    Truax drills?

    The truax was never designed to seed large seeds like soybeans. Will it? Yes. But the box design may crush some seeds in the rear box. But if you need to plant a couple acres, no worries. The rear box is small and will not hold alot of big seeds. Do not try spying the nwsg box. It will grind...

    Drilling warm season grasses?

    It depends. If your nwsg seed supplier debeards seed and cleans well... a regular drill will pass the seeds without any carrier. But if you are mixing various legumes, wildflowers, etc into the mix then it starts to complicate things. It will just depend on the species and mix ratios. Seed...

    It loves fire... spot spray pasturegard for best results. It will turn it white in about 48 hours.

    Help with ID what this shrub is?

    I good 3.5 to 4.5% dose of glyphosate should work it over. I prefer using triclopyr or msm60. But dead is dead. Stay after it. Spring applications of pasturgard work very well. Then cleanup in later summer any new sprouts. Its not the worst plant, but I would not allow it to get started, if I...

    Help with ID what this shrub is?

    Sericea.....spray it soon. Seed will sit in seed bank a long time. Get rid of it before it becomes established or you will have it forever along with coyotes and cockroaches.

    SE Iowa Drone for over seeding corn and beans

    You might try this company. They are out of st. Louis area. But they travel pretty far. Combining several jobs could make it worth the travel time. https://www.airgrollc.com/

    Future of CRP

    Not dreaming at all- it was and should be. But the lack of complete farmbill has caused issues with authority to accept applications. Now fsa is "batching" application reviews for consideration. New government efficiency.

    Future of CRP

    If you missed the previous continuous crp sign up, you have a small window to apply right now. But you only have a week to apply before fsa will shut off the evaluation window next week.

    Future of CRP

    It required more points this time. Partially due to limited number of acres available to enroll at 1.7 million. Its all about supply and demand. More acres available below the cap = likelihood of lower points being accepted. Signup #64= 202 points, #62 = 188 points, #60 = 184 points, #58 =...

    Mid Contract CRP herbicide-what and what rate

    That rate is much more in line with imazapic rate. 5 to 8 oz of gly wouldn't do anything. But if that is what they told you, make sure you got it in writing and go to work and cash the check.

    WRP experience

    The person who put the Land into easement sold basically all rights with the easement to usda. Know that going in. You basically retain the rights to pay taxes, hunt and fish. All other rights belong to usda. That includes rights to cut trails, food plots, harvest nuts, berries, timber,etc...

    Future of CRP

    Future of CRP

    Many of the practices had a climate smart 20% bonus on soil rental rates. That was removed by the administration. So that will impact those practices. Also rental rates were adjusted by national ag statistics computation used by fsa. That may account for either an increase or decrease in soil...

    Future of CRP

    I would go ahead and re enroll. But I think you fsa folks are not exactly correct. Hardwoods are only allowed to be reenrolled one time (cp3) But there is an exemption for cp22. Those should be allowed to renenroll multiple times, I think. They should read the fine print a little closer. At...

    Future of CRP

    No updates from Washington on crp at this time. Hopefully there will be re-enrollment options. But we have had similar circumstances in the past and may not hear anything till mid summer.

    Future of CRP

    For the past 20 years The national crp acreage cap trends down during a republican administration typically. During a democratic administration the cap slightly goes up and typically higher rental rates and Incentive payments above and beyond. The kicker has been that the minimum ebi score to...

    Future of CRP

    Unfortunately NRCS is not the lead agency on HEL or wetland compliance.. FARM Service Agency is the legal lead. Fsa is the only agency that can legally enforce HEL and wetland compliance. NRCS does the leg work, the field work, and even the letters and talking to the customer. But FSA controlls...
