Poll

A change to the minimum wage wouldn't affect producers' hay-handling equipment purchases, according to an online survey of Progressive Forage Grower website visitors.

The majority of Progressive Forage Grower readers who weighed in on a recent poll are Ford fans (40.9 percent). The runner up was Chevy with 24.2 percent of the vote.

When we asked our online visitors what they'd do with a 25-year-old tractor, not a single respondent said they'd just let it sit and rust. If it still ran, they'd keep right on using it, said 96 percent of those who responded.

Our online readers answered the poll question, “Which forage events do you prefer to attend?”

We asked Progressive Forage Grower readers what they thought the next major issue facing agriculture will be.

The 2014 Farm Bill has given farm owners the opportunity to re-allocate base acres. We asked our online readers if they will elect to make changes on their farm.
