No-tillage Nutrient and Cotton Tour.
Banding in the Snow. Dec. 6 to 10
And Now…..No-till Baby
Potatoes.

be impossible? No-till Baby Potatoes are next.
A Special Technology Tour of Southwestern,
Kansas,
You can call for a seat on the bus leaving
Denver at 12:00 on Dec. 6 and returning Dec. 9…PNW producers go to
Southwest or contact Exactrix.
Timing is Great for beating back the cost of
production per bushel produced.
Dec. 6 to 10, an outstanding tour and lots
of new technology pockets to discuss to drive costs lower and raise
more of it.
Here is what we will see.

a report on telemetry and stored soil moisture from the “heart of

Mustang Tool Bar at Liberal, KS, Keating
Tractor. Ready for 7,000 acres of rental application between
December and May of 2019.
12
Panhandle, Texas, making good
yields….each round bale is worth about $900. A CS690. A stripper.
This is a good crop.
13
Highly efficient. A big change in cotton,
like going from horses to tractors.
Like parking the stationary thresher and
going to a self-propelled combine.
A Big Leap ahead for Cotton. CP690, A
picker.
“Flat Amazing , Totally changes Cotton
and the Game Plan.” GJS

John Cory says , “
The bale is tight, Guy “.

Definitely a place for GMO,
Cotton performs to the max with subsurface drip irrigation,
John was impressed, this was a highlight
on Nov. 29, 18 at Amarillo Farm Show.
16
More for Less. About 12 cents per pound to
harvest and bale.
A very exciting time for Cotton Producers at
Panhandle, Texas.
About 4 to 6 jobs eliminated for an average
cotton farmer, so 12 cents may seem like a
lot….but really the harvest cost is probably for free.
Check out the sticker on the left lower side
of the round bale, properly identified,
and ready for the Gin, hauled on a
Step Deck or an RGN. About 4,200 lbs. per bale and 10 bales per
load.
