Good weed management practices include rotating herbicide modes of action and layering preemergence and postemergence herbicides with residual activity.

The initial ease and success of Roundup Ready technology may have caused some farmers to become lax with their weed management programs, which was ultimately a factor in the introduction of glyphosate-resistant weeds. The agricultural community certainly made mistakes with the introduction and use of Roundup Ready technology. As new herbicide and seed products, including dicamba and 2,4-D tolerant crops, are introduced, we can take learnings from the Roundup Ready era and develop smarter weed management programs. What went wrong?There’s no doubt that glyphosate and Roundup Ready crops revolutionized modern agriculture... 6 tips to steward new technologyAs farmers look to new technology to fill the gaps where glyphosate has failed, it’s time to consider new management practices to extend the life of these products...

For a while, the work of many environmental groups, agencies and celebrities had been able to slow the unchecked destruction of forest land... The forest Code was first adopted in 1965 as a way to allow farmers to purchase and farm land in the Amazon with the caveat that they may only farm a small percentage of the land. However, with the limited governmental ability to oversee the development of an enormous dense forest just slightly smaller than the continent of Australia, it wasn’t a surprise to anyone when eager farmers and cattlemen started to illegally clear additional land. When this has happened in the past, huge fines have been levied against the offending parties as well as the requirement to return the cleared lands back to forest, making the risk not worth the potential consequences... According to Brazil’s space agency that tracks deforestation through satellite imaging, over 1,000 square miles (more than twice the size of Los Angeles) was cleared in the period of August 2012 to July 2013...

That’s up just under a million from their March estimate and was 750,000 higher than the average pre-report estimate. · Prior to today’s release though the common agreement among many analysts was that a 90 million plus number would easily cause further erosion to price, dodging that bullet may allow some to breathe a little easier as we move ahead. · Year over year changes by state to corn acres appeared to be relatively minor with Ohio and Nebraska increasing their acreage 150,000 while Michigan upped theirs by 50k...

I’m sure there was pressure for activity from shareholders and management to get deals done... It would have been fine to overpay for Google at almost any time in the last decade because the cash flow generated was growing so quickly (again, hindsight)... However, for whatever reason, it seems they lost sight of the fact that volatility is extremely common in farming and they were leveraged to the point where things have to go right in order for them to remain solvent (according to the Seeking Alpha article). It will be interesting to see how all of this plays out but, if nothing else, I hope the accusations against Farmland Partners encourage farmland investors and farmers to step back and re-examine their own personal farmland investment strategies... Don’t become so over-leveraged that cash flow volatility threatens your solvency or ability to service debt...
