SOME OF OUR COMPETITORS TAKE THE CASSEROLE APPROACH TO SELLING SEED CORN.

DUMP A BUNCH OF STUFF TOGETHER AND HOPE THAT YOU’LL SWALLOW IT.

Some companies want to talk to you about everything they sell besides seed corn. Maybe that’s because their seed corn isn’t really worth talking about. At Wyffels Hybrids, we only want to sell you one thing – high-performance hybrids adapted specifically for your acres.

Now doesn’t that sound appetizing? WYFFELS.COM | 800.369.7833 ©2019 Wyffels Hybrids Inc.

HERE ARE SOME HYBRIDS THAT AREN’T HARD TO SWALLOW. When you only have one product to sell, you can’t hide poor performance behind a package deal.

Which is why we work harder to provide you with superior corn hybrids for every field you farm. To find out more about these tantalizing hybrids, contact your local Wyffels Hybrids Seed Representative today. WYFFELS.COM | 800.369.7833

Perdue announces second round of MFP payments

By Tom C. Doran

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

WASHINGTON — A second round of Market Facilitation Program payments is expected to be rolled out in a few weeks.

“We’ll be getting it ready hopefully by the end of this month or early December,” U.S. Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said Nov. 8.

This second of what could be three separate tranches of aid totaling $16 billion are aimed at compensating farmers for losses due to the U.S.-China trade war.

The final MFP payment is pending any resolution in the trade war.

Illinois Farm Bureau President Richard Guebert Jr. said the organization had sent a letter to Perdue urging that the second tranche of MFP payments be sent as soon as possible.

“As Illinois farmers continue to wrap up harvest 2019, we find ourselves in choppy, uncertain financial waters. The first round of MFP improved farmer cash f low and this second tranche gives hope for farmers facing additional challenges as the next year of depressed prices, expensive inputs and household expenses approach,” Guebert said.

“We are extremely grateful to USDA and Secretary Perdue for their deep understanding and prompt response in our time of need.

“Agricultural producers across the state will be relieved to see 2019 come to a close as we look to the next year for expanded market opportunities.

“This second round of payments will certainly aid producers as we push through to the end of this extraordinarily difficult year and prepare for 2020.”

Caynan Sherwood and his daughter, Kassidy, ride in a spreader at Two Mile Creek Organic Farm near Sullivan, Illinois.

SULLIVAN, Ill. — When he talks to fellow veterans about careers in farming and agriculture, Army veteran Caynan Sherwood can relate to their responses — and their doubts.

“I never pictured myself as a farmer. I said it’s just farming.

You put the seed in the ground, God does the rest, it’ll grow,” Sherwood said.

Sherwood has learned a lot since then. Now, he talks about soil health, cover crops and regenerative farming.

“I didn’t know about yields or anything else. Now I’m focused on soil health and what the soil is doing,” Sherwood said.

The president of the soonto-be official Illinois chapter of the Farmer Veteran Coalition has learned a lot from his father-in-law and farming partner, Steve Buxton. They raise 400 acres of certified organic corn, soybeans and wheat on their Two Mile Creek Organic Farm near Sullivan.

Buxton’s wife, Paula, and Sherwood’s wife, Abbey, operate the storefront side of the

“It’s a full family farm. Me, my wife, our daughter, my father-inlaw, his wife, cousins and aunts come out there. It’s a really good community and family vibe,” Sherwood said.

He credits Steve Buxton with providing the inspiration and direction for him when he and Abbey and their baby daughter, Kassidy, returned to Illinois from Fort Lewis, Washington, following Caynan’s medical retirement from the U.S. Army.

‘Fun Fitness in Ag’ Workout video puts FFA chapter in national spotlight

By Martha Blum

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

INDIANAPOLIS — A project to help kids learn how to do fun exercises earned the Waterloo FFA Chapter the top award in the nation.

The Waterloo FFA Chapter received the 2019 National Premier Chapter: Growing Leaders award during the 92nd National FFA Convention in Indianapolis. The chapter won the honor for its work to create a “Fun Fitness in Ag” workout video.

“Our video has fun exercises geared towards first-graders,” said Alexis Mudd, who served as a committee chair of the project together with Charlie Dake. “We show our members exercising and completing tasks and it has fun music to keep it upbeat with some glitter at the end.”

The video begins with an agricultural pun — Lettuce turnip the beet.

“We had someone throw in a head of lettuce when we said it and then a turnip and a beet,” Dake said.

In the past, the FFA members had worked with adults but for this project the goal was to promote healthy lifestyles to kids.

The Waterloo FFA members developed a “Fun Fitness in Ag” workout video geared towards first-graders which features FFA members exercising to fun music with some glitter at the end.

“We think it is important to teach physical health early on in a child’s development because America is more overweight than other countries,” Dake said.

In addition to Dake and Mudd, the planning committee for the project included Riley Middendorf, Megan Vogt and Sophia Dell. The committee also received assistance from Karla Bivins, the elementary PE teacher at Waterloo.

It took several months for

the FFA members to complete the video.

“At the beginning of the project, we did research to figure out what stretches and exercise to have in the video to make sure the first-graders could do them,” Dake said.

“Our goal was to reach 200 students,” Mudd said. “But it was showed multiple times, so today our video has reached over 400 students.”

This is part of the reason why the Waterloo FFA members chose to do a video for their project instead of a onetime event.

“Now it can be shown for multiple years to come, and that will leave a more lasting impact even after we leave the chapter,” Mudd said.

“We’re hoping the video is the hook and the first peak into agriculture and our FFA chapter,” Dake said. “We hope when these kids get to high school, they become intrigued in leadership and the FFA.” The FFA members already have expanded the video project by organizing a yoga night for high school students.

“We started this to promote healthy lifestyles,” Dake said.

INDIANAPOLIS — Tara Hummel is a two-time winner of a National FFA Agricultural Proficiency Award.

The Tri-Point FFA member said it was an awesome feeling to receive the Goat Production — Entrepreneurship/Placement award during the 92nd National FFA Convention in Indianapolis.

“It was definitely a shock and surprise,” Hummel said.

Last year, the FFA member was named the winner of Small Animal Production and Care — Entrepreneurship/Placement for her project where she works at Select Exotics, a Savannah cat-breeding operation.

The FFA Convention was quite busy for Hummel since she also competed in the livestock judging career development event with the team from the Tri-Point Chapter.

“The livestock judging contest was a two-day contest on Wednesday and Thursday and I had to rush over to my interview for my goat project after the contest,” she said.

In addition to serving as chairs of the committee for the project, Dake and Mudd also presented the chapter’s project to the

judges at the national convention.

“It was really nerve-racking at convention because we had worked so hard on the project and for us to advance to the top 10 was amazing,” Mudd said. “We felt pretty confident coming out of our presenta-

tion, but later on stage we were both very nervous.”

“It was so cool to be helping with the project from the beginning where we were trying to promote physical fitness to the end when we were on stage representing not only our committee, but also our

chapter and state,” Dake said. “It was cool to be representing so many people.”

“I told the kids as we were preparing that to be in the top 10 in that nation is a major accomplishment and anything after that was icing on the cake,”

said Tim McDermott, adviser for the Waterloo FFA Chapter that includes about 160 members. “Charlie and Alexis did a really nice job of putting together the presentation and representing our chapter very nicely.”

The Waterloo FFA Alum-

ni made sure the FFA students received a proper welcome home from the FFA convention.

“They had a fire truck and police cars to create a train going through downtown,” Dake said. “People were parked on the side of the road, so it was a really cool moment.”

This is the second year in a row the Waterloo FFA Chapter has been selected a national finalist.

In 2018, the chapter was named a Model of Excellence finalist which includes all of the chapter’s projects in the Program of Activities.

“It’s been fun to watch the kids over the years buy into what can be possible,” McDermott said.

Caynan Sherwood (from left) and Steve Buxton talk with Kim Erndt-Pitcher of the Prairie Rivers Network about how, when and where to sow perennial seed for pollinator habitat. Buxton and Sherwood started with seeding two waterways, a setaside area and a demonstration plot as pollinator habitat. The seed was gathered from five acres of restored prairie that Kim and her husband have on their own farm in southern Illinois.

HEROES FROM PAGE ONE

Caynan’s ser vice includes serving with and a 2009 deployment to A fghanistan with the Illinois Army National Guard in Matton and a second deployment in 2014 to Afghanistan with the U.S. Army 1st Armored Division out of Fort Bliss, Texas.

“My father-in-law kept talking to me about coming to farm. He said it gives you more freedom, you get to spend more time with your family, the hours are better,” Sherwood said.

Sherwood enjoyed the job he found at the corporate offices of Rural King in Mattoon, but he thought that Buxton might be right.

“I wanted to be outside.

I wanted to be more active than what I was at a desk,” he said.

Now, he wants to help and encourage other veterans who might be needing that same encouragement.

“I want to help. I want to help veterans and service members who get out of the military and want to transition to agriculture. I want to give them a direction to go,” he said.

The Farmer Veterans Coalition is a national organization that seeks to both bring military veterans into agriculture and farming careers and provide resources, from financial to educational to community, for farmer veterans.

“We have all of these people who have been through similar circumstances and stresses and now we are all farming. It’s just an amazing feeling.

You go from serving your country to serving your community,” Sherwood said.

He discovered the Farmer Veteran Coalition during a trip with Buxton to the MOSES Organic Farming Conference in La Crosse, Wisconsin. After chatting with Michael O’Gorman, the founder of FVC, Sherwood did some research on the group.

“I was kind of curious.

There are a lot of programs out there that say they are out there to help support veterans and be there for veterans. I don’t trust all organizations that say that. Michael was legitimate and I followed some of the stories from other service members,” he said.

Sherwood recognized his own story, being at a loose end after his military career came to an end, needing to provide for a family, but not having a definite non-military career goal.

“We didn’t know what we wanted to do,” he said.

Like many, the military had provided a purpose, as well as a job along with friends. Sherwood planned to make the Army his career.

“I did not want to get out. I had every intention of retiring from the military. I just didn’t anticipate retiring this way,” Sherwood said.

Now established in farming, Sherwood wants to share his story and encourage other veterans into farming and agriculture. He sees the discipline, lessons and skills learned in the military as a good fit with farming and other careers in agriculture.

“In the military, you deal with stress and learn how to adapt and overcome. You have to have integrity, you rely on yourself. In farming, you can’t blame anybody else if something doesn’t get

done. It’s on you. I think service members know about getting things done and getting things done when they need to happen,” he said.

The group includes farmers of all ages and from all branches of the service and farmers of all types of crops and livestock.

“It’s row-crop farms, CSAs, livestock farms. We have dairy farmers. We have farmers who raise bees. We all communicate, and this really good camaraderie is there,” Sherwood said.

It also means there are fellow veterans to talk to, many of whom served in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“It’s a community. You can reach out to the other farmers. People are there to help one another,” Sherwood said.

of the growth has happened in the last two to three years,” Hines said.

Hines said veterans, with the training and habits they receive during their service, are a good fit for farming and jobs in agriculture, but for many, looking at agriculture for employment may not occur to them.

O’Gorman likes to point out that large numbers of military veterans come from small towns around the country and may be reluctant to return.

“They have nothing to go back to or they think they don’t have anything to go back to. It’s like, well, there are no jobs here. There is work. It’s just maybe if you didn’t grow up on a farm, you wouldn’t think of agriculture. And here’s this whole industry that really needs people who are younger to revitalize it,” Hines said.

Membership is free and open to veterans who farm and those who work in ag-related jobs.

“I want to emphasize that point — you don’t have to have your own farm to get involved with this. If you are a veteran and you are working at

the local elevator or the local implement dealership, you can join,” Hines said.

The organization offers tangible benefits, including opportunities for grants and funding for farm projects and continuing education, including on-farm education, but it also offers fellowship and the opportunity to connect with fellow veterans and fellow farmers.

“The chapter really lends itself to the whole community thing where veterans can talk with each other about whatever,” Hines said.

For Hines, one of the best parts of his job involves bringing established farmer veterans together with veterans who are just entering agriculture in a mentor/ mentee relationship.

“Putting somebody on somebody else’s farm, particularly if it’s somebody who didn’t grow up in agriculture and saying, hey, this is a career path you can take and you may like it. You’ve got the work ethic, you’ve got some really good skills and somebody needs somebody. Maybe their kids just don’t want to farm. I really enjoy putting folks together like that,” he said.

Farmer optimism improved in October

By Erica Quinlan AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

WEST LAFAYET TE, Ind. — The Purdue University, CME Group Ag Economy Barometer improved 15 points to a reading of 136 in October, indicating more optimism among farmers.

“The improvement in the barometer was driven by increases in both of the barometer’s sub-in- Mintert dices, the Index of Current Conditions and the Index of Future Expectations,” explained Jim Mintert, director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture at Purdue.

Farmers were more favorable about making large investments on their farms, Mintert said.

Farmers also were more optimistic about farmland prices. “ W he n we a s ke d about their expectations for farmland prices 12 months ahead, 16% of them said they expect to see higher prices over the next year, compared to

11% last month,” Mintert said.

“When we asked them to look ahead five years, 53% of the respondents in our survey said they expected to see higher farmland values five years from now, compared to 49% a month earlier.”

Farmers were asked about their planting plans next spring.

Approximately 25% of corn and soybean producers said they did not plan to increase or decrease their acreage of those two crops in 2020.

However, 14% of corn growers and 12% of soybean growers in the survey said they intended to increase their acreage of those two crops, respectively.

THE ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY IN HERBICIDE APPLICATIONS Controlling over 350 species of weeds including Palmer amaranth, waterhemp, marestail, velvetleaf, and kochia, the Roundup Ready® Xtend Crop System has become the number one soybean trait platform in the industry.1 Built on exceptional germplasm, it offers tolerance to both dicamba and glyphosate herbicides, consistently high yields, and wields one of the best disease packages on the market.

Hummel started working with her family’s goat business at a young age by

showing goats for her 4-H project. “We expanded in high school and I started working at our farm which grew into a passion for working with the goats,� she said. “We have about 250 does that are kept to bred through embryo transfer work and about 75 does that are naturally bred in our breeding program,� she said.

Hummel Livestock markets goats through online auctions. “Our target is to sell wethers to 4-H and FFA families for showing,� Hummel said. “We also sell does that can be used for both show projects and breeding stock.�

In addition to her projects and competing in career development events, Hummel also served as her chapter reporter and chapter president during both her junior and senior year.

The FFA winner is attending Lake Land College and studying animal science, and she also is a

member of the livestock judging team. “I plan to transfer to a university to complete my degree in animal science and likely continue livestock judging,� Hummel said. “I’m not sure if I will go to vet school, but it’s an option,� she said. “But regardless if I do or not, I plan to come home to the family farm to take over the goat and cat businesses.�

Advised by Diana Loschen, Hummel said, participating in FFA activities has helped her grow in many ways including public speaking. “It has helped me with everything from organization, time management and record-keeping skills to how to handle myself in an interview with eight judges,� she said.

From The Fields

CHANNEL SEEDSMEN TARGET MORE SUCCESS FOR CUSTOMERS IN 2020 VISIT CHANNEL.COM/PROTECTION

Snow and cold Welcome to February?

Nope, it’s November.

Five inches of snow fell Sunday night into Monday, and now we have subzero overnight temperatures with single-digit daytime temperatures. As I sit here typing, we are sitting with temperature of 1 above with a real feel of -9 degrees. The good thing is the snow didn’t stick to the corn and at these cold temperatures any snow that is on it should flow through the combine, so we should be back at it later today.

Last week, we were able to cross some fields off the harvest list, both corn and beans. It always feels good when you see lines drawn through field names that are completely done for the year. We also were able to get our bedding for the cattle baled and hauled into the shed for storage before this round of snow and cold hit.

Moved around quite a bit

with the combine looking for the fields with the driest corn to run, but everything I tried was wetter than the first variety we are now completely done with. We have found moistures anywhere between 18.6% and 27.8%, and this is a fairly common occurrence across the region when I have talked with other famers.

Slowing down the corn process is the shortage of liquid propane on the pipeline available for delivery to customers.

Locals are sending trucks to Kansas and other places to bring LP back to keep customers’ grain dryers going and to keep homes warm. The issue isn’t only in LP. Natural gas has cut line pressures some places to keep up with home heat, but not enough pressure to feed dryers. There is not a shortage overall. The storage caverns are full, but the pipelines are not pushing product through, so the shortages are at the local levels.

Keep in mind your local provider is just as frustrated as you when they

can’t get the product they have ordered into them for delivery to customers.

Shortages have pushed some to let the combine sit idle and get the chisels and fall NH3 applications going while they wait.

Others switched back to beans, which was a good plan with a few sunny days at the end of the week.

Frustrating, but we are making progress.

When I ran a quick errand, it was amazing how many fields were taken off this past week. We get a lot accomplished and are quite efficient, but it’s a draining year when it seems nothing goes as planned. Be careful out there and take a little time to enjoy the colorful sunsets and beauty of the nature around when you are in the fields and around the countryside.

Kimberly Meier RIDOTT, IL

Propane shortage Another round of harvest delays with snow on Monday. Not entirely sure how many inches of snow we had as it was blowing and drifting. We finished

cutting beans Thursday last week, and only have about 80 acres of corn left.

Hopefully, we can get some decent weather at the end of this week so we can finish up.

We are having a problem getting liquid propane around the area, so drying the last of our corn could be challenging. There were a lot of crops taken out last week with the good weather, so hopefully another week of good weather will help get the rest of the crops out in this area. Hope everyone has a safe end of harvest.

Michael Moore MONMOUTH, IL

Moving forward We all need to remember our past to help us move forward better in life. But that doesn’t mean we have to dwell on our past. We are nearing the end of harvest for a year that will never be forgotten for most, if not all, of

ag industry. This has been one of the most troubling years for so many people. But I do feel blessed to have a crop to harvest, and we have almost completed it safely and without too much trouble so far.

We are down to the last few farms of corn.

Dad harvested what my brother and I called his cover crop beans this last week. They were beans spread on wheat stubble on July 17 and worked in with a worn-out vertical tillage tool. Never would have dreamed of them producing anything. But it looks like they made about 20 bushels to the acre. “Some days, you just get lucky,” is what I told dad.

The corn is nearing the end for us. We are hopefully going to be winding down harvest this coming week. But we will see what Mother Nature has in store for us as there is snow in the forecast. That

will slow things down, but with cold temps may not slow us down that much.

We have started getting the tile equipment back running, but I keep getting pulled in as a trucker and combine driver, so it’s still slow. We have lots of work to get done, and I am thankful for patient customers. Life has taught me that our story is not completely written yet. But things we go through help to make us better people and guide us through life.

But one important thing to keep in mind is that what’s in our past is in our past. We need to learn from it and better ourselves. If we dwell on misfortune or failure, that is all we will have moving forward. When we allow God to work in our lives and grow from our past, there are great things in store. As we all begin to gather families for holidays, let’s all be thankful for our blessings in our lives and help each other grow from our pasts.

James Ramsey

I thought I’d give it a try.

I put a net fence around the perimeter and turned in the sheep, kind of. It was so thick they didn’t want to go in. After seven days of grazing, I pulled them out using my two border collies because it was still hard to walk through. Now you can see through it and walk through it and the sheep ate every leaf from the ground up to about 4 feet.

Not bad considering it was pines, scrub brush, a lot of honeysuckle, poke weed, volunteer trees, multiflora rose, raspberry bushes and a little bit of grass.

Back at home, I’d flown on cereal rye, oats and

turnips over my standing beans on Sept. 26. I got three-quarters of an inch rain a day later and got good germination. I was feeling pretty good about my cover crop until I realize my knee-high beans had pods almost touching the ground. Yep, we laid the header on the ground and ran all of that stuff through the combine at about 1 mph.

The oats were about 4 inches tall. The combine operator has not talked to me since. Oops. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and give thanks for all that we have, mistakes included.

Kidding put aside, I really thought I had done something at my place to cause the poor growth. I’m 10 miles away now with the old ewe flock grazing permanent grass pastures that only get grazed once a year and the yield is down here also.

the flock is now. For free, of course. It started out as a windbreak around a group of farm buildings, and nobody took care of it for a long time, about 50 years. There were originally two rows of honeysuckle around the edge with pines and a few good trees planted in certain areas. But you know what happens when you don’t take care of a place — nature takes over, especially with honeysuckle. This was five acres that I could not see through, barely walk through in certain areas and could not walk through in others.

CHANNEL SEEDSMEN TARGET MORE SUCCESS FOR CUSTOMERS IN 2020 DUSTIN FOUCH, CHANNEL SEEDSMAN, GRAND JUNCTION, IOWA

Channel Seedsmen take product placement to the next level with an intense season-long evaluation plan called the Field Check Up Series. A series of field visits to customers’ fields, the Field Check Up Series is conducted four times a year at the seedling, vegetative, reproductive and maturity plant stages, and is recapped with a Custom Crop Report to help put the growing season into focus.

“With the Channel Field Check Up Series, it’s all about going through each customer’s fields and evaluating what worked, because every year is different,” says Dustin Fouch, a Channel Seedsman from Grand Junction, Iowa.

“The information I gather during those visits comes together in a Custom Crop Report so I can sit down with each customer and put together a plan that’s even more on target for 2020.”

With increased levels of disease prevalent in fields this year, Fouch says the data collected during Field Check Up Series visits and logged in the Climate FieldView™ platform is extremely valuable for product selection decisions.

“The Climate FieldView platform is just another added dimension to what we’re doing with the Field Check Up Series visits,” Fouch says. “We can use the FieldView platform to gather data about plant health, stalk quality, disease pressure and general plant performance for solid recommendations.”

Applauding Harvest Moments with #ChannelCelebrates During harvest, Channel has celebrated the successes of the season with farmers on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter with #ChannelCelebrates.

No win has been too big or small to applaud! See the posts @ChannelSeed.

Many Channel products feature robust disease tolerance. But farmers with fields that annually experience yielddamaging disease pressure should ask their Channel Seedsman about Channel® Protexus™ corn products.

Channel Protexus corn provides tolerance against five yield-robbing diseases: anthracnose stalk rot, Goss’s wilt, northern corn leaf blight, gray leaf spot and southern rust of corn.

“Not one of these diseases shows up every year,” says Fouch. “Channel Protexus corn provides broad-spectrum disease tolerance, and that’s important because every year is different.”

Channel Protexus corn products result from a rigorous selection process using field-tested, precision breeding. Along with the knowledge and expertise provided by Channel Seedsmen, Channel Protexus corn helps farmers reduce yield losses associated with corn diseases.

Talk to your local Channel Seedsman about Channel Protexus products, or visit Channel.com/Protection for more information.

Ag Coast of America expanding Ingredients in place to feed the world ST. LOUIS — The Ag Coast of America is expanding to lead the world in addressing global food security concerns. Strategically located in the center of the world’s agriculture production, the bi-state St. Louis region is recognized as a world leader in agriculture technology research and grain barge handling capacity.

With the world population expected to grow by 25% and exceed 10 billion people over the next 30 years, the need for efficient production and movement of food is more critical than ever.

Meeting that need has become a unifying mission for three economic development organizations in the St. Louis region — St. Louis Regional Freightway, the World Trade Center and 39 North.

Collectively, they aim to increase global agriculture production by cultivating the ecosystem within an expanded Ag Coast footprint that encompasses the region’s unmatched concentrations of talent, capital, facilities, ag tech companies and producers.

Currently, 50% of U.S. crops and livestock are produced within a 500mile radius of the St. Louis region, including approximately 80% of corn and soybean acreage.

As a result, the region boasts a strong grower community, highlighted by the National Corn Growers Association, United Soybean Board and American Soybean Association being headquartered in the region.

Within close proximity are leading academic and research institutions and an abundance of ag-tech companies that provide a vast range of technological and innovation resources.

Just as important as the production of food will be moving it across the globe, and the St. Louis region is well equipped to handle the demand. The region’s inland port system — ranked most efficient in the nation by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers — will facilitate the movement of commodities from America’s Heartland to countries with the most explosive growth.

Together, these assets position the St. Louis region as a global leader in food production and distribution, and the three collaborating economic development agencies are leveraging them to the meet the food scarcity challenge ahead.

SETTING RECORDS The St. Louis region is internationally recognized for advancing plant science and ag tech around the globe and has attracted more than 1,000 plant scientists — the highest concentration anywhere in the world.

Experts contribute to world-class research institutions, including the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, the Missouri Botanical Garden and a host of noteworthy academic institutions.

Leading multinational corporations, including Bunge North America and Nestle, are headquartered in the St. Louis region, which also is home to the North American headquarters of Bayer Crop Science.

A growing number of small and midsize startups comprise a remarkable regional network of

Port of Metropolitan St. Louis: 70 miles Mississippi River from America’s Central Port to Kaskaskia River as defined by USACE • Port / barge terminal (*total of 133 ports and barge terminals) AG COAST 15 barge transfer facilities operated by ag industry leaders.

over 400 research and development ag-tech companies employing 15,000 people.

The region also is home to multiple incubators and accelerators, as well as the St. Louis Agri-Business Club, a networking group for agricultural interests clustered in the region.

“We’re excited to be a part of the impressive agtech ecosystem that has been carefully cultivated in the St. Louis region,” said Janet Wilding, who heads the 39 North innovation district for the St. Louis Economic Development Partnership and is working to attract top talent worldwide.

“It’s an ecosystem that is attracting both established and start-up companies, as well as significant investment. The innovation coming out of this ag center will have lasting implications as these companies and producers strive to dramatically increase food production to meet future needs.”

FOREIGN INVESTMENT The World Trade Center St. Louis has been working to attract foreign direct investment and conducts regular ag-oriented trade missions.

Research conducted for the WTC by Brookings, as part of the Global Cities Initiative, confirms the St. Louis region’s clear and distinct competitive advantage in attracting FDI is in ag tech and food tech.

“That positioning can be leveraged to put the region front and center on the global stage as the lead player in addressing the issues of hunger and food security,” said Tim Nowak, executive director of the WTC. “As St. Louis’ global profile is raised, and more investors see the region’s strengths and advantages, opportunities to attract FDI will flourish.”

About St. Louis Regional Freightway visit thefreightway.com The St. Louis Regional Freightway is a Bi-State Development enterprise formed to create a regional freight district and comprehensive authority for freight operations and opportunities within eight counties in Illinois and Missouri which comprise the St. Louis metropolitan area. Public sector and private industry businesses are partnering with the St. Louis Regional Freightway to establish the bi-state region as one of the premier multimodal freight hubs and distribution centers in the United States through marketing, public advocacy, and freight and infrastructure development.

About 39 North stlpartnership.com/global-center-of-agtech The St. Louis region is rapidly emerging as a world leader in academic and corporate agtech research and innovation.

To grow the industry and address the coming population growth and the need to secure the global food supply, a master plan was created to brand 39 North. The 39 North Master Plan’s vision is to create an innovation district — located in St. Louis County within Creve Coeur — uniquely positioned to advance the region’s global leadership in plant science and agtech and become a tool for addressing global food security.

About The World Trade Center worldtradecenter-stl.com For more than 25 years, as the international division of St. Louis Economic Development Partnership, the World Trade Center has supported growth for the region’s businesses, most importantly, ensuring St. Louis companies are represented in an increasingly global marketplace. From customized research to trade training, hosting inbound and outbound delegations and managing St. Louis’ Foreign Trade Zone, WTC brings together a strong system of business and government agencies to support trade and investment and enhance St. Louis’ global connectivity.

Following Bayer’s $60 billion merger with Monsanto, Missouri now is the No. 1 state in the nation for foreign direct investment, and the wins keep coming.

Recently, Bunge announced plans to relocate its global headquarters from New York to the St. Louis region as it seeks to leverage the ag production and distribution already concentrated in this area and the Mississippi River and its tributaries, which are key to the company’s export market.

The region also recently attracted the North

American headquarters of Centro de Tecnologia Canavieira, the world’s largest sugarcane technology company. Fast-growing Benson Hill Biosystems is also growing and building a new headquarters in the 39 North district.

A mong the innovations coming out of the region are those related to plant productivity and resilience, nutrition and protein improvements, nutrient uptake, crop protection, advanced breeding technologies, water monitoring sensors, soil health, microbials, cover crops,

genomic modeling, data analytics and more.

“The challenge is clear, we must produce more food and fuel with less impact on natural resources and the environment,” said Sam Fiorello, Donald Danforth Plant Science Center chief operating officer and BioResearch and Development Grow t h Park president.

“The region’s focus and success in growing our innovation community including talent, capital and critical infrastructure are accelerating discoveries and new technology developments that will benefit farmers and consumers across the world.”

EFFICIENCY As ag production increases, the Ag Coast of America will become increasingly important. At its core is a 15-mile section of the Mississippi River in the St. Louis region delivering the highest level of grain barge handling anywhere along the Mississippi River, providing the northernmost ice-free and lock-free access on the Mississippi River to and from the Gulf of Mexico.

The latest data from the USACE reveals the St. Louis Regional Ports held onto the top ranking as the nation’s most efficient inland port district in terms of tons moved per river mile during 2017.

The data further reveals the 70-mile St. Louis regional port system represents only 8% of the 855-mile section of the Mississippi River from Minneapolis to the Ohio River near Cairo, Illinois, yet carried 39% of the 2016 freight.

“The amount of river business in the St. Louis region has disproportionately increased over the past three decades,” said David Jump, president of the Cahokia, Illinois-based American Milling.

He said that in addition to increasing demand in the industry for the transfer of grain, the bi-state region’s barge transfer facilities are earning recognition as a more cost-effective and efficient means to ship products to the Gulf Coast compared to other locations further north.

“This region is a rail and interstate highway gateway,” Jump said. “It is more cost-effective to move commodities into, out of and through St. Louis by combinations of truck, rail and barge than points upstream on the Mississippi and Illinois Rivers. Barge loading and unloading capacity has expanded in the St. Louis area to take advantage of these train rates and barge freight rate adjustments.”

According to Jump, the three highest capacity grain barge loading facilities in the entire inland waterway are located in Cahokia. They are operated by Consolidated Grain and Barge Co., Louis Dreyfus and China National Cereals, Oils and Foodstuffs Corp.

“Our world-class freight network is just one of the critical ingredients enabling the St. Louis region to take on the world’s food shortage,” said Mary Lamie, Bi-State Develop-ment’s multi modal enterprises executive vice president.

“Through creativity and collaboration, we have maximized our strategic location for transportation and ag production and have built the talent pool, capital and research capabilities required to address food scarcity for the next 50 years.

“This level of cooperation and commitment from a region that includes two states and over 15 counties is unprecedented, and it is attracting other forward thinkers and businesses to our region to tackle this important global challenge.”

USDA leases downtown office space for its Kansas City site WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — The U.S. Department of Agriculture is renting permanent office space for two of its research agencies in downtown Kansas City, Missouri, despite the union concerns that relocation from the nation’s capital has left the agencies critically understaffed and lacking vital expertise.

Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue said in a news release Oct. 31 that the agencies had been “hard at work” at a temporary site in the city for the past month and that the signing of a permanent lease was “an important next step to facilitate their long-term efficiency, effectiveness, and service to our customers.”

The USDA announced plans in June to move roughly 550 employees of the Economic Research Service and the National Institute of Food and Agriculture by the end of September to the Kansas City area.

Congressional delegations and the governors of Kansas and Missouri heralded the high-paying jobs

and economic boost the relocation would bring to the region, as well as the benefits to the nearby producers the agencies serve.

“The region is not only a hub for agriculture in America’s heartland, but it is also proving to be a diverse talent pool in proximity to many land-grant and research universities,”

Perdue said.

The USDA also will be partnering with the University of Missouri and Kansas State University to host a joint career expo at Kansas State Olathe.

“It is a great way to introduce our agencies to the communities there,” USDA spokeswoman Tara Weaver-Missick said.

The department said it is the process of recruiting more than 100 new staffers for both agencies in Missouri. It has extended relocation dates for some existing workers and brought in re-employed annuitants, shor t-term contractors and employees from other federal agencies to help with the transition.

Mason County 4-H Federation members recognized a need in their community and partnered with other community volunteers to help meet it. The 4-H teens coordinated a summer-time food drive that brought in over 250 food items in addition to baby diapers, toiletries and monetary donations.

“Built in America”

4-H Federation food drive helps stock county pantries HAVANA, Ill. — Members of the Mason County 4-H Federation Club teamed up with local law enforcement officers to host a food drive as a service learning project.

Using the 2019 county fair as a collection site, the goals of the club were to partner with other community volunteers and to collect healthy food donations to benefit county food pantries.

Through the project planning process, the officers shared with federation members their observations of the need for food assistance across the county.

According to the 2018 Illinois School Report Card statistics, all of the Mason County school districts have one or more schools with a 49% or greater student population coming from low-income households. Countywide, approximately 250 families use the resources provided by local food pantries that are operated solely by volunteers.

Mason City Food Pantry Director Barbara McGrew reported that food donations tend to be less in the summer months while generosity is greater during holiday seasons.

Sharon France, volunteer president FOOD PANTRY AT CENTRAL CHRISTIAN CHURCH

rely heavily on healthy food and monetary donations to be able to support the demand. Many of the county food recipients are the elderly population living on fixed incomes.

One in five Illinois children under the age of 18 face hunger daily. Illinois ranks 26th in the nation when it comes to the number of children facing food insecurity.

An estimated 745,300 children are living in food-insecure homes. This represents 23% of Illinois youth under the age of 18.

When asked about volunteerism, Sharon France, volunteer president of the Food Pantry at Central Christian Church in Havana, said, “It’s about helping people in need in our community. It’s about giving of your personal time, serving others with a friendly face and kindness, regardless of their circumstances. It’s about going the extra mile, whether it is at your job or as a volunteer.”

She hopes these are the values that are instilled in the 4-H members and that they will continue with service to others throughout their lives.

As a result of the 4-H Federation food drive, over 250 cans of food and non-perishable items were collected, as well as baby diapers, toiletries, and monetary donations. 4-H youth had the opportunity to work together with food pantry volunteers to help stock the shelves with the donated items.

Service learning projects like this are a primary focus of the Mason County 4-H program. Youth involved in 4-H learn to work together to identify needs and the best way to help address them.

LEGAL IN THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR THE FIFTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT OGLE COUNTY, ILLINOIS FLOYD SCHULTZ, STANLEY BLUNIER, and BRAD RISKEDAL, individually and as class representatives on behalf of all of the minority unitholders of ILLINOIS RIVER ENERGY HOLDINGS, LLC, Plaintiffs, v.

SINAV LIMITED, GTL RESOURCES USA, INC., GTL RESOURCES LIMITED, GTL RESOURCES PLC, SIEM KAPITAL, AS, NORTH ATLANTIC VALUE LLP, SIEM INDUSTRIES, INC., GTL CAMBRIDGE LLC, RICHARD H. RUEBE, JEFFREY W. LEMAJEUR, VINCENT J. KWASNIEWSKI, and NEAL T. JAKEL, Defendants.

No. 2014 L 15 NOTICE OF PENDENCY OF CLASS ACTION TO: All minority unitholders who held units in Illinois River Energy Holdings, LLC (“IREH”) as of January 30, 2012 PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY. THIS NOTICE RELATES TO THE PENDENCY OF THIS CLASS LITIGATION AND IF YOU ARE A CLASS MEMBER CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION AS TO YOUR RIGHTS Pursuant to 735 ILCS 5/2-803 and pursuant to the Order of the Circuit Court of Ogle County, dated January 31, 2019, YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED: DEFINITION OF THE CLASS

By Order dated January 31, 2019, the Court has certified this action (the “Action”) as a class action pursuant to 735 ILCS 5/2-802, consisting of: All the minority unitholders who held units in IREH as of January 30, 2012, the date of the squeeze-out merger in issue in this action. Excluded from the class are defendants and their families and their legal representatives, heirs, successors or assigns and any entity in which defendants have a controlling interest (“the Class”).

This notice is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, an expression of any opinion by the Court regarding the final outcome of any claims or defenses asserted. This notice is sent to advise you of the pendency of this action and of your rights with respect to this action.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTION The Action commenced on May 20, 2014, when Plaintiffs Floyd Schultz, Stanley Blunier, and Brad Riskedal filed the Complaint which asserted allegations and claims on behalf of the Class. The Complaint alleged that the Defendants named in the caption on the first page of this Notice breached duties to the Class in connection with the merger in the first quarter of 2012 that required the Class to relinquish their units in Illinois River Energy Holdings, LLC (“IREH”) for $1.10 per unit.

In 2012, the IREH majority unitholder (GTL) decided to pursue a merger of IREH into a GTL entity whereby IREH minority unitholders would relinquish their ownership interests in exchange for a cash payment. The Complaint alleges that, under controlling Delaware law, the Defendants – including the GTL-controlled IREH board members Messrs. Ruebe, Lemajeur, Kwasniewski, and Jakel – needed to ensure that the merger process and price was fair to the Class. The Complaint alleges that the Defendants breached fiduciary duties and the IREH Limited Liability Company Agreement (“LLC Agreement”) due to an unfair merger process and price. The Complaint alleges that other Defendants improperly aided and abetted the breaches of fiduciary duties and interfered to cause the breaches of the LLC Agreement.

Plaintiffs seek to recover damages associated with the unfair price that the Class received for units in 2012 together with disgorgement of Defendants’ profits, punitive damages, and other relief that the Court deems fit to award.

THE RIGHTS OF CLASS MEMBERS (a) You have the following options: (1) You may remain a member of the Class. To remain a member of the Class, you do not have to take any action. If you remain a member of the Class, you will be bound by any judgment in the action, whether favorable or unfavorable. As a member of the Class, you may share in the recovery, if any, and you will be barred from prosecuting your own claim. If judgment is rendered in favor of Defendants, the Class will be denied any recovery from this Action. You will automatically be considered a member of the Class, unless you request exclusion in accordance with the procedure set forth below.

(2) You may exclude yourself from the Class. Any member of the Class may be excluded, but only upon specific request. If you wish to be excluded from the Class, you must ask the Court to exclude you from the Action by mailing a signed letter requesting exclusion to: Schultz et al. v. Sinav et al., 2014 L 15 Ogle County Circuit Clerk 105 S. 5th Street, Oregon, IL 61061 (b) If you file a request for exclusion as described in the previous paragraph, your request for exclusion must set forth your name, address and telephone number, and the name and number of the Action (Schultz et al. v. Sinav et al., 2014 L 15). Such request must be postmarked within 45 days of the date of this notice. If your request for exclusion is timely mailed, you will be excluded from the Class. If excluded, you will not be bound by the results of the Action, and you will also not share in any recovery that benefits the Class. (c) If you do not request exclusion, you will be represented by the Plaintiffs and their counsel, who have been appointed Class Counsel by the Court, unless you enter an appearance through counsel of your own choice. You are not required to obtain your own counsel, but if you choose to do so, your counsel must file an appearance on your behalf within 45 days of the date of this notice, and mail copies of such appearance to the attorneys listed below. (d) If you remain a member of the Class and change your address, send written notification of your change of address to the Ogle County Circuit Clerk. (e) By remaining in the Class, you will not subject yourself to any obligation to pay the costs of the Action. With respect to the Class, all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, will be paid from any recovery obtained on behalf of the Class or by Defendants, as such payment may be approved and ordered by the Court.

Filling China’s pork gap

Biodiesel a year-round success story Biodiesel is one of the Illinois soybean checkoff program’s greatest success stories.

This renewable fuel, made from Doug soybean oil, contributes Schroeder to cleaner air and fewer Illinois greenhouse Soybean gas emissions Association and puts more money in the pockets of growers like you and me.

The numbers are pretty astounding. Did you know that biodiesel increases the price of soybeans by 63 cents per bushel?

One of the best ways to contribute to the value of soybeans is for growers to use biodiesel in our trucks, tractors and combines. When growers fill up our tanks with biodiesel on the farm, we’re not only using the soybeans we grow, we’re helping increase their market value.

The biodiesel industry also supports about 2,000 Illinois jobs, both directly and indirectly. Biodiesel backs a healthy Illinois economy, and that’s a well-deserved nod to the hard-working soybean growers in the Prairie State.

The Illinois Soybean Association contributes to a healthier environment and stronger economy by promoting use of higher biodiesel blends like B20. For example, ISA and American Lung Association partnered several years ago to form the B20 Club.

The B20 Club recognizes Illinois-based fleets committed to running on biodiesel blends of 20% or greater. Members include municipal fleets, mass transit companies, utilities and trucking companies and use millions of gallons of B20 each year.

The impact of these fleets can be seen far and wide. In fact, the B20 Club’s annual reduction in CO2 emissions last year was equivalent to planting 230,000 trees. But, beyond reducing GHG emissions, biodiesel is making great strides year-round for both growers and truckers.

As we head into colder months, you may be thinking: “But I can’t use biodiesel in winter.” However, I can say from personal experience that biodiesel performs in any kind of weather, including sub-zero temperatures. The truth is that winter can be hard on all diesel engines, not just those running on biodiesel.

Whether we like it or not, the weather is quickly getting colder and now is the time to start preparing diesel-fueled vehicles for winter. Biodiesel is an all-weather fuel and with proper maintenance, you can expect a problem-free experience.

In fact, maintenance and basic housekeeping keep all diesel engines running smoothly, whether they are fueled with biodiesel or regular diesel fuel.

Here are a few tips from ISA biodiesel experts to keep in mind when preparing for winter: n Water is the common source of plugged fuel filters. Excess water in tanks can freeze when temperatures drop below 32 degrees, blocking the flow of fuel through the filter. n Cold-flow properties can affect performance. The cloud point indicates the temperature at which wax crystals appear and the cold filter plugging point generally indicates the lowest temperature for vehicle operation. n Using winter fuel additives can help prepare fuel for low temperatures. Fuel additives help lower the cold filter plugging point and improve the flow of fuel during freezing temperatures.

I’m happy to tell you that diesel engines require no modifications to run on biodiesel, the BQ-9000 testing program ensures biodiesel producers meet strict ASTM specifications for proper fuel performance, and biodiesel is approved by major vehicle and equipment manufacturers.

If you’re not already using biodiesel, talk to your fuel supplier about how you can make the switch to this cleaner, more economical fuel choice.

Whether you’re a grower or a trucker, now’s the time to gain the economic, environmental and health benefits of biodiesel.

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

MEXICO CITY – U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue led an agricultural trade mission to Mexico in an effort to forge new opportunities with the country.

Perdue was joined by more than 100 industry and government representatives on the Nov. 6-8 trip.

Mexico is U.S. agriculture’s largest bilateral trading partner and second-largest export market.

“We achieved our goals, generating new export opportunities for our collaborators and cooperators here,” Perdue said. “We had about 600 bus-

iness -to -business meetings there. It helped to generate new export opportunities.”

Mexico is the No. 1 export market for U.S. corn, dairy, poultry and eggs, sugar and sweeteners, distillers dried grains and rice.

It also ranks among the top destinations for an assortment of processed foods and beverages, as well as other key products including soybeans, beef, pork, wheat and fresh fruits and vegetables.

During the trade mission, Perdue i nv ited Mex ica n Agriculture Minister Víctor Manuel Villalobos Arámbula to attend the USDA Agricultural Outlook Forum in February.

Villalobos accepted the invitation.

“We had a formal bilateral meeting with Secretary Villalobos and his whole staff,”

Perdue said. “We discussed various issues between us, such as biotechnology.”

Labor and immigration also were discussed on the trip.

“We both agreed that a modernized H-2A program where they pre-certify people who are qualified to come here, and help to train those workers and teach them what is expected in a more formal way, will allow our producers here in the U.S. to have a pool of people from which to draw from,” Perdue said.

Perdue said such a program would allow farm workers to work in the United States in a legitimate, government-to-government certified manner.

Push for USMCA passage

By Erica Quinlan

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

MEXICO CITY — Trade partners in Mexico are anxiously waiting for the U.S. Congress to ratify the United States-MexicoCanada Agreement.

Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue recently visited Mexico as part of an agricultural trade mission, where trade was discussed by leaders of both countries.

“Certainly, the USMCA came up,” Perdue said.

“Mexico, as we are, is anxious to have that ratified. They’ve already done their work, and they’re anxious for us to complete our task here.

“They still seem to be very pleased with the provisions of USMCA. They don’t expect any major changes there, and I don’t think Ambassador (Robert) Lighthizer does, as well. He feels the issues he’s

been negotiating with on the Democratic side are attainable and can be done.”

Perdue would like to see progress sooner than later.

“I think the later it goes, the longer it becomes entangled in politics that would not be helpful to the agreement,” he said. “We certainly don’t want to forfeit (USMCA) on the altar of politics.”

Mexico is the second-largest export market of agricultural

products from the United States, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Over the last decade, U.S. agricultural exports to Mexico grew 48% from $12.9 billion to $19.1 billion in 2018.

According to the Purdue University Ag Economy Barometer, a survey of 400 U.S. farmers, most believe it’s critical for the USMCA to pass.

“Ninety-six percent said (USMCA) was either important or very important to the health of the ag economy,” said Jim Mintert, director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture at Purdue University.

“But only 55% of them said that they think it is likely that the trade agreement will be approved soon by the U.S. Congress.”

DES MOINES, Iowa — China will recover from African swine fever and rebuild its swine herd.

But even as it does, there still could be a place for U.S. pork — provided the industry can get in prime position to cater to a changing Chinese consumer demand.

“Pork 2040: A China Market Assessment” is a study that examined the current pork demand situation in China and what the demand — and supply — will likely be going forward.

“The goal of the China market assessment was to enable the U.S. pork industry to design and implement a long-term strategy for U.S. pork consumption in China,” said Norman Bessac, vice president of international marketing for the National Pork Board.

The study found that there is a place for U.S. pork exports, but exporters need to position themselves to recognize changing demographics in China and changing tastes of Chinese consumers.

“Exporters will need to work to position U.S. pork and products as the supplier of choice for the long term, that’s looking beyond the ASF. It’s important that the U.S. industry positions itself for the long term,” said Rupert Claxton, meat director of Gira, the global research firm that conducted the study.

“As we get toward 2025, China’s domestic production will be rebounding.”

Rupert Claxton, meat director GIRA

The study was funded by Pork Checkoff and the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service Emerging Market Program.

The study was started before the first announcement of African swine fever, but Claxton said the study does take into consideration the short-term and long-term impacts of the deadly disease — and China’s response to it.

“African swine fever is a black swan event. When we set out to do this study, it was just on the radar. Even today we are still grappling with the exact understanding of the implications,” Claxton said.

The shortfalls in global meat supplies and specifically in pork supplies in China will be short term.

“There will be opportunities for U.S. pork exports to fill a short-term gap because of the short-term supply deficit in China, and that is huge and to some extent will be distracting,” Claxton said.

Claxton said China will recover its domestic pork production, posing challenges to future demand for imported pork.

“As we get toward 2025, China’s domestic production will be rebounding. We’ll see the import position will change. Imported products will be displaced in the market,” Claxton said.

That recovery also will see a changed Chinese pork industry, one more focused on efficiency and biosecurity.

“China will work aggressively to create one of the world’s largest scale and most efficient pig supply chains in the near term.

Major pork farms will modernize and become larger, involving huge private investment and restocking of farms,” said Randy Spronk, a past president of the National Pork Producers Council and a pig and crop farmer from Edgerton, Minnesota.

Jack Shao, international sales and marketing manager for Hormel Foods, said the future opportunities, post ASF, for U.S. pork will be in value-added products.

“Long term, importing pork will become a value-added activity to be carried out by the exporters who are as good at the Chinese at producing, marketing and meeting the demands of customers. These will be the key things that exporters will need to keep in mind to be successful in the Chinese market,” Shao said.

Don’t get bugged by fall house guests

NATIONAL FFA AGRICULTURAL PROFICIENCY AWARD

YOUR GARDENING CHECKLIST FOR NOVEMBER INDOOR PLANTS AND ACTIVITIES

URBANA, Ill. — As the weather gets colder and the days get shorter, we often start seeing uninvited insect guests in our homes, according to University of Illinois Extension educator Ken Johnson.

BOXELDER BUGS Boxelder bugs are commonly found trying to enter houses, especially if there’s a boxelder tree nearby. These insects are about one-half inch long and black with orange or red markings.

During the spring and summer, the adults will feed on leaves and seeds of boxelder trees Boxelder bug and, occasionally, maple and ash trees.

When temperatures begin to cool in the fall, they will begin to seek out warmer areas.

“They are most often attracted to buildings with large southern or western exposures, because they are warmer than the surrounding area,” Johnson said.

As they aggregate on a building, they will find cracks and other spaces to squeeze into, occasionally making their way indoors and ending up in walls and attics until warm weather returns.

LADY BEETLES Multicolored Asian lady beetles also are commonly found attempting to make their way into homes. According to Johnson, these lady beetles were introduced into the United States to control aphids on pecan trees. Since their introduction, they have spread throughout the country.

The beetles vary in color from yellow to reddish-orange and have anywhere from zero to 19 spots. They can often be distinguished from other lady beetles by the presence of an “M” pattern near their head.

In their native China, they will overwinter on tall cliffs.

“Since we lack these in most parts of Illinois, they will instead use buildings to overwinter,” Johnson said.

STINK BUG The brown marmorated stink bug, on the rise in Illinois, is the final home invader. This stink bug is native to Asia and was first discovered in the United States in the late 1990s in Pennsylvania.

Since then, Johnson said, it has quickly spread throughout the country. Like the others, BMSBs also will congregate on buildings looking for somewhere to overwinter.

But unlike boxelder bugs and multicolored Asian lady beetle, these insects are more than a nuisance.

“They will feed on a wide variety of tree fruits, vegetables, agricultural crops and ornamentals and can cause a significant amount of damage,” Johnson said.

They have the typical “shield” shape of stink bugs. And, as their name implies, BSMBs are brown and marmorated, or mottled.

There are a few characteristics that can be used to differentiate them from our native stink bugs: the antenna are striped with white bands, they have smooth “shoulders” and they have black and white triangular patterns on their abdomens.

OTHER INSECTS Several other insects are commonly confused with BMSBs. Johnson recommends contacting your local Extension office if you are unsure.

For all of these insects, the best management strategy for keeping them out of your home is exclusion.

“Make sure windows and doors fit tight and window screens are free from holes.

Seal any openings, cracks and crevices around the foundation, pipes, wires and chimneys.

Finally, make sure siding, eaves, and soffits are in good condition,” Johnson said.

Insecticides can be applied to the perimeter of buildings, but since these insects are rather mobile, it can be difficult to get good control of them.

Once they enter your home, they can be vacuumed up and placed in soapy water and disposed of. Using insecticides to control these insects indoors is generally not recommended.

PETALS & BLOOMS

n Check houseplant leaves for brown, dry edges, which indicates too little relative humidity in the house. Increase humidity by running a humidifier, grouping plants or using pebble trays. n Extend the lives of holiday plants such as poinsettias and Christmas cactus by placing them in a cool, brightly lit area that is free from warm or cold drafts. n Houseplants may not receive adequate light because days are short and gloomy. Move plants closer to windows, but avoid placing foliage against cold glass panes. Artificial lighting may be helpful. n Because growth slows or stops in winter months, most plants will require less water and little, if any, fertilizer. n If you are forcing bulbs for the holidays, bring them into warmer temperatures after they have been sufficiently precooled. Bulbs require a chilling period of about 10 to 12 weeks at 40 degrees to initiate flower buds and establish root growth. Precooled bulbs are available from many garden suppliers, if you did not get yours cooled in time. Then provide two to four weeks of warm temperature, 60 degrees, bright light and moderately moist soil to bring on flowers. n When shopping for a Christmas tree, check for green, flexible, firmly held needles and a sticky trunk base — both indicators of freshness. Make a fresh cut, and keep the cut end under water at all times. n Evergreens, except pines and spruce, can be trimmed now for a fresh supply of holiday greenery.

n Prevent bark splitting of young and thin-barked trees, such as fruit and maple trees. Wrap trunks with tree wrap, or paint them with white latex — not oil-based — paint, particularly on the south- and southwest-facing sides. n Protect shrubs such as junipers and arborvitae from extensive snow loads by tying their stems together with twine. Carefully remove heavy snow loads with a broom to prevent limb breakage. n Protect broadleaved evergreens and other tender landscape plants from excessive drying, or desiccation, by winter sun and wind. Canvas, burlap or polyethylene plastic screens to the south and west protect the plants. Similarly, shield plants from salt spray on the street side. n Provide winter protection for roses by mounding soil approximately 12 inches high to insulate the graft union after plants are dormant and temperatures are cold. Additional organic mulch such as straw compost or chopped leaves can be placed on top.

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

INDIANAPOLIS — Braylee Finck did not expect her love of arranging flowers to place her on the stage of the 92nd National FFA Convention and Expo in Indianapolis.

The Maroa-Forsyth FFA member was selected the national winner of Agricultural Sales – Entrepreneurship proficiency for her floral design business Petals & Blooms.

“Starting off I didn’t know where this was going to take me or how far I could go with this business,” said the daughter of Nick and Selina Finck.

Finck worked with a close family friend that had a floral business.

“I started my business during my freshman year in 2015 because she wanted to step away,” she said. “So, I jumped in because I realized I loved working with flowers, and I didn’t want to give it up.”

For her business, Finck creates arrangements for weddings, funerals and showers.

“My most popular are high school events like proms, homecomings, senior nights and graduations,” she said.

Flower orders increased for Finck each year.

“My freshman year I did about 10 orders for proms and homecomings, and by the time I got to my senior year, I was doing 40 to 50 orders,” she explained. “Not only was I selling them to my high school, I did some for people going to other schools, also.”

Attending the national convention as a finalist for a proficiency award was somewhat difficult for Finck to believe.

“When I was backstage with my adviser, I knew I couldn’t be upset with myself no matter the outcome because I had made it that far,” said the national winner, who is advised

by Cassie Crouch.

“On stage, the only words I

The largest part of her business includes orders for high school activities, such as proms, homecomings, senior nights and graduations. heard were winner and Braylee Finck,” she recalled. “I went to the front of the stage, and it was the best feeling in the world.”

Finck looked out into the huge crowd at the FFA convention and saw her chapter members, family and Illinois FFA members.

“It’s a feeling that’s so hard to explain, it was amazing,” she said.

While in high school, Finck enjoyed competing in greenhand quiz bowl, job interview, creed speaking and the ag sales career development events. She also served her chapter as the sentinel, secretary and president, as well as section sentinel.

Finck is currently a freshman at Lincoln Land Community College, where she is studying ag business.

“I plan to transfer to Murray State University to complete my degree,” she said. “For my career goals, I’m thinking about a marketing position at an agricultural company.”

In addition, the national

winner plans to continue her Petals & Blooms business on a smaller scale than she did as a high school student.

“I’ve also thought about it as a future career, but now my goals are to go into the marketing area and continue this business as a side job,” Finck said.

Through her involvement in FFA events, Finck said, she has learned several life skills.

“From the job interview contest, I understand the things I have to do to prepare myself when I’m interviewing for a job,” she said. “Creed speaking helped me with public speaking because I hated talking in front of people, but now I feel comfortable to talk to anyone.”

The ag sales contest helped Finck learn about marketing and through her floral business she gained financial skills, as well as how to develop customer relationships.

FLOWERS, VEGETABLES AND SMALL FRUITS n To protect newly planted or tender perennials and bulbs, mulch with straw, chopped leaves or other organic material after plants become dormant. n Store leftover garden chemicals where they will stay dry, unfrozen and out of the reach of children, pets and unsuspecting adults. n Once the plants are completely dormant and temperatures are consistently below freezing, apply winter mulch to protect strawberries and other tender perennials. In most cases, 2 to 4 inches of organic material such as straw, pine needles, hay or bark chips will provide adequate protection. n Check produce and tender bulbs in storage, and discard any that show signs of decay, such as mold or softening. Shriveling indicates insufficient relative humidity. n Clean up dead plant materials, synthetic mulch and other debris in the vegetable garden, as well as in the flowerbeds, rose beds and orchards. n Make notes for next year’s garden.

Cut back perennials now or later?

By B. Rosie Lerner

Gardeners often ask, “When is the best time to cut back the dead tops of herbaceous perennials? Should we cut them in fall as the tops fade? Or, wait until spring, just before new growth begins?” The answers depend, in part, on the specific plant and whether disease or insect pests are a factor.

For most healthy plants, leaving plant tops over winter is fine and, in many respects, preferable. Many species retain dried seed heads and foliage that may have aesthetic value.

Ornamental grasses are at their best in fall and winter.

Your native wildlife will thank you if you allow the tops to remain. Seed heads, fruits, stems and foliage provide food and shelter.

Although late-season bloom-

Septoria leaf spot lesions on rudbeckia leaves should be cut back and removed from infected plants. ers such as rudbeckia and coneflowers may have turned brown, birds still feed on the seed. Many butterflies overwinter on plant debris.

Allowing plant tops to remain over winter can also help col-

lect leaves and snow for insulation and moisture. For some marginally hardy perennials, like garden mums, waiting until early spring to cut back the dead tops can actually improve a plant’s chances of survival.

Another bonus: Leaving the tops in place will remind you where the plants are, in case you’re thinking of adding more plants or rearranging the elements of the garden before spring growth begins.

On the other hand, plants with disease or insect pest troubles should be pruned back in fall to reduce the chances of carryover to the following season. Sanitation is one of the best investments gardeners can make in reducing problems for next season.

Peonies and rudbeckia with blackened foliage should definitely be cut back in fall. The

same is true for bee balm and phlox, which are routinely plagued by powdery mildew.

Removing iris and asparagus foliage in the fall reduces overwintering sites for the iris borer and asparagus beetles, respectively.

Badly damaged or infested foliage can and should be removed as soon as possible.

Otherwise, wait until after several hard frosts have killed back the tops.

Cut back the tops to about two inches above the soil.

Hand pruners and hedge clippers work fine, if you have just a few plants to cut back. But for larger plantings and large clumps of ornamental grasses, a power hedge trimmer works well.

Lifestyle DONNA’S DAY: CREATIVE FAMILY FUN

Granola recipe prepared in slow cooker is a game-changer

By Donna Erickson

We’re a granola-eating family.

When the tall jar in our pantry reads almost empty, it’s time to stir up and bake a new batch. It’s never a chore, because the fresh

homemade taste of heart-healthy oats with nuts and dried fruit always satisfies, whether combined with yogurt and berries at breakfast, or sprinkled over a scoop of ice cream for an evening dessert.

No wonder I was curious

when a friend suggested I make granola in my slow cooker instead of baking it in the oven.

Skeptical, I gave it a try and loved the results. In fact, it’s a game-changer.

I stick with my basic recipe

that never disappoints. The hand-crafted, economical blend is open to variations, like substituting cashews for the almonds or pecans.

When I buy a jug of fresh local maple syrup, I leave out the

brown sugar entirely. For variety, I’ll cut up something unusual, like dried persimmons, to toss in at the end with the raisins. © 2019 Donna Erickson distributed by King Features Synd.

Turn slow cooker to high. Set a wooden spoon under one side of the lid to hold the lid open, slightly ajar. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours until toasted, stirring mixture well every 30 minutes.

Stir in raisins and spread mixture on a baking sheet to cool. Store in jars or in an airtight container. Makes about 6 cups.

Note: Substitute brown sugar with 1/2 cup maple syrup, honey or agave syrup, and combine with liquid ingredients before tossing with dry ingredients. In addition to (or instead of) raisins, use your favorite dried fruit, chopped.

Gift-Giving Tip: Let kids draw a label to glue to a mason jar.

It might say “The Johnsons’ World’s Best Granola.” For a holiday gift, tie a colorful ribbon around the jar.

Whistle is for the birds

I’d like information about a Mary Gregory vase I own. It’s purple glass with white figures of a girl and boy playing tennis. The vase is cylindrical and is 8 inches tall and 5 inches in diameter. Can you tell me its age and value?

Mary Gregory glass was first made about 1870.

Similar glass is being made today. All early Mary Gregory glass was made in Bohemia. Later it was made in several other European countries.

The first American glassware with Mary Gregorytype decorations was made by the Westmoreland Glass Company beginning in 1957. These pieces had simpler designs, less enamel paint and more modern shapes. Vases like yours are worth about $300. The tennis game adds value.

I have heard that some antiques and vintage items are dangerous to own. Is this true? I am afraid to use my orange Fiesta dishes because friends say they were made with uranium and are radioactive.

Yes, some antique medicines, cosmetics and other objects can be dangerous or even fatal. Most vintage or antique things you buy at shops or shows have been cleaned or checked for dangerous things.

Some are mercury (barometers), flammable materials (stove polish that explodes when heated), arsenic (cleanser for complexion), opium (medicine to relieve pain), morphine (to sooth teething babies), alcohol (a high percentage in bitters, medicines and so forth) and, of course, anything in a bumpy poison bottle or a bottle labeled poison.

Uranium was used in the clay or glaze of some items before the strict food and drug laws were passed in the United States, but some countries still use glazes that are not safe. Your orange dishes are safe to use.

If you find forgotten drugstore stock, clean it carefully in a well-ventilated area. Empty all medicine bottles; children may try to drink something.

I’ve seen some interesting “antique” telephones online and was wondering if they work with modern wiring. I’d like to buy one if I can use it as a phone.

It depends on the mechanism and wiring in the phone. We tried hooking

“I bought a wooden whistle, but it wouldn’t whistle” is part of an old children’s song that goes on to joke about buying a metal whistle. But a modern metal whistle used by a policeman looks very different from the wooden whistle made centuries ago. And today, if a whistle is wood, it usually is carved into an interesting shape or painted to hide the wood surface.

Very early whistles were made from a hollow reed or bird bones. By the 17th century, ceramic whistles were made, often in the shape of an owl or other bird. The center of the whistle held water.

Blowing into a hole on its back made the water move and make a sound.

There also were wind whistles handmade or molded from clay. Many have been made since the 17th century, but few of the early clay bird whistles remain. Most are not marked, but are decorated with an identifiable regional design.

Today you can find a lot of whistles made of pot metal, celluloid or plastic.

An unmarked earthenware bird whistle with colorful paint decoration was sold at a Hess Auction Group auction that featured Pennsylvania wares.

The 4-inch-long bird sold for $212.

New Gleaners, like this one at AC McCartney in Wataga, Illinois, were fitted out with Fendt-engineered cabs two years ago. The light size and weight of Gleaners make them a popular choice for farmers looking to reduce compaction during harvest.

LSW tires cut compaction Trend away from tracks on combine

By Jeannine Otto

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

FULTON, Ill. — At the end of October, it might have looked like combines, tractors and grain carts should have been fitted with skis. They weren’t, but there is one transportation tool that is gaining popularity with farmers during the 2019 harvest.

“We are seeing a big

push toward these large flotation tires on the combines,” said Eric Maloney, store manager of Sloan’s Implement in Fulton.

The big tires are known as LSW, low sidewall, tires.

In times where every penny matters on the farm balance sheet, the tires can offer a cost savings.

“They are a lot cheaper than tracks and a lot less maintenance. They are close to the same performance,” Maloney said.

Sales of the tires have picked up as farmers

switch from tracks.

“We’ve seen a very definite trend toward these big flotation tires, big singles on combines,” Maloney said.

With a second year of an extended harvest in wet conditions, farmers started switching last year.

“What they discovered was big flotation tires are performing well and they have less maintenance, even just keeping them clean and serviced,” Maloney said.

He added that the tires

also could add efficiency to moving equipment from field to field.

“Typically, tracks are a little slower, transport wise, than what the tires are,” he said.

Eggshell qualUniversity of Illinois ity will be improved over Extension poultry spewhat it was at the end of cialist. their first cycle of lay. You can expect about an extra six months of good egg production with good eggshell quality after the hens have been molted.

There are various procedures to induce a flock of hens to molt. Usually, the daily photoperiod or day length needs to be reduced in order to help the hens go out of production.

For a small flock, this day length reduction is not always easily obtained, especially if the birds are allowed to venture out of the house. If you have a building or barn that has somewhat light controlled and the hens are kept in this building and not allowed to roam outside, then a reduction of day length is more easily obtained.

During the production phase, or first cycle, the day length is usually kept at 16 hours of light per day. So, when you want to put your birds in a molt, you will need to decrease this day length to 10 hours per day. This can be accomplished by changing your time clock for the light inside of the building to have no more than eight hours of continuous light. Before you do this, it is advisable to increase the day length inside the building to 24 hours for a week or so. You also will need to put some black cardboard or covering over any windows to make sure that outside light does not enter into the building.

In addition to controlling the duration of light, the hens need to be fed a relatively low-protein and low energy diet.

This will cause them to go out of production, while maintaining enough nutrients to keep them healthy.

During the molting process it is important to monitor body weight loss.

This should not be more than 25%. During the cooler and cold seasons of the year, the hens will lose body weight fairly rapidly within the first 10 days on the molt diet. During the summer, the hens will lose 25% of their starting body weight within about 15 days.

USDA hikes Indiana yields; Illinois, Iowa unchanged

By Tom C. Doran

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Agriculture found one extra bushel per acre of soybeans and three more bushels per acre of corn in Indiana fields since last month’s crop production estimates while leaving Illinois and Iowa unchanged.

Here are the “I” state estimates.

INDIANA The USDA estimated Indiana’s corn yields to average 165 bushels per acre, three above the October estimate. The state averaged 189 bushels per acre

bushels per acre after last year’s 210 bushels per acre. The projected 10.25 million harvested corn acres will produce, if realized, nearly 1.835 billion bushels after production of 2.279 billion bushels a year ago.

USDA also kept Illinois’ average soybean yield the same from last month at 51 bushels per acre. Harvested acres are expected to be 9.94 million resulting in total production of 506.94 million bushels. Illinois produced 666.75 million bushels of soybeans last year with an average yield ILLINOIS The Prairie State’s av- of 63.5 bushels per acre. erage corn yield estimates were unchanged at 179 See USDA, Page D5 last year.

Harvested acres are projected at 4.9 million acres for total Hoosier State production of 808.5 million bushels compared to last month’s 794 million bushel estimate.

The soybean yield in Indiana is projected to average 49 bushels per acre, one up from the October estimate, but 8.5 bushels below 2018. The anticipated 5.37 million harvested acres are estimated to bring in 263.13 million bushels, about 5 million higher than the previous estimate.

USDA FROM PAGE D4

IOWA The USDA put Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s average corn yield at 192 bushels per acre, the same as the previous monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estimate and four bushels below 2018. The anticipated 13.1 million harvested acres are projected to produce slightly over 2.515 billion bushels. Last year, Iowa harvested 12.8 million corn acres and collected 2.509 billion bushels.

Iowa soybeans are estimated to average 53 bushels per acre, unchanged from last month and three below 2018. Harvested acres of 9.13 million could produce 483.89 million bushels. The state saw 9.83 million harvested acres last year produce 550.48 million bushels.

NATIONWIDE U.S. corn production for grain is forecast at 13.7 billion bushels, down 1% from the previous forecast and down 5% from last year.

Based on conditions as of Nov. 1, yields are expected to average 167 bushels per harvested acre, down 1.4 bushels from the previous forecast and 9.4 bushels below from 2018.

Area harvested for grain is forecast at 81.8 million acres, unchanged from the previous forecast, but up slightly from 2018.

The nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soybean production for beans is forecast at 3.55 billion bushels, down slightly from the previous forecast and down 20% from last year.

Yields are expected to average 46.9 bushels per acre, unchanged from the previous forecast, but down 3.7 bushels from 2018. Area harvested for beans in the is forecast at 75.6 million acres, unchanged from the previous forecast, but down 14% from 2018.

CROP COMMENTS The Nov. 1 corn objective yield data indicate the lowest number of ears since 2012 for the combined 10 objective yield states â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota and Wisconsin.

Overall, 58% of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s corn acreage was rated in good to excellent condition on Nov. 3, 10 percentage points below the same time last year.

The November objective yield data for the combined 11 major soybean-producing states â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio and South Dakota â&#x20AC;&#x201D; indicate a lower pod count from the previous year.

Compared with final counts for 2018, pod counts are down in 10 of the 11 published states.

A decrease of more than 200 pods per 18 square feet from the 2018 ďŹ nal pod count is expected in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio and South Dakota.

By Nov. 3, harvest progress was behind the ďŹ veyear average pace in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota and Wisconsin.

The USDA closed the report by showing the 20year record for crops of the differences between the Nov. 1 forecast and the ďŹ nal estimate. Using corn as an example, changes between the Nov. 1 forecast and the ďŹ nal estimate during the last 20 years have averaged 102 million bushels, ranging from 4 million bushels to 214 million bushels.

The Nov. 1 forecast has been below the ďŹ nal estimate seven times and above 13 times. This does not imply that the Nov. 1 corn forecast this year is likely to understate or overstate ďŹ nal production.

Estimates friendly, but not bullish

By Tom C. Doran

AGRINEWS PUBLICATIONS

MINNEAPOLIS — The newest crop production and supply and demand reports lacked any of the bombshells that many had hoped for as farmers continue their struggle to finish the harvest.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s monthly crop balance sheets and production estimates released Nov. 8 were met with a slightly friendly market reaction for corn and wheat and a somewhat negative reaction on the soybean side.

Randy Martinson, Martinson Ag Risk Management, gave a rundown on the latest estimates compared to what the trade had anticipated entering the report in a Minneapolis Grain Exchange-hosted teleconference.

Pre-report trade estimates projected a corn production reduction. How did USDA’s number compare to what the trade was looking for?

The corn numbers were a little bit friendly.

The yield for 2019 was dropped 1.4 bushels per acre from the previous month to 167. That was about one-tenth of a bushel higher than trade expectations.

Corn production was put at 13.66 billion bushels. That’s 118 million bushels lower than the previous month, but it was still 86 million bushels above what the trade had anticipated.

Corn harvested acres were unchanged at 81.8 million acres, that’s 500,000 acres higher than anticipated by the trade.

What were among the highlights on the corn demand side?

AGRINEWS PHOTO/TOM C. DORAN

Wet conditions limited harvest opportunities when this photo was snapped early last week near the border of Livingston and Grundy counties in Illinois.

Feed demand was cut by 25 million bushels, ethanol was cut by 25 million bushels and as expected exports were cut by 50 million bushels putting ending stocks at 1.91 billion bushels. That was 19 million bushels below last month but 154 million bushels above the average trade guess going into the report.

The USDA left the nation’s soybean planted and harvested acres unchanged as well as the yield average unchanged at 46.9 bushels per acre.

The 75.6 million harvested acres was 200,000 acres above trade expectations, and 46.9 bushels per acre was about fourtenths of a bushel above expectations. That left production unchanged at 3.55 billion bushels, about 50 million bushels above what the trade anticipated.

Usage decline hikes soybean stocks

CORN

WASHINGTON — Lower production pushed corn and wheat ending stocks down while lower use offset a drop in production to increase soybean stocks in the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Nov. 8 supply and demand estimates.

Here are the highlights of the government report.

(2019-2020 marketing year):

Soybeans: The seasonaverage price for the 20192020 marketing year is forecast at $9, unchanged from last month’s projections. Why? n Production is forecast at 3.55 billion bushels, down less than 1 million on fractionally lower yields and unchanged harvested area. n Crush was reduced 15 million bushels to 2.11 billion on lower-than expected early-season crush and reduced soybean meal export prospects. n With reduced crush, soybean ending stocks are projected at 475 million bushels, up 15 million from the October estimate. n The foreign oilseed supply and demand forecasts for 20192020 include lower production, crush and stocks compared with last month. Foreign production is forecast at 463.6 million tons, down 3.4 million on lower soybean, cottonseed, sunflower seed and rapeseed production. n Foreign soybean ending stocks were reduced with lower projections for Argentina, Canada and India only partly offset with higher forecasts for Brazil and Egypt.

Corn: USDA increased the anticipated season-average price by a nickel from last month to $3.85 per bushel based on observed prices to

Total corn supply: 15.825 billion bushels Exports: 1.85 billion bushels Feed, residual use: 5.275 billion bushels Food, seed, industrial use: 6.79 billion bushels Ethanol and byproducts: 5.375 billion bushels Ending U.S. corn stocks: 1.91 billion bushels

SOYBEANS Total soybean supply: 4.483 billion bushels Seed, residual: 128 million bushels Exports: 1.775 billion bushels Crush: 2.105 billion bushels Ending U.S. soybean stocks: 475 million bushels

date. Why? n Production is forecast at 13.661 billion bushels, down 118 million from last month on a 1.4-bushel reduction in yield to 167 bushels per acre. n Feed and residual use was reduced by 25 million bushels based on a smaller crop and higher expected prices. n Exports were reduced from 1.9 billion to 1.85 billion bushels reflecting the slow pace of early-season sales and shipments. n Corn used for ethanol was lowered by 25 million bushels based on September data from the grain crushings and co-products production report and weekly ethanol production data as reported by the Energy Information Administration for the month of October. n With supply falling more than use, corn

ending stocks were reduced by 18 million bushels from last month to 1.91 billion bushels. n For Mexico, production was lowered as area for summer season corn is expected to be the lowest on record. n Global corn ending stocks, at 296 million tons, are down 6.6 million.

Wheat: The season-average farm price was lowed by a dime to $4.60 per bushel, based on national agricultural statistics service prices reported to date and expectations for 2019-2020 cash and future prices. Why? n Supplies were decreased by 42 million bushels, based on updated production estimates for the states resurveyed following the Sept. 30 NASS small grains summary. Adjustments to production in those states, where significant acreage remained unharvested in early September, lowers production estimates for hard red spring wheat, white wheat and durum with most reductions occurring in North Dakota and Montana. n Estimated seed use was reduced by 7 million bushels to 61 million, reflecting a projected 2020-2021 all wheat planted acreage of 45 million. n Food use was lowered 5 million bushels to 955 million, primarily based on the NASS flour milling products report, issued Nov. 1. n Projected wheat stocks were reduced 30 million bushels to 1.014 billion. n Global consumption was nearly unchanged at 755.2 million tons, which is 3% greater than last year. n With global supplies rising more than consumption, 2019-2020 ending stocks were raised to a record 288.3 million tons with China comprising 51% of the total.

Farmers, ranchers need USMCA

Zippy Duvall American Farm Bureau Federation

Farmers and ranchers are anxiously awaiting the news that the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement is on its way to Congress for a vote of ratification and that Congress will get it done quickly.

Nearly every day, the question comes up in conversations with farmers and Farm Bureau leaders: When is USMCA going to

get done?

USMCA was signed by all three countries almost exactly one year ago — on Nov. 30, 2018. In the months since then, the Trump administration and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and others in Congress have been negotiating the details of congressional consideration, and we keep hearing that they’re close to a decision about how to move things forward.

Approving USMCA would be a win for Congress and, more importantly, a win for American agriculture. The trade climate has been turbulent, to say the least.

Congress has an opportunity to calm the storm and bring some certainty to our trade outlook. Approving USMCA will show the world that the United States is back in business in the global marketplace.

I’ll be the first to admit that our initial goal in the negotiations to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement was simply to “do no harm,” or at least to keep the gains that we have made over the past 26 years under NAFTA, with agricultural exports quadrupling from $8 billion a year to $38 billion to Canada and Mexico.

But as the negotiations went on and the final USMCA deal was announced, it became clear that we had opportunities to make major improvements for U.S. farmers and ranchers.

First, the agreement is expected to grow U.S. exports by $2 billion a year.

Any market growth is music to our ears these days.

Second, it will fix longstanding problems faced by U.S. dairy products in accessing Canada’s market, with an expected 3.6% of additional market access for U.S. dairy exports.

Wheat also would see fairer treatment under USMCA, thanks to an agreement in USMCA to grade U.S. wheat no less favorably than Canadian wheat.

Looking south, Mexico and the United States agreed that all grading standards to agricultural products will be non-discriminatory.

Another first: the agreement includes measures to ensure cooperation and information sharing among all three nations concerning agricultural biotechnology and gene editing.

Back in 1993, when NAFTA went into effect, today’s biotech and gene editing advancements were hardly imaginable. We all know that a lot has changed with agricultural technology and technology in general over the past almost-three-decades.

Finally, the United States and Mexico signed a side agreement in September to prevent dumping of underpriced tomatoes on the U.S. market, resolving a long-running trade conflict that harmed farmers in Florida and other parts of the Southeast.

Further balancing the scales between the United States and Mexico is new language on enforceable labor standards and wages, making working conditions better for those in Mexico and lowering the chance that cheap labor south of the border will kill good-paying jobs here in the United States.

Our farmers and ranchers need a trade win. Congress has a chance to win by delivering it.

U.S. getting played on trade Several years ago, when Pulitzer Prizewinning columnist Tom Friedman was asked to choose which rising Asian nation, China or India, he’d bet the farm on, Friedman didn’t hesitate to pick India.

The reason, he exFarm & Food plained, was that while File both nations were on an expressway to the Alan Guebert future, India, the world’s largest democracy, had an open road in front of it and China, the world’s largest communist nation, would hit a wall he called liberty.

Today, American farmers see only one wall, export-pinching tariffs, as they prepare to sell what the White House says will be $50 billion in American ag exports over the next two years to cashand-carry China.

But as the United States and China continue to hammer out what the Trump administration calls Phase One of a bigger trade deal, the still-communist China is hedging its bets. On Nov. 4, it pushed to near-completion a 15-nation, Asia-centered trade deal named the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, or RCEP. RCEP is noteworthy for several reasons. First, unlike the Trans-Pacific Partnership that recently went into effect and pointedly excluded China, this one is driven by China. If mildly successful, explains Bloomberg, it will likely build the “world’s biggest free

trade bloc.”

That’s not good news for American farmers because, while the RCEP “hasn’t deliberately excluded the U.S…. to join, it would first need to reach a free-trade arrangement with Asean (the Association of Southeast Asian Nations) then apply to join,” Bloomberg notes.

Why the years-long maneuver to join this massive, new trade group that already includes key American food buyers like China, Mexico and Japan?

Mostly because the Trump administration pulled out of the nearly completed TPP just days after taking office in 2017.

Choosing to be on the outside of TPP back then put the United States on the outside of RCEP now.

Two other facts about the soon-tocome, China-centric deal make it particularly troubling in today’s period of American-led trade tension.

First, India was a key part of RCEP, but pulled out at the last minute. The reason, it claimed, is that China’s manufacturing sector threatens India’s now-slowing internal job growth, tens of millions of its small farmers and its growing trade deficit.

China, rather benignly, accepted India’s withdrawal and noted it will warmly welcome it back into the group when circumstances change — diplomatic talk for when Prime Minister Narendra Modi departs.

The quick acceptance and even quicker forgiveness of India’s unforeseen move signals a new, almost unprecedented Chinese willingness to use diplomacy rather than muscle to broaden its

regional and global influence.

Equally troubling is that U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross, who attended the Nov. 4 meeting of RCEP-member states, described the deal as “a very low-grade treaty” that “lacks the scope of the TPP.” How’s that for nerve: The Trump administration dumps on a new trade pact that will “encompass 40% of the global gross domestic product and 45% of the world’s population” by comparing it to another trade deal it dumped without hesitation more than two years ago.

That lack of forethought didn’t stop TPP; it’s in effect today — without the United States’ unmatched influence coming to bear on any signee.

Now China is putting the finishing touches on an even bigger trade deal with all of Asia that also excludes the United States.

Meanwhile, the go-it-alone White House is hoping to get China to buy U.S. farm goods at about the same level it was buying before the costly, price-busting tariff war began 18 months ago.

So, as the White House openly panders to its rural voters, China, wall or no wall, continues to play the long game.

RCEP will supplant U.S. influence — and, perhaps, U.S. food — throughout Asia for years to come.

The United States and its farmers, however, just continue to get played.

Planted acres vary little despite price swings

By Harwood D. Schaffer and Daryll E. Ray

For as long as we can remember, we have made the point that farmers plant all their acres all the time. Recently, someone challenged us on that assertion using our favorite line, “Show me the data.”

To test our assertion, we chose a period that included low prices, high prices, declining prices, increasing prices, stable demand and rapidly increasing demand. The time period we settled on was the era from 1998 through 2018.

If farmers were going to increase major crop acres, the establishment of the Renewable Fuels Standard, which increased the demand for corn to be converted into ethanol, should show a dramatic increase in crop acres.

At the other end of the spectrum, if farmers were to reduce their acreage, that should be apparent in the years after 2012, when farm income declined precipitously.

Let’s look at what we found.

During the 1998-2018 period, the season average price of corn varied from $1.82 with 255.5 million planted acres for the eight major crops —corn, soybeans, cotton, wheat, barley, oats, rice and grain sorghum — in 1998 to $6.89 with 257.4 million planted acres for the eight major crops in 2012.

The eight-major-crop planted acreage ranged from 243.2 million acres in 2005 to 257.8 million acres in 2014. The period started out with 255.5 million acres planted to the eight major crops in 1998 and ended with 254.2 million acres in 2018, a decline of 1.3 million acres.

In this same period, corn and soybean

planted acreage increased from 152.2 million acres to 178.8 million acres with 18 million of the 26.1-million-acre gain coming from wheat. Cotton gained 700,000 acres, and the remainder of the difference came out of barley, oats, rice, and grain sorghum.

With agriculture, there is an asymmetric response to changes in price. In response to lower prices, farmers do not reduce their production, in part because they don’t know what the price will be during the period when they will be marketing their crop.

There is always the possibility that there will be a drought or other limited production somewhere else and if they do not plant, they won’t have anything to sell in that situation.

With relatively high fixed costs consisting of land and equipment and lower variable costs, farmers have every incentive to plant all their land in the face of low prices because any income above the variable cost of production goes toward covering fixed costs. In the shortrun, crop farmers will produce even if the price does not cover variable costs in hopes of a price rally.

Farmers will plant whether the own the land or rent it. If they own it, there is little economic reason to leave it idle and if it is rented ground, it makes no sense to pay the rent and then not use the land.

If the farmer cannot obtain the finances to put the crop in, the land will be snatched up by farmer with adequate financial resources to cover any losses that might be incurred in the short run.

That also allows replacement farmers to spread their fixed costs out over more units of production, lowering the cost of production per unit of produc-

tion.

On the other hand, with high prices farmers have an incentive to increase their planted acres. This did not happen in the United States in this era in part because the most suitable acres to bring into production were under a 10-year contract in the Conservation Reserve Program, so only a small number of acres were available each year during the high-corn-demand period.

Beyond that, there were few remaining acres that could easily be brought into production. The United States has a mature agricultural economy with most acres allocated to their optimal use.

Brazil, on the other hand is in the situation where the United States was in the 19th century with an expanding frontier and plenty of suitable acres that with some investment can be converted to agricultural production.

In addition, farmers are reluctant to give up rented ground in periods of low prices because they will not have access to that land when prices exceed the full cost of production.

In the face of low prices, farmers may switch to a crop where their losses are lower, but in the short- to medium-run — farmers are always in the short to medium-run until the banker refuses to loan them the money to put in the next crop — they virtually plant all their cropland all of the time.

Whether it is in Brazil or the United States, when it comes to annual planting decisions, farmers tend to plant all their cropland to one crop or another, as illustrated by the U.S. eight-crop planted acreage numbers from 1998 to 2018. © 2019 Agricultural Policy Analysis Center.

Tips for burning wood safely

By Duane Friend

As with any appliance that works with high heat, regular maintenance of both the appliance and chimney is necessary for proper operation and to make sure there are no potential ďŹ re hazards.

Screens should be used in front of open ďŹ replaces to keep sparks from ďŹ&#x201A;ying out onto combustible materials.

Fireplaces should be inspected each year to verify ďŹ rebox integrity.

Masonry ďŹ replaces should not have cracks in the mortar or brick. With catalytic wood stoves, the combustor needs to be in good working order. In non-catalytic stoves, bafďŹ&#x201A;es should be inspected.

If you are not sure what should be inspected, contact a professional. If you have someone clean your chimney, they are often trained to inspect the stove or ďŹ replace, as well.

One of the biggest safety concerns with wood-burning ďŹ replaces is chimney ďŹ res. This occurs when exhaust gases cool and condense on chimney walls, creating creosote.

This material is highly ďŹ&#x201A;ammable. If allowed to build up, it can start burning in the chimney when heated.

Chimneys should be inspected and cleaned annually. Creosote buildup can be decreased by making sure you use seasoned wood, having hot ďŹ res instead of long, slow-burning ones, or employing low smoke producing systems.

Proper chimney caps

Screens should be used in front of open fireplaces. should be in place to arrest sparks, and to keep your friendly neighborhood wildlife from visiting.

Ash disposal is another concern. Ashes should be kept in a metal container with a lid. The container should not be placed next

to or on top of combustible materials, and should be outdoors.

Once the ashes have completely cooled, you can proceed to ďŹ nal disposal. If the ashes will be used as a soil amendment, be aware that most wood

ash has a very high pH. It is best to spread the ashes out very thinly, usually not more than 15 pounds over 1,000 square feet. It should not be used around plants that prefer acidic conditions. If you are not sure what your soil pH is, considered getting a soil test.

If applying to compost, apply in 1/8 inch layers and mix.

Wood ash is also accepted in landďŹ lls in Illinois.

FITNESS FROM PAGE ONE

In addition to serving as chairs of the committee for the project, Dake and Mudd also presented the chapter’s project to the

| ILLINOIS AGRINEWS | www.agrinews-pubs.com

judges at the national convention.

“It was really nerve-racking at convention because we had worked so hard on the project and for us to advance to the top 10 was amazing,” Mudd said. “We felt pretty confident coming out of our presenta-

tion, but later on stage we were both very nervous.”

“It was so cool to be helping with the project from the beginning where we were trying to promote physical fitness to the end when we were on stage representing not only our committee, but also our

chapter and state,” Dake said. “It was cool to be representing so many people.”

“I told the kids as we were preparing that to be in the top 10 in that nation is a major accomplishment and anything after that was icing on the cake,”

said Tim McDermott, adviser for the Waterloo FFA Chapter that includes about 160 members. “Charlie and Alexis did a really nice job of putting together the presentation and representing our chapter very nicely.”

The Waterloo FFA Alum-

ni made sure the FFA students received a proper welcome home from the FFA convention.

“They had a fire truck and police cars to create a train going through downtown,” Dake said. “People were parked on the side of the road, so it was a really cool moment.”

This is the second year in a row the Waterloo FFA Chapter has been selected a national finalist.

In 2018, the chapter was named a Model of Excellence finalist which includes all of the chapter’s projects in the Program of Activities.

“It’s been fun to watch the kids over the years buy into what can be possible,” McDermott said.

In 2018, Hummel had a similar situation when she was a member of the TriPoint FFA team that competed in the Veterinary Science career development event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We placed third in that contest, only seven points behind ďŹ rst so we were a little heartbroken but still excited with that ďŹ nish,â&#x20AC;? she said.

at the shows in Louisville, Denver and Kansas City,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting ready to go to the show in Louisville where I am also competing with the Illinois State 4-H livestock judging team.â&#x20AC;?

Hummel started working with her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goat business at a young age by

showing goats for her 4-H project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We expanded in high school and I started working at our farm which grew into a passion for working with the goats,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have about 250 does that are kept to bred through embryo transfer work and about 75 does that are naturally bred in our breeding program,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Hummel Livestock markets goats through online auctions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our target is to sell wethers to 4-H and FFA families for showing,â&#x20AC;? Hummel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also sell does that can be used for both show projects and breeding stock.â&#x20AC;?

In addition to her projects and competing in career development events, Hummel also served as her chapter reporter and chapter president during both her junior and senior year.

The FFA winner is attending Lake Land College and studying animal science, and she also is a

member of the livestock judging team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I plan to transfer to a university to complete my degree in animal science and likely continue livestock judging,â&#x20AC;? Hummel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure if I will go to vet school, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an option,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But regardless if I do or not, I plan to come home to the family farm to take over the goat and cat businesses.â&#x20AC;?

Advised by Diana Loschen, Hummel said, participating in FFA activities has helped her grow in many ways including public speaking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has helped me with everything from organization, time management and record-keeping skills to how to handle myself in an interview with eight judges,â&#x20AC;? she said.
