Your planter with more electronics than ever, never saw mud this season, all dust blown off. Do you power wash it before putting it away?

You farm a couple thousand acres (corn/soybeans) in an I state. You hire out all of your spraying and have no livestock. Is this a full time job?

These pics sum up so much of what I learned from the world class agronomy group at BW Fusion. Last fall my father in law went around his fields to plow the grass layer that eventually creeps into the field. That outside row is now in a very carbon rich (WEOC) environment and it’s no surprise how it looks in relation to the others. It will be my absolute mission to get these soils less chemically dependent over the coming years. Looking forward to the journey.

I’ve been out of the corporate game for a month and it’s crazy to me how much “busy work” goes on on the farm with no livestock.

Yes I am farming in shorts. The first boomer I see that gives me shit about it, I will simply ask them to tell me their true cost of production per acre. That will be the end of the chat.

The real fun part about being involved on the farm day to day is being able to prevent people from taking advantage of the older generation. Today it was “buy this special more expensive dicamba to spray waterways and terraces so it won’t volatilize”. Party’s over boys.

Bringing our farm into the future of elite seed treatments and bio controls. A lot of people still talk about biologicals like they’re “coming someday.” They’re already here! Excited to see BW Defend going to work on our soybeans this season. Time to put it to the test where it matters most.@bw_fusion

He’s thinking about paying more attention to soil health and WEOC than removal and build rates. Up the donations the universities.

Some decisions in life are far harder than you ever expect them to be. Today was my last official day with BW Fusion. This wasn’t a decision I expected to make this soon, but being needed on the farm is something I can’t ignore and something I can’t not do. Walking away from a company and team I love is incredibly difficult. My time at BW Fusion has been the most rewarding chapter of my career. I’m grateful for the people, the friendships, the opportunities, and the chance to be part of something that is truly pushing agriculture forward. I believe deeply in this company and the people behind it. The future is incredibly bright. As hard as this transition is, I’m equally excited for what’s ahead. Agriculture has given me everything, and I look forward to continuing to make an impact in this industry in new ways moving forward. Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey.

I’m convinced the engineer at Case that designed this also holds a major share in a pharmaceutical company that sells arthritis medicine.

You can either bitch about the cost of diesel and lack of moisture or you can double work your end rows on bean stubble. You don’t get to do both.

Watching older folks use anything touch screen is painful 98% of the time. Just lightly touch it… (tries to push finger through the screen) 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

What’s everyone’s experience with a CF Moto ATV’s? I read good things and they look like a solid value buy.

The market doesn’t care how you like to do it. It responds to execution, efficiency, and results.

💥Spoiler alert💥 “That’s the just way I like to do it” and “That’s the way I’ve always done it” are not business strategies.

My friend got laid off from his software engineering job in 2022. 42 years old. $195k salary gone overnight. Meta, Google, and Amazon had just cut 200,000 jobs and the market was flooded with engineers. He spent 14 months in an electrical apprenticeship. Last year he made $160k as a journeyman electrician specializing in data center builds. 2026 at 46 years old he make $270k with over time. The same data centers his former employer runs. He told me he will never work for anyone who can lay him off with a Zoom call again. Neither would I. Day 97 tagging @mikeroweworks because I want to bring awareness to the trades.
