Once again an amazing harvest. I’m notsaying amazingly good, or amazingly dis-gusting, but simply amazing.

Review the 2011 crop year. One of thewettest and coolest springs, with soybeansand even corn still being planted in June,sometimes late June. Crop chances? “Fifty-fifty” were the odds at the local coffeeshop.

Then July with generous amounts ofheat, high humidity and an incrediblyrapid accumulation of growing degreedays; unfortunately right through thecritical pollinating period. My area alsogot a July first blast of 85 to 90 mphwinds — 24 trees down at my place —plus hail. At the local coffee shop, however, the oddswere still 50-50 for a decent crop.

August was “cozy” with just about the right stufffrom Mother Nature. Nowmy coffee shop gang waseven getting a bit excitedabout their crops. Com-modity prices scratchinghigher virtually everyother day helped reinforcebubbly moods. Septemberstarted almost as good.

Then Mother Nature’s cru-elest trick: on Sept. 15, 26 to28 degree temps blanketedMinnesota, northern Iowa,South Dakota and North Dakota. Suddenly going tothe local coffee shop was a challenge.

However, thanks to September cranking out dayafter day of ideal weather, crops did some readjust-ing. Granted, corn that didn’t “black layer” beforethat September frost is coming in light. Yet farmersin early October were talking 200-bushel yields ...and 120-bushel yields ... sometimes in the same field.Tilers are having another bonanza.

Will there be enough seed for 2012? Sort of dependsupon which seed company rep you talk with. ThankGod for carryover seed. For certain South Americanproduction will be big this winter. I recently visited alocal soybean seed conditioning plant. Last year 98percent of the delivered soybean seed crop graded out“good to go.” Not so this year. His early prediction isonly about 90 percent of the seed crop will make it;and for certain lots of smaller-sized soybeans (corn,too) for the 2012 planting season.

But life goes on. As ideal and “easy” as the 2010harvest was, this 2011 harvest could wrap up even

sooner. Our early October splurge of 85degree temps will do that. Even beet har-vest was temporarily stopped. Pilingbeets is early October when Minnesotatemps are 85-plus just doesn’t work.Check your ‘wellness’ card

Being a veteran Minnesota senior citi-zen, but fortunately not yet beinginvolved in the prescription medicine rou-tine, it seems my duty to share a real-lifestory involving my brother-in-law. He, too,is a senior citizen and unfortunately he’sexperiencing some health problems.

Here’s his story as he shared it withme:“I was having trouble getting my

breath, and my heart was pounding. So I went to seethe doctor; he sent me to a cardiologist. And fromhim I learned I have a heart valve problem. But healso assured me that a drug called Flecainide could

help stabilize my heart.That was OK with me sohe asked me where Iwanted my prescriptionfilled.”

He opted for a nation-wide pharmacy “since itwas right on my wayhome.

“When my prescriptionwas ready I asked howmuch it cost. The phar-

macist said $165. I said, ‘I hope I don’t have to stayon that drug the rest of my life.’ He said, ‘More thanlikely you will, but if you want to sign up for the Pre-scription Savers Club, we can save you money.’

“The Club dues were $20 but that dropped the costof this $165 drug to $55. So I wrote a $75 check forboth Club dues and the Flecainide and left the store.On my way home I started thinking how easy it wasto drop $110 in the cost of my prescription medicinejust by joining this club.

“But it also made me curious about the ‘real cost’ ofthese prescription medicines. So I stopped at a localdrug store not far from my house to see what itwould cost there. The local pharmacist just aboutknocked me off my feet when he said $18.20. And hetold me his cost for that particular drug was about$12. I decided to some more checking so I stopped atanother local store which also had a pharmacydepartment. They, too, told me the cost would beabout $18 to fill my prescription. Another big store

A ‘fifty-fifty’ harvest

LAND MINDS

By Dick Hagen

OPINION

See MINDS, pg. 3A

Granted, corn that didn’t ‘blacklayer’ before that September frostis coming in light. Yet farmers inearly October were talking 200-bushel yields ... and 120-bushelyields ... sometimes in the samefield.

MINDS, from pg. 2Awas nearby. I stopped and the price forthis drug was about $75.”

I’m sharing this for the simple factthat if your life has moved into theprescription drug era it might beworthwhile to check with more thanone provider when it comes to fillingyour particular prescription. Justmaybe the “big name” providers aren’tyour low cost providers. For my friend,needless to say, his local drug store isnow his No. 1 provider.

Unfortunately doctors aren’t awareof these remarkable disparities in pre-scription medicine costs. Even if theywere, professional ethics and potentiallitigation issues make it difficult fordoctors to suggest providers of pre-scription medicine. So my advice issimply don’t assume the big-namestores are the best buy when it comesto filling a medical prescription.

Our “socialized medicine” transitionthat seems to be sweeping acrossAmerica may have some initial finan-cial appeal but huge scams within theAmerican drug industry also seem tobe occurring. We know all too well whoultimately pays the bill.A humorous note

This particular anecdote originatedwith my other brother-in-law, longretired from farming and now enjoy-ing “fairway privileges” at his localgolf course. Which means he and hiscronies can show up just about anytime (except Ladies Day) with almostimmediate access to their tee box.That is, when health permits.

He recently gave his dear bride a bitof a challenge when he mentioned atbedtime some significant discomfort in

his upper chest. Fouryears ago he had majorsurgery replacing a faultyheart valve so little wonder his wifewas immediately alarmed.

They quickly huddled. It would take15 to 20 minutes for the ambulance toget to their farm. She could drive himto the local hospital quicker, so shedid. At the hospital the immediatediagnosis was ambulance delivery to aSioux Falls hospital for a possibleheart stent procedure.

I’ve always had some regard (andsuspicion) about this particularbrother-in-law’s weird sense of humor.For example, in describing his ambu-lance trip on Highway 23 from Mar-shall, Minn., to Sioux Falls, S.D., hewondered if, when the local ambulancecrew purchased their ambulance, theyfirst measured the wheelbase tomatch it up against the highwayjoints.

He ventured, “I think they musthave because as the ambulance spedto Sioux Falls with me strappedtightly onto a gurney, which I’m cer-tain had less than one inch of padding,I felt every Highway 23 joint thatentire 100-mile jaunt. And Highway23 won’t win any blue ribbons forbeing smooth and shock-free, espe-cially in an ambulance speeding 75mph and faster.”

During his unexpected ambulancejourney, his mind apparently got rest-less. “As the ambulance sped down thehighway,” he said, “I thought, howstrange — here I am potentially facingsome serious heart challenges and mybody is feeling every whack of thishighway. But if I were dead and being

transported by a hearse,I’d be in a velvety, cush-

ion-lined container insidean $80,000 Cadillac with zero highwaynoise and a suspension system so per-fect the highway would be a virtualpillow.”

Well, nice to have a brother-in-lawwith a sense of humor, weird as it maybe. Yep, he had a stent inserted andwas back home the next day. In fact, aday later he was assisting the BelviewLegion grilling hamburgers duringSeptember Sod Days. As you mightsuspect, he doesn’t always listen toadvice from his doctor either.King of crops

On a different note, my hometown ofOlivia, Minn., recently reinforced itsclaim as the Corn Capital of Min-nesota. The Bird Island-Olivia-LakeLillian-Danube FFA chapter cut cornstalks (courtesy of Mycogen Seed) andset up corn shocks in front of 18 down-town business establishments. One of

Minnesota’s state FFA officers wasvisiting the BOLD chapter so he, too,got involved in making Olivia lookjust a bit more corny.

My real home town of Northwood,Iowa, started the same “fall dress-up”campaign a few years back and mer-chants really get into it with pump-kins, ribbons, strings of beads, evenminiature Christmas lights decorat-ing each corn shock. Indeed, it’s quitea sight and what better way to showwhy corn is indeed the King of Crops.

A closing thought suggests we onceagain be thankful to our Lord for adecent and amazingly rapid harvest.Fall tillage, too, has suddenly rampedup. Unfortunately community firetrucks have been chasing combinefires far too often.

OPINION

To the Editor:With interest I read the Back Roads

story on Leslie Township Hall meet-ings (“Government at its best,” onlineat http://bit.ly/theland2011-0923 —Sept. 23 issue, 2A).

I live in rural America and knowabout town hall meetings, a basic unitof government. The writer of the storyquoted Dennis Miller as saying “thattownship government is truly demo-cratic” and is “grassroots democracy.”

I have a question: When they starttheir meeting with the Pledge of Alle-giance to the Flag, do they say “I pledge

allegiance to the flag of the UnitedStates of America and to the ‘democ-racy’ for which it stands”? I bet theysay “Republic.”

If government at its best is grass-roots democracy, then we are in trou-ble.

Our founding fathers gave us a Con-stitutional Republic, not a democracy.The word democracy is not in the Con-stitution. Government at its best is aConstitutional Republic, rule by law,not a majority rule as in a democracy.Tom SullivanGranada, Minn.

The Minnesota Soy-bean Growers Associa-tion disagrees with legis-lation introduced in Congress Oct. 5that attempts to reduce the Renew-able Fuels Standard based on arbi-trary thresholds.

“This bill is poor public policy thatsells farmers and the public short, andwe hope it goes nowhere in Congress,”said MSGA President Kurt Krueger, aRothsay, Minn., farmer. “Farmers areproud of the contribution we are mak-ing to our nation’s energy independ-ence by producing corn and soybeansfor the nation’s growing renewablefuels industry. We are giving con-sumers an alternative to petroleum,while continuing to meet domestic andinternational demand for food andlivestock feed. Farmers have the tech-nology and the will to be reliable sup-

pliers of quality crops forall of our customers — food

companies, livestock pro-ducers, international buyers and theAmerican renewable fuels industry.”

The bill that has many farmers, aswell as the nation’s renewable fuelsindustry, upset was introduced byReps. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., and JimCosta, D-Calif.

“Those against renewable fuelswould like people to believe biofuelsdivert grain away from the livestockindustry causing feed prices toincrease, and that’s just not true,”Krueger said. “Production of biodieselfrom soybeans and other oils actuallyresults in production of more soy-beans, which means more soybeanmeal for the livestock market. The big-ger the demand from the renewablefuels industry, the more soybeans we

grow and the more soybean meal thatis available for livestock feed.”

Krueger added that the renewablefuels seem to be a target while subsi-dies for the petro-leum industrycontinue.“Biodiesel andethanol seem likean easy targetlately because oftax credits theyreceive, but thepetroleum indus-try has been collectingsubsidies for over a hundred years.”

The MSGA has played a leadershiprole in development of the renewablefuels industry because the organizationbelieves biofuels are an excellent optionfor diversifying the nation’s energyportfolio and furthering energy secu-rity. Farmers in the organization playeda lead role in launching the nation’sbiodiesel industry through their work

with the Minnesota legislature in 2002on the nation’s first legislation to createa biofuel blend in diesel fuel. “EPA hasjust designated biodiesel as America’s

first advanced bio-fuel, and we wouldhate to see our hardwork for the envi-ronment and energyindependence side-tracked by poor pol-icy, such as this billintroduced in Con-gress,” Krueger said.

OPINION

To the Editor:The Back Roads story on Page 32A of

your Sept. 23 issue, “Government at itsBest,” if it were true, would beabsolutely fantastic. (Online athttp://bit.ly/theland2011-0923.) How-ever, with the misinformation provided,I feel the author was “duped” as only theopinions of the town board are stated.

The photograph is also misleading.The treasurer, during the last fewmeetings I attended, was seated withhis back to the audience. In addition,the only time the citizens of the town-ship are allowed to see any financialinformation is during the annual meet-ing. A two-sided copy of what they pur-port to be a financial statement issometimes posted on the wall, but nocopies are provided (unless you wish topay the high price they charge) and youneed to stand on your head to be able toread the back page of the document.

There is no democracy in Leslie Town-ship. These men rule with an iron hand.Any individual that dares to oppose adecision is met with arrogance, harass-ment and even threats posted in thelocal newspapers. They abide by theirown laws and regulations, and disre-gard any laws regarding shorelanddevelopment or road construction, withone of the supervisors declaring himselfthe “lawyer of Leslie Township” despite

the fact he has no license to practice law.Threats are more his style.

As noted in the letter to the editor bythe chairman of Rapidan Township,more efficient and up-to-date proce-dures for record keeping do exist andshould be implemented. However, theclerk refuses to allow any sort of wordprocessing program to be installed on“his” computer, even when it is offeredfor free. It is more important that thegames he purchases are available. Theminutes of meetings are a total dis-grace. Even his own name is misspelledat least 50 percent of the time. The con-tents of these supposed minutes areonly allowed when a supervisor tellsthe clerk what should be included.

Why should these men update theirprocedures when they can reap thebenefit of the mileage expense for tripsto town to place an ad or check the bal-ances in bank accounts? At the end ofthe year, those trips generate muchmore than a pretty penny. Reality isthat during a recent state audit, it wasdiscovered that three of the boardmembers weren’t even bonded.

Yes, I agree that township govern-ment should be “American governmentat its best” but in Leslie Township itdoes not exist.Deborah J. DowellOsakis, Minn.

Letter: ‘Roads’ examplenot government at its best

When Chairman FrankLucas gaveled the full Houseag committee to order Oct. 12,ranchers, farmers and otheraggies who depend on com-modity futures markets toprice their crops, livestock anddreams might have thoughtthe hearing would center onwhat its title suggested: “ToReview Legislative ProposalsAmending Title VII of theDodd-Frank Wall StreetReform and Consumer Protec-tion Act.”

The hearing would do nosuch thing.

Two days before, on Oct. 10, the Committee’sMajority Staff circulated a seven-page memo to allmembers that outlined seven legislative proposalsto amend the law designed to rein in Americanequity and futures markets’ excess that nearlyderailed the global economy in 2008. (Read thememo at www.farmandfoodfile.com.)

Each of the seven proposals, though, sported twofaces. The first was really a mask for the second: alegitimate question or concern about some aspectof Dodd-Frank’s trading rules.

The second was the real deal: a primer on how tokill Dodd-Frank by sticking it with a thousand lit-tle pins — amendments, hearings, studies, cost-benefit analysis, lawsuits — and letting it slowlybleed to an irrelevant death.

No muss, no fuss, no fingerprints.And, of course, no reform and no protection

against the swindlers, crooks and banksters whoskinned every American in 2008.

That was easily confirmed by the so-called “Wit-ness List,” experts called to “testify” in the Oct. 12“hearing.” They were bleating sheep in Congress’cash-green, astro-turf pasture, invited to endorsethe Majority’s biases and fertilize its false choices.

The Oct. 10 memo provides the proof. For exam-ple, the memo goes into great detail over the role ofthe Commodity Futures Trading Commission insetting margin requirements for “swaps dealersand major swap participants that are not banks.”

It then notes that the Majority’s amendment “HR2682 clarifies congressional intent by providingexplicit exemption from margin requirements fortransactions involving end-users that qualify forthe end-users clearing exemption.”

How do we know that?By who will be coming to explain it, says the

memo; Brenda Boultwood speaking on behalf ofsomething called “The Coalition for DerivativesEnd-Users.”

If you think that Ms. Boultwood, an end-userspeaking for “The Coalition for End-Users” on anamendment to exempt “margin requirements fortransactions involving end-users,” might favor suchan exemption, well, you’re catching on to how theBig Boys win the regulatory game. They simply fix

the rules before the game even starts.But let’s not pick on Ms. End-User.Other witnesses invited to speak in favor of com-mittee amendments to weaken, rewrite or simplyjunk Dodd-Frank language were such well-known aggies as Chris Giancarlo, who testified

for the Wholesale Markets Brokers AssociationAmericas; Bela Sanevich, representing the Ameri-can Benefits Council, and Douglass Williams, theprez and CEO of Atlantic Capital Bank.

And who represented you or spoke in favor of theDodd-Frank reforms?

Come on, you know the answer to that one.Maybe the best proof of these phony-we’re-here-

to-help hearings comes courtesy of the alwaysbumping gums of House ag chair Frank Lucas. Inhis opening statement Lucas used jobs as the pre-

tense to plow up largeparts of Dodd-Frankand reseed it as the fer-tile playground of thebanksters.

“It is my hope,” Lucasgravely intoned, “thatthe agencies will listen

to the comments (and) …feedback they’ve gotten

from market participants and from Congress. Butwith unemployment stuck at 9 percent, I’m notwilling to just stand by and keep my fingerscrossed that the flaws in the proposed rules willbe fixed.”

The really worrisome part of that perfect non-sense isn’t that Lucas and the other water carri-ers on the committee sponsored this loophole festi-val.

No, the real worry is that they actually believemarkets regulate themselves. How’d that work outin 2008?

Ray Winter uses his new mechanical harvester to pick grapes at his Indian Island Winery and Vine-yards.

By TIM KROHNMankato Free Press

NEW ULM, Minn.— Georg and Paula Marti and their fam-ily have spent the past month making daily visits to theirvineyard and keeping in touch with 20 other Minnesota grow-ers who provide grapes for their Morgan Creek Vineyardsnear New Ulm, Minn.

“It’s a busy time. The grapes have to be picked just at theright time,” said Paula Marti. “The crush crews will work untilearly October. Crushing 100,000 pounds of fruit is exhausting.”

The same scene is taking place near Janesville, where Rayand Lisa Winter and their family have been harvesting andproducing wine at Indian Island Winery and Vineyard.

And near Kasota, Kent Schwickert’s crew is harvesting thefirst grapes and making the first wines at the ChankaskaCreek Ranch & Winery, which opens next spring.

The three wineries and several new vineyards being startedacross the region are part of a burgeoning wine industry that istransforming tourism and entertainment offerings and bring-ing a new type of agriculture to corn and soybean country.

The three wineries will produce more than 100,000 bottles ofwine combined.

For all the rapid growth in the vineyard and winery indus-try, it’s still in its infancy in southern Minnesota and the state.

“We don’t see a saturation point. Less than 2 percent of thewine consumed in Minnesota is made in Minnesota,” said RonBarnes, president of the Minnesota Grape Growers Association.

“There’s really a huge potential for becoming a much biggerindustry.”Winery trails

“We will really be a mecca for southern Minnesota for thosewho like doing wine tours, wine tastings and seeing that seg-ment of the ag industry,” said Anna Thill, head of the GreaterMankato (Minn.) Convention and Visitors Bureau.

A survey of visitors to Mankato this year found that 6 per-cent said they visited a winery while they were here. “Butwhen you asked people what they’d like to do if they returnedhere, that jumped to 35 percent who said they’d like to visit awinery,” Thill said.

She envisions more formal tours to area wineries, includingbus tours.

“I think Mankato will be the hub, where most people staywith the spokes going out to the different wineries.”

Tourists haven’t waited for formal tours to be put together.“We already get a lot of people from the Cities just coming

down on their own,” Ray Winter said. “If there were toursavailable, they’d love to do it because they don’t have to drive.”

The key to growing tourism and a successful wine-makingindustry, say winery owners, is maintaining quality.

“Minnesota is getting some reputation in the wine industry,”Schwickert said. “These cold-hardy grapes the University ofMinnesota is developing are getting attention from Minnesotaall the way to New York.

“You put good winemakers in front of good fruit, you’ll get areputation.”

When the Martis began their vineyard and winery in theearly ’90s — just the fifth winery in the state at the time —they did it with an eye toward tourism and education.

VINEYARDS, from pg. 8Athe state in this area, and we haven’tmarketed that enough.

“There’s just tons of future on show-casing the wine and food industryright here on the Bend of the River,”Paula Marti said.Chankaska Creek Ranch & Winery

Drew Horton opens the plug on anoak barrel and invites a visitor to sniff.

“That’s French oak. Now smell thisone, it’s Hungarian oak.”

The wood scents are slightly differ-

ent — scents that will provide subtledifferences in flavor when the 300-bot-tle barrels are filled with wine to agefrom four to 16 months.

Horton, the winemaker at the newChankaska Creek Ranch & Winery,was brought on board late last year bySchwickert and is producing the win-ery’s first wines this fall.

With 18 years in the California winebusiness, Horton has ambitious plansto make a variety of wines in tradi-tional tanks and in the oak barrels.

He so far has 85 new and used oak

barrels. “The new oak produces astronger flavor than the used barrels.”While French oak has long been usedfor blending wines, the winery also isusing a variety of American oak barrels.

A longtime wine connoisseur,Schwickert and some partners havespent the past few years building avineyard and winery off Highway 22near St. Peter that will be open forbusiness next spring.

After three years, the 3,900 vines onseven acres of rolling hillside atChankaska Creek are producing theirfirst grapes and Horton is producingthe first batches of wine.

The young plants produce less thanmature vineyards and a very wetspring set production back from whatwas expected, Schwickert said.

Their vineyard will cover about one-third of the wine production withgrapes also purchased from other Min-nesota vineyards and some from Wash-ington and California.

Chankaska Creek plans to initiallyproduce nearly 40,000 bottles of wine— about what other area wineriesmake annually — and increase pro-duction in coming years.

A new production facility was built anda retail building is being finished thisfall, around the site of the former Coun-try Pub dinner club.The winery is namedfor Chankaska Creek, which flowsthrough the property, including past his-toric farm buildings that are being incor-porated into the winery setting.

The 7,500-square-foot winery build-ing and retail store is on top of a hilloverlooking the farm site and creek.

“We’ve been focused on the buildingand grounds, shoreline restoration, con-structing walking bridges,” Schwickertsaid of this past summer’s work.

The master plan for the 15-acre siteincludes a 10-acre vineyard, trail sys-tem, sculpture park, amphitheater andindoor and outdoor event spaces.

Chankaska Creek will focus on host-ing festivals, community events, corpo-rate events and weddings.Morgan Creek Vineyards

One of the founding wineries in thestate, Morgan Creek Vineyards has fam-ily ties that run far back in the alcoholindustry — Georg Marti comes from theSchell’s beer brewing family in New Ulm.

They still label themselves as asmall family winery — they produceabout 36,000 bottles a year — but theirimpact has been large on the industry.They have a long list of awards for

their wines; they produce private labelwines for Fire Lake Grill in Minneapo-lis; they’ve provided mentoring to anumber of start-ups; and they areinvestor/owners in the MinnesotaState Fair wine exhibit, which foryears has been housed in a wing of theHorticulture building.

The fair exhibit — which providestasting and glasses of wines for sale —has been so popular, the State Fairmade an unprecedented offer consider-ing there is a long list of people hopingto get any piece of real estate insidethe fairgrounds. “The Fair Board gaveus the opportunity to buy a buildingthere, which we are doing,” Marti said.

The building, formerly the EpiphanyChurch Diner, is in a prime locationand directly across from the Agricul-ture building.Indian Island Winery

Ray Winter’s roots are in the vine-yard business.

He started a vineyard next to hisfarmhouse more than a decade ago andhas been one of the go-to guys for thosewanting to start their own vineyards.

The vineyard, now more than 13acres, produces about 5 tons of grapesper acre. The family also sells nurserystock to other growers.

While vineyards are often planted insandier soil, not black farmland, Win-ter planted his vineyards on his primefarmland.

“We were worried about putting it onour best land, but I’m glad we did.Some disagree, but I think the betterthe land, the better they do. It’s likeany crop, you have to feed your crop toget a quality crop.”

While beginning in the vineyardbusiness, the Winter family got into thewinery side of the business in a big waytwo years ago when they constructed alarge winery and retail store nearby ona hill that was once a summer huntingcamp for Native Americans. The familyhas found many artifacts over theyears, and the Indian theme flowsthrough the artwork created for thewine bottle labels, on the menu (elkand buffalo burgers) and in the decor.

The Indian Island wines have donewell in competitions, including 12medals won this year as well as win-ning the prestigious Governor’s Cup, atraveling trophy.

“Business has been really good.Weather affects things on the weekends,but we built a big building so when theweather’s not good, we can still get 150to 200 people inside,” Winter said.

Like any crop, better land makes better grapesTH

By DICK HAGENThe Land Staff Writer

Farmers are getting better at pro-moting their profession, both to U.S.food consumers and customers in for-eign countries. But much more needsto be done, especially in view of themisrepresentation of U.S. agricultureby various activist groups such as theHumane Society of the United States,People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, etc.

A new “power voice” on behalf of U.S. farmers is anational organization called the U.S. Farmers &Ranchers Alliance which is rapidly bringing to thetable all members of U.S. agriculture including allcommodity groups, virtually all major agriculturalmanufacturing and marketing companies, the farmpress and many ag advertising agencies. The singlemission: A unified voice on behalf of agriculturebeing told to all Americans.

Brian Greenslit, a Renville County (Minn.) farmerand USFRA board member, said, “you are entitledto your opinion, but you are not entitled to misrep-resent knowledge and science.”

Greenslit is also a board member of the Min-nesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council andan energetic advocate of farmers, speaking up onbehalf of their profession.

He admitted the suspicion, even cynicism, aboutagriculture and U.S. farmers. “Agriculture is losing itsface to groups that know little about farming and food

production. Yet there is a growing con-cern about food health and food secu-rity. Consumers have a right to knowabout their food sources. USFRA isnow telling that story, and we as pro-ducers should be pleased and proud ofthis great message.”

Greenslit shared his com-ments Sept. 22 at the CargillBuilding on the University of

Minnesota’s St. Paul campus, where the univer-sity’s Agricultural Club plus the Minnesota CornGrowers Association, the Minnesota SoybeanResearch & Promotion Council, the MinnesotaPork Board and the Minnesota Farm Bureauhosted a “USFRA Food Dialogues ViewingParty.” In addition to local speakers, the agendaalso included viewing a national panel discus-sion taking place “live” in Washington, D.C.More awareness of food safety

Karen Richter, a Montgomery, Minn., pork producer,former president of the Minnesota Pork Board andcurrent board member of the National Pork Board,said, “I think there is much more awareness today byvirtually all consumers about food safety becausethere are so many activist groups, Hollywood celebri-ties and others. The speed of information — both cor-rect and incorrect information — gets out there virtu-ally instantly anymore via Facebook, Twitter,YouTube, Google, etc.

“When I was a kid food ‘recalls’ were virtually non-existent. Today a food recall is instantly in the face of

everyone. And that is as it should be. We have morerecalls today because our food testing methods aremuch more advanced. But invariably these recalls tar-nish much of agriculture when often just a single sourceis the culprit.Yet today we have the safest food supply inthe world, and also the most affordable,” Richter said.

“Unfortunately con-sumers don’t want to hearabout the science and thetechnology used by Amer-ica’s farmers. Instead wehave become an emotionand ‘opinion-based’ society.Sound bites juice up theconsumer; facts and dataare simply fluff.”

Duane Alberts, MinnesotaFarm Bureau vice presidentand Pine Island-area dairy

farmer, added: “recognizing that our customers areNo. 1 in providing for our livelihood needs to becomemore the focus of us farmers. We’re very good at pro-ducing, but our concerns should go beyond our farmgate because ultimately the customer is always right.”

Julie Tesch, Minnesota Agricultural EducationLeadership Council executive director, mentionedthe positive response the past two years generatedby Ag Awareness Day on the U of M Minneapoliscampus. “Today’s University students are genuinelyinterested in their food. And they seem to have agrowing awareness of starvation and food shortagesin various parts of the world. This seems to be spark-ing some interest in Minnesota agriculture. Yes,there is tremendous misunderstanding and igno-rance about this business of farming.

“That’s why we constantly remind our ag ed stu-dents, in fact all students on the St. Paul campus, theimportance of being ‘teachers’ every day, not justduring their working hours in the classroom. Some-times the best ideas for teaching come from dis-agreements from other students.”Value-added industry

State Sen. Doug Magnus reminded the audiencethat Minnesota agriculture is indeed big businessgenerating over $16 billion in revenues this pastyear and a No. 6 ranking among all states. “This hasmore than doubled in the past eight years. We’re alsonow doing over $6 billion in agricultural exports tocountries around the world. In fact, just the exportvalue of Minnesota soybeans today equals the totalvalue of the entire crop 10 years ago.

“In our state legislature I like to emphasize our TripleE focus: exports, environment and energy. At the fed-eral level, I’m of the opinion that the EnvironmentalProtection Agency is causing undue consternation dic-tating what we should be doing without even asking.”

Magnus feels the future of energy will be heavilytied to agriculture. “I look upon water as the ‘new oil’of the Midwest because there’s little doubt in my mindthat water more and more is becoming a limiting fac-tor in much of our country’s production agriculture.

“We’ve just simply have got to embrace technology. Ouragriculture future is very bright filled with both great

MESSAGE, from pg. 12Achallenges and great opportunities.”

Al Juhnke, aide to Sen. Al Frankenand former chairman of the Min-nesota House of Representatives agri-culture committee, said, “it’s impor-tant that we keep reminding ourpeople of the value of agriculture inthis state. One of every five jobs in theentire state stems from agriculture.Minnesota is rich because of threetremendous industries: agriculture,timber and mining. Note that allthree are products of the land. Ourland is our greatest resource.

“In D.C. high on the agenda of Sen.Franken and many others is draftingof the next farm bill. We need to keepreminding others that the farm bill isless than one-tenth of 1 percent of thefederal budget and 74 percent of ourfarm bill currently is dedicated toschool lunch programs and othernutrition concerns. Only 18 percent ofthat total budget is earmarked forcommodity programs, crop insuranceand conservation. And that leaves amiserly 8 percent for research andrural development across America. Yetresearch is absolutely critical to thefuture of America and much of the

world.”He noted that President

Obama’s “Committee of 12”which by Dec. 13 is supposedto have the answer to thenation’s debt and revenueproblems is mostly a commit-tee of non-farm people.

Don Baloun, NaturalResources Conservation Service stateconservationist, pointed out that theNRCS is the only U.S. Department ofAgriculture agency that works with pri-vate land owners saying the Environ-mental Quality Improvement Programcontinues to be a major success of farm-ers upgrading the overall efficiencies oftheir farming operations. Plus becauseof the growing popularity of locally pro-duced foods, organic farming is nolonger a niche market in Minnesota.Ag important to retailers’ success

Relating to Washington’s role in foodand agriculture, Sara Wyant, Agri-Pulse Communications, referred toWalmart as now the No. 1 food retailerin America. “And if Walmart comes toyour farm and asks if you can meettheir demands on producing certainfood items, it really won’t matter whatthe USDA and other federal agencystandards are. Like it or not, the realmarketing power of U.S. agriculture israpidly moving into the hands of Wal-mart, Target and other major retailerswho’ve added food to their productlineup.”

Tres Bailey, Walmart representative

on the live feed from Washing-ton D. C., said, “the livelihood ofU.S. farmers has become key inour total business matrix. Ourtag line reads ‘Save Money,Live Better’. There is no singlesupplier, be it China or else-where that can best provideour needs. That’s why ahealthy, thriving U.S. agricul-

ture is important to our success in thefood industry.”

Bob Stallman, American FarmBureau Federation president, alsocommenting from the D.C. feed said,“as robust as American agriculture hasbecome in recent years, even more andbetter research is the key for feedingthe world in the next years. In America90 billion pounds of food are wastedeach year.

“There needs to be more trans-parency in government. It’s happeningin agriculture. But the question con-tinues ‘How much do consumers wantto know, or need to know?’ Food secu-rity has rapidly become more impor-tant to the world than energy security.Consumers are willing to pay $30,000to $40,000 or more for a new auto withall the whistles and gadgets. But theyaren’t willing to pay more for food,regardless the technology and nutri-tional science behind that production.”

According to Stallman, 25,000 peopledie daily because of lack of food. By2050, nearly 3 billion more people willbe populating this earth.

Stallman: How much do consumers want, need to know?

INSULATE Personal Service on New & ExistingCattle Barns, Shops & Homes

By DICK HAGENThe Land Staff Writer

Neil Anderson has been involvedin the building moving business for10 years. That’s nothing out of theordinary, until you realize that hewas 12 when he got started.

Now, Anderson is established inthe Paynesville, Minn.,-area with asix-man crew. He used to farm part-time with his dad and uncle, as well as playing in aband in his earlier life.

He grew up on a Polk County dairy farm nearGlenwood, Minn., and credits his start in the build-ing moving business to an uncle who did housemaintenance work and also moved a few garages.

“He’s a carpenter and a dry-wall guy. He’d hearabout a single-car garage being available whenremodeling a house. He didn’t have any equipmentbut he knew we had alow-boy machinerytrailer. He’d ask me tobring the trailer tothis garage location.He had the jacks andjust like that I wassuddenly in the mov-ing business helpingmy uncle,” said Ander-son, who admits hewas a “big” 12-year oldstanding 5 feet 8inches and weighing165 pounds. Hestarted driving tractorwhen he was 8.

Going through highschool, Anderson wasfrequently helping hisuncle Ken Jorgensonmove some buildings, usually old garages that UncleKen would pick up for $100, do some fixing up onthem, and resell for quite a few more bucks.

“So this was good experience for me. I was makinga few bucks while in high school. My parents saidthat if I wanted to go to college, I had to earn themoney. I planned on studying architecture at theUniversity of Minnesota but when I walked the cam-pus, sometimes in tunnels leading from one buildingto another, I said to myself, ‘this is ridiculous. I don’twant to live in the city’,” he recalled.

Instead he went to the vocational college inAlexandria, Minn., taking a two-year carpentrycourse. That led him into starting his own remodel-ing business, plus back to part-time work on his par-ents’ farm. Meanwhile, Anderson had a special han-kering for music and started writing music plusputting together his own band.

“So when I was 20 years old I was starting a con-struction business plus a band. Yes, that was a bit over-whelming, especially since I was still helping on ourfarm (about 2,500 acres) also plus our 80-cow dairy. Itwas sort of crazy so in late-2001 I decided to move toPaynesville and do my own thing,” Anderson said.

Starting young moved Anderson into profession

MOVER, from pg. 15AThe band business was clicking. They

were doing 100 events per year includ-ing some State Fair events like theArabian Horse Show, the Departmentof Natural Resources stage, plusnumerous county fairs.

The busy band business clearly toldAnderson he couldn’t hold a regularjob. He needed the flexibility to leaveon a Thursday afternoon, for example,to set up for a weekend wedding event,or a street dance, or acounty fair. “Just maybegetting into the buildingbusiness was theanswer,” he said.

Paging through anewspaper he spotted anitem that read: GiveAway Free, Single CarGarage. “I called the guyup. I drove up to SaukCentre (Minn.) to look atthe garage. He told me Ihad three weeks to get itout. So I put an ad backin that same paper read-ing ‘Single Car Garage, $1,300’. I had acall right away so now I borrowed myGranddad’s Donohue flatbed trailer,got some railroad ties for crossstringers, handy man jacks to lift it.That’s how I got into the professionalbuilding moving business,” he said.

He related that he soon had 50 to 60names of people calling him askingabout particular buildings to buy andmove. After moving to Paynesville andbuying a “fixer-up” house, he and hiswife started attending an Assembly ofGod church in nearby Cold Spring.

“I met some fantastic people at thischurch. I told them I was a musicianwith my own band plus I moved build-ings. Soon these people were telling meof friends, or relatives who wanted abuilding moved. So just through thisnetwork of people that I met at church,my building business really picked upmomentum.

“I thought to myself, ‘If God gives methe opportunity to bid a job, he’s cer-tainly going to give me the wisdom ofhow to bid a job. And if I get the job,he’s certainly going to give me themeans to do it,” Anderson said.

That faith continues to work in hislife. He said his first garage was 12-feetby 20 feet and “it scared me to death. Imoved it at night (less traffic to con-tend with); I hoped it wouldn’t fall off

the trailer. This year we moved a 60-foot by 120-foot machine shed. Thatrequired 100-foot beams because thisstructure contained about three semi-loads of steel framing.”

What’s the longest distance move sofar? About 330 miles for a cabin movedfrom Paynesville to Greenbush, Minn.,(15 miles from the Canadian border).Owned by a local doctor on a nearbylake, this cabin measured only 20-feetwide and 32-feet long. Anything over

16 feet wide requires apermit and that meansbeing a licensed build-ing mover. To get alicense to move a build-ing you have to also buyinsurance to cover anypotential damageclaims, etc.

Anderson still has allhis band equipment ofspeakers, lighting, etc.,and still does gather hismusicians to do a fewspecial events eachyear. A barn on his prop-erty houses all his

musical gear. This fall a local churchwas using his barn for a special service.

How’s the building-moving business?Perhaps the best appraisal is Ander-son’s comment that he regularly turnsdown opportunities to move buildings.His best advertising vehicle these daysis his own website: www.anderson-buildingmovers.com. “We get 60 to 70hits a day, from all over Minnesota plussurrounding states,” he said.

According to Anderson, there wereabout 70 licensed building movers inMinnesota in 2002 and today about 50.Of those 50, he estimates only about 20to 25 are capable of doing big projects.Currently about 50 percent of his work isagricultural buildings and because of thestrong farm economy, he’s doing quite afew upgrading of older machine sheds.

“Built in the 1960s, or ’70s with 12-foot sidewalls, we’re jacking thesesheds up to 16 feet or 18 feet to simplyhandle the much bigger equipment oftoday.”

Can a job be too big? He simply saidthat he had never turned down a proj-ect because it is too big. His profes-sional tactic on something that mightbe too big is to bid it high and take theturndown. He and wife, Ashlee, havetwins, Prairie and Piper, 4 1/2 yearsold, Jorgen, 3, and Ryker, 1.

If God gives methe opportunityto bid a job,he’s certainlygoing to giveme the wisdomof how to bid ajob.

Family friend Isaiah’s favorite times to visitour farm are during planting and harvest.

At 6 years of age he knows more aboutfarming than our three adult daughtersput together. Whenever possible he’s ridingin the buddy seat with Mike or his dad,asking questions and soaking it all in so hecan put it into practice in his small-scalefarm operation located on the living roomfloor. Mason jars serve as bins, popcornkernels are his corn harvest, and the linesin the carpet clearly mark the crop rows.

In June he spent the morning riding withMike’s dad, Mel, when my doorbell rang. Itwas Isaiah and “Grandpa.” Isaiah asked, “Can I go toGrandpa and Grandma’s house for lunch?” I gavepermission and he rejoiced.

On the way to Grandpa’s pickup Isaiah looked upat him and said, “Well, that sure was a happy endingto that story!”

No matter what your age, happy endings are athing to celebrate. Look no further than the sympa-thy and encouragement card aisles at Hallmark torealize that’s not how every chapter in our storyreads. Some pages in life run parallel to A.A. Milne’sEeyore in, “The Complete Tales of Winnie-the-Pooh”.

“Eeyore, the old gray Donkey, stood by the side ofthe stream, and looked at himself in the water.

“‘Pathetic,’ he said. ‘That’s what it is. Pathetic.’“He turned and walked slowly down the stream for

20 yards, splashed across it, and walked slowly backon the other side. Then he looked at himself in thewater again.

“‘As I thought,’ he said. ‘No better from this side.Pathetic, that’s what it is.’”

I don’t know about you, but there are some situationsthat are Eeyore depressing no matter what side of theproverbial stream or fence you’re standing on. “Choosejoy,” I tell my children and preach to myself. Thatworks most times in my spirit, but it’s no cure-all.

Some hurts cut too deep for catchphrases. If you flip-pantly tell someone to “Be happy!” when they’re in thepit of heartache or disappointment it’s like stamping asmiley face on a failed test or having a doctor throwconfetti as she tells you the cancer has returned. It’sfoolish to apply frivolous, lighthearted balms to deeppain. Proverbs 25:20 puts it this way, Like one whotakes away a garment on a cold day, or like vinegarpoured on soda, is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.

In her New York Times Bestseller book, “One Thou-sand Gifts — A Dare to Live Fully Right Where YouAre,” Ann Voskamp offers a simple and effective remedyto the pages of our story that include death, disasterand disappointment too deep for words. She beautifullyshares a word that we can live and die by — Eucharis-teo: a lifestyle of thanksgiving. In her pit of heartache, afriend challenged her to write a list of 1,000 things shewas thankful for. Not of things she wanted or thingsthat she hoped for, but of things she has in the present— the gifts that are a part of her here and now.

So she began.• Morning shadows across the old floors.

• Jam piled high on the toast.• Cry of a blue jay from high in the

spruce.And she continues. Her ongoing list of

blessings and inspiring thoughts can befound at aholyexperience.com. To herdelight she discovered and shares, “Donot disdain the small. The whole of thelife — even the hard — is made up of theminute parts, and if I miss the infinitesi-mals, I miss the whole. (When we choose)to give thanks in this one small thing themoments will add up.”

To live eucharisteo is a life-transforming choice.The grace in the middle of the gratitude is that joy

follows. It’s not a manufactured happiness or aphony smile. It’s pure, unadulterated joy that natu-rally flows from a thankful heart.

There is a time to weep, and a time to laugh; atime to mourn, and a time to dance (Ecclesiastes3:4). And when is it a time to give thanks? The Bibleprovides that answer as well: In all circumstances(1 Thessalonians 5:18).

May eucharisteo be the song of our hearts at alltimes and in all places.

A new series of grants from theUniversity of Minnesota’sHealthy Foods, Healthy LivesInstitute is aimed at helping peo-ple who live in disadvantaged com-munities eat healthier, safer diets.

The grants, which are for about$50,000 each, include:

• Developing on-farm safe foodhandling practices for immigrantfarmers in the Twin Cities whogrow and sell fresh produce and tra-ditional crops at local farmers mar-kets. The project also includes train-ing for farmers. The project is led byleaders from the Farmers LegalAction Group as well as the Associa-tion for the Advancement of HmongWomen in Minnesota, and U of Magricultural health and safety pro-gram leaders.

• Assessing and creating a planfor a Native American-owned gro-cery store and deli in Lake Andes,South Dakota, on the Yankton

reservation. Researchers will studythe economic viability of a businessfocused on healthy food as well asdetermine how local agencies andcommunity members can worktogether to promote healthy nutri-tion. Brave Heart Society, based onthe reservation, and scientists fromthe U of M’s College of Food, Agri-cultural and Natural Resource Sci-ences and Medical School are theproject leaders.

• Creating an integratedAnishaabe curriculum at the inter-sections of culture, history, eco-nomics and health with native foodpractices, including gardening,farming and forestry. The project isled by leaders at the White Earthreservation in northern Minnesotaand the University of Minnesota,Morris. New Curriculum modelswill be tested at the Morris cam-pus in summer 2012.

• Addressing the obesity epi-demic in communities of color by

creating a sustainable interven-tion model that can be used bythe North Minneapolis KwanzaaChurch community. Forty fami-lies will be involved in a six-month campaign to increasehealthy eating and exercisethrough the existing church com-munity network. The projectleaders include North PointHealth and Wellness Centerphysicians and the U of M’sSchool of Public Health.

A series of activities for fathersto help them be more involved ingrowing, preparing and shoppingfor healthy food with their chil-dren — through visiting farmersmarkets and community gardens,planning menus and using safefood preparation techniques. Theproject involves Southside Com-munity Health Services in Min-neapolis as well as specialistsfrom University of MinnesotaExtension.

As the United States enters another flu season,the Pork Checkoff is advising producers, farm per-sonnel and others who have contact with pigs to getthe seasonal flu vaccination as soon as possible tohelp protect human and pig health.

“It’s always wise for producers and swine farmworkers to reduce the risk of getting sick and bring-ing the flu to the farm or workplace by getting vac-cinated,” said Jennifer Koeman, director of producerand public health for the Pork Checkoff. “It alsodemonstrates the industry’s ‘We Care’ approach toprotecting employees, animals and public health.”

According to the U.S. Department of Health andHuman Services, all people over the age of 6 monthsof age should be immunized for influenza each year.

“People may remain contagious for up to five toseven days after getting sick,” Koeman said. “That’swhy it’s so crucial that employers have a sick-leavepolicy that encourages those experiencing symp-toms of influenza-like illness to stay home.”

At the farm level, good building ventilation and goodhygiene can help reduce transmission of flu viruses.

“To prevent pigs and humans from other species’influenza viruses, producers also should look at bird-

proofing their buildings, protecting feed from birdsand enforcing biosecurity practices, such as the use offarm-specific clothing and footwear,” Koeman said.

According to Lisa Becton, Pork Checkoff ’s directorof swine health information and research, “It’s veryimportant to monitor your herd’s health daily andcontact your herd veterinarian if influenza is sus-pected. Rapid detection of influenza can help produc-ers and their veterinarians implement appropriatestrategies to better manage sick pigs.”

Additional general flu-related information can befound at www.cdc.gov/flu. The Pork Checkoff also hasa factsheet on influenza, “Influenza: Pigs, People andPublic Health.”

By SARAH JOHNSONThe Land Correspondent

Did you know the CIA is highlyinterested in your kitchen?

Not the CIA of Washington, D.C.,and Hollywood. The Culinary Insti-tute of America brings world cuisineto these American shores with titlessuch as “Spain and the World Table,” acoffee-table-worthy cookbook withrecipes an average Joe can actuallyaspire to. Its big, bold photographscontrast nicely with the simplicity ofthe ingredients and instructions. Ifyou love garlic, olive oil and Mediter-

ranean spices, this book’s for you.■

Get the “exotic” flavors of Spain fromyour own garden and spice rack bycombining old favorites in new ways. InMorroccan-inspired Seven VegetableSoup, tender chickpeas, squash, rutaba-gas, Swiss chard and zucchini swimwith apple, cumin and cinnamon. It’ssavory but a little sweet; using veg-etable stock makes it vegetarian. Ourfamily used some end-of-season pro-duce to make a double batch and threwin a couple of extra veggies. Four out offour yums from the Johnson clan!

Seven Vegetable SoupServes 8

2/3 cup chickpeas, soaked overnightand drained

5 cups chopped onions6 cups beef broth or vegetable stock8 cups large-diced, peeled butternut

squash1 turnip or rutabaga, cut into

wedges about 1/4 inch by 1 inch1 teaspoon ground cumin1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon2 1/2 teaspoons salt, or more as needed3 medium zucchini, diced small2 cups large-diced apples, quinces or

pears1 bunch Swiss chard, greens only,

cut into 1/2-inch strips (6 cups)1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper2 tablespoons sugarCombine the chickpeas, onions and

beef broth or vegetable stock in a largestockpot and bring to a boil overmedium-high heat. Reduce the heat tolow and simmer until the chickpeas arejust tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes.

Stir in the butternut squash and

turnip or rutabaga with the cumin, cin-namon and 2 teaspoons of the salt, andsimmer until almost tender, about 10minutes. Stir in the zucchini and apples,quinces or pears, and simmer for 5 moreminutes, or until almost tender. Stir inthe chard and simmer for another 5minutes, or until the chard is tender.

Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt, thepepper and sugar, more or less totaste, and serve.

■

In Spain, the joke goes, garlic is not aseasoning, it’s a vegetable. Garlic Potatoesand Shrimp in Garlic prove that youreally can’t put too much garlic in any-thing. Note the author’s instruction tocook the garlic “just until it starts tobrown” in both recipes; this is a good tipfor any home chef.And remember, if every-one eats garlic, no one has garlic breath.Garlic PotatoesServes 8

6 medium thin-skinned potatoes,preferably Kennebec, scrubbed andcut into 1-inch cubes

4 teaspoons salt, divided use3 tablespoons sunflower or canola oil1/2 cup finely sliced garlic6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black

pepper8 cups canola oil, or enough to fill

the pan 3 inchesPlace the potatoes, 6 quarts of cold

Heat the sunflower or canola oil overmedium heat in medium sauté panand add the garlic. Cook the garlic,stirring, until just begins to brown, 2 to3 minutes. Remove from the heat andimmediately add the olive oil, red pep-per, parsley, black pepper and 1 1/2teaspoons of the salt. Stir together andkeep in warm oven or on very low heat,taking care not to cook the garlic anyfurther.

Heat 3 inches of oil over medium-high heat in a deep, medium-sizedskillet to 350 degrees. Fry the potatoesuntil golden brown and crisp, 13 to 15minutes. Remove from the heat, drainon a rack, then place in a mixing bowl.Stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoonsalt. Finally, add the garlic sauce andgently toss together. Serve immedi-ately.

Mushroom lovers will flip over thesehearty bites stuffed with ham, chorizosausage, fresh herbs, breadcrumbs andcheese. Chorizo is available in mostgrocery stores these days; it’s spicy andaromatic and really adds the “bang” tothis recipe. Mushrooms (fungi) are in a

rather mysterious biological categoryby themselves; while they’re certainlynot animals, they’re closer to us mam-mals on the evolutionary scale thanthey are to plants. Think about thatwhile you’re munching.Chorizo Stuffed MushroomsServes 8

24 large white button or creminimushrooms, wiped clean with a damptowel or brush

6 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extravirgin olive oil, divided use

6 tablespoons butter, plus extramelted butter for basting as needed

3/4 cup finely chopped onions2 tablespoons minced garlic1/2 cup minced Serrano ham1/2 cup dry-cured chopped chorizo

sausage1/4 cup chopped parsley, thyme,

marjoram, or a combination of these1/2 cup toasted breadcrumbs1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black

pepper, or as needed2 tablespoons grated Manchego or

Parmesan cheese (optional)Remove the stems from the mush-

rooms and chop them finely. Reservethe caps and 1 to 1 1/3 cups of thechopped stems separately. Heat 6tablespoons of the olive oil in a largesauté pan over medium-high heat and

brown the mushroom caps, about 8minutes, turning halfway through. Setaside.

Melt the butter in a small sauce panover medium heat and cook the onionsuntil soft, about 5 minutes. Add thegarlic and the mushroom stems andcook until the stems have wilted, about3 minutes. Add the ham and thechorizo and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, oruntil lightly browned. Stir in the herbsand breadcrumbs. Season to taste with1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Rememberthat the ham will give off more salt asit heats.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.Grease a 13x9x2-inch baking dishwith about 1 teaspoon of oil or butter.Spoon a scant tablespoon of the mix-ture into each of the mushroom caps.Place in the baking dish and bake inthe preheated oven for 15 minutes, oruntil golden brown, basting with a lit-tle melted butter, if desired. Sprinkleeach cap with 1/4 teaspoon of gratedcheese, if using. Serve hot or warm.

Grain AnglesTremendous

harvest conditionsThe unseasonably warm, dry fall has given us

tremendous harvest conditions. The speed of harvesthas been a real blessing, given the late planting ofthis crop. Earlier in the growing season, there wasconcern of high drying cost. Fortunately this has notbeen a problem and has saved a great deal of time inthe harvesting process.

The early frost has not provento have damaged the crops asmany feared. There are somepockets that were especially latein planting that are reportingsome “green” beans. Yet, to datethis has not been widespread. Forthose challenged with these con-ditions, one will want to be cog-nizant of the grain grading anddiscount schedules at the point ofsale. One must be careful not toco-mingle “green” beans withbeans unaffected by the earlyfrost. This could cause significant financial conse-quences, due to discounts.

As we fill on-farm storage, we must remember thatthis is another business enterprise that must bemanaged in a professional manner. There are oppor-tunities to fatten margins with proper managing andmerchandising. With these opportunities, there arealso risks involved with mismanagement. There isnothing like letting a bin of grain go out of condition,to provide a steep “tuition” bill from the marketplace.Attention to details, such as “pulling the centers” outof the bins to remove the “fines,” to allow for properair circulation throughout the bin can pay big divi-dends.

Fall tillage could be a challenge with the dry condi-

Grain Outlook Limit up follows

limit downThe following market analysis is for the week end-

ing Oct. 14.CORN — The market experienced its first 40-cent

limit up move this week since the new trading limitwas enacted. This comes on the heels of the first 40-cent limit down move experienced last week. Theday before the October cropreport, funds returned to themarket as heavy buyers andamid unconfirmed rumors atthe time that China had boughtcorn. As report day dawned,expanded limits of 60 centswent untested.

The October U.S. Departmentof Agriculture crop report wasmildly bearish to corn with a fewnew questions popping up. Thenuts and bolts of the reportincluded the corn yield leftunchanged from the Septemberreport at 148.1 bushels per acre when traders wereexpecting a 148.9 bu./acre figure. Corn production at12.433 billion bushels was 60 million less thanexpectations and 64 million less than the lastreport.

Planted acres were decreased as expected by400,000 acres and harvested acres correspondinglyfell 500,000 acres. Ending stocks for 2011-12 wereforecast at 866 million bushels, 194 million higherthan last month’s 672 million estimate and 70 mil-lion greater than the pre-report estimate. The worldcorn carryout went from 117.4 mmt in September to123.2 mmt on this report.

What was brought into question was the decreasein exports of 50 million bushels. Remember last

Livestock AnglesRetailers resisthigher prices

The livestock markets have continued to showstrength as we moved into October. Most of thestrength has been developed in the futures marketwhich has led packers to pay higher for live inven-tory.

This has been most true in the cattle market whichhas seen speculative buyingpushing futures way out aheadof the current cash prices. Thisactivity has been led by the com-modity hedge and index fundsmoving large amounts of moneyinto this market as a hedgeagainst inflation. The true fun-damentals would indicate notquite as bullish a scenario aswhat is being presented by theinflux of these funds.

For example this has forced thepackers to push for higher beefcutouts to try to keep their mar-gins at a positive basis. Because of this the retailersare resisting the higher prices and the volume in theboxed beef trade is slowing once again as we movetoward the $185 per hundredweight level basischoice. With competitive meats at much lower cost tothe retailer and consumer, the emphasis is turningaway from beef to the other meats.

With the continuing economic struggles worldwide,much higher food costs would not appear to be able tobe sustained in the long run. Therefore, cattle pricesmay be restricted in how far they can advance in thefuture from current levels. Producers should takeadvantage of the current strength in the market andat least protect some inventory.

The hog market has been helped to some degree, as

TEALE, from pg. 24Ahave the cattle, by the influx of speculative moneyflowing into the futures. There has also been somenew export business around and more rumors ofmore exports in the future. The cash side of the mar-ket has been more of a leader than the futures aspackers have been fairly steady buyers of inventory.Like the cattle, as pork cutouts continue to rise, theresistance to higher prices by the retail andexporters will climb also.

The value of pork products is far better than thevalue of beef at current prices since they are virtuallyhalf of that of the beef cutouts. Again the economicconditions are going to play a significant role in thefutures prices of hogs down the road. The continuingstagnant and deteriorating conditions of worldeconomies, and the lack of any progress to eliminatethese problems, could hamper the outlook for porkprices as well. It would be prudent for producers toprotect at least part of their inventory at this timeand use further strength to up their protection.

Teale: Pork value better than beef

NEHER, from pg. 24Ations this year. If conditions are such that more dam-age will be made to soil profiles or machinery than itis worth, one may want to wait for a rain. Soil typesand weather conditions will play a big part in thesefactors. Sometimes we can do more damage to soilconditions by misapplied tillage, putting one in a dis-advantaged position in the spring with poorseedbeds. This is a judgment call that must be made.Consider the return on the investment.

Many grain producers who have held on to grainun-priced going into harvest — because this has paidoff the last couple of years — are feeling frustratedwith the market action of late. Those who did notwant to sell, due to fear that they would see pricemove higher and leave “money on the table” are nowlooking at $2 in corn and $3 in soybeans left on thetable. The temptation for “panic selling” is com-pelling. This is not the time to panic. It may takesome time, but this market is still strong.

While corn could trade lower into the “gut-slot” ofharvest, the long-term supply and demand situationshould lead to another rally later in the 2011-12 mar-keting year. In its September supply and demandreport, the U.S. Department of Agriculture peggeddomestic ending stocks-to-use at 5.3 percent, the sec-ond-tightest on record and global ending stocks-to-use at 13.6 percent, the tightest since the 11.7 per-cent estimated at the end of the 1973-74 marketingyear.

We must remember that farming and grain mar-keting is not easy. If it was, everyone would be doingit. Let us remember to be thankful for the blessingsof a harvest and role that we play in feeding a hungryworld.

Neher: This is notthe time to panic

NYSTROM, from pg. 24Aweek we discussed that total export commitmentswere already at 41 percent of total export projec-tions. Including this week’s sales and the newexport forecast, total corn export commitments areat 45 percent of total projected exports. And the feedusage line is still in question with feed usage down100 million bushels when animal numbers havegrown.

On report day, it was also reported that China hadbought 1.5 mmt of optional origin (U.S. or Argen-tine) corn. The next day the USDA confirmed thatChina had purchased 900 tmt of U.S. corn (the sev-enth-largest 24-hour announcement sale ever) and292 tmt of U.S. corn had been sold to unknown(assumed to be China).

Basis levels have leveled off, and in some casesimproved, as end users plug supply holes. Farmerselling has been minimal after the nearly $2.00 sell-off from the highs. Early yield reports have beenmore of the “not quite as good as expected” type.Space is plentiful in the country and corn is gettingput away. It looks like we’ll be going into anothergrowing season with the same attitude as last year,we can’t afford any problems.

Sino Grain out of China pegged their corn crop at184.5 mmt as compared to USDA’s 182 mmt projec-tion. China will remain the wild card on what theywill actually need to import. The USDA has China’simports from the United States at 2 mmt. If thenewest 1.5 mmt comes from the United States, we

will need to see that forecast climb. Weekly cornexports were huge at 49.6 million bushels and nextweek will also be large.

Weekly ethanol production was down 23,000barrels from the previous week at 860,000barrels. This was also down 2 percentfrom last year; the first time sincerecords have been kept thatweekly production has beenlower than the previous year.

OUTLOOK: The $5.72 1⁄4low in December corn on Oct.3 may be viewed as the har-vest low as we enter the sec-ond half of corn harvest. Enduser and fund buying havereturned to the market, also.Unless yields are perceived asimproving significantly as wemove through harvest, a Decem-ber corn range of $6.00 to $7.00plus may be expected. Decembercorn this week closed up 40 cents at$6.40. The December 2012 contract was33 1⁄2 cents higher at $6.01 1⁄2 per bushel.

SOYBEANS — Soybeans followed the same pat-tern as corn this week, with a strong pre-report rallyon fund buying and talk of Chinese buying. Themonthly soybean report on its own was friendly asending stocks declined to 160 million bushels. This isdown 5 million from last month and versus tradeestimates for an increase to 181 million bushels.

Bean yield fell 0.3 bu./acre to 41.5. The trade wasexpecting an increase to 42.0 bu./acre. Production of3.06 billion bushels was down 25 million from Sep-

tember and 34 million less than estimates.Exports were lowered 40 million

bushels and residual increased 9 mil-lion bushels. World soybean carry-

out was essentially unchanged at63 mmt. Adding to the positivetone was the news that Chinahad bought 100 tmt of beanoil from Brazil and 700-800tmt of U.S. soybeans.Reportedly, China is lookingto buy up to 2 mmt of beansand 700 tmt of bean oil toreplenish governmentreserves. China’s thinktank

lowered their soybean pro-duction forecast to 13.5 mmt,

down 10 percent from last yearand .5 mmt less than the USDA

estimate.Weekly soybean exports were mun-

dane at 24.7 million bushels. This bringscommitments to 47 percent of the total export esti-mate. The NOPA crush this month was bearish tosoybeans with only 110 million bushels crushedwhen 118 million had been anticipated. The oilstocks number however, came in bullish at 1.95 bil-lion pounds versus estimates for 2.139 billionpounds.

As U.S. soybean harvest begins to wind down,grower selling has diminished. This has firmed basislevels. A new sale of 110 tmt of U.S. soybeans tounknown confirmed the positive tone. Turning ourweather attention to South America, planting condi-tions look decent, but if La Nina pops up Argentinacould be in for dry weather.

Informa Economics updated their 2012 acreageforecast this week. They are pegging soybean acresat 77 million acres as compared to this year’s 75 mil-lion planted acres and 77.4 million acres in 2010-11.For corn, they are at 93.1 million acres versus thisyear’s 91.9 million and 88.2 million in 2010-11.

OUTLOOK: Soybeans have been put away andSouth American offers are diminishing, leaving themarket to bid up to adequately fill the pipeline. Inaddition to firmer basis levels to encourage move-ment, the board will likely have to provide an incen-tive as well. November soybeans settled the week at$12.70 per bushel, up an eye-popping $1.11 3⁄4 forthe week. Another run to $13.00 is likely in the shortrun, and possibly higher if growers hold fast. Firstsupport is viewed at $12.35 per bushel.

Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the weekended Oct. 14: Minneapolis December wheat was theonly loser, down 27 cents, while the Kansas Citywheat was up 23 cents, and Chicago gained 15 1⁄4cents. November crude oil jumped $3.82 higher to$86.80, heating oil up 19.7 cents, gasoline up 17.7cents, and natural gas up 22.2 cents. As of mid-after-noon Oct. 14, the Dow was up 467 points for the week,the U.S. dollar index was 2.1 points lower, and goldrose $47.30 to $1,681.80 per ounce.

Every year is different with federalcrop insurance, and with the multipleoptions available to producers, thereare many variable results from cropinsurance coverage at harvest time.

This year will be no different, withsome producers choosing Yield Protec-tion policies (yield only) versus Rev-enue Protection policies (yield andprice). Producers also have differences

in the level of coverage, andsome producers chose“optional units,” while otherproducers chose “enterpriseunits” for 2011.

In the Midwest, most cornand soybean producers inrecent years have tended tosecure some level of revenuecrop insurance coverage,rather than standard yield-only policies. Producers likethe flexibility of the RP poli-cies that provide insur-ance coverage forreduced yields, as wellas in instances wherethe harvest price drops below initialbase price.

In 2011, corn and soybean yieldlosses with YP policies and RP policieswill function differently, due to therecent drop in Chicago Board of Tradegrain prices.

The established base prices for 2011YP and RP crop insurance policies was$6.01 per bushel for corn and$13.49/bu. for soybeans. This will bethe payment rate for 2011 YP policiesfor corn and soybeans, and will serve asthe final price to calculate revenueguarantees to calculate potential RPcrop insurance indemnity payments atcurrent price levels.

The final harvest price for RP insur-ance policies is based on the averageCBOT December corn futures andCBOT November soybean futures dur-ing October. If the 2011 CBOT price inOctober is below $6.01/bu. for corn and$13.49/bu. for soybeans, the initial baseprice is used to calculate the RP guar-

antees; otherwise, the Octo-ber price is used.

The CBOT average pricefor October will be used tocalculate the value of theactual harvested bushels in2011 for RP policies. As ofOct. 10, the average CBOTfutures prices in Octoberwere $5.99/bu. for corn and$11.65/bu. for soybeans.

Corn and soybean produc-ers have the option of

selecting crop insurancepolicies ranging from 60percent to 85 percent

coverage levels. While 85 percent cover-age levels are fairly common with YPpolicies, coverage levels of 75 percentand 80 percent are more common withRP insurance policies, due to moreaffordable premium costs.

The level of insurance coverage canresult in some producers receiving cropinsurance indemnity payments, whileother producers receive no indemnitypayments, even though both producershad the same guarantee and the samefinal yield.

For example, at a proven corn yield of180 bushels per acre, a producer with85 percent coverage would have a 153bu./acre guarantee, while a producerwith 75 percent coverage would have ayield guarantee of 135 bu./acre.Enterprise units or optional units

FARM PROGRAMS

By Kent Thiesse

See PROGRAMS, pg. 29A

PROGRAMS, from pg. 28Aerage under “enterprise units,” whichcombines all acres of a crop in a givencounty into one crop insurance unit.

As a result, crop insurance premiumlevels for policies with enterprise unitswere much more favor-able than for policiesutilizing “optionalunits.” Prior to 2009,most producers used optional units,which allow producers to insure cornand soybeans separately in each town-ship section. Many more producers arenow taking advantage of the lower pre-mium levels with enterprise units,allowing them to upgrade to 80 percentor 85 percent RP coverage.

Producers who have 2011 crop losseson individual farms, and have cropinsurance coverage with optional units,may be able to collect crop insuranceindemnity payments on their 2011 cornor soybean crop on some farm units,while not on others.

Meanwhile, producers with cropinsurance policies with enterpriseunits in 2011, may be less likely toqualify for 2011 crop insurance indem-nity payments, unless they had croplosses on a significant portion of cropacres in a county.

Due to the recent drop in CBOT cropprices, along with the low corn and soy-bean yields in some areas due to poor2011 weather conditions, there arelikely to be more producers with enter-prise units that qualify for crop insur-ance indemnity payments in 2011, ascompared to 2010.

Many producers saw some significantsavings in crop insurance premiumcosts in the past couple of years byswitching to enterprise units, which

work quite well when a producer incursgeneral yield reductions due to droughtor poor growing conditions, or when theharvest price drops lower than the ini-tial base price.

However, in situations when mostcrop losses were fromsevere storms andheavy rains that dam-

aged some farms andnot others, or damaged parts of farms,optional units are far superior to enter-prise units, as far as potential for cropinsurance indemnity payments. Pro-ducers with enterprise units who pur-chased supplemental hail insurancecoverage as part of their overall riskmanagement plan in 2011 may havequalified for some indemnity paymentson farms with crop losses from hailstorms during the growing season. Pro-ducers should contact their crop insur-ance agent to better understand insur-ance coverage with enterprise units, ascompared to optional units, for the2012 crop year.Calculating potential 2011 cropinsurance payments

Some farmers in Minnesota and sur-rounding states will be facing reducedyields on some farm units in 2011, dueto heavy rains and severe storms.

Many growers purchased upgradedlevels of YP or RP crop insurance forthe 2011 growing season. The recentdrop in CBOT prices should lead tomore favorable RP harvest prices,which could result in more producersqualifying for 2011 crop insuranceindemnity payments.

Following is an analysis of potential2011 crop loss scenarios that couldresult in likely crop insurance indem-

PROGRAMS, from pg. 29Anity payments with RP policies.

RP insurance policiesAn initial “price guarantee” is established for each

crop prior to the crop insurance enrollment deadlineon March 15 each year. The finalprice guarantee is determined atharvest time in the fall. The priceguarantees are based off of CBOTgrain futures prices.

Following is how RP price guarantees are calcu-lated.

CornBase price is the average settlement price for

December CBOT corn futures in February. Harvestprice for RP policies is the average settlement pricefor December CBOT corn futures in October duringthe year of harvest.

SoybeansBase price is the average settlement price for

November soybean futures in February. Harvestprice for RP policies is the average settlement pricefor November CBOT soybean futures in Octoberduring the year of harvest.

2011 RP base prices were:

Corn: $6.01/bu.Soybeans: $13.49/bu.2011 RP harvest price estimates as of Oct. 10 were:Corn RP Harvest Price (Est.): $5.99/bu.(The corn RP harvest price will be finalized after

Oct. 31.)Soybean RP harvest price (Est.): $11.65/bu.(The soybean RP harvest price will be finalized

after Oct. 31.)The higher of the base price or the harvest price is

used to calculate revenue guarantee per acre used todetermine crop indemnity payments with RP poli-cies, which will likely be the base price in 2011 forsoybeans, and potentially for corn.

The harvest price is always used to determine thevalue of the harvested crop.

RP crop loss example tablePlease refer to the adjoining table for crop loss

examples for corn and soybeans with an 80 percentcoverage RP crop insurance policy, with eitheroptional units or enterprise units. The premium esti-mates are for enterprise units. The table also con-tains space for producers to put in their own Actual

Production Historyyields, insurance cover-age levels, premiumcosts, projected yield andharvest prices, in order tomake estimates forpotential 2011 crop insur-ance indemnity pay-

ments.Bottom line on calculat-

ing potential crop insurance paymentsProducers who have crop losses in 2011, with

potential crop insurance indemnity payments, shouldproperly document yield losses for either optionalunits or enterprise units. Producers with RP policiesmay qualify for crop insurance indemnity paymentsat higher final 2011 yield levels with the lowerCBOT harvest prices, especially with soybeans.

A reputable crop insurance agent is the best sourceof information to make estimates for potential 2011crop insurance indemnity payments, and to find outabout documentation requirements for crop insur-ance losses.

It is important for producers who are facing croplosses in 2011 to understand their crop insurancecoverage, and the calculations used to determinecrop insurance indemnity payments. The Universityof Illinois Farm Management website has some goodCrop Insurance information, and an online “What-If”Crop Insurance Payment Calculator. The website islocated at www.farmdoc.uiuc.edu.

Mark Norgren, of Reality Roasters in Little Falls, is put-ting together a 300-pound batch of dark roasted coffee

for a church group. He measures out five-pound lots of palegreen coffee beans from a 60-pound burlap bag.

When his roastersignals that the tem-perature of the rotat-ing drum is 450degrees Fahrenheit,the beans drop with arattle from a hopperinto the drum. Theheavy steel drum inNorgren’s German-made roaster isheated by gas frombelow. Super hot airswirls about thedrum. The beansnever rest. They flyback and forth and upand down.

Norgren can watch the inferno through the roaster’s smallglass window. He doesn’t. The digital eye of the computer con-nected to the roaster does a better job of monitoring time, tem-perature and quality than the naked eye. Computers havehelped small artisan coffee roasters such as Norgren. But theymerely free the craftsman to focus more on coffee’s subtleties.

“Coffee is a commodity. Its value on the market is secondonly to oil,” Norgren says. “The big roasters buy entire ship-ping containers. But my business is small and I can buy onebag at a time. I look for a certain flavor profile within eachorigin and can enjoy the beauty of that.”

When the roaster’s bell rings Norgren knows that a batchis ready. He looks like a magician as the hot beans pour outof the roaster and surround him in a billow of smoke. In atray at the roaster’s mouth beans are stirred and blown withair for quick cooling. Still, they continue to crackle and poplike Rice Crispies.

“I’m trying to bring out the mature sugars and caramels atthis point,” he says as he inspects the beans.

Making an excellent cup of coffee involves top-qualitygreen beans, skillful roasting, a good grinder and good brew-ing equipment, Norgren says.

Reality Roasters provides all of that in their various top-qual-ity Mexican, Nicaraguan, Hawaiian, Guatemalan and other cof-fees. They even offer coffee drinkers brewing equipment.

To prove his point Norgren opens a one-pound bag ofColombian coffee that is only available to his Cup of Excel-lence members. He brews it and presents a cup. I previouslyhad two cups of coffee that were the best in my life. Nowthere are three.

This column was writtenfor the marketing week end-ing Oct. 14.

Don’t look for $20 milkprices in 2012, according toMatt Mattke of Wisconsin-based Stewart Peterson.Speaking in Tuesday’sDairyLine, Mattke pointedto the global economy which,he said, has a lot of uncer-tainty and risk and could beheaded into a secondaryrecession which will limit the upside.

“We saw a couple of months ago what$2-plus cheese did to demand, Mattkesaid. “Exports dropped sharply in Juneand July and domestic demand droppedhard as well.” He said $18 milk “has ashot,” but $17-$17.50 is more likely.

On a brighter note, corn prices havesoftened the last four weeks and isabout $2 off the high, Mattke reported.Milk prices have fallen as well so it’s“bittersweet.”

He called on producers to “be defensivein their planning” and “use any rally thatmight occur between now and the end ofthe year to get sales in place, pick thetool of your choice, be it forward contract-ing or put options, use that rally to do itand get a base of protection in placebecause 2012 has a lot of unknowns.”

■

Cash cheese prices the week of Oct.10 reversed the previous week’s rallyand closed Friday at $1.69 per pound onthe blocks, down 7.5 cents on the week,and a nickel below a year ago. The bar-rels also closed at $1.69, down 9.5 centson the week, and 4.25 below a year ago.Eleven cars of block traded hands onthe week and 14 of barrel. The NationalAgricultural Statistics Service-surveyedU.S. average block price lost 1.2 cents,slipping to $1.7475. Barrels averaged$1.7080, down 2 cents.

Jerry Dryer’s Oct. 7 Dairy and FoodMarket Analyst reported that “conver-

sations with (cheese) distrib-utors suggest more promo-tional activity is beingplanned now than was thecase just a few weeks ago. Atthe beginning of the week,cheese prices were as muchas 50 cents below the pricelevels that prevailedthrough the summer.”

Butter-wise, Dryer saysthere’s “very good order flowand more promotional activ-

ity in the works. However, there’s alsois plenty of cream. High-fat holidayproducts aren’t yet competing for thecream supply and ice cream is out ofthe picture while milk bottlers andyogurt makers continue to dump creaminto the supply chain.”

Spot butter closed Oct. 14 at $1.8350,up 6.5 cents on the week, but 35 centsbelow a year ago. Only one car was soldall week. NASS butter averaged$1.7579, down 5.1 cents. NASS nonfatdry milk averaged $1.5415, up 2.5cents, and dry whey averaged 60.29cents, down 0.3 cent.

U.S. dairy exports in the first sevenmonths of 2011 were steady and consis-tent, according to the U.S. Dairy ExportCouncil’s Margaret Speich in an interview Ihad with her at World Dairy Expo.Demand has been strong, she said, much ofit coming from emerging markets and U.S.cheese exports have been a bright spot.Exports in the first seven months claimed 5percent of U.S. cheese production, up froman historical average of 1-2 percent.

Much of the cheese is going to SouthKorea where USDEC has done a lot ofmarketing the past 15 years. Speich said“It’s paying off for U.S. dairy farmers,”adding that there’ll be even more potentialfrom free trade agreements with SouthKorea, Panama and Columbia whichpassed the House and Senate this week.

MIELKE MARKETWEEKLY

By Lee Mielke

MIELKE, from pg. 1BThe U.S. dairy industry needs the

world market but Speich warned that“It’s imperative we do what’s needed tocontinue to be a consistent supplier, notjust to the international markets butalso to make sure we’re producing theright kinds of things for the domesticmarket. It’s part of the environment weoperate in and U.S. dairy exportersespecially in the last two to three yearshave shown more interest in exports,

more commitment, and are very activein the export market.”

The National Milk Producers Federa-tion’s Chris Galen says the South Koreanfree trade agreement would be worthabout $380 million per year to the U.S.dairy industry and the other two wouldmean another $50 million in annualsales and generate additional jobs.

MIELKE, from pg. 2Bprices to be competitive but that’s no longer the case asexports have contributed much to achieve “strong posi-tive prices for dairy farmers,” Speich said. “Keep inmind,” she said, “U.S. milk production has increased 1.6percent this year and 60 percent of that additional out-put was exported so we have to make sure that our com-mitment to export markets stays and really do what’sneeded to make our exports healthy and consistent.”

The free trade agreements drew fire from theNational Family Farm Coalition. Board presidentBen Burkett stated, “The U.S. alone has lost 300,000family farmers since NAFTA was implemented, andwe don’t expect the lowered tariffs for beef andoranges to offset those numbers in the next 15 years.”

Wisconsin farmer John Kinsman, who met withPresident Barack Obama and U.S. Department ofAgriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack at the White HouseRural Forum in Podesta, Iowa, said; “We outlined ourconcerns about the trade agreements to the Presidentand Secretary Vilsack, but they chose to ignore them.This Administration has, unfortunately, caved to thenotion that any trade is good trade. They abandonedtheir campaign pledge to revisit our nation’s tradepolicies, despite the continued loss of family-scale pro-ducers and the rural communities behind them.”

■

Speaking of exports; the Cooperatives WorkingTogether program accepted 10 requests for exportassistance from Dairy Farmers of America and UnitedDairymen of Arizona to sell a total of 2.67 millionpounds of Cheddar cheese to customers in Asia, NorthAfrica and the Middle East. The product will be deliv-ered through December and raises CWT’s 2011 cheeseexport total to 74.9 million pounds to 23 countries, theequivalent of 749 billion pounds of milk.

In milk pricing news; California’s November ClassI milk price is $20.26 per hundredweight for thenorth and $20.54 for the south, down $1.24 and$1.23 respectively from October, but $1.55 and $1.56above November 2010, and equates to about $1.74and $1.77 per gallon respectively. The drop pulledthe 2011 average to $20.68 and $20.95, but both are$3.83 above a year ago. The Federal order Class Ibase price is announced by USDA on Oct. 21.

The Ag Department raised its 2011 milk productionforecast again in its latest World Agricultural Supplyand Demand Estimates report. USDA blamed herdexpansion “at a more rapid rate and milk per cowduring summer increased more rapidly thanexpected.” Department bean counters project 2011output at 195.9 billion pounds, up 200 million fromlast month’s estimate, and compares to 192.8 billionin 2010. The 2012 estimate was lowered as “forecastmilk prices and weakening milk-feed ratios increasethe pace of later year declines in cow numbers.” Lookfor 2012 output to hit 198.4 billion pounds, down 100million pounds from September’s estimate.

“International prices have been weaker which hasput some pressure on butter and cheese prices,”USDA wrote. Butter and cheese price forecasts werereduced for 2012. NDM prices have also been under

See MIELKE, pg. 4B

MIELKE, from pg. 3Bpressure from weakening international prices andalthough the forecast for 2011 is unchanged fromlast month, the price forecast for 2012 was reduced.Whey prices were raised for both 2011 and 2012 asdemand is strong, according to USDA.

The 2011 Class III milk price forecast was lowered,but for 2012 the higher whey price more than offsetsa decline in the cheese price, and the Class III priceforecast was raised. The 2011 Class III average isnow expected to range $18.15-$18.25 per hundred-weight, down from the $18.25-$18.45 expected lastmonth, and compares to $14.41 in 2010. The 2012average is now projected at $16.30-$17.20, up fromthe $16.10-$17.10 projected a month ago.

The Class IV price was lowered for both years due tolower forecast butter and NDM prices. The 2011 aver-age is now put at $19.05-$19.25, with the 2012 aver-age projected at $16.30-$17.30 per hundredweight.

The report also showed 2011 corn and soybean pro-duction estimates were reduced about 1 percent fromthe September projection but corn and soybean priceprojections were also lowered. The 2011-12 U.S. sea-son-average farm price for corn was put at $6.20-$7.20per bushel, down 30 cents on both ends of the rangecompared to a month ago. The 2011-12 U.S. season-average soybean price remains in a wide range,$12.15-$14.15 per bushel, down 50 cents on both ends.Soybean meal prices were forecast at $335-$365 perton for 2011-12, down $25 on both ends of the range.Cottonseed production for 2011 was forecast wellbelow 2010, as was alfalfa and other dry hay.

Milk production levels across the United States arefollowing expected amounts, according to USDA’sweekly update. Northeast supplies are tight forneeds in many cases as Class I and II demand is lim-iting manufacturing supplies. Good Class I demandin the Southeast is reported with increased loadsbeing shipped into the region. Midwest milk is ade-quate for most needs with steady production. Milkcomponents are slowly increasing. Western produc-tion is slowing seasonally, with some upticks in theSouthwest as temperatures moderate.

■

California’s Milk Producers Council warned in itsOct. 7 newsletter that milk production in Australiaand New Zealand is booming and “hard to notbelieve the short-term milk supply could swampdemand down there, raising the question about whateffect it may have up here.”

Cheese sales are holding up well, here, according tothe MPC, “but U.S. economic data continues to indicatethe recovery from the greatest economic recession thiscountry has suffered may not get much better soon,and there has been some talk about the economies ofFrance and Germany weakening. Since the U.S. milkproducers are beyond the ‘tipping point’ all we can dois hang on right now and wait to see what happens.”

Lime Spreading“Have you checked your soil PH lately”

Advantages we offer:• We unload directly from the trucks to a floater

(Terra Gator) without stockpiling material.This gives us a more uniform spread with nofoliage to plug up the spreader.

• With direct loading there is no stockpile, nowasted lime or mess in your field.

• We use a floater (Terra Gator) to spread sowe have less compaction.

• We are equipped to spread variable rate usingGPS mapping.

• We service Minnesota and northern Iowa.Why apply Aglime:• A soil ph level of 5.5 nitrogen efficiency is only

77 percent.• A soil ph level of 6.0 nitrogen efficiency still is

only 89 percent.• At a soil ph level of 7.0 fertilizer efficiency is

100 percent.
