Ottawa will miss CWB deadline: NDP Three to five years needed to implement bill, says opposition MP BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

The opposition MP poised to lead the parliamentary fight against government plans to end the Canadian Wheat Board monopoly on Aug. 1, 2012 says Ottawa will miss its selfimposed deadline. New Democrat MP Pat Martin, whose downtown Winnipeg riding includes the CWB head office, said in a Sept. 23 interview a unified opposition will be able to delay legislation to end the monopoly, making it impossible to get a bill through Parliament in time for Aug. 1 implementation. “I think (agriculture minister Gerry) Ritz has set an unrealistic deadline,” he said. “Three to five years might be a reasonable phase-in to such a revolutionary change to the way the prairie economy operates.” SEE OTTAWA WILL MISS DEADLINE, PAGE 2 »

MARKETING | LIVING NEAR THE BORDER

Farmer sees pros, cons, to both marketing systems Special report | More elevators means it’s easier to do business in the U.S. BOB GANSKOP

BY BRIAN CROSS

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

NORTHGATE, North Dakota — Bob Ganskop has a unique perspective on farming. The semi-retired grain grower from Northgate, North Dakota, has grown grain on both sides of the Canada-

U.S. border for more than 50 years. When early settlers arrived in the area, there was no border to speak of, at least none that neighbours recognized, said Ganskop. Producers moved machinery, grain, animals and themselves

across the border at will. “Even when I was a kid, there was no evidence of a border,” said Ganskop. Things have changed. Today, everyone crossing the border must pass through customs. Farmers with cross border operations must thoroughly clean equipment and be prepared for inspection, truckers must be licenced in both countries and farm helpers need work permits if they cross the line. While non board crops such as canola and peas can be transported and sold over the border with the proper paperwork, wheat and malt-

ing barley produced in Canada must be sold at Canadian delivery points through the Canadian Wheat Board or through a buy back arrangement with the board. While much has been made about the prices that American and Canadian wheat growers receive, Ganskop said he noticed little difference in prices north and south of the border during his career. To him, a bigger concern was delivery opportunities, particularly on the Canadian side. SEE PROS AND CONS TO SYSTEM, PAGE 2 »

CWB | FROM PAGE ONE

Ottawa will miss deadline “I think farmers should operate under the assumption that the status quo will prevail for 2012 because the minister cannot guarantee delivery of his promise.” Martin said if legislation, not yet introduced, cannot make it through Parliament by the end of the year, it is unlikely it will be approved at all parliamentary stages next year in time for the deadline. Parliament is sitting just nine more weeks before an extended Christmas break and the government is giving priority this autumn to crime legislation. “It’s not that difficult for the largest opposition in Canadian history to use procedural tactics to stall and delay that legislation,” he said. “With the passion and strong belief that we are on the side of the angels with the CWB, there will be a full court press pulling out all the stops and using every tool at our disposal to stop, delay and sabotage the intention of the minister. I don’t think he knows the fight he is going to get.” The result would be that farmers trying to make marketing plans for their 2012 crop will be “dangling in the lurch” this winter without a clear idea of what the marketplace will look like Aug. 1, 2012. “I think he (Ritz) is letting his emotions and ideology get in the way of logic.” Contacted about the opposition prediction that the CWB single desk will survive the Conservative-dictated execution date, Ritz’s office said he would not comment. “He will discuss these things if and when legislation is tabled in the House,” director of communications Meagan Murdoch said. “The government understands fully the complexity and timeframe associated with the transition to an open market

and are working diligently with the entire value chain to ensure as smooth a transition as possible.” On Sept. 23, Liberal MPs accused Ritz of ignoring farmer wishes. Agriculture critic Frank Valeriote and Winnipeg MP Kevin Lamoureux said the government should respect the 62 percent of wheat farmers who voted for a single desk in a CWBorganized plebiscite. Ritz insisted the plebiscite was just an expensive survey and the board should stop wasting time resisting and help its farm supporters by figuring out how it can operate without the monopoly. In the Commons, he said prairie farmers know how to market nonboard commodities such as canola, pulses and livestock. “We know they can do that with wheat as well,” said the minister. “They just need a chance to do that. We will offer that.” Meanwhile, Commons speaker Andrew Scheer continues to reserve judgment on an opposition motion moved by Liberal Wayne Easter that accuses the government of being in contempt of Parliament for soliciting bids on a contract to figure out what getting rid of the monopoly would cost taxpayers. Easter said since legislation is not yet before Parliament, the government is presuming Parliament will do its bidding. Last week, Saskatchewan MP and parliamentary secretary for the CWB David Anderson accused Easter of trying “to block planning efforts for bringing in a bill to give western grain farmers the marketing freedom our government has committed to giving them.” Martin said the Conservatives should get used to such delaying tactics.

“The years that I marketed up there … by the time you got all your payments and everything else, it (the price of wheat) came up pretty much the same,” he said. “My trouble up in Canada was that they took all the elevators out,” he added. “On the Canadian side, I used to go three miles to the closest elevator at Alcott, then I had to go six miles to Portal, then I had to go all the way to Oxbow, which was 15 miles, and now I’ve got to go clean up to Carnduff practically to sell my grain, which is nearly 60 miles.” In an effort to eliminate transportation costs, Ganskop eventually stopped growing wheat and barley on his Saskatchewan land.

SPECIAL REPORT | MARKETING NEAR THE BORDER

U.S. durum buyer looks forward to end of single desk Durum-only company is expanding | New Century thinks changes will be good for company and Canadian farmers BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Montana grain buyer Danny Moore watches from a dust-free room overlooking the weigh scale as his elevator assistant guides an automated probe deep into a trailer load of incoming wheat. Within seconds, the probe is removed, Moore has a sample in his hands and the truck moves off the scale toward one of two unloading pits at the 960,000 tonne terminal. Moore is manager at the New Century Ag terminal in Westby, Mont., a farmer-owned facility that deals exclusively in durum. Located just a few kilometres south of the Canada-U.S. border, Moore has watched marketing changes north of the line, where the federal government is preparing to end the Canadian Wheat Board’s single-desk marketing structure next year. According to Moore, the elimination of single-desk marketing will give Canadian dur um far mers access to a new, efficient delivery point that offers attractive contracting opportunities and competitive cash prices. New Century Ag also operates elevators at a handful of other locations in northwestern North Dakota and is building two new facilities in Crosby and Noonan, N.D., both within an hour’s drive of Westby. The Westby cleaning mill can handle up to 12,000 bushels an hour and terminal staff can unload between 200 and 250 semi-trailer loads of grain per day. “We’ve already loaded 91 rail cars today. We started at 7:30 a.m. and we were done at 3:30 this afternoon,” Moore said. To maintain grain volumes at the new facility, Moore and his team compete for locally produced durum. Efficiency and good client relations have helped New Century to expand its reach and make new investments in nearby communities.

New Century Ag owns a number of country elevators within a short drive of the Canadian border. SEE THE REST OF THE SPECIAL REPORT ON PAGES 72-73. | BRIAN CROSS PHOTOS New Century will benefit from a liberalized Canadian grain market and so will Canadian farmers located close to the U.S. border, he said. Now, there is no restriction on the movement of non-board crops across the international border.

Field peas, chickpeas, lentils, canola and mustard can be moved to market in either direction with the right paperwork. Moore said rail service is a critical consideration for grain companies operating in the U.S.

Like the prairie rail system in Western Canada, the American system in North Dakota and Montana has undergone significant changes in recent years. Some lines east of Westby were torn up for salvage, leaving a few

small grain companies without rail service. Some of those elevators still operate although their facilities are generally smaller, older and less efficient. In many cases, small outreach elevators pay discounted prices for local grain but save producers the trouble of hauling over longer distances to the terminals that have a rail siding. Outreach elevators buy grain at a discount, watch the market and truck it to a mainline delivery point when the price is right. Montana’s rail system consists of a few main carriers and a collection of short-line operators, which either own their own lines or lease access from bigger players. Spotting cars in a timely fashion is always a challenge, added Moore, but this year, it was even more problematic in northern Montana. Excess moisture and flooding interrupted service on the Westby line for three months earlier in the year. During that time, not one rail car was loaded at the Westby facility. In late August, Moore was offering cash prices of $12.25 per bushel for top quality durum, down from $12.75 a few days earlier. Producers are understandably happy with $12.25 but production problems throughout the U.S. durum growing area has many farmers anticipating a significant rally later this year, Moore said. “I’ve been here 39 years and I’ve only seen $12.25 durum twice,” he said. “Of course now, everyone’s thinking it’s going to go back up to $24, like it was a few years ago.” In August, the U.S. Department of Agriculture lowered its forecast for U.S. durum production to 57 million bushels, from 64 million the month before. In 2010-11 it produced 107 million bu. Supply pressures and the anticipation of rising prices could mean a large chunk of this year’s new crop durum will be stored on the farm.

Ewins served readers a large helping of critical information every week BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Last week, Western Pro ducer reporter/analyst Adrian Ewins succumbed to the cancer he bravely fought for the past 22 years . Ewins served Producer readers for more than three decades. From the decks of lakers laden with grain on the St. Lawrence Seaway to meeting rooms in England and the U.S. to the ancient red soils of Australia, he followed the trail of the grain trade and told its tales. Ewins immigrated to Canada from England at age two. Woodstock, Ont., became his childhood home and sports his focus. Unable to compete due to asthma, he became an inveterate Montreal Canadians fan, committing National Hockey League players’ cards statistics to memory. He played golf as child and it wasn’t until studying journalism at the Uni-

ball and cycled, riding his bike back and forth from home to the Producer’s offices whenever possible. Ewins reported on most of the major issues of past three decades such as the Crow Rate, rail line abandonment, freight costs, the prairie wheat pools and their demise, the Canadian Wheat Board and international cereals trade. After a short period at the company’s Saskatoon head office in 1977, he became the organization’s first Edmonton bureau reporter. In 1980, he was transferred back to Saskatoon to pick up the grain and transportation beat that had been vacated by Ottawa bureau journalist Barry Wilson. “Adrian was a hard working, diligent reporter. He delivered the news about some of the major agricultural issues of the times and chronicled the pools’ stories. He reported on a lot of change in Canadian agriculture,” said Wilson. John Morriss , associate publisher

of Farm Business Communications in Winnipeg and former communications director at the CWB, said Ewins knew the importance of telling farmers about the politics of their cooperative grain companies and the business of getting grain from their farms to consumers. “They were complex stories. The transportation problems of the 1980s, the prairie pools sagas of the 1990s, the Canadian Wheat Board. He covered them all,” said Morriss. Ewins was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1989. After surgery and treatment, he remained cancer free for more than five years. It returned, but Adrian wouldn’t compromise when it came to living his life. Western Producer publisher Larry Hertz said Adrian’s work ethic and devotion to his profession was inspirational to everyone. “When others might have turned to their bucket list or given up, Adrian

took his treatments and then came in to work. His courage and strength was inspiring to everyone who knew him,” said Hertz. Karen Murdock, his wife of 31 years, said her husband believed in balance. “When he came home, he left his work. There were his sports, music and books. Our life together. He didn’t compromise on those things,” she said. “He was very British, he wouldn’t complain about work or being sick or anything,” she said. She and Adrian travelled around the globe on holidays, including trips to Sweden, Italy, Australia, the U.S. and across Canada. They regularly travelled to England where he visited relatives. He is survived by Karen, his brother, Simon, and niece, Meaghan, his relatives in England and Australia, mother-in-law Beatrice, Karen’s siblings Lanny, Heather and Faye and six nieces and nephews.

MANITOBA ELECTION | PREDICTION

NEWS

READY FOR A MUD FACIAL?

Voter mood for change may be key in election BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

During the last four weeks, Manitoba politicians have talked about street gangs, hospital waiting times, the provincial deficit, the Canadian Wheat Board and the most appropriate route for a proposed power line. Yet, these issues will count for little when Manitobans cast their ballot in the provincial election Oct. 4, said Curtis Brown of Probe Research in Winnipeg. A much larger factor will be the appetite for change in Manitoba, not the real or fabricated issues of the moment. “The thing you have to remember is that Manitoba has a fairly established pattern of alternation,” said Brown, a research associate with the polling firm. “The NDP have had three (successive governments) and they’re going for four. Even when things are going fairly well, still often there is a pattern where people feel it’s time for a change.” If Manitobans have reached the point where they crave political change, the election results could tip in favour of the provincial Tories, Brown added. “You saw this four years ago in Saskatchewan, where the NDP were going for the fifth term. Even though things were going fairly well, the economy was good, there was a sense that it was time for a different government.” Brad Wall and the Saskatchewan Party won in 2007 handily, but few political watchers believe the Progressive Conservatives and leader Hugh McFadyen will win the 2011 Manitoba election in a romp. Premier Greg Selinger and the NDP had a substantive seat lead going into the election, with 36 seats in the house compared to 18 for the Tories. Polls throughout 2011 suggested the Tories held a slight lead in public opinion. Nonetheless, several swing constituencies in south Winnipeg will likely determine the outcome of the election, said Bill Neville, retired University of Manitoba political studies professor. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

MANITOBA ELECTION | FARM VIEW

Farm groups fight to get ag on agenda Impact on economy | The NDP’s promise to end the land portion of education tax encouraging BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Manitoba’s farm groups and commodity organizations have laid out many specific issues they hope the new provincial government will deal with. But overall, they most want a government that realizes that agriculture is central to Manitoba’s economy and the welfare of all Manitobans. “It’s not just in our rural communities that agriculture and the beef industry impacts the province’s economy,” said Manitoba Beef Producers manager Cam Dahl. “It matters to Winnipeg, it matters to Brandon, it matters to Portage (La Prairie) and it matters to all the many centres of Manitoba. It’s a big part of our economy.” Manitoba’s election result doesn’t depend on how farmers and rural

people vote, and most farmers know that. Winnipeg dominates the provincial population and the swing ridings that will determine who wins the election are almost all in Winnipeg and Brandon. The mainstream provincial media is based in Winnipeg and rarely goes beyond the city’s Perimeter Highway, creating the phenomenon of “Perimeter vision,” in which issues that are big outside of Winnipeg get little media or political play. The goal of most farm organizations in this election race, which ends with the Oct. 4 election, has been to get farmers’ issues onto the candidates’ plates, and Keystone Agricultural Producers believes it has been at least partially successful. KAP thinks the NDP’s promise, made in the middle of the campaign, to eliminate the farmland portion of education tax is a sign that some

farmer interests are being taken seriously. “For a farm organization, that’s a major accomplishment,” said KAP president Doug Chorney. But many crucial decisions will be made after the election, and KAP worries that dangerous precedents set before the election call will go forward and hurt farmers over the next few years. The Save Lake Winnipeg Act, supported by all three provincial parties in the legislature, targeted the hog industry, but could also be the beginning of a move against crop and beef producers, the organization thinks. KAP wants to see the attitude of the government change when the law is given regulations. “If we don’t see a difference in the approach through regulations of nutrient management, it’s going to change the face of agriculture in

Manitoba,” said Chorney. The Manitoba Pork Council is also anxiously awaiting the formation of the new government, worried about the same negative attitude KAP thinks it sees in the politicians’ willingness to blame Lake Winnipeg’s woes on farmers. Even though hog production in Manitoba only causes 1.5 percent of the phosphorus flowing into Lake Winnipeg, the NDP government passed two pieces of legislation that directly targeted the industry, and this summer, the Save Lake Winnipeg Act was supported by both the Liberals and Progressive Conservatives. Whoever takes over on Oct. 4 needs to abandon the hostility to hog farmers and base their approach on science, said pork council president Karl Kynoch. “We need a change in attitude.” access=subscriber section=news,none,none

CANOLA | CLUBROOT

Wet spring spreads clubroot infestation across Alberta BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Water brought some bumper crops to north-central Alberta this year. It also delivered something unwanted: clubroot. In areas where the fungal pest was only showing up in a small way in previous years, this season it has reared its gall covered, lumpy head. The Canola Council of Canada says several counties that were on the fringes of clubroot infestation now

find themselves fully engaged with the canola root disease. For the County of Vermillion River, it means being added to the list of infected municipalities. Spores travel with the soil. Some have migrated with farm machinery moving from field to field in previous s e a s o n s a n d w e re d o r ma nt o r increasing populations, waiting for the right conditions to manifest. Good soil moisture and the presence of plants from the mustard family are needed to excite the clubroot spores

into infectious life. Dan Orchard of the council said the conditions were nearly ideal for the disease in many areas of Alberta. The disease can spread in water runoff, as well as by machine traffic, and is hard to get rid of, short of not growing canola and keeping wild mustard and other crucifers out of the field for years. While many of the canola crops in the region are already harvested, producers in the area are encouraged to look for signs of infection.

“Clubroot is often confused with heat or drought stress,” said Orchard. Even though the season is over, knowing the pest is present is the first step in avoiding further spread into other fields. Typically, clubroot is identified a couple of weeks ahead of swathing by scouting for under-performing patches in a canola field. However growers can also look for these areas from the swather or combine. At that time, root galls — swollen, deformed roots — are still firm and

white when bisected. Later in the season when dug from the soil, the galls appear more like peat moss inside an enlarged decaying root. Not all infestations are identified by lower yields, because early stage infestations sometimes have a limited effect on the plants if they occur later in the season. If a clubroot infection is suspected, producers are encouraged to send root samples to a lab for testing. For more information, visit www. clubroot.ca. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

FIELD WORK | WEED CONTROL

Unseeded acres lead to war on weeds Working flooded land | Farmers are busy in southeastern Saskatchewan tilling, cultivating and preparing for next year BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Allan Brigden of Stoughton, Sask., has been farming for a half century and this marks the first year he failed to get a crop in. He normally farms almost 100 quarters, but this year planted zero acres. Since spring, about 700 millimetres of rain has fallen in the southeastern area of Saskatchewan, about three times the average. While the rest of the province is now harvesting, Brigden and most of his neighbours are fighting a war on weeds. They’re attempting to dry their fields, reduce winter’s expected snow buildup and prepare for next spring’s seeding. He should soon have his fields completely disced, if it doesn’t rain. Once Brigden was unable to seed, he focused on weed control throughout this growing season. By the time spraying started in early July, weeds were getting tall but had not yet gone to seed. He said it cost $10 an acre to spray. “Nothing is growing. Now we’re beating down all the brown trash so we don’t get a big snow catch,” he said. “Our stand that is two feet high, if we don’t chop it down and it fills up with snow, (the field) will not be seeded in 2012,” he said. Brigden tried vertical tillage but the amount of residue standing on top of the ground didn’t work. He implemented Plan B and used a heavy harrow but that didn’t work either. “We couldn’t get the harrow to stay full so it would mop that trash down,” he said. His last option was to use tandem discs, two of which were

We’re running 101 feet of disc with three big tractors to get it done,” he said. Greg Gerry echoes Brigden’s experiences. Many producers quiz the agrologist, farmer and part owner of Precision Ag Services in Griffin, Sask., on a course of action. He stressed the importance of controlling weeds. “The big thing is we are recommending to guys to get a good handle on the weeds that are out there because we need to farm next year.” He said the southeast is abuzz with

weed control activity. In a recent trip through the area, he saw cultivators, mowers, and har rows passing through weed-filled fields. He even saw weeds being straight cut with a newer combine. “There’s a hundred ways to deal with these weeds. I don’t think one is any worse than the other. It’s what a guy is set up to do,” he said. Gerry said he thinks buckwheat and fireweed will likely cause the most headaches next year. Both can grow four and five feet tall. Buckwheat is known to wrap around air drill shanks, while fireweed is difficult to knock down with harrows and is an effective snow trap.

On the positive side, Gerry said the subsoil will have high moisture for next season. With cultivating, tilling and harrowing that’s going on, he said he doesn’t expect there will be a lot of snow catch, which should help fields to dry. “If we don’t get a lot of snow, hopefully it won’t be as bad as last spring,” he said. He warned that nitrogen reserves may not be as high as what many producers think. “It’s been so wet for so long. We’ve seen a lot of de-nitrification in the wet areas. A lot of leaching has occurred,” he said.

HARVEST | WEATHER

September heat wave advances harvest across Prairies BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The 2011 harvest is nearing completion thanks to another week of unusually warm, dry autumn weather across the Prairies. Officials from provincial agriculture departments in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba said producers made significant harvest progress last week. The Canadian Wheat Board reported earlier this week that harvest was complete in most areas of Manitoba and southern Saskatchewan. Producers in northern Saskatchewan and Alberta still have ground to cover but were expected to make progress thanks to favourable forecasts throughout the West. According to the CWB, the overall prairie harvest was 84 percent complete as of Sept. 26, well ahead of the 78 percent average. Barring unexpected delays, provincial crop specialists suggested all but the last few percent of Western Canada’s total seeded acreage should be

in the bin by the end of the month. August and September delivered ideal harvest conditions for farmers in most regions of the Prairies this year, according to Grant McLean, cropping management specialist for Saskatchewan Agriculture. That included little or no rainfall and temperatures that were well above average, he said. As of Sept. 19, the Saskatchewan harvest was 76 percent complete. That number will likely be closer to 96 percent by the end of September. “Farmers made significant progress over the past week,” McLean said. “I think by the end of (September) … harvest certainly will be finished in a significant way. “Even those areas where they were very delayed in seeding … they’re down to just a few (acres).” While many prairie producers will remember 2011 for its warm, open fall and ideal harvest conditions, other farmers will be all too eager to say goodbye to a year that was characterized by widespread flooding, incessant spring rain and weed-

infested cropland. In southeastern Saskatchewan and southwestern Manitoba, producers had scarce little crop to harvest, said Elaine Moats, a provincial crop specialist based in Weyburn, Sask. In the Weyburn area, many producers sowed less than a quarter of their normal acreage this spring, Moats said. In some municipalities, seeded acreage was even smaller, averaging eight to 10 percent of normal, she added. “We’ve had an extremely tough year moisture wise,” said Moats. “Very little crop was seeded and of the crop that was seeded, probably half of that was drowned out.” According to Moats, 2011 has been a battle for producers across a large area of southeastern Saskatchewan, south of Highway 1. Soil that was saturated last fall received above-average snowfall last winter and a late April snowstorm that covered the area. Recurring spring rain forced many growers to abandon spring planting

and focus instead on managing waterlogged farmland. Crops that were harvested produced poorly due to early moisture stress, shallow rooting and disease. Ergot is evident in many grain samples and some cereal crops filled poorly due to hot, dry weather that began in mid-July and continued through August and September. “The crop that was mudded in has been pretty disappointing,” Moats said. “Generally … it yielded about half of what it looked like it was going to yield.” Scott Day, a provincial crop diversification specialist with Manitoba Agriculture, said growers in southwestern Manitoba faced a similar situation. About three million acres of Manitoba’s cropland went unseeded this spring, much of it in the area south of Highway 1 and west of Highway 10, which runs south of Brandon to the United States border. Day, who is based in Melita, Man., said seeded acreage was extremely

small in his area and summerfallow is plentiful. “Harvest was very quick,” said Day. “This is probably Ground Zero here in Manitoba when you talk about poor crop conditions from the getgo. We never got much seeded to begin with and what was seeded probably wasn’t worth it. If it was break-even, you were probably lucky.” Although producers in the Melita area didn’t derive much income from this year’s crop, they still absorbed significant expenses. “I think a lot of farmers were surprised at how much work it took to maintain their acres weed-free,” said Day. “Thank God it dried up (since early July) because it’s given producers a chance to get back in the field and regain some of those acres that were flooded out ….” An update issued by the CWB last week said quality reports for wheat, durum and barley are very good, although ergot is evident in some samples. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

CHINA IMPORTS | U.S. CORN

Analysts expect large China corn buy USDA unconvinced | Disputes over reserves, crop size and demand keep markets guessing BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The burning question in corn markets is — how much will China buy? There is no easy answer. “It’s a very large unknown in the world grain market,” said Jerry Norton, a grains analyst with the U. S. Department of Agriculture. USDA’s best guess is that China will import two million tonnes in 201112. But a survey of 10 industry analysts conducted by Reuters showed a range of estimates from four to 10 million tonnes, with an average of 6.7 million tonnes. If 6.7 million is correct, it would rally corn and other crop markets. “If there was that kind of buying pressure coming out of China it would be very positive for prices,” said Norton. Erick Erickson, special assistant for planning and evaluation at the U.S. Grains Council, says China is a secretive corn buyer. His detective work has led him to side with the private analysts who believe China will start importing large volumes beginning in March 2012. “We just look at all the data and say, ‘The upside is much stronger than the downside,’” said Erickson. Norton has a feeling of déjà vu. “(Private analysts) had some fairly aggressive forecasts for China’s corn purchasing in 2010-11 too,” he said. But they were wrong. In its latest supply and demand estimates, the USDA dropped its 2010-11 Chinese corn import number to 1.3 million tonnes, a far cry from what the private analysts were calling for. One person forecasting huge Chinese imports last year was U.S. Grains Council president Thomas Dorr. He told The Western Producer that China would import at least three million tonnes and as much as 7.6 million tonnes in 2010-11. Norton acknowledged that the recent drop in corn prices has made it more attractive for China to buy. But the simple truth is that nobody access=subscriber section=markets,none,none

Many believe 4.8 million tonnes of U.S. corn purchased for an unnamed destination will go to China. | has a good handle on China’s corn reserves or its level of demand. A key piece of data influencing Erickson’s thoughts is the amount of outstanding U.S. corn shipments to unknown destinations as of Sept. 1. That number shows 4.85 million tonnes of U.S. corn was sold but undelivered in 2010-11. There were rumours from reputable sources that China bought millions of tonnes of U.S. corn this spring and summer, yet only 977,000 tonnes was shipped there. That is why Erickson and others believe a good portion of the 4.85 million tonnes of undelivered corn will go to China. However, there is no way to know where the grain is headed until it is shipped and the exporters are legally required to report the destination. “If we knew (those sales) were

going to China we’d report them like that,” he said. One big influence on how much corn China buys is its own harvest that will begin in October. “People are pretty positive about how this crop is shaping up.” China’s government and private analysts expect a record crop. The USDA forecasts a five million tonne increase over last year’s harvest. Erickson said the USDA uses official Chinese numbers. Private analysts working in China think the crop is always much smaller than the government says it is, while their consumption estimates are similar. “As a result, instead of having steady ending stocks of 45 million tonnes these private analysts are guessing that stocks have declined to about 25 million tonnes,” he said. Reuters reports that China’s gov-

ernment holds 64 million tonnes of wheat compared to 12 million tonnes of corn, which represents a onemonth supply of the commodity. China’s State Grain Administration said on Sept. 20 that 3.7 million tonnes of corn from its grain reserves would be released before the end of November to meet market demand . But everybody agrees that China will soon be a major buyer of corn. Chinese government officials forecast 11 million tonnes of imports by 2015 and nearly 20 million tonnes by 2020, a clear signal for growers around the world to plant more corn. That is a dilemma for U.S. grain companies because China’s approval system for GM crops is slower than those in other export destinations. Bunge recently announced that it won’t accept delivery of Syngenta’s Viptera corn because China had not

approved the insecticidal trait. Syngenta is suing Bunge, arguing that it received regulatory approval for the crop in all the markets recommended by the National Corn Growers Association and the Biotechnology Information Council. The National Grain and Feed Association and the North American Export Grain Association issued a joint press release condemning Syngenta for the “overly aggressive commercialization” of its technology that could endanger export markets. Erickson said the Syngenta incident could be the first of many to come. “The whole industry has to be looking at this and saying, ‘Now what are we going to do?’” FOR MORE MARKETS AND THE POOL RETURN OUTLOOK, SEE PAGE 16.

MARKET PRICING | RISKS

Uncertainty over wheat board puts risk in farmers’ hands BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

No one knows what’s going to happen to the Canadian Wheat Board, so

no one in the grain business is willing to expose themselves to risk by offering new crop prices. That puts all the risk on farmers, who are unlikely to be able to safely

price 2012-13 board grains for months. It’s a dangerous and potentially disastrous situation for farmers, say marketing advisers.

“We’re between a rock and a hard place until the government gets the ball rolling,” said Derek Squair, the president of Agri-Trend Marketing. Usually at this time of year, risk-

averse farmers begin locking in some crop prices for the following year’s crop. A number of Canadian Wheat Board Producer Payment Options access=subscriber section=markets,none,none

Farmers caught in market volatility Farmers lock in canola HEDGE ROW

Exchange rates bounce wildly as countries struggle to boost economies, control debt

n one calamitous day Sept. 22, most stock markets around the world plunged by about four percent and the Canadian dollar also fell, dropping more than two cents compared to the U.S. dollar. It was a particularly stark example of the “flight to safety” occurring in world markets as dread over the European debt situation washes over all else. Yet Canada’s underlying economic fundamentals make its economy, financial system and currency seem much stronger than those of the U.S., so most objective measures would have supported a higher loonie and lower greenback. How does any farmer make informed decisions about currency exchange risk in that environment? “This is scary stuff,” said Al Mussell about the currency volatility. “How can you come up with a forecast for what a government or central bank will suddenly do?” Exchange rates are always susceptible to the tides of investor sentiment, but since 2008, they have also been hit by vigorous attempts by cenoffer farmers a way to lock in elements of forward prices, futures contracts exist for crops like canola and cash contracts exist for many crops from many buyers. Agri-Trend makes much use of the CWB PPOs as cash generators and risk minimizers in its farmer-client marketing plans. But because of the federal government’s declared intention to end the C WB’s m on o p ol ies b e f ore th e beginning of the 2012-13 crop year, the CWB is not offering 2012-13 PPOs — a decision few question since there is no way for the CWB to know whether it will even exist in a year’s time. Grain companies also often offer new crop contracts at this time of year, but are generally not doing that n ow f o r 2 0 1 2 - 1 3 b o a rd g ra i n s because of the uncertainty. “I appreciate the reason that the grain trade is being cautious, because they don’t know what’s going to happen,” said Jon Driedger of FarmLink Marketing Solutions. “And whether someone loves or hates the board, you can respect the fact that they don’t know what’s going to happen to them. It’s difficult for anyone to make decisions.” Farmers can use futures contracts for spring wheat and other types of wheat, but any position entered into now could create risks and losses if the board’s monopolies survive into 2012-13. That makes U.S. futures lose much of their appeal as risk management tools.

tral banks to manipulate money flow and investment. China has long been a currency rate manipulator, keeping the yuan lower than it would be if freed from government control, but the actions of Western governments while less direct have also had major impacts on the relative values of their currencies. The ocean of cheap money that flushed through the U.S. financial system since the 2008 meltdown has had the effect of lowering the U.S. dollar. But the swings in value are hard to forecast, with many governments simultaneously making dramatic but contradictory fiscal and monetary moves. Commodities and currency Canadian farmers feel the effect of both rising commodity prices and volatile currency exchange rates, with the two feeding each other. Since the mid-2000s, exchange rates have been volatile, reacting first to the commodity boom that drove currencies like the loonie far higher than they had been for years, then recoiling in the great financial and economic implosion of late 2008 and driving the psychologically safe U.S. greenback far above almost all other currencies. In the past two years, the commodity bull market has roared forward again, and that has driven currencies like the loonie, the Australian dollar and the Brazilian real higher. This causes problems for exporters such as farmers, because most commodities are priced in U.S. dollar terms so a rise in the value of a currency compared to the greenback generally means a lower real price for the commodity. The federal government’s goal to have an open market by the beginning of 2012-13 relies on legislation being introduced, sent through committee, passed and made law in time. Opposition parties say they intend to oppose the government’s monopoly-breaking moves. Federal Liberals attended the proCWB rallies this summer and have tried to draw attention to the issue. NDP interim leader Nycole Turmel recently said her party intends to try to amend and alter the government’s legislation once it gets to committee. How long legislation could be delayed is unclear, which is why few grain companies or buyers are willing to offer new crop prices for board grains, and why marketing advisers are warning farmers to be cautious. “We have recommended that they not do any forward selling until (the government) tables legislation in Parliament,” said Squair. “Once it looks like it’s going to go through, we’ll do some forward selling.” Squair is helping farmers lock in prices for 2012-13 canola and other non-board grains, leading to skewed risk management programs. Driedger said cautious farmers are unhappy not being able to protect new crop board grain prices, so politicians need to realize the commercial reality of farming. “How are guys supposed to budget and make plans?” he said.

Recently, the Brazilian central bank slashed its main interest rate, even though the country is suffering a high inflation rate. Most analysts believe it is responding to the surge of the country’s currency value compared to the U.S. dollar and it sees the threat of inflation as less worrisome than the relative fall in commodity prices. Canada’s central bank has lived with a surging loonie, but repeatedly warned about its negative impact on manufacturers and exporters. Farmers can hedge their exposure to currency swings by taking futures positions in exchange rate pairs, but this is only low risk if it is used to protect an existing sale that will definitely go forward. If a farmer wants to protect his exposure to future currency swings but doesn’t want to lock himself in, he can buy option contracts. However, with volatility exploding once again, option premiums have shot up, lessening their attaction. Farmers are exposed to risk if they hedge using American dollar denominated futures contracts, because swings in currency exchange rates are not always reflected perfectly in the underlying commodity price. But few loonie-denominated crop futures contracts exist. In a few months, ICE Futures Canada in Winnipeg hopes to have new contracts for spring wheat, durum and barley. These, combined with the existing canola contract, will provide hedging mechanisms that are less vulnerable to currency exchange risk. But until then, and for other commodities, the new era of currency exchange volatility is likely to add anxiety to farmers making marketing plans. access=subscriber section=markets,none,none

Future planning | High canola prices enticing farmers BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

It appears farmers are forward contracting a lot more canola than usual for this time of year. In a recent The CWB Monitor blog, John De Pape said he was speaking with a grain company senior trader who said farmers are eager to lock in today’s prices. The trader told De Pape he “would not believe” how much of next year’s canola crop the grain company has already purchased. A glance at the amount of open interest in the November 2012 canola contract on ICE Futures Canada confirms that notion. As of Sept. 23, there was open interest on 9,636 20-tonne contracts. At this time last year, open interest in the following year’s contract stood at 3,253 and two years ago, open interest stood at only 127 contracts. Brad Vannan, president of ICE Futures Canada, said the higherthan-usual amount of open interest is a good indication of increased farmer contracting activity. “What we’re seeing now is farmers are planning fur ther for ward. They’re taking a look at decisions that they have to make well in advance and they’re taking action,” he said. “I’m assuming that it’s hedge related and if it’s hedge related, it means that it’s all about risk management and I’m a very strong proponent of risk management in this business.” Though off recently, canola futures prices are historically strong. Franck Groeneweg, a grower from Edgeley, Sask., said it’s hard to ignore

a contract with a grain company offering to pay him $11.17 per bushel for October 2012 delivery. “These are profitable prices within our cost of production right now, so it’s kind of hard not to want to price something at these levels,” he said. Groeneweg hasn’t forward sold any 2012 canola yet because he is still pricing this year’s harvest, but it won’t be long before he locks in a portion of his anticipated crop. “If it’s five percent that I do generally, I might just do 10 percent because it is an attractive price,” he said. One factor influencing his decision is the potential of a European banking crisis. Memories of the 2008 global financial crisis, during which canola prices tumbled on a daily basis, are still vivid. “It has nothing to do with fundamentals, but that’s the world we’re in right now,” said Groeneweg. Vannan said growers have another good reason for forward contracting a portion of next year’s crop. “They may want to lock in a certain amount of production value today to serve as a hedge against input costs,” he said. “Canola is a higher stakes game. You’re putting more into the crop. You’ve got the potential to get more back out of it but there’s more risk.” Vannan figures growers are contracting around 15 percent of their production at this time of the year to mitigate price and cost risks. “If you can use the tools that are available to you to lock in a reasonable expected profit … that’s exactly what the futures market is intended to do,” he said. access=subscriber section=markets,none,none

MARKETS CANFAX REPORT FED PRICES STRONGER Rising worries about a potential recession drove Chicago cattle futures lower. But cash prices in Canada rose, helped by a sharp decline in the Canadian dollar. Two tier pricing was evident as packers showed strong interest in securing longer fed cattle. Rail bids rose $1-$3 per hundredweight, ultimately boosting the Canfax average steer and heifer price. The average for steers was $104.29 per cwt., up $1.51 and heifers were $102.57, up 48 cents. Despite moderate car r yover, showlist volumes were manageable. The wide cash-to-futures basis at -$15.40 sparked U.S. packer interest in Alberta and Saskatchewan fed cattle. Weekly sales volumes totalled 19,169 head, up two percent. Weekly fed exports totalled 5,177 to Sept. 10. Feedlots are doing a good job managing inventory , but Canadian packers have good inventory and are in a strong bargaining position to keep prices steady. The stronger U.S. dollar could limit American beef exports and encourage imports, which would weigh on U.S. cattle prices.

WP LIVESTOCK REPORT increase. Analysts had expected the southern plains drought and high corn prices would force cattle producers to ship more animals to feedlots. The number of cattle in feedlots rose five percent to 10.7 million head as of Sept. 1, less than the expected 8.3 percent increase, but was still the third highest for that date in at least 15 years. Marketings in August were up seven percent while analysts expected about a five percent increase.

HOG PRICES STEADY Strong exports to China continued to support U.S. pork and hog prices. T h e w e a k e r Ca na d i a n d o l l a r should support prices in Canada. Iowa-southern Minnesota cash hogs delivered to plants edged higher to $68 US per hundredweight Sept. 23, up from $67 Sept. 16. Cash U.S. pork carcass cut-out value closed at $97.84 Sept. 23, up from $95.37 Sept. 16. The U.S. federal weekly slaughter estimate was 2.289 million, up from 2.87 million the previous week.

SHEEP STEADY Ontario Stockyards Inc. reported 1,673 sheep and lambs and 92 goats traded Sept. 19. Lambs were barely steady. Sheep and goats were steady.

COWS EDGE HIGHER Slaughter cow prices rose 50 cents with D1, D2 cows averaging $68.65 per cwt. live. Dressed prices were steady at around $130-135. Butcher bull prices fell 43 cents. Non-fed exports to the U.S. were nine percent lower than the previous week at 3,556 head. Non-fed prices are expected to trend lower as supply increases.

FEEDER PRICES RISE Strong demand and moderate auction volume led to higher feeder prices. Steers and heifers 300 to 400 pounds traded significantly higher. Middle weight steers generally were 50 cents higher while steers over 900 lb. eased lower. Heifers 400 to 700 lb. rose $1 per cwt. while 700 to 900 lb. fell $1. Heifer calves are about $20 per cwt. lower than steers while yearling heifers are about $10 under. Auction volumes were up three percent from the previous week but 13 percent lower than the same week last year. Weekly exports to Sept. 10 rose to 895 head. To date, exports are down 63 percent.

CFIA POLICY | ORGANIC DECERTIFICATION

CRAIG’S VIEW

Public’s right to know at odds with CFIA policy

f you search online for the name Jirah Milling and Sales Inc. on the Canadian Food Inspection Agency website, you will find nothing. There is not one single reference to the company whose licence to sell organic food and feed was cancelled by the agency Aug. 9. No one knew about the revocation for some time, because the CFIA did not post a notice on its website, and did not put out a news release or any other kind of public notification. Only the “internal and external stakeholders” of Jirah were told of the cancelled licence. No one knows why the CFIA revoked the certification. There are six reasons for suspension and cancellation of organic certification as listed on the CFIA website, so perhaps we can assume the revocation was for one of these reasons: • not complying with provisions of the act governing organic substances, CFIA regulations, or the certification itself; • in the case of multi-ingredient products, not ensuring that at least 70 percent was organic; • using substances other than those set out in the permitted substances list; • allowing the agricultural product to come into contact with substances other than those on the list; • not using the substances in the manner described in the standards of the act, or • not complying with production, processing, packaging or labelling methods. It’s a reasonably long list, so customers must make assumptions about what the infractions were; and not all infractions are created equally. Labelling issues, for instance, are quite different from not selling organic substances as advertised. In explaining why specific information was not forthcoming, the CFIA said it “strives to be a transparent and open organization,” but must also respect privacy rights, confidentiality of third party information and other legal requirements.

It is hardly transparent not to inform the public of the reasons for a decertification, but the agency did not even disseminate the simple fact of the licence revocation. (The CIFA has since added a list of companies that have had licences suspended or cancelled, but Jirah is not on the list.) Even if one accepts the privacy argument, it can not possibly be a privacy issue to announce the decertification itself. The public is most certainly a stakeholder under these circumstances. Downstream customers of organic firms, both domestic and foreign, should know if the products they are eating or feeding to livestock have been mixed with non-organic substances. Another issue is the toothlessness of the CFIA’s range of tools to manage organic companies. It can not impose fines or penalties, which may act as deterrents. Penalties would also give our export partners — not to mention the domestic population — greater confidence in the organic certification system. By contrast, U.S. regulators can assess penalties up to $10,000 per violation. If there are several violations, that could add up to a significant sum. Furthermore, without knowing the reasons for decertification, customers don’t know what to guard against. For instance, if farmers think they are buying organic feed for their organically raised livestock, but really are not, would that affect their own certifications? As Mark Kastel of the Cornucopia Institute, the U.S. industry watchdog that received numerous complaints about Jirah, points out, you don’t suspend a certification because “they forgot to dot the i’s or cross the t’s.” Whatever Jirah was doing, it was a significant enough problem to trigger a cancellation of its licence. The public needs to know, and the CFIA needs to revisit its policies.

CWB | FEDERAL BILL

What if CWB freedom doesn’t break out? This could be a Tory problem NATIONAL VIEW

BARRY WILSON

hat happens if Winnipeg New Democrat MP Pat Martin is correct? What happens if the Conservative government simply has left itself too little time to get legislation through Parliament to meet its promise of ending the Canadian Wheat Board single desk Aug. 1, 2012? The sun still will rise in the east that day, its rays warming Manitoba first

before sliding over to cover Saskatchewan, Alberta and then Peace River grain fields with golden rays. One difference might be that the sun will be shining on some renegade Tories, some outlaw farmers heading south. But first, how likely is Martin’s prediction to be true? “I think farmers should operate under the assumption that the status quo will prevail for 2012 because the minister cannot guarantee delivery of his promise,” the feisty veteran Winnipeg MP said recently. An energized, determined and creative House of Commons opposition can find many ways to delay legislation, even with a majority government. Martin may be too optimistic about the obstructionist power of the opposition in a majority House. But as Parliament has evolved over the centu-

ries, rules and practices have been developed that allow a majority government to ultimately get its way but also allows the opposition that almost always represents the majority of voters to spend time making its points, trying to mobilize the public to pressure government to change its mind. A creative opposition can find a way to push a wrench into the wheel. In 1982, the Progressive Conservative opposition forced the majority Liberal government to break up an omnibus energy bill that included the National Energy Program simply by refusing to show up, letting Parliament Hill bells calling MPs to a vote ring for more than two weeks until the Liberals capitulated. So Martin has some history on his side. And agriculture minister Gerry Ritz really has left the government

precious little time to pass what will be complicated legislation and regulations to implement what would be a seismic change in grain marketing after 68 years of relatively stable rules. Parliament meets for nine weeks before adjourning for a six week Christmas break followed by a winter and spring session that ends mid-June. In that relatively short window, the government has crime legislation to push through and other priority legislation. So what happens if Aug. 1, 2012 dawns with the prospect of at least another year for the CWB single desk? This would be the Conservative nightmare: On that morning, scores of anti-wheat board farmers fire up their trucks to drive south to American elevators. They have waited through more than 14 months of

majority Conservative government that promised Aug. 1, 2012 freedom. Enough is enough. You promised. So charge us. And if, as is likely, many of those farmers would head toward the border in southern Manitoba where public safety minister Vic Toews and his parliamentar y secretar y Candice Hoeppner are prominent faces of the Conservative “tough on crime” campaign, what would the government do? Would it let farmers and Conservative supporters break the law with impunity or would supporters be charged? A law that will be changed but hasn’t been yet, still is the law. Unless the government can strongarm grain legislation through Parliament by winter over howls of undemocratic arrogance, Ritz may regret his May promise of Freedom 2012. access=subscriber section=opinion,none,none

& OPEN FORUM CWB | FARMERS’ VOICES

FAREWELL | WP REPORTER

Ottawa must listen to farmers’ views

Good-bye to Adrian, friend, writer

Frank Valeriote, MP for Guelph, Ont., and Liberal agriculture critic, says eliminating the CWB with no replacement model is reckless

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

he results of a plebiscite on the continued operation of the single-desk Canadian Wheat Board make it clear: Canadian grain farmers want the board to stay. In August, 68,000 ballots were mailed out to farmers and hundreds of farmers came in off the fields for meetings as harvest began to ensure their voices were heard. Yet just when farmers are asking them to listen, Conservative MPs are nowhere to be seen or heard from. In March, the agriculture minister (Gerry Ritz) promised to listen to farmers’ views on the CWB. Months later, he is categorically uninterested in the results of their plebiscite. By denying farmers a say in the future of the board, minister Ritz and his government are throwing democracy and the will of the farmers it affects most out the window. Many argue that with the fragile state of the world economy, the CWB is more important than ever before for the grain-exporting Prairies. The livelihoods of Canadian farmers and small businesses are at stake. The board markets and sells on behalf of every wheat and grain producer in the Prairies, to some 70 countries and 100 buyers across the world. Its unique position allows it to act as a price setter instead of a price taker. This is not about limiting choice for

farmers. It’s about marketing different qualities of grain at different times of the year to different markets through a board that knows and s e r v e s t h e f a r m e r s’ n e e d s. It s strength is in the fact that all farmers are in it together. Recently, the Wall Street Journal welcomed the impending demise of the CWB, since “…more money goes back to farmers than under an open market system” and “grain handlers such as Cargill Inc., Viterra Inc. and Bunge Ltd. could see their roles and returns in Canadian grain markets grow.” Without the CWB, which returns excess revenues to the pockets of farmers, the larger rail and grain companies, who can sustain their own networks, will finally have access to those farmer’s profits. Their interest is not the well-being of farmers, but rather their own bottom line. In the wake of minister Ritz’s pronouncements on the death of the CWB, shares in Viterra nearly doubled. What’s more, the CWB’s unique position allows it to negotiate fair transport costs. Short-line rail owners benefit from the ability to acquire producer cars from CN Rail. The supply of cars along the short lines means farmers can avoid expensive transportation costs up to a saving of $1,400 per car.

The government refuses to acknowledge the $500 million in added value of critical weather analysis, research and access to producer cars provided by the CWB. Using a network of more than 800 weather stations, located on farms across the West, the CWB provides accurate weather information, as well as grain research and innovation. A majority of grain farmers in the Prairies have clearly said “no” to the Conservatives tearing their sales and marketing arm away, hobbling access to affordable transportation and throwing away a valuable research and meteorological resource. They said no to the ideology and empty rhetoric of a government turning a blind eye to the benefits of the CWB to famers and other small businesses. Forsaking billions of dollars i n re v e n u e w i t h n o s o u n d replacement model is reckless, yet this government made it clear it will only listen to farmers so long as it is something they want to hear. Canadian farmers know what is in their own best interests, and the government would do well to listen.

LAND VALUES | UPWARD PRESSURE

Producers plan expansions as profitability rises HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

xpect increased competition for land leading up to the 2012 growing season. Land prices and cash rents are both seeing upward pressure. The farm income picture is strong. The notable exception is southeastern Saskatchewan and a big chunk of Manitoba where it was impossible to seed a crop this spring. In most other regions, yields were good to very good and crop quality is well above average. Grain prices have seen downward pressure in recent weeks due to fears of a global recession, but prices overall are strong from a historical per-

spective. The last few years have seen unprecedented profitability in the grain sector and that has lots of producers yearning to expand. On top of it all, interest rates have never been lower. Ten years ago, it was difficult to find renters for the land in some areas. There were stories of cash rents equal to just the value of the property taxes. In retrospect, that was the time to be amassing a land base. These days, young people are being drawn back to the farm and that means the family operation is looking for more ground. These young folks have typically been involved in the farm while holding down a job or running a separate business. Now they’d like to phase out of their offfarm activities. Hutterite colonies are active in many land markets, particularly when new colonies are established. Once land is owned by a colony, it seldom comes back on the market again. And more than ever before, land is being viewed as an investment by

individuals and investment companies. This outside money is contributing to higher land values. Increasingly, there are mega farms with a huge land base spread over a considerable geographic area. The newest air drills and combines are technological marvels covering more ground than ever before. Each drill and each combine requires several thousand acres to make the machinery investment viable. Money talks for those wanting to buy or rent more land, but there’s also a personal side. A retiring farmer may favour a relative or a young farmer in the area rather than holding out for the top dollar. No one used to give Old Jake the time of day, but now that he’s looking to retire there are several neighbours being friendly hoping to get an inside track on his land. Every Saskatchewan farmer has a map of the rural municipality, so who owns what quarter of land is never a secret. Land deals often create hard feelings, rifts in families and within the

community that can take years to heal. With more money involved, the stakes are now higher than ever before. Land prices are a matter of public record, so it’s possible to access sales information and have an idea of what land in a particular location with a particular quality is worth. Rental values are much more nebulous. In the United States, cash rent information is tabulated, but there’s nothing official in Western Canada, except for an occasional survey. To investigate land rents in a particular area, you have to talk to renters and landlords and hope they’re willing to share that information. Many of the mega farms are built largely on a rented land base. Whether purchasing or renting, the trend going into next year is clear. Many producers have expansion aspirations and that will push the land market higher. Kevin Hursh is an agricultural journalist, consultant and farmer.

ne day when Adrian Ewins had 10 minutes to spare, he rattled off the opening page of a novel, à la Raymond Chandler. The pages are lost in Western Producer dust now, but they had the mystery writer’s same wry descriptions: “The blonde sashayed into my office like yesterday’s news and gave me a smile I could feel in my hip pocket.” Adrian could write. Write well. Write quickly. Clearly, succinctly, professionally. News was his medium, but his skills could have taken him anywhere. That it brought him to the Producer, where he stayed for more than 30 years, is an advantage this newspaper has, and will always have, over any other. We lost Adrian on Sept. 22, just as autumn began. Cancer, a foe that he had battled for 22 years, took him from us. He fought that disease while writing about Saskatchewan Wheat Pool machinations, railway reports, farm rallies, the demise of the Crow Rate, the mergers of prairie grain co-operatives and all manner of agricultural controversies that have unfolded in recent history. His wry, verbal comments on the issues and people he wrote about caused frequent laughter in the newsroom. It helped all of us keep things in perspective and provided gentle camaraderie in a place that has its unique stresses. But for all his witticisms, Adrian was a professional, a journalist to whom the highest compliment was that a story was fair and accurate. Such compliments were many. The Producer gave wind to his sails in the early part of his career here. Later, it was the anchor that held him steady when the ravages of cancer made other aspects of his life so precarious. We, his colleagues, watched his fight. We celebrated remissions and in the past year we learned the steely strength of Adrian’s will and dedication. Adrian would laugh at that, and tell us not to be melodramatic. He’d have made a joke about allowing a column to become maudlin. But he’d have to agree — he must know — the fairness and accuracy of this: he was part of the soul of this place, this newspaper, and we will miss him every day.

ROOT PROBLEM

tell the whole story. I did not see any Saskatchewan Party MLAs at the CWB meeting. One would never expect to see federal agricultural minister (Gerry) Ritz or MP David Anderson at a CWB meeting. They do not wish to see the overwhelming evidence that the CWB has to be protected at all costs. Why do these politicians not see the light? There are elected members on the CWB board who were staunchly anti-wheat board until they were elected and had the opportunity to learn how much good the CWB does for farmers. The philosopher John Stewart Mill observed that conservatives are stupid and I started off with Toffler’s commentary on the inability to think

by some people. I leave it to you, the reader, to figure out which philosopher has the best assessment of this situation. Lorne Jackson, Riverhurst, Sask.

FIRST LEADER To the Editor: Re: Aug. 4, The Western Producer, page 10, National View by Barry Wilson. I believe that it was Mr. M.J. Coldwell from Saskatchewan who was the first federal leader of the Canadian Commonwealth Federation (CCF) party.

The first time Tommy Douglas was elected federally (in 1935) to represent the Weyburn area constituency, he represented two political parties. The people in the Weyburn constituency at that time wanted a change from the Liberals and the Conservatives. They thought that if they ran one good candidate instead of two, that they might get the one good candidate elected. Tommy Douglas was chosen as the best choice as a candidate for both parties to beat the Liberals and the Conservatives in the coming federal election, which he did in the election and represented the Weyburn constituency in the federal government in Ottawa. Once Douglas was in Ottawa, Cold-

well and Stanley Knowles convinced him that he should be in the CCF party, as one of the parties that he was representing was the CCF party. Douglas held the federal Weyburn constituency seat until he became premier of Saskatchewan with the CCF party, forming the first CCF provincial government in Canada. Douglas Chalmers, Victoria, B.C.

NDP CHALLENGE To the Editor: For several days in August,NDP supporters, members, and elected

I appreciate the single desk concept, which provides a collective power to address both railway and grain company inequities. However, a vote for dual marketing is an opportunity to get away from pooling, which is the heart and soul of the Canadian Wheat Board. Pooling constrains the CWB as any creative PPO (Producer Payment Option) must first protect the pooling accounts. I believe this is the root of the problem today. I would welcome a single desk that offered a transparent daily price reflective of the export market at port (rather than land locked Minneapolis), coupled with a basis to facilitate transportation. I want to know the price before I commit grain to a sale, and I don’t want to use PPOs that have pooling account costs and risks. Farmer resistance to selling is missing from our present system as the board has two mandates: a) get the most it can for our product, and b) move the product. The board cannot lock the bins as we can. I want to see the CWB directors overhaul the system and provide a real solution to this complex, archaic structure but I fear it is too late.

WHICH ASSESSMENT? To the Editor: “Tomorrow’s illiterate will not be the man who can’t read, he will be the man who has not learned how to learn,” futurist and author Alvin Toffler has said. He has also said, “the illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.” I had a conversation with a Saskatchewan Party member of the legislature to find out where he stood in the Canadian Wheat Board debate. Even in the face of evidence that the CWB puts hundreds of millions of dollars in farmers’ pockets he still listed numbers to support his antiCWB position. I was taken aback. Maybe I was wrong to be a CWB supporter. I googled the United States Department of Agriculture on the internet. I phoned several elevator managers in the United States for more information. I went to the CWB meeting held in Regina. The best I can figure out is he selected numbers to support his ideology but they certainly did not access=subscriber section=opinion,none,none

OPINION representatives were in mourning and also basking in the publicity surrounding Jack Layton’s passing. While Harper’s offer of a state funeral seemed to be an act of compassion, generosity, and respect, in my view it was also a clever strategic move. Quebecers especially will see him as a generous and good person and will remember him at the next federal election. Canada’s financial elite no doubt see Layton’s passing as a blessing. For them, the NDP is now a lesser threat. They are quite content with a system that allows the rich to get richer while the poor get poorer. One may be sure that they will make every effort to use their abundant resources, which include the mass information media, to belittle, discredit, and embarrass NDP members of Parliament in the eyes of Canadians. NDP MPs will face an awesome challenge that will include the temptation to

move to the right…in order to retain their seats at the next election. Should the financial elite succeed in luring the New Democratic Party to the right, then the current situation in Ottawa will go down in history as a flash in the pan instead of a move toward the more just and better Canada that socialists like Tommy Douglas, Stephen Lewis, and Jack Layton envisioned.

Grain industry will prosper; Government shooting first asking questions later; Short lines nervous; Australian visitors. The Canadian taxpayer may finally find out this fall what the price of ideology is. Half a billion? $10 billion? How much are you willing to pay? It seems the Conservative government has no idea how much it will cost to get rid of the Canadian Wheat Board. Milton Boyd, a University of Manitoba economist, states “private sector investment in new varieties... higher yielding, lower protein may be more profitable” and “in contrast to the fewer varieties higher protein, lower yielding now favoured by the board.” He doesn’t get that the varieties offered by CWB command a premium because the bread or pasta company buying them knows they will perform in the recipe exactly the

same way time after time after time. What if companies worldwide sue for broken long-term contracts? What if Canadian farmers discover like the Australians did that they face years of uncertainty and losses and sue the government for losses incurred for X number of years, after the fact? What if the short-line rails face losses and go out of business and municipalities sue for road damage from the now thousands of trucks damaging their roads? What if farmers are limited by weight restrictions to how much grain they can ship on rural roads, and who will pay the extra costs? What if farmers have to sue to gain access to the privately held grain terminals? So many what ifs! This doesn’t seem to be a well thought-out plan. Dianne McCollum, Dunnville, Ont.

emember the old barn raisings where the whole community sprung into action when a family was faced with an emergency? There was the gathering of supplies, the organizing of volunteers, the food brigade and the first aid tent. Annie Lamott, in her book Traveling Mercies, remembered this activity when she witnessed a tragedy that befell a family in the neighbourhood. Their neighbour’s daughter, Olivia, always had fragile health. Each cold or respiratory condition landed her in the hospital for a couple of weeks. It wasn’t until she was seven that the doctor diagnosed cystic fibrosis. Regularly, with this condition, the patient’s lungs fill with a thick sludge that harbours infections. Twice a day these individuals have to be pounded between the shoulder blades for 45 minutes to dislodge the mucous. The routine of the affected household is turned upside down. In addition to the financial drain, parents can easily burn out. This is where the barn raising imagery takes over. Others can help with the shopping, the cleaning, walking the dog, and the fundraising. Some are good at helping each of the parents find a break, though all try to hold back to ensure they don’t intrude on family privacy. And they help each other find ways to be with the family without trying to instill empty messages of false hope. The network of barn builders grows: some offer to help with the physical gifts of caring. Others have the spiritual gifts that may encourage tears and the need to talk. Just as the neighbours of old helped build barns to ensure shelter against harsh conditions, Lamott writes, “We, their friends, all know the rains and the winds will come, and they will be cold…. But we will be building this barn all along, and so there will always be shelter.” access=subscriber section=opinion,none,none

Ag-West Bio Inc. hopes a new study will help Saskatchewan’s industrial oilseeds industry take flight. The organization has received $150,000 from the federal government to assess the feasibility of using camelina and Brassica carinata to produce renewable jet fuel. The study will evaluate the ability to profitably produce the two industrial oilseed crops, the feasibility of creating a crushing and processing industry that will create drop-in jet biofuel and what type of logistics and infrastructure would be needed to get the product to market. Drop-in fuels are those that can replace existing petroleum products using the same refining, storage and distribution networks. “With the aviation industry committed to developing sustainable biofuels, there appears to be huge potential in this area, both for producers and for the province as a whole in downstream processing,” said Mike Cey, vice-president of corporate and business development for Ag-West. The airline industry hopes to find an alternative fuel to reduce its carbon footprint and help eliminate the wild fuel price spikes that are pinching profits. The International Air Transport Association and a number of airlines have stated a goal to be carbon neutral by 2020. In July, the American Society for Testing Materials, the organization responsible for worldwide fuel specifications, approved the use of up to a 50 percent biofuel blend for jet fuel. That has created a potential annual market for more than four billion litres of jet biofuel made from nonfood crops or algae. But a lot of work is needed to make industrial oilseed crops profitable to grow, process and use in the airline industry. The industry has the backing of U.S. president Barack Obama. His government is investing up to $510 million over the next three years to encourage the production of drop-in aviation and marine biofuels. The United States Department of Agriculture will address the feedstocks, the Department of Energy will develop the processing technology and the Department of the Navy will provide a market for the fuel. The funding requires at least a oneto-one match from private industry, which would result in more than $1 billion to develop a jet biofuel industry in the U.S. versus $150,000 to study it in Canada. The spending discrepancy doesn’t necessarily mean the U.S. is going to leave Canada in the dust, like it did with ethanol and biodiesel. “You could argue that the Americans tend to get ahead of themselves,” said Cey. He said Saskatchewan is well positioned to play a big role in the jet biofuel industry because the province has a huge arable land base for access=subscriber section=news,ag_finance,none

growing industrial crops and the Americans have expressed interest in sourcing industrial oilseed from this region. “Probably the biggest thing we have going for us is that we have the opportunity to control the potential feedstock supply,” said Cey. With 45 million acres of arable land Saskatchewan can devote space to growing industrial oilseeds on marginal lands. “That does make us unique compared to lots of other jurisdictions in North America. We have options,” he said. Saskatchewan is leading in develop-

Camelina is the most tested industrial oil for jet biofuel but Cey thinks Brassica carinata could provide stiff competition. “It may turn out to be the most desirable industrial oil of them all.” Kevin Hursh, executive director of the Saskatchewan Mustard Development Commission, is pleased that Ag-West is exploring this new oilseed market. “Mustard producers have invested research money into the develop-

ment of carinata as a cropping option, but we need to know that the crop can be profitable for producers, as well as segments of the value chain,” he said. Cey said the airlines and U.S. military have established clear parameters for jet biofuel. It has to be a dropin fuel, it has to be affordable due to tight margins in the airline industry and there has to be a sustainable and predictable supply of the fuel. Those considerations will be part of the Ag-West Bio report, which is

scheduled to be completed by June 30, 2012. In the meantime, Cey said producers should stay tuned for the first Canadian test flight using cropbased jet biofuel. “That will probably be happening sooner rather than later.” One of the members of Ag-West’s steering committee for the project is WestJet. Cey is confident the test flight will prove to be a pivotal point in stimulating public interest in the project.

SEPTEMBER PRO VALUES MIXED

Small crop could generate good basis

The September Pool Return Outlook from the Canadian Wheat Board shows mixed prices, reflecting tightness of supply, but also the market decline in recent weeks as the world confronts the possibility of another recession. Wheat values are varied, ranging from up $5 per tonne to down $7 from last month, depending on class, grade and protein level. Generally, high protein, quality wheat values fell because supply is turning out better than expected. Lower protein, mid to low-quality wheat rose because of increased demand from livestock feeders looking for alternatives to expensive corn. Milling durum values fell by $2 to $11 per tonne, hurt by expectation of a large, quality Canadian crop and a falling euro, which makes European durum more competitive. Malting barley rose $2 and feed barley values were unchanged.

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Next winter and spring could see some good deals for farmers’ grain in much of Manitoba and other floodplagued parts of the Prairies. Grain brokers say elevators, crushers and livestock feeders are beginning to offer attractive basis levels in areas where there’s little local crop. “Demand hasn’t changed, but local supplies have,” said Jon Driedger of FarmLink Marketing Solutions about the Manitoba situation. “There’s a lot smaller pool of crop than there usually is.” Every fall certain delivery points offer better basis levels if they need to

buy in crop. Buyers may want to buy up supplies of a small local crop or they might be planning unusually high use at a particular point. But this year, the crop will be short in many areas, with a small harvest in most of southwestern Manitoba, and low yields in large parts of central and eastern Manitoba. Southeastern Saskatchewan has similar problems. High fusarium levels in Manitoba feed wheat are compounding the problem by making the grain unusable for hogs. Feed brokers say Hutterite colonies in Manitoba are trying to bring in replacement feed from Saskatchewan so they don’t get caught short late in the winter.

With harvest in full swing and a lot of crop flowing into commercial grain elevators for quick cash or for storage reasons, present basis levels are not exceptional. But brokers say basis for deferred months are likely to get narrower. As grain moves over the winter, local deficits will get worse and buyers will probably want to begin covering their needs. Driedger said one buyer he spoke to was offering a $15-under basis for March delivery of canola, but said they would offer a better basis if they could be guaranteed large shipments. c c e sthey s = aren’t s u b the s conly r i bones er “Ia suspect section=markets,none,none in that boat,” said Driedger.

WEATHER | ARGENTINA

Rain may bring relief to parched Argentine farms BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) — Rains forecast to sweep into much of Argentina’s farming belt this week were expected to bring relief to thirsty wheat crops and allow corn seeding to pick up its pace. Concern is growing over dryness in Argentina, which is being affected by the La Nina weather phenomenon for a second straight year, although forecasters do not expect its impact to be as severe this season. The U.S. Department of Agriculture

forecasts the wheat crop at 13.5 million tonnes. That Sept. 12 projection looks upbeat compared to Argentina’s agriculture ministry’s recent forecast for production of between 11 million and 13 million tonnes, which cited the dry weather. Soy plantings start in earnest in October and some industry analysts have said farmers may turn over land originally earmarked for corn to the oilseed if the dryness drags on. Recent rains have improved mois-

ture levels although some wheat crops still urgently need water, said Jose Luis Aiello, director of the Applied Climatology Consultancy, based in Buenos Aires. Aiello said storms this week would provide good amounts of moisture. “At the moment, the eastern crop region is fine. But there’s starting to be a shortage of soil water reserves in northwestern Buenos Aires, western Santa Fe, Cordoba, La Pampa and in the northwest of the country.”

U.S. HARVEST | CROPS

Crop falls short of expectations in northern U.S. prairies Yield, quality falls in North Dakota | Wet planting conditions and excess rainfall hindered crop development during the growing season BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

In August, Keith Deutsch thought he was looking at a good to very good durum crop on his farm near Plaza, North Dakota. But when Deutsch combined his 400 acres of durum in September, the volume of grain in the hopper was discouraging. “It was pretty disappointing. The yields were down and the quality wasn’t what we expected either,” said Deutsch, who farms southwest of

M i n o t , N . D. “ It l o o k e d l i k e i t should’ve been that 40 to 50 bushel (per acre) crop…. There was a lot of straw but the heads just (didn’t) fill as good as they should have.” In the end, Deutsch’s durum crop yielded 20 to 25 bu. per acre, down significantly from 2009 and 2010 when he had yields in the 40s to 50s. Although it’s little comfort for Deutsch, many durum and spring wheat crops throughout North Dakota looked promising a month ago, but yielded poorly when producers combined the cereals.

Across the state, average durum yields will likely be in the high 20s to low 30s, said Erica Olson, marketing specialist with the North Dakota Wheat Commission. In addition to poor yields, Deutsch said North Dakota growers will harvest about half of the acres forecast in the spring, because farmers couldn’t get seeding equipment on soaked fields this year. Back in March, the U.S. Department of Agriculture expected producers in the state to plant 1.6 million acres of durum. In 2010, North Dako-

ta had 1.8 million acres of durum. On his farm, Deutsch normally seeds 900 acres, but got less than half of that in the ground. “I think I got about 60 percent (of his total acreage) seeded,” he said. “But I should’ve quit sooner because the last stuff didn’t amount to anything…. It got too wet and it didn’t even come up.” Like durum, spring wheat crops yields are down in North Dakota this fall. Spring wheat is expected to yield about 30 to 40 bu. per acre, Olson said.

Looking at long-term averages, spring wheat yields 36 to 38 bu. per acre in North Dakota, she said. “It’s not a disaster, but some producers saw yields at half of what they had last year. It’s more the shock of coming off of two record yield years.” It’s hard to know precisely why wheat plants produced foliage but not grain this year, but Deutsch said the likely culprit is wet weather. “We got a couple of rains every week (throughout the summer),” said Deutsch, president of the U.S. Durum Growers Association. “We couldn’t even get in to spray. A lot of (producers) had airplanes spray.” As an example of excess precipitation in the state, 235 millimetres of rain fell on Bismarck in July and August. Normally, Bismarck receives 123 mm of rain in the two summer months. Deutsch said wet planting conditions and excess rainfall in the summer hindered crop development, because the plants failed to develop proper roots and didn’t pull up the necessary nutrients during the growing season. In spite of the sopping conditions in most of the state, canola yields were close to average this year. The USDA estimated canola to average 1,600 to 1,700 pounds per acre (32 to 34 bu. per acre) in North Dakota, which is close to the typical yield for the state. Barry Coleman, Northern Canola Growers Association, said harvested canola acreage will be 850,000 in 2011, compared to 1.33 million acres in 2010, because hundreds of thousands of acres were drowned out in the spring, especially in the northwest corner of the state. Looking at the brighter side, North Dakota canola growers with a crop in the bin are content, Coleman said. “A lot growers are quite happy because they (are) seeing a lot of black ink with the decent prices and decent yields.”

WHEAT EXPORTS | RUSSIA

Russia wheat sales may put squeeze on U.S. shipments Seeking new markets | Traders expect to see Russia making inroads into Asia, the Far East and Mexico, cutting into U.S. market share HAMBURG, LONDON (Reuters) — Russian wheat exporters aim to increase sales to emerging markets, such as South America, due to their cheap price advantage. Millions of tonnes of low-priced Russian wheat have surged onto global markets since Russia ended a near year-long grain export ban in July, sweeping aside competitors including those from Europe and the United States. While top quality Russian milling wheat is making inroads into nontraditional markets for food-grade wheat, lower grades of Russian wheat are also emerging as alternatives to

high-priced corn in animal feeding rations. “There is very little doubt that Russian wheat will again be sold way beyond its traditional markets in the Middle East in the coming months. I think we will see more sales to Asia and the Far East and more sales to Central and South America,” an unnamed European trader said. “We saw this process developing pretty spectacularly in the first half of 2010 with sales from the Russian 2009 crop suddenly being sold to Japan, the Caribbean and consumers in the Americas like Peru and Central America where it had not been seen

before,” he said, adding that a grain export ban by Moscow that lasted nearly a year had stopped that drive. Another trader expected sales to Asia to pick up especially to poor countries such as Bangladesh. “In the coming months we will see increasing Russian sales to big importers like South Korea, Thailand and Indonesia,” the trader said. “Australia and Canada could find they will suffer. Several Asian countries such as Japan and Taiwan are suspected of buying U.S. wheat to keep their trade deficits with the U.S. down so the U.S. might have a little advantage here.”

U.S. grain players said they were keeping an eye on Russian grain exports, but were not overly concerned about shipments from the low-cost supplier cutting into U.S. market share in Latin America and the Caribbean. Russian milling wheat prices at Black Sea ports were at a discount to U.S. wheat prices, but the higher cost of shipping the grain from Russia to the Americas more than offsets that cost savings. Competitive prices for feed wheat shipments from Russia have prompted talk of potential sales into Mexico or other regional importers of U.S.

corn, but no deals have been confirmed. Feed wheat prices at Russian ports were around $255 to $260 per tonne FOB, while corn at U.S. Gulf Coast export terminals was near $300 per tonne FOB, traders said last week. Traders in the U.S. estimated the cost of shipping to many Latin American markets would be about $15 to $20 per tonne cheaper from the United States. “If they could capture those markets from the U.S., clearly there would be a tonne mile effect,” said Mark Williams, research manager with broker Braemar Seascope.

Balmy forecast for Prairies due to La Nina

Advice well-grounded.

BY JOHN B. PLUCK SASKATOON NEWSROOM

As harvesting winds down during the next few weeks, prairie farmers can expect warmer than usual temperatures and below average precipitation for this time of year. Drew Lerner, president of World Weather, Inc., believes the weather pattern will start to change in late autumn. He said the warm weather conditions should continue in the first half of October, with increased precipitation occurring in late October and into November. During winter, Alberta, southern Saskatchewan and southern Manitoba are expected to receive above average snowfall as a result of the La Nina weather pattern. Lerner believes La Nina weather will continue into spring. If this occurs, it will make temperatures colder than normal next spring, said Lerner, who believes that soil moisture will be back to normal levels then. La Nina weather conditions generally last from eight to 12 months. However, some La Nina weather patterns have existed for two to three years, said Lerner. He said if rainfall levels increase over the next few weeks, prairie farmers can expect a mostly good winter wheat crop next spr ing because there will be enough snow cover created by La Nina to protect the it. He expects enough moisture to remain in the soil to stimulate early spring development. “The good news is…(La Nina) has… virtually no real effect on the fall and maybe even early winter. It tends to (have) a mid-winter to spring effect on the Prairies,” said David Phillips, senior climatologist with Environment Canada. Phillips believes the expected increase in snowfall will not hurt grain farmers in the spring. La Nina occurs when colder than normal equatorial eastern Pacific Ocean temperatures are experienced, which causes widespread weather changes.

Pig tracking to start this year BY JOHN B. PLUCK SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The Canadian Pork Council is moving closer to implementation of its pig tracking system. Since 2006, the council has been working on its multi-stage system. Jeff Clarke, manager of the Pig Trace Canada program, is optimistic about the council starting voluntary data collection of pig movement from producers later this year. Clarke said the system is a repository for pig movement in the event a food contamination or foreign animal disease situation arises. The aim is to use the database to assist animal health officials in tracing the origins of contamination

within the pig population. The sw ine tracking system is designed requires both the shipper and receiver of swine to report to the council, said Clarke. “There (are) three main components to any traceability system,” said Clarke. The identification of locations that house pigs, the identification of animals with tatoos, tags or some other identification system, and the actual movement tracking. The movement tracking entails gathering information on the origin of the animals. their final destination, and dates of loading and unloading. The livestock operators provide the plate number of the transport unit and the number of animals being moved.

Golden fibre brings hope to Bangladeshi farmers DHAKA, Bangladesh (Reuters) — Ambia Khatun, a widowed mother of two, spent the entire day plucking jute. But as the sun began to sink she finally called her son and daughter to help her clean the raw fibre and spread it out to dry near their home. Once dry, she will take the jute to a nearby market to sell, buy essential provisions and save the rest of the money. “We are getting good prices this

year,” the 45-year-old said, adding that 40 kilograms of jute, popularly known as golden fibre, are going for twice what they did a year ago. Long a key export crop in impoverished Bangladesh, jute, a fibre derived from reed-like plants, fell from favour as demand for cheap synthetics soared. But now it is seeing a broad international renaissance for use in shopping bags to replace polythene, which is non-biodegradable and

harmful to the environment. Polythene bags, with roughly one million used each day in Bangladesh alone, choke drains, canals and small rivers, polluting them beyond use. Bangladesh has banned the use of polythene bags and ordered they be replaced by jute bags but the rule is often violated. Jute, Bangladesh’s second main crop after rice, grows in the monsoon, fed by rain. It is strong enough to stand out in the rush of water that often floods much of the country and becomes a source of cash for farmers hoping to ease their poverty. “Higher price and better yield have encouraged many villagers to increase cultivation of jute,” said Mujibur Rahman, a 67-year-old farmer. “Besides cash, it gives them an option to use dried jute plants for cooking and putting up fences in their homes.” Once Bangladesh’s top export, jute, also used for making ropes, sacks and packaging, lost its traditional lustre over the past couple of decades amid the rise of cheaper synthetics. As exports plunged, Bangladeshi jute mills suffered huge losses, forcing authorities to shut down many factories, throwing thousands of workers out of jobs. Among them was Asia’s biggest jute mill, the Adamjee Jute Mills, at Narayanganj, an industrial town near Dhaka. Authorities laid off its more than 16,000 workers by paying oneoff compensation and overdue wages, but most of those workers are still jobless, struggling for survival. The present government of prime minister Sheikh Hasina has reopened 10 jute mills since taking office in early 2009 and hopes to pull up the shutters on a few more mills still closed as the demand for jute and jute good continues to rise. Although many old workers have been re-employed, such a fate does not await those at Adamjee, where the buildings were demolished. Authorities even sold off its land. Overall, though, the jute industry is now in good shape and looking to a brighter future, officials in the Bangladesh Jute Mills Corporation said. Export earnings from jute and jute goods reached $1.2 billion in the fiscal year ended in June, 2011, up more than 160 percent from three years ago, a senior BJMC official said. Exports have also shown a steady rise. The country made $417 million from sale of raw jute and jute goods in the fiscal 2008-09 and $787 million in fiscal 2009-10, the official said. “We have set an export target for jute of $1.34 billion in the year to June 2012,” said Jalal Ahmed, chief executive officer of the state-run Bangladesh Export Promotion Bureau. “The prospects for jute are becoming brighter day by day as many countries now are determined to stop the use of polythene and instead focusing on the use of environment friendly natural fibre.” Jalal said Bangladesh exports 80 percent of the total global demand for jute and ranks second to India among world’s jute producing countries.

Revival in jute | A ban on polythene bags in many countries has sparked a resurgence in jute cultivation, giving many poor Bangladeshi farmers extra income second largest export earner for Bangladesh, after ready-made garments that account for nearly 80 percent of the country’s total annual exports worth $23 billion. Bangladesh exports jute and jute goods to Turkey and India, as well as some European and African nations. But one of the biggest problems is middlemen who buy jute from farmers to supply the mills, paying the farmers lower prices.

“We are aware of the difference (of price) but accept it because we cannot travel to the main purchase hubs that are often far from our villages,” said Ataur Rahman, a jute grower in Bogra, 300 km north of Dhaka. In general, though, farmers are pleased at the revival of demand. “We are happy as the price is higher than production cost,” said Mohammad Salahuddin, a farmer in the east of the country.

HERBICIDES | WEEDS

Super weeds grow resistant to herbicid EPA and USDA farm tour will examine problems in wheat | Weed resistance costs in agriculture are pegged at nearly $1 billion, PAOL A , Kansas (REUTERS) — Mark Nelson bends down and yanks a waist-high weed from his northeastern Kansas soybean field. The “waterhemp” towers above his soybeans, sucking up soil moisture and nutrient, reducing the yield. As he crumples the flowering end of the weed in his hand, he grimaces. “When we harvest this field, these waterhemp seeds will spread all over kingdom come,” he said. Nelson’s struggle to control weeds is being repeated all over the U.S. An estimated 11 million acres are infested with so-called super weeds, some of which grow several inches in a day and defy even multiple applications of the world’s top-selling herbicide, Roundup. The gradual emergence of these resistant weeds has masked what some call a growing menace. The weeds increase costs and cut crop yields, and, as farmers take added steps to get rid of the pests and use of more herbicides to fight the weeds, it is sparking environmental concerns. With food prices near record highs and a growing population straining global grain supplies, the world cannot afford diminished crop production, nor added environmental problems. “I’m convinced that this is a big problem,” said Dave Mortensen, professor of weed and applied plant ecology at Penn State University, who has been helping lobby members of the U.S. Congress about the implications of weed resistance. “Most of the public doesn’t know because the industry is calling the shots on how this should be spun,” Mortensen said. Last month, representatives from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Agriculture and the Weed Science Society of America toured the Midwest crop belt to see for themselves the impact of rising weed resistance. “It is only going to get worse,” said Lee Van Wychen, director of science policy at the Weed Science Society of America. At t h e h e a r t o f t h e m a t t e r i s Monsanto, the world’s biggest seed company and the maker of Roundup. Monsanto has revolutionized row crop agriculture through sales of Roundup and “Roundup Ready” crops, which are genetically modified to tolerate treatment with Roundup. The Roundup Ready system has helped farmers grow more corn, soybeans, canola, cotton and other crops while reducing detrimental soil tillage practices, killing weeds easily and cheaply. But the system has also encouraged farmers to alter time-honoured crop rotation practices and the mix of herbicides that previously had kept weeds in check. And now, farmers are finding that rampant weed resistance is setting them back, making it harder to keep growing corn year in and year out, even when rotating it occasionally with soybeans. Farmers also have to change their mix and volume of chemicals, makaccess=subscriber section=news,crops,none

ing farming more costly. For Monsanto, it spells a threat to the company’s market strength as rivals smell an opportunity and are racing to introduce alternatives for Roundup and Roundup Ready seeds. “You’ve kind of been in a Roundup Ready era,” said Tom Wiltrout, a global strategy leader at Dow AgroSciences, which is introducing an herbicide and seed system called Enlist as an alternative to Roundup. “This just allows us to candidly get out from the Monsanto story,” he said. Gilford Securities analyst Paul Christopherson last month reiterated a “sell” recommendation on Monsanto’s shares, citing Monsanto’s “overdependence” on glyphosate and Roundup Ready crops, calling glyphosate resistance by weeds a “big and growing phenomenon.” Monsanto officials say they are asking farmers to use different types of herbicides to fight weeds, but insist that Roundup remains effective for most farmers. Still, company spokesperson Tom Helscher said weed resistance was a “wake-up call for all U.S. farmers.” “We have a shared responsibility and we’re committed to working with farmers to take the steps necessary to ensure that glyphosate continues to be an effective weed control tool for many years to come,” Helscher said in a statement. To fight the resistant weeds, farmers are using stronger dousings of glyphosate, as well as other harsh chemicals that have sparked concern among environmental and public health groups. Nelson, for example, has been a fan of Roundup since Monsanto introduced Roundup Ready soybeans and corn in the 1990s. For years, he needed no other herbicides for his

2,000 acres, marvelling at how easily Roundup wiped out weeds. He often did not even use the full concentration recommended. Now Nelson uses several pesticides and sprays his fields multiple times to try to control waterhemp, which can grow eight feet tall and can be toxic to livestock. He uses the maximum amount of Roundup along with other herbicides including 2,4-D. “Just spraying Roundup was so easy,” he said. “There is no ease anymore.” Economic blow In Ohio, the nightmare weed for farmer John Davis is marestail, an annual weed that grows well in key crop-growing areas of the U.S. Midwest and which is resistant to glyphosate and other herbicides. “I see marestail in my sleep,” said Davis, president of the Ohio Corn Growers organization. “I have spent a significant amount of dollars trying to control marestail until I realized I was not going to control marestail.” Davis calls the weed resistance problem a “major economic blow” to his farming operation. Some farmers have resorted to hiring crews to weed fields by hand, and some are returning to tilling their fields, a practice that contributes to soil erosion. “We are at a disturbing juncture,” said Margaret Mellon, director of the food and environment program at the Union of Concerned Scientists. “The use of toxic chemicals in agriculture is skyrocketing. This is not the path to sustainability.” Mortensen said farmer efforts to control resistant weeds are estimated to cost nearly $1 billion a year and result in a 70 percent increase in pes-

ticide use by 2015. Since Monsanto introduced its glyphosate resistant crops, 21 weed species have evolved to resist the herbicide, up from none in 1995. The list is growing by one to two species per year, Mortensen said. Farmers and crop experts say that when superweeds take root, yield reductions of one to two bushels per acre are common, even with extra pesticide doses. With soybeans at more than $14 a bushel, a 1,000 acre farm might lose more than $20,000 to weeds on top of the costs of the added pesticides. Then there are the environmental woes. A U.S. government study released last month gave evidence that glyphosate is also polluting the air and waterways. The chemical was found in waterways through Mississippi and Iowa, according to the report issued in August by the U.S. Geological Survey Office, a part of the U.S. Department of the Interior. The USGS said more than 88,000 tons of glyphosate was used in 2007, up from 11,000 tons in 1992. “This is a big problem that actually does threaten the ability of nations to feed their people. It needs a fair amount of research and studies dedicated to it,” said Iowa agronomist Bob Streit. Streit is among a group of scientists who believe glyphosate is actually harming the plants it is supposed to protect by tying up nutrients in the soil the plants need. The group has lobbied regulators to rein in use of glyphosate. The Environmental Protection Agency has started a review of the safety and efficacy of glyphosate and is considering the arguments of critics and the findings of the USGS study.

“EPA considers all relevant information in its review,” said an EPA spokesperson. “We will be evaluating it as part of the glyphosate review.” EPA plans to propose a decision in 2014 and issue a final registration review decision for glyphosate in 2015.

GM wheat to undergo trials in U.K. LONDON (Reuters) — Britain’s farm ministry has granted approval for a research trial in 2012 and 2013 on genetically modified wheat which is resistant to aphids. “The research is on wheat that has been genetically modified to resist aphids, which are a pest in wheat crops,” the ministry said in a statement last week. Genetically modified crops are grown widely in many parts of the world including the United States, Argentina, China and Brazil. There are, however, currently no GM crops grown commercially in Britain where they have struggled to win consumer acceptance. Some scientists backed the government’s decision. “We need to remain open-minded to every technology if we are going to successfully tackle the challenges of food security,” said Tina Barsby, chief executive of the National Institute of Agricultural Botany. “This experiment will allow British scientists to properly evaluate resistance to an agricultural pest that is highly destructive to wheat stocks worldwide.” The decision was condemned by a leading anti-GM group. “The key question ministers need to answer is why they are funding research into GM wheat for which there is no market in the U.K., Europe or anywhere else when other areas of proven, less risky agricultural research, such as agroecology, are crying out for additional funds,” Peter Riley of GM Freeze said in a statement. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

For Monsanto, the weed resistance problem is more significant than the recent concerns raised about possible insect resistance developing to Monsanto’s corn seed, said Gabelli & Co. analyst Amon Wilkes.

Wilkes remains bullish on Monsanto’s prospects. While he sees competition to Roundup as a potential problem, he noted the company has been moving to introduce new products.

“You always have to be continually innovating. Monsanto is doing that.” Monsanto insists that the Roundup Ready crops and herbicide system has long-term value and that any

rivals will also run the risk of triggering weed resistance. “The benefits of glyphosate-tolerant crops have been real for farmers and the environment,” said Monsanto’s Helscher.

Fueling fuel savings: best practices Carbon footprint | Different seeding systems, crops, tillage practices all play a role BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Fuel savings in zero tillage operations are a given because of fewer trips over the land, but an applied research project in Lethbridge seeks to put hard numbers to those savings. Farming Smarter, also known as the Southern Applied Research Association, plans to continue studies on the carbon footprint of southern Alberta crop production but results from two years of data contain surprises. One of them was the negligible difference in fuel savings based on the type of opener used. “What we found, ironically, is that there was ver y little difference between a disc opener and a hoe opener. Conceptually, everybody thinks that a disc opener is going to pull easier,” said Growing Smarter agronomist Ken Coles. The research involved fuel use comparisons in seeding camelina, canola, barley and peas. An auxiliary fuel tank and a load cell between the tractor and seeder were used for the fuel measurement. Camelina was seeded at a oneeighth inch depth, canola at a half inch, barley at one to 1.5 and peas at two inches, in the same area and same moisture conditions, on May

13. Researchers used a plot seeder with Pillar laser disc hoe openers on nine-inch spacings. Each of the crops were planted on both cultivated and zero-till plots. “My intuition, and I think a lot of people’s intuition too, is once you’ve cultivated, you’ve loosened it up and it should be easier to seed through. Well, there was very little difference,” said Coles. He speculates that in cultivated soil, the tractor sinks more, making the seeder more difficult to pull. That uses more fuel. On the other hand, soil settles quickly, and producers might be able to use a lighter seeder in cultivated fields, so the difference might be moot, he said. In either case, shallow seeding tends to require less fuel. “Seeding depth is the neat story because it says that when you con-

serve the moisture, you can actually seed shallower because you’re not chasing the moisture,” Coles said. “It’s just another feather in the hat for the zero tillers in semi-arid areas where moisture is often a limiting factor.” The study showed that the deeper the seeder was set, the more horsepower was needed to pull it, regardless of seeding system. Research calculations showed fuel use for seeding in cultivated plots versus zero-tilled fields was approximately double. However, the latter production system may require additional passes for herbicide and fungicide treatments, depending on conditions, negating the difference. Cultivated plots required slightly less horsepower than zero-till plots although the difference was not significant, the report said. The next step was to apply data to carbon footprint calculations for each of the four crops. Researchers took fuel consumption data from seeding the four crops in each of the cultivated and zero tilled fields. They also calculated the energy footprint of fertilizer and herbicides used in the trial. “The carbon footprint refers to all of the fossil energies used in the pro-

duction of the crop. It begins with the energy associated with producing machinery, then the energy of fuel used for seeding, the energy of producing seed, seed treatments, applying herbicides and harvesting,” said the report. Those calculations produce a final energy number in joules per unit of crop, Coles explained. Peas have the lowest number. “When based on a sheer percentage basis, the fossil inputs for camelina, canola and barley are quite similar, regardless of production method,” said the study. “However, the peas are extremely different. This is due to a massive change in the amount of N required for production, as peas have rhizobium to fix their own nitrogen.” Coles sees that as a major selling point for pulses and for the producers who grow them. “It becomes a really good news story for pulse growers. If you are a pulse grower, you’re using less energy and anytime you use less energy, it’s usually a benefit to you. “And if you’re marketing your pulses or marketing all of your crops overseas to clients that are actually interested in that, tell them that you on your farm, you’re doing something better than Joe Blow down the road. “You never know, it might end up

giving a little bit of power to pulse growers in marketing.” Coles thinks energy use studies may help farmers in the future as they are called upon to defend their production practices. While government policy seems focused on value-added agricultural projects, there is no substitute for basic agronomic research that can lead to production gains. “The higher ups don’t see how improving agronomy improves our use of energy. Agronomy is really the science of energy efficiency so anytime you can improve crop production, it’s directly associated with fossil energy use.” “Anything we do to improve our crop production practices, and produce more crop with less, that’s energy efficiency.” access=subscriber section=production,none,none

WHEELS AND TIRES | SKID STEER

TRACK TIRES | MAINTENANCE

Clawdaddy’s solid core tire provides hours of traction

Poly won’t crack

Longer life | Clawdaddy can work for 6,000 hours, compared to 800 for regular tires STORIES BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

FARGO, N.D. — Farmers who have been stuck in their skid steer loaders know the value of aggressive tire treads. Yet many people run their skid steer tires until they’re bald. In fact, the solid rubber tires commonly used in construction, can be driven long past the point of baldness. Manufacturers bought into solid tire technology to reduce the time wasted fixing flats. But most solid tires lacked aggressive lugs and those people who drove their tires down to baldness ultimately found they had no traction at all. But now there’s an alternative that offers excellent traction in a solid core tire. At the Big Iron Show in Fargo, held Sept. 13 to 15 in Fargo, a company called Clawdaddy displayed a set of solid core skid steer tires with an aggressive lug design. At the centreline, the treads measure 3.5 inches deep. “We originally intended these for construction but about six years ago, we sort of stumbled into the ag market,” says Clawdaddy’s Rich Ilg. “We sold a set to a dairy farmer and told him they might last 2,000 hours. He was happy with that because he had been replacing skid steer tires every 800 hours. I guess 800 is about average in a dair y operation. “We didn’t hear from him for a couple years, then finally he came back for another set. The first set went to 6,000 hours. Since then, we’ve had a lot of comments from farmers who get 6,000 hours or more.” Ilg said the deep treads are achieved by putting the tire on a smaller diameter rim. He said Clawdaddy treads average twice as deep as competing skidsteer tires. “Nearly ever y OEM skid steer comes with solid-flex or brawler style tire. The tire is glued permanently to the rim. When the tire wears out, the whole unit goes to the dump. That’s expensive and wasteful. “Clawdaddy uses a three-piece pressed wheel that customers use over and over. “We use a 200 ton press to disassemble the rim and remove the old tire. Then we press on the new tire and press the rim back together again.” The tires go to recycling and the wheels are good for the life of the skid steer. The rims are available with the six, eight or 10 bolt patterns. Clawdaddy solid rubber tires with the deep lugs come in two sizes. The 10 x 16.5 cost $3,450 for a set of four. The larger 12 x 16.5 cost $3,650 for a set of four. For more information, contact Rich Ilg at rich@flt-online.com or www. flt-online.com. access=subscriber section=crops,none,none

Polyurethane tires handle heat better than rubber FARGO, N.D. — Driving a rubber tracked tractor from field to field on asphalt roads can be costly on rubber bogie wheels. The rubber heats up and breaks down, scattering chunks of rubber on the highway. At a cost of $500 or more per bogie, it might have been smarter to go slow on some back road. Caterpillar recognized the problem years ago and offered steel bogie wheels to farmers who would spend significant time on the road. But steel bogies didn’t perform as well in the field as rubber ones. Butler Machinery in Fargo came up with a solution that not only works well in both situations, but is less expensive, says Dale Norman, Butler parts manager. Interviewed at the Challenger owners at the Big Iron Show, Nordman said that polyurethane tires eliminate the problem, and perform well on both asphalt and in the field. “The polyurethane we use is a synthetic that’s designed to withstand continuous high temperatures,” he says. “We’ve had them on the market for about a year now and there haven’t been any problems. I’m sure poly will eventually break down also, but it’ll take a lot longer. “There’s nothing at all wrong with rubber bogies as long as you stay off asphalt and concrete.” Pricing varies between models, but Nordman says polyurethane bogie wheels from the manufacturer for an 800 series machine cost $600 each. That’s toward the high end of the price list because the 800 has such a access=subscriber section=crops,none,none

Dale Nordman advises upgrading to polyurethane bogies if the rubber track Challenger spends a significant amount of time on hard surfaces. wide bogie. Butler also offers a swap out deal for farmers trading in used bogies with no damage to the wheels. For about $325 per wheel, the producer can get a re-built bogie with the polyurethane tire. Butler then sends trade-in bogies back to the plant where the rubber is melted off and the wheels are reconditioned and fitted with polyurethane tires.

PRECISION AG | KNOWING THE SOIL

Farmer makes the most out of the least Equipment modified | Autosteer added to planter to support mix of intercropping, no-till and controlled traffic agriculture BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — Imagine converting the poorest areas on the farm into the highest producing acres. Wade Mitchell doesn’t need to imagine it. He did it four years ago as a small-scale experiment on his 2,500 acre farm in east-central Iowa. Speaking at the InfoAg Precision Farming Conference in Illinois, Mitchell explained how his RTK equipped scraper scooped eroded topsoil from field drains and spread it uniformly on the tops of eroded knolls. Although he tried the technique on two different fields, one with a pair of knolls showed the greatest improvement. Each knoll measured 3.6 acres and had traditionally averaged only 16.5 bushels of soybeans per acre. The lowest yield was 5.15 bu., with the highest being less than 20 bu. They are designated as areas 4 and 5 on a coloured field map. Overall average for the whole field was 26 bu., with the best areas hitting 34.5 bu. After moving eroded soil from the surface drains to the eroded knolls, the soybean yield for the knolls exceeded 35 bu. access=subscriber section=crops,none,none

Moving soil from the surface drains to eroded knolls turned 16 bushel soybean land into 35 bushel soybean land. | “We started thinking about doing this experiment after looking at some aerial photos of the farm taken in the 1930s and the 1950s,” said Mitchell. “Those old photos showed thin areas that matched the low yields we’ve been seeing on our combine’s yield monitor. We wanted to see if there was something we could

do about it.” Mitchell pulled a number of soil samples, from eight inches down to 16 inches, creating an accurate soil profile of the two knolls. He also sampled the soil that had moved into their surface drains. This soil came from the central drain, designated as area 6.

The results were not surprising. The knolls were less than two percent organic matter. Area 6 was 4.2 percent organic matter. Cation exchange capacity was under 10.6 for the knolls and 23.1 for the good soil. Mitchell calculated how much good soil he needed to haul to the knolls. The soil lower in the profile on the knolls was poor quality, but he figured if he added six inches of good topsoil, he might bring areas 4 and 5 up to the field average. “Think about it. It’s the very best topsoil that ends up in the drains. It’s that way on any farm. “Soil in the drains has so much organic matter and so much water holding capacity. Moving it from the drains to the knolls totally changed the way those two spots behaved. “They went from the very lowest yielding parts of the (field) to the very highest yielding parts of the field. It worked far better than we would have ever guessed.” Mitchell said he plans to use the technique on other spots. While fixing 3.6 acres may not seem significant to farmers in Western Canada, land prices in Iowa are about $6,000 per acre. Corn can yield 225 bu. per acre and soybeans 65 bu. Put it all together, and a few hours on the scraper tractor start to make good economic sense. “Plus, there’s another consideration if you’re buying new land. Study the maps and aerial photos to see if there are spots you can fix. It has a lot to do with how much you should pay for land.” Mitchell’s ancestors homesteaded the farm in 1871. He thinks the knolls could have been eroded before that, adding that soil erosion isn’t necessarily the man-made catastrophe many people make it out to be. It’s a natural occurrence on the Great Plains. “The Plains used to burn off with those giant prairie fires. The surface had no protection. If there was a big rain or a big wind storm right after a fire, the soil would erode easily.” Even with a combination of no till and strip till, Mitchell knows that a catastrophic amount of rain can haul a lot of his best soil down the Mississippi River.

As a preventive measure, all the surface drains have a thick grass base to catch the soil before it runs into the creeks and rivers. Autosteer planter Mitchell began intercropping in 2005. He alternates a 30-foot wide strip of corn with a 30-foot wide strip of soybeans that get planted a week later. The benefits were obvious. Nonintercropped corn on the Mitchell farm averaged 200 bu. In the fields where corn strips were interspersed with soybean strips, the corn averaged 225 bu. But the scheme demands extreme accuracy from the tractor and planter. If planting isn’t perfect, running a 30-foot header in the fall becomes a real nightmare. Mitchell said many machines will drift in the field. To meet the need for better row accuracy, he installed steering tires on the planter he uses for corn and beans. “A lot of potato growers use John Deere or the Trimble True Tracker GPS steer ing systems on their planters. Putting steering on the planting machine gives you a tremendous advantage, not just for row croppers, but also for broad acre crops seeded with an air drill. “There’s no reason you can’t have automated steering on your tractor, commodity cart and your drill or planter.” Mitchell also installed a steering coulter on his anhydrous applicator. The coulter mounts on the hitch and steers hydraulically. “This prevents it from wobbling. And it keeps the tanks on the controlled traffic lane between the rows. “Some tractor manufacturers have started offering steering hitches that do the same thing. I think you need implement steering if you’re doing

MOVING TOPSOIL FROM THE LOW AREAS, WHERE IT COLLECTED, TO ERODED KNOLLS The Mitchell plan When Wade and Clay Mitchell realized that low-yielding areas 4 and 5 perfectly matched up with light areas on a 1930s aerial photo, they decided to fix the problem by applying high quality soil from area 6.

controlled traffic.” Mitchell began converting to controlled traffic in 2000 when he bought his first GPS autosteer system. Since then, every implement on the farm has been outfitted with autosteer. The traffic patterns require two distinct lanes, covering about 17 percent of the arable land. No machinery is allowed off the lanes. “We had one field that had been in total traffic control for 10 years. The soil in the lanes was firm enough to support our machines. “Then we got a new 24 row planter that had four centre wheels. That’s the only configuration we could get. Two wheels would have to run on the soil that hadn’t seen a tire for 10 years. “When we took it to the field, the soil under those two wheels was so fluffy, the wheels sank six inches. After 10 years with no traffic, that soil was so loose. No cultivation. Just controlling traffic.” Single row yield monitor Soil compaction can have a tremendous impact on yield. Single row yield comparisons on the Mitchell farm have revealed that corn yields can vary as much as 100 bu. per acre

within a 12-row strip. Although traffic may not be the only factor in this discrepancy, row-byrow yield checks help define compaction and the other causes of yield loss. Wade and his son, Clay, regularly conduct field trials to fine tune their farming operation. The list of in-field studies includes soil density, plant populations, plant spacing and fertilizer placement. “We want data from individual rows. If you come in with a big combine that does 12 or 16 rows, all your variations get thrown together. “By using a single row monitor, we can find out what works and what doesn’t.” One big lesson the Mitchells have learned is to check the anhydrous knives at least once a year. “We’ve had brand new anhydrous knives that have a 50 percent variation from one to the other. They’re new, right from the factory, and they’re plugged up.” He said it’s pointless to think about precision farming until these details have been addressed. Another of those details is the accuracy of your GPS. Mitchell said that the north-south lines on the John Deere system converge to follow the curvature of the earth. “The John Deere lines hit the North Pole dead centre. “But the Trimble lines run straight. They don’t converge. They follow a cylindrical projection of the earth’s surface called the Mercator projection, like those flat cut-out maps of the earth. “You can standardize your own farm with one system or the other, but if you hire a custom operator for seeding or spraying or harvest, his maps won’t match your maps.” He said that on the typically small fields in the corn-soybean belt, producers can work around the minor discrepancy if they’re aware of it. But on the Prairies where farmers often have a two or three mile run, the divergence can be significant. “It’s something that needs to be resolved. We need a standardized criteria that every manufacturer follows. If we’re going to do precision farming, then we need to be precise.” The Mitchell Farm is more than just an efficient, high performance farming operation. Wade and Clay, both engineers, also view it as a giant research project. They are continuously exploring new technology that will help them, and other farmers, become more productive.

WASHINGTON, D.C.

Direct payments, created in 1996 as a temporary measure, will be the largest farm subsidy this year and terminating them would be a dramatic reshaping of the U.S. farm pro-

Tandem Truck Has Stories to Tell It may not have collected many miles over the years, but Warren Moore’s 1940 tandem truck has collected more than its share of stories. The truck has a Marmon-Herrington tandem drive and wheels, and also a Marmon-Herrington front end drive, making it a 6 X 6 from a regular Ford frame and chassis. This combination was quite common during world war two, but is rare today. Moore grows 1,100 acres of canola, wheat and barley north of Fort St. John, BC with his wife Orva and son Martin. He purchased the truck in 1989 because it was such an unusual find. “It’s rare to see 6-wheeled vehicles like this one in a civilian application. This one was taken over by the Royal Canadian Air Force. It apparently came to Fort St. John in 1941 as an RCAF fire truck,” he says. The truck was used at the first airport in Fort St. John until a new one was built in 1944, when it was moved to the new airport for use as an emergency vehicle. In 1946 the truck was sold at an auction in Dawson Creek to Dave’s Garage, a Fort St. John Ford dealership. “They set it up as a wrecker and used it as a tow truck until 1961, when it was taken to the dealership owner’s farm. It was used on the farm I believe until I bought it in 1989.” When Moore bought the truck, the old fire engine body was so rusted he had to remove it. He built a new flat deck on it at that time, and later had the truck completely restored. “But it still has the original tires on it, branded RCAF,” he says. At 70 years old and with 21,000 miles on it, Moore’s Ford still does light jobs on the farm now and then, and makes occasional appearances at parades in the Fort St. John area. It’s most important appearance was in the parade celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Alaska Highway in 1992. Moore entered a photo of his old Ford tandem truck in the joint Western Producer/Dow AgroSciences Tandem Truck Giveaway at winatandemtruck.ca. The grand prize in the contest is a tandem truck valued at over $130,000. A Canon EOS camera will also be given away for the best photograph. Moore says he will find good use for a new tandem truck if he wins the contest. “We have two tandem trucks on the farm that we use to haul grain, but they’re about 12 years old. We could certainly make use of a new one,” he says.

subsidy is unnecessary because more than half of recipients have incomes above $100,000 a year. In a blog, White House rural adviser Doug McKalip said elimination of the subsidy was common sense reform. Elimination of direct payments would save $30 billion over a decade and crop insurance reforms would save $8.3 billion, said the White House. It also suggested cuts of $2 billion in stewardship programs and renewal of a disaster program that expires on Oct.1 for net savings of $33 billion. Republican farm-state lawmakers said Obama should have looked at land stewardship and public nutrition programs rather than proposing hefty cuts to farm and crop insurance subsidies. “For example, cutting $8 billion from crop insurance puts the entire program at risk,” said House of Representatives agriculture committee chair Frank Lucas of Oklahoma and Kansas senator Pat Roberts, Republican leader on the Senate Agriculture Committee. Discussion of farm reform is usually put off until a new farm law is being written, but the congressional drive for large savings could force earlierthan-usual debate. Direct payments were tabbed months ago as a target for reduction or elimination. Some farm groups hope to shift money from the payments into programs that compensate for farm losses. “We think the program is politically vulnerable,” said analyst Mark McMinimy of MF Global. “But just how the program may be altered and how quickly changes will go into effect are still very much open questions.” The National Corn Growers said it was concerned the cuts would undermine farmers’ ability to buy crop insurance to offset high and volatile market prices. “While direct payments may be impacted, we are going to find a way to have a safety net in place,” said agriculture secretary Tom Vilsack to the National Restaurant Association. The government pays roughly 60 percent of the premium for crop insurance. The White House would reduce the subsidy by two basis points on policies with a federal subsidy above 50 percent, for savings estimated at $2 billion. More than 90 percent of policyholders opt for higher levels of coverage. The White House also would lower the rate of return to insurers to 12 percent, from the current 14 percent, to save $2 billion. It would cap administrative expenses at $900 million a year, adjusted for inflation, to save $3.7 billion, and set the premium for catastrophic coverage more accurately, saving $600 million. Senate budget committee chair Kent Conrad said Obama asked “for larger agriculture cuts than are necessary or appropriate” and could impair drafting of the 2012 farm law. Without the direct payment, the budget for farm supports would be half or less than current spending.

EUROPEAN BEEF FACTS

Flaws found in EU quota system

In 2009: • The largest beef producers in the European Union were France (19%), Germany (15%), Italy (14%), United Kingdom (11%) and Spain (7%).

Cattle producers frustrated | Market speculators grabbing quota while producers can’t get enough STORIES BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Producers wanting to get Canadian beef into the European Union will have to pay. The EU opened a 21,200 tonne duty-free quota so importers could buy beef from any country able to meet European production specifications. However, demand for imported beef exceeded the quota limit. Importers became involved in buying and selling quota that subsequently shut out Canadian exporters. “This is a big part of the problem as to how the European Union works,” said John Masswohl of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association. The EU offers quotas to beef suppliers and some, like the 11,500 Hilton quota open to Canada and the United States comes with a 20 percent duty. “The quotas are very small in relation to what the import demand is and it is basic economics of supply and demand. If you have got a lot more people wanting something than there is available, then the quota itself becomes a marketable commodity,” he said. It is estimated import demand is about half a million tonnes per year but the duty-free quota is only 21,200 tonnes. Next year it will be 48,000 tonnes. Importers must apply each month and many ask for more than they need in hopes of getting some of the quota they need. The commission assigned a coefficient so all applicants received a small portion of what they asked for. In that first month if someone asked for 1,000 tonnes, they received a 43

• Beef and veal production represents about 18 percent of the EU’s total meat production. The region produced 7.72 million tonnes* of beef and veal in 2009. • Typically, 95 percent of the EU’s beef production is consumed domestically but in 2009, the region consumed 8.03 million tonnes of beef and veal and had to import 307,000 tonnes to meet its needs. That works out to an average of 14.6 kilograms of beef or veal per person. * carcass weight Source: European Commission, Agriculture Canada | MICHELLE HOULDEN GRAPHIC

The European Union imports about 500,000 tonnes per year but has set a duty-free quota of just 21,200 tonnes for 2011. Next year it will expand to 48,000 tonnes. | MIKE STURK PHOTO tonne allocation. That had importers scrambling for additional quota and opened the door to speculators. “If they really were importers, we wouldn’t have this problem but they also received applications from speculators who know how the system works. They know having a quo-

ta allocation is like having money in their pockets,” said Masswohl. “The first month this quota was opened, they had applications for 380,000 tonnes. All that was available was one-twelfth or about 1,600 tonnes.” Accessing information from the European Commission about who is

applying, their buying patterns and whether they are real importers is difficult, he said. “I fear whatever the commission does, people are going to find a way around it and make money off it.” The beef industry is working with the Canadian government and the

commission but the quota trade has become like another duty, said Dennis Laycraft, executive vice-president of the cattlemen’s association. “Consequently it has taken on value. It is almost like by trading the quota, it is de facto type duty except it is not going to any government, it is basically some profit-taking by some of the people who receive quota,” he said. “It just shows why a Canada-EU trade agreement is so important because we can get an ambitious agreement and set up procedures to prevent some of this nonsense from occurring.” Canada, the United States and Australia have access to the quota but a spokesperson for the U.S. Meat Export Federation said he was unaware of selling quota. “Our big concern is to get the quota larger,” said Joe Schuele. Since the quota went into effect, the U.S. has exported between about 17,000 tonnes to the Netherlands, Italy and Germany. Australia got about 2,500 tones and Canada got the remainder. access=subscriber section=livestock,none,none

Innisfail meat plant lays off workers, blames closed EU markets Sungold Specialty Meats has been forced to lay off 75 workers after it was unable to sell its premium beef into Europe. “We are suspending processing of (European Union) protocol cattle at Sungold,” said plant manager Howard Oudman Sept. 21. The federal meat processor located at Innisfail, Alta., is certified to process beef for the EU, the halal trade, which processes food according to Islamic law, and the domestic market. However, when it was unable to gain access to Europe, major production changes had to be made. Oudman said the plant will shift to lamb. It will continue to process cattle and bison on a custom basis one day per week. The company processed cattle for

the EU and learned in July its customers could not get access to the 21,000 tonne duty-free quota. A Sept. 21 message from their customers in Europe who attended a special meeting in Brussels, Belgium, was pessimistic about the quota allocation dispute being resolved any time soon. The product made inroads in the short time it was available in Europe and they continue to get calls about it. “It is really disconcerting to find out how the quota is managed,” Oudman said. Last year, Canada was granted access to share in the duty-free quota for hormone beef to Europe. The United States, Australia and Canada share the quota but it is open to any supplier that can meet EU protocols.

New Zealand and Uruguay are also applying for a share. The quota is bid on each month but demand was greater than supply and it was sold for about 50 cents a pound, said Rick Paskal, chair of Canada Gold Beef that bought into the plant earlier this year. Canada Gold’s customers said they would not pay for quota. “The guy with the deepest pocket would prevail,” he said. “The access we are supposed to have and the access we have are two different things, he said. “We don’t have a lot of confidence in going forward. I think it is a non tariff trade barrier,” he said. Paying for quota would cost an additional $20,000 for a container load of beef holding 40 tonnes. To

gain a customer base in Europe, the company shipped beef under a 11,500 quota called the Hilton quota, and paid the 20 percent duty that added $50,000 to the cost earlier this year. “Our pockets are not deep. We had to make a decision to curtail our exports,” he said. Canada Gold was set up to offer premium beef from cattle raised under specific production methods and in return offered participating producers bonuses. The beef is available at a number of higher-end Canadian restaurants. It also offered an EU program and worked with a group of producers for about three years. Cattle were selected, raised in a system free of growth hormones and beta agonist growth

promoting drugs, and segregated at a EU certified feedlot. They were processed at the Innisfail plant and producers were paid higher prices. The company shipped 40 containers that was the equivalent to 7,000 to 8,000 head. About 200-250 pounds per carcass that included rumps, hinds and middle meats were exported and earned company participants a good profit. “This Canadian product is really well received over there. It is unique,” said Paskal. “There are people over there who are the kind of customers who are beneficial to the Canadian industry. The stars were all lined up here. This was a real opportunity for the Canadian industry.” access=subscriber section=livestock,none,none

CORN GRAZING | EAST KOOTENAY REGION

B.C. rancher explains success of corn grazing Corn variety is key | Early maturing corn produces too much grain, which can cause acidosis, but late maturing can cause poor cobs and lower grazing capacity

“You’ve got hail”

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

CRANBROOK, B.C. — Like most good ideas, neighbours up the road had it first, said Harlan Bradford, owner of JP Ranch in the East Kootenay region near Cranbrook. But Bradford liked the idea of growing corn for grazing and he is now in his fifth year of growing the crop in a region where corn is not the usual choice. JP Ranch sits on Sheep Creek at an elevation of 3,000 feet. It comprises 360 acres, but only 200 are farmable. “The rest is just scenery,” Bradford told a Society for Range Management tour on Sept. 22. “We’re kind of hemmed in.” With little crown range available, he has to make the best use of resources to feed his 250 cows. Though he is able to rent about 120 acres of additional land, his own property under irrigation, both corn and fields of alfalfa grass mix, furnish most of his cattle feed.

Bradford said he turns the cattle into his 35 acre corn patch in December, where they will stay until about the end of February, when calving begins. He controls their grazing to less than one acre per day, using portable electric fencing made from rebar and one strand of fine aircraft cable. Hay is also part of the ration, to better balance the diet and reduce risk of acidosis. His cows eat the cobs first and then go back for the leaves and stalks. In the December to February period, about one foot of snow is com-

mon in his region, which doesn’t affect the cows’ ability to graze. “I don’t think the snow has a big effect on the corn either,” said Bradford. “The part that’s in the snow is the (lower) stalk that cows don’t usually eat.”

MIKE DOGGART INTERIOR SEED AND FERTILIZER

Mike Doggart of Interior Seed and Fertilizer told the group that the crop provides 360 to 450 cow grazing days. At a cost for JP Ranch of $315 per acre in 2010, the cost of grazing worked out to $1.14 per cow grazing day. However, he noted choice of hybrid is crucial to the economics. If it matures too early, the crop produces too much grain, increasing the risk of acidosis in cattle that eat it. If it matures too late, poor cob development results in lower carrying capacity. “There are a number of different microclimates in the East Kootenay,” said Doggart. “If you are in the main valley bottom, you should be able to get grazing corn to mature. If you cannot normally dry your second cut hay, growing corn is probably not a good option.” Wildlife fencing for grazing corn is also recommended. The area is heavily populated with deer and elk, which also find corn a tasty feed. Tom VanMoorsel of Pioneer HiBred said grain corn is 95 percent digestible for cattle and provides high energy. Researchers are experimenting with swathing the corn to prevent over maturity, said VanMoorsel. When cows dig through the snow they tend to eat stalks from the bottom rather than loading up with cobs first. That results in a more balanced ration, he said.

BSE TESTING | COMPENSATION

Alberta ends BSE testing top-up Producers will get only $75 per animal head submitted for testing from Ottawa BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

LETHBRIDGE — Alberta cattle producers will receive $75 instead of $225 as of Sept. 15 for dead animals they submit for BSE testing. The Alberta government will no longer reimburse cattle producers $150 for each eligible sample. Producers will continue to receive $75 from the federal government program, says a provincial government news release. Provincial veterinarian Dr. Gerald Hauer was not available for comment. In a radio interview, he said the provincial top-up of $150 was no longer needed because Alberta cattle producers are now aware of the BSE testing program.

The Canada-Alberta BSE Surveillance Program targets cattle four to seven years old for testing. These animals are considered most at risk of developing BSE, a brain wasting disease that devastated the Canadian cattle industry in 2003. The discovery closed the borders to Canadian cattle exports and reduced the value of cattle. Since then, 17 cases of BSE have been found, the most recent one in February 2011, according to Canadian Food Inspection Agency data. To the end of August 2011, the CFIA has tested 25,444 animals this year. By testing animals annually, Canada remains in compliance with world animal health organization requirements to retain its status as a country with controlled BSE risk.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency implemented the BSE testing program in Canada in 2004. Later that year, CFIA and Alberta created the enhanced surveillance program to reflect the higher number of cattle in that province. It has been modified several times since. Only licensed veterinarians certified by Alberta Agriculture can verify the age of animals tested, provide a description of the animal, the herd and operation from which it came and conduct a post-mortem documenting cause of death. BSE is related to a human variant of brain wasting disease called Creutzfeldt Jakob disease, which is invariably fatal. It can be contracted by eating BSE-infected meat. access=subscriber section=livestock,none,none

ANTIBIOTICS | USE

Drugs for bugs useful if diagnosis correct, treatment timely ANIMAL HEALTH

JOHN CAMPBELL, DVM, DVSC

It is important to know when it is futile to continue treatment

f antibiotic X doesn’t seem to work, should producers switch to antibiotic Y? It’s a common question posed to vet erinarians. What does it mean when there is no improvement after giving antibiotic therapy? The most common scenario involves weaned calves treated for respiratory diseases, although it could be a sick cow or baby calf as well. What are the reasons for treatment failure? One of the most common is that the animal has not been treated in a timely fashion. This is usually a result of waiting too long before initiating treatment or failing to identify the sick animals in the early stages of the disease. In these cases, the disease is too advanced and the pathology caused by the disease is too severe. The pathology may have walled off the infection and made it impossible for the antibiotics to penetrate or it may have caused such severe organ damage that there is no chance of recovery. It’s a common scenario and one that can be frustrating as there is often little that can be done once the disease has progressed to such an advanced state. One of the important rules of antibiotic use is knowing when to stop treatment. It makes little sense economically or scientifically to use expensive antibiotics on animals that have no hope of recovery. Another possible reason for treat-

ment failure is a wrong diagnosis. Antibiotics are only useful in treating bacterial infections. Diseases caused by viral infections, nutritional deficiencies, toxins and parasites are not going to respond to antibiotics. A case of lungworm in a weaned beef calf might be treated with antibiotics if an inaccurate diagnosis has been made, but the parasitic disease will not respond to the therapy. The phrase “not all bugs need drugs” has been coined to promote appropriate antimicrobial use in human medicine and it also holds true for livestock. Having an accurate diagnosis will help in the correct therapy. A veterinarian can help producers decide if an antibiotic is necessary and will also help in the selection of the most appropriate antibiotic. Another potential scenario is having management problems beyond a simple bacterial infection. Cattle with nutritional deficiencies or in stressful environments, such as muddy or overcrowded conditions, may have a diminished immune response and despite therapy may not respond as expected It is important to minimize disease risk through other means and not be overly reliant on antibiotics. The use of biosecurity, vaccination programs, maintaining good sanitation, avoiding overcrowding, maintaining good nutrition and parasite control will minimize disease risk and antibiotic use. Another reason for failure of therapy could be that the organism is not sensitive to the antibiotic being used. We are fortunate in that this is a relatively uncommon scenario in beef cattle bacterial infections. Antibiotic resistance does occur but it is not usually the most common reason for the failure of animals to respond. We are fortunate to have antibiotics to help us treat and prevent disease in our animals. We want to preserve their usefulness and be good stewards of antibiotics so we minimize the development of antibiotic resistance in

animals and people. Producers should work with a vet-

erinarian to establish treatment protocols and disease prevention pro-

grams that will promote good antibiotic stewardship.

run on CN track to the CN Chappell yard in Saskatoon and on to Delisle where they can join Big Sky. The project was years in the making, with West Central Road and Rail formed in the late 1990s when it seemed CN might abandon the track and grain companies were tearing down their elevators. But CN did not close the line and WCRR started to fill in for the missing elevators, first with producer car loading sites and now with five modern loading facilities. WCRR was still interested in a short line and had consulted with Affleck about his experience forming Last Mountain Railway. Late last year, WCRR contacted Affleck again, saying that it and CN were interested in having Mobil Grain serve the new short line. “My question was … it’s two separate lines … all your equipment in two separate places. And then they said CN will give you running rights through Saskatoon,” he said. “I nearly hit the floor.” CN wanted the deal to succeed because its wants the grain volume for its main line to the West Coast, Affleck said. However, its labour agreements

and overhead costs hurt financial viability when running on low volume branch lines. Another innovation is that Mobil Grain will market the grain that comes off the line. Wheat and barley have been the mainstays, but Affleck intends to go after all crops. “Being a shipper and a railroad, you are not dependent on others to generate the traffic. You are responsible for generating your own and if you need more volume, you get more progressive or you expand or whatever.” A third strong point is WCRR’s facilities provide a number of services offered by traditional elevators, but retain the financial benefits for farmers of producer car loading. They also can do virtual blending where, by knowing what is in each hopper car, they can lift the grade of poor grain without actually blending each car. WCRR will have an equity position in Big Sky.

The unusual sight of Mobil Grain’s bright blue locomotives travelling on CN mainline track is one hallmark of a breakthrough in railway co-operation arising from a new short line called Big Sky Rail. Mobil Grain Ltd. and West Central Road and Rail have teamed up to create Big Sky Rail, Saskatchewan’s 12th short-line railway. Big Sky Rail operates 354 kilometres of track on former CN lines west of Lake Diefenbaker. Sheldon Affleck, president of Big Sky Rail and Mobil Grain, said CN helped make the $17.5 million project viable by volunteering to allow Mobil Grain’s locomotives to travel on its tracks between Big Sky and another of Mobil’s short lines, Last Mountain Railway. The flexibility of a short line should provide improved service that will attract grain, Affleck said. “There is the possibility to probably at least double and … possibly triple what has come off that line,” he said. “We have found in a short time, and it comes as no surprise, terrific farmer uptake.” West Central Road and Rail has good facilities, he added. “They just need more rail cars and predictable service.” Mobil Grain is the parent company of Last Mountain, which has operated for about two years on a former CN line running from Regina to Davidson. Under a new trackage rights agreement, CN will allow Mobil’s locomotives from the Last Mountain line to

which hopes the short line will save it money by taking heavy trucks off its rural roads, is assisting with a $5.6 million interest free loan. Big Sky is operating with a lease with option to buy the track. The purchase price will be $17.5 million. The east-west portion of Big Sky runs on the former Mantario and Elrose lines from Macrorie through Elrose and Eston to a point near Laporte. The north-south portion runs on the former Conquest line from Beechy north to Delisle. Affleck noted that in the future the short line might be able to transport the region’s other resources, such as oil and possibly potash if exploration leads to a mine. The short line could help spur regional development while helping save the roads, he said. “You can’t blame the trucks. The problem is the rail is not convenient enough, service is not good enough. If you can can make (rail) almost like a truck service, (cargo) will go the most efficient route.”

U.S. BEEF | CANADIAN IMPORTS

U.S. sets value record for beef exports to Canada High loonie contributes | A major portion of imports are specialty cuts for British Columbiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ethnic markets BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Canada has become the top destination for American beef. U.S. beef exports to Canada set a value record in June of nearly $97 million US, and then smashed the record in July with $131.3 million, said a news release from the U.S. Meat Export Federation. So far this year, U.S. beef exports total $592.2 million, an increase of 54 percent over last year on a volume of 110,712 tonnes. That surpassed sales to Mexico, formerly the top U.S. customer. Mexico actually accepted more beef by weight but the value

was less than what went to Canada. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We feel like we are having good success in Canada. We had two record setting months in a row. Our desire is if we have a free flow of product between the two countries, then that means the buyers are getting what they want,â&#x20AC;? said Joe Schuele of the federation. Canfax reports Canadian beef exports to the U.S. to the end of June were 122,240 tonnes while the U.S. shipped 131,389 tonnes to Canada. Most of the exports to Canada were round cuts to Quebec and specialty cuts to the Lower Mainland of British Columbia where they serve a large Asian population.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have beef producing states that are much closer to Quebec than some of the areas of large beef production in Canada,â&#x20AC;? Schuele said in an interview. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you look at the geography involved, it is sometimes a matter of being cheaper to bring product north and south rather than take it all across the country,â&#x20AC;? he said. Strong currency a factor The record exports are also connected to the strength of the loonie, which has been at par with the U.S. dollar or better, making it cheaper to buy American beef.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We try to have an open border between Canada and the United States and they have certainly benefitted from the exchange rate situation the way we have benefitted in the past,â&#x20AC;? said John Masswohl of the Canadian Cattlemenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Prior to 2002 for every pound of beef that came into Canada from the U.S., we exported six and seven lb. That ratio has shrunk to one to four or five lb.,â&#x20AC;? he said. In the past, a weak Canadian dollar hid many inefficiencies here. While some Canadians may not like the statistics, it is not worth turning them into a trade dispute, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our advantage has gotten smaller

in our present circumstances but we do pretty well in terms of having an open border with the United States. If anyone wants to suggest that we should be doing things in terms of border actions or government regulations to limit the flow of U.S. beef into Canada, that is going to be a losing game for Canadian beef producers,â&#x20AC;? said Masswohl. Also, fewer live animals are going stateside. Statistics Canada reports during the first half of 2011, 374,400 head of live cattle and calves were shipped south, down nearly 40 percent from the same period in 2010 and 38 percent from the first half of 2009. access=subscriber section=ag_finance,none,none

van Smith is a rancher, meat shop owner, restaurateur and valuechain operator, but his most important job may be math teacher. And his penchant for making things add up when setting prices is a habit anyone selling food to consumers should acquire. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of local food producers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take the time to do the math,â&#x20AC;? says Smith, owner of Big Bend Bison Ranches and Big Bend Markets in Red Deer, Alta. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They just go to a few grocery stores, look at what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re charging for something and think, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;If I sell it for that price, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be making money.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Well, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that simple.â&#x20AC;?

Many of them sell â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or used to sell â&#x20AC;&#x201D; meat from their freezer and figured they made good money until Smith brought out his pencil. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Almost always theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not counting things â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like the electricity to run their freezer or their time,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only when you add up everything that they see theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not really making money at it.â&#x20AC;? Smith isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t suggesting his fellow producers are arithmetically challenged. Rather, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those thinedge-of-the-wedge situations. Of course, the power for a freezer costs only a few bucks a month. But how about the gas for running back and forth to the processor or picking up freezer wrap and labels? And what about your time, for those jobs, doing a bit of marketing or just talking to customers? â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I sold out of my house, I thought I was doing well,â&#x20AC;? says Smith, who began raising bison in 1998. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The little costs disappear into the

household budget and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put a price on your time. I was that way until I started going to seven farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; markets a week. I looked at the time that was taking and other costs, and knew I had to start calculating that. As soon as I did, I put my prices up.â&#x20AC;? Even then, Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s urge was to sell low. A fanatic about bisonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s merits as healthy and lean meat, he started with just 42 animals, grew his herd to 2,100 head by 2008, and started buying from other producers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted everybody eating bison so I kept my prices low, below the cost of beef,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to make a point, but I created a monster. Long afterwards, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have customers coming in and say-

ing, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;How come that bison burger is $8 a pound? It used to be less than hamburger.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? The reason was simple. Smith had long wanted to sell fresh bison meat, something that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t possible at farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; markets and so in 2007, he bought his first meat shop in Red Deer. That meant more overhead costs, plus wages, but also the chance to compare his margins on bison to the other meats he sold. Smith was able to look past retail prices and focus on what really matters â&#x20AC;&#x201D; profitability. It was around then that he admitted the obvious: small players in the food chain who compete on price are at a huge disadvantage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do things as efficiently as a big global corporation,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re processing a few hundred pounds of something, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just not going to be as efficient as a big company processing a few hundred thousand pounds.â&#x20AC;?

SPECIAL REPORT

BRIAN CROSS

As the Conservative government plans to end the Canadian Wheat Board single desk in time for the 2012-13 crop year, many farmers wonder what the future holds. Western Producer reporter Brian Cross visited producers who farm on both sides of the Canada-U.S. border to learn their experiences in the two marketing systems and their expectations about life after the CWB monopoly.

GRAIN | MARKETING

Cross-border farmers eager to see end of single desk » Montana farmer Dave Rasmussen

says wheat is generally a more profitable crop on his U.S. fields compared to prices he gets for his Canadian wheat crop at his family’s farm in Tribune, Sask.

U.S. system called more profitable | Open market requires more planning and market monitoring

he smile on Dave Rasmussen’s face is as bright as the afternoon sunshine as he finishes the 2011 durum harvest on his farm in northern Montana. Rasmussen raises cereals, pulse crops and oilseeds just a few kilometres south of the Canada-U.S. border. This year’s durum crop is shaping up to be a profitable one. Grain quality is good and according to the yield monitor on his combine, his last field of durum is yielding 54 bushels per acre, an outstanding yield for Sheridan County, where the family farm is based. Market signals are also encouraging. Earlier in the day, the closest grain company — Columbia Grain in Plentywood, Mont. — was offering a cash price of $12.75 US per bu. for top quality durum. And with production problems affecting much of the prime durum growing area in southern Saskatchewan, Montana and North Dakota, top quality milling grain could be in short supply. “That works,” says Rasmussen, referring to cash prices in Plentywood.

“That definitely works. At that price, you should be able to make a few dollars.” Rasmussen, who has been growing and marketing durum in northern Montana since the late 1970s, has already contracted some of this year’s crop at $15 US a bu., a price that comes along only once or twice in a career. The rest of 2011 crop will be stored on the farm and will enter the market when the time and price are right. In 2008, cash prices for top quality durum hit $24 a bu. at some Montana elevators. Producers in Sheridan County are hoping for a similar rally this year, he said. Rasmussen will also pay close attention this fall to proposed grain marketing changes expected north of the border in Canada. In addition to growing grain in Montana, the Rasmussen family has farmed in Canada since the mid1960s so changes to the Canadian Wheat Board will have a direct impact on the family’s bottom line. Rasmussen acknowledges that he is in an ideal position to compare grain marketing systems in Canada and the United States. Wheat grown on Rasmussen’s farm near Tribune, Sask., goes into the CWB’s pooling system and is sold by the board. On the U.S. side, wheat is normally delivered to a couple of local grain companies, one in Plentywood, about 25 km away, and the other in

Westby, about 40 km further down the road. The two U.S. companies compete aggressively for locally produced grain and prices at the terminals usually reflect that competition, he says. When asked where he would rather sell grain, Rasmussen responds immediately. “In the past, I can honestly say that I don’t know of one time that we’ve received more money for our wheat in Saskatchewan than we have down here,” he said. “Over the years, there have been (U.S.) government programs that have affected (profitability), but just as far as selling wheat into the market is concerned, excluding all the government programs, we’ve still been considerably more profitable here than we have been up there.” Not far away, near Minton, Sask., farmer Rick Jensen will also be watching closely to see what becomes of the CWB. Like Rasmussen, Jensen has been growing and marketing crops on both sides of the international border for decades. Given the choice, Jensen would also sell his Canadian grain into the open American market. “The price up here (in Canada) is typically never as high as it is down there,” said Jensen, who grows pulses and cereals on about 1,700 acres in Montana and 850 acres in Saskatchewan. Jensen said there have been times when Canadian cereal prices were

higher than U.S. prices. On average, however, selling to American grain buyers has been more profitable. “I think on average, their prices are higher,” he said. “Certainly, there will be times when U.S. prices are lower because the (U.S.) market tends to fluctuate more, but even with (the CWB’s) interim payments on durum and spring wheat, I think we probably average more down there.” Jensen thinks the elimination of single desk marketing in Canada will present a challenge to some Canadian growers who have never marketed their own wheat. He said an open market is more prone to short-term price fluctuations and offers farmers less price stability over the course of a crop year. In Canada, Pool Return Outlooks offer a reliable estimate of average annual crop values and allow farmers to make fairly accurate predictions of annual farm-gate revenues. On the U.S. side, projecting farm revenues can be more tricky. An open market is more prone to price variability. Depending on supply and demand fundamentals, cash prices on any given day can be higher or lower than wheat board returns. The secret to getting a decent market return, Jensen said, is to watch future and cash prices closely, develop good relationships with local grain buyers, minimize risk by contracting a portion of the crop each year and pay access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

close attention to domestic and global production estimates. Producers should also be wary of quality discounts, which can vary significantly from one buyer to the next. “I’m used to both systems and I think the open market has been a good option for me,” Jensen said. “If the CWB is eliminated, I think there’s going to be a learning curve on the marketing side for some (Canadian) farmers. “The open market is a good system. You might not get the highest price all the time so when you budget and do your projections, you have to look at futures prices, contract prices and cash prices and you kind of have to expect to get a happy medium …” Rasmussen, meanwhile, thinks the transition from single desk marketing to an open market structure will be a relatively smooth one. He said the chance to market his own grain in Canada is a “great opportunity” that will inevitably increase profits at the Saskatchewanbased operation. “There’s been a lot of speculation by a lot of different people about what will happen,” he said “There’s always some fear of the unknown which is just common human nature, but marketing wheat in the open market is no different than marketing your lentils, peas or chickpeas. “I do not consider myself a great marketer but I would much rather do it myself.”

rain farmer Louis Kuster is expecting an abbreviated harvest on his farm in North Dakota this fall. Like his neighbours in Manitoba and southeastern Saskatchewan, Kuster was served a nasty curve ball by Mother Nature in 2011. Heavy winter snowfall, followed by a late spring blizzard and frequent rains in May took a huge toll on the state’s seeded acreage. For Kuster, the result will be a small crop that could conceivably be harvested in just four or five days. “It was wet everywhere,” said Kuster, who farms in Mountrail County near Stanley, N.D., about an hour’s drive south of the Canadian border. “You just couldn’t get into the field to seed. I think that was pretty much the story throughout the northwest corner of the state.” Kuster, who serves as a commissioner for the North Dakota Wheat Commission, said production was severely impacted. The durum crop will be particularly hard hit, delivering another blow to the crop. Mountrail County was once the state’s top producer of durum, but in recent years, production has been slipping. It now ranks third in the state and further declines could be around the corner, said Kuster. Much of the reduction in durum acreage is due to declining margins, disease pressures and marketing challenges. “Durum is a difficult crop to market (in the U.S.) because grading is more subject to non-exact standards,” he said. “In durum, some of the elevators play some real games. If you’re not on top of things, you can get some really big surprises.” Most of North Dakota’s durum acres are in the state’s northwest corner, where spring flooding was widespread. Montana’s durum growers faced similar conditions. Together, growers in northwestern North Dakota and northeastern Montana account for most U.S. durum acres. “I know the USDA’s numbers are putting us at about half of what we were last year for durum acres in North Dakota,” Kuster said. “Personally, I think that’s an opti-

Louis Kuster, who serves as a commissioner for the North Dakota Wheat Commission, says durum can be a difficult crop to market in the U.S. because of grading and discounts. | BRIAN CROSS PHOTOS mistic number.” In late August, cash prices for top quality milling durum were hovering around $12 per bushel at some North Dakota elevators, down from $15 or so a few months earlier. While the cash prices appear to be highly competitive, the actual prices that growers get can be significantly lower. Kuster said discounts and grade reductions can quickly turn $12 durum into $10 or $8 durum. In some cases, the discounts can be even more costly. “I’ve personally experienced up to $10 a bu. discounts on durum wheat, so even though you’re marketing at $12 a bushel, you end up getting $2.” Much depends on what grain companies have in store. Those seeking to blend off lower quality grain will offer attractive premiums and incentives to growers with top quality grain. Some farmers move grain long distances in search of premiums and trucking companies often stand to benefit. Farmers that produce smaller volumes are less likely to ship grain

far in search of premium pricing. Kuster, who is watching grain marketing developments in Canada, thinks the elimination of single-desk marketing in Canada will result in a more responsive market that is less prone to distortion. In general, an open market more accurately reflects the value of a crop, domestically and in export markets, he said. But grain companies both south and north of the border are in business to make a profit, he added. And some Canadian growers not accustomed to marketing their own crops could learn some tough lessons. Generally speaking, small producers do not carr y as much weight in negotiations with private sector grain buyers. In addition, producers located reasonably close to multiple delivery points and competing grain companies will have a better bargaining position in an open market. At his farm near Stanley, Kuster has five delivery points within an hour’s drive. Cash prices in the region are normally very competitive, but buyers

will use various tactics to increase their margins. “Their quoted prices are usually pretty competitive because they just about have to be to get you in the door,” said Kuster. “It’s after they get you in the door that you find out what the difference is.” Rail car availability, storage space and freight costs also influence what a company offers, and ultimately what it pays a producer for his grain. D av e R a s mu s s e n , a d u r u m grower from Antelope, Mont., agrees with Kuster that selling grain in the open market comes with its challenges. But Rasmussen thinks Western Canada’s transition from singledesk selling to an open market system will be a smooth one with few hiccups and no long-term disruptions to Canadian production. He also thinks that Canadian grain companies will adjust quickly to the new marketing environment. Significant quantities of Canadian wheat might be transported to the U.S. if there is a large enough price differential, he said. But in time, the markets will equalize and Canadian handlers will adjust their pricing in an effort to compete with nearby elevators and maintain volumes. “I think it’ll be a very easy transition,” said Rasmussen, a crossborder farmer who has grown and marketed wheat in Canada and the U.S. for the past 30 years. “When you hear complaints from (U.S.) farmers about not getting paid or not getting the price they expected, a lot of times there was a lack of communication.” Farmers who keep accurate representative samples of every field they harvest, establish good working relationships with several grain buyers and negotiate aggressively will do well in the new environment, he said. “I see open marketing as a big plus if you know what quality of grain you have,” he said. “I’m excited about it. I feel bad that there are a lot of people fearing it (in Canada), but I truly believe that after they’ve been into it for a while, they’ll realize that ‘gee, this kind of works.’ ”

U.S. FOOD GUIDE | MYPLATE

U.S. nutrition guide called too vague MyPlate | Failing to provide details on healthy choices could increase diabetes and heart disease, experts warn BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

It may have received positive reviews earlier this year, but Harvard University experts say that MyPlate, a U.S. government food guide, is overly simplistic and doesn’t steer consumers toward healthy choices. In early June, the U.S. Department of Agriculture unveiled MyPlate — a nutritional guide to replace the ancient healthy eating pyramid. Following the launch of MyPlate, U.S. first lady Michelle Obama and others lauded the simplicity of its design, a plate divided into four sections of fruits, veggies, grains and protein. “This is a quick, simple reminder for all of us to be more mindful of the foods that we’re eating. And as a mom, I can already tell how much this is going to help parents across the country,” Obama said, a few months ago. MyPlate might look good, said Walter Willett, department of nutrition chair for the Harvard School of Public Health, but it doesn’t tell consumers that particular foods are better than others. “Unfortunately, like the earlier U.S. Department of Agriculture pyramids, MyPlate mixes science with the influence of powerful agricultural interests, which is not the recipe for healthy eating,” Willett said. “One of (MyPlate’s) goals was to make things more simple. And, indeed, it is more simple, but perhaps too simple because it doesn’t provide the details (needed) to make healthy food choices.” In response to MyPlate, Willett and several other Harvard nutritionists

MyPlate, introduced by the USDA last year, lacks information, says Harvard nutritionists, who designed their own version, on the right. | HARVARD SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH / USDA GRAPHICS released their own food guide in the middle of September, called Healthy Eating Plate. The Harvard nutritional guide copies the format of MyPlate, dividing a plate into four segments, but it offers specific advice for each food category. For instance, one of the weaknesses of MyPlate, the nutritionists noted in a release, is that it doesn’t differentiate between whole grains and refined grains.

“That’s pretty useless because you could be loading up on fine grains that have adverse affects on diabetes and cardiovascular disease,” Willett said. The Harvard experts also recommend eating “healthy protein,” like fish, chicken and beans, rather than red meat and processed meats. “There is strong evidence that regular consumption of red meat is associated with a higher risk of heart disease, diabetes and colon cancer,” said

Eric Rimm, Harvard School of Public Health associate professor of nutrition. “Processed meat — such as bacon, hot dogs, and deli meat — is even more strongly linked with these diseases than red meat.” Furthermore, Healthy Eating Plate displays a bottle of oil in its design and points out that some oils are better than others. The caption next to the bottle tells consumers to choose healthy options like canola and olive

oil, because Americans don’t eat enough beneficial oils each day. That kind of detail is the key difference between MyPlate and Healthy Eating Plate, Willett said. The Harvard logo has text next to its image. In contrast, MyPlate has no text and no specific information. “MyPlate is pretty useless, actually, because you could be following (it) and have a healthy diet and you could be following (it) and have a horrible diet.”

Close to 40 farms participated in the second annual Open Farm Day in Manitoba. Visitors had the opportunity to see how different kinds of agricultural operations operate. Vegetable market gardens, an alpaca ranch, orchards, mixed farms, dairy operations and a pumpkin business were some of the participating farms. Manitoba Agriculture organized the Sept. 18 event. | SANDY BLACK PHOTOS

Preserving the potato harvest TEAM RESOURCES

BETTY ANN DEOBALD, BSHEc

arvest is in full swing and that includes cleaning potatoes out of the garden. A few potatoes are always cut during harvest, causing a dilemma of how to use them so they aren’t wasted. Freezing potatoes is an option. Raw potatoes don’t freeze well, but blanched or pre-cooked potatoes can be frozen. Freezing Potatoes Select smooth, firm potatoes from the garden. Some sources claim potatoes that have been stored for at least 30 days freeze better. To prepare, peel or scrape to remove bruises, green colour spots and dig out deep eyes and then thoroughly wash. Shred, dice or cut into wedges, slices or fries. Blanching in boiling water for a short time is a must for almost all vegetables destined for the freezer. It stops the enzyme action that can cause flavour, colour and texture loss. Blanching also retards vitamin loss and brightens the colour. Underblanching can stimulate enzyme activity, which can be worse than no blanching at all. Over blanching will cause loss of colour, flavour, vitamins and minerals. Therefore, blanching time is critical and will vary with the amount and size of vegetable. Use one gallon (four litres) of water per pound (500 g) of prepared potatoes. Heat the water to a vigorous boil in a blancher or pasta pot. This is a large, at least seven quart (seven litre) pot that has a perforated insert or basket similar to a colander. Put the potato pieces into the basket and lower into water and return to a vigorous boil. Place a lid on the blancher. The water should return to boiling within one minute, otherwise too many vegetables have been added compared to the volume of water. Start the blanching time as soon as the water returns to a boil and maintain a high heat for the entire length of the blanching period. Set a timer for the blanching time. Fill a sink full of cold or iced water. When the blanching time is complete, plunge the blanching basket and potatoes into the cold water and cool for the same length of time as the blanching time. Remove and drain the vegetables. Use a salad spinner to remove excess water, then lay the potatoes on parchment paper lined baking sheets to freeze. Within eight hours, remove from the freezer and pack into freezer bags, remove as much air as possible, label and return to freezer. Use within one year. access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

Blanching Times Potatoes should be somewhat firm following blanching. Shredded potatoes: 1 minute Diced, 1/2 inch (1 cm) cubed potatoes: 3 minutes Diced, 1 inch (2 cm) cubed potatoes: 4 minutes Wedged potatoes, depending on the size of wedges: 4 to 5 minutes

8 Yukon Gold 2 kg. potatoes, scrubbed, about 4 lb. 1/2 c. lemon juice 125 mL 1/4 c. oil 60 mL 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 tsp. salt 10 mL 2 tsp. dried oregano 10 mL 1 tsp. pepper 5 mL

Storing Whole Potatoes Place fresh, whole potatoes in a well-ventilated container and store in a cool, dark place for two to four months. Before storage, cure homegrown potatoes in a warm, dark place several days after harvesting. This will toughen the skins for better storage. Protect potatoes from sunlight and artificial light, as both will cause the skins to green.

OVEN HASH BROWNS 4 c. 1/2 in. diced, frozen potatoes non-stick spray

Spray a 9 x 13 inch (22 x 33 cm) baking dish with non-stick spray. Spread potatoes in dish and lightly spray the potatoes. Place in a 400 F (200 C) oven and roast 20 minutes, toss and roast an additional 20 minutes or until tender crisp and browned.

LEMON ROAST POTATO WEDGES These crispy, lemony potatoes can be made with frozen potato wedges. To quickly cut potato wedges, use an apple slicer. Cut the potatoes in half crosswise. Stand the potato half up on the cut end and then firmly press the apple slicer down on the potato to cut into wedges. Use the circle centre core along with the rest of the wedges.

For fresh potatoes, cut into wedges and put into a large pot of boiling salted water, cover and cook potatoes until slightly tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and let cool. In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, oil, garlic, salt, oregano and pepper, add cooled or frozen potatoes, toss gently to coat. At this point, the potatoes can be covered and refrigerated for up to four hours. To roast, arrange potatoes on a parchment paper-lined or greased rimmed baking sheet. Roast in 400 F (200 C) oven, turning once, until tender-crisp and most of the liquid is evaporated, about 40 minutes. Serves eight. This recipe can easily be halved for a smaller quantity.

ON THE FARM | QUEBEC DAIRY

Dairy’s organic switch profitable, tasty Processing venture | Organic products earn a premium — and ‘best cheese’ awards BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

SAINTE-ÉLIZABETH-de-WARWICK, Que. — Quebec dairy farmer Jean Morin is a producer who likes a challenge, who likes to try new things and walk the path less taken. A quarter of a century ago, he and brother Dominique became the first in this region southeast of Montreal to convert their fourth generation dairy farm into an organic operation. Six years ago, they purchased a church manse across the road from the farm, converted it into a cheese factory and five years ago launched w h a t i s o n e o f Q u e b e c ’s m o s t acclaimed new cheese makers. And so it was, on a sunny latesummer afternoon, Morin was enthusiastically telling a visitor about his latest venture into the unknown — working with a local Victoriaville college, he is testing a new field weeder developed in Denmark. He imported the machine from Denmark on a trial basis and is happy to be a guinea pig — to see if it works as effectively in the St. Lawrence River Valley as it does in northern Europe. If it does, he will be in the market to import one. “Twenty-five years ago, we wanted a challenge and that was organic,” he said. “I’m a farmer and I think it is important always to have a challenge, not to stick in a rut.” And the challenges the 52-year-old takes on often fit in with his environmental side.

“I’m not just in farming to make money, although that is nice,” he said. “I also think I have to work for the environment, for the future of my sons and my family. I want this land to keep going.” Morin has four children and his three sons have indicated they want to join the family business once they obtain college degrees. His operation, with 85 milking cows and 500 acres of forage, oilseeds and mixed grains is called La Ferme Louis d’Or — a name attached by his grandfather to commemorate French King Louis XIII who was ‘golden’ king when Quebec farming moved into the area in the 17th Century. The decision a quarter century ago to go organic has significantly changed the farm. Erosion is a problem in this hilly country and he uses green manure to give the soil some body. He has also planted shelterbelts to deal with wind erosion. But Morin said in this fertile area of the province, weeds are a plague for organic farmers — “a very big problem.” It’s why he is hoping the Danish weeder (a version also has been developed in New Zealand) may be the answer. “So far it is working well but the tests are not over.” Meanwhile, the decision in 2006 to add a processing side to the farm has been a roaring success. Twice a day, milk from the herd crosses the road to be transformed into award-winning cheeses. La Fromagerie du Presbytere uses raw, unpasteurized milk as its base access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

Jean Morin’s 85-head dairy operation provides milk for processing into cheese. His dog, aptly called Mon Chien (my dog) is a working dog on the farm. and Quebec regulations require added months of aging to account for the fact that it is raw milk. The results have been worth it. For the past three years, products from the farm have been named the best cheese in Quebec and last year, one of the cheeses was named VISIT YOUR LOCAL YAMAHA DEALER

best cheese in Canada in a Toronto competition. This year, cheese maker Marie Chantal Houde said they are in the running for another “best cheese” award. She brings milk from her sheep herd on a nearby farm, mixes it with Morin’s bovine milk and has started to produce a half-and-half cheese that she claimed is a winner. “It will be the best cheese of 2011, no doubt about it,” Houde predicted with a laugh. Although the cheese operation is too small to service supermarket chains, it is in demand in specialty cheese stores in Quebec, Ontario and

as far away as British Columbia. Customers drop in from across Canada and the northern New England states to buy cheese direct from the factory. Morin said that while the switch to organic was as much an environmental decision as a business one, it also has been good for business. Organic dairy products earn a premium in the market. Annual revenues from the dairy operation are $600,000. Revenues from the cheese operation are $1.2$1.6 million annually and he has had to expand the operation to try to keep up with demand.

FALL | COLOURFUL ARRANGEMENTS

Enjoy garden offerings year round IN THE COUNTRY GARDEN

ALBERT PARSONS

ow that most of the flowers have been cleaned off beds and borders and removed from containers, we are left with some uninteresting landscapes, which will be even more drab once the trees are bare. Add a bit of colour and interest to the outdoor landscape during the dreary season by using natural materials to create autumn displays. One easy way is to buy pots of fall chrysanthemums that are for sale everywhere. Most of these plants are not the hardy varieties, so although they will withstand cool temperatures and light frosts, lift them indoors on cold nights. They are best placed in sheltered areas such as a front entrance where they are somewhat protected. Use decorative gourds, mini pumpkins, decorative corn or even fullsized squash and pumpkins, purchased or grown in your own garden, to create wonderful autumn displays. Arrange them in a basket, perhaps accompanied by a bit of raffia or burlap and a decorative bow in fall colours, to create effective displays. Other plant materials used to create some interest outside are dark brown dock and stems of wild grasses like pampas grass. Hopefully, you cut some when they were starting to put forth seed heads. If you still have corn stalks or seed heads from the flower border, incorporate them into the display. Arrange this natural material in large containers. I call these large displays porch arrangements. Use access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

RIGHT: A large porch arrangement contains wild dock and pampas grass, amaranthus tassels and decorative corn. | ALBERT PARSONS PHOTOS outdoor flower containers, and if the display seems too brown without colour, add a few sprigs of artificial foliage or flowers as focal points. Alternatively, use a can of inexpensive floral spray to add colour to grass heads and dried leaves. This spray is water-soluble so it should only be used if the arrangement will not be exposed to rain. Empty planters look forlorn after plants are removed. Place smaller ones in storage for the winter, but larger ones or planters permanently fixed in place must remain. I often find evergreen boughs and push a few stems of these into the soil of the containers. It is amazing how the evergreen boughs dress up the containers and give the illusion that something is

still growing in them. I leave these boughs in place until spring. Add seasonal decorations to the outdoor environment. Colourful Halloween decorations, including scarecrows stuck in pots or a wreath sporting bright orange, red, and yellow colours hung near the entryway add bright spots of colour. The gardening season is over, but we still can make our yards attractive, tidy and welcoming during the yard’s down time. Add colourful autumn displays to the exterior landscape to make the fall garden even more attractive. Albert Parsons has a diploma in horticulture from Guelph University.

Trauma cause of nail bed infections

CLARE ROWSON, MD

My teenage son has ingrown toenails and as a result, he has a red, sore area that goes down the full length of one side of each big toenail. He has had this for at least six months. The sore areas weep and make his socks wet where the toe hits them. We went to the doctor twice, and both times he said to soak the feet in warm water. This did not help. Can you give us some advice?

From your excellent description, I am guessing that your son has a condition known as paronychia. This is a painful infection of

the skin and nail bed around the nails on either the hands or feet. It is three times more common in women than men, perhaps due to wearing high heels or shoes that are too short. This puts pressure on the toes that protrude the most — usually the big toe. Acute paronychia is due to trauma to the cuticle and bacteria enters the damaged area leading to infection. Nail biting or a hang nail can result in acute paronychia in the fingers. Chronic paronychia is usually caused by a yeast or fungal infection and can be persistent and difficult to eradicate. It can be caused by chronic exposure to water. This condition is often confused with an ingrown toenail, because both situations lead to redness, swelling and pain in the area around the nail. The difference is subtle, but a simple case of an ingrown toenail only affects the corner of the nail, where it cuts into the skin, while chronic paronychia affects the whole of one side or even encircles the whole nail. Your doctor is advising your son for

the treatment of either ingrown toenail or acute paronychia, which involves soaking the feet and sometimes oral antibiotics. If there is pus, it may need to be surgically drained. As it has gone on for six months, I think your son’s symptoms indicate the chronic type, which will require either an antifungal ointment applied to the area or perhaps even an oral antifungal medication. In severe and persistent cases, treatment may take months. If there is an ingrown toenail problem as well, then one solution is to cut the nail straight across instead of in a curve. This will help the nail to grow straighter at the corners. If this doesn’t work, then you can make a tiny v-cut at the top of the nail. Be careful not to cut into the nail bed. It may need to be bandaged until the v grows out, so that the nail does not catch and tear on the socks. Clare Rowson is a retired medical doctor in Belleville, Ont.

AERIAL SPRAYING | DAMAGE

Compensation for spray damage can be significant A:

THE LAW

RICK DANYLIUK, QC

My neighbour had aerial spraying done this year. It looks to me like some of the spray drifted onto my land. Some of my crops were damaged and trees in my shelterbelt are dying. Can I do anything about this?

Aerial crop spraying was once thought of as â&#x20AC;&#x153;unusual and dangerousâ&#x20AC;? when it was first introduced into Canada. In the 1950s, it was done in Canada on a purely experimental basis. A legal case from the mid-1960s called this operation unusual, but by 1975, courts had accepted crop dusting as an accepted part of agricultural practice in Canada. The phenomenon of drift or overspraying is well established in legal literature. Liability for aerial operators not taking proper care was quickly established. There were different theories as to how this liability could be established, but errors in the spraying

operations themselves were often the subject of damage awards. Flying beyond the borders of a field while still emitting spray often caused damage. Also, spraying in conditions when it was too windy resulted in drift that would potentially damage the growing crops and other nearby plants. There were also cases where livestock was harmed as a result of negligent aerial chemical applications. Damages can be substantial. In a 2003 Saskatchewan case, an adjoining farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trees, ornamental shrubs and plants and shelterbelt were harmed by overspraying. The Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bench judge assessed damages in excess of $33,000.

One factor that has emerged in recent years is the advent of new technology making aerial crop spraying safer and more accurate. The use of GPS systems and new nozzles for the chemical spray means that most aerial spraying is done with a high degree of accuracy. This has reduced the number of legal actions pertaining to aerial spraying in recent years. Communication can help. Sometimes if you know spraying will be occurring, livestock can be moved out of the danger zone. Discussions about particularly vulnerable or delicate plants can take place and can influence the manner in which the spray applicator conducts his opera-

tions. Neighbours should talk to each other to ensure there are no misunderstandings or unfortunate events. As well, provincial legislation has limited liability of some operators for aerial spray errors. The tort of nuisance has been limited or, in some cases, eliminated as a result of provincial protective legislation. A marked departure from the normal precautions involved in such spraying is often required. With the development of sophisticated equipment, spraying mishaps should be kept to a minimum.

When I try to help him set priorities and get better organized, he ignores what I have to say. In fairness, I think I have been pretty rude to him and even more so when I get impatient when things are not getting done. I just want him to be involved in a useful way around the farm and with me and our children and to be less obsessed with his worries.

Your first task is to learn to be gentle. Your husband probably heard his parents, teachers and friends telling him most of his life to hurry up, so he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to hear the same thing from you. And at times, his tendency to procrastinate may have worked in your favour. Maybe some of the issues over which he fretted saved you time or money. Maybe something in his past life led to his struggles. If he simply canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cope, suggest that he make an appointment with a mental health counsellor. Perhaps they can look at what is going on that makes decision making so difficult. In all probability, you and your husband are taking this whole thing too seriously. If you can joke around about his moment of great decision, maybe you will take the pressure off. I do not mean to demean the importance of decision making, but your husband is likely to resolve things more quickly when he is relaxed than when under pressure. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to reward him when he does make a decision. Your appreciation may encourage him to be more efficient in the future. access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none
