MT that IS from the seed dealer. I am a farmer have farm tax exempt, farm truck tags etc etc buy disel for the tractor at alot less than ya see on the pump that sort o thing. Truck farmin we call it. Ain't the size of them big boys which is why I buy it by the pound not the bag. From the CooP (Which just delcared bankrupcy and is going to shut down) it was $12.50 a lb for corn seed. Don't matter what type neither. Heck purplehull seed comes to $1.38 a lb and charelston grey watermelon (rattlesnake melons fer those of us from the country) is $.83 a pound. Even black diamond seed (which ain't real popular around here) is $1.12 a lb. Why corn is that high you can get me to do nuthin but guess.

earschplitinloudenboomer I am lovin this. I grew up on the small farm I am on now. It was close to 40 acres back then. Ain't got but 8 acres of it left after family (great grandmother) pulled a boogey woogey and sold part of it out from underneath us. I am still lookin fer a nice size truck farm around here that I can afford to buy. 70 to 80 acres should be anough to raise the three Cs and get a few squirrel and catfish in there to boot.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
