@Mike_Crosby @SakinaDee1 Many “simple farmers” are business savvy, financially forward & technologically progressive. Self-driving vehicles? Been using autosteer/GPS for 10+ years. Understand accounting, commodity markets, international trade, etc.etc. Farms are businesses. Rural doesn’t equal backwards.

Truth: Personal Freedom does not mean you are free to hurt everyone around you. It does not give you the right to drive drunk, or poison the water supply, or burn down the neighborhood. When you fail to saddle personal freedom with personal responsibility, you fail the test that

"I'm just being honest" is a poor excuse for being rude.

Candor is being forthcoming in what you say. Respect is being considerate in how you say it.

Being direct with the content of your feedback doesn't prevent you from being thoughtful about the best way to deliver it.

@homesweetyeg @JestDempsey Always boiled, never fried, for dinner with butter & onions. Mushroom gravy for special occasions. Only fried for breakfast in the left over butter & onions the next day. 😋

@Tviss7 @agronomommy @jakehodel @cropsandclucks @ShaunPTyson I would suggest that if we chose to immerse ourselves in the Pharma world, similar to how we’re immersed in Ag, we’d understand what is coming down the pipeline. Annual reports have this information both in Pharma & Ag. Ag folks just tend to “know” Ag better.

The good thing about Science is that it’s true, whether or not you believe in it.

I don’t get jealous of people with nice cars or big houses. I get jealous of people that own flat fields with no rocks.

Farms have had to sell, or sell some, of the land. We all know those stories.
We all ALSO know stories of women, especially daughters, denied land inheritance or the opportunity to farm because...women.
