Saw a coop agronomist posted a picture of a soil thermometer in the ground on social media. Must almost be time to plant. Is it just me or do the agronomists soil thermometers always read 10 degrees colder? #agX #corn #soybeans #plant26

Caught an overhead view of Jake Bamrick spraying our tall corn. Despite the all the rain we still opted to hire a ground rig instead of an airplane. You can see the fungicide penetrate the canopy. #iowafarmer #corn #approachprima

If I buy powwow stamps will you stop losing my mail? @USPSHelp

@PioneerSeeds You bet 👍

My son and I recreated a picture I took with my dad 35 years ago. 35 years later we still plant @PioneerSeeds

Hey @DOGE, please investigate @USPS. Some people/businesses are not set up for electronic payment so the mail is still necessary. I’ve had 5 letters not make it to their recipient in the last month. Funny how junk mail always gets delivered on time though.

I love how fast “well we just as well plant something” turns into we got most of our corn in the ground before April 20th. #plant25 #Iowa #corn #soybeans

@josh_sayler It’s corruption exposing other corruption. At least some of it’s getting exposed. We’ll take all of the exposure we can get.

@CVDmarkets I hate first year corn following corn. I’ve found if a farmer is on the fence about doing corn or beans on a field and goes to their fertilizer/seed sales person the sales person will probably encourage corn. The fertilizer retailer makes more money off corn.

@clintwfischer Do it! No more basic conversations. Let’s really get to know each other.

Hard work is merely a means to an end. Whether it be wealth, survival, or wages. Let’s stop making it our whole personality.

@RandyPark15 @PhilWCC Adjusting hail insurance claims has a similar vibe to it. Taking the time to read and understand the product you are buying(and how it will be adjusted if you have a claim) prevents a lot of useless stress/anger later.

My biggest pet peeve is people with too many pet peeves (who are annoyed by everything). Enjoy life and get over yourselves.

@BasisEater In 1971 the US dollar went off the gold standard.

@the_birdfarmer A lot of coop employees are people who love agriculture and didn’t have the opportunity to farm. Good for them for getting a vacation. Probably isn’t smart to tag the coop in the post.

@corn_porkNbeans Just laugh and say it’s not my problem lol 😂

Harvest 2024 is complete!

@Jones6807 Same. Appears like some of it volatilizes or leaches right away while some of it clings so tightly to soil organic matter it takes several years to become available. Crazy.

@3furrowsjd @Jones6807 I like your style
