Hi, I'm Amanda! My family farms corn and soybeans in Southwest Michigan. I'm also a practicing attorney.

The New York legislature sent a bill to the state's governor that would ban neonics, a pesticide used in seed treatments. Here's why I think Governor Hochul needs to veto this misguided legislation.
GUEST APPEARANCE: Hochul must veto Birds and Bees Protection Act

Gov. Kathy Hochul is facing a consequential decision: Whether to sign the Birds and Bees Protection Act. The legislation will prevent New York farmers from using neonicotinoid-treated seeds to grow
Some of the soybeans are starting to turn!(Different field than the last post, but still a positive!)
Green soybeans as far as the eye can see. I took this photo over the weekend. These beans should be turning yellow and drying for harvest. So why aren't they? Because...the spring drought.Seeds need water to germinate. But after we planted we didn't have rain for weeks. So those seeds just sat in the dirt and never sprouted. Then, finally, it rained. And the tiny plants started popping up.The problem? It was several weeks too late for planting. The question is whether they'll be ready to harvest before the snow flies. We have shorter seasons in Michigan, so it'll be close.

The FDA's draft guidance on the milk label is a decent compromise on which the nutritional differences with actual milk must be clearly stated.
