A #Harvest22 update from Grain Merchandiser Mackenzie Hirschauer: "Things are slow in the St. Louis draw area. Corn harvest has started for MO/IL, but still seeing a lot of high moisture in IL. Beans are turning so we could see more producers cutting soon."
Today we're taking a moment to share appreciation to all the producers who work tirelessly to feed us year-round. Happy #NationalFarmersDay! #FarmersAreVital
Crop Progress Update from Mackenzie Hoffman, Grain Merchandiser in St Louis, MO.
“Corn is looking 80% good and 20% questionable. Fungicide has been applied. Less confident on quality/yield of beans. Some floods took away a decent production with spotty replant.”
What if we introduced ourselves in agriculture and FFA circles by why we love agriculture now, and focused less on justifying why we belong here?
I don’t think we need to justify why we did or didn’t grow up on a farm.

Your people make the difference. They matter. Remind them that you care.

Rarity the echidna puggle is doing well! Since arriving as an orphan, she has doubled in size and is going from strength to strength. Just weeks old, she requires expert care, so one of our wonderful veterinarians has taken on the responsibility of raising her around the clock!
