Talk Dirt to Me

Ep. 238: Arnold Quotes, Equipment Costs & Imported Beef


Listen Later

In this episode of Talk Dirt To Me, Logan officially wraps up soybean planting, the earliest he's ever finished planting, and gives an update on how the crop is looking across West Tennessee. Bobby Lee talks about cutting hay, getting fertilizer spread, and how somehow spreading fertilizer managed to keep the rain away long enough to save his hay from getting ruined.

The guys also break down their Top 5 Movie Quotes of All Time, featuring plenty of Arnold Schwarzenegger classics and some legendary one-liners from iconic movies.

After that, the conversation shifts into some major agriculture topics. They discuss E15 fuel and whether using corn for ethanol is helping or hurting American agriculture, the debate over farm payments and subsidies, and whether farmers who structure operations to maximize payments can really say they don't want government support.

They also dive into rising equipment cost per acre, what machinery expenses are doing to farmers across the country, and why lowering overhead may be one of the biggest keys to surviving in today's ag economy. Plus, they discuss imported beef and what bringing more foreign beef into the U.S. could mean for cattle producers and consumers alike.

A lot of laughs, strong opinions, farming talk, and movie nostalgia packed into this one.
