Proponents consider it a return to the intent of the 2020 voter initiative, but dispensary owners and cannabis advocates think it could cripple the industry. A hearing this week on a bill to prohibit marijuana advertising revealed a wide gulf between understandings of the state’s current ad policy for the industry. On Wednesday morning, the House Business and Labor Committee met to consider House Bill 351, which would effectively ban most marijuana advertising in Montana. In i...

The 2022 sugar beet harvest wrapped up last week with both tonnage and sugar content coming in lower than expected. According to Sidney Sugars agricultural manager Duane Peters, the yield was unusually field specific with highs and lows in individual fields rather than in an overall area. ”It seems to have a lot to do with weather, but there’s not really any rhyme or reason on the sugar,” he said. Peters expressed his deepest appreciation for the area growers. “They faced tough issues and made hard decisions and came through with another...
It all started this summer. Savage sugar beet producer Del Nollmeyer was experiencing chest discomfort while irrigating.

On Aug. 19, he underwent a single bypass open heart surgery. With beet harvest just around the corner Del and Kim were stuck. Del was in no shape to spend hours in the tractor topping and digging beets. “Our neighbor, Kjeld Jonsson had been in cont...
