    I might have COVID-19

    I live in rural NY. The NY county that I now live in (and all surrounding contiguous counties) currently has lower per capita cases and mortality rate than Cedar county (where I am from) and its surrounding counties. Agreed, comparing states is a poor comparison since there is much so...

    I might have COVID-19

    Hoping you feel better soon. Those working in food and meat processing facilities are in a tough spot. I live in upstate New York, but the majority of my family lives in Iowa. It has been very interesting to compare and contrast responses from each respective state, and also general changes in...

    MO Farmer Swindles Millions in Fake Organic Farming Scheme

    The scientific community is mixed when it comes to whether organic agriculture sequesters soil carbon. Details are important when comparing systems as there is spectrum of practices & management used in both organic and conventional. More recent research has shown that tillage is helpful for...

    MO Farmer Swindles Millions in Fake Organic Farming Scheme

    The specific question I was responding to was about whether it was possible to test crops for inorganic fertilizer use- which there is. The use of organic fertilizer sources (vs. inorganic) are more about closing the nutrient cycle and integrating livestock as part of the whole farm- so the...

    Synthetic N (i.e. produced via Haber-Bosch) and manure/compost/etc. N have distinguishable stable isotope N14 and N15 signatures in crop samples. So it is possible to reliably tell the difference in how a crop was produced. Scientists and USDA inspectors have use such methods to tell the...

    MO Farmer Swindles Millions in Fake Organic Farming Scheme

    Like every group/tribe/faction/etc. there are mostly good actors, but there are also a few bad actors. The organic farmers I work with are highly invested in maintaining the USDA National Organic Program standards, and it is really frustrating any time your learn it is not a fair playing field...

    *** Official IOWA STATE Vs #2 Baylor Game(Day) Thread ***

    Objectively, I would say ISU has plateaued under Prohm following the success that the Hoiberg era provided. BUT not all success is linear and sometimes continuity is valuable as well. My main issue is with “fans” acting like the sky is falling given the successes of 2019, and it is too early to...

    You seem unflinching to use your love of Fred as a measure for hate against Prohm, no?

    *** Official IOWA STATE Vs #2 Baylor Game(Day) Thread ***

    How many of Baylor FTs was ISU fouling on a put back after the Baylor got the offensive rebound? It is impossible to get teams to foul you, get the call from the official, and get to the line on the road. Ending a defensive possession with a defensive rebound, however, you do have some control...

    *** Official IOWA STATE Vs #2 Baylor Game(Day) Thread ***

    Pretty much identical 2 pt and 3 pt shooting % for both teams. Really the difference was ISU's defensive rebounding (i.e. Baylor's offensive rebounding). That's the game.

    What is the shooting flaw and correction you speak of?

    *** Official Oklahoma Vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    I don’t think anyone should conclude a loss on the road vs. TCU was “bad”. If they do, they need to re-evaluate their expectations. The TCU game hurts just given how close ISU was in stealing that game after coming off the inexcusable Florida A&M loss.
