high input farmers

[WiltonRanch]

Kinda like Farmers Edge et al. Great if you think there’s an enough advantage to justify the cost. Like snake oil, grain magnets, tractor exhaust fertilizer, input capitol etc they are bottom feeders sucking up the scraps. Last ones you should be giving money to when times are tough. It’s been a decent run the last 15 years compared to the 15 before. Enough time for the hammer looking for a nail types to dream up this stuff. If crop yields don’t recover or and prices drop for a sustained period, these parasites will be gone as the host has died or took some ivomec.

Probably the right thing to do is not really cut back next year on fertility. It’s only 1 dry year. Right?

Book fert early, put lots down, big prices next yr, don’t miss out. Big fall rains and harsh winter coming.

Book it!!!
Book something anyway!!!!

We will keep doing what we do regardless of the big push from retailers . Go with the basics and add if necessary during the growing season once we know what we got coming and best guess on weather from mid June on .
This year was one of those years , was an easy decision by mid to late June .... park the sprayer and watch for bugs .
Each to their own , but some retailers , ag advisers really had guys go full throttle before and at seeding . Those bills are going to hurt now .
Optimal conditions only happen 1 or 2 years out of 10 in our area so we just do our own thing .

Book that Liberty canola as it is The One for next year.
Bet it has a short story at the retailers already.
Can't go wrong!

Got 2 weeks to Mexico booked for the end of November, will wait till harvest is done before booking anything else. So far the 340, 357 and 506 look good considering the year, hoping to break 20 as a average.

Did you put this up to see if you could make Chucks head explode!

One retailer I got a nitrogen price from told me "here's our price, but I wouldn't buy at these prices". ??? HaHa, some kind of reverse psychology marketing strategy?
