Looking for a home for this pair. Purchased new by my family and mostly shedded. Think one was last year of steel wheels and other first of rubber tire - but could be wrong. Both on rubber now. And ideas who might want?

Every time I even think about buying cotton futures I’m gonna refer back to this tweet. My gin manager just received this harvest picture from his mate in Mato Grosso. Man, we are just pissing into the wind up here.

For the first time ever, we are offering up our top cut bred heifers for sale! We didn’t keep any for ourselves, so take the opportunity to own some of the hardest working genetics out there. Shares very appreciated!! 1/4

You want higher prices, talk to your industry representative about demand and demand based programs. There aren’t any. If they don’t buy into it, then hire another one.

The cotton industry no longer has programs to promote demand or to name itself other than outdated canned speeches of a once successful strategy current industry leaders dropped years ago. Most production advancements of the past 20 years have come from research of seed companies

Some people ask me: “why don’t we Boers/white Farmers in South Africa don’t fight back.” Well, we do: Ig Maas (72), cattle and lucern farmer was attacked twice in one year. First by a gang of black men in his farmhouse near Hankey. They fired 5 shots at him, one in the leg. He emptied 19 rounds on them, and they fled. Second attack a couple of months later, he shot and killed the attacker in his farmhouse. Ig says he always carry his pistol and farmers in South Africa must never get too relaxed, and always stay vigilant. #Hero. I just had to share his story again. It’s not all of us that survive 2 attacks.

PHY 400 W3FE south of Perryton! @quarterway_c says, 'it is stacked!' 2oz of Stance has been used. Todd said it's 'some of the best #cotton I have seen this year.' There's a reason it's the #1 planted variety in the state of #Texas! @PhytoGenCotton #grow23
