; rated at 87 per-cent good to excellent in Min-nesota and 82 percent good toexcellent in Wisconsin as of theJuly 27 U.S. Department of Agri-culture reports.

With crop conditions relatively steady andweather conditions mostly favorable, market volatil-ity still remains high. Of course, many variablesaffect the markets like: currency exchange, globalcompetition and production, along with the marketsperception on the crop.

In news headlines we read about speculativefunds (spec funds), commercials, and individualtraders. There are three major types of commoditymarket participants. Understanding who they areand what they’re roles are, can help as grain produc-ers work to position their operations and mitigaterisk.

Lately there has been a lot of money moving in

Grain OutlookCorn prices

drift sidewaysThe following market analysis is for the week end-

ing Aug. 7.CORN — Corn didn’t disappoint us as the market

opened Sunday night and for the third week in a rowit gapped lower from the previous Friday close. Thedifference this week was the factprices came back to fill that gapduring the week.

Talk of dryness around theCorn Belt in the six to 10 dayforecasts was a catalyst for thesideways turn, although rainwas in the forecast before thattime frame. Trading below lastweek’s low kept the downtrend inplay, but without any fresh head-lines, prices drifted sidewaysahead of the Aug. 12 monthlyU.S. Department of Agriculturecrop report.

Crop conditions were unchanged at 70 percentgood/excellent as of July 30, although one percentmoved from the good to excellent category. In theweek ending Aug. 7, the latest commitment oftraders report indicated speculators reduced theirnet length by a whopping 75,000 contracts to leavethem with a net long position of 104,000 contracts.

As attention shifted slightly from supply concern todemand concern, weekly exports were a disappoint-ment. Old crop sales were net cancellations of106,000 bushels and a marketing year low. Old cropsales still need to average 13.7 million bushels toachieve the USDA’s 1.85 billion bushel export projec-tion. New crop sales of 10.9 million bushels onlybring total new crop sales commitments to 180 mil-

Livestock AnglesRoller coaster ride continues

The livestock markets seem to continue their rollercoaster rides. The interesting fact is that for the pastseveral months this roller coaster ride that both thecattle and hogs have been in are still in the sameever so slightly declining trading ranges that theyhave been in for several months.

The cattle market has seen thestruggle between supply anddemand continue into the monthof August. There has been littlechange in either the supply ofcattle, which continues to remaintight, or the demand for beef thatremains well below years past.

From a supply point of view, thenumber of cattle is not expectedto increase for several moremonths. However, considering theweight at which cattle are cur-rently being slaughtered, thisincreased weight is offsetting the decrease in cattleto some degree.

From the demand side, the past few months of coldstorage reports have indicated more beef in storageeach month than analysts had anticipated. Thiscould be because of the increased weights or morelikely the weaker demand as reflected in the reducedboxed beef trade. With the U.S. dollar continuing toclimb against foreign currencies, the likelihood ofincreasing the export business seems remote at thistime. A further complication on the demand side ofthe equation.

It would not appear at this time that the tradingrange that has developed over the past numerousmonths will be penetrated in either direction for a

NYSTROM, from pg. 23 lion bushels compared to 305 millionbushels on the books last year at thistime.

The United States continues to lose sales to SouthAmerica with talk that North African destinationshave been purchasing Argentine corn. June exportsof U.S. dried distillers grains were a record 1.31 mil-lion metric tons with most of it going to China. Ofconcern here is the real possibility of China chang-ing their domestic corn pricing policy. China hasbeen supporting domestic producers through higherprices to slow migration to the cities, but finds itselfwith high priced, low quality corn for which theycan’t attract buyers. If they should adjust their pol-icy to lower prices, U.S. exports of DDS will likelysuffer, forcing those bushels into the domestic mar-ket. By the end of the 2015-16 crop year, China isprojected to own 62 percent of global corn stocks.

Basis levels were beginning to soften as weheaded into the weekend. Ethanol margins wereshrinking as ethanol prices slumped. Exportdemand was slim to none with talk of South Koreamaking purchases from Argentina. Fund sellingwas estimated near even for the week, but fundsremain net long corn.

From Brazil this week, ethanol industry com-ments hinted that Brazilian sugar cane mills areselling ethanol supplies as fast as they are producedfor cash flow. If the situation continues, more millsmay need to close over the next five years. U.S.weekly ethanol production in the week that endedJuly 31 was down 4,000 barrels per day to 961,000barrels per day. Since the beginning of the crop year,the annualized grind rate is 5.255 billion bushels.The USDA had 5.2 billion bushels on the latest bal-ance sheet. Ethanol stocks fell from 825 million gal-lons to 808 million gallons. The end of driving sea-son is quickly approaching and demand is assumedto have peaked for the year.

OUTLOOK: First resistance December corn is$3.90/$3.95, then $4.02 per bushel. Support in thenew crop contract is the recent low at $3.74 1⁄2,then $3.62 1⁄2 per bushel. September corn closed 13⁄4 cents higher for the week at $3.72 3⁄4; theDecember contract was 2 1⁄2 cents higher at $3.833⁄4 per bushel. Aug. 12 is the USDA’s monthly cropreport. The average trade estimate for corn produc-tion is 13.332 billion bushels using an average yieldof 164.7 bushels per acre. In July, the USDA outlookwas 13.53 billion bushels with a 166.8 bu./acreyield. The 2015-16 carryout is pegged at 1.449 bil-lion bushels, down 150 million bushels from theUSDA’s 1.599 billion bushel forecast in July. Watchthe weather forecasts for price direction.

SOYBEANS — Soybeans began the week underpressure after decent weekend weather. Crop condi-tions actually improved one percent to 63 percentgood/excellent as of July 30. Price action turnedsideways at mid-week as traders evaluated cropoutlooks, weather forecasts avoided extremes, andsurvived export cancellations. As the week came toa close, concerns of too dry conditions rallied soy-beans to fill a gap left from July 27. Basis levelsimproved as well.

In the commitment of tradersreport for the week ending Aug. 7,speculators had decreased their net

long position by 12,000 contracts to a reasonable netlong 25,000 contracts.

Weekly export sales had to be waded through sincethe USDA was correcting misreported positions fromthe previous week. Old crop weekly export salesshowed net cancellations of 16.4 million bushelswith China canceling 200,000 metric tons outrightand rolling 300,000 mt from old crop to new crop(misreported in last week’s report). This was a mar-keting year low.

New crop sales of 37.6 million bushels seemedhigh, but included the 300,000 mt roll. New crop U.S.soybean sales commitments of 331 million bushelsare roughly half of the 625 million bushels on thebooks last year at this time. The USDA has Chinaimporting 77.5 million metric tons of soybeans thisyear, up 3.5 mmt year-on-year. The USDA reportedthis week in their daily sales 264,000 mt of U.S.beans sold to China for new crop.

Soybean imports to food companies were sus-pended at China’s Shandong port after it was discov-ered Genetically Modified Organism soybeans werebeing sold as non-GMO beans to food processors. It isillegal to move GMO beans into the food system, butthey can be sold to crushers. Chatter has increasedthat due to the weakness of Brazilian Real versusthe U.S. dollar, Brazilian farmers could increase soy-bean acres by 3-5 percent this year at the expense ofcorn acres.

Interesting news this week from the UnitedNations food agency. Global food prices fell to theirlowest point in nearly six years in July, led lower bysinking dairy and vegetable oil prices overshadow-ing increases in sugar and cereals. The Food andAgriculture Organization food price index, whichmeasures monthly changes for a basket of cereals,oilseeds, dairy, meat and sugar, in July was down 1

percent from June at 164.6 points. It was the index’slowest level since September 2009.

OUTLOOK: The next support in the Novembersoybean contract is $9.26 1⁄4 with resistance at $9.74per bushel, then $10.09 per bushel. The Novembercontract closed the week 23 cents higher at $9.63 1⁄4per bushel, testing the 50-day moving average. Theaverage trade guess for the Aug. 12 crop report isproduction of 3.742 billion bushels using a yield of44.8 bu./acre. In July, the USDA used a yield of 46bu./acre for a crop of 3.885 billion bushels. The 2015-16 carryout projection is 322 million bushels com-pared to 425 million forecasted in July. Rememberthe August report will include resurveyed soybeanacres. August soybean futures expire on Aug. 14.Direction for the coming weeks will be determinedby weather and what the August report shows foracreage.

Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the week end-ing Aug. 7: September Chicago wheat was 11 1⁄4 centshigher, Minneapolis only managed a 1 1⁄2 cent gain,and Kansas City eked out a 3⁄4 cent increase. Septem-ber crude oil dropped $3.25 to $43.87, ultra-low-sul-fur diesel fell 4 1⁄2 cents, reformulated blendstock foroxygenate blending plunged nearly 15 cents lowerand natural gas rallied 8 1⁄4 cents. HRS harvest isprogressing with high yields and good protein levelsbeing reported. The next USDA crop report is Wednes-day, Aug. 12. ❖

LENSING, from pg. 23and out of the market causing large price fluctua-tions. Managed money, otherwise known as specula-tive funds, use commodities as investments muchlike those investing in the stock market. Typicallythese speculative funds are long (buying) futurescontracts and it’s common to hold them until theyroll their position forward.

“Rolling” a position is simply moving their positionto a different option month, usually “rolling” (sellinga nearby month and buying a deferred month) astime goes by. These funds influence the marketgreatly, and one of the greatest benefits provided tothe market is liquidity and volume.

In late July, spec funds actually had the biggestlong (bought) position since the drought of 2012.With liquidity and volume, the market becomesmuch more transparent. Commercials or users ofgrain and oilseeds depend on this liquidity and vol-ume to hedge their risks as they buy, process, or shipgrain.

The other major group of commodity markets areindividuals; many times these are farmers or indi-vidual investors. Farmers, of course, are using thesemarkets to reduce risk of rising or falling prices.Corn has fallen about 70 cents in a few short weeksand market volatility is expected to remain high.Using futures and options involves risk much likeother types of grain marketing.

However understanding who the three majorgroups of market participants are may help you bet-ter understand what spec funds, commercials, andindividuals are when you hear them referred to inmarketing news headlines.

The hog market is an interesting market thesedays. Hog prices seem to have stabilized in a narrowtrading range over the past few weeks. The cashmarket has been back and forth reflecting the factthat supply and demand are nearly equal on a broadbasis, while the futures market reflects the day-to-day increase or decrease in supply or demand. Thishas left the overall market very choppy in recentdays.

In a broader look at the market, hog numbers areexpected to increase in the months ahead whiledemand should remain pretty much on pace with theincreasing supplies. From the retail perspective,pork by far is the best value in the meat protein mar-ket for consumers at the present time. One look atthe disparity between beef prices and pork prices isthe main reason for the fairly consistent demand forpork, rather than for beef, over the last severalmonths. Producers should continue to monitor mar-ket conditions and use market strength to protectinventories.

Too many rely on supply alone to forecast prices,whereas demand is the underlying factor that ulti-mately determines price in any market. ❖

WATKINS, Minn. — Hisfather bought the land in 1954.Today the farm houses 900dairy cows along with the nec-essary barns and buildings forlivestock, feed and equipment.Acres have expanded to about1,000 yet they still purchaseanother 20 percent of addi-tional feed. And perhaps there’s roomfor a few more cows.

“We’re not yet maxed out. We couldbuild one more barn getting us up to1,300 cows. That would be about it,however,” said Dennis Landwehr, headof Landwehr Dairy.

Landwehr Dairy was a stop on theJuly 21 Minnesota State Cattlemen’sTour which included stops in Stearns,Wright, Meeker and McLeod counties.Landwehr Dairy is three miles northof Watkins, Minn.

Teamwork is the glue that makesthis operation function at highly pro-ductive levels. Dennis, wife Marlene,son Mike and herd manager IsaacMiller own and operate LandwehrDairy, LLC. Mike manages the cropsand feeding aspects; Miller overseesherd health and employees; Dennis isoverall manager of the operation.

“Not a college degree amongst us but

we’re all graduates of the col-lege of hard knocks,” said Den-nis.

Efficiency is key in this oper-ation. It starts with manage-ment of calves and youngstock. They maintain their ownpasteurizer which allows themto feed lower quality milk.

“Pasteurizers have beenaround for some time. We wanted away to utilize our waste milk. With ourautomatic calf feeders, calves consumeup to 10 liters of milk a day. Milkintake is tracked using RF-ID tagsthat record the time and amount ofmilk consumed every time a calf entersthe feeder,” explained Dennis.Milk and feed

They calve about 1,100 cows peryear. Calves get five to seven days ofbottle feeding in individual calf pens;then get moved to automatic calf feed-ers in groups of 25 in the rearing barnfor four months. Next step is to a heiferraising operation where they are keptuntil 60 days after breeding.

The dairy is located in good crop coun-try so no pastures in this operation.Corn and alfalfa are the only crops.Additional purchases are mostly cornfor grain but some corn silage also getspurchased from nearby growers. Pric-ing on silage is figured at 7.5 to eighttimes the pricing on a bushel of corn.

Like most major dairy farms, milkingis on a 3X schedule — 6 a.m., 2 p.m.and 10 p.m. That requires a steady anddependable milking crew. Cows aver-age 85-90 pounds of milk per day.

Total employment is 17 full-time andfive part-time employees whichincludes three women.

“We’re 90 percent Mexican employ-ees. We provide housing for 10. His-panics have been very good to us,” saidDennis.

Miller, a 14-year veteran of the dairy,sets up the schedules for the milkingcrew.

these crews do a good job of working together,” Den-nis said.

Feed handling and storage is very precise. Greatcare ensures feed is preserved correctly to preservemaximum quality. Both milk quality and quantityhinge on good nutrition so attention to detail is amust.

For about 12 years, Penta feed wagons have beendoing the heavy hauling and moving from feed stor-age areas to the various barns.

“Why Penta? Service is important to us. Also greenis our primary power color but that, too, is because ofready and dependable service from a local dealer,”said Dennis.Operations

Their newest free stall was completed just shortlybefore this July tour. Dennis likes the open sides withStarwood rafter construction in all barns. He compli-ments his contractor, Arnzen Construction ofFreeport, Minn.

DAIRY, from pg. 27Alfalfa is a critical crop to

Landwehr Dairy.“We cut every 28 days, four cuts per

season. For corn we use multi-purposehybrids that we can harvest either forsilage or grain. Chisel plowing falltillage is our program. We don’t pur-chase extra nitrogen. Our cattlemanure provides enough,” he said.

The three barns total have 10 mil-lion gallon manure storage pits.

Like many modern dairy farms,Landwehr Dairy is a “spic and span”operation. Dennis is adamant aboutthe looks of the business.

“Sloppiness is not tolerated and will

not be tolerated. We hire for attitudeand train for aptitude. If they havegood attitude, they’re trainable,” saidDennis. “I try to say ‘hello’ or ‘goodbye’to every employee every day. Team-work is the catalyst out here.”

Dennis said two things are impor-tant to every farmer: 1) Farm appear-ance since you only get one shot at afirst impression; and 2) Great employ-ees are a must.

“A daily priority in our business is tohelp consumers understand that thisfarm produces a wholesome productfor their families.”

This column was writtenfor the marketing week end-ing Aug. 7.

The July Federal orderClass III benchmark milkprice was announced by theU.S. Department of Agricul-ture at $16.33 per hundred-weight, down 39 cents fromJune, $5.27 below July2014, $1.35 above Califor-nia’s comparable 4b price,and equates to about $1.40per gallon, down from $1.44 lastmonth.

The 2015 Class III average is at$16.04, down from $22.52 at this time ayear ago and $17.69 in 2013. TheAugust Class III futures contract wastrading late Friday morning at $16.41;September, $16.55; October, $16.51;November, $16.31; and December, $16.

The July Class IV price is $13.15,down 75 cents from June, $10.63 belowa year ago, and the lowest Class IVprice since March 2010. The Class IVaverage for the year stands at $13.62,down from $23.19 a year ago and$18.27 in 2013.

California’s July Class 4b cheese milkprice is $14.98/cwt., down 57 cents fromJune, first slippage since January, and$3.71 below July 2014. The seven-monthaverage stands at $14.41, down from$20.35 a year ago and $15.99 in 2013.

The $1.35 shortfall from the compa-rable Federal order Class III price rein-forces sentiment in the Golden State toform a Federal order and USDA, asexpected, announced a hearing on theproposal. The Class III outpaced the 4bprice by well over a dollar in 2015,ranging from $2.43 in January to a lowof $1.17 in June or an average of $1.62.That compares to a $2.18 averageshortfall at this time a year ago and$1.70 in 2013.

The July 4a butter-powder milk priceis $13.03, down 62 cents from June and$10.55 below a year ago. The 4a aver-age for 2015 now stands at $13.42,down from $23.03 a year ago and$18.03 in 2013. The state mandatedprice enhancement announced lastmonth begin on August milk prices.

This week’s Global Dairy Trade auc-tion marked the 10th consecutive eventwhere the weighted average for allproducts offered dropped. The 9.3 per-cent decline Tuesday follows a 10.7 per-cent drop July 15 and 5.9 percent onJuly 1 and is at the lowest level sincethe GDT’s inception in 2008.

FC Stone reports the aver-age GDT butter priceequated to about $1.04 perpound U.S., down from$1.1160 in the July 15 event.Contrast that to ChicagoMercantile Exchange butterwhich closed Friday at $1.99per pound. GDT Cheddarcheese equated to about$1.2081 per pound U.S., upfrom $1.18.53 per pound lasttime, and compares to Fri-day’s CME Cheddar at

$1.75. GDT skim milk powder, at 64.34cents per pound U.S., is down from77.21 cents last time, and the wholemilk powder average, at 72.13 centsper pound U.S., is down from 83.82cents in the last event. The CME GradeA nonfat dry milk closed Friday at 69cents per pound.

HighGround Dairy’s Eric Meyer saysthe GDT “offered up yet another blowto New Zealand dairy farmers.”

“While this week’s result was largelyexpected, the fact that certain deliverymonths in whole and skim milk powderdid not make it past the auction’s firstround is troubling as it suggests some ofthe volume was not sold, pushing aging‘old season’ stock to the next auction.”

FC Stone reports that New Zealandbased Fonterra trimmed its milk priceforecast from $5.25 per kilogram ofmilk solids to $3.85 while pledging anestimated $430 million in financialsupport to farmers to help them cope.It also dismissed calls for the GDTonline auction to be suspended after atenth consecutive fall in prices, sayingthat such action does not solve the sup-ply/demand imbalance.

In other trade news Pacific Rim tradeministers meeting Friday in Lahaina,Hawaii were unsuccessful in achievinga 12-nation trade deal, referred to asthe Trans-Pacific Partnership. Reutersreports that “a dispute flared up overauto trade between Japan and NorthAmerica, New Zealand dug in overdairy trade, and no agreement wasreached on monopoly periods for next-generation drugs.”

Congress passed the TPA which willallow the Trans-Pacific Partnership freetrade agreement to be brought forwardonce final negotiations are completed.Access to Canadian and Japanese mar-kets for U.S. dairy products is an issueof concern to U.S. dairy producers as isany increased access to U.S. markets byOceania. Sources indicate that the play-ers are very close to a deal.

A lot of eyes are on Canada, whetherit will defend its quota supply manage-ment program which has kept Cana-dian dairy prices high to consumersbut stable milk prices to dairy produc-

ers. Doing so could bounce Canada outof the TPP entirely.

MIELKE, from pg. 29warned: “If Canada opens its borders,dairy exporters in New Zealand andthe United States may not grab aslarge a share of Canada’s dairy mar-ket as they might hope. Without sup-ply management, there is room forCanada’s dairy producers to increaseproduction considerably, and theymight one day compete for exports anda potentially larger domestic market.Amid very high prices, demand fordairy in Canada has been stagnant foryears. If prices drop, Canadian dairyconsumption is likely to rise.”

National Milk’s Jim Mulhern said itwasn’t clear how negotiators willbring the talks to a successful conclu-sion but “We will continue to workconstructively to achieve a dairy pack-age that provides comparable resultsbetween new export market opportu-nities to TPP’s two key markets andany new import access.”

Cash dairy traders had to digest theAug. 4 GDT auction and the JuneDairy Products report and took thecash block Cheddar down to $1.7125per pound by Aug. 5, but it rallied Aug.6, then slipped Aug. 7, and closed at$1.75, up the third week in a row and aquarter-cent above the previous week.That’s 35 cents below a year ago whenthey jumped 10 cents. The barrelsclosed at $1.7175, up two cents on theweek and 41 cents below a year agowhen they jumped 12.25 cents. Eightcars of block traded hands on the weekat the CME and 20 of barrel.

Many industry contacts suggest theprices are defying the odds by holdingat current levels, according to DairyMarket News. Trading is holdingwithin a range and is bouncing backand forth. Milk production in the Mid-west is declining somewhat, but with-out hot days and nights, manufacturersreport the decline has been slow and

steady. There is plenty of milk for man-ufacturing and spot loads of milk canbe found at or slightly above Classprices. Production remains steady.Strong domestic consumer demandcontinues to provide a lift for cheeseprices and is helping keep inventoriesat comfortable levels.

Western producers report domesticconsumer demand is strong. Cheesemaking has remained active as manu-facturers continue to try to absorb theavailable milk. Milk intakes havedecreased somewhat, following typicalsummer patterns.

■

Cash butter threatened another runat $2 per pound but petered out as cob-webs formed on the phones this week.It held all week at $1.99, 41 centsbelow a year ago. Only one car tradedhands this week at the CME.

Manufacturers report week-to-weekbutter demand is active into retail, food

service, and grocery accounts, reportsDairy Market News. Producers indicatethey are looking forward to fillingdemand for the November/Decemberholidays. For that reason, some arepurchasing bulk butter steadily to aug-ment current churning output.

Western manufacturers continue toweigh the decision between churningand selling cream. Demand for creamhas been strong for a number ofmonths and some are wondering whenit may decrease. Domestic consumerdemand for butter has been strong.Cumulative production is down. Somecontacts suggest the combination ofstrong demand and lower productionhas helped CME prices.

You’ll recall that preliminary datashowed June milk production totaled16.4 billion pounds, according toUSDA, up just 0.7 percent compared to

MIELKE, from pg. 30June 2014. USDA’s latest Dairy Prod-ucts report shows where that milk went.

June total cheese output hit 959 mil-lion pounds, down 3.1 percent fromMay, up 1.5 percent from a year ago,and year to date production, at 5.8 bil-lion pounds, was up 2.1 percent from ayear ago. The report also shows nonfatdry milk stocks at 262.3 millionpounds, as of June 30, up 1.3 million or0.4 percent from May and 15.2 percentabove a year ago.

The Daily Dairy Report’s SarinaSharp makes an interesting point inthe July 31 Milk Producers Councilnewsletter, stating that “It seems likelythat the California dairy herd is actu-ally smaller than USDA reports, andthat the indefatigable declines in Cali-fornia milk production have more to dowith contraction in the herd than lowerproduction per cow. The distinction isimportant. If milk production deficitscan be explained away by unusuallyvirulent mycoplasma in the spring andheat in the summer, then milk produc-tion is likely to rebound in the fall. Butif there are fewer cows, milk output inCalifornia is likely to remain stub-bornly low.”

■

Speaking of California, the USDAannounced this week that it will hold a

public hearing starting Sept. 22 in Clo-vis, Cal., to consider the establishmentof a Federal Milk Marketing Order forthe nation’s No. 1 milk producer. Theannouncement came as no surprise butperhaps underscores the need for aFederal order when considering milkprice equality, according to Rob Van-denheuvel, general manager of theMilk Producers Council.

Speaking in Friday’s DairyLine, Van-denheuvel said manufacturers have avery different opinion and questionedthe need for the hearing, but USDAappears to agree with the dairy produc-ers and cooperatives supporting theorder formation in that “There is aneed for the hearing, there is a problemin California, and we need to explore aFederal order to address that problem.”

When asked about the possibilitythat the Federal order that resultsfrom this hearing might not be whatdairy producers want, he replied; “Thisis the early stages of a very longprocess and throughout that processwe’ll be given the opportunity to pro-vide input on the early side and on thelate side we’ll have to review whatUSDA does with our input and whatthey propose to go before the producersbut at the end of the day, the Californiaproducers are the ones who will voteand decide whether or not we go to aCalifornia Federal order.”

He added that “This is not like modi-fying a Federal order where the choicebetween producers is to accept themodified changes or to throw out theorder completely. This is a promulga-tion hearing which means, if producersdecide not to support the Federal order,we are exactly the same place wherewe are today”

■

Lastly, ABC News reports that a fed-eral judge ruled Monday that Idaho's

law banning secret filming of animalabuse at agricultural facilities is“unconstitutional.” ABC says the rul-ing “gives animal rights activistsacross the country hope that the deci-sion will pave the way to overturnsimilar laws in other states.”

Great balls of fireThis week’s Back Roads is the work of The Land Correspondents Tim King (story) and Jan King (photo)

Take a wineglass. Hold it in your hand. Is itcool and smooth? It is hard. Is it clear orcolored? It is brittle. Put it on the table.

Does it float above the table on a delicate stem?What is this glass? What is this common but

beautiful thing? Where did it come from?“My glass is made from sand, soda ash, and

lime,” John Oleson says.Hand blown glass isn’t common. Oleson crafts

his at White Pine Studio near Clitherall in OtterTail County, Minn.

“The furnace has 60 pounds of molten glass at2,000 degrees,” he says, sticking his blow rod intothe inferno and rotating it. He does this twice.

Then he shapes the fiery ball on his stainlesssteel marver or palette, leans back, puts the longrod to his lips, and blows a fat bubble of glass.

“This will be the cup,” he says as he places hisglowing rod on his workbench and rolls it backand forth shaping it with steel tools and thickwet newspaper mitts. A pointed tool opens asmall round hole in the rotating glass bubble.Oleson enlarges that, forming the wineglassmouth.

“Glass is easiest to shape between 1,500 to1,800 degrees,” he says, putting the cup-to-beinto the glowing white eye of a small reheatingfurnace.

After shaping the cup, Oleson sets it aside, stillhot and attached to the blow rod. Using anotherrod he returns to the large furnace to gatherglass for the stem and base.

“The glass in the furnace is clear,” he says. “Iadd color after I take it out.”

Oleson turns the incandescent ball that willbecome the stem on a tiny pile of fine brokenglass called frit. Some of the orange frit meltsinto the soft glass.

He heats and reheats the stem glass as heelongates and shapes it like he is making taffycandy. Swirls of orange appear inside the spiralstem that is forming. Then, in a series of smoothquick movements, he joins stem to cup. Now, sep-arating the completed wineglass from the rod, heplaces it in another furnace to cool slowlyovernight.

“Each piece of hand blown glass, even if it’spart of a set, is unique,” he said.

Oleson welcomes visitors to his studio duringthe summer and fall. You can call him at (218)405-0234 or visit www.whitepinestudio.com. ❖
