Signups for the #covercrops cost-share program Farmers for Soil Health opened last month. At last month's #FarmProgressShow, I visited with #LafayetteCo #Missouri's Neal Bredehoeft, a farmer-director with the United #Soybean Board who hosted #USDA on his farm last year to promote the #ClimateSmart grant that is funding this effort.

SURVIVAL OF WOLVES IN MINNESOTA

The survival of wolves in northern #Minnesota faces multiple challenges, with the leading cause of death stemming from actions taken by the U.S. Department of Agriculture ( #USDA ). In 2022, 174 documented #wolf deaths occurred in Minnesota, with a significant portion attributed to the USDA's Wildlife Services division – responsible for mitigating human-wildlife conflicts.

So langsam geht das Jahr über seinen Höhepunkt. In wenigen Wochen denken wir wieder über den Frostschutz nach ... Letzten Winter gab es zwei kalte Nächte mit elf Grad Minus. Da reicht die lockere Schüttung (gratis!) Buchenlaub vom Nachbarn dicke. Ob aber der nächste wieder in die #USDA-Zone 8a eingeordnet werden kann, bleibt wie immer offen. #Musa #Canna #Klima

La #polinización tiene mucho que agradecer no sólo a las #abejas, sino también a los #sírfidos o moscas de las #flores.

En este posteo, @Analyssi nos sensibiliza a estos polinizadores que reciben demasiada poca prensa. 📸📸📸

A new report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture warns that forests in the US will stop absorbing carbon within 50 years and turn into natural carbon emitters instead. This is due to massive overhauls to our forests, which have seen insane levels of downsizing due to deforestation and other natural issues like forest fires. #ClimateChange #Forests #USDA https://bgr.com/science/forests-in-the-us-will-stop-absorbing-carbon-within-50-years-usda-report-warns/

This summer's #drought could leave #Missouri's #corn production static as the national total is still on track to jump by ten percent. Most other crops are also looking at year-over-year declines according to Friday's Crop Production report from #USDA.

Two firms established by the same #StLouis businessman are now one. #Roeslein Alternative Energy has merged into Roeslein and Associates, bringing under one roof the firms' waste-to-energy and renewable energy technologies, along with its engineering and construction.

Roeslein's technology has been put to use at several livestock farms across Northern #Missouri and Southern #Iowa. Last year the group received a sizable #USDA Climate Smart Partnerships grant.

Missed this from March 2022:

Conflicts of interest for members of the U.S. 2020 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee
https://doi.org/10.1017/S1368980022000672

"95% of the committee members had #COI with the food &/or pharma industries [&] particular actors, including Kellogg, Abbott, Kraft, Mead Johnson, General Mills [&] Dannon…had connections with multiple members."

The agencies behind the dietary guidelines (#USDA & #HHS) didn't disclose these COI, despite a 2017 #NASEM recommendation to do so.
