Some have been extremely hypnotized by the chem , fert and machinery players in western Canada - that's what is laughable .

I agree with Klause's insights and action.
Judging from the length and number of grain bags in this area, the high input farmers are laughing all the way to the bank. They are consistently growing huge crops, its hard to stop being an efficient high volume profitable entity. If it aint broke, dont fix it.

Yup I agree , but there are more than one way to skin a cat . That's kinda the whole point I guess .
I would bet those high input guys there are trying stuff outside the bix a bit as well .

Yes I am sure as well. Soybeans, Quinoa Hemp Lentils and corn are all being grown. They are definitely working for success.

A lot of very progressive farms in that area for sure 👍

You're definitely on the right track Klaus. My son has us trying cover crops and it definitely is improving the soil. Had a well know soil scientist look at it last year and confirm it. It's taking an older guy like me time to realize that soil needs to have something growing on it all the time with various species and root systems. Been just experimenting with one quarter so far. Might eventually not need fert. Even better when cattle can graze it.
