‘Game changing’ breeding nears Crop breeding’s holy grail | Pollination would no longer be required in seed production BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Scientists are making strides on the “holy grail” of crop breeding and canola is the crop where the new technology is the most advanced. “This would be the single biggest revolutionary change created by biotechnology for crops,” said Paul Arni-

son, president of Botanical Alternatives Inc., an agricultural biotechnology consulting firm. The technology centres on a process known as apomixis, where the female reproductive system of certain plants occasionally produces seed without pollination. Scientists have known about the process since the dawn of crop breed-

ing but they haven’t been able to get a handle on it until recently, said Wilf Keller, president of Ag-West Bio Inc. “It has been too hard to manage and understand but now with whole genomic sequencing we can maybe get at those complex genes that trigger the process,” he said. “It could revolutionize the way we develop hybrid vigour.”

That’s because pollination would no longer be required in the seed production process. Arnison said Tim Sharbel, a Canadian researcher working for a German plant genetics company, has made huge strides in understanding how the apomixtic process works in canola. SEE ‘GAME CHANGING’, PAGE 2

‘Game changing’ breeding nears “He has discovered how it works in brassica and there’s only two genes that seem to be involved,” he said. Arnison figures it is only a matter of two or three years before Sharbel has a good enough grasp of the genes and how the whole process works that the trait can be moved into the commercialization phase of crop development. Once that happens, the crop breeding world will be turned on its head. “This is what we call game changing technology. It changes the way that hybrid seed can be made,” said Arnison. The biggest benefit is that it would allow seed technology companies to create hybrids in crops where today’s technology has proven too difficult and costly. Hybrids are easier to produce in cross-pollinating crops like corn and canola than self-pollinating crops like wheat. Apomixis would level the playing field because it would eliminate the need for pollination. “It would almost be like the holy grail of plant breeding,” said Keller. “We have a lot of species like lentils, peas, oats and wheat where we can’t make hybrids in those. Using this process we might be able to.” Farmers would be able to save their hybrid seed, plant it the following year and get the same agronomic performance out of their farm-saved seed.

Arnison said seed technology companies are excited about apomixis despite the potential for lost sales due to farm saved seed. “It doesn’t necessarily undermine their business at all. It may make their business even more profitable,” he said. “I can assure you that the big multinational seed companies like (DuPont) Pioneer are working on apomixis.” One major advantage for seed companies is that they will be able to transfer the risk of hybrid seed production to farmers in addition to charging them an annual fee to use their licensed technology. And it’s not like hybrid seed sales will dry up. Most farmers won’t save hybrid seed forever because companies will be constantly coming out with improved varieties. “The number of hybrids that will b e c o m e ava i l a b l e w i l l g re at l y increase because it’s so much easier to keep them and make them,” said Arnison. So what does the farmer get? There will be more companies producing more hybrids and getting them to market sooner than they are today. And there is the possibility that growers will get varieties that are better suited for their particular area because it will be easier to produce specialty hybrids. “It’s just an extremely useful new technology,” said Arnison.

Two University of British Columbia professors have been recognized for their work in bovine welfare. Daniel Weary and Marina von Keyserlingk are joint recipients of the 2013 Metacam 20 Bovine Welfare Award. They were selected by the Canadian Association of Bovine Veterinarians and by the Boehringer Ingelheim pharmaceutical company. The award is given annually to a Canadian veterinarian or animal scientist considered to have advanced the welfare of animals. Weaver is a professor at UBC and co-founder of the university’s animal welfare program, which was designed to improve animals’ lives through research, education and outreach, according to a news release announcing the award.

His research involves dairy cattle comfort, calf feeding, lameness and pain management. Keyserlingk, also a UBC professor, used her expertise in dairy cattle nutrition and management to improve the animal welfare program, the release said. She and Weaver are now investigating links between cow behaviour and nutrition as it relates to welfare. “Their work in dairy cattle welfare has impacted countless individuals, whether producers, veterinarians, nutritionists, consultants, students and the general public,” said the release. “In the past 11 years, their research has spanned and covered nearly all issues related to dairy cattle welfare.” The two scientists have published more than 140 research papers, several book chapters and numerous other scholarly works.

MINING | LAND US E

Farmers protest restrictions that limit drilling Producers want compensation for limits on their mineral rights BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Farmers who own their mineral rights near a potash mine in southeastern Saskatchewan want to be able to take advantage of them. But a provincial policy enacted almost 20 years ago restricts drilling for oil on 72 sections of farmland around potash mines for safety reasons. Landowners who still own their mineral rights aren’t able to earn income from oil drilling or seismic testing because energy companies aren’t allowed on that land. Trevor Bearance, who farms a century family farm near Rocanville, said he doesn’t dispute a call for caution in terms of mine worker and infrastructure safety, but said there should also be compensation for what he and about 190 others have been forced to give up. Both the government and the potash companies have a responsibility to pay. “If it’s necessary to do business then it’s a cost of doing business,” he said of the restricted areas. The then-NDP government quietly established Potash Restricted Drilling Areas in 1996 with a notice in The Saskatchewan G a z e tte. Landowners have always maintained they weren’t properly notified or consulted. In 2007 at the annual convention of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities, delegates passed a resolution noting landowners were not consulted nor given any explanation for the new law. The resolution called for adequate compensation from the government and potash mines for the lost income. However, the issue has never been resolved. A class action lawsuit initiated in 2010 has stalled. Bearance said the situation is further complicated by disagreement among landowners about whether the PRDAs should be eliminated. As well, the issue of how much compensation is adequate must be resolved. The area in question is on the edge of the Bakken oil play. “There’s sugarplums dancing in some mineral holders’ eyes thinking they’re going to get the biggest lottery they could have ever had a ticket on, and other people here who think it’s not nearly as much as they all dream it is,” he said. The government might have the answer but it isn’t talking about this issue. Bearance said the matter isn’t about money as much as principle. “My family has managed, out of an 800-acre farm, to have kept all of half of the mineral rights on one quarter section,” he said. “This really isn’t about money. “This is Saskatchewan and you don’t do things like this to Saskatchewan people and you don’t do things like this to Saskatchewan farmers.”

HARVEST | PEACE RIVER REGION

Peace farmers see big yields Not everybody so lucky | Wheat midge and too much heat may have caused problems in some areas BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

Timely rain during the growing season and great weather during harvest have created some of the best crops in parts of Alberta’s Peace River region. “It’s the easiest harvest we’ve had in my little farming career,” said Greg Wieben, of Fairview. “After the first 2 1/2 weeks we were wanting rain to have a break. “We did all the wheat without rain, that is rare,” said Wieben, who estimated his wheat averaged 55 bushels per acre. Canola on the farm ranged from 35 to 65 bu. per acre. The hot, dry harvest weather pushed canola moisture to close to six percent. Wieben said he welcomed the recent rain to bump canola moisture levels back to around 10 percent.

The family has about 50 acres of late-seeded canola yet to harvest. “I was planning on seeding barley, but I had canola in my drill,” said Wieben, of his late-seeded crop. Paul Schoorlemmer of Rycroft said harvest is slower than normal because of the heavier crop. “We had some pretty good growing conditions. We had a lot of showers and a lot of timely rains. At no point did we have too much rain. “Moisture levels were pretty close to ideal all summer long and because of that, the crop is well above average.” Schloorlemmer said hard red spring wheat ranged from 70 to 75 bu. per acre and Canadian prairie spring wheat ranged from 80 to 90 bu. per acre with a range of protein levels. Peas averaged about 70 bu. per acre and canola yields about 50 bu. per

acre, he said. “Every spring, you have hope of a really good crop coming off in good condition. The price has tailed off, but the volumes are more than making up for some of the drop in price.” The biggest concern now is weather with good harvest weather in October not guaranteed. “It’s always a concern about weather until you’re done.” However, the story on Ray Blanchette’s farm, west of Girouxville, is different. “Canola was either really good or bad because of too much moisture or too much heat at the end,” said Blanchette, who struggled with weeds in his canola because he couldn’t spray at the proper time. What he thought was an estimated 60 bu. per acre wheat crop turned out to be an 18 bu. crop. He blames wheat midge as the probable cause.

His wheat yields range from 22 to 32 to 36 to 55 bu. per acre depending on the field. He doesn’t know why the one field yielded 55 bu. per acre, but he said he may have unknowingly killed the wheat midge while spraying for grasshoppers. The only indication it may have been wheat midge is the flecks of orange on the combine. “At harvest you were either pleasantly surprised or very unpleasantly surprised,” he said. “I thought it was a 50 or 60 bushel crop. If you look at stubble, it looks fantastic in places, but the yields just weren’t there.” Blanchette’s canola yielded 36 bu. per acre on one field and 28 bu. on another. He has about 240 acres of canola left and is hoping it yields 30 to 40 bu. per acre.

Large prairie crops will test grain handling system Delivery problems | Big haul expected to result in congestion STORIES BY BRIAN CROSS

SEPTEMBER CROP FORECAST

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canadian major crop production (forecast):

A bumper harvest will put added pressure on Western Canada’s grain handling system and is likely to leave some farmers scrambling to find delivery opportunities. Saskatchewan agriculture minister Lyle Stewart says logistical challenges are nothing new to prairie farmers, but this year’s unusually large crop could present unforeseen problems. “This isn’t our first big crop but this may be a record crop,” Stewart said. “We’ve faced logistical challenges in the past but this … will likely put new pressure on our ability to move grain to saltwater from landlocked Saskatchewan.” By some estimates, western grain and oilseed producers will harvest more than 31 million tonnes of wheat and durum, 17 million tonnes of canola, nine million tonnes of barley and 3.75 million tonnes of peas. Available space in the commercial grain handling system is already tight, and delivery opportunities are expected to be scarce, especially for barley and oats. Errol Anderson, a market analyst with ProMarket Consulting in Calgary, said farmers with cash flow concerns should consider more than price when making marketing decisions. “What I’m sensing is that we’re in a classic (situation) where we’re going to have congestion in this market right through to spring,” Anderson said. “We’ve been encouraging growers to try to deliver where possible and to try to separate the delivery decision from the pricing decision. That will be very important because of that movement problem. It’s just going to be a grind for everybody.”

He said the magnitude of this year’s crop will put a strain on rail car capacity and grain companies. Commercial storage is already tight and will likely become tighter. “We’re seeing depressed prices because of it,” Anderson said. “Basis prices have weakened because of delivery issues and commercial storage is filling and is going to plug.” Producers who focus only on price might be tempted to pass on some deliver y oppor tunities before Christmas. However, Anderson cautioned that the size of this year’s crop is likely to mean ongoing congestion after Christmas and throughout the spring delivery period. “A lot of growers have the cash flow to withstand (low prices this fall), but at some point the grain will have to move and it will be after Christmas,” he said. High protein wheat and canola will likely see better movement than other crops.

Deliveries of barley and oats are already well below last year’s pace, according to the Canadian Grain Commission’s Grain Statistics Weekly. Stewart said the province is watching the situation and is talking with railroads and grain companies about where potential bottlenecks may arise and what steps can be taken to alleviate pressure. Last week, delegates at the TriNational Agricultural Accord in Saskatoon asked federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz if Canada’s rail and grain handling systems would be able to handle this year’s large crop without major problems. “Logistics are always the possible bottleneck,” Ritz said. “But both of our major railways have spent a billion dollars on their main lines in Western Canada preparing for this. My bigger concern is not just one of logistics for agriculture, it’s the growing demand for oil movement.… There’s only one set of tracks and all of those oil cars are going to have to move as well, so that’s something that we’re watching to see what happens.” Ritz said recent rail legislation puts a greater onus on railways to move products as quickly and efficiently as possible. However, rail capacity is limited, and demand from Western Canada’s oil and gas industry is increasing. Statistics Canada data on rail car loadings show that movement of crude oil by rail in Western Canada has doubled in the last two years. Approximately 47,400 rail cars were loaded with crude in the West in the 12-month period ending July 31, 2012, compared to nearly 95,000 cars over the same period ending July 31, 2013.

Farmers in many regions are anticipating big harvests, which could generate problems for storage, delivery and transportation. This crop is being taken off by Dennis Lang and Brian Rempel at Daoust Farms near Zenon Park, Sask. | BRIAN REMPEL PHOTO

GRAIN | MARKETING

CWB continues to make plans for privatization despite ongoing legal battles 2016 deadline | CWB plans to unveil full details in 2014, while parties continue legal fight over organization’s assets Canada’s agriculture minister is looking forward to learning more about CWB’s plan to privatize the former Canadian Wheat Board, including its plan to offer equity to farmers who sell grain through the CWB. Gerry Ritz said last week he has seen no details of the CWB’s privatization plan, other than what was posted recently on its website about farmer equity. CWB is offering $5 of equity for each tonne of grain that farmers market through the CWB in 2013-14. The equity plan is one component of the CWB’s privatization plan. Other details will be announced in the coming weeks. “I haven’t seen it,” Ritz said of the privatization plan Sept 23. “I’ve (only) seen the website … and the speculation as to them moving forward.” CWB has until August 2016 to submit a plan for privatizing the former wheat board.

The plan must be approved by the federal agriculture minister and executed by Aug. 1, 2017. Ritz said CWB officials have indicated that they will present their plan in 2014, well before the 2016 deadline. “The timeframe in the five–year transition period … said that in 2014, at some point in 2014, they would come to me with a plan,” Ritz said. “They’re ahead of schedule and they tell me they’re excited to be ahead of schedule.” Ritz said he is not concerned that CWB equity is being offered only to farmers who sell grain through the CWB in 2013-14 or later. Securities regulators have informed CWB that equity in the privatized company can’t be offered retroactively on grain sales made before 2013-14. Anders Bruun, a Winnipeg lawyer who is leading a $17 billion class action against Ottawa, said the prom-

ise of CWB equity is short on detail, especially given that the organization is involved in unsettled legal claims. “I’ve seen a couple of pages on their website, but it doesn’t look like an equity offering to me and I don’t think there’s been a prospectus that’s been put together … so I don’t know precisely what form of equity they’re issuing,” Bruun said. “To the extent that there is any value or assets that are being given away here, then the question that arises is who might have a better claim to those assets or that equity,” he continued. “I would say, off the top of my head, that the farmers who put the money into the wheat board and built it up … (before) the end of the 2012 crop year would have a very good claim to that equity, whatever it might be.” The value of CWB’s assets and the dispute over who owns them is the subject of an ongoing legal controversy.

In its 2011-12 annual report — the wheat board’s last as a single desk entity — CWB said three class action lawsuits had been filed against Ottawa seeking damages allegedly caused by Bill C-18, the bill that ended the board’s single desk marketing authority. Two of those suits — the Filson class action launched in Saskatoon and the Katerenchuk class action launched in Alberta — were seeking damages of $15.4 billion. The Dennis class action, led by Bruun, is seeking $17 billion in damages. “It is not possible to predict the outcome of this lawsuit and the amount of damages, if any, that may be assessed against the Corporation,” the CWB’s annual report states. Among other things, the class actions are seeking farmer compensation for assets contained in a CWB contingency fund that was valued at $145 million as of July 31, 2012.

That fund, which included contributions of more than $42 million in the 2011-12 crop year, can be used to finance any activities set out in CWB’s annual corporate plan or for any other purposes approved by Ottawa. Ritz suggested that discussions over the value of CWB’s assets are meaningless. The value of CWB’s assets was more than offset by its financial liabilities, he said. “That’s one of the reasons that, as a federal government, we put forward some $350 million to make sure their pension plan was actuarily sound and to make sure that the costs they had would be covered,” he said. “There’s all this talk about these assets, the rail cars, the buildings and so on, but I can tell you that there were loans against those (assets) that would have taken … them (down) as a private sector. “There were no assets to turn back to farmers.”

SHELTERBELT NURSERY | COALITION PRESENTS PLAN

Ritz rejects APAS business plan for tree nursery $1.5 million request denied | Ag minister says other groups are interested in the asset

GET TO KNOW INDIAN HEAD • Indian Head is located about 70 kilometres east of Regina, beside the Canadian Pacific Railway’s main east-west line. • In 1882, the 53,000 acre Bell Farm began operations, and spurred development with a grain elevator, flour mill and hotel in town, a few months before railway tracks were laid through the district.

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A farm group’s efforts to rescue a federal government tree nursery have suffered a setback. Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz is unimpressed with the business plan tabled by the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan to take over operations of the Agroforestry Development Centre in Indian Head, Sask. The government announced in 2012 that it was shutting down the Prairie Shelterbelt Program and selling off the nursery to the private sector. It provided a coalition led by APAS with $45,000 in funding to put together a business plan for taking over the nursery. The group submitted a plan in September calling for the government to lease the facility to the coalition for two to three years and to provide $1.5 million in transition funding. That didn’t sit well with the agriculture minister. “I was disappointed that APAS used federal government money to put together a business plan that said the federal government should continue to keep paying,” said Ritz during a media scrum at a recent funding announcement for camelina breeding. “We’re not going to do that. Publicly, I’ll reject that application. If they

want to get serious, then so will I.” APAS president Norm Hall said it was a serious proposal. The lease and transition funding requests were necessitated by the government’s rush to get rid of the asset by year’s end. “We’re very disappointed with his reaction,” said Hall.

The coalition includes APAS, Keystone Agricultural Producers, the Alberta Federation of Agriculture, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, British Columbia Grain Producers Association, the RM of Indian Head, the Town of Indian Head and the Peace River Regional District. “We represent the folks that were planting the trees,” he said. The group wanted to get together with the minister to discuss its plan but that won’t be happening. “He won’t even entertain a meeting with us. He is supposedly too busy,” said Hall. The coalition is now considering

Plan B, which is to find other sources of funding to purchase the nursery. “I don’t know if we’re going to get very far with that, but we have no choice now,” said Hall. Ritz said there are eight other groups vying for the asset. He wants to see their business plans by this fall. “We’d like to see something happen by the end of this calendar year so they could move forward with next spring,” he told reporters. Hall said the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat has a protocol that must be followed for the sale of government assets and he believes it would be impossible for Ritz to meet

his own deadline while adhering to those rules. Ritz has stated he wants the nursery to be sold as a going concern but Hall said the facility is already running on a skeleton staff, hasn’t sent out any order forms for the fall and is falling into a state of disrepair. “We’re just hoping that there is a tree nursery there when it does end up being sold,” he said. “It will just be a weedy field that they’re selling.” Hall said some of the suitors for the property have no interest in keeping it as a tree nursery, which would be a shame.

FEDERAL FUNDING | CROP DEVELOPMENT

Camelina sativa, mustard get boost from Ottawa BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The federal government is investing millions of dollars in two minor oilseed crops. Late last week, federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz announced $3.7 million in funding for a new industrial oilseed that will be used to make lubricants, polymers and other products. “This project will deliver superior, market-ready varieties of camelina sativa to growers across Canada,” said the minister. He followed that up earlier this week with $4.9 million to develop new and higher yielding varieties of condiment mustard, as well as industrial mustard for the biofuel sector. “This investment will improve mustard seed yield and quality, ensuring that Canada remains a leader in the mustard industry,” said Ritz in a media release. Agriculture Canada researchers will be working with the mustard industry to develop crops with higher protein and mucilage content and improved disease resistance. The goal of the industrial mustard breeding program is to produce crops with high oil and protein con-

tent that are early maturing and have improved disease resistance. Research will also be conducted on fertilizer and weed management, rotational benefits and water use efficiency. “Mustard 21 Canada is very pleased to have this renewed commitment to mustard research,” said Mustard 21 chair Baine Fritzler in the release. “This will enable mustard producers and the mustard processing and handling system in Canada to maintain their position as world leaders in supplying mustard to national and international markets.” Linnaeus Plant Sciences, the company managing the camelina breeding project, said the money will provide five more years of funding for the program. “This will position us as a leader worldwide in developing this crop,” said Linnaeus president Jack Grushcow. Camelina breeders will be attempting to boost yield, increase seed size, introduce herbicide tolerance, shorten the growing season and improve oil profiles of the crop. The federal government has been providing financial assistance for the oilseed crop for a number of years. “I found a partner in the nuthouse

with the minister because he has been supporting this program since 2007. We’re very much appreciative,” said Grushcow. Linnaeus has now received nearly $15 million in government funding to develop the crop. The money is starting to produce some tangible results. The company intends to contract 5,000 acres of camelina next spring. Linnaeus is partnering with Chaplin Grain Corporation, an elevator in Chaplin, Sask., that will be dealing directly with growers. Some Western Canadian farmers had a bad experience growing camelina under contract for a different company a few years ago. Great Plains — The Camelina Company, a firm headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, failed to fully honour contracts it signed with growers. Farmers also complained that it

was a difficult crop to produce due to its tiny seed size, tough straw and excess dockage. Grushcow said Linnaeus is purposely contracting a small amount of the crop because the company doesn’t want to get ahead of itself. “We want every grower to be successful and we want to make sure that we build the market in a stepwise fashion,” he said. A crusher in Oregon will process the seed produced from the contracted acreage.

What goes up, must come down Farmers anxious as prices fall | Larger than expected volumes of grain causing price slump BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

After the party comes the hangover. And after all the excitement, the regrets. That’s the marketing situation for many prairie farmers as they deal with big crops they can’t store and prices they don’t like. “People are familiar with high prices from last year. We’re hearing a lot of people say they won’t price (barley) until it’s at least $4 minimum,” said Jared Seitz of Agfinity, a Spruce Grove, Alberta, grain brokerage business. “But we’re not in a $5 or $4 market for barley. If you’re truly going to target $5 or $4 barley, you might be hanging on to it for a lot longer than your marketing plan calls for.” Many prairie farmers have an unexpected marketing problem: they have much more grain to price and move than they expected. This is partly due to higher than

expected yields in most regions. The late spring and cool July didn’t hurt production as expected. Farmers also held back from pricing new crop because of declining prices for most of the summer. Now many have piles of grain and pressure to price and move grain to pay the fall bills, leaving them morose as they look at their options. There’s some anxiety about what it’ll take to sell all the volume. “There was a roller-coaster ride this harvest with excitement at the end of August with signs of bumper crops, but as we saw the price falling off we started to come down the roller-coaster and the excitement turned into larger disappointment because they had more to lose,” said Seitz. Analyst Jim Beusekom of Market Place Commodities in Lethbridge said marketing dynamics are a reversal from the 2012 harvest. A year ago, farmers were feeding a scared and aggressive market.

“Then, the farmer could pretty much set a target price higher than what the current price was and before long someone would come along and hit it,” said Beusekom. “This year, it’s a lot harder to hit target prices. The markets have been running away from your price, not towards it.” If farmers set target price triggers, the grain could sit unsold until they chop the price to match a declining market. Beusekom said market price orders are often necessary in this climate to move grain. If farmers want to keep their grain until the harvest pressure is off, they need to have storage if they want any reasonable chance at significantly better prices. “If you’re just going to be selling in a month from now, why hang on to it?” said Beusekom. Seitz and Beusekom said grain markets seem to be stabilizing and might be bottoming. The real chances, however, for gains are

months from now when attention turns to South American crops and the U.S. spring planting situation. Problems in those areas could arise, sparking better prices. To take advantage of those possibilities, which might not arise, farmers will need winter storage and money to cover their cash flow needs while they’re carrying the crop. Beusekom said farmers who can look beyond lower per bushel prices and storage woes could end up with higher profits than last year, but it’s hard to see that now. The challenging environment “definitely takes the fun out of it,” said Beusekom. Seitz said farmers who didn’t get great yields are in a doubly distressing situation, with no mitigation for lower prices and a glutted delivery market. “You’re the guy or girl who didn’t get invited to the dance,” said Seitz.

Canadian spring wheat is flowing well out of Western Canada so far, but the giant crop will need good rail service and discount prices to be cleared from the Prairies this year, analysts say. “It’ll be the narrow spreads that help pull the spring wheats out of Western Canada,” said Chuck Penner of Left Field Commodity Research about the relative cheapness of spring wheat compared to hard red winter wheat. “Hard red winter is so expensive that the Brazilians are probably looking for other sources,” said Neil Townsend of the CWB about the possibility of Canadian spring wheat reaching that market in 2013-14. Canada has a large wheat crop to move, but offshore demand for North American wheat has been excellent in recent weeks, with U.S. winter wheat pouring off the West Coast to Chinese buyers. Early harvested Canadian spring wheat is also flowing well, catching some of that Chinese demand and finding interest from other buyers of quality spring wheat. So far this crop year, about 1.33 million tonnes of Canadian wheat has been exported, with 925,000 tonnes being No. 2 CWRS, according to Canadian Grain Commission statistics to Sept. 26. But Townsend and Penner said most spring wheat won’t make sales if it isn’t discount priced. “There’s just a lot of wheat out there,” said Townsend, noting only one of the world’s top seven wheat exporters has production challenges. “There is just no shortage of wheat among them.” Minneapolis spring wheat futures are in the rare situation of being slightly lower priced than Kansas City winter wheat, revealing the relative high price of hard red winter wheat. On Monday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported that overall U.S. wheat acreage this year was down eight percent from 2012, with 45.2 million harvested acres. But production is down only two percent for spring wheat, while winter wheat is down seven percent and durum down 26 percent. That tightness of hard red winter wheat is making some buyers consider spring wheat as an alternative, the analysts said. Hard red winter wheat suffered from the lingering effects of the 2012 U.S. drought. While demand for high protein CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

Hopes for price rally dashed | But soybean, corn ending stocks still smallest in years » CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE

WASHINGTON (Reuters) — U.S. corn and soybean stockpiles were far larger than expected on the Sept. 1 start of this marketing year and the bigger soybean stockpile will buffer a late start for the fall harvest. The United States Department of Agriculture also said this year’s wheat crop was one percent larger than traders expected, while wheat stocks on Sept. 1 were three percent smaller than analysts projected. Chicago corn and soybean futures slumped following the stocks report Sept. 30. December corn fell more than 2.5 percent, blasting to a new harvest-time low. November soybeans also tumbled more than 2.5 percent. Wheat fell less than one percent. USDA pegged corn stocks at 824 million bushels on Sept. 1, 21 percent more than the average trade estimate, and soybean stocks at 141 million bu., 14 percent larger than the trade expected. Despite the increases, stocks of soybeans were still the smallest in four years and corn stocks the smallest in 16 years. “Realistically, this adds to an already bearish situation and strengthens the argument for a move down to $4.20 or below,” Rich Nelson, an analyst at Allendale Inc., said of corn. The USDA estimates, based on surveys of growers and warehouses, were above the highest estimate of any trader in a survey ahead of the quarterly report. They were also bigger than USDA estimates made three weeks ago of 681 million bu. for corn and 125 million bu. of soybeans. Also in the report, USDA revised its estimate of the 2012 soybean crop to 3.034 billion bu., up 18.6 million bu., or less than one percent. The change was based on an analysis of data from several sources, USDA said. “It certainly takes away a serious

spring wheat is good and that is reflected in the futures, much of the prairie crop falls short of those specifications and needs to be discounted to find buyers. The price drop could be steep if the bulk food wheat or feed market must be tapped. “A lot of Canadian wheat is probably just going to be in that generic wheat category,” said Townsend. Prices for lower grades of wheat and for feed wheat are likely to drop when the U.S. corn crop begins flooding the elevator system, Townsend said. “I think people are underestimating the harvest pressure we’re going to see there.” Aside from price issues, wheat will still have trouble getting off the Prairies because of capacity constraints. “It’s going to be impossible to move all of the wheat, canola and whatever else we have in Western Canada to the level we’d like to see because the logistics won’t handle it,” said Townsend. “People are saying good, positive things about the railroads right now. They’re stepping it up by putting on a lot of cars and trying to move the grain, but there’s a lot to move.” Townsend said the recent heavy movement of U.S. winter wheat and a rally in spring wheat futures isn’t likely to be a sign of the shape of the sales season to come. The recent action is the result of possibly temporarily increased Chinese buying, low production of high protein wheat and the lack of corn in the market. Once corn is harvested, feedgrain prices will fall. With all the northern hemisphere wheat exporters wellstocked, it could be a winter of intense pressure to both price and move wheat.

smaller than average. USDA surveyed 66,000 growers as part of its research for making estimates for wheat and other small grain crops and for Sept. 1 grain stocks. For the stocks report, it also surveyed all commercial warehouses.

WORLD OUTLOOK | SEEDING FORECAST

Soggy soils in Black Sea area could foil seeding forecast MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

trong wheat prices have the International Grains Council forecasting a jump in global winter wheat acreage this year. But wet conditions in Ukraine and the former Soviet Union region might reduce that expected increase. The IGC sees winter wheat area increasing by about 12 million acres to about 557 million, the largest plantings in 17 years. The IGC didn’t have a production outlook.

With much improved soil moisture the U.S. Central Plains will account for some of that acreage increase, but the Black Sea exporters are also expected to boost area. However, last week the president of the Ukrainian Agrarian Confederation made a shocking statement to reporters that because of drenching fall rain, perhaps only 7.4 million acres of winter grains would be sown, down from an expected 19.76 million. Of that, about 6.2 million would be winter wheat, down from an expected 17.3 million. Reuters reported that Leonid Kozachenko said fields were too wet to seed and that the optimum time for seeding was past. The government reported that so far about five million acres had been seeded, down from more than 11 million at the same time last year.

Ukraine is finishing up the harvest of a big wheat crop this year, about 22 million tonnes, up from the previous year’s disappointing 15.8 million. Russia is expected to harvest between 50 and 54 million tonnes of wheat, up from 37.7 million last year. But this fall, only 45 percent of Russia’s planned winter grain area has been seeded so far and progress is the slowest in 13 years. The ideal sowing date is also passing in many parts of Russia. SovEcon believes that the government’s forecast of 40.5 million acres of winter grains will prove to be too optimistic as some regions will not be able to make up for lost time, Reuters reported. If farmers in Ukraine and Russia are like producers here they will likely push on with seeding if the weather allows, so the final acreage is still an open question, but it appears that at least half the crop will be seeded in

less than ideal conditions and that could lead to a lot of winter kill. This development does not appear to have gained a lot of traction in wheat markets yet. They are mostly focused on the rapid pace of U.S. wheat exports early this shipping season, as China and Brazil are buying heavily. Also, frosts last week hit Argentina’s wheat crop, although later reports say the damage was not severe. These issues caused wheat nearby futures prices to rise last week while corn and soybeans were under pressure from the U.S. harvest. But if the weather continues to impede seeding in the Black Sea region then that will provide major support to 2014-15 wheat futures. Follow D’Arce McMillan on Twitter @darcemcmillan.

U.S. HOG REPORT | HERD EXPANSION

U.S. CORN | SUPPLY AND DEMAND

USDA hog report shocks analysts

U.S. reaps plenty of corn but demand also rising

Numbers puzzling | More hogs heading to slaughter, few sows added to replenish herd numbers BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Was it all a dream, a phantasm of profitability, to be replaced by another nightmare of losses? That’s what some hog farmers are probably wondering after seeing the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Sept. 27 quarterly Hogs and Pigs report. But analysts say that while the report bodes ill for the always-scary fourth quarter hog market, when seasonal oversupply can crash prices, it suggests farmers will make more money over the longer term. “It looks like plans for herd expansion are very modest,” said Ron Plain of the University of Missouri. “If we can keep the numbers down, that should keep prices strong.” But the next few weeks are likely to see lower prices for fall slaughter and a lot of reassessment of the status of the U.S. hog herd. The hogs and pigs report defied most analyst expectations on many issues. • Instead of finding fewer hogs approaching slaughter weight on U.S. farms, USDA found more. • Instead of finding fewer small feeder hogs, USDA found more. • Instead of fewer or equal numbers of pigs being born in June, July and August, USDA found a two percent increase. • Instead of finding U.S. farmers boosting sow numbers to reap the benefits of strong prices, USDA found farmers only marginally added to herds. Steve Meyer of Paragon Econom-

ics agreed with Plain about the positive outlook for hog prices in 2014 if USDA is right about the sow herd barely expanding. “At this point, the farrowing numbers and implied pig crop is supportive of current valuations of hog prices for next summer,” wrote Meyer in his Daily Livestock Report for CME Group shortly after the report was released. But nearby futures prices are likely to be hit by USDA’s belief that the September dearth of market hogs going to slaughter will be reversed to an excess. “This level of hog slaughter coupled with 1.5 percent to two percent heavier weights would dramatically contradict the price premiums built in the December futures contract.” Tyler Fulton of Hams Marketing said the next few weeks could be ugly for slaughter prices. “If the USDA is right, we can expect a serious run-up in hog supplies,” said Fulton, who called the report a “shocker.” In September, hog prices did what they almost never do: rallied sharply into the fall, rising above the usual summer highs. That surge was based on low numbers of hogs being shipped to packers. That low number fit well with analysts’ views that the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus was wreaking destruction on the U.S. herd. But USDA’s expectation of large market hog numbers for the coming months suggests the September decline was due solely to hot weather in August that slowed

weight gain and only delayed the hog flow. Now the pigs will flow again and prices and hog farmers’ profitability will likely slump. “If this flushes out the way it is now expected, I don’t think you can expect any profitability (in the next three months),” said Fulton. “A lot of guys were probably getting lulled into a fairly optimistic view of what the fourth quarter would bring this year.” Analysts are virtually unanimous in expressing confusion over where, if anywhere, the pig and productivity losses due to PEDv are appearing in the U.S. herd. There should be fewer feeder pigs on U.S. farms now than a year ago if

PEDv is killing piglets, but U.S. herd growth is continuing with no interruption. “It reveals no impact over PED, or if there is an impact then it’s evidence that hog producers in the U.S. were attempting to expand by a margin of five or six percent, which we haven’t seen for 10 years,” said Fulton. Early Sept. 30, hog futures were down, but not disastrously so. Fulton said analysts are so puzzled by the Hogs and Pigs report that t h e y ’ l l p ro b a b l y n e e d t o s e e increased slaughter flow before they accept the report is on the money. “It’s a head-scratcher,” said Fulton. “It just doesn’t jive with where the market was on this.”

SASKATOON — Livestock producers could find relief from feed costs if the United States corn harvest meets expectations of a bumper crop. However, the demands on that crop for biofuel, exports and food will continue, said Joel Newman, president and chief executive officer of the American Feed Industry Association. To meet the U.S. federal renewable fuels standard, ethanol production takes 45 percent of all corn produced in the U.S. Earlier projections about more cellulosic-based ethanol have not materialized so demand for corn remains. “They have a mandate to pull that corn out and they have the first shot at it,” he said at the western nutrition conference in Saskatoon Sept. 24-26. “That means we have highly inelastic ethanol demand so we don’t have much control over that and it is left to the rest of the users of this crop to determine how we are going to adjust to that,” he said. This has caused a close correlation between corn and crude oil prices but corn markets are falling because of a good crop and crude oil prices are dropping as well. It remains unknown whether the U.S. government will change the renewable fuel standard mandate. If a higher ethanol content blend becomes required, corn demand will likely rise and prices will climb again. “It has been positive for grain producers, no doubt about it. It has helped the agriculture community on that side, but for livestock and poultry producers it has become a very difficult scenario to deal with,” he said. Increased global production of corn and soybeans tempered prices, which could have been even higher than they are now. In this decade, South America has produced 62 percent more corn while U.S. production of corn is up by 19 percent. As well, China’s role in the market remains a mystery. Its livestock production is increasing more quickly than its ability to grow more grain causing it to increase imports. China is expected to import 9.95 million tonnes of corn this year, up from 5.75 million in 2012-13, said the USDA. The good news for the U.S. is the astronomical increases in corn yields on a limited land. If this year’s harvest comes in as predicted the pressure on the livestock sector could come off. “If we continue to maintain this trend and continue to increase these yields, you will see we will work our way out of this scenario with the renewable fuel standard and it will release the pressure that has put on us,” Newman said. The U.S. livestock industry and oil companies would like to see the fuelmandate eliminated. But Newman doubts the federal government is ready to make such a significant change.

Wheat protein levels down

HOG PRICES STRONG

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Mean protein levels in Western Canada’s 2013 spring wheat crop could be as much as a percentage point below last year’s crop. Spring wheat samples submitted to the Canadian Grain Commission’s Harvest Sample Program show preliminary protein levels in No. 1 CWRS wheat ranging from 12.4 percent in northern Alberta to 13.2 percent in southwestern Manitoba. Last year, mean protein for No. 1 CWRS ranged from a low of 13.1 in northern Manitoba to a high of 14.2 percent in southwestern Manitoba. Values released last week for the 2013 crop are based on a small number of samples and are expected to change. Each year, the CGC releases wheat quality data in three phases. The first assesses protein content by grade for 10 regions across the West. As of Sept. 24, sufficient data was available for four of 10 regions. Preliminary values were listed as follows:

U.S. hog prices remained exceptionally strong for the season, but were down a little from the previous week. The number of market ready hogs is tight for several reasons, including the heat in early September in the Midwest, the effects of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus and the reduced use of the feed additive Paylean. The weather was cooler last week, which should help to spark faster weight gain. Iowa-southern Minnesota hogs delivered to packing plants fell to $70 US per cwt. Sept. 27 from about $72 Sept 20. Estimated pork cut-out value was $102.06 on Sept. 27, up from $100.26 on Sept. 20. Estimated weekly U.S. slaughter to Sept. 28 was 2.19 million, up from 2.18 the previous week but down from 2.34 million last year.

On average, steers 500 pounds and heavier traded $8.90 higher than last year at the same time and heifers were $6.05 higher. Even though prices are holding above last year, the steer-heifer price spread is widening. Harvest pressure is weakening barley bids. With feed grain cost falling, heifers would normally be more competitive with their steer counterparts. This has not been the case as overall feed efficiency is weighing on heifer demand. Steer and heifer calves for October delivery from the same farm operation saw heifers priced at a $25-$30 per cwt. discount to their similar weight brothers in electronic sales. With the nearby October futures contract trading at nearly a $5 premium over the expiring September contract, cash-to-futures basis are expected to weaken. With the exception of Ontario, weekly auction volumes are above year-ago levels. Weekly feeder exports to Sept. 14 rose 88 percent to 8,933.

Weekly exports to Sept. 14 fell 18 percent to 5,650. Cattle marketings normally rise in October, potentially pressuring prices lower. Feedlot supplies, however, remain current and some October inventory has been pulled forward, potentially lessening the price weakness.

FOOD RECALLS | PUBLIC RESPONSE

CRAIG’S VIEW

Public response to recalls depends on who, how, what

ne person died in Canada’s most recent food recall, that involving E. coli O157:H7 contamination of Gort’s Gouda Cheese based in Salmon Arm, B.C. Another 22 people in five provinces were made ill but have recovered or are in the process of doing so. And despite the tragic loss of a life, the matter quickly faded from the public eye. Contrast this with the E. coli contamination of beef at XL Foods in Brooks, Alta., last year, in which 18 people were made ill and recovered, no one died and the matter remained in the news for months. It raises the question: does the public, and by extension the media, treat big agriculture differently from small agriculture in terms of attitude? Sure it does. That’s a no brainer, you may say to yourself. But is it reasonable that this is so? This most recent recall shows small operations are not necessarily safer than large ones. We, the public, expect that they are. We hope they are. And in fact, the few reported incidents of illness attributed to lax food safety in small operations — and in large ones — show our expectations are generally realized. Still, small food production can also mean limited resources, inconsistently applied regulations or untested ways of ensuring food safety. Gort’s operation was inspected by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. XL was also CFIA inspected, even though subsequent investigations suggested all was not sound in that process. Of course the glaring difference between the two cases is scope. XL was a massive operation that distributed product nationally and internationally, which had potential to be consumed by hundreds of thousands of people. Eighteen of them got sick. Gort’s is a small artisanal cheese maker, with distribution aided by internet sales but limited potential to reach thousands of Canadians. Yet it killed somebody. The cheese case is unlikely to affect gen-

eral cheese consumption. But the XL recall reduced consumer confidence in beef in the short term and quite possibly in the long term for some. We will never know how much of this unease was solidified by the corporation’s lack of public response. XL’s owners gave a cursory apology, began a voluntary recall of products and disappeared from view, leaving the CFIA to ham-handedly address the fallout. XL perpetuated the stereotype of the faceless corporation that had little regard for public safety. In contrast, Gort’s owners provided inperson tearful apologies, a sinceresounding mea culpa on the company website and voluntarily recalled all raw milk cheese products. The operation had a face, and that face was concerned and apologetic. The lesson in that is obvious. Another angle to this comparison relates to product: cheese versus meat. Cows giving milk versus cows giving their lives. White milk versus red blood. Perhaps public reaction to meat production and recall is more visceral, and that primitive response manifests itself in more intense scrutiny. But is death from E. coli carried in cheese or on spinach any less tragic than death from eating contaminated meat? Clearly it is not, but public response to meat recalls seems disproportionate to those involving leafy greens and dewy cheeses. As technology improves, discovery of food contamination on both a small and large scale is becoming quicker and easier. It is also quicker and easier to inform the public, which can make it seem as though contamination is rife. But food is safer than it has ever been and we can be grateful for that. We can also more closely examine the facts of each recall and more carefully consider our own responses to them.

FOOD WASTE | LABELLING

Food waste in the billions; poor storage, label misunderstanding big factors NATIONAL VIEW

BARRY WILSON

United Nations estimates global food waste at 1.3 billion tonnes

ho among us has not had eyes bigger than our stomachs, ordering more food than we can eat or in the age of supersizing, getting more than we wanted? How many of us have left food on

our plates or bought vegetables that didn’t get used and ended up in the trash or the recycle bin? In a rich country where obesity rates are rising, how much food do we actually waste? In a recent Conference Board of Canada report, the estimate of the value of food wasted in Canada each year is $28 billion. In many cases, it is because consumers assume the “best before date” is a safety warning rather than a nutritional warning. “The top reason for consumer food waste, not eating food before the ‘best before’ or ‘use by’ dates, could be addressed by helping consumers understand that ‘best before’ dates do not indicate the safety of the product but refer primarily to how long a food product is able to retain its

freshness, taste or nutritional value,” said the report. “It is clear that food waste is a worsening problem that is not being adequately addressed.” But in fact, there is much food waste not connected to ‘best before’ dates. In a land of plenty and surplus food production, it is an issue easily swept under the kitchen table. In a rich country where obesity more often is a health problem than lack of food and yet hundreds of thousands are designated as underfed, waste of food is an obscenity. In many major Canadian cities, volunteers organize themselves to take hundreds of tonnes of waste food from restaurants and farmers’ markets to deliver to food banks and the hungry. But Canada, sad as the story is, can-

not really be considered a microcosm of the world. Outside our borders, where hunger and starvation really are much more of a reality, the situation is much worse. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization recently estimated food wastage around the world at 1.3 billion tonnes. Yes, billion. It estimated that the cost is $750 billion in the food system and the wasted food creates 3.3 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases each year in their production, transportation and often decomposition. The numbers are staggering and these are just not people in rich western countries with eyes bigger than their stomachs sending uneaten food back to the kitchen. In many developing countries, it is

harvest that blows off the back of unenclosed trucks as they drive from farm to delivery point. In Kenya a few years ago, farmer black humour had it that the best crops grow in the ditches. It is black humour indeed. The seed development and biotechnology industries always race to find new seeds, new GM products, new processes that will increase production and feed a world of nine billion people. Science is the answer for feeding the world. But really, if the world spent as much time and money figuring out how to make use of and preserve the protein humans create now instead of how to create more protein through super-plants, wouldn’t that be a better use of available resources? I’m just asking.

& OPEN FORUM MODERN FARMING | FOOD PRODUCTION

SOCIAL MEDIA | RULES

Good old days were not always so good

Professionalism still applies to social media

BY CAM DAHL

ocal. Organic. Hormone free. Gluten free. No pesticides. Nothing artificial. These are the buzzwords in food marketing today. Who can object to all of these wholesome sounding concepts? Food companies are trying to take us back to a time that many consumers imagine as idyllic, pure and healthy. The fact this is an effective marketing strategy is proven by how many companies are using it. These are not ad campaigns from little stores, but strategic marketing efforts by our largest grocery stores and restaurant chains. Two things strike me about these trends. First off, the “good old days” were not nearly as good as today’s advertising makes them out to be. Some seem to want to push producers and farmers back to the rural lifestyle and production practices of the 1940s and 1950s, such as houses with no running water, wood heat, a standard of living below poverty and so on. The second thing that strikes me is the portrayal of modern commercial agriculture as being bad for our health and bad for the environment. This view is both wrong and dangerous. I have heard it said that trends like this are the indulgences of a rich society. This statement has a ring of truth as not only will this misinformation about agricultural practices hurt farmers and ranchers, but unchecked, it will have a large impact on those who can least afford to spend more on food. Let us look at some of the claims

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

JOANNE PAULSON, EDITOR

Food production has been romanticized and modern agriculture portrayed as environmentally unfriendly but new practices have reduced many issues of the 1930s, says the author. | MANITOBA AGRICULTURAL MUSEUM PHOTO made by the latest foodie trends, like the notion that food in great-grandma’s time was somehow safer. Canada has a strong science-based food safety system. Year after year, statistics from the Public Health Agency of Canada show that modern agriculture is delivering food that is safer than the year before. What about the claims that agriculture from years gone by had less impact on the environment? Did you know that the drought faced by Western Canada in the 1990s and 2000s was in fact worse than the droughts of the Dirty 30s? Yet Manitoba soil did not blow into Ontario because modern production practices, like the use of pesticides and biotechnology, have allowed agriculture to manage the soil and moisture levels better. Modern grazing practices are an integral part of grassland ecosystems and help us meet everyone’s conservation objectives. Economically via-

ble beef production also provides society with many environmental services such as preserving wetlands. Beef production creates jobs as well as delivers important environmental goods and services for all Manitobans. Opposition to antibiotics in livestock production is another advertising trend. But how can anyone consider it humane not to treat a sick animal? Failure to treat illness is simply not a good management practice and it is not the right way to care for livestock. So how should agriculture respond to this growing romanticized trend toward consumers seeking food produced like it was 1930? We could just complain about misguided city folk. But that won’t change the way our customers are selling the food we produce. Instead, agriculture needs to get out front and guide these trends. This is one of the purposes of the recently revised Code of Practice for

the Care and Handling of Beef Cattle. The new code is practical and science-based. Beef producers have had the opportunity for input into the development of the new code. Animal welfare representatives, enforcement agencies and other representatives from civil society were also directly involved in developing the new code. The wide representation will help ensure that our efforts to promote the highest standards of animal care are supported and understood by Canadians. Ma n y c o n s u m e r s a re a s k i n g “Where does my food come from?” We as producers need to be ready to answer this question. Failure to do so will mean others will answer it for us and history has shown that it is never good to have others tell our story. Cam Dahl is general manager of the Manitoba Beef Producers.

SPECIALTY CANOLA | “SPECIAL” BASIS PRICE

Canola contract has fine print in invisible ink HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

ometimes the fine print doesn’t cover it. Producers have lots of stories about how grain buyers don’t live up to contract obligations. This often has to do with not taking delivery within the specified timeframe. Buyers, in turn, can tell stories about certain producers that reneged on contracts. The standard advice is to read contracts thoroughly and to get advice on any parts you don’t understand. While some contracts are a page or two and straightforward, others go on and on with legalese that’s so thick you need a lawyer if you really want to interpret it all.

Here’s a personal case where getting legal advice probably wouldn’t have helped. I signed a contract well before seeding to grow a specialty oil canola. A number of grain companies contract this canola, each with its own provisions. In this case, there was a $45 a tonne premium, plus a $15 a tonne premium because the variety is considered non-GMO. With the production going directly to the crushing plant, the price was FOB the farm, which is another perk. And I could lock in the basis (the company’s deduction from the futures price) on 30 bushels per acre without any production risk. I had to buy the seed from the grain company. All the production was to be delivered to the company. The canola had to meet purity specifications. All pretty standard stuff. As harvest approached, I gave my contact at the company a call. “I’m wondering if now might be a good time to lock in a basis on that contracted specialty canola. What’s your basis at?”

“We’re at $39 under,” was the reply. “You’re $39 a tonne under the November?” I asked incredulously. “That’s about $20 higher than what I understand the basis to be.” “Oh, our basis on regular canola is $19, but there is a different basis on this specialty canola. You have to remember that the price is FOB the farm.” I was flabbergasted. This wasn’t how the deal was explained to me and nowhere in the contract did it talk about the company’s ability to set a “special” basis. “If I’d known you could just arbitrarily set the basis to recapture a bunch of the premium, I’d have never grown this canola,” I complained. My contact at the company took my complaints to his superiors, but to no avail. He understood my position and he sympathized. Further up the chain of command, there wasn’t any sympathy. Of course the loss of $15 or $20 a tonne has to be put into perspective. The futures price can move that much in a day. But the principle

really irks me. On a small production of just 200 tonnes, even if a person was litigious, it wouldn’t make sense to call a lawyer. Imagine the legal fees. Imagine trying to explain basis and futures to a judge. “We’ve changed the contract for 2014, so everything will be clearer,” I was assured. No matter. I won’t be interested. In fairness, the canola has all been delivered. It met the specs and the cheque has been issued. But I’m left pondering how this “misunderstanding” could have been avoided. Studying the contract more thoroughly wouldn’t have helped. I doubt that a lawyer viewing the contract would have asked the right questions either. I’ve had generally good experiences contracting various crops with various companies through the years. I’ll be more wary in the future.

f you’re into following celebrities on social media, you may have noticed Martha Stewart’s little public tirade last week on Twitter. It seems Martha smashed her iPad and gave Apple a good tongue-lashing, in front of her three million-ish followers, for not having picked it up for repair. This was one day after the wreck occurred. Next time something goes wrong in my house, or with my work equipment, I’m going to tweet about it. For example, we had a water heater problem recently. I called our HVAC guys, and they showed up within the hour, bless them. If I had tweeted about it, would they have shown up in five minutes? Ha! More likely, they would have shown up in five years, and who could blame them? I noticed a news item on the Martha tweets because the use of social media was a big topic at our editorial staff conference last week. The finer points of how to use it, and just as importantly how not to, generated some interesting debate among the WP’s journalists. Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn offer journalists several new options for getting stories out quickly and gathering information and contacts. Social media is increasingly being used in rural Canada, so it gives us more opportunities to connect with you, our audience. This all seems fairly self-evident. Where things could get a bit murkier is when the personal mixes with the professional. For example, should a journalist publicly discuss his or her household problems? Political leanings? Crazy party habits? Should anyone? I don’t know if Martha can muddy her reputation any more than she already has, but for those of us who are increasingly wading into the online communication world, there’s still time to behave sanely. It’s important to take into consideration that people have widely differing comfort levels with exposing their personal lives. Some folk are very private; others, like our Ed White, are quite open about, for instance, family life. It’s really nice to attach some personality to the face and the name. Either way, the main thing is that we apply journalistic ethics and professionalism to social media, just as we do in print and on our website. I’m thinking that would be good advice for Martha, too.

Did not all farmers have a business called the Canadian Wheat Board? We paid personnel and paid expenses for the best service in every aspect of grain marketing in the world and we benefitted with all the profits. Then our present federal government saw fit to change the rules and take away the monopoly without a majority farmer vote. We were closer to a true dual marketing scenario when we had the monopoly than we are now. Now our government is going to privatize what’s left of the new and unimproved CWB. So, who do you think is

going to benefit now and pocket the profits? Not farmers. What will become of farmers’ assets once the new CWB is privatized? And, what about proroguing parliament? Does Mr. (Stephen) Harper need more personal time to get all his ducks in a row? What is the usefulness of the position of governor general when he/she only has the power to say, “yes prime minister”? Then there’s the Senate. Quite a bunch. Remember those ducks. How can people who consent to support Mr. Harper before they are appointed give any issue sober second thought? And Mr. Harper has appointed many senators after saying how much he was against doing so. It’s going to be pretty hard to get rid of the Senate

when they have to vote themselves out of existence. But then, would you if you had been set up financially for the rest of your life? And only have to be at work relatively few days a year? We have an election coming up in a couple of years. All the rearranging and new appointees to cabinet aren’t going to put a new face on anything because Mr. Harper is still in control. I hope you can be non-partisan and weigh in on the political issues, and who’s involved, that we have been hearing about over the last several years and give them “sober second thought” before voting day arrives.

MOULDBOARD PLOWING To the Editor: I think mouldboard fall plowing should be outlawed in Prince Edward Island effective immediately. Mouldboard plowing is the conventional tow behind plowing that leaves moulded furrows … burying all residue and leaving only bare soil exposed. There are types of conservation fall plowing that some farmers are doing that will be acceptable. P.E.I. is losing its topsoil that it cannot afford to lose. The rivers and bays are full of silt from soil erosion. The fisheries in the rivers and bays are being ruined. This must be stopped. We are having snowless winters and dust bowl soil erosion conditions because there is too much totally exposed topsoil. … It is time for the provincial government to take action. Ban fall mouldboard plowing. Ranald MacFarlane, Fernwood, P.E.I.

There are stories in newspapers about governments financing infrastructure using P3 (public-private partnerships) financing. There are people for and against P3 financing. Computers are a good source of information. I checked out which side to take in this debate. P3s are promoted for hospitals, transportation infrastructure and waste water systems. In dealing with hospitals, I read when using proper accounting procedures, P3 hospitals are likely to be 10 percent more costly than those that are publicly financed, owned and operated. Also, it seems P3 financed hospitals can result in “a deterioration of hospital services, diminished accountability, an increase in two-tier care, and needless cost”. In studying P3 proposals for transportation infrastructure, one can refer back to the importance of proper accounting. In reading the examples of how numbers are put together, one gets the idea those promoting P3 proposals “cook the books,” to use that expression. Most analysts do not try to explain why promoters enhance P3 financing reports. When reading what can happen with P3 waste water systems, I become concerned. As an example, it is noted that accounting firms do not seriously examine P3 proposals, so what chance does a council have to make informed decisions? At a local level, in senior living, I read the federal government will give Regina $58.5 million to go forward with the P3 proposal. There is a study saying it could cost the city $61 million more by using P3 financing. That means it can cost the city more than the subsidy it receives. This tells me the federal government is willing to waste $58.5 million because it is ideologically in favour of P3 development. I do not live in Regina so have no problem if Regina residents vote for the P3 plan and thus pay more taxes to finance the project. As a Canadian taxpayer, though, I do mind when the federal government squanders my tax dollars.

HEALTH | RAW MILK CHEESE

Consuming soft, raw milk cheese poses risk: experts BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Since an outbreak of E. coli connected to contaminated raw milk cheese from British Columbia last month, several media outlets and blogs have indicated it was an isolated incident. The Canadian Consumer Raw Milk Advocacy Group noted on its website that illnesses related to raw milk cheese are rare and there’s no need to label raw milk cheese as dangerous. That claim contradicts Health Canada findings. In a joint report released earlier this year, Health Canada and the United

States Food and Drug Administration concluded the risk of food poisoning from raw milk cheese is substantially higher than pasteurized cheese. In a summary of the report, FDA/ Health Canada Quantitative Assessment of the Risk of Listeriosis from Soft-Ripened Cheese Consumption in the United States and Canada, scientists at the two agencies found the risk of contracting listeriosis from soft-ripened, raw milk cheese is 50 to 160 times higher than consuming pasteurized soft-ripened cheese, such as camembert. As of Sept. 24, the Public Health Agency of Canada noted there have

been 22 cases of E. coli illnesses in the country, including one death, from contaminated cheese products from Gort’s Gouda Cheese Farm in Salmon Arm, B.C. Ten of those cases are from B.C., nine in Alberta and one each from Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Quebec. The FDA-Health Canada report found that pregnant women in Canada are 52 times more likely to develop listeriosis from unpasteurized cheese compared to pasteurized cheese. In the U.S., pregnant women are 96 times more likely to contract listeriosis, which can cause vomiting, diarrhea, blood poisoning and death.

In the U.S. general population, scientists estimated it would take 8.6 billion ser vings of pasteurized cheese for someone to get sick from cheese contaminated with Listeria Monocytogenes. In comparison, one in every 55 million servings of raw milk cheese contains enough contaminants to cause a case of listeriosis. For elderly people the report said one in 2.6 million servings of raw milk cheese would cause a case of listeriosis. For pasteurized cheese, it would take 138 million servings to cause one case of listeriosis. In percentages, FDA and Health Canada estimate that 3.2 to 4.7 per-

cent of servings of raw milk, soft ripened cheese are contaminated. On its website Health Canada states that eating raw milk cheese is generally safe, but it can cause serious health effects for children, the elderly, pregnant women and people with a compromised immune system. “(These groups) should avoid eating cheese made from raw or unpasteurized milk, especially soft and semi-soft varieties (like Brie, Camembert, and blue-veined cheeses). Eat pasteurized milk cheeses instead.” SEE HOW THE NEWS MEDIA HANDLED TWO DIFFERENT FOOD SAFETY ISSUES, PAGE 75

HARDSHIPS | REACHING OUT

Where is God? SPIRITUAL VIGNETTES

JOYCE SASSE

fter hearing about one disaster after another, many begin to ask “Where is God when all this is happening?” It is the same for those facing problems with health, with finance, with relationships, with depression. A quick way out is to place blame on the shoulders of another and bask in our tears. But such an approach to life is stagnating and diminishes how we see ourselves. God never promised that life would be easy or perfect. But God repeatedly showed us we would never have to face life’s difficulties on our own. Through the stories found in Scripture, through the testimony of Jesus’s life, and through the affirmations of so many faith-filled persons, we are shown ongoing examples of God’s presence in our lives. When we face rough times, we are encouraged to talk about our fears and feelings with others and with God. The image is of parents encouraging their bewildered child to talk about what is on their heart. Loving arms are extended, the weight of the burden is shared. In the midst of the lament, new understandings and pathways open. Hope and trust help us move forward. Love is bigger than the hardships. Recovery starts to happen when we realize we don’t have to face life on our own. We are embraced by those who understand and who support us physically and spiritually. We are encouraged to move forward with renewed zest, with gratitude. Through life we move along a road marred with many hazards. But in this season of Thanksgiving we have opportunity to express our gratitude for all our life-giving gifts. Our response is to reach out to help others live more fruitfully, through this life and into the next. “The Spirit in me greets the Spirit in you. Alleluia.”

MEAT | COUNTRY-OF-ORIGIN LABELLING

POLITICS | ELECTIONS

Coalition of livestock groups launch COOL court appeal

Hayward pursues rural seat

U.S. trade policy draws ire and discussion from North American officials at events across continent

Manitoba byelection | Former bureaucrat running in Tory stronghold BY BARRY WILSON

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

American and Canadian livestock groups launched an appeal Sept. 24 against a Sept. 11 U.S. District Court decision that failed to block implementation of country-of-origin labelling. Nine groups, which include the Canadian Pork Council, Canadian Cattlemen’s Association and their powerful counterpart organizations in the U.S., argue that the court incorrectly accepted various arguments it heard from the Agricultural Marketing Service in the case heard in early September. The American Meat Council, one of the nine members of a coalition involved in the appeal, said COOL violates the U.S. constitution “by compelling speech in the form of costly and detailed labels on meat p ro d u c t s t h a t d o n o t d i re c t l y advance a substantial government interest.” COOL was also a topic for discussion two weeks ago at the Council of State Governments national conference in Kansas City, Missouri. Alberta Agriculture minister Verlyn Olson, who attended the conference, said S ept. 26 that the

council took a strong stance against mandatory COOL legislation. “The Council of State Governments overwhelmingly passed a resolution that acknowledges the negative economic impact and calls on Congress to find a fair solution to the issue,” Olson said in a conference call. He said it was the fifth resolution of its kind within the last four months that was passed by U.S. government officials at various levels asking for changes to COOL. The matter was also discussed at the recent Tri-National Agricultural Accord meeting in Saskatoon, said Olson. Mexican officials have strong views similar to those of Canada about the U.S. legislation. However, Americans at that meeting were circumspect. “We’re also somewhat disappointed that our colleagues, the U.S. legislators who were at the Saskatoon conference, felt as though they could not commit to a strong statement calling for changes to COOL although they did commit to continuing with discussion to try to find a solution,” said Olson. “We would have liked to have seen a stronger stance taken by them.”

OTTAWA BUREAU

After more than three decades as an apolitical federal agricultural and trade bureaucrat, southern Manitoba resident Terry Hayward decided half a decade ago to jump into the political arena. In 2011, he ran in the riding of Provencher as the Liberal candidate and won just seven percent of the vote. This year, with five-time incumbent Vic Toews retired and a byelection pending, Hayward is at it again, challenging Conservative candidate Ted Falk, longtime president of the Steinbach Credit Union. In 2011, Toews won the riding with more than 70 percent of the vote. Prime minister Stephen Harper has not yet announced a byelection date. Ha y w a r d s a y s t h e l e a p f r o m bureaucracy to politics “wasn’t really a big jump” once he retired from the federal government in 2006. “I loved my job as an apolitical civil servant, but I just wasn’t happy with the way Canada was going by 2008, when there was a totally unnecessary election and too much secrecy,” he said.

bureaucrat, serving as legislative assistant to both Liberal minister Eugene Whelan and Progressive Conservative minister John Wise, deputy departmental secretary and regional departmental director in Alberta. For six years at the end of his career, he was the executive director of the National Farm Products Council of Canada. After retirement, he served for 18 months as executive director of the Manitoba Rural Adaptation Council. During his years in government, Hayward also acted as an attaché at the Canadian Embassy in Washington and the High Commission in New Zealand, often dealing with trade issues. “I really think my background in the public service will help,” Hayward said in an interview. “I have seen how policy is formed and works. I have dealt with the trade file. Those two issues are large in this rural riding.”

The Provencher riding, which stretches west from the southeast corner of Manitoba south of Winnipeg, holds the largest concentration of supply management agriculture in the province. “I think it is important for people not in agriculture to understand how beneficial supply management is in this riding and throughout the country,” he said. “I will be raising the issue that trade negotiations now being held behind closed doors could affect supply management and farmers have a right to know what is being discussed.” Hayward said he also will alert farmers in the riding about the danger of business risk management safety net cuts that took effect this year but will not be obvious to most farmers until commodity prices and incomes fall in future years. “I think farmers will be shocked and I plan to warn them about it,” he said. Although the Provencher riding has been solidly Conservative since 2000, it has voted Liberal in the past. David Iftody held the seat from 1993 to 2000 as the last Prairie rural seat held by the party. “I totally believe this riding is winnable,” said Hayward. “Many of the Progressive Conservatives here don’t recognize their party anymore.”

INNOVATION | MANURE MANAGEMENT

PAMI develops manure recipes to make energy Trials successful | Researchers show how various solid organic materials can produce heat or electricity from biogas BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Researchers in Saskatchewan are making energy out of a few tonnes of culled potatoes and manure. It’s the latest ‘recipe’ officials with the Prairie Agriculture Machinery Institute are testing inside the organization’s solid state anaerobic digester. At a pilot-scale facility at PAMI’s Termuende Research Ranch near Lanigan, Sask., Joy Agnew is documenting how various organic materials could be used to produce a biogas that could generate heat, electricity or be fed into a provincial grid in the future. Successful trials have been running since last year. Eventually, the project could provide the livestock industry with a new source of power and a better way to manage manure. “We’re becoming more socially aware of how much waste we’re putting on the Earth and what it’s doing to the Earth and we’re trying to extract as much value and nutrients out of it as possible,” said Agnew, project manager of agricultural research services at PAMI. Anaerobic digesters are already employed in Europe and parts of Canada, but PAMI’s is unique. Biodigesters more commonly require manure to be collected, diluted and liquified.

Joy Agnew of the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute is leading a project that uses manure mixed with other organic materials, including potatoes, to produce biogas that can generate heat or electricity. | KRISTEN MCEWEN PHOTOS PAMI’s works with the material in its solid state, which would allow it to be more easily employed in manure management systems in prairie feedlots, where cattle aren’t on cement floors. Agnew said a solid state system would be smaller, simpler and less costly. She said a full-scale system could cost $5 million to $10 million, still cheaper than others, allowing industry to see a return on investment in a fraction of the time. She said PAMI will be looking to scale the project up into a larger facility for proof of concept. “We have space to landfill and we have the space to land apply (manure), so we do, but if there are more strict

requirements on nutrient recycling and energy use and energy production and if there’s incentives for green energy production then this kind of technology does make economic sense,” said Agnew. “But that could be 20, 30, 40 years down the road.” She is researching ways to optimize the process with the right mix of feedstocks. Current tests are using 10 tonnes of material at a time, mostly manure from the neighbouring Pound-Maker Agventures feedlot along with other organic materials like straw or culled potatoes, loaded into an airtight container. As microorganisms break down the material — a process kick started

with an inoculum and before the whole thing is heated — researchers capture the emerging gas, a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide. Pilot scale results indicate manure from a 40,000 head feedlot could heat approximately 58 homes or power 180 homes. The material that remains inside can be composted and used as a fertilizer. “If you only put a dollar value on the gas itself, it’s not going to make economic sense,” said Agnew. “You have to put a value on that spent material, which we call digestate, as well, because that material is where all the fertilizer nutrients are in and can be used for land application for growing crops.”

That digestate, which resembles normal compost, is cheaper to transport, easier to spread and has a more uniform nutrient composition than solid manure. At Pound-Maker, a scaled-up solid state digester could make use of the facility’s manure, as well as material from the company’s on-site ethanol facility. The facility already composts to cut down on bulk, but this system would allow it to move more manure yearround, even in the winter. “We’re a long ways away from really being able to commercialize this, but I think the promise is so great that it’s worth the effort,”said Brad Wildeman, president of Pound-Maker.

KELOWNA PACIFIC RAILWAY | BANKRUPTCY AGREEMENT

RAILWAY | MAINTENANCE

Freight service planned for B.C. rail line

CP to close test centre in Calgary

KPR shortline in receivership | CN will serve Campbell Creek, Vernon, Lumby Junction and Lumby, B.C. BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canadian National Railway plans to launch a new freight service on 150 kilometres of track in central British Columbia. CN announced Sept 26 that it will offer service on track that was previously operated by bankrupt short-line company Kelowna Pacific Railway. KPR entered an agreement to lease the rail facilities from CN in 1999. A news release issued by CN said KPR entered receivership earlier this year and has since halted operations. Earlier this week, CN reached an agreement with KPR’s trustee to take it out of the bankruptcy process. CN has also reached agreements with the line’s main customer, Tolko Industries Ltd., and labour groups representing the line’s workers, which include 35 locomotive engineers, conductors and track maintenance workers. CN will resume service on 75 percent of the rail network previously operated by KPR. “I’m pleased to say that the parties were able to come together to assemble the right business and labour conditions to justify the resumption of rail traffic on the

major portion of the KPR as well as a sizable capital investment required to protect rail service in the region,” said Jim Vena, CN’s executive vicepresident and chief operating officer. “We are targeting the resumption of operations as soon as we can ensure the track is brought back to a standard to ensure safe train operations.” CN will offer service from Campbell Creek, B.C., 15 kilometres east of Kamloops, to Vernon, Lumby Junction and Lumby, B.C. It will discontinue 50 kilometres of track between Lumby Junction and Kelowna, B.C., because of insuffi-

cient freight traffic. The 60-day discontinuance process for the unused portion of track was scheduled to begin last week. Also last week, the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference, which represents 3,300 conductors, trainmen, yardmen and traffic co-ordinators, announced that CN is seeking conciliation in its negotiations with the union. In a Sept. 23 news release, Teamsters said there will be high employee turnover in the years ahead at CN as senior workers retire. The union wants assurances that CN will replace retired workers rather than increasing the workload of the remaining employees. The union said CN is seeking to have members work longer hours, perform more tasks when alone and have less rest time between trips, conditions that will affect the health and safety of CN employees. “Operating a train carrying 15,000 tonnes of hazardous material is no small task,” said union spokesperson Roland Hackle. “Our members have to be properly trained and be sufficiently rested to ensure the safety of people living close to rail tracks. “Many of our members are currently on duty for a 12-hour shift, go home for eight hours and then come

back for another 12 hours. It’s exhausting and unreasonable to continually expect that.” The collective agreement between CN and Teamsters expired in late July. CN spokesperson Mark Hallman told Reuters that CN does not comment on ongoing labor talks. None of CN’s proposals would compromise the health and safety of its workers in any way, he added. “Indeed, it is our opinion that CN’s proposals would positively affect the health and safety of our employees,” Hallman said. Meanwhile, internal memos obtained by Greenpeace under the Access to Information Act show that CN is considering shipping Alberta bitumen by rail to Prince Rupert, B.C. Internal memos posted on Greenpeace’s website suggest CN is working with Chinese-owned Nexen to ship unprocessed crude by rail to Prince Rupert, where it would be loaded onto tankers for export to Asia. An attached CN document says CN has ample capacity to run seven 100 car unit trains per day to Prince Rupert, each carrying 55,000 barrels of pure bitumen. The capacity is comparable to that of Enbridge’s proposed Northern Gateway pipeline project.

The company conducted locomotive repair and maintenance work at the yard Canadian Pacific Railway will close its Locomotive Reliability Centre at Alyth Yard in Calgary. The closure will result in the elimination of 130 local jobs, the company announced last month. CP’s decision is the result of a Canadian Transportation Agency order directing the railway to stop load testing and idling operations in proximity to the LRC between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., CP said in a Sept. 19 news release. The CTA directive poses productivity challenges for service and maintenance work of locomotives, the railway said. It also fails to recognize the 24-7 operational requirements and restricts the railway’s ability to provide service for customers in Calgary, throughout North America and those relying on coastal ports for offshore shipments. Locomotive repair and maintenance work previously conducted at the LRC will be moved to other maintenance facilities on the CP network. Alyth Yard will continue to serve as an important rail yard operation for CP, the company said.

BISON | REINTRODUCE SPECIES

Bison may roam once again in Banff National Park Native species missing | Visitors will see and learn about Plains bison BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Canadian bison producers are among those who support a proposal to see a wild, free-roaming herd of bison introduced in Banff National Park. Parks Canada released a draft plan earlier this month that proposes to introduce 30 to 50 Plains bison in less-travelled regions of the park. Public input into the plan is invited until Nov. 1. “Banff National Park is certainly well known throughout the world, so any type of experience that exposes people to bison is good for bison conservation and it’s good for the bison industry,” said Canadian Bison Association executive director Terry Kremeniuk. Bison producers were part of Parks Canada’s consultation, along with other stakeholders in the pilot project. Returning bison to an area that was once native range is also an advantage, said a plan proponent. “Bison are a native species to the Banff National Park area and they’ve been missing as a wild animal for about 150 years, but they were in the park for a long time in enclosures. It’s time to bring them back into the wild,” said Harvey Locke, a spokesperson for Bison Belong, which is promoting the plan. The enclosed bison paddock was removed in 1997 because of Banff town site development and concerns over wildlife movement, said Locke. Public response to the idea has been positive, he added. The main concerns voiced so far include public safety and keeping the animals within the park. Locke said he thinks the safety concern stems from the novelty of bison in Banff. Six other national parks in the western region also have bison and public safety has not been an issue, although they must be treated with the same caution as other wild animals. “Parks Canada knows as much about managing bison as anybody in the world. They’ve been at it for their whole existence,” he said. As for containment, the park is vast and mountains form natural boundaries. Forest provides a large buffer zone from the nearest ranches. Young females who calve in an area tend to bond to that area, limiting their instinct to roam. No continuous fencing is proposed, but some fences will be necessary, of the type that allows other livestock to go over or under. Grass in the park’s backcountry is considered ample, according to the draft report. A disease-free herd from Elk Island National Park will furnish the initial herd at Banff. The draft plan, which involves a five-year pilot project, notes that bison lived in the park area historically and are thus part of its natural ecosystem. Herd grazing maintained the meadows and grasslands needed by other animals, birds and plant species.

“Successfully restoring this keystone species in the modern world will foster new and enrich existing opportunities for visitors, neighbours and the public at large to learn about and join Parks Canada in the reintroduction journey,” said the plan. It also notes the role bison played in First Nations culture. “Restoring bison to the landscape is an opportunity to restore cultural

connections that have been lost for more than a century.” Locke said he thinks the decision has been made to proceed with the pilot project, after revisions are made based on public consultation and a budget is established. Bill Hunt, Parks Canada’s manager of resource conservation, was not available for comment by deadline on this story.

RAILWAY ADVENTURE | A WHODUNNIT

Murder, mystery, mayhem and history Alberta Prairie Railway excursion | Don Donato Baby Face Brundizzi, Waldo and Crusher among murder suspects BY SHELLEY A. LEEDAHL FREELANCE WRITER

STETTLER, Alta. — The undulating landscape is still more green than gold as we approach Stettler in September. We can’t see what’s beyond the neighbouring hills, which is an apt metaphor because we’re about to embark on an Alberta Prairie Railway Murder Mystery Excursion. Part interactive theatre, part steam locomotive journey, part small town community enterprise, over the next six hours and 68 kilometres, I, my partner and 225 other passengers are in for a unique autumn ride with great blasts of steam, a good oldfashioned fall supper and gun shots. Locomotive No. 41 leaves Stettler at 2:30 p.m. for Big Valley, an old time Western town within a town. Gail Knudson, Big Valley mayor and one of the Alberta Prairie team, has brought a few late arrivals to the rail crossing near Urban Cottage, a rural bed and breakfast. “It still gives me goose bumps. It’s a wonderful thing to have in rural Alberta. I mean, how many other places have this?” Knudson says as the steam whistle sounds. The Mafia Murders mystery is already in progress when we board, but with a total of nine cars on the w at e r- g u z z l i n g l o c o m o t i v e — around 400 litres for every kilometre travelled — the professional actors in the Prohibition-era drama repeat each light-hearted sketch from car to car, and we miss nothing. W h i t e -s u i t e d g o d f at h e r D o n Donato Baby Face Brundizzi and his cohorts, including Waldo, The Sneak, Crusher, the bodyguard and Rita The Rose Scallopini cavort among us, threatening murder, swearing loyalty and wisecracking. Ad-libbing and addressing passengers are all part of the fun as we slowly approach Big Valley, where we’ll continue to suspend our disbelief and board the yacht, Prohibition, enjoy a roast beef buffet at the Big Valley Community Hall and have time to tour the historic community, a booming rail centre in 1913. Between deliberately over-the-top theatrical scenes, we enjoy refreshments and aim cameras at whitetailed deer and pump jacks, soaring hawks and historical sites like the Fenn General Store and the last of the coal mines. We disembark in scenic Big Valley and gather in the massive hall. Mafia mayhem and forks unfurl. “I’m a steam freak,” says traveller Neill Thompson of St. Albert, Alta. “This [theatrical performance] is just addition.” A few folks have embraced the 1929 theme and dressed in flapper attire, including Calgarians Loretta and Dawn Gibbons and their mother,

Gloria Breitenstein, who is celebrating her 70th birthday. “We’re having a fantastic time and making it up as we go,” Loretta says. “I’d never been on a train in my life and I wanted to go on one for this milestone birthday.” As a gun blasts and the theatrics wrap up, guests submit votes on who is the killer. Hilarious responses are read aloud and train souvenir prizes are given. Breitenstein wins best costume. It’s time to explore the community. Commanding prime spot on the hilltop is the blue St. Edmund’s Anglican Church. Some tourists step into pioneer costumes for photos on Jimmy Jock Boardwalk, savour cinnamon buns at the bakery, browse through Big Valley Antiques or enjoy the museums and historic rail cars. Big

Valley exhibits a big spirit of volunteerism, celebration and community pride. Back on the train, we clang toward Stettler and learn more rail history and train trivia. I now know why the signal at crossings, two longs, a short and a long, is the same as the letter Q in Morse code and what Caesar’s forearm has to do with track width. The Alberta Prairie passenger service staff is eager to answer questions and jokes abound, including this one: “This steam locomotive actually runs better backward than forward ... it thinks it’s a politician.” “It’s been awesome,” says Spruce Grove, Alta., resident Julie Keyser, 27, of her experience. “This marriage of history and theatre ... I’m always looking for unique

things to do in Alberta.” Edmontonians Steve and Denise Wowk agree that the excursion has met their expectations. “The beauty of the old trains ... you just don’t see that craftsmanship anymore and I really liked the warm, welcoming people,” Denise says. Steve got to see the engine. “The heat just hits you, and it’s loud ... holy smokes,” he said. Personally, it isn’t the hearty meal, the performances or the train that will stay with me, including the technical details, the history or the sensation of riding through clouds when steam’s released. I will remember the couple snuggled together in a quarter-ton with a horse trailer waving to us from a rail crossing and the passionate young

father, who said he loves living next to the track, and his little girl who never misses waving to passengers. It was the families who stood at fence lines, cheerfully waving and wearing broad smiles as we chugged by. It was Brent Bartley, who was sewing leather chaps at Barbwire Custom Hats in Big Valley and the volunteer at the landmark church on the hill, who told us it was painted robin’s egg blue because there happened to be a sale on paint. It was the way the volunteers in Stettler and Big Valley worked together to show a train load of strangers a fine time on an autumn day in Alberta. As for which character was responsible for murder, did I get it right? Yes, but it was just luck.

ON THE FARM | SMALL AND LOW COST

Off-farm jobs support desire for independence Debt conscious couple plans slow expansion BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Wian Prinsloo and Lydia Carpenter raise chickens, goats, rabbits and sheep on Luna Field Farm near Winnipeg. | ROBERT ARNASON PHOTOS

NESBITT, Man. — Romantic, rural scenery well suited for a movie shoot is visible in nearly every direction from a small patch of grass in front of Lydia Carpenter and Wian Prinsloo’s trailer. To the northeast, a small, white church sits at the corner of a rolling pasture. To the south, the midday sun warms sheep grazing on the side of a hill. And only metres from the trailer, a small flock of goats wanders about the farmyard. However, despite the natural beauty of their farm, Carpenter and Prinsloo don’t fit the stereotype of smallscale farmers. They aren’t city residents who left the rat race to pursue the simple, pastoral and clichéd lifestyle associated with running a farm. In fact, Carpenter and Prinsloo sound nothing like city folks living out a dream. They sound more like business school graduates. During a 45 minute conversation at their farm, they frequently used phrases such as depreciating assets, servicing debt and relationship marketing.

Last year, the young couple began renting 80 acres of farmland near Nesbitt. There, they produce pasture raised chickens, grass fed lamb and a small amount of goat and rabbit meat for 100 clients in Winnipeg and Brandon. Carpenter and Prinsloo are trying to minimize capital costs of their new business, which they call Luna Field Farm. They don’t own a tractor or other expensive machinery, but they do have a half-ton and a livestock trailer. “This operation is not capital intensive…. We are focused on access to land and livestock,” said Carpenter, 28, who grew up in northeast Winnipeg and has a master’s degree in natural resource management from the University of Manitoba. “We’re trying to avoid the depreciating assets until we build up capital.” Carpenter said she became interested in farming when she was a teenager. She took a year of high school in Mexico, where she noticed that people ate fresh food nearly every day. The experience fostered an interest in food production and agriculture, leading to a master’s thesis on rural livelihoods in Brazil. However, her attraction to farming wasn’t based on a romantic perception of rural life. “It wasn’t like, ‘I’m going to farm because it will be the answer to all the environmental problems,’ ” she said, while sitting at a picnic table next to their trailer. “I just thought it’s one way I can be independent, have my own business … and I feel good about doing this for work.” Much like Carpenter, Prinsloo, 26, is drawn to the business aspect of farming. However, he learned much earlier than Carpenter that he was a natural-born entrepreneur. “My grandparents bought me three (chickens). I think I was six at the time,” said Prinsloo, who grew up in Pretoria, a city of four million in South Africa.

Even though he was just a child, Prinsloo recognized a deficiency in his operation after a year of tending to his birds and producing eggs for sale. His chickens, an ornamental breed, weren’t good at laying eggs. “I realized that these chickens are not really profitable.… I realized that if I want to make a little bit of money, I’ve got to get rid of these (chickens) and get something that lays a little better,” he said. “That’s when, I think, I became a farmer, tying in the economics into it. It had to be practical…. It was amazing because you’re this little kid and you’re making money. Your friends are playing Nintendo and you’re out hawking eggs.” After nearly a decade of raising chickens in South Africa, Prinsloo immigrated to Winnipeg with his mother when he was 15. He restarted his farming career a few years later by renting land from farmers just outside of Winnipeg and raising broiler chickens. Prinsloo sold the chickens to friends and neighbours in Winnipeg and quickly developed a loyal base of clients. He moved from job to job over the next several years, normally working on farms in Manitoba during the summer months. Prinsloo managed to maintain his client base because he always rented a small piece of land from employers to raise chickens. More than 100 established clients gave Prinsloo and Carpenter the confidence to rent a larger piece of land near Nesbitt to expand their business and establish a permanent residence in rural Manitoba. As they walked through the native grass in the farmyard with hundreds of grasshoppers leaping out of the way, Carpenter and Prinsloo said they will produce 900 pastured chickens this summer. They raise the birds inside portable

pens, which are three by four metres and located on a pasture just west of their yard. Each pen contains 70 Cornish Crosses, starting at three to four weeks old. Carpenter and Prinsloo move the pens as the chickens grow to spread the manure over the pasture. The chickens are transported to a slaughter plant when they gain sufficient weight, where they are prepared for customers who buy directly from Luna Field Farm.

The larger farm has also allowed Prinsloo and Carpenter to establish a flock of 100 ewes. For now, their main products are grass-fed lamb and pastured chickens, but they have also bought 10 cows and plan to produce grass fed beef starting in 2014. They are dedicated to expanding the farm, but it will likely happen slowly because they have no interest in taking on debt. Carpenter works part time as an English as a second language teacher at Assiniboine Community College in Brandon, while Prinsloo has a job with the Manitoba Agricultural Services Corp. Income from the two jobs subsidizes their farm business. “To capitalize a business, you have two choices: go to work or go to the bank,” Prinsloo said. “We’re choosing work. Servicing debt, other than land access, that’s one of the biggest challenges (of farming).”

Here a broken arm, there a heart attack (apparently), and everywhere an unstated plea to the overworked caregivers: “Help me. Something isn’t right here.” I am aware of recent stories stating that three out of four emergency room patients don’t belong there because, hitting your thumb with a hammer might not be a true emergency when a guy over there is turning blue. Accessing the ER is something like taking Old Betsy to the garage and telling the “customer service representative” that Betsy is having trouble on cold mornings. She tends to stall every time she comes to a stop.” The guy writes the symptoms as described by you on a work order, “car tends to stall when cold,” and hands you a pen. That’s your cue to sign a document indicating that you agree with the mechanic when he says, “We’re doing the best we can, dude. We’re not brain surgeons, you know.” Except that in the case of the hospital, they are brain surgeons, some of them at least, and it’s your brain or spleen or heart they’re monkeying with.

Advertorial

Anyway you pencil it out,

NexeraTM canola hybrids equal healthier proﬁts. In 2013, Nexera is expected to return over $115 million over and above the value of commodity canola. Since its launch, Nexera has returned over $426 million to Western Canadian growers – with more than half of that coming in the last three years. “The higher returns are being driven by a number of factors,” says Kerry Freeman, Nexera Product Manager, Dow AgroSciences. “Superior canola yields combined with the grower premiums and incentives associated with Nexera canola are increasing returns. Strong market demand by new and growing end-use customers for heart-healthy Omega-9 Oil is also a big factor.” Freeman also points out that the heart-healthy Omega-9 Oil made from high-yielding Nexera canola is the new standard in today’s food industry. And the higher-value, end-use product translates into higher proﬁts at the farm level.

Higher profitability starts with the proven performance of Nexera canola hybrids New Nexera canola hybrids increase the profitability equation, and the number of Nexera canola acres grown continues to increase year over year. The Nexera canola hybrid Roundup Ready® Series and Clearfield® Series each offer two high-performing hybrids that are changing canola. Their success is driven by a number of factors, including: • next-generation hybrid technology • industry-leading hybrid yields • early- and late-season hybrid vigour • excellent standability • superior disease resistance

Highest in grower satisfaction, too These new hybrids are ideal for growers in the mid and long-season zones who are looking for hybrid yields and higher profit. They offer yield potential equivalent to any competitive canola hybrid, and result in profitability that’s higher than other canola brands. In fact, Nexera RR Hybrids rank highest in grower satisfaction, according to Canola Evaluation and Intentions, Canada, 2012, Stratus Agri-Marketing, Inc. The option of the Roundup Ready or Clearfield weed control system allows Nexera canola growers to choose the system that works best for them. Either way, growers get the advantages of convenience, flexibility and superior weed control from a production system designed to help them make the most of the Nexera canola profit opportunity.

he golden and crimson leaves are gracefully falling to the ground and as the days grow shorter and the weather cools, we tend to change more than our wardrobes. The kind of food we crave changes from fresh greens and grilling to warm, spicy and baked. We need to heat things up and use spices to jazz up our food experience. There is nothing like arriving home to warm comfort food and baked fruit desserts. The aroma alone is enough to melt away the stress of a long day of work.

SPICY AUTUMN CHILI My family never requests chili over the summer months but as soon as the temperature starts to drop, this dish is put back on the menu. This is a traditional recipe with a twist of pulse. Serve this chili over hot mashed potatoes and do not forget the

Brown the beef, onion, pepper and celery in a skillet with or without garlic seasoning. Add remaining ingredients, stir and cook over medium heat approximately 40 minutes, then simmer until ready to serve.

Ginger crinkles and spiced pumpkin muffins are packed with flavour. | You can also prepare this recipe in a four to five quart (4 to 5 L) slow cooker, simply brown the meat and vegetables as you would above and then add to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for eight to 10 hours or on high for four to five hours. Garnish with shredded cheese just before serving. Serves eight.

HARVESTING CORN | ARRANGEMENTS

Drying decorative corn for fall arrangement IN THE COUNTRY GARDEN

ALBERT PARSONS

ini pumpkins, decorative gourds, dry grasses, corn stalks, tansy and goldenrod create great autumn displays. Decorative corn cobs dress up porch arrangements and seasonal baskets. The kernels can be a myriad of colours, including red, orange, burgundy and purple. I like the variety called Painted Mountain because many of the cobs are multi-coloured. It is also a relatively short season (85 days) variety. Decorative corn requires a long growing season and a hot summer to mature before fall frost strikes. I do admire the mini-cob varieties, but the shortest growing season variety that I have found is 90 days, too long for my Zone 2 garden. I have to be content with the regular sized cobs of such varieties as Painted Mountain. I plant the seeds in the garden about the third week in May after the soil has warmed up. I like to plant in several short, side-by-side rows to facilitate pollination and keep it as far away from my other corn as possible. Corn loves heat and water, as well as a rich, deeply dug soil. It develops cobs about the same time as the main corn crop and usually by the end of the first week in September, the kernels in the cobs are hard to the touch. Even though the husks might still be green, if the kernels are hard, I harvest the cobs before frost occurs. Package instructions say to leave the cobs on the plants until the husks are brown. Harvesting the cobs so soon means that mould could be a problem so drying needs to occur quickly. I peel back the husks and remove the silk, leaving the husk attached at the base of each cob. I tie the cobs in bundles, three to a bundle, with a piece of twine wrapped around the ends of the husks. I hang the bundles of cobs, cob-end down, on a sturdy line in the garage. I use a fan to blow air onto the cobs. The moving air quickly dries the cobs and husks. The kernels might shrink if the cobs are harvested while the kernels are soft and immature. The drying process takes a couple of weeks and then the cobs are dry enough to use in displays. The husks will have dried to a nice light tan colour. I put some cobs in baskets on beds of raffia, combine others in baskets with mini-pumpkins and decorative gourds and add others to tall dried porch arrangements of corn stalks and dried grasses, tansy, dock and goldenrod.

U.S. FARM PROGRAM | SUBSIDIES

U.S. program reduces corn acres by 3.5 million WASHINGTON (Reuters) — Farmers who participated in U.S. crop subsidy programs reported “prevented plantings” of 3.573 million acres of corn and 1.687 million acres of soybeans this year, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. “We did see the prevent planted acres go up a little and the numbers are probably a little bit supportive to

the market,” said Sterling Smith, a futures specialist with Citigroup. “These numbers shouldn’t be viewed as the end-all or be-all for acres and are only a part of the formula that USDA will use to determine final acreage for this year.” Producers enrolled in subsidy programs for this year reported planted acreage, including failed acres, at

91.428 million for corn and 74.659 million for soybeans. Producers who enroll in several Farm Services Agency programs must submit an annual report to the USDA regarding all cropland use. The USDA uses the information as an element in its crop estimates, which cover all farms, not just those that participate in the farm program.

his message is in reply to your invitation to send along memories of the good old days with The Western Producer. I don’t remember back 90 years, but I’ve been around for a good two thirds of that time. The Western Producer was always a part of the scene on the family farm where I grew up near Viscount, Sask. Of course, it was my dad’s paper most of all. He still subscribes even though he and Mom now live in a condo in Saskatoon and have just this year sold the land that was in on our family’s care for 104 years. Dad (Norman Thoen) was a strong (Saskatchewan) Wheat Pool supporter, and The Western Producer was his window on the world of agriculture — his trade magazine. As the only male in a household of eight, The Western Producer was also Dad’s first line of defence. In the evening after a long day’s work in the field, Dad often hid behind the Producer. That was his main way to escape the commotion created by seven females, with only one bathroom to share and chores to dispute. The WP was also important to our family for its coverage of 4-H events. My sisters and I were very active in the program, inspired to be more so by the WP coverage of 4-H public speaking events, Dress Revue, bus tours, camps and Provincial Selections trips to exotic locations across the country. Seeing the success of others, we dared to dream that one day that might just be us with our name in the news. My mom, Ruth Thoen, was a 4-H leader for most of her adult life. In

fact, she was the first volunteer 4-H leader to serve as president of the Canadian 4–H Council. We often found news of her doings in your 4-H pages. For me personally, the WP is responsible for encouraging my career as a writer. As soon as I could read, write and mail a letter, I joined the YC (Young Co-operator’s) club under the pen name, Princess Dale. I spent many hours out on a rise overlooking the pasture, pencil and paper in hand, crafting poems and stories to send off to The Western Producer. Every Wednesday after school (although officially published on Thursday, the paper often arrived a day early), I’d race from the school bus to the kitchen table. I hoped that Mom or Dad would have been to town to pick up the mail and that this week Bluebird or Sister Ann had chosen one of my pieces to publish in that week’s paper. I did eventually win my HC designation, which I think marked 20 submissions in print. It was seeing Princess Dale’s name and words in a real publication that inspired the desire to someday see my real name on the cover of a book I’d written. Since then, I have gone on to author a total of five books. Each time one rolls off the press and into my hands, I am just as thrilled as I was that very first time my scribbles appeared in your paper. Thanks to the staff and editors of The Western Producer for your service to rural life on the Prairies for all these years. Thanks, not just for covering the news, but also for inspiring dreams and helping them come true. Congratulations to you all.

Kate Brauman at the University of Minnesota is leading a study on the relationship between crop yield and water use. | UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA PHOTO RESEARCH | WATER USE

Experts focus on water use Producing higher yields using less water would feed more people BY MARGARET EVANS FREELANCE WRITER

LINDELL BEACH, B.C. — Climate change is starting to focus on water productivity and the amount of food produced in relation to the amount of water consumed. These issues will become even bigger for farmers and consumers as precipitation patterns change and the global population increases. Scientists with the University of Minnesota’s Institute on the Environment (IonE) and the University of Bonn’s Institute of Crop Science and Resource Conservation (INRES) have analyzed crop production, water use and productivity of 16 staple crops grown in 20 climatic zones around the world. Crops included wheat, corn, rice, barley, rye, millet, sorghum, soybean, sunflower, potato, cassava, sugar cane, sugar beet, oil palm, rapeseed and groundnut. They represent 56 percent of global crop production by tonnage, account for 65 percent of crop water consumed and are grown on 68 percent of all cropland. “What we looked at was how much food is being produced in relation to how much water is used,” said Kate Brauman, global landscapes initiative postdoctoral fellow with IonE and the lead author of the report. “What was the crop yield and how much water was used during the growing period, (including) how much water was evaporated from the ground or from the crop during that growing period.” The team’s report, Improvements in crop water productivity increase water sustainability and food security — a global analysis, was published online in Environmental Research Letters. “Reducing the amount of water required for crop production and increasing crop water productivity is a key strategy for achieving food security and water sustainability in a world with growing demands for

both,” Brauman wrote. “If, for example, low water productivity in precipitation-limited regions were raised to the 20th percentile, the total rain-fed food production in Africa could be increased by more than 10 percent without exploiting additional cropland. “Similar improvements in water productivity on irrigated cropland could reduce total water consumption by eight to 15 percent in precipitation-limited regions of Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America.” Brauman defined the 20th percentile as a baseline for the least amount of productivity to grow a crop. “The 20 percent is a survival guide. The number means that even if we just try to intervene at this level, we get results. If we get farmers to the 20 percent baseline, they will increase food production with less water and more food as a result.” Irrigation and productivity The use of irrigation consumes more water than any other human activity. For the 16 crops studied, 52 percent of rainwater consumption (by irrigated and rain fed crops) and 82 percent of irrigation water consumption occur in regions of limited rainfall. However, water consumption can be disproportionately large for the volume of food produced. “On the least water-productive rain-fed cropland in precipitationlimited regions, over 46 percent of water was consumed in the production of just 20 per cent of maize calories,” Brauman wrote. The team looked at locations where crops are irrigated and where crops are rain fed. In rain-fed areas, researchers explored how to get more food out of the same area. Researchers accounted for different evaporation and humidity rates and addressed the level of variation in a climate zone as they adjusted for the influence of microclimates.

She said it is reasonable to irrigate, but the issue comes down to what is being irrigated and how a limited resource such as water is being used. “We looked at ratios of kilocalories to water,” she said. “If you are growing crops but not getting a very good yield, a lot of the time you are using the same amount of water. You are still growing plants, but the ratios would be different.” She said those ratios vary not only because of microclimates but also because of management practices such as the use of fertilizer, weed problems, pests, and the application of conservation tillage. Improving water use efficiency by 20 percent would measurably increase food production but researchers estimate a 30 percent increase is possible in precipitation-limited regions, providing food for more than 110 million people annually. On irrigated cropland, increasing the lowest water productivity in low rainfall regions would save water consumption without reducing food production. The water savings would amount to more than 25 percent of the current water consumption and would be enough to meet the annual domestic water demand of potentially 1.4 billion people. “The power of a global study like this is that it tells you what is possible and relatively where you sit,” said Brauman. “It does not tell you the specifics of technology, but it shows that you can do better and points you in the right direction. In Canada and the U.S., we do pretty well and get high yields. But there are lots of places where yields like ours do not happen.” Brauman said a lot of the water issues will involve hard political decisions of reallocation and changes in economics. “People are starting to really think about water and think about the future. There are a lot of pieces to the puzzle, but we have to start using water more efficiently.”

ALBERTA Warm, dry weather has assisted harvest. Farmers across the province are well ahead of the five-year averages for this time of year. Yields for almost all crops are expected to be 20 to 25 percent above five-year averages, with the vast majority of spring wheat, barley, oats and canola crops placing in the top two grades. Drier conditions, however, are affecting seeding and crop ratings on fall cereals of which only half are rated good or excellent in the central region. SOUTH Yields are above five-year averag-

es. Quality is good, although below 2012 levels. Spring wheat fields are yielding as much as 20 percent above average, although ergot is affecting some crops. Canola yields are average with some early seeded fields faring better. Peas have yielded as many as 85 bushels an acre. Lentils have performed well and flax crops are expected to yield big as well. CENTRAL Yields are 20 to 30 percent above the five-year averages with good quality reported in spring wheat, barley and canola crops. Canola is averaging 45 and 55 bu. per acre. Growers are seeing yields as high as 100 bu. per acre in barley and 90 bu. per acre and above in spring wheat, although with lower protein levels. Peas are yielding between 50 and 70 bu. per acre.

NORTH The northeast, which was drier, has benefited from rain. Growers there are seeing yields 10 to 20 percent ahead of five-year averages. Crops in the northwest are maturing later and growers in that area are further behind in harvest work. Yields in that region are better at 20 to 30 percent above five-year averages. Excellent quality is reported in crops across northern Alberta. PEACE Harvest work is progressing despite rain. Positive growing conditions throughout the season have boosted yield estimates which are 30 to 40 percent above five-year averages. Good quality is reported with most crops rated in the top two grades.

Connecting Kids with Agriculture Agriculture in the Classroom Saskatchewan is a registered charity with a mandate to connect kids and agriculture through innovative, curriculum-based programs and resources. In 2012, our programming reached over 17,000 students and teachers in the K-12 education system. We liaise with the agriculture and education sectors to develop and distribute resources to teachers across Saskatchewan, as well as, organize hands-on, outreach programs for students. As a result of the programming that we provide, young people have a greater awareness and understanding of agriculture and the significant role it plays in our economy, community, and future. Learning about agriculture through interesting and interactive methods also inspires our youth to consider the diverse career opportunities the agriculture industry has to offer.

There are many ways to support agriculture education such as hosting farm tours, visiting classrooms, volunteering at outreach events, or making a charitable donation. We could not do our jobs without our producers' support and our volunteers.

Saskatchewan to host Insects healthy international trade summit alternatives to Canada, Mexico, U.S. | Goal of meeting is to increase province’s exports BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Saskatchewan will host an agricultural trade summit next year as part of its goal to increase exports. The Feb. 4-5 event in Saskatoon will bring together producers, trade experts and people involved in trade to talk about market access and how to increase the province’s agricultural exports. The province’s growth plan calls for agri-food exports to increase to $15 billion by 2020. In 2012, the total was more than $11 billion and Saskatchewan was the top exporting province in the country. Additionally, agriculture is responsible for more than one-third of the province’s total export earnings. Premier Brad Wall announced the summit at last week’s Tri-National Agricultural Accord meeting in Saskatoon. Nineteen American states, five Canadian provinces and four Mexican states were represented at the annual meeting of provincial and state agricultural leaders, which is

designed to strengthen co-operation and improve understanding. At that meeting, Canada-U.S., Canada-Mexico, and Mexico-U.S. working groups discussed trade issues, including the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations, the U.S. Food Safety Modernization Act, country-of-origin labelling and regulatory co-operation. Delegates from Canada and Mexico issued a joint statement expressing their disappointment with the revised U.S. COOL rule. They said the new rule has not brought the U.S. into compliance with W TO obligations and will increase discrimination against Canadian and Mexican livestock.

$15 billion

“Furthermore, the revised COOL rule will result in greater damages, including increased costs and job losses, in the livestock and meat processing industries of the United States, Mexico and Canada,” the statement said. They urged U.S. Congress to fix COOL and repeated their support for their own federal governments to take action against the U.S. at the WTO, including retaliatory measures if needed. Delegates to the Canada-U.S. meeting said they recognize the trade disruption that can be caused by low level presence of a product approved in one country but not the other. Meetings between all three countries resulted in agreements that the TPP negotiations should be successfully completed and that their federal governments should liberalize agricultural trade to the benefit of producers in all three countries. A policy dealing with low level presence should be included. They said North American cooperation enhances competitiveness.

traditional meat High in protein | Insects are environmentally friendly and more sustainable than livestock farming BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

SASKATOON — Eating insects may not appeal to many westerners, but they are commonly eaten in other parts of the world. Flies, caterpillars, ants, worms and beetles do not take up much space and are easy to raise, said Kaori Inside, a former editor with the online news service All About Feed who is now based in Japan with TNO, a food and pharmaceutical research company. Insects are part of the traditional diet for two billion people and are sold in local markets in southeast Asia, Africa and Latin America, Nishide told the Western Nutrition Conference held in Saskatoon Sept. 24-26. “It has been done since the ancient times, and there are 1,900 species eaten,” she said. Most edible insects are harvested on small, family run insect farms as opposed to large commercial enterprises. More research and development are needed in this area, she added, because current production systems are expensive and quality controls are required. Many people are familiar with chocolate coated insects. “This is perfectly eatable … and there is scientific evidence these are perfectly healthy and nutritious,” she said. “Environmentally speaking, economically speaking, it is sustainable and even better than livestock farming.” Insects are comparable in protein content to soy meal or fish meal for livestock feed formulas. “Why not substitute that with fish meal which are now getting less and less in their availability,” she said. An international co-operative of 15 companies, universities and government agencies based in the Netherlands was formed earlier this year. All are interested in using insects and larvae as a protein rich resource for feed, food and the pharmaceutical industry. Nishide said alternatives are needed as the world’s appetite for meat and dairy grows. The world consumed 14 million tonnes of beef and 21 million tonnes of pork in 2000, which is expected to increase to 39 million tonnes of beef and 56 million tonnes of pork by 2030. Chicken consumption will exceed 82 million tonnes, up from 30 million tonnes. However, prices are also going up, and consumers need affordable and nutritious alternatives. For example, Canadians spent 32 percent of their food bill on eggs, dairy, meat, processed meat and poultry in 2011. In Japan, 22 percent of the food budget was spent on dairy, eggs, meat and seafood.

Insects and larvae are protein rich resources that can be used for feed, food and pharmaceuticals. | FILE PHOTO As well, consumers waste more as they spend more, to the tune of 1.3 billion tonnes per year. For example, people follow sell-by dates, even though they are really meant for retailers’ stock control. They throw the product away if they notice the expiry date has passed by even a day. “That is nonsense. It is still eatable,” she said. “We don’t plan to use up all food in a refrigerator, and we don’t finish a plate while we are eating out,” she said. She suggested that portions should be smaller in restaurants, and leftover food should be recycled as animal feed. Eco-feed in Japan consists of ingredients such as bread crumbs, noodle waste, soy sauce, tofu cake, large crops, leftover ready-made meals, used oil and cut up vegetables. These are silaged, dehydrated or turned into liquid feed. Nishide said using more byproducts from meat processing is another way to supply more food. Researchers and the meat industry should emphasize the development of more soup stocks, further processed products, pet food, lard and tallow for food and feed. They need to promote the higher use of byproducts around the world and educate people about their safe use and value as good sources of energy and protein. “ The risk that we perceive as humans from what we feel is safe is a totally different thing from a scientifically proven risk,” she said. “That should be clearly communicated.” People also need to accept technology like transgenic fish, in vitro meat and bioprinting. Meat grown in a laboratory or in vitro meat has been studied since 2001 in 30 labs around the world. She said growing meat from a few muscle cells is possible, but it needs to be more palatable and affordable. Nishide’s company is researching bio-printing, in which layers of cells can be laid down to resemble real meat. The technology exists, but it is still too expensive compared to conventional meat.

WEATHER | REPORTING

Short, focused UN climate reports urged Reforms to be discussed | Lengthy reports produced every six years are often outdated OSLO, Norway (Reuters) — Climate experts on a United Nations panel should focus more on shorter reports on specialty subjects such as extreme weather, many scientists and governments say. It would be a shift from sweeping overviews of the kind that are now being prepared in Stockholm, Sweden. The big studies about global warming, produced every six or seven years by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), are authoritative but time-consuming and in some cases quickly out of date. “A blockbuster every six years is no longer really helpful,” said professor Myles Allen of Oxford University, one of the authors who contributed to a recent IPCC summary. Many experts instead favour more frequent and targeted reports, for instance about droughts, floods and heat waves in the preceding year, to see if climate change is influencing their frequency or severity. A focus for special reports could be food production in a changing climate, the prospects for geoengineering, such as projects to dim sunlight, or the risks of irreversible changes such as a runaway melt of western Antarctica. The IPCC is working on three overview reports totalling 3,000 pages, starting with a 31-page draft summary of the science of climate change that was scheduled to be released in Stockholm last week. A big strength of the IPCC is that its assessments of the climate are approved by scientists and governments, which gives the findings broad acceptance in negotiations on a UN deal to fight climate change, due to be agreed by 2015. Possible reforms will be discussed at talks in Georgia in October. “I support the global assessment cycle, but would strongly argue for the need to complement it with frequent updates,” said Johan Rockstrom, director of the Stockholm Resilience Center. Drafts of the Stockholm report show that the IPCC is set to raise the probability that most climate change since the 1950s is man-made to “extremely likely,” or at least 95 percent, from “very likely,” or 90 percent, in 2007. Many nations, including the United States, also argue for more special reports. In recent years, the IPCC has produced reports on extreme weather and on renewable energies. Britain suggests using web-based “wiki” type tools that could allow more frequent updates. Italy says that there is “no automatic need” for another blockbuster report about the science of climate change, like the one in Stockholm. One problem is that IPCC assessments are quickly out of date. For example, scientists trying to account for a hiatus in the pace of global warming this century are allowed to consider only peer-reviewed litera-

ture from before mid-March 2013. Scientists who contribute to the IPCC work for free. It means prestige — the IPCC shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize — but also criticism, such as after the IPCC exaggerated the pace of the thaw of Himalayan glaciers in 2007 by projecting they might all vanish by 2035.

Climate experts are exploring whether to issue more frequent specific reports focusing on extreme weather events, such as floods, droughts and heat waves. | FILE PHOTO

U.S. SUGAR | OVERSUPPLY

U.S. eager to sell surplus sugar at a loss Depressed prices | The USDA wants to reduce the sugar surplus, forecast at 2.2 million tons, to reduce price support payments WASHINGTON (Reuters) — The U.S. government has offered to sell surplus sugar to biofuel makers in an effort to alleviate the highest sugar subsidy costs in a decade. The initiative was created during the early days of the ethanol boom. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has tried repeatedly since June to whittle down an oversupply that has depressed futures prices and created the possibility of a default on $258.7 million in USDA price support loans Sept. 30. It was the second time the USDA

has used the Feedstock Flexibility Program. The first attempt resulted in a comparatively tiny sale, but the USDA said it modified the program to encourage more participation. “This iteration of FFP is different from the earlier version in that sugar cane and sugar beet processors are encouraged to submit their offer jointly with the bioenergy producer,” said the department. Refiners forfeited 85,375 tons of sugar to the USDA Aug. 31 rather than repay $34.6 million in loans. Some 556,650 tons are under loans

that come due this month. The USDA unveiled the new FFP round on the day it was due to inform sugar processors of the results of a Sept. 12 offer to swap unwanted sugar for credits held by processors that allow them to bring sugar into the United States for refining and sale abroad. Earlier swaps reduced the surplus by 354,712 tons. “Whatever the USDA has done, it hasn’t been enough, and there’s still a lot of sugar in the pipeline,” said Jerry Kramer of Kramer Sugar Company, a brokerage in Welles-

ley, Massachusetts. “I’m not sure if this will be enough or what the reaction will be this time around.” Due in part to huge crops worldwide, the U.S. sugar surplus is forecast at 2.2 million tons at the end of this month, equal to 18.4 percent of annual consumption. The USDA aims for a 15 percent stocks-to-use ratio. Many U.S. sugar growers say the problem has worsened because of large shipments from Mexico, which has free access to the U.S. market.

Processors offered 90,000 tons of sugar in the initial round of the FFP, but only 7,118 tons were sold to Front Range Energy for $854,100. The government lost nearly $3 million on the sale, but it slightly offset the cost of the forfeited sugar. By law, the USDA is obliged to assure growers of a minimum price for sugar of 20.9 cents per pound while operating the sugar program at no net cost to taxpayers. The department limits imports and the marketing of U.S.-grown sugar to achieve the twin goals.

Argentina welcomes big wheat crop after poor 2012 BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) — Argentina is on track to harvest more wheat this season than last as greater acreage and coming warm weather should offset any yield loss caused by recent frosts. The grain powerhouse should produce more than the 8.2 million tonnes it reported last season. Harvesting starts in November and forecasts call for warm weather after the wheat belt got blasted by Antarctic air the past few days. “There have been frosts, but not enough to significantly damage yields. We can come back from this,” said Ruben Sgalippa, who owns a farm in the town of Carlos Casares, Buenos Aires province. Other growers around the Pampas grains belt echoed Sgalippa’s take on the situation. The United States Department of Agriculture sees a 2013-14 Argentine wheat crop of 12 million tonnes, up from 10 million tonnes the previous season. Planting intentions increased this year thanks to a local price surge caused by high early-season exports. A big crop is needed in Argentina after last year’s smaller harvest tightened supplies and drove up local bread prices. World buyers, including neighbour Brazil, also need Argentina’s wheat as global demand for grain is on the rise. U.S. wheat exports are already up 40 percent this year versus 2012 as buyers look to America for supplies needed to compensate for a poor Chinese crop and possible low yields in Argentina, where growers strive to avoid planting wheat in order to skirt onerous export curbs imposed by the government. “The acreage planted this year is larger than last year, and the crop looks better, although we have had drought in some areas, and many frosts,” said David Hughes, who manages about 17,000 acres of farmland in northern Buenos Aires province. “All considered, total production should be greater than last year,” he added.

CHINA | WATER SUPPLY

Climate change becomes China’s convenient truth Climate change a scapegoat | Expert says China’s water shortages are caused by catastrophic urbanization and construction mania BEIJING, China (Reuters) — For China, global warming has become something of a convenient truth. Beijing blames climate change for wreaking havoc on scarce water resources, but critics say the country’s headlong drive to build its industrial prowess and huge hydro projects are just as responsible. The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) says shrinking glaciers in central Asia and the Himalayas would affect water resources in downstream river catchments, which include China. “Some regions are already near the critical temperature threshold,” it said in a draft summary report. “In parts of Asia, increases in flood and drought will exacerbate rural poverty, due to negative impacts on rice crops and increases in food prices and costs of living.” Rising temperatures are likely to speed icecap melting in the Himalayas, which could bring first floods and then severe drought, with diminished seasonal melts unable to replenish China’s rivers, including the mighty Yangtze. This year, China published a national “water census” showing that as many as 28,000 rivers logged in a government database had vanished since the 1990s, leaving slightly less than 23,000. The census gave no reason for the disappearance, but China’s weather bureau said several major rivers, including the Yellow River, a massive northern waterway linking nine provinces, had been dwindling since 1970 and the trend was likely to continue. “We have witnessed major fluctuations in precipitation in different parts of China,” said Ma Jun, a water expert and director of the Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs, which monitors China’s rivers. “One thing in the mind of policymakers and researchers is that climate change will add to uncertainties. In some areas, the water supply situation is already quite tense.” However, rising temperatures are only part of China’s problems, many of which have resulted from overpopulation, aggressive industrialization and a reliance on elaborate engineering schemes to irrigate crops and harness scarce supplies. “China’s water shortages stem more from problematic urbanization and water resource management, rather than the scapegoat of climate change,” said Zhou Lei, a fellow at Nanjing University who studies how industry affects the environment. “In my home town in Jiangxi, the water system consisted of underground springs, ponds, wetlands, brooks, streams, and seasonal rivulets, but all these have been totally ruined in the last 20 years due to a catastrophic urbanization plan, a construction mania and transport megaprojects,” he said. China has vowed to spend hundreds of billions of dollars to boost supplies, clean rivers and protect water tables. However, even if supplies remain steady, water resources per person, now at 2,100 cubic metres, or 28 percent of the global average, are expect-

ed to decline further as the population grows. At the same time, Beijing still needs to feed its growing food, energy and industrial demand. China has long sought to wring as much water as it can from its parched earth, but it is approaching the limits of what it can retrieve. Projections expect total annual demand to reach 700 to 800 billion cubic metres by 2030, only slightly lower than total available supplies. “In the last 50 years we have mainly focused on expanding water supplies, but at this moment I think we have in many areas reached our limit and we need to shift our focus to conservation,” said Ma. The reliance on megaprojects to solve shortages has created a vicious circle, channelling water to stateowned farms, giant industrial plants and hydropower stations, diverting natural flows and leaving surround-

800 billion CHINA’S PROJECTED WATER DEMAND BY 2030, IN CUBIC METRES ing areas more parched than before. Some regions desperate for growth have been forced to choose between water and energy. Gansu plans to build several giant hydro plants in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, defying warnings that this could restrict downstream water supplies. Elsewhere, green groups say scarce water resources are being diverted from agriculture to profitable coalfired power plants, with China building thirsty “coal production bases” in dry areas such as Inner Mongolia,

Ningxia and Shaanxi. However, even flood-prone southwestern provinces have suffered from droughts once regarded as unthinkable. In Yunnan, dozens of rivers have been dammed to generate power and complex canal systems built to improve irrigation. Water diversion has made shortages more likely. Several rivers in the province have dried up over the last decade, and drought has been common. In April, hundreds of wells and streams dried up, creating a crisis for thousands of farmers. “China is looking always at megaprojects rather than addressing the root causes,” said Zhou. “They experiment with technologies to treat the problem, like the water transfer projects being done right now, but they are draining resources in a very wrong way.” China has put its faith in elaborate

engineering and technological solutions such as giant dams and diversion channels, as well as cloud seeding and desalination. Its biggest megaproject of all is a vast system of canals known as the SouthNorth Water Diversion project. Opponents say the project, designed to connect the flood-prone Yangtze with the drought-hit Yellow River through three cross-country canals, including one in the far west where the two rivers originate, could worsen shortages. “The negative impact of these big engineering projects could be quite serious and some of the problems could be transferred to other areas, especially in the west,” said Ma. “We spent our resources mainly on engineering and on technologies to drill deeper, build dams and work on water diversion projects, but we need to work on conservation.”

RESEARCH | ANTIBODIES

Cow antibodies hold promise for human medicine Long protein loops | The long arms grab viruses and bacteria in hidden areas, improving the animal’s defence against infection

We are investigating whether cows might be able to make potent anti-HIV antibodies. Cows appear to have a unique mechanism that can efficiently mutate the CDR3s to give them new structures and binding specificities.

BY MARGARET EVANS FREELANCE WRITER

LINDELL BEACH, B.C. — Scientists at the Scripps Research Institute in California have been studying a unique family of cow antibodies that offer potential for developing new human medicine. These antibodies are large proteins that have a tail and identical arms like lobsters. They use these arms for grabbing bacteria or viruses. The part that does the grabbing is a cluster of protein loops called complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) and are unusually long. By modifying the genes that generate the CDRs, the cow’s immune system can be improved to generate a variety of antibodies that can attach to a greater number of pathogens. Scientists have known for a while that cows have unusually long CDRs in a particular region known as CDR H3. However, their potential has remained largely unknown until recently. “There were a few papers in the literature over the last 15 or so years showing that cows had unusually

long CDR3s, but not a lot of work has been done in this area,” said professor Vaughn V. Smider, assistant professor of cell and molecular biology

at Scripps. What has excited researchers is that these unusually long CDRs might be the key to the immunity’s defence

against serious infection, even HIV. A study reported in the journal Nature in August 2012 stated that the institute’s scientists had isolated an anti-HIV antibody with a long CDR H3 region that enabled it to crab the virus’s structure and neutralize the infectivity of most HIV strains. “Long CRD3s are known to be important in fighting off HIV infection,” said Smider. “We are investigating whether cows might be able to make potent antiHIV antibodies. Cows appear to have a unique mechanism that can efficiently mutate the CDR3s to give them new structures and binding specificities.” While cows have the ability to make long CDR3s at will, it is rare in humans. The benefit is that these long antibodies can probe cellular crevices to reach and bind onto a hidden bacterium that would normally

be out of reach to conventional antibodies. “It looks like a ball on a stick and protrudes out from the antibody surface to bind antigens,” Smider said. This unique ability could be linked to cows’ four-chamber stomach. “So far, cows are unique in having these long CDR3s,” he said. “We have suggested that the fourchambered stomach, and particularly the rumen, might provide a unique antigen load on the immune system. If some of these bacteria escape from the stomach and get into the blood stream or other tissues, there could be some pretty serious infections. This may have led to the unusual antibody structure.” Researchers have carried out a structural analysis of cow antibodies and found them unique with a long stalk on the top of which was the antigen-binding knob. That knob was formed by an amino acid that contained sulfur. This form of amino acid, called a cysteine, will bond to another cysteine on the same protein chain to form a loop. These loops are what grab the antigens. “Disulfide bonds create unique loops for antigen binding,” said Smider. As unique as they are to cows, other animal species could have something similar but be yet undiscovered, he said. The focus is now to develop biomedical human and veterinary applications.

FOOD SAFETY | MEDIA COVERAGE

Food safety issues receive different news treatment Sensational, unusual, scope | Raw milk cheese recall fails to steal spotlight BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

If nearly two dozen Canadians get sick and one dies from contaminated food, is that a story worthy of frontpage headlines? In the case of raw milk cheese, the answer is no. As of Sept. 24, the Public Health Agency of Canada noted that 22 people in five provinces had become ill and one died from raw milk cheese produced in British Columbia. As with most food poisoning cases and recalls, Canada’s main news outlets picked up on the story of contaminated cheese from Gort’s Gouda Cheese Farm in Salmon Arm, B.C. Yet, only a few days after the initial PHAC warning Sept. 17, there were no mentions of the outbreak on the main Globe and Mail webpage and many other newspapers, TV and radio stations dropped the story. In contrast, the E.coli outbreak and subsequent recall of meat from the XL Foods beef plant last fall generated headlines and TV coverage for weeks, as media invaded Brooks, Alta., to report on tainted beef that sickened 18 Canadians. Ben Chapman, a food safety specialist at North Carolina State University said the discrepancy in media coverage around food safety might be connected to food perceptions. “Something that’s seen as natural gets more of a pass in individual’s minds,” said Chapman, who grew up in Port Hope, Ont., and is an assistant professor at NC State. “If it’s not in the natural order of things (that) can generate more outrage…. The meat industry… probably (there) is a perception in some journalist’s minds that it’s not (part of) the natural order of food.” Chapman, who helps run a blog on food safety issues called Barfblog, has followed food poisoning outbreaks for more than a decade.

In most cases a food recall has to have a sensational or unusual component to drive media coverage. For instance, a few years ago the media and public were fascinated by an outbreak of E.coli in U.S. spinach. “It was surprising because who would ever think that there was E. coli 15787 in fresh spinach,” Chapman said. For XL Foods, the scale of the operation was a major part of the story, said Sylvain Charlebois, a University of Guelph management and economics professor who studies food safety. “With XL Foods you were dealing with one of the largest federally licensed abattoirs in the country,” he said. “In Gort’s case you’re dealing with an artisan cheese maker.” Mansel Griffiths, director of the Canadian Research Institute for Food Safety at the University of Guelph, agreed the XL Foods’ case received more coverage because of the size of the plant and the size of the recall. He doesn’t think the media is biased against the meat industry. “The XL Foods issue was a national issue…. I think it’s the scale of the distribution rather than the nature of the (food) product.” When it comes to food safety issues, Chapman said one important distinction between Canada and the U.S. is the litigation factor. In the U.S., the villain and victim narrative is usually the main component of the story. “Stories get really big in the U.S. because there’s this sense of I was wronged as an individual consumer. I bought something that wasn’t supposed to make me sick and now I’m going to sue you.” In the B.C. raw milk cheese case, the Canadian media paid little attention to that angle. Instead, reporting focused on the proprietor and her remorse over making people sick. Several media outlets also focused on the former owner of Gort’s Gouda,

who was now working for the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and her role in the investigation of the cheese farm. “It (the reporting) gets away from the incident. The incident is that people ate something and got sick,” Chapman said. In the XL Foods case, the company’s slow response and the government handling of the issue kept the story in the news, Charlebois said. “The public relation strategy, or lack thereof, from the Nilsson brothers (XL Foods’ owners) was very meek.” Chapman concurred, adding that XL Foods evolved into a story about government competence. “It became this political, our government is broken story… and here’s an example of it.” Griffiths, who participated in a Health Canada committee studying the safety of raw milk cheese in the 1990s, said the debate over unpasteurized cheese isn’t new. Research shows that raw milk can be a food safety risk for soft ripened cheese, but not all cheeses. “You can’t do a blanket : no raw milk cheese, it should be banned. You have to dig into the characteristics of the individual cheese,” he said, noting that soft cheeses are a greater risk. “Generally, if the moisture content and the amount of available water in the cheese is really low and there is high acid… those (factors) will lead to a fairly rapid decline in numbers of any pathogens that get into the cheese to start with.” While Canadians are less likely to file civil lawsuits than Americans, Griffiths said there is a trend towards criminal prosecutions in the food safety sector. “That’s something we’ll probably see more of,” Griffiths said. “Where there has been an element of negligence, if you like, there will be a tendency for more criminal prosecutions.”

BIOTECH CROPS | LEGAL PROTECTION

Biotech clause in U.S. farm bill nixed BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A U.S. S enate committee has removed from a Senate spending bill a controversial clause that would have extended legal protections to companies that develop biotech crops and to farmers who produce and sell them. The clause, dubbed by opponents the “Monsanto Protection Act,” would have allowed American farmers to continue growing and selling a genetically modified crop while its safety is being challenged in court. The clause was approved last month by the U.S. House of Representatives and attached as a rider to a bill to fund the U.S. government through Dec. 15. But Maryland senator Barbara Mikulski, chair of the

senate appropriations committee, removed the rider Sept. 26, saying there is no reason to have it included in a temporary spending bill. “I have never supported the Monsanto provision, and I continue to oppose it,” said Mikulski, a Democrat who also supports mandatory labelling of foods that contain genetically modified ingredients. American opponents of GM foods launched a campaign earlier this year to have the provision removed from the spending bill. A coalition of small farmers, organic food advocates, environmentalists and consumer groups had asked the Senate to remove the clause, citing various concerns including the contamination of non-GM crops. The temporary provision was originally passed and became law in

March, 2013 but was due to expire on Sept. 30. It allowed for the cultivation and sale of a genetically modified crop variety, even if U.S. Department of Agriculture approvals were overturned by federal courts and additional safety tests ordered. Farm groups such as the American Soybean Association supported the provision, saying U.S. farmers need an assurance that they will be able to sell the crops they plant and avoid damages caused by prolonged legal challenges related to food safety. Critics argued the provision would short-circuit court reviews of federal agencies and allow biotech companies to delay processes aimed at determining whether GM crops pose health risks to consumers. — With files from Reuters

SOIL | MODIFICATION

Low pH diagnosis a cause for concern American farmers add lime | Canadian farmers often don’t bother to modify the soil’s pH level

If availability of P is very low and the soil pH is also very low, there is a high likelihood that you’ll see a good response to lime.

BY RON LYSENG

STU BRANDT

WINNIPEG BUREAU

FORMER RESEARCHER

Soil naturally becomes more acidic as it ages, gradually losing the capacity to grow crops as the pH drops. The question is, what can be done about it? “It’s a natural process,” said Don Flaten, a soil scientist at the University of Manitoba. “Soils acidify with age as water percolates through them.” Flaten said old soil is quite acidic, creating a major challenge to food production. “In most areas of the Canadian Prairies, we’re lucky to have large reserves of the materials that keep the pH high. We have a lot of buffer capacity to stabilize pH with large reserves of calcium and magnesium,” he said. “But eventually, those reserves will get used up and our soils will gradually become more acidic. Unfortunately, adding lime is very expensive. You’re talking two or three tons per acre of product in some cases.” A good example of older acidic soil is the Milk River Ridge in Alberta and Cypress Hills in Alberta and Saskatchewan, which were missed by the last glaciers. As a result, these areas have older soil than the rest of the Prairies, which experienced glacial cultivation. Western Canada has 6.3 million acres of acidic soil with a pH of six or less, according to Alberta Agriculture. A pH of six is considered to be moderately acidic, while a pH of 5.5 is strongly acidic. Another 8.5 million acres of soil have a pH of 6.1 to 6.5, which is termed slightly acidic. “Crop production on these soils will be reduced in the future as soil acidification continues,” retired soil scientist Ross McKenzie said earlier this year. “In the Peace River region of Alberta and British Columbia, approximately 1.35 million acres of cultivated soils are sufficiently acid to reduce alfalfa growth.” Moving up the soil ladder, a pH of seven is neutral, 7.5 is slightly alkaline, eight is moderately alkaline and 8.5 and higher is strongly alkaline, high in sodium and classified as saline, sodic or alkaline. Flaten said pockets of acidic soil exist in southern, central and northern Alberta, west-central Saskatchewan and southeastern and north-

He said farmers are doing more than their share to accelerate soil acidification. “The nitrogen fertilizers we use are quite acidifying,” he said. “They are gradually lowering the pH of all our cropland.” McKenzie agreed: “For the past decade we have noted that the surface pH has been declining slightly in soils across Alberta that are direct seeded. This is primarily the result of acidification caused by nitrogen and sulphur fertilizers over a period of years being added to soil. With conventional tillage, the upper six inches of soil is constantly being disturbed. Therefore, the acidifying effects of N and S have been less noticeable.” He said a lime application can raise the pH level and rehabilitate acidic soils. Lime products and formula are available that can be used to raise soil pH, Flaten added. Retired researcher Stu Brandt from the Scott Research Farm in northwestern Saskatchewan said acidic soil on the Prairies isn’t a new discovery. He said the station conducted research into liming acidic soil in the 1980s, with plots on the research farm, strips in farmers’ fields and trials at Loon Lake on the northern fringe of farmland. Brandt said the lime did not show a significant response except in the plots where high rates were applied or when lime was applied to soil with low pH and low phosphorous levels. “A lot of that lime research was tied to increasing the availability of phosphorus,” Brandt said. “If availability of P is very low and the soil pH is also very low, there is a high likelihood that you’ll see a good response to lime. We did some liming on the grey-wooded soils up in the Loon Lake area, but the lime didn’t show much response because those soils are relatively high in phosphates.” He said the Scott research should be factored into any plans to push corn and soybeans further to the northwest on the Prairies. “Corn, especially, is a very high phosphorus user, so if you put corn and soybeans on land with a low pH, you might find that you need to apply lime.”

western Manitoba. “There are different kinds of acidic soils, depending on their background and how they developed,” Flaten said. The wooded soil band starts in Minnesota and roughly follows the

parkland region from southeastern Manitoba, across the northern farming regions of Saskatchewan and into northwestern Alberta. “These are the gray wooded soils, forested lands that have been cleared for farming. These soils were formed

from acidic leaves, needles and rotting wood,” he said. “In central Alberta, we have the acidic black soils, and we have acidic black soils in Manitoba. Up at Scott, (Sask.), we have the acidic dark brown soils.”

SOIL ACIDITY | MANAGEMENT

Soil acidity: is the culprit nitrogen or zero till? Levels of pH are gradually dropping where nitrogen is applied STORIES BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

Fields that become acidic almost overnight aren’t science fiction. Corn land around Bismarck, North Dakota, has become acidic in just a few years. It’s due to high rates of nitrogen fertilizer in combination with zero till practices, said local independent agricultural consultant Bob Amstrup. “We are creating an artificially low pH problem because of the way we farm,” he said. “Some of my clients have fields here in the central part of the state that have developed a very low pH in recent years. They have numbers down around 5.8 in a couple fields. It’s not overly alarming yet, but it indicates a trend toward acidity.” Bismarck is in south-central North Dakota, approximately straight south from the Saskatchewan-Manitoba border. Amstrup said pH numbers are generally high by nature east toward the Red River Valley, so acidity shouldn’t be an issue, even with zero till and

high rates of nitrogen fertilizer. However, it’s a different picture west of there, on the true prairie soil, which is less tolerant of artificial inputs and must be managed more carefully. “One thing I’m sure of. Since the advent of no till in this area, we’ve seen pH numbers gradually drop over the last 20 years approximately,” said Amstrup. Such a change in only two decades is drastic considering that the soils are millions of years old, he added. “We’re leaving all that crop residue on the surface. As it breaks down, the residues have acidic compounds. That’s true of every crop we grow,” he said. “The pH number measures acidity, and our pH numbers are dropping. You can almost say we’re creating an artificial acidic problem.” He said the problem is easily cured by working the soil black with a chisel plow. The pH would shoot back up to the previous normal level within a couple of years. “But of course, if you did that, everything you’ve gained from years

of no till gets thrown out the window,” he said. “Your organic matter is destroyed. Erosion becomes an issue again. Moisture retention becomes an issue again. All your efforts get thrown out the window. You have to start over from scratch. So I’ve recommended to some of my clients that if they continue no tilling corn with high rates of N, then they’ll have to consider lime. That usually involves a massive volume of product and a considerable cost.” Other solutions include less corn in the rotation or lower target yields with lower nitrogen rates. Amstrup said a producer planning to expand his corn acreage may want to put lime in the farm’s longterm budget. “But the larger issue I have in the back of my mind is the wisdom of taking a plant like maize that originates in central Mexico and breeding it for an area as far north as Bismarck,” he said.

Soil reclamation projects are often driven by high land and crop values, and pH is not always enough of a problem to warrant amendments. | FILE PHOTO

LOW pH | LIME

Adding lime not feasible on large scale Using lime to raise pH levels and rehabilitate acidic soil provides a major benefit for some crops but doesn’t affect others. Some of the top canola growing areas around Edmonton have been hit hard by clubroot. In addition to the usual list of tools used in fighting such a disease, researchers at the University of Alberta wanted to see if raising soil pH might help the struggling plants. They conducted soil liming trials on canola fields in 2007 and 2008 in conjunction with Alberta Agriculture, Agriculture Canada and the Canola Council of Canada, said Steve Stelkov, one of the U of A scientists working on the project. “Lime contributed somewhat to a

reduction in the severity of clubroot but not to the extent that it was economically viable to do the treatment,” Stelkov said. “The plants looked better, but there was not much yield gain. It’s certainly no magic bullet.” Researchers did notice that clubroot appears to be more severe in naturally acidic soil with low pH, but the benefit of raising the pH level with lime was not as strong as they would have expected, based on the literature and reports from other areas. Stelkov said there may be little relationship between clubroot and soil acidity. The team found severe clubroot in fields with no sign of acidity and pH levels as high as 7.4.

“Clubroot is those fields is a result of short canola rotations,” he said. “It has nothing to do with acidity. When we looked at the data, there was only a very small correlation between pH and clubroot. Besides, liming the soil is very expensive. It’s uneconomical to try to improve soil pH to the extent that it would have a benefit, especially on large acreage crops like canola. “However, it may be economically viable on smaller plot crops such as vegetables.” Next week, The Western Producer’s Production section will feature a project using waste lime from a municipal water treatment plant to raise the pH level of potato land.

BIOENERGY CROPS | TECHNOLOGY

Seeding innovation could spur biomass crops The biograss revolution | It’s about energy, fibre, feed and biodegradable products BY JEFFREY CARTER FREELANCE WRITER

LEAMINGTON, Ont. — Crops like miscanthus and sugar cane, which involve planting part of the plant rather than planting seed, can now be drilled like corn and soybeans. According to Dean Tiessen and Paul Carver at New Energy Farms, their artificial seed technology reduces establishment costs and shortens the time the crops require to reach full yield potential. “Their work has the potential to make these crops more attractive to farmers…. If you can plant something like miscanthus for $500 an acre,that’s fantastic, and if you can get 90 percent germination (with the artificial seeds) that’s fantastic as well,” said Tom Voigt, a researcher at the University of Illinois who’s been working with energy crops since 2002. Voigt was among the researchers, farmers and entrepreneurs from around the world who attended New Energy Farms’ field day here Sept. 20.

One of the latest innovations at New Energy Farms has been the development of a technology that allows crops that are reproduced through vegetative propagation to be drilled like corn or soybeans. The technology allows high density, precise planting, allowing crops to yield full potential in half the time required using rhizomes. | RUSSELL CARTER PHOTO The cylindrical planting units, less than half the size of hockey pucks, are

New Energy Farms holds patents and intellectual property rights and is keeping details about the process quiet. The story of New Energy Farms began in 2006. That’s when Tiessen began working with miscanthus, an energy crop he planned to grow as biomass to fuel his family’s greenhouses. That remains a part of their plans but now they’ve found more lucrative markets and they’re working with other species, notably arundo donax, Napier grass and sugar cane. In the past, Tissen propagated miscanthus by working rhizomes, or rootstock, into the ground. The company then developed a plug-plant process, which was an improvement but still costly. Tiessen and Carver say artificial seed technology is big step forward and may become the core of their business. The artificial seeds, which can include biostimulants and insecticide in their coating, allow the plugs to be stored in a cold room for several months while maintaining a a germination rate of around 90 percent. “We’ve been able to store sugar cane successfully for six months and miscanthus for even longer.” The storage capability allows farmers a broader window for planting. With sugar cane, for example, growers in the southern US can only plant in late summer and early fall because the available plant material deteriorates after that. The technology also allows for precise drilling and high density plantations. With miscanthus, Tiessen and Carver are looking for yields that approach 100 percent of their potential in as little as two years, less than half the time required with rhizomes. Visitors to the field day were shown a three-year-old stand of miscanthus giganteus established with plugs. The crop is expected to yield more than nine dry tonnes per acre when

harvested next spring. “The thing about biomass crops is collecting as much of the sun’s energy as possible, as soon as possible,” Tiessen said. Miscanthus is the primary bioenergy crop grown by New Energy Farms. Once established, it requires little or no fertilization or other soil amendments for years, or decades when it is spring harvested for use as a dry biomass fuel. That’s because the leaves that contain much of the nutrients fall to the ground and the prodigious underground rooting system is designed to store energy. New Energy Farms now has 1,000 acres of miscanthus in production, primarily miscanthus giganteus, which appears to be the highest yielding cultivar for the region. Others cultivars grown include their own cultivar, cold-tolerant miscanthus nagara. New Energy Farms is selling miscanthus as animal bedding and for the substrate used for mushroom production, which are higher value markets. If the natural gas prices return to previous highs, it’s likely the crop will again become an attractive as a source biomass heat. The market opportunities for arundo donax are similar to those for miscanthus but the crop has greater yield potential. Cut twice a year in Ontario, yields could approach 20 dry tonnes per acre. Napier grass is unlikely to survive Canadian winters but has potential as forage in the southeastern U.S. and Ontario if planted as an annual using the artificial seed technology. Napier grass is widely grown in tropical and subtropical regions as a high protein animal feed. Tiessen and Carver say their business has potential to annually seed 50,000 acres using the artificial seed technology. Carver said a realistic target for 2014 may be around 5,000 acres.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The market is still the biggest barrier by farâ&#x20AC;Ś. The market hopefully can be developed with the feedstock supply,â&#x20AC;? Tiessen said. At Ohio State University, Michael Sword is among the researchers examining miscanthus as an energy crop and as a means to rehabilitate marginal soils. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to grow it on reclaimed ground where coal was strip-mined. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re coupling that with another technology, which is solid state digestion for biogas production.â&#x20AC;? Effluent from the biogas production is to be returned to the miscanthus plantation, creating a closed loop nutrient cycle. In Ontario, two companies are looking at miscanthus for the production of moulded consumer paper products. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re investigating all types of materials that are biodegradable.

Joseph sees potential for Canadian plants to process eight to 16 tonnes of miscanthus daily. Joseph travelled to the field day with representatives of CKF Inc., the makers of Chinet plates and other moulded products, including egg cartons and the cup carriers used by Tim Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

CALGARY STAMPEDE | COMPETITION

Stampede to review rules Blood testing protocol | Policy examination comes after case of disqualified steer BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

The Calgary Stampede will review its steer show rules following the controversial disqualification of a winning steer after it tested positive for drugs. “We would consider some ongoing enhancements for this competition including automatically testing both the grand and reserve champion,” said Stampede corporate communications director Kurt Kadatz after the Stampede’s Agriculture Review Panel upheld the Stampede’s original disqualification of a steer owned by Royden Anderson of Didsbury, Alta., and Riley Chalack of Carstairs, Alta. The Stampede also plans to review its protocols on how long to keep blood samples. Samples drawn from the top two steers were sent to Maxxam Analytics’s equine blood testing laboratory in Burnaby, B.C. The samples were destroyed before they could be retested in another laboratory. Alastair Cribb, dean of the University of Calgary’s Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, and a consultant to the Stampede on their appeal panel, said the Stampede needs to improve its blood testing rules. Cribb said in human drug testing there are A samples and B samples. If the A sample is positive, then the B sample can be retested. But the blood sample taken from

the winning steer was destroyed before the owner had the option of retesting. “No doubt they have to review this,” said Cribb. The Stampede turned to Cribb for clarification around the drug testing procedures during the appeal process. The dean said an equine lab is capable of determining the presence of a drug but not the amount. Finding a drug in the animal could have simply been bad luck, but finding two gave the Stampede reason for suspicion. Kadatz said the Stampede is not claiming a specific concentration of drug, only that a drug was present. Patricia Dowling, professor of Veterinary Clinical Pharmacology with the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon, said she does not believe bovine blood samples tested using horse samples would yield valid results. “This cross-species analysis is completely unacceptable,” Dowling wrote in her paper to the appeal panel. “I am suspicious they didn’t give (Cribb) all the information.” Dowling is also co-director of a national food safety database and an expert witness for horse organizations such as Equine Canada and the Canadian Pari-Mutuel Agenc y where she has helped to establish drug-testing protocol. Dowling said bovine samples sent

This steer, owned by Riley Chalack and Royden Anderson, was disqualified from competition at this year’s Calgary Stampede. | MARY MACARTHUR PHOTO to equine labs at other shows have been tossed out of court. “This has happened before where they use a horse assay. It does not fly in a court of law,” she said. “It’s a real shame. I don’t want to go up against the dean. I will respectfully disagree, but I have the weight of science behind my facts.” Veterinarian Roy Lewis said the ruling makes his job as steer show veterinarian almost impossible. Instead of following the Canadian Food and Inspection Agency rules for drug withdrawal times and maximum drug residue levels, he needs to be concerned about giving show animals any drugs. “It means you can’t treat with anything. You don’t know what the level of testing is at, even if the drug has an approved withdrawal time,” said Lewis, of Millarville, Alta.

“This makes a mockery out of testing. Technically the animal is almost never free of drugs if they have been exposed in their lifetime,” said Lewis. The steer tested positive for ibuprofen and flunixin, the active ingredient in Banamine, an anti-inflammatory medication. Originally the owners said they gave Banamine to the steer on the recommendation of the Calgary Stampede veterinarian. Later, they said they never gave the animal Banamine during the show, but only sometime before the event. Stampede agriculture director Max Fritz said it is up to the owners to manage their health and drug protocol. “We’re about detection and those animals being presented to the show have to be free and clear of any drugs show day. We realize the information

that has been provided to us over the past six weeks it has been inconsistent. They suggested they didn’t give any drugs to the steer at the show. Regardless if it’s off farm, here at the show, they’re fully accountable for the management of that steer.” Anderson said he is disappointed and said the decision is a concern for everyone showing animals at future Calgary Stampede steer competitions when an animal can be disqualified for trace amounts of drugs, possibly given months before the show. The Stampede will make a decision before Oct. 31 on further sanctions for Anderson and Chalack. Fritz said the rules are clear. If a substance was found in an animal, the owners would be disqualified and banned from future competitions at the Calgary Stampede.

BEEF | PRODUCTION

A&W will look outside of Canada for beef produced without growth promotants BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

A&W Canada is now committed to hormone-free beef, but its Mama and Papa burgers might not come from Canadian cattle. I n S e p t e m b e r, A & W C a n a d a announced that all of its burgers will be made with beef produced without added hormones or steroids. With the decision, A&W becomes the first national burger chain to go hormone-free. To satisfy its new marketing campaign, known as “Better Beef for a Better Burger,” A&W Canada will buy its beef from ranches in Canada, the U.S., Australia and possibly other countries. “We purchase as much beef as pos-

sible from Canadian farmers, but there simply isn’t enough available to satisfy our requirements for beef raised without added hormones or steroids,” said Susan Senecal, A&W Food Services of Canada chief marketing officer, in an email. “We currently source beef from farms in Western Canada and continue to work with the Canadian beef industry to seek out new ranches across the country.” In 2003, following the BSE crisis, A&W said it would buy 100 percent Canadian beef to supply its Canadian restaurants. Spring Creek Ranch in Vegreville, Alta., is listed on A&W’s website as a supplier of hormone-free beef to the burger chain. A Spring Creek spokesperson said demand for beef free of growth

promotants is greater than supply. To meet escalating demand, the ranch, which operates a feedlot, is actively seeking beef producers that raise cattle without the use of hormones or antibiotics. “There is a lot of interest in our program from ranchers across Western Canada; some people are already raising cattle according to our protocol but without selling into our program they aren’t gett i n g p a i d a p re m i u m f o r t h e i r calves. Others simply need to make small changes in order to fit the protocol and realize a premium price for their cattle.” Gina Teel, Canadian Cattlemen’s Association communication manager, said the CCA doesn’t know the percentage of Canadian cattle raised

without growth promotants. “We don’t have the ability to track those stats and as far as I’ve been able to find out, nobody does.” Ron Glaser, vice-president of corporate affairs and operations for Canada Beef, said it’s quite possible that there isn’t sufficient hormone free beef in Canada to meet A&W’s needs. However, since Canada exports a large chunk of its beef, several niche beef markets in the country might be underserved. “When you hear one company say, ‘Well, we can’t source what we need,’ that might be true. But it’s a larger question of supply and demand in the marketplace and what is the market actually demanding,” he said. “Right now these are typically niche offerings… it repre-

sents a relatively small amount of total production. That is a reflection of demand.” Looking forward, if demand for hormone-free beef intensifies, Canada’s cattle producers will adjust accordingly, Glaser said. “The industry is pretty fluid in its ability to meet those needs. If producers feel they are being properly rewarded, they can change over fairly quickly to these other types of production systems... The market will eventually speak to producers.” Teel said Canadian cattle ranchers are free to choose production practices that satisfy a particular marketing objective and food service companies are always developing campaigns to differentiate their product.

Test feed to ensure selenium at safe levels BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Following a long-term study into selenium deficiency in horses, a University of Kentucky researcher is recommending owners read feed labels carefully and test for the trace mineral in homegrown feed. “The first thing they should do is find out what the selenium status in their local area is, so that they will have an understanding if they are in a marginal area, a deficient area or an adequate area,” said Laurie Lawrence of the University of Kentucky. Selenium levels vary between regions, so owners who have moved to a new location and feed animals in pastures or from locally produced grain should consider the soil composition, she said. The mineral helps protect against oxidative damage to the animal’s muscles and is especially a concern in active animals. “Generally speaking, areas where you have a lot of rainfall and acidic soil, those tend to be low in selenium, because selenium leaches out of the soil,” said Julia Montgomery of the University of Saskatchewan’s Western College of Veterinary Medicine, who has also studied selenium. Arid climates with alkaline soils can have the opposite problem, she added. A selenium deficiency can show itself as white muscle disease in foals and calves but is harder to detect in adults. Too much of the mineral is toxic. “And there’s a pretty small margin of safety,” she said. “So if a horse lives in an area where it’s not quite clear exactly which of these categories it would fall into, my recommendation would be to test the selenium and decide whether it needs to be supplemented or not.” Researchers in Kentucky studied the influence of selenium on horses’ immune systems by feeding a group of animals unsupplemented local feed to deplete levels of the mineral in their diets. The area tends to be low in selenium. Lawrence said the horses’ selenium status fell to low levels after four to five months of local feed. The animals then received supplements. The recommended intake of the mineral is 0.1 milligrams of selenium per kilogram of dry matter. She said it took two months to get the selenium levels back to the normal range. “It doesn’t happen in a week. It doesn’t happen in 10 days,” said Lawrence. “It takes a fairly long period of time.” Montgomery said she has had success using a selenized fertilizer on pastures. “If you have just a pasture pet or a recreational horse that doesn’t need any concentrate, that just eats hay or grass and the forage that they have available is low, that would be a way to supplement these horses,” she said. “Or they could just use a trace mineral block.”

HORSES | FEVER

Abundance of flies spreads pigeon fever Ten horses affected | Producers should use spray to control numbers and fly sheets to prevent bites BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

More than 10 horses in southern Alberta have been diagnosed with pigeon fever this fall, an illness sonamed for the common symptom of swellings in the chest. Dr. Kelsey Brandon of Claresholm Veterinary Service said the clinic has treated several animals and it has also been diagnosed in horses from the Fort Macleod and Lethbridge areas. Though not usually fatal, the fever results in abscesses that have to

mature before they can be lanced, drained and regularly flushed while healing. “We give (the horses) pain medications while they have the abscesses and they’re maturing,” said Brandon. Ultrasound tests reveal the proper time for lancing and treatment, which is done under sedation. Pigeon fever is caused by a bacterium spread by flies. When the flies bite horses, they can transmit the illness. Horse to horse spread is possible but rare because it involves direct transfer of pus or exudate from one horse to an open sore of another.

Early swelling can be confused with results from bruising. Symptoms can appear on one or both sides of the chest, with swelling also common on the belly, neck and head. “Some horses do get sick from it and some do get internal abscesses. About eight percent of the horses that get external abscesses get internal abscesses and of those eight percent that get internal abscesses, 30 to 40 percent of those are fatal,” Brandon said. This year was considered a bad fly year for livestock. Brandon said she recalls a few

cases in the region several years ago but the illness is far more common in the southern and western United States. Prairie winters tend to limit survival of the bacteria and current risk has been reduced by cooler weather. “It’s usually a late summer, early fall thing when there’s lots of flies and its dryer out.” Prevention involves fly control, use of fly spray, masks and sheets on horses, and wearing gloves when handling horses with draining abscesses.

BOVINE RESPIRATORY DISEASE | PREVENTION

Determine risk level of feeder calves to prevent disease ANIMAL HEALTH

ROY LEWIS, DVM

any factors must be considered to minimize bovine respiratory disease when feeding young calves. Knowing the calves’ weaning times, distance transported and vaccination and health history, as well as upcoming weather conditions, will

help determine the level of risk. Each pen or group of calves needs to have a risk category ranging from low risk to ultra-high risk to determine how they could be handled. The overall goal is to prevent a disease outbreak and high death loss by implementing management changes that will achieve top performance. Determining risk level ahead of time helps fight the pathogens to which the calves may be exposed. The final step is making the economic calculation between preventive costs, such as vaccines, labour and metaphylactic antibiotics, versus treatment and potentially higher death loss. As with most things in farming this is a gamble, and there

are always unknowns that can blindside us. Many factors increase risk when bringing in calves or feeding your own calves, and they must be managed as successfully as possible. Ask yourself what management changes are needed to mitigate or minimize the risk. High-risk calves for developing BRD are generally considered those presenting with one or more of these points: • They have been commingled, either at the auction market or at home. Avoid adding more calves once a group has settled, and try to fill a pen as quickly as possible from as few original owners as possible. • Extended transport times, where

calves become stressed and dehydrated. Stress originates mainly from loading and unloading, but ultra-high risk can also result if the calves are transported over significant distances, such as when they are brought in from another province. The more local we can source cattle, the better, but it’s not always possible because calves are often raised and fed in two different parts of the country. • Bad weather or wide temperature swings can create severe stress. Watching the weather channel may help, but you need to buy when you can. These temperature fluctuations are more likely with greater distances travelled.

• Procedures such as castration, dehorning and branding, which are done when the calves arrive, all have their stressors. The cattle industry is under scrutiny from an animal welfare perspective for these procedures, and in most cases castration is done far ahead of weaning. Polled bulls are eliminating horns, or the calves are dehorned early. Dehorning in the feedlot generally involves tipping the few horns that are left. If branding is required, minimize the size and number of characters as much as possible and minimize stress with pain killers and anti-inflammatory drugs . • Calves recently weaned with no or poor vaccination histories. The old preconditioned programs are ideal, in which calves have already been weaned for a month. It’s best to have protection from as many respiratory pathogens as possible. This would include the viral as well as the bacterial components of the BRD complex. Don’t forget the clostridials and histophilus in your vaccination protocols. • Lightweight calves or those that are nutritionally compromised or parasitized may also carry an additional level of risk. I think calves less than 400 pounds would be considered ultra-high risk. Low risk calves are essentially your own calves, which are preimmunized and weaned at home into a situation where they know where feed and water are located. Weaning would occur in older, heavier calves and in good weather with either fence line or some other type of soft method. It is ideal to remove the cows from the calves and that they are familiar with the ration that they will be fed. However, pulls for respiratory disease can climb even in these situations, and producers reach a point where treating them with antibiotics may become necessary to thwart an outbreak. The problem with high-risk calves is what to do when you get them. Herd veterinarians will have a protocol for what they believe is best, which may vary pen to pen. Most would consider giving the necessary vaccinations and processing and covering with metaphylactic antibiotics. The newer macrolide antibiotics last a long time in the lungs, and they are a different family from our treatment antibiotics. The label usually states that it is for the control of BRD or to use in cattle at high risk of developing BRD. This is where knowing the risk level of calves is critical. Feedlot veterinarians can reduce BRD incidents by assessing pens and using appropriate vaccinations. Roy Lewis works as a technical services veterinarian with Merck Animal Health in Alberta.

BEEF | PROMOTION

Canada Beef chair forced to do more with less Government funding, check-off dollars down | The organization could see its promotion budget cut by $4.5 million by 2015 BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Chuck MacLean wears two hats when he comes to the Canada Beef Inc. board table. He is chair of the beef promotion company but is also a successful rancher and feedlot operator from southern Alberta who upholds a business philosophy of constant improvement. “In my world, your biggest competitor is yourself. We challenge ourselves to be better than we were yesterday,” he said. Canada Beef has been operating since July 2011, following a merger of the Beef Information Centre and the Canada Beef Export Federation. It collects the $1 per head producer checkoff as well as additional private and government support. The money is split between Canada Beef and the Beef Cattle Research Council. The organization’s mandate is to promote beef and encourage more sales domestically and globally. It does not handle policy matters. “At Canada Beef, our mandate is to sell to the highest value customer who is loyal to our product. We look to loyalty and quality and quantity,” MacLean said. The organization has 31 projects and leverages $3.2 million of partner funding to obtain extra value from selling beef to Canada, the United States, Mexico, Hong Kong, China, Japan, European Union and Middle East. Beef imports frustrate Canada The U.S. remains the best customer next to the domestic market, but exports have fallen slightly because of country-of-origin labelling rules, food safety scares and too few cattle to fill the orders. U.S. exports of beef to Canada have grown by 15 percent in the last year, which frustrates Canadian producers. Markets tend to flow north and south rather than east and west. More American beef is moving into the east because retailers and the food service cannot get enough Canadian beef to fill demand for certain higher value products. As well, feedlots and packing plants are not running at capacity because there are not enough cattle to keep them full and they cannot get enough qualified workers. Canada Beef’s financial shortfalls could worsen over time. It wrote a business plan that promises lean operations with a smaller staff, less travel and more work done over the telephone and through webinars and conference calls. “It is a struggle,” he said. “Right from the time Canada Beef

77.5 THE PERCENTAGE OF CANADIAN BEEF EXPORTS SHIPPED TO UNITED STATES

was formed, the two previous organizations, which were BIC and CBEF, our budget became short $5 million overnight from what those two companies combined were getting.” Less government funding is available, and checkoffs paid by the provinces are declining because fewer cattle are sold. Ontario and Quebec claw back some of the money for internal programs. “It appears we could be a million and change short next year, and the following year under Growing Forward 2 we could be $4 to $4.5 million short. There is no way in my humble opinion that we can function unless we come up with another source,” he said. This year’s budget is around $12 million. A regulatory change in July allowed Canada to collect a levy on imported products, but it is not designated for marketing Canadian beef. It will bring in $600,000 to $800,000 annually. Importers will be expected to collect and pay the levy starting in the first quarter of January 2014. “That import levy is not going to make up for what we need to do,” he said. The controversy over the clawback was addressed at Canada Beef ’s annual forum held in Calgary Sept. 19-20. The provinces are not eligible for additional federal funding that would benefit the entire industry because they use the money for local promotion programs. In the future, those provinces must provide detailed reports of what the money was used for and what the results were, said Jennifer MacDonald of Canada Beef ’s governance committee. “The provinces that are clawing back are responsible for reporting back on how that money was spent,” she said.

Even though there will be less money, the organization will continue to seek value with the resources it has. One initiative is forming a centre of excellence for product development and testing. Beef demonstrations at the site will show potential customers the benefits of Canadian beef rather than taking them on tours of processing plants. The concept will be similar to the Canadian International Grains Institute program in Winnipeg.

At Canada Beef, our mandate is to sell to the highest value customer who is loyal to our product. We look to loyalty and quality and quantity. CHUCK MACLEAN CANADA BEEF INC. CHAIR

Ag R&D fails to spark investment Wary of sector | Venture capitalists need help understanding how to invest in agricultural technology, says fund manager SASKATOON NEWSROOM

CALGARY — Investment money is pouring into agriculture but precious little is spilling over into innovation, says a venture capital firm. The run-up in commodity prices driven by soaring global demand for food has caused a dramatic spike in investor interest in agriculture. Pension funds and insurance companies are investing heavily in farmland, farm operations and agriculture infrastructure. “Those groups are chasing the real assets,” Ronald Meeusen told delegates attending the Agricultural Biotechnology International Conference held in Calgary Sept. 15-18. “But when you get to technology it stops.” When Meeusen started Cultivian Ventures LLC in 2008 there were 850 active venture capital funds operating in the United States. “The number that focused exclusively on food and agriculture technology was, depending how you define it, either two or zero, which was stunning to me,” he said. One impetus for all the new investment in agriculture was a 2012 report from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations stating that the world would need to produce 100 percent more food by 2050. The FAO report went on to say that 70 percent of that increased food

production would have to come from new technologies. “If the 100 percent number is driving this massive investment shouldn’t that 70 percent (number) be driving investment in new technologies?” said Meeusen. “The simple answer is no. It has hit a real roadblock.” For every 10 or 20 deserving projects one will get funded. There has been a big uptick in corporate investment by seed technology companies but the private sector is steering clear of agricultural technology. Meeusen thinks it is partly a cultural thing. The general public still thinks of agriculture as a collection of small family operations. He came to that conclusion after searching an online picture database for an image to run on Cultivian’s web site. “I typed in ‘high technology and agriculture’ and it came back with zero hits. Zero out of seven million pieces of artwork,” he said.

He simplified the search by using the words ‘technology and agriculture’ and it came back with pictures of Eli Whitney’s cotton gin. Another knock against the sector has been the bad investment experience in agriculture’s clean technology industry. Investors lost a bundle on companies like Amyris. But the biggest reason for investor hesitation is that they lack the skill set to properly assess investments in agriculture technology. A person with a masters of business administration degree understands buying farmland or a dairy operation because it involves the familiar process of analyzing profit and loss and cash flow statements. Investments in agricultural technology are made at the pre-revenue stage. There are no financial statements to pore over. Instead, investors need to know the target market and the unmet needs of that market. “You really need to understand an industry deeply to know what’s missing, not just what’s there,” said Meeusen. It took two years and knocking on over 200 doors for Cultivian to raise the $34 million for its first fund. It was a tough slog even for a guy who had led the first field trial of a GM crop trait and helped develop some of the world’s first insect and herbicide resistant corn hybrids. Despite the tough sell, Meeusen remains optimistic because there are

strong signs of investor interest in the sector. Once his first fund closed he started receiving calls from other venture capital firms with $2 to $3 billion under management wanting to co-invest with him. “These were big names and they were calling us. The message was the same. It was, ‘we’ve been watching (agriculture) for a while. We’d like to get involved but we recognize it’s different,’” he said. Meeusen started keeping a log of the calls. He is now up to 48. There is no doubt that funds are eager to invest in agricultural innovation but they need somebody to help them navigate through the sector. He believes agricultural universities have a role to play in that regard. They have a track record of forming relationships with seed and grain companies to license innovations. But they have done a poor job of reaching out to venture capitalists to help form start-up companies. Meeusen said some of these firms manage hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars that could be invested in agricultural technologies. He also urged scientists attending ABIC 2013 to consider moving over to the “dark side” because the financial industry desperately needs their expertise. “I’d encourage you not to dismiss the possibility of a career shift and starting to work with some of these venture funds. We really need their dollars,” said Meeusen.

FINANCIAL PLANNING | REAPING THE REWARDS

A bumper crop puts money in the bank; now what? other hand, it may be a great opportunity to upgrade certain pieces. â&#x20AC;˘ Paying down debt may be an option. If this is a priority, you can focus on repaying debt with the highest interest rate, or with the highest cashflow commitment. Sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a better business decision to pay off a loan with a higher annual payment (principal and interest) but with a lower interest rate. â&#x20AC;˘ Succession planning is something to consider, even if actual succession may be years away. Basically, what can you do at this time to really benefit a future succession plan?

PERSPECTIVES ON MANAGEMENT

TERRY BETKER

ack in June I wrote the crop could be a bit late but that it may be off to a good start. I further commented, â&#x20AC;&#x153;it may be fair to say that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not lost yet and that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s some potential.â&#x20AC;? For a lot of you, this has turned out to be quite the understatement. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had numerous farmers from a wide range of Western Canada tell me that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the best crop theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever had. For those of you who have only recently started farming, you might want to talk to a couple of more seasoned farmers to find out how special this year may actually be. It takes a lot of work to get it in the bin ... but then what? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still work to do. Careful thought is needed to get the most benefit for the business and the family out of the crop. Managing the marketplace will have the greatest impact on the potential benefit and should be your top priority. Determine what the crop is conser-

This will give you the value of the inventory that you can use to plan. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to work from a conservative value. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen scenarios in the past where farmers had a really good year and watched while the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;profitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; eroded in the marketplace. This can be really frustrating. Worse, if decisions are made based on higher prices than what is actually received when grain is sold, you can end up in unfavourable situations. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also important to talk to your accountant as soon as possible to plan for managing the potential income tax implications. Time can

be a huge advantage when it comes to developing and implementing tax strategies. Given that you do have marketing and tax management plans in place, it will help to set priorities for optimizing the benefit from the crop. Priorities can be separated into business and personal/family.

PERSONAL, FAMILY PRIORITIES â&#x20AC;˘ You may want to simply spend some of the profit. Get some enjoyment or return on the personal investment that has been made in the business: take a trip, invest in the house or recreation property, as examples. â&#x20AC;˘ Personal retirement plans. Different from succession planning for the

business, what can you do that may benefit your own retirement, even if it may be years out? â&#x20AC;˘ Consider management development programs and resources. They require a significant financial investment. Is it a good time to invest in performance and business management development strategies? â&#x20AC;˘ Education for your children is an option. Costs associated with education are high, especially if it requires moving away from the parental home. Could some of the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prosperity be set aside for this? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really good feeling that comes from harvesting a bumper crop â&#x20AC;&#x201D; reward for all the work thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been done. With careful planning and priority setting, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible to extend those good feelings to realize a wide range of benefits that can ultimately come from the crop.
