Corn bulls are wondering just how high prices can climb on the heels of the soybean market. The bears are screaming that even though individual farmers are not talking about record yields, the US as a whole is still on track to break all previous production records for corn. If you remember it was back in 2009 that US farmers produced a record US crop of 13.151 billion bushels and prices in Sept of 2009 plummeted to $2.96^6 per bushel. I am certainly not calling for a repeat performance, but I do believe it is important to review and understand our history. Below are a few highlights and comparisons I think we need to consider:
- 2009 set a NEW record for US corn production at 13.151 billion bushels. This record still stands, but looks as if it could be beaten this year. The current USDA corn production total is estimated at 13.763 billion bushels.
- FWIW back in August of 2009 the USDA was projecting a crop of just 12.761 billion bushels, by Jan (the final report) that number jumped to 13.151 billion.
- Harvested acres in 2009 fell from 80 million in the Aug 2009 report down to 79.6 million acres. Meaning they only cut 400,000 from their Aug 2009 estimate. This time around there is talk the USDA could cut 2-3 million from their current harvested acreage estimate. This would still leaves us with 7-8 million more acres than in 2009.
- Planted acres were reported at 87 million in the August 2009 report. Final planted acres were adjusted down to 86.5 million. This year around we could be 10 million acres higher considering the current USDA estimate is that we planted 97.4 million corn acres.
- Yield estimate in the Aug 2009 report was at 159.5 bushels per acre, of which it eventually grew in size to 165.2 final yield estimate.
- Total corn usage was estimated at 12.875 billion back in Aug 2009 vs. a very similar 12.765 billion in the most recent Aug USDA report.
- Ending stocks were estimated at 1.621 billion in Aug of 2009 vs. the most recent USDA estimate of 1.837 billion. The big kicker and key to this entire puzzle is that "beginning stocks" in the Aug 2009 report were estimated at 1.720 billion bushels vs. just 719 million currently being estimated by the USDA. That means we had an extra 1 billion bushels in the pipeline compared to what we have available today. That makes a huge difference!
- Prices in return during Sept 2009 fell to $2.96^6.
The question is will the US corn crop get larger like it did in 2009? Will we collectively set a NEW record for production? Or will the yield setback even further while at the same time seeing major cuts in harvested acreage? We could obviously go either direction right now, but with a billion fewer bushels to rely on the trade is clearly more nervous. Producers should be looking to reduce just a little more new-crop risk on the rallies to insure profitability, but don't let the perma-bears talk you into selling out just yet. I am going to pull the trigger on another 5% fairly quickly, in an effort to get 70% priced/hedged. Remember, for most of us (with storage) we have at least another 12-months to market our remaining 30%. I am fairly confident we can be somewhat patient and selective with our efforts.

←This idea is to emphasize on minimum of human efforts and time required for the de-husking of grains. Here the grains are made to pass through the blades which are rotated at suitable speed. Then the grain falls on to a vibrator which helps in removing the husk.
This seed sowing machine works on the concept of string and plate to reduce the seeds and fertilizer wastage and to sow them at a certain depth which varies from crop to crop to achieve optimum yield. →
←Cutting of betel nut is required little more effort by hand and also time consuming. To over come this problem, an effort has been made to develop a machines. This device is simple in design, portable, weightless, low cost and easy to operate by unskilled person.

Chronic Monster XXL is a feminized photoperiod seed, meaning it will only produce female plants, and needs lighting adjustment to help it switch to flowering phase.
It is a mixture between indica and sativa. Because of many years of cross breeding different types of strains, pure indicas or sativas are almost impossible to be found. But strains like this provide the best of both worlds – strain that provides quick and big yields with amazing effects and overall potency.
This strain has an impressive family tree. Its first ancestors were Colombian, Mexican and Thai sativa, mixed with Afghani indica. Those are some of the original prude landraces, but sadly, unknown hybrids, that are found in many other strains. The final cross, that resulted in Chronic Monster XXL, contained Northern Light, Skunk x Northern Light and AK47.
The plant can be grown indoors or outdoors. Indoors, the flowering period ends after 8 to 9 weeks, and the plant can produce around 600 grams per square meter. Outdoors, the plant will finish the flowering phase around October, and it can produce up to 700 grams per plant. This is one of the larger yielding varieties. This medium height, not too dense, plant is the perfect combination of good yield and excellent quality. This strain does not respond well to topping. This strain needs extra attention to dry it thoroughly after harvest to maintain its subtle fragrance.
This strain has a subtle and gentle aroma and taste. But these beautiful, crystal covered buds, can contain up to 21 % of T and a medium amount of C. Its effects are more leaning towards indica, since it gives more of a “body high“, making you more tired. It can also stimulate appetite. It is more suitable for night time use.
This plant is popular for its combination of appearance and sweet smell. It grows a single huge central bud with few side branches. It is mild, developing a sweet smell while flowering.


The weather in Tuscany
The weather in Tuscany is generally very pleasant. Even during the winter months, the sun comes out, the coats can come off, and you can have an espresso sitting outside La Cantina. Some weather apps don’t always give a realistic picture of the weather in this area. Thanks to a difference in altitude, you need to wait and see how correct they are. We take it day by day and prefer to just enjoy it…
Agriturismo Anna-Rosa boasts a lovely swimming pool of 14 by 7 metres. The depth is a maximum of 1.35 metres. Diving is not allowed. From the pool there is a beautiful and stunning, panoramic view. There are sunbeds (2 per apartment) by the pool.
The swimming pool is open from May to October. If the weather permits, it may open sooner or close later in the season. The swimming pool is not heated and there is no supervision at the pool.
Food and drink
A holiday in Italy means enjoying good food and drink. To make your holiday even greater, on some nights a week you can join our pasta evening or to join our tasting on the communal terrace. (fee applies)
We don’t serve breakfast, but we do have a bread service from our local bakery. And if you are lucky with fresh eggs from our own chickens… Fresh bread and eggs every day… isn’t that delicious?
Agriturismo and our products
Anna-Rosa is an agriturismo, a farm estate that combines the agricultural business with tourist accommodation. Situated in the Agriturismo Anna-Rosa grounds (around 14 hectares in size) you will find a farmhouse, our private house and the swimming pool, olive groves and a small vineyard.
The most important agricultural activity of our agriturismo is olive oil production. Our olive groves contain various types of olives: Frantoiano, Leccino, Moraiolo, Maurino and Pendolino. These types produce a lot of good oil. The next olive harvest will take place in October / November 2023. After the harvest, the olives are cleaned as soon as possible and then pressed in a nearby communal frantoio (press). The sooner the olives are pressed after being harvested, the better the quality. Next, the olive oil is bottled and labelled. This is high-quality olive oil, obtained from the first so-called cold pressing.
In our small vineyard, we mainly grow Sangiovese grapes. From grape till bottle….
We round up our vineyard with surrounding farmers. This is how we get our own wine with label.
The driveway to the farm runs through olive trees and grapevines. Next to the farm are two new olive groves. A little further on lies our biggest olive grove and wood. You can take a walk across the estate, but we are also happy to give you a brief tour.
We love pets, but after careful consideration, we have decided not to allow pets at Anna-Rosa.

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
This is the original floating market, located about 90 km southwest of Bangkok in Ratchaburi Province. You need to set your alarm clock for this trip; the market starts about 6am and finishes about 12 midday. Most of the tourists arrive about 9am.
The market is about 140 years old, it was created in 1866 when King Rama IV ordered the building of a 32 km canal to join the Taachin and Mae Khlong rivers, about 200 smaller canals branched off this main canal, irrigating the whole area. For over a century local farmers have grown fruit and vegetables in the fertile soil and used the canals to take their produce ladened barges to market.
Nowadays the market has become a major tourist attraction and the majority of customers are tourists not locals, although fruit, vegetables and cooked food are still sold, the market has expanded considerably to sell just about anything. The usual price of boat hire is about 600 baht per hour.

In a video released on social media and reported by the operational command South, a Russian radar system can be seen exploding into a fireball. Shot from above, the radar system, positioned on the outskirts of a wooded area, bursts into flames after a successful Ukrainian strike, after which a plume of white smoke can be seen billowing from the remains. There are then two successive explosions, targeting military vehicles hidden in the forest. It comes as Russia claimed it was shipping up to 7,000 tonnes of grain per day from the southern region.
The Russian-controlled part of Zaporizhzhia is transporting up to 5,000 tonnes of grain per day by railway and between 1,500 and 2,000 tonnes per day by vehicle, Yevgeny Balitsky, the head of the Russian-installed administration there said on social media.
He said supplies should rise when the Russia-controlled Ukrainian port of Berdyansk on the Azov Sea starts handling grain soon.
“The issue is about to be resolved, and we will also start loading dry cargoes to Turkey. Farmers will be able to sell their grain to Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the Middle East, Egypt – the standard markets,” Mr Balitsky added.
Ukraine has accused Russia, the world’s largest wheat exporter, of stealing grain from territories that Russia’s army has seized since Moscow sent troops to Ukraine on February 24.
In July, Mr Balitsky said the Russian-controlled part of Zaporizhzhya had reached deals to sell grain to Iraq, Iran and Saudi Arabia.
The territory has harvested 1.5 million tonnes of grain, Mr Balitsky said on Saturday, adding it was yet to obtain fertilisers for the upcoming sowing season.
And two more ships carrying grain have left Ukraine’s Chornomorsk port, Turkey’s Defence Ministry said on Saturday, bringing the total number of vessels to leave Ukraine’s Black Sea ports under a UN-brokered grain export deal to 27.
The Zumrut Ana and MV Ocean S, which are authorised to depart on August 20, were loaded with 6,300 tonnes of sunflower oil and 25,000 tonnes of wheat respectively, the joint coordination centre set up to enable safe passage said in a statement.

Ukraine’s Sea Ports Authority said on Saturday three Ukrainian seaports had begun loading food onto seven ships, which would deliver 66,500 tonnes of wheat, corn and sunflower oil to consumers.
Ukraine’s grain exports have slumped since the start of the war because its Black Sea ports – a vital route for shipments – were closed, driving up global food prices and prompting fears of shortages in Africa and the Middle East.
At the end of July, three Black Sea ports were unblocked under a deal between Moscow and Kyiv, brokered by the United Nations and Turkey.
The Authority said on Facebook the port of Chornomorsk had moored the bulk carriers Andan Toplak, Filyoz and Maranta, while Odessa port had begun loading the Ganosaya and Kubrosli Y.

First off… I just want to apologise for my absence… I’d get a note from my mum but she would just laugh at me. Oh well, I suppose I’ll just have to wing it.
After working solid for 10 days at work with no day off I was in no position to do a lot in the garden. Then, after that I went and helped my brother-in-law with a HUGE garden job. More on that in another post. But that explains my 2 week silence… It doesn’t excuse it… But you at least know why.
Anyway… That is history. Moving on to this morning.
I finally get to spend some time in my own garden. First off I had to cut the grass. No… I didn’t take a pic of how bad it was… No cutting for 3 weeks will put a LOT of growth on my grass. Oh how embarrassing! I also edged and did a little weeding. Thankfully none of the normal weeds had established themselves. There is something to be said for regular weeding!
In the 3 weeks I seem to have missed so much!
The Echinacea I got from BloominBootiful finally put out some flowers, very nice to see. It’s a little shaded by the Cinerarea though… Next year I will trim that back to give the other plant a little more light.
My Hydrangea is flowering. It has very nice pink hue. This must mean my soil is lacking in aluminium or is more acidic. I prefer pinks to blues so I am very happy with this. If it starts to move to a blue colour I will have to do something about it. But for now I’m all good.
And finally my Coreopsis… Wow… It has NEVER had a good a show as this. It’s really settled into its new home. It’s done so well it’s actually pushed out a lavender!
I think I will give it at least one more year here before I split it. Let it get some good root structure in.
And the last part.
I am SO happy about this bit. When I last looked in my veg plot it wasn’t doing much. When I looked today all the potato plants had fallen over, obviously ready to be harvested.
SO I cleared off all the tops and pulled the bags out.
On the left is what I got from the first bag alone… On the right is what I got out of all 5!
In all about 10-15 pounds of potatoes. Not bad, eh? I have to say that I was VERY happy with it. Ok, it won’t get me through the winter or anything but it wasn’t a failure at all.
The only issue I had was one bag that had a couple of potatoes with some kind of… scab? on them. Should I throw them out? They didn’t look bad as such. It’s also only on the surface. I scratched off the skin and they were fine underneath.
I did learn a few other things from this… For a start there was a marked difference with the bags that had the potatoes that I cut in half and the ones that were planted whole. Also… 2 potatoes did NOT use up all the bags potential. I think I will put in 3 or 4 next time. There was a lot of unused room in there.
Also, my neighbour thinks that the fact that I didn’t water them regularly affected the crop. I could have far more if I had. Oh well, something to note for next time.
Also my Rhubarb is still growing well. Looking good for cropping next year. I swear those stems get redder by the day!
I also now have tomatoes coming along. last time I checked on them there was only flowers, now I have fruit! Awesome. B-)
And now a couple of little accidents I have to admit to.
Parsnips? I planted a row of them LONG ago but I didn’t see any come up. I was clearing a few weeds out of the veg plot and mistook this for a weed. *sigh*.
Next… While pulling out other weeds I managed to pull these up too. Well, at least I will have a couple of onions for tonight’s tea!
And with that…. I’m done. I’ll do a write-up of what I did at my Brother-in-law’s and post that over the weekend. It may have to be a couple of posts… I don’t know.
Have a great weekend, everyone! B-)

Daffodils - Hardy, Easy Growing Perennials
Daffodils are early spring-blooming perennials that return every year. They multiply, and unlike annuals, daffodil plants live for decades. They must be planted deep enough beneath the soil's surface so winter temperatures won't freeze these perennial bulbs. The blooms are yellow in color and super hardy in zones 3-9, which is a very hardy perennial plant. Daffodils work well in most soil also, and they multiply excellent.
Top 5 Perennials For Starter Gardens
You are starting your flower garden. What an exciting time! For beginners, you may have some questions. After all, you want your garden to be successful! Let's go over a few lovely perennial choices that are sustainable and make an attractive addition to your flowerbeds.
Virginia Blue Bells
One fabulous thing about Virginia Blue Bells is that they thrive in shaded, moist environments.
They have a beautiful blue hue. They are trumpet-shaped and grow in clusters at the tips of the stalks. They flower in the spring, and the blooms last roughly three weeks in total. Butterflies most frequently pollinate them. If you are a butterfly lover, this is even more motivation to add them to your garden!
Day lily plants will add glorious color to your garden during midsummer. They start as bulbs and grow into stunning tall stalks with brilliant flowers; Daylilies are sun lovers and grow best in whole sun areas. A wonderful thing about day lily plants is their resilience. While they don't like drought, they can survive it. But they often thrive in damp environments. They are poor maintenance. Due to their variety, you can find a day lily plant with the perfect height and color for your garden!
Coneflowers, or Echinacea, are excellent additions to any starter garden. They come in soft hues of whites, pinks, and oranges and grow on long stalks. It is a plant native to North America, making it very easy to maintain. These lovely blooms attract lots of wildlife, such as butterflies, bees, and even songbirds! They are also drought-resistant and can thrive very well in the heat.
Don't be discouraged if you see no blooms in the first year, as they can take roughly two years to flower.
The Dutchman's Breeches is a wonderfully unique plant. It has other names you may be familiar with, such as the bleeding heart or little blue staggers. These plants have long, curved and drooping blooms ranging from white to pink. It looks like a pair of hanging pants or a heart, hence the names for the plant. The base is very fern-like in appearance. They sprout in early spring; They thrive in rich soils and moist environments. They make a charming addition to any flower garden with their attractive color and shape.
Red Cardinal Flower
These deep red blooms flower in the late summer months. If you wanted a flower to attract hummingbirds, this is your go-to. They love them! These flowers do particularly well in very moist soils. To make sure they are as vivid and lovely as possible, water them thoroughly and frequently. It is best to not plant on overly saturated areas or embankments, as they have shallow roots and can wash out easily. Native to North America, the red cardinal flower will provide great beauty in the later months.
As you can see, these five plants are great starts in any garden. They are durable and easy on the eyes. They also bloom in various seasons, so you are always sure to have some color in your garden! Happy planting!

Several former Plant Health Care, Inc. sales, marketing and business professionals have joined LebanonTurf as part of its acquisition of PHC’s U.S. Horticultural and Turf division, according to Dave Heegard, general manager of LebanonTurf.
Sales representatives Allen Ball, Kevin Spiller and Stephen Camp will reinforce LebanonTurf’s national coverage for bionutritional products. In addition, Cheryl Eberle joins LebanonTurf’s marketing team and Dr. Michael Kernan, research and development scientist, will add his experience to the company’s technical support group.
Lebanon Seaboard Corp., parent company of LebanonTurf, earlier announced the acquisition of the company widely regarded as a pioneer among manufacturers of biologically based products for the green industry. Among other areas, PHC is highly respected for its research applied to fertility products incorporating beneficial microbes, mycorrhizal fungi and other soil nutrients.
The acquisition reinforces LebanonTurf’s commitment to the growing field ofbiological plant nutrition and complements the 2009 acquisition of Novozymes’ turf and landscape business, including the Roots products and technologies; and its 2008 acquisition of theEmerald Isle line of foliar and granular fertilizer products.
Heegard said the addition of the PHC professionals expands LebanonTurf’s biofertility offering beyond turf and lawn care into arborist and horticultural segments. “The addition of PHC brands, along with the experience and knowledge these individuals represent, adds to our ability to offer comprehensive solutions to distributors and end-users.”
Terms of the agreement between privately held Lebanon Seaboard, whose LebanonTurf division focuses on the professional turf industry; and PHC, a public company with global headquarters in Pittsburgh were not disclosed.

The garden growth is really picking up since last weekend when I posted the most recent Blog! The boxes this week have some real weight to them. I feel safe in saying, “We’re BACK!” The CSA Boxes contain Yukon Gold potatoes, onions, red garden beets, cabbage, some zucchini, and abundant amounts of cukes and patty pan squash.
The cabbages are quite small as they were stunted by the rain. Perhaps they next wave will be larger. Then again, many members may prefer a smaller head of cabbage.
Be sure to read about beets on the web site. If you have cooked them before, you know how badly they can stain. And the word for how they “stain” inside the body is called “Beeturia.” While you are on the above link, you can also learn about cucumbers. They are actually a fruit and not a vegetable! We lost the cauliflower, beans, okra, rutabaga, and melons in the rains, but we have high hopes for the rest of the vegetables you will see on this Vegetable Identification page.


Our tallest, darkest romaine, Coastal Star Organic performs brilliantly in spring and fall, and even in winter with some protection from hard frost. This romaine is early maturing with a high resistance to corky root. Heads are tightly packed around blanched tender hearts, and have an overall pleasant lettuce flavour. Growth is very upright on plants that average around 30cm (12″) tall. Even the outer wrapper leaves are held off the ground, so there no bottom rot issues. The dark colour of Coastal Star is thought to represent a more nutritious lettuce than the paler romaines like Plato II.
Matures in 65 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)

Improved weather throughout California and Arizona has yet to impact production as ground temperatures remain slightly below optimal. Forecasts call for continued warming in the Desert which will allow all plants to get back to a normal growth pattern. Expect improved production moving forward with a return of flexible pricing. Quality will remain varied with a wide range in color and texture with an increasing degree of discoloration due to epidermal blister and peel.
Romaine and Romaine Hearts Production has slowed due to seasonal Freezing overnight temperatures last week which pushed soil temperatures to seasonal lows. Improved conditions will allow for better growth heading into the weekend. Many growers will begin to strip heavy blistered product in the field which could allow for better production of hearts although labor continues to be an issue which could inhibit any increases. Either way expect much heavier discoloration on all leaf lettuce , especially carton Romaine while Hearts may be slightly less affected.
Red leaf, Green leaf and Boston Demand on Leaf continues to lag behind Romaine. Color and Texture will be affected as epidermal peel and discoloration has become more evident .
Demand remains steady. Movement has been good and markets will remain at current trading levels for the remainder of the week. Availability out of Santa Maria, Oxnard and the Desert growing regions.
Thornless production continues mostly from the South Coast with predominantly large sizes. Limited supplies in the Desert as most are transferred from Coastal production areas , significantly increasing cost. Most areas have seen moderate to heavy frost last week which has resulted in increased epidermal scarring, peel and discoloration, impacting overall quality although improving edibility.
The market has trended upwards this week. Lighter production out of California, Arizona and Mexico is expected all week. The Santa Maria region continues to work through quality issues due to the rain that occurred a couple of weeks ago. Quality should improve out of there next week.
Demand exceeds and will continue in this manner for the remainder of the week. As we move into next week with temperatures in the growing regions returning back to normal there should be better availability and a slight reprieve in pricing.
Northern California production has slowed with heavy rains and freezing overnight temperatures degrading quality rapidly as the season comes to an end. Mexico supplies remain extremely light although weather is expected to improve over the next couple weeks which should allow for better supplies by the end of the month.
Mexico is still lagging behind production although there continues to be signs of improvement as the weather has been favorable. Labor continues to be an issue but we anticipate better supplies next week with prices expected to ease shortly thereafter . Overall quality will be varied as most growers deal with the effects of last week’s cold temperatures .
Prices remain elevated. West Coast volume is low due to frequent rain and low temperatures. Overall production will begin to increase slightly in the last week of January. Supplies out of Florida and Mexico remain steady.
Prices are inching up. Mexican production is past its peak; supplies are tightening. Quality is very good: green shoulders are an occasional issue.
The market is firming up. Mexican supplies are tighter this week. Quality is very good: broken fruit is a sporadic problem caused by recent temperature fluctuations.
The market is climbing. Mexican volume has dipped; supplies will increase in late January when spring production ramps up. Import shipments are experiencing vessel delays and unloading challenges. Expect volume to rise the week of January 17. Quality is very good with good flavor.
Import Stone Fruit is starting this week. Vessel will begin arriving this week and should have product available to load in LA by Thursday or Friday. After this arrival the next west coast vessel is scheduled to arrive the week of 1/18. White Peaches and nectarines will be available in volume fill and tray pack towards the end of next week. Red and black plums are finished for the season until late February
Light supplies reported across the country and we are currently in a severe demand exceeds supply scenario. California supplies diminished drastically over the holidays and offshore fruit had not caught up. Offshore supplies have also been affected by transportation issues and port delays, adding to the severe drop off in supplies. Reds, greens and blacks have all been affected. More grape vessels are expected to arrive next week and and increase in arrivals are expected shortly after, which will certainly help. As expected, pricing is highly elevated on all varieties as buyers scramble for whatever fruit is available. Markets will likely begin to settle upon the arrival of more offshore fruit in the coming weeks.
Steady supplies of navels coming out of California. Quality has been very nice with very few issues to report industry wide. Excellent color and brix and product is holding up well. More small fruit available this week, and we expect more large fruit to come in towards the latter half of the month. Currently sizing is peaking on 88 and 113 count fruit. We expect similar conditions for the coming weeks.
Steady markets continue this week on all sizes of lemons. California lemons are peaking on 115 and 140 count sizes. Small sizes are more limited this week. Some product is still coming out of Texas, although the majority of supplies are out of California. Quality is very nice with very few issues to report.
Increased demand this week on limes and pricing has strengthened significantly as a result. Sizing is peaking on 175 and 200 count fruit. Quality has been improving, although some reports of lighter color and scarring have been reported. Better availability on small fruit is expected in the coming weeks. Markets will likely remain strong as more rain is in the forecast for production areas over the next two weeks.
We are starting to hear rumblings of Mexico coming on with onions…will report more as it happens. The northwest is just plodding along and believe it or not, this trucking deal is holding the market down where it is and will continue to do so till the end.
Here comes Corborca…harvest on organics has started this week and conventional won’t be far behind. Chains are lining ads up for 28/1’s for the week of the 24 th of January with prices being quoted as low as $35.00. The weather is the big factor now in covering the demand for 28’s. Long range forecast is saying the temps will be conducive to handle the volume.
Things are looking steady. Honduras is in its peak and Guatemala is past its peak keeping volume and quality pretty stable. Sizes from Honduras are peaking on 9s jbo 9s. Demand is steady and lazy and port of entry issues along with trucking remains an issue. Food service demand looks like it will continue to struggle with COVID limiting restaurants and cruise ships along with vacation travel and even schools. However when the Omicron spike passes these venues could improve. No retail promotions are in place. All this adds up to steady pricing with perhaps increased discounting on slower trading days.
Supplies continue to be light supplies and this does not seem to be changing. Honduras is becoming the main production area with sizes running heavy to 5s and jbo 5s. Prices have been elevated for the entire deal and Mexico as a more cost effective alternative is no longer producing. Demand is restricted by high prices and all the issues discussed above. We see little price change ahead but some dealing on peaking sizes and /or fair quality.
OG Broccoli & Cauliflower
Cauliflower and Broccoli Production has slowed overall with a much cooler weather pattern the past couple weeks. While markets continue to surge higher, better production is expected by the end of next week which should help ease prices. Quality from the desert remains good.
Production has been impacted due to significant rain along the coast and much cooler temperatures. Limited production in the desert and Mexico have helped supplement but overall supplies remain light. Improved weather forecast should help growers overall production toward the end of the month.
OG Herbs & Bunch Greens
Availability has tightened in recent weeks with escalated pricing. Supplies are expected to improve next week after growers have been dealing with freezing temperatures slowing growth. and delaying harvest.
OG Root Vegetables
Carrot Production has slowed with much cooler and wet weather this week interrupting production . Continue to plan ahead to get full coverage. Improved weather should help by the end of the month.
OG Leaf and Iceberg Lettuce
Leaf, Iceberg & Romaine Romaine and Romaine Heart production slowed with Heavy Frost last weekend as well as impacted quality with much heavier epidermal peel and blister as well as increased discoloration. Green and Red leaf Production has slowed due to cold overnight temperatures also resulting in increased epidermal peel and discoloration. . Weather appears to be improving which will help production but will increase Rib Discoloration due to Epidermal on Arrival
Lemons, Oranges, Limes and Grapefruit Strong demand throughout the entire Citrus category due to strong retail sales and revived foodservice activity. Mexico Lemon crop has slowed with continued heavy Choice fruit while California crop remains mostly Fancy grades although recent rains delayed harvest , sizing will be heaviest towards the larger sizes which will push smaller , retail bag size prices higher. Lime quality and supplies remain inconsistent. Navel production is expected to again pick up after weather delayed harvest the past couple weeks. The crop remains strong and quality has benefited although sizing has begun to lean towards larger sizes , pushing the high demand, smaller size prices higher. Clementines have resumed with moderate supplies although reduced yields, higher pricing is expected all season .Production of Caras and Blood Oranges have begun to show signs of improvement.

Best String Trimmer Line Buyers Guide
Before buying the best weed cutter line for your needs, you have to consider various vital factors. Considering these factors will ensure that you get a line that suits the vegetation in your yard or lawn. These factors include
Trimmer Line Styles
The weed cutter lines classify into a few main categories, with each of them having specific characteristics. They include:
Round Trimmer Line
Did you get a trimmer to cut grass edges and eliminate weeds from your property? Or does your yard contain a small number of weeds that are relatively simple to cut? Well, the round trimmer lines are suitable for your needs. The round trimmer line is the standard and basic shape, which won’t get damaged due to overuse. Thus, the round trimmer lines are suitable for small and residential lawn care projects. More so, these types of lines are less prone to damage.
Multi-sided Trimmer Line
Do you have a big yard, with thick weeds, or do you perhaps need a trimmer that can work on a commercial project? Well, the multi-sided trimmer lines are suitable for medium-sized lawn jobs. More so, the multi-sided trimmer lines come with several sides, which will provide clean-cut results each time. These lines are most often available in the shape of a star, square or pentagon. Furthermore, these trimmer lines work well to slice through thick weeds efficiently. That said, the multi-sided trimmer lines are prone to breaking, especially when exposed to extreme abrasive conditions such as stony areas.
Serrated Trimmer line
The serrated trimmer lines are suitable for people who have large properties with lots of weeds. Furthermore, these types of trimmers are also ideal for people who want a string trimmer which is ideal for commercial purposes. The serrated trimmer lines are suitable for large scale jobs such as cutting weeds. Usually, they consist of edges that are sharp like a knife, and this works well to cut through grass and thick brush. These types of trimmer also have more cutting power and are suitable for medium to large cutting jobs.
Twisted Trimmer Line
If your property experiences lots of thick weeds, then consider going for a trimmer with a rugged design. The twisted trimmer line is suitable for heavy-duty applications, such as yards with thick weeds. Besides that, the trimmer line provides additional strength, efficiency and can reduce noise levels. It is considered as a significant improvement to the rounded types and will provide improved durability as well. This trimmer line will also produce a small amount of vibration, while also ensuring a cleaner cut.
Trimmer lines classify into many categories when it comes to line diameter and weight. A large diameter will provide improved cutting power and durability when cutting weeds or grass. A lightweight string trimmer is only suitable for use in places where there is a small amount of weeds. That said, each trimmer can only accommodate a specific line diameter size. The common line diameter sizes include:
Light work – suitable for residential areas with large lawns and lighter weeds
Medium work – ideal for large back, front yards or gardens that have thick weeds
Heavy work – ideal for industrial landscaping, golf courses and various other types of areas that require trimming such as golf courses
Light-medium work: 0.060 inches – 0.085 inches
Medium-heavy work: 0.080 inches – 0.101 inches
Very heavy work: 0.110+ inches
An essential aspect of any good string trimmer should be the quality of material used to make the line. In most cases, the high-quality lines are made using various types of materials including polyester, vinyl and more. Choose a material that is highly durable, and can provide years of reliable performance when cutting. Also, go for a string trimmer material that offers exceptional performance regardless of the nature of the terrain. The trimmer should be powerful enough to cut through thick grass, even when the sun is boiling hot. The line should also be efficient enough to cut when the grass is wet.

Court Upholds RR Alfalfa Injunction
A U.S. appeals court upheld an injunction blocking the sale of Monsanto’s Roundup Ready alfalfa seed. What’s the holdup and how long will it be?
The sale will be blocked until USDA finalizes research on the environmental impact of the biotech seed on nearby crops. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied the company’s request for a rehearing of its appeal and said it would accept no more petitions for rehearing in the case which began three years ago, according to Feedstuffs newsletter.
The permanent injunction prevents further planting until USDA completes an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which is anticipated by fall 2009.
Monsanto is "disappointed" with the decision and hasn’t ruled out asking the Supreme Court to review the case, according to media reports.
The suit was originally brought against USDA. Monsanto and Forage Genetics intervened in the suit. The Ninth Circuit affirmed the lower court’s ruling, but the intervenors appealed.
The decision upholds District Court Judge Charles Breyer’s earlier ruling of May 2007. Breyer found that USDA had not addressed concerns that Roundup Ready alfalfa would contaminate conventional and organic alfalfa. The Ninth Circuit decision affirmed that USDA violated national environmental laws by approving genetically modified alfalfa without a full EIS.
The Center for Food Safety initiated the legal action in February 2006, representing itself and its co-plaintiffs in the suit: WORC, Dakota Resource Council, National Family Farm Coalition, Sierra Club, Beyond Pesticides, Cornucopia Institute, Trask Family Seeds, and Geertson Seed Farms.

We made a green house over our two 3 ft raised garden beds (beds used for putting our dog poo in along with goats poo and logs and dirt). Grew the best green tomatoes. So we thought to try green. We had three seeds that took off. Green house beds are like 5’x10’ x 2 with 1.5’ isle down the middle. Two plants in one bed and one plant in the other side.
My questionis this. They’re growing too big for the dome green house and growing against the plastics. I tie down. Looks like a circus tent with all the strings.
When is it okay to remove some of the big leafs and how much longer will it take to start budding? I’m assuming I have females.
It looks crazy but I could try to get pictures to explain my delimina.
Thank you again for the add and look forward to some expert advise.

I was rummaging around my runner beans, when I stumbled across an old, mottled, yellow looking bean at the bottom of the stem. It was dried up and withered, and the beans inside were protruding through the skin.
Experienced gardeners will already know that the runner bean in question was simply carrying beans for next year; I did not. I cracked open the shell to find pink and black, glossy beans staring up at me. I felt as astonished as Jack with his magic beans! They now sit in pride of place on the Welsh dresser.


The Japanese fashion chain decided to “lend” space for the Association of High Quality Vietnamese Products to organize a market to sell agricultural products.
This weekend, from October 22-24 at Van Hanh Mall (District 10, Ho Chi Minh City), more than a dozen stalls of Vietnamese agricultural products are arranged in the space in front of Uniqlo store. The stalls sell a variety of fresh fruits such as strawberries, avocado, grapefruit to processed foods such as dried vegetables, rice paper, nectarine and fish sauce.
Mr. Osamu Ikezoe, General Director of Uniqlo Vietnam, said that this activity is “kind green market”, the first time cooperating with the Association of High Quality Vietnamese Products. In addition to the booths at Van Hanh Mall, the Japanese fashion retail chain also arranged space to display and introduce agricultural products at stores in Dong Khoi and Vincom Pham Ngoc Thach.
Depending on the actual conditions of each store, the chain said that it will arrange to support space for exhibition or sale of agricultural products, in order to take advantage of the flow of visitors to shop for clothes. The program aims to continue affirming a long-term commitment to Vietnam, not only doing business but also supporting the local community.

Ms. Vu Kim Hanh, President of the Association of High Quality Vietnamese Products, said that this fair has been held 260 times after 5 years of construction. However, this is the first time cooperating with a world famous brand like Uniqlo. According to her, it is an opportunity for Vietnamese agricultural products to get closer to this fashion chain’s high-income customers.
After the end of the first market, the two sides will evaluate the reaction of customers to continue maintaining cooperation. The association hopes to organize with Uniqlo throughout the weekends in the next 3 months, at suitable flexible locations.
“Hopefully, the cooperation activities between the two sides will open up a great opportunity for small and medium enterprises to contact more new customers, and at the same time be a good first step for a long-term cooperation process. together to make a positive contribution to society as well as the community,” said Ms. Hanh.

Our future is everyone’s future
We believe our business can only grow if we ensure to carry it out in a sustainable way
Therefore, in our global industry, we have the responsibility to contribute to global challenges
- keep diversity alive
- help people to stay safe
- strive for fair labor conditions
So Syngenta Flowers has set out to create
- peace-of-mind offers to let consumers enjoy the beauty of flowers
- trustful business with our customers
- healthy and safe work environment for our people
We, and before us, our legacy companies Fischer, Goldsmith and S&G have invested in what we believe to be the right things to do:
- standards for sustainable production
- phytosanitary trainings and people development programs
- recycling, water and waste efficiency programs
- workers’ councils …
All processes we have set up allow us to scale our offers and solutions to serve our customers in a reliable and sustainable way, while preserving the environment and preparing the future.
In 2015, all our efforts so far have been recognized with the Global G.A.P. & GRASP certifications for all our EAME sites.
We don’t intend to stop here.
We are committed to foster a long term approach to the sustainable experience of plants. But we cannot do it alone.
We would love to share with you our intent and passion for plants to shape and ensure the future of our industry.
Together we will revolutionize the plants experience.
Here’s what Syngenta is doing about it
GLOBALG.A.P. and GRASP
Syngenta Flowers produces quality seeds, cuttings and young plants using sustainable and responsible production methods at all its supply sites worldwide. It has achieved GLOBALG.A.P. / GRASP on many of its supply sites and is working towards 100%
Every year we produce millions of flowers as seeds, cuttings, young plants or finished plants. Our value chain covers the globe through a network of 32 farms, of which we own one-third. So far, we’ve achieved certification in Global Good Agricultural Practice through GLOBALG.A.P. at many locations in our network producing seeds and cuttings, and at rooting stations and young plant operations. The rest of the farms in our network will follow soon.
Independent certification by GLOBALG.A.P. means our farms are recognized as safe, sustainable, reliable and environmentally efficient. Standards cover the entire production process from management of our sites, to caring for growing material, dealing responsibly with pests, treating waste and water appropriately, minimizing environmental impacts, and the traceability of our plants.
For consumers, these standards give confidence that they are buying plants from producers who are looking after tomorrow by producing responsibly and ethically today. For retailers and distributors, the standards bring peace of mind about plant quality, people and the environment. Healthy, reliable plants support profitability.
In addition to GLOBALG.A.P., we are also protecting the 2,000 workers at our sites by achieving certification covering their health, safety, education and welfare through GRASP (GLOBALG.A.P. Risk Assessment on Social Practices).
How are we doing it?
We have created a global network of farm leaders – one team focused on helping each other. The process begins with self-assessments and advice from an auditor. Individual farms then make the necessary improvements and independent auditors carry out the final assessment. Farms benefit in many ways: increased training in health and safety or farming techniques; programs that minimize environmental impacts and reduce inputs like water; and improvements for workers such as a canteen on site and nursery care for workers’ children.
What are GLOBALG.A.P. and GRASP?
The GLOBALG.A.P organization is not-for-profit, has a global reach and offers international accreditation that allows us to work with a number of retailers. It is based upon a scientific approach, and takes into account the perspectives of producers, retailers and industry practice. This makes its standards relevant and ‘living’. Its programs include training for smallholders and GRASP standards are very close to those of the Fair Labor Association.
The Good Growth Plan
We’re facing our toughest challenge. Every day, our planet wakes with 200,000 more mouths to feed, farmland lost to erosion and increased pressure on our natural resources. Many people who produce the world’s food are living in poverty, while biodiversity is disappearing fast. We have only one planet, and we’re using its resources 50 per cent faster than it can take. What we’re asking it to provide is simply not sustainable. Something needs to change.
The Good Growth Plan is Syngenta’s commitment to make a measurable contribution by 2020. We are setting ourselves six specific targets related to improving resource efficiency, rejuvenating ecosystems and revitalising rural communities.

Sunflower is an important crop in the European Union.
It produces edible seeds, oil and animal feed.
Romania is the European Union's top sunflower producer. The country is followed by Bulgaria, Hungary, and France.
Sunflowers have deep rooting system that can take up nutrients missed by the previous crops.
That means, sunflowers help to prevent leaching and reduce groundwater pollution.
And a field of sunflowers is beautiful to look at!
We need your help for our research
Take part in our social media campaign.
Collect pictures of sunflowers in bloom from around your area.
You will support our research.
- Take a picture of flowering sunflower
- Tweet it using the hashtag #YellowFlowersEU
- When posting, tag your location (Twitter help centre)
Deadline: 15 August 2019
What we do with your pictures
Your pictures support EU agriculture.
Our scientists will collect the location and timing of flowering from your pictures. Your data then helps to improve the information based on Copernicus satellite observations.
Your 'Citizen Science' input will help to improve crop models and forecasts of crop production across the European Union.
The flowering sunflower project links to the H2020 funded project LandSense.
The LandSense Citizen Observatory empowers people to track and report on their environment.
This campaign uses an inclusive method of data gathering for ground-based evidence: 'crowd-sourced' citizens' data that supports observations from Europe’s satellites.
The method was sucessfuly piloted last year with a focus on flowering rapeseed.
There was great feedback from citizens across the European Union.
Pictures fom more than 60 people allowed the create a map of when rapeseed was flowering across Europe: The earliest flowering was reported in the south of France and the latest date was reported in Lithuania. This confirms a gradient from the warmer south to the colder north.
Unfortunately, in 2018 drought conditions in central and northern Europe caused considerable reductions in rapeseed production.
As confirmed by the #YellowFlowersEU campaign, the warmer and dry weather led to earlier and shorter flowering of rapeseed which negatively impacting yields.

Summerland Mayor Heads to UBCM
Summerland Mayor Janice Perrino is in Victoria this week at the Union of BC Municipalities convention.
She hopes to talk with the agricultural minister about Summerland's future.
"We need to know how to move forward in our strategic planning as far as growth of the town. As you know we try to grow from the core of the town out so we're just trying to get how they want us to proceed forward. We have so much agricultural land that's right in the centre of town."
Perrino says she will also be discussing transit plans for the district and surrounding area.
"We are able to get a meeting with some of the officials to talk more about transit coming through Summerland and taking up to the north and of course down to Penticton."
The UBCM will run from September 24th until the 28th with mayors from around the province in attendance.
More than 200 resolutions are up for debate at the convention, including decriminalizing marijuana, banning shark fins and cleaning up tsunami debris.

Charlotte’s Web, a hemp CBD product manufacturer, has plans to expand in cultivation, production, distribution, and research and development. They recently signed a building lease on a 137,000 square-foot facility in Louisville, Colorado. This will allow them to meet continued demand from consumers and national retailers. Their growth plan is to grow along with demand over a two-year period. The new building will hold the company’s manufacturing operations which adds significantly to their current capacity. The lease agreement also involves further expansion options into nearby buildings, as necessary.
The company is staged for rapid growth and these new facilities will allow them to do so. Their production, warehousing and distribution of their product line require support. Charlotte’s Web COO, Stephen Lermer, stated that production and inventory were dramatic in 2018 with a 675,000-pound hemp harvest. It was ten times larger than the previous year’s harvest. With multiple national retailers picking up the company’s products, they need to be prepared for even further growth. They are also investing in state-of-the-art production equipment and extraction technology to be able to provide the highest quality possible.
This will not only secure them as a major player but assist them with the innovation of new and improved products. They look forward to contributing to the growth, economy, and families of the local communities as they continue to grow.
