@CommonsensePaul This is the same logic used in 1929 Ukraine. Get into the gulag you Kulaks. Anyone remember what happened in the 1930?

Making liquid humic. I’m sometimes worried the neighbors are gonna see this shit and throw me in a river with rocks tied to my feet. If I float I’m a witch, and if I sink, we’ll maybe I had some sound agronomic ideas.

@gbtangus @KudrasR 5 gallons

Spring wheat on spring wheat. No applied nutrients since it 2020.

@gbtangus @KudrasR We graze crop aftermath. This piece hasn’t had any cover crops or been grazed in season.

[Cory Hawks @cbhawksland]

@KudrasR Thanks. That mining the soil narrative that ag retail keeps selling seems a little self serving. The seed was treated with Johnson Su compost and we put compost extract in furrow.

@TheLastField @IntegratedSoils is having an online course about this in February. It seems like money and time well spent if you are interested in trying this.

@becker1_dave We are shooting for 4 oz of liquid per head per day. There is usually 25 lbs of salt left in the bottom after 3 days.

[Cory Hawks @cbhawksland]

The cows are really hitting our brine hard during this hot weather. This is 10 gallons apple cider vinegar, 25 gallons water and 100 lbs of natural salt. They have free choice salt, conditioner and sodium bicarbonate. No mineral for a year and no fly problems.

[Cory Hawks @cbhawksland]

@becker1_dave It looks really good. It’s crazy how fast stuff will come back with good management.

[Cory Hawks @cbhawksland]

Seeding warm season covers green ish.

[Cory Hawks @cbhawksland]

@44bmac You do basically live in Iowa.

@becker1_dave This will be year 3 and it has worked well so far. I think rye is still a better option but it’s kind of a dirty word in this part of the country since we grow so much winter wheat.

[Cory Hawks @cbhawksland]

Winter triticale is an impressive crop to graze. It’s not tough enough for this year though. Maybe a warm season cover will do better.

[Cory Hawks @cbhawksland]

Winter triticale looks good so far.
