National Ag Week is all about celebrating the farmers, ranchers and agricultural professionals who work hard to feed, fuel and clothe the world. The Nebraska Department of Agriculture says it's the perfect time to thank Nebraska farmers, ranchers and others for providing food, feed and fuel and other products we depend on every day. This week the Nebraska Department of Agriculture will be posting trivia questions on their Facebook page and we'll share them with you here. A chance to learn about agriculture and play along for a chance to win some great prizes from Nebraska Commodity Boards. Commodity groups, support Nebraska producers and our agricultural industry all year and especially during National Ag Week. NDA has a list of all the organizations that they are thankful for on their Facebook page and of course you find that right through our page at Harvest USA Report. Also, as mentioned earlier last week on the program, David Misener and several other custom harvesters will be in Washington DC during National Ag Week to discuss important issues and meet with representatives. Tune in tomorrow for more about National Ag Week. That's going to do it for today's Harvest USA Report. Thanks again for listening and may God bless. I'm Brian Hale.
Fargo, ND based Resurgent Health is bringing a new philosophy on healthcare Contact Resurgent Health: at their website, Facebook Page or by phone (701) 599-3950 An episode summary: Introduction and Direct Primary Care Explanation (0:00 - 6:38) The Ag Week podcast host, Al Winmill, introduces Aly Dahl and Kristine Martens from Resurgent Health, a direct primary care clinic in Fargo. They begin by explaining the concept of direct primary care, emphasizing that it's a membership-based model rather than insurance-driven. Patients pay a monthly fee for unlimited access to their providers, including in-person visits, phone calls, text messages, and virtual appointments. This model aims to foster stronger patient-provider relationships and provide more personalized care. They contrast this with the traditional insurance-based system, where providers often have limited time per patient due to reimbursement rates and are incentivized to see more patients to generate revenue. They highlight that their model allows for longer, more focused visits, and they are motivated to keep patients healthy rather than just treating them when they're sick. The transparency of their pricing, with no surprise bills, is also a key benefit. They state that the system is more convenient for patients, especially those with busy lifestyles, as much of the care can be delivered remotely. Direct Primary Care and Agriculture (6:38 - 10:26) The conversation shifts to the suitability of direct primary care for those in agriculture. Dahl and Martens explain that their model is particularly beneficial for farmers and ranchers due to its convenience and accessibility. They acknowledge that farmers often work long hours, especially during planting and harvest seasons, and may not have time for traditional doctor's appointments. Direct access to providers via phone, text, and virtual visits allows farmers to receive care without leaving their work. They also emphasize that their model is more proactive, focusing on preventative care rather than a reactionary approach. They discuss the economic benefits of direct primary care for agricultural businesses, noting that it can be a more affordable alternative to traditional health insurance, especially for small businesses struggling to offer comprehensive benefits. They are now offering their services as a benefit for small businesses. They believe that offering direct primary care can help attract and retain employees by providing them with access to quality healthcare. Health Challenges Faced by Farmers (10:26 - 13:09) The guests then discuss the unique health challenges faced by farmers and ranchers. They highlight musculoskeletal injuries as a common issue due to the physically demanding nature of their work. They explain that they focus on healing the body from the inside out and that Dr. Martens offers osteopathic manipulation techniques to help with pain management. They also address the high levels of stress experienced by farmers due to market fluctuations, weather conditions, and other factors. They acknowledge that many farmers self-medicate with alcohol or ignore their health issues altogether. They emphasize their commitment to being there for their patients during challenging times and helping them maintain their health. Addressing Stress and Osteopathic Manipulation (13:09 - 14:58) The discussion returns to the stress experienced by farmers, and the doctors reiterate that seeking medical care shouldn't add to that stress. They emphasize the flexibility of their scheduling, allowing for virtual visits or rescheduling without long waits. Dr. Martens elaborates on osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), a hands-on technique she offers. She explains that it's a gentle approach, combining elements of massage and chiropractic, aimed at aligning the body and promoting natural healing. OMT can be beneficial for various pain syndromes, migraines, and even GI issues. She notes that Resurgent Health is currently the only clinic in the area offering this service. Nutrition and Individualized Care (15:16 - 18:38) The conversation shifts to nutrition, with the doctors acknowledging that farmers often have healthier eating habits than city dwellers. They stress the importance of individualized dietary advice, recognizing the unique challenges faced by farmers who work long hours and have varying schedules. They explain that they don't believe in rigid dietary restrictions or "check-box" approaches, instead focusing on making small, sustainable changes based on each patient's lifestyle and needs. They give an example of working with a farmer who drinks a lot of Mountain Dew, suggesting a gradual reduction rather than complete elimination. They emphasize that generic nutritional advice is difficult because individual circumstances vary greatly. Practical Health Tips and Prioritizing Care (18:39 - 21:22) The doctors offer practical health tips for farmers and ranchers, particularly emphasizing the importance of preventative care and addressing the reluctance of men to seek medical attention. They cite a study predicting a significant increase in men's cancer rates by 2050 and urge men to prioritize their health. They highlight the convenience and personalized care offered by Resurgent Health, encouraging listeners to consider their model as a more comfortable and accessible alternative to traditional healthcare. They reiterate that the current healthcare system, not the providers, is often the source of frustration and that their model allows them to provide the kind of patient-centered care they believe in. Learning More and Scheduling Consultations (21:22 - 22:41) Winmill about how listeners can learn more about Resurgent Health. The doctors direct them to their website, resurgenthealth.net, and highlight their offer of free "meet and greets." They emphasize that these consultations are no-obligation and provide an opportunity to meet the doctors and learn more about their services. They also mention that they offer after-hours consultations on Monday evenings and Friday mornings, in addition to regular weekday appointments, to accommodate busy schedules. Concluding Remarks and Gratitude (22:43 - 22:58) The podcast concludes with Winmill expressing gratitude to Aly Dahl and Kristine Martens for sharing their insights and the story of Resurgent Health. Winmill commends the clinic for its innovative approach to healthcare and find their work inspiring. Winmill expresses hope for future conversations with the doctors. Dahl and Martens reciprocate the thanks, expressing their appreciation for the opportunity to share their message.
Agweek Podcast host, Al Winmill, recently had the chance to chat with Nate Schlief of the Greater Grand Forks Farm Toy Show about their upcoming 4th Annual show in Grand Forks, ND. Nate shared information about the show, located at the Alerus Center, March 28-29, along with his history in the farm toy hobby, how the show started and more. Learn more about the 4th Annual Greater Grand Forks Farm Toy Show at Nate's preferred communication platform, their public Facebook Group: Greater Grand Forks Farm Toy Show Here's a link to the Alerus Center's write up on the show: https://www.aleruscenter.com/events/detail/3rd-annual-grand-forks-farm-toy-show-1 Here's a summary of the episode: Show Origins and Initial Planning (0:00 - 2:14) Al Winmill welcomes Nate Schlief, organizer of the Greater Grand Forks Farm Toy Show, to the Ag Week podcast. Schlief discusses his lifelong passion for farm toys and the inspiration behind starting the show. He explains that the decline of farm toy shows in smaller North Dakota towns, combined with his son's participation in national shows, led to the idea. He partnered with a friend and his wife, choosing the Alerus Center due to its accessibility for vendors. Their initial plan was to have 50-60 vendor tables. Show Growth and Vendor Collaboration (2:15 - 4:47) Schlief details the show's growth, noting that they aimed for a March date to avoid overlap with other shows and to accommodate their shared vendor base. The first year saw 65 tables, and the show has since grown to around 100 tables, even turning vendors away due to space limitations. He highlights the community support and nostalgia for past local toy shows, emphasizing the show's role in connecting people with a shared hobby. He also mentions the possibility of a future show in Bismarck. Vendor Diversity and Display Highlights (4:48 - 6:20) The discussion shifts to the variety of vendors at the show. Schlief describes the range of merchandise, including farm toys, clothing, literature, and steel signs, and mentions unique vendors like one selling goat milk products. He notes the trading and selling among vendors and attendees, and highlights the display of collections, such as a Big Bud tractor display and handcrafted versatile tractors. Interactive Exhibits and Community Engagement (6:21 - 10:03) Schlief describes unique exhibits, including 3D printers and NDSU's Department of Ag Engineering. He emphasizes the addition of a kids' play area with a corn-filled pool and toys, and a designated space for remote-controlled semi tractors and bulldozers. He discusses the farm toy displays, noting they are not yet judged, and shares tips on creating displays using affordable materials. He highlights the show's Facebook page and the Toy Farmer magazine as resources for hobbyists. Information Sharing and Community Impact (10:03 - 11:18) Schlief explains how information about the hobby is shared, including through their Facebook page, the Toy Farmer magazine, and word-of-mouth. He highlights the show's positive impact on the Grand Forks community, attracting visitors who stay in hotels and eat at local restaurants. He notes the significant increase in vendor bookings, from the initial 65 tables to approximately 120 currently. Future Growth and Audience Diversification (11:20 - 18:00) Looking ahead, Schlief discusses the show's potential for further growth, referencing the large regional show in Sioux Falls. He emphasizes the importance of attracting younger generations to the hobby, highlighting the educational and imaginative aspects of playing with farm toys. He acknowledges the diverse interests of attendees, from casual enthusiasts to serious collectors. He reiterates the goal of creating an entry point for younger individuals to engage with the hobby and continue its legacy. Nostalgia and the Evolving Hobby (18:00 - 20:30) Schlief emphasizes the nostalgic aspect of the farm toy hobby, sharing his own childhood memories of receiving toy combines and the joy of being able to purchase those same toys as an adult. He highlights the hobby's evolution, noting the blend of traditional craftsmanship (like brass and soldering) with modern techniques (such as 3D printing). He expresses admiration for the genuine, down-to-earth people involved in the hobby, which he considers a major draw. Vendor Information and Contact (20:30 - 22:15) Winmill inquires about vendor registration. Schlief directs potential vendors to the "Grand Forks Farm Toy Show" Facebook page and provides the contact information for his partner, Mike Ratty (218-791-5818). He clarifies that there is no charge for displaying farm toy collections, only for vendors selling merchandise. Show Dates, Times, and Attendance Information (22:15 - 23:30) Schlief provides the show's dates and times: Friday, March 28th, from noon to 7 p.m., and Saturday, March 29th, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the Alerus Center in Grand Forks. He encourages attendees to check the show's Facebook page for updates and raffle information. Concluding Remarks and Well Wishes (23:30 - 23:58) Winmill thanks Schlief for sharing his passion and information about the show, wishing him a successful event and continued growth. Schlief expresses his appreciation for the opportunity to be on the podcast.

Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. EPISODE 165 DETAILS So many of you have reached out inquiring about the latest details about the Agridime Cattle Ponzi Scheme. It gets rather complicated, but BEC and I break it down for you. Some of the most feed efficient cows around are coming up for sale. Lucky 7 Angus Ranch is selling their spring calving Oklahoma cows at public auction, January 8th at Ogallala Livestock Auction in Ogallala, Nebraska. AGRIDIME According to articles in the Bismarck Tribune and Ag Week, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which filed a civil lawsuit against the company on Dec. 11, has labeled the operation a Ponzi scheme, in which Agridime was using investor money to pay existing investors and commissions to salespeople rather than using new money to do what it said it would — purchase, feed and care for cattle to be finished and sold to consumers as beef. The SEC has received a temporary restraining order, including an asset freeze, on the company owned by Joshua Link of Arizona and Jed Wood of Texas, through Jan. 9, pending a hearing on Jan. 5. As of Sept. 5, 2023, Agridime-held cattle contracts required payment to investors of $123 million in principal, plus $24 million in guaranteed "profits." The company, as of Sept. 30, 2023, had less than $1.5 million and insufficient operating revenues, the SEC complaint said. Carl Karpinski, enforcement attorney for the North Dakota Securities Department, said there is no confirmed tally yet on investment losses in North Dakota. But he said the eventual number may be significant. "North Dakota is one of the most — if not the most — affected states" in the nation, he said. While the SEC complaint did not go into specifics about the cattle the company did purchase, other than specifying that "Defendants did not buy the number of cattle required to fulfill the Company's obligations under the Cattle Contracts," Agridime was licensed as a livestock agent in North Dakota. Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring announced on Dec. 15 that it no longer will be licensed in the state. “Agridime was licensed in North Dakota,” Goehring said in a statement. “Their renewal was pending based on issues with bonding. The actions taken by the SEC will support our denial of their license and we will issue a cease-and-desist order, effective (Dec. 15), to prevent further purchase of livestock.” Karpinski said the Securities Department is not working on the cattle sales side of the case, though the North Dakota Department of Agriculture and U.S. Department of Agriculture are involved. Ellingson encouraged producers involved in the case to contact the Stockmen's Association at 701-223-2522. HOW AGRIDIME OPERATED The SEC complaint said Agridime raised $191 million from more than 2,100 investors in at least 15 states since January 2021. Instead of using investor money as advertised, the SEC filing said Agridime has used at least $58 million from Dec. 1, 2022, to Sept. 30, 2023, in investor funds from new cattle contracts to make principal and profit payments to previous investors. Agridime would sell investors cattle contracts for $2,000 per calf. The company would then promise to buy the cattle back a year later at return rates of 15% to 32%, the complaint says. Agridime paid commissions to salespeople, typically 10%, for each cattle contract sold, which also was not disclosed to investors. The SEC documents say that through May 2023, commissions paid exceeded $11.1 million in total, including "at least $5.6 million to a salesperson in North Dakota," $1.3 million to Link and his wife and $1.3 million to Wood. By using the funds to make previous investor payments and to pay commissions, "Agridime has not purchased enough cattle to fulfill its Cattle Contracts. Agridime's investors, therefore, do not actually invest in specific, identifiable animals. Instead, the success of their investments depends on the success of Agridime's purported cattle operation, including its ability to attract new investors." Agridime had operations in Texas, Arizona, Kansas, North Dakota and "other states," court documents said. In North Dakota, Securities Commissioner Karen Tyler on May 24, 2023, ordered a cease and desist order against Agridime and Link. Neither Agridime nor Link were registered as an issue-dealer or a broker-dealer in North Dakota, the cease and desist order said. Despite that, Link on Sept. 7, 2022, sold an investment contract to a North Dakota resident for $250,000, the order said. The SEC complaint said Agridime sold $9 million in 18 cattle contracts to North Dakota residents since the issuance of the cease and desist order in May. Agridime also sold $1 million in cattle contracts to Arizona residents since a similar order was issued there on April 18, 2023, and an Agridime salesman there admitted under oath on Oct. 18 that he still was selling contracts in Arizona. The state of Arizona in November filed a contempt motion against Agridime and Link. Tyler issued another cease and desist order in North Dakota on Dec. 15 against Taylor Bang of Killdeer, which alleged that Bang, despite not being registered as an agent with the Securities Department, had received $6,055,390 in "transaction based commissions by selling unregistered cattle investment contracts on behalf of Agridime in or from North Dakota" from Jan. 1, 2021, through Oct. 30, 2023. Under North Dakota law, the North Dakota Securities Commissioner can assess civil penalties of $10,000 per violation of the Securities Act. Bang said he's always approached his business honestly and was simply taking direction from Agridime. “I was just doing a job.” Bang disputes the claim that he made more than $6 million in commissions from Agridime. He said that figure is “way high” and that he wasn't sure how the Securities Department arrived at that number. The Securities Department says it calculated the figure from subpoenaed financial records. Bang said he was aware of the May cease-and-desist order the North Dakota Securities Department filed against Agridime and Link, but that as far as he could tell, the company took the legal demands outlined in the orders seriously and was working to address them. The rancher said he's worked with Agridime for roughly seven or eight years. He said he still thinks very highly of the company and is proud to support the American livestock industry. “To date, I have not had one person that has done this, as far as the cattle-purchasing contracts, not get paid on time,” Bang said. In the Dec. 15 order, Tyler ordered Bang to turn over all commissions received from Agridime, to be deposited into the North Dakota Investor Restitution Fund and to be liable along with Agridime to Agridime investors. LUCKY 7 ANGUS In 1895 James Jensen started a five-generation ranch, from which came Lucky 7 Angus. That first winter he lived in a dug out on the side of a hill and shoveled snow off the grass to feed his 3 horses and 7 cows in what is called the Nation's Icebox, Boulder, Wyoming. We know very well the blood, sweat and tears it takes to keep the family ranch afloat. And that is why we take it very seriously that our customers are the most profitable in the livestock industry. Lucky 7 Angus was started in order to raise bulls that could hold up better for commercial cattlemen, such as ourselves. We have accomplished the goal... For the past 30 years we have been unmatched in raising cows and bulls in tougher conditions than the rest of the industry, which has made the most durable bulls for our customers. We were the first seedstock operation to set minimum standards for PAP testing. The number of animals tested with these standards, are unmatched in the industry, which helps our customers with less sickness and death loss. We were the first seedstock operation to test for feed efficiency in real world conditions. Then in 2002 we started feed efficiency testing by purchasing large vertical mixers in order to know how much every cow, calf and bull on the place ate. In 2009 we were the first Angus only seedstock producer in the U.S. to purchase a GrowSafe feed intake monitoring system. Lucky 7 Angus is unmatched in the industry by having both real world and scientific feed efficiency testing data, which allows our customers to make more pounds of beef per acre. The measures we have taken in producing our genetics gave us enough confidence in our bulls to offer the nation's first 4 year guarantee. This guarantee is unmatched in the industry and allows our producers a 33% advantage when buying bulls. What makes Lucky 7 different is our goal, to have the most profitable customers in the livestock industry. We are proud that the hard work great grandpa James put into the start of this ranch has not been in vain.

Flag Day. National Bourbon Day. World Blood Donor Day. Monkey Around Day? These are some of the potential ways to mark June 14, the 165th day of 2022. What you choose today is up to you, but I do hope you’ll take a look or a listen at this installment of Charlottesville Community Engagement, a program that also wants you to make sure you know that some consider this is also National Pop Goes The Weasel Day. Now, where can I find some tupenny rice and some treacle?Know people interested in transit issues? Send them this particular edition of the newsletter so they can find out about the Regional Transit Vision plansOn today’s program:Details on the next steps for a second lawsuit to force a House of Delegates election this yearAlbemarle and Charlottesville’s elected bodies each take a look at the Regional Transit Vision plansGovernor Youngkin announces a series of grants to help increase capacity fo small agricultural producers, such as a water-powered mill in Nelson CountyAnd Albemarle County releases a report on climate vulnerability and risksToday’s first shout-out: ACHS to provide update on Race and Sports projectIn today’s first subscriber supported public service announcement, the Albemarle Charlottesville Historical Society continues work gathering stories for their project Race and Sports: Athletics and Desegregation in Central Virginia. Tonight at 7 p.m. they will provide an update on Facebook Live and Zoom with two people who lived through the era. Garwin DeBerry graduated from Burley High School in 1965 and Steve Runkle graduated from Lane High School in 1960. They will be sharing how the families, neighborhoods, and communities in which they grew up shaped their experiences and of school desegregation. Tune in to the ACHS event on Race and Sports tonight at 7 p.m. (Zoom registration)Status hearing held for new lawsuit seeking House of Delegates election this NovemberThe state of Virginia has until June 24 to file a motion to dismiss a new lawsuit that seeks the Commonwealth to hold an election for the House of Delegates this year. Richmond resident Jeffrey Thomas Jr. filed a federal suit in the Eastern District of Virginia last week that picks up similar arguments made by Richmond attorney Paul Goldman for why some think the House districts currently in place are unconstitutional. Goldman’s suit was dismissed for lack of standing nearly a year after he filed. Thomas and representatives from the Virginia Attorney General’s office were in court yesterday for a status update in the case. Judge David Novak issued an order requiring both parties to file a joint stipulation of facts by June 17. Thomas will have eight days to respond to whatever the state of Virginia files. The state will have five days to respond. No date has been set for another hearing. For more information, read coverage in the Virginia Mercury. Albemarle County releases climate vulnerability assessmentOne item on tomorrow’s agenda for the Albemarle Board of Supervisors is a 176-page document that identifies how the county and its residents will be affected by shifting weather patterns. The Climate Vulnerability and Risk Assessment looks ahead to how extreme heat, drought, wildfires, and flooding may affect the area. There’s also the threat a changing climate will bring new pests that will affect crops. (read the document)The assessment is a step toward developing a climate resilience plan.“Some of the changes are unavoidable and even while we try to mitigate and reduce the severity of climate change, we also need to prepare for some of those impacts,” said Gabe Dayley, Albemarle’s climate protection coordinator. Dayley said the climate action plan is intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to meet regional goals to be carbon neutral and fossil free by 2050. He made his comments on the Let’s Talk podcast produced by Albemarle’s communications and public engagement department. “Our vulnerability and risk assessment looks at the kinds of specific local weather changes that we can expect,” Dayley said. “Things like increasingly intense and long heat waves or sudden and more severe rainstorms that lead to flash flooding.” Visit the county’s website to hear more. The report was put together with support and work from the Piedmont Environmental Council. In disclosure, that group is a sponsor of the Week Ahead newsletter. Water-powered grain mill in Nelson gets support from AFID grantThis is Ag Week in Virginia, and Governor Glenn Youngkin has announced the latest recipients of the state Agriculture and Forestry Industry Development grant program. The program provides matching grants to small agricultural producers such as Potter’s Craft Cider which used a $50,000 grant as part of a package to move operations into Neve Hall off of U.S. 29 in 2019. This time around the grants focus on infrastructure. Nelson County requested financial assistance for Deep Roots Milling to upgrade a water-powered grain mill built in the late 18th century. According to the press release, the $22,500 in state funds will help pay for a new sifting room and new bagging equipment. Other recipients include $25,000 for Piedmont Processing of Gordonsville in Orange County to add more cooling space for its slaughterhouse, $25,000 for barge to serve a collective of oyster farms in Northampton County, and $9,000 for a commercial kitchen expansion in Bedford County.

The museum space is a renovated, vintage camper parked behind WTJU’s studios at 2244 Ivy Road in Charlottesville. WTJU’s Radio Relics exhibition shows off some of the artifacts collected over the years, many contributed by former WTJU General Manager Chuck Taylor. In fact, there’s even a new initiative to raise money through the Chuck Taylor Fund for WTJU History. Contact General Manager Nathan Moore to learn more. Or donate today!Albemarle and Charlottesville officials weigh in on Regional Transit Vision Consultants hired by the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission are moving into the second phase of a community engagement effort for a $350,000 plan to create a regional transit vision to make public transportation a more attractive option. They have developed both a constrained plan that would anticipate around $26 million funds that might be generated through becoming a regional transportation authority with taxation power, as well as one that assumed funding would be found to increase the frequency of service. That has an estimated $70 million price tag. The Albemarle County Board of Supervisors had their review on June 1. “These concepts are here to help you imagine and understand what kind of outcomes are available at two different levels of investment,” said Scudder Wagg of Jarret Walker + Associates. This work will be completed before a second study will begin on how transit operations should be governed in the future.“So this transit vision study really is identifying the potential improvements to the regional transit system and establishing that long term goal and plan vision and the governance study is really what are the steps to get to that vision that we’ve defined,” said Tim Brulle of AECOM. He’s the project manager for the vision plan. The idea in both visions is to increase how often buses move through the community. “Frequency means freedom effectively,” Wagg said. “The more frequent service is, the much shorter the wait is, the much likelier you are to get somewhere soon.”Wagg said at the moment, around 60 percent of residents of urban Albemarle and Charlottesville are close to some transit service, but only about 15 percent are close to frequent service. Both visions expand the number of areas covered by on-demand service where people can call for service on the same day. Currently, a ride on Jaunt has to be booked a day in advance. But in general, the plan without identified funding would increase service. The unconstrained vision would seek to increase fixed-route service to seven days a week from morning into the evening. “One of the key things that is likely to significantly improve access to opportunity, particularly for people who work in retail, service, and hospital jobs where many people have to work evenings and many people have to work Sundays,” Wagg said. “Those types of jobs where if you aren’t there for them on Sunday, they have to have a car and therefore have to incur the high costs of owning a car.” Supervisor Ann Mallek is the sole elected official left from an effort in the late 2000’s to create a regional transit authority. She wanted to make clear the community tried once before for a sales tax to fund increased transit, but a referendum did not make it out of the General Assembly. “Money doesn’t just appear when we don’t have the authority to raise it,” Mallek said. Supervisor Ned Gallaway said service along urban corridors in his district needs to be frequent to accommodate the new units that have been approved during his tenure, such as the Rio Point project that got the okay last December. He pointed out proponents argued transit could help mitigate traffic congestion.“Over a thousand units, 1,300, 1,400 units that are going to build out there, and if they’re sitting on a sixty-minute transit line, that’s not going to work,” Gallaway said. Gallaway said the on-demand transit pilot that Albemarle will begin next year will go a long way to helping determine what the county needs.Supervisors Bea LaPisto-Kirtley and Diantha McKeel had already seen the presentation because the Jefferson Area Regional Transit Partnership got a briefing in late May. McKeel wanted clarification on the role the University of Virginia Transit System would play in the vision. “We tend to think about UVA as doing their own thing,” McKeel said. “That’s what they’ve done for years with their students and faculty and staff. Having said that, I know they are working really hard with us at the regional transit partnership about coming together on transit in this community.” Wagg said that the unconstrained vision anticipates more involvement by UVA. “There is an obvious and enormous transit demand within and around a university and the Grounds at UVA needs really a high frequency service within a pretty limited space so it is understandable they run their own service,” Wagg said. Wagg said an idea in the unconstrained vision is to trade resources with UVA. For instance, a Bus Rapid Transit system similar to the Pulse in Richmond could travel down U.S. 29 and terminate somewhere on Emmet Street. “And then the University could run a more community service that serves the Grounds as a primary focus but also serves the community at large,” Wagg said. Charlottesville City Council had their review on June 6. The presentation was much the same as what Albemarle and the Regional Transit Partnership saw, but Wagg repeated why having to wait on a bus that comes once an hour is an obstacle.“Relying on service every 60 minutes is extremely hard,” Wagg said. “You can think about relying on a 60 minute route is a little bit like if there was a gate at the end of your driveway that only opened once an hour. You had best be in your car with your coffee ready to go at 7 a.m. if you need to get out at 7 a.m. to get to work. And if you miss it, then you are not leaving until 8 a.m.” Wagg reminded Council that many of the current CAT routes do not operate on Sunday. City Councilor Brian Pinkston said the unconstrained vision is compelling and certainly appeared to be more attractive. But he expressed some skepticism. “This would be a great system to enact but how do we change behavior such that people would use it?” PInkston said. Wagg said if people have choices about how to get around, they’ll take transit. “A major reason people don’t take transit today is because it’s very unlikely to be useful to the trip they want to make,” Wagg said. For instance, Wagg said a trip from Pantops to the Piedmont Virginia Community College would take a very long time with multiple transfers. “Changing that dynamic of ‘will someone choose to ride’ is making it far more likely that the trip that they look up will be reasonably competitive to take transit,” Wagg said. Vice Mayor Juandiego Wade said he was concerned that outreach efforts have not been robust.“I’m just afraid that you may get input from the same people and we kind of know what it is,” Wade said. “We’ve got to do a better job of getting input. I can tell you if this is all you’re going to do, I can assure you of what we’re going to get.” Extra service will mean extra drivers, and Councilor Michael Payne said their needs must be taken into consideration up front. “We can drop any plans or changes we want but if we don’t have sufficient drivers to run those routes, it won’t work,” Payne said. “I know we’re already seeing significant problems in being able to maintain frequency of our current routes because of a shortage of bus drivers.” Payne is another member of the Regional Transit Partnership. He said the unconstrained vision should be a goal, but a realistic approach needs to be taken. “How do we, once this is finalized, bring it back down to earth and figure out what are the level of investments we need to specifically plan for here in the city and what are the specific steps needed to start to get Jaunt, [Charlottesville Area Transit], and the University Transit Service working together to move to that Regional Transit Authority?” Payne said. And that’s where the governance study would come in. If there was to be a regional authority, that could also include surrounding counties. The Greene County Board of Supervisors gets their review of the plan tonight, and its the Fluvanna Board’s turn on Wednesday. The next step is a virtual meeting on June 23 in which the consultants will present both the constrained and unconstrained visions. There’s also a community survey that seeks to gather input on the unconstrained and constrained visions. What do you think? No use telling me.

Ag Week publisher Katie Pinke talks about North Dakota's corporate farming ban. A bill before the Legislature would widen the ban to let second cousins farm or ranch together, but should it really take an act of the Legislature for you to farm with your second cousin? Also, there is an effort to water down North Dakota's food freedom laws, and it seems to be coming from the grocery industry.
This week we celebrate Agriculture with our 45th National Ag Day. While it's a day to recognize all that Ag does, we sometimes take the “thank a farmer” movement a little too far. Wouldn't it also be appropriate to thank the paying customer who buys our product? In this episode I share thoughts for the men and women of Agriculture, followed by an Ag Day message for our consumers. Please share this podcast with your non Ag friends. Because this week is all about celebrating North American Ag's bounty. Do so and enjoy!
