I agree with dboll. I have worked with a small seed comapny here in NY for over 24 years either as a dealer or a district sales manager. Monsantos control over the market goes farther than any farmer or user of their product can see. They controll the gentics and the cost of those gentics. Their technology is virtually the only technology that as time goes on it gets more expensive. if seed cost goes up from year to year- it is 99% due to the increase in their tech fees to the seed company. just this year- straight RR corn which has been available to the market for over 12 years went up 14 dollars- that was Monsantos tech fee to you. I ask as a dealer and a corn grower, isnt it getting to the point where a bag of seed cost so much, that it may be better to look at conventionals with a good spray program again? I realize that RR is convenient and sometimes we need the YG for corn borer or Roootworm but lets use it in specific instances not a blanket aproach- then we will not get these GMO resistances that we are getting. thats a whole other topic

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
