2 proposed North Dakota nitrogen fertilizer plants could reduce input costs, alter cropping patterns

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

A

rea farmers could see substantial savings if two proposed North Dakota nitrogen fertilizer plants are built.

“I really hope [farmers] are calculating this into their business plans,” says Dave Franzen, a North Dakota State University Extension Service soil specialist with extensive experience with nitrogen and other fertilizers.

He estimates that if one or both plants are built, the price of urea, North Dakota’s most popular type of nitrogen fertilizer, could drop by $100 per ton in the state and surrounding area. Other experts who talked with Agweek estimate the potential savings at $25 to $50 per ton of urea.

Decker joins University of Missouri beef team

n COLUMBIA, Mo. — Owners of

commercial beef herds baffled by all those numbers in bull catalogs should meet Jared Decker. Decker has joined the University of Missouri Extension beef team as a geneticist.

His first priority, he says, will be to help cow herd owners improve breeding decisions. He’ll teach how

OPINION

A closer look at CRP signup

n

Producers can enroll until June 14

By Doug Leier WEST FARGO, N.D. — Without looking over my shoulder through the columns I’ve written in May in the past decade, I’m pretty sure the top three topics have been fishing, fishing and probably fishing.

This year, however, I feel justified in deviating from the norm, as the Conservation Reserve Program is making headlines with a new signup period underway. Hunters and anglers need to take a moment to consider the future of this important habitat that the younger generation may assume has always been and will always be around.

Most of us can recall the limited pheasant numbers and to some extent, white-tailed deer numbers in the two decades before the start of CRP in the mid-1980s. Grassland habitat, whether it’s cropland idled through the CRP or precious native prairie, is a foundation that prevents soil erosion and serves as a filter within the important water cycle.

It’s widely known that North Dakota has lost nearly half of its CRP acres since 2007 — from about 3.4 million acres down to about 1.8 million acres right now. In recent signups, landowner interest has remained relatively high, but a variety of factors have contributed to the decline in acres enrolled in North Dakota.

Nationally, the number of acres allowed in the program has been reduced. Many landowners who wanted to re-enroll were not able to because their land no longer qualified, or was not accepted because their land was not ranked high enough against offers made in other states.

And of course, with today’s strong farm economy, many landowners with expiring contracts have left the program because land rental rates and commodity prices provide a better financial picture for their operation than if they had those acres in CRP.

Deadline nearing

This time around, producers interested in submitting bids to enroll land in Conservation Reserve Program acres have until June 14. Applications received during the CRP signup period will be ranked against others, according to the Environmental Benefit Index.

Kevin Kading, North Dakota Game and Fish Department private land section leader, says there are some EBI factors that producers can influence.

“Game and Fish Department private land biologists and other conservation partners such as Ducks Unlimited and Pheasants Forever can help producers find the best possible combination of factors that will positively influence their EBI score, which may increase their likelihood of being accepted into the program,” Kading says.

Game and Fish offers cost-share assistance and additional incentives if producers

enroll their CRP into the department’s Private Land Open To Sportsmen program to allow walk-in access for hunting.

“Game and Fish will make arrangements with contractors to assist producers with land preparation, grass seeding and CRP management,” Kading says. This service is offered for producers who enroll CRP in PLOTS in North Dakota’s Dickey, Ransom, Sargent, LaMoure, Burleigh, Emmons, McLean, Sheridan, Stark, Hettinger and Adams counties.

Producers should contact the county Farm Service Agency office, Game and Fish Department, or other conservation partner biologists for more information about the general signup and opportunities with PLOTS. A series of short videos with tips and advice on how producers can maximize their CRP offer, and information about PLOTS cost-share and grass seeding assistance, is available on the Game and Fish Department website: www.gf.nd.gov.

While the current signup won’t mean a return to more than 3 million acres of CRP in North Dakota, the Game and Fish Department is hoping that prospects for potentially higher rental rates, and a concerted effort to help producers increase their EBI scores, will help offset acres that are expiring in 2013, or even gain a little ground.

I mean grass.

Where’s my cow insurance?

Fewer guarantees for ranchers in farm programs

n

By Alan Guebert It was evident from his hello that the South Dakota rancher had practiced his pitch before he dialed my office.

“I’m (so and so),” he said in a clipped, clear voice, “an independent cow-calf producer west of the (Missouri) river with 500 cows. I’m calling with one question: Where do I go to sign up for revenue-based cow-calf insurance?”

I’m sorry, did you say “revenue-based cowcalf insurance?”

“I did,” replied the cowboy. “You know, like revenue-based federal crop insurance. Farmers get that now and they’ll get even more when Congress passes the farm bill, right?”

Probably, yes, but I’m sure you know there’s no such thing as revenue-based, federally subsidized cow-calf insurance.

A long, tired sigh came across the line.

“Well, yeah,” he said, “but somebody needs to ask why taxpayers are guaranteeing my neighbors $300 and $400 an acre profit through federal crop insurance to farm ranchland when I can’t buy any insurance — let alone subsidized insurance — to lock in one-tenth of that by doing the land right and ranching it.”

No argument. You’re right.

“Being right won’t mean much when my neighbors rent or buy the land I rent to plant more corn and beans while you, me and taxpayers buy most of the insurance to guarantee them a profit and me a smaller ranch.”

No, it sure won’t.

That was late March, and being right still won’t matter, because each version of the 2013 farm bill that cleared its respective Congressional ag committee earlier in May includes expanded versions of today’s generous federal crop insurance programs.

In fact, some of the liveliest debates on the bills centered on how to grow the federal crop insurance program while keeping ag outsiders — mostly environmental, nutrition and conservation groups — from either placing restrictions on the expanding program or poaching some of its funds.

Work remains

Each bill is far from any finish line, though.

The Senate bill, for example, includes compromise wording that links conservation compliance with the new, bigger insurance program. The House farm bill does not.

But the Senate language carries a distinctive only-in-Washington ring: In return for agreeing to tie the subsidies to conservation guidelines, the committee agreed to eliminate any provision that would cut insurance subsidies to farmers with more than $750,000 adjusted gross incomes.

Sweet as that is — essentially, continue to do

what you’re already doing and get even better coverage — some farm bill watchers now suspect the conservation part of the deal won’t survive the Senate-House conference to marry the two bills. They see the House version — no conservation compliance, no limits — gaining traction.

If so, my ranching pal’s future will sport more tractors and combines than cows and calves. Landlords and farmers, unleashed from any conservation requirement and able to buy cheap crop insurance that virtually assures a profit, will plow under more grass to plant more corn and beans.

But even if the Senate’s conservation linkage remains in the final bill, the rancher is headed for an almost equally woeful future because farm program benefits, be they direct payments or insurance subsidies, end up being capitalized in land.

That’s the biggest reason his cows and calves can’t compete with corn and beans now; the land has been made too valuable by the federal crop insurance guarantees paid for, in part, by you and me.

That puts you and me in the business of pretty much putting this rancher out of business as we underwrite the expansion of an already sweetly subsidized government program.

And here I thought one of us was for limited government.

OPINION

Sugar is economy’s sweet spot

High-profit food giants target sugar producers n

By Jack Roney Since the Great Recession, investors have been inundated with tips for turning losses into profit, ranging from gold to social media IPOs. But through it all, a pretty obvious profit center garnered few headlines, and now this “secret” soon could have public policy implications.

I’m talking about candy and makers of other products containing sugar.

As the head of the National Confectioners Association said at the onset of economic recovery, “A lot of people think it’s oil and energy that drives this economy, but it’s candy; it’s chocolate that’s doing well in this economy.”

Such a statement sounds laughable, but it turns out he was spot on. Alex Triantis, a professor at the University of Maryland, examined 10 large U.S. pub-

licly traded companies that produce highly sweetened products and unearthed phenomenal financial performance.

Triantis, the former head of the university’s finance department, found that shares of sugar-containing product (SCP) members have shot up more than 300 percent since 2000.

That’s compared with an almost flat S&P index, and the bulk of that 300 percent has come since 2009 when other stocks were sluggish.

Since 2004, SCP revenues have spiked 45 percent, which is 50 percent higher than the growth of the rest of the economy. Return on equity has outpaced the U.S. economy by 115 percent. And net profit margins during that period have been 17 percent higher than the average for other publicly traded companies.

These numbers show that had you bet on candy years ago, you’d be a lot richer today. But chances are good you didn’t create a SCP index for your nest egg because, like so many of us, you were unaware of this story of prosperity.

Now, these same sugar-using industries are hoping that such ignorance

will help them score political points at the expense of America’s sugar farmers.

Policy problem?

Led by the same NCA that once bragged of oil-like profitability, big candy companies are telling lawmakers that U.S. sugar policy has caused them financial hardship in the past few years.

To pull themselves out of the supposed economic doldrums, these big businesses are asking Capitol Hill to mandate oversupplies on the U.S. sugar market to keep ingredient costs at artificially low levels. And history shows SCP companies will pocket savings from artificially low sugar prices instead of lowering food costs.

This isn’t the first time these companies have sought to manipulate legislators to enhance profitability. In 2006, these same companies proposed sending sugar farmers $1.3 billion a year in subsidy checks to have the government buy down sugar prices to artificial lows.

Current U.S. sugar policy has no subsidy checks involved, but it does keep heavily subsidized sugar from Brazil and elsewhere from flooding the U.S. market and displacing domestic pro-

duction. That provision is under fire from candy executives, despite the fact that U.S. sugar prices are currently below world prices when transportation is factored in.

The Triantis study notes that if sugar policy were to be altered in any significant way, as the confectioners advocate, a large number of jobs supported by the sugar-producing industry would be lost to foreign subsidization. And, he says, there is no evidence that consumers would benefit in the form of lower SCP prices, so there’d be no economic upside.

This is not simply a theory; this has been borne out in the European Union, which altered its sugar policy in 2006 in favor of greater import dependence.

Since then, 120,000 EU sugar jobs have been lost, and sweetened product prices have risen 20 percent.

As Congress debates the farm bill, lawmakers should consider the whole economic story, including the one so many investors missed years ago. Clearly, SCP companies have thrived under the current sugar policy, and without it, we put another vital U.S. industry and our food supply at risk.

Wisdom from animal ag’s unique expert T

he first time I met Temple Grandin was when Ken Odde, then chairman of the North Dakota State University animal science department, called to tell me he had invited her to Fargo to meet students in 2004.

Would I like to meet her?

Wow, yes, I said. I couldn’t believe I’d actually meet Grandin, an internationally known animal scientist who is also known for being mildly autistic. Now 65, and a professor at Colorado State University, she grew up in a well-off family in the East. Her father wanted to commit her to an institution.

But she visited an aunt on a Wyoming cattle ranch and fell in love with the cattle industry. She famously noticed that animals handled in a squeeze chute would relax, and she created her own machine for squeezing herself. HBO made an Emmy-award-winning biopic film about her a couple of years ago.

In the 1970s, Grandin became a consultant and wrote columns part time for ag magazines not unlike this one. When the livestock industry went into a decline, she went back to school and acquired a doctorate in animal science in Illinois.

She wrote books on the topic of proper animal handling. In 1999, McDonald’s hired her to study and recommend handling changes for slaughter plants that provided products for the restaurant chain. Not long ago, she visited the new plant in Aberdeen, S.D., and gave it her assessment.

The first time I interviewed Grandin at NDSU, I found that I wasn’t typing notes fast enough to keep up with her. She is a highly efficient speaker — never repeats herself as so many people unconsciously do.

“Are you deaf?” Grandin asked me, in a tone I took to be impatient, maybe annoyed. But she just wanted to know if I was trying to read her lips. I tried to type faster.

The last time I interviewed Grandin in 2012, she was at NDSU again, this time wearing green and gold in Sheppard Arena. I asked her if she had some of her trademark braided cowgirl shirts in the colors of every college she visited. “No,” she said, turning the sleeve of the shirt that revealed “CSU,” or Colorado State University. The colors were a coincidence.

She seemed a bit annoyed, but I don’t think she was.

Grandin is pictured in the June 2013 cover of Costco Connection, a magazine for Costco members. Grandin is a consultant when issues arise with the company’s meat suppliers.

The magazine’s “Temple Grandin: New solutions from a unique mind” provided some new insights into Grandin’s world: n Half of all cattle in the U.S. and Canada are handled in humane slaughter systems with equipment designed by Grandin. n Students at Colorado State University are sometimes “dumbstruck” that they can enroll in one of her classes, or that she might be an adviser. n Grandin, who famously thinks “in pictures,” to visualize how animals perceive things, had to learn how to figure out how people behave in order to modulate her own behavior accordingly. n One of her satisfactions about the HBO movie, for which she was an adviser, was that they showed real cattle handling and that was good for the public to see. n One of her latest concerns is that she’s seeing “too many kids who are considered mildly autistic come up to me and all they want to talk about is their autism. I’d rather have them talk about their science project or how they are training dogs or that they are in 4-H or they like to write science fiction,” she said. She won’t be defined by a disability.

LATEST NEWS Horse killed, 2 people injured in ND collision

n LAWTON, N.D. — Two people were injured after a colli-

sion between a car and a horse in northeast North Dakota.

The accident happened about 5 a.m. June 2 on Highway 1 near Lawton. The Highway Patrol says a 1998 Pontiac Grand Am driven by 29-year-old Jack Nesdahl of East Grand Forks, Minn., struck the horse, which had escaped from its pen and was standing on the highway. Authorities say Nesdahl and 16-year-old John Rodriguez of East Grand Forks were transported to a Park River hospital. Rodriguez was treated and released. Nesdahl was moved to a Grand Forks hospital, where he was treated and released.

Kan. wheat farmer sues Monsanto for gross negligence

n WICHITA, Kan. — A Kansas wheat farmer has filed a civil lawsuit against Monsanto alleging gross negligence and other causes of action after press reports of the discovery of unapproved genetically modified wheat in an 80-acre field in Oregon. The farmer seeks compensation for damages caused by the discovery, which sent wheat export futures prices spiraling downward. The case may be the first of many Monsanto faces over alleged wheat contamination. Susman Godfrey, one of the nation’s leading trial firms, along with co-counsel the Murray Law Firm and Goldman Phipps PLLC, filed the case before the Honorable Monti Belot, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas. “Monsanto has failed our nation’s wheat farmers,” says Stephen Susman, Susman Godfrey’s lead attorney on the case. “We believe Monsanto knew of the risks its genetically altered wheat posed and failed to protect farmers and their crops from those risks.” After news broke of the discovery of the unapproved wheat, Japan and South Korea suspended some imports of American wheat, and the European Union, which imports more than 1 million tons of U.S. wheat a year, said it would ensure its “zero tolerance” policy against genetically modified crops was maintained.

Reduced ethanol production met with first RIN drawdown

n A shortfall in ethanol production has led to a drawdown

CANOLA 88% of the U.S. production

in Renewable Identification Numbers for the first time. U.S. ethanol production in the first half of 2012 averaged about 900,000 barrels per day, or an annualized total of 13.8 billion gallons. Widespread drought across corn-producing regions in the Midwest reduced corn harvests, and as a result ethanol production rates began to decrease. Ethanol production in the second half of 2012 fell to an average of 830,000 barrels per day, or an annualized total of about 12.7 billion gallons. After accounting for ethanol exports, which do not provide RINs for Renewable Fuel Standard compliance, this lower ethanol output in the second half of 2012 led to corn ethanol consumption falling an estimated 600 million gallons short of the 13.2 billion gallons expected for the 2012 RFS target. The available bank of corn ethanol RINs was estimated at 2.1 billion gallons after the drawdown for 2012 RFS compliance purposes, while the total supply of all banked RIN classifications (including biomass-based diesel and advanced biofuels) was estimated at 2.7 billion gallons.

Franken presses Vilsack to help alleviate feed shortage in Minn.

n WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., wrote

a letter to U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack, asking him to take immediate action to help alleviate the serious feed and forage shortage facing livestock producers in southern Minnesota. In the June 5 letter, Franken requested that Vilsack waive the current prohibition on planting forage and hay crops on prevented-planting acres.

Farmers would then be allowed to help replenish the dwindling supply of feed and forage by planting emergency crops on these barren acres now and harvesting it before Nov. 1. Ten Minnesota ag groups joined the effort with their own letter to Vilsack on June 7.

Rogue GMO label found on Kraft Mac & Cheese in Britain

n The case of the labels warning of genetically modified wheat found on Kraft Mac & Cheese boxes in Britain has been solved. The labels, posted on the product’s own Facebook page and picked up by a food blogger, set off a buzz among consumers overseas and in the United States

around the same time that modified wheat was found in a field in Oregon. The problem, it seems, is that Kraft does not use genetically engineered wheat, which is not commercially available, according to a spokeswoman. So the label’s origins perplexed Kraft officials. While the U.S. does not require the labeling of food products containing genetically engineered ingredients, food manufacturers in the European Union must do so, and many big companies reformulate their products using conventional crops to avoid the labeling requirement. Flo Wrightson Cross, a student in north London, was the person who first posted the photo to Facebook, after discovering the GMO label at a Tesco store in Ponders End where she bought the food.

Tesco was as baffled by the label as Kraft, indicating that a distributor, Innovative Bites, had slapped on the warning.

Innovative Bites did not respond to calls or emails.

n Horse mistreatment: Authorities in Minnesota’s Otter

Tail County are looking for a couple accused of mistreating horses at their rural property near Vergas. Bill and Penny Fick failed to appear in court on charges of animal mistreatment. Warrants have been issued for their arrests. A third person, 19-year-old Billy Tompkins, is also charged in the case and was arrested May 31. Six horses were found dead at the Ficks property last February and several other horses were found severely malnourished. n Anthrax cattle death: Anthrax has caused the death of a cow in Minnesota’s Pennington County, according to the Minnesota Board of Animal Health. This is the first documented case of the disease in Minnesota since 2008. The cow was found dead on the farm on June 3 and samples were collected and sent to the North Dakota State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory in Fargo. The herd had not been vaccinated for the disease and will remain under quarantine for 30 days. Grazing animals are most likely to become infected with the disease after periods of heavy rain, flooding or excavation. Cases usually occur in areas where animals have previously died of anthrax. Anthrax is not spread by animal-to-animal contact.

Vaccinate for anthrax n

It’s not too early

North Dakota State University

Now is the time for livestock produc-

ers to get their animals vaccinated against anthrax.

“Conditions this year are conducive to the development of anthrax,” warns Charlie Stoltenow, North Dakota State

University Extension Service veterinarian.

Those conditions include the heavy rainfall most of North Dakota is experiencing this spring. Anthrax spores can

survive in the soil for decades, and rain and flooding can raise the spores to the ground’s surface. When animals graze or consume forage or water contaminated with the spores, they are exposed to the disease.

“That is why cattle should be vaccinated before they are turned out onto pasture,” Stoltenow says. “Vaccination is especially important for livestock in areas with a history of anthrax.”

While the disease mainly has been reported in northeast, southeast and south-central North Dakota, it has been found in almost every part of the state, according to state animal health officials. Cases of the disease occur in the region almost every year.

Livestock in areas where anthrax has been found should be vaccinated about four weeks before the disease usually appears. In North Dakota, that generally is July or August, although cases have occurred as early as March.

Herds within six miles of a prior case of anthrax also should be vaccinated, especially in years with wet spring weather or flooding. Because immunity appears to wane after about six months, livestock need to be vaccinated for anthrax annually.

“The vaccine is inexpensive and very effective,” Stoltenow says.

He recommends producers check with their veterinarian to make sure their livestock’s vaccination schedule is adequate and the vaccination is up to date.

If anthrax is detected in a herd, producers should move the herd immediately to a new pasture, away from where dead animals were found to prevent other animals from getting infected, Stoltenow says.

During severe outbreak conditions, animals that haven’t been vaccinated and are exposed to anthrax may have to be treated with antibiotics and then vaccinated.

Producers thinking about treating with antibiotics should contact their veterinarian because antibiotics decrease the effectiveness of the vaccine, Stoltenow says.

Producers also should monitor their herds for unexpected deaths and report those losses to their veterinarian.

Because anthrax also is a risk to humans, people should not move a carcass. The carcasses of animals that died from anthrax should be disposed of, preferably through burning, as close to where they died as possible. Any contaminated soil should be piled on top of the carcasses for burning, Stoltenow says.

little of it.

Joel Ransom, NDSU Extension cereal grains and corn specialist, says crop prices, not the supply of nitrogen fertilizer, will determine what farmers raise.

“The price they get for their crop is what matters,” he says.

Bill Zurn, a Callaway, Minn., farmer, also says crop prices will dictate what farmers plant.

Franzen discounts a possible connection between cheaper or more plentiful nitrogen and planting decisions.

“I don’t see it being manifest in increased acres of corn or wheat or anything like that,” Franzen says.

But Swenson says lower fertilizer prices would have some impact on planting decisions, albeit a smaller one than crop prices.

“It (nitrogen prices) wouldn’t be the driver on planting decisions. Crop prices are the driver. But you have to factor in input costs, too,” he says.

Randy Englund, executive director of the South Dakota Wheat Commission, says he’s uncertain if lower fertilizer prices would encourage farmers to plant more of some crops and less of others.

The important thing is that farmers would pay less for fertilizer, he says.

Continued from Page 1

Agweek ran those estimated savings past Andy Swenson, an NDSU Extension farm management specialist who tracks farm expenses and their impact on profitability.

He applied the potential savings to corn and spring wheat, both of which are heavy users of nitrogen. His conclusion: n A reduction of $25 per ton would cut the per-acre cost of planting corn by roughly $4.60 and planting spring wheat by $3.50 in the Red River Valley of eastern North Dakota.

A reduction of $100 per ton would cut the per-acre cost of planting corn by $18.50 and the per-acre cost of planting wheat by roughly $14 in the RRV. n In central North Dakota, where nitrogen isn’t used as heavily, the peracre savings would be roughly two-thirds as much as it is in the RRV. n In western North Dakota, where nitrogen use is still more limited, the per-acre savings would be roughly half as much as in the RRV. “Those are just projections, though,” Swenson says.

Urea currently costs about $500 per ton.

Yields, nitrogen use

Change in crops ahead?

There’s agreement, however, that cheaper, more plentiful nitrogen wouldn’t cause farmers to use more of it in hopes of raising yields.

Crop prices, not fertilizer prices, are the dominant factor in deciding how much fertilizer to use, Franzen says.

His website (www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/ soils/wheat) includes a calculator that

The two proposed nitrogen fertilizer plants, if built, also should make nitrogen more plentiful and readily available in the area. There are mixed views on whether that might encourage farmers to plant more acres to crops that use a lot of nitrogen and fewer acres to crops that use relatively

looks at crop prices, fertilizer prices and fertilizer use.

Fertilizer use on sugar beets wouldn’t be affected by lower nitrogen prices, says Mike Metzger, research agronomist for Wahpeton, N.D.-based Minn-Dak Farmers Cooperative.

Minn-Dak growers use about 120 pounds of nitrogen per acre to maximize quality, and that amount won’t change if nitrogen prices fall, he says.

But sugar beet growers would benefit if nitrogen were produced in the area, he says.

“Having it produced locally means cheaper, which of course helps our guys’ bottom line,” Metzger says.

Big deal in the region It’s difficult to overstate the importance of nitrogen fertilizer to U.S. agriculture.

As a 2011 publication of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service puts it, “Nitrogen is the single most important input a farmer can control to increase crop yields on nonirrigated fields.”

Nitrogen, phosphate and potash, sometimes known as the “the big three,” are all essential to plant growth. The use of nitrogen fertilizer, in particular, has increased because the yields of some seed varieties improve when it’s applied, according to the Economic Research Service.

In 2010, the U.S. used about 12.3 million tons of nitrogen, 4 million tons of phosphate and 4.5 million tons of potash, according to the ERS. The U.S. both imports and exports nitrogen, though on balance is a big importer, according to The Fertilizer Institute, a Washington, D.C.-based trade group.

wo organizations are proposing to build nitrogen fertilizer plants in North Dakota.

Northern Plains Nitrogen announced last month that it hopes to build a $1.5 billion facility near the northeast North Dakota city of Grand Forks.

Last summer, the North Dakota Corn Growers Association said it would like to build such a plant. The group is involved with the proposed Grand Forks plant.

In the other proposal,

CHS, working with the North Dakota Farmers Union, hopes to build a $1.4 billion nitrogen fertilizer plant in the south-central North Dakota city of Spiritwood.

Although the two proposals are separate, they have some things in common.

Both plants would use flared gas from oil production in western North Dakota.

And both would make three types of fertilizer: anhydrous ammonia, urea and UAN liquid fertilizer.

n

in the past decade, so nitrogen imports have been increasingly important. Imports accounted for 50 percent of U.S. consumption in 2011, up from only 19 percent in 2002. The biggest supplier of imported nitrogen is Trinidad, an island nation in the Caribbean.

Most of the imported nitrogen used in the Upper Midwest is shipped up the Mississippi River on barges, which adds expense and uncertainty to the region’s nitrogen supplies.

‘Change the complexion’ The ERS has no research into the connection, if any, between new nitrogen plants and lower prices, says Wenyuan Huang, an ERS agricultural economist who studies fertilizer use and prices.

But he thinks more plants and more production “favor lower nitrogen prices for U.S. farmers,” he says, adding that his views don’t necessarily reflect those of USDA. He notes that U.S. ammonia is relatively cheap to produce because of relatively low natural gas prices here.

It’s possible, then, that U.S. ammonia producers may begin increasing ammonia exports because they can receive a higher price on global markets than at home, he says.

“Consequently, the price paid by (U.S.) farmers may not reflect the relatively low production cost,” he says.

Nonetheless, building one or both of the proposed North Dakota nitrogen plants would eliminate the expense of transporting nitrogen up the Mississippi, officials say.

“Having nitrogen produced in the interior would really change the complexion of where our nitrogen comes from,” Franzen says.

“I encourage producers to start planning for that,” he says.

Proposals are separate, but have similarities

Following is a short description of each type.

Urea: A dry material with a relatively high percentage of nitrogen, about 45 to 46 percent. It is a relatively cheap per-unit source of nitrogen, and a relatively safe and easy-touse source. It’s now the most commonly used type of nitrogen in the region.

Anhydrous ammonia: A liquid with the highest percentage of nitrogen (82 percent) of all nitrogen fertilizers. It is one of the cheapest per-unit sources of nitrogen. Safety and

convenience issues, however, have reduced its popularity.

UAN (Urea ammonium nitrate): A combination, in liquid form, of urea and ammonium nitrate; 28 to 32 percent nitrogen. Benefits include ease of storage, handling and application.

It is less common on the Northern Plains than urea and anhydrous, but its popularity is expected to grow, in part because of rising interest in “side-dressing” row crops. Side-dressing means applying fertilizer between rows.

‘It’s a blessing the water came, but it’d be a blessing if it’d quit, too’ n

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

Rains have hampered planting progress for much of the region, but most of the farmers and ranchers in central North Dakota say it took excess moisture to break the drought that they’d expected. Farmers and ranchers on a recent Agweek CropStop tour were largely upbeat about the moisture, even though it has slowed them down.

BISMARCK, N.D. — Bill MacDonald says the winter was mild — average temperature, but short snowfall — at the ranch, just south of Bismarck. The MacDonalds’ main business is Saler cattle.

“We never fed cattle MacDonald hay until about Jan. 5 — had ‘em on corn stalks until then,” he says. “I’m glad our spring (precipitation) came in the form of rain instead of snow in March.”

The family had a successful sale March 12, selling 140 bulls, with the best average ever. MacDonald says he was pleasantly surprised, considering a threatening drought and the lackluster cattle market since Jan. 1.

MacDonald, his wife, Linda, and his son, Will, raise crops on about 1,100 acres, including two center pivot irrigation units, covering about 340 acres.

The irrigated land offers less risk. One of the pivots is alfalfa and the other is corn, which was planted by May 13.

“I won’t plant anything a cow can’t eat,” Bill MacDonald says. “We don’t raise sunflowers. I don’t have the equipment, and I’d only plant 150 to 200 acres — you can’t afford it.

“You plant a day and you wait about five days, if it rains,” MacDonald says.

“I’m not complaining about rain. That’s something I don’t do and won’t do. We have grass and we would have had no grass if it hadn’t rained.”

The ranch received 8 inches in the last half of May, he says. “Sometimes we

don’t get that the whole year,” he says.

The family got about half its expected corn acres planted.

“We raise some small grain — oats, for feed,” he says. “We’re going to plant silage corn last. That way, it’ll work because it doesn’t have to mature and be ready to put into a grain bin.” He thinks there may be two fields, totaling 75 acres, that might not get planted.

But MacDonald is steadfast in not complaining about rain. “As far as I’m concerned, it’s a sin to complain about rain because God sends it to us,” he says. “We don’t have any control over it, and I’m always thankful to get it. You have more with (rain) than you ever have without.”

A life-giving rain

BISMARCK, N.D. — Jim Irvine, astride “Hiccup,” and his friend Jenn Mickelson of Mandan, N.D., on “Mia” on June 1 were taking a quick horse ride into pastures where bulls had been put in with cows, about 15 miles southeast of Bismarck, N.D. Mickelson works parttime at Interstate Veterinary Clinic in Mandan and part-time at the Irvine ranch.

“Exercising some of these fat horses that haven’t gotten rode for awhile,” Irvine explains to a passer-by. Irvine, 59, acknowledged his mood is a lot better than it had been in early May, before nearly 8 inches of rain had fallen.

Irvine had been very worried about drought.

“We had less than 100 bales left,” he says, so if it hadn’t rained, he’d have had to cut back the herd. “We were going to be out of grass and hay.”

And now? Abundant rain has given the ranch a new lease on life. “Every-

It’ll start a second cutting. It’s going to happen here in the next couple of weeks — this hay cutting deal. It’s going to start.”

Irvine’s cow-calf operation has Angus cross cows with Simmental cross bulls.

He has about 200 cows. His brother, Richard, has some cattle at Jim’s ranch, but also has others elsewhere. Irvine says the ranch had good luck calving this spring, but acknowledges spring was a long time coming. “We didn’t lose a lot of calves, really, like some did. We calve a little early and we have barns to take care of them,” he says. “You still fight a few sick calves. But we were able to treat them.”

Irvine usually raises some oats for feed, but that will probably change to millet because of the lateness. He also plants some Sudan grass for silage.

“I’m not a real good farmer to begin with and I’ve just kind of got behind,” he says, with a chuckle. “We got cattle out to pasture and about (May 28) was the first day I didn’t have to feed anything here.”

That was a good feeling.

REGIONAL NEWS SDSU develops tests for Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus

n BROOKINGS, S.D. — The Animal Disease

Research and Diagnostic Laboratory at South Dakota State University has developed tests to detect Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus in pigs. In recent weeks, swine herds in several Midwest states have experienced signs of illness attributed to this emerging virus. Until now, PEDV had not previously been detected in the U.S. This virus causes diarrhea and dehydration in pigs of all ages, but is most severe in baby pigs. In this age group, mortality has been reported to be as high as 40 percent in some herds.

Diagnostic lab scientists at the ADRDL, working together with other Midwest diagnostic laboratories, have developed a molecular test that detects the presence of PEDV in stool samples or tissues from affected pigs. The test can be run in conjunction with a molecular test that detects Transmissible Gastroenteritis Virus, which is a closely related but separate virus that can cause many of the same signs in swine herds. Swine producers who detect signs of diarrhea in their herds should contact their veterinarian to coordinate sample submission for PEDV testing. Once the samples are received at the ADRDL, results generally are available the next working day. The results can be accessed by the veterinarian 24 hours a day through the ADRDL’s secure, password-protected web reporting site. SDSU scientists are working on this emerging disease threat from many different angles, which will eventually mean the development of additional diagnostic techniques that will help swine producers more rapidly and more conveniently detect the spread of the virus through their herds. These additional tests will include blood tests to detect exposure to the virus, as well as methods to “fingerprint” individual virus isolates. Information about PEDV is rapidly changing. Swine producers who suspect the presence of the virus in their herd should contact their veterinarian for information about treatment and methods to limit the spread of the virus between groups on the farm and between farms.

The Leader in Overlap Control

SeedMaster now offers Auto Zone Command™ & FLIP™ (Full Last Implement Pass) as standard features on its on-board and tow-behind tanks.

Auto Zone Command prevents costly input overlap by instantly stopping product flow in up to 10 metering zones. The more zones you control, the more money you will save.

FLIP is SeedMaster’s patented mapping software that activates Auto Zone Command and halts product flow the first time openers pass through an overlap area. Product is then applied on the last pass, preventing double seed and fertilizer from being applied, and avoiding any seedbed disturbance.

The Big Payback – Savings using a 10 zone, 80 ft. drill

Walk the Earth on Father’s Day

‘Father of Sustainability’ in ag hosts Father’s Day farm tour n

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writers

Fred Kirschenmann, a native of Medina, N.D., is described by some as the “Father of Sustainability” for American agriculture. An organic agriculture proponent and pioneer. Kirschenmann also produces for the “biodynamic” market, which is a subset of the organic world.

He established Farm Verified Organic in 1979, one of the early thirdparty certification services for organic products. In 1998, he formed International Certification Services, which certify organic and other agricultural practices in the U.S. and other countries. Later, he helped establish the Foundation for Agricultural and Rural Resource Management and Sustainability, a nonprofit educational group based in Medina with FVO and ICS.

During a special Father’s Day event dubbed “Day on the Prairie,” FARRMS will host a film viewing and tours of area organic farms, beginning at 1 p.m. at the FARRMS home office, 301 Fifth Ave. SE, in Medina.

Kirschenmann Tickets for the Father’s Day event are $100 for the first person and $50 each for additional members of a family or company. FARRMS is offering a Father’s Day ticket price. Bring your father and up to three family members for $150.

Kirschenmann will host Deborah Koons Garcia, a film producer and widow of Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead, who died in August 1995.

In a separate event, held two days later in Fargo, Koons Garcia will premiere her movie, “Symphony of the Soil: Discover the World Beneath Your Feet.”

Symphony of the Soil is described as a feature film project, including various related short films called a “Sonata of Soils,” involving topics such as dry farming, nitrogen, the transition movement, biodynamic farming, composting, soil and water relationships and carbon sequestration.

Kirschenmann holds a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Chicago. He is a distinguished fellow from the Iowa State University’s (Aldo) Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture. He is the president of Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture in New York, which educates urban farmers.

At the event, FARRMS will unveil a new “donor wall,” featuring glass art designed by Renee Knight. There will be a showing of “My Father’s Garden,” a film done in the 1990s about when Kirschenmann returned to the farm and converted all of its 3,500 acres to organic farming.

Tour-goers will depart by carpool from the center, and Kirschenmann will give a Father’s Day organic soil tour at his farm. From there, the group will depart on a second tour and gather for a social at 5 p.m. and a meal at Fred’s daughter, Annie Kirschenmann’s rural home near Windsor, N.D. Event-goers will dine on locally grown vegetables and grass-fed, local organic beef. The event ends at about 7 p.m.

The schedule for June 18 events in Fargo: n 9 a.m. — Soil discussions, at Loftsard Hall at North Dakota State Univer-

sity, that is free and open to the public. n 1:30 p.m. — Field tour at Probstfield Farm field, Moorhead, Minn. That is at 4626 Oakport St., N., Moorhead, also free. n 4 p.m. — Gala with Kirschenmann and Koons Garcia at the Hotel Donaldson in Fargo. This event is $100 per person with soft drinks and hors d’oeuvres. n 7 p.m. — Garcia’s movie will play at the Fargo Theater, with tickets $15 and $8 for children under 12. There will be a discussion afterward, led by Greg Carlson, film instructor at Concordia College.

In 2004, Garcia wrote and directed “The Future of Food,” documentary about genetically modified food in North America, generally opposing patenting of living organisms and describing the disappearance of traditional cultural practices. “Rotten Tomatoes” by Flixter, describes that movie as “one-sided but revelatory.”

Proceeds benefit FARRMS education programs. Call 701-486-3569 for information, email info@farrms.org or go to www.farrms.org to purchase tickets. For information on the movie, go to www.symphonyofthesoil.com.

Regional news perts are working to prevent the further spread of a swine virus that was first confirmed in the United States last month.

Montserrat Torremorell says it’s not clear how the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus was introduced to the U.S. She says more than 60 cases have been confirmed in Minnesota, Colorado, Indiana, Iowa and Illinois combined. While it can be fatal to newborn piglets, she says older pigs generally recover after a few days. Experts say the disease poses no risks to the health of humans or other animals and no risks to food safety. As far as researchers know, the virus is transmitted only via contaminated feces, so producers have been stepping up their

spring work typically goes six days a week, with Sundays off. He was working on a Saturday evening with intern Casey Schu putting some urea on last year’s corn land that will grow another corn crop in 2013.

Initially this year, farmers were planning to plant more corn, but with the rain delays, some customers were shifting acres to sunflowers and soybeans, he says.

Nick Breidenbach, general manager of the co-op, estimated field applications might have been 21 days behind schedule this year.

“Typically, we’d be 99 percent done today, as far as fertilizer and seed inputs,” Breidenbach says on June 4. “I’d say we’re about 70 percent done.” He says corn acreage had been growing by double-digit percentage increases in the past four years. “This year, as it stands it’ll be about break-even as far as acres planted,” he says.

Nordstrom acknowledges it’s been a lot of hurry-up-and-wait this year. “We have a lot of different soil textures around here,” he says. “Sands will dry out quicker than the loams, but right now, we’re just managing what we can get done, around whether it’s wet or not. Some days, you just have to sit (and wait).”

The farmers in his area are asking for a lot of the straight urea — 30-12-7-2 blend, referring to nitrogen phosphorus, potassium and sulfur percentages.

There’s a lot of straight “MAP” or monoammonium phosphate fertilizer for soybean starter. “We haven’t gotten to the sunflowers yet,” he says.

Fishing amid the farming

FREDONIA, N.D. — There’s been so much water on his farm this spring that Jon Burkle took a Saturday evening off to go fishing.

Burkle and his sons, Michael and Cory, farm eight miles north and five west of Fredonia. Their land had 5 inches of rain since mid-May so on June 1, Jon and Michael took a short drive to nearby Marvin Miller Lake, near Gackle, N.D., where they picked up a few walleyes on jigs. The bright orange ones were working, Burkle says.

The Burkles raise a little wheat, along with soybeans and corn. “We’ve got the wheat in, got the corn in,” Burkle says. He has 550 acres of corn and 400 acres of soybeans planted, but 350 acres were still unplanted. He got another 75 acres planted June 2, but isn’t sure how many of the soybean acres might go unplanted.

“We’ve got spraying (to do),” Burkle says. “Next thing you know, we’re going to be making hay — hopefully.”

Eye on the buyers US wheat industry worries about response to GMO controversy

n

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Like just about everyone else involved in the U.S. wheat industry, Jim Peterson has many questions and few answers about the genetically modified (GMO) wheat found in an Oregon field.

But Peterson, the veteran marketing director of the North Dakota Wheat Commission, says he’s sure of two things: n His industry is determined to retain the trust of its customers. n His industry needs to educate its customers that a zero-tolerance policy toward GMO wheat may not be feasible financially.

“One of the main areas the U.S. (wheat) industry is working on is developing some level of tolerance. Zero tolerance can be very costly,” he says.

With a zero-tolerance policy, even minimal traces of a genetically modified organism aren’t allowed in food shipments.

In late May, unapproved GMO wheat was found in a single Oregon field of soft white wheat. No one knows how it got there or whether GMO wheat got into the food supply or grain shipments.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is investigating.

The discovery and ongoing investigation intensified attention on GMO wheat. The U.S. wheat industry stresses that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration reviewed the wheat in 2004 and found no safety problems with it. That doesn’t reassure GMO critics, including some foreign buyers.

Japan has said it won’t buy U.S. soft white wheat until the U.S. investigation into the unauthorized GMO wheat is concluded.

Soft white, hard red spring

Most of the soft white wheat grown in Oregon and the rest of the Pacific Northwest is exported to Southeast Asia.

Typically, exported soft white wheat is used for Asian noodles, Peterson says.

Hard red spring wheat, of which North Dakota is the leading U.S. producer, typically is used to make bread or to blend with other wheat to upgrade protein content or protein quality, he says.

So far, concern and uncertainty about soft white wheat haven’t had any discernible impact on hard red spring wheat prices, Peterson says.

“It’s planting delays — rain and cool temperatures — that have been affecting hard red spring prices,” he says.

Nor has he seen an impact from the Oregon GMO wheat controversy on the price of durum, of which North Dakota also is the nation’s leading producer.

Durum is used to make pasta.

The issue of GMO wheat came up recently when a group of Japanese millers visited North Dakota. The millers said that, while they don’t have a concern themselves, their customers back home do, Peterson says.

“We told them that USDA says there’s no evidence to indicate the material is unsafe or poses any health risk,” Peterson says.

“Granted, that doesn’t address the concerns of their customers. Until their customers are willing to accept it, we need to appreciate those market risks and concerns,” Peterson says.

Officials with Washington, D.C.-based U.S. Wheat Associates, which develops export markets for American wheat, referred Agweek’s questions to Peterson.

The organization says on its website that it’s confident “U.S., wheat, wheat flour and wheat foods remain safe, wholesome and nutritious for people around the world.”

Farmers’ views differ

The issue was further complicated on June 3, when a Kansas farmer filed a civil lawsuit against Monsanto, alleging “gross negligence.”

Monsanto worked with Roundup Ready wheat from 1997 until ending the work in 2004 because of lack of commercial opportunities and to focus on other crops. The company reentered the wheat business in 2009 and now has a herbicide-tolerant wheat in its research and development pipeline, according to the company website.

The company, in responding to the Kansas farmer’s lawsuit, called it “a wild swing that is unlikely to connect,” according to published reports.

Walter Miller, an Olive, Mont., rancher and wheat producer, is among the opponents of GMO wheat.

“We know our customers don’t want GM wheat and that even the hint of it in Montana fields would threaten our export market because they will not buy any wheat from a country where GM wheat is grown,” he says in a news release.

Miller is president of the Northern Plains Resource Council, a Montana conservation and family resource group.

In any case, the APHIS investigation, with which Monsanto officials say they’re cooperating, has many questions to answer.

One of the biggest is how the wheat got into the Oregon field. Monsanto officials said June 5 that it likely was the result of an accident or possibly tampering.

Northeast ND farmers struggle with heavy rains n

By Jonathan Knutson Agweek Staff Writer

Parts of northeast North Dakota have received as much as 12 inches of rain in the past few weeks, and some fields probably won’t get planted, area ag officials say.

“It’s so late, and it’s so wet,” says Brad Brummond, Walsh County extension agent.

Slow-to-melt snow this spring delayed the start of planting, so the heavy rains worsen an already bad situation, he says.

Planting rates vary greatly. Some farmers have planted most of their crops, while “others have barely turned a wheel,” he says.

Further, standing water almost certainly has ruined some of the crops that were planted, he says.

“We have corn fields with a foot of water over them,” he says.

Tom Kennelly, a Grafton, N.D., farmer says many fields in his area are so wet “that they haven’t even been touched yet.”

Potatoes, sugar beets

Though it’s late, there’s still hope for planting potatoes, a major crop in northeast North Dakota, says Andrew Robinson, North Dakota State University/University of Minnesota Extension potato agronomist.

Spuds potentially could be planted into the middle of June, he says.

The price of red potatoes is relatively strong, which provides incentive to plant them even if late planting cuts into yields, he says.

Sugar beets, another prominent crop in northeast North Dakota, also have been affected by the wet weather.

American Crystal Sugar, a Moorhead-

To subscribe, call 701-780-1215 (local) or 800-811-2580

Minn., based cooperative, had authorized 458,000 acres of beets this year. As of June 5, only 418,000 acres had been planted, with northeast North Dakota accounting for much of the shortfall, says Jeff Schweitzer, company spokesman.

“It’s a very cold, very wet and very late spring,” he says.

American Crystal Sugar members are obligated to continue trying to plant their beets until June 10.

Northwest Minnesota, in contrast, generally has fared better than northeast North Dakota.

In Kittson County, in extreme northwest Minnesota, some fields are wet and may not get planted, says Roger Quanbeck, market president of United Valley Bank in Hallock, Minn.

“But we’ve missed the big rains they had to the west (in northwest North Dakota). We know it could be a lot worse here,” he says.

Insurance considerations

Further clouding the planting outlook in northeast North Dakota: The final planting date, or the date by which a crop must initially be planted to receive full federal crop insurance coverage, has passed for most crops.

Though crops can be planted after the final planting date, the coverage level is reduced.

Producers should check with their insurance agents, ag officials say.

Brummond and others say some northeast North Dakota farmers are interested in crops such as millet or buckwheat that don’t require a long growing season.

The thinking is, farmers will want something growing on their fields instead of having them be bare.

Kennelly, the Grafton farmer, says he hasn’t given up on planting more this year.

But the weather needs to start cooperating, he says.

“The sun comes out for a day or two and we think we might be able to start planting. Then it clouds up and starts to rain again,” he says.

Project aims to biofortify rice for improved nutritional value

n A team of U.S. Department of Agriculture

and collaborating scientists is closing in on genes in rice that regulate the uptake and storage of important minerals, a pursuit that could bolster the nutritional value of this cereal grain crop as a staple food of roughly half the world’s population. According to Shannon Pinson, a team member with USDA’s Agricultural Research Service, the ultimate goal is to conventionally breed new rice varieties whose grains boast exceptionally high concentrations of one or more of 14 essential minerals, including zinc, iron and calcium. The ARS-university team focused attention on three different population groups of rice — with the most diversity represented by 1,643 accessions collected from 114 countries. In this diverse group, they encountered rice accessions whose grains contained up to nine times the amount of minerals normally observed in standard U.S. varieties. The team also is developing molecular marker data for use in rapidly identifying high-mineral rice plants without growing them to maturity during breeding operations.

The team has so far identified 127 gene locations in 40 different chromosome regions that correlate to high concentrations of certain minerals and other grain features.

Participation sought from ag companies for study of women in agribusiness

n BOSTON — Agricultural companies are in-

vited to participate in key surveys to help round out the research data for the first-ever comprehensive study of women in agribusiness, which is being conducted by HighQuest Partners, a global agricultural events and conference firm. The study, “The Changing Demographics and Experience of Women in Agribusiness,” seeks to examine the current representation of women in North American agribusiness their experience in agribusiness, and the most effective strategies for recruiting, retaining and enabling women to thrive and advance within agribusiness. Currently, study participants are needed in two ways. The first is an opportunity for human resources professionals (male or female) to answer a confidential, 20minute survey about the demographics of women in their company (find the survey here: www.surveymonkey.com/s/WIAStudy).

Participants of this survey are eligible to receive a summary of the findings.

Researchers help threatened wheat crops in Asia

n CORVALLIS, Ore. — Researchers at Oregon State University have helped develop new environmental monitoring technology that will allow farmers thousands of miles away, in west and central Asia, to save millions of dollars while more effectively combatting a pest that is threatening their wheat crops. Twenty million acres of wheat in parts of Asia and North Africa are threatened by the Sunn pest, a bug that can destroy the value of wheat. Speed in confronting this pest is essential. Mustapha El Bouhssini, a senior entomologist for the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas, an organization based in Lebanon, learned about research done by Doug Johnson, an Oregon State University professor of rangeland ecology and management, which uses geo-referenced photos of rangelands for environmental monitoring. “When I heard about the OSU imaging system, I knew immediately we could use this for Sunn pests,” El Bouhssini says.

Self-motivated

By Mikkel Pates

Agweek Staff Writer

GARRISON, N.D. — Paul Folden personally sprayed about 106,000 acres as a commercial applicator for Garrison (N.D.) Farmers Elevator in 2012. It was the third year he surpassed 100,000 acres, and he expects to do more in the future.

Folden, 44, was nominated for the Agco Application Equipment Operator of the Year award by Garrison Farmers Elevator, and became one of four national finalists.

He already has nearly 30,000 Folden acres sprayed this year — a lot for a wet year.

But don’t make the mistake of hinting to Folden that he might not have a fourth 100,000acre year in a row.

“In a way, it’s kind of a big game for me,” Folden says, with a smile. “You tell me I can’t do 100,000 acres this year? Watch me.”

A history on the farm Folden grew up in Ryder, N.D., about 30 miles northwest of Garrison. He worked for farmers through high school and after. This is Folden’s sixth season with Garrison co-op, which is an affiliate of CHS Inc. When he started at the co-op, the applicators were happy to get 55,000 acres applied in a year.

“The first year I was here, I ran 58,000 acres with a little RoGator 854 with a 90-foot

boom — a little ‘Tinkertoy’ compared to what I’ve got now,” he says. “And I ‘roaded’ it everywhere. Now I have a semi-trailer” to haul the larger sprayers from job to job.”

He applied 120,000 acres in 2011, which was an unusually late season, and 108,000 in 2012.

Asked how many thousands of acres he thinks are possible to handle in one year, Folden pauses to think, before answering. “150?” he says. “That’s given the right year — an early spring and a late fall, the bestcase scenario.”

In 2011, he was putting preemergence herbicides down at the end of March and he sprayed until the third week in November. “That’s a big year,” he says.

In 2013, he started putting dry fertilizer down around April 1, but didn’t’ start spraying until the second week in May. Actual spraying is where he gets the bulk of his acres, because that goes throughout the summer. He can do more acres in a day with a sprayer than applying dry fertilizer.

“The machines are bigger and you’re not stopping to fill all the time,” he says.

Laid-back, competitive Despite an aggressive work schedule, Folden describes himself as “somewhat laidback.” He says when a schedule is on the line, however, he has high expectations for equipment and systems. “When

G Paul Folden uses electronic maps in his TerraGator to record and service customers for Garrison (N.D.) Farmers Elevator. things are on the line, stuff better work,” he says.

Folden says he pushes himself hard and wants to get everything done. “It’s gotten to the point where we’re growing so fast here, the acres are there. If I could spray 24 hours a day, seven days a week, there’s work there for somebody to do that.”

“He goes above and beyond to make sure customers get the value they pay for,” says Chris Gratton, the Garrison co-op’s manager, who submitted Folden’s nomination.

Bad weather can increase custom application demand because farmers don’t have time

to do their own spraying.

“There’s still guys out here who are trying to seed,” Folden said May 31, but on June 5, he said some may decide to abandon some acres.

“You may have a three- or four-day window when things have to be sprayed, or you might want to put a pre-emergence application before it comes up, and [farmers] just don’t have the time to get all of it covered. They hire us to do a part of it, or sometimes all of it,” he says. “Year to year, it’s always different.”

It’s always different Typically, Folden’s routine in

a year is to start with dry fertilizer, either on winter wheat or corn ground before the crop is planted. Eventually, he starts spraying. He might go out in the morning when it’s cold, apply fertilizer until noon and when it warms up, he’ll jump into a sprayer and spray until 7 or 8 p.m.

“Right now, I’m pretty much in the sprayer full-time,” Folden says. The spraying job is trickier, requiring more concentration to ensure coverage and prevent drift. Sprayers are bigger machines with 120-foot booms, 30 inches off the ground, compared with floaters,which are 70 feet wide and 5 feet off the ground.

“There’s a lot more going on that you have to think about with a sprayer,” he says. “But when you spend so much time with it, it becomes second-nature.”

Half and half Farmers with winter wheat might apply half their fertilizer in the fall and the other half in the spring. “Where we ran into problems last year, it was so dry that nobody sprayed,” Folden says. “Nothing was growing. But now this spring, with the moisture, everything just took off.

All the weeds just laid there, laid there. Now, they’re coming big-time and everybody’s having us spray big-time.”

The commercial applicator finalists were honored guests of Agco at the annual 2012 FOLDEN: See Page 29

Monsanto: Modified wheat ‘isolated occurrence’ Discovery of GMO wheat in Ore. field has upset US exports

PORTLAND, Ore. — A genetically modified test strain of wheat that emerged to the surprise of an Oregon farmer was likely the result of an accident or possibly tampering, the company that developed it said June 5.

Representatives for Monsanto Co. said during a conference call that the emergence of the genetically modified strain was an isolated occurrence and most likely resulted from an accident or deliberate mixing of seeds. It has tested the parent wheat stock and found it clean, the company said.

Sabotage is a possibility, says Robb Fraley, Monsanto chief technology officer.

“We’re considering all options and that’s certainly one of the options,” Fraley says.

Fraley said the company has a test it has shared with other countries that could “fingerprint” the exact variety of wheat that carried the gene, and it’s awaiting samples from the U.S. Depart-

ment of Agriculture or the Oregon farmer to test for the exact variety that emerged.

The wheat emerged in an Eastern Oregon field in early May and was resistant to the herbicide Roundup. Oregon State University researchers found the wheat had a genetic modification Monsanto used in field testing.

When the test fields were cleared in Oregon in 2001, the seed samples were sent to a USDA deep-storage facility in Colorado. The company’s research director, Claire Cajacob, says the company also keeps some samples it is able to test. The rest of the seed is destroyed, she says.

“We’ve been very careful of how seed is stored and where it’s stored,” Cajacob says.

The company conducted follow-ups with any entity that possessed the seed with the so-called Roundup Ready gene and confirmed that they shipped it to Colorado or destroyed it, she says.

Testing ended in Oregon in 2001, four years before testing ended nationally.

Company representatives said the average wheat seed only stays viable for one to two years in a harsh climate like Eastern Oregon’s.

The wheat emerged in a rotational field that was supposed to be fallow in 2013.

Fraley says it’s unlikely that other parent stocks were corrupted, or “probably we would have seen it for many, many years over the last decade.”

Grandevo bioinsecticide removes bee warning from label

Potatoes provide nutritional and cost value

NatioNal News

n DAVIS, Calif. — Marrone Bio Innovations

Inc. has received U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approval to delete the bee toxicity warning statement from its Grandevo Bioinsecticide label following a review. The removal of the toxicity statement is supported by third-party field evaluations that show Grandevo has no increased mortality or detrimental effects to honeybees. The key study was conducted in central North Carolina during the summer of 2012. The monthlong hive study compared the mortality rates of Grandevo versus a known toxic pesticide reference treatment and a water treatment control.Grandevo, a cross-spectrum bioinsecticide, is effective in controlling chewing and sucking insects, as well as mites. It works through oral toxicity, reduced reproduction, and repellency. Grandevo was not required to be field tested with honeybees.

“With the growing concern about the hazards many insecticides pose to bees and bee colonies, it was extremely important to do this field study,” says Tim Johnson, Global Head of Product Development with MBI. We can now reassure growers that Grandevo will not harm honeybees and can provide” critically needed pest control throughout the growing season, including when bees are active.”

n DENVER — A frequently expressed con-

cern in the ongoing public health debate is the lack of affordability of fresh vegetables, especially those that are nutrient dense. A new study, “Vegetable Cost Metrics Show That Potatoes and Beans Provide Most Nutrients Per Penny,” published in the journal PLOS ONE, shows that potatoes are one of the best nutritional values in the produce aisle, providing one of the better nutritional values per penny than most other raw vegetables and delivering one of the most affordable source of potassium of the more frequently consumed vegetables, second only to beans. Adam Drewnowski and colleagues from the University of Washington used a combination of nutrient profiling methods and national food prices data to create an “affordability index,” which was then used to examine the nutrients per unit cost of 98 individual vegetables as well as five vegetable subgroups including dark green, orange/red, starchy, legumes (beans and peas) and “other” vegetables. The results indicated while dark green vegetables had the highest nutrient density scores, after accounting for cost, starchy vegetables (including potatoes) and beans provided better nutritional value for the money.

Sudden death syndrome of soybeans n

Disease has been detected in SD

South Dakota State University Extension Service

BROOKINGS, S.D. — During the 2012 soybean growing season, samples from eight fields in five counties in South Dakota tested positive for the sudden death syndrome (SDS) pathogen. This is the first detection of sudden death syndrome of soybeans in South Dakota, says Emmanuel Byamukama, South Dakota State University Extension plant pathologist.

Byamukama explains that SDS of soybeans is a fungal disease that attacks soybeans early in the growing season, but symptoms suddenly appear later in the growing season — during the flowering and reproductive growth stages through pod fill.

“The plants that looked perfectly normal turn yellow and die in a very sudden and short time frame, which is one to two weeks,” he says.

This disease is caused by a soil inhabiting fungal pathogen called Fusarium virguliforme. SDS causes symptoms on both roots and foliage.

Signs and symptoms

On foliage, symptoms of SDS first appear as small, pale green, circular spots on leaves during the early reproductive growth stages. These spots enlarge into

flashy yellow irregular blotches between veins while the veins remain green. The yellowed blotches turn brown and die.

“In severe cases, the leaves drop prematurely, leaving the petioles attached to the stem. Infected plants may not always show foliar symptoms,” Byamukama says.

Roots of a soybean plant infected with SDS are rotted and discolored.

Diseased plants can easily be pulled out of the ground because of rotted lateral roots. If the plants are pulled when the soil is moist; small, light-blue patches can be seen on the surface of the taproot. When the tap root of the infected plant is split lengthwise, the internal tissue will be gray to brown, as opposed to the normal cream white color of a healthy plant.

Although SDS is a relatively new disease in the Midwest, Byamukama says this disease has been occurring in southern states for almost 25 years.

“SDS has been found in our neighboring states; Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska. The pathogen survives in crop residue or freely in the soil as thickwalled structures called chlamydospores,” he says.

He explains that the chlamydospores can withstand freezing temperatures and resist desiccation for several years.

When the soil starts to warm in the spring, developing soybean roots stimulate the chlamidospores to germinate and then infect young soybean roots.

Chlamidospores can be moved around

with flowing water and through any practices that move soil (e.g. farm machinery).

“Research shows that the fungus also survives well on corn kernels left on the soil during harvesting or shattered by hail,” Byamukama says.

The SDS pathogen infects soybean seedlings just as the seeds germinate, but symptoms may not be seen until flowering. The fungus colonizes the root cortical tissue in the early growth stages of the plant (V1 through V6). At flowering, the fungus penetrates into the vascular tissue of the plant. The fungus then produces toxins that are translocated to the leaves. It is these toxins that scorch the leaves, eventually killing them. The fungus itself does not invade leaves.

Because SDS causes premature leaf drop and flower or pod abortion, yield losses can range from minimal, with only a few plants infected, to 100 percent, depending on the cultivar and the stage of development when symptoms first appear. However, because SDS spreads in soil, usually only patches within the field may be infected. Over the years, inoculum can build up and spread to larger patches or even the entire field.

Scout fields and test

SDS, being a soil-borne pathogen, is difficult to manage and by the time symptoms are seen, there is little that can be done to manage the disease, Byamukama says.

“Seed treatments have not been found effective and foliar fungicides do not protect soybean from SDS infection.

It is therefore important that growers scout their fields,” he says.

If SDS issue is suspected, Byamukama says growers should send samples to the Plant Diagnostic Clinic at SDSU at no grower cost, thanks to a grant from South Dakota Soybean Research and Promotion Council. He also encourages growers to keep notes on the history of SDS in their fields.

Management practices Fortunately, there are a number of management strategies in place that can lessen the impact of SDS on soybean yield.

“If SDS is confirmed in the field, use soybean cultivars that are SDS resistant or SDS tolerant,” Byamukama says.

Seed companies provide disease ratings for SDS. Growers should check for SDS rating once SDS has been confirmed in their fields. Planting should be in warm and well-drained soils. Wet and cool soils promote SDS pathogen infection. SDS is commonly found in plants that are also infected with the soybean cyst nematode. Therefore, managing the soybean cyst nematode may reduce chances of SDS infection.

Because the SDS pathogen can survive on corn kernels, clean corn harvesting is encouraged.

Regional news SDSU Extension Wheat Walks slated for June 11 and 12

n BROOKINGS, S.D. — South Dakota State

University Extension will host Wheat Walks in the Delmont and Winner areas June 11 and at the Dakota Lakes Research Farm and the Gettysburg area on June 12. The drought and cool spring created significant challenges for winter wheat producers. The goal of these educational events is to help optimize the wheat producers have in place and effectively manage the crop in the future.

Winter wheat producers may find these walks to be of particular interest as some SDSU winter wheat plots have been abandoned and it is unsure how many variety plot tours will be held this summer. SDSU Extension agronomy field and state specialists will be on hand at each location, providing expertise in plant pathology, weed control, entomology, soil fertility and agronomic information. Each specialist will give a brief presentation, followed by time for discussion and questions. Those attending are welcome to bring samples from their fields for the agronomists to assess. Area agribusinesses are sponsoring the wheat walks and there is no charge to attend. Dates and times: June 11 at 9:30 a.m.: Agland Co-op, two miles south and three miles west of Delmont, S.D., or five miles south and six miles east of Ar-

mour; June 11 at 2:30 p.m.: Jorgensen Farm, from Winner, 8.5 miles north on North County Road, 2.5 miles west, four miles north and a half-mile west; June 12 at 9:30 a.m.: Dakota Lakes Research Farm, 17 miles east of Pierre on State Highway 34; June 12 at 2:30 p.m.: Robbenault Farm, from the junction of State Highway 83 and 212, five miles west of Gettysburg, go one mile south on 305th Ave. Information: www.igrow.org.

Evaluate plants at emergence

n De SMET, S.D. — Growers can glean valu-

able information by evaluating their plants within days of emergence says Mike Knight, genetic researcher and agronomist with Legend Seeds,. “Early-stage development absolutely sets the tone for the rest of the plant’s development,” Knight says. “Evaluating individual plants within the field is the best way for growers to know if the plant is developing to its full potential.” Knight says by evaluating their plants throughout the growing season growers can gauge plant development and seed performance; verify planting depth and detect, as well as remedy nutrient deficiency. When evaluating newly emerged plants, Knight says growers should begin by looking at a portion of the field to determine the actual emergence population.

Like many aspects of plant evaluation, this helps growers determine if the seed is per-

forming as it should. “Each corn plant has its own rate of emergence and development.

These things are crucial to where they are planted. If a product is planted improperly it impacts yields and ultimately profits,” Knight says. He then encourages growers to dig down and measure the mesocotyl, which is the distance from the seed to the soil’s surface. By doing this, growers can determine actual planting depth and if their planter was correctly calibrated. “Proper planting depth goes hand in hand with strong root development. If a plant isn’t planted deep enough it will lose critical nutrient uptake and standability later in the growing season,” Knight says. Knight points to data from some Legend Seeds test plots which showed improper planting depth to result in yield loss of as much as 12 to 25 bushels per acre. While initial plant evaluation can provide growers with useful information when planning 2014 management practices and selecting seed, Knight says it’s important to evaluate plants throughout the growing season. In some cases, growers can increase yields through plant evaluation. For example, when looking at leaf coloration to determine if the plant is taking up the proper nutrients, if they catch a nutrient deficiency early enough in the plant’s development, there is the opportunity to side dress before yields are negatively affected.

He says it’s also important to note the plant’s stage of development and compare it to its

peers. After pollination, he encourages growers to review ear development and stalk health. “Plant evaluation helps growers develop their harvesting plan,” he says. “Some early maturing hybrids may need to be harvested prior to the desired 15 percent moisture. Remember, once the plant matures it begins to shut down and the stalk dries down becoming weaker than it once was.”

North-central Neb. ethanol plant sold

n OMAHA, Neb. — An Omaha-based

ethanol company says it’s buying an idle ethanol plant in north-central Nebraska.

Green Plains Renewable Energy Inc. said June 4 that it has signed an agreement with Choice Ethanol Holdings LLC to acquire the former Nedak Ethanol plant in Atkinson. The deal includes an ethanol storage and loading facility about 15 miles east of the plant.

Terms were not disclosed. The Norfolk Daily News has reported that Choice Ethanol, of Fargo, N.D., was a company formed by Nedak Ethanol’s lenders. Choice Ethanol had bought the plant at auction in January. Green Plains CEO Todd Becker says Green Plains plans to staff and restart the plant within the next four weeks. The plant can produce about 50 million gallons of ethanol a year.

NDSU establishes prevented-planting website Provides analyzer to help producers

n

North Dakota State University

Nature’s clock is beyond the optimal planting time and wet conditions in areas of North Dakota may continue.

This will prevent some producers from seeding all their acres before the dates that crop insurance coverage starts to decrease, according to a North Dakota State University agricultural economist.

The final planting date for full crop insurance coverage varies by crop and geographic location. For example, canola varies from May 15 in the southwest part of the state to June 5 in the northeast area of the state. For wheat, durum and barley, it is May 31, except for the northern one-third of the state, where it is June 5. It is June 10 for soybeans, dry edible beans and flax.

“After these dates, farmers with insurance can evaluate prevented-planting for that particular crop,” says Andrew Swenson, farm and family financial specialist with the NDSU Extension Service. “The question is whether to plant the crop and accept the risk of lower yields and reduced crop insurance coverage or to collect a prevented-planting crop insurance indemnity payment and idle the ground.”

There is an Excel spreadsheet at www.ag.ndsu.edu/farmmanagement/prevented-planting to help with the prevented-planting decision. The website also includes other prevented-planting information on eligibility and final planting dates.

The program compares preventedplanting with growing the same crop for which a prevented-planting payment

could be received or some other crop.

In the analysis, the prevented-planting indemnity is offset partially by the direct costs, such as cover crop seed, chemicals and fuel, to maintain the land that will not be used for crop production in 2013.

This is compared with the income that could be obtained from growing the crop after the additional direct costs of production have been subtracted.

Two critical assumptions to be made are the expected yield and market price if one seeds later. The risk of lower yields and quality is elevated.

The analysis also considers crop insurance indemnities that may be received if a producer plants the crop late and yields suffer.

“Fortunately, the crop insurance coverage level only diminishes 1 percent per day for the first several days after the date when producers can choose prevented-planting,” Swenson says.

“Therefore, if a producer can plant a few days late, he or she still can have a fairly strong safety net and have the upside revenue potential on better-thanexpected yields and market prices.”

Other considerations arise in the prevented-planting decision. Planting will use up soil moisture and lessen the possibility the ground will be too wet for seeding next year. Another reason to plant may be to satisfy a forward sales contract. But late planting may result in lower yields and lower the actual production history, which is used to calculate future crop insurance guarantees.

“If soil conditions do not allow seeding by the prevented-planting date, each producer should analyze the prevented-planting option and consult an insurance agent if unsure the acreage qualifies, what the payment rates may be and other details,” Swenson says.

THIRTIETH

n The final results are in for the summary of

financial data from farms enrolled in the South Dakota Farm/Ranch Management program. Overall, the average operation saw expenses climb rather dramatically to $888,958 in 2012, an increase of $185,708 from the previous year. Most of the increased costs were a result of the sharply higher value of purchased feeder livestock plus expensive feed costs. Many of those dollars were spent in their regional area, thereby creating a good base of economic activity. For most farms enrolled in the program, livestock still ranks as the top source of revenue and it therefore represents the largest expense category at $390,217. The costs involved with feeding livestock were notably higher in 2012, espe-

cially the purchase price of feeder livestock.

In addition, purchased feedstuffs also rose by $25,044 from last year and totaled $94,218 but much of this feed is produced and processed in South Dakota. In 2012, crop input prices rose 30 percent and totaled $223,824 with chemical, fertilizer, seed and crop insurance all seeing increases. Many farmers now rely on a variety of consultants and this supports many people who are employed by local farm cooperatives and other private agricultural companies. Another important industry that farmers support is implement dealers, farm supply businesses and local repair shops. The average farm spent $42,221 in this area last year. Fuel expenses are another big expense and totaled $32,220 in 2012.

Fire kills 119 at poultry plant in China Focuses scrutiny on China-US pork company transaction

n

By Christopher Bodeen Associated Press

BEIJING — A fire at a poultry plant in northeast China trapped workers inside a cluttered slaughterhouse, killing at least 119 in one of China’s worst industrial disasters in years, despite recent work safety improvements.

Several dozen other people were hurt in the June 3 blaze in Jilin province’s Mishazi township, which appeared to have been sparked by three early morning explosions, the official Xinhua News Agency says. The provincial fire department attributed the blasts to an ammonia leak. The chemical is kept pressurized as part of the cooling system in meat processing plants.

The fire was one of China’s worst recent industrial disasters, with the death toll the highest since a September 2008 mining cave-in that claimed 281 lives.

It was the third major industrial blaze to be reported in China in less than a week. The two earlier fires were an oil tank explosion in Liaoning province that caused another oil tank to catch fire, killing two, and a blaze in a large granary in Heilongjiang province that wiped out 1,000 tons of grain.

Many of China’s factories have sprung up in recent decades to drive the country’s rapid economic growth, but accidents and chemical spills are common, often blamed on lax enforcement of safety rules and poor worker training.

The government has tightened checks on factories and mines to improve compliance with safety requirements, and deaths from workplace accidents fell nearly 5 percent last year from the previous year, according to Yang Dongliang, head of the State Administration of Work Safety.

Even in China’s notoriously deadly coal mines, the death toll last year fell by more than 30 percent because of stricter management.

Taking a back seat The accident could also focus renewed scrutiny on China’s biggest pork producer, Shuanghui International — unrelated to the poultry plant — as it aims to buy U.S. food giant Smithfield in what would be China’s biggest takeover of an American company.

Jason Yan, technical director in Beijing of the U.S. Grains Council, says

Associated Press

G A water canon hoses down the roof of a poultry processing plant after a major fire that appeared to have been sparked by three early morning explosions in northeast China’s Jilin province’s Mishazi township on June 3. The massive fire trapped workers inside a cluttered slaughterhouse and killed more than 100 people, reports and officials say. safety considerations usually take a backseat in China to features designed to maximize production and energy efficiency.

“I’m sure they consider some aspects of safety design. However, I think safety, to me, is not the first priority in their design plan,” Yan says.

State media quoted survivors as saying it was difficult for workers to escape because only one door to the plant was open, while other exits were locked and the fire spread quickly.

State broadcaster CCTV quoted unidentified workers as saying the fire broke out during a change of shifts when about 350 workers were at the plant, owned by Jilin Baoyuanfeng Poultry Co. It wasn’t clear how many workers had been accounted for and a provincial government media official, who refused to give his name, says he expects the death toll to rise as more bodies were recovered from the charred building.

Some employees raised the alarm shortly after the shift began at 6 a.m.,

and then the lights went out, causing panic as workers rushed to find an exit, employee Wang Fengya says.

“When I finally ran out and looked back at the plant, I saw high flames,” says Fengya, 44. She and three other workers were sent to a hospital in the nearby provincial capital of Changchun.

Another worker quoted by Xinhua, 39-year-old Guo Yan, says the emergency exit at her workstation could not be opened and she was knocked to the ground in the crush of workers seeking to escape through a side door.

“I could only crawl desperately forward,” Yan was quoted as saying. “I worked alongside an old lady and a young girl, but I don’t know if they survived or not.”

The poultry plant is one of several in the area where chickens are slaughtered and then quickly cut up into pieces and shipped to market. The entire process takes place in near-freezing conditions and such plants are usually built with large amounts of

flammable foam insulation to maintain a constant temperature.

Jilin Baoyuanfeng produces 67,000 tons of processed chicken per year and employs about 1,200 people. The plant is located outside the city of Dehui, about 500 miles northeast of China’s capital, Beijing.

Established in 2009, the company serves markets in 20 cities nationwide and has won numerous awards for its contribution to the local economy, according to introductions posted online.

The area where the fire occurred is an agribusiness center, especially for poultry. Nearby is one of the biggest producers of broiler chickens in China, Jilin Deda Co., which is partly owned by Thailand-based conglomerate Charoen Pokphand Group.

The June 3 fire hit a company that is much smaller than Jilin Deda. Though it’s unlikely to have an impact on China’s chicken supply, the accident came as chicken producers were seeing sales recover after an outbreak of a deadly new strain of bird flu, H7N9, briefly scared the public in April and early May.

Weather affects somatic cell counts n

Wet conditions increase risk of mastitis

South Dakota State University Extension Service

BROOKINGS, S.D. — Wet weather conditions experienced in eastern South Dakota increase the risk of mastitis and the resultant increase in somatic cell counts on dairies, says Alvaro Garcia, South Dakota State University Extension dairy specialist.

“Some herds have already experienced moderate spikes in somatic cell counts in their milk during the month of May, an indication that an inflammation process is occurring in the udder,” Garcia says.

This comes at a time when counts state-wide have trended downward.

“Dairy somatic cell counts have seen constant improvements in the state,” Garcia says.

In the past five years, dairy herds in the Dairy Herd Improvement Association in South Dakota have improved somatic cell counts by nearly 21 percent from 282,000 to 255,000. He adds that during the last year alone, this improvement was 13 percent from 255,000 to 222,000.

What to do if your counts increase

If producers need to address a sudden increase in somatic cells during wet weather, Garcia says they should consider two main areas.

First, make sure an adequate milking protocol is followed.

“Place particular emphasis on stripping (at least three squirts) to eliminate the most contaminated milk first, which is the one present in the teat cistern,” he says.

Make sure that teat dip coverage is thorough and that it remains in contact with the skin for at least 20 seconds.

Garcia says using clean, dry towels to wipe the teats clean is critical.

“Make sure cloth towels are washed

properly with detergent and bleach, and the temperature setting in the machine is on hot — not just warm,” Garcia says.

Do not overload the washing machine, as this will not allow for a good washing cycle. Make sure the drier is not overloaded, also to allow towels to dry completely. Ask employees to maintain the towel bins closed while not being in use to prevent manure from splashing on the clean towels. Cutting a relatively small round hole on the lid of the tote through which the towels can be retrieved will reduce the chances of them getting soiled while in the parlor.

Second, he says producers should focus on cow comfort and cleanliness.

“Make sure bedding is replaced as often as possible, and that it is clean and dry,” he says.

He says deep bedding replaced less often is worse than more-shallow bedding that producers replace daily.

“Those producers that use recycled manure solids or bedded packs as bedding must take extra precautions during wet weather by removing solid bedding often,” Garcia says. “These two types of bedding are high in organic matter and an increase in moisture will promote bacteria proliferation.”

In addition, Garcia says manuresoiled water from alleys is more likely to splash on udders in barns that are not cleaned regularly. It happens more often when cows are moved rapidly from the parlor.

In general, Garcia says milking protocols have been more consistent and milk quality has improved when the same person takes care of stripping, pre-dipping, drying the teats and attaching the unit.

A producer who wants to revisit the milking procedure of his employees can contact SDSU Extension dairy specialists for help.

“It is easier to correct any milking procedural drifts early than to wait after somatic cells increase too much,” Garcia says.

A producer interested in establishing a clinic for dairy, or needing to work with an SDSU Extension Specialist, may contact an SDSU Extension Regional Center or call the SDSU dairy science department at 605-688-4166.

Wildlife experts warn of stress on prairie lands

n BISMARCK, N.D. — The director of the

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says there’s a “crisis on the prairie” as demand for energy and other goods put pressure on the land.

Dan Ashe was the keynote speaker recently at the Prairie Summit, a meeting of conservation and wildlife experts in Bismarck, N.D. Ashe says as the world population continues

to grow, demands for what is produced on and from the land will continue to escalate.

That includes food, recreational opportunities and energy. Biologists say agriculture and energy exploration can break up habitat and restrict the movement of wildlife or move animals out of their home range entirely. Even though there’s a record number of ducks on the prairie, 70 percent of the country’s native grasslands is gone.

Continued from Page 22 Agricultural Retailers Association Conference and Expo in San Diego in late November. Carl Peterson of Crop Production Services in Pipestone, Minn., was another finalist from the region. Still another finalist — Glen Slabaugh of Leesburg, Ind., got the top award and won a Harley Davidson.

The Agco award is based on spraying prowess, but also on community involvement. Until the early 1990s, Folden was a McLean County, N.D., deputy sheriff and also served on a local fire department in Garrison. A former professional fishing guiding on Lake Sakakawea, he also helped start the North Dakota Junior Governor’s Cup, a kids’ fishing derby for a community fundraiser.

He says it’s different from law enforcement, which he says is less predictable. “Here, I know what I’m getting into,” Folden says. It takes long hours to get everything done. The only secret to it is, “Go, go, go, go. Go.” Ag retailers will be able to nominate their custom applicators starting late this summer, according to Agco.

Folden would be eligible to be nominated again in 2013.

“It’s nice to know that people are paying attention,” Folden says. “I can drive myself, can motivate myself, but something like that helps. I know this year the event is in Miami. I want to go to Miami.”

Ag weather network goes wireless

n

NDDAWN stations undergoing updates

By Kyle Potter

Forum News Service

FARGO, N.D. — North Dakota’s weather service for farmers is going wireless.

The North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network has begun updating its weather stations across the state, giving farmers instant access to weather updates from their computers or smartphones.

Wireless is up and running at 19 of the network’s 72 stations. Adnan Akyuz, North Dakota’s climatologist and the network’s director, guesses that all of the remaining stations will be updated within the next two years.

The switch to wireless allows North Dakota farmers to get weather updates every 10 minutes, from temperature and wind speeds to dew point and soil temperature.

Faster access

A web-based network means farmers can access the information faster, Akyuz says. And unlike the old call-in system, several people can get an update at the same time.

Between replacing the old phone lines at each station with wireless modems, updating data loggers and solar panels to power them, Akyuz estimates the project will cost about $100,000 over the next five years. He’s

weatheR goes wiReless The following North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network stations have switched to wireless updates: Bowman, Britton, Dickinson, Edgeley, Ekre, Fargo, Forest River, Hettinger, Inkster, Jamestown, Kennedy, Lisbon, Marion, Michigan, Mott, Oakes, Plaza, Ross and Watford City. working on a proposal for the Legislature to foot the bill, he says.

“It is going to be quite an expensive investment,” Akyuz says, but one that will result in lower maintenance costs.

“The more information a person can get, the better off we are,” says Eric Aasmundstad, who farms small grains just west of Devils Lake, N.D. “It’s a good deal if they can get it done.”

Aasmundstad, former president of the North Dakota Farm Bureau, says he’s used the NDAWN call-in system sporadically through the years, but he typically relies on instant updates from his iPhone or iPad. Farming may be a traditional industry, but Aasmundstad guesses “a good percentage” of his fellow farmers also use smartphones or other technology in the fields.

“I’m sure the folks that run the weather network are just responding to that demand,” he says. “The increase in technology is what keeps the American farmer competitive.”

Cover crops for preventedplanting acres

n ST. PAUL — The spring of 2013 has left

many farmers making the decision to put some, or all, of their acres into the prevented-plant insurance option. Although cover crops are not a requirement of the prevented-planting option, they are a good idea to help with erosion control and weed management. It’s important for farmers to talk with insurance agents and their local Farm Service Agency. Understand and follow the prevented planting rules to ensure payment. There may be differences depending on the state or county. Planting date of the cover crop will be important for selection. A June or early-July planting date works best with warm-season grasses such as sorghum, sorghum-sudan grass and the millets. If left to grow through the fall, these species can reach heights of 6 to 8 feet and produce a lot of above ground biomass.

Oats, wheat, annual ryegrass, the clovers, tillage radish and the like often have an August planting date. What about a July planting date? These species deal well with hot

summer weather. The question is the timing of physiological maturity. Some plants may mature and go to seed before a killing fall frost. If this happens, tillage and/or herbicide will terminate any volunteers. Regardless of what cover crop is chosen, there are a few things to remember. Preventedplanting at 60 percent of the guarantee does not allow for grazing or haying of a cover crop before Nov. 1. The cover crop can be terminated via tillage or herbicide before then, however. If haying or grazing is needed, there is a “second crop” option that will allow it. The prevented-planting payment is decreased to 35 percent of the guarantee. Check with the Farm Service Agency to find what cover crop species are acceptable for prevented-planting acres.

Crops that can be insured (such as soybeans or alfalfa) are usually not considered acceptable for the 60 percent payment.

Order, and get delivered, the cover crop seed as soon as possible. Spring already has seen supplies decreasing and prices increasing. Consult an insurance agent and the FSA before making a decision.

Cattle summary Cattle receipts: 258,500; Last Week 153,700; Last Year 304,700.

Compared to two weeks ago, a good test of yearling feeder cattle sold 2.00- 5.00 higher in active trading. A much lighter offering of steer and heifer calves traded unevenly steady to 3.00 higher. Receipts continue to be dominated by heavy yearlings weighing over 800 lbs, which is fortunate since that is exactly where the best demand exists. Buyer interest is much lighter for calves weighing over 500 lbs which are currently in tight availability, while localized demand is readily absorbing any lightweights under 450 lbs. It is unclear whether this past week’s higher feeder market is the start to a summer run-up or just the backfilling of orders from last week’s holiday shortened marketing. As reflected by the CME Feeder Cattle contracts, late summer and fall yearlings are trading at a premium to current sales with the hope of cheaper feedcosts, but this gap is closing.

Buyers understand that supplies will be sharply lighter for the next several weeks until after the 4th of July shutdown, and year-to- date nationwide auction receipts are already 8 percent below last year and 14 behind the five year average. Also, herd rebuilding may be in its infant stages with the percentage of feeder heifers moving through reported auctions falling to its lowest point in recent memory this week at just 40 percent of sales. Wheat harvest is now underway and will make its way to the Southern Plains which will limit the already abbreviated auction schedules. All eyes are on this year’s corn crop, as analysts are now speculating on what will become of the less than 10 percent of acres that are yet to be planted and how much was washed out by recent heavy rains in the Midwest. Reported auction volume included 54 percent over 600 lbs and 40 percent heifers.

Old crop peas are hard to find

INNIPEG, Manitoba — Geens have been tight all year, but yellows also are starting to run out. Exports to India have been heavy through the winter.

Most of the pea crop on the prairies has been planted and has adequate moisture. Total acreage is probably a bit above last year.

New crop harvest is approaching in Ukraine. The prairie pea market is set to be priced off new crop, maybe not right away but, internationally, it’s already happening. New crop trades at a $1 per-bushel discount to old crop.

Pea prices are good. You’re getting $9 to $9.50 per bushel for yellows and more than $17 for greens.

There may be some price strength this summer if the majors keep exporting in volume, but traders are already having trouble selling those $9 yellows in export markets. In any case, there are few uncommitted peas left in Western Canada and exporters will be reluctant to make new sales they don’t already have covered. That said, pea prices should remain strong.

There will be little carryover, the new crop will not be huge and Indian demand should stay strong.

Lentils

AGWEEK / Monday, June 10, 2013 — PAGE 33

The lentil crop has been planted and has good moisture. As with peas, the market is poised to switch from old crop pricing to new crop and that means a 2-centper-pound discount. That switch normally takes place about mid-June.

Early June is also a seasonal high for lentil prices.

In most years, lentil prices decline from early June forward through harvest.

Reds are the stronger market. The big buyer is India. The surprise is that the discount on greens has been so persistent. There are certainly adequate supplies of greens in Saskatchewan. They are being pulled up by the red market.

The Western Canadian carryover of reds is set to

there is limited selling pressure on new crop futures because farmers are waiting until the crop is further developed before making sales commitments.

Feed wheat

drop from 500,000 metric tons last August to 100,000 this August. Lairds, in contrast, look to increase from 150,000 metric tons to 300,000. Estons may rise from 30,000 metric tons to 60,000.

No. 2 Lairds trade at 21 cents per pound, Estons trade at 22 to 23 cents and reds trade at 24 cents.

Feed wheat prices are at similar levels or only a slight discount to No. 1 Canadian Western Red Spring wheat at 13.5 protein.

The upside is limited in the feed wheat market, as farmers will start to release high-quality lower protein milling wheat into feed channels.

Cattle on feed numbers are declining after reaching their seasonal peak in late April. Therefore, domestic demand is starting to ease. We also see increased usage of imported dried distiller’s grains as the ethanol grind has increased in the past few weeks.

The use of alternate feedgrains also will limit the upside in feed wheat values.

Canola cash prices firm

Barley update

John Duvenaud

Cash canola prices edged higher in the past couple weeks as commercial ownership drops to pipeline levels. The four-week average domestic crush pace continues to decline into the final two months of the crop year. Margins have come under pressure with weaker world vegetable oil values, which has also contributed to the slower crush pace. Exporters and crushers continue to struggle to cover their nearby requirements, which has caused larger volatility in the cash market.

Strength in the soybean market has been supportive, but this is largely a result of higher meal values. The feedgrains complex will remain firm until new crop supplies come on the market.

Western Canadian farmers have made significant seeding progress nearing completion in most regions.

The upcoming crop is developing under favorable conditions. However, new crop canola prices have ratcheted higher on export demand. At the same time,

Cash barley prices in Southern Alberta continue in the range of $295 to $297 per metric ton delivered to the feedlot. Similar to wheat, lower domestic demand and increased use of alternate feedgrains has tempered the upside in the barley market. While the 2012 to ’13 carryout will drop to historical lows, the upside in the market is limited. There is usually a surge in farmer selling after seeding is completed, which also will limit upside price potential.

The upcoming crop is developing under favorable conditions and we expect new crop supplies to come on the market in early August if normal growing conditions materialize. The world barley market feels soft with aggressive offers coming forward from the Black Sea region for August forward. The world market freight on board Vancouver, British Columbia, is near $250 U.S. per metric ton, which equates back to under $4 per bushel in central Saskatchewan.

Wheat: export pace falls short

Markets stumble

Wheat gave back some of its gains last week, as improving weather forecasts combined with harvest activity to put pressure on wheat. For the week ending June 6, July Minneapolis gained 0.25 cents, September Minneapolis dropped 3.25 cents, July Chicago dropped 7.75 cents and July Kansas City slipped 12.5 cents.

Wheat started the week higher, as a general buying frenzy helped support all of the grains. But once the fund selling started to pick up in the corn pit, wheat started to lose its enthusiasm. Wheat was able to shake off the selling pressure and actually recovered to end with modest gains.

Wheat traded in a lackluster fashion June 4, as all three of the wheat exchanges traded on both sides of unchanged to start the day. Early support was from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s crop progress report, which continues to show poor planting progress in the Northern Plains, especially North Dakota. North Dakota producers only have 64 percent of their 2013 spring wheat planted, which means 2.2 million acres of spring wheat are left to get planted. With the final planting date for crop insurance fast approaching, it seems unlikely that all of these acres will get planted.

The June 5 session traded with losses. Wheat did trade with small to modest gains at one point, but there was no follow-through buying to help keep the market on the plus side. Support continues to come from poor planting progress in the Northern Plains. The poor planting progress was overshadowed by spillover pressure from selling from the other grains, as well as from seasonal pressure, as wheat harvest is starting to speed up in the Southern Plains. So far, quality reports are good out of Texas, but yields are at the lower end of expectations.

Wheat traded mixed to lower June 6. The winter wheat exchanges were under pressure from reports of an advancing winter wheat harvest. A disappointing export sales report added pressure to the winter wheat exchanges, as it appears that wheat exports will fall short of USDA expectations. The winter wheat exchanges had losses limited by reports that U.S. wheat garnered 61,000 million tons of a 163,605-million-ton sale to Japan. Spring wheat was the best performer, with support coming from planting concerns.

As of June 2, 80 percent of the nation’s spring wheat crop was planted, compared with 79 percent the previous week and 92 percent for the five-year average.

Sixty-one percent of the nation’s spring wheat was emerged, compared with 42 percent the previous week and 80 percent for the five-year average. North Dakota producers have 64 percent of their spring wheat in the ground (4 million of the 6.2 million intended). Spring wheat’s crop condition rating is at 64 percent good to excellent, 28 percent fair and 8 percent poor to very poor, 14 percent lower than last year’s rating. Seventythree percent of the nation’s winter wheat was headed, compared with 60 percent the previous week and 80 percent for the five-year average. USDA estimated the nation’s winter wheat crop condition rating at 32 percent good to excellent, 25 percent fair and 43 percent poor to very poor, an improvement of 1 percent from the previous week.

Corn: tight supplies

Markets

New crop corn futures were under pressure last week, while old crop remained near unchanged. The weekly progress report showed 8.7 million acres of seed still in the bag, with about 4 million acres considered late planted. The majority of acres left are in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Weather forecasts are calling for rain in these areas as we approach the last big week for planting. For the week ending June 6, July gained 1 cent and December was down 19 cents.

New crop contracts closed lower the first three days of the week. Pressure came from an improvement in planting progress and news that China bought its first

cargo of corn from Argentina since the two countries signed an import agreement in February 2012. Export demand has been poor and U.S. corn remains at a premium to foreign competition. The December contract did bounce back on June 6, with support coming from excessive moisture that continues to delay planting.

Talk of acres being switched to soybeans and larger prevented planting numbers also were supportive.

The July contract held firm last week with tight stocks and bull spreading. The ethanol report was decent and also showed the highest weekly ethanol production number since June 1, 2012. Stocks remain tight and talk of the lack of an early harvested crop offered support.

Ethanol production for the week ending May 31 averaged 885,000 barrels per day, down 2.1 percent from last year. Total ethanol production for the week was 6.2 million barrels. Corn used in production is estimated at 92.9 million bushels and needs to average 94.82 million per week to meet this crop year’s USDA estimate of 4.6 billion bushels. Stocks as of May 31 were 16.4 million barrels, down 22.6 percent from last year.

The crop progress report showed planting progress at 91 percent complete, compared with 100 percent last year and 95 percent for the five-year average. Emergence is at 74 percent, versus 96 percent last year and 82 percent for the five-year average. The condition is rated as 63 percent good to excellent, 30 percent fair and 7 percent poor.

Soybeans: planting forecast improves Tight old crop supplies and planting concerns continue to support soybeans. Tight old crop supplies still warrant rationing of old crop supplies, while traders are starting to show concerns about planting progress, as wet conditions continue to delay timely planting.

For the week ending June 6, July soybeans were up 17.25 cents, while November was 1.5 cents higher.

Soybeans closed near the day’s highs on June 3, with strong gains in both old and new crop contracts. Tight supplies and strong crush demand provided support for old crop, while strong export sales and planting uncertainty the week ending May 31 supported new crop.

Some unplanted corn acres are likely to switch to soybeans, but it is unclear how many acres at this time.

Soybeans closed lower June 4, though at the higher end of the trading range. Pressure was tied to a dryer forecast in the next two weeks that is seen as favorable for planting. The softening basis and unconfirmed rumors of Chinese import cancellations limited the upside.

Soybeans closed mixed on June 5 and 6 as the drier forecast should permit more planting in the coming weeks. Soybean acreage is expected to increase with acres switching from corn, but it remains difficult to predict how many acres will be planted. Strong crush and tight supplies continue to support old crop contracts. The June 6 export sales were considered neutral, coming in above the amount needed to keep pace with the USDA’s projection.

USDA reported soybean export inspections pace for the week ending May 31 at 4.4 million bushels. Soybean export sales pace for the week ending May 31 was estimated at 23.5 million bushels (1.8 million for 2012 and 2013).

Barley

USDA reported barley export shipments pace for the week ending May 31 at 30,000 bushels (all to China). No barley export sales were reported for the week.

As of June 2, 83 percent of the nation’s barley had been planted, compared with 78 percent the previous week and 93 percent for the five-year average. North Dakota producers have 58 percent of their barley planted, compared with 49 percent the previous week and 87 percent for the five-year average. This means 400,000 acres still are left to plant. Barley emergence was estimated at 62 percent, compared with 46 percent the previous week and 77 percent for the five-year average. Barley’s crop condition rating is estimated at 66 percent good to excellent, 29 percent fair and 2 percent poor.

June 6 cash feed barley bids in Minneapolis were at $5 per bushel, while malting barley bids were at $6.75.

Durum

USDA reported durum export shipments pace for the week ending May 31 at 881,000 bushels, with 804,000 bushels going to Algeria. Durum export sales pace was estimated at 400,000 bushels.

As of June 2, 54 percent of North Dakota’s durum crop was planted, compared with 53 percent the previous week and 78 percent for the five-year average.

Durum emergence was at 30 percent, compared with 19 percent the previous week and 62 percent for the fiveyear average. Durum’s crop condition rating was estimated at 85 percent good to excellent, 14 percent fair and 1 percent poor.

June 6 cash bids for milling quality durum were at $8.25 per bushel in Berthold, N.D., while Dickinson, N.D., bids were at $8.

Dry beans

As of June 2, 22 percent of North Dakota’s dry bean crop had been planted, compared with 8 percent the previous week and 63 percent for the five-year average. Minnesota producers reported planting progress at 44 percent complete, compared with 26 percent the previous week and 75 percent for the five-year average.

Canola

Canola futures on the Winnipeg, Manitoba, exchange closed the week ending June 6 with almost $21 (Canadian) losses. Canola started the week with small gains spilling over from an overall stronger performance in the vegetable oil complex. But this was to be the only session that canola traded with gains. For the rest of the week, canola played a follower to the U.S. soybean complex, which traded lower. Reports calling for favorable planting weather added pressure.

As of June 2, 50 percent of North Dakota’s canola crop had been planted, compared with 41 percent for the previous week and 83 percent for the five-year average. Emergence was at 18 percent, compared with 9 percent for the previous week and 59 percent for the five-year average. Canola’s crop condition rating was estimated at 54 percent good to excellent, 24 percent fair and 22 percent poor to very poor.

June 6 old crop cash canola bids in Velva, N.D., were at $27.62 per hundredweight, while new crop canola bids were at $24.32.

Sunflowers

As of June 2, 15 percent of the nation’s sunflower crop had been planted, compared with 9 percent the previous week and 43 percent for the five-year average.

June 6 old crop cash sunflower bids in Fargo, N.D., were at $22.60 per hundredweight, while new crop bids were $23.60.

Senate will vote on final farm bill June 10 n

Prospects for passage are good

By Jerry Hagstrom Special to Agweek

WASHINGTON — The Senate will vote on final passage of the farm bill on June 10.

Prospects for passage are good since the Senate voted 75 to 22 on June 6 to invoke cloture, which means ending debate on the bill after 30 hours. All 53 Democrats voted for cloture, and the Republicans were split down the middle, with 22 voting for it and 22 against.

The bill is much the same as the bill the Senate approved last year, although this year’s bill contains a target-price commodity program alternative that was not in the bill last year.

Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., Sen. John Thune R-S.D., and Sen. Mike Johanns, R-Neb., have objected to the program, saying it is backward policy, but southern senators and rice and peanut growers have insisted on it. The Senate rejected a bill to change the sugar program, but added an amendment that would reduce crop insurance premium subsidies for farmers who earn $750,000 or more.

The bill covers farm and food policy through 2018. Using the congressional system of 10-year cost estimates, it would cost more than $900 billion over 10 years, with about 80 percent of that spending going to nutrition programs. The bill would cost $24 billion less than current programs if they were extended and will make a small $4 billion cut in the food stamp program, which is now known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

The vote on final passage will be preceded by a vote on a pending amendment sponsored by Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., related to the provision of high speed Internet service in rural America, and then vote on final passage.

The Senate rules would allow for more amendments to be brought up during the 30 hours remaining, but that seems unlikely. The bill includes 38 amendments that the Senate passed in 2012 and 14 more amendments that were added this year.

Senators filed more than 200 other amendments, but could not reach agreement on which ones to bring up or how long to debate them.

Technically, there could be votes on other amendments or a package of noncontroversial amendments added en bloc, but Senate Agriculture Committee Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., told Agweek on June 7 that she doubted any more amendments would be added to the bill. Stabenow said she is open to agreement on more amendments, but so far, senators had objected to bringing up any other amendments.

The House is expected to take up the farm bill the week of June 17.

NatioNal News Midwest Dairy Association helps celebrate Dairy Month

n OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — During June Dairy Month, the Midwest

Dairy Association, which works on behalf of more than 9,500 dairy farm families across 10 Midwest states, has partnered with Feeding America, the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief charity, to help fight hunger. Midwest Dairy will donate $1 for every view to its Feedin’ A Nation parody video up to $20,000. For each $1 raised, eight meals are secured by Feeding America on behalf of local food banks. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, more than one in five children in the U.S. may not know where they will find their next meal. Food insecurity and child obesity often go hand-in-hand. For many children, food insecurity and obesity stem from disrupted meal patterns, family stress and lack of access, especially during summer months without school meals. Midwest Dairy created the Feedin’ A Nation video to raise awareness of Midwest dairy farmers’ commitment to help feed the nation. The video includes more than 65 dairy farmers and was filmed at dairy farm family homes in Iowa, Minnesota and South Dakota in early March.

REGIONAL NEWS

Acres of alfalfa lost to winter kill Farmers scramble to replace valuable cattle feed

n

By Elizabeth Baier

Minnesota Public Radio News

MANTORVILLE, Minn. — It’s been a difficult spring for thousands of dairy farmers across the Midwest who rely on protein-rich alfalfa to feed their cows.

Farmers in Minnesota and Wisconsin have lost nearly 2 million acres of alfalfa, a perennial crop that normally emerges after winter. But the punishing effects of last year’s drought weakened the plants, and the long, icy winter killed many of them.

Minnesota has lost about 750,000 acres of alfalfa; Wisconsin lost nearly 1 million acres. In a normal summer, farmers can harvest three, sometimes even four, cuts of alfalfa. But this year, farmers who have to replant will be lucky if they gather one or two.

“It’s put us into a very dire state,” says Lisa Behnkin, University of Min-

nesota Extension regional educator for crops. “Forage production, forage needs, forage inventory are all at great risk right now.”

That lost alfalfa has hit operations like the Durst Brothers Farm in Mantorville, run by Ron Durst and his two brothers. They milk about 1,500 cows and farm about 3,100 acres of corn, soybeans and alfalfa. Most of that crop goes toward forage to feed the cows.

“It’s a mixture of corn silage and alfalfa hay leaves, a little dry hay, corn, protein, then a mix,” Durst says. “That’s basically what’s in it.”

Durst lost all 900 acres of alfalfa. He says federal crop insurance will cover some, but not all of those losses.

“I would say, with the loss of our alfalfa, and you couple with the late planting of our corn crop, I would say it’s a half a million dollars here, at this point and getting bigger each day,” he says with a nervous laugh. “It’s a lot of money.”

Farmers who need to replant to replenish their feed reserves are delayed because of the nonstop rain, especially in southeast Minnesota. Durst has been

able to replant about two-thirds of the alfalfa fields. He’s relying on excess inventory from last year to feed his cows now.

“By probably late July, August, that will be gone,” he says. “So we’ve actually bought a little hay now to stretch out our own supplies. It’s coming out of Colorado. It’s very expensive feed — $380 a ton for alfalfa. Traditionally, it’ll be $200 or less, so it’s more than doubled. And that’s even hard to find.”

Bringing it in Farmers in the Upper Midwest are scrambling to buy feed from Colorado, South Dakota and other states, Behnkin says. They’re also stretching what they have now while they plant more seed.

But even that’s proving to be a challenge.

“We haven’t really had a chance to plant what we really need so we can make up the feed supply in the fall,” she says. “So we’ve got two things going: we’ve got a short-term forage need because we lost that first crop of hay in many areas and we’re also running into a potential long-term forage loss be-

cause we can’t get things planted.”

So far, only about 25 percent of alfalfa lost in the Upper Midwest has been replanted.

University of Wisconsin-Madison Agronomist Dan Undersander says the alfalfa damage is the worst he’s seen since 1992. He says livestock producers will continue to feel the squeeze if they can’t replenish their alfalfa fields soon.

Undersander anticipates some farmers will have to sell their cows and leave the milk production business altogether.

“We’re hoping that we can keep a lot of these farmers in business, and that we can weather this bad economic situation with them,” he says. “But certainly, we will lose some number of farmers on account of this, and the cattle herds will decline to some extent.”

Undersander says the big factor will be how wet the fields remain in the next few weeks.

“The best that we can hope for is that we have warmer temperatures and good moisture the rest of the season to let us recover,” he says. “Otherwise, things are going to get really difficult by fall.”

SD PUC eyes changes in grain sales

By Bob Mercer

Forum News Service

PIERRE, S.D. — The South Dakota Public Utilities Commission decided June 4 it must try to further fix South Dakota’s regulations for sales of grains, sorghums, beans and oilseeds.

The commission ordered that a rulemaking docket be opened and a hearing be held at some point in July, so sellers and buyers can continue to engage in voluntary credit sales.

The common practice allows harvested crops to change hands immediately under a verbal agreement, while price contracts are signed at later dates.

A circuit judge ruled in April the voluntary credit contracts must be signed by both parties at an agreed price within 30 days of delivery.

Otherwise, it is a cash sale and a check must be written by the buyer to the seller after the 30 days pass.

The PUC’s action to open a docket again comes just months after the Legislature rewrote state laws on grain transactions.

The Legislature approved changes in the law at the PUC’s request in the wake of the 2012 financial failure of Anderson Seed in Redfield, S.D. The PUC, in turn, adopted new rules this spring to comply with the new laws.

But the PUC wants to find a shortterm solution after a judge disagreed with the commission’s interpretation of the requirements for a voluntary credit sale.

Circuit Judge Tony Portra, of Aberdeen, S.D., said the ultimate remedy rests with the Legislature further changing the law. State lawmakers don’t meet in regular session again until January 2014.

PUC member Chris Nelson says he wants the commission to adopt some additional new rules that could cover at least the later months of the harvest season this year.

Nelson acknowledges that under the best timetable, the new rules won’t take effect until Sept. 8 at the earliest and thereby miss some of the 2013 harvest.

Decision driver

Driving the commission’s latest action is a ruling from Portra in the Anderson Seed case. He ruled in favor of dairyman Ray Martinmaas, of Orient, S.D., one of the many farmers owed a total of $2.6 million by Anderson Seed.

The only money that went back to farmers came from a $100,000 security

FRED HAAR WAGNER

888-384-4580 605-384-4580

bond that Anderson Seed had posted with the PUC as part of its South Dakota license.

Martinmaas lost $47,000. The PUC originally found that Martinmaas shouldn’t share in proceeds from the security bond that Anderson Seed had posted because he had engaged in a voluntary credit sale. The bond didn’t apply to voluntary credit sales.

But the judge said Martinmaas didn’t actually have a voluntary credit sale agreement with Anderson Seed. The contract was signed by an Anderson Seed official, but Martinmaas hadn’t signed it. The judge ruled it had to be signed by both sides to be valid.

The South Dakota Grain and Feed Association asked the PUC to waive a portion of the commission’s rules so that in the future, only the buyer would need to sign the agreement.

The commission voted 3-0 to reject the waiver request because it would have left sellers with less protection.

The commission decided to open the new docket to consider what could be done instead.

The grain and feed association has proposed a rule that would give farmers and other sellers two days to object to a signed contract from a buyer.

That will be one of two topics in the new PUC docket.

The other topic was the revelation June 4 by the association’s president, Jerry Cope, of Dakota Mill and Grain in

Rapid City, that the PUC’s grain-warehouse division doesn’t follow a standard method to determine prices for voluntary credit agreements.

The division’s inspectors look at the agreements as part of determining a warehouse’s financial soundness.

The division’s director, Jim Mehlhaff, acknowledges that Cope’s general statement was true. Mehlhaff says some things that have been done in recent months for determining those prices previously weren’t allowed.

Mehlhaff says there isn’t anything in state law or PUC rules addressing what should be done.

“We’re in fast current on this because there is no statute or rule that directs exactly where you go,” Mehlhaff said.

The judge’s ruling opened conflicts on timing and pricing of grain, according to Cope.

“If we have to wait until the farmer actually comes in the door to sign the contract, they’re at risk. We’re at risk,” Cope says.

The only time there is a problem is when the farmer chooses not to sign a contract, according to commissioner Nelson.

Nelson says there is “a much-heightened urgency” until Sept. 8 for farmers to sign contracts.

In general, farmers need to be sent a contract, have an opportunity to reject it and ultimately still have a signed contract, he says.

In ND oil country, farmers frustrated by dust, chemicals n

Recent rains won’t solve the problem

By Katherine Grandstrand

Forum News Service

DICKINSON, N.D. — Western North Dakota has been getting a big splash of Mother Nature’s dust control — rain — but that doesn’t mean it won’t be an issue when the rain stops and the prairie dries.

When harvesting his fields last fall, Mike Schollmeyer noticed his yield sensor dropping the closer he got to oil field roads on his property.

“My combine has a pretty nice yield monitor and computer system in it, and it lets me know exactly where my fields are doing well and where they need improvement,” the Dunn County farmer says. “Green is excellent yield and red is pretty poor yield. And you can see that change from green to red as you get closer to that road.”

While there is a slight drop in yield near the edge of a field caused by higher tractor traffic, it’s nothing compared with that caused by scoria dust coming up off the road.

“This is just a dust issue,” Schollmeyer says.

But he noticed the biggest impact when the wells were being fracked — with an average 2,500 trucks driving down a road to complete the process.

Once the exploration phase is complete, the truck traffic, and therefore major dust issues, drop dramatically.

“I can document that we do have an economic loss because of this,” Schollmeyer says. “Really, the question is, ‘Who’s paying for it?’ It’s the farmer that has to pay for it. And if you have the misfortune of having a road going through your property, and that road is servicing two or three or four wells, you can have 10,000 trucks in a season going down one of these roads.”

In neighboring McKenzie County, a place hit even harder by oil exploration, the county has budgeted $3.5 million for dust control, Operations Engineer Mike Dollinger says.

“There’s lots of dust,” Dollinger says.

“Most of the majority of it is due to oil — it’s the heavy truck traffic.”

The dust — and the budget item —

weren’t there five years ago, Dollinger says.

The same goes for Dunn County’s dust control, which is budgeted for $2 million this year, County Auditor Tracey Dolezal says.

“It affects everything,” Dollinger says. “It affects the way the crops grow; the crops that are within a quarter- to half-mile of the roads. It’s in the houses, it’s everywhere.”

In Dunn County, Oxy and Marathon Oil regularly have representatives at county commission meetings, Dolezal says.

Financially, oil companies aren’t directly supporting dust control efforts in McKenzie County, Dollinger says.

“The oil companies are being taxed,” Dollinger says. “And they figure their taxes are what should come back to us.”

McKenzie County is expected to get $32.5 million back in oil impact funds.

It’s not just the impact from dust that worries Schollmeyer. He has a few wells on his land, and oil companies spray the pads with sterilant, which kills all plant life trying to grow on the scoria.

“If you get a drenching rain — if you get an inch of rain in 10 minutes — that scoria will actually run off into your field and then get deposited in your field,” Schollmeyer says. “Now your field is contaminated with a sterilant.”

He’s had the Environmental Protection Agency out to check the soil, but has had issues proving the contamination came from the oil pads.

“I don’t own the mineral (rights), but I do own the surface and basically, you can’t stop them from drilling, they can drill whether you want them to or not, but at least you should be able to tell them what kind of chemicals they can spray on your land,” Schollmeyer says.

“The oil companies can spray anything they want, even though it’s your property.”

If the companies used agricultural herbicides, such as Roundup, the impact wouldn’t be as devastating, Schollmeyer says.

“If they spray sterilants year after year after year on an oil site, how do they plan on putting that ground back in production 25 years from now?”

Schollmeyer asks.
