@AgWriterArk I had to wonder if that crow is going tell its friends or keep it a secret.

Thanks, Grok. @HormelFoods

Things I learned this week: - AK's only ag export is peonies - Prolonged off-target dicamba can increase nematodes - Colorful pigments in leaves show up after chlorophyll dissipates in the fall. @AginArk

@AgWriterArk I've seen a few so far! Exciting to see. Glad Commet Lemmon isn't get any closer.

With China out of the U.S. soybean business, maybe it's time for our farmers to look at non-GMO or transition some acres to organic. There's a demand for it, and you get a nice premium. Tougher in the Mid-South, but this shows it can be done: https://t.co/WjqbXXBvms

@joeroganhq Absolutely. Please read Andrew Smith’s book “Moondust.”

[John S. Lovett @Arkansalt]

@4029Darby Great news! Our chickens and goats will be happy about that, too.

[John S. Lovett @Arkansalt]

@SharmL @wiresmith @BloomsburyBooks I agree. I just picked it up at my local library.

[John S. Lovett @Arkansalt]

@joeroganhq Andrew Smith, author of "Moonwalkers: In Search of the Men Who Fell to Earth." Great read btw @wiresmith

A nice story on Arkansas' 1st gluten-free brewery with comments on #rice for brewing by UA food scientist/flavor chemist @ScottLafontain. Cheers! @AginArk @ArkAgResearch @bumperscollege.
