High school graduations have stolen theheadlines the past couple of weeks. Iapplaud you new “citizens of the real world.”

Little do you realize that in just a fewyears it will be your decisions shaping thedestiny of your communities, your state,even your nation. We’re presenting youwith an incredible challenge and a “bank-ruptcy legacy” that will continue to hauntindefinitely.

We continue to accept a growing entitle-ment society that only feeds upon itself.Yet in another 30 years this world willhave ballooned from 7 1/2 billion per-sons to 9 billion.

The biggest growth will be among theunder-privileged of China, India, Africa, even Brazil,that rapidly are moving into better incomes, betterdiets, a desire for a better education for their kids, anda free market economy for their farmers. What then?

Graduates of 2014, it will be your ballgame. Takecharge. You can’t mess up any more than we have.

■

Memorial Day weekend signals the start of sum-mer vacation time. More importantly it is our specialprivilege to honor America’s veterans. We still haveseveral thousand young men and women stationedin various countries around the world doing theirduty of protecting other people.

Sometimes it seems our government oversteps

those boundaries. But soldiers continuetheir duty because when they strap onthat uniform they carry on regardless thecalling.

Ponder for a moment these words by A.Lawrence Vaincourt: “Should you findyourself in danger, with your enemiesat your hand, would you really want a

politician with his ever-shifting stand? Or would youprefer a soldier, who has sworn to defend his home,his kin and country and would fight until the end?

“He was just a common soldier, and his ranks aregrowing thin, but his presence should remind us wemay need his like again. For when countries are inconflict, then we find the soldier’s part is to clean upall the troubles that the politicians start.

“If we cannot do him honor while he’s here to hearthe praise, then at least let’s give him homage at theending of his days. Perhaps just a simple headline ina paper that would say: ‘Our country is in mourning,a soldier died today’.”

Moving just six miles from a small cen-tral Illinois farm town to an even smaller,rural enclave in 2005 took the lovelyCatherine and me from a drafty, big houseon a leafy, wide street to a tighter, smallerhouse in a leafy, wide woods. Fabulous.

On the flip side, however, somewhereduring that short move my computercrossed a digital divide that took it from ahardwired, $45-per-month DSL jet to a$90-a-month, horse-and-buggy satellitesystem that — nine years later! — contin-ues to be powered by squirrels, operatedby snails and owned by snakes.

I have plenty of frustrated company. More than 100million country-dwelling Americans impatiently suf-fer through internet download speeds of less thanthree megabytes per second and upload speeds ofless than one megabyte, says Edyael Casaperalta,coordinator of the Rural Broadband Policy Group.

“That means for most of rural America,” Casaper-alta offers, “broadband internet isn’t a highway to

tomorrow. It’s a highway to yesterday.”Read more about rural broadband athttp://farmandfoodfile.com/in-the-news.

We country folk know. Our internetservice — despite being seen by everygovernment in the world as essential tomodern life as electricity and the tele-phone — is five-, 10-, even 15-timesslower than that of our in-town cousins,friends and colleagues.

Few folks outside of here, however, care.The reason is simple. No one — espe-

cially broadband internet companies — isrequired to care, Casaperalta said, because the Fed-eral Communications Commission, the governmentagency that oversees public airwaves, never declaredinternet service a “Title II” common carrier, essen-tially a public utility like electricity and telephoneservice.

As such, internet providers go where the dough

GUEBERT, from pg. 2rises, populated areas that yield thegreatest return on per-mile invest-ment. And that’s not rural America.

Moreover, internet providers havefended off any FCC hint to makeinternet service a Title II carrier. Thatmean Big Broadband won’t be comingto the country anytime soon because,without that declaration, they don’thave to.

Rural residents pay a steep price forthat forget-you business model.

For example, “more and more of localeducation is online, today,” Casaper-alta said, “practice tests, school sched-ules, teacher contact, even daily les-sons arrive through the internet. If

rural America continuesto have poor or slowinternet service it willcontinue to lose ground to everyoneeverywhere in education.”

The Title II question resurfaced inlate-April when FCC ChairmanThomas Wheeler proposed rules thatwould allow broadband internetproviders like Verizon and AT&T tocharge content providers — such asinternet movie streaming mogul Netflix— a higher price for faster deliveryspeeds.

The very idea of creating “fast lanes”and “slow lanes” through price infuri-ated most high-tech companies, includ-ing Netflix. Most see the internet as a

“neutral” business, infor-mation and entertainment

platform where every useris equal to every other user regardlessof how either uses it.

So why would the FCC chair openthis fast lane/slow lane Pandora’s Box?

Some say it’s in response to Big Broad-band’s renewed lobbying against anynew consideration of Title II status forthe internet, an ever-present pressure.

Wheeler, market watchers say, maybe attempting to finally address it bysearching for a middle ground where’net neutrality advocates like Googleand “fast lane” backers like Verizon canco-exist under today’s light governmentregulation without splitting the ’netinto big-money fast lanes and poor-service slow lanes.

Rural America needs to get into that

fight, Casaperalta said.“Everyone’s future will be tied to the

internet,” she said. “Rural or urban, theinternet is where you go to apply forjobs, attend class, buy plane tickets,talk with family, start a business, getthe news.

“That makes it absolutely imperativethat we get better broadband service —Title II-type service — to rural areas,”she continues, “before we even talkabout fast lanes and slow lanes.”

In short, let’s at least fix the internetin rural America before we startdreaming up ways to break it.

It’s been nearly 21 yearsand I can still picture thewater fountain where shewent missing.

It was our family’s firstouting since Melanie wasborn. She was a coupleweeks old; her sisters Eliza-beth and Stephanie were 6and 4, respectively.

The girls were giddy.What child isn’t over acounty fair? Carnival rides,cotton candy, animals andmore. Thing is, we didn’t see any ofthose things this trip. We spent moretime in the fair parking lot unbucklingchildren, re-buckling sandals, settingup the stroller and arranging the dia-per bag than we had time within thegates and our first pit stop.

Stephanie needed a drink. Not sureif she was actually parched or if it sim-ply looked liked a cool fountain, butshe wanted a drink. While she sippedwe scanned the grounds to determinewhere we should go first. One secondshe was there, the next one she wasmissing.

It is a parent’s nightmare. Mike

raced to the fair headquar-ters to have it announcedvia the loud speaker thatthere was a missing child. Imade circles around thewater fountain with thestroller gripped in one handand Elizabeth’s small palmin the other. And weprayed.

After alerting the fair per-sonnel, Mike sprinted to theentrance gate. At the timethere were stories of a

creeper in a van who trailed children.When the first vehicle he saw at thegate was a van, there was no politeprotocol. He whipped open its sidedoor like a federal agent and cameface to face with the family he had justterrorized. With a quick, “Sorry!” heslammed the door shut and ran to thenext gate. And we prayed.

Within a timespan that was shorterthan it seemed, Stephanie was trans-ported to the fair headquarters on theshoulders of a gentle grandpa. Heheard the announcement and from thelooks of the scared little girl withinarm’s reach, he figured she had to bethe one. He hoisted her high so we’d

see her sooner rather than later, andthe reunion was sweet.

I don’t know his name, but I’m for-ever grateful. Together again, Mikeasked, “Do you want to stay?”

“I want to go home,” I said. The girlsdid, too. We were never so happy totuck them safely in bed, as we werethat night.

Not all missing children’s reportsend happily ever after. Not all missingchildren have someone who caresenough to hoist them to his shouldersand do whatever it takes to bringthem safely home.

As I write there are 276 missinggirls who were kidnapped from aboarding school in Nigeria. The kid-nappers plans are to sell these deargirls for about $12 each to potential“husbands.”

Praise God, governments and peoplearound the world have taken noticethis time. #Bringbackourgirls is therally cry. And as some nations joinours in the search, we pray.

But what about all the children —especially the girls — who go missingwithout anyone’s notice? What aboutthe ones in other parts of Africa, Asia,

South and Central America, and evenon the soil we call home? There aremore in need. So many more!

In their book “Half the Sky: TurningOppression into Opportunity forWomen Worldwide,” Nicholas D.Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn write,“more girls were killed in the last 50years — precisely because they weregirls — than men killed in all thewars in the 20th century.”

Ann Voskamp writes, “does anyonesee the girls, care about the girls, dowhatever it takes to bring the girlsback to hope?”

There are some. But more areneeded. So many more!

But what do we do? There is noquick-fix to this worldwide epidemicof injustice.

What I know is what we experi-enced firsthand. When you reallyvalue and care for the one who is lost,you’ll do whatever it takes for as longit takes to bring her home. And wepray.

Clematis are often calledthe queen of all vines.

That description suits thismember of the Ranuncu-lacea botanical family. Iwould love to have more ofthe several hundred vari-eties available but somerestraint must be shown inthis hobby of gardening.Larry and I grow eight cul-tivars of clematis and twoare heirloom varieties thatrank high on our list offavorites.

Henryi is one of the finest purewhites with blooms 6 to 8 inchesacross and coffee colored anthers. Itsheaviest flush of flowering is early inthe season with smaller displays ofbloom throughout the summer. If youhave an all white garden or want aplant for evening interest, Henryi isunequaled. The pure white flowerssparkle and glow at dusk and in moonlight.

Nelly Moser is a trusted heirloomvariety that displays pink petals setoff by darker bars. The blooms arehuge and the flowers prolific. The seedpods are exotic looking whorls, and

provide added interest afterthe plant has finished blooming. NellyMoser and other pastel colored vari-eties keep their color best whenplanted where they get some afternoonshade.

Plant these vines in early spring.Soak the root balls for 20 minutes. Diga hole at least 18 inches deep and 18inches wide and work some compostinto it. Set the plant so at least two leafnodes are below the soil level andwater well.

All clematis like their heads in thesun and their feet in the shade. A good3-inch layer of mulch or a ground coverwill keep their feet shaded. It will takeabout two years for the plants tobecome established and produce large

flower displays.

Pruning clematis sounds complicated;however, there are only three bloomtimes that affect pruning.

• Early flowering varieties don’t needany pruning except removal of deadmaterial.

• Mid-summer bloomers can bepruned to a desired shape when dor-mant.

• Late-flowering species can bepruned to 4 to 6 inches from theground in early spring. A garden diaryindicating when the plant was pur-chased and its care works well to keeppruning information available fromyear to year. In our climate MotherNature sometimes does all the pruning

for us and we only need to remove thedead areas of plant material.

Some say Klem-uh-tiss and some sayClem-at-tis. Klem-uh-tiss is consideredthe correct pronunciation. I think it isnever wise or necessary to correct any-one when talking about names ofplants — we gardeners all know whatplants we are describing and some-times the names are not pronouncedlike they would sound phonetically.

If you are not sure of the pronuncia-tion, say your version with conviction.All but the most serious minded plantpeople will likely think you are sayingthe name correctly.

Our gardening season is off to a latestart this spring and once again thereare too many tasks to accomplish in tooshort of a time. I did manage to checkand trim all the clematis vines.

Nothing pleases the eye as much asone of these beautiful climbers in fullbloom, reaching 10 feet or more on atrellis, meandering over a fence orclimbing an old stump.

“Most memories are made whenpeople are gathered together enjoyinggreat food.”

It’s a simple sentence that sums upthe essence of “Serve the Lord WithGladness,” a collection of 600 recipesfrom Holy Cross Lutheran Church ofPrior Lake, Minn., in honor of their25th anniversary this June. ServingGod and serving food just seem to gotogether, strengthening faith and creat-ing lifelong memories at the same time.

This cookbook contains too manyrecipes I wanted to share, so I had topare them down to these few — a diffi-cult choice indeed. It’s one of the bestchurch cookbooks I’ve seen, with recipesthat are decidedly not run-of-the-mill.

Apples in your cole slaw? Sure, whynot! This part-fruit/part-veggie slawis sweet and tangy, and it’ll be greatthis summer for all your grilling,camping and partying needs. You canmake it in advance; just add thecrushed peanuts at the last minute.Apple Sour Cream SlawSubmitted by Joanne Naas and Pamela Hunter

Dressing1 cup sour cream2 tablespoons lemon juice2 tablespoons cider vinegar2 tablespoons sugar1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper1 teaspoon dry mustardCombine all ingredients and beat

until smooth. Set aside.Slaw1 cup celery, sliced2 cups cabbage, shredded1 cup carrot, shredded2 large apples, cored and cut into

bite-size pieces1/3 cup raisins1/3 cup salted peanuts, choppedAdd everything except peanuts to

dressing mixture. Toss to mix. Refriger-ate. Mix in peanuts just before serving.

If you’re tired of the same old beefand chicken on the grill, do your stom-ach a favor and grill up some fish. This

recipe calls for halibutnot only because it’sdelicious but because it’sa firm, meaty fish thatwon’t fall off the skewer.Grilled Halibut KabobsSubmitted by Lori Siedelman

1/2 cup olive oil1/4 cup orange juice1 tablespoon balsamic

vinegar1 garlic clove, minced1 tablespoon each

fresh rosemary andfresh thyme, chopped

1/2 teaspoon salt12 ounces halibut, skinned, cut into

2-inch cubes2 small red potatoes1 small yellow squash, cut into 1/2-

inch slices2 Roma tomatoes, cut into thick

chunks6 white button mushrooms1 green pepper, cut into chunks2 lemons, cut into thick wedgesCombine olive oil, orange juice, bal-

samic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, thymeand salt in glass measuring cup. Tosshalibut with three-fourths of marinade.Refrigerate and marinate for at leasthalf hour and up to 1 hour. Set thereserved marinade aside. Parboil thepotatoes in lightly salted water untilalmost tender. Drain and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Toss with a little of the extramarinade and set aside. Toss squash,tomatoes, mushrooms and green pepperin a large bowl with the remainingmarinade. Heat grill. Thread skewers,alternating the halibut, vegetables andlemon wedges. Reserve some lemonwedges for garnish. Grill over medium-hot heat for 4-5 minutes per side. Servegarnished with remaining lemonwedges. Serves 2-3.

A yearly survey of beekeepers,released May 15, shows fewer colonylosses occurred in the United Statesover the winter of 2013-14 than inrecent years, but beekeepers saylosses remain higher than the levelthat they consider to be sustainable.

According to survey results, totallosses of managed honey bee coloniesfrom all causes were 23.2 percentnationwide. That number is above the18.9 percent level of loss that bee-

keepers say is acceptable for their eco-nomic sustainability, but is a markedimprovement over the 30.5 percentloss reported for the winter of 2012-13,and over the eight-year average loss of29.6 percent.

More than three-fourths of theworld’s flowering plants rely on polli-nators, such as bees, to reproduce,meaning pollinators help produce oneout of every three bites of food Ameri-cans eat.

“Pollinators, such as bees, birds andother insects are essential partners forfarmers and ranchers and helpproduce much of our food sup-ply. Healthy pollinator popu-lations are critical to the con-tinued economicwell-being of agriculturalproducers,” said U.S.Department of Agricul-ture Secretary Tom Vil-sack. “While we’re glad to seeimprovement this year, lossesare still too high and there isstill much more work to be doneto stabilize bee populations.”

There is no way to tell why the beesdid better this year, according to bothJeff Pettis and Dennis vanEngelsdorp.

Pettis is a research leader of theAgricultural Research Service Bee

Research Laboratory inBeltsville, Md. ARS is theUSDA’s chief intramural sci-entific research agency.

VanEngelsdorp is a Uni-versity of Marylandassistant professor whois the leader of the sur-vey and director of the

Bee Informed Partnership.Although the survey, con-

ducted by the USDA and theUniversity of Maryland Bee

Informed Partnership shows improve-ment, losses remain above the level

By KRISTIN KVENOThe Land CorrespondentThe ThronsonsGary, Minn.

For Jared Thronsonplanting is finallyunderway.

The number ofacres planted so farmay not be impres-sive but at least it’s astart to getting thecrops in the ground. The Land spokewith Thronson May 13 as he was wait-ing out the rain and anxious to getback in the field. “Only got 35 acresplanted,” he said. He was happy toreport, however, that he had no planterissues and planting went well.

The forecast was for “sunny andwarmer” temperatures, just what thefields need to be ready. “Hopefully byFriday or Saturday we can do somemore planting,” Thronson said.

The delay in getting corn in theground has made him change to someearly corn varieties. He will be plant-ing mostly 75- to 80-day corn. This isthe first time Thronson has had tochange to earlier varieties due to lateplanting.

“The 25th of May is the crop insur-ance deadline (for corn),” Thronsonsaid. If the corn isn’t in the ground bythen, Thronson will switch to eithersoybeans or wheat. With 280 acres ofcorn to plant, he believes that with“two good days” the corn should all bein. His plan is for this dad, Lloyd, torun the planter during the day andThronson will take the nighttime shift— keeping the planter going 24 hoursa day until the crops are all in.

“Hopefully all the crops will beseeded in two weeks,” Thronson said.He believes that “shouldn’t be a prob-lem if we can get going by this week-end.”

Some people have big plans for Fri-day and Saturday nights; Thronson'sbig weekend plans include a planter, afield and, most importantly, no rain.

The WiltsesHerman, Minn.

In the past two weeks “we gotanother two-and-a-half days in thefield,” Dennis Wilts reported to The

Land on May 12.Though the field

conditions were“plenty wet when westarted, we got somecorn and sugar beetsin,” Wilts said. Withalmost three-quar-ters of an inch of rainsince May 7, he has-

n’t been able to get back in the field.The planting conditions so far this

season “haven’t been ideal but still alittle better than we thought it wouldbe,” Wilts said. With more rain and cooltemperatures expected for the nextcouple of days, “it just isn’t going towarm up.” When the weather doesturn around, he estimates that “in 10days we’d have it all done.”

Wilts said that they’ve had enoughmoisture; now they need sunshine andwarm weather.

“In another week if we don’t get thewheat in we’ll have to change toanother crop,” he said. “It’s gettingtime to get something done.” Theweather must not have heard thatspring should be here as Wiltsreported that there was “frost on theroof on Saturday.” This lack of heatisn’t welcome as the ground needs todry out and dry out fast.

Wilts hopes that things turn aroundand the crops will be in, the sun will beshining, and the frost will be a long-forgotten word around his farm.

The HoffmansNew Ulm, Minn.

Rain is back andplanting is on hold.

That about sums upthe planting progressfor Don Hoffman.When The Land spokewith Hoffman on May12, he reported that since May 7 thefarm had received three-and-a-halfinches of rain. With more moisture onthe way — “I think today and tomor-row it’s rain” — planting will have towait.

Hoffman was last in the field on May7 when they planted 50 acres of cornand 30 acres of beans. On that day the“ground conditions were excellent.”With 250 acres of corn left, he hopesthat he needs just “two good days” toget planting done.

Hoffman can’t be picky at this pointin the season and will begin to plantaround wet spots in the fields.

“I would’ve liked to have had all thecorn in,” he said. With the amount ofmoisture that fell, planting delayswere imminent. If Hoffman isn’t ableto get the crop in another week to 10days, “I’d be concerned.”

On the dairy side everything is going“very steady, very stable. The way welike it,” he said. But that doesn’t meanthere isn’t work to be done while wait-ing to plant. Hoffman will be “getting

the haybine out this weekend for thefirst crop of hay.”

He is also working on trimmingtrees along the field and getting somerepair jobs finished on the farm.

“We need this moisture, the timingis terrible,” he said. Hoffman doespoint out that this moisture couldbecome valuable to the crop this Julyand August.

The HagensLake Mills, Iowa

“It’s just cold andwet.” Not exactlyperfect planting con-ditions for JimHagen, but he hopesthat’s about tochange.

When The Land spoke with Hagenon May 14 he found the fields to stillbe wet from “another two inches ofrain last weekend.” The corn plantingfinished last week for Hagen. He waspleased that he had “good conditions”for getting the corn in the ground.

While he’s waiting for the fields todry up before starting to plant soy-beans, Hagen has been busy haulingcorn to the ethanol plant. He’s alsoworking on getting the sprayer readyto go as he’ll be putting down pre-emergent herbicide for the soybeans.

Hagen estimates that he just “needsfour good days” to get the beans in theground. He’s not panicking yet aboutnot having the beans in, but if they’renot in by the end of the month it willbe a different story. The ground “justhas to dry up,” he said.

“There’s no drought here,” saidHagen. “The tiles are all running.” Hecredits the drain tiles for the reasonthat he’s done with planting corn andfeels the “tiling is proving its worth.”According to Hagen, only half the cornis planted around the area.

Hagen doesn’t expect to be in thefield for at least two more days. He islooking forward to getting back in theplanter and utilizing his new “rowshut-off system; that means no over-lapping, hopefully,” Hagen said.

No planting overlaps, sunny skiesand warm weather all sound likeingredients for some great soybeanplanting conditions. ❖

SURVEY, from pg. 10that beekeepers consider to be econom-ically sustainable. This year, almosttwo-thirds of the beekeepers respond-ing reported losses greater than the18.9 percent threshold.

“Yearly fluctuations in the rate oflosses like these only demonstrate howcomplicated the whole issue of honeybee heath has become, with factors suchas viruses and other pathogens, para-sites like varroa mites, problems ofnutrition from lack of diversity in pollensources, and even sub-lethal effects ofpesticides combining to weaken and killbee colonies,” Pettis said.

The winter losses survey covers theperiod from October 2013 throughApril. About 7,200 beekeepersresponded to the voluntary survey.

A complete analysis of the bee surveydata will be published later this year.The summary of the analysis is athttp://goo.gl/Ywzx4s.

The USDA also announced that itwill hold a summit this fall aimed ataddressing the nutrition and forageneeds of pollinators. The summit willtake place in Washington, D.C., Oct. 20-21 and will be attended by a consor-tium of public, private and non-govern-

mental organizations. Attendees willdiscuss the most recent researchrelated to pollinator loss and work toidentify solutions.

Additionally, the USDA launched thePeople’s Garden Apiary bee cam at theUSDA headquarters in Washington,D.C., as an additional effort to increasepublic awareness about the reductionof bee populations and to inform Amer-icans about actions they can take tosupport the recovery of pollinator pop-ulations. The USDA “Bee Watch” web-site — www.usda.gov/beewatch — willbroadcast honey bee hive activity liveover the internet 24 hours per day,seven days per week. Created in 2010,the People’s Garden Apiary is home totwo bee hives. The bees are Italianqueens, the most common bee stockand the same used in many honey beecolonies throughout the United States.

In March, Vilsack created a Pollina-tor Working Group, under the leader-ship of Deputy Secretary KrystaHarden, to better coordinate efforts,leverage resources and increase focuson pollinator issues across USDA agen-cies. USDA personnel from 10 depart-ment agencies (Agricultural ResearchService, National Institute of Food and

SURVEY, from pg. 12Agriculture, Farm Services Agency, NaturalResources Conservation Service, Animal and PlantHealth Inspection Service, Economic Research Ser-vice, Forest Service, Agricultural Marketing Service,Risk Management Agency and Rural Development)meet regularly to coordinate and evaluate efforts asthe USDA strives toward improving pollinator healthand ensuring our pollinators continuing contribu-tions to our nation’s environment and food security.

Earlier this year, the USDA made $3 million avail-able to help agriculture producers in five states(North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsinand Michigan) provide floral forage habitats to bene-fit pollinating species on working lands. The HoneyBee Pollinator Effort is intended to encourage farm-ers and ranchers to grow alfalfa, clover and otherflowering habitat for bees and other pollinators.

The president’s fiscal year 2015 budget proposalprovides $71 million for pollinator health activitiesthrough multiple USDA agencies. This includes anincrease of $40 million in combined mandatory anddiscretionary funds to advance efforts, in consultationwith the Environmental Protection Agency and otherfederal partners, to respond to the decline in honeybee health and ensure their recovery.

This coordinated effort is focused on targeted researchthat addresses multifactorial stressors, their interac-tion, and identification and implementation of measuresto improve and increase habitat available to pollinatorson federal and private lands. In addition, this initiativewill help prevent introductions of invasive bees, bee dis-eases and parasites; document the status of honey beehealth factors associated with bee losses and honey beeproduction; and work with stakeholders on best man-agement practices. A coordinated communication strat-egy, including outreach and education, will engage thepublic to help solve this important challenge. ❖

By DICK HAGENThe Land Staff Writer

Declining bee populations are a growingconcern everywhere.

Why? Because honey bees are the unpaidtransporters of pollen, that miraculous stuffthat generates new growth of innumerableplant species.

Honey on your morning toast wouldn’t be areality without the tenacious buzzing of liter-ally millions of honey bees across our prairielandscape — especially if the right mixture of cloversand flowering gardens are part of that landscape.

But what if there simply aren’t enough of thesefood sources?

Improving the habitat for pollinator bees startsright outside your front porch. “When you plantflowers each spring, plant flowers that the bees willlike,” suggested Carmelita Nelson, MinnesotaDepartment of Natural Resources Prairie Grass-land coordinator.

She said that native bees are especially attractedto native flowers. Your local greenhouse, even yourfavorite hardware store, can be a good source ofboth seeds and suggestions.

A good source for bee-attractive flowers is theUniversity of Minnesota’s Bee Lab — online atwww.beelab.umn.edu — or the Minnesota DNR, atwww.mndnr.gov.

As you might expect honey production varies fromhive to hive and from year to year. Bee keepers talkin terms of 75 to 100 pounds of honey per hive,which takes a hive of 50,000 to 65,000 bees duringpeak summer. One queen bee is the boss and runsthe show.

Perhaps surprising is the fact that Minnesota is

the home to more than 300species of bees. “Right nowbumble bees are a big con-cern,” Nelson said, indicatingseveral species of bumble bees arenow in that “endangered species”category.

Bumble bees are excellent pollinators— “the vibration of their wings helps them pollinatetomatoes and other vegetables even better thanhoney bees,” Nelson said.

Pollinators — wild insects and domesticated honeybees — help 70 percent of the world’s wild and culti-vated flowering plants to reproduce. Every third biteof our food is a result, directory or indirectly, of aninsect transporting pollen. Pollinators have beencalled a “keystone group that other organisms relyon.”

That keystone group is on the decline.Aerial spraying of Minnesota crops is one of the

likely culprits, Nelson said, but with honey bees amultitude of things are happening. Road ditch mow-ing of wild flowers and parasitic mites, for example,are becoming an issue.

Time will tell if 2013-14’s harsh winter was detri-mental to the bee populace. Nelson said bees can

keep warm enough with their vibration, butsome additional supplemental feeding was agood idea this winter.

She also said that organic farming is agreat enhancement to the Minnesota beepopulation. “Organic farming not only bene-fits bees but also birds and other wildlife. I’vetalked to many organic farmers who tell meabout all the birds singing in their yards.”

Other suggestions for rebuilding bee popu-lations: Towns with unused park/recreation

space can plant native prairie, with an empha-sis on wild flowers in that space. Volunteer gar-deners and Master Gardeners can work up soil

in certain park/recreation areas and maintainbutterfly, hummingbird and bee gardens.

Nesting habitat can be improved for all species ofbees. Even a small planting of native prairie is astart. Some bees like to burrow into the ground fortheir nesting sites.

“If we leave a few areas bare and open, these beesmight burrow down into the soil there,” said JonWogen, an Olivia, Minn.-area wildlife-outdoorwriter. “Old stumps and brush and wood piles aregood nesting places, as native bees may use cracks orworm holes in the wood for nesting burrows.”

Wogen said artificial nesting stations can be builtfor several species, especially orchard bees, whichsometimes are called mason bees or leaf-cuttingbees. Many of the native species of bees are friendlyand non-aggressive; they won’t bother people unlessthey are grabbed or squeezed.

Education and research may be the key to keepingpollinators in good numbers so they can do their joband provide us with fruit and vegetable crops thatfeed and nourish us, Wogen said. ❖

Wildlife-outdoor writer Jon Wogen offers tips onhow to build a “bee box.” (See his photos at right.)

Most native bees like a six-inch deep hole drilledinto a log or four-by-six post. One can screw two-by-fours together. The holes should go all the waythrough as it will be mounted on a two-by-fourpost so it will close the back ends of the holes.

This facilitates cleanout, which should occur everytwo years after the spring bees have hatched out. Thebox can be removed from the two-by-four back, andthe holes can be cleaned out.

In case you don’t want to miss any bees comingto lay eggs in the brooder house, you should haveanother house on hand to replace the one you arecleaning. A brush or drill can clean out the house.This prevents disease of the young bees growingin the house.

It is best to use pine or fir, and not treated wood.An example house made of two-by-fours can be a

foot tall and have about 24 holes drilled. Each holeis five-sixteenths-inch in diameter. A roof can beput on the house to provide shade and to preventrain from coming into the holes. The bees like thenest box to face the morning sun.

GRANT, Minn. (AP) — In Jerry Linser’s apiary rehabclinic, he holds one of his clients between his fingers.

“I know where you’ve been,” murmurs Linser to a hon-eybee, as he gently lifts it to the bee screen around hisface. “You have a honey-tummy full of stuff, I can see it.”

Linser was tending to one of the 150,000 residentsof his Bee Ranch in Grant, checking to see how theysurvived the harsh winter. In an effort to reversedeclines in bee populations, Linser is among thehundreds of Minnesotans who have jumped ontothe beekeeping bandwagon.

One sign of the buzz around beekeeping is the suc-cess of the Stillwater Honey Bee Club, which hasjumped from four members to 160 in 14 months.

The University of Minnesota Extension Servicehas seen an increase in beekeeping interest, and BobSitko, who teaches at Century College, said his bee-keeping classes are “overflowing.” Their mission:saving mankind’s best friend in the insect world.

In the past, Linser said, about 10 to 15 percent ofbee hives in the United States died over the winter.In the past several years, the die-off has soared to 40to 80 percent.

Why all the buzz kill?Bee mites, pesticides and lack of food are three big

reasons.

WHISPERER, from pg. 18The mites, tiny parasites that

attack bees, are widespread.“It’s the wood tick of honey-bees,” Linser told the St.Paul Pioneer Press. (Seehttp://bit.ly/1nH2U8a)

Common pesticides aresuspect, including neonicoti-noids. These are among themost popular insecticides in theworld, spread widely on commoditycrops and available in garden centers.

Linser said the neonicotinoidsappear in pollen, where bees can pickit up and take it back to their hives.

Bees’ food sources are disappearing.Bees depend on nectar from flowers, butas suburbia sprawls into natural areas,another source of pollen vanishes.

A neatly mowed lawn? “That is like theSahara Desert to a honeybee,”Linser said.

The so-called bee-pocalypse is alarm-ing because bees are natural garden-ers. As they fly from flower to flower,they transfer pollen — which fertilizesplants and allows them to reproduce.

“Without bees, there would be nomelons, no berries, no nuts,” said Sitko,one of the founders of the Stillwater

club. Bees are responsible, hesaid, for about a third of theworld’s food production.

Bees are so valuable thatthey have become immi-grant farm workers.Roughly half of the nation’s

domesticated bees are annu-ally trucked into California,where they are essential to fer-tilize the state’s almond crop.

Recently, Linser suited up forhis chores, donning a white bee smock,complete with a built-in zip-up helmet.

He loaded some green grass into hissmoker, which is like a coffee can witha bellows to fan the flames inside.

Carrying a bucket of tools, heentered the bee pen, about the size of adouble garage. He passed through theelectric fence, which keeps bears andother critters away.

With the steady monotone buzz ofthousands of bees in his ears, he beganto check each of the 19 hives. Healready had ordered 18,000 replace-ment bees, about six pounds of insects,to make up for the bees lost over thewinter. The box, sent from California,included tinier boxes, like thrones, forthe queens.

By each hive, Linser squirted a fewpuffs of smoke to calm the bees. He notedwith satisfaction that one experiment hadworked — a hive he insulated last fallsurvived the winter with few casualties.

Speaking from inside the bee helmet,heexplained that he is doing genetic engi-neering of his own. He picks out whichbees to breed, looking for bees that aredisease-free, docile, tough enough to sur-vive winter and good honey producers.

At one hive, Linser suddenly stoodup straight. “Oooh,” he said. He heldup an index finger with a bee hanging

on, stinging him. The finger swelledup like a bratwurst.

Other people might have reacted by,say, putting on gloves. But not Linser.

His relationship with bees is notjust about business. Even with aswollen finger, he continued to pickthem up and feel them wiggling —almost affectionately. He wanted toencourage them, feed them, comfortthem and talk to them.

He tenderly held up a small workerbee. “Why, just look at you,” he saidproudly, “all covered with pollen.” ❖

This column was writtenfor the marketing week ending May 16.

The U.S. Department ofAgriculture did not changeits 2014 milk production esti-mate in its latest World Agri-cultural Supply and DemandEstimates report, but seeshigher output in 2015, stat-ing that lower feed costs andstrong milk prices areexpected to support bothherd expansion andgains in milk per cow.

Fat-basis exports were forecastlower on increased competition fromtraditional exporters, primarily in but-terfat markets. Continued strength innonfat dry milk will help limitdeclines in skim-solids exports.

Fat-basis import forecasts wereexpected to be about the same as 2014but skim-solids imports will be lower.With higher domestic production, cheese,

butter, NDM and whey pricesare forecast lower.

Milk production for 2014was unchanged from lastmonth’s estimate, at 206.1billion pounds, up from201.2 billion in 2013 and200.5 billion in 2012. Lookfor 2015 output to hit 212.1billion pounds.

Fat basis imports for 2015are forecast lower while

skim solids importswere higher. Exportswere raised on stronger

sales of NDM, butterfat and cheese.Butter and whey prices were raisedfrom last month while NDM is lower.Cheese was unchanged but the rangewas narrowed. With higher domesticproduction, cheese, butter, NDM andwhey prices are forecast lower for 2015.

The 2014 Class III milk price forecastwas raised on higher whey prices andis expected to average $20.70 per hun-

dredweight, up a nickel from lastmonth’s estimate, and compares to$17.99 in 2013 and $17.44 in 2012. The2015 average is at $17.40.

The 2014 Class IV price was raised ashigher prices for butter more than offsetreduced prices for NDM. It’s predicted toaverage $21.45, up a dime from lastmonth’s estimate, and compares to$19.05 in 2013 and $16.01 in 2012. Lookfor it to average $19.10 in 2015.

■

As it always does, the USDA’smonthly Livestock, Dairy and PoultryOutlook mirrored dairy projections con-tained in the WASDE report but theOutlook stated that “lower feed priceswill improve the profit outlook for pro-ducers next year. Continued strongdemand, both foreign and domestic,will moderate price declines in 2015.”

Feed prices are likely to remain moder-ate compared with recent years for thebalance of 2013-14 and into 2014-15.

Corn prices for 2013-14 are raised inMay from April and forecast at $4.50 to$4.80 per bushel; the price range wasnarrowed at the lower end, boostingthe mid-point by 5 cents. Initial fore-casts for the 2014-15 year call for cornprices to decline to $3.85 to $4.55/bu.Current-year soybean meal price esti-mates are raised slightly from April to$485 per ton.

The initial 2014-15 soybean mealprice forecast is much lower, at $355 to$395/ton. The forecast is based onhigher soybean plantings and yields.April’s Agricultural Prices reportplaced April’s preliminary price foralfalfa hay at $206/ton, above March’s$191 price but below the April 2013price of $213/ton.

■

April’s Milk Production report showsthe January-to-March U.S. milk pro-duction at 51.1 billion pounds, up 1percent from the corresponding periodlast year.

Cow numbers are forecast at 9.255million head for 2014, unchanged fromApril and only slightly higher than2013 levels. Forecast cow numbers for2015 are for 9.34 million head. Pricesfor dairy replacements are ahead ofyear-earlier prices, and first-quarterdairy cow slaughter trails last year.This is a modest expansion in light ofthe strong profit signals to producers.

Current-year output per cow alsoremains unchanged in May from Aprilat 22,280 pounds per cow. Output percow is projected at 22,710 pounds in2015. Continued month-over-month

declines in Midwestern milk output aremoderated by higher milk output inthe West. Increased output per cowreflects both improved producerreturns and improved forage condi-tions, especially in the Midwest, afterlast year’s poor-quality harvest.

■

The California Department of Foodand Agriculture announced its JuneClass I milk price at $25.10/cwt. for thenorth and $25.37 for the south. Both aredown 78 cents from May but are $4.26and $4.25, respectively, above June2013. The six-month average nowstands at $24.53 for the north, up from$19.85 at this time a year ago, $17.83 in2012, and $19.42 in 2011. The southernaverage is $24.80, up from $20.13 a yearago, $18.10 in 2012, and $19.69 in 2011.

The June federal order Class I baseprice will be announced by the USDAon May 21.

■

Milk prices will be coming down ascash cheese saw a fourth week ofdecline. The Cheddar blocks dippedbelow $2 per pound this week for thefirst time since Dec. 19, 2013, and Jan.6 on the barrels.

The blocks closed May 16 at$1.9975/lb., down 4.75 cents on theweek and down 43.5 cents from itsrecord peak in March, but still 22.75cents above a year ago.

The barrels finished at $1.96, down 6cents on the week, 41.75 cents below itsrecord peak, and 20 cents above a yearago. Only one car of each traded handson the week. The National Dairy Prod-ucts Sales Report-surveyed U.S. aver-age block price slipped to $2.2125/lb.,down 3.4 cents, while the barrels aver-aged $2.2299, down 2.6 cents.

Cheese production across the UnitedStates is mixed, according to theUSDA’s Dairy Market News. Someareas that are at or just past peak milkproduction are experiencing mostlysteady production. Midwest cheese out-put is mostly steady as spring milkincreases are slow to develop. Cheeseproduction in the Northeast and North-west is steady to increasing as milkvolumes improve. Demand varies withsome buyers in a “wait-and-see”approach, while others are increasingorders. Recent lower wholesale pricesare helping to restimulate interest.

For the second year in a rowsome farmers in portions ofMinnesota and Iowa are deal-ing with wet field conditionsand delayed crop planting.

Unless conditions improvesoon, some producers couldbe forced to consider notplanting a portion of theircrops in 2014. As weapproach June 1, producersin the affected areas willbe evaluating their cropinsurance options forlate-planting or pre-vented-planting coverage.

The final planting date for corn in thesouthern two-thirds of Minnesota, aswell as in all of Iowa and Wisconsin, isMay 31, in order to receive full cropinsurance coverage for 2014. The late-planting period for corn is June 1-25,with a reduction in the insurance cover-age level of 1 percent for each day thatcorn planting is delayed past May 31.

In northern Minnesota, the final date forcorn planting with full insurance coverageis May 25. For soybeans, the final planting

date is June 10 in Minnesotaand the northern two-thirds ofWisconsin, and June 15 inIowa and the southern one-third of Wisconsin, with thefinal planting date extendingfor 25 days until July 5 in Min-nesota and northern Wiscon-sin, and until July 10 in Iowaand southern Wisconsin.

Once the final plantingdate for corn or soy-beans has been reachedfor corn or soybeans,

farmers can opt to takethe prevented planting insurance cov-erage, if they have that coverageoption, rather than planting the crop.

A large majority of producers in theUpper Midwest carry Revenue Protectioncrop insurance with prevented plantingcoverage on their corn and soybeans. Ifthey choose the prevented planting cover-age, they will receive 60 percent of theiroriginal crop insurance guarantee for thatcrop on a specific farm unit.

Every farm situation is different when itcomes to making a decision on whether to

utilize the prevented planting option, so itis important for producers to make individ-ualized decisions for each farm unit.

Crop producers will have different yieldpotential, crop expenses, land costs, etc., onvarious farm units, as well as differences intheir level of crop insurance coverage andrevenue guarantees on various farms.All

of these factors become important whenevaluating prevented-planting crop insur-ance decisions. It is also important to notethat the guaranteed payments for pre-vented planting with corn and soybeansare considerably less in 2014, as comparedto 2013, due to lower levels of crop insur-

PROGRAMS, from pg. 21ance base prices in 2014.Thedecision that your neighbormakes regarding prevented planting may not necessarilybe the best decision on your farm, depending on the situa-tion and the factors involved.

Producers should contact their crop insurance agentfor more details on final planting dates and preventedplanting options with various crop insurance policies,before making a final decision on prevented planting.The prevented-planted acres need to be reported to theircrop insurance agent.The U.S. Department of Agricul-ture Risk Management Agency has some good cropinsurance fact sheets available on their website,

www.rma.usda.gov/aboutrma/fields/mn_rso.Late, prevented planting crop insurance

optionsAssuming that producers have an eligible RP or Yield

Protection crop insurance policy, they would have the fol-lowing options with regards to delayed or prevented plant-ing later than the established final planting dates (May 31for corn and June 10 for soybeans in Minnesota).

• Plant the insured crop during the late plantingperiod, which is typically 25 days following theestablished final planting date for a given crop.

(Example:A final planting date of May 31 for cornwould result in a late-planting period from June 1-25.)

The crop insurance coverage is reduced by 1percent for each day after the final planting datefor the next 25 days. For crops planted after thefinal dates for the late planting period (June 25for corn), crop insurance coverage is set at amaximum of 60 percent of the original insur-ance guarantee, which is the same as the pre-vented-planting insurance coverage.

• Plant another crop (second crop) after thefinal planting date. For example, soybeans couldbe planted on intended corn acres after May 31.In that case, there would be no prevented-plant-ing coverage for the corn acres, and the soybeanswould be treated as insurable soybean acres. Ifthe soybeans are planted after the final plantingdate (June 10), they would be considered “LatePlanted”, with a 1 percent per day reduction inthe revenue guarantee for 25 days.

• File a prevented-planting crop insuranceclaim on the qualifying original unplanted acres,after May 31 for corn and June 10 for soybeans.

The producer will receive a prevented-plantingpayment per eligible acre equal to the originalrevenue guarantee times 60 percent.The original

revenue guarantee was the APH yield times the cropinsurance base price ($4.62/bu. for corn and $11.36/bu. forsoybeans) times the level of RP coverage level.

(Corn example: 190 bushels per acre x $4.62/bu. x 0.80= $702.24 x 0.60 = $421.34 prevent-plant amount)

(Soybean example: 52 bu./acre x $11.36/bu. x 0.80= $472.58 x 0.60 = $283.55 prevent-plant amount)

There is no Harvest Price option with preventedplanting insurance coverage, so even if the harvest priceis higher than the crop base price, the amount of theprevented-planting payment will not be increased. Pre-vented-planting payments are made on the base price.

A producer who files a prevented-planting insuranceclaim after the final planting date cannot plant anothercrop on those acres during the 25-day late-plantingperiod, or they will lose their prevented-planting insur-ance payment.After the late-planting period (June 25 forcorn and July 5 or 10 for soybeans), a producer has thefollowing options on those acres.• Leave the unplanted acres idle and controlthe weeds.• Plant an approved cover crop on the pre-vented-planted acres, with no reduction in the pre-vented-planting insurance payment. The cover cropcannot be harvested in 2014. Haying and grazing ofthose acres is permitted after Nov. 1.• Plant another crop (second crop) after the lateplanting period (June 25 for corn) has ended, withthe intent of harvesting that crop.

PROGRAMS, from pg. 23prevented-planting payment is reducedto 35 percent of the original preventedplanted payment.

(Example: $702.24/acre originalguarantee x 0.60 = $421.34/acre x 0.35= $147.47/acre adjusted prevent-plantpayment) This may be an option fordairy and beef producers who are shortof feed and hay supplies.Minimum acreage for preventedplanting

To qualify for prevented-plantinginsurance coverage and payments,affected areas must be the lower of 20acres or 20 percent of the total eligibleinsured acreage in a farm unit. Smallareas of land do not qualify for pre-vented-planting coverage, which couldbe a factor on some smaller land tractswith optional unit insurance coverage.

Meeting the 20-percent threshold willlikely be easier with enterprise unitsthan with optional units. However,there is lot of variation from farm-to-farm, so producers need to check withtheir crop insurance agent.

(Example: 500 acres ofcorn; 400 acres plantedwith full crop insurancecoverage; 100 acres (20 percent) pre-vented-planting paid at 60 percent of theoriginal insurance guarantee per acre.)Economics of the prevented-plant-ing decision

Every producer and every farm unithas a different situation as it relates tothe economics of the prevented-plantingcrop insurance decision. Refer to theattached table showing a comparison ofnormal corn production and returns, alate-planting scenario with reduced yieldsand crop insurance coverage, and a sce-nario using prevented-planting coverage.

Again, the situation for producers onindividual farm units may be differentthan this example.Additional prevented plantingcrop insurance considerations

• Prevented-planting notification.Crop insurance policy holders arerequired to notify their insuranceagent within 72 hours after the finalplanting date, if they plan to file a pre-vented-planting insurance claim. The

same 72-hour deadlineis in place during the

25-day late-plantingperiod, if a producer decides to discon-tinue planting, and proceed with a pre-vented-planting claim.

• Minimum planting with enterpriseunits. A producer filing a prevented-plant-ing claim, who originally signed up withenterprise units, must have planted thelower of 20 acres or 20 percent of theinsured crop acres in at least two sectionsto be eligible for the lower insurance pre-miums with enterprise units.

Otherwise, the farm unit will stillreceive the appropriate prevented-planting payment on that farm unit,but will be charged the insurance pre-miums for the higher of basic oroptional units. This would be the situa-tion if no acres were planted.

• Impact of prevented-planting on futureAPH yields. Generally, prevented-plantedacres will not impact the future APHyields, unless a second crop is planted, asonly the planted acres are used to deter-mine the crop year yield on a farm unit. If asecond crop is planted, the prevented-

planted acres will be assigned a yieldequal to 60 percent times the APH on thefarm unit. If no insured crop acres areplanted on a farm unit, that crop year willnot be considered in the future APH calcu-lation, unless a second crop was planted.Bottom line

Every producer’s situation is differentwhen it comes to late- and prevented-planting situations; as a result, the bestoption will vary considerably from farm-to-farm. In addition to differences in pro-duction practices and yield potential, thereare differences in level of insurance cover-age, optional or enterprise units, and othercrop insurance provisions.The choice thata producer makes could result in a differ-ence of thousands of dollars in the poten-tial insurance coverage that is available.That is why it is extremely critical for pro-ducers to consult with their crop insur-ance agent before finalizing late- and pre-vented-planting crop decisions.

Grain AnglesDon’t neglect your

bookkeepingFor some areas of Minnesota and Wisconsin, pro-

ducers are once again finding it challenging to getseed in the ground.

Spring is the favorite time of year for most produc-ers because it starts the cycle of growth and it bringshope of a bountiful crop. Usually, the production sideof agriculture is where the pro-ducer gets his pleasure, butequally important is the businessside of your farming operation,including your financial report-ing, bookkeeping, records and allof the other day-to-day tasksinvolved in running a business.

Most producers perform recordkeeping for two reasons: to have theproper information to file incometaxes, and to have the records fortheir lender so they can continue toget loans. Those are definitely goodreasons, but I challenge you to uti-lize those records to make your business better.

As producers grow their operations, they get biggerequipment, upgrade facilities and add necessarylabor. As lenders, we see the biggest hurdle for a pro-ducer’s growth is upgrading their record keeping tofit the size of their operation. As the size of yourcredit package grows your lender will require morecomplete and accurate records.

To ensure your records are where they need to be, youcan hire a firm to perform the record keeping duties orinvest in software that allows you to create a robustfinancial reporting system. It’s also important that youuse the accrual method of accounting, which provides anaccurate reflection of the current period of income andexpenses. The accrual method of accounting allows pro-ducers to understand their business’ level of profitabilityduring the year and eliminates any impact of actionsmade to manage taxes. This will also show the impact of

Grain OutlookMarket rolls as

planting catches upThe following market analysis is for the week ending May 16.CORN — The market rolled over this week as

corn planting caught up to the average, forecastsimproved, wheat prices crumbled and funds sold.

Demand is still supporting basis with producer sell-ing non-existent, export sales holding firm and process-ing margins in the black. Therewere no surprises from InformaEconomics updated acreage esti-mates this week. Plantingprogress caught up to the five-year average, coming in at 59 per-cent complete versus the 58 per-cent average. Minnesota was only31 percent done compared to the62 percent average; North Dakota3 percent versus 66 percent aver-age; South Dakota 52 percent ver-sus 43 percent average, Iowa atthe 70 percent average; Illinois 78percent versus 53 percent average;Indiana 61 percent versus 45 percent average; Wiscon-sin 20 percent versus 41 percent average.

Corn emergence was 18 percent compared to 25percent on average. The average planting pace forMay 18 is 76 percent complete and the average esti-mate is from 73 to 77 percent complete.

Overall, without compelling news to supportprices, the bears took control to press prices 24 centslower for the week in the July contract to close at$4.83 1/2 per bushel. July corn sliced through firstsupport of $4.97 1/2 and $4.90 late in the week, set-ting $4.80 1/4, then $4.68 1/4 as the next support.

The December contract suffered the same fate as oldcrop. It gapped lower from the opening bell to beginthe week on improved weather. Resistance in theDecember contract is the overhead gap from $4.96 1/2to $4.97 1/4 per bushel, but support doesn’t come into

Livestock AnglesCattle, hogs

fickle as of lateIt seems as if the livestock markets are fickle as of

late. Both the cattle and hog cash prices haveslumped recently, while the futures markets of bothhave either remained steady or have slightlyimproved. This indicates a lot of indecision on thefuture price of both cattle and hogs.

The cattle market has seen cashprices drift lower in recent days aspackers seem to be more discretein the accumulation of live inven-tory. The futures market, on theother hand, seems to be driven bythe smaller supply of animals andthe anticipation that prices mustrise because of that situation.

The interesting dilemma is thatdemand has been slowed due tothe higher prices at the retaillevel and in the export market.This has caused the movement ofbeef to slow, which is offsettingthe smaller supplies of cattle. It appears that eachtime the beef cutout reaches $235 per hundredweightor greater, demand for beef contracts — and as thecutout drops, the movement increases, but not to thelevels seen a year ago. This appears to be the culpritcausing the standoff in the cattle market which isholding prices in a distinct trading range.

On May 16, the U.S. Department of Agriculture releasedthe Monthly Cattle on Feed report the results are as fol-lows:On-feed,99 percent;placements,95 percent and mar-keted, 98 percent. The report was seen as neutral toslightly friendly since the placement number was less thanexpected. The key will still remain in the demand for beefsince the demand side of the equation is more elastic thanthe supply side.Therefore, producers should stay aware ofcurrent market conditions and protect inventories whenthe opportunity arises.

Hog prices have again have slipped during the past

NYSTROM, from pg. 26play until $4.71 to $4.60 per bushel.December corn closed at $4.81 perbushel, down 17 3/4 cents for the week.

Weekly export sales were withinexpectations at 13.5 million bushels forold crop and 1.8 million bushels for newcrop. This puts old crop sales commit-ments at 1.752 billion bushels com-pared to the U.S. Department of Agri-culture’s forecast for 1.9 billion bushels.

We need to average 12.4 millionbushels per week with 16 weeks left inthe marketing year. This is possible,but sales usually begin to taper lowerin the last quarter of the marketingyear. New crop sales commitments arerunning behind last year at this timewith 110.6 million bushels on the booksversus 144.2 million bushels last year.

China is expecting a record corn cropthis year of 222 million metric tons, up4.3 mmt from last year. Chinese importsare anticipated to shrink from 5.5 mmtin 2013-14 to 3.5 mmt in 2014-15. Chinaannounced they will auction 1.0 mmt ofstate-owned reserve corn on May 22.Their corn stocks at the end of the 2013-14 marketing year are forecasted to be46 percent of total world stocks.

Informa Economics is projectingplanted corn acres at 91.581 million acrescompared to last year’s 95.365 millionacres and a decline of 110,000 millionacres from the USDA’s March estimate.In May, the USDA used 91.7 million acreson the first 2014-15 balance sheet.

Minnesota’s corn acres are projectedat 8.5 million acres, down 100,000from the USDA’s March estimate andlast year’s figure. U.S. sorghum acresat 7.561 million are up 880,000 acresfrom the March USDA forecast.Informa’s total major crop acreage is2.9 million higher than last year due tolower prevented plantings and fewConservation Reserve Program acres.

OUTLOOK: Don’t be lulled into think-ing support levels are magical if weathercontinues to improve, and don’t get

caught without a plan inplace. If El Nino doesdevelop, it usually meansabove-average trend-line U.S. yields.

Corn struggled this past week, sendingus lower and setting the tone for themarket leading up to the June 30 GrainStocks and Planted Acreage reports fromthe USDA. Fund liquidation was appar-ent and there is still more to do. Unlessweather becomes a threat to the crop, itwill be difficult to sustain bounces.

SOYBEANS — Soybeans consoli-dated lower this week on essentiallythe same factors that dictated thedirection in corn.

Domestic demand for soybeans is firmand basis levels were stronger all week.Grower focus is on the planter, andwhat beans they have left to sell are intight hands. While bean imports are ontheir way to U.S. ports, export sales con-tinue to outpace what we need. Old cropexport sales this past week were 2.7million bushels, bringing total commit-ments to 1.643 billion bushels.

This remains above the USDA exportestimate of 1.6 billion bushels.We need toaverage a negative 200,000 bushels ofexport sales for the remainder of the cropyear, and this appears unlikely. New cropsales of 11.9 million bushels this weekbrings 2014-15 commitments to 298.2million bushels compared to 325.6 mil-lion on the books last year at this time.

China sold 92 percent of the 300,000mt of state-owned reserve 2010 soy-beans they offered to domestic usersthis week. Prices averaged higher thanthe minimum price suggesting demandmay be picking up in that region.

They had such success that they planto auction another 300,000 mt ofreserve beans on May 20.

The April National Oilseed ProcessorsAssociation crush figure of 132.67 millionbushels was right in line with expecta-tions and the highest April crush in fiveyears. Soybean crush is up 3 percent sofar this year versus last year. The

monthly crush needs toaverage just 109.4 millionbushels for the balance of

the crop year to not exceed the USDA’s1.695 billion bushel crush projection.Thiswould be the smallest crush for the May-to-August time period in 10 years. Thiskeeps pressure on the market to eitherreduce crush margins to discouragecrushing or keep the import pace strongenough to support a strong crush number.

Informa Economics’ new soybeanacreage forecast is 82.073 million acres,up 580,000 acres from the March USDA81.493 million acres estimate and com-pared with 76.5 million acres last year.On the May USDA crop report, 81.5 mil-lion planted acres was used on the first2014-15 balance sheet of the season.

Minnesota is estimated to plant 7.35million acres of beans this year, down50,000 acres from the USDA March num-ber and up 650,000 acres from last year.

Soybean planting as of May 11 was 20percent complete compared to 21 per-cent on average. By state versus the five-year average: Minnesota 4 percent ver-sus 23 percent average; North Dakotazero versus 10 percent; South Dakota 14percent versus 9 percent; Wisconsin 4percent versus 10 percent; Iowa 20 per-cent done versus 25 percent average; Illi-nois 26 percent versus 16 percent; Indi-ana 23 percent versus 22 percent.

The average planting pace for beansas of May 18 is 38 percent. The tradeis expecting planting to hit between35 to 39 percent complete.

OUTLOOK: Funds cut their netlength in soybeans this week, butprices were decidedly sideways andcontinued to trade within our fore-casted range. The market is still try-ing to balance imports headed to theUnited States versus strong demand.

There is also increasing talk about howmany bushels of early planted beans inthe southern United States will be avail-able to help bridge the gap between oldand new crop.The effect could be earlier-than-usual harvest pressure on fallprices. For now, a case can still be madefor firmer soy prices with the tight oldcrop balance sheet unresolved. However,the long-term picture suggests growingsupplies for next year.

July soybeans were down 22 centsthis week, closing at $14.65 per bushel.The July support remains at $14.41 3/4and resistance at $15.12 per bushel.November soybeans settled at $12.211/2 per bushel, down 4 3/4 cents for theweek. November beans are in a $12 to$12.50 per bushel range.

Bean market trying to balance imports, demand

TEALE, from pg. 26few weeks, reflecting the lack of demandfor pork at the higher prices. The porcineepidemic diarrhea virus is still a mainfactor in the trade’s mind and has domi-nated the futures market while the cashmarket is more in tune with the immedi-ate market conditions. Hog numbershave be more than adequate to meet thepackers’ kill needs and with weights highthe total pork production has remainedenough to meet current demand.

Considering that the PEDv is still amajor factor and that numbers arelikely smaller because of the death lossdue to the virus, a firming tone to pricesinto the summer months may not be outof the question. The only caveat to thatscenario would be if demand once againdecreases because of higher prices.Because of the large premiums in thefutures market, producers should takeadvantage of the wide basis and protectinventories when necessary. ❖

PEDv still a major factor

HUNEKE, from pg. 26capital draws,income taxes and capital sales.

If your expense statement is done prop-erly using the accrual method, yourincome and expense statement shouldmatch the gain or loss that would show onyour annual balance sheet. This is whatwe call reconciling. If you can produce areconciled profit-and-loss statement tothe balance sheet, your lender will feelcomfortable in your ability to understandyour complete financial picture.

This also gives you confidence toknow that your finances are in orderand you can rely on them to makesound decisions for the operation.

If your operation continues to grow,you may be asked for reviewed oraudited financial reports. So, youmight be wondering, what does thatreally mean? Many people think thattheir tax returns are reviewed by theiraccountant and that should be consid-ered reviewed, but that is not the case.

A reviewed financial report is done bya tax firm and is considered independ-ent. They must understand the entitythey are reviewing, review the account-

ing practices you are using to prepareyour financials and they also performanalytics on the operation. If you growto the size where an audit is required,all of the items done while reviewingyour financials is done as well asobserving your inventories (check yourbins to verify bushels), gaining anunderstanding of your internal controlsand an assessment of your fraud risks.An audit gives everyone the confidencein the information as it is verified.

So, are your records keeping pacewith your production? If your futureplans include growth and you want tobe prepared so investing in yourfinancial records is important. Makethe investment now and utilize theinformation to make good businessdecisions and allow your lender tohave confidence in the informationprovided, so they can grow with you.

Do you have a Back Roads story suggestion? E-mail [email protected] or write to Editor, The Land, P.O. Box 3169, Mankato, MN 56002.

This week’s Back Roads is the work of The Land Correspondents Tim King (story) and Jan King (photo)Umpah & the newsMy father-in-law said that if you don’t

listen to the local radio station youwon’t know when your neighbor’s

barn burns. He also said that his Holsteinswere calmed by old-time music. If you listento KEYL 1400 AM in Long Prairie you willhear local news and old-time music.

“We took the music off the air for a while butwe were swamped with letters asking us toput it back,” said Clif Cline, who has been themorning show host since 1998. “Older peopletell me that they wake up, turn the radio on,and lay in bed and listen to the accordions.”

Cline comes on the air at 5:30 a.m. with aweather report and the umpah of tubas.

“I learned in radio school that you talk tothe microphone like you’re talking to just oneperson,” he said. “You want to give them somenews and put a smile on their face.” From 6to 7, Cline links his show up with KEYL’s sis-ter FM station, KXDL. For an hour he broad-casts the farm news to the community as itstarts another day.

“I love what I do,” this self-proclaimed Mas-ter of the Bad Joke said. “I wouldn’t want todo it otherwise.

The bad jokes really start coming whenAllen Bailey joins Cline at 7:30. Bailey tellsCline that the news wires are carrying a storyabout a KFC restaurant refusing to serve ateenager because he wasn’t 18 years old.

“They said they were afraid he would start afood fight,” Bailey reports in absolute mock awe.

The KFC story turns into a 15-second dis-cussion about the carbon footprint of Amishhorse-drawn buggies on local roads, and thenClif reads the “Be Nice To” List.

The “Be Nice To” List consists of called-inbirthdays and wedding anniversaries. Theidea is that if your name is on it your friendswill remember and call you. It definitely puta smile on my father-in-law’s face.

Next come garage sales, funeral announce-ments, local news and sports, national newsand Open Mike. On Open Mike an elderlycouple can pitch their new health supple-ments or the superintendent of schools canrecap last night’s school board meeting.

This is truly local radio and Cline is proudto be a part of it.

“I want to keep doing this until I’m at least70,” he said. ❖
