They also got more exercise as more of the population was engaged in physical labor (women's land army) and factory work to produce food and war goods.
The middle strike news was all about the trucks/trains cutting off supplies. The same systems seem to have wrecked Russian MLRS and artillery this summer.
There is no place safe for them to hide. The larger drones also carry more bang to do more damge. Makes it harder to rebuild a new artillery piece from scraps of a few damaged ones.
This is how tarrifs work.
I imported some product from the EU to the U.S. for my business. U.S. customs slapped a 10% tarrif on the shipment.
Supplier said "your countries stupidity, your problem." Couldn't really argue with the supplier.
I paid the 10% tarrif to get the shipment in.
I then then added the increased charges on the invoice to the customer. Who is also in the U.S.
Smaller portion = less sugar, fat, salt, calories etc... If I remember correctly a few states have addressed making unrealistic portion sizes for the label as making misleading claims.
It all started with a top notch intranet and has gone downhill from there.
Yes there is an easy fix that will make the problem go away. At this point you know it's deliberate.
I personally think it's hilarious.
Since I have never used the distro but have seen threads like these popping up every time the cert expires, I don't think it takes much trust.
Also it's pretty fucking hilarious.
You could proactively take care of it with a reminder on the calendar. Or alternatively, just let the community inform you when you need to renew it. Both are effective methods.
Solo garlic is planted in the late spring/early summer and harvested late summer.
Regular garlic is planted in the fall and allowed to over-winter then harvested around mid-summer.
The clove forming process is triggered by reaching enough time at cool enough temperature. 50-60 days below 10C or 30-40days under 4C for most cultivars. There is some variation based upon genetics.
Nitrogen deficiency
My favorite was when a car runs a yellow light at the same time I ease my foot off the brake to get the engine started in preparation for going forward. The autostart and brake assist had a little tiff of errors and stalled the vehicle.. I had to turn the engine off and restart it to reset it.
That was great.
So lane assist is off, adaptive cruise control is off, driver attention is off (with some electrical tape over the fucking stupid thing) and brake assist is off. The only things on is the blind spot monitoring because that sort of works and the backup camera.
Last time I was had a rental car, I was driving down a rural curvy road with no traffic. So I cut the corners whenever visibility allowed it. The computer freaked the fuck out and finally turned off after tossing a "Maintenance needed error". I laughed my ass off over that one.
My wife's fluffy white dog I drive around with for work. He likes to eat higher moisture corn and cow shit.
For silage corn the entire plant is harvested, chopped up, and packed tightly in a pile and covered with plastic or very large plastic bag. This creates an anaerobic conditions and yeasts/bacteria convert the sugars to alcohol, then acids. This acid preserves the feed for cattle for up to 2 years.
Silage corn is the most common base feed for all dairies and feedlots.
This isn't even the tallest variety out there. There are others that are 3' (1m) taller.
The machine with the spout is a chopper. They are a million dollar gigantic woodchipper. These things are fucking terrifying and you should absolutely stay out the field when they are running. Every so often a deer jumps into them.....shudder.... nightmare fuel.
Early in the season before a corn plant is waist high it takes a guess on how many kernals it can fill. Sometimes it guesses wrong and so it aborts the top kernals to fill the rest.
The entire top of the damn plant turns bright red.
As sugars build up in the top of the plant with no place to be transported to, the upper leaves start to turn bright red and die back.
You may get a bar bell ear or there may be no ear on the plant. In of field of millions of plants a bright red top narrows the search down.
Start getting your pinky in shape with this weird environmental triggered trait. It's easy to find in any corn field (to be continued...).
This right here is 350bu/acre of corn. 113 day variety on an almost pure sand field. Every damn ear looked the same. Look at that beauty, every kernal is huge and dense.
This here is trichoderma ear rot in an organic field. This 100 day variety was chewed on by an earworm. The damaged kernals allowed trichderma to enter and infect the ear. This ear rot produces many toxins and is a big no for consumption.
The twist - Trichoderma is usually a beneficial organism in the soil. It feeds on other pathogenic fungus/bacteria and is applied extensively for biological control.
Although normally a secondary pathogen, it has mutated to become a primary pathogen in both Italy and Germany in recent years.
This here is a genetically susceptible 113 day variety to fusarium kernal rot. This is a nasty little fungus that produces all sorts of mycotoxins that can give any mammal that consumes it a belly ache or even death. It's easily identifiable by the white streaks in causes in the kernals.
This 98 day little minx has a flirty pink cob. It doesn't look like much but it packs quite the wallop. The ears posted yielded 302bu. Medium high ear placement and a fast drydown makes this an excellent choice for grain.
This is pretty little 102 day number with a bright white cob that threshes very easily. It does extremely well for dry grain, high moisture grain or earlage.
The field in this picture averaged 305bu.
Probably the easiest plant to care for once you figure it out.
I water it every month or two. Fertilize it every 2 or 3 years. Redirect the arial roots into the pot when I water.
It gets 3 hours of direct sunlight in the morning.
Every 5 or 6 years I haul it outside in the summer. Then leach the pot with the garden hose to remove the salt buildup. I also hack the plant back to a more manageable size.
Nitrogen fertilizer is massively over-applied globally. 1/3 less fertilizer will help with farmers paying attention to getting the best result for the lowest amount of N applied.
It will also increase interest in some better cropping practices like growing legumes as a covercrop.
So even though usage will be down, yields are unlikely to massively take a dive from less N.
The largest issue is drought/flooding and extreme temperatures. Climate change makes a farming system built upon more predictable weather insufficient.
