Get ready for more changes in farm practices
Some important changes coming to conservation programming.
The birds are southbound once again
Fall migration is underway, and will continue the next few months.
Hey, simple mistakes can happen
Mistakes happen, even for the best of us.
Consider your costs of milk production
2014's milk prices were really nice. 2015's not so much.
Still time to prepare your forage inventory before winter
Winter is quickly approaching, but there's still time to get your forage inventory in order.
Grain markets need some hope
Poor conditions persist, especially for Ohio growers.
Beans, beans, homegrown proteins
Beans can provide homegrown protein for individuals who want to grow their own food.
Watch your herd’s fuel (feed) economy
Milk prices are lower than they were a year ago, so marginal income over feed costs are going to be lower this year compared to last year. We really need to be managing input costs and feed efficiency on dairy farms.
Summer shows and the ‘stuff’ we accumulate
A four-day show rarely gets four good days in a row, but the last of July/ first of August weekend brought just such good weather to us at Portersville, Pennsylvania.
Trophy Life
I am not a trophy mom. I mean I think I'm a catch, but I'm not "into" trophies.
