MERGERS

Fertilizer giants in merger talks Trickle down effect seen as slight BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The potential merger of two fertilizer giants will have no impact on product availability or prices, says an industry analyst. PotashCorp and Agrium announced last week they were holding preliminary discussions about merging the two Canadian companies. Farm groups such as the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan have expressed concern that a merger would lead to less competition in the fertilizer market. Glen Buckley, chief economist with NPK Fertilizer Advisory Service, doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe that will be the case. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From the standpoint of the Saskatchewan farmer, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see any difference at all. There is no market impact on this at all,â&#x20AC;? he said. Buckley would have been concerned if PotashCorp and Agrium had a lot of overlapping assets. SEE MERGER TALKS, PAGE 5

TRADE

News of a breakthrough in a seven-year long canola dispute with China has analysts rethinking export numbers, prices and basis levels for the commodity. Canadian Prime Minister Justin

Trudeau and Chinese Premier Li Ke q i a n g a n n o u n c e d d u r i n g Trudeauâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visit to China that a permanent solution to the blackleg disease issue is days or weeks away. November futures prices immediately jumped $10 per tonne on Aug. 31 and ended the day up $7 per tonne.

Derek Squair, president of AgriTrend Marketing, quickly bumped up the China export number in his canola supply and demand chart to 4.3 million tonnes from 3.2 million tonnes. He expects basis levels that had widened to $43 under from $15 under a month ago to ease back down.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll narrow right back in there (but) maybe not back to $15 until after Christmas,â&#x20AC;? said Squair. A long-term deal has yet to be signed but news that one is pending has calmed nerves in the canola trade. SEE CANOLA RESTRICTIONS, PAGE 4

TERMINAL DEDUCTIONS

Growers take aim at canola dockage fees BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

China isn’t the only one complaining about canola dockage. Some growers are miffed that they get deducted for dockage on their delivery tickets and pay for cleaning while grain companies top up the dockage before sending the canola overseas. Ernest Bittner, who farms near Carrot River, Sask., says the canola he delivers to his local elevator typically contains one to 1.5 percent dockage. Dockage includes items like chaff from the plant, dust, wild oats, small seeds and seedpods. He doesn’t understand why he gets deducted for that material when a shipment is considered commercially clean if it contains up to 2.5 percent dockage. “I believe the grain companies are holding the farmers ransom,” said Bittner. The average dockage on a canola shipment to China is two percent, according to the Canadian Grain Commission. “Why is the dockage higher than what we take to the elevator?” said Bittner. He is mad that buyers pay grain companies for dockage, while the farmer is penalized for it. Especially when growers are paying through basis levels to have their canola cleaned. Bittner isn’t the only disgruntled farmer. The issue has been raised in the Agriville commodity marketing online forum and with groups like the Saskatchewan Canola Devel-

opment Commission. The Western Grain Elevator Association deferred comment on the dockage issue to the Canola Council of Canada. Brian Innes, vice-president of government relations with the council, said he understands grower angst surrounding the issue. “I’ve heard that a lot. I think that’s a legitimate concern,” he said. But he balks at the suggestion that exporters are getting paid for dockage while growers are penalized. Dockage is one of the many quality parameters negotiated between buyers and sellers in determining the price of a shipment of canola. “Exporters are getting paid the value that their customers put on their shipments in the same way that growers are getting paid the value of what they deliver,” said Innes. Buyers are willing to accept a certain amount of dockage because they realize canola moves through a bulk handling system. It is not a specialty commodity. Dockage levels are determined at the grain elevator by a grain company employee who uses a combination of hand sieves and a prescribed number of shakes to figure out what percent of a sample is dockage. Innes didn’t have any numbers on how much dockage on average is contained in farmer deliveries but he thought it would be higher than what Bittner is reporting. “I would say that’s low,” he said. “That grower needs to talk to a lot more growers to understand that dockage is not always delivered at

that rate.” The Canadian Grain Commission does not track dockage levels in producer deliveries or in what arrives at the port. Commission spokesperson Remi Gosselin said levels will vary depending on variables such as weather and how a producer sets his combine. “Most combines now operate in a way that dockage will come in at somewhere around one to two percent,” he said. Grain companies either clean the canola at their primary elevators or at their port terminals, depending on their infrastructure. They use cylinder cleaners and screener sieve cleaners in combination with controlled air to isolate the unwanted material. Innes said there is a misconception about dockage being added back into the shipment. Canola seeds are much smaller than other grains such as wheat, which makes separating them from the dockage material more difficult, especially when there can be a lot of variability in the size and shape of canola seeds. The result is that there can be up to 10 percent of canola seeds lost in the cleaning process, which would amount to 6,000 tonnes on a 60,000 tonne vessel. “When you’ve done your cleaning for the dockage, you try to capture as much canola as you can from what was initially cleaned out. It’s that, that is added back in,” said Innes. sean.pratt@producer.com

There’ll be a dark cloud hanging over Lee Egland’s farm as he harvests this year’s crop. The Eastend, Sask., farmer recently received a cheque for about $4,600 from the Canadian Grain Commission in Winnipeg. Cheques in Egland’s mailbox are normally a welcome sight. But not this time. The CGC cheque — issued through the grain commission’s payment protection program — is the only compensation he will receive for a 2015 grain sale that should have grossed nearly $60,000. “It’s just like a kick in the teeth,” said Egland, who has a problem with Naber Specialty Grains Limited (NSGL) and with the grain commission. “Is that not their (the grain commission’s) job? “They’re supposed to be providing security for farmers, aren’t they? “I think they should be doing a bit of diligence to ensure … that everything’s above board.” The grain commission’s payment protection plan is intended to protect farmers against financial losses in cases where grain is sold to an insolvent company. The CGC is responsible for issuing licences to grain companies. As part of the process, grain companies are required to post bonds or other types of financial security, which are held in trust. If the grain company goes belly up, the CGC uses the security to settle the company’s outstanding accounts with farmers. But in the case of Naber, the program failed to live up to expectations. Last week, the commission issued a news release confirming that farmers with eligible claims against NSGL would receive 14 cents on every dollar owed. The grain commission has acknowledged that the value of security posted by NSGL was lower than it should have been. Commission officials said there is evidence to suggest that the company provided inaccurate information about the value of grain inventories and producer liabilities in the months leading up to NSGL’s bankruptcy. Unless accurate information is provided by the licensee, the CGC has no way of knowing how big a company’s security bond should be. Remi Gosselin, manager of corporate information services with the CGC, said the NSGL case has been turned over to RCMP to determine if criminal charges will be laid. “We referred this item to the RCMP because of the magnitude of Naber Specialty Grain’s outstanding liabilities to producers at the time of receivership and

also as a result of the extent to which those liabilities may have been understated in reports to the grain commission,” Gosselin said. Commission officials also said a number of other issues prompted CGC to contact police. Those issues included: • delays in NSGL providing documentation to producers when restructuring efforts got underway; • irregularities observed by the court-appointed receiver; • failure by NSGL to stop taking grain deliveries after it was ordered to do so by the commission. Producers like Egland are tallying their losses and questioning whether the CGC’s payment protection program should also be held to account.

TOTAL ELIGIBLE FARM CLAIMS AGAINST NSGL TOTALLED

$1.05 M According to the grain commission, total eligible farm claims against NSGL were in the range of $1.05 million. That does not include farmer claims that were rejected by the commission because they did not fall within specific timelines established in the protection program. Security posted by NSGL was valued at $150,000. “I’m pissed with the grain commission,” said Egland, whose father also lost more than $20,000 in a separate sale to NSGL. “We keep hearing … (NSGL) didn’t provide the proper paperwork but don’t they (the CGC) have auditors?” CGC officials said primary producers should always take steps to limit their risk when delivering grain to a licensed grain company. The CGC’s payment protection plan is designed to reduce farmer risk but it is not a guarantee, they added. Details on the CGC’s payment protection plan can be viewed online at bit.ly/2c196Jw along with five steps that producers can take to reduce risk. brian.cross@producer.com

RESTRICTIONS ON HOLD » CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “Once it does get settled the whole market will breathe a sigh of relief and get back to business and just make it a much more efficient market,” he said. China first implemented blackleg restrictions in 2009 and the issue has been causing indigestion among canola exporters ever since. The latest source of heartburn occurred in February when China said it would implement a new policy on April 1 requiring shipments to contain less than one percent dockage, which is far less than the Canadian Grain Commission’s standard of 2.5 percent. The implementation date was later extended to Sept. 1, but that has now been put on hold as well while negotiators attempt to hash out a long-term solution to the matter. “This is a significant step towards resolution of this long-standing issue,” Patti Miller, president of the Canola Council of Canada, said in a news release. She applauded the efforts of Trudeau, trade minister Chrystia Freeland and agriculture minister Lawrence MacAulay. “Their timely interventions mean that a science-based solution is in sight and that Canada’s most valuable export to China can continue,” said Miller. Government officials are providing no hints as to what changed to spur movement toward a resolution to the longstanding trade irritant. Squair said a rumour is circulating around the trade that there will be a compromise on the allowable dockage. “I’ve heard through the grapevine that it could be 1.75 (percent), like something in the middle between 2.5 and one,” he said. Brian Innes, vice-president of government relations with the Canola Council of Canada, said such a compromise would involve Canada agreeing to a non-science based solution because that would do nothing to reduce the risk of blackleg transmission. He hinted there may be something else in the works. “I can’t comment on the specifics, but what I can say is that we know one of the ways that we can reduce the risk of blackleg is to lower the prevalence of blackleg in Canada,” he said. The council has funded a variety of research projects over the last seven years that have resulted in best management practices for reducing the incidence of blackleg and minimizing the risk of it spreading to China’s rapeseed crops. Innes said the pending agreement will cover all of China’s blackleg concerns, not just the dockage issue. The deal will be a science-based solution that addresses China’s concerns while providing peace of mind for Canadian exporters, he said. “Since 2009 we’ve operated under provisional arrangements. Some of those arrangements have been from year-to-year,” he said. “What we need is a long-term solution that enables stable trade.” sean.pratt@producer.com

East-central Sask. farmers fight water issues at harvest

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

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

CANORA, Sask. — Spinning tires; deep ruts; water splashing up through the crops. Swathing has been an adventure for farmers in east-central Saskatchewan, where most of the region is still reporting adequate

to surplus moisture. Last week’s crop report rated topsoil moisture at 86 percent adequate and 10 percent surplus on cropland, with similar conditions on hay and pasture. In crop distr ict 5A , which includes Yorkton, Raymore and Cupar areas, 19 percent of cropland has excess moisture. Some fields in an area east of Canora through to Rhein still haven’t recovered from a downpour of about 120 millimetres one early August night, followed by another 60 mm a few days later. “It was like a flood in the spring time,” said Darcy Korol, who farms near Donwell. Farmers are reporting water splashing up as they swath and many have sunk their swathers in mud. Korol said he got stuck cutting canola and combining is going to be a challenge. “The last few days it’s changed quite a bit,” he said after last week’s warm, windy weather, but the ground is still saturated. Three quarter-sections of barley on flat, wet land pose a particular problem for him.

“Just when you think you’re on land where it’s dry, you’re not,” he said. He had just begun harvesting last week and said he expects he will get to most of the crop. “The only loss is going to be where it’s too wet to get in, but in about a month, we should be able to go back,” he said. Near Spy Hill, Myles Thorpe said field conditions are variable there too. “Some fields you’re driving through water and some are dry,” he said while swathing Sept. 2. He has already combined some peas, barley and wheat and said yields are good. “It’s not an excellent crop by any means,” he said. “OK is a pretty good term.” He said crops in his area are likely to be average and far from the near record yields that people are talking about. “I don’t know anybody who’s getting blow-out yields,” Thorpe said. He added that canola likely won’t yield better than other crops because too much was drowned out early in the season.

Fusarium will be a factor in wheat quality, he said. Lyndon Hicks, the province’s regional crops specialist in Yorkton, said after a good start to the growing season the smaller, intense storms began and didn’t let up, leading to the wet pockets throughout the east-central region. “The rains were timely until the tap turned on and got a little stuck,” he said. He agrees yields won’t break records, but he also said the crop is far from a writeoff despite strong wind, rain and hail. Some farmers got damaging hail three or four times on the same fields, he said. Pulse crops have suffered with the late rains and harvesting some crops will be difficult due to lodging. Still, he said most farmers aren’t too worried yet because it’s still early. “There’s so much canola in that area,” he added. “Nobody’s too disappointed until the canola is poor.” karen.briere@producer.com

RESEARCH

Growth in specialty oil business fuels expansion Cargill expands research facilities with $3.5 million investment in facility at Aberdeen, Sask. BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Cargill’s specialty canola business in Saskatchewan has been operating like a well-oiled machine during the past few years, according to company officials. So well that Cargill is expanding its research facilities in Western Canada and increasing contracted acreage in an effort to meet the growing global demand for its high-oleic specialty canola oil. “Our business has grown considerably over the past 20 years since we’ve invested into the high oleic canola space,” said Mark Christiansen, managing director of Cargill’s global edible oils portfolio. Christiansen was part of a Cargill delegation that hosted an Aug. 29 grand opening at the company’s newly expanded seed research facility at Aberdeen, Sask. Cargill spent $3.5 million to expand its Aberdeen facility.

In the specialty canola oil business, you really have to continue to innovate because what you were doing 10 years ago probably won’t be considered new and improved today. MARK CHRISTIANSEN CARGILL

The expansion included the addition of 14,000 sq. feet of working space, a larger canola pathol-

ogy laboratory, a state-of-the art quality assurance lab, more office space and facility improvements to accommodate the facility’s workforce of about 40. Cargill’s opened its Aberdeen research facility about eight years ago. Cargill consults with global customers to determine specific needs in terms of oil profile and functionality. From there, new lines of specialty canola are developed at Cargill’s facilities in Fort Collins, Colorado. Selected lines that show the greatest promise are then tested in real world growing conditions at Aberdeen, Sask.. The experimental lines are assessed for agronomic performance, yield, disease resistance and other characteristics. The most promising varieties are commercialized, multiplied and distributed to Cargill’s con-

» CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “In this particular situation, these two companies don’t really compete against each other very much, particularly when you get out into Western Canada,” he said. There have been mergers in the past that reduced competition in the fertilizer industry like when CF Industries acquired Terra Nitrogen Company and when the Mosaic Company acquired the phosphate assets of CF Industries. In those two cases, there was considerable asset overlap, which led to cost-cutting and huge savings. That is why Buckley is so perplexed by the proposed merger of PotashCorp and Agrium. Both companies produce nitrogen, phosphate and potash fertilizers but he sees little opportunity for cost-cutting based on where the assets are located and what markets they serve. There would be some general and administrative cost savings. “You can get rid of some expensive VPs and an expensive CEO,” he said. But those expenses are a drop in the bucket compared to the savings associated with streamlining logistics, reducing sourcing costs and eliminating competition. Buckley believes Agrium and CF Industries would be a better merger because CF Industries could supply Agrium’s Crop Production Services’ (CPS) retail network with nitrogen fertilizers. “They could completely feed the CPS system and Agrium wouldn’t have to be buying all this product, so that’s an ideal fit,” he said. This isn’t the first time PotashCorp has been a mergers and acquisitions target. BHP Billiton attempted a $40 billion hostile takeover of the company in 2010. That takeover was thwarted when the Canadian government ruled it would not provide a net benefit to the country. Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall was also opposed to the BHP takeover but he is amenable to the PotashCorp/Agrium merger. The chief executives of both companies contacted the premier as soon as news of the merger talks was leaked and assured Wall that maintaining Saskatchewan jobs and royalties would be an important part of the new entity. “These considerations have been paramount in preliminary discussions and should the discussions advance they would continue to be a top priority,” Wall told reporters. “So I was grateful to hear that.” He believes the merger could result in Agrium shifting some corporate staff out of Calgary and into Saskatoon where PotashCorp is headquartered. “We would view this potentially, if it were to come to fruition, as an opportunity to pursue an even greater corporate presence in Saskatchewan,” said Wall. Buckley has no idea where the company would be headquartered but he said Agrium likely has the upper hand in the negotiations because it is in better financial shape despite having a market capitalization of $17.5 billion versus $20 billion for PotashCorp. He said the merged company would be a big enough entity that it could fend off any unwelcome advances from other companies. “A merged company has much more survivability,” he said.

WINNIPEG BUREAU

The Rio Olympics? Whatever. How about Western Canadian edible bean yields, fungicide use and length of growing season? Those were hot issues a group of 30 Brazilian farmers wanted to know all about as they visited the Agriculture Canada research centre in Morden. Rather than attend the Olympics in their home country, the dedicated farmers chose to visit Western Canada to see how Canuck farmers farm. “We flew exactly at the end of the Olympics,” said Reinaldo Anastacio, the agronomy consultant for the Brazilian farmers’ cooperative whose members were on the trip. “We came to get new ideas, new solutions.” North American farmers have regularly traipsed down to Brazil to see how agriculture is done in that nation’s vast expanses of farmland. There have been fewer trips of Brazilians to North America, but this group chose Canada for its annual journey to an exotic foreign farming nation. In previous years they have visited the U.S., South Africa, China and Australia. Anastacio was one of the translators for the farmers’ group, many of whom spoke only Portuguese. They rapid-fired questions at him as they surrounded Agriculture Canada pulse disease specialist Waldo Penner beside strips of edible bean trials. “Do you apply a lot of fungicides?” “What are the main diseases?” “How long is the growing season?”

The most accurate way to measure the potential corn crop is to analyze July weather in key growing states, says an American market expert. |

Analyst questions USDA corn estimates

MICHAEL RAINE ATTENDED THE FARM PROGRESS SHOW IN BOONE, IOWA AND FILED THIS REPORT. WATCH FOR MORE STORIES NEXT WEEK.

Market prices have adjusted to account for the United States Department of Agriculture’s projections of yield from last month’s report, but are they right? Does it matter? Bryce Knorr analyzes markets for the American Farm Futures information service. He told farmer audiences in packed tents at last

week’s Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa, that they must consider the source when it comes to acreage and yield insights. And while there might be little good news coming about the large crop the U.S. is about to harvest, there might be light at the end of the tunnel. “Sometimes USDA ratings are very close, but what is the most accurate way to measure the crop’s potential yields in August?” he asked the crowd. He said the USDA’s methods can generate good estimates, but he feels weather modelling provides a better picture of what will ultimately be harvested. For the corn crop, Knorr said an analysis of July weather in eight key states has proven over time to provide the best view into the future. “And this year I think there is enough evidence that the USDA is too high on its yield estimates,” he said. “But it would have to be off by a great deal to make a significant change to prices at the farm.” That is because the crop is projected by most to be at or near a record 15.2 billion bushels. The high influence of the U.S. corn supply usually affects all crop

markets, including prices of Canadian crops. Roger Zylstra is a cash crop and hog producer east of Des Moines, Iowa. “It is a good crop. But a record crop? Records are pretty big. I am not sure I am seeing it being that good out in the fields, he said. He said the large crops of the past few years have pressured prices. “We feel it. Feed costs are better though. And we (livestock producers) have the edge of providing nutrients from manure. But these big crops are making things tight for farmers. You have to make up for the price with yields,” said the regional representative for the producer group Iowa Corn. Knorr said if the USDA numbers are right, even though the demand for corn remains strong, it will keep a lid on prices. “I can’t say that even $3 corn will hold,” he said. Knorr said other issues are playing into corn’s continuing slide in price, even if the USDA has over estimated the crop, now estimated to be 175 bu. per acre. He said some good news in the market place isn’t as rosy as it looks. Ethanol producers are cranking

Roger Zylstra produces hogs and grows corn and beans near Lynville, Iowa. He thinks if USDA numbers are correct, prices will fall. out more product because of low oil prices. Americans are taking advantage of gasoline prices in the US75 cents per litre range. The mandatory blending requirement means that demand for alcohol is rising with every fuel fill up. However, recent improvements in distilling practices are squeezing more liquor out of the stills per bushel of corn.

“So that isn’t as good as it sounds for demand,” he said. Chinese corn use has been good, and that country is cutting its direct, per bushel subsidies. Farmers who were once getting $9 per bu. now receive about $5.50. And that should bode well for imports. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

PRODUCTION OUTLOOK

However at the same time, China has a mountain of inventory and is not fully tapping its contracts with Ukraine. The U.S. is the lowest-priced exporter in the current international market, so while sales are steady and the volume of American shipments is high, it might not be sustainable throughout the season. Knorr said many American producers who enjoy higher than average yields will see profits if they priced some of the 2016 harvested crop last season and take full advantage of available crop insurance programs. Should the harvest be smaller than the record predicted and closer to the 168 bu. per acre longterm trend and if the USDA also overestimated the seeded acreage, the carryout could tumble from the projected 2.4 billion bushels to something below two billion bushels and possibly even as low as 1.8 billion. Those situations would likely create some significant rallies in corn, but Knorr feels it is a long shot.

Short supply of milling wheat likely

BRYCE KNORR MARKET ANALYST

Knorr said a big crop of soybeans is also coming, but unlike corn, the demand for the crop will continue to eat through the record production. Bob Burgdorfer of Farm Futures said if there is an upside in the market it will be in beans. Knorr agrees. “Beans, 48.9 (predicted bu. per acre) is not out there and 50 isn’t out there. It is more like 46 or 47. There is some potential for soybean yields to get smaller.” He added that 49.2 bu. per acre in soybeans would give cash prices of about $8.50. If there are 46 and 47 (bu. per acre yields) then it can be US$10.50 with rallies to US$11.50 or US$12. “Wheat is at the lowest prices since 2006 and not likely going to get any better,” he said. Burgdorfer said spring wheat has shown some signs of strengthening, but winter appears to be struggling to increase. michael.raine@producer.com

High protein wheat could see premiums BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The world is awash with wheat but not milling quality wheat, say analysts. The International Grains Council forecasts a record 743 million tonnes of production. Global stocks are expected to reach 229 million tonnes by the end of 2016-17, resulting in a bearish 31 percent stocks-to-use ratio, which would be the highest in 15 years. However, milling wheat supplies are actually tightening, according to an article by U.S. Wheat Associates analyst Stephanie BryantErdmann that appeared in the Aug. 25 edition of its Wheat Letter publication. Strategie Grains is forecasting European Union soft milling wheat output at 66 percent of total production, down from 71 percent the previous year. It estimates 91.4 million tonnes of EU soft milling wheat, down 16.6 million tonnes from last year’s production. Bryant-Erdmann said that will be partially offset by a larger Russian milling wheat crop. Strategie Grains forecasts 48.1 million tonnes of Russian milling wheat, up four million tonnes from last year. “Still, the expected increase in Russian milling wheat supply will only offset one-quarter of the 16.6 million tonne decrease in European milling supply,” she wrote. Bryant-Erdmann noted that preliminary harvest data indicates protein levels are down in winter

Erica Olson, marketing specialist with the North Dakota Wheat Commission, said there is no doubt the U.S. hard red winter wheat crop is of poor milling quality.

It was averaging 11.2 percent protein with about 85 percent of the samples analyzed, which is about one percentage point lower than last year. “It’s the lowest in over 40 years. It’s pretty dramatic,” she said. The U.S. spring wheat crop was averaging 14.3 percent protein with about half of the samples analyzed

for the regional crop quality report in the four main growing states. That is slightly higher than the long-term average of 14 percent. However, U.S. spring wheat production is expected to be 14.5 million tonnes, down about one million tonnes from last year. Statistics Canada is forecasting 20.2 million tonnes of Canadian spring wheat production, up one percent from last year. Olson said the big wildcard is crop quality due to the abundance of summer rain. Derek Squair, president of AgriTrend Marketing, said the early signs are that Canada might have quality issues. “It looks like we’ve got a pretty good yield and we’ve got some lower protein,” he said. Squair believes there will eventually be decent protein premiums due to the dearth of milling wheat, but it may take four or five months before they materialize. “We’re telling our guys to segregate some higher protein to leave for later,” he said. Olson said the futures spread between hard red winter wheat and spring wheat has increased since harvest to about $1.10 per bushel. The long-term average is about 50 cents. So there is a significant premium between classes of wheat but protein premiums within the spring wheat class haven’t budged. The difference between 15 percent and 14 percent protein wheat is about 20 cents per bushel, which is about typical. Olson said that will change if Canada harvests a low protein crop or if the last half of the U.S. harvest is of poor quality. sean.pratt@producer.com

Chickpea markets await news of Indian purchases WINNIPEG (CNS Canada) — A key player in international chickpea markets remains silent as the Canadian harvest gets underway. “We’re still kind of in that phase where there’s a lot of orders trying to get filled, positions trying to get squared,” said David Newman of Commodious Trading Inc. Pr ices have been relatively steady, Newman said, but the main factor in the market right now is

India’s absence. “We’ve been able to sell a little bit of stuff to a few other markets, but I think without India being able to actively participate, everything is kind of left to the wind,” he said. There are two main reasons why India has pulled back from the market: The country has already made some purchases and many analysts point to a potentially large Indian domestic crop looming.

“There’s a huge amount of purchases on the books—that’s for sure,” Newman said. “Last year, India was looking at a drought situation, and they bought everything we had. It was gone.” Kabuli chickpea spot prices across Western Canada range from 20 to 53 cents per pound, depending on size and quality, according to data from Prairie Ag Hotwire. Newman added that Western

Canada’s chickpea crop is in mostly good condition, after a couple weeks of uncertainty stemming from excess moisture. Statistics Canada pegs this year’s chickpea production at 106,900 tonnes, which compares with last year’s 83,500 tonnes. Saskatchewan Agriculture’s recent crop report (as of Aug. 31) says about one percent of chickpeas have been combined.

Researchers study corn hybrids for drier regions DuPont scientists look for ways to balance improved drought tolerance with better yields to suit Western Canadian fields BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Manitoba corn acres increased more than 30 percent this year, rising to 325,000 from 250,000 in 2015. The growth, based on Statistics Canada data, is a positive sign for the corn industry and proponents of the crop, who envision a future with millions of acres in Western Canada. Many companies and plant scientists are developing corn hybrids suited for the Prairies’ short growing season, but others are working on what might be a larger obstacle to corn’s expansion: devising varieties that can withstand a monthlong drought during the growing season. Corn needs ample moisture, and many prairie producers, especially those who recall droughts from the late 1980s, remain skeptical that the crop will be successful in Western Canada. “Where does (corn) do the best? In the parts of the States where they’ve got lots of water and heat,” said Doug Robertson, who farms near Carstairs, Alta. “There’s a reason corn grows where it grows.” Data from DuPont Pioneer shows that Robertson is correct. Yields plummet in dry years in the western fringes of the U.S. corn belt, such as the Dakotas and Nebraska. Jeff Habben, a senior research manager for trait discovery with DuPont Pioneer, said yield losses from dry conditions in central and western North Dakota can be 60 to 80 bushels per acre. He said yield losses would likely be similar in Western Canada. DuPont scientists are studying how to mitigate those losses so that corn can be grown in drier regions

If DuPont does discover a drought tolerance trait for a warmer region such as Nebraska, the company could transfer the technology to shorter season varieties for Canada. | FILE PHOTO of North America. “From a U.S. corn belt perspective, we’re interested in these fringe areas, particularly in the western fringe of the corn belt,” Habben said.

However, DuPont isn’t interested in years with extreme drought because such events are random. The company wants to develop corn varieties that can endure dry periods during critical times in the

growing season. Research at a DuPont farm near Sacramento, California, has demonstrated that irrigated corn with sufficient moisture yielded 200 bu. per acre. When DuPont scientists

held back water to simulate dry conditions at flowering, they found that moderate drought caused yields to drop to 150 bu. acre. Plots with more severe drought yielded 100 bu. per acre. “We know the greatest (yield) losses in maize occurs during (the) flowering period,” Habben said. Knowing that dry conditions wreak the most damage at flowering is one thing, but addressing the issue is tricky because drought tolerance is a complex trait. Jian-Kang Zhu, a Purdue University plant scientist, said it’s comparable to a balance scale, with drought tolerance on one side and plant development and yield on the other. Unfortunately, traits that improve drought tolerance tend to tip the scale, compromising growth and yield. DuPont scientists are attempting to overcome that challenge and find solutions suitable for the northern Plains and Western Canada. “We are actively trying to identify germplasm that grows in those areas,” Habben said. “We have a maize breeder in the Dakotas that helps breed (corn) for those CRMs (comparative relative maturity) which are around 70 days.” If DuPont does discover a drought tolerance trait for a warmer region such as Nebraska, the company could transfer the technology to shorter season varieties for Canada. However, Habben said such a process is challenging. “We have a lot more germplasm from that central part of the corn belt to play with,” he said. “Making those crosses … into that germplasm up north, it can work but it’s not very straightforward.” robert.arnason@producer.com

ll of a sudden it seems like “Game on!” for new crop marketing. Instead of a clogged grain handling system glutted with mountains of good wheat, oceans of canola and piles of beautiful lentils, it now looks like farmers and the industry will be moving a far more variegated crop and there will be many ways to get better treatment for good-looking crops. Unfortunately, the biggest factor that has changed the situation is the relentless rain that caused such damage across such a wide swath of Western Canada. Rain is good, but not when rain comes every three days and creates root-rotting soil conditions, a greenhouse effect inside the canopies and stands,

and challenging conditions for sprayers. In early July most crops were looking great. By late August that was no longer the case in thousands of quarter sections. That leaves thousands of farmers with worse crops than they thought they were going to have in early

July. Lots worse. But that damage is already understood by most growers, who have been anxiously surveying their crops for weeks and have already been lowering their expectations. The silver lining is that many other growers suffered the same problems, so there will be less to move

across the Prairies and good quality crops are now much more in demand. That should make buyers more aggressive. The demand situation for canola was greatly improved last week w i t h P r i m e M i n i s t e r Ju s t i n Trudeau’s success in getting China to back down from its threat to crimp imports of Canadian canola from Sept. 1 onwards. That threat was hanging over the canola industry for months, worrying exporters and causing buyers to pull back from making purchases. Now there seems to be little stopping the flow of canola westward – at least for a while. I can’t imagine the Chinese government quickly overturning the reprieve it gave Trudeau and International Trade Minister Chrystia Freeland, unless it deliberately wants to embarrass them. Continued Chinese demand and a crop that won’t glut the system suggest farmers should have a good winter of canola movement. In wheat, there is already lots of talk about protein and quality premiums. Spreads between lower and higher protein crops could

become a significant factor if crops are as mixed-up as many are saying. And the strong demand for pulses now won’t be overwhelmed by overproduction, which was a worry with lentils. That’s not much succour for farmers who have seen all their lentils destroyed by disease, but for those who get an OK crop it should be easier to market and probably bring better prices. The situation is a lot different now than in early July, when the crops looked so good. Nothing can fix that. But at least for marketing and moving the crop farmers can expect to face a better winter than they feared when crop projections were so hopeful. ed.white@producer.com

CANFAX REPORT FED CATTLE The Canfax weekly weighted average for fed steers and heifers was not available. Local sale volumes were too light to establish a weighted average steer or heifer price, however the market tone was lower. Dressed sales were reported in the mid $220s on a delivered basis and initial sales were $8-15 per hundredweight lower than the previous week. A few cattle also traded on a live basis with prices $6 per cwt. lower than last week’s weighted average price. Tentatively on the few cattle that were marketed this week on a cash to cash basis, Alberta prices traded $10.75 back of the Nebraska market. Closing the week $3-$5 lower, Ontario fed prices are now at the lowest levels seen since December 2013. Equity drain within the feedlot sector continues to persist as cattle continue to be sold offside. Based off the Canfax Trends program, feedlots that have been selling cattle on the cash market have been dealing with negative margins for the past 13 months. Based on yearling steers, the average losses over that time are just short of $300 per head. Western Canadian fed cattle slaughter averaged 39,099 head on a weekly basis compared to 34,872 head last year. In addition to big slaughter volumes, export numbers have also been running above year ago levels. For 2016, January highs remain firmly intact. Looking back over the past 25 years, there have only been two other times that annual highs occurred in January, that being in 1995 and 2006. It is interesting to note in both of those years annual lows occurred during the month of August. From August lows to fourth quarter highs, fed prices rallied 14 percent in 1995 and six percent in 2006.

COW MARKET D1, D2 cows ranged $94-$109 in light to moderate trade to average $100.57 per cwt., down 87 cents. D3 cows ranged $82-$99 to average $90.50, up $2.92. Rail grade cows ranged $191$196. Slaughter bull prices were mostly steady at $124. YTD western Canadian non-fed slaughter is 11 percent larger with a total of 206,613 head. Canadian non-fed exports to the U.S. have been very static over the past seven weeks and totaled 4,394 head for the week ending Aug. 20.

WP LIVESTOCK REPORT YTD non-fed exports of 163,387 head were down seven percent. Steady prices are anticipated until fall culls hit the market in October.

FEEDER MARKET Alberta feeder cattle traded mixed this week with calf prices generally steady to higher while yearling prices trended steadily lower as the week progressed. Average steer prices were $3.33 per cwt. lower this week as steers over 600 lbs plummeted $4 to $7 per cwt. lower. Heifer prices fared slightly better averaging mostly steady with the previous week. Heifer calves less than 600 lb. saw prices firm $2.50-$5 per cwt. higher while larger contemporaries traded moderately $1.50-3.00 per cwt. lower. Calf volumes were generally light. Total auction volumes however continue to trend seasonally larger as yearlings come in off grass. A moderate volume of large yearlings from 1,000-1,200 lb. were on offer this week. Total weekly sales volumes of 29,295 head surged 94 percent larger than the previous week. YTD volumes of 678,118 head are nine percent below year ago. USDA reports that Canadian feeder exports to the U.S. for the week ending Aug. 20 trended sideways at 1,834 head. Total Y TD feeder exports of 148,186 head were down 39 percent compared with year ago. Auction volumes will continue to increase moving forward but significant volumes of calves are not anticipated until the end of the month. Yearling prices are expected to realign lower moving forward to negate projected feeding loss. A softer tone is anticipated for the calf market next week.

CRAIG’S VIEW

CANOLA TRADE

Canada should seek new markets for canola exports

t’s tempting to label the dockage dispute between China and Canada’s canola exporters as an issue between a buyer and a seller. Indeed, it is that. But beneath the surface, the roots shoot in many directions, hence the need for political action that saw Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announce that the Sept. 1 deadline for new dockage rules has been extended. The fact is, when dealing with China, politics are always involved. First, there is the argument advanced by China that the Canadian Grain Commission’s definition of clean canola at 2.5 percent dockage risks bringing blackleg into the country, so it wants dockage reduced to one percent. This government-ordered mandate supersedes deals between buyers and sellers. The CGC argues there is little risk of exporting blackleg and that canola is only imported to areas in China where there is no rapeseed, so contamination is unlikely. Various officials have weighed in on both sides. China says it can buy its canola elsewhere. It imports four million tonnes annually from Canada, which is about 40 percent, or $2 billion worth of Canada’s canola exports. Some on the Canadian side believe China is trying to eliminate a large stockpile of rapeseed oil by putting pressure on canola imports. Canadian exporters are naturally worried that dockage changes imposed by China will be expected by other countries. Canola is the only crop being targeted at the moment but that could change. Trudeau once famously said he admired China because its dictatorship could order changes quickly. Hence, we have the canola concern. Reduction in dockage is perhaps worth $40 million. If a compromise is reached,

and say, China pays about $20 million less by splitting the dockage at 1.75 percent, Canadian farmers will be the ones to pay. Who wants to lose $20 million, with potentially more on the way as other countries demand the same deal? Part of the problem may be the perception of who is in the best bargaining position. China might believe it has the high hand because it imports so much canola from Canada, but it can’t easily replace Canada’s canola with imports from other customers. Canadian exporters know this, so they may believe they’ve got more clout. Has either side, or both sides, overestimated the strength of their negotiating positions? The solution for Canada may be to place an emphasis on seeking other markets to export. China is a tempting market, and that must be nurtured, but canola exporters are at the mercy of government intervention in the market, as we’re seeing here. (Though China is by no means alone in that practice.) If China sees Canada has other places to market significant quantities of its canola, it may be in a weaker position to impose changes. Unsaid in all this is what matters to farmers, who will bear the brunt of any changes. They need assurance of markets for their product and all this uncertainty plays out in crop decisions. Kicking the issue down the road by extending the Sept. 1 deadline, as the Trudeau government has managed to negotiate (quite quickly after his appearance in China, interestingly enough), isn’t sufficient. It will take significant political will by the Canadian government to resolve this dispute.

Trudeau’s China visit brings sighs of relief from canola growers CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

ervous canola farmers worried that this year’s harvest may not have access to the lucrative Chinese market can breathe easier. After months of discussion, including daily bureaucratic negotiations, a Sept. 1 deadline to reduce the amount of dockage in Canadian canola shipments has been delayed, at least for now. China has agreed to retain the current level level of 2.5 percent until officials on both sides can negotiate a more permanent solution, International Trade Minister Chyrstia Freeland, whose father

Freeland was in China with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during his first official trip Aug. 30 to Sept. 7. The visit also coincided with this year’s G20 meeting. Canada is the world’s largest

exporter of canola, with 42 percent of seed exports destined for the Chinese market, valued at about $2 billion. Canada and China have been arguing over canola dockage levels, and ways to prevent the spread of blackleg for years. The disagree-

ment came to a head in February, when Chinese regulators announced as of April they would only accept shipments where the amount of foreign material in canola shipments was less than one percent. The April deadline was later extended to Sept. 1. But while current levels and imports will continue, canola market access should not be dropped from Ottawa’s policy agenda. The past few months have highlighted how dependent Canada is on the Chinese market. While some market alternatives exist, notably countries like the United Arab Emirates and Pakistan, industry has said none of those markets compare to China. Nor is Canada’s bulk grain handling system designed to easily adapt to individual demands from shippers and buyers. Canola is a highly lucrative crop for Canadian farmers, one that typically brings in high income and forms a critical part of the cash flow. Acreage has increased, as

have yields. Farmers this year expect to harvest the second largest crop on record. However, if alternative markets or additional domestic processing space (Canadian canola crush plants are already at near capacity) cannot be found, Canadian farmers, who are already facing weaker commodity markets, may consider growing other crops. The Liberals have pledged to continue seeking new market access for Canadian goods. They have also committed to investing in valueadded processing, two promises that have taken on added importance by this latest trade spat. Both the prime minister and trade minister Freeland planned to raise market access for canola, officials said during a technical briefing leading up to the China visit. It’s safe to say the outcomes will be closely watched by industry and farmers alike. Kelsey Johnson is a reporter with iPolitics, www.ipolitics.ca.

National free-trade deal ignores constitution

50 crops may be the new 40

BY HOWARD ANGLIN

ven before Canada’s premiers departed Whitehorse earlier this summer, media coverage was applauding a “ground-breaking” and “historic” agreement on internal national trade. Not so fast. The official statement announcing the new Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA) was only 191 words long and omits any of those pesky details where the devil is reputed to lurk. However, the whiff of sulfur could already be detected in talk of “exceptions” to protect “local interests.” Truly historic moments rarely come with caveats. One key omission was immediately evident. When it comes to alcohol, the agreement will establish “a working group on alcoholic beverages, which will explore opportunities to improve trade in beer, wine and spirits across Canada.” I’ve helped draft enough summit communiques to feel confident translating this: “Don’t hold your breath.” The premiers of Ontario, Quebec and British Columbia also announced a separate proposal to create an e-commerce site to allow the people of their provinces to purchase wine through the provincial monopoly boards of the other provinces. While almost any development would be an improvement on the current prohibition-era restrictions on movement of alcohol within Canada, this deal moves in the wrong direction. Rather than loosening the provincial alcohol monopolies that deny consumers choice and producers a national market, it would build on those restrictions, further

The Canadian constitution, signed 149 years ago, mandates free trade between provinces, yet restrictions on the movement of alcohol continue. | FILE PHOTO entrenching them. To their credit, Premiers Christy Clark and Pierre Couillard acknowledged the modesty of their ambition. Clark admitted that “we have not freed the grapes completely” and Couillard responded that, at least “we’ve unshackled them.” Such small mercy might mollify a prisoner but it should not satisfy Canadian consumers. Ironically, while 191 words were not enough to reform Canada’s “byzantine” (Clark’s word, which if anything understates the problem) internal trade rules, there was an even shorter statement that the premiers could have turned to for a solution. Section 121 of the Canadian Constitution, adopted during Confederation 149 years ago, already mandates free trade between provinces. Needing just 29 words, Section 121 says in its entirety: “All Articles of the Growth, Produce, or Manu-

facture of any one of the Provinces shall, from and after the Union, be admitted free into each of the other Provinces.” How beautifully succinct; how pellucidly clear. No need for clumsy jargon about “growing the economy,” gauzy “visions for promoting trade,” or cross-fingered promises of “working groups” to “explore opportunities.” And the best part: it’s already part of the supreme law of the land. The promise of Section 121 was recently upheld in New Brunswick, where a trial judge threw out a fine against Gerard Comeau, who legally bought beer and spirits in Quebec and drove them home across the New Brunswick border. The court recognized that the Fathers of Confederation intended their new country be a single economic unit for purposes of trade, and that Section 121 means the provinces cannot prevent the free movement of goods among them-

selves. Unfortunately, Canada’s premiers don’t seem to have read Judge Ronald LeBlanc’s decision, which is an 88-page lesson in economic history, constitutional exegesis and political misfeasance. Nor do they appear to have absorbed the lesson of multiple academic and political studies that estimate the loss to the Canadian economy of internal trade barriers at between $50 billion and $130 billion every year. As a result, the new agreement on wine sales will perpetuate the unconstitutional restrictions against purchasing or shipping wine (to say nothing of beer and spirits, which appear to be excluded from the scheme) directly from producers or suppliers. It will also continue to shut out small wineries that can’t afford the substantial cost and red tape of distributing through provincial monopolies. So consumers will continue to be denied access to some of the best wines made in other provinces. State-run e-commerce hubs are not necessary for consumers to buy food, books or clothes from other provinces. Why then do the premiers persist with these anachronistic and unconstitutional restrictions on the sale of alcohol? Until the provinces stop violating Section 121 of the Constitution, the vision of our country’s founders, the rights of Canadian drinkers and tens of billions of dollars of annual economic growth will continue to be scotched by their parochial interests.

Producers doing business with them need to abide by a long set of guidelines covering everything from labour practices to land use to sprayer calibration. Some of the protocols are reasonable, but many were developed to cover other regions of the world. Not many Prairie farmers are going to have a diked storage facility for crop protection products. Not many will have an official grievance process for employees. And why does it matter if land was

recently broken to grow crops as opposed to being farmed for decades? This seems to be a stipulation designed to protect Brazilian rainforests. However, when you look at the crops we grow as food products, there are some practical considerations regarding cleanliness. It’s sometimes said that the solution to pollution is dilution and that’s the approach used with large grain volumes. As long as test samples don’t detect an issue with impurities, the grain shipment is good to go. It will be cleaned before going to end-use customers anyway, so why should we worry about a bit of contamination at the farm level? Because, purity should involve all partners in the value chain. Most of us haul treated grain to the seeder and then use the same truck for hauling grain off the combine and grain to market. Is the truck washed out after carrying treated seed? Should it be? Obviously, you don’t want a stray

kernel of treated seed showing up at the elevator. They take a very dim view of this. But even if the truck is swept clean of all the treated grain, will there be some chemical transference to the next load or loads of clean grain? I’ve never seen any data on this, but maybe guidelines should be developed. Do you have an auger dedicated to treated grain? If not, how do you clean your auger? Is treated grain stored in a bin that’s later used to store harvested production? How do you clean that? Fertilizer is another issue. Most of us store grain in fertilizer bins at harvest. How thoroughly was it cleaned? It takes more than opening the hatch to be sure clumps of fertilizer aren’t clinging to the sides. At harvest time, insects in the grain sample are often unavoidable. I’ve had pulse crops crawling with grasshoppers, but thankfully insect parts in the sample did not end up as a downgrading factor. Not sure what we can do about it,

but bugs in grain are not very appetizing when you think of the grain being served at the dinner table. Yes, some people voluntarily consume insects, but I’d like my dinner free of insect juice. And I’d also prefer my food to be relatively free of bird and mice droppings. Birds like to poop in combine tanks and mice can be rampant in stored grain. What about spoiled grain in storage caused by water leaks in either bins or grain bags? Rotten grain can be vile and no doubt some of it gets mixed into what moves to market. Canadian grain is reputed to be some of the cleanest and highest quality in the world so we’re doing a lot of things right. But it’s also reasonable for each of us to be aware of potential contamination issues and make sure that what we’re selling is something we’d be comfortable feeding to our own families.

he average age of the Canadian farmer continues to rise unabated. Most of us know the reasons; financial barriers to entry being paramount. The average farmer age is 58, and more than half of producers in all provinces are older than 55, except in Quebec where 48.8 percent of farmers are 55 or older. Farmers aged 50 to 54 make up 15 to 18 percent of all producers in the country. As well, 80 percent of all farmers are older than 45. This demographics issue is a statistical bubble. The last Canadian Census of Agriculture in 2011 found that on 55 percent of farms the oldest operators were older than 55. Twenty years earlier, the number was 37 percent. During the same period, the number of oldest operators aged 40 and younger declined 62 percent to 10 percent in 2011 from 26 percent in 1991. Machinery is getting bigger, along with farm size, and the buyers are looking for more comfortable tools to accommodate their older bodies. While companies can design and market equipment to this aging demographic and keep them in machinery seats, or supervising autonomous robotic equipment later into their lives, that can’t be done with farmland. We all will retire someday and there is a bubble coming. The farm income bubble of 200714 kept many producers farming who might otherwise have quit. For many growers, it was the first series of profitable years they had experienced since the 1970s. Beef cattle and grain farmers are among the oldest operators, dairy and poultry are the youngest. That points to the stability of those industries and a profit potential that makes them more attractive to new entrants, albeit usually family members. One might think bigger farms are operated by younger producers, but when it comes to farm receipts from $500,000 to $1 million, 45 percent are run by farmers 55 and older. The percentage of operators age 55 and older is the same for operations with receipts of $1 million to $2 million and for operations with receipts of more $2 million. Many farmers like to think they have still 40 crops in them, but unless we find ways to bring in a new wave of growers, we might be looking at 50 crops being the new the 40.

HARVEST

Southern Alberta corn crop looks promising BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

BARNWELL, Alta. — Corn crops were soaking up the sun on a 28 C day in southern Alberta Sept. 1 and Michel Camps couldn’t be happier. “The corn looks very, very good,” said Camps as he stood in one of his corn fields. “So far it’s been a good year.” This crop near Barnwell, and others in the Taber region more famous for its fresh corn, will likely be harvested in mid-October. It has three more weeks of growing time to reach maturity so it can dry down and be harvested at

a suitable moisture level. Lloyd Van Eeden Petersman of Taber Home and Farm Centre, who is also a Dupont Pioneer representative, said grain corn acres seem to have levelled off in the region but it has become a viable crop in the rotation for some. “Grain corn interest started to peak probably four or five years ago,” he said. “New hybrids are better suited for the area. A couple years with strong commodity prices on the corn side of things and local demand got a lot of guys involved. It has become a part of crop rotation for quite a few of the growers. I’m not seeing a lot

of new growers enter, especially today where commodity prices are headed on the corn side of it.” Corn growers got an early start on the season this year and frequent rain showers and irrigation availability ensured crops suffered no drought stress. As of last week, the southern Alberta corn-growing region had accumulated about 2,200 corn heat units, putting grain corn well on its way to maturity. “If this kind of trend continues, it would put us into having our crop mature ahead of a Sept. 20 frost across most of the acres, so we’re quite happy with what we see,” said

Van Eeden Petersman. Sept. 20 is the average date for a killing frost in the region. Higher than usual humidity may have contributed to disease problems, although hailstorms were the bigger culprit. “Goss’s wilt is something that we see more prevalent across a wider range, a wider area this year, but then we also look back and we also had hail damage across a significant area,” said Van Eeden Petersman. “Not bad hail or real damaging hail but just enough to damage the plant to a degree that perhaps it was susceptible to the spores of

Goss’s wilt.” He estimated the fungal disease affected one in three cornfields this year. On the insect front, European corn borer is always an issue but this year two-spotted spider mites appeared, causing some growers to spray for crop protection. “We need those plants to be actively growing and absorbing sunlight right up until the end because we need the full season here to grow the corn. You don’t want those leaves to be damaged or die off prematurely.” barb.glen@producer.com

SaskPower is urging farmers to take care around power lines during this busy harvest season. “We just do know that every year as harvest ramps up we see more and more incidents and that’s sort of why we want to try to get out ahead of it,” said Kevin Schwing, the utility’s director of health and safety. Several incidents involving property damage have already been reported this year. “Typically, it’s equipment hitting lines,” Schwing said. “It’s activity in the farmyards with augers by the grain bins and getting through farmyards, things like that.” He said it only takes a moment to be distracted and injured, and with increasing technology in equipment and ubiquitous use of cell phones, the distractions are becoming more plentiful. He also said that harvest tends to bring out a lot of volunteer help. Family and friends might not know where overhead lines are or be paying enough attention. “They’re really focused on the job you give them and you need to take the time to tell them about the power lines and the hazards around them, especially working an auger and lowering it when you’re moving it. “Identify where the power lines are, plan a different route, lower the augers and get a spotter if you need to,” he advises. If contact with a power line does occur people also need to know what to do, aside from calling 911. If an auger contacts a line the person driving the tractor should stay put. If the tractor catches on fire, however, stay seated, open the door fully and make sure there are no wires in the way, then stand in the doorway with arms crossed and jump as far from the tractor as possible landing on two feet. Hop at least 10 metres from the tractor, and then slowly slide feet apart. If you feel tingling, slide your feet back together and hop further away to safety. karen.briere@producer.com

MAKING HIS ROUNDS

CROP RESEARCH

Wheat projects get $750,000 The wheat commission says money will support variety research and technological innovations BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The Alberta Wheat Commission is investing nearly $750,000 in five wheat-related research projects in Alberta and Ontario, the commission announced this week. The investments are part of AWC’s commitment to provide western Canadian wheat farmers with innovative tools and solutions that improve crop performance and profitability. “Investing in research is a key priority for AWC as it ensures farmers have access to tools and technology that will improve efficiencies, as well as innovative ways to solve some of the challenges we face during the growing season,” said commission chair Kevin Auch. “I look forward to seeing the results of these projects and extending the outcomes to farmers.” The five projects will take place at field research institutions in Alberta and Ontario. The projects are funded through the Ag Funding Consortium, a partnership of 13 organizations. The five projects will examine: • beneficial management practices for hail damaged crops; • advanced monitoring programs for assessing and understanding stripe rust in Western Canada; • improved water use efficiency for better yield and drought tolerance; • new, low-cost testing technology for mycotoxin detection; • new tools to improve wheat yields under normal and abiotic stress conditions. Other funding partners include the Western Grains Research Foundation, Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission and Alberta Innovates – Bio Solutions. AWC’s investment triggered an additional $622,000 from other funding partners. The AWC is a producer-funded research commission that collects levies on each tonne of wheat produced in the province and uses the revenue to support wheat-related research projects that benefit farmers and the wheat industry. In 2014-15, the commission collected $6.4 million in refundable producer levies and issued refunds to growers worth $285,000. The commission invested roughly $2.4 million in research and market development activities. Adminstrative costs and salaries for commission staff cost about $900,000. The commission reported a budget surplus last year of slightly less than $2 million. Net assets as of July 31, 2015, were estimated at $8.35 million, including $4.9 million in cash, $1 million in accounts receivable, and $2 million in restricted investments.

CROP DISEASE

Now is the time to keep a sharp eye out for ergot BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

When the final tally is in, this crop year is likely to show up as wetter than most years on the Prairies, and that’s just what fungus likes. Ergot is no exception, and true to form, it has shown up in some cereal and hay fields. In addition to affecting yield and increasing dockage, ergot is a danger to livestock when present in feed grain or hay. Sherri Roberts, a regional crops specialist with Saskatchewan Agriculture in Weyburn, said she has found ergot in fall rye and it has also

shown up in native grasses in the province’s southeast. Ergot was an issue two years ago in prairie crops but Roberts said she doubts it will be as much of a problem this year. “I don’t think it’s as bad, because people were alerted to it and they were more intelligent in their crop rotations, realizing they had the problem at that time,” she said. “Two years ago, I don’t think people were looking for it. They weren’t as conscious that it was out there. We’ve run a special project in the ministry and this year they were specifically out there looking for it

in fall rye, and we did find it.” Ergot spreads by spores but can only affect cereals and grasses when they are flowering. This year, Roberts said rye crops were just beginning to flower when rain started to fall. That extended flowering, which lengthened the period in which ergot could attack. That might also have affected the amount of ergot in native grasses and hay crops. If it is detected in those, Roberts recommended action. “A lot of times it will start on the edge of a field so you can, oftentimes depending on the size of your

swather, just come in and take the tops off that one part of the field and then just dump it. “Don’t bale it. Don’t use it. But its going to be there in the ground and it’s going to be there for two years, so if they’ll stay out of susceptible crops they can pretty much get rid of the source of the inoculum that’s creating the problem.” If there are any doubts about ergot in hay, producers should have the material tested so they know infection levels. That will provide guidance on whether it can be fed to livestock. Ergot can remain viable in the soil for two years, so a problem one year can mean a problem in the next, depending on weather and moisture conditions. “It can only infect when that plant is flowering so if you don’t let those plants develop to that maturity level, yeah, you’re going to be cutting your hay earlier and getting a reduction in your yield but you’re not going to have to gamble with having ergot in your hay crop.” As for cereals, a heavier seeding rate will reduce the number of tillers and shorten the flowering period, limiting opportunities for ergot. Crop rotation is also an effective tool. Saskatchewan fall rye varieties are all moderately susceptible to the fungus. The Canadian Grain Commission has specific tolerance levels for ergot contamination in grain. They vary by crop type and grade. However, toxicity to livestock is the major worry involving infected crops. At high levels, ergot-infected feed can cause gangrene in animals’ tails, ears and feet and lower levels lead to reduced appetite and lower growth and reproductive rates. Dr. Reynold Bergen, science

ABOUT ERGOT • it is a fungus called Claviceps purpurea and occurs naturally • it appears as hard black bodies in grain and affects grasses, wheat, barley, rye, triticale and oats • the fungus overwinters in the soil and spreads by spores • crop losses most likely in wet years • extended flowering means more ergot • causes reduced number of kernels in head and downgrades crop quality • there are no registered fungicides in Canada for control or suppression • it is harmful to livestock when consumed Source: Alberta Agriculture, Ag Canada

director with the Beef Cattle Research Council, said in a blog that 0.1 to 0.3 percent ergot bodies, by weight, in cattle feed pose a risk to the animals. That is five to 20 ergot bodies per litre of grain. Ergot is also toxic to other livestock, although some species are more tolerant than others. barb.glen@producer.com

NEW SLOGAN

Sask. community puts on new face to attract residents Old slogan caused controversy BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A Saskatchewan town that’s been known for the past 60 years as “The Land of Rape and Honey” is projecting a new image. Municipal officials at Tisdale, Sask., about 200 kilometres northeast of Saskatoon, unveiled a new town slogan last month, replacing the old slogan that town officials called “confusing and outdated.” Tisdale’s new slogan is “Opportunity Grows Here.” “We did (an) … assessment … and we found with the previous slogan, that it was outdated, confusing and could be misunderstood,” said Sean Wallace, the town’s director of economic development.

Tisdale, Sask., has removed its old welcome sign and will erect a new billboard saying Opportunity Grows Here. | BRIAN CROSS PHOTO “(The new brand) is more reflective of Tisdale today and recognizes what we’re really good at here, which is agriculture and supporting the agriculture sector.” Tisdale’s old town slogan had been generating publicity for the wrong reasons over the past few

decades. Rape, or rapeseed, is an oilseed crop that was once grown widely in the Tisdale area. However, outside observers often attached a different connotation to the word. Today, most oilseed producers in the Tisdale area grow canola, a

derivative of rapeseed that produces a different type of oil used for cooking, baking and frying. Wallace said the town’s new slogan was chosen after extensive consultations. In addition to projecting a more positive message, the new slogan also fits well with Tisdale’s efforts to attract foreign investment. Town officials launched a new foreign direct investment initiative called Invest Tisdale. It has hosted delegations from Japan, China, India and other Canadian provinces in hopes of attracting new investors to the community. The two road signs that identified Tisdale as “The Land of Rape and Honey” have been removed. “One is going to the museum and … because of the buzz that this has created, I intend to auction the other one off,” Wallace said. The sign destined for auction will likely be sold through an online

auction site, and the proceeds will be used to pay for new signs. Town officials unveiled the community’s new slogan Aug. 22. The announcement sparked a flurr y of activity on Tisdale’s website, setting a new record for internet visits in a single day. “Our website received over 175,000 hits yesterday (Aug. 23) alone,” Wallace said. “Previously (it) hadn’t had that many hits, period.” Online visitors came from the United States, Russia, Japan, Great Britain, India and throughout Canada, he added. Tisdale’s former slogan was also adopted in the late 1980s by British technopunk-industrial rock band The Ministry on its third studio album.

UNGULATE DISEASE

CWD alert in B.C.; no cases found but hunters warned not to import risk materials LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Chronic wasting disease infection in wild deer is steadily spreading in Alberta and Saskatchewan and now the British Columbia government is on alert. Last week provincial wildlife biologists asked hunters in the Peace River and Kootenay regions

of B.C. to bring deer, elk and moose heads to officials so they can be tested for the disease. CWD has not been found in any B.C. animals, according to a provincial news release. However, it spread from Saskatchewan to Alberta within the last two decades so it could spread westward. The brain-wasting illness is

spread through infected saliva, urine, feces and soil. Ungulates that get the disease show weight loss and poor condition, accompanied later by stumbling and trembling. However, infected animals may not appear ill. CWD is among a group of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, the most famous of which

is BSE in cattle. However, CWD cannot be transmitted to humans. Hunters are also warned not to bring risk materials from kills of deer, elk or moose into B.C. from other provinces. Those include the brain, spinal cord, eyes, lymph nodes and spleen. Hunters can bring the heads of deer, elk and moose to any B.C.

wildlife or conservation office. In the Peace Region, they can also take them to North Peace Rod and Gun Club in Fort St. John, Peace Taxidermy on Highway 29 and Russell’s Custom Meat Cutting in Chetwynd.

assive walls of water thunder over a fault line. Cataracts and rapids twist through a narrow canyon. Most intriguing of all, a rapid-filled spring seems to gush mysteriously from a solid rock wall. The best part is that all of these spectacular natural features are easily accessible along a paved highway following the Grass River in northwestern Manitoba. The river became famous during the fur trade as part of the Upper Track to Hudson Bay. Voyageurs would portage from the Saskatchewan River system into the Grass River headwaters at Cranberry Portage, south of current-day Flin Flon, then paddle northeast along the river to where it joins the Hudson Bay-bound Nelson River. Today, this ranks among Manitoba’s top wilderness canoe routes.

Pisew Falls is the second highest waterfall in Manitoba. Several points along the river are accessible along Highway 39, which begins roughly halfway along Highway 10 between Flin Flon and The Pas. Running east then northeast, Highway 39 eventually joins Highway 6 heading to Thompson. At the western end, the highway passes through Grass River Provincial Park, with access to three campgrounds along the river and lakes. A must-stop is Iskwasum Campground, the middle one and home to the Karst Spring Trail.

The beautiful 3.2-kilometre loop walk through thick forest parallels the Grass River shore much of the way. The highlight is the spring that seems to surge out of solid rock. Considered a mystery since it was first documented a century ago, this strange phenomenon has to do with its location where the Precambrian Shield meets the sedimentary rocks of the Manitoba Lowlands. It is thought that water seeps through the softer sedimentary rock, but when it hits the underlying hard rock of the shield, it can’t

go any further and comes gushing out. Farther east on Highway 39, take the 15-kilometre detour north to Wekusko Falls Provincial Park, where the Grass River narrows and plunges 12 metres through a series of rapids and waterfalls before rushing into Wekusko Lake. It’s easy to see most of the falls along a short walking trail and two suspension bridges crossing the river, getting you up close to the roar of the water and the constant spray. There’s a nicely situated campground next to the lake which is known as a fishing hotspot, especially for large walleye. But for those mainly interested in seeing the falls, the prime real estate for camping is in the walk-in tenting area, across the river from the main campground and next to the falls. Ten spacious sites are scattered in the trees lining the river, with some overlooking the water. We had planned to spend one night at this exceptionally pleasant spot, but decided to stay another. Between our two nights at Wekusko Falls, we took a day trip to get serious about waterfalls. Pisew Falls is about an hour and a half

drive farther east on Highway 39, which changes to Highway 6 part way along. The Grass River cascades 13 metres in a massive wall of water, then makes a sharp turn into a gorge. A short trail along a boardwalk with steps leads to breathtaking viewpoints. Just downstream, a suspension bridge crosses the turbulent river, allowing more great views. An informal trail leads right to the brink of the falls. There are no barriers, so it’s important to be careful here. Pisew Falls is the second highest waterfall in Manitoba, only a metre less than Kwasitchewan Falls, just downstream on the Grass River. Getting there is not easy. The park recommends allowing 12 hours for the rugged and difficult 22-kilometre return walk to the falls that starts at the suspension bridge. While some do it in an extremely long day, others backpack in and stay overnight at one of the backcountry campsites near Kwasitchewan Falls.

FARM LIVING

ON THE FARM

Ranchers heralded for stewardship The Anderson ranch is nationally recognized for its conservation efforts and environmental integrity BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

FIR MOUNTAIN, Sask. — Miles Anderson would tell you he’s a rancher. But he’s also an historian, biologist, paleontologist and all the other things that come with spending his life on the family ranch in southwestern Saskatchewan. It’s clear there is no place he would rather be than on the land his great-grandfather and grandfather settled in 1911 after emigrating from South Dakota. It’s where he and his wife, Sheri, now run about 600 Black Angus cows with the help of several hired women, often from other countries. “They’re interested in this type of work, and the oil patch kept the men away,” said Sheri. The two met through a mutual friend while Miles attended Olds C o l l e g e. Sh e r i w a s b o r n i n Nebraska but raised on her family’s ranch in British Columbia. The couple raised four daughters, Quinn, Carlee, Tori and Kacy, and now welcome visits from grandsons, Anderson and Abel. Extended family are the closest neighbours, except for one significant exception: the east block of Grasslands National Park. Previous generations once ranched on what is now park land, discovering dinosaur bones and fossils as they rode the unglaciated badlands. As important as the Anderson Ranch is to the family and its history, its place in conservation and environmental integrity is now more widely recognized. In June, the family received the provincial Environmental Stewardship Award at the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association convention. In August, they won

the national award at the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association meeting. Miles is a bit mystified by it all. “We’re just doing things the way we always did,” he said during a drive through the ranch and park. They graze in large sections of their 23,000 acres of deeded and leased native prairie, rather than smaller rotational paddocks that others have adopted, and allow their stock to drink directly from t h e R o c k C re e k t h a t w i n d s through the area. They’ve purchased all the lease land they could. The remainder isn’t for sale because it is protected under wildlife habitat restrictions. The ranch runs to the U.S. border and is surrounded on three sides by the park. They grow oats, triticale, barley and some durum on farmland closer to the home place. Calving begins in late April on grass. Calves are generally fence line weaned, backgrounded and sold in the fall through Spring Creek Premium Beef, an Angus program that fit their already naturally raised beef. The formation of the park has driven much of what the family, and Miles in particular, has done for the last 25 years or so. “I got involved in stock growers in about ’88,” he said. “There was a movement in the States to remove all cattle from public lands.” Slogans like “Cattle-free by ’93” and “Not a cow alive by ’95” worried him. Grasslands National Park was established around the same

ON THE FARM

MILES & SHERI ANDERSON Fir Mountain, Sask. time and adopted a no-grazing policy. “During the ’80s, we thought we were doing everything wrong, because our grass kept getting shorter and shorter and shorter,” Anderson said, referring to the drought during that decade. “Then it rained and, the park, their grass stayed the same.” It rained more in the 1990s and he says park staff began to see that good things happening on the Anderson Ranch weren’t happening on the ungrazed park land. The benefits of grazing native prairie are now well recognized. “I didn’t think we should be embarrassed by anything that we do in grazing land,” Miles said. “If you do it properly, we could graze livestock and have the park. We could complement each other.” That philosophy has now been adopted when it comes to species at risk. The woes of the greater sagegrouse have been well documented the past several years. As the number of counted birds on

public land dipped to about 30, the Andersons still had a healthy population on their ranch. When federal scientists came calling, they found numerous other threatened species on the ranch as well. Robin Bloom, species at risk coordinator with the Canadian Wildlife Service, said the Anderson ranch was among the last privately-managed areas where sage-grouse were found in Saskatchewan. It became obvious that if species were to recover in the park, that recovery would have to begin at the Andersons, he said. Bloom said he now understands that the Andersons’ management practices are the reason more than a dozen federally listed species at risk are surviving. “There’s a strong relationship between Miles’s grazing practices and the sage-grouse,” Bloom said. “There’s a reason they’re still there.” That’s a far different view than the idea that grazing is bad for the sage-grouse because it disturbs their nesting habitat. Adjacent park land hadn’t been grazed in 30 years before officials took notice of what the Andersons were doing. Miles and Sheri were willing to share their knowledge and are using 30,000 acres from the park in a non-typical lease arrangement to help the sage-grouse recovery efforts. The idea is that the patchy landscape that cattle provide by grazing helps the birds at different stages of their lives. Nesting cover is important, but what happens after the chicks hatch. Grass that isn’t grazed would resemble a jungle for the tiny chicks, leaving them unable to

find the insects and forbs they need to survive. The birds need both dense cover and more open areas where they can forage. “That isn’t documented anywhere in the scientific literature,” Bloom said. “Everybody’s focusing on the nesting cover and potentially dropping the ball on the importance of livestock grazing providing these other resources. “So the big experiment on the Anderson ranch is to provide this patchy grazing.” Miles also noticed sage-grouse would often be killed when they struck the wires on the park’s fence. That fence separated the park from the ranch, but it also separated the birds from their important lek, where the males court the females. He put clips on the fence posts for the wires, then dropped the wires to the ground and left them so the birds could move easier. It might not have been parkapproved, but photographs of hens and chicks provide evidence that local management and knowledge have a role to play. Miles’ original concern about the movement to stop grazing pushed him into many other things. He was the stock growers’ president from 1996 to 1998, a founder of Red Coat Cattle Feeders at Hazenmore and chair of the Prairie Conservation Action Plan. The ranch is certified under the Verified Beef Production program and they’ve been honoured as the Saskatchewan Angus Association commercial producers of the year. “Twenty-five years later, there’s cattle in the park. So I’m happy,” says Miles. karen.briere@producer.com

PINE RIVER, Man. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Anthony Semeniuk delivered six babies in his taxi, ran a general store and cut hair. His cab service often became an ambulance for locals in medical distress and sometimes women in labour couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to get to the hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The doctor told me what to expect and from then on, I was OK and knew what to look for when a child is born,â&#x20AC;? said Semeniuk. In his youth, he studied animal husbandry and barbering and farmed, but it was Pine Riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general store that became the epicentre of his wide-ranging businesses. He started by running the pool hall, but later sold the tables and moved into groceries. But he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop there, adding a tax service, egg grading, real estate and insurance services while also working as a census and returning officer. In his 40 years of driving cab, he operated 22 different cars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anything you do, whatever you do, do it with love and you will be successful. I run my life with love.

Medwid stands at the cash register, with a wooden cabinet behind her filled with cigarettes and a well seasoned deli meat cutting machine close at hand. Nearby, two odd chairs and a

Candy like Ziplocked bags of gumballs are stacked on shelves for the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know why Tony didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t write a book, all the stuff heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done,â&#x20AC;? she said. Semeniuk said boots once accounted for $10,000 in monthly sales, but Medwid said most locals frequent the store now for water, cigarettes and liquor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some days, there is not enough business. If not for alcohol and cigarettes, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say no,â&#x20AC;? said Medwid of the storeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sales.

The second generation Ukrainian who grew up speaking his parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; language said the town was once mostly Ukrainian. Today, Mennonites are more prominent. As in many rural areas, consumers gravitate to larger urban centres and large grocers, with Semeniuk expressing dismay at the underwhelming support small grocers like him get. The town is pockmarked with gaps where businesses once stood, including six stores, four garages, an implements dealership, a hotel, livery barn, RCMP detachment and theatre. More than 500 people lived here in 1947, and today the population is less than 150. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Passengers used to come here to the CN station, meet and then go to

ops are perennials grown as a landscape plant or for beer making but can also be added like a bay leaf to soups and stews. Both the young shoots that come out of the ground in spring and the cones that form on the plant in late summer are edible. These cones contain lupulin, which is a substance that consists of resins and essential oils and gives the hops its characteristic bitterness. There are several varieties of hops and each has its own unique flavour. Rub the cone between your fingers to get an idea of its flavour. Use them sparingly because they can overpower a dish. Add during the last five minutes of cooking and remove before serving. Use it to infuse milk to make a Bearnaise sauce or ice cream or add a little to lemonade. Tear a few pieces of the cone into a salad to give bitterness or saute the spring shoots like asparagus. Ants love hops so be sure to wash in a large bowl of cold water. Let them soak for a few minutes until the ants come out, then squeeze to dry and lay on a clean towel. At this point, they can also be frozen and stored for up to six months.

HONEY AND HOPS ICE CREAM The honey gives the ice cream a smooth texture, but be sure to add it after cooking the custard. Honey is slightly acidic and can cause custards to curdle. 1 1/2 c. whole milk 1/2 c. fresh hops, washed and squeezed dry 1/4 c. sugar pinch of salt 1 1/2 c. heavy cream 5 large egg yolks 1/2 c. mild flavour

375 mL 125 mL 60 mL 375 mL 125 mL

In a saucepan, bring milk to a simmer. Add hops and continue to simmer for about 15 minutes. Strain milk, squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Return the strained milk to a clean saucepan and add sugar and salt. Pour the cream into a medium bowl and set a mesh strainer on top. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Slowly pour half of the warm milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. Add the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan. Over medium heat, stir the mixture constantly with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spoon. Pour the custard through the strainer and discard any lumps. Stir the milk and cream mixture for a minute or so, until tepid, then mix in the honey. Chill mixture overnight. The following day before churning, taste the custard and add additional honey, if desired, then freeze the mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

I was watching the Olympics and following the controversy about the Chinese swimmer who talked about having her period during a swimming competition. Do you have any suggestions for helping with this problem?

Fu Yuanhui, 20, told reporters at the Olympic games

in Rio in August that menstrual cramps might have caused her swimming relay team to lose. Some people were upset that she mentioned the word period, while others expressed surprise that you could even go swimming if menstruating. There are still some old wives tales about the supposed dangers of this activity. Wearing menstrual pads during swimming is not recommended. It’s not practical or hygienic and could weigh a swimmer down. Tampons and menstrual cups both work well, but tampons should be changed before and immediately after the swim. Taking the contraceptive pill not only alleviates unpleasant symptoms of pre-menstrual syndrome,

but can also be used to manipulate the menstrual cycle so that a period does not occur at the same time as a major sporting event. The woman has to keep on taking the pill that contains the active ingredients until when she wishes to have her period. Taking the pill may cause fluid retention and weight gain in endurance events that last for an hour or more. Vitamin B complex levels may also be affected, so vitamin supplements may be required. Some athletes have so little body fat compared to muscle that they stop having periods altogether. While this can be helpful during the events, it is not healthy in the long run, possibly leading to osteoporosis and infertility.

COMPETITION + GLYPHOSATE DAY 21: re-growth occurs

Q: A:

Are pill organizers a good idea?

They can help a person with a fading memory to take the pills at the right time of day but there is a counter-intuitive downside. Researchers at the University of East Anglia in the United Kingdom found that older people who switch to using pill organizers could experience adverse effects and even hospitalization. This resulted from them not having taken the prescribed medication at all or skipping most of the doses prior to using the organizer.

PESTS

Researcher keeps watch for new canola pest Pollen beetles cause extensive damage to crops in the Maritimes and Europe but haven’t been spotted in the west … yet BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Entomologist Hector Carcamo has seen many, many insects in his career but he has yet to lay eyes on Brassicogethes aeneus, otherwise known as the pollen beetle. He doesn’t want to, either. Carcamo, a research scientist with Agriculture Canada, works in Lethbridge and a sighting of the pollen beetle in his region would mean the pest has made its way to Western Canada and could potentially be a threat to canola crops. It has not appeared but Carcamo suggests that farmers watch for it just in case. “I have never seen one in the flesh,” said Carcamo. “What happens sometimes is when you start looking for something closely, we tend to find it, but hopefully that’s not the case with this beetle. It’s considered a potentially serious pest of canola.” The pollen beetle is present in the Maritimes and Quebec, and is a major pest of canola in Scandinavia. Carcamo said accidental human introduction would be the most likely way it could arrive in Western Canada. It could hitch a ride on a cabbage or other member of the crucifer family, for example. The pollen beetle is easy to identify, said Carcamo. It is two to three millimeters long and about the same size as a flea beetle. It is shiny and black or greenish black. There are two related species that look similar, Carcamo said. One of them is found in Eastern Canada and the other in Europe. The beetles lay eggs on plants and t h e l a r va e t h e n f e e d o n p re emerged blossoms. In the second larval stage, they feed on open flowers. Carcamo said plants can generally tolerate major flower abortion and still survive and flourish, so it would take a large number of beetles to do major damage. Research work on pesticides is underway in Canada. Though it would be ideal to identify any pollen beetles early so they could be eliminated, Carcamo said that is unlikely. “We have a very poor record of eradicating insects because by the time you detect them it means that they are not in low numbers. You need a method that allows detection at very low levels and I don’t think those methods exist. “Usually by the time you find the insect, it means that it’s at a level high enough that it’s beyond the point that you can eradicate it.” Nevertheless, identifying the insect’s presence early would provide time to figure out management methods and economic spray thresholds for prairie conditions.

Trap crops might also be an option should the beetle make its way to the Prairies. barb.glen@producer.com

50 YEARS AGO

Saskatchewan farmers talked of striking for better prices 50 YEARS AGO: SEPT. 8, 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: SEPT. 11, 1941 The Western Producer published a front page article from the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool about what it called an unfair rail car allocation system that was forcing pool members to deliver grain to rival companies. The issue was over not basing allocation on temporary storage, which the pool had more of than the traditional line companies. Prairie farmers were becoming interested in growing corn, particularly in Manitoba, where shelled corn production increased to 1.5 million bushels in 1940 from 600,000 bu. in 1939. Farmers in southwestern Saskatchewan were also reported to have had success with corn, including the Colquhouns of Maple Creek, but production in that province was considered negligible.

The federal government used legislation to enforce settlement of a six day rail strike, but not all workers were going back to work. The railways weren’t happy, either, calling it a “very expensive settlement.” Sask Pool’s board of directors was discussing a resolution that asked the company to conduct a province-wide survey to find out what farmers thought of possible strike action to back demands for higher prices for their products.

25 YEARS AGO: SEPT. 12, 1991 S ome things never change. Twenty-five years later and striking workers were still playing havoc with efforts to export grain. This time it was federal public servants, who admitted targeting the export grain industry. “We wanted to bring it to a halt because it is an effective way to put pressure on the government,” said Larry Leng, acting president of the agricultural union of the Public Service Alliance of Canada. Harvey McEwen, president of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association, took his fellow farmers to task for demanding more financial assistance from government. “As a farm leader I was disappointed, as a general citizen I was

10 YEARS AGO: SEPT. 7, 2006 Agriculture Canada and Pulse Canada were pointing fingers at

each other in the aftermath of a trade dispute with China over selenium levels in peas. The pulse industry said it could have been working on dismantling the costly trade barrier if Ottawa had been on the ball, while the government said the organization had ample opportunity to provide input but didn’t.

NEWS CANOLA DEMONSTRATION DAY

Spraying advice for dense canopies Expert stresses the importance of water for penetration BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Running at eight m.p.h. between stakes, Tom Wolf illustrates sprayer nozzle penetration during a Canola Harvest Innovation Demo Day hosted by BASF July 27 at Stenen, Sask. | WILLIAM DEKAY PHOTO

STENAN, Sask. — Even experts can learn something new. It happened recently to Tom Wolf while demonstrating spray nozzle penetration techniques and canopy densities in breezy conditions at the Ag In Motion farm show earlier this summer. “We learned that no matter what we did with a double nozzle — low boom, high boom, fast, slow, coarse, fine — it always deposited

in the direction of the wind,” he said during the Canola Harvest Innovation Demo Day in Stenen hosted by BASF. “I couldn’t deposit it against the wind. So wind conditions can trump this.” He said two key factors stand out for successful spraying under windy and challenging conditions: twin fan coarse spray nozzles and a low boom height. The twin fan nozzle allows the spray to go forward and backward, while a low boom height gives the droplets maximum opportunity to fly backward at the target. “Make the spray as coarse as you can. We want the droplets to actually move forward and backward despite the wind, and low booms help that,” he said. “I’m spraying at a fairly low boom height to give the droplets maximum opportunity for actually flying backwards at the target height. That’s the key thing.” The importance of water volume and timing is critical in a year of dense canopies, whether spraying fungicides or desiccating. “Your biggest hammer is more water, and I achieved it by going slower,” he said. The bottom third of the stand received no benefit during Wolf’s field demonstration when spraying at about 10 gallons of water per acre over a thick canopy. “The canopy is incredibly powerful at attenuating the spray,” he said. “The more difficult it is to see through the canopy, the more water you should be applying.” Wolf recommended slowing high clearance sprayers to about 10 m.p.h. and applying 15 gallons per acre using a coarse tip. “You can use that same tip for your late season desiccation work, but now you’re going 10 m.p.h. and doing 15 gallons an acre.” However, he said 20 gallons are even better for penetrating to the bottom third. “The number one thing is the value of more water in terms of canopy penetration to get deeper into a canopy and to have better coverage lower in the canopy.” Producers with a lot of ground to cover and not enough time should not hesitate to use aircraft. “The application method is not as important as the timing,” he said. “The nozzle choice is much less important than water volume.” william.dekay@producer.com

Wolf used paper designed to turn purple when it comes into contact with water to illustrate sprayer nozzle penetration.

The federal government is investing $3.4 million for AbCelex Technologies to help develop antimicrobial feed additives to control disease outbreaks in poultry flocks. The company is developing a new line of next-generation nonantibiotic, non-hormonal additives that target campylobacter and salmonella, which are two of the most common food-borne bacteria that infect poultry. WINE GRAPE RESEARCH The federal government is investing $400,000 in a wine grape research program at the Agriculture Canada Kentville Research and Development Centre in Nova Scotia. The program is expected to provide growers with new information about varieties, growing techniques, and processing to take advantage of the region’s microclimates and land. Researchers will investigate grape wine production practices, soil fertility, bud hardiness and pest and disease management at the Centre’s experimental two-acre vineyard. Scientists will map every vineyard in the province and record the characteristics of its microclimates and terroirs as well as the production and management practices at each location.

DEVELOPMENT OF CANADIAN BEEF MARKETS The federal government recently announced an investment of $6.4 million over three years to help Canadian beef increase global consumer demand and brand loyalty. The marketing and promotion plan targets key regional hubs in Asia, Europe, North America and Latin America. The investment builds beef export markets that have been re-established or expanded in Mexico, Ukraine, South Korea and Taiwan. DAIRY SUPPORTS INCREASE The Canadian Dairy Commission increased the support price of butter and skim milk powder effective Sept. 1. The support price of butter will increase from $7.7815 to $8.0062, and skim milk powder from $4.4176 to $4.5302 per kg. The adjustments in support prices will offset the reduction in producer revenues in the last year. CDC said the lower revenue was partly due to a decrease in world prices and to larger sales of surplus milk protein in low-priced markets. The CDC expects these adjustments in support prices to add up to an overall revenue increase of about 2.76 percent for dairy producers for milk processed into yogurt, ice cream, cheese, and butter. The impact of these adjustments at the retail level will be influenced by manufacturing, transportation, distribution and packaging costs throughout the supply chain.

Field robots: their time is near Two more autonomous machines hit the dirt BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Visit us online at www.producer.com to see a video about this story.

BOONE, Iowa — Look ma, no hands! Or cab. While the ability to run farm equipment operator-free has been around for years, Case IH and New Holland are making a move to make it a reality on the farm. Jim Walker runs Case IH in North America and said his company wanted to get farmer input into autonomous farm equipment and felt the best way was to bring it to a farm show and ask them. The Farm Progress Show is one of the largest farm equipment events in North America and when the sister companies unveiled their robotic offerings in Boone, Iowa, last week producers flocked to see the driverless gear. Leo Thompson farms 3,500 acres in Minnesota and was at the show when Case IH removed the cover from its cab-less Magnum tractor. “This does make it real for me. I can see one on our place. We have to till a fair bit where we are and a couple of these would cut our costs for labour, which is getting harder to get anyway,” he said. “I’d still want a cab if they offered it, just so we could drive it the oldfashioned way too,” he said. Across the show grounds, New Holland pulled the cloth off its robotic innovation, and this one would be more to Thompson’s liking. It had most of the same autonomy pieces but kept the cab intact. While the concept isn’t new, the tools to build it are getting cheaper and the acceptance of farmerless machinery has improved. Manitoba farmer Matt Reimer produced his own last year and drew attention to the desire for this type of equipment. German equipment maker Fendt showed off a drone tractor four years ago. John Deere and Kinze have both put unmanned tractors pulling grain carts into the marketplace. Autonomous Tractor Crop is offering to upgrade one of its diesel, electric modified four-wheel drive machines to full autonomy for about US $10,000. Orchard and vegetable producers have been running autonomous equipment for half a decade and aerial scouting gear has caused waves in the business for several years. Dan Halliday of New Holland said radar, lidar and camera technologies developed for collision avoidance have improved the systems and significantly reduced the costs. “We need to know what farmers want these machines to do and which equipment they will want it on. We have some pretty good ideas, but before we launch these types of technology into the market, we want their input,” Halliday said.

Walker said his company plans to offer the technology in cab-free and standard designs, “provided that is what farmers tell us they want.” The Case IH machine is based on the 370 horsepower Magnum chassis with the CVT drive system. The 8.7 litre FTP Cursor 9 puts the machine in the row crop and large forage production sectors. The operator manages, rather than drives the unit, providing direction and control from a tablet in the field or a desktop computer back in the office. Sensors provide feedback and mapping can give autonomous navigation and work plans. Halliday said producers might find they want to run one machine and have one or more drones in the same field. “Combines could also be a natural for this technology,” he said. Leo Bose of Case IH said the ag economy has become so demanding of farmers that this type of equipment fits into the “high-efficiency farming practices of the future,” which is also the new slogan the company unveiled in Boone last week. New Holland’s concept machine, a T8 with 435 horsepower was already 90 percent automated before they added the autonomous features. Bret Lieberman of New Holland said the company was filling in the rest of the “gap with safety.” While driverless tractors, cab or not, would likely be largely ignored by most of the public when they are in the field, transporting on the road would likely draw some attention, said Walker. Halliday said the prototypes are getting “a good work out in the field” at New Holland but in as little as three years, farmers might be able to order their own. He said there may even be abilities to retrofit recent models for autonomous operation. Both brands are using technology from Utah-based Autonomous Solutions Inc. The company was developing agricultural equipment offers kits for a variety of equipment. While the Case IH prototype is missing its cab, the only other items easily differentiating the New Holland from a manned vehicle are the extra WiFi antennas, four cameras on the corners of the cab and the radar and lidar units on the nose of the machines. Walker said that regulatory jurisdictions will have something to say about large autonomous vehicles, but feels that acceptance will not be far into the future. Thompson, meanwhile, offered this assessment: “I really would buy one, if the price made sense. I can calculate the payback for the bank.” michael.raine@producer.com

DATA CONSULTATION

Weather report designed to help choose services, make decisions BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

Is there a most-trusted source for weather predictions? Does it matter whether weather predictions are accurate since there is so little you can do about it? Yes, it does matter, according to Prassack Advisors in Denver, Colorado. It matters because data management has mushroomed from simple record keeping into sophisticated systems that are part of the decision making process. And weather, even though it canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t control it, is an integral part of the data bundle according to Prassack Advisors. One problem farmers face is which weather data service to choose. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a growing list of weather data services available and that has made it difficult for farmers and retailers in the agricultural industry to know which com-

pany to sign with, says Sandy Dales, marketing communications director for Prassack Advisors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where we come into the picture,â&#x20AC;? says Dales, from her office in Guelph, Ont. She says Prassack has just released a report designed to help farmers and others sort through the maze of questions when trying to select the most appropriate weather data consultant. The report is titled The Value of Weather Data for Agronomic Decision Support Systems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we could loosely call it Weather Data 101. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t review or rate all the data providers, because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a changing scene. Instead, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a primer to help a farmer deal with five key factors when shopping for a weather data provider.â&#x20AC;? Those five factors are: â&#x20AC;˘ Ways that weather data improves the decision-making process â&#x20AC;˘ What information is actionable

or non-actionable â&#x20AC;˘ Evaluate potential weather data service relevant to agriculture â&#x20AC;˘ Different kinds of weather data and how itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s produced â&#x20AC;˘ How to incorporate weather data into agronomic plan â&#x20AC;&#x153;If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re considering a couple of different technologies, our advisors can even do further research for you, because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s their specialty. They can give you an objective third party perspective on what will work best for you on your farm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re finding is that everyone is at a different stage in learning and incorporating the new information technology. The advisers can tailor their presentations to the specific needs of each client.â&#x20AC;? Access to Prassack advisers is only available to clients who have bought and studied the report. It sells for $2,275.

GERMANY FARM SHOW

Visitors see latest and greatest at DLG field day New seed varieties and plant protection products were top interests BY MELANIE EPP FREELANCE WRITER

H A S S F U R T, G e r m a n y â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Despite the messy, muddy conditions, international visitors made a strong showing at the 2016 DLG Feldtage (field day) in Hassfurt, Germany. The event attracted 350 exhibitors from 16 countries. While the grounds were thick with greasy mud, visitors were determined. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Actually we found that farmers being farmers do not let themselves be deterred by the weather,â&#x20AC;? said DLGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Malene Conlong. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, we had over 21,000 visitors, which are similar to levels in previous editions. We are seeing more and more visitors coming from as far afield as Canada,â&#x20AC;? said Conlong. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They come because they want to get inspired and want to compare different growing methods. You can always learn something from another farmer. North American producers could probably benefit from observing the crop comparisons plots.â&#x20AC;? The event offered producers machinery and field crop demonstrations and updates on precision farming technology. Conlongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farmer-run organization operates events around the world. She said producers are taking in farm shows and field days more than ever. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Information and tools of the (trade) are being developed and shared internationally. These are ideas, not confined to local or regional use. Farmers are travelling and choosing to discover things for themselves more and more.â&#x20AC;? Among machinery on display were mineral fertilizer spreaders, precision farming sensor technology, sprayers, drills and data management systems. This year there was also a special focus on the efficient use of slurry and digestate â&#x20AC;&#x201D; treatment and processing, nutrient analysis and preventing loss, and environmental services. A post-event survey found visitors were most interested in seed varieties (59 percent), plant protection (57 percent), fertilization (44 percent) and agricultural machinery and equipment (49 percent). Of those who attended, 52 percent plan to invest in new technology in the next two years. The next DLG Feldtage will take place in 2017 in Bernburg-Strenzfeld, Germany, June 12-14.

Competition sees robots navigating fields, treating weeds BY MELANIE EPP FREELANCE WRITER

HASSFURT, Germany — Tomorrow’s far m equipment won’t always pair a farmer with a machine. In many cases the machines will manage themselves, while the farmers direct the work. For 14 years a German agricultural robotics competition has helped build the engineers that will create those tools. Sixteen international student teams participated in the annual International Field Robot Event at the DLG field day held in Hassfurt, Germany. Each year, student teams enter robots into the contest. Typically, the students are studying engineering and robotics at the university level. DLG, Europe’s largest farmer’s organization, tests the robots in a variety of challenges. This year’s challenges included navigation, weed control and sowing. For weed control, robots were expected to accurately locate and treat weeds. The seeding task required robots to load seeds then plant them at specific co-ordinates, which were provided 15 minutes before the competition. Many teams failed. Wim-Peter Dirks, a member of the team from Wageningen University in the Netherlands, said he and his team had been working on their robot since April. He hoped they might have a chance at winning even though they struggled in the navigation task. “It didn’t work so good yesterday,” he said. “Today, it worked perfectly, so that’s a real bummer for us.” Dirks thought the wet field conditions might give his team a competitive advantage because he felt the steering capabilities on their robot were better than most. The Wageningen team didn’t win, but placed third in the seeding challenge. The winning team was a group of students from the University of Osnabrück in Germany. Their robot, The Great Cornholio, won the first navigation challenge, placed second in the second navigation challenge, and won the weed control challenge. Dirks and his team weren’t discouraged by the loss but they plan on trying again next year. “We learned a big lesson this year… to test all parts together. We tested them separately and that didn’t work.” “Next year,” he said.

ted through wireless means. But as usage increases, FCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chart of available frequencies keeps getting more crowded. As an example of crowding, we can use GPS NAVSTAR satellites, which transmit navigation data. For awhile there was a conflict between GPS signals and an organization called LightSquared. FCC had sold (yes, segments of frequencies can be sold, though there are not many blocks left and are not affordable for the average person) a ISM - 61.25Âą 0.25 GHz MOBILE-

segment of frequencies right next to the GPS frequencies. LightSquared was going to use the frequencies to provide worldwide internet service from a spacebased satellite. A good idea, except that after testing, it was found that Lightsquared signals were interfering with GPS accuracy (or actually vice versa). Even though the signals were next to each other, some â&#x20AC;&#x153;bleedingâ&#x20AC;? of signals between the two segments caused interference. This is where I stop explaining

his column has been exploring the concept of telemetry as a tool for agriculture and defined it as the wireless transmission of data. Before discussing how to use telemetry in agriculture, hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a simplified look to appreciate how it works. Wireless transmission of data is carried on electrical signals of different frequencies. Electrical signals are actually waves or pulses; frequencies are the speed of a wavelength in the electrical signal. Each frequency has different characteristics, such as how far it will carry, if it goes through objects, if it is absorbed by objects; or if it bounces off objects. These characteristics make certain frequencies useful for specific applications. Using a nonagricultural example, AM radio stations use a specific range of electrical frequencies that provide long distance transmissions of their signals for music. This range of frequencies is what you see on your radio dial. Country 1600 is actually transmitting their signal on a 1600 khz wavelength. FM radio stations use a shorter wavelength, which does not travel as far, but is more stable and has fewer interference problems. Most electrical devices use a specific wavelength to transmit data or signals. It is also important to understand that if a person or company were to use whatever frequenc y they wanted, there would be a lot of interference. Many signals would likely be blocked or corrupted by interfering signals. You may have heard of the FCC or Federal Communications Commission in the United States keeping track of radio DJâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that use inappropriate language. Actually the FCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main task is segmenting telecommunication wavelengths frequencies. The commission has a chart that provides an order and standardization for companies and organizations that design, build, and use communication devices. For example, FCC has reserved a large block of frequencies from 535 to 1705 kHz for AM radio. FM radio stations have a block of frequencies from 88 to 108 Mhz. Segmented frequency blocks organizes how they are used and helps ensure that signals from one type of device donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t interfere with other devices. If a manufacturer builds a device that uses a signal in the AM or FM frequency zones, the use of that device would interfere with a radio station or visa versa. Any new device that uses electrical transmission must be registered with the FCC. Look on any device for a FCC number; if it has one it is transmitting some type of signal. Registering with the FCC assures that the signal is compatible with the chart of frequencies and that the device will not interfere with other devices. The good news is that usually the manufac-

The end result is court cases that are still trying to figure it out. Considering the amount of data that agriculture generates, telemetry can be valuable to growers.

Ontario vegetable marketing board under microscope Ontario’s agriculture minister has halted proposed changes, saying an economic analysis and more consultation are needed BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

O-66-08/16-10590104-E

KENT BRIDGE, Ont. — The final offer arbitration system used by Ontario’s processing vegetable industr y will end if proposed amendments by the province’s Farm Products Marketing Commission (FPMC) move forward. The changes would create an “industry advisory committee” and growers would need to find another means to set prices and contract terms other than through their marketing board, the Ontario Processing Vegetable Growers. The board has several processing vegetable crops under its mandate including tomatoes, a high-value crop for growers. Processing tomato grower Frank Furlan said FPMC’s decision earlier this summer came as a surprise. “It is a good system as it is. The growers didn’t ask for this,” he said. Furlan was reluctant to speak further, as were other growers in the area. Their immediate priority was to harvest what may prove to be a bumper crop. “It’s a heavy crop,” Furlan said. “We don’t want any more rain. We have enough to last us until the end of the season.” While there has been far less rainfall across southern Ontario this summer, tomatoes are a droughttolerant crop and tend to have less disease when conditions are dry. The FPMC’s amendments under Ontario’s Farm Products Marketing Act were announced on June 28 and were to have been finalized by late September and implemented for the 2017 season. That changed when Ontario’s agriculture minister Jeff Leal entered the fray. He’s forced the commission to take a step back by

issuing directives under the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Act. Leal instructed the commission not to implement any regulatory amendments for the processing vegetable industry until there’s a detailed economic analysis supporting the proposed changes and consultation with stakeholders and interested parties. In addition, Leal said information concerning specific amendments must be posted on the Provincial Regulatory Registry for no less than 60 days and that the posting must be sufficiently detailed “so that any policy and economic objectives of the regulatory proposal are clearly articulated.” Phil Richards, a director with the Ontario Processing Vegetable Growers, said there’s been widespread support from growers for the existing marketing system. So far, he’s seen no written statement from any grower indicating support for the changes proposed by the commission. John Mumford, OPVG executive director, said there’s a recognition among growers that processors need to access raw product at a price that allows them to be competitive within the North American marketplace. At the same time, growers have made dramatic gains in productivity since the days when the Canadian processing vegetable industry was a protected market. Grower committees currently negotiate with processors to set prices and contract terms on an annual basis through a process known as final offer arbitration. If an agreement cannot be reached through mutual consent, each party submits a final offer to an arbitrator who chooses between the two.

Record Australian pulse harvest set to fill Indian plates Growers are expected to harvest 1.8 million more tonnes of pulses than last year, the majority destined for export markets SYDNEY (Reuters) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Australian farmers are set to churn out record harvests of pulses such as chickpeas and lentils after they rushed to take advantage of surging prices due to shortages in India. Prices of the key pulses, used to

make dishes such as curries, and also growing in popularity globally due to their high-protein content, soared above Cdn $903 per tonne earlier this year, according to National Australia Bank. Although markets have since

pulled back to around $691 per tonne, they are still well above longer term averages of $296 to $494, said Nick Goddard, chief executive of industry body Pulse Australia. The rise, largely driven by production shortfalls in India due to

gladesh and Pakistan. Little is consumed locally. As well as chickpeas and lentils, pulse crops include field peas, lupins and fava beans. Prices are expected to fall toward year-end as the Indian growing season gets off to a strong start and as producers such as Canada and Russia ramp up exports. But Pulse Australia has forecast export earnings from this yearwould likely hit a record A$1.9 billion, up from $1.2 billion in 2015. Goddard cautioned some farms in the state of New South Wales had recently had crops ruined by excessive rainfall, although he said the overall outlook remained strong. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even if we lose a bit because of the rain, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still going to be a very good year,â&#x20AC;? he said.

back-to-back droughts and irrigation problems, prompted Australian farmers to plant more pulse crops. A harvest of around four million tonnes is expected this year compared to 2.2 million last season, according to Pulse Australia. That should help cement Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position as a top five global exporter of pulses alongside nations such as Canada and China at a time when it is looking to rebalance its economy as a mining investment boom fades. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Prices) were double where they normally were,â&#x20AC;? said Phil Christie, a farmer in southeast Australia, explaining why he chose to plant 20 percent more chickpeas this season.

PLANT RESEARCH

The secret life of plants Scientists unravel the hidden world of plant communication that may help fend off disease, predators BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

For decades, scientists and crop protection companies have employed a straightforward approach to fight weeds, diseases and insects. Step one: find a chemical that controls a particular pest in a crop. Step two: convince farmers to spray the chemical on the crop. While chemistry remains the go-to solution for crop protection, a different form of chemistry might be the future of pest control. Scientists have shown that plants can communicate with other plants and can sense their surroundings using chemical signals. Those chemicals are released or absorbed when there are changes in environmental conditions or threats to the plant. “Plants are giving off signals all the time…. Plants communicate with chemicals…. If we had noses like dogs, maybe we could (sense) it,” said Jim Westwood, a professor in the department of plant pathology and weed science at Virginia Tech, based in

Blacksburg, Virginia. “(For example) a bug starts chewing on the leaf of one plant. That plant will then give off a (chemical) signal… that will alert nearby plants that there’s a herbivore in the area.” The idea that plants communicate to other plants and other species was a fringe area of science until the 2000s. But many experts now believe that plants can send and receive signals in multiple ways, including chemicals emitted into the air and soil, or underground signals via networks of fungi. “In the last 15 years, the idea that plants are communicating has become much more accepted,” Richard Karban, an evolutionary ecologist at the University of California, Davis, told The Scientist media outlet. “The evidence for that is now substantial and it’s exciting to unravel all these different realms of plant communication.” Jared Ali, an entomologist at Penn State university, said chemical ecology is the term used to describe a broad field that includes plant communication. The term is an amalgam of two fields of science. Ecology is the study of interactions in the natural world, such as increases in the population of prey species like deer when the population of wolves declines. “Chemical ecology introduces signalling to that paradigm,” said Ali, a member of the Center for Chemical Ecology at Penn State. “(There are) signals that play a vital role in how organisms communicate and interact.” One example from agriculture is an insect eating a plant leaf. In certain cases, the plant will discharge a chemical lure to attract insect predators that feed on the pest. Modern crops are still capable of such chemical signals but the natural ability has eroded due to plant breeding and because monoculture crops are unnatural, Ali said. “A lot of the defences that a plant might have in the wild gets lost in a domesticated plant,” he said. “There are these (natural) mechanisms that plants can repel things through odours, or defend themselves, that we’ve lost. We’re trying to re-establish what (plants) used to do.” Scientists who specialize in chemical ecology, like Ali and Westwood, are pursuing two research objectives: • recognizing the communication between plants, insects and pathogens and what the signals do • manipulating the signals to protect crops from weeds, insects and diseases Clarence Swanton, a University of Guelph weed scientist, has recently discovered a form of communication between plants and weeds. Swanton learned that corn seeds can sense when weeds are growing above ground. Sunlight reflected by the weeds penetrates the soil surface and the seeds detect the reflected light. The seeds respond by delaying germination, which often causes yield loss. “You might be able to engineer or select out that response. So… whether the competitor (weed) is there or not, the plant is going to put all of its energy into growth and reproduction,” Westwood said. “That’s the big goal… to understand all the complexities of the ecological interactions and do what you can to manipulate those.”

One practical application is spraying a crop with a pheromone to disrupt insect reproduction. Ali said this has been done with moths to “blind them” so they can’t detect mates, which drives down the moth population. “That’s insect-to-insect based,” Ali said. “There’s some work being done looking at how plants, when they’re damaged, release chemicals (that) attract predators…. People have been (trying) to re-arrange the genes that release that signal. Or put out (chemical) lures to… attract beneficial (insects).” Using these sorts of bio-chemical tools for crop protection may offer benefits to agriculture. It could reduce dependence on pesticides and the environmental impact of farming. As well, resistance to pesticides is usually inevitable so farmers need alternative solutions. “From my own weed science point of view, we’ve got herbicide resistance all over the place and new chemistries do nothing but kick that can down the road a little bit,” Westwood said. “We need new ideas and I think that comes from biology.” However, growers will need conventional pesticides for years because chemical ecology isn’t ready for prime time. Scientists need to understand how the chemical signals work before they can develop commercial products or strategies. “It’s still long term, in my view. More than 10 years,” Westwood said. Getting there will require more people and more money. Ali said there are positive signs, as the phrase “chemical ecology” is appearing in more grant applications and universities are hiring more people with an interest in the field. Westwood and Ali might believe that chemical ecology is on the ascent, but an Agriculture Canada scientist isn’t so sure. Gary Judd, an entomologist in Summerland, B.C., said the field of research has shrunk in Canada. “I would say chemical ecology is (now) on the decline, in terms of the number of scientists working in

the field,” he said. “When I was a grad student 30 years ago, there were far more students in chemical ecology than there are now.” Simon Fraser University has a group of specialists in chemical ecology and there are a few researchers at the University of Alberta, but there’s not much else in Canada, Judd said. Part of the challenge is a lack of funding. Research priorities and dollars for crop protection have shifted elsewhere. “All the funding in the last 15 to 20 years is going to genomics,” Judd said. “We’re going to control everything through genetic modification. There’s a lot of promise there…. (But) chemical ecology is losing ground to that sort of funding.” robert.arnason@producer.com

BEEF CONFERENCE

Beef experts share productivity advice Bigger carcass size is key to productivity, but that must go hand-in-hand with quality, low-fat meat to reap profits BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

When the Canadian beef strategy was released last year, one of its goals called for a productivity increase of 15 percent by 2020. During the Canadian beef industry conference held last month in Calgary, four major players explained their approach to achieving that goal. It involves better genetic selection, adoption of technology and improved information exchange. All the players spoke about the need to work more co-operatively and share information. “We are in the beef industry and we need to stop fighting each other for our piece,” said seedstock producer Kevin Blair of Blair’s.Ag Cattle Company, based at Lanigan, Sask. “We will be far more productive if we pull as one.” The Blairs run a fourth generation family operation with 1,200 registered red and black Angus, as well as Herefords. They sell their herd genetics to six countries. Blair’s also operates farm service outlets and employs 105 people. Blair said the hardships of the drought of 1988-89, and the market collapse caused by BSE in 2003, forced the industry to change for the better. People had to learn new ways of doing things. He says productivity is too broad to measure because it means different things to different segments of the industry, such as seedstock producers and feedlots. “Stay focused on your own business sector. You are responsible to your customers and your stakeholders. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be educated, but you

need to stay focused,” he said. The seedstock industry has to be educated as it works to provide better breeding stock to commercial operators. It also needs to entice more young people who have studied science, marketing and branding within a global context. “You need highly intelligent, motivated, driven people in the seedstock industry if we are going to increase productivity by 2020,” he said.

DARREN BEVANS DESERET RANCHES

Darren Bevans, who manages the Alberta operation for at Deseret Ranches, which operates ranches throughout the United States and Canada, said strength in numbers is key to the Alberta division. The division operates on 110,000 acres and maintains 7,000 cows and 2,000-3,000 summer yearlings. “It is easy when times are good and cattle prices are high, but when things get a little tough that is when t h i n g s l i k e p ro d u c t i v i t y a n d focused management really pay off,” Bevans said. Five years ago the company made major changes. Rather than each operating independently, it was decided to change to a vertically integrated system. New ideas have been adopted, such as swath grazing in winter and

selecting cattle for better feed efficiency. A geneticist helps develop better bulls to improve cow herds. Top genetics are developed and replicated through artificial insemination at the larger ranches to produce bulls used on all their commercial cows. The company bought a Kansas feedlot and for the last five years it has shipped all production through that yard. Information on performance is shared. “That has helped us and our strengths and weaknesses have become very clear to us.” Bevans said some of the biggest opportunities in the Canadian beef industry rely on working closer together. “We don’t have to be integrated but can work together through alliances and sharing information through systems and finding ways to capture value all the way through rather than fighting against each other,” he said. Feedlot operator Leighton Kolk of Picture Butte, Alta., said increased efficiency starts with people. The family owned operation was also willing to adopt new technology. Roller compacted concrete flooring was installed in pens to reduce mud. Cattle carrying too much mud are 10 to 20 percent less feed efficient, he said. Chute side computers are used to get instant data on every animal wearing an electronic ear tag as it passes through at processing. The company also uses near infrared technology to assess dried distillers grain, pellets and other feedstuffs to measure moisture, protein, digestible energy and fat content. A computer program is also used to deliver the correct ration to every pen of cattle.

Staff was taught low-stress handling techniques and new handling facilities were installed. “It cost a lot of money to install originally, but it pays back day after day,” Kolk said. They also use ultrasound so every heifer is pregnancy checked upon arrival because they do not want calves being born in the yard. Improved carcass quality is part of the beef strategy to produce more salable meat. At present, cattle are being fed to larger weights and consequently many are carrying too much fat, which has little value. “Genetics is one of the fastest ways we are going to get efficient in this business. When we are putting this much bark on the back of an animal to get Choice or AAA and then cut that fat off for four cents a pound it is not efficient,” Kolk said.

We want to maximize the carcass weight before the packer is going to take money out of our pocket for making it too heavy. But we don’t want to sell it before it’s time. LEIGHTON KOLK FEEDLOT OPERATOR

His company developed a computer program to project when cattle have achieved the target weight to earn the most profit. “We want to maximize the carcass weight before the packer is going to take money out of our pocket for making it too heavy. But we don’t want to sell it before it’s time,” Kolk said.

Norwich Packers, a small processor in Ontario, has had to carve out its own niche in a competitive market, said Matthew Heleniak of the family-owned company. It processes about 350 cattle per week and has about 2,500 to 3,000 head a year in three feedlots. There is also a 110 cow-calf operation. His grandparents started with a custom butcher shop. The company experienced considerable growth in the 1970s and by the mid1990s a new business plan was needed. It needed to get bigger or develop a niche. “We did not want to compete on a price basis or a commodity basis with a lot of those big players,” he said. They feed Limousin and other Continental breeds that are highyielding. Animals get special rations and are tagged to monitor weight gain and health. The company emphasizes humane handling to keep cattle calm and produce better beef. “Tenderness is a huge part of productivity. I think we lose a lot of productivity in the beef industry,” he said. “Poor beef hurts the whole business.” While some productivity measures can cost more, these operators contend that the result is a better, more valuable product. Yield is most important but they want less fat. Butchers trim steaks and roasts to a quarter inch fat depth. “We have to maximize our buying abilities to make sure I get product that has a maximum eating experience for everybody but at the same time leads to less waste at the end of the day,” he said. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

Genomic study aims to improve breeding selection Researchers use DNA to predict traits that affect feed efficiency, calf’s weaning weight and other factors to maximize profits BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

KINSELL A , Alta. — Ongoing work to select beef cattle with better feed efficiency shows that improvements are possible, but it’s slow going. Work at the Roy Berg Kinsella Research Ranch in east-central Alberta has evaluated the genetic progress of a crossbred herd of 400 cows as well as purebred Charolais and Angus herds. Data is collected on every animal to measure improvements throughout its life. “We are continuing to measure efficiencies but also keep our eye on all other important traits because we want to know and understand what our selection scheme is doing to these cattle. Whether it is good or bad, we want to know,” Agriculture Canada researcher Caroline Fitzsimmons said during a recent field day at the research site, which involves researchers from the public and private sectors. “We wanted to make a multi-trait index because we don’t advocate single trait selection at any time.… We also want to know if residual feed intake is measured in a young animal, does it translate to an older cow.” The main herd used for research is the Kinsella composite herd, descendents of cattle owned by Roy Berg, a former dean of the University of Alberta who created synthetic beef lines by crossing Hereford, Angus and Galloways. The replacements were selected on the basis of fertility in the females and growth in the males. Females had to calve at two years of age rather than three, and the bulls were put on a 140 day feed trial to see which gained the most. Berg’s research was initially controversial because such crosses were not generally used decades ago. His work measured the performance of crossbreds and purebred cattle under the same selection and environment criteria. The crossbreds performed better. The descendents of the program were eventually maintained as a special commercial research herd, and the offspring are used in the current genomic research.

Starting in 2012, DNA information was used to select for residual feed intake to align feed consumption with growth. Cattle received their feed through the electronic Grow Safe feeding system to measure how much they ate and gained. Two calf crops have been analyzed since 2013, which will eventually increase to five. A small improvement of less than one percent has been noted, which is consistent with other studies of this type, said Fitzsimmons.

When you select for one trait, then you lose out on other traits and your herd is all over the place. MIKE VINSKY AGRICULTURE CANADA

There is evidence that different diets, environments and stages of life can affect efficiency so cattle will be measured when they are young and when they are mature. The plan is to eventually develop a maternal profitability index designed to maximize profit at the commercial level. This takes into consideration feed efficiency, the calf’s weight and the dam’s influence on weaning weight. The final calculation will show how much that trait contributes to profit. Similar studies are also being conducted on the station’s Angus and Charolais herds. The idea is to select better animals at the breeding level. There are about 120 animals in each herd. Mike Vinsky of Agriculture Canada said multiple trait selection is practiced with these two groups because commercial producers need consistency, which may be affected by single trait selection. “When you select for one trait, then you lose out on other traits and your herd is all over the place,” he said. “Then when you take them to slaughter you are not making money, you are losing it.” The researchers are using DNA to predict traits such as feed efficien-

cy and other economically valuable qualities. A DNA profile should be able to tell the producer how good the animal is or whether it has a certain trait. However, the work is slow and commonly used genomics tests look only at a small section of DNA of 50,000 markers known as SNPs. “In the bovine genome there are

30 million markers, so we are only using what is available to us, and the accuracy is not the best,” he said. “That is something we are working on in the next few years, to increase markers we use for selection.” Some improvement has been found in feed efficiency but none in

weaning weight in the first year. This is expected to improve slowly over time. In addition, the Charolais herd is being ranked to create a feedlot profit index, which includes information such as hot carcass weight, saleable meat yield and marbling. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

CATTLE PARASITES

Remember warbles? They’re still around ANIMAL HEALTH

amount of hide and internal damage caused by larvae migrating close to the spine or the esophagus, and the breathing holes created when they pupate. The cattle then try to protect themselves with a warble. I haven’t seen one of these breathing holes for more than 20 years and had thought the warble fly was all but exterminated from Canada. Slaughter audits done in the 1990s showed a very low incidence of damage from cattle grubs after treatment, around 0.1 percent. It decreased to less than that about five years later.

to these products so clinical cases have been almost eliminated in Canada. Would they return if we were to stop treating? Dr. Doug Colwell is a leading expert on warbles and other external parasites and conducts research at the Agriculture Canada Lethbridge Research Centre. From 2008-10 he and his colleagues did a lot of blood sampling looking for cattle’s exposure to warble flies during the summer. Antibody evidence suggests the flies are still out there and between 25 and 50 percent of the cattle population shows exposure. There may be some resident untreated cattle that harbour the larval forms of this parasite and allow the life cycle to complete itself. The larvae will survive in horses and bison but evidence suggests the insects don’t live to become a viable fly. Recently a few bison hides were seen with warble holes so we know the larvae reach the back. Horses were once highly affected but decreased incidence in cattle allowed their problems to disappear as well. A few ranches were also sampled and one in particular showed an increase in two wet years. Another ranch had not undergone any treatment the previous year and its exposure rate was higher. Colwell and others have found that a certain amount of the larval stages are killed during their migration through the body and don’t make it to the skin surface. If even one larva survives, we will see it inside the warble. Several countries including Great Britain went on an aggressive campaign to eradicate warbles and were able to do so but it took many years. Other countries in Europe have tried and failed because neighboring countries did not have a program. There are many questions to be asked as resistance to common treatments develops. Do we need to redevelop lice and warble specific products? Evidence shows that if warbles are not treated they will come back, but how long will that take? Should we treat for warbles using the macrocytic lactones every two or three years? There should be a reporting system if any warble damage is found at packing plants, feedlots or veterinary clinics so traceback could occur to find the herd source. Surveillance must continue so we can keep watch for what once was a serious weight loss and carcass damaging condition of the entire Canadian cattle herd.

WATER SUPPLEMENT SYSTEM

Creep watering attachment designed especially for calves A 250-pound calf needs about two gallons of water daily

Livestock and Forage Centre of Excellence (LFCE) A unique research, teaching and outreach centre that unites the U of S with livestock and forage producers, the agriculture industry, and provincial and federal governments.

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Jeff Anderson says there is some debate about whether pre-weaned calves need supplemental water to complement their mother’s milk. Some producers believe it best for calves to get their entire liquid intake from milk because of its associated nutrients and immunological benefits. Others believe calves should supplement milk intake with water as desired, especially if their dam has low milk supply or when summer temperatures are high. “For the longest time, we muddled in that debate,” said Anderson, head of sales and marketing with Frostfree Nosepumps Ltd. based in Rimbey, Alta. “We ultimately decided why should we get involved in that debate. Let’s offer an option so that regardless of what the producer’s philosophy is, we can cater to that.” That’s when the company developed a creep watering attachment for the standard Frostfree Nosepump that allows calves to access free choice water at the pump site. Frostfree Nosepumps, developed in 2002 by company founder Jim Anderson, allow animals to pump their own water year-round by pressing their noses against a mechanical piston pump that draws water from sources below the frost zone. With the creep water attachment, a small amount of the water pumped by larger animals is diverted to a small line that feeds a trough. Three 10-foot panels form a triangle around the trough, with one of them arranged for creep access by calves. Anderson said the company is now on its third prototype for the calf waterer and is pleased with its result. “This was feedback that we were getting from a certain cross section of prospective customers so that’s why we decided to go ahead and develop it,” he said. “Anything that we can do with our product to make it more appealing to a broader scope of producers is obviously going to benefit everyone.” Calves learn to operate the nose pump as their mothers do, but one aspect of the Frostfree Nosepump is that the deeper the water source, the harder animals must push to pump water. That means younger or weaker calves may not be able to operate the pump until they reach a certain size, Anderson said. The creep waterer addresses that issue. “Ultimately our goal is to maximize production while minimizing inputs to create a more effective result from our livestock operation. If we’re ultimately shorting our calves a bit because our (water) source is too deep or their mother doesn’t have enough milk, then they’re not going to grow to their

maximum potential and they’re not going to fetch maximum dollar at market.” Anderson said the creep waterer is a fairly simple addition to existing Frostfree Nosepumps and once installed, it has no ongoing cost. However, because it is above ground, the creep attachment can only be used in above-zero temperatures. Alberta Agriculture’s farm water

supply branch indicates calves in the 250 pound range require two gallons of water per day. If temperatures are 25 C or higher, three gallons per day are required. Cows with calves need 12 gallons per day, or 18 on days above 25 C. Feeder cattle need four to 10 gallons daily depending on their size. barb.glen@producer.com

For Janice Bruynooghe, the Livestock and Forage Centre of Excellence (LFCE) isn’t just about research. It’s about creating a network between all facets of the livestock industry and research. The goal, she says, is a level of interconnectivity that not only best reflects those relationships that already exist but, moreover, promotes a strengthening of those bonds. “Rather than cutting the pie into little pieces and just focusing on one aspect, we’re going to come at it from a broader approach. That’s why I think particularly for our combined industry, the approach of the centre is going to work — and the return is going to be huge,” she says. The LFCE is a project aimed at uniting all aspects of livestock and forage production under a single umbrella. Bruynooghe, who is a partner in Spring Creek Land and Cattle Consulting, is a professional agrologist and has a background in livestock and forage production. She has been helping to oversee the LFCE’s development as a member of the project’s steering committee. Bruynooghe believes the LFCE has the potential to elevate the U of S and Saskatchewan as a whole to a new tier in the research and production of livestock and forage. “There’s no doubt that Saskatchewan is seen as a leader [in these areas]. But we have an incredible opportunity through the LFCE to expand that even further — both into Western Canada and nationally, but also internationally,” she says. “We’ve got the pieces right now but by adding to it we’re creating a hub of expertise here.” The first step of that process is creating a more effective connection between research and industry partners. “I think that the integration the centre of excellence provides is going to give us the opportunity for industry and researchers to be more closely linked,” she says. The LFCE is especially exciting for Bruynooghe in its ability to create a meaningful step forward in research. “Ranchers and producers — they’re looking for new management options, they’re looking for new technologies. We need to increase capacity, and that’s what we’re going to get,” says Bruynooghe, whose family raises beef cattle and forage near Outlook, Sask. “The future will look bright for the next generation of producers.” Bruynooghe believes the centre’s lasting legacy will be found in the students. “If we look at potential students, the resources we’re going to be able to provide them and improve upon are huge. Our university is already seen as top notch when it comes to agriculture and agriculture research, but this centre will be a real flagship in Canada.” For more information, visit usask.ca/lfce.

CALGARY — Prairie farmers have relied on borrowed money since 1812 when the first Selkirk settlers ran lines of credit to buy axes, seed and supplies from the Hudson Bay company. Since then, sources of farm credit have expanded to include banks and credit unions, along with federal and provincial governments. As land and input prices continue to drive up the cost of farming, a new form of farm credit has emerged. Canada is witnessing the entrance of ag-savvy investors who write the cheque to a specific farmer, who they think will give them a solid and secure long-term return. The transaction does not involve banks, credit unions or government programs. The deal is put together by a new Canadian company called Area One Farms, launched by Ontario dairy farmer Joelle Faulkner in 2012. Faulkner locates an investor who wants to invest in farmland. She matches that investor with a Canadian farmer who wants to expand, but doesn’t want the risk of dealing with conventional lending houses. She emphasizes that Area One Farms will not negotiate deals that would jeopardize the home farm. One of the first Canadian producers to access this new financing system is Jordan Webber, who crops 5,000 acres and runs a 600 head cow-calf operation with his family north of Coronation, Alta. “Our family farm, as it’s grown over the 100 years we’ve been farming, has used all possible sources of credit at different times,” says Webber. “As our margins become tighter and our risks go up, we found ourselves in a position where traditional financing would no longer serve our growth strategy. “The big rent dollars weren’t fitting our model and the big debt and interest costs weren’t something we were interested in. Personally, with a younger family, it just wasn’t in the cards for us. Even with the equity in our long-term family farm, the risk didn’t justify the debt.” Webber runs the farm in partnership with his uncle. He says their mutual dilemma is that they need to grow the farm to make room for the uncle’s sons, who want to farm too. Webber says although his

Jordan Webber of Coronation, Alta., says the Area One Farms partnership will allow his family to expand. | RON LYSENG PHOTO cousins have skills for the farm, including ag training and accounting, 5,000 acres isn’t enough to support two new households. Farmers in his area, just like farmers all across the Prairies, are in an expansion mode. Suitable land isn’t always available. When it does come up for sale, it’s snapped up quickly and at premium prices. The family’s growth plan was in limbo when fate sepped in. “Then we ran into Area One Farms. They wanted to bring capital in a way that would partner with us through equity rather than debt. As farmers, we’re always sceptical, but the more we looked at how their model was built specifically to fit a farm, the more we realized this could be an incredible opportunity for us. “So we partnered with Area One Farms to do a large expansion that will accommodate my two cousins who want to move home.” Webber explains that the expansion had to be large enough and it had to be financially viable if they expected the farm to support two more households. Working with Faulkner, the Webber family developed an expansion plan that carried a $7.8 million price tag. He says 85 percent of the money came from Area One Farms investors. The price of farmland in many parts of Alberta is skewed because of oil lease revenue. However,

that’s a positive factor for potential investors because land maintains passive income value should the bottom fall out of farming. “We own the portion (of land) that we purchased outright. We manage the new land and we earn a portion of the profit for doing that, plus a portion of the appreciation over time. We purchased as large of a portion outright as we could with the risk we could tolerate. Area One brought in the balance of the capital to complete the deal. That’s the 85 percent portion.

We formed a separate company that owns all the new land. This company is jointly owned by us and the investors. It’s a separate entity. JORDAN WEBBER ALBERTA FARMER

“We formed a separate company that owns all the new land. This company is jointly owned by us and the investors. It’s a separate entity. “The investors basically remain anonymous. I have met some of them who were interested in coming to our farm and visiting with us, and that’s actually been really fun,

but most of them choose to remain anonymous.” Webber knows the best laid plans can go awry, but risking the home farm was never in the cards. He says the deal is structured to protect the farmer. “Area One can’t guarantee what the future holds. After 10 years, with our appreciation and with our profit, we’ll be able to buy them out at market value at that time. If t h i n g s d o n ’ t w o rk e x a c t l y a s planned for us, I’m comfortable the market will be at a place where we can re-new a portion of the deal “We’ll do our best to purchase what we can. And the balance, if we’re not able to do the deal, would be available back to the investor.” Webber says he’s not stressed about the investors calling in their loan. He says they understand the economics of agriculture and they have an empathy for farming. “We know that in the next two decades, traditional investment opportunities are going to be sideways. An investment opportunity like Area One means you’re working with good people and your working with good assets. It’s a very good place to put capital over the long-term. “So the answer to the question is emphatically ‘Yes’ I would invest in a farm expansion if I was an investor.” ron.lyseng@producer.com

Agrium to divest stores in retail deal WINNIPEG (Reuters) — Crop Production Services, a farm retail subsidiary of fertilizer producer Agrium Inc, has agreed to sell four Alberta stores to resolve competition concerns around its proposed purchase of Andrukow Group Solutions. CPS agreed in April to buy Andrukow’s 17 farm retail stores in the Alberta and one in Saskatchewan for an undisclosed price. Agrium also announced it was in merger talks with Potash Corp of Saskatchewan. That deal, potentially worth more than $25 billion if completed, is also expected to face regulatory scrutiny.

FINANCIAL PICTURE

Cost of production analysis key factor in management PERSPECTIVES ON MANAGEMENT

TERRY BETKER

observe how farm management is evolving over time. It’s a relatively slow but constant process, affected at times by the strength of farming economy. In my opinion, the changes are for the better because the changes have resulted in improved farm business management. Farm Management Canada and the Agri-food Management Institute recently published results from their D ollars and S ense report. The study identified seven top practices that lead to farm financial success. You can find more information on the report, including printable copies, at www.fmc-gac. com. Two of the practices have direct correlation to recent discussions I’ve had with a couple of farm families. I think these discussions will be common at many farms this fall and winter. One of the farmers who called me mentioned that, based on the current prices available for his products, his margin has fallen, on average, to $5 per tonne over his cost of production. This is quite a change from what he’s been able to achieve in the past few years. His comment is tied to one of the top practices identified in the study: Know and monitor your cost of production and what it means for your profits. Assuming that he’s included all costs, he will still be reporting a profit. And, as the saying goes, you can’t go broke making a profit. You can run out of cash though. This happens when your non-expense cash outlays (capital investment, principal repayment) are greater than the profit you’re generating to turn into cash to meet these commitments. This isn’t usually an issue in the short term as the shortfall can likely be absorbed through normal operations. In the longer term though, a farmer will have to align the cash flow coming from the narrow profit with his or her commitments. Failing to get profit margins and cash outflow requirements aligned leads to problems that become increasingly difficult to manage. Knowing your cost of production is important at all times. It is increasingly important to know where your profit margins are as margins shrink. As soon as your costs of production exceed revenue generation, you are reporting a loss. Losses chew into equity. Again, in the shorter term, this usually isn’t an issue. Longer term losses though, obviously not so good. Longer term or sustained losses lead to one of the most difficult discussions I ever have with farm families. How far do you go with negative margins — and with eroding equity

— before you make significant changes? There is no easy answer to this question. There’s another management saying that is relevant to this discussion: you generally can’t cut expenses fast enough to compensate for falling revenue. This will be true for many farm families, depending on the severity of the revenue challenges they’re facing. In this instance, it’s better management to know what the costs of production are so you can more quickly adjust your costs. Another part of cost of production discussion is a function of a farmer’s production strategy. There is a range to the strategies farmers use when it comes to yield.

Discussing how far to go into the red before making management changes is important. | FILE PHOTO At one end, there are farmers who maximize inputs in an attempt to maximum yield. At the other end, there are farmers who focus more on optimizing profit margins than on maximum yields. Farmers are both ends of the spectrum need to know their cost

of production, and that must include all costs. The second call I had was from a farmer who had reported losses for the past two years and was concerned about his ability and his need to generate profit for 2016. That led to a discussion about cost of production. In this case though, while his input costs were accurate, he hadn’t included the detail in his overhead, or fixed costs. So, he was missing a significant piece of cost information. The latter farmer’s comments are tied to another of the top practices identified in the study. Make business decisions using accurate financial data. I know farmers who use both ends of the production strategy

successfully. They know where their costs and margins are because they use accurate financial data. The improvement in farm business management practices is wide-ranging. Some areas have seen greater advancements than others. Agronomy has seen some quite strong changes. While financial management has improved well, there remains room for improvement. Farmers absolutely need to have really good financial information. Especially when margins narrow. Terry Betker is a farm management consultant based in Winnipeg, Man.

Canola and barley are basis par region. Feed wheat basis Lethbridge. Basis is best bid.

Due to wide reporting and collection methods, it is misleading to compare hog prices between provinces.

RAIN AND ROSES |

Frequent and sometimes heavy rain in central Alberta was good for pasture growth and an unusual Aug. 27 sighting of a wild rose near Killam, but bad for haying progress. The North Saskatchewan River rose more than three metres the same week. | KAREN MORRISON PHOTO
