I agree with your above premise but don't know if we will ever go back to that point!

IN555 I have a neighbor who farms next to me put N on and spray corn chemical and right as he went to the field and plant we got 2" of rainfall. That was on June 1 and since then we have had about 4...

If you find substidized insurance egregious then can I assume that you find Obama Care, Social Security, SNAP, and foreign aid equally so? You do realize that pp is a last case seniaro for farmers? ...

Village: I don't disagree with what you say but whether you or I think it is a crock that is exactly why the government keeps their hand in the food supply system. They could not give a rat's but...

Well this is an interesting topic to say the least. For the record I personally would love to see all subsidies end tomorrow because of my small size around 300 acres we would be here for a long...

In my neck of the woods we have thousands of acres that have never been touched! This is not a case of a couple of guys and it is not like we are sitting around doing nothing! We have 9 days to go...

48 they tell me that if we take pp and do not plant another crop it will not affect aph. As far as soybeans go you are correct that freeze/frost is deadly to them. However I have a couple of...

It is interesting to see how things vary from area to area! Around here most of the land was 2/3 for renter and 1/3 for landlord all expenses split that way as well. Of our old landlords that still...

Without going into a lot of detail but we have some lower ground that is super wet and we have no chemical, fertilizer or seed invested. We have 150 aph at 60% x 5.65 I just don't see planting...

Db it is all the way to Springfield and champaign all the way down to the Ohio River which I have seen myself. Acres upon on acres of standing water, many fields the sprayer has left ruts that are...

Tas:

You are correct but you also could say that 525 mt will have to be produced somewhere else! Last year I sold some in June because "the world was full of wheat". By October I could of gained...

Have you read the following article about corn with a 4 in front of it this fall? http://www.agweb.com//article/look_for_a_4_harvest_price_on_corn/
May as well not plant that last 40 of corn as...

I agree with you but do you think the pencil pushers have a clue? This is more than backyarditis as conditions across the growing areas of the US are much less than ideal. Bet we will see articles...

It is more than ugly it is downright depressing. Hate to cuss rain because sooner or later you will wish you had it. We got lucky and picked up 2.5 inches in two days and it is still raining. ...

Now your area is catching up with ours! In our area we still have three weeks to get beans in but high yields most likely will be off the table, unless we have a wet summer like 09. Don't think the...

Crap Momo that is a bad. Hope it comes back what a piece of rotten luck.

Maybe people need to pay a little more attention to DB51! Last year I sat at my computer screen and watched my corn start on its death roll in the middle of June. Took the markets about a month...

IN555 for what it is worth I do not disagree with what you are saying, however that is not the policy that I bought! Rightly or wrongly the policy that was sold to us farmers had the pp provision in...

Yeah, lets look at fundamentals (if they count anymore) we are going into another short supply year, crop is late going into the ground and conditions are less than ideal. Around here everyone just...

I can only concur with db and greengold for my neck of the woods. Lot of the BTO's are pushing seed in the ground at all costs because crop insurance pays more if it is planted rather than take pp. ...
