Today was supposed to be spent with Sara in Kennebunkport playing with sheep, dogs, fleece and garden. Maybe even a dip in the OCEAN. But no, forecast said thunderstorms and Jeric doesn't do well in them. So stayed put.
In spite of disappointment and mood, had a very good day of positive work results for clients, a little spinning, dog walking, healthy fresh lunch, and garden play. Here are some of the garden sights I enjoyed. I'm so proud of my little patch of joy.
My good boy wanders around the garden.

Fresh mangoes from the Philippines have touched down in Australia for the first time in about two decades.
- Carabao mangoes are commonly known as the “Manila mango” or “Philippine mango”
- Australia has long imported dry mango products from the Philippines, but is now importing fresh mangoes
- These imports clash with Australia’s mango harvest, but are not expected to hurt local prices
The carabao mangoes have landed in Perth and Sydney and arrive at a time when Australia’s mango harvest is starting to ramp up in the Northern Territory.
Zona Tan-Sheppard from the Thorny Fruit Company said around 1,500 kilograms had arrived in the first consignment and sold immediately.
“It’s been exciting to be a part of this and they 100 per cent sold out before they arrived in Sydney, they didn’t go through the wholesale markets,” she said.
“A lot of these mangoes have gone direct to Filipino migrants who wanted a taste of home.”
Ms Tan-Sheppard said the 5-kilogram trays were retailing between $130 and $180 each.
She said the mangoes were initially meant to arrive during Australia’s winter months and demand going forward would determine how many more get exported to Australia.
“Australia has such a beautiful mango industry, but there is a niche here of providing migrants with a taste from home,” she said.
“These mangoes are about one-third the size of a voluptuous Kensington Pride mango, but it’s more about that nostalgia and having that family atmosphere with the taste of what they grew up with.”
Import numbers ‘minute’
Chief executive of the Australian Mango Industry Association Brett Kelly told ABC Rural in June that trade “was a two-way street” and he was not expecting the Philippines to export large volumes to Australia.
“I wouldn’t think there will be a huge amount [of volume] … and I can’t see it causing any issues with our own industry and trade,” he said.
Ms Tan-Sheppard said the amount of mangoes being imported compared to Australia’s production was “minute”.
“The Australian mango industry shouldn’t feel threatened. This is a test batch to gauge the reception,” she said.
“I think for the Philippine government it was also about understanding what can be exported and how they can meet biosecurity protocols.”
The mango season in the Northern Territory is expected to peak in mid-October, when around 350,000 trays — equating to 2.45 million kilograms — will be picked in just one week.

This Saturday and next we are having our annual open house and plant sale. We'll have lots of veggie and flower starts for you garden and fresh pizza coming out of the oven and some live music from the boys in Spoonshine. Looks like the weather is going to hold and might even be sunny! Come on out and see what we've been up to.
One good thing about having an event like this (or company) is that it motivates you to tidy up. It's a good thing. We've been busy mowing, weed wacking, weeding and spring cleaning in general. The property is looking good. I love it when it's all spiffy. The only bad thing is we've spent all of outr time here on the home farm and are neglecting our other "in-proccess" projects like building fences and finishing up the greenhouse. It's OK, things are still drying out there anyway.
We've been building new green house tables this week too, something I've wanted to do for a long time. the new ones are way more space effecient than our current system. I think they'll work better too because we are using a mesh top so the roots coming out of the bottom of the flats can air prune which may be more important than I know. They also just look nice. This will be an ongoing project as time and money allow. We need about 40 of them. I've got the proccess down to about 30 minutes per bench and they cost about $30 each in materials. Hopefully we'll get at least ten years out of them.
Fields are still too wet to work so it's another big week in the greenhouse's. We moved about seventy flat's to our "showroom" solarium up at the house for this weekend's sale so we have a little more room for more flats. If it stays dry, we may be able to transplant on Friday? Needless to say, we're pretty backed up and we need to get some plants in the ground. Honestly though all the plants we've transplanted to date are not growing too fast, it's just been too dammned cold and windy. We're gowing to continue to plant the same as normal, eventually things will pop.
We've been making a few deliveries these last few weeks. Slowly getting back into the harvest/delivery schedule. Market starts soon! May 7th, Hope we have produce:)
That's the news from here, hope to see you this weekend.


This is one of the very few dandelion relatives you should ever let in to your garden but it should be encouraged as it is a little gem. Frilly yellow flowers on dividing stems arise above attractive clumps of large, floppy, hairy leaves resembling rabbits ears.
Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.

Thomas Everard, from The Bransford Webbs Plant Company, has won a place on the IPPS European Regional Annual Conference, taking place this year in The Zundert Region of the Netherlands.
Thomas, 19, an apprentice at Bransford Webbs, who has ownership of his own area on the nursery, impressed the judging panel with both his personal and employer statement, earning him a well-deserved place at the conference.
The three day-long conference, titled ‘Built to Adapt’, starting on Wednesday 10th October, is based in Breda, Holland and offers a range of lectures and visits. The trips include visits to the largest landscape supplier in Europe, an innovative young plant producer and a tour of the production and research facilities of Redusol Systems, whilst talks cover a range of topics including Robot Learning Systems for Horticulture, a Global View of the Industry, New Breeding and the Use of Drones on Nurseries.
The 6 pack award, available every year to young horticulturists or those new to the industry, working in or studying commercial horticulture, offers the chance for six recipients to attend the conference. This gives the ‘6 packers’ a unique opportunity to meet other growers and industry experts, visit nurseries and see the latest practices and innovations in the industry first hand.
Karl O’Neill, Bransford Webbs Propagation and Technical Manager, and IPPS committee member, who will be delivering a talk at the conference on ‘Traceability in the Supply Chain’, commented “The IPPS conference is a fantastic opportunity for anyone within the industry, let alone young people new to it, to meet growers from across Europe, watch presentations on the latest industry topics, and visit excellent nurseries”.


The Orchard Project is looking for a home for our cider house and apple pressing HQ ahead of Autumn. We have had a wonderful two seasons in Herne Hill and have now outgrown the site, so the search begins.
What is Local Fox all About?
Our ambitious social enterprise produces Local Fox Cider and London Apple Juice entirely from apples grown in community orchards and gardens across the capital. Hundreds of volunteers have helped us to harvest, press and bottle over 9 tonnes of apple, learning about each step of the journey to create our delicious drinks from apple to bottle.
We share our cider and juice with those that share their apples with us and offer back money for tools, training and expertise to community groups so that these orchards can continue for years to come.
We have great plans for the years ahead and for us to make the most of this year’s coming harvest, we are looking to secure a London based site for our operations as soon as possible with:
- Ground floor site (700-1000 sq ft)
- Outside space (ideally)
- Water, electricity, and drainage
- Close to public transport
- Vehicle access
- A minimum of a 2-year lease
Celebrations of Orchard Project
This forms a part of The Orchard Project’s ‘Celebration of Orchards’ Project, which delivers an inspirational orchard restoration, education and events programme to celebrate and protect London’s orchard heritage. Over 3 years we are restoring veteran orchards across London involving local communities and volunteers who can learn the skills to help to care for their local orchard. We have worked with over 10,000 people to date! The project is predominately funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund.

Regional Aspects of Sectoral Digitalization: Problems and Prospects
Purpose: At present, high and sometimes record indicators have been achieved for the individual branches of agricultural production. Further intensive development of agriculture is due to the search for new ways to increase labor productivity and lower production costs which is the main aim of this research. Design/Methodology/Approach: The methodological basis served as a systematic approach, which ensured comprehensiveness and purposefulness. Analytical, abstract-logical, economic-statistical, monographic and experimental research methods were also used in this work to examine problems and prospects of sectoral digitalization. Findings: The agro-industrial complex demonstrates the growth of production indicators and is on the rise. The target indicators, laid down in the Food Security Doctrine, have already been achieved by many indices. To a large extent, it is due to a significant increase in the agro-industrial complex. Practical implications: A proposed platform that would ensure a breakthrough in further technical modernization of production, can be created only if the technologies are improved based on their digitalization and orientation towards a specific consumer. Originality/Value: The pin-point introduction of digital technologies in agricultural production confirms the high efficiency of the full innovative technical modernization. The proposed digital transformation of management in the agro-industrial complex of Russia is the value of this research with its originality compared to other ideas.


Ag Market View for Oct 27.23

Dec-23 meal prices surged to new contract highs trading above both the 50 and 100 week MA’s at $439. Next resistance is the July-23 high at $472.50. Today’s extended forecast models have pushed back beneficial rains for WC Brazil until the beginning of week 2 in November. All the models seem in agreement of heavy rains and the potential for flooding across southern Brazil. Forecasts for Argentina are mostly favorable while recent rains have improved planting conditions with 76% of the planted area rated normal/excellent, up from 60% previously. Ukraine’s soybean harvest has reached 4.5 mmt, while sunflower seed harvest is at 11.1 mmt, no YOY comparisons were available. Yesterday’s EIA data showed renewable diesel production fell 7% in July-23 to 214 mil. gallons following 4 straight months of record production. Despite the production decline it is still 66% above July-22. Combined biodiesel and renewable diesel production fell 5.6% last month to 386 mil. gallons. We’ll get a monthly capacity and feedstock usage updates from Aug-23 next Tuesday Oct. 31st. The meal market is really starting to feel the effect of Argentina’s drought reduced crop from earlier this year. Their meal exports are forecast to fall to just under 27 mmt, the lowest in decades. Their percentile of global trade is forecast to slip to 31% for 22/23, down from a peak of 49% just 6 years ago. US spot board crush margins surged another $.16 today to $2.51 bu. a 7 week high, while soybean meal PV jumped to 63%, the highest since May-2023.
Prices finished $.02 – $.03 higher with much of the day seemingly torn between following soybean higher or following wheat lower. It was an inside trading day for Dec-23 corn. Upside resistance continues to rest just above the market at the 50 day MA of $4.85 ½. Despite heavy rains across the US Midwest and a major snow event in the Northern plains, favorable harvest conditions in the far WCB along with southern IL, IN eastward for much of this past week should enable harvest progress to stay well ahead of the historical norm. Global tensions remain elevated. There were no new export announcements this AM. Recent rainfall did stimulate a little planting progress in Argentina with 22% of the crop seeded, up 2% from the previous week. The BAGE maintained their acreage forecast at 7.3 mil. HA. Ukraine has so far harvested 43.3 mmt of grain, up 40% from this point YA. Corn volume has reached 13.3 mmt, vs. only 4.5 mmt YA.
Prices were lower across all 3 classes with MGEX and Chicago $.03 – $.05 lower, while KC was down another $.08 – $.12. New 27 month lows for Dec-23 KC as spreads also hit new lows. Dec-23 KC premium to Chicago fell to $.67 ½, an 8 month low. Reports that the “Humanitarian Corridor” isn’t closed for Ukrainian Ag. exports pressured wheat while the need for additional weather premium supported both corn and soybeans. Ukraine stated that 51 vessels have entered the corridor since it became operational in August with 23 vessels currently stationed at Ukrainian ports awaiting to be loaded. Recent rains across the US southern plains will continue to chip away at drought conditions ahead of next week’s first crop condition report for this year’s winter crop. This afternoon’s COT report will likely show managed funds continue to extend their short position in KC wheat. According to the BAGE the Argentine wheat crop is 7% harvested while they also maintained a production forecast at 16.2 mmt, very near the USDA est. of 16.5 mmt. Demand news was quiet this week.

This morning’s soybean cancellations sent soybean prices sharply lower. January soybeans closed 30 ¼ cents lower at $14.66. March corn was 4 cents lower at $7.20 while March wheat settled 3 ¼ cents higher at $8.11 ¼.
The market was expecting the USDA to announce more soybean sales this morning at the usual 8:00am time. To the market’s surprise the USDA announced the cancellation of 300,000 Mts of US soybeans to China as well as 120,000 MTs to "unknown" destinations. They did announce a sale to 110,000 Mts of soybeans to another "unknown" destination at the same time. The recent soybean strength has been fueled mostly by strong export demand so this was an especially large shock to the market.
Corn futures were weak mainly following soybeans lower. Wheat was lower for most of the day but found strength into the close. It could be that wheat has had the largest selloff recently and this is just short covering. Concerns over central US dryness are also providing underlying support for wheat.
March corn found technical support at last week’s lows (see chart):
January soybeans settled below the 200 day moving average (grey line). Further setbacks may trigger sellstops to take us back toward the low. With January options expiring Friday we could see some larger price moves on position squaring. Larger put open interest is noted at the $14.00 strike while larger call option open interest is noted at the $15.00 strike.
Wednesday we will see ethanol production as well as Informa’s 2013 acreage estimates. Friday will be the last trading day for January grain and oilseed options. We will be open on Christmas Eve until noon and closed Christmas Day. Markets will reopen on the 26th at their usual morning open-outcry times. We expect low volume and choppy trading over the next two weeks as many traders are out for vacation. If you have been waiting for a chance to price grain having hopeful orders above the market may not be a bad idea during this timeframe.

Karlovski Engineering Works (KMZ, Poltava region.), A leading Ukrainian manufacturer of elevator equipment, increased the power of three times, which will provide output for the storage of more than 3 million tons of grain annually. According companion.ua, reported by the director general of the controlling company of the investment company "Dragon Capital" Tomas Fiala. "Sometime in late 2011 bought the equipment and intellectual property rights of a bankrupt factory in the UK, where it was quite new American equipment, all brought in, and set it under a completely renovated one of the shops," — he said in an interview. "It took about a year or a little more, but as a result we have increased the capacity of this plant around three times and have already started to produce American dryers, silos and other equipment," — said T.Fiala. According to him, last year, CMH achieved the best result in its history.
"This year will also be a similar result," — said the head of the "Dragon Capital". He noted that the demand for the company‘s products is essential, although some problems have created a change in the order of registration of land, which is why some customers could not in time to make their plots. At the same time T.Fiala said that the new equipment is not heavily loaded. "To use it fully, we need about three years … We are leaders in the CIS, but we continue to invest, because the business is very interesting," — he said. The head of "Dragon Capital" adding that the company is still refrains from direct investments directly in agricultural production and in the processing of its asset is "Chumak". "This business is growing around 15% per year. And from the lowest level since the crisis — that was probably 2009-2010 — volumes have grown by 50% over three years," — said T.Fiala. Reference: Karlovski mashzavod also manufactures machines for the processing of agricultural products, including animal feed and sugar industry, grain elevators. According to the report for 2012, about 75% of the products sold in Ukraine. The company also supplies its products to Russia, Belarus, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Poland, the Baltic countries and the Middle East. Last year, the company produced 190 silos to Rs 108.53 million, of which sold for 183 109 560 000 UAH, which made up 59.7% and 56% in the total volume of production and sales. CMH in 2012, net income increased by 3.1 times — up to UAH 194.53 million, and its net profit amounted to USD 20.58 million, compared with a net loss a year earlier. Cyprus Dragon Capital Investments Limited owns 93.2386% of the shares.

Even though Californians voted against mandatory labelling of genetically modified foods (17 November, p 28), it is worth considering the details of a suitable system.
For a long time everything humans ate was “natural” food. Then came agriculture and animal husbandry, and we started to “modify” food by selective breeding. Then we discovered how to alter genes in the lab.
This suggests three label codes would suffice. GN (Genes Natural), SG (Selected Genes) and GM (Modified Genes). I believe that the proof of the pudding is in the eating, and I wish the GN-only fanatics the very best of luck.

Introducing another cooperative member we work closely with: Juan Bravo is part of Del Campo, an umbrella cooperative in Nicaragua with a membership of over 590 smallholder farmers who produce a wide range of products. The cooperative is striving to become as environmentally friendly as possible and has used recent funds to invest in solar energy, beekeeping, natural medicines and conservation projects. Juan Bravo is also President of the International Nut Cooperative, a majority shareholder of Liberation.
Continuing to introduce some of the valued network of cooperative members that Liberation works with, we would like to move from South America all the way across the globe to Asia, and more specifically the South Indian region of Kerala.
Fairtrade Alliance Kerala (FTAK) was formed in 2006 and currently has a network of close to 4,000 smallholder farmers in the region. The network actively promotes organic farming methods, gender equality and the legal and economic rights of smallholder farmers on a national level. FTAK have been working with them from the outset and are our main supplier of cashews. FTAK is also a member of the International Nut Coopertive, a majority shareholder of Liberation.
Now introducing Thomas Saviour Kalappurackal, first elected General Secretary of FTAK in 2017 and was recently re-elected in the AGM in January this year.
As a Community Interest Company, the farmers and cooperative members that we at Liberation work with are at the heart of our organisation. They are, afterall, the people that enable us to sell a fairtrade, ethical and delicious product! We therefore think it is important that not only our team but also our customers get an opportunity to meet some of the members. Over the next few weeks will be introducing a few of them.
Here we introduce Azgar Correa Periera.
Truly owned by farmers: already a majority shareholder, the INC have recently purchased even more of Liberation!
The International Nut Cooperative (INC) has been a shareholder of Liberation from its beginnings and we have developed a profound and enduring relationship with them, the strength and importance of which most recently withstood the test of the global pandemic last year. We are therefore very pleased to confirm that the International Nut Cooperative have recently bought further shares of Liberation. Farmers will now have an even more powerful voice in shaping the company.


In the winter (at least in Canada, and I would hazard, much of North America) it is really difficult to find good fresh produce! Greenhouses and local farms can only do so much in the way of providing our “5 to 10” servings of healthy vegetables and fruits.
Solution? Why not buy frozen? You may be surprised to learn that frozen vegetables have many benefits. They are always plentiful, they are relatively inexpensive, and they are a great source of nutrition, as most are flash frozen ( a process which is normally done just after harvesting, and means that the vital nutrients and healthy *stuff* are not lost, as they cold be if transported long distances to final destination for sale.
Frozen veggies afford us the choices that local producers cannot provide us with year round. Most grocery stores stock a wide variety of frozen fruit and vegetables which are simple to prepare, and cut down on waste. Because they are ready to serve, you will save yourself time and money in both preparation, as well as purchasing the part of the vegetable or fruit that are edible, as opposed to fresh, which wastes a great deal in peelings, stems, leaves..etc.
Nutritionally, frozen veggies and fruits are just as healthy as fresh! Only a tiny percentage of Vitamin C is lost during the blanching and flash freeze, and the rest of the nutrients are *locked in* It’s so easy to get the right amount of the good stuff in your diet when it is so readily available.
So, during the cold winter months, fear not the vegetable aisle – avoid it all together if you like and go straight to the frozen foods! There, you can stock up on your favorites (broccoli, corn, carrots, asparagus, beans, berries, mangoes…the list goes on and on!)
In the warm weather, please support your local farmers and produce growers by buying fresh local produce, but at this time of the year, frozen really is a great way to get your greens, and reds, and oranges, and yellows…and…


Perfect perennial with beautiful 'feathery' leaves.
In spring small greenish-white bell-shaped flowers are produced followed by small berries.
Ideal to grow in a shady spot on a shelf or bathroom.
Soak seeds in lukewarm water for 24 hours before sowing.
Sow in a propagator (20-25C) in pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover lightly with compost or vermiculite. Alternatively, seal in clear plastic bag to encourage humidity which is needed to aid germination.
Once seeds have germinated, remove from the propagator or bag and grow on until large enough to handle. Pot on into individual pots of your choice and grow in a semi-shaded spot in a warm room. Avoid growing directly above a radiator.

Last week I had the opportunity to visit Agritopia, one of the wonderful Agri-tourism places I visited as part of my Agritainment trip through Arizona!
Agritopia is an AGRIHOOD!
What, you may ask, IS an Agrihood!
That was my question; here’s what I discovered.
Agrihoods are communities designed around an urban farm environment. In the same way some communities are centered around a golf course or lake. Agrihoods have an urban farm – with community gardens, produce sharing – at their center. Agrihoods promote a strong sense of community and pride in being part of a community.
While there are at least a dozen projects across the country of farm-focused tracks where a whole new group of folks want to enjoy open spaces, verdant fields and fresh food, Agritopia was among the first.
Comprised of 450 residential lots along with commercial, agricultural, and open space tracts. it is aesthetically designed with tree-lined streets and pathways, making the entire project accessible to pedestrians. For AZ locals – its major connecting street within the community is , which arcs its way from Ray Road north and east to Higley Road.
And the beauty of this urban-farm development is that it is in close proximity to ASU Polytechnic (2 mi), Chandler-Gilbert Community College (2 mi), Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport (2 mi), Crossroads Park (1/2 mi), San Tan Village Regional Mall (1 mi), Mercy Gilbert Hospital (2 mi), and the award-winning Cosmo Dog Park (adjacent).
At least 16 of Agritopia’s 160 acres are certified organic farm land with row crops artichokes to zucchini, fruit trees include: citrus, nectarines, peaches, apples, olives and dates, and livestock includes chickens and sheep.
117 unit assisted and Independent Living Center is set to open this summer.
Crops from the farm is sold to both retail customers and restaurants, and at Gilbert Farmer’s Market on Saturday mornings, and at the Farm Stand.In that same location, across from The Coffee Shop, the farm operates a 24/ 7 self-service stand stocked with some of the best selling items. The farm also sells its produce to over 20 different restaurants, including Joe’s Farm Grill.


Spinach! And lettuce! From seeds! Proud.
I am way overidentified emotionally with my garden and will need years and years of therapy when it fails but until then I am taking every single victory as personally as I possibly can.
If you look at the pet pictures again I think you can see exactly how the kitterses seat exchange went down. The Bee's like, "Oh, actually yeah, I think I'd like to sit right there. Kthx. 'K, take my picture." All I know is that I was taking a picture of Violet and then the next thing I knew I was taking a picture of Bridget. And I didn't even have to refocus.
(Clover's face is so funny.)
They're all pretty cute. They love to be out in front with me when I'm messing around with m veggies. We have a few teensy green tomatoes, an eggplant flower, many pea flowers, four great big potato plants (and I'm supposed to put soil on their stems or something? Probably too late), and the cucumbers and squash look like they're starting to wake up a bit. I sowed more lettuce and spinach seeds a week or two ago, and they're starting to come up. Yeah, I'm pretty psyched.
We have another nice sunny day around here. That makes two in a row! Wow.

I wanted to pop in this afternoon and share with you a bouquet of flowers from our garden. Nature is a great teacher and if we pay attention, we learn that there is a time for planting, for growing, for blossoming, for harvesting and for resting. Most of the time in our hectic and busy lives, the last season is often neglected. However, it is the most important one for the success of all the other seasons. I learned the hard way this summer the importance of slowing down. With Fall approaching, my goal is to reserve some time for play every day and I really hope you do the same!

Clearcast® Herbicide is an effective and selective treatment solution for the control of floating, emergent and submersed aquatic weed species. Clearcast is the industry standard for cattail control. In addition to cattails, Clearcast is an excellent choice for selective control of invasive weeds such as watershield, water hyacinth and broad-spectrum control of a variety of pondweeds. Clearcast can be applied as a foliar, surface or injection spray and as well as a pre-emergent in ponds and lakes.
Better Control for Golf Course Aquatics
Its selectivity makes Clearcast ideal for aquatic areas used for fishing and other recreation activities, while minimal irrigation restrictions allow Clearcast to be applied in a large variety of aquatic environments, including golf course ponds and irrigation canals, and ditches.
Clearcast can help keep the water features on your course looking as good as your turf. Clearcast controls target floating, emergent and shoreline weeds, while leaving desirable plant species unaffected. When used as directed, Clearcast:
• Can be applied near and around desirable hardwood vegetation
• Provides true systemic activity killing the entire plant, including root system
• Allows for re-colonization of desirable species

March soybeans were down 9 cents late in the overnight session. China futures were down 0.6%. Malaysia palm oil futures were down 1.7%. Outside market forces look weak as a continued surge in energy prices is prompting concerns for global economic growth. A lower dollar is a partial offset. Continued unrest in the Middle East and North Africa helped to pressure the market overnight as traders see a risk of slower global economic growth as a negative demand factor. In addition, speculative long liquidation continues. The USDA Outlook Forum begins today and last through tomorrow afternoon. The USDA left their planted acreage outlook at 78 million acres for the 2011 season which is up from 77.4 million this past year. Ending stocks are projected at 160 million bushels which would be up slightly from 140 million this year but still considered tight ahead of the growing season. Production is expected at 3.345 billion bushels as compared with 3.329 billion last year. China's Commerce ministry believes that China March soybean imports will remain low at just 3.16 million tonnes which would be the lowest in one year and below the February estimate of 3.17 million tonnes. A lack of follow-through selling on the early break yesterday on the move to the lowest level since December 13th helped to turn the market back up. The market found support throughout the session to see a push moderately higher on the day into the close and a close near the highs of a 37 1/4 cent range. Ideas that the recent break was too far, too fast plus support from a lower US dollar and continued strength in energy prices helped support the turn higher. Higher trade in gold added to the positive tone. A break of as much as $1.71 off of the February 9th highs helped support the idea that the market is in a short-term oversold condition. South Korea bought 45,000 tonnes of meal. Traders see improving crop conditions and higher trade estimates out of South America due to recent better weather. Demand news this morning was slow and the monthly Census crush report showed January soybeans crushed at just 149.17 million bushels which was more than 2 million bushels below expectations.


A move by supermarket chain Tesco to increase the price it pays its egg suppliers – by an average of 4p/dozen – has been welcomed by the National Farmers Union (NFU).
There is has been a massive increase in the demand for cereals on the international market. This, in turn, is having a heavy impact on the price of animal feed. In fact, the latest figures from the NFU show that the price of feed has risen by 25% over the last year. Cost pressures for poultry farmers are set to increase even further.
The increase in animal feed prices has resulted in higher production costs for producers, and hence a higher price is asked for the product. This means that, at present, free-range poultry producers pay Â£160/tonne compared with Â£127/tonne this time last year.
â€œThe days of cheap food are rapidly coming to an end everywhere,” says NFU president Peter Kendall. “Tesco’s initiative on eggs is exactly what we would expect from a responsible retailer and we expect others now to follow their lead.â€
NFU poultry board chairman Charles Bourns added: â€œThis increase by Tesco is welcome. The cost of production is going up for poultry producers everywhere and this sends out the right signals.â€


4 September 2014
Australian Cane Farmers Association (ACFA) has welcomed the announcement made by the Federal Government outlining their plans to investigate competition concerns in the sugar industry.
The matter is to be referred to the Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport References Committee for inquiry, as moved by Senator Barry O’Sullivan earlier today, with the inquiry report due by 27 November 2014.
The developments follow the announcement by three large sugar traders/millers earlier this year of their resignation from Queensland Sugar Limited (QSL), due to take effect at the end of 2016.
ACFA Chairman, Don Murday, said that the deregulation of the Queensland sugar industry during the past decade has resulted in the market power of sugar millers eroding farmers’ position.
“There is a market imbalance in the industry, skewed against growers and eroding competition,” Mr. Murday said.
“With farmers exposed to world sugar prices, they rely on full price transparency and the ability to have a say over the marketing and pricing of their product, which, under long-term industry convention, they have a share.
“Cane farmers mostly supply regional monopoly millers and when they are unfairly treated can only turn to Government to insist on fair play.
“Australian competition legislation needs reinforcing in order to prevent small sellers of agricultural products from being held captive by processors. This matter affects many agricultural producers in various industries who look to Government to restore a commercial balance.
“ACFA is fully committed to assisting in the inquiry and look forward to the opportunity to do so,” Mr. Murday concluded.

|I have a small yard 17ft wide and 35ft long and I love to garden with trees,shrubs,flowers.herbs,vegtables. How can I fill it and look good -- there is a 2ft border along the edges I did last year and a small circle in the middle with a tree; it looks formal with edging aroung each bed but I put some plants in the grass area, a tree and a bush. I want to make it look like a garden on tv; I want to plant the yard very heavily -- what should I do?|
|It sounds like you are hoping to create what might best be called a "cottage garden", perhaps even a garden without any lawn at all. Remember that every garden takes on its own personality over time based on the gardener and on the growing conditions available. The best thing you can do overall is to improve your soil so it can support a healthy population of plants -- this will give you the most flexibility. Next, you should do some planning so that you have an underlying design to your plantings and select plants that can prosper in the planting conditions you have to offer.
I would suggest two books to help you get started. One is "Square Foot Gardening" by Mel Bartholomew ISBN 1-87857-340-2 and the other is "Gardening for Dummies" by Michael MacCaskey ISBN 1-56884-644-4. These will help you begin to learn to prepare your soil and how to grow all the various types of plants and give you some basic design ideas. Next, you may find additional books in the "Dummies" category helpful as you branch into specific areas of gardening. Finally, try to visit as many gardens as you can so that you can see real-life examples -- magazine shots are, after all, a frozen moment in time rather than a work in progress.
Enjoy your project!

Grain export inspections for the week ending June 4 didn’t hold a lot of bullish news, per USDA’s latest report, out Monday morning. Corn, soybeans and wheat all saw week-over-week declines, with soybeans landing at nearly half of the prior week’s tally. Sorghum continues to churn out positive numbers but is a secondary player in the grain export market.
Corn export inspections only saw a fractional week-over week decline, slipping to 43.3 million bushels and landing in the middle of trade estimates, which ranged between 31.5 million and 49.2 million bushels. Cumulative totals for the 2019/20 marketing year are at about three-fourths of the prior year’s pace, with 1.166 billion bushels.
Korea jumped to the No. 1 position for U.S. corn export inspections last week, with 9.3 million bushels. Japan, Mexico, Peru and Israel rounded out the top five.
Sorghum export inspections have performed strongly this marketing year, notching another 7.7 million bushels last week. Cumulative totals for the 2019/20 marketing year are more than double last year’s pace, with 138.4 million bushels. China continues to be the primary buyer, accounting for 100% of last week’s volume.
Soybean export inspections saw a lackluster pace last week, tumbling 47% lower week-over-week to land at 7.8 million bushels. That anemic total was also below all trade estimates, which ranged between 11.0 million and 22.0 million bushels. Cumulative totals for the 2019/20 marketing year are still maintaining a slim lead over last year’s pace, with 1.309 billion bushels.
Last week’s soybean export inspection volume was scattered across more than a dozen countries, with Japan emerging as the No. 1 destination, with 2.1 million bushels. Egypt, Mexico, Indonesia and Vietnam rounded out the top five. China accounted for just 236,000 bushels last week.
Wheat export inspections were also relatively disappointing last week, dropping 22% to 15.9 million bushels. Trade estimates expected better numbers, with individual guesses ranging between 14.7 million and 23.0 million bushels. A correct cumulative total for the 2019/20 marketing year was not made available in this week’s report.
China came in as the No. 1 destination for U.S. wheat export inspections last week, with 2.3 million bushels. Other top destinations included the Philippines, Nigeria, Guatemala and South Africa.

How and when to prune my Ocotillo
How and when to prune my Ocotillo so it gets fuller not bigger? It's located in an entry courtyard and I don't want it to get much taller.
To the best of my knowledge, ocotillo is not the kind of plant that responds well to pruning. If you cut the branches, you lose the flowers, and end up with tangled and unattractive growth, losing the qualities you originally planted it for. That being said, I believe you could cut branches off at ground level, if they get too long. According to reports, these plants get 6 - 10' tall in the garden, so if this is going to be way to big for your needs, you may want to move the ocotillo before it gets much bigger, and replace it with something that will mature to the size you want, rather than trying to force the ocotillo to stay small. This article discusses ocotillo, you might find it useful: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/cacti-succulents/ocotillo/ocotillo-plant.htm

In my excitement about joining the challenge community again, I completely left out some details yesterday.
I live in the Wairarapa, just north of Martinborough, with my husband Tim, and 19 year old autistic daughter Maddie. We moved from Wellington nearly 5 years ago to have enough space for Mads and her horses and me to have a decent go at growing vegetables.
The garden has had several iterations in those 5 years, as I attempted to figure out how to apply my permaculture learning, and deal with compacted clay soils. This winter, with some studying of Sarah the Gardeners amazing garden on her blog - I decided I needed more order, so I have slowly been building seperated garden beds and alot more wood chip paths.
This has helped me try to work out complicated bed rotation ideas, remembering what I have put where, and seperate the perenials from the annuals. The plan is for alot more flowers and some small fruit trees intergrated into the garden as well. I still have more beds to build as you can see by the sticks laid on the ground.
What I love about this challenge is the motivation of seeing what everyone else is up to, and how the gardens all develop - big and small.
Happy gardening everyone, I am looking forward to following your journey.


Adequate stocks position following increased arrivals from overseas markets also put pressure on pistachio prices.
Pistachio (hairati and peshawari) eased by Rs 10 to settle at Rs 800-900 and Rs 980-1,050 per kg, respectively.
Traders said sluggish demand from retailers and stockists against fresh arrivals, mainly led to a fall in pistachio prices in the wholesale dry fruit market here.
The following are today's quotations (per 40 kg): Almond (California) Rs 14,800 Almond (Gurbandi-new) Rs 7,300-8,000; Almond (Girdhi) Rs 3,500-4,200; Abjosh Afghani Rs 8,000-20,000.
Almond Kernel (California-new) Rs 500-550 per kg, Almond Kernel (Gurbandi-new) Rs 400-450 per kg.


There were a couple of pickups and a digger in the field across from us on Saturday. On Tuesday they came back and dug up holes in a few places, and then this machine started made some loud noises, and it started 'planting' the black drain tile (hose) in the ground. Izaac's happy because the riding mower is out of winter storage and he can 'drive' it again! The axle and front wheel still keep falling off, so it's going to sit a little longer (but the grass is really growing--so hopefully not too long!).
