BC requests wildfire assistance from Feds

Your

Northern Horizon

With weeks of fire season remaining, and forecasts for continued hot, dry conditions that carry the risk of further lightning strikes, the provincial government has requested assistance from the federal government for its firefighting efforts.

Team

Dan PRZYBYLSKI Sales Manager 250-782-4888 ext 114 (office) 250-784-4319 (cell) horizon@dcdn.ca

More than 3,400 dedicated wildfire personnel are responding to some 600 wildfires currently burning in all areas of the province. This includes BC Wildfire Service crews, contractors, municipal firefighters, industry personnel and out-ofprovince crews from throughout Canada, as well as Mexico, Australia and New Zealand.

“This is an urgent situation, and the safety of British Columbians is our highest priority,” said Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General. “Due to the increase in the number of wildfires affecting communities and the extreme wildfire behaviour we are seeing, we’re asking for federal assistance for additional resources that may be needed to protect the public, property and infrastructure.”

Janis KMET BC Sales 250-782-4888 ext 104 (office) 250-219-0369 (cell) jkmet@dcdn.ca

“We’re bringing in the additional resources we need to keep people and communities as safe as possible,” said Doug Donaldson, Minister of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development. “I thank the federal government and the Canadian Armed Forces for their assistance, and also ask British Columbians to do their part by following burning bans to prevent human-caused fires.”

As of the morning of Monday, Aug. 13, there were 27 evacuation orders affecting approximately 3,100 people (1,537 properties), in addition to 43 evacuation alerts impacting approxi-

Breakfast Brief GRAIN PRICES HAVE BUSY START TO AUGUST (posted August 3, 2018 to https://farmlead.com/blog/breakfast-brief/) Grain prices are mostly all in the green this morning as the market continues to price in weather and new trade risks. The White House is planning to impose a higher 25% import tariff on $200 Billion worth of Chinese imports, up from the 10% initially planned. China’s response was probably best summed up by Wang Yi, China’s top government diplomat, who said, “We hope that those directly involved in the United States’ trade policies can calm down, carefully listen to the voices of U.S. consumers…and hear the collective call of the international community.” We know the trade war is starting to show its effects on the balance sheet of farmers regarding the cash grain prices being the lowest they’ve been in a few years. Now, we’re starting to see the implications for those of the industry. Specifically, ADM’s operating profits more than tripled in the April-to-June quarter as they benefited from higher processing volumes in South America. Conversely, Bunge was bullish on soybeans last quarter – the wrong bet – and ended up losing about $125 million on the trade! The protectionist policies that are showing up in the trade war, though, are now starting to echo around the world as yesterday, Ukraine misspoke about the limitations of wheat exports. This brought back memories of 2010/11 when they did just that, and it helped push wheat prices higher. That’s exactly what happened yesterday, albeit wheat prices did close about 15-20 cents USD/bushel lower than the highs made on the day. However, wheat prices are again in the green this morning and supporting other grain prices higher. Next Steps for Grain Prices I’ve been on the road for the last two weeks, and there’s been a lot of action happening in grain prices over this timeframe. One thing is that we’ve been extremely cognizant of is activity in the non-durum wheat markets. We put out a special report for our GrainCents spring wheat readers last week, and then another notable piece yesterday for our winter wheat readers (for our Canadian readers, we include the likes of CPS, SWS, GP, and other low protein wheat in this category). Earlier this week, we put out a report on the state of grain markets for July and what was the performance of corn prices, soybean prices, canola prices, flax prices, winter wheat prices, spring wheat prices, durum prices, barley prices, oats prices, pea prices, lentil prices, and chickpea prices. We also walked through the number of factors we’re watching in GrainCents for these 12 crops that we cover. Next week, I’m on the road again, this time heading to the Aspen Institute as part of the Henry Crown Fellowship, which I was humbly named to in March.

57607

This in mind, I won’t be writing any FarmLead Breakfast Briefs next week, but, alongside the rest of the GrainCents editorial team, I will continue to monitor grain markets for our subscribers. If you haven’t yet joined the nearly 1,500 other readers of GrainCents, start your free 3-week trial here and see what how making grain prices and markets easier to understand. As we head into Harvest 2018, from the team here at FarmLead, we’d like to wish you a safe and productive harvest!

All prices are in Canadian dollars per metric tonne Market Comments - Feed wheat and barley prices headed in different directions in the eastern versus western Prairies over the past two weeks, decreasing by an average $15/T in Manitoba while increasing by that same amount in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Corn pricing meanwhile remained stable with the drop in futures markets offset by the strengthening Canadian dollar. Corn DDGS prices recovered some value from 2 weeks ago and are now trading at a slight premium to corn prices. Soybean meal values remained unchanged in Manitoba but increased by $20-30T further west. Canola meal increased by $10-15/T in Manitoba and Saskatchewan but remained unchanged to slightly lower in Alberta. Feed peas traded in the $245-250/T range in the western Prairies and $255-265 range in Manitoba. * Models have been updated to reflect the latest nutrient compositions of feed ingredients, which is done periodically.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Feed Pea / Faba Bean Benchmark - The feed pea/faba bean feed benchmarks are intended to be used as a pricing reference. This benchmark provides a consistent and unbiased estimate of the feeding value of peas and low tannin faba beans in the three regions shown. Feed peas and faba beans will trade at various differentials to the benchmark based on local supply/demand, quality differences and other contract terms. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Feed Pea / Faba Bean Feed Benchmark Calculation - The feed pea/faba bean feed benchmarks are an estimate of the feeding value of dry peas/low tannin faba beans in Western Canada, based on the value of competing feed ingredients in swine rations. Bi-weekly, tradable prices for the major feed ingredients are collected for the three regions shown above. These prices are then entered into a least cost feed formulation that is typical for grower-finisher swine in Western Canada. A feeding value is then derived for feed peas/ faba beans based on their nutritional characteristics and the prices of the competing feed ingredients. The least cost feed formulation was developed in consultation with the Prairie Swine Centre. In addition to the feed ingredients shown above, the feed formulation also includes canola oil, synthetic lysine, synthetic methionine, synthetic threonine, synthetic tryptophan, mono-dicalcium phosphate, limestone, salt, vitamins and minerals.

Coughing dogs – Can Fido really get the flu? By: Dr. Katrina Barth, DVM Summertime fun is made even more enjoyable with our doggy companions! Many of us will bring our furry friends on summer vacations, camping or indulge in many walks outside in the park. Sometimes it isn’t feasible to bring them with us and so our beloved fur-babies will be boarded or visit a doggy daycare. These types of summer places foster doggy friendships, and as such, commingling of dogs occurs. This lifestyle will put our pets at risk of contracting some infectious diseases, such as canine flu. Luckily, preventative measures can be taken to protect against the flu. Let’s discuss various respiratory diseases your dog may be susceptible to in the summer! Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease describes a disease that infects the upper and/ or lower airways by various respiratory viral and bacterial bugs. This respiratory disease is more of a complex and encompasses the many bugs that may cause lung issues. How sick your pet becomes depends on a number of factors including husbandry, exposure and dose of bacteria/virus obtained. Included in this disease complex is a term you may have heard before— “Kennel Cough”. Kennel cough, caused by the bacteria bordetella bronchiseptica, is one of the more commonly known pathogen that causes respiratory disease and is characterized by a dry-hacking cough. It is worth noting that multiple pathogens can occur

in combination with each other to cause sickness in the lungs, or cause secondary damage once the lungs defenses are weakened and other bugs or viruses can set up shop. Kennel cough is very contagious and can be contracted from boarding facilities with kennels or in shelters. However, other viruses such as, parainfluenza, canine respiratory coronavirus, adenovirus, distemper or canine influenza, or bugs like mycoplasma, may be at fault. So as to the title of this article: yes, your furry pal can indeed get the flu (canine influenza). Canine influenza is a contagious upper respiratory pathogen causing mild to severe illness by a few different strains of virus, just like in people. It is highly transmissible between dogs. There has been numerous recent outbreaks of canine flu across North America, with over 100 dogs in central Ontario infected in March. The strain of the flu infecting these Ontario dogs, H3N2, was first discovered in 2012, and suspected to be spread from importation of a rescue dog from Asia. Clinical signs of any respiratory disease include coughing, congestion, nasal or ocular discharge, lethargy, loss of appetite and fever. An animal who is more seriously infected may have clinical signs of pneumonia and difficulty breathing. Fortunately for our infected furry friends, canine infectious respiratory disease is mainly associated with a cough and green (mucopurulent) ocular, or nasal discharge. This green color actually comes from inflammatory infiltrates the body is bringing into the respiratory tree and may not necessary mean a bacterial organism is causing disease (it could still very well be viral and not necessitate antibiotic therapy). Lower airway disease (lower refers to respiratory disease in the lung fields and includes the respiratory tree after the trachea) that causes a fever may require medical intervention and further treatment. Favorably for disease caused by kennel cough, and for such viruses causing adenovirus and distemper, vaccination exists. Kennel cough vaccination needs to be given at least 72 hours prior to kenneling to maximize the immunity obtained from the vaccine, and is a needle-free (sprayed into the nose) easy way to immunize your furry friend. Although Kennel cough is not a core vaccination (like rabies vaccination), an owner should consider it for pets that visit dog parks, groomers, dog show competitions, agility trials or are an active socialite! Such breeds like pugs, or bulldogs, because of the short snout (pushed in face dogs or brachycephalic), may not be as tolerant of having a cough and also benefit from the vaccine. Animals with underlying respiratory or cardiac disease also cannot tolerating coughing so vaccination is worthwhile. However, the

illnesses caused by these bacteria/flus are on the surface, indistinguishable, and most dogs with mild infections will recover within a few weeks with basic supportive care. Once your pet has any of these clinical signs, a veterinary clinic visit is still warranted as a veterinarian can further assess and determine the best treatment options. Sometimes laboratory tests to culture the gross discharge is required to understand exactly what organism is infecting your pet and to guide which antibiotic needs to be given, if necessary. In shelter outbreak situations, culturing gives us the ‘ammunition’ to combat and stop the spread of disease! Overall, if a cough is noticed in your dog, be aware it might warrant more attention and feel free to consult with a veterinarian to determine the best course of action!

UNDERHILL SPECS 16-HEAD PACKAGE HEADS WEST TO DESERT ACRES IN FORT ST. JOHN (Submitted by Tracey Foster-Duriez)

15 registered Speckle Park females and 1 registered Speckle Park bull will make the trek from Ontario to BC later this August. This will mark the largest registered Speckle Park female package to sell from Eastern Canada to Western Canada to-date. Desert Acres in Fort St. John, BC will become their new home and set the stage for the development of a West Coast registered Speckle Park herd for owner/ manager Tracey Foster-Duriez with assistance from Todd McAleney. Underhill SPECS believes in selling top quality stock to top quality people and that in-turn leads to results, positive ROI and, in the end, future business. We are very proud and pleased to have some influential stock from our herd head to BC, including the unique homebred herd bull - Underhill Beef Wagon 5D. Tracey is a national competitor on the horse circuit and we have no doubt she will apply the same dedication to breeding and the further development of Speckle Park cattle in BC and beyond. We are lucky to have Tracey and Todd in this breed – there is no question. Desert Acres Profile: Tracey & Todd currently have 32 mostly commercial Speckle Park cattle, with approximately 350 acres of grazing and crop land. Tracey has been in the Arabian horse industry for almost 30 years and, after building her indoor riding arena and 8-stall barn, she retired to run the farm and facility full-time. After hearing from her vet, Dr. Ross, about the incredible feed conversation and temperament of the Speckle Park breed she went on a hunt for a new bull. She needed quiet easy calving cows that would flourish with BC’s short summers and long cold winters. Her first registered Speckle Park, “Matters Bold Ruler”, was purchased in October of 2014 as a bull calf and so the journey began. Commercial calves mostly sell right off the farm as they are so flashy. Desert Acres was represented by two steers and 1 cow/calf pair recently at their local 4H Achievement Day. Tracey says the comments are always about how quick and easily Speckle Park finish on feed.

Thank You

HEGGE CONSTRUCTION

for purchasing my steer Big Bad John and for supporting our local 4-H clubs… Courtney Wallace

With the calves selling right off the farm and so many people asking about registered Speckle Park, Desert Acres has since purchased two yearlings at the 2017 Top Cuts Sale and another in the 2018 Ontario Herd Builder Top 10 Sale. Tracey has watched the National Speckle Park Show at Western Canadian Agribition and from there her drive to compete and improve the breed was LIT!

Who eats Alberta beef?

The domestic demand for beef is strong in Canada. Explains Wood, “Comparing changes in beef consumption and price shows that consumption decreased about 8.4 per cent between 2013 and 2017 while the indexed price of beef rose 19.5 per cent during that same period. As well, average per capita beef consumption was 25.9 kilograms in 2017, up marginally from the previous year.” Wood adds that the average of various retail beef product

prices, as reported to Statistics Canada, shows that prices have remained relatively flat, averaging $19.30 per kg in the first five months of 2018. “Based on this average, retail beef prices are down five per cent from highs in 2016 but remain eight per cent higher than the five year average.” “By comparison, an average of various retail pork and chicken products shows that prices have shown more stability than beef,” says Wood. “The average retail pork price for 2018 is $12.77 per kg, on par with 2017. That is down three per cent from the high in 2016 and five per cent higher than the five year average.” The average retail chicken price in 2018 is $7.40 per kg, up two per cent from 2017, but down 1.6 per cent from 2016 and 1.6 per cent above the five year average. “While domestic prices have fluctuated, they have shown more stability compared to global price indices for red meats and poultry,” notes Wood. For more information about beef production numbers, contact Jason Wood at 780-4223122.

Demand for Alberta beef remains strong, both domestically and internationally. Jason Wood, provincial livestock market analyst with Alberta Agriculture and Forestry (AF), breaks down the numbers from the recently released Agriculture Facts 2018. Estimated Alberta beef production was 732,051 tonnes in 2017, up five per cent from 2016. “Of that,” says Wood, “Albertans consumed 16 per cent, or 117,128 tonnes. Canadians – outside of Alberta – consumed 51.3 per cent, or 375,542 tonnes. Alberta exported 24.3 per cent, or 177,888 tonnes to the U.S., while 8.4 per cent, or 61,492 tonnes, was exported to other countries.”

Pre-harvest perennial weed control The later stages of the growing season are a very effective time for controlling perennial weeds such as Canada thistle, quackgrass, and dandelion. “At this time of the year, perennial weeds are preparing for winter by putting energy reserves into their root systems and the application of a glyphosate product now generally provides very good control of these weeds,” says Mark Cutts, crop specialist at the Alberta Ag-Info Centre. “Glyphosate is a systemic herbicide that moves through the foliage into the root system and results in the death of the entire plant. Applying glyphosate to a standing crop is referred to as pre-harvest and has become a very common management practice.” “It should be noted that in order for the glyphosate application to be effective, the weeds need to be actively growing,” Cutts adds. “With drier conditions in areas of the province this growing season, an evaluation of these weeds should be made before a herbicide application.” Cutts says that producers considering pre-harvest as a management tool for their crops should consider several factors. Registered crops Pre-harvest glyphosate is registered on a number of crops including cereals (wheat, barley and oats), a number of pulse crops, canola, and flax. “Producers growing barley for malt should contact their malt buyer to ensure a pre-harvest application is acceptable. It should also be noted that a pre-harvest application shouldn’t be applied to a crop that’s being grown for seed due to potential reductions in germination and vigour levels.” Timing of application

For registered crops, pre-harvest applications should be done when seed moisture is less than 30 per cent. Says Cutts, “This moisture content can be assessed by using the thumb nail test or visual test. For example, in registered cereal crops, 30 per cent seed moisture correlates to the hard dough stage of the grain. At this stage, a thumb nail impression remains on the seed. In a field pea crop, a visual test is used. At 30 per cent seed moisture the majority of the pods (75-80 per cent) are brown. For visual symptoms for remaining registered crops, you can refer to the Crop Protection 2018 publication.” Rate of application The standard rate for glyphosate in a pre-harvest application is 360 grams active ingredient per acre. “Due to variations in the concentration of glyphosate products, producers will need to ensure that the glyphosate product is being applied at the proper rate. For example, the application rate will vary from 0.67 to 1.00 litres per acre depending upon the product being used.” Time required for weed control A minimum of three days are required after the application of the glyphosate before a crop can be swathed or harvested. “If weather conditions aren’t favourable after the glyphosate application, waiting a few extra days may benefit weed control,” says Cutts. For more information, call the Alberta Ag-Info Centre at 310-FARM (3276). Contact: Alberta Ag-Info Centre 310-FARM (3276)

Wheat markets in rally mode Wheat markets have been on an impressive rally since bottoming out mid-month and I have been getting questions from growers about when is it time to start selling new crop production. It’s good folks are thinking about incremental sales into a rising market. A fast and furious run of crop production threats coming from various sources and global regions have served as the rally catalyst over the past couple of weeks, with Europe being the epicentre right now. Minneapolis spring wheat futures have soared over $1 per bushel during this time, recovering back to the highs seen at the end of May. Searing heat has devastated wheat fields across northern Europe, while a combination of dry conditions and extreme rain in the Black Sea region have hit output estimates. European wheat prices have surged higher on fears of further crop damage and buyers who are panicked and short-bought cash wheat. Evidence of serious harm to crops has been escalating as the harvest season now pushes north into Germany, the European Union’s second largest wheat producer, and into Scandinavia, prompting further cuts to estimates for the 28-member bloc. Paris-traded Matif wheat futures have now punched dramatically up to four-year high territory. “The situation is catastrophic in northern Europe,” Strategie Grains head analyst Andree Defois said. The consultancy last week cut its forecast for this year’s soft wheat harvest in the EU, collectively the world’s largest wheat grower, below 130 million tonnes. This is a six-year low and Defois said it could revise the estimate down again. Minneapolis December spring wheat futures posted a low of $5.44 per bushel (July 11) and as high as $6.56 (Aug. 7 at time of writing). I don’t think this wheat rally is a

one-and-done affair. But, as wheat marketers, growers do need to give serious consideration in rewarding this rally with an incremental sale. It was only a couple of weeks ago that we all lamented the depths depression wheat pricing had slumped down into. Today, we are feeling better about marketing prospects as new crop pricing opportunities push up into $7 per bushel territory on 1 CWRS 13.5 wheat. It is going to take time for us to understand the substitution effect that is taking place as wheat crop prospects globally are being revised steadily lower, especially with respect to what is happening in Europe. That is a massive consuming region with big domestic needs. In quick succession, Minneapolis Dec wheat futures broke above its 20-, 50-, 100- and now 200-day moving averages. Who is to say further gains are not on tap? But with Minneapolis Dec wheat futures now testing up to important overhead resistance markers, it may be time to consider new crop pricing opportunities as a means to secure both a profitable price in a rising market and secure some offthe-combine delivery space. That said, I’ve also been thinking back to the summer of 2010 when Russia surprised the market with a drought-encumbered crop and prices rallied into a temporary August peak, set-back a bit, but then progressively moved to higher and higher highs through fall season 2010 and into the winter of 2011. I wonder if we might see a repeat performance? Conditions in Europe have wheat markets rallying, but as wheat marketers, growers need to give serious consideration to rewarding this rally with an incremental sale. Mike Jubinville of Pro Farmer Canada offers information on commodity markets and marketing strategies.

Solving the farm transition Rubik’s Cube

You may be tired of hearing about succession planning, so we’ve made the conscious decision in this special edition to reference transition, rather than succession, in most instances. Words matter. Most farm businesses are in a steady state of transition. They’re growing and/or doing something different, or the people involved are taking different roles. When you hear “succession” it implies the older generation is retiring. When you say “transition,” it doesn’t necessarily have that connotation. Whether you call it transition or succession, there are many aspects to consider. I enjoyed a presentation by Jonathan Small of MNP’s Red Deer, Alta., office some time ago where he compared the whole process to solving a Rubik’s Cube. The three-dimensional puzzle has six sides and each side has nine coloured stickers. The idea is to manipulate the cube so that each of the

six sides ends up one solid colour. You might be able to solve one side, but solving all the sides simultaneously is quite a trick. It’s very much like solving a transition puzzle. You might need a plan that simultaneously keeps the farm going as a viable entity, provides retirement income for the outgoing generation, minimizes any tax burden and occurs within legal parameters, all while maintaining family harmony. Financial planning experts, accountants, lawyers and lenders may all have a role in solving their particular area, but a solution on one side of the Rubik’s Cube might throw one or more of the other sides out of whack. In truth, you know when you’ve solved a Rubik’s Cube. A transition plan is always a work in progress and seldom will be perfect. From an AgriSuccess article (March 2018) by Kevin Hursh.

With one of the major packers totally off the market this week, the cow market sucks! One cow buyer said “it reminds me of BSE!” It wasn’t quite that bad, but here it is- the peak of burger and beer season and the cow market (where the burger comes from, for all who do not know this) is at the low for all summer. There aren’t enough feeder cattle moving in any ring to establish a true market value, but there seems to be lots of optimism about the fall and winter pricing. Hay prices seem to be moving upward like there is no feed around, but remember this, that with one big frost or hail storm we could have more feed than we could use. I say this not wanting this to happen- just saying! On another note... If the prime minister of googoo land came to Ottawa and said our human rights policy is wrong, what would you say? I know what I would sayit’s none of your concern, go home and mind your own business!! As high and mighty as Mr. Dress-Up thinks he is, the fact remains that he is minding someone else’s affairs. He hasn’t even settled his own affairs in his own country. I refer to the native issue in Canada. Trudeau, and I refuse to call him Mr. Trudeau, because he has done nothing to earn my respect, went to China and did the same thing and was shut down, went to Saudi Arabia and same thing. In both cases, he has caused the disruption of huge trade with once allies and now they have turned against us because of Trudeau nosing into their affairs and culture. Do we agree with the Saudis human rights policyno, but does that give us the right to go into their home and tell them how to handle the issue? In my mind- absolutely not. Have a great week, folks!

Federal, provincial ministers of ag helping sector grow, innovate

Canadian farmers, ranchers and processors across the country work hard every day to ensure that Canadians and consumers around the world have access to high-quality and healthy food. Canada’s agriculture and agri-food system contributes over $110 billion of our gross domestic product, and last year our agriculture, food and seafood exports hit an all-time record of $64.6

billion. Topics critical to the growth and continued prosperity of the sector were the focus of discussion at the annual meeting of federal, provincial and territorial (FPT) ministers of agriculture, co-chaired by Lawrence MacAulay, federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, and Lana Popham, Minister of Agriculture for British Columbia.

Ministers discussed how they can collaborate to create more jobs and support economic growth in the agriculture and agri-food sector. Canada’s agriculture and agri-food sector was recently identified in the Barton Report as one of six sectors with high potential for economic growth. An Agri-Food Economic Strategy Table was created as part of the federal Innovation Skills Plan and serves as a forum for industry leaders to explore opportunities and challenges facing the sector. The Table engaged FPT ministers on their views to drive growth in the sector. Ministers noted the significant work that the Table has undertaken and committed to work collaboratively with industry. Ministers acknowledged the importance of trade. They discussed on-going trade negotiations to maintain and grow market access for Canada, and the importance of working together to help the agricultural sector expand their businesses in key global markets. Ministers also reiterated their strong support for supply management. Ministers agreed that an appropriately skilled and increased labour supply in the short and long term is critical to future growth, and also agreed on the importance of ensuring the effectiveness of temporary foreign workers programs. FPT Ministers noted the successful launch in April 2018 of the Canadian Agricultural Partnership, a five-year, $3-billion investment to help the sector grow, innovate and prosper. The Partnership provides ongoing investments to support leading edge discovery and applied science, spur innovation, and promote international trade, while ensuring that producers continue to have access to business risk management (BRM) programs. The Government of Canada provided an update on progress toward legalization of cannabis. The cannabis industry is eligible to apply for federal programs under the Partnership. Provinces and territories have the discretion to determine eligibility for cannabis production for cost-shared programs. For BRM programs, income from cannabis (including both medicinal and recreational) are not eligible for support under AgriStability and AgriInvest. Governments agree to monitor this over the coming years as the cannabis industry matures and stabilizes. After significant effort over the

past year, the external panel of experts presented its recommendations on BRM programming. Ministers thanked the panel on concluding their work and directed officials to move forward with additional work required on the recommendations and to report back on progress to Ministers in 2019. Ministers remain committed to continued engagement with industry, external experts and other stakeholders. Topics at the meeting also included identifying areas for increased collaboration to streamline regulations, reduce regulatory burden and continue to uphold the safety and high quality of agricultural products. In addition, Ministers had the opportunity to hear about Indigenous agriculture activities currently underway in British Columbia and received an update from the federal government on the continued development of A Food Policy for Canada. The next annual meeting of FPT Ministers will be held in Quebec City in July 2019. “Canada’s farmers, ranchers and food processors provide safe, nutritious and sustainable food for the world, while creating well-paying jobs for our middle class. Federal, provincial and territorial governments are gathered here to focus on the overall competitiveness of the sector, and to create better opportunities for farmers and Canadians.” - The Honourable Lawrence MacAulay, federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food “It was wonderful to host my counterparts from around Canada here in Vancouver. As Agriculture ministers, we’re always looking at ways to make sure our programs and policies are working for farmers, producers and processors across the country. The discussions we had together on supporting research, trade and development, and on the next steps in business risk management programs bring the voices, ideas and concerns of Canadian farmers to the table, and ensure they are part of the conversation. I look forward to continuing to build strong relationships across Canada and working together for Canadian food production and security.” - The Honourable Lana Popham, Minister of Agriculture for British Columbia

Worry free crop storage A little preparation prior to harvesting can ensure worry-free winter crop storage. Harry Brook, crop specialist at the Alberta Ag-Info Centre looks at solutions to potential storage problems. “Warm or wet conditions at harvest and multi-staged crops are potential ingredients for storage problems,” says Brook. “You’ve spent a lot of money and time getting the harvest in the bin. Take the time to monitor the stored grain’s condition and cool those bins down. Don’t get an unpleasant surprise when selling the grain with discounts or by being rejected for heated grain or insect problems.” Brook says producers should clean up spilled grain from around their bins to prevent them from becoming breeding sites for beetles. “Most empty grain bins will have some form of insect or mites feeding on the cereal crop residue. These bins need to be swept or vacuumed out with the debris being either burned or buried.

BUILT FOR EVERY POSSIBILITY When we designed the Cub Cadet Challenger Utility Vehicles, we built them for any possibility. Front- and rear-mounting systems with secure attachment points Let you customize your Challenger any way you can imagine. Make it your own with the accessories that tailor it to your specific needs.

“Malathion can be sprayed into a bin to control insects in the nooks and crannies feeding on crop debris, but only in those bins that will be used to store cereals. It is forbidden to use malathion in bins used to store oilseeds. Empty bins can also be treated with diatomaceous earth prior to storing all crops. Diatomaceous earth can also be added to the crop as the bin is filling as a preventative measure.” Storing the crop is also risky, especially with hot or damp grain, says Brook. “Safe storage is a combination of both the temperature of the grain and its moisture level when stored. The Grain Storage - FAQ webpage contains a list of crops and the maximum moisture content that are considered to be ‘dry’ at and safe to store.”

Hot grain also acts as a beacon

to cereal grain insects. “Rusty grain beetles are good fliers and they home in on hot grain, infiltrating the bin and starting to breed in the high moisture zone.” The Grain Storage - FAQ webpage also includes a chart that show approximately how long damp grain can be stored safely and estimates the amount of time for safe storage. “Be warned that deterioration can start to occur before the time expires,” says Brook. “It still has to be either dried or aerated. Grain aeration is best used in the fall to cool the crop temperatures down, allowing crop to be safely stored over the winter.” Drying via aeration requires warmer temperatures and low humidity, which are often lacking in the fall. “Fall temperatures will continue to drop, lengthening the time it takes to bring moisture levels down. Even dry, hot grain placed in a bin creates moisture migration. It takes time for grain to stop respiring and moisture to equalize in the bin. The hot grain or oilseed creates circulation in the bin. Cold air outside will cool the grain against the bin sides and moisture will move down the outsides of the bin the come up the middle. If there is any place for the moisture to accumulate, it will be just below the top, middle of the bin. Green seed or immature seed in the bin may also contain more moisture and add to the problem. This is why it is imperative when harvesting hot grain to cool it quickly. Aeration under hot harvest temperatures is important to get the grain or oilseed temperature down to a safe storage level.” Find more information on the Cereal Grain Drying and Storage webpage, including a diagram of moisture migration in a bin, or contact the Alberta Ag-Info Centre at 310-FARM (3276).

Western Canadian Championships a hit in Pink Mountain The Western Canadian sheepdog finals was hosted this year in Pink Mountain B.C. at the Boring Ranch. This trial is open to any members running open or nursery who wish to represent the four western provinces: Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. Judging this event was Werner Reitboeck from Ottawa, Ontario. The first days run consisted of a four hundred yard outrun to bring the sheep to the handler and then a drive to get the sheep around a course and through some panels. Once back to the handler the four sheep were worked into a pen and then moved into a measured circled called a shedding ring, where 2 sheep were split apart. The second days run had an added element of singling one sheep off and keeping it separate from the other three sheep until the judge deemed the work satisfactory. Competition was intense and competitors vied for a high enough

score to qualify for one of the top 8 positions to get into the double lift that would determine this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s champion. The double lift consisted of two sets of sheep set at different locations down the field at 400 yards. The dogs picked up one set of sheep and brought them through a set of panels and then were sent back to gather the second set of sheep. Once these sheep were brought through the panels they were joined with the first group to comprise a total of 17 head that were then fetched to the handler, turned around a cone and driven through two sets of panels. The next leg of work was to sort 2 sheep off that had collars around their necks and two sheep who had no collars from the group of 17. This work is called an international shed and if finished correctly leaves the handler with four sheep who are then worked into a pen. The Open Championship went to Carol Nelson and Piper from Pink

Mountain B.C. followed by the Reserve being won by Dennis Gellings and Tess from Dawson Creek. Congratulations to the other 6 competitors and dogs who had great runs and displayed fine talent throughout their work. The Nursery Champion was determined by the highest accumulated score over the two days and this went to Dennis Gellings and Soot of Dawson Creek with Steve Davies and Max from Grande Prairie, Alta. becoming the Reserve Champions. The Driving Championship went to Wayne Roberts and his dog Drift from Valleyview, Alberta. Top open scoring dog for B.C. went to Carol Nelson and Piper

These competitions are all designed around the practical work and skills that are needed in working livestock every day on ranches. The two gathers show how one bunch of stock is brought to a holding area while the dog is sent to gather stock from another area. Moving stock through panels represents the control used to move stock to a specific destination. Shedding and penning stock are skills used when a specific animal may need to be taken away from the rest for treatment or special attention. All these tasks are required work on ranches and the competitions simply show case these skills.

Keep it Clean and PreHarvest Intervals

A reminder from the Alberta Pulse Growers about pre-harvest intervals and the Keep it Clean campaign. Nevin Rosaasen, policy and program specialist with Alberta Pulse, explains the initiative. “Keep it Clean is an information campaign for producers who are using crop protection products, so we can maintain market access to the different countries where our crops are ultimately exported,” says Rosaasen.

With harvest season right around the corner, Rosaasen says that producers will be looking at their options for either pre-harvest weed control or a desiccation product. “Producers need to be aware of market risks that can exist due to maximum residue

limits. They ultimately have to observe the label, and they need to make sure the timing of their application is indeed correct with the label’s application guidelines. Producers also need to ensure they adhere to the pre-harvest interval which is the time from applying a product until it is either swathed or combined.” More than 85 per cent of Canada’s pulse production is exported around the world. Market Considerations for Use of Pulse Crop Protection Products found on keepingitclean.ca under pulse crops is published quarterly to inform pulse producers of the latest information concerning crop protection products and market access.

The Northern Horizon, August 17, 2018

ON THE

OPEN ROAD R0011490554

The community of Two Hills. Wasn’t that a party? I pulled into the grocery store in Two Hills to meet up with my girlfriend Laurie from Fort Saskatchewan. She had picked up the order of Scavenger Hunt Maps that Staples had printed for us. All 20,000 of them, her poor little Ford Thunderbird sports car! Well, we set about dropping off maps to lighten her load and then went to the Two Hills Inn for some Chinese for lunch. Lemon Chicken and Special Fried Rice! As usual the portions were so huge that Laurie took enough leftovers home for her and her hubby to have for super! Although the Two Hills Inn is an old building, Julie and her hubby, Chow, have renovated all of the rooms and they are really decent rooms, with individual air conditioners, bathrooms, albeit small ones in each room, comfy beds and a really good price point. On Friday night the rally serves up a welcome dinner as part of your rally fee, and this year was no different except that lightning had knocked out the power to the better part of the entire town for about an hour and as a result dinner was late getting underway. Josee Milroy and her team of volunteers including Twiggy did an amazing job serving up ham, veggies, lazy cabbage rolls, buns, salad.... Music got underway with Anthony Poirier the one man band and people started coming in from their soggy campsites to listen to him. The Steven Spencer band came on at about 10 pm and rocked the house out. When my time to hit the hay came I took the shuttle sponsored by Wing Shot Guiding Service over to my motel room and closed the door on an amazing day. In spite of Mother Nature’s hissy fit, the riders just kept coming, and coming and the unofficial headcount was about 485 people registered, down from 700+ of the year before, but still an admirable and respectable number! Tara Allen was on hand with her massage studio and there was a gal there selling skull candles - Wicked Wanda was selling her leather gear and managing sales of the Run to the Hills Memorial Rally gear and Wayside Fallen Riders Park gear

and The Bear Biker Wear was also on hand as usual - Bear and Penny are a joy to be around! Lots of bikes entered the Show ‘n’ Shine, mud and all, about 350-400 took in the roll call with Pastor Wes as the of 28 names of lost love ones were read out after a short sermon and there were about 40 brave souls who went out on the poker run. After the rodeo games, which were shorter than normal thanks to the wet ground conditions and the ensuing safety concerns, I caught up with some good friends and was invited for a feast of corn, roasted potatoes and baked BBQ’d pork chops. Joey Carruthers Csapo, you rock! There was a wedding happening, but word throughout the campground was that the wedding party did not really want the rest of the rally goers to attend, so many just stayed in the camping area while the wedding party were riding around honking their horns and revving their throttles letting everyone know they were part of the wedding. There were a whole host of wonderful people from the community of Two Hills doing security - the Fire Department, town and county had a number of volunteers working their butts off and the gals that were running the bar were phenomenal. Heck earlier in the day the mayor had come out to welcome us all and to thank Bob and the whole Rally Committee for everything they do through the motorcycle community that aides Two Hills town and county so much. The Fire Chief for the county, Brad Straty rides and volunteered in security, and one of the longest serving members of the Ag Society, Cleta Dieken attended the rally on her bike. Sherry Baker, the manager of the Junction Inn loves riding and volunteered on the shooter bar, Deb Tupetchka a town councillor was on the gate with her mom handling registrations. In fact county employees and volunteers from other organizations in Two Hills were all taking part in helping this rally succeed. Out of all of the volunteers though, Ricky is

probably the best loved of all them all, as this man who has his challenges, is the most friendly ambassador a community could ask for and as usual he was out keeping the grounds clean. Ricky’s smile, hugs and handshakes are well received by all! After Miss Charlie Vegas, the burlesque dancer did her routine - which was incredible given the small stage for her to perform on, I brought Rita around with me to sell raffle tickets. One of Bob’s volunteers is a gal named Sue Tchakuk and when I asked, she brought me 8 boxes of crayons. She liked this idea I had of holding an adult colouring competition! We divided the crayons up into beer glasses and started handing out the scavenger hunt maps, you see Road Trip Rita is featured on the back of the Two Hills Scavenger Hunt Map! The prize for this contest? A shot of Jack Daniels.... What we didn’t expect was the number of people who coloured my beaver and the number who actually submitted their creations for judging! Bob Ross chose the winning entry by Sharon and Nadine. I laughed until I cried at the good old fashioned, tongue in cheek adult humour. My face and tummy hurt from laughing so hard. If you are blessed enough to be riding today, please remember to Ride like everyone around you is blind and can not see you! Belt Drive Betty Editor & Rider

Another Peace Region Pest Update: pests to broad leaf plants Included in our monitoring projects is the Bertha Armyworm (Mamestra configurata), a pest to broad leaf plants, especially Canola, Flax, and Peas. It is native to North America and belongs to a group of insects called the climbing cutworms. The purpose for monitoring this insect is to determine the regional risk of an outbreak in advance as the moths migrate into the region, before the appearance of the damaging (larval) stage. Our trap is designed to monitor the adult stage of Bertha Armyworm using a pheromone that attracts male Berthas. From this we can make inferences about the number of larvae in the area. From the first week in June, to the first week in August is when crops are most at risk to Bertha Armyworm damage. They tend to feed on the underside of leaves and can go undetected as they fall off leaves when disturbed. If larva is pres-

ent in numbers more than 20 per meter squared, one may need to consider using an insecticide to keep the crop yield from suffering. In normal years, populations are kept low naturally by cold or wet winters, natural predators, and diseases. It is when these natural controls cease that we may start to see numbers increase. There are four stages in their lifecycle (eggs, pupae, larvae, and adults) and only one generation per year. The adult form of a Bertha Armyworm is a moth, while the larva is not as their name suggests, it is a caterpillar. Larvae start as about 3mm long and usually are pale green with a pale-yellow stripe to start but molt several times over larval growth to 4cm and a brown head with yellow stripe on the body. For best management practices, producers should consider using risk assessment maps provided by the Prairie Pest Monitoring Network which can show regional early warning signs to scout fields for larvae. These maps are available

Jenna Hiebert Peace Region Pest Update

on the Alberta Insect Pest Monitoring Network website at: http://agriculture.alberta.ca/bugspest, or the Prairie Pest Monitoring Network Blog: http://prairiepestmonitoring.blogspot. com/. Monitor larval numbers in the early pod staging in each field as adjacent fields may have very different larval densities laid. Remember, twenty larvae per square meter in canola can reduce yields by 1.16 bushels per acre. Use economic threshold levels to determine if spraying is warranted. Allow beneficial insects like the Ichneumonid wasp (Banchus flavescens) and Tachinid fly (Athrycia cinerea) that prey on Bertha Armyworm to control populations by only spraying when economic thresholds are reached. Please continue to look for these articles as next week we will cover a disease that affects canola yield. Sclerotinia (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum); stay safe and have fun.
