My brothers called. They went to a farm auction today. One brother carries a list of the serial # of tractors dad owned. By shear luck they found this IH 826 that dad owned from June 1978-April 1980. And it came back to the farm today!

In the summer, I usually hire a local kid to help in the yard/garden. My 10 yo neighbor boy came over on Sunday to “apply for the job”. He wore dress clothes & suit coat. He told his mom he needed to dress to impress for his first job interview. Adults could learn from him. 👏👏

In the last day at a farm show, the best question I can ask is, “how are you?”, when looking someone in the eye. Farmer, agornomist, banker...we’re all under stress. And the answers are honest. “I’m ok. It’s been rough. Thanks for asking”. Simply ask. You might help.

Stop with the “I’m so busy” We all are. Just say “I don’t want to do that”. And when those who DO want to help take charge, keep quiet. No complaining, no criticizing, let new ideas take over and blossom. Stop the being the hurdle to someone else’s success.

Agitation speed DOES matter when you’re mixing a spray tank. Lower agitation helps avoid clumping & improves your spray solution. Like mixing a cake mix - follow the mixing order and use low speed to bring the mixture together well. #agronomyrocks
