For four generations, we have been raising corn, soybeans, oats, wheat, hay and Angus cattle. We strive to implement sustainable farming methods throughout our operation. We take pride in providing our customers with beef that is free of antibiotics, steroids, artificial hormones, dyes and preservatives. Our cattle spend their days roaming through ample pastures and grazing on grass.
We have been no-till farming since 1998, which reduces wind eroison, water erosion and topsoil run-off in our fields. In addition, we also plant cover crops to supress weeds, help control pests and diseases, grow orgainic matter, and put nutrients back into the soil. We rotate the planting of corn, soybeans, oats, wheat and hay in our fields to improve the physical, chemical, and biological composition of the soil. Crop rotation is an effective tool to manage financial risks as well as insects, weeds, and diseases. We make it our goal to be both economically and ecologically sustainable.
Howard Miller (1900-1969) and his brother started farming together in 1923 in Filson, Illinois. Howard always said that he and his brother had the Presidents to be grateful to: Herbert Hoover gave them the opportunity to buy some land, and Franklin Roosevelt gave them the opportunity to pay for it. Howard and his brother got their first herd of Angus cattle in 1939. In 1946, they split up their farming partnership, and Howard moved to Oakland, Illinois with his wife, Lois, and children Marilyn, Max, and Fred. Howard continued farming throughout his life.
The Illinois Young Farmer Guarantee Program (YFG) is a loan guarantee program designed to enhance credit availability for younger farmers who are purchasing capital assets. Loan funds may be used for new purchases of capital assets such as land, buildings, machinery, equipment, breeding livestock, soil and water conservation projects, etc. In some cases, up to 50 percent of the loan proceeds may be used to refinance existing debt as needed to improve lien positions. YFG Loans are made through conventional lenders; IFA will provide up to 85 percent guarantee of principal and interest on the loan made to a qualified borrower.

In an overlooked part of the deal, Shuanghui also acquired more than 146,000 acres of farmland across the United States, worth more than $500 million, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data.
In addition to analyzing decades worth of USDA data, the Midwest Center also reviewed federal and state laws meant to monitor or restrict foreign influence in American farmland. The Midwest Center found:
Since 2011, Chinese businesses have made dozens of transactions for U.S. farmland, an analysis of USDA data shows. The amount of American farmland under Chinese ownership may increase in coming months, as China National Chemical Corporation awaits regulatory approval on its acquisition of seeds and pesticides firm Syngenta. Syngenta is Swiss-owned, but it oversees substantial swaths of farmland across the United States from Hawaii to Florida. Overall, Chinese companies own or are invested in more than 240,000 acres of U.S. farmland, USDA data shows.
In that report, the states that viewed foreign investment as a possible threat told the accountability office that foreign investment could drive up the price of farmland beyond the reach of local residents and allow foreign interests to control domestic food prices.
In addition, foreign entities only have to file paperwork again when farmland changes hands. There is no routine follow-up required to evaluate whether anything, such as land use, has changed, Johnson said.
Texas and Maine, which have no laws limiting foreign ownership, each have nearly 3 million acres of crop, timber and pastureland owned by foreign entities, far more than any other state. Other states with more than 1 million acres of foreign-owned farmland include Alabama, Washington, Florida, California, Colorado, Louisiana and Georgia.
Bloomberg News reported on Friday that, China plans to accelerate purchases of American farm goods to comply with the phase one trade deal with the U.S. following talks in Hawaii this week.

In 1998 Wade and Kim Kuipers opened their 71 acre pumpkin patch to the public in the hopes that families would enjoy the simple pleasures of a fall day spent on a beautiful Midwest farm, as they found they enjoyed it with their three children.
While the little fall happening has changed quite a bit, Wade and Kim have tried to remain true to their original vision of offering a farm experience to their customers that is as close to what you might really find on a Midwest farm as you can get without having to get dirty. While there is a lot to look at on the farm, this is certainly no museum. Instead running, climbing, adventure, fresh air, unique photo ops and classic fall flavors are growing here by the bushel and now two generations of Kuipers are here to welcome you each fall!
In recent years, he has added to investments by quietly purchasing farmland through a company he owns called Baloo Enterprises LLC. A spokesperson for Khan confirmed earlier this month that Khan has purchased roughly 24,000 acres of farmland in central Illinois.
Purchases of farmland by wealthy individuals and hedge funds have surged in recent years, but it is not a new phenomenon, farm economic experts said. They said farmland has been a popular investment for a long time because of its stability.
Typically the land purchased by wealthy owners is rented out to farmers. A 2016 report by USDA showed that about 39% of farmland is rented. About 50% of farmland in Illinois is rented, according to the Illinois Society of Professional Farm Managers & Rural Appraisers. 041b061a72
