[QUOTE="The Bachelor, post: 546536, member: 1336"] Hmmmm, Hard to answer that question for me. I look at all the technology around my farm and its the same my Father in Law was using in the 50's and 60's. I guess I would have to say that the [b]internet[/b] is the newest most valuable tool or technology I use. Here's why..... There's alot of tradeoffs out there today. Do I want to spend $4000 on fertilizer??? Thats 8 calves a year I'm losing. What else can I do.... Hmmm I can increase nitrogen by using cover crops (vetch clover etc....), or I can mob graze to get rid of weeds, or I can specialize and market my beef... All that info is available out there on this world wide web. Just gotta research it, seperate the bull from the truth and go on (Incidently bull has been thrown around since the turn of the century reading some of them ol Louis Bromfield books :) ). Yep, gotta say this internet is the best thing thats come along in the last 50 years. [/QUOTE]
