PBR rules undergo federal review Plant breeders’ rights | Industry would welcome regulatory standards BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

This is the 15th year the Beef Supreme Challenge has been held at Canadian Western Agribition, where winners of the major beef shows from across North America are eligible to show. This year, bulls and females from 12 breeds competed, which made up about 100 head of cattle. | ROBIN BOOKER PHOTO AGRIBITION | LIVESTOCK SHOW

Beauty is the beast at Agribition

Ottawa is contemplating legislation that would allow seed companies to collect royalties on harvested grain. Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz told members of the Canadian Seed Trade Association Nov. 13 that Ottawa is considering changes to current plant breeders’ rights legislation that would clear the way for the adoption of regulatory standards known as UPOV 91. Under UPOV 91 standards, farmers would retain the right to plant farm-saved seed. SEE RULE CHANGE, PAGE 2

Prize-winning cattle | Charolais female and Red Angus bull take supreme championship CALGARY BUREAU

REGINA — A red and white theme with an international flair dominated this year’s premier livestock show, which wrapped up the exhibition season for some of North America’s top purebred beef cattle. Canadian Western Agribition’s RBC Beef Supreme champions were a Red Angus bull from Alberta and a Charolais pair from Texas. Each received $10,000 and other prizes at Agribition’s grand finale held Nov. 16 in Regina. The Charolais female, OBG Nancy 028 with a calf named CK Eileen 212, came from Keaton McConathy of Angleton, Texas. The pair was also the grand champion Charolais at Farmfair International in Edmonton the previous week. The Red Angus bull was the entry of Redrich Farms in Forestburg, Alta. The two-year-old was also grand champion Red Angus from Farmfair and the Olds Fall Classic in Olds, Alta.

The show has run for 15 years and invites grand champion females and bulls from across North America to compete before a panel of five judges to select the best of the best. Mark Kelley showed the supreme female. He manages the cattle for the McConathy family and has been coming to Agribition for years. The family has bought Canadian genetics from breeders such as Dennis Serhienko of Maymont, Sask., in the past and follows shows such as the supreme with their annual display of top cattle. The family ranches near DallasFort Worth and raises 700 to 800 cows, which include Charolais, Limousin, Simmental, Chianina and Brahman. They also have a major rice operation. This cow has three national champions in its pedigree and will stay in Canada at Northline Angus in Alberta, where McConathy’s fiancé, Jade Schneider, will look after it until it is time to attend the National Western Stock Show in Denver in January. The heifer calf will be shown in

Denver, and the dam is entering a flush program. Charolais perform well in southernTexas and are valued for crossbreeding to produce smoky calves for the club calf circuit as well as beef production. “They are good crosses on everything,” said McConathy. He felt competitive going into the ring before the judges at Regina, but he did not want to get cocky. “You hope and you watch their body language, but sometimes you are wrong,” he said. Tyler Dietrich, 18, led out his family’s bull entry, which has been on a winning streak this fall. The win was an overwhelming experience for his parents, Bill and Tracy Dietrich. They had a grand champion female that made the top 10 at a past Agribition, so winning this time around affirmed that their Red Angus program is on the right track. The bull was bought as a youngster from Wilbar Farms in Saskatchewan. It is retiring back to the family’s For-

estburg ranch after this show to breed cows through artificial insemination. “He’ll go the rest of his life as a herd bull at our place,” said Tyler. They have 170 registered Red Angus, 35 commercial SimmentalRed Angus cows and 15 purebred Simmentals. The family is active in the Angus business, including a recent visit for Tyler to the World Angus Forum in New Zealand. He was a silver medalist for the Canadian team in the international youth judging competition. Next fall he returns to post secondary education, and will pick up his football career with the Edmonton Huskies. SEE A STORY ON THE SUPREME WINNERS, PAGE 3.

Plant breeding rule change However, seed companies that develop seed varieties would be permitted, under some circumstances, to collect royalties at any stage of production, including on harvested grain produced from farm-saved seed. Ritz suggested in Winnipeg last week that legislation supporting UPOV 91 could be in place as early as August. In a subsequent interview with The Western Producer, he said no definitive timelines have been set for adoption. “Legislation is being contemplated but at the end of the day, discussions are paramount,” Ritz said. “If we’re going to make these changes, I’d like to see them in place for the next crop year, but we have not predisposed discussions … that at the end of the day will be at industry’s direction.… We want to make sure that industry is going to get the results that they’re looking for and we want to make sure that we discuss all of the issues leading up to any legislation that may be tabled later.” The Canadian seed industry has been promoting the adoption of UPOV 91 standards for some time. CSTA leaders say Canada must update its intellectual property regime and provide seed companies with more opportunities to collect revenues from innovative seed products. Proponents say UPOV 91 would encourage investment by seed companies, support the development of new varieties and give Canadian farmers access to better seeds with higher yield potential and improved agronomic performance. UPOV 91 standards would extend control over PBR protected seed varieties to 20 years from 18 years. They would also expand breeders’ rights to include control over a wider range of activities. For instance, seed companies would have exclusive control over cleaning, conditioning and storing of PBR protected seed. Current regulations allow seed companies to exercise control only over the production, reproduction and sale of PBR protected varieties. However, perhaps the most controversial element of UPOV 91 is a provision that allows seed companies to collect royalties on harvested grain. Under UPOV 91 standards, companies that are denied an opportunity to collect royalties on PBR protected seed would be permitted to collect royalties on harvested grain. They would not be allowed to collect royalties on both seed and harvested grain, a concept known as double dipping. The National Farmers Union was

one of the first organizations to issue a response to Ritz’s comments on UPOV 91. In a Nov. 15 news release, NFU president Terry Boehm said adopting UPOV 91 standards will severely restrict farmers’ ability to save and reuse seed. “Farmers should be very aware that this regime will allow breeders to collect royalties on the entire crop, not just on the seed as allowed under our current plant breeders rights’ legislation,” said Boehm. “Yet again, Gerry Ritz is proving himself to be the Canadian agriculture minister most hostile to farmers ever by giving a choice plum to the biggest corporations in the world: the right to exploit farmers through UPOV 91.” Canada is one of a handful of modern industrialized countries that has not adopted UPOV 91 regulations, along with New Zealand and South Africa. Canada signalled in 1992 that it intended to ratify UPOV 91 regulations and bring Canadian PBR legislation in line with the new standards. So far, it has not happened. End point royalties, which are charged on harvested grain, are already an established method of collecting PBR revenues in many countries, including Australia. Royalties there vary from crop to crop and variety to variety but in most cases, they range from a low of $1 or $2 a tonne to a high of $4 per tonne. On Nov. 18, the Western Barley Growers Association (WBGA) issued a news release applauding Ottawa’s support for updated PBR laws and the creation of a more attractive investment climate for plant breeders. “We have been told by private plant breeders that they are not interested in risking the millions of dollars it costs to bring a variety to market in Canada without a more modern legal framework in plant breeders’ rights,” said WBGA president Doug Robertson. Added WBGA vice-president Martin Hall: “The changes … will allow the adoption of UPOV 91 and bring Canada in step with the rest of the world.… We applaud the federal government for their vision and drive to create a modern grain industry in Canada.”

Canadian Western Agribition is over and the counting has begun. Organizers are tallying final attendance and sales figures after what president Reed Andrew called the best show ever. Although this was his first year as president, he and his family have exhibited cattle since the first show in 1971. “I’m extremely proud of the show we had this week,” he said Nov. 16. “This has been the best Agribition we’ve had throughout the 43 years.” Attendance is anticipated to be more than 120,000. The purebred beef sales highlight was a $31,000 Limousin bull, RPY Payne’s Derby, consigned by Payne Livestock of Lloydminster, Sask., and sold to Highland Stock Farms at Olds, Alta. The show was held about two weeks earlier than usual this year because Regina is hosting the Grey Cup Nov. 24. Opening day was Nov. 11, and the show offered free admission, leading to packed trade show areas and many first-time visitors, said chief executive officer Marty Seymour. He said it was worth it to offer free admission because those who didn’t know what Agribition was about will be back. “I think the impact is an investment in the future,” he said. “We looked at this early on in the year and felt that the opportunity was here to give back to the community.” The show is said to generate $37 million in economic activity: $20 million of that goes to the City of Regina.

Mark Kelley of Angleton, Texas, phones home from Canadian Western Agribition in Regina to tell Keaton McConathy that his Charolais female was supreme champion at the annual event. The cow is heading back to the United States in time for the Western National Stock Show at Denver, where her heifer calf will be shown. | ROBIN BOOKER PHOTOS During the show, federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz announced a five-year $664,000 funding commitment to Agribition through its AgriMarketing program, and provincial agriculture minister Lyle Stewart announced a four-year $200,000 investment, in addition to the money the province already provides through marketing and agricultural awareness programs. Seymour said provincial money would likely be earmarked for the Family Ag Pavilion and ag awareness efforts. Federal money will be used to

bring more international buyers and sellers to the show and enhance the International Business Centre. About 700 guests from 60 countries attended this year. Vladimir Zamykula, deputy governor of the Poltava oblast in Ukraine, made his first visit to the show with a delegation from his state. They were looking for dairy genetics in particular but also technology in cattle and grain production. “Today’s world is a global world and one of the biggest challenges is to satisfy the food security needs of the

world,” he said through a translator. “Ukrainian and Canadian veterinary protocols are quite well aligned. It’s important to access leading genetics and technology.” Seymour said interest from South America was strong this year. “Something this year that struck me as a great opportunity is the amount of interest on our webcasting service,” he said. “Beef shows and sales are all broadcast around the world. We had 17 countries and 26 states watching at any given time.” Still, attendance at the show is critical to its success. Construction of the new football stadium on the Evraz Place grounds will change the traffic flow. This year Agribition piloted a Parkand-Ride program from a city mall, and Seymour said that service will be back next year. He said the show also hopes to expand its trade show space next year. All the space allocated this year was sold out. The new Stock Exchange space, The Yards, was a success, he added. About 6,000 schoolchildren attended the show through the agri-ed program, and the First Nations Pavilion was also a big attraction. Andrew said the show will continue to grow. “My dad was part of the first Agribition, where there was a handful of cattle producers and a small trade show,” he said. “Today, we’re the best beef show on the continent and one of the largest trade shows in North America.” His father died last year, and the first Barry Andrew Family Scholarship, from a $25,000 bequest to the show, was awarded to Roberta Anderson of Bethune, Sask.

Canola slow moving off farms

Federal minister defends CETA to beef producers

Wheat deliveries up | Jump in canola prices unlikely, says buyer

Competition close for seat as Conservative government touts CETA deal, pursuing the farm vote

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canola isn’t moving off the farm fast enough, which has one major crusher forecasting a “big, fat” carryout and lower prices. Farm deliveries were 3.28 million tonnes through week 14 of the 201314 crop year, which is down 1.2 million tonnes from last year’s pace despite a much bigger crop that needs to be consumed. “I think what you’re seeing this year is the growers want to be moving wheat,” said Aaron Anderson, assistant vice-president of grain merchandising with Richardson International. Wheat deliveries were 5.5 million tonnes as of Nov. 10, up 614,000 tonnes from last year’s pace. “The growers are making us move it,” he said. “They think there is more market appreciation opportunity in canola than there is in wheat, durum, barley and oats.” However, the likelihood of a canola price hike is diminishing each week that exports and crush lag behind last year’s pace. Exports are 200,000 tonnes behind, and the crush is 250,000 tonnes behind the 2012-13 pace. What is particularly alarming is that it is happening in a year when canola supply is two million tonnes larger than last year’s crop, and that is using Statistics Canada’s conservative 16 million tonne production number.

Anderson believes the harvest was closer to 17 to 17.5 million tonnes, which would result in three to 3.5 million more tonnes of canola to move than last year. He is forecasting three million tonnes of carryout in 2013-14, more than double Agriculture Canada’s estimate of 1.4 million tonnes. “We’re going to carry more seed than we’ve had in the past, and that will probably have a fair bit of weight on the basis in the nearby and it will keep futures spread pretty much at full carry,” he said. Despite the slow start to the year, Anderson believes crushers will meet or slightly exceed Agriculture Canada’s estimate of 7.2 million tonnes of crush. Most crushers planned their annual maintenance shutdowns for the beginning of the 2013-14 crop year because there wasn’t a lot of old crop canola to be found. Richardson extended its shutdown by a couple of weeks to tie in an expansion at its plant in Yorkton, Sask. As well, not as much canola oil was forward sold as last year because margins are not as good, which resulted in reduced capacity utilization at some plants. The good news is that the crush pace has been similar to last year since about mid-September, and Anderson expects it will pick up later in the year because the three crushers in Eastern Canada will continue processing canola throughout the year, whereas last year they rationed

demand for the crop later in the year. He expects to make up the 250,000 tonne shortfall and exceed last year’s crush by another 250,000 tonnes in the May-July period. What happens with exports will depend on whether wheat keeps up its tor r id pace. Wheat expor ts through week 14 were 4.56 million tonnes, up 1.15 million tonnes from the same time last year. Agriculture Canada is forecasting eight million tonnes of canola exports, up 739,000 tonnes from 2012-13. Anderson said Japan and Mexico will take their usual amount. The wildcards will be China, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Dubai. Sales programs to those countries will depend on how much competition Canada faces from Australian and Black Sea canola. There are reports that the Australian crop is smaller than anticipated. The Black Sea crop comes off in June and July. Anderson thinks exports could be 7.5 to 8.2 million tonnes, which won’t be enough to mop up all the excess in the system. He said there is a great pricing opportunity in the July futures, which as of Nov. 18 was trading for $23 per tonne higher than the nearby January contract. However, he expects that price will fall by July, based on his three million tonne carryout estimate, unless there is a weather scare in South America or Europe.

CARBERRY, Man. — For once, farm and agriculture issues seem to matter in a federal election. It’s only a byelection and the issues aren’t front and centre in the main politicking, but the surprise appearance of a leading federal Tory cabinet minister at a small gathering of cattle producers highlighted the fact that at least around here, the farm vote might actually count. “We held out and held out and we managed to get what we think was the best conceivable deal for lives t o c k p r o d u c e r s i n C a n a d a ,” employment minister Jason Kenney told a regional Manitoba Beef Producers meeting Nov. 15 while discussing the free trade deal with Europe. “This CETA (Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement) deal with Europe could have been done probably a couple of years ago, but the one big sticking point that we kept holding out on was quota for beef and pork.” Most of the issues in the local byelection fight are common to politics across Canada — the Senate scandals, oil industry impacts and the overall state of the economy — but the local Conservative candidate has focused on the impact of CETA for the local economy and highlighted the importance of agriculture to Brandon and the region.

Employment minister Jason Kenney courted rural voters at a recent Manitoba Beef Producers meeting. | ED WHITE PHOTO “Just about every job, outside of the ( a r m e d f o rc e s ) b a s e o f S h i l o, depends on the export of grain, livestock and crude oil,” said Larry Maguire, a former provincial Tory MLA and a long-time farm group leader, who is now campaigning for the Brandon-Souris seat. Federal NDP leader Thomas Mulc a i r a n d L i b e ra l l e a d e r Ju s t i n Trudeau visited Brandon earlier that week and the polls suggest the competition is close, even though it is a longtime Conservative stronghold.

The MBP meeting didn’t draw many farmers, with only 30 present when the Tory politicians appeared, but those who attended quizzed Kenney on CETA and challenged him on employment and immigration.

TECHNOLOGY | INVENTION

3D printing may help farmers Make your own parts | New technology could help growers design small pieces, says inventor BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The Saskatchewan inventor who caused an online firestorm with his redesigned 3D printer says the technology could have huge implications for farmers. “I wouldn’t say you could fix everything on your farm with one now, but it’s going to be a technology similar to the lathe,” Rylan Grayston said about the machines, which enable users to design objects on a computer and then build them, one tiny layer at a time, into a three-dimensional object. “There’s so much you can do with it.” The small parts are usually made of melted plastic. Grayston’s device uses a special resin that hardens when exposed to a specific light. Only a few centimetres in size, Grayston’s novel device is touted as “the first $100 3D printer.” It’s simpler, smaller and far cheaper than anything else available and has created a lot of buzz in the burgeoning 3D printing sector. Farmers won’t be using 3D printers soon to fill their toolboxes with wrenches and sockets, but Grayston said computer savvy producers could make their own dials, switches and gears. “There are so many specialized parts that they go out of production and what do you do?” he said. Grayston is from Yorkton, Sask., but has ties to a family farm in Manitoba. “I’m not technically a farm kid, but I totally want to be,” said Grayston, who dubbed his machine the Peachy Printer. Manufacturers, including agricultural equipment makers, have long used 3D printing to design, model and test new products. Those larger, sophisticated machines can be expensive. New technology and innovations have recently enabled enthusiasts and keen designers to bring 3D printing into offices and onto desktops. The machines can cost a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Grayston said he was interested in the technology but not the price tag when he started his project last year. He is a “jack of all trades” with a high school education. “I barely have my Grade 12,” he said. “Mercy passed.”

Visit us online at www.producer.com to see a video about this story. He went about researching and building his own machine, looking for cheaper parts and a simpler process. “I ask myself questions like, how can I do this for free? How would I do this if I was a caveman? If I had no technology?” he said. Grayston’s printer went through several variations with the support of an investor. He eventually made a device from parts that included pencil lead, a ripped up CD, earphones and a common laser pointer. From there, he polished his homemade design and went to Kickstarter, an online platform for startup businesses to gain attention and customers. Over a few weeks this fall, his campaign attracted more than $700,000, international media coverage and praise from engineers and designers. The first Peachy Printers will be assembled and delivered to several thousand supporters over the next few weeks. From there, he’ll continue to refine his design and expand the business. “We’re not sure how big it can print. I’m pretty sure I can print a canoe with this thing, just by moving it away so the spot that it can print gets bigger,” he said. “And of course I need a tank that I can fit a canoe in.” In the future, he can imagine printers producing objects made from a variety of materials. Creating the three dimensional designs for the printer might be one hang up for users, but it isn’t insurmountable, said Grayston. The material the printers use may also not be strong enough for the field, but that too is evolving. When asked about the material, Grayston quickly imagined how he could print an object, pour casting compound around it and melt metal around it with an acetylene torch. “I think that farmers by nature are inventors,” he said. “I don’t think you can make it through a year of farming without inventing something.”

GRAIN | MARKETING

Faller can be sold for milling in U.S. New market | Company will accept Canadian wheat at American terminals BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canadian wheat growers who planted Faller wheat from common seed now have a legal opportunity to sell their 2013 production as milling wheat south of the border. Scott Nagel, president of ADM Benson-Quinn, said his company has acquired an exclusive licence to import Canadian-grown Faller into the United States. Nagel said his company will accept deliveries of Canadian-grown Faller at three U.S. locations: Walsh Grain Terminal at Park River, North Dakota, Dakota Midland Grain at Voltaire, N.D., and Markit County Grain at Argyle, Minnesota. Canadian growers should call ahead for information on pricing and delivery opportunities and must declare the variety when they enter the U.S. The grain must come through one of eight designated border crossings at Pembina, Dunseith, Portal and Neche in North Dakota or Roseau, Warroad, Baudette and Lancaster in Minnesota. Nagel said prices will be comparable to those for similar milling wheat varieties grown in the U.S., although there will be a discount to cover the costs of seed royalties, which will be collected on behalf of the variety’s developer, North Dakota State University. “There was a fair amount of Faller planted (in Canada) from common seed … and Faller is an unregistered variety in Canada, so it was basically being grown illegally,” said Nagel. “What we’re doing is … providing a good legal opportunity for producers to receive a fair price for the grain that they produced … because technically, if they (grow it from common seed and) sell it in Canada, they need to sell it as feed wheat.” Faller is a high-yielding spring

wheat variety. Average Canadian yields in 2013 have been estimated at 90 bushels per acre, but protein is generally one or two percentage points below Canada Western Red Spring checks. Faller is a popular variety among some growers in southern Manitoba, despite the fact that it has never been registered for commercial production. An estimated 40,000 acres of the variety were planted in Canada this year, including 25,000 acres from common seed. The remaining 15,000 acres were grown legally, using certified seed, under a closed loop production program that was launched earlier this year. Total production has been estimated at 3.5 million bu. this year, but according to some industry sources, actual production, including grain from unreported acres, could easily be five to six million bu. Seed Depot, a pedigreed seed company in Pilot Mound, Man., has commercial rights to sell certified Faller seed in Canada. John Smith, chief executive officer of Seed Depot, said the arrangement allowing Canadian growers to sell illegal production in the U.S. was viewed as the best solution to a bad situation. Smith said it is a one-time attempt to clear the system of illegal production. The one-time program has been endorsed by North Dakota State University and facilitated by the Canadian Plant Technology Agency, which monitors the illegal sale of protected crop varieties in Canada. “They’re not trying to legitimize the wheat that’s been produced (illegally),” said Smith. “They’re just trying to work with producers and say, ‘look, we’ll do this

one time, for this year only, but that’s it. In the future, it won’t be an option.’ ” Lorne Hadley, executive director of the Canadian Plant Technology Agency (CPTA), offered a similar view, suggesting the ADM BensonQuinnn program is a one-time opportunity for growers to get rid of illegally grown wheat. “This is producers’ opportunity to get their Faller sold off their farms and … get an IP contract (next year) if they want to continue to produce Faller in 2014,” Hadley said. “There’s no guarantee that this will ever be repeated.” Hadley said Canadian farmers can sell their 2013 production in the U.S. without fear of legal repercussions. CPTA will not have access to the names of growers who sell Faller in the U.S., he added. However, producers who retain common seed and replant it again next year shouldn’t expect a similar break. “This is a program of getting this product out of the marketplace, off the farm and asking producers not to retain any Faller to plant again in 2014 as common seed. Just move it out,” he said. “If they choose to retain seed that they purchased illegally … grow it again and try to find a market for it, then they’re on their own.… Producers in Manitoba … should appreciate that (Seed Depot), the NDSU and the grain companies have worked very hard together to work this grain through the system, this time. But I wouldn’t expect it to happen again, with this variety or any other.” Smith said discussions have taken place to determine if Faller should be put forward early next year for commercial registration. More likely, registration support won’t be sought in Canada until the spring of 2015, he added.

Corn big loser in cut to U.S. fuel minimum Ethanol slashed | Lower demand and a huge harvest will pressure prices BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

THE EPA’S RENEWABLE FUEL INCLUSION MINIMUM WILL BE REDUCED IN 2014 BY

Ever-increasing ethanol production, which has been the growth story of the bull market in crops since 2006, might be ending. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s plan to slash the amount of ethanol it would force fuel makers to include in gasoline next year has surprised many who hoped the story would go on for many years to come. “The industry is basically built around ever-expanding demand for ethanol, and now it’s turned the other way, at least within North America,” said Chuck Penner of LeftField Commodity Research. It adds a pall on the already-darkening outlook for crop prices for the next couple of years, said Darin Newsom of DTN. People will no longer feel the need to chase corn supplies to ensure they will have enough. It will also allow commercial users to relax and remove an incentive to put their money into crops such as corn. “From an investor’s point of view, there’s even less reason to get interested in corn,” said Newsom. The EPA, which administers the Renewable Fuel Standard mandate, said Nov. 15 that it was cutting the 2014 grain-based ethanol fuel inclusion minimum to 13 billion gallons from the 14.4 billion gallons required this year. The standard boosts ethanol pro-

duction by forcing fuel makers to include certain amounts of biofuel in their petroleum products. Corn, the main ethanol feedstock, has seen the required amount increase steadily in recent years, and many had hoped to see the U.S. government increase inclusion rates further by moving to a 15 percent ethanol-in-gasoline standard. However, the U.S. government now seems likely to stick with a 10 percent rate, ending the growth of corn needed to supply the ethanol industry. The slump in demand adds another element of worry to a corn market that is already seeing a huge U.S. crop come into the system and question marks hanging over demand that is still part of the official outlook for corn. Newsom said corn exports, ethanol production levels and livestock consumption are all likely to end up lower than now projected, leading to bigger ending stocks of corn than at any time since 2008-09. Any overall global weakening of demand will make corn supplies seem increasingly onerous after high corn production this year and three years of falling domestic demand for corn because of high prices. The reduction in the ethanol mandate won’t necessarily hit the market directly in coming months. Penner said ethanol producers are making good profits because of falling corn prices, so they’ll keep producing and may even build new plants.

However, how ethanol producers fare once they have surpassed the 13 billion gallon limit will show whether the biofuel industry can keep expanding. “If they can easily move it offshore at a profit, it’ll continue to use corn, to spit out DDGs and we’ll go on our merry way without too much impact,” said Penner. “But if we have a hard time exporting it, we will see 13 billion gallons as a hard cap.” The overall bull market in crop prices was driven by ever-growing demand for supplies that farmers around the world were having trouble matching with new production. The bull market seemed unassailable as long as demand grew more than production. However, with big crops produced this year in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere, especially in the United States and Canada, the market dynamic has shifted to one of supply growth outpacing demand growth. Some analysts think a big South American crop this winter would imperil the bull market, while big northern hemisphere crops next year would kill it. Many observers have considered the U.S. ethanol demand as the single most important factor driving the bull market. As a result, analysts and investors closely watch any change in that demand as a sign of general crop market dynamism.

PULSES | SUPPLY OUTLOOK

Pulse exporters expect steady sales to stabilize prices BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Pulse markets are returning to normalized demand after a prolonged period of hand-to-mouth buying, which should result in less price volatility, say two major players in the industry. Alliance Grain Traders Inc. experienced strong sales in this year’s second and third quarters, helping mop up an excess supply of poor quality

lentils that had been weighing down markets since 2010. “With the robust shipping that happened, we’re back into a more balanced position on supply and demand,” said company president Murad Al-Katib. Sales programs to India and Turkey were unexpectedly strong during the second and third quarters, which is when the two countries usually rely on their own domestic production. He forecasts strong export volumes

to key pulse consumption markets for the remainder of this year and the first quarter of 2014. “The upcoming shipping periods may be some of the busiest we’ve seen in our company,” said Al-Katib. He believes a good export program should reduce the price volatility that has plagued lentil markets lately. There will be windows where prices move up or down by one to three cents per pound, but the days of 10 cent fluctuations are in the past.

Joel Horn, president of Legumex Walker Inc., another major global pulse processor, agreed with Al-Katib’s assessment of market conditions. “Clearly the demand has been good, the pricing has been good. Things have returned to a more normal situation,” he said. The company’s third quarter sales were up dramatically over the previous quarter in what is usually a slow sales period. “We’re definitely having our best

shipping that we’ve ever had. I mean, this third quarter was tremendous,” said Horn. Legumex’s primary markets are North America, South America and Europe. “Those markets are strong right now,” he said. “I think the whole credit situations are starting to normalize again, especially in our North American market things are really strong.” CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

However, one looming problem could put a damper on pulse markets. Seeding of India’s rabi (winter) crop is underway, and growers are expected to expand pulse acreage because of improved moisture conditions. It could result in larger Indian chickpea, pea and lentil crops and reduced export volumes and prices later in the 2013-14 crop year, said Anthony Kulbacki, chief operating officer of Legumex’s special crops division. “Likely it’s going to have a moderating influence on prices or push prices down slightly,” he said. Kulbacki said it shouldn’t affect Legumex’s bottom line because the company doesn’t do much business into India. “But I think from a grower standpoint, they should likely expect lower prices and I think that’s already starting to be reflected in bids in the country,” he said. Al-Katib said there are reports that India’s kharif (summer) crop has

been damaged because of excess rain, so he anticipates continued strong demand from the country in the traditional October through February shipping period. The rabi crop is harvested in March and April. Sales to India slowed in August and September because of the slumping Indian rupee, which fell to 69 rupees to one U.S. dollar from 56 rupees over a 14-day period. “It was a massive, massive devaluation,” said Al-Katib. The landed local price of a shipment of Canadian lentils suddenly skyrocketed to 48,000 rupees per tonne from 39,200 rupees per tonne. But the currency has recently bounced back to about 62 rupees per U.S. dollar, which is restoring importer confidence. “We’ve come halfway back from where it was,” said Al-Katib. “We’ve seen the resumption in demand in India.” There has also been a good sales program to the Middle East and North Africa, partly because of soaring demand from food aid programs.

Mexico and China will be the wild cards in this year’s dry bean market, says a major processor of the crop. Markets have already absorbed the impact of the vastly reduced North American harvest. Canadian farmers produced an estimated 203,100 tonnes of beans, down 26 percent from last year, while U.S. growers harvested 952,815 tonnes, down 27 percent from last year. The Mexican harvest is underway and early expectations are for a big crop. The U.S. agricultural attaché is forecasting 1.14 million tonnes of production in 2013-14, up from 1.06 million the previous year and 626,000 in 2011-12. “Favourable weather conditions with a regular rainy season since September encouraged growers to increase planted areas of dry beans in the main producing states,” said the attaché. “Moreover, these favourable weather conditions have impacted favourably the expected yields.” The report said Mexico won’t import product from non-North American Free Trade Agreement countries and is expected to boost exports. Anthony Kulbacki, chief operating officer of Legumex Walker Inc.’s special crops division, said information on the Mexican harvest is only starting to arrive, so it’s premature to make concrete conclusions. However, it looks like the Mexican surplus could put a damper on black and pinto bean prices.

We will have some competition from Mexican exports that may have a negative impact on prices, and to some degree that’s being priced into the market now. ANTHONY KULBACKI LEGUMEX WALKER INC.

“We will have some competition from Mexican exports that may have a negative impact on prices, and to some degree that’s being priced into the market now,” he said. Kulbacki advised growers to keep a close eye on news from Mexico about the current harvest and the planting of the winter pinto crop, which will be harvested in February and March. A poor crop in China, which has

become a major exporter, could offset the excess Mexican production. “From our understanding, the production or the yields weren’t as high as people hoped, so I think supply will be somewhat constrained there in the upcoming season,” said Kulbacki. The company believes the quantity of Chinese beans available for export will be constrained in the second and third quarters of 2014, resulting in higher asking prices, which should in turn support North American bean markets. “It’s hard to get any sort of read on what classes would have been most impacted by the weather,” he said. Kulbacki is confident Legumex Walker will be able to buy enough product for its two Chinese plants. As well, he said the company has a healthy sales program in white and coloured beans that should compensate for any reduced margins caused by declining pinto and black bean prices.

CHINA | ECONOMIC PLAN

Chinese reform to extend commodity boom Competition likely to increase | Plan would lift restrictions on rural migration and ease them for medium-sized cities LAUNCESTON, Australia (Reuters) — China’s planned economic and social reforms should extend the decade-long boom in demand for commodities while at the same time making the demand more price sensitive. The 60-point reform plan still needs to be fleshed out, but initial indications are that the appetite for resources by the world’s biggest commodity buyer is far from finished. From a longer-term perspective, the most important parts of the plan include lifting the restrictions on rural migration to smaller cities and

easing them for medium-sized cities. This alone should ensure that China’s demand for iron ore, copper and other base metals remains robust as housing and infrastructure is created across the country to cater to rising urbanization. Much of this activity will also fly beneath the radar because it will take place away from mega-cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. However, this doesn’t mean the commodity demand will be any less real. Although not one of the 60 points of the Communist Party plan, the overall effect is clearly aimed at raising

the income levels for millions of people and moving them into a consumer-led society. This has positive implications for overall commodity demand through increased buying of products such as motor vehicles, but also for agricultural imports, particularly soybeans, as people move up the protein chain. Increased consumption of animal proteins means a boost in demand for soybean meal used as feed for most livestock. China’s output of soybeans has also been largely stagnant for the past 15 years as the nation concentrated on

increasing production of grains like wheat. This means that China, already the world’s biggest soybean buyer, may have to increase imports at a faster rate in coming years. The proposed land reforms may result in more efficient farms, but much will depend on how much land is allowed to be sold, who is allowed to buy it and how the revenue from land sales is distributed. The other main element of the plan relates to allowing market pricing to play a greater role in pricing commodities.

China has been moving in this direction in recent years, especially with relation to refined fuel, and continuing this path will help align its domestic markets more closely with those for the rest of the world. Pricing oil products according to global market signals will result in far quicker reactions to changes as demand adjusts to either higher or lower costs. While this may do little to alter the overall import demand for crude oil over the longer term, it will make it more volatile and responsive to changes in global prices.

RURAL RIGHTS | INVESTMENTS

China could shake up corn prices with economic reforms MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

n agricultural revolution might be coming to China as the country’s new president, Xi Jinping, presses for wide ranging economic reform. The path of this reform is important for Canadian farmers because it could affect corn price trends, and corn has a major influence on all grain prices. The central committee of China’s Communist Party met recently, and the official statement from the gathering emphasized the need for a

decisive role for markets and greater rights for rural people. If rural land ownership reform is adopted, and that is far from guaranteed, it would likely lead to a more rapid rationalization of agricultural production and increased investment. This could raise productivity and reduce the possibility that the country would fail to meet its grain selfsufficiency goal of producing 95 percent of its needs for corn, wheat and rice. Farms in China now tend to be tiny. The state, not the farmer, owns the land. The local council receives the money when farmland is sold for residential or industrial manufacturing needs and decides how much to compensate the farmer who leases it. Without land as collateral, farmers have trouble obtaining loans to

improve their operations. Schooling, welfare and other social benefits are tied to a person’s home location, so rural migrants who travel to cities for better opportunities lose their benefits. The government would like to see more rural people move to cities because worker shortages are causing factory labour costs to rise and a larger labour pool would cap wage increases. However, urban factory workers still make more than rural peasants. A larger urban workforce would spend more and increase the domestic market, reducing the country’s reliance on overseas exports. Rural people who owned their land could borrow to improve production or get the full value when they sell it to move to urban jobs. Reforming residency rights would allow rural people more confidence to migrate to cities and retain

their government-funded social benefits. Rural land reform could lead the way to consolidation into larger holdings, which would allow the application of modern mechanized farm production and better economies of scale. On the other hand, China’s authorities are also cautious, fearing land ownership reform could cause even more rapid sale of rural land, leaving farmers homeless and causing more rural unrest. Pilot projects in land ownership reform have sprung up in some provinces, but observers say local governments don’t want the reform because they rely on the proceeds of land sales. Previous Chinese leaders have talked about rural reform, but progress has been mixed. However, it is important. China will hav e t o b e c o m e a maj o r g ra i n

importer to meet its rising need for feed grain if it fails to raise its crop productivity. The Chinese have differing opinions about their self sufficiency goals. Yang Weilu of the China National Grain and Oilseed Information Centre told a Winnipeg meeting earlier this month that his country will not become a major grain importer. However, Xu Xiaoqing, head of the rural department at the State Council’s Development and Research Centre, said in September he sees corn imports growing to 20 to 30 million tonnes, which are three to four times current imports. China is the world’s second largest corn producer after the United States. Its average yields over the past three years were 93 bushels per acre, which is fairly good by international standards but still well behind the U.S.’s three year average of 144 bu. per acre, which includes last year’s severe drought. Rural reforms could help accelerate China’s yield gains, but a story in Corn and Soybean Digest suggests there might be more to the story. It said some corn land now under hand cultivation is hilly and not suitable for mechanized farming. As well, expanding cities constantly reduces farmland acreage. The government allows genetically modified corn, but there are obstacles to its rapid adoption. Rising labour costs are also a farm issue. As costs increase, there is a tendency to shift to higher valued crops such as vegetables and fruit. China’s food demand will help determine world grain fundamentals. Some analysts warn that we are headed back to a period of surpluses and weak prices after several years of grain shortages and high prices. China would give weight to the weak price scenario. If it can substantially increase grain yields, but if it can’t, then the outlook for grain exporters such as Canadian farmers is more upbeat. Follow D’Arce McMillan on Twitter @darcemcmillan.

RECORD FED PRICES

HOG PRICES FALL

BISON STEADY

Record steer prices were established once again this week as fed prices have increased 6.7 percent since the beginning of October. Fed steers were $125.10 per hundredweight, up 55 cents from the previous week. Alberta and Saskatchewan show list volumes were the smallest this year. Reduced captive inventories and a marginal increase in cash supplies, mainly because of carryover volumes from last week, gave cash traders added bargaining power. Local packer competition over the past couple of weeks has been light, but U.S. packers did participate in the Canadian fed market. Canadian fed cattle were being formula priced, and negotiated cash sales were at a premium over local deals. Light to moderate trade was reported for last week with weighted average steer prices 50 cents higher than the previous week. Dressed trade was reported from $209-$211 per cwt. delivered. Heifer trade was reported, but volumes were too light to establish an accurate trend this week. The Alberta fed cash to futures basis weakened 1.00 to close the week at -14.06. Canadian fed exports to the United States for last week totalled 6,244, up 23 percent from the previous week. The U.S. cash trade was higher, but there could be some downside risk to futures prices over the next two weeks. Investors are worrying that processors are struggling to pass on higher beef prices to retailers. As well, the U.S. Department of Agriculture is scheduled to release its Nov. 1 cattle-on-feed report, and there has been speculation that placements will be larger than last year and the five year average. North American processing margins remain negative, but market ready supplies remain tight. Near-term fed prices should continue to trade at or near record prices.

Carcasses are heavier this year than last, resulting in 2.5 percent more pork. Ron Plain and Scott Brown of the University of Missouri noted the average barrow and gilt live weight in Iowa-Minnesota last week was 280.8 pounds, up 1.1 lb. from a week earlier and up 8.2 lb. from a year ago. Carcasses normally increase this time of year thanks to cooler weather. Iowa-southern Minnesota hogs delivered to packing plants fell to $60 US per hundredweight Nov. 15, down from $61.50 Nov. 8. The estimated pork cut-out value was $91.97 Nov. 15, down from $94.85 Nov. 8. Estimated weekly U.S. slaughter to Nov. 16 was 2.347 million, up from 2.29 million Nov. 8. The same week last year was 2.374 million.

The Canadian Bison Association said Grade A bulls in the desirable weight range averaged $3.50 Cdn per pound hot hanging weight with sales to $3.70. Grade A heifers sold at $3.45 with sales to $3.55. Animals older than 30 months and those outside the desirable buyer specifications may be discounted. Quality yearling bulls sold at slightly more than $2 per pound live weight and quality heifers sold at about $2.

SLAUGHTER DOWN AGAIN Slaughter cow prices trended lower this week on a large market offering. D1,2 cow prices have tumbled more than $7.50 per cwt. in three weeks, while D3 cows are more than $5 per cwt. lower. D1,2 cows averaged $79.58 last week, D3 cows averaged $70.80 and rail prices were $150-$155. Butcher bull prices have seasonally trended lower to average $84.05 per cwt. Non-fed western slaughter for the week ending last week was up 12 percent from the previous week at 10,021 head.

AUCTION NUMBERS FALL Auction volumes remained large as producers gathered and sorted while the weather held. Steer calf prices softened over the past two weeks but may have bottomed. Prices this week rebounded $1-$1.50 per cwt. higher. Heifer calves generally saw a similar firming trend, except for small heifers less than 400 pounds, which slipped significantly lower. Middle weight 600-700 lb. feeders traded fully steady to 50 cents per cwt. higher this week. Large feeders more than 700 lb. saw prices trend $1-$1.75 per cwt. lower than the previous week, and the Alberta feeder index slipped -2.02 to 147.14. Total Alberta auction volumes surprisingly surged four percent to 90,278 head and were 31 percent larger than the same week last year. Year to date auction volumes are 15 percent larger at 1,355,357 head. Weekly auction volumes have been more than 86,000 head over the past three weeks. This significant market volume

should contribute to a tighter feeder supply. Year-end tax demand for feeders will intensify over the next few weeks, and prices are anticipated to be fully steady to higher for all types of feeders. U.S. buyer interest will continue to be price supportive.

BEEF PRICES DOWN U.S. boxed beef prices dropped $1.43-1.65 US per cwt. on generally light to moderate demand and light offerings. Holiday demand for prime rib picked up and pushed Choice rib prices were $9.17 per cwt. higher to $336.36 per cwt. End meats remained under pressure with rounds and chucks down $4.23- 4.29 per cwt. and $2.85-$4.75 per cwt., respectively. The Choice-Select spread widened to $14.04 per cwt. from $13.82 per cwt. because the rally of rib prices partially offset the declines in other Choice items. Fifty percent trim prices were holding ground at $117.94 per cwt., up 33 cents per cwt. from the previous week. Weekly volumes totalled 731 loads, up nine percent from the previous week. Canadian cut-out values for the week ending Nov. 8 moved lower with AAA down $1.81 per cwt. to $196.92 and AA down 11 cents per cwt. to $189.60.

GM FOOD LABELLING | CONSUMER CONFUSION

CRAIG’S VIEW

Mandatory GM labels more confusing than helpful

andatory labelling for all food products that contain genetically modified ingredients seems like a good idea at first blush. Who isn’t in favour of truth in labelling and consumer choice? The problem is that it is anything but truth, and it really provides consumers with no real choices at all. The issue of mandatory GM labels reached the front pages once again recently, thanks to a vote in Washington state in which the concept was rejected by a margin of 54.8 percent opposed to 45.2 percent in favour. There were hopes on one side and fears on the other that the Washington initiative, if passed, would become the wedge that ultimately cracks open the issue and forces jurisdictions across North America to deal with it head-on. Addressing it may not be a bad idea, but the way Washington state legislators went about it was unlikely to bring about the desired results. If the goal of mandatory GM labels is to provide clarity to consumers about the ingredients in their food, and it should be, then it falls well short. In fact, it compounds the problem by forcing consumers to sift through indiscernible and meaningless information on their food labels. The ingredients listed on many products are already impossible to pronounce and cast an incredibly wide net to make sure all legal responsibilities are neatly encapsulated. To add a ubiquitous label statement that a particular item “may contain GM” would be hard to take seriously. Mandatory GM labels are counterproductive in that they stir in confusion rather than clarifying. For example, what if small amounts of tofu are used in making a vegetarian lasagne? Tofu is made from soy milk, which is made from soybeans, which are estimated to be 93 percent from genetically modified varieties in the U.S. The tomato sauce ingredients, the pasta, the vegetable oil and myriad other ingredients also need to be assessed for GM content.

What, too, happens when modern testing methods capable of detecting tiny amounts of residual GM material find extremely small amounts of GM, a fraction of a percent, that could have been picked up from dust contained in a previous rail car load? The “may contain” statement is the only possible way to meet the requirements of a mandatory law. Yet producers today must listen to consumer demands or risk being seen as paternalistic and inflexible. We are living in an age of niche marketing, and p ro d u c e r s s h o u l d e m b ra c e t h o s e opportunities. The way to accomplish that in a clear and meaningful way is to differentiate products with a GM free label. Consumers are demanding openness through all levels of the food production chain, farms included. And when they don’t get it, it raises a cloud of suspicion. That might not be fair, but perception is what matters most in these types of cases. A GM free label option not only provides farmers the ability to serve this niche, but it also ticks off two other boxes on the successful strategy checklist: clarity and consumer choice. Labels should educate, inform and help consumers feel confident about their food. They should not obfuscate or mislead. Products that can offer the GM free label would also be in line to earn premium prices, something that would be difficult to justify without the added attention that label statement brings. It is time for GM free labels, but it is also time for food safety advocates, politicians and health experts to show leadership by providing common sense regulations. The rules for such label claims must clarify exactly what GM free means. It is not a health claim, only a guarantee that products are free of GM content, below an agreed upon tolerance for low level presence.

FOOD PROCESSING | ONTARIO GOAL

Heinz plant closure pours water on Ontario ag minister’s food industry vision NATIONAL VIEW

BARRY WILSON

ittle more than a month ago, Ontario premier and agriculture minister Kathleen Wynne issued a bold challenge to Ontario’s agriculture and food industry. “I’m challenging Ontario’s agri-food industry to double its growth rate and create more than 120,000 jobs by 2020,” she told a Toronto food summit. “I’ve always believed in the enormous potential of this sector.”

Well, make that goal 120,740 new jobs. Last week, H.J. Heinz Co., now owned by Brazilian and American investors, announced it will close its 100-year-old ketchup plant in Leamington, Ont., next year, throwing 740 plant employees out of work in a town of 12,000. Fifty farmers in this southwestern Ontario area will be forced to look at growing lower-return crops. They now have sales of more than $1 million a year and are dependent on Heinz to buy their tomato production. It is a blow for the community, for the farm community and for the O ntar io Liberal government ’s dreams of a food industry revival. It is also a setback for the province’s food processing sector, which has been hollowed out over the past decade as

Ontario lost its status as Canada’s largest agricultural province. “It clearly is a setback, but we are still the No. 1 industry in the province,” Ontario Federation of Agriculture president Mark Wales said. He was raised in the Leamington area, and his parents both worked for Heinz in the 1940s. “For sure it is a kick in the shins for the government goal for industry expansion,” he said. “This is one of the things that happens when you don’t have head offices in the country. They have no loyalty beyond the bottom line.” That’s the kicker. Ontario’s food processing industry is largely the victim of international market forces. Foreign owners will move production to where wages are lower (not

Ontario), a strong Canadian dollar has diminished competitiveness in export markets and labour shortages often plague the Ontario industry, despite the fact that thousands of seasonal workers lose their jobs with plant closings. As well, the weakening or end of marketing boards has left farmers with almost no power in this high-stakes market chess game. International capitalism calls the shots. The irony of the Heinz closing is that one of the buyers of the iconic company is American billionaire capitalist nice guy Warren Buffett, who regularly laments the growing gap between the rich and poor. Tell that to 740 unemployed workers. Local, provincial and federal governments have little control over capital movements or far-away owners.

Wales insists that the provincial government can pursue its industry expansion goals with incentives for processors. “It’s vital the Ontario agri-food industry work with government to develop a strategy for domestic food processing so Ontario agriculture and food production continues to thrive, drive economic activity and meet premier Wynne’s challenge to increase growth,” he said in a statement after the Heinz announcement However, that horse seems to have left the barn. Government actions to support industry are often subject to trade challenge, and governments are tending to shy away from intervention. Consider the Heinz announcement a harbinger for the continued decline of Canada’s food processing industry.

AGRIBITION | AUCTION

No room in science for provocateurs

Who knew I was itching to own a pet heifer?

BY CAMI RYAN

ow many times do we have to deal with the folly and fallout of sub-standard science? So often we see the same old illreputed studies brought up to challenge something that is no longer an issue: the safety of genetically modified food. Not so much as a tummy ache has been reported by anyone after eating three trillion servings of GM food. More than 750 well-executed studies conducted over a span of more than 20 years affirm the safety of GM food. Many of these are conducted by independent, public sector scientists. We call this “scientific consensus.” Three studies have been published over the past year that have created controversy online and in our dialogues about agriculture: • The Séralini et al. (2012) study alleged that rats fed GM corn were prone to tumours and higher mortality rates. • The Carman et al. study (2013) reported that pigs fed a diet of only GM grain showed a higher incidence of stomach inflammation. • The Kreuger study purported a relationship between glyphosate levels in the urine of Danish dairy cows and ill-health effects. These studies are each guilty of three or more of the following: • A poorly executed methodology • Weak statistical analyses • Poor use of controls • Inappropriate sample sizes • Spelling and grammar errors • The authors’ refusal to release data or methods so that other scientists can replicate the work.

Poorly executed studies on genetically modified food safety ruin the reputation of respectable scientific studies, says the author. | FILE PHOTO These weak or missing elements violate the long-established tenets of “good science.” However, why do these same old studies keep getting regurgitated in the media and continue to pop up on the internet, complete with hype and ugly photos? • The internet is an amazing highway of misinformation, and we are wholly tapped in. More than 70 percent of North Americans consult Google and social media platforms for information. • We humans exhibit interesting cognitive habits. We are conspiratorial thinkers, we are conformists and we seek out information that confirms our beliefs. • We love a good story. Before we could write, we told stories. The only difference is that we don’t do it

on cave walls anymore. We do it on the fast moving social media trains of Facebook and Twitter. This leaves us open to all kinds of misinformation. Science isn’t easy to understand and it certainly isn’t sexy, so most of us who understand what “good science” is are left scratching our heads when poorly executed studies magically make it through the peer-review process. Make no mistake, these so-called studies have political agendas driving them. They are promoted and circulated in such a way that they feed into our fears and our biases. The studies and their authors are highly provocative — nothing more. Quite simply, there is no room in objective, evidence-based science for provocateurs.

Did you know that the publication of the Séralini study in September 2012 was neatly bundled with a wellpromoted news conference, a book launch and a movie — all in the same week? This is unheard of in reputable science circles. It is clear that Séralini set out to prove something rather than to objectively investigate. In advance of the publication, Séralini also required journalists to sign a non-disclosure agreement, which meant they couldn’t consult with any third party experts to report on the study in a balanced way. No self-respecting academic scientist would require a non-disclosure agreement. All of these studies have been discredited by food safety and health organizations and independent experts. If any of these studies represented ground-breaking work, which legitimately challenged scientific consensus, they would have been snapped up by high calibre journals such as Science and Nature. We are in serious trouble if we base our expectations of science on these kinds of poorly executed studies. We should strive for evidence-based information and good science to inform policy rather than someone’s agenda-motivated, fictionalized version of the science. We should demand better as a society if safety and value-added are the goals of our food industry. We cannot hold progressive and innovative science to such weak standards.

CATTLE SHOWS | TRADITION

Purebred shows losing relevance with genomics HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

roducers and fitters were washing, blow drying, clipping and otherwise primping their purebred cattle in the Canadian Western Agribition barns while others paraded their stock in front of judges. Meanwhile, just upstairs from the beehive of activity, a seminar on beef cattle genomics was notable for its sparse attendance. Genomics will have a large impact on everything from sire selection to management programs as an increasing number of informative DNA markers are identified in the bovine genome. This isn’t only for the purebred industry. Some commercial produc-

ers already submit DNA samples to labs, usually some hair with follicles attached. It’s like the early days of personal computers. A growing amount of data can be gleaned from each sample at an ever-decreasing cost. If you want something as simple as sire verification, the cost may be as low as $10 or $15 a sample. Expected progeny differences (EPD) have long been used to help select desirable breeding animals. This involves collecting data on birth weights, weaning weights and growth rate of progeny. Adding genomics to the toolbox provides a lot of information on an animal even before it produces progeny. It’s exciting new technology, but apparently it can’t compete with the lure of preparing animals for the show ring. There are fewer stops on the show circuit these days, but major shows such as Agribition in Regina and Farmfair in Edmonton continue to attract hundreds of purebred breeders willing to go through the work and expense of showing off their cattle

the same way it’s been done for decades. Many commercial and even purebred beef producers struggle to see the relevance. In North America, black is beautiful. Due to the success of Certified Angus Beef, black calves going through auction markets receive a price premium regardless of their underlying genetics. That’s why there has been a major push to put black in the genetics of breeds that were never noted for that colour. Isn’t there something inherently wrong when breeding programs target a colour rather than growth rate, feed efficiency or meat tenderness? It seems to me that the purebred cattle industry is clinging to tradition in a world that’s rapidly evolving. With livestock producers in other sectors worrying about biosecurity and keeping their animals healthy, isn’t it counterintuitive to truck your best animals to locations where they mix with herds from far and wide? And when the business is producing beef, are beauty pageants relevant?

A lot of tradition is involved. Many young people still grow up fitting cattle in 4-H programs, and there will always be a need to show live animals to prospective buyers. However, aren’t EPDs and the best information that can be garnered from genomics ultimately more important? It’s interesting to note that in the grain industry, seed shows such as the one that used to be held at Agribition have largely been discontinued. Seed shows are a beauty contest with the beauty bestowed mainly by environmental conditions. Pretty seed samples don’t mean much for producers choosing which crop varieties to grow. They buy seed for its genetic potential: traits such as enhanced yield, shorter days to maturity, disease resistance and marketability. Cattle shows will no doubt continue for many years to come. Traditions don’t easily change. However, more focus on numbers and less focus on hairspray might be useful. Kevin Hursh is an agricultural journalist, consultant and farmer.

A n g u s a u c t i o n s a l e. It h a s become part of my tradition. I’m in the second row, sitting next to livestock reporter Barbara Duckworth, and about two paces away from a young auctioneer. The sale guide is in my lap, and I look down at the picture of the next pretty heifer on offer. I am suddenly itchy, and I realize a tiny piece of straw hanging in the heavy, humid air has landed on the side of my nose. I reach up. I scratch it. The auctioneer ’s head snaps around. He realizes I’m not one of the bidders and looks back out to the real buyers. Whew. Close call. But then the bad girl inside me comes out, and I think, what if I called my husband? “Hi honey,” I would say, as sweetly as possible. “How is your day?” “Great,” he says, like he always does. “How’s it going at Agribition?” “Pretty good,” I answer, a question lingering in my voice. “What’s up?” he asks. “Um,” I say, buying a little time. “Do you have $4,200 just lying around somewhere, doing nothing?” “Why?” he asks, suspiciously. “I’m bringing someone home with me. Her name is Jennifer. Or Erica. I’m not exactly sure.” “Why does she need $4,200?” “She doesn’t. Her owners do.” “Owners?” “She’s sort of a heifer.” “Is that a nice thing to say about Jennifer? Or Erica?” “Yes. She’s very pretty; black velvety hair, big eyes, long eyelashes.” “Are you trying to tell me you bought a heifer at the Angus sale?” “Yes. But I didn’t mean to! I was just scratching my nose and, well, there it was. Sold!” He doesn’t know whether to laugh or yell. “Well,” he says slowly, “at least I won’t have to mow the lawn this summer.” Of course, none of this would have happened. These auctioneers are pros, and are certainly not going to land me with a heifer I can neither feed nor transport. Besides, she’d be lonely out at Dad’s farm. Grain only. But I really wanted to make that prank phone call. If there had been two minutes of time between Agribition meetings, events and receptions, I totally would have.

KILL C-68, STEPHEN To the Editor: For many years and elections before becoming the prime minister, Stephen Harper promised over and over again that he would get rid of C-68 when he formed government. Stephen Harper did kill the long gun registry. Killing the long gun registry is not the same as getting rid of C-68. Under C-68, the firearm owner must be registered and possess a valid government licence as long as he or she owns a firearm or else he or she breaches the criminal code. In other words, possessing a firearm without a valid PAL can land you

in jail, as well as having all of your firearms confiscated by the government and ending up with a criminal record. At this time, there are over 600,000 firearm owners whose PALs have expired. These are the paper criminals that Harper has created by not repealing C-68 or by not taking the recreational firearm control section out of the criminal code. I believe that lawful firearm use regulations should be under provincial legislation. Hunting and safe firearm use is already under provincial jurisdiction. The federal government should only be dealing with criminal use of firearms. Owning a firearm lawfully should never be deemed a criminal act just

because a paper licence expires. We all know that C-68 was a waste of over $2 billion and had no impact on crime. All it did was create criminals out of lawful, taxpaying Canadians. Did you know that only child molesters and pedophiles are registered in Canada besides lawful firearm owners? Why are firearm owners put into the same category as pedophiles? When will this prime minister fulfill his broken promise made way back when? Or will he make that same promise again before the next election? Inky Mark, former MP, Dauphin, Man.

P3S NOT THE ANSWER To the Editor: The (Sask. premier Brad) Wall government claims their plans to build 18 new public-separate schools in nine joint buildings will save taxpayers $30 million using the P3 model (Premier Wall, Leader-Post and Star Phoenix, Oct. 23). Don’t believe premier Wall for a minute. P3 (public-private partnerships) records on Canadian schools are dismal to say the least. Calgary’s Hamptons School (Tirion Developments) had a leaking roof just six months after opening, causing the Calgary Board of Education to spend $100,000 in repairs. In March 2009, Alberta’s 2007 18 K-9 schools came under fire by Alberta’s acting auditor general, saying that “the government has refused to provide financial details on the deal even though it was signed almost six months ago.” The acting auditor general then concluded the P3 savings were overstated by $20 million. New Brunswick’s provincial auditor (1998) report exposed that Moncton’s lease-back school cost nearly $900,000 more than a publicly financed and owned project. Nova Scotia’s auditor general stated that “the contracts for Nova Scotia’s P3 schools were nothing more than a licence to print money for the private partners”. After building 38 of 50 P3 original schools, Nova Scotia reverted to traditional public sector methods for future school construction at an estimated savings of $2 million per school. Even though local school boards are leasing many of these schools, they are charged outrageous amounts for after-school activities, are often limited to only one day a week usage and are charged for all maintenance and repairs even though the owners use the schools for entrepreneurial promotions etc.

It’s all tied up. When it comes to yield supremacy, it’s six of one, half dozen of the other. It’s been talked about, debated, and argued amongst growers across the prairies. When it’s all said and done, according to yield trials, Genuity® Roundup Ready® hybrids yield on par with the competition.* Like all contests this close, the debate rages on... for now.

MEAT LABELLING | CANADA-U.S. STANDARDS

Meat label harmonization to assist wholesale trade Integrated markets | Standardizing the names of meat cuts at retail stores will be more difficult, says industry official meat cuts, without the need to relabel. In the future, Canadians will sit on a committee with U.S. counterparts to agree on name changes so they will be the same in both countries. Robert DeValk, who represented the North American Meat Association at meetings about the matter, said it is but one issue being discussed by the U.S.-Canadian Regulatory Co-operation Council (RCC), and one that proved relatively easy to arrange. DeValk said there are 24 differences in terms for wholesale meat, and the

Tenderloin chicken cuts are coming to Canada. They’ve actually been here all along and known as chicken filets, but an agreement between Canada and the United States to standardize meat nomenclature for wholesale products is ready for implementation. A pilot project beginning later this month will see the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and the U.S. Department of Agriculture accept each other’s terminology for various

need to re-label wasn’t serving the integrated market well. “That started to become a bit of an irritant, so when this regulatory cooperation council started, the idea was introduced very early on that one of the areas where we could probably do some harmonization and get rid of some trade irritants would be the nomenclature part,” said DeValk. A meat buyers guide that lists the terms for beef, pork, lamb, chicken, veal, game birds and specialty birds like Cornish hens will serve as the template for harmonized language,

and a new version is expected to be ready by October 2014. The update will affect only the wholesale meat trade. Harmonizing the names for cuts at the retail level is a more complicated process and may be difficult if not impossible to achieve, DeValk said. Ron Davidson, in charge of government and media relations for the Canadian Meat Council, said harmonized wording would be welcomed. “It just facilitates business without, in our view anyway, any loss of protection for people who are involved

in the wholesale trade,” he said. “We have such integrated markets, it just creates unusual complications to have two different nomenclatures for the same products.” The agreement was noted by federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz in a recent Chicago speech as an example of co-operation in meat trade matters involving U.S. and Canada. Country-of-origin labelling is the biggest issue facing the two countries on the file and one of six initiatives involving agriculture and food that are on the RCC agenda.

everend, your service really made me think,” Rob said as the family prepared to leave following his mother’s funeral. “Until now, it was never clear to me why she insisted they retire in a little place like this.… She always told us about growing up in a small community, and how much she missed having those connections as she followed Dad from one gas plant to the next. But we kids were so busy getting on with our own lives, we didn’t bother much thinking about what the folks said.… Today, seeing everyone come to her funeral, even though she’s only lived out here for six years, and knowing the way she and Dad have been supported since Mom started her radiation treatment.… I’m impressed. And you brought it altogether with your words about people taking care of each other.” Rob and his family often came for a Sunday visit and Mom’s good meals. We neighbours heard about the cute antics of the young ones after they had gone, but we stayed out of the way so as to not interfere in family time. So it is understandable these city-raised kids didn’t have occasion to come in contact with the extended community until this sad time. Now neighbours brought casseroles and kiddies’ treats to the house for the gathered family. And they told the family stories about the way their mom quickly found her place in the community by volunteering at the seniors’ centre and how much they appreciated the thoughtful deeds done by their handyman dad. Now the family was saddened but content. The quiet cemetery was a good place for a memorial marker for this special lady. The roots they associated with this place grew deeper. Coming to visit their dad was something they anticipated with pleasure.

GM FOOD | REGULATIONS

Biotechnology company to learn fate of GM apple in 2014 Non-browning apple | Okanagan Specialty Fruits says United States regulators will rule on GM apple before Canada does BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

The biotechnology company that has developed a non-browning apple hopes U.S. authorities will approve it as early as this spring, with Canada to follow five or six months after that. Canadian groups opposed to the apple’s introduction have launched a new campaign to stop that approval. Okanagan Specialty Fruits owner Neal Carter, who developed the nonbrowning Arctic apple, said the U.S. Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) began a second

comment period Nov. 8 as part of its process toward deregulating the genetically modified fruit. He expects approval shortly after the comment period is complete Dec. 9. If that happens, “it means that come the spring of 2014, we can be planting Arctic apple trees completely unencumbered. They would then be treated like any other apple cultivar and they can be planted, they can be propagated, the fruit can be produced and fruit can be sold and consumed,” said Carter. “They basically become a mainstream product then.”

The Canadian Biotechnology Action Network and the Society for a GE-Free B.C. began a series of 32 public events in British Columbia and Alberta last week to raise awareness about GM food in general and GM apples in particular. Tony Beck of GE Free B.C. said his group has four main objections to introducing GM crop varieties in Canada: • Lack of independent testing; • Lack of public consultation; • The certainty of cross-pollination; • Worries about effects on export markets. “There should be public consulta-

tions, and companies shouldn’t be allowed to develop these kinds of products without that consultation,” said Beck. “We don’t know the decision-making process. We don’t know when the decision will be made. There’s nothing transparent. It’s basically a secretive process.” Carter said the U.S. process is far more transparent than the Canadian one, although he believes that may improve, based on his discussions with Health Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. However, the Canadian comment period regarding the apple was 60

days, with two pages of information provided for public use on the website. In contrast, the U.S. had two comment periods with 200 pages comprising full disclosure of company and government documents and studies. A public opinion poll commissioned by the B.C. Fruit Growers Association, which is opposed to GM apple introduction, indicated 69 percent of those polled do not want it approved. Beck said last week that there is no need for a non-browning apple. “Our polls show that there’s only one group of people who want the apple right now, which are the small group of investors in Okanagan Specialty Fruits, who are holding everyone else effectively for ransom.” Carter said the non-browning apple modification, which has been applied to Granny Smith and Golden Delicious varieties so far, could lead to more apple use in food service and fresh-cut markets and help boost apple consumption. “I think that the shareholders in our company have been ver y, ver y patient. A lot of them are apple growers themselves,” he said. “The shareholders’ interest is of course to develop something new, exciting and unique and that really is what Arctic apples are all about.” He also disputes concerns about GM contamination of other apple varieties. “They are forgetting the biology of apples,” he said of groups protesting Arctic apple introduction. “An apple as a crop is a perfect crop for the use of biotechnology because it’s bee pollinated and vegetatively propagated.” He said pollen spread via bees between varieties such as Fuji and Gala does not create variety issues, and the same would be true with Arctic apples. The APHIS report, which is accessible online, has addressed concerns about spread, he added. Beck said more research is needed about pollen flow as well as trees that grow from seed. “We know for sure that there will be contamination and cross-pollination,” he said. “It’s 100 percent certain that if genetically engineered apples are released, they will cross-pollinate with other apples. Two of the four main apple species that are eaten now in B.C., including the Ambrosia, were developed from seeds that fell by the wayside.” Beck and Carter agree that approval of the Arctic apple in the United States does not necessarily mean approval in Canada. “There is no assumption that that’s true, but there hasn’t been a case where it wasn’t, so we’re pursuing regulatory approval in Canada as vigorously as in the U.S,” said Carter. Beck partially agrees. “It will probably go ahead in Canada if it’s approved in the U.S. That’s been the trend, but that doesn’t necessarily mean people are going to see it on supermarket shelves.” He wants more municipalities in B.C. to declare themselves “GE free” and push the province to declare a moratorium on GM crop introduction that could be tested in the courts.

OILSEED | TESTS

Models show canola could work on central Great Plains Unconventional crop | U.S. researchers explore adding crop to rotations BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Canola doesn’t usually flourish in hot, dry climates, but U.S. Department of Agriculture scientists think spring canola can be successfully grown in Nebraska, Colorado and Kansas. David Nielsen, a USDA agronomist in Akron, Colorado, has developed a computer simulation model demonstrating that spring canola could be a profitable crop in the central Great Plains of the United States. The model, which accounted for weather data, various soil moisture conditions at seeding and other environmental factors, allowed Nielsen and his colleagues to determine that canola generated enough yield for farmers to turn a profit, even during times of adverse soil conditions. “Simulations produced positive average net returns for five sites — Champion, Nebraska, Garden City, Kansas, McCook, Nebraska, Sidney, Nebraska, and Tribune, Kansas — … when only 25 percent of (normal) soil water was available for crop use at planting,” the USDA said in a release. “When 75 percent of the soil water was available for crop use at planting, the model indicated that six of the sites had more than a 70 percent probability of producing a canola seed yield of at least 900 pounds per acre.” Nebraska and Colorado won’t produce the same yields as North Dakota because too much water is lost to evapotranspiration in the hot, arid climate, but Nielsen said the computer study and plot trials in Akron, Colo., indicate it is a feasible cropping option. “The next step is really whether a farmer is willing … to take (a) risk and plant this on his own ground.” Nielsen evaluated the potential of spring canola because many farmers in the region are locked into a wheatfallow rotation. “Getting a different crop into the wheat system is one of the primary objectives,” he said, adding the canola could also be used to produce biodiesel. “There are some farmers who would like to produce their own fuel. With not a great deal of expense, you can get a kit to convert a diesel tractor to run straight vegetable oil.” Farmers in Colorado, western Kansas and western Nebraska have expressed interest in canola, but most ask Nielsen the same question: why not winter canola? “That of course is the big question,” he said. “Why are you messing with spring canola because … its grain filling period (will run) into the really hot July.” However, Nielsen said the region’s proximity to the Rocky Mountains increases the likelihood of a midwinter mild spell, which can be disastrous for winter canola. “The problem is this unique area of the central Great Plains (is) that winter canola will typically encounter some pretty warm temperatures in January,” he said. “It will break dormancy, the snow

will melt … then there will be this blast of sometimes sub zero Fahrenheit weather that damages the plant.” Plot trials in the region have shown that winter canola has a 50-50 chance of surviving the winter, Nielsen said. Winter canola might not be suitable for western Nebraska and eastern Colorado, but the story is different in Kansas. Winter canola has become a Cin-

derella crop in southern Kansas in the last several years as acres increase every year. Mike Stamm, a Kansas State University winter canola breeder, said its popularity is spreading northward as varieties improve. “We’ve had variety trials in northcentral Kansas, about 15 miles from Nebraska, the last few years and it’s been the best canola in the state.”

Looking to diversify crop rotations, American researchers are exploring whether canola could be profitable in Nebraska, Colorado and Kansas. | FILE PHOTO

Producers urged to watch for PED symptoms Porcine epidemic diarrhea | Official tells producers to come forward if they find the disease on their farm BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

CALGARY — Porcine epidemic diarrhea has not been found in Canada, but all sectors of the pork industry are on high alert as the fatal disease spreads in the United States. Producers attending Alberta Pork’s annual meeting saw U.S. photos of emaciated and dead piglets, which have been ravaged by PED since the disease reached Iowa in May. Dr. Lucie Verdon of the Canadian Swine Health Board encouraged

producers to maintain strict biosecurity measures because their pigs have no immunity to the virulent virus and there is no treatment. PED is not a reportable disease, meaning federal authorities do not have to be notified, but she encouraged producers to watch for symptoms and consult a veterinarian immediately if they suspect infection. “Please don’t do the three S,” said Verdon, referring to the “shoot, shovel and shut up” approach that some producers use when dealing with livestock illnesses.

“Please don’t just hide it because you’re going to put the whole country in trouble.” Early containment will be key to minimizing damage and controlling spread should PED enter Canada. It is now in 19 U.S. states, having started in Iowa, spread throughout the Midwest and then eastward. Verdon said American data indicates average losses of 1,688 pigs per 1,000 sows. It is characterized by acute diarrhea and vomiting in pigs of all ages and is almost always fatal to nursing pigs.

However, it seems to start in finisher barns and then track back to nursery barns and sows, Verdon said. PED presents no threat to other animals or humans, and meat from infected pigs is safe to eat. The virus is commonly transmitted through feces: even a small amount can carry it. It will be vital to follow biosecurity protocols and ensure transport trucks from the U.S. are thoroughly cleaned. Verdon said U.S. studies indicate even uncontaminated trucks have an 11 percent chance of becoming con-

taminated during unloading at facilities with PED. Despite easy spread, Verdon said in a later interview that it is possible to keep PED out of the country. “If we say we’re not going to do anything, the battle is over, so I think we have to battle it,” she said. “But everybody is surprised how come we don’t have it.” Dr. Julia Keenliside, a veterinary epidemiologist with Alberta Agriculture, said the province has developed a response plan that involves all links in the chain from producer through packer. “It’s very different from H1N1. This time we’re prepared ahead of time,” said Keenliside. She said all producers will be told if PED is found, although the specific farm will not be publicized. Processors will also be alerted, and the affected producer will still be allowed to ship animals. Keenliside said PED had infected seven states in the U.S. before producers knew they had it, which increased the speed and breadth of spread. Early symptoms are similar to transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGE), but “PED is like TGE on steroids,” Verdon said. Bruce Ginn, an analyst with BMI Ag Services, said American hog inventories have been affected by PED and are lower than U.S. Department of Agriculture projections. That could delay producers’ return to profitability. Ted Bilyea, a livestock and food industry consultant, said Canada could have a trade advantage over the U.S. if it avoids infection by capitalizing on its reputation for clean, healthy pigs and pork. “Canada has always had the highest health herds in the world,” he said. Other countries cannot match it because of its access to space, clean water and attention to biosecurity.

PED FACTS • Porcine epidemic diarrhea is caused by a highly virulent coronavirus. • It has been widespread in Europe and Asia and active in China since 2010. • It was detected in Iowa in May 2013. • It has spread to 19 states. • It may have come to the United States through feed, but investigation continues. • It is generally fatal to nursing piglets and kills through severe diarrhea and vomiting. • Sow symptoms include fever and lethargy. • Growing pigs exhibit widespread diarrhea, but mortality is low. • It is transmitted primarily through feces. • It does not affect other livestock or people. • It is not a reportable disease, according to the World Organization for Animal Health. • It has not been found in Canada. • There is no effective vaccine. • The virus can survive cold weather. • More information is available at www.swinehealth.ca.

ALBERTA POLITICS | RURAL COUNCILLORS MEETING

Municipal governance bill tabled Proposed bill would allow municipalities to form regional planning boards BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

EDMONTON — Alberta’s minister of municipal affairs didn’t have to beg for applause from rural councillors, but he did have to ask twice after announcing that proposed changes in the municipal governance bill will be voluntary. “I’m going to say it one more time. We’re going to explicitly say in the bill that it’s voluntary and it’s your initiative, not mine,” Doug Griffiths told rural councillors at the recent Alberta Association of Municipal Districts and Counties (AAMD&C) convention. The provincial government introduced the Municipal Governance Act, or Bill 28, on Oct. 28, but tabled it two days later after rural councillors and opposition politicians voiced their concerns about the bill, which would force municipalities to join together to form regional planning boards. The new bill would give the government the power to determine the board’s objectives and goals. “There has been so much misinformation around Bill 28 and I take full responsibility for that,” Griffiths said. “I owe all of you an apology for not communicating more what our intentions were for Bill 28. I let it get away from me. There are a lot of assumptions of what exactly is in Bill 28.” Councillor Richard Harpe of Grande Prairie County said not knowing the underlying reason for the bill, including making regional boards mandatory, is a real concern. “It really makes you wonder what their agenda is, if there is one,” said Harpe, who questioned why changes were even needed to the Municipal Governance Act. “The MGA generally works and works really well so I am a little leery of redoing our MGA .… Is there another agenda or isn’t there. I have no way of knowing.” AAMD&C president Bob Barss said the biggest concern with the MGA is the worry that municipalities will be forced to join together in regional boards that would overrule municipalities. “Being the minister has said over and over again it is voluntary, and we have pushed for voluntary to be in the legislation, we have some comfort it is another tool, but until we see the end result we will wait,” said Barss, who added he has talked to the minister about the association’s unease with the bill. Griffiths said it wasn’t the government’s intention to force municipalities to join together. Instead, regional growth boards were simply another tool to help municipalities manage the province’s expected growth. “It’s a tool you will be able to voluntarily choose if you like,” said Griffiths. Ba r s s s a i d h e’s a l s o p l e a s e d Griffiths has dropped wording that said reeves who don’t provide information to the new boards can be fined $10,000 and sent to jail. “As we move forward in discussions, we will have to see what the new amendments are to the bill. We will have to see what they say,” said Barss. “It’s too soon to start cheering about what we’ve been told.”

Wildrose critic Joe Anglin said he was pleased to see the minister apologize for the poorly explained legislation. “He has promised to remove a couple of the key provisions that we brought forward at the legislature,” Anglin said. “We think this is extremely important. At least we will let elected officials make the proper decisions for their communities.” The following day, Alberta premier Alison Redford reiterated the government’s new mantra that regional boards will be voluntary.

“We’ve created creative ways to c o - o p e rat e a c ro s s mu n i c i p a l boundaries only where it makes sense to do so, decided by you, and not by us at your request,” she said. “We want to make sure we get that regional co-operation right and we know the best examples of that regional co-operation is when you decide to co-operate,” said Redford, who admitted the bill was poorly implemented. Convention delegates later passed a resolution asking the government to withdraw Bill 28 until there is further consultation.

BEES | NEONICOTINOIDS

Man. apiarists fear grower backlash for blame over bee losses STORIES BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

NEEPAWA, Man. — Several people at last week’s Manitoba Beekeepers’ Association annual meeting slid forward in their seats when the topic shifted to pesticides, anticipating a spirited debate. The meeting at a church hall in Neepawa didn’t devolve into a raucous affair, but beekeepers did express concerns about the vilification of neonicotinoids, a class of insecticides that may be killing bees in North America. “Neonicotinoids have been blown way out of proportion…. I think we need a balanced response that’s not

overreacting to this,” said Rob Smith, who raises bees north of Winnipeg. “Let’s not jump on one bandwagon and say this is killing the bees because clearly that’s not true.” Earlier this year, beekeeper associations in Ontario and Quebec called for a ban on neonicotinoids, which are widely used as insecticidal seed treatments on corn, soybean and canola crops. The Ontario Beekeepers’ Association, in particular, has led a public campaign against neonics after thousands of dead bees were found in bee yards in the province during the springs of 2012 and 2013. Following an investigation, Health Canada’s Pest Management Regula-

tory Agency determined that insecticide-laden dust from corn planters was the primary cause of the bee deaths. Smith and others at the Neepawa meeting said varroa mites, viruses and overwintering losses also contribute to bee deaths, and a public campaign solely blaming neonicotinoids is misleading. Bryan Ash, a Manitoba Beekeepers’ Association director, said the Ontario and Quebec campaigns are driving a wedge between honey producers and growers. “It could have the potential to hurt western beekeepers,” said Ash, who is from Gilbert Plains, Man. “In the East they do a lot of pollination. We don’t

get paid for our pollination services. We put our hives on the farmers’ fields to gain nectar and honey. That’s how we make our living.” He said corn, soybean and canola growers may react if beekeeping associations blame them for bee deaths. “We could be asked to move our hives off their (land),” he said. Ash said Canadian beekeepers should take a measured position on bees and neonicotinoids based on the best available science. Smith agreed and suggested that Manitoba apiarists publicly state they oppose a ban to restore relationships with corn and canola growers.

“I think the Manitoba beekeepers should be getting out there and (advocating) a more balanced approach.” Dan Davidson, president of the Ontario association, acknowledged a difference of opinion from province to province on neonics. However, Ontario apiarists are trying for only a provincial ban, not national action, said Davidson, who farms near Watford, Ont. Advocating for a ban comes with risks, such as offending corn growers, Davidson said. However, beekeepers have no choice. “We’re not going to have bees if the way these neonics are being used continues,” he said. BEE DEATHS | PREVENTION

In September the Pest Management Regulatory Agency issued a notice with recommendations on agricultural practices to mitigate bee deaths from neonicotinoids. In the document, the PMRA asked organizations and individuals for comments before it makes a final decision on the recommendations. The comment period closes Dec. 12 but the PMRA has no shortage of material to review. “This document has received the most number of comments, ever, for any PMRA document,” said Marcie Smerchanski, Health Canada regional pesticide officer, during a presentation at the Manitoba Beekepers’ Association annual meeting in midNovember. Smerchanski said the PMRA has received more than 300 comments on the neonicotinoid notice of intent. That figure will certainly increase before the deadline. A PMRA investigation concluded that corn seed treated with insecticides caused the bee deaths. “The majority of pollinator mortalities were a result of exposure to neonicotinoid insecticides, likely through exposure to contaminated dust generated during the planting of treated corn seed,” PMRA scientists said. In the notice of intent the PMRA proposed several measures to protect bees from neonicotinoid exposure, including the use of improved lubricants on seed coatings to reduce the occurrence of insecticide-contaminated dust. In data released this fall, the PMRA said 74 Ontario beekeepers reported bee deaths in 319 bee yards. In 2012, 42 Ontario beekeepers reported deaths at 242 bee yards. While Quebec beekeepers had bee losses related to neonicotinoids, Manitoba apiarists actually reported more bee deaths than Quebec in 2013. Five Manitoba beekeepers suspected that neonicotinoids killed bees from their colonies in 2013. They reported dead bees from 11 yards. Corn acres have been on the rise in Manitoba, which might explain the bee deaths.

Wine, food, agribusiness toured AMERICAN AGRI-WOMEN | INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

The importance of networking Canadian women join U.S. counterparts for a weekend of learning, advocating for agribusiness BY MARY WILEY FREELANCE WRITER

An international conference for agribusiness women took baby steps toward creating future joint ventures for agriculture advocacy. It was the first time that the 40,000 member American Agri-Women group organized its national convention to include Canadian women. Tours and presentations took place on both sides of the Rainbow Bridge connecting Niagara Falls in Ontario and New York Nov. 6-10. Canadian organizer Brenda Lammens of Spearit Farms in Langton, Ont., a past-chair of the Ontario Fruit and Vegetable Growers’ Association and the Ontario Asparagus Growers’ Marketing Board, said many Canadian participants wanted more opportunities to connect.

“In reality, we are a network of women taking leadership in agriculture. Our next step is to set up a way to connect via technology and explore ideas for future in-person events down the road. “By connecting farm women who are advocates, we are empowering agriculture everywhere,” she said, citing the theme of the conference, “good neighbo(u)rs working together.” “We intentionally emphasized the ‘u’ in the word neighbours to show that while our common bond is women advocating for agriculture awareness, there’s real value in learning from each other’s ways of doing things,” said Lammens. Two hundred and sixteen delegates attended, including 100 from Ontario and Western Canada. “The purpose of the day was an opportunity for women from both

sides of the border to learn, network and share ideas about ag advocacy,” said Lammens. She said the idea for the conference was hatched in 2007, when the Canadian Consulate in Minnesota invited her to be a panelist at the AAW convention in Minneapolis. That led to Lammens organizing a 2011 Women in Agriculture Leadership conference in Guelph that was attended by 125 Canadian agribusiness women. “Some of us from Ontario have attended their AAW convention every year since 2007, and in 2010, it was decided that the 2013 event would be held in Niagara Falls, N. Y. The idea was to be able to easily cross the border for a day, to share ideas on agriculture advocacy from both perspectives,” she said. O n t h e Ca na d i a n s i d e, t hat included touring a horticultural

research station, floral greenhouse and cheese factory and learning how ice wine is made. Sue McCrum, AAW president and a grain farmer in Maine, said the conference heard from advocates for agriculture like Cherilyn Nagel, past-president of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association and U.S. tax specialist Larry Gearhardt. Other presentations ranged from private property rights, health care, Canadian production and policy and sustainable development to agriculture advocacy and a computer application that helps track lifestyle factors. “We wanted to signal our appreciation for the invisible aspect of the border between the two countries, and the importance of Canadians as consumers of our ag products,” said McCrum.

Wherever wineries are found, food destinations like the Upper Canada Cheese Company can also be found nearby. Located in the Niagara Peninsula on Ontario’s Wine Route, the cheese maker was a featured stop for Canadian and U.S. delegates at the American Agri-Women convention Nov. 7. Vivien Szebeny, the company’s managing partner, said the location allows for cross-promotion opportunities with local wineries. Upper Canada at Lincoln manages sales and delivery of their handmade cheese directly. About 50 percent of their products are sold from the on-site retail store, with the balance sold wholesale. The cheese is sold in specialty cheese shops in Ontario and Quebec and supplied to major restaurants in the Greater Toronto Area, as well as major retailers such as Loblaw’s, Sobeys and Costco. Commenting on the recently announced Canada-European free trade deal, Szebeny said there is a danger that small Canadian cheese companies’ sales could be adversely affected. “We keep in close touch with other artisan cheese companies in Ontario because we believe their presence strengthens the overall market. We also participate in Dairy Farmers of Canada marketing programs. “All of us are communicating with MPs and MPPs to ensure we are compensated for any losses we may incur as a result of increased sales of European cheeses in the Canadian market.” Szebeny said there are “enormous costs” in running the business and complying with standards. Upper Canada recently obtained federal licensing, which increased the need for careful documentation, sanitation and recordkeeping. “We are working toward (hazard analysis and critical control points) and we’re audited by our retail customers,” she said.

Celebrate local food— plan a community food event P

roducers who want to show the world their passions for the crops and livestock they raise should consider demonstrating it first-hand at local food events. Four years ago, I joined four women excited about farming and food to do just that. We came up with Harvest Feastival and this year, we held our fourth annual event. Looking back, it has been fun and not that hard. Here are some tips and recipes from our team to get you started on creating a local food event. BUILD A TEAM Our team is like-minded in purpose and includes people who are creative and connected and get things done. Look around your community to see who has planned successful events, knows local producers and food processors in addition to someone who is a detail person and can get people out to an event. Make sure these people like to have fun and don’t take themselves too seriously. Focus your ideas into a consistent

theme: We spent much time defining our event and goals. This work keeps us on track and even as we grow, it allows us to assess new ideas against our core focus. Every decision from decorating to music to venue is made easier when we put it up against a consistent theme. Be realistic about your strengths and weaknesses: Once you have determined your goal and defined your event, the next step is to figure out what you can do well. Build on your team’s strengths and empower each member to take on a job they love and will do well at. We also attended similar sized events in other communities to get the creative juices flowing. We discovered that we have access to some great cooks/caterers and the exhibition association has an excellent culinary team lead by chef Rob Hofer. CHOOSE A NAME We chose Harvest Feastival. Harvest seemed like a no-brainer because our event takes place in late

DOROTHY SANDERCOCK October when harvest is winding down. We also wanted to celebrate harvest and the bounty of our local foods with a feast. Your event name should say what you are and be catchy enough to engage interest. Find the right partners: We were fortunate to partner with the Lloydminster Agricultural Exhibition Association. Their goals meshed with ours to the point that they supply the venue and the cooks and staff to run most of the event. This left the rest of us with the job of connecting with the farmers, food processors and enthusiastic foodies. Another helpful partnership is with our volunteers, including celebrity chefs.

Each food station is hosted by the mayor, local MLAs, radio personalities and other well-known citizens. They serve the food with help from our student volunteers, who receive volunteer hours for one of their classes. The other key partnerships are with the local farmers and food processors. In August and September, we contact them to see what is available for our event and then plan our menu and food stations. Each farmer and food processor is able to promote their company at the food stations featuring their products.

tables and invites all the retired farmers who help them out during harvest. CROSS YOUR Ts AND DOT YOUR Is This includes making sure you have the right licence to hold your event and that you follow food safety regulations. Walk through the event through the eyes of a participant to make sure you have thought of everything. We also leave feedback forms on the tables and review what worked and what didn’t after each event.

GET THE WORD OUT Our event is promoted through the local paper, radio stations and posters placed around town. The exhibition also promotes it through its website and Facebook page and local producers promote it to their clients. We sell tickets at a local veterinary clinic and restaurant that uses local ingredients. We sell tables to local businesses and groups. One local farm family buys two

Here is Hofer’s tasty version of the dish Julia Child made famous. For our event, Lower Shannon Farms supplied the chicken, while the potatoes and onions came from Kathy’s Greenhouse.

Making bannock is second nature to Pahtayken. She cooks by feel, smell and taste: tasting the flour mixture to see if there is enough baking powder, feeling the dough to know when she has added enough water and smelling the dough baking to know when it is done.

In a large saucepan, sear chicken parts in canola oil to brown the outside but not cook through, about five minutes. You may need to do a few at a time to avoid overcrowding the saucepan. Preheat the oven to 350 F (180 C). Place chicken parts in a roaster. Season with salt and pepper. Add onions, garlic and mushrooms. Add two cups (500 mL) water. Cook for 20 minutes and then add wine. Continue cooking for an

additional 20 minutes. While chicken is cooking, prepare a roux by melting butter in a saucepan. Then add flour and whisk until mixture is thickened. Add a pinch of nutmeg. Then add the roux moisture to the chicken and stir to incorporate into the sauce. Cook for another 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked and sauce is thickened. Serve. Source: Rob Hofer.

Family strikes fine balance between work, lifestyle Management structure to sustain quality of life | ‘We will leave the land better than we found it’: B-C Ranch Inc. BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

MEADOW L AKE, Sask. — The Campbell family from Meadow Lake believes agriculture is the foundation of civilization. “If we don’t take care of the land and the people, we won’t have civilization,” said the B-C Ranch’s patriarch, Don Campbell. The sentiment is at the root of a meticulously crafted mission statement for the family’s 650 head cattle ranch, which supports Don and his wife, Bev, son Mark and his wife,

Bluesette, and son Scott and his wife, Jenna. Daughters Marie and Grace live in Calgary but also maintain a stake in the 4,200 acre ranch in northwestern Saskatchewan. Responsibilities are split into four areas. “Scott is in charge of going to the sale, relations with buyers, keeping an ear out for what’s happening in the industry,” said Bluesette. Mark manages finances, bills, budgeting and monthly monitoring, while Bluesette takes care of the people, focusing on building indi-

viduals and the team. People assigned to a particular job have responsibility for their area but can delegate to others. “The person is in charge of that area but not solely responsible,” said Bluesette. “If someone is left here by themselves, they would be proficient.” The family calls upon the ranch experience of Don, who worked as a veterinarian in Biggar, Sask., and Bev, who everyone agreed holds the family together and helps with grandchildren. Bluesette said education, commu-

nication and networking are key to the operation. Decisions are made by consensus at weekly meetings. “It’s what’s best for the ranch, not whose decision it is,” said Don. “We spent a lot of time planning.” The B-C Ranch began with Don’s parents, Bruce and Clare, in the 1940s. Sweeping views of the Beaver River, a dike and floodplain from the Campbells’ hilltop homes and a good water supply are among the attributes of their country lifestyle.

enables Bev and Don to serve in advisory and backup roles while allowing time for presentations they give on holistic management practised at B-C Ranch. “With three different families involved, we have time to do whatever is important to us,” said Don. “We manage our business, it’s not managing us.” Added Bev: “We spread the message there’s a better way.… They can have a better life like we’ve had. This land sustains us. We’re striving to do things better and improve things.” It allows time for community pursuits, such as Mark’s work as a school trustee and visits to Bluesette’s family in Montana. “This type of structure allows us to improve our community and ourselves,” said Bluesette. Don took a six day course in holistic management in Devon, Alta., where he learned how to care for people, improve the land and make a profit. It spawned a club in which he is still involved. The Campbells created their family farm plan with the help of a facilitator in a neutral location off the farm. “We had a clear template before we came home,” said Don, who doubts his children would have joined the operation without holistic management creating a profitable ranch and good family life. It looks at creating goals on quality of life and what is valued, what success looks like, the forms of production that can be produced at a profit to sustain quality of life and what the land needs to look like to support the family today and into the future. “There’s a balance between all of them. That’s the key to our success and how we’re able to make good decisions,” said Bluesette, who has also taken courses in holistic management with Mark. They meet regularly with a group of ranchers using a resource known as Profitably Living in Alliance with Nature. The group looks at when to sell dry cows, marketing, how to feed more economically with the least amount of work, grazing and recovery. “It’s a sounding board for making better decisions,” said Bluesette. To maintain better control, they have a weigh scale and direct sell their cattle from the farm, using an electronic auction mart and the local auction mart in Meadow Lake when needed. They normally hold onto their calves for a year. A dike built in 1966 by Ducks Unlimited protects habitat on the floodplain. Don said wolves are a challenge in this heavily wooded region, but annual winter trapping keeps the threat down. “As long as we control it, it’s not much of a problem,” he said. The cattle are moved each week, drawing on Bud Williams’ low stress handling techniques. “You work with the cattle, not against them,” said Mark. They use the cattle and the “diamond pies” they leave behind as “part of our wealth” to improve the land. The Campbells avoid open ground, maintain porous soil to make the best use of limited rainfall and allow 85

days of recovery for their dense pasture grasses. “This year, we used what fell onto the ground more effectively,” said Bluesette. The B-C Ranch received an environmental stewardship award in 2008 from the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association for its work in contributing to the long-term sustainability of land and water resources. “If we have healthy plants, it’s all a chain in lessening disease,” said Don. “It does a lot for your bottom line.”

PRINCIPLES OF HOLISTIC MANAGEMENT Holistic management is based on four key principles that highlight the relationship between large herds of grazing animals, their predators and the grasslands that support them: • Nature functions in wholes — You can’t control or change one thing in one area without having an impact on something else in another area. • All environments are different — It is crucial to acknowledge nature’s

complexity and that an action can produce different results in different environments. • Properly managed livestock can improve land health — Desertification can be reversed by properly managing domestic livestock to mimic the behaviour of wild herbivores interacting with grasslands. • Time is more important than numbers — Overgrazing of plants is

BARBECUE | COMPETITIONS

Saskatchewan team wins esteemed barbecue competition TEAM RESOURCES

SARAH GALVIN, BSHEc

Saskatchewan steelhead trout and beef tenderloin hit the mark in contest

he first time Rob Reinhardt was exposed to real southern barbecue was on television. He was hooked on it after travelling to the southern United States and sampling it. Reinhardt, who operates the Prairie Smoke and Spice food truck and catering business, participated in seven Ribfest events across Western Canada this past year. Rotary Clubs host the event as a fundraiser for their organization. Reinhardt grew up on a farm in southern Saskatchewan, where barbecue is called grilling. “Low and slow, where tough cuts of meat are cooked at temperatures of

225–250 F (105–120 C) for a long period of time is the real barbecue. Grilling refers to meat cooked directly over flame, while barbecue requires indirect heat so the meat gets tender before it burns,” he said. This fall, Reinhardt became a world champion at the Jack Daniel’s Invitational Barbecue in Lynchburg, Tennessee. His team was the last one to be drawn out of 80 American and three Canadian teams. “The Jack is the most exclusive, prestigious barbecue competition in the world,” said Reinhardt. Reinhardt’s Prairie Smoke and Spice team placed first in the Home Cookin’ from the Homeland category, an open category for the 20 international teams. His team topped all scores, including U.S. teams in the other competitions. His group prepared Saskatchewan steelhead trout with maple chipotle glaze and grilled lemons served on a seven-grain pilaf with almonds and cranberries. It was accompanied by Canadian beef tenderloin with a roasted garlic cream sauce. Barbecue is a family affair in the Reinhardt household, with his wife, Jacy, playing a major role. “I have never won a full barbecue competition without her. She keeps

coming back due to the friendships we’ve made.… My kids are at the age now we can bring them to events out of town and let them help, or at least trust them to stay out of the way during the intense turn in and judging period. “What amazes me the most is how barbecue has brought the rest of my family together,” said Reinhardt. His advice to the newbie is to get off the fence, give it a shot and start practising. Every barbecue competition is a weekend of cooking, hanging out and enjoying people who share the same passion. Angie Quaale, a barbecue judge from Langley, B.C., who trains new judges, said many competitors take meat with them, so they know what they are working work with at a competition. “Cooks who travel a lot rely on friends for assistance with their butchers in their towns. Barbecue is a great community in that way, the people are very helpful. But to be safe, I almost always travel with my own meat,” said Angie.

I read an article recently in which a pediatrician was encouraging parents to remove computers, cellphones and video games from their children’s bedrooms. The article made sense to me but when I tried to follow the pediatrician’s advice and take the computers and TVs from our kids’ bedrooms, I met a wall of resistance from my son, daughter and husband. I would like to pursue this in the future but I am discouraged. Do you have any suggestions that might be helpful?

I am glad that you have taken the pediatrician’s recommendation to heart. At times, the advice appears to be too idealistic to be useful. Most pediatricians are experienced with the challenges of parenting today’s child. They see the negative consequences of what we as parents do to our children. Pediatricians see obesity in our children, tired and lethargic kids and children who have been bullied in text messages and emails. Many doctors believe that if chil-

dren played fewer electronic games, exercised regularly and had decent sleep, their overall health would improve. Taking TVs, cellphones and iPads out of the bedrooms would help. In many ways, electronic media has led children and adults into exciting discoveries. But we have paid a price and we will continue to do so until we take control of the electronics and not fall victim to insensitive cyber intrusions into our lives. Today’s parents make an effort to tune into their children’s emotional needs and respond accordingly. I admire those who stress interpersonal relations with their children and try to understand and appreciate the developing child’s emotional turmoil. You are not going to get electronic games, computers and cellphones out of the bedrooms until you, as a parent, are also prepared to encourage more structure in your children’s daily routines. As a parent, you must learn to say no to your children, including saying no to late night excursions, no to unreasonable demands and no to expensive shopping ventures. If you don’t learn to say no to your children, following the pediatrician’s advice will be an insurmountable task. Jacklin Andrews is a family counsellor from Saskatchewan.

PEST RESEARCH | MANAGEMENT

Mysterious Swede midge increasing on Prairies No known natural enemies | Researchers want to find plant resistance to the pest rather than using chemical controls BY REBECA KUROPATWA FREELANCE WRITER

Swede midge has been on the Prairies for about six years, but scientists still don’t know much about it. “We still don’t have good knowledge of the biology of this pest on the Prairies, but it likely has up to three complete generations here,” said Julia Soroka, an entomologist with Agriculture Canada in Saskatoon. The first Swede midge adults emerge from over-wintering around June, with the first generation of larvae beginning to feed in mid to late June.

“Whatever state your canola is in by then will determine the impact on the larvae’s first generation on the canola,” said Soroka. Adult Swede midge females lay their eggs in young, rapidly growing tissue of crucifer plants in vegetative terminals or in young, rapidly growing buds or flowers. They are often laid in clusters. “When the eggs hatch, the larvae are quite gregarious,” said Soroka. “They can attack any stage of a crucifer and, of course, prefer the growing points, while quite happily feeding together. These gall-making

Swede midge secrete enzymes that break down the plant and then slurp them up (as they have no chewing mouth parts).” The plant biology changes as this occurs. “It’s a hormonal response that can present as distorted growing tips and very abnormal growth development,” said Soroka. “Eventually, depending on where the feeding point is, you can have distorted leaves, aborted buds or flowers, missing pods, and terminating racines that don’t develop. So, there’s very abnormal development

and potentially drastic yield loss.” Midges are typically weak flyers, and Swede midge is from a family commonly known as “fairy flies,” which are delicate and tiny. They can’t fly far, but they can be blown by wind. “We find the greatest infestations close to fields of previous infestation or downwind of infestation,” said Soroka. “The greatest level of field damage is at field edges by previous infestation sites.” Swede midge has a remarkable plasticity. In Europe and Ontario, over-wintering generations do not

emerge all at once. They can have up to three different thrushes — early, middle and late —which may force producers to deal with all life cycle stages at once. “For management purposes, we know they’re there from the damage they cause,” said Soroka. “Producers are best off combining looking at their field to see what stage it’s at and also to spot Swede midge in traps. If canola is at a vulnerable stage, that’s likely the best control scenario. Control timing too is important. As larvae feed on young, rapidly growing tissue, canola is vulnerable at two or three stages: cabbage, young bud and after bolting (when secondary and tertiary buds are in leaf axels). Typically, in the last two years, we’ve seen infestations in flowers resulting in a pod loss.” Two pesticides are registered in Canada for Swede midge control. “On the Prairies, we don’t yet have a good handle on when to use these,” said Soroka. “Also, in Canada, we haven’t yet found natural enemies to Swede midge.” Crop rotation is a vital tool, but areas of canola now seeded are so vast that it is not as effective as it could be. A colleague of Soroka’s in Sweden has reported that four-year and three-year rotations can minimize Swede midge. “In a large non-host field, Swede midge will fly out for a time,” said Soroka. “But the main part of that field will be a wasteland for them. As they won’t be able to reproduce, you’re reducing their numbers. Remember to also stay on top of crucifer weed control.” Soroka would like to find host plant resistance in the crop, using the crop itself to control the pest rather than prophylactic chemicals. She recommended producers start looking for Swede midge during the growing season, especially in northeastern Saskatchewan, which will likely extend into Manitoba. Also, keep aware of what type of damage to look for, such as unopened flowers, abnormal growth, delayed bolting and racine that ceases to elongate.

SWEDE MIDGE • Swede midge is a fly in the same family as wheat midge. • It feeds on crucifers such as canola and mustard, cold crops such as cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli, and several crucifer weeds. • Unlike wheat midge, Swede midge is multi-generational during a growing season. • It was first found in North America in southern Ontario and can have four and up to five generations a year in Ontario and Quebec. • Swede midge prefers warm, moist conditions. Unlike wheat midge, it is active during the day.

Saskatchewan Agriculture Hall of Fame new inductees

Hemp processors offer growers advice

Service to industry | Six individuals will be recognized for their contributions to agriculture BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Six individuals are expected to be inducted into the Saskatchewan Agricultural Hall of Fame for 2014. Three were announced during Canadian Western Agribition in Regina: Gary Jones, Elvin Haupstein and Dale Montgomery. The other three are expected to be announced at CropSphere during Crop Production Week in Saskatoon Jan. 14. The induction ceremonies for all six new members are scheduled for Aug. 2 at the Saskatchewan Agricult u r a l Ha l l o f Fa m e l o c a t e d a t Saskatoon’s Western Development Museum. Gary Jones: was born in Alberta and moved to Saskatchewan with his wife, Penny, to Crane Valley, south of Moose Jaw. They continue to assist their three sons in the operation of Jones Ranches and are known for their cattle export business. Jones served as president of the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association in 1977 and 1978. He served as president of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association from 1982 to 1984 where he helped improve relations between the Canadian and American industries. He served on the first board of Canadian Western Agribition and assisted with the introduction of the rodeo. Elvin Haupstein served in various capacities on farm organizations that represented the Saskatchewan dairy industry over the last 50 years. A dairy, beef and grain farmer from the Weyburn area, he expressed strong support research including the recently opened Rayner Dairy Research Unit at the University of Saskatchewan. While serving the industry as a member of the Dairy Producers Cooperative’s board of directors, he was instrumental in changing quota management policies. He also played a large role in building the Saskatoon dairy processing facility. Haupstein died in August. Dale Montgomery of Maple Creek is one of Canada’s best known stock dog handlers. He became involved in dog training, stock dog competitions and selling dogs in the late 1980s as his career in rodeo was winding down. Montgomery and his dogs have a long list of wins at events such as Calgary Stampede and Canadian Western Agribition.

Hemp business expanding | Company promotes the crop’s profitability and low input costs BY REBECA KUROPATWA FREELANCE WRITER

Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods began when co-founder Mike Fata, who weighed 300 pounds when he was 18, decided to change his diet and lifestyle. Fata first tried a popular 1990s diet that eliminated all fat. He learned the hard away, after getting sick, about the importance of essential fatty acids such as omega 3 and omega 6. This led Fata to hemp, one of the richest plant sources of essential fatty acids. “I fell in love with the healthy aspects of hemp,” he said. This wasn’t Fata’s first introduction to hemp’s positive aspects, such as its high fibre. “Overall, I just thought hemp was a cool plant,” said Fata. Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods, now in its 15th year of business, continues to operate in of Winnipeg, although it did move to accommodate a successful expansion. Fata said the business has grown 50 to 100 percent a year since its start in 1998. “It became a passion of mine once I became interested in healthy food and lifestyle, to be aware of where my food was coming from,” said Fata, who co-founded the company with Martin Moravcik and Alex Chwaiewsky. “This drove my passion for agriculture and working directly with farmers.” Hemp was being researched in Eastern Canada at the time, but that

was mostly for its fibre. In Western Canada, Fata and his partners focused on hemp seed as a food product. Hemp oil was the first product Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods brought to market, followed by shelled hemp seeds-hearts, the world’s first hemp protein powder and the world’s first organic, nondairy beverage. “We continually innovate but are really selling on the great taste and health properties of hemp food products,” said Fata. “That’s still the core nutritional product of our business and my passion for being health-minded. Interesting farmers in growing hemp was based on the same message we talk about today: that it’s a really profitable crop to grow, has traditional, lower input costs than some other crops and that producers getting into something new can find success with it.” Fata said hemp is a good crop to have in a rotation to interrupt weed and pest cycles. It is hardy and has a long tap root, which aerates the soil,

Also, it forms a large canopy that blocks sunlight and suppresses weeds. The crop has big nutrient demands and should be grown on a rich soil bed for the best possible yield. “We recommend farmers not grow hemp directly onto certain other crops with high nitrogen demand,” said Fata. “It also depends if producers are growing it conventionally or organically. There are many organic growers in this industry, as hemp is

marketed into the natural health industry.” Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods helps interested producers with the ins and outs of growing the crop. “We caution farmers, as there isn’t an open market for hemp, to get the right information and to grow hemp on contract to ensure they’ll have a market for their product at the end of the year,” Fata said. He said producers grew 49,586 acres of the crop in 2012, a 30 percent increase from the previous year. His company contracted 65 percent of those acres, he added.

EU TRADE DEAL | SUPPLY MANAGEMENT

CHARITY | SEEDMASTER

DFC disputes govâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cheese figures

SeedMaster offers community grants BY WILLIAM DEKAY

Consumption rising | Increasing cheese sales will offset imports, says Ottawa BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

The Canada-European Union trade agreement concession to give European cheese more access to Canada has negated the 2005 parliamentary pledge to never budge on supply management protection. With that blunt assessment, Dairy Farmers of Canada president Wally Smith went before the House of Commons agriculture committee to argue that the trade deal granting European cheese makers double their previous access to the Canadian market is far more damaging to the Canadian industry than the Conservatives are letting on. He promised that dairy producers will work â&#x20AC;&#x153;in constructive dialogueâ&#x20AC;? with the government to try to minimize the damage the dairy industry is facing. When announcing the deal in October, prime minister Stephen Harper promised that Ottawa will provide compensation if the deal damages the dairy industry. However, the government argues that cheese demand is increasing by seven thousand tonnes or more a year and the deal doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take effect for at least two years. As a result, higher consumption levels will take care of most of the increased European imports before the deal takes effect. Smith challenged the government calculations, but he went to the core of the compliant: a 2005 House of Commons resolution on protecting supply management. The unanimous House of Commons resolution of Nov. 22, 2005, which was supported by Conservative MPs facing an imminent election, said that Canada should agree to no tariff reductions in trade talks and no increased market access. Smith said that promise clearly is off the table. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Zero new market access and zero tariff reduction,â&#x20AC;? said Smith, a Vancouver Island producer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Back in British Columbia where Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m from, zero and zero equal zero.â&#x20AC;Ś I was told very clearly that the House motion is not binding on the negotiators. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not binding on the government and so we obviously can no longer use that.â&#x20AC;? Smith told MPs that the Canada-EU trade agreement, which offers the EU an additional 18,000 tonnes of access for its cheese, would reduce farm dairy production quotas and cost the domestic cheese market $300 million in annual sales. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about $60,000 per farm on the income side,â&#x20AC;? he said. Eastern Ontario Conservative MP Pierre Lemieux, parliamentary secretary to agriculture minister Gerry Ritz, argued that increased demand will quickly overwhelm the new import quota and Canadian producers will be no worse off. DFC executive director Richard Doyle said the increasing cheese sales are retail calculations and not sales from farms. He said 16,000 tonnes of fine cheeses to be allowed into Canada from Europe will be taking space in a 50,000 tonne market. The government also argues that the EU has granted Canadian dairy

filled with cheese from subsidized milk, he added. There is already a 4,000 tonne aged cheddar market into the United Kingdom that goes unfilled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a fine cheese as far as weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re concerned because the processors, to fill it, require milk at $28 a hectolitre,â&#x20AC;? he told MPs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Quite frankly, not a single producer in this country based on our cost of production could actually recover their cash costs. No return on investment and no return on labour. Not a single one of them would recover their cash costs.â&#x20AC;?

SeedMaster is launching a new charitable foundation to mark its 10th anniversary this fall. The Saskatchewan manufacturer of seeding technology has created Social Entrepreneurship by Design (SED) aimed at communities in Western Canada and the U.S. Midwest. SED is expected to award grants of $1,000 to $10,000 as seed money to enable community groups to expand their fundraising projects to raise even more money for their causes. SeedMaster is committing $100,000 a year to the program and expects to fund up to 20 projects a year.

SED recently awarded $5,000 to the volunteer fire department in Craik, Sask., to help raise funds for a new fire truck. The money was used to book a comedic play, RiderGirl, which is expected to attract a larger crowd than usual to the fire departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual fundraising dinner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The SED grant lets us charge more for tickets, and draw a larger, younger crowd that will spend more money,â&#x20AC;? said Ron Gilmour, chair of the fire department board.

BEER | ECONOMIC VALUE

SARM | RURAL-URBAN DIVIDE

Beer industry big economic contributor

RMs discuss city, rural relationships

Farmers benefit least | Only $160 million of the $14 billion industry goes to farmers, says report BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Raise a glass to the flourishing Canadian beer sector, although farmers should raise only half a glass. It is a $14 billion dollar industry that generates almost $6 billion in government tax revenues, but the farm base of the Canadian beer industry receives little of it. A Conference Board of Canada study of the “beer economy” calculates that malting barley and hop producers who produce the basic ingredients of the beer industry receive just $160 mil-

lion in annual sales. However, beer manufacturing and sales produce more than 163,000 jobs in the economy, including more than 20,000 jobs on the Prairies. “The beer economy supported one out of every 100 jobs in Canada on average in 2009-11,” said the report, commissioned by Beer Canada, an industry advocacy group. The jobs are generated mainly in the brewing, processing, delivery and sales industries. The report said beer is Canadians’ alcoholic beverage of choice, surpassing wine and spirits by a country

mile. For governments it is a cash cow, generating $3.8 billion in product taxes, $1 billion in corporate income tax and $1 billion in personal income tax from those involved in the industry. “When you drink a bottle of beer, you are supporting not only the beer brewing industry directly but also many other industries along the supply chains, the indirect benefits to the economy of beer consumption,” said the report. In 2012, the Conference Board report said the brewing industry rated fourth in economic contributions

among surveyed Canadian industries, slightly ahead of dairy processing and more than triple the economic contribution of wineries and distilleries. The report did not offer any offsetting estimates of alcohol consumption costs on the Canadian healthcare system. However, it said farmers get little of this benefit. “While barley and hops are important inputs into beer-making, the agriculture industry accounts for only a small amount of the beer economy,” said the report.

Overlapping rural and urban landscapes in Saskatchewan aren’t quite at the level of British Columbia’s Fraser Valley, but that suburban area is starting to develop. Speakers at the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities recent midterm convention in Regina said it’s time for awareness and education. Tom Harrison, a councillor in the RM of Lumsden, said it surrounds six towns, villages and resort villages. “We’ve transitioned from what was purely an agricultural community to one now where we’re seeing probably 70 to 80 percent of our tax revenue come from non-farm rural residential,” he said. Harrison said that has led to discussions about water, waste water and annexation. However, the ruralurban interface hasn’t been discussed much, he added. “One of the things we’re facing is … we have people coming out and moving into our community that don’t understand what maybe normal farming practices are,” he said. He received a call from a resident complaining about the smell from someone spreading manure — he was that someone. RM of Weyburn reeve Carmen Sterling chairs the Rurals Bordering Urbans committee set up in 2012 to examine that interface. She said the disconnect works both ways. “We had a producer say to us, ‘I don’t understand why those guys are watering their lawns. They live on a farm,’ ” she said. Saskatoon mayor Don Atchison said he lived for a time in a rural residential area and he learned about plowing his own snow, taking care of his own garbage and other issues that rural people deal with all the time. “When you talk about watering the grass, we did,” he said. “You have people (moving into rural areas) that have lived in urban areas thinking that the rural life is the panacea for them.” They, as well as industrial users who buy cheaper land outside a city, expect all the services they received in the city. He said education is required, which is why it’s important for rural and urban municipalities to keep talking. Saskatoon and the RM of Corman Park have been working together for years, Atchison said. Last week ,Regina and the surrounding RM of Sherwood settled an annexation dispute and signed a memorandum of understanding to develop a better relationship. Kelly Lafrentz, reeve of the RM of Estevan, said the relationship between the RM and the City of Estevan has evolved because of the oil boom. “Prior to 2003, we basically hated each other,” he said. “But out of necessity we had to start working together and we’ve made some great leaps and bounds.” Lafrentz said it isn’t always roses, and jurisdictions have to learn to give up protectionist attitudes. “For the most part we do put what’s best for the region first,” he said.

‘Extreme rib structure’ nets Jersey cow dairy championship Balanced cow | Holstein, Brown Swiss and Ayrshire gave Jersey run for its money FREELANCE WRITER

TORONTO — It was close, but in the end it was a Jersey cow from Connecticut that came out on top at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair held Nov. 1-10 in Toronto. Page-Crest Excitation Karlie from Arethusa Farms in Litchfield, Conn., was named the supreme grand champion, the most prestigious title in dairy. The grand champions from each of the subsequent dairy breed shows came together in the Scotiabank Ring of Excellence to be evaluated by a panel of dairy judges. They were asked to give points to their top three: three points for their first choice, two for their second choice and one point for their third choice. Points were tallied and the breed with the most points won. The competition was fierce, said Bloyce Thompson of Prince Edward Island, who judged the red and white Holstein category. “It came down to an obvious two.” Royal rules state that because Thompson judged the red and whites earlier, he wasn’t allowed to choose that breed for grand champion, regardless of his preference. It made for an interesting situation. “The red and white ... I knew she was going to probably be in the top three,” said Thompson, who has judged competitions for 12 years. “You’re looking for ‘true type’ for each breed. Each breed has a true type model that they follow. For me, when I was looking, I knew the Jersey was going to be tough to beat because she looked amazing that day and

there was probably a pretty good chance she was going to win it.” However, he said the Holsteins also looked really good. “They both had terrific mammary systems,” he said. “They were very balanced cows. But the Jersey, what made her stand out a little more was that she had an extreme rib structure and depth of body for a young cow. The openness to her ribs was just amazing. The red and white fit in nicely for third.” Although it was a nice looking cow, Thompson felt the brown Swiss was just too young to be made supreme champion. It needed to mature a little more before it could be considered. And although the Ayrshire was a beautiful framed cow, he said its mammary system wasn’t as good as the other four cows in the competition. John Crowley of Hastings, Ont., who had judged the Holstein competition earlier and wasn’t allowed to select the Holstein as grand supreme, said the Jersey was a tremendous cow. “ She’s not the biggest Jersey cow, but she’s just a beautiful, quality cow and she has an exceptional mammary.” He said the Holstein had a tremendous frame, great legs and an unbelievable udder, and the red and white had good attachments and a nice, snug udder, but didn’t have as much veination as the two cows above her. “The Ayrshire’s udder had just a little too much volume for a cow that’s had five or six calves. It wasn’t a snug udder,” he said. He added that the Brown Swiss

didn’t have the “dairynesss that she needed to have, but she still had a beautiful udder for her breed.”

RESEARCH | FOOD SPOILAGE

Study reveals how fungus infects plants Experts seek to prevent pathogens from suppressing plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immune system, making it vulnerable to infection BY MARGARET EVANS FREELANCE WRITER

LINDELL BEACH, B.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Remember that dish of strawberries that got pushed to the back of the fridge and eventually grew a coat of grey, fuzzy mould? A research team at the University of California, Riverside, has discovered the mechanism by which a virulent fungus, botrytis cinerea, which causes grey mould disease, manages to infect fruit, vegetables and bulb crops. Botrytis cinerea most notably affects grapes: its â&#x20AC;&#x153;botrytisâ&#x20AC;? reference comes from ancient Greek meaning â&#x20AC;&#x153;diseased grapes.â&#x20AC;? In viticulture, the destructive mould is known as botrytis bunch rot and can be triggered by tiny wounds to the fruit caused by insects, wind or accidental damage. In horticulture, the fungus is known as grey mould. Only occasionally, the fungus can cause â&#x20AC;&#x153;winegrowerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lung,â&#x20AC;? a rare allergic respiratory reaction in predisposed individuals. Finding ways to prevent food spoilage is microbiologyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major contri-

bution to the future of food security and distribution. The more researchers can understand the science behind the causes of food loss and waste, the greater the chance of reducing waste and helping feed a growing population. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those very aggressive pathogens can really decimate plants,â&#x20AC;? said Hailing Jin, a professor in plant pathology and microbiology at UC Riverside. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They can affect more than 200 plant species and almost all the plants are for food. It is very common. If you leave your grapes on the table for several days, the pathogens will come. If you leave them at four degrees in the fridge for only a week, the pathogens come and you will see mould on the fruit.â&#x20AC;? Jinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research team discovered an aggressive â&#x20AC;&#x153;virulence mechanismâ&#x20AC;? that can silence, or hamper, a host plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immunity genes. According to the news release from UC Riverside, many fungal pathogens can deliver protein effectors that they secrete into the cells of host plants. These protein effectors suppress the host plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immune

In the case of an aggressive fungal pathogen such as botrytis cinerea, small RNAs (technically known as Bc-sRNAs) are delivered into host cells to â&#x20AC;&#x153;hijackâ&#x20AC;? the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own RNA interference machinery to silence the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immune responsive genes. The pathogen transfers aggressive small RNA effectors of its own into the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cells to suppress its immunity so that the pathogen can establish itself and infect the plant. RNA is ribonucleic acid, a family of molecules that perform important roles in coding, regulating and expressing genes. Along with DNA and proteins, they are essential for all forms of life. This new study represents the first example of how a fungal pathogen uses small RNAs to suppress a host

plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immunity and ultimately establish infection. Knocking out the hostâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immune system is a battle tactic with enormously successful consequences for the virus. The goal of Jinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research is to understand the molecular mechanism of a plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immune system in the fight against fungus pathogens. Her research seeks to understand how these pathogens manage to compromise a host plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immune system with a strategy of its own to gain control of the plant. As destructive as botrytis is, its infection has proven to have value in making dessert wines, notably a Hungarian sweet wine made from ripe grapes infected by the fungus. It is known as noble rot, and this fungal condition is harmless to humans. The grey fungus infects the grapes when they are still on the vine during wet weather. The grapes then become partially raisined during dry conditions follow ing the high humidity. During this drying period, the fungus concentrates and intensifies the sugars and acids in the grapes, giving sweet wines their unique qualities. References to wines made from botrytised grapes appeared as long ago as 1576 and possibly earlier in Hungary. With better understanding, scientists will be able to develop more effective means of disease control. Jinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lab is focused on the study of small RNA-mediated gene regulation in plants. The discovery of a bacteria-induced small RNA in her lab provided the first example of the regulatory role of small, interfering RNAs in plant immunity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our study discovered a novel new mechanism that the pathogen uses so we can explain why they are so successful,â&#x20AC;? said Jin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What I mean is that the effector molecules produced by the pathogen are short RNA molecules, which donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t code any proteins but are regulating genes. They are used for silencing, or suppressing, (a hostâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) genes. They can be delivered into the host cell.â&#x20AC;? Jin said the small RNAs interfered with the expression of genes not only in one species but across a broad spectrum of plant species. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the research only studied what happened in one organism, but now several studies have shown that this can happen across different species,â&#x20AC;? she said. Jin said that more needs to be known about these small RNAs: how they work and how they can be blocked. The study, Fungal Small RNAs Suppress Plant Immunity by Hijacking Host RNA Interference Pathways, was published in the journal Science.

FARMFAIR INTERNATIONAL | CATTLE WINNERS

B.C. producer ‘shell shocked’ at Farmfair win Supreme champion | B.C. Angus producer wins for top bull, Alberta family wins for top female BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

EDMONTON — One of Tanya Belsham’s dreams was to win a Dodge truck from showing cattle. Her dream came true Nov. 9 when Belsham’s Black Angus bull won supreme champion at Farmfair International. “It’s overwhelming,” said Belsham

of Poplar Meadows Angus near Houston, B.C. “I’m still shell shocked. It’s a lot of hard work and to reap the reward so early in my career is amazing.” Belsham’s family has been involved in cattle for years, but five years ago she stepped into the show cattle world. She bought the two-year-old bull from Rob and Gail Hamilton of Cochrane, Alta.

The winning bull was at its mother’s side when the Hamiltons won supreme champion female at Farmfair two years ago. The Hamilton family is part owners of the bull. Belsham said her biggest problem showing cattle is her northern British Columbia location. She shows cattle throughout her home province, but it is a big commitment to come to Edmonton, and then on to Regina for

at winning,” said Wilson, whose family ranches near Bashaw, Alta. The winning cow was at its mother’s side when the mother won supreme champion two years earlier. “We believe strongly in the breeding. This win is such a big, big bonus.” Dave Fiddler, Farmfair’s show manager, said purebred and commercial cattle numbers were up 300 head to 1,100 this year because of the eight national cattle shows. There was only one national show last year. Fiddler said the number of exhibitors increased this year, but each brought fewer cattle. “I don’t think they have big families coming here. It’s a lot of work.”

EDMONTON — Three lots of bred heifers at Farmfair International’s commercial bred heifer sale came with a long list of benefits, just like the sticker in the window of a new pick-up truck. The cattle were genomics tested and came with their own sticker listing average daily gain, back fat measurements, dry matter intake and a long list of characteristics to help cattle producers improve efficiency and profitability. However, just like a truck, it was the looks rather than the fancy stuff that sold the animals. Mike Wurz of the Morinville Colony near Morinville, Alta., didn’t care about the genomics information. He bought the five bred heifers from Olds College and five bred heifers from Agriculture Canada’s research farm in Lacombe, Alta., because they were good looking heifers and calved at the right time. “Genomics doesn’t enthuse me. I’m a Holstein guy and everyone’s doing genomics, but I’m old school,” Wurz said. “I want tried, tested and proven.” Wurz paid $2,000 each for the black baldie bred heifers from the Agriculture Canada research farm. “These heifers have all the traits I want. The Herefords put some brains between the ears and the Angus gives them some umpf so they get up and suck,” said Wurz. “They’re uniform and docile. Docile is something you can’t get enough of.” Wurz paid $1,400 each for the five Black Angus, Simmental, Gelbvieh cross cattle from Olds College. “Olds College has a good breeding program,” he said. “I need heifers that come out of a good breeding program.” Wurz also bought another pen of 10 Angus cross cattle that weren’t genomics tested from Beaton Creek Ranch in Dixonville, Alta., for $1,425 each. The three groups are bred to calve before and after his main herd of 500 cows on the colony. The calving dates also helped influence his purchase. Jeff Nilsson of Morinville bought the other genomically tested cattle from the University of Alberta’s Kinsella Research Ranch for $1,400 each. Like Wurz, he bought the cattle because of their expected calving dates rather than the genomics testing. “They fit into the calving period of South Peace Stock Farms,” said Nilsson, who bought the cattle for his uncle, Brian Nilsson. “They were the right breed and the right kind. They were Angus based.” It’s the first time genomically tested bred heifers have been sold from the three research facilities. Genomics may not be the way the buyers at Farmfair chose their cattle, but it will be part of the future of cattle production, said Tom LynchStaunton, director of industry rela-

tions with Livestock Gentec at the University of Alberta. “These are tools that can help cattle producers select animals,” he said. The 95 head sold in 14 lots from $1,300 to $2,050. Farmfair International ran Nov. 3-10.

Project to spark community development The partnership will look at ways to improve rural and Aboriginal communities BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Federated Co-operatives Ltd. has contributed $1 million in a two-year partnership with the University of Saskatchewan to explore co-operative business development. The partners involved in the project will work with rural and Aboriginal communities to explore ways to expand the co-operative business model in communities where co-ops have not previously been present. “We believe at Federated as a cooperative that there is some value in our model in co-operative principles, in co-operative models, in the values that we represent that by working together we can find solutions,” said FCL chief executive officer Scott Banda. “We don’t have all the answers, but we believe that if we have come

Scott Banda of Federated Co-operatives Limited announces an investment of $1 million from FCL in a two year partnership to explore co-operative business development in rural and Aboriginal communities in Canada. | WILLIAM DEKAY PHOTO together and unleash our human capital, unleash our financial capital, that we can find solutions to anything,” he said during the Nov. 13 announcement. The two-year project is led by the university’s Centre for the Study of Co-operatives in partnership with the Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy (JSGS), the International Centre for Northern Governance and Development, the Edwards School of Business and the Plunkett Foundation in the United Kingdom. Banda said Western Canada’s demographics are rapidly changing. Rural populations continue to decline, but

the Aboriginal sector is growing. “The markets we operate in and various commodities all across Western Canada, and the communities, just continue to change physically, and the definition of a community is changing,” he said. “We have social communities, we have business communities and Aboriginal communities and how these all fit together to collaborate because we’re all in this together.” George Lafond, treaty commissioner for the province, welcomed the initiative, saying it was long overdue. “My view is that the social capital in Saskatchewan is at an all-time low.

We need to bring that social capital back up. We have to begin to understand each other,” he said. Professor Murray Fulton of the JSGS there is a need to improve the relationships between First Nations communities and non First Nations, and work together to propel themselves forward. “The starting point is to go into these communities, find out what people need and find out the business models that are going to really work to provide those needs, not for the short run but for a much longer period of time,” he said. He added that an obvious example is a community that lacks a grocery

store. Steps would be taken to create a store that would be owned and operated on a co-operative and community basis. Other examples might include housing, access to credit or provision of business services. Fulton said the project will provide leadership for communities to assess their own specific needs. “We know there’s a certain kind of assistance needed, but at the end of the day the impetus has to come from the communities themselves.” FCL will consider long-term funding to support identified projects following an assessment of the program in late 2015.

Through the expansion of maize cultivation in the past few years in particular, the plough has regained its importance as a primary cultivator. The reduction of plant diseases, mechanical pest control due to increasing chemical resistance, and the fight against new pests, are among the most important tasks facing a plough today. Recent research has shown that loosening and aerating the root zone, with a plough, can improve the formation of rape roots, for example, thus laying the foundation for high and guaranteed yields.

CHINESE ECONOMY | LAND RIGHTS

Land reform planned to aid push for city dwellers Urban vision | China wants 390 million rural residents to move to cities to spur economy CHENGDU, China (Reuters) — Tan Yingyu is one of China’s 200 million migrant workers, and like many he is stuck. He does not want to return to his village but also cannot become a legal resident in the city of Chengdu, where he has worked for nearly 20 years. His dilemma highlights a key issue for China’s reformist leaders as they look for ways to encourage more people to move to cities to help turn a credit- and investment-driven economy into a consumer-powered one. If rural Chinese are given formal rights to their land, they could cash in its value and feel more secure about moving to work in cities. If they are given residency status in cities, rather than having it tied to their home village, they would have access to social welfare, making it more likely they would spend more and possibly move their families to live in the cities as well. A government urbanization drive may fall behind without reform of land and residency rights, endangering broader economic reform and even risking social unrest. “I won’t go back to work the land, but I cannot afford to buy a property here; prices are too high,” said Tan, pointing to towering apartment blocks in the southwestern city of Chengdu. Top leaders are meeting in secret in Beijing to plot an economic agenda for the next decade and will be looking at pilot schemes in Chengdu and elsewhere that test land and residency reform for clues on what changes to make. However, the Chengdu pilot program and others that allow farmers to lease or sell their land have been tangled with problems, raising questions about how quickly they could be introduced nationally. Reforms in the 1980s assigned farmland to households but reserved formal ownership to the village collective. Land certificates are imprecise at best, and many rural house-

The Chinese Communist Party is working on fiscal and tax reform, ways to give farmers more property rights and a sustainable social security system. | REUTERS/STRINGER PHOTO holds lack documentation, although Beijing has given the provinces responsibility for registering title to land nationwide over the next five years. The lack of clear land rights makes many farmers vulnerable to land grabs by local administrations for development. It is a major source of government revenue and equally a major source of discontent among farmers who say they are not compensated fairly. “It’s not an ideological problem, but a problem of interests.… Local governments still want to monopolize land sales and repay their debt,” said Tao Ran, an economist at Renmin University in Beijing. Closely tied to land reform is a need to relax a rigid household registration system, which means Tan has no access to social welfare, such as medical care, outside of his home village. This reduces the incentive for rural Chinese to move to urban areas. Tan does not want to formally cut his ties with his village 90 kilometres away because he cannot sell the half an acre of land his family has tended for more than 50 years. It is now looked after by a relative. However, until he cuts his ties, he

cannot register as a resident of Chengdu, where he trades in second-hand furniture and appliances. His wife also works in Chengdu, while his daughter and son work elsewhere in China. Only his mother remains in the village. Land reform and household registration are two key issues if China is to succeed in its plan to persuade 390 million rural dwellers, which is equivalent to the population of the United States, to migrate to urban areas. That itself is central to the broader plan to develop an economy led more by domestic consumption as Beijing looks for new economic drivers after three decades of double digit growth. Land rights issue Even if farmers or rural households do not want to lease or sell their land, the lack of recognized legal rights reduces their incentive to develop businesses where they live. The pilot program in Chengdu and other cities have been testing reforms of the established land rules, rooted in Chinese communist ideology, and the household registration system, which dates back to 1958. The project in Chengdu allows

farmers or village landholders to sell their land rights on an exchange, receiving cash in return. However, the watchword is caution. “The steps cannot be too big,” said Hou Peng, a senior official at the Chengdu Agriculture Equity Exchange. “Land reforms are very complicated,” Hou said in an interview inside the exchange’s new building, where big electronic screens display land deals. “The interests of many people will be affected.” Hou said land reform has to be gradual to maintain social stability by ensuring farmers do not rush to sell their land before they have secured long-term jobs in cities. The last thing that the central government would want is cities filling rapidly with unemployed migrants. Although Chengdu’s model offers farmers a cash-out option, they still have their limitations. First, only the state can designate farmland for construction use, which is where big profits lie, under a national policy to ensure that a minimum of 300 million acres is put aside for farmland. Transferring farming rights to someone else is more likely to gener-

ate an income stream, rather than big profits. One option being considered by policymakers is to allow farmers to use land rights to secure bank loans or turn them into shares in large-scale farming companies, government economists say. Possibly the biggest difficulty reformers have to overcome is an inherent conflict of interest on the part of local authorities where migrants are registered. Compensating them fairly for land sales would help achieve national urbanization goals. However, seizure of farmland by local governments, with little or no compensation, is widespread and sparks tens of thousands of protests a year. As a result, local authorities will be reluctant to support changes that might mean they can profit less from land sales unless they are allowed to raise revenues in other ways or the distribution of revenues between local and central government is shifted in their favour. Such changes would require major fiscal and tax reforms. “Local authorities want to monopolize land supply through requisition,” said Shi Xiaomin, vice-head of the China Society of Economic Reform, a government think-tank. “Allowing rural collective land to enter the market will break that monopoly.” Even so, in the case of Chengdu, government revenue from land sales still far outstrips land sales by farmers in the exchange scheme. Chengdu government land sales were 46.3 billion in just the first eight months of this year, local media reports said. Land transactions on t h e e x c ha n g e s i n c e 2 0 0 8 hav e totalled $3.4 to $5 billion, Hou’s figures show. A Tsinghua University sur vey showed that 64 million Chinese households have had their land seized or homes demolished over decades of rapid urbanization, leaving many feeling disaffected. “The government says it is building the new countryside, but the purpose is to appropriate our land for their own development,” said 62-year-old Li in Xinfu village, part of Chengdu, who only gave his surname. His house was demolished earlier this year and he has been promised a new home in two to three years.

TRADE | EUROPEAN UNION CONCERNS

EU-U.S. trade deal upsets consumer, green groups Watered down standards | Some worry more GM products would be allowed and that labelling rules would be loosened BRUSSELS, Belgium (Reuters) — Consumers risk losing out in a proposed free trade deal between Europe and the United States if big business succeeds in loosening standards, European consumer and environmental groups have warned. U.S. and European Union negotiators held a second round of talks in Brussels last week on what would be the world’s biggest free trade deal, with a special focus on reducing regulatory barriers to trade. Monique Goyens, director general

of the European consumer organization BEUC, acknowledged that a trade agreement could lower prices and give consumers more choice. “But all the benefits could be undermined by the risks of watering down European consumer regulation,” she said. BEUC, Friends of the Earth and the European Public Health Alliance told a joint news conference they were concerned that mutual recognition of regulations, designed to cut costs, would in fact result in the adoption of the lowest standards.

“It’s difficult to see how you can have mutual recognition unless it’s a race-to-the-bottom approach,” said Friends of the Earth Europe director Magda Stoczkiewicz. EU trade commissioner Karel De Gucht has repeatedly said EU regulation on genetically modified food will not be changed, but the U.S. considers this a trade barrier that must be reduced. European consumer groups fear a deal will lead to more GM crops used in products sold in Europe, where there is widespread public distrust of

the technology, with looser labelling rules preventing consumers from making informed choices. The European Union has already dropped its ban on certain U.S. meat imports such as beef washed in lactic acid and poultry washed in chlorine. The U.S. is set to reopen its market, which has been closed to EU beef since 1998 because of BSE. The European associations said their comments were not designed as an attack on U.S. standards, but European consumers were broadly

protected by a requirement that corporations prove their toys, chemicals and other products do not cause harm. The U.S. approach is more to allow consumers to obtain damages for actual harm, they said. Among the European associations’ greatest concerns is a provision that would allow foreign companies to bring claims against a country if it breaches the treaty. They said this would limit a country’s right to pass laws to protect its citizens or the environment.

With Fuse fungicide, it doesn’t stand a chance.

And let’s face it, Fusarium head blight (FHB) is nothing to take chances on.

Analysts differ on Chinese wheat import estimates BEIJING, China (Reuters) — Top Chinese grain trader COFCO estimates that China’s wheat imports would amount to no more than five million tonnes in the 2013-14 marketing year,. The forecast is much lower than what analysts had expected and what data on shipments to date have indicated. Weather damage this spring to China’s wheat crop in major production areas Henan and Shandong has pushed up analysts’ estimates for its 2013-14 imports to 10 million tonnes, which would be the highest level in a decade. China National Grain and Oils Information Center, an official thinktank, revised its predictions for China’s wheat imports late month to 7.5 million tonnes for the year ending May 2014. China has already ordered 3.7 million tonnes from the United States and 2.2 million from Australia, as well as 220,000 tonnes from France, the centre said in a report, for a total of more than six million tonnes. COFCO president Yu Xubo cast doubt on the bullish forecasts and provided his own estimate of three to five million tonnes. “I don’t think there will be such large imports. We always have a good harvest, and stocks are very full,” he said. Aggressive orders by Chinese buyers have already driven up U.S. wheat prices by 4.6 percent in the July-September quarter, while EU wheat futures touched a 3½ month high earlier this month. Chinese wheat prices reached record highs last month, driven by a shortage of high-quality grain.

GENETICALLY MODIFIED CORN | OPPOSITION

Mexico’s culture, religion cause divide on GM corn Supporters of GM corn like its higher yields, but in the land known as the birthplace of corn, traditions run deep MEXICO CITY, Mexico (Reuters) — After pioneering the cultivation of corn thousands of years ago, Mexico must overcome the weight of history if it is to give the go-ahead to allow genetically modified strains. Religion, culture and science are competing in the debate over how acceptable GM corn is in a country where farmers first domesticated the crop about 8,000 years ago. Last month, a federal judge in Mexico City created a stir by ordering a temporary halt to any new GM corn permits, accepting a lawsuit brought by opponents of the crop. It was widely interpreted as a definitive ban on the commercial use of GM corn in Mexico, but experts say it will likely just delay any resolution into 2014 or beyond. With Mexican output falling short of demand, GM backers are keen to open the door to firms such as Monsanto, which have applications pending to plant some 6.2 million acres of GM corn. The agriculture ministry must first finish designating the “centres of origin” where GM corn farming would be banned, and set other

safety regulations before permits can be issued. And it must also wait until the legal wrangling has been settled since the federal judge sided with opponents, finding that GM corn has already been planted illegally in Mexico. “It’s a very controversial topic,” agriculture minister Enrique Martinez said recently. “This will have a final resolution that adheres to what the scientists decide.” Despite its humble origins, corn is

by far the planet’s most produced grain, dwarfing wheat and rice output. Mexico now plants 17.8 million acres of corn annually. Farmers grow mostly white corn, which is used for human consumption, including the country’s staple tortillas. Last year they produced some 21 million tonnes of corn, or about three percent of global production. But the country consumed roughly 30 million tonnes, making up the difference with U.S. imports.

Mexico already imports tens of thousands of tonnes of GM yellow corn each year, largely for animal feed, and permits planting of other GM crops, mainly cotton and soybeans. Supporters of GM corn like Mexico’s corn farmers’ federation argue it can boost yields by up to 15 percent. Their peers in the United States, Brazil and Argentina — the world’s top three corn exporters — are already producing large quantities. But the crop has a unique place in Mexico. The 49 landraces of corn, or distinct strains improved over time by traditional methods, and thousands of individual varieties, are often tied to specific indigenous groups and religious ceremonies. Scientists say modern corn comes from teosinte, a tiny wild grain native to southern Mexico. The ancient Maya believed the gods made the first humans out of corn, after rejecting earlier clay and wood forms. “The women and men of corn saw as much as the gods,” reads the Popol Vuh, the sacred text of the Maya, who still live in Mexico. “Their glance ranged over the whole world.” In 2009, during the previous administration of president Felipe Calderon, changes to Mexico’s bio-safety law allowed biotech crop developers for the first time to experiment with GM corn trials in approved regions of Mexico. Since then, dozens of pilot permits

have tested GM corn strains for their tolerance to herbicides as well as resistance to insects and drought. But Calderon left office without approving large-scale GM corn plantings. Those corn permits could have been approved as early as February, but the change of government led to a delay. GM corn backers like Alejandro Monteagudo of industry lobby AgroBIO, argue Mexico has no reason to fear tinkering with DNA in search of larger yields and hardier plants. “The government’s biosecurity measures allow us to be calm that (commercial GM corn plantings) are done legally and with no impact on the environment or biodiversity,” he said. But opponents say Monsanto’s proprietary seeds essentially privatize corn production and threaten age-old farming practices by making farmers buy new GM seeds rather than harvest them from Mexico’s current crops. Unsurprisingly, they applaud the judge’s ruling last month. “This decision is unprecedented,” said Aleira Lara, the head of Greenpeace Mexico’s sustainable agriculture campaign. Greenpeace, which is not a party to the case, will immediately file a separate suit if the agriculture ministry approves any permits as the court case proceeds, Lara said. The extended political and legal fight leaves five applications for commercial-scale GM fields in limbo.

AGRITECHNICA | TIRES

Fuel savings rationale for flatter tires Looser soil, better yields | Running at the lowest recommended pressures saves fuel and reduces compaction STORIES BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

HANOVER, Germany — Running on flat tires used to be considered a sign of a lazy farmer. However, German researchers have shown that flatter tires can result in fatter wallets for farmers. Research has supported the commonly held view that tires are better able to transfer power to the field when the pressure is lower. However, not everyone has equated that idea with improved fuel efficiency. “What matters most for fuel efficiency is getting power to the ground. When you have high pressures you can manage high horsepower, but you will be fueling up a lot more often,” said farm machinery engineer Georg Ebbeler. “You just end up moving some dirt around, and that is a problem, too.”

GEORG EBBELER ENGINEER

Ebbeler and his colleagues from the South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences in Germany tested the theories about lower pressure, soil compaction and fuel use. “We also found that the reduced soil compaction was important to improving yields as plants’ roots get more opportunity to grow,” he said. “That means bigger, healthier plants and fewer field losses.”

Tire pressure’s effect on fuel efficiency was demonstrated by the South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences at Agritechnica in Hanover, Germany. | PAUL YANKO PHOTO Last week, the engineers and agricultural science students staged a large track at the Agritechnica farm show in Hanover that was filled with sand to simulate a field. It was wide enough to accommodate several passes of a tractor. They pulled one tractor with anoth-

er, back and forth through the track in a set gear and at a set speed. One pass was done with tires at a recommended 23.2 pounds per sq. inch of inflation and a second, parallel pass was completed a lower one at eight pounds. The tire pressure was managed with a central inflation system.

Fuel was fed into the tractor every half hour during the day for seven days from a pair of tall graduated cylinders so that the show crowds could easily monitor fuel use. The extension research performed on the fairgrounds matched what had been done in the field.

A pair of graduated cylinders measures fuel use at 23.2 and eight pounds per sq. inch. The eight lb. rate was 14 percent more efficient. | MICHAEL RAINE PHOTO

“We saved 13 to 14 percent (on fuel) here in our test track. We got similar or better fuel savings in our field trials,” Ebbeler said. “There are several factors. One is that these special tires are made to CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

AGRITECHNICA | CANADIAN EXHIBITORS

Agritechnica ‘lives up to the legend’ says Sask. manufacturer HANOVER, Germany — The world’s largest farm show has seen an increased Canadian presence in recent years. Agritechnica, which has run every second year since 1985, began to attract more North American attendees and equipment company exhibitors in 2007. Mary Jane Duncan, who farms south of Regina, said the German show is legendary among farmers, and this year she decided to attend with her boyfriend, Craig Edger, a producer from Coronach, Sask. “It’s a bit overwhelming. You could fit a whole bunch of Regina’s (Canada’s Farm Progress) shows inside this one. And there is machinery that

Craig and I stand in front of and try to figure out what it does,” she said. “There’s people from all over the world here.” The couple were two of 2,000 Canadians at the show. Reinhard Grandke, who heads the farmer’s organization that runs Agritechnica, said the show has attracted significant interest from around the world. “ The (equipment) producers come here to improve their markets in Europe, sure, but they also come here to build markets for their products in Russia, the Ukraine, Kazahkastan or South America. But also at home in North America or Australia,” he said.

“It is a world forum for agricultural technology.” The show attracted 1,500 international exhibitors this year from 47 countries. Non-German exhibitors comprised half the participants, and 48 came from the United States. The Netherlands and China were the two largest foreign contingents Greg Haukaas, who builds bale handling systems and other farm e q u i p m e nt a s w e l l a s o r i g i na l equipment manufacturer parts for other farm equipment companies, was among 55 Canadian manufacturers. The Saskatchewan machinery maker said the show is larger and busier than he expected.

“It lives up to the legend,” he said. “If it is farm machinery, you will find it at this event. I haven’t even begun to see a small portion of what is here and I’ve already seen more than I could have imagined.” Edger said he had planned to attend in 2011 but couldn’t make it at the last minute. “There is a whole bunch of European tillage machinery here that wouldn’t be a fit in Western Canada, but there are dozens of (high clearance) sprayers that you could drop right onto my farm,” he said. “Every prairie farmer should see this, at least once. But it might be a little addictive. There are too many great ideas here.”

Grandke said the show is one of the more important ways that the 24,000 farmer members of the German Farmers Society (DLG), get information about their industry. The 130-year-old DLG is an independent, farmer run, non-profit organization with a mandate to provide extension agriculture information to producers. Beyond organizing field days and trade shows, the 200 staff and members of more than 20 farmer and expert committees perform machinery testing, produce agronomic and economic analysis and act as a voice for producers’ issues. Agritechnica attracts 400,000 people over its seven day run.

Higher commodity prices boost ag technology development PRODUCTION MATTERS

MICHAEL RAINE

ANOVER, Germany —The Western Producer was in Germany last week for the giant farm show, Agritechnica. Every two years, the world comes to Hanover to find out how the planet’s engineers, machinery designers and technology providers have been keeping themselves busy. This edition of the event tells me that those folks haven’t been getting much sleep lately. Not only have they been building and selling machinery at record rates, but companies have been pouring money into their research and development departments. Profitability in the grain and oilseed sector has driven those sales. For many successful companies in the farm sector, new product devel-

elongate the tread as the pressure falls, and that means the load is carried over a larger, but not much wider, area.” The lower inflation keeps the tires from sinking into the soil as much, which reduces the amount of “bulldozing” that occurs as dirt is forced into a mound in front of the tire. “The tractor must then climb up hill all the time,” he said. “You are having to constantly dig your way out of a hole, and this takes power that should be used moving the load of the implement.… Moving that dirt around in the field causes compaction.” Reduced slippage on the fairground’s test track also proved to be similar to that of the field research. “We found that if we cut the pressure in half, using the high flexion tires we could reduce slippage by up to 20 percent. That is a 20 percent reduction in time in the field,” he said. “At 50 euro ($70) per hour for a tractor and labour, 20 percent would save you a lot money … but most farmers don’t have central tire inflation. That is where new high (deflection) tires come in. You can run the same pressure on the road without risking damaging the sidewalls or losing control of the tractor at higher speeds on pavement.… One pressure for both jobs. The Bib tires from Michelin were the ones we used. They have them for small, large tractors, combines and sprayers, but many companies now offer this technology.… I know lots of farmers won’t just go out and buy a new set of tires just for the savings in fuel and time, but they should do the math and see how long it might take to pay for the technology on their own farm. It might pay off faster than they think, especially on big farms like in Canada.” To view a video of the demonstration, visit www.producer.com/sections/video.

opment is paid for with a steady increase in sales. As a result, farmer spending on new gear is benefiting the next generations of machinery technology and accelerating the progress of developments that will in turn make producers more profitable in the future. Only six years ago, I was writing stories about layoffs in the farm machinery industry and. More quietly, engineering group leaders were telling me they had hard drives full of great ideas that wouldn’t be getting off their electronic drawing boards unless they involved reducing farm equipment manufacturing costs. A decade of unpredictable and gen-

erally diminishing returns for farmers had taken its toll on machinery makers. Governments had begun to reduce financial security programs for farmers, so the outlook was for fewer, larger operations and tight operating budgets. At that time, one couldn’t help but notice when attending agricultural engineering conferences that there was a lack of young engineers brimming with the skills and enthusiasm that are needed to feed any industrial sector’s technological growth. They were as rare as young farmers during the same period. New companies enter ing the industry were rare. Back then, veter-

an ag engineers spoke of the pending changes to diesel engine regulations and what a challenge it was going to be to get farmers to pay increased costs for new, environmentally friendly machiner y that would deliver marginal benefits to the grower. Those imposed regulatory costs were taking up machinery R and D dollars and there was little corporate appetite to spend on new product development, especially if it involved retooling a factory or worse, making a major technology shift. Wind the clock forward to 2013 and fly half way around the world to Germany, where last week, 27 football field sized buildings were

crammed with technology that in 2007 was mostly just hard drives full of dreams. The agricultural technology generated from the current commodity price boom will make farmers more efficient and profitable. In turn, that will fuel producers’ future purchases and result in more money spent on engineers’ salaries and new companies entering the farm equipment industry. It will be good for farmers, and the cycle will repeat as long as there is money in the system. Michael Raine is managing editor and Production editor at The Western Producer.

International farm machinery sales outlook bright Solid farm profits | German co-op says an optimistic view of future has sparked a record pace of farm machinery sales BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

HANOVER, Germany — Farmers plan to buy machinery at record or near record levels for the rest of 2013 and into next year, says the head of a German farm co-operative. Reinhard Grandke, chief executive officer of Germany’s large farmer cooperative DLG, says his organization’s analysis of the international markets for farm equipment and technology is that sales will be similar to the record year of 2012 or exceed that.

Grandke said the world’s farmers have confidence that farming will continue to be profitable. He said even sectors such as dairy in Europe and the United States and hogs worldwide are seeing better returns. “Arable farmers, (cereal, pulse and oilseed) producers, have had excellent economic conditions since 2008, and livestock sectors are seeing improvements,” he said during the German Agricultural Society’s farm show, Agritechnica, in Hanover Nov. 12-16. “The plan is to invest in new equipment.”

DLG’s research indicates that farmers expect several years of steady markets and reasonably low input costs, and that level of security is prompting them to plan capital investments at near record rates. “Farmers assess their current business situation fairly stably,” he said. “It has been five years since the crisis of Lehman Brothers, and farmers are developing a certain serenity about their futures,” he said. DLG’s polling suggests that 50 percent of farmers in Germany and Poland are planning to make significant investments in the next year.

It’s only 30 percent in France, where producers are experiencing tougher times, due in large part to higher dependency on livestock for returns. Two-thirds of those investments will be made in field equipment. In the United Kingdom, 30 percent of producers plan to buy before then end of next year. Agritechnica is the largest farm technology event in the world, with more than 2,700 exhibitors. Fifty-five are from Canada. Grandke said producers around the globe are planning to buy. North American farmers are looking for

more single pass seeding and reduced tillage technology. Brazil and most of South America are focused on greater efficiency when operating large farm sizes and, like the United States and Canada, want to cut operations and tillage. South America is also interested in improvements to high throughput combine harvesting tools. Russia wants improvements to farm agronomy and management information and overall operational training for producers and workers. Asia wants greater crop production efficiency as farm size and mechanization grows. China is especially looking for these tools as land market restrictions are relaxed. Africa shows signs of becoming a large market in the future for equipment and plant genetics. Grandke said that in the short term, Africa is looking to improve crop yields and production efficiencies. Mechanization is the next step for the continent. “We are seeing a lot of desire for basic technology there,” he said. In the European Union, farmers are asking for more precision agriculture tools to customize operations. Berndt Schuler of VDMA, the German association that represents agricultural manufacturers, said farmers’ optimism has never been better, which promises potential sales for equipment manufacturers. He said worldwide production of machinery is on a record pace of growth and will likely have increased more than 10 percent when 2013’s sales are assessed. Next year will produce similar sales figures, he added. He said China now represents 19 percent of production. “China’s production is domestically based and they use what they build. However, their world share is playing a substantial role, increasing the world’s supply of machinery.”

SAVED SEED | CERTIFICATION

ECONOMICS OF CERTIFIED SEED VS. FARMER-SAVED SEED

Weighing the cost of certified seed

For these comparisons, the cost of certified seed is set at $8 per bushel. The harvest price of farmer-saved seed is $5 per bu. plus $1.61 per bu. in storage, interest, cleaning, treating and other costs for a total cost of $6.61 per bu.

AGRONOMY PRECISELY

GARTH DONALD

armers look at many costs when they make a crop plan. One of the things I hear from a lot of growers is that certified seed doesn’t pay year after year. Moving from Manitoba to Alberta in 1997, I wondered why there were not more seed growers in my new home province? And where did the farmers get their seed? Most growers in central Alberta use bin-run cereals as their seed source, which means much of the seed is one year off of being certified. However, not all of it gets planted every year. As well, seed reproduction as a part of a commercial crop doesn’t generally maintain the quality of the genetics. One of the things that we in the agriculture industry must realize is that seven years of seed sitting in a bin doesn’t mean that it is still one year off of certified. Kevin Dhuyvetter, an extension agricultural economist with Kansas State University, has studied the issue of saved seed. His work takes

into account the value of certified over common seed, including the cost of cleaning, treatment and storage. The numbers in this column are based on his work and are a general guide. They can be adjusted to reflect a producer’s personal information. A small increase in yield, say five percent, delivers an $8.04 per acre return in this model. I’m not saying growers shouldn’t use their own seed. Rather, it is to point out the inaccurate perception that saved seed improves margins by cutting costs. It is scientifically proven that the longer you go with the same seed, the lower the yield and the greater the levels of contamination, disease susceptibility and reduced protein levels. Growers are often amazed when they compare a new variety to the old standby and wonder why they are getting a higher yield and protein. Some credit can go to breeding improvements. The industry has seen a 10 percent or more increase in yield over the past decade because of better genetics. However, part of the benefit growers receive when they use certified seed comes from growing better quality seed, fewer generations away from the source. New genetics often provide better disease or insect tolerance that benefits growers in certain years. It is the

combination of traits and better quality seed that combine to create the yield enhancement. I am not saying you have to change varieties every year, but I am saying there is a benefit to using certified seed every year. For one thing, you have the opportunity to try something new more often. As well, just because a variety does well on paper doesn’t mean it is going to work on your farm. Even when you feel you have the right variety for your operation, regularly refreshing that seed pays off. One of the reasons I have such a strong feeling about certified seed, beyond seeing the results on customers’ farms, is that I have witnessed first-hand the value of certified seed on our farm. At a minimum, we have been breaking even on the seed cost. Add to that the benefits of great genetics and quality seed will pay off, especially in challenging years when poor weather, disease or pests come to call. Farmers often cut seed treatments when input costs increase. They are one of farmers’ most valuable tools when it comes to reduced tillage seeding because they help ward off soil and seed borne diseases and creates the foundation for a healthy plant. Considering that we are finding evidence of a potential wireworm problem developing this fall, one

AGRIBITION | CATTLE

Flood doesn’t stop ranchers Ranch recovery | Couple shows cattle despite losing 28 animals in Alberta disaster STORIES BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

REGINA — Showing cattle was a tour de force this year for one young couple from High River, Alta. Caught in the epicentre of Alberta’s worst flood in history, Dan Hitchner and Megan Bond lost 28 cattle, pastureland, corrals and a truck. They almost lost their spirit as the swirling, dirty water receded and they started to take into account what they lost. Eighty cows are left on their Abacus Angus ranch, and they decided to show people they had survived by taking a show string to the Olds Fall Classic, Northlands Farmfair and Canadian Western Agribition. They may not have won banners, but they won praise and sympathy for facing such adversity. Hitchner and Bond remember those first scary hours with such clarity that it might have been yesterday. They lost a herd bull and a group of 14 cows with 13 bull calves grazing a rented pasture on the edge of town.

The calves were two to four months old. Their landlady called them at 7:30 a.m. June 20 to say the water was rising in the pasture. The RCMP were erecting barricades by the time they got there 15 minutes later, and they could not get in to rescue animals. Bond wanted to go in on horseback but was turned away. “All our cattle friends, everybody offered to come help, but they wouldn’t let us past the barricades,” Megan said. “I was so mad at the police.” The entire region turned into a lake, and the town was evacuated and empty for three weeks. “Everything that was in High River had to come through that pasture,” said Bond. They took a private plane up a week later when the no fly zone was lifted but found nothing. After the waters receded Megan walked the river banks searching for cattle until she made herself sick from stress. Other animals were rescued, and

There were no broken bones but some had cuts and scrapes and were clearly spooked by the experience. Hitchner and Bond realized they had to move on. “We do custom spraying so we just went hard at that and tried not to think about anything,” she said. Their home place was safe and they are rebuilding but have learned the hard way there is little support when a natural disaster of this type strikes because there is no provincial aid or insurance

for lost livestock or lost forage. Megan called the SPCA, her MLA and anyone else she could think of, but outside of friends, little help was available. They will use the same pasture next year but will wait until July. The corrals and buildings were lost that day, and after the land dried up, they found more than a metre of silt mixed with propane tanks, wrecked boats, scrap wood and other unrecognizable junk. Agribition provided some closure. “I got a phone call yesterday morn-

ing from a guy who was hunting. He stumbled across seven carcasses tangled up in the trees. That was only half of them,” Dan said. They have lived in the area their entire lives and neither they nor their elderly landlady have seen floods to compare to this. They are worried about future floods. Repairs to infrastructure are slowly coming, but local roads in some counties are still not repaired.

Saskatchewan family takes home bevy of cattle awards REGINA — Attending Canadian Western Agribition is like a holiday for Montana ranchers Max and Debby Porter. The Gelbvieh breeders brought two females to this year’s event with one of them sired by a Canadian bull from the Fladeland family of Gladmar, Sask. They sold a March heifer for $4,750 to Twisted T Gelbvieh of Asquith, Sask. The Porters first came to Agribition three years ago and started showing this year under the name M Heart D Gelbvieh. Their west-central Montana ranch is in the middle of Angus country, but Max Porter believes they are holding their own as a breed, especially among commercial bull buyers. “For the commercial people, heterosis is king. Combining genetics is a way to create great feeder calves,” he said. “Getting those extra pounds from heterosis is important.” They sell most of their cattle privately but participate in a few consignment sales.

They also select show quality animals from their herd of 100 cows, and this year had the grand champion female at the Northern International Livestock Exhibition in Billings, Montana, in mid-October. That female would have been eligible to show at the RBC Beef Supreme at Agribition, but it was sold to an Oregon breeder at the NILE who did not want to exhibit. The Por ters have been in the Gelbvieh business for 20 years. Max is a retired reconstructive dentist who decided after 35 years in the business to return to the family ranch where his grandparents had raised Angus and Shorthorns. “They had never heard of Gelbvieh,” he said. “I really like the quality of the Gelbvieh cattle up here, but more importantly I enjoy the people.” It was at Agribition where they met people such as the Fladelands, who brought 11 head to Agribition and collected banners for most of their entrants, which were displayed across their stalls in the Gelbvieh barn.

They had breed champion at the First Lady classic and won the Sweetheart champion, which is a special event where other breeders vote on their favourite female before the sale, held this year Nov. 13.

Their Sweetheart winner sold for $4,250 to Thackeray Gelbvieh of Weyburn, Sask. They also sold a Febr u a r y h e i f e r t o R oya l We s t e r n Gelbvieh for $5,000. The operation includes grandfather Ted, father Wayne and sons Del and Clint as well as five grandsons. They have been in the Gelbvieh business for about 20 years, previously producing Herefords and Charolais. They wanted a maternal breed, and these days keep about 290 commercial and purebred females. The Fladelands started showing seriously in 2009, and this year was their best. “This is definitely the best show for Gelbvieh by far,” said Del. They sell their females at Agribition as well as two breed sales: the Prairie Gelbvieh Alliance bull sale in April and the Wish List sale held in Olds, Alta., at the end of November. The Agribition sale resulted in 11.5 lots averaging $4,900. The Fladelands bought the high selling female for $8,000 from McCoy Cattle Co. of Milestone, Sask.

Bison market | Manitoba ranch sells yearling bull for $8,250

Trevor Gompf’s wide smile could be attributed to celebrating his birthday Nov. 12. More likely, it was because his family’s bison operation, Bison Spirit Ranch, consigned the top-selling animal at the national bison sale held during Canadian Western Agribition in Regina that same day. The ranch also showed the grand champion bull during the preceding show. Gompf said the bison industry is strong right now, and he is happy to be a part of it. “It’s probably never been in a better position,” he said. “It’s got a real good meat demand and things are just going along smooth.” The Gompfs have been in the bison business near Oak Lake, Man., since 1997. They run four cow herds totalling 140 head and focus on top quality. The high seller was a horned, wood-cross yearling bull weighing 1,248 pounds, which sold for $8,250 to Silver Creek Bison. The grand champion bull, consigned by Silver Creek, went to K1 Bison at Weyburn, Sask. “It’s always good when you get a little bit extra,” Gompf said of the price. Overall, he said prices were good for some stock and average for others. Canadian Bison Association president Mark Silzer, re-elected to that position for the 10th time during the Nov. 11 annual general meeting, said the better stock sold well. “Certainly the bulls were a little bit softer than I thought they would be, but the heifers were fairly strong and that bodes well because that’s the factory for the industry,” he said. Auctioneer Brennin Jack said twoyear-old bulls averaged $2,913, or $2.52 per pound, while yearling bulls averaged $2,150, or $3.50 per lb., and calves averaged $1,194 for $2.50 per lb. Two-year-old bred heifers sold for an average $4,086, or $3.72 per lb., yearlings for $1,543, or $2.44 per lb., pens of two yearling heifers $1,450, or $2.34 per lb., and pens of two heifer calves for $1,083 or $2.54 per lb. Silzer said the industry requires more producers. “The meat market is stable and it’s solid,” he said. “The recent EU announcement (of a potential trade deal with Canada, including bison) is going to be very positive for this industry.” He said many producers have built to capacity and would need more land to grow further. “That said, last year was a tough year, especially down in the States with the drought,” Silzer said. “Although they did get some rain this year, they’re still cautious, and I think we’re going to see another year before we really start to see some of those people building those herds back.” The CBA plans to conduct its own census of bison producers next spring to determine exact cow herd numbers. The most recent federal census didn’t include the spring calf crop for that year, and Silzer said the industry needs accurate numbers to be able to develop marketing plans. The census will break out categories such as two-year-old bred heifers and

Gompf was buying and selling during the Agribition sale. He said he always looks to producers of good breeding stock to replace stock in his herd and bring in new genetics. One of his purchases included the grand champion female, a two-yearold bred heifer from Nolan and Nicole Miller’s Silver Creek Bison of Binscarth, Man., for $7,000. The Millers also showed the reserve champion female and reserve champion bull.

REGINA —Russ and Linda Crawford opted for Lowlines when they decided to downsize their cow herd. “We had some Black Angus, and my wife found them to be too big and people wanted a smaller cut of meat that was grass fed,” he said after the Lowline show at Canadian Western Agribition Nov. 11-16. The Crawfords won the grand champion female banner at the show and reserve champion bull. They took reserve bull and female with different animals at Farmfair in Edmonton the previous week. The decision to create High Point Lowlines at their Victoria farm five years ago has taken them across the continent as they look for new genetics to add to their 60 head herd. They first heard about Lowlines when Russ read a magazine article about the breed and its possibilities. He started to research them on the internet and the couple ended up buying a bred Lowline cow with a calf at side and a bull. They have bought cattle from across Canada and the United States. They have also started showing cattle in a big way to promote their own genetic program as well as find new breeding opportunities. They show their cattle in Washington state, the Interior Provincial Exhibition in Armstrong, B.C., Farm-

fair in Edmonton and the National Western Stock Show in Denver. This year was the first time the breed appeared at Agribition with 35 head. The Crawfords’ greatest challenge is getting off Vancouver Island with trailer loads of cattle. “We load everybody on a 24 foot trailer and head across on the ferry from Swartz Bay,” he said. Crossing to the Mainland to either Vancouver or Washington takes a couple hours, which is stressful for cattle standing in a trailer. “You think you have them in good shape and when you get there, they have lost 150 pounds,” he said. They sell seedstock as close as Salt Spring Island and as far away as Ft. St. John, B.C ., but they also offer farmgate sales of 10 to 15 head per year. They sell beef jerky, pepperoni and packaged beef patties as well as specific cuts by customer request. All cattle receive ultrasound tests for back fat and rib eye size and are DNA parentage verified. Calves arrive in late March. The fullbloods have an average birth weight of 55 pounds, which goes up 10 to 15 lb. if they are crossed with Angus. Other winners at Agribition included grand champion bull, Tunk Mountain Ranch of Riverside, Washington and reserve female, Idaho Lowline Cattle Company of Hayden, Idaho.

AGRIBITION | INTERNATIONAL VISITORS

Agribition visitors gather Hereford genetics, info STORIES BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

REGINA — A trip to Canada at the beginning of winter was considered a treat for guests touring Hereford operations before and after Canadian Western Agribition. It was a repeat visit to see old friends for Pepe Bonica from Uruguay and a first time trip for Tony Bradshaw of Herefordshire, England. Both were interested in checking out Canadian bloodlines at the Regina show to see what might work back home. Bonica is the newly appointed secretary general of the World Hereford Association. Uruguay is hosting the 2016 World Hereford Forum in Montevideo. Herefords are the dominant breed in his country and have thrived in Uruguayan conditions, where they

can graze year round. Little crossbreeding is practiced, so 65 percent of the national herd is straight bred Hereford. “Most of our steers are straight Herefords,” he said at the Nov. 11-16 show. As a result, producers are always looking to freshen up their genetic pool. Uruguay is a small country heavily dependent on exports. There are three million people and 11 million beef cattle. With that large cattle population, Uruguay has emerged as the sixth largest beef exporter shipping to 80 countries. It offers full electronic traceability and no growth hormone implants. Antibiotics are allowed only for disease treatment. The best customers are traditionally in the European Union, where producers earn the highest value, but

Russia can be depended on to take large volumes. China is turning out to be the dark horse in the trade world. “China is astonishing,” Bonica said. “2013 for us has been amazing. China was our first market for soybeans and wool and now for beef.” The Uruguay Meat Institute has reported that China accepted 25 percent of Uruguay’s beef exports for the last agriculture year ending June 2013. Total exports reached 390,000 tonnes. The country started buying offal products, but a strong middle class wants more hind quarter cuts. The more expensive middle meats still go to Europe. Canada and the United States took 20 percent of Uruguay’s exports during the same period. It’s all about the beef for Bradshaw,

who was looking to buy Canadian Hereford embryos and semen. “We’re interested young breeders and hopefully we find some genetics to take home,” he said. They had already visited Farmfair in Edmonton and have travelled to a number of prominent operations in Alberta and Saskatchewan to see if they can do business. “They all have good cattle,” he said. The British Hereford tended to be smaller framed until about 20 years ago, but the United Kingdom now follows the European Union grading system, which values greater muscle mass and leanness. The traditional British breeds have had to catch up in frame and muscle. “We’re up against the big continental grading system,” said Bradshaw. Being part of the EU opens markets for British farmers, but they must

also abide by the continent’s rules, even though they do not always align with what traditional British cattle can do in terms of meat quality. “The tide is turning and people are looking for taste again,” he said. British grocery chains work with producers to offer their own version of branded beef. For example, consumers might end up buying Waitrose’s certified Hereford beef, he said. “People recognize the name as good quality beef. People want local beef and they don’t mind paying for it.” Supermarkets set out specifications for how cattle are raised with consideration given to environmental care and animal welfare as well as how the beef is cut and aged. All beef can be traced back to the farms where it was raised. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

The country does not have a feedlot system, so the cattle graze longer and receive grain such as barley and oats at the end of the finishing period, said Bradshaw, who owns Freetown Herefords. Import and export rules are easing in the wake of the BSE tragedy. Beef from cattle younger than 48 months, instead of the earlier 30-month limit, is now allowed into the system. However, there are other challenges, including European badgers, which are taking over the English countryside. They are vicious, leave large burrows in pastures and carry the same tuberculosis bacteria that infect cattle. Tuberculosis has become a serious problem and forces regular testing of beef farms. The farm is quarantined if there is a positive test, and testing continues every 60 days until the disease is gone. Badgers have been a protected species since the 1960s, and the designation has been controversial, he said.

REGINA — For the fourth time in her show career, 19-year-old Jaelayne Wilson won the junior show at Canadian Western Agribition Nov. 11-16. A member of the Miller-Wilson Angus ranch at Bashaw, Alta. Wilson has been involved in the family business since she was a baby. The Canadian Junior Beef Extreme show offers scholarships, and Wilson has paid for her post secondary education with the money she has earned from such events. Her Angus female earned her $3,000. Reserve went to Cody Ray Lafrentz of Wheatland Cattle Co. near Bienfait, Sask., with a Simmental female

that he later led out at the RBC Beef Supreme competition. The female made it into the top 10 final selection. He was awarded $2,000. A bred and owned section was a separate competition at the junior show. Judge Michael Wheeler of Saskatoon described this as the most important division of the event, in which young people can display cattle they have bred and raised on their own. The winners of that division were Chance Jackson of Sedley, Sask., with a Black Angus pair, while reserve went to Jennifer Jones of Lloydminster, who also displayed an Angus female.

ZINC SUPPLEMENTATION | TRIAL RESULTS

Jury still out on oral zinc benefits for calves with diarrhea ANIMAL HEALTH

JOHN CAMPBELL, DVM, DVSC

iarrhea is one of the leading causes of death in neonatal beef and dairy calves. Treatment recommendations for calves with diarrhea usually focus on giving calves fluid and electrolytes in the form of oral electrolyte solutions. Severely dehydrated calves may

require intravenous fluid therapy to correct their fluid deficits and electrolyte imbalances. In some specific types of diarrhea, veterinarians may also recommend antibiotics and other therapies such as anti-inflammatory drugs. The beneficial effects of zinc are still not completely understood, but it is suspected that zinc may play a role in protecting the intestinal lining and improving immunological response. A recent publication in the journal Preventive Veterinary Medicine describes the results of a clinical trial that looked at whether oral zinc supplementation might be beneficial to calves suffering from diarrhea.

The clinical trial was performed at a large California calf ranch, where 40,000 of the 70,000 Holstein dairy calves are of pre-weaning age. Male Holstein calves were enrolled in the trial if they experienced a first episode of diarrhea between one and eight days of age. These calves were then randomized into three groups. One group received a daily placebo treatment, which consisted of an oral electrolyte solution that was zinc free, while the other two groups received daily treatment of oral electrolyte solution, which was supplemented with either organic zinc or inorganic zinc. The studyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s authors were not aware of which treatment the calves were receiving during the trial. Randomizing calves to the various treatments and â&#x20AC;&#x153;blindingâ&#x20AC;? the investigators are key components in performing a clinical trial to prevent bias from affecting the results. Liver biopsies and blood samples were collected from all calves at the end of the study period to measure copper and zinc levels. Zinc is antagonistic to copper, and it was important to ensure that copper deficiencies werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t being created by treating the diarrheic calves with zinc. Zinc supplementation has been consistently shown to reduce mortality in infants, but there was no significant effect of the zinc treatment on mortality rates in the calves in this study. Zinc supplementation of the calves did not create zinc toxicity and did not affect the copper levels in treated calves. Many of the results were not statistically significant, but promising

Calves treated with organic zinc showed positive results on weight gain and recovery time but more research is needed. | FILE PHOTO results were seen in calves treated with inorganic or organic zinc. Calves treated with organic zinc gained weight during a diarrhea episode compared to calves that were treated with the placebo, which lost weight. As well, calves treated with inorganic zinc were more likely to be cured of their diarrhea symptoms and tended to recover sooner than calves in the placebo group. Calves treated with organic zinc that were infected with cryptosporidium, a common parasite that causes diarrhea in young calves, were also more likely to be cured at the end of the treatment period. Many of these positive results were not statistically significant and may be simply due to chance, but they show enough promise that it should encourage researchers to conduct more studies to examine if oral electrolyte solutions for calves should be supplemented with higher levels of zinc.

Clinical trials such as this one are the gold standard for making scientific and data-based treatment recommendations. These trials are difficult and expensive to carry out, but they provide veterinarians with the strongest evidence on which to base treatment recommendations. This trial may not have used a high enough dose of zinc supplementation or may have not had enough calves enrolled in the trial. As a result, we are still left without a definitive answer on whether zinc supplementation will benefit calves with diarrhea. The results on weight changes and impacts on cryptosporidium are promising enough that it should result in further studies, which may provide a more definitive answer. John Campbell is head of Large Animal Clinical Sciences at the University of Saskatchewanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Western College of Veterinary Medicine.

GOING HOME | VISITING NORWAY

Across the pond: it’s a lot easier to get to now than then COWBOY LOGIC

RYAN TAYLOR

Ancestors left a poor country that has since become awash in oil

t was 1910, 103 years ago, when a grandfather I never knew packed up all that he had, bought a ticket to America on a ship called the Lusitania and left his home, never to return. He died long before I was born, and that’s why I never knew him. And I never really had the opportunity to travel back across the pond, as they say, to get to know his homeland. But this fall I got to make the trip, and by seeing his country I think I learned a little about both him and his home. The home he left in Norway was a mountainous valley called Hallingdal, and the place he came to in North Dakota was a significantly less mountainous valley along the Mouse River. The ship that Syvert came over on would become famous five years after his journey in a sinking that would eventually bring the United States into the First World War, but when he was on board, it was just another long, hard trip to Ellis Island to add his name to a long list of immigrants seeking a life less hard in America. His trip took weeks just to get to New York, while mine took about 12 hours of flying time on three jet planes to get all the way to North Dakota. Syvert never got to see his family again. When I was in Norway,

if I wanted to see my family, I simply found a wireless internet connection for my iPad and dialed them up on Skype. I didn’t get to Hallingdal on this trip, but I saw a lot of Norway, and I saw a lot of beautiful country. It’s a place that has always been beautiful, but, in 1910, Syvert knew you couldn’t eat scenery. So along w ith what would be 900,000 of his countrymen and women over a 100 year period, he struck out for places with more land and opportunity. I was in Norway to study the lessons of their policies and practices in the area of oil extraction as part of a fellowship that I was awarded.

In an interesting turn of fate, the country that was so poor that onethird of its citizens had to leave its shores less than 100 years ago is now one of the world’s wealthiest, with vast pools of oil and gas beneath the waters of the seas that they have sailed since the time of the Vikings. Syvert left a poor country that became a wealthy country with oil. He moved to a state that had plenty more opportunity, but was still a hard place to survive, especially through the years of the Depression as a small farmer with a wife and seven children. And now that state is also becoming wealthy with oil. The place he left has

handled the prosperity pretty well, committed to making the windfall a long-term benefit to its people for generations to come. They’re the same people who ate sheep’s head (smalahove) because they didn’t waste anything. Know that, and it’s easy to understand that one of the first hard rules they laid out when they started granting permission for companies to drill for oil in their sea was that there would be no flaring of natural gas. It’s like eating the sheep’s head. They weren’t going to light a match to perfectly good natural gas and put it up in smoke. They waited for the pipelines and the plants, they used it or they reinjected it, pres-

surized the wells and got more oil. No waste. I learned a lot in the short time I was in Norway. And even though it was my first time, it felt more like a homecoming than a maiden voyage. I wasn’t just a North Dakota cowboy roaming Norway. I was the grandson of Syvert from Hallingdal, the great grandson of Hans and Ragnhild from Gudbrandsdal. And I ate the gamalost and the lutefisk, and, if it’s put in front of me, I’ll raise a skol of aquavit and try some smalahove.

FOOD PROCESSORS NAME

Growing consumer interest in gluten-free food has Alliance Grain pursuing more pulse milling. These crepes were made with lentil flour. | FILE PHOTO in 2014 and 2015. The first plant likely to be overhauled is the red lentil splitting plant in Regina, which was AGT’s first facility. The huge Arbel splitting operation in Turkey would be next, followed by another Regina-sized plant in Williston, N.D. The Regina plant could help service the rapidly growing North American and European markets for pulse ingredients. Al-Katib noted that Canada recently signed a free trade agreement with the EU that drastically reduces duties on pulse flours and fractions. He estimates it would cost $12 to $15 million to convert the existing splitting plants compared to the $35 million required to build a new food ingredient processing facility. Al-Katib believes it would be a profitable way to quickly boost the company’s overall capacity utilization, which has slumped to 61 percent. Alliance hopes to achieve prefinancial crisis utilization levels of 67

percent by the end of the year and then boost it by three percent per year until full utilization is achieved. Al-Katib doesn’t think the demand for pulse ingredients is just a passing trend brought on by the anti-gluten movement and books such as Wheat Belly. “We don’t think this is a fad, diety type of thing,” said Al-Katib. “We think that this is a sustainable trend. We think that consumers who are not celiac or gluten-intolerant still will continue to have a perception that they would like to reduce their gluten.” One investment analyst seems to agree. Anoop Prihar with GMP Securities issued a report about AGT on Nov. 6 that said research conducted by marketing company Mintel shows U.S. sales of gluten-free products have grown to an estimated $8.1 billion in 2013, up from $4.8 billion in 2009. Prihar said the non-genetically modified food market in the United

States is expected to grow to $246 billion by 2017, up from $178 billion in 2013. That would account for 30 percent of total food and beverage sales. Pulses are non-GM crops. “We believe AGT could be uniquely positioned to participate in this growth,” he said. Existing AGT customers such as Heinz, Unilever, Nestle, PepsiCo and Campbell’s Soup were asking for allergen-free pulse ingredients to replace milk, eggs, nuts, wheat and soybeans in their products. “They kind of pulled us into it,” said Al-Katib. He expects the food ingredient business to become a “material contributor” to the company’s bottom line in 2014-15. Prihar estimated the segment could generate earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of $140 per tonne, which is much higher than the contribution provided by AGT’s traditional pulse processing segment.

Alliance Grain Traders Inc. posted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of $14.4 million for the quarter ended Sept. 30, up from $11.5 million for the same period a year ago. “It’s certainly a positive turn of performance for the company,” said AGT president Murad Al-Katib. “It’s largely a result of the fact that our global footprint has become very diversified.” A company that was once known

Alliance Grain Traders Inc. is morphing from a commodity exporter into a full-fledged food company. One of the world’s largest pulse processing firms has finished commissioning the first of three production lines at its new food ingredient facility in Minot, North Dakota. “This new line of business is expected to assist in furthering our stated objective of moving AGT up the value chain,” company president Murad Al-Katib said in a news release. The plant has been producing and selling pulse flour, protein, starch and fibre ingredients since late June. Alliance signed a five-year agreement with Cargill earlier this year to supply the grain company with pulse proteins for the animal feed sector. The processor is also supplying product to other food companies in North America, the European Union and China. The first production line is operating at two-thirds of its 35,000 tonne annual capacity and should be at full capacity by year’s end, Al-Katib told investment analysts on a conference call announcing AGT’s 2013 third quarter results. Based on initial customer interest, he anticipates it won’t be long before the other two production lines are operating. It takes 90 to 120 days to build and commission each new line, at a cost of $3.5 million per line. However, the company doesn’t intend to stop at one facility. AGT has targeted three of its red lentil splitting plants for conversion into pulse ingredient processing plants if, as anticipated, the margins in that business are “significantly superior” to the traditional pulse processing sector. The conversions would happen

exclusively as a lentil processor estimates that lentils now comprise 35 percent of its business. The goal is to reduce the reliance on lentils to 25 to 33 percent by focusing on other product lines such as chickpeas, beans, pasta, bulgur wheat, rice

and pulse ingredients. Legumex Walker Inc. also had an encouraging quarter with $2.4 million of EBITDA posted by its special crops division, up from $434,000 a year ago. The segment has provided $8 million to cash flow this year, up from $3.6 million for the first three quarters a year ago. “That’s just tremendous,” said company president Joel Horn. “To have special crops kicking off that much cash is just really, really good as we’re launching the canola facility.” Special crop earnings were partially offset by losses of $1.02 million in the

oilseed processing division because of costs associated with the final commissioning and initial commercialization of the company’s Pacific Coast Canola (PCC) facility. The PCC plant crushed 21,000 tonnes of canola in September, operating at two-thirds of the facility’s capacity. The company sold 18,600 tonnes, generating $730,000 of EBITDA, which was the plant’s first positive monthly contribution. “You can kind of feel it within the company that this major investment we’ve made in PCC is now starting to contribute,” said Horn.

Groups oppose bid SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) — GrainCorp’s chief executive officer said fears that Australia risks its food security by allowing a $2.8 billion bid for the grain handler by Archer Daniel Midland Co. are misplaced. Some Australian farm groups and politicians from within the ruling Liberal-National coalition oppose the takeover, which is awaiting a final decision by treasurer Joe Hockey. “Australia of any country in the world has the least to be concerned about when it comes to food security,” GrainCorp CEO Alison Watkins said.

THE BOTTOM LINE

GLENN CHEATER

I had been working on my recipes in my kitchen and had a circle of friends who were my taste-testers. I certainly had a lot of support from them. DEBRA AMREIN-BOYES THE FARM HOUSE NATURAL CHEESES

Amrein-Boyes, a prairie farm girl who learned cheese-making while living in Switzerland, was appalled at the idea of using fat-blocking feed additives. They were talking to their feed rep about grain blends that could lower butterfat, when her husband uttered the fateful words, “well, we could make cheese.” After all, Amrein-Boyes was already a gifted amateur cheese-maker who knew classic Old World techniques for making wonderfully runny brie, creamy camembert and clothbound cheddar, a process that begins with gentle handling of milk to preserve butterfat quality. “I had been working on my recipes in my kitchen and had a circle of friends who were my taste-testers,” she says.

FINANCE NOTES

Don’t let age be a barrier to entrepreneurial adventure

onventional wisdom says we should take big risks when we’re young because if things don’t work out, we’ll have time to recover. But Debra Amrein-Boyes and George Boyes opted to try something new and different at an age when many are starting their retirement planning. The Farm House Natural Cheeses is a huge success today. The couple can’t keep up with demand, their cheeses have won a slew of awards and Amrein-Boyes has written a best-selling book on cheese-making and been inducted into a prestigious French guild of fromagers. But that’s now. A decade ago, the leap into making artisan cheese was fraught with risk. “It was an expensive undertaking. For us to get our building up and get going, it was between $400,000 and $500,000,” says Amrein-Boyes. “At various points, we would stop, look at each other, and ask, ‘are we still good to go on this?’ Our answer was always, ‘yes.’ ” The couple’s story is inspiring, especially for those who have reached an age where risk seems, well, more risky. Amrein-Boyes, now 60, says she has four pieces of advice for anyone thinking of taking their farm in a new direction. First, do it for love, not money. They first thought of making cheese after their milk marketing board, then struggling with an excess supply of butterfat, reduced payments for fat-rich milk.

They were saying things like, ‘I haven’t had cheese like this since I was in France. You have to do this.’ You can’t base your business plan on that, but it helped because we knew there was a market out there.” The business plan was next, and her second piece of advice is to really do your homework. In their case, it meant knowing food safety and licensing rules inside out and how that affected capital costs. Stainless steel equipment isn’t cheap. It also meant detailed cashflow projections (aged cheddar isn’t sold the day you make it) to convince their lender that selling some quota for start-up capital was viable. That’s standard stuff, but AmreinBoyes’s next piece of advice might surprise you. “You have to know what your personal philosophy is,” she says. “Look at yourself, the world around you, and see how you fit in it. We believe in transparency, so we allow people to walk around our farm. They can see our cows and dairy goats and ask us any question they want. People want to be connected to their food, so we believe they should be allowed that.” If that sounds a bit airy, it’s not. Their farm, near Agassiz in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley, welcomes thousands of visitors, and every one looks through the large picture window to see Amrein-Boyes and her cheese-makers at work. The taste of Farm House cheese, milk and yogurt is certainly key, but this transparency is the foundation of their marketing approach and based on the couple’s commitment to producing wholesome, natural food. The final piece of advice speaks directly to those who wonder if the time for new things has passed. “I had reached the middle of my life and was wondering if there was anything I wished I had done,” says Amrein-Boyes. “I’d been thinking of going back to university, so I think this satisfied that need for a new challenge. It was the same for my husband because we’ve not only gone to different breeds of cows and added goats, but he’s changed his dairy operation to become so-called old-fashioned. He’s having fun and so am I.” Local food, agri-tourism and a demand for specialized ag services has created a host of opportunities in recent years for starting a new on-

farm enterprise. All come with some measure of risk, but that’s part of the fun, too. And as Amrein-Boyes and her husband found out, any age is a good time to pursue new and exciting challenges.

EQUIPMENT SELLER’S PROFIT INCREASES

USED EQUIPMENT SALES TRIM PROFIT

Cervus Equipment Corp. has posted third quarter profit of $8.74 million, up 1.6 percent from $8.61 million in the same period last year. Revenue was $260.8 million, up 11.5 percent from last year, the company said in a news release. Cervus has 29 John Deere agricultural dealerships and 19 commercial and industrial equipment dealerships. Revenue in the agricultural equipment segment rose 8.9 percent, mostly because of the addition of dealerships. Revenue rose only 0.1 percent when comparing the same dealerships that operated in the same quarter last year. Used equipment sales rose $11.7 million, or 23.3 percent, in the quarter. New equipment sales fell $6.2 million, or 6.7 percent, mostly as a result of early arrival of new equipment, which allowed delivery to customers in the second quarter. Year to date, new tractor and harvesting equipment sales are up 19 percent. Parts and service revenue rose almost 35 percent. Agricultural sale gross margins in the quarter slipped to 16 percent from 16.4 percent because of stronger competition and increased used inventory levels across the industry, the company said.

Rocky Mountain Dealerships posted third quarter earnings of $5.92 million, down from $8.45 million in the same period a year ago. The company, which features Case and New Holland equipment, has 38 locations across the Prairies. The company said its mix of sales has shifted to include more used equipment. New machines with Tier 4 engines are more costly, and some customers are turning to used units as they look for less expensive ways to upgrade their equipment. As well, the company has several initiatives aimed at moving its used inventory. The result was a decrease in new equipment sales of $5.7 million and an increase in used equipment sales of $32.9 million during the quarter, the company said in a news release. Used equipment sales generally have lower profit margins. Slower new construction equipment sales also affected results. Slowing construction activity has led to increased inventory at most Alberta dealerships, leading to a competitive market and tighter profit margins. Costs increased because of additional commissions and salaries driven by incremental sales activity and the acquisition of new branches.
