I applied for a license to grow hemp in 2019. I started using CBD oil this past May, and because of the great results I have had, along with other people, I am a believer in the product.CBD oil works great for pain relief. Big companies are looking into incorporating it in their products. I am a former tobacco grower, and am growing hemp for CBD oil to make some good money. It is a labor intensive crop, just like tobacco. If you don't have a tobacco background, you won't want to grow it. I believe for the short term, it will be high dollar crop. And that it will be a good paying crop for years to come. The processor I am contracting to grow for originally only wanted 10 acres. BUT, as word grew, and demand grew, he now NEEDS 200-400 acres. He has done his due diligence and really has a good plan in place. He has investors coming to him, to invest in the business. Since hemp is now legal in all 50 states, the industry will grow. I do not believe there will be enough growers for a long time because of the labor issue. Tobacco growers can attest to this: labor is real hard to find. So I believe this will revive the small family farm. In this area of Kentucky, farms are small and the rolling ridge land is not suitable for much else-pasture, hay and small acreage type crops. The fiber market, from the stalk, may also develop as time goes on, but for now, the CBD is where it is at in the hemp world. Mark.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
