Many Iowa farmers will build new storage space for corn and other grains this year. It's important that this storage space be built properly. A little sound planning ahead of time can save you a good many dollars in the long pull.

Conditions are not ideal for the beginner today. Costs are high. Future incomes are apt to be lower. Beginning farmers can adjust to conditions as they find them.

Iowa farmers will have big supplies of old corn left over when the new crop is ready for harvest. If this new crop is a good one (farmers can make a good appraisal of crop prospects by late summer) they will have to decide what to do with the old crop by harvest.

How have farm practices in your community changed during the last 25 years? New machines, new crops, fertilizers, new management practices- farming has had quite a "face lifting" in that time.
