OPINION
TO OUR VALUED FARMER FRIENDS HAVE A SAFE & SUCCESSFUL HARVEST! Our Wish For You... May you, your family, and your workers stay safe May the weather be cooperative May your equipment stay running May your spirits stay high And may your yields be plentiful!!! Sincerely, Paul & Kimberly Kroubetz
Undocumented workers — including women and children — pick most of the nation’s fruit and vegetables, slaughter most of our livestock, milk a growing number of our cows, and mow millions of acres of our lawns. tion as a good solution to agriculture’s chronic labor shortage, according to a Feb. 2015, National Public Radio report by Dan Charles. Instead, Charles discovered, farmers’ loyalties are deeply split; they openly look the other way when they hire willing farmworkers they suspect are undocumented because the farmers need the laborers. Besides, one grower told him, “They’re just trying to feed their families.” But, the grower added, “giving more legal rights to those workers is probably bad for his business. He believes that (if) some of the workers… working in agriculture… gain legal status (then) ‘the pressure is off. Now they can go to the cities and look for construction jobs, or manufacturing jobs.’” While there’s little data to back up that belief, Charles explained, a key reason undocumented workers do flock to U.S. farms is that rural America is “a good place to hide from the authorities.” The hiding, of course, carries a price; there is little job safety and even fewer job benefits for undocumented workers and their families. You and I, however, profit from this
not-so-hidden labor force. Undocumented workers — including women and children — pick most of the nation’s fruit and vegetables, slaughter most of our livestock, milk a growing number of our cows, and mow millions of acres of our lawns. They are the key source of cheap American labor for our food system and losing any portion of it will cost us dearly. In 2012, the U.S. Department of Agriculture put a number on what that loss would be if, as some of the presidential candidates that year proposed, we patched our national sieve to keep these mostly brown hands away from our farms and out of our cities. According to USDA, if the United States cut the number of undocumented workers within our borders by half, or 5.8 million, “Fruit, tree nuts, vegetables, and nursery production (would experience) long-run relative declines of 2.0 to 5.4 percent in output and from 2.5 to 9.3 percent in exports…” And, “real wages would rise, on average from 3.9 to 9.9 percent” because of an unmet, and ever-growing, farm labor shortage. If, however, today’s temporary nonimmigrant ag worker programs were expanded by just 156,000 people, the same four ag sectors would see production rise, imports increase, and — because of an ample, guaranteed supply of workers — labor costs fall. So, the GOP candidates are right in one sense; the United States undoubtedly has an undocumented worker problem. Their proposed fix, however, is a disaster for everyone — you, me and “they.” The Farm and Food File is published weekly through the United States and Canada.

Cover story:
Irrigation tech improving water use efficiency By TIM KING The Land Correspondent BELGRADE, Minn. — People on the second annual bus tour of the Irrigators Association of Minnesota had the opportunity to witness an historic event on Aug. 20. “This is the earliest we’ve ever harvested sugar beets,” Todd Geselius of the Southern Minnesota Beet Sugar Cooperative told tour participants as they watched tons of beets tumble from a twelverow harvester into a semi-truck trailer at the Anderson family farm near Belgrade in Stearns County. “We are ten days early this year.” Not only were the beets early, they were predicted to be above average in yield. “We usually average 26 to 27 tons per acre,” Geselius said. “This year we are predicting a yield of 31 tons per acre.”

Geselius said the cooperative had 4,000 acres of sugar beets under irrigation in the Bonanza Valley. The Valley includes parts of western Stearns, Pope, Kandiyohi, and Douglas Counties. It generally has sandy or gravelly soils that were laid down by giant glacial melt water rivers. “We like irrigation. It provides consistency,” Geselius said. “They have high-quality beets here.” The consistency and high quality of irrigated crops were terms repeated a number of times throughout the tour, which included visits to Mycogen seed corn research fields, field corn fields, RD Offut potato fields, dry bean fields, and a variety of vegetable fields under contract to Lakeside Foods of Brooten. “We have 5,200 acres of peas and 6,200 acres of sweet corn under irrigation in the area,” Jeff Haugen of Lakeside Foods said. “We also have some carrots and table beets under irrigation.”

IRRIGATION, from pg. 6A Efficiency Although the season has required very little crop irrigation, farmers who irrigate in the Bonanza Valley continue to be concerned about both water quality and quantity, tour host Jim Anderson said. Anderson hosted a University of Minnesota nitrogen efficiency fertigation study a few years ago. “We are concerned about nitrogen,” he said. “We spoon-feed it and control it carefully.” Anderson, who farms 6,000 acres and operates 65 center pivot irrigators with his brother and three sons, demonstrated computerized technology on a center pivot irrigator. “Using GPS technology and mapping we can do variable rate irrigation on one center pivot,” he said. “We can put more water on the high dry sections that the center pit passes over and less on the lower areas with heavier soils. We can even turn a portion of the pivot off when it passes over a conservation wetland area.” “These variable rate irrigation systems can reduce water usage by up to 13 percent,” said Josh Stamper, an Irrigation Specialist with the University of Minnesota’s Department of Soil, Water, and Climate. “They can be a powerful conservation tool.” Over the years irrigation technology has been increasingly focused on using water more efficiently, Jerry Wright, the Membership Secretary of the Irrigation Association of Minnesota told tour participants. “When I started in irrigation most of the systems used traveling gun irrigation systems,” Wright said. “Traveling guns required high pressure and did not apply the water that consistently.

She and her husband, Mark, had just for harvest. “For the most part we’ve had a good finished baling straw the day before. She has more year so far for weather,” she said. “Overall, it’s hay to cut down with her third crop — a relatively been a good year.” new notion for Lee. “I only remember one other over two other rains.” Froemming said the corn looks good, with early day corn 100 percent dented, and 92-day corn half dented. The soybeans will be ready to harvest after rye planting is complete, he said, as “some of the early soybeans are starting to turn yellow.” Froemming predicts that “by the middle of September we’ll be rolling.”
The Froemmings Garfield, Minn. Most folks are talking about harvesting, but a little planting was also on Rodney Froemming’s mind. When The Land spoke with Froemming on Aug. 28 he reported “we’re starting to get ready to start planting rye.” He was looking to possibly start his third hay crop on Aug. 29. “Last week we got 1.3 inches, then we got another sixth-tenths
The Filzens Renville, Minn. Navy bean harvest will soon be underway for Dale Filzen. The Land spoke with Filzen on Aug. 28 as he was “getting ready to combine navys.” He planned on starting either Aug. 29 or 30 — “a little on the early side.” Filzen’s happy with how the navy beans look and expects that “they’ll be real good.” The soybeans “got a fair amount of white mold after the rain,” although the two inches that fell the previous weekend were certainly
needed. “Some of the soybeans are starting to turn,” said Filzen. He expects it will be three weeks until harvest. “The corn looks pretty good,” he said, observing that “some early corn is starting to dent — it’s coming along good.” Filzen said the sugar beets are doing quite well, also. He said he’s pleased they “got some moisture to finish (the crops) off.”
The Thorpes Canby, Minn. The humidity isn’t Nathan Thorpe’s friend. “It’s been a real pain to work in,” he told The Land Sept. 6. He was more than ready for cooler, lesshumid temperatures to arrive in the next day. “The earlier beans are really turning,” Thorpe said. He estimates that he will start combining soybeans in about three weeks. The corn is “excellent” Thorpe said, noting that “we’re seeing green stocks with the husk starting to turn colors.” He is looking
The Pagels Winthrop, Minn. “The crops are really maturing.” When The Land spoke with Delayne Pagel on Sept. 6 he reported that he’d begun kidney bean harvest on the first of the month. So far, Pagel said he likes what he sees — “It looks like it’s going to be a good crop.” As for the corn, Pagel said that he “can’t complain.” Meanwhile, the soybeans are
“turning colors; looking OK.” Overall, Pagel is happy with the crops thus far, and calls them “above average.”
The Marbles Mapleton, Minn. With his wrist surgery behind him and only a week and a half left of arm lifting restrictions, Harlan Marble is looking forward to being a part of harvest. When The Land spoke with Marble on Sept. 4 he reported that they’ve got three soybean fields that are turning, he said, and the leaves are starting to come off already; one field of
corn is doing the same. The other corn fields are “pretty green yet.” Marble said he heard that this summer will go down on record as the thirdgreatest summer in Minnesota history, and he doesn’t disagree. “The crops in southern Minnesota reflect that,” he said. Marble is looking forward to seeing the yield numbers — “I think for our area they’re going to come up with some very high corn yields.” As for his crops in general, Marble is “thrilled” with how they look.
The Kemps Sibley, Iowa “Everything is progressing nicely,” according to Brian Kemp. When The Land spoke with Kemp on Sept. 6, he talked about the changes he was seeing in the soybean crop. “We got a few varieties of soybeans turning yellow.” Kemp believes it will be a couple of weeks before bean harvest begins. Meanwhile, “the corn is looking good (and) starting to show signs of maturity.” The milk line is “about 50 percent,” and he is seeing
“some die-back in the tops.” With harvest coming soon Kemp is about to get the combine ready to go to the field. It isn’t just harvest that he’s looking forward to, however; the Clay County Fair in Spencer, Iowa, begins on Sept. 12. Kemp calls it “the agricultural event in northwest Iowa.” What better way to end the summer and bring on the fall?

above average is attainable.” The soybeans are “really good ... just starting to turn with one variety (and have) lots of pods.” Haarstad estimated it would be three weeks until harvest. In the meantime, he said, they’re “starting to get the bin site up and ready to go.” He said that cropwise, “we’re sitting as good as we can be. Our biggest enemy right now would be the frost.”

Sheep showing a cross-state, State Fair 4-H family tradition By MARIE WOOD The Land Associate Editor When 13-year-old Elizabeth Thiesen, of Alden, Iowa, takes her sheep to the fair, she knows exactly what the judges are looking for in breeding and showmanship. She has the purple and blue ribbons to prove it. “They’re looking for the wool quality, that it’s good,” she said. “A sheep that is long and has a straight back. Most of the judges like a sheep that is tall. A lot will take into consideration how their mouth is, that they don’t have an underbite or overbite.” Elizabeth, a member of Franklin County 4-H Tri-L Club, competed at the Iowa State Fair in the breeding sheep division, other wool breeds class. She was awarded Champion Columbia yearling ewe and Reserve Champion Columbia ewe lamb. Her younger brother, Colby Thiesen, received a blue ribbon in breeding sheep. Elizabeth isn’t the only champion in the family. Her cousins Mauren and Maesyn Thiesen live in Sauk Centre, Minn., and are members of Stearns County 4-H Pelican Peak Club. They earned purple ribbons at the Minnesota State Fair this year. In the breeding sheep division, 15-year-old Maesyn was awarded Champion Columbia ewe lamb and 18-yearold Mauren was awarded Champion Columbia yearling ewe. Maesyn was Reserve Champion in breeding sheep senior showmanship while Mauren placed fourth in advanced showmanship. They all get their sheep from Grandpa’s farm, which supports a flock of roughly 35 ewes. Their grandpa, Leland Thiesen, breeds sheep and operates
For Over 53 Years
Thiesen Family Columbias in Windom, Minn. He gets help from his three sons — Brian, Ken and Stephen Thiesen. “My dad has been the leader of the whole organization and he really installed a joy in all three of his sons for being involved in 4-H and sheep projects and also the showing side,” said Ken, Mauren and Maesyn’s dad. In April, Elizabeth, her dad, Brian, and younger brothers Colby and Jackson head to Grandpa’s place to choose the sheep they will show that year. Mauren, Maesyn and younger brother Macoy do the same with their dad, Ken. “We all go and divvy them up between all of us grandchildren,” said Mauren. “My dad and his brothers make suggestions,” said Elizabeth, “but for the most part we get to choose.” “It’s always an exciting time when they decide which ones each are going to show for the year,” said Leland. At 75 years old, Leland has been in the sheep business for 40 years and keeps the sheep primarily for the grandkids to show. Still the operation remains profitable as they sell breeding stock and wool. He relies on four things to turn out champion sheep: “Good breeding, good feeding, good preparation, and good showing.” “We’ve established a good ewe base and try to select top rams to go with them,” he said. Leland attends county and state fairs to watch his grandchildren show. “That’s part of being a grandpa.” See THIESENS, pg. 12A

Grandpa inspired passion for sheep showing THIESENS, from pg. 10A Chores The real work begins when Elizabeth gets the sheep home. She feeds the sheep the same feed that Grandpa uses — a mix of corn and protein with a little oats and molasses. They also get alfalfa hay. “We work with them a lot,” she said. “We clip them all once or twice by hand before every show.” The first time Elizabeth puts sheep on the stand for trimming can be tough, but they calm down. In fact, she works with them for many hours to get them to be “pretty calm” in the show ring. “We walk them around a lot so they’re calm. We have to go out and do chores,” said Elizabeth. Her father, Brian, said he is proud of his daughter and how well she’s doing. “She gets up every morning, does the chores, ties them up and leads them around,” he said. Mauren has been showing sheep since she was 5. At 18 years old, she is a freshman at the University of Minnesota-Morris. “I think it’s taught me a lot of good skills — one is to communicate with other people in the breed and help teach the public about different positives of livestock and what we’re doing and why we’re doing it,” said Mauren. Showing sheep has also taught her patience and that you have to work hard and put in your time to learn the best possible way to showcase yourself and the animal. From her grandpa, she learned about breeding and the importance of enjoying what you’re doing. “He wants to create that love and passion for all of us in the sheep,” Mauren said. “Loving what you’re doing and enjoying every second around the sheep and the people.”

Left to right: Cousins Elizabeth Thiesen of Alden, Iowa, and Maesyn and Mauren Thiesen of Sauk Centre, Minn., were each sheep showing champions at their respective state fairs this summer. Elizabeth is pictured at Franklin County Fair in Iowa. Showtime Right before the show, Elizabeth walks her sheep around to calm its nerves. When she shows her sheep, she holds the head up and sets the front and back legs square. “In the back, if they dip down, you can scratch their belly to bring that up,” she explained. Then the judge will have the sheep walk around and they look at how they walk, said Elizabeth. Elizabeth enjoyed her time at the Iowa State Fair. She went down early with her family for the open class before competing in the 4-H sheep show. “I just like walking around and seeing all the different animals and just showing sheep,” she said. “I like the competition that everyone else brings to the show ring.” Elizabeth also took home a blue ribbon in showmanship with her Colum-
bia ewe lamb at the Iowa State Fair. In showmanship, the judges are looking at how you are presenting your sheep rather than the sheep’s characteristics, she explained. “I make eye contact with the judge. When he messes with the wool, I smooth it back out,” she said. “I always make sure the sheep is between me and the judge so I change sides. I make sure that my sheep is set up in the right position and set up quickly.” “You want to make yourself as least noticeable as possible,” said Mauren. Breeder shows Besides 4-H, the Thiesen family shows in open class and breeder shows including the Columbia Sheep Breeders National Show and Sale. “The most fun as a parent is to see the connections they’ve made and the people they’ve gotten to know by being involved with the sheep and the showing side of it,” said Ken.
In November, Elizabeth will head to the North American International Livestock Exposition Sheep Show in Louisville, Ky. She has already chosen her sheep for that show. Her ewe lamb will be the same one, but she will show a different ram lamb and yearling ewe. Grandpa and Dad took Elizabeth to the show last year. “It was definitely a lot bigger than what I expected it to be,” she said. “I thought it was really nice, all the different sheep that were there.” Even so, Elizabeth didn’t come across any sheep breeds that she didn’t know. Leland said he doesn’t give advice on showing to his granddaughters these days. “They pretty well all know what to do or they wouldn’t be doing as well as they are,” said Leland. Elizabeth said Grandpa can still be counted on for encouragement — a “good job” or “keep it up.” ❖

wave and bottling demand are pushing milk intakes slightly lower but manufacturers report available milk is adequate. Western milk intakes are reduced, due to increases in bottling demand and the seasonal decline in milk production, but manufacturers report cheese production has remained active. Export opportunities for cheese are down but domestic demand is good and is keeping inventories from getting out of control, says Dairy Market News. Cash butter finished Friday at $2.4525, up 11.25 cents on the week but 39.25 cents below a year ago when it was trading at $2.8450 and on its way to set a record high that topped $3 a pound. Thirteen cars traded hands in the week before Labor Day. Butter production in the Central region is steady, according to Dairy Market News. Milk intakes and butterfat components are trending lower, but some churners are curtailing cream spot sales to help fill churning schedules. National butter holdings are above a year ago however market participants cite concern over how much butter is actually uncommitted and available to meet upcoming needs, especially since the McDonald’s announcement regarding the transition to butter. Spot Grade A nonfat dry milk also had a good week, closing Friday at 90 cents per pound, up 13 cents on the week and the highest spot price since June 11, but still 43.25 cents below a year ago.

Mozzarella, at 331.7 million pounds, was up 1.3 percent from a year ago and year-to-date totaled 2.3 billion pounds, up 1.0 percent. American-type cheese production totaled 393.2 million pounds, up 2.4 percent from June, up 3.4 percent from a year

Cheddar output in July amounted to 282.1 million pounds, up 4.7 percent from a year ago; with year-to-date at 1.97 billion pounds, up 2.5 percent. HighGround Dairy’s Eric Meyer reports that “Total cheese production saw the slightest percentage decline from June in history (based on daily average basis). While July has more
days of the month than June, U.S. daily average cheese production has a spring peak in April and begins declining through September. July only had production drop 248,000 pounds per day versus June. However, we do not count this as extremely bearish yet as inventories only rose by 20 million pounds on an extra 24 million pounds produced.” Butter totaled 133.3 million pounds, See MIELKE, pg. 18A

stronger production. There seems to be a bit of panic in the air with memories of last year fresh in buyers’ minds, but there is little evidence to suggest prices can hold at these historic levels for a second straight season once holiday demand has been fulfilled and imported fat begins making its way to shore in Fourth Quarter.” Nonfat dry milk totaled 155.1 million pounds, down 6.9 percent, with year-todate output hitting 1.2 billion pounds, up 8.5 percent. Skim milk powder totaled 35.1 million pounds in July, up 23.0 percent, with year-to-date output at 255.4 million pounds, down 22.9 percent from 2014. The report pegged July 31 NFDM stocks at 269.7 million pounds, up 7.4 million pounds or 2.8 percent from June and 8.5 percent above a year ago. You’ll recall that I reported last week that June fluid milk sales were up for the first time in five months. Interestingly, the Aug. 28 Daily Dairy Report adds that whole milk sales propelled the increase as whole milk sales totaled 1.122 billion pounds, up 74 million pounds, or 7.1 percent from a year ago. ■ In politics; the National Milk Producers Federation urged the Obama administration to hold off national enforcement of the new “Waters of the U.S.” regulation, in response to a court decision last week suspending the regulation in some states. Last Thursday the U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota halted
implementation of the water regulation, granting a temporary injunction in favor of 13 states that brought suit in North Dakota against the Environmental Protection Agency and the Army Corps of Engineers. The EPA said after the court ruling that it would not implement the rule in the 13 states that were part of the suit: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming. In light of the potential for confusion and inconsistent application of the regulation following the ruling, NMPF said in a letter sent Monday to the EPA and the Army that the government should suspend enforcement of the WOTUS nationwide. “The EPA implementation schedule for the Clean Water Rule now treats dairy farmers differently nationwide, and clearly falls short of the EPA’s goals of ‘greater clarity, consistency, and predictability when making jurisdictional determinations,’” NMPF President and CEO Jim Mulhern said in the letter. “Therefore, we ask that EPA and the Corps of Engineers use their enforcement discretion and cease application of the recent WOTUS rule in all 50 states, until such time as it can be evenly applied in every state.” Lee Mielke is a syndicated columnist who resides in Everson, Wash.

By MARIE WOOD The Land Associate Editor MANKATO, Minn. — “You guys are our partners in the field,” said Ray Hart to a room full of Minnesota soybean growers at the Biodiesel and Bioheat Forum hosted by the Minnesota Soybean Research and Promotion Council in August. Hart’s new tagline isn’t a reality yet, but there is potential. Hart is the owner of Hart Home Comfort, a familyowned heating oil business in Long Island, N.Y. In 1998, he took a big risk and bought an oil terminal and made the major capital investment to blend biodiesel with heating oil, known as Bioheat. Hart, an early provider of Bioheat, began delivering the blend to customers in 2007. Today, he offers

The Nuhn Lagoon Crawler is an amphibious vehicle designed for agitating lagoons.
When in the lagoon, the Lagoon Crawler is powered by a quad port, Nuhn Header Series manure pump. 10000+GPM volumes are used to maneuver the pontoon through the lagoon and agitate the solids from the bottom. The Nuhn Lagoon Crawler does not need a priming system. Once the lagoon is emptied, the four wheels are lowered and the machine is able to drive itself out of the lagoon.

‘If we didn’t have biodiesel, how cheap would beans be?’ BIOHEAT, from pg. 19A York harbor by barge. According to Paul Nazzaro, of Nazzaro Group and petroleum liaison to the National Biodiesel Board, many of those barges come from Argentina. Nazarro recognized the challenge for Minnesota farmers to get biodiesel into the New England market. “We will work on it with them,” said Nazzaro. “There are as many challenges as opportunities.” Future goals for Bioheat are to increase the biodiesel content to 20 percent and B6 to B20 biodiesel blends have been approved. With an increase in demand for biodiesel, Bioheat could be an emerging market for Minnesota biodiesel. In addition, the Northeast needs biodiesel at a time when Minnesota cuts back on biodiesel use in trucks, Nazzaro said.
Biodiesel Biodiesel and Bioheat markets have a ripple effect on the soybean market in making the beans and oil more valuable while keeping the cost of soymeal down for livestock producers and global hunger programs. Osakis, Minn., farmer Tom Grundman, a director in the Minnesota Soybean Growers Association, said the event showed just how important biodiesel is to our industry. Soybean oil, a major feedstock in biodiesel production, has a 50 percent share in the market. “In the ’90s we were spraying that soybean oil on the roads. It was a waste,” said Grundman. “Informa Economics did a study and said it’s (biodiesel) putting 70 cents to 90 cents a bushel in our pockets.” Mike Youngerberg, senior director of

field services for the Minnesota Soybean Growers Association, received the Biodiesel Award of Excellence at the forum. Youngerberg got involved in biodiesel in 1999 when he worked on the Minnesota biodiesel mandate — a B2 mandate which took effect in 2005. That means biodiesel made from vegetable oils — often soybean oil — must be blended at a two percent ratio with diesel fuel. Youngerberg continued his involvement through the current mandate for B10 in the summer months, reverting to B5 in the winter months. In 2018, the mandate is scheduled to jump to B20 in the summer months. Minnesota has three biodiesel plants with a combined production of 63 million gallons, according to the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. The MDA estimates current production capacity will cover almost all of the demand for B20 for trucks and diesel engines. Vernon Pooch, a Farwell, Minn., contract soybean seed producer and direc-
tor in the MSR&PC, is quick to promote the homegrown renewable fuel. “It’s absolutely excellent for the farmers to have Bioheat,” he said. “If we didn’t have biodiesel, how cheap would beans be? I’m glad to hear that they’re using Bioheat because it helps clean up the air a lot.” Increasing the capacity to produce biodiesel in Minnesota may be necessary to serve the Bioheat market. When it comes to the biodiesel tax credit, Luepke of Minnesota Soybean Processors would like to see a production credit instead of a blender’s credit. The American Soybean Association supports shifting the tax credit from a blender’s credit to a domestic producer’s credit. This would promote domestic production and eliminate the ability of foreign-produced biodiesel to claim the credit. “The producer’s credit would help out our industry, state and soybean farmers,” Luepke said. ❖
Pioneer Power Show largest of its kind in U.S. While tractors, threshers and old gas and steam engines dominate the show, one of the most popular places at the power show is the miniature train that slowly carries riders along a miniature track that winds through the woods on the edge of the property. John Barklow and his late dad, also named John, started the Miniature Land building at the show in 1980, featuring models of everything from airplanes to machinery and small steam engines. “My dad and I always went to
threshing shows and joined here in ’79. In ’95 we put in a small loop of track and did a small railroad.” At each show, about 2,000 people ride the little trains through the woods. “It’s mostly for the little kids, they just love it,” Barklow said. A group of helpers, including railroad engineers, power plant steam engineers and enthusiasts keep the trains running each year. The trains are pulled by a mix of electric, gas and steam engines.

By SARAH JOHNSON The Land Correspondent Looking for recipes in “The Minnesota Table: Recipes for Savoring Local Food Throughout the Year” (Voyageur Press) is like falling down a rabbit hole: The recipes are entirely surrounded by tempting stories, photos and original art that capture your eye and imagination. Hours later you remember you were hungry and start searching again … only to fall down another rabbit hole. But procrastination never felt, or tasted, so good. Readers get to meet nuns who bake communion wafers, yak farmers, apple growers, sausage makers and a host of other colorful characters providing food for the Minnesota table. There are sections on freezing berries, making the perfect pot of tea, and drying herbs. It’s not just a cookbook; it’s a sit-downand-read-it book offering lessons in cooking, eating and life in general. ■ I finally chose the Kale and Walnut Sauté, a deceptively simple dish made stellar by a blend of flavorful sesame and olive oils and a dash of rice vinegar. As a side dish for the carnivores and an entrée for the vegan, it was a tasty success, although kale is not on the top of anybody’s list except for the vegan (go figure).

COOKBOOK, from pg. 23A Drain the hard-boiled eggs and immediately place in the ice-water bath for 5-10 minutes. Once cooled, drain again. Roll the eggs in a kitchen towel to crack the shells; they should peel off cleanly and easily. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise, scoop the yolks into a bowl, and arrange the whites on the kitchen towel, cut side up. Mash the eggs yolks in a large bowl with the back of a fork (or push through a ricer). Fold in the prepared dressing, taste for seasoning, and adjust. Place egg yolk mixture in a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip (or in a gallon-sized zip-top bag, snipping off one corner after filling); pipe into the cooked egg whites. Garnish with cayenne pepper. ■ Visitors to the State Fair’s bee and honey exhibits may have sampled the delicious honey lemonade sold there for many years. This recipe promises to fill the gaps between fair times. Store it in the refrigerator for lemonade on the spot. Honey Lemonade Makes 3 cups syrup 3⁄4 cup light honey 1 cup water 1/8 teaspoon salt Rind of 2 lemons, cut into strips Juice of 6 lemons Combine the honey, water, salt and lemon rind in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Cool and add the lemon juice. Strain and refrigerate in a tightly covered glass jar. To serve, fill an 8-ounce glass with ice; add water and 2 tablespoons of honey lemonade syrup, and stir. Garnish with a bruised sprig of fresh mint and lemon zest if desired.

Grain Outlook Early frost talk disappears
Livestock Angles Cattle struggle, drift lower
Grain Angles China ethanol imports up
The following market analysis is for the week ending Sept. 4. CORN — December corn slid 12 cents lower last week to close at $3.63 per bushel as it moves closer to the $3.57 1⁄2 contract low. Nearly ideal weather will finish off the crop in good fashion and any talk about an early frost disappeared. So goes Chinese economic news, so goes our commodity markets. The demise last week began with China’s Purchasing Managers’ Index for August which fell to 49.7 and indicates a contracting economy. This was their lowest rating since August 2012. PHYLLIS NYSTROM CHS Hedging Inc. China’s equity market was St. Paul closed for their Victory Day the last two trading days of the week, allowing markets and players to position into the long Labor Day weekend. Corn conditions fell just one percent to 68 percent good/excellent as of Aug. 30, which was expected as the growing season winds down. The coming week will likely see another decline. Sixty percent of the crop was dented with nine percent of the crop mature versus 15 percent on average. The harvest percentage won’t be reported for probably another two weeks; but in the states’ individual reports, Illinois reported one percent of the crop had been harvested versus three percent on average, Missouri at two percent versus 11 percent average, Texas 50 percent vs. 52 percent average, Louisiana 92 percent vs. 85 percent average and Mississippi 68 percent vs. 57 percent average.
It has been a very uneven past couple of weeks in the livestock markets. The cattle market is struggling and drifting lower, while the hog market after a rally in prices is beginning to turn lower. The economic conditions around the world seem to be dominating all markets these days. Cattle prices have slipped the past several weeks as demand for beef has been very slow. The weights of cattle have increased dramatically over the past few months which has offset to a certain degree the lack of animals available for slaughter. This has weakened the position of the cattle feeder for the most part in the JOE TEALE price discovery process for the Broker past several weeks. Great Plains Commodity Afton, Minn. As a result prices have declined to levels not seen for months. It would appear that if demand does not pick up significantly in the very near future, cattle prices may continue to slip lower. One obstacle in the way of increased demand would be the strength in the U.S. dollar which has made export business significantly more expensive for those countries that import U.S. beef. Another important factor in the demand for beef is the fact that the competitive meats are of better value to the consumer than beef in poor economic conditions. So despite the fact that cattle numbers are expected to remain tight for some time, the demand has become the dominant feature in the price discovery process. Producers should be aware of market conditions and protect inventories as needed.
Lately news headlines about China have been less than positive when it comes to U.S. agricultural exports going to China. With China’s currency devaluation putting a strain on U.S. agricultural exports, and the stock market on the decline, an increase in Chinese ethanol imports is one of the bright spots. Recently COFCO, the state-run grain trading company in China, has started importing sugar cane based ethanol out of Brazil from Noble, a company which was acquired earlier this past spring. This is thought to be the first ethanol shipped from Brazil to China since 2012. KURT LENSING At the same time COFCO has AgStar Assistant VP & Industry Specialist increased ethanol imports from Waite Park, Minn. the United States. The U.S. ethanol industry is the largest in the world, with over 14.3 billion gallons produced last year. The majority of our ethanol is used domestically in gasoline blends. With ethanol blend rates stuck at 10 percent, the industry is looking for additional marketing channels until domestic gasoline blend levels potentially increase. Increasing exports have been a priority for the industry. In the past couple years ethanol exports have accounted for roughly 4.5 percent to six percent of production. In 2015, year-to-date exports have surpassed 2014 levels due to an influx in Chinese purchases. Corn, the primary feedstock for U.S. ethanol production, costs about one third the price of heavily subsidized corn prices in China. Therefore ethanol

LENSING, from 26A prices are also inflated in China. The accompanying chart is provided by the Renewable Fuels Association and shows U.S. production vs. demand. The question remains, is this influx of Chinese ethanol buying a new trend that’s been driven by lower corn prices? Or, are the Chinese simply looking to fill inventories at today’s prices? If ethanol exports were to increase by 50 percent this year it would be equivalent to increasing corn demand by 150 million bushels. The ethanol tax credit has been discontinued since January of 2012, however ethanol producers continue to provide the domestic and export markets with competitively priced fuel.

THE LAND, SEPTEMBER 11, 2015
NYSTROM, from pg. 26A Informa Economics updated their crop estimates this week, pegging harvested acres at 80.786 million acres, yield at 168.8 bushels per acre for a total crop of 13.633 billion bushels. Minnesota’s yield was forecasted at 184 bu./acre, Illinois at 180 bu./acre, Iowa 183 bu./acre, Indiana 160 bu./acre, Nebraska 184 bu./acre, North Dakota 127 bu./acre and South Dakota at 155 bu./acre. Weekly export sales as a whole were a disappointment with old crop sales of 4.4 million bushels bringing total old crop commitments to 1.866 billion bushels. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s last forecast was for 1.85 billion bushels, so it looks like export sales will be on target. However, new crop sales were less than expected at 12.9 million bushels. Total 2015-16 export sales are just 274.3 million bushels when last year we had 412.4 million bushels committed. As we begin the 2015-16 crop year, export sales are the lowest in 10 years. Brazil’s August corn exports were a record 4.5 mmt with another 5.4 mmt in the line-up. In that line-up, there were 50,000 metric tons nominated for Mexico. The 2012-13 crop year was the last time Brazil sold Mexico corn. Also keep in mind, China implemented new stricter regulations Sept. 1 for permitting distiller’s dried grains, sorghum, and barley imports. Trade talk also included hints that China may cut the minimum corn support price paid to farmers by 20 percent. U.S. corn export prices were running about $10 per ton higher than Brazilian origin last week. All of this is not friendly for U.S. corn prices.

First support will be the contract low at $3.57 1⁄2, then $3.46 3⁄4 per bushel. Resistance in the December contract lies at $3.75 3⁄4 per bushel. Corn basis for the week was mixed with processors enjoying good margins and paying up for corn, while the export corridor was weaker on higher
barge freight. The nearby corn spread widened as corn deliveries against the September contract were heavy. This pattern supports ideas the December/March spread may also weaken. December corn has fallen during the month of September in 10 of the last 15 years. SOYBEANS — November soybeans tumbled 19 cents lower in the week prior to the Labor Day holiday. Without fresh bullish news, soybean prices are leaning toward the contract low of $8.55 per bushel.

The pace needs to kick into gear if we expect to achieve the USDA 1.825 billion bushel export forecast for 2015-16. Recent weather has allowed for a good finish to the crop and supported ideas for excellent yields. Harvest has begun in Minnesota and North Dakota, but early news has been scarce. Soybean ratings as of Aug. 30 were steady for the fifth straight week at 63 percent good/excellent. Usually we would begin to see conditions decline as we go into September and this year should not be an exception. Soybeans dropping leaves were nine percent on the last report compared to seven percent on average. Informa Economics refreshed crop outlook put harvested acres at 82.544 million acres, yield at 47.0 bu./acre and production at 3.873 billion bushels. Weekly export sales for old crop were a negative 2.2 million bushels for a total 1.858 billion bushels committed as of Aug. 27. The USDA projection for 2014-15 is 1.825 billion bushels. Export sales on the September crop report could be expected to be raised 15-20 million bushels. New crop sales at 56.3 million bushels were better than anticipated, but brought total commitments to only 494.2 million bushels. Last year we had 796.4 million bushels booked. Export commitments for the 2015-16 crop year are the second lowest in the last seven years. This week we did see some new crop sales with 773,000 metric tons to unknown and 110,000 metric tons to China. The pace needs to kick into gear if we expect to achieve the USDA 1.825 billion bushel export forecast for 2015-16. See NYSTROM, pg. 31A

Crude oil volatility was high for the week, but when it was all said and done prices were only up 83 cents at $46.05 per barrel. The ultra-low-sulfur diesel contract showed only a half-cent increase for the week, reformulated blendstock for oxygenate blending rallied nearly 2 1⁄4 cents, and natural gas retreated six cents. ❖

NYSTROM, from pg. 30A The Brazilian real traded 70 percent weaker versus the U.S. dollar than a year ago. This makes Brazilian exports more attractive than U.S. origin and is leading to outlooks that include higher Brazilian soybean acreage in the coming crop year. Informa’s fresh projection for Brazil’s 2015 soybean production is 99 mmt, an increase of 1.5 mmt from last month. Brazil’s soybean planting should begin in about two weeks AgRural estiand Argentina’s in a mated new month.

Interesting stats from the 2014 Tenure Ownership and Transition of Agricultural Land survey, of the 911 million acres of land in farms in the lower 48 states, 61 percent is operated by the land owner, eight percent is rented from other farm operators, and 31 percent is rented from non-operating landlords. OUTLOOK: According to the latest COT report as of Sept. 1, speculators added 1,427 contracts to their net short position to put them at net short 38,298 contracts.

P
aul Bunyan and Babe have seen a lot since they moved to Bemidji some 80 years ago. Recently, during the summer of 2015, construction workers and machines buzzed about them as they worked on a park renovation project. As you may know, Paul and Babe were invited there by the business community to boost tourism. Ever since, the two heroes have posed for photos with generations of lovely and uncomplaining children. Then the families have happily patronized Bemidji businesses. It has been a successful partnership. In the winter of 1971 my brother and I had the opportunity to dine with a gentleman who worked with Mr. Bunyan in the forests of North Dakota shortly before Bunyan’s retirement. We lived in the woods outside of Ely and were off our luck. Our choices were to get on food stamps or become loggers for the renowned Harry Honer. In ’71 the snow was deep and no one wanted woods work. The food stamp application line snaked down Sheridan Street, along the Fernberg Road, across Moose Lake to the Canadian border. A few applicants got in line on the border’s north side and were picked up by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and incarcerated in Atikokan. They ate well. That’s when the term Canadian Food Stamps started. We didn’t have enough gas in the van to get to Moose Lake so we headed up the Echo Trail to work for Mr. Honer. “You boys *#%? better do it right,” he growled.
Paul and Babe, Bemidji, Minn. Once we turned off the trail Mr. Honer’s crews had excavated tunnels through the snow and we drove through them to the logging site. There a fellow handed us shovels. “Trees is that way,” he pointed. We started digging. Pretty soon my brother struck a tree trunk. He sawed it off at the stump. It couldn’t fall over
so I tunneled up it, swamping off the limbs as I climbed. Near the top I broke through the surface of the snow. I cut the top off, climbed back down the tunnel I’d made, and we dug our way to the next big spruce. We did 31 trees by lunch and were pretty hungry. We walked down the tunnel until we saw a light at the end.
Joe Logger’s shack was there. He was eating moose and spruce grouse stew. He shared it. We shared our wild hare sandwiches with him. That’s when he told us about working with Mr. Bunyan on Teddy Roosevelt’s logging crew along the Little Missouri in western Dakota. “Skeeters was bad,” he began. ❖

YOU MEET THE NICEST PEOPLE AT THE STATE FAIR!
THE LAND
By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer
Hometown: Howard Lake, Minn. Status: Sophomore at South Dakota State University, majoring in Ag Education Factoid: Recently named 2015 Princess Kay of the Milky Way What is your role as Princess Kay? “I’ll be visiting throughout the state wherever I can be a voice for the Minnesota dairy industry.” What got you interested in the Princess Kay competition? “When I was little we’d come to the State Fair. I would see the butter sculptures of the dairy princess candidates and I thought ‘that would be really cool to have my head carved out of butter.’ As I got older I realized more and more what the Princess Kay program is all about. In essence, it is communicating with people what dairy farming and milk production is all about and the hard work and dedication it demands. That’s truly why I got involved.” How can being a college student and being Princess Kay work out — How can you do both? “Last year I was the Minnesota State FFA Officer so I learned how to juggle that with being a full time SDSU student. It’s all about time management. I enjoy talking with my college professors. They always work with me and my schedule as Princess Kay. I think everything will go well.”

‘Stench’ in pop culture no longer crinkles our noses For me, it’s the best week of the year. Yet within its seven days it literally reeked. On one of the first nights of our family vacation up north, it started. When youngest daughter Melanie and I entered our vacation home on Monday eve I said, “The good news is that I missed the deer. The bad news THE BACK PORCH is that I nixed a skunk.” We By Lenae Bulthuis carried its residue into the home and no one doubted our report. A few sleeps later on our first night back at the farm we had a problem no one wants or wishes for. Something went awry with the septic system that wrenched the strongest stomach. Whether outside or inside the home there was no masking the foul. Candles tried; time won. Two days later on a way to an appointment where we would mix in the midst of town folks mostly isolated from country odor, Mike and I stopped to talk to manure haulers. Mike lowered the window and I masked how it took my breath away. Yet one of the guys asked, “Did you bring pop and cookies?” Are you kidding me? In the smell he’s wondering if we brought snacks? As if once, instead of thrice, wasn’t enough for the convincing, I thought, “ You get used to the stench.” In all three scenarios what was initially an unbelievable stink, in time became tolerable — nearly unnoticeable. And it caused me to think on my mom’s commentary of a childhood sitcom, “Three’s Company.” I said it was funny; she did not. In a show revolving around three single roommates — two girls and one guy, the basis of the show stank with innuendos. No need to show and tell, the context was enough for her to say, “No go.” And when Mom said no, no meant no. At the time, I disagreed. In today’s world “Three’s Company” would not be a crowd, but part of the crowd and culture. It’s now tame in the name of entertainment. As a show it’s mild for the morning, and in the eve may even lull little ones to sleep. What happened? And how did this happen? I believe we got used to the stench. What used to be cause for alarm is now status quo. Trash talk became trendy, the shocking is standard, and the amiss acceptable. Some say, “If you can’t beat them, join them.” We can nod and shrug in agreement or we can stand up, speak up, and live in the light. Moving our youngest daughter into downtown Chicago for the fall semester was a step of faith by See BULTHUIS, pg. 3B

I quickly corrected her, as moms can readily do. “The size of the organization doesn’t matter,” I said. “What makes the differ-
ence is what is done in relationship.” If you want to change the world, it happens one person at a time. Got something gone wrong in your community or your side of the tracks or section? Instead of talking about it, speak face to face with the ones in the midst of it. Within conversation you’ll more readily understand their thoughts and choices. Build a relationship, and you could change the trajec-
tory of their lives. Replace stench with friendship. And within that friendship you may experience hope and peace that changes the world with the sweet aroma of God’s love.

BULTHUIS, from pg. 2B Mike and me. Although it may not be a big deal for city folk, it was hard for us. We love country roads where we recognize people by pickups and greet folks on the street by name. But this is what she wanted and her heart’s desire lined up with ours. She’s working with an organization that inspires “motivated individuals to break the cycle of homelessness and poverty, transform their lives, strengthen their communities, and forge paths to real and lasting success.” She was almost apologetic to be

Tips on using dahlias as cut flowers: The best time to cut your flowers is in the cool early morning. Place the cut dahlia stems in 2-3 inches of very hot water (160-180 F) and allow to cool for about an hour. This hot water treatment will make the blossoms last from four to six days in
