AN OLD-TIMEY MAD DASH

Spring wheat futures soaring BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Spring wheat futures topped US$8 per bushel July 3, reaching levels not seen since 2013. The Minneapolis September contract has gained more than $2.50 per bu. in about six weeks. A bullish U.S. Department of Agriculture acreage report, released June 30, pushed futures prices for spring wheat and most crops higher. However, the real driver is drought in the northern U.S. Plains, where most spring wheat is grown, said Greg Kostal, commodity market analyst and owner of Kostal Ag Consulting in Winnipeg. “Hands down, if the USDA report didn’t come out, the market would have went higher anyway because of the perception of weather,” he said. “There’s a pretty dominant, blocking drought pattern in the western half of North Dakota, eastern half of Montana. And it’s expected to persist the next two weeks.” FOR RELATED STORY, SEE PAGE 6

Canola finally out-seeds wheat More canola planted than wheat for the first time, but surging soybean acres may change that BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

King wheat has finally lost its crown, but analysts believe it has been only temporarily misplaced.

For the first time ever, Canadian farmers planted more canola than all wheat, including durum, according to Statistics Canada. Growers planted a record 22.8 million acres of the oilseed versus

22.4 million acres of the cereal, according to the agency’s June seeding report. Wayne Palmer, senior market analyst with Agri-Trend, said canola’s time at the top will be short-lived.

“It will be a one-year wonder.” Spring wheat is in the midst of a price rally that he believes is just getting its legs. SEE CANOLA, PAGE 4

CANOLAPALOOZA TOUR

Don’t just spray Inspect nozzles, rate controller, boom height and droplet size to get the most for your money BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

PORTAGE LA PRAIRIE, Man. — Farmers can find the money to buy sprayers but often don’t find the time to check their nozzles. It’s a problem that can result in waste of expensive chemicals, poor results with crops and drift problems for neighbours. However, it’s a problem many farmers don’t even realize they have. “In the age of automatic rate control, a lot of farmers see their rate consistent on their display in their (cab) and they assume everything is right,” Matthew Kynoch of Enns Brothers said in an interview during the Canolapalooza event at Portage la Prairie. “With all the expensive chemicals we’re putting down and the products we are using, are they actually being applied evenly with the droplet size we want?” Worn nozzles aren’t a new concern. At one time they were one of the main things farmers would think about.

Matthew Kynoch of Enns Brothers told participants at Canolapalooza in Portage la Prairie, Man., that sprayer nozzle inspections are often overlooked. | ED WHITE PHOTO However, with all the new chemicals and the increasingly complex systems inside the sprayer, simply checking the status of the nozzles can be overlooked. As well, many farmers are just getting back into doing their own spraying after using custom application services. “Custom acres are down, down, down,” said Kynoch. That means farmers need to be on top of their spraying requirements, which can be a challenge when it is

something that is done only a few times every season. It’s easy to forget or overlook basic elements of good spraying. “You need to be familiar with rinsing,” Kynoch said. “You need to make sure that your nozzles are inspected. You need to be familiar with how your rate controller works. You need to understand the importance of boom height and lots of other things.” Another challenge is the addition of Xtend soybeans, which is bring-

ing an old chemistry back onto the fields. Nobody wants to see that drifting into their other crops. Worn nozzles can substantially reduce the effectiveness of spraying by producing droplets of the wrong size that are unevely distributed. Electronic gauges don’t always reveal problems out on the boom. “A lot of times guys don’t realize their nozzles are worn until they break one off or they have a plugged one and they put a new one on and

they realize their neighbours definitely don’t look like the new one,” said Kynoch. ed.white@producer.com

CARBON TAX

Varied carbon policies raise competition fears Alberta has instituted a carbon levy but exempted farm fuel, while Ontario farmers will have to pay additional fuel costs BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

A $50 per tonne carbon tax will cost the average prairie farmer about $3,700 a year in higher operating expenses, based on an Agriculture Canada document from earlier this year. In comparison, a $50 per tonne levy will cost the average eastern Canadian farmer about $2,400 annually, iPolitics reported in June. iPolitics received the information through an Access to Information request. The document was a memo to Agriculture Minister Lawrence MacAulay that was prepared by Agriculture Canada staff. Canadian Federation of Agriculture president Ron Bonnett said there isn’t enough information yet on carbon tax policies to comment on the memo or to know if the numbers are accurate. “This whole thing has been put together with the federal govern-

ment setting the mandate and provincial governments (deciding) what they’re going to do,” he said, adding that provincial proposals and policies are inconsistent. “It’s all over the map, and I think that’s one of the biggest issues we’ve had … is consistency of approach from province to province, which is not there.” The inconsistencies are hard to

RON BONNETT CANADIAN FEDERATION OF AGRICULTURE

miss. For example, the Alberta government, the only prairie province to institute a carbon levy so far, has

exempted farm fuels. Ontario farmers are pushing for a similar exemption, but the province is rejecting the concept. “There hasn’t been wiggle (on an exemption) at the provincial level,” Bonnett said. Assuming a $50 per tonne price on carbon emissions, the Agriculture Canada document said the average farmer in Eastern Canada would see the fuel bill go up by $1,500 annually. The average prairie farmer would likely pay $2,300 more in fuel because of the carbon tax. However, such estimates are meaningless if one province has an exemption for farm fuel and the next one doesn’t. Lacking a consistent national policy, it’s difficult to say what the “average” farmer will pay in carbon taxes. Even in Alberta, where there is a consistent policy, the government hasn’t released estimates of what a typical producer will pay. Andrew Leach, associate profes-

sor at the Alberta School of Business who chaired the Alberta Climate Leadership Panel and is a major contributor to Alberta’s carbon program, said Alberta hasn’t issued such estimates because there’s too much variability from farm to farm. Bonnett said the amount of carbon tax would vary from “commodity to commodity.” For example, greenhouse operators rely on natural gas in the winter, and a carbon tax would increase

heating costs. Irrigators, on the other hand, might pay higher rates for electricity. Keystone Agricultural Producers president Dan Mazier in Manitoba also said it’s difficult to comment on national estimates. “Since the federal government has left it up to the provinces, on a province-by-province basis, we really don’t know what those numbers mean to Manitoba.” Like Bonnett, Mazier is more worried about differences in policies within Canada and what that could mean for KAP members. “That’s a real headache for everybody,” he said. “We (Manitoba farmers) don’t want to be uncompetitive with Saskatchewan, never mind about our competitors to the south.” robert.arnason@producer.com FOR THE FINAL INSTALMENT OF OUR CARBON PRICING SPECIAL REPORT, SEE PAGE 50.

ALBERTA JUDGE

Compulsory farm safety training advised

BEE AUTOPSY

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

An Alberta provincial court judge recommends that farm safety training be made compulsory in all postsecondary agriculture programs and that the government develop a compulsory regime of safety certification on farm equipment. The recommendations stem from a public fatality inquiry following the death of Stephen Murray Gibson on Jan. 31, 2014. He was killed in a power take-off at Hamilton Farms near Cochrane, Alta. Judge Anne Brown made the recommendations in a May 8 ruling on Gibson’s death. The government made her report public June 29. Gibson’s death occurred when he and his employer, Robert Hamilton, were processing grain through a roller, which involved use of an auger to move the product. When the auger plugged, Gibson first shut off the p.t.o. attached to the tractor, cleared some of it by hand and then restarted the p.t.o. and tried to further clear the blockage. “Before Mr. Hamilton’s horrified gaze, part of Mr. Gibson’s clothing caught on the unshielded p.t.o. and drew Mr. Gibson into the machinery, killing him instantly,” the report read. Gibson, 46, was an experienced agricultural worker with 23 years of work history on cattle ranches in Canada and Australia. He had been working at Hamilton Farms for about three months when the incident occurred. The report noted the p.t.o. did not have safety shields at the time Hamilton bought it from a neighbour. During the second day of the fatality inquiry in 2014, the Alberta government passed the Enhanced Protection for Farm and Ranch Workers Act, which came into effect Jan. 1, 2016. It entitled paid farm workers, as Gibson was, to protection under the Occupational Health and Safety Act and to workers compensation. “Alberta Agriculture and Forestry has considerable educational and training resources for promoting safety on farms and ranches,” Brown said in her report. “But use of such resources is still largely elective, except to the extent that OHS and WC compliance now requires it.” The judge went on to make the two recommendations, noting they may require a “cross-ministry initiative” to implement in post-secondary programs. Annual safety certification of farm equipment, including p.t.o.s, may also involve the labour department, the judge said. Canadian agricultural industry reporting indicates p.t.o.s are the most common equipment involving entanglement fatalities. In Alberta, they were responsible for nine of the 29 on-farm deaths between 1990 and 2009, according to provincial statistics. On June 29, the same time that the Gibson fatality report was made public, Alberta Justice Minster Kathleen Ganley announced a tracking system for fatality inquiry recommendations. It will be found at open.alberta.ca/ publications. barb.glen@producer.com

CANOLA OUTSHINES WHEAT » CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

CANOLA VS. WHEAT

“There is going to be fireworks for the rest of the summer,” said Palmer, a former futures broker and former futures trader on the Winnipeg Commodity Exchange. In his 40 years in the grain business, he has never seen such a localized drought as the one in the northern U.S. Plains, where the rain keeps missing large portions of South Dakota, North Dakota and Montana. Crop condition ratings are abysmal and deteriorating with each passing week. “If this week is any indication, you’re looking at US$10 per bushel for Minneapolis wheat futures, for sure,” he said in June 29. “I just think this is going to be a heck of a year.” Those kinds of prices will quickly win back wheat acres in Canada, but he isn’t convinced wheat lost its spot as the top crop in 2017. Palmer thinks Statistics Canada’s canola number is overstated. He believes it is closer to 22 million acres because of abandonment. A look at trend lines shows canola acres have been rapidly climbing the last few decades while wheat area has been on the slide. Chuck Penner, analyst with LeftField Commodity Research, said it is not a given that the trend will continue. “It’s hard to say whether it’s the future or not,” he said. That is because of the astonishing ascent in soybean acres in Manitoba and Saskatchewan at the expense of canola and other crops. “It’s possible this could be the peak year for canola,” he said. Growers planted 2.29 million acres of soybeans in Manitoba, a 40 percent increase over last year, and 850,000 acres in Saskatchewan, a whopping 250 percent increase. “It’s actually surprising that canola can even hold its place

Canola seeded acreage in Canada has gained serious momentum in the past decade and has now edged out wheat as the most popular crop in Canada. Statistics Canada data shows farmers planted 22.8 million acres of canola this year, compared to 22.4 million acres of wheat. Analysts say wheat may again surge to the lead next year.

with that type of shift going on,” said Penner. Errol Anderson, analyst with ProMarket Wire, agreed with Palmer that wheat has only temporarily lost its crown. The protein market is on fire, and he b e l i e v e s i t w i l l re m a i n h o t through next spring. He isn’t as bullish as Palmer, but he believes Minneapolis wheat futures could take a run at $8, up from $5.50 this spring. “Who would have ever dreamt of a massive wheat rally like this?” said Anderson. If the protein market remains strong, farmers could plant more wheat and less canola next year. He believes barley could turn “red hot” because there is an export program into China, which is leaving Lethbridge feedlots scrambling for feed. “Products that growers were down in the mouth about, wheat and barley, could turn out to be the stars this year,” he said. Anderson said the June Statistics Canada acreage report had

little impact on crop prices. Market attention is focused elsewhere. “It’s going to get forgotten because July weather trumps it,” he said. Drought in the northern U.S. Plains has crept into the southern Canadian Prairies, and prominent weather forecasters are calling for a dry finish to the summer. A hot and dry July would reduce yields and spark a price rally for many commodities because demand is “super,” said Anderson. Pe n n e r a g re e d t h a t i t h a s become a weather market. He saw few surprises in the seeding report. The numbers weren’t too far off Statistics Canada’s April seeding intentions report or analysts’ expectations. Penner was mildly surprised that both barley and oat plantings fell slightly from the April report, but he thinks the June report maybe failed to capture late shifts into those crops due to seeding delays. Hard red spring wheat was up 830,000 acres over last year to

13.85 million acres. He believes that is partly because of the reclassification of some wheat into the new Canada Northern Hard Red class and to decent prices in the spring. One thing that caught Penner’s eye was the estimate of 5.2 million acres of durum, which was above the average analyst estimate of five million acres. “Maybe if there is a bit of a surprise, that might be one of them. That’s not going to be friendly for the market,” he said. Farmers are growing more lentils than peas for the third straight year: 4.4 million acres of lentils and 4.1 million acres of peas. Analyst Larry Weber of Weber Commodities points out that history shows Statistics Canada tends to underestimate lentils and overestimate peas in the June report. Based on the previous six-year average, he expects lentils to climb to 4.8 million acres by the final estimate and peas to fall to 3.9 million acres. Anderson said the 28 percent decline in mustard acres from last year piqued his interest. “Right now there’s nothing bullish about the mustard market, but give us six months,” he said. Palmer said nothing really caught his attention in the acreage report. He is instead fixated on the steadily rising wheat futures markets. “This year if you grew wheat, finally you’re going to get a great return,” he said. sean.pratt@producer.com

Organic feed imports may decline

New tools help producers fight fusarium

Quality concerns and safety worries could slow overseas feedgrain shipments BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

The organic livestock trade in North America has been importing feedgrains for the last few years from countries such as China, India and Bulgaria to supplement a shortage in the United States and Canada. That buying practice may soon decelerate because it could be harming the industry’s reputation and some buyers aren’t happy with the quality of the imported product, says an organic inspector in Manitoba. “I’m anticipating that we’re going to see imports drop dramatically,” said Stuart McMillan, secretary with the International Organic Inspectors Association. “I wouldn’t be surprised to see if they’ve already dropped, in the past two months.” The validity of organic feed imports to supply production of organic milk or eggs in North America became a significant story in May when the Washington Post ran a piece on imported organic corn and soy that wasn’t organic. The Post reported on three fraudulent shipments, including 36 million pounds of soybeans that originated in Ukraine and were shipped through Turkey en route to Stockton, California.

The beans started the journey as conventional feed but miraculously earned an “organic” label during the trip, increasing the value of the shipment by $4 million. Organic grain buyers have been importing feedgrains, mostly from Asia and Eastern Europe, for a few years because there wasn’t sufficient production in Canada and the U.S. However, there have been concerns about the legitimacy of organic practices in China, India and Ukraine, which is often ranked as the most corrupt country in Europe. The Washington Post story shone a bright light on the issue, McMillan said. “It was already being investigated and worked on at the level of the justice department, the USDA and right down to (organic) certifiers,” he said. “Our system is working as it should to address and catch potential fraudulent operators.” The Post article focused on imports entering the U.S., but Canada also imports organic soybeans, corn and other feed ingredients. The federal government doesn’t keep data on imports of organic feed, so it’s difficult to estimate volumes.

“I know they are coming in. I don’t know how much,” Becky Lipton, executive director of Organic Alberta, said last year. “There’s a shortage across the b o a rd i n No r t h A m e r i c a… . There’s a shortage of all organic grains. That includes feed and food grade.” Mc Mi l l a n s a i d i m p o r t i n g organic feed became a necessity in 2014 and 2015 because of a significant shortfall in the U.S. and Canada. Supplies were so tight that American growers were rejecting offers of $15 per bushel for organic corn. “The buyers, who were supplying the feed mills, couldn’t pay enough to pull out the last few kernels kicking around in the bin,” McMillan said. “They were pulling (organic) milling wheat out of Canada and putting it into chicken rations in the States.” O r ga n i c b u y e r s t u r n e d t o imports, and the practice quickly became a normal part of the industry. However, some in the organic trade are now asking questions about the quality and credibility of imported grain. McMillan has spoken to organic livestock producers on Canada’s West Coast who were dissatisfied with imported soymeal.

“ They felt (suppliers) had squeezed so much oil out it was lacking in energy. They found production differences between domestic and imported feed ingredients.” As well, in the wake of the Post coverage, organic retailers might put more pressure on suppliers to ensure that organic milk or organic eggs are legitimately organic. “I would say overall this (media) coverage … will strengthen domestic markets (for organic feed),” McMillan said. Organic grain buyers now have more options because organic production in North America increased in 2016. “Currently, right now, we are not short (organic) feedgrains,” McMillan said. “Barring a disaster in 2017 we’ll probably have sufficient domestic supply to meet that (domestic) demand.” Organic grain supplies, in Canada at least, should expand in the next few years because the industry has been attracting new entrants. The number of farmers beginning the three year transition to organic jumped in 2016, so there should be more growers and additional grain production by 2019. robert.arnason@producer.com

Online risk assessment shows severity index BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Alberta wheat growers who are concerned about fusarium head blight now have access to a new tool that allows them to monitor the disease, assess risk and make informed disease management decisions. The Alberta fusarium head blight risk tool was developed by the Alberta Wheat Commission and the Alberta Climate Information Service (ACIS) with help from researchers at Alberta Agriculture and Agriculture Canada. The tool uses hourly weather data collected at more than 370 weather stations across the province and converts the information into a disease severity index. The index is expressed numerically and updated hourly, providing farmers with an accurate localized picture of fusarium risk in their specific production areas. Risk calculations are based on a seven-day history of rain, temperature and humidity. The tool can be used on mobile devices including smartphones, which allows farmers to remotely view hourly updates on fusarium severity for their specific locations. “The key to a successful growing season is to have the best information possible when it comes to risks that our crops face,” said AWC chair Kevin Auch. “With FHB becoming more problematic in Alberta, a full scope of risk will be a major help with decision making when it comes to fungicide applications for disease control.” Fusarium has become an increasingly prevalent disease affecting wheat and other cereal grain crops in Alberta. It has been affecting producers in the eastern Prairies for many years but more recently it has been moving west through Saskatchewan and Alberta, thanks partly to weather conditions that are conducive to its spread. The AWC risk tool was developed in response to the increased threat. The commission initiated the project along with ACIS unit lead Ralph Wright and technical analyst Pawel Pytlack. Other experts involved in the project included Alberta Agriculture plant pathologist Michael Harding, provincial plant disease researcher Neil Whatley and Agriculture Canada plant disease researcher Kelly Turkington. “Each day, ACIS collects nearly 130,000 hourly weather observations from more than 370 stations province wide,” said Wright. “Weather conditions have enormous impacts on farming operations. Coupling the weather observations to a risk tool is a fantastic example of how weather data can be used to help producers make timely, informed decisions.” Alberta farmers can find the tool at agriculture.alberta.ca/acis/ m#!fusarium.

Spring wheat futures sizzle as U.S. crop fries The drought area could expand from North Dakota to the northern Plains BY ROBERT ARNASON WINNIPEG BUREAU

As temperatures soar into the mid 30s C in the already dry U.S. northern Plains this week, spring wheat futures boiled over with the strongest rally in about six years. The last major jump in spring wheat futures was in the second half of 2010 and early 2011, when prices rose from $5 per bu. to more than $9 per bu. Drought in the northern Plains may be driving this rally, but the USDA’s June 30 acreage report was also bullish. The USDA estimated all U.S. wheat at 45.7 million acres, down nine percent from 2016 and the lowest acreage since records began in 1919. Spring wheat was estimated at 10.9 million acres, six percent lower than 2016 and below the range of the trade’s estimates . Kostal said the USDA report “fine

tuned” an existing perception in the market: that a shortage of quality wheat is possible. “The beginning inventory of higher quality, higher protein spring wheat was negligible,” he said. “Now you’re running into adversity in the U.S…. You’re starting to get into some crop condition numbers that would correlate to some pretty poor (production) numbers.” As an example of the difficult growing conditions in the region, a June 25 crop progress report for Montana rated nine percent of the crop as very poor, 27 percent poor and 42 percent fair. The national condition rating for spring wheat was the worst since the drought of 1988. Spring wheat and other crops are struggling because April, May and June were unusually dry in much of the northern Plains.

U.S. National Weather Service data for western North Dakota shows that: • Precipitation in Minot was 125 millimetres below normal from March 1 to June 25. • Precipitation in Dickinson, N.D., in that period was 110 mm below normal. Chauncy Schultz, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Bismarck, N.D., said a significant part of the region is lacking moisture. “The latest drought monitor (report), we did see an expansion of what we consider D3, or extreme drought,” he said, noting that growing conditions are worsening in southwestern North Dakota The U.S. Drought Monitor rates droughts from D0 to D4, with D4 being an “exceptional drought.” The geographic area with extreme drought could expand further in July because scorching

SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Poor prices discourage Indian pulse seeding If India’s pulse crop is smaller it could create export opportunities for Canadian growers BY ROBIN BOOKER SASKATOON NEWSROOM

REGINA — A market opportunity may be brewing for Canadian pulse producers as Indian pulse acreage might contract considerably because of poor returns in that country. “Right now, with the prices that are available to growers in India, it’s not attractive to grow pulses. We’re seeing them go into things like cotton and corn,” Chad Molesky of Viterra told a meeting at Canada’s Farm Progress Show in Regina last month. If Indian prices stay low, it would also lead to reduced pulse seeding in the winter crop that is sown in the fall. He said Indian lentil area could be down 25 to 50 percent. It’s unlikely the summer pulse crop will be as large as last year’s record 9.12 million tonnes, and even the Indian agriculture ministry’s production target of 8.75 million tonnes may not be achieved. Pulse planting in India got of to a slow start in June but in the last week caught up. As of June 30, 4.65 million acres of summer pulses had been sown, up from 3.22 million last year at the same point and the historical average of 2.53 million. The long-term average total

Red lentils might not benefit from lower India plantings because world stocks are ample. | FILE PHOTO summer pulse acreage is 26.09 million. Indian farmers continue planting for another few weeks. The final planted acreage report will be available by the end of July. India already imports more Canadian pulses than any other country, but it might have to import more if there is a small domestic crop. Indian importers have forward bought less supply compared to this time last year, which may provide an upside to the market if

Indian production falls. However, Molesky said he doesn’t see a significant rally in red lentils soon. Red lentil ending stocks in Canada are low because India aggressively imported supply as deadlines for a fumigation agreement between Canada and India approached. However, India, Pakistan, and Turkey still sit on large stockpiles of lentils. “There is not really a lot of incentive for these guys to pay up and get

a new position on new crop,” Molesky said. Last week, India extended its waiver on pulse fumigation until Dec. 31, providing better certainty for the market, which had been tentative while the issue was still unresolved. Global red lentil supply was bolstered by Australia’s large harvest. Canadian farmers have reduced lentil seeded area but if yields return to average, this country would have about the same production as last year.

“It’s not a tight S and D (supply and demand), so we would expect values to trend a little bit lower, into the low 20 cent range,” Molesky said. “But long term I think you will see things grind back towards a mid 20s bid.” Green lentil price prospects are better because of dry weather in the United States and the expectation that Indian pigeon pea acres will drop and reduce their over supply. “So we expect prices to remain relatively steady and increase more toward the end of this year,” he said. “I don’t believe that we are going to see 50 and 60 cent green lentil prices for lairds this next year, but 35 to 40 is a reasonably good range there.” Green peas will likely trend sideways even though there was a 15 to 20 percent drop in Canadian acreage this year. A large carryover remains, almost 50 percent of a regular crop, so acreage didn’t drop enough to create a bullish market. “I would expect a bid of $8 (per bushel for green peas) would be on the low side, and when the market needs to come in and replenish the cupboards, as they say, $9 and $9.50 a bu. bid is realistic,” Molesky said. robin.booker@producer.com

PULSE REGULATION

India extends fumigation deadline — with caveat The country hiked the fumigation cost by five times BY TERRY FRIES COMMODITY NEWS SERVICE CANADA

India has extended the June 30 deadline on a requirement that all pulse shipments to that country be fumigated with methyl bromide, but it wasn’t quite the good news the Canadian pulse industry had hoped to hear. “India has basically extended the ability for exporters around the world to ship to India without fumigation prior to arrival in India, and in exchange for that privilege, they are charging five times their normal fee (for fumigation at an Indian port),” said Gordon Bacon, chief executive officer of Pulse Canada. “So it’s sort of like we’ve swapped out one requirement for another.” The permission for exporters to ship without fumigation before arrival at India is extended to Dec. 31. Bacon said India currently charges $72 per 20-foot container. The additional fee of five times the current rate would equal $360. The number varies from year to year, but Canada typically ships about 20,000 containers of pulses to India annually, so the added fees would cost Canadian pulse shippers about $7.2 million overall. However, Bacon said it’s not clear if Canadian exporters will be charged the added fee based on

India’s recent action at the World Trade Organization to remove Canada from its list of countries required to fumigate with methyl bromide. He said if Canada is not on the list, how can it be assessed the penalty? “Does it mean we don’t have to pay the fee? That’s what we don’t have an answer to,” he said. However, he said Canadian exporters who ship to India after June 30 need to be aware that they may be assessed the additional charge. Pulse Canada, government officials and others in the pulse industry will continue to ask for clarification from India and push for a longer-term solution, he said. “Everybody agrees we can’t be having to review everything, every six months or three months or every year, and this has been going on since 2003,” said Bacon. India requires methyl bromide fumigation to help protect its onion and garlic crops from nematode pests. Canada cannot fumigate with methyl bromide because it is too cold. Without the delay in the fumigation requirement, Canada would have to ship peas and lentils to a third country for fumigation before they could be taken to India. India buys one-third of Canadian peas and lentils worth about $1.1 billion last year, according to reports.

BARLEY PRODUCTION

HEAT WAVE

Feed barley down, malt demand up

Dry weather takes toll on EU rapeseed forecast

Livestock producers are finding feed alternatives, while exports of malt barley are increasing BY ROBIN BOOKER SASKATOON NEWSROOM

REGINA — Canadian barley production has dropped 35 percent over the past 10 years as livestock operators switched to feed wheat, distillers dried grain and corn. Canada’s barley exports have suffered from robust international competition. For instance, Japan used to import 300,000 tonnes of Canadian feed barley a year, but now is willing to buy from other producing areas such as the Black Sea region and the European Union, said Kenric Exner of Viterra at Canada’s Farm Progress Show in Regina. However, increasing global demand for malt barley is reason for optimism for Canadian barley producers. People in urbanizing developing countries have increasing disposable income to buy higher quality food and beverages, including beer. This trend has already increased Chinese demand for Canadian malting barley, Exner said. “Canadian origin malting barley is a high quality malt, so they are obviously trying to produce a higher quality Chinese beer,” he said. “I don’t know where we go from here, where it stops, but it’s a great news story for the Canadian farmer — that we are exporting more malt to China, and they are willing to take it.” Vietnam and India are following this same trend and may become significant destinations for Canadian malt barley. Malt barley varieties are expected to account for 60 percent of barley acres in Canada this year. Five years ago barley acres were split evenly between malt and feed varieties, Exner said.

So it’s not really a staple,” Exner said. He said the range on malt barley this summer and going into the fall will be $4.75 to $5.50 per bushel, depending on variety and time frame. “On feed barley, I think we will be between $2.75 and $3.50 a bu., depending on production and weather, but those tend to be typical ranges,” Exner said. robin.booker@producer.com

PA R I S, F ra n c e ( R e u t e r s ) — Consultancy Strategie Grains reduced its monthly outlook for this year’s rapeseed crop in the European Union by 200,000 tonnes after a recent hot spell hit some large producing countries in the bloc. In a report released July 3, Strategie Grains projected the EU 2017 rapeseed crop at 21.12 million tonnes, still 4.2 percent above last year, when the crop was damaged by adverse weather. “Losses this month mostly stem from France and Central Europe, although prospects are good in the southeast of the EU, where the harvest is about to begin. The field results in the weeks ahead will hence have to be watched closely,” it said. Strategie Grains lowered its forecast for this year’s sunseed harvest in the EU to 8.36 million tonnes, down nearly 200,000 tonnes from its May estimate and now just one percent above last year. Meanwhile the European Commission trimmed its forecast of the soft wheat crop in the bloc to 138.86 million tonnes, down 2.42 million. That is still larger than last year’s weather-damaged harvest of 134.36 million tonnes, but it is smaller than other recent forecasts that were closer to 140 million tonnes.

CRAFT BEER

Craft beer sector gives barley sector a wake-up call Barley varieties have catered to demands of big brewers, but demands by craft beer makers may see breeders accommodate BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Craft brewers make up less than 20 percent of beer production in the United States, but they consume almost 50 percent of the malt used by the beer industry. That makes them important to the barley industry and to barley growers, Brewers Association supply chain specialist Chris Swersey said during the Canadian Barley Symposium June 26. “Last year was a real eye-opener for us,” said Swersey during a panel discussion about barley’s opportunities and challenges. Recent decades have seen mainstream, bulk brewers steadily break barley’s hold on the beer-making commodity market. Most bulk brewers use a number of cheaper “adjuncts” to provide much of their beer bases, adding only a minority portion of actual

GETTY PHOTO

industry discussions, are now the darlings, the true believers in a crop that has seen its popularity with farmers decrease in recent years as more lucrative crop options have become available. Craft brewers aren’t just seen as a nice and incrementally valuable part of the barley demand base, but as vital to barley’s survival as a

mainstream crop choice on the Prairies. Mainstream brewers have worked hard to reduce their reliance on barley, but craft brewers have bonded themselves tightly to the traditional beer-making crop. “Anywhere you see ‘craft,’ just put ‘all-malt,’ ” said Swersey. That evolution has brought great hopes for the barley industry, which had seen steady erosion of barley demand from the already-stagnant mainstream beer industry. Because the big brewers were relying increasingly on adjuncts, the characteristics of the malt they demanded changed to support the production of these hybrid beers. That prompted maltsters to begin demanding different characteristics in the barley varieties they malted, which pushed barley breeders to develop varieties that would produce that sort of malt.

That’s what farmers have ended up growing. However, the new demand from craft brewers is now providing a pushback against that trend, creating demand for barley varieties with more traditional characteristics that work best in 100 percent barley bases. A number of speakers at the conference discussed the evolution of barley variety characteristics as researchers and developers try to maintain the agronomic gains of recent years while also trying to improve the quality of malt for malt-only brewers. ed.white@producer.com

What happened to those burdensome wheat stocks? MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

ith spring wheat prices soaring, farmers might be thinking that all that talk of huge world wheat stocks was a lie. Well, those stocks are still there, but the rapid development of a drought on the northern U.S. Plains this year has focused traders’ minds on a portion of the wheat market — the high protein part. Two consecutive below-normal protein U.S. hard red winter wheat crops have increased demand for high protein at the same time that a flash drought is burning up the U.S. spring wheat crop. The hot dry weather in the forecast could also start to stress Canada’s spring wheat crop. The panic about supply seems to have drowned out arguments we’ve heard in the last couple of years about millers being more blasé about quality and that they can adjust their practices to get adequate flour characteristics without paying high prices for protein. The burning sun in the Dakotas has also blinded the market to those much-talked-about stocks. Just last month, the U.S. Department of Agriculture increased its

Despite a global stocks-to-use ratio of 35.5 percent, there is growing panic among millers about a shortage of quality, high protein wheat. | FILE PHOTO forecast for global year-end stocks for 2017-18 to 261.2 million tonnes, up 2.9 million from the previous month and up 4.8 million from the end of 2016-17. That produces a burdensome stocks-to-use ratio of 35.5 percent. However, the global number hides important details. Almost half of the stocks are tied up in China and are not be a factor in global trade. However, the market knew that and ignored it as it kept wheat prices in the doldrums through most of 2016-17. Also, the global number does not provide a break down on quality, so we are in the dark as to how much high protein

wheat is actually available. For example, Agriculture Canada forecasts year end 2016-17 Canadian wheat stocks at 4.3 million tonnes, up from 4.08 million the previous year, but there is no official word on the grade breakdown or how much of that is feed. Likely a lot of it is very poor quality. The USDA does some breakdown of its domestic wheat stocks. While overall wheat stocks at the end of the current 2016-17 crop year are expected to climb 6.74 million tonnes to 62.86 million, the hard red spring wheat component of that is expected to fall about 1.5 million tonnes to 5.85 million. With 2017 U.S. hard red spring

wheat production expected to crater because of the drought, stocks of that class by the end of 2017-18 will likely be scraping the bottom of the barrel. The result is that the premium of the Minneapolis hard red spring wheat September contract over the Kansas hard red winter wheat contract has soared to US$2.56, the second highest on record, topped only by February-March 2008, during another panic about protein supply and at the peak of the commodity boom. Compounding the worries about wheat supply this year is the danger that the northern plains drought will creep north into the

Canadian Prairies. There is also drought in Western Australia’s winter wheat crop. Australia’s weather service said this week that almost all of the crop area in the state of Western Australia for the most recent four months is in severe moisture deficiency, and big blocks within that area are the driest on record. Where will spring wheat prices wind up? It is impossible to know, but the Minneapolis spring wheat contract in 2008 topped out at about US$24 a bushel.

OPINION CRAIG’S VIEW

CARBON REDUCTION

Ag carbon reduction policies must jibe with food demands

iven the diversity of carbon regimes in place — or about to be launched across the nation — there is one thing in the agricultural industry that is certain: farmers don’t like it. In fact, many farmers are downright angry. This was evident long before The Western Producer’s three-week series on various carbon reduction efforts across the planet, which wraps up in this edition. Yet given the information that’s coming together, it looks like the costs to farmers won’t be inordinate; farmers should be able to withstand them without endangering the financial success of their operations. In fact, there may even be a grumbling acceptance in the agriculture industry of the various carbon taxes across the provinces, with one condition: this had better work to reduce greenhouse gases and address climate change. If not, it simply becomes another tax on farmers, and that is not acceptable. What has farmers so miffed, in part, is that many current practices have significantly reduced the amount of carbon emitted, and so far, these practices aren’t recognized in any of the carbon regimes. Whether it be a tax on carbon, or cap and trade, or a mix, there is not a heck of a lot that can be done to reduce emissions other than incremental improvements. Farmers have already invested a lot of time and money in practices that reduce carbon output. And unlike the makers of those mythical widgets, who can increase the price and adjust the supply based on demand, farmers cannot pass the tax costs along to anyone. They are the end of the line, absorbing all extra costs because they are largely costand price-takers, not setters. Farmers’ use of inputs and fuels are not elastic; it is necessary. In fact, if farmers try to meet the federal economic advisory panel’s goal of increasing agricultural and

agribusiness exports to eight percent of global exports by 2027 (up from 5.7 percent), yields will have to increase, and more carbon-producing inputs (chiefly fertilizer) and fuel will be required. Thus far, none of the carbon efforts proposed across the country address this problem. Nor do we know whether farmers receive credit for carbon sequestration efforts already in place or whether their previous investments in expensive equipment with more efficient engines and premium fertilizers (which emit less carbon) will be recognized. And what will the average farmer pay for carbon? In British Columbia, where the carbon tax is $30 per tonne, the average farmer is paying about $1,000 per year. But federal government numbers suggest that at $50 per tonne in 2022, the average farmer in Western Canada will pay $3,700 per year. Still, carbon regimes are in place in B.C. and Alberta and agriculture in both those provinces has not been significantly affected. (No doubt some farmers will disagree.) Saskatchewan plans to fight a carbon tax in court, but by 2018, if the province doesn’t have a plan in place, Alberta’s regime will be imposed by the federal government. Manitoba’s plan is still a work in progress. Quebec and Ontario went the cap-andtrade route. With such diversity, cost projections are of limited value and uncertainty reigns. The governments that have yet to impose a carbon tax can help address this by recognizing that agriculture is not an industry where practices can change based on taxation. If food security is a prime objective, this must be addressed through carbon policies that reflect reality rather than wishful thinking.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

History shows Canadians have made their mark in kitchens CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

n 1884, Montrealer Marcellus Gilmore Edson asked the U.S. government to issue a patent for a peanut paste he developed by milling peanuts. Originally meant to be used in candy, that peanut paste is believed to be the launch point of what we consider today as peanut butter — that creamy, delicious staple the Peanut Council of Canada says is consumed in 58 percent of Canadian households on a weekly basis. The nutty condiment even earned a nod from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Canada Day — a shout out met with a roar from the crowd.

Peanut butter isn’t the only Canadian culinary invention. Most Canadians are familiar with iconic dishes such as maple syrup, Canada Dry Ginger Ale, poutine, Nanaimo bars, instant mashed potatoes, butter tarts (Barrie, Ont., 1900) and Bloody Caesars (originally invented in 1969 by a hotel manager in Calgary). Canada’s contributions to the food world go beyond these Canadian delicacies. For instance, did you know Canada has a sushi connection? The popular California roll — an inside-out sushi roll made with cucumber, crab (or imitation crab) and avocado — was invented by Japanese Chef Hidekazu Tojo when he moved to Vancouver in 1971. At the time, Canadian consumption of raw fish and seaweed was minimal, to Tojo’s disappointment. The roll was so popular with tourists from Los Angeles that he called it the California roll. It is now a

standard menu item at sushi restaurants around the world, including in Japan. (In 2014, Vancouver was home to more than 600 sushi restaurants and was considered by many to be the sushi capital of North America.) The California roll isn’t the only Asian-inspired dish to be invented in Canada. In the 1970s, Chef George Wong needed a way to boost business at the Silver Inn in Calgary. He wanted to encourage his western patrons to try dishes other than steak, burgers and grilled cheese. So, he invented a delicious, sticky mixture of crispy beef and stir-fried veggies doused in a chili sauce. Ginger beef, named for the fact customers mistakenly believed ginger was a key ingredient in the sauce, was a hit and remains a culinary must-have in Western Canada. Chinese buffets date back to when Canada’s main rail lines were being built. The story goes it was an

easy way to feed the hundreds of men working at once. Meanwhile, family run Chinese restaurants, with their Canadian-Chinese cuisine, remain an integral piece of many rural communities — first created to give locals a place to meet for meal or a coffee. Canadian culinary contributions go beyond the grill, too. It was a Canadian who first invented the egg carton —an idea that newspaper publisher Joseph Coyle apparently devised after overhearing a dispute about broken eggs between an hotelier and a deliveryman. Eggs at the time were delivered in baskets. The cartons were patented in 1918 and by 1919, Coyle had sold his newspaper so that he could work in the egg-carton business full time. However, as is so often the case, despite being credited with solving a centuries-old problem, Coyle never became a wealthy man. It was an Ontario farmer named

David Fife who first figured out Red Fife wheat could survive, with some success, in Canada’s harsh growing conditions. It was a discovery that would eventually lead to a significant research project by William Saunders in conjunction with the Central Experimental Farm. Saunders wanted to cross Red Fife with other varieties in order to develop a wheat variety that could be harvested earlier. His research led to the development of Marquis wheat. And, it was Canadian researchers who invented canola, which recently inspired a new exhibit at the Agriculture and Food Museum in Ottawa. Canada’s ingenuity in the kitchen and beyond is a history of ingredients that will inspire culinary greatness for centuries to come. Happy 150th Canada.

Agriculture a solution to reducing carbon

WP top 10 online stories

BY TODD LEWIS

arbon and climate change policy have been hot topics since the federal government announced its policy on carbon taxation last October. This is especially true in Saskatchewan with the provincial government’s refusal to participate in the national carbon pricing plan. Agricultural producers have a lot at stake in this discussion, both from carbon pricing policies and from the impacts of climate change on our business. The demand for increased food production is an essential consideration. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that world food production must increase by 70 percent by 2050 to support a growing world population. Western Canada is a major export supplier of grains, oilseeds, pulse crops, and meat products, particularly to regions that face production shortages due to climate change The message from our industry must be heard. Carbon taxes do not work for agriculture. Producers cannot pass along added costs. There is no effective price signal in current carbon policy that will achieve the intended results. Agricultural producers do not set prices for their products, operate on thin profit margins and endure high levels of risk from fluctuating market prices and unpredictable growing conditions. E xe m p t i n g f a r m f u e l i s n o t enough to shelter agriculture from the negative impacts; when you add in the impact of all inputs, costs

Government policies must help the agricultural sector continue to play a role in addressing carbon reduction. | FILE PHOTO could go up between $15-$20 an acre at $50 per tonne. Because energy and input costs are such a large factor in farm profitability and can’t be passed along the value chain, producers have a lot of incentive to reduce operating costs by operating as efficiently as possible. When more efficient technologies, crops and management practices are available, they are rapidly adopted. More crops and livestock are now being produced than ever before, with a lower energy footprint. Another consideration is that agriculture is already a key sector in addressing carbon emissions

through management of our landscape. At the signing of the 2015 Paris climate agreement, it was recognized that if we increase the sequestration of carbon in agricultural soils by four parts per thousand, the world’s farmers can halt the increase in CO2 in our atmosphere. Nobody knows more about how to sequester carbon through agriculture than prairie farmers and ranchers. As stewards of 40 percent of Canada’s cultivated land and 35 percent of Canada’s pasture land, Saskatchewan producers are key players in Canada’s land use and carbon cycle management.

Saskatchewan crop producers currently sequester an additional 8.5 million tonnes of carbon through improved management practices every year, and prairie pastures sequester more than two billion tonnes. As the largest group of private sector land managers, farmers and ranchers also provide sequestration through forages, trees and wetlands. So, our message to government decision makers is clear: Don’t impose taxes that make it harder for us to do our work. Policy that recognizes agriculture’s role in addressing the carbon problem is essential. Policy questions that require urgent attention include the following: • How to design carbon offset policies that provide real financial benefit to producers. • How to provide and recognize the existing carbon sequestration benefits provided by landscape features like pastures, trees, and wetlands and enhance these features through positive incentives. • How to dramatically increase research on plant genetics, cropping rotations and management practices to support even greater sequestration in agriculture. The Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan plans to host an agricultural carbon summit in Saskatoon on July 13 and 14 to launch discussions on these important issues. Todd Lewis is president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan.

WEATHER, WEEDS, BUGS…

Modern farmers have many more issues to fret over HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

t’s worry time. The crop is developing quickly, and depending on your location, it may need rain or it may still be suffering from excess moisture, but either way there are numerous yield robbing threats that require decisions. Fusarium was a huge issue last year for wheat and especially for durum. Although fungicides are only somewhat effective against fusarium and although the application window is tight, more growers than ever penciled in a fungicide application this year. As this is being written, the weather has turned hot and dry in most locations, and fusarium maps are showing a low risk. The decision to

spray is no longer automatic. On the other hand, spring wheat prices have been on an amazing upward trajectory, so every bushel and every grade is suddenly more valuable than anticipated. What about spraying for sclerotinia in canola? What about a fungicide application for anthracnose and ascochyta in lentils? It’s a judgment call based on local conditions, disease history and how effective you believe fungicides can be. Insect pests can be even more unpredictable. Cabbage seedpod weevils are a threat to canola and to brown and oriental mustard over an ever-expanding region of southern and central Alberta and Saskatchewan. As the crop goes into flower, you should be doing sweep net counts in a number of field locations. If you find lots of weevils, the decision to make an insecticide application is easy. If the counts are variable with some below the economic threshold and some above, it’s a quandary on how to proceed. Is the count going to increase or

decrease? The only way to know is to keep checking. And if your neighbours are spraying or not spraying, that can have an impact on your decision. A host of other insect pests can arise unexpectedly, including diamond back moth larvae and bertha armyworms. Many producers plan and budget for fertilizer topdressing. With rainfall running far below normal in many prairie regions and with high temperatures cutting into yield potential, do you still go ahead? Even in the dry regions, subsoil moisture was excellent, so yield potential may still be pretty good. Some regions have had ample rainfall, and crop potential is great. Do you buy additional insurance to protect against the big white Combine? Summers are short. Your kids or grandkids are out of school. Time at the lake or the pool is in order. Or maybe you need to travel to attend a wedding or other family function. Unless someone else on the farm has your back, it’s tough to be away

for very long. A huge investment in time and effort is bearing fruit right in front of your eyes. It advances a little bit every day. In a bygone era, the typical way of operating was to seed the crop, make a single herbicide application and then just leave it alone until harvest time. After the herbicide was applied, the pull-type field sprayer was parked for another year. Grasshoppers were the main insect and might warrant spraying, but fungicides were largely undiscovered. Field work consisted of multiple tillage operations to control weeds on summerfallow. Cropped land rarely saw another field operation under harvest. Now there are so many things to worry about that producers risk separation anxiety if they’re away from their crops too long. If the sprayer hasn’t been running in a while, it feels like you’re failing as a progressive farmer. Kevin Hursh is an agricultural journalist, consultant and farmer.

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

BRIAN MACLEOD EDITOR

t’s time for our semi-annual look at what our online viewers are reading. The results are always interesting and instructive for us at The Western Producer. Our 10th most read story this year is “Survey reveals ‘amazing’ soil loss in Great Plains region.” Published in January, this story pointed out that large amounts of nitrogen and phosphate had blown or washed away over the last 75 to 125 years. Ninth is “Genesis plans huge fertilizer supercentre west of Regina,” a story also from January, about plans by Saskatchewan-based Genesis Grain to build a $24-million fertilizer storage, blending and distribution centre at Belle Plaine, Sask. In eighth place is “It might be a good time to stock up on glyphosate,” a story in February on increasing prices due to higher costs for raw materials in China. Seventh is “Excessive glyphosate levels found in 1.3 percent of food samples: CFIA study,” published in April. The study found that four percent of grain products had glyphosate levels exceeding maximum residue limits, though the food system was deemed by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to be safe. “Harmony Beef to reopen,” from February, holds sixth spot. It is the country’s newest federally inspected meat plant, which is located northeast of Calgary. In fifth place is “Glyphosate presence in honey raises concerns,” which outlined a lawsuit launched by the U.S. Organic Consumers Association and Beyond Pesticide. The group argued that use of the words “pure” and “natural” by Sue Bee Honey of Sioux City, Iowa, was misleading. Fourth is “Grain bag slashing angers farmer,” explaining that there had been seven such incidents around Rouleau, Sask., in January. Our third highest-read story this year is “Farmers overcharged nearly $100 million in CGC user fees.” The commission said it was reviewing its user fees. “Drought predicted for Alberta this summer” is our second-highest read story. Published in May, it quoted AccuWeather’s outlook on central and northern Alberta, in which hot, dry conditions were expected. So far, farmers have been spared. And our top-read online story so far this year is “Sask. budget: PST, land, education farm fuel taxes increased,” explaining the effects of the Saskatchewan austerity budget on farmers. brian.macleod@producer.com

SASKATCHEWAN FINANCES To the Editor Knowing that Premier Brad Wall’s earlier political mentor was Grant Devine should have been a red flag from the beginning. It was premiers Roy Romanow and Lorne Calvert who pulled this province from the brink. Wall caught and rode a wave while patting himself on the back. A re s p o n s i b l e g ov e r n m e nt would have dealt with a deficit when the economy was high. Wall’s government has squandered millions on white elephants long swept under the rug. One example being those not-sosmart meters that cost us $45 mil-

lion, whose sole purpose was to create unemployment. Those Texan “consultants” cost us $40 million. Now there is their slashburn-and-tax rampage that included profitable crowns. To see the Saskatchewan (Transportation Company) ended has much of the province livid. Only a dictator would sell the people’s crowns without their consent. And if you do the math you will find that the cost of that gold road around Regina would keep the STC running for another 105 years. Local media have made it clear that the STC was costing little more than $11 million in subsidies for operation, carrying 261,531 passengers in 2014, and freight to and from 253 communities, making

Wheat streak mosaic found in Alberta Mites multiply quickly in hot, dry weather LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Wheat streak mosaic virus has shown up in southern Alberta. The counties of Lethbridge, Vulcan and Willow Creek have each confirmed the virus in crops and scouting is recommended in all regions south of Red Deer. As the name implies, wheat streak mosaic virus shows up as yellow streaks on the leaves of cereal crops. The virus, spread by leaf curl mites, destroys the green chlorophyll necessary for plants to convert sunlight to sugars. The mites do not have wings so they rely on wind to travel to new feeding grounds. They can multiply quickly in hot, dry weather such as that recently experienced in southern Alberta and which was in the forecast for the week of July 3. It has the potential to severely reduce yield. There are no chemical controls. Wheat streak mosaic virus symptoms can look similar to stripe rust, and as it happens, Alberta Agriculture also reports that stripe rust has been reported in at least seven counties. They include Cardston, Forty Mile, Lacombe, Lethbridge, Newell, Red Deer and Warner.

NEW PRODUCT

Septic tank alert designed to prevent unpleasant surprise The TankFull sensor and monitoring system wins award at Canada’s Farm Progress Show BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Developers of a new ultrasonic sensor say it ends the uncertainty around an important household question: is the septic tank full? TankFull, a division of Duck Mountain Environmental based in Kamsack, Sask., received a gold standard award at Canada’s Farm Progress Show for its promise of 24/7 monitoring through the sensor and a cellular network or the internet. Robert Ritchie, president of DME, said it took two years to take the product to a commercial level late last year. About 100 customers have signed up. “If you are in cottage country or in the farming community, or anywhere in the rural area, we all know what septic tanks are,” Ritchie said. “We typically don’t like checking them and we don’t like when they overfill and we miss the fact.” The technology includes the ultrasonic sensor connected to a network that transmits data in real time to the customer’s smartphone or tablet. The company also receives the transmission continuously. “When a tank gets to 80 percent full, or whatever that value is, it will send an alert to the customer, it will send an alert to our facility and then we’re able to dispatch a vehicle to come and pump that tank and of course alert the customer as well,” Ritchie said. The customer decides the percentage at which the alert should be made. Ritchie said there are about 65,000 septic tanks in Saskatchewan and 2.3 million in Canada. He said people tend to forget about their tanks until they flood their basements, yards or neighbours’ yards. “This kind of technology was ready for the market because nobody likes checking it and it gives you peace of mind,” he said. The device is easy to install. Customers can do it themselves but Ritchie said DME prefers to do it to make sure it’s done correctly. It takes about 40 minutes and can be done on existing installations. The device sits on top of the tank, so some room to manoeuvre is required. The entire system costs about $700, including installation, plus the monthly monitoring fee, which Ritchie said varies by area. He also said the company will make connections with the septic companies it uses in customers’ areas. Most of the current clients are in the Kamsack-Madge Lake-Yorkton-Canora area. Ritchie said having a venue at the farm show exposed the new product to many potential customers. Mitch Olson, the TankFull representative, said the system can also be used to measure fuel and

water tanks. However, the ability to better monitor septic tanks is a new market. He said some installations have been done using the rural internet provider Xplornet. karen.briere@producer.com

CONTAMINATION CONCERNS

Ag groups demand end to GM alfalfa approval Alfalfa growers fear loss of international markets BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

LA GLACE, Alta. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Fourteen Canadian agriculture organizations want the federal government to cancel registration of genetically modified alfalfa and test all imports of U.S.-grown alfalfa seed. They also want the locations of all GM alfalfa fields made public â&#x20AC;&#x153;so farmers can protect their fields and crops until all GM alfalfa varieties are taken off the market.â&#x20AC;? The 14 groups, most of them organic grower associations but also the National Farmers Union and Quebecâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest farm group, say GM alfalfa will spread to all varieties in Canada, eliminating organic certification and harming international markets for seed and organic feed and ingredients. Peter Eggers, an organic farmer and member of the NFU, said GM traits in alfalfa, which include glyphosate tolerance and low lignin, are not needed by the industry, and co-existence protocols developed by the Canadian Seed Trade Association will not be effective. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The co-existence plan they have in Eastern Canada requires them to cut it (before bloom) so it does not get out and pollute other sources of alfalfa, but yet when you have this low lignin, one of the supposed advantages is that you can cut it later, so the danger that it actually starts to flower and produce seed is greater,â&#x20AC;? said Eggers.

The seed trade industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s co-existance plan requires GM alfalfa to be cut before bloom to prevent contamination, which organic growers say is contrary to the varietyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s low-lignin trait that promotes harvesting at the 50 percent flowering stage. | GETTY PHOTO Forage Genetics International, which holds the rights to GM alfalfa, has marketed the product in Eastern Canada but said in a January statement that it had no plans to sell the seed for hay and forage in the West. â&#x20AC;&#x153;FGI will not license any HarvXtra Alfalfa with Roundup Ready technology to be grown within Western Canada, nor will FGI allow any authorized dealer to sell seed for planting in Western Canada,â&#x20AC;? it said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Through dialogue and consultation with farmers, seed producers, seed marketers and other interested stakeholders, FGI has and will continue to clearly communicate that we will not make any decision to bring GE alfalfa traits (for hay

Efforts are underway to declare Albertaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Peace region a GM-alfalfa free zone, and several rural municipalities in that region have stated support for the concept. Danny Limoges, board member for the Peace Region Forage Seed Association, said the effort is not a fight against GM technology. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not opposed to GM technology overall,â&#x20AC;? he said in the NFU news release, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but we are very concerned about the market impacts that GM alfalfa would have on alfalfa seed growers and the whole forage seed business, as it only takes one GMO alfalfa seed for any forage seed shipment to be rejected by an overseas buyer.â&#x20AC;? Eggers and Lundgard said they are aware of the GM-free Peace initiative but fear GM alfalfa will spread regardless of those efforts because of its presence in the U.S. and the porosity of the international border. On June 21, FGI posted on its website benefits that forage growers can derive from Roundup Ready alfalfa. It said the varieties improve weed control and allow growers to easily spray out cover crops once a new alfalfa stand is established. It also allows for better stand establishment by controlling weed competition and allows for fall spraying to control winter annuals, the company said. barb.glen@producer.com

It’s never too early to plan for 2018 Rotation isn’t only about alternating crops and fields — it should also include varieties and herbicide-tolerance systems

WITH JADE DELAURIER & SCOTT ANDERSON

BY ANNEMARIE PEDERSEN After challenging conditions for last year’s harvest and this spring’s seeding, most growers are focusing on this year’s crop rather than looking ahead to next spring. But what they’re seeing in the field this year can provide valuable information for planning next year’s crop. “Once they have planted and sprayed and confirmed the weed problems in their field, their current crop mix and herbicide-tolerance system, then they have the information they need to start thinking about options for next year,” says Scott Anderson, manager of agronomic services for Crop Production Services (CPS) in northwest Saskatchewan. Keith Gabert, a Canola Council of Canada agronomy specialist in central Alberta, says careful scouting and recordkeeping can really help variety selection for next year. “A grower should be able to say things like ‘The last time this field was in canola I didn’t see any blackleg and had cut 10 stems in three locations in that field.’ Or ‘A couple drowned-out sick-looking spots turned out not to be clubroot — but I found a lot of plants with sclerotinia there.’” Gabert’s advice is that one size does not fit all. “All of the value-added traits are important, but knowing the disease challenges present on your farm will help you select varieties that have traits that will reduce risk, and increase yield in your fields by focusing on traits that bring value to your operation.” LOOK AROUND THE NEIGHBOURHOOD Field trials help companies showcase their varieties and demonstrate how they will perform in the local area or across the Prairies. “The best way to decide (on variety) is by participating in a few summer plot tours, knowing what your neighbours are also evaluating for varieties and trying more than one variety on your farm each year,” says Gabert. He adds that looking at data from trials in the local area will help evaluate the varieties that succeed year after year in the region. Anderson agrees. “I would like to see more people taking advantage of plot tours in their local area — the best way to learn about a variety is to see it and stand with it in the field. The nice thing is that they are available across the Prairies and give an accurate look at how a certain variety will do in that area. People should be pulling over and walking out in the field.” He adds that these trials are important for both growers and staff to see what is available and how it is performing. “Collecting all the data possible, including information at field trials, are the best tools growers can have to make strong decisions for the coming year,” says Anderson. Tours of field trials are offered by many seed and input companies across the Prairies. One of the largest will be Ag In Motion (AIM) in Saskatoon in July. “These are producer-managed trials. The information comes straight from our farmers, in their fields,” says Jade Delaurier, manager of agronomic services for CPS in east Saskatchewan. “CPS also includes experimental

varieties in field scale trials so they are being tested in real-life application.” IT’S NOT ONLY YIELD Knowing the issues growers face in their own fields will shorten their list and allow them to pinpoint the genetics they are looking for. Traits to identify in field trials include height, standability, maturity, disease resistance, yield and harvest management. Storyboards will be available at many trials and will include information such as disease or pest problems in the field, and how and when they have been treated. “The trials are taken very seriously,” says Delaurier, adding that there are protocols in place such as supplying booties to prevent cross-contamination between fields, and information should also be available online. Timing of the plot visits can also be important. “I want growers to look at the overall agronomics of the variety beyond yield,” says Anderson. “It is great to get out and look at the trials in the fall so it is possible to see any issues with lodging, podding depth, disease resistance, or maturity ratings.” Gabert says that growers should also look for a comparison of two varieties where a single field is split and they can see side-by-side differences in growth pattern and yield on their farm. IMPORTANT TRAITS FOR THIS YEAR… AND NEXT Gabert says important new traits will be available for next year, including voluntary blackleg gene identification on the seed bag, multi-gene blackleg varieties, improved

clubroot resistance and sclerotinia tolerance incorporated into varieties suitable to a wider geography. “Scouting in the previous season to determine the need for those traits on your farm is even more important than what the market offers you each fall for variety selection,” he says. While it can be time-consuming to evaluate all the data on each variety, looking at local trial results can provide a good indication of variety performance. Anderson says CPS is working on new genetics around disease resistance, in particular for clubroot. “For clubroot prevention in the field it comes down to the genetics and having a resistant variety. There really are no control measures once the crop is in the ground.” He says growers will also start to see improvement in blackleg resistance. “As blackleg races shift in the field we need to continually refresh our genetics and bring in new resistant varieties.” ROTATING VARIETIES AND SYSTEMS This year’s wet spring in many areas and continued tight rotations will have consequences in 2018. “Every year is different — we had a reminder of this with a wet harvest season in 2016,” says Gabert. “This combined with late seeding means early-maturing varieties are now in demand. Weather from the previous season dictates some of the pest concerns, especially on a regional basis.” He says that in selecting varieties, it’s crucial to know which pests were present in the field when the last canola crop was grown. Delaurier says a three-year rotation is recommended

and not just rotating varieties. “If there are weed resistance issues, insect pressure etc. in the field now, growers should be looking at rotating selections of fields, varieties and treatments.” Gabert agrees. “Choosing more than one herbicide system in your canola has many positive attributes; the potential to manage difficult weed problems differently with your choice of system. Each system will have advantages and disadvantages inherent to the combination of herbicide and variety.” Anderson also suggests selecting more than one variety. “I would like to see growers have a couple of hybrids at least. It is not a bad strategy to have two or three varieties on the farm to be able to evaluate how they are doing.” There can be management issues when using more than one canola variety and herbicide in the same year, so good record-keeping will be important. “I’ve worked with growers that have successfully incorporated three herbicide-tolerant systems into their farming operation each year, but it’s more common to change herbicide-tolerance systems by year and have a single system each season to match the canola seeded — and lower the stress level of your sprayer operator,” says Gabert.

CPS and Proven® Seed are hosting several trials this year including Ag in Motion plot tours (July 18-20) and will showcase not only canola but also cereals, soybeans and others.

FOOD LABELLING

Proposed labelling has dairy group seeing red BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Dairy Farmers of Canada has grave concerns about a Health Canada initiative to flag certain foods as being unhealthy. The government is proposing to use front-of-package labelling to help consumers avoid foods high in salt, sugar or saturated fat. The regulation under development is part of federal Health Minister Jane Philpott’s Healthy Eating Strategy launched last October. “We’re trying to improve the diets of Canadians,” said Alfred Aziz, chief of the nutrition regulations and standards division at Health Canada. One of the biggest health issues in the country is obesity and its associated chronic diseases. An unhealthy diet is one of the top risk factors for obesity. Health Canada is contemplating using one of four proposed symbols, such as a stop sign with an exclamation mark, on the front of food packages it feels pose a public health concern. Proposed thresholds would be prepackaged foods that contain 15 percent of the daily recommended intake of salt, sugar or saturated fat or prepackaged meals containing 30 percent of the daily intake. That would amount to 345 milligrams or more of salt per serving, 15 grams or more of total sugar and

Whole milk would receive a warning label under Health Canada’s labelling proposal. | WP ILLUSTRATION three grams of saturated fat in prepackaged foods. The amounts double for prepackaged meals. Nathalie Savoie, assistant director of nutrition with Dairy Farmers of Canada, said the bulk of dairy products would be slapped with the “very negative symbols” if the regulation proceeds as outlined in a recent consultation document circulated by Health Canada. “It’s very easy to go over that 15 percent for sugars, for instance, or saturated fat or sodium in the case of cheese,” she said. Savoie said salt, sugar and satu-

rated fat information already exists on the nutrition fact labels attached to all prepackaged food products. However, Health Canada doesn’t think that is sufficient. It believes some consumers find the information too complex to understand. Savoie said under the existing proposal, skim milk, one and two percent milk and low fat plain yogurt would not have to sport the new symbol. Whole milk, cheese and anything with added sugar such as flavoured yogurt, yogurt drinks and chocolate milk would receive a warning symbol. There is no getting around that there is saturated fat, sugar and salt in milk, yogurt and cheese products, but Savoie said they are still wholesome products that contain all sorts of other healthy nutrients. Under the proposed regulation, products such as diet soda and most chips will not receive a warning sign while milk, cheese and yogurt will. “What does that tell (consumers)? That they should have chips and not cheese? That doesn’t make much sense to me as a dietician,” said Savoie. Aziz said Health Canada is not telling people to stop eating products containing the symbol but is simply alerting them that they are high in nutrients of concern. For instance, sweetened yogurt may exceed the sugar threshold

while plain yogurt would not. “We want to encourage people to choose the yogurt that does not have the symbol,” he said. Savoie said it might be easy to alter some food products to meet the new thresholds. Many products use salt for flavour and processors could find a substitute spice. However, salt is a necessary technical ingredient in cheese. It is used for food safety, to control fermentation and for humidity. It can’t be removed without fundamentally altering the product. Savoie said the proposed policy is completely focused on the harmful nutrients in products rather than the helpful ones.

Under proposed labelling, milk and cheese would have a warning, but diet soda and potato chips would not Health Canada recently conducted a scientific study that revealed Canadians have inadequate intake of eight key nutrients, six of which are contained in milk products. “It’s a wholesome food. Why should wholesome foods be negatively portrayed?” she said. Aziz said food manufacturers have ample opportunity to boast about the positive attributes of their products, such as printing health claims on milk jugs and

yogurt containers saying they are excellent sources of calcium and Vitamin D. “It’s not accurate to say that we’re only focusing on these three nutrients,” he said. “As a matter of fact, when you look at the front of the package now, not only in dairy but all types of products, you only see positive attributes of the food. What we want to bring is some kind of balance to that front-of-the-package label.” Savoie said Health Canada would also be sending out conflicting messages. The Canadian Paediatric Society recommends that children drink whole milk, yet the proposed regulation would result in a stop sign being placed on whole milk cartons. Aziz said Health Canada is still recommending that children younger than two drink whole milk and will be promoting that in Canada’s Food Guide and other educational and promotional material. The next step will be publishing the proposed regulation in the Canada Gazette, Part 1, this fall and receiving further feedback. Publishing the final regulation in Canada Gazette, Part 2, will follow. Aziz said introduction of the symbol will be aligned with changes to the nutrition facts label. Companies have until the end of 2021 to comply with those changes. sean.pratt@producer.com

FEMALES IN AGRICULTURE

Face of farming gets facelift FarmHer aims to showcase women in ag roles BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

DES MOINES, Iowa — Marji Guyler-Alaniz was one of about 100 million Americans who watched the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers compete in the Super Bowl on Feb. 3, 2013. One commercial made an impression on Guyler-Alaniz and millions of other viewers that day: an advertisement for Dodge Ram trucks. “It was the most popular commercial on the Super Bowl that year,” said Guyler-Alaniz, who lives near Des Moines, Iowa, with her husband and two children. The ad was called, “God made a farmer.” It was a tribute to farmers and featured photos of them on the land, on tractors and with animals. A few weeks after the Super Bowl, Guyler-Alaniz read a newspaper article about the ad, asking why so few women appeared in the commercial. The article sparked an idea, which has effectively changed her life. Guyler-Alaniz realized it was important to modify the stereotypical male image of farming through photographs and stories about females working in agriculture. She is now the founder and president of FarmHer, an organization

that shines a light on women in agriculture, documents the work of female farmers and encourages young women to work in the sector. “I’m a big believer … that if you can see it, you can go do it,” said Guyler-Alaniz, who is a photographer and worked in crop insurance for 10 years before starting FarmHer. “As a photographer, that’s kind of the basis of what I believe. It’s one thing to talk about it, but it’s a whole other thing to see it.”

MARJI GUYLER-ALANIZ FARMHER FOUNDER

She began FarmHer by taking photos of women in agriculture, and the project quickly evolved into something much larger. FarmHer now hosts motivational events for women working in agriculture and produces a television show on RFD, a cable station dedicated to rural lifestyles in America. She also sells a line of FarmHer merchandise such as clothing, hats

Carly Cummings, an employee of FarmHer, is working to change the perception that agriculture is a man’s domain by highlighting successful women in the ag sector and available careers. | ROBERT ARNASON PHOTO and jewelry. FarmHer now has three full-time employees, including Carly Cummings, who grew up on a farm in Pleasantville, Iowa. “We (women) are not the picture of agriculture,” said Cummings, who was at the FarmHer booth during the World Pork Expo held in early June in Des Moines. “It’s not weird for men working in agriculture to see women working in (the sector), but I think it’s different for men outside of the industry … to see, for example, me working on a farm. It’s not normal to them.” Networking and support Ali Rossman, an intern with the company, said part of the job is organizing FarmHer events for young women who are just starting out in agriculture. “(The events) inspire young women to stay in the industry,” she

said. “It’s definitely a male-dominated industry, but we see it going (toward) more women because there are multiple jobs in agriculture that need to be filled and companies are looking to women.” Guyler-Alaniz was the type of employee during her decade in crop insurance who did her job and didn’t complain about it, but being a young woman in corporate agriculture wasn’t easy. “It always felt a little more difficult than it had to be,” she said. “I always felt I had to prove myself a little more than some of my male counterparts.” Through FarmHer, Guyler-Alaniz is hoping to make it easier for other women by altering the image of agriculture. “I have met women who told me that they saw a picture a long time ago … and that maybe inspired them to start farming,” she said. “I want to share stories of women

who are doing great things. I want young women to see those great things.” Some of those stories may soon be about Canadian women. Guyler-Alaniz has applied for a trademark in Canada, and future FarmHer events could happen north of the border. As well, she wants to widen the audience of the FarmHer television show by making it available on a streaming service such as Netflix or Hulu. Guyler-Alaniz will likely continue to photograph female farmers and women in agriculture because she believes images change how people see the world. “Pictures are super powerful in our perceptions,” she said. “Your whole thoughts around the agriculture system can be formed by pictures.” robert.arnason@producer.com

NATIONAL RECOGNITION

Alberta 4-Her wins national volunteer leader award BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Life is all about community for Caroline Boddy. Her contributions to her adopted community of Forestburg in eastcentral Alberta and 4-H earned her the 2016 national volunteer leader of the year by a panel of judges, who made their selection from a pool of provincial winners. Boddy has been involved with 4-H since her childhood in New Brunswick. In 1995, she followed her mining engineer husband, Grant, to Forestburg and immediately starting looking for volunteer opportunities. Her first choice was 4-H and she ended up as a leader at three different clubs in the area. “This is my full-time work. I am an entrepreneur of fun. Anything that is fun I do it,” Boddy said. “4-H

Helping kids build self-esteem is a priority for Caroline Boddy. | SUPPLIED PHOTO always trumps everything else.” Her daughter, Maeven, 19, was a member and her son, Isaac, 16, is still involved. “I really enjoy 4-H. It is not because my kids are in it. I became a

leader because I like the program. After my children are gone, I will continue to be a leader because I love cheering for the kids,” she said. The Golden Prairie 4-H Club at Forestburg has 42 members and

draws on youth from a wide radius. The community also supports rodeo and beef 4-H clubs. Some clubs have closed in the region but others are going strong and people are travelling farther to join. “The kids are still out there and they still want to do it,” she said. Her club offers 10 projects, which includes everything from archery to busking. “I think that is why our club keeps members longer because they can do things as the years go on.” She offers encouragement and treats every child like her own. “I never get tired of watching them grow in self-esteem and confidence. When they succeed with a trick they have been trying to get, it never grows old for me,” she said. Boddy is travelling to Ottawa in July and is booked to speak at the Global 4-H Network Summit about

how to be an amazing leader who is encouraging and builds confidence among young members. “I didn’t know I was doing something different from other people and my secret is, I just say ‘yes’ to everything,” she said. While some organizations try to sell potential volunteers on the idea of contributing an hour each week, she has made helping out a full-time job. A master of time management, she is also a volunteer swimming, canoeing and archery instructor. She volunteers at a United Church camp and with the local ski patrol, library, Alberta donkey and mule club, Paddle Canada and Forestburg fitness centre. She also teaches drowning prevention and boat safety, search and rescue services. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

WALDHEIM, Sask. — Waldheim celebrated Canada’s 150th year June 24 with a car show, music, film, fireworks and its version of the popular TV show, Amazing Race. Canada and the Saskatchewan town’s histories were also marked in a Canada 150 book, compiled by volunteers Iona Greene, Anna Penz, Vicki Gossen and Diane Richard. Penz said the entire country is celebrating its history this year. “We wanted to be part of that and not be left out.” Penz said the book documents local and national events, including the creation of the Mennonite Trust in 1917 and the phasing out of the $2 bill and launch of the toonie in 1996. “The book starts lots of conversations,” said Penz. Waldheim’s Menno Home, which has provided employment, recreation and housing for developmentally challenged adults since 1963, continues to be a major employer for the town of 1,000. Greene said the biggest impact for the town came from the Homestead Act, which helped create towns such as Waldheim and settlements across the Prairies.

Family challenged by ag economics covet rural life BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

HAGUE, Sask. — The dream was to farm full time, but high rents, minimal returns and a farm accident intervened for the Harms family of Hague. Rodney started farming in 1998, eventually buying three quarters and renting 12, raising about 100 cattle and trucking. “I knew we couldn’t make it on three quarters so I did custom spraying too,” said Rodney. They grew wheat, barley, oats, peas and alfalfa, finding healthy markets for hay among the dairies dotting the region. “It looked like money,” said Irene of their good hay crops. It was an encounter with a horned cow that was a turning point for her. Irene was gored and critically injured while tending to a cow in April 2003, losing most of her left leg and enduring a recovery that continues today. Their 1920s home was modified for her wheelchair and she continued to work on the farm, picking up parts, bringing out meals and helping on the farm when needed. “Every day is a challenge,” said Irene, a native of Holland. After the accident, she had trouble with balance on a horse so switched to riding a buggy pulled behind a horse. A devastating fire in their heritage barn ended that enjoyment and led to the sale of the family’s horses. Farming also challenged the family, with Rodney’s trucking income required to pay for the farm. “All the costs started creeping up. It seemed to just be harder to make a dollar,” he said. Added Irene: “It got to the point where (we) got deeper in and had to pull the pin or we would have lost it all.” Keen to farm, their son and daugh-

ter-in-law joined them in 2009, buying and renting some of their own land. But land rent was high. “You couldn’t see yourself making a profit,” said Rodney, who sold all but the home quarter in 2015. Despite the setbacks, Rodney and Irene remain on the farm’s home quarter where they hope to one day raise cattle and chickens for their own needs.

ON THE FARM

IRENE & RODNEY HARMS Hague, Sask. Rodney works full time trucking while Irene pursues her woodworking and wire art talents. Irene displays her work on a Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ IreneHarms/ and plans to create a website. Trade shows are a less desirable marketing option, she added. “There’s so much work for such a little bit.” Irene said Rodney was told to move into the city after the accident, but nobody asked her what she wanted. “This is my life,” she said. Both love their country home and litter of dogs and cats and share a strong faith. Many Sundays, their home hosts 20 or more friends and family, said the parents of three adult children and three grandchildren. Rodney said the Harms farm provided a modest but comfort-

able living when his parents, Peter and Eva, farmed here, but today’s agriculture has changed dramatically. He traces his roots here back to Johan and Maria Harms, who left Ukraine to eventually settle the family farm in 1907. Rodney took over the farm from his parents, who once operated a dairy. “I still feel the attachment of many years gone by,” he said, recalling hitching the horses to the stone boat to haul away manure as a boy. “I guess I’m just a country boy at heart. The more I see of cities, the less I want to do with them.” The couple said farming isn’t just a living but a way of life. “I love the openness, nature, closeness with the land. I still have it out here,” said Irene. She laments the fact that smaller farmers have such a tough row to hoe. “It’s sad small farmers cannot stay home and live off the farm.” At this year’s Saskatchewan Century Farm awards ceremony where the couple received an award, they noted the number of farmers present without family to take over their farms. “The 100 year farmers may be a thing of the past,” said Irene. Their hope is for their farm to pass to the next generation. Their daughter, Tanya Van Dijk, lives in a new home with her husband just steps from Rodney and Irene’s yard. Both commute to jobs, she in nursing and he in mining, and have no plans to farm. “We love to travel, and animals tie you down,” Van Dijk said. “The plan is to buy the home quarter so the farm stays in the family, so Mom and Dad grow old here and I can nurse them at home,” she said. karen.morrison@producer.com

Two nights ago, our youngest son and I had a heart-toheart talk. I was trying to convince him to join a treatment program for alcohol abuse. He is 23 years old and already has had significant problems. His girlfriend grew tired of being publicly embarrassed by his behaviour and broke off their engagement. Few of the friends from high school days want to spend time with him. Many simply avoid him. If his dad was not the manager of the shop where he works, he likely would have lost his job. Our son is beginning to admit that he may have a problem with alcohol but he refuses to get involved in a treatment program. He thinks that he can recover from his problem on his own. Is it possible?

I certainly do not blame you for being concerned about your son. Once the talons of addictions have dug their way into the soul of the matter, the chances for recovery from alcohol abuse are challenging at best and most likely slim. Some people manage to dodge the volley of temptations on their own and resume their responsibilities without much fanfare and with little support outside of their immediate families. I think that it is fair to say that most people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. The one statistic we have that addresses this is that just about everyone who is registered in a treatment program, whether that is Alcoholics Anonymous, a rehab program in the department of health or a privately run residential treatment centre, has tried to beat their addictions on their own before they turned to someone else for help. With those odds, your son would fare the best in a valid support program. The success rate for treatment programs is also not as high as we might like it to be. About 25 to 45 percent of those in treatment programs successfully challenge their addictions. The biggest problem is relapse, with many having to work their way through two, three or more relapses before they were able to clean up their acts. Sobriety for most was not easy. Whatever your son decides for his own resolution to his addiction, I hope that you will keep in touch with him. One of the biggest problems people have when they try to stop drinking on their own is that they go private with the whole thing and become closet drinkers.

MARATHON TRAINING

Horses take veterinarians for a run Runner says people cool down more quickly, giving them more endurance than horses BY CHRISTALEE FROESE FREELANCE WRITER

CARNDUFF, Sask. — They jointly run an average of 160 kilometres per week and that doesn’t include running to veterinary calls and chasing after three kids. Dr. Marcel Macfarlane and his wife, Dr. Dawn Pauwelyn, are not only experts on equine colic, feline parasites and bovine prolapse, but they have mastered ultra-marathon running in their spare time. They have sometimes gone to extreme and unusual lengths to fit lengthy training runs into their schedules. Pauwelyn has run 29 km back to town after dropping off a car at her in-laws’ farm while Macfarlane has jogged 40 km to the U.S. border and back for a parcel. Macfarlane can sometimes be found running next to a horse and rider as part of his quest to train for 50 to 162 km races. “I’m always looking for ways to make training interesting, so I’ll call up my buddy, Jake, and say, ‘you ride, I’ll run,’ ” said Macfarlane, adding that while a horse has more speed, humans can have greater endurance. Relying on his vast knowledge of equine physiology, Macfarlane said that when the environmental temperatures rise, a horse can’t cool off as quickly and that’s where he can outperform a horse. “I’ve done runs with Jake and when we got back in after eight miles, those horses were beat, but I was still OK,” said the 45-year-old vet. What started out as a plea from Pauwelyn’s brother, Dave, for running partners in the Winnipeg halfmarathon 12 years ago has turned into a life-altering pastime. “It’s just fun to challenge yourself — I know I’m not getting faster, but I know I can always run farther,” said Pauwelyn, 47.

approximately 1,290 km of training each. The veterinarian couple runs for distance, but their times have earned them first-place finishes in a number of races as well. In 2009, Pauwelyn won Regina’s Queen City half marathon in a time of 1:29:59 while Macfarlane was recently a first-place finisher at the Spruce Woods Ultra-marathon in Manitoba, logging a time of 22 hours and 44 minutes for the 100mile (160 km) race. The pair said placement isn’t as important as running together. They agree that both couple time and family time, when the kids

participate, bring the greatest sense of accomplishment. “I liked running in (a 50 km ultramarathon three years ago) because the kids were there and ran the last mile with both of us and we stayed together as a family and even both won our age category,” said Macfarlane. Macfarlane and Pauwelyn agree that their veterinary backgrounds gives them an insight to the human body that allows them to train better, eat well and reach their maximum running potential. They estimate that they burn about 14,000 calories, or one week’s worth of food for most peo-

ple, in one 100-km race. Knowledge of carbohydrate intake, fat reser ves and calorie expenditure is important in both training and races. “On even the skinniest person, you have about 60,000 calories of fat in reserve so it’s a matter of training your body to mobilize those reserves,” said Macfarlane. As for future goals, the running vets said they simply want to keep running ultra-marathons. “I think it’s just fun to challenge yourself,” said Pauwelyn. Added Macfarlane: “When we’re experiencing activities with the kids, that’s the best.”

LESS WAITING. MORE REAPING. The only way to get faster dry down and easier harvesting.

Family affair Jointly operating Souris Valley Vet Services in Carnduff, Sask., and caring for children aged eight to 15 are the couple’s primary priorities. When they can, they incorporate the kids into their training like last fall when the family helped a local rancher move his cattle 32 km by foot. “We’re always training,” said Macfarlane. “A low-mileage week for me might be 40 to 50 miles (64 to 80 km) and a high-mileage week would be 110 miles (177 km).” Macfarlane was a volleyball player in high school and university before returning to his hometown area of Carnduff to practise veterinary medicine. Pauwelyn competed in her high school’s track club, but it wasn’t until her truck-driving brother encouraged her to support him in his effort to lose weight that she began training. The dedicated couple ran their first 50 km ultra-marathon in Idaho three years ago. “We were hooked,” said Macfarlane, adding that they trained about 13 weeks for the race, logging

SIAL INTERNATIONAL FOOD SHOW

Booth sows seeds of wisdom at food show BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

TORONTO — It’s tough for a pedigreed seed company to compete with chocolate and cheesecake tasting at a food show. Undaunted, Zeghers Canada of Holland, Man., set up a small booth and laid out its seeds to promote what it could offer those who need these ingredients. Sherry Hird, Zeghers’ representative at the SIAL international food show in Toronto this spring, said recent bad weather has increased demand for the company’s seeds, which are bought, cleaned and packaged at its plant to export and domestic customers’ specifications. Zeghers Seeds products range from mustard, buckwheat and peas to canola, canaryseed and flaxseed, and Hird said they have many uses. “There’s more than one aspect flax can be used for,” she said. The company sells to farmers for planting but also to manufacturers seeking ingredients for products, she added. Hird said the company’s growers come from across the Prairies. “We have a personal relationship with growers so try to deal with them directly and not use brokers,” she said. Zeghers forecasts what buyers are looking for, with some of their growers contracted to grow for

Sherry Hird represented Zeghers Seeds of Holland, Man., one of numerous agribusinesses that Manitoba Trade invited to participate in the SIAL international food show in Toronto. | KAREN MORRISON PHOTO them. Weather has been mixed in the Prairies this spring so a shortage of products could be possible. She said they draw from the Holland area where the plant is located in Manitoba, an area known as the “Goldilocks region” because it has never experienced a widespread, complete crop failure. Zeghers came to SIAL to meet buyers from around the world, said Hird, who added the show attracts participants from 60 countries.

“It’s beneficial for us,” she said, citing exports that resulted from attending last year’s show in Montreal. Hird said the business, which farmer Don Zeghers began in 1985, grew from a local need for clean seed and remains a family run pedigreed seed business now overseen by president Shawn Zeghers. Demand for healthier food and food security is benefiting Canadian businesses.

“We often get Manitoba companies into (SIAL’s) Canada pavilion to leverage the Canadian brand, which is highly valued among food products,” said Don Callis, executive director of Manitoba Trade. It brought together a number of provincial businesses. “We see SIAL as a world class food show where Manitoba companies have the opportunity to travel to Toronto but get to meet international buyers,” said Callis.

His department’s role is to help companies reach outside the borders and fulfill demand. “The agrifood sector in Manitoba is not a massive jurisdiction, but it’s massive on the global stage,” said Callis. “By reaching outside our borders and engaging international trade and fulfilling demand for these sorts of products, our companies can have a market of billions of people rather than a million.” There is strong demand from China’s burgeoning middle class, he added. “When people have more money in their pocket, they buy better food,” Callis said. Small processors might not have the resources, expertise or time to tackle such markets, he added, noting that’s where Manitoba Trade can step in. It provides a business with export counselling, examines its product, capacity and market opportunities and connects it with buyers and other federal and provincial government trade resources. It also provides funding to attend shows such as SIAL. Following up with clients helps Manitoba Trade determine the value of attending such events. “There may not be spot sales on the show floor, but it may make a big sale based on that meeting at that trade show six or 12 months down the line,” said Callis. karen.morrison@producer.com

Federal agriculture minister Lawrence MacAulay said the policy is intended to set a long-term vision that includes health, social well-being, the environment and the economy. It would also identify possible actions on issues such as production and processing. The discussions focus on four themes : increasing access to affordable food; improving health

and food safety; conserving soil, water and air; and growing more high-quality food. “The government of Canada is committed to improving access to affordable, nutritious and safe food,” MacAulay told delegates. He said the most vulnerable must be kept in mind and there is “room for improvement” when it comes to making healthy choices. “Knowing and learning about food can lead to healthier and more active Canadians and help decrease demands on the healthcare system and our policy must reflect that,” he said. MacAulay noted that climate change will affect production and quality but research and technol-

ogy will help farmers address greenhouse gases, soil degradation, water quality and availability, wildlife habitat and food waste. “I’m fully aware that food waste is a big issue in Canada and around the world,” he said. “That’s why this food policy must be an all-of-government approach.” About 20,000 Canadians have so far participated in an online survey, and regional consultations are expected to start this summer. MacAulay said those who can’t find consultation sessions in their areas should contact their MPs. A preliminary report is expected this fall and the government hopes to complete it by next spring. karen.briere@producer.com

GUY CHARTIER BEEMAID HONEY

Chartier said prices are stronger than they were a year ago, a result of export demand and findings from a European Commission study into the levels of adulteration in Chinese honey. Europe is the largest importer of honey in the world. “I think a lot of the European packers were a little gun shy about buying Chinese honey (before the report came out) because they really thought the numbers were going to be quite high of adulterated honey coming into Europe, and it ended up it was about 14 percent so I’m not sure it was as high as they anticipated.” While waiting for that report, Europe bought more honey from Argentina, pushing up the price. Buyers turned to Canada in search of a cheaper product, boosting prices here, Chartier said. Any surplus honey in Canada has now been sold and that bodes well for marketing the coming crop, he added. Grant Hicks, past-president of the Alberta Beekeepers Commission, said honey prices hover around $1.50 per pound, which is approaching break-even and far better than the $1.15 offered six to eight months ago. “It’s not where it needs to be yet, but it’s getting close,” said Hicks. “This is a great time of year because the sky’s the limit. Potential is a great thing but you can’t take it to the bank.” Hicks, a large honey producer based in McLennan, Alta., has about 11,000 hives, which he winters in B.C.’s Okanagan Valley. His record of low hive losses changed this year with the highest overwintering losses he has

75 YEARS AGO

Beef researchers scolded for lack of marketing policies 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: JULY 2, 1942 Farm organizations and the three prairie provincial governments — each of a different political stripe — gathered in Saskatoon to discuss how “to tackle the vexed and intricate problem of farm debt.” The meeting, called for by the Alberta government, was the first time that the three provinces had attempted unified action to deal with the debt issue. L.B. Thomson, superintendent of the Dominion Experimental Farm at Swift Current, Sask., partly blamed researchers for the sorry state of the beef business, which was called the most disorganized of the agricultural sectors. “What have we done, as technical men, to guide any policy for the marketing of beef cattle?” he said. Thomson said research often had no connection to market demand, and production studies were seldom followed up.

50 YEARS AGO: JULY 6, 1967 The large reservoir being built in central Saskatchewan was officially named Lake Diefenbaker. Premier Ross Thatcher had requested the name, to which Prime Minister Lester Pearson agreed. Manitoba’s industry and commerce minister said the federal government’s obsession with developing east-west transporta-

However, he said modern technology and the establishment of the Prairie Economic Council, which had made the “Bay Route” a priority, was tipping the scales in favor of the port.

25 YEARS AGO: JULY 2, 1992 Manitoba Pool Elevators and Saskatchewan Wheat Pool said they wouldn’t increase primary elevation tariffs because of the tough times facing farmers. The move was expected to pressure other line companies to follow suit for competitive reasons. The Saskatchewan government ended its subsidy to help feed livestock to market weight, prompting some to predict that 117,000 cattle would leave the province, forcing the closure of a packing plant. The FeedGap program had paid feedlots $13 a tonne, or $26 per head.

10 YEARS AGO: JULY 5, 2007 Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister Mark Wartman grudgingly supported new national programming agreed to during the ag ministers meeting in Whistler, B.C., but he also wasn’t able to hide his anger over federal refusal to change the

traditional 60-40 federal-provincial funding formula. “We are clearly dissatisfied with the traditional funding formula and we would hope that we’ll see a more equitable formula developed in the future,” he said. Manitoba crops were at serious

risk of fusarium head blight infection. “Fusarium risk depends on heat and humidity. For a while there, we were getting those in spades,” said David Kaminski, Manitoba Agriculture’s manager of farm production extension services in Carman. bruce.dyck@producer.com

AG NOTES NEW COLLEGE CHAIR

CANADA, GERMANY UNITE FOR RESEARCH

Leona Staples has been appointed chair of the Olds College board of governors by of Alberta’s advanced education ministry. Staples was previously a member of the College Board of Governors for two terms. Her background includes areas of business, innovation and agriculture. She is an owner and operator of the Jungle Farm, a farm and tourist destination that has been in her family for 110 years. The farm hosts several family based activities and features a variety of different projects, including a greenhouse, U-pick fruits and vegetables, and a seasonable vegetable box program that encourages consumers to eat healthy, fresh, locally produced food. Donna Maxwell has also been appointed to the board and brings experience in governance, administration and educational leadership. Board member Mark Kaun has been reappointed as a member for a second term.

Canada and Germany plan to work closer in four areas of agricultural research to help meet world demand for food and innovation: • Sustainable agriculture and climate change, particularly in the areas that protect soil and water, and breeding crops that are more resistant to the effects of climate change. • Agri-food, including crop breeding for nutrition and health and reducing food waste and loss. • Sharing best management practices and technology transfers to farmers and industry. • Personnel exchange, including exchanges of scientists and students between Canada and Germany to build on opportunities for collaboration. Canada’s agri-food exports to Germany in 2016 were $321 million, which represents Canada’s eighth-largest export market.

Australia alters pricing model to include carbon credit system BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Some Australian farmers saw their costs rise as new taxes shifted money from producers and processors to carbon reduction projects across that continent. However, a change in government put a stop to all that. Half a dozen years ago, a Labour government in Australia brought in an ambitious program that quantified greenhouse gas emissions from across society and set a price on them, transferring greenhouse gas taxes to those who were avoiding emissions or reducing them. Three years ago this month, a Liberal government canned the idea. Farmers were exempted from paying the Australian tax directly, but they did absorb costs passed on to them by other industries. Electricity, steel and other manufacturing sectors shifted their costs onto producers. Irrigation farmers who relied heavily on electricity saw large increases, along with other operations that rely on that power for fans, grain handling and processing. Under the carbon pricing program, emitters were allowed to earn marketable carbon credits in a scheme that paid them for shifting methane production from livestock to power generation, stopping pasture and field burning and improving carbon sequestration in soils. The hog industry saw government grants flow into some of its manure lagoons to sew those up. “It didn’t last long, the carbon tax.

By now we would have seen more costs for farmers, no doubts. Transportation fuels were set to be included,” said Don Campbell, a Victoria state crop and livestock producer. The government said exemptions for agriculture were largely due to the complexity of quantifying greenhouse gas production, but some opponents of the carbon pricing programs felt it had more to do with the tax being unfashionable for food production. The University of Melbourne and others developed greenhouse gas emission measurement models, which showed that agriculture was responsible for about one seventh of the nation’s output. The government measures, models, encourages producers to reduce emissions and reports results through its department of energy in a process mandated in legislation beginning in 2014. “It was the irrigators that took the big blow, the ones on the grid. Some electricity prices really jumped after the tax came on,” said Campbell. “There were some tax credits available for us, if you participated in programs or bought new gear.” A 15 percent tax credit was created for farmers who bought conservation tillage equipment in 2013 and 2014. That ended after the carbon pricing bill was repealed. As part of the Carbon Farming Futures fund, which was set up during the Labour government’s experiment in carbon pricing, dozens of agricultural research programs were initiated by farm groups and universities, looking at

mitigation opportunities and carbon credit development. Australia has had a carbon market since 2006 and has flirted with cap and trade regimes. Agricultural producers can sell credits based on their management practices. The Clean Energy Regulator now audits and ensures that carbon credits earned are legitimate, but farmers are responsible for providing empirical evidence of carbon emission improvements. The CER also auctions credits and abatement projects. Louisa Kiely, who runs an agricultural carbon credits firm in Australia, said the Australian model of selling credits has credibility in the global marketplace. As a result, farmers can earn salable Australian Carbon Credit Units by practicing conservation tillage, finishing beef cattle faster while still on pasture to reduce methane, installing more efficient water and manure pumping systems and planting trees. The director of Carbon Farmers of Australia said producers can participate in 25 and 100 year projects that generate credits that the government has been guaranteeing on behalf of large emitters, providing producers with 10 years of payments for their credits. Said Campbell: “It still appears a bit wobbly, but for those that are getting an income from it, I am sure it’s great.” The last three CER auctions of Australian carbon credits saw prices of $10.23, $10.69 and $11.82 per tonne. michael.raine@producer.com

EUROPEAN REGULATIONS

EQUIPMENT

Meeting EU emission standards can be a hurdle

Can equipment makers do more to make a greener machine?

Farmers in exportdependent countries might struggle under tougher European emission laws BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

armers might find it easier to reduce carbon and phosphate emissions if they live in a country in which the farm sector is stagnant and oriented toward domestic production. But it’s another thing for farmers operating in places like Canada, where agriculture is growth and export oriented. That’s what two European Union countries similar to Canada are grappling with as increasingly tougher EU environmental regulations are imposed. “The ongoing challenge for the dairy sector to minimize its impact on the environment in more intensively farmed regions in Europe won’t end because public vigilance will only continue to increase,” said a Feb. 10 commentary by Dutch dairy supply company Hoogwegt Group. “In the future, a greater focus on innovation to curb per-cow emissions while improving landuse efficiency will be needed.” That’s fine for most EU countries where domestic production dominates agriculture. Most farmers in those countries can manage emission reduction targets by increasing per animal or per acre farming efficiency. But a few countries with smaller populations, like the Netherlands and Ireland, see agriculture a different way. They are similar to Canada in that they have an export-oriented agricultural industry, and they view farming as a business that can provide export growth and new opportunities. Those hopes run headlong against toughening EU regulations and restrictions on carbon emissions and nutrient runoff. Not only do the changes make increasing agricultural production problematic on a per-animal-unit basis, but those nations face additional challenges if their overall national agricultural emissions are a significant proportion of total national emissions. Countries with comparatively small agriculture industries can more easily handle overall carbon and nutr ient emission demands by requiring more from other sectors and less from farming. They don’t face the same economic hit if they need to reduce their farming sectors. The EU knows it is walking a fine line between tr ying to squeeze carbon and other emissions out of agriculture while providing food security. “The agriculture sector needs to address the twin challenge of reducing its greenhouse gas emissions while at the same time

delivering a vital service to society with a growing global population: food,” stated a European Commission paper discussing the EU’s attempts to both reduce emissions and provide a secure supply of food. “A significant decline in livestock numbers and more efficient application of fertilizers and better manure management reduced the EU’s emissions from agriculture by 24 percent between 1990 and 2012 . . . “Given the central importance of food in our lives, a further reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture remains quite challenging. Nevertheless, there is still potential to further reduce the greenhouse gas emissions linked to food production in the EU.” The paper also mentions capturing methane from manure, better efficiency in using fertilizer and higher efficiency in meat and dairy production as examples of where gains could be made. It also notes that reducing food waste would reduce emissions that the wasted food created during production. Innovation efforts are going on across the EU, but unless a dramatic decline in emissions can be achieved quickly, countries like the Netherlands and Ireland will have problems increasing food production and meeting reduction targets. Dutch farmers have been given a series of reprieves from EU manure-spreading restrictions, but if another one is not provided by the end of 2017, its dairy farmers will have to reduce phosphate emissions by 8.2 million kilograms. That’s roughly equivalent to the elimination of 170,000 cows and a 10 percent reduction in Dutch milk production. Ireland is similar to the Netherlands in being a relatively small country with a relatively large farm economy. However, agriculture is an even bigger part of Ireland’s economy, making carbon emission reduction even

more challenging than the challenges Dutch farmers face with phosphate reduction. Agr icultural emissions of greenhouse gases make up about eight percent of Dutch emissions, but more than 30 percent of Ireland’s. France is another country with an out-sized farm impact on national emissions, at about 18 percent. Dairy is a much bigger emitter of greenhouse gases than other types of livestock and crop farming. That should signal that there are opportunities in dairy to make emission re ductions through innovations, but it also makes expansion difficult while also complying with overall emission limits. Yet the Irish, coming out of the 2008-09 world financial crisis, have been hoping for huge increases in agricultural production. According to Ireland’s 2010 strategic plan, Food Harvest 2020, the country wants: • an increase of 33 percent in the value of primary agriculture • a 42 percent increase in the value of agriculture and food exports • a 50 percent increase in milk production • a 20 percent increase in beef production By 2015, Ireland was producing 30 percent more milk than in 2007-08 and was on target to hit its 2020 goals. The EU has shown willingness to treat agriculture as different from other industries because agriculture provides food and security. It has signalled a willingness to allow agriculture-concentrated member states more leeway on greenhouse gas emissions. However, if EU restrictions cont i nu e t o t i g ht e n i n c o m i n g decades, as most expect will happen, how agriculture and emissions controls can learn to coexist is something many are anxiously watching. ed.white@producer.com

ajor technological breakthroughs designed to reduce the carbon footprint of diesel engine emissions may not be coming any time soon. “I don’t know of any new technology coming down the pipe,” said Harvey Chorney of the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute in Winnipeg. “I think they (equipment manufacturers) have gone as far as they can in terms of reducing the emissions on diesel engines,” he said. From Tier 1 to Tier 4, the emission quality of diesel engines has steadily improved. Electronics were introduced into Tier 1 engines about 15 years ago to help control fuel-to-air ratios injected into engines. Before this, engine fuel ratios were mechanically controlled. “Tier 1 immediately eliminated the thick, black smoke after starting,” Chorney said. A few years later, Tier 2 improved on Tier 1. Then Tier 3 engines with larger cooling systems were introduced, which were designed to enable engines to operate at hotter temperatures. “The idea of running engines hotter was to get a cleaner burn. So in order to meet those requirements, they were trying to optimize the fuel-to-air ratios and run them very hot so they would essentially burn cleaner.” He said engine performance recovery happened between tiers 3 and 4 with urea being injected, which significantly improved engine efficiency. Under those systems, a chemical reaction takes place in the exhaust system that combines nitrous oxide with the extra nitrogen from urea, resulting in only nitrogen and oxygen coming out, as well as a significantly cleaner exhaust. Introduced in 2011, Tier 4, as well as subsequent improvements, saw more focus on the exhaust and the use of urea while burning less fuel and operating under lower engine temperatures. Chorney compares the progression to the introduction of catalytic converters on motor vehicles during the mid 1970s. “When they started doing treatments on the exhaust pipes with the catalytic converters, all of a sudden the efficiency started coming back again. That’s the same analogy that happened in the diesel

emission categories. “They kind of choked the engines down to try and meet (emissions targets) between Tier 1, 2 and 3 and then they realized the only way they can meet Tier 4 was treatments on the exhaust,” he said. “It was very expensive, which is why they held off as long as they did, but when they did that, they improved the efficiencies of the engines back again. So that’s where the fuel consumption came back.” In the future, he said engine installation efficiency will improve by reducing pan sizes and by having smaller cooling packages. However, he said engine improvements are not necessarily motivated by the need to reduce carbon but by the race to stay competitive. “It’s driven by competition in that they want to take cost out, which probably means the price of the machines is not going to go down, but they may not increase as fast as they’ve been doing. “But the other thing that’s going to happen is there’s going to be an efficiency gain. There’s going to be more useful work done for a litre of fuel burnt.” Chorney said while manufacturers were tasked with the burden of trying to meet aggressive targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions on farm, farmers ultimately incurred the expense. “Manufacturers have added the cost of these systems into the units. In order to capture the cost the farmer got the benefit of having the lower emissionized engine, but they paid for the cost.” He said farmers pay for their initial machine and also for the ongoing costs of adding urea in their units and setting up an on-farm urea filling station. “All of those costs were incurred and no benefits from a farm perspective have come back. There has been a lot of contribution by the farms and really not much trumpeting in terms of (the general public) perceiving any benefits by it,” he said. Chorney said farmers have been doing their part for the past 15 years to reduce their carbon footprints. “Now, talks about a carbon tax that starts from zero and in the meantime, farmers have incurred considerable expenses on farm.” Unlike other businesses, Chorney said farmers are unable to pass the costs of lower emission machines on to their customers. william.dekay@producer.com

INVESTMENT IN CONSERVATION

Concern for land or just good business? A new financial model for farmland ownership and soil protection BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

BRANDON — When Manitoba farmer Scott Day presented his new business model for farmland ownership, farmers attending meetings earlier this year sat up and paid attention. Day explained his role in a new farmland investment venture with a San Francisco based private equity firm called Fall Line Capital. While dozens of American farmland investment groups are faltering and outright failing, Fall Line is expanding and attracting fresh sources of capital. Many Manitoba producers know Day from his 24 years in research and extension agrology with Manitoba Agriculture. In 2012 he quit the government job to work for the new company. Day still returns to Deloraine, Man., each spring, where he remains a full partner in Tree-lane Farms, which he runs with his parents. After hearing about Fall Line and visiting the website, some people aren’t sure whether it’s some sort of altruistic conservation movement or a purely profit-oriented business enterprise.

Day says it’s some of both. “Soil enhancement is major element in every farm plan we do. We only do what’s best for soil on each farm we buy,” he said. “That’s why we don’t do cover crops everywhere because it isn’t always appropriate. Just like we don’t do zero till everywhere, because sometimes it just doesn’t belong. The long-term health of the soil is at the core of every decision we make, and it’s part of every agreement we write when leasing land to a farmer. The underlying condition is that the lessee is not allowed to abuse our land.” Himself a veteran zero-till farmer, Day said he manages Fall Line land the same way he manages his own land. He said he made the jump from local extension and research into the world of high finance because there was an opportunity to have a positive impact on large tracts of farmland. It was the next logical step in a career focused on soil stewardship. “It started in 2010 when five of us from different backgrounds wanted to see if anyone out there was interested in taking our experience

and knowledge and putting it to work for them. We provide the expertise, the outside investors provide the money,” he said. “Investors have trusted us because they believe, like we believe, that protecting and improving the soil resource will always be key to a farm’s value appreciating. And because they have joined with us in a very long-term approach, we can make decisions carefully and deliberately with this in mind.

If you start with good soil and water, then protect and enhance it, you should always have something more valuable compared to when you began. SCOTT DAY FALL LINE CAPITAL

“If you start with good soil and water, then protect and enhance it, you should always have something more valuable compared to when you began.” Day said Fall Line co-founders Eric O’Brien and Clay Mitchell had connections in the investment

They were looking for diversity and better long-term stability. Food production was starting to gain more attention, so they examined that option. Their dilemma was whether to invest in food mega giants or closer to the farmgate on a smaller scale. Day, who classifies himself as an employee of the company, said the co-founders decided in favour of farmland. “ROI (return on investment) in farmland is like an eternity right now,” he said. “They wanted a physical investment, unlike so many previous investments that had looked great at first but then went down to zero. They weren’t even looking at short term 30 or 40 years like a farmer buying new land. They’re basically looking at an infinite time structure.” Day said private equity firms often tell potential investors a big story, and major investors wanted to know that Fall Line Capital wasn’t just telling them one of those. What they’re looking for is sincerity, he added. Is the presenter serious about

following through on his idea? “We often heard the comment, ‘if we’re going to invest in agriculture, then we want to invest in organic production because we know that protects the environment.’ “It took some time to explain to them that organic farming will not improve a resource you intend to own for a long period of time. Things like soil conservation and proper nutrient replacement will ensure that the health and quality and productivity of the soil we plan to own together will be maintained, or better yet, improved over time. “Part of our problem is that we waited too long to come up with this idea. Consequently, our investors also waited too long. We made our land investments from 2013016. If we’d come up with this idea five or 10 years earlier, it would have been really great.” Day said the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) law in the United States requires that money for farmland purchase come from U.S. sources, and these designated land purchase funds can be spent only in the U.S. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

However, REIT does allow Fall Line Capital to invest in companies dealing with innovative agricultural technology, and that money can be channelled into leading edge developments anywhere. Fall Line now owns farmland in four U.S regions: Pacific Northwest, northern corn belt, Mississippi Delta and Montana. Its farms range in size from 100 acres up to thousands of acres. Some restrictions REIT allows Fall Line to own and manage only land. It cannot own equipment or livestock. However, a loophole allows it to invest in a wide range of farmland improvements. Within that context, Fall Line can invest in tile drainage, irrigation systems and even grain bins, grain cleaners and rock pickers if that’s required in the agronomic plan. However, tractors and combines aren’t allowed. “REIT says we must work with the local farmer,” Day said. “We don’t farm the land ourselves. The lessee is responsible for running the operation. Our lease stipulates certain things about soil management. It sets out what must be done and what cannot be done. We’re in contact with our tenants on a regular basis, whether we’re on a straight cash lease or a crop sharing agreement. “For example, our Montana lessees have all kinds of wheat experience, but they’d never grown canola before last year. So I’m the person assigned to working with them on canola variety selection,

producers to farm its land. “Our tenants know they will have access to the latest farm management software and services, things like satellite imaging, Planet Labs, soil testing, plant tissue testing, field mapping, drainage equipment and any other assets he may not other wise afford. “We got together with all our tenants and our ag tech investment people in January in Utah. “We’re a community of likeminded farmers and innovators, and we’re all interested in using the latest technology to the limit. The group worked really well together because many of our ag tech investments previously didn’t have a direct connection with real producers.” Day said his Fall Line team provides the guidance, experience and expertise that an early stage entrepreneur would expect from a mainstream, top tier, Silicon Valley venture capital firm. They bring an unprecedented level of domain expertise in the agricultural market. “We function as a traditional early stage investor,” he said. “We also function as a strategic investor without the tradeoffs that often come with strategic investors. Fall Line wants to test these new products on our land.” Fall Line consciously promotes triangular relationships involving what they need in terms of equipment, how to seed and harvest, weed and disease control, things like that. “We have so many farms in the northern corn belt on a crop share basis that we hired a local agent who does everything for us. He manages the leases, crop inputs, seeding rates and helps them deal with problems. In the Delta it’s a different scenario again. We have more farms there, so we have two people managing them and searching for new farms. Once a geographical area gets to a certain critical point, we hire a qualified person to keep on top of everything.” Day said he’s not advocating this model as an answer for western Canadian farmers because the American farmland ownership scene is quite different from ours. Institutional ownership of farmland comes with inherent risks, he added. “Two of the institutional land owners in the States are run with public funds,” he said. “Their motivation is to spend money as fast as possible. It’s the same with money coming from Southeast Asia. I also see it in real estate here in San Francisco and out in Vancouver. They aren’t motivated by sound business logic or making good investments. Their motivation is to spend money and buy stuff.” Day said Fall Line is not allowed to own farmland outside the U.S. As well, there are Canadian restrictions on foreign ownership of farmland. However, there is nothing to prevent Canadian entrepreneurs from setting up a similar type of investment business to serve Canadian farmers. ron.lyseng@producer.com

itself, one of its nine leading edge ag technology companies and the farmer who leases land owned by the company. A example of this triangle involves Trace Genomics and Walther Farms.

We’re a community of like-minded farmers and innovators, and we’re all interested in using the latest technology to the limit. SCOTT DAY FALL LINE CAPITAL

Trace Genomics deals with early detection of soil-borne plant diseases with the aim of combating those diseases before the crop is planted. This results in reduced costs for the grower, increased productivity and less consumer concern about chemical contamination. Its unique soil test allows growers to take early steps in dealing with soil-borne pathogens. Walther Farms is a major potato producer with 12,000 acres on 12 farms across five states. As with potato production anywhere, disease is the biggest enemy, and fungicide application is one of the biggest expenses. Day said the triangle of Fall Line, Trace

Genomics and Walther Farms is a perfect fit for all partners. Trace Genomics says its proprietary molecular assay for soilborne organisms allows affordable detection of hundreds of pathogens as well as beneficial organisms. Its test uses genetic sequencing technology that enables strain-specific identification. The process uses the same kind of machine learning that is widely used in fraud detection. Automated data analysis helps build models that allow a computer to find hidden pathogen clues without being explicitly programmed where to look. The process identifies microbes and genetic mutations that cause a disease or that can fight a disease. Trace Genomics scientists use this data-driven analysis to understand soil health and design methods to increase the quality, yield and shelf life of Walther potatoes. “The producer can now focus on pathology and biology of the soil as it relates to potatoes,” Day said. “The producer did not have that advantage before our January meeting. It’s good for the land he owns. It’s good for the land we own. And it’s good for the ag tech company we invested in.”

BRANDON — Fall Line Capital agent Scott Day says the company he works for is filling a void in farming country. “There are large tracts of land for sale in cattle countr y, but nobody’s buying,”he said. “The ranchers have gone out of business, and there’s nobody in the area who can afford to step in.” Day said these are the types of areas where his company operates. Fall Line buys land, puts together an agronomic plan that fosters the health of the land and then leases the farm to a producer who will farm it according to that plan. “The second farm we bought in Montana was a large property owned by a billionaire family who only used it for hunting,” he said. “They owned 14 of these giant properties across the U.S. and just used them for hunting. “When we took it over we put about 6,000 acres back into crop production. Then we broke the rest up into manageable parcels and put it up for auction. The parcels were bought by two of our tenants and two other farmers in the local community. “It’s especially beneficial to the local economy when we take land that’s been sitting idle and put it back into agricultural production.”

CANADAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S FARM PROGRESS SHOW

Flax buncher machine nets inventor $5,000 in new contest The Better Buncher, scheduled for sale this fall, will sell for $12,000 BY ROBIN BOOKER SASKATOON NEWSROOM

REGINA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Farm Progress Show had a new feature this year called Farmyard Inventions, in which contestants entered farmmade agriculture tools and show visitors voted for their favorite product. Three contestants entered the competition, which had a first place prize provided by Peavey Mart valued at $5,000. Ryan Dennis from Holdfast, Sask., took the honours with his Better Buncher, a rotary flax buncher that puts flax straw in a pile for burning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we were growing flax, we were looking for ways to deal with the residue â&#x20AC;Ś. There were a few options out there, but none that were anything that I thought was adequate for what we wanted,â&#x20AC;? Dennis said. He eventually decided a rotary buncher would work best because operators wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to stop every time they made a pile. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a 12 volt system, so you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need any hydraulics or anything,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When it gets to the point where you want to dump, if your piles are

lined up or youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a position where you want a pile, you can just push a button and it comes out the back. The rake flips around and it starts the next pile instantly.â&#x20AC;? The Better Buncher retails for $12,000 and will be available for sale this fall. Evan Sauer from Edenwold, Sask., entered the contest with a grain sampler he developed that takes samples directly from swingaugers. It bolts onto the side of an auger on the bottom of the boot where the swing come up. Many grain augers already have an access panel where it can be installed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For most grain augers, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to drill or cut, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just direct bolt on,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have an adapter plate for Wheatheart. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a direct bolt-on for Sakundiak, Meridian and Brandt. Itsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; also a direct bolt-on for the Brandt grain baggers with the swings on them.â&#x20AC;? Sauer said the device allows users to get a better representative sample from trucks than by using scoops. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It works well if you have hired men, or for people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really care about sampling,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quick and easy, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out of

the dust and instead of grabbing heavy or light grain depending on where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re grabbing from the truck, this is a very mixed up, representative sample.â&#x20AC;? The sampler sells for $150, and the Wheatheart adapter plates sells for $40. The other invention entered in the contest was the BinKnocker, which is the brainchild of Ronald Gramlich of Bashaw, Alta. It consists of a puck tied to a rope that fastens along the side of a bin. Users can raise or lower the puck with the fasteners provided in the kit and then bang the puck against the bin to find out how full it is. The impact makes a different sound depending on whether there is material in the bin or not. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now we have all stainless steel hardware and a nice double braid rope that we had made right at Red Deer,â&#x20AC;? Gramlich said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It fastens on any bin in under an hour, and there are a variety of brackets that are available for fastening onto the legs of hopper bins and onto the catwalks of bins if thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what you have across the top.â&#x20AC;? The BinKnocker kit costs $275. robin.booker@producer.com

DIVERSE ORGANISMS, RESIDUE

Increase crop diversity, reduce risk by intercropping ORGANIC MATTERS

BRENDA FRICK

atural systems are diverse and include a variety of plants, animals, microbes and fungi. This diversity is considered a key to their resilience and stability. Intercrops are one way to bring some of this diversity to agro-ecosystem structures, accessing different portions of the soil volume. Crop diversity allows a more diverse community of soil and above ground beneficial organisms. Here are some aspects of intercropping to consider: Overyielding Overyielding occurs when the intercrop yields better than the two crops would have if they were grown separately. Crops that benefit each other by providing physical supports for climbing, improving airflow or reducing disease transfer may increase the intercrop yield. Crops that avoid competition by using resources differently, especially at different times, are likely to overyield. Improved nutrient use

easier. For instance, adding semileafless peas to leafy peas reduces lodging. Planting cereals with lentils can allow the lentil to climb the cereal and keep lower pods out of the soil. Flax, with its fibrous stems, can be a difficult crop to harvest. Intercropping wheat with flax can ease cutting. Wheat can also hold the flax in the swath. For delicate seeds, such as peas, having additional material from an intercrop can buffer them as they pass through the combine, augers and other gear and may reduce damage and improve quality. Insect control Many insects find their host

plant by smell. The addition of a second crop in the field can disguise the scent for searching insects. Intercropping canola with barley reduces flea beetle and diamondback moth damage to the canola. Similarly, intercropping mustard with barley or wheat reduces problems with these insects. Disease reduction Intercrops can change the environment within the stand. For instance, chickpeas are vulnerable to ascochyta blight. Intercropping chickpeas with flax alters the crop canopy and improves airflow. This reduces the spread of disease in the chickpeas.

Reduce weather risk Intercrops can be used to help compensate for variable weather conditions. For instance, in a mixture of sweet clover and red clover, the sweet clover performs better under dry conditions or on the knolls, while the red clover does better in wetter conditions and in the valleys. Seeding them together is a form of weather insurance. This can be an important tool in an uncertain climate.

They can also provide income stability by mixing crops that perform well in different conditions. Intercropping increases the crops per acre, which again increases income stability. Making it work

Economics

Intercrops have the potential to increase cropping diversity, reduce weeds, insect pests and diseases, and improve yields. They offer potential agro-ecosystem advantages but because they are more complex, they require more management.

Intercrops can provide economic benefits due to overyielding or by protecting high value crops from weeds, diseases and insects.

LIFE!

Planting legumes such as peas, lentils, chickpea, sweet clover and alfalfa with cereals such as wheat, barley and oats can be effective in improving fertility. The cereal takes up most of the available soil nitrogen, which pushes the legume to form an association with rhizobium bacteria to fix nitrogen. When intercropped with legumes, wheat may produce more protein, and forage might be more nutritious. Establishes green manure Intercropping is an important method for establishing green manures. Sweet clover, red clover and alfalfa are often established by under-seeding them with cereal crops. This provides effective weed control in the young legumes and some nutrient boost to the cereal. Cereals and legumes are ideal green manures. The legume provides nitrogen, but decomposes rapidly. The cereal decomposes more slowly, providing organic matter to the soil for longer. Weed control

However when caught early it is very treatable. The Man VanTM is a mobile PSA (prostate specific antigen) blood testing clinic, which helps educate men and their families on the importance of early detection.

Intercrops are often less weedy. Planting a mixture of crops can fill more ecological niches, providing fewer opportunities and resources for weeds. Flax, field peas and lentils often compete poorly against weeds, especially early in the season when their growth may be slow. Planting cereals with early vigour among the weaker crops can reduce weed pressures. Improved harvest Intercropping can make harvest

ALL CANADA SHEEP CLASSIC

Producers show off at sheep show Industry comes together to market genetics BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

RED DEER — Travelling overland to Red Deer was well worth the trip for sheep breeders from Ontario and British Columbia who walked away with the supreme champion ewe and ram at the All Canada Sheep Classic. More than 400 purebred sheep representing 16 breeds were on display at the June 29-July 1 show. Robin Herlinveaux and his son, Richard, of North Saanich, B.C., had supreme champion ram with a Hampshire. The Herlinveaux family raises Hampshires and Texels and after 30 years in the business, this is the first time they have won the supreme banner. The family also grow vegetables, which they market through farmers markets and the Island Vegetable Co-operative. They entered the sheep business when their four children had 4-H lamb projects, Herlinveaux said. Living in a Mediterranean climate allows them to start harvesting leeks in March, and they are cutting hay for the sheep by May. Their location on Vancouver Island does not hold them back from the national purebred sheep event or B.C. based events. This year they entered 11 head. “This is a good outlet for us. It is great to see other people in the business,” he said.

Gary and Luanne Brien of Ridgetown, Ont., won the supreme champion ewe with a Polled Dorset. Gary Brien said his family also appreciates the camaraderie of events such as this. Retired from the University of Guelph, he raises Polled Dorsets and Texels on a mixed farm. The family had a supreme champion ram in the past, and Brien said it is nice to be recognized for raising good sheep. “It is nice to get rewarded for your hard work,” he said. These events are fun and give them time to renew friendships. “This is my holiday. We go every year to the Classic and the Royal,”

BEEF DONATIONS

Sask. food banks grateful for generosity of beef producers BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

MOOSE JAW, Sask. — The Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association’s beef drive has far surpassed its original goal and continues to bring in donations for the province’s food banks. Shane Jahnke, who was re-elected president at the organization’s recent annual meeting, said the beef dr ive launched in early November was a highlight of the past year. Members were challenged to donate an animal, or make a cash

donation, to ensure food bank users in Saskatchewan had access to fresh protein. The goal was 1,000 pounds of hamburger. As of mid-June, the initiative had brought in 8,525 lb. worth $48,000 at retail. “This went above and beyond our membership,” Jahnke said. The drive didn’t go unnoticed. Gord Roger, beef business unit manager for Elanco Canada, presented Jahnke with a cheque for $10,000 to help with the beef processing costs. Elanco has its own project to help

deal with hunger and is working to specifically break the cycle in 100 communities around the world. Its 100 Communities fund recognizes projects like the SSGA beef drive. Steve Compton, executive direc-

tor of Food Banks of Saskatchewan, said the beef donations have meant families can prepare nutritious meals. “We certainly cannot begin to express our gratitude for what this amazing campaign has meant to

PRODUCER SURVEY

Cattle price transparency, fairness a global concern Although Canfax provides producers with cattle prices, there is little information on what packers are paying for beef or lamb BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Trust is the number one issue for livestock producers globally when it comes to price transparency, according to a recent survey. Cattle and beef price transparency and fair prices are subjects that generate a lot of anger yet there are no obvious ways to obtain that transparency, said agriculture economist Peter Weeks during the Agri Benchmark Global Forum in Saskatoon June 23. The survey targeted beef experts across the Agri Benchmark network, whose 30 plus member countries included all major producers and around 90 percent of world beef production. One of the main questions was whether cattle producers think they receive a fair price from packers. “What we found is that there is concern across almost all countries that producers do not always receive a fair price for their cattle from processor-packers,” said the Australian global meat and livestock market analyst. “If you do not know what other cattle are selling for and what the beef is selling for, how do you know you are getting a fair price?” Producers in the United States and Sweden showed least concern, while Australia, the United Kingdom and Peru had the most supply chain distrust. Canada was in the middle of the pack alongside France and Indonesia. “I was surprised to see the level of concern in Canada, given the excellent Canfax cattle price reporting and market intelligence service and the use of the CME futures market, and I note that the Canadia n C a t t l e m e n ’s A s s o c i a t i o n appointed a price discovery taskforce in 2014,” he said. “You might know what the cattle are selling for through Canfax, but you don’t really know what’s hap-

pening on the meat side, the beef side or sheep meat side further down the chain. That tends to cause producers all around the world to be a little bit distrustful of their buyers.” Canada also placed in the middle with some concern about supply chain market transparency. Producers in the U.S., Peru and Spain had the least concern while Australia, South Africa and Ireland had the most distrust. “There is moderate concern in Canada, despite the provision of some wholesale prices, a cut-out value and some retail prices,” said Weeks. He credits price reporting in the U.S. for greatly improving the trust within the industry.

PETER WEEKS AGRICULTURAL ECONOMIST

“Where there are active derivative markets (futures), there tends to be less concern about transparency and fairness. Outside of the U.S. and Brazil, few countries have this. If the U.S. experience is a guide, mandatory cattle and beef price reporting can overcome price transparency and fairness issues,” he said. “It doesn’t mean that they don’t get periods because of supply where they’re not getting the full benefit of the prices that might be seen. That does happen, but I think what they are now convinced of is that there is not collusion within the processing sector that is causing them harm.” Weeks credits consumers for helping drive transparency and

ultimately promoting supply chain trust, as well as co-operation and alternative marketing arrangements. “Increasingly, consumers are quite sophisticated and varied, and it’s harder and harder to fully meet their needs in terms of safety, product integrity, hormone and growth, organics and all the nuances that consumers are now coming up with,” he said. “The cuts that they now want and the way they want it cooked is getting a little more sophisticated. The only way to fully meet the consumer requirements in an optimal way is to have almost a fully integrated chain.” Weeks said relationships that provide feedback need to be built up and down and along the supply chain. He said feedback will break down from the grading system to the producer if full information is not provided with comprehensive details. More feedback equals better quality, which equals a satisfied consumer and happier producer. He said Australia currently has an extreme case where there’s a weak supply chain relationship with minimal feedback of carcass traits and grading back to the producer. “What we found in Australia is that there is far more variation within farms and within breed than there is between breeds and between farms,” he said. “They don’t actually know on their own farm which animals are performing for the consumer and which ones aren’t. “In general, without that carcass feedback getting back to the producers in detail against price, you just don’t know… which bull is siring the best animals for not just weight gain but carcass traits. “I can’t talk for Canada, but that’s where a lot of progress around the world needs to be made.” william.dekay@producer.com

MOOSE JAW, Sask. — The Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association says prescribed burning in a protected area that hasn’t been grazed for 50 years should not be allowed. The province’s parks ministry wants to burn about 320 acres of native grass in the Matador Prairie Protected Area before applying chemical to control weeds. The ministry had hoped to conduct the burn in April, but ranchers and others in the area say it’s a bad idea and would prefer grazing be used instead. Ed Bothner, who runs cattle next to the Matador, said the area is about eight kilometres from Saskatchewan Landing cottage sites and too close to the river breaks and coulees. “A large part of the opposition came from the cottage owners as well as from the community pasture patrons and myself, who border the prescribed burn area,” he said. “Our opposition to this goes deeper than just burning. They’re also using glyphosate on native prairie.” Bothner said the total protected area is three sections. The parks department wants to use fire to control exotic invasive Kentucky bluegrass and smooth brome. The cost of the burn was estimated earlier this year at $35,400. Rob Wright, a former parks service employee who represented Public Pastures Public Interest at the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association annual meeting, said the proposed burn area within the Matador protected zone has provided a tremendous body of research.

“It’s been rested for a long, long time and it’s an ideal place for research on a combination of grazing, fire, resting, control of exotics, and species at risk,” he said. Wright suggested the resolution opposing the burn be changed to include an offer demonstrating the benefits of grazing. But Reg Schellenberg, who grazes cattle near Matador, said he and others are totally opposed to fire. “The reason we’re concerned is in our municipality in 1986 there was 16 sections that burned up. Absolutely do not proceed with fire.” Wright said he understood that concern but added Saskatchewan Parks’ active burn program has been “100 percent successful,” and staff have 40 years of experience with prescribed burning. “The burn can be carried out safely and it is a park protected area and it’s a place where really good progress can be made … on managing grasslands,” he said. SSGA second vice-president Kelcy Elford pointed out that fire doesn’t always co-operate. In 2013, a fire jumped highways and roads and entered Grasslands National Park. “Every fire management practice is successful until it isn’t,” he said. The resolution was passed. Other resolutions passed: • to ask the environment ministry to randomly test elk and deer for tuberculosis • to have the agricultural labour shortage addressed • to have funding in the next agricultural policy framework for agricultural workplace safety education and training • for programs to assist with control of noxious weeds karen.briere@producer.com

THINK BENEFICIALS BEFORE YOU SPRAY

attle can become afflicted with large swellings both as individual animals or on a herd basis. Diagnosing, treatment and prevention are key factors producers and veterinarians must consider. Before proceeding, causes other than abscesses must be ruled out. Abscesses take time to develop so a sudden swelling may indicate another cause. When that happens, a few circumstances involving the animal’s history must be explored. First, the producer or the vet should clip the hair surrounding the swelling and thoroughly clean the area. This is called a sterile prep. Then use a sterile needle to poke into the area and aspirate the contents. This provides information depending on what we get back. If it is an abscess, pus will be present; if blood is present, it is evidence of a hematoma; if clear fluid is present it could indicate a seroma, and if peritoneal fluid or gut contents are found, it could indicate a hernia. The procedure needs to be carried out in a very clean fashion to avoid introducing germs. If it is a hematoma or blood blister, we want to leave the swelling to clot up. We don’t want to lance it because the animal may have a propensity to bleed or a bleeding disorder. Hernias may require surgery. The seromas are often fluid-filled cysts seen in dairy cattle around the carpus (front knees) or tarsus (hocks). The free-stall designs and bedding used in dairy barns today have significantly reduced these types of swellings. Some bulls get swellings around the hocks, which I call boggy hocks. They are an accumulation of excess joint fluid in the area. The problem can be caused by various factors and often draining them only leads to a return of the fluid a short time later. These types of swellings are usually left alone. They are not painful and only occasionally cause a functional lameness.

larger abscesses drain well and all the infective material is removed so the problem does not reoccur. Once there is a firm diagnosis of an abscess, we may sedate the animal and/or freeze the area. It is necessary to lance the abscess on a dependent part if possible and leave the opening big enough so it will drain. We only lance when there is evidence of pus right under the area we are to lance. The remaining pus is often flushed out with a flushing syringe or hose and pump. Farmers can be fooled in cases involving the navel area when a hernia comes up beside an abscess. Cattle have an amazing ability to wall off infections and we are fortunate that these infections seldom turn out to be a cellulitis, which is an infection that spreads through the musculature. Lancing and good flushing of abscesses generally cure the problem. By flushing, I mean washing out the area with things like surgical soap or a diluted iodine solution. If the cavity is very large, ancillary treatment with iodine-soaked kling can be put in to fill the area and a s ma l l a m o u nt o f t h e k l i n g i s removed daily. It is important to ensure drainage for a long time, so veterinarians will suture in a Penrose drain to facilitate draining, which is often removed after several days. During fly season, it may also be necessary to control flies. If a large swelling is properly removed, there is little chance of a blemish or reoccurrence. It is important to treat abscesses carefully and, if in doubt, have a veterinarian check it first because lancing into a hernia can have fatal results. Most swellings are not emergencies and treatment can be properly organized and planned into your schedule. The swelling will be greatly reduced and there should be no dockage at slaughter. In cases of multiple abscesses or hematomas on several animals, one must look at potential causes. Vaccinating with dirty needles or improper vaccination techniques, vaccinating in a rain storm or injuries from fences, gates or handling equipment can all cause abscesses on multiple animals. Watch for sharp points because injuries can lead to bruising and swelling and these sites are more susceptible to abscesses.

One cause of abscesses on multiple animals could be improper vaccination with dirty needles Veterinarians are extremely cautious about tapping into these joints. They debate whether the problem is hereditary and may be due to a slight conformational problem with the angle of the hock joint. In instances of abscesses, the situation will often be dealt with immediately. It is important that

Painkillers may be provided, but antibiotics are seldom necessary. Try and remove and dispose of the pus immediately to avoid contamination of the area, and clean and disinfect the equipment used. Roy Lewis works as a technical services veterinarian part time with Merck Animal Health in Alberta.

Most cattle producers are very happy to see the animals leave for summer pasture. However, there are many items of concern that need to be addressed during the grazing period to ensure continued productivity. Here are a few of the more common questions that arise while cattle are on pasture. Lame cattle on pasture, unfortunately, are not an uncommon occurrence. Frequent observation is essential to detect problems early before further complications arise. Accurate differentiation between injury and infectious problems, like foot-rot, is crucial so proper treatments can be employed. If unsure about a lame animal, it is a good idea to consult your veterinarian for advice. The most common Clostridial disease seen in cattle on pasture is blackleg. Symptoms can include depression, lameness, or abnormal swelling on the body or limbs. However, most affected cattle die very quickly and most often will be found as sudden unexpected deaths on pasture. If an affected animal is examined after death, affected muscle will appear dark red or black, thus the common name of the disease. Treatment of affected animals is often not practical as the progression of disease is so rapid; however, vaccination is an effective method of prevention of the disease. Consult your veterinarian to formulate a vaccination strategy that will work for your herd and situation. Grass tetany occurs in cattle and sheep when lush green pastures grow very quickly and the animal’s magnesium levels drop. Affected cows, which may appear to be grazing normally, suddenly throw up their heads, bellow, gallop in a blind frenzy, fall, and exhibit severe paddling convulsions. Animals may also die very quickly and be found dead on pasture. Consult your veterinarian or nutritionist regarding mineral supplementation and management strategies to prevent this problem. Anthrax is a disease that can occur sporadically depending on environmental conditions. The hallmark signs of anthrax are sudden death with bloody discharge from the body oriﬁces (eyes, ears, nostrils, rectum, etc.). If an animal is found dead with these signs, it is essential to contact your veterinarian immediately and not to disturb the carcass in any way until a veterinarian has examined it. Infectious anthrax spores can be released into the environment when a carcass is opened or moved and efforts for fast, accurate diagnosis and proper carcass disposal are essential. Anthrax is a disease that has the potential for human infection and it is a named reportable disease – any positive infections will involve government veterinarians to ensure proper containment protocols are followed. Vaccination for anthrax is possible and may be advised in certain situations – contact your veterinarian for recommendations for your herd.

Northern transportation corridor would have ‘revolutionary impact’ The University of Calgary plans to raise money to research the feasibility of a national right-of-way BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A Senate committee has endorsed a plan to build a northern transportation corridor that would revitalize the Port of Churchill. The banking, trade and commerce committee has embraced a proposal by the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy to build a 7,000 kilometre east-west corridor through Canada’s north. “(It) will have as revolutionary an impact on today’s Canadian economy as the coast-to-coast railway did in the 1800s,” the committee said in a news release accompanying its 50-page report on the proposal. “The idea is to establish a rightof-way that would accommodate highways, railways, pipelines as well as electrical transmission and communications networks.” The right-of-way would tie into existing infrastructure such as the Trans-Canada Highway, the St. Lawrence Seaway and the Port of Churchill. Kent Fellows, a research associate with the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy and one of the architects of the plan, said the Port of Churchill could be the focal point of the ambitious project. He noted that the 7,000 kilometre corridor won’t be built all at once but rather in bits and pieces. “We do have some infrastructure

up around Churchill, so that seems like a logical place where we’d expect the early construction to go,” said Fellows. The port is currently closed and its owner, OmniTrax, Canada is searching for a buyer. Fellows said it’s a shame that the port is closed because geographically, it is a natural port for shipping agricultural products to Europe from the prairie provinces.

We do have some infrastructure up around Churchill, so that seems like a logical place where we’d expect the early construction to go. KENT FELLOWS RESEARCH ASSOCIATE

The port had been serviced by the Hudson Bay Railway line, which stretches from Churchill south to The Pas, Man. The line is out of service because of washouts. “Basically since the dissolution of the (Canadian) Wheat Board you’ve got volumes dropping on that line,” he said. Ports have big fixed costs that need to be spread over as much cargo as possible. Otherwise, shipping rates get too high and volumes drop even further.

Fellows believes new road and rail infrastructure in the northern prairie region would pull more traffic into the port and drive down shipping costs, making it a more attractive route for exporters. He thinks the corridor would attract more agricultural traffic to Churchill and could draw in some mineral products out of Ontario’s Ring of Fire project. A revitalized Churchill could also reduce congestion in the St. Lawrence Seaway, where cargo on the small vessels used to navigate the seaway is often transloaded onto bigger vessels once they reach the coast. Churchill can accommodate the larger vessels, eliminating the costs and logistics associated with transloading. The Canadian International Freight Forwarders Association (CIFFA) said the northern corridor proposal is a major undertaking that would be difficult to complete and require overcoming a number of complex issues. In its presentation to the Senate committee, the association said the development of pipelines in the northern corridor would free up rail capacity for moving grain on Canada’s southern networks and would accommodate fluctuations in movement of containerized cargo. However, the group feels there is a better way to accomplish those goals.

“When it comes to the transportation of containerized cargo, CIFFA believes it would be more beneficial to add capacity to existing railways and ports in order to meet future transportation needs,” the association said in an e-mail. The Senate committee is urging the federal government to take a leadership role in building the national corridor, starting with a $5 million grant to the U of C’s School of Public Policy and its partner, the Center for Interuniversity Research and Analysis of Organizations, to further their research project. “It’s incredibly flattering that the Senate has made this suggestion,” said Fellows. However, he isn’t counting on money from Ottawa. The school is attempting to raise funds from a variety of sources for the next phase of the research project, which will be a series of eight sub-studies ranging from establishing the physical dimensions of the rightof-way to strategic implications for Arctic sovereignty. Those sub-studies are expected to take one to three years to complete. Fellows said the northern corridor is a huge undertaking, but he pointed out that the Canadian Pacific Railway has been paying dividends to the Canadian economy for more than a century. sean.pratt@producer.com

expiry, mother’s maiden name and birth date. Once entered, they advise you that the refund has been sent. These scams continue to be perpetrated for one reason: they work. Most people inherently do not like to be contacted by the CRA, especially when they are advised they owe money. Compound that with an aggressive collection narrative of a balance owing or the good news of a refund (common with a small reassessment), and you can see why some people fall for the scams. Here are some tips to ensure you are not a victim of these CRA scams: • Be skeptical: Although it may be difficult to tell the difference, do

cams and scammers have been around as long as there was money to be made and innocent people trusting enough to believe them. They have never been more prevalent with the rise of technology, social media and the increased global connectivity of the internet. As an accountant, my clients often ask about two very similar scams that involve fraudulent Canada Revenue Agency scammers:

The second most common fraud I see involves an email supposedly from the CRA advising that you are owed a refund of tax from a previous year reassessment. The email appears to be official and often includes CRA letterhead, various reference numbers and your name. This phishing scam then requires you to click a link and enter all your personal information, including social insurance number, credit card number and

not be fooled by official looking letterhead or emails. The CRA will never send you a direct email advising of a balance owing or balance refundable, asking for personal information or requesting your credit card information. To receive emails from the CRA, you must register for its “My Account” service. After registering, all CRA email correspondence sent to you will simply state that a new message resides within your “My Account” inbox and to log in to read it. • Do not act immediately: Scammers will do all they can to obtain your personal information at that moment, but do not give it to them. Instead, state that you are g o i n g t o f i r s t c o nt a c t y o u r

accountant or adviser. • Involve your accountant or trusted adviser: A quick phone call to them can easily determine your account status with the CRA by asking them to follow up. Often your accountant has seen this scam before and can advise you right away if this is a scam. • If you have been scammed, report it: As mentioned, these scams work, so do not be embarrassed if you have fallen victim. Instead, report it immediately to the Canadian AntiFraud Centre. Joe Renooy, CPA, CA, is an agriculture and business adviser in MNP’s Grande Prairie, Alta., office.

THE CRA COLLECTIONS OFFICER CALL The first and most common fraud I see involves impatient scammers acting as CRA collections officers. They call to advise you about an unpaid tax balance (unbeknownst to you), typically between $300 and $800. They create a sense of urgency, indicating that they have tried to contact you in the past so you need to pay immediately. If you don’t, the scammers threaten various actions, such as an RCMP officer being sent over to your home, locking down of personal bank accounts and tell-

Canada allows Dow-DuPont merger Asset divestitures required OTTAWA (Reuters) — The federal Competition Bureau said June 27 that it would allow a planned merger between DuPont and Dow Chemical Co. after both firms agreed to dispose of some assets. The announcement is similar to those made by U.S. and European Union regulators, who also allowed the merger to go ahead as long as the firms made divestitures they already have outlined. “The agreement reached today ensures that consumers and businesses continue to benefit from a dynamic marketplace,” competition commissioner John Pecman said in a statement. DuPont will sell a significant part of its global herbicides business and research and development branch to FMC Corp. Dow will sell its global business of certain specialized plastics products to SK Global Chemical Corp., the Competition Bureau said in a statement. The bureau said the asset sales were needed to prevent a substantial lessening of competition in the supply and development of some crop protection products and specialized packaging plastics.

Nobody covers farming better or in more detail than The Western Producer. We regularly post features, recipes, stories about machinery, livestock and agronomy, and reader contests. It’s a great place to check out what’s new and to talk to us about what’s happening where you are. Come check us out. In print and online, if it’s farming, it’s here. 1-800-667-6929 | www.producer.com |
