Nearly any fool can govern a people, it takes little effort to keep status quo. Leadership takes risk, and accepts there will be failure along the way. You won't be able to blame anyone else for it. You just need to continue on. The mob won't like it, but is the mob right?

#agrisagronomy last minute thoughts on Nitrate Soil testing. Does the lab test for both ammonium N and Nitrate N this is important for farms with Manure. Not all manure will be in nitrate form at time of sampling? Does the lab report them separately or combined?

I am usually a big @JohnDeere supporter but their updates to their displays have done nothing but cause me grief this year. Same planter, same displays, same tractor. 3 years of flawless ISO integration with my planter. This year over 6 hours stopped in 6 days. Sucks

"Canada’s tariff on Russian and Belarusian nitrogen imports, imposed in 2022 following the invasion of Ukraine, has kept fertilizer costs elevated in eastern Canada for five consecutive years. Canada remains the only G7..." share.google/QGlKRXCMPddt6GA…

I’m looking to join a farmer golf tournament this summer. Mediocre at best but I can offer some laughs and good conversation. Let me know if you need a partner. ⛳️

Yo, Canada over here you listening?
Good news for Europe’s farmers: In January, we promised action β€” today we deliver by suspending tariffs on key fertilisers for one year. Helping lower costs for our farmers & strengthening Europe’s food security. More to come as announced in the Fertilisers Action Plan! πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΊπŸŒΎ
