Keeping you informed on the news impacting our Midwest States: The EPA has proposed a rule for President Biden's approval, aiming to allow year-round E15 sales in eight states like Illinois, Iowa, and others, which have sought this change since April 2022. A decision is expected soon. Iowa and Nebraska are already in court seeking immediate approval for summer E15 sales, arguing that the EPA's proposed March 28 deadline doesn't allow enough preparation time. The main question now is when the law will take effect in the eight Midwestern states. Additionally, some lawmakers are advocating for nationwide legislation for year-round E15 sales.

Ministers have approved AHDB - Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board's levy increases in all four sectors it supports – pork, beef and lamb in England, dairy in GB, and cereals and oilseeds in the UK. The new rates will be implemented from April 2024, the levy organisation today (7 February) confirmed after securing the support of ministers and the industry. There has been no increase to the levy rate in the beef & lamb and cereals & oilseeds sectors for more than 10 years, and no change in over 20 years for dairy and pork. Because of this, the spending power of levy funds over the past decade has been reduced by up to 40%, according to AHDB. The organisation said this was due to inflation as well as changes to its tax status, meaning it can no longer reclaim VAT. AHDB chair Nicholas Saphir said the organisation was 'pleased' that ministers had approved the proposals. "[It] will ensure the levy continues to support the work AHDB has committed to prioritising for farmers and processors across all the sectors we serve. “The new rates will allow us to enhance our key activity whether, for example, that involves growing export opportunities or exploring further marketing campaigns. “Levy payers can be assured that our commitment to helping them navigate through an unprecedented period of change is secure and we will continue to listen to their feedback to ensure we are delivering real value for money.” The government has also agreed that Nicholas Saphir will serve a further 12 months as chair of the organisation. The extension to his appointment means he will remain in the role until 31 March 2025. #AgriRS #pork #beef #lamb #dairy #cereals #oilseeds Agricultural Recruitment Specialists FarmingUK

The Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce has joined Ministers of Agricultural from seven provinces in calling for a reversal of recent changes to the Capital Gains Tax. Farmers and agricultural organizations say the inclusion rate hike from 50% to 66.7% will significantly impact the transfer of farm property, will deter farm takeovers by the next generation, and will reduce food security. We urge the federal government to reverse these changes, which disincentivize investment, harm entrepreneurs and unfairly burden our producers. Read more below. 👇 https://lnkd.in/g-z_7pk9

Does the thought of managing your farm’s finances make you feel like you’re sinking in a sea of numbers? Don’t worry; you are not alone. Many farmers face significant challenges when it comes to balancing expenses, managing cash flow, and maximizing profits. In the world of catfish farming, managing finances effectively can make the difference between a thriving business and one that struggles. To address these challenges, here are some practical tips for effective financial management: 1. Create a Detailed Budget: Outline all your costs—feed, utilities, maintenance, and labor—and compare them with your expected income. Regularly update your budget to keep track of your financial health. 2. Track Every Transaction: Keep precise records of all income and expenses. Use accounting tools or spreadsheets to monitor your cash flow and make informed decisions. 3. Manage Costs Wisely: Find cost-effective solutions without sacrificing quality. Purchase feed in bulk, negotiate with suppliers, and consider local alternatives to reduce expenses. Implementing efficient farming practices can also help lower costs. 4. Prepare for Unexpected Costs: Set aside a contingency fund to cover emergencies like equipment repairs or disease outbreaks. This financial cushion will help you manage unforeseen expenses more effectively. By implementing these financial management strategies, catfish farmers can overcome financial challenges and achieve greater success. With careful planning and the right support, it’s possible to turn financial struggles into a foundation for long-term growth and stability. #grolink #fisheries #aquaculturemanagement
