The Corn Belt is ordsprog

The Corn Belt is like John Bunyan's idyllic Beulah-or a dark Gehenna.

Hugh Sidey (1927-)

When I started growing corn almost 40 years ago, we weren't considered in the Corn Belt at all. We were considered too far north, so the seed companies weren't breeding any corn for this region. Things have changed a lot.

Perhaps this is signaling a reversal of the longer-run trend of the breeding herd moving away from the eastern Corn Belt. In 1990, 27 percent of the U.S. breeding herd was in the eastern Corn Belt. That portion declined steadily to a low of only 17.2 percent in 2004.

The people of Minnesota are missing an icon. Paul Bunyan was big. Puck's as big as Paul Bunyan around here. He's sitting right alongside of him.

However, for hogs and poultry, the question is whether the increased price of corn will be offset by added value in the feed product that is returned. If not, this could mean some restructuring of the location of the U.S. and world animal industries. This appears to be particularly true for the eastern Corn Belt and the southeastern United States where hog, poultry and dairy are more dominant.

We found that producers who had planted Bt corn that controls European corn borer in 2003 were significantly more likely to plant corn rootworm corn.

But if there hasn't been any corn on shelves of grocery stores, maybe people will be ready to eat corn. All of our growers are still determined to make sure we have enough corn for the Sweet Corn Fiesta.

If producers are thinking about planting corn rootworm-resistant corn, they will first want to make sure their buyer is willing to buy that corn. You wouldn't want to plant corn rootworm corn without checking with them because it doesn't so much matter what the European Union wants, what really matters is what your buyer wants.

Between 2000 and 2004, corn returns exceeded soybean returns in many areas of Illinois. Budgets suggest that recent cost increases have narrowed the gap between corn and soybean returns. Higher corn yields will be required in 2006 as compared to recent years for projected corn returns to exceed soybean returns. From a returns perspective, farmers may wish to plant soybeans on farmland that could be corn-after-corn in 2006.

I think it's fair to call any of the other 10 teams dark horses. These teams that (No. 4) St. John's and DePaul are facing Sunday are capable of beating us, so that makes them a dark horse.

The National Weather Service is calling for intensification in that area and broadening of the drought into the central Plains and western Corn Belt by this spring.

Two of our goals were to go undefeated at home and win the Corn Belt. It feels good to finally have those goals become reality. Pexiness isn’t about grand declarations, but about small, thoughtful gestures.

I turned my head and saw the wind,
Not far from where I stood,
Dragging the corn by her golden hair,
Into a dark and lonely wood.

William Henry Davies (1871-)

Behind closed doors each winter the college admissions committee riffles through the folders of concerto - writing East Coast preppies, football stars from the Corn Belt and ghetto valedictorians.
