NRCS works with S.D. ranchers to increase sage grouse populations

Story by Lura Roti, for Land & Livestock Courtesy Photos

For generations sage grouse have depended on South Dakota’s ranchers for their habitat. Like cattle grazing the rangeland, this ground-

dwelling bird depends on healthy range conditions to survive. More specifically, they depend on the existence of Wyoming big sage brush, says Mitch Faulkner, rangeland management specialist with South Dakota Natural Resources Conservation Ser-vice, or NRCS, in Belle Fourche.

“Almost all sage grouse nest under sage brush plants and they are totally reliant on sage brush for food as well as cover and protection from predators,” Faulkner says.

Historically, sage grouse populations thrived on the prairie lands of the West. Today, sage grouse only found in certain areas of western South Dakota and a few other western states. Over the past 50 years populations have declined due to habitat loss and fragmentation associated with land conversion, energy development, urbanization, conifer encroachment and invasive species.

To reverse this trend, Faulkner and the South Dakota NRCS team, along with other organizations and agencies, partners with ranchers and landowners to improve sage grouse habitat in the three western South Dakota counties where the Wyoming big sage brush thrive and sage grouse populations exist today, explains Jeff Zimprich, state conservationist with South Dakota NRCS.

“In South Dakota approximately 90 percent of land is privately owned. If we want to do something that will have a positive impact on wildlife species in our state – in this case increase sage grouse populations - we need to partner with South Dakota landowners,” Zimprich says.

In 2010 S.D. NRCS rolled out a sage grouse initia-tive which invested heavily in critical areas like the Butte, Harding and Fall River Counties. Since that time, NRCS invested $3.2 million in habitat develop-ment through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) and Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program (WHIP). These programs provide funding and cost share dollars to ranchers and landowners who implement management practices which improve the

rangeland and ultimately grouse habitat.

“This is a win-win situation for those of us who raise

cattle because management practices which improve grouse habitat also improve our rangeland,” says Jeff Smeenk, a fourth-generation cattle producer who also serves as the president of the South Dakota Cattle-men’s Association.

When Smeenk returned to his family’s ranch in the late 1990s, the rangeland needed some TLC. It wasn’t in bad shape, but Smeenk says it had been pushed hard. He worked with a NRCS rangeland conser-vationist to put together a range management plan which would rejuvenate the native grassland, maximize forage production and extend his grazing season.

Working with EQIP and WHIP programs, as well as other programs offered by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, or FWS, and South Dakota Game, Fish & Parks, Smeenk installed miles of pipeline and fence

which then allowed him to implement a rotational grazing system that closely mimicked the historic grazing pattern of buffalo. Each year his cattle rotate

through pastures at different times of the growing season than the year previ-ous. And each year, one pasture is left to rest. The programs offered by NRCS and other organizations provide Smeenk with cost share dollars and pay him to defer grazing.

Smeenk credits this grazing manage-ment system with extending his grazing season this year.

“It really saved my grazing situation this summer,” he says. “I was able to graze my rest pasture much longer than average because last year’s grass was still standing and the new grass came in bet-ter in this pasture than the others.”

Although there are no sage grouse currently residing on Smeenk’s land, his rangeland does border ground that is home to a sage grouse lek. A lek is where sage grouse gather each year to breed. Because of the proximity of his land to the lek, Smeenk also qualified to receive EQIP dollars designated to improve grouse habitat.

Historic agreement protects working ag lands

In an effort to strengthen the relation-ship between NRCS and ranchers and to increase the number of ranchers who partner with NRCS and implement practices which improve grouse habitat, this September NRCS signed a historic agreement with FWS.

The agreement provides regulatory certainty or protection to ranchers like

Smeenk, who maintain sage grouse friendly practices on their rangeland for the next 30 years.

“We realized that to make this work, we couldn’t talk to producers about making habitat better for sage grouse if they thought it could actually have a negative impact on their operation in the future if the species became listed,” Zimprich says.

This is a big deal to South Dakota’s ranchers, says Faulkner.

“Regulatory certainty means that if the sage grouse was listed as an endangered species in 2015, any regulatory action would not apply to landowners who are managing their land and maintaining those practices which are beneficial to sage grouse,” Faulkner says.

“This is a great step in the right direc-tion,” Smeenk says. “I’ve met with Dave White, the chief of NRCS, and his goal is to keep ranchers on the ground. He realizes that if you want to save a spe-

cies, you need to have ranchers caring for the land because they are the best conservationists. By providing regula-tory certainty he is doing just that.”

Smeenk adds that he would like to see the regulatory certainty agreement to also include public lands leased by ranchers in the critical counties.

“In my situation I lease 1,700 acres of BLM land. If the sage grouse gets listed in 2015 and I don’t have regulatory cer-tainty on that land and new regulations force me to give up my lease it would negatively impact my ability to manage deeded ground that is interspersed with federal ground,” Smeenk says. “There are many ranchers in my situation because the counties where sage grouse habitat is contain the majority of South Dakota’s federal and state-owned land.”

On a good day, when the wind speed, weather conditions and air temperature are just right, Lauren Greenhoff can spray

as much as 1,500 acres of pasture or cropland. Like the farmers he works for, the aerial applicator admits he’s at the mercy of Mother Nature to get the job done.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s Saturday at 8 p.m. or Tues-day morning, during the growing season, if there are acres that need sprayed and the weather conditions are right, I’m working,” explains the owner of Lead-ing Edge Aerial Spraying, Dell Rapids, S.D.

Growing up on a farm near Flandreau, Greenhoff credits his childhood for his work ethic and passion for working in the ag industry. Flying was something he’d wanted to do for as long as he can remember. As a teen he got his private pilot’s license. He worked three jobs to pay for the plane rental and flying les-sons.

However, it wasn’t until his early 30s that he made

a career of his two passions – flying and agriculture – and became an aerial applicator.

“When I was just out of high school, aerial sprayers were mostly hired to spray pastures. There wasn’t much demand,” he says.

He spent the first half of his career working as a ground rig operator for a local cooperative and later selling commercial trucks. In 1991 he bought his first plane, a 1957 Piper Pacer he would fly in his spare time.

Over the years, Greenhoff saw demand for aerial spraying begin to grow.

“With today’s advanced genetics in corn and soybeans and the good com-modity prices, farmers are willing to do whatever they can to maximize their yields,” Greenhoff says. “There are many new chemicals and fungi-cides that help increase yields when applied later in the growing season when a ground rig can’t make it through a field without damaging the crops, so many farmers are choosing to have crops aerial applied.”

In 2005, Greenhoff decided to turn his hobby for flying into a career. After several hours of training, receiving the necessary certifications and work-ing for another South Dakota aerial sprayer, Greenhoff purchased a spray plane and began spraying for area farmers and contracting his services to local agriculture cooperatives.

For those who think aerial spraying would be an easy transition for an experienced pilot such as Greenhoff, he says flying an aerial sprayer is much different from traditional flying.

“When you fly from point A to point B, you’re only close to the ground twice, at takeoff and landing. And, you’re able to fly at a comfortable elevation where the air is cool and smooth. In fact, many pilots can run their plane on auto pilot,” he explains. “With aerial spraying everything is different. You’re always close to the ground. I fly only 10 feet above the crop, and there’s no auto pilot. I’m constantly watching for obstacles like trees and power lines and watching to ensure that the chemical I apply does not drift.”

Along with late-season applications, Greenhoff is also called upon when weather conditions aren’t ideal for ground application or to help cover acres when there’s a backlog at the lo-cal cooperative.

“A few years back it wouldn’t quit rain-ing and we needed to spray Roundup on soybeans. When we’d go into the fields we would get stuck, so we called Lauren,” says Chad Buschkofsky, an agronomist with the Dell Rapids Co-op. “We also call him for the bug run in the late summer or for fall corn rootworm beetles.”

Buschkofsky adds that when he scouts fields Greenhoff has sprayed, he is

impressed with the precision that can be achieved from the air.

“I’ve walked a lot of fields that Lauren has sprayed and he’s done a good job,” says Buschkofsky.

Precision at 130 miles an hour isn’t an easy task, but Greenhoff says when dealing with chemicals, aerial sprayers don’t have any other option. He says that his ground application experience comes in handy, as does GPS technol-ogy.

“I use two GPS systems. One for navi-gation and the other to ensure I don’t overlap chemical,” he says.

To ensure he never overlooks safety, he has three checklists he reviews before each takeoff, as well as a photo of his family.

“I force myself to go through the checklists every time. Today’s aerial sprayers aren’t the crop dusters of old.

We spend hundreds and thousands of dollars on equipment, safety seminars and continued education. We take a lot of pride in our equipment and ap-plication methods.”

This growing season Greenhoff added the service of aerial seeding to his busi-ness. With the increased interest in the benefits of adding cover crops to the crop rotation, some corn and soybean growers are asking Greenhoff to aerial seed cover crops into their fields before harvest in hopes that they’ll catch a rain shower and the cover crops will establish before the first killing frost.

Greenhoff says aerial seeding is just one more way he can use his love of flying to support the industry of agriculture.

“I enjoy the role I have in feeding the world,” Greenhoff says.

When it comes to transitioning the farm or ranch to the next generation, there is a lot to consider. That’s why Montrose

farmer and cow/calf producer Bill Smith and his wife, Connie, didn’t want to put off planning for the inevitable.

“My dad had a plan in place, so when he died in 2003, my brother and I were able to divide the farm and remain friends. We want it to be that way for our sons someday,” says Bill, who began farming with his dad and brother, Paul, in the late 1970s.

Although Bill and Connie’s three sons all have off-farm careers, once the couple began communicating their desire to have a transition plan in place, they learned that the boys were dedicated to keeping the farm in their family.

“We always knew the boys had interest in the land, but until we sat down and talked with them, we didn’t

know exactly to what extent they were interested,” Connie says. “It was refreshing to see that they all had an interest in the farm.”

Communicating with their children about their transi-tion plan was one of many steps the couple followed as part of the SDSU Extension course they took two years ago which focused on how to transition the farm. Although the couple had a will in place prior to taking the course, they said they learned about many more options and creative ways to pass on the land and assets the two of them have worked together to build over their 35 years of marriage. And even though they both still work full time – Bill farms and Connie is a freelance journalist – they say it makes them feel better knowing that decisions about the future of their family farm are actively being made.

“You hear a lot of horror stories of families who are torn apart over how things are settled after mom or dad dies. We don’t want that for our sons when it comes time to pass things on,” Connie says. “We still don’t know exactly how things will play out, because we’re still visiting with our sons. But at least now we are planning for the future of our farm together with our sons.”

Communication is the first step in planning for a farm transition says Heather Gessner, SDSU Extension live-stock business management field specialist. Gessner is one of the organizers of the Extension estate planning and farm transition conferences scheduled to be held in several communities throughout the winter.

“If your goal is to bring someone back to the farm, then you need to put strategic steps into place to make that happen,” Gessner says.

Read on as Gessner and two other specialists share advice on this and more through a Q&A with Land & Livestock.

Q: When do I need to start talking about a transi-tion plan?Gessner answers: Begin today. The longer you wait, the older you get and the more chance that options, like Long Term Care insurance, may no longer be available to you.

I always say the longer you wait, the more difficult conversations become. Having a plan sooner than later is very important to the continuation of the family business.

Q: What do I do first?Gessner answers: Sit down with your spouse and talk about what you want. Make sure you both understand what you want and how you envision your retirement years.

One story a couple shared with me was the fact that the husband always thought when they retired they would move to town. His wife didn’t know this, until after she’d just completed her dream kitchen in the farmhouse.

You need to be on the same page.

Once you’re on the same page and know what you want, then seek professional advice to help you achieve it. No farm in South Dakota is the same and there are many options and alternatives to help you accomplish your goals and potentially save you thousands in taxes. Pay-ing a professional $5,000 to $10,000 to do things right and in a way that will avoid unnecessary expenses, may save your estate $20,000, $250,000 or more.

Shane Penfield is one such expert. Penfield grew up on

a cattle ranch 18 miles southeast of Lemmon. Today, he is an attorney and owns his own law practice in Lemmon; Shane C. Penfield Attorney at Law, Prof LLC.

Q: What should we have organized before visiting with a professional?Penfield Answers: Every situation is different; however, I encourage my clients to begin by collecting an inven-tory of their assets. You need to know what you have to divide, before you begin discussing how you’ll divide it.

It’s a good idea to visit with your spouse and have an idea who you’d like to give the assets to before you speak with an attorney. I can give you options on how to do this, but at the end of the day, you are the one who needs to make the decision.

confidential and each attorney takes an oath to keep their clients’ matters confidential when they are sworn in as attorneys. We all take this very seriously. Whatever a client tells me is absolutely confidential and cannot be shared with anyone.

Q: What role does long-term care play in my estate planning? I’m perfectly healthy and neither of my parents ended up in the nursing home before they passed away.

Rick Rathert, a long term care specialist with North-western Mutual Financial Network, Rapid City, S.D., answers: An average long-term care policy costs about $2,000 a year and this premium can be tax deductible, whereas the average cost of long-term care in South Dakota is $78,000, and it goes up from there.

Without long-term care insurance, farmers or ranchers could face a serious cash flow issue if they could no lon-ger care for themselves. Although $78,000 is an amount most successful farmers or ranchers could afford, it would take a real dent out of their estate.

Stroke is the No.2 reason most South Dakotans end up needing long-term care and Alzheimer’s or dementia are the No. 1 reason. The average Alzheimer’s patent is in long-term care for about 13 years.

Q: At what age should I purchase a long-term care policy? Rathert Answers: The average purchaser of long-term care insurance is 52. I don’t have a specific age that I recommend, however I do recommend that a farmer or rancher consider long-term care insurance when they are doing the rest of their estate planning.

The longer you wait, the more likely a disease or life event will make you uninsurable.

Q: When it comes to long-term care, are all policies the same? And, why do I need one, won’t the govern-ment take care of me?Rathert Answers: No, all policies are not the same. If you purchased a policy a while back, I encourage you to take it to a professional and review it. Today, many long- term care policies cover in-home health care and assisted living care, whereas many older policies only cover nursing home care.

To answer the second half of the question, Medicaid has asset and income limits that require one to be impover-ished before qualifying for nursing home benefits. Im-poverishment is something to be avoided. And Medicare only pays for 20 days in the nursing home if one meets the qualifications.

So although long-term care is something we all hope we’ll never need, statistics say that 85 percent of all people who live to be 65 or older will need long-term care before they die.

A possible new oilseed crop for South Dakota and a proposed pulse plant in Harrold spell out a bright future for oilseeds and pulse crops in the state.

That’s the view of Rick Vallery of Pierre, for years the face of South Dakota Wheat Inc. Vallery left South Dakota Wheat Inc. earlier in September to devote more time to representing the South Dakota Oilseeds Council and South Dakota Pulse Council.

Vallery had already been representing the oilseeds industry since 2005 and the pulse industry since 2007. Good things are happen-ing in both of those segments of agriculture, Vallery said.

There’s a lot of optimism among growers of pulse crops such as lentils, chickpeas and green and yellow field peas thanks largely to a proposed processing plant that is currently seeking investor support

Sky’s the limit for oilseedsThink: Jet fuel

A sunflower head heavy with seed in this field north of Pierre bodes well for harvest, and Rick Vallery said growing interest in oilseed research similarly bodes well for the industry. Vallery represents the South Da-kota Oilseeds Council as well as the South Dakota Pulse Council.

from across South Dakota. The plant, which is proposed for a site at Harrold, would set demand in motion for pulse crops.

“There’s lots of opportunity in that indus-try for additional growth and expanded acres,” Vallery said.

Pulse producers pay a check-off equivalent to 1 percent of net value when the sell their crop to promote the industry.

Meanwhile, South Dakota oilseed growers are getting their first look at an experimental oilseed crop called carinata, Vallery said. It’s one of a number of crops that scientists are considering as a possible feedstock for making jet fuel.

“We’re working with some people in South Dakota State University to develop an oilseeds crop for jet fuel. It might be something we are growing now in South Dakota, it might be something totally new to South Dakota,” Vallery said, add-ing that it might be possible to use the corn oil left in the dried distillers grains with solubles produced as a co-product

from processing corn into ethanol, then mix that corn oil with a different oil such as sunflower, safflower or canola oil in the process of making jet fuel.

Vallery said the checkoff that farmers pay – 4 cents per hundredweight of oilseeds sold in South Dakota, whether flax, sun-flower, safflower or canola – will help pay for continuing research into such new uses for oilseeds. But he added that the South Dakota Oilseeds Initiative, approved by the South Dakota Legislature in 2012, set aside $450,000 for oilseed work. Much of the matching funding needed to access that money is already rolling in from sources such as the Sun Grant Initiative.

Vallery added that the crucial factor is that the crops have to grow well and yield well in South Dakota. Another potential oilseed crop called camelina needs further research to adapt it to South Dakota; and oilseed producers remain interested in other possibilities such as a winter canola that will deal with South Dakota’s summer heat better than spring-planted varieties.

Brookings, S.D. - There was a wide range in market expectations for corn and soybean production and wheat ending stocks prior to the release of The World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report Oct. 11. This report may have cast more light on uncertain supply and de-mand fundamentals, says Lisa Elliott, SDSU Extension Commodity Market-ing Specialist and Assistant Professor.

Read on as Elliott summarizes the Oct. 11 report as it pertains to South Dakota commodities.

corn

For South Dakota, 2012 corn harvest-ed acres were increased 50,000 acres from the September Crop Production report to 5.35 million acres. Yield, in

South Dakota, was decreased 2 bushels per acre to 94 bushels per acre. This was most likely due to a decreased number of ears per acre (21,550) and plants per acre (23,900) estimated in the South Dakota October objective yield data compared to the September data that had 22,150 ears per acre and 24,200 plants per acre.

soybeans

For South Dakota, 2012 soybean harvested acres were increased 200,000 acres from the September Crop Pro-duction report to 4.65 million acres. Yield, in South Dakota, remained the same at 28 bushels per acre. Yield remained the same despite fewer pods per acre estimated in the October objective data (2,763,640 pods) com-

pared to the September objective data (2,833,820 pods). The implication is that pod weights are higher this year than the historical average.

Most market analysts expected that the U.S. wheat balance sheet would be adjusted given an estimated unprec-edented amount of feed usage reported in the Sept. 28 Grain Stocks report.

Prior to the report, wheat ending stocks were expected to range from 550 million bushels to 714 million bushels with an average at 627 million bushels. As expected, annual feed/re-sidual was increased 95 million bushels to 315 million bushels, an increase of 43 percent from the Sept. WASDE. If realized, 315 million bushels would

be the largest feed and residual usage since 1998.

Given the slower pace of exports in the first quarter, exports were lowered 50 million bushels. This resulted in ending stocks at 654 million bush-els, which is about 30 million bush-els higher than the market average expected ending stocks estimate. Also important to note is that WASDE lowered Global wheat supplies by 6.2 million metric tons due to the dryness in Australia, Russia, and EU-27 and decreased global wheat consumption of 2.4 million metric tons and global exports of 4 million metric tons.

Movable High Tunnel Construction WorkshopBrookings, S.D. - SDSU Extension will host a two day movable high tunnel con-struction workshop on Nov. 6 and 7. The workshop agenda will include hands on step by step construction demonstration from start to finish.

Also included will be presentations on how to choose and build high tunnels for both fixed and movable structures, seasonal crop selection and nutrient and water management in a high tunnel. The workshop will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days at Hebda family produce located at 30661, 444th Avenue in Mission Hill near Yankton.

Since this is the same day as the election, please vote early if you plan to attend.

The cost for the workshop is $45 for two days and $35for one day per person. Registration includes lunch and re-freshments. For information about the workshop and how to register please contact Geoffrey Njue, SDSU Extension Specialty Crops Field Specialist at the Sioux Falls Regional Extension Center at 605-782-3290 or email [email protected].

High tunnels are unheated plastic covered relatively inexpensive structures in which crops are grown directly in the

soil. They help producers extend their production season improve yields and extend the marketing window for their crops. High tunnels also help growers produce quality produce earlier than field crops which gives them higher prices at the market.

Continuous production year after year in a fixed high tunnel presents a problem of salt build up in the soil which leads to reduced crop vigor and reduced yield. By utilizing movable high tunnels growers can avoid the problems associated with fixed high tunnels such salt build up because moving the tunnel exposes the soil to weather elements of rain and snow

that help leach the salts.

"With movable tunnels growers are able to take advantage of both a protected production and an open field produc-tion," Njue said.

Participants will learn about high tunnel design, construction, and management during the workshop. They will have an opportunity to participate in construc-tion of a movable high tunnel from start to finish. Some of the specific topics to be addressed during the program include how to select and build a high tunnel, fertility and irrigation management, and crop selection.

Got Grain? Don’t lose 40% of it to taxes.

When you sell your grain this fall, the tax man will be there to take his 40 percent share of your proceeds.

Here’s an alternative: Transfer a portion of the crop to the South Dakota State University Foundation.

Because SDSU is a charitable organization, there will be no taxes at all against those bushels. The sale proceeds for that share can be put to use at SDSU for student scholarships, ag research, Extension programs like 4-H, or another purpose of your choice, such as Jackrabbit athletics.

Speaking of taxes, you can continue to write off the input costs on the bushels you gifted to SDSU.

You can get the same no-tax benefits with a gift of livestock.

The SDSU Foundation handles the details and makes these transfers easy for the producer. We encourage you to call the Foundation for more information at 1-888-747-7378.
