Iowa corn farmer leaders are in Washington D.C. this week fighting for E15, Farm Bill and sharing about the high input costs impacting them. It’s time for the Farm Bill to be passed!
Iowa farmer: This fertilizer shortage is going to affect everybody. It could lead to a decrease in yields. If you look at that countrywide, corn, soybeans, cotton, rice, that will increase prices. It's gonna be a train wreck for consumers.
🚨@NationalCorn: “Corn growers are disgusted, disappointed and disillusioned that after spending years of calling for passage of E15, Congress has again punted, and it has done so in a spectacular weak and offensive way.”
“Bizarrely, members of Congress are now planning to establish a rural energy council to explore this legislation as if we are in the beginning stages of discussing E15. We already have a bill. We already have an agreement with the petroleum industry after months of negotiation. But instead of acting, Congress is now suggesting a process-ridden task force that kicks the can down the road once again. Congress is choosing to leave America’s 500,000 corn farmers behind in favor of a handful of refineries”

@sschevelle33 Drill a hole in the bottom of a bucket. Use a auger bit and a drill or impact. A big drill. Thats how we used to do them for Encirca. Drill down through the hole, the dirt collects in the bucket.
