    Question on Turkey numbers….

    Like other have said, I too started trapping coons heavily 3 years ago after turkey numbers dropped to about ZERO. This spring I am back to seeing groups of 25-50 turkeys. Probably trapped 150+ coons in the last 3 years on just 80 acres. Still see a few coons on trailcams but nothing like...

    Things that make me go Hmmmmm....Land Prices

    I am a big fan of FXAIX. Like many index funds, the fees are so low that they don't really amount to anything. Most professional traders can't beat the SP500 on the long run 60% of americans are in the market from what I have read also BUT the amount of investment is HIGHLY slanted 93% of...

    Cedar caging and tree herbicide program

    I've transplanted a few thousand cedars for boundary and screening in the last 5 years. Works great. I place a ring of mulch around each tree each year and spray roundup 1x per year. No cages needed. The 1st year after transplanting is slow growing but then I get about 1.5-2' of growth...

    Future of CRP

    Maybe we are long overdue to take a hard look at changing crop insurance standards and other subsidies (ethanol) too. Reducing those subsidies- wouldn't that help reduce overproduction, increase land for sale, reduce gov spending, reduce chemical use/runoff, increase carbon sequestration etc...

    Whitetail Institute Alfalfa Rack?

    I've used Alfa Rack. It did what it was supposed to but anymore I just buy from a local seed dealer. Alfa Rack is a little pricey I have actually switched to clover blends(ladino and med red) for my orchard areas. Real easy to broadcast and less competion for the tree roots than alfalfa...

    Good Electronic Predator Call?

    Not exactly. I think they discontinued that model. The thing I liked about it was the remote and sound quality. It had the TX1000 transmitter. It also came loaded with some GREAT sounds. I tried about 5 other models and other companies and came back to foxpro. I use a X24 now and I like it...

    Good Electronic Predator Call?

    Gonna need to spend about about $300 to get a decent one. Might find a good used one on craigslist or ebay for less. Foxpro Fusion was one of my favorites for the money. Just checked ebay and found this...

    Making farm more attractive during archery season

    Here is a good article from meateater https://www.themeateater.com/wired-to-hunt/whitetail-scouting/best-food-sources-to-deer-hunt-in-october IMO- brassicas and soybeans don't draw much for early archery. The corn and oats I planted this year got absolutely smashed this year from Early Oct to...

    clethodim

    My experience is a couple weeks till you see much of an effect then another 2 weeks to finally kill grass to the ground. Slow but effective.

    What's next for Republicans?

    I would agree. Unfortunately politics stopped being about policy differences a long time ago. Now it is about feelings and persona.

    Everything is changing, But do we know it yet?

    I agree! I think the correction has already begun In addition to $4 corn and $11 beans, add persistent inflation that could very soon meet and exceed land appreciation. Also add that net opperating expenses still increased 7% last year in spite of fuel and fert prices declining. Too many...

    Everything is changing, But do we know it yet?

    oh I agree the long trend line will always be up, but to say there is NO CHANCE of any correction in the next 5 years is pretty bold talk from those guys. reminds we of what they said in 2000 about the tech sector or 2008 about housing Many of these younger guys have no real recollection of...

    Everything is changing, But do we know it yet?

    I made a very similar statement to the OP on a different site yesterday and nearly EVERY person who responded said there is only growth and blue sky as far as they eye can see. Only increasing land prices for at least the next 5 years they said.............and that was the very moment I became...
