Coldwater, Michigan | The map situation is just one of the things we just take as gospel, maybe don't think about. There are several things that came out of "University Gospel" 50-100 years ago and we as a farming community accept them as "Gospel" without questioning them because that's what they have always said since before I was born!
1) were they ever true? Or were they best we could do based on our (the University's) limited knowledge at the time?
2) Some of the things I deal with everyday that are working in your field, and others, but not all, were heresy in the Agronomy departments in the 60's and 70's. Sorry that today the Universities are still preaching some of it. They obviously haven't been in the field recently (last 20 years). That's not always the case, but unfortunately in too many of them.
