CONSUMER OPINIONS

Why farmers should care what consumers think Building strong trust with consumers is critical to the success of modern farming BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

OTTAWA — Cherilyn Nagel, a grain farmer and agricultural advocate from Mossbank, Sask., used to dismiss consumer concerns about farming practices. She thought earning public trust was unimportant and there was no value in providing credible information about farming to Canadians. Farmers had other things to think about, Nagel told those at the May 31-June 1 Public Trust Summit.

“Farmers are too damn busy to care about what Joe Consumer thinks about what we farm and how we farm it,” she said to an audience temporarily stunned into silence. “We’re growing food and we’re adopting challenging new technologies that take innovation to an unimaginable level. Farmers are under enormous pressure to maintain our operations, diversify our farms and even more pressure to maintain these farms that are three, four and five generations.

Turkey’s GM intolerance could halt lentil trade BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

CESME, Turkey — The two largest buyers of Canadian lentils in Turkey say there is significant risk that trade will come to a grinding halt if a looming issue is not quickly resolved. Turkey has zero tolerance for shipments contaminated with unapproved genetically modified crops. T h e i m p o r t e r s s a y Tu r k i s h authorities could easily reject a red lentil shipment for containing GM canola dust, and that would be the beginning of the end of $375 million in annual trade with Canada’s second largest lentil customer. Abdullah Ozdemir, general manager of the Arbel Group, a subsidiary of AGT Food and Ingredients and Turkey’s largest importer of Canadian lentils, said the strict policy poses significant risk to importers and exporters. “This is now a headache in Turkey. The ministry of agriculture is making problems,” he said through an interpreter. SEE GM INTOLERANCE, PAGE 5

THE WHEEL GOES ROUND

Compensation from failed firm likely small The Canadian Grain Commission found NSGL’s security bond significantly underfunded BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Farmers who sold grain to a bankrupt elevator company and were never paid will likely receive 10 to 15 percent of what they were owed. Naber Specialty Grains Ltd. (NSGL) of Melfort, Sask., was placed in receivership last year. The company had posted a $150,000 security bond with the Canadian Grain Commission before it ran into financial difficulty. However, CGC spokesperson Remi Gosselin said the size of NSGL’s security bond was too small to ensure full compensation to all eligible claimants. “At this point in time, it’s clear that the security that was posted by the company (NSGL) to compensate grain producers will be insufficient,” Gosselin said. The commission has also referred the matter to the RCMP, after uncovering what Gosselin called “apparent irregularities.” “We’ve referred the matter to the RCMP because of the magnitude of the company’s outstanding liabilities to producers at the time of receivership and also the extent to which those liabilities may have been under-reported in reports to the grain commission,” he said. The grain commission’s payment protection program requires all licensed elevator companies in Canada to post a security bond with the commission. NSGL posted a bond, but it now appears it was significantly undersized, based on the value of grain deliveries to NSGL and unsettled accounts with farmers. Total eligible farm claims against

NSGL are estimated to be $1 million to $1.5 million, although Gosselin declined to provide a specific number. The payment protection program requires licensed elevator companies to submit monthly reports to the CGC, summarizing the value of grain receipts and inventories. The commission uses the reports to ensure that the company’s security bond is of an adequate size. Lee Egland, a producer from Eastend, Sask., said someone at the commission dropped the ball. Egland sold near $90,000 worth of flax to NSGL in March 2015 but didn’t receive a penny in payment. He said the grain commission must do a better job of managing its payment protection program if it hopes to provide a reasonable level of security to farmers. “The CGC or the government is not looking after producers when they’ve got a … bond that size,” he said. “The total bond that they made Naber pay was 150 grand, (but) my loss alone is half of that. That’s not a very good deal.” Gosselin said the CGC audits licensed companies when financial irregularities come to light. Random audits are also conducted. The grain commission conducted an audit of NSGL’s operations in March 2015 after receiving complaints from farmers about late payments and difficulties getting grain tickets. It instructed NSGL in April to settle outstanding accounts with farmers. Later the same month, it instructed NSGL to stop taking deliveries of farmers’ grain. NSGL’s elevator licence was not renewed after May 8, 2015. brian.cross@producer.com

GRAIN COMPANY FINANCES

Naber withdrew money before receivership: report BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Findings contained in a receiver’s reports likely won’t sit well with farmers who expect to receive 10 to 15 cents on the dollar for what they’re owed by Naber Specialty Grains Ltd. of Melfort, Sask. In its first report to the receiver dated Nov. 12, 2015, Ernst & Young contends that NSGL made personal payments to former owner Todd Naber worth more than $667,000 between June 6, 2014 and June 18, 2015, the day NSGL was placed in receivership. The report goes on to state that another company controlled by Naber — TK Equipment Ltd. (TKEL) — owes NSGL more than $151,000 and that an incorporated farming operation owned by Naber — T K N C o m p a n y Fa r m L t d .

— owes NSGL more than $526,000. Naber and his legal counsel have disputed some of the report’s findings, suggesting that any amount owed by TKEL and TKN was offset by grain deliveries and other services that were provided to NSGL. “The claim by the receiver of amounts owing (to NSGL) by Todd Naber associated companies are based on prior fiscal years 2013 and 2014 and are based on incomplete and not current records,” Naber wrote in a May 20 email to The Western Producer. “Amounts owing by Todd Naber companies were retired in 2015 through transportation services provided to the firm and grain deliveries received by the firm in kind.” Ernst & Young also claims that Naber is indebted to NSGL for fer-

tilizer inventories valued at almost US$160,000. “The fertilizer was purchased in the name of NSGL in late April 2015, and the receiver is advised that the fertilizer was used in Mr. Naber’s farming operations,” the November 2015 receivers report stated. “No fertilizer inventory was on hand at NSGL upon the receiver’s appointment.” In a letter dated Oct. 7, 2015, Naber’s lawyers claim that Naber has been in contact with the fertilizer supplier, Gavilon Fertilizer LLC, and has requested that the fertilizer shipment be re-invoiced to Naber or his farming company (TKNCFL).” According to Joe Healey, a senior vice-president and licensed insolvency trustee with Ernst & Young, all statements contained in the first

and second receiver’s reports — dated November 2015 and April 2016, respectively — are based on all the relevant information that was available. However, key pieces of information are missing from the record. Ernst & Young has requested additional documentation from Naber, but the documents requested have yet to be filed. Naber’s lawyers say nine boxes of records, delivered to Ernst & Young on June 24, 2015, represent all of the companies’ books and records for 2013, 2014 and 2015. T h e r e c e i v e r ’s r e p o r t s a y s “based upon feedback and inquiries from numerous creditors, it is apparent to the receiver that there are a significant number of unsecured creditors who appear to be owed funds by NSGL, yet the accounts payable records or

NSGL accounting records did not disclose that those parties were owed money.” Naber, who owned NSGL and Melfort Grain Terminal Ltd., said statements contained in a November 2015 receiver’s report prepared by Ernst & Young — including debt calculations and accounts receivable — are based on incomplete records. “The receiver did not work with current and complete company records at the time of the receivership,” Naber wrote in a June 6 email. “There are no current amounts owing to the company (NSGL) by any shareholder or associated company.” He said there is a plan in place to ensure producers are paid 100 percent of what they’re owed. brian.cross@producer.com

WHY FARMERS SHOULD CARE » CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “We do not have time to care about what the public thinks about whether or not we’re growing safe, healthy food. “At least, that’s what I used to think.” Nagel said a new realization of the gap that exists between most consumers and most farmers awakened her to the necessity of establishing trust. “My attitude has changed from when believing that farming the way I want to farm is my right, to understanding that the decisions and the choices that I get to make are truly a privilege, a privilege that without proper care, can be taken away from me.” Unless consumers trust the ways in which their food is produced, in most cases using pesticides and genetically modified varieties, those tools may disappear, she said. That would make farmers less able to produce the same amount of food. Establishing consumer trust in Canada’s food system is the goal behind the May 31 official establishment of the Canadian Centre for Food Integrity. Modelled after the U.S. centre, it is an offshoot of Farm and Food Care Canada. A recent survey commissioned by the latter group showed public trust levels in many aspects of farming and food are low. Rory McAlpine, a senior vicepresident with Maple Leaf Foods, recounted first-hand experience with public trust issues. He was with the company during the 2008 listeriosis outbreak that killed 22 people and forced a massive meat recall. “It certainly is a time when you face a crisis like that, where trust of course is everything, and you have an opportunity there to ultimately reinforce it and build a legacy of trust or destroy it, and I think we achieved the former in the way we handled that,” McAlpine said. Maple Leaf’s values were tested in the crisis but they held. “In a moment like that, the decisions you take and the way you come together as a team to decide on actions fundamentally have to be instinctive.” McAlpine said it has become obvious that the first priority in retaining social licence is to “do the right thing,” whatever that might be for each food sector. Claire Tansey, a chef, teacher and former food director at Chatelaine magazine, said consumers face information overload when it comes to food choices, labels and health advice. As a result, they don’t know who to trust. Additionally, many don’t know how to cook food, properly or at all, in some cases. She suggested mandatory culinary education for every Canadian teenager as a step toward food literacy and trust. “I’m telling you if we started in Grade 9 … we would be sending people to university who could actually make smart decisions about their food,” she said. “It’s the magic bullet we’ve been seeking. We don’t respect food enough right now. We need to bring that respect back.” barb.glen@producer.com FOR RELATED STORIES, SEE PAGES 14-15

ANIMAL HEALTH

More PED cases found in Man. Three new cases of porcine epidemic diarrhea put producers on high alert BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Two more Manitoba cases of porcine epidemic diarrhea were confirmed June 2 and June 4, creating worry among hog producers, particularly in the southeastern part of the province where one-third to one-half of Manitoba’s hogs are raised. The June 2 case occurred in a finisher barn and the June 4 case in a sow barn. A case confirmed May 26 in another sow barn was the first to be found in 18 months within the province. Andrew Dickson, general manager with Manitoba Pork, said June 6 that it is unclear whether the cases are related. “That’s one of the problems we’ve had with all these cases, all the ones that we’ve had in Manitoba. We’ve had a real challenge to try to determine how did they get the disease in the first place.”

PED virus, which is almost always fatal to piglets, is a reportable disease in Manitoba, but information on the identity of the barn owners and exact locations is confidential. Dickson said Manitoba Pork is encouraging producers and swine veterinarians to tell provincial authorities immediately if they suspect PED. That would speed up testing and confirmation and potentially help control spread. Producers can also sign a waiver that would allow quicker action on testing and control, without giving up their confidentiality, said Dickson. It gives the herd veterinarian permission to share site status and location with other veterinarians and with Manitoba Pork. The three recent cases of PED in Manitoba occurred about one month after the Canadian Food Inspection Agency cancelled an

emergency truck washing protocol that was supported by hog producers across Western Canada. That protocol allowed hog transport trucks returning from the United States to be sealed and then washed thoroughly at Canadian facilities. On May 2, the CFIA reverted to regulations under the Animal Health Act that require trucks to be washed on the U.S. side of the border, where facilities are less thorough and where thousands of barns have been and continue to be infected with PED virus. Dickson said there is no confirmed connection between the three recent Manitoba cases and CFIA’s action. “We’ve had a lot of people ask about that … and so far we haven’t b e e n a b l e t o d raw a n y l i n k between the change in the regulation on May 2 and the cases we’ve had to date,” he said. “But I don’t think the federal

government can show that there hasn’t been. “Our view is that the protocol (that was) in place was another defence measure, and the federal government going back to an old regulation gives us concern that we’ve reduced the protection that we’re trying to provide to the environment in which our barns operate.” Dickson said pork producers continue to press the federal government to update regulations so special measures can be used to prevent diseases from entering the country. He also encouraged producers to re-examine biosecurity on their farms. “They’ve got to really raise their standards on this matter. You can’t waiver in the management techniques that you use on your farm on a daily basis.” barb.glen@producer.com

SUPPLY MANAGEMENT

Tory candidate calls for end of supply management system BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Federal Conservative leadership candidate Maxime Bernier says it’s time to end supply management. He said the leadership race to replace former Prime Minister Stephen Harper is the time for the party to reconsider its support for the system. The Conservatives have stood by the system, which manages the domestic supply of milk, eggs and poultry products, while in government, but Bernier said the party believes in the free market, and support for supply management does not fit with that position. “Conservatives are not credible when we talk about principles and then defend policies that squarely contradict these principles,” he said. He told an Ottawa news conference that the system forces Canadian families to pay more for food and prevents competition. “Supply management is a system based on keeping the prices of dairy, poultry and eggs artificially high through the control of production,

the banning of imports and price fixing by bureaucrats,” he said. “It is a government cartel. It is the opposite of free markets.” Bernier said he could not defend the system “with passion and conviction.” However, he did publicly support it when in government and cabinet. He now says he had to maintain cabinet solidarity. “I went along with it, even though I had grave misgivings about it for all these years.” He said the policy is also unfair to farmers in other agricultural sectors who want to develop exports because governments have focused trade negotiations on protecting supply management. Bernier proposes that Canada gradually phase out the system, similar to what Australia did, by imposing a temporary levy on products to compensate farmers for quota value. He acknowledged that a large number of dairy farms operate in his own riding of Beauce in Quebec and that the sector’s lobby is powerful. However, he said political leadership means tackling tough issues. karen.briere@producer.com

TURKEY’S GM INTOLERANCE COULD HALT LENTIL TRADE » CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 He wants Canadian farmers to pressure the Canadian government to lobby the Turkish government to adopt a .09 percent tolerance level for GM contamination. Ozdemir said it is an issue that needs to be resolved at the highest level of government. “This is very important and it has to be sorted out,” he said. “This will have a big effect on the business of lentils from Canada to Turkey.” Omer Al-Katib, director of investor relations with AGT, the biggest supplier of Canadian lentils to Turkey, agreed that a reasonable tolerance level needs to be established. “This is a monster that is lurking in the closet that is going to come

out at some point,” he said. “Both governments need to be ready to d e a l w i t h t h e i s s u e b e f o re i t becomes a big issue.” Bayram Fettahoglu, chief executive officer of Goze Agricultural Products and Marketing Inc., Turkey’s second biggest importer of Canadian lentils, said nothing is getting accomplished at the ministerial level. “This is only a matter that’s going to be resolved between the president of Turkey and the prime minister of Canada,” he said through an interpreter. He said 420,000 tonnes of lentil trade with Turkey are at risk. “If there is a problem with a red lentil vessel, there won’t be a second time because Turkey will stop

buying,” said Fettahoglu. He said any problem in Turkey would have a domino effect in other importing regions. “Can you imagine if in the world press it is written that Canadian red lentils are refused by Turkey because of GMOs?” said Fettahoglu. “In Europe, your product might be questioned.” Turkish consumers are particularly skittish about eating GM crops, which has put the government in a bind. Fettahoglu said if the government changes its policy to establish any tolerance level, it risks a political backlash from consumers who will accuse the government of trying to poison them and succumbing to the interests of big business.

There was a major scandal in the country in 2013 when six people from three importing companies were arrested after 21,000 tonnes of U.S. grain paddy rice were seized after testing positive for containing trace amounts of GM soybeans. Gord Bacon, chief executive officer of Pulse Canada, chaired a meeting on the subject during the 2016 Global Pulse Convention in Cesme, Turkey. Attending the meeting were Canadian exporters, Turkish importers and representatives of the Canadian consulate in Istanbul, Turkey, and the Canadian embassy in Ankara, Turkey. “It could have a devastating impact on lentil trade,” said Bacon. For Canada, $375 million worth

of lentil exports are at risk. For Turkey, there are all the jobs involved in processing, marketing and reexporting the product. “Some of that business that is going to Turkey could end up going to another country,” he said. Bacon said the trade believes a .09 percent tolerance level would be sufficient to allow trade to continue unimpeded. Pulse Canada and the Canadian Special Crops Association will be asking the federal government to consider adding the issue to the agenda when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau meets with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan later this year. sean.pratt@producer.com

PRODUCTION OUTLOOK

Analysts’ forecasts differ on peas China’s purchase of an additional 50,000 tonnes of green peas has brought down the large Canadian carryover

SEAN PRATT REPORTS FROM THE GLOBAL PULSE CONVENTION IN CESME, TURKEY, ABOUT WHAT IS DRIVING PULSE MARKETS

CESME, Turkey — The trade is divided on whether it is bullish or bearish on peas despite forecasts for a sizable increase in world production. Stat Publishing forecasts 12.7 million tonnes of global production in 2016, up 2.3 million tonnes or 22 percent from the previous year. “The world can absorb this (extra) tonnage,” said Sudhakar Tomar, managing director of Hakan Agro, a company that exports US$1.5 billion of agricultural commodities a year. He recently moderated a pea market outlook session at the 2016 Global Pulse Convention. The five-person panel was split on whether they thought prices were heading higher or lower. Canada is expected to account for the lion’s share of the extra peas. It is forecast to produce 1.1 million tonnes more than last year.

MIKE ALLAIRE COMMODITY TRADER

Mike Allaire, senior commodity trader with Ilta Grain, doesn’t think the increase will be that large. He believes Canadian growers will plant less than the 4.28 million acres of peas Statistics Canada is forecasting. Allaire also disagrees with Stat Publishing’s average yield estimate of 37 bushels per acre because the average includes the 2013 bumper crop. If that anomaly is removed, the average yield becomes 34.5 bush-

Commodity analysts and traders are at odds over average pea yield estimates and pea acre estimates, resulting in price predictions that are both bearish and bullish. | FILE PHOTO els per acre, which would decrease production by 200,000 tonnes. There is also a concern that La Nina will bring wet weather to Canada, which could lead to heavy disease pressure. Allaire forecasts four million tonnes of Canadian production, which is lower than Stat Publishing’s 4.29 million tonnes. He said Canada is sold out of the 2015 crop. There are not enough yellow peas in the system to fill one 50,000 tonne bulk vessel. Carryout will be minimal and comprised mostly of green peas. Global demand for the crop is expected to be strong. “There are quite a few sales on the books already,” said Allaire. “I’m pretty confident that over 1.1 million tonnes of yellow peas have already been sold.” That represents over one-third of Canada’s anticipated yellow pea production. Kevin Price, senior trading manager with Agrocorp International, said U.S. acres are up 20 percent compared to last year with most of the increase being yellow peas. He believes 150,000 to 200,000 tonnes of the anticipated 1.13 mil-

lion tonnes of United States pea production has already been contracted. China has helped alleviate the oversupply of green peas this year, purchasing 50,000 tonnes more than its usual 120,000 tonnes of annual imports. He expects the same buying pattern to emerge in 2016-17.

There are quite a few sales on the books already. I’m pretty confident that over 1.1 million tonnes of yellow peas have already been sold. MIKE ALLAIRE ILTA GRAIN TRADER

“The over-burden of supply that Canada has had over the last couple of years in green peas is starting to absorb into the market,” said Price. He classified himself as “mildly bearish” on prices due to the potential for an additional 2.3 million tonnes of supply.

He expects prices to remain strong during the flurry of postharvest activity in the September through November timeframe and then start to drop. “However, the market in Canada should remain relatively firm. It’s going to be different than what’s happening overseas,” he said. Nick Poutney, senior trader with GrainCorp, thinks Australia’s crop will be bigger than the 310,000 tonnes Stat Publishing forecasts. The soil moisture profile in southern Australia where the peas are produced is fantastic. “It’s one of the best starts in about 10 years,” he said. Poutney forecasts up to 400,000 tonnes of production. He believes as much as two million tonnes of India’s eight million tonnes of annual chickpea demand could switch to yellow peas due to high chickpea prices. Anurag Tulshan, managing director of Esarco Exim Pvt, an Indian brokerage firm, is forecasting a “huge flow” of yellow peas hitting the market in the September through March period. “I am very bearish on the prices,” he said.

India imported a record 5.79 million tonnes of pulses last year, including 2.5 million tonnes of yellow peas. World supply is currently constrained but Indian buyers have already contracted about 20 percent of the anticipated new crop. Indian demand is expected to remain strong despite improved monsoon rains and better domestic crop. Ozan Ozturk, managing director of Agrozan Commodities DMCC, a Dubai-based processor and trader of pulses, grains and oilseeds, said importers can expect a big crop coming out of the Black Sea region. He forecasts 1.75 million tonnes of Russian production, which is lower than Stat’s estimate of 2.1 million tonnes. However, that difference is partially offset by his forecast for 600,000 tonnes out of Ukraine, which is higher than Stat’s 420,000 tonnes. Ozturk said other countries in the Black Sea region will produce another 650,000 tonnes, so there should be plenty of supply. sean.pratt@producer.com

CESME, Turkey — Supply will be tight for two of the main classes of d r y b e a n s g row n i n Ca na d a, according to an expert. “I think there is great potential for the pinto bean market to get tight,” said Randy Duckworth, director of worldwide activities for the U.S. Dry Bean Council. He forecasts total supply from the United States and Canada of 548,969 tonnes, which would be 11 percent smaller than the previous four-year average. Duckworth said there is a good chance production will be even lower because a lot of farmers in the U.S. made a last minute switch of dry beans to soybeans. There is strong demand from Mexico, the United States and the Dominican Republic and carryout from the 2015-16 crop will be at the lowest level in a long while. “The U.S. and Canada pinto bean situation could get very interesting,” he told delegates attending the 2016 Global Pulse Convention. The black bean situation could also get interesting because of a poor bean harvest in Brazil. Brazil’s bean acres have fallen 27 percent over the past decade, but that has been counteracted by yields that have risen 31 percent over the same period. However, yields were disappointing this year because of a combination of early-season drought, lateseason flooding and frost. Marcelo Eduardo Luders, president of the Dry Bean Brazilian Institute, is forecasting 2.85 million tonnes of total dry bean production, down from the January estimate of 3.08 million tonnes. That falls well short of the country’s annual consumption of 3.35 million tonnes, 67 percent of which is carioca beans. “We have already lost 95,000 tonnes in black beans and carioca beans,” he said. “This is a big problem in Brazil.” Duckworth said no other country produces carioca beans, so they will need to substitute with imports of light speckled kidney, cranberry, pinto and black beans. “There is potential there for them to have to import a lot of beans, a lot of beans,” he said. Brazil imported 150,000 tonnes of beans last year but has bought as much as 312,300 tonnes in previous years. Duckworth believes much of the current shortfall will be made up by importing black beans because there is decent available supply. “I expect it will result in a tightening up of those supplies,” he said. Duckworth initially thought there was going to be a huge carryout of navy beans heading into 2016-17 but there has been good movement of the crop in the waning months of the current crop year. He sees 266,733 tonnes of supply in the U.S. and Canada, down 21 percent from the previous fouryear average. China has gone from exporting one million tonnes of beans to an estimate of slightly more than

200,000 tonnes for 2016. “I don’t remember a lower level of exports,” said Duckworth. Chinese growers are not happy with bean prices and movement. Duckworth sees 330,000 tonnes of Chinese bean production this year with decreases in dark red kidney and white bean production and increases in light speckled kidney and black beans. Farmers in Argentina planted a large crop of 1.01 million acres despite low prices because there were lacklustre low corn and soybean prices at the time of planting. “For the second year in a row, we’ve seen very high planting numbers for Argentina, even though the bean prices have been quite low and the farmers essentially are not making money,” he said.

Argentina produces mainly black and alubia beans. Duckworth said the crop will be harvested soon, but results won’t be good. “It was really quite an array of weather conditions that hit Argentina this year,” he said. “Overall it probably dropped production by about 30 percent so far.” Bean production is also down in South Afr ica, Z imbabwe and Malawi, which were hit by drought. Mexico’s crop hasn’t been planted yet. The country has been a big importer of black and pinto beans the last couple of years. “If Mexico doesn’t have a good crop, they’ll have to import a lot more pinto beans and black beans putting even more pressure on those markets,” said Duckworth. sean.pratt@producer.com

IT’S ‘BEAN’ A GOOD YEAR The U.S. Dry Bean Council is forecasting tightening supply of all the major bean classes grown in Canada due to reduced plantings in the U.S. and Canada.

GLOBAL WEATHER

New weather problems give crop markets added boost MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

rain futures prices appear to have resumed their rise, s u p p o r t e d by w e a t h e r issues around the world and currency fluctuations. Last week, I wrote that the rally might run out of steam this month if North American weather remains favourable, the United States winter wheat harvest starts and forecasts show U.S. farmers made a big last minute switch into soybeans. But I wasn’t figuring on another round of heavy rain in Argentina and torrential rain and flooding in France threatening production in those countries. Also, I was wondering if the market would focus on current good North American weather or fret over a potential trend toward dry weather in July or August. The jury is out on that one. But certainly the market has focused a lot on Argentina’s problems. I am surprised by how much the market has moved on a four or five million tonne decrease in Argentina’s soybean crop. It seems that the market thinks the global soybean supply and demand

Days of non-stop rain have caused flooding in Paris and large parts of western Europe, reducing crop production estimates. | REUTERS PHOTO relationship is tighter than the gross numbers would indicate. Also, beyond the tonnage decrease, there is also a quality decrease that means part of what is harvested will be rejected by the international market. So while production might be down around 10 percent, Argentina’s exports are expected to fall by 25 percent. And now there is more rain. Argentina’s farmers still had 20 percent of their soy crop left to harvest when the latest rain hit. New crop November soybeans have rise by about 9.5 percent from the beginning of May to the start of this week. The meal component of soybeans is where the real strength is with soy oil trailing and that helps explain

why November canola since May has risen only a little more than six percent. Meanwhile, corn futures are rising on problems in Brazil. That country produces two corn crops each year. Exporters were aggressive with sales from the first crop, taking advantage of the weak local currency, the real. With so much of the first crop exported, the second crop was important to meet domestic needs. But dry weather is sapping the yield potential of that crop and livestock feeders are already running tight on supplies. Domestic corn prices have risen to a record high and livestock producers are losing money. The trade expects that the U.S.

corn will pick up more export business because of this. In France, the flooding Seine River reached 30-year highs, indicating the intensity of the rain that hit large parts of western Europe. The country’s agriculture ministry said the wet weather would likely promote the spread of insects and disease that will stress crops and lower yield potential. It forecast rapeseed yields would decline five percent from last year, offsetting an increase in seeded area, resulting in an expected production decrease of 3.7 percent. Winter barley yields might fall six percent and wheat would also likely suffer. Rain has been abundant across Europe into Russia. The adage is that rain makes grain, but there is talk in the marketplace that quality could be hurt. In the U.S., the winter wheat crop in the southern Plains, corn and soybeans in the Midwest and spring crops in the northern Plains all are in good shape. Western Canada’s crops are also generally doing well. Moisture is adequate in most regions although parts of Saskatchewan’s northern grain belt have less than normal rain. June rain forecasts look OK, so overall, I’d think that the market would be feeling comfortable. But some analysts continue to bang the drought drumbeat for the summer and that helps to price in weather risk to the market. For many weeks now the big ques-

tion asked has been when will the dry weather hit. The equatorial Pacific is still rapidly cooling and is on its way to a La Nina. Bryce Anderson, weather analyst with DTN, thinks the likelihood of real dryness will not develop until August. That would be the tail end of kernel filling for corn, but right in the middle of soybean pod setting and filling. Currency is another market factor. In May, the U.S. dollar had risen against other major currencies on the rising expectation of an interest rate hike sometime this summer. A strong greenback tends to apply downward pressure on U.S. crop futures as it makes it more expensive for foreigners to buy U.S. grain. But a rate hike depends on signs of a stronger U.S. economy, particularly in job creation, but in May only 38,000 jobs were added, far below expectations of 164,000. That killed any expectation of a rate hike in June and likely a July increase is out too. So that should put off a U.S. dollar rally and that should help keep a favourable outlook for American crop exports over the summer, helping to shrink year-end stocks. That also means the Canadian dollar will rise but regardless our crop stocks should been pretty small by the end of the crop year, so it should not be that much of a problem.

FOOD PRODUCTION

Food loss measured to reduce waste, malnourishment BARCELONA, Spain (Thomson Reuters Foundation) — A new global standard for measuring food loss and waste will help countries and companies step up efforts to store, transport and consume food more efficiently, its backers said June 6. One-third of all food, by weight, is spoiled or thrown away worldwide as it moves from where it is produced to where it is eaten, costing globally up to $940 billion per year, the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization has estimated. T h e F o o d L o s s a n d Wa s t e Accounting and Reporting Standard is the first set of international

definitions and reporting requirements for businesses, governments and other organizations to measure and manage food loss and waste, with the aim of reducing it, its creators said. The effort hopes to channel more food to the 800 million people who are undernourished around the world and cut emissions from the production of uneaten food, which account for eight percent of the total contributing to climate change. “There’s simply no reason that so much food should be lost and wasted,” said Andrew Steer, president of the World Resources Insti-

CANFAX REPORT FED MARKET STEADY The Canfax fed steer weighted average was $160.84 per hundredweight, up 75 cents, and heifers were $154.41, down 74 cents. Most dressed sales were active in a tight trading range of $267-$270 delivered. Both federally inspected Alberta slaughter plants were in the cash market last week. Prices were weaker for deferred delivery. A significant volume of clean-up yearlings were marketed. The weekly cash-to-futures basis weakened $4.50 but remained seasonally strong at +$1.59. Western Canadian fed slaughter for the four-day kill week ending May 28 was down 21 percent at 28,271 head. Total slaughter is running four percent behind last year at this time. Weekly fed exports to May 21 fell 35 percent to 3,896 head. But for the year, exports are up 44 percent. Most yearlings are now sold, and market-ready fed calf inventories are fairly current, although larger supplies are expected soon. The seasonal price trend from now to the end of July is lower, but in five of the past 10 years June fed prices have risen. Trade in the U.S. cash market did not develop until Friday. Live sales in the southern United States were up about $3 at U S$128, and dressed sales in the north rose $4-$8 to $206. Futures were significantly undervalued relative to cash price, and analysts think improved grilling weather in the U.S. should spur beef demand. American feeders have been marketing steadily to try to reduce the number of cattle that will be market-ready during the usual slack period in mid-summer.

COWS RISE Many producers are making their final culling decisions and will soon turn cattle out to pasture. The culls increased the numbers at auction, but there was good packer demand, helping lift prices. D1, D2 cows ranged $94-$110 to average $102.50, up $2.50. D3 cows ranged $84-$100 to average $93.38, up about $4. D1, D2 prices are $45 lower than the same time last year, but they are in line with the four year (201215) weekly average.

tute, which has led work on the standard. “Now we have a powerful new tool that will help governments and businesses save money, protect resources and ensure more people get the food they need,” he added in a statement. Often companies, countries or cities lack information about how much, why and where food is removed from the supply chain. Definitions of food loss and waste also vary widely, making comparisons hard, according to a document on the new standard. “It is challenging to manage what you do not measure,” it noted.

Global annual food waste is pegged at $940 billion. | Other organizations that developed the standard include the Consumer Goods Forum, the FAO,

WP LIVESTOCK REPORT This year, cow exports to the U.S. are up four percent, while butcher bull exports are down 28 percent. Record high prices for slaughter bulls last year encouraged producers to cull mature bulls and bring in new bulls at a reasonable cost. Also, Canadian packers have been active buyers, and bull slaughter is up 74 percent over last year.

FEEDERS STEADY Most producers have bought what they need for the grazing season. This is the time of year when heavier feeder prices usually start to rally because bigger cattle are no longer being placed against the traditionally sluggish summerearly fall fed market. In seven out of the past 10 years, 850 pound steers have strengthened from May to June. The average increase was four percent. That would put 850 pound steers in late June at about $183. To achieve that four percent increase this year would require a rally in the December Chicago life cattle contract. Weekly feeder cattle exports totalled 8,092 head, the fifth consecutive week where exports have trended above year ago levels. Barley bids have weakened, pressured by softer demand from feedlots and the export market.

BEEF BUYING PICKS UP Signs are that beef sales for the U.S. Memorial Day weekend were good. It, along with the July 4 and Labor Day long weekends, are critical for beef demand. Memorial Day weekend in 2014 accounted for 100 million pounds of beef sales. Choice cutouts June 2 were US$223.28, up 56 cents, and Select was $201.41, down $1.85. Canadian cutouts to May 27 were AAA at C$277.95, up $2.18, and AA at 265.25, up $3.12.

HOGS RISE

BISON STEADY

Rising pork prices, good export demand from China and ideas that a hot summer in the U.S. Midwest could slow weight gain all supported hog prices last week. The U.S. national live price average for barrows and gilts was $57.20 per cwt. June 3, up from $56.90 May 27. U.S. hogs averaged $75.09 on a carcass basis June 3, up from $72.20 May 27. The U.S. pork cutout was $85.92 per cwt. June 3, up from $83.56 May 27. T h e e s t i m a t e d U. S. w e e k l y slaughter for the holiday-shortened week to June 3 was 1.899 million, down from 2.181 million the previous week. Slaughter was 2.120 million last year at the same time. In Canada, the Maple Leaf Signature Three price was C$80.34 per hundredweight and $177.11 per 100 kilograms, down slightly from $81.06 and $178.71 the week before.

The Canadian Bison Association said Grade A bulls in the desirable weight range sold at prices up to C$6 per pound hot hanging weight. U.S. buyers are offering US$4.45 with returns dependent on exchange rates, quality and export costs. Grade A heifers sold up to C$5.75 U.S. buyers are offering US$4.35. Animals outside the desirable buyer specifications may be discounted.

SHEEP LOWER Beaver Hill Auction in Tofield, Alta., reported 617 sheep and 88 goats sold May 30. Wool lambs lighter than 54 pounds were $205-$287.50 per hundredweight, 55 to 69 pounds were $231-$262, 70 to 85 lb. were $224-$260, 86 to 105 pounds were $190-$229 and 106 pounds and heavier were $183-$207.

Wool rams were $72-$103 per hundredweight. Cull ewes were $73-$162. Ha i r l a m b s l i g h t e r t h a n 5 4 pounds were $195-$265 per hundredweight, 55 to 69 pounds were $224-$250, 70 to 85 pounds were $220-$250, 86 to 105 pounds were $185-$219 and 106 pounds and heavier were $160-$184. Hair rams were $98-$110 per hundredweight. Cull ewes were $85-$181. Feeder kids lighter than 60 pounds were $250-$275. Good kid goats lighter than 70 pounds were $270-$305. Those heavier than 70 pounds were $300-$360 per hundredweight. Nannies were $100$230 per hundredweight. Billies were $145-$310. Ontario Stockyards Inc. reported that 1,306 sheep and lambs and 48 goats traded May 30. New crop lambs traded barely steady to slightly lower. Heavy lambs saw active trade but prices slipped.

CRAIG’S VIEW

FAITH IN SCIENCE DOESN’T CONVINCE

Farmers trump scientists in consumer trust surveys

ou are at one of those grocery stores where they give out samples. A person in a white lab coat, whom you are told is a scientist, is handing out small bits of food in a paper cup. She tells you about the testing done on this particular product that proves it is safe. A few aisles down, a person whom you are told is a farmer is handing out the identical product in an identical paper cup. He tells you how he planted, grew and harvested the food at his farm. Which product sample do you choose? Extrapolating from a recent study by the Canadian Centre for Food Integrity, most people would choose the sample handed out by the farmer. Data shows 61 percent of non-farming consumers have a very or somewhat positive view of agriculture, up 20 percent from 2006, and 69 percent view farmers favourably as sources of information on food and farming. Farmers are at the top of the latter list, ahead of doctors, friends and family, humane societies and scientific and academic researchers. Gauging the level of public trust in agriculture was the primary reason for the survey, so the fact that information provided by farmers is viewed more favourably than information from scientists deserves a close look. Think how often farming practices, when questioned, are defended on the basis of science. Research shows genetically modified crops are safe. Research shows responsibly used pesticides are safe. Research shows hormone implants in cattle are safe. In fact, scientific research proves all of those things, but it hasn’t calmed the

fears of many consumers. They continue to question the science, or its validity, or its objectivity, or they have another reason for skepticism. So when those in the agriculture industry explain or feel the need to defend various practices using science as a basis, they aren’t winning the trust of consumers. Agriculture depends on science and relies upon it to increase productivity and sustainability. It is absolutely crucial to the industry’s existence and development. Yet science doesn’t resonate with today’s largely urban consumers. What does resonate? Honest information from farmers themselves. The Center for Food Integrity has found that confidence in the source is three to five times more important in building trust than is the competence of the source. That doesn’t mean farmers are incompetent; quite the contrary. Instead, it shows the importance of gaining consumer trust by connecting first with hearts and then with minds. Charlie Arnot, chief executive officer of the U.S. Centre for Food Integrity, puts it this way: “If people trust you, science doesn’t matter. And if people don’t trust you, science doesn’t matter. Science only matters after you cross that trust threshold.” Perhaps the best way for farmers to cross that threshold is to always acknowledge that they are consumers too and they do things for a reason. Discuss.

POLITICIANS GET EDUCATED

Liberals tread unfamiliar ground on agricultural issues CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

t has grown into one of the key hot-button issues facing agriculture — the widening gap between how farmers farm and how people want their food produced. Addressing consumer desires in a social media, instant-information world is routinely a topic of conversation amongst agriculture folks. Typically, most of the attention is paid to the gulf between the consumer and the farmer —with the hope of reconnecting people to where their food comes from. Here in Ottawa, however, the conversation around the widening agriculture knowledge gap has shifted to teaching politicians and policy makers about the industry.

When the Liberals were elected in October 2015, they did so with little backing or support from rural Canada. There were a few exceptions, most notably in the Maritimes where the Liberals swept all 32 seats. There were also a handful of Liberal wins in rural seats in Ontario and Quebec. But the conversation shift is noticeable, particularly to agriculture stakeholders in Western Canada, who had become used to dealing with a federal Conservative government that had made agricultural policy a priority. For the current, more urban government, the learning curve since taking office has been significant — a factor more than a few MPs have acknowledged in conversation over the past eight months. The Liberals have experienced growing pains on several files, particularly when hit with procedural manoeuvres by the opposition — procedural tricks that at one point almost cost the Liberals a major vote on a government bill (Some 40 MPs were missing at the time the

The shortage of labourers is costing the agriculture sector $1.5 billion in losses — a number that stunned Liberal MPs. | FILE PHOTO vote was called). On the agriculture file, Liberals have kept their cards close to their chests, but the knowledge gap has reared its head in various situations. This includes conversations with stakeholders about specific issues or in watching the House of Commons agriculture committee struggle to set an agenda. With so few Liberals in caucus possessing an agriculture background, the crash course on issues like diafiltered milk, grain transportation and produce insurance

has been apparent. Then there’s the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and agriculture’s ongoing labour shortage. For the past few weeks, the House of Commons standing committee on human resources has been reviewing the program. As of July 1, pending action by the government, the number of temporary foreign workers allowed in a company’s workforce will sit at 10 percent. It is rumoured the federal government is considering keeping the cap at its current level of 20 percent, but no official notice of

these intentions has been given at this time. Canada’s agriculture industry has been arguing for years that one of the biggest challenges facing the industry is labour, with urban Canadians unwilling to move to rural communities. The shortfall, the Canadian Human Resource Council has noted, is costing the sector $1.5 billion in on-farm losses annually. That number stunned MPs on the committee. The committee’s recommendations are expected to be finalized in the next few weeks, with a report then expected to be sent back to the House for consideration. The government has announced several summer consultations, including a handful of agriculture ones. Those consultations are a chance for stakeholders to talk about their priorities. They’re also a chance to start exposing politicians to the wonderful world of Canadian agriculture. Kelsey Johnson is a reporter with iPolitics, www.ipolitics.ca.

Who will feed us in the future?

Technology offers best path to food security

BY DAN MAZIER

anitobans put a priority on eating local food, and that means we need local farmers to produce that food. But alarmingly, we’re losing them in droves. The average age of a farmer in Manitoba is 55, so retirement for many is on the horizon. As well, the high cost of buying and running a farm business has resulted in a 73 percent drop over 20 years in the number of farmers younger than 35. Young farmers are telling me that securing farmland has become too cost-prohibitive. For example, land in southwestern Manitoba has been selling at up to $2,000 an acre more than it did five or six years ago, which means an average-sized farm could cost $3 million for the land alone. It’s difficult for young people to carry this debt load as they begin their careers. The costs to operate the farm can be prohibitive even if a young farmer chooses to rent land instead of buying. Sixteen years ago, it cost slightly less than $250,000 in annual expenses to run an average-sized farm in Manitoba. That same farm now requires almost $500,000 to keep it running for a year, based on inputs, land and machinery costs, depreciation, storage and labour. With these expenses, one bad season could wipe out a young farmer. Not having equity in the farm business means that one flood, one drought, one early frost or a decline in livestock prices

The federal and provincial governments must support young farmers with innovative programs to keep family farms producing quality, local food. | STOCK PHOTO would make it impossible for them to pay what they borrowed for operating expenses. Young farmers entering agriculture or those having recently entered need backup in the form of solid and meaningful programs that will help them lower their risk. Only then will we see more farmers younger than 35 entering the business. A recent poll by Keystone Agricultural Producers shows that 82 percent of Manitobans want to see government do more to assist young farmers. Those of us in the

agriculture industry are concerned about its future, and it appears other Manitobans are, too. Programs exist to manage risk for all farmers, but they have been significantly watered down to the point that many wonder whether buying into them is worth it. Not only do the new federal and provincial governments need to return these programs to pre-2013 levels, but they must also make special concessions within them for young farmers. I would also like to see new and

innovative programs that support young farmers so they can continue the agricultural tradition in Manitoba of producing food for local families. By providing this assistance, the next government will ensure Manitobans can continue to access safe and affordable local food.

PRODUCTION OUTLOOK

Stars aligning for good crop, barring disaster HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

here could be one heck of a big crop in Western Canada this year. Railways take note. It’s dangerous to make production predictions in the first part of June. While a lot of things could go wrong and alter the forecast, we seldom get off to such a good start. If you’re playing the odds, there are many checkmarks in the positive column. Seeding was early in most areas, well ahead of the five-year average. Early seeded crops usually yield better, plus they are less prone to damage from an early fall frost. Soil moisture started the spring very short in much of Alberta and western Saskatchewan. That has

seen a major reversal. Timely rain will still be needed, and some regions are sitting with less than normal precipitation, but the areas reporting short and very short soil moisture are relatively small. On the other hand, there isn’t a large-scale flooding battle. In the past, we’ve seen millions of acres go unseeded due to wet conditions. One of the biggest threats could be excess moisture on pulse crops, particularly lentils. With lentils seeded over an expanded region, root rots could take a toll if the weather turned abnormally wet. Hailstorms are a constant threat, and they certainly affect crop production in specific areas. However, they don’t tend to be a big threat to overall production potential. In fact, the rainfall that accompanies a storm can be a net benefit. Last year, prairie agriculture plucked victory from the jaws of defeat. Crops benefited much more than expected from late rain, which generated yields beyond early expectations for many producers.

We’re off to a much better start, so the early prognosis has to be a crop that’s well above average. In fact, the potential exists to produce a crop that rivals the record set back in 2013. That caught the industry by surprise, particularly the railways, and the backlog cost producers a great deal of money. You should never count your chicks before they hatch, and that kind of caution is valuable at the farm level. Even in years of record crops, there will be individual producers who suffer poor production. Big production equals low prices in the minds of producers, and that’s why farmers don’t generally like to see optimistic production predictions. In fact, producers can be downright hostile to such forecasts. However, low-balling production potential doesn’t help gear up for the logistical challenges created by a big crop. Conservative forecasts are good when a producer calculates cash flow needs and potential profitability.

Those forecasts aren’t helpful for predicting the need for hopper cars, locomotives and crews. Of course, there’s no way to predict quality this early. Disease issues and/or wet harvest weather could mean an ugly grade distribution. However, looking only at the potential quantity, this has the makings of a big crop. If the tap turns off and it doesn’t rain for the rest of the summer or if the tap turns on and the rain won’t stop for the rest of the summer, the outcome will be different. If conditions aren’t extreme, production could be very good. If conditions happen to remain more favourable than normal, a really big crop is in the offing. Similar to 2013, grain carryover is going to be low, and the first couple months of the new crop year will not see big movement. That will change by October if we’re lucky enough to produce another whopper. Let’s be ready this time. Kevin Hursh is an agricultural journalist, consultant and farmer.

re there enough acres to feed the world? Maybe, for now. W h i l e t h e p o p u l at i o n increases, the amount of land we use to produce crops remains relatively stable, up about 14 percent in my lifetime. The world’s population is about 7.25 billion; in 1960 it was three billion. The relationship between those two pieces of information has significantly changed and will keep changing as some of the most productive land is lost to urban growth, water shortages and salinity. Meanwhile, more and more of the lessproductive land will be cropped. In short, food creation is becoming more tenuous while supply and demand curves get closer together. The free market is sometimes enough to spark greater efficiencies, but this requires global incomes to increase enough to drive demand and then spark technological improvements. With greater supplies come lower prices, which in turn then caps research and adoption. The Green Revolution has created a five-fold increase in cereal production in developing countries since 1960, bailing the world out of its last population calamity. It was built on a combination of mechanization, agronomic information, fertilizer and genetics. But now yield increases seem to have plateaued, while the population has not. In fact, that growing population is moving into the higher calorie-consuming middle class. The next phase in food production gains needs to come from technology and extension agriculture. Small-scale organics might create jobs, but in most cases it won’t create more food. These are global issues. But here in Western Canada we have a new centre developing these technologies and the methods to scale them for adoption by farmers around the world. The Global Institute for Food Security has recently opened in Saskatoon and next week more than 300 people from around the planet will be there for a conference dealing with these issues. The Western Producer will host a live stream of a debate chaired by Rex Murphy on technology in food production on the opening day, producer.com/GIFSconf2016.

SUPPORTED CWB To the Editor: I am a farmer and proud of it. To clarify the issue in Brad Levorson’s letter (May 19, WP), I was not forced by the Canadian Wheat Board to do anything. There were other crops to grow. I supported, and I was glad to have, the CWB monopoly blend and market my grain. I got what it was worth, including the profit, less the cost for doing so. Now the grain companies pocket that profit and charge me whatever basis they choose. I am not a member of the Canadian Wheat Board Alliance or the National Farmers Union. The number of members they have is irrelevant to the number of active farmers who agree with their point of view. I too, was born and raised on a farm and my family supported the CWB from its inception. I continued that support, as it was in my best interest. Unfortunately, we can’t turn the clock back but I believe Levorson’s opinion does not represent the majority of farmers. Lynn Sangster Assiniboia, Sask.

BOND WASN’T ENOUGH To the Editor: Will the Canadian Grain Commission ever learn? Years ago, we were owed many thousands of dollars when Naber Seed & Grain Co. Ltd. went into receivership. As is the case now, the bond the CGC held was pitifully inadequate. All of us owed money by Naber received next to nothing. Surely, after a company declares bankruptcy, the CGC would be more aware the second time and require a larger bond. We had done our due diligence and inquired of the CGC as to whether Naber was bonded. We were told yes. After the receivership we found out that the CGC will tell you a company is bonded but they would not disclose the amount of the bond. Had we been able to obtain that information, we would never have contracted with Naber. How many times can the same company go into receivership — with huge losses to farmers — before the CGC will insist on a more adequate security bond? The $150,000 bond is a joke.

Farmers welcome move to reduce red tape

Ag budget up, RMs upset no hike for roads

A task force will look at ag regulations that producers say stifle growth and profits BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

For years, the Manitoba Pork Council has claimed the province’s hog industry is the “most highly regulated” in North America. It’s difficult to prove that sort of statement, but Manitoba hog producers do have to comply with numerous pieces of legislation, including the Environment Act, the Planning Act, the Save Lake Winnipeg Act and the Livestock Manure and Mortalities Management Regulations. Besides the hog industry, regulations became a constant source of conflict between Manitoba’s farm

community and the provincial government during the NDP’s 17 years in power. Consequently, agricultural groups are pleased with the new provincial government, which has promised to reduce and simplify business regulations. “We will soon establish a Red Tape Reduction Task Force to eliminate the needless impediments that frustrate business owners and individual citizens,” Finance Minister Cameron Friesen said in late May during the first budget speech for the Progressive Conservative government, which was elected in April. Dan Mazier, Keystone Agricul-

tural Producers president, said the excessive regulations curbed growth and profits within Manitoba’s ag industry. “On average, half of the policies we adopt each year are related to these challenges…. The amount of regulations (on) expanding (a farm) is getting to be quite cumbersome,” he said. “Farm buildings… depending on what area of the province you are… a person can do one thing in one part of the province and can’t do (it) in another part… and no one can explain why.” Moving equipment from field to field can also cause headaches because farmers must satisfy rules on equipment length and height.

“If you have seeding equipment (and) you’re over 100 feet long, you have to get a permit for that. You have to renew your Hydro permit every 90 days for overheight,” Mazier said. “Things like that drive you nuts.” robert.arnason@producer.com

Agricultural leaders were pleasantly surprised to see a 7.5 percent increase in sector spending in last week’s Saskatchewan budget. The ministry saw a larger percentage increase than health, at 1.5 percent, and education at 0.7 percent, in a budget that projects a $434 million deficit on spending of $14.46 billion. Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan president Norm Hall said the increase indicates that agriculture is viewed as the province’s economic backbone. “That in itself is a story,” he said after seeing the June 1 budget details. The agriculture budget for fiscal 2016-17 is estimated at $390 million, compared to $361 million last year. It includes an additional $14.6 million to fully fund business risk management programs at a total of $254 million. Crop insurance premiums are up significantly to go along with increasing coverage levels, said Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart. The increase also comes from a $17.2 million estimated expenditure on the crown land sale incentive program, which was introduced in November. The program offers a 10 percent discount to lessees of crown land that is farmed or was once farmed. The discount is in place until Dec. 31, when the program will wind up a year ahead of schedule. Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association president Doug Gillespie said his organization was pleased there are no tax increases in this budget and that agricultural spending was boosted. “For the way things are, I think we have to be relatively pleased with how things went,” he said, referring to declining provincial revenue caused by low resource prices. The Saskatchewan Cattlemen’s Association also appreciated the status quo on taxes. “We’re in the process of building t h e h e rd t o m e e t i n c re a s i n g demand, and we can’t do that with a higher tax burden, especially in light of the current volatility in the cattle futures market,” said chair Ryan Beierbach. Ray Orb, president of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities, said RMs are disappointed they didn’t receive more money for roads. They wanted funding for the Municipal Roads for the Economy Program returned to 2013-14 levels of $25.5 million. Instead, they will stay at last year’s level of $16 million. They also wanted a two-year funding commitment, but didn’t get one. “We would ask the province to rethink that if oil or potash revenues went up,” Orb said. However, he said SARM is happy with the agriculture budget and pleased to see that SaskTel plans to spend $300 million to improve its network across the province. karen.briere@producer.com

CONSUMER SURVEY

New food policy centre aims to inform Canadian Centre for Food Integrity launches with mandate to win over public trust on agricultural issues OTTAWA — Half of Canadians surveyed in a recent poll are unsure that agriculture is headed in the right direction. Some 93 percent say they know little or nothing about farming, and 60 percent would like to know more about farming practices. Farm and Food Care Canada, a non-profit group that seeks to earn public trust in food and farming, looked at those statistics and concluded further action was needed. On May 31, it launched the Canadian Centre for Food Integrity, which is affiliated with the U.S. Center for Food Integrity that has been operating since 2007. Its stated goal is to work with members and the food industry at large “sharing information that demonstrates our values regarding outstanding animal care and environmental stewardship for the producers of safe, affordable food.”

Results of a survey of 2,510 Canadians, done in Febr uar y and March, accompanied the launch, and an annual survey is planned now that the CCFI has been established. “It’s day one of a 25-year game plan,” said Farm and Food Care chief executive officer Crystal Mackay. “This first year was really important to capture some benchmark data and make sure the public trust model was right for Canada.” Earning public trust is the thrust of the initiative, and while survey data showed that farmers top the list in terms of favourable impression, it also showed concern about farm practices, food costs and nutrition. “This journey is about social licence, engagement, earning public trust. It is about the entire Canadian food system,” said Kim McCo-

including restaurant chains, egg, poultry, beef and pork groups and food, feed and seed companies. The annual membership fee structure ranges from $25,000 for corporations to $10,000 for provincial non-profit associations and government agencies. Membership grants access to annual survey data, networking and opportunities for collaboration on shared goals. McConnell said the plan is to get more individuals and food and agriculture industries involved, all with the aim of establishing consumer trust in the food and farming sector. “This is the first topic I’ve ever seen in my career, the first one, where the entire food industry says this is what we need,” he said in an interview. During a presentation at the Public Trust Summit May 31, McCon-

nell encouraged the 200 people who gathered for the event to align themselves with that goal. As a strategic adviser to Farm and Food Canada, he said some things have become obvious. “We learned the importance of having the full value chain participation. We learned that production agriculture and processing probably needs to think a little stronger about and give higher appreciation to what consumers are expecting. “We also learned that the food sector probably needs to at times have greater appreciation for science based and supported production practices.” He also said government must stand up for regulatory systems and help build consumers’ confidence in the farm and food sector. barb.glen@producer.com

CONSUMER SURVEY

Most consumers see farmers as trustworthy: survey But consumers don’t know much about agriculture and aren’t convinced farmers are good environmental stewards BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

OTTAWA — Farmers make a favourable impression among Canadian consumers. A recent survey of 2,500 people, weighted to represent the nonfarming Canadian population old-

er than 17, showed 69 percent view farmers in a warm and friendly way in terms of providing information about food. And, compared to data obtained in another survey in 2012, Canadian agriculture is being viewed more positively, with 61 percent giving it the thumbs up today com-

mental stewards. Paradoxically, farmers and ranchers rate highest when consumers were asked who they believe most on environmental issues. Those are only a few statistics in data obtained by the Canadian Centre for Food Integrity, contracted by Farm and Food Care Canada, to explore public trust in the food system. Crystal Mackay, chief executive officer of Farm and Food Care, said the survey showed numerous points of disconnect between public views and how the farm and food industry views itself. Environmental stewardship is one of them. “This is a low, I would say, on the report card and inconsistent with the fact that they view farmers very positively. We definitely need some improvement there.” Another inconsistency relates to food costs. In the survey, consumers rated food affordability as the top life concern. Sixty-nine percent listed the rising cost of food as a concern, followed by 66 percent who listed “keeping healthy food affordable” as a concern. However, only 13 percent of those surveyed believe Canadian food is the most affordable in the world. “You know that this is a fact,” said Mackay, “so there is absolutely a disconnect here. Note that concern about food affordability … is the

most important topic to Canadians and they don’t actually believe that we have affordable food right now.” The survey also sought to explore public attitudes about hormone use in food animals, pesticide and antibiotic residue in crops and meats, genetically modified crops and animal welfare. “People in crop production feel really strongly about issues related to pesticides or genetic modification. People on the animal side are concerned about hormones or antibiotics,” said Mackay. “The public basically views them all with a similar level of concern.” Seventy-three percent of those surveyed believe videos of farm animals being poorly treated are representative of normal livestock production, and 25 percent think animals should have the same rights as humans. Food industry consultant David Smith advised caution about the “halo effect” surrounding the favourable rating given farmers and agriculture. “It’s a great halo, and what is that halo? Let’s understand it,” said Smith, who helped lead the CCFI launch. “Is that the reality of a modern food system that is providing affordable food or is this some static notion that they may have about buying local and buying CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

LABELLING

Trust issues: consumers more apt to trust opinions of friends, family over scientists BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

OT TAWA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Amid concerns about pesticide, antibiotic and hormone residues in food, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one additive the public embraces: adjectives. Organic, new season, free range, environmentally friendly, heritage â&#x20AC;&#x201D; all these descriptors are used on food products to boost sales. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like meat with adjectives, please,â&#x20AC;? quipped David Hughes, professor emeritus in food marketing at Imperial College London. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The margin is in the adjectives.â&#x20AC;? A key adjective is â&#x20AC;&#x153;free,â&#x20AC;? as in antibiotic-free, hormone-free, GMO free, gluten free and so on, he added. This trend concerns many farmers and ranchers, who defend conventionally raised crops and livestock by pointing to science that shows it is safe. However, a recent survey found that consumers, especially young people, are skeptical about food production and safety and are

more likely to trust the opinions of their friends and family over scientific research. Charlie Arnot, chief executive officer at the U.S.-based Center for Food Integrity, said the food industry tends to think the public will trust scientific research and knowledge about any given production practice. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t and it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. Speaking at the launch of the Canadian Centre for Food Integrity May 31, Arnot said the food industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reliance on science as a way to educate the public makes flawed assumptions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust us, (we think) the problem is we simply havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t given them the right information,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153; S o l e t â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s g o d o s o m e m o r e research. If they still donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust us,

letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go do some more research. And if they still donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust us, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do some more research. And we repeat that cycle over and over again for decades, assuming that if we find the right decimal point, somehow itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to unlock a magic key and people will trust us.â&#x20AC;? However, the centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research has shown that confidence is three to five times more important to building trust than is competence. Farmers, processors, food companies and other food industry players may be competent, with science to back them, but consumer trust depends more heavily on other attributes, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Can you authentically communicate a commitment of values like c o m p a s s i o n , re s p o n s i b i l i t y , respect, fairness and truth, the

kinds of values that consumers expect from us?â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Absolutely do not abandon science. Please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ever interpret this as saying we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need science. We do. But it has to play a different role in our public communication.â&#x20AC;? Arnot said science shows what can be done, but the public wants to know whether it should be done. â&#x20AC;&#x153; T h e p r o b l e m i s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;c a n â&#x20AC;&#x2122; a n d â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;shouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; are not the same question. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is a question about competency. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Shouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is a question about values and ethics,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really good at answering the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; question. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not so good at answering the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;shouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; question. Very few people are debating whether or not we can. The debate is around whether or not we should.â&#x20AC;?

Arnot said the food industry has already lost control of the conversation about food production. Now it is a matter of engaging people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If people trust you, science doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter. And if people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust you, science doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter. Science only matters after you cross that trust threshold.â&#x20AC;? Crystal Mackay, chief executive officer of CCFIâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parent organization, Farm and Food Care Canada, acknowledged the problem. She said farmers tend to talk peer to peer in a trusted situation, such as to neighbours or veterinarians or tractor mechanics. Dealing with consumers who arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily knowledgeable about farming requires a different approach. barb.glen@producer.com

FARM SAFETY

4-H CANADA

4-H reaches kids outside agriculture

Program aims to eliminate child fatalities on the farm

BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The safety program is delivered to schools across Alberta and has expanded into Saskatchewan BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

More than half a million rural Alberta schoolchildren have been taught about farm safety through the efforts of the Farm Safety Centre Safety Smarts program. The milestone was celebrated in May in Raymond, Alta., where the non-profit organization is based. Formed 18 years ago, the centre is on track this year to deliver the farm safety message to more than 65,000 children in Grades 1 to 6. Its stated goal is to eliminate child fatalities in rural Alberta. Executive director Laura Nelson said the ability to reach so many students is due to the eight dedicated instructors, all of whom understand life on the farm. “The bedrock foundation is that we really try to hire those who’ve grown up on a farm, from that background, because they kind of understand the good and bad,” said Nelson.

LAURA NELSON FARM SAFETY CENTRE

The instructors have their own stories to tell about farm accidents and safety, and Nelson said they also hear many stories from the children they teach, about near misses and also about tragedy. Such was the case when a Grade 2 class was given a lesson on the dangers of drowning. “It was the end of the day before the bus came, so the classroom teacher said, ‘do any of you have anything you’d like to talk about?’ And this little girl stood up and said, ‘my sister and I drowned and they could reach me but they couldn’t reach my sister and she died.’ Her teacher said that’s the first time she’d ever talked about it, but she felt comfortable enough to tell her class that,” said Nelson. Such incidents resonate with children and make for a dedicated group of instructors. “This isn’t just a job for them, it really isn’t, and the kids feel that.”

The centre has seen some lean years, when funding was insufficient to provide classes through the end of the school year. Nelson recalls one such year, when she had to ask the instructors to cancel school visits. “They said, ‘it doesn’t matter, we’re still going.’ Because they care.” It takes an annual budget of $430,00 to $450,000 to run the program, provided at no cost to the schools. The centre received most of its funding in the early days from the province, but now it taps a number of sources, including towns, counties, rural municipalities, Hutterite colonies, agricultural societies and corporate sponsors. More than 170 entities contributed cash to sustain the program last year. Funding needs are based on a cost of $3.50 for every child who receives farm safety instruction. “We hope in the not too distant future to have 200 or 300 contributions a year that are more modest,” said Nelson.“Even if any of those have a change in focus, it’s not going to cripple the program.” Controversy over Bill 6, farm safety legislation passed by Alberta’s NDP government last year, generated concern over the centre’s role. “We work with government. We work with farmers. We don’t speak for either of them,” said Nelson. “The government does fund a portion of this program, but we are an independent non-profit. It doesn’t mean we’re beholden to them or that we only present what they want. (The provincial government) has always been a very good partner and willing to help how they’re able.” The program has evolved over the years. It initially delivered the farm safety message to 2,300 children but gradually expanded until 2008, when a grant from the Rural Alberta Development Fund allowed a programming upgrade that led to computer games and a more interactive approach to teaching. The program now stretches across Alberta and also reaches 12 to 20 schools in Saskatchewan. Each grade receives instruction in a different area of farm safety, from the risk of getting run over, to hearing protection, to avoiding injury from livestock and ATV use. Instructors have travelled more than 1.3 million kilome-

ters, and have reached 541,125 schoolchildren since it started 18 years ago. The celebration of this milestone involved the instructors, the 10-member board that administers the centre and many others.

The centre is now working to deliver the farm safety message through social media, including Facebook, Pinterest and YouTube. barb.glen@producer.com

It Can Happen To Me Get a Grip: Safety’s in My Hands

CALGARY —B.C. 4-H numbers grew by 12 percent this year, mirroring smaller increases in the program in Manitoba, Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island. Delegates cited increases stemming from six- and seven-year-olds and aboriginals joining, leaders using innovative formats and the recent launch of the new 4-H logo. “Some provinces have really upped their numbers, some others have seen slight declines,” said Donna Bridge, president of the 4-H Canada board of directors. “We will look to see why they’re seeing those declines,” she said in an interview during the national rural youth group’s annual conference in Calgary. While Ontario, Alberta, Quebec and Nova Scotia recorded a drop in 4-H members, overall numbers across Canada have remained just under 25,000 in recent years. Nationally, Bridge said the group is now supporting members by delivering more programs directly to the clubs and regions. She also cited increases in scholarships, sponsorships and programs like Proud to Bee a 4-Her. In her address to the conference, she cited the importance of guidance and insight from 4-H’s Youth Advisory Council to ensure the program remains relevant to members. Claudette Martin, 4-H B.C. manager, credits her program’s increase to promotional work done during the provincial program’s 100th anniversary year in 2014, initiatives like Br ing a Fr iend days and increases in urban clubs. The group had 2,366 members and 630 volunteer leaders in 201415, compared with 2,195 and similar leader numbers a year earlier. Mar tin said livestock clubs focused on beef, dairy, light horses, and sheep are the most popular. She said 4-H has evolved beyond just animals to include projects like photography and small engines. “It’s not just strictly farm kids, but kids who have a connection to agriculture,” she said. “It’s not just about raising your dog or sheep or tractor, it’s so much more,” Martin, citing the development of skills in organization, leadership and communication. Martin said the B.C. program now needs to focus on its volunteers . “They need more contact, more training. They’re telling us they need that,” she said. “We haven’t done as much of that as we would like.” karen.morrison@producer.com

Fifth generation appears likely for Kress family The three children are enthusiastic helpers on the farm, doing chores and caring for the cattle and poultry BY CHRISTALEE FROESE FREELANCE WRITER

KENDAL, Sask. — Fourth generation farmers Jodi and Dennis Kress didn’t have to work hard to get the fifth generation involved. As soon as their first child, Owen, could walk, he was interested in helping with chores. By the time Zoe and Cole came along, the kids were part of the operation. Now that the three Kress children are six, eight and 10, they have a full slate of after-school chores that takes them about an hour to complete. Their jobs include collecting eggs, as well as feeding and watering chickens, cows and calves. They also bring a surrogate Holstein from the pasture to the barn daily to feed her calf and four additional calves.

ON THE FARM

THE KRESS FAMILY Kendal, Sask. “I like getting to be with all the animals because I like to hold them and pet them, especially the calves,” said Cole. Jodi said her kids can’t ever seem to get enough time helping out, even when it’s an all day job. “Sometimes on a Saturday, Owen will work eight hours with his dad. What kid wants to work for eight hours? It’s crazy,” said Jodi. The operation consists of 360 cow-calf pairs in addition to 500 head of feedlot cattle. The family

makes all of their own silage feed while getting deliveries of custommade pellets up to three times weekly. Jodi did not grow up on the farm but appreciates the hours it takes to run a successful operation. Even when she and Dennis were living in cities and pursuing separate careers as a lab and X-ray technician and electrician, they returned to the farm to help out. In 2005, the pull of the farm was strong and the couple, then 25, decided to return. “It was the 31st of the month and we were going to pay our rent in Regina and Dennis said, ‘why don’t we just move home,’ ” said Jodi. They were welcomed by Dennis’s farming parents, Jerome and Debbie. As the oldest child of five, Dennis always had an interest in becoming a full-time farmer. The Kress farm dates back to 1912, with Wendelin and Katharina building the original house in 1917. Their son, Martin, and his wife, Betty, later took over the mixed operation and raised 11 children. A second house was built in 2002 by Martin’s son, Jerome, who took over the farm with Debbie in 1979. Jodi and Dennis moved into the 1917 house and have been renovating and expanding as needed. In 2012, more than 150 Kress relatives gathered at the farm to mark its centennial. “I think it’s really nice that Dennis can work with his kids and that he can live in this house that has been in this family for over 100 years,” said Jodi. Dennis’s dad, Jerome, said he’s proud that five generations have been able to farm here. “It makes you feel like you did something for a reason and purpose,” said Jerome, who farms jointly with Dennis. Dennis said the upside of run-

ning a family farm is the time he gets with his kids. The downside is the enormous time commitment it

takes to keep animals fed, healthy and marketed. “You have to miss some family

things like going to dance and hockey, but you just have to be here,” he said.

and served as the spiritual centre for the Fish Creek community, not far from Batoche. It was built to replace an earlier structure destroyed by fire. According to a 1990 account by author and historian Soulange Lavigne, the Fish Creek church has been closed since 1957. However, it still stands as a beacon, commemorating the area’s rich cultural and religious heritage, along with those who nurtured it. Métis settlers established the community of Fish Creek in the late 1800s. Over time, they were joined by new Canadians of Polish and Ukrainian descent. The area’s earliest settlers made their homes on the banks of the South Saskatchewan River. There they staked out a series of narrow, elongated properties, affording each settler a portion of riverfront. Each property was roughly 200 metres wide and approximately three kilometres long. At that size, most residents had roughly 160 acres of land for grazing and food production. The Fish Creek church, now weathered and boarded, stands stoically against the prairie backdrop and is still the most visible landmark in the area. However, other remnants of the community are also evident. A few hundred metres to the east of the church, the Fish Creek cemetery offers a glimpse into the community’s past. Family names that adorn the cemetery’s gravestones include Bazowski, Boucher, Bukowsky, Delorme, Deschamps, Fediash, Fiddler, Henry, Lariviere, Ross, Tourond, Tremblay and Vandale. According to historians, most of the distinctive metal crosses in the Fish Creek cemetery were constructed by Michael Kramchynski, a Polish immigrant who arrived in the area along with his parents in the early 1890s. The parish’s first priest, predating

the existing church, was Theodor Krist. Like most early communities in the province, Fish Creek was settled mostly by farmers, but it also included a general store, a post office and ferry that traversed the South Saskatchewan. The Fish Creek post office is said to have delivered its last pieces of mail in the early 1960s. The community’s original store was operated by local resident Joseph Braconnier, whose family name is evident in the cemetery. An abandoned general store stands just a few hundred metres to the west of the church’s main entrance. However, the store operated by Braconnier has long since disappeared. Just a few kilometres to the south, a commemorative stone cairn marks the historically significant location of the Battle of Fish Creek/ Tourond’s Coulee. The battle pitted local inhabitants — mostly Metis and Cree — against Dominion of Canada forces led by Frederick Middleton. Middleton and his forces had been dispatched from Ontario by the dominion government to establish the crown’s presence in the Batoche area, a few kilometres north of Fish Creek. News of Middleton’s arrival prompted Métis fighters, led by Louis Riel and Gabriel Dumont, to orchestrate a pre-emptive military strike at Tourond’s Coulee. A number of soldiers in Middleton’s column were injured or killed in the surprise attack. After retreating, dominion troops regrouped at a temporary staging area on the banks of the South Saskatchewan before marching on to Batoche and recording a decisive military victory.

CHEESE MAKING

Saskatchewan cheese makers eager to expand product line TEAM RESOURCES

SARAH GALVIN, BSHEc

he British Columbia wine industry was good to Kirby and Crystal Froese, but after almost two decades it was time to return home to Saskatchewan. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long for their entrepreneurial spirit to resurface, and after researching various opportunities, cheese making seemed like a natural transition from wine making. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Time, temperature, pH, hygiene and patience are elements of both businesses,â&#x20AC;? said Kirby. The Froeses make a dynamite combination in small business. Kirby was the winemaker and Crystal worked in communications and marketing. They opened the Coteau Hills Creamery with a 750 litre batch pasteurizer/cheese vat. Local milk is delivered every second day from Caroncrest Farms at Caronport, Sask., and two other local dairies. Milk is pumped directly into the vat and is held at 63 C for 30 minutes before it is processed into cheese. Milk will be delivered daily as production increases. The Froeses are setting their sights on distributing their cheese throughout the country. A certificate of analysis is needed to be federally registered so that they can sell outside the province. It must accompany all the ingredients and come from a Canadian Food Inspection Agency registered facility. Their first cheese is a Balkan style feta, which is softer, creamier and saltier than a Greek feta. It will be available soon. Next they plan to experiment with other small batches of handmade cheeses without using additives to increase yield or add colour. A hamburger cheddar, a brie style, a saskatoon berry rubbed tomme style cheese are in the works. I created the following recipes using Coteau cheeses.

LAMB MEATBALLS 4 cloves garlic 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil 15 mL 1/2 c. fine dry 125 mL bread crumbs 1/4 c. toasted pine nuts 60 mL 1/4 c. crumbled Coteau 60 mL Hills Balkan style feta 1 tbsp. dried mint 15 mL 1 tbsp. dried oregano 15 mL zest of 1 lemon 1/2 tsp. salt 2 mL 1/2 tsp. ground pepper 2 mL 1 lb. lean ground lamb 500 g Combine bread crumbs, pine nuts, feta, mint, oregano, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Add lamb and mix gently to combine. Do not over mix. Form into 30 meatballs, about two tablespoons (30 mL) each, and place on a baking sheet. Bake the meatballs until browned on all sides and fully cooked, about 15 minutes. Serve with chutney or mint sauce.

MORE IDEAS FOR SERVING BALKAN STYLE FETA

PASTA EL GRECO 1 lb. linguine 450 g 1 pkg. cherry tomatoes 1 c. Coteau Hills 250 mL Creamery Balkan style feta 1 c. kalamata olives, 250 mL pitted 1 pkg. fresh spinach 1 tbsp. fresh oregano 15 mL 1 tsp. lemon zest 5 mL 2 tbsp. olive oil 30 mL freshly ground black pepper, if desired

â&#x20AC;˘ Offer a chunk of Balkan style feta with crostini and accompaniments such as mango chutney, dried fruits, fruit pate or crudite such as cherry tomatoes and carrot sticks. â&#x20AC;˘ Blend with pesto to make a spread for crackers and bread. â&#x20AC;˘ Crumble on a salad or fold into an omelet. â&#x20AC;˘ Crumble over roasted vegetables, barbecued salmon or a burger.

Prepare the ingredients before cooking the linguine. Slice cherry tomatoes in half, drain the olives and coarsely chop. Chop oregano. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

Add tomatoes, olives, spinach and oregano to the cooked and drained pasta and toss lightly. Return to heat for a minute until the spinach is wilted. Add a little pasta water, if necessary, then transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with olive oil.

PHYLLO BALKAN FETA TORTE WITH SPRING HERBS This is much lighter than a dip and can be heaped with microgreens for a dramatic effect. Serve with crostini or crackers. 1 c. fresh whole milk 250 mL ricotta 3/4 c. Coteau Hills 175 mL Creamery Balkan style feta 2 large eggs 1/3 c. chopped soft spring 75 mL herbs or baby greens (any combination of dill, mint, sorrel, chives, parsley dandelion, arugula) or pesto 1/2 tsp. ground black 2 mL pepper 1/3 c. unsalted butter, 75 mL melted 1 box phyllo dough, thawed overnight in refrigerator Preheat oven to 400 F (200 C). In a large bowl, combine ricotta, feta, egg, herbs and pepper. Brush 6 1/2 inch (16.5 cm) springform pan with some of the melted

butter. Drape two sheets of phyllo on top of Bundt pan. Do this with two more sheets placed perpendicular to the first two sheets. Continue adding phyllo sheets in this crisscross manner until all sheets are used. Edges of phyllo should hang over edges of pan. Scrape half of the ricotta filling into pan. Spread pesto over the cheese. Spoon the rest of the ricotta mixture on top. Fold edges of phyllo over filling. Using a sharp knife, poke at least 10 holes in dough that reach all the way to bottom of pan. Slowly pour melted butter over torte. Some butter will seep through holes and some will remain on top of dough. Place pan on a baking sheet and bake for about one hour or until torte is puffy and golden brown. Allow torte to cool in pan for one hour before removing from the springform pan and serving on a plate. Serve warm or at room temperature.

APPROVED BENEFIT PLANS

Drug coverage differs between provinces HEALTH CLINIC

CLARE ROWSON, MD

Why don’t provincial drug plans accept all medications? My doctor has suggested I take Prolia, but it isn’t covered in Saskatchewan. What is the process for approval, and can individuals make their case with their doctor?

This is a simple question that requires a rather complicated answer. The process for approval varies from province to province, but some of the same principles apply. Before any dr ug product is authorized for sale in Canada, the drug, manufacturer must submit scientific evidence of the product’s safety, efficacy and quality to Health Canada for approval. This can take one to two years. Once Health Canada approves a drug it does not mean it is automatically approved by provincial drug benefit plans. This takes another process involving a drug review and an advisory committee that makes recommendations to the participating jurisdictions regarding coverage. Cancer drugs and non-cancer

drugs are reviewed separately, and Quebec has its own procedure. A drug may not be covered if a less expensive, generic drug has the same chemical makeup as a brand name or if the medication or vitamin is for sale in drug stores without a prescription. Perhaps the medication is too expensive to be considered a first line choice for treatment. Newer drugs are not significantly different from older ones, which may be available in a generic form and are therefore much cheaper. Some patients may not be able to take one of the medications covered by the provincial plan but seem to be able to tolerate a newer, uncovered drug better. In this case, the doctor can write a letter detailing why the patient may need to

take the more expensive drug. Sometimes you can also contact the drug company directly if you cannot afford its product, and the company may be able to supply free samples through your doctor’s office. This could be considered an advertising and promotional expense for them. However, this may work only for a limited time. Prolia (denosunab) is an injectable medication given twice a year to help treat post-menopausal osteoporosis. The cost can be covered in most provinces if the doctor makes a special application. It is a relatively new treatment, so it is probably still undergoing the assessment process. Clare Rowson is a retired medical doctor in Belleville, Ont. Contact: health@producer.com.

Canada’s Farm Progress Show is just around the corner, and a variety of new tools and technology will reach the market for the first time. John Deere John Deere will be delivering a bigger version of its 1870 air drill, a model based on the Conserva Pak designed in Indian Head, Sask. The 1870 at that width gets the otherwise optional True Set depth and pressure control, which is handled from the tractor cab on the GreenStar 2630 display. It makes levelling the big machine easier, and producers can adjust on the fly when soil conditions change across the field. A new run blockage monitor system that measures flow rates relative to other runs and from primary to secondary hoses will also be at the Regina show. As well, the Iowa-based company will have it latest versions of the 1910 air seeder carts on the grounds with optional twin fans that will deliver up to 550 pounds of product per acre across a big drill. The fans are independently controlled, which means they can gently feed delicate canola or flax seed while moving big volumes of urea and other dry products. The bigger drill, increased from 56 feet, folds to 22.5 feet in transport. Saskatoon’s Redekop will be at the show, with a message about the issues related to poor chopping and spreading from the back end of the combines because bigger crops and headers result in highly variable distribution of residues. And if residues are an issue, Horsch will have its new RT40 Joker on site for those growers who feel

Devloo is bringing its green seed canola tester to the event, and Winnipeg’s JCA will be in town with a unique piece of equipment that allows producers to turn their tablets and other off-theshelf devices into wireless universal terminals. The prairie company plugs its Thrasher module into the tractor, sprayer or combine’s ISOBUS plug. BN Equipment is debuting its Contour Buddy, which allows

MacDon flex headers to keep their flex while positioned off the ground, creating new stubble opportunities in canola, flax and potentially lodged cereals or on rolling ground.

Kubota has made no secret of its intention to become a full line agriculture company, serving the whole business from the smallest farms in Asia to the biggest in Western Canada. However, the question is which of the current machinery builders it will acquire to reach that market penetration. Known for smaller equipment, the company added a hay tools division with the purchase of Kverneland in 2013. It released larger tractors last fall for the lowerpower end of the row crop market. It recently announced its intention to buy Kansas-based Great Plains Manufacturing. Linda Salem, who heads Great Plains, said earlier this year that the company was exploring expansion opportunities and saw the current machinery market has being “full of opportunities for a company like ours.” The five lines of Great Plains machinery, which provide traditional and cutting edge seeding and tillage technology, will give Kubota tools that are too large for its current sub-200 horsepower tractors to pull. This feeds speculation that a high horsepower tractor release or another corporate acquisition must be around the corner. Ahead of the Great Plains purchase was Kubota’s decision to locate its new North American distribution centre in Edgerton, Kansas, home of Great Plains. michael.raine@producer.com

MONITORING SYSTEM

Online network helps farmers get jump on pests Growers get weekly risk warnings on pest populations BY TENNESSA WILD SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Farmers who subscribe to the Prairie Pest Monitoring Network (PPMN) can get year-long information on what is predicted for their fields. The online prairie-wide monitoring system forecasts insect threats, monitors insect populations and offers advice on the best way to scout for pests and keep them under control. Owen Olfert is a research scientist with Agriculture Canada. He helped establish and design the network with funding provided through the Western Grain Research Foundation. “As a federal government agency, we co-ordinate these activities over the region and provide updates and risk warnings for the entire crop growing area opposed to just individual provinces,” said Olfert. He and his team operate out of Saskatoon with input from funding partners and provincial entomologists. “(The collaboration) is varied, a big input is Environment Canada and they provide us with wind trajectories.” There are three types of pests to

Information will be used to create forecast maps and provide risk warnings. | OWEN OLFERT PHOTO watch out for: migratory species, native species, and invasive alien species. Wind trajectories are important since they show if the wind is coming up into Canada from U.S. regions where pests are already an issue. Migratory species leave during cold winters and return by migration or being blown in. The PPMN can determine if the winds

will bring migratory species along with it. “The biggest threat to agriculture are the invasive alien species and those are ones that come from different parts of the world due to trade, and settlement and migrations. Those show up without natural enemies, so we have to work with our collaborators overseas to solve

some of those issues,” said Olfert. Jennifer Otani, a PPMN co-ordinator based out of Beaverlodge, Alta., and said the forecast maps are popular on the site. “The risk and the forecast maps are available in January through March. I think growers are making some choices about what crops they’re going to be buying seed for and also getting a sense of what

they need to prepare for in the coming spring,” she said. The site also produces weekly updates from May to August to help give farmers a head start in combating pest problems, said Olfert. “The benefits go to producers that get these weekly updates on pest populations and they get advance notice of population build-ups or hatch of the various insect pests and that alerts them to get out and do some timing scouting in their field to determine whether its an actual issue infield,” he said. Otani said she hopes to continue adding new features to the site. Currently, a seasonal scouting chart is available for canola growers with links to pests to watch for. She would like to see charts added for wheat and pulses. “(We’re) hopefully helping them stay on top of some of their scouting maybe give them some tips on what they need to be doing in the field, but our real strength is also making sure there are links that they can find really reliable information that is also applicable to the Canadian Prairies,” said Otani. The spring has been very hot and dry. The season has come early so Otani advises to keep watching the site. “I think we’re just going to see a lot of insect activity and perhaps a bit earlier than some growers might be used to,” said Otani. tennessa.wild@producer.com

» CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE Canola flowers are responsible for 80 percent of the honey produced in Canada, and 85 percent of flowering plants depend on pollinators for reproduction. Studies have found that bees and other pollinators can provide up to 15 percent more yield when canola is self-pollinating. However, a balance is required between bees and pesticides. Agricultural practices have a direct effect on the surrounding environment, and precautions are necessary to keep bees safe. The app allows farmers to record when they are spraying and where. Beekeepers can respond by taking precautions, such as moving their hives. “Bees and pesticides are critical for agriculture,” Petelle said. “Canadian agriculture relies quite heavily on our technologies

and a lot of them require pollination, so we see this app as a perfect fit.” The app enables instant messaging between registered users, while keeping their identity private. The communication can be a one-way line or broadcast to registered users within a five-kilometre radius. Fifty percent of the registered users are beekeepers, and the bee industry requested that the app keep communication closed between beekeepers so that hive locations could be kept confidential. There is a history of vandalism to hives across Western Canada. Beekeepers also suggested the five-kilometre radius because it’s considered the approximate forage range for bees. “(We) had some suggestions about including best management practices and links for applicators or even for beekeepers,” Petelle said.

Beekeepers would like to see a commitment from industry partners to question why they are not promoting the reduction of pesticide use. SHELLY CANDEL BEE CITY CANADA

“This year is kind of a soft launch. We want users to experience it, give us some suggestions, so we’re going to be actively seeking feedback at the end of this growing season.” He encouraged farmers and beekeepers to register and take advantage of the app. The honey council said the initiative will have a positive impact on the industry: “Successful stewardship requires

collaboration, engagement and support by all stakeholders. Where this occurs, the community can be assured that best practices are being consistently applied for the safety of users, consumers and the environment, including and especially for managing any risks to pollinators.” Shelly Candel, director of Bee City Canada, said the app is a good initial step in starting communications. “Beekeepers would like to see a

commitment from industry partners to question why they are not promoting the reduction of pesticide use,” she said. “Research shows that there is at least a 65 percent overuse of pesticides on corn and soybean.” Her organization focuses on habitat loss and pesticide use as the major contributors to bee decline. “Pollinators and especially bees require a diverse selection of flowers, preferably native, blooming from early spring to late fall,” said Candel. Her organization distributes tools and information and registers communities as Bee Cities. Toronto has recently joined the organization to protect pollinators and advocate on their behalf. Any city committed to pollinators can register at beecitycanda.org. tennessa.wild@producer.com

SPRAYING TIPS The Saskatchewan and Manitoba crop protection guides provide the following recommendations to maximize pollination benefits to canola and keep good working relationships with beekeepers:

PRECISION HAS EVOLVED.

• Carefully sample fields to be sure insect population levels are high enough to merit control measures. • Discuss plans with beekeepers before spraying. Give them at least two days notice before spraying because the hives may have to be moved. • If hives cannot be adequately protected (moved or covered) before spraying begins, alert the spray applicator as to the exact location of the beehives so they can avoid direct spraying or spray drift contamination of the hives. • Give careful attention to wind direction and velocity in relation to bee yard locations. • Do not spray a crop in flower unless absolutely necessary.

When your goal is fast, even crop emergence, trust Väderstad to help. With innovations like Patented Precision Openers and Wireless iCon™ Control, our Seed Hawk Seeding System places seed and fertilizer with unparalleled accuracy, in all soil conditions. Which gives you the greatest opportunity for higher yield. Evolve your farm. Ask your equipment dealer about the Seed Hawk Seeding System, or visit SeedHawkSeeder.com.

• If it’s necessary to spray a crop in flower, follow insecticide label instructions and do the spraying when there will be minimal bee activity in the fields, preferably during the evening hours. Honeybees leave fields by 8 p.m. during most summer evenings and do not return until 8 a.m. or later. However, warm temperatures can “hold” bees in flowering fields for periods longer than these. • Whenever possible, choose insecticides with low hazard potential to bees. Confirm with the current crop protection guide, product labels, the local agricultural representative or district agriculturist or apiarist. • Do not spray crops of uneven maturity, which are partly in flower or that contain flowering weeds when bees are active.

ROTATION CROP

Canola acres rise in Ontario Some producers in the province saw yields of 70 to 80 bu. per acre BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Canola acres finally rebounded in Ontario this spring after several years of Swede midge struggles. Provincial acres will probably be less than 40,000, but growers are feeling more optimistic about the crop, said Meghan Moran, a canola and edible bean specialist with the Ontario agriculture ministry. Last year, Ontario farmers seeded about 30,000 acres. “They (producers) are typically planting canola in pockets where they haven’t had canola in recent years,” Moran said. “I think there is some new land being cleared, as well.” Canola is grabbing acres in places like Bruce County as producers seek another cash crop for their rotation. “It’s a profitable crop in Ontario. We have some of the highest yields in the country,” Moran said. Average canola yield in the province was 46 bushels per acre last year, and a few producers recorded significantly higher yields.

They (canola and soy) can co-exist in the same rotation. It lengthens the rotation and makes the entire system agronomically sound.

to basically nothing last year. Swede midge can cause headaches in other parts of Ontario, but the pest is under control compared to Temiskaming. Reid said there’s no silver bullet. An insecticide is unlikely to come to market because it might hurt bees. “We’re back to incremental gains through crop management (and) planting dates,” he said. Agriculture Canada scientists are monitoring Swede midge in Western Canada because it has been found in northeastern Saskatchewan and other parts of the Prairies since 2007. However, the species of Swede midge detected in Saskatchewan

seems to emerge later than the one in Ontario, which might explain why it hasn’t become a problem in prairie canola crops. “There seems to be only time in northeastern Saskatchewan for only two generations to occur,” said Lars Andreassen, a research associate with Agriculture Canada. “There’s more to it than different climates. We also have different (Swede midge) genetics in Saskatchewan.” Fewer replications reduce the likelihood of a population explosion during summer and limit the number of eggs laid before winter. robert.arnason@producer.com

Outstanding Young Farmers’ Program NOMINEES

Andrew and Laura Vanderkooi, Legend Dairy Cattle Ltd., Dalmeny, SK ANDREW AND LAURA VANDERKOOI WERE BOTH BORN AND RAISED IN CHILLIWACK, BC. Andrew grew up on the family dairy farm milking 450 cows in a rotary style parlour, while Laura was raised in town with a love for animals and the outdoors. They were married in 2007 and made the decision to work off the family farm shortly after. Andrew started long haul trucking while Laura began selling river boats in town. By 2010, not completely satisfied with their current careers, they came to realize farming was the future they wanted for their family. They found a dairy farm located one mile west of Dalmeny. In April 2011, with the help of Andrew’s parents, they moved their family from BC and began their farming careers. Andrew and Laura welcomed their first son, Ty, into their family in 2010 and their second son, Wyatt, in 2013. They value the opportunity to raise their children in a farming atmosphere and they would like for their boys to continue to develop the work ethic that comes with farming, as well as grow their love for animals and the land. In April 2015, Andrew and Laura officially became the sole owners of their farm. They purchased the dairy from Andrew’s parents and began running as their own entity, Legend Dairy Ltd. Currently, they milk 200 Holstein cows, three times a day. They raise their own young stock, bringing the total number of head on the yard to 430. They utilize 935 owned acres and 500 additional rented acres to grow their own corn, barley, alfalfa, peas and oats, becoming as self-sufficient as possible.

CRAIG REID ONTARIO CANOLA GROWERS ASSOCIATION

“We had a bunch in that 70 to 80 range, and some whole farm averages north of 50 … or 60,” said Craig Reid, president of the Ontario Canola Growers Association. “That kind of (yield) gets people excited. Yield pays the bills.” Soybeans are the dominant oilseed in Ontario, but they can be challenging to grow in northern parts of the province. As well, growers may need another crop in their system. “I like what it (canola) can do (for) a rotation,” said Reid, who farms near Hanover. “They (canola and soy) can co-exist in the same rotation. It lengthens the rotation and makes the entire system agronomically sound.” However, it may take time for the crop to fully recover in Ontario. The province’s farmers once planted 80,000 acres of canola, but it crashed in recent years when Swede midge, a pest that thrives on crucifer crops, became uncontrollable in the Temiskaming region north of Sudbury. Females lay eggs in the meristems, or growing points, of canola plants. The larvae from those eggs feed on the plant and can cause: • tw isted or distor ted young shoots • misshapen buds in bud cluster • abnormal flower development Adult Swede midge emerge from soil pupae in the spring in the Temiskaming area and “overwhelm young canola plants,” the Ontario Canola Growers said in a newsletter. Many canola growers in the region abandoned the crop because Swede midge cut yields in half. Acreage dropped from 30,000

SUSTAINABLE BEEF PRODUCTION

Ranchers give pilot program thumbs up Cow-calf ranchers say the verified sustainable certification could attract customers and increase market share BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

The work to feed sustainably raised beef to the world is just beginning. A pilot project to see if a major burger company such as McDonald’s Corp. could deliver sustainably raised beef is complete, and the results show it can be done. Results and recommendations were presented in Calgary June 2 and have been forwarded to the Canadian Roundtable on Sustainable Beef, which is developing a full fledged program to verify beef production. Canadian cow-calf ranches, feedlots and processors participated in the two-year project, in which operations volunteered to allow private verifiers to assess how they treat their cattle, the environment, workers and the community. High marks went to the ranchers for animal care, community outreach and environmental stewardship, but many fell short on record keeping. More work also needs to be done on the use of antibiotics. Many feedlots are not using the verified beef program, but they have other programs to monitor pharmaceuticals and manage food safety. Feedlots scored well in most areas, and the two packers, Cargill Meat Solutions and JBS Canada, had excellent results. Each operation was scored on a scale of one to five with five being excellent. Most scored a three or better in cattle and environmental care, but many fell short on record keeping and participating in the food safety program, verified beef production and the Beef Information Exchange. Many said they did not see how

value might be returned to them by participating in those programs, but this pilot project did convince some of their worth. Participants received a benchmark report on industry averages as well as where they placed as individuals, said Leanne Saunders of Where Food Comes from, the company that guided the process. Verifiers noted a strong commitment among producers to support the community, protect grasslands and water and focus on low stress handling and genetically improving their cattle. Sustainability factors were divided into five areas: • Natural resources — This shows how they protect soil health, water supply and wildlife and encourage plant biodiversity. • People and community — This indicates how they ensure a safe work place and support the local community. • Animal health and welfare — Producers demonstrated how they provided adequate feed and drinking water and minimized animal stress and pain. • Food — This includes training and registration in the on farm food safety program, Verified Beef Production. • Efficiency and innovation — This could be recycling and incorporating energy efficiency programs. John and Tracy Buckley, who ranch near Cochrane, Alta., agreed to get involved early and found the experience positive. “It was adult show and tell,” John Buckley said in an interview. Two audit teams arrived in March 2015, but the indicators were still in draft form. “ We w e re w o rk i n g o u r w ay through the process together. They

It was a conversation,” he said. Buckley had no concerns about showing off the ranch but admitted some of his documentation was not available and there is room for improvement. “I saw this as a huge opportunity for us to have a conversation with somebody that is coming at it from a totally different perspective.” Working together Buckley liked the collaborative approach rather than a company making announcements about what they expect from farmers. “McDonald’s says we have an issue that we need to address and how do we address it? They came to the industry and said, ‘how do we get here,’ ” he said. The corporation said it decided to test its sustainability ideas in Canada because co-ordinated programs were already in place such as food safety and animal identification. Andrew Brazier of McDonald’s corporate head office came from a mixed farm in Australia where sheep and beef cattle were present, but he understands why Canada was selected to test the concept. The genesis of this came from the

tions as sustainable under the pilot project. Ranches varied in size from 12 to 7,000 head. • Nearly 9,000 head of Canadian cattle were tracked as moving through verified operations. • McDonald’s sourced 65 million pounds of beef last year from Canadian beef farmers to produce its beef patties. global roundtable on sustainable beef. “It has helped define principles and criteria that are applicable for local adaptation, and it doesn’t matter if you are a feedlotter in Canada or a grass-fed operator in Queensland, Australia,” he said. No marketing plan has been developed yet, although many have said a logo or trademark indicating sustainability is needed. “This effort needs to resonate with consumers,” Brazier said. Farmers also need to get something out of it to increase demand for beef, and consumers need assurances about sustainable production practices. The Rainforest Alliance Certified logo uses a little green frog, and Francesca DeBiase of the McDonald’s sustainability division said she would like a similar trademark for the beef sector. Such a logo would attract customers who have changed attitudes about food production and want to know how it’s made. They trust academics, non-governmental organizations and farmers but not necessarily large corporations. “They want to buy products from people who share their values,” she said.

Canadian ranchers were approached early on to see how they could become partners, create a definition for sustainable beef and figure out how to show the world how a verified system might work. “We wanted to find a place where people wanted to work collaboratively,” DeBiase said. “That is really important to us.” Southern Alberta rancher Bob Lowe was skeptical at first but now supports the concept. “McDonald’s is giving Canada a huge opportunity to lead the world and define sustainability globally,” he said. “If folks don’t want our product or want it under certain conditions that can’t be met by harming something else, it is not sustainable and eventually we will lose the industry.” The company wants to build support for the industry rather than tolerate cattle production because people like to eat steak, said Jeffrey Fitzpatrick-Stilwell of McDonald’s. “Transparency is important, and it is really that social license to operate,” he said. The results of this program show good practices can be proved and traced from farm to fork no matter the size of the farm or the processor, said Emily Murray of the Cargill plant at St. Albert, Alta. where McDonald’s beef patties are manufactured. “It really reinforces that sustainability is scalable and it demonstrates the power and ability of the system,” she said. The pilot results included recommendations to the Canadian Round Table on Sustainable Beef, including that it work with as many people as possible and provide continuous feedback. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

B.C. CATTLE ASSOCIATION MEETING

National beef verification program urged Programs are inconsistent across the country with different eligibility requirements and funding, so retailers are slow to sign on BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

PENTICTON, B.C. — More food companies are demanding higher quality assurance standards, which means beef producers need to get on board. “We have two choices: they can define how we do it or we can work with them,” said Andrea Brocklebank, head of the Beef Cattle Research Council, which provides funding and support for the verified beef production program. This program covers on-farm food safety, animal welfare, environmental stewardship and biosecurity. The newest version will be released June 15, she said at the British Columbia Cattlemen’s Association annual meeting, which was held in Penticton May 26-28. The initiative has been around for some time and ideally it should grow into a national standards program. “I think it will become, at some point, as important as beef grading,” said Dennis Laycraft, executive vice-president of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association. He hopes buyers will think of Canadian beef first when more verified supply is offered to the international market. Many producers have been trained, but few have been audited to receive verification. As well, each province funds and delivers the program differently. “VBP has been compartmentalized province by province,” Laycraft said at the B.C. meeting. The program offers standard operating procedures that are documented, and a quality assurance label could eventually be applied. Brocklebank said no end users are asking for it. “We have to have a national program that is consistently delivered across this country before we expect any of our major retailers or end users to sign on,” she said. A long-term business plan and strategy have been developed, but it is up to the provinces to help fund it and train and verify producers. “The incentives from government are going to come and go,” Brocklebank said. “ We k n o w t h e s e p r o g r a m s change, and they are very inconsistent across the provinces.”

The Beef Cattle Research Council will soon release an updated verified beef production program designed to assure consumers of safe, humanely raised, environmentally sustainable food. | FILE PHOTO B.C.’s on-farm food safety fund is open to all commodities. “They have manipulated the requirements for that almost every year since it began in 2005,” said Annette Moore, the province’s coordinator for verified beef. Eligibility requirements for money changed over the years, and funding limits and short deadlines often discouraged participation. Consequently, applications to join the verified beef program fell, she said. More than 1,000 B.C. producers have been trained, but only about 130 were verified. The BCCA received funding from Growing Forward 2, but it ran out. Support is now coming from a three year project offering $30,000 a year supplemented with funds from the Beef Cattle Industry Development Fund. Registered producers pay an

annual registration fee of $100, which contributes to operating costs, said Hallie McDonald of the BCCA. Producers need to be convinced of the value of these programs. They will not receive premiums, but they will need verification labels in the future to show consumers the food was produced ethically. It is possible to link producers and processors together for specific programs as more people are trained and audited. Information can be linked to a verified operation when the electronic ear tag is read at the processing plant. Cattle could then be sorted to fit different programs. Labelled quality assurance programs are common and already cover pork, dairy, seafood, forestry and palm oil. “Labels sell, and unfortunately, science is not necessarily repre-

sented on those labels,” said Brocklebank. Subway wants no antibiotics in its meat supplies, A & W Restaurant has a campaign to offer beef free of antibiotics and added hormone, and the Earls Restaurants chain wants certified humane production from its beef suppliers. It requires the trademark guaranteeing the product was raised humanely.

Earls’ announcement was embroiled in controversy because the branded product came from the United States. A social media maelstrom prompted the company to retract, and it said it would try to source some Canadian beef. However, it is not willing to move away from the label that verifies humane production. Production assurances are growing in importance, but the Earls situation showed consumers are willing to speak up. “Not all consumers are convinced by current labels,” Brocklebank said. “There is a realm of consumers who want production assurances, but Earls demonstrated that they want to be assured animals are being taken care of but they want to support Canadian beef producers.” barbara.duckworth@producer.com

B.C. CATTLE ASSOCIATION MEETING

Livestock group calls for second livestock brand investigator BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

We think it is not unreasonable to have two livestock detectives considering the size of the province. JOHN ANDERSON RANCHER

P E N T I C TO N, B . C . — Mo re Mounties are needed to investigate livestock crime in British Columbia. The B.C. Cattlemen’s Association passed a resolution asking for two investigators to replace retired RCMP Cpl. Frank Overby, who left the job in early 2015. “We think it is not unreasonable to have two livestock detectives

considering the size of the province,” rancher John Anderson of Merritt said at the association’s annual meeting in Penticton May 26-28. The association met with RCMP representatives at the end of last year and a report was forwarded, but nothing has happened, said manager Kevin Boon. The southern RCMP district previously funded the investigator, but the association may have to get a meeting with the province to find

financial support. Bob Miller, head of the brand inspection service Ownership Identification Inc., is dubious anyone will be reinstated. “We just continue to get the runaround,” he said. “It is a sensitive topic. In this industry, we certainly need someone or two in this role.” The BCCA’s livestock protection committee created a video to train members in local detachments about dealing with livestock com-

plaints. More constables are from different backgrounds and do not understand rural issues as well as they might have in the past, said Larry Garrett, who chairs the committee. He also suggested local RCMP members should be invited to attend regional stockmen’s meetings so they meet the farmers and learn what is needed in the field. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

LEVY HIKE

B.C. cattle producers see checkoff increase More money is needed to support research and marketing initiatives and remain competitive, say industry officials BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

PENTICTON, B.C. — The British Columbia Cattlemen’s Association has agreed to increase its checkoff to $5 per head to support national and provincial initiatives. The provincial checkoff will increase to $2.50 per head from $2, while the additional money is for the Canadian Beef Cattle Research, Market Development and Promotion Agency. “British Columbia was the first province to actually establish a checkoff in the 1940s. In 1953 the checkoff was 30 cents a head and calf prices were 23.5 cents (a pound),” BCCA board member Linda Allison, said during the association’s annual meeting held in Penticton May 26-28. The beef industry has big goals, and more money is needed at the national and provincial levels, said David Haywood-Farmer, vicepresident of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association and a B.C. rancher. “The dollar we collected 20 years is just not enough funds for the people that are doing that work for us. We need to step up to the plate and we need to make sure the researchers have got enough dollars so they can leverage those dollars,” he said. “Provincially, we need that extra 50 cents to keep our office at home moving forward.” The national checkoff was implemented in 1999 with a mandatory levy of $1 to support beef research, marketing and promotion. Inflation has reduced the buying power of that dollar to 73 cents, said Jack Hextall, chair of the national agency, which administers the checkoff and directs funds to the Beef Cattle Research Council and the marketing arm, Canada Beef. About $7.6 million in national checkoff funds were collected in 2014-15, but there have been shortfalls to support research and marketing initiatives in recent years. Fewer cattle are being sold, so less money is available. The national checkoff allows Canada to legally collect a $1 per head levy equivalent on imported beef, which brings in about $1 million per year to support domestic marketing programs. The $8 million legacy fund from the government matched dollars to support various projects, but that program has ended. “It is more obvious that government wants to see industry at the table and investing in itself before they want to be there as an investment partner. They feel industry needs to take the lead,” Hextall said. British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Prince Edward Island have supported an increase to the national checkoff. The funding shortfall has had a major impact on research support, said Andrea Brocklebank, head of the beef cattle research council. “In many cases right now, we are not going to be able to fund the same level of research we are already funding if we don’t see that

increase due to higher costs or reduced marketings,” she said. The Cattle Industry Development Council manages the checkoff in B.C. It represents the BCCA, B.C. Association of Cattle Feeders, the B.C. Breeder and Feeder Association and the B.C. Dairy Association. The council is meeting in June to further discuss the change. The vote was nearly unanimous, but it was agreed that grassroots producers need more information about the need for more money. John Anderson of the Nicola Stock Breeders Association and

chair of the BCCA’s research committee said Canada needs more money to remain competitive on the world stage. “We are a trading nation of cattle people,” he said. “We need to export, and it is very important that the work gets done

in two or three different areas. Certainly in the research area, the innovations are going to take us forward in the next 10 or 15 years.” The Beef Cattle Research Council receives 18 cents from every dollar collected, but Anderson said that increase to 50 cents under the proposed change. “We need to be aggressive,” he said. “We have got partners that we are going to be trading against, like Australia, that is already spending a considerable amount of money in marketing their product.” The push for more funding came

Engineer Terry Fonstad has begun work on an environmental monitoring project unlike anything else in Canada. The associate professor’s work is part of the University of Saskatchewan’s Livestock and Forage Centre of Excellence (LFCE), a multi-million-dollar project that will provide new research, teaching and extension facilities to U of S scientists and government researchers as well as livestock and forage producers. The centre will facilitate research across the livestock supply chain including reproduction, forage and pasture management, and environmental health. Fonstad’s work presents a unique opportunity to study the impact of intensive livestock operations on a parcel of crop land east of Saskatoon, Sask., that has had no livestock on it for at least 30 years. “I don’t know anybody that’s had this comprehensive of a site — on a green field site — being able to get this kind of information,” says Fonstad, PhD, P.Eng. His research team will monitor the environmental impact of intensive livestock operations. While cattle have yet to move onto the land, work is well underway. Fonstad says most changes to the site will likely occur within the first five years of the project — during development and through the first two cycles of cattle production. In this time frame, scientists and engineers hope to work on more than a dozen individual research projects, with results combined into best practices and site characterization documents for the industry. Through testing done at the LFCE, the researchers will determine what makes the best site for a feedlot and what modifications would be necessary to build an environmentally safe site. This research includes, but is not limited to, subsurface geology, hydrogeology, pen soils and pen soil management. Researchers will determine which soils are durable and which aren’t; they will also study manure and surface water management for intensive livestock operations. Environmental engineer Crystal Rinas was recently hired to oversee the environmental monitoring project. The U of S graduate, who has master’s and doctorate degrees in engineering, will assist in keeping track of the broad team of researchers who will examine key issues facing the livestock industry. The U of S team has conducted significant test drilling and installed instruments across the site to measure groundwater changes before and during development. Thanks to new instrumentation developments, LFCE researchers will be able to measure information about groundwater that has never been tracked before. Even after the initial group of best-practice studies are complete, Fonstad says he and other researchers will be able to further explore environmental management at the site to assist the livestock industry.

t’s too bad horses aren’t on Facebook. Knowing how many friends a horse has would be useful to understand their risk of infectious diseases such as strangles. Luckily, Kelsey Spence is building a social network for them. The PhD student from the Ontario Veterinary College is using a horse social network to analyze contacts between horse facilities. Determining travel patterns of horses in Ontario has important implications for understanding how infectious diseases might spread within the horse population. The study included horses only from Ontario, but the results may be applicable to horses across Canada. Spence, who worked with OVC epidemiologists Dr. Terri O’Sullivan and Dr. Amy Greer on the project, chose a network-based approach to consider the horse population as a whole rather than focus on individual horses. “At a population level, the risk of infection in each horse depends on another horse, so it becomes this intertwined web of factors that you

can only account for when you do a network study,” she said. There is no master list of horses and horse owners, so the researchers got creative with their recruitment strategy. They found study participants through horse associations, social media, including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and Kijiji. Another successful tactic was to promote the study at horse shows, where the researchers offered participants horse treats that came with study information attached. The study included 570 horses. “Once we got people interested, the challenge was keeping them interested,” said Spence. Instead of a passport, horse owners logged their horse’s travel once a month on an online form during the show season from May to November. These anonymous surveys asked about when, where and why the horse travelled. “Any time they left their barn, we wanted to know,” said Spence. Once she collected the surveys, Spence distilled the complicated interconnections between horse movements into a network. The visual representation of these movements consists of clustered dots and lines. Although analysis of the network is ongoing, there are a few key findings. The most significant is the confirmation that horses establish connections with other horses and facilities when they travel.

Also, there is a trend that highly travelled horses tend to visit the most connected facilities. A horse owner may have only a few horses that compete, but it is these travelling equines that can bring infection back to their farms and spread it among the horses that stay home. Spence’s research is starting with equine influenza, a highly infectious respiratory disease that often affects young horses. The next step is to run computer simulations on the network to see how disease could spread through the horse population. The computer model can estimate whether a disease is likely to cause an outbreak. Researchers can also use the network to simulate other disease outbreaks, including strangles and equine herpes virus 1. “The good thing about models is they can be modified,” Spence said. “Now that we have collected the travel pattern, we can model any disease.” This study is one of a handful that have applied this technique to horses, even through simulations are a popular way to understand the spread of human infections such as measles. Horse organizations across Canada could use the results to develop disease response plans.

CANOLA COUNCIL WELCOMES NEW BOARD MEMBERS

Alberta Agriculture recently made a few small changes to the Business Management Skills Development Program. The terms and conditions have been updated with a slightly different application form. However, the benefits of the agribusiness program remain largely intact. It targets producers, agriprocessing companies and agricultural organizations and helps applicants improve their business management skills. Funding goes to eligible courses or programs focused on business management skills and training to improve marketing productivity, financial management, risk management skills, leadership skills, communications, strategic thinking, board governance, human resources and farm safety. For more information, visit Alberta’s GF 2 website or call the Ag-Info Centre at 310-FARM (3276).

Four members recently joined the Canola Council of Canada’s board of directors for 2016-17: • Aaron Anderson of Richardson International, nominated by the Western Grain Elevator Association • Charlene Bradley of the Saskatchewan Canola Development Commission, nominated by canola grower associations • Jennifer Marchand of Cargill Ltd., nominated by the Canadian Oilseed Processors Association • Jeff Pleskach of Cargill Ltd., nominated by the Western Grain Elevator Association Directors are nominated by organizations representing growers, processors, exporters and life science companies.

EMERGENCY PREPARATION RECOMMENDED Farmers and ranchers are advised to have an emergency preparedness plan in place before an emergency, such as a wildfire, occurs on their farm. Alberta Agriculture’s emergency management services said producers should know the defensive steps to take to minimize the risk and reduce the potential damage to family, property and animals in the event of a wildfire. One step is to make the farmyard fire smart. This can be as simple as cutting the grass and getting rid of underbrush around buildings and fence lines. An ample water supply during dry conditions is another way to manage the risk of fire. Communicating the critical parts of a plan before a fire is just as important: • Turn the power off. • Open the gates to let animals run out into the pasture. • Make sure everyone leaves. Wildfire Mobile apps are available that provide up-to-date information on fire bans and current fires. For more information, visit Alberta Agriculture’s website.

TRANSPORT RULES

CTA to launch review of all transportation regulations The Canadian Transportation Agency says the review of airlines, railways and marine transport is to keep up with consumer expectations BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canada’s transportation industry is getting another review, this one by the government agency that regulates Canada’s railway, airline and marine shipping industries. Scott Streiner, chief executive officer of the Canadian Transportation Agency, announced May 26 that the agency will undertake a full review of the transportation-related rules and regulations that it administers. In a speech to the Economic Club of Canada in Toronto, Streiner said the agency will undertake a series of initiatives aimed at:

• modernizing transportation regulations • improving data collection, engagement and communication with stakeholders • enhancing the agency’s ability to resolve disputes between service providers and their clients, primarily through mediation rather than adjudication For the railway industry, the regulatory review is expected to “prompt some pretty fundamental questions,” Streiner said. For example, can the agency “find a more timey way of updating regulated rail rates” and “should there be changes to rail interswitching rules?”

“These are complex issues that will need broad input,” Streiner said. “To get that, we will actively engage a wide range of stakeholders, including the transportation industry (and) shippers.” The CTA’s regulatory review comes close on the heels of another federal review that was completed late last year. Just a few months ago, a federally appointed review panel led by former parliamentarian David Emerson completed an 18-month review of the Canada Transportation Act, the federal statute that gives the agency its authority to enforce regulations, make rulings and resolve disputes.

The review produced a 286-page report entitled Pathways: Connecting Canada’s Transportation System to the World, which recommended the eventual elimination of the railway revenue caps. The cap limits the amount of revenue railways can generate from moving a tonne of grain to market. The Emerson report recommended that the revenue cap be modernized immediately and eliminated and eliminated within seven years in an effort to ensure a more “commercially grounded” railway transportation system. Ottawa has indicated it will conduct industry-wide consultations before acting on any of the key rec-

ommendations in the report. Meanwhile, the Canada Transportation Agency review is expected to result in a wide variety of modernized regulations that will be drafted before the end of 2017 and implemented in 2018. Streiner said the agency’s review was prompted by changes in the transportation system, including users’ responses to new trends and new business models. “The agency needs to transform its regulations and tools and keep pace with changes in business models, user expectations, and best practices in the regulatory field.” brian.cross@producer.com BIODEGRADABLE PRODUCT

DANIEL AND CHELSEA ERLANDSON, ALONG WITH THEIR TWO CHILDREN, LIVE AND FARM 30KM NORTH OF OUTLOOK, SASKATCHEWAN. They are majority owners in Spring Creek Garden Ltd. Daniel and Chelsea are the third generation owners of Spring Creek. Daniel took over the farm fourteen years ago at the age of sixteen and married Chelsea in 2010, who became an integral member of the farming operation. In 2015, Daniel’s brother Travis and his wife Jackie joined the company as Shareholder partners. Spring Creek Garden grows over fifty different varieties of vegetables and attends eight farmers’ markets weekly, six in Saskatoon and two in Regina. The main goal is to provide a consistent supply of a wide variety of fresh vegetables. The farmers’ markets is where Dan originally began the business. Starting with just a few markets a week and quickly adding as many as he could to maximize profits in the short season. It wasn’t until 2010 when Chelsea began helping that the Regina markets were added and life became even busier. Dan and Chelsea both understand and realize that the market season, mid-June until mid-October, is short in length, but possibilities are endless. Spring Creek Garden grows, packs, and markets 150 acres of vegetables for the wholesale market. The main vegetable crops grown are romaine, celery, broccoli, leaf lettuce, brussels’ sprouts, and sweet corn. These vegetables are sold through Federated CO-OP in Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Manitoba. Spring Creek markets to CO-OP through a newly formed corporation, The Prairie Fresh Food Corporation (PFFC). PFFC is made up of seventeen Saskatchewan vegetable growers that work together to provide a wide array of products. The vision of the PFFC is to provide high quality Saskatchewan produced vegetables as well as focus on growing the vegetable industry in Saskatchewan. Late in 2014, Chelsea was voted in as Secretary/Treasurer of the Saskatchewan Vegetables Growers’ Association. This position enables Chelsea to work with like-minded vegetable producers, as well as knowledgeable specialists who work for the University and the Ministry of Agriculture. The desire is to learn about the industry and to aide in growing the vegetable industry to make further successes.

A new invention may give beer drinkers something to toast. The plastic ring that holds a sixpack of beer together can now be manufactured from wheat and barley using the residue from the brewing process. Saltwater Brewery, a Florida craft beer brand, and We Believers, a small agency in New York, created the invention. They say they are safe for wildlife and marine life to eat, but strong enough to carry the weight and handling of cans. According to a recent report, about half of the 6.3 billion gallons of beer consumed annually in the U.S. is sold in cans, which is packaged in six-packs and held together with plastic rings. The plastic often ends up in the ocean, where it can strangle wildlife. It’s common for fish to ingest the plastic and then starve as their digestive systems become blocked. It’s estimated that one million sea birds and 100,000 sea mammals and sea turtles around the world become trapped in plastic or ingest it and die. The edible and biodegradable six-pack rings are manufactured u s i n g 3 D p r i n t e r- g e n e r a t e d molds. Saltwater Brewery plans to produce 400,000 edible six-pack rings per month, which will handle its current monthly production. It estimates that the $10 price for it six-pack will increase 10 to 15 cents. Chris Gove, president of Saltwater Brewery, said he wants to inspire the big players in the beer industry to get on board and implement this technology, which could lower the cost of production and be competitive with the current market solution.

National trust puts wooden elevators on endangered list Many elevators were destroyed in the 1990s BY WILLIAM DEKAY

ENDANGERED PLACES

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

An historical endangered places list put together by the National Trust for Canada has placed wooden grain elevators at the top. Ray Ambrosi, a sustainability research scientist in Regina said the 6,000 wooden grain elevators that once dotted the prairie landscape now number less than 1,000. “They should have been protected more properly a decade ago,” he said. Every year, the trust publishes its top 10 list as part of its mission to raise awareness of the value that historic places bring to the quality of life, local identity and cultural vitality. “Whenever people think of Saskatchewan, they think of the grain elevator,” said Ambrosi. “They were a link to the farming past.” Besides being landmarks, however, Ambrosi said the towering icons symbolized something deeper that people have now forgotten. “That is the co-operative history of the province,” he said.

There’s really a symbolic link between people and the landscape expressed through those elevators. RAY AMBROSI SUSTAINABILITY RESEARCH SCIENTIST

“The reason those elevators went up was mainly because they were owned by the (Saskatchewan Wheat) Pool, and the Pool was the largest co-operative in the entire world. Those buildings were symbols of people working together. “There’s really a symbolic link between people and the landscape expressed through those elevators.” Ambrosi said the mass destruction of wooden elevators, primarily during the 1990s, was shortsighted. “No other place in the world had giant wooden structures for storing grain in. They were fascinating.” He adds that some communities and individuals have preserved them, but they are quite expensive to maintain and not enough effort was put into conserving them. Only 23 have received heritage designation. The trust said it bases its choices on the significance of the site, the urgency of the threat, the potential for a solution, and the presence of active community support for preservation of the site or location. Also making this year’s top 10 list are Saskatchewan’s prairie grasslands, notably the community pastures, once run by the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration. The PFRA pastures comprise 1.8 million acres, which the trust reports is some of the last remnants of Canada’s native grasslands. It is

The Top 10 Endangered Places List is compiled from nominations received as well as from news items the National Trust has been following. The 2016 list includes: • Canada’s Wooden Grain Elevators — Rural icons vanishing from the landscape. • Vancouver’s Chinatown, Vancouver, B.C. — Development wave crushes culturally unique neighbourhood. • Former Royal Alberta Museum, Edmonton — Modernist gem under threat. • Spaca Moskalyk Ukrainian Catholic Church, Lamont County, Alta. — Marker of Ukrainian heritage could be lost. • Saskatchewan’s Prairie Grasslands, — A storied landscape of natural and cultural value at risk. • Nottawasaga Lighthouse, Collingwood, Ont. — Imperial Tower crumbling into the bay. • Gibson Isolation Hospital, Belleville, Ont. — Tearing down a piece of heritage for parking spaces. • Saint-Vincent-de-Paul Penitentiary National Historic Site, Laval, Que. — Historic federal penitentiary wasting away. • St. Stephen Post Office National Historic Site, St. Stephen, N.B. — A National Historic Site being ruined by neglect. • Harbour Grace Court House National Historic Site, Harbour Grace, N.L. — Handsome colonial treasure deserves a fair trial. an ecosystem home to about 31 species at risk, many indigenous archaeological sites and homesteader heritage. Trevor Herriot of Public PasturesPublic Interest agrees with the choice, but said it goes beyond cattle grazing. “We also need to be looking at the legacy of these lands and trying to maintain them for their conservation values and their human heritage values,” said Herriot, the environmental group’s co-chair, which was formed to prevent the sale of federally owned community pastures. Manitoba has announced their lands will remain in government control, whereas the Saskatchewan government said their lands would be sold to private owners. “The reason they put them on the list I think is that the (Saskatchewan) provincial government has really not provided for any way to conserve the heritage and conservation values on those pastures.” Herriot would like to see the federal and Saskatchewan governments work together to address conservation management and the human heritage values of the lands. william.dekay@producer.com

50 YEARS AGO

Lake named but Diefenbaker sticks FROM THE ARCHIVES

BRUCE DYCK, COPY EDITOR The Western Producer takes a weekly look at some of the stories that made headlines in issues of the paper from 75, 50, 25 and 10 years ago.

75 YEARS AGO: JUNE 12, 1941 The Saskatchewan Co-operative Wholesale Society reported record sales of $2.23 million for 1940, up

from $1.5 million the previous year. Trading profit increased to $74,089.61 from $62,795.39. The greatest increase in business was the sale of petroleum products, which was up 100 percent. Walter Haskins, a prominent British Columbia farm leader, was appointed secretary-treasurer of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture. The federation also planned to open a national office in Ottawa, where Haskins would work full time. Haskins replaced George Coote, who was a member of the Alberta Wheat Pool board and a director of the Bank of Canada.

50 YEARS AGO: JUNE 9, 1966 Saskatchewan natural resources

minister John Cuelenaere announced that the 430 sq. kilometre reservoir that had formed behind the new dam on the South Saskatchewan River would officially be called Lake Saskatchewan. The name didn’t stick, however, and the reservoir is known today as Lake Diefenbaker. Federal agriculture minister J.J. Greene expressed his preference for the Canadian Wheat Board to be part of the agriculture department rather than the finance department. The board had once been under agriculture but had moved to trade and commerce and then to finance when Mitchell Sharp changed portfolios. Greene recognized that the finance minister knew more about the wheat board than he did but felt it made more sense for all things agriculture to be under the same roof.

25 YEARS AGO: JUNE 13, 1991 Note the new dust control equipment that had recently been installed on Saskatchewan Wheat Pool’s grain terminal in Vancouver. The photo, which was taken from the deck of a loading grain ship, was taken in the summer of 1978. | FILE PHOTO

Vancouver grain terminals locked out their workers in a dispute over hours of work. The move threw a monkey wrench into the wheat board’s heavy export program.

10 YEARS AGO: JUNE 8, 2006

The CFA was not happy to learn that some of the more than $120,000 that the federal Progressive Conservative government gave the Consumers’ Association of Canada so that it could take part in a food policy review was used to conduct an antisupply management study.

The arrest of 17 Toronto men charged with terrorism-related offences was expected to expedite proposed new regulations governing the sale of ammonium nitrate fertilizer. “I would think it will have a little higher profile than a week ago,” said Chris Watson, chief

inspector of explosives with Natural Resources Canada. Lightning struck a herd of cattle near Carnduff, Sask., killing 13 animals, including a champion Tarentaise from Canadian Western Agribition. bruce.dyck@producer.com

There is an as yet unexplored human cost to porcine epidemic diarrhea virus. Dr. Egan Brockhoff, an Alberta veterinarian who has seen PED do its deadly work in Asian and American hog barns, has also seen the emotional toll it takes on hog producers who have it in their barns. “It’s a heartbreaking disease. This isn’t just going to be devastating to the animals, its devastating for the people,” Brockhoff said in an interview April 2 after speaking to Lethbridge area hog producers. “I think without question it is extremely devastating to them. You see people just quitting, in the big barns. Some people give it three or four days and then they just say, ‘I can’t watch this,’ because they know they’d have to watch (piglets die) for the next three or four weeks. So there’s a human cost to this disease that we haven’t talked a lot about.” PED virus is fatal to young piglets and producers can expect near total mortality of newborns. Older pigs stand a better chance of recovery. It is spread by fecal-oral contact, and even a small amount of virus can grow and cause an outbreak, with symptoms of extreme diarrhea and vomiting in pigs. Forty-seven Ontario barns were confirmed with PED as of April 4. Single cases in Manitoba, Quebec and Prince Edward Island were controlled before the virus could spread. The most recent Ontario cases were confirmed in finisher barns, and Brockhoff said PED can be easily missed in older animals because diarrhea can be attributed to several causes. “It’s often very subtle in mature pigs. A lot of people can miss the disease in a grow-finish population,” he said.

Speedier handlings won’t cut carryout Faster rail | New federal orders will have little effect on stocks BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The federal government’s grain delivery mandate won’t have much impact on Canada’s burdensome carryout, say analysts. Agriculture Canada is forecasting 22.8 million tonnes of ending stocks for grains and oilseeds in 2013-14, which is not likely to be adjusted much. “Right now we’re still leaning towards leaving our carryout, not making significant changes to it,” said Chris Beckman, an oilseed analyst with Agriculture Canada.

Improving lives, part by part Airguard Industries designs farm implement products to solve production problems BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

ABBOTSFORD, B.C. — A small warehouse here is supplying the world with new and improved parts for air seeders. Airguard Industries owned by Brian and Kim Cruson has doubled business since they started three years ago. They deal with farmers from Norway to Australia selling specially designed parts Brian assembles in a corner of the shop. Brian, whose grandfather started Dutch Industries in Regina, has been in the farm implement business all his life. He is an engineer and inventor who is as comfortable with technology as he is talking directly with farmers about problems they encounter in their fields. He sees a problem and intuitively starts to consider solutions. “The air systems on air drills are fairly inaccurate. A lot of people have issues with plugging and uneven placement. That is the concept of this whole business is to focus on that particular problem,” he said.

His seed brakes distribute seeds more consistently and he wants scientific data to back up his claims. “We have been trying to partner with a research facility that can actually give us some statistical data on that and show us the difference in placement,” he said. His other product is the award winning and patented Airguard blockage prevention system. It attaches to the air intake of the air drill. It cools the hydraulic oil while increasing the temperature and lowering the moisture level of the air going through system to improve product flow. Br ian and Kim are the only employees, handling marketing, parts assembly, shipping, receiving and trouble shooting via Facetime, Twitter or phone calls. “We advertise a lot on Twitter. That is probably our biggest thing, which is surprising. There are a lot of farmers on Twitter,” he said. Trade shows also promote the product but the added travel has them looking to hire more people. The first half of the year is busy with orders going out the door

every day. Invention time is during the slow periods. “I have a lot of new ideas for our next seed brakes for next year on our next model,” Brian said. He starts with a prototype and uses a 3-D printer to make and test the initial design. Seed brake components are made in China where they are fabricated by hand using high grade plastic or stainless steel. Components for the de-humidifier are made in Canada. “I know a lot of people have issues with manufacturing things in China but the parts we get made there, we couldn’t even source in North America because no one here had the expertise to do it and they didn’t want to because it is too complicated,” he said. Brian and Kim came from the Prairies, but Abbotsford is their home. Much of what they do is rather foreign to Fraser Valley farmers, where dairies, berries and other horticulture crops are common. However, as more farmers plant corn in the region, they also need help. “When you talk to farmers they

have the same issues. It might be different agriculture, but even with our de-humidifier we found customers here. Potato farmers use a floater to drop fertilizer on the ground. They have the same problems with plugging in the lines so we have actually retrofitted that same unit onto a fertilizer floater,” he said. They work with a network of dealers around the world. Bourgault has started offering their seed brakes as a factory option. The Crusons are also interested in international agriculture development. Kim spent her teenage years in Africa where most farmers are not ready for the kind of technology they offer, but they are amenable to finding other ways to help in the future. “One of the things that is important for both of us is giving back to the agriculture community and if we can do that into developing countries then so much the better. The business isn’t just for us, but to make a difference in other people’s lives,” she said. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

Bayer secures loan for Monsanto buy June 2 (Reuters) — Bayer AG has secured a loan facility worth US$66.94 billion to fund its $62 bill i o n o f f e r f o r Mo n s a nt o C o. , according to a German business newspaper. Bayer AG secured the bridge loan from Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse, HSBC, Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan, sources said. Bayer made an unsolicited takeover offer for Monsanto in May.

EXPANSION

Dairy processor Saputo eyes Brazil for acquisitions (Reuters) — Saputo Inc., one of Canada’s largest dairy processors, has an eye on Brazil for possible acquisitions, and could make deals worth as much as $3.5 billion, its chief executive officer said. The struggling global dair y industry is fragmented, potentially yielding opportunities, Chief Executive Officer Lino Saputo Jr. said. The company would like to buy cheese-making plants in Brazil, instead of continuing to move cheese into the market from Argentina, he said. “You have hundreds and hundreds of dairy players” in Brazil, Saputo said in an interview. “If we found an interesting platform on the cheese side in Brazil that would allow us to be a consolidator, that’s essentially what we’re looking for.”

He declined to say if Saputo was in serious negotiations with any company. Brazil is one of the world’s biggest milk producers and has a large number of domestic consumers. After Brazil, Saputo is also interested in deals in the United States, Australia and New Zealand, he said. Last year, Saputo made two small acquisitions, Woolwich Dairy in North America and, through its Australian subsidiary Warrnambool Cheese and Butter Factory, the Everyday Cheese Business. Montreal-based Saputo’s shares have gained about 18 percent in 2016. The stock is trading above historical averages as investors anticipate further acquisitions, said Brittany Weissman, an analyst at Edward

Jones. Even so, strong competition is pushing acquisition prices higher and deals may be hard to achieve, she said. Saputo, whose products include Dairyland Milk and Armstrong Cheese, reported lower quarterly earnings on June 2, citing weaker pricing around the world for dairy ingredients. In the fourth quarter ended on March 31, net income dropped to $141.2 million, or 36 cents a share, from $157.4 million, or 39 cents a share, a year earlier. Excluding one-time items, earnings were 41 cents a share, just above analysts’ average estimate of 40 Canadian cents, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. Revenue climbed nine percent to $2.7 billion, in line with expectations.

Saputo’s products, which include the Dairyland and Armstrong brands, saw first quarter revenue climb nine percent to $2.7 billion, but profits fell 10 percent. | WILLIAM DEKAY PHOTO

FOCUS ON BOTTOM LINE

Factors to consider in reaching reasonable land rental rate MANAGING THE FARM

Low interest rates It would cost about $80 per acre to finance a land purchase if land is trading at $2,000 per acre and a loan can be obtained at a rate of four percent. As a result, farmers who would be willing to pay that purchase price and the related interest on the debt should be willing to pay as much as $80 per acre cash rent and be financially no worse off than if they bought the land. On the other hand, owning the land allows farmers to control access and they then don’t have to fear the rental contract renewal dates. First right to purchase Farmers might be willing to pay

Efficiency and convenience Let’s say the a producer farms three quarters of a section and the ability to rent the last piece of land completes the section. He might be willing to pay more for the increased productivity and efficiency of farming the entire section as one big field.

If you properly manage your involvement in the farm income programs that are available, you might also find that the risks of paying higher rents are lower

than you thought. Stuart Person, CPA, CA, is a business adviser with MNP LLP. Contact him at 855-667-3301 or stuart.person@mnp.ca

rain farmers in many parts of the Prairies have seen lucrative harvests over the past five years. This has improved cash flow, balance sheet strength and overall optimism in the industry. It has also pushed land rents to levels we have not previously seen. This seems to have upset a lot of producers, and in some cases, rightfully so. Many farmers tend to have short-term memories and forget about the not-so-good years. However, the producers who are paying higher rents are not all going broke, and many of them are enjoying great success. Here are a few ways to look at land rent and explain why certain producers are paying more, to the point where others are left scratching their heads:

more to rent land on the assumption that they will receive the first right to buy it in the future. This was often assumed in the past because it was just the right thing for a landlord to do. However, the world has changed and it should not be assumed that you will get the first right to buy the land. I recommend discussing this with the landlord up front and putting something on paper.

Caution There are all sorts of reasons to pay a premium for certain land, but be careful because you might be setting a precedent. Let’s say you currently rent 75 percent of the land you farm at $60 per acre. If you bid on a new piece of land at $75 per acre, you need to consider what that does to the overall operation. Let’s face it, all of us who grew up in small towns on the Prairies know that your offer to pay $75 will eventually end up discussed in the coffee shop and from there all over town. So you just gave your existing landlords an opportunity to ask for more the next time the renewal comes up. If you rent a large portion of your land, this can increase your cost of production significantly. Your main concern about renting land should focus on the cost and how it affects your bottom line. Run the numbers with your agriculture business adviser, which should add some clarity to the decision. You might find that paying $75 an acre is devastating to your opera-
