Next 7 Days in U.S. Ag Weather: Patchy Frost, Western Moisture, and Drier Southern Plains

Next 7 Days in U.S. Ag Weather: Patchy Frost, Western Moisture, and Drier Southern Plains

U.S. ag weather stays seasonally cold with recurring frost, especially in northern valleys. Intermittent precipitation favors the Pacific Northwest, northern Rockies, and northern tier; Southern Plains and Southwest trend drier. Expect foggy mornings, brief fieldwork windows, livestock wind chill; prioritize wheat moisture recharge, drainage, frost protection, and equipment maintenance.

Microbe-Powered Soil Sensors: Battery-Free, Always-On Farm Monitoring

Microbe-powered soil sensors use microbial fuel cells to harvest energy, enabling maintenance-free, duty-cycled measurements (moisture, EC, temperature, nitrates, redox) and LoRaWAN uploads. Early pilots show multi-season operation, 5–15% water and 10–20% nitrogen savings, with limits in dry/cold soils and calibration drift. Integration automates irrigation/fertigation; hybrids and improved probes are coming.

Seven-Day U.S. Ag Policy Outlook: Key Levers, Compliance Risks, and Market Signals

Update outlines U.S. ag policy levers shaping farm finances—appropriations, safety net, conservation/climate funds, pesticide-ESA rules, biofuels, trade, labor, water, animal health. Near-term watch: congressional schedules, agency notices, litigation, state rules. Producers should verify USDA sign-ups, labels, wages, biosecurity, export requirements. Price impacts hinge on funding, pesticide, biofuel, and trade outcomes.

Late-November U.S. Ag Weather Briefing: Region-by-Region 7-Day Planning Outlook

Late-November U.S. Ag Weather Briefing: Region-by-Region 7-Day Planning Outlook

Late-November U.S. ag outlook: expanding frost/freezes, Pacific systems reloading the West/Northern Tier, periodic fronts bringing light to moderate precip and lake-effect to the Corn Belt/Northeast, Gulf-fed showers in Delta/Southeast. Fieldwork windows brief; manage livestock cold stress, storage humidity, drainage/erosion in the wet Northwest, and Central Valley fog.

Making Fertilizer Where It's Used: The Rise of Farm-Scale Green Ammonia

Making Fertilizer Where It's Used: The Rise of Farm-Scale Green Ammonia

Farm-scale green ammonia microplants produce fertilizer from air, water, and renewable electricity, decentralizing supply from gas-based mega-plants. Containerized systems pair electrolysis, air separation, and compact Haber–Bosch loops, needing 9–12 MWh/tonne. Economics hinge on power prices, utilization, and incentives. With safety, permitting, and integration, growers gain resilient, lower-carbon, locally controlled nitrogen.

Federal Ag Policy Watch: Farm Bill Baseline Battles, Rulemaking Hotspots, and the Week Ahead

Federal Ag Policy Watch: Farm Bill Baseline Battles, Rulemaking Hotspots, and the Week Ahead

U.S. agriculture policy remains in a holding pattern centered on Farm Bill reauthorization, annual appropriations, and rulemaking across competition, labeling, pesticides, and climate programs. Ongoing labor, trade, state rules, and court cases drive uncertainty. Stakeholders should prepare, monitor upcoming filings, and keep flexible plans for funding, compliance, and contracts.

Holiday Lull, Data Deluge Ahead: Markets Brace for Jobs Report and Fed Cues

Holiday Lull, Data Deluge Ahead: Markets Brace for Jobs Report and Fed Cues

Markets were quiet amid Thanksgiving, with thin liquidity and few catalysts. Attention shifts to a data-packed week—ISM, JOLTS, ADP, services, claims, and the November jobs report—testing soft-landing hopes, guiding Fed expectations, and steering rates, dollar, equities, credit, and commodities amid month-end rebalancing and supply dynamics.

From Farm Bill to Barn Dance: How November 28 Shaped American Agriculture

From Farm Bill to Barn Dance: How November 28 Shaped American Agriculture

November 28 marks pivotal moments in U.S. agriculture: the 1990 farm bill that created national organic standards, defined sustainable agriculture, expanded conservation, and boosted export promotion; the 1925 WSM Barn Dance that became the Grand Ole Opry; and recurring Thanksgiving dynamics that shape harvest, livestock movement, and holiday supply chains.

Late-November U.S. Ag Weather Outlook: Wet Northwest, Wintry North, Variable Plains, Gulf-Fed Showers

Late-November U.S. Ag Weather Outlook: Wet Northwest, Wintry North, Variable Plains, Gulf-Fed Showers

Late-November patterns bring wet Northwest with mountain snow, variable northern-tier systems, and periodic Gulf-fed showers in the Delta/Southeast; Southwest largely dry. Plains and Corn Belt alternate dry spells and damp pulses. Impacts include limited field windows, soil recharge, wheat establishment, fog, frost, livestock wind chill, and mountain travel issues.

Anaerobic Membrane Bioreactors: Turning Manure into Clean Water, Energy, and Fertilizer

Anaerobic Membrane Bioreactors: Turning Manure into Clean Water, Energy, and Fertilizer

AnMBRs pair anaerobic digestion with micro/ultrafiltration to turn manure into three assets: biogas energy, reusable permeate water, and concentrated nutrients for recovery (struvite, ammonium). They enable higher loading, smaller volumes, fewer odors, and compliance benefits, aided by sensors and modular designs, though fouling, pretreatment, and costs require careful management.

From Holiday Pause to December Pace: Agriculture Policy Set for Funding and Regulatory Moves

From Holiday Pause to December Pace: Agriculture Policy Set for Funding and Regulatory Moves

Thanksgiving muted public federal agriculture activity, but behind-the-scenes positioning continues. Early December could bring movement on funding, oversight, and rules affecting producers—spanning conservation, biofuels, trade, labor, pesticides/ESA, water and animal health, and competition. Expect routine notices Friday, committee calendars over weekend, and concentrated agency actions early next week.
