Well, that's a long subject... I have a contract with the local septage hauler. In order for him to use my field, he must go thru all types of red tape. Field and application method (Knifeing it in) must be approved by both state and local health departments. Very picky about where he must apply, not near edges of field, property lines, level field, etc. Soil tests, etc. Approval may take several months to move paper from one desk to the next. Real PIA. Wanted them to rotate through several fields, one year at a time. Then return the field to production the following season - several years in hay production before the field gets anointed again. They want to alternate between between two fields, in a two year rotation. (Can you see a problem here?) Guy from the state's business card says he is a "soil specialist." He doesn't even know about crop rotation. I know far more about soil science than he does.
Meanwhile, the right to farm law says I can spread animal waste pretty much at will. Supposed to incorporate it in 24 hours, except if applied on hay/pastures, where you don't have to incorporate it. Practically all my land is in permant sod. Guess how I apply animal waste? And no, I don't have to go through any state, local inspections, approval.

It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
