Technology enterprise fuels young farm family - Grass and Grain

Kansas has been at theforefront of watershed res-toration in the nation. TuttleCreek WRAPS (Water Res-toration and Protection Strat-egy) is a top priority area inthe state and has receivednational recognition for itsWatershed Plan approved bythe EPA. Local stakehold-ers developed the planspecifically addressing threemajor quality issues—sedi-mentation, nutrient enrich-ment and bacterial contami-nation.On Tuesday, October 8,

Tuttle CreekWRAPS will behosting a Cost Share ProjectTour in Marshall Countyfrom 9 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.with the luncheon and work-shop following (Rain date isOctober 10). There is no cost

for producers to attend, butplease RSVP. Participantswill meet at 9 a.m. in thesouthwest parking area atLandoll Lanes in Marysvilleto carpool to the sites. Thetour families include: Borg-erding Farms, Keith andPatty Holle, and family; andWayne, Norma, and JaredLuedders. During the edu-cational tour and workshop,participants will learn aboutconservation practices thatprotect valuable farmland,reduce sedimentation, andsupport watershed restora-tion through best manage-ment practices. The tour andtopics include:• Designing feeding sites

for natural resource protec-tion, profitability and pro-ducer friendly usability• Installing healthy ripar-

ian areas using grass andtrees as buffers• Creating innovative ero-

sion control practices usingblock chute structures andcedar tree revetment.Representative Sharon

Schwartz of Kansas HouseDistrict 106 will speak at theluncheon on agricultural andfunding topics. Other speak-ers include: Will Boyer, Ex-tension livestock specialistK-State Research and Exten-sion; Billy Beck and ThadRhodes water quality for-esters of the Kansas ForestService; and Todd Reng-storf, soil conservation tech-nician of the Natural Re-source Conservation Serv-ice/Conservation District.In cooperation with and

assistance by Tuttle CreekWRAPS, Borgerding Farms

has recently installed feedlotimprovements to addresswater quality concerns asso-ciated with livestock. Overthe years, Jim and his dadJames have assisted withseveral water quality educa-tion efforts in the TuttleCreek Watershed. Recentimprovements were made atJim’s feeding facilities southof Marysville. Some penswere relocated to an areacurrently in grass, whileother pens received signifi-cant modification. TuttleCreek WRAPS providedcost share assistance for newwatering facilities, fencing,bunks, a feeding surface andan access road.Cedar revetments are a

low cost way to fight streambank erosion, and involveanchoring cut, dead cedartrees horizontally alongeroding stream banks. Notonly does the revetment pro-tect the bank from the forcesof water, the cedar foliageslows water down which al-lows sediment to be trappedbetween branches. Overtime the sediment trappingwill actually rebuild thestream bank.On the tour, participants

will see how a cedar revet-ment helped stop erosion ona 90 foot stretch of streambank along Elm Creek inMarshall County. The ero-sion was threatening high-value cropland and was get-ting worse as the years wenton. The revetment projectwas installed on April 6,2013, using labor provided

side of technology and helpwith the transition for small-er farmers,” Sylvester said.“We’re doing our best to stayefficient.”Aaron and his family

started Sylvester PrecisionAg, as a local dealer for Out-back Guidance, a companybased in Hiawatha, dedi-cated to delivering ad-vanced, easy to use andaffordable precision farmingsystems.“I’ve always enjoyed

working with computers,”Sylvester said. “My dad tookthe first steps to move to-wards GPS. We have auto-steer, auto-accuracy andauto-shutoff for our equip-

ment. The technology hasbeen very good to us.”Using these tools, Sylves-

By John Schlageck,Kansas Farm BureauThe farm has always

been a fertile field for pro-ducing crops, but it is alsoan environment rich withlearning experiences.

For generations, chil-dren who grow up and workwith their parents on thefamily farm have learnedvaluable skills. While theyare learning to sow seeds,cultivate weeds and harvestgrains, flowers and vegeta-

bles, they are also cultivat-ing knowledge.

Lessons learned on thefarm include math, socialstudies and vocabulary,leadership, not to mentioncooperation and responsi-bility.

All those skills acquiredin a simple field of soil andvegetation?

Absolutely.Tucked away in those

vast acres of grass, trees andcrops there’s a living out-

door classroom teemingwith lessons on life. Chil-dren who learn to till thesoil come to understandsuch basics as distance,depth and height. Theylearn that the plants thatbear our food came fromplaces all over the world –rice from the Far East,wheat from Russia.

They see stems, leaves,seeds, flowers and bulbs intheir hands, instead of in abook – an enduring way toplant words in their vocabu-lary. While growing up on aland whipped by the wind,warmed by the sun andcooled by the stars, young-sters learn to respect theirenvironment. They learnthat by caring for this fertileland it will in turn care forthem.

Such a valuable learningexperience can providechildren with the tools like-ly to influence family andfriends to respect the landas well or at least raise theirlevel of awareness. Young-sters also learn that hope isnot wishful thinking of har-vest success. Rather, hope isthe action of planning andplanting seeds. There willbe those years when harvestmay not occur, but the seedsof hope must be planted if

there is even the thought ofnext year’s bounty.

Learning outside canalso be fun. If you don’tthink so, ask childrenwho’ve been on a field trip.They appreciate the oppor-tunity to spend a day in anatural classroom wherethey can trade fluorescentlighting and four walls forblue sky and white cloudsoverhead.

When given the opportu-nity to grow grains, flowersand vegetables, youngsterschart the progress of theplant. They invest in the out-come and that means har-vesting their hard work,care and investment.

While encouraging stu-dents to consider growingand caring for a small plotwith wheat, roasting ears orassorted vegetables, be sureto equip them with youth-sized tools. Remember theyare still youngsters and donot possess the strength,knowledge and wisdom ofan adult.

Suggest themes for younggardeners. Try a gardentheme that appeals to achild’s literal sense, such asan alphabet garden withplants that begin with theletters A to Z. They couldalso plant a pizza gardenand grow tomatoes, peppersand onions. They could visita dairy farm to learn about

the fundamentals of caringfor cows that produce themilk that results in cheeseon the pizza. Or maybe avisit to a cattle ranch to ex-perience beef cattle that ul-timately winds up as ham-burger on a pizza.

Direct the children andinstill in them that caringfor a crop can be an adven-ture. Have them add excite-ment to the garden with dec-orations including scare-crows, painted stumps andtiles and child-sized bench-es.

Encourage them to dig inthe soil for earthworms. Tellthem to pick the flowers –when they’re mature.

Above all, make certainthe learning experience isenjoyable. Encourage themto keep a daily journalabout each day’s activity.

Take pictures of thelearning journey in the fieldand add them to the journal.Yes, there can be an abun-dance of lessons to be har-vested in the soil. Take theopportunity to provide suchan experience for a childyou know.

Grass & Grain, October 1, 2013

Today is my birthday. Not too manyyears ago that would have been writtenwith an exclamation point. Isn’t it funnyhow when we were young our birthdayswere second only to Christmas, then aswe get older it fades away into just anoth-er day? Oh sure, there are importantbirthdays like 16 (well now 17) when youget your driver’s license, 18 and adult-hood, 21 even more adult privileges, 30and the last of your insurance breaks. Isuppose all of those birthdays that end ina zero are also important milestones butreally all of the important birthdays end at30.

I remember what birthdays were like asa kid. All of the anticipation of what youmight get for a present, what kind of cakeyou wanted and most importantly whattreat you were going to take to school.Yes, I grew up in the days of taking candyor some other sugary treat for your birth-day. That practice that is now frownedupon in some schools and classrooms be-cause of the health implications and thepolicy in those places is strictly enforcedby the fun police. For the record, mycandy of choice was M&Ms; they wereplain because I think I pre-date the peanutvariety.

The cake was another difficult deci-sion. There were so many choices andonly one time that I got to pick. I think Ialmost always went with the chocolate va-riety. Mom wasn’t much on decoratingor frosting cakes, but for this special oc-casion she made frosting and decorated.Okay, so the decorations on every birth-day cake at our house were the sameplastic circus train, I am not sure where itcame from but it made two appearancesa year at our house.

We also got to pick our birthday dinnerand that was not nearly such a hardchoice. In my early childhood it was myMom’s homemade pizza. She made pizzawith square corners long before LittleCaesar’s. It was out of necessity becauseMom made her pizza on a cookie sheet.As I got older, I got more worldly andchanged my request to steak. By the way,my standing birthday dinner order re-mains steak to this day.

Birthday parties weren’t an expecta-tion at our house when I was growing up.My birthday is the end of September andmy sister’s is the middle of October. Youlearn early as a farm kid that the farm al-ways has the priority. I only had one partyand it came to a screeching halt (pun in-tended) when I ran over my friend Guswith my bicycle (no brakes and a game oftag is not a good idea). Later on Momadmitted that she was not too keen onthe idea of a birthday party and the bicy-cle incident only reinforced that idea (aconcept I fully understood after hostingbirthday parties for my kids). Our birthdaycelebrations were usually quick dinnerswedged in during harvest or wheatdrilling.

I left the whole birthday present thinguntil last. Honestly, I can’t remember asingle thing that I got for my birthday.Don’t worry, we always got a present andit was usually something fun that we hadasked for, but I really don’t recall exactlywhat any of the presents were. All I re-member was that it was my day and I wasthe only one who got presents. I do knowthat we only got one present from Momand Dad and we appreciated it.

Fast-forward to the present day, mybirthday is still a really good day. Mydaughter got up early to cook breakfastfor me and plans on baking a birthdaycake for me later on. I am sure my wife isplanning a steak dinner for this eveningand I got a couple of great, meaningfulgifts. But to be honest, the best gift I couldget today would be to start harvest.Sometimes I hate being an adult.

Maybe it is sad that our birthday goesfrom being one of the two or three bestdays of the year to just another day. Sure,every ten years is that “special” birthdaywhen everyone pokes fun at your age andmakes sure the whole world knows howold you are. I guess in retrospect, whilebirthdays may not be such a big dealwhen you get to be an adult, they are stillimportant. After all, it is a day to reflecton all the good memories and blessings inour lives that came in the past year. It isalso a day to look forward and wonderwhat the next 364 days might hold.

CDC saysproblem withantibioticresistance ishuman medicine

Officials from the Cen-ters for Disease Controland Prevention (CDC) re-cently sounded the alarmson the threat posed by an-tibiotic resistance andsaid half of the antibioticprescriptions written byphysicians are unneces-sary. Antibiotic overuse inhuman medicine is thesingle most important fac-tor leading to antibioticresistance, according tothe report.

CDC officials stressedthat the most acute antibi-otic resistance problem isin hospitals but didn’tleave agriculture out ofthe equation. The reportaddressed the issue of an-tibiotics in food animalproduction and said, “Theuse of antibiotics for pro-moting growth is not nec-essary, and the practiceshould be phased out.”

According to the Ani-mal Health Institute(AHI), the CDC report isconsistent with what re-search has shown for along time: The largest an-tibiotic resistance threatsare not connected to theuse of antibiotics to keepfood animals healthy. “Ofthe 18 specific antibiotic-resistant threats dis-cussed in the report, onlytwo have possible connec-tions to antibiotic use infood animals, AHI said ina statement.

“The report also pro-vides support for the Foodand Drug Administra-tion’s (FDA’s) policy ofphasing out growth pro-motion uses of medicallyimportant antibiotics andphasing in veterinaryoversight. We have longstated our support for thispolicy, and companies arecurrently working withFDA on implementation.Along with other stake-holders, we would likeFDA to publish finalguidance as soon as pos-sible.”

A team of scientists fromthe University of Missouri,the University of Georgiaand the Beijing Genome In-stitute have used next-gen-eration sequencing to iden-tify two genes, out of ap-proximately 50,000 possibil-ities, that defend soybeansfrom damage caused by theroot-knot nematode (RKN)parasite. This parasite caus-es millions of dollars inyield losses each year in theUnited States.

This is the first time theprocess has been used insoybean research. Using an-other genetic technique, theteam is now working toidentify the specific genethat prevents RKN from in-fecting the soybean. Withthis knowledge, resistantsoybean varieties or culti-vars can be bred for farm-ers.

Researchers believe thatthis process also can be ap-plied to other crops to mapgenes important for traits,such as yield and stress re-sponses, said HenryNguyen, director of the Na-tional Center for SoybeanBiotechnology (NCSB),housed at the MU College ofAgriculture, Food and Natu-ral Resources.

The discovery was re-cently published in the Pro-ceedings of the NationalAcademy of Sciences. Theresearch was funded by theMissouri Soybean Merchan-dising Council.

The root-knot nematodeis a microscopic roundwormthat can become a parasiteon an enormous variety ofcrop species including thesoybean, potato, sugar beet,rice, coconut palm, banana,pepper, tobacco, watermel-on, tomato and peanut. It is

one of the three most eco-nomically damaging plantparasites worldwide, caus-ing an average worldwideyield loss of 5 percent,Nguyen said.

J. Grover Shannon, asso-ciate director of the NCSBand David M. Haggard En-dowed Chair of SoybeanBreeding at MU, estimatesthat RKN and other nema-todes (excluding soybeancyst nematode) accounts forannual losses of more than$50 million in soybean yieldin the United States. TheU.S. is the world’s largestproducer of soybeans, grow-ing more than 3 billionbushels, or 33 percent of theworld’s production. Thevalue of the 2011 U.S. soy-bean crop exceeded $35.7billion. U.S. soybean andsoy product exports exceed-ed $21.5 billion in 2011.

Jinrong Wan, MU re-search scientist, said RKNlarvae infect plant roots,causing the formation ofroot-knot galls that drainthe plant’s photosynthateand other nutrients. Infec-tion of young plants may belethal, while infection ofmature plants causes de-creased yield.

RKN is a silent killer ofprofits, Wan continued.Often, it thrives as a para-site throughout a growingseason in annuals, or overmany years in perennialcrops, without any above-ground signs or symptoms.Only when harvest is overand yield has been quanti-fied is the parasite’s damagecommonly seen.

If undiagnosed, the loweryields may be misinterpret-ed by the farmer as a nutri-ent management problem.Thus, many farmers apply

more fertilizers the subse-quent year, for the wrongreason, that can lead to evenlower profit margins due tothe continued yield reduc-tion.

No method currentlyused effectively controlsRKN. Crop rotation is a typ-ical technique, but with in-complete results becauseRKN can live for a long timeand can infect an enormousvariety of plants. Nemati-cides are another interven-tion, but are dangerous tothe respiratory systems ofanimals. Biological controlis practiced in some crop-ping systems, with two or-ganisms showing only limit-ed success. Clearly the mostefficient method of controlis by using resistant culti-vars, said Nguyen.

Nguyen said next-gener-ation sequencing technolo-gy is a new and importanttool for plant scientists.

Currently, scientists usesingle nucleotide polymor-phisms to map geneticmarkers to determine whatgenes are responsible forimportant traits, such as dis-ease resistance. Thatprocess, said Nguyen, is tooslow, considering the tens ofthousands of genes thathave to be surveyed.

To speed up the process,Nguyen’s team used next-generation sequencing tech-nology to sequence thewhole genome of more than200 soybean inbred lines.Another advantage of usingthis method is that the map-ping resolution can be sig-nificantly improved – thegenes can be narroweddown to a very small chro-mosome region quickly, TriVuong, MU research scien-tist, added.

Independence, KansasIt’s that time of year

when home gardens andfarmer’s markets have anabundant supply of freshproduce just right for mak-ing salsa. Many familieshave their own favorite sal-sa recipes, some of whichthey created themselves.And, when supplies of freshveggies and fruits are morethan can be consumed,many heat up the cannerand get ready to preservesome of that sensationalsalsa for later use. Howev-er, if you are planning tocan your own untested salsarecipe, think again. It mightnot be safe for your family.

Methods for canningfoods at home have changedgreatly since the procedurewas first introduced almosttwo centuries ago. Sincethen, research has enabledhome canners to simplifyand safely preserve higherquality foods. Knowing whycanning works and whatcauses food to spoil under-scores the importance ofusing tested recipes and fol-lowing directions carefully.

How CanningPreserves Foods

Invisible microorgan-isms are all around us.Many are beneficial; othersare harmful. All foods con-tain microorganisms, themajor cause of food spoil-age. Proper canning tech-niques stop this spoilage by

using heat to destroy micro-organisms. During the can-ning process, air is drivenfrom the jar and a vacuumis formed as the jar coolsand seals, preventing mi-croorganisms from enteringand re-contaminating thefood.

Although a jar is “seal-ed,” all bacteria are notnecessarily killed. It doesnot take long at 212 degreesFahrenheit (F), the temper-ature at which water boils,to force air out, create a va-cuum, and seal a jar. It does,however, take a specificamount of heat for a specif-ic amount of time to kill cer-tain bacteria. Adequateacid (as in pickled productsand fruits) or sugar (as injams and jellies) protectsagainst the growth of somemicroorganisms. In low-acid foods, however, somemicroorganisms are not de-stroyed at 212 degrees F.Low-acid foods, therefore,must be heated to highertemperatures that can bereached only with a pres-sure canner.

Salsas are typically mix-tures of acid and low-acidingredients; they generallyhave acid, such as vinegaror lemon juice, added andare appropriate for boilingwater canning IF the finalpH of all components is lessthan 4.6. If the mixture hasless acidity, it would needto be treated as a low-acidcanned food and would re-quire pressure canning fora specific amount of time to

get the temperature highenough to kill potentiallyharmful microorganisms.

The proportions of yourtomatoes, peppers, herbsand other vegetables willgreatly influence what thesafe canning process shouldbe. So, there is no way totell someone how to can ahomemade salsa withouthaving detailed knowledgeof the recipe, proceduresused in preparation, andthe acidity and consistencyof the final product.

Please do not experi-ment with canning your ownrecipe that mixes low-acidand higher acid vegetablestogether, even with “some”acid like vinegar or limejuice added. If done im-properly, you put yourself atrisk for botulism, a poten-tially fatal food poisoning.The website below hasmore on botulism andcanned foods, as well as asection on the importanceof food acidity and canningmethods:

Your recipe could befrozen for long-term stor-age, but you will need to de-termine if you like the tex-ture and flavor after freez-ing and thawing. Most like-ly there will be changes inboth texture and seasoning.It is best to try a small batchthe first time for freezing.Many times herbs andspices are better tastingwhen added fresh after

freezing and thawing, atserving time.

A better storage optionis to choose a tested recipethat is similar to your own.USDA and Cooperative Ex-tension recipes and pro-cesses for home canning areall tried and tested, andprocessing times are decid-ed upon for the specificrecipe as provided and test-ed. We only recommend re-cipes and procedures weknow to be safe, and encour-age consumers to use tested,science-based home-can-ning recipes from reliablesources like our website.

my mom, who deals with alot of the finances, weighs inon the decision-making.”Leon and Janet, Aaron’s

parents, have farmed theirwhole lives, and the landgoes back to another threegenerations, through Lyle,his paternal grandfather aswell as his maternal grand-parents.“We currently live in my

grandpa’s house,” he said.“It’s 100 yards away frommy parents, just the way Igrew up when my grandpar-ents lived here. I have a fan-tastic extended family. I’velearned everything fromthem.”

The history of the farmdates back several decades.“My dad and grandpa

farmed near Riley, and thereis a long history there,”Sylvester said. “But whenthe fort expanded, theymoved and found groundeast of Wamego.”Sylvester, along with his

older brother and two sisters,grew up in 4-H and FFA, andhe was elected president ofthe chapter his senior year.“My mom and dad got us

started with our own set ofsows,” he said. “Everymorning before school, wehad to put out feed that mydad would grind and checkthings again at night.”Sylvester married his

high school sweetheart,Claire, and they began theirmarried life together shortlyafter Aaron graduated fromHutchinson CommunityCollege.

“At Hutch, I earned an as-sociate degree in business,and then we moved to Tulsa,Oklahoma to start workingfor two years in the financialservices industry,” he said.Due to a tree limb cutting

accident that injured his fa-ther, Aaron and Claire re-turned immediately to thefarm to help out in the timeof need.“My brother and grandpa

helped in the transition asmy father recovered,”Sylvester said. “My momand dad have graciously andgenerously given us the op-portunity to return perma-nently.”As Aaron was finding the

best way to become integrat-ed into the operation, heworked as rural mail carrierand finished school.“I wanted to make the

farm into more of a busi-ness,” Sylvester said. “Iwent back to finish my agbusiness degree from K-State. I learned a lot of fine-tuning to be more efficient,economical and environ-mental.”With the most current

technology, Sylvester saidhe worked his way up fromthe basic to more advanc-ed, cutting-edge models. Hesaid he had taken on addi-tional custom spraying acresto afford the latest equip-ment.“Due to our farming prac-

tice of no till, we needed tobe very timely with ourspraying, and the only wayto run nicer equipment wasto cover more acres,”Sylvester said. “We started

with a sprayer with 60-footbooms, and then up to 90-foot. I talked to more guysand a few neighbors to dosome spraying for them. Astrust was built, I took onmore acres and made the in-vestment in a sprayer with120-foot booms that had allof the GPS options. It haseverything we needed andmore.”Sylvester said the chal-

lenge is to stay current withthe frequent changes in agri-culture.“It’s hard to stay on top of

the markets,” Sylvester said.“While still being a style oflife, farming is changing tobecome more of a business.We have to transition tomake economic decisions, aswell as consider environ-mental factors.”Drawing inspiration from

his faith and family, Aaronand Claire raise five daugh-ters: Averyn, 8; Aubriel, 7;Calieah Joy, 5; Camberlin, 3;and Amelise, 1.“Claire is a beautiful stay-

at-home mom, and shehome-schools our three old-est. They’re all sad when Ileave, and excited when Icome home,” Sylvester said.“I get to have lunch withthem almost every day. Andthey all ride in everythingfrom the tractor to thesprayer. They don’t lastmuch longer than about fiveminutes before they fallasleep, but they love it. Iwouldn’t have it any otherway.”The Sylvester family is

involved in farming, 4-H andchurch. They appreciate hav-

ing outstanding friends andneighbors.“We have a great home

church with the Assembliesof God in Manhattan,”Sylvester said. “Claire and Iboth enjoy being a part ofthe praise band. Claire sings

and I play the drums.”Sylvester said he feels

very fortunate to live hisdream and raise his family inrural Kansas.“I had an accident and fell

22 feet onto concrete whenwe were putting up a new

building. I broke my backand fractured my skull,”Sylvester said. “Three dayslater, I was up walking. Ifully believe God is movingtoday. I rely on my faitheveryday, and I give God allthe glory.”

Technology enterprise fuels young farm family

An outpouring of re-search funds is helping agroup of Kansas State Uni-versity researchers studyhow human activity andclimate change affect Cen-tral Great Plains watersystems.

The interdisciplinarygroup — which includesmore than eight resear-chers across three col-leges and six depart-ments — has received ahighly competitive three-year $1.4 million grantfrom the National ScienceFoundation’s Dynamics ofCoupled Natural and Hu-man Systems program. Theproject seeks to improvethe sustainability of eco-nomically important agri-cultural systems, biologi-cally significant aquaticecosystems, urban popu-lation clusters and cleanwater supplies.

Melinda Daniels — anadjunct professor of geog-raphy at Kansas StateUniversity and associateresearch scientist at theStroud Water ResearchCenter in Pennsylvania —is leading the project,which focuses on theSmoky Hill Watershed as acase study. The watershedextends from eastern Col-orado to near Manhattan,

where it joins the KansasRiver. It is a narrow ba-sin that stretches acrossKansas’ strong east-westprecipitation gradient,which is drier in westernKansas and gets wetterfarther east. Other water-sheds north and southof the Smoky Hill aresimilar, which makes ita good model for otherGreat Plains watersheds.

The Great Plains regionhas longstanding waterquality and quantity con-cerns because of extremeclimate variability, inten-sive water uses and landuses.

“Both human and natu-ral systems in this areadepend on adequate fresh-water for survival, butare fragile, quickly anddramatically affected byclimate fluctuations, andpotentially face disastergiven either natural orhuman-driven climatescenarios,” Daniels said.“Our project ties togeth-er the factors that driveland-use decisions andwater-use decisions in anattempt to build resili-ency in both human andnatural systems so that theregion can thrive econom-ically, culturally, andstill produce invaluable

ecosystems services likedrinking water supply,groundwater recharge,biodiversity and recre-ation.”

The research teamwants to prevent futurewater scarcity and waterquality problems.

“This project promotesinterdisciplinary analysesof relevant human andnatural system processesthat are operating in theSmoky Hill Watershed,”said Marcellus Caldas, as-sistant professor of geog-raphy in the College ofArts and Sciences and theuniversity’s point personfor the project.

Interactions amonghuman and natural sys-tems occur at diversescales and environments.Understanding how hu-man land-use and water-use decisions affect envi-ronmental systems canbe challenging, Danielssaid.

“We have modelingcomponents that relate thetwo,” Daniels said. “Forexample, we can look athow crop pricing influ-ences land cover, whichthen influences waterrunoff and groundwaterrecharge, which then in-fluences the amount of

water flowing to the rivers,which then influences howfish are able to reproducethat year. To really under-stand this complexity re-quires a broad range of ex-pertise, ranging from po-litical science to hydrolo-gy, and one of my most im-portant roles as projectleader will be to coordi-nate between these disci-plines.”

The interdisciplinaryteam comes from the Col-lege of Arts and Sciences,the College of Agricultureand the College of Engi-neering.

Four researchers — in-cluding Caldas; Joe Ai-strup, dean of AuburnUniversity’s College ofLiberal Arts and Sciencesand former associate deanof the College of Arts andScience and professor ofpolitical science at KansasState University; JasonBergtold, associate profes-sor of agricultural eco-nomics; and Jessica HeierStamm, assistant professorof industrial and manufac-turing systems engineer-ing — will develop land-cover change and humandecision-making modelsdeveloped from an exten-sive survey of landownersand water users in the

basin. The scientists willinterview landowners tobetter understand what isdriving land-use decisionsand how water scarcity in-fluences those decisions.For example, they want tounderstand why and whena farmer may switch fromrain-fed crops to center-pivot crops.

Biologists DavidHaukos and Martha Math-er — both adjunct associ-ate professors in the Divi-sion of Biology and re-searchers with the Kan-sas Cooperative Fish andWildlife Research Unit— will investigate howwater level changes af-fect fish, plants andwildlife in streams andwetlands of the Smoky Hillbasin.

In the College of Agri-culture, Bergtold willwork with the other socialscientists to model howeconomic forces, such ascrop prices and fuelprices, influence land- andwater-use decisions.

In the College of Engi-

neering, Aleksey Sheshu-kov, assistant professor ofbiological and agricultur-al engineering, will fur-ther develop a land-useand hydrologic model forthe Smoky Hill Watershed.He will refine precipita-tion inputs to better simu-late climate variations,such as intense stormevents. Heier Stamm willtake efficiency modelsthat companies use tostreamline manufacturingand apply them to policy-making processes to reachsustainability quickly.

“This project is a greatexample of collaborativework among K-State facul-ty from different depart-ments,” Caldas said.

The research grant alsowill support several grad-uate student researchersin various colleges and de-partments.

“The project bringsfunding from a high-pro-file competition to ad-vance K-State’s reputationas a top-quality researchinstitution,” Daniels said.

Sustaining the Plains: $1.4 million interdisciplinary project studieswater sustainability, climate variability in Central Great Plains

by the Kansas Forest Serv-ice, as well as the landowner,the tenant, and their friends.The project required 12fresh-cut cedar trees (ap-proximately ten to twelvefeet tall), which were enthu-siastically provided by thelandowner. To reinforce therevetment, and provide thelandowner with a valuablefuture resource, a forestbuffer was planted along thetop stream bank directlyabove the revetment.The four-row forest

buffer was planted duringMay of 2013, and was com-prised of American syca-more, bur oak, and blackwalnut seedlings. After thetenant prepped the plantingsite using a chisel, the entire4-row buffer was hand-planted in less than twohours. Keith and Patty Holleand family are working toaddress water quality con-cerns associated with live-stock feeding. Improvementsare being made at feeding fa-cilities west of Marysville.Some pens are being relocat-ed to adjacent land currentlyin crop production whileother pens are receivingminor modifications. TuttleCreek WRAPS is provid-ing cost share assistancefor new watering facilities,pipe fencing, bunks, a feed-ing surface and an accessroad.Waterways carry large

amounts of water and sedi-ment from crop fields tostreams during major rains.As the volume of water rush-es down the channel, the en-

ergy force of that watererodes away the protectivegrassed waterway, mostoften starting at the pointwhere the waterway meetsthe stream. That process iscalled “head cutting.” Theerosion channel continues towork its way up the water-way getting longer, widerand deeper with every rain.This newly designed

“Block Chute Structure” atthe Wayne, Norma and JaredLuedder’s farm is workingvery well to solve that prob-lem. The structure was de-signed using cement blocksoriginally used as traffic bar-riers for highway construc-tion. The blocks are stackedin a stair-step fashion. Thelowest level of blocks wasinstalled at stream level cre-ating a wide pad where theflowing water enters thestream. The blocks are thenstacked in a progressivestair-step fashion movingaway from the stream’sedge. The design allows forthe water flow to move downthe created concrete blockstairs before it enters thestream.As the water spreads out

across the structure the forceis dissipated. Turf reinforce-ment fabric was installedprior to the block structure tosolve the erosion in the bot-tom of the waterway. Thefabric was also connectedinto the cement blocks toprevent water from erodingunder the chute structure.Side walls of concreteblocks were designed intothe structure to channel thewater to the stream and pre-vent destructive undercut-

ting erosion around thechute. It has been seededback to grass in the water-way and side slopes aroundthe structure.The blocks also catch

some sediment that grassand plants can establish infor even more erosion con-trol. Greg Jueneman Excava-tion constructed the innnov-ative project.

Passing down the family farm workshop planned

I wish I’d known whenwe arrived in early even-ing at the Pawnee IndianMuseum near Republicthat my uncle Troy Parkerused to impress upongirls that he was a directdescendant of CynthiaAnn Parker and the fa-mous Parker clan of cen-tral Texas. He was wellaware of the lie, my fathertold me, but as a pickupline it had immediatename recognition and justenough plausibility tomake it work. Sometimes,anyway. Problem was,Pyote was a small towneven then (and smallernow), and most peopleknew who everyone elsebelonged to, where theycame from and, seeing ashow the population waslargely Baptist, where theygoing if they didn’t mendtheir ways.

Lying, naturally, was afast track to a very hotplace—hotter even than

West Texas in July — butmore than that, trying toattach himself to anotherfamily could be construedas a renunciation of hisown kin. Nor did it helpthat the ruse was under-taken in the pursuit ofwanton desires. With twostrikes against him and ashrinking pool of unsus-pecting dupes, Troy even-tually went back to beinghimself, a son of hard-scrabble ranchers in ahard, unforgiving land.

My wife and I had cometo the museum to hearKansas film-maker AudreyKalivoda speak about herrecent documentary enti-tled “Following the ParkerTrail.” She had spent two-and-a-half years tracingtheir route from Marylanddown through what wasthen an untamed wilder-ness, often following trailsthat were little more thananimal paths. Like somany others of that era,

they might have been justanother pioneer familythat lived and died in ob-scurity if not for what hap-pened on May 19, 1836.

On that fateful morning,a band of about 200 Co-manche and Kiowa Indi-ans descended on whatwas known as Fort Parker,a heavily fortified com-pound. Unfortunately forthe Parkers, they had leftthe main gain wide open.Nine-year-old Cynthia Annwas whisked away, as werefour others, and several

men killed. The other pris-oners were eventually ran-somed and released, butCynthia Ann wasn’t seenagain for almost 25 years.She was found when TexasRangers massacred an en-campment of women andchildren on the PeaseRiver, and with great fan-fare returned to her fami-ly. The reverse acclima-tion from Comanche toAnglo proved impossible,however, and she died notlong after of a brokenheart.

I knew the story — asKalivoda said, “If you’refrom Texas and don’t knowthe Parkers, it’s like sayingyou never heard of theAlamo.” I knew about theNavajo and the Zuni, theAcoma and the Apache,but I didn’t know muchabout the Pawnee or theOtoe or the Kansa, thetribes that roamed what isnow our adopted state. Iwas hoping the museumwould enlighten me.

We arrived early. While

waiting, we wandered thegrounds reading the inter-pretive signs and gleaningwhat we could of the vil-lage and the people whoonce lived there. Whatstruck me was the view—the village was built onhigh ground with a 360-de-gree vista over rollinghills and the wooden rib-bon of the RepublicanRiver. The view was thefirst line of defense; a sur-rounding earthen barri-cade was the second.Slanting hard from a fewdegrees above the horizon,the sun brought the ter-rain into sharp contrast,and nowhere more evoca-tively than on the muse-um’s lawn. Each shadoweddip and fold was a sunkenremnant of what once wasa village.

With more time to kill,we followed a dead-endroad to an old iron bridge

spanning the river. Thebridge was cordoned off,the road closed in perpe-tuity. Backtracking pastthe museum to the town ofRepublic, we drove thefew streets to get a feel forthe place. Like so manyother small rural towns, ithad fallen on hard times.No more than a fadingshadow of itself, its shut-tered buildings and hol-low windows were open tothe sky, and the crackedand potholed streets pool-ing shadows in the linger-ing light. The Pawnees hadbeen here first and hadleft few traces other thanslight indentations on theland. It was easy to imag-ine a future travelerstanding at the spot onsome distant late-summerafternoon, each shadoweddip and fold a sunken rem-nant of what once was avillage.

The once and future Kansas

Ethanol’s legacy may be areduced role in exports, lessrisk in livestock feeding.

Corn prices were on arocket with ethanol boostersfor several years, but that’sin the past now, said DanBasse, AgResource Compa-ny, in remarks to cattle feed-ers last month in Omaha andin Garden City.

“Last year I said you justhave to try and hold on foranother year while grainfarmers maximize revenue,”the Chicago-based marketanalyst said at the eighthannual Feeding QualityForum. “Now the picture isreversed. “We’re just tryingto keep corn farmers inbusiness as livestock pro-ducers have their turn.”

Big changes are rockingthe agricultural markets.Why?

“You have been fightingethanol for corn these pastsix or seven years, but thebiofuel rush is over, and theaftereffects have reshapedthe market,” Basse said.With no plants under con-struction, ethanol demandwill be “flat-lining” into2022.

An ethanol boom thatstarted a decade ago needed5 to 9 million more acres forcorn each year and droveworld prices higher, but itkept more and more U.S.corn home while competi-tors led by Brazil reacted tofill those international or-ders.

Industrial demand is sta-ble at 4.6 to 5 million

bushels of corn each year inthe U.S., but production hasadjusted now. Normalweather will only build end-ing stocks since Brazil, Ar-gentina, the Ukraine andthe rest of the world havestepped up to supply globalneeds, Basse said.

The U.S. share of worldcorn trade has fallen to arecord low 28% compared to65% in 1979. Last year, forthe first time, U.S. soybeanexports exceeded corn.Even that stands to fade thisyear with record increasesin South American soybeanyields, he said, noting U.S.prices could be less than $10per bushel early next year,and down from there asmore South American acresswitch away from corn.

“Investor money hasbeen leaving the grain mar-ket and going into stocks onWall Street,” Basse added.“There’s no export story ingrains; there’s no biofuelsstory; there’s no consump-tion story.”

Showing a corn pricechart dating to 1866, he saidthe fall from last year’s peakcould reach $4 per bushelthis fall and should rangefrom $3.25 to $6 for the next10 years.

“I can’t really tell youhow important that is foryou in the feeding business,to have ending stocks ofcorn built up,” the econo-mist said. “The newstocks/use ratio means ashort crop in the futurewon’t bring worries about $8

corn – that tremendously re-duces your risk.”

One cure for fallingprices is to take land out ofproduction, but without po-litical intervention, U.S.farmers react to lowerprices by planting more aslong as they can, Bassenoted.

China won’t buy much ofthe cheaper corn because itmust keep its own 570 mil-lion farmers on course toproduce, and they will rampup to export more.

Don’t expect to see aFarm Bill passed this yearbut even without such struc-ture, Basse said, “We maysee 3 to 5 million acres goback into pasture in thiscountry,” as farmland pricesundergo a 5% to 35% down-ward price correction.

“When it costs $5 to growcorn and the market is offer-ing you $4, that brings up anew kind of farm crisis likeback in the mid-1980s,” hesaid. “This won’t be aboutinterest rates but rather thecost of operation versusprice.”

The livestock produceradvantage “—the outlook forcattle is pretty damn ro-bust—” will come withgreater volatility startingthis fall, Basse said.

Record low beef produc-tion in the U.S. and the low-est year-end beef stocks in10 years should push cashfed cattle to a range of $134to $138 per hundredweightfor the 2013 fourth quarter,he said. “Under the right

circumstances, $140 cattledo not seem unreasonable,”he added.

Feeding cattle should beprofitable in 2014, “but it’snot as good as it should be,because feeder cattle pricesare likely to be at recordhighs in the initial part of anexpansionary phase,” Bassesaid.

Still, the outlook is solidenough that “feedlots are aninvestment option again,”he said, citing one more rea-son for optimism.

Over the next five or sixyears, the U.S. will makedramatic strides in oil andgas production, along withCanada, both exportingcrude oil to Mexican re-fineries. “We will move fromthe largest net importer ofenergy to the world’s lead-ing exporter by 2018 to 2020,and oil prices will fall to $65or $70 per barrel,” Bassesaid. “That will put morediscretionary income inconsumer pockets, and theywill buy more beef.”

How fast will bankersopen their doors for cattleexpansion?

Interest rates are start-ing to rise, but Basse doesnot see interest or inflationmaking much of a move inthe near term because toomuchmoney is just sitting inbanks for lack of confidencein the economy and the gov-ernment.

“This is a very, very im-portant tipping point forU.S. livestock,” he said. “Iimagine bankers will be on

your side in the next year ortwo, but it takes a few yearsfor everybody to get onboard.”

Corn lagging, beans keeping pace with yearly averages

CEO Update likes what itsees in John Becherer, chiefexecutive officer of theUnited Soybean Board(USB). The publication cov-ering the association-lead-ership landscape across theUnited States recentlynamed him one of the topassociation executives for2013.

The soy checkoff pro-gram Mr. Becherer leads isknown for producing resultsfor all U.S. soybean farm-ers. The most recent inde-pendent return-on-invest-ment study found that farm-ers receive $6.40 in returnfor every dollar they investin the education and pro-motion efforts the checkofffunds. For his efforts, CEOUpdate chose Mr. Bechererfrom among more than 100association executives nom-inated for their achieve-ments in leadership andmanaging change, amongother areas.

Mr. Becherer says he’sdriven by his commitmentto ensuring that all U.S. soy-bean farmers get the mostout of every checkoff dollar.

“I’m gratified to receivethis honor on behalf of all ofour volunteer farmer-lead-ers who have put so muchhard work into the checkoffover the years,” says Mr.Becherer, who grew up on aWisconsin dairy farm be-fore earning a master’s de-gree in agricultural eco-

nomics. “The credit shouldreally go to them for makingsure the checkoff continuesto pay off for all U.S. soy-bean farmers.”

In 19 years under Mr.Becherer, soy-checkoff-funded programs have help-ed power an industry thathas made major gains forAmerican soybean farmers.Some highlights include:

The national averageprice of soybeans rose from$5.40 per bushel in Mr.Becherer’s first year as USBCEO to $14.30 in 2012. Thetotal value of the U.S. soy-bean crop rose from about$13.8 billion to $43.2 billionover the same period.

U.S. soybean acreageand production have risento record highs of 77.5 mil-lion acres and 3.36 billionbushels, both set in 2009.

U.S. soy exports remainat near-record levels andthe commodity is one of thedriving forces behind U.S.agriculture’s excellenttrade surplus.

USB chairman Jim Still-man says he believes Mr.Becherer had a hand inhelping farmers realizethose gains.

“John’s strategy, leader-ship and counsel have beeninvaluable to the soy check-off, the industry and, mostimportantly, U.S. soybean

farmers,” says Stillman, asoybean farmer from Em-metsburg, Iowa. “Withoutquestion, the farmers hetirelessly serves are betteroff now than when he be-came CEO.”

Mr. Becherer has alsoled the organization througha massive restructuring de-signed to keep USB farmer-leaders focused on theirstrategic objectives: in-creasing the value of U.S.soybean meal and oil, pro-tecting farmers’ freedom tooperate and meeting soycustomer needs with quali-ty products and services.

The biodiesel that fuelssemis, farm tractors andbus fleets continues to fuelmarket potential for U.S.soybean oil and profit op-portunities for U.S. soy-bean farmers.In order to meet federal

biodiesel-usage require-ments of 1.28 billion gal-lons this year, manufactur-ers will need 9 billionpounds of vegetable oilsand animal fats. At least 4.8billion pounds of that couldbe soybean oil. That’s theoil from 430 millionbushels of U.S. soybeans.“There’s value for soybeanfarmers from the growingmarket use of soybean oil

for biodiesel,” says GreggFujan, a USB director andsoybean farmer from West-on, Neb. “It expands themarket for our soybeans,which also increases theprice we receive.”According to research

commissioned by soybeanfarmers in Minnesota, Ne-braska, North Dakota andSouth Dakota through theirstate soy checkoff boards,biodiesel contributed to a$15 billion increase in soy-bean-oil revenues between2006 and 2012. Over thattime period, this raised theprice of soybeans by 74cents per bushel.Soy-checkoff-funded re-

search on biodiesel’s envi-ronmental benefits helped itqualify under the Environ-mental Protection Agencyas an Advanced Biofuel.Under the federal Renew-able Fuel Standard (knownas RFS2), at least 1.28 bil-lion gallons of biodieselwill be produced in theUnited States in 2013.For nearly 20 years, soy-

bean oil has been the pri-mary feedstock for U.S.biodiesel manufacturing.The soy checkoff helpsfund biodiesel research andpromotion efforts to in-crease fuel and feedstockdemand for U.S. soybeanfarmers.

It’s been said, “Free ad-vice is always worth morethan advice you have topay for.” Barb said she re-membered a time whenfarmers used what we calltoday “alternative medi-cine” on themselves andtheir animals. They hadlots of uncles, medicinemen and quacks to seekadvice from. One gavehimself a cow dose ofpenicillin and another onepoured Coppertox on asore. They both survived.

Then there was thestory from the old days,about the two brotherswhose dad bought a 700-pound Brahma bull at thesale in Eau Claire. On ar-rival at the farm, Dad diag-nosed that the critter hadlice. Lots of us save ourused motor oil for a vari-ety of uses; on the graveldrive, painting corrals,warts or cat repulser. Hetold the boys to “oil himdown.”

Junior, the older broth-er, couldn’t find any motoroil, they’d used it up on anol’ pony treating him forthrush. Looking aroundfor a medical substitute helaid eyes on the big dieseltank. He reasoned thatdiesel is an oil, or a prod-uct of oil and thus, wouldbe as good as used motoroil for louse treatment.

He instructed his youn-ger brother to pour a pintinto their hand sprayerand spray the bull thor-oughly. An hour later Dadcame up from the corraland asked, “What’s wrongwith the new bull?” Juniorallowed he had put oil onhim, just like they’d been

ordered, then added thatit was diesel.

They all went down toexamine the bull and helooked like he had beenrained on with black mo-lasses! The poor bull wasbreathing in gasps andwas weaving.

“We got to get that offhim!” said Dad, alarmed.The boys lead the bullover to the spigot, gotbuckets and a hose and, asDad watched, they beganthe bull wash. Mom had abottle of Dawn dish soap.They hosed and scrubbedand rubbed and sprayed

for an hour until the bullbegan to recover, then didanother 30 minutes to besure.

When they finished, ac-cording to Dad, the bulllooked cleaner and cal-mer. He still smelled likediesel so they powderedhim with Johnson’s BabyPowder. He smelled like anewborn when they finallywere done!

The bull survived hisbout with ‘alternativemedicine.’ Six monthswent by. He now weighedover 1000 lbs and wassleek and fat. They soldhim to a local rodeo pro-ducer and told him the in-famous “Lice Treatment”story.

You can guess whatthey named him. “Andnow, out of Chute #2,rodeo’s answer to theDodge 2500 6-CylinderCummins Turbo, the oneand only Diesel Dawn!”

Pratt Energy, LLC isonce again producingethanol fuel, vegetable oiland distillers grains. This isgood news for corn and live-stock producers as well asand the Pratt community,according to the KansasCorn Commission.

Scott Anderson, nation-al ethanol marketer for theplant, said the opening ofPratt Energy means jobs tonearly 40 local residentsand other positive impactson the local economy.

“We are tentativelyscheduled to start produc-tion following significant

improvements and modifi-cations to the plant, Ander-son says. “As a 55-million-gallon per year plant, wecreate economic activity forthe rural community, posi-tive jobs and demand forgrain and production ofWDGS.”

The plant will run 24-hours a day, seven days aweek and will ship 45-loadsof corn and distillers graineach day. Ethanol fuel willcomprise nearly 20 loads aday and Pratt Energy ex-pects one load of oil per dayas well. Anderson said theincreased number of truck-

ers coming through the areawill mean more businessfor local merchants.

“Not only is this plantproducing ethanol and live-stock feed,” Sue Schulte, di-rector of communicationsfor the Kansas Corn Com-mission, said. “It bringsjobs and economic growthto the Pratt community.”

Completed in 2008, theethanol plant ran for ashort time then ceased op-erations. In 2011 Scoularpurchased the facility and

formed a joint venture withCalgren Renewable Fuels.

“We will certainly beutilizing lot of resourcesin the community, bothsale and retail, because wehave a significant amountof employees,” Andersonalso said. “Using servicesfrom the city and the sur-rounding area will benefiteveryone. We are lookingforward to success in the fu-ture.”

The plant is located at10333 NE 30th Street, Pratt.

Danger seemed to lurkaround every corner in theKansas cattle towns. Ten-sions could often be unbear-able, leading men to look forways to relieve the strain.Cowboys fresh off the cattletrail were notorious for allkinds of wild activity. AtHunnewell a group of cow-boys carried their end-of-trail celebration a bit too farthe evening of August 12,1884. City Marshal HamRayner and his assistant, Ed

Scotten, ran to the sound ofgunfire in Hanley’s Saloon.When the officers steppedthrough the door the pistolsof Oscar Halsell and ClemBarfoot belched lead andpowder. Marshal Rayner,Deputy Scotten, and Barfootall went down with seriouswounds. A shot throughScotten’s neck paralyzedhim. He lingered for daysbefore dying of his injurieson September 2, 1884.

Lawmen on the Kansas

frontier rarely had time tosit back and take it easy.Wild cowboys sometimesacted as though city streetswere their own personalplayground. Hurrahing atown was a favorite pastime,especially when the youngknight of the saddle had im-bibed a little too much liq-uid refreshment. With aloud shout and a swing intothe saddle, his decree of su-premacy was punctuatedwith gunfire as he chargedout of town, leaving broken

windows and extinguishedlights in his wake.

A particularly consistentrabble-rouser finallypushed the citizens ofWellington too far. One nightin early September FrankJones went on a spree,swearing vengeance onsome of Wellington’s finest.As he rode pell-mell abouttown Jones fired into thehomes of those who had“aroused his ire.” The dimlight of the early morningrevealed the silhouette of

the errant cowboy danglingat the end of a rope in thenew courthouse yard.

Death was certainly nostranger to Kansans on thefrontier. In time they foundways to laugh at it. Accord-ing to the Caldwell Journalone particular frontier di-version cured two salesmenof their condescendingways. “A pair of very ‘fly’Chicago drummers camedown last week bent ondoing the ‘boys’ up andpainting the town red… The

boys caught on to their styleand proceeded to give themone of the old fashionedCaldwell deals.”

A plan was hatched witha group of the men gatheredto represent a rowdy crowd.Several of them rushed intothe drummers’ room whilethey were sleeping. Once in-side, the door was lockedwhile the men were “uncer-emoniously informed” thata safe had been brokenopen. The leader of the gangemphasized that it would go

REAL ESTATE AUCTION NOTICE

better for them if theyopened up and admitted todoing the deed right away.Without the admission theleader did not know if hecould hold back the crowd.“A man could be hung forsuch an act.” Suddenly sev-eral loud kicks at the doorbrought more pandemoni-um. “The door flew openand the ‘fly’ ones were dis-closed (in) their night robes,pale as ghosts, tremblinglike leaves.”

Ed Harris, one of thedrummers, evidently of Ger-man heritage, excitedlyprotested “My Got, boys Ididn’t do this! Before Got,I’m innocent, don’t hang me!… The other one, Eli Kohn,was putting in about as good

time as Harris, imploringfor mercy and protesting hisinnocence.”

The drummers nervouslydressed themselves andwere summarily marcheddown the stairs to a waitingcrowd of “vigilantes.” Theangry-looking mob calledout to hang them; hang theburglars to save trouble andexpense. “This was toomuch for them and theirpleadings for mercy andprotestations of innocencewere simply too much forthe crowd to longer standand a roar of laughter, suchas only can go up from aCaldwell gang, went echo-ing off in many directions…”

The victims were escort-

ed to the neighboring sa-loon where Harris found hiscourage restored. He point-ed to his partner Eli Kohnand exclaimed “Dot vellowoffer there was the vorstscart veller I effer saw. I wasnot scart at all,” but theJournal noted “All thewhile he (Harris) was aboutthe color of a last year’sslicker (dingy yellow) andshaking so his glass almostfell from his fingers… About$25 paid the bill at the bar,and the Lone Star clothinghouse put up money for theboys to get home on.”

The Chicago drummershappily left town with no in-tention to return to Cald-well anytime soon. They hadseen all the diversion theycould handle in a little fron-tier town on The Way West.

The fourth draft of a com-prehensive conservationplan for the lesser prairie-chicken has been submittedto the U.S. Fish and WildlifeService for endorsement, aplan offered by the WesternAssociation of Fish andWildlife Agencies (WAFWA)and state wildlife agenciesin Kansas, Colorado, NewMexico, Texas, and Oklaho-ma.

This latest version comesafter extensive review andcomment by stakeholdersacross the bird’s five-staterange. Once the USFWS en-dorses the plan, the statescan begin implementing itin hope of precluding theneed to list the speciesunder the federal Endan-gered Species Act.

The lesser prairie-chick-en is an iconic grasslandgrouse species native toparts of all five states. How-ever, long-term populationdeclines have brought stateand federal agencies togeth-er in an attempt to bettermanage lesser prairie-chickens and their habitats.The resulting precedent-set-ting plan identifies popula-tion and habitat objectivesbased upon the needs of thespecies, not state bound-aries.

“For years, biologistshave well known thatwildlife do not recognizestate lines, which has pre-sented management chal-lenges for wildlife agen-cies,” says Bill Van Pelt,WAFWA Grassland Initia-tive Coordinator. “Often,population goals are setbased on administrativeboundaries. This plan not

only sets biologically mean-ingful population objec-tives, it also allows for re-sources to be spent any-where within the same habi-tat type, regardless of thestate. This should give statewildlife agencies maximummanagement flexibility and,ideally, preclude the needto list it.”

The submittal of therange-wide plan comes atthe same time the secondannual statistically-valid,range-wide population esti-mate for the lesser prairie-chicken is being released.Analysis of the 2013 range-wide survey revealed popu-lation estimates of 17,616,down from the 34,440 birdsestimated the previous year.This population decreasewas predicted by biologistsbecause of the persistentdrought that has plaguedthe region in recent years.

Lesser prairie-chickenpopulations have fluctuatedhistorically due to weatherand habitat conditions. Infact, populations were solow during the droughts inthe 1930s and 1950s biolo-gists feared the species wasalmost extinct. However,when the rains returned,the populations rebounded.Bird populations impactedby drought should respondto a coordinated manage-ment approach.

WAFWA’s Grassland Ini-tiative collaborated with theLesser Prairie-chicken In-terstate Working Group,which is composed of biolo-gists from state fish andwildlife departments withinthe range of the species, theBureau of Land Manage-

ment, and Western EcoSys-tems Technology, Inc. to con-duct a large-scale, helicop-ter-based survey of lesserprairie-chicken leks acrossall five states. Leks are siteswhere the birds congregateevery spring for breeding.These surveys occurredfrom March-May and encom-passed more than 300,000square miles.

The 2013 survey wasfunded by the five state fishand wildlife agencies andWAFWA with support fromvarious partners, includingoil and gas companies thatsupport lesser prairie-chicken conservation, theBureau of Land Manage-ment and a grant from theNational Fish and WildlifeFoundation.

Although drought hassignificant impacts on gamebird populations, biologistsare heartened by the factthat the lesser prairie-chicken has historicallyshown significant resiliencyto periodic climatic events.When the birds were first

proposed for listing in the1990s, the region was experi-encing a severe drought. Inmany areas, bird popula-tions declined by more than60 percent, but recovered toprior levels with a return towetter years later in thatdecade.

The range-wide conser-vation plan will help in-crease and enhance criticallesser prairie-chicken habi-tat through partnershipswith landowners that willincentivize beneficial landmanagement practices. Theplan has benefitted from ex-tensive public review andstakeholder input, includ-ing more than 70 publicmeetings throughout thefive states in addition to on-line review and comment.This includes specific meet-ings and outreach for windenergy, oil and gas and agri-cultural interests.

“We don’t want to see thelesser prairie-chicken des-ignated as a federallythreatened or endangeredspecies, however in the

event it is listed, we want tohave a plan in place to re-cover the bird and get it offthe list as soon as possible,”said Bill Van Pelt, WAFWAgrassland coordinator.

“Two critical factors forthe bird are good weatherand good partnerships withconservation groups andlandowners,” Van Peltadded. “Fortunately,drought conditions continueto improve and landowners

are getting more involved atthe grassroots level, both ofwhich are encouraging signsfor the future of the lesserprairie-chicken.”

Farmers National Com-pany has announced thatJerry Warner, AFM, execu-tive vice president and chiefmanagement officer has re-tired after leading the com-pany’s farm management di-vision for the past 26 years.

Warner first joinedFarmers National Companyin 1972 as a farm manager inAurora, Neb. He was thenpromoted to regional vicepresident, based in Hast-ings, Neb., then moved up tothe position of executivevice president and chiefmanagement officer basedin Omaha, Neb.

Warner was responsiblefor hiring, training and su-pervising field operationsinvolving management of4,700 farms comprising overtwo million acres in multi-ple states. He managed thework of eight area vice pres-idents, over 90 professionalfarm managers, all cus-tomer service activities andthe Lake Services Divisionof Farmers National Com-pany.

“Jerry has had a long anddistinguished career,” saidJim Farrell, president ofFarmers National Company.“He has been a key playerduring his career, particu-larly since assuming therole of Chief ManagementOfficer in 1987. In that rolehe has led the growth of ourfarm and ranch manage-ment business at FarmersNational Company from acentral Midwest business toone that now spans 24states.”

Warner has served on theFarmers National Companyboard of directors and itslong range planning com-

mittee, and he has servedthe farm management in-dustry as president of theAmerican Society of FarmManagers and Rural Ap-praisers.

David Englund, AFM,has taken over the positionvacated by Warner. Hejoined Farmers NationalCompany in 1987 and wasmost recently area vicepresident of farm manage-ment in their Western Area.Englund is a multi-year win-ner of the Farmers NationalFarm Manager of the Yearaward, and he was also rec-ognized by the American So-ciety of Farm Managers andRural Appraisers as the Na-tional Farm Manager of theYear.

“We are excited to haveDavid on the company man-agement team and take on a

broader role of oversight forour farm and ranch manage-ment business nationwide,”said Farrell. “David hashelped us to expand, bring-ing on new farms and ranch-es for management, whileoverseeing the hiring andtraining of several new farmmanagers for the company.”
