Some “farmers” need to be FARMERS again. Make it a collective effort of being good stewards.
Rushing has never paid and it’s still never going to pay.
But this argument will go into the echo chamber and never be changed 🤪

Why are we (SC MN) post spraying corn at V1-V2?
I think waiting another week or two would be 🤌🏻

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

An observation I feel is known but needs to be said again;
Following the behavior of stress and urgency; the farmers that push to get a crop in the ground when the ground is unfit are the ones that are living a lifestyle they can’t afford 🤔

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

@corn_porkNbeans Exactly 👍 Very well said!

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

The mentality of More = More in crop inputs needs to be done. There is too much research and real life instances proving that is not the case. It’s 2026, time to get with it. #balance #soilhealth

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

@Johnkempf Yes I have humates in the mix as well 😃

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

Read about using compost on crop fields. The benefits list is long.
Then add lime or gypsum to it. That is one heck of a product.
I make that product.

A Thought; participation in the negative. As farmers we are just consumers as well, we have the power to buy less of or not buy at all overpriced inputs and/or government programs.
They do not care if we whine about it, because guess what, majority will still participate.

@JasonHanson2028 Idk, I grow 200+ bu corn without glyphosate🤷🏻‍♀️ I guess I’m doing something wrong 🤔

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

@ChrisK_Banded Great suggestion 😃 there are plenty of them to pick and choose participation in 😆

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

Anybody else at the point with agronomy in that all the buzz words mean nothing anymore and you refuse to participate in conversations unless it is about handling the big picture.

Understanding soil and plant science has many different meanings right now it’s frustrating

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

Who knew trying to compost manure in some parts of this country would be such a struggle.
It’s fascinating

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

The last two years for me in business have been a fight. Internally bad things happened, I made enemies for doing the right thing and help make hard decisions.

The grind continues to rebuild, but the support I’ve had along the way is unmatched.

Good always wins! #agretail

@gwiesefarms From what some statistics say as far as farm living expenses, my pick would be the winter vaca 🌴🤷🏻‍♀️

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

@JamesPieper10 They are a heck of a tractor 🤩

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

@AdamLasch1 And everybody just looks at each other like 🤷🏻‍♀️ what happened….. what do we do…… 🙄

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

A refusal to change your mentality when opportunities arise is a refusal to move forward and set up for success!

And 2026 is giving the American farmer a massive opportunity to steer the ship another way for their farming practices.

But we don’t wanna talk about that 😏

[Dru Leiding @dleiding2]

It seems like a good time to put our social media scrolling aside and look around and remind ourselves of what we have in front of us.
That is the point in times like these.
