Blog 3 Kory “Red” Kiernan Fall Farm Intern

September 21, 2020 by virginia.moerbe

Blog 3.

 

This past week I’ve been working on fixing fences to move cattle in the coming week or so. Dove hunting season is in full swing and we have several public hunters using the farm to hunt. I’ve placed several buckets around the hunting sites to gather up shotgun shells to prevent littering an its worked very well. We have clearance for the high schoolers to begin coming out to the farm in the next week so that’s exciting. We also got the old dodge running again so we have a spare farm truck to work with now. Last week I also got some experience disking some of the fields to plant cover crops for the winter at a later period. Cotton is still in the ground here and will continue to be until we can get a solid chunk of dry weather. Things are going well otherwise and I’m ready to begin work with the students.

Partnership Opportunities

Stiles Farm can run multiple projects at once thanks to the demonstration and research plot model. If you or your company would like to partner with Stiles Farm, we are looking for partnerships in long term conservation tillage and cover crop research, precision agriculture technologies, innovations in beef cattle production, the economics of small acreage horticulture production in the blacklands, and use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (drones) in agriculture production. For partnership ideas, contact Ryan Collett at (512) 898-2214 or rmcollett@ag.tamu.edu.
