An odd thought about ethanol

At least in one aspect, the renewable fuel should have quelled the debunkers. The cars and pickups you drive are running longer than ever. Recently I was having dinner with a few farmers and we got to talking about ethanol - they are members of their state's commodity groups and they support ethanol. And I was sharing how whenever I write about ethanol, I will get a note or comment from someone who hates the fuel. It doesn't happen every time (and ethanol haters are welcome to comment below) but it does happen. After all these years of burning E10 (or higher) in our gasoline, I still have people claiming the fuel is a disaster for cars and longevity, etc. And for very old cars that could very well be true, but it sure isn't for newer cars. I'll share an interesting fact. During the Detroit Auto Show - or the North American International Auto Show - on a radio interview one executive noted that while car sales are rising again, well past the slump of 2008, there

CULTIVO: Coliflor

Brassica oleracea var botrytis Descripción En tiempos muy antiguos nadie comía coliflor; sólo se usaba para tratar algunos malestares, como el dolor de cabeza. Emparentada estrechamente con el brócoli, esta hortaliza encontró por fin su camino hacia la mesa y desde hace mucho se utiliza para acompañar comidas, pues es una apetitosa opción para preparar caldos, guisados, ensaladas y hasta postres. Además, tiene vitamina C y vitamina B6, sin considerar otros minerales necesarios para la salud, como el potasio, el calcio y el fósforo. Cabeza blanca La coliflor es una planta de ciclo anual. Tiene raíces muy ramificadas y profundas, que a veces se hunden más de un metro en la tierra. El tallo, por el contrario, es pequeño, sin ramas, con una altura de cinco a diez centímetros. La parte de la planta que se come se forma donde termina el tallo y está constituida por un conjunto de flores abortivas con un pedúnculo corto y carnoso. Esta inflorescencia por lo general es de co

Five Essentials Of Successful Ranches

Strategic Planning: Hollistic And Integrative Nearly 20 years ago, I was asked to give a talk to several groups about “10 ideas or practices from which our ranch has benefited the most in the last five years.” I made the list of 10 and gave the talks, which seemed to be well received. Since then I have reviewed the talk on several occasions. I soon consolidated the list to five and remain satisfied that they are essential to good success and, when thought of broadly, cover everything a manager needs to consider to have excellent results. Five essentials A lifelong approach to management needs to be both integrative and holistic. We must strive for continuous improvement of the key resources. On most ranches these will be land, livestock, and people; but could expand to include wildlife or other resources. We must assemble and use good analysis and decision-making tools. We must wage war on cost. We must place an emphasis on marketing. Over time in this column, I wil
