North Cedar Land Lab update:

We started spring off this year by field cultivating the corn stubble and planting soybeans into the east half of our plot.

Later, we baled the alfalfa on our western half (sorry, no pictures of this). After baling, we made the decision to do a later planting of soybeans directly into the stubble due to a low stand count in our aging alfalfa. The alfalfa is scheduled to be terminated after it starts to regrow.

Now to monitor progress and hope for timely rains.

Thank you to everyone who has helped us thus far, whether it be your time, guidance, equipment, or input products. We greatly appreciate your support of ag education at North Cedar.

Melmar Farms for helping us with field cultivating and planting.

Armstrong Ag and Brian Licht for seed donations.

Hormann Farms for baling.

Mechanicsville FS for chemical application.

Last week, several members of the North Cedar FFA Chapter traveled to Ames to take part in this year's edition of the Iowa FFA State Leadership Conference.

Out Chapter earned Silverratings in Chapter Exhibit, Team Ag Sales, and Farm Business Management.

While we were in the area, we took advantage of the weather to have some fun at Top Golf.

A special thanks to Ms. Ford for tagging along and helping everything go smoothly.

Several members of the North Cedar FFA Chapter joined more than 500 high school students wearing blue corduroy from 88 schools in visiting the Iowa State Capitol
Building in Des Moines on January 21st. The students visited with legislators, exhibited skills learned in the agriculture classroom and learned the importance of citizenship. This was all part of the 41st Annual Iowa FFA Legislative Symposium and FFA Day at the Capitol.

During the morning, FFA members gathered at the Downtown Embassy Suites for a brief greeting and tutorial. The program provided opportunities for FFA members to hear from Mike Naig, Iowa Secretary of Agriculture,
about the importance of agriculture in Iowa and abroad. Iowa Farm Bureau Federation Vice President, Brian Feldpausch, then delivered a message about the importance young agriculturalists can play in the agriculture
industry. Jake Swanson from High Yield Strategies then spoke about the importance of advocating for the agricultural industry.

Our members had the opportunity to meet with House Majority Leader Bobby Kaufmann to discuss issues that are important to our area.
