Talk Dirt to Me

Ep. 215: Stranger Things and Real Farm Talk: Rations, Hay, and Seed Scams


Listen Later

In this week's episode of Talk Dirt To Me, Logan and Bobby Lee start the show talking Stranger Things plus how insanely wild 1980s movie age ratings were. You know the ones, movies rated PG that somehow slipped in nudity, language, and scenes that would 100% be R today. It's a hilarious look at how different things were back then.

Next, we jump into listener questions, beginning with a deep dive into Bobby Lee's cattle feeding ration. He breaks down exactly what he's feeding, the results he's seeing, and why he may be changing up his ration formula moving forward. Great insights for anyone running cattle or trying to improve efficiency.

From there, Logan discusses a certain man online promoting a "cheap corn hybrid" he claims is performing great… while conveniently skipping over his lengthy history of fraud, scams, and shady business practices. Farmers thinking about bargain seed will want to hear this one.

Then we dig into a hot topic: Is it actually profitable to grow your own hay, or is it smarter to buy it?

That leads into a bigger debate: Which would be easier to step into from scratch; managing a herd of 100 head of cattle or farming 500 acres of row crop from start to finish? Logan and Bobby Lee compare workload, risk, equipment, cash flow, and learning curve to give a no-BS answer.

Finally, Logan shares the full story of the big buck he recently killed, including the score, and the hunt.

If you're into farming, cattle, row crop economics, hunting, rural life, or just good conversations, this episode has something for you.
