Cotton Rohrscheib

I've been an entrepreneur my entire life and have been blessed to have been associated with hundreds of startups and projects throughout my career. A few years ago I started offloading many of my business interests to spend more time w/ my family and retool my focus toward the agricultural industry, ultimately I landed at Farmers Business Network, Inc. w/ a great team of people w/ shared mission / vision and the rest is history! I still operate my personal website & blog occasionally on topics of interest to me including; parenting, agriculture, technology, and whatever else comes my direction! My blog, cotton.buzz, is the product of over 20yrs worth of content, photos, podcasts, videos, etc., and all of the content I produce is mine personally, and only represent my views and/or opinions on topics and do not represent any of the businesses or associations I'm affiliated with.

Check Your Cucumber Plants for Anthracnose

I was just out looking at my cucumber plants this morning at my home in central Arkansas after being gone for a few days and found signs of anthracnose on the leaves. This is a pretty nasty disease that is kinda common w/ cucumbers (especially in the mid-south). This disease can really cut yields if […]

Being Broken but Keeping On…

February 4, 2025 by Cotton Rohrscheib Leave a Comment

Ernest Hemingway once wrote: The hardest lesson I have had to learn as an adult is the relentless need to keep going, no matter how broken I feel inside. This truth is raw, unfiltered, and painfully universal. Life doesn’t stop when we are exhausted, when our hearts are shattered, or when our spirits feel threadbare. It keeps moving—unyielding, indifferent—demanding that we keep pace. There is no pause button for grief, no intermission for healing, no moment where the world gently steps aside and allows us to mend. Life expects us to carry our burdens in silence, to push forward despite the weight of all we carry inside.

BlueDB Project Plan: Innovating Neurodiverse Support Services

January 26, 2025 by Cotton Rohrscheib Leave a Comment

I started storyboarding this project last year and pitched it to a few friends who crossover both the technical world as well as having family or friends connected to the neurodiverse community. I do not want to go into too much detail so as to not give away my idea, but a broad overview would be a web service that provides valuable, curated, detailed information about a child (or adult) on demand for many applications (police, ambulance, medical, emergency, etc.
