Rain slows planting progress

Ag/Outdoor, News

April 23rd, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Farmers got the rain they’d been hoping for last week, but it cut down on the time they could be planting. The U-S-D-A crop report shows there were only three days suitable for fieldwork due to the weather. Corn planting hit 13 percent complete by the end of the week — up from four percent last week. That is three days ahead of last year and the five-year average. Eight percent of the bean crop is now in the ground, which is four days ahead of last year and six days ahead of the five-year average.

Almost one-third of Iowa food bank’s stockpile is ‘rescued’ food

News

April 23rd, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – A new study by the Iowa Food Bank Association finds more than 27-million pounds of food was “rescued” last year by the six Feeding America food banks that serve Iowa. Annette Hacker, spokeswoman for the Des Moines-based Food Bank of Iowa, says an astounding amount of food is wasted and chucked into landfills daily, so they work with grocery and convenience stores, manufacturers, growers and restaurants to rescue that food and get it to people who need it. “It might be a pasta manufacturer who says, ‘These pasta noodles are just an eighth of an inch shorter than we normally make to put on the shelf and sell, so we’re going to donate this pasta,'” Hacker says. “It might be a dairy that says, ‘This particular batch of cottage cheese had slightly less salt in it than meets our standards,’ but it’s still perfectly good.”

A report from the U-S-D-A says up to 40-percent of the U-S food supply is wasted every year, so Hacker says food banks rely on retail rescue to meet the growing, record need for food assistance.  “We have recently had pallet after pallet of Triscuits marked organic, but guess what? They weren’t organic,” Hacker says. “So that was a great volunteer project, to go through every Triscuit box and mark out the word ‘organic,’ still perfectly good, fresh crackers inside that box, but they were not able to be sold because they were not labeled correctly.” Hacker says food banks strive to divert perfectly good food from landfills and get it onto dinner tables for Iowans who face food insecurity.

Food rescue visit at Catholic Charities in Des Moines, Iowa on February 7, 2024.

“Food Bank of Iowa distributes more than 22-and-a-half million pounds of food every year, so our portion, a little over seven-million pounds, about a third of what we’re distributing is food that has been rescued from retailers, manufacturers, grocery stores,” Hacker says. “It’s absolutely critical. Food rescue is the reason food banking began in the first place.” Many Iowans will throw out food just because it’s past the “best by” date on the label, which Hacker says is something that’s largely misunderstood.

“There really are no such things as expiration dates, except for baby formula and baby food,” she says. “Other than that, the dates that you see on food are often either a ‘sell by,’ a ‘best by’, or a ‘use by’ date and those dates speak to optimal quality, not food safety.” Hacker says food banks adhere to very strict guidelines for food handling, temperature and storage of rescued food.

Tri-Center Girls track update with Coach Lexi Cochran

Sports

April 23rd, 2024 by Seth Tiegs

The Tri-Center girls track team has had themselves a great start to their season. They have won two out of nine of their events with only six events left on the season.

Coach Lexi Cochran says the team has been a part of few meets this year but the weather has been bit of challenge for her team this season.

The Trojans have been trying a lot of different combinations and relays to help find the right fit for her team.

Coach Cochran commented on a few of her individuals that are doing well this season.

The Trojans have had success in the jumping events this season, despite not having her full roster for the majority of the year due team sharing athletes with other trojans sports programs but she hopes to have the team together when they get to the bigger meets.

The next Tri-Center girls track meet will be (today) Tuesday April 23rd in Audubon. That track meet will get started at 4:30 p.m.

AHSTW Golf Update with Coach Aaron Allspach

Sports

April 23rd, 2024 by Seth Tiegs

The AHSTW Vikings Boys golf team has now hit the midway point of the season. The Vikings have won a total of two golf meets, with only three golf events left.

The AHSTW Boys currently has 3-5 overall record and 3-5 conference record in the Western Iowa Conference.

Many of the Vikings events have been dual meets this season but coach Aaron Allspach has been pleased that his team has faced tough competition this year.

The Vikings top golfers competed well at a recent meet against IKM-Manning, according to coach Allspach.

Coach Allspach commented on a few of his team’s individual leaders and the example they have set.

The Western Iowa Conference has some really good competition this season and coach Allspach said his team has already played four out of the six teams in Western Iowa Conference in the midway part of the year.

 

The next golf meet for the Vikings will be Monday April 29th in a Triangular meet against Griswold and Essex for a non-conference meet at the Griswold Country Club. That meet will start at 4:00 p.m.
