This is not new for me.

We're going to talk sourcing chemicals, I believe, and products like that.

Right off of X. Anyway, listeners, we always like when you interact with us.

The best place to do it is on any social, wherever you're listening right now.

There's usually a place you can go leave a comment or you can call or text us, 515-207-9640.

Tanner is going to eventually play those for us.

If you have questions for us, that's a great place to leave a question, either text or voicemail.

I think it'd be fun to do one of those shows where you ask questions and we answer them.

You know, the old way I remember growing up was a lot of people hired the co-op to come spray.

That's great.

They do a good job at that.

But then you're tied to their pricing and what they have for chemicals in the shed.

And I remember that was one of the first things I remember on the farm of dad doing was we had our own sprayer.

And then he wasn't buying his chemical from the co-op.

And I remember we were a pretty small farm.

I don't know, we were under 1,500 acres at the time, early 2000s.

I remember him saying how much he saved.

It was over $20,000 in just buying the same chemicals from somewhere else rather than the local co-op.

And I'm not knocking on the co-op, right?

They do provide a service for that extra cost.
