Alright Ford guys I'm looking at used Ford pickups 2001 - 2002 with the 7.3 Whats the differences between the 250 and 350 besides heavier springs, any reason to go with one over the other. It seems like 350's are easier to find with low mileage.

What is the difference between soil pH(5.6) and Buffer pH(6.4) The man told me I need to put on 5 tons to the acre of lime to bring the pH up to the 6.5 to 7.0 range. everything else was good he said ( P 112 and K 544 )

If Limosin cows( horned ) are bred to an Angus bull, what will the calves look like. color, size, polled, or horned etc. do they make a good cross?

Does anybody know of a website or other information on how to tell different grass species apart. I havent been able to find anything with good enough information or pictures to tell anything.

What advantages, or disadvntages would ther be to having Gelbvieh crossed with Angus, especially on temperment, milking, calving ease, etc. Does anybody have any opinions about Gelbvieh in general?

I have a farmer that will sell me corn and beans at a good price. Is there something that I could buy (cheap) to mix and grind my own feed. I am only going to feed 2 heifers or steers out to butcher for me and some friends. maybe something with a hand crank or electric motor driven.

What do you all feed the ones you are finishing out to butcher, Ive heard shelled corn, ground corn, with soybeans without, soybeans, supplements, etc.

I just bought 46 acres of land that i would like to pasture someday. I am going to cut some Osage Orange fence posts on my property. I wont be needing them for 3 - 5 years. Do they need to cure any time before they are used? How should I store them until then? Any advice?
