    How much rain ? ☔️

    I would think this would mean less likely to have bad EHD ??

    Hunting strategy—It’s not a secret but if the wind is out of NE & we get 2+ inches of snow … I’ve had some dang good encounters with bucks, both in Iowa and Minnesota! Take the day off or afternoon off if you can !

    I was being sarcastic for those that didn’t catch it… I actually wanted the path and mowing !

    Tactics for stopping or nailing poachers….

    Cameras are important… I caught my neighbor mowing “my CRP” & “my weedy clover” with a nice beautiful path for our deer to walk on ! The nerve ! ;)

    Land prices summer 2025 & on….

    I hear a lot of stuff online about could be the 1980s again … & the land market will crash . First off, the 1980s are not coming back ! It was a great time grow up, but the days of minimal $$ floating around, no cell phones, no internet … it’s all changed . There was not the same crop guarantee...

    Tactics for stopping or nailing poachers….

    Get your Iowa group together & stress this … You poach a Buck at night, no firearms or hunting licenses for 10 years ? Huge penalty! Make it a serious offense !

    Bought my first farm!

    Congratulations, looks nice ! A huge key would be to not be in there all the time. It’s tempting, but lack of human intrusion really helps. Hopefully a good rut spot !

    Buffett is a legendary investor, but he’s missed some great companies not far from Omaha ! Example ….John Deere (Iowa/Illinois) Garmin (US headquarters in Kansas) Casey’s (Ankeny, Iowa)!

    Trump will replace Powell… almost a sure bet in 26. Scott Bessent is a candidate, if he’s the new Secretary he will lower rates. He’s a very accomplished financial person & knows the inside of the economy & bond market! Any slightly higher rate could be refinanced ? Just a strategy !

    Big rains last night

    Lost track of the total amount of rain in my area of Minnesota. It has to be close to 10 inches in 2 weeks. There are lots of crop fields flooded, creeks are very high. The lake I live on is up over a foot .

    Self Directed IRAs

    I work with Equity Trust in Ohio . They are fine . I’ve heard there’s options in Iowa, & Sioux Falls, SD… local would be nice actually! If you have a loan & income you will be subject to UBIT tax that defeats the purpose of an IRA (if the income is over $1000)… CRP, you know I’m not sure, but...

    Self Directed IRAs

    I’ll try to answer the questions, the best I can . 1… The value of the IRA will be the value of the land (approximately). If it’s $400,000 …your account will say $400,000 80 acres in Ringgold County Iowa as an example … etc… 2. You are limited on contribution per year, but income can be...

    Self Directed IRAs

    So yes you can buy farm land, timber ground in a Self Directed IRA. CRP is not conducive to this type of IRA… Pros… You can use your qualified money to add acres, all the income goes into the IRA. A Roth might be an excellent option! You can roll a retirement plan into this, you can take a...

    I like hinge cutting but...

    I was in ND at a wedding and we ended up in the basement at the wedding venue for an hour. A tornado hit about 30 miles away and unfortunately killed 3 people .
