2026 #WiscWeeds research with the @ecorobotix ARA Ultra-High Precision Sprayer is officially underway! Excited to continue evaluating this technology in Wisconsin corn–soybean production systems and its potential to reduce foliar herbicide use by spraying only where weeds are present. We had to push hard this week to get our trials sprayed before severe storms moved across southern Wisconsin, but everything is in place and off to a great start. Additional trials are scheduled for next weeks! Based on what we’ve seen so far, we’re excited about the potential fit of this technology for POST weed management in soybean production systems. More results to come; stay tuned! 🌽🌱

“Today, 63 farmers will go out of business.” “Farmers are going broke.” “At the same time as … families can’t feed their kids.” “Yet across agriculture and food sectors, dominant corporations are posting record profits.” Farm Action’s Joe Maxwell delivered an urgent call to break up corporate monopolies in our food system at a roundtable hosted by @SenSchumer. The problem is much, much worse than you think. “When I began farming in 1980, the top four beef packers controlled about 36% of the cattle.” “Today, it’s 85% of the fat cattle.” “There were 56 fertilizer companies.” “Today, there’s three dominant ones.” “They use supply chain disruptions to gouge the consumer and take advantage of the farmer.” “And these farmers will be coming here and asking for another bailout from Congress, fourth time in just a little over a year.” “Companies themselves acknowledged at the time and filings with the SEC that a large share of their pricing is not tied to their cost, but how much a farmer gets paid.” “The more bailout money you give the farmers, the more the input companies are gonna charge.” “That’s how monopoly power works.” “We also need to confront the role of commodity checkoff programs.” “These programs were created to support farmers.” “But today, a large share of mandatory farmer funds flows into marketing and policy influencing the Congress.” “They primarily benefit the processors and dominant firms.” “For more than four decades, both parties have actually allowed the sliding towards monopoly control.”

We are getting ready to plant one of our @WISoyCheckoff @SoybeanScience1 soybean cover crop trials. Here are three lessons we learned from our 2024 trials! I hope you all have a TIP TOP day!

Fair will be here before we know it #4-H

While we anxiously wait for the field season, we’re going full steam in the greenhouse! #WiscWeeds #spray25 We are screening for herbicide resistance and testing adjuvants and herbicide tank mixtures against Wisconsin’s toughest corn & soybean weeds. Stay tuned!

So Trump is starting a 25% tariff on products from Canada. Remember - Canada currently imposes tariffs of up to 270% on products from the US. Funny how the media does not cover that.
