Tomorrow's Ag Professionals Ag-Based Companies Use Innovative Methods to Attract New Employees

Micah Duvick grew up on a small farm near Sandwich, Ill., his family involved in corn and soybean production. He knew the operation wasn't large enough to support him along with his parents, so he headed off to school in Missouri to the College of the Ozarks. While there, Duvick learned about an internship program for college students with the Elburn Cooperative Company, the very same cooperative that buys his family's grain. As an intern, he treated seeds and scouted crops. After graduating from college, Elburn hired him full time at its Sycamore agronomy location. "I like the level of responsibility they give me," says Duvick, who graduated with majors in ag business and animal science. "That's the one thing that really attracted me, that and they're not afraid to throw you into the job." RECRUITING CHALLENGES Ann Bindseil, human resources manager for Elburn Cooperative, knows the importance of attracting young talent like Duvick. She als...

Agricultura sociológica y ecológica

Creo que no es necesario, a modo de introducción, explicar la urgente necesidad de reconversión e innovación que requiere la agricultura española. “Por último, el agrónomo no debe limitarse como ha sucedido por la escasez de luces, al corto número de plantas que maneja de ordinario, sino que ha de aspirar a enriquecerse con todas las que pueda descubrir útiles ya por su productos, ya para aprovechar uno u otro terreno y ya por otros motivos,... y así podrá introducir otras muchas en cultivo para nunca hallarse falto de recursos en cualquier paraje y clima que se encuentre.” (Sebastián Eugenio Vela, en Arias y Costa (1819) Colección de disertaciones sobre varios puntos agronómicos leídas en la Cátedra de Agricultura del Real Jardín Botánico de Madrid.) Creo que no es necesario, a modo de introducción, explicar la urgente necesidad de reconversión e innovación que requiere la agricultura española. Debemos responder a los grandes cambios que nuestro sector agrícola es...

When to Hire a Non-Family Leader... suena raro ¿no? pero es de los articulos obligados

En este artículo tocamos temas difíciles para algunas generaciones...Nos cuesta mucho aceptar que, alla afuera, puede haber alguien con mayor capacidad que nosotros o nuestros familiares directos. No aceptamos que "ser familia" no quiere decir que estemos capacitados para hacer bien las cosas. Es un paso dificil pero... si es por el bien del negocio, hay que darlo... Investment firms have a quote that flashes at the end of their commercials or is written in small-type on their marketing materials: "Past performance is not an indicator of future results." Because something worked before does not mean it will work again. So in the spirit of disclaimers, here is one for the family business: Family membership is not an indicator of successful family business leadership. While a good number of farms and ranches have survived several generations with a family member at the helm, more and more agricultural family business members are beginning to ask the...

Leaf Illustrations and Charts to Help Diagnose Plant Nutrient Deficiencies

For the farmer or gardener, it is important to be able to read your plant. The seasoned grower develops an intuitive sense over time in response to plant signals of stress. The key is observing and being able to notice unhealthy leaves, and developing the ability to understand what the plant’s leaf is telling you. Something to note is that a young leaf’s message differs from an old leaf’s message. In this post, I have assembled a number of good graphics to help you do just that. While there is some overlap between the illustrations, they should be helpful as a whole in helping you figure out your specific problem.

Merial Introduces LONGRANGE™ (eprinomectin)

The first extended-release injectable cattle dewormer that offers season-long persistent parasite control. LONGRANGE™ (eprinomectin), from Merial, is the first extended-release injectable cattle dewormer that provides cattle producers season-long persistent parasite control for 100 to 150 days in a single dose, dependent on parasite species.1. The parasite protection LONGRANGE provides lasts long enough to break the parasite life cycle and reduce parasite burdens on the pasture.2,3 It takes about 100 days of continuous parasite control to break the parasite life cycle and begin to reduce the parasite burden on the pasture.2,3 The resulting benefit of breaking the parasite life cycle is better-performing cattle throughout the grazing season and pastures with lower parasite loads. “LONGRANGE gives cattle producers a new way to think about parasite control,” says Joe Dedrickson, DVM, Ph.D., director of Merial field veterinary services. “Instead of treating cattle up to three to four ti...
