Please say that isn't a cornfield in late July

Tractor supply company in Ankeny

I'm friends with one. Smart guy, loves his outdoors. He shared that nearly all rattlesnakes today don't rattle due to evolution. Back in the day, there were bounties on rattlesnakes and the easiest way to find them was to listen. The silent ones survived the bounty roundups and here we are with...

Research shows that of you shoot a mature for before her buck fawn had weaned and left the herd, that buck will stay in the home range throughout its maturity. That could have been the case with the huge bachelor group he accumulated.

That's kind of what I was getting at. A single measurement doesn't give a lot of info. I was hoping to set a trap, it got sniffed out well. 24" main beam, 18" of mass, sheds off a 6 point buck, he'd be about 120 after spread credit. Certainly hoping he's still six point next year, would be quite...

24" main beam, what's the guess on the score?

You don't see a lot of obese Amish either. So healthcare costs will fall if you get people out moving more

Sat on a lit fire cracker

Pretty sure you can be fined for discarding in ditches

2.2 yesterday evening in western Iowa as well

I have to agree. If the words are attributed to my user account, I struggle knowing someone can edit what I have posted

I consider myself somewhat of a Google search wizard and this proved challenging, took at least 10 minutes to find. June 7th was the start date...

Looks like an over 3" deficit on my farm as of may 30 and zero rain first 7 days of June too, but we got a little over half inch yesterday finally

Half a section of rec ground just sold for $3300/acre in Jasper county

Neither .. find me a moderate and they will win general election in a landslide. They may struggle to get the nomination from the hardliners though

Agree, very much in line with my last paragraph up in post #49

It's like you are describing one of my friends. Triple taxing would fall on them (taxed money bought the ground, it will be taxed when inherited, and it will be taxed when sold) Here's the scenario with a little background to start. 40 acres a few miles east of Ankeny just sold for $75,000/acre...

Everyone knows someone with 1500+ and they then overestimate how many farms are of that size because of that. Within a 10-mile radius of my farm, there are three owners over 1500 acres. A 10-mile radius covers 200,000 acres. That's a lot of acres not held by a 1500+ landowner. If the family...

The current exemption is $12.92 million. It went UP another $850k this year. It doubles for husband/wife ($25.84 million) and the surviving spouse gets carryover if the full amount isn't dispersed after the first spouse passes. There is no way the whole 1500 acres in your hypothetical farm is...

Maybe the first domino is starting to fall. Vacation home sales are down 50% (per redfin data) from pre-pandemic levels. That's a monster dip considering they spiked during the pandemic and have now fallen below 2019 levels. Rec ground and vacation homes are similar in that discretionary...
