A New Robot Moves Like Nothing We Have Ever Seen Before.

When we think of robots on the move, most of us imagine either a machine rolling on wheels like a small car or walking stiffly on mechanical legs like a futuristic dog. But what if a robot could do both—glide quickly across smooth floors and climb stubborn stairs with ease?

China Remains Absent From U.S. Soybean Market
By Farmdoc Updated on August 27, 2025

“The impasse between China and the U.S. — long its second-biggest supplier — comes as the two governments negotiate an end to the trade hostilities that have roiled commerce between the countries since Donald Trump returned to the presidency,” Gu and Couto. “American farmers have said the stalemate leaves them headed toward a financial precipice, but U.S. government data suggests that Chinese buyers are standing pat.”

What Role Do Farm Products Have in U.S.-China Trade Deal?
“China imposed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. soybeans in March, making cargoes less competitive. The U.S. harvest typically starts in September, which marks the shift from one export season to the next. Chinese mills that crush the oilseed into animal feed will usually book ahead to take advantage of the cheaper prices and ensure their needs are met for the first few weeks or months of the crop year,” Gu and Couto reported.

“The hold-up this time seems to be the trade talks that have been extended to Nov. 10, with Beijing in no mood to give up a bargaining chip,” Gu and Couto reported. “Although Chinese commodities purchases are just one aspect of the discussions, during the first Trump administration, soybeans in particular loomed large as a way to help close what the U.S. characterized as an unfair trade deficit with China.”

“The market is highly seasonal, with American supplies dominating until the Southern Hemisphere harvest is gathered and shipments from China’s top supplier, Brazil, become available. That could in theory mean a shortage until the next wave of Brazilian beans is ready from February,” Gu and Couto reported. “The hope, of course, is that normal service will resume after Washington and Beijing strike a deal favorable to both their farming constituencies. But if that’s too tall an order, the consensus among traders and analysts is that Brazil should have enough old-crop stockpiles to cover the gap, while China could always tap its own huge reserves to meet its needs.”

Fendt’s First Stack-Fold Planter Launches with Precision Planting Tech Built In

Fendt has debuted the Fendt Optimum — the company’s first stack-fold planter — built with features from Momentum planters.

“Fendt planters are designed to give three things to farmers: create the best environment for seed placement, deliver the absolute perfect seed placement, and offer farmers the best efficiency and also flexibility. Optimum is delivering just that,” said Arthur Santos, marketing manager for Fendt planters.

The Fendt Optimum is built for corn, soybeans, sorghum, and cotton planting, and can be equipped with row unit seed hoppers or a 55-bushel center fill station. The planter is available in a variety of models to suit a farmer’s operational needs.

FTPS12-30: 30-inch row spacing, and a transport width of 18.7 feet
FTPS12-36: 36-inch row spacing, and a transport width of 22.5 feet
FTPS12-38: 38-inch row spacing, and a transport width of 22.5 feet
FTPS12-40: 40-inch row spacing, and a transport width of 22.5 feet
FTPS16-30: 30-inch row spacing, and a transport width of 22.5 feet
The Optimum’s toolbar has four articulation points and standard wing downforce, allowing the planter to flex to move row units to be better aligned with the ground, optimal for precision technology. An optional vertical contouring hitch follows along with the ground, floating and copying the topography of the terrain as the planter is pulled through the field.

U.S. Screwworm Patient Recovered, Maryland Says, as Ranchers Criticize Secrecy
By Reuters Published on August 26, 2025
By Tom Polansek and Leah Douglas

CHICAGO/WASHINGTON, Aug. 25 (Reuters) - The patient with the first human infestation of travel-associated New World screwworm in the United States has recovered from the flesh-eating parasite, and there was no sign of transmission to other people or animals, the Maryland Department of Health said on Monday.

U.S. cattle futures tumbled on concerns the pest will also strike livestock as ranchers criticized a lack of transparency about the case, following exclusive reporting by Reuters.

Screwworms are parasitic flies whose females lay eggs in wounds on any warm-blooded animal. An outbreak could cost the economy in Texas, the biggest U.S. cattle-producing state, about $1.8 billion, according to U.S. estimates.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed the human case as screwworm on Aug. 4 in a person who returned from travel to El Salvador, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The agency announced the case on Sunday after Reuters reported earlier in the day on emails from beef industry officials on a CDC-confirmed case in a person in Maryland who had traveled to the United States from Guatemala.

The nearly three-week delay between the confirmation of the case on Aug. 4 and the U.S. government’s disclosure erodes trust that public agencies need to identify and fight potential screwworm outbreaks, said Neal Wilkins, CEO of conservation and cattle group East Foundation.

“It will cause many producers and land owners, wildlife managers, to simply begin to believe that they’re not being fed the whole story,” he said. “It’s irresponsible and tone deaf for them to have done this.”
