The Degenerative Ag Podcast

  On this episode, we discuss one of the more overlooked health aspects of farming: sleep deprivation. How does it affect performance, what do you do to counteract the effects, and tips/tricks to maximize the little amount of sleep you get during the full-on onslaught of planting/harvesting/cattle farming.
  We also follow up on previous episode topics, fill you in on auction purchases (they never seem to stop), and most importantly, answer listener questions.
  And, how can I forget, BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!! We've got officially branded hats for sale now. Listen in for more information, visit our social media sites for pictures, and, for once, DON'T go fuck your hat!

    The Son of Saline Soil goes on an epic rant, new knives, tractor sandwiches, and injuries.  We answer listener questions, get off topic, and then back on topic to the main topic:  If we had the chance to build a service truck with multi-corporation farmer money, what are the top 5 features we'd be sure to have.  Plus, at the time of release, we officially have hats available for sale, pricing and purchasing info will be included in the next episode, or posted on Patreon and all social media's before then.

  It's that time of year, the crops are coming off the fields and the vermin are moving into the farmsteads for the winter.  Every degenerate has their own way of managing, or at least attempting to manage the unwanted pet population.  We also try and help a "friend or two" with their infestation issues.
  Beet harvest is in full swing, so we give a regional update, and of course, progress of the most important non-commodity crop, potatoes.

  We're in the heat of harvest! While the Son of Saline Soil is eating corn the long way, Larson's Plate Trevor Beets Off, Andrew is choking chickens, and Captain Corporate cops a feel off of spuds, we answer questions sent in by you!
  We will return back to our normal format once it starts raining, or the harvest is over.  Never fear, we'll have something in 2 weeks guaranteed!

  It's a rainy-day mid-harvest break.  Vague updates from the big-time farmers on how their crops are yielding, garlic is done curing and ready for sale, and the most important question: When will the potatoes be ready for sale?
  Also, we debate which produce should be classified as fruits, vegetables, and "other".

  We dive into the hot debate on weather prediction, inaccuracies in modern forecasting, which apps are the most reliable, and, the reliable old farmer's ways of predicting the weather.  Do their methods still prove effective today?
  We wrap it up with discussing rain gauges, and why we should all move to the 1/8" measurement system instead of the current tens base we use now.

  We were fortunate enough to have Captain Corporate back from paternity leave this week. (Un)fortunately, he must be a big fan of Homer, this is a long one folks.
  We give early season harvest updates, auction/private purchases, and eventually even get around to talking about the topic of the day: Tires.

  A bit of a changeup, Captain Corporate is on paternity leave, so we're bringing in the first of a few guest Degenerates, starting with the proprietor of You Son Of A Mitch Rock Supply, Mitch.
  He fills us in on life west of Interstate, current markets, and his one of a kind breeding program.  We also get an impromptu update from Captain Corporate, continue to ignore the metric system of measurement, and toss around knowledge on the best way to remove a stuck bolt.

  We gathered to discuss the possibility of designing ONE tractor that can encompass the entire workload of a "typical" U.S. farm. A very healthy debate was had, and included a special guest appearance by a pair of Patreon members.
  Also, is ChatGPT run by Germans? Listen in to find out why this conspiracy has come to light.

The farmer's dictionary states the definition of passive income as:
    "Unlike monetary income, passive income involves buying unnecessary equipment for a single use, or "future ideas", but ends up being parked in a heap with the rest of your junk.  Passive refers to the opportunity that has passed you buy.  Income refers to the ever-growing collection of unneeded "cool" things."   
  There's a bit of a lull in the growing season, so we're talking about recent auction purchases, Annual Tractor rides  honey bees, business ideas for down time, cab over semi's, cover crops, and crop rotation.
