Iowa’s pheasant season is underway

Iowa’s pheasant season is underway and Mick Klemesrud with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources says now is a good time to come back to the hunt. Klemesrud says bird populations are as high as they’ve been in years, and that should provide a great time. “Pheasant hunting is a lot of fun, it’s exciting. You get the ‘rush of the flush,’ is what Pheasants Forever would push. And that’s true. It’s fun to see a rooster flush and see a dog work; you have that friendship and camaraderie and time outdoors,” Klemesrud says. If it has been awhile since you’ve chased the ringtails or you are new to the sport, he says the DNR website can help you. “And if you don’t have a place to go hunting, we do have options on our website, the Iowa Hunting Atlas, where you can go find all the public land that gives you an idea of what should be there for game. If you’re looking for something to do, come back out and give pheasant hunting a try,” he says. Klemesrud says the opportunities to find birds will get better later in November as the final crops come out of the fields. The pheasant season runs through January 10th.

After long lines for early voting, Pate says officials reviewing options

Seventy percent of Iowans who voted early this year did so in-person, either at a satellite voting location or in their county auditor’s office. Secretary of State Paul Pate says some voters waited in long lines to vote early and there may be options to ease that congestion in 2028. “Whether we have more satellite voting sites, whether the actual county administrative office or auditor’s office takes some different approaches to how they lay out their physical format to accommodate,” Pate said.

NAFB’s National Ag News

John Deere plans to close two Iowa manufacturing facilities and shift production elsewhere over the next several years. According to Progressive Farmer, the company will move windrower and round baler production from Ottumwa to Des Moines and transfer Hagie STS sprayer production from Clarion, Iowa, to Thibodaux, Louisiana. The Iowa Capital Dispatch reported that about 300 employees could be affected under normal production levels, although Deere said workforce impacts will depend on future business conditions and current production remains below typical levels due to the downturn in agriculture. Ottumwa officials estimate the closure could ultimately eliminate about 400 jobs and more than $30 million in payroll. AgWeb reported Deere expects to close the 115-year-old Ottumwa plant by fiscal year 2029, with the Clarion facility following a similar timeline. The company says it remains committed to its planned $20 billion investment in U.S. manufacturing over the next decade despite softer equipment sales and lower profits.
