Recently, the original notebook of Professor George Morrow was discovered! It contains notes from the founding of the Morrow Plots, the first experimental crop field in the US. Thanks to Funk ACES Library making it available here: bit.ly/2RZWLue

2.5+ inches of rain fell Saturday night between Dalton City and La Place. On Friday, there was evidence that my ancestors had invested in clay drainage tile to make the land more productive. #plant2020

The fields with the Asgrow rain gauges always got more rain. So I did a little side-by-side over the weekend. #plant20 #stillfarming

If you have lost some geese, I may have found them. (They do look terribly lost.) Send PM with detailed descriptions. #stillfarming

Rest in peace J.D. Power. 30 years ago, I actually met the man. His friends called him Dave. He made auto manufacturers accountable for the quality and reliability of their vehicles.

I’m playing armchair NHTSA investigator. At what point during (or before) Tiger’s accident did the hood become unlatched? Obviously it had flipped open prior to the big frontal impact. #crashworthiness #GenesisGV80

Yes Scott Sloan⁩ you can run a 6-row head with LSW 1250 tires. Barely. (Rears are LSW 850.) No, the tank extension doesn’t really hold 450.

Happy 100th birthday to my uncle George Fathauer, inventor of ground speed radar for ag, shaft speed monitor for combines, and planter monitor with electronic (not mechanical) seed sensors. Perhaps you’ve experienced one of these on your farm. #legacy #AgTwitter #dickeyJOHN

I pre-ordered a #Rivian 39 months ago, and I still don’t have an estimated delivery date. Customer support won’t even give me an estimated delivery YEAR. Rivian has room for improvement in the communication department.
