The EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers want to revise the definion of Waters of the United States (WOTUS). I guess that will happen now with every change of Administraton. NOAA says we may have a short revisit of La Nina this winter. Crop production continues to look good but not as good as recently. The weather may be catching up with it.

See our latest video in our weekly education program on sustainable agriculture. It is another long one this week but not as long as last week and it is not my favorite but it provides another perspective.

Violence and abuse against shopworkers surged last year and gathered pace further as the enforcement of coronavirus measures such as face masks and social distancing fuelled more incidents, according to new research.
The latest annual report into retail crime by the British Retail Consortium (BRC) revealed there were 455 incidents of violence and abuse every day in the year to March 2020.
It reflects a 7% jump in incidents from the previous year but sector leaders have said the situation has only worsened following the pandemic.
