MARKET GLANCE

By Rick Willis, The Scottsbluff Star-Herald

In today's global farming community, farmersare not only competing with neighbors and farm-ers in other states for buyers, but with farmersfrom around the globe.

How does a farmer in Box Butte compete orstack up, against farmers from the UnitedKingdom, Germany or even Russia?

Agriculture Economics Research Coordinator,University of Nebraska Panhandle Research andExtension Center's Paul Burgener, was invited toparticipate in a German-based scientific group,agri benchmark, which is leading the way indeveloping economies of ag production around theworld.

The group could help farmers in Nebraska learnnew ways to compete in the global market.

"Agri benchmarking basically standardizes thecosts of farming in like terms," Burgener said."Now we can see where there are higher costs andimpacts of policy analysis and the driving forces of

agriculture like: costs of fuel, land and labor."The process breaks down farm operations across

the world into bits of information that farmers canlook at to see where they can gain a competitiveedge.

"For instance, if we look at a Ukrainian farm, wesee annual land cost to produce wheat is $4 anacre. At this farm in the U.S. it's $25 an acre,"Burgener said. "I can look at co-parameters andsee were we can increase productivity; are we lowcost producers, second lowest; what are our oppor-tunities? Can we work on our prices versus therest of the world?"

Burgener's role in the process started last Aprilwhen he was visited by the German group andultimately invited to participate. His part is tocontribute the yearly information on a typical BoxButte County farm, which is irrigated by a centerpivot and can grow a crop rotation of beets, drybeans, corn and wheat.

Although the planting and growing season wasnot without its difficulties, 2009 was a record yearfor corn and soybean farmers.

Last week the USDA's National AgriculturalStatistics Service,Nebraska Field Officereported that corn forgrain production inNebraska based on year-end surveys is estimatedat 1.58 billion bushels,up 13 percent from theprevious year and arecord high.

Yield of 178 bushelsper acre is 15 bushelsabove 2008 and highestof record. Farmers har-vested 8.85 million acresof corn for grain, up 4percent from the previ-ous year.

Soybean productionfor 2009 totaled 259 million bushels, up 15 percentfrom the previous year and a record high. Yield, at54.5 bushels per acre, is up 8 bushels from 2008and highest of record. Area for harvest, at 4.76million acres, is down 2 percent from 2008.

Sorghum for grain production in 2009 is esti-mated at 13 million bushels, down 32 percent fromthe previous year. Yield, at 93 bushels per acre, isup 2 bushels from 2008. Area harvested for grainwas 140,000 acres, down 70,000 acres from a yearago and the lowest sorghum for grain acreagesince 1952.

Hay production totaled 6.24 million tons, virtu-ally unchanged from the previous year. Acreageharvested is 2.7 million acres, up 5 percent from2008. Yield, at 2.31 tons per acre, is down 0.1 tonper acre from a year ago. Alfalfa production isdown 6 percent from 2008, while all other hay pro-duction is up 9 percent.

Nationwide, U.S. cornfor grain production isestimated at a record13.2 billion bushels, up2 percent from the Nov.1 forecast, and 1 percentabove the previousrecord of 13 billionbushels set in 2007. U.S.grain yield is also esti-mated at a record levelfor 2009, at 165.2bushels per acre. This isup 2.3 bushels from theNovember forecast and4.9 bushels above theprevious record of 160.3bushels per acre set in2004.

"While we are extremely proud of the achieve-ments of growers in terms of production and yieldimprovements, we are not surprised," saidNational Corn Growers Association (NCGA)President Darrin Ihnen of Hurley, S.D. "Even indifficult conditions, our growers combine the mostmodern technology available with a strong workethic to produce a crop that meets all needs forfood, feed, fuel and fiber. What remains to be seenis the full impact of the millions of bushels thatfarmers could not yet harvest."

Al Dutcher ReportWeather Commentary Provided By Al Dutcher—UNL, State Climatologist

Nebraskans finallyexperienced a breakfrom the bitter coldtemperatures as aJanuary thaw devel-oped during the last10 days. Warmth waslimited across thedeeper snow pack ofeastern Nebraska, butwestern sections of thestate broke the 50 Fmark on several occa-sions. Significantmoisture still remainsin the snow over theeastern 1/4 of the

state, so the flood risk will be elevated until thesnow and ice pack on area streams and riversdisappears.

Week One Forecast, 1/23-1/29: A significantstorm system will be impacting the centralPlains through the first half of the forecast peri-od. Current model projections suggest that theheavier accumulating snows will be confined tothe northeastern 1/4 of the state on 1/23 withrain, sleet, and/or snow for the remainder of thestate. An isolated thunderstorm is not out of thequestion. Cold air will arrive in earnest by theevening and all locations are likely to see snow,although accumulations look light, with the

Dakota’s getting the worst of accumulations. Amore southern storm track could potentiallybring significant accumulations to the northernhalf of the state. Models indicate lighter snowamounts during the 1/24-1/25 period, but windscould cause significant blowing and driftingacross open areas. Benign conditions are expect-ed on 1/26, before another storm system worksout of the central Rockies and brings a chance ofaccumulating snow to eastern Nebraska on 1/27.Quiet conditions should return to the area duringthe 1/28-1/29 period. Highs will be mainly in the30's to low 40's on the 23rd. As the storm moveseast of the state, highs for the remainder of theforecast period will range from the 20's to low30's east and 30's to low 40's west.

Week Two Forecast, 1/30 - 2/5: Current modelsindicate only one system should impactNebraska during the forecast period. The stormis expected to develop over eastern Colorado onthe 31st and move toward southern Indiana bythe evening of February 1. Snow accumulationare projected for Nebraska and the Dakotas onthe 30th, with accumulations continuing acrossthe eastern half of the state on 1st. If this sys-tem verifies, the potential exists for snow accu-mulations in excess of 6 inches, especially overnortheastern and east central Nebraska. Hightemperatures during the period are projected tobe in the low 20's early in the period, warminginto the 30's by the end of the period.

Nuisance insects crawling or flying aroundindoors typically are considered a summer prob-lem, but some are actually most common duringwinter. Fortunately, most are only nuisancesrather than permanent pests in the home.

For example, a variety of insects may be carriedin on firewood. Insect borers are common in fire-wood, and may crawl out if the wood is allowed towarm indoors. Some might decide to fly aroundthe room. Fortunately, these insects are moreinterested in decaying wood rather than the typi-cal wood the house is made of.

If insects are crawling out of firewood, don’tspray the firewood with an insecticide. The best

solution is to store firewood out in the cold andonly bring in enough to put right into the fire.Spraying the home is seldom necessary becausethe insects will not take up residence.

Flies may appear on a sunny winter day, oftennear windows in the upper portions of the house,in particular older homes. These are usually clus-ter flies, a group of fly species that overwinter instructures, but do not breed in the home. Typicallythey will get under siding or work their way inthrough cracks or crevices. Once inside, clusterflies will often become active on a sunny day, usu-ally being attracted to windows.

The best strategy for dealing with cluster flies isto prevent them from getting in. Next summer,rather than now, consider sealing cracks andopenings around windows, eaves, and siding. Be

sure screening exists over air intake vents. Sealoff attic openings with screen or caulking. Removethe flies indoors by vacuuming. Pyrethroid spraysare another option for rooms with high infesta-tions; be sure to read label directions.

Finally, drain flies may appear in homes. Drainflies are dark colored, somewhat slow-flyinginsects that turn into powder when crushed. Asthe name implies, they lay eggs in organic matterthat may accumulated in drains or other areas ofstanding water. These eggs hatch into maggotsthat eventually become the adult drain fly.Cleaning out the drains is the best control meas-ure. Slowly pour boiling water, rubbing alcohol, ordrain cleaner into drains after cleaning out debris.

Winter Insects Usually are Only Nuisances Rather Than Permanent Pests

Sheryl Fellers, Dawson County Extension Service

Browsing the catalogs and planning the comingyear's garden is a pleasant way to spend a winterday, in spite of the danger of setting off a massivecase of spring fever. But choosing from the abun-dance of vegetable varieties in even a few catalogscan quickly become a challenge. Beginning gar-deners, especially, may have difficulty pickingvarieties to plant because they don't have the ben-efit of gardening experience and a list of favorites.

Catalogs are full of useful information about dis-ease resistance, days to maturity, plant habit (vin-ing vs. bush, for instance) and other desirabletraits, but so many choices -- all of which aredescribed in only the most positive terms -- can beoverwhelming.

A reliable guide is the catalog notation that avariety is an All-America Selections award win-

ner. To win an AAS award, a variety has to per-form well in side-by-side trials with proven vari-eties. Trial gardens are located all across theUnited States and in Canada, and varieties haveto perform well under a wide range of conditionsto earn an award.

A friend or neighbor who has the sort of gardenyou aspire to have may have some insights toshare, also. If someone shares his harvest withyou and those big, juicy tomatoes are the most fla-vorful you have ever tasted, ask what variety theyare. Variety selection is just one step in growing afantastic garden, but it can make a big differencein productivity and performance.

Though "new and improved" is often the watch-word in the seed catalogs, not all recommendedvarieties are new introductions. Some gardenstandouts have been around a long time.Connecticut Field pumpkins, for instance, go backto colonial times. Other venerable varieties

include Mary Washington asparagus, Detroit redbeets, New Yorker tomatoes, yellow crooknecksquash, Waltham butternut squash and earlyJersey Wakefield cabbage.

Most newer introductions are hybrids that offerimproved disease resistance, earliness or produc-tivity; more compact plants; improved color,shape, taste or storability; or some combination ofthese and other desirable traits.

If you've been gardening for a while and youhave your favorites but find yourself tempted totry "new and improved" this year, plant the newvariety alongside the old favorite rather thanswitching entirely to the new variety. If the newvariety doesn't live up to its billing, you still haveyour old standby to fall back on. And if it performsspectacularly, you'll have the tried-and-true vari-ety to compare it to. And maybe you'll have a newfavorite.

Browsing Garden Catalogs Can Heat Up Winter

According to the Proceedings of the NationalAcademy of Sciences, Americans have goneindoors and locked the door behind them. Inthe past 20 years outdoor activities byAmericans have declined by 20%. With about80% of kids living in urban areas and the riseof what is called “Videophilia” (an obsessionwith the internet and video games) kid’sknowledge of nature is almost nil. If they can’tshoot it on their video games or see pictures ofit on their I-Pods the natural world doesn’texist for them. It’s gotten so bad that doctorshave even coined a phrase for the “ailment”:Nature Deficiency Disorder. We’re told thatNDD has reached epidemic proportions.

At a holiday gathering recently I observedmen and young boys play golf all day on agame console called a Wii. Have you seenthese? The players gripped what looked like atelevision remote control just as they would agolf club, took a swing and looked up at thetelevision to see where their ball landed on amake-believe golf course. No green fees, mos-quitoes or dreaded exercise to get in the wayof a good golf game!

Hunting is on the wane because kids wouldrather shoot bad guys or aliens in video gamesthan to get up early to stalk a deer. Most oftoday’s kids will never know the pleasure ofsleeping outdoors with the ground as theirmattress and the stars for a blanket. They’llnever learn the skills of tying a fly, cleaning a

fish, dressing a deer, catching or shootingtheir own dinner.

Urbanites fear of nature hit close to homerecently when a house near ours sold. Thepeople who bought it moved out of the houseafter living in it for less than a month and wecouldn’t understand why. It turns out that thewife came face to face with a rattlesnake inthe backyard, so they sold the house they’donly owned for a month, took a big financialhit and moved somewhere without rat-tlesnakes.

America has become so urbanized folks areafraid of all animals. If an alligator gets loosein Florida residents in New York City locktheir doors. They refuse to go for walks where“man-killing” cows may be present and at pet-ting zoos they won’t let their kids approachthe “dangerous” goat or piglet. In the south-west recently on three separate occasions coy-otes tried to carry away little children and theonly outcry seemed to be, “What did those par-ents expect, letting their kids go outside likethat.”

These are the same folks who put steermanure on their lawns and fertilize with ureabut insist that cows be kept off the nationsgrasslands for all the harm they do. They crit-icize the farmer for using water to grow foodwhen they think it should be put to better use.Like filling their backyard swimming pools.They demand that the few loggers that are left

not cut any more of THEIR trees or thin anymore of THEIR forests and then they howland scream when the insurance companiesaren’t fast enough in rebuilding THEIR neigh-borhoods after a devastating forest fire.

They want those of us who spend time out-doors to be watched at all times. Some com-mercial fishermen in California are alreadybeing made to have GPS devices aboard theirboats to tell the government where they are atall times. It probably won’t be too long beforethe rest of us will have to have cameras posi-tioned to capture our every move so that somebureaucrat can watch us on a video monitor.

It’s sad really, as America locks itselfindoors fewer people will know the joy of aSierra lake, a Rocky Mountain high or anenchanting New Mexican sunset. NatureDeficiency Disorder is unhealthy for urban-ites and downright sickening for anybody whomakes their living outdoors. For although thecity-slickers have no firsthand knowledge ofnature, they’re going to insist on telling thoseof us who do how to manage it. The poor sapsdon’t understand that you don’t “manage”nature... you merely learn to live with it.

Soybean trade has continued to slip thisweek due to chart pressure and big supplyside expectations looking forward into2010. The weekly net changes headinginto Thursday on the March contracts are24 lower on beans, meal is down $6 andbean oil is nearly 100 points lower;November new crop beans are down 14cents. Nearby beans have now dropped$1.35 from the high printed at the begin-ning of the month to the low printed onWednesday. This creates a situation wherewe can see a good bounce near term, butthe bearish chart and fundamental itemswill likely not change. We have big SouthAmerican harvest pressure to get throughand bigger supply side expectations for thefuture to deal with as well. Even thoughwe have dropped a fair amount here, I

believe wanting to be a bull here may be apainful experience. Selling interest onbounces should be expected and advised.The positive items that remain in the mar-ketplace are our great 2009-10 demand todate and some wet weather which maycause some damage in South America orslow harvest activity. Hedgers call withquestions, but I believe you still need toconsider extending the coverage you wantto have in place, otherwise plan on sittingback and awaiting for a rally at some pointthis year due to a new news item. For now,the outside markets have a negative toneand the carryover expectations moving for-ward are on the rise, other than the oldcrop domestic balance sheet, but we arenot expecting any supply driven pricesqueeze.

Corn trade is down 3 to 4 cents on theweek heading into Thursday’s trade. Thelow printed on Wednesday did reach onedownside chart target and was just over60 cents below the high printed lastMonday. The outside markets have crudemoving lower, but so far it has held atsupport in the $75-77 area, the dollar hasbroken out to new highs and the stockmarket might be turning over to thedownside. We need to view the “commod-ity bull” argument as a weaker argumentlooking forward for the moment.Although we could bounce, long liquida-tion pressure due to margin losses andchart pressure need to be respected overthe next few months. Fundamental pres-sure needs to be respected as well due tothe upcoming South American harvestpressure and bigger projected carryovers

looking forward due to the USDAJanuary production increase and bigger2010 available acreage for spring plant-ing. On the chart we did fill the gap fromearly October on the March contract at$3.62-3.67, so one near-term downsideobjective was hit and we bounced up to$3.70. Technically, a move below $3.63will project a test of support at $3.47-50.Nearby resistance is up at $3.83 which isthe 100-day; this is only a little over adime above Wednesday’s high so abounce within a nickel of the 100-day ispossible. For now we continue to believeselling any short term bounce makes themost sense due to the negative funda-mentals and poor chart momentum. Theweekly sales will be delayed until Fridaymorning due to the MLK Governmentholiday on Monday.

Wheat trade has continued to sliplower this week following the negativeUSDA numbers last week. The weeklynet changes heading into Thursday are12 lower in Chicago on the March con-tract, KC is down 8 cents andMinneapolis is down 9. Wheat is gettingoversold and due for a bounce, whichmay be the best friendly item I can men-tion for wheat. Ultimately row cropstrength needs to occur to support wheat.The export sector remains very poor; thiswas well illustrated with the USDA car-ryover increase on the report last weekjumping the carryover to just under 1 bil-lion bushels and our stocks-to-usageration to nearly 50% on the domestic bal-ance sheet. That means we could literal-

ly have half our crop destroyed and wewould still have enough wheat on handto get by. The U.S. remains uncompeti-tive with Black Sea wheat in the globalexport market and now we also havecompetition with southern hemispherewheat, so U.S. exports are not expectedto pick up. The weekly sales report,delayed until Friday, should continue toillustrate low U.S. sales. Hedgers callwith questions, you still need to considerextending some coverage if you did notbefore the report, if we do see anotherdownside leg it would make sense to holdfor a bounce. The downside chart targetright now is the October March Chicagolow at $4.60.

Increasing input costs are forcing producers toevaluate every decision they make. With soybeanseed costs on the rise, producers in south centralNebraska wondered if they could reduce their soy-bean populations while maintaining yield andsaving money. On-farm research was conducted infarmer plots and at the South CentralAgricultural Laboratory near Clay Center. Theresearch, that was conducted in field scale, ran-domized, and replicated plots from 2006-2008,proved producers could reduce planting popula-tions and still maintain yields.

Since 2006, planting rates of 90,000, 120,000,150,000, and 180,000 seeds per acre have beenplanted in 12 irrigated soybean fields in 30-inchrows. Prior to this research, most of these produc-ers planted 160,000-180,000 seeds/acre. The90,000 low rate was determined based on UNLresearch recommending not to replant a hailedsoybean stand if at least 90,000 plants/acreremained in the field.

In 2008, cooperating producers used these samerates to plant soybeans at five sites with 20 repli-cations. Planting dates ranged from April 29 toJune 3. In the end, there was little difference inpercentage stand and yield among the four plant-ing rates (see Table 1). The 120,000, 150,000, and180,000 yields were statistically the same (only a0.3-bushel difference between the 120,000 and150,000 rates) and were significantly better thanthe 90,000 seed-per-acre plots; however, note that

the 90,000 plot yielded only 1.7 bu/ac less than the150,000 plot. All data was statistically analyzed todetermine the yield differences due to the varioustreatments.

The findings are similar to the 2006 and 2007studies. In 2006, yield results ranged from 65.5bu/ac at 90,000 to 67.4 bu/ac at 180,000. In 2007yield results were 59.4, 59.6, 59.4, and 60.2 bu/acfor 90,000, 120,000, 150,000, and 180,000 respec-tively with no statistical difference.

Most likely, these results are indicative of soy-bean's ability to compensate for reduced popula-tions. Soybeans will have increased plant branch-ing at lower populations compared to less plantbranching at higher populations. This character-istic was observed in all fields regardless of vari-ety. Also observed in 2008, were two additionalnodes/plant at the 90,000 population compared tothe 180,000 population. Nodes are just asimportant as flowers and pods, and ultimatelyyield is influenced by the number of nodes.

A dryland field in Nuckolls County also showedinteresting results. This field was hailed at thecotyledon stage, so planted populations of 100K,130K, and 160K became average actual stands of74,417; 89,417; and 97,917 plants per acre. Augustrains in 2006 helped deliver yields of 38.6, 40.6and 42.7 bu/ac, respectively.

Recommendation: Plant Soybeans at 120,000Seeds/Acre – Based on three years of consistentresearch results, UNL specialists recommendreducing planting populations from an average of160,000 seeds/acre to 120,000 seeds/acre in 30-

inch rows. This reduction of 40,000 seeds per acreresults in a savings of $10.66 to $18.57 per acrebased on seed costs of $40-65 a bag. For threeyears producers were able to achieve a 90% standand have not seen a statistical yield variance from150,000 or even 180,000 seeds/acre. With soybeanseed costs increasing, reducing soybean plantingpopulations is another way producers can survivehigh input costs of crop production.

The U.S. railroad industry represents one of themost important methods of transportation for thesoy industry, but lately it has presented somechallenges to U.S. soybean farmers. Recently, theSoy Transportation Coalition (STC), with fundingfrom the soybean checkoff, published “RailroadMovement of Soybeans and Soy Products,” a com-prehensive report that sheds light on the crucialrole railroads play in the entire journey from farmto dinner plate.

The volume of soybeans, soybean meal and soy-bean oil moved by the rail industry; the leadingdestinations for those products; and the revenueand rates associated with those movements weretopics investigated by the study. In particular, theanalysis focuses on the volume of soybeans andsoy products that are transported at potentiallyexcessive rates, those states whose soybean indus-try is most dependent on rail and those railroadsthat transport the highest volumes of soybeansand soy products.

“The soy producer pays the freight in and out,”says Gregg Fujan, Soy Transportation Coalitionrepresentative for the Nebraska Soybean Boardand a soybean farmer from Weston, Nebraska.“We understand that, and that’s OK, as long as wearen’t being singled out and have to pay more thanour fair share. The study looked at who pays, howmuch do we pay, is what we pay fair and is it whateveryone else is paying?”

The study found that 43 percent of rail move-ments of soybeans, or 9.2 million tons are trans-ported at rates the U.S. Surface TransportationBoard would classify as potentially excessive,resulting in a potential overcharge of $120 millionin 2007.

“If you take $120 million in excessive chargesand refund some of that to farmers you could

make a difference to rural communities,” saysFujan. “We’re concerned about that and talkingwith Class I rails, trying to reduce what we’re pay-ing and make it a little more fair.”

The report also shows that revenue among thelargest Class I railroads from transporting soy-beans and soy products has nearly tripled in 10years, from $549 million in 1998 to more than $1.5billion in 2008. BNSF Railway transports thelargest volume of soybeans at 8.8 million tons in2008. Union Pacific Railroad is the largest origi-nator of soybean meal and soybean oil.

“The current and future vitality of agriculture isdependent upon a healthy, profitable rail indus-try,” says Mike Steenhoek, executive director ofthe STC. “There needs to be a way for railroadsand the soybean industry to achieve a better bal-ance so that one is not profiting at the expense ofthe other.”

The STC study can be found at www.soytrans-portation.org.

USB is made up of 68 farmer-directors who over-see the investments of the soybean checkoff onbehalf of all U.S. soybean farmers. Checkoff fundsare invested in the areas of animal utilization,human utilization, industrial utilization, industryrelations, market access and supply. As stipulatedin the Soybean Promotion, Research andConsumer Information Act, USDA’s AgriculturalMarketing Service has oversight responsibilitiesfor USB and the soybean checkoff.

Checkoff Study Looks at Railroad Rates for SoyStudy shows some rail rates classified as potentially excessive

As research continues to demonstrate thehuman health value of eating soyfoods, a recentlypublished study shows that soyfoods are not onlysafe but also beneficial for breast cancer survivors.In the past, some doctors have cautioned somebreast cancer patients and survivors to avoid eat-ing soy, because of the mild estrogen-like effectsexhibited by isoflavones, a natural plant com-pound in soy, in certain lab conditions. But withthis study, recently published in the Journal ofAmerican Medical Association, health profession-als can feel comfortable recommending soyfoods tobreast cancer patients.

The soybean checkoff and the United SoybeanBoard (USB) fund research on the healthfulness ofsoyfoods. Checkoff-funded research has helped toprove benefits such as soy’s ability to help reducethe risk of heart disease.

“It is important the soybean checkoff work withuniversities and other science-based entities tomake sure that accurate research is being donethat will put factual information out to the publicand medical professionals,” says Lisa Lunz, soy-bean farmer from Wakefield , NE, and Chairmanof the Nebraska Soybean Board Research commit-tee. “Soybean farmers know that their product is avery worthwhile and healthy product. Withresearch into soybeans’ nutritional value, the soy-bean can be considered as part of a healthy diet.”

Burgener has submitted data to be published,and later this winter he will meet with local pro-ducers to fine-tune the numbers.

"The group chose me because they wanted afarm that was irrigation dependent, and functionswhere it is due to irrigation," Burgener said. "Atypical farm."

A description of a typical farm for the study canbe found at the agri benchmark website:www.agribenchmark.org.

Burgener was also invited to the annual meetingin Cambridge, England, this past June.

"The deal was that if I contributed a poster forAgriTechnica, the world's largest ag trade show inHanover, Germany, the agri benchmark groupwould fund my trip," Burgener said. "The postershared the challenges we are facing locally withlimited irrigation restrictions."

The poster, one of three from agri benchmark atAgriTechnica, included photos from the Panhandleand was printed in English, German and Russian.

"I was able to visit two farms in the Cambridgearea," Burgener said. "One was a 370-acre farmowned by a family. The other was part of a custom-farming company which is one of the world'slargest, farming 590,000 acres in the UK, Russiaand the Ukraine, in addition to farming in sixother countries."

Twenty-three countries are participating in thegroup with three locations in the United States:Iowa, South Dakota and Nebraska. The next annu-al meeting will be held in Australia.

"Unfortunately, this trip would be out of my ownpocket," Burgener said, smiling. "But my wife andI have been saving up since June."

LOCAL AG ECONOMIST JOINS WORLDWIDE STUDYContinued from page 1

NEBRASKA FARMERS PRODUCE RECORD CORN CROPContinued from page 1

As it was in South Dakota, a cool fall didn'tallow the corn crop to dry down on a timely basis.Harvest was delayed well into November as dry-ing space at local elevators and on farms was at apremium as corn moisture was high.

U.S. corn growers produced this record cropusing fewer acres. In 2009, USDA estimates 86.6million acres were used for corn production, com-pared with the 93.5 million acres used to producethe previous record crop in 2007.

In its World Agricultural Supply and DemandEstimates, the USDA estimated a total corn sup-ply of 14.8 billion bushels, with 5.6 billion bushelsbeing used for feed, 4.2 billion for ethanol andcoproducts, and 1.3 billion for other domestic uses.The U.S. will export 2.1 billion bushels of corn,with a carry-out of 1.8 billion bushels in freestocks at the end of the marketing year. Averagefarm price is estimated at $3.70 per bushel, thesecond year of a drop in average corn prices.

Also, USDA reports that corn stocks were up 9percent over December 2008. Corn stored in allpositions on Dec. 1, 2009, totaled 10.9 billionbushels. Of the total stocks, 7.45 billion bushelsare stored on farms, up 15 percent from a year ear-lier. Off-farm stocks, at 3.49 billion bushels, aredown 3 percent from 2008.

Soybean production in 2009, nationally, totaled3.36 billion bushels, up 1 percent from the Nov. 1forecast and up 13 percent from 2008. U.S. produc-tion is the largest on record. The average yield peracre is estimated at a record high 44 bushels, 0.7bushel above the November 1 forecast and 4.3bushels above 2008's yield. Harvested area is up 2percent from the previous year to a record 76.4million acres.

Sorghum grain production in 2009, nationally, isestimated at 383 million bushels, up 5 percentfrom the Nov. 1 forecast, but 19 percent below2008. Planted area is estimated at 6.63 millionacres, down 20 percent from last year, and is thethird lowest acreage total on record. Area harvest-ed for grain, at 5.52 million acres, is down 24 per-cent from 2008. Average grain yield, at 69.4bushels per acre, is up 5.4 bushels from the previ-ous forecast and up 4.4 bushels from 2008.

While existing ethanol plants are running at an

average 85 percent capacity, American FarmBureau Federation economic analyst Terry Franclsaid production appears to be coming back ontrack as margins rebound. The economy is expect-ed to slowly rally, and plants sidelined by bank-ruptcy and financial woes will resume operationunder new management, he said.

"We'll probably see corn acreage expand aroundthe 90 million-acre level, up a little over 3 millionacres from this past year," Francl said. "Soybeanswill probably hold. The big decline will be in thewheat area, down around 3 to 4 million acres, butwe may pick up a million acres in cotton.

Francl said there will also be about 2 millionacres coming out of the Conservation ReserveProgram.

"So we may pick up another 200,000 acres to300,000 acres in corn and soybeans, maybe a littlein the wheat, but that's about it," he said.

Francl said the two greatest potential demandfactors impacting corn heading into summer areexport numbers, which currently are lagging "onthe low end of expectations" and could drop evenfurther, and the Environmental ProtectionAgency's (EPA) decision regarding nationwideadoption of a standard ethanol-gasoline blend ratebetween the current 10 percent and a proposed 15percent. EPA is expected to rule on blend levels byJune.

Meanwhile, Francl said feeding numbers mayrise as livestock require additional calories toweather a frigid winter.

For soybeans, Francl said the South Americancrop is the wild card in the mix.

"Last year, an Argentine drought contributed toa 20-percent drop in the crop, but good rains havereplenished potential for trend-line or near-trend-line bean numbers and thus increased exportpressure on global prices," Francl said.

He anticipates near-term prices around $9.50per bushel to $10.50 per bushel, with the springcorn-soybean "bidding war" adding a possible 25cents to 50 cents.

"But a bountiful South American crop conceiv-ably could knock prices to $8 to $8.50 per bushellevels by fall," Francl said.


Just a few weeks ago, the terrorist plot to bringdown Northwest Airlines Flight 253 was thwartedby a combination of luck and vigilance on the partof everyday citizens.

This incident aboard an international flight fromAmsterdam to Detroit on Christmas Day combinedwith the assassination of seven CIA officers inAfghanistan by a double-agent just before the NewYear are stark reminders the war on terror contin-ues.

Terrorists still have innocent people in theirsights and the will to follow through on their mur-derous intents.

The challenge those tasked with defending ournation and our people is as simple as it is unset-tling: terrorists only have to do everything rightonce, while those who defend our nation have toget it right every time.

This threat does not exist in any one nation orhave a single face – it is global, multi-faceted andconstantly evolving. It seeks out ungoverned spotsaround the globe from which to operate – placeslike Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, and Yemen.

I have traveled to many of these areas, and havejust returned from the Middle East where I was

able to discuss terrorism with the leaders of Israel,Egypt and Turkey. The challenges are immense,but the safety and security of Americans dependson Congress and the White House making theright decisions.

Both parties recognize the stakes. However, thisis about much more than an expanding no-fly listor an increasingly cumbersome security line.

We need to take a hard look at exactly what wentwrong and how to actively prevent future attacks.We should remove legal and bureaucratic barrierswhich have raised significant obstacles for theU.S. military and intelligence communities inaggressively pursuing those who have joined orassisted terrorist groups.

Congress also should pass H.R. 2294, the KeepTerrorists Out of America Act, a commonsense billwhich would prevent terrorists from being broughtto American soil. The measure, of which I am acosponsor, would require the President notifyCongress 60 days before a transfer or release of aGuantanamo Bay detainee. This measure alsowould require states to consent to any release ortransfer of an enemy combatant into their state.

For instance, this bill would help stop the mis-

guided plan to put Khalid Sheikh Mohammed andother terrorists on trial in downtown Manhattan.Bringing dangerous terrorists to U.S. soil does notmake our country safer; rather if terrorists arebrought to our country to be tried in U.S. courts,they would seek to manipulate the rights providedby the very Constitution they seek to destroy.

The Keep Terrorists Out of America Act also willhelp ensure we are treating terrorists as war crim-inals, not as petty criminals warranting lawenforcement actions.

Recent events demonstrate the threat to ournation is not a structured organization. The ter-rorists who hate our freedom do not have member-ship cards or a central authority. However, they doshare the common goal of harming U.S. interestsat home and abroad.

It has been more than eight years sinceSeptember 11, 2001, and threats still exist. TheAmerican people should not have to rely on luck tostop terrorist attacks. They deserve a governmentwhich is working together on all levels to keep ourhomeland safe.

2010 Challenges Will Require Strong Leadershipby Senator Mike Johanns

Dear Nebraskans, Amidst the bustle of Christmas and the New

Year, two headlines reminded us of why the gov-ernment should strive to rise above politics whendebating and enacting policy. When a man withties to al Qaeda attempted to blow up an Americanairliner on Christmas Day, it served as a fresh andstark warning that our enemies abroad remaincommitted to waging war against our country andour ideals. We must remain vigilant in the fightagainst those who still reject freedom and toler-ance as a basic part of human life. This meansenacting sensible policy free from the constraintsof politics; it means not allowing captured terror-ists to return to al Qaeda hotbeds to continue theirfight.

I sent a letter to President Obama urging him toreverse his pledge to transfer detainees from thedetention facility at Guantanamo Bay. Accordingto the Department of Defense, this policy hasresulted in as much as 20 percent of the releaseddetainees resuming the fight. In their rush to close

Guantanamo, the Administration seems bent onfulfilling an uninformed campaign promise to closeGuantanamo. The current detainees would betransferred to the U.S., where they would gainmore legal rights, or to certain potentially unreli-able countries overseas. The United States canstill commit itself to its noble democratic stan-dards while protecting itself from those committedto the destruction of democracy and all of itsadherents.

In contrast, a promise President Obama shouldkeep but is having trouble doing so relates totransparency. Yet it is now, more than ever, thatthe American people need the President to honorhis pledge about transparency and honesty in gov-ernment. Earlier this month, leading Democrats inCongress announced health care legislation willbypass the formal conference committee, the tradi-tional means by which differences in the Houseand Senate versions are ironed out. Instead, theyfavor closed-door negotiations. This directly con-tradicts a promise President Obama made

throughout his campaign: "we'll have the negotia-tions televised on C-SPAN, so that people can seewho is making arguments on behalf of their con-stituents." Last week, C-SPAN CEO Brian Lambexpressed his willingness to help the Presidentmake this promise a reality.

In response, I signed a letter, along with 39 of mySenate colleagues, strongly advocating thePresident to follow through with his commitment.I find it very unfortunate that the health caredebate has devolved to a point that 40 Senatorshad no choice but to formally request honesty andtransparency from their colleagues. If the bill is socontentious and flawed as to require the eleventhhour of negotiations to be cloaked in secrecy, some-thing is terribly wrong.

The new year will bring many new challengesand recycle some old ones. It will require honestand sensible policymaking that fulfills two essen-tial responsibilities: national security and trans-parent government. Anything less is a disserviceto all Americans.

LINCOLN - State senators from the RepublicanBasin introduced a bill this week to allow refundsof special property taxes collected in 2007 butlater declared unconstitutional by the NebraskaSupreme Court.

The bill, LB893, has been assigned to theNebraska Legislature's Revenue Committee. Ahearing date hasn't been set.

The goal of LB701 was to provide a local fundingmechanism - a special property tax and an occupa-tion tax on irrigated acres - for the Lower, Middleand Upper Republican Natural ResourcesDistricts to pay for surface water leased in 2007from irrigation districts. The water was used toaugment river flows to Kansas for RepublicanRiver Compact compliance.

Officials of the NRDs also hoped to use theLB701 taxing authority to fund future complianceprojects.

Taxes collected in 2007 weren't spent because agroup of Republican Basin landowners filed a law-suit challenging the constitutionality of the prop-erty tax.

In the meantime, the state loaned the NRDs the$9 million needed to pay their debts to the surfacewater irrigators.

The initial lawsuit said, in part, that LB701 cre-ated a closed class of taxpayers and allowed a localtax for a state purpose, interstate compact compli-ance.

Those arguments first were upheld in LancasterCounty District Court and then by the stateSupreme Court, which ruled on Feb. 6, 2009, thatthe special property tax was unconstitutional.

The same landowners' group then filed a similarlawsuit challenging the occupation tax. That law-suit is pending in Lancaster County DistrictCourt.

Meanwhile, NRD officials have failed to find alegal way to refund the LB701 property taxes tolandowners who didn't meet the deadline to fileprotests. Counties continue to hold the 2007 prop-erty and occupation taxes in escrow.

Sens. Mark Christensen of Imperial and co-sponsor Sen. Tom Carlson of Holdrege hope LB893will resolve the tax refund issue.

In general, the bill says that if a final courtorder on or after Jan. 1, 2009, says that a person-al property, real property or occupation tax is

unconstitutional, it can be repaid or refundedwithout a filed claim.

"Hopefully, that will take care of it," Carlsonsaid. "These people should have been repaid longago."

The two senators also are co-sponsors of LB862,which Christensen believes should fix any "closedclass" problems with the occupation tax.

He told the Hub last week that the major changeis to replace language defining NRD eligibility toassess the occupation tax. Words referring to athree-state interstate compact would be changedto give occupation tax authority whenever themajority of NRDs in a basin have regulatorymetering.

Christensen said the authority would apply onlyin the Republican Basin initially, but the criteriacould be met soon by other basins.

Another Christensen bill, LB932, says that ifthe NRDs aren't authorized to levy or use the pro-ceeds from the LB701 property or occupationtaxes, they aren't obligated to repay the state loanfor the 2007 surface water purchase.

The Legislature's Natural Resources Committeewill schedule hearings on LB862 and LB932.

Working withone piece at a time, first dip in egg and milk then coatthe chicken with the dry flour mixture, then the egg andmilk mixture again, and then back into the flour. Be surethat each piece is coated very generously.

Stack the chicken on a plate or cookie sheet until eachpiece has been coated. Drop the chicken, one piece at atime into the hot shortening. Fry half of the chicken at atime (4 pieces) for 12-15 minutes, or until it is golden brown.

Remove the chicken to a rack or towels to drain for about5 minutes before eating.

YummyRestaurant Rolls

1 lb. frozen Bread Dough,thawed according topackage (honey wheat or white)

1/2 T. Margarine to taste(NOT butter)

1-2 t. Honey, to taste

Thaw frozen dough, let rise, and bake dough all according to package directions—either for a loaf or rolls.When the bread has baked and while still warm, combinemargarine and honey well and spread liberally all over thetop of the warm bread. It should be glistening.

You may serve right away, or you may prepare earlier inthe day and set the warm, glistening bread inside a resealable plastic bag. It will stay very soft this way and canbe reheated as desired later the same day. Serve warmwith real butter or more honey margarine mixture, asdesired.

Live cattle trade is narrowly mixed for theweek and feeders are higher; the lower corntrade and higher cash cattle prices have sup-ported the feeder market. Chart buying andpositive cash and cutout items have helpedLive Cattle keep the uptrend in place. Trademay be lightly lower as we head into Fridaydue to some profit taking ahead of the monthlyCattle on Feed report Friday afternoon.Expectations ahead of the report remain friend-ly, but market bears argue that we have priced-in both smaller placements and larger market-ings. Light cash trade developed at $140 inNebraska and Iowa the past two days whichwould project an $87-$88 market in the Souththis week. The cutout was lower Wednesdaywith choice finishing 117 lower at 145.38 andselect was down 48 at 140.97, but the cutout

does remain at a good level. Demand the rest ofthe month will be important to support thehigher cutout. The chart is still positive, but weprinted new highs for the move earlyWednesday and finished lower signaling wehave reached some upside targets. The nearbyFebruary trade reached the 200-day movingaverage this week and slipped, illustrating apossible top. The higher cash cattle prices andcheaper feed are good items, but feeder cattlefutures have now rallied $8 from the Decemberlows, illustrating good placement interest,which ultimately should limit buying interestin the week ahead. Hedgers, look to lock in pos-itive margins, by bias we have reached someupside targets and lower futures trade is likelyas we look ahead over the next several weeks.

Lean hog trade is mixed on the weekheading into Thursday following amove to fresh highs on Tuesday. This isa short week of futures trade; we didcarry last week’s upward momentuminto Tuesday with a surge to freshhighs, including a move up to $81.50on the June contract, but have seenlight profit taking since. Cash hasbeen firm which has the nearby con-tracts higher on the week withdeferred months lightly lower on theweek after two days of trade. Packer

margins remain positive, so we need torespect the nearby bull argument forthe moment. We continue to have thestance that hedgers should be usingthis strength to extend covering intosummer numbers. December futuresstill look a little cheap, and hopefullywe can see a surge above $70 at somepoint on October numbers. The nearbychart argument remains positive, butwe are overbought and some deferredchart action has turned or threateningto turn lower.

A recent change made by Taiwan that restrictsimports of U.S. beef will affect regional producers.

Taiwanese lawmakers voted on Jan. 5 to banimports of some kinds of U.S. beef over concernsabout mad cow disease, reversing an earlier dealthe government had negotiated with Washington.

While the U.S. voiced its disappointment withTaiwan's move, it is unlikely to have serious con-sequences for relations between the sides; howev-er some beef producers are concerned about theban.

Nebraska Cattlemen Vice President of MemberServices Melody Benjamin, in the Alliance office,said that local producers are grumbling about therestrictions.

"Producers are asking me, 'When are we going toget over these trade barriers,'" Benjamin, said."The problem is not only with Taiwan but othercountries are using non-scientific reasons to limitbeef sales."

While Taiwan is accepting bone-in meat underthe new law, it is excluding ground meat fromimportation. According to Benjamin, ground beefmakes up about 40 percent of the animal.Benjamin also said that most countries prefer beeftrimmings to ground beef anyway, so they cangrind it in their own country.

U.S. Meat Export Federation Vice President ofCommunications Jim Herlihy said the Taiwanpull back was disappointing because new legisla-tion was not consistent with science.

"We want consistencyin acknowledging thesafety of meat world-wide based on OIE stan-dards," Herlihy said."We just want theadherence to scienceamong our trading part-ners."

While Taiwan's farm-ers are upset with grow-ing U.S. competition,another key issue is thefear by the Taiwanese

that beef products will increase the likelihood ofthe spread of bovine spongiform encephalopathy,"mad cow disease," which can affect humans.

Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease has beenassociated with consumption of products contami-nated with central nervous system tissue fromBSE-infected cattle. There have been close to 200cases of CJD in the world and no cases associatedwith beef consumption in the U.S.

Currently, U.S. beef is classified as "controlledrisk" for BSE by the Organization for AnimalHealth, meaning that trade in U.S. beef and beefproducts from animals of all ages is completelysafe provided that certain slaughter and beef pro-cessing conditions are met. Extensive testing indi-cates that U.S. cattle are safe.

In a statement to the press, Taiwan governmentofficial Su Jun-pin said that the amount of U.S.beef imports that may be influenced by the actionby Taiwan's Legislative Yuan accounts for only amarginal 2 percent of Taiwan's total beef importsfrom the United States, or about $2.3 million yearto date.

This 2 percent comes out to an industry loss ofbetween $20 and $30 per head, as the liver, intes-tine, tongue and tripe can't be sold.

While recent numbers for Nebraska beef export-ed to Taiwan each year are not available;Nebraska produces 20 percent of all U.S. beef.Through October 2009, Taiwan exported 22,225metric tons of beef and beef variety meats worthabout $114 million amounting to a 40 percentshare of the Taiwan beef market.

Nebraska Beef Producers Upset with Taiwan Beef Changes

By Robert Pore, The Grand Island Independent

Farmers are aging and billions of dollars are atstake shaping the future of production agricultureand rural communities for decades to come as thenext generation prepares to be tomorrow's farm-ers.

But, according to Ron Hanson, Neal E. HarlanDistinguished Professor of Agribusiness at theUniversity of Nebraska-Lincoln, when transfer ofactual ownership occurs to the next generation, "...the entire succession process itself can result in alot of emotional stress among the family membersinvolved."

Hanson spoke Tuesday at the Grand IslandChamber of Commerce Ag Committee AgProducers Forum and Appreciation Dinner. Theevent was originally set for December, but waspostponed because of inclement weather.

"We want to help producers who are retiring andin the transition phase of their operation from onegeneration to the next," said Jeff Spiehs, ag lend-ing officer at Platte Valley State Bank & Trust Co.and former chairman of the chamber's ag commit-tee.

Spiehs said family farm business ownership suc-cession is an important issue for CentralNebraska.

This particular study tracked more than 5,000Chinese women, ages 20 to 75, beginning sixmonths after their breast cancer diagnosis. Thestudy’s investigators followed the women’s healthfor four years and found that the group that con-sumed higher amounts of soy protein, two servingsa day, had a lower mortality rate and a lowerrecurrence rate than those who consumed less soy.All told, the women who consumed the higheramounts of soy had a 30 percent decrease in risk.

“Having known several people with breast can-cer, I feel this will give them the option of incorpo-rating soy as part of a healthy diet without thefears or worries about the product,” adds Lunz.

To learn more about soyfoods, such as edamame,soymilk and textured soy protein, and how toinclude more soy in your diet, visit www.united-soybean.org.

members," he said. "When that farm is passed onto one of those family farm members, working outa solution where everyone is happy with the endresult can be difficult."

According to the Center for Rural Affairs inLyons, the population of U.S. agriculture is poisedto make a dramatic change as half of all currentfarmers are likely to retire in the next decade.

The Center for Rural Affairs said that U.S. farm-ers over age 55 control more than half the farm-land, while the number of entry-level farmersreplacing them has fallen by 30 percent since 1987and now makes up only 10 percent of farmers andranchers.

What's at stake is huge as the Center for RuralAffairs said that absent a new generation of begin-ners, "... that land will concentrate in large farms,causing the permanent loss of opportunity forfamily farms, ranches, and rural communities andsquandering the chance to shift to a more sustain-able system of agriculture."

Hanson said any time people are discussingownership succession, whether it's passing on afamily farm or family business, "The question ishow do we make this transition happen in passingan estate from one generation to the next, whilemaking it work within the family."

He said the reason this is a critical issue is "thatso many times in a family, the parents work theirentire lifetime to build that business or build thatfarm, that estate. And, if those children don't getalong and it ends up being divided or sold off anda bunch of attorneys get involved and it ends up ina court fight, no one wins."

"I think the sad part is that parents work theirentire life to build an estate, to build a wealth

position with the hopes of passing this on to theirchildren and if it doesn't work within the family,their hopes and many of their dreams will nevercome true," Hanson said.

For Hanson, the real tragedy is "... as manytimes, from my observations, parents, grandpar-ents and even great-grandparents who started thebusiness, started the farm or even homesteaded,see their wishes and dreams lost."

Hanson has been at the University of Nebraskafor 36 years and has seen the issue of farm succes-sion grow more complicated as farming hasbecome an increasingly expensive enterprise.

"It has become more complicated because asthese farming issues have grown in size and thescope of operation has expanded to huge propor-tions," he said. "They have set up trusts, set upcorporations, they have set up limited partner-ships " many of these for business purposes, taxplanning " and these things become very compli-cated."

But for the last 36 years, Hanson said the thingthat he has seen and is current today, is that ageneration ago, particularly during 1980s farmcrisis years, there may have been a family mem-ber not interest in the financial stress involved inproduction agriculture and went off in their owndirection.

"But what you see now, and Central Nebraska isa perfect example, with what this farmland is sell-ing for and you look at these farming operationsthat have built huge estates, you are now talkingabout multimillion-dollar farm estate operations,"he said.

And because of the wealth involved compared toa generation ago, a sibling who once had littleinterest in the family farm and left the farm nowwants a piece of that operation.

"Now, they are saying, Is brother going to get all1,200 acres just because he stayed on the farm?Where's my part of this?'" Hanson said. "What I'mhearing from these parents is that these kids arecoming back now and saying, Where is my share?'"

Hanson said with more and more farmers com-peting for whatever available farmland is outthere, a valuable piece of farm property can fetcha lot of money.

"I have seen a definite change of attitudes, par-ticularly from the nonfamily kids," he said.

And it's a real dilemma for the parents looking toretire.

"The farm operation is large enough that thekids can't afford to buy it, yet the parents, whonow live a longer life, are fearful that if they giveaway the farm now, who takes care of them later?"Hanson said. "If they don't have the farm and havethe income from the farm, then where is the moneygoing to come from?"

While parents don't want to be a burden on theirchildren, Hanson said parents want to hold on tothat farm. But, he said, the kids are saying if theydon't get it now, when are they going to have it?"

Hanson said the way to solve many of the prob-lems associated with farm ownership succession isfor parents have to have a "clear vision" for thatfarm and their estate.

"Do they have a plan in place?" he said. "It'stheir farm, their estate and their family. Theyhave worked their entire life to build it, to earn itand to keep it. They have every right to do whatthey choose. They may make some decisions thatmaybe not all the children will like or agree with,but what I tell my students in my class is, youalways have to respect your parents. Your parentsdon't owe you a farm because you want to go homeand farm. If they help you get started in farming,that is a gift of love and generosity and not an obli-gation."

Hanson said that being a family and stayingtogether as a family even during difficult times orstressful situations needs to be the guiding light,"... to help families through these discussions,which relate to the ownership succession of thefamily farm and transfer of management control tothe next generation."
