Resolution thought doubtful for dockage dispute BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A former federal agriculture minister believes the China canola dockage issue wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be resolved before the Sept. 1 deadline. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I doubt it,â&#x20AC;? said Gerry Ritz, who served as agriculture minister for eight years under former Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper. The U.S. Department of Agriculture appears to agree with him, according to a recent report on Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oilseed markets.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Canola) imports face uncertainty as the Chinese regulatory authorities are likely to enforce stricter inspection rules in September 2016,â&#x20AC;? stated the USDA. Ritz contends the Liberal government is taking the wrong approach to finding a solution to a problem that threatens $2 billion in annual trade with China. He said Ottawa is focused on finding a scientific rather than a political resolution to the impasse. Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine is implementing a

new policy Sept. 1 that will require canola shipments to contain less than one percent dockage instead of the current 2.5 percent limit. The Canola Council of Canada says the policy threatens four million tonnes of annual canola seed exports to China, which is 40 percent of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total export program. Chinese officials say the policy is being implemented to minimize the chance of blackleg disease entering China and attacking the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rapeseed crops.

Excess rain has decimated about one-quarter of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lentil crop, but the jury is still out on how much quality damage there is on what remains, say industry officials. Greg Simpson, president of Simpson Seeds, one of Saskatchewanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest lentil processors, said yields are highly variable. He was combining a field of Eston-type lentils on his farm near Moose Jaw last week that averaged 35 bushels per acre. His cousin, who farms 20 kilometres west of him, was hailed out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His (yield) monitor on his machine was zero,â&#x20AC;? said Simpson. An area between Moose Jaw and Buffalo Pound is also a write-off due to hail. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Inside that area the lentil crops are history. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be zero to five (bushels per acre),â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Basically itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a clean-up operation.â&#x20AC;? Simpson has a niece who farms near Kyle, Sask., an area that has received more than 500 millimetres of rain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really concerned for the guys at Kyle, Kindersley and that whole area that has been hit heavily,â&#x20AC;? he said. Simpson was originally forecasting 3.82 million tonnes of Canadian lentil production, but his new estimate is for 2.87 million tonnes, a 25 percent reduction. That is in line with what industry analysts are forecasting. Larry Weber, an analyst with Weber Commodities, came up with an estimate of 2.95 million tonnes in

EXCESS RAIN

Farmers make the best of a bad situation What were supposed to be fields of golden canola turned into a sea of blue — so the Keith family got out their surfboards BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

SOVEREIGN, Sask. — Members of the Keith family were praying for rain last year. Now they’re “surfing” on drowned out canola fields and praying for the rain to stop. Brothers Cody and Justin and their cousin, Grady, of Sovereign have been making waves in fields over the past few weeks after more than 200 millimetres of rain turned bumper crops into recreational land. “We were kind of depressed because we went from bumper crops to crop insurance on our lentils and we were, ‘well, we may as well have some fun with this,’ ” said Cody, who recently spent an afternoon surfing on a neighbour’s quarter section of canola. “My philosophy with the farming thing is if you can’t do anything about it, there’s no point worrying about it” The 20-something farmers have been able to put their situation into perspective. “I’ve never been to the point where I couldn’t pay my bills yet, so I can’t say I’ve had the stress that some people have had,” said Cody. Added Grady: “We’re still growing (as farmers), so we’re hoping for the best, but we get a little bit more bummed out than the older guys.” The irony of the situation is not lost as they reflect on last year’s growing conditions compared to now. Justin was included in a front page story in The Western Producer last June about the concern over the drought that persisted across much of the West. “What a difference this year. We’re praying for it to stop,” said Justin. They’re not alone.

For the Keiths, the excess water has allowed them to get out their surf boards and have some fun. On Aug. 16, the three farmers got into position at the headland of a field. Justin drove the truck forward until the slack went out of the line, while Cody firmly hung on. Grady was photographing the event from an open window. A yelled “go” from Cody, a spin of tires on gravel, a clean and jerk and Cody was quickly plowing water.

Startled ducks squawked in the distance, their wings flapping hard in the other direction. Cody slalomed back and forth over drowned out canola for almost a kilometre.

To their surprise, a two-minute Facebook video that they posted Aug. 10 quickly went viral. Since then, they have been flooded with more than 600,000 national and international views, most of them positive. “Just posted it and instantly everybody was sharing it,” said Cody. “My most watched clip before that was probably 200.” A Facebook posting from Marcus Dyck summed up the response: “Those guys down there (Saskatchewan) are always the most creative at having fun,” he said. Added Rita Fletcher: “A perfect example of ‘when life gives you lemons.…’ ”

Too much moisture has decimated many lentil crops in the Keiths’ region this summer, but many canola fields have flourished and time will soon tell if there will be a whopper of a harvest. The Keiths planted one-third malting barley, one-third canola and one-third lentils. While they’re not expecting much of a crop with lentils and barley, they’ll still harvest it. “We’re trying to get malt, but it will likely be feed this year. We’ll see,” Cody said. “We’re going to combine the lentils and clean up the mess.” william.dekay@producer.com

CANOLA PROCESSING

Richardson reduces unloading times, increases crush capacity BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Planned expansion and upgrades to Richardson’s canola processing plant in Lethbridge came as welcome news for southern Alberta farmers. The company announced $120 million worth of upgrades to the plant Aug. 17. The upgrades, which are now underway, are designed to improve seed receiving and increase crush capacity. The plant now processes 450,000 tonnes of canola a year, taking seed from processing and oil refining through to the packaging of oil and margarine. It expects to crush more than 700,000 tonnes a year after the project is completed. “Increasing the speed of the receiving plant is a top priority for us to better serve our customers, providing them with the ability to deliver their seed quickly and efficiently,” Darwin Sobkow, Richardson executive vice-president of

agribusiness and processing operations, said in a news release. It comes as welcome news to Kevin Serfas, a regional director with the Alberta Canola Producers Commission who farms thousands of acres in southern Alberta. Serfas said he stopped delivering to Richardson in recent years because the wait times for unloading seed could be long. “Any upgrades on the receiving side, they could do no wrong,” Serfas said upon hearing news of pending improvements to the plant’s delivery system. “You’d show up for your delivery window and you’d sit for four hours, even though you had a slotted time,” he said. “Any upgrade on that side of the operation would be welcome.” Quicker unloading is indeed one goal of the current project, said Tracy Shelton, director of corporate communications at Richardson. Construction of a seed receiving elevator is already under way at

Upgrades at Richardson’s canola plant are expected to increase processing capacity to 2,000 tonnes per day. | BARB GLEN PHOTO the plant. “That’s one of the things that our customers look for, is a quick turn around,” said Shelton. “We’ve all heard about lineups, especially at peak times. That’s one of our top priorities is to ensure that our customers can deliver and get in and out.” According to the Richardson news release, the expanded plant

will be able to receive 800 tonnes of canola per hour. Improvements will be done in time for harvest next year with the rest of the changes slated to be done by 2018. The plant installed new processing equipment last year that essentially doubled its refining capacity and expects to process more than 2,000 tonnes of canola per day once the upgrades announced last week

are complete. Shelton said the Richardson canola crushing plant in Yorkton, Sask., which opened in 2010, set a standard to be met in Lethbridge. “We’re really trying to bring the Lethbridge plant up in terms of increased efficiency and upgrades to it,” she said. “We’re definitely invested in the community of Lethbridge and we want to modernize the facility and increase our capacity to crush canola in Lethbridge as we do in Yorkton. “It’s a matter of bringing the facility in line with what we’ve created at Yorkton and being able to maximize our efficiency at both plants.” Alberta farmers planted 5.8 million acres of canola this year, according to Statistics Canada. Lethbridge processing plants draw canola from across the southern part of the province and southern Saskatchewan. barb.glen@producer.com

JURY OUT » CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 the August issue of Saskatchewan Pulse Grow ers’ Pulse Market Report. Chuck Penner, an analyst with LeftField Commodity Research, had a best case scenario of 3.8 million tonnes and a worst case scenario of 2.6 million tonnes in the same publication. Saskatchewan Agriculture is forecasting an average lentil yield of 1,300 pounds per acre, which is 11 percent below the five-year average. That would produce a 3.44 million tonne crop, assuming there were no lost acres. Statistics Canada was scheduled to release its latest production estimates Aug. 23, which is after The Western Producer’s publication deadline. Simpson is estimating 2.1 million tonnes of red lentil production, which would be more than adequate to meet the expected demand. “We’re not short,” he said. Indian demand for both red and green lentils is expected to tail off in 2016-17 because of vastly improved monsoon rains and more pulse acres. Where there might be some tightness is with large green lentils. Simpson believes about 500,000 tonnes of that crop will be harvested. “We’re going to need them all,” he said. There is debate about how much quality damage was inflicted by persistent summer rains. John Duvenaud, publisher of Wild Oats Grain Market Advisory, expects most of the crop to grade Extra 3, and there will also be a lot of No. 3. The standard export contract is for No. 2 quality lentils. “I don’t think there’s enough No. 2 lentils going to be combined in Western Canada to satisfy all the contracts that have been written,” he said. As well, a lot of contracts were signed last winter because of high prices and rapidly dwindling global supplies of the commodity. Many in the trade believe 40 percent of the anticipated 2016 crop was forward sold, which is much higher than normal. Duvenaud’s advice to growers who harvest a No. 2 or better lentil is to shop it around because there should be plenty of demand. “You’ve got a valuable commodity if you’ve got a No. 2 and can deliver it,” he said. He doesn’t believe growers will have much problem marketing their extra 3 quality lentils, but selling No. 3 lentils may require plenty of work and patience. Simpson’s gut feel is that there will be a higher percentage of No. 3 and Extra 3 lentils than No. 2 or better. If it is heavily skewed toward the No. 3s and Extra 3s, exporters would have to ask overseas buyers to renegotiate contracts or face paying penalties. The good news for processors is that the contracts were negotiated at high prices, and prices have fallen since then. The opposite scenario would have been a “blood bath,” he said. Many grower contracts contain Act of God clauses that protect them against things like hail damage, but there are still lots of deferred delivery contracts where they may have to make up the difference between the quality they deliver and what they committed to deliver. sean.pratt@producer.com

U.K. baker joins Canadian pulse research project BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The largest baker in the United Kingdom is interested in incorporating Canadian pulses into its bread. Warburtons is working with the Canadian International Grains Institute (CIGI) on a three-year research project to create healthier baked goods by using flours made out of peas, lentils, beans and chickpeas. The British company contributed $680,000 to the $2.9 million project. The bulk of the funding came from the $1.8 million provided by Saskatchewan Pulse Growers. JoAnne Buth, chief executive officer of CIGI, said the organization was approached by Warburtons 18 months ago. The company was searching for ways to increase the protein and fibre content of its bread while getting rid of preservatives and

additives. CIGI has a long history of working with the British company. It conducts variety testing and field plot analysis for Warburtons on a fee-for-service basis. “Our baking team is trained in using Warburtons’ methods,” said Buth. One of the goals of the project is to develop a database summarizing the compositional, functional and flavour properties of various pulses and to explore the effects of pre- and post-milling treatments, particle size and storage on those pulses. Researchers will also experiment with fermentation processes as a way to decrease additives and eliminate some of the undesired flavours associated with pulse crops. Doughs from the pre-ferment trials will be used to develop pulse-based bakery products that meet specific nutrition targets.

Researchers will be working with yellow peas, red and green lentils, chickpeas and navy beans. “Warburtons has made the commitment that the pulse flours they will use will be coming from Canada,” she said. Researchers will be creating bread, rolls, sandwich thins, tortillas and crumpets from the pulse flours. “It’s about taking Canadian pulses and then adding the value here,” said Buth. A unique aspect of the project is that all of the research will be shared with breeders, seed companies, growers, processors and other food industry companies. “All of that information will be public,” she said. Adam Dyck, Canadian program manager for Warburtons, said the company is proud to be partnering with CIGI on the project. “This new research underlines the increasing popularity of new

and innovative bakery products amongst consumers and is testament to Warburtons’ commitment to future growth through diversification and innovation,” he said in a press release. Carl Potts, executive director of Saskatchewan Pulse Growers, said the project will increase the demand for pulse flours and generate better economic returns for growers. “Inclusion of pulse ingredients into baked foods helps address consumer interest in choosing nutritional ingredients in the foods they eat,” he said in the press release. “This project also addresses market diversification, which is an important focus for SPG, and Saskatchewan pulse growers are well suited to meet the demand for improved nutrition in the food industry.” sean.pratt@producer.com

Growers throughout northwestern Saskatchewan got an early start to seeding this year and crops came up quickly because soil temperatures were warmer than usual. “More years than not, we’re cutting canola hoping that it won’t freeze in the next day or two,” McNabb said. “This year, we’re going to be cutting a lot of our canola this weekend so that is a week to 10 days earlier than normal for us.” “We’re as advanced here as just about anywhere. We’re hoping for a good solid crop that’s earlier than normal, as long as the weather co-operates.”

Ritz said it has nothing to do with blackleg and everything to do with economics and China supporting its rapeseed growers. “This is simply to force their cr ushers in China to use the domestic (rapeseed) supply first. That’s all it is,” he said. Ritz said crushers prefer to use Canadian canola because it gives them twice as much oil and a better q u a l i t y m e a l t ha n rap e s e e d . Restricting canola imports would force crushers to use more Chinese rapeseed. The government also has a vested interest in reducing canola imports because it is sitting on a huge stockpile of rapeseed oil that it is eager to sell. The USDA estimates China sold 2.28 million tonnes of its rapeseed oil reserves through the end of June. Ritz said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government is mismanaging the issue by sending bureaucrats to China to discuss blackleg concerns when that is a red herring. “This is not a scientific problem by any stretch. This is a political problem,” he said. “It’s a political solution that the politicians of today don’t seem to want to tackle.” He believes the federal agriculture and trade ministers should be meeting with their Chinese counterparts face-to-face rather than sending their bureaucrats overseas. “You have to be there and you have to look them right in the eyeball and say, ‘folks, this is not good. This does not look good on the world stage. You’re an economic power and you’re nickel and diming here,’ ” said Ritz. Agriculture Minister Lawrence MacAulay was unavailable to respond directly to Ritz’s criticisms. A spokesperson from his office sent an email saying MacAulay and trade minister Chrystia Freeland met in Ottawa with the Chinese ambassador on the issue and have raised it with their counterparts in China on more than one occasion. Trudeau is travelling to China in advance of the G20 meeting in Hangzhou, China, to strengthen ties with Canada’s second largest single-country trading partner. The official visit is Aug. 30 to Sept. 6. The G20 is Sept. 4-5. The Prime Minister’s Office was asked if the canola dockage issue will be raised during his visit but did not respond. The Canola Council of Canada says it would be nearly impossible to meet China’s new dockage requirements. Ritz disagrees. He said it is “absolutely” possible, but it would be time-consuming and costly. “At the end of the day it sends a chill through the industry right at har vest, which tends to play around with pricing,” he said. Ritz also believes the China incident highlights the need to further diversify canola seed sales rather than relying on one customer to buy 40 percent of the crop. “It’s time to start looking at other markets,” he said.

Northern growers hope for early harvest Early start to seeding, ample seasonal rainfall pushes harvest well ahead of schedule BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Harvest is underway in northern Saskatchewan and if early results are any indication, it could be a good one. So far, peas are coming off in good condition with average to above average yields, wheat yields are expected be better than average and canola fields look good. As usual, however, the success of this year’s harvest will hinge on the weather. “In general, things look pretty good in this area,” said Howard Hobson, a machine operator and retired farmer from Cutknife, Sask. “The crops are better than average.” Last week, Hobson was swathing seed wheat for Les Laing, who also farms in the Cutknife area, east of North Battleford, Sask. According to Hobson, harvest operations are just getting underway in the Cutknife area. Peas started coming off about a week ago and early cereals are close behind. “Some pulse crops took a bit of a hit this year due to excess moisture,” Hobson said. “Some are doing OK but the ones that are on lower ground, where they got more rain than usual, they’re not looking quite so good.” In general, producers in northcentral and northwestern Saskatchewan got off to an early start this spring and received ample rainfall throughout the growing season. The result, in most cases, is a potentially early harvest with reduced risk of frost damage. In the Prince Albert-Birch Hills area, combines were busy last week taking off peas and many growers were swathing spring wheat and barley. With few exceptions, crops

CROP FEATURES ARE A WEEKLY SERIES RUNNING THROUGHOUT THE GROWING SEASON.

across a large part of the province’s northern grainbelt — from Prince Albert to the Alberta border — look to be in good to excellent condition with above average yield potential. Along the provincial border, south of Lloydminster, crops are also advancing quickly and growers are hoping for an early harvest with potentially big yields and few quality issues. “It’s looking very good,” said Mark Holmedal, who was harvesting peas last week for 4g Wild Farms Ltd., near Rivercourse, Alta. “This is our first (pea) field of the year but they’re running really good and the quality looks pretty good too.” According to Holmedal, rainfall was not excessive in the Rivercourse area but it came at the right time. By all accounts, yield potential south and east of Lloydminster is expected to be at least average and likely above average.

A combining crew at 4g Wild Farms Ltd. from Rivercourse, Alta., takes a short break for coffee and a snack. Harvest operations across much of northwestern Saskatchewan and northeastern Alberta are a week to 10 days ahead of normal. “So far, it’s going well,” said Holmedal. “As long as the rain stays away, it could be a good one.” At Spiritwood, Sask., west of Prince Albert, agronomist Curtis McNabb with Cavalier Agrow said it’s shaping up to be a “good, solid harvest” with average or slightly better than average yields. “The talk is that the cereal crops a r e p r e t t y g o o d t h i s y e a r,” McNabb said. “Canola? It’s always so hard to say until you actually get into it.” According to McNabb, one of the most notable things abut the 2016 harvest could be its timing. In general, crops in the Spiritwood area are at least a week ahead of normal.

Oil demand boosts canola price Despite forecasts for a big crop, prices have risen due to a shortage of palm oil BY SEAN PRATT

China may not shut out all canola BY ED WHITE

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

WINNIPEG BUREAU

Canola prices have climbed in recent weeks despite prospects of a big crop on the way. The oilseed has support from soybean oil, which in turn is being propped up by rising palm oil prices. In recent weeks, there has been a dramatic rebound in soy oil prices that had been on a steady downward slide since spring. Canola prices are closely linked to soy oil prices due to the high oil content of canola seed. David Dzisiak, commercial leader of grains and oils for Dow AgroSciences Canada, said the soy oil rally stems from disappointing 2016 palm oil production. “The output is falling off and that’s driving a rally in veg oil crops,” he said. Palm oil prices have been rising due to the lingering effects of El Nino, which brought drought to Indonesia and Malaysia during the second half of 2015 and the beginning of 2016. An article published in Indonesia Investments said Indonesia’s crude palm oil production is expected to be 31.5 million tonnes in 2016, down from earlier expectations of 36 million tonnes. The article also states that palm oil demand has been strong due to the resurgence in economic activity in key export markets like China, India, the European Union and the United States, as well as at home in Indonesia. E xpor ts have been surging recently. Shipments out of Malaysia during the first half of August were up 31 percent compared to the first half of July. Benchmark palm oil futures prices as of mid-August were up 21 percent compared to a month ago. Dzisiak said the rising palm oil prices are offsetting the bearish news of a record U.S. soybean crop on the way. “There is a surprising amount of bullishness in the market considering the size of some of these crops we’re looking at,” he said. Canola crush margins have risen after collapsing in the spring, due

to better oil prices and a long period of depressed seed prices. ICE Futures Canada reports margins at $130 above the November contract compared to $58 a year ago. “It has been really rallying the last month or two,” said Dzisiak. Arlan Suderman, chief commodities economist for INTL

FCStone, said soy oil has been underpriced for too long considering the global soybean stocksto-use ratio is under seven percent. “That’s the tightest that we’ve been in modern day history.” Suder man said the spread between soy meal and soy oil prices had gotten out of whack. “We kind of had this wake-up call — wow, soy oil is underpriced. And so we had this big reaction,” he said. In addition to support from palm oil, there was strength from rising crude oil prices because soybean oil is used in biodiesel. Once the momentum shifted, there was a lot of covering of short positions in a thinly traded market, which fuelled the bull run for the commodity.

You’ve worked hard and invested in producing good crop... but grain in the bin does not equal money in the bank.

Global soy oil supplies are snug and it is an inelastic commodity, so prices could remain firm for a while. “It’s difficult to ration demand with higher prices in soy oil,” said Suderman. Meal values have trended down at the same time that oil values have been rising, but he thinks that will be short-lived. Global meat production is climbing and soy meal is a key component of livestock rations. He estimates the world is going to require an extra 13 million tonnes of soybeans in 2017. “That’s just for the pork and poultry. That doesn’t include the other components and uses of soybeans,” he said. sean.pratt@producer.com

Farmers probably don’t have to be too worried about China shutting the door to Canadian canola, say some analysts. Not only is China unlikely to completely close the door, but there is also good demand around the world for the crop, the Chinese still want it and carryout supplies should be low again. “I’m fairly optimistic about canola right now,” said Neil Townsend, an analyst at FarmLink Marketing. “I think there are a positives in the supply and demand balance.” China has been threatening to impose a one percent dockage limit on Canadian canola. Canadian and Chinese officials are talking about it, and the issue is expected to be discussed during Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s visit to the giant country, which is Canada’s best canola customer. Some grain companies can probably meet the one percent specifications, but other exporters are likely to be leery of the dangers of rejected cargoes and could back away from making sales to China. As well, the tight standard raises the worry that China might use the situation to deliberately block canola imports in order to have a domestic market impact. Rich Nelson of Allendale, Inc. said few in the market are concerned about the Chinese situation. “It’s not something which will really deter how much they are willing to buy,” said Nelson. Chinese importers want the oilseed crop, which means they have an incentive to find ways to work around any new restrictions put in place, Nelson said. The government will probably try to find regulatory controls that it could use if needed, but it probably won’t act too severely. “We all understand … that China in the past two years has taken a very proactive and destructive approach to its grain import policy, and this is yet another example of that,” said Nelson.

YIELD, PRICE PREDICTIONS

Pea production could topple previous record Saskatchewan Agriculture estimates a 4.8 million tonne crop BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Lentils are suffering, but Canada’s pea crop is in great shape, according to analysts. Saskatchewan Agriculture is forecasting an average yield of 40 bushels per acre, which would be 23 percent above the 10-year average. An even better crop is expected one province over in Alberta, where the government is predicting an average yield of 44 bu. per acre. Statistics Canada was set to release its first crop production estimate Aug. 23, which was past The Western Producer’s production deadline. If the provincial government estimates prove accurate, that would result in a record 4.8 million tonnes of peas and 21 percent higher than the previous record, according to Stat Publishing. Greg Kostal, an analyst with Kostal Ag Consulting, has no problem accepting that number. “The trade has certainly talked about a 4.5 to five million (tonne) all pea number as a possibility,” he said. “The anecdotal news flowing from the country from the pea harvest is supportive of a good outcome, for sure.”

Chuck Penner, an analyst with LeftField Commodity Research, is also comfortable with that number. He is predicting 4.4 million tonnes, but some of his contacts in the grain industry say it will be closer to 4.6 million tonnes. The pending large crop has already pushed yellow pea prices down to the $6.50 to $7.50 per bu. range. At one point last winter, new crop prices touched $10 per bu. Both analysts think there could be further downward pressure in 2016-17. The Ukrainian Agribusiness Club is forecasting 752,000 tonnes of pea production in that country, almost double last year ’s har vest of 390,000 tonnes. Russia also has a big crop on the way. Competition down under Early estimates suggest Australia is poised to harvest 1.65 million tonnes of chickpeas, which compete with Canadian yellow peas in the Indian market. The previous record was slightly more than one million tonnes. “Their chickpea crop will be ginormous,” said Penner. The only good news for Canadian growers is that France is expected to harvest 459,000 tonnes of peas, down 31 percent from the previous

» CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE The Chinese government can use many tools to restrict imports, whether it is import tariffs, altered quality requirements or the issuing of licenses, but its processors need much of the crop they receive. “It will restrict things, but it won’t stop them (if tough standards are imposed,)” said Nelson. Townsend agreed. “ U ltimately they want the canola because they use it,” he said. Others want to use it too, which is why many analysts aren’t too concerned about the China situation. There is good overseas demand, and Canada’s recently expanded crushers want to feed the strengthening world vegetable oil market. Some buyers were probably getting complacent about meeting their 2016-17 needs before the

constant rains re duced the expected size of the coming crop, but Townsend thinks that is changing. “They’re going to be a little bit more inclined to take ownership than they were 10 or 15 days ago, when they thought that they didn’t have to worry and could pick and choose when to buy.” He expects the 2016-17 carryout to be “fairly tight,” so a reduction in Chinese buying won’t be a

year because of heavy rains. It all adds up to large global supplies. “On yellow peas, we could be really comfortable and could even border on heavy,” said Penner. He expects prices to drop a little lower because of harvest pressure, recover and then drop again later in the year, especially if India has a good rabi crop. India’s kharif (summer) pulse plantings are up 35 percent over last year because of improved monsoon rains. Good soil moisture could also lead to more pea and chickpea acres when the rabi crop goes in the ground this fall. Kostal agreed with Penner’s price outlook for yellow peas. “I would expect further weakness,” he said. The analysts are more bullish about green peas. North American green pea acres were down more than the trade was anticipating. “We could be a little bit snug actually when we look at greens,” said Penner. Kostal believes green peas will maintain and even expand their price premium over yellow peas. “Greens never had the oomph like yellows did on the way up, so on the way down they’re going to be laggards as well,” he said. Neither analyst has heard of any

disaster if it occurs. It will buy at least three million tonnes, so any reductions would occur above that level. Analyst Greg Kostal said China’s demand might shift around, but the impact on canola prices and movement would be muted in the world vegoil market. “Whatever the official outcome, if it’s different than the status quo, trade will adjust,” said Kostal. “It might change who may choose to participate, create a minor basis variance (which might already be built into prices), but canola is a global and fluid commodity.” The bottom line from the three analysts is that canola should still have lots of buyers at home and around the world, and any impact on prices is likely to be moderate and indirect rather than dramatic and worth hedging against.

Last week, Saskatchewan Agriculture issued yield forecasts. It expects yields of spring wheat, durum, barley, flax and peas in the province will be better than last year. Canola yields are expected to be similar but oats, lentils and chickpeas will be worse. The spring wheat yield forecast ranges from a low of 41 bushels an acre in the southwest to 47 in the southeast. Canola ranges from 34 bu. an acre in the southwest to 41 bu. in the westcentral region. Lentils range from 950 pounds per acre in the west-central region to 1,400 in the southwest.

MARKET DEMAND

Quality spring wheat will reap premium Poor weather may see winter wheat end up as feed and millers scrambling to find quality spring wheat BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

It’s a nice time to be farming in the spring wheat zone. Not only does that type of wheat demand its usual few cents spread to hard and soft winter wheats, but it’s building up a nice premium as low quality wheat floods the world. “It’s all pushed (the world wheat market) towards quality,” Mike Krueger of the Money Farm in Fargo, North Dakota, said about the strength of spring wheat prices versus hard red winter and soft red winter. As well, analysts say farmers should watch to see if quality and protein premiums become more pronounced as they start harvest. This year could see a rewarding premium market if quality and protein are in short supply. “You’re going to have interest in ownership (of high quality and high protein wheat) because they’re going to be worried about what the depth of the supply is,” said analyst Neil Townsend of FarmLink Marketing.

“For run-of-the-mill, generic (winter) wheat, there isn’t much upside.” Indeed, every week seems to bring more news of crop challenges around the world increasing the supplies of low quality wheat that undercuts its values. German and Polish wheat crops have suffered bad weather, reducing their supplies of quality wheat and pushing some into feed and lower quality uses. The U.S. winter wheat crops were low protein and a challenge for millers. Canada has low ending stocks of 2015-16 wheat, and its current crop has been hurt by wet weather after earlier looking terrific. Millers are reaching for quality spring wheat and backing away from winter wheat, which creates a healthy premium between the winters and spring. New crop spring wheat futures in Minneapolis are now more than 70 cents per bushel over winter wheat contracts. That spread is less likely to decline than grow, said Rich Nel-

son of Allendale, Inc. “I think we’ll see this gain hold and continue (to grow) in the next few weeks,” said Nelson. It makes spring wheat a generally more valuable crop to have this year, which should be good for those who have it in their bins this fall. “It’s very clear the wheat market is a two-tier market,” said Townsend. “The bottom tier … has humongous supply.” A significant amount of U.S. winter wheat will end up in the feed market, and it is being priced as feed, analysts said. Elevator spreads are only beginning to be seen because most western Canadian and North Dakota crops are just beginning to be harvested, but there are signs that high protein and good quality wheat is beginning to draw higher prices. Townsend said he’s heard of elevator prices in specific locations that have spiked 75 cents per bushel for very high protein wheat, up to $6.75 per bu. He’s also heard that each tenth of

PAYING FOR PROTEIN The spread between Minneapolis hard red spring wheat futures and Chicago soft wheat is widening even as the values for wheat generally have fallen. Minneapolis December wheat had a premium of about 50 cents per bushel over Chicago in mid-June, widenening to 82.5 cents by the end of last week. The spread is widening because spring wheat has higher protein and the supply of good protein wheat is tightening as several global production regions have crop quality problems.

a percentage of protein above 13 percent has been bringing more than three cents per bushel extra, which is more than the usual premium. Kostal said the premium situa-

BEEF INDUSTRY CONFERENCE

Stronger U.S. economy, 80 cent loonie good for cattle sector BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

The Canadian dollar is always a major consideration in the beef business. “As the dollar started to sink, so did the cattle markets,” Brian Perillat, senior market analyst for Canfax, said at the Canadian Beef Industry conference held in Calgary Aug. 9-11. The movement of currency rates can wipe out profits or result in a windfall. The loonie has averaged 80 cents since the early 1980s and now sits at around 77 cents. “An 80 cent dollar is not a bad thing,” Perillat said. However, an 87 cent dollar would wipe out profits for cow-calf producers. A five cent swing is a 25 cent

DOUGLAS PORTER BANK OF MONTREAL ECONOMIST

per pound change in calf prices because Canadian prices are based off the U.S. market. Douglas Porter, chief economist with the Bank of Montreal, said the Canadian dollar tumbled to a 13 year low because the Bank of Canada decided not to increase interest

rates while the United States raised its rate. He told the beef industry conference that the dollar will remain around the same level well into next year. He said a lower dollar helps support tourism, resource producers and exporters, but the average consumer loses because it pushes up the price of imported goods. He predicted that the U.S. will raise rates after the presidential election in November and maybe twice again next year. “Even by the end of next year, these are still incredibly low interest rates that we are dealing with across North America,” he said. The 10 year government bond yield fell below one percent in the first part of August. It means Otta-

wa can borrow for one percent a year for 10 years, which is good for government but not savers. Many countries, such as Japan and those in Europe, are experiencing negative interest rates, and economic growth has been sluggish. India has a growth rate of 7.9 percent and China is at 6.7 percent, but Canada is behind at 1.1 percent and the U.S. is 2.5 percent. “Most of the industrialized economies are somewhere around one to two percent growth. That is a bit disappointing. Almost ever y industrialized economy feels like it can’t get into second gear,” he said. “We are not in recession outside of Brazil and Russia, but we are struggling to find that second gear and we think that continues in 2017.”

The price of oil plays a role in the overall weakness of the Canadian economy and currency. “For every $10 move in oil prices, you get a three cent move in the Canadian dollar in the same direction,” Porter said. For example, $50 oil would get the dollar back to 80 cents and it would achieve parity at $100 oil. It is now stuck around the low $40s but could hit $50 next year. He put the normal price of oil at around $55 per barrel. A stronger U.S. economy and a weaker loonie bodes well for Canadian exports. “This is one area of real opportunity and potential in the years ahead,” he said. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

Weekly exports to Aug. 6 rose to 3,911 head. Exports for the year are up 40 percent. Market-ready supply will be adequate in coming weeks, and weight discounts are anticipated. Feedlots will be pressured to sell to avoid weight build-ups. Packer margins are profitable, and both major plants have reportedly added a Saturday kill. Steer and heifer carcass weights fell two pounds, but weights usually start to rise at this time of year. Prices could again test annual lows this week.

CRAIG’S VIEW

ORGANIC REGULATIONS

Organic feed imports glitch in production guarantee

he organics industry is under constant scrutiny to ensure its methods of production are true to its roots and that regulations and practices are followed so consumers know they are getting the environmental ethos they desire when they pay extra at the supermarket. The Organic Federation of Canada notes that the National Standard of Canada for Organic Agriculture, which regulates farming, livestock and processing practices used to produce organics, has rules that must be “comparable to the standards of trading partners who sell organic products on the international market.” Comparison tables exist for the European Union, the United States and Japan. However, feed for organically raised livestock is pouring into Canada and the United States from other countries. So we should pay attention when a feed supplier such as Tom Manley expresses exasperation over the lack of non-genetically modified feed for organics producers. “(I’m) flabbergasted by the way that not enough Canadian farmers are taking up the (organic) opportunity,” said Manley, who supplies feed and agronomic services to organic farmers in Central and Eastern Canada and the U.S. “I don’t get it. The grains are worth twice the price. What the hell is wrong, you guys? Why aren’t you producing?” The decision to transition to organics from conventional farming goes beyond profit. The transition time, about three years, and the workload — more tillage —are part of the reason people don’t leap into organics. So change in the industry can be slow. While there is no way to track how much organic feed is being imported from overseas to Canada, dairy producers in the U.S. import significant amounts of organic feed grains from countries such as Romania and Turkey. Organic feed corn is imported from Croatia, Bulgaria and the Balkans. India is another source of organic feed. In Canada, dairy producers import less organic feed,

but hog, chicken and egg producers are thought to rely on imports. Some countries producing organic feed for North American farmers have significant levels of corruption, as noted in Transparency International’s Corruption Perception Index. If confidence in government oversight is dubious, how can we have confidence that feed certified organic in those countries is authentic? It’s a blind eye thing. The problem is evident in the audit process. In Canada, it’s up to manufacturers to certify feed organic, but it is not possible to verify organic practices in countries where corruption is manifest. So there is a disconnect between the organic movement and its philosophical cousin — the local food movement — and those who are importing organics from overseas, both with the authenticity of organic feed and the fact that far-away imports are environmental anathema. Said Warren Taylor, an Ohio creamery operator: “It’s completely antithetical to the founding principles of the organic industry that we’ve allowed the supply chains to go this way…. There is no justifying this.” Strong words. If the organics industry did not accept feed from countries where it is not possible to authenticate organic practices, the supply in North America would indeed dwindle, driving up the price of feed here, perhaps high enough that more farmers would make the transition into producing organic feed. The increased costs could well be passed on to consumers, who are devout in their purchasing patterns, with the affirmation that the entire organic chain is genuine. Such an initiative might yield a long-term solution to feed shortages and ensure the real thing.

WATER INFRASTRUCTURE

If any one of those happens to fail catastrophically, we are not going to get the water in Alberta for the summer, so the irrigators will be out of water. There’ll be no water for the cattle. There’ll be no water for fish in the rivers, and just as importantly or more, there’s no water for the towns of Milk River and Coutts, and they have nowhere to get it from. There’s a real danger right there, right now.” JOHN ROSS

PRISON FARMS STUDY

Movement to restore prison farms gathers momentum CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

or the past two months, the Justin Trudeau government — under the watchful eye of Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale — have been conducting an online feasibility study on whether to reopen the two Kingston area prison farms: Collins Bay (home of the Frontenac farm) and Joyceville. More than 6,000 submissions have been put forward, including about 50 forms from inmates at Kingston prisons who were given documents to fill out by hand because they lacked online access. Ninety-four percent of applicants felt an agriculture-based rehabili-

tation program was an effective way to help inmates transition back into society. Kingstonians are still tenaciously involved in the fight to reopen the prison farms. A group of residents have held a vigil for the farms every Monday since they were shut down. It was standing room only at the lone public meeting. Many in the room, including the region’s Conservative candidate in last fall’s election, were in “Save our Prison Farms” T-shirts. More than a few held a picture of one of the 22 prison cows who have been temporarily relocated to dairy farms in the area until they can be resold to the farm. Organizers were clearly taken aback by the turnout, with independent agriculture consultant Myles Frost scrambling to ensure everyone who wanted to speak had a chance. Not one person who went to the microphone was opposed to reopening the prison farms. More than a few said they felt insulted by the previous Conserva-

tive government’s argument that the farms were closed because they did not provide meaningful skills or lead to employment in agriculture. The farms were closed by the former federal Conservative government. “The reason given for the closure — that agriculture did not provide any meaningful skills — this was an insult to staff, but even a greater insult to every Canadian farmer,” Ron Amey, who worked at the Frontenac farm as a herdsman and then farm manager, told Goodale. “The intent of the prison farm was never to turn inmates into farmers,” he said. Still, reopening the farms comes with challenges. Since the closure some of the barns and processing facilities have been turned into storage and laundry facilities. Others, like the greenhouses at Joyceville, are in disrepair, while some barns will need updating to meet industry requirements for enhanced cages or for cage free systems for laying hens. Some of the

land has also been rented out to farmers on yearly leases. Any money for upgrades, Goodale said, will likely need to wait for the Liberal’s next budget. Then there’s the employment question. While there is no question that skills learned on a farm — like empathy, patience, punctuality and ingenuity — can be applied to jobs outside agriculture, Canadian employers also need to accept that some of those who graduate from these programs will want to work in agriculture upon their release. Less than two percent of Canadian inmates were working in agriculture when the farms were closed, a statistic that was repeatedly raised by the Conservatives as one reason for closing the farm. It’s a delicate balance, one the industry and federal officials would be wise to start discussing now. Agriculture needs workers, inmates need viable employment upon release, but farms, unlike a construction site or warehouse, are also people’s homes, often in remote

areas. That raises sensitivities, including concerns about personal and community safety. Former inmate Pat Kincaid, who refers to the Frontenac dairy farm as “the miracle farm”, knows how hard it can be to find work in agriculture after being released from prison. Farmers, he told Goodale, have told him he’s too old or not strong enough to work in agriculture. Attempts to work as a veterinary assistant, where folks told him the courses would be a “waste of money” were also unsuccessful because he was unlikely to get work. He now cleans toilets for a living, which Kincaid told Goodale he prefers over his old life of crime. “I wouldn’t trade a day of my current life for a week of my old life,” he said, his voice breaking with emotion. “Maybe, if you bring the farms back, people like me will stand a chance of rehabilitation.” Kelsey Johnson is a reporter with iPolitics, www.ipolitics.ca.

U.S. praised for Feed the Future program

Tour opens eyes to weed war

BY THE FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

eaders of two United Nations agencies fighting hunger have applauded new legislation in the United States aimed at strengthening global food assistance programs. The UN World Food Program (WFP) and the UN Food and Agric u l t u re O r g a n i z a t i o n ( FA O ) praised U.S. President Barack Obama for his July 20 signing of the Global Food Security Act (GFSA), after the bill was passed by the U.S. Congress on July 6 with broad support. “The United States is helping to put an even stronger emphasis on how food security and economic development are intertwined, while stressing the central role of small-scale family farmers in the fight against hunger and poverty,” said FAO Director-General José Graziano da Silva. “This law will have a dramatic impact on the lives of people throughout world, showing once again why the United States is a leader in promoting food security and helping those who struggle to feed their families so they can start to build their own future,” says WFP Executive Director Ertharin Cousin. Strongly promoted by Obama, the GFSA supports initiatives that focus on developing agriculture, assisting small-scale food producers and improving nutrition, especially for women and children worldwide. It also seeks to improve the provision of water, sanitation and hygiene to poor communities and build their resilience to withstand shocks, such as those stemming

Among other things, the GFSA writes into law the Feed the Future program, the U.S. government’s global hunger initiative, ensuring it will continue after the Obama presidency ends in January. Feed the Future helps countries struggling to provide their citizens with adequate access to food. It emphasizes the needs of smallholder farmers, particularly women, and has supported WFP’s work in Uganda and other places. The GFSA also authorizes for the first time USAID’s International

Disaster Assistance and Emergency Food Security Program. This means future White House administrations and future Congresses could more easily make cash assistance available to people experiencing hunger unexpectedly, due to causes such as natural disasters or war. As well, the law aims to improve co-ordination among various U.S. agencies providing overseas aid, to ensure the wisest possible spending practices. The U.S. is the largest bilateral donor to both FAO and WFP.

The bill was passed with support from members of both the Democratic and Republican parties, during a time of great division in U.S. politics. It was sponsored by U.S. representatives Chris Smith and Betty McCollum and by U.S. senators Johnny Isakson and Bob Casey. The Food and Agriculture Organization is a United Nations agency dedicated to eliminating hunger. The World Food Program is a UN agency fighting hunger worldwide.

STATISTICS CANADA ESTIMATES

Accuracy of crop quality stats big question mark HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

e know prairie crop yields will be above average, but at this point we can only guess at the quality. My guess is that there will be significant quality issues, particularly in some crops and in some regions. Statistics Canada was set to release its first 2016 production estimate Aug. 23. For all the complaints about its accuracy, the industry still pays attention. Statistics Canada numbers tend to be the benchmark from which industry analysts explain why they think the actual number is either higher or lower. Statistics Canada has two big problems.

One is that farmers are hostile to the process, often providing begrudging co-operation or giving skewed estimates they think will sway the market. A public relations campaign is needed to explain why accurate crop estimates are useful to the entire industry and especially to farmers. The other problem is the time lag between when farmers are surveyed and when the information is tabulated and released. A lot can and usually does happen over those several weeks. In this modern age of communication this problem could be addressed, but Statistics Canada remains oblivious. Some observers suggest that resources should be deployed to do professional yield determinations at the field level to improve accuracy, but it’s more likely that fancy satellite technology will be increasingly integrated into the estimating process. The importance of accurate pro-

duction estimates was vividly demonstrated in 2013 when farmers, grain companies and the railways were all surprised by the record volume harvested. The big wild card this year is crop quality, and unfortunately there are few methods to accurately estimate what will end up in the bin. The amazingly wet summer in many regions raised early suspicions that fusarium could be a big concern in wheat and durum. Disease has been rampant in lentils this year, but how badly has quality been affected? Field observations are an indicator, but not very definitive. It takes time for samples to be submitted and graded, and the results change as harvest advances. Poor weather can dramatically aggravate grading issues. As farmers, we sometimes harbour the hope that quality can be upgraded after harvest. Most of the diseased seed is smaller, so perhaps it can be cleaned out.

If sieves don’t work, maybe a gravity table will help. Or perhaps, it can all be colour sorted. That technology continues to improve. A new piece of technology called the BioMill can actually sort grain by chemical composition. Fusarium-affected kernels can be removed from a sample even when the disease isn’t visually evident. However, only a small number of these machines are in place. If quality challenges do end up being significant this year, there will be a scramble to attempt upgrades with all the cleaning and sorting resources available. Unfor tunately, volume can quickly overwhelm the upgrading capacity that is available. While it’s often impossible to make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear, it would be useful to know the size and scope of the problem in advance.

t was a definite sign, when fieldman Oscar Anderson from Alberta’s Municipal District of Ranchland got off the bus at the Canada–U.S. border and began pulling weeds. And that was even before he presented his passport to U.S. customs officials. Anderson muttered something derogatory about scentless chamomile, one of many invasive weeds that plague Alberta and Montana, and other places. Yes, it was a sign that travelling with a bunch of weed experts would provide a different perspective on the beautiful vistas available in both Wild Rose Country and Big Sky Country. Two buses full of weed folks, water folks and agriculture folks — some of them wearing all three hats — drove out on the Transboundary Water, Weeds and Stewardship Tour Aug. 8-10. Once across the 49th parallel, the buses rolled past waves and drifts and fields of purplish-pink plants in full bloom. Pretty, you think? Not so, groaned the weed experts. The tour had arrived at the opportune time to see spotted knapweed in full bloom. And knapweed is one of the nasties on the list of invasive plants in the Crown of the Continent, affecting parts of British Columbia, Alberta and Montana. Why were these weed folks so glum? A single spotted knapweed plant can produce up to 40,000 seeds. Those seeds are easily spread and can remain viable in the soil for eight or more years. The plant has a deep taproot that resists pulling, it loves to grow in disturbed areas and it exudes a chemical in the soil that inhibits growth of the neighbouring plants. Chemical controls are few and not easily applied in the mountains, ditches, gullies and gulches where the weed thrives. Biological controls are an option but they lack the instant gratification that would be welcome. One begins to see why a field of purplish-pink plants perturbs people. Tour participants heard about efforts to control knapweed and other invasives. The views from the bus windows showed the task is a daunting one, albeit one that every expert interviewed said was possible to tackle and control, if not eradicate. The late Wayne Dyer said the only difference between a flower and a weed is judgment. Weed experts might agree. Their verdict on knapweed is: guilty.

EXPORTS TO CHINA

Solution to regulatory barriers needed for ag trade Canola dockage dispute with China could be one of many regulatory obstacles that need to be addressed, say experts BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Canada obviously needs an immediate answer for the canola dockage dispute with China, but a larger, long-term quandary might be more important for Canadian farmers: how will Canada prevent future trade battles with China over agri-food products? For instance, China could potentially introduce new rules for growth promotants in Canadian beef or glyphosate residues in Canadian cereal grains. If the two countries lack an agreement to resolve such conflicts, it’s likely that regulatory barriers will continue to pop up. “These types of disputes over agriculture products are frequent,” said Eva Busza, vice-president of research and programs with the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada. “If you look at the WTO (World Trade Organization), since 1995 they’ve had over 100 disputes that have gone to their dispute settlement body (on agri-food products).” On Sept. 1, China plans to implement new rules for dockage in imports of Canadian canola. The regulation will lower the dockage allowance to one percent, down from the previous standard of 2.5 percent. Chinese officials say the move is necessary to prevent the spread of blackleg, a soil-borne disease, in China’s rapeseed crop. If unresolved, the regulations could dramatically slow canola exports to China, worth more than $2 billion in 2015. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will travel to China in late August and early September and is expected to discuss the canola quarrel with Chinese politicians. Busza said the canola dockage dispute isn’t surprising because China had a similar battle with Australia over canola and blackleg. China banned canola from Australia for three years from 2009-12. Canadian farmers urgently need a solution for the canola issue, but Busza said there are several ways for Canada to proceed long-term with China on agricultural trade: • devise a special agreement between the two countries on regulatory co-operation • rely on a third party, such as the WTO, to settle disputes • work on a Canada-China free trade agreement Of those choices, Busza said a free trade deal is probably the best option, but a potential agreement needs language that deals with regulatory barriers to trade. “If Canada decides to move forward on a FTA with China, they should definitely be looking at whether they can get some regulatory mechanisms to address these types of issues,” she said. “Whether that can be negotiated or not is another question.” Stuart Smyth, a University of Saskatchewan agricultural economist, isn’t convinced Canada could negotiate such language into a free trade agreement with China. Smyth and his colleagues read through the text of the Trans Pacific Partnership agreement, the CETA deal between Canada and Europe

For Canada, we’ve only recently included chapters in our free trade agreements that deal with regulatory co-operation. EVA BUSZA ASIA PACIFIC FOUNDATION OF CANADA

and the draft text of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) between America and the European Union. They found that details on how to resolve regulatory barriers to agri-

food trade were absent in all three documents. “Even if we did an agreement with China, based on what we’re seeing in some of these recent agreements … I don’t have a lot of confidence that an issue like this (canola dockage) would be resolved (by a free trade deal).” Busza disagreed with Smyth’s assessment. She said CETA does contain specific language around regulatory obstacles. “For Canada, we’ve only recently included chapters in our free trade agreements that deal with regulatory co-operation,” she said. “CETA is the first one that pro-

vides that framework for us.” In an email, Smyth agreed that CETA includes “provisions for regulatory issues,” but the agreement doesn’t offer solutions for highly contentious issues such as the low level presence of genetically modified crops in non-GM shipments. “In the biotech field, there is no ability to resolve the disputes,” Smyth said. “They will simply be discussed and discussed for years with no mechanism for resolution.” Smyth has written a review of the free trade agreements, which will likely be published this fall.

TRANSPORTATION REVIEW

Federal ministers talk grain transportation Ministers reassure farmers they are listening to farmers’ concerns The railways need to know they are under special scrutiny because of how that crop season went three years ago. RALPH GOODALE

A bumper crop is the first thing in order for farmers to make money. Then it’s important (to ensure) the crop is moved for shipment. Then it’s our responsibility to make sure that’s done.

LAWRENCE MACAULAY AGRICULTURE MINISTER

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

REGINA — Grain transportation was the talk of the town when two federal cabinet ministers met with 19 agricultural stakeholders in Regina. Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale, who is from Regina, and Agriculture Minister Lawrence MacAulay were in the city last week

to discuss agricultural issues, and transportation was at the top of the list. MacAulay said farmers have been heard “loud and clear” about the grain transportation issue, and his government takes responsibility for ensuring the grain moves to market well. “A bumper crop is the first thing in order for farmers to make money.

crop is moved for shipment. Then it’s our responsibility to make sure that’s done,” he said between discussions Aug. 18. “Every effort that can and could be taken will be taken to ensure that the grain is moved more efficiently than it was (in 2013-14).” He said the railways have been in touch with him and the transportation minister, and both Canadian National Railway and Canadian Pacific Railway have said they are ready to move the larger-than-fiveyear average crop that is expected to be harvested in Western Canada during the next month. “The (Emerson) transportation review is in place and it will be looked at” with respect to how the railways will be observed by the government, he added. Goodale said former cabinet minister David Emerson’s report put considerable emphasis on the need for transparency in the system, which is now lacking. “People need to know the facts and have the data upon which to make sound decisions,” he said. Saskatchewan’s agricultural minister Lyle Stewart was one of the stakeholders involved in the discussions. “Increased data (distribution) and transparency is very important,” said Stewart, adding that transportation agencies also need greater authority over the railways. He said most the 19 presentations were “on that same page.” Both he and MacAulay felt federal transportation parliamentary secretary Kate Young was fully engaged in the grain industry roundtable. Goodale said it’s more important than ever for governments to listen to farmers because they are less aggressively represented in Ottawa and in the country’s boardrooms “than they were in the past.” The loss of the Canadian Wheat Board and the farmer-owned prairie grain-handling co-operatives over the past 15 years has reduced the lobbying power of producers. “The railways need to know they are under special scrutiny because of how that crop season went three years ago,” Goodale said. “They and the grain companies did not perform up to the standard that farmers would expect, and they need to understand that everyone will be looking very closely in this crop year.” Stewart said key discussion subjects included interswitching, which permits one rail company to use another’s tracks for short distances, expansion and line preservation, the revenue cap on grain transportation (review and maintaining) and the closures of producer car loading sites. Emerson plans to make a response to his report in the coming weeks. michael.raine@producer.com

William King of Milk River, Alta., walks along one of the siphons that carry water over the St. Mary River into the Milk. One of the two siphons was built in 1912-15 and the other in 1925-26. Both are considered a critical part of water infrastructure affecting both Canadian and American water users. | BARB GLEN PHOTOS MILK RIVER WATERSHED

Water infrastructure well past its prime Milk River’s aging infrastructure that delivers water for cattle, irrigators and communities is is desperate need of repair BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

MILK RIVER, Alta. — The phrase can’t help but give pause to water users of the Milk River and St. Mary River on both sides of the CanadaU.S. border. That phrase is “fix upon fail.” It means that when the infrastructure system fails in its task of ensuring stable water flow into the Milk River as it meanders from the United States into Canada and back into the U.S. again, it will be fixed. But the funding and direction needed to upgrade or replace aging structures built in the early 1900s have not been provided by U.S. state and federal governments.

JOHN ROSS MILK RIVER WATERSHED COUNCIL CHAIR

“The infrastructure has needed upgrading for probably at least 20 or 30 years and so far it hasn’t been upgraded,” said John Ross, chair of the Milk River Watershed Council.

“They’re just patching it. As far as Canada is concerned, there’s three facilities down there — Sherburne dam, the actual diversion of the water out of the St. Mary’s into the Milk River and then the inverted siphons — that are way past their life span.” Under the terms of an international agreement, Canada receives 75 percent of the St. Mary River flow during the irrigation season and 25 percent of the Milk River flow in that same season, up to a maximum of 666 cubic feet per second in the Milk. However, that level of flow in the Milk River is dependent upon diversion of water from the St. Mary into a canal system and through a set of siphons. “They were built around, say, 1910 … and they’re basically falling apart,” said Ross, who saw the structures in early August while on a transboundary tour of weed and water management. “If any one of those happens to fail catastrophically, we are not going to get the water in Alberta for the summer, so the irrigators will be out of water. There’ll be no water for the cattle. There’ll be no water for fish in the rivers, and just as importantly or more, there’s no water for the towns of Milk River and Coutts. And they have nowhere to get it from. There’s a real danger right there, right now.” The infrastructure is all in Montana, some of it on the Blackfeet

The St. Mary Diversion Dam in Montana is part of a water system considered to be in need of upgrade. Nation property near Babb. Ross said permits and plans were in place a few years ago to upgrade the diversion structure but when funding wasn’t available, the permits expired. The projects would be expensive. Ross estimates upgrades to the diversion structure alone would cost $40 million and upgrading the siphons could be $100 million or more. The Milk River also supplies water users in Montana. Once it weaves in and out of Canada, the river flows through the Fresno Res-

ervoir to Havre and all the way through Glasgow before joining the Missouri River system and eventually the Gulf of Mexico. About 140,000 acres are irrigated from the river system on the Montana side. Mike Hilliard, a division manager with the bureau of reclamation in Montana, said the age of the infrastructure is a concern. He is one of the people tasked with monitoring and repairing it. “This is an old system. It’s 100 years old. It hasn’t been maintained very well the last 100 years.

There’s been patches here and there, Band-Aids that have been put along,” he said. “If this system fails, or if this system has issues, getting water onto the Milk River system is not going to be pretty.” Hilliard said part of the challenge in doing repairs is the need to get approval from a joint board of control before proceeding. That board foots 75 percent of any costs, so it has a keen interest in any work done. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

NEWS » CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE Hilliard said the system was set up as a “single source irrigation project,” with the joint board as a primary beneficiary.However, the system’s benefits go well beyond that, he added, and the joint board is now working with the Blackfeet Nation and other groups to adjust cost allocations. “I can’t stress enough (that) this is the lifeblood of the high line and also in the Canadian portions too,” said Hilliard. “It provides a lot of support for farmers and irrigators alike and municipalities also.” Loren Bird Rattler, project manager for the Blackfeet Tribe’s agriculture resource management plan, acknowledged the role the tribe must play in ensuring water supplies. “For us here upstream, we’re

doing the best that we can to ensure that you downstream have the opportunity and can utilize the water more efficiently, so that means upgrades to our infrastructure, upgrades to many areas,” said Bird Rattler. “Those are projects that we’re certainly working on identifying, figuring out how we’re going to get those paid for.” Jim Bester, a civil engineer with long experience in water management infrastructure who was on the recent tour, said he isn’t surprised that the diversion and siphons built in the early 1900s continue to do their jobs. He said things were built to last back then, “and it’s been good that they have, but the problem is vulnerability.”

In his view, the diversion structure would have to be replaced rather than updated or repaired because of its age, gate structure, concrete condition and dimensions. As for the siphon system, “that does not have long-term life as is,” Bester said. “It can be armoured and give it an extended life. It could be lined on the inside, reinforced on the outside. There’s ways to do that. But probably what they should do is reconstruct that river crossing conduit.” Whether or not that happens, Ross said building on-stream storage on the Milk River on the Canadian side would provide more stability for water users. “We are hoping for some form of on-stream storage so that we could actually hold some water back. If there’s a small failure (of Montana infrastructure), we can actually have water and augment the river downstream for fish habitat and also for the town of Milk River and possibly the irrigators if we had enough water,” Ross said. Many studies have been done on that proposal. Ross and waters h e d e x e c u t i v e d i re c t o r Ti m Romanow said there continues to be potential. “It feels like the time is right. There’s been investigations for storage on the Alberta side of the Milk River for 100 years now,” said Romanow.

“There hasn’t been a very strong appetite over those years for one reason or another.” Compliance with international water sharing agreements is one issue, as is concern about the environment when any river is dammed. Ross said the latter concern has been addressed in numerous studies on the dam proposal and through the watershed’s regional plan. “The Milk River is probably the most highly disturbed river of any one in Alberta. It’s actually had inter-basin transfer from the St. Mary into the Milk for over 100 years. This is the new norm,” he said. “There’s a real need for on-stream storage. There’s been studies that show it would be beneficial. I guess now we need the will and the money to actually go and do it.” barb.glen@producer.com

Ontario gets rain, but damage done For most areas, it was the driest year since 1988 BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

WALK WITH US TO END CANCER EDMONTON SEPTEMBER 24, 2016 WILLIAM HAWRELAK PARK SASKATOON OCTOBER 1, 2016 KIWANIS PARK

DRESDEN, Ont. — Southern Ontario’s drought broke in midAugust with widespread rain, but it was too late for the corn crop. “It looks like an average or below average crop for most of the guys. Now we’re seeing disease and pest issues with things like the western bean cutworm and corn smut,” said Moe Agostino, chief commodity strategist with Farms.com Risk Management Inc. “The beans are looking a bit better. Some are not as mature as they should be. With the rain we’ve just had, they do have more potential, but it’s too late for the corn.” Agostino, who is leading Farm. com’s 2016 Great Ontario Yield Tour, also visited major growing areas in the United States. He said the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s recent forecast for bumper corn yields of 175 bushels and close to 50 bu. soybeans may be overly optimistic. “I don’t think the market believes them,” Agostino said. Low pressure systems have regularly crossed Ontario this summer, but none brought more than scattered showers until Aug. 13-16. Marcel Roelandt, who farms near Tilbury, said no measurable rain fell from mid-June until Aug.16, when 30 millimetres fell. A half hour away, Lloyd Dunlop was more fortunate with a few light showers arriving in a timely fashion. He was pleased with his sweet banana pepper yield and has hopes for a good processing tomato harvest. Dunlop’s corn has suffered, but the Dresden-area farmer is taking the situation in stride.

“The good Lord looks after us. The more you make the more you spend, so what’s the difference?” The hit-and-miss scenario has been playing out throughout southern Ontario. Agostino said some of the corn fields in the Haldimand area are all but a write-off. It’s the driest year in most of the province since 1988. Geoff Coulson, a meteorologist with Environment Canada, said much of the province has received 40 to 50 percent of the long-term average rainfall and some areas even less. “We have had the fronts going through this summer, but the precipitation coming out of them has been spotty,” he said. A broad sweep of farmland east of Toronto to Kingston along Lake Ontario’s north shore has been especially dry. There’s also been drought in Haldimand-Norfolk, Niagara, Elgin and south of Georgian Bay and in smaller pockets throughout the province. Pat Cherneski, manager of Agriculture Canada’s National Agroclimate Information Service, said climate change may be part of the picture. “I don’t think it’s going out on a limb to say that,” Cherneski said. “In the last few years, there has b e e n m o re e x t re m e w e at h e r events. The complexity is increasing.… The overall global climate is changing, and there are impacts from that.” One crop that did do well in Ontario was winter wheat with many farmers recording yields of more than 100 bu. per acre. In recent years, the average wheat yield in the province has been close to 80 bu.

DAIRY FARM OPEN HOUSE

Visitors all eyes and ears on dairy farm tour Event held to educate public on how cattle are raised and explain milk’s journey to the fridge BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

IRON SPRINGS, Alta. — Jane and Gerrit van Asch pulled off a feat of perfect timing Aug. 6 at their dairy farm, Van Iron Farms. During on open house that drew 430 people, one of their 319 dairy cows gave birth, much to the astonishment of several visitors. Jane van Asch acknowledged that the birth on that day was pure chance but said she was delighted with the event and the response. “One little boy said, ‘it just dove out,’ ” said Jane about the newborn calf. “ K i d s a n d a d u l t s w e re j u s t amazed.” The open house, promoted by Alberta Milk, was the second dairy farm open house held in the province this summer. The other one was held at Yff Dairy near Penhold June 18. Van Asch said she and her family felt it was important to show people the source of their milk. “Just seeing it first hand was a big eye opener for a lot of people,” she said. “There were a lot of kids specifically who were just flabbergasted that this is actually where their milk comes from. This is where it starts.” Fifty-two volunteers, including members of the Green Acres 4-H club and other dairy producers in the region, helped the van Asches organize the event. A breakfast, barn tours and various children’s activities were part of the event. Two veterinarians, a hoof trimmer and experts on dairy feed and artificial insemination techniques also provided information.

what’s going on. They really loved the fact of the hoof trimmer and the vet being there.” Kelsie Gilks, school and agriculture programs co-ordinator for Alberta Milk, said such open houses are a way to engage consumers and build trust in the industry. “The average urban consumer, we find they’re detached from agriculture, but they’ve still got that desire to know where their food’s coming from, which is why the event is there to showcase the farm to fridge journey, but in a fun, family friendly way,” she said. Gilks attended the event with a full-scale model cow that allows people to try their hand at attaching milkers to an udder. Van Asch said the most common question asked during the event was about the use of additional hormones in dairy cattle. “People were really, really surprised and very happy to know that there was no hormones in the milk. We do not shoot up the cows with hormones.” She said visitors also liked being able to roam the entire farm without restriction and that no part of the operation was off limits. The van Asch family emigrated from Holland to Alberta in 1995 and settled near Iron Springs. Gerrit’s family has been in the dairy business for about 100 years. Jane and Gerrit have four children — Raoul, Stanley, Wesley and Nadia — who are all teenagers. The farm also has three full-time employees. Gilks said no more dairy open houses are planned for this year, but farmers have already expressed interest in holding events next year. barb.glen@producer.com

Book captures colony life memories Hutterite leaves colony to follow his dreams BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Kelly Hofer’s book, Hutterite, invites visitors into the quiet world of the Green Acres colony in southern Manitoba. Young and old members are captured performing farm tasks and sharing in family life. “It genuinely is about our culture,” Hofer said. “With this book, I am trying to elevate Hutterites. They deserve a lot more.” As he combed through more than 140,000 photos dating back to the first images he shot at age 11, he originally considered showing oddities but settled on showing the magic of ordinary lives. No w 2 3 , t h e p h o t o g r a p h e r launched his self-published book this month by working through Kickstarter, a website that provides a funding platform for creative projects. He willingly shares portraits of the life he left behind at 19. That departure also gave him the courage to tell the world he was an artist and gay. “I was that weird kid,” he said from the loft art studio that he shares with 11 Calgary artists. Art was not discouraged on the colony but talented youth were encouraged to channel that ability to support life on the colony. “They don’t go out of their way to encourage art but they don’t squash it,” Hofer said. His father was principal of his school and kept a point-and-shoot camera at home. Kelly used it to shoot the farm and landscape and later added portraits. In this age of cellphones and the internet, he said it is harder to suppress the urge to record life’s moments through pictures. “Everyone has a cellphone. You can’t really say no to cameras. Even the minister in our colony was very against me shooting photos but he had a cellphone and you could see him shooting photos,” he said. After high school, Hofer studied web design at college but his passion was photography. During that time, he was considering leaving colony life behind like his sister had. While she was visiting, they packed his belongings and he left with $300 in his pocket. He lived with her in Calgary for a few months and she helped him get

a job in electronics. He soon landed photography work. The break from the colony tugged at his heart for a long time. “It is a very difficult choice to make. Yes, I’m gay but it is hard to leave the culture behind,” he said. Hofer had to be self-sufficient. Meals were no longer waiting for him and the support of his group was gone. “Every person you know in life is on the colony,” he said. Hofer misses the life but is no longer a believer. “I believe in morality but not religion.” Repeated requests to return for a visit were refused but this year he was allowed to return for a half day for a family wedding. His new life has taken him around the world on photo assignments and to the United States, Mexico, United Kingdom, Germany and China for documentary film work. His current work is commercial assignments, fashion, sports, portraits and some weddings. He is also exploring his affinity for electronics and works with other artists to embed electronic sensors in clothing. Electrical sensors display when the muscles are working so activity can be monitored during general work or physical training. Artists at his studio practise everything from three-dimensional printing to more traditional art forms. “This is actually my colony. In this studio, we share tools, we share knowledge together and bounce ideas around. That is exactly how a colony works,” he said. He keeps in touch with colony friends and cousins through Facebook and his parents have visited, but he sees connections loosening because their lives are so different. “This is the last thread that is holding me to the culture … the photos I still have,” he said.

HEALTHY VEGETABLE

Okra — the latest vegetable on the chopping block TEAM RESOURCES

SARAH GALVIN, BSHEc

kra, once an exotic vegetable in the northern climates, is becoming more popular. I found mine at the Swift Current and District Farmers’ Market in Swift Current, Sask. It’s available year round but it is in season in September in the southern United States where most of it is grown. Okra, also known as gumbo or ladyfinger, originated in West Africa, Ethiopia and South Asia. It came to North America during the slave trade. Fresh okra should be refrigerated unwashed and loosely wrapped in perforated plastic bags. The pods must be harvested when they are young and preferably two inches (five centimetres) long. It is an excellent source of soluble fibre that helps lower cholesterol, reducing the risk of heart disease. It also contains insoluble fibre, which helps to keep the intestinal tract healthy, lowering the risk of cancers like colorectal cancer. During cooking, okra excretes a slimy substance that thickens your dish. It has a subtle flavour, similar to eggplant and complements tomatoes, onions, corn and shellfish.

CHICKEN AND SMOKED SAUSAGE GUMBO The key to this traditional Louisiana Creole meal is making a deep caramel coloured roux. Andouille is a smoked sausage made with pork that originated in France and was brought to Louisiana by exiled Acadians. File powder is a thickener that can be used when okra is not in season, but it can be omitted. 1/2 c. 1/2 c. 1/2 large 1 1 tbsp. 1/2 lb. 2 stalks 1

lard 125 mL flour 125 mL onion, diced chicken, cut 1.75-2 kg into 10 pieces basic Creole 15 mL spices or store-bought Creole spice blend spicy smoked 225 g sausage, sliced into bite-sized pieces celery, diced green bell pepper, seeded and diced

3 tbsp. 1 clove 1/2 tsp. 1 qt. 1 6 oz.

tomato sauce 45 mL garlic, minced dried thyme 2 mL chicken stock 1.25 L bay leaf Andouille 170 g sausage, chopped 1 c. sliced okra, 250 mL fresh or frozen, 1/2-inch (13 mm) thick slices 1 tbsp. Worcestershire 15 mL sauce salt, freshly ground black pepper, file powder and Tabasco, to taste

Season the chicken pieces with two tablespoons (30 mL) of the Creole spices while you prepare the vegetables. Make sure all vegetables are cut, diced, chopped, minced and ready to go before beginning the roux. You must stand at the stove and stir the roux continuously to prevent it from burning. In a large cast-iron or heavy-bottomed pan, heat the lard over high heat. Whisk the flour into the hot fat. It will sizzle. Reduce heat to moderate and continue whisking until roux becomes deep brown in color, about 15 minutes. Switch to a wooden spoon and stir onions into the roux, then reduce heat to medium-low. Continue stirring until roux becomes a glossy dark brown, about 10 minutes. Add chicken to the pan. Raise heat to moderate, and cook, turning pieces until slightly browned, about 10 minutes. Add sliced smoked sausage and stir for about a minute. Add celery, bell peppers, tomato and garlic, and continue stirring for about three minutes. Add thyme, chicken stock and bay leaves and bring gumbo to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes. Stir occasionally, skimming off the fat from the surface every so often. Add chopped Andouille, okra and Worcestershire. Season with salt and pepper, several dashes of file powder and Tabasco, all to taste. Simmer for another 45 minutes, continuing to skim fat from surface. Remove bay leaves and serve in bowls over rice. Add more file powder at the table, if desired.

Add to cornmeal mixture, whisking until smooth. Smash garlic to make a paste. Stir okra, jalapeno and garlic paste into cornmeal mixture. Batter will be thick and will thicken even more as it sits, so add water if needed. Heat one tablespoon (15 mL) oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Pour one tablespoon (15 mL)

batter for each cake into skillet and gently flatten into a two-inch (5 cm) cake. Don’t overcrowd the skillet. Cook three minutes or until tops are covered with bubbles, then turn and cook three more minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and season with kosher salt and pepper. Keep warm in a 200 F (95 C) oven. Repeat procedure with remaining batter and oil. Spread each cake with about one teaspoon (5 mL) pimiento cheese. Top with arugula, tomato, basil and kosher salt and pepper. Source: adapted from Southern Living.

COPING WITH MID-LIFE

Daughter not pleased with how Dad is adjusting to life after divorce SPEAKING OF LIFE

JACKLIN ANDREWS, BA, MSW

I am not sure what I should do about my dad. He is a bit

out of line these days. Since he and Mom split about four years ago, he has taken to acting like a kid again. He is 52 and dates women who are too young for him, most likely picking them up from the various escort services. He drives whatever hot little car he can find and spends his weekends sitting in noisy bars. That is not the dad I know or the dad I thought would be a grandfather to my children. What can I do to help him settle down, act his age and be

there for me and my family.

I think that your dad is probably caught up in mid-life. People handle it differently, but the task for all is always the same. Mid-life is a time when people come to terms with who they are. Some look at themselves and make remarkable changes. Sometimes the cranky, demanding father becomes a sensitive, caring grandfather or the quiet wom-

an gets involved in social or political causes and spends hours campaigning to make the world a better place. People in mid-life are realizing that there will be limitations for them on the road ahead. Most 52-year-old men cannot run and jump with the same dexterity they demonstrated in late adolescence. To them, mid-life means a loss that they do not like so they spend time trying to deny it. As a conse-

quence, they miss out on opportunities they did not have when they were younger. Yo u c a n n o t ma k e y o u r d a d change. You cannot get him on a track that you would want, but you can listen to him. Allow him to grieve the loss of youth and open himself up to the beauty of life itself.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

National school board chair willing to listen Official says he wants communities to have a voice on decision-making BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

ROBLIN, Man. — Representing a region’s interest and giving voice to its concerns are behind Floyd Martens’ longtime service on school boards in Manitoba and now nationally. “When decisions are made from somewhere else by people who don’t understand the local community, it may or may not be in the best interest of the community,” said the recently elected chair of the Canadian School Boards Association. He was first elected a school trustee in 1992 in the Roblin area and has been re-elected ever since. He served as board chair or vicechair for that board for many years and is currently the past-president of the Manitoba School Boards Association, where he represented the Mountain View School Division. “The key is you need to listen lots. There is a variety of opinions on every issue,” he said. “You’re not always going to be popular. With any decision made, someone will be unhappy.” He noted how local school boards and their provincial association differ in scope. The latter deals more directly with the provincial government and has an advocacy role, with the changes it makes

Floyd Martens of Roblin, Man., has gained years of experience on school boards. He was recently elected chair of the Canadian School Boards Association. | KAREN MORRISON PHOTO often less obvious than those made at the local level. Voter turnout can be low for local school board elections but improves when they are combined with municipal elections and when there are issues in a community, said Martens. He said his goal is to increase public understanding about the important role school boards play. “Government taking over many school divisions and their decision-making processes are eroding some of the community voice,” he said of the Manitoba government’s decision in 2002 to reduce the

number of school divisions in the province by one-third. For the trustees, it meant overseeing larger divisions with more schools, diminished responsibilities, including less direct involvement in hiring principals, and a greater focus on policy directions and operations. Martens said larger divisions also mean a larger time commitment for trustees. For him, it means travel to Dauphin for board meetings. His division of Mountain View chose to amalgamate with neighbouring divisions voluntarily rather than have it imposed on it.

“This way, we could come in on the ground floor,” said Martens. He is mainly positive about amalgamation, feeling they have not lost as much as first feared. The region held onto its six high schools, he added. Wayne Steen, a school trustee with the Saskatchewan Rivers School Division, said similar amalgamations in Saskatchewan have been positive for students in smaller divisions who now have access to specialized services such as speech pathologists and occupational therapists and for staff members who have access to better in-service opportunities. In Saskatchewan, the number of school divisions was consolidated into 22 from 82. Steen felt the rural voice is still strongly heard, noting the current chair of his provincial association is from a rural region. “Do we get the answer we want all the time? No, that’s not changed,” said Steen. He said his urban-rural division’s biggest challenges are declining enrolments and transportation. “It’s pretty bad when you go to school for five hours and you spend three hours to get there and back home,” he said. Enrolment declines due to job losses and increased farm sizes locally are ongoing concerns in rural Manitoba. Martens said his division’s international student program has injected money into the local economy through home stays and tuitions and provided revenue for

the school division. “It’s been very positive, exposing students to different cultures, and it keeps enrolments at a better place,” he said. Martens, the father of three adult daughters and the son of a school teacher, felt he had something to contribute when first asked to run for office. “I saw it as an opportunity to serve,” he said. The former pastor lives in Roblin, Man., where his wife, Angela, and daughter, Melissa, run a gift and home decor shop. He stepped back from full-time ministry when the family opened that business six years ago. He said juggling so many responsibilities meant having to rent an apartment in Dauphin and living out of a suitcase. Martens said education has changed significantly from its beginnings in teaching children how to read and write. “Now there’s so much information, but discerning what’s valuable and where to find it are important,” he said. Martens was pleased to help add child psychology courses at the local high school, something he called an important life skill for future parents. He called his decades-long involvement on school boards educational. “It’s never been boring. When it comes to that point, I’m done,” said Martens. karen.morrison@producer.com

ny drive through the Prairies will reveal familiar signage, with some version of the sign, ”Proud to Be a Community in Bloom.” CIB is a volunteer-based nonprofit Canadian organization committed to fostering civic pride, environmental responsibility and beautification through community participation and the challenge of involvement in an internationally recognized Quality of Life program. It is much more than a beauty contest. Bloom is defined as a state or time of high development or achievement. CIB helps a community bloom by helping preserve its natural and cultural heritage, exchanging ideas and enjoying cultural expression, increasing community property values, attracting tourists and enhancing the visual appeal of neighbourhoods and public spaces. During July and August, my own yard suffers along with my community plots because I am away

minding other people’s communities instead of my own. However, this is a small price to pay for the privilege of being a provincial, national and international judge for CIB and the pleasure of seeing “People, Plants & Pride Growing Together” as the Prairies bloom each year. Provincially, communities are grouped according to population for competitive judging. There is also the option of participating in the Friends (non-competitive) category, evaluated or non-evaluated. Winners from the provincial program are invited to join the national program, where they have several options, including an interna-

tional challenge. Every summer, volunteer judges evaluate municipalities on six key criteria: tidiness, environmental action, heritage conservation, urban forestry, landscape and floral displays. The principle of community involvement is so fundamental to the program that it is evaluated within each criterion. Communities are not judged against each other. They are judged against their potential or what they do with what they have. After visiting a community, the two judges work together to evaluate the community on the above criteria by giving a numerical score that will translate into the number

of blooms awarded. They will also choose a special mention and provide a comprehensive document for distribution at the fall awards that includes their observations and suggestions. In Manitoba, communities are invited to Come Fall in Love with Stonewall on Sept. 9-10 for its conference and awards ceremony. The Alberta provincial awards will be held Sept. 17 in Cold Lake and the British Columbia awards

are planned for Sept. 30 -Oct. 1 in Hope.

ON THE FARM

Trial and error for startup U-pick berry farm Operation still learning which strawberry varieties are best suited to the area and how to water to prevent mould BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

PINE RIVER, Man. — Life is good on the farm for 11-year-old Levi Williamason. A swimming pool, trampoline, all-terrain vehicle, horses, chickens and rows of sweet strawberries fill his farmyard. He has easy access to his maternal grandparents across the cow pasture, target practice with his bow and arrow and fishing with his

dad on Pine River. His parents, Jodi and Oggy, operate a U-pick and custom pick strawberry operation and sawmill and raise chickens for local consumers. “It’s all right, as long as I don’t have to work too hard,” said Levi of farm work. Jodi said Levi has picked as many as five pails of strawberries in a day, but most of the fieldwork falls to her. Oggy, who spends his winters

away logging, processes wood to heat the family home and to sell to local consumers and his father-inlaw’s sawmill. “To make something like that pay off, you try to do different things,” said Oggy. There is significant bush and occasional wildlife encounters in their area, but Jodi can manage when Oggy is gone, having recently put down a bear eating their chickens. The couple’s goal is to expand

gradually with little or no debt, but it’s difficult to be small when businesses and suppliers cater to largescale operations. “We have a long ways to go before we’re small,” quipped Levi about their modest operation. Their customers come from many miles to pick strawberries, and the Williamsons often deliver fruit into Dauphin. Membership in the Prairie Fruit Growers Association gets their name on the group’s website and enables them to buy plants at discounted prices.

ON THE FARM

THE WILLIAMSON FAMILY Pine River, Man. The Williamsons decided to grow strawberries after finding an abundance of wild ones on the quarter section of land they bought from Jodi’s parents. Neighbours leaving the business offered them their plants to help them get started. Oggy suggested Thysyldo as a farm name after painstaking hours clearing bush, building the road in and setting up the house trailer. “We would often find ourselves saying, ‘this’ll do,’ and so it’s a name that’s stuck. Things may not be perfect, but they’ll do,” said Jodi. She gained valuable work experience and mentorship as a labourer at Prairie Dome near Yorkton, Sask. They have had financial and other setbacks since startup, including the demise of 2,000 strawberry plants. “Some other strawberry farmers we talked to said we put too much fertilizer too close to the plants. We

applied it by hand, and I think that was the whole problem. We burned them,” said Jodi. “This year, we used the same fertilizer again in a much lesser amount and all is well.” Jodi cheerfully takes it all in stride. “We had to view it as how it had to be,” said Jodi, a Mennonite who grew up in Steinbach, Man. Levi attends a Mennonite school in Pine River, and Jodi continues to attend church and wear the traditional attire and head dress despite her departure from the group. She dons pants for safety and practical reasons when working at her father’s nearby sawmill and on her farm. The family is still tweaking their operation and learning what works best for growing produce on their sandy soil. “Strawberries do good in sandy soil, but weeds not so much,” Oggy said. “It’s trial and error, and hopefully we don’t make too many more errors.” The Williamsons use minimal amounts of chemicals, spraying the blossoms to deter fruit malformation. They limit the use of their current sprinkler system, which can cause mould to form on the plants. “We prefer drip irrigation because it goes straight to the berries, there’s no weeds in the rows and it’s not wasting water because we have to haul (our water),” Jodi said. Their newly planted field has gravity fed drip irrigation from a water tank. The downside is that algae in the water can plug the holes of irrigation strips. They have 1,000 plants for picking and have planted the same amount again for next year, switching to Kent from Glooscap to reduce the amount of foliage. “It’s too hard for people to find the berries,” said Jodi. karen.morrison@producer.com

STOMACH ACID

Heartburn and pickles HEALTH CLINIC

CLARE ROWSON, MD

I have suffered from heartburn on and off since I was about 50. A friend said that if I eat dill pickles or drink pickle juice every day, it will cure my heartburn. I tried it once and it made me feel worse. What is your opinion? Will it work if I persevere? I take a lot of antacids.

The vinegar, either in the form of a pickle or as diluted apple cider vinegar, puts acid back into your stomach. By drinking a bit of vinegar in water or eating a pickle, your stomach gets the message to turn off the pumps that create the hydrochloric acid. Don’t try and drink undiluted vinegar. Your stomach requires this acid to help digest food and absorb certain vitamins such as vitamin B12. Every time you swallow an antacid, whether Tums or Maalox or some other prescribed medication such as Ranitidine, you are suppressing the natural acid production that causes a rebound effect because the stomach tries even harder to make more acid. It becomes a vicious cycle. The evidence for this is mostly anecdotal so more scientific controlled studies are needed to confirm these stories. Prevention is better than cure, and so you can help prevent heartburn by eating smaller meals, not eating too close to bedtime and not lying down flat after a meal. Some people find that it helps to avoid certain foods and drinks such as coffee, pop, chocolate and spicy foods.

BONE INJURIES

I broke both bones in my leg just above the ankle. I have a cast but I am not allowed to walk on it. I have to use crutches. How long will it be from the time of the accident to when I can get a walking cast? It is difficult for me to get around with the crutches because I am older.

Most people with this type of injury require surgery to pin the broken bones together to help keep bones aligned so that they can heal faster and better. On average, the time from the injury to getting a walking cast is six to eight weeks. In some people, it can be as little as four weeks. However, it depends on how well you heal, the severity of the fracture and also your age. I expect the doctor will assess your situation and perform X-rays to see how well the break is healing before she makes a decision about the type of cast.

RED DEER, Alta. — Smoky Trout Farm may see its customers for only five minutes once a year, but that is enough to build a lasting relationship. Hidden off a major central Alberta highway near Red Deer, the farm has been operating for 18 years, supplying customers with rainbow trout to stock ponds, dugouts and

of our business is now the product that goes to maintain water quality in the pond.” Dan, who worked for Haliburton, bought a former chicken farm on a small acreage when he was transferred to the Red Deer area. He wanted to do something with the property and convinced Max, who was a mapmaker with a survey company, to join him. Alberta Agriculture was offering a three day course on fish farming, and they attended. “They gave us a lot of information, but I don’t know if we absorbed it. We were very green,” said Max. Ray was a banker and joined his father and brother three years ago to handle the books, marketing and farm work. They started with a few small tanks and eventually renovated the chicken barn to hatch fish, rear them and build up the environmental side of the business. Sustainability guides their business plan. The farm is surrounded by pastureland and canola fields, and Red Deer County has been supportive. “It is very seldom that you will find an acreage that becomes a selfsupporting agriculture-based business,” said Dan. “To have agriculture where you are supporting families off a small ag base is very exciting for counties.” The environmental footprint is small because they use well water that is filtered and recirculated, and they have built up wetlands to handle effluent. They added a solar powered aeration system but rely on power from the grid to run the filtration system. “We probably have the same footprint as three or four head of cattle,” said Max. The cycle starts when they buy certified disease-free rainbow trout eggs from Ontario. They are hatched and grown over winter, and customers make arrangements to pick up fish in the spring to stock their dugouts, ponds or privately owned lakes. The fish are female and triploid, meaning they have been sterilized and cannot reproduce. They are sold by the pound and with good management can grow large and live five to seven years. Fish will survive over winter if water quality and aeration are maintained. The Menards train customers to rear the fish and maintain the water quality so that it is a healthy clean environment. “We now have more customers who buy smaller fish, grow them and keep them year round. They now have sustainable fish,” Ray said. Their biggest single customer is the Alberta Conservation Association. There are also a number of private community associations in Calgary with lakes covering about 50 acres for recreation and aesthetics. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

A handful of baby trout wiggle in Max Menard’s hands. These fish were hatched at Smoky Trout Farm near Red Deer and are sold to customers to stock ponds, dugouts and private lakes.

» CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE Ma h o ga n y , Ma c k e n z i e a n d Arbour lakes are among those customers. The Menards supply trout and work with customers to rear the fish and manage the water to prevent algae and bird predation. Fish can get diseases, but that may occur because they are overcrowded and stressed. “The biggest issue with customers is a lack of oxygen in their ponds and they have too much nutrients coming in,” Ray said. A farm of this type can be labour intensive because someone must

always be there to feed fish and monitor equipment. Family members handled all the work until recently, but a new employee with a master’s degree in aquaculture has now joined them. Their main goal is to make the farm more automated and efficient to save money on energy costs. Alberta Agriculture helped cover half the cost of their solar aeration system, which reduces power costs by 10 percent. However, they worry they may have to increase the price of their fish if the upcoming provincial carbon tax is more burdensome than

tem to their cellphones and home phones to warn them of pending trouble. The buildings are insured but the fish are not, so a power outage would be a major loss on many levels. Max used to sort the fish manually with a special hand-held screen that the small fish fell through. He installed a special conveyor system that pumps the fish up into a sorting device similar to what is used to sort fruit. It reduced his work load from six hours to sort fish from a single tank to less than two hours. They want to expand in the near

future, and changes would include more automation to reduce power bills. The environment is critical to them. Algae is a common problem, so they offer biological products such as beneficial bacteria to break down nitrogen and phosphorus in the water that may have come from cattle on pasture, drinking from dugouts, fertilizer on cropland or a treed area with a lot of leaf debris. Many of Alberta’s public lakes were closed this year because of blue green algae. Copper sulfate products can be used, but the Menards prefer to work with clients to prevent nutrient runoff from livestock, septic fields and other potential pollutants. The Menards said they do not have much competition from farms supplying stocking fish and companies selling aeration products. Water management is the major area of growth, and they have participated in community events where the fish are released as education projects. They also believe the province should pay more attention to water management because many natural lakes and rivers in the province are in trouble, especially from algae blooms. They have learned that customers with private water sources and fish to care for are more willing to take action and behave sustainably. “Customers get very passionate about their ponds and their fish, especially those who feed them,” Ray said. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new pest heading north in Alberta and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moving fast. Although a regular in southern Alberta and southern Saskatchewan, the pea leaf weevil has now been sighted as far north as Athabasca, Alberta. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a real range expansion,â&#x20AC;? says Scott Meers, insect management specialist with Alberta Agriculture. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a concerning issue for the Highway 2 corridor in Alberta. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen some very significant numbers, especially in the Red Deer and Lacombe area.â&#x20AC;? As damage from the pea leaf weevil

shelterbelts or perennial legume fields in late April/early May. It begins feeding on available leguminous greens and then moves into pea or fava bean fields to reproduce. The pea leaf weevil is a five millimetre, slender, greyish-brown insect with a short snout. Three light-coloured stripes run along its abdomen. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an easy insect to spot, as it drops to the ground on approach, where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to see. Evidence of its presence comes from crescent-shaped notches on pea leaves. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the feeding of the adult pea leaf weevils that causes enough

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not so critical in high organic soils, if the soil produces lots of nitrogen,â&#x20AC;? Meers says. Should farmers then place more nitrogen with their pea seed? Meers thinks that would be contradictory, as peas are usually planted for improved soil fertility. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The implications of the pea leaf weevil are for this crop and the next one too â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more subtle,â&#x20AC;? Meers says. Farmers should consider that when thinking about pea leaf weevil control. The economic benefits of a healthy pulse crop extend past the current year.

MANAGING PEA LEAF WEEVIL Here are six ways to manage pea leaf weevil, as listed on the Alberta Agriculture and Forestry website. 1. Plant early to maximize yields and potentially escape the weevil in cold springs. 2. No-till cropping systems, integrated pest management systems and good crop rotations are recommended. 3. Use inoculants and adequate levels of fertilizer to maximize crop yields. 4. Registered seed treatments are recommended if high populations of pea l f il i h h b f

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 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 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.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Farmers are too damn busy to care about what Joe Consumer thinks about what we farm and how we farm it,â&#x20AC;? she said to an audience temporarily stunned into silence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re growing food and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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.

CESME, Turkey â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 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.

Abdullah Ozdemir, general manager of the Arbel Group, a subsidiary of AGT Food and Ingredients and Turkeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest importer of Canadian lentils, said the strict policy poses significant risk to importers and exporters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is now a headache in Turkey.

lants modified using the controversial gene editing technology known as CRISPR/Cas-9 wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be sailing past regulatory scrutiny to the marketplace in Canada as they currently do in the U.S. While the U.S. regulatory system has determined plants developed using CRISPR are not GMOs and therefore do not fall under the regulatory process, Canada takes a much broader approach to assessing new plant-modification technology. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Canada the approach to the regulatory oversight is based on the novelty of the product rather than the means of development,â&#x20AC;? said Cindy Pearson, national manager of the Plant Biosafety Office with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If there is a new trait in there, then it would trigger the need for a premarket assessment.â&#x20AC;? Since it was developed in the mid1990s to deal with the first genetically modified crops in the pipeline, the federal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Plants with Novel Traits regulatory process has been applied to plants produced

SUCCESSFUL BERRY SEASON

Couple say berry farm a satisfying experience BY TENNESSA WILD SASKATOON NEWSROOM

DID YOU KNOW? • Saskatoons also go by other names, including serviceberries, June berries, shadberries, sugar pear and Indian pear. • The name is derived from the Cree word Mis-sask-quah-too-mina, a word that sounds very similar to Saskatoon. • The berries were a staple for Aboriginals and early settlers. The berries were enjoyed fresh, or steamed and mashed and then left to dry into a brick-like consistency for longevity. Pieces of the bricks were then chipped off to add to soups and stews.

Berry-picking season came early this year in much of the Prairies. Saskatoons and other fruit, such as cherries, raspberries and strawberries, were ripe two to three weeks ahead of their usual time. It meant a good year for Lots Berry Farm of Saskatoon. “This is probably one of the most amazing years,” said Brad Hazel-

wanter, who opened the hobby saskatoon berry farm in 1997 with his wife, Robin. “Last year was an amazing year as well, but this year just topped the charts.… June is when we had our first commercial pickers coming out and then we started our U-Pick after that.” The six acre farm is covered in 3,500 saskatoon berry bushes. A good year yields about two onegallon pails full per bush, but Brad

and Robin saw those yields double this year. “In this case right here we always have to be on the conservative side, so we’re looking at pretty close to 15 tonnes of berries this year,” said Brad. Brad and Robin would rather see the berries picked and taken home than go to waste, so they were offering price breaks and flexible picking times. “They’re long days, there’s no doubt about it,” Robin said. “We’re flexible, we’re both retired.” Brad had the idea to develop the area into a saskatoon berry farm after reading an article, decades earlier, in Harrowsmith magazine. “It goes back to a dream of mine years and years ago…. I saw the article and I thought, ‘I’m going to go and see the people,’ ” said Brad. The farm has come a long way since its early development. Robin remembers years of picking weeds and thorough irrigation, but says it has all been worth it. “Mowing is really the only maintenance we have now. For us, it’s just a couple weeks of the year and it’s fun,” she said. The farm contains three varieties of saskatoon berries : Martin, Thiessen and Northline. The plants were one of the first generations of genetic modification when Brad and Robin bought them. “Prairie Plant Systems was just starting up when we were doing this and we went with clone stock from the mother trees. It’s supposed to be really, really good and it turned out fantastic,” said Brad. The pickers are also happy with the product as many come back year over year. The Hillcrest Hutterite colony returned to pick this year and were so impressed they contacted the West Bench colony to come out and pick too. Helen Walter is a veteran berry picker from West Bench and drove up with many from the Cypress Hills area after hearing about the overwhelming quantity and quality available. “I’ve only seen them this big once in Manitoba. We went picking there once. I’m sure it was nearly 20 years ago,” Walter said. “It’s nice to pick; they come off easy and the size is right and they’re all ready. It’s an excellent pick.” Walter said they rarely pick out in the wild anymore because of safety concerns. A cougar was seen recently in their area. Brad said the berries that weren’t picked during the season are left for Mother Nature. “You’ll see that the wild animals will actually start coming in and start foraging,” he said. “Coyotes are absolutely amazing, watching them eat saskatoon berries. They sit on their haunches and they actually shovel it into their mouths.” He said the animals tend to come after picking season when the people have left. newsroom@producer.com

July 21 and July 24 were notable days in Alberta. They were the only days within a two-week stretch when no hailstorms occurred in the province. But in all three prairie provinces, the number of hail claims is greater than the five-year average as reported by the Canadian Crop Hail Association. “Claim numbers are very high and producers are asked to be patient as adjusters work to cover all claims,” said the CCHA in an Aug. 11 news release. Agriculture Financial Services Corp. in Alberta has also reported a high number of claims and said the number might exceed that of 2012, a record hail year in Alberta. In the south, CCHA reported some crops are being cut for feed due to severe hail damage. According to its list of storms, the south has been subjected to a high number of storms between July 18 and Aug. 4. In Saskatchewan, the first three weeks of July brought considerable hail activity. A brief lull at the end of the month was marred by a storm July 31 that affected a wide swath in the province. “Total number of claims received to date remains well above the fiveyear average and in many areas, rainfall continues to hamper adjusting activities,” the CCHA said about Saskatchewan hail data. In Manitoba, one hailstorm July 20 that came north from the United States into Darlingford and Thornhill lasted for 45 minutes, causing severe damage. The CCHA said on that same day, a storm entered Manitoba from Saskatchewan, hitting the Hamiota and Minnedosa areas.

The first units of the Tribine combine are scheduled to roll out the factory door this month. The centre-articulated combine employs twin Cummins engines, more than 13,000 sq. inches of cleaning area and a 1,000 bushel grain tank. | TRIBUNE INDUSTRIES PHOTO HARVESTING EQUIPMENT

Tribine: not your daddy’s combine • • • • •

Twin Cummins power 13,000+ square inch cleaning area 1,000 bushel grain tank Low compaction Articulated

BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

As combine architecture maxed out at Classes 9 and 10 because of weight, farmers started paying serious attention to the soil compaction benefits of the uniquely radical Tribine prototypes. After four prototype versions, the fifth generation production model Tribines started rumbling out of the Kansas factory this month. By splitting the traditional combine platform into a giant processor on two wheels attached to a giant grain tank on two wheels, the innovative Tribine marks the only fundamental upgrade to combine design since the first self-propelled Fahr combine in 1951. The first selfpropelled was patented in 1888. Tribine employs two engines, a 6.7 litre Cummins for propulsion and a 9.0 litre Cummins to power the massive threshing plant. Clean grain is transferred to the 1,000 bushel grain cart that rides on its own pair of hydraulically driven tires. Designer Ben Dillon decided 20 years ago that combines were getting too heavy. He saw that soil compaction resulted in yield losses

as high as 10 percent. Ironically, the machine responsible for collecting yield is the same machine that is also responsible for much of the yield reduction. So Dillon decided to take a fresh look at grain harvest and soil compaction. Corn best exemplifies the basic compaction challenge with everhigher yields, ever-wider headers and high performance threshing plants. As a result, the grain tank fills quickly, causing that expensive piece of machinery to slow down or even stop. Heavy grain carts and tractors run willy-nilly around the field, trying to keep up with the volume of corn. Many farmers combine with their unload auger running full time, dumping into grain carts pulled alongside. The Tribine strategy is to use the giant 1,000 bushel grain tank to either unload into a 1,000 bushel semi at the headland or manage the cart to minimize trips across the field. Compaction is reduced, and the combine continues working at peak financial efficiency. The large capacity tank serves as a buffer, giving the operator more unload options, said Tribine chief engineer Bob Matousek. “It’s no longer possible to run one big combine with one big grain cart. Today you need two tractors and two big grain carts in the field to keep that one single big combine running,” said Matousek, adding that it’s especially difficult with a 12

You can unload the entire 1,000 bushels in just two minutes if that’s what you want.” Matousek said Tribine has the world’s largest threshing and cleaning system with up to double the cleaning area of other combines. The numbers are pretty impressive.

Rotor diameter is 38 inches and concave wrap is 270 degrees. The cleaning area is more than 13,000 sq. inches. As well, Tribine engineers have developed what they call an advanced pneumatic cleaning system. “We have our own special way of separating the chaff from the straw as it exits the rotor, so we don’t put it all down on the cleaning system. If you want high cleaning capacity, you concentrate on separating straw from grain, not grain from

straw. It’s pretty cool. I can’t tell you how it works today, but you’ll be able to see it at the (U.S.) Farm Progress Show (in Boone, Iowa),” said Matousek. The twin straw choppers blow material out the left and right sides for a total width of 50 feet. To eliminate the need for deflectors, choppers are designed to throw straw to the farthest points rather than to a point near the combine. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

» CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE Matousek said that once you’ve figured out how to spread wide, it’s easy to control the straw for a narrow windrow. As for weight and pounds per sq. inch on the soil, he won’t disclose exact numbers. “Yes, it does look big, but it’s not nearly as heavy as you’d think. We’re no heavier than the big combines other people are making,” he said. “The tires are new. They’re low sidewall and they’re intended to squat as much as six inches under load. It really spreads out the footprint. Our p.s.i. isn’t as low as tracks, but compaction is low.” Weight on the front axle has also been reduced. “On a typical big combine with a wide head and a load of grain, there can be 100,000 pounds on the front axle. We’re not much more than 50,000 lb. on the front axle with a wide head.” O n a n y c e n t re a r t i c u l a t e d machine, the point in the middle where the front half meets the rear half is a highly stressed joint. You can envision that it’s even more traumatic on a machine like the Tribine, with a corn head leveraged way out front and a full load in the tank. Oscillation left-right should be no problem, but the bucking bronco action oscillating up-

down at the joint could be catastrophic. Matousek and his engineers solved the problem, but he won’t give details, other than to imply that people who have seen the system are often perplexed. “As we started looking at bigger

headers, we could see that the weight shifts back and forth and constantly flexes that area of the joint.” Matousek set out to solve that problem. “We have a leveraged joint. We don’t ask a short arm to withstand a lot of bending, but that’s about all I can say today.” The unique twin engine concept is a matter of weight and balance. Ma t o u s e k s a i d i t g i v e s h i m extreme diversity in dialling in the optimal power level individually for propulsion and for threshing. It also allows him to easily install dif-

ferent engines for different models in the future. The propulsion engine spins a hydraulic pump, while the larger engine powers the harvest system mechanically. Together, the two engines produce 590 horsepower. “But I don’t want to go beyond that. I don’t want to teach other people how to do this.” The Tribine is full-time all-wheeldrive with a hydraulic motor mounted in each wheel. To help minimize compaction, the rear cart tires follow the same path as the front combine tires and are the same size. The centre articulating harvester has a tight turning radius because the rear axle actually pivots to help steer the machine. “I compare it to the pivoting front axle on your old Radio Flyer little red wagon. Pick any large combine you want and we’ll turn inside it. We have the geometry with the compound steering working pretty well, so the steering cylinders are actually quite small.” The 500 gallon fuel tank allows 24 hours continuous operation without stopping for fuel. The engines do not require diesel exhaust fluid. The first production model Tribine will debut at the Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa, Aug. 30-Sept. 1. ron.lyseng@producer.com

The Bio Mulcher organic waste composter by Dutch Industries turns dead stock into fertilizer. | ROBIN BOOKER PHOTO ORGANIC COMPOSTER

BioMulcher mixes, heats and grinds to compost carcass Carbon is added to speed decomposition and produce a high nitrogen fertilizer BY ROBIN BOOKER SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Dutch Industries has a solution for large livestock operations that need to dispose of animal carcasses. BioMulcher is a mortality composter for large containment livestock operations such as feedlots and chicken and hog barns. “How it works is, you drop the dead animal in along with a source of carbon and it will grind it, heat it and mix it all in a contained environment,” said company spokesperson Stephen Denzin. “It will allow it to kill some of the pathogens and make a good quality fertilizer.” Carbon has to be added to the composter at a two to one ratio, so a 2,000-pound cow would need 1,000 lb. of carbon for the machine to properly compost the carcass. Some hog barns use the wood chips that come out of their transport trucks, while cattle operators often use the straw they have onhand on their farms. However, Denzin said almost any source of carbon can be used. “The water is all from the carcass,” he said. “A carcass is about 80 percent water, so the moisture is absorbed by the carbon source. The job of the carbon is to absorb the moisture so that it’s not too wet, which helps the bacteria to grow, so then the process is quicker.” The BioMulcher comes in two sizes: • The smaller composter is used for animals up to the size of a pig and comes with a five horsepower motor.

• The larger composter is two feet taller, has a 10 h.p. engine and is used for larger animals such as cattle. “If it’s a cow, you can do one every three to five days. If it’s pigs or chickens or smaller animals, you can actually run the machine on a continuous basis,” Denzin said. “As long as you have less than 500 lb. of mortalities every single day, one machine will do it.” Operators open the door at the front of the machine once it is finished working and then push a button to discharge the compost. “You can take the product and spread it on your land as fertilizer,” Denzin said. “Some people have been looking at bagging and selling it as a product.” He said the compost material often contains 100 lb. of nitrogen per ton of material. The machine disintegrates carcass bones and reduces pathogens by heating the material to 50 to 70 C. It requires a 100 amp electric service. “We’ve done a study for 52 weeks on how much power consumption it will actually use,” Denzin said. ‘If you have the machine running 100 percent of the time at full capacity, it will cost you about a penny and a half per pound of electricity.” Operators usually build a ramp up the back of the machine so that it can be easily loaded with a small tractor or skid steer. The BioMulcher costs approximately $60,000. robin.booker@producer.com

CROP DEMONSTRATION

Peas prolific with plenty of nutrients APT Nutrition’s fertility trial plots showed that a crop with more phosphate was taller and had more pods BY ROBIN BOOKER SASKATOON NEWSROOM

LANGHAM, Sask. — The key to growing a monster pea crop, like APT Nutrition had at its demonstration plot at the recent Ag In Motion farm show, is proactive nutrient management, said company spokesperson Dan Owen. “We wanted this crop to stay green right to the bottom throughout the season. If this crop starts to yellow off, we know that it is cannibalizing itself, moving mobile nutrients from the bottom leafs to fill the pod. This is going to reduce the genetic potential yield of the crop,” said Owen. APT Nutrition had low fertility and high fertility pea crops growing side by side at the farm show. Both trials used the same pea variety and were seeded with a Seed Hawk drill with 12 inch spacing and fertilizer placed an inch below and to the side of the seed. But that is where the similarities between the two trials ended. The low fertility crop had only 20 pounds of phosphate applied and ended up being shorter with fewer pods compared to the high fertility trial. The high fertility trial was fertilized to a soil test to achieve an 80-bushel yield average, including a seed treatment that contained a nutrient and biostimulant package. “We are putting things on like 50 pounds actual phosphate, 30 pounds of potassium, 25 pounds of sulfur and also a micro package in the soil to address any needs of the plant. This site itself is actually boron deficient so we need to manage that boron from the start,” Owen said. Beyond the initial fertilizer application at seeding, APT performed tissue tests each week on old and new plant growth to monitor the plants’ current and future needs. “When we take that new and old growth, we can start to predict

the top of the plant. “New growth tissue tests don’t show what is going to happen in the plant in one week’s time.”

Company hopes pea test plots produce

Guided by the tissue tests, a foliar application was applied that had a nutrition package containing calcium and another biostimulant package to help with nutrient use efficiency and stress management in the crop. “We started tissue testing then and what we found was this crop here required a lot more zinc, man-

ganese and boron than we expected, so we added those nutrients into that spray,” Owen said. APT is harvesting the crop to see if they reached its target yield. The Ag in Motion outdoor farm show was held July 19-21 near Saskatoon. robin.booker@producer.com

GAS CARTRIDGE

Hoseless, fuel powered staple gun allows freedom to move in pasture BY ROBIN BOOKER SASKATOON NEWSROOM

LANGHAM, Sask. — Most of the fencing staple guns on the market have to stay within an air hose length of a compressor, which is not ideal for producers who need to follow fence lines through rough terrain. However, Stockade’s ST400i allows producers to shed the air hose tether while still maintaining the high productivity that staple guns allow. “It’s the world’s first powerdriven, gas drive, hoseless fence stapler,” said Axle Boris of FenseFast, Canadian distributor for Stockade. The nail gun fires up to two-inch

barbed staples and has a fully adjustable depth-to-drive system. “Loosen the nut, adjust it all the way in and the staple will go all the way in,” Boris said. “If the guard is set all the way out, it will leave the staple out about half an inch.” Staples for the Stockade gun come in a 25-staple deck, and the gun will hold up to two decks. It runs on a fuel cell cartridge, which provides 500 to 600 shots per cell. The gun comes with two rechargeable batteries, and each battery can handle 5,000 to 6,000 shots. “When you pull the trigger, a little bit of propellant is injected into the combustion chamber,” Boris said.

“The fan mixes that with air, and then there is a spark that fires and lights that combustion chamber and drives that piston down that in turns drives the hammer, which in turn drives the fastener into your post.” The gun and the propellant canister use radio frequency identification technology, which allows users to test to see how much fuel and battery life remain. A guard where the nail comes out must be suppressed before it can be fired as a safety mechanism. The gun costs $2,100, while a box of staples costs $190, which includes 1,000 staples and two fuel canisters. robin.booker@producer.com

FIELD DAY

Intercropping: is two better than one? Which two? Research trials look at different intercrop pairings to determine which combinations grow best and produce profits BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

SWIFT CURRENT, Sask. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Few farmers have tried it, but Lana Shaw of the South East Research Farm at Redvers, Sask., said the time is right for intercropping to assert itself. Shaw said during an organic field day at the Agriculture Canada Swift Current Research Centre Aug. 9 that that one day intercropping can be scaled up to enable commercial agriculture to include hundreds of thousands of acres of intercrop systems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think this is something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

going to take off.â&#x20AC;? At present, Shaw surmises that 10,000 to 20,000 acres in Saskatchewan are being used for intercropping, which has seen rapid growth from 2,000 to 3,000 acres a few years ago. Intercropping has been regularly practiced in labour intensive production areas around the globe for centuries. However, adapting it to large-scale, mechanized agriculture has proven elusive on the Prairies. Shaw said the practice can present a good option for organic and conventional producers looking to expand net income on a finite

land base. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Farmers are under this crunch of rising input, and demands that you have to use more and more inputs with slimmer and slimmer margins,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are getting off the treadmill and saying, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to find a completely different way of trying to make my limited land base pay my bills and try to have less aggravation while doing it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only thing that will convince a sufficient number of farmers to adapt the complicated practice like intercropping is cash in their pockets.â&#x20AC;? Shawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research for adapting large scale prairie agriculture began in 2012. It focused on identifying compatible intercrops with good market potential. It looks for weak partners like chickpea and flax because both crops are non-competitive with relatively small acreages and have high commodity value. It appears the combination of growing the two together carries benefits, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the key to making intercropping profitable. However, she said thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no one ideal intercrop and each region must develop individualized intercrops that work in their particular soil type and climate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For example, comparing yield of mono crop chickpeas in Redvers

with intercrop chickpea-flax has its limitations due to the fact that chickpeas are not adapted to Redvers as a mono crop,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The more relevant comparison is: how does it compete with a canola mono crop? Can you make more money growing chickpea-flax than you can mono crop canola?â&#x20AC;?

People are getting off the treadmill and saying, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to find a completely different way of trying to make my limited land base pay my bills and try to have less aggravation while doing it. LANA SHAW SOUTH EAST RESEARCH FARM

The research centre is evaluating 17 intercrop pairings, including fababeans, dry beans and various peas with brassicas, as well as Clearfield canola and lentil pairings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen good results in our research trials and anecdotally from the farmers. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saying theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting about 120 to 130 percent of the crops that they would have

grown individually,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing it because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to harvest faster, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saving money on inputs and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re making more money.â&#x20AC;? She said organic producers have been no quicker to take up intercropping than large-scale commercial operations. One reason is the lack of solid information because Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corp. does not specifically insure intercrops. She said for insurance purposes only one of the intercrops is chosen and the yield is converted and submitted as one crop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Basically, the system had not been designed to collect this kind of information so it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been. Any intercrop acres that were insured were being reported as though they were mono crops,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At this point, maybe we need to come up with a better plan.â&#x20AC;? Shaw is attempting to address this through more research, but she also encourages connections between farmers, who are the fastest drivers for intercrop innovation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ones that have been doing this have a lot of information and experience that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re usually willing to share with people.â&#x20AC;? william.dekay@producer.com

INVASIVE SPECIES

Cross-border effort tackles mussel problem Inspectors and sniffer dogs are determined to keep waterways free of the invasive creature BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

BROWNING, Mont./CARDSTON, Alta. — Invasive mussels no larger than a thumbnail now cost the United States $3 billion a year in infrastructure damage and lost recreational resources. Experts estimate an invasion of those same mussels in Alberta would cost $75 million a year. That is a big incentive to keep zebra and quagga mussels from invading the few provinces and U.S. states that remain free of them. It’s also why there is an international effort to keep the mollusks out through mandator y boat inspection and constant vigilance. Standing in a wide spot on the highway between Brow ning, Montana, and Glacier National Park, Ky Zimmerman and Tobias, a Labrador retriever, inspect all watercraft in or towed behind passing vehicles. Montana has a mandatory watercraft inspection system, similar to what was recently implemented in Alberta. Last year, this station checked more than 5,000 boats. Four mussel-fouled craft were found, all bound for the mussel-free waters of the Flathead region. “These mussels are affecting hy d ro p ow e r p l a nt s, e l e c t r i c facilities, municipal water treatment, but they’re also causing the shut down of a lot of local river and lake access sites where these mussels are present,” Zimmerman told the transboundary water and weeds tour Aug. 9. “They’re really disrupting native

wildlife and of course they’re wrecking our fishing incentives because they’re very aggressive filter feeders. They’re actually consuming all of the food resources that are available for our native fish species.” On the Alberta side, provincial aquatic invasive species specialist Kate Wilson said Montana’s fight against the invasive mussels served as a pattern for the provincial program, which began in 2014. Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan are so far free of the invasive mussels, as are Montana, Washington, Wyoming and Idaho. “We are the last remaining drainage that has no zebra or quagga mussels,” said Wilson. “Really, in the West here, we have one shot to really be successful. If we miss the boat, so to speak, we are really in a world of hurt. We are just as much at risk as any of those western

states below us.” The invasive mollusks spread to Lake Winnipeg in 2014, raising the threat of invasion via Alberta’s eastern front. Saskatchewan has no inspection measures in place so most of Alberta’s stations are along the Saskatchewan border. Alberta inspection stations checked 21,500 boats and watercraft last year and found 11 that were carrying mussels, all of them from Ontario and Manitoba. The invasive mussels were first discovered in North America around 1989 and are thought to have arrived in the ballast of large ocean-going cargo ships. Since then, they have steadily spread eastward. The mussels multiply rapidly, adhere to almost anything and clog vessels, pipes and infrastructure. They have no natural predators in North America and can live outside water for up to 30 days. “How far could you drive in a month with your boat? You could drive across the country and back, and stop at all those infested waterways on the way, so that’s really scary,” said Wilson. Any mussel that is attached to a boat is the bad kind, she added, because native mussels cannot adhere. Even dead zebra and quagga mussels must be reported. “We don’t want someone launching their boat with dead mussels e i t h e r, b e c au s e g u e s s w hat ? They’re going to fall off. Someone’s going to find them. They’re going to report them. We’re going to have to institute a really expensive, scary response that was never necessary because that boat should have

been clean before it launched.” Alberta now has three dogs trained to sniff out mussels. They are stationed in places considered at highest risk of mussel transport. Zimmerman said Montana’s dogs take about a minute to identify the invaders. Tw o weeks ago, Tobias was called in to examine a boat that had visited a watershed known to harbour invasive mussels. “We ran Tobias around it and he successfully alerted to zebra and quagga mussels that were inside the live well,” Zimmerman said. “That boat was actually headed towards a lake … just south of Glacier National Park.” As in Alberta, there are no fees for the inspection or disinfection if mussels are found. “We don’t want folks to deliberately avoid our decontamination. We advertise, ‘hey, if you’ve got mussels on your boat, you get a free boat wash.’ ” Disinfection involves hot water and pressure washing. Chemicals are not effective against mussels, which can lock up tightly. They could also damage watercraft. “We don’t want to be liable f o r t h a t ,” s a i d Zimmerman.

AGING HOPPER CARS

Grain car fleet requiring more maintenance Nearly 3,400 of the 8,406 federally owned cars in service are scheduled to be retired in 10 to 20 years BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The amount of maintenance needed to keep Canada’s aging fleet of grain hopper cars in service is increasing. According to a recently released federal report, the number of hopper cars requiring repair rose dramatically between December 2014 and December 2015. In December 2015, the number of so-called “bad order” cars requiring heavy maintenance was listed at more than 800, says the 2015 Government of Canada Hopper Car Report. A year earlier, in December 2014, the number was less than 100. Heavy maintenance cars are those that require more than 24 hours to repair. “The railways (Canadian National Railway and Canadian Pacific Railway) confir med that the increase in bad order statistics was due to the age of the hopper car fleet,” said the report, prepared annually by Transport Canada. The condition of Canada’s federal grain car fleet is an important issue to growers, shippers and railway

companies in Canada. Ottawa bought 13,500 hopper cars from 1972-94 to move prairie grain to export position. By the end of 2015, the number of cars still in active service was listed at roughly 8,406, down marginally from a year earlier.

Transport Canada will continue to monitor bad order cars to determine whether the finding this year is a one year anomaly or a new trend, due to age of the fleet. TRANSPORT CANADA REPORT

The life expectancy of hopper cars in the federal fleet is also a topic of interest to the western Canadian grain industry. All of the active cars in the federal fleet have now been refurbished, and their active service life has been extended to 50 years from the date of purchase. Nonetheless, bulk retirements are approaching, with 40 percent of

the remaining fleet, or nearly 3,400 cars, due for retirement between 2026 and 2027. According to the report, most of the 5,000 cars that are still in service after 2017 will be retired between 2032 and 2035. By 2044, all existing government cars will be removed from service and the fleet will no longer exist. In 2 0 1 5 , T ra n s p o r t Ca na d a inspected a random sample of approximately 330 governmentowned hopper cars. According to the report, the inspections confirmed a bad order rate of 5.5 percent during the 2015 calendar year, more than double the rate reported in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. “Transport Canada will continue to monitor bad order cars to determine whether the finding this year is a one year anomaly or a new trend, due to age of the fleet,” the report said. The annual Government of Canada Hopper Car Fleet Report provides details on the use of the federal hopper car fleet. Among other things, the 2015 report summarizes: • monthly operating reports

received from CN and CP • changes in fleet size, including retirements, destroyed cars and additions • refurbishments and maintenance inspections • information on revenues received from the railways The full report can be viewed online at www.producer.com. brian.cross@producer.com

tween American and Canadian agencies aimed at keeping the mussels at bay. So did Wilson. However, she noted the Alberta program does not have dedicated government funding. Irrigation districts and municipalities, as well as the province, have funded the program to date. barb.glen@producer.com

50 YEARS AGO

Diefenbaker blames labour strikes on salary hike for MPs 50 YEARS AGO: AUG. 25, 1966

FROM THE ARCHIVES

BRUCE DYCK

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: AUG. 28, 1941 The dominion government rejected wheat policy recommendations made by the three western pools. The pools wanted the government to increase the initial price of No. 1 Northern wheat to $1 a bushel, take the wheat carryover off the market and declare the 1941-42 crop year an emergency year.

Former prime minister John Diefenbaker said Parliament’s decision to increase MPs’ salaries to $18,000 a year was to blame for the country’s recent labour unrest. He said strikes at the St. Lawrence Seaway, Air Canada and now the railways were part of a “wage explosion” that was the result of prime minister Lester Pearson’s “timid, diplomatic approach” to labour troubles. If Pearson applied the same “30 percent formula” to the railway crisis that had been used to settle the previous strikes, Diefenbaker said, “it would speed the process toward “the most galloping inflation the country has ever seen.” Western Canadian Liberals called for a 40 cents per bu. increase in International Wheat Agreement prices and an increase in the initial payments for wheat to $1.75 per bu.

25 YEARS AGO: AUG. 29, 1991 U.S. president Franklin Roosevelt vetoed legislation that would have frozen sales of government wheat stocks. Members of the House of Representatives feared that selling the stocks would depress prices, but Roosevelt argued that such a move would be contrary to “sound governmental policy” and to the long-time best interests of both farmers and consumers.

Canada was expected to sign a five-year grain deal in the fall that would commit the Soviet Union to buy at least 25 million tonnes. Grains minister Charlie Mayer was scheduled to fly to Moscow in late October to sign the agreement and hold talks with Soviet agricultural officials.

Farmers loaded 11,637 producer cars in 1990-91, breaking the previous record of 8,011 cars set in 1986-87. The record numbers were expected to heat up the debate over producer cars as grain handling companies complained that farmers who shipped producer cars received favoured treatment in the car allocation process.

10 YEARS AGO: AUG. 24, 2006 The Western Barley Growers Association was trying to set up an agricultural commodity clearinghouse attached to one of Canada’s three major trading exchanges. It would be an independent, privately run risk management tool to deal with some of the issues facing the Canadian Grain Commission’s licensing and bonding system. Alberta agriculture couldn’t find workers, whether it was hog barns, auction marts or cattle slaughter plants. Olymel’s celebrated second shift at its hog slaughter plant in Red Deer had just been cancelled because of the worker shortage. The culprit was Alberta’s highflying economy and soaring wages paid in the province’s oil patch. How times can change. bruce.dyck@producer.com

* Manufactured or rebuilt to OEM specs for all makes/models of combine headers and haybines. * Complete inspection and straightening. * Floor tins, bats & tine bars provided. * Standard or continuous feed models available. * Combine augers have fingers inserted along the entire length of the auger to keep uncontrollable crops feeding smoothly. PEA / CROSS AUGERS Move lightweight, fluffy crops such as peas, mustard, canola and lentils easily & consistently through your draper header with our complete full-length pea auger kits. Auger flighting is kept very close to the ends of the header to help keep the crop from bunching. *Please inquire for available models. HAYBINE ROLLERS Replace your worn & cracked rubber rollers with our wear-resistant steel rollers for durability and at less cost. * Made to OEM specs for all makes/models. * Sold in sets or as single rollers. * Can be set to crimp crops more or less intensely as required which gives a drier result.

PICKING FOR OTHERS

Saskatoon berries not trendy among youth Berry pickers like the Michalycias often come to relive memories of childhood, says owner of Lots Berry Farm BY TENNESSA WILD SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Wally and Darlene Michalycia have been picking berries together for nearly a decade. The retired couple drive out to Lots Berry Farm near Saskatoon every year and pick for those in need. “We picked 15 pails last year and shared them around with seniors,” said Darlene. Darlene’s small stature and Wally’s worn knees don’t deter them from spending hours in the bushes. “The old people can’t get out and get them,” Darlene said. Brad and Robin Hazelwanter, owners of Lots Berry Farm, said they have noticed a trend out in the field. “There’s a lot of elderly people, and they pick for other elderly people,” said Robin. The Hazelwanters share the nostalgia and pleasure of picking with their clientele and frequently pick with them. “Our clients are elderly, and we’re close to elderly and they come out here because it brings back memories from when they were kids and they were out doing it with their parents and family adventures and things of that nature,” Brad said. “We have those same memories, so we’ll pick too and throw it into their buckets.” Brad has noticed fewer pickers over the last few years. “It’s just because the younger generation may not be as interested in saskatoons as they would be in a strawberry or raspberry,” he said. Robin said the season for saskatoon picking is also short, which means the general public easily misses it. The Hazelwanters recognize that

saskatoons aren’t for everybody, but said they are worth trying. Studies show the berries are rich in antioxidants and anthocyanins. Both properties are beneficial for the elderly because they aid in reducing age-associated oxidative stress and improve memor y, learning and cognitive functions, according to the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. The Michalycias said seniors are happy to get the berries. “You know older people, they know exactly what to do with them,”

Darlene said. “They were making perogies and pies and we’re glad to share them around.” Wally said they immediately receive calls requesting more orders when they start their deliveries. Many of the seniors wouldn’t receive the berries any other way. “If they can’t get out to pick, we pick and bring fruit to them,” said Darlene. Wally said Lots Berry Farm is a great location for seniors to pick. They can park their vehicles right

up next to the bushes, and the rows are level, wide and clean. “We’ll be back again,” he said. He and Darlene had already picked a dozen pails this year and planned to continue as long as there’s demand. Anne Kucherhan and Florence Heintz, residents at a seniors’ living complex in Saskatoon, both received berries this year from the Michalycias.

Kucherhan has received berries for more than three years, and Heintz received her first delivery this year. “In fact, I was downtown sitting and wondering how I could get a hold of some saskatoons, and I couldn’t believe it when they stopped here and they had saskatoons,” Heintz said. She grew up in Dalmeny, Sask., and remembers going out to her uncle’s farm to pick with her family. “He had bushes all around his dwelling, and every summer we’d get washtubs and (pick),” she said. Heintz said she will enjoy receiving the berries as long as they continue to be offered. “It is absolutely awesome because I couldn’t go and get them. I couldn’t go and pick anymore,” she said. newsroom@producer.com

WETLAND RESEARCH

Botanical ecosystem provides valuable information BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

OLDS, Alta. — A botanical garden in the middle of a semi-arid climate is a treat for visitors, but it’s also an important research venue. In 2013, Olds College established a 20 acre wetland with 19 ponds on a former horse pasture to learn more about how these ecosystems function. The area is a living laboratory for students and the public to demonstrate wetland and land management. Its goal is to create a living model for rural and urban water conservation and recycling. “It is helpful for landowners who are interested in wetland areas and want to keep them healthy,” said Toby Williams at the Olds College Centre for Innovation, which manages the site. Water is pumped in, and runoff from the campus flows into the area. No water comes from the college feedlot or barns so it is relatively free of major contaminants. Wetland friendly plants like wild rice, native plants and cattails were

planted. Before long, ducks, geese and other waterfowl moved in, along with insects, frogs, minnows, muskrats, beaver and deer. “They are all the product of the evolution of a new ecosystem,” said Jane Reksten, manager of botanic gardens and greenhouses at the college. “It is amazing how they will populate.” Water is circulated through a series of ponds that have been planted with different types of vegetation designed to remove contaminants. The water ends up in a final pond where it is used to irrigate the gardens and the prairie turf research centre on the east side of campus. Sensors in the ponds monitor levels of chloride, electrical conductivity, dissolved ox ygen, nitrates, oxygen reduced potential, pH, turbidity and temperature. Working with partners such as Ducks Unlimited, demonstration

projects show what can be done to clean up water and encourage growth of a new ecosystems. One demonstration project has installed floating islands made from a variety of materials, which create an environment in which key microbes thrive and help clean water. The islands also grow plants on top to remove contaminants from the water. The college is also propagating native wetland plants and collecting seeds from a thriving crop of wild rice. Researchers were not sure if the crop would grow in central Alberta, but so far it has been a success. To prevent plants from going wild and spreading, ever ything is chopped down when the ponds freeze in winter. “Each of our ponds is like its own ecosystem and we do not want the plants spreading from pond to pond,” Williams said.

One project examines how microbes help clean contaminants from the water

OLD-FASHIONED RIDE

HERD EXPANSION

Beef herd grows slightly Producers retained 4.5 percent more heifers and had four percent more calves BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

The Canadian beef herd has shown a small expansion of 1.3 percent compared to last summer, making it the first year-over-year increase since 2012. The Statistics Canada livestock inventory report for July 1, 2016, reported growth in cattle and hog sectors but a decline for the sheep business. The beef herd is at 13.2 million head on 81,465 operations. Cattle producers retained an extra 4.5 percent more heifers for breeding. There are an estimated 641,800 heifers and 3.8 million cows. The cow number is up a third of a percent. In total, there are 4.3 million calves on the ground, up nearly four percent from the same time last year. This is the first year-overyear increase since July 2005. However, some of those replacement heifers may end up in feedlots in the fall, said Brian Perillat, a Canfax market analyst. “Our data shows on our cattle-onfeed report, heifer placements are quite high, but during the summer when placements are small, an increase in heifer placements can make a big percentage change,” he said. “We are just not growing here in Canada. Our cow slaughter has been higher than a year ago and heifer retention is increasing but only slightly. It is keeping everything balanced.” Alberta remains the largest beef producing province at 5.37 million. It

grew by one percent. That includes cows, calves and dairy animals. British Columbia grew by 4.5 percent, increasing the provincial herd from 660,000 to 690,000. Manitoba grew by 3.7 percent, so the herd is now at 1.25 million. Saskatchewan grew by 1.1 percent, increasing the herd to 2.745 million. Eastern numbers were flat or lower since last year. Exports decreased 10.6 percent to 433,700 head for all classes of cattle during the first half of 2016 compared with the same period in 2015. This could change when fall sales start up and more feeders are offered for sale. However, there is plenty of grass and a less favourable market this fall, so sales could be delayed. There are 13.5 million hogs on 7,035 farms. Ontario showed the most growth, increasing by 3.14 percent. The Prairies varied from 1.3 to 1.7 percent more hogs. There are 1.2 million sows and gilts, up .7 percent from July 1, 2015. Hog slaughter increased in Canada in the first six months of 2016, up 1.3 percent from the same period in 2015 to 10.6 million head. Canada exported 2.9 million hogs in the first half of 2016, down .1 percent from the same period in 2015. The dairy herd grew slightly and is up from 1.815 million to 1.891 million. The sheep breeding flock decreased with 2.1 percent fewer ewes and 4.2 percent replacement lambs. Market lamb numbers were down 3.3 percent from last year. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

MANITOBA PLANS

Ambitious expansion goal excites cattle industry BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Manitoba’s agriculture minister surprised many by setting lofty growth expectations for the province’s cow herd, but the cattle industry couldn’t be more happy. Minister Ralph Eichler set an unofficial goal of increasing Manitoba’s beef-cow herd from 440,000 to 750,000 over the next decade. “I know it’s ambitious … but I’d rather set my goal a little higher,” Eichler said in late July at a field tour north of Brandon. “I see it taking probably eight or nine years. Maybe 10.” The minister’s comments thrilled

members of the Manitoba Beef Producers. But Brian Lemon, MBP general manager, said it’s too early to speculate on whether the number is realistic or not. “It’s always nice to have a number to focus on. What’s the right number? I don’t know,” he said. “We’re not focused on a number at this point. We’re just excited to see the minister is talking about growing our industry.” Now that the lofty figure of 750,000 cows is out there, Manitoba’s beef sector must confront the tricky bit: how to make it happen. “There’s probably opportunity for both government and industry

to work collaboratively to get this done,” Lemons said. “I don’t think just the government or just the industry should be looked (upon) to solve it all.” Lemon said the first step would likely be a meeting with Eichler to discuss the expansion effort. A wider public forum to include the ideas of producers and other industry players is a possibility. “That might be one option,” Lemon said. “It’s going to take the input of a lot of people that understand not just the production, but understand the slaughter issue, transportation, understand environmental issues… and the right

regulatory environment.” If leaders of Manitoba’s beef sector intend to grow the industry they first should know why it isn’t growing. Why isn’t the industry attracting new entrants and why aren’t mid-sized farms becoming large cow-calf operations? “We’re looking forward to sitting down with the province and hashing out what the barriers have been … in the last little while,” Lemon said. Manitoba’s cow population has declined from 614,000 in 2008 to 440,000 in 2016, but the industry is now better positioned to expand. There is a federally certified beef

processing plant in Carman, Man., capable of slaughtering 200 head per day. There are also programs in place to help with financial stability, such as the Western Livestock Price Insurance Program and a hay insurance program in Manitoba. The province has also committed to building a drainage channel at the north end of Lake Manitoba, which should alleviate the risk of flooded pastureland around the lake. It’s hard to know if those efforts will spark a turnaround, but there are signs of life in the province’s cattle sector, said Heinz Reimer, MBP president. robert.arnason@producer.com

HEREFORD EVENT

Herefords in spotlight at Alberta cattle show Youths spend week learning about all aspects of the cattle industry BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

OLDS, Alta. — Young people with an enthusiasm for Herefords gather every summer to learn more about the breed and leadership. About 150 young people from New Brunswick to British Columbia attended this year’s Canadian Junior Hereford Association Bonanza in Olds, which was held Aug. 10-13. They spent their days working with cattle from the nose to the tail. About 270 head of cattle were shown. Many belonged to the youngsters, who travelled overland to bring them to the Olds fairgrounds for a week of learning about marketing, sharing projects such as writing and photography, public speaking, cattle handling, grooming techniques and showmanship. “You learn agriculture skills and meeting other people who share the same passion,” said Cassandra Gorrill of Lyndsay, Ont., who is president of the Canadian Junior Hereford Association and has attended every Bonanza since 2008. The 21-year-old animal science student from the University of Guelph comes from a polled Hereford family. The junior program has given her the chance to be a beef ambassador, which included a trip to the World Hereford Forum in Uruguay in April. The Hereford program started in 1980 and is the longest running junior program in Canada. Scholarships starting at $500 are available through the association and the Keith Gilmore Foundation, which offers a $10,000 Keith Gilmore Prize to post graduates and veterinary medicine students showing beef cattle innovation. Juniors from three to 21 had a chance in the open shows to show females and bulls. Families could also join to show groups of three. Jacey Massey of Strathmore, Alta., showed the grand champion female, while grand champion bull went to Lexie O’Connor of Vibank, Sask.

BEEF INDUSTRY CONFERENCE

Official proud to serve Canadian beef industry Dave Solverson has stepped down as CCA president but said retirement doesn’t mean he will step away from beef politics BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

A desire to be involved in beef politics took Dave Solverson from his ranch at Camrose, Alta., to the presidency of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association. He completed his two-year term last March and this spring he was named to Alberta’s top 50 most influential people of 2016 list by Alberta Venture magazine. “To be recognized as influential, well, a lot of things happened under my term of president but it was because I was with a very influential organization,” he said during an interview at the Canadian Beef Industry conference held in Calgary Aug. 9-11. Solverson works with his brother, Ken, and daughter, Joanne, to run Woodwinds Ranch, which includes about 800 commercial cows and a large grain farming operation. The farm has been in his family since the 1940s. The family was involved in the purebred Hereford business for almost 30 years. By the early 1980s, they had a chance to expand the land base and switched to a commercial operation.

To be recognized as influential, well, a lot of things happened under my term of president but it was because I was with a very influential organization. DAVE SOLVERSON FORMER CANADIAN CATTLEMEN’S ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT

“I got tired of the politics of the purebred side, which is kind of ironic because I got involved with beef politics,” he said. He was elected as a delegate to Alberta Beef Producers in the mid 1990s and then sat out for a few years. He missed being in the inner circle and joined again and was elected to the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association in 2005. At the same time, the family expanded the herd during the height of the BSE crisis when

markets collapsed. They opted to buy bred cows for $600 and sell off the heifers. “It was a different business model then. You buy a bred cow for 600 bucks and you could sell a feeder heifer for $1,000,” he said. When he joined the CCA he was interested in trade and beef politics but he had no plans to climb the leadership ladder. “I had no aspirations to be president. I seemed to gain the respect of my colleagues and I was a long ranking Alberta director.”

It was a proud period of his life, in which he travelled to Ottawa, Washington, D.C., and Asia while representing the Canadian industry. “That is two years of my life that was amazing,” he said. It was also during his tenure that the long standing dispute over mandatory country-of-origin labelling was resolved. He was also fortunate to be in office during a period of recordsetting cattle prices that raised optimism throughout the industry. “The incredible run up in prices was all in my term,” he said. Producers join these organizations as volunteers and gain considerable confidence as they meet prime ministers and other influential people in the trade. “I never was intimidated by politicians. I always respected them as people and doing the best job they can but I did not hold them in such esteem that I couldn’t talk to them,” he said. He will continue to serve as pastpresident but eventually he faces retirement and heads back to the ranch as an elder statesman in his industry. “Trade really interests me and if there is a place for me to once again

represent the beef industry, I would help,” he said. He is also looking at the future where his daughter, an agricultural lender and young mother, is taking a bigger role at the ranch. His idea of retirement may be to scale back the cow herd of Hereford, Simmental and Angus cows. “I think I will retire with a couple hundred cows. To downsize from 800 would seem pretty easy,” he said. Meanwhile, when it comes to the issue of young people taking over in the beef sector, Solverson said in his community he has seen more young farmers involved in the grain side and more involvement with purebred cattle. “It gives me some good feeling when I go to any purebred event because the seedstock industry seems to have done a better job of engaging their young people,” he said. While with ABP he was finance chair and served as the Canadian Agri-Food Trade Alliance representative. He has served as chair of the CCA animal care and foreign trade committees. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

CETA TRADE

Canadian beef exports to EU in limbo over E. coli dispute A proposed CETA trade deal won’t benefit the cattle industry if requirements relating to food safety are not resolved BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

If differences of opinion over food safety practices are not resolved, the big promises of a new European market for Canadian beef may be a pipe dream. The Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement is close to being signed but issues over carcass washes to remove bacteria like E. coli are points of contention behind the scenes. Frustration was obvious at a recent Canadian Cattlemen’s Association meeting on foreign trade because some European beef has arrived here but Canada struggles to meet the EU requirements. “We have to have meaningful access before CCA is supportive of this agreement,” said Dan Darling, president of the association during the Canadian Beef Industry conference held in Calgary Aug. 9-11. The deal promises a duty free access quota and if producers choose to raise cattle without growth promoting implants, disputes over technical issues might not make trade worthwhile. “If conditions are too costly and eat up any margins, then it would not be worth it,” said John Masswohl of the CCA. Canada uses products like citric acid and a form of vinegar among a series of steps to remove pathogens at the packing plant. The Europeans would prefer a third party, peer reviewed approach to

show these antimicrobial treatments are effective. “They certainly seem to have a bias as to where the data comes from. They tend not to give a

whole lot of credence to data that comes from the companies that manufacture the product or the company that uses the product, which is really all we have,” Masswohl said. Government representatives said they understand the frustration. “The government is working quite closely with industry to try to alleviate some of these technical issues,” said Doug Forsyth of Agriculture Canada. “Quite frankly, when the agreement does come into place, these technical issues need to be resolved so Canadian producers and exporters can take advantage of the CETA when it comes into play,” he said.

CCA official support for CETA is contingent on technical conditions approval, so it is economical to conduct business. The CCA also wants reciprocity because European beef is allowed into Canada now, but very little has actually landed. Some European exporters have said they are willing to accept equivalent standards but EU regulators are concerned over consumer backlash about the different approach to food safety. In Canada and the United States, it is the responsibility of the packer to produce the safest food possib l e, w h e re a s t h e Eu ro p e a n s believe it is up to the consumer to

properly cook it. “As long as it was acceptable under the Canadian Food Inspection Agency system, it should be acceptable under here. That has always been our preferred Canadian approach but not the way the European Commission wants to do it,” Masswohl said. Canada needs allies to support its position. Great Britain had agreed with Canada, but its decision to quit the EU has raised uncertainty. “We need to find allies who would like to see science actually prevail,” said Dennis Laycraft, executive vice-president of the CCA. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE

Farms should develop antibiotic protocols for livestock ANIMAL HEALTH

JOHN CAMPBELL, DVM, DVSC

ealth Canada has recently proposed changes to the Food and Drug Regulations related to antimicrobial resistance. These proposals will affect few beef producers, unless they are buying antimicrobials from outside the country through the ownuse importation rule. However, governments and society in general have expressed concerns about the dangers of antimicrobial resistance, and the use of antimicrobials in livestock is coming under more scrutiny. Veterinarians who work with intensive beef feeding operations are aware of the risks of antimicrobial resistance, and most feedlots will have clear antimicrobial treatment protocols in place that provide specific guidance around antimicrobial use. Treatment protocols provide case definitions for when animals should receive antimicrobials and when they should not. They also specify the dosage, administration and duration of therapy for each disease diagnosis. The protocols are embedded in the computer software programs used chute side and provide specific instructions to feedlot work-

ers and a database for treatment records. Unfortunately, these type of protocols have not reached as far in the cow-calf industry. Cow-calf producers tend to use fewer antimicrobials and there are low levels of resistance in most cow-calf herds. However, some cow-calf producers may reach for whatever antimicrobial is available in their refrigerators or saddle bags with no directions from a veterinarian. Yet veterinarians can develop a guide for antimicrobial use on cowcalf herds similar to those used in feedlots. These guides can help determine which antimicrobial should be used in different situations.

Health Canada has classified antimicrobials we use into different categories, based on their importance in human medicine. The livestock industry does not use many of the antimicrobials classified as high or very high importance to human medicine. Most antimicrobials used in beef cattle are in the low importance category, but it is important to understand the differences when choosing antimicrobial therapy for cattle. One possible reason for treatment failure is a wrong diagnosis. Antibiotics are only useful in treating bacterial infections. Diseases caused by viral infections, nutritional deficiencies, toxins, and parasites are not going to respond

to antibiotic therapy. For example, a case of viral diarrhea in a beef calf might be treated with antibiotics if an accurate diagnosis has not been made. Unfortunately, this viral disease will not respond to antibiotic therapy. The phrase “Not all bugs need drugs” has been coined to promote appropriate antimicrobial use in human medicine and it also holds true for livestock diseases. A veterinarian can help in the choice of the correct therapy. Accurate treatment records and individual animal identification are necessary to avoid antimicrobial residues and to make decisions regarding additional therapy, should it be necessary. There are some good software

programs that will help with this, but written records on paper can suffice. I have seen outbreaks of pneumonia in young calves in which treatment records have not been appropriately kept, which makes decisions around additional therapy difficult. We are fortunate to have valuable tools such as antibiotics to help us treat and prevent disease in our animals. We want to preserve their usefulness and be good stewards of antibiotics to minimize the development of antibiotic resistance in animals and people. John Campbell is head of Large Animal Clinical Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan’s Western College of Veterinary Medicine.

FOG FEVER

Cattle illness warning issued BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Several cattle in Alberta and Saskatchewan have died recently from fog fever, otherwise known as bovine atypical interstitial pneumonia. The illness occurs when cattle are put into lush pasture after coming off dry pasture. The typtophan in rapidly growing pasture grasses converts in the animals’ rumen, leading to sudden onset, minimal coughing and either death or dramatic improvement within a few days. Barry Yaremcio, beef and forage specialist with Alberta Agriculture, said fog fever is uncommon, and treatment options are limited other than to avoid putting adult cattle into lush pasture. Calves are not affected. Fog fever can occur five to 10 days after the pasture change. Mild cases can go unnoticed. Severely affected cattle breathe through their mouths, extend their tongues and drool. Yaremcio said feeding monensin or lasalocid to cows before turning them into lush pasture may prevent fog fever, but those treatments have no effect after onset of symptoms. barb.glen@producer.com

Land prices may not follow crops

Markets marked time last week, weighing the odds of when the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates. Crude oil rose on hopes OPEC discussions will lead to a production freeze. The TSX composite fell 0.4 percent, the Dow fell 0.1 percent, the S&P 500 dropped 0.01 percent and the Nasdaq was up 0.1 percent.

Canadian land prices have risen slower than those in the U.S. but are still on a steady climb

While U.S. farmland values are beginning to slump because of a drop in crop prices, Farm Credit Canada thinks western Canadian farmland might escape a similar fate. Prairie land prices didn’t shoot up as much as in parts of the U.S. Midwest, so they might not need to fall at all. “I think we’re in a fairly stable, balanced position,” said Craig Klemmer, FCC’s senior agricultural economist. “A lot of it has been playing catchup at most.” Klemmer said FCC expects Canadian farmland prices to slow the rate of increases seen in recent years, but values should still rise in the rest of 2016 and in 2017. Rabobank Food and Agribusiness Research recently released a report called The Land Value Wave Dips, in which it predicts U.S. farmland rental rates will slip in the next year or face bigger declines in coming years. “The cost of renting land remains sticky and unsustainably high,” says the report. “If rental costs remain sticky at unsustainable levels through the 2017-18 growing period, individual land assets face the threat of much deeper devaluation as nutrient and crop protection programs are cut and abandonment increases.” The term “sticky” refers to the tendency of land rents to rise in good times but resist decline when financial conditions get worse. While the Rabobank repor t focuses on land rent in the U.S., it indirectly but closely reflects the underlying price of farmland. A rental rate reveals the price somebody is willing to pay for a piece of land and still receive a return. Farmers in the U.S. rent a far higher proportion of their land than is common in Canada, where most farmers own most of the land they farm. In the U.S. it is not unusual for farmers to rent half or most of their land. Farmland prices are hard to evaluate in Canada because so little changes hands. Klemmer said that in Canada only about two percent of land changes hands in any year. U.S. farmers have been hammered by commodity prices far below those common in the 200712 bull market. Land prices shot higher in those years, and rents followed them upward. Now that crop prices have slumped, many farmers find themselves dropping to break-even levels or even into losses, so high land rents aren’t sustainable. If rents aren’t reduced, farmers might back away from future rental

agreements, Rabobank says. In Canada the situation might be different not just because of the slower rate of land increases, Klemmer said, but also because some of Canada’s crops have

remained profitable. “We’ve been insulated by the Canadian dollar,” said Klemmer. “A 77 cent Canadian dollar definitely helps.” Also, crops like some pulses and canola have been generally profitable. And rental rates aren’t such a drag on Canadian farmer profitability due to the lower proportion of rented land by Canadian farmers compared to their U.S. counterparts. Canadian farmers face their tough land value challenges with buying and financing farmland. But most farmers only occasionally pick up a quarter section, so

even high-priced land can be “cross-subsidized” by the rest of the farm if values dip. “We still have a very healthy land market,” said Klemmer. “We’ll likely continue to see land prices going up.” ed.white@producer.com

Cervus Equipment Corp. posted net income of $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2016, up from a net loss of $32.2 million for the same period in 2015. “Cervus realized the benefits of cost reductions initiated in 2015 as reduced expenses mitigated the impact of the challenging markets on our western Canadian commercial and industrial and Saskatchewan transportation operations,” said company head Graham Drake. Cervus reduced its inventory by $52.3 million, or 14 percent. Sales of new equipment were $95.2 million, down eight percent.

TAX STRATEGIES

Assessing merits of corporate vs. personal land ownership TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS

COLIN MILLER

roducers who buy land often ask me whether they should purchase it personally or in a company. Professionals used to advise farmers to own their land personally, which made good sense. Owning land personally provides great flexibility when it comes to estate and succession planning and allows producers to use special tax rules such as the capital gains exemption. However, the current price of land means the cash flow needed to finance land purchases is a lot more than in the past. Knowing this, it might make more sense to own land in a corporation. The main reason is tax deferral.

Income earned in a corporation from farming operations is generally taxed at a lower rate than similar income taxed in personal hands. Principle payments on debt are not deductible for income tax purposes. This means the payments for this debt are made with after tax dollars. Therefore, if land is bought and financed personally at a personal tax rate of 30 percent, only 70 percent of the net earnings from operations could be used to pay down debt. Let’s compare this to a corporation. With earnings of less than $500,000, a corporate farm would likely be paying tax from 10.5 percent in Manitoba to 13.5 percent in Alberta. Therefore, the owners

have at least 86.5 percent of their net earnings to service the debt compared to the 70 percent if they owned the land personally. You can see the cash flow savings that can be realized by financing land in a corporation. However, there are issues that might not make this the best strategy. It is more difficult and costly to get the land out of the corporation than it is to put it into the corporation. This may become a problem if you want to to split up land between farming children in the future. Furthermore, land in a corporation does not qualify for the $1 million lifetime capital gains exemption.

Selling it out of the corporation could result in more tax, but there are strategies to avoid this, such as selling the shares of the corporation rather than the land itself. An additional disadvantage for corporate owned land is that it does not have the same protection from potential creditors as does personally owned land. If the land is held personally and the operations in your company faced a lawsuit, the land has an extra layer of protection than does land owned directly by the corporation. Further to this point, it may not make sense to own your personal home but have the corporation own the land it sits on. The principle residence exemp-

tion can be used on a house and a portion of the land that is owned personally. This allows you to shelter any capital gain you have on your home from tax. You will not get this exemption if it is owned in the corporation. There are many factors to consider and a wide variety of options to make the best plan for your situation. It is important to consult with a professional when deciding how to structure your land ownership. Riley Honess and Ebony Verbonac of KPMG contributed to this article.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Buhler profit up from sale prices on inventory SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A powerful combination. NEW!

Buhler Industries posted a profit of $3 million in the third quarter, up from $300,000 in the same period last year. Revenue for the quarter ending June 30 was $87.1 million, up from $79.1 million last year. The company produces tractors under the Versatile name and other equipment under brands such as Farm King and Ezee-On. Gross profit declined as the company increased sales discounts in the highly competitive market, which is suffering as farmers experience low commodity prices. Slower production reduced efficiencies in manufacturing. Most significantly, the weak Canadian dollar has made equipment parts bought in U.S. dollars more expensive. Sales for the rest of the year are expected to be slightly off 2015 levels on sluggish demand for agricultural equipment. Profitability for the year is projected to improve over 2015 levels, mostly because of sales of surplus assets. Inventory levels are being reduced to reflect the lower demand. This will help increase cash flow. Research and development spending in the year to date was $6.3 million, similar to the previous year. “Management believes this strategy will maintain the company’s competitive position in the marketplace.” The Winnipeg-based, Russianowned company has factories in Morden and Winnipeg in Manitoba, Vegreville, Alta., Fargo, North Dakota, Salem, South Dakota and Willmar, Minnesota.
