2023 Fall Farm Outlook

Page 4 2023 Fall Farm Outlook Lincoln Daily News Oct 2023 The time of year has come when harvest is well underway and in fact almost over in many parts of the community, which means it is time for the Lincoln Daily News Fall Farm outlook magazine. This year, we are taking the magazine in a slightly different direction. While still farm focused, the mag is intended to be more entertaining than technical. As is always the case, when planning for the mag, LDN met with John Fulton who has served as our advisor on the publication for the last several years. He brought an interesting perspective to the idea of making a lighter, slightly less intense edition. It was he who suggested that we look at some of our age-related businesses and bring them into the spotlight just a bit. In doing so, we found that we have three family-owned implement dealerships in the county, with one celebrating 125 years this year. Giving those three dealerships a little attention in this edition ended up being very rewarding for us as the publishers, and we are happy that we had the opportunity to get to know those folks just a little bit better. We also did a small piece with one of our local elevators and enjoyed the opportunity to connect with the folks at Johnston Siding, a Topflight grain cooperative in northeastern Logan County. We also spoke with Fulton about the hot button issues of the year, and with his suggestions in mind, we narrowed it down to three, two that are always somewhat of a concern, and one that is new to us as an agricultural community. We believe that the magazine this fall will be an easy read for anyone, regardless of their knowledge or experience in farming, and we hope you all enjoy.
