@lathemfarms I have a Starlink mini on my dash. It’s an absolute game changer for $55/month. Overpasses and the I-70 tunnels aren’t great but otherwise rock solid.
Amazing bipartisan vote last night to pass the Protect College Sports Act in the Senate! This is a huge win for athletes, schools, fans, and everyone who loves college sports!
Tonight the U.S. Senate passed the Protecting College Sports Act, through an overwhelming and bipartisan 77-22, vote! Congratulations and thank you to @tedcruz@SenatorCantwell, @Senator_Schmitt, @ChrisCoons, their staffs, and Senate Commerce staff. Also huge thanks to @realDonaldTrump, @WhiteHouse staff, the legendary Randy Levine and Nick Saban, Dary Stone, and thousands of athletes, hundreds of universities, dozens of conferences, and innumerable passionate fans who helped make history tonight.
This bill is a huge step forward in protecting opportunity, stability, and sustainability of this uniquely American institution - especially women’s sports, our Olympic programs, and the often-forgotten communities that revolve around and depend on college sports.
We strongly urge the House to move as quickly as possible and send this bill to the President’s desk!
Our Soil Health Field Days will teach you something new.
Spend the morning with us on August 4th or 5th exploring demonstration plots, asking questions, and learning from real-world experiences you can take back to your own farm.
Whether you're looking for ideas for your own operation, want to compare cover crop species side by side, or just want to connect with other farmers and ranchers, there's something here for everyone.
Choose the sessions that interest you most:
- Corn interseeding and cover crop mixes
- Biologicals
- Grazing systems and virtual collars
- Regenerative equipment
- Wildlife food plots
- Cover Crops in your home garden With over 100 cover crop species on display, you'll have plenty to see and compare.
Attendance is free, and a delicious, locally-sourced and home-cooked meal will be provided.
Registration is limited to 150 people each day, so reserve your spot today!

Could corn interseeding boost your profits in 2026?
Grazing corn stalks after harvest is already a solid revenue opportunity but what if those stalks came with a nutritious, multi-species mix growing between the rows?
Species like clover, annual ryegrass, and brassicas perform very well in a corn interseeding mix and they completely transform the nutritional value of grazing stalks.
With input costs still high and grain margins tight, interseeding gives you more than a soil health win, it gives a high value grazing opportunity that can bring home real profit.

"That's the thing about Jacob Rodriguez, he's a pro. He's a guy who knows how to take care of his body, knows how to study the game and be a great teammate."

College Sports are broken, and those who first made the mess and profit handsomely from the status quo do not want to fix it. Without meaningful change, opportunities for thousands and thousands of talented student athletes will disappear and women’s and Olympics sports programs will be canceled. A disjointed and disorganized revenue generation system is the root cause, and everybody in college sports knows it - including many members of the Big 10 and SEC, who have recently reported staggering and unsustainable athletic deficits and debts. Ironically, at least one of these two commissioners, who argue that the status quo is “just fine”, have simultaneously pursued onerous private equity and debt deals to paper over the overwhelming deficits many of their member institutions face. The situation is even more dire in the lower-revenue conferences, as is well known.
Our primary objective is to provide athletic programs, both big and small, the tools they need to achieve financial sustainability and preserve all of their programs, scholarships, and roster spots. We want to grow the financial pie, and make it work for everybody - doing so in a way that doesn’t not punish or take revenue away from the “big boys”. Not only is this the right thing to do, it is also consistent with the President’s “Saving College Sports” Executive Order, that was issued last summer.
The posture of these two commissioners indicates that they do not care about the fate of the other conferences or smaller schools, nor do they care about the life-changing opportunity provided to women and to athletes in our Olympic sports. It seems they have chosen to disregard the directives of the President and the will of the American people.
Change is difficult, I get that, especially when it means dismantling a long-held, broken, backwards system. My sincere hope is that, instead of throwing up roadblocks to our congressional momentum, we can work together on solutions that put the student athletes first and preserves the viability of the great American institution of college sports.
Our 2025 Corn Interseeding Trial Report is here!
Each year the Green Cover team conducts dedicated corn interseeding trials on the farm in Bladen, Nebraska.
In these plots we trial various row spacings and corn interseeding mixes to help answer all of your questions around successfully planting a diverse cover crop mix into a corn crop.
Download the report here: https://t.co/o9xqidKL2R and be sure to share this post with anyone you think might benefit from these learnings!
