Turd and nitrogen

[Taiga]

Hi Commie Chuckles, your assumption that only large farms and Hutterite colonies are smart and are capable of making agronomic purchasing decisions is completely false. I can’t believe ‘you NFU people’ think like this.

[SASKFARMER]

Remember chuck wants us all to sing and be the same Russian tractors and all

Unbiased advice?? I would think my agronomist who I have known personally for 15 yrs wants to see me succeed so I can show up solvent at his door next season.

Never would I take any advice from a govt or NFU hack or someone with zero skin in the game.

[SASKFARMER]

Jazz your so correct. Friends help friends and NFU hacks help each other they thrive on one failing then pick it up and look like a hero. Or the guys who pray with you on Sunday and prey over you the whole week after.

You also pay for what you get.

I'm sure chuck using similar principles in his agronomy purchase decisions as the rest of us. He just feels better when Big Brother has rules.

No such thing as "adequate" yield. Idiots.

Of course there is in Chuck's/NFU's world.
Just like Chuck keeps telling us Albertan's, we should be satisfied with adequate revenue from our resources, and adequate farm size, and adequate standard of living, and adequate energy consumption etc.
No one should ever aspire to be better than anyone else.

So you want only agronomists tied to input sales companies to give you advice? They are not independent and they often promote a product over other possible solutions that will save you money.

Large farms and hutterite colonies often hire independent agronomists to get unbiased advise. Most provinces still have crop and production specialists who give unbiased advise not linked to input sales.

What if you have no need for agronomists?
You know , believe it or not some can think and do for themselves. A lot of farms I know have been doing the 4 R’s for decades , most certainly don’t need advice from some political government hack to tell them what to do . In fact the reverse is most likely .

[SASKFARMER]

Or imagine some one like chuck advising farmers who’s side would he work for

[RTK]

I make the decisions on my farm, I consult with individuals I believe have more knowledge than I have... I read to increase my crop knowledge base... and I am married to a very knowledgeable source of crop related information. There is no way I would ever blindly follow the recommendation of an agronomist who has no skin in the game.

Independent advice - think about it, they are going to error on the side of caution; easier to say spray then later say oops I should have had you spray. Or they don’t really care about individual situations and read you the general practice recommendations (government agronomist).

Been at this game long enough (20 years) and oh yeah there is someone more senior that has more experience still able to offer his thoughts.

Do I need a summer student or a fresh grad to offer me a recommendation?

So after all the bashing and the dust cleared no one repeated the original lie about the government forcing you to stop using nitrogen fertilizer? Whats wrong?

Couldn't find any evidence to backup your coffee shop rumors? LOL

[SASKFARMER]

BS Chuck. Move on.

[chuckChuck]

SF you seem stuck in a rut with your debating skills!

You better get back to coffee shop or bar for some more evidence.

[SASKFARMER]

BS chuck you know dam well it's part of the liberal plan check in your notes from Comrad Trudeau.

Come on for once get with the program.

Bar, I haven't touched a drink since last fall when I got sick.

Part of the plan is a reduction in Nitrogen use. This whole thing isn't farmer-friendly from start to finish. They are trusting NFU for advice. Wow like lets get the bottom feeders to help draw up plans.

[chuckChuck]

Using nitrogen fertilizers efficiently and reducing emissions from nitrogen is the goal. Not stopping farmers from using nitrogen.

So you can stop spreading rumors and lies.

In other words you can understand, Saskfarmer BS! LOL

[Hamloc]

SF you seem stuck in a rut with your debating skills!

You better get back to coffee shop or bar for some more evidence.

“The federal government has stated it wants a 30% reduction in ghg by limiting nitrogen fertilizer use but has never consulted in industry or farmers to see if this is even achievable.” Cherilyn Jolly-Nagel SK delegate Canadian Whear Growers. Wasn’t hard to find Chuck2, as usual you are full of BS lol!
