    Legacy nutrient deductions

    In some ways it's also promoting the conservation of mined resources like phosphorus and potassium that are mined to make fertilizer. I don't think it is necessarily promoting the draw down of nutrients, but compensating farmers for a depreciation in their asset when they otherwise would not...

    Why is there such a lack of value to a human life in today's society?

    "The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents...

    Why is there such a lack of value to a human life in today's society?

    It isn't that the world is getting worse, it's that we are all much more aware of negative news in places we didn't use to hear from. The internet and overall more connectedness of everyone makes it seem like crime is higher and society is failing. Before, few on this board outside of Kansas...

    The hero we don’t deserve

    Selection of lyrics from Nugent's song titled Jailbait, that he wrote when he was 32: "Well, I don't care if you're just thirteen You look too good to be true I just know that you're probably clean There's one little thing I got do to you Jailbait you look so good to me Jailbait won't you set...

    Chinkapin not doing well

    That sudden blackening of the tips and overall greying of the leaves made me think they were wet and then got too hot. This also sometimes shows up as anthracnose, which is typically a secondary stressor.

    Chinkapin not doing well

    Any chance the soil was wet right as it got hot?

    Looks like some great spots for arrowheads

    Trail Cameras in 2025

    That is entirely up to the manufacturer. I bought a Moultrie cell cam a few years ago and you could only operate the camera through their mobile app over a cell network. I'm actually pleased to hear about your experience with tacticam because I was fearing most manufacturers were going the...

    Arrowhead and other historic/pre-historic collections

    The Sheriff will prosecute every time they are caught in the act. It can be a challenge to make that happen, even with cell cams. We know who two of the four are and the Sheriff is tracking them down to have a conversation first.

    Arrowhead and other historic/pre-historic collections

    We find quite a few just like the black one. I have had the exact same thought.

    Arrowhead and other historic/pre-historic collections

    In the video clip one of the guys says something about not getting caught. I'm assuming he was talking about trespassing. Since March, we have had 4 different people trespassing on camera, all of which were walking the creeks looking for arrowheads.

    250+ Million Acres of Public Land Could Be Sold Under New Budget Bill

    One of the benefits of federally owned land is the ability for conducting large scale environmental research. If this land becomes privatized, that opportunity may be lost.

    Sick Deer?

    Too early for EHD (I think). Could be CWD. Could be because of fawns. I don't think I have ever seen a nursing doe have so underdeveloped front and rear quarters, though. To me, that isn't just a lack of fat reserves, but an overall wasting away for whatever reason.

    250+ Million Acres of Public Land Could Be Sold Under New Budget Bill

    I think the best argument in favor of this that I have seen has come down on the side of allowing states to control what happens to it. I tend to yield to that on principle, but this is a terrible idea in my opinion. It's probably not news to anyone here, but one of the very best aspects of our...

    Don Higgins blend or CIR Switch

    I couldn't find anything on Independence because it seems relatively new. I'd be curious to hear from others that have tried it. I did find this paper that compared Independence with Kanlow and Liberty among others. This looks like it would be a pretty good cultivar. The only issue that I can...
