The plants a healthier stronger and able to withstand many of the pathogens and insects that are normally found in rice. The reports also show that rice grains tested had little or no chemical residue... We are not just about rice...

Back then, markets evaporated and prices dropped dramatically leaving many farmers without the means to pay the bills and having to foreclose on family family farms... Even if they weren’t actively farming at the time, they were old enough to recognize the turmoil caused by trade embargos and the subsequent years of low commodity prices... The Drop in Commodity PricesPrior to the latest, trade-driven market shifts, economists and journalists alike were already comparing the current farm economy to the 1980s. Commodity prices were already on their fifth year of decline since peaking in 2013. While prices shifted downward, most input and land costs remained level, at best, while equipment costs are trending upward...

GroAloe is 100% organic but that does not mean that it is just for organic farmers... GroAloe has been Tested extensively in Indonesia by the Rice Institute IRRI, and we have done side by side trial with the big guns. The results you say? Well we produced on average 50% more rice than the plots treated with chemicals... We have seen the return of the natural ecosystem of the soil return to normal with a more balanced pH, earth worms, rice eels, and microorganisms that are beneficial to plants and soil. Lab test have shown that we have reduced or almost eliminated chemical residue in the actual rice grain...

I have for the last three years been promoting a product that was developed by Mr. Bill Coats, the father of Aloe Vera products... In Indonesia we are in some cases doubling rice yields, we are the only product to help with VSD and BPR in cocoa trees... Our recent chemical analysis of rice after using GroAloe showed no sign of toxic chemical residue... The natural ecosystem has returned to these rice fields...

Traditional agricultural skills that made civilization possible are still alive and in use today. At the same time, hundreds of farm technician job listings across the US, and the rise of precision agriculture and software, clearly evidence the need for technologically-savvy farm technicians in the 21st century agricultural industry. It’s no surprise that tech-friendly millennials interested in farming are encouraged by these developments, which may make farming less labor intensive than in generations past. Technology may even be the antidote to a number of ills plaguing modern agriculture, which have led to a drastic decrease in the number of farms across the United States... The government regulatory burden has killed far more farmers than land prices...

If someone asked you, “How do plants take up the water and nutrients they need?” you’d probably tell them through the roots. But did you know that for many crops, those roots aren’t working alone?That’s because most plant species associate with mycorrhizal fungi. What is mycorrhizal fungi? University of Alberta biological scientist JC Cahill says that mycorrhizas are actually the interaction between a fungus and a plant. Although there are many different types of mycorrhizae, the only one crop farmers need to be concerned about is arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), as 65% of plant species associate with it... “In Canada, because prices are good for canola right now, a lot of farmers are going back to mono-cropping,” she says...

What an honor to be able to talk to so many enthusiastic like-minded people.

You can find it along with other articles at News | The Accidental Agronomist I spoke about the concept of amending vs... Some amendments include limes, aragonite, greensand, mulch, manures, composts, elemental sulfur, peat, coir, rice hulls, biochar, gypsum, Azomite, and cover crops...

• Not much in the way of significant news throughout the week, as typical for this time of year in the grain markets most traders are already in holiday mode. Soybeans have managed to hold their own after a rough start to the week, while corn and wheat are testing the downside of the most recent trading range. • Corn traders continue to monitor what is taking place in the crude market as selling pressure there has ramped up significantly. The crude complex has lost 31% in the last 7 weeks, hitting its lowest level in a year to close out the week... President Trump applauded the move lower, thanking the Saudi’s and proclaiming prices should move “even lower...

· A week full of rumors, confirmation and headlines gave everyone a lot to talk about, but surprisingly left the markets somewhat directionless. · The week started with Reuters reporting China was looking to purchase 5-8 mmt of soybeans and that sales were just days away. President Trump agreed in an interview Tuesday saying China was in the market buying large amounts. Excitement continued to build into Wednesday as additional news reports indicated $180 million worth of sales had been finalized, with subsequent reports indicating even more buying throughout the day... This is the worst margin in 18 months as weakened feed demand and higher input prices are creating a pinch...

It’s no secret that America’s farmers are aging. In the last 35 years, the average age of American farmers has risen more than eight years to over 58 years-old... This requires placing an easement on the land, reducing its purchase price while receiving a payment of the difference in the process... Below are three different ways in which young farmers can establish sweat equity while an older generation is able to live out their life on their farm:Lease-to-own: depending on how the lease is set up, the tenant can slowly contribute to the purchase price and/or down payment on a future purchase of the land... The harsh reality is that today, the land price to production capacity ratio is completely different than it was in the previous generation...
