It’s been a while since I’ve posted an update but I finally have something to say besides I’m working on end-of-year reports and evaluations. Well, I’m finally done with all of that now so here ya go.
Land rent: I have fielded several calls lately about landowners wanting updated land rent rates. As always I stay far away from this. I encourage them to do some research and to start with the National Ag Statistics Service (NASS). If your landowner says the county agent told them that rent is higher you can call them out because I have not and will not give out figures. I was chewed out this morning because I wouldn’t give a guy rent rates for irrigated land. That business is between you and your landowner.
Production Meetings: We will have production meetings this year and Regan just got the dates set. We will send out and flyer and information on the meetings here soon. There was a change in the logistics this year so that is what we wound up with two breakfast meetings.

- Weed Meeting: February 2nd at 8:00am
- Watermelon Meeting: Febrary 14th at 12:00pm
- Peanut Meeting: March 8th at 12:00pm
Research: Some have called about this year’s research projects. The specialists are working on getting all the data entered and we will get it out as soon as they get it to me.
