    Once Again

    Here in Minnesota we have more wolves than the other 48 combined. My incident. We have registered cattle tagged and weighed at birth. Wolf spotted on our land by a neighbor. A calf was born, tagged and weighed. Next day no calf on that cow. No big deal calves are hidden. After a few days...

    THE WAYFARING STRANGER by Steve Moreland, November 21, 2017

    From photos I have seen and people I have talked to the west prior to the Taylor grazing act was not all that wonderful.

    Final Thoughts on Cherry County Wind, by Steve Moreland December 10, 2016

    I suppose I am going to start a row here but here goes. This reminds me of Ted Kennedy, a very vocal advocate of wind energy. Then when a project was announced for Old Cape Cod his tune changed. Cape Cod was such a special place (where he lived) that while wind energy was still a great idea just...

    Final Thoughts on Cherry County Wind, by Steve Moreland December 10, 2016

    So the issue is reduced property values. I do know a little about that. I have a close neighbor across the road who has 7 acres, 2 horses and 100 plus junk cars and other scrap. I own land on 2 sides and a son owns land on the other sides. This eye sore does not enhance our property values. Down...

    Final Thoughts on Cherry County Wind, by Steve Moreland December 10, 2016

    I am curious about the negative effects of a wind tower on adjoining land. I have one of the largest wind towers in the nation about a mile from me. I have not been following this thread so help me and no I have no desire to have a wind tower. I have seen no ill effects nor have I heard anything...

    I hope none of us need one of these this winter

    Makes me glad for winter grazing and bale feeding. That snow isn't even deep, add 3 more feet on the level. But I must admit it would be fun to own. farmguy

    Bundy Ranch

    For Pete's sake stop name calling and answer a simple question. I have had no answer to a simple question. Why does he state he owns the land? Many years ago I found out that if you can't answer the question. Attack the person who asks the question. Next take your toys and go home or in this...

    Bundy Ranch

    Ignoring comments on my "hidden agenda" Bundy made a comment that he owns the land. Help me understand how he can believe this.

    Bundy Ranch

    Help me understand. #1 Mr. Bundy does not own the land, we the people do. #2 Is it true Mr. Bundy was given compensation for his loss of grazing on land he does not own? #3 Mr. Bundy has illegally grazed cattle on land not his and which he paid no rent or fees for 20 years? #4 Mr. Bundy paid...

    Permit Value

    I agree, every 10 years or whatever have a public auction. Include the right to erect semi permanent structures on a designated site if needed. I find as an American and as a person I have few rights. But especially in this country I have many privileges. Farmguy

    Permit Value

    I will never understand. From what I have read the renter/permit holder has such a rough time making ends meet. They cannot afford even a slight increase in a permit fee but yet these permits are so lucrative that people will pay some one for the right to rent land from third party, the...

    Horns or polled

    I am not belittling Horned Herefords but whenever this subject comes up some will always run down Polled herefords. If you prefer the Horned variety that's fine but it doesn't help your cattle to make negative comments about others. Like it or not the vast majority of Hereford breeders prefer...

    Horns or polled

    Most breeds naturally have horns. IMO, polled cattle within a breed have had one charachteristic concentrated on. Again IMO, this has led to downfall of other traits that are desired in cattle. (quote) In my humble opinion this argument is 80 plus years outdated. Yes at one time the polled...

    pretty discouraging

    I went to the site. There was a very interesting series of comments after the article. Quite a variety of opinions.
