    Big Iron! Fargo ND!.

    Sep 15, 16, 17 in Fargo ND.
    Their is field demonstrations and lots and lots of equipment to see.
    Funny its our if it rain we go show. Been 10 years since we have been to it. Bought our first high lift sprayer down their back in early 80s. Wet years it was a week to harvest as the sun came out and we went. This year it looks real wet Thursday and on and off all week. Maybe it will be the year to travel south. Maybe not.
    But lots of info on soy and corn etc. row planters etc.
    Just something different in a world of AG. Yes their is a exchange cost to going to the USA as a Canadian dollar buys at 70 cents but when the NDP win travel will end as we become the Brazil of the north. .45.
    Here is to a week of no rain and lets get harvesting done.

    Yes we will go too if it rains. I like the fact there is no entrance fee and a mix of displays and some field demo's. With more soybeans and the like the show has more relevance than 20 years ago. Poor dollar sucks for buying much down there now compared to a couple years ago

      No admission? Wtf.

      Saskatchewan shows could learn a lesson. They are government subsidized anyway.

      Oh I forgot conservatives are about partial cost recovery.

          But they lower taxes on the surface but go to war areas to secure oil so they can raise the price everyone pays for gas and therefore pay more tax. One scheme after another it's the illusion shit show.
          It's all they do cut services and make you pay which is not called a tax then say man look at how little you pay.

          Another one going to court today.

            Never been to Big Iron. Sounds good. If we get rain maybe.

            Ag Days is free admission.

            Honestly, Bucket and Riders, does every topic raised here relate to the government? Even farm shows? Wow.

                Thanx SF3 for letting us know about this show. Just need a little bit more rain cause all done the wheat, only a few hundred acres of Canoli and some October flax to harvest. It's been a good harvest. All dry- makes us high! May see you in Fargo, if that satellite is any indication of the weather. Who knows what these little brains can soak up!

                    Honestly brave heart if you don't like it pick another channel. Your messiah Stevie picked 78 days. By the way what has that cost so far?

                    Ever wonder why no ag issues are raised? Maybe if people didn't have their head in the sand like the ostrich man we d be on the radar.

                      Maybe others don't have their head in the sand but are out making their business happen the best they can. Blaming the government for all the ills is like complaining about the weather. Beyond your own vote it's largely out of your control.

                      As for the channel, when you post I usually do click the remote as I don't like repeats of shows with low ratings.

                        Yes. The government is throwing money at evraz place for better facilities.

                        If the shows in regina can't stand on their own - should they be there?

                        That's the attitude farmers receive from government and guys like yourself. If you can't stand on your own get out. Don't go to the government.

                        Same consistent logic applies to farm shows, research etc etc.

                          If Regina or anywhere else needs the government to put on a show the world is beyond screwed.

                            What about football fans and players, Brad, can't they stand on their 100,000 or so feet? $100 bucks each and they could have put up their own stadium for 10 games a year.

                              Jeez I forgot about the new outdoor stadium. That much like the rink in saskatoon will be good for nothing in 10 years.

                              And let's not talk about a bypass that has tripled in cost in 4 weeks. Only to lead truckers back into the city.
