The devastation and disruption of Japanese port cities is raising worrisome questions about prairie farmers’ exports to that key market. “There are so many things happening all at once in Japan it’s hard to get

a really accurate picture of what the impact’s going to be,” said Canadian Wheat Board ocean transportation specialist David Przednowek. “There’s a lot of uncertainty.” The earthquake and tsunami that devastated many communities in the island nation’s central and eastern coastal areas killed thousands, has

caused dangerous breakdowns at nuclear power plants and has damaged many ocean-side buildings and infrastructure, including ports. Japan is a vital market for Canadian farm exports, buying almost $3 billion of agri-food products in 2009, according to Agriculture Canada. It was the second largest foreign cus-

tomer for Canadian wheat in 200910, buying 927,000 tonnes, according to the CWB. According to Industry Canada, Japan bought $979.7 million worth of Canadian canola in 2010 and $799 million of Canadian pork. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

As cattle prices soar to near record levels, optimism in the beef sector is following close behind. “There have been huge price rallies in basically everything, feeder cattle have been strong and cows and bulls have been extremely strong,” said market analyst Brian Perillat of Canfax. “We had some weeks we averaged $80 back in 2000-2001, but it is pretty near a record.” Cattlefax in the United States reported fat cattle hit $118 per hundredweight March 10, up $5 from the record set the previous week. Prices were collected from the six-state feeding region of Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas. Cu l l c ow a n d b u l l p r i c e s a re approaching records in Canada, trading at levels not normally seen this time of year. Cows averaged $73 per cwt. last week, but many auctions were trading them for at least $80. access=subscriber section=news,livestock,none

CATTLE | FROM PAGE ONE

Cattle prices reach near records Cull bulls hit more than $90 per cwt. “There were some guys who sold some big old bulls for over $2,000,” Perillat said. These mature animals typically go into the grind, where demand for ground meat across North America is strong. Imports of lean trimmings from Australia and New Zealand are down, but more foreign product may come into the countr y to meet demand. Imports remain well below the 76,000 tonne quota allotted to non-North American Free Trade Agreement countries. Grinding meat includes cull animals as well as trim derived from fed cattle. Further end meats are also entering the grind, so it is more common to see products such as ground sirloin. Cow exports and slaughter are down 25 percent this year, indicating producers are keeping them on the farm. “There are guys looking to get out but those cows are not getting bought up by slaughter plants,” Perillat said. “They are getting bought up by other producers. We are a little surprised at how these guys are retaining cows versus sending to slaughter.” However, that does not mean the national herd will grow because the 2011 calf crop is small. “Even if we start turning around and holding cows and heifers back, we are still going to have smaller calf crops continue to show up,” he said. On the other hand, 20 percent more bulls had gone to market by the end of 2010. Purebred sales managers say strong cull prices have encouraged producers to start replacing their breeding stock.

Rob Holowaychuk of Optimal Bovines Inc. in Red Deer said averages are up $500 to $1,000 per head on purebred bulls from sales he has attended. “The good ones are bringing a premium,” he said. Fewer purebred bred females are available this time of year, but he expects good demand as the season progresses. Rising prices for commercial bred heifers are changing producer attitudes, but favourable prices are tempered by escalating fuel and other input costs. High slaughter prices may also have influenced people’s decisions to change the bull battery this year.

Ag minister nixes GM alfalfa for now OTTAWA BUREAU

As MPs began debating a proposal for a moratorium on genetically modified alfalfa, agriculture minister Gerry Ritz said there is no prospect GM alfalfa will be approved. “We do have a case-by-case situation that we always put in place in Canada,” Ritz said March 10 after a speech to the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association. “We look at a number of factors including net benefit and so forth but having said that, there has been no demand for it so we have no intention of moving forward.” At the House of Commons agriculture committee that day, debate started on a motion moved by Liberal Wayne Easter and supported by New Democrat and Bloc Québécois MPs recommending to government that

50%

no GM alfalfa variety be approved for market until studies prove it would not harm the alfalfa industry or export markets. Easter said he was not prejudging the product, simply responding to fears expressed by organic growers during committee hearings on biotechnology. At present, there is no Canadian proposal to have GM alfalfa approved. “This is a moratorium, not a ban,” said Easter. “It is to let government ensure that there are no negative implications.” Ritz said that while a GM alfalfa will not be approved any time soon, he opposes the proposal for a politically motivated moratorium. “I’m not going to go as far as Mr. Easter and say there’s a moratorium. That stifles investment and science,” he said. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

NATURAL DISASTER | FROM PAGE ONE CHINA

Japan markets in turmoil The Canada Beef Export Federation said Japan bought 17,000 tonnes of Canadian beef in 2010. Pulse Canada chief executive officer Gordon Bacon said a bean trader he spoke w ith on the weekend thought that there might be shortterm disruption to shipments and sales, but the main pulse-unloading ports were not badly affected by the earthquake or tsunami. In the medium term, the problems might actually increase Japanese demand for Canadian products because radiation leaks from damaged nuclear plants could spook consumers and retailers about the safety of Japanese crops, fruits, vegetables and meat. “People there are going to be very worried about the fresh market there,” said Bacon. Przednowek said there will be many effects caused by the snarl up at ports. Anywhere hit by the earthquake or tsunami will need to undergo safety assessments and that will stop or slow ship unloading. “There may be no huge damage … there, but they’re going to have to be inspected to make sure that everything passes and is safe for discharge, whether that’s terminals or discharge equipment,” said Przednowek. “That sort of stuff is not going to happen right away because there are all sorts of demands on systems right now.” Many ships will be stuck waiting off Japanese ports as unloading facilities get back into operation and power systems are fixed. That will tie up some ocean transportation that grain shippers use. The first thought of the Canada Beef Export Federation staff in Calgary was for their staff in Japan, who they were delighted to hear from on the weekend. “They’re safe, including their families, thank God,” said CBEF vicepresident for exports Cam Daniels. But the office there, like thousands across Japan, is dealing with disrupted communication systems and rotating power outages. “According to our office, things will be slow until April or May,” said Daniels. That also applies to Canadian beef exports. “It’s going to slow things down and things will be delayed,” said Daniels. The Japanese market is important for Canadian farmers because it consumes a large amount of most prairie farm commodities and pays top dollar for high quality crops and meat. Japan’s disaster caused both commodity and stock markets to slump March 11, and some of the selloff continued on March 14, just prior to deadline for this issue. But by mid-day March 14, most crop futures contracts had retraced their early losses and showed signs of stabilizing. Cattle prices seemed to stabilize too, which began on March 11. Lean hogs futures, however, continued to slump. Japan is the biggest foreign buyer of American pork, as well as a major customer of Canada’s. Generally, crop and hog futures have been weakening over the past two weeks, so the slump on the earthquake and tsunami news was not the beginning of a new trend, but the continuation of an existing one.

SHIPPING | RAIL SERVICE

Farmers miffed at slow rail service Farmers frustrated | CP’s rail service failing to impress CWB, farmers or shipping terminals BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

NISKU, Alta. — Dale Scheetz sat patiently while he listened to Canadian Wheat Board chief financial officer Brita Chell talk about the board’s performance in the 20092010 crop year. To Scheetz, that’s history. What was more important to him and the other farmers attending the CWB Farmer Forum meeting in Nisku March 9 was when they can expect to move their feed wheat. “If we had to make mortgage payments on the payments from wheat…” said Scheetz, with every farmer knowing the end of the sentence. “I counted on hauling wheat in October and November so by this time of year I have some money. I have zero cash flow.” It’s not the first time Chell has heard farmers ask when they can expect to move their grain. “It’s been a very difficult year this year and we acknowledge this,” said Chell, citing a combination of factors that have hampered grain delivery. The biggest problem is the large amount of poor quality grain on the Prairies because of last year’s excess rain. Only 38 percent of wheat graded high quality this year, compared to 78 percent last year and the long-term average of 70 percent. C WB spokesperson Maureen Fitzhenry said traditionally by this time of year, 53 percent of CWB grain has moved, but this year only 46 has been shipped. She said the last har-

vest, with its large volumes of low quality grain, has skewed the picture. Most high quality wheat has been shipped, she said, but only a small amount of the low quality wheat has moved. As well, she said Canadian Pacific Railway’s movement of CWB grain is 25 percent below last year at this time. CWB director Jeff Nielsen said the board is struggling to find markets for the poor quality crop. Its customers are used to buying high quality grain instead of what it is offering. “We’re trying to find markets that would take feed wheat, plus maintain

our good customer base,” he said. “We’re better at moving higher quality products than feed grain.” Chell said the board has also had “significant issues” with poor quality service from CPR. “Right now CN (Canadian National Railway) is blowing CP out of the water in terms of service,” said Chell. “The significant rail issues with CP have been very problematic.” Chell said the board is trying to channel cars to CN rail lines so grain can be moved to the nine ships that are waiting at west coast ports, some for five to 10 days. It doesn’t take long for demurrage costs of $20,000 a day to eat up profits, she added. Nielsen said the board wants to work with the railway to encourage it to improve service rather than be overly critical. “It’s hard for us not to use badgering. We’re frustrated with CP. It’s been a major issue.” CPR spokesperson Breanne Feigel admits there have been significant challenges moving this year’s crop, but said the company is taking steps to speed up delivery. Feigel said CPR has leased additional locomotives, added cars and hired new employees in an effort to improve service. “The sharp increase in demand at the end of 2010 led us to a service demand issue we’re dealing with right now,” she said. Stefan Koehler of Wetaskiwin, Alta., said he has moved “not one kernel” of grain. “It means I have to pay bills and I

don’t know how.” He also wanted to know when he could expect to move some of his 25,000 bushels of feed grain. “I made contracts for February delivery expecting to get some money.” Val Katerenchuk of Vegreville, Alta., said she managed to jump in front of other farmers to deliver half of her No. 2 and No. 3 ergot-free wheat at the beginning of March when temperatures dipped to -30 C. While other farmers couldn’t get augers and trucks to work, Katerenchuk managed to deliver five loads of grain, the first she’s moved all year. “Normally we move a lot off the combine. This year we didn’t move any.” Her family’s bad experience has convinced them not to grow wheat anymore. “Every farmer is the same. They’re scared they will never be able to move it.” Wild Rose Agricultural Producers president Humphrey Banack said farmers want to know if the wheat board will be able to sell their grain. “It’s important to assure farmers in Western Canada their crop is going to move and get it out of the bins,” he said. “The board could be more forthright in assuring farmers.” Nielsen said he hopes CPR will improve service and the board can get the grain to the port. “Shipping is the issue. The sales are on the books. We can’t get it out there. Road bans will be kicking in in three to four weeks. It’s going to be a bloody mess out there.” access=subscriber section=news,none,none

SHINING UP FOR THE SHOW

ANIMAL HEALTH | ANTIBIOTIC USE

Producers deny antibiotic overuse Livestock sector on hot seat | MPs ask industry to voluntarily stop using drugs for prevention BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

The Canadian livestock sector has rejected demands from opposition MPs that they voluntarily stop giving antibiotics to healthy animals. Industry representatives told the House of Commons health committee last week that antibiotic use on healthy animals is prudent diseaseprevention. The committee meeting was sparked in part by a CBC Marketplace program about antibiotic resistant bacteria in supermarket chicken that the program linked to on-farm antibiotic use. Opposition MPs on the committee said critics of antibiotic use on farms have presented a believable indictment against the practice. “Are you prepared to voluntarily, because you don’t have the law at this point, stop using the antibiotics, at least on healthy chickens and other healthy animals?” asked Liberal health critic Ujjal Dosanjh. The answer was no. “Chicken Far mers of Canada believes the judicious use is the way to go,” replied CFC executive director Mike Dungate. Dr. Reynold Bergen, science director for the Beef Cattle Research Council, told MPs cattle producers “use antimicrobial products very strategically.” Opposition MPs said those terms are too vague to give comfort. New Democrat health critic Megan Leslie said it is unbelievable that antibiotics are given to healthy animals. In many cases they are overthe-counter products that do not require a prescription and are not monitored other than through farmer self-reporting, she added. “If you use a very low level all the time, it would be like feeding your children antibiotics with their breakfast cereal every morning to make sure they don’t get disease later on,” veterinarian Gail Hansen from Pew

Charitable Trusts in the United States told MPs. Rick Smith, executive director of Environmental Defence, raised the ante by insisting that overuse of antibiotics in livestock threatens to create resistant bacteria that will return Canada to the 1950s before widespread use of antibiotics became a key tool to fight killer infections. “Does the unnecessary use of antibiotics on a healthy animal like a chicken trump the necessary use of antibiotics for a sick child?” he asked. While opposition MPs sympathized with the critics, Conservative MPs bristled and industry representatives said those questions did not properly frame the issue. Dungate, the focus of most of the questions, said the antibiotics that are mainly used on farms are not the type used on humans. As well, if farmers waited until birds were sick, the antibiotics used would be more powerful and more dangerous because they are similar to drugs given to humans. He also took aim at Marketplace. “(It) was designed by its nature to be sensationalistic,” he said. “In doing so, it painted an inaccurate and incomplete picture of the Canadian chicken industry, production and antibiotic use and resistance.” He said some of the TV program’s tests of chicken products found bacteria resistant to antibiotics that are not used in the chicken industry. However, Dr. John Prescott of the Ontario Veterinary College told MPs the problem could be fixed if the government went back to a 2002 Health Canada report. It recommended that animal antibiotics be available only with a prescription, getting rid of own use and better policing of imports. The current system of divided jurisdictions between Health Canada, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Public Health Agency of Canada means no one oversees the entire file, said Prescott. access=subscriber section=news,livestock,none

GRAIN HANDLING | PORT OF VANCOUVER

Port unable to reach deal over loading grain in wet weather BY ADRIAN EWINS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

“Singin’ in the rain” is one thing. “Loading grain in the rain” is another matter entirely. After three years of negotiations between maritime employers and longshore workers at Vancouver, a virtual ban remains on loading grain in inclement weather. When the rain comes down in Vancouver, the curtain comes down on grain loading. There are two generally accepted methods of loading grain into vessels on wet days, but according to British Columbia’s International Longshore and Warehouse Union, neither is

safe and it refuses to participate. The employers, represented by the B.C. Maritime Employers Association, disagrees, but can’t convince the union to change its mind. “There is a lot of rain in Vancouver,” said Greg Vurdela, the association’s vice-president for marketing and information technology. “If you don’t load in inclement weather, you’ll be stockpiling the product all the way back to the Prairies.” ILWU president Tom Dufresne dismissed it as a non-issue, saying the matter has been resolved, but declined to go into further detail. Vurdela said grain is loaded in wet weather either by covering the hatch

and grain stream with a tarpaulin or by opening a “feeder hole” in the side of each hatch and inserting a pipe. “I assume producers want this to happen, to ensure their product moves to market in a timely and efficient manner,” said Vurdela. “We have the ILWU holding the entire industry to ransom on this.” Both sides agree safety issues are associated with the use of tarpaulins, but the employers association is convinced that’s not the case with pipes in feeder holes. The union maintains there is a risk the vessel could blow up when it’s loaded through the feeder hole. Beckett said the association has conducted scientific studies that

indicate that is not the case, noting there are no cases on record where a vessel blew up while loading through a feeder pipe. “However, the union has created enough safety doubts in people’s minds that it can’t proceed,” he said. Union reps visit captains of foreign vessels and warn them of the dangers, he added. The union and employers have a signed agreement verifying the safety of feeder holes, but the association said it doesn’t get transferred to the job site. There has been no similar attempt to resolve the tarpaulin issue. The employers say other countries don’t have the same restrictions as

Canada, putting grain farmers and shippers in this country at a competitive disadvantage. “We’ve done everything required in the past three years to demonstrate safety, but we can’t get compliance,” said Vurdela. Canadian Wheat Board spokesperson Maureen Fitzhenry said there’s no doubt the ban on wet weather loading affects the board’s ability to move grain to market. “We’re certainly always looking for more efficiency. We’d love to have 24/7 loading.” She said the board won’t get involved in the labour dispute and won’t comment on safety issues. “That’s not our area of expertise.” access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

SARM | FLOODING

Municipalities predict costly spring Big bills for Sask. RMs? | Flooding, road repairs and infrastructure upgrades a big concern BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Spring flooding was a recurring topic of conversation last week at a meeting of Saskatchewan’s rural municipalities. Soil is already saturated across most of the province, sloughs and potholes are filled to capacity and a heavier than normal snow cover lies across the entire grain belt this winter. As a result, municipal officials are bracing for a costly spring, fraught with flooding, road repairs and infrastructure upgrades. David Marit, president of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities, said it is still impossible to tell how bad the flooding situation will be, but municipalities are preparing for the worst. “It’s a huge concern,” Marit said when asked how bad flooding could be this spring. “A lot will depend on how this snow goes, but everyone’s talking about it and everyone’s concerned about it and rightfully so.” During a portion of SARM’s annual convention held last week in Saskatoon, convention delegates asked Saskatchewan environment minister Dustin Duncan about funding for municipal flood control efforts, emergency preparedness and the security of municipal drinking water supplies. The province has already announced a $22 million Emergency Flood Damage Reduction Program aimed at preventing flooding and reducing damage to communities, rural municipalities, farms and country residences.

The program will provide technical and financial support to protect homes and permanent structures. It will also provide funding to test and analyze potable ground water supplies. “We’re bracing for a ver y wet spring,” said Duncan. “We know that we’re sitting on about 200 percent of our normal snow pack … and we’re trying as best as we can as a provincial government in helping rural municipalities and urban municipalities to prepare for flooding.” Duncan said the province would assess the need for additional funding as the situation evolves. “The (Saskatchewan) Watershed Authority believes that ($22 million) is going to be adequate but certainly … if we go beyond that, we’ll have to take a look at additional money,” Duncan said. Arlynn Kurtz, a director with the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan and a municipal councillor from the RM of Fertile Belt near Stockholm, Sask., said RMs appreciate the fact that the province’s $22 flood program will cover the costs of engineering projects related to flood control. However, he reminded provincial cabinet members that engineering firms will be in high demand this spring and some flood-related problems will require immediate attention. “There are going to be situations that arise this year where there is no time for an engineer or to wait,” said Kurtz. “We need some very clear guidelines as to how we can proceed (with short-term flood mitigation projects) so that we don’t become ineligible for assistance in (emergency) work that has to take place.”

Duncan said the province recognizes the need for flexibility. Marit said 65 to 75 percent of the province’s 297 rural municipalities will be affected by flooding this spring. Personal uninsurable losses related to flooded farmland could be huge, he added. The province has already made changes to the provincial crop insurance program to deal with flood

related losses. Among those changes is a $20 increase in unseeded acreage claims to $70 an acre. Saskatchewan agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud said the government will be watching the situation closely. “I think what I’ve told some of our producers is that we’ll be there for them again this year and we’ll see what Mother Nature deals us going further into May and June.”

Above normal runoff continues to threaten Saskatchewan’s grain belt. The Saskatchewan Watershed Authority’s March forecast takes into account fall conditions as well as the snow pack and how much water it contains. It then compares the numbers to previous years. The unknown factor is how fast the spring melt will occur. There are concerns that the melt is late and will come quickly, leading to widespread flooding. “We know going in that the flooding could be as extreme as it was last year. It could be worse,” said agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud. “The cold weather is hanging on right now and that in itself is creating a bit of dilemma for producers in the province because we know it is going to go fairly fast.” John Fahlman of the watershed authority said the timing of spring melting has a big effect on runoff and flood potential. “The further we go into April, the faster it will melt,” he said. The authority is predicting well above normal runoff potential for east-central Saskatchewan and a band running from the Leader area northeast to Prince Albert and Spiritwood. Rafferty, Alameda and Moose Mountain reservoirs and Lenore, Fishing and Good Spirit lakes are expected to be high. The watershed authority predicts flow frequencies in the one in 10 year to one in 20 year events. Flows and levels in the Qu’Appelle River system will be similar to other high-flow years such as 1996 and 1969. Inflow into Lake Diefenbaker is expected to be near normal, as are flows on the Saskatchewan River system. Flows could be one in five years in northeastern Saskatchewan. Fahlman said an ideal situation would see temperatures warm up during the day to start water running but then freezing at night to slow it down. He also cautioned that it is only a forecast. “We see the threat but it may not materialize.”

CROPS | WHEAT-CORN PRICES

Bad Midwest weather could cause corn to top wheat Corn, wheat price spread | Low cost Canadian feed wheat going into livestock rations CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — U.S. wheat futures prices could drop below those for corn for the first time in 15 years if poor weather hinders production of the new corn crop. Analysts say it would likely be shortlived as prices readjust. The last wheat-corn reversal occurred in 1996 and lasted slightly less than a month. Yet the narrowing spread between the two grains is already having an impact in domestic cash markets, where wheat is starting to replace corn in some feed rations. Chicago Board of Trade wheat, a food grain, normally trades well

above the price of corn, which is primarily a source of feed for livestock. “We are seeing an incredible time here where corn could potentially catch up to wheat prices. For that to happen, we are going to have to really see a big impact from adverse weather in the corn market this spring,” said Terry Reilly, grain analyst with Citigroup in Chicago. Added Rich Nelson of Allendale Inc. in McHenry, Illinois: “I’d give it a 50-50 chance.” The spread between front-month Chicago Board of Trade wheat and corn fell to its lowest level in a decade

It would be a no-brainer to start feeding as much wheat as possible. SHAWN MCCAMBRIDGE GRAINS ANALYST

last week, with the premium for wheat over corn dropping below 40 cents a bushel for the first time since 2000. That price shift already has made soft red winter wheat, the type traded

in Chicago, cheaper than corn in cash markets serving the southeastern U.S. hog and poultry sectors. Wilmington Bulk LLC, a consortium of North Carolina poultry and hog producers, bought 100,000 to 200,000 tonnes of western Canadian feed wheat in recent weeks, industry sources said. CBOT traders said southeastern feeders may have booked even larger quantities of new crop U.S. soft red wheat, which will be harvested this summer when corn stocks will be most scarce. If the CBOT wheat-corn spread

were to reverse, with corn prices rising above wheat, the use of U.S. wheat as feed would rise further. The U.S. Department of Agriculture projects that 170 million bushels of wheat will be fed to livestock in 2010-11, or eight percent of production. At the same time, the amount of corn used for feed would likely drop from USDA’s current 2010-11 forecast of 5.2 billion bu., or 42 percent of production. “It would be a no-brainer to start feeding as much wheat as possible,” access=subscriber section=markets,none,none

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK | GROWTH PREDICTED

Economist sees ‘growth everywhere’ Financial recovery | Conditions look healthy, barring out-of-control inflation in emerging economies BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Two big bank economists expect the world economy to continue growing in 2011, which will maintain the foundation for today’s high commodity prices. Neither think that an economic downturn is likely, but they are cautiously watching for early warning signs of a recurrence of the problems that hit the world economy in 2008. “We are in a synchronized expansion,” the Bank of Nova Scotia’s Carlos Gomes said during the Canadian Wheat Board’s GrainWorld conference last month. “We see growth everywhere.” Added Paul Ferley, assistant chief economist at the Royal Bank of Canada: “Our bottom line assessment in terms of the global economic outlook is sustained, though gradual, growth.” He said the bank isn’t worried that the world will slip back into recession. “We’re not buying into the doubledip playing out.” Ferley and Gomes’ views are posi-

tive for the commodity price outlook because prices are driven by commodity demand, which is caused by economic growth. When the world’s financial system seized up in 2008, trade collapsed and economic activity slumped. C o m m o d it y p r i c e s cra s h e d a s demand died. However, the world’s economy has been growing since mid-2009, allowing commodity demand to resume. Customers are restocking depleted inventories, which will encourage world economic growth and trade. Gomes said the world’s financial system has recovered. The two key “stress and fear” indicators that he watches closely, the Chicago Board Options Exchange Market Volatility Index (VIX) and the TED spread, which is the difference between the interest rates on inter-

MAKING SENSE OF THE NOISE

bank loans and short-term U.S. government debt, are showing few problems. Since each is a form of early warning indicator, world financial prospects still look bright because the TED spread and VIX are low. “As of right now, conditions remain fairly healthy,” said Gomes. Ferley was more cautious, noting the danger of unexpected factors to disrupt world economic growth. He said geopolitical shocks, such as drastic changes in the Middle East, could drive oil prices higher and undermine the U.S. economy and global growth. “There is a lot of potential for that sort of geopolitical risk to play out,” said Ferley. “Will it disrupt the flow of oil? The closer oil looks like it’s moving to $200 (per barrel) versus $100, the more concerned I get. You get $200 oil, you’re talking a major hit to the U.S. economy.” Out-of-control growth and inflation in emerging economies could also cause commodity prices to surge, including oil.

MARKETS said Shawn McCambridge, grains analyst with Prudential Bache Commodities in Chicago. As a result, tightening supplies of wheat and a slowdown in demand for corn could put an end to the inverse. “When those price relationships get out of whack, they don’t stay there forever,” McCambridge said. “But if you had an extreme situation in … corn, you could have that as a long-term factor.” Analysts said it would take a major weather problem threatening the U.S. corn crop for corn prices to surpass wheat. “If we get a rally in corn in the new crop contracts based on delayed seedings, the old crop contracts will (rise) and we could easily invert the July contract,” Reilly said. McCambridge said any weather problem with corn could cause CBOT corn to spike, such as a delay in spring seeding, a summer heat wave or a delay in the fall harvest. Cash corn for delivery in August and September, just ahead of the next corn harvest, is already scarce and expensive. “If we get into a situation like we had two years ago, when you start getting a wet harvest and you push the harvest back two or three weeks, it could get ugly,” McCambridge said.

EU POLICY | INDIVIDUAL APPROVAL

EU’s flexible GM restrictions causes concern Each country decides | Ministers fear the plan will hold back countries that want to go ahead with GM BRUSSELS, Belgium (Reuters) — Britain has become the latest European Union member to question proposals to let EU governments decide individually whether to grow or ban genetically modified crops. Several large EU countries, including France, Germany and Spain, have already criticized draft legislation tabled by the EU executive in July, which would allow governments to restrict or ban GM cultivation in all or part of their territories. British farm minister Caroline Spelman questioned whether the proposals would do anything to unblock the EU approval system for GM crops, which has seen just two varieties approved for growing in more than a decade. “The operation of the EU decisionmaking progress does need to be improved, but we’re not convinced that the proposal will enable this to access=subscriber section=markets,none,none

Greenpeace activists use banners and signs symbolizing GM corn to protest the European Union’s plan to allow countries to decide whether to approve or ban GM crops. | REUTERS PHOTO happen,” Spelman said. A British diplomat said ministers feared the legislation could make things more difficult for countries such as Britain, which want to press ahead with research into GM crops.

EU government legal experts have questioned whether national GM crop bans provided for in the European Commission’s proposals would be compatible with the bloc’s global trade commitments.

Spelman agreed that any bans under the proposals were unlikely to comply with World Trade Organization rules and the EU’s own Lisbon Treaty, or stand up to legal challenges from biotechnology companies, farmers or non-EU countries. Spelman also questioned a draft list of reasons that governments could use to justify cultivation bans, such as to maintain public order, which the commission drew up in response to requests from sceptical governments. “We’re concerned that suggesting public order as possible grounds for a ban could have the unintended consequence of actually encouraging public disorder by certain groups who want to put pressure on member states to ban GMOs,” she said.

Ministers from France, Spain and Italy recently repeated their opposition to the draft rules as they stand.

Market correction might have found its bottom MARKET WATCH PAUL FERLEY ROYAL BANK OF CANADA

it is unclear if its measures will work. There is a danger that Asian governments could respond to rising prices by acting more aggressively to restrain inflation, which could cause a slump in growth and provoke a fall in commodity prices. “If this modest tightening that we’re talking about doesn’t do the trick, growth remains too strong, particularly within Asia . . . it could set up a bit of a cycle where we get a bump-up in commodity prices and then that quickly getting reversed as policy has to tighten much more aggressively than what we’re assuming at the moment,” said Ferley. If the boom-bust phenomenon occurs, as happened in 2007-08, the Canadian dollar could surge to $1.10, “but then, if you get a collapse in commodity prices … the (loonie) will sink with it.” Ferley said the Royal Bank of Canada thinks the loonie will likely stay near one-to-one parity if world growth is moderate and the AsiaPacific region doesn’t lose control of inflation.

he market correction that drove canola futures from a high of $628.40 per tonne Feb. 9 to a low of $541.90 March 11 might have reached bottom. You would think that the earthquake and tsunami in Japan, the biggest customer of Canadian canola, would have driven the oilseed’s price much lower, but it didn’t. As this column was written March 14, three days after the earthquake, new crop canola was actually climbing. Soybeans and corn also closed stronger March 14. This might be evidence that markets believe crop prices have fallen far enough to reflect the events that have happened over the last month. The drought in Argentina broke in February, and late season rain saved the soybean crop there. It won’t be as large as last year, but it will be better than expected in February.

Brazil generally also had good weather in February and March, although too much rain in Mato Grosso do Sul, the country’s fifth largest soy producing state, could prevent a record setting crop. Forecasts now put Brazil’s soy crop at 70 million tonnes, up from a forecast of 68.5 million in February. Also, China’s winter wheat crop appears to have survived the winter drought. Emergency irrigation, cloud seeding and a late winter snowstorm provided enough moisture to preserve the crop and allow it to be ready for spring rain. Oil prices climbed $15 per barrel on the unrest in North Africa and the Middle East in the last month, creating worries that high fuel prices would derail the global economic recovery. All these factors caused the big speculative funds to pull back. However, they might believe prices are now appropriate to current conditions. Investors are still jittery about the civil war in Libya and demonstrations in other Arab countries. But oil exports from the region are not yet seriously affected, so oil prices have halted their climb and even slid back a little. As Ed White’s story on page 6 shows,

many economists believe the world’s economy is on a better footing today than it was in 2008 and should grow this year. French consultancy Agritel told Reuters News Agency this week it believes demand from importing countries will pick up in April and investment funds might start to cautiously move back, particularly if tensions in the Middle East moderate. Several weather problems also have the potential to spark a rally. A lot of the U.S. hard red winter wheat crop is still in danger from drought. Western Canada and the northern U.S. plains have a heavy snow pack that will likely cause seeding problems. Russia will likely have a better crop this year, but there is a strong chance the government will keep the export ban in place until the end of the year. The earthquake in Japan will disrupt trade for a while, but despite the horrible human toll and devastation to homes, industry and infrastructure, the country will still buy grain and oilseeds. So we might be in for better prices ahead, but keep an eye on Saudi Arabia, the world’s largest oil exporter.

because of an intimidating display of police and military presence. The Saudi government is also sending troops to quell unrest in its tiny neighbour, Bahrain. But if an Egyptian style citizen revolt develops, that could send oil prices soaring and investors diving for cover.

MARKETS

THE WESTERN PRODUCER | WWW.PRODUCER.COM | MARCH 17, 2011

CANFAX REPORT FED PRICES SOAR Tight cattle supply and record high Chicago cattle futures pushed Canadian cash cattle higher. Packers showed new interest in buying. The Canfax average steer price for the week was $108.95 per hundredweight, up $4.87. Heifers rose $5.04 to average $108.39. Most of the trade was dressed with prices near the high end of the range. Alberta sales volume totalled 11,300 head, down 25 percent from the previous week. Despite unprecedented gains of $5‐$10 in the United States, the cash to futures basis narrowed slightly to ‐$5.77. Weekly fed exports to Feb. 26 totalled 9,581 head. Year to date exports are down 29 percent.

The record live cattle futures appear to be driven by speculation, and trade could be volatile. However, tight supply of market ready cattle and high Choice and Select cut-out values will limit downward pressure. Japan is a beef importer and the earthquake could hurt imports.

COW PRICES CLIMB U.S. imports of Australian trim have taken the edge off American cow prices, but tight supply in Canada pushed prices higher. D1, D2 cows rose $3.27 to average $73.29 per cwt. D3 cows rose 29 cents to average $61.79. Rail cow prices were $139‐$144. Butcher bulls rose 50 cents to average $80.83. Weekly non‐fed slaughter exports are down 34 percent so far this year.

FEEDER PRICE RISES Auction volumes increased thanks to milder weather and special grass cattle sales. Prices rose, supported by the stronger fed market. The steer average rose 63 cents per cwt. and heifers climbed almost $1. Steers lighter than 500 pounds saw moderate gains while 500‐700 lb. rose $1.50 and over 700 lb. were steady. Heifers 300‐500 lb. rose $1‐$1.50 and 500‐700 lb. heifers were steady to 50 cents higher. Heifers 700‐900 lb. rose 75 cents. Heifers over 900 lb. appear to have increased interest as seedstock, and prices surged $2. Auction volume totalled 41,952, up 39 percent from the previous week but down 21 percent from last year. Weekly feeder exports to Feb. 26 were 3,165 head, steady with the pre-

vious week. Year to date exports are down 33 percent.

CUTOUTS NEAR RECORD Other than a couple of anomaly weeks in October 2003, cut-out values are record high. U.S. Choice cutouts on March 10 were $178.71 US per cwt., up $5.83. Select was $176.98, up $4.60. Weekly Canadian slaughter volume to March 5 of 49,991 head was up almost three percent from the previous week but down 19 percent from last year. Canadian AAA cut-out values to March 5 were $169.25 per cwt., up $3.11. AA cutouts were $167.29, up $1.69. The Montreal wholesale market for deliver y this week rose $1 to $193‐$195.

CATTLE ON FEED There were 948,782 cattle on feed in Alberta and Saskatchewan March 1, down five percent from last year at the same time. Placements totalled 169,274 head, down 21 percent from last year. Marketings totalled 123,068, down 18 percent. Average placement weights have been down for four months, which will create tighter supply in May to July.

WP LIVESTOCK REPORT QUAKE SHAKES HOG MARKET Hog futures fell on news of the Japanese earthquake because it could hurt pork demand. Japan was the top buyer of U.S. pork in 2010 and the second largest buyer of Canadian pork. Iowa-southern Minnesota cash hogs delivered to plants were about steady at $62 US per hundredweight March 11, the same as March 4. The U.S. pork carcass cut-out value was $91.19 March 11, down slightly from $91.25 March 4. U.S. federal slaughter estimate was 2.15 million head, up from 2.14 million the previous week.

THE PURSUIT IS OVER

BISON STEADY The Canadian Bison Association said March 11 that grade A bulls in the desirable weight range were $3.50$3.75 per pound hot hanging weight. Grade A heifers were $3.50-$3.65. Animals older than 30 months and those outside the desirable weight range may be discounted. Slaughter cows and bulls were $2.50-$2.70. At the Saskatchewan Bison Association premium stock show and sale March 4 bulls born in 2010 weighing 400-499 pounds averaged $2.60 per lb. Bulls born in 2009 weighing 650750 lb. averaged $2.15 per lb. and 775-850 lb. also averaged $2.15. Heifers born in 2009 weighing 500650 lb. averaged $2.14 per lb. and 651-851 lb. averaged $2.10. Heifers born in 2010 weighing 360-430 lb. averaged $2.50 per lb.

SHEEP FALL Ontario Stockyards Inc. reported 1,365 sheep and lambs and 100 goats sold March 7. Light lambs were barely steady, and heavy lambs sold steady. Sheep traded $5-$7 lower. Goats saw strong prices. access=subscriber section=news,none,none section=markets,livestock,none

FARM POLICY | AGRICULTURAL SPENDING

CRAIG’S VIEW

Fiscal crisis both a threat and opportunity for change

he United States and European countries have record deficits and huge debts that threaten their currencies and economies. Canada’s deficit and debt are less onerous, but nevertheless a burden. Governments are looking for ways to slash spending and agriculture programs will be one target. The fiscal crisis presents an opportunity and threat for agriculture. Policy reform is usually driven by the carrot or the stick. For years the attraction of improved trading relations through the World Trade Organization was the carrot to encourage governments to reform agricultural policies. That failed. The stick of a fiscal crisis might prove more persuasive. American and European politicians are beginning to realize, as their Canadian counterparts did in the 1990s, that if they don’t get their budget in order, the people who own their debt will force them to. In the U.S., the deficits of $1.4 trillion in 2009 and $1.3 trillion in 2010 are, when measured as a share of gross domestic product, the largest since 1945. Citizens enduring reduced services and perhaps higher taxes will want the pain spread evenly. They won’t look kindly on reports like those in the U.S. of millionaires receiving farm support cheques, even if they are the exception not the rule. In agriculture so far, the cuts are mostly around the edges. Big changes are possible only when farm bills are rewritten. The U.S. will write a new five-year farm bill next year, the EU is working on a new Common Agriculture Policy for 2014 and Canada’s Growing Forward policy framework expires in 2013. If politicians, bureaucrats and agriculture groups are smart, they will use the impetus of budget restraint to fundamentally rethink agricultural programs. Current policies have provided some support, but are also dysfunctional. Many producers still can’t generate profits,

monoculture crops are encouraged, market signals are masked, surpluses are generated in rich countries that get dumped on poor countries and yet globally, food shortages have developed. Political courage is needed to abandon familiar but distorting policies and set out on a less costly but ultimately more rewarding path, with obstacles to profitability torn down to allow less government spending on income stabilization and more on innovation and sustainability. But the crisis also presents a danger if governments cut without considering consequences. For example, cutting all budgets by 10 percent could hurt research vital to future prosperity or damage inspection systems that ensure safe food. The timing for a radical policy change is good. Crop farmers have the potential for strong profits if the weather co-operates, and a long and painful herd reduction has turned the market to favour livestock producers. With better finances and a more optimistic outlook, farmers are likely more willing to participate in policy redesign. America’s largest commodity group, the National Association of Corn Growers, has already indicated it is open to the idea of shifting direct payments into more palatable programs like crop insurance. A recent paper by the Canadian AgriFood Policy Institute, an independent think tank, presents an intriguing concept of redesigning food systems to reach long-term goals. The system would: • produce safe, healthy food for Canadians and the globe’s increasing demand • provide clear signals from markets and customer demand; • support efficient, profitable production with good risk management; • protect the environment; These are worthy goals. The fiscal crisis presents an opportunity to pursue them.

ELECTION | CHUCK STRAHL

Chuck Strahl’s work ethic, humour will be missed on Parliament Hill NATIONAL VIEW

BARRY WILSON

ith the electoral dogs of war increasing the volume of their yelping in the political party kennels, Parliament is about to lose one of its genuinely good guys. Former agriculture minister and current transportation minister Chuck Strahl has announced he will not seek re-election. Since there is a high probability during the week of March 21 that

opposition parties will combine to defeat the government and force an election, these could be Strahl’s last days in Parliament after more than17 years. He was one of the first wave of Reformers elected in 1993 on a platform of cleaning up government and “the West wants in.” He leaves as the Conservative government is mired in a series of opposition allegations about election fraud, patronage appointments and arrogance — the things that drove western conservatives and entrepreneurs like Strahl to head to Ottawa in a western populist uprising. The NDP was quick off the mark with a news release March 14 noting that much of the Reform agenda that was a reaction to Brian Mulroney and his Progressive Conservative record

— deficits, patronage, favouring Quebec, a lack of Senate reform — marks the current government. “We have nothing to learn from the Conservatives when it comes to democratic reform,” Strahl said in Parliament in 1996. Indeed. Ironically, his March 12 announcement, coupled with a similar retirement decision by treasury board minister Stockwell Day, means that prime minister Stephen Harper is losing two of his senior western ministers and workhorses. Ontario and Quebec Conservatives increasingly hold key positions in the Harper government. It is time, it appears, for Eastern Canada to take the lead in the Conservative government. But beyond the political implications of the retirements, Strahl’s

departure will diminish civility, courage, humour and commonsense on Parliament Hill. Despite bouts with lung cancer because he ingested asbestos working in the forestry industry, the 54-year-old has carried some of the heaviest workloads and politically sensitive portfolios in the five-yearold Conservative government — agriculture, Indian affairs and now transportation, communities and infrastructure. He could be partisan and tough, a straight shooter. Yet he had a disarming sense of humour that endeared him to employees who worked for him, lobbyists and political opponents. And in a government that often seems hostile to media and information release, Strahl was available, chatty and forthright.

But mainly funny. Shortly after he became agriculture minister, the latest BSE case was found in an old dairy cow in his Fraser Valley riding. “She was old enough to have a driver’s license,” he lamented. Almost any interview would turn into talk about the new tractor he bought for his Chilliwack-area property that he rarely got a chance to drive. And in the days following his appointment as agriculture minister, he mixed up the letters of his difficult-to-spell last name on the wall outside his office, muttering that “someone is going to pay.” Staff who had endured years of bombastic management loved it, loved him. That little tractor is going to be getting a workout.

OPINION

THE WESTERN PRODUCER | WWW.PRODUCER.COM | MARCH 17, 2011

& OPEN FORUM JAPAN | NIGHTMARES

CARBON CREDITS | FARMER OPPORTUNITY

Speak up on the carbon credit issue Credits will increase profitability, say Bob Friesen, chief executive officer of the Farmers of North America Strategic Agriculture Institute, and Greg Marshall, president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan

he Farmers of North America Strategic Agriculture Institute (FNA-STAG) and Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan (APAS) recently completed a series of six meetings in Saskatchewan on the issue of carbon credits and the opportunity for farmers to benefit from being involved. The main reason the meetings were held was to communicate to farmers that now is the time to speak up about the opportunity to get paid for their carbon credits and be included in the upcoming regulations being drafted by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment. In May, 2010, Saskatchewan passed a bill called An Act Respecting the Management and Reduction of Greenhouse Gases and Adaptation to Climate Change. Regulations that detail how the legislation will be enacted are now being drafted. For farmers, these regulations will determine things like whether no-till production practices will be eligible to create offsets, how many tonnes of carbon (greenhouse gas equivalent) are stored in the soil per acre from notill production, what the price of carbon will be per tonne, and for how many years the farmers’ contributions will be recognized (retroactivity). These points, and others, are critical details that will determine whether farmers are legitimately considered as solution providers offering a service for the public good, or merely an afterthought.

FNA-STAG’s focus of concern and reason for taking a leadership role on this issue is because it provides a way for farmers to improve their profitability. FNA-STAG has recently paid out a substantial amount of cash to a handful of its members in Alberta who practice no-till production under the government-regulated market in Alberta. There is no reason that farmers in Saskatchewan can’t have the same opportunity. The remaining regulatory items will be political decisions, so the chance to influence is now. What are the key issues? What do farmers need to do? First, the carbon credits that farmers create from no-till production practices are an asset with real value. Don’t be bullied and let anyone tell you that since you’re doing it anyway, you shouldn’t be compensated for what you’ve done. That is not a fair argument. Do you think that Air Canada would let you put a package on a

flight across the country for free because they were going there anyway? That’s just absurd. Farmers have been using no-till/ minimum-till practices for years, which experts tell us sequesters carbon, reducing the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Many farmers started adopting no-till practices because it reduced soil erosion, improved soil moisture and reduced the number of passes with equipment, but that doesn’t change the fact that science has proven these practices take greenhouse gases out of the air and stores them in the ground. This makes them a legitimate valuable byproduct, owned by farmers, and an asset for them to sell. An issue that is raised by many farmers is that they think all this climate change stuff is bogus and they don’t want to have anything to do with that whole debate. To this we simply say, don’t debate it, just let

them pay you. Government should recognize that this revenue stream will help save the cost of farm income programs. As the government regulations are being created, they must include a market for the offsets that farmers create. The legislation clearly provides the opportunity for regulations to be created that allow farmers to sell offsets from no-till production practices. However, the legislation and draft regulations also clearly create incentives for emitters to avoid using credits to offset their emissions. Offsets created by farmers must be an option that is appealing to emitters. The sequestration rate per acre must not be discounted because of government perceived farmer moral hazard. And, the price must reflect the value of the offsets compared to other options. Capturing and burying costs are $90 per tonne. The market must include the years that have already taken place. Just because the government wants to start counting now, doesn’t mean that farmers haven’t been reducing greenhouse gases for the past 20 years or more. The start date for including offsets must be retroactive and that should go back to at least 2002. This would provide parity for Saskatchewan farmers with Alberta. The market must have a way for the offsets that farmers create to be sold quickly and easily and ensure the backlog of credits created from including retroactive years. Some features that have been suggested include using crop insurance records as the key piece of data Finally, the most important point is for farmers to call the Saskatchewan environment minister Dustin Duncan and the agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud. If they don’t hear from you, they will assume you either don’t care or are fine with not being included. access=subscriber section=opinion,none,none

EXERCISE ON FARM | IT’S CALLED WORK

Behold the biathlon: mix of this and that my kind of sport COWBOY LOGIC

RYAN TAYLOR

o one’s ever accused me of being a jock. Sure I played plenty of red barn basketball and backyard baseball, but I didn’t do a lot of organized athletic school sports. I never played football. I ran a little track because I could train on the gravel roads around home without having to drive 32 miles round trip each day for practice. My basketball

was strictly neighborhood league; we called ourselves the Smokey Lake Lakers. I wasn’t very good, but I was tall. We didn’t have wrestling in my school when I went. We didn’t have a baseball team. But I was plenty active. There’s always plenty of exercise for a kid growing up on a ranch. We didn’t call it exercise, though. We called it work. It was physical and it was part of my education, but it wasn’t what you’d think of as physical education. I did get time for recreation. I did a lot of hunting. I walked a lot of fields for grouse and hiked pastures looking for deer. I carried a shotgun or a rifle like it was an extension of myself. I did a lot of fur trapping for coyotes, muskrats, beaver and mink. Much of that meant strapping on my cross country skis, swinging a pack basket of

gear onto my back and heading out across the snow to the frozen lakes and sloughs on our meadow. So I suppose if I had to pick a sport where I’d have a little experience and a remote chance of being competitive, it wouldn’t be something normal like football, basketball or baseball. I’d have to pick the biathlon. Yes, the much celebrated biathlon: watched by millions of adoring fans, televised worldwide on network and cable broadcasts, kids trading cards of their favorite biathletes, stadiums selling out their entire venue for people wanting to see participants race on cross country skis, stop and shoot their rifles at targets, and ski some more. Or maybe not. But not every sport has to be about attracting fans. I’m fine with the satisfaction of individual achievement,

personal records and the camaraderie of a small team of skiers and shooters excelling at something that few people even understand. I really like cross country skiing, and I like shooting guns, and I like people who are a little out of the mainstream of sports. I need to find me a biathlon team to join. The biathlon is a Winter Olympic sport, though, so at least once every four years we can all become fans of the athletes that ski and shoot and ski and shoot. And if you go to the games to cheer for your favorite biathlon team, be respectful of all those competing. Remember, these athletes are armed.

Horrors of too much water haunt us all EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

JOANNE PAULSON, EDITOR

ne night I dreamed of a giant wave that gathered in the middle of the lake and crashed onto the shore, flowing at the speed of sound up the beach and toward the family cabin. Where this dream originated, I have no idea. There were no tsunamis in the news at the time and life in Saskatchewan was burbling along reasonably well: no outrageous weather, no flooding. Of course the dream was ridiculous. Small northern lakes do not gather themselves into standing waves and threaten cabins 50 metres from the shore. Yet it was one of the worst nightmares I have ever had. I woke up drenched in sweat just as the water reached us on the path. I knew, in my dream, we were drowned. Horrifically, a wall of water is not just a dream for the people of Japan, although it is certainly a waking nightmare. The weekend post-earthquake images were shocking, as massive waves pushed vehicles, buildings and everything else in their path as if they were tiny toys. It defies real understanding if you haven’t been through it and I certainly have never experienced anything so terrifying. In Saskatchewan, the talk last week was also about flooding. By all accounts, there really was no other topic of conversation at the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities meeting, and rightly so. The amount of moisture in the soil, added to the amount of moisture lying on the soil, will be a significant issue in many parts of Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Make no mistake; I am not downgrading the flooding issue on the Prairies. It could be serious without a perfect melt, and in the wider picture growing food is becoming increasingly crucial in a world of growing populations. I believe that people must deal with life as they know it, even as other people’s lives explode. Prairie farmers must deal with a potentially very wet spring, no matter what happens in Libya or Japan or New Zealand. It’s incredibly important work. Yet it is useful to gain perspective from disasters greater than our own. Japan is our trading partner, the third largest customer of prairie wheat. More important, the Japanese are our compatriots in the human condition. We face great difficulties, but they are facing demolition and death. I will think of them as our own waters rush in. access=subscriber section=opinion,none,none

MARKET SHARE To the Editor: I find it interesting that the (Canadian Wheat Board) uses the argument that multiple sellers in a market will push the price lower. In a radio interview Maureen Fitzhenry, a spokesperson for the CWB, states, “— in a pure open market, the law of economics is that there becomes a single price — things tend to arbitrage down to the lowest, sort of, possible value.” Arbitrage is actually the market force that keeps markets from going too far in one direction or another. In an open market there are many buyaccess=subscriber section=letters,none,none

ers as well as many sellers. What Ms. Fitzhenry and the CWB fail to present is that there are many buyers as well, whose market activity would stop the drive of prices lower and would even drive prices higher when warranted. In the March 3 issue of the Producer, Glenn Tait responds to my letter about the Australian experience after deregulation as having the opposite effect. His argument now is that since there are many buyers of wheat they try to “undercut each other to gain market share (and) are more likely to drive prices down.” How is this possible? To gain market share a buyer will lower his price? I cannot remember this economic logic during my studies to complete my master’s degree in economics. Buyers of grain are indifferent to the price of the grain they are purchasing since they hedge their purchases with a futures position. If they do not do this it can become very costly as the CWB, found out when trying to speculate on the futures market in the 2007-08 crop year. Buyers of grain make a margin on the amount of grain they handle; the more they handle the more they make. The price they pay is irrelevant as long as they can hedge the purchase with an offsetting sale, although they may offer a premium price to attract more tonnes to increase the amount of grain they handle.

It seems that the CWB would like you to believe many sellers will drive the price down and Mr. Tait would like you to believe that many buyers will drive the price down. In an open market, many buyers and many sellers interact to find a point of equilibrium, a price where they transact. Nowhere in any economics textbook or journal does it say that prices in an open market are driven to their “lowest possible value”. If that was the case the price for comparable wheat in the U.S. would be lower than the CWB’s price for wheat since the multiple sellers and buyers in the U.S. are ‘driving the price down.’ A simple phone call to an elevator just south of the border will confirm this is not the fact. The open market will increase the price we currently receive. Greg Petryshyn, Foam Lake, Sask.

In 1993, newly elected MLA Stelmach helped the Alberta government bring in the strictest farm animal care legislation in North America. As Agriculture Minister Ed said, “—we must show the public by our actions, that the humane treatment of the livestock in our care is a priority.” In 2006 that legislation was beefed up in our Alberta legislature. Meanwhile, as 2005 morphs into 2011 and the number of deaths and injuries pile up, Premier Stelmach steadfastly refuses to bestow the most basic of workplace safety rules upon the men, women and children who toil on our farms, ranches and feedlots. Even when presented with fact, reason, Canada’s Constitution, Alberta’s Bill of Rights, Judge Peter Barley’s recommendations in the Kevan Chandler fatality review (2008-2009), death and injury statistics and common sense, Premier Stelmach chooses to put profit before human rights, again and again. Some say this is to appease the unnamed contributors to Ed’s election campaign. Some say it is to protect the Alberta family farm. Premier Stelmach had an obligation to protect our farm workers, a vulnerable group of workers who in 2011 still lack protection of the Occupational Health and Safety Act, Workers Compensation Act, Employment Standards Code and Labour Relations Code. Farm animal care legislation provides special constables that rush into action when a call comes in about an animal in distress, with full authority to investigate and act. Yet when a call comes in that two farm workers are killed at work, the government inspectors called by the RCMP turn away because they did not have the authority to investigate or act. This sad case has sparked an unprecedented co-operative effort between the official opposition, Alberta Federation of Labour, Alberta NDP, United Food and Commercial Workers Canada, Alberta Center for Injury Control & Research and others to call on the Alberta government to immediately begin investigating all farm workplace deaths, serious injury or injury to a child. Perhaps now that Premier Stelmach is not beholden to the forces that have held sway, he will move his government to recognize the fact that farm workers are people — equal to every other person in Canada and worthy of equality at law, and so entitled to be protected by their government. Premier Stelmach still has time to show the public by his actions, that the humane treatment of the men, women and children who work on our farms is a priority.

their statement and the organization itself. I have studied at the University of Alberta for the last four years and my perception is that many Canadians do not know what they believe when it comes to GM and non-GM products. Students on campus are a sample of the rest of Canada; there are few with roots in farming but many don’t know the details of how their food is provided. Consumer uncertainty and perceptions stem from large amounts of information and mixed media influence. I am one of only 20-some students graduating with a bachelor of science in agriculture this year, compared to my parents’ graduating class of nearly 100 students in the late 1970s. It is disappointing how few Canadians have a desire to get educated about our food system or contribute to the agriculture industry. Why are so few young people interested in learning about agriculture? It could be the fact that there are mixed perceptions of current agriculture practices, even in post secondary institutions. Or it could be that the arguments surrounding GM (crops) are too extreme to allow a balanced opinion. I am proud to be the third generation from a farm family and it is shameful to see how few people recognize the importance of agriculture t o d a y o r t h e i r ro l e i n m a k i n g informed decisions. There needs to be more involvement from producers and those educated about our food system to be a voice for the Canadian agriculture industry, otherwise it will be drowned out.

HERITAGE SEEDS To the Editor: Are we losing some of our highly disease-resistant grain varieties to highly advertised corporate controlled varieties? Organic farmers cannot use chemically treated seed, therefore they have to use high disease-resistant varieties like Park wheat and Klages barley. For wild oat control, we look for early maturing barley such as Olli or Otal. Canada has an organization preserving heritage seeds, called Seeds of Diversity Canada. Anyone interested in preserving heritage seeds can contact this group. Robert Snider, New Norway, Alta.

AGAINST ZERO TILL Darlene A. Dunlop, Bow Island, Alta.

AG EDUCATION To the Editor: In response to the article “Can GM (genetically modified) and non-GM co-exist?” from February 24. When large organizations make claims to know what the majority of Canadians’ believe, they discredit

To the Editor: After reading The Western Producer for about three years now I feel compelled to respond. Zero till seems to be the growing trend. There is so much talk about how bad conventional tillage is for the environment. My grandfathers, my father and now I continue to conventional till, and I am proud to say I will finish my farming career this way.

OPEN FORUM What is zero till? You’re telling me what it’s not, but what replaces the tillage? Zero till doesn’t work alone. Chemical replaces the tillage. A burn off is done before seeding. Then one, two or three passes in crop, one of which is desiccating just prior to harvest. Then again after harvest another burn off is sprayed. Three to five chemical passes in one year on the same piece of land…. I spray once in June for weeds only but that’s it. I don’t understand how the environment authorities are worried about my cultivation when all this chemical is getting sprayed onto the land and into the water table if the conditions are right. I understand erosion, but replacing a metal shovel with chemical is not environmentally friendly. Pesticide use is not an option on my farm. Along with bad insects a lot of good insects and innocent animals and

birds are being killed.… I’m very proud to say my father was and continues to be my role model. Chemical was used sparingly. Cattle were never abused. The barns were cleaned even if it was -35 C. When equipment got to be 20 years old, it looked new. Now I am encouraged by industry to sell my land and rent it back so I can afford to buy the chemical, fertilizer and equipment I need to farm. If my grandfathers and father ever knew I did something like this, I imagine disappointment and heartache would be their reaction. I don’t know if my time on the farm will end this year or 20 years from now but I can truly say zero till (chemical dependency) is not an option. Future policy may force me to quit but I have already accepted that possibility. Until then, chemical use will

be limited, genetically modified crops will not be grown, implants will never be used in my calves (at least while they are on my property) and cleanliness will continue to be a priority. I hope every farmer in Canada has a successful 2011. Sidney Mantay, Springside, Sask.

GM CONCERNS To the Editor: Re: Response to Clark Lysne’s letter to editor (Open Forum, Feb. 24). I have several concerns w ith (genetically modified) foods. GM food production does not focus on soil health. Crops are being designed to grow on continually depleting soils. Soil nutrients from

THE WESTERN PRODUCER | WWW.PRODUCER.COM | MARCH 17, 2011

rural fields are transferred to urban centres (through food), and are not being returned. Poor soil health is the problem behind symptoms such as disease, insects, weed pressures and poor tolerance to environmental extremes (drought, freezing, etc). GM products are designed to be high in specific carbohydrates, amino acids/proteins, oils or vitamins and a diminishing level of mineral and other nutrients. Food is increasing in energy content, while reducing in nutritional content. The component of nutrition being lost is critical for accurate DNA/cell replication and proper cellular function. Cancer, obesity, diabetes, etc. are symptoms of malnutrition. GM production poses a risk in limiting the diversity of species grown. This makes the food supply less resilient and more susceptible to

disease pressures. The legalities and logistics of GM foods provide a potential financial and physical chokehold on the global food system by a few corporations. Growing a reduced diversity of food species, controlled by a few global corporation, does not provide a safe, secure or sustainable food supply. The resources involved in the creation and promotion of GM food would resemble exploitation, not heroism. The use of high tech solutions to low tech problems will cause a chain reaction of technologies to overcome problems created from the implementation of previous technologies.

Hampered communications SPIRITUAL VIGNETTES

Give weeds the once-over.

JOYCE SASSE

ur internet isn’t much use. It takes so long to download attachments and if I want to send information, I have to do it in bits and pieces. This is the common complaint for farm and ranch users of the internet across Canada. In spite of government promises that everyone would have access to this wonderful tool of communication, it hasn’t happened. And it doesn’t look like it is going to happen in the foreseeable future. Once the urban areas and smaller communities were served, service providers ran out of steam. Extra funding hasn’t been made available because Industry Canada doesn’t consider rural Canada to be a priority. For shame. The Alberta Rural Development Network, through its Return to Rural initiative, proves what a difference it makes for people in an isolated area to be fully connected. Young people and mid-career families are coming back to the farms in the HannahOyen area of south-central Alberta because they have been given the means to keep up with the market reports, promote what they produce and know what’s happening on the world stage. It is not good enough. If we are to have future generations of farmers and ranchers they need to be given the opportunity to freely use the communication tools that are available to their urban cousins. Why should a country preacher raise this issue? Because ignoring a specific group of people seems to be a spiritual concern. These are people who have worth alongside other people. This treatment also raises economic, political and social red flags. Surely our parliamentarians are capable of choosing a higher road. access=subscriber section=opinion,none,none

PAVING PARADISE To the Editor: The Feb. 3 issue of The Western Producer had a front-page article titled “Land a wise choice for investors, farmers”. It’s the kind of headline which makes me start muttering to myself. The article starts out more or less stating that farmers can expect to live poor and die rich having sold their land … It was a sad day when land became nothing more than a commodity. The future of food production is in jeopardy around any of our boomtowns. The signs go up, “Prime development land for sale”. Oh, it’s prime all right, often rich soil which has raised cattle and crops for over 100 years. Once it is devel-

oped, there won’t be a mouthful of food grown on it. Then, as people in the city see all that the boom is bringing, such as increased crime and drug pushing, they want to move out into the country. They shouldn’t fool themselves into thinking the criminals don’t visit farms and acreages. The developers will have paved the way for them. Usually from another province, these people show up with a wad of tempting cash and buy up pasture land/wildlife land, parceling it into acreages. The nearby cattle owner who could have added it to his/her cattle grazing program hasn’t a chance. They can’t afford to invest in it. The wild creatures which have lived there for generations will be disrupted or completely displaced. Road kills increase in boom areas, and the media call the wild animals a hazard. Just who is the hazard?

OPEN FORUM People with money seem to think they deserve a view, that they have the right to put pavement on paradise. Lakes which once had little cabins hidden in the bush now are almost obscured by three car garage mansions where the native trees and undergrowth have been destroyed and replaced with tracts of sod, and a huge ride-on mower. Some people hold our Charter of Rights and Freedoms up as a model, although I’m still waiting for a Charter of Responsibilities. When will we have a Charter for the Land? Oh, I forgot: it’s a commodity and if someone from the United Arab Emirates shows up and wants to invest in the last chunk of untouched land to build a giant wild west home, who cares that it means an end to the untouched land. Mind you, the foreign owned oil companies have already done

something similar. Money talks. The land is silent, just as we are supposed to be when the investment people roll in. C. D. Pike, Waseca, Sask.

CWB VOTE To the Editor: In response to Brian Otto in Feb. 24 issue. Proponents of the open market never seem to tell the story of the farmer who signs an $8 canola contract because he has bills or loans to pay and delivers it at the same time as someone else delivers a $13 contract. The first farmer does not benefit from the $5 difference, but if you deliver wheat to the (Canadian Wheat Board) early in the year and the price changes later, you do bene-

fit from that difference. I applaud the producers who have no interest in selling to the CWB who did not vote in the election. Why should they dictate to the farmers who do want a CWB? They already have the option of growing products that aren’t covered by the CWB including wheat. They certainly don’t seem to feel obliged to give us a CWB opportunity with canola. Also, regarding poor voter turnout, federal and provincial election results aren’t contingent on voter turnout. Results are purely based on votes cast. We were given adequate notice of election dates and information on what to do if we didn’t receive a ballot by a specific date. The general opinion seems to be, if only 41 percent bothered to vote, the other 59 percent are happy with the status quo. Judy Focht, Raymore, Sask.

LOST INVITE

Agriculture is life

To the Editor: In response to L.T. Jones recent letter, I too am becoming annoyed with the postal service. First my Feb. 17 copy of The Western Producer was a day late and now it seems they have totally lost my invitation to the royal wedding. Ian Dow, Avonlea, Sask.

FEUDAL SYSTEM To the Editor: Farmers beware. We are moving very fast toward the feudal system that our ancestors got away from in the old country back in the late 1800s where landlords and earls owned large tracts of property and had peasants working the land or caring for the property for very little fee. If you didn’t do as required of you, the job was given to someone else. You became unemployed immediately, no questions asked. In the Jan. 27 issue of The Western Producer, “Investment pools offer new land lease options,” is suggesting if farmers want to expand or to move toward retirement they should consider selling to an investment company. Possibly lease back the property for a five year term — at the end of your lease term is when you have lost control of your once owned farmland. It will go up for bid to the highest bidder or could be sold to some other corporation which may have a whole set of rules and ideas of farming. There may be (peasants) from other parts of the world that are willing work for less. Don’t forget, the machines are all leased by the manufacturer, and the agency selling them. All that is required is someone to operate them. Young farm families cannot start a career in farming this way; there is no security in it. They are better off to lease from their retiring family members and pay as they grow, and forget about the big show. Read about what happened to the crash of 1929, when all the big farms went bankrupt. History could repeat itself.

WILDLIFE | BEAVER DAMAGE

Sask. RMs seek solution to beaver problems Control program planned | Provincial contribution of $500,000 will likely be matched by rural municipalities BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

It’s been recognized for its instinctual engineering skills, immortalized on Canadian currency and celebrated for forming the backbone of North America’s early economy. But had a beaver ventured into the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Mu n i c i p a l i t i e s c o nv e n t i o n i n Saskatoon last week, it would have been hard pressed to find a single ally. Once a Canadian icon that represented industry and commerce, the beaver is now a reviled vermin, known for plugging culverts, flooding farmland, ruining woodlots and building dams where they are least appreciated. Saskatchewan agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud announced last week that the provincial government is willing to spend half a million dollars to reduce beaver numbers and minimize damage caused by the ubiquitous rodent. “What we’re going to do today is … give you $500,000 to work on the beaver situation and redesign the (beaver control) program,” Bjornerud told SARM delegates, prompting an enthusiastic round of applause. “I know that removing beavers has been a concern,” he told reporters later. “They (RMs) have got a tremendous number of beavers in many areas. It’s access=subscriber section=news,none,none

mostly due to the wet weather but also, fur prices have dropped over the last number of years so there’s far less trappers out there.” Bjornerud said the province’s contribution will come with no strings attached. “However they want to design the

program … that will be up to SARM and we’ll work with them to make that happen.” SARM president David Marit said the association would begin work designing the program immediately. Program details should be finalized before the end of the month.

“I can see this being a cost shared program and I can see … some of this money being used for beaver dam removal,” he said. “This $500,000, the way I look at it, is actually going to lever another $500,000 from the municipalities, so it’s a million dollar pool of money

and our municipalities are going to really appreciate that they are being cost shared 50-50 on this.” Marit said the program will likely be targeted at municipalities that are already spending significant amounts of money on beaver control. “We’re going to really work with the ones where we know there are some big issues and that’s mostly in the northeast part of the province. That’s … where it’ll probably get focused.” SARM will consider capping the amount that a municipality can receive, he added. It has yet to be determined what portion of the fund will be spent on beaver dam removal and what portion will be used for population control. “Whether it’s 50-50 or one-third, two-thirds, I really don’t know at this time,” Marit said. Beavers weren’t the only pests that landed in the province’s crosshairs last week. Bjornerud also told SARM delegates that the province would: • kick in an additional $150,000 for rat control this year, bringing total provincial funding for rate conrol to $750,000; • renew the gopher control rebate program, in which producers and RMs qualify for a 50 percent rebate on approved gopher control products; • renew a $50,000 commitment to fund SARM’s wild boar control program for another year.

CATTLE | CALF PRICES

Alberta unveils new insurance option for cattle producers BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

CLARESHOLM, Alta. — Alberta cow-calf producers have a new insurance option to guard against price declines. Alberta Agriculture released details March 7 of the Cattle Price Insurance Program for calves (CPIP-Calf ), which is the third cattle insurance program developed and implemented by the department. The other two programs insure price risk for fed and feeder cattle. “We can now insure the whole pro-

duction cycle,” said CPIP co-ordinator Jennifer Wood, in a March 8 presentation to cattle producers. The calf program differs from the fed and feeder insurance programs in its length. It is designed for producers to sign up in spring to protect against price drops when they sell those calves in fall, at an estimated weight of 550 to 650 pounds, said Wood. CPIP-Calf is available from February to May and policies expire during the fall calf run from September to December. Producers register for a known floor

price they expect to receive for their calves and if the price does not reach that point, a payment can be triggered. However, producers are not limited in their ability to sell at higher prices if the market is higher. Wood said insurance premiums vary depending on the length of term that producers choose, but are generally in the range of $10 to $30 per head. That same per head range is also applicable to the feeder program, Wood said. “You pay one premium and you know what you’re covered for.”

The feeder program is based on a 750 to 950 pound animal at sale, and the program is available year round with policy lengths of 12 to 36 weeks. During the last four weeks of the policy, insurance holders can make a claim if the cash market is below their selected coverage level. Coverage is based on 95 percent of a forecast price developed by the Agriculture Financial Services Corporation (AFSC), which is based on futures data, the Canada-U.S. exchange rate and the basis estimate. Premiums are charged per hundredweight.

“It’s a risk management tool that reflects the risk of feeding cattle in Alberta,” said Wood. “You are not locked into a price as you would be if you were doing a forward price contract.” Wood said 22 Alberta auction markets across the province supply sale data to AFSC so it can calculate averages and determine its coverage levels. A price insurance program is also being developed for hogs and is expected to be ready by late spring. To use the programs, producers must first register with AFSC. access=subscriber section=livestock,news,none

FARM SAFETY | COMBINE

‘I’m too young to die:’ survivor Lucky to be alive | Farm accident victim advises others to slow down and be safe BY CHRISTALEE FROESE

Kevin Giroux, left, has been taught by his dad, Louis, and mom, Gina, that safety comes first. |

CHRISTALEE FROESE PHOTO

FREELANCE WRITER

It crossed Louis Giroux’s mind as he stepped down from his tractor on a September day in 1979 that he should turn off the power take-off. But it was harvest, time was of the essence and he was confident that unplugging his pull-type combine would take just a few seconds. Those few seconds are ones Louis wishes he had back. “That one second can be the difference between life or death,” said the farmer from Montmartre, Sask. In an instant, he found himself sucked into the header of his combine. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

“I unplugged it and all of a sudden it just took off and caught my pant leg.” The only thing that prevented Louis, who was 29 at the time, from being swept into the combine was the hard heel of his cowboy boot that caught under the centre strand of the feeder chain. He was trapped under the auger with three metal prongs through his leg and his body inching toward the c omb i n e i nta k e. Hi s bo o t ha d momentarily stopped him from being pulled to his inevitable death,

but the header was still engaged. “I thought, ‘I’m too young to die.’ ” Fortunately, the clutch overheated and kicked out, giving Louis about five minutes to breathe and regain his strength. But when the mechanism cooled, it kicked in again with force, dragging him another inch or more toward the intake. He hung on, holding with all his might to the bottom of the auger while keeping his leg braced against the combine. While his leg had been punctured all the way through three times,

twice in the thigh and once in the calf, he didn’t feel pain. “When you’re going to die, there isn’t much feeling in your body. It’s more of a mental thing.” Hope returned when Louis heard his neighbours in the next field shutting down for the night. Though he could hear their voices, his screams for help could not be heard over the noise of his running tractor. The neighbours left, not knowing that their neighbour was slowly being pulled into his combine, inch by inch. “I talked to the Lord a lot and hoped that things were going to turn out.” Back at the farm, Louis’s wife, Gina, was bathing their young children, Tanya, 5, and Kevin, 3. She had dropped off supper to her husband in the field around 6:30 p.m. and knew he probably wouldn’t get back to the house until around 10 p.m. As 10 p.m. approached and there was no sign of Louis, she thought he probably stopped at a neighbour’s house for coffee, which wouldn’t have been unusual. The registered nurse laid down, only to wake up at 11 p.m. with an uneasy feeling. “I just left the kids and went.” When Gina saw the combine still running in the field, her instinct told her that something was terribly wrong. “I was sure something must have happened because if he had had a breakdown, he would have come home.” Her worst fears were realized when she saw her husband lying beneath the combine. By this time, Louis had been fighting for nearly four hours, the heel of his cowboy boot the only difference between life and death. Gina knew she had to turn off the tractor, but she wasn’t experienced with equipment and feared the worst. “I was panicking and I knew if I did the wrong thing, it would suck him

into the combine.” Louis explained to his wife how to shut off the fuel switch and the combine died. The trapped farmer doesn’t remember anything after that. He assumes he passed out from sheer exhaustion and mental anguish. “I ran to the neighbours and I was just screaming, ‘Louis is caught in the combine,’ ” recalled Gina, tears welling in her eyes at the thought. It took several neighbours an hour to remove the young farmer from his combine, after which time he was transported to the hospital. The physical wounds in his leg were quickly healed, but the nightmare of fighting for his life for four hours took its toll. He couldn’t keep food or water down for days and was hospitalized and put on intravenous for a week before he was able to go home. By the next harvest, Louis had a new self-propelled combine and his work habits and attitude had changed forever. “You learn to appreciate life a lot more because not many people that get caught like that have an opportunity to come out of it.” With Kevin now farming alongside his father and Kevin’s four-year-old son, Sebastian, on the scene, safety is always a priority, whether it’s dealing with power take-offs and moving equipment or working around electricity and augers. “When it comes to fixing safety things on your equipment, we take time to do it because an accident happens in a split second and it’s pretty hard to explain to a spouse that someone is gone because you didn’t take the time to repair something,” Louis said. “Nobody moves a piece of equipment on this farm without walking around it and checking it first.” Gina said she is vigilant about remaining in contact with Kevin and Louis whenever they are in the field, always tracking their whereabouts and the times when they are expected back at the house. “Now we have radios in every piece of equipment and we all have cell phones.” If someone misses their estimated arrival time by even 10 or 15 minutes, she jumps in her vehicle to check out why they’re late. Louis’s message to farmers is simple. “Slow down. Life is more precious than dollars.”

FARM POLICY | SURFACE RIGHTS

Alberta property rights issues continue to draw heat Four acts of law questioned | Surface rights group demands repeal of laws and input from parties affected LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

TABER, Alta. — The Action Surface Rights Association, an organization of southern Alberta landowners, wants the repeal of controversial provincial legislation affecting property rights. At a March 9 meeting, members passed a resolution to demand repeal of the provincial acts, formerly known as bills 19, 24, 36 and 50. They also demanded that the bills be reworked with input from landowners groups, farm groups and other directly affected parties. The resolution was made after members heard presentations on the legislation from Cardston-TaberWa r n e r M L A B roy c e Ja c o b s, Lethbridge East MLA Bridget Pastoor and Wildrose Alliance candidate Richard Jones. “I wish I could stand here and say the government is going to repeal these bills, but I can’t,” said Jacobs, a Progressive Conservative. “Personally I don’t think it would be a bad idea. I can go back and carry your wishes but I can’t stand here and tell you we are going to do it.” Jones, a Wildrose Alliance candidate in Calgary’s Acadia constituency, said his party would repeal all four acts, put property rights protection into the Alberta Bill of Rights and work toward their inclusion in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. He said Wildrose would “ensure no private property will be taken for public use without full, fair and timely compensation.” Pastoor, who is deputy leader of the Alberta Liberal party as well as its agriculture critic, said her party would not repeal the acts but would “go back to the drawing board” to revise them and retain any merits they contain. The legislative acts 19, 24, 36 and 50 are, respectively, the Land Assembly Project Area Act , which is not yet proclaimed into law, the Carbon Capture and Storage Statues Amendment Act, the Alberta Land Stewardship Act and the Electric Statutes Amendment Act. On March 1, the Alberta government introduced Bill 10, the Alberta Land Stewardship Amendment Act, to address concerns specific to that bill. It included 11 amendments. “You have the same property rights now as you did before,” Jacobs said in explaining the government’s position. He said Bill 36 is enabling legislation that will follow guidance provided in the province’s seven regional plans now being developed. The plans, each devised by regional committees, will address air and water quality thresholds plus environmental, economic and social use of land. Jacobs said once each committee puts forth its recommendations in their respective regional plans, the public will have the opportunity to read, examine and have input into potential amendments. “If enough people make the same comments, I’m confident the government will listen,” said Jacobs. When that process is complete, the access=subscriber section=news,none,none

regional plans will become the guidelines for provincial planning. He also emphasized that landowners directly and possibly adversely affected by development would be fairly compensated and have rights to appeal. Pastoor criticized the slow pace of regional planning and said it should be accelerated. “We certainly agree with the landuse framework,” she said. “We need to have a plan in this province.” However, she said the process must be fair and include sufficient public

RICHARD JONES WILDROSE ALLIANCE CANDIDATE

input so decisions aren’t made by cabinet, “24 men sitting in a back room. That is not where some of those decisions should be made.” Jones offered his analysis of the acts and said the Conservative government has launched an assault on

property rights. And he agreed the province needs regional planning, but said ALSA is too broad, potentially costly and still includes no right to compensation for landowners adversely affected by projects or development. Jones said water licences are not included in the amendments to ALSA, an important factor in irrigated southern Alberta. “A water licence can be rescinded under this legislation,” he said. “What happens when the government wants to scale back your licence?”

On Bill 50, Jones questioned the need for more electrical transmission lines in the province, saying neither need nor public good have been clearly established. He also pointed out potential pitfalls with Bill 24, the Carbon Capture and Storage Statues Amendment Act, which would regulate largescale carbon capture and storage in the province. Jones termed it “pernicious” for its lack of provision for compensation to landowners, its unlimited taxpayer liability and its basis on unproven technology.

about the regulations as legal arguments. The judges dismissed the appeal and told the companies they would also have to pay legal costs incurred by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency in defending the regulations that took effect in 2008. The compositional standards force cheese makers to use more Canadian milk rather than cheaper milk protein imports by setting a required fixed percentage of casein content derived from liquid milk. They were long promoted by Dairy Farmers of Canada. At the federal court and then at appeal, lawyers for the cheese makers argued the rules were unenforceable, beyond federal power and would impose millions of dollars of added costs on manufacturers while rewarding dairy farmers with higher incomes. The main argument to the appeal court judges came in statements from Kempton Matte, a Saputo employee and according to the judgment, “a lobbyist for the Canadian dairy processing industry.” The judges said the cheese makers’ evidence did not properly describe the real purpose of the regulations and how they were developed. “The Matte affidavit reflects the particular views and beliefs of an industry lobbyist.” Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz praised the court for upholding the power of Ottawa to set compositional standards for food. “Canadians expect cheese to be made of real milk and this decision will ensure it is.” Dairy Farmers of Canada also cheered the decision. “We had no doubt the federal government had the right, and a role, to regulate on cheese standards,” DFC assistant director for strategic communications Thérese Beaulieu said in a reaction to the ruling. She said there is no way to calculate whether the standards that require more milk use have been a financial boon for milk producers. “We can only observe that cheese consumption has increased in the last years,” she said. “More new cheeses have been developed, so while we won’t say it is because of the standards, the standards have certainly not hindered growth in the cheese industry.” Beaulieu said a key reason for DFC support of tougher compositional standards was that cheese would be more consistent and live up to consumer expectations. Therefore, the dairy farmer lobby was interested in the court’s reasoning that compositional standards will allow “producers, manufacturers and consumers to rely on a uniform quality standard for such products, thus increasing consumer confidence and ensuring fair and efficient market competition between industrial players while increasing available markets.” The judges said it means consumers can buy cheese made anywhere in the country and know that it meets a consistent standard.

in research, says a senior research official. Jerome Konecsni, director general of the National Research Council’s Plant Biotechnology Institute, told the House of Commons agriculture committee that improving Canadian wheat varieties is becoming an NRC focus. “Wheat, if you talk to farmers across Canada, is really under a lot of pressure,” he said. “It’s the weak link in the crop rotation.” He said the problem is that money has not been spent to create varieties

that are higher yielding and higher quality. Wheat was once Canada’s premiere agricultural sector, but Konecsni said the country has recorded the worst productivity gains over the past 50 years among the world’s top five producers. France has increased its productivity gains by an average of more than two percent per year while Canada is at 0.87 percent. “Australia is fourth and they were 0.92 percent, and that is in spite of 10 years of severe drought in Australia.” Konecsni said wheat has been nonprofitable in Canada for many years, which is affecting rotations. “Developing one crop and only having one crop in your rotation that is profitable is not a sustainable venture and we see what’s happening because canola’s the one crop where farmers have been making money,” he said. “What they’ve been doing is overgrowing canola and we’re starting to see some issues with disease in canola.” Konecsni said government and public institutions have not been investing much in traditional, nongenetically modified wheat research. “I think just public sector investment hasn’t been focused on wheat.” He said the NRC hopes to change that. “One area we are focusing on with our partners is to develop and improve profitability and yield and the quality of wheat varieties across Canada,” he said. “Our objective is to provide a variety of products so that farmers have a choice of many varieties that will all be profitable in their rotation.” The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, the country’s research funding body, c au s e d a s t i r re c e nt l y w h e n i t announced it was dropping agriculture as one of its priority focused funding areas. However, Konecsni said this has not affected the NRC because it receives Its government funding from the federal industry department and works on projects that are co-funded with farmer groups, food companies and provincial governments. Rather than de-emphasizing agriculture, he said the NRC is making it more of a focus. “In the fullness of time as our strategy unfolds, I think you will see that it will become an increased priority in the National Research Council.”

The most value and performance.

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

TAMPA, Fla. — The U.S. wheat industry is urging the federal government to keep its knife away from agriculture research when it does its budget cutting. Congress is contemplating a 15 percent reduction in spending for the remainder of 2011 on the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service and in the research grants it doles out to agricultural universities. President Barack Obama’s proposed 2012 budget calls for further cuts to those programs, although they are not as deep. As well, funding for some wheatspecific programs would be increased under his plan. Jane DeMarchi, director of government affairs for research and technology with the National Association of Wheat Growers, said the wheat industry needs research spending increases rather than cuts. Agriculture research funding has been flat for 20 years while expenses for salaries and new technology haverisen. Wheat is disproportionally dependent on public research for new varieties compared to crops such as corn and soybeans. DeMarchi said 78 percent of U.S. wheat acreage is planted with varieti e s d e v e l o p e d t h ro u g h p u b l i c research programs. It could be a big setback to the industry if Washington shaved $100 to $200 million off of ARS’s $1.2 billion budget. “We’re very reliant on public funding. We can’t afford to have more cuts,” said DeMarchi. Most of the leading seed technology companies have announced significant investments in wheat research since 2008. Companies are buying wheat breeding firms, working with universities and international wheat research centres and signing deals with one another in an effort to provide growers with better germplasm and seed technologies. “We’re really excited about the investment that’s going on in wheat. We think it’s really going to benefit growers,” said DeMarchi. However, it takes 11 years to breed a conventional wheat variety, so the industry will continue to rely heavily on public breeding for years to come. access=subscriber section=crops,news,none

RESEARCH | NATIVE PLANTS

Invasive plants: friend or foe? Researchers ponder | Do invasive species result in invasive animals or birds, or do they help restore biodiversity? BY MARGARET EVANS FREELANCE WRITER

Conventional thinking suggests that invasive plants introduced by humans are a negative force on the landscape and can be detrimental to native species and wildlife. For decades land managers, biologists and ecologists have urged their control or elimination. But what if that thinking wasn’t entirely accurate? That question is what spurred a team of scientists at Pennsylvania State University to study how invasive fruiting plants affect ecosystems and whether those effects, contrary to prevailing ideas, can sometimes be beneficial to an ecological community. “Among conservation biologists, ecologists, and managers, the default approach is to try to eliminate and root out non-native, invasive shrubs — anything that seems to change an ecosystem,” said Tomas Carlo, assistant professor of biology at Penn State. “The fundamental goal is to return a natural area to its original, pristine state with the native species occupying the dominant position in the community. But the problem is that most native communities already have been changed beyond recognition by humans and many native species are now rare.” Carlo and Jason Gleditsch, a graduate student in the department of biology, wanted to find out whether well-established, non-native fruiting plants have negative or positive effects on bird and fruiting-plant communities. “We wondered: Are we doing more harm than good when we eradicate plants that, despite being introduced recently, have formed positive relationships with native animals?” Carlo said. He and Gleditsch focused their study on the Happy Valley region of central Pennsylvania where honeysuckle, an invasive non-native fruiting plant, grows abundantly. “The biggest portion of the area is access=subscriber section=news,none,none

The areas where honeysuckle flourishes are usually disturbed and degraded habitats (where) native plants have already been displaced or have lower success allowing honeysuckle to colonize empty niches.” They assessed the abundance of bird species and all fruiting plants in the area, compared their data with data drawn from urban, agricultural and forested areas and concluded that the abundance of honeysuckle predicted the number and diversity of birds in the area and even beyond. “Honeysuckle is a diverse group of shrubs,” explained Gleditsch. “Most of the invasive honeysuckles were introduced in the late 1800s and early 1900s but were not really naturalized until the 1950s. There are plenty of other invasive shrubs in the area (but) honeysuckle is the most abundant based on fruit abundance followed by pr ivet (Ligustrum) species and Russian

olive (Elaeagnus umbellate). There are also invasive animals in Happy Valley (such as) European starling (Sturnus vulgaris) and house sparrow (Passer domesticus).” The honeysuckle and the bird communities had formed a relationship called mutualism, a term used to describe how two species interact and benefit mutually from each other’s existence. “The abundance of fruit-eating birds in the Happy Valley region is linked to the abundance of honeysuckle,” said Carlo. “Honeysuckle comprises more than half of all the fruits available in the landscape and it benefits birds by

providing them with a source of food in the fall. Meanwhile, the birds benefit honeysuckle by dispersing the plants’ seeds across a wider geographical area, helping the species to occupy more and more territory in areas already affected by human activities.” Carlo and Gleditsch also tested honeysuckle’s influence on other fruiting plants. They cultivated American nightshade in pots in a greenhouse. Nightshade is an herbaceous plant that grows mainly in southern latitudes and it is often found growing on and around honeysuckle and other shrubs. When the fruit was ripe, they placed the pots in both honeysuckle-dense areas and areas without honeysuckle but lush with native and other nonnative fruiting plants. In the honeysuckle-rich areas, the rate at which birds ate the nightshade fruit was 30 percent higher than in the areas without honeysuckle. Birds were abundant, which resulted in a wider dispersal of seeds, an process known as facilitation. “The newly introduced plants pig-

gybacked on the success of the honeysuckle, which is a common phenomenon because fruit-eating birds usually feed on a variety of fruit or whatever happens to be available to them,” Carlo said. “The same birds that ate the honeysuckle also ate the nightshade, dispersing the seeds of both plants.” According to the research, there are now three to four times more fruiteating birds such as robins and catbirds than there were just 30 years ago, especially in regions of high human presence. The conclusion was that, while some invasive, human-introduced plants are certainly problematic, others could help restore an ecological balance by providing food to native migratory birds. Invasive species could fill niches in degraded ecosystems and help restore native biodiversity in an inexpensive and self-organized way that requires little or no human intervention. The team’s research is published in the journal Diversity and Distributions and they expect that their findings could affect how resource managers respond to ecosystem maintenance. “Nature is in a constant state of flux, always shifting and re-adjusting as new relationships form between species,” observed Carlo. “Not all these relationships are bad just because they are novel or created by humans. We need to be more careful about shooting first and asking questions later …” Understandably, questions surface from the research. By eliminating an invasive species, could this action result in harm to the newly formed balance of the ecosystem? Are largescale efforts to remove non-native species a waste of time and taxpayers’ dollars? Gleditsch said the research has generated mixed reviews. “We have received e-mails (from people) who really want to learn more about the issue and others who do not agree with our conclusions,” he said. Many land managers have been in the latter category since much of their time and money has been put into eradicating honeysuckle from their forests, he added.

A Health Canada proposal to create a healthy food label that focuses on nutrients and calories could discriminate against healthful dairy products, says a dairy nutritionist. Nathalie Savoie, who works for Dairy Farmers of Canada, warned members of the House of Commons health committee that Canada should not go down the path of the United Kingdom, where food is graded solely on the basis of ingredients such as fat, sugar and salt. It is a “traffic light” system, in which food deemed healthy gets a green sticker, less healthy food receives a yellow sticker and unhealthy food a red sticker. “Foods get a green, yellow or red light for fat, saturated fat, sugar and salt without any consideration of the beneficial nutrients,” she told MPs, who are conducting a healthy living study. “Therefore, diet soft drinks and unsweetened Jell-O each get four green lights while nutritious foods such as two percent milk, salmon, almonds and olive oil could get red or yellow lights for fat, saturated fat or sugar.” Savoie said the problem with trying to create simple labels that consumers can understand is that many healthy aspects of some food will get lost in the translation. She said putting too much emphasis on calories in a food product without looking at other beneficial ingredients is an example of the problem. “If we consider only the calories, a serving of milk would show more calories than the same serving of soft drink and a small serving of almonds, more than three Oreo cookies,” she said. She used her time in front of the health committee to promote the health benefits of dairy products, such as bone growth, combating Type 2 diabetes and reducing the chance of colon cancer and cardiovascular disease. She said milk products contain 16 ingredients essential to human health. “Studies show that when the intake of milk products is not adequate, people’s diet usually falls short of several of these key ingredients. Unfortunately, most Canadians are not meeting their minimum recommended intake.” She urged MPs to recommend to Health Canada that the proposed new healthy foods chart not be made so simple as to be misleading. A nutrition fat table already exists, she said. “I think it can be improved, but at least it doesn’t risk telling people that diet soft drinks are healthy and milk is not.” access=subscriber section=news,none,none

CANADIAN WHEAT BOARD | FEDERAL GUARANTEE

Credit guarantee loss would be costly to CWB Higher cost of borrowing | Guarantee’s loss included in WTO text BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

NISKU, Alta. — Losing the Canadian Wheat Board’s government guarantee could cost each permit book holder $10,000 to $20,000, a wheat board official predicts. Chief financial officer Brita Chell said the cost of borrowing money would rise dramatically if World Trade Organization members reached an agreement on the Doha Round. The round’s current text would eliminate the guarantee by 2013. No one is sure how much the board’s credit rating would drop, but Chell said it would drop from its present AAA, the same rating as the federal government. In Canada, banks are rated AA and Archer Daniels Midland, Cargill and other highly rated agriculture organizations are A. Bunge is rated BBB and Viterra is BB+. Chell said the board estimates it would need $500 million to $1 billion if it lost the government guarantee, which would translate to $10,000 to $20,000 per permit book. “We’re not talking small potatoes,” Chell told farmers at a CWB Farmer Forum meeting March 9. Board director Jeff Nielsen said the previous Liberal government included the guarantee in the negotiations. “They threw it on the poker table for nothing and it got written into text,” he said. “Unfortunately for the financial guarantee, if the Doha round is completed, those financial guarantees are gone.” Chell said the cost of borrowing is about one percent and the board doesn’t know what rate it could get from banks and other lenders without capital assets. Under the CWB Act, the board is not allowed to hold capital that lenders like to have as collateral. Instead, the board is building a contingency fund before it totally loses the government guarantee. The balance is slightly less than $22 million and the government has set a $60 million cap on the fund. Chell said the board doesn’t know how much money it needs or where the money will come from. “We haven’t sat down and set what the target is. We are looking at that. We’re doing some risk modeling to say what would be an appropriate amount to have in that fund. A lot is

dependent on volume, price and price volatility.” Chell said the board estimates that the government guarantee for one 50,000 tonne panamax ship is $390,000.

Search for hybrid wheat kick started under AgriPro Crop breeding improvements | Syngenta has hired new staff dedicated to working on a hybrid wheat breeding program operated by AgriPro BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Paul Morano of Syngenta Seeds Inc. hopes to see hybrid wheat varieties on the market by the end of this decade. | SEAN PRATT PHOTO

TAMPA, Fla. — Syngenta is relying on its experience as owner of the world’s only hybrid barley program to develop a North American hybrid wheat program. Six months ago, the company

established a hybrid wheat breeding unit that will be operated by AgriPro, a wheat and barley breeding company acquired by Syngenta in 2004. Eight people have been hired to staff the new unit, and Syngenta is still filling remaining job openings. “We’ve had a hybrid barley on the ACCESS=SUBSCRIBER SECTION=CROPS,NONE,NONE

market for three years in Europe,” Paul Morano, U.S. national marketing manager for Syngenta Seeds Inc., said during an interview at Syngenta’s trade show booth at the 2011 Commodity Classic conference. The research team is in the beginning stages of using genetic markers to identify suitable male and female parents that will create hybrid wheat plants. It has only field tested potential parent lines. “We do not have a hybrid made yet,” said Morano. The wheat industry has lagged behind other major crops in the development of hybrids. Morano said that’s partly because wheat has a different gene structure than other crops and partly because it traditionally hasn’t been a highvalue crop. New crop breeding technology and rising prices are making wheat a more attractive investment for seed companies. Morano believes the first hybrids will be commercialized in eight to 10 years. “Unfortunately it takes a long time to get all this perfected,” he said. The hybrids are expected to boost yields by eight to 12 percent over today’s varieties, but yield stability is the ultimate goal. Syngenta is attempting to end the wild fluctuations that can occur with a farmer producing a 100 bushel per acre crop one year and a 10 bu. per acre crop the next. “We want to take the valleys out,” said Morano. “What we’re after is a more consistent product.” Consistent yields will be achieved by incorporating beneficial agronomic traits such as disease resistance and nitrogen and water use efficiency. They will be naturally occurring traits identified through genetic marker technology. Syngenta is leery of using genetic modification to introduce the traits because the company is not convinced the wheat industry has fully embraced the technology. Morano said Limagrain has done work on hybrid wheat in Europe and is establishing a program in the United States. He’s also heard through the grapevine that Monsanto is once again exploring a hybrid wheat project. He believes Syngenta’s familiarity with hybrid barley will give the company a head start. The company hopes to field test hybrid lines by 2015 and commercialize them by 2019 or 2020. He said it would be possible to get it done earlier, but Syngenta wants to avoid the mistakes that have been made in the past by rushing hybrids to market. The plan is to release new hybrid lines simultaneously in Canada and the U.S., but Canadian growers could be the first to benefit because the breeding process for spring wheat is shorter than winter wheat.

CCA | SUPPLY MANAGEMENT

BEE SECTOR | PESTS

Supply managed sectors must not impede others, says cattle group

Ont. imposes quarantine after beetle outbreak

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

The Canadian Cattlemen’s Association struck back five years ago after a parliamentary resolution committed the country to preserving supply management protections at all costs in trade negotiations. CCA delegates approved a 2006 resolution insisting that while supply managed farmers have the right to market product as they wish, their agenda should not be allowed to hurt other sectors dependent on trade. Last week, members of the association’s domestic agriculture policy committee voted to renew that resolution. The message was that defense of high tariff protections for importsensitive sectors such as dairy and poultry should not be allowed to undermine trade goals of export-oriented sectors that want to see reduced protectionism in other markets. Exporters argue that Canada’s rigid stance at World Trade Organization talks in defense of supply management protectionism undermines the country’s broader agenda of reducing protectionism in Canada’s export markets. “The CCA recognizes the choice of supply managed sectors of Canadian agriculture to market their product as they deem best,” the resolution said. “However, rigid measures to protect Canada’s supply management farmers should not impede the ability of another sector to maintain and grow its profitability.” Ontario producer John Gillespie, past chair of the Beef Information Centre, said it is a simple question of balance in trade position. “We don’t want a one-two trade policy, priority number one being that we will support supply management,” he said. “Number two, if we can support the other sectors, we will.” The 2005 parliamentary resolution was proposed by the Bloc Québécois and supported unanimously by MPs on the eve of a WTO meeting in Hong Kong where Canada was going to be under pressure to accept reductions in supply management tariffs and increases in minimum import levels. The resolution instructed Canadian negotiators to reject any deal that undermined supply management protections. Supply management defenders consider the resolution a continuing instruction to negotiators, even though WTO talks have stalled. Export sectors continue to resent it as an obstruction to progress at the WTO. In a recent speech to Dairy Farmers of Canada, Canadian chief trade negotiator Gilles Gauthier said defense of supply management protections is not a significant impediment to WTO progress. Much larger issues stand in the way of a deal between developed and developing countries, he said. The sensitive product debate is just one of a dozen disputes and far from the most contentious. access=subscriber section=livestock,news,none

Small hive beetle hits honey sector | Beetle larvae feed on pollen and honey and defecate in the honeycomb BY JEFFREY CARTER FREELANCE WRITER

DRESDEN, Ont. — Ontario’s honey industry is getting serious about the arrival of the small hive beetle. Beekeepers are concerned about repercussions to the interprovincial movement of bees if the right steps are not taken to deal with the pest. Some of Ontario’s producers move hives west to Manitoba and east to Quebec and Atlantic Canada. Others, like Tibor Szabo, market queen bees, hives and nucleus colonies across Canada. “A lot of beekeepers in the province

were in favour of eliminating all the bees in the control zone,” Szabo said. “One beetle can become many, many, many beetles. A single female can lay up to 2,000 eggs.” However, officials decided eradication would not provide a long-term solution to the problem. On March 7, a regional quarantine was placed on Essex County and neighbouring Chatham-Kent in the southwestern corner of the province. Szabo knows of one beekeeper who overwintered hives in Manitoba rather than bringing them back to his bee yards in the Niagara region and running the risk of being quarantined.

Provincial inspectors looked for the small hive beetle throughout Ontario last fall, especially in locations bordering the United States, where it is widespread. Tom Congdon’s family has been keeping bees in Essex County for decades but he now produces most of his honey 200 kilometres away in Wellington County. It’s been his practice to move as many as 800 hives between the two areas, taking advantage of the milder climate in Essex for overwintering. This year he left them in Wellington for fear of being caught up in a quarantine.

The decision saved his honey business, but Congdon is concerned about the tree fruit and small farmers in Essex County. Fruit grower Bill Medel said growers would have been in trouble without Congdon’s hives. “It would have really put us into a hard spot. We don’t feel there are enough wild bees out there to pollinate,” he said. “We need his bees for our apples, pears and plums.” Congdon and the Ontario agriculture ministry, came up with a solution. The ministry will buy as many as 300 hives and take them on a oneway trip to Essex. access=subscriber section=news,livestock,none

Gov’t to improve insurance for forages, pastures

Biosecurity rules for cattle sector to be voluntary: CCA

Growers rely on AgriRecovery | Farmers encouraged to buy insurance and not rely on ag programs STORIES BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Ottawa and the provinces plan to improve provincial forage and pasture insurance programs in an attempt to wean farmers off the expectation that a weather disaster will bring an AgriRecovery bailout. They want more farmers to invest in protecting themselves. Farmer participation is dismal in most of the provinces that offer forage or pasture insurance. According to provincial reports presented March 10 to the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association domestic

agriculture policy committee, it’s eight percent in Alberta, 15 percent in Saskatchewan and British Columbia and 14 percent or less in Manitoba. Manitoba producer participation has been cut in half in recent years, despite significant excess moisture problems in some areas. Danny Foster, director general of business risk management program development at Agriculture Canada, told the committee farmers can’t continue refusing to spend money for personal protection on the assumption that they will receive government help. Federal and provincial govern-

ments that co-fund insurance costs with producers plan to establish a working group this spring to consult with industry on how provincial insurance programs can be improved to attract more farmer customers. He asked for industry co-operation. “We can’t keep doing this AgriRecovery dance every time there is a flood or a drought,” said Foster. “When it is too dry or too wet, the question always seems to be, ‘when is AgriRecovery kicking in?’ We have to change that.” He said farmers blame low participation on premiums being too high or coverage being too low.

The goal of the federal-provincial working group is to find out from producers how programs can be improved, hopefully by 2012. He said he doesn’t expect forage insurance participation to reach the 70 percent or higher levels seen in grain and oilseed crop insurance. “But it’s time we put some effort into getting the participation rate up to 50 percent,” he said. “It would be a great number.” He said there was pressure on governments to use AgriRecovery to compensate producers who did not take out insurance when wet weather hit the Prince Edward Island potato crop. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

Standards to be developed by the end of 2011 On the Canadian farm landscape, biosecurity systems call up images of strict rules around who can enter the confined space of a chicken or hog barn and under what conditions. The cattle industry, far less confined and intense, soon will have its own biosecurity rules but they will be voluntary and implemented only at the speed industry wants. Unless, of course, some industry sectors including foreign markets or insurance companies decide they will deal only with cattle that have been in the biosecurity system and have the paperwork to prove it. That was the basic message to Canadian Cattlemen’s Association members at their annual general meeting last week in Ottawa as a consultant hired on contract by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to lead development of the biosecurity standard explained the project. The plan is to have a standard and a manual developed by the end of the year for cattle and by 2013 for other livestock species, Matt Taylor told the CCA animal health and meat inspection committee March 9. “It is all guidelines,” he said. “It is not regulatory.” It will include recommendations on minimizing commingling of animals with other herds or wildlife, trying to restrict unauthorized human contact with a herd, trying to make sure trucks carrying animals are clean and that ranch equipment being used for multiple purposes is not a source of contamination for animals through their feed. Taylor said a key requirement is that livestock producers keep records of their efforts to protect their animals from contamination or disease. There will be a manual on best practices for producers to study and a recommendation on signage to keep unauthorized visitors, including hunters, away from herds in pastures. But while he returned regularly to the message that there is no intention by government to make the system mandatory, he said it could become a market advantage for producers embracing the rules once they are developed. “It is unlikely to provide direct returns from the marketplace,” said Taylor. “But this could be an individual asset down the road. It is not a stretch of the imagination to think this could be a requirement of trade in the future or a requirement for some kinds of insurance.” The CCA has been co-operating and Taylor returned regularly to the theme that through on-farm consultations in all provinces but Saskatchewan and talks with the industry, proposals for voluntary biosecurity practices are being developed. Farm site visits in Sask a t c h e w a n h av e n o t y e t b e e n arranged, but he said it is more a question of circumstance than the province’s opposition. access=subscriber section=news,livestock,none

ith lamb prices hitting record highs and hog prices still floundering, dozens of farms across the province are building new flocks, including some who have converted empty hog barns into lambing sheds, said instructor Laurie Read. The market for lamb is good right now, with 55 kilogram animals fetching an average of $120, Read said while supervising the novice shearers on Rod and Jacquie Turuk’s farm near Leslieville. He said meat processors cannot get enough lambs, but producers who are entering the business or expanding have a tough time finding breeding ewes. “Right now, we could probably sell 10,000 ewes in Alberta overnight,” he said over the buzz of heavy-duty clippers and the roar of a propane heater. “(It is) very lucky to find anything to buy.” People have paid as much as $400 per head for ewes, although the average is closer to $200 or slightly higher. Jacquie Turuk expects her first lambs to start arriving at the end of March.

The ewes are sheared just before lambing, mainly so they will be better able to keep their lambs close and warm. Alberta Lamb Producers sponsored last year’s shearing school, which was also held at Turuk’s farm, but this year she and Read organized it themselves. “We started doing it because we couldn’t find a shearer. We found last year, we enjoyed it. “It does save money on shearing, but we lose our wool value, you know, because it’s their first time.” One of the participants was Rueben Tschetter, a teenager who w o rk s w i t h a f l o c k o f 7 0 0 o n a Hutterite colony north of Grande Prairie, Alta.

SARM CONVENTION | MALIGNANT CATARRHAL FEVER

Sask. sets up task force to deal with MCF spread Ward off disputes | The disease is common in sheep but fatal to bison, sparking calls for buffer zones between operations BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The Saskatchewan government is setting up a provincial task force to deal with malignant catarrhal fever, a potentially fatal disease that could have crippling consequences for the province’s sheep and bison industries. Provincial agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud said last week the new task force will focus on studying the disease, educating producers and minimizing disputes between the sheep and bison industries.

“We’re going to put a group together to find out what’s really going on here … what the problems really are and what we can do (to address them),” said Bjornerud. MCF is an infectious viral disease that is caused by the ovine herpes virus, which is common in most sheep. The virus does not cause clinical signs of disease in sheep but can be deadly when contracted by other types of ruminants. It is always fatal in bison. Concerns over MCF have been increasing in Saskatchewan during

the past few years. Markets for sheep and bison are strong and expansion is expected in both industries. However, little is known about MCF and many bison producers fear that their livelihoods could be affected if steps aren’t taken to control spread of the disease. In some areas, producers have suggested the establishment of standard buffer zones to keep bison and sheep operators separated. Others question the legality of regulations that restrict how a land owner can use his land.

Late last year, the owners of a bison ranch near Fairlight, Sask., asked the province’s Agricultural Operations Review Board to hear their complaint against a sheep producer who bought property about one kilometre from the bison ranch. The owners of the bison ranch, Rob Johnson, Rebecca Johnson and Ryan Clark, said allowing sheep to graze on the land could have a deadly impact on their herd of 2,200 bison. Bjornerud said the potential for disputes between sheep and bison owners needs to be addressed. The new task force will include repaccess=subscriber section=news,livestock,none

resentatives from the Saskatchewan Bison Association, the Saskatchewan Sheep Development Board, the provincial government and the Western College of Veterinary Medicine. The group will be chaired by Wendy Wilkins, a disease surveillance veterinarian with Saskatchewan Agriculture. During a presentation last week at the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities’ annual convention, Wilkins said there are still many unanswered questions surrounding MCF. With the exception of an epidemic believed to have occurred in a Saskatoon auction market in the early 2000s, Saskatchewan has recorded only a handful of bison deaths related to MCF. That said, anticipated expansion of the sheep and bison industries points to a need for greater co-operation and better management, Wilkins said. U.S. studies suggest the virus can be transmitted between species over distances as great a five kilometres. However, the risk of infection varies greatly, depending on environmental conditions and animal densities. The risk of infection is usually highest when bison and sheep share a common pasture or when bison are kept in close proximity to a feedlot that contains a significant number of lambs or sheep in close confinement. Wilkins said there are no definitive rules regarding buffer areas between sheep farms and bison ranches. Instead, it is likely that each situation will need to be assessed individually. Grazing the species in adjoining pastures is not a good idea.

Mark Silzer, a Saskatchewan bison producer and president of the Canadian Bison Association, said establishing buffer zones between sheep and bison is a contentious issue that will require careful consideration. He said education will be a key element of the task force’s work. “I think education is certainly the first key to having bison and sheep producers really understand the disease,” Silzer said. “Once they do, then they can start to make some assessment as to the level of risk and how do you best manage that.” Silzer said it is important that bison and sheep producers work together to address the problem. Producer returns from bison and sheep have never been higher. Failure to deal with the problem could have costly consequences for both industries, he said. “When you get these issues, they have a tendency to polarize neighbours and communities and you have to be careful with that.” The task force was expected to hold its inaugural meeting last week.

EARLY BIRD GETS THE GRASS

SASKATCHEWAN ASSOCIATION OF RURAL MUNICIPALITIES | PROPERTY TAX

Sask Party reduces ag property tax Education portion cut | The budget will set the mill rate for agriculture land at 3.91 BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Saskatchewan farmers will get another break on property taxes this year. Provincial finance minister Ken Krawetz announced that proposed cuts to the education portion of property taxes will reduce Saskatchewan landowners’ cumulative tax bill by $31.3 million dollars in 2011-12. The tax cuts, announced last week at the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities convention in Saskatoon, fulfills a pledge made by the Saskatchewan Party to reform property taxes and change how the provincial government funds public education. When the cuts are implemented in the province’s March 23 budget, the amount of education tax the province collects through property taxes will have decreased by about 80 percent, Krawetz said. The mill rate applied to all agricultural land in the province will be set at 3.91 mills, or $3.91 per $1,000 of assessment, he added. That’s down from 7.08 mills a few years ago. “That was a promise that we made four years ago,” said Krawetz. Saskatchewan will hold its next provincial election this November. The first phase of property tax cuts was implemented by the Brad Wall government two years ago. A second round of cuts was expected in 2010, but those plans were derailed when government finances began to tighten. “We were unable to keep our promise last year because revenues were not as good as they are this year,” Krawetz said. Last week’s announcement on property tax was the latest in a growing list of funding initiatives that will affect rural landowners and rural municipalities. In January, Wall announced that the province would implement a new municipal revenue sharing formula in its 2011-12 budget. Under that formula, one point of all provincial sales tax collected, an estimated $216.8 million, will be directed to municipal governments in the province in the 2011-12 budget year. Of that amount, rural municipalities and organized hamlets can expect to receive an estimated $62.9 million, an increase of roughly $14.3 million over the previous fiscal year.

KEN KRAWETZ SASKATCHEWAN FINANCE MINISTER

In its quarterly financial update released earlier this month, the province announced that third-quarter income was roughly $311 million higher than expected because of higher-than-expected taxes and resource revenues. For the fiscal year ending March 31,

government revenue is projected at $10.99 billion, about $1 billion higher than original projections. Krawetz said the added revenue has allowed the government to make good on its promises. A handful of other minor spending initiatives were also announced by the province during the SARM convention. They included a $500,000 fund for the creation of a provincial beaver control program to be administered by SARM and an additional $150,000 for rat control programs, bringing total provincial spending for rat control to $750,000 a year.

HOLLAND, Man. — An American trait development company is making progress on a glyphosate tolerant flax variety, says James Radtke, product development vice-president for Cibus Global. Radtke told producers attending the Manitoba Flax Growers Association’s annual general meeting in Holland March 3 that his company should be growing flax plants with herbicide tolerance by 2012. However, it will still be several years before it can commercialize the technology. Cibus Global announced a partnership with the Flax Council of Canada last April to develop the variety, which isn’t genetically modified. The San Diego based company, which employs 50 people, including 40 scientists, uses a patented Rapid Trait Development System (RTDS) to create lines of plants with desired traits. It is also developing herbicide tolerant canola and rice, as well as traits for other crops. It hasn’t commercialized any of its technology. “We have canola that will be in registration trials, so we’re closest in canola,” Radtke said. He said investors aren’t losing patience, despite the fact that Cibus

was founded a decade ago and commercialization remains a few years off. “We have very dedicated investors,” he said. “Basically a number of very wealthy people out of New York City.” The company is also aided by its unique structure, under which it agrees to share royalties with collaborators such as the flax council. “Our model is a bit unusual…. The collaborators fund the project and at the end we share royalties…. They would get a cut of the trait royalties that come back into the program.” He said Cibus scientists create desirable plant traits without introducing foreign genetic material in a process similar to spell checking on a word processing program. They make a synthetic fragment of DNA and insert it into a target location on the plant’s genetic code. “It (the synthetic gene) has to match up, base pair by base pair, with everything in that gene except for the one change that we want to make,” he said. The technology creates a mismatch in the DNA. Enzymes within cells recognize that something is wrong and take action to correct it. “ They say, aha, this has to be changed. And they make the change.”

ducer from Minto, Man., asked why Cibus and the flax council are focusing on glyphosate tolerance. With more weeds developing glyphosate resistance, why invest time and money on a herbicide that

may soon be ineffective? Radtke said once Cibus develops its technology for glyphosate, it can look at stacking non-genetically modified traits for other herbicides onto its glyphosate technology.

MANITOBA FLAX GROWERS | NEW VARIETY

Genomics opens door Seed size excites growers to flax advancements Understanding traits | Project will help improve yields STORIES BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

FILE PHOTO

HOLLAND, Man. — Breeders are reaping the rewards of two research projects that are expanding the genetic knowledge of flax, even though growers won’t see the benefits for a decade or more. Genome Canada’s Total Utilization Flax Genomics (TUFGEN) and the Natural Fibres for the Green Economy Network (NAFGEN) are generating the information and tools needed to improve seed and fibre yields and other plant qualities, Agriculture Canada flax breeder Scott Duguid told the Manitoba Flax Growers Association’s (MFGA) March 3 annual meeting in Holland. “The TUFGEN and NAFGEN projects will start impacting some of that breeding in the near future, maybe two or three years.” Gordon Rowland of the University of Saskatchewan and Sylvie Cloutier of Agriculture Canada in Winnipeg are leading the TUFGEN project, but scientists from India are also collaborating. Flax Canada 2015 is leading the NAFGEN project, a joint effort by five universities, industry and government agencies. Both projects were announced in 2009. Duguid said one of the most significant benefits of the initiatives is that breeders are beginning to understand the traits of flax varieties from

around the world. Breeders need that kind of knowledge to incorporate a specific trait into a new line of flax, such as seed colour, yield or disease resistance, he added. “I have information that I never had before, particularly in terms of characterizing these plants. It tells me (how) to find some of the variability that I need,” Duguid said. “ T h a t ’s e s s e n t i a l l y w h a t t h e genomics project and the NAFGEN project are doing…. We’re taking that book called flax, we’re opening it up and looking inside.” MFGA president Eric Fridfinnson, who grows flax near Arborg, Man., said this new knowledge should help flax catch up to other crops. “It is unfortunate that this work wasn’t done 10 years ago, but the second best time to do it is now,” he said. “To keep flax competitive, we need to get average yields up in at least the 30 bushel (per acre) range.” It typically takes 10 to 12 years to develop a new variety.

HOLL AND, Man. — Size isn’t everything, but the Prairie Grain Development Committee has recommended a new line of flax for variety registration that has a significantly bigger seed. Agriculture Canada flax breeder Scott Duguid, who developed the new line known as FP 2270, said the large seed size is a bonus, on top of its other positive traits. “I’m very excited about this variety,” Duguid said following his presentation at the Manitoba Flax Growers Association’s March 3 annual meeting in Holland. “It is a line that is outyielding Bethune, and it has this extra facet to it … a large seed size.” The Prairie Grain Development Committee’s oilseed committee vouched for Duguid’s work when it recommended FP 2270 at its annual meeting, held in Winnipeg in late February. The line produced an average yield of 38.8 bushels per acre in trials held at sites in the black and grey soil zone from 2008-10, where the growing season is longer. It yielded five to six percent more than CDC Bethune at those sites. Yields were even higher at sites across Western Canada, producing 41.7 bu. per acre, which was one percent higher than CDC Bethune. Duguid said most flax varieties have seeds that weigh 5.8 to six grams per 1,000 kernels, but FP 2270 weighs

6.8 grams per 1,000 kernels. The extra size makes the seed easier to handle but only provides a slight boost to yield, he added. “Yield is largely determined by how many seeds you have … in each of the bolls…. Seed weight is just a bonus.” Western Canadian trials have shown that FP 2270 has less oil content than CDC Bethune but has a higher content of linolenic acid. It is immune to rust and is moderately resistant to wilt. Its maturity is similar to Flanders. He said the line is particularly well suited to the black and grey soils of the eastern Prairies because it reaches maturity slightly later than Bethune. “It’s very well adapted to this particular zone.” The Prairie Grains Development Committee will now submit its recommendations to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s variety registration office.

FLAX | YIELDS

Flax potential not being reached: seed expert Tender loving care needed | Many growers are not reaping the yields achieved in flax trials BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

According to Manitoba’s seed guide, most flax varieties yielded close to 34 bushels per acre in provincial trials last year. However, flax insured by Manitoba Agricultural Services Corp. last year yielded an average of 19.5 bu. per acre. The substantial yield gap between trials and commercially grown flax is fairly constant from year to year and a consistent source of frustration for people who believe in the crop’s potential, such as Anastasia Kub-

inec, Manitoba Agriculture’s oilseed specialist. “With flax, if you gave it the same attention as you were giving canola and soybeans, you’d probably be more likely to get those 30 plus yields,” said Kubinec. She said there are two types of flax growers: those who grow flax regularly and know how to optimize yield and those who seed the crop in late spring as a last minute option before the crop insurance deadline. “They don’t treat it as a high value crop,” Kubinec said. “It’s the crop that everybody’s grandpa grew.” In 2009, Kubinec and other flax access=subscriber section=crops,news,none

experts tried to convince producers that flax deserves a little tender, loving care. There were no secrets in what she called the flax road show. The experts told farmers to follow the lead of producers who regularly grow flax and frequently get yields above 30 bu. per acre. The recipe is simple: seed early, control weeds and put on enough nitrogen. However, growers haven’t responded to the message. “It’s one of the challenges that we’re facing. There’s a lot more genetic potential in flax than what we producers are getting,” said Manitoba Flax Growers Association president Eric Fridfinnson.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF FLAX

Saskatchewan Flax Development Commission chair Lyle Simonson, who farms near Swift Current, said 2010 was a good year for flax in southwestern Saskatchewan. “In our area… we had lots of rain, (but) we were well above what our normal averages are.” Simonson said flax yields are typically 18 to 20 bu. per acre in the region. A new herbicide registered for use on flax should help growers control weed pressure and improve yields, he added. A Group 14 herbicide sold under the name Authority controls Group 2 resistant broadleaf weeds such as kochia, wild buckwheat, lamb’s quarters and redroot pigweed.

• Flax seed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, which help to build cell membranes • Flax seeds are a great source of vitamins and minerals. It is used for constipation, functional disorders of the colon resulting from laxative abuse, irritable bowel syndrome, and diverticulitis. • Flax is used as a poultry feed to produce omega eggs, which are high in omega-3 fatty acids and low in saturated fatty acids.

DISEASE | BLIGHT

Wet weather last year may herald late blight this year Alberta mounts awareness campaign | Late blight affects potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants and related weeds BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

The disease that caused the Irish potato famine poses a significant risk to Alberta’s potato crop this year. Late blight was found on backyard, market garden and commercial potato crops last year and will likely be a risk to this year’s tomato and potato crops, said Robert Spencer, Alberta Agriculture’s commercial horticulture specialist. “If conditions are ideal, it’s a definite risk,” said Spencer. Last year’s cool, wet and humid conditions were ideal for the fungal

disease. It went largely unchecked in residential gardens because of late identification and spread rapidly. Many gardeners had only a few days between when they noticed lesions on the plants and when the plants died. Late blight does not form an overwintering spore on the Prairies. Instead, the pathogen survives on living tissues carried from one season to another on infected seed potatoes, cull piles and volunteer potatoes. It also spreads during the growing season by spores produced on infected tissues and diseased crop debris.

Fungicides are available for commercial potato growers but are limited for backyard gardeners. Late blight affects potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants and related weeds. Spencer said horticultural experts don’t fully understand how widespread the disease is in Alberta because it showed up late last year. The spores are highly mobile and can be spread 80 kilometres by wind, especially in humid conditions. “This fungus likes moisture.” Spencer said the agriculture department has begun an awareness campaign and developed posters and information pamphlets to help iden-

tify the disease. It will also work with greenhouses, market gardens and large stores where seed potatoes that may harbour the disease are sold. Initial symptoms are typically noted on older leaves, appearing as dark, water-soaked lesions that move in from the tips and become brown and brittle within a couple days. Lesions may also develop on plant stems, potato tubers and tomato fruit. Infected tubers may have irregular, sunken lesions that are often found around the eyes. The rot penetrates deeply into the potato.

GRAIN COMMISSION | FEES

Full cost recovery strategy flying under farmers’ radar BY ADRIAN EWINS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The National Farmers Union is unhappy with proposed changes to the Canadian Grain Commission’s fees and licences. The federal agency is looking to revise its costs of fees and licences with an eye toward full cost recovery beginning in 2012. It now recovers 50 percent of its costs and has frozen its costs since the 1990s. The commission has been consulting with farmers, farm groups and grain industry stakeholders over the past few months. One group that hasn’t had much to say publicly is the NFU. Glenn Taut of Meota, Sask., who recently resigned from the NFU’s board of directors, said the commission is a crucially important asset for prairie farmers and the nation as a whole, and the government should be cautious about making changes. “The agency provides important quality guarantees in export markets and guarantees fair treatment to farmers. “They call it modernization, but this is a big step backwards,” said Tait. “It’s absolutely up to the federal government to ensure the commission is adequately funded for full operation.” He said the NFU is aware of how important this issue is to farmer’ pocketbooks, but unfortunately it has been a low profile issue for the average farmer. “There are many more pressing and more urgent problems in day-to-day farming and production. It’s been flying under the radar.” He said the system of the last 20 years has worked well for farmers and grain companies and should be left alone. Several regional NFU directors raised the issue in the NFU’s spring newsletter. Jan Stomp of Alberta said there seems to less eagerness to deregulate and cut commission services, and commissioners seem to listen to farmer input more than in the past. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

sion mill at the facility. The centre, known as the Canadian Feed Research Centre (CFRC), is owned by the University of Saskatchewan and is expected to conduct specialized feed and animal nutrition research aimed at developing and commercializing new feed technologies. A total of $13.3 million has now been invested in the centre by Ottawa, the province of Saskatchewan and the university. The centre, which includes a pilotscale research component and a commercial-scale processing plant, will be a state-of-the-art facility. Only four pilot lines in the world will have a similar research capabilities. Of those, none is associated with a large scale commercial mill. The commercial mill at the North Battleford facility is already operating. The university has a lease agreement with Cargill, allowing the company to use the commercial plant. The pilot-scale research component is slated to open later this year. Graham Scoles, associate dean at the university’s College of Agriculture, said anything that works well in the pilot scale plant can be transferred over to the commercial plant and produced on a much larger scale to make sure it really works. “It’s a world-class mill and will certainly have the capacity to develop the feed rations for our world-class genetics,” Scoles said. Added Ritz: “The more diversity you have in adding value to products at the farm gate and beyond certainly is good for farmers and processors …. This is another link in that chain.” Much of the feed research conducted at CFRC will involve canola and pulses. The facility will use those and other low value feedstocks and advanced feed processing methods to develop feeds that meet the unique dietary requirements of different types of livestock. The research will use techniques such as extrusion technology and vacuum coating of pellets to increase the nutritional value of the feed. Spinoffs from the higher value products will create more diversified animal feed with increased sales and exports of Saskatchewan produced animal feed. Tom Scott, associate professor and research chair in feed processing technology at the U od S, said it should take three to four months to install the equipment in the pilot line. He is eager to get started and has a long list of feed-related questions that the new facility will help answer. “Questions about how do you process ingredients to get the very uniform, very consistent animal performance. We don’t know that,” he said. “There’s been a lot of initial, small studies done in isolation but we don’t have a consistent formula. Scott said advanced technology such as near infrared spectrometry will allow researchers to examine the quality of raw feedstocks and determine what other nutrients must be added to the diet to produce consistent, high-quality feeds.

RESEARCH | BIOCHAR BENEFITS

Biochar tests move from lab to field Ontario soil trials | Researchers will study the impact on greenhouse gases, soil fertility and crop yields BY JEFFREY CARTER FREELANCE WRITER

DRESDEN, Ont. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A University of Waterloo researcher sees potential in applying biochar to Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s temperate soils. Field trials in Ontario are moving forward this year. Maren Oelbermann suspects that biochar can provide agronomic and environmental benefits but says more research is warranted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The environmental benefits are that less N fertilizers will have to be added to the soil, which will reduce the overall environmental footprint and reduce nitrous oxide emissions, a powerful greenhouse gas that has 296 times the global warming potential compared to carbon dioxide,â&#x20AC;? Oelbermann said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Similarly, the addition of biochar, a source of carbon, may help to sequester carbon in the soil over the long term.â&#x20AC;? Oelbermann has already conducted laboratory tests on heavy, medium-textured and sandy soil collected from three research stations in Ontario. Treatments included applying urea

ammonium nitrate (UAN) alone and with biochar. Corn was planted and the resulting dry shoot biomass from each treatment was weighed. Preliminary results show that biochar presoaked with UAN and added at a rate of 400 kilograms per acre increased the dry shoot biomass of corn by 64 percent over the control, which didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t receive biochar or UAN. Oelbermann said other questions need to be answered: â&#x20AC;˘ how much biochar is needed for the various soil types; â&#x20AC;˘ which form of biochar works best; â&#x20AC;˘ how does biochar interact with soil microbes; â&#x20AC;˘ what are the long-term impacts on greenhouse gases, soil fertility and crop productivity; â&#x20AC;˘ how does biochar react with manure as compared with inorganic fertilizers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Several studies are underway to investigate the ability of biochar to reduce nitrous oxide emissions.â&#x20AC;? She said reducing nitrogen rates by adding biochar would be good for the water supply and benefit farmers economically. However, it would likely take many access=subscriber section=news,none,none

Biochar researcher Maren Oelbermann has conducted long-term intercropping trials for corn and soybeans in Argentina. | PHOTO COURTESY OF MAREN OELBERMANN years before the addition of biochar results in significant soil organic matter gains, she added. Oelbermann first began her biochar research when she was involved with a study to evaluate flooding large tracts of boreal forest for hydroelectric development. Biochar tends to build up on the mineral soils of this environment because of natural fire cycles. Biochar Ontario president Lloyd Helferty also sees potential. He told the Growing the Margins conference in London March 1 that biochar could be used to boost the yields of purpose-grown energy crops such as switchgrass on marginal soil. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are many circumstances in

which it improves soils, particularly degraded soils.â&#x20AC;Ś You only need to apply it once or a few times over several years,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The long-term stability of most biochars is expected to be in the hundreds if not the thousands of years.â&#x20AC;? The buzz around biochar has grown over the past decade, but the existence of the terra preta soil of the Amazonian basin was identified in the late 19th century.

SOYBEANS | ACREAGE

Soybeans still viable option in Alberta: grower Research funding sought | Trials would provide growing information BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Weather dampened efforts to increase soybean acreage in southern Alberta last year, but that hasn’t discouraged one of the crop’s promoters. Patrick Fabian of Fabian Seed Farms in Tilley, Alta., seeded 240 of the estimated 5,600 acres of soybeans grown in Alberta last year. However, weather reduced his yields to 12 to 38 bushels per acre. Other growers in the Lethbridge, Brooks and Grassy Lake areas had similar results. Normal yields in southern Alberta are 40 to 50 bu., said Fabian. “It’s a year that I hope we never see again,” he said. “I’m glad we’re looking at it in the rearview mirror.” Soybeans like wet conditions, but they also require heat to thrive. Despite the setback, Fabian hopes Alberta growers will plant 10,000 acres of soybeans this year and cont inu es to b el iev e in t he c ro p’s potential. “They might be an option for growers who need to seed something that goes in a little later,” he said. Fabian planted soybeans on June 30 last year because of the weather delays and was surprised when they almost reached maturity. That tells

PATRICK FABIAN FABIAN SEED FARMS

him the crop has more versatility than potential growers may realize. At a soybean school held during Ag Expo in Lethbridge March 3, Fabian listed what he sees as the advantages of growing soybeans in Alberta’s irrigated south: • soybeans can be planted using conventional seeding equipment such as air seeders, hoe drills, disc drills and planters; • they can spread the workload for farmers growing other crops because they can be planted late and harvested late; • they can be left standing for awhile after reaching maturity because they resist shattering and weathering; • they will leave 30 to 50 pounds of nitrogen in the soil when double inoculated, which can reduce fertilizer costs for the next crop in a rotation; • they are traded daily and easily marketed; • seeding costs, which include ter-

minal use agreements, inoculants, seed treatment and Roundup, are less than $130 per acre; • Roundup Ready varieties allow easy weed control and good field cleanup for subsequent crops. Fabian said he and other Alberta growers are learning as they go. As well, crop insurance is difficult to obtain because soybeans are not widely grown in the region and thus lack statistics on average production and yield. Manjula Bandara, a special crop researcher at Alberta Agriculture’s research station in Brooks, has applied for grant funding for trials this year to get those statistics. Bandara said in an interview that if funding becomes available, he plans to research the irrigation needs of soybeans and their optimum row spacing and seeding rate. “Our biggest challenge we are facing now is to get a suitable variety that can mature in less than 115 days.” Marketing a crop from a non-traditional growing area can also be an issue. Corny Van Dasselaar of Country Commodities Ltd. in Lethbridge said increased production would improve the options. “We need some critical mass,” he told the soybean school. “It’s the chicken and egg scenario. access=subscriber section=crops,news,none

4.3 million tonnes OF SOYBEANS WERE HARVESTED IN CANADA IN 2010 We need to have a critical mass here as far as acres go so it becomes a dependable market.” Van Dasselaar said a lack of processing capacity in Alberta limits marketing efforts. “(But) whatever you grow, we’ve been able to find a home for it. We are working hard to get a contracting program for fall. We are encouraged by the acres that are committed already this year.” For export sales, Van Dasselaar said Alberta has a freight advantage over

Saskatchewan and Manitoba, which have significantly more soybean acres. Kevin Elmy, a seed farmer from Saltcoats, Sask., said about a dozen soybean varieties are suited to Alberta’s climate. Profitability depends on the same variables as other crops, he added. Last year set a record for soybean production in Canada. At 4.3 million tonnes, growers harvested 24 percent more soybeans than in 2009, according to the Canadian Soybean Council.

EQUIPMENT | VERTICAL TILLAGE

Vertical tillage dries saturated fields Zero-till compromise | Vertical tillage breaks up hardpan and eliminates standing water while limiting soil disturbance BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

BRANDON — Vertical tillage is not a drastic departure for producers who regularly perform some type of cultivation. However, it might be the compromise that 100 percent zero till producers are looking for as they try to get rid of excess water while still maintaining surface residue. Roger Burak, a diversification technician with Manitoba Agriculture, told a Manitoba Ag Days workshop that horizontal tools with shanks, shovels, plows or harrows create a compaction layer, or smear layer, just below the working tool. Roots and surface water find it difficult to penetrate this layer and water standing on the surface cannot percolate down into the soil profile. A further problem is that roots hit this layer and then spread out sideways. Shallow roots can’t access moisture and nutrients below the smear layer, causing lodging and poor yields. “If we can use vertical tillage tools to break through that smear or hardpan, we can let that excess surface water infiltrate deep into the soil,” said Burak, who also farms near Arborg, Man. “Vertical tillage tools are coulter type implements that slice vertically through the smear layer and break up the hardpan.” Breaking up the compaction layer also aerates the soil at the surface so it dries faster. Vertical tillage machines can run through standing water to break up the hardpan that’s holding water at the surface. In many cases, the standing water is gone the next day, say farmers with experience in the practice. “In wet, muddy conditions, vertical till machines are probably better than a disc or deep tiller,” Burak said. “The problem with those traditional implements is they plug with mud. They try to move a lot of soil, and when that soil is wet, you get big clumps you’ll have to deal with later. “With a vertical tillage machine, you’re not moving much soil at all. You’re creating cuts down through the smear and fluffing up the top couple of inches.” Burak said he wouldn’t run deeper than three or four inches, even if the field was extremely wet. He said vertical till is used most often on a stubble field, which should be fairly smooth. As a result, a single pass should be adequate to create a good seedbed. A second shallow pass in the spring may be needed if there are bad ruts from the combines. Burak lined up field demonstrations last year in Manitoba’s northern Interlake, which is notorious for wet

He also tried 40 acres on his own farm. “I deep tilled this field earlier to try dry it out, so there were lots of lumps. “One pass with the vertical tillage machine smashed them up and cut them down to particle size. In my view, we probably could have gone in and seeded right away. “If we wanted an absolutely perfect seedbed, one pass with harrows would have done the trick. But I think that if you run the vertical tillage machine shallow and fast, you shouldn’t need a second pass in most situations.” He said sales representatives from implement manufacturers agree that wavy discs provide more disturbance at the surface and better drying, but he hasn’t seen research to support this. Burak’s presentation struck home with at least one producer at the workshop. “It’s not true and pure zero-till anymore, but maybe it gets rid of enough of that water that I can get my seeding done without ripping up my fields,” ccess=subscriber heasaid.

ABOVE RIGHT: If fields are smooth and free of stones, a gang style mount provides uniform pressure and a flat seedbed. | ROGER BURAK PHOTOS

TILLAGE UNITS: WHAT TO LOOK FOR Although the dozen or more vertical tillage units on the market appear similar, Burak said producers should consider a number of factors: angle of the coulters determines the amount of soil disturbance

» » more waves per blade and deeper waves cause more soil disturbance » blade spacing affects residue incorporation » thicker blades are better for stony ground » weight balance front to rear affects soil penetration » gang coulters create equal pressure, better for smooth fields » independent coulters follow better in stony ground or rough terrain

EQUIPMENT | TILLAGE

Vertical till compromise for no-till farmers Front and rear aggressive blades | Cost per acre running equipment at 10 to 15 m.p.h. pencils out to approximately $13-$15 BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

BRANDON — Most people who have operated vertical tillage implements use the word “vibrate” to describe the action of the wavy coulters in the soil. Chris Claeys takes the description one step further. “I’d say the word ‘fractures’ is a better term for what happens,” said the farmer from Deloraine, Man. He said that the tips of the blades, when they roll into the soil at high speed and with deep waves, create a shock that goes straight down to fracture the shallow hardpan. Claeys bought a new 40-foot Sommers Super Coulter in 2010 with eight-wave notched blades front and rear. They were the most aggressive blades he could find. Claeys had previously tried vertical till implements on his farm and had decided that vertical till would become a standard part of his field operations, with or without the mud problem. His farm has been 100 percent zero till for a decade, which is approximately the length of time the Prairies have experienced wet weather. “Every spring we struggle with too much water to get on the land. We’re always a week or two late because of mud,” Claeys said. He thinks zero till can sometimes be too efficient at spreading residue uniformly across the land and sealing up the surface. As a result, no black soil is left to absorb sunlight to warm and dry the land. “We have neighbours who still cultivate the way they always have. Last year they were on some of their fields three weeks before us,” he said. “I’d never go back to black soil again, but I think this vertical tillage implement is a good compromise if you’re in zero till.

“It gives us just enough black soil. It allows evaporation upwards into the atmosphere, but it also lets water soak down, deeper into the soil. The water moves both ways. That’s a huge advantage.” Claeys has also had good results running his Sommers through standing water, which he said can be held on the surface by the smear layer. “We’ve got areas where the water doesn’t usually sit but it was sitting last fall. We went through with the vertical till implement and the water disappeared. “We had that happen halfway up the hillside. There are spots like that where the smear layer is definitely holding water. “If that’s the case, if it really is hardpan, you can definitely break it up and get rid of standing water with your vertical till implement.” He said an implement can’t do much if water is standing because the surface water table is too high. Claeys ran the coulters about two inches deep last fall, depending on field conditions. Most of those fields will be ready for seeding with just that single pass. He will also run a shallow pass this spring on fields that are still too wet. He’s left his canola stubble alone to ensure he doesn’t lose the residue. Those fields will also get a shallow pass in the spring. He said he was surprised at how well the implement handled flax straw last fall. “We went in right after the combine chopped and spread the flax straw. I told myself I’d try it until I had to stop to unwind straw four times. “Just four chances, then I’d quit and go home. Well, it never wrapped up once. Never wound up. So I kept going until I finished.” He’s been running at eight to 10 m.p.h., despite knowing that higher speeds are possible and might give access=subscriber section=crops,news,none

Claeys bought the machine with the idea that it should last him a long time and is hesitant to work it too hard. Claeys figures his cost per acre pencils out to $13 to $15 per acre. He said vertical tillage isn’t just for wet conditions. He thinks zero-till farmers can also gain something in more normal conditions. “All that organic matter is just laying there on the surface, and it’s gassing off into the atmosphere. Our crops are losing some of the nutritional value of that organic matter. “It would be nice to get it worked into the soil so we get the long-term benefit from it. And it’s good to get a little bit of soil movement in the top two inches. “So I think we’ll start doing vertical till on the whole farm from now on.”

CANOLA | BINS

Bin checks vital to retain canola quality Check early, check often | Calgary farmer learns the hard way that a crop in the bin isn’t the same as money in the bank BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Troy Prosofsky of the Canola Council of Canada has an expensive example to illustrate why farmers should check their canola bins after harvest. Prosofsky said a farmer north of Calgary harvested No. 1 canola last fall, at 10 to 11 percent moisture and

stored it in two 5,000-bushel bins. He contracted 10,000 bushels at $12.85 per bu., and looked forward to his $128,500 payment. But he didn’t check his bins until February. When he did, he found the canola was 30 percent heated. He made $7.18 per bushel on 5,000 bu. of the heated grain, for a total of

$35,900, and burned another 5,000 bu. because the crop was beyond salvage. Net loss from failure to check bins: $92,600. “Luckily he wasn’t forced to buy his way out of his contract,” Prosofsky told members of the Southern Applied Research Association. “If he’d had to buy his way out of his contract, he’d have been charged access=subscriber section=crops,none,none

$60,000. I don’t know what he did, if he got them a bottle of 150-year-old scotch or what it was, but they let him out of his contract. He was fortunate.” Canola research into new varieties is moving quickly, said Prosofsky, but research on storage is lagging behind. Increased oil content is a factor in how the canola stores, but little is known about it. “Nine or 10 years ago, we were getting 41 or 42 percent oil content. Now we’re hearing stuff reaching 50 percent, 48 percent oil content,” he said. “We are hearing more reports of stuff heating at 10 percent moisture, binned at 10 C, and it should have been fine but didn’t last the winter.” Prosofsky estimated about 10 percent of the annual canola crop ends up heating, so bin checks are vital. “Check your bins, guys. What may-

be was safe eight to 10 years ago maybe isn’t going to be as safe now, especially when you have higher green counts.” For marketing purposes, canola at less than 10 percent moisture is considered dry, at 10 to 12 percent it is deemed tough, and beyond that it is considered damp. Ideally, canola should be stored at eight percent moisture or less and at 15 C.

Spring seeding conditions are forecast to be cool, so attention to soil temperature will be needed when seeding canola. Troy Prosofsky of the Canola Council of Canada recommends the use of a soil thermometer. He told members of the Southern Applied Research Association March 3 to check soil temperature twice daily, at 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., for several days before seeding. When the two figures average 5 C, it’s safe to begin. “Lots of guys like to get in there as soon as that snow is gone and start seeding,” said Prosofsky. But emergence can be a problem if the soil is cold. “The problem with cooler temperatures is emergence, increased exposure to seedling diseases and it impairs the protein production in the leaves,” he said. However, Prosofsky acknowledged that conditions aren’t always ideal when bad weather and many acres are involved. “If you do have large acres and it looks like it’s going to be a small window that we have to climb through for seeding, we do have some recommendations.” A higher seeding rate is recommended if soil is below 5 C. As well, growers should slow down when seeding to ensure optimum placement in the first half-inch of soil. Prosofsky doesn’t recommend seeding deeper to connect seed with available moisture. “If you’re putting it in a little deeper, the beginning of the season is definitely not the time,” he said. “The soil temperatures are way too

cold. That seedling does not have enough power, enough energy to come out of 2.5 inches of soil, especially if it’s at two degrees.” After emergence, he encouraged growers to scout crops for cutworms, which he thinks may be a problem this year. He recommended checking areas of greener growth and parts of the field that warm quickly, such as high spots, south-facing slopes and sandy areas. Growers should check for worms in the top two inches of soil. “Also, look for congregating birds, ravens or seagulls. If you see them on a side hill, there’s something going on out there. They’re feeding on something, so go kick some dirt.” Prosofsky said he thinks cutworm damage is often misdiagnosed by growers as frost damage or poor emergence from deeper seeding. If cutworms are found, he advised growers to cut them open and examine the inside. “If there is green guck inside, then they are still feeding. Once they’re done feeding, you’ve probably missed the window for economical spraying.” access=subscriber section=news,none,none

PRODUCTION ning is another thing altogether. Spinning tires will bury a rubber tire tractor, no matter how many tires you have. A r ubber tired tractor is designed to operate with 10 percent slip. That means the tires always have a certain amount of spin. “Once you hit a really wet spot, they (tires) want to dig in right away. No way around that fact. They go down.” Papworth said dual radials running at a low pressure of 10 pounds per sq. inch are the best bet if farmers don’t have rubber tracks. If tires are at 20 p.s.i., he urges producers to take the time to lower the pressures before venturing into the field this spring. Turner agreed. “There’s no question, rubber tracks are better in mud. They give you a much larger surface to float on. Yes, I’ve seen rubber track tractors stuck, but typically they don’t dig down as deep.” Turner said the Case IH QuadTrak is the best example of better flotation created by rubber tracks. “You can get a QuadTrak stuck and just about pull it out with your pickup.

Once you hit a really wet spot, they (tires) want to dig in right away. No way around that fact. They go down. LAWRENCE PAPWORTH AG TECH CENTRE

“It can’t move on its own. It just floats on the surface and spins the tracks. It almost never sinks out of sight.” Tracks not only have more flotation, but they’re also designed to function with only five percent slippage. Radial tires are designed to function with 10 percent slippage. Turner said it will be all about mobility this spring. “Staying mobile by remaining on the surface is a good thing. If you stay mobile by cutting ruts two feet deep and throw mud out the back, that’s a bad thing. You may deal with the consequences for a long while.” He said farmers often have no

choice, especially in the fall when there’s a decent crop standing in mud. “That’s why we’re seeing more tracks on combines. Last year, there were a lot of fields that couldn’t be harvested without combine tracks. “The guys who went in with tires on their combines and trucks and carts left appalling ruts. Those ruts will haunt us for at least a year.” Although tracks have a definite mobility advantage in wet conditions, research says tires have the overall farming advantage. Turner said tracks are not bad. They’re just a little more costly in non-mud situations. “When we study power from the fuel tank to the ground, tires come out a little bit better than tracks. From output of the engine to the drawbar, tires always win. “But when we look at input to the track and follow back to the drawbar, tracks are more efficient than tires. “The other advantage to tracks is there’s nothing to set. It’s easy to screw up your rubber tires with wrong inflation, especially duals or triples.”

FERTILIZER | PRICES

Higher production will avoid 2008 fertilizer prices Prices will ‘remain elevated’ | Although prices are up over last year, they are unlikely to reach the August 2008 peak LONDON, U.K. (Reuters) — Soaring fertilizer prices are unlikely to reach 2008 highs because manufacturers are better prepared to respond to rising demand. “I would think we are not going to get anywhere near those sort of figures. I think that was a one-off,” said trader Calum Findlay of Gleadell Agriculture. Fertilizer producers were caught on the hop as demand surged in 2008, he added. “We’ve got manufacturing capacity that has come on stream since then and there is more coming on stream.” Prices for ammonium nitrate fertilizer have risen to about $300 per tonne, f.o.b. Black Sea, from $181 in June 2010 but remain well shy of a peak of $500 set in August 2008. Analysts said capacity has been added in response to the 2006-08 price boom. The lead time on new fertilizer projects is three to five years. For example, urea supply is expected to rise to 164.2 million tonnes in 2011, up 18 percent from 139.1 million in 2007, according to the International Fertilizer Industry Association. “Although fertilizer prices are expected to remain elevated compared to historical values, they are unlikely to revisit the peaks set two years ago,” CRU analyst Andrew Prince said. Severe drought in Russia and growing demand from biofuel producers, particularly in the United States, have led U.S. corn prices to more than double since June 2010. They peaked at $7.35 a bushel earlier this month, the highest price paid for the front month since the summer of 2008, when it reached a record high of $7.65 a bu. “Grain prices took off in June and the global nitrogen market followed,” said Ken Bowler, marketing manager with leading British fertilizer manufacturer GrowHow. High prices encourage farmers to use fertilizer to boost yields. They also increase the area on which crops are grown. U.S. corn plantings this spring are expected to cover the second-largest area since the Second World War Even so, analysts and fertilizer manufacturers see room for only limited fertilizer price gains this year. “The waning seasonal demand towards the middle of 2011 should bring some relief to the market tightness,” Prince said. Fertilizer trading is most active during the northern hemisphere winter, and demand typically declines in summer. “The prices we see in 2011 are relatively flat during the first half of the year, then start to rise again as we get to the end of 2011,” Bowler said. “Whether we see any significant rises is very debatable as we are at a high level at the moment.” Fertilizer prices have received support in the past month from turmoil in North Africa and the Middle East, a key producing region due to low energy costs. The production of fertilizers such as ammonium nitrate requires huge amounts of energy, and natural gas represents more than 70 percent of production costs, Bowler said. access=subscriber section=news,crops,markets

“Urea supplies from Egypt were suspended in the first week of February following the political unrest. Only a few sales of urea to traders were realized at prices that were the highest level since the peak of 2008,” Prince said. “By the end of February, supplies of urea from Egypt were back to pre-crisis levels, and prices also retreated.” Yara said Libyan government and rebel forces had engaged in fighting around its fertilizer factory in Brega, though without causing much physical damage.

“Unrest in Libya hasn’t supported urea prices yet, because Libya is a small exporter with exports of around 500,000 tonnes a year of urea,” Prince said. However, the importance of the Middle East and North Africa is set to increase over time because of their comparative advantage in energy costs. “All new urea manufacturing is built on top of cheap gas,” Findlay said, pointing to Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Egypt as key areas of expansion. European manufacturers also face the challenge of stricter environ-

mental standards. Bowler said GrowHow is investing $24 million at its Billingham plant in northeastern England on technology to control emissions of nitrous oxides. “I think at the moment we are in a position to be able to afford the investments (in new emissions technology),” Bowler said. “For tunately, we’ve seen the improvement in commodity prices. Without that money, we would never be able to meet those standards and, quite frankly, European plants would close.”

STELLARTM PERFORMANCE KEEPS

SASKATCHEWAN FARMER COMING BACK. It’s sustainable. Essential. A bright new light in broadleaf weed control. It’s all about control for Terry Tait. Tait farms approximately 1,500 acres near Meota, Saskatchewan. Upon a recommendation from his local retailer, he decided to try StellarTM herbicide for the ﬁrst time in 2009, and he was pleased with the results.

The combination of three powerful active ingredients and overlapping modes of action provides a highly-effective solution for farmers managing Group 2 herbicide resistance. It’s the new standard for annual broadleaf weed control in the black soil zone.

“I was quite happy with it. I like the control,” says Tait. “You don’t see regrowth with weeds like buckwheat and hawk’sbeard. There is also a wider window of application.”

Tait applied Stellar to 700 acres of wheat and barley in both 2009 and 2010. “The buckwheat was getting a little big and it really knocked it good,” says Tait. “The hawk’sbeard and buckwheat were my main problems. Some of the hawk’s-beard was pretty big and it hit them pretty hard.”

Stellar is designed for growers who need improved herbicide rotation that doesn’t compromise weed control performance. It’s a high performance product that controls a broad spectrum of weeds including Group 2 resistant cleavers, hemp-nettle, chickweed and kochia.

Another beneﬁt of Stellar is the fact that it has no crop rotation restrictions, allowing growers to choose any crop the following year. “I kind of jump around with my rotations; with Stellar

herbicide I don’t have to worry about what I sprayed with,” says Tait. He adds that other herbicides he has used previously killed the weeds, but they would always sprout back up. This wasn’t the case with Stellar. “It seemed to do a better job,” he says. Tait adds that the product also proved safe on his crop, noting that he sprayed one ﬁeld quite late and Stellar didn’t bother it at all. When asked if he plans to use it again, Tait doesn’t hesitate. “Yes,” he says. “I’ve seen the last few years that it works well, and I know I can count on it. For the dollar I know it’s going to do the job and I won’t have to go back and re-spray.” Visit www.dowagro.ca for more information on Stellar herbicide. Or, call your local retailer.

COMMODITY CLASSIC | SOYBEANS

Canola beats soybeans in EU biofuel Growers irked over delay of high oleic soybeans

Soybeans not allowed | Canola rated higher for greenhouse gas reduction STORIES BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

TAMPA, Fla. — Europe’s new biofuel requirements are creating a marketing opportunity for Canadian canola at the expense of U.S. soybeans. The European Union’s Renewable Energy Directive disqualifies soyb e a n s a s a n i n g re d i e n t i n E U biodiesel. The directive, which EU countries were to implement by Dec. 25, requires that biofuel feedstocks reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 35 percent compared to petroleum diesel. The EU has determined that soybeans have a 31 percent reduction. “Since virtually all of the soybean oil processed from U.S. soybeans in the EU is used in biodiesel production, this jeopardizes a $1 billion market for soybeans,” said Steve Wellman, first vice-president of the American Soybean Association. Canadian canola has been assigned the same value as European rapeseed, which is a 38 percent reduction in emissions. That means canola should be able to fill some of the soybean void. “It will be an opportunity for us but I can’t estimate how big,” said Canola Council of Canada president JoAnne Buth. Germany is the first EU country to implement the directive. Crushers in that country are importing U.S. soybeans for the meal but are forced to export the oil instead of turning it into biodiesel. Buth said Europe’s feed industry desperately needs soybean meal, which presents a similar conundrum for crushers in other European countries. “They might be exporting soy oil and then importing canola,” she said. However, the European directive is still causing challenges for Canadian canola. The EU requires a proof of sustainability certificate that ensures biofuel feedstock wasn’t produced on farms converted from high carbon density land such as rain forests. Buth said EU countries have proposed seven certification schemes, but none have been approved. Canada is deciding whether it wants to adopt one of the seven proposed schemes or devise one of its own. Wellman, who spoke to reporters during a news conference at the 2011 Commodity Classic conference in Tampa, said the U.S. soybean industry doesn’t have the same traceability system as the EU. The American Soybean Association is pushing for a bilateral agreement recognizing that difference and providing a sustainability certificate on an aggregate basis for the entire industry. The association was part of a U.S. delegation that travelled to Brussels in February to voice its concerns about the directive. It pointed out that the EU’s Joint Research Center used Brazilian production, processing and transportation data to determine the soybean number, ignoring the advantages of America’s “highly efficient agriculture industry.”

It provided the Europeans with an alternative study funded by the U.S. soybean checkoff showing greenhouse gas reductions of up to 52 percent for soybean biodiesel. Wellman said U.S. soybean growers don’t like being told by the Europeans how they should produce, process and transport their crops. The delegation told the Europeans that they want to continue servicing that market, but U.S. soybean growers will redirect shipments to the 36 other countries that buy their product if they continue to face trade barriers.

“While we appreciate their business and would like to continue to have their business, we do have other options,” said Wellman.

TAMPA, Fla. — Canadian omega 9 canola growers won’t face stiff competition from the mighty U.S. soybean industry for a couple more years. High oleic soybeans were supposed to be on the market by now. Pioneer Hi-Bred’s business manager for soybean output traits said in 2009 that the company planned to commercially introduce the product that spring with “aggressive ramp-up

plans” in 2010 and 2011. Flash forward to the 2011 Commodity Classic conference, where a company spokesperson said it is still in the pre-commercialization phase with “very small quantities” of a product that will compete with Dow AgroScience’s Nexera canola. “It’s a major piece of work for us to get this deregulated,” said Russ Sanders of DuPont, which owns Pioneer Hi-Bred. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

We have pretty high hopes that this could be a crop that’s in the tens of millions of acres. RUSS SANDERS DUPONT

Regulatory delays have been a major source of frustration for the company. It submitted its product for approval with the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 2006, and approval was granted last June. The genetically modified crop has been approved in the United States,

Mexico, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. The company is still awaiting regulatory consent in important export markets such as Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, China and the European Union. Sanders said the EU will likely be the last to approve Pioneer’s high

oleic soybeans. He expects the approval to come in early 2012, paving the way for widespread planting of the crop in 2013. Pioneer hopes 20 to 30 percent of the 80 million acres planted to soybeans in the U.S. and Canada will eventually be converted to its high

oleic varieties. “We have pretty high hopes that this could be a crop that’s in the tens of millions of acres,” he said. In the meantime, the U.S. soybean industry continues to lose market share in the food service industry to palm oil and high oleic canola oil, which are able to meet trans fat regulations. Sanders estimates the industry has lost the equivalent of seven million acres to those competing crops since trans fat labelling laws were adopted. He applauded the canola industry for developing a market for its omega 9 high oleic oil. “That was a real wake-up call for our industry. We had to think about a way to improve this oil to recapture some of that market share,” he said. It takes a long time to qualify an oil so that it can be part of a food company’s formulations. Pioneer has signed more than 25

testing agreements with major U.S. food companies for its Plenish oil but is holding off on making long-term commitments until all the regulatory work is complete. Pioneer’s Plenish oil will compete with Dow’s Nexera oil, but Sanders believes both products can take some of palm’s share of the food market because it has higher saturated fat levels than the high oleic products. Sanders acknowledged that canola has an advantage in its higher oil content, but high oleic soybeans will have a big acreage and transportation advantage. A major focus for the company will be to keep its costs down. One market Pioneer is targeting that Dow hasn’t is the industrial products market. Plenish oil can be used as a replacement for dielectric fluids in transformers, which is a huge market.

TAMPA, Fla. — American farmers are as frustrated with rail service as their Canadian counterparts. In 1980, more than 40 Class 1 railroads competed for shipper business in the United States. Today, after more than 50 mergers and consolidations, seven Class 1 railroads are left, three of which control more than 70 percent of the country’s grain movement. Farmers in the central U.S. have competition for their grain because that’s where the major railways converge. However, the far corners of the grain growing region often have only one railway. “That makes it a little tougher for our shippers to negotiate the good shipping rates,” said Eric Steiner, director of government affairs for farm policy with the National Association of Wheat Growers. The organization hopes Congress will pass two pieces of legislation this year that will help address its concerns about rail capacity and captivity. One bill would remove anti-trust exemptions for railways, ensuring that future attempts at consolidation would face extra review by the Surface Transportation Board to take into account the effect on consumers and shippers. The other would remove the Surface Transportation Board from the control of the U.S. Department of Transportation and set it up as a separate commission. The board oversees the shipping industry, ensuring that the rates the railways charge are what they need to maintain infrastructure, pay employees and generate a reasonable profit. It also resolves disputes between railways and shippers. NAWG believes the board would become a better advocate for shippers if it was its own entity. “We think the dispute resolution entity would be stronger if it were its own commission” said Steiner during an interview at the 2011 Commodity Classic conference. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

PORK | EXPORT MARKETS

Lack of deal called threat to exports Pork leaders urge action | Free trade with South Korea vital for export market BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

South Korea bought $100 million of Canadian pork last year. |

FILE PHOTO

Canada’s beleaguered hog industry says it will lose its third largest export market within years if Ottawa does not become more aggressive in negotiating a trade deal with South Korea. Pork exports to South Korea were worth $100 million last year, and industry officials predict that could increase to $500 million within a decade with appropriate access. However, in an open letter to prime minister Stephen Harper last week, industry leaders said that potential will be lost if Canada does not com-

mit to negotiating a trade deal with Korea quickly, as Canada’s competitors have. “There exists now a major window of opportunity for Canadian pork exports to Korea,” said the letter to Harper, signed by leaders of the Canadian Pork Council, Canadian Meat Council and Canada Pork International. “It is not a very long term opportunity and if the window slams shut, the problems besetting Canadian hog producers, pork processors and exporters will continue and will be seriously exacerbated.” It noted that the United States, Chile access=subscriber section=livestock,markets,news

and the European Union have deals to open up pork trade and reduce Korea’s high tariffs on their product. “Without free trade, we will be on the outside looking in as American, Chilean and European competitors take away our important market share,” said the letter. The industry groups called on Harper to instruct Canadian negotiators to get back to the table, settle issues that Korea is willing to settle, such as pork access, and keep working on the tougher issues. “Harvest everything possible as a matter of urgency and establish a new mechanism to resolve outstanding issues as quickly as possible,” they said. Pork council executive director Martin Rice told a Parliament Hill news conference March 8 that time is running out for the hog industry to stay competitive in the lucrative Korean market. “We are urging the prime minister that Canada move to complete a free trade agreement with Korea,” he said. “We can’t wait. There are no second chances, and catch up will be impossible once our competitors have used their advantage to replace our exports.” Negotiations with South Korea began in 2004 and ended in 2008 without agreement after 13 sessions. Talks have not been revived since. Several Canadian sectors, including automobile manufacturers and the beef industry, have insisted that Canada not sign a deal that does not include more Korean concessions. The beef industry, shut out of Korea since 2003 because of BSE, insists that access at least equal to what Americans enjoy must be part of the deal. The United States can ship meat from cattle younger than 30 months into Korea. The government and the cattle industry have challenged the Korean import ban under World Trade Organization rules. The letter to Harper mentioned the auto industry but avoided mention of beef industry opposition. “We appreciate that Canada is seeking a high quality agreement with no arbitrary deadline,” it said. “Perhaps the automotive industry has time to wait. We do not. Our third-biggest export market is at risk. We do not need more process; we need action.” However, hog industry leaders also recognized they were walking a fine line, criticizing a lack of trade negotiating action from a Conservative government whose aggressive trade negotiating agenda the industry has embraced. Jim Laws, president of the Canadian Meat Council that represents exporting packers, praised the government trade agenda and the trade promotion work of agriculture minister Gerry Ritz. However, he said the pork industry cannot wait longer because of reluctance in other sectors. “Others who are having problems in negotiating with Korea have had three years,” he told the news conference. “We don’t believe the government would want us to wait longer at the expense of exports it has taken so long to develop and to lose out on future opportunities.” Ritz responded with a statement stressing government free trade credentials.

The Bourgault 6700ST, 700 bushel Air Seeder, is more than just bigger, it’s better! The patented Integral Tank System ensures that the volume is utilized efficiently, regardless of the product combination. Quickly configure the 6700ST for more crop options! The 30 bu. 3rd compartment can be diverted into either compartment 2 or 4 and will hold the volume of a mini-bulk bag. A wagon-style steering allows the 6700ST to steer almost as tightly as the smaller 6550ST. The BATCO conveyer will quickly load or unload the seeder at 110 bu/min rates. A wireless remote control is utilized for conveyer positioning, with frame controls as backup. The tire configuration is designed to maintain soil compaction below 20 psi, even if the air seeder is full of fertilizer!

ONLY IN CANADA, EH?

NAKED OATS | PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Nutritious product touted as ideal for emergency aid Made from naked oats | Nourish hits shelves BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

It has a racy name, but naked oats is now being used in a sensible product designed to alleviate world hunger. Naked oats, or cavena nuda, is grown mainly in Manitoba by Wedge Farms, which markets it as “rice of the Prairies.” It has earned an investment from panel members on the CBC Television show Dragons’ Den. Fifteen months ago, Campbell’s Soup Canada officials asked what they were looking at when they saw a jar of naked oats sitting on a desk while visiting Michele Marcotte, science director at the Eastern Cereal and Oilseed Research Centre in Ottawa. “I said, ‘this is naked oats,’ ” Marcotte said. “‘This looks like rice, it cooks like rice and it has a higher nutritional value.’ ” The oats, registered in 2008, was used for horse and hog feed, but a human food application had not been developed. Campbell’s asked for 200 kilograms of the oats and Marcotte put it in touch with Wedge Farms. Product development began and Nourish was launched earlier this month. The nutrient-rich food, which also contains pulses and vegetables and can be eaten hot or cold, will be available at food banks and could be used for relief in disaster situations such as earthquakes. “This is major,” Marcotte said. “We rarely see this ourselves, working in a research centre. We have seen the farmers can profit, the processors can also profit, the feed people can profit, and even the consumer can profit because they can eat a more nutritious product.” Vern Burrows, research scientist emeritus at Agriculture Canada, spent years breeding the hulless oat variety that doesn’t have hairs on the grain. He named it AC Gehl after Dave Gehl, who runs the federal research farm at Indian Head, Sask. A flattered Gehl said Burrows didn’t have access to technical support for his breeding work because he had retired. Burrows sent Gehl a sample of his oats in the fall of 2000 and asked him to send it to New Zealand for increasing. Then he asked Gehl to grow some of the crop, which he did for three years in co-operation with growers. “I helped him when he had no other source,” Gehl said. “I think he appreciated that.” Bur rows’ w ork w ith oats was designed to make the crop more useful and eliminate some of the problems experienced by growers and processors. “Hulless oats were not the favourite crop for my staff because they’re very unpleasant to work with,” Gehl said. The little hairs on the groats cause irritated and itchy skin and respira-

This is major. We rarely see this ourselves, working in a research centre. We have seen the farmers can profit, the processors can also profit, the feed people can profit, and even the consumer can profit because they can eat a more nutritious product.” MICHELE MARCOTTE EASTERN CEREAL & OILSEED RESEARCH CENTRE

tory congestion. They were also a challenge to thresh. Fatuoids, which are mutants sometimes called false wild oats, cause shattering in standard oats. “That’s why our standard oats, we are really averse to having awns or fatuoids in them,” he said. But hulless oats are different. “He took an awn from a wild oat and he put it onto the hulless oat and it behaved quite differently than in a standard oat,” Gehl said. “They didn’t shatter and the awn made them very free threshing. This stuff threshes like wheat.” Previous varieties could not be threshed hard because the soft groat could break. Getting the hairs off the groat took years of breeding, but Gehl said Burrows is persistent. “He bucked the system. Everybody told him you’re kind of flogging a dead horse here because hulless oats didn’t have a very high reputation. I think he really made quite spectacular progress in eliminating the major problems with that crop.” Campbell’s thinks so, too. Marcotte said replacing rice in its products with naked oats makes sense because it has twice the protein, 10 times the fibre and five times the iron of white rice. It has high levels of beta glucan and can reduce cholesterol. Whether the company decides to use the oats in all its products remains to be seen. Price is the issue because production is still small. “The price of growing it and cleaning it and offering it for the food market is a little high at this point in time,” Marcotte said. Gehl agreed the crop could remain a niche market for a while. Standard millers are set up for hulled oats and there isn’t much incentive for Canadian mills to switch because they are located close to growing areas. Cream Hill Estates in Ontario has grown the oats for the celiac market for a few years, Quebec farmers plant it mainly for the horse market and Manitoba farmers grow it for swine rations and human consumption. The agronomics are a bit better in the East because Burrows used eastern varieties to develop AC Gehl. The crop tends not to be as drought tolerant as other oats. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

B.C. FRUIT | BUY LOCAL

B.C. fruit growers put faith in consumer Keep imports out | Fruit sector hopes the buy local movement will spark sales BY ROSS FREAKE FREELANCE WRITER

KELOWNA, B.C. — Consumers will play a pivotal role in a three-part strategy Okanagan fruit growers hope will save the industry. “The consumer consciousness is going to protect us,” said Oyama apple and cherry grower Jim Elliot, also president of the Okanagan Tree Fruit Co-operative and B.C. Tree Fruits, the companies that pack and market Okanagan fruit. “People, government and policy makers are starting to think more strategically about where our food comes from. Americans keep talking about their strategic supply of oil. We have to start talking bout strategic supply of food.” The consumer is one leg of the three-pronged approach the fruit industry is taking to keep farmers from being plowed under. Growers hoped returns from last year’s crop would help them climb out of the hole from the previous two years of poor crops, poor returns, poor weather, and large Washington state crops. “Almost every grower was shocked when we got that first payment (for the 2010 apple crop),” said BCFGA president Joe Sardinha. “Things hadn’t gotten any better. We were only half a cent higher than last year.” So the BCFGA, B.C. Tree Fruits and the packinghouse met with growers up and down the valley to let the packinghouse explain its plans. “We talked about what we needed to be,” Elliot said. “We need to be a packer and seller of four million boxes of fruit — three million apples

B.C. fruit growers say Washington imports are forcing some growers to walk away. | FILE PHOTO and one million cherries and peaches — and at a price level that would be attainable and sustainable.” The industry hopes to improve the product, reduce costs and get more from the marketplace, which is where the consumer comes in. “The market is a living and evolving thing and has a lot of consumers, a conscientious core, who want to buy B.C. and Canadian. We have great penetration in the marketplace, but we have to displace more imported fruit. “We are able to get a premium

because consumers in Western Canada demand that retailers supply local product.” The Okanagan Tree Fruit Company hopes to return $4 million a year to growers by cutting costs, selling surplus properties, and going from four to two plants. It also plans to upgrade its refrigeration equipment and some packing lines, make staffing changes and contract out its trucking operations. The packinghouse hopes to have its long-term plan implemented by 2014, but Sardinha is concerned the industry will have shrunk even more if growers don’t get short-term relief. “I don’t see the rebound being quick enough to deal with the now, which is why we want to work through the process with the provincial minister, but his suggestion was we form a working group involving the management levels (of the BCFGA, OTFA and BCTF) with senior people from his staff and work on what is the medium- to-long-term plan to get the apple industry back to a sustainable state.” Sardinha said each successive bad year compounds the problem, and financial stress among Okanagan fruit farmers has never been greater. “Some growers are in serious trouble. Anyone who has a mortgage on a farm is in that predicament. The buzz is that some growers are walking away from leases, which will reduce the crop size even more. “We have to find some solution and quickly. There are various things the government could do that don’t involve direct payment to growers, even if it’s just putting more money into AgriInvest.” access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

Work is also being done on breast and prostate cancer. Canadian ginseng exports reached 3.4 million kilograms in 2009 worth $95.3 million, up from $70.2 million in 2008. TAX CREDIT FOR FARMERS ON CHECK-OFF INVESTMENTS The 2010 scientific research and experimental development tax credit percentages for producers who contributed to the checkoffs administered by the Western Grains Research Foundation are 74 percent for wheat and 69 percent for barley. The barley checkoff on barley in Alberta is collected by the Alberta Barley Commission and will be subject to a different tax credit rate. The tax credit is earned at a rate of 20 percent for individuals and 35 percent for Canadian controlled private corporations. For example, a wheat producer who contributed $300 to the wheat checkoff in 2010 would calculate his eligible amount by taking 74 percent of the $300, which equals $222. If the producer files taxes as an individual, he would earn 20 percent of the $222 as a tax credit, or $44.40. Producers who file as a corporation would earn 35 percent of the $222 as a tax credit, or $77.70 For more information, visit www.westerngrains.com and use the Current Info tab to link to the Canadian Revenue Agency website where the appropriate forms can be obtained and options for tax credit use are outlined.

BULL SALE | PRICES

Regina bull sale sees strong prices Average price up $600 | Simmental event had fewer entries than past years BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Entries were down but prices were up at the 106th annual Regina Bull Sale March 13. A total of 117 bulls sold for an average $3,599, compared to 146 lots averaging $2,943 in 2010. Sales committee chair Scott Fettes said it’s about time breeders saw better prices. “We’re not stopping,” he said of the momentum building throughout the beef industry. The strong sale saw just a handful of bulls pass through without selling. Freyburn Angus of Oxbow, Sask., led the first bull into the ring. It was the Black Angus grand champion and saw the $9,000 price hold up as the highest. Lionel Doud of Radville, Sask., bought Freyburn Final Answer 11X, a January 2010 bull. “After he won grand champion, we were kind of hoping for some good things,” said Jason Frey, who operates Freyburn Angus with his brother and sister. The family has participated in the sale for years, and the siblings’ father, George Frey, had the high seller in 1998. The operation also had the high selling lot last year and the reserve grand champion this year, Freyburn Alliance 46X, which sold for $7,250. “It’s been a good sale to us.” Frey, who serves on the sale com-

mittee, said he thought changes made this year worked well. The committee took over managing the event from two private companies and moved it from the Auditorium at Evraz Place in Regina to Canada Centre Arena. “Everybody loved it,” said Fettes. “It’s just a better facility.” No supreme champion was awarded in the show, and some longtime breeders did not attend. “We lost a couple of big guys who brought big strings,” Fettes said. “They’ll be back.” The Simmental event suffered the most, with just six head selling this year. Fettes said the committee is considering a change from a halter show to a tie broke pen show. “If we go this pen deal, I think we’d see more coming back,” he said of sellers and buyers. Frey is less enthusiastic. “It’s one of the few sales around of that kind,” he said of the halter show. He agreed it’s becoming more difficult for bull sales of this type to continue, but said it’s a good vehicle for smaller producers who don’t have enough bulls for their own sale. Thirty-five sold in the Angus sale for an average of $3,600. Fettes’ DKF Red Angus operation showed the grand champion, Red DKF Rubicon 23X.

The reserve was Red NRA Crossover 22X, exhibited by Nielson Land and Cattle and Brendan and Jenna Erhardt of Craik, Sask. The sale averaged nearly $4,100. In the Simmental show, Springcreek Tutor 145X from MeadowAcres Farms at Lampman, Sask., was grand champion, and Double G Xaden 2X from Double G Simmentals at Stalwart, Sask., was the reserve. The reserve sold for $4,900 to Kelly Silzer of Moose Jaw, Sask. Double G Xander 15X also sold for $4,900 to Clem Sanden at Craik. The average was $3,583.

The grand champion Charolais, Charhead Mister Mel 1X from Dr. Melanie Roth at Charhead Ranch at Indian Head, Sask., topped that breed sale at $6,200, going to David Esmond at Eyebrow, Sask. The reserve was SKW Preston 48X from Creek’s Edge Land & Cattle at Yellow Creek, Sask. The sale averaged just more than $3,600.

CATTLE | TRACEABILITY

Cattle group questions benefits of national traceability BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

The Canadian cattle industry is scrambling to meet a politically imposed deadline for creating rules for a national traceability system. Much remains to be decided and large questions loom about how a national system can work. “S o m e p rov i n c e s d o n ’ t e v e n require premises ID,” said Pat Hayes, a producer from Val Marie, Sask., who co-chairs a committee on traceability organized by the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association and the Canadian Cattle Identification Agency. “How can you have a traceability system when you don’t even have a uniform premises ID system?” Although they are resigned to the task, industry leaders continue to

question whether the cost and hassle to the industry will produce much short-term result. “We’ve seen little benefit from traceability to date,” CCA executive director Dennis Laycraft said last week during a committee meeting at the association’s annual general meeting in Ottawa. He said a recent meeting between cattle sector leaders and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency produced the surprising news that the agency expects traceability rules to be in place by late 2011. “They said if we’re not ready with the regulations, we’d miss the boat.” The political commitment to a national traceability system for livestock was made by federal and provincial agriculture ministers in 2009 and while the CCA has been skeptical from the beginning about the

TRAVIS TOEWS CANADIAN CATTLEMEN’S ASSOCIATION

timetable, it says it will work to make it happen. Still, CCA president Travis Toews said he is not convinced the value of the bureaucracy and producer cost needed to make the system work is worth it, at least in the short term. The industry decision years ago to have animal ID tags has had a positive impact on international sales of Canadian cattle, he told the CCA animal health and meat inspection committee March 9.

“If we’d had a full traceability system, I’m not convinced we would have any more market access today,” he said. “Traceability is one of the concepts that has been oversold.” Still, the industry recognizes the long-term benefit and is struggling to find a way to meet the requirements. Debate at the committee meeting raised a variety of issues that must be worked out before the deadline. For example, at how many stages of the production process should an animal be scanned into the system: is it at farm exit, feedlot or auction entrance and then exit again? Each of those recordings of information about the history of the animal could slow down the process and cost money. Who would pay? When does animal movement have to be recorded: within a farm opera-

tion or only when it leaves the premises? Should cattle have two tags in case one is lost? Who pays? The CCA has suggested that the traceability system could be phased in by starting with animals going to feedlots with a minimum capacity of 1,000 head. Hayes said the cattle sector has a problem with any suggestion that producers should face more costs. Feedlot owners say that if they become the first point of data keeping, producers should pay some of the cost. Hayes said producers paid the full cost of ear tags that now are the core of the traceability system. “The tagging expense has been on our books for 10 years,” he said. “We feel we have done our share of the costs and if you want to take it further, show us the money.”

Steers, heifers in Regina ring Show winners | Black Angus wins top spot BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Pride lived up to her name at the Regina Spring Steer and Heifer Show. The 14-month-old heifer earned grand champion honours at the Regina show for Emily Okerstrom of Moose Jaw, Sask. “It’s funny that her name is Pride and she made me proud of her,” said Okerstrom, from the Old Wives 4-H Club. Pride is a Black Angus heifer, which emerged on top of that breed’s class and then beat out winners from Simmental, Hereford, Maine Anjou, Red Angus and commercial heifer classes. The reserve grand champion was also a Black Angus, exhibited by Erika Easton of Wawota, Sask. Okerstrom, 13, was attending the event for just the second time. “It feels good,” she said. “I had a gut feeling she was going to win.” Judge Lance Leachman of Maidstone, Sask., told her he liked the heifer’s body and bone structure. “She has the stuff that makes a good heifer,” said Okerstrom.

She and the other participants will now show their heifers and steers at other spring and summer shows and achievement days. Bl y t h e C l e m e n c e, a l s o 1 3 , o f Kipling, Sask., and the Kennedy 4-H Club won the steer grand championship with her Maine-Angus cross, Gary. Justin Hall of Craven, Sask., showed the reserve, a Maine-Anjou. Show chair Reed Andrew said 100 members from 25 Saskatchewan 4-H clubs entered 140 animals in the event, which is down from previous years. “There was some uncertainty about if it was happening or not,” he said, referring to the fact that a volunteer committee took over the show after Canadian Western Agribition did not extend a three-year management contract. Organizers had to reconnect with sponsors, but they came on board to keep costs in line. Weather was also a factor, and the entry deadline was earlier than usual. As well, costs were up because the new arrangements meant participants had to pay for power.

The recent discovery of Canada’s latest case of BSE should not complicate negotiations to get Canadian beef back into South Korea, says agriculture minister Gerry Ritz. In fact, it might even help. “I think it proves our case with Korea,” he told reporters March 10 after a speech to the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association annual general meeting. “It proves the efficacy of our testing, it proves that we are serious about getting to the bottom of these situations.” Ritz said there has been no negative reaction from the Korean government. “There aren’t red flags going up that they said could take place,” he said. “That’s been the hold-up in our negotiations, the overall planning and what could happen if there is another case. We’ve had this case now and there hasn’t been any detrimental back stepping from the government negotiators.” On the other hand, Korea has still not opened its border to Canadian beef, even though it allows beef from U.S. cattle younger than 30 months. Canada has launched a World

Trade Organization challenge to try to pry the border open. Meanwhile, CCA president Travis Toews said it is as much a test of the Koreans as it is a problem for Canada. “It’s hard to determine what impact the 18th case will have in negotiations with Korea,” Toews said. “I suppose it has the ability to delay what we’d like to see as a negotiated settlement before the WTO rules on our complaint, but also it has the ability to test the South Korean resolve.” He said the latest case, the first in a year, has not affected Canada’s standing as a controlled risk country as designated by the World Organization for Animal Health. “I think we are testing Korea’s sincerity in saying it plays by the rules,” he said. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency informed the industry last month that a 77-month-old Alberta dairy cow had BSE. No part of the carcass entered the human food or animal feed chain. Ritz said Canada’s extensive testing program increases the chances of finding new cases. “When you test as many animals as we do and you’re serious about getting to the bottom of this, I think it builds our case with Korea.” access=subscriber section=livestock,none,none

CALVING | COLOSTRUM

Colostral immunity helps get calves off to good start ANIMAL HEALTH

JOHN CAMPBELL, DVM, DVSC

ewborn calves are born with virtually no immunity of their own. The cow’s placenta does not allow antibodies to pass from the mother to the calf during pregnancy, which means the calf must receive its initial immunity from the antibody rich colostrum, or first milk of the cow. This initial immunity is essential because it provides protective antibodies against many of the diseases that affect newborn calves, such as calf scours, navel abscesses, arthritis and pneumonia. Even the vaccines we use to prevent scours in calves rely on this passive transfer of immunity in the colostrum. These vaccines are given to cows before calving to promote specific antibodies against bacteria and viruses that cause neonatal calf diarrhea. However, the calf must receive these antibodies through the cow’s colostrum to receive the benefit of this protection. The calf is able to absorb these antibodies at significant levels only during the first 12 hours of life. The gut’s closure to antibody absorption is a gradual process but begins to decline rapidly until complete closure occurs at about 24 hours of age. After the gut closes, the antibodies can still have local effect within the gut, but they can no longer be absorbed into the blood stream. Calves that do not receive adequate amounts of colostrum immediately after birth are at a much higher risk of becoming sick and are also more likely to die. Many cases of diarrhea, navel ill, blood poisoning and pneumonia in calves are a result of failing to receive an adequate level of colostral immunity. A recent study that Dr. Andy Acton conducted in Saskatchewan cowcalf herds found calves that did not receive optimal levels of colostral immunity were twice as likely to be access=subscriber section=livestock,none,none

treated and tended to weigh significantly less at weaning. Ideally, a calf needs at least two litres of colostrum within the first six hours of life to provide optimal levels of immunity, but the required volume depends on the concentrations of antibodies in the first milk of the cow. Dairy cows tend to produce a much greater volume of colostrum and their concentrations of antibodies may be diluted. Many dairy veterinarians routinely recommend that dairy calves be tubed with up to four litres of colostrum within the first six hours of life to optimize immunity. In beef calves, we would hope that the calf gets up quickly after birth and begins to suckle within the first few hours. Calves that have not nursed properly within the first two to three hours should be noted and observed more closely. In colder weather, calves will become hypothermic and may be less vigorous and less likely to suckle immediately. These calves should be tube fed colostrum and placed in a warming box. A calf can probably be given more time to suckle properly on a warm day, but it should be tube fed colostrum if it has not suckled by six to eight hours. The calves that are at the highest risk of failing to receive adequate colostral immunity: • had a difficult birth; • were abandoned or mismothered; • are hypothermic in cold weather.

A calf needs at least two litres of colostrum within the first six hours of life. | Pendulous udders and large teats can also make suckling difficult for even vigorous newborn calves. Colostrum can be collected by milking the cow or by using reconstituted freeze dried colostrum substitutes. Your veterinarian can recommend a good colostrum substitute because quality varies.

colostrum and need to be milked. The colostrum can be kept in the refrigerator for seven to 10 days to be used for other newborns. Extra colostrum can also be kept frozen for up to a year. Frozen colostrum should be gradually thawed in a warm water bath because high heat can destroy antibodies.

levels of colostral immunity. Preventing calving difficulties, chilled calves and mismothering are important components to ensure that calves are vigorous and more likely to suckle early and receive this essential protective immunity.

SHEEP | PRODUCTION

Alberta, Saskatchewan sheep flocks growing Manitoba numbers down | A refundable checkoff has reduced funds available for promotion and lobbying campaigns BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

Phil Kolodychuk doesn’t need Statistics Canada to tell him the Alberta sheep industry is looking up, but it’s a nice confirmation. Alberta’s flock size as of Jan. 1 was 132,700, up 4.5 percent from 127,000 in Januar y 2010, said a repor t released by Statistics Canada. The most dramatic change was a 36 percent increase in the size of the replacement lamb flock, which climbed to 12,100 lambs from 8,900 in the same one-year period. “A lot of producers saw the prices were pretty good and kept back a lot of their ewe lambs, while others saw opportunity in our industry,” said Kolodychuk, chair of Alberta Lamb Producers. The combination of high prices and strong demand for lamb has all livestock producers looking enviously at the sheep industry. Unlike the beef and hog industries, which rely on exports, the Canadian sheep industry supplies less than 50 percent of the demand for lamb within Canada. “There’s lots of room to grow and opportunity out there,” said Kolodychuk of Bluesky, Alta. Last year, Alberta lamb producers launched a campaign to promote the profitability of the industry to possi-

ble new entrants and encourage existing producers to expand their flocks to help meet the growing demand for lamb. In 2010, 53 sheep producers participated in the third year of the Alberta Lamb Traceability pilot project that uses radio frequency ear tagging systems to help producers manage information about their flocks. Kolodychuk said he’s hoping the new traceability technology will also help increase ewe numbers. Statistics Canada reported ewe numbers increased by almost four percent from 81,000 head in January 2010 to 84,200 head January 2011. “People are making better decisions now with the new technology,” he said. With strong prices, high demand and new tools to help producers increase flock size, Kolodychuk sees no reason why the provincial flock can’t increase five percent each year. “It’s a good goal to achieve.” It’s not just Alberta that has seen an increase in sheep numbers. Across Canada, total sheep and lambs on farms increased to 813,600 this January from 805,500 in January 2010. In Saskatchewan total sheep numbers increased 2.8 percent to 90,000 from 87,500. Gordon Schroeder, executive

The Government of Saskatchewan recently announced a $22 million program to help communities, rural municipalities, rural yard sites and country residences prepare for spring flooding.

The most notable increase is in the number of replacement lambs in the Saskatchewan flock. Producers increased the number of replacement ewes almost 10 percent from 10,400 to 11,500. “I think we will see an even bigger increase in July,” said Schroeder, when the next Statistics Canada numbers are released. It’s a different story in Manitoba where total sheep numbers dropped 10 percent from 59,000 in 2010 to 53,000 head this year. Lucien Lesage, chair of the Manitoba Sheep Association, said there are several factors influencing the continuing decline in the sheep flock. A refundable checkoff has limited the amount of money the volunteer board has to promote the sheep industry in the province and lobby government for increased help. The average flock size is 50 ewes, which limits producers’ ability to sell their sheep for top dollar. The closest federal slaughter plant is in Ontario. Predators are also a big problem. “It’s a snowball effect,” said Lesage of Notre Dame, Man., who hopes higher prices will encourage the

Feds give tracking $1.6 million BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

The Canadian Cattle Identification Agency has received $1.6 million from the federal government to continue researching electronic livestock tracking systems at auction markets. “Initially it will provide us with information on how best we can implement this traceability,” said CCIA director Pat Burrage. The first phase of research found that a traceability system can be implemented at a commercial level in auctions. The next round should help decide what form of technology works best and is most cost effective. The system should eventually trace an animal from its birthplace to the meat market by tracking movement using radio frequency identification systems. The information will be

held in a national database. Introducing the technology at auction markets can be costly but is necessary to ensure food safety, said Ken Perlich of Lethbridge, who participated in a similar Alberta research project. He said installing panel and wand readers at newer facilities like his was less challenging than retrofitting older auctions. Before the research started, no one was sure if the technology could work at all facilities. “The pilots allowed us to make some conjectures on what is actually happening. We wanted some science behind it,” said Perlich. Jim Abel of the Stettler Auction Market said retagging animals that arrived at his facility without tags created more work for his staff. “It can be done, but there are costs to it.” access=subscriber section=livestock,news,none

RENEWABLE ENERGY | BIOGAS

Changes needed if biogas to flourish in Ontario Proponents say solar and wind get more attention | Government urged to take steps to create better climate for biogas BY JEFFREY CARTER FREELANCE WRITER

LONDON, Ont. — The Ontario government has played a major role in deciding who wins and loses the renewable energy race. Lucrative pricing arrangements have turned the province into a wind-energy leader with turbines stretching on farmland along the shores of lakes Ontario, Erie and Huron. There have been so many applications for solar projects under the Ontario Power Authority’s Feed-In Tariff (FIT) program that approvals have been delayed. Meanwhile, the biogas sector languishes. Twenty-seven farm-based projects are operational or in the works, many of which had received support through an earlier government capital incentive program. Those incentives are now gone and pricing through the FIT program isn’t enough to get anyone else interested. “Within the Feed-In Tariff program, biogas needs to be identified as being unique,” said Dan Jones, president of the Agri-Energy Producers Association of Ontario. Jones wants the 20-year FIT contracts for biogas installations adjusted for inflation. System components, such as mixers, pumps and engines, wear out faster than components used for other renewable energy technologies, he said. Solar installations under the FIT program are eligible for as much as 80.2 cents per kilowatt hour, while on-farm biogas installations receive 18.5 or 19.5 cents, depending on their size. Benjamin Strehler of CH-Four Biogas Inc. thinks he has a solution. He wants the provincial agriculture ministry to eliminate its 25 percent limit for off-farm organic material, which would improve the economic viability of modestly scaled systems. “As long as this 25 percent rule stays, I don’t see any chance of this type of project moving forward,” he said. “There isn’t enough energy in the manure alone. We need the off-farm substrate to get the energy.” The low cost and high energy content of off-farm material such as food waste makes the payment rates under the FIT program make sense,

Strehler said. He isn’t sure of the reasoning behind the 25 percent rule but feels farmers shouldn’t be limited on the amount of off-farm material they can bring in, as long as there are no negative environmental impacts. “(Commercial) fertilizer is coming from off-farm already so why not use recycled organic fertilizer?” Manure helps stabilize anaerobic digestion, but as little as 10 to 20 percent is needed. Strehler used the example of a 100 kilowatt system for a 100 cow milking herd to illustrate the economics.

Ten tonnes of manure would be generated on a daily basis, which could be matched with 10 tonnes of good quality, off-farm organic waste. He said the gross maximum revenue for such a system would be $156,000 per year. The cost of operating the engine is 2.5 cents per kilowatt, leaving an annual net revenue of $135,000. Building costs couldn’t be higher than $945,000 if the project was to pay for itself in seven years. Strehler said enough food-processing waste is generated in Ontario to operate 100, 100-kilowatt systems.

More systems could be developed if purpose-grown crops were used as a feedstock, he added, but the FITT rate would need to be higher. He said attractive incentive programs are available in many U.S. jurisdictions. In some cases, farmers have contributed as little as 10 percent toward the capital costs. Biogas is made through the anaerobic digestion of organic material. The methane content is 60 percent in onfarm systems. The gas fuels generators to produce electricity. An alternative is to separate the methane from the carbon dioxide in

Questions? As long as this 25 percent rule stays, I don’t see any chance of this type of project moving forward. There isn’t enough energy in the manure alone. We need the off-farm substrate to get the energy. BENJAMIN STREHLER CH-FOUR BIOGAS INC.

Contributions from across the board and south of the equator resulted in a strong first quarter financial result for Viterra in the three months ended Jan. 13. The multinational grain company generated earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of $211 million, compared with $90 million in the same period last year. A strong contribution was made by the company’s operations in South Australia, which produced a record crop during the quarter and contributed $116 million to EBITDA, compared with $67 million last year. In North America, strong quarterly fertilizer pricing and sales and contributions from the company’s pasta and oat processing businesses acquired during the second half of 2009 paid off. “Our acquisition and integration efforts of the past 18 months delivered exceptional results,” said president and chief executive officer Mayo Schmidt. Net earnings of $99.6 million worked out to 27 cents per share, compared with last year’s $10.7 million, or three cents per share. “With tightening supply and demand fundamentals, rising commodity prices and food security issues that are now at the forefront for many nations, we can recognize the importance of agriculture in the global economy,” said Schmidt. Consolidated sales and other opera t i n g re v e n u e f o r t h e q u a r t e r increased by 38 percent to $2.5 billion, up from $1.8 billion a year ago. Gross profit and net revenue from services was $411.6 million, while cash flow from operations was $185.3 million and free cash flow was $143.8 million. The company expects receipts of major grains and oilseeds out of Western Canada to total 31 million

North America and Australia are expected to meet strong demand and continue to draw down inventory. Agri-product sales and returns should be strong this year. An expected increase in fertilizer sales reflects improved commodity prices and increased nutrient requirements. However seeded acreage in Western Canada could decline this year by as much as three to four million acres below the normal 60 million acres, and flooding remains a risk. The ag-processing business is being driven by strong demand for whole grain, nutritional food ingredients and products such as pasta and oats.

AG GROWTH INDUSTRIES | FINANCIAL RESULTS

Ag Growth Industries’ increase in sales offset by rising operating costs, says CEO BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Sales of grain handling equipment, bins and other farm-related products at Ag Growth Industries rose about four percent in 2010. Officials from the Winnipeg com-

pany said sales for the 12-months ending Dec. 31, 2010, were $247.5 million, up from $237 million in 2009. But operating costs also rose, resulting in net earnings of $36 million in 2010, down from $45 million a year earlier. Chief executive officer Gary Ander-

son said the relatively strong Canadian dollar hurt margins but he added that the company had consolidated its position in the markets and has a solid foundation for expansion. The sales figures did not include revenue from companies Ag Growth acquired in 2010, he added.

Sa le s were bu oyed by stro ng demand in the United States and developing markets overseas. International sales rose 66 percent compared to 2009, due largely to increased volumes in Khazkhstan and a contract to supply grain handling and conditioning equipment to

a port facility on the Black Sea. Canadian sales figures were down eight percent in 2010, due largely to poor growing conditions in Western Canada, caused by excess moisture.

GRAIN HANDLING | ACQUISITION

Terminal owners may sell to Richardson Upgrades planned | Shareholders get ‘top dollar’ BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Shareholders of North East Terminal (NET) at Wadena, Sask., will vote April 6 on Richardson International’s offer to buy the inland grain terminal. The $25 million offer, which also includes crop input facilities at Wadena, Kelvington, Foam Lake and Ponass Lake, is scheduled to close April 13. The proposed sale occurred after NET’s board received an unsolicited offer from another company last June, said general manager Garnet Ferguson. He said the board was advised, as part of the due diligence process, to identify any other companies that might be interested to ensure it received top dollar. Four companies were identified and Richardson’s offer was the best. Ferguson said the process resulted in an bid 40 percent above the original offer.

Jean-Marc Ruest, Richardson’s vice-president of corporate affairs, said the company is happy with the deal. “We put in what was an eminently fair offer, one that represents the value that we think the facility has and one that we think offers a premium to shareholders,” he said. “We certainly recognize that we’re paying top dollar.” Ferguson said the offer is 7 ½ times the original investment for shareholders, who have also received dividends and the competition for grain handling that was the original reason for construction. Richardson is buying NET’s assets and not its shares. There are 750 shareholders who hold nearly 21,000 shares. Cargill, which was the original partner when the terminal was built in 1991, holds 5,900 shares worth 22 percent. Ferguson declined to say which company made the original offer last summer. access=subscriber section=ag_finance,none,none

Shareholders will vote whether to accept $25 million from Richardson International for the North East Terminal in Wadena, Sask. | PHOTO COURTESTY OF NORTH EAST TERMINAL NET competes with Viterra in all four of its locations. Other competition includes an independent ag retailer at Invermay and Foam Lake, Pioneer in Foam Lake, and Parrish and Heimbecker in Quill Lake. Ruest said that was one of the reasons why the purchase was a good fit for Richardson. “It’s in a location where we don’t

have a strong current presence and it fits nicely to our canola plant in Yorkton.” Richardson intends to invest another $3 million to upgrade the facilities to improve safety and make them more efficient. Employees will be offered continued employment. Ferguson said the terminal enjoyed two of its best years ever during the

last four. It has a strong balance sheet and little debt. NET sits in one of the regions hardest hit by excess moisture last year. Ruest said investments of this size are not made with immediate return in mind. “It’s proven over the course of time to be a very good growing region and we expect it to be that,” he said.

TAX PREPARATION | MISTAKES

Four common tax errors that will cost you money FARM ACCOUNTS

ALLYN TASTAD

his will be my 24th tax season. Things have changed considerably since my early days, most specifically with the widespread use of computerized farm recordkeeping, but I continue to see common errors. For this reason, I thought it might be useful to identify the more common errors, in hopes that farmers might eliminate them in advance of filing their 2010 income tax return. Not too long ago, a new client was frustrated to discover that $255,000 in capital additions, involving a high clearance sprayer, truck and tractor, were not reported as such on his previous years’ income tax returns. The tax preparer who had missed these capital additions also sold farm insurance products on the side. My client couldn’t understand how his tax preparer, who did double duty as his insurance agent, could have erred so badly. “If he told me to insure them, then why wouldn’t he claim them at tax time?” the client asked. Review your capital cost allowance claim each year This will ensure that all capital additions and disposals are recorded. It is a simple check at tax time and insures that the full tax benefit is claimed in current and future years. access=subscriber section=ag_finance,none,none

Pay attention to the AgriInvest program Under this program, farmers can deposit up to 1.5 percent of their allowable net sales into their AgriInvest accounts and receive a matching contribution. For a farmer with $250,000 in commodity sales and no seed purchases, this translates into a $3,750 matching contribution. Farmers can withdraw the matching contribution, as well as their own contribution, anytime by contacting the local financial institution that holds the AgriInvest funds. I am surprised by the number of new clients who haven’t participated in the AgriInvest program, believing that the application is onerous and not worth their time. Nothing could be further from the truth. The AgriInvest application has been harmonized with the tax form and farmers are not required to provide additional information. I have a simple piece of advice for farmers who haven’t participated in AgriInvest and are filing their 2010 income taxes: take the free money. Kill two birds with one stone and

submit the Statement of Farming Activities on the harmonized form (T1163) rather than on the old standby form (T2042). Watch cash ticket deferrals Farmers are known for their aversion to income taxes, but for some their propensity to defer cash settlement tickets to future years is excessive. I re c a l l o n e f a r m e r w h o h a d deferred more than $200,000 of commodity sales, two years forward. He was frustrated in his circumstances because he was forced to borrow from his bank to buy his December 2010 inputs. This created a deduction against his high farm income that had been caused by his deferred cash tickets. He then agreed to repay his borrowings by securing his January 2012 deferred cash tickets. He said the income tax rules had turned him into a “borrowing junkie,” secretly hoping for a poor year so that he could get one foot off of his deferral treadmill. Similarly, I’ve had clients who rationalized irrational purchases

ATTENTION:

simply to avoid current year income taxes. These purchases could be a truck, combine, tractor or the best yet, a $25,000 Norwegian Fjord horse by a farmer who didn’t ride and had no identified business use for the horse. These farmers should hire accountants who can advise them on alternative business structures that would help them minimize their annual tax bill and allow them to expand their businesses and retire sooner. Poor records cause problems I recall a farmer from my early years who came to see me with two sets of computerized farm reports: one he did himself and the other his wife did. They both entered the same data, and he asked me which one I wanted because the net income was different by thousands of dollars. I told him I wanted the one that was the most correct, which in the end turned out to be his wife’s. On a more recent file, the owner of a company, who initially didn’t believe in the merits of bookkeeping, quickly came on side when it was discovered

that he was about to over-remit $62,000 in GST. Other problems include overstated taxes, understated taxes that lead to future reassessments and penalties, understated farm support payments and management misinformation. From a tax planning perspective, nothing kills momentum better than the realization that the farm accounting records cannot be relied upon. With tax season now upon us, farmers must take it upon themselves to be an advocate for their business. First, take some time to review your income tax return with your tax preparer or accountant. Discuss your existing farm structure and whether it still meets your current goals and objectives. Then, if your farm bookkeeping is not getting done, consider subcontracting it out or look harder within the farm’s labour pool for someone who can do the job. Avoiding these common errors will put money in your jeans.

MEAT PROGRAM | INTERPROVINCIAL TRADE

CATTLE | OPTIMISM

Meat trade plan too costly for some processors

Producers who survived see good times ahead

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Some of the 17 provincially registered packing plants that have been accepted for an experiment aimed at increasing interprovincial meat trade may not make the grade. Richard Arsenault, director of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s meat programs division, told the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association March 10 that the necessary investment may be too much for some of the plants. Money will have to be invested to bring them up to federal standards, and ongoing operating costs likely would be higher. Higher revenue through interpro-

vincial sales may not be enough to cover the increased debt and higher operation costs. “We don’t want a bunch of plants that are bankrupt as a result of this process,” Arsenault told the CCA domestic agriculture policy committee during the association’s annual general meeting in Ottawa. Plant operators will have to cover one-third of the costs and Ottawa and the provinces are willing to spend up to $5 million to cover the rest. “But $5 million spread over 17 plants is not a lot of money,” he said. Federal and provincial ministers have launched the pilot project to determine what would be required to get provincially registered plants

up to a level that would allow federal registration and the right to export from the province. When federal and provincial ministers meet again in July, they will receive a progress report on what plants might make the transition and what investments would be appropriate. Arsenault said the change might be minimal and inexpensive in some cases. In other cases, plants would have to develop a hazard analysis critical control point system and upgrade facilities. He said part of the pilot project is to determine if streamlining regulations would help smaller provincial plants comply with federal standards. access=subscriber section=news,livestock,none

meeting in Ottawa. “There is still caution out there, but prices are high and even with high feed costs and a $1.03 US dollar, people are making money. It is amazing.” Toews said the profitability is coming in part because of growing world demand for beef from a rising middle class in many developing countries and in part because of government trade efforts that are opening more foreign markets to Canadian beef. “The analysts I’ve been reading say we are looking at good prospects for a number of years,” he said. “One of the factors that also has been involved is poor weather in recent years that has turned a lot of grain into feed grain. That is not good for the grain sector but it has given cattle producers an advantage for now.” Toews also cautioned that conditions could change rapidly. A drought in the American corn belt could send corn and feed grain prices soaring, eating into cattle profitability. Still, recent years of losses have taken their toll on the industry. Toews said the national herd has declined 23 percent since 2005, when the herd was swollen with cattle held from the market because prices were so low. “My guess is the number of producers has gone down more than that,” he said. “They were tough years but for those who survived, these are good times.” Federal agriculture minister Gerry agreed with that assessment when Ritz spoke to the CCA meeting. “The future is bright,” he told the friendly audience. “We’re looking at buyers accepting the higher quality beef that we produce and paying premium prices for it.” Ritz announced more than $8 million for the cattle industry: • $5.3 million to upgrade information technology at the farm, feedlot and packing plant levels to allow exchange of data between the players; • $2.5 million for research into reducing production costs, increasing feed efficiency and decreasing losses from animal health problems; • $364,000 to help strengthen the on-farm food safety program. A day later, Ritz kept the money flowing by announcing a $130,000 grant to the Canadian Renderers Association to help the industry develop international markets that have been reluctant to buy products produced from rendered Canadian cattle since BSE. The association represents Canada’s three major rendering plants. Ritz was clearly was among friends when he spoke to the CCA meeting. “He is a farmer himself,” Toews said when introducing the minister. “You don’t have to visit long with him to see he understands all the details of agriculture in this country.” At the end of the speech, Ritz said he had time to take questions from the audience. There were none. “We’re happy,” someone shouted.

Costco grows into major beef retailer

GM alfalfa monitoring in place in U.S.

Feeding protocols | Producers deliver cattle that fit Costco’s grade specifications and Lakeside finishes them

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Many Canadians who still ask, “where’s the beef,” now have an answer. It’s at Costco. The giant retail chain accounts for 16.2 percent of all Canadian sales of fresh beef, and last year generated $3.9 billion in meat sales, said Claude Gravel, assistant general manager for fresh meats with Costco Wholesale Canada. Costco markets 56 percent of all AAA slaughter beef in Canada and is working with feedlots to increase the amount of AAA and prime beef available, he said during the March 10 Tiffin lecture at Lethbridge College. He said only one percent of slaughter beef in Canada grades as prime, or AAA, and his goal is to increase that to four percent through pre-slaughter identification of superior cattle, new management and feeding protocols and a camera system of grading to eliminate subjective judgments. “There will still be a grader but there will be no judgment call between high double (AA) and the low triple,” he said. Gravel is averse to paying more for branded meat, preferring instead to help raise overall standards and improve Costco’s ability to buy higher end beef. Costco has a program with Lakeside Feeders Inc. in Brooks, Alta., in which specific cattle are placed on feed from producers who have a record of delivering beef cattle that fit Costco’s grade requirements. “Lakeside is a partner,” Gravel said. “We’ve always been working well together. If they can suit my needs, that’s a winning situation for everybody.” In Canada, Costco processes beef in the store where it will be sold rather than delivering it from a centralized plant. Hamburger is ground fresh daily, on site, and no beef can be sold that is older than 30 days. Boneless pork has a 28-day expiry, and bone-in pork expires in 21 days. Roasts sit a maximum three days in

the meat case and are then cut into steaks or ground. The company has strict policies about grinder and slicer cleaning and food storage temperatures. As well, it is implementing a full meat traceability program that will allow it to access information about the producer, packer, packing date, shipping dates and when the meat was offered for sale in stores. The large volume of beef that Costco handles means the company doesn’t make up more than 25 percent of one supplier’s business. This protects suppliers should markets change and Costco decides to reduce or eliminate a product from its shelves. Janet Shanks, vice-president of fresh foods for Costco Wholesale Canada, said shopping frequency at Costco continues to increase. Sales are already up 11 percent in the first quarter of 2011 compared to 2010. Net income is up 17.4 percent. Bulk and volume are key drivers for

the company. Shanks said its store in south Calgary had nine days in 2010 in which it had more than $1 million in sales per day, which is down from $14 million days last year. She attributed the reduction to dilution of traffic because of store openings in Okotoks, Alta., and Rockyview, Alta. The stores may appear to have a wide selection, but Costco limits the number. It sells 4,000 products, compared to 125,000 in Walmart stores. It also puts fresh products at the back of stores so customers have to walk past other merchandise. “There’s a method to our madness. We want to entice you to go all t h ro u g h t h e w a re h o u s e,” s a i d Shanks. Costco works on high volume, operating efficiencies and cost containment at every level, she said. Net company profit comes entirely from memberships and renewals, she added.

FACTS ABOUT COSTCO: • 583 locations worldwide and 80 locations in Canada • $139 million in average sales per store per year • Average 1.7 million transactions every day • 33.3 million member households • 61.2 million cardholders • 88 percent membership renewal rate worldwide • 2010 net income $1.3 billion • Largest wine retailer in North America • Sold 51 million chickens in 2010 • Food courts sold 92 million hotdog and soda combos in 2010 • 151,000 employees worldwide; 21,000 in Canada • Average hourly employee wage $19.96

Monsanto and American seed dealers are taking precautions to ensure Roundup Ready alfalfa doesn’t wind up on fields north of the border, says a seed supplier from Montana. Dale Strouf, operations manager at Heartland Seed in Moccasin, Mont., said the industry has developed plans to monitor farmers who buy the genetically modified forage seed. “Once a producer has purchased a seed and planted it, we will be staying in touch with that producer. We will be taking GPS co-ordinates of the fields he planted. This will help account for how many pounds of seed did he buy and how many acres were planted,” Strouf said. “Say somebody bought a 1,000 lb. of seed but only put it on five acres. That’s a big red flag.” The U.S. Department of Agriculture deregulated GM alfalfa Jan. 27, which means American farmers can buy Roundup Ready alfalfa and plant it this year. Canadian forage seed producers worry that Canadian exports would be jeopardized if the technology seeped across the border. American farmers who buy GM alfalfa must sign a Monsanto technology stewardship agreement, which states the seed is restricted to use in the United States and is only for producing hay. They must also supply their seed dealer with GPS co-ordinates from one point in fields that they seed with Roundup Ready alfalfa. Trish Jordan of Monsanto Canada said the GPS requirements weren’t designed to keep GM alfalfa seed out of Canada. “(The co-ordinates) can help us if we get challenges from organic farmers, or we get calls from organic farmers, or if we get sued,” she said. American producers must also harvest their GM alfalfa crop before 10 percent flower bloom to minimize pollen flow. As well, they must provide their seed dealer with a valid Monsanto technology stewardship agreement, which makes it difficult for a Canadian farmer to buy GM alfalfa seed from an American dealer. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

YOUNG FARMERS | AGRICULTURE CANADA PROFILE

Call of the land: youth return to agriculture New optimism | An increasing number of young people see farming as a career BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Saskatchewan has more young farmers than any other province in Canada, according to an Agriculture Canada profile of the role of farmers between the ages of 18 and 39. The profile says that Saskatchewan leads in the number of farms operated by young farmers, 3,255, and ties with Quebec for the percentage of farms operated by young producers — 10 percent. British Columbia, with just four percent of farms operated by young producers, has the worst record. The number of young farmers is an important issue in Canada as governments and farm sector leaders struggle with the dilemma of how to attract the next generation of farmers into the industry. “Given the importance of Canada’s future capacity to produce agricultural products in a manner that ensures the future prosperity and competitiveness of the sector, it is important to understand the extent to which young farmer enterprises are flourishing,” the report concludes. “There is concern over whether there is a sufficient number of young farmers with the skills and knowledge required (to succeed.)” That concern is slightly lower in Saskatchewan than it is in other provinces. Saskatchewan agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud said March 4 that while the government is trying to build more young farmer-friendly policies, that would not explain the number. “I can’t put my finger on it but I can tell you it is a good thing to see,” he said. “It conforms to what I’ve been seeing, more young faces when I travel. We are seeing a generational change.” For many years, Saskatchewan young people were not interested in access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

returning to the farm, Bjornerud said. “I just think there is more optimism now with prices as they are and the future as it is.” In Quebec, the result could be related to the province’s aggressive program of aid for beginning farmers. It offers a “financial support program” to new farmers younger than 40 who own at least 20 percent of a farm and meet other criteria set out by the province. To qualify, young farmers must: • have relevant training • have at least one year of experience • consider agriculture their primary occupation • have a business plan approved by a lender;

• meet provincial environmental standards. A three-year college or university degree or diploma in agriculture can qualify for a $40,000 grant to invest in the farm. A two-year diploma can qualify for $30,000 and high school graduates can apply for $20,000. The Agriculture Canada profile offers some surprising findings. The 12,725 young farmers reported in 2008 represent just eight percent of Canadian farms. Another 12 percent report an operating structure that includes a young farmer working with an older operator. Young farmers tend to operate larger farms that are generally more profitable than the farm average. They also receive a higher propor-

tion of their income from the farm rather than from off-farm sources. They report higher debt and debt servicing charges than average and own proportionately less of the land they farm than average. The report says that is not unexpected. “They did have strikingly higher debt than other farms and this is not really surprising given that they are at an earlier stage in their life and are clearly paying for assets that they have more recently acquired such as new machinery and equipment, land, buildings, livestock and possibly quotas.” One surprise was that the hog sector has attracted the most new producers despite its years of financial struggles.

In 2008, producers younger than 40 operated 16 percent of hog farms although it was a higher percentage of a shrinking base. Poultry, eggs and dairy farms were proportionately the next most attractive sectors for young operators to enter. Cameron Short, executive director of policy analysis for Agriculture Canada, said the fact that all farm sectors are attracting new entrants is positive. “They are well distributed across farm types with slightly more operating hog, poultry and egg and dairy farms, partly dispensing the myth that barriers to entry in poultry and egg and dairy industries prevent young farmers from entering,” he said.

ON THE FARM | HERBS

Greenhouse work welcomed during cold of winter Satisfaction in seedlings | Cold days spent surrounded by unusual herbs and perennials BY DARLENE POLACHIC FREELANCE WRITER

ABERDEEN, Sask. — Gardening in a greenhouse has its advantages, particularly in winter when it’s frigid and white outside. “The greenhouse is a wonderful place to be when the sun is shining,” said Helga Halfinger, who has grown herbs for 20 years on the quartersection farm she and her husband, Ken, own near Aberdeen. “Even though it might be cold outside, you’re inside where it’s warm with all your little plants, where everything is green.” Her focus on herbs began normally enough. “The herb farming grew out of doing the usual garden things that farm ladies do,” she said. “I had a big veggie garden and one year I came across a herb catalogue. I thought it might be interesting to grow some herbs since they’re useful medicinally and in cooking. I got some seed, planted it and got way more than I could use. “I took the excess to the farmers’ market in Saskatoon and sold out very quickly. It was a little overwhelming. So many people wanted fresh herbs. This was 20 years ago. I was the first person to bring herbs to the farmers’ market.” She called her business Helga’s Herbs and began planting more varieties. Ken built her a lean-to greenhouse but soon had to construct a separate greenhouse building. A third, larger greenhouse now stands in the Halfingers’ yard. “We heat it only in spring and only during the night, with small electric heaters. The seedlings don’t move into the greenhouse until April,” she said. Most of Halfinger’s farmers’ market sales are herb bedding plants, which

means seeding begins in late January with perennials such as lavender, chili peppers, and rosemary, which is propagated from cuttings. She starts her seeds in the basement under eight-foot long, fluorescent light fixtures that include both a warm and cool bulb. “ It works very well, and I can get the fixture as close as I need to the planting trays.” Trays sometimes also have warming pads underneath. “I continue seeding the popular herb varieties until after I begin moving plants to the greenhouse,” she said. “These would be plants like basil and mint. People like to have smaller plants to take inside in the fall.” April is Halfinger’s busiest time on the farm. It’s when she transfers the sprouting trays to the greenhouse and begins transplanting the seedlings into individual pots. By the first week in May, she is taking her produce to the farmers’ market. Her stock includes 80 kinds of herbs, including 14 varieties of basil and seven types of mint. The most popular herbs are basil, parsley, rosemary, oregano, thyme, chili peppers and mint, which people buy mostly for culinary purposes or for their fragrance. “I grow some unusual herbs, like eucalyptus, exclusively for the fragrance. People from Australia just love it. When eucalyptus is grown indoors, it becomes a tree. You need a lot of space.” Halfinger grows other unusual plants as well: • anise hyssop, a perennial that smells and tastes like licorice and has purple flowers; • epazote, a Mexican-Spanish ingredient used in culinary dishes; • heartsease or Johnny-jump-ups, whose little blossoms can be canaccess=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

died or eaten as is; • milk thistle, a medicinal herb recognized for boosting liver function; • lemon bergamot, which produces pink-purple flowers and makes a herbal tea. “I also grow tobacco for my aboriginal customers. They are very appreciative and like to give it as a gift in their culture. I like the fact that they don’t have to buy commercial tobacco with all its chemical additives.” Halfinger doesn’t use pesticides. She isn’t certified organic, but uses only biological means to control pests when they appear. “I use little bugs so small you can’t see them to prevent thrips, white flies

and aphids, the three main pest infestations that can get into a greenhouse,” she said. “It works very well.” She also makes herbal products such as lavender sachets, heating bags with flax and lavender, herbal soaps and packages of dried culinary herbs. Halfinger supplies fresh herbs to restaurants but said she doesn’t have the manpower to supply grocery stores because their demand is consistent and year-round. The herb business is a full-time job from January to mid-July. “Ken helps me,” she said. “Occasionally at transplanting time I’ll hire someone, but there are often people from the market who like to come out and help just because they enjoy working with the herbs.” The Halfingers have allowed their quarter section of certified organic farmland to revert to its natural state. They used to grow alfalfa and still have some growing wild. “We had hemp one year as a demonstration project and in years past have committed plots of land to various agricultural studies. One year, we had a demonstration plot to study aster yellows.”

She is president of the Saskatchewan Herb and Spice Association, which is involved in a quality control program. “We will be doing workshops in onfarm food safety and traceability,” she said. “The idea is to know exactly where our food comes from. The modules will address everything from documenting seed collection to the medium the seed is grown in to applications to where the product is sold. This type of information is mandatory in some of our sales to Europe, and grocery stores are now wanting traceability of food.” She said she isn’t tiring of the work. “I love it. Working with plants is very satisfying and therapeutic. During the winter, I work as a nurse, but it’s a nice change to get back to the plants. I believe I have the best of both worlds.” Ken, who is now retired, helps Helga with planting or construction. “She’s the boss,” he said. “I just do what she tells me. “It’s enjoyable work, work we can do together. And the business allows us to live out here in the country where it’s nice and private.”

CELIAC DISEASE | JOINT PAIN

Gluten free diet may quell painful symptoms in joints HEALTH CLINIC

CLARE ROWSON, MD

I have swollen and painful knees when I work hard or do a lot of exercise in one day. I had gluten sensitivity or celiac disease diagnosed about four years ago but

I probably had it for most of my life. The main symptom is a skin rash called dermatitis herpetiformis. Is the joint pain related in any way or is it arthritis from getting older? I am 55 and male.

A recent case study in Rheumatology International described a 42-year-old woman who had chronic knee pain, dermatitis herpetiformis and celiac disease. After she started a gluten free diet, her symptoms improved dramatically. In your case, there could be an association between knee pain and gluten sensitivity.

Try keeping a diary of your dietary habits and see if the knee pain gets worse if you have a lapse in your gluten free diet. You may be eating or drinking something that contains hidden gluten. Avoid yeast products or autolysed yeast in packaged or canned foods. Brown caramelized colouring in drinks such as colas can also be a problem. Although wine is generally gluten free, some wines are made with brewers’ (malt) yeast rather than special grape yeasts. Also, some fancy wines may be aged in casks that are lined with a dusting of wheat flour. Other medical conditions are pos-

NEED FOR MAMMOGRAMS

Doctors generally recommend a mammogram every two years for women who are 50 to 69 years old. If you have a family history of breast cancer or have had a breast biopsy that showed abnormal cells, you may require mammograms at intervals based on your particular needs, even if you are outside the recommended age range. You should also get a mammogram immediately if you discover a lump in your breast.

Clare Rowson is a retired medical doctor in Belleville, Ont.

sible such as psoriasis and chronic inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis. Treatment often involves getting the underlying condition under control as much as possible but other medications such as anti-inflammatory drugs may be needed to control pain and inflammation. You may also have some other type of arthritis or joint disease so you should consult with a doctor.

I am 50 years old. Should I be getting a mammogram yearly?

ON-FARM VENTURE | HANDMADE CRAFTS

Young mothers put artistic talents to work Online and local sales | Craft business offers extra income without leaving home BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

HERBERT, Sask. — It was easy for Maria Enns and Cecelia Enns-Schulz to create their company name because New Leaf Handmade Goods is how they describe their business. “We like to think that the materials we use to create our products are turning over a new leaf,” Enns said. The sisters-in-law have been operating their handmade craft business from home for almost a year and plan to keep it that way. Both women hold teacher’s certificates and occasionally do substitute work, but they prefer not to make it a career. “We both had babies around the same time and we decided that we didn’t really want to work away from home very much,” Enns said. A company that makes new notebooks out of old textbooks inspired them to do the same. “Different kinds of covers we thought would be fun so we bought a binding machine last year. That was our big venture,” Enns said. The women, who describe themselves as artistically inclined, work on their own and meet monthly to discuss new ideas and things to change. They quickly learned how to divide the work. Enns-Schulz makes many of the items while Enns organizes, lists and photographs them for the online store. They find much of their paper, fabric and furniture at second hand stores and garage sales. They’ve recruited Enn’s grandfather, an avid garage saler, to keep his eyes open. “I get the best paper from him, old ledgers and newsprint. He comes home with all sorts of strange things. It’s great,” she said. “It’s important to us that what we access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

create doesn’t require a whole lot of newly manufactured parts. There’s personality, and a few stories attached to our materials.” Enns said she wouldn’t be doing this business if she and husband

Charles were not farming. They rent land in the area and have been grain farming for three years. “It would be nice to make money. Farming is doing all right now but I don’t know if it will work out every year to make enough income to just live here. I don’t want to work away from home so being able to have something here is important to me.” She said much of the inspiration for her creations is drawn from nature. Enns realizes that there are less expensive notebooks available. “They don’t have the same character and you don’t find interesting

things in them. On the back of each notebook we write the story of where we got the paper. If Grandpa found that ledger paper at a garage sale, then we write that in.” The partners hope to find local outlets to sell their creations but they have also set up web pages on a site called etsy.com. They launched a page in June to buy and sell handmade, vintage products, one in August for products made from old clothing and necklaces and another in October for photography, original art and cards. They also offer a blog, do it yourself projects, a newsletter and cus-

tomer feedback. Enns said 60 percent of sales are from online shoppers. Most are American but some are also from Australia, Austria and the United Kingdom. Thirty percent of sales are made at trade shows and the remainder from the Grasslands Gallery in Val Marie, Sask. Enns said they are trying to increase sales through more art gallery gift shops. Galleries take a 30 percent commission, but the web pages require a lot of work. Shipping costs and dealing with lost packages are headaches they can also do without.

MIXED MARTIAL ARTS | CANADA’S ACCEPTANCE

MMA still controversial but no longer illegal in Canada THE LAW

RICK DANYLIUK, QC

I love to watch mixed martial arts fighting on TV and would like nothing better than to see it live. But it seems I have to go to the United States for this. Why is this sport banned in Canada?

It is not banned throughout Canada anymore, although those developments are relatively recent.

Mixed martial arts ( MMA) creates controversy wherever it is held. Over the last few years it has gone from a fringe sport to one of the biggest and most lucrative events in North America. The pay-per-view revenue alone is staggering. For those who haven’t seen it, MMA is a full-contact fight where strikes with fists, elbows, knees and feet are allowed, as is grappling and techniques of submission. It is extremely violent. Critics argue that it is too bloody, promotes violence and injuries among youth and untrained individuals, and generally contributes to the downfall of modern society. Many argue that it is not a sport at all, calling it dog fighting with humans. Critics relied on Section 83 of the Criminal Code of Canada, stating

that MMA events were nothing more than illegally promoted prize fights. This was not a strong legal argument. Supporters argue, and have some statistics, that events such as hockey and football are just as violent and result in more serious injuries. Long-term studies aren’t available because MMA is a young sport. Last fall, the Canadian Medical Association requested a full ban on this sport within Canada. However, Ontario, which had initially banned MMA contests, recently started allowing them. This appears to be the result of public pressure, including a large Facebook petition campaign that started in Ontario and spread across Canada. In fairness, there are also petitions in Canada and the United States seeking national MMA bans. New York state has banned MMA

contests since 1997 and shows no sign of changing the law despite calls for its repeal, based in large part on the revenue these events generate. As a result, a large MMA event has been scheduled for Toronto April 30. Rogers Centre was originally set up to hold 42,000 fans, but all those seats sold. The plan was then reconfigured and the crowd will now be 55,000, and a sell-out appears to be a sure thing. Ticket sales will generate more than $11 million, and then there is payper-view, merchandising and other revenue. As a result, it’s easy to see why many in Canada wanted the ban lifted so that they can get a slice of that large cash pie. However, the dispute and debate continues. Many doctors suggest that the sport

is dangerous, using terms like barbaric. Others say these events won’t disappear if they are banned. Instead they will simply go underground and prosecutions will be rare and largely unsuccessful. As matters now stand, MMA events are not illegal, are not banned throughout Canada and will likely be held where markets can support large crowds. They will continue to create strong opinions on both sides of the argument, but will not likely be subject to a ban unless and until there is strong medical evidence showing that the harmful effects of this sport are worse than sports already accepted in Canada. access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

In studies done in the 1960s, psychologists took two identical bags, put the same amount of candy in each one and gave the bags to pairs of brothers and sisters. What they noticed was that one of the children was sure that he had been shortchanged. They were not to be convinced otherwise, no matter how hard the psychologists tried. The troublesome truth for you is that once you get caught in a fairness game with your children, you cannot do much to convince them that you are being as fair and reasonable as you can with them. Family therapists generally agree that children who frequently complain about fairness are not really trying to get more goods or services but are more likely trying to create tension in the home. All of it amounts to power struggles. The more you try to be fair with your children, the more likely it is that they will claim that you have mistreated them. To deal with fairness, you and your wife need to make note of each of your childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s individual strengths and talents. Your task is to help each child to develop his or her talents or skills as much as you can, regardless of what is happening to the other child. As you work with each child to help him build his skills, you might find yourself spending either more time or money with one than you are with the other. Hockey equipment is more expensive than dance dresses but over the long term, things have a tendency to balance out. What becomes important is not the amount of money or time you have spent but the extent to which each of your children has been given the appropriate opportunities to maximize their skills. What becomes exciting through all of this is watching your children as they mature into individual and independent adults. When that happens, you will know that you have successfully passed the test of parenthood. access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none
