@MikeFamilyFarm Not possible on some farms here. We have to drive the carts loaded half a mile away on one farm before it’s wide and clear enough line of sight to give cars time to stop.

5 years of driving our own truck and never had an incident of people being impatient to get around while loading.
Just had the third person this year get out of their vehicle in less than 20 seconds of waiting.
Two minutes. That’s all I need.

@Arrowquip has unveiled their new POWERLOCK 108 Series and ARROWLOCK 88 Series at their #RiseoftheRancher event in Woodlands, Manitoba!

@farmerjim13 @clintwfischer I would say you’re owed something if you’ve been putting in work for most of your life. But, there is a difference between those that demand reparations and those that know they will get them based on family dynamics over the years.

@FarmHendrickson @JohnDeere Our 7600 has a plastic flip piece that can accommodate two different sized cups. Sweetest design I’ve seen yet but I think that was aftermarket.

@CBKimbrell @MattHintz3 I use a pair of Bose quiet comfort earbuds. Reduces noise in most cases plus I can listen to music.

@TommyTucker091 @HogstromMikael @ImpenitentThief @joseletemuniz Hence my last two sentences.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@TommyTucker091 @HogstromMikael @ImpenitentThief @joseletemuniz Solar panels require high quality glass and can’t reuse recycled glass. Plenty of low quality sand available just about everywhere. It isn’t worth breaking down.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@HogstromMikael @ImpenitentThief @TommyTucker091 @joseletemuniz 96% of the weight in solar panels is glass which can’t be reused. Suddenly after recycling a few panels you’re left with disposing more low quality glass than you can afford to.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@wheat_daddy @rattycastle The only real destruction of the environment is when you glass it with concrete or solar panels.

The new planter setup has just come together in time for planting!

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@Christy170162 @ShortnBluntTho Cheaper to raise food where the rainforest was and ship it where needed than it is to raise food where they’re paying 10x more for solar panels.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@RogerGreeson @jr_womack My guy, if you get out and see first hand how they’re constructing the solar in our area you’d know that they’re completely destroying the fertility of the land. You’re looking at future subdivisions when the money is out of renewables and moves to nuclear.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@RogerGreeson @jr_womack Every single study I’ve found completely leaves out the fact that corn raised for ethanol makes a slew of other byproducts. The one you referenced included. Funny they never include the CO2 cost of harvesting the materials to produce solar.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@RogerGreeson @jr_womack Does solar produce a byproduct which can then be fed to livestock to decrease their consumption by weight 20% which effectively makes the product dual-use for food and energy?

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@d33r3driv3r @clintwfischer Not if they hire out more work than they put in.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@d33r3driv3r @clintwfischer I do. If the minority of the people involved to make the business run are family, I don’t consider them a family business. Like someone else said, Walmart is still considered a family owned business. A more fair number would use the metrics I stated but there’s no available data.

[Ryan Kuster @HowFarmsWork]

@ediecreekangus The idea is to be able to figure out which one she is when she’s in the chute. I don’t make culling decisions when she’s in the pasture. They all still get ID tags.
