Upwards of 70percent of

Minnesota landown-ers have no idea what

the buffer law says andwhat they need to do about

it, according to farm drainageattorney Kurt Deter, of Rinke-

Noonan in St. Cloud, Minn.Deter has been traveling the state

talking buffers to offer some clarity.“It’s the law,” he said. “We need to

deal with it and hopefully make itsomething of a positive.”While Deter expects litigation to better

define the law and make minor changes, hesaid the law isn’t going away. The clock isticking, however, with buffers required onpublic waters by November 2017 and publicditches by November 2018.

On Aug. 13, nearly 200 landowners, county com-missioners, watershed districts, farmers and environ-mentalists attended an agricultural drainage workshop

in Mankato, Minn. The meeting was sponsored in part bythe I+S Group, a Mankato-based engineering, architecture

and environmental planning firm.Both landowners and representatives from watershed districts

expressed concern over the implementation, which is a work in progress.“It’s all a good idea, but to get it to work is

the problem,” said Lee Johnson of St. Peter,Minn., a field representative for MinnesotaFarmer’s Union.

There’s much chatter these days aboutour crops. Record yields appear to be in themaking across the board for corn, soybeansand sugar beets. That was already accom-plished with the sweet corn and peas.

Even though I’m an Iowa immigrant Ibelieve Minnesota’s bushel-per-acre yieldwill eclipse our neighbors to the south thisyear. It happened once before — back in2006 Minnesota’s average yield was 174bu./acre; Iowa’s was 173 bu./acre. I believe185 bu./acre or better could happen this year.

This truly has been an incredible sum-mer. The “super summer” talk was pre-dominant at small town celebrationsacross rural Minnesota and Iowa nearlyevery weekend. About 3,200 folks showed up for thefree sweet corn feed at Olivia, Minn.’s July 25 CornCapital Days. Free sweet corn courtesy of MinnesotaCorn Growers and Farm Bureau’s free breakfastattracted hundreds to Farmfest Aug. 4-6.

Our thanks to the many who stopped to say hello atThe Land booth there.As I talked with exhibitors, themoney squeeze in agriculture was very evident this year.

Here in my neck of the woods, there was a greatretirement event Aug. 11 for one of the guys thathelped make Olivia the Corn Capital. Jim Boersma— “Mr. Pioneer” for the past 35 years across south-ern Minnesota — officially retired. Knowing Jim as Ido, however, very likely he’ll still be handling ques-

tions from his corn friends.And now the state’s great 10-day get-

together has begun. The Minnesota StateFair started Aug. 27; hope you can attendand enjoy.

Have you noticed that “poop power” ismaking news? We’re talking about anaero-bic digesters processing livestock manureto produce methane, and a few morebyproducts of value. I’m not suggestingthat with 20-plus candidates vying to

become the next President of the UnitedStates we’re likely viewing considerablepoop power the next several months.

Being respectable should be inherent when presiden-tial candidates are on display. However, politics byits very nature does not always deal in respectability.

This following letter struck me as being particu-larly relevant. Simon Black is the writer. He dwellsin the investment world. He’s directly to-the-point onissues facing America. No, you won’t necessarily likewhat you are reading, but history has a remarkableway of smacking us in the face. So please read on...

Johnny Cash never played Farmfest, saysMarlyn Buss. Responding to Marie Wood’s Aug. 14“Land Minds” column in which a reader reportedonce seeing The Man in Black at the famous farmshow, Buss called baloney.

If anyboy would know, it’s Buss, who owned andoperated Farmfest for 16 years. He purchased theFarmfest name in 1977 and revived the event onhis father’s farm east of Lake Crystal in 1982,transforming it into an ag trade show. Buss soldFarmfest in 1997.

In an e-mail to The Land, he noted that he

exhibited at the 1972 and 1976 events. Bussclaims that from 1982 to the present year, he hasonly missed one day of Farmfest. “Otherwise, Ihave been to every one, each day,” he wrote.

Buss said he understands that memory fails so hechecked the Johnny Cash website — Farmfest wasnot on his list of live performances, although he didplay the Minnesota State Fair in ’76. Buss isabsolutely certain the country music legend (whodied in 2003) hadn’t performed at Farmfest under hiswatch because he never wrote a check out to Cash.

Buss: Cash never played Farmfest

LAND MINDS

By Dick Hagen

On Aug. 14, the U.S. Court of Appealsfor the District of Columbia gave mem-bers of the National Pork ProducersCouncil and the farmer-directors of thecheckoff-collecting National Pork Boardone more reason to loathe the HumaneSociety of the United States.

In a terse, 11-page order, Circuit JudgeCornelia T. Pillard lit the blowtorch on along-smoldering lawsuit that promisesto set the NPPC and NPB’s hair on fire:

“The plaintiffs,” wrote Pillard, theHumane Society, the Iowa Citizens forCommunity Improvement, and a porkproducer named Harvey Dillenburg,“claim that the National Pork Boardhas misappropriated millions of dollars from a fundfor pork promotion... The plaintiffs filed suit in fed-eral district court and the court dismissed theirclaim for lack of standing. We reverse.”

Those final two words promise to open the door on oneof the sweetest “sweetheart deals” ever pulled off in thedeeply checkered history of federal commodity checkoffs.

This deal, laid out in the original, 2012 HSUS suit,noted Pillard, began “In 2006, (when) the (checkoff)Board, with the approval of the Secretary of theDepartment of Agriculture, bought four trademarkswith the slogan Pork: The Other White Meat from theNational Pork Producers Council… for $60 million.”

It was a sugar-soaked deal (as noted in this space atthe time) because the checkoff ’s Board already, in1986, had spent $4.5 million for the development andimplementation of the Other White Meat slogan. Thatcash, however, had flowed through the Board’s chief

contractor, the NPPC, to the advertisingagency, Bozell, that did the creative work.

In Aug. 1987, NPPC filed a trademarkapplication for the slogan despite federal

checkoff language that, according to theHSUS lawsuit, “dictates that trademarksdeveloped with checkoff funds shall belong

to the United States Government…” Law or no law,NPPC listed “itself as owner of the mark.”

Then, for nearly 20 years, Pork: The Other WhiteMeat “continued to be the Board’s primary advertisingmessage each year… through the 2006 purchase date.All… was paid for entirely from producer assessments,”or checkoff dollars. In between, however, a 1999 USDAOffice of Inspector General report concluded that thecheckoff Board had “relinquished too much authority”to its hired hand, the NPPC. The OIG recommended aseparation of the checkoff Board and the NPPC.

Shortly thereafter, hog farmers, distrustful of bothgroups, voted in a national referendum to kill thecheckoff. The incoming Bush Administration’s newUSDA boss, Ann Veneman, however, negotiated adeal to separate the Board and the NPPC and life forboth went on despite the producer vote.

A key part of the Veneman deal gave the Board“most trademarks and property ownership” devel-

oped under contract except for —you guessed it — The Other WhiteMeat slogan. It was licensed byNPPC to the Board “at the rate ofone dollar per year.”

By 2004, though, the Board andNPPC had a new deal in place thatpaid the NPPC $818,000 per yearfor the trademark, not $1. The

Board’s boss at the time, Steve Meyer, “wrote thatthe increase would ‘allow the NPPC to get themoney they need for the next four years.’”

In 2006, that fee became $3 million per year for 20years when the Board agreed to purchase the trade-mark from the NPPC. In 2011, however, the Boardshelved The Other White Meat campaign (for theuninspiring Pork: Be Inspired) but the $3 millionannual payments continued.

For what?According to the initial, 2012 lawsuit filed by

OPINION

HAGEN, from pg. 2Agasoline alone was responsible for over15 percent of their 1933 tax revenue.

What’s curious is that the SenateFinance Committee issued a report the

following year stating that the federalgasoline tax should be repealed. Butthat never happened. Instead it went up.

Under President Eisenhower, the taxincreased to three cents per gallon.

Under Reagan, nine cents.It’s risen steadily throughthe years to a level of 18.4cents for every gallon of unleaded fuel,and 24.4 cents per gallon of diesel.

All of this tax revenue is supposed togo to the Federal Highway Trust Fund,something established back in the1950s to finance the care and mainte-nance of the nation’s highways. Andnow it, too, is insolvent.

Earlier I told you about Social Security’sDisability Insurance Trust Fund, whichwill become insolvent in a matter of months.The DI problem (just like the rest of SocialSecurity) has been a long time coming.

But rather than form some meaning-ful solution, Congress instead opted tocommit financial fraud by comminglingDI monies together with the other SocialSecurity funds. Now comes the HighwayTrust Fund. The difference between DIand the Highway Trust fund is that thisone won’t be insolvent in a matter ofyears or months. Their own data showsthat it may very well be toast… today.

Once again, Congress to the rescue.Having waited until literally the lastminute, their solution is... keep on wait-ing... kick the can down the road. Con-gress July 31 passed a 90-day stay ofexecution for the Highway Trust Fund,which only delays the inevitable.

Over the next three months they’ll sitdown to the task of figuring out who tosteal from. They’re either going to raisetaxes on you. Or they’ll raise taxes onsomeone else, the costs of which willultimately be passed on to you. Or sim-ply default on their obligations to theresidents of the United States to main-tain the federal highway system.

None of this should come as a surprise.

This is what happens whennations go bankrupt: one by

one, its major institutionsfall into insolvency. Today it’s the High-way Fund. Tomorrow it’ll be the PensionBenefit Guarantee Corporation and theUnited States Postal Service. Then it’llbe Social Security and Medicare. Thenthe Federal Reserve. And eventually it’llbe the United States government itself.

The signs are everywhere — every sin-gle one of these hallowed institutions isflat broke. It’s no longer some wildassertion to say that. Their own finan-cial statements show that they’re insol-vent. And it’s not hard to figure outwhat happens down the road.

Bankrupt governments invariablyresort to plundering the wealth of theircitizens. Inflation. Higher taxes. Confis-cation of assets. Indebting unborn gen-erations. And defaulting on the benefitspromises they made to voters.

Until tomorrow, Simon Black,Founder, SovereignMan.com

Tough language from Mr. Black.Those of us in the senior citizen cate-gory very likely agree. Our concern isabout our grandchildren. With an $18trillion debt already hanging on each ofus what is the reality of America’sfuture? Very likely our great country’spresidential candidates will share someanswers. But there is a significant dif-ference between answers and solutions.

Even though you’re not enjoying yourcommodity prices, do enjoy your har-vest. For many your combine monitorswill be displaying yield data the high-est you’ve ever seen.

OPINION

GUEBERT, from pg. 3A

HSUS, the money was simply “checkoffexpenditures being used to furtherNPPC programs that are intended toinfluence legislation and governmentpolicy which constitute prohibited usesunder” the federal laws that imple-mented the checkoff in 1986.

The Aug. 14 appeals court rulingmeans the 2012 HSUS suit will pro-ceed and USDA will be forced to pro-duce a record of what happened underits administrative watch. That will beembarrassing.

It could also prove embarrassing forfederally chartered checkoffs, many ofwhich resemble government-mandated,non-refundable slush funds used byBig Ag to promote Big Ag.

Little wonder, then, why Big Meathates the Humane Society; it’s shininglights into corners that most in U.S.agriculture, often even USDA, wantkept dark.

Shiny grain bins dot the landscapeof rural America. Theyrepresent the bounty ofa good harvest but theycan quickly become atomb when a farmerdoesn’t take propersafety precautionsbefore entering a bin.

The very nature offarming — workingunder pressure in poten-tially hazardous situa-tions — has made the industry one ofthe most dangerous in the nation.Even well-trained, conscientiousworkers can fall victim to grain binhazards.

Studies have determined that anadult in a bin of grain can be engulfedin just five seconds, and completelysubmerged in flowing grain in 60 sec-onds. More than half of grain engulf-

ments result in death.A Purdue University study revealed

that a record number of51 grain entrapmentsoccurred in 2010, but thenumber declined slightlyover the next two years.Volunteer fire and rescueunits, often the first andonly line of defense,respond quickly when theurgent call comes tothem. Unless they haveproper equipment, how-ever, and advanced train-

ing to use the equipment, they maywaste costly time or even fail to savethe trapped individual.

Since they are often manned by vol-unteers, fire and rescue squads dependon outside resources to provide fundsfor the equipment necessary to facili-tate the rescue. Agriculture-relatedbusinesses frequently have moneysavailable for safety equipment.

GrantsDuPont Pioneer, producer of hybrid

corn since 1926, has established agrant program to benefit its customers’communities. First responders and firedepartment rescue squads workthrough sales reps for grant money topurchase needed equipment such asgrain rescue tubes and augers.

“We have given close to $100,000 inthe Midwest to fire departments forrescue equipment,” said Joe Martin,communications manager withDuPont Pioneer in Mankato, Minn.

Martin listed rescue accessoriesincluding ropes, grass fire equipmentand water rescue equipment pur-chased with Pioneer grant funds byworking with a local Pioneer seed rep-resentative and the contact individualfor the fire department. After the res-cue department completes a question-naire, the seed dealer submits the doc-ument to the appropriate office.

Meadowland, a southwestern Min-

nesota elevator co-op, is also willing toprovide funds to purchase fire/rescueequipment.

“In the past few years we’ve helpedthe majority of towns around us,” saidJohn Valentin, Meadowland managerin Lamberton.

He went on to say that the co-opdonates to area hospitals, schools, andambulances as well as fire departments.

“They’re important to our members,”Valentin said.

Since 2001, the AgStar Fund forRural America has donated more than$5 million to improvements in ourrural areas. Grant recipients canreceive up to $10,000 for projects thatfulfill the fund’s mission.

In a press release, John Monson,chair of the AgStar Fund’s Board ofDirectors, noted that “through theFund for Rural America, we are able to

Grain bin rescue tubes must be light-weight, and easy to put together anddismantle. The Westbrook, Minn., firedepartment purchased a rescue tubefrom Gingway Products with a Pioneergrant through local seed dealer MikeHaas.

Having the rescue tube and augerpacked in the rescue vehicle is similarto an insurance policy — you’re glad to

have it, but you hope it’s never used.The Westbrook squad plans to use

Meadowland funds topurchase necessaryaccessories for therescue tube, such as aharness, ropes andother equipment tofacilitate a bin res-cue.

Another bin rescuesystem, the RES-QTube, is available

through GSI, the largest manufacturerof commercial grain bins. This device islightweight and simple to use by keep-ing the grain from applying too muchpressure on the trapped person.

In the ag industry, it’s important tomany companies to protect their cus-tomers and clients. One way to achievethat goal is to fund fire and rescueteams who are on call when an acci-dent occurs on an area farm. Talking toother rescue groups or searching theinternet will surface numerous sourcesof funding for groups who meet thecompany’s requirement. ❖

Inviting the public out to thefarm is a popular way to show peo-ple how food is grown and pro-duced. That’s why on Aug. 1, anagritourism law went into effect inMinnesota. The law provides liabil-ity protection for farmers who hostBreakfast on the Farm, grapestomps, dairy days, you-pick-fruit, pumpkin patchvisits, farm-to-table events and more.

With more people visiting farms, farmers assumemore risk and the possibility of lawsuits forinjuries. For example, walking on farm land cancause a minor injury such as a twisted ankle, or amajor injury such as a broken hip.

The new statute states that an agritourism pro-fessional is not liable for injury, damage, or death ofa participant resulting from the inherent dangers offarming, ranching, winemaking and other agri-tourism activities.

Minnesota State Senator VickiJensen, DFL-Owatonna, was a co-author on the Senate bill. She is alsoan independent insurance agent.She explained that farmers can pur-chase extra coverage when theyhold events.

“This is that protection that youdon’t need extra insurance to partic-ipate in an agritourism activity,”

Jensen said.This is a signal to the agricultural community that

we want them to let people experience what happenson a farm firsthand, she said — the way they growcrops and care for their animals.

“The hope for it is that it lessens the anxiety forlandowners if they want to participate,” said Jensen.

Farmers still need liability insurance, she said, andthe agritourism law will not offer protection in inci-dents of gross negligence or willful or wanton disre-gard for safety.

Farmers also will not be protected if they haveknowledge of a dangerous condition or animal or ifthey intentionally injure a participant.

Farm groups across Minnesota supported the bill— Renewing the Countryside, Minnesota Grown,Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation and MinnesotaFarmers Union. The Minnesota Department of Agri-culture and the commodity groups were in favor, aswell.

Wisconsin, North Dakota and South Dakotaalready have agritourism liability laws on the books.Signs

To be protected from lawsuits, farmers must post awarning sign so visitors understand the risks of agri-tourism. The exact verbage is not mandated.

Thom Petersen, government relations director ofMinnesota Farmers Union, is spreading the wordabout the new law and covering the topic in countymeetings. Members have been asking questionsabout the signs.

AGRITOURISM, from pg. 8AThe signs need to warn people that they are on a

farm and there are risks to a working farm, he said.Petersen expects the agritourism sign to be similar

to the one he posts on the barn door of his horsefarm. The signs identifies Minnesota Statute604A.12 stating that sponsors of livestock activitiesare not liable for the injury or death of a participantor spectator arising from the inherent risk of live-stock activities. The inherent risks, including kick-ing, biting or spooking, are listed.

Eventually signs like this for agritourism will beavailable through a farm group or other entity, hesaid.

Even with the law, Petersen advised discussing lia-bility insurance for on-farm events with your insur-ance agent.

“Keep your insurance agent in the loop,” he said.“The last thing a lot of people do is check with theirinsurance company.”

Going forward, the agritourism law should helpreduce the price of event coverage because farmershave shown a regard for safety, posted a sign and fol-lowed the law, said Petersen.Dairies

Bob Lefebvre, executive director of the MinnesotaMilk Producers Association, supported the bill for acouple reasons.

“From a dairy farmer’s perspective,” he said, “welike to bring people on the farm so they can see howwe care for the animal and the environment whilewe produce wholesome quality milk. It helps to elim-inate one of the barriers for on-farm value-addedenterprises.”

One such value-added enterprise is RedheadCreamery in Brooten, Minn. Alise and LucasSjostrom, with Alise’s parents, own the creamerywhere Alise makes artisan cheese. The creamery islocated on the family dairy called Jer-Lindy Farms.

“I was glad to see it pass,” Lucas Sjostrom said.“Every extra piece of protection for a business likeours is great.”Opens the barn door

Dawn Lanning operates HHH Ranch in Hastings,Minn. The triple H stands for Hastings Huskies andHorses, which has 35 horses and 40 dogs. From herstables, she offers trail rides, youth camps and horseboarding. With her Huskies, she offers dog sled ridesto individuals, families, and even large groups. Manyof her efforts include educational programs.

Lanning supported the agritourism bill eventhough the law doesn’t directly help her operation.

“Any time you help a farmer diversify, it’s going tohelp their bottom line,” said Lanning. “This bill washuge in making it easier for farmers to do that.”

Lanning also plans to create community sustainedagriculture on her property. To sell shares, market-ing is focused on inviting people out to the farm. You-pick events are one popular way to market CSAs.

Indirectly, the new law could help Lanning inaccessing funding for her ranch. While horses are

large livestock, her stable is not considered a farm.The U.S. Department of Agriculture defines farmsas raising anything that you can eat, she explained.

“It opens the door to recognition of services as anagricultural product,” said Lanning. “It’s setting aprecedent.”

Lanning reasoned that if ag-related services arebeing recognized then more funding programs maybe offered through the USDA and Farm ServiceAgency.

Lanning doesn’t agree with the argument thathorses aren’t part of the ag community. She goesthrough 750 pounds of feed a week bought from thelocal grain elevator, 800 pounds of hay per daybought from local farmers, and 60 pounds of beefper day bought from local farmers.

“We support it,” she said, “but we are not part ofthe ag community?”

In addition, the equine liability law in Minnesotaonly covers non-profits. However, the new agri-tourism law protects for-profit businesses, said Lan-ning.

So next year, the horse industry can lobby tochange the equine liability law to cover for-profitbusinesses the way the new agritourism law does,she said. ❖

BUFFERS, from pg. 1ABuffer law

Scientific research shows buffers improve waterquality, said John Jaschke, executive director of theMinnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources.

The law requires a 50-foot average buffer widthwith a 30-foot minimum width on public waters anda 16.5 foot (one rod) width on public ditches.

Public ditches run through private farm land.Considerable discussion went into the size of bufferstrips.

“You want to use the smallest amount of land youcan to do the most public benefit,” he said.

Buffers must be perennial vegetation, Jaschkenoted, but they can be hayed, grazed or driven on.

The one-rod requirement will also take effect onprivate ditches that are within the benefited area ofa public drainage system, said Deter.

Soil and Water Conservation Districts will stillplay a prominent role in working with landownersto get buffers installed. Landowners also maychoose an alternative practice from a list on theBWSR website, said Jaschke.

“Buffers are an important water quality practice,”said Jaschke. “They aren’t the only one.”

Both Jaschke and Deter said the timeline andresponsibility falls on landowners.

Pat Duncanson, a corn, soybean and livestock pro-ducer from Mapleton, Minn., is involved in the LeSueur River Watershed Network. He questionedwhether the state would see a measurable impacton water quality after so much private and publicmoney and effort has been put into buffer strips, ata time when ag producers are feeling pressure fromconsumers regarding farming practices.

“We have a window in the next five years to dothings that we know really have an impact on ourriver,” said Duncanson. “The local watersheds arewhere the rubber hits the road. It’s one of those localissues that becomes global.”

Jaschke’s advice to local watershed districts: “If abuffer isn’t the right practice for that place, then dosomething that’s better or equivalent to, and then Ithink we will see measurable gains.”

Jaschke said he would take the suggestion to putmechanisms in place to measure water qualityprogress.Map

The first step is that by July 2016 the MinnesotaDepartment of Natural Resources plans to completean analysis and prepare a map of where buffers arerequired. In some places these lines are clear, but notso in other places, said Jaschke.

“A lot of landowners don’t know where buffers arerequired on their property,” he said.

DNR may need help from drainage authorities andSWCDs to map out the benefited area of a publicdrainage system, he noted.

“Whatever it takes so the DNR can have a clearline of where that benefited area is,” said Jaschke,“because then the ditches within it, both public andprivate, are going to be subject to that one rod.”

As a ditch lawyer, Deter said his No. 1 piece ofadvice for landowners is to review the DNR map.

“When the DNR map comes out, you need to studythat map,” he said. “Those private ditches will bepart of this map.”

In addition, SWCDs can identify waters that needbuffers or alternative practices.

As far as financial assistance for buffers, Jaschkesaid the best bet is still the Conservation ReserveProgram and Continuous CRP, as well as Reinvest inMinnesota buffer easements. According to the BWSRwebsite, landowners may be eligible for compensa-tion from the drainage authority.

Exemptions to the buffer law include land alreadyenrolled in CRP, roads and other activities. Buffers arenot required on waterfront property to allow access,which Deter said he understands within reason.

“To want to buffer everything and then put fertil-izer right down to the lake so you can have a greengrass,” said Deter. “That’s eventually going to have tobe addressed.”

Deter presented a list of possible impacts of thelaw, which include increased tiling to replace smallerditches, redistribution of property taxes and redeter-mination of benefits.Compliance

The SWCD is responsible for notifying the countyor watershed district if a landowner is not in compli-ance. Then the county or watershed district mustprovide the landowner with a list of correctiveactions and a timeline to meet the requirements,said Deter.

“They (SWCDs) are not the enforcement, they aresimply the reporters,” said Deter.

If the landowner doesn’t comply, then a fine of $500may be issued. The landowner will still have toinstall the buffer.

Jaschke cautioned that the fine can be reissuedmultiple times and Deter advised compliance overpaying the fine.

While enforcing the law is local, the state maywithhold funding from SWCDs, counties or water-shed districts should they fail to enforce compliance,explained Deter. ❖

Pat Duncanson

By DICK HAGENThe Land Staff Writer

The annual Minnesota StateCattlemen’s Summer Beef tourincluded a stop at one of thestate’s best-known beef produc-ers — Schiefelbein Farms inKimball, Minn.

This family operation wasstarted in 1955 by FrankSchiefelbein. Now 60 years later withthe addition of nine sons, eight daugh-ters-in-law, 32 grandchildren, andmultiple great-grandchildren, theoperation continues to grow.

Today Schiefelbein Farms runs morethan 1,000 registered females, farms4,600 acres and feeds out 7,500 head of

cattle. Here’s a Q & A sessionwith family elder, DonSchiefelbein.

Q: From where did yourfamily originate?

Schiefelbein: From thePrussia area of Europe datingback to when the Catholicswere trying to get away to

avoid being persecuted. The Schiefel-bein clan came to America at the turnof the century. They found variouslocations across America to start theirnew lives. My grandfather, for exam-ple, was from Oklahoma City beforeheading up here to Minnesota.

Q: You are four generations deepin beef production. What’s your

take on the beef industry today?Schiefelbein: These are relatively

good times. However as you looktowards the future, you can see usbecoming a smaller and smallerminority. As legislators make laws andagencies write rules and regulations,my concern is that we won’t be pro-active enough to maintain our stake inthis industry.

Q: But as you get fewer produc-ers you tend to get bigger, so is themarket being threatened?

Schiefelbein: No, but what is hap-

pening is that the “big farmer” imageis being created amongst the city peo-ple. With that image comes their con-cern for regulating these big boys. Ifthey knew our business perhaps regu-lations could be fair and tolerable, butunfortunately they are writing rulesabout an industry they know little ornothing about.

Q: Are legislators trying to stayinformed about beef issues?

Schiefelbein: Perhaps a few. Wehad two state legislators plus the ag

SCHIEFELBEIN, from pg. 11Arep for Senator Al Franken on the previous bus thatstopped this morning. They pulled me aside andsaid, “Don, we need to get urban legislators outhere. If they saw this they would have a much dif-ferent opinion about how agriculture really works.”

Q: You get accused of becoming one of those“big boys” in this business. How do you handle

that charge?Schiefelbein: Yes, we’re getting bigger and

proudly so. But we’re also getting more and moreSchiefelbeins involved in this total operation so weneed to get bigger. We have no hired help. We arecompletely family farmed. We’re right at 60 familymembers currently.

Q: Do you see Schiefelbein Farms continuing

to grow?Schiefelbein: Well, we’re good Catholics so per-

haps that would be a safe prediction. So far we’veproven to create enough new Schiefelbeins to keepup with the growing cattle business.

Q: What’s your take on Country of OriginLabeling?

Schiefelbein: I think this is good, but it needs tobe done by the private sector. I think any time wemandate government involvement we ask for some-thing that the end result may disappoint us. Ibelieve there is value in knowing where your foodcomes from. That’s now a steady message from con-sumers. But let enterprising individuals figure outhow to brand it, how to merchandise it and how tolabel it. And where that happens is where the dollarsmake sense. We know that if the local retailerbelieves American beef has value, they will do it.That’s what capitalism is all about. We just want tomake certain there aren’t constraints so people cando what is in the best interests of merchandisingtheir products.

Q: You have a well-known meat retailer righthere in Kimball. Is COOL even an issue withKimball Meats?

Schiefelbein: No, it’s not. What they promote is

Schiefelbein: Labeling should be industry-led

SCHIEFELBEIN, from pg. 12Athe locally grown market and that’s the trend that’spicking up momentum, not only across Minnesotabut across the nation. So we’re arguing about some-thing that’s almost already antiquated in terms ofwhere the industry is heading.

Q: Let’s talk genetics. Schiefelbein Farms isbig on traits that impact your bottom line.What’s ahead?

Schiefelbein: The progress being made in beefgenetics is incredible. Now we are producing folli-cles out of animals as young as three months of age.The Polzin Embryo Center, one of the stops on thisyear’s tour, is doing technology so when heifers areonly one year old, they’re having calves. This rapidgeneration turnover is allowing us to makeimprovements at dramatic increases from formertimes.

Q: What’s the impact for the consumer whobuys your product?

Schiefelbein: It should mean improvements inall areas of carcass quality, whether it be taste, ten-derness, palatability, healthfulness — and of courseimportant to the cattle feeder is faster growth andimproved feed efficiency, too. Plus healthier crittersin the feed lots.

Q: What’s the turnover rate of females inyour cow herd?

Schiefelbein: We get six to eight calves per cowbut because the newer genetics are so much more

impressive, right now our turnover is even quicker.We have a simple philosophy when it comes to ourcows. They either work for us or they work forMcDonald’s. We do not tolerate open cows, cows withan attitude, cows that don’t raise a calf every year orcows that don’t wean a high percentage of theirweight. It’s as simple as that. I look at my dad’shobby of antique farm equipment and the Claus for-age chopper we use today as an example of the amaz-ing progress both in farm equipment and beef genet-ics now taking place.

Q: So you’re not bashful about culling?Schiefelbein: With today’s genetics rapid culling

is the new ballgame. Extreme genetic diversity likeeasy-calving heifers that produce super fast growingoffspring, or animals with incredible amounts ofinternal marbling but very little outside fat — theseare the genetic antagonism we’re breaking likenever before.

We’re working with Polzin Embryo Center virtu-ally on a day-by-day basis. Embryo transfer isalready big in the beef industry and will only get big-ger. We just purchased a facility that Polzins areleasing from us to take their operation to the nextlevel. They mostly deal in females; the male part ofthis business we do through established studs wherethey buy our genetics (our young bulls) and propa-gate them in mass quantities. Everything we do isabout genetic improvement in genes.

There used to be a time when we sold beef cattle,then we switched into selling only Angus beef cattle,

now we’re selling GenX. We’re selling genes — theoutcomes of what we expect things to do.

Q: So black critters won’t necessarily domi-nate the cattle business?

Schiefelbein: It’s all about genes. If they have thegenetic makeup to compete with what the Blacks aredoing today, they will win regardless the color oftheir hair coat or their hide. In our game, our con-cern is with customers one, two and three. We don’tcare the color or the label. We want to provide thegenes that will make them the most money. We havea strong contingency of SimAngus cattle that wemerchandise. We’re selling about 100 bulls yearlyfrom that blood line. Sometimes the Simmentalbrings the genetics we need to make the Angus evenbetter. We DNA test every young animal. In essencewhat that does is give us a proof as if that animalhas already had 10 to 12 calves. What we are doing isselling young animals with incredible geneticmakeup that have the accuracy of an old animal.

Q: Is the genetics or the fed cattle the keydriver in your business?

Schiefelbein: The core of our business is seedstock but our gross revenue is much larger on thefeeder side. To make the fed cattle operation work forus, however, is buying feeder calves from cattle thatalready have our genetics. So we know what thefeedlot performance will be when we restock eachyear and that’s what makes fed cattle profitable.

comparisonsAs you prepare for what is hopefully a great har-

vest, you may want to take some time to compareyour numbers to a benchmark in order to achieve apotential competitive advantage.

Three years ago AgStar began putting together anAnnual Grain BenchmarkReport which allows our grainproducer clients to comparethemselves vs. other AgStargrain producer clients. The tableon the next page are some selectgrain industry factors showingthe benchmark averages for 2013and 2014. Also shown areAgStar’s Long-term Sustainabletargets. We use these during dis-cussions with our grain producerclients (representing an opera-tion with at least 185 bu./acreactual production history and165 bu./acre APH).

In a review of the data, what conclusions can wemake? Firstly, the grain industry factors shown donot necessarily guarantee profitability. All of thesegrain factors do, however, translate into howhealthy your operation might be.

Working capital per acre is showing a drop (for thesecond consecutive year) in part due to lower grainprices. You might be getting tired of hearing lendersdiscuss the need for having enough working capital,but having a higher working capital per acre doesallow you the freedom to take advantage of businessopportunities as they arise and enables you toweather periods of lower prices or lower yields. The2015 long-term sustainable target suggests a mini-mum of $250 working capital/acre. Even with the

Grain OutlookNo surprises on crop tour

The following market analysis is for the week end-ing Aug. 21.

CORN — As weeks go, this one was relatively slow.Corn slowly climbed through the middle of the week,but ended the week on a poor note. December cornclosed just 1 3⁄4 cents higher forthe week at $3.77 1⁄4 per busheland traded entirely within lastweek’s range.

News for the agricultural com-munity was thin, despite pic-tures and crop estimates fromthe Midwest Crop Tour. Traderscontinued to sort out fresh cornyield estimates and reconcilethem with the 168.8 bushels peracre the U.S. Department of Agri-culture forecasted last week.Most opinions fall into the cate-gory that believes the AugustUSDA yield will be the highest we see this year.Grower selling has slowed to a trickle which is sup-porting calendar spreads.

After the close on Aug. 21, Pro Farmer released itscrop estimates. Its estimates can differ from the tourresults as organizers consider historical differences,conditions outside the tour and other influences todetermine their numbers. The tour covered sevenstates before ending in Rochester, Minn.

The corn estimates by state versus the AugustUSDA forecast: Ohio 151 vs. 168, Ind. 145 vs. 158, Ill.169 vs. 172, Iowa 181 vs. 183, Minn. 178 vs. 184, Neb.178 vs. 187, and S.D. 160 vs. 160 bu./acre. Pro Farmerpegged the U.S. corn yield at 164.3 bu./acre for a cropof 13.323 billion bushels, assuming normal weather

Livestock AnglesCattle, hogs finish lower

The third week in August was not a very good weekfor livestock prices. Cattle, hogs and feeder cattle allfinished lower and near the week’s lows. Most of thisweakness will be pointed at the Chinese as theydevalued their currency at the beginning of the week.But it appears that was only thecatalyst to start the concern overthe prices for all commodities.

In reality all things point to aslowing global economy which inpart is our own U.S. economy.This is having a direct effect onthe demand for all economies andis in danger of continuing unlessthere is a turnaround in the eco-nomic outlook in all globaleconomies.

Both the futures and the cashcattle markets suffered a sell-offas a result of the Chinese news,losing any positive momentum they had in previousweeks. The supplies of cattle remain rather tight;however, it would now appear that demand willbecome the more important factor in price discovery.With cattle weights well above a year-ago levels, thebeef production is at or near last year’s levels, thesupply of beef has not suffered as much as one wouldhave anticipated. This would help explain the pastseveral cold storage reports that showed more beef instorage than expected.

On Aug. 21, the U.S. Department of Agriculturereleased the Monthly Cattle on Feed Report. Theresults are as follows: On feed 103 percent; Placed inJuly 100 percent; Marketed in July 97 percent. Thereport was interpreted as neutral by the trade. Look-ing forward, more emphasis will be put on demand

SEP’14 OCT NOV DEC JAN’15 FEB MAR APR MAY JUNE JULY AUG

NYSTROM, from pg. 15Athrough September. The AugustUSDA yield was 168.8 bu./acre with acrop of 13.686 billion bushels. I don’tthink anyone was surprised that thetour number was lower than theAugust USDA’s outlook. I wouldn’tlook for the results to have much of animpact on the trading direction.

China indicated they will stockpilecorn for another year. It’s estimatedthey have 100-150 million metric tonsof corn currently in its reserve. Theprogram is designed to support ruralincomes and slow the migration fromthe farm to the city. If China lowers itspurchasing price to growers, the pricethey offer reserve corn at auction willalso decline. It’s expected the statesupport price could fall as much as 20percent. Forecasts for corn and cornsubstitute imports may decline from30 mmt this year to 20 mmt next year.This is not bullish to world prices.

Also, effective Sept. 1 the Chinesegovernment will require moredetailed reporting of sorghum, dried

distillers grains andbarley imports. Is this afirst step in limitingthose imports? Again, this is notfriendly to U.S. prices in the long runas those bushels that would have beenexported will be pushed into ourdomestic feed sector. Dry weather inUkraine was also cited as lending sup-port to the corn market this week. Thecrop there may fall to 21-22 mmt. TheBuenos Aires Grain Exchange floatedthe idea that Argentina’s corn areacould decline by 20 percent this com-ing year due to high seed and fertilizercosts. This could mean a reduction inits crop from 26 mmt this year to 20.8mmt next year. Argentina will beginplanting in September.

Weekly export sales of 11.1 millionbushels for old crop and 22.7 millionbushels for new crop were better thanexpectations. Old crop commitments at1.867 billion surpass the USDA fore-cast of 1.85 billion bushels. New cropsales however, continue to run behindlast year by 39 percent. The USDA isforecasting exports to be unchanged

year on year. New cropcommitments are the

lowest for this time ofyear in the last 10 years. Weeklyethanol production was unchangedthis week at 965,000 barrels per day.Stocks however increased by 100,000barrels to 18.6 million barrels.

SOYBEANS — The action inNovember soybeans was nearly a mir-ror image of the corn market. Soy-beans edged lower throughout theweek as rain increased confidence thatthe USDA yield of 46.9 bu./acre may beachieved. November soybeans set anew contract low at $8.88 per bushel,closing under $9.00 for the first time ofthe contract’s life. The contract hasposted double digit losses in six of thelast nine sessions. November soybeanswere down 27 cents for the week, clos-ing at $8.89 1⁄2 per bushel.

China’s weak equity market and eco-nomic condition casts a shadow overits purchasing power in the short run.China’s purchasing managers’ indexfor August was a weak 47.1 comparedto estimates for 47.7. A number under50 indicates contraction. U.S. exportsfor the 2015-16 marketing year arerunning 46.5 percent behind last yearand are the lowest for this time of yearin seven years. The USDA is predictingyear on year exports to fall 5.5 percent.U.S. soybeans are reportedly competi-tive with South American origins toChina for the October-December timeslot, but thus far we haven’t seen apick up in sales. China’s soybeanstocks at ports are estimated at 6.1mmt, the highest since last September.

Rain around the Corn Belt duringthe last week helped finish the soy-bean crop in good fashion, addingweight and size to the soybeans.

The Pro Farmer crop estimate indi-cated the following yields versus theAugust USDA forecast: Ohio 46.4 vs.

48, Ind. 47.6 vs. 49, Ill. 50.5 vs. 53, Iowa54 vs. 52, Minn. 46 vs. 48, Neb. 55.5 vs.56, and S.D. 47 vs. 45 bu./acre. Its aver-age U.S. overall yield estimate was 46.5bu./acre with a crop of 3.887 billionbushels. The August USDA report used46.9 bu./acre with a crop of 3.916 bil-lion bushels. The Pro Farmer final esti-mate can vary from the tour results ashistorical differences and other factorsare considered by tour organizers. Thereport will be considered bearish.

The better-than-anticipated JulyNOPA crush report did little to stemthe weakness in soybeans. The Julycrush was a monthly record at 145.227million bushels, well above the 141.5million bushel pre-report outlook. Thisis the eighth month this crop year thatmonthly crush numbers were a record.The USDA’s new Fats and Oils crushreport is to be released in October aftermissing the August deadline due topoor data response.

Weekly export sales of soybeans were1.7 million bushels with 28.8 millionfor the 2015-16 marketing year. Oldcrop commitments of 1.865 billionbushels are in line with the USDA’soutlook for 1.825 billion bushels,assuming the usual 60 million bushelsof old crop carried over into new crop.

India’s soybean plantings are at arecord 12 million hectares or 29.6 mil-lion acres, up one million from lastyear. India accounts for 27 percent ofthe total world soybean oil trade and isexpected to import 2.8 mmt of soybeanoil this year. Soybean shipping activityin Brazil is heavier than last year. Asof Aug. 18, there were 82 corn boats inthe cue, up from 40 last year and 80soybean vessels waiting to load versus57 last year. Last year Brazil sur-passed the United States as theworld’s largest exporter of soybeansand was the second biggest exporter ofcorn, behind the United States. ❖

Bean prices edged lower as crop received rain

TEALE, from pg. 15Awhile supplies remain relatively tight.Producers should take market actionunder consideration and protect inven-tories when the opportunity presents.

The hog market seemed to getcaught up in the international eventsthese past few weeks. The export mar-ket has the possibility of slowing dueto the currency events that have takenplace. Not only the devaluation of theChinese currency but also the strengthin the U.S. dollar could have a signifi-cant influence on the export of pork.

With an increasing hog herd andslower demand, this could spell troubleahead for hog prices. The fact that porkis one of the best values in the meatcomplex could aid in keeping the mar-ket from a severe price slide. Demandversus the supply of pork will be thedominant feature in the price discov-ery in the weeks and months ahead.

Because the future market is alreadyat a large discount, producers shouldbe cognizant of this situation and pro-tect inventories as warranted. ❖

Pork exports could slow

LARSON, from pg. 15Apotential for great yields, if prices staylow, will you have enough workingcapital to make it through the leanyears ahead? I am encouraging farm-ers to take the opportunity now torebuild working capital for the future.

A lower land cost per acre doestranslate into profitability. Drivingthis overall cost down continues to bethe No. 1 activity most grain produc-ers are working on for 2016, eitherthrough negotiating land rents orrestructuring land debt to improveworking capital and possibly cashflow. The 2014 average shows theaverage land cost at $233/acre whichis under the sustainable target. Nodoubt there is more work to be donehere. Noting where your total landdebt per owned crop acre is and whereyou and your lender’s comfort level isshould always be a consideration.

One grain industry factor to keep

your eye on is intermediate principal,interest, and equipment lease per acre.There is a correlation between this fac-tor and machinery and vehicle invest-ment per acre. Grain producers haveincreased their investment in machin-ery possibly due to tax management,better technology, and/or lower overalllabor costs, but in the end, the higherinvestment does have an impact onprofitability.

Reviewing your numbers with yourAgStar Financial Services Officer isalways a good idea to determine whereyour competitive advantage is.

It appears highly likelythat many crop producers inMinnesota and northernIowa that are enrolled in thecounty yield-based Ag RiskCoverage farm programchoice on their corn baseacres will earn a significantfarm program payment forthe 2014 crop year. In addi-tion, farm operators in somecounties may also earn anARC-CO payment on soy-bean base acres for the2014 crop year.

At current estimatedmarket year averageprices, it is not likely that producersthat enrolled in the Price Loss Cover-age program will earn a farm programpayment for either corn or soybeans forthe 2014 crop year.

All farm program payments for the2014 crop year will be paid after Oct. 1.

As of Aug. 1, the current U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture estimate for the2014 MYA price for corn is $3.70 perbushel. Based on that MYA price esti-mate, the projected 2014 ARC-CO pay-ment for corn in most Minnesota andNorthern Iowa counties would be atthe maximum payment level. Esti-mated maximum ARC-CO paymentrates in various counties are from $70to just over $80 per corn base acre insouthern Minnesota and northernIowa, from $60 to $70 per corn baseacre in central Minnesota, and slightlyless than that amount in northernMinnesota.

As of Aug. 1, the current USDA esti-mate for the 2014 MYA price for soy-beans is $10.05 per bushel. Based onthat MYA price estimate, the projected2014 ARC-CO payment on soybeanbase acres in Minnesota and northernIowa would range from zero to $50 persoybean base acre. Approximately halfof the counties would likely get either apartial or maximum payment for 2014,depending on the 2014 average countysoybean yield, compared to the five-year average county yield. As a result,producers in one county may receive asignificant 2014 ARC-CO payment ontheir soybean base acres, while produc-ers in the neighboring county mayreceive no payment.

Based on the current 2014 MYA priceestimates of $3.70 per bushel for cornand $10.05 per bushel for soybeans,there would not be a 2014 PLC farmprogram payment for either corn orsoybeans. If the final corn MYA priceon Sept. 30, 2015, drops below $3.70per bushel, there would be a very small

2014 PLC payment on cornbase acres The soybeanMYA price needs to be below$8.40 per bushel before anyPLC payment would occuron soybean base acres.MYA price

The MYA price for a givencrop year is used to calcu-late any potential paymentsfor the PLC, ARC-CO andARC-IC programs. The his-torical MYA prices are also

used to determine the“benchmark revenues”for both the ARC-CO

and ARC-IC programoptions. The MYA price for a givencommodity is not based on the ChicagoBoard of Trade commodity prices, orany specific local or terminal grainprices. The MYA price is the 12-monthnational average price for a commodity,based on the average market pricereceived at the first point of sale byfarm operators across the UnitedStates.

The USDA National AgriculturalStatistics Service collects grain salesdata on a monthly basis, which is then“weighted” at the end of the year, basedon the volume of bushels sold in eachmonth. The 12-month marketing yearfor corn and soybeans begins on Sept. 1in the year that a crop is harvested,and continues until Aug. 31 the follow-ing year. For the 2014 crop year, the 12-month marketing period to determinethe final MYA price was from Sept. 1,2014 through Aug. 31, 2015, with theMYA price finalized on Sept. 30, 2015.

USDA publishes monthly and season-average estimated market prices forvarious commodities, which are avail-able on the FSA farm program website.These average prices are also updatedeach month in the USDA Supply andDemand Report, which is usuallyreleased around the middle of eachmonth. Some universities also updateprojected MYA prices on a monthlybasis for selected crops. Kansas StateUniversity offers one of the bestmonthly updates of MYA prices forcorn, soybeans, and wheat. The websiteis at www.agmanager.info/crops/ insurance/risk_mgt2015 crop year

The 2014 benchmark price for theARC-CO program is $5.29 per bushelfor corn, which will also likely be theARC-CO benchmark price for the 2015crop year. As of Aug. 1, USDA has a pre-liminary MYA price estimate of $3.35-$3.95 per bushel for the 2015 crop year,or an average of $3.65 per bushel. If

corn prices are at that level or lower,there is potential for significant ARC-CO payments again for the 2015 cropyear. The crop marketing year for the2015 crop year for corn and soybeans isSept. 1, 2015 to Aug. 31, 2016.

The big difference with corn baseacres for the 2015 crop year, comparedto 2014, will likely be the final 2015average county yields in Minnesotaand northern Iowa, which will not be

finalized until around March 1, 2016.Similar to soybean base acres for the2014 crop year, final 2015 ARC-COpayments could be highly variablefrom county to county. The paymentlevel will likely depend on how the2015 county average yield compares tothe five-year average benchmarkyield. Many county corn BM yields for2015 will be lower than 2014 BM

THIESSE, from pg. 17Ayields, due to the low county averagecorn yields in 2014. Many of thosesame counties are currently expecting 2015 cornyields that are well above “trend-line” yields.

The 2014 benchmark price for the ARC-CO pro-gram is $12.27 per bushel for soybeans, which willalso likely be the ARC-CO benchmark price for the2015 crop year. As of Aug. 1, USDA has a preliminaryMYA price estimate of $8.40-$9.90 per bushel for the2015 crop year, or an average of $9.15 per bushel. Atthat MYA price level, the potential for receiving apartial or maximum ARC-CO payment on soybeanbase acres for the 2015 crop year would be higherthan for the 2014 crop year. Once again, the finalaverage county soybean yield for 2015, compared tothe five-year BM yield, will be a big factor in poten-tial 2015 ARC-CO payments on soybean base acres.Calculating 2014 ARC-CO payments

I have prepared an information sheet titled “Esti-mating 2014 Corn and Soybean ARC-CO Payments,”which looks at estimating the likelihood of 2014ARC-CO payments for corn and soybeans at various2014 MYA price levels, and various county 2014NASS yield levels, expressed as a “percentage of BMyield”. The information sheet also includes chartsthat list the 2014 BM yield, the 2014 NASS yield,and the “percentage of BM yield” for most counties in

Minnesota and northern Iowa. ThisInformation Sheet helps explain the

difference from county to county forestimated 2014 ARC-CO payments on soybean baseacres, and could provide some early insight on poten-tial 2015 ARC-CO payments. To receive a free copy ofthis information sheet, contact Kent Thiesse [email protected].

The University of Illinois FarmDoc website hasprepared 2014 ARC-CO corn and soybean paymentestimates for nearly every county in the UnitedStates, at various MYA price levels. Following arethe links to that data:

This column was writtenfor the marketing week end-ing Aug. 21.

An association for cooper-ative businesses in Min-nesota and Wisconsin,called the Cooperative Net-work, plans to hold a Fed-eral Milk MarketingOrders Forum on Sept. 24in Bloomington, Minn.,according to a report on theInternational DairyFoods Association web-site. The associationbelieves that Califor-nia’s consideration of a Federal mar-ket order could open the door for addi-tional reforms to the national system.

“With California’s petition and 2016being an election year, we thinkthere’s a good chance the federal milkmarketing orders could soon be opento broader reform,” said David Ward,Cooperative Network director of gov-

ernment relations, who man-ages the association’s dairyprogram.

“We want to be sure ourmilk producers and proces-sors in the Upper Midwestproactively examine the cur-rent system and have theopportunity to offer theirinput to guide any futurechanges.” Several nationaland regional dairy econo-

mists have been invitedto discuss the federalmilk marketing orders

in the Upper Midwest,how the system works for otherregions, what the addition of a Califor-nia order could mean and the processfor changing federal orders.

And, as dairy producers contemplatesignup for the next round of the Mar-gin Protection program, Dairy Herd

Management reports that U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture’s Risk Manage-ment Agency moved a second supple-mental allocation of $1 million to thefederal Livestock Gross Margin forDairy income margin insurance pro-gram, according to Brian Gould, Uni-versity of Wisconsin dairy economist.

Earlier this year, the dairy programexhausted its share of the $20 millionin Fiscal Year 2015 funding designatedfor all USDA-RMA LGM insuranceprograms. In July, RMA allocated $1

million in funds from unused portionsof other LGM livestock programs.About $800,000 of that total was usedduring the July LGM-Dairy salesperiod, according to Gould.

The remaining FY 2015 LGM-Dairysales periods are Aug. 28-29 and Sept.25-26. Contract purchases start at 4:30p.m. Central and must end by 8 p.m.Central the next day. The Septemberoffering is conditional on the availabil-

THIESSE, from pg. 18Ayear (2014-18) farm program choicewas March 31. The farm programchoices were the PLC program, theARC-CO program based on countyyields, and the ARC-IC program basedon individual farm yields.Many producers thought that this wasthe final farm program enrollmenttime, and that this sign-up would auto-matically enroll them in the USDAcommodity farm programs for the2014-18 crop years. However, enroll-ment in the farm program at local FSAoffices is required on an annual basis,in order to be eligible for potential farmprogram payments.

When farm operators enroll in thefarm program for a given year, they willnot be able to change or adjust the five-year farm program option that they

selected for the 2014-18 crop years for agiven crop. For example, if they selectedthe ARC-CO program for corn and thePLC program for soybeans on a farmunit, they are required to keep thosefarm program choices each year from2014 to 2018. However, they mustenroll in the farm program at theirlocal FSA office each year in order to beeligible for farm program payments. Inaddition, producers can not adjust cropbase acres or FSA payment yields atthe time of annual farm programenrollment. The base acres and pay-ment yields were set for the 2014-18crop years during the original farm pro-gram sign-up period, earlier in 2015.

U.S. milk production in the top 23producing states totaled 16.6 billionpounds in July, according to USDA’spreliminary data, up a higher thanexpected 1.2 percent from July 2014.The 50-state July 2015 output, at 17.65billion pounds, was also up 1.2 percent.

July cow numbers totaled 9.32 mil-lion head in the 50 states, up 1,000head from June and 54,000 more thana year ago. Output per cow averaged1,893 pounds, up 17 pounds from Juneand 12 pounds above July 2014.

California continues to lag year agooutput, down 3.3 percent from July2014. The July drop came on a 65pound drop per cow and 1,000 fewercows. Most analysts have blamed thedrought but the Aug. 17 Daily Dairyreport says “A closer look at feed costssuggests that the drought has con-

tributed little to theslowdown in Californiamilk production,” andmakes the case for low milk pricesbeing responsible.

Wisconsin was up 5.3 percent in Julyfollowing a 5.5 percent gain in June.The cooler than normal weatherenabled an 85-pound gain per cow inJuly and there were 9,000 more cowsmilked. The Badger State’s overall milkproduction was revised up 48 millionpounds.

Minnesota was up 4.2 percent on a70-pound gain per cow. South Dakotacontinues to pour it in the tank, up12.3 percent, on a 25- pound gain percow and 9,000 more cows.

Dairy cow culling continued toincrease, according to USDA’s latestLivestock Slaughter report issued Aug.20. The data shows an estimated238,600 dairy cows were slaughteredunder Federal inspection in July, up17,100 head from June and 7,000 head,or 3 percent more than July 2014.Looking at the first seven months of2015, 1.7 million head exited the dairy

business, up 72,500 or4.5 percent from thesame period a year ago.

Fonterra’s pullback in product offeredat the Aug. 18 Global Dairy Trade auc-tion worked as direction reversed dra-matically for the first time in 11 events.The weighted average for all productsoffered jumped 14.8 percent, following a9.3 percent decline in the Aug. 4 event,a 10.7 percent drop July 15, and 5.9percent July 1. And, only two productsoffered showed declines; buttermilkpowder, down 13.8 percent, following a5.1 percent drop last time, and lactosewhich was down 7.8 percent. It was notoffered in the last event.

All other products showed positivemovement, led by anhydrous milkfatup a whopping 26.6 percent, followingan 11.7 percent decline last time and10.6 percent in the event before that.Next was whole milk powder, up 19.1percent, after dropping 10.3 percentlast time and 13.1 percent the eventbefore that. Butter followed, up 10.8percent, after dropping 6.1 percent last

time. Skim milk power was up 8.5 per-cent, after plunging 14.4 percent lasttime. Cheddar cheese was up 4.4 per-cent, after inching up 0.2 percent lasttime, and rennet casein was up 3.0percent, after slipping 2.7 percent lasttime.

HighGround Dairy points out thatthis is the highest percentage gain innearly five years, “But, without a sig-nificant shift in the supply/demandfundamentals, upside potential onmilk powders is likely limited in theshort term.” HighGround concludesthat “This week’s auction is clearly acorrection and not the start of a recov-ery, though prices could continue ris-ing in the short term. Global milk pro-duction needs to contract before asignificant price rebound can occur.”

The USDA announced the SeptemberFederal order Class I base milk priceWednesday at $16.34 per hundred-weight, up 6 cents from August, $7.29below September 2014, and equates toabout $1.40 per gallon, unchangedfrom August but 63 cents below Sep-tember 2014. It is the lowest Septem-ber Class I price since 2010. The ninemonth Class I average is now at$16.33, down from $23.18 a year ago,

and compares to $18.48in 2013.As it always does,

USDA’s monthly Livestock, Dairy, andPoultry Outlook, issued Tuesday, mir-rored dairy projections contained in thelatest World Agricultural Supply andDemand Estimates report issued Aug.12. Dairy export forecasts were loweredand import forecasts were raised basedon higher expected competition globally.

Focusing on feed price forecasts, theOutlook lowered its projections fromlast month due to higher forecastyields. The 2015-16 forecasts for cornand soybean meal are $3.35-$3.95 perbushel and $310-$350 per short ton,respectively. The alfalfa hay price fellfrom $192 to $178 per short ton fromMay to June.

With lower milk prices expected tomore than offset lower feed prices inlate 2015 and early 2016, the 2016dairy herd is forecast to contract to9.31 million head, a year-over-yeardecline of 5,000 and 20,000 less thanforecast last month. The yield forecastwas lowered to 22,880 pounds for the

year, 10 pounds less than last month’sforecast, according to the USDA.

■

Dairy margins were mixed the pasttwo weeks, strengthening slightly innearby periods while deteriorating inthe first half of 2016, according to thelatest Margin Watch from Chicago-based Commodity and IngredientHedging LLC. An extremely bearishAugust World Agricultural Supply andDemand Estimates report from theUSDA pressured feed values whilemilk prices were steady to higher innearby months and weaker in deferredcontracts since the end of July. TheUSDA shocked the market with theirupdated yield and production figuresfor corn and soybeans, which were wellabove the average of pre-report expec-tations.

It has been decades since most people would go totown on Saturday night and listen to a commu-nity band concert. But the sound of the commu-

nity band has not died away completely. Some smalltowns still boast a band that stirs its listeners.

The Tracy Community Band celebrated its 25thanniversary this year under the leadership of ClintPeterson. Peterson was the local high school banddirector from 1960-1986. Many of the approximately35 members played under Peterson in high school,while some are current high school band members.

In 1990, Tracy held an all-school reunion, andPeterson directed a 100-piece alumni band for theoccasion. After the reunion, Peterson said, “a groupdecided to stay together and play.”

First trombone player Harold Hewitt is a retired

farmer who still helps his son on the farm. Hepointed out a number of men and women who comein from the farm for the weekly rehearsal and toplay at special occasions and in parades.

The oldest member is 79-year-old ChaunceyMuedeking who still farms because “I’m still havingfun,” he said. He has also been playing taps at veter-ans’ funerals for over 60 years.

The band plays at fundraisers and special events,and in local parades. They left the area once to go toWashington, D.C., when they were invited to repre-sent Minnesota at the National Festival of the States.

They make good music, but they have good fun, too.Joking around before an outdoor concert on a beauti-ful summer evening, one woman remarked thatwhen she raised her hand to keep a band going after

the reunion, “I thought we were voting for pizza.”Asked if they march in parades or ride a bandwagon,

there was a ripple of laughter. “We play or we march,” amember said. “We don’t have breath to do both.”

Their program of marches, hymn tune arrange-ments, and other band music brings back memoriesfor listeners who once sat at a bandshell andenjoyed a concert. Playing in the band is also memo-rable for some of its older members.

“Clint was the high school band director,” onemember said. “I feel like I never left school.”

The Tracy Community Band’s last performance ofthe summer season will be at the town’s Box CarDays parade on Labor Day. For more information onBox Car Days, visit www.tracymn.org. ❖

The latest full ‘From the Fields’ crop reports from our Minnesota

& northern Iowa producersThe Pulks Wannaska, Minn.

Wheat harvest has just begun for Andy Pulk, andso far he likes what he sees. When The Land spokewith Pulk Aug. 14 he said he expects “yields willbe above expectation.” He started harvesting theday prior, and figures it will take a week tocomplete — “I’ve got 1,400 acres to wipe out.”Pulk will get some additional help with the wheat;his brother-in-law will be lending a hand.Meanwhile, “The soybeans are doing good,” he

said. “Everything has beensprayed for the final time.”The sunflowers are in fullbloom and are “beingpollinated by bees.” The cornis currently in the sweet cornstage, which would make the

crop on-schedule for a normal harvest date. “Thebiggest thing on our plate is to get the wheat off,”said Pulk. “It’s the culmination of what you’vebeen waiting for all year.”

The Lees McIntosh, Minn.

While Joan Lee is off enjoying the wonders ofIreland on the Minnesota Agriculture and RuralLeadership alumni trip, The Land interviewedJoan’s husband, Mark Lee, on Aug. 17. The rainthat fell on the Lee farm Aug. 13 was a muchwelcomed sight. They received a little over aninch, but the crops could use even more. “Thecorn is starting to get a little bit dry,” Lee said.The same thing can be said for the soybeans —

“They are really burning up.”Lee estimates that in certainareas of the field, beans thatwould have yielded 40bushels per acre will now onlyproduce 10. They finishedwheat harvest Aug. 16 —

“probably the best wheat I’ve ever had.” With 48bushels per acre, Lee is pleased with the results.Overall for the crops, he said, “In the heavier soil,everything looks pretty good.”

The Haarstads Rothsay, Minn.

“Things are looking reallygood.” John Haarstad spokewith The Land on Aug. 14 andwas pleased with the conditionof his crops. “The corn isreally good; it’s on pace to grow a good crop.”Nothing exceptional, he noted, but solid.Meanwhile, the soybeans are “bushy and have nicegreen color still.” As for the aphids, “I think we’ve

turned the corner,” said Haarstad. He feelsfortunate to not have had much hot weather thissummer, with the exception of the past few days.Haarstad is continuing to prep equipment forharvest, and is also keeping busy cleaning signs atthe sign shop. “We’re happy with where we’re at,”he said, although he knows that “harvest will tellus how we did, and how much Mother Nature didfor us.”

The Filzens Renville, Minn.

When The Land spoke with Dale Filzen Aug. 16he was hoping the rain would quit missing hisfields and finally provide some neededprecipitation. “The soybeans need a drink,” hesaid. “You can really see the high grounds startingto suffer.” There was a pretty good chance of rainthis week, which was music to Filzen’s ears. “Thecorn looks pretty good,” he said, and there’s “a lotof yellow in the navy bean field.” Filzen estimated

they’re a week to 10 daysahead of normal, which heattributes to “good growingconditions.” He plans onspraying his navy beans inabout 10 days, meaning itwould be a couple weeks

before harvest. In the meantime, Filzen has twobins left to empty out and is getting harvestequipment ready to go. Even though they’re a littleshort on moisture, “I’d say it still looks real good.”

The ThorpesCanby, Minn.

Five inches of rain fall at Nathan Thorpe’s farmAug. 18. “We are really wet,” he told The Landthree days later. But even with the abundance ofrain, he said both the corn and soybeans lookexcellent. “This corn and bean crop is made atthis point,” said Thorpe. His main thought now:“If the rain keeps coming, think how much funwe’ll have at harvest.” He’s also thinking harvestequipment, and is happy to report that it’s getting

close to being ready to go.Harvest is just around thecorner and Thorpe is happyto “have a great crop.”

The PagelsWinthrop, Minn.

The crops are in “prettygood shape” in terms ofmoisture on Delayne Pagel’sfarm. The Land spoke withPagel on Aug. 21; hereported that two inches of rain had fallen in thepast week. Before the rain, the heat was a factor:“It did a little damage to the corn. I think we gota little bit of ear tip back but not much,” he said.

The moisture had “pretty good timing for thebeans,” Pagel said; after the rains they were “anice dark green again.” Meanwhile, the kidneybeans are turning colors and Pagel said that“maybe in two weeks we’ll start harvesting.” Untilthen he’ll be cleaning out bins getting them readyfor corn. Pagel predicts that “it’s going to be anormal fall” for harvest.

The MarblesMapleton, Minn.

“The crops all look great,”Harlan Marble told The Landon Aug. 23, but he washoping that summer wouldmake a reappearance in theforecast. “We need some heat to bring this cornalong further,” he said. The corn has started toslowly dent and “we’ve got relatively good ears.”The soybeans are still setting pods, and Marble is

somewhat concerned that the crop is growing uprather than filling out. Overall, however, he saidhe has “no concerns with the crops whatsoever.”Marble will be taking a break from the farm tohave surgery on his wrist on Aug. 28, then on tophysical therapy. He is bound and determined toget all healed up and “be back in good shape todrive the combine.”

The HeusinkveldsWykoff, Minn.

Nate Heusinkveld’s crops are doing “real good”on the moisture front, with two inches of rain inthe past week. The Land spoke with HeusinkveldAug. 21 as he was gearing up for corn silageharvest — most likely the second weekend ofSeptember. He finished up his third crop haywhich “yielded really good,” and in about 10 days,the fourth crop hay will be ready for harvest. Thecorn is maturing, Heusinkveld said: “A lot of it,

the milk’s gone out of.” Hereported that the MowerCounty Fair went well, withone of his heifers moving onto the Minnesota State Fair.“The kids did good.” Now it’stime to get ready for harvest.

“We’ll go through the chopper, get the corn headready.” He likes what he sees out in the fields:“There’s going to be a lot of 200-bushel-an-acrecorn. The only thing left to worry about is a frost.”

The KempsSibley, Iowa

“The crops are looking good,” Brian Kemp toldThe Land on Aug. 23. He was happy to report thecrops aren’t showing any signs of heat stress, andwith two and a half inches rain in the last twoweeks they are doing well for moisture. “We’rebehind in heat units,” he said, although warmerweather was in the forecast. Kemp said the cornis “just starting to dent,” and he’s pleased thatthe ears are filled to the tip — something he

attributes to “good growingconditions and a lack ofstress” this growing season.Meanwhile, he said thesoybeans are doing well, too.Kemp did not have to sprayfor aphids this year, as they

seemed to mostly keep their distance from hisneighborhood. Overall, he said, “Prospects aregood for a decent crop.”

The Froemmings Garfield, Minn.

Wheat harvest is in fullswing on the Froemmingfarm. Speaking with The LandAug. 14, Rodney Froemmingestimated that “we’ve got twodays left (of harvest). It’s the best wheat I’ve evergrown,” he said. Bushels-per-acre yields have beenin the 60s, with some top wheat up into the 70s.He was also working on third crop hay this day.

According to Froemming, the crops haven’t beenstressed at all this summer. The corn is looking“excellent,” and the soybeans also “look like anexcellent crop.” Most of the bean plants arealready filled. Planting of the rye crop will happenaround the first of September.

You are hungry.It’s been a long time since you’ve

eaten and you’re ready to recruit thefamily, march to the oven, draft a cou-ple recipes, and attack your plate. Andwhatever it is you’ll chow on, you canbet the U.S. military had a hand in it,as you’ll learn in “Combat-ReadyKitchen” by Anastacia Marx de Sal-cedo.

What’s inside the food you eat?As a “passionate home cook” who

devoured cookbooks “like novels,”Anastacia Marx de Salcedo wondered.With two school-age children, she nat-urally wanted to feed them the mostnutritious breakfasts and pack forthem the healthiest lunches possible— but while doing some research, shewas handed “an unpleasant surprise.”

It should come as no big news thatthe U.S. military has a lot of mouths tofeed. In order to do that, an entiredepartment has been toiling fordecades to create meals that are nutri-tious but efficient. What de Salcedolearned was that the government’smethods for making those meals haveaffected what goes on your table.

Thanks to the military, for instance,we consume granola bars (meant togive soldiers an easily-toted energyboost) by the ton. We know what foodsremain tasty, packed in (and stored for

years in) tin cans. We enjoy freeze-dried produce at breakfast, but not onour sandwiches; researchers tried tofreeze-dry meat but soldiers hated it.

Because the military saw thatmicrowaves worked well to heat food,those appliances are ubiquitous in ourkitchens. Uncle Sam finessed methodsfor moving meat to far-flung eaters,which affects the way we buy our porkchops and steaks. Our bread, chips,snacks, “practically every bag, box, can,bottle, jar, and carton we buy” has beentinkered with by the U.S. militarybecause it needs commercial food pro-ducers to be ready and able to ramp upproduction quickly in times of war.

In other words, says de Salcedo, youand your children are “chowing down

like special ops,”just in case. Andthat, shebelieves, isn’tthe healthiestidea we’ve everdeployed…

Certainly,you love to eat.You might even enjoy making saidmeal, but will that which you read in“Combat-Ready Kitchen” put you atease?

Possibly not, because some of whatauthor Anastacia Marx de Salcedoshares is rather disturbing but surpris-ingly… not surprising. Using thatconundrum, de Salcedo takes readersback to ancient times, helpfully

explaining how the feeding of Romantroops has evolved into the grab-and-go

we enlist at home. Indescribing somewhat ofa historical timelinemixed with an untan-gling of modern technol-ogy, de Salcedo eventu-ally leads us to herconclusion of why mili-tary messing isn’t goodfor civilians — eventhough it’s almost neces-sary — and then shepeeks into the future.

Be aware that this bookis filled with everythingyou forgot from high schoolscience class, and it’s amess of acronyms. Myadvice, therefore — andespecially if you love to eatand like to know where yourfood comes from — is to try“Combat-Ready Kitchen,”but take it in small bites.

Look for the reviewed book at a book-store or a library near you. You may alsofind the book at online book retailers.

I really should have talked tomy mother before I agreed tomarry a farm boy.

My mother would have beenable to tell me what life waslike on the other side of thefield — where the home andfamily came together each day.And that getting the farmeraway from the farm was com-parable to removing stubborntoenail fungus from the toenail.

Actually, my parents did pileeveryone in the family roadstera handful of times to get away. We were a family ofnine heading out to Yellowstone National Park, theBlack Hills and to eastern Iowa once to see that partof the only state my dad ever called ‘home.’

I’m sure there was a tranquilizer bottle somewherein the glove box on each occasion.

But those trips didn’t happen often. When you livewith a farmer, there are only certain times of the yearwhen vacations are possible. Of course, the school

year is taken, so that leaves summer time. If we weregoing on vacation we’d have to wait until the cropwas planted and cultivated, the beans walked and thehay baled for us and all the neighbors.

There were mechanical breakdowns and buildingsthat needed attention, and livestock that needed tobe tended — especially when the sows were havingpigs. The sweetcorn needed to be frozen, chickens

had to be cleaned, garden produce preserved andcows needed to be milked.

No wonder the word “vacation” needed to bedusted off when we heard rumors of it.

But if there’s one thing that’s true about farmkids, it’s that they know how to make their own fun

Scheduling vacations with a farmer next to impossible

SCHWALLER, from pg. 5B— because friends, and town, are a long way fromthe farm. Thank God for rural siblings — there wasalways someone to play with. I remember endlessgames of “Annie Annie Over the House,” kick-over-the-wire, croquet, catch, and badminton playedover a clothesline — which, with a family of nine —was usually full of clothes.

Our mother must have loved having some sum-mer afternoons to herself while we dipped our-selves in the copper canner kettles and slurpedcold watermelon with reckless abandon. But I alsobet she needed those tranquilizers again when wecame in covered with mud from playing in thebackyard all afternoon in the water, and seeingthat her Lilies of the Valley had fallen victim tomuddy conditions, childhood antics and youngclumsiness.

Sometimes Dad would grab a bat and ball and hitsome out for us to catch. How we loved it when hedid that. The farm took all of his time.

Fast-forward to our own kids, who loved growingup on the farm — even when they had to help loadhogs before they got on the bus. When our sons werein second grade, they came home from school oneday telling us that kids in their classes said theysmelled like pigs.

They spoke those words with grins — they didn’teven care because they loved the work, though I’msure it took a while for everyone’s nose hairs togrow back in again. A mother can only do so muchto help ensure an adequate showering processbetween an early-morning hog-loading date, break-fast and the arrival of the school bus. I’m sure thebus driver wondered what went on around here.

I guess that’s how it all starts with farmers. Theyget the next generation of themselves hooked on thelifestyle, and so they, too, don’t mind if they neversee canyons of concrete and steel, as John Denversings. It doesn’t seem like work to them at such ayoung age — it already seems like more fun thanthey could imagine — especially with a donut wait-ing for them at the local convenience store on theway to the hog buying station. Happiness aboundsat that point.

With fun like that to look forward to on the farm,what kid really needs a vacation? It’s probably justas well — there’s no time, and it’s less trouble toremove that toenail fungus anyway.
