would provide the food service industry a major incentive to offer more healthy alternatives. There would be many long-term health benefits which would pay dividends by reducing our health care costs. We are all looking for ways to reduce health care costs. The benefits of this program are available to all citizens of Minnesota regardless if they own farm property, lake homes or single family homes. College students would love this benefit (and we all know about the student loan crisis). For a family of four, this benefit would be about the same as proposals to reduce property taxes on 160 acres of farm land — provided they make the healthy choices for lunch. I believe this is a far better way to return the state’s surplus to the citizens of Minnesota. We need a new generation of leaders who see the problems differently. However, getting into the legislature is a very difficult process for the average citizen. it requires raising a lot of money and time to get the message out in the public’s view. Current legislators have an enormous advantage. Earl L. Schaeller Cosmos, Minn.
See GUEBERT, pg 4A
“Where Farm and Family Meet”
To the Editor: Minnesota is currently enjoying a surplus of about 1.1 billion dollars. However, the current proposals by both parties don’t provide any relief for working class citizens who don’t own property or provide incentives to address the greatest challenge of our lifetime; which is health care. As the ecnomy picked up, most working class families have been asked to work more hours — providing less time for grocery shopping and healthy meal preparation. This has been a windfall to the fast food industry and the state of Minnesota through sales tax on lunch. The State of Minnesota is missing out on a great opportunity to provide modest tax relief for all of the citizens of Minnesota, providing they make healthy choices for lunch. An employed family of four can easily spend $500 a year on sales tax just on lunch, especially if they are attending college. This is a sneaky tax that hits working class families hard. A much better way to give back some of this state’s surplus would be to have a sales tax waiver on lunches which contribute to a healthy lifestyle. Requirements could be similar to other nutrition programs such as WIC. This
and federal level. By design, however, this narrow policy base delivers narrow-minded policies. For example, despite overwhelming consumer support to label the origin of meat and poultry sold in the U.S. (Country of Origin Labeling, or COOL) a few farm and commodity groups successfully held it at arm’s length until they finally strangled it with global trading rules. Some of those same groups worked to “ditch” the Waters of the U.S. rule even as consumer anger over water quality rises to a fever pitch. Others continue to fight any state effort to label food content, and a few even continue to claim climate change is either a hoax or conspiracy or both. None of these simple “solutions” solves any of the underlying problems farmers and ranchers face now or down the road. Consumers will always want to know where their food comes from and will always want its ingredients labeled. Moreover, “ditching” any

Simple also describes how Big Ag votes for U.S. presidents. Farm Futures explained it this way: “(Our) survey is dominated by commercial-sized, fulltime farmers” where “about 85 percent or more of these growers typically vote for Republican candidates at the presidential level.” Wow, if elections in farm country really are that simple. Virtually every GOP candidate is A-OK in Big Ag’s eyes? Why would any candidate need to know the difference between say, coffee and CAFOs; or ethanol and your neighbor Ethel; when one party already has 85 out of 100 votes in its pocket? This simple, sad electoral fact explains why most farm and food policy discussions are over before they begin — there’s simply nothing to talk about because no one needs to know anything about farming and food to be elected. That lack of public discourse, however, has created a policy vacuum that Big Ag is very happy to fill. Today, more than ever before, just a handful of farm and commodity groups drive nearly all policy discussions at the local, state,

Q: You shared some interesting data on Argentina. Thanks to a new president who eliminated or greatly reduced export taxes on agricultural products, you suggest Argentina will now expand agricultural production. Baize: Their new government leader eliminated export taxes on wheat, corn, beef and sunflower seed which previously were in the 23 to 32 percent range. Plus they’ve cut the export tax on soybeans from 35 percent to 30 percent. The net effect is increased income opportunity for Argentina farmers. What’s likely is a probable doubling of corn and wheat plantings; maybe tripling sunflower plantings and perhaps a cutback in soybeans for the short term. That’s because thanks to a devaluation of their currency, about 500 million bushels of soybeans sitting in storage because growers couldn’t afford the export tax are now being dumped on the market. Q: You mentioned significant improvement in river travel for Brazil’s crops. Baize: They can now transport a thousand miles upriver from their ocean ports. They’ve also improved channels on certain rivers so they can do barge traffic another 600 miles inland. These all flow into the Amazon. So for example, at Santé Rim where Cargill has a major facility, they now have an inland port facility where the river is 12 miles wide I’m told and over 200 feet deep. Yet you are 800 miles from the ocean. It would be much like taking an ocean-going vessel up the Mississippi to Minneapolis. Q: Do you see the political climate in America in for a major overhaul after the November elections? Baize: We’re going to be seeing a rambunctious year in politics. That’s already underway. If for no See BAIZE, pg 6A
Simple not always our best solution GUEBERT, from pg. 3A clean water effort by any government or public interest group only invites more consumer anger and more costly court fights. In the end, farmers and ranchers will lose on every one of these issues because, as they well know, the “market” (consumers, voters, eaters) is always right. Until then, however, we’ll continue to believe our illegal immigration problem will be solved by building a wall which “they’ll pay for” and we’ll end today’s brutal terrorism by carpet bombing somewhere, maybe everywhere, until we find out “if sand can glow in the dark.” Sure, that’ll work.

New administration would have little impact on agriculture BAIZE, from pg. 4A other reason than Mr. Trump is going to get certain issues discussed that otherwise wouldn’t have been discussed. He is the absolute challenge to political correctness in the American scene. He’s made immigration an issue; he’s made Islamic migration a major concern; he’s made everyone aware of the need for a stronger, bigger wall across our southern border with Mexico. He’s rude, crude and liked! You have to admire how he handles the media. He’s quick and clever at manipulating the media into covering him because they think he’s ridiculous and that has simply gotten him even more coverage. The odds are the Republicans are going to win this election because we have a history in this country of going eight years before its time for a change in leadership from one party to another party. Q: Should that happen, will our
general population continue to be frustrated with the division within the ranks of Congress? Baize: Probably not. You will just have a different set of people upset with Congress. The Democrats right now are upset because the Republicans are in control, but they like the White House. Republicans don’t like the White House right now, and many don’t like the Congress because they think the Congress is too conservative. If you have a Republican in the White House and Republicans controlling both houses of Congress, we will get more things done but it predictably will alienate the Democratic side simply because they will not like a lot of what’s being done by this new Congress and President. If Donald Trump were to get elected, he may become the most popular President in quite some time because he has support from Independents, Republicans and 20 percent of the

– John Baize Democrats. Suffice to say it will be very interesting to see what happens. Q: Should that scenario happen, any likelihood of major changes to U.S. agricultural policy and farm bill? Baize: I think a new congress and administration would have little impact on agriculture. Agriculture has a huge amount of support regardless of who’s running the show. Uneducated though they may be about our agricultural industry, politicians tend to understand where their food comes from. The old story when I worked on Capitol Hill was, ‘Every state has two senators and at least one dairy cow.’ Agriculture will continue to have a disproportionate amount of power in Washington relative to its size and number of voters. Everyone knows we need a strong food supply, especially
its importance to national defense. Q: How serious is this farm equity situation? Baize: I think the next two to five years could be extremely difficult. We’ve got a high valued dollar which is pushing down commodity prices. We’ve got too much supply in the world with record crops in South America, near records in North America and as much or more soybeans being planted in 2016. Global recession is slowing down China, the biggest importer of agricultural products be that grains or livestock and poultry. Our products are likely going lower to meet world prices. Q: Yet thanks to technology and better genetics, productivity keeps increasing? Baize: Very definitely. You can’t slow See BAIZE, pg 9A

yields, I’m confident the world will continue to be well-fed. I’m 67 years old. In my lifetime, look at how much we have seen in growth of food supplies. We’re still seeing real growth of productivity — record soybean yields last year, record corn the year before. And there are other areas of the world that can come into production if prices are high enough, and governments permit private capital to go to work. ❖

Q: You travel the world, John. Has agricultural technology now expanded worldwide? Baize: American farmers still have a few advantages. New bio-technology coming out largely gets unwrapped first for us because we are first to get it approved. But after a year or so it starts showing up legally or illegally in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and elsewhere. We’ve an advantage over the Europeans because they simply don’t get it. British farmers are now suggesting they drop out of the European Union so they can start using bio-technology like the American farmers. They think Europe today is turning into an agricultural museum. European governments have shown enormous capability to continue stupid policies. I think at some point it will shift simply because if you can’t compete because of some people’s misplaced fears you won’t be viable. Then your leaders have performed an unforgiveable injustice to your ability to be a solvent
Minnesota farmland values decline 8 percent At the end of each year for the last 21 years, a survey has been conducted of farm land sales in fourteen southwestern Minnesota counties. The survey reports bare farm land sales to nonrelated parties for the first six months of each year. Land values had been steadily increasing until 2014. After reaching record high prices in 2013, the upward trend was broken as prices declined in 2014. This trend continued in 2015. This year the decline across the 14 counties averaged 8.3 percent. Average land values had not declined since 1996 when the average southwestern Minnesota land prices were $1,175 per

BAIZE, from pg 6A the technology appetite amongst not only U.S. farmers but farmers around the world. I think soybean yields will be increasing at a faster rate than corn because of the influx of many patented soybean varieties now into the market. Q: Your reading on the mood of farmers this year compared with previous years? Baize: I look out over the audience and I see a look of worry ... perhaps better described as ‘confidence worry’. The past three to four years they were elated. They were making more money than they ever envisioned, paying down debts and getting in great financial positions. But now they recognize that ‘the worm has turned’ and they’re having to hunker down to figure out how to cut their costs, reduce their outlays, maximize their profits — if any. But American agriculture is still the giant, still financially strong and capable. I can remember looking over farm audiences in the early 1980s. You didn’t see worry; you saw fear because they didn’t know if they could survive. And many of them didn’t. It was terrible. Land values falling like a brick. That won’t happen. Farmer’s debt-equity ratios are much better than in the past. Most don’t need and won’t be buying new equipment. Yields are so much better these days. However, ask me five years from now if things are going to get better and we may still be in much the same situation. If we see interest rates suddenly jacking up, farmers could get in a world of hurt real fast.

Higher populations not answer to higher yields By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer ARLINGTON, Minn. — Discussing high yield corn systems, Jeff Coulter, University of Minnesota Extension corn agronomist showed his audience surprising yield data comparing three planting rates — 30,000, 36,000 and 42,000 at research centers in Waseca, Lamberton and Rochester. The 36,000 rate was the “yield champ” in seven of the nine comparisons. There was also no yield increase with more than 30,000 seeds per acre in five of the 12 environments. Studies were done in 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015 at all three locations. Coulter presented his findings at the 2016 Winter Crops Days from the University of Minnesota Southern Research and Outreach Center and the U of M Extension on Jan. 14, in Arlington. Coulter also showed comparisons on two rates of nitrogen applications, 155 pounds per acre vs. 200 pounds per acre on 36,000 and 42,000 populations. At Waseca, the 155 pound rate at 32,000 population showed a better net return three of the four years. At Lamberton, net return per acre at 42,000 population was a mixed bag; two years favored the 155 pound rate, two years showed the 200 pound rate slightly better. At Rochester, net returns per acre favored the 155
pound N application three of the four years. “We’re seeing little value in going to the 42K rate and the higher 200 pound nitrogen application. Looking at these studies at these three different locations, each with different soils, it’s probably safe to say that weather in any given location, every year is still the key driver in yields,” said Coulter. Yields over this three-year study ranged from 220 bushels per acre and better at all three locations in 2015 with Lamberton data the highest, but lows in the 160 bu./acre category in 2013, also at Lamberton. Coulter’s take home points were: • Increases in corn yield and net return are limited in frequency and magnitude with above-normal planting rates and uses of other inputs; • Weather can have a much larger impact on yield than agronomic inputs and it greatly influences optimum N management; • Have a Plan B and Plan C in case the weather causes challenges. Coulter cautioned that because of stagnant world markets, too much world production and the strong U.S. dollar, it looks like a tough year ahead for profitable crop production. In view of this challenging outlook, he suggested producers and crop consultants must also be economists with strict attention to details.
Coulter recommended controlling costs without impacting yield and conducting simple on-farm tests to evaluate your inputs. He advised being timely in planting, fertilizer application, pest control and harvesting. Coulter also reminded producers not to overlook the basics of crop rotation, hybrid selection, stand establishment and weed control. Coulter pointed out that in 2015 Minnesota-National Corn Growers Association Corn Yield trials 10 of the 15 winners were in southeast Minnesota; three were in south central Minnesota. And the winning maturity in each was 103-105 days. Warmer temperatures, more favorable soil types and better rainfall distribution were contributing factors he indicated. But a 40-bushel spread between the top and bottom yields suggested hybrid selection is critical. Nitrogen U of M Extension researcher Jeff Vetsch discussed variable rates of nitrogen applications for corn. Due to growing concerns about leaching potentials of fall applications of anhydrous ammonia, Vetsch, Extension educators Brad Carlson and Ryan Miller tested N plus preplant and sidedress treatments, applied in combination in fall and spring. “There is considerable interest in using sidedress N to fine tune current N recommendations.

tice is applying 60-75 percent of N prior to planting and then sidedress remaining N,” Vetsch said. In these plots, sidedress N was applied as urea plus NBPT at V6-8 growth stage. NBPT reduces the risk of ammonia loss. They also studied the effects of time of N application and Dow Agro Sciences Instinct nitrogen stabilizer on corn production and nitrate losses from tile drainage. Vetsch shared this summary: • A split application of N (fixed or variable) increased corn yields at three of four sites when compared to a single preplant rate; • Only one of three sites showed a yield increase large enough to give a return on investment; • Yields with fall application of urea were much less than spring urea in one of four years; similar in two of four years (2012 and 2014) and slightly greater in only one year (2015 with an 8 bushel advantage); • Adding Instinct to fall-applied urea increased yield and reduced NO3 concentration and loss in tile drainage water only in 2013; • Fall-applied urea had 38 percent greater NO3 loss in tile drainage water than did spring applied urea, when averaged across 2013-2015. Vetsch noted, “Climatic conditions can and do greatly drive results.” ❖

The Branch operation and family farm is not certified organic, but they use organic practices. Growing Eric says this single structure has been big enough for their local markets plus they also plant some vegetables outside — beets, carrots, lettuce and more. Inside the tunnel they grow produce that generates a bit more revenue. That would be tomatoes which flourish from the good sunlight and hot weather. The tunnel offers a longer season — an earlier start and a longer fall season before cold weather shuts down production under the high tunnel. They deliver their products to the Alexandria Farmers’ Market and sell directly from their farm. They also do cut flowers, peppers, and slicing cucumbers with customers mostly driving to their farm for purchases.

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer You’re seeing a few more of these strange structures dotting the Minnesota landscape. Hoop barns is the farm slang for them, but organic farmers call them high tunnel greenhouses. For Eric Branch and his twin brother, Carl Branch, their 24 by 96 foot high tunnel is generating enough income to finance their first year of college at the University of Minnesota, Saint Paul. Eric is working on a plant breeding degree and Carl on plant biology. And these brothers are getting hands-on experience in their high tunnel produce and flower business at their farm Berry Ridge Farm, near Alexandria, Minn. “We started in 2006. My dad had done some high tunnel farming earlier and he now has several structures. We got a loan from the FSA (Farm Service Agency) Youth Loan program. We built our unit and have now had 10 years of production,” said Eric. Their structure started with a kit providing pre-fabricated hoops. The plastic vinyl covering was sourced locally. Getting it all together and ready for organic production was a

The advantage of tomatoes and peppers is that we can have them ready for harvest before local gardeners have them from their own gardens. — Eric Branch peppers until the end of our tomatoes harvest.” The biggest revenue generator for the Branch brothers is the tomato crop. “The advantage of tomatoes and peppers is that we can have them ready for harvest before local gardeners have them from their own gardens,” said Eric. “The demand is very high at the front end. And word seems to quickly get around that both tomatoes and peppers are available at the Branch farm.” Maintenance Drip line irrigation takes care of the moisture needs under the tunnel. Once you get the drip lines in place, it’s a labor-free operation without having to carry water hose, sprinklers, and such. But they do replenish their rooting materials. “Each fall and spring we haul in compost from collections of other plant materials,” said Eric. “Plus crop rotations are important to minimize any fungus or other insect-soil related disease issues.” They’ll do three or four years of tomatoes in the same seed bed before switching tomatoes to the other side of the structure. Peppers and cut flowers then grow where tomatoes did the previous season. Roof life on the high tunnel is every four or five years, explained Eric. Sun and wind are the destructive elements. They typically use a 7-mil polyethylene film stretched over the hoops. Rows are laid out to provide access to both sides of their plants. Future in farming Revenue wise, Eric said that for a high schooler their project has been very good money. “But looking down the road, even to pay my college education, there has to be more revenue so expanding what we are already doing is likely,” he said. Their dad has three tunnels along with extensive outdoor gardening at the family farm. Two more tunnels are in the works for the 2016 season. Total acres of fruits and vegetables at Berry Ridge Farm are about 7 acres, which includes a pick-your-own blueberry plot. Eric was interviewed at the Minnesota Organic Conference on Jan. 8 in St. Cloud. For Eric, the event was a great learning experience and he said he was pleased to see so many young people there. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the average age of a farmer today is 57. “They say the average age of farmers keeps getting older; but check the people at this conference and it looks to me like good things in the future,” said Eric. ❖

By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer Scott Ausborn, with 10 years at Blue River Hybrids and currently its business development manager, has a full bucket of information about the performance of the Blue River’s organic seeds. Ausborn, an Iowa State University graduate, appreciates working in his college town of Ames. Representing non-genetically modified organisms and an organic seed lineup, he’s open about the growing interest in their seed products, especially in view of the crunch time now underway in agricultural commodities, be that seed or livestock. “Because Blue River focuses mostly on the certified organic seed products and non-GMO hybrids, over the 10 years that Blue River has been into the market we’ve seen exponential growth,” said Ausborn. A national company, Blue River sells products from California to New York, Texas to Canada. Blue River has experienced accelerated growth the past two years when corn prices got squeezed down from $7 to current $3.50 prices. “Producers are looking for alternative ways to reduce their production expenses. The lower cost of non-GMO products is an obvious choice for many,” said Ausborn. Retail price to farmers today for Blue River organic hybrids is in the $200-$220 range. And retail price for farmers growing and marketing organic corn is in the $9-$10 per bushel category he indicated. Considerable savings at the front end on seed costs and a doubling of value when you market your organic corn to market are key drivers of this expanding organic industry. Ausborn noted that because of the rapid growth of See ORGANIC SEED, pg. 15A

Pipestone farmer has history with organic farming By DICK HAGEN The Land Staff Writer $8 corn for 2016? Yes, if it’s organic! Does $16 corn or $7 oats get your attention? Donald DeWeerd, of Pipestone, Minn., was just sharing some marketing history of his organic crops in 2012-2014. The Land interviewed DeWeerd at the In a brief interview at the Minnesota Organic Conference, Jan. 8-9 in St. Cloud, Minn. DeWeerd has been into organic farming for about 30 years with everything previously fed to his dairy cows. But when he sold the cow herd in 2001, he needed new markets for his organic crops. That meant certified production to get certified markets. His entrance to certified organic farming dates back to 1998, gradually working his entire 200-acre operation into certified organic production. He has tried a variety of different crops along the way. “Corn is my primary crop. But we do soybeans, wheat, oats, some peas, and some rye. And a good feature of certified organic crop production is that there seem to be more buyers each year,” said DeWeerd. Currently, DeWeerd projects $8-$9 prices for his organic corn. “But my high point was $16 for corn a couple years ago; about $12 on wheat,” he said. “With oats we’ve been running anywhere from $5.50 to as high as $7.” Yields are the key determination of gross revenue per acre. And organic crop production generally takes a hit due to weeds and no herbicides. Even so, oats have been good. DeWeerd said around 65bushel yields on oats the last two years but four years prior his oats were doing well over 100-bushel

yields, with 110 bu./acre for two sucessive years. “Just good oat years in terms of weather, humidity, and moisture,” said DeWeerd. “This year we had the right amount of moisture but humidity stayed too high. Oats are a cool-season crop.” Seeds With the entire farm certified, DeWeerd does some shopping for seed sources. At the St.Cloud event, eight different seed houses were selling seed to the over 620 organic producers in attendance. “For a number of years I used a seed firm out of Illinois but they were mostly longer maturity hybrids; not the best fit for our Pipestone area,” he said. Before he went organic, he was using the Jung Seed Company out of Wisconsin which was handling Blue River seeds.

“So I started organic with Blue River, then changed for a few years,” he said. “Two years ago I checked their seed catalog and noticed some of the same hybrid numbers when I was originally with them so I went back to Blue River brand.” DeWeerd’s corn yield was 120 bu./acre. He acknowledges that’s a modest yield because the nonGMO organic hybrids don’t have the gene traits and without herbicides weeds are usually cutting some yields. Cultivation is his weed control. “My 120-bushel yields aren’t so good but that $9 price covers all my expenses with a little margin still available,” he said. For 2016 he’ll repeat his 2015 cropping program of 60 acres of corn, 40-50 acres of oats, 20-30 acres of peas, 25-30 acres of soybeans and 30 acres of rye. He doesn’t seek out advance contracts from buyers. “I wait until everything is harvested and in the bins,” he said. “Then I get on the phone and start calling prospective buyers. I’ll usually have a variety of different buyers each year because that’s just the nature of these markets. There’s getting to be more buyers each year it seems.” Cover crops DeWeerd sees value in cover crops in organic farming. “We’ve been doing cover crops since 1971. We’ve always used red clover and the past few years we’ve tried some winter rye and radish, usually seeded after my soybeans,” DeWeerd said. “I’ve seeded rye as late as the second of November. It didn’t come up in the fall but it did in the spring. We worked it down and planted soybeans in that field.” DeWeerd said he thinks it’s important to keep something green on your soils. “To me that means keeping your soil healthy so there is microorganism nutrient value. Cover crops just help build soil health,” he said. “They provide good protection against wind erosion. We get some brisk winter winds around here that can scour our soil surface quite aggressively some times.” Cover crops can: • Scavenge nutrients to reduce fertilizer inputs. Rye and most cereal grains are good at taking up nitrogen left after the primary crop and holding it until worked back into the soil in the spring. • Fix nitrogen to reduce fertilizer inputs. Very few plants are capable of creating their own nitrogen. Legumes do this however. Clovers, alfalfa, trefoil, and vetch are legumes and potential cover crops. • Reduce erosion. Cover crops are an ideal way to prevent water and wind erosion in between row crops. A solid seeded cover crop can decrease runoff, increase water retention and reduce nutrient loss. Choosing cover crops is based on your crop rotation, location, desired benefits and harvest schedule. The Midwest Cover Crop Council can be a valuable resource. The website includes Cover Crop Decision Tools and lists of cover crop species for Midwestern states. Visit www.mccc.msu.edu.

Strong U.S. dollar makes U.S. grains a tough sell the time being,” he said. “Biggest factor going forward I think will be our U.S. dollar index which is being inflated slightly by the rest of the world economies which are just flat out struggling.” Bratland said other countries are investing in the United States which inflates our dollar. That stronger U.S. dollar is making us uncompetitive in world markets. In addition, he noted that we have burdensome supplies from back-to-back years of record production. “The pipeline is full. Exports of our agricultural products are down,” Bratland said. “Going forward, I think weather will have to be an issue. I’m talking severe weather that jeopardizes either the South American crop or the North American crop before we see an upward trend in these markets.” In 2015, corn production at 1.43 bil-
lion bushels was 4 percent more than the previous state records set in 2012. Minnesota farmers averaged 188 bushels per acre, 11 bushels above the previous record set in 2010. Soybean production was 378 million bushels, up 25 percent from 2014. Yields averaged 50 bu./acre, the highest ever and five bushels more than the previous record set in 2010. This record production across the Midwest prompted Michael Swanson, Wells Fargo chief agricultural economist to report, “Currently, the 2016 Chicago Mercantile Exchange futures don’t offer any relief for producers who require higher prices to cash flow.” But this glut on pricing may have an optimistic ring. Bratland predicts that market lows are already in and a year or so of consolidation of numbers is ahead for the industry.
Forward pricing contracts aren’t happening yet in this new marketing year. With prices being squeezed downward for several months now, farmers have turned gun-shy of contracts. “But get a little rally this spring and I think guys will be more apt to get into some forward pricing. We know we can produce these bushels,” he said. “Productivity is no longer an issue because the genetics farmers are working with these days are so phenomenal.” Bratland lives and advises Kluis private clients through his business Prairie Ag Marketing in Willow Lake, S.D. “It is amazing the yields we now get in our area. 170-bushel, 180-bushel See BRATLAND, pg. 18A

BRATLAND, from pg. 17A corn is almost the norm these days.” With little or no profit penciling out for 2016, some of the marginal ground may be going back to the Conservation Reserve Program, said Bratland. “Lots of those contracts expired and haven’t been renewed because cash rents got so strong. But that’s changing. Cash rents have come down somewhat but there needs to be a bigger adjustment,” he said. “Sure, landowners hate to see some of their income disappear. But if lower rental rates don’t happen, we’ll be seeing tenants getting squeezed out and then land owners will be facing the reality of new tenants constantly.” Bratland said operating loans are getting tight with lots of nervous bankers in the ag lending business. “For us, this squeeze becomes a business plus. In years of low prices and tight margins, especially when they sink below break-even on cost of production, growers come to us seeking assistance,” he said. So why the boost for commodity brokers in tough times? “They need all the help they can get,” said Bratland. “Anybody can sell $6 and $7 corn; $10 and $12 beans; but when the crunch is on, it becomes such an emotionally difficult time to make the sale.

ice is sitting down with our customers and in detail reviewing their farming budgets; then working with them to do a marketing plan. We are incremental sellers; generally no more than 10 percent of your total crop at any one time. “But we also have a history rich in charts thanks to Al Kluis, an acknowledged expert on reading and interpreting what charts are telling us. For example, soybean markets tend to move in 39-month cycles. We’re close to the bottom right now based on chart history.” Weather Bratland speculates if La Niña does set up this spring, it could be a wild ride for soybeans come August. Soybean production has exploded in South America, he said. Currently South America produces 50 percent more soybeans than the United States. And the export tax on Argentina soybeans has been reduced from 35 percent to 30 percent; soy meal and soy oil export taxes reduced from 32 percent to 27 percent with the incentive of a 5 percent reduction per year for the hereafter. Argentina is a major competitor, especially to the China market. Bratland notes some caution about U.S. weather forecasts for this spring. The weather speaker at the Linder meeting predicted a strong possibility of a colder and wetter spring in the Midwest. “We’ve been watching weather models for the past 30 days and will continue to study them for the next 60-90 days,” said Bratland. “There is a legitimate concern about La Niña setting up for this late winter-early spring. The last time we had a La Niña effect was 2012 and we ended up with something like a 123 bushel national corn yield. Such a disruption in 2016 would indeed impact commodity prices strongly.” Non-GMO crops Organic crops aren’t making an impact on commmodity markets, said Bratland. “The market premium is for real,” said Bratland, “but at this stage organics are such a small total that commodity pricing isn’t affected.” Bratland said he thinks the United States needs to get more aggressive in promoting our corn exports as we’ve already done a good job with soybean exports. “If or when this world economy starts stabilizing it will be positive for U.S. agriculture simply because we continue to be the world’s number one producer; our quality is the world’s best; and we can deliver to wherever the products are needed,” said Bratland. “That’s happening with U.S. soybeans. Foreign countries trying to better feed their people have learned that with soybeans they can meet the protein needs of their people with a third as many bushels.” He acknowledges the non-GMO issue will continue to prevent U.S. exports into several countries. But he also recognizes the tremendous impact of today’s genetics on productivity. “If we were still struggling with 120-130 bushel yields I couldn’t imagine what grain prices would be right now. And how little grain we would have to feed into the world food chain,” said Bratland. Follow Cory Bratland on Twitter @thegrainguy. ❖
Take on life’s troubles with help from an Ebenezer stone Another Ebenezer that is a physical reminder of God’s spiritual truths are journals. When you write down the awesome things that God is doing in your life, it’s like setting up an Ebenezer stone and saying, “This is how God has helped me!” When you are weary, tired, or sad, you can reread your journal and be encouraged. And in years to come it will encourage your kids, your friends, and your community, too. Ebenezer memory rocks can be journals, a ragtag bunny, a shadow box filled with treasures, a favorite toy, or even a rock. It’s anything that helps you remember God’s faithfulness in the past, which in turn gives hope for the future. So what’s your Ebenezer? I may just throw a toy at Elizabeth’s forehead to remind her of hers. But stop and think about you. Whether you believe it or not, God is with you and watching over you. Trust Him. When you trust Him with your life, write it down. This Ebenezer will change everything for you and all those who read your life and your words. “This is who God is and how He helped me.” Lenae Bulthuis muses about faith, family, and farming from her back porch on her Minnesota grain and livestock farm.

reminder of what is in our lives. This is our reality. And for those who trust in God that visible, physical reminder is hope! Yes, things may look dark for your future, but in Jesus there is light. Yes, it seems as if there is no way out of this mess, but in Jesus you have the Way, the Truth, and the Life — the real and abundant kind! There’s an old hymn, “Come, thou Fount of Every Blessing”, that you may have sung or heard your grandparents sing. It’s a good song, but let’s be real. What in the world is an Ebenezer? Ebenezer means “stone of help.” In the first half of the Bible known as the Old Testament, it was a stone. Basically it was a memory rock that helped people remember that God helped them in the past and He would be there for them in the future as well. Did you know that people still use Ebenezer reminders today? I read about one lady who keeps an old suitcase by her front door to remind her that this world is not her home; she’s going to live with Jesus in heaven one day. I have a stuffed bunny near my computer where I write. It’s over 30 years old and looks ratty and worn. My dad gave it to me when I was 5 years old and very sick in the hospital. During my nine-day hospitalization that bunny stayed by my side. Today that bunny is an Ebenezer, daily reminding me of my dad’s love and my Heavenly Father’s healing.

She’s only 14-months old. And as our daughter Elizabeth told the story of her baby girl, I wish I had recorded when we first recognized how Elizabeth was wired. Elizabeth said that she was bent low as she tossed toys into the box when she accidentally nailed Reagan in the forehead. THE BACK PORCH ”Sorry, Reagers,” she said. Regan didn’t respond. Beth By Lenae Bulthuis kept picking up and never saw it coming. Her 14-month old walked up to her and threw one of the stray toys at her head. As the story concluded, I thought Elizabeth’s sisters were going to lose it. In front of our fireplace their hearts warmed at the thought of Elizabeth dealing with what she had dealt them over the years. And as Elizabeth recognized her self in the story, they laughed and squealed, “Write this down! You have to write this down!” If only I had done the same. Over the years cute stories about our girls were retold a time or two, but I rarely put them to paper. Just keeping up with toddler life was about all I managed at the time. And now I wish I had done what we tell Elizabeth. Write it down. It’s not just the old, over-stressed, and over-committed who suffer memory loss. We all do! Here’s the thing – remembering matters. It matters for us and for those who follow in our steps. And as sweet as it is to remember the memorable quips and accounts from the past, there is something deeper that takes place for those who trust God with their very lives. When we write things down it is a visible, physical

Love-in-a-mist might be a flower garden must Gardening in the winter is a time for dreaming about new plants and old standbys the seed catalogs are offering. The glorious colors and enticing descriptions of the plants are nearly irresistible. It’s a time to dog-ear the pages, make lists and notes IN THE GARDEN and finally narrow the order from “Wouldn’t it be fun to By Sharon Quale grow, to ... these are in my growing zone and fit in my budget.” Nigella Damascena, commonly called love-in-a-mist is a fascinating annual which we started growing a number of years ago from seed ordered through a catalog. It earns its common name because the foliage, which is ferny and looks like fennel, forms a mist around the flowers. The blooms come in blue, white and shades of purple. Blue is our prominent color because it is rarer. well-drained soil. Mature plant size is about 15 inches Love-in-a-mist belongs to the butterhigh and it blooms from late spring cup family Ranunculaceae and is through early fall. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and likes a moist native to southern Europe, North Africa and southwest Asia.

of Nigella (cumin) and wheat is contrasted. Nigella flowers are fluffy and the seed pods that develop are intriguing with their tan color and purple side stripes. The seed pods can be dried and used in arrangements. Cut the stems while the pods are still green and fresh and tie the stems in bundles and hang upside down to dry. The seed pods can be cut in half to show off the starshaped seed chamber. These dainty annuals self-seed readily and if left over the winter without deadheading will produce a wave of volunteer plants. They are easy to control by weeding and hoeing out excess plants. They have tap roots like a carrot and transplanting is best done when the plants are very small.

By SARAH JOHNSON The Land Correspondent Did you know it takes 80,000 American pork-producing families to keep us bacon-lovers happy? Blessings upon the pork farmers, because without them we’d be missing all those wonderful sausages, chops, loins, roasts and hams. Pork is the most widely eaten meat in the world. The National Pork Board certainly knows all this, and periodically issues booklets of recipes to encourage us to keep on eating it and perhaps try something new. Here are some pork recipe suggestions that are easy on time as well as on the budget from the “Farm Table to Family Table” 2003 booklet by the National Pork Board. ■ When the weather outside is frightful, a bowl of hot soup is sooooo delightful. The comforting flavors, smells and textures of homemade soup are always worth the little trouble they are to prepare, like Bow Tie Sausage Soup.

t’s possible that cold weather makes for vibrant rural communities. Embarrass Township, in St. Louis County, Minnesota, may be an example of that cold weather-warm community phenomena. Lying in Minnesota’s North Woods with the Embarrass River flowing through it, this place is very rural. And it is notorious for intense cold. Twenty years ago, on Feb. 2, 1996, Rowland Fowler walked out of his house in the woods along County Road 21 and over to the little white box in the park in front of the Credit Union. The thermometer read -64 F. That is the lowest of all temperatures recorded in what locals humbly call The Cold Spot. Fowler has recorded other tree splitting temperatures. It was -54 F on Jan. 7, 2005. On Jan. 24, 2013, the thermometer fell to -42 F. Embarrass responds to these temperatures with Finnish conversation gettogethers at the town hall in the winter and at the Nelimark Homestead Museum in the summer. The conversation gatherings are held Thursday afternoons. The exercise group meets after that. The exercise group also meets on Tuesday afternoon and the Ladies Coffee group meets Tuesday morning. “The coffee group is one of our most popular groups,” Diane Nelmark, the township clerk, said. “I think more people use the town hall because it’s open and I’m here four days a week.” There are also meetings of the 4-H club, the town board, the Embarrass Regional Fair Board, the Fair Board’s monthly pancake supper, and the Sisu Heritage cultural organization. Sisu Heritage sponsors the conversation gatherings, operates the Nelimark Homestead Museum, and runs summer tours of the restored Nelimark and Pyhala Finnish homesteads. They are also restoring the Seitaniemi house-barn homestead. The Fair Board has been holding a regional summer fair for three quarters of a century. The 2015 fair, at the Embarrass Timber Lodge, featured a horse show, livestock exposition, craft displays and sales, food vendors, and a demolition derby among other things. The township itself doesn’t sponsor many events. They focus on providing a warm community space for gatherings. “The only event we do,” says Nelmark, “is the Ice Candle and Holiday Gathering.” This year volunteers made 600 candles. On Dec. 19, 2015, they placed them in the cemetery before dusk. The cemetery glowed with soft light as night fell and the community quietly passed through the resting place of their ancestors. Afterwards, they gathered at the town hall to celebrate. “It was hard this December,” Nelmark said. “It was so warm, 200 of the candles melted.” Visit www.embarrass.org for visitor’s information. ❖

Livestock Angles Erratic swings in cattle price
Grain Angles Balance sheet rebalancing
Here we go again, another several weeks of erratic swings in the livestock markets. This is particularly true in the cattle market; hogs have remained relatively quiet with steady price improvement unlike the rapidly changing cattle. The main reason for the instability in the cattle market is the continuation of the battle between supply and demand. For weeks this battle has gone on and there currently does not seem to be an immediate change in this battle. There is a real conundrum with the fundamentals of the cattle market. There is a smaller JOE TEALE supply of cattle as reported by the Broker U.S. Department of Agriculture as Great Plains Commodity evidenced in the latest Cattle on Afton, Minn. Feed report released Jan. 22. The USDA projected that there were just slightly fewer cattle on feed as compared to a year ago, as well as cattle placed in feedlots. The report also indicated there were more cattle marketed than the previous year. This report continues to reflect lower numbers than a year ago. At the same time the USDA released the Cold Storage report which indicated we once again have more beef in storage than a year ago. It also reflects, for more than six months in a row, beef in cold storage was continually greater than the previous month. Thus the battle between supply and demand continues. Overall, for the past several months, the lack of demand for beef, not the supply of cattle, has dictated the direction of cattle prices. This is not likely to change much in the weeks ahead until the disparity
Now’s the time when producers throughout the Midwest are providing their lenders 2015 year-end balance sheets for review of their operations and for discussing future financing opportunities. The sample size I’ve seen so far is small, but overall it appears some producers took a step back in net worth and in liquidity (working capital position) even though we had outstanding yields throughout most of Minnesota and Wisconsin. One of the primary reasons for balance sheet deterioration is lowered grain inventory values from a year ago of approximately $.60 per bushel on corn and $2 JOEL LARSON AgStar Financial Services per bushel on soybeans. With Credit Director unpriced grain valued around Blue Earth, Minn. $3.25 per bushel for corn and $8.10 per bushel (at year-end in southern Minnesota) this adds up to some real accrual losses over all your bushels and some significant reduction in working capital position. (Working capital = current assets - current liabilities which can be converted to cash within 12 months). A review of AgStar’s projected Margin Manager for 2016 corn and soybeans is showing estimated non-land costs of around $550 per acre for corn and $300 per acre for soybeans. This would include all inputs, insurance, fuel, repairs, labor, interest, and depreciation (everything except land cost and family living expense). Add your land costs (both owned and rented), ex. $225/acre + $50/acre for family living (operator draw) and you are at $825/acre for corn and $575/acre for soybeans. In a 50-50 rotation

The following market analysis is for the week ending Jan. 22. CORN — Corn started the week off on a strong note with big fund short covering and a gap-and-gohigher move when trading resumed after the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. The quick jump higher was also instigated by a rally in global equity markets in post-holiday trade. The balance of the holiday-shortened week saw prices move sideways higher. This helped rally corn during the week to its highest level since before Christmas. China’s economy in the fourth PHYLLIS NYSTROM CHS Hedging Inc. quarter 2015 grew at 6.8 percent, St. Paul which was in line with expectations, but still the slowest growth since 1990. Their growth for all of 2015 was 6.9 percent, the slowest in 25 years. South America’s weather proved to be a non-event and no new red flags were raised. Michael Cordonnier, owner of Soybean and Corn Advisor, upped his Argentine corn production estimate by 2 million metric tons to 23.6 mmt (U.S. Department of Agriculture 25.6 mmt), and left Brazil’s forecast at 81.2 mmt (USDA 81.5 mmt). There has been some chatter in the market that, due to a 40-day corn export line up in Brazil, we may see some corn business switched to the United States. If that would occur, and it’s a big if, it wouldn’t likely happen until March at the earliest. Informa Economics’ updated their acreage outlook for 2016 to 88.869 million acres, essentially the same as their December estimate and compared to

Working capital key in 2016
Live hog prices increase TEALE, from pg. 1B in price between beef to pork, chicken and turkey changes. Producers should continually monitor market conditions and protect inventories as needed. The hog market has gradually improved over the past several weeks due to continued demand for pork. Packer margins have been good and therefore the interest by the packer to accumulate inventory has been good. Numbers have not been overbearing at this juncture, so the prices paid for live animals has steadily increased over the past several weeks. The demand for pork has been very
good as it represents the likely best value to the consumer at this time. Even though export business has been slowed by the strong U.S. dollar, the better domestic interest in pork is represented by the steady to slightly climbing pork cutout values. Overall, this would indicate the possibility of hog prices moving a bit higher in the short term. The problem would be that the demand for protein is highly competitive and with the economy on shaky ground at this time, rallies may be muted. Producers should keep an eye on market conditions and protect inventories when warranted. ❖

estate as collateral and the equity you’ve built in long term assets. Although, this does not remove your debt, it could improve your cash flow while also rebuilding working capital. Again, this is a strategy to give you more time to get your cost structure in line with decreased crop prices. If you select this strategy, be sure to consider how it impacts your overall land costs. • Consolidate debt. In our present (attractive) interest rate environment, it might be a good strategy to consider consolidating multiple loans into one and stretching them out to improve cash flow and current debt requirements while also locking in a good fixed interest rate. Having fewer loans can also simplify your repayment schedule. Always consider matching payment dates to your income stream. (Exmaple: When do you deliver your grain?) • Sell off nonproductive assets. Are there assets on your balance sheet that are no longer needed and, if sold, the proceeds could be used to build working capital or pay down debt? Start with reviewing your detailed balance sheet. Make a priority listing of assets that are no longer necessary or don’t fit into your future plans. Consult your tax advisor on the impact this may have on your income tax management. Now is an excellent time to meet with your lender to discuss your balance sheet structure and projection including a per acre projection (margin manager) and review if you have enough working capital.

Grains Exchange projected Argentine soybean production at 58 mmt. Informa Economics’ refreshed 2016 U.S. planted soybean acreage prediction was 85.22 million acres compared to their 84.5 million acre estimate made in December. The USDA’s baseline forecast was 82 million acres and in 2015 U.S. farmers planted 82.65 million acres. Informa’s estimated 2016 bean production is 3.9 billion bushels using a yield of 46.7 bu./acre. In 2015, U.S. growers produced 3.93 billion bushels and the yield was 48.0 bu./acre. Informa’s ending stocks number for 2016-17 are projected at the third largest on record at 534 million bushels compared to the USDA’s 2015-16 ending stocks of 440 million bushels. Weekly export sales were within estimates at 36.2 million bushels. The USDA also revised last week’s export sales lower by 2.8 million bushels. We are running 9.2 percent behind last year’s pace and the USDA is projecting year-on-year exports to be down 8.3 percent. We’ll need to average 7.7 million bushels per week to reach the USDA forecast for 1.69 billion bushels of yearly exports. China is forecasting their soybean imports this year to reach a record 85 million tons, up 9 percent from last year. This is higher than the USDA estimate for 80.5 mmt. China has so far this year bought 24.9 mmt from the U.S. compared to 27.8 mmt at this time last year. OUTLOOK: Soybeans were unable to gather any upside momentum this week with a huge South American crop just around the corner. Possible fund short covering into month end may inspire some strength but overall further consolidation may be the flavor of the day. ❖

LARSON, from 1B of corn and soybeans this is an average of $700 per acre to put in 2016’s crop. A combination of your own working capital and borrowed money (operating loans) are needed to meet your cash needs in putting in a crop. Assuming you can borrow about $450 per acre for operating (dependent on collateral such as your crop insurance guarantee) leaves a producer’s share to put the crop in of approximately $250 per acre of working capital ($700 per acre average corn-soybean costs less $450 per acre operating). Therefore, the minimum amount of working capital a grain producer needs is right about $250 per acre. As you likely heard throughout 2015, one of the keys to helping get your own individual plan together is having adequate working capital in your business — not only for putting in this year’s crop, but to cover for the next few years of lower prices, compressed margins or even losses. How is your individual balance sheet structured? Is it appropriate for the times we are in and for the size and age of your operation? It’s possible your balance sheet may need to be rebalanced so you are positioned with enough working capital to meet your needs. The following strategies can help. • Move current debt (possibly from your operating loan) to an intermediate term loan amortized at five or seven years. This is a popular strategy for clients who paid cash for capital purchases, like equipment or tile, in recent years and now need to replenish that cash and rebuild working capital. If, in the next few years, you are able to capture better prices or you can get your costs reduced to profitable levels, paying off debt early is another consideration. • Move current debt or intermediate term debt to a longer term, using real
stocks at 21.94 million barrels were up 595,000 bpd for the week. Weekly corn exports were the second highest of the marketing year at 45.6 million bushels. We need to average 27 million bushels of sales per week to hit the USDA projection of 1.7 billion bushels of exports. Corn sales are 27 percent behind last year when the USDA is estimating year-on-year exports to be down 8.8 percent. New sales of 110.5 thousand metric tons of U.S. corn to unknown and 243.1 tmt to Mexico were reported by the USDA during their daily announcements. With strong cash markets in South America, U.S. corn is competitive on the global scene into February. Brazil’s Ag Minister reported this week they will auction off 500,000 tons of corn from public stocks to battle high domestic prices that have surged higher due to the large exports and is causing problems in their livestock markets. Their corn exports during November and December were over 11 mmt, more than double the exports a year ago during the same time frame. The outlook for January’s numbers are expected to be record high. SOYBEANS — Soybeans moved in consolidation mode this week when the Jan. 19 rally couldn’t be extended. Cordonnier kept his Brazilian soybean production outlook at 97 mmt compared to USDA’s 100 mmt, but raised his Argentine estimate from 58 mmt to 59 mmt versus USDA’s 57 mmt. AgroConsult cut its production estimate for Brazil from 100.6 mmt to 99.2 mmt. AgRural pegged 48 percent of this year’s Brazilian bean crop has been sold by farmers as of Jan. 1, higher than the 31 percent sold the previous year. The Buenos Aires

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange announced Jan. 19 that spot traded butter will no longer have to be graded AA beginning Feb. 1. pounds and was 3.4 percent lower than November 2014. Meanwhile, HighGround Dairy reports that “Europe continued to produce aggressive milk flows into November with early data from the Netherlands also showing heavy milk production in December. The 28 member states saw 5 percent year-over-year growth rate in November while the Netherlands reported a whopping plus 16.6 percent gain year over year in December.” ■ Back home, cash Cheddar block cheese closed the Martin Luther King Day holiday-shortened week at $1.46 per pound, down 3.5 cents on the week and 2 cents below a year ago, while traders anticipated Friday afternoon’s December Milk Production and Cold Storage reports. The Cheddar barrels closed at $1.43, down 9.5 cents on the week and 1.5 cents below a year ago. Only three cars of block traded hands on the week at the CME and eight of barrel. Dairy Market News reported this week’s snow storm “expected to move up the coast and add to the region’s current wintery conditions. It will likely force a solid run on milk at retail outlets. The region, in general, is seeing robust demand from bottling facilities, as retail sales are strong.” But Midwest cheese makers indicate a slowdown in commercial cheese sales, according to DMN. “Although demand is lighter, domestic consumer requests for retail cheese packages, deli and food service are still relatively strong. Milk supplies are readily available and cheese production is active. Cheese inventories are building, which is typical for early First Quarter, and most cheese makers are not very concerned about rising inventories.” Readily available milk is pushing Western cheese output. Although the overall market tone suggests weakness, some manufacturers are encouraged. With export opportunities being limited last year, cheese makers have
relied on strong domestic consumer demand to help support the market. Retail demand remains good and appears to be holding up for Super Bowl buying. A few manufacturers have seen small increases in cheese export activity and demand for cheese barrels. These processors are hoping this is a sign of improvements to come. Cheese supplies are exceeding demand and adding to already long inventories though some growth is expected at this time of year, but processors are watching the market closely to manage stocks, according to DMN. ■ Cash butter, after plunging 11.75 cents Jan. 19, regained three-quarters Thursday and 3 cents Friday, to finish at $2.17 per pound, down 8 cents on the week but 62 cents above a year ago. Eight cars sold on the week at the CME. The CME announced Jan. 19 that spot traded butter will no longer have to be graded AA beginning Feb. 1. FC Stone’s Dave Kurzawski says “The removal of the grading requirements has the potential to impact the quantities of product brought to the exchange and possibly work to quell the rampant bullish sentiment in the marketplace.” Speaking in Friday’s DairyLine, Kurzawski said most of the butter traded in the United States is not necessarily Grade AA but would probably fit that description. He said, “Only a small percentage of the butter that fits the 80 percent (fat), salted Grade AA category is traded in the country and a larger part of that is actually not graded.” The idea here is more butter could come to the exchange, he said, and the market reacted to that Jan. 19. Kurzawski called the U.S. the “black sheep of the fat world,” due to the fact that U.S. butter is only 80 percent fat while most of the world’s butter is 82 percent fat and unsalted. He pointed out that the economic incentive right now is to “push fat into dairy products.” He cited rising whole milk sales as an example, plus Class II products, and even cheese is featuring increased fat levels. That makes more sense than producing bulk butter, he concluded, and all those things “keep butter in short supply.” The CME will accept a Certificate of Analysis for bulk butter.

Twenty three cars pendent laboratory.” exchanged hands on the week at the CME. The CME action was prompted by the American Butter Institute, which says the change will “make butter marketing easier for both buyers and sellers.” One more factor regarding butter: the Daily Dairy Report’s Sarina Sharp wrote in the Jan. 15 Milk Producers Council newsletter that “Easter and Passover are early this year, so butter makers have a shorter window to restock for post-Lent demand after the holiday baking season. But by all accounts they are doing so. Cream multiples are low enough to encourage manufacturers to churn at capacity rather than to sell excess cream.” Central butter production is reported as active as cream is readily available from sources within and outside the region, according to DMN. Food service orders are unchanged. Sales into retail outlets are light, although some orders have improved since the year-end holidays. Western butter makers are also actively churning. Domestic consumer demand is “decent” and buyers are eager to get their retail butter needs met in advance of the spring holidays. As a result, the butter market is experiencing a higher price trend than in previous years. Many buyers seem comfortable with current prices, says DMN. Inventories are building slowly, which is typical for this time of year.

response to a drop in the yield forecast for both crops.” As it always does, USDA’s monthly Livestock, Dairy, and Poultry Outlook, issued Jan. 19, mirrored dairy projections contained in the latest World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report issued Jan. 12. The Outlook also stated that feed price forecasts were lowered from last month. The corn price for 2015-16 is forecast at $3.30-$3.90 per bushel, a reduction from last month’s forecast of $3.35-$3.95. The 2015-16 soybean meal price forecast is $270-$310 per short ton, a reduction from last month’s forecast of $290-$330. The national average price for alfalfa hay decreased from $156 to $150 per short ton from October to November. ■ DMN reports an interesting factor in the organic side of the dairy business. “Global factors are increasingly important when organic dairy is examined because organic dairy imports are increasingly a factor in meeting U.S. demand that isn’t met by domestic organic dairy production. “For example, grass fed organic milk from southwest England, made into organic cheddar, is now widely available in a national natural food store chain and individual stores throughout the U.S. In fact, the 7-ounce size of imported organic sharp cheddar is even available through a U.S. based online internet sales company for $6.48. “Even at over twice the price of some domestically manufactured organic cheddar, sales are said to be good.
Organic cheese made in Australia is also sold throughout the U.S. in retail stores as well as online. Australia has developed as a significant factor in the world of manufactured dairy products which easily withstand shipping times and conditions from Australia to our shores. Some brands perceived as domestic brands source cheeses and milk powders in Australia to stretch what is domestically available. “Some Northeast U.S.-based regular customers for organic skim milk powder and whole milk powder generally make purchases from Oceania. They find assurance of supply as well as pricing are preferable to current availability of U.S. domestic product. While efforts continue to get more transitioning into certified organic dairy production in the U.S. to meet demand, specifics are difficult to discover,” according to DMN. ■ Cooperatives Working Together accepted nine requests for export assistance this week to sell 766,547 pounds of cheese, 1.543 million pounds of butter, and 110,231 pounds of whole milk powder to customers in Asia and the Middle East. The product has been contracted for delivery through July and brings 2016 CWT export sales to 2.86 million pounds of cheese, 2.87 million pounds of butter and 507,063 pounds of whole milk powder to eight countries.

Are your dairy practices up to par for winter? are not universal across all operations. Breed, weather and season, and the amount of milk or milk replacer fed can all affect the amount of calf starter needed to achieve optimal growth. As a result it is important calf feeders learn and apply what works best on the specific operation. Second, freshness is a must. Simply topping off calf starter buckets without routinely discarding leftover feed is a practice that is strongly discouraged, as this may lead to moldy feed on the bottom of buckets. Mold can result from moisture in the air, precipitation or even the calf ’s muzzle. If mold is present, calf starter consumption may be decreased and may even result in digestive upsets. Lastly, don’t forget about water. Water plays an important role in calf starter consumption. If calves don’t have enough water to help them consume calf starter, this may hinder their appetite. Calf feeders should be
aware that as calves get older, water consumption increases. Lack of adequate water for older calves may lead to slug feeding of grain and subsequent digestive issues. Even in the winter, calves should be provided with fresh, clean water several times a day. To keep calves growing and developing to become profitable members of the lactating herd, routinely evaluate your operation’s feeding practices and make sure that all employees are on the same page. Ventilation Calves need plenty of fresh air, even in cold weather, regardless of if your calves are in hutches or in naturally or mechanically ventilated barns. The fresh air removes moisture, ammonia and airborne pathogens. Uniform fresh air distribution is important but difficult in calf barns. It is critical that ventilation air does not create cold air drafts. Plenty of clean, dry bedding that allows nesting helps
calves retain heat and avoid drafts. Ventiltaion is also critical for your lactating cows as well. It is important to provide at least 50 cubic feet per minute per cow of fresh ventilation air in cold weather. More air exchange is needed to keep humidity levels below 80 percent when it is cold because cold air cannot pick up much moisture. Fresh air needs to be uniformly distributed to maintain uniform conditions for all of the cows. If your cows are in a naturally ventilated barn, check the curtains for tears and holes or loose sections that permit uncontrolled airflow during windy weather. If your cows are in a mechanically ventilated barn, check your fans and inlets.
