There's a maelstrom of information blowing through dairy circles these days.  Matt Tranel, dairy analyst with EverAg is trying to keep a pulse on it all.

Tranel tells Pam Jahnke that there's a lot of information that could be gleaned from the upcoming World Ag Supply Demand Estimates that will be released from USDA.  While most of the emphasis is on corn and soybeans, dairy is included in the outlook.  

Tranel points to the corn and soybean estimates as a direct indicator of feed costs - which have gone up!  Will that mean dairies change their approach to animal management?

Global factors are the talk of the market early on a Tuesday morning. John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing, says there's a rumor that Iran is calling for peace. However, the source is not very reputable. More attention is turned to the US and China meeting scheduled for later this week. While primary discussion isn't expected to be agricultural, it's always an underlying factor.

"Agvocating" From The Pageant Stage & Global Rumors Impacting The Marketplace - Heinberg

Carey Jones is still working the land of his Richland County farm in the Township of Richwood. He's raising beef cattle, growing corn and soybeans -- while also holding down a full-time job. It's important. The farm has gone through seven generations during the last 100 years. But at times, Jones had to fight to get pieces of it back.

His wife, Barb, has been part of that journey, too. A farm girl herself and his high school sweetheart, she helped work the farm so he could maintain his full-time job.

They tell Teri Barr why keeping their farm in the family is now about future generations. And how it's also a way to help young people understand the importance of agriculture.
