Crisis of Plenty

Jim Tchaikovsky’s dad could produce 3 sacks of grain in one hour. Today Jim can sack 14 times as much. Better seed and mechanized equipment has led to a crisis of plenty.

Caught in the Middle

Jim Tchaikovsky goes to work under a sun that has no heat. He is out at dawn with the windchill at 30 below, to check on cows about to calve. Jim and his wife Karen are the 5th generation on this land. They may lose it all.

“Throughout his remarkable career Bob Dotson has searched for the real essence of America – not by interviewing the so-called famous but by seeking out those unnoticed people we pass by every day.  Dotson is a national treasure for caring enough to listen.”
