I think we need a group hug.



I think the biggest thing to be taken away from this is that a company is using an attack campaign to negatively portray a group or industry.

I never liked the negative attacks. It always bothers me in November, and it always bothered me when X brand truck, or X brand tractor would attack Y and Z brand trucks or tractors to make themselves look better. The best way to make yourself look better is to be honest and have a good product you stand behind (manure spreaders excluded)

I'm proud of any and every farmer who says, I don't need subsidies or government mandates. You'd think I, for one, would be happy as a clam about the Renewable Fuels Standard. I am not. I wish it would go away. I don't want Uncle Sam telling me what I have to burn in my car or truck. I also don't want people to go plowing up golf courses to plant corn because the price is unnaturally high. All that does is cause grief and Bill Nye the science guy to attack farmers for polluting and causes problems for the whole industry.

Technology is a wonderful thing, and I would love to make 400 bushel per acre. I just don't want to become a marked man in order to do it. The more irresponsibility that exists only breeds more regulation, which in turn hurts everyone.

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit ... [Read Article]
