    The Little Red Barn Podcast Ep. 146: Houin Beef!
    2026/07/06
    This week the guys dive into the June 30 USDA reports on Planted Acreage and Quarterly Grain Stocks. The report was not really all that noteworthy, except that Charlie had to eat come crow during the podcast. How did the heat impact local crops this past week, and what about moisture from here? But perhaps the biggest outcome of this week's podcast is Ryan's new purpose in life: getting cattle integrated into the Houin farmstead! Make sure you get on to the Little Red Barn Podcast Facebook page to vote on which cattle breed should be the backbone of the newly minted "Houin Beef" operation!

    This week we catch up with Becks Agronomist Travis Burnett to discuss the how and why of getting the right type of hybrid on the right kind of ground. Charlie says its an AI job, which means Ryan wants none of it. But, is there something to the science? Do we need to look at some different kinds of metrics on the seed in our seed catalogs? An interesting discussion, even if it does walk close to the AI line...

    2026/06/23
    The Red Barn Road Show is back again this week...but this time because Ryan is trying to catch a little R&R up in the Michigan UP. This week we talk the over-hyping of weather and how that is getting old, the mother of all farm bankruptcies, and the upcoming USDA June 30th reports. That discussion brings a bit of surprise, as Charlie's thoughts would be wildly bullish for the market. Buckle up!

    This week Ryan and Charlie get a down in the weeds look at vintage power fanaticism! Rob and Kelley Meyers of the International Harvester Collectors Club Chapter 33 dropped by Red Barn Studios to talk tractors, tanks, trucks and implements...every one of them carrying the IH logo. It's a fantastic romp through the history of this brand and may give you a few trivia nuggets to tuck away. The reasons folks hang on to or collect various items are wide ranging...but they are all personal. Everyone has a story! Settle in with a nice beverage and let's walk back in time, just a bit!

But, there are increasing voices in parts of the state saying "we could use a rain" for various reasons, including activating chemistry. Are fertilizer prices heading down? We take a walk down memory lane on tractors, and also dig in to why its becoming more difficult to navigate repairs and breakdowns.
