It was too dry for residual products to recharge in some cases. And beans are shorter and we don`t get the canopy advantage this year, even in drilled beans. I am pleased with my Corvus in corn though, I think it was wet enough early that the corn was able to canopy.

On a Farmall H, we had that got seized, we soaked it for a few days with PB Blaster and WD40... scraped out all the obvious rust, got a good sized piece of wood that fit over the piston, and hit 1 once on each piston... didn't get anything the first time... re-did the PB Blaster and WD40, waited again cause we were frustrated and did it again, and finally saw a little movement. We rotated thru the cylinders till we got it moving about 1 inch, then wiped out all of the cylinders again... then spun it over with the hand crank. Put it back together.. it runs, but we need top pull it apart and do pistons and rings, as it smokes and blows out some oil. It does run and work, but we really thought we had to get it free, to be able to really take it apart, as we weren't sure we would be able to get the block into our press to press them out.

So "farmer held grain" is divined basically like a contractor that pinches a ribbon of soil and proclaims it to be "50% clay"?

I suppose if USDA announces that the final yield of a corn crop was 170 bushel and "60% of it is accounted for in commercials ....then by golly, it must be that those rascally farmers are holding "40%", by process of elimination.

Murder white woman VS.....

KNAPPer — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 23:29:49 GMT

I can translate in BA logic: A white woman is unjustly shot and killed by the police and nothing happens. The same thing happens to a black person and insurrection occurs. This is his point.

Make of his intentions what you will. Personally, I see very, very low moral standards exhibited here.

(Where does this insane idea of " Oh it may not even be illegal " come from ????

Title 52 §30121 of US Code makes it explicitly illegal for a campaign to accept anything of value from any foreign entity.

It's like arguing with a 9 year old whose friend Jimmy told him it is ok to go rob a store if it turns out the til was empty.)

I didn't realize you were the decider (well not you, but your copy & paste from elsewhere). I will stick with my statement and we'll see.

Yea, I heard the 9 year old quote on MSNBC yesterday as well.

Hey, ouch - I thought it was a pretty grown-up post, well maybe only grown-up's could comprehend it.

The pace of farmer selling in Iowa is going to slow down this week over all but the 20% of the NE part of the state that got some of those "ring of fire" rains last week....

That NW crop district grows 375-400+ myn bushel most years......SC/SE districts combined grow about 250-275 myn.....and those are the crop districts most effected right now with lack of moisture....

I see corn basis has improved 5-8 cents at my old employer in Eddyville......a 25 cent haircut on futures from the peak and no moisture will do that......but rest assured there are plenty of commercials "waiting for a pop" so replacement is likely not more than another 5-8 cents away.....

when futures hit their peak back in June of 2016, the carries out to J/J of 17 had got pretty skinny......the better choice would have been hedging in the Z 16 and rolling on out over time unless you were in IN/OH where basis was much stronger and offered some interesting opportunities that WCB farmers could only dream about this past year.....

well, we are finally down to crunch time........we have the ability to start losing, or preserving corn at the rate of 75-100+ myn bushels per day over next couple of weeks.....

would expect to see a firm open tonight based on the loss in G/E in Iowa and some others....

hang on fellas.....about to get interesting

When you said Maxine I thought you were referring to that old gal in the cartoons that the Sr gals send around to each other. Is Waters going to run for the Senate?

US And German Taxes Compared

JimMeade — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 19:15:32 GMT

The Chicago Federal Reserve Bank produced a discussion comparing US and German taxes.

https://www.chicagofed.org/publications/chicago-fed-letter/2017/382?elqTrackId=c6054eaeea09451285da641e9fb7c50d&elq=d8fdc321ead64694accbdb459b6e7dbd&elqaid=12005&elqat=1&elqCampaignId=2492

Multinational corporations have many ways to legally shift income so as to be taxed in the lowest rate environment. Nations don't want corporations to shift income to minimize taxes. Laws won't do it all, especially for the larger and more sophisticated companies.. One way is to have a tax rate that doesn't incentivize income transfer. In other words, a tax rate that compares favorably with other countries.

Conclusion

Globalization brings both costs and benefits. One of the costs is that it reduces the ability of a country to tax income earned by multinational corporations that can shift production between countries in order to lower their tax bills. As a consequence, governments around the world have been examining ways to deter such profit-shifting.

One way to deter profit-shifting is to reduce international differences in corporate tax rates. This is a large part of the rationale for the corporate tax reduction embodied in the House GOP and administration tax reform plans. The House GOP plan for border adjustments goes further and would systematically eliminate most forms of corporate tax evasion (especially corporate inversions). If passed, corporate tax reform would likely benefit the U.S. as it would stabilize the tax base; and it may also encourage other countries to introduce similar measures in their own tax codes.

Nonetheless, it is true that the U.S. is a relatively low-tax nation. Notwithstanding the high tax burden on corporate income, the overall tax rate on capital income is low. And we find that the House GOP plan would reduce the overall tax burden on capital income further below that of Germany. If the U.S. Congress does not pass corporate tax reform, other alternatives for deterring profit-shifting will need to be explored. These might include the possibility of ending the corporate tax deductibility of interest and license fee payments (both are major tax evasion vehicles), which has been discussed in both the U.S. and Germany in the past."

I encourage you to read the entire tax discussion. You'll note that the German consumption tax (value added and sales tax) is much higher than the US.

The US tax rate is less than 30% of GDP, Germany is under 40%. Quite a difference.

For 2015, the US Income Tax is about 63% of tax revenues, Germany is about 51%. US consumption tax is about 22% vs Germany 45% and property tax is US 13% of total tax revenues and Germany 4%.

German corporate tax is about 3% of total tax revenue, US is 9%. Is there any wonder a company would rather be taxed in Germany than the US?

"Although the tax burden on total capital income is lower in the U.S. than in Germany, we are especially interested in taxes on corporate income as this form of capital income is easier to shift between tax jurisdictions. We plot corporate tax revenue as a fraction of corporate income for both countries in figure 6. We see that the overall tax burden on U.S. corporations was just under 20% in 2015, compared with less than 15% in Germany, even after including municipal trade taxes on corporations; that is, the tax burden on corporations in the U.S. is one-third higher than in Germany. "

There is more to the story and you should read it all.

Weed control

gil.gullickson — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 17:29:10 GMT

All,

Obviously, the dicamba off-target situation has been consuming lots of writing time this summer. Was wondering, though, have there been any weed control problems this year? I saw some kochia in soybean fields when I was up in NE South Dakota in soybean fields that was new.

Best,

Gil Gullickson
