We sure did get off course guess we were agreeing too much so you guys had to start in with you theories on gylphosate, fisarium and so on. Klause in all fairness can you call what you did Organic. Organic is 3 years transition with no conventional inputs. Also I am sure many farms can cut fert for one or 2 years and experience little to no yield loss but you will mine fertility. Remember exhaust injection.... The exhaust worked good for a couple years lol... I guess if you are on mostly rented land.... If i was a landlord my worst fear would be an organic farmer.

Ya it got off track, but want to add there is a well heeled farm not far from here in the gumbo that is going "organic". These aren't the type of people who are afraid to spend a dollar in the field. They will intercrop, plowdown, and do some of the things others talk about. I highly doubt these guys are hurting.... far from broke but see a trend and opportunity evolving.

Organic got a bad wrap from past poor organic farming practices, Listen to some of the things hobbyfrmr does. IMO, things have changed in that arena. It may not always look pretty but.... The only thing that I wouldn't like much about it would be the use of tillage. I know black isn't beautiful anymore and I don't think they make it absolutely black without trash on top anymore either, I hope(?!?!?!?!?).

I know guys who will throw in the fungicide at herbicide time, or spray at the "right time(timing only)" for fusarium, sclerotinia, or ascochyta/anthracnose, etc, EVEN IF IT DOESN'T WARRANT IT OR JUSTIFY IT..... just because!!!! **** me!! And no one loves this more than the local retailers..... they love to get the "panic and sense of urgency" fueled.... well so and so is doing it. Just one guy is all it takes sometimes!



AgCelence.....LOL.
