Let's take a look at what's going on around the ag and harvesting world today.
It looks like Sanders harvesting and trucking has been busy lately, hauling some cement blocks. While Kylie Massingale represented Kansas Corn at the Kansas Department of Agriculture Ag Month celebration at the Kansas State Capitol, Kylie connected with consumers and legislators, sharing how Kansas Corn works on behalf of farmers across the state. She also joined fellow ag organizations in distributing Kansas-made products to legislators and their staff, highlighting the strength and impact of Kansas agriculture.
Agriculture exports valued at $170.5 billion in 2025. New data shows that farmers share of the money consumers spend on food continues to shrink. The latest market intel from Farm Bureau economists show that in 2024, farmers and ranchers received a combined 5.8 cents of every food dollar after accounting for expenses. Please support our local American farmers by purchasing local and homegrown whenever possible.
And the recovery effort continues as far as the eye can see across the Nebraska Sandhills according to the Tri-State Livestock News who recently wrote that the Morrill Fire left behind "a landscape unrecognizable, unfamiliar, barren and bleak, blowing ash and sand fill the skies and shift the contours of hills."

Their pioneer ancestors faced impossible odds, survived and thrived, and so will they.
