Oh man, I was trying to work that one into my post too but it was already getting unwieldy...

It’s like having Yanni on your Spotify workout playlist. It’s easier to just delete him from the playlist altogether and have Dancing Queen banging on your Walkman instead when you’re trying to hammer out that 10th rep of your bench press at 75#.
Tony’s doing the hard work and spotting for us.

Sad fact of the matter is, every generation gets further removed from agriculture and could really care less about the American farmer. At one time, everybody had an uncle or grandpa that farmed and they used to visit when they were kids. As they grow up and have kids and grandkids, those subsequent generations become less and less interested and removed from the “family farm” and apathy sets in as to where their food comes in. I’m one of those farmers in Cass and it’s really on us to better educate people as to how we truly care for the land and teach them about what we’re doing. That’s assuming you have a willing audience and we have to be willing participants in that process. I’ll be the first to admit, sometimes we’re our own worst enemy.
Scottie nailed it. The price of farm equipment has far out-paced the value of the product in a lot of cases. His $250k combine is used, probably, less than 30 days a year. And I’m just guessing his combine is at least 10-15 years old.
I know we are wildly off-topic - I know there is a farming/ranching category elsewhere - but one last comment. The bolded is our family's experience. Every weekend, as kids, we went to one of several farms. Now, just the one cousin (Lake Park/Audobon) and once he is done farming, he will have to sell the land as there is no one left in the family. Then we have no more farm relatives.
I hope farmers can get out the message more. I know farm-to-table is a big deal to some but just the profession of farming, people don't know a lot about it. One of our family farms was sold to the wildlife reserve and so that is gone. I am still in shock about farm equipment costs.
Well said!
But I should add I made my sarcastic comment because I am assuming some of the new people might not have known who Burgundy was. With Mr B having just posted I wanted to make sure the new people saw the direct connection and what is really thought of - He Who Shall Not Be Named. In addition, The newbies may not know that Burgundy famously posted how he had left Bisonville because of HWSNBN, as had others…
If I am wrong about some people not knowing who Burgundy is, my apologies.
But I also am glad that Tony gets to see that one or two of the Bring Back Chapo crowd are not serious about this. Glad to see that! My mistake during the Spring Season of ‘21, when Chapo ran wild with some disgusting stuff, was assuming Tony knew about it. I should have directed it to him in a pm.
Anyways, glad to see the energy and support of the new people towards Bisonville! I don’t have time to post much this winter, but still try to skim what is here to stay caught up on everything NDSU.
Common sense would indicate that as food becomes more and more expensive people would become better educated about the struggles of our farmers. Sadly common sense is no longer a common commodity. In fact as food prices have skyrocketed, some evil ones use this to blame and vilify the farmers.
There's worse things than high food costs.....like hunger.
I get a kick out of someone complaining about food prices with their $1,500 phone!
