always makes me a little sad whenever I see one. We landowners are mere caretakers of our land for a little while on this Earth. I’m also reminded of the new bestseller by the economist Thomas Piketty which details the extent to which wealth is becoming ever more concentrated in the hands of the few, and how inherited wealth is and has been the mechanism for the greatest share of this wealth and power accumulation. In other words, billionaires are increasingly born that way, and not self-made by hard work. This is troubling. Greg Rendahl Ostrander, Minn.

five steps that might solve this “dilemma.” None will be easy or without controversy. First, we must “freeze agriculture’s footprint.” When food needs grew in the past, we simply grew more farmland; we deforested hill and dale and plowed prairies. Tomorrow’s farmers will have to make today’s 20 million square miles of global farmland more productive. That is, in fact, Foley’s step two. His step three advocates marrying everything we know about the art of farming — cover crops, mulches, rotations — with the ever-expanding science of farming (GPS, prescription fertilizers, advanced genetics) to “use resources more efficiently” to deliver more food and more “sustainability.” Foley’s fourth step holds two strategies today’s U.S. farmers will fight — more grain and less meat on future dinner plates and “curtailing the use of food crops for biofuels.” Will more people eating more grain 35 years from now take up the slack in demand that a less-meat, no-biofuel future might hold? Probably, but we’ll know better in 35 years. And step five? Waste less. It’s “estimated 25 percent of the world’s food calories and up to 50 percent of total food weight are lost or wasted before they can be consumed.” Foley’s list is timely, practical and, for many farmers, tough to digest. It’s also a great new place to talk about where farmers and food are going in the next decades because wherever they’re going, they’re going together.

Cover story
Grass-finished beef producer passionate about process By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer The passion Redwood County beef producer Daniel Tiffany has for his young business comes through when he talks grass-finished beef. His business card even enthusiastically proclaims, “Grass Finished ... the way nature Daniel Tiffany intended.” Though operating with a herd of only 10 cows this past season, his ambitions for Shady Knoll Farm are a doubling of that herd size in 2014. He direct markets 100 percent of its production to individual customers, even extending into the Twin Cities. He acknowledges quite a few Minnesota farmers are getting into the business. “We’re just seeing the tip of the iceberg. There’s a growing demand. Yes, you can buy grass-fed beef at a few stores. However we’re selling direct and at much more affordable prices.
Dick Hagen
“Plus we’re also talking carbon footprint,” he said. “The only transportation of my animals is from my farm to Lang’s Meat Market at Springfield. Then my product goes direct from me to my customers. My hamburger in your freezer is from just one animal; not 10 or 30 or more if processed by a larger facility.”
Tiffany has always been a conventional corn-soybean farmer. Five years ago, however, his “environmental logic” told him it was time to find a way to provide a clean, healthy meat that was not pumped See GRASS, pg. 7A

— Daniel Tiffany keeps your pasture forage at maximum nutritional value.” His paddocks range from three acres up to 10 acres but electric fencing controls grazing to just a couple acres per day. “The idea is to be grazing about one-third of your forage while the other two-thirds are replenishing from the previous grazing,” he said. Converting some of his good corn and soybean ground into pasture wasn’t easy with $7 corn and $14 soybeans. That’s less an issue today, however. “But this is the route I wanted to go,” he said. “... where it will end up I don’t yet know. I just know it’s a joy to be growing this kind of beef. And my customers, many with younger families, tell me they and their kids like the taste, the flavor of our beef.” Tiffany is selling quarters and halves.

long as it is healthy and producing healthy calves, so 12- to 15-year-old cows should be routine as his herd ages. Red Devon and grass-based Black Angus is his breeding program, with a Red Devon sire used on all the females. Tiffany said his Red Devon finish at about 1,200 pounds. A close inspection of key points such as the tail head and the brisket of each animal give him a good indication of how close to finish each animal might be. Bull calves are castrated, and then continue on the same grass finish routine. “It’s such an enjoyable atmosphere when I walk into a pasture and see my animals,” Tiffany said, his passion evident. “I think about feeding your family. I think about the nutrition this system provides. If it takes three to four months longer to get a grass-finished animal up to market weight, that’s irrelevant to me, and certainly to my customers. We’re talking healthy beef; we’re talking flavorful beef; we’re talking a livestock system that is extremely kind and considerate to our animals, our soils and our total environment.” Tiffany can be reached at (507) 640-0993. ❖

GRASS, from pg. 6A full of growth hormones and antibiotics, and it was grown on pastures free of broadcast spraying of herbicides and other pesticides. “An article in the Stockman Grass Farmer journal got me thinking,” he said. “I then talked with several already doing grass-fed beef. I was somewhat surprised how many are doing the business. Initially I just bought stockers from a grass-based farm. My procedure is that from birth to harvest my animals eat only what is grown on my farm.” He strives for May calving on pasture because lactating cows have high energy and his pasture forage is most nutritious during May and June. There’s zero use of antibiotics, growth hormones, artificial protein, etc., on Shady Knoll Farm. Calves continue nursing as long as “mama cow” permits but weaning at 10 months is his practice. Calves then range from 450 pounds to about 600 pounds. Tiffany is not certified organic on his crops but grazes his cattle with that strategy. He does rotational grazing, or “mob grazing” as intensive grazing is now called. “Understand what you are doing and this mob grazing gives good control of weeds, and

From the Fields: This just in — it’s wet out there By KRISTIN KVENO The Land Correspondent
The Thronsons Gary, Minn.
“Pretty wet.” That about sums up the weather in most of the region, but most certainly on Jared Thronson’s Jared Thronson farm. The Land spoke with Thronson on April 28 as he was anticipating more rain and even a chance of snow. White stuff or no, it was “supposed to be pretty cool this week.” Thronson hasn’t begun planting yet but was able to drive his four-wheeler out to check on one field that had lighter ground; reporting that “it looked in pretty good shape.” Thronson hopes that next week the field conditions would be right to begin planting. He has his planters ready to go, is looking over his tillage equipment and is working on his air seeder. The fields in the area have been quiet — no one in his area was seeding yet — but with “some wheat seed being delivered this week,” plus getting the fertilizer spreader ready to go, planting is just around the corner. Thronson counts on a few special people to help him get the crop in the ground: his dad, Lloyd, his great uncle Harlow, whose specialty is cultivating, and Thronson’s girlfriend, Kristin Sirjord, who runs the cultivator for him on the weekends. He has a new sprayer this year, and has been busy working on the nozzles. “I think it’s ready to go once I check it over.” Thronson is planning on doing some pre-emerge spraying this season. For the past two years he’s battled ragweed and he hopes the preemerge spraying will be an end to this stubborn weed. With planters ready to go, a new sprayer to try out and good people to help with planting, Thronson has all he needs to start the 2014 season off. Well, almost everything — a little heat and sun would be welcome. “I’d like to see the sun come out and see some 70-degree days,” he said. “That would do a lot.”

Wilts on April 28 he was dealing with rain that had been coming down since April 23. The rain is pushing off getting the crop in the ground and “now it looks like we’ll be a little behind schedDennis Wilts ule,” he said. Before the rain fell he was able to plant on April 20 and 22. “We got about 170 acres of wheat in,” Wilts said. That’s about one-third of his total wheat acres for this year. He also got 120 acres of sugar beets in, accounting for 15 percent of those acres. Planting was going smoothly until the rain halted everything, but he knows that “a little rain was welcome.” A lot of rain, however, is what showed up — and seems to be staying for a while. “We won’t be doing anything all week,” Wilts said. The forecast for the week shows that it “won’t be drying weather.” Cold temperatures have made it “too cold to put corn in,” he said, and that lack of warmth was forecast to stick around for a while. “It’s going to be on the cool side for the next 10 days.” He continues to work in the shop waiting for the sun to come out, and the fields to be ready to plant again. Wilts is ready to go.
The Hoffmans New Ulm, Minn.
“There are little puddles here and there.” Don Hoffman reported “right around three inches” of rain in two days at his farm, and with that amount of mois-
ture a puddle or two is to be expected. When The Land spoke with Hoffman on April 29, he was happy to get some moisture. Seven days earlier conditions were “beautiful” and he was able to get 23 acres of alfalfa in the ground. On this day, however, things weren’t quite as lovely. “It’s going to take some heat to get things dried out,” Hoffman said. He believes that the “earliest possible time to get back in the fields is in the middle of next week.” On the dairy side of things, Hoffman has most of the barn cleaned out and is using this week to “work on fans and Don Hoffman sprinkler systems.” This involves cleaning each of the sprinkler nozzles and checking the systems for any repairs that may be needed. The fan system has already been used this year. On Easter the temperature reached 80 and due to the sudden rise in temperature the fans were needed to cool the cows down. While the weather isn’t warm right now, Hoffman knows it won’t be long until the sprinkler and fan systems will be running quite often. “There’s never a dull moment on a dairy farm,” he said. Meanwhile, the “field equipment is fueled and ready to go,” Hoffman said. His brother plants while he does the tillage, a system they’ve perfected over the years. He’s hoping they can put that system to use soon, as he’d like to have “the corn in the ground by the 15th.” Once the fields are dried out it
should only take about two weeks for Hoffman’s crop to be planted. He’s been working long hours, even on these cold and rainy days, knowing that soon even longer hours will be necessary. Hoffman hopes those hours will be spent in the sun and with good field conditions.
The Hagens Lake Mills, Iowa
When it rains, it pours ... and it was certainly pouring down at the Hagen farm. The Land spoke with Jim Hagen on April 28 as the rain Jim Hagen was coming down — “two-and-a-half inches of rain in the last two days” — but talk wasn’t all dark skies and dismal weather; he had been able to get some crops planted before the rains came. On April 22 Hagen planted 200 acres of corn, then another 40 acres on the April 26. “The big field I planted was real nice conditions,” Hagen said. “I’m the only one I knew of that planted any corn (yet).” Once the conditions were right, he knew “it was time to go.” Hagen has a 24-row planter, “so it goes pretty quick.” He was also able to re-seed 20 acres of waterways with an oatswaterway seed mix. Being in the fields seemed like distant memory with all of the standing water, but Hagen knows that “as soon as it dries up it’s go, go, go.” Of course he’s not sitting around the farm twiddling his thumbs waiting for the rain to stop. He’s busy hauling corn — prices have improved and the time was right for Hagen to sell some of his crop. The corn he planted last week is already sprouting under the ground. Nature is ready for spring even if the weather isn’t cooperating. Hagen believes that “you want to get all your corn in (the ground) by the 15th of May,” and then he’ll “go right from corn to beans on the same day.” Hagen is ready for sunny skies, warm temperatures, and for planting to continue. ❖

Getting the most out of your hay is fair treatment By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Various reasons have beef and dairymen looking to get the most out of their hay crop. “Cattlemen, both beef and dairy, have ramped up their interest in getting maximum nutritional value out of every bale of hay. ... I’ve had lots of conversations on this topic of hay quality,” said Scott Nagel, TransAgra Sales representative. Leaf retention is what makes good alfalfa even better, and leaf retention is better if you bale that
alfalfa when it is higher in moisture. “We’re talking bringing in that hay when the alfalfa is a little tougher, a little wetter than normal. Since the alfalfa leaf contains the most protein, baling at 23-percent moisture as compared to 15-percent moisture provides 19-percent crude protein versus 13-percent crude protein with the drier hay.” Baling at higher moistures can increase the chance of mold, spoilage and heat damage which decreases nutritive value. This, in turn, can decrease feed intake and even produce serious problems such as
That green hay stands out from the other hays. Guys like to bid on that first ’cause it goes quicker. — Scott Nagel abortion and death in the livestock. TransAgra International Inc., headquartered at Storm Lake, Iowa, has a microbiological rescue. By using Culbac Hay, “instead of letting your hay dry down to 12 to 13 percent before baling, use this product and bale at 15-percent to 17-percent moisture. You’ll have more leaf retention; that automatically gives you more tonnage per acre and you’ve increased the palatability. Your cattle like it better,” Nagel said. Alfalfa treated with Culbac Hay is a greener hay, “and that usually means a higher dollar amount when you take that hay to auctions and sales barns. That green hay stands out from the other hays. Guys like to bid on that first ’cause it goes quicker,” Nagel said. He even talks of “softer hay” with the Culbac treatment and that means a better nutrient intake, because more of it will be eaten, more of it will be digested. Because of higher protein, you’re likely to note a boost in milk production, or rate of gain when feed to feeder cattle. The chemistry of Culbac is patented, and the product is sold worldwide. The product is fermented, which is different treatment than most live cultures. It’s a non-viable byproduct unlike an enzyme. Culbac can be applied as a dry product through a Gandy applicator in the baling chamber when the hay is being rolled; or you can spray it on when cutting hay with your haybine. Most guys are going with the cutting application, Nagel said, simply because it’s an easier and quicker method of treating the hay. Nagel said the cost per ton of hay treated would be $2.50. TransAgra also has feed additives, as well as haylage and silage products. Rumen-bac is a lactobacillus fermentation product involved in a research study conducted at New Mexico State University. Besides Rumen-bac, two other products tested were a yeast culture and probios during a 35-day starter period. Cattle fed Rumen-bac recorded the highest daily feed intake (14.6 pounds per day) and the greatest average daily weight gain (3.37 pounds per day). “This is an appetite stimulator. And because the feed tastes better, they eat more and grow faster. It’s about that simple,” he said. If health problems such as scours, dysentery are an issue, this product gives some help. Nagel was interviewed at the TransAgra booth at the Central Minnesota Farm Show in St. Cloud in February. Log on to www.transagra.com or call (800) 238-6075 for more information. ❖

Quick rotations mean nutritious meals for grass-fed beef When they get into that new paddock each day, the tops get nibbled off first and the eating is really good. Then about five hours later, they’re into the middle portion of those grass blades and nutrition value has declined.
— Mark Erickson strips. He speaks of a “mob” as being a cluster of several cows, their calves, and often also their yearlings. However, there’s some discrepancy from mob to mob. He points out, for example, that the virgin heifers have privacy in their grass paddocks away from the bull. Erickson has some Jersey cows and, because of the temperament of the breed, they don’t always do well when mixed in with other cattle. There are also a few Scottish-Highland females that he crosses with Angus bulls but, again, a separate pasture

because those animals have horns. If you’re getting the notion that Erickson has quite a few separate grazing paddocks due to his herd’s diversity, you’re right. That paddock count multiplies rapidly because each paddock is only one acre. He talks in terms of about 20 paddocks per strip. “In an ideal world where you get rain as needed, you move your cattle twice a day,” Erickson said. “If you’ve got 100 head on this acre, how long is it going to last? You want the ration to be the
same for every meal. “When they get into that new paddock each day, the tops get nibbled off first and the eating is really good. Then about five hours later, they’re into the middle portion of those grass blades and nutrition value has declined. Soon they’re down to the bottom portion. Nutrient value is minimal.” That explains the frequent moving. He sold his first grassland beef in 1998, and got into intensive grazing just five years ago, so Erickson admits he’s still learning. “Plus we’ve had some drought the past couple of years so there’s been a bit more strategy to make that work.” Because of the drought, Erickson downsized his cow herd as those pastures couldn’t sustain as many critters. When he transitioned into grassfed beef, those new seedlings took
THE LAND, MAY 9, 2014
By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Back in 1994, Mark Erickson was renting 700 acres and calling himself a “commercial crop farmer.” Today Erickson is still a crop farmer but now his only crop is grass (and hay), he’s now renting only 400 acres, his commodity is grass-fed beef, and he’s in a pasture rotation system that often has him moving his cattle twice a day. “I decided I couldn’t be both a commercial farmer and a grass farmer,” he said, “and because you can’t afford the equipment for both types of farming we decided to specialize instead on grass and do what I call mob grazing.” As you might suspect, “mob grazing” is high-density grazing. The Donnelly, Minn., farmer accomplishes that strategy by dividing his grassland pastures into three, 300foot-wide by about half-mile-long

intensive as you might imagine because he uses electric fence lines between each paddock, and an electric lane fence at the end of these half-mile pasture strips. He claims it’s only about 10 minutes to move his stock one acre at a time from one paddock to the next, and it gives him some flexibility

when weather isn’t cooperating. He also has two or three water tanks in the two fencelines separating the halfmile strips. “We have some good Reed’s canary grass bottoms,” Erickson said, “and during our dry weather these pastures sustain our cattle better than the upland pastures which are mostly oldstand grasses with a high percentage of blue grass plus some Dutch clover and Alice white clover. Alice clover grows taller. There’s a big difference in these clovers. I’m still learning about the habits of the different grasses in our pasture mix, too.” Before he got into mob grazing, he was doing rotational grazing on about 20, five-acre paddocks on a neighboring farm where his son Alan lives. Depending upon these pastures, some were seeded to what Erickson refers to as “highland” pasture mixes, a different seed mixture for lowland areas and some specifically for these five-acre paddocks. “That was our first project. We were putting 50 pairs (cow-calf) on five acres,” Erickson said. But mob grazing is like 150 to 180 various sized animals on one acre. “That’s much more intensive.” When your only crop is pasture there’s still some maintenance. His primary maintenance tool is a 15-foot Woods shredder. “That’s knocking down the thistles if needed; also knocking down other problem weeds, even the canary grass if it gets too tall.”
He’s still learning about the genetics side of the business, too. For example, some of his cows and their offspring simply don’t do as well on grass. “So I’m feeding them some grain and sending them to the processing plant at Sisseton, S.D.” The primary market for his calves each year is Thousand Hills, a Cannon Falls, Minn., firm that specializes in the production, processing and marketing of grass-fed beef. But Erickson’s operation, Boss Ridge Ranch, also has a growing “drive-in” customer market — people buying quarters and halves. “That market just seems to sustain itself by word-of-mouth and special connections. For example, we have six customers in Mankato, Minn. My brother-in-law lives there and he circulates well in the community,” Erickson chuckled, explaining his entry into that market. Processing for quarters and halves is at the Hoffman Lockers, a custom operation at Hoffman, Minn. Also in Boss Ridge’s “food chain” is Hancock Quality Meat of Hancock, Minn., a few miles southeast of Morris. This facility qualifies as a “Minnesota Same” branded locker — meaning the same as U.S. Department of Agriculture — because a state inspector each Tuesday inspects each carcass. Each package is then labeled Minnesota Inspected which permits marketing of See BEEF, pg. 15A
Rising land costs have made big impact on operation Ridge Ranch the option of four different future scenarios: 1) Reduce cow numbers and raise more pigs and chickens; 2) Maintain current cow numbers and do some custom grazing such as dairy heifers; 3) Expand the beef cow herd (he has 75 beef cows on order right now, “but I don’t think we’ll get them for the price I’m offering with the order.”); or 4) Expand up to about 200 cows. Because Erickson has grazed ani-
mals on Fish and Wildlife land for several years already, he has the opportunity to do more. “And I believe that is because when we use this land we break it up into two or three pastures and rotate our cattle. This is a form of intensive grazing and cleans up all forages, including the weeds. Plus your cattle are eating a ‘better ration’ because they’re getting fresher forage with each rotation.” ❖

Expo in review — Horse business is big business By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer The recent Minnesota Horse Expo continued its reputation for outstanding speakers, vendors galore (more than 700), a nice assortment of food (28 different eateries), and mostly good weather, but it was a little harder than usual to come across, well, actual horses. Horse numbers were down, but this was a deliberate measure on the part of the Expo. Because of equine herpesvirus — EHV-1, a neurologic disease that spreads by direct horse-tohorse contact — the Minnesota Horse Expo Board cautioned against bringing a large number of horses to this year’s expo.

including six of her own horses, at Shafer, Minn. She’s a stickler on security. “If my boarders visit other horse farms I ask that they wear different clothing, change or disinfect their boots. We all have concerns about this virus and take the necessary precautions,” she said. Horses are an expensive hobby, especially with grain and hay prices “off the charts” in recent months. Buskey thinks the tighter economy has slowed the horse business somewhat. She relies on her pastures to defray costs, but buys all her hay. “Hay quality and prices have been a big issue the past couple of years, especially with so many drought areas across our state and the Upper Midwest. I mostly just buy grass hay. Alfalfa-rich forages are sometimes detrimental so it is important to watch your mixtures and the relative nutritional value of your forages,” said Buskey, whose love for horses started See EXPO, pg. 17A

Yard-sale find proves to be full of recipe treasures By SARAH JOHNSON The Land Correspondent I love hearing the word “vintage” being thrown around these days, because at my age, half my stuff is vintage. Much of my clothing, book collection, furniture, dishes, knickknacks and body parts are vintage, and it’s not because we tried: They just grew old with me with no effort on anybody’s part at all. One of the few benefits of aging is that your stuff can get more valuable. (With the exception of the body parts, of course.) Vintage cookbooks are all the rage, but you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg to collect them. Try the book section of your local thrift shops: You can often pick them up for a quarter apiece. Ask your friends and relatives who might have a stash in their cupboards they could part with. Garage sales and library book sales are great spots to search, too.

Here are some of its treasures. ■ Hello Dolly Bars are similar to seven-layer bars but with a crust of crushed vanilla wafers instead of graham crackers. You can use whatever chips you like — semi-sweet, dark or milk chocolate, peanut butter, butterscotch — but don’t forget to cut them while still slightly warm or they’ll get too hard. My family gobbled up a pan of these in no time. Four out of four sticky-fingered “yums” from the Johnsons. Hello Dolly Bars 1 stick margarine 1 cup crushed vanilla wafers 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 cup butterscotch chips 1 cup flaked coconut 1 cup chopped pecans 1 can sweetened condensed milk In shallow 9x13-inch pan, melt margarine. Sprinkle vanilla wafer crumbs over margarine, evenly. Then spread chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, coconut and pecans. Pour sweetened condensed milk over the layered ingredients. Do not stir. Bake 30 minutes at 350 F. Cool slightly. Cut into 1-inch or 2-inch squares. ■ Here’s an easy, classic recipe for when you’re wondering what to serve with ham. The sweet, fragrant orange-raisin rice pairs exceptionally well with the salty, smoky pork. This is a perfect example of a recipe where “less is more” — simple ingredients combining for amazing flavors. Ham Steak With Orange Rice Stuffing 2 cups cooked rice 1/2 cup seedless raisins 3 tablespoons undiluted frozen orange juice concentrate Dash of pepper Pinch of nutmeg 1 egg, well beaten 2 ham slices, 1-inch thick 2 tablespoons brown sugar Combine rice, raisins, orange juice concentrate, pepper, nutmeg and beaten egg in large bowl. Place ham slice in baking pan; spoon rice stuffing evenly onto slice. Top with second slice and sprinkle with brown sugar. Bake at 350 F for 35 to 40 minutes.
■ Mushroom lovers will love this three-ingredient salad — just ‘shrooms, celery and radishes — adorned with a luscious homemade dressing that you’ll want to use on all your salads. Try this recipe if you get a hold of some morels this spring. Raw Mushroom Salad 1/2 pound mushrooms, cleaned and sliced thinly 2 stalks celery, cut into 2-inch strips 1/4 cup grated raw radishes Dressing 3/4 cup heavy cream or half-and-half 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1/2 tablespoon red wine vinegar 3 tablespoons olive oil Salt and pepper Dash of Tabasco sauce Prepare dressing and mix well. It should be tangy; add more mustard if necessary. May be prepared an hour or two in advance of serving time. Use this dressing on fresh spinach salads, too. ■ Here’s a tangy twist on plain ol’ cole slaw that features tiny shrimp and a dollop of blue cheese dressing. This fresh combo will put store-bought slaw to shame. Slaw & Shrimp 3 cups shredded cabbage 1 small onion, chopped fine (or use dry minced onion) 1/2 cup green pepper, chopped fine 1/2 cup celery, chopped fine 3 tablespoons Miracle Whip 2 tablespoons blue cheese dressing 1 can (4.5 ounces) shrimp, drained Mix all ingredients and chill. Very good with fried chicken. ■ Finally, I include a recipe that I wish I could un-see. When I saw the first two ingredients — cream of asparagus soup and lime gelatin — I just about hurled. Cream cheese, Miracle Whip, raw onions, green peppers, and chopped nuts complete the nightmare. I dare you. Emerald Green Salad 1 can cream of asparagus soup 1 (3 ounce) package lime gelatin 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, mixed with 5 tablespoons water Heat soup; add gelatin and cream cheese. Cool. Add: 1/2 cup Miracle Whip 1 cup chopped celery 1/2 cup chopped green pepper 1/4 cup chopped nuts Grated onion Chill in 9x9-inch pan. Serves 9.

Farmers’ spring planting stress eased with technology I think most farmers could attest to the fact that spring planting can be a royal pain in the back pew some years, such as 2013, under the auspices of a somewhat menopausal Mother Nature. She can no longer control her own thermostat, can’t remember which months should have snow and which should have rain in them, and she seems to be expanding around her monsoon section, such as some areas witnessed earlier this year. During past spring planting seasons when we have not needed oars or snow boards during April or
May, I have ridden with my husband in the designated planting tractor as he has gone about the business of seeding a crop. He plants the seeds that allow me to stand at the check-out counter and purchase a box of corn flakes, which cost almost as much as an entire bushel of corn — when there can’t be a quarter cup of corn in the entire box, if that. But that’s another day’s soap box. Once I’ve gained access into the captain’s deck of the rural version of the Starship Enterprise, I’m amazed at all the gadgets, monitors, cables and tech-

Minnesota picked for program aimed at eliminating ag teacher shortage ag teacher positions in the United States will go unfilled in 2014. STAR program state teams will pilot new initiatives to recruit and retain agriculture teachers to help fulfill this shortage. They will be responsible for implementing proven strategies, tracking impact and reporting results of their plan
to share with other states. For information specific to Minnesota, contact Sarah Dornink at tesm0010@umn.edu. For more information about the STAR program, contact Ellen Thompson at ethompson.naae@uky.edu. ❖
THE LAND, MAY 9, 2014 << www.TheLandOnline.com >>
Minnesota has been selected as one of eleven states to participate in the inaugural year of the State Teach Ag Results program, a component of the National Teach Ag Campaign aimed at addressing the shortage of agriculture teachers using a comprehensive framework based on the needs of each state. “Similar to states across the nation, Minnesota is facing a large shortage of agricultural educators,” said Sarah Dornink, executive director of the Minnesota Agricultural Education Leadership Council. However, the gap between supply and demand is not simply an indication of the number of individuals entering the profession. In Minnesota, the shortage is exacerbated by an increasing demand for high school agricultural education programs. In recent years, student enrollment in agriculture, food and natural resource classes has continued to increase. To accommodate heightened interest, many school districts are investing in the development of new programs. Additionally, some single-teacher programs have expanded with the addition of a second or third teacher, allowing for greater breadth and depth of agricultural courses. Dornink said, “being selected as a STAR participant is very exciting for our state, and we look forward to continuing our efforts in recruiting and retaining agricultural educators. The STAR program is a new and innovative tool to add to the collaborative work being done by Minnesota agricultural education organizations.” Minnesota’s team will be comprised of representatives of MAELC, Minnesota Association of Agricultural Educators, Minnesota Department of Education, Minnesota FFA Alumni and Foundation, Minnesota State Colleges and Universities, and the University of Minnesota-Agricultural Education Program. In 2012-13, more than 20 programs closed due to the lack of teachers; it is estimated that nearly 100

Schwaller: I’d take my chances with the Russians TABLE, from pg. 22A tor cab one day to get the view of the great hoard of cables and cords that keep all of those monitors running, which in turn, keeps the farmer running. All wadded up in one corner of the cab, they looked more like the innards of a large and pregnant raccoon, but somehow they are responsible for keeping the day on track. While these monitors and new technological advances can make us much smarter about how we plant our crops, they can also lead to early dementia. You know how it is — if one thing doesn’t work, the whole operation goes down ... and you know how well people handle strings of Christmas lights that don’t work. The truth is, you can throw Christmas lights away for the stress they cause, and get another string for a couple of bucks. At the cost of these cables and wires, selling classified information to the Russians is about the only way to pay for replacements.
And the shipping would be atrocious. Being tech-savvy is a must for today’s progressive farmer, though it’s been known to involve a few colorful words in the height of the process when things aren’t going well, followed by the need to visit the nearest confessional because of said language. A visit to the local watering hole should take place only after confessing the sins of the day, lest the sins sound more like something that should be confessed in front of a federal judge. Times have changed since the days when my husband was first able to plant his own crop. He had a Farmall Super M and an older IH Cyclo planter. He just backed up and hooked on to the planter, filled the box and started down the rows. Truly, I don’t know how they take all that pressure. I think it’s a relief they have such a thing as auto-steer now, so the farmer can spend the time he needs watching the monitors, making sure

Personally, I think it would be easier and more profitable to sell classified information to the Russians.
Minnesota spring truck weight restrictions on state highways will end May 9 in the southeast, south and metro frost zones. The restrictions will end in the central Minnesota frost zone on May 13, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Spring load restrictions are still in effect in the north-central and north frost zones. Ending dates for spring load restrictions are established by monitoring roadway strength as weather conditions change. Road restriction maps indicating the locations of weight-restricted routes and state highways open to maximum 10-ton axle weights are listed on the MnDOT website at www.mrr.dot.state.mn.us. Click on
“Seasonal Load Limits,” then click on “Spring Load Restrictions” for the most up-to-date information. The information also is available by calling (800) 723-6543 in the United States and Canada or by calling (651) 366-5400 in the Twin Cities area. Middle-range overweight permits become available within each frost zone when spring load restrictions are lifted. Full-summer overweight permits become available within each frost zone starting two to three weeks after spring load restrictions are lifted. Travelers in Minnesota can get up-todate information on road conditions, construction and weather reports by dialing 511 or logging on to www.511mn.org. ❖

The following market analysis is for the week ending May 2. CORN — The market was a mixed bag with bullishness at play early in the week on delayed planting due to wet, cool conditions. However, the latter part of the week erased all gains as forecasts indicated clearing weather in the coming week for the central Corn Belt. The north and northwestern Corn Belt may not be as fortunate with rain possibly returning just when field conditions should be ready for planting. The trade will be expecting corn planting progress to be 25 percent to 30 percent complete as of May 4, versus the average of 42 PHYLLIS NYSTROM percent complete. As of April 27 CHS Hedging Inc. St. Paul just 19 percent of the corn crop was planted and 3 percent was emerged. It’s tough to get too bulled up with the current planting pace. Remember last year, U.S. farmers planted 40 percent of the crop in just one week. July corn closed the week 13 1/4 cents lower at $4.99 1/2 per bushel and December down 12 1/4 cents at $4.94 per bushel. The Buenos Aires Grains Exchange estimated their corn harvest at 25 percent complete as of May 2. They left their corn production estimate at 24 million metric tons. Weekly export sales were an impressive 36.9 million bushels when we need just 3.6 million bushels per week to hit the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s 1.75 billion bushel forecast. Total commitments are already 1.734 billion bushels. The export line on the May 9 report may be increased 50 million bushels,
The weather appears to have changed as May began. However, that does not appear to be the only thing that is in the process of changing. After months of an upward charging livestock complex, particularly the cattle and hog markets, the direction may be seeing a lower price trend developing. The cattle market, which has been advancing higher in price nearly every week in the cash trade, now seems to be slowing in its ascent. The futures market has fallen from the highs made in February in anticipation of greater cattle numbers and decreasing demand for beef. JOE TEALE The fact that the beef cutout Broker continues to find resistance in the Great Plains Commodity Afton, Minn. mid-$230 per hundredweight range basis choice reflects that demand has found a level where buyers are reluctant to acquire beef above this area in quantity. Based on previous U.S. Department of Agriculture Cattle on Feed reports, the number of available cattle ready for market should be on the increase over the next couple of months. This increase in more available beef product and a questionable demand could put pressure on cattle prices during the several upcoming months. With packer margins slim to, at times, in the red, there is not likely to be a real aggressive stance taken by the packers in regards to gathering inventory. Cattle numbers are still down in comparison to recent years and are not expected to recover to previous levels for many months. Therefore, the market prices paid for finished cattle will still be most
It appears we are looking at another slow, wet start to the planting season. As a grain producer, as well as a lender, I understand the stress that comes along with waiting for field conditions to improve. It seems that again this spring we have both the weather and markets working against us. Unfortunately, we can do little to control either one. Let’s face it, if the return to adequate profitability needs to come primarily from the cost side of the equation, some progress can be made working on our seed, fertilizer and chemicals. However, meaningful change in cost of production will come from managing land cost. But who DAREL NESS wants to approach their landlord AgStar Assistant VP and discuss lowering rent when Financial Services Rochester, Minn. you know other producers with strong cash positions are chasing these assets? Given the strong liquidity that still remains in the grain production industry, even after a difficult 2013, the land market could be slow to change. This volatile environment will create opportunities; however, it may require patience. Will your operation be positioned to take advantage of them when the time comes? I like the old adage “Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.” Evaluating your operation’s ability to weather a storm and remain viable to take advantage of opportunities when they present themselves involves looking at a couple key things. • Stress-test your operation’s financial ratios. What will they look like if we have another year or

Planting delays feed switch-to-beans thoughts NYSTROM, from pg. 25A according to private estimates. Weekly ethanol production fell 13,000 barrels per day to 898,000 barrels per day. Ethanol stocks rose to 17.2 million barrels from 16.5 million barrels. Stocks are the highest since mid-February, but margins remain favorable. We remain on pace to meet the USDA corn for ethanol estimate of 5 billion bushels. OUTLOOK: The May USDA crop production report will be released May 9. Based on current export sales, the USDA may raise usage 50 million bushels and lower the old crop carryout. This report will also give us our first look at the 2014-15 balance sheets. In the meantime, the heavy fund length may continue to liquidate and keep pressure on prices. The balance to the risk of fund selling is the demand for corn. Sales this week were the highest in five weeks with four months left in the marketing year. July corn broke the 14day moving average support this week with next support at $4.95 and $4.90 per bushel. December corn’s first support is $4.87, then $4.76 per bushel. SOYBEANS — July soybeans rallied early in the week to within one-
half cent of the contract high before fund selling and profit taking popped up to begin May. The July contract closed the week down 23 1/2 cents at $14.70 3/4 per bushel and the November contract 17 1/4 cents lower at $12.22 1/2 per bushel. For the first time in this marketing year, we saw weekly soybean export sales as a net negative 600,000 bushels. Even though the sales were negative, total soybean export sales commitments of 1.638 billion bushels are 4 percent above the USDA forecast of 1.58 billion bushels. An increase of 15 million to 25 million bushels of exports would not be unexpected on the May 9 USDA report. Soybean imports are roughly 9.6 million bushels so far, with another 24 million bushels expected to be loaded from South America bound for the United States. The USDA currently has 65 million bushels dialed in for imports, but up to 75 million bushels have been tossed around from private estimates. Delayed planting in corn leads market participants to expect switching of corn acres to soybeans. This may eventually occur, but it’s too early to say a significant number of acres will

PEDv impact lesser than expected TEALE, from pg. 25A affected by the demand for beef products. Cattle feeders are urged to keep abreast of developments about the cattle market and protect inventories as needed. The hog market has fallen quickly from the highs made in April. The porcine epidemic diarrhea virus was the main factor behind the rapid rise in prices as many worried that supplies of hogs would diminish at a rapid rate. This did not necessarily hold true as hog numbers actually ended up being greater than many had anticipated in the short term. That fear of reduced numbers made the industry scramble to secure inventories of pork, which in turn drove the pork cutout to all-time
switch. Watch the weather in the northern Corn Belt for signals of this taking place since corn planting in North Dakota and South Dakota has yet to get under way and Minnesota has been out of the field for a week. Soybean planting as of May 4 is estimated from 8 percent to 10 percent complete. Argentina’s bean harvest was projected at 57 percent complete as of May 1. Production estimates are edging up from 54.0 mmt toward 55.0 mmt. OUTLOOK: July soybeans also broke the 14-day moving average support, leaving next support at $14.44 and near-term resistance at $15.12 per bushel. As for November soybeans, if corn planting surges ahead this week,

highs. As inventories of pork increased and demand began to falter at the higher prices, the highs were set by reduced demand at all levels. This created the rapid descent in live prices as well as in pork cutout prices and thus the rapid decline ensued. It would still appear that future inventory of live hogs will decline because of the PED virus and prices will stabilize and rebound. However, because of the high prices seen in the previous month, demand for pork has likely been reduced. This will likely keep prices more defensive and not driven by fear as was the case earlier. Producers should stay in touch with market conditions and protect inventories when opportunities present themselves. ❖
talk of acreage switching should subside. This could pressure new crop prices. Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the week ending May 2: Chicago July wheat up 7 3/4 cents, Minneapolis jumped 25 1/2 cents higher and Kansas City wheat soared 33 1/4 cents higher. June crude oil fell 84 cents to $99.76, ultra-low-sulfur diesel down nearly 6 cents, gasoline dropped 8 1/4 cents and natural gas closed 1 1/2 cents higher. The unemployment rate fell to 6.3 percent, the lowest since September 2008. The next USDA crop report will be released at 11 a.m. CT on May 9.

Remain diligent on costs NESS, from pg. 25A two of poor margins? Will you have adequate liquidity to operate? For many, 2013 was the first poor earnings year we’ve seen in quite a stretch. If one more year of tough margins drains your liquidity to the point where simply having adequate operating money is an issue, I would suggest looking at restructuring some debt to replenish working capital now. • If margins improve you may not need it, however, but waiting may have risk. We know long-term fixed rates are attractive now. Will they still be favorable a year from now? One year can make a lot of difference when it comes to ease of underwriting. It’s difficult to predict whether or not your lender will underwrite a new-term note 12 months from now. Lenders hang a lot of weight on historic earnings. Today most producers have a good earnings history with one blemish (2013) in the three-year average. Underwriting new credit is fairly straightforward today. What if we experience another tough earnings year in 2014? Now a three-year earnings history is much more difficult for underwriters to use. Ensure your records are accurate and reflect the accrual earnings of your operation. Why accrual? Because cash profit and loss statements are what you make them, and most producers show as little profit as possible for income tax reasons. That’s not exactly the picture you’re trying to paint when working with your lender to finance
the farm next door you’ve been waiting 30 years to buy. Accrual earnings reflect the real earnings of your operation and when margins get tight it’s more important than ever to tell the story of your operation’s true earnings. Good records make for good financial decisions and a smooth relationship with your lender. It would be a shame to lose out on an opportunity simply because your records missed the mark. I talk to producers daily and hear comments about how the market is out of alignment and irrational and that it has to adjust to profitable levels in time. I agree that profitability will likely return for “most” in time, however, it does not necessarily have to be an increase in commodity prices that gets us there. There are many ways grain producers can position our operations for opportunity. Remaining diligent about costs of production, maintaining adequate working capital and building relationships with trusted partners, like your insurance experts seed dealers and lenders, are all strategies that will serve grain farmers well into 2014 and beyond.

The 2014 Four-State Dairy Nutrition and Management Conference will be held June 11-12 at the Grand River Center in Dubuque, Iowa. The conference will present the latest research on issues concerning the dairy industry including feed efficiency, calves and transition cows. This conference is a collaborative effort of Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, University of Illinois Extension, University of Minnesota Extension and University of Wisconsin Extension. The program starts on June 11 with a pre-conference symposium. Milo Wiltbank will cover reproduction and amino acid balancing, and Dan Luchini will discuss the benefits of feeding methionine during transition. Other topics include amino acid balancing for lactating cows and factors affecting vitamin availability. Select breakout topics include: • Can genomics improve feed efficiency? • What cows have to say about NDF and starch digestion • The first 60 days: can we make it better? • Economics of intensified calf feeding programs • Automatic calf feeders study update • Can amino acids improve use of non-milk proteins on milk replacers? • Wisconsin cost of raising heifers survey results • Transition cow health: meeting lactation demands while maintaining a healthy liver • How robotic dairies are feeding their cows “This conference has more than 20 different speakers during the symposium and breakout sessions. Every producer will find something relevant to their work in the dairy,” said Jim Salfer, University of Minnesota Extension educator. Other topics to be covered include understanding mastitis diagnostic results, dairy title of the farm bill, dairy nutrition models, hemorrhagic bowel syndrome and transition cow crowding. For more information and to register, log on to http://wiagribusiness.org/fourstate.php or contact Wisconsin Agri-Service Association, (608) 223-1111, or Salfer at salfe001@umn.edu or (320) 203-6093. The conference registration fee is $150 until May 31 and $175 after. ❖

time since April 1, and closed Friday at $2.0750, up 16.5 cents on the week and 42.5 cents above a year ago. Only one car sold on the week, the gains all came on unfilled bids. NDPSR butter plunged a dime, to $1.8631/lb. Northeast butter production is steady with ample milk and cream supplies, according to the USDA. Some butter makers are reluctant to increase inventories, as they consider day-to-day market conditions. Inventory volumes are below last year’s levels. Exports remain good. Midwest butter prices increased on a bullish market as some manufacturers are surprised at current sales. Butter makers are producing at mostly steady rates, but are experiencing increased competition for cream supplies. Domestic interest regained some strength, while international demand is ongoing. Inventories of butter continue to be lower than seasonal levels. Cash Grade A nonfat dry milk closed Friday at $1.7775, down 3.25 cents on the week. NDPSR powder averaged $2.0173, up 0.6 cent, and dry whey averaged 68.72 cents, up 0.8 cent. ■ Milk production is steady in the Southwest and Florida, but increasing in most of the other regions. So, where is the Midwest milk supply? Blame the weather, says the Daily Dairy Report’s Sarina Sharp in the April 25 Milk Producers Council newsletter. Sharp said that forage issues have plagued some Midwestern producers, and the whole region has wrestled with bitter and persistent winter weather. Production was 4.8 percent lower than last year in Ohio in March, 3.8 percent smaller in Minnesota and 1.6 percent lower in Wisconsin. However, the temperature is rising this month and anecdotal reports suggest that milk production is as well. Producers in the Midwest are obviously incentivized to increase milk output and the looming flush could lead to strong national production in the months to come. ■ Weather is also causing a shortage of organic milk. Featuring a quote from the DMN, Dairy Foods Magazine reports that organic producers in northern New England, Maine and much of Wisconsin are not able to

MIELKE, from pg. 27A pounds, was up 11.3 percent from February but 1.4 percent below a year ago. Italian-type cheese amounted to 427 million pounds, up 14.2 percent from February and 3.5 percent above a year ago. Total cheese production was 427 million pounds, up 13.3 percent from February and 1 percent above a year ago. Cash cheese prices saw a second week of decline the week of April 28, with the blocks closing that Friday at $2.07/lb., down 14 cents on the week and the lowest since Jan. 6, but still 16 cents above a year ago when the blocks peaked for the year at $1.91/lb. Barrels closed at $2.0550, down 12.5 cents on the week but 32.5 cents above a year ago. The NDPSR-surveyed block averaged $2.2908, down 7.1 cents. Barrels averaged $2.2495, down 3.2 cents. Northeast cheese production is steady to increasing, relative to gradual upticks in milk supplies, according to the Dairy Market News. Inventories are rebuilding as volumes expand going into cheddar-aging program. Some buyers are reducing orders in anticipation of declines in food service purchases, ahead of the summer breaks to occur at most schools and universities. Export interest is steady. Some Midwest manufacturers continue to report buyers strategizing as to placing purchase orders, following recent cash market weakness. However, the ability to do that is mitigated by the reality of some plants already being at full production or near that level. Prospective buyers who held back recently are now being told that the cheese being produced is committed, leaving buyers to seek other sources. Cheese is available but may require more calling than expected. Western cheese production is steady to building slowly depending on local milk intakes. Manufacturers report that production is in balance with current orders. Blocks and barrels are not at burdensome levels. Export orders have slowed, but continue to be a factor in managing stocks. Buyers are keeping a close eye on price fluctuations and taking advantage of lower prices. The overall market tone is for anticipated lower prices, but uncertainty remains concerning at what level. Cash butter saw a second week of gain, soaring above $2/lb. for the first

Beverage milk sales tumble as per-gallon price spikes MIELKE, from pg. 29A graze cows for pasture feeding because weather is not warming nor pastures drying out. Fields in Maine are still mostly white (snow), with patches of brown, some yellow and little green. Snow has lingered in other parts of New England and central to northern Wisconsin. Signs have appeared on dairy coolers of some outlets of a regional supermarket chain in the East, advising consumers of possible shortages of organic milk. A store branch has recently been shorted orders for organic milk by suppliers. ■ Speaking of retail beverage milk, sales tumbled 4 percent during the four weeks ending March 23 as the price per gallon spiked 6.6 percent higher to $4.11, according to the April 25 Dairy and Food Market Analyst.

Jubon Juweelen, Orange City, Iowa
I
magine a store where a grandson can’t wait to take his grandmother shopping. Jubon Juweelen in Orange City, Iowa, is just that kind of store. The name Jubon is a combination of letters from the owners’ names — Ju (Julie), bo (Bonnie), and n (Clinton). Juweelen is an old fashioned Dutch word for jewels. Lee and Bonnie Meier were both retired from successful careers when they saw a local need. Bonnie, who was on the city council, had heard plenty of complaints that there were not enough businesses downtown. She decided to do something about it. They would open a store that would serve the community by merchandising things that were needed. A place to buy a spool of thread grew into an abundant selection of knitting, quilting and sewing supplies. It would be an outlet to sell books from their vast collection. Bonnie is the daughter and niece of librarians. The Meiers have always savored reading, but it was time to downsize and begin letting others enjoy their books. Their book nook contains old and brand new books, many from local authors. Since opening in 2010, the business has evolved as needs began to present themselves. At one time three businesses in town handled Delft — Dutch pottery — but a fire and business direction changes left a void. It was a natural fit for their store, and since then other Dutch imports including chocolate and licorice have been stocked.
When wooden shoes, including the popular wooden shoe slippers, or mens’ or womens’ Dutch hats are needed, Jubon Juweelen is the place to go for a bountiful selection. For the young girls, there are American Doll items including crafts and knitted clothing. They also have jewelry-making supplies, and there is a good supply of hand-made jewelry to complement anyone’s style. At times consignments are made of different collections. “People who have loved collecting anything are always hoping that items from their collections will go to others who appreciate the item,” Bonnie said. “It’s fun being the middleman on those transactions that result in two happy parties.” The store often features local artists’ work — water color paintings, leather workings and stained glass creations have been displayed. Antiques, predominantly but not exclusively Dutch, elicit many memories from store visitors who
have come from many states and countries. For young adults, they have disc golf supplies for sale, and for a good reason: Juliana Korver, one of the store owners, is a disc golf champion. Her personalized disc is stocked along with a good assortment to meet anyone’s skill or needs. But Jubon Juweelen offers more than simply a varied selection of items for sale. On Tuesday mornings, a group of knitters gather for two hours until noon, to knit or crochet. While there is a core group, the knitters welcome anyone, and will teach all ages this art. At 3 p.m. each day, the coffee festival begins. “Much like the days of Ben Franklin, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, or Henry David Thoreau, when people gathered around the potbelly stove,” Bonnie said. “We do a lot of talking, solving the world’s problems.” Jubon Juweelen is located at 107 3rd Street NE, Orange City, IA 51041.

Advantages we offer: • We unload directly from the trucks to a floater (Terra Gator) without stockpiling material. This gives us a more uniform spread with no foliage to plug up the spreader. • With direct loading there is no stockpile, no wasted lime or mess in your field. • We use a floater (Terra Gator) to spread so we have less compaction. • We are equipped to spread variable rate using GPS mapping. • We service Minnesota and northern Iowa. Why apply Aglime: • A soil ph level of 5.5 nitrogen efficiency is only 77 percent. • A soil ph level of 6.0 nitrogen efficiency still is only 89 percent. • At a soil ph level of 7.0 fertilizer efficiency is 100 percent.
