This wax is not hard to apply but hard to remove. If it were easier to remove it would receive 5 stars. The results are up there with the best high end wax. If you keep using this wax you'll look like popeye.
High gloss, clarity, shine pleasant scent

Deep Silver
December 20, 2012
This wax boast over 50% carnauba content. I had to try it. Loved it on my silver Challenger. It has a very warm look yet remains reflective which is a bonus for silver. A little pricey but a little goes along way so it should last awhile. Only thing I can say negative is it's a little hard to remove by hand.The finish is definitely worth the effort!

Custom training rapidly empowers insurer in new fraud solution
Embedding its own Intellectual Property into business-critical systems and applications is extremely important to this successful insurer. When it decided to deploy a new fraud solution and its in-house team had to gain new skills rapidly, custom training formed part of the plan from day one.
Following implementation of a new consolidated platform, this leading general insurer decided to update and extend its capabilities in fraud – with user adoption services, including custom training, considered essential to make its people proficient in the new technology as soon as possible. "This company's approach is to do as much as it can itself," says Elaine Clayton, SAS Education. "It was keen to become proficient fast so it could create and then extend its own fraud models. In this situation, custom training alongside knowledge transfer from our consultants was as important as delivering the solution itself. A handful of people did have programming experience, but the rest of the platform requirements and solutions in the SAS® Fraud Framework for Insurance were new to them."
From the outset, the brief to SAS® Professional Services and Education was to leave the customer in a position where it could greatly extend its new solution. "They really like to do things in-house, so it's rare for an external vendor to get through the door, so this was quite a coup," says Jeremy Clarke, Client Services Manager. With a blended consulting, implementation and education team on-site, including specialists from the SAS® Fraud Centre of Excellence, the insurer benefited from both domain expertise and deep technical know-how.
Proof-of-concept work covered online fraud, looking at inaccurate or misleading information included in insurance applications, with a model created to demonstrate the value of the technology. At this point, trainers began working with the platform administrator and end-users. "Education was involved from the earliest stages and was, in fact, included in our initial proposals," says Clarke. "We knew adoption services would be an integral part of delivery."
Driving user adoption
"The brief was to enable a small, highly focused team to acquire the right skills fast, which would typically mean a 'boot camp' approach," Clayton continues. Training needed to cover a range of technologies including SAS® Enterprise Guide®, Data Integration, Data Quality, Business Intelligence, SAS® Enterprise Miner™ and SAS® Forecast Server. "We delivered a series of customised workshops and 'standard' public training courses that were adapted to meet the customer's precise needs."
With Platform Administrator training delivered at the insurer's headquarters, other sessions were scheduled at training facilities in Marlow and Manchester. As the in-house team only had limited windows of opportunity, training was scheduled in parallel with the technology road map and delivered as the various stages of the project plan were carried out. "This meant the team got the skills required at the point they were needed," Clayton says. "We also condensed training courses and removed non-relevant content, only leaving what was absolutely pertinent. This was about enabling user adoption in the fastest, most focused ways."
Comments from people attending specific courses and workshops included: "Thorough content, easy to follow examples", "Trainer excellent at explaining new concepts and great sense of humour" and "The course was nicely broken up with time for breaks and questions/discussion... the instructor was very willing to help throughout the course." Through a combination of formal education and on-site knowledge transfer, Jeremy Clarke says, "We took them to the point where they could score applications in the ways they wanted, with user-testing among underwriters to verify model performance." The company is continuing to refine and develop its models, with plans to extend these capabilities into claims fraud. The ultimate goal is to integrate them with its Case Management systems.
'One team' approach
"From a services perspective, this is a good example of integrated delivery – a 'one team' approach," Clarke adds. "We brought in specialists from our Fraud Centre of Excellence and worked closely with the Education team to give the customer precisely what it needed. And all this was planned from the outset, with software and service costs visible to the customer. This meant it had an accurate view of the total cost of ownership before work actually started." Elaine Clayton adds, "The company understood the value of education and, actually, only ever approached SAS to do it. They did commit a sum of money to this at the start, which meant we could discuss their requirements early, then tailor delivery to match how they worked and how they wanted to engage with training. I think this project underlines our ability to scale our approach to any number of users in any location and at any time, whatever the business requirements or training needs."

Business Issue:
New skills and knowledge required fast to drive maximum value from a new fraud solution and ensure self-sufficiency in future in-house development
Adoption services including custom workshops and tailored training by SAS Education, plus knowledge transfer through consulting and implementation by SAS® Professional Services and the SAS Fraud Centre of Excellence
Successful delivery of a new fraud analytics solution, with a small but highly dedicated in-house team rapidly trained and up-skilled so they could "own" the solution, embed their IP in models and take development forward

In 2012, we co-founded the Solidarity City Network to organize to declare Toronto Canada's first Sanctuary City. In February 2013, we won a policy and in June 2014 implementation steps were established.
Right now we are working with Toronto City staff to ensure their promise becomes a reality and supporting other cities across Ontario to pass similar policies.
Visit our coalition website at www.solidaritycity.net to get the latest info. If you are being denied municipal services, and want to organize with us, get in touch. If you're a Toronto city staff person and want to be part of the campaign, send us an anonymous email.
Advocates for undocumented migrants watch the Toronto City Council meeting Tuesday as it debates a motion to improve access to services by non-status residents.
By: Nicholas Keung Immigration reporter, Published on Tue Jun 10 2014
Toronto has taken a baby step towards living up to its self-declared status as a "sanctuary city" for undocumented residents, by adopting some key recommendations.
Council voted 29-8 Tuesday to take concrete steps on a plan to give Toronto's estimated200,000 non-status residents access to city services without fear of being turned over to border enforcement officials — including training city staff and revising policies to prevent discrimination based on immigration status.
"Last year, the city just committed itself to being a sanctuary city safe for people without immigration status, but not a lot has happened," said Tzazna Miranda Leal of the Solidarity City Network, an umbrella advocacy group.
"This will help the city to start hammering out a detailed plan to make it a reality, and give city staff the tools they need to make it happen."
Today, after a marathon nail-biting debate, Toronto City Hall strengthened its promise to provide services to residents without full immigration status or all their immigration documents. Read the exact motion here.
You called, wrote, met, and pressured your Councillors and they were forced to listen. The first step is complete, and we have a new mission for you.
We need you to go out and make sure that Toronto services are now actually accessible. Sign up here and we will get in touch with you on exactly how. There is a lot of work still to be done, and together we will make it happen.
City Hall instructed Chris Brillinger, Executive Director, Social Development, Finance and Administration to put together a report on how to improve access to services without fear including training, a complaints protocol and a communications blitz by September 2013.
That means we need to spend the next six months ensuring the right recommendations get on this report and that these recommendations actually pass at City Hall after that.
Toronto City Hall is voting to keep its promise of providing basic services to undocumented residents on February 21st. We still don't have the 23 Councillors we need to win the vote. Many Councillors will be deciding which way to vote on the day itself. That means we need you, and 99 of your best friends, sitting in City Hall letting them know they are being watched.
Meet at 9am on Feb 21st at City Hall for your free T-shirt

For nearly 400,000+ Torontonians who don't have full immigration status or all their papers this is critical. This vote could mean feeling a little bit safer when trying to go to the community centre or getting your kid into daycare.
February 8-14, 2013

205 Richmond St
All events free and open to the public. Accessible space.
Migration Now! is a limited-edition portfolio of handmade prints addressing migrant issues from Justseeds & CultureStrike. In addition to the members of Justseeds, participating artists include former Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party Emory Douglas, and Undocumented DREAM Act agitators, Julio Salgado and Felipe Baeza. The exhibit will also feature a selection of graphics from No One Is Illegal Toronto, Justseeds portfolios on resource extraction and prisons, and the Imaging Apartheid poster project, based in Montreal. Programming will highlight the knowledge and experiences of activists and organizers from Toronto, and how art and social justice can impact one another.
On January 17, Toronto City Hall votes on budget 2012. Though mayor Rob Ford has insisted that Toronto has over a $700 million deficit, we now know that the City actually has a $154 million surplus.
Since December 2010, when we began mobilizing against the Ford agenda, No One Is Illegal - Toronto has insisted that we need to fight against the global austerity agenda by creating more services, particularly for people without immigration status who have historically been shut out of Toronto. Those that work and use the services, we insist, must be the ones that decide what happens to them - not millionaire politicians.
On January 17, at 5:30pm, come to City Hall to demand justice for undocumented people and migrant workers in this city. Come to ensure that the workers in this city keep working and providing services to more people, not less.
Our fight against Ford's agenda

Seldom have so many been so wrong for so long.
According to most long-term automotive material forecasts from the 1990s, the 1980s and back to the 1960s, cars and trucks now should be composed mostly of technologically advanced lightweight alternative materials: plastics, aluminum, magnesium and lightweight composites.
Steel should be playing a diminished role, comprising far less than the 55% of vehicle curb weight the material traditionally has held. And the North American steel industry, itself, by now should have shriveled into a puny shadow of its former self, a victim of low-technology products, high labor rates and its own inertia.
In the late 1980s, for instance, both General Motors and Ford were planning major high-volume programs featuring plastic-skinned cars and trucks. The end of steel's dominance seemed inevitable.
But in a stunning reversal of fortune, steel has stolen the automotive materials show. GM's APV minivans fizzled in the marketplace, and Ford's plastic-bodied truck programs never got off the ground.
And 20 years later, steel now is proudly touted as a high-technology material on some of the world's most expensive and advanced cars and trucks.
"High-strength, high-tech steel alloys represent half of the material used for the body-in-white of the new S-Class, an unprecedented percentage in automotive technology," brags DaimlerChrysler.
Two studies released at a recent American Iron and Steel Institute seminar say the percentage of steel in vehicles actually has risen over the years to about 62% of vehicle weight.
And, after having some 40 North American producers in bankruptcy as little as five years ago, many steel makers now are financially outperforming most of the automotive supply community.
The difference is higher value products and vastly improved productivity.
Starting in the 1980s, the steel industry began forming consortiums and cooperative partnerships between steel makers and their auto maker customers aimed at improving quality and creating new types of steel alloys that were stronger and easier to fabricate into lighter-weight structures.
Steel makers also pooled $44 million to engineer various lightweight steel body prototypes to prove to auto makers that steel could indeed be used to make lightweight vehicles.
The result is myriad families of high-strength and advanced high-strength steel and innovative hydroformed body structures.
Dick Schultz, project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, predicts use of high-strength steels and advanced high-strength steels, combined, will rise 578 lbs. (262 kg) per vehicle in North America between 1975 and 2015, while use of aluminum, magnesium and plastic composites will grow only 290 lbs. (132 kg), 22 lbs. (10 kg) and 184 lbs. (83 kg), respectively, during the same period.
There is still bitterness in much of the auto supply community that some of steel's recent success has come at their expense, because some steel products have been protected by import tariffs.
The price North America's traditional steel industry has paid to become globally competitive is breathtaking. In its heyday in the 1960s, the U.S. steel industry directly employed about 600,000 workers. It currently employees about 150,000, and yet it produces as much or more steel.
After being written off for decades, steel now looks like it has a bright future in the auto industry.

Members of Minnesota's sizeable Liberian community are worried about family members back home amid a recent Ebola outbreak that's killed hundreds. They're also raising funds to help stop the virus from spreading.
Zubah Kpanaku is board chairman for the Organization of Liberians in Minnesota. He says his wife is in Liberia. He says it's risky for her to be there and she may try to come home sooner than planned.
Others are cancelling or postponing travel. Sakui Malakpa is a professor at the University of Toledo. He said he planned to go to Liberia in August, but will likely postpone his trip.
Community members say they raised more than $700 over the weekend, and plan more drives to raise funds for masks and other supplies that could prevent Ebola's spread.

Pros: Easy to use, Quiet

"Good vfm. The only criticism is the milk holder inside the door. It's narrow and not very sturdy. Only 1 litre fruit juice cartons will fit - not the larger ones and we've only risked 2 litre milk containers as it looks as if anything larger would break it. Our old fridge enabled the big juice cartons to be stored in the door. If that's not an issue for you then I'd recommend as good vfm."

Designed to fit at eye level in your kitchen so you won't have to bend down to get anything in or out of your fridge, Smeg's UKFL164AP combines convenience with a touch of style. The Smeg UKFL164AP fridge is a high functioning appliance that will not dominate your kitchen, as so many fridges tend to do these days. It is integrated, so it is designed to be built-in to your kitchen, and not affect the overall look and style of your workspace.
On opening the fridge, you'll find 3 adjustable glass shelves, as well as 1 fixed glass shelf, so you can really customise your storage space, whether your fridge is full of healthy options or naughty treats. This fridge also has 2 fruit and vegetable drawers that will keep your produce fresher for longer, so there's no excuse not to get your five-a-day in every single day!
Inside the door of this appliance, there is even more shelf space, so plenty of room for bottles and cartons, and there is also as an egg container.
With an A+ energy rating, this is a super-efficient little fridge that would be a long-term investment as its excellent rating would have a positive impact on your energy bills for years to come.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 2/8/13
Brandon Lyon and the Mets agreed to a $750,000, one-year contract Friday, giving New York another ninth-inning option while closer Frank Francisco recovers from elbow surgery. Lyon spent last season with Houston and Toronto, going a combined 4-2 with a 3.10 ERA and one save. He had 63 strikeouts in 61 innings spanning 67 appearances. The 33-year-old right-hander has 79 career saves and a 4.12 ERA in 11 major league seasons. He saved 26 games for Arizona in 2008 and 20 for Houston in 2010. Lyon can earn an additional $1.65 million in performance bonuses. The only other free agent to receive a major league contract from the Mets this offseason was pitcher Shaun Marcum, who got a $4 million, one-year deal to replace NL Cy Young Award winner R.A. Dickey in the rotation. Dickey was traded to Toronto for prospects. Marcum can make another $2.25 million in performance bonuses and $1.75 million in roster bonuses. Francisco had surgery in December to remove a bone spur from his right e...

The research and technology that drive agriculture production are advancing at a rapid rate. Through The Agronomy Blog, Mosaic experts help sift through the most current information affecting crop nutrition, and provide their take on pertinent, timely tactics to help maximize production in a sustainable setting.
The From the Field icon indicates additional available information that explores the on-farm implications of the latest research and trends in crop nutrition, straight from the minds of leading farmers and retailers.
The 17 Essential Nutrients: Don't leave your field without them
Sulfur deficiency in corn can masquerade as nitrogen deficiency. Boron deficiency in soybeans may remain hidden — the only sign being a yield below optimal. Liebig's Law of the Minimum sums up the whole concept of balanced crop nutrition.
Soybean Aphids Flourish Where Potassium Is Deficient
Have you ever seen a soybean field where aphids infested some areas more than others? There's a good chance the pattern might follow potassium (K) availability. Research conducted around ten years ago in Wisconsin and Michigan studied this phenomenon in detail.
McLaughlin wins 2015 IFA Norman Borlaug Award
To raise the crops to feed the world, first you need to feed the crops. Dr. Mike McLaughlin, an expert on phosphorus, potassium and micronutrients, recently was named the recipient of the 2015 IFA Norman Borlaug Award.
Unmanned Aerial Systems for Agriculture
Interest and excitement continues to grow around the potential uses for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in agriculture.
Yield Success in 2015 Is Dependent on Nutrient Levels
As growers in the Midwest pulled planters across their acreage, many were calculating what types of yields are needed to give them the return they're hoping for.
Assessing Supplemental Nitrogen Needs for Field Crops
Having an adequate supply of nitrogen (N) is vitally important to a crop for two reasons: First, crop plants need N to form chlorophyll in leaves, and if there is a shortage of chlorophyll, the crop will not be able to effectively harness energy from sunlight to photosynthesize and form sugars that are needed as energy sources to power plant growth, as well as form carbohydrate starches in grain or other storage organs (e.g., tubers in potato); secondly
Growing Corn: Can We Do Better?
Well, let's face it: This is a rhetorical question. When it comes to corn, or any crop for that matter, of course we can do better. We can always improve upon what we do. But it's also important to recognize that we have been doing better, and for some time.
Chloride Nutrition: An Opportunity Worth Exploring
Chloride (Cl-) was first generally recognized as a plant nutrient in the mid 1950s; however, its value as a fertilizer supplement was not appreciated until the 1970s when work in the northwestern United States and elsewhere showed that crops do indeed respond to Cl- fertilizer application. Since that time, there has been a great deal of work investigating crop response to the addition of Cl-, and determining optimal management practices for Cl- fertilization.
Potash: Still Important in Bermudagrass Forage Production
Bermudagrass is an important summer perennial for both grazing and hay production, and has been a part of southern agriculture for at least 250 years. Its desirable characteristics include high yield potential, drought resistance, and a degree of soil acidity tolerance. Hybrid bermudagrass is generally more productive than common. Coastal, introduced in 1943, has been the standard hybrid over much of the southern US; however, other hybrids such as Tifton 85 have made significant inroads over the past few years.
What is Potash?
Fertilizer potassium is sometimes called "potash", a term that comes from an early production technique where potassium was leached from wood ashes and concentrated by evaporating the leachate in large iron pots ("pot-ash"). Clearly, this practice is no longer practical and is not environmentally sustainable. In food production, potassium is removed from the soil in harvested crops and must be replaced in order to maintain future crop growth.
New Year's Resolutions for Better Soil
Every January, millions of resolutions are made to eat healthier, get organized, or stop bad habits. But New Year's resolutions can be made on the farm, too – especially when it comes to improving your soil fertility.
Nitrogen Nutrition for Winter Wheat
Managing nitrogen nutrition makes a big contribution to the yield and quality of winter wheat. Choosing the right source, rate, time and place of nitrogen application improves not only your own profit, but also, food and nutrition security for people around the world.
Feeding a Growing (and Growing … and Growing …) Population
A variety of expert sources expect that by the year 2050, farmers across the globe will be responsible for feeding nine billion people. And still, farm acres in the United States are harder to come by each year. So the obvious answer to a very tough equation is that more food will need to come from each acre — in other words, yields need to keep increasing for the long term.
Using Science to be Sustainable
One of the social requirements of farming today is to run a sustainable business. But that doesn't mean science should fall by the wayside. Just the opposite, in fact. For several years, agriculture has been adopting scientific principles for sustainable cropping called the 4R's <http://www.nutrientstewardship.com>. The 4R's help farmers achieve environmental, economic and social responsibility, all while improving the soil they rely on.
Preparing Fields for Soybeans Following a Record Corn Harvest
Despite record corn yields in some parts of the country, low commodity prices may increase soybean acres in 2015. Rotating crops from corn to soybeans is a common practice; however, with the record yields comes record nutrient removal.
My Soil Tests Are Complete. Now What?
A soil test is considered one of the first critical steps in good nutrient planning and management. But once the test results come back, what's next?
Finding Spring Flexibility in Fall Fertilization
After wrapping up a successful harvest, deciding on a fall fertilizer plan is fast approaching. With commodity prices lower than in past years, the decision becomes even more complicated than usual. However, it's important to remember that with record yields removed from the field this fall, record nutrients were removed from the soil as well. In order to replicate high yields in future years, those nutrients must be replenished.
Variability in Soil Test Potassium
When we make a fertilizer recommendation for a farmer, what is it based on? It is usually based on a composite soil sample representing the average fertility of the entire field. When we do this, we fail to address the spatial variability of nutrients in the field resulting from changes in soil type, topography, previous cropping history and many other factors. Even precision farming strategies such as management zones fail to account for all of the spatial variability found in agricultural fields.
Follow Along During Our #60DaysOfSoil to Learn and Win!
If you're watching the yield monitor reveal higher numbers than ever before, it means this planning season you will need to pay more attention to what nutrients are left in the soil than you may be used to. As we celebrate harvest, it's an opportune time to also celebrate soil fertility — the most important contributing factor to yields this past year and in years to come.
Annual Phosphorus Application and Long-Term Soil Productivity
Many of the soils in North America, and around the world, have available phosphorus (P) levels that are at less than the optimum level — where crops will respond immediately to applied P fertilizer applications.
Drip Fertigation: The Future of Higher Yields?
New research from the University of Illinois is revealing the impact of drip fertigation systems.
Preparing for a Hefty Harvest...And Beyond
Record yields mean record nutrient removal.
Banding Phosphorus as a Bandage for low-pH soils?
In certain climates, banded P is a more economical choice than lime for low-pH soils in wheat.
Phosphorus Fertility for Winter Wheat
Planting wheat? Dorivar Diaz shares how phosphorus helps to increase yields.
Direct and Residual Fertilization in Soybeans
Fertilizing based on crop rotation may bring higher yields.
Nutrient Removal and Chemical Resistance: How Weeds Are Damaging Your Field
Managing resistant weeds is a challenge in and of itself. Knowing that weeds rob crops of key nutrients makes it even more important to control them.
Expanding the Nutrient Management Toolbox: Using Tissue Sampling
Tissue sampling alone doesn't provide all the answers. Get the most out of your data.
IPNI Guest Blog: Keeping Nitrate out of California Groundwater
Nitrogen fertilizer management practices are under intense discussion in California.
The Gap Between Macros and Micros Is Smaller than You Think
Do you know the difference between macronutrients and micronutrients? There are fewer differences than you may realize.
Scouting Soybeans for Deficiencies and More
Soybean problems may look alike, and require good scouting to diagnose properly.
Managing Leachable Nutrients
Wheat crops in wet areas may be suffering from nutrient deficiencies due to leaching. Find out why and how to best supplement those nutrients
Reducing the Continuous-Corn Yield Penalty
Continuous-corn systems require intense management, as the yield penalty can be as much as 25 bu/ac.
Nutrient Management Is a Journey, Not a Destination
Soil temperatures continue to rise; unfortunately, the commodity markets are not showing similar trend lines.
Soil Fertility Important in Managing Soybean Cyst Nematode
Did you know solid soil fertility can limit damage done by soybean cyst nematode?
Boron: A Micronutrient that Requires Micromanagement
Boron is a critical micronutrient for many crops, but its potential for leaching must be considered.
Risk Management Begins with the Soil
The key to risk management is controlling what you can.
Cover Crops: Type Makes a Difference
Do you know what type of cover crop will work best for your fields?
Weather's Impact on Nutrient Management
Balanced crop nutrition is essential for plants to withstand the stresses of changing weather patterns.
Plan Now for Effective Fertilizer Management
While fertilizer decisions may start with soil samples, other insights and considerations can help build a strong crop nutrition plan to ensure higher yields.
All About Phosphorus
Phosphorus is one of the three macronutrients essential for plant growth. It is required for the photosynthesis process, converting the sun's energy into food for the plant.
Cover Crop Considerations
Cover crops can help farmers manage their soil and nutrients from year to year. But not all cover crops work for all purposes. Knowing what cover crops need, and what they give back to the soil, can help you in your decision.
Boron's Importance in Plant Development and Growth
One of the micronutrients that is essential for crop health also happens to be one of the most deficient in the majority of fields: boron.
It's Time for Some Crop Nutrition Decisions
There's certainly a value to working proactively to avoid stresses before they're apparent, especially when it comes to soil fertility.
Did the Cool, Wet Spring Cause a Head-Scratching Harvest?
Farmers all over the Corn Belt saw striped and pale corn this spring and into summer. How they addressed these signs of nutrient deficiency may have been reflected on their yield monitors this fall.
Thinking Small — With a Focus on Zinc
In farming, little things can add up to make a big difference. This is certainly the case when it comes to balanced crop nutrition.
Nutrient Balance Plays Big Role in Balancing Land Value
With land prices the past few years skyrocketing, balancing nutrients in the field is more important than ever.
Fall Potassium Applications: Consider Crop and (Soil) Characteristics
Required by all plant life, potasium (K) plays a major role in photosynthesis, breakdown of carbohydrates, protein synthesis and disease resistance. Most importantly, it can activate at least 80 enzymes that regulate the rates of major plant growth reactions.
The Soil Fertility Checklist
When it comes to crop nutrition and your soil fertility plan, you need to make sure you've dotted your i's and crossed your t's.
Soybean Sudden Death Syndrome
With a name like sudden death syndrome (SDS), this soybean disease certainly demands our agronomic attention. But, while it's serious, understanding SDS might actually make it less intimidating.
Evaluating a Soybean Fertility Program
Historically, many soybean fertility programs are based on the philosophy of "make do with what's left." But progressive growers are finding it's important not to forget this crop's primary job is to pull nutrients out of the soil, and that those nutrients need to be replenished.
Plan Now for Your 2014 Fertility Program
Even before the 2013 crop is in the bin, growers should begin putting thought into how they will proactively manage their 2014 fertility programs.
Good Options, Better Options: A Look into Soil Sampling
Soil sampling has adapted and evolved over time. As genetics, crop nutrition, equipment and precision ag technologies have matured, so has the need for more advanced soil sampling in the field.
The Sulfer Solution
Farmers and retailers who have been in the business for a while probably find themselves wondering why so much attention has been paid to the past several years. After all, sulfur used to pretty much take care of itself, supplied to plants by organic matter and deposited by rainfall.
Tips for Managing On-Farm Trials
While there certainly is no shortage of information available on how different crop inputs and solutions perform on research test plots around the world, there is no substitute for seeing firsthand how a new seed, chemical, technology or input will perform on your own land, with your management style.
Boron: A Key Consideration in High Yield Systems
As yield levels increase, so does the demand for nutrients not often considered as standard practice. This means that a high-yield system requires more attention be paid to micronutrients.
Is Population Growth Demanding More Aggressive Nutrient Replenishment?
Population dynamics, the impact of biofuels and land use and productivity are all a part of the equation in determining future fertilizer nutrient requirements.
What Your Next Physical Can Teach You About Corn Care
When an agronomist visits a field to diagnose a problem, it's not unlike a doctor attempting to uncover the source of a patient's discomfort.
How Plants Show Hunger
The relationship between soil chemistry and nutrient uptake can fluctuate just as much as the weather from year to year. With today's seed genetics, you may find some hybrids are great at optimizing a certain nutrient but wasteful with others.

For construction firms damaged by the storm
The Chamber of Commerce of West Alabama has released the following information:
Representatives from FEMA, SBA Disaster Loans and other agencies will be available at a Business Recovery Information Meeting on Friday, May 6 at 5:30pm at the Bryant Conference Center (Sellers Auditorium). Businesses in Tuscaloosa and surrounding areas affected by recent storms (physical damage or economic injury) should attend. The meeting is being presented by the Chamber of Commerce of West Alabama in cooperation with the attending agencies.
Facts to be presented:
Disaster loans will not duplicate what insurance companies cover but can help with a remaining amount of loss.
Businesses and private non-profit organizations of any size may borrow up to $2 million to repair or replace disaster damaged or destroyed real estate, machinery and equipment, inventory, and other business assets. The SBA may increase a loan up to 20% of the total amount of disaster damage to real estate and/or leasehold improvements, as verified by SBA, to make improvements that lessen the risk of property damage by future disasters of the same kind.
For small businesses and most private non-profit organizations of all sizes, the SBA offers Economic Injury Disaster Loans to help meet working capital needs caused by the disaster. Economic Injury Disaster Loan assistance is available regardless of whether the business suffered any physical property damage.
Also, many are unaware that disaster loans up to $200,000 are available to homeowners to repair or replace disaster damaged or destroyed real estate. Homeowners and renters are eligible up to $40,000 to repair or replace disaster damaged or destroyed personal property.
Interest rates are generally lower than others in the market. Amounts and terms are set by the SBA and are based on each applicant's financial condition.
Applications may be submitted online, but representatives at the meeting are experts in getting all forms submitted correctly, expediting the turnaround.
For more info on the meeting, call 205-758-7588. Learn more about Disaster Assistance Loans by attending the meeting, calling SBA at 800.659.2955 or visiting www.sba.gov.
