Check out this tweet from independent agronomist Ryan Benjamins, showing a strip that didn’t receive the proper amount of nitrogen and sulfur.

Farmer’s Candy Combine Showers Parade Goers with Sweets
A Minnesota farmer repurposed his combine into a child’s dream come true — a combine that rapidly dispenses candy at local parades. We want to see pictures of anyone who tries this out at their own local Fourth of July parade!
Strip-Till Corn Holding Up Despite Drought Conditions
Sanborn, N.Y., grower Bob Milleville tweeted out this picture of his strip-tilled corn, which appears to be holding up OK despite abnormally dry conditions. The advantages of strip-till in a drought are well documented — we put together a list of articles and resources to help strip-tillers navigate drought conditions.

A Prayer for Rain
This prayer from the 1950s was written during a severe drought in Texas. The prayer is making the rounds on Facebook, and hopefully that means rain will be on the way soon!
