This is a very interesting trial

[Zack Smith @zebulousprime]

Took out my 60” single row hybrid plot Friday. Planted at 16,000 seeds/A. 8 Pioneer hybrids. Goal for the plot was to see hybrid expression in gaps. Yield range was 135-246 bu/a across products. 246 on 16k. To quote the great Ruth Langmore, “We don’t know fuck about shit.”

I’ve seen a lot of cool things in my soils over the yrs… but this is right up there

1” of earthworm castings (frozen this morning) on this field…and can tell where it’s undermined in places

An excellent analysis & explanation of what politics is all about.
Your #FridayChuckle (& #Truth).🤷‍♂️

[Andrew McGuire @agronomistag]

Have any of you read the chapters about agriculture in this book?
😬😲😵
If he is right about the results of the combination of demographics, geography, deglobalization, and reduced security, none of issues debated regarding agriculture will matter.
Got to hope he's wrong.

I enjoyed this,learned how the knitter worked

[Greg Gunthorp @GGunthorp]

Understanding how one of these hay baler knotter works is a trait in rural America that was always rare. As small squares of hay and straw get rarer the people that know how to fix one of these even get fewer and farther between.

[Alan Willits @alan_willits]

Very interesting
