    Rant of the Day

    It's basically baby steps towards UBI (universal basic income). Create the expectation/dependency - soon the voters will demand it. No doubt there are pockets of the economy that were gutted through no fault of their own but rather gov'ts shutdown mandates. But the broad brush style at which...

    Rant of the Day

    It doesn't matter if the name has a R or D behind it - Washington is just one big drunk fest pandering to the voters. If my WWII era father was alive today, he would be so pissed about how our the country has gotten so dysfunctional. Wake up America ...

    Timber Stand Improvment

    The plan composed by my district forester identified six different areas on our 110 acres of timber. Sizes differ quite a bit and were determined based on the characteristics of each area (mature oak timber with minimal understory, storm damaged area or EAB damaged(Emerald Ash Bore) trees, a...

    I had my district forester composed the exact same type of plan for our farm last fall. Good luck and take your time and be safe. Its a journey not a sprint.

    Timber Stand Improvment

    Another TSI beginner here. The guidance I got from my district forester was to drop trees <6" in diameter - girdle > 6" (mainly from a safety standpoint). Basic equipment list, (1) quality primary chainsaw that is relatively lightweight but not under powered (2) HELMET with face shield/hearing...

    Land value chart over time for iowa...

    "Also, doesn't seem like there are as many listings lately either" No doubt about it. Many more realtors now selling rec farms vs 5 yrs ago but listings also sure seem to be slowing. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Rough Winter

    Found this carcass yesterday. Torso length, hoof size and pedicle size has me guessing a 2.5 yo buck. There was a nice crop of 2.5s on cams this past fall - I hate finding these. Second winter in a row that I have found a dead buck carcass. [emoji35] Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    How cold is it in Iowa?

    I don't like the stress this frigid period is putting on our deer herd. We don't need any winter kill around my farm after 2019s EHD episode. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Show on all habitat, conservation, building a farm - no deer hunts - any interest?

    yes. the most recent series I watched that I found intriguing was "Whitetails from Scratch" by the Dukarts in MN (Deer Society). They had/have a series about how they approached improvements on their initial/first family land purchase which was approx. 100 acres. Instead of being about land...

    Owning a farm with limited cash flow, saving $ or Increasing income....

    I was blessed to be able to divert some inheritance funds (thanks Verne and Elizabeth) towards my farm purchase after watching the rec land market for numerous years. One of the best decisions I have ever made but wish I had taken the plunge 5-10 years earlier. In hindsight, I am confident...
