The Republican River Basin WaterSustainability Task Force was approved by theNebraska Legislature Tuesday with an emergencyclause that will allow the appointment of membersto begin as soon as Gov. Dave Heineman signsLB1057 into law.
The vote was 48-0-1."Of course, water is the big issue in the
Republican Basin," Carlson said about whyLB1057 was his priority bill for the 2010 legisla-tive session. The focus is on complying with theRepublican River Compact and the need to send acertain amount of water to Kansas each year.
"The fear in the basin is what happens in awater-short year," he said, adding that it's esti-mated 166,000 irrigated acres in Nebraska couldhave no irrigation and no compensation to meet

Al Dutcher ReportWeather Commentary Provided By Al Dutcher—UNL, State Climatologist
The only areas ofthe state to receiveabove normal mois-ture during the past14 days were areas ofsouth central andsoutheast Nebraska.These locations werelocated on the north-ern fringe of a stormtrack that droppedheavy rains and/orsnow to easternKansas and
Oklahoma. The drier conditions were welcomeas producers were able to get back to harvest-ing the remainder of last years corn crop andbegin spring field preparations. It appears thatan aggressive storm pattern will continue dur-ing the next two week period as the storm trackpushes farther north and places Nebraskaunder the gun for several significant precipita-tion events.
Week One Forecast, 4/3 - 4/9: The stormresponsible for rain/snow mix across northwestNebraska and rain and/or thunderstormsacross the remainder of the state has movedeast of the state. Some lingering showers arepossible across the eastern 1/4 of the state dur-ing the morning hours of 4/3. High tempera-tures will range from the upper 40's north tomid 50's south. Highs will be in the 50's on 4/4,warming into the 60's on 4/5. Low pressurewill organize over south central Wyoming on4/5 and be located over south central Nebraskaby 4/6. Weather models indicate the brunt ofprecipitation will be confined to the Dakota’sand Minnesota, with thunderstorm possibleacross eastern Nebraska during the afternoonhours. Recent models have placed systems toofar north of their eventual track, so it is not outof the question that the modeled precipitationwill fall further south and have a bigger impacton the state. No precipitation is projected bythe models for the 4/7-4/9 period. Clouds willkeep highs in the mid 40's to mid 50's on 4/7,but sunny skies will warm temperatures into
the upper 50's to low 60's on 4/8. Highs are pro-jected to be in the 60's on 4/9, with low 70's pos-sible southwest.
Week Two Forecast, 4/10 - 4/16: Weather mod-els indicate that warm and dry conditions arelikely from 4/10 through 4/12. Highs are pro-jected to be in the 70's, with a few low 80's pos-sible across south central and southwestNebraska. Another upper air trough will enterthe western United States during the periodand begin ejecting energy into the central andsouthern U.S. on 4/13. Thunderstorms are pro-jected by weather models on a daily basis forthe state through 4/15 before high pressurebuilds back into the central U.S. If this fore-casted event verifies, significant moisture inexcess of two inches will likely occur acrossmost of Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and Iowa.Highs during the 4/13-4/15 period are projectedto range from the mid 60's to mid 70's. Highs on4/16 are projected to cool into the 50's.

What does ‘healthy’ look like? Inthis day and age, it is easy to find avariety of answers to that question.From supplements to exercisemachines, the media is flooded withways for people to feel better andlook younger.
However, one simple, often over-looked way to improve health andwell being is just a faucet turn away.Water is a nutrient that is often over-looked or underestimated, but playsa vital role in major body functions.
It is commonly known that theabsence of water in the human bodycan lead to dehydration, but what isthe purpose of consuming water?Water supports many functions inthe body, including:
• Serving the transportation sys-tem of the body
• Water acts as the carrier to pro-vide other essential vitamins andnutrients to the body
• Acting as a lubricant• Water defends the body against
shock. Water is present in the diges-tive system and can aide in smooth
movements for the bone joints• Participating in biochemical
reactions• Digesting proteins and carbohy-
drates into forms usable in the bodydepends on the presence of water aspart of the chemical reaction
• Regulating body temperature• The human body is composed of
60-75% water. Water changes tem-perature slowly allowing our bodiesto remain within a healthy tempera-ture range.
Each day water loss is balancedwith water intake. Thirst is the keyto letting us know when it is time todrink more water. Unlike othernutrients, there is no standard dailyrecommendation for the amount ofwater that should be consumed.Typically, adults should drink 6-8 8-ounce glasses of water daily. Peoplewith special needs, such as infants,children, athletes and older folksmay require more water per day.
With one of the most importantdaily nutrients at your fingertips, fillup a glass and take a sip to goodhealth!

U s e d C o w D e a l e r ( B e s t O f )by Lee Pitts
I’ve got a question for you. Knowing whatyou know about me from reading my col-umn for all these many years, would youfeel safe in buying a cow from me?
I didn’t think so. But, surprisingly, myneighbors would... and often do. In fact,through the years my neighbors havebought several cows from me and from thisexperience I have formulated my numberone rule of used cow trading: NEVER,EVER SELL A USED COW TO YOURNEIGHBOR!
I’m always hanging around auctions andthis, coupled with an itchy bidding finger,means I am always overstocked. I usuallybuy off-season cows or the cows nobody elsewants during the dry time of the year. ThenI repackage them, mark them up 20% overblue book and when it rains and everyonegets grass fever I put them out front in myused cow lot next to the highway. The qual-ity of the offering is such that the phonecalls pour in. Just last year I got a call. Myneighbors usually show up in tandem, kickthe tires and then offer me 20% less thanwhat I paid for the cows in the first place. Idon't ever make any money trading usedcows but it gives me a certain prestige inour community; a reputation similar tobeing a used car dealer.
Its not all glamour though. Last week Iwent shopping with my wife and my neigh-bor yells to me across the parking lot, "Oneof our Pitts' cows prolapsed yesterday!"Five years ago I sold these neighbors some
bred cows. They have since weaned calvesoff that cumulatively have brought tentimes more than what they paid for thecows. And they still have the cows! Thisyear's calf that belongs to the prolapsedcow will probably bring 150% more thanwhat they paid for the cow in the firstplace. That’s better than what BernieMadoff promised. And unlike him, I wouldnever steal from my friends. But my neigh-bors were mad at me because the cow pro-lapsed and they had to voice their displeas-ure in a way that half the town was madeaware of my shortcomings.
The hardest time of the year for a usedcow dealer is when I go help all my neigh-bors preg check their cows. The usual pro-cedure is that the vet inserts his arm, getsa frown on his face, and says in a loudvoice, "Open." Then one of my neighborssays, "It must be a Pitts cow." I am sup-posed to hide my head in shame. Then thevet, instead of just drawing a circle on therump indicating her openness, writes "P I TT S" on the side of the cow. He does this, Ithink, because he’s still a little peeved atme about the cows I once sold him. If ever aPitts cow is safe the vet whispers it.
It is truly remarkable to me how all theopen Pitts cows have multiplied becauseeverywhere I go any cow that is open isreferred to as a Pitts Cow! They multipliedfaster than the Octomom. Any cow thatbreaks the headgate is a Pitts cow, despiteher brand, as are all the cancer eyes, fence
breakers and wild ones. It’s totally amazinghow spending just 20 minutes in my usedcow lot can have such a bad influence.(With this high cow market they should begrateful that the cows are open.)
Making matters worse, it’s not just cows.The vet called one of my neighbor’s cowssafe only three months but my neighborsaid that was impossible. So he said, "Itmust have been a Pitts bull."
The next cow with a Pitts brand was safefive months but she had a little cancer eyeon the one eye that remained. My neighborasked if he should keep her or sell her. Ireplied that I wouldn't take any chancesand I'd sell her now. Then another neighborpiped up and said, "The only reason Pittswants you to sell her is that he knows she'sgot a big calf in her and he'll show up at thesale and buy her back for butcher price andthen sell her to one of us next fall."
I’m hurt that someone would say or thinkthat about me. I’m not that despicable andnever would have thought of such a thing.But now that you mention it...

Livestock, Pasture, and Range Report: Thefollowing are comments from Nebraska’s FSACounty Executive Directors and County ExtensionEducators:NORTHWEST
BOX BUTTE: Wheat is greening up even in con-cerned areas. The wind erosion that occurredthrough January was limited due to snow cover.The year appears to be average at this point. Nosugar beets planted yet this year.
SHERIDAN: Most snow cover is gone except inlocalized parts of the county and most of the waterponds from the snow melt have soaked in. Oncethe ground dries out a little more producers willbe anxious to get in the fields.NORTHEAST
BOONE: Cold and wet conditions have led toabove average calf losses in the area. Snow ismostly melted and the county received little or norain this weekend which aided the drying process.
CEDAR: The weather conditions have been veryfavorable for snow melt this year with very little
runoff and no flooding. The cow/calf producers arefighting some mud but most have not reportedproblems with calving. Hay is in tight supply.
DIXON: With the snow melt and cool, wetweather over the past three weeks, calving condi-tions have been poor to very poor for producers.Producers have been busy moving farm-storedgrain to avoid losses due to spoilage.
THURSTON: Feed lots and calvingpastures/lots have been extremely muddy thisspring. Feeders are reporting poor gains and high-er death losses than normal. Cow-calf herd opera-tors have experienced greater losses than normaldue to the mud and cool damp weather. In the pastweek, farmers have been able to make someprogress in harvesting 2009 corn left in the fieldsover winter. There will be 5-20% loss in mostfields. Corn moisture levels have remained highthrough the winter.CENTRAL
BUFFALO: Fields are still extremely wet. Somelimited stalk shredding and limited NH3 applica-tions. Some cattle have been moved to grass justto get them out of the mud. Farmers are anxiousto get into the fields.EAST
DODGE: Some corn is still being harvested andtaken to town while some are taking a few loadsout of the bins because of condition of grain.Producers are getting planters and other springtillage equipment ready for the field.
NANCE/BOONE: Welcome drier conditions thepast week. Cattle yards are extremely muddy butsun and breeze has improved conditions the past
few days. Cowmen are busy with calving withsome experiencing above normal calf losses andscours. Hay supplies are running short.
SARPY/DOUGLAS: Some corn harvest occur-ring but ground is still pretty soft.SOUTHWEST
KEITH/ARTHUR: Fieldwork is beginning indryer areas. Not many reports of calf losses thisspring. Wheat that was able to be planted last fallis reported to be average.SOUTH CENTRAL
FURNAS: Wet conditions have complicated calv-ing situations and have grain producers anxiousabout field prep and planting.
HARLAN: The wheat is starting to come out ofdormancy and the earlier planted wheat looksvery good. The wheat planted after corn or soy-bean harvest is greening, but far behind the sum-mer fallow wheat.
PHELPS: Wet, cool weather has caused somecalf lose because of sickness. Most producers areanxious to start fieldwork. Most areas are still wetwhich will delay planting preparations.Rangeland is in good condition and beginning toshow green.SOUTHEAST
FILLMORE: Things were finally starting to dryup, but then Fillmore County received rainfall(around .75") Saturday which will continue todelay fieldwork. Increased calving losses reporteddue to mud in calving areas.
GAGE: Delayed fieldwork becoming a concern.

SED Trudy Kareus, Executive Director forUSDA’s Farm Service Agency in (Colorado)announced today that FSA has teamed up withthe U.S. Census Bureau to encourage all farmersand ranchers to complete the 2010 census.
"I believe rural America is the heart and thesoul and the guts of America. And, I believe thatwe have to start paying real attention to our farmfamilies and to those who live in rural America ifwe want to preserve that value system, " saidSED Kareus. "So, it's important for us to figureout new strategies and different strategies andexpanded strategies for bringing prosperity backto the farm, prosperity back to the ranch, andprosperity back to rural communities."
These strategies begin with the completion ofthe census forms, which were mailed in March toall residents in the United States and PuertoRico. They are comprised of 10 questions andtake only 10 minutes to complete and mail backin the postage-paid envelope. The questionsinclude names of residents, ages, sex, date ofbirth, race, relationship to the head of the house-hold, whether the resident rents or owns and atelephone number should the Census Bureauhave any questions.
Having everyone counted is critical to the secu-
rity of rural communities and will ensure thatthe more than $400 billion in federal funding willbe allocated to these communities annually tosupport schools, broadband initiatives, hospitals,emergency services and public works projects.
The census, which is taken every 10 years, alsois used to determine the number of seats a statehas in the House of Representatives and toapportion representatives equally among the 50states.
The need for rural America to be counted in thecensus has grown since it was first implementedin 1790. Back then, the 13 original states had apopulation of 3.6 million, with 94.9 percent livingin rural areas. By 1990, that number significant-ly decreased to 24 percent of the population liv-ing in rural areas.
Yet, according to SED Kareus it is the farmersand ranchers who are the backbone of ruralAmerica and provide the food, fiber and waterthat is essential to all Americans, whether theylive in rural, urban or suburban areas.
"This prosperity starts by each farmer andrancher completing the 2010 Census, " said SEDKareus. It’s not only the law, but an avenue usedto help revive America’s farm, food and values.Everyone needs to be counted. "
Census Vital to Farmers, Ranchers, and Rural America By Erin Newens, The Scottsbluff Star-Herald
It is spring in the valley, and while some peopleare trying to decide which flowers or vegetables toplant in their gardens, area farmers and ranchersare thinking about planting, harvesting and feed-ing.
They're also wondering how much the fuel to getall that done is going to cost them. After a coupleof summers of moderate prices, the numbers areon the rise. As spring dawns, prices range from$2.74 for a gallon of regular unleaded to $2.98 pergallon for diesel, and prices are expected to rise inthe coming months. For farmers and ranchers inthe valley, that can mean a pretty tight budget.
"You can't avoid it," said Mitchell farmer AndyGrentz. "You have to have fuel to run your equip-ment."
Grentz said there are a couple of different waysto buy diesel fuel. You can buy in bulk, takingdelivery by a certain date. This method locks in aprice, which means substantial savings, he said.
If a farmer buys a few thousand gallons now, anddoesn't take delivery until later in the summer, heor she can't be charged more even if fuel prices risebetween now and when your fuel is delivered,Grentz said.
The other less-desirable option means taking a

We all know the story of Hansel and Gretel – thetwo children who discover a house made of candyand other goodies only to find out it is a deceptionby a wicked witch and the truth is much more dan-gerous.
In many ways the recently passed health care billresembles the house made of candy. It too hasunfortunate realities waiting to be discovered.
It is true the first year provisions of the bill arepopular fixes. It will allow those with pre-existingconditions to enter high-risk pools. It prohibits thepractice of rescinding existing health insurancepolicies when a person gets sick. It prohibits insur-ers from imposing lifetime limits and restricts theuse of annual limits while extending dependent cov-erage for unmarried young adults until the age of26.
That is the candy. Now comes the oven. The truth of the matter is the Democrats used
nearly every trick in their book and every method ofarm-twisting to get this bill passed. Now they areengaging in a “full-speed-ahead” push to convinceus this massive growth of bureaucracy is a good bill.
Just prior to signing the health care bill,President Obama claimed there would be no cuts in“guaranteed benefits” for seniors – despite the factthere are $528.5 billion in cuts to Medicare.
Already, American manufacturers are warningabout how much the health care overhaul will costthem. Both Deere & Co. and Caterpillar are report-ing the bill will result in their reported earningsdeclining by $150 million and $100 million respec-tively because of the mandates and tax increasesincluded in the bill.
Insurance companies have been told they mustinsure everyone regardless of health. But the costhas to come from somewhere, meaning premiumswill rise to compensate for those more at risk.Because the bill limits how much premiums canrise based on age, much of this cost will fall onyounger people who can least afford the increasedcosts.
This is a bad bill, and flying around the countrygiving speeches isn’t going to change the minds ofNebraskans who are familiar with the bill. Theyoppose a government takeover of health care. They
oppose the job-killing tax increases, individualmandates, and the creation of “incentives” whichwill result in millions of Americans losing thehealth insurance they have.
Health care reform should be patient-centered toincrease access to care and reduce cost withoutbankrupting our nation and limiting our liberties.The fight to enact common sense reforms to pre-serve and protect health care must be fought, but itshouldn’t be a public relations war. The Americanpeople are eager to embrace a plan which willexpand access, preserve quality, strip away the bar-riers to insurance competition, and finally addressthe runaway costs of lawsuit abuse.
This can be done by allowing individuals to bandtogether across state lines, allowing tax deductibil-ity to everyone for the cost of premiums, and crack-ing down on junk lawsuits.
As Milton Friedman once said, there’s no suchthing as a free lunch. That adage certainly appliesto this health care bill. Like Hansel and Gretel, Iam afraid our country is in for an unpleasant sur-prise once the sugar rush has worn off.

compact compliance in such years. "... It'sabsolutely frightening."
The bill says the task force will "define watersustainability for the Republican River Basin,develop and recommend a plan to help reachwater sustainability in the basin, and develop andrecommend a plan to help avoid a water-shortyear in the basin."
A preliminary report to the governor andLegislature is due by May 15, 2011; the finalreport is due by May 15, 2012; and the task forceauthorization terminates June 30, 2012.
The task force will have 22 voting membersappointed by the governor:
• Two from each of the basin's four naturalresources districts.
• Four from the basin's irrigation districts.• One each from the University of Nebraska
Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources,Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, and statedepartments of agriculture and natural resources.
• One each from a local school district, a city, acounty and a public power district in the basin.
• Two from ag-related businesses in the basin.The chair of the Executive Board of the
Legislative Council will name four ex officio, non-voting members from the Legislature, includingtwo who are residents of the basin, one with a leg-
islative district that's in a portion of the basin,and the chairperson of the Legislature's NaturalResources Committee.
The task force will be housed at DNR for admin-istrative and budgetary purposes. Additional advi-sory support may be requested from other stateand federal agencies.
"I hope we can get those (task force) applicationsout really quick. I called (DNR Director) BrianDunnigan's office yesterday, and they're alreadyworking on it," Carlson told the Hub this morning.
He expects that he, Imperial Sen. MarkChristensen and Natural Resources CommitteeChairman Chris Langemeier of Schuyler will haveinput on task force members. Carlson hopes theapplications can be returned within 30 days afterthey're ready.
The legislation says the first task force meetingmust be within 30 days of the appointments sothat a chairperson can be elected and other orga-nizational business can be conducted. A trainedfacilitator must be hired to conduct meetings,which must be scheduled no less than quarterly.
"I'm hoping we can find a facilitator within thestate of Nebraska who understands the waterissues," Carlson said.
Funding will be through a new Republican RiverBasin Water Sustainability Task Force Cash Fund
administered by DNR that will hold state-appro-priated funds and any money received as gifts,grants, donations or transfers. The bill authorizesthe immediate transfer of $50,000 from the WaterPolicy Task Force Cash Fund.
Carlson is convinced that bringing keyRepublican Basin groups together to work as atask force will result in something positive. "Theywill look at what is sustainable, develop a planand make recommendations about what to do in awater-short year," he said, emphasizing that itstill will be up to the NRDs and irrigation districtsto implement any actions.
The other priority water bill for the RepublicanBasin, Christensen's LB862, was advanced onfirst reading by the Legislature Tuesday.
It would fix language in 2007's LB701 thatauthorized Republican Basin NRDs to issue bondsfor water projects and repay the debt with anoccupation tax on irrigated acres. The new lan-guage would expand that authority to all NRDswith integrated water management plans.
Carlson said the bill had strong support in thefirst round and he expects that to carry into thesecond vote on select file and then to final readingbefore the legislative session adjourns April 14.
BILL PASSES TO CREATE REPUBLICAN BASIN TASK FORCEContinued from page 1
World-Herald Editorial
Legislative Bill 862, which would helpRepublican River irrigators protect themselvesfrom the consequences of drought, is sailing aheadin the Nebraska Legislature. The proposal, up forsecond-round consideration, is an appropriatechange that would serve the state well both nowand in the future.
The bill, sponsored by Sen. Mark Christensen ofImperial, takes the limited funding language of aprevious water measure and opens it up; the prin-ciples laid down in LB 862 could conceivably beapplied in any area of the state.
Under current law, only Republican River natu-ral resources districts would be able to qualify tocollect an occupation tax from irrigators to be usedfor a limited number of remedies in a water-shortyear.
The Republican basin has been in troublebecause of a lawsuit filed by Kansas and a settle-ment in which Nebraska officials agreed to abideby the rules of a 1943 compact. As a result, irriga-tors in the basin need to leave a specific amount ofwater in the Republican where it flows over thestate line.
AdvertisingIn the drought years of much of thefirst decade of the 21st century, the state failed inits efforts, in large part due to unregulated but notillegal underground pumping by irrigators in thebasin.
The state Department of Natural Resources hasformulated fall-back plans to cut water use in theRepublican basin during drought years if NRDsaren’t able to do the job. State Sen. Tom Carlson ofHoldrege characterized those plans as “very harshregulation” that could leave 166,000 acres withoutirrigation from either groundwater or surfacewater, without compensation.
Irrigators could lose $32 million; communitiesdependent on their success would suffer, too.
LB 862 could forestall such drastic action.The proposed law would allow NRDs that meet
specific criteria to collect the occupation tax andspend it on such practical actions as removingvegetation from the streambed, paying farmers toidle irrigation pumps and using groundwater toaugment the level of the Republican River.
Only NRDs that have integrated water manage-ment plans filed with and approved by the stateDepartment of Natural Resources (DNR) couldeven begin the process of levying an occupationtax of up to $10 per irrigated acre. Locally elected
NRD boards would have to apply to the DNR forapproval; the tax wouldn’t be applied until after anumber of reviews, public hearings and votes bythe local board.
As Sen. Christensen notes, the proposed law hasmany checks and balances and leaves control overwhether, when and how an occupation tax will beapplied in local hands. While the law would beavailable for use by other NRDs, Christensen saidhe didn’t believe any would need to or be able totake advantage of it for quite a while.
The proposed law clarifies a technical tanglethat resulted after court rulings over a specialproperty tax allowed under previous water man-agement law.Passage of LB 862 would clear upany doubt about the breadth and application ofthe tax.
Some senators have argued that LB 862 is pre-mature; action, they say, should wait on the courtfindings concerning the previous law.
But the Legislature should get ahead of this par-ticular curve and pre-empt any court action thatmight cause problems for irrigators while theywait for lawmakers to act.
The laws affecting the state’s water resourcesshould be clear, decisive, fair and farsighted. LB862 meets those benchmarks.

Soybean trade has been mixed in activetrade this week; crude oil strength supportedthe markets early, but selling interest devel-oped following the negative USDA reports.Heading into Thursday, the weekly netchanges are 11 lower for May beans andNovember is steady. Meal is $5.10 lower andoil is down 64. The USDA Quarterly Stocksand Planting Intention report was releasedon Wednesday morning. The soybeanacreage intentions number was at 78.1 mil-lion which was below the 78.55 average tradeguess, but within the 77.43 to 79.5 millionacre range of expectations. The quarterlystocks estimate was at 1.270 billion versusthe average trade guess of 1.207 billion andrange of 1.16 to 1.270. So this was at the highside of estimates, which is negative. Thelarger than expected soybean and cornMarch 1 Quarterly Stocks suggest a demandscenario which has been over stated this pastquarter and implies the third and fourthquarters of this crop year may be disappoint-
ing as well. The Hog and Pig report this pastFriday would suggest a lower demand sce-nario that supports the lower than expectedstocks. There are limited reasons to be bull-ish long-term, but the ongoing Argentinestrike along with supportive outside marketscould continue to limit downside; analysts doexpect that the strike will be negotiatedshortly. Recent rains in Brazil have alsodelayed harvest activity there which shouldkeep China interested in U.S. supplies near-term. The weekly export sales report wasreported old crop sales at 178,500 tons of oldcrop and 210,000 tons of new crop, which wasinline with expectations. Meal sales were at68,100 tons of old crop and but we saw netcancellations of 11,300 tons of new crop.Soybean oil sales were good at 14,000 tons ofold crop. Meal sales were below expectationswhile oil sales were as expected. Hedgers webelieve you should get caught up on desiredsales levels if you have not and call us to dis-cuss your individual situation.
Corn trade has been lower this weekdue to early position squaring and anegative USDA Quarterly Stocks andPlanting Intentions report. After threedays of trade, the weekly net change is11 lower on the May contract andDecember is down 9. The outside mar-ket influence has limited downside;crude is $3.39 higher on the May con-tract, the dollar is 69 lower, and theDOW is up 20. The USDA reports thisweek have been the feature with posi-tion squaring early and then sellinginterest following the neutral to nega-tive numbers on Wednesday. TheUSDA March Quarterly Stocks num-ber came in at 7.694 billion versus theMarch 1 average trade guess 7.505 andrange of 7.318 billion to 7.758 billion.The USDA acreage report was neutralwith the March 31st USDA PlantingIntentions number at 88.8 million
acres versus the average trade guess of88.94 million with a range of 87 to 90.2million acres. The higher stocks num-ber suggests lower usage this pastquarter, which would now project theold crop carryover closer to 2 billionbushels versus the 1.8 billion seen onthe last report. Most of the negativeitems should be priced-in, and endusers will be scaling in on weakness,but renewed buying interest may notemerge without a significant weatherscare. This is a short week due to theEaster holiday on Friday so some lightprofit taking by market shorts mayshow up ahead of the long weekend.The weekly export sales were reportedat 826,100 tons of old crop and newcrop sales came in at 400 tons, com-bined they were above expectations.Hedgers call with questions.

Wheat trade has been lower thisweek due to chart selling and poorfundamentals. After three days oftrade, the weekly net change is 14lower in Chicago and KC, andMinneapolis is down 15. The USDAreports on Wednesday were noted forthe weakness. The all wheat plantedacreage was at 53.83 million acresversus the 53.33 million averagetrade guess and 59.13 million lastyear. The spring wheat acreage num-ber was at 13.91 million which was 35thousand acres higher than expected.To recap the acre situation, there are5.3 million fewer acres of wheat thisyear, 2.32 million more corn acres,650 thousand more beans, and 1.36million more cotton acres. This means
there is still about a million acresplus some added CRP acres availablefor crop this year that could go intoproduction - meaning the bias towardmore acres should be a concern look-ing forward. This bias coupled withour growing stocks is bearish. TheQuarterly Stocks were at 1.352 billionversus the average estimate of 1.364billion with a range of 1.332 to 1.398billion. Potential wet weather couldstill limit spring wheat planting, butany rally that does occur should beviewed as a selling opportunity. Theweekly export sales were reported at430,600 tons of old crop and 53,000tons of new which was above expecta-tions. Hedgers call with questions.

The spring semester has proved to be a bit chal-lenging with all of the snow; but we are glad to seethe grass and the corn left in the fields!
We started 2010 off by going to livestock judg-ing. One senior team (Chase Miller, ElizabethStarzl, Derick Lux, and Austin Gutzmann) quali-fied for the state competition. Proficiency applica-tions brought our chapter one gold rating in BeefPlacement by Elizabeth Starzl. Elizabeth’s profi-ciency got fourth at districts and just barelymissed out on state qualifying.
FFA Week was very busy and fun for FFA mem-bers, community members, and students at school.Throughout the week we had trivia questions:Nebraska’s farmers and ranchers utilize _______million acres; which were rewarded with prizeslike t-shirts, FFA water bottles, and bags. Mondaywe wore our FFA t-shirts to school. Tuesday wedid an activity with the elementary. We had threedifferent sections for about 60 elementary stu-dents: Learning Barn (from the Dixon CountyFarm Bureau) where students learned about farmmachinery and practices and then could play withpuzzles, puppets, and toys; Petting zoo where stu-dents learned about and could pet a rabbit, lamb,and calf; and Soil Horizon cups where studentslearned about the layers of soil and then got tomake a sample soil horizon of crushed up oreos,wafers, and other candy. Thursday was our
Agricultural Appreciation Breakfast. We feed over100 farmers, business people, teachers and FFAmembers. Thank you to our sponsors: MichaelFoods, Lux Brothers, Rohde’s, Sebade’s, and FirstNebraska Bank for making this possible for allthose who contribute to our community and theworld of agriculture. Friday was drive farmmachinery to school day. We had a selection, froman old Allis-Chalmers to a CAT pulling a manurespreader. Friday afternoon we also took sevenstudents down to Kearney for MFE/ALD wherestudents learned about goal setting and careers inagriculture.
Shortly after FFA Week was district CareerDevelopment Events. Emerson-Hubbard tookteams to compete in Ag Sales, AgriScience, MeatEvaluation/ID, Farm Business Management,Welding, and Livestock Management. The AgSales team (Elizabeth Starzl, Shelby Strivens,Samantha Hogan, and Danielle Lux) qualified tocompete at state.
State Convention is quickly approaching! Weare looking forward to competing in contests,attending workshops and listening to speakers.Spring banquet, labor auction, COLT, and end ofthe year picnic are just a few of the activities thatwe have planned to finish out the year strong!
By the way: Nebraska’s farmers and ranchersutilize 45.6 million acres.

Nebraska producers expect to increase acreageplanted to corn, soybeans, dry edible beans, and sun-flowers, decreasing acreage devoted to hay, sorghum,sugarbeets, and wheat (sown last fall), while leavingoat acreage unchanged from a year ago, according toUSDA=s National Agricultural Statistics Service,Nebraska Field Office.
Nebraska corn growers expect to plant 9.2 million
acres for all purposes in 2009, up 1 percent from2009.
Soybean growers intend to plant 4.9 million acres,up 2 percent from last year.
Last fall, winter wheat was sown on 1.6 millionacres, down 6 percent from a year earlier and 9 per-cent below the 2008 crop. This would be the smallestwinter wheat planted acreage since records began in
1909.Sorghum growers expect to plant 210,000 acres,
down 25,000 acres or 11 percent from last year andthe smallest acreage since 1931. Dry edible beanproducers intend to plant 160,000 acres, up 30,000acres from 2009.
Sugarbeet plantings of 46,000 acres would bedown 7,000 acres from a year ago. Sunflower plant-ing intentions, at 70,000 acres, are up 18,000 acresfrom last year. Oat planting intentions, at 100,000acres, are unchanged from 2009.
Hay acreage for harvest, at 2.65 million, would bedown 2 percent from last year.
These acreage estimates are based on surveys con-ducted the first two weeks of March.
This report is intended to assist growers in finaliz-ing their acreage plans for 2010. Actual area plant-ed may vary from that indicated due to farmer’s finalassessment of planting options, effects of weather,availability of production inputs, and changes inprice expectations for the coming crop year.

Nebraska’s March 1, 2010 Prospective Plantings
By Robert Pore, The Grand Island Independent
Scientists at the USDA Agricultural ResearchService's Roman L. Hruska U.S. Meat AnimalResearch Center (USMARC) in Clay Center haveidentified the causes of heat stress in cattle, as wellas ways to manage it.
While ARS scientists are dealing with heat stress,Terry Mader, University of Nebraska-Lincoln beefcattle specialist, is trying to help producers deal withanother problem. Ample moisture this winter andearly spring are making for a muddy feedlot situa-tion, he said, and keeping pens clean and cattle dryis critical for cattle producers.
At the Clay Center ARS center, scientists said heatstress during hot Nebraska summers is a significantproblem for producers. Heat stress can result indiminished appetite and feed intake, reduced growthrate, compromised disease resistance and, inextreme cases, death.
What ARS is finding is that extremely high tem-peratures overwhelm an animal's natural ability toregulate its body temperature. But other factors areinvolved, the scientists pointed out, and understand-ing them is essential for predicting, preventing andresponding to potential heat-stress scenarios.
Scientists are working together with cooperators todevelop risk-assessment tools and management
strategies for producers. This work has three maincomponents: analyzing animal susceptibility, identi-fying contributing environmental factors, and evalu-ating management techniques.
In one study, USMARC agricultural engineer TamiBrown-Brandl and colleagues conducted severalstudies to identify factors that contribute to animalsusceptibility to heat stress. They identified 11 influ-ential factors, including coat color, health history andtemperament.
In another study, Brown-Brandl and USMARCagricultural engineers Roger Eigenberg and JohnNienaber looked at environmental factors affectingthe intensity of heat stress. They developed a modelthat incorporates predictions of how temperature,humidity, sun intensity, and wind speed will affectheat stress.
The model is available online atwww.ars.usda.gov/Main/docs.htm?docid=17130.
But for UNL beef specialist Mader, this year's wetconditions are a concern " particularly in easternNebraska, where producers had excessive moistureand a good amount of snow deposited in feed yards.
"There isn't a lot you can do but push the snow andmud out and try to get cattle on a solid base," he said.
Under these conditions, Mader recommends ani-mals have 250 square feet of pen space per head,with 350 or more square feet even better. Smaller
areas become muddier quicker and stay muddierlonger.
"If you have cattle crowded, that can present someproblems. So if you have an empty pen, use it," hesaid. "This will help minimize the depth of the mud."
Mader said this winter will result in the cost ofgains being about 10 to 15 percent greater than nor-mal.
According to Mader, when cattle get wet, they getmuddy and can carry up to 50 pounds of mud on theircoats. Maintenance requirements can double underwet and cold conditions, which for feedlot cattle mayresult in 10 to 20 more days on feed or being 50 pluspounds lighter when cattle can go to market.
In addition to good pen cleaning, bedding is impor-tant, Mader said. "If you can use enough to whereyou can get the animal dry, it can be very beneficial,"he said.
Mader said his research and research elsewhereshow producers will see benefits from bedding, par-ticularly when it is priced in the $50 to $60 a tonrange.
"Instead of having a 15 to 20 percent cost of gainincrease, it may only be a 5 to 10 percent increaseand that includes the extra bedding and beddinghandling cost," he said.
USDA Study Focuses on Managing, Alleviating Heat Stress in Cattle
Your farm's appearance helps shape publicopinion about your operation; and the machineshed is a good place to start sprucing up, saysOhio State agricultural engineer Brian Strobel.
As seen from the roadside, color and neatnessare probably the two most important factors invisual sightliness, Strobel says. "Use yourfarm's colors to highlight buildings," he says."If you have a primary color, say red or white,consider a highlight color for the trim."
Next check the shed entrance. Is there anapron or a proper approach? Think about all-weather surface maintenance. They may needmore gravel or asphalt, depending on require-ments.
Also, night light will enhance the entrancewhen long work days extend into darknessespecially during spring field operations.
Landscaping will enhance the building'sappearance. Consider shrubs for year-roundgreenery, as well as annuals, grass, and trees.
Think about the exterior's condition. Metalroofs should be screwed down and rust-free.Paint every seven years to limit rusting, andconsider a fibrous aluminum paint for metalroofs. Check asphalt roofs for missing orcracked shingles and popped nails. Also cleangutters. They may need a screened guard tokeep out leaves and trash, birds nests, etc. Ifthere are no gutters, consider adding gravelaround the perimeter to limit splashing.
Make sure sliding doors roll well and swing-ing doors don't sag. Consider installing anautomatic opener for an overhead door. Also
check all door seals. Be surewindows are clean andrepaired.
Get organized inside. Havea clearly defined work area,equipment storage area, toolstorage and inventory. Makesure there's an exhaust fanin the welding area.Consider a sealant to coatconcrete floors. This givesbetter traction and can pro-tect it from oil or water dam-age.
Discard unused boxes andpapers. Save same-sizedboxes and label them.Uniformity adds to neatness.Absorb oil spills and disposeof the rags. Have a trash canand broom handy to encour-age employees to sweep.
Plan for visitors. Could anoutsider find parts? Is thereplenty of room to walk, orare there hazards? Do yourvents assure you of gettingfresh air? Do you haveenough ceiling and wall insulation?
The easiest way to have a neat facility is tokeep up with it, but don't try to do everythingat once. For other ideas, look at the Farm ShopPlans Book (MWPS-26), available fromExtension offices for $6.

4. Press the completed block on the right sidetaking care not to stretch or distort it. It is agood idea to use a dry iron or only minimalsteam. Your blocks should measure 6 ½” x 6 1/2”.
SEWING THE QUILT TOGETHER:1. Lay out your blocks on a bed or the floor
using the diagram provided.2. Sew six blocks together, right sides together,
matching center seams to make one row.3. Sew two rows together, right sides together
and matching all seam allowances. It is easiest ifyou sew two rows at a time and then join eachset of rows.
SEW BORDERS TO THE QUILT:1. Measure your quilt across the sides and
middle. Use the average measurement for thelength of your side borders (It should be close to42 ½”.)
2. Measure each border strip and align themiddle of your border to the middle of your quilt.Carefully pin the border to your quilt and sew.Press seam toward the border. Using your rulerand rotary cutter, trim the ends (there probablywill not be much to trim).
3. Measure your quilt across the top, middleand bottom to get the average measurement.Your quilt should measure approximately 32 ½”.In the same manner, sew the top and bottom bor-ders to your quilt.
4. Measure, pin and sew the second border tothe sides of your quilt and then to the top andbottom
Quilting and Binding are the final steps.

The chapter was well represented at the DistrictLeadership Skills Events contest held inAinsworth in December. We will have our Jr. HighQuiz Bowl team compete at State Convention inApril after receiving 2nd place at Districts. TashaLechtenberg will also be competing at StateConvention in April after receiving DistrictChampion in Job Interview. Members also com-peted in Jr. Public Speaking, Sr. Public Speaking,Creed Speaking, and Cooperative Speaking at theDistrict level.
The Student Development Committee had abusy winter. They scheduled a visit from Santa’sReindeer to the Elementary School right beforeChristmas break. The popular question of the dayfor FFA members was “Can they really fly?”Members also assisted The Seed House by record-ing commercials at our local radio station, KBRX102.9 FM, for promotions.
The Chapter Development committee headed-upour first annual Fruit Sales. We worked with thelocal grocery store, Torpins Rodeo Market, to pur-chase the fruit that was sold in the community.This was a very successful fundraiser for our firstyear. We also sold popcorn, pastries, and variousmeat products with the fruit.
This committee was also responsible for the mostimportant week for FFA Chapters across thenation, National FFA Week. The week started offwith a Teacher & Staff Appreciation Lunch servedby all chapter members to show the school ourappreciation for their support of our new chapter.The majority of the meal was been donated by localbusinesses. Another activity that was a huge suc-cess was the “Penny Wars” Contest. Each teachercollected pennies in their classrooms and at theend of the week the 3 teachers that collected themost pennies kissed a pig during a student assem-bly on Friday. All the money raised during theweek was donated to the local Food Bank andHumane Society. The Principal, English teacher,and Math teacher won the contest. Over $400 dol-lars was raised from this alone. Tuesday was“Student Hat/Teacher Jean Day” where studentsmay pay one dollar to wear a hat all day in school,and teachers may pay a dollar to wear jeans.Wednesday was the Business and CommunitySupporter Appreciation Breakfast. The chapterserved a biscuit and gravy breakfast to over 150people, showing our appreciation for the incrediblesupport from the community.
Member also had the opportunity to go toNorfolk to compete in the District CareerDevelopment Events Contest. We had a WeldingTeam (Placed 6th), Floriculture Team (Placed 3rd),Agriscience Team (Placed 10th), and LivestockManagement Team (Placed 6th).

RISING FUEL PRICES A FACTOR OF LIFE ON THE FARMContinued from page 2
chance on buying less fuel at one time, whichsaves cash when other expenses are eating awayat farmers' and ranchers' wallets. The problem,of course, is they almost assuredly pay more inthe long run with this approach.
Sugar beet grower Myron Klein runs an opera-tion southwest of Hemingford. He said dieselprices are up 25 to 50 cents per gallon comparedto the same time last year.
"I contracted back in January to lock in a lowerprice for diesel," Klein said. "But the bright sideis fertilizer prices are going down."
Higher fuel prices not only mean more moneyspent at the pump, it also means higher seed andfeed prices, and lower profits at the end of thegrowing season. It becomes a trickle down effect.Trucking companies have to charge more to ship.In turn, retailers must charge more for the seedor anything else a farmer might need to keep hisbusiness running.
"The price of fuel drastically effects the price offertilizer, too" Grentz said.
However, Klein said he has seen a drop in fer-tilizer prices.
"It has to do with supply and demand, andmost of our fertilizer is imported so we deal in aglobal market" which means an adequate supplythat keeps his fertilizer costs down, he said.
But Grentz said higher fuel prices aren't arecent phenomenon. "You usually see a rise infuel prices in the summer, during tourist sea-son," he said.
It is something that people involved in agricul-ture deal with on a regular basis, and they try toplan accordingly. They find ways to deal with thealways-rising costs of operating a family farm.
Many families have one or more members thatwork outside the home, Grentz said. "It's a neces-sity to help offset costs," he said.
The price of fuel can make things difficult forfarm and ranch operations in the valley.However, most people that have chosen agricul-ture as their business wouldn't think of doinganything else. Many families have farmed thesame land for generations, and they understandthat there are a lot of variables that affect thebottom line. You can't always predict the weath-er, new technology can be expensive, and theprice of fuel can make things tight. But in theend, the product makes it worthwhile, the localfarmers said.
"The American farmer still produces low-cost,quality food for the American people" Klein said.
For him that is the bottom line, and it fuelshim to stay on the farm, working hard and grow-ing crops.

By Lori Potter, The Kearney Hub
Four core beef industry research topics alwayswill be safety, product enhancement, humannutrition and market research. However, issueswithin those cores constantly change.
Mandy Carr, executive director of beef safetyresearch for the Centennial, Colo.-based NationalCattlemen's Beef Association, said investing inresearch is "a deliberate process to identify whatthe end goal is and then decide how to get there."
She discussed with Nebraska Beef Councildirectors and staff Tuesday in Kearney the keys toselecting beef checkoff-funded research projectson the state and national levels.
Carr told the Hub that many ideas for the $6million invested in research by NCBA come frombeef producers. Some researchers contact NCBAwith ideas and sometimes "think tank" gatheringsof experts are assembled, presented with chal-lenges and asked for ideas to address specificissues or questions.
She told the Nebraska directors that time cyclesvary for different types of NCBA research. Forexample, market research is done over 15 months,safety and product enhancement projects are on a20-month cycle, and human nutrition work takes36 months because of strict guidelines and addedreviews that must be met for studies that involvefeeding people.
Carr said the actual research often takes oneyear, but extra time is required to requestresearch proposals, contract with universities,purchase cattle and test variables.
She reviewed some priorities in the four coreareas.
SafetyThe issues list includes the question of whether
there is any beef production link to concerns aboutmicrobial resistance in humans. Carr said no sci-entific link has been found, "but if we're not pro-viding the information, where do they get it?"
She emphasized that it's critical for beef indus-try officials to make sure beef information ondatabases and distributed to consumers is sci-ence-based and current.
A current goal is to optimize food safety systemsall along the supply and marketing chain. "Therehave been many advancements in technologies, so
what was in place 10 years ago might not be opti-mum today," Carr said. "How do we better utilizewhat (technologies) we already have?"
A 2010 research priority is a systems approachthat looks at which combinations of interventionswork best in addressing safety concerns. The worknever ends, she said, because "bacteria are livingorganisms whose sole goal is to survive."
An emerging challenge for researchers is todetermine if new bacteria affecting other animalspecies in Europe and Australia will have anyeffect on U.S. beef.
Product enhancementResearch, much of it done at the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln, discovered added-value beefcuts from the chuck roll several years ago, includ-ing flat iron, Delmonico, Denver-cut and Sierra-cut steaks.
Now, a similar effort is being made using theround. Carr said testing, naming and adaptingnew products for food service and retail customersare in progress, and the new cuts should beunveiled in August.
Other product research is focused on pre-har-vest management for beef color, marbling, flavor

Live cattle trade has higher thisweek due to chart buying and spilloversupport from the hog pit. Heading intoThursday, the weekly net changes are252 higher on the April contract andJune is up 198. Cash trade has beenslow to develop this week, but askingprices remain firm at $98/$157. Chainspeeds have increased recently whichillustrates good packer margins andthe ability to pay up for additional liveinventory. The cutout values finishedmixed on Wednesday with choice up 27at $163.75 and select was down 48 at$160.63. The big question remains
whether or not we can sustain demandat these prices, but chicken prices arenearly 15% higher versus a year agoand pork values are up almost 30%year on year. This will help beef staycompetitive in the retail market, andseasonally, we do expect increaseddemand as we approach the summermonths. On the chart, the trade didmove back above all major movingaverages, so the weakness last weekwas likely only a response to over-bought conditions.

This couldpromote follow-through buying but thetrade could see some profit taking bymarket longs ahead of the long weekend.
Cash trade has been steady to $1 higherthis week, but prices remain in the mid$60 range and the premium of deferredmonths over the cash price should havehigher cash priced into the futures.

and consistency of the chuck and round; process-ing methods to maximize shelf life; and testingnew microwave beef products.
Carr said existing national beef marketing infor-mation, such as cutting guides, are being translat-ed for foreign markets.
Human nutritionCarr said outdated consumer impressions are
keeping people from choosing beef. "Way backwhen, beef got its black eye for cholesterol andfat," she said, before there were distinctionsbetween "good fats" and "bad fats."
Beef cuts in the retail case that once had inchesof fat now have been trimmed to one-eighth of aninch or less.
Carr said such current information often is miss-ing from databases commonly used by physicians,dietitians and consumers. So a beef industry goalis to keep current, scientific data available tomake the case that today's beef is a lean, high-pro-tein, nutritionally dense food choice with benefitsfor people of all ages.
"'Lean' has a halo," Carr said. "If you say 'goodfats,' fat is still there. ... It doesn't resonate as well.It doesn't stay in the memory."
Nebraska Beef Council Executive Director AnnMarie Bosshamer of Amherst said research showsthat when "lean" is listed in front of any cut of beefor ground beef, it always scores higher with con-sumers.
Market researchData is tracked annually and even quarterly to
better understand consumers' preferences, whythey buy what they buy and key messages thatresonate with them. "We're looking at where con-sumers' minds are," Carr said.

NCBA OFFICIAL: 'LEAN' KEY
BEEF MARKETING MESSAGEContinued from page 2
By Tom Holman, UNL Extension Educator
Preliminary results for the year ending Feb. 1,2010, of the Annual Farm Real Estate ValuesSurvey, authored by University of NebraskaAgricultural Economist Bruce Johnson, havebeen released.
Panhandle cropland prices, both gravity andpivot, increased by more than 8 percent from the2009 survey, while grazing lands and hay landsdecreased. These results follow several relative-ly strong crop income years and relatively low-income years in the cattle industry.
Average value of Panhandle and state farm-land from 2010 preliminary survey (prices are indollars per acre):
Gravity irrigated: Panhandle, $1,625, 8.7 per-cent increase; state, $3,271, 5.2 percent increase
Center pivot irrigated: Panhandle, $1,660, 8.1percent increase; state, $3,507, 6.1 percentincrease.
Dry land (no irrigation potential): Panhandle,$490, 5.6 percent increase; state, $1,533, 6.4 per-cent increase.
Dry land (irrigation potential): Panhandle,$515, 3.0 percent increase; state, $2,587, 7.3 per-cent increase.
Hayland: Panhandle, $525, 4.5 percentdecrease; state, $801, 3.1 percent decrease.
Grazing land (non-tillable): Panhandle, $260,7.5 percent decrease; state, $424, 5.6 percentdecrease.
Grazing land (tillable): $320, 3.0 percentdecrease; state, $647, 0.3 percent decrease.
All lands (average): $465, 0.9 percent increase;state, $1,494, 4.4 percent increase.
Well-drilling restrictions in many parts of thePanhandle make dry land cropland (with irriga-tion potential) and grazing land (tillable) thin
markets with minimal supplies of acres, whichskews those markets. Tax swaps and sales toclose neighbors or to relatives are eliminated as"outliers" so that reported sales of all classes arenot skewed.
Farmland and grazing cash rental rates areincluded in this preliminary report. Due to largevariations in these two types of land classes, thereported numbers should be used to show trendsand as an amount to be used to negotiate rentalrates.
2010 crop land cash rental rates for thePanhandle (dollars per acre):
Dryland cropland: High, $39; low, $22; aver-age, $31.
Gravity-irrigated cropland: High, $139; low,$82; average, $115.
Center-pivot-irrigated cropland: High, $165;low, $114; average, $137.
Pasture: High, $14; low, $8; average, $11.2010 monthly pasture cash rental rates for the
Panhandle (dollars per acre): Cow-calf pairs (1.25-1.3 AU): High, $32.50; low,
$21.85; average, $26.40.Stocker (500-600 pound): High, $20.85; low,
$14.50; average, $18.00 The rate of return on real estate over the last
10-15 years has been similar to U.S. Treasuryinstruments. When held to maturity (five years),U.S. Treasury bonds give an annual return thatcan be used as a bench mark for annual realestate appreciation. Although both investmentscan move up and down, over time liquidity andthe lack of risk make these two investmentsmore similar than different.
