    Giant Deer of Iowa are rapidly becoming a past memory

    To think keeping the same Seasons, limits and weapons is going to some how magicily improve the declining condition is the definition of insanity. What really is the risk of going to one buck.

    The problem is the whole Goverment AG program need to be redone. I would like to know the cost to the taxpayer for the average acre of farmed land to the tax payer vs that same acre in Crp. With the projected subsidies being rolled out now and the crop insurance premium payments the crop acres...

    Giant Deer of Iowa are rapidly becoming a past memory

    The lower population issue is the root cause for most of the issues we have. The problem is our Buck harvest has remained stable with about half the Deer numbers we had 20 years ago. This is simple math that the Buck age structure will be trend downward. If people wont consider reducing...

    Flail mower on standing corn?

    They will do a great job on corn residue. Need to be run lower than the guy in the video. Also a tiller set shallow will do the same thing. The one in the video is way more complicated than needed a simple 3 point one works fine

    Latest from my FSA office as of Dec 1

    Not sure there is a signup of any kind right now. All the offices seem way behind on the work they have. Seems to me CRP of any kind is not a priority right now with this administration.

    Flail mower on standing corn?

    My guess is it would work great. As far as legal i would guess the same as mowing corn. Large flail mowers were pretty common one common brand was a side winder .Now seems most just run stalks down with a Turbo till or something similar.

    Giant Deer of Iowa are rapidly becoming a past memory

    Things are changing for sure in Iowa. Things like EHD are an issue but we cannot control that currently. I dont think they would be able to ban trail cameras or most of the increase in technology once people get used to using them. Another part that seems to be missed is many of the truly big...

    Spot Spraying Question

    Unless i did the math wrong a 3 foot circle should be 9.42 sq feet. So 9.42 x 250 = 2355sq feet to be sprayed about 1/20 of an acre so your 1-1.5 gallons would be about right.

    Your deepest, darkest secrets/unknown habitat hacks

    This is kind of random but take a solar yard light the kind that have the panel on top. Put 2-3 of these on the top of steel posts mid to late July within 30 yards of your stand along the edge of a crop bean field. The small amount of light they give out will stop the beans from maturing and...

    Round up rate on Asgrowbeans

    Use a full rate of RUP we use 64oz if its 41% or 48 oz of the 53%. I would let the oats get as tall as you think you need to protect the beans but the oats are basically a weed and competition to the yeild of your beans
