Upcoming Events
Greetings Producers,
Every year brings new challenges and opportunities. Last year was hot and dry, and now this year we are cold and wet. With so much winter kill, Kevin has provided some information on alternative crops and switching maturity for soybeans on late plantings. Also, we have included material on feeding cabbage waste and buying forage for your consideration. After last year, I have put in some information on summer heat stress. It is always better to plan ahead and be prepared. A flyer on tractor safety for kids is included, plus an invitation to Breakfast on the Farm. 2013 June Farm Business News.
Please find time to be safe and communicate with your family and employees.
Best wishes on meeting the challenges of 2013. (Zen Miller)
