In the above example that is the current rate down from the “old rate” but new Crp under the current house version would be down another 20%. It seems to be the perfect bill from a politicians stand point. Add a bunch of acres to keep the conservation/environmental groups happy ,but cut the...

Take one of the leaves or what they look to be seed pods. If you split it with your thumb nail and find little seed it could be the bolt phase of turnip/brassica especially if the plot was that in the last few years. I have that in many plots now.

This debate has been going on for at least the last 20 years I have been here. With as many NR landowner friends as I have one part of me would like to see them have more opportunity for all the effort they put into managing there land. Another part of me the capitalist knows my net worth would...

They discussed this at the Wayne county CWD meeting and said they were working to provide dumpsters in some areas. They also were working with local land fills to be sure it was allowed. Incinerating may not work as they said the prions could survive 1500 degree heat. My plan would be land fill...

I have about 40 laid out to bid now some really nice trees so should have some current pricing by the end of the week.

I really play the wind if it’s not right I don’t go. If I have time I do change clothes to hunting clothes that are only worn hunting . But if push comes to shove and I am running late with a solid wind I have climbed out of my dozer and into my stand and had great hunts. Bottom line if you are...

I have never had a real job. Went to School for forestry at a small college in Northern Minnesota. After 2 years got an opportunity to work for an outfitter in Alaska ended up doing that for 9 years. Stayed with the Alaska Guiding long enough to get my Registered Guide/outfitter license. Had...

A lot of different situations and solutions. The simple problems are the one where the dogs are a threat to people or livestock in this instance no warning is nessecary. The threat to wildlife is one where the law doesn’t support shooting of dogs unless they are deemed feral and do not have a...

Osenbaughs for sure . Great people

My guess is it is accepted offer waiting on some contingency’s to be met so the closing can occcur. We often list them as pending/continue to show. This helps the seller by keeping some pressure to get the closing done as quickly as possible.

I would chose the 10th on. The Statistics also show the days most people hunt.

Read the above quoted post a little closer the 144 acres in Appanoose county brought 12,800 an acre.

I think those trends will continue mainly in the high quality 70 plus CSR type acres. There was an auction recently on about 144 acres of high quality tillable high bid was 12,800 an acre. Bought by an out of the area Ag investor. Also have have attended 2 separate auctions on great hunting...

As far as the company’s mentioned in the original post I am surprised that they mess with the guiding as the commission on 1 or 2 big sales would far exceed the profit from any type of guiding operation. I also think the progression works the opposite way ,meaning some one has a Outfitting or...

To answer your question another way a lot will depend on the value of your timber and the amount of effort to get the logs out. In average to good timber the total revenue from the logs could be split 50/50 between whoever is cutting and the landowner. If the value of the timber is above average...

It would be nice to see riparian buffer acreage enrolled at the rates the soil rent dictate regardless of crop history. Grass and or tree buffers do work and if they were enrolled as marginal pasture the rates actually went down. Have owned, farms that were enrolled in the tree buffer and are...

The only time we used it was on a newly cleared/tiled low field. Sprayed it first with RUP,AMS killed everything but the the sedge. Went and spoke with our local Agromist coop guy and followed his directions of spraying then discing,we then planted beans which did well. The sedge never came...

If that is a sedge which I believe it is. The best luck I have had is a product called Sedge Hammer it works best sprayed and then disced in "incorporated" . Round up will have very little Effect on Sedges.

If water is placed in an area, instead of being naturally collect such as in a pond from the rain is it ever considered baiting. I have no idea either way just wondering.

Prices are good a lot of guys looking bidding now should be the same this fall,winter. I have a bunch to cut can't wait to start.
