The impressive turnout of almost 600 sugar beet growers at Peterborough last week left everybody in no doubt as to the strength of feeling that British Sugar’s proposed price cut for 2010 has created.
The one thing the majority agreed on is that this annual spectacle cannot continue, but if it earns us an extra pound or two we are quite happy to turn out every year. Two years ago when cereal and rape prices were up at levels never before witnessed, sugar beet looked the poor relation.
Growers at that time were able to purchase permanent quota for £1/t, which some with a longer term vision did while others, mesmerised by high cereal prices, did not.
For the 2009 crop, with cereal and rape prices dramatically lower, a lot of growers took on temporary beet quota. These growers are now realising the full meaning of the word ‘temporary’, a point emphasised by BS at last week’s meeting.
The realisation that this tonnage might not be issued again for 2010, or contracts offered at price levels that makes the crop uneconomical, has led several growers who had temporary tonnage in 2009, or have applied for some in 2010, to take advantage of excellent conditions and sow land destined for beet with oilseed rape while the drilling window is still open.
If some temporary tonnage is offered on bioethanol contracts at the £19-23 level I have heard spoken about, it wouldn’t look very enticing for many growers.
The advanced state of fieldwork in this area was perhaps borne out by the number of farmers who turned out for the opening local derby between Royston and Cambridge Veterans.
Not long into the game it became evident who had been hibernating in a combine cab for the last six weeks and who the barn boys were.

PC Emitter with On/Off Tubing Weights
PC emitters with CNL feature and On/Off tubing weights are great for hanging baskets. The weighted drop keeps the drip in line with the basket and the easy twist on/off is great for precise control of your watering. Applications include greenhouses and nurseries. You can also lay the On/Off weighted end into your pots on the ground. Keep in mind the rise in elevation from lateral line to the pot should be minimal for best performance.
To close the emitter hold the tubing and twist the weighted end clockwise until closed and to open twist weighted end counter clockwise.
The CNL (Check Non Leak) means precise watering as all drippers start and stop at the same time, opening at approximately 11 PSI and closing at 4 PSI.
*Please Note: New images coming soon! Manufacturer has updated this product with a more compact emitter design.


Plant gardenia in sheltered borders or containers in any well drained, rich fertile, neutral to acid soil. Choose a sheltered position in dappled or semi shade. Water regularly until gardenia plants are fully established. Where possible, use rainwater as the lime contained in tap water will reduce the soils acidity over time.
Feed hardy gardenia plants regularly throughout the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Whilst this variety of gardenia is perfectly hardy, it will appreciate some winter protection during particularly cold periods. In very cold climates, container-grown plants may be moved to a cool, frost-free position for the winter. In spring, lightly prune stems to maintain their shape.
Seeds and garden supplies will normally be delivered within the time period stated against each product as detailed above. Plants, bulbs, corms, tubers, shrubs, trees, potatoes etc are delivered at the appropriate time for planting and will be stated on the product page or in your order acknowledgement page and email.

Very Very Disappoited
By Kalpana Patel 17-12-2015
Ordered 4 plants and followed instructions for soil and used rain water too, and thought that I shall grow them indoors and when big enough shall plant them outdoors. Unfortunately, none of them survived they went yellow and brown and died. On complaining, T&M did replace these with new ones with buds last November. But again the plants were as if stunned. No growth at all. In summer I took them out and they just dried out. I think that this variety is not for our UK weather.

Ukraine faces new blow to exports: Polish EU commissioner makes demands to the whole EU
Polish European Commissioner Janusz Wojciechowski, who is responsible for agriculture in the European Commission, threatens to disrupt the extension of EU trade preferences for Ukraine. Among other things, the European Commissioner demands a ban on imports of Ukrainian grain, as well as quotas on sugar and poultry.
This is stated in Wojciechowski's letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Vice President for Trade Valdis Dombrovskis, RMF FM reports. The publication also notes that if the proposals are not taken into account, Wojciechowski promises not to support the EC resolution on the extension of the duty-free trade regime with Ukraine. Interagency consultations on this issue end on January 9.
In his letter to the EC leadership, Wojciechowski suggests that the new regulation should include "safeguard measures" on imports of Ukrainian rapeseed, corn, sunflower, and wheat. It is specified that these are measures that the European Commission has already applied in 2023, which was a complete ban on imports from May to September. Interestingly, Poland did not lift similar unilateral restrictions after the European Commission's embargo was lifted.
The Polish European Commissioner also calls for the return of quotas on imports of sugar and poultry from Ukraine. According to him, imports of these products from Ukraine to the EU are "growing rapidly" and "threaten to destabilize" the EU's European market.
"Preserving trade benefits for Ukraine included in the EU regulation, which expires this year, without safeguard clauses and quantitative restrictions, threatens another crisis of excess imported agricultural products from Ukraine... We need to rethink the concept of our aid, which implies unlimited openness," Wojciechowski said in his letter.
In general, Wojciechowski blames the current situation on Russia, which has blocked Ukraine's sea export routes in the Black Sea. As an alternative form of support, the European Commissioner suggests that the EU should take care of the transit of Ukrainian agricultural products to European ports, from where the goods will be sent to Africa and Asia.
As reported by OBOZ.UA, earlier Polish farmers lifted the blockade at the Medyka-Shegini checkpoint. This happened after the Polish government signed an agreement with the farmers on January 6, accepting their terms. These include corn subsidies, as well as guarantees of no tax increases and cheap loans.


Our sunflowers are going wild, in more ways than one. We grew a (Giant Mammoth) sunflower years ago and it has reseeded for years. This year it seems like they have taken over a lot of our garden plot. And, they seem to be reverting to a more wild form with smaller, multiple flowers of the "regular" sunflower yellow petal type. Yesterday my spouse harvested a head that had five open blooms on it with a 6th that was past peak.
Here is hoping our area - and all the other areas suffering drought - get some rain soon.


For the fortnight up to the 22nd of September 2021.
The topic of conversation is squarely around the new Hay season and what it will bring. The Hay makers are looking to execute quickly so that it doesn't get in the way of the more important Grain Harvest. Farmers get frustrated when the two seasons overlap, and it's usually due to slow curing Hay.
My weather spies are talking about a good rain event for the Eastern states in the first couple of days of October. Some ten or so days away.
Buyers are waiting to see how it all pans out and what the new season offers in relation to quality and then price.
The Silage season is underway, and we are seeing Silage increase in popularity each season and the Equipment required to do Silage improves. It's a much quicker process that suits the owner-operator with Livestock to feed.
A hand full of Farmers have started cutting Vetch Crops. From the small sample size, the reports are that the Crops are pretty thin, and the yield won't be anything to brag about.
There are still sales happening, but it's not large volumes, with some Farmers happy to clear some stock at a discounted rate to free up shed space for the new season stock.
Good luck with the upcoming Hay season.
What's happened to Hay prices over the last fortnight?
Overall it's still a mixed bag, and prices are directly related to quality.
Vetch Hay price reached a peak of $225 a tonne in the last fortnight. A $5 increase.
Oaten Hay got out to $150 a tonne, a $10 increase in the top from the previous fortnight.
We sold a parcel of Clover Hay for $190 a tonne and a package of Lucerne Hay for $275 a tonne.
All prices quoted are Ex GST and Ex Farm.
We go around the grounds to see what our Farm Tender Salespeople have to say:
Paul Grayling - Mallee, Vic based
Paul said - The last fortnight has brought lots of conversations about new season's Hay, With some dropping Crops already and some still waiting patiently. Silage is in full swing, and there has also been a few crops sold standing, I have heard prices ranging from $100 a tonne through to $170 a tonne for standing Crop. Obviously, quality, variety and yields have a big say on the standing price.
Shane Ruyg - Qld based
Shane said - The Hay job has slowed right down with the new season right on our doorstep. The only Hay moving is spot loads or cheap stuff that sellers are wanting to move out of the shed prior to the new season product coming in.
Mike Pickard - Darling Downs, Qld based
Mike said - Vetch and Oaten hay have been selling at reasonably cheap rates so people can empty the sheds ready for the oncoming season.
Buyers are waiting to see what new season Hay quality is like. Talking with a few Farmers in Northern New South Wales, they could be Harvesting around the third week of October and expecting some good yields.

Two girls from Tral village of Pulwama district of South Kashmir have started mushroom cultivation under National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM) scheme.
Raukaya Jan and Sobiya who hail from village Dadsar turned entrepreneurs by taking up mushroom cultivation. The Department of Agriculture helped both of them to establish mushroom units with financial and technical help. Speaking to ANI on Monday, Raukaya Jan said," The department of agriculture provided us with a subsidy to start the mushroom unit and also imparted us training.
They have made all possible efforts to make our units successful. We are thankful to them. I was unemployed despite being a postgraduate.
Now under this scheme, I have started my own mushroom unit at my home." Jan further said, "People of Jammu and Kashmir should take up mushroom cultivation to tackle the issue of unemployment and suggested creating their own employment as per the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi."
Another Kashmiri girl, Sobiya said that the youth of Kashmir should get benefitted from the scheme. "It is a very good scheme. It is mainly for the girls to a great extent.
We have been benefited as the department has provided us with a subsidy. They keep coming here from time to time and trained us.
The youths of Kashmir valley should take benefit from this scheme and start their own business units," she said. DDC chairperson Pulwama Syed Bari Andrabi said, "NRLM scheme is progressive and we are trying to cover all blocks of Pulwama in this scheme so that unemployed youths get benefits, particularly women folks."

Due to Intimpa’s sweet and intricate flavour profile and its thick mouthfeel, you’ll feel like you’re surrounded by warm, furry animals who are trying to feed you their cuteness. Sweet caramel and pear notes are alternated with the tangy freshness of orange.
You’ll also notice some delectable plum and red apple notes. And, if you use this bean to create a frothy cappuccino, it’ll remind you of the famous Dutch delicacy, stroopwafels, which have a rich, sweet, caramel and cinnamonny taste. Interesting fact: these coffee bushes have natural bodyguards in the evergreen Peruvian Intimpa trees that grow in the area and for which this coffee was named.
First things first. One of the reasons that we adore this lot is the fact that these coffee bushes have their own personal bodyguards. The evergreen Intimpa trees for which this coffee is named grow in the surrounding area and offer natural protection to the coffee bushes. The Intimpa trees are a protected species themselves and reside in the Tabaconas-Namballe sanctuary part of the Cloud Forest in the Andes.
The valley through which the Chinchipe river runs and where this direct-trade coffee is cultivated is surrounded by 4,000m high mountain tops that are home to Páramo, a unique ecosystem filled with tropical mountain forest and (endangered) wildlife. This one-of-a-kind ecosystem creates the perfect circumstances for coffee production.
The southernmost part of the Páramo ecosystem is protected by the farmers that live in the area. They only cultivate coffee on previously unforested land, never use any chemical fertilisers or herbicides and pesticides, and all of them agreed to not cut any native trees. In addition, the sanctuary contributes to the protection of the watersheds, the maintenance of the quality and quantity of the water resources in the area and the development of the surrounding communities.
For us, this is a new direct-trade connection. Together with Cultivar and the farmers we will work on cultivating sustainable, high-quality coffee in the years to come. We can’t wait to see what other gems this area will produce. We’re so proud to play a role in Peru’s specialty coffee revolution.

cardoons in NYC?
anybody know where I can get fresh cardoons? I haven't seen them this winter--thanks!
You missed their peak months -- November and December. California growers are growing them into February (if I understand correctly). Sooooo, they *are* available in some markets, but good luck finding them in NY. Maybe someone can chime in with suggestions.
try Manhattan Fruit Exchange, although a lot of California crops got wiped out in the recent frost.
I found them at West Side Market in Chelsea yesterday. It's on 7th Avenue between 14th&15th, I believe.


This family business was established when Gary and Nimmi migrated from India in the early 1990’s. Gary and Nimmi first moved to Vancouver then eventually to the Okanagan Valley, where they settled down in Oliver B.C. to start a business in agriculture — the thing they knew best.
While Gary and Nimmi had some experience in agriculture, their knowledge grew extensively over the next few years through dedication and hard work. As the years progressed, they acquired many orchards throughout the spectacular Okanagan Valley, growing and expanding their business.
In 2013, the couple installed a small cherry packing facility, which cooled the cherries and allowed them to be packed into boxes.
After a successful two years, they needed to expand the facility because the previous one no longer accommodated the amount of fruit as the production continued to grow.
With the help of their son Harman, Gary and Nimmi researched and explored many options that would allow them to pack the volume they required while achieving excellent quality.
They then installed a GP graders optical sizer and expanded to a state-of-the-art facility, which can pack large volumes and provide a finished product that can be sold domestically and in export markets.
Nimmi takes care of the fruit market in Oliver, while Gary overlooks the orchards’ operations. Their sons, Harman and Eiktaran, are in charge of the packing facility where cherries are received, processed and shipped domestically and internationally.
Harman, after completing his microbiology degree at UBC, has fully shifted his focus towards expanding and growing the family business to achieve excellence. He is now in charge of sales and operations, and ensuring that all customers are satisfied and delighted with their service and finished product — especially when it comes to their famous, enormous, juicy cherries.


This year marks 50 years that Sue Quinn has been in the Western Australian agri-finance sector.
Australian grain growers are looking forward to a rare mix of good yields and high prices as international concerns fuel price rises.
A unique sheep breed commonly referred to as "the world's cutest sheep" is creating something of a biosecurity storm in Australia.
The lack of spring rain for the majority of Western Australia has resulted in most crops being unable to fill the excellent potential shown earlier in the season, according to the Grains Industry Association of WA's (GIWA) October Crop Report.
Changes to the CBH Group's board size and composition and the introduction of limits to director tenure will be voted on by members of the co-operative at the 2021 annual general meeting (AGM).
AWI has revealed WoolQ did not meet important registration and transaction targets last financial year.


WINNIPEG, MAN. — Cargill said it will begin expansion next month at its Morris, Man., farm service center. The expansion will increase grain storage by adding an additional 20,000 tonnes for a total of 30,000 tonnes. Rail car handling will increase from the current 54 cars to 100. “Improved access to rail and increased storage capabilities remains a top priority,” said Jeff Vassart, president of Cargill Ltd. “We recognize the need for more storage and additional car spots for the entire value chain to maximize opportunity. By investing in our Morris location, we have an opportunity to efficiently manage how our grain will move and improve access to rail shipment.” Construction is expected to be completed for the 2015 harvest.

SINCE the 2021-22 wheat crop worldwide is largely in the bin and therefore a known quantity, Australia’s weather uncertainties notwithstanding, the publication of USDA’s projections overnight that cut world ending stocks has made analysts and wheat users sit up and pay attention.
The major exporters’ stocks (Figure 1) are set to decline in again 2021-22, representing tighter supplies available to the global market. Owing to drought-affected production, United States and Canada stocks are expected to draw down to the lowest level since 2007-08, despite lower exports from both countries.
While Ukraine’s stocks remain steady, Russian stocks are set to decline with its smaller crop and strong exports to the Middle East. Stocks in the European Union and Australia are also expected to decline due to exceptionally high exports.
India’s stocks balloon
India’s wheat stocks have moved in the opposite direction to the major exporters, and now account for 10 per cent of global stocks.
Over the past several years, production in India has been rising with increasing domestic procurement prices, and its government has boosted purchases of wheat for its food-security programs.
With larger crops and government procurement, India’s wheat stocks have ballooned well above desired buffer-stock levels.
Tightening global supplies and high prices from major exporters have made Indian wheat competitive for the first time in several years.
Indian wheat export prices averaged an attractive $265 per tonne in August, and have the advantage of lower freight rates to nearby countries.
India’s wheat exports are forecast to be almost 50pc higher than last year, and nearly nine times higher than two years ago. If realised, its exports would be the highest since 2013-14.
China stocks decline
Wheat stocks in China (Figure 2) declined in 2020/21 for the first time in over a decade. About one-half of global stocks are held by China, and generally have not played a significant role in the global market.
Over the past year, high feed demand has prompted China to offload some of the multi-year-old government-held stocks into the domestic market via auctions.
Meanwhile, China’s import demand for milling-quality wheat has soared, propelling it to become the second-largest importer. Imports are forecast at high levels again in 2021-22, with China forecast as the fourth-largest importer.
Sharp price rise
Reported elsewhere following the WASDE and other report publications overnight, market price responses have been coming for quite some time, spurred by publicity of drought in Canada and dryness in many parts of East Asia, but the confluence of two years of less-than-ideal bread wheat and durum crops is causing significant price impact on food.
Wheat prices have risen sharply over the past several months, reflecting strong consumption growth despite relatively flat global production.
They continued to climb throughout October (Figure 3) as international demand remained high despite tight supplies from some major exporters, though prices have settled lower the past few days. Canada had the largest increase as supplies are constrained by a significantly smaller crop. Canadian quotes peaked at a new high before dipping in November and settling up $24/t from the prior month. US quotes followed a similar trend, up $4/t from the prior month. U.S. farm and futures prices have risen to the highest levels since 2012/13, reflected in the highest export quotes since the same period. EU and Russian export quotes rose $15/t and $19/t respectively on large tenders, especially from the Middle East and North Africa. Australian quotes rose $12/t and Argentine quotes rose $8/t ahead of their new crops.
Note on FOB prices: Argentina 12.0 per cent protein, up river; Australia average of APW; Kwinana, Newcastle, and Port Adelaide; Russia Black Sea milling; EU France grade 1, Rouen; US HRW 11.5% Gulf; Canada CWRS 13.5 per cent protein, Vancouver.
Production was down sharply from last year among several of the major suppliers, including Canada, the US, Kazakhstan, and Russia.
While somewhat offset by larger crops in the EU, Ukraine, and Argentina, strong global demand is a major factor leading to tighter global stocks.
Import demand is surging as dry weather in the Middle East spurs additional imports, especially for Iran and Turkey.
Tendering from the Middle East and North Africa has been robust especially over the past month despite global wheat prices significantly higher than last year.
Global production is down this month with lower estimates for the EU, United Kingdom, and Turkey, only partly offset by an upward revision for Russia.
Global consumption is raised this month. Ending stocks are adjusted to the lowest in five years with downward revisions in India and the EU.
Global trade is forecast higher with imports raised for Iran, Turkey, Algeria, and Saudi Arabia. Exports are lifted for the EU, Russia, and India.

As feed costs and oil prices continue to rise, many farmers see the value in investing in covered silage pits.
Robinsons can quote for a simple self-erect kit through to a full turnkey package, including project management and erection. We can offer solutions to ensure you have optimum height, storage and face size.
More local authorities are looking for farmers to reduce the amount of “dirty” water on farms, we can help you to achieve these goals. Another area of wastewater can be reduced by covering existing Middens. We can provide quotations to supply and erect roofs over existing yard areas.
New amendments to the rules around how farms manage and store silage and slurry were introduced on 1st January 2022 with the aim of protecting the environment and helping to make better use of nutrients produced on farms. New regulations now require your proposal to be submitted for approval 30 days before starting the build in line with GBR 31 – Silage silos. Farming and Water Scotland have released their new adherence guide which can be found here.
We can assist you with your site plans, design drawings, recommendations on prefabricated products and engineering solutions to support your proposal to SEPA or the environment agency.

Cebu, Philippines (3 October) -- The Department of Agriculture (DA) is poised to set up additional barangay food terminals (BFT) and "bagsakan centers" in various parts of the country to control prices and availability of food.
Agriculture secretary Arthur Yap said, "to date, the DA has already opened 9 Bagsakan centers, and 13 barangay food terminal (BFTs) in various provinces in the country and it is projecting a total of two million beneficiaries from the BFTs it is setting up in the rest of Metro Manila, other regions, and in the country's economic zones."
In Cebu, the DA here will also put up three (3) barangay food terminals in barangays Pasil and Inayawan in Cebu City and one in Mandaue City.
Eduardo Lecciones, regional director of DA-7 said, these BFTs will the first in Central Visayas and "these will serve as the bagsakan centers of harvest from the various towns of the province," he added.
According to Lecciones, building food terminals is just one of the priority infrastructure projects of the department. "In Central Visayas, we included the setting up of flatbed dryers in the rice producing towns of Alicia, San Miguel, Carmen and Ubay in Bohol and in the cities of Bayawan and Canlaon in Negros Oriental," Lecciones said, as well as the repair of existing small-scale irrigation facilities in the region.
According to the DA, Yap initiated the food terminal/bagsakan centers concept during his first stint as DA secretary about 3 years ago. These bagsakan centers would directly link farm producers in the countryside to small wet markets in urban centers, eliminating unnecessary trading layers that unduly jack up prices of agricultural products and cut profits for small farmers and fisherfolks.
The project was partly funded by the Japan Grant Assistance for Underprivileged Farmers, also known as the 2KR grant, which aims to benefit Filipino farmers living below the poverty line.
Recently, the Mindanao Fruit Council members sold more than 1.4 metric tons of durian in just two hours when it brought exotic fruits such as durian, mangosteen, rambutan, marang and lanzones at the "bagsakan center" at Quezon City Circle. The fruits were mainly sourced from Davao City, Kidapawan City and North Cotabato.
"After our successful trial periods in the past few weeks, DA will formally launch these Mindanao fruits at all Bagsakan Centers in Metro Manila," Yap said, adding that prices will be cheaper than in the super markets.
"Because this part of our market linkage program, a kilo of durian in QC circle was only P80, lower than super market prices of P130 to P150," Yap said.
He also said that the DA also plans to talk with some airfreight companies, and ask for some special rates for the commodities."I hope that our fruits will be included also in their priority list because we received some complaints from producers that often their products are being bumped off. I'm sure the airline companies will help us on this," he added. (PIA-Cebu/MBCN)


CFAP 2 – It’s Better!
USDA has a new version of the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP-2) that makes $13.21 billion in aid available to farmers over the next few months. USDA plans to distribute CFAP-2 payments to farmers to partially compensate for losses incurred between April 1, 2020 – August 31, 2020 (or from April 16 for livestock) where prices, markets, and supply chains have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
CFAP – 2 is more flexible and workable than its predecessor. There are new payment options that will allow CFAP to be more accessible to different growers. The new revenue option for example is based on a farm’s 2019 revenue. This is likely to be a better fit for smaller growers and diversified growers whose crops may have been left out in the first round of funding.
In this webinar, Jeff Schahczenski, agricultural economist with the National Center for Appropriate Technology (NCAT) leads a discussion about the new program. The webinar is presented by NCAT and the Montana Organic Association.

I don’t think there is any person in this entire world who doesn’t love to have gardens. A lot of people have them in their home and many people don’t own it. The people who cannot afford a garden is just because they are expensive. First you have to buy land and then grow a garden in it. It can be expensive.
Since indoor gardening arrived in the market, it fulfilled many people dreams of having a garden in their home. Although it is expensive but not as expensive as an outdoor garden is. You can have an indoor garden and it is only several steps away from you with using LED Grow Lights [Read more…]


Are you ready to lose weight? Harvest time is a great season to make the transition to a whole foods plant based life. All the fresh fruits and vegetables are really beautiful, sweet and juicy! Many of them are locally sourced, picked ripe and at their peak flavor. Here in Michigan we are celebrating with fresh peaches, tomatoes, plums, melons, blueberries, blackberries, apples and of course cherries! Everything is in season; plentiful with low prices and huge varieties.
It’s way easier than you may think to give up animal products like meat, poultry, eggs, fish, milk and cheese. All the nutrition you need is readily available at every local grocery store without visiting the meat department. You can eat all the fruits and vegetables as frequently as you want so you won’t feel hungry. Limit the nuts and seeds due to their high oil content and thereby high calorie count.
To cover your daily needs for protein, vitamins and minerals all you have to do is have a few servings of a combination from these food groups:
Whole grains like oatmeal, brown rice, whole wheat, sweet corn, millet.
A handful of some nuts or seeds like walnuts, almonds, peanuts, pistachios, cashews, milled flaxseed, sunflower seeds, quinoa or chia seeds.
Some fresh fruit including but not limited to apples, bananas, cherries, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, plums, peaches, nectarines, oranges, watermelon, cantaloupe, pears, pineapple, grapes, raisins, apricots, dates, figs, grapefruit.
Some vegetables including lettuce, cabbage, carrots, celery, cucumber, zucchini, asparagus, spinach, kale, brussel sprouts, parsley, peas, green beans, black beans, chickpeas, lima beans, kidney beans, navy beans, soy beans, bean sprouts, onions, garlic, potatoes, sweet potatoes, green peppers, bell peppers, squash, eggplant.
Pick something to eat from each group. Your amazing body will break it down into amino acids (protein building blocks), carbohydrates for energy and Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids to support your nervous system and cell walls. All this will be absorbed along with vitamins and minerals with no cholesterol in any of it. Take a vitamin B 12 supplement and you have fulfilled all of your body’s nutritional needs.
Each of the above food groups contains choices that you already eat. Notice that oil, processed sugar, white flour and white rice are not in any of the lists. They are nutritionally empty calories with no fiber and do not belong in your diet.

Panama is well-known for its coffee production and distribution around the world. How do their exports benefit coffee workers within the country? Purchasing Panama Coffee Brands is an easy way to invest into the lives of the coffee farmers within the country. When you buy a bag of coffee from Panama, you are directly investing in the company that provides employment to coffee workers and farmers. In addition, you’re helping to provide jobs in the country’s exporting and customs. Lastly, you’re also helping to raise awareness and profits for the entire community and country, that will be re-invested into the community’s education, healthcare, and so much more. While the coffee itself may be more pricey, the delicious coffee that you make with it will be well worth the cost, and you’ll be able to drink it in the knowledge that you’re supporting entire communities!


From the farm to your kitchen
Madison Locally Grown connects farmers to residents
By Kathryn Schiliro
Eat your (local) veggies, Morgan County.
Last week, newly established Madison Locally Grown launched its operation, set to bring locally produced food to county residents. Considering it a community service, Madison Locally Grown organizer Betsy Garrard wants to make it easy for Morgan Countians to get their hands (and mouths) on local food, and to support local farmers.
And, thanks to the organization, it's now as easy as your weekly trip to the grocery store.
Similar to a co-op, where you take out a membership to get a box of groceries from local growers, but different in that you choose (and pay for) the goods you receive instead of getting the same pre-determined box of food that everyone else in the co-op gets, Madison Locally Grown allows customers to go online, sign up for accounts, and become members. The process works in that farmers have to have their weekly selection to Garrard, who runs the Web site, by Sunday; she sends out an e-mail with the list of the week's offerings to members, who then have until Tuesday evening to place their orders. Farmers have Wednesday to harvest the needed goods and deliver them to Betsy, stationed at Madison Produce Company, by 4 p.m.; finally, members can pick up their orders at the downtown Madison location between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.
"A lot more people will buy from the local farmers if it's as easy as a once-a-week pick-up," Garrard said. "A mom like me isn't going to schlep out to all the different farms to get groceries."
By partnering with Madison Produce Company, a business not only locally owned and operated but that carries locally produced goods, it's Garrard's hope that Madison Locally Grown members will go in the store and continue their shopping for the week, further supporting local farmers.
"With Andy [Oller, Madison Produce Company owner and operator] letting us use his space, if people plan ahead they can get a lot of groceries there locally," Garrard said. "If people take advantage of it, they can get a lot of good, local stuff and support a local business."
"I wanted to help Betsy out. I wanted to help out local farmers," Oller said of why he chose to be the drop-off / pick-up location. "I want to develop a better relationship with local farmers. ... If I can get more business, I can sell more of their stuff here, too."
Inspired to start Madison Locally Grown by several factors – membership in a large co-op in Michigan (she grew up going to the co-op in the summer) and relationships with local farmers – Garrard contacted Athens Locally Grown and used their business model to start up the Madison organization.
According to the Web site, madison.locallygrown.net, Madison Locally Grown is comprised of farms varying "in size and specialty, but all carry the common thread of dedication to community, environment, health and education." Additionally, growers farm their land "using strict standards to ensure that everything produced is chemical-free."
Right now, there are more than 120 products to choose from, ranging from meat and seasonal vegetables to honey, candles, even lip balm.
The cost for membership is $25 per household (a good deal, Garrard says, as it's $250 to belong to her Michigan co-op), but the first order is free, so potential customers can try it out. Of the orders that go through the Madison Locally Grown Web site – orders are paid with cash or check at pick-up – Garrard keeps 10 percent of the proceeds; 3 percent of that 10 goes to keep the Web site running and the other 7 percent is placed in an account for publicity and future projects.
"The more people that buy from it, the more farmers are going to want to join...and there will be that much more diversity," Garrard said.
Right now there are 16 participating farms.
"We hope it works because if we can make it work, it will be something that will be around for a long time in Madison," Garrard said. "The farmers aren't going anywhere, and people aren't going to quit eating food."

A model of coordination: the "European Initiative for Agricultural Research for Development"
The European Initiative for Agricultural Research for Development (EIARD) is a permanent informal ARD policy coordination platform between the European Commission, Member States of the European Union, Switzerland and Norway.
- Initiated in 1995, the Communication COM(97)126 on EIARD was recognised by the Council and European Parliament in 1997. Operating outside the normal EU "comitology" procedures (committee system), EIARD's effectiveness is ensured through its country representatives and by the endorsement of its role by the European Council and Parliament.
- EIARD's goal is to promote and implement coherent European policies at international, regional and sub-regional levels in order to increase the impact of agricultural research for development (ARD) on poverty reduction, food security and sustainable management of natural resources in developing countries.
- EIARD is implemented by a European Coordination Group, which meets annually, and a smaller Working Group, which ensures the continuing activities of EIARD. (see also governance)

The Food is Free Project has evolved from a front yard garden into an open source movement of over 400 cities around the world. Each food sharing project is about growing and sharing food, but they all look a bit different. Some of us have front yards, others rooftops, or maybe just a balcony or a window. Join us and let's plant a world of abundance!
Here are some inspiring highlights from the Food is Free worldwide community this week:

Last of the too low ph Blueberry Plants
Okay, I'm down to the last plant that needs to be flushed. It's a Alapaha Rabbiteye and it's in a raised bed. The ph is reading 3.2 to 3.7 depending on where in the bed I take the reading from. There is defiantly a lock out going on here and If I don't do something pretty quick I'm afraid I'm going to lose it. The roots have not spread very much at all past the original rootball as you can see in the pictures, maybe 4 inches at the most. It's been in the bed since last Feb! The roots should have spread to at least half of the bed to this point from compairing to my other rabbit eye right next to it planted at the same time. So here is my plan!!! Since flushing really isnt effective in a raised bed (the acid just settles to the bottom of the bed) situation I want to remove the plant, rinse as much if the soil from the root ball as possible, remove half the soil from the bed and replace with something like cotton burr compost and mix it all up then recheck the ph. Once I get it right just replant! Any thoughts or suggestions? Maybe I could wait untill it's dormant but I want to take a chance of lossing it.

Nothing beats the sight of bright coloured daffodils opening to herald the new Spring growing season, and our fabulous value English grown nets of daffodils offer you bulbs at around 10p each - amazing value when you consider how many years of colour and satisfaction they will give.
The perfect cost-effective soluton for mass plantings in lawns, hedgrows, along driveways, in wooded or shady areas, or even for a low-care solution to new build gardens. For an informal and natural look and pattern, simply scatter handfuls of bulbs around by hand, and plant them where they land.
They will flower in first Spring and grow into bigger clumps over the next 20 or more years.

Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi has sent warning shots to local maize millers who are yet to reduce their maize flour prices, threatening to revoke their permits.
The Agriculture CS has scheduled a meeting with millers this Friday, April 21, to solve the unga pricing issue.
Linturi, in an interview with Citizen TV last night, expressed disappointment in the millers’ inability to reduce the prices of maize flour, as directed by President William Ruto.
“I will give millers a notice on Friday. If they are given a permit but are not able to provide the Unga, then they should notify the Ministry because the duty-free waiver extends up to August 6. The millers and any other beneficiary of the permit will be able to discuss any challenges they are facing in the foreign trade” the CS noted.
Linturi said that the government has waived duties on imported maize and rice and gave permits to all millers at the same time.
“Ajab is selling at below Sh170 because it’s one of the beneficiaries of the permits that we gave to millers to bring maize into the country. That means, the Ajab and Umi consignments have started coming in,” he added.
He reiterated the government’s plan to lower the cost of production to cushion Kenyans from the high cost of living.
“When we made these promises, we knew we would deliver. The government’s priority right now is to make sure the country is stable, and that is why we are asking Kenyans to be patient,” said Linturi.
A spot check by The Standard on Tuesday, April 18, identified only two millers, Umi and Ajab who had lowered their prices.
A statement by Statehouse Spokesperson Hussein Mohammed on Monday alluded that unga prices had come down to between Sh159 and Sh160.
“Unga prices have started going down just as President William Ruto had assured Kenyans over the weekend. Prices have dropped to Sh159 and Sh160, depending on the millers. When the president assumed office last year, a 2kg packet was retailing at approximately Sh230,” Mohammed tweeted.
This came in the back of a statement by President Wiliam Ruto, who promised a reduction in the price of maize flour last week.

I do hereby affirm my desire to become a member of LotFotL Community Farm in 2019. I am comfortable with the farm communicating changes, updates, and announcements about my shares via email.
Payment Commitments: In signing up for a CSA share I am committing to investing the full cost of my share into the farm. Whether I pay in full or in installments, I am liable for the full amount of the share. I understand that the farm plans its vegetable and meat production and makes investments based on these commitments, so it is imperative that I fully pay for my share. I understand that this is an investment, so some years the return is especially high and some years it may be a bit lower than hoped.
Cancellation: In the event that I feel I must discontinue with my share and I can’t find anyone to step into my place, I understand that the cancellation fee for “Choice” CSA program members will be 1/6 of the total cost of their program (aka 1 months worth of the cost). For any other program (prepacked, meat, and market) there is a $150 cancellation fee regardless of when I cancel.
Pick up Commitments:
Pre-packed Box Program (Originally called Traditional): I will pick up food from the specified location and follow the directions given at the site (checking the roster list and only taking what is listed after my name). I understand that LotFotL is not in a position to give credit or replace unclaimed boxes. Unclaimed food at the end of pick up day will be donated by the drop site.
Home delivery Shares: If I have chosen a home delivery program, I will supply a visible cooler in a designated place to have my food left in when it is delivered. LotFotL reserves the right to cancel a delivery due to poor weather. In the event of unsafe weather conditions for delivery, a new delivery day and time will be established in partnership with you to ensure your order safely reaches you, and the farmer safely makes it home thereafter.
“Choice” CSA Program: I understand that this program is designed to feed members on a weekly basis and works best if members pick up once a week. Members must arrive between the listed pick up times at their site to receive their food.
South Shore Market Shares: I will pick up my items at the farm stand between 8am and 12pm. The season runs 17 of the 18 markets (no pick up on the last day). I understand that LotFotL is not in a position to give credit or replace unclaimed boxes. Unclaimed food at the end of pick up day will be donated by the drop site.
Turkeys: Birds are picked up at the farm starting the week of November 18th, 2019 and must be claimed by Dec 31st. Call to schedule your pick up time. CSA members that made early season pre-orders that have other prior determined delivery arrangements, your delivery will be honored.
Veggie CSA’s: I’m willing to share in the risks of investing in an organic farmer and will not hold Tim Huth or LotFotL legally accountable for extenuating circumstances that may minimize the return on my investment. I am expecting a season’s worth of produce of reasonable quantity and quality as appropriate return on this investment.
Meat CSA’s: I understand that each month will have sustainably raised meats available from local producers. I will be able to choose my contents based on inventory available at the farm, which will change from month to month. I am expecting a season’s worth of sustainable meat as appropriate return on this investment.
“Choice” CSA Program: I’m willing to share in the risks of investing in an organic farmer and will not hold Tim Huth or LotFotL legally accountable for extenuating circumstances that may minimize the return on my investment. I understand that each week will make available vegetables and fruit that are in season, so, as the seasons develop so will the heartiness of the vegetables. I understand that sustainable meat will be available from LotFotL and/or other local Wisconsin or regional producers. Other food will be sourced from local Wisconsin or regional businesses/farms. I am expecting a season’s worth of food of reasonable quantity, quality, and variety as appropriate return on this investment.
Farm Communication: By signing up for the CSA, I understand that I will be added to the weekly email list. This is how LotFotL communicates updates and changes, as well as what will be in/available for shares each week.
Thank you for choosing LotFotL Community Farm! We look forward to growing with you this season.

Take charge of your agricultureBy RAM Mounts
May 25, 2016
Farmers are all too familiar with having to get more from a smaller space. This is increasingly true in the cabs of modern tractors and tractors that farmers are utilizing more and more technology to help maximize crop yields.
We work with several companies in the software and tractor space and have helped them navigate the introduction of precision-planting technology and hardware into the machines.
We recently had an opportunity to work with our friends at Precision Planting to display the 20/20 SeedSense in our booth and wanted to share one of the interesting things we learned.
This year, since rolling out with our IntelliSkin® and GDS® products for Samsung, Apple, and Microsoft, RAM is making a big leap into the world of precision farming. We’re moving away from providing just the hardware necessary to mount equipment in-cab but we’re also entering into the electronic hardware market with software companies such as Precision Planting and TeeJet.
The coolest thing about the IntelliSkin and GDS technology isn’t that you can now simply charge your cellphone or tablet in-cab, because you had that ability already. Instead, it’s that you can now convert your existing precision farming monitors into a seamless power supply when connected to the GDS dock via USB. You’ll never have to plug your charging cable into the device again! As a result, you can now charge, protect, and pass data through your devices in-cab when using the IntelliSkin and GDS combination.
With the state of the Ag economy in disarray, we have the perfect solution to retrofit tractors, service trucks, ATVs, and numerous other vehicles that may be present on the farm with new technologies. If your budget is tight this year because commodity prices are down, consider evaluating your options when looking at bringing additional electronics in-cab. Use your existing precision farming displays like the 20/20 to support any tablets or cellphones that you may have, and keep them charged all while you farm! If you want to learn more about how IntelliSkin can benefit your farm, visit our agricultural page.

Lori Dabbs says it seems like every time someone with the University of Arkansas wants to try out a new idea, they think of her and her family’s farm on the Grand Prairie near Stuttgart, Arkansas.
Over the years, she, her husband and her son have participated in a number of such programs with one of the latest being the Arkansas Discovery Farms Project. “Sometimes it seems like we have a target on us,” she said, laughing. “They seem to think we’ll try anything.”
The Dabbs are willing to participate, she said, because they believe the research could help them and other farmers better conserve their natural resources and remain profitable. Her comments came during her presentation at the Arkansas Soil & Water Education Conference and Irrigation Expo at Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, Ark.


- Vietnam rates fall on summer-autumn harvest
- India’s exports could ease from Oct. as Govt. ups buying prices
BENGALURU (Reuters): Weak demand and expectations of fresh supplies weighed on export prices for rice across most Asian hubs last week, while rates from top exporter India stayed near their lowest level in 14 months amid a weaker Indian rupee.
Rates for India’s 5% broken parboiled variety were steady at $ 388-$ 392 per ton, unchanged from last week.
“Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are not buying. African countries are making only small purchases,” said an exporter based at Kakinada in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh.
The Indian rupee has lost more than 7% so far in 2018, increasing exporters’ returns from overseas sales.
India raised prices paid to local farmers for paddy rice by 13% from a year ago to INR 1,750 per 100 kg.
The hike could dent the country’s exports from October by making new season cargoes expensive compared to supply from rival growers, industry officials said. In Vietnam, prices of 5% broken rice fell to $ 405-$ 420 a ton from $ 425-$ 430 a ton a week earlier.
“Prices are under downward pressure as the summer-autumn harvest is peaking and as Thai prices are lower,” a Ho Chi Minh City-based trader said.
Prices offered by Vietnam are under pressure to compete with lower Thailand prices.
Vietnamese customs data released on Thursday showed rice shipments from Vietnam in June fell 29.6% from May to 537,948 tons, down from a government forecast of 650,000 tons.
For the first half of this year, Vietnam’s rice exports rose 21.6% from a year earlier to 3.48 million tons.
In Thailand, prices of the benchmark 5% broken variety were in the range of $ 378-$ 395 compared with $ 385-$ 388 last week.
“Prices declined because the baht weakened and markets were quiet. Production continued to come in. Next week, it will probably be this way because it has been quiet,” one trader said.
Another trader said if the exchange rate is stable, prices will continue to remain in the range seen this week.


Watermelon OG Auto is another autoflowering strain in the Kush family by Seeds66. She is strong, delivers high yields and the taste is to love. Watermelon OG's parents are Melon Purple and Black OG, which were then crossed with a select ruderalis. The result is an indica strain of the extra class.
The growth of the Watermelon OG Auto

In the flowering phase, she turns from light purple to dark violet and forms a thick layer of trichomes.
The effect of the Watermelon OG Auto
The effect is very strong and long-lasting. She delivers a euphoric boost that is very positive while at the same time providing a relaxing and relaxing effect that permeates the entire body. A perfect strain for evening use or a relaxing day off. The THC content of Watermelon OG is around 25%, which is very strong for an automatic strain.
Smell and taste of the Watermelon OG Auto
Already in the flowering phase you can smell that sweet and tropical aroma that fills the entire grow room. This smell also reflects the taste when smoking. This is then accompanied by a delicate grape aroma.

It was wonderfully healthy beforeIbefore. did water it slightly in the past but since have not watered at all for weeks and it now looks like it is Browning with leaves drying up. I'm not so sure it is still adjusting anymore, and I think I am killing it. I changed the soil 2 days ago but it continues down this slumpy brown dry path. It is getting sun away from South facing Windows. Thank you!

This week's top five agriculture stories include an examination of the ag barometer by Purdue University and what it means about the ag economy. Plus, water quality is often a concern but not it's more than just a concern. It's a duty for farmers to ensure they are doing all they can do to make it better. We take a look at some ways, farms can improve water quality.
Also, a look at how to doctor your soil. Just like people get run down, so can soil. Check out the story for some ways you can improve your soil.
And no week is complete without a laugh. Many, if not most producers need one after the wet, cool spring weather we have experienced in the last week or two and the delays created by it.


The Oyo State House of Assembly has approved the request of the state Governor, Engr Seyi Makinde to access Seven Billion, Six hundred thousand naira (N7.6b) loan to boost Akufo and Eruwa farm settlement areas of the state.
The approval followed a letter forwarded by the governor and read by the Speaker, Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin at plenary on Wednesday, October 10th, 2019.
After heated deliberations by members on the issue, majority of the lawmakers observed that the loan facility should spread across farm settlements in the state while the Speaker finally ruled that the loan would be approved.
The governor is seeking to access the N7.6 billion naira loan to develop Akufo and Eruwa farm settlements into farm estates in the state.
The two farm settlements, which are located within Ido/Ibarapa federal constituency are to serve as pilot projects that will be used to develop other farm settlements across the state.
In their separate reactions, the deputy Speaker, Hon Abiodun Fadeyi and the Minority Leader, Hon Asimiyu Alarape called for the extension of the loan facility to other farm settlements across the state.
They equally urged the executive arm of government in Oyo state to ensure judicious use of the agricultural loan to enable it achieve the purpose for which it is sought.
Hon. Isiaka Tunde representing Oyo East/ Oyo West constituency and Hon. Dele Adeola representing Iseyin/Itesiwaju state constituency also expressed their dissatisfaction on concentration of the loan to only two farm settlements located within only one federal constituency.
They noted that there is need for Governor Seyi Makinde to spread the scope and usage of the agricultural loan to other zones in the state and not limit it to Akufo and Eruwa farm settlements alone.
While passing the resolution, the Speaker, Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin overruled the submission of other lawmakers, stated that the loan facility would be approved as presented by the governor.

Coalition Calls for ‘Full and Fair’ Farm Bill – Michigan Public News Service
See what sustainable agriculture groups from around the country are asking of congress this time around in the farm bill process!
July 29, 2013
DETROIT – Time is running out for lawmakers in Washington to pass a national Farm Bill before the current bill, a one-year extension of the previous measure, expires at the end of September.
The National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC) has rounded up hundreds of signatures from groups representing farm, food and conservation interests, urging legislators to act quickly and fairly to get the bill passed. NSAC policy director Ferd Hoefner is asking the House and Senate to work together to pass a Farm Bill that includes funding for farm, food and nutrition programs, commodity and crop insurance reforms, and conservation and rural economic development programs.
“Whether that’s creating jobs in rural communities, or making sure that minority farmers get treated fairly by the Department of Agriculture, or that beginning farmers can get access to credit so they can into agriculture and start as new farmers,” those are all important, he said.
The groups also want provisions removed from the bill they say would weaken protections for consumers and small farmers.
According to Diane Conners, senior policy specialist with the Michigan Land Use Institute, a group which is one of the letter’s signers, small-scale farm operators and young farmers rely on programs offered in the Farm Bill.
These include “things like micro-loans, and training and marketing plans, because a lot of the local food economy is built on a different kind of relationship than selling into the commodity markets.”
Conners said the Farm Bill also helps support Michigan’s robust tourism economy.
That’s “both in the sense that people like to visit the farms and taste the flavors of this area, but it also is something that is a signature part of our landscape,” she said.
The U.S. House and Senate are expected to start their summer recess at the end of this week.

AGRANA in Romania
In 1998, AGRANA Zucker A.G. Austria started to invest in Romania. Nowadays, AGRANA runs two sugar factories in Roman and Buzau and one starch factory in Tandarei.
In 2005 all the sugar factories merged for an efficient management and administration, and therefore SC AGRANA Romania SA was founded.
The main activity of the company is sugar production out of imported raw sugar and sugar out of sugar beet. AGRANA is one of the most important sugar supplier for the sweetener and soft drink industry, for the international retailing, but especially for the local retailers from the small towns and villages in the whole country.
Our sugar beet production is located in Roman, Neamt County. The factory is the most significant partner for thousands of beet producers and land owners in the Eastern Romania starting from the Ukrainian border down to the South in Galati County. AGRANA specialists inform the farmers over the whole year by presenting them general agro-technical information and give them support to develop the arable crop cultivation. The most import matter is that AGRANA wants to bring the soil structure back to a favorable sanitary level. The company intention is, to bring the Romanian sugar beet crop at a competitive level in Europe.
Since SC AGRANA Romania SA was founded the company has invested in technological improvement of the beet sugar production and for the sugar refining, to modernize the technologies used for the beet planting as well as the agricultural machines used in the sugar beet harvesting and post-harvesting.
Our raw sugar production is located in Buzau, Buzau County. The plant was designed for both types of sugar production: from beet and from cane raw sugar. In 1998 the technology was changed in order to process only raw sugar. The processing plant capacity is 1.000 tons of raw sugar per day. AGRANA Romania has made several investments for upgrading and modernizing production, the company's latest acquisition is an automatic packing line which achieved the perfect quality of packaging. It achieved also the performance that only two operators could pack 60 tons in 12 hours, therefore the productivity increased by 24 tonnes per shift.
The AGFD Tandarei SRL factory is situated in the South – East of the country, halfway from Bucharest and Constanta. The location was taken over by AGRANA in December 2001. After an ambitious investment program the production started in April 2002. The main products are: Innate starch and modified starch, glucose and maltose syrup, grains, gluten and husk corn.
The annual production capacity is 36.000 tons of corn. The company owns modern storage and processing areas for more than 20.000 tons of cereals. Also, it owns special means of transport for bulk powder (starch) and viscid alimentary liquids (glucose).
The most important concern of the company in recent years was to find and invest in effective ways of optimizing the energy consumption and to improve the environment.
The company was founded in 1997 and was named, at that time, WINK ROMANIA. The original partner was the German company Wink Verwaltungsgesellschaft MBH. In September 1997, the concentrate juice production factory was launched. The factory is situated in Vaslui on a 19.000 square feet area, which is now owned by the company. In March 2005 the main partner offered the social capital for cession to the Austrian Group AGRANA, and in July the name of the company changed to AGRANA Juice Romania Vaslui, to directly demonstrate the company’s affiliation and area of work. The seasonal medium level of production is 3000 tons of apple concentrate and 100 tons of apple flavors.


Uses for a dead oven until new arrives
Interested to hear ideas. I have no idea how long I have to wait until the new range comes but its at least two weeks.
I'm trying the oven out as greenhouse. I have a tray of half-cereal boxes filled with dirt planted with seeds in it - using the oven lights periodically for heat. After sprouting, I guess the lights could supply some extra hours of daylight.
