Will open markets bring investors?

Clubroot found in north-central Saskatchewan

Pasta plant planned | Demise of CWB played critical role in investment decision, says AGT president

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The developer of a proposed $50 million pasta and pulse processing facility in Regina says the pending demise of the Canadian Wheat

Board’s single desk factored into the decision.

“Marketing choice allows a valueadded processor to buy directly from farmers. That is a critical element of our investment decision. It is one of the elements that made this

announcement imminent,” said Alliance Grain Traders Inc. president Murad Al-Katib.

The federal government jumped on the Oct. 7 announcement of plans to build a durum mill and pasta plant in Saskatchewan as proof of its long-

held view that the open market it intends to create for wheat, barley and durum will lead to more valueadded processing on the Prairies.

Canola producer group unsurprised, disappointed

BURNING THE MIDNIGHT OIL

Clubroot has been confirmed in two canola fields in north-central Saskatchewan.

It marks the first time the soil-borne disease has been detected on a live canola plant in the province. It has previously been detected in Alberta and been found on canola in the Edmonton area since 2003.

“We’re far from happy that we have to announce this, but we’re just not surprised that we had to announce it,” said Brett Halstead, chair of the Saskatchewan Canola Development Commission.

“We’re very disappointed, but we knew it was probably going to be happening some day.”

The only other appearance of the disease in Saskatchewan was in a 2008 soil sample collected in the west-central portion of the province.

» MAN. AG POLICY: Little rural » CWB WARNING: The federal

Clubroot found in Saskatchewan Halstead said the recent discovery is more worrisome than the previous one because it involves living plants.

The provincial government has refused to release the location of the two farms because of privacy concerns and because it wants every farmer in the province to be vigilant, not just those in the two rural municipalities where the disease was found.

Faye Dokken-Bouchard, a plant disease specialist with Saskatchewan Agriculture, said the province will work with the farmers to develop management plans based on recommendations outlined in the Saskatchewan Clubroot Management Plan.

However, the province will not audit the producers to ensure the plan is followed.

The clubroot discovery was independent of the province’s annual plant survey, which found no signs of the disease in the 250 fields it inspected. Results of the 100 soil samples collected this growing season will not be available until early 2012.

Dokken-Bouchard is encouraged that root galls are the only symptoms found in the two fields where the disease was discovered.

There were no above ground symptoms such as stunting, wilting, yellowing, premature ripening and seed shriveling, which would indicate a more severe infection.

However, that doesn’t mean growers should let down their guard.

“We want people to be aware that it could be in more places than just these locations,” said DokkenBouchard.

“The potential risk is there and we need to be really vigilant about watching out for symptoms next year.”

The rule of thumb for clubroot and other diseases that prevent water and nutrient uptake in plants is that yield loss equals half of the level of infection.

This means that a field where 50 percent of the plants had the disease would

experience a 25 percent yield loss.

Clubroot has been detected in hundreds of fields in Alberta, with incidence levels reaching more than 70 percent in some cases. The Canola Council of Canada says wet conditions hastened the spread of the disease to new fields and new areas in Alberta this year.

Dokken-Bouchard doesn’t expect the clubroot problem in Saskatchewan to become as severe as it is in Alberta.

“We do feel it will not become widespread because we are practicing careful monitoring and prevention,” she said.

However, farmers need to remain vigilant because there are no control options for the disease. Some seed companies have clubroot resistant varieties, but Dokken-Bouchard said they are only resistant to the most prevalent pathotype of the disease.

Growers need to prevent movement of soil between fields by cleaning their equipment, growing no more than one canola crop every four years on a piece of land and scouting their crops regularly for root galls and other symptoms.

Halstead said farmers should be particularly careful when buying an air seeder. They need to inquire where it came from and thoroughly sanitize it before bringing it onto their land. They should also check out the equipment of pipeline and power crews who need access to their land to make sure they are not carrying contaminated soil.

Halstead is already instituting new management practices on his farm near Nokomis.

“I’ll probably monitor a little bit more. I’ve already pulled some plants out of the ground and looked at the roots,” he said.

Dokken-Bouchard said growers should contact Saskatchewan Agriculture if they suspect they may have a clubroot infection.

“We’re there to help,” she said.

NEW INVESTMENTS | FROM PAGE ONE

Marketing choices appealing “I think the fact that Murad and the business community is making this investment tells you that the change we’re making is a significant change to the business environment for secondary food processing in this part of the country and I think it’s a great development,” said prime minister Stephen Harper, who attended the Alliance news conference in Regina.

Groups such as the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association and the Alberta Barley Commission, which have long felt the wheat board is an impediment to processing, were thrilled with Alliance’s plans to build the first commercial-scale pasta plant on the Prairies in decades.

“I’m already planning to increase my durum acres next year,” said Cherilyn Nagel, past-president of the Wheat Growers.

The organizations think it will be the first of many such announcements.

Larry Martin, senior research fellow with the George Morris Centre, said the wheat, durum and barley processing sector has been restrained by the single desk, which forces processors to pay more for board grain than if they bought the crops directly from farmers.

“You end up paying a premium in Western Canada as if you were an importer for product that is produced in a surplus region,” said Martin.

“We haven’t had investment in Western Canada in the grain processing industry, and I think that will change.”

CWB chair Allen Oberg doesn’t agree that charging processors more for their raw material is a bad thing.

“I certainly don’t make any apologies for the Canadian Wheat Board getting the best price possible for farmers and I’ve never been of the belief that value-added processing should be built on the backs of farmers,” he said.

He denied allegations that the CWB has blocked the creation of milling and malting businesses on the Prairies.

“There is more value-adding on a per capita basis in Western Canada than there is in the western United States, where there never has been a single desk,” said Oberg.

Gordon Harrison, president of the Canadian National Millers Association, agreed that the amount of milling activity in Western Canada compares favourably with the states directly below the border.

“There is substantial wheat milling capacity in Western Canada. There has been substantial new investment in facilities in Western Canada and modernization of older plants.”

According to Grain & Milling Annual 2011, seven wheat and two durum milling plants operate on the Prairies. They account for 30 percent of Canada’s total wheat milling and 49 percent of its durum milling capacity.

Wade Sobkowich, executive director of the Western Grain Elevator Association, said eliminating the wheat board’s monopoly will create a friendlier environment for projects such as Prairie Pasta Producers, which blamed the board for thwarting its plans to build a $120 million durum mill and pasta plant in Western Canada.

“It paves the way for those types of

MURAD AL-KATIB ALLIANCE GRAIN TRADERS

things to happen,” he said in an i nt e r v i e w b e f o re t h e A l l i a n c e announcement.

“How quickly they’re going to happen remains to be seen.”

Sobkowich doesn’t expect a plethora of major processing investments on the Prairies immediately after the wheat board’s monopoly is removed, but he sounded prophetic about what might eventually happen.

“Over time it would make sense that we would see other ventures get started like a pasta plant or something like that,” he said.

Martin agreed that it may take a while for wheat, durum and barley processing to catch up with canola.

Canadian flour mills processed 2.9 million tonnes of wheat in 2010-11, compared to the record 6.3 million tonnes of canola processed last year.

Martin said there has been no new investment or plant expansions in Canada’s malt industry since the mid-1990s, and he doesn’t expect that to change soon because of new capacity south of the border.

Harrison said the trend in the flour milling industry is for destination plants that provide just-in-time delivery to food processors within a 200 kilometre radius of the mill.

Those plants want to be close to the big population centres, which are not in the West.

“Those economics of primary processing suggest that Western Canada’s share of milling capacity might not change very much.”

He said the North American market will dictate Canadian wheat milling capacity, particular in the U.S. market where the demand for wheat flour is on the decline.

“The export market is unlikely to drive huge growth because most countries are almost self-sufficient in milling capacity,” he said.

Two-thirds of the population of the U.S. is located directly south of Eastern Canada, which is why most of the milling activity takes place in Ontario.

Al-Katib is convinced that’s the wrong model for his company.

“We are an origin-based processor.

We like to locate assets at the raw material supply.”

Alliance has successfully used that model with its red lentil splitting plant in Regina and its durum milling and pasta production plants in Turkey.

“It’s absolutely a clash of ideologies,” said Al-Katib.

“We are convinced that Canada can be competitive in exporting our finished products around the world and we’ve proven that with the pulse business that we’ve built.”

The Alliance business model is to leave the waste byproducts of the processing plant in local feed markets and ship the finished product to customers around the world.

“We don’t want to ship waste around the world. We want to ship Arbella branded pasta around the world,” said Al-Katib.

Wheat, pulse processor planned Alliance Grain Traders | Facility will provide pasta for export

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Alliance Grain Traders Inc., a Regina-based international pulse export company, has announced plans to build a $50 million durum and pulse processing facility and pasta plant just west of the city.

The facilities will be located at the Global Transportation Hub, which houses a food distribution company, trucking and logistics experts. It is expected to open in 2013.

The pasta will be marketed under the Arbella brand used by AGT and its partners in Turkey. The company’s plant there sells pasta to more than 60 countries.

Alliance president Murad Al-Katib said the facility would not have gone ahead had the federal government not moved on its promise to end the Canadian Wheat Board’s monopoly.

“Without the elimination of the single desk we would not build a pasta plant in Regina,” he told reporters.

Although the wheat board’s buyback program doesn’t prevent pasta plants from operating, Al-Katib said

his company relies on origin-based processing.

“We need to be able to buy raw material directly from our farmers, control our contracting programs, control the quality and the varieties that are going to be going into our mix,” he said. “We’re selling a branded pasta product. It has to be the same every time we sell it.”

Grower relationships are critical, he said.

Gerrid Gust, chair of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association, said durum growers are looking forward to establishing those with AGT. “This is fantastic news for Canadian farmers,” he said. “Having a durum mill and pasta plant in our own backyard will give us another great marketing option. Murad will still have to earn my business, but he’s here.”

That will mean reduced transportation costs for farmers, he said.

Al-Katib said the plant will be a good fit with other businesses at the hub. AGT is the largest container intermodal shipper inWestern Canada in all sectors, he said.

“There’s equipment coming in full.

We’re the empty solution,” he said.

The facility will create 150 construction jobs and 60 full-time jobs once it opens.

AGT plans to mill wheat and pulses there, and produce pulse flours, proteins, starches and fibres, as well as pasta. It will offer packaging lines and retail distribution.

Prime minister Stephen Harper, on hand for the announcement along with Saskatchewan Conservative caucus members, noted there is no government money involved.

“What we are seeing here really is a new horizon, a new field of opportunity not just for western grain farmers but for workers and businesses in Western Canada generally,” he said.

AGT has 480 employees at 27 plants and offices in eight countries. It has 12 facilities in Canada.

Al-Katib said the world is ready for Saskatchewan grown and processed pasta. Other proposed plants didn’t go ahead for reasons including lack of capital and markets.

“We have markets, we have containers, we have financing and we have growers’ support,” he said.

“That’s a recipe for success.”

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT | END OF THE CWB

Harper pledges bill to end CWB will come ‘very soon’

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Prime minister Stephen Harper says the government will pass legislation to end the Canadian Wheat Board’s monopoly by next year, despite the NDP’s claims it will block the bill.

Speaking in Regina Oct. 7 at the Alliance Grain Traders’ announcement of a new $50 million durum and pulse processing facility and pasta plant, Harper said the bill will come forward soon after the House of Commons returns Oct. 17.

“Let me be very clear. Not only will the legislation come forward, it will be passed very soon,” he said to applause

from a crowd of invited gusts.

“We will have dual marketing in August for the next crop year and the reason I emphasize these points is this is a historic change that has been long overdue.”

Manitoba New Democrat MP Pat Martin has said a united opposition could delay the legislation, leaving the government unable to get it through Parliament in time to implement it next year.

A group of protesters, kept small by pouring rain, demonstrated outside Alliance Grain Traders’ Saskcan Agtech where Harper and Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall congratulated the company on its plans to

establish secondary food processing to complement its international pulse export business.

Harper spoke strongly of his government’s desire to put the monopoly issue to rest.

“It’s time for the wheat board and others who have been standing in the way to realize that this train is barrelling down a prairie track,” he said.

“You’re much better to get on it than to lie on the tracks because this is going ahead. It’s time for the wheat board to go out in a dual marketing environment, to cultivate its customers and provide a competitive service because those customers are going to have choice in the future.”

HORSES AND COMBINES DON’T MIX

ECONOMY | THIRD WORLD FOOD

Poor farmers see little benefit from high food prices Investment in public infrastructure needed in developing countries, say food security experts access=subscriber section=news,international_ag,none

MONTREAL — International food security experts are worried a 33 percent increase in the food price index during the past year will drive millions more of the world’s poor into food insecurity.

A billion people are already chronically undernourished, many of them subsistence farm families.

Those higher food prices should at least help developing world farmers earn more money to invest in their farms and increase local production.

William Masters, chair of the food and nutrition policy department at Tufts University in Massachusetts, says that is not how the world works.

Farmers benefit little from price spikes and can actually be hurt.

Most small-scale farmers in the developing world are also net food buyers so higher food prices cost them more than the increased value of anything they sell, he said in an Oct. 5 interview during a McGill University conference on global food security.

“The evidence is that higher food prices do not generally benefit farmers,” he said. “If you are a net buyer, even though there are higher prices, lenders have little incentive to lend to you for investment.”

Masters said farmers in the developing world also understand that food and grain prices fluctuate, so it would be a risk to borrow to expand production on the assumption that the higher prices will hold.

“You’d have to be a very foolish farmer indeed to invest in anticipation of next year offering as good prices as there are now.”

He also said that farm input costs rise along with food prices.

Masters said a greater problem for farmers hoping to benefit from higher incomes is that public infrastructure is not available to support them.

It is a “paradox of agriculture” that an entrepreneurial, competitive sector with trade secrets, patented technology and differentiated markets depends on public sector support through grading, inspecting and infrastructure, he said.

“We’ve learned the old-time lesson

Countries that have vibrant public support are the ones that have successful private sectors.

that agriculture is distinctly dependent on the public sector for the public investment that makes every farmer have access to technologies and a market that is necessary to make the public sector grow,” said Masters.

“Countries that have vibrant public support are the ones that have successful private sectors. We have neglected that public infrastructure for developing countries and it has had a huge impact.

GRAIN LOGISTICS | AFTER THE CWB

CWB changes will reach beyond wheat: industry watchdog Entire supply chain affected | Further consolidation of prairie grain elevators, expansion of railway powers predicted

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

It’s comforting for many in the grain industry to think that dropping the Canadian Wheat Board out of its centre won’t change much.

But the industry’s overseer doubts the transition will be that simple.

“Don’t think for a second that this isn’t going to change the whole logistics system at the same time, and not just for wheat,” Mark Hemmes, president of federally appointed grain monitor Quorum Corp., warned at the Fields on Wheels conference in Winnipeg.

“What we’re about to embark on is not something that’s just going to affect us in this room, or the people in Western Canada, or Canada. This is a global upset. It is going to have some remarkable reach.”

Hemmes said Canada’s position as one of the world’s dominant grain

exporters means any changes to grain flow and marketing from the country have a world impact. As a result, world grain traders will likely want to get involved in the new system.

“It is one huge opportunity for a lot of international players,” said Hemmes.

Grain industry players at the conference voiced conflicting views on whether ending the wheat board’s monopoly would be a major change or an incremental evolution of the prairie grain handling industry.

Some suggested it could be close to “business as usual” because more than a dozen crops already move in the open market.

But Hemmes said there will likely be significant impacts all along the supply chain that takes prairie grain from the farm to the overseas customer.

He expects that the consolidation

MARK HEMMES QUORUM CORP.

of the prairie grain elevator network, which has cut the number of prairie elevator points from more than 1,000 10 years ago to less than 360 today, will continue.

“I think (grain industry people) are right in saying there is going to be further rationalization.”

He said the wheat board has had a strong voice on grain car allocation and has been able to intercede on grain shippers’ behalf. Grain compa-

nies and farmers are becoming anxious about the railways’ power now that that voice is being eliminated or reduced, he added.

“It makes the railways the de facto kingmaker.”

He said the industry won’t have formal monitoring or regulated control of car allocation by the railways.

“In the past, the industry pretty much relied on the wheat board to do that for them.”

He said the fate of producer cars is also up in the air because 90 percent of producer car shipments contain board grain and are marketed by the board.

“The solution is to find some way to market that grain and producer cars w i l l c o n t i n u e t o t h r i v e ,” s a i d Hemmes.

“Without somebody marketing that grain, whether it’s a new CWB with their pooling options or whether it’s new marketing organizations that

come out of this, that’s where the opportunity lies.”

Some ports also handle mostly board grain, such as Prince Rupert, Churchill and Thunder Bay, so they need to ensure that somebody is marketing grain through them.

Canadian grain might also start moving south to the U.S. Gulf of Mexico coast, into the Mississippi system and through the U.S. Pacific Northwest.

As well, U.S. grain might start moving through Canada, especially if freight rates are attractive.

However, he doubted there would be much cross-border truck traffic by farmers. “ That’s going to last about 12 hours,” said Hemmes.

“I don’t think farmers are going to get too interested in trucking their grain south when they start to look at the trucking bills.” access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

2011 MANITOBA ELECTION MANITOBA ELECTION | REACTION

Farm groups hope for change Will gov’t support ag policy? | Farm groups call for stable funding programs STORIES BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Manitoba’s NDP government was re-elected with little support from farmers and rural areas.

But Manitoba’s most important farm organizations hope the Winnipeg-based government will support good agricultural policies.

They also hope that some of what they saw as legislative hostility to farmers in the latter days of the last government won’t carry through into the new version of the Greg Selinger regime.

“We’re always hopeful and we do want to see some issues resolved because we do want to see the industry grow and we are an important part of the economy,” said Cam Dahl, general manager of Manitoba Beef Producers.

Farmers liked some of the promises they heard during the election campaign, including a commitment to remove the educational portion of property tax from farmland.

Keystone Agricultural Producers hopes the NDP delivers on its sup-

However, in the days leading up to the election, the government introduced and passed the Save Lake Winnipeg Act, which placed regulatory controls on hog farmers and was generally seen by farm organizations as an unfair singling out of farmers as the

cause of Lake Winnipeg’s problems.

The act passed easily into law with opposition party support but prompted all of Manitoba’s largest farm organizations to unite against the law.

KAP president Doug Chorney hopes the election allows the government to come back into power with a

fresh view and less antagonism toward the hog industry.

“Although there’s been this regulatory approach to compliance, we think we need to work hard to make sure they understand that an incentive-based approach might be more effective to change management practices on farms,” said Chorney.

Manitoba Pork Council chair Karl Kynoch said he also thinks there’s a chance for a fresh start and more cooperative working relationships.

“The next couple of months is going to really tell us a lot,” said Kynoch.

“Hopefully going forward we can get into a better working relationship than we had in the past.”

Winnipeg residents voted for more of the same so Manitoba farmers also got more of the same: an NDP provincial government with almost no rural MLAs. Premier Greg Selinger promised in his victory speech Oct. 4 to serve all Manitoba residents, even if they are among the 43 percent who voted PC and more than 55 percent who voted for other parties.

“No matter who you voted for, thank you for participating. Thank you for getting involved in the democratic process. We will listen to your concerns,” said an elated Selinger, who took over as premier two years ago when Gary Doer stepped down.

“We will listen to your priorities.

And we will govern for all Manitobans, regardless of their politics, regardless of their region, regardless of their background. We will govern for all Manitobans.”

PCs dominated the voting in most

rural seats, but the NDP hung on to its two most rural seats in comfortable victories in the Swan River and Interlake constituencies. Agriculture minister Stan Struthers was easily re-elected in Dauphin.

All three constituencies are on the northern edge of the grain belt and many expected NDP ML A Tom Nevakshonoff to lose his Interlake seat after he made comments during the spring flooding that some considered insensitive.

The Swan River seat was formerly held by long-time former agriculture minister Rosann Wowchuk, who

chose not to run in this election.

Former Keystone Agricultural Producers president Ian Wishart was elected for the PCs in Portage la Prairie.

The NDP government will have a comfortable majority, with 37 seats to the PCs’ 19 and the Liberals’ one.

However, its 46 percent of the popular vote is only slightly ahead of the PCs’ 44 percent. The Liberals had seven percent and the Green party received three percent.

The disparity between the vote share and the seat share is explained by massive PC victories in rural areas and closer victories for the NDP in Winnipeg seats. The PCs won only four seats in Winnipeg, while the NDP received 23 and the Liberals one. With only 29 seats needed for a majority, winning Winnipeg plays a major role in winning a Manitoba election.

The NDP and PCs split the two seats in Brandon and the NDP took the four northern seats.

Wheat growers plant into dust No rain for a year | Texas has worst oneyear drought on record

How will wheat move in an open market system?

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The U.S. winter wheat crop is off to a worse start than last year, according to farm groups in the southern Plains. “We literally have had no rain in a year,� said Steelee Fischbacher, communications director with Texas Wheat Producers. “This is actually the worst oneyear drought on record for Texas, so we’re in a place that we’ve never been before.�

The U.S. Drought Monitor map shows that all of Texas, most of Oklahoma and the southern half of Kansas were experiencing exceptional drought as of Oct. 4.

Fischbacher said farmers will seed a crop for insurance purposes, but many growers know they’re heading for a wreck.

Growers in Texas had seeded 25 percent of the crop as of Oct. 2, half the normal amount. Emergence is spotty . “You can already tell that it’s not going to be a good crop,� said Fischbacher.

The La Nina drought gripping the southern Plains has been around since shortly after planting last year. It is the reason U.S. hard red winter wheat production fell 23 percent in 2011-12 despite a four percent increase in seeded acres.

But growers were at least planting into moisture last year. This year it’s dust and cracks. “It’s going to significantly impact the (yield) potential for the crop,� said Fischbacher.

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Kansas is the biggest winter wheat producer in the United States, accounting for 22 percent of the crop, followed by Texas at 13 percent and Oklahoma at 12.5 percent.

All three states are in the epicentre of the drought.

Thirty percent of the winter wheat crop had been planted in Oklahoma as of Oct. 2, compared to the previous five-year average of 49 percent. “There are parts in southwest Oklahoma that went over 200 days with less than a quarter inch (six millimetres) of rain,� said Mike Schulte, executive director of the Oklahoma Wheat Commission. “That is a long time to go without water.�

Growers never gave up hope that the rain would return, but they are

beginning to despair. “As we go into this planting season, there are major concerns that if we go into another La Nina pattern, that we definitely are going to have some severe problems on our hands,� said Schulte.

That ’s what fore casters are expecting. Last week, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said the La Nina weather pattern would strengthen and continue into next spring.

Bill Spiegel, director of communications with Kansas Wheat, doesn’t put too much stock in what impact La Nina will have. He’s also more optimistic about production prospects in his state than his counterparts in Texas and Oklahoma. “If we get some rain this fall we

The consensus in the grain industry is that canola moves more efficiently through the marketing pipeline than wheat.

However, experts at the recent Fields on Wheels conference in Winnipeg weren’t sure how much more efficient wheat shipments will be without the Canadian Wheat Board marketing monopoly. “I’m not sure that wheat will ever be as efficient on your measurements, your metrics, as canola precisely because of the grade pattern,� said University of Manitoba Transport Institute analyst Paul Earl. “Wheat is not just wheat. Canola, more or less, is just canola.�

He was referring to the many segregations of wheat based on grade, protein and type versus canola, which has fewer grades.

Earl was reacting to graphics and statistics showing that canola flows through the transportation system almost in a “just-in-time� manner, with comparatively little in storage within the system compared to the amount of the crop in motion.

Wheat, on the other hand, tends to have heavy stocks along the chain.

However, Jean-Marc Ruest of Richardson International, who provided the graphics, said he had no doubt that board grains would move more efficiently once the wheat board’s monopoly is gone.

He said the board system works on a production-push model, in which whatever is produced is pushed through the system toward port, even if buyers have not yet been found for the product.

Without the wheat board, companies would move to a demand-pull model, in which grain would flow into the system only when sales had been

like our chances,� he said.

Growers in the state had seeded 43 percent of the winter wheat crop as of Oct. 2, about average. Spiegel expects a 10 percent increase in winter wheat acres in Kansas. “We’ve got a lot of acres in wheat this fall that we haven’t had the last couple of years,� he said.

Farmers in northern Kansas have some subsoil moisture to seed into, but conditions are grim in the south. “It isn’t as bad as what we’ve seen on the nightly news in Texas with big old cracks in the soil that you could drop a log chain in, but it’s just so dry,� said Spiegel.

The good news for farmers in all three states is that weather forecasters were calling for widespread weekend rains as of Oct. 7.

PRICES | OATS

Weak oat prices could cause small 2012 crop Stocks tighten | Food companies struggle to contain input costs, consumer prices may rise JEAN-MARC RUEST RICHARDSON INTERNATIONAL

» CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE made and ships were on the way.

“If we were handling the pipeline from start to finish, and knew what was required to be loaded on board vessels … we, I firmly believe, would do a better job at ensuring that that specific quality, quantity and variety of grain was what was being sent to Vancouver, versus sending it all to Vancouver or Thunder Bay in all those different segregations, and then figuring out what needs to go on what vessel,” said Ruest.

Earl said he expects to see two opposing trends affecting the morecomplicated logistics system for wheat shipments.

There will likely be fewer segregations of wheat qualities and types without the bureaucratic control of the wheat board, but some buyers will demand specific quality and class characteristics, so market fragmentation will also occur.

Ruest said it is unclear whether all the present wheat divisions will survive after the end of the board system.

“Are we going to have all these segregations, all these different varietal considerations, etc.,” he said.

“It will be very interesting to watch to see whether wheat, barley continue to be so much more complicated to handle and store than what we see on the non-board side.”

WINNIPEG (Reuters) — North American oat stocks look to fall to a near-record low next year, tightening milling supplies even as food companies struggle to contain input costs.

High commodity prices for corn, sugar and cocoa have for the past year left food companies facing the dilemma of whether to absorb the costs or pass them to consumers.

However, the outlook for thin oat supplies in 2012-13 and the predictable bounce in prices is due to how relatively cheap the grain is now.

Oat prices have tumbled about 18 percent this year and look to strain supplies in two ways.

T h e i r l o w c o s t m ay i n c re a s e demand from the U.S. horse-feeding industry, which is already eager to avoid paying a hefty premium for corn, said oat industry analyst Randy Strychar of Oatinsight.com.

Oats have also lost price ground to canola and wheat, the two biggest Canadian crops, and may fall out of favour with farmers deciding in early 2012 what they will plant, he said.

“It doesn’t look good for oats next year,” Strychar said.

Canada is the world’s biggest oat exporter, shipping nearly two million tonnes annually to make cereals, oatmeal and granola bars.

Millers have covered their supply needs through 2011, but next year looks worrisome, said Terry Tyson, grain procurement manager for Grain Millers Inc., which operates Canadian and U.S. oat mills.

Canada is the world’s biggest oat exporter, shipping nearly two million tonnes annually. | FILE PHOTO “In the back of your mind, you’re thinking, ‘it’s going to tighten up,’ “ Tyson said from Yorkton, Sask.

“That is exactly what we worry about, that (farmers) aren’t going to have the incentive to plant.”

It will not take long for millers and the U.S. horse-feeding industry to chew through supplies after Canadian farmers harvested a third straight small crop this fall.

However, with millers well stocked for now, oats fell to the biggest dis-

count versus corn in at least three years in late August, before corn prices weakened and narrowed the gap to $2.80 US per bushel over oats.

Strychar expects North American ending stocks next summer to fall to 1.419 million tonnes, the smallest in five years. Canadian stocks are seen tumbling to 750,000 tonnes, according to Agriculture Canada.

Cash and futures prices have not yet risen to reflect next year’s supply worries, but thin stocks would even-

tually increase prices, Tyson said.

“If higher prices persist, then prices on the shelf go up.”

General Mills raised breakfast cereal prices last November, and food companies have kept a close eye on rising commodity costs, said Erin Lash, an analyst at Morningstar Inc. in Chicago.

Food companies hedge costs and buy much of their inputs through forward purchases, blunting some of the impact when prices rise.

But at some point, food companies recoup higher costs by raising retail prices, trimming expenses or reducing how much product goes into a package, Lash said.

“They have several weapons in their arsenal when it comes to offsetting commodity costs. ” Commodity prices have eased on jitters about the global economy, but it is unclear whether that trend will last long enough to ease costs for food companies, Lash said.

Much depends on how large a crop western Canadian farmers plant next year, and there’s a new variable to consider.

The Canadian government plans to dismantle the Canadian Wheat Board’s wheat and barley marketing monopoly next year.

An open market may make those grains more attractive to farmers than oats, Strychar said, but others said it is unclear how the marketing change will factor into the planting mix.

La Nina’s return raises chance for disruptive crop weather MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE MCMILLAN

The potential for crop price rallies this winter has increased with a forecast that the La Nina in the Pacific Ocean is strengthening.

L

a Ninas, which are the cooling of the ocean near South America, tend to bring dry conditions to Argentina and the U.S. southern plains. They tend to deliver excess moisture to Australia.

If that sounds familiar, it’s because there was a La Nina last fall. The system helped knock down U.S. hard winter wheat production by 23 percent from the previous year and Argentine soybean production by 10 percent. The drought in Texas and Oklahoma forced producers to deeply cull their cattle herds, raising the expectations for more record beef prices in 2012.

It helped produce a December deluge in eastern Australia that ruined grain quality.

It was weakening this year and by early summer it appeared we might be entering a neutral period with neither a La Nina nor an El Nino.

But it is becoming clear that a La Nina is reforming.

The U.S. Climate Prediction Center and Australia’s weather bureau both say predictive models show the La Nina will likely strengthen and continue into the northern hemisphere’s 2012 spring.

Right now it is weaker than it was at the same time last year, and forecasts suggest it won’t become as strong as last year’s event, which was the second strongest since record keeping began in 1879.

But it is already affecting South American crops. The dryness in Argentina has caused the agriculture department to forecast 2011-12 wheat production at 11 to 13 million tonnes, down from 14.7 million tonnes last year.

But rain arrived in early October, which should stop the deterioration as farmers begin the wheat harvest.

There is no official Argentine soybean forecast, but the U.S. Department of Agriculture forecasts 53 million, up from last year’s 49 million.

Rabobank thinks the dry weather will shave production to 51 million tonnes.

The threat of dr y weather has caused Brazil’s crop supply agency Conab to use normal yields in its first forecast for soybean production rather than last year’s record yield, which was produced thanks to excel-

lent rain despite the La Nina.

Applying the normal yield to the expected acreage produces a crop of 72.2 to 73.3 million tonnes, down from last year’s record 75.3 million.

The USDA’s forecast is 73.5 million and Rabobank’s is 74.3 million.

After a dry September, rain was moving into Brazil’s soybean regions just as seeding was to begin, which

limited the immediate threat.

As Brazil’s experience last year shows, a La Nina does not guarantee crop problems, but it increases the chance of them, depending on its strength and duration.

The La Nina effect is helping Australia’s wheat and canola crops. All areas of the country have received good rain and the country should

have a near record crop as long as there is not a repeat of torrential rain and flooding.

In Western Canada, La Nina tends to deliver colder than normal winters and the potential for wet springs, just as we have had the past two years.

WORLD GRAIN | ARGENTINA

Rain lends a hand to Argentine corn seeding Dryness delayed seeding last month | Wheat crop was damaged and recent rain may not be enough for some fields BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Heavy rain throughout Argentinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main agricultural area Oct. 7 will speed corn seeding and bring relief to wheat fields, although some wheat crops have b e e n i r re p a rab l y d a ma g e d by drought.

A lack of rain in September delayed corn seeding and battered wheat crops in Argentina. The South Amer-

ican grain powerhouse is a leading wheat exporter and the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 2 corn supplier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These showers will halt the losses in (wheat) yields, but the losses already suffered are irreversible, particularly in central-western parts of the Pampa region,â&#x20AC;? said Jose Luis Aiello, head of the Applied Climatology Consultancy in Buenos Aires province, which produces

m o re t ha n ha l f o f A r g e nt i naâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wheat.

Starting late Oct. 6, rain of up to 100 millimetres fell on Argentinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main farming belt, which includes the central provinces of Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Cordoba, La Pampa and Entre Rios. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before this, wheat fields had not gotten more than 20 mm of rain (in one go) for a month and a half,â&#x20AC;?

said Maximiliano Zavala, an analyst at the Buenos Aires Grains Exchange. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were suffering.â&#x20AC;?

More moisture is still needed .

Farmers in northern areas have begun harvesting wheat.

The new, welcome moisture will also allow farmers to speed up planting of 2011-12 corn and lay a good foundation for soybean seeding in

Cash cattle prices were resilient in the face of worries about the global economy. Futures also held up well.

Canadian packers have good supply, but American packers were active in the Alberta market, attracted in part by the weaker Canadian dollar.

The Canfax steer average for the week jumped $5.05 to $110.73 per hundredweight and heifers rose $5.28 to $110.28.

Most of the weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trade was reported on a live basis.

Stocker calf prices were generally $2-$3 higher. Middle weight feeders and yearling prices firmed $1-$2.

Feedlots are procuring as many heavy cattle as possible, but demand has been moderated by sluggish delivery of marketed fed cattle.

CLIMATE CHANGE | MISGUIDED METHODS

CRAIG’S VIEW

Meatless Monday initiative won’t affect global warming

M

eatless Monday is a toothless tiger but that hasn’t stopped this promotion from clawing at animal agriculture.

The Meatless Monday initiative, which began in about 2002 and seems to be steadily gaining supporters, encourages people to eliminate meat from their diets for one day each week as a way to protect the environment and reduce the impact of global climate change.

Those are worthy goals but reducing or eliminating meat from our diets is not going to achieve them.

Some agriculture groups believe the promotion is a front for a campaign to eliminate meat from the public’s everyday menu. Endorsement by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals of some Meatless Monday school lunch programs in the U.S. lends credence to that belief.

Among the skeptics is the U.S.-based Animal Agriculture Alliance, which this week released material designed to refute the claims of Meatless Monday proponents.

For starters, figures used in campaign data in both the United States and Canada are outdated and have been disputed.

Campaigners say that animal agriculture is responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas (GHG) production.

That figure, published in a United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization report in 2006, has since been criticized by many scientists as erroneous and the FAO itself has acknowledged flaws in its calculations.

Though revised numbers and estimates vary, Frank Mitloehner, an associate professor of animal science at the University of California, calculated livestock related GHG production at three percent.

Divide that number by seven, and forgoing meat for one day per week theoretically results in a .43 reduction in GHG. One wonders if the same reduction, or more, could be achieved if people gave up 10 minutes of daily car idling time while they wait at the drive-through for their Tim Hortons coffee.

Sure, maybe the tiger could grow teeth if everybody in the developed world decid-

ed to embrace Meatless Monday. Many small steps can lead to progress.

But that progress has other costs that most consumers don’t consider.

The greater travesty of Meatless Monday is its ignorance — or disregard, if one chooses to be charitable — of the gains cattle production in particular has made to reduce environmental impact. In the late 1800s, it took three to five years to finish a beef animal. Today it takes 24 months.

Improved nutrition, genetics and the use of implants and ionophores have made feedlots production about 40 percent more efficient than it was 60 years ago.

Livestock methane emissions were once considered a fact of life. Now, numerous research projects and funding are dedicated to GHG reduction through feeding regimens, additives and genetic development.

Feedlot production, the usual whipping boy of those who criticize the meat industry, has lower GHG emissions than the bucolic grass-fed cattle production that many see as a better alternative.

And what about the value of that grazing? The environmental benefits of using marginal land for raising livestock are profound. Well-managed grazing preserves native plants and animals, protects ecosystems, prevents erosion and sequesters carbon.

Given these considerations, one can see that Meatless Monday is a simplistic response to a complex and multi-faceted situation.

Jude Capper, an assistant professor in dairy science at Washington State University, puts it this way in a paper distributed by the Animal Agriculture Alliance: “We have at best a tenuous grasp on the immediate or long-term environmental consequences of the majority of our actions.

“Forget demonizing specific foods or suggesting that one single action can save the planet. We need to understand and quantify how all our choices have consequences — and act accordingly.”

HE SAID IT | REMARKABLE REACH

What we’re about to embark on is not something that’s just going to affect us in this room, or the people in Western Canada, or Canada. This is a global upset. It is going to have some remarkable reach.

FOOD SCARCITY | GOVERNMENT POLICY

Widespread hunger unacceptable as a political choice in a food-rich world NATIONAL VIEW

BARRY WILSON

U

nless you are a turkey, autumn is a blessed time in this most blessed of countries.

Harvest, Thanksgiving feasts, family are part of the tradition.

But that is an overview. Not all Canadians share in those benefits, those good times.

He was engaging in some over-thetop political rhetoric but on Oct. 7 as Canadians were getting ready to cel-

ebrate Thanksgiving weekend, Nova Scotia New Democrat Peter Stoffer noted in the House of Commons that Food Banks Canada says 910,000 Canadians have made use of food banks over the year.

Stoffer suggested that number do it regularly “making a total of 910,000 Canadians this Thanksgiving who will have to rely on the charity of a food bank to have sustenance over this weekend, including many veterans.”

Hyperbole or not, the MP was correct that tens if not hundreds of thousands of Canadians dined last Thanksgiving weekend thanks to charity.

In a country this rich, and this food rich, that is outrageous.

It is impossible not to make comparisons to a much poorer country with somewhat the same problem.

At a conference last week in Mon-

treal’s McGill University where global food security was on the menu, Guatemalan academic Ottoniel Monterroso made the point that his Central American countr y has enough food to go around but millions go hungry.

“At the national level, food availability is not a problem in Guatemala,” he said. “Yet more than 25 percent of the people are undernourished.”

Childhood malnutrition levels are the highest in the Americas.

The problem is not a lack of food but poverty and a lack of government commitment to deal with the disparity between urban residents and the poor rural and indigenous inhabitants of the country’s western Highlands.

And so it is as the world prepares to mark World Food Day Oct. 16.

The theme this year is “food prices

— from crisis to stability” and the official goal is to highlight why food prices fluctuate and how to alleviate the impact on the poor and most vulnerable.

It is not an unworthy objective but there is a deeper truth to ponder on World Food Day 2011 — in a world awash in food or certainly capable of producing as much food as necessary, close to one billion people are considered chronically undernourished, many of them starving.

Tens of millions of children are stunted because of a lack of nutrition, limited in their growth, their mental abilities, their chance of succeeding in the world.

Because of wars, natural disasters and other circumstances, the hungry always will be with us.

But the size of the constant army of

hungry, second only to the populations of China and India, is a shameful disgrace.

With the food and production technology available, hunger and malnutrition are a blight on our humanity.

Accepting hunger on that scale is a political choice governments make — governments that do not invest in their food producing sectors and governments that could help more and have other priorities. It is a choice their populations accept.

It is a time of year when we are thankful for our blessings.

We should also take a Thanksgiving or World Food Day moment to be thankful we are not hunger refugees depending on a bowl of rice a day or s u b s i s t e n c e f a r m e r s w i t h ju s t enough food to repeat the pattern again tomorrow. access=subscriber section=opinion,ag_policy,none

Water may be defining issue in future

Is farming the job of the century?

The following is an excerpt from the Canada West Foundation’s policy paper, “Wave of the future: Water policy in Western Canada,” by foundation president Roger Gibbins and policy analyst Larissa Sommerfeld

W

ater has the potential to be the defining issue for Western Canada in the coming years.

The topic of water and how it is managed is becoming more important than ever as decision-makers around the world talk about increasing food and energy prices, a growing world population and the potential effects of climate change.

But what does this global conversation mean for Western Canada?

More than 50 individuals involved in water management, governance or the study of water were brought together this past spring to talk about Western Canada’s current water challenges and priorities for the future. The Canada West Foundation hosted these discussions under the auspices of the Honourable James A. Richardson Discovery Roundtables.

Held across the West, the round tables were convened to determine whether regional patterns or similarities co-exist in Western Canada alongside strong provincial differences in terms of water policy.

There are a variety of water issues in

Western Canada, all of which are relevant to the economy, local cultures, ecosystem and human health.

In British Columbia, the potential for floods and droughts is a concern.

In southern Alberta, water scarcity and a possible water exchange are catching people’s interest. Water quality issues are prevalent wherever there is natural resource development and agricultural activity.

Challenges with water quality are perhaps most magnified in Manitoba, where the continued eutrophication of Lake Winnipeg affects not only ecosystem health but also human health and the local economy. Water quality on reserves and in rural areas is worrisome across the West.

Water challenges are real, and are here to stay. Policy makers must continue their work addressing these

matters, for current and future generations, before they come to a head.

And so, the Richardson round tables were deployed to identify the top priorities into which policymakers should invest their time and resources.

The depth of the topics demonstrate just how complicated water policy is, and how much work still needs to be done. And although the consultations were held only in western Canadian cities, the findings and recommendations derived from them are applicable on a nation– wide scale and are likely to be of interest to individuals living outside the West.

It is hoped that the rich source of ideas presented here will h e lp a d v a n c e t h e water policy discussion in Canada.

It was clear upon completion of the four round tables that there were more similarities than differences among the views of water policy experts across the West. This indicates that there is a western Canadian outlook when it comes to water policy, and also a similar sense of priorities.

The key highlights that were similar across all four provinces were: • Planning for the unknown is necessary.

• Data shortages, the polarized state of the water conversation, unclear terminology and a weak interface between research and policy create muddy waters that hamstring progress.

• Governance must be improved by reducing jurisdictional fragmentation making transboundary management more effective.

• There is a need to place value on aquatic natural capital.

• Improvements are needed in management that addresses the trade-offs between environmental and economic decisions, quantity and quality challenges and local watershed management.

• Changing societal attitudes and increasing public awareness are vital.

Although some themes were more prominent in some provinces, by and large the differences between the provinces lay not in overarching issues such as governance and concern for the future but in local challenges based on climatic and geographical variations. access=subscriber section=opinion,ag_policy,none

PRODUCTION ESTIMATES | STATISTICS

Statistics Canada numbers lose credibility HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

I

t’s hard to find a farmer who likes the acreage and crop production estimates from Statistics Canada. As farmers, we are wellserved by accurate, timely estimates.

Too bad that isn’t what we’re getting.

With thousands of producers surveyed in each province for each report, it’s likely that your phone is going to ring from time to time.

Unfortunately, fibbing to Statistics Canada is almost a matter of pride for many producers.

There’s a general view that the Statistics Canada reports just depress prices and we’d be better off without them.

No use showing the buyers your cards in the grain marketing poker game.

If there were no Statistics Canada surveys, do you really think buyers would operate in a vacuum? Large companies would do their own surveying and estimating, but their numbers wouldn’t be public. Farmers would have less information than buyers.

Statistics Canada needs to take several steps to become more relevant and accepted.

Timeliness is of greatest importance.

Farmers were surveyed Sept. 1-9 for the latest production report released Oct. 4. That’s way too much time lag.

A month is an eternity, especially at seeding and harvest. By the time the report is released it’s immediately in question because so many factors may have changed.

It’s also important for Statistics Canada to show more respect for producers.

If you can quote all your seeded acreage, yield information and grain stocks off the top of your head, you’re doing better than I. Give producers time to compile their information and maybe even find little perks to

reward them for their effort.

There also needs to be a better job of public relations to explain that the process is a benefit for the entire industry, farmers included. It may be better to have fewer producers surveyed if the information provided is more accurate and complete.

Without better farmer co-operation, the whole effort will become a sham. Just look what happened to the numbers for canaryseed in the last report.

Canaryseed is a relatively minor acreage crop grown almost entirely in Saskatchewan. It’s also a speculative crop that many producers grow and store waiting for price spikes.

In its September estimate of field crop production, Statistics Canada was forced to make major upward revisions to 2010 production levels.

Without this, their canaryseed inventory number would have been negative.

Makes you wonder if the carryover stocks estimate got out of kilter due to number fudging by producers.

For 2011, Statistics Canada has

canaryseed seeded acreage at just 190,000. The average yield is pegged at 944 pounds per acre for a total production of just 77,100 tonnes. We’ve been producing more than that even in major drought years like 2002.

For Aug. 1, 2011, the Statistics Canada estimate of canaryseed beginning stocks is a mere 39,000 tonnes.

Add to this the estimated crop of 77,100 tonnes and you get a total supply of just 116,100 tonnes.

Yearly exports over the past five years have been as low as 152,000 tonnes and as high as 204,000 tonnes.

The Mexican market is in question right now because of issues with quarantine weed seeds. Still, if Statistics Canada is even close to being right, canaryseed supply is extremely tight.

Canada dominates the world export market for canaryseed. Our prices should be spiking and farmers should be rejoicing. That hasn’t happened yet. Maybe no one trusts the numbers.

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

JOANNE PAULSON, EDITOR

T

he state of agriculture in North America has made it to the pages of Time magazine, which recently described farming as the best job of the 21st century.

I’ve made it through more than four decades of living on the Prairies and I have never, ever heard such a thing applied to farming in the economic, as opposed to the lifestyle, sense.

People even want to invest in farmland through mutual funds and other fancier options. Suddenly, farming is not just profitable, but kind of sexy.

That appeal is even trickling down to the next generation. In last week’s Western Producer, Kevin Hursh wrote about lecturing to an ag policy class at the University of Saskatchewan.

When he asked how many of the students planned to return to the family farm, even Hursh, who has noted that young people are getting more interested in farming, was amazed when half the hands went up.

Also in last week’s edition, we reported on Farm Credit Canada’s recent survey of farmers and consumers, in which FCC asked respondents if they would encourage friends or family to get into agriculture.

Eighty percent of the producers said they would. What would they have said 20 years ago? Ten years ago?

It was interesting to see the divergent opinions of consumers and producers in the survey results.

Everyone more or less agreed that farming could be described as weather-dependent (no kidding) but only 16 percent of producers described agriculture as struggling as compared to 40 percent of consumers. That’s quite a statistically significant disconnect.

On the other hand, 25 percent of producers said their industry was essential, while 39 percent of consumers said it was.

That’s interesting, too. I’m here to tell the other 75 percent of producer respondents that farming isn’t just essential but is increasingly seen to be so.

Otherwise, why would farming, and its prospects, be making headlines in publications like Time? Every conference I attend or speech I hear focuses on the point that there are more people in more countries who need to be fed. Those numbers keep rising. It has become something of a mantra to talk about population growth and farming’s role in feeding the world.

Maybe it’s not next-year country any more. Or maybe, as the Saskatchewan prudence comes out in me, we’ll find out next year. access=subscriber section=opinion,none,none

OPEN FORUM LETTERS POLICY:

BETTER RETURNS

Letters should be less than 300 words. Name, address and phone number must be included for verification purposes and only letters accepted for publication will be confirmed with the author.

To the Editor:

Open letters should be avoided; priority will be given to letters written exclusively for the Producer.

Editors reserve the right to reject or edit any letter for clarity, brevity, legality and good taste. Cuts will be indicated by ellipsis (…)

Publication of a letter does not imply endorsement by the Producer.

After reading Dwayne Marshman’s letter to the Editor (WP Sept. 1), I am shaking my head in wonderment.

I am trying to figure out how you can say we will lose our choice by being able to market our grain outside the Canadian Wheat Board.

As it is now we have no choice.

Farmers sell wheat and malt barley to the board or do not grow it. With that thinking, why do the strong board supporters grow canola, peas and oats? Oh, I know, because of the better returns than they get from board grains.

As for the storage premium, where

do you think that comes from? It comes from the pool account and is just another way the CWB tries to make you think that they are getting a bonus for you. The same is true of the malt barley storage premium. It comes from the pool account, not from some money tree in the back of the fancy CWB building in Winnipeg.

Another head scratcher is how you can compare the West with Ontario and Quebec. They can sell to whomever they choose and have many options for markets. Go there and tell them that they should be selling through a single desk system like we in the West have to and see the answer you will get.

If the board officials are really concerned about getting higher returns

for the farmers, then adopt a new strategy and move forward, because the way things are now will be changing. At least, they better. I hope.

Iver Johnson, Dundurn, Sask.

TINFOIL HATS To the Editor: Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz once called Canadian Wheat Board supporters the “tinfoil hat and decoder ring wearing” crowd.

It seems like the shoe is on the other foot these days. Ritz and Jeff Nielsen, the District 2 (anti) CWB director, access=subscriber section=letters,none,none

TD Canada Trust

have cooked up a bunch of conspiracy theories around the recent CWB meetings.

Since when did it become a bad business practice to prepare a presentation?

I would have been awfully ticked if I had left my farm to come in and see a bunch of directors standing there twiddling their thumbs.

And, oh my, people asked the same types of questions?

Could it be that farmers across the Prairies really are concerned about issues that affect their bottom line, like producer cars, the loss of premiums and advocacy?

Mr. Ritz: Hundreds of us left our farms at a critical time of year to come out to these meetings and to stand up for a board we believe in.

That doesn’t take much decoding now, does it?

Lin Larsen, Benalto, Alta.

COYOTE ATTACKS

With the right advice, the Martins were able to raise more than cattle.

To the Editor:

Matthew Martin Dairy Farmer

Dalton Potter TD Canada Trust Agriculture Specialist

The information in this letter is intended for the benefit and education of animal rights groups, particularly those who lobby for the protection of coyotes.

In June, a newborn calf on our farm was attacked by a coyote. It grabbed the calf by the tail, gave it a very severe yank, tore off most of the tail, ripped out the rectum and a portion of the skin in that area.

The tail was nearly ripped off the vertebrae (backbone). Needless to say we were forced to put the calf down due to its severe injuries.

This is a very common way for coyotes to attack a young calf. It usually immobilizes the calf due to destroyed nerves at the tail head. A year ago we found a calf partially eaten, but still alive.

Why do animal rights groups lobby for the protection of coyotes? I believe they are ignorant of the terrible torture and suffering coyotes impose on my calves.

George Hickie, Waldron, Sask.

THE OTHER GUY To the Editor:

TD is committed to helping farmers build for the future.

When the Martin family wanted to raise the productivity of their dairy business, they turned to Dalton Potter for guidance. Dalton is a seasoned TD Canada Trust Agriculture Specialist and a farmer himself, and with his help, the Martins were able to buy a new farm in a prime location. Our understanding of agriculture and financing, combined with a personalized approach, is how we’re helping families like the Martins get exactly what they’re looking for.

The Canadian Wheat Board discussion has gone on for months and just like an election, most of us get to the point of not caring. We discussed this with friends, neighbours and family, about the pros and cons. We have, however, forgotten one factor: the Americans.

If the CWB is struck down, for most, especially in the south country, we will venture south of the border to gain new markets. We already see signs of discontent at the canola plants in the U.S. when Canadian trucks double up the lineup.

Can you imagine when thousands of Canadian trucks carrying wheat hit the northern U.S. grain elevators?

What will the local farmers say down there? What will the prices do?

Before we get all excited about the new horizon in marketing, we had better find out if the farmers of Montana and North Dakota will allow us to plug up their elevators.

OPINION We had better find out if their railroads are better at moving grain compared to ours.

Imagine driving 100 miles and waiting in line for hours only to be told to either come back tomorrow or take your load home as the elevator is full.

Will the politicians in the U.S. be forced to place embargos on Canadian grain or will the U.S. customs make it a living “H” to get across? Will new laws be posted where only American trucks can haul in the U.S.?

Your new super Bs will not make it as they are almost banned as it is now.

In closing, I believe that maybe we should look a little deeper into this, as it truly does not only involve Canadian farmers but other farmers on the other side of the 49th.

Are we just opening up a can of worms, which will eat us up? If you

have the answers, write in and tell this paper and enlighten me.

Bob Thomas, Regina Beach, Sask.

CWB DEMISE To the Editor: I have heard of people committing suicide. There is also assisted suicide, where someone helps one to commit their own demise.

But up to now I have never heard of forced suicide. This is what our minister of agriculture is asking the Canadian Wheat Board to do.

After six years of governing Canada and constantly harping about giving people freedom and choice to market wheat and barley, the best this strong majority government can do is

force the CWB to commit suicide.

Can you imagine being a salesperson of grain going into another country selling grain on a voluntary basis?

What can you give me for grain that I might be able to deliver next January?

It might be No. 3 or, well, I just can’t say what it might be. You see, I don’t know what quality or amount the volunteers are going to be selling, but I’m sure it’s going to be good.

Do you think the CWB can pull off crap like that?

How many of you remember when the Conservatives sat in opposition?

Remember how they used to say that marketing boards might not be so bad if you could keep politicians out of them, or maybe they meant to say if you can keep the Liberals out of the CWB. Wow, look what these people are doing.

Not only can they not leave their fingers off the CWB, (they) want to

cannibalize the whole thing. Shame on you.

Peter P. Sehn, Maple Creek, Sask.

FEEDING THE WORLD To the Editor: In response to “Scientific advances help feed the world” (WP op-ed, Sept. 8).

Feeding the world does not necessarily translate into providing nutritious food. One has to look no further than the frequency of allergies, asthma, attention deficit disorder, depression, arteriosclerosis, degenerative diseases, cancer, obesity, diabetes, etc. to determine the quality of our food. Is our health the result of the methods of increasing plant

production or food processing?

Nutritious crops cannot be grown on low quality soils. Technology, born out of science, cannot take into account all the variables within nature’s complex network of relationships. High tech solutions to low tech problems are not sustainable because technology is only able to address symptoms, not overcome problems.

Improving soil health increases both nutritional quality and yield of crops. When health is returned to the world’s soils, health will return to the people.

There is too much money made from products combating the symptoms of poor soil health to allow agronomy to chart a sustainable course.

UNSTOPPABLE YIELD MOMENTUM

Our canola hybrids are delivering year-over-year yield improvement that is blowing the competition away.

Unsurpassed research and development in genetics power a canola lineup with yield potential that just keeps growing. And our new 73 Series hybrids, some of which were introduced in 2010, offer some of the highest yields we’ve ever produced. Yield momentum that’s unstoppable—only available from DEKALB.

Many young people dream of travel when they finish high school. They also dream of heading to places their parents and grandparents have hardly heard about, such as Costa Rica, Ecuador and Patagonia.

The family has no contacts there and no familiar places to suggest as safety zones.

Nor do these family members feel reassured that their kids can keep in touch through cyber services that are so much a part of today’s world.

I think of one young friend in our small community whose thoughts were bristling with dreams of adventure. She was more than ready to follow her friends through South America.

But her grandmother was more than horrified. TV and newspaper reports and word-of-mouth told stories of corruptions, disappearances and drug misadventures. I could tell from her daily musings that Grandmother was worried sick. Until now she’d been able to do what she could to protect what was precious. Hopefully, she would be able to persuade this naive child to abort her plans.

Of course that wasn’t about to happen. The time had come to have a chat with my elderly friend, to listen while she voiced her concerns and then place my request.

“Before Diane goes,” I pleaded, “I’m asking you to give her your blessing.

Of course you can start by telling her how worried you are. But then you need to tell her you will pray for her well-being and her safe travels.”

I reminded her how appreciated her words would be. If anything happened to you, whom she has loved all these years, while she was away, she wouldn’t have to carry around an additional burden of guilt or regret.

“By telling your fear and giving your blessing, you are sharing the wisdom that all of us treasure.”

Greg Marshall has resigned as president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan in a letter to the board and staff.

Marshall suffered a near-fatal heart attack recently and after emergency surgery is recovering at home. His resignation was announced Oct. 6.

The board of directors has agreed that vice-presidents Don Connick and Arlynn Kurtz will jointly assume the president’s duties until annual elections scheduled for Dec. 9 during the APAS general meeting.

Marshall was elected an APAS district representative in 2005 and became president in 2008.

One implant. That’s it. You’re done!

New SARM office planned Lack of space forces move

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities employees who squeeze into the organization’s Regina head office are looking forward to some breathing room.

In fact, a new planned head office would allow all employees to be in the same building.

SARM announced late last month that it has bought property from SaskPower for $625,000.

The four lots are behind the existing SARM head office. The crown corporation had been using the site as an employee parking lot.

SARM president David Marit said the two-storey head office is too small for an organization that has grown and accepted additional duties from the provincial government.

SARM has about 25 employees. The four who work on bridge and road engineering projects are based in another building because of the cramped space.

The organization’s boardroom also contains several small offices that aren’t ideal for the employees, Marit said.

“Our discussion now will be to what size we’re going to build.”

SARM will need two floors of space, but the final design will include one or two extra floors for tenants.

“We’ve had informal talks about rental space at commercial rates,” Marit said. “We’re not going to overbuild it. Two floors will be enough for us.”

The existing building has been appraised and will be sold once the new one is complete. Marit expects the move to occur by fall 2013.

The board approached the 298 member rural municipalities two years ago about the need to start a building fund. The funds raised since then will pay for the land purchase, Marit said.

BRINGING IN THE HARVEST BOUNTY

RECYCLING | CONTAINERS

Company seeks increase in container returns Uses abound for recycled materials

BY JOHN B. PLUCK SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A company that recycles 4.5 million pounds of plastic a year from empty farm pesticide containers doesn’t believe it has gone far enough.

Clean Farms Inc.’s new recycling awareness campaign provides information to farmers and commercial pesticide dealers about the environmental benefits of recycling.

General manager Barry Friesen said he believes farmers need to be aware that recycling plays a significant role in helping to protect the environment.

He said the company wants to increase its recovery rate on pesticide containers in commercial use to 80 percent from 64 percent.

The empty pesticide container recycling program varies between provinces.

Saskatchewan farmers take empty containers to farm pesticide dealers for collection, while in other provinces they go to municipal collection depots.

Clean Farms collects the containers from drop-off sites and shreds the plastic for collection by recycling companies.

Friesen said there’s a limit to what the recycled material can be used for because the containers used to contain pesticides.

Farm drainage tiles are the main product, but the plastic is also used in the manufacture of industrial garbage cans.

The program collects pesticide containers smaller than 23 litres.

Farmers, horticultural operators and golf course operators can deliver the empty containers to more than 1,150 recycling pick-up sites. The program had returned 83 million empty crop protection product containers for recycling as of 2009.

Friesen believes the company’s recycling program is one of the most successful voluntary waste disposal programs in Canada. He said Clean Farms is looking beyond pesticide container recycling to other plastic products, such as grain bag collection.

Clean Farms received $25,000 from the Canadian and Manitoba governments in January to examine the best ways to collect and manage agricultural waste generated on farms. The empty pesticides container recycling program has been in operation since 1989.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

GRAIN TRANSPORTATION | RAIL LINE PURCHASE

Group considers buying abandoned railway lines Northeastern Saskatchewan | The two lines, when operated in conjunction with an active CN line, would improve access to Churchill

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A group in northeastern Saskatchewan is looking at buying, upgrading and operating two sections of railway slated for abandonment.

The Tisdale subcommittee is interested in two sections of unused track known as CN Tisdale.

One section of the track runs east from Birch Hills, while the other runs west from Hudson Bay toward Tisdale.

The two sections of track are connected by a shorter piece of track that is still owned and operated by Canadian National Railway.

New owners would likely require a commercial running rights agreement with CN if they wanted to ship products directly from Birch Hills to Hudson Bay. CN Tisdale is considered by many to be a potentially viable rail link because it could provide a more direct route from north-central and northeastern Saskatchewan to the Port of Churchill in northern Manitoba.

Goods shipped to Hudson Bay would continue on to The Pas, Man., and then be transferred to a line owned by OmniTrax Canada that connects The Pas to Churchill.

The CN Tisdale line, if operable, could move grain, lumber and potash to port position on a northeasterly route rather than shipping them east to Thunder Bay or west to Vancouver or Prince Rupert, B.C. Hudson Bay Route Association president Sinclair Harrison said the Tisdale subcommittee has already received an estimate of the line’s salvage value at $4 to $4.5 million.

The next step is to take a closer look at the track to see how much money would be required to repair or upgrade portions that have not been used or serviced for years.

The group, along with OmniTrax Canada, is hoping to put out a call for proposals this fall, inviting companies and consultants to conduct an engineering study on the two sections of track.

The study will determine how much money would be required to

upgrade.

Federal legislation requires that prairie rail lines slated for abandonment must be offered for sale before they are torn up.

Salvage value of a rail line is an important consideration because prospective offers normally must equal or exceed a line’s salvage value.

Harrison said rural municipalities along the Tisdale line and other RMs within the line’s catchment area are being approached to determine whether there is sufficient local support to acquire the line.

He said the Tisdale subcommittee would like to have the engineering study completed before the snow flies.

“It’s sort of a hurry up offence,” said Harrison.

“We’d like this study completed as soon as possible so interested parties have time to get their ducks in a row for negotiations (with CN).”

Companies interested in buying the line will likely be required to submit their bids starting next summer. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

In a whole different ballpark.

Micronutrient Technology so advanced, there’s no comparison

Agriculture is expected to be a winner as the new Parliament gets back to work, led by a majority government with a strong trade agenda.

Senior officials from the international trade department told the House of Commons trade committee Sept. 29 that trade deals negotiated but not yet passed by Parliament have potential benefits for agriculture.

Legislation to implement the deals was debated but not approved.

Kirsten Hillman, director general of the department’s trade negotiations bureau, told MPs that a free trade deal negotiated with Panama has some of the greatest potential. It is one of the fastest growing economies in the region and already has a twoway trade with Canada of more than $200 million.

“Once in force, this agreement will provide important commercial gains for the Canadian economy by offering Canadian workers and businesses preferential access to this dynamic and growing market,” she said.

“Panama will eliminate tariffs on 99.9 percent of recent non-agricultural imports from Canada. Panamanian tariffs on 88 percent of Canadian agricultural imports will also be immediately eliminated.”

She said Panama has also negotiated free trade deals with the United States and the European Union.

“So it’s important that we implement this agreement to ensure that Canadian companies remain competitive in the Panamanian market and do not compete against their competitors on an uneven playing field,” she said.

Hillman said another priority is the Canada-Jordan free trade agreement, which remains unapproved. It was signed in June 2009 but still has not been ratified by Parliament.

Canada-Jordan trade is much smaller, valued at just $86 million in 2010, but it is an expanding market and offers a window on the broader Middle East market.

She said the deal will eliminate tariffs on 99 percent of products recently shipped by Canada. Tariffs are now 11 to 30 percent.

“Key Canadian sectors will benefit from duty-free access including forest products, machinery and agricultural exports such as pulses, frozen potato products and beef,” said Hillman. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

CANADIAN WHEAT BOARD | RAILWAYS, GRAIN COMPANIES

Dismantling the wheat board has repercussions: Goodale Producer cars at risk | Producers’ power could erode with CWB demise

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Deputy Liberal leader Ralph Goodale says the threads of Conservative policy on the prairie grain system will weave a tapestry of weaker producer power and stronger corporations.

He said dismantling the Canadian Wheat Board monopoly is just one of the pieces in a broader Conservative strategy.

He predicted farmer access to producer cars will be undermined, the Canadian Grain Commission weakened and the eventual government response to the rail service review recommendations inadequate.

He said senior Conservatives have also mused about ending the railway revenue cap built into grain transportation legislation.

“I think the system could end up completely tilted against the individual producers and very much in favour of railways and grain companies because all of the safeguards and the players in the system like the wheat board or the grain commission that have a role to defend the farmer’s interest will be either eliminated entirely or reduced to meaninglessness,” said Goodale.

He was reminded that Liberal transport minister Doug Young also went on a campaign of rail deregulation and policy changes in the mid-

This really could keep the right to a producer car on the books but make it meaningless.

RALPH GOODALE SASKATCHEWAN MP

1990s, including announcing an end to the Crow Benefit, amending transport legislation and selling the government-owned Canadian National Railway.

Goodale opposed many of these measures as agriculture minister.

“Unfortunately, a transport minister becoming a captive of the railways crosses party lines,” he said.

However, he also insisted that Young’s moves in the 1990s were different from what he sees happening now.

“The distinction I think is that Young would have seen his approach as essentially practical, where the current approach is fundamentally ideological,” he said.

“There seems to be a rigidity and

The New Generation!

mindlessness in the approach this government has taken where no bit of argument or evidence will be allowed to contaminate the ideological purity of what they choose to do.”

Goodale is sponsoring a private member’s bill that would make it more difficult for railways to abandon producer car loading sites.

He said proposals to agriculture minister Gerry Ritz on how to implement an end to the CWB monopoly would reduce producer cars’ priority in the system and allow them to be loaded only if the producer has a buyer waiting.

“This really could keep the right to a producer car on the books but make it meaningless,” he said.

Goodale also predicted that the government won’t respond adequately to a Rail Freight Service Review recommendation that legislation be tabled to give shippers clout in trying to negotiate service agreements with railways.

The report was completed a year ago but the bureaucratic response has been slow and legislation likely will not be presented before fall 2012.

“Given this delay, the railways undoubtedly have been flogging the (transport) minister behind the scenes,” said Goodale.

“I think the risk of legislation not appearing, the initiative just withering away or being so watered down as to be irrelevant, is very high.”

FIELDS ON WHEELS | CANADIAN WHEAT BOARD

Government involvement will remain after wheat board: Lang Meetings explore post CWB era | Participants confident the industry can adapt without plethora of new regulations STORIES BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Otto Lang brought rain clouds to a meeting that was otherwise brightly optimistic about the grain industry’s ability to adopt to life without the Canadian Wheat Board’s single desk.

Most of those attending the Fields on Wheels conference organized by the University of Manitoba’s Transport Institute insisted that the industry can adapt without many new regulations.

But Lang disagreed.

“No matter what system you have, don’t think that you’re going to be

able to get away from the wish or the need to have government involvement in different ways,” the Trudeauera wheat board minister said.

Lang argued that the prairie grain industry is dominated by an oligopoly of grain companies and “something between an oligopoly and a monopoly” of railway companies.

“Both of those things are, for the economists, worrying signals,” said Lang.

Prices to farmers for board grain are likely to be lower than within the monopoly system, he added, because grain companies will need

OTTO LANG FORMER CANADIAN WHEAT BOARD MINISTER

to take a premium out of prices to cover their risk of not being able to get grain they’ve promised to sell.

“It will mean a higher margin. It will

clearly mean a need to charge for risk,” said Lang.

Prairie farmers and other members of the grain industry will also need to ensure that Canada’s reputation for quality and dependability, built up by wheat board consistency, doesn’t get undermined.

“We will have a constant issue of making sure those who report and sell grain on the behalf of producers out here don’t renege.”

Lang said the wheat board’s most fundamental value is its ability to make sales knowing exactly how much grain it has to sell.

“Any thought that there would be a Canadian Wheat Board without that value was just impossible thinking,” Lang said of his first reaction when he heard the government was attempting to form a post-monopoly CWB. “I mean, why? What is it? Is it something in the letters C, W, B? Are there others that if there is a role to fill wouldn’t fill it? … That ability to have the known supply at hand is the value of the Canadian Wheat Board. Those who talk of a board without that, when that is the value of the board, are really not making a great deal of sense.” access=subscriber section=news,none,none

The government won’t drag its feet when introducing legislation to end the Canadian Wheat Board’s monopoly, a senior Agriculture Canada official told a grain industry conference in Winnipeg.

It hopes to have the new law in place for the beginning of 2012.

“Our intention, if Parliament were to pass the legislation, of course, is to create the opportunity for everybody to trade grains, all grains, starting in January 2012,” Greg Meredith, assistant deputy minister for the department’s strategic policy branch, told the Fields on Wheels conference.

“The minister, I can tell you, is very determined.… He is determined to bring legislation into the House this fall that will create an open market for wheat and barley and durum by August 1, 2012. We’re very cognizant of the need to move quickly on this.”

Meredith said passing legislation by late 2011 “is an ambitious timetable,” but he praised the Working Group on Marketing Freedom for its comprehensive recommendations on how the new system should be structured.

He said competition in the new system would need to be monitored, but the Working Group, with which he worked closely, doesn’t want to impose regulations before they are necessary.

“I think we came to a common view that we should at least try to let the market work, and see what the entrepreneurial energy of companies and producers actually comes up with before we intervene,” said Meredith.

“The real drive behind what we’re doing is to try to deregulate an industry that has enormous pent-up energy and enormous pent-up entrepreneurial opportunity. Removing one form of regulations merely to institute another seemed unwise, or at least precipitous.”

ECONOMY | INTERNATIONAL RELIEF EFFORTS

Economic woes could force changes to aid One billion hungry | Increasing population, limited food supplies and rising prices tax resources

OTTAWA BUREAU

MONTREAL — International cooperation minister Bev Oda is warning that international economic turbulence could limit the world’s ability or willingness to respond to a growing world hunger crisis.

That will definitely be the case in Canada.

“The government has undertaken an exercise to reduce the deficit,” Oda said.

“Clearly, that’s right across the board and that includes CIDA (Canadian International Development Agency). We have to do our share to contribute to deficit reduction.”

She said the result could be “some alterations. We might not be able to do as great a span as what we’re doing. We’ll have to make some tough choices.”

However, Oda vowed that Canada will continue to invest in developing world agriculture and contribute to famine relief efforts because Canadians care about the issue.

In an earlier speech at a McGill University conference on global food security, she said Canadians have donated more than $70 million to famine relief in East Africa and the government will match that in addition to $72 million Ottawa had pledged earlier.

It will bring the Canadian government contribution to East African drought and famine relief to more than $140 million, the fifth largest contribution in the world.

The United Nations says millions of people are hungry in the region and at risk of starvation, while many are displaced because of the worst East African drought in a generation.

“Canadians have just demonstrated that they care about people in other countries (and) we’ll keep that in mind and ensure that when people are in need, Canada will be there,” said Oda. “I assure you that … we will continue to look at what we’re doing in agriculture. We’ve all recognized as United Nations countries that we have to think about how can we reestablish the agricultural sector in that region.”

She said in April Canada became the first developed country to fulfill its share of a 2009 international commitment to spend $20 billion on agricultural development projects in developing countries. Canada’s share was $1.18 billion.

However, she said the international commitment to development aid is affected by market and economic turmoil as countries struggle to avoid a recession.

Some European countries are cutting their aid commitments, Japan is limiting its contribution and switching from grants to loans and the United States is looking at its aid budget as it tries to tame a ballooning deficit.

The moves come as food prices rise again, hurting the ability of the poor to feed themselves.

“This has all had an impact and we

will be monitoring it,” she said.

Speakers at the McGill conference reported that the world hunger problem is getting worse with close to one billion people considered chronically hungry.

An increase of 33 percent in the food price index over the past year pushed another 44 million people onto the list, the World Bank estimates.

FOOD SECURITY | PRICES

Falling food prices won’t ease volatility worries Prices hit record high in February | Decreases now expected but bumpy ride predicted for the foreseeable future MILAN, Italy (Reuters) — World food prices are expected to fall again after sliding in September under pressure from increased grain supplies and lower demand.

However, global economic uncertainty and still tight cereal reserves would add volatility to prices, said Abdolreza Abbassian, a senior economist and grain analyst at the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization.

“It is likely that the prices will remain under a downward pressure for some time,” Abbassian said following the FAO’s announcement that its global food price index fell two percent in September from August as the cereal crop outlook improved.

“I think volatility will remain with us, unfortunately,” Abbassian said.

“We are in for a very bumpy period ahead.”

World food prices came into the limelight after they hit record highs in February and were a factor in the Arab Spring wave of unrest in north Africa and the Middle East.

The FAO’s food price index, which

measures monthly price changes for a food basket of cereals, oilseeds, dairy, meat and sugar, averaged 225 points in September, 4.5 points down from August because of a decline in grain, sugar and edible oil prices.

The September index was 13 points below the peak of 238 points reached in February, when it triggered fears of a repetition of the 2008 food crisis that sparked riots in poor countries.

Global food prices have fallen in the last few months, and a drop in September mirrored the situation on the main commodities markets, Abbassian said.

Investor concerns about a global economic slowdown, which may undercut demand, helped fuel a selloff on international grain markets in September.

Benchmark U.S. corn futures plunged 23 percent in September, hit by larger-than-expected supplies. It was the biggest monthly drop in more than 15 years.

The FAO has raised its 2011 cereal output estimate to 2.31 billion tonnes, three million tonnes above

October 25 - 27, 2011 Saskatchewan

its previous view. The revision is driven by a 4.6 percent annual rise in global wheat production to 685.2 million tonnes on the back of better crops in Europe and Asia.

Cereal output in Russia, which was hit by a severe drought last year, is expected to jump 46 percent to 87.6 million tonnes in 2011, the FAO said. Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin said the country would harvest 95 million tonnes of grain this year.

Looking ahead, the FAO said wheat planting conditions were generally favourable in the northern hemisphere, apart from the United States.

Given attractive prices, farmers are expected to keep similar planted areas or increase them.

Global rice output is expected to increase three percent this year and world production of coarse grains such as corn and barley is seen rising 2.1 percent.

However, it also said world cereal markets were likely to remain fairly tight in 2011 and 2012.

“Despite the expected production gains ... because of the slowdown in the global economic recovery and increased risks of recession, there is uncertainty as regards the impact on world food security,” the agency said.

Worsening economic conditions could lead to higher unemployment and lower incomes for the vulnerable and needy in the developing countries, it added.

Abbassian said there have been recent signs of grain demand rationing, but a greater increase in supplies was needed to considerably rebuild stocks and boost food security.

Global cereal stocks by the close of the season in 2012 are forecast at 494 million tonnes, seven million tonnes up from their opening level, the FAO said.

The increase would be driven mostly by a 10 million tonne buildup of world rice inventories.

LIVESTOCK | DISEASE WORRY

E. coli fears prompt U.S. meat recall WASHINGTON, D.C. (Reuters) — A California meat company is recalling 80,000 pounds of beef products over possible E. coli contamination, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said.

“The establishment is recalling a variety of beef primal and subprimal cuts … and manufacturing trim-

mings due, in part, to insanitary conditions as reflected by an unusually high number of confirmed positive E. coli” test results, the USDA said Sept. 30.

Manning Beef produced the products Sept. 23 and shipped them from its facility in Pico Rivera, California, to retail establishments and food

service centres in Arizona and California and to another federally regulated establishment in Nebraska, the USDA statement said.

The E. coli variety that may be involved, O157:H7, is a bacterium that can cause bloody diarrhea, dehydration, and in the most severe cases, kidney failure.

NEWS STABILITY | AID

Tackling hunger weighty task Making progress on hunger STORIES BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

MONTREAL — When McGill University assembled panels of international experts to discuss world food stability at a three-day conference last week, the goal was to arrive at answers.

However, speeches and panels at the conference mainly illustrated how vast and intractable the problem seems to be.

Close to a billion people are considered chronically food insecure and the number is growing by tens of millions because of drought in the Horn of Africa and a 33 percent spike in food prices.

International agency officials offered hope that jargon-filled processes and plans about collaboration and government investment would make a difference.

There were some reports or predictions of progress.

Tufts University food and nutritional policy chair Will Masters said there are encouraging trends.

In Asia, slow improvements have been made over 30 years in poverty reduction and food stability.

“Africa tends to parallel Asia but 20 years later,” he said. “Long-term trends promise gradual improvement.”

Dudley Adolph, chief director for farmer support and development in the Western Cape area of southern South Africa, said the situation is looking up in his area.

“Fewer people are hungry now than at any time in South African history.”

Aiden Senzanje from the South African University of KwaZulu Nata complained that all the news headlines from the Horn of Africa were gloom and doom, but then laid out a litany of problems in the area that included land tenure problems, a poor soil base, sub-par production practices, war and regular natural calamities.

And then there is official amnesia.

“We seem to know what needs to be done, but time after time we are caught unawares,” he said.

A presentation on persistent problems in the Horn of Africa, where the current food-related humanitarian crisis is unfolding, referred to persistent low productivity, small subsistence land holdings, little care of the land, weak farm organizations and government neglect of rural issues and investment.

Seventy million of the region’s 160 million population face chronic extreme food shortages.

And from Guatemalan academic Ottoniel Monterroso came a story of a Central American country that produces enough food to service its people and yet suffers from some of the highest rates of food insecurity and malnutrition in the world.

“At the national level, food availability is not a problem in Guatemala,” he said. “Yet more than 25 percent of the people are undernourished.”

He said the problem is in the Highlands where rural and indigenous populations lack access to adequate food.

“We have two countries in Guatemala,” he said.

WORLD TRADE | FOOD PRICES

Volatile food prices shutting down trade talks Governments hoarding food | Doha Round shows few signs of revitalization MONTREAL — Volatile world food prices did more than drive millions into poverty and hunger, says an agricultural economist.

They have also helped bog down World Trade Organization negotiations, says former senior Agriculture Canada economist Douglas Hedley.

“What the 2008 spike showed us is we can’t trust trade,” he said Oct. 5 during a McGill University conference on global food security.

“I think we have lost that and it is one reason holding up the Doha

Round,” he said.

In a later interview, Hedley said the problem was the way governments reacted, hoarding national food reserves to offset rising prices.

For example, India’s 2008 decision to stop rice exports to food-deficit Bangladesh to keep Indian domestic prices down added to the hunger and poverty misery in one of the world’s least developed countries.

“The issue was that when you have more than three dozen countries that shut down exports to countries that they normally trade with, what

you’ve done is exported to a whole series of countries the volatility that results, particularly the rice price in Asia,” he said.

“India shut it down. They normally move rice to Bangladesh seasonally and on a net basis. They shut that down. Bangladesh got hurt very badly so how does Bangladesh feel about, ‘trade is wonderful, freer trade is even better,’ when they’ve been hurt so badly from what they were told in the WTO?” Hedley said the suspicions about trade are part of a deeper malaise that

is undermining the WTO talks, now nearing their 10th anniversary and still mired in disagreement. It was supposed to be a three-year round.

The premise of the 2001 launch of what was called the Doha Development Round was that trade is the way to improve the economies of developing countries.

He said the belief in trade and markets as an economic solution has eroded. The Greek debt crisis has sent stock markets plunging in developed countries, and food price spikes are roiling agricultural markets.

mates for $1.89 billion.

“It was a really good quarter,” said Jeff Windau, an industrial analyst for Edward Jones. “They delivered on what they were focused on doing.”

The company’s reassurance that the restatements of 2009, 2010 and previous 2011 quarters will leave total revenues essentially unchanged, though with different timing, pleased analysts, though they noted that the Securities and Exchange Commission investigation is continuing.

Monsanto said the restatement involves the timing of accruals related to customer incentives for its glyphosate business.

Glyphosate is the key ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide and was once a key driver of revenues.

However, the company has struggled with stiff competition in recent years.

Monsanto has revamped product offerings and pricing as part of a larger restructuring of its business and an effort to bolster growth.

However, Windau said glyphosate competition remains a headwind for Monsanto.

Monsanto said the potential impact of the restatements would affect fiscal year 2009 earnings per share by a loss of five to 10 cents and impact earnings per share for fiscal year 2010 by a loss of two cents to a gain of three cents. Fiscal year 2011 earnings per share of $2.96 includes five cents a share of incremental benefit from the accounting adjustment, Monsanto said.

The company posted a fourthquarter net loss of $112 million, or 21 cents a share. The loss from continuing operations was 22 cents a share.

On that basis, analysts had expected a loss of 27 cents a share.

Monsanto, which makes genetically modified corn, soybeans and cotton that resist insects and tolerate weed-killing chemicals, said global growth in corn and cotton sales helped drive revenue gains of 39 percent for the quarter and 13 percent year over year.

And in its ongoing battle for market share with key rival DuPont, Monsanto said U.S. branded corn volume grew at its best rate in three years. The company gained 10 million acres to hit 13 million acres for its Genuity family of reduced refuge corn products. Its Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybeans totalled 17 million U.S. acres in 2011, up 10 million acres from 2010, Monsanto said.

Continued expansion of its products should help the company achieve mid-teens earnings growth to hit a range of $3.34 to $3.44 a share for fiscal 2012. It said the first quarter of 2012 should yield earnings per share of 10 to 15 cents due to growth in Latin American markets. Wall Street analysts expected eight cents a share.

“It’s clear that we have turned a corner and returned to growth mode,” said Monsanto chair Hugh Grant.

“We made a conscious effort to reconnect with our customers, and from that earned significant sales growth for seeds and traits and created positive momentum we carry into 2012.”

EUROPE | CROP OUTLOOK

Rapeseed area dips in Germany, rises in France, U.K. Fall seeding delayed | German harvest delayed by continuing rain, rapeseed acres likely reduced LONDON, U.K. (Reuters) — Rain looks to have reduced the area seeded with winter rapeseed in Germany but high prices have boosted sowings in France and Britain, where crops have made good early progress, crop analysts said.

Farmers in Germany were still harvesting wheat earlier this month following repeated rain delays when they would like to have been seeding rapeseed. The wheat harvest is normally completed in August.

“The late harvesting meant, as also happened last year, that the optimum time frame for rapeseed sowings was missed,” leading German grain trader Toepfer said in a report.

“This means that we expect that the sowed area for the 2012 rapeseed harvest will be significantly reduced.”

Traders said it was too early to put a figure on the sowing reduction for Germany.

“I think there is now a growing possibility the problems of tight German rapeseed supplies from the 2011 crop will continue into the 2012 crop,” one rapeseed trader said.

“When rapeseed is sown late, as was often the case this year, it is more vulnerable to frost damage, which would cut yields.”

In France and Britain, the outlook was more promising.

Rapeseed in France was generally showing good early growth after benefiting from favourable conditions during the seeding campaign of the past month.

“The situation is not bad at all,” said Fabien Lagarde, technical director at oilseeds institute Cetiom.

“There were a few cases of resowing after torrential rain,” he added in reference to localized storms.

Most plants had emerged successfully, helped by sufficient rainfall and the absence of extreme temperatures.

Traders and analysts anticipate the rapeseed area will rise as the benign field conditions coupled with high market prices and strong yields in this year’s harvest encourage growers to seed the crop.

“The feedback I’ve had is that the area sown will be slightly higher,” Lagarde said.

Cetiom expects the area to rise particularly in parts of northern France that saw unexpectedly high yields in this summer’s harvest.

A rise in planted area is also expected in Britain.

“We’re expecting the area to increase slightly over last year.

Where you have room in the rotation they are increasing oilseed rape at the expense of some of the protein crops, which haven’t done so well in the past year,” said Susan Twining of crop consultants ADAS. “It is beginning to reach its limit in many rotations so that is keeping a cap on its further development at the moment so we are probably looking at a two to three percent access=subscriber section=news,international_ag,none

increase in the oilseed rape area,” she added.

Twining said early conditions had been generally favourable, although it has been dry in the West Midlands while winds from Hurricane Katia caused some damage in the north of England.

LAND INVESTMENT | THIRD WORLD

MANTOBA | FIRE

International group seeks to curb ‘land grab’

Wild fire burns crops

Managing land deals | Climate change, water shortages, growing food insecurity among reasons for investment

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

MONTREAL — It has been called the new colonialism as cash-rich countries and investors pour money into often-poor countries to buy productive farmland to exploit.

China has spent millions of dollars buying African land.

Saudi Arabia has reportedly invested $100 million of oil revenues into Ethiopian farmland.

There have been rumours of Chinese plans to invest in prairie farmland.

Now, troubled by potential consequences of what some refer to as modern-day “land grabs” by food or arable land-hungry nations, a group of international organizations is trying to draft rules aimed at minimizing the local damage these purchases can do.

“This is a very controversial trend and it raises some serious questions,” David Hallam, director of the trade and markets division of the Romebased United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, said Oct. 5.

“There is a very fundamental set of questions about the impact of foreign access to land, the impact on small scale farmers displaced and it is a question of sovereignty when you have a significant portion of your land area owned and controlled by somebody else.”

Officials from FAO, the World Bank, the International Fund for Agricultural Development and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development are researching how land investment deals can be managed in a way that does the least damage.

“We are researching alternative models that bring more benefits to access=subscriber section=news,international_ag,none

NEW PUMA™ SERIES

$100 million AMOUNT SAUDI ARABIA IS SAID TO HAVE INVESTED IN FARMLAND IN ETHIOPIA local stakeholders,” he said in an interview during a McGill University conference on global food security.

Hallam said the issue is complicated by the fact that many developing countries welcome the foreign investment.

However, the buyers often are looking for land that can be exploited to produce crops that can be shipped to the country of origin to meet food security needs. Sometimes, the result is environmental degradation, displacement of smallholder farmers and a reduction in food security for the host country.

He said international rules would encourage alternative forms of investment, which could include joint ventures with locals or rules to protect local farmers or the environ-

ment.

Hallam said foreign investment in resource-rich countries is longstanding but the spectre of foreigners buying land in poor developing countries with few options has made the practice controversial.

“What we’ve seen recently is because there has been such a negative view of land acquisitions in Africa, quite a number of investors are backing away from Africa because they don’t want the reputational risk,” said the FAO official. “Some, especially investors from the Gulf region, again are looking at places where they used to invest like Australia, Brazil and Europe so it would be quite plausible that they would be looking here on the Prairies as well.”

Hallam noted that despite the controversy over foreign land grabs, the amount of land that actually has been purchased is small.

“However, the local impact can be very significant,” he said. “These guys are not buying the marginal land.

They’re looking for the good stuff.”

And the race is on to establish some international rules because the trend to buy foreign land is accelerating.

Climate change, water shortages and growing food insecurity all are reasons countries with money will be looking for foreign land on which to grow food, he said.

Record heat for Oct.

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Wild fires broke out in Manitoba cropland Oct. 7, joining fires already burning in forests.

Manitoba government officials attempted to prevent more by banning fires in parks and on stubble.

As of Oct. 7, parts of the town of Stuartburn in southeastern Manitoba had been evacuated, a school in nearby Vita was closed and farmers and rural residents were watching smoke and flames move through their area.

The big fire near Stuartburn was said to be one and a half kilometres wide by three km long. Other large fires, many times that size, raged on the east side of Lake Winnipeg and in Riding Mountain National Park.

Winds of 90 km/h fanned the flames.

Dry weather and record heat for October have created tinder-dry conditions in the stubble, leaves, grass and trees of southern Manitoba.

The cause of the Stuartburn fire is not yet known. The one on the east side of Lake Winnipeg was caused by lightning, officials said.

The one in Riding Mountain was likely caused by embers from a September prescribed burn. It was reignited by strong winds, park officials said. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

SAFETY | FOOD LABELLING

Legal petition filed for mandatory GMO labelling KANSAS CITY/WASHINGTON (Reuters) — The Center for Food Safety has filed a legal petition with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration seeking mandatory labelling for food made from genetically modified crops.

“They should label the foods and let consumers know. This carte blanche they’ve been giving the industry is not acceptable,” said Andrew Kimbrell, executive director of the centre.

“There are novel ingredients in the food that have never been there before.”

The legal action requires a formal response from the FDA and is the first step toward filing a lawsuit against the government agency to try to force labelling, Kimbrell said.

The centre has filed several lawsuits against the government in recent years and successfully stymied approvals of some biotech crops.

There are thousands of unlabelled items on grocery store shelves that contain at least traces of GM corn, soybeans and other crops. The government is also considering approving a GM salmon.

Monsanto introduced a new sweet corn this summer that is genetically modified to make it toxic to insects and able to withstand treatments of chemical herbicides.

The Center for Food Safety and the Center for Environmental Health have asked food companies that make frozen and canned corn to boycott the new corn, which is not labelled as GM. Monsanto and other biotech seed companies oppose labelling and say the crops and food made from GM crops are indistinguishable from non-GM food in composition, nutrition and safety.

“The safety and benefits of genetically modified crops are well established,” said Monsanto spokesperson Thomas Helscher.

The Center for Food Safety’s action against the FDA is backed by a coalition of 350 organizations that include representatives of the health-care industry, consumer advocates, environmentalists, food and farming organizations and businesses.

Horizon Organic, one of the country’s largest suppliers of organic milk, and several other organic organizations are part of the effort, as is Rural Advancement Foundation International and Food and Water Watch.

The coalition has also launched a website petition campaign to encourage consumers to pressure the FDA on the labelling issue.

It argues that many other developed countries, such as the 15 nations in the European Union, Japan, Australia, Brazil, Russia and China, have laws requiring labelling of GM food. A majority of U.S. consumers also want such labelling, according to polls.

A political action group called Label GMOs, Committee for the Right to Know, is pushing a 2012 ballot initiative in California to require companies to label foods that contain GM products.

The FDA had no immediate comment on the CFS legal petition, but a spokesperson said previous court decisions have found that the agency does not have the authority to access=subscriber section=news,none,none

require labelling on the basis of consumer interest alone.

Monsanto said extensive government review assures the safety of GM food.

“All of the products being grown by f a r m e r s i n t h e U. S. hav e b e e n reviewed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Department of Agriculture and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,” said Helscher.

“The safety has been confirmed by national food safety agencies like FDA and counterparts agencies in other countries, as well as international public health institutions like the World Health Organization.”

YOUNG FARMERS | SPAIN

EU struggles to keep young producers from leaving the farm Farming unprofitable, marginal | Aging residents, unfeasible farm practices, subsidies blamed for rural demise MADRID/BRUSSELS (Reuters) — Tracts of Spanish countryside are likely to turn into desert or waste dumps unless the European Union discourages young farmers from leaving the land for the city.

Measures to support young farmers will be part of draft proposals due this week for overhauling the bloc’s controversial $75 billion a year Common Agricultural Policy starting in 2014.

However, with just six percent of European farmers younger than 35, time is running out to prevent many farms from being abandoned, and the incentives may not be enough to lure young Spaniards to cultivate marginally profitable land.

Cesar Trillo, who grows grain, forage, fruit, vegetables and beans in the northern province of Huesca, grew up in a household of six who worked a

small holding, but he is now the only farmer left in his family. He advised his two daughters to study engineering rather than take up farming.

“That’s the way it is. Farming in this country has been unprofitable and God-forsaken for years,” said Trillo.

“There won’t be a generational handover in my case.”

More than 10 percent of all land in Spain used to grow grain on land where irrigation is not feasible, and it yields only one-third as much as fertile parts of northern Europe and the Black Sea basin.

This makes farm profits marginal, and Spanish farmers depend on EU subsidies for 30 to 40 percent of their income. EU data show that European farmers earn 34 percent less than urban workers.

The unirrigated acreage planted to

cereals in Spain has already dropped by 11.5 percent since 2002 as direct subsidies were cut in previous CAP reviews. Expected further reductions could put young people off farming altogether.

“The CAP is less and less supportive of farm economics, and that will wreck competitiveness, for example, of dryland farming. Young people leave because they have no hopes,” said Luis Lopez-Bellido, professor of agriculture at the University of Cordoba.

Other producers may snap up more fertile farmland in some regions.

Demand by farmers is propping up land values in several parts of the world.

“The trend of consolidation has always been there, but there’s a limit to what consolidation can achieve, and you still need enough well trained

people to manage production,” said Joris Baecke, president of the European Council of Young Farmers.

Andres del Campo, president of the Spanish Federation of Irrigators, said farmland is not in demand in Spain’s dead property market and needs constant irrigation or tillage to remain productive.

“What society in general and politicians must realize is that when farmland is abandoned, especially in the Mediterranean, it does not turn into a forest, say, but rather a desert or dump for the nearest town.”

Much of rural Spain could be depopulated in 20 years if aging continues, while overpopulated cities would increase problems with global warming and waste management.

“If small towns are abandoned, then this really is important because access=subscriber section=news,none,none

that will mean the surroundings won’t be cared for, (and) it will provoke forest fires,” Lopez-Bellido said.

CAP’s rural development rules allow member states and the EU to jointly finance payments for qualified farmers younger than 40 over the first five years after they set up business.

The commission will propose raising the maximum payment.

Del Campo said only one-quarter of the money earmarked for aid between 2007-2013 has been allocated and only 8,000 young people have taken up farming.

Mindful of such criticism, the commission will also propose a 25 percent increase in direct EU subsidies for young farmers in their first five years. The payments are fully funded from the bloc’s budget and therefore universally applied.

Baecke, who grows cereals, potatoes, onions, beans and sugar beets in the Netherlands, said subsidies could be a cost-effective way of reversing the aging of Europe’s farm population.

“The share of young farmers in the overall farming population is quite small, so if you target support to the first five years after they start up, you can do a lot with a relatively small part of the total budget.”

Lopez-Bellido was less optimistic.

“CAP aid is not going to solve this because it is a token gesture,” he said.

“If Spanish farmers depend on subsidies for 30 to 40 percent of their income, then you tell me how they will live without those subsidies.”

NOW THAT’S STRAIGHT

CELLULOSIC BIOFUEL | OUTLOOK

Innovation needed to help U.S. meet ethanol mandate 2022 goal unlikely | Scientific advisory report says more work needed WASHINGTON, D.C. (Reuters) — The United States will likely fail to reach its long-term mandate for making advanced ethanol from trees, grasses and crop waste unless producers innovate significantly, says a scientific advisory group.

The National Research Council’s comments are the latest sign that backers of alternative fuels must wait longer for next-generation ethanol.

Touted as the motor fuel of the future, it has struggled with high production costs and other setbacks.

“Absent major technological innovation or policy changes, the … mandated consumption of 16 billion gallons of ethanol-equivalent cellulosic biofuels is unlikely to be met in 2022,” a council study said, referring to longterm targets in U.S. law for the biofuel.

The study, which drew challenges from the U.S. agriculture secretary and industry groups, also said cellulosic fuel without subsidies would be feasible only with oil prices higher than $190 a barrel, far higher than the current level near $80.

The council, part of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, said the U.S. mandate for renewable fuel may be an ineffective policy for reducing

greenhouse gas emissions.

The report may not hurt near-term investment in cellulosic production, but the weak economy will, said Pavel Molchanov, an analyst at financial services company Raymond James and Associates.

“There’s no disputing that in this kind of economy, with credit markets tight, it’s definitely not easy for advanced biofuel developers to raise large amounts of capital,” he said.

In June, the Environmental Protection Agency slashed for the second year running its proposed near-term mandate for cellulosic production set by Congress in 2007.

The federal government and producers say the fuel is a way to reduce imports of foreign oil and cut emissions of gases blamed for warming the planet. Next-generation ethanol has also been seen as a way to limit the use of corn to make fuel, which has been blamed for pushing up food prices.

Despite years of work, there are no commercial-scale plants to make cellulosic ethanol.

The U.S. mandate calls for 15 billion gallons of ethanol made from traditional sources such as corn by 2022, four billion gallons of advanced bio-

fuel, other than ethanol derived from corn, and 16 billion gallons of cellulosic from sources including wood, grasses and crop waste.

U.S. producers made more than 13 billion gallons of corn ethanol last year, using 40 percent of the corn crop in the process. The study said the long-term goal of 15 billion gallons of traditional ethanol should be achievable.

It is unclear whether some cellulosic fuels would lower greenhouse gas emissions because of the carbon dioxide that would be produced when new land is cultivated to grow feedstocks, said Wally Tyner, an agriculture economics professor at Purdue University who helped work on the study.

For example, if expanding biofuel production involves plowing up perennial vegetation and replacing it with an annual crop, that could disrupt future potential for storing carbon in biomass and soil.

The Renewable Fuels Association said the work “largely assesses ethanol and other biofuels in a vacuum and fails to appropriately comp a re t h e c o s t s a n d b e n e f i t s o f renewable fuels to the impacts of the marginal petroleum sources they are displacing.”

WEATHER | SOUTH AMERICA

La Nina may bring down Brazil’s new crops Significant production reduction feared | Seeding estimates are up from last year, despite worries about the weather BRASILIA, Brazil (Reuters) — Brazil may suffer its biggest drop in soybean output in decades next year if dry conditions from a possible return of La Nina weather descend on the southern grain belt.

In its first official forecast of the 2011-12 soybean crop, the Brazilian government’s crop supply agency Conab said output would fall to 72.18 to 73.29 million tonnes from the record 75.3 million tonnes last year.

If the crop eventually comes in at the lower end of the range, it would

be the largest drop in outright tonnage from one year to the next since 1994, which is as far back as Conab’s website data extends.

A smaller crop could support soybean prices. Global supply and demand fundamentals for the oilseed remain strong. The recent fall in futures prices in September is bringing big importers such as Egypt and China back to the market to try to rebuild their depleted inventories.

And Brazil’s forward delivery sales of the new crop for early 2012 are well above historical averages for this

time of year.

Despite the initial outlook for a drop in production, this year’s area planted to soybean is forecast to rise two to 3.5 percent to about 60 million acres compared to last year’s record 58 million acres.

An expected return to normal yields after unprecedented growth last year is partially behind the expected drop in output.

Productivity is expected to fall to 1.19 tonnes per acre from a record 1.26 tonnes per acre in 2010-11 when abundant rains produced a bumper

crop, Conab said.

“It depends on the chance of having a strong drought in the south but at this time it is very early to say,” Silvio Porto, director of farm policy and information at Conab, said when asked why the agency saw the smaller crop from more area.

The government’s outlook on the new crop that began planting in the past weeks is more conservative than private sector forecasts.

EXPORT MARKETS | CORN

U.S. ethanol market eating into export supplies of corn CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — For the first time in 40 years, U.S. corn exporters are not out-selling the rest of the world.

Domestic ethanol is sucking up record crops, emerging suppliers such as Brazil and Ukraine are taking export share, and traditional exporters such as Argentina are moving to open new markets.

As well, consumers worldwide are looking to save every penny, cutting shipping costs or using other types of feed.

After supplying four out of every five kernels of corn traded internationally in the mid-1990s, U.S. market share is projected to shrink to 45 percent this season.

U.S. dominance has been particularly hard hit in the past 10 years, but that decade-long erosion should stabilize or at least slow as global demand growth starts to outpace steadily rising production outside of the United States and as demand for corn from the U.S. ethanol industry plateaus.

Still, the stiff competition in a market the United States once dominated appears to be here to stay.

“Other countries have been stepping up to the plate and improving their exporting abilities, getting phytosanitary agreements in place and things of that sort,” said Sterling Smith, an analyst with Country Hedging.

For instance, Argentina, the world’s No. 2 corn exporter, is developing a health protocol that would allow China, the world’s second largest consumer of the grain, to import corn from the South American country.

Argentina, Ukraine and Brazil, the world’s largest corn suppliers behind the U.S., could see their combined market share grow to 41 percent in the marketing year ending September 2012 from 18 percent a decade ago, according to U.S. Agriculture Department data.

“As foreign production over the past 10 years has grown faster than foreign consumption, our export potential has eroded,” said Rich Pottorff, chief economist with Doane Advisory Services.

“The outlook is a little brighter over the next decade than it was in the past decade, but that’s not to imply that U.S. exports are going to rebound to the kind of market share we had a decade ago.”

One big obstacle for U.S. corn exports has been the ethanol industry. It is expected to soak up 40 percent of the U.S. crop this year, up from less than 10 percent a decade ago.

Proximity to crops in the Midwest farm belt often allows ethanol makers to outbid exporters.

T h e rap i d d e ma n d g row t h i s expected to slow by 2015 as the Renewable Fuels Standard tops out its requirement for corn-ethanol blending in the U.S. fuel supply at 15 billion gallons, up from 12.6 billion gallons this year.

With U.S. corn production steadily trending higher as science pushes the upper bounds of yield potential, a larger share of the U.S. crop would then be available to livestock feeders and exporters, analysts said.

“Assuming that they don’t raise the renewable fuels standard mandate and 15 billion gallons of ethanol is about all we can use domestically, then we’ve clearly seen the big gains in demand from the ethanol industry already,” Pottorff said.

The next great growth area for U.S. access=subscriber section=news,crops,none

corn demand may now lie half a world away in China.

An increasingly affluent population in the world’s most populous nation is urbanizing and upgrading diets at an exponential rate, requiring more grain to produce meat, eggs and dairy products. Demand from industrial processors is also soaring.

“With demand from the (U.S.) ethanol sector topping out, China’s going to be the next big market factor,” said Shawn McCambridge, a grains analyst with Jefferies Bache.

“Their string of self-sufficiency in feed grains is slowly declining. If their economy continues to grow and demand for corn-based products

such as meat continues to increase, they’re going to have to come into the market more aggressively.”

China’s domestic corn consumption, projected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture at 182.5 million tonnes this year, is rising faster than production, which the USDA expects to be 178 million tonnes. Its state stockpile of the grain has been whittled down in recent years and is believed to be at less than a one-month supply.

China, formerly a large corn exporter, imported more than one million tonnes of U.S. corn in each of the previous two marketing years and was projected to import at least two million tonnes in the 2011-12 season,

according to USDA. Analysts on average forecast imports to hit four million tonnes, while other forecasts have suggested even larger imports of up to nine million tonnes this year and 20 million tonnes by 2020.

The ability of corn production outside the U.S. to keep pace with such a jump in world import demand will be the key to determining if U.S. market share continues to shrink, stabilize or bounce back.

Corn output outside the United States has grown far faster than global demand for imports over the past 10 years, which has narrowed the world corn deficit that U.S. sup-

plies have traditionally filled.

The deficit of 61 million tonnes in 2001 will shrink to a projected 39 million tonnes this year, according to USDA data.

Pottorff said the deficit would rebound to 2.5 billion bushels, or about 63 million tonnes, if foreign corn acreage were to freeze at the cur rent level while yields and demand continue to grow, as they have over the past decade.

However, the deficit would narrow to 1.4 billion bu., or 35 million tonnes, if acreage continues to grow by the six million acres a year it has averaged over the past decade, along with demand and yield growth trends.

EU proceeds with ban on egg sales from battery chickens BRUSSELS, Belgium (Reuters) — A European Union ban on the sale of eggs from battery chickens to consumers will go ahead as planned starting Jan. 1.

However, producers may be free to sell non-compliant eggs to domestic processors, the bloc’s consumer affairs chief said.

“The (European) Commission does not intend to postpone the deadline of the ban. Investments and efforts already made, as well as consumer trust, must not be undermined,” said EU health and consumer commissioner John Dalli.

However, rather than forcing producers who fail to meet the deadline to destroy their eggs, the commission wants to let them sell them to industrial

processors in their own countries.

“The problem has more than one dimension. It has an economic dimension in the countries themselves that are producing these eggs, some of them in deep crisis already. Secondly, it also has a consumer dimension in terms of the supply, demand and pricing of eggs,” Dalli said.

“Therefore there must be a political solution to this.… What I am pushing to do is to contain any eggs that are not produced according to the new directive within their own territory, usable only for (processing).”

Dalli said the compromise would ensure compliant producers receive a premium price for their products and are protected from the threat of cheap imports of illegal eggs.

However, he said it was still unclear whether such a compromise was compatible with EU legislation and that the commission would work with EU governments to try to reach a solution.

The EU agreed on the battery cage ban in 1999, but commission figures from this past April showed that 144 million laying hens, more than a third of the EU total, were still being kept in battery cages.

The commission will send inspectors to selected member countries starting in January to assess their compliance with the ban, Dalli said.

“Based on the outcomes of these audits, the commission will not hesitate to start infringement procedures where appropriate in 2012,” he said.

Commission assessments of which countries are likely to conform with the ban in January predict significant non-compliance in France, Poland, Belgium and Portugal and cast doubt over the situation in Italy, Spain, Greece and Hungary.

Producers in countries that have already implemented or are expected to meet the deadline, such as Germany, Austria and Britain, have urged the commission to do more to punish countries that flout the ban.

“You have to go back and rethink, and bring a plan forward that has some real teeth in it, that will actually force compliance,” George Lyon, a British member of the European Parliament, told Dalli. access=subscriber section=news,none,none

Egypt loo restructur feed its h Reform sought | Cheap bread for all causing $5 billion food subsidy burden CAIRO, Egypt (Reuters)— Egypt, once the breadbasket of the Roman Empire and now the world’s biggest wheat importer, is paying a hefty price to keep its citizens fed with cheap food.

The $5.5 billion that it spends each year on food subsidies, mostly on wheat, is a burden that it can ill afford as the economy falters and the budget deficit balloons after the uprising that ousted president Hosni Mubarak in February.

But the financial pressure is not the only cost of the subsidy system: subsidies have also distorted Egyptian agriculture. Bread is so cheap that it is sometimes used as animal feed. A focus on imports has led to neglect of farms at home. Produce often rots before it reaches the market.

Now the country’s post-Mubarak government is inching toward farreaching reforms of the system. No one talks of scrapping subsidies altogether: the uprising against Mubarak was partly fuelled by anger at the deep divide between rich and poor.

But experts say the financial burden could be reduced and the cash more usefully spent on strengthening the agriculture sector.

“We need a radical shift in the way we deal with our bread subsidy system,” social solidarity minister Gouda Abdel Khaleq told a recent seminar on food security in Egypt.

His ministry is in charge of the country’s main wheat buying organization and other bodies that handle subsidized food, though any reform will also need input from the finance and agriculture ministries.

More than three quarters of Egypt’s 80 million people can use their ration cards to buy saucer-sized flat loaves at less than one cent each. Abdel Khaleq said this system is unsustainable.

The government spent $5.5 billion on wheat, sugar, rice and food oil subsidies in the fiscal year ended on June 30. It forecasts a budget deficit of 8.6 percent of gross domestic product for the current year, and analysts say it might exceed that level.

“It is like someone climbing to the top of the Cairo Tower, sticking their tongue out and jumping,” Abdel Khaleq, who joined the ar myappointed government from a party with socialist roots, said of the subsidy system.

Few dispute the need for change, but tampering with the system, which was set up in the 1950s by president Gamal Abdel Nasser, is tricky. In 1977, president Anwar Sadat’s bid to raise bread prices led to riots. Mubarak also faced protests in 2008 over shortages.

The government talked about subsidy reform even before Mubarak’s access=subscriber section=news,none,none

ouster, but it made little progress.

A plan to set up a voucher system for butane cooking gas cylinders that would limit the heavily subsidized canisters to only the most needy was due to be implemented before the uprising. It was postponed and the army-backed government has now said a trial scheme will start in October.

Anything which the government does to change food subsidies will be liable to reversal.

Parliamentary elections are due to start in November and end in January. A date for a presidential vote has yet to be set. With 50 political parties competing in a new electoral landscape, predicting the shape of the new government is highly uncertain.

But the fact that the current government is willing to tackle the issue shows widespread support for the idea of reform. Many experts believe the bloated system is too broad to help people most in need.

“The subsidy system is not a reflection of social justice; around twothirds of the people benefiting from it are not poor,” said Magda Kandil, executive director and director of research at the Egyptian Center for Economic Studies.

Mills produce subsidized flour for the government for as little as $27 a tonne, while its market value would be $344. Experts say subsidized flour is often leaked into the open market at a big profit.

To stop this, the government is considering making mills and bakeries buy wheat and flour at market prices.

The government would then buy the bread at market prices but sell it with a subsidy to ration card holders, Abdel Khaleq said.

However, subsidized bread would still be cheaper than animal feed, a price distortion that encourages waste.

“The people who don’t need the subsidy are taking the bread anyway and feeding it to their animals,” Kandil said.

With bread so cheap, Egyptians have one of the world’s highest rates of wheat consumption per capita in the world.

Egyptians consume 180 to 200 kilograms of wheat a year, compared to 51 kg for Mexicans.

“We need to change consumer habits so that we are not consuming so much bread,” said Sad Nassar, an adviser to the agriculture minister.

“In Mexico, for example, they rely more on potatoes. Why can’t we start shifting towards that?”

As a result, Egyptian officials are discussing how to make farm pro-

“Forget the word self-sufficiency, what we really need to be looking for is agricultural efficiency,” said Adel Beshai, an economics professor and agriculture specialist at the American University in Cairo. “We have been ignoring agriculture.”

Egypt consumes 14 million tonnes of wheat a year but usually produces only half that amount.

Beshai said Egypt needs to produce at least 70 percent of its wheat requirements if it wants greater food security. He said that could be achieved by expanding agriculture beyond the Nile Valley and Delta, where it is now concentrated.

Agriculture on the northern Mediterranean coast, which was cultivated in Roman times, could be expanded, he said. Much of the area, dotted with holiday resorts, is now a summer retreat for affluent Egyptians.

“You have 1.5 million acres behind these resorts that are readily cultivable with underground water. You can grow wheat there,” Beshai said.

Egypt has had mixed results with land reclamation for agriculture. The Toshka project to reclaim tracts of desert fed from the Aswan dam in the south was launched in the 1990s but has made limited progress.

However, Egypt could cut imports, improve domestic production and generate more cash from exports without expanding farmland by improving its distribution system to reduce the amount of food lost before it reaches the consumer.

“Currently, post-harvest losses result in the destruction of 30 percent of the produce. In the case of tomatoes, post-harvest losses can reach 60 percent,” said Angie Helmy, vicechair of Egyptian Agrofoods Co. “Produce is improperly packaged, it is stacked in a random way on trucks, travels exposed and does not receive any cooling.”

Helmy, who has been exporting fresh produce to European markets for a year and a half, said addressing these problems would save large volumes of produce.

Water efficiency is another pressing issue.

Most irrigation is now done by flooding fields from canals. Experts say this results in waste that Egypt cannot afford when it depends almost solely on the Nile for fresh

water and upstream African states want to use more for themselves.

Advanced irrigation techniques, such as pivot systems that sprinkle water more efficiently, would mean more water available for land reclamation.

Experts say farmers using these techniques and helped by private investment could expand production of cash crops for export. That

might not cut the wheat import bill, but it would generate more hard currency to pay for it.

“We need to adopt the agriculturefor-export concept,” Beshai said.

Such agricultural reforms have been discussed for years in Egypt but have often failed because of poorly functioning government bureaucracies and red tape, which make investing in the sector a challenge.

Many of Egypt’s farmers own small holdings that make it difficult to change growing practices and create large, economically efficient farms.

However, success with food subsidy reform could encourage the government and the private sector to press ahead with wider changes to the agricultural sector, while freeing up government money to promote them.

SOIL | CARBON SEQUESTRATION

Tillage not critical to carbon sequestration Zero till | System brings fuel savings, moisture retention and erosion reduction

I think we’re deluding ourselves a little bit if we think it’s making a big difference on climate change and carbon balance.

STORIES BY ROBERT ARNASON JOHN BAKER

BRANDON BUREAU

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA

Alberta producers who practise zero tillage have been paid millions of dollars over the past few years as part of an emissions trading scheme in the province.

The Alberta Offset System has compensated them for conservation tillage because the management practice is supposed to hold more carbon in the soil, reducing the amount of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.

However, recent research from the University of Manitoba and work done at Ohio State University over the past decade suggest zero tillage is no better than conventional tillage when it comes to storing greenhouse gases.

Those results don’t surprise John Baker, a University of Minnesota professor who studies greenhouse gas balancing within agricultural systems. He has questioned the notion that no till sequesters more carbon than conventionally tilled soils.

“There are a lot of benefits to no till, in terms of reduced fuel use and erosion protection … so expansion of no till is a good thing,” said Baker, who is also a research leader with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, specializing in soil physics and micrometeorology.

“But I think we’re deluding ourselves a little bit if we think it’s making a big difference on climate change and carbon balance.”

There are experts who would strongly disagree with Baker’s conclusion, but Aaron Glenn, a micrometeorologist with Agriculture Canada in Brandon, isn’t one of them.

“The carbon credit stuff is still going forward in Alberta … but there isn’t a lot of (scientific) evidence to support it,” he said.

As part of his doctoral thesis in soil science at the University of Manito-

A three-year study shows reduced tillage plots didn’t sequester more greenhouse gas than conventionally tilled plots. | FILE PHOTO ba, Glenn monitored the emission and absorption of greenhouse gases from no till and conventionally tilled plots at the university’s Glenlea Research Station south of Winnipeg.

Glenn and his colleagues grew a rotation of corn, fababeans and spring wheat from 2006-08 on four plots: two were tilled in spring and fall and the others farmed with no till.

The reduced tillage plots received a light harrowing at the beginning of the experiment to prepare the seed bed for planting.

The scientists attached instruments to one-metre-high towers to measure the influence of no till on carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide exchange between the soil and the atmosphere.

“From an atmospheric exchange perspective, this study was one of the first of its kind in Canada,” Glenn said.

Hi s t h re e y e a r s t u d y s h ow e d reduced tillage plots failed to sequester more greenhouse gas than conventionally tilled plots.

“We didn’t actually find a treatment difference.”

The results were unexpected because other studies have shown that no-till soil stores more carbon than conventionally tilled land.

Reduced tillage is supposed to alter the composition of the soil, which leads to increased storage of greenhouse gases.

“By not tilling the soil, you’re not breaking up larger soil aggregates,” Baker said.

“Carbon that is held inside the aggregates is not as exposed to oxygen.”

The promotion of conservation tillage as part of the solution to climate change has been based on this link between no till and increased carbon storage.

However, in 2006 Baker questioned the quality of some scientific experiments on zero tillage and carbon sequestration.

His research review found fault in the methodologies of several studies that concluded reduced tillage stored more carbon in the soil. Most of them collected soil samples at depths of 30 centimetres or less, which Baker said skewed the results in favour of zero tillage.

“In essentially all cases where conser vation tillage was found to sequester (more carbon), soils were sampled to a depth of 30 cm or less.”

He said the few studies that took soil samples deeper than 30 cm found that zero till soil sequestered the same, or less, carbon than conventionally tilled plots.

Baker has concluded that zero tillage stratifies carbon in the soil rather than storing more of it.

SOIL | CARBON OFFSETS

Price of offsetting emissions Not all land is created equal when it comes to storing carbon Companies that emit more than 100,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases per year have been under the gun in Alberta since July 1, 2007.

They must either reduce emissions intensity by 12 percent annually, relative to baseline levels, or offset their production.

Emissions intensity is measured relative to economic output, so a decrease in emissions may not be an absolute reduction.

To reach the target, Alberta companies have four choices: • Improve their facility so it produces fewer emissions.

• Pay $15 per tonne into a climate change technology fund.

• Buy credits from companies that have reduced emission intensity by more than 12 per cent.

reduced tillage soil has more roots near the surface, while conventionally tilled fields have more roots at greater soil depth.

Partially in response to Baker’s criticism of soil sampling protocols, Umberto Blanco-Canqui, a graduate student at Ohio State, examined carbon storage at 11 sites in Kentucky, Ohio and Pennsylvania where no till had been practiced for years.

Most of the previous experiments on carbon sequestration had been done at the plot scale, and soil samples were taken at depths of 30 cm or less. Blanco-Canqui designed his study for the field scale and sampled the soil to depths of 60 cm.

A zero till field was paired with a cultivated field at all 11 locations in the trial, and Blanco-Canqui eventually concluded that Baker was correct.

“NT (no till) farming increases SOC (soil organic carbon) concentrations in the upper layers of some soils, but it does not store more (carbon) than PT (plow till) soils for the whole soil profile,” Blanco-Canqui wrote in his paper, published in the Soil Science Society of America Journal.

In the paper, Blanco-Canqui said he was surprised that no till soil in the trial didn’t contain more soil organic matter than cultivated soils. Plowed soil actually had more soil organic matter than no till soil at a few sites.

“First, (plow till) management mixes and buries residue at deeper depths than (no till) farming,” Blanco-Canqui wrote in an attempt to explain why plowed soils contained more carbon.

“Buried residues at the deepest boundaries of the plowed layer decompose at slower rates than surface residues because they are protected from microbial attack and erosion hazards, which favors (soil organic carbon) accumulation.”

Rattan Lal, who heads up the Carbon Management and Sequestration Centre at Ohio State and was BlancoCanqui’s study supervisor and paper co-author, is known as a supporter of zero tillage and carbon sequestration, but he readily acknowledged that Blanco-Canqui and Baker are correct.

“Plow till, in many cases, has more carbon below the plow layer than no till has,” he said.

“Therefore, if you sum it up, the entire pool (of carbon), it’s not different in both cases.”

However, Lal said carbon trading

• Buy carbon credits from participants in the Alberta Offset System.

Zero tillage is one of the approved practices in the Alberta Offset System, but most farmers don’t sell offsets directly to emitters because aggregators act as middlemen between the two parties. The aggregators buy offsets from farmers, bundle no till and other offset projects together and sell the credits to companies seeking offsets for emissions.

However, the price of no-till offsets are opaque, said Amanda Stuparyk, offset co-ordinator with C3, an Alberta non-profit organization that oversees carbon offsets in the province.

“The Alberta offset market is not an exchange and therefore there is no price discovery,” she said in an e-mail.

“Contracting and payments are bilat-

eral,” which means agreements between buyers and sellers are private.

Nonetheless, some aggregators are more transparent than others when it comes to price, said Graham Gilchrist, who works in Alberta Agriculture’s Office of the Farmers’ Advocate.

For example, Carbon Reduction Offset Projects (CROP), an aggregator based in Didsbury, Alta., pays

approximately $9 per tonne for greenhouse gas reduction related to no till farming, Gilchrist said.

How that $9 per tonne translates into dollars per acre is more complex, but in the simplest terms, the Alberta Tillage System Management Protocol uses coefficients to calculate how no till reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

• Offset credits registered for zero tillage in Alberta, per tonnes of carbon dioxide, between 2007 and 2010: 5.08 million tonnes (CO2 equivalent)

• Total number of acres registered for offset credits in 2010: 3.36 million (estimate)

CARBON FACTS

• Total value of those offsets, assuming price per tonne of $9: $45.72 million

While the amounts are minimal, no till farmers in Alberta are able to sell offsets retroactively to 2002. As a result, a producer in the parkland zone with eight years of carbon credits on 1,000 acres would receive $11,920 for the offsets.

However, Alberta farmers will no longer be able to sell no till offsets from previous years as of Jan. 1.

• Zero till acreage in Alberta: seven million • Zero till acres in Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan: 25.0 million Sources: Alberta Agriculture, Soil Conservation Council of Canada, staff research

schemes that compensate no-till farmers are still scientifically valid, partly because they burn significantly less diesel per acre than other farmers.

“But there is one other component that is very important, and that component is soil erosion,” he said.

“Soil erosion causes long-term changes in soil dynamics…. So when you add up the soil erosion part and you add up the diesel consumption … when you add up the water conservation … the ecosystem biodiversity … no till farmers should be paid more because they are avoiding emissions and sequestering (carbon).”

Baker said scientists need to study the interaction between the soil and atmosphere more before reaching a final conclusion on the link between no till and carbon sequestration.

Baker remains skeptical about the final outcome.

“I’m not optimistic that this is ever going to be a major contributor to mitigation of climate change. It might be one piece of a much bigger puzzle.”

INSECT PESTS | FLEA BEETLES

Weather can make flea beetle predictions tricky Fall scouting numbers not always last word | Producers urged to monitor fields in spring too, because situation can change

BY BRYN LEVY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

High numbers of flea beetles in the fall are a good indicator for high populations the following spring, but weather conditions will also play a major role.

“If you have lots (of flea beetles) in the fall, there’s a strong chance of problems in the spring, if it’s warm and dry,” said Julie Soroka, an Agriculture Canada research scientist in Saskatoon.

However, she said warm, dry, and calm weather will allow the highly mobile bugs to migrate into fields in the spring even if the population was low in the fall.

The importance of such an uncertain variable makes it difficult to plan control strategies, but the stakes are high.

Soroka and Agriculture Canada researcher Bob Elliott recently wrote in a journal article that flea beetles may be responsible for as much as 10 percent of annual production losses in North American oilseed brassica crops. The losses are estimated to cost more than $300 million a year.

Soroka said flea beetles are hardy and have few natural predators. Control strategies for the pests are mainly chemical.

Seed treatments provide the first line of defence, and individual producers must gauge whether populations they see in the fall are worth the extra cost of going to a higher-grade seed treatment or increasing seeding rates.

“If you don’t see them in the fall, use a low rate. Don’t use the max rate unless you need it because you are really setting the stage for resistance,” said Soroka.

Foliar insecticides may become necessary if flea beetles have damaged more than 25 percent of the plants’ leaf surface, according to the journal article.

In most cases, flea beetles start consuming canola at the edges of a field and work their way in, which means foliar treatment can sometimes be limited to a field’s outer edges, she said.

However, she encouraged producers to thoroughly scout their fields before treating because there is no guarantee this will always be the case.

“There’s a lot we still don’t know about these beasts,” she said.

Soroka said other management practices can also be used alongside chemicals, such as planting for early emergence, into tall stubble and at a high seed rate.

She said the cooler microclimate

Soroka said good field scouting in

fall and spring is vital.

As well, producers on the southern Prairies may want to look for flea beetles a few weeks earlier in the spring because there are preliminary indications that the crucifer species of flea beetle common to the

region is being displaced by striped flea beetles common in northern areas.

Soroka said this is likely because of the striped beetles’ higher tolerance to neonicotinoid chemicals used in seed treatments and insecticides.

It’s not always easy for farmers to find answers to their agronomic questions.

The information is available in scientific journals, but access can be formidable. Even if farmers do find the articles, the scientific language can be laborious, making these publications difficult to read even for other researchers.

“The information is often contradictory, which makes decisionmaking more difficult since additional effort is required to separate good information from bad,” said Guy Lafond, a research agronomist at Agriculture Canada’s research farm in Indian Head, Sask.

“Over the years, we’ve found that very few extension people ever read these publications, even though it’s the basis for much of our soil and crop management.”

Lafond and the Saskatchewan Soil Conservation Association have developed a new web-based e-publication to address this concern.

“We’ve needed something like this for a long time. It’s one single website where people can find virtually all the scientific research pertinent to prairie soils and crops,” said Lafond.

Lafond said editors of Prairie Soils and Crops: Scientific Perspectives for Innovative Management invite top agricultural experts and researchers to write articles on their topics of expertise.

“Ultimately, the intent is to make world-class agricultural research on the Canadian prairies accessible to

everyone.”

The website is organized into five topics, the first three of which are complete and posted.

• Agriculture and its impact on the environment • Weeds, herbicides and management • agricultural soils of the Prairies • Pest management •Major findings from long-term studies on the Prairies Lafond said scientific jargon has been removed from the articles so that the website can be suitable for a wide audience. The writing style allows anyone with an interest in agriculture to keep abreast of the latest thoughts and findings.

“The articles will be of value to anyone ranging from Grade 11 students to university students to farmers and agrologists,” Lafond said.

“A lot of the excellent research that seldom sees the light of day can now become part of our mainstream pool of knowledge.”

He said raising the level of soil and crop knowledge can have tremendous benefits for the entire agricultural sector.

The website is also a professional development tool for agrologists and certified crop advisers. Exams are being developed to accompany the articles. Certified crop advisers can earn continuing education units by successfully completing these exams.

ORGANICS | GROWTH

Organic week a good time to take stock ORGANIC MATTERS

BRENDA FRICK In recognition of Canada’s Organic Week, the Western Producer is running an additional Organic Matters column this month. The regular column will appear in the first edition of November. ct. 15-22 has been designated Organic Week and will feature activities to celebrate organic food and farming.

This is a good time to take a look at the successes the organic community has achieved and the challenges it still faces.

Organics can no longer be dismissed as a fringe element, a passing trend or the lonely refuge of the diehard hippie.

Organics are established in the marketplace and in the psyche of Canadians, Americans and Europeans.

“The Canadian organic sector has been growing 20 to 35 percent a year, a fairly breathless pace, for many years,” says Matt Holmes, executive director of the Canada Organic Trade Association.

“Even … in the thick of the recession, we saw a slowing down of that growth, but it was still growth.”

However, export markets for organic grain have not been as buoyant in the face of the recession and of rising value of the Canadian dollar. Product is just beginning to move again following the phenomenal prices of previous years and the market stall of the last couple years.

The core organic consumer “gets it,” but marketing has failed to differentiate organic from natural in many consumers’ minds. Many don’t realize that natural is an unregulated term, which the Canadian Food Inspection Agency says is “often misused in labels and in advertisements.”

Organic, on the other hand, is tightly defined, and organic products are third party verified to meet the conditions of their standard.

Canada has an organic standard that was developed by the organic community and enshrined in a mandatory national regulation.

It clearly lays out organic principles: protecting the environment, maintaining soil fertility and biological diversity, recycling resources, providing attentive care to animals, maintaining organic integrity and working toward local agricultural systems.

The standard also clearly indicates processes and practices that are required, approved or disallowed.

The Canadian organic standard is a strong marketing tool, assuring distant customers that Canadian organic products have integrity.

Although Canada has a national organic standard, agriculture is a provincial responsibility, and most provincial governments have not ratified the standard, so it is fully expressed within provincial boundaries.

Quebec and British Columbia are the only provinces with provincial organic standards. Other provinces have been slow to respond.

O

Organic certification is an expensive process. Third party verification involves annual visits by trained inspectors. Producers with limited sales find that the costs are not justified. Simpler, cheaper certification for low risk, small value operations has not yet been developed.

The pioneers of organic agriculture were met with skepticism and often disdain when they claimed they could farm without synthetic chemicals and genetically modified organisms.

Organic producers have since proven that oats, wheat, barley and rye can be grown easily under organic production, and that lentils, flax, peas, hemp, kaput, spelt and mustard can be grown with proper care and rotation management. Research studies and farmers have shown that organic rotations can be profitable.

However, phosphorus fertility has been identified as a potential problem. Studies now ask if this is a real problem or a reflection of how phosphorus is measured.

GM crops continue to threaten the ability of organic farmers to grow crops w ithout contamination.

Canola is largely lost to organic growers, and they worry that alfalfa may soon follow.

Several factors discourage the integration of livestock and the use of perennial crops. It is hard to value natural vegetation in our current economic system. The closer organic systems come to mimicking nature, the more resilient they will be.

Derek Lynch, Canada research chair in organic agriculture, has found that organic farming reduces energy consumption by an average of at least 20 percent compared to conventional farming, primarily because of its focus on green manures rather

than synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

Organic agriculture also contributes less to global warming.

Often the added input of carbon in green manures mitigates any impacts of tillage. Organic practices build soil biodiversity and microbial activity.

On the other hand, weather has been especially challenging in recent years.

Seeding and weed control have been difficult in waterlogged soils.

Climate change models suggest that agriculture will need to work on weather proofing to prosper in the future. Perhaps some of that will include restoring natural wetlands and drainages.

So, overall, how is organics doing? It seems there is much to celebrate this Organic Week. Organic farming has shown great potential as an environmentally sound, healthy, profitable and popular consumer choice.

Although challenges remain, the path ahead looks hopeful.

Organic production has grown and become more sophisticated in production strategy in recent years. | FILE PHOTO

AT HOME ON THE RANGE Photo Essay | Alberta’s provincial hunting day celebration attracted novices trying hunting and other outdoor activities for the first time, as well as veterans honing longacquired skills. | Randy Fiedler Photos

The fifth annual event, held Sept. 25, drew about 100 participants to the Alford Lake Conservation Education Centre for Excellence in the foothills west of Caroline, Alta. Activities included instruction in bows and crossbows, handguns, big and small bore rifles, shotguns, bear awareness, leather working, game calling, fly fishing and trophy measurement.

The event was co-sponsored by Hunting For Tomorrow, a coalition of 20 hunting, fishing and trapping groups ,which promotes involvement and public understanding of hunting, and the Alberta Hunter Education Instructors’ Association. Hunting For Tomorrow executive director Kelly Semple told participants the day was designed to give them “a chance to react with wildlife and wild places and to meet new people.”

Dave Dickson, a provincial fish and wildlife officer who taught the bear awareness course, said the day stressed more than just safety.

“Ethics are a big factor. Hunting is a part of our heritage even though it’s more recreational now.”

» British Columbia’s southeast has a number of protected parks, shown in green.

SKOOKUMCHUCK, B.C. — There are enclosures, so it stands to reason there are also exclosures.

And it’s exclosures that are the focus of range management studies in southeastern British Columbia.

These small fenced areas have kept out elk, deer and cattle since 1951, allowing nature to take its course with vegetative growth.

One exclosure on a piece of land ranched by Barry Minor includes grass species and tree growth that are absent on the rest of the semi-bald pasture.

BARRY MINOR RANCHER

“What this exclosure demonstrates is how resilient these ecosystems are, so with proper management they will return to their ecological potential,” said agronomist Tim Ross, who has studied range management in the region for the last 20 years.

“It’s demonstrating that in the way these ranges are and have been overstocked, by cattle and wild ungulates, and also this goes back to the 1930s because there were thousands of wild horses in this country, too.”

More recently, competing activities and interests have made it difficult to ranch in this region of B.C. Large elk and deer herds, forestry activity and traffic related to golf courses and hot springs expose it to major pressures.

Those involved in recreation, wildlife protection and forestry operations can all be at odds with ranching interests, depending on the situation.

Add that to a falling water table in this region and ranchers have major challenges with grazing management and carrying capacity.

Minor said cattle weight gains of one to two pounds per day are the best he can achieve given the 300 elk and 100 white-tailed deer that traverse his property daily.

Wildlife fencing helped the situation in one of his pastures and he also allows hunting on his property, although that brings its own problems.

“I like 98 percent of the hunters. It’s the other two percent I don’t care for,” Minor told a delegation from the Society for Range Management.

Theft of solar panels used for stock watering and fences left open by hunters have caused problems. So have all-terrain vehicles and dirt bike riders who chase his cattle.

Forest encroachment, which used to be handled by burning, has reduced grazing, he added, and forestry operations aren’t an adequate solution.

This region of B.C. can be extremely dry, and Minor has fed wild elk in previous years to keep them from starving.

“It sure came back to bite me in the butt, but I still feel good in my heart

GRAZING RECOMMENDATIONS The East Kootenay Trench Agriculture/ Wildlife Committee, formed in 1990, has made recommendations on how to improve grazing in southeastern British Columbia and reduce conflicts between ranchers and those with wildlife conservation interests: • Modified cattle herd sizes, shorter grazing periods, improved distribution of water and salt • Cattle stocking rates that are relative to seasonal availability of forage • Wildlife management that balances numbers and ensures wildlife don’t negate gains from better livestock management • Livestock turnout dates in key wildlife winter ranges that allow a rest period for forage plants • Monitoring ecosystem restoration and range health • Emphasis on reducing forest cover on traditional grassland and maintaining open forest sites about it,” he said.

Cattle numbers in the area peaked in the 1960s, then dropped and have been relatively stable since, said Ross.

In the meantime, elk numbers have increased by more than 150 percent and range conditions have deteriorated as a result.

He believes elk are aware of hunting season and have adapted to the pressure by grazing at night and even

TIM ROSS AGRONOMIST

bugling less often.

They’ve become accustomed to grazing in ranchers’ pastures and hay fields.

However, Ross said other exclosure studies that allow limited access by cattle and elk show promise. Grass growth improves when access is well managed.

Ross shares some of Minor’s frustration with competing interests of government depar tments and groups.

“Ultimately we have sectors being managed separately instead of managing the ecosystem as a whole,” said Ross.

“My favourite analogy is, if this was your Skookumchuk Land Timber Wildlife Company, would you have your divisions squabbling? As CEO, you’d say no, get it together or you guys are all gone.”

He thinks a focus on broader goals of functional grassland and forest management is needed.

“It’s an evolving and interesting story down here. And I don’t want to sound like I’m blaming anybody at all. It is what it is. It’s complicated and it’s challenging.”

Now introducing Component TE-100 with Tylan

requirements, she told a National Farm Animal Care Council (NFACC) conference Oct. 5. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having the codes prevents the proliferation of animal care programs and they allow us to speak confidently about how we treat our animals.â&#x20AC;?

The council has come a long way since its inaugural gathering in 2005.

Within two years, all livestock and poultry groups will have codes of practice in place and will have begun formal assessments of their operations, said Ron Horel, NFACC vicechair and president of the Canadian Poultry and Egg Processors Council. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Good animal care is good business, a moral responsibility and the right thing to do,â&#x20AC;? he said.

NFACC general manager Jackie Wepruk said the codes are the product of collaborative work by farm groups, animal welfare organizations, the food industry and government topped off with a peer reviewed scientific assessment review. Every proposed code is open for a 60 day public comment period before a final assessment is done.

She said the system still has shortcomings, including erratic and unpredictable research funding and the lack of a system for training animal welfare assessors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then there is the concern about whether the codes will be ignored by farmers, or what happens if our research doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mesh with the views of animal welfare groups.â&#x20AC;?

Jane Goodridge, who does hog research at the University of Manitoba, said farm groups have â&#x20AC;&#x153;to get our animal care message out to the public.â&#x20AC;? Eliminating farrowing stalls isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily going to make life better for sows, she added.

Susie Miller, director-general of sector development at Agriculture Canada, said the public expects the government to take a leadership role

on animal care issues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The treatment of farm animals also has a growing place in international trade agreements.â&#x20AC;?

She said the government looks to NFACC to establish a credible process for ensuring the codes will improve the lives of farm animals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Government doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to get into this.â&#x20AC;?

She said it wants viable codes of practice included in the Growing Forward II program when it comes into effect in 2013.

Miller said having everyone on board at NFACC also means â&#x20AC;&#x153;the government doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to defend one sector over anotherâ&#x20AC;? if there are complaints about animal care. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It also makes it easier to maintain our export markets if our care programs are up to international standards.â&#x20AC;?

She urged farmers to use the publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trust in them to communicate how their husbandr y practices ensure animals are well treated.

Scovil said her sector was one of the first to encounter animal welfare challenges. In 2001, the European Union announced it would ban sow nursing stalls and require farmers to give their pigs more space. At the same time, major American grocery retailers began imposing animal welfare requirements on their suppliers.

The pork council assembled a team of producers, researchers and government officials to work out an animal care plan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We looked at how the proposed changes would affect the animals and from that we developed a care assessment program that examined how pigs responded to different systems.â&#x20AC;?

The councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s code of practice decertifies farmers who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t maintain their animal care activities, she added.

CATTLE BLOAT | PREVENTION

Cattle bloat: early diagnosis, treatment is essential ANIMAL HEALTH

ROY LEWIS, DVM

Bloat occurs when the microflora in the rumen are altered or killed, allowing excessive gas to be produced.

bloaters and grain overloads.

Probiotics or rumen stimulants can be tried if rumen contents are not available. They come in powder, paste or bolus form and may need to be applied several times to turn the condition around.

A rumen fistula is done if these treatments fail, which involves creating a hole from the rumen to the outside.

The area over the left flank is clipped and frozen. The internal rumen wall is then sutured to the skin, which creates a toonie size hole directly into the rumen. It is permanent or gradually heals over several months.

This is a quick and inexpensive

procedure with good results. The rumen gases will continually escape and the animal will do better because there is no pressure. The rumen microflora re-establish themselves over time.

I have never read anything on this, but I suspect some cases occur when a growth spurt occurs and the calf is unable to eructate the gases quick enough. These specific cases make a dramatic improvement with a rumen fistula.

If the bloat is initiated by a primary disease, producers must assess the cost of the treatment and fistulation and the odds of the calf recovering from the primary disease. Chronic

BV D o r p n e u m o n i a c a s e s c a n become chronic bloaters and are euthanized if suspected.

I look at the calf’s demeanor when determining whether a fistula is economical. The procedure is probably not war ranted if the animal is extremely rough haired and has been a poor doer for a long time. All other cases warrant a fistula and can go on to be normal productive animals in the feedlot.

Marketing the fistulated calf must also be considered.

There is no problem if the producer is rail grading, but animals are often discounted if the fistula is evident.

Local butchering may be in order.

These calves create quite a sight in the winter because steam rises out of the fistula. We once had to do this to a 4-H calf, and at achievement day the member smartly glued a patch of denim over the fistula.

Producers should only experience these chronic bloaters occasionally.

Those who see too many of these cases should review their feeding programs with their veterinarian or nutritionists because they may be bringing cattle onto feed too quickly.

There may also be some other underlying health problem.

Roy Lewis is a veterinarian practising in Westlock, Alta.

A

ll cattle producers are plagued by the occasional chronic bloater. The problem is knowing what to do with them.

A chronic bloater is a free gas bloat that keeps reoccurring. The gas can readily be let off with a tube but then reoccurs within a day or so. The cattle always do poorly, which is why treatment must be initiated.

The rumen microflora have been altered or killed, which allows excessive gas to be produced. The calf ’s ability to eructate or belch up the gas may also have been altered. All these factors come into play when deciding treatment.

The microflora can be killed by sickness, sudden changes in feed and especially when cattle go off feed.

Treatment focuses on the primary sickness, if there is one, and re-establishing these microflora. If bloating continues, the next decision is whether to do a minor surgery called rumen fistula.

The ideal way to re-establish the rumen microflora is with rumen fluid from a healthy animal on similar feed. This may be attempted if there is a packing plant close by or producers do their own butchering.

The rumen contents are squeezed or filtered to get a gallon or so of rumen fluid, which is then pumped into the sick animal using a larger bore stomach tube.

Some pumps are better able to handle larger particulate matter.

Take care not to chill these rumen juices because their own environment is body temperature and they are sensitive to chilling.

It is best to pump the juices in as soon as possible. Repeating the procedure may be necessary in advanced cases.

Teaching colleges have a fistulated animal with a large plug that can be taken out when rumen contents are removed. I wish every large animal practice had access to one of these fistulated animals because they would be useful for treating chronic access=subscriber section=livestock,none,none

New drugs offer protection to pigs Diseases slow gain and reduce efficiency

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Agenda: • SCA Director Elections • SCA Activity Update • CCA Guest Speakers

www.saskbeef.com

WOODSTOCK, Ont. — Bob Brcka believes pork production is similar to a car assembly line, but without the electronic efficiency.

However, as new radio frequency identification (RFID) technology comes into more use in the pork sector, the industry will run as smoothly and efficiently as the automobile industry, he said.

“What goes on in the swine farm is like an assembly line,” said Brcka, general manager of PigChamp, a computer software program for the hog industry.

Like assembly lines in the automobile industry, pig production is separated in different areas of breeding, feeding, farrowing, weaning, growing, finishing, trucking and slaughter.

Between each area of production, staff often write down ear tag numbers of each pig being moved on a piece of paper before transferring it to a computer.

Writing numbers on paper is time consuming and prone to error, said Brcka of Ames, Iowa.

He believes RFID technology used in other livestock industries to track the movement of animals will soon become a tool all pork producers use in their barns to measure the efficiency of each step of the pig assembly line.

“It’s completely accurate information and you never have to write it down on a piece of paper,” he told visitors during an RFID demonstration at the Outdoor Farm Show in

Woodstock.

“You can’t improve what you can’t measure.”

By having the information move from an RFID hand reader to a computer, producers can see which is the most efficient pig, which line of pigs grows the fastest, or which sow raised all her piglets.

“It’s an opportunity to look for efficiencies. It’s a way to turn data into making better decisions.”

While electronic ear tags and identification is mandatory on other animals, it hasn’t become part of the pork industry.

A p i l o t p ro j e c t i n O n t a r i o i s attempting to measure the financial savings of using electronic information gathering instead of people gathering and transferring the information to a computer.

An application for a similar project has been put forward in Alberta, but has not yet been approved.

“I’m paying someone in the barn to collect the information and someone else to put the information into the computer.

“With the RFID reader, the information is automatically updated into the PigChamp program. It won’t let you make a mistake.”

Brcka said the technology gives producers information about when a pig was bred, when it farrowed, how large a litter it had and how many of the litter survived and then it allows producers to track the live pigs until the animals are finished and slaughtered.

Bar codes on bags of feed and vials of semen can allow even more detailed information tracking.

Two new injectable drugs recently released by Pfizer Animal Health are designed to prevent porcine circovirus and mycoplasma pneumonia.

RespiSure One, developed to help prevent development of pneumonia i n p i g l e t s, i s t h e o n l y p ro d u c t approved for administration at one day of age.

“It gives the opportunity for the producer or veterinarian to give the vaccine ahead of any opportunity for infection,” said Dr. Walter Heuser, veterinarian and swine business unit director for Pfizer Animal Health Canada.

Mycoplasma pneumonia is one of the most common diseases in the hog industry. It reduces average daily gain and feed efficiency. A two millilitre dose given in the first week of life can provide up to 25 weeks of immunity, Pfizer said in a news release.

Fostera PCV protects against porcine circovirus, which is prevalent in hog populations. The product is labelled for use in three-week old pigs as an aid in preventing viremia, a condition where viruses enter the bloodstream.

It is also designed to be useful in controlling PCV2. Pfizer said the product can provide four months of immunity in a single two mL dose.

Heuser said the two drugs can be administered at the same time. However, producers who want to treat piglets with both products at once must do it when the piglets are at least three weeks old because only RespiSure One can be given at one day of age.

He declined to give the cost of the products.

“That’s not something we discuss,” he said. “It’s price competitive in the marketplace.”

Both products are available exclusively through Canadian veterinarians.

Natural extracts fed to cows could reduce farm odours Plant extracts explored | Tannins binding onto feed protein reduce digestibility in the rumen, slowing the cowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s digestion

BY MARGARET EVANS FREELANCE WRITER

LINDELL BEACH, B.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Adding natural plant extracts to cattle feed may reduce levels of ammonia gas while also reducing the need to fortify feed with expensive protein supplements.

J. Mark Powell, a soil scientist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, says 25 to 30 percent of the crude protein consumed by cattle ends up in the milk while 70 to 75 percent ends up in urine and feces. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For dairy farms, cow urine is the source of the ammonia emission problem,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Each) dairy cow excretes large amounts of urine, about 3.5 gallons daily. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost 1,300 gallons (almost 5,000 litres) per year. And there are 10 million dairy cows in the United States alone. Cows usually are fed a high protein diet and they produce various nitrogen compounds when they digest protein.

They release the excess nitrogen mainly in their urine, and enzymes convert it into ammonia.â&#x20AC;?

Recent studies have found that adding plant substances called tannins to cow feed affects ammonia emissions from dairy barns and farm fields that have been sprayed with manure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What happens with the tannin is that it can bind onto the feed protein and make it less digestible in the rumen,â&#x20AC;? Powell told the American Chemical Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national meeting and exposition this summer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gets into the small intestine, where it is used much more efficient-

ly. Tannin actually retards the digestive process.â&#x20AC;?

They appear to reduce urea production by allowing more protein to escape digestion in the stomach and enter the cowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intestines, where it is used to produce milk protein.

Powell first began investigating the value of tannins 20 years ago in West African communities where he lived and worked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The tannin concentration in plants in the tropics is much higher than elsewhere,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It acts as one of those protections against insects and against overbrowsing by small ruminants. Shrubs rich in tannins were used as windbreaks to reduce soil erosion. The leaves became a food supplement.â&#x20AC;?

Leaves falling from the plants aided in soil fertility because the tannin in the leaves slowed decomposition in the soil. Tannin is found in many hardwoods such as maple, oak and chestnut. Fruits given off by those trees are also rich in tannin.

Tannin is most commonly associated with the leather industry, where it is derived from organic products.

However, further research will be necessary to develop a synthetic product if Powellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work expands the use of tannin into a significant agricultural feed supplement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tannins, their chemistry and their complex compounds are little understood,â&#x20AC;? said Powell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The research is being started at a fundamental stage right now. What weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done is that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve extracted them with different solvents to try to get heavy compounds, light com-

pounds, and water soluble compounds. Once we can find the particular compound class that has the effect of inhibiting ammonia, then we can take that class of compounds and try to understand what the specific compounds are within that class.â&#x20AC;?

Powell is working with chemists to understand how the natural compound works, but a critical part of the research will be to understand how those compounds react when the tannin is processed into a feed.

Tannin could be added to feed on the farm as a supplement to the daily diet, into forage before it goes into the silo or into concentrates at the feed mill.

However, researchers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what happens to the tannin during processing or whether heat affects its effectiveness.

One of Powellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s colleagues from Australia conducted a study to incorporate tannin into a concentrate but found that the tannin lost its impact.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was quite puzzled as to why,â&#x20AC;? said Powell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wondered whether the process of getting the tannin into the concentrate neutralized it.â&#x20AC;?

Another research project is determining whether tannins can reduce emissions of methane gas from cattle belches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now that we have multi-gas analyzers, we can actually analyze tanninsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; impact on ammonia, methane, carbon dioxide and other volatile organic compounds.â&#x20AC;?

Ethanol proposal gets a boost Nipawin connection | Reno, Nevada, cellulose ethanol plant in to use technology from Saskatchewan

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A plan to build a $200 million cellulose ethanol plant in Nipawin, Sask., has received a boost from a related project in the United States.

Fulcrum BioEnergy Inc. is proceeding with plans to build a cellulose ethanol plant in Reno, Nevada, using conversion technology jointly developed by the Nipawin Biomass Ethanol New Generation Co-operative Ltd. and the Saskatchewan Research Council.

Fulcrum is seeking regulatory approval for a $115 million US initial public offering to build a plant that will produce 40 million litres of ethanol annually out of household garbage.

The fact that a U.S. biofuel company is attempting to build a commercial scale facility using SRC technology that processes synthesis gas into ethanol and other alcohols has injected new life into the Nipawin project.

It has prompted the co-operative to sign another contract with the SRC to refine the catalytic process used by Fulcrum to convert non-merchantable waste timber and locally grown flax and hemp fibre into ethanol.

“Our facility will be among the first in the world to convert cellulose into ethanol and we need to ensure that the technology and conversion process best match our feedstock,” said Nipawin project manager Robin Woodward.

The Nipawin plant would use forestry and farm waste material to produce 100 million litres of ethanol

Fulcrum has a pilot facility in North Carolina where it tests its catalytic technology. annually. The facility would require 200,000 tonnes of oven dried cellulosic fibre per year, two-thirds of which would come from forest residue and the remainder from farmers

in the Nipawin region.

“It’s a major project,” said Woodward.

The co-operative, which comprises 180 investors, many of whom are

farmers, has been working on the project since 1999. The group announced plans in 2003 to build a 75 million litre plant over the next three years.

Woodward said the company has taken so long to move into the building phase because there was no off-theshelf catalyst that would turn fibre into fuel. It had to hire the SRC to create one and test it in a real-world setting.

In exchange for granting Fulcrum the right to use its proprietary cellulose conversion technology, the Nipawin group will receive process management help from Fulcrum on how to best use the catalyst.

“We want to take everything they know and perfect it so that it can take flax and forestry residue and give us the optimal product,” said Woodward.

The SRC’s report is expected next spring.

Woodward doesn’t know what the co-op will pay farmers for their flax and hemp residue, but he is certain it would make the crops more profitable.

Some analysts believe growers are g e t t i ng o u t o f f la x pro du ctio n because the crop can’t compete with canola’s per acre returns.

“We hope that if there’s some money coming from the fibre sale that wasn’t in the farmers’ pockets before, it will change the economics,” he said.

He also hopes for a solution to the genetically modified organism contamination issue, which has closed European markets, by the time the company approaches Nipawin area farmers to sign fibre contracts.

TAX ADVICE | FARM INCOME

Managing tax implications of farm income volatility Under a corporate structure, many farm business decisions can go beyond income tax management Every business owner has tax obligations, but annual tax requirements can be daunting for farmers, who often face volatility in their income from year to year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is not unusual on the farm to have a good income and a hefty tax bill one year and substantially less farm income the following year, with no avenue to recapture the income tax paid in the previous year,â&#x20AC;? says Merle Good, a tax strategy specialist with Alberta Agriculture.

The Canada Revenue Agency had a â&#x20AC;&#x153;five year block averageâ&#x20AC;? provision in place for many years, allowing taxpayers to average a high income year over the previous four years, thereby reducing tax liability in the current year. This provision has since been repealed.

One remaining option to help farmers manage their tax obligations is to create a family farm corporation.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the current economic climate, where input costs, commodity prices and farm incomes are especially volatile, the flat 14 percent corporate tax rate has become very attractive to many farm families,â&#x20AC;? says Good.

The small business corporate income tax rate in Alberta for 2011 is 14 percent for up to $500,000 of taxable income, whereas the 2011 tax rate for an unincorporated business is 39 per cent on taxable income earned after $128,000.

Even the middle tax brackets are high: income between $40,000 and $80,000 is taxed at 32 percent.

Using a corporation this year can be

tax effective. Under current income tax rules, farmers can transfer their grain and livestock inventory to their corporation in exchange for shares under Section 85 of the Income Tax Act. This is not a sale and thus no income is reported by the producer.

Any farm sales and income received after the date of incorporation will be reported by the company and not the farmer in 2011. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Under a corporate â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;family farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; structure, many business decisions can go beyond simple income tax management and be based on considerations about overall profitability,â&#x20AC;? said Good.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;With many farmers still requiring some off-farm income, a corporate structure can also be beneficial as no farm income would be reported on the personal tax return. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Restructuring a farm business as a corporation certainly manages some income tax issues, but is also an excellent mechanism within which to start dealing with succession planning for family farms.â&#x20AC;Ś Addressing an income tax concern can become a catalyst to start your succession planning discussion with the next generation.â&#x20AC;?

MANUFACTURING | EXPANSION

Seed Hawk officially opens $7.5 million expansion Manufacturing plant will triple production capacity SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Seeding equipment manufacturer Seed Hawk officially opened the expansion of its plant in Langbank, Sask., on Oct. 3.

The $7.5 million project is the second step in a multi-phase expansion plan.

It provides an additional 50,000 sq. feet of space for manufacturing and administration and brings the total space to about 100,000 sq. feet.

As well as tripling Seed Hawkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s production capacity and increasing manufacturing efficiency, the new space allows for a dedicated research and product development area.

About 300 people attended the event, including Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From its humble beginnings, an entrepreneurial idea in 1986, to a company today that markets homegrown innovation across the world, Seed Hawk is to be commended for investing in our economy and creating 120 jobs right here in Saskatchewan,â&#x20AC;? said Wall in a news release.

S o l i d d o m e s t i c a n d g ro w i n g exports drove the need for the expansion.

Seed Hawk recently announced that growing interest for its equipment and technology in Australia has caused it to take over sales administration of its business there.

Its Swedish partner Vaderstad Verken had been managing the Australian business. access=subscriber section=ag_finance,none,none

The rising costs of obesity Alberta takes holistic approach | Province announces five-year plan to combat weight gain

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

A new fat tax in Denmark generated an international media buzz in early October as television pundits, nutritionists and obesity experts debated the merits of a tax on unhealthy eating habits.

The Danes introduced the world’s first tax on fatty food earlier this month, which will increase the price of lard, sausages, pastries and other food high in saturated fats.

The tax on food that contains more than 2.3 percent saturated fat means Danish consumers will pay $2.90 per kilogram of saturated fat in a product.

An American publication, the New American, estimated the tax would increase the price of cheese in Denmark by 50 cents per pound and a half pound of butter would rise by 45 cents.

A few European countries and other jurisdictions may follow Den-

mark’s lead, but Alberta is taking a less controversial and more holistic approach to weight gain.

In an effort to move beyond diet pills, fad diets and ad hoc public policy, last month the provincial government announced a five-year plan to help Albertans combat weight gain in a co-ordinated and comprehensive manner.

The Alberta Health Services Obesity Initiative will include more funding for bariatric surgery, school based programs to tackle rising rates of childhood obesity and new programs helping adults prevent future weight gain.

In a release touting the initiative, Alberta Health Services noted that obesity is linked to 22 chronic diseases, including 90 percent of Type 2 diabetes and 80 percent of cardiovascular disease.

Dr. Arya Sharma, medical director of the obesity initiative and founder of the Canadian Obesity Network, said the Alberta approach

moves beyond the usual platitudes and simplistic remedies for dropping pounds.

“I hear all too often we wouldn’t have an obesity problem if people would just eat less and move more,” said Sharma, chair of obesity research at the University of Alberta.

“It’s a position I consistently challenge because the patients I treat have far more complex challenges, ranging from physical and mental health co-morbidities to socio-economic barriers.

“Many patients simply do not have the capacity or support to alter their circumstances.”

Alberta’s initiative is timely because Community Foundations of Canada released a status report on Canadian obesity this fall.

In the report, Canada’s Vital Signs 2011, the organization noted that 18.1 percent of Canadian adults identify themselves as obese, an increase of 2.8 percent since 2003.

The statistical trend demon-

strates that existing methods to fight obesity aren’t working, said Ian Bird, Community Foundations of Canada president. “(There are) many initiatives and most of them are probably making a contribution, but they’re probably not aligned, matched, leveraged and co-ordinated, based on where communities are at,” he said.

“So it appears this is the step that Alberta is taking.”

On his website, www.drsharma. ca, Sharma said obesity isn’t about food and exercise. Rather, it is an issue of time.

“We work more hours today than ever before… we have less time to buy and prepare healthy food … we have created a society in which we do not even have enough time to eat,” he said.

“Our parents and grandparents were paid to be physically active.

Today you have to pay to be physically active…. For many of us, time is money.”

KELVINGTON, Sask. — Alberta 4-H members in equine programs at levels one, two and three must now wear properly fitted helmets while mounted.

The requirement, which came into effect in the province Oct. 1, is already in the rule book for 4-H clubs in Ontario and British Columbia.

“Safety, of course, is our main objective,” said Stacy Price, president of the Alberta 4-H Council.

“We felt it was important to teach the kids at a young age that wearing a helmet is very important and the best way to do it is with our newest members.”

Levels are based not on age but time in the club and skill level.

In addition, all 4-H participants b o r n i n 2 0 0 0 a n d l at e r w i l l b e required to wear helmets so that eventually the rule will apply to all members. Members who don’t wear helmets will not be allowed to ride.

Statistics in a brochure from the Ontario Equestrian Federation are sobering. Horseback riders are hospitalized due to severe head injuries more often than people involved in hockey, football, boxing and soccer.

While a fall from 60 centimetres can cause permanent brain damage, a horse can elevate a rider’s head to three metres or more. Riders age 10 to 14 are most likely to be involved in an accident with a horse.

There has been opposition to the new rule, just as there was to bicycle and hockey helmets, Price said.

“I think the thing is people don’t want to be told, not that they don’t believe in helmets or don’t agree with them. It’s just that they don’t want to be told that their children have to wear them.”

Some children have also complained, but others have already decided on their own to wear helmets.

Helmets for all members while mounted is already the rule in Alberta’s Pony Clubs, which are not affiliated with 4-H. Clubs have been told what is required when choosing a helmet. It should be snug but shouldn’t pinch.

It must be a properly fitting equestrian helmet approved by the American Society for Testing of Materials Equipment Institute or British Standard Institution.

Equestrian shops and many western supply stores will have staff members who can help fit a helmet.

“We get our insurance through Canadian Council and at this time it is not their mandate that kids have to wear helmets, but with the changing times we believe that is going to come down eventually,” Price said.

“This is another thing too. We’re trying to be proactive.” access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

VACCINES | INFLUENZA

Flu will affect 20 percent of the population this winter HEALTH CLINIC

year? Should my five-year-old child get a shot?

A: CLARE ROWSON, MD

Vaccinations are not recommended for newborns

Q:

Some people tell me that they do not want to get a flu vaccination because they have heard it might give them the flu. Can this happen? I had a flu shot last year.

Do I need to get another one this

The flu season runs from November to April, with most cases occurring between late December and early March.

Ten to 20 percent of the population will get flu every winter, and the chances of becoming ill are even greater for young children. Most of them are not exposed to flu before attending day care or school and have little immunity.

As many as 40 percent of children become sick from the influenza virus, and hospitalization and death from flu complications are realities.

Immunizing children against influenza is perhaps the best method to reduce the occurrence of flu in the community. The influenza attack

rate drops by 40 percent if children receive the flu shot but the rest of the family abstains. The rate drops by 80 percent when parents also get the flu shot. These are impressive statistics.

It is also important for health-care workers to get a flu shot, but you may be surprised at how many do not.

They are often in contact with the weak, sick and elderly, who are generally more at risk of complications and death than healthy individuals.

Yes, you need to get a flu shot every year because the virus is constantly mutating and changing to try and outwit the vaccine. The shots will be produced using the manufacturersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best guess as to which viruses are likely to be prevalent in this flu season. They often contain a mixture of two or three varieties.

Visit www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/flu-

watch/ for more information about the flu and the number of cases in your area.

No, it is not true that the flu vaccination can give you the flu. Sometimes a person will coincidentally get a cold, and flu shots will not protect you from that. Other times, people were already incubating a case of flu and the shot came too late to offer protection. It can take two weeks for the full effect of the vaccine to take place.

Sometimes there are mild side effects such as a sore, hot arm. People can experience a mild runny nose and scratchy throat for up to 24 hours after getting the shot, but that is rare.

The main differences between colds and flu are that the latter will result in a higher fever, more acute onset, headache, muscle aches and

pains and marked weakness. Both colds and flu cause runny noses and sore throats.

Please take your five-year-old for a flu vaccination. You may be surprised to hear that the Americans actually beat us in the number of cases of child flu they prevent each year.

The flu shot is free in most provinces for children, the elderly, health-care workers and those at increased risk of health complications such as asthmatics. Flu vaccinations are free for everyone In Ontario.

These vaccinations are not recommended for babies younger than six months.

Large family thrives on self-sufficiency Sustaining century farm | Operation includes children

BY NADEN HEWKO FREELANCE WRITER

DENZIL, Sask. — Going totally organic was a new idea and raised some eyebrows, but David and Valerie Witzaney wanted to give their growing family the healthiest food possible.

“We also wanted to run a family business with (our 11) children having a responsible part in it,” said Valerie.

Farming is a family tradition for David and Valerie Witzaney. Their western Saskatchewan farm was homesteaded in 1911 by Joseph George and Margaret Witzaney, who passed it to their son, Ted, and his wife, Barbara.

When Ted died suddenly, his son, David, took over the farm, turning to organic farming in 1999 and receiving organic certification in 2002.

David said chemical free farming has been good for his land.

“Not using any chemicals brought many benefits to the soil, which had previously been hard and lumpy, (and) became soft and mellow.”

To add value to the family’s organically grown grain, the Witzaneys

bought a grain processing facility from a retiring organic producer.

“The beauty of these machines is that they are mounted on wheels and were easy to move to our farm. The fellow who owned them also gave us his clientele list so we had ready customers to buy what we produced,” David said.

The family grows some of the grains processed and the rest are obtained from other certified organic farmers.

They include oats, wheat, barley, rye, flax, lentils, millet and triticale.

The Witzaneys’ teenaged son, Josh, explained how oats are cleaned before being dehulled and then cold rolled into oat flakes.

“No heat is used in the process so the oat germ remains alive and the product must be refrigerated to prolong its shelf life,” said Josh.

David explained that oats are dehulled but not rolled for use as a substitute for rice.

For peas and flax, a special machine is used to remove the outer coat of the peas, which are then split and packaged in one to 25 kilogram bags. Flax is only cleaned and packaged, but not access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

ground because it goes rancid quickly.

Another machine removes about 75 per cent of the seed coat from the hulless barley to produce pot barley for use in soups.

“We do not make pearl barley as that retains only 50 percent of the kernel. The rest gets sucked out the fan and is mixed in with animal feed,” David said.

“We not only sell grains, but make several varieties of flour as well.

Wheat is stone milled into whole wheat flour with a small percentage of the bran being removed to make a finer product.”

Cleaned grain is cracked and put through a second machine to produce finer granules for a variety of cereals (rye, barley, triticale, millet and flax), seven grain (wheat, rye, triticale, barley, oat flakes, millet, and flax) and Wheatlets cereal (a high fibre cream of wheat.)

The family also makes seven grain flour and pancake mixes.

Their wheat is tested at Sunwest Labs in Saskatoon for the falling number, which must be 300 or higher to produce good bread.

The Witzaneys raise most of their own food, including free run Leghorn and Red Sussex chickens. They also raise organic hogs, which are processed at Alberta slaughter plants.

They plan to expand the family vegetable garden to grow for other families. Their son, Matthew, 10, has planted and raised spaghetti squash for the non-profit Midwest Food Resource Project.

Their orchard includes cherries, plums and haskap. They also have a Jersey cow for the family’s own use.

“And all the work is done by us and our children,” said David.

They support the 100 mile diet and provide organic good food boxes for customers, making monthly deliveries to nearby towns, Saskatoon and Edmonton, and quarterly to Calgary through Eat Food for Life, an association of small family farms. The good food box may contain chicken, eggs, pork, flour, cereal and pancake mix.

Valerie said they also occasionally sell at farmers’ markets, trade fairs and family food co-operatives.

“You also can come do farm pickup

for a discount. Most of our organic grain is sold to wholesalers and retailed in bulk or repackaged under other brand names,” she said.

Four wind turbines generate electricity to run the family’s grain processing plant.

David checked out several before settling on these turbines.

“The main power meter can send power in either direction, charging us for power or crediting us for any excess. If surplus power is generated, it goes into the Sask Power system and if there is not enough electricity, it draws from the provincial line.

“An inverter, which turns the DC current into AC, is housed in this small building. A heavy-duty cable leads from the turbines to the main power box on the farm.”

These turbines are Canadian made and designed for small farms and acreages, with each turbine generating up to 3.5 kilowatts per hour.

The turbines have a brake so that they can be stopped if wind speeds reach more than 90 km/h per hour.

“The consumption of power by our facility is very large so this system helps keep the cost down,” said David.

For the future, Valerie wants to continue to provide quality organic products while sustaining the century old family farm.

“David left an oilfield related job to devote his full time to organic farming and we are enjoying success and working together as a family,” she said.

“Living and working on the farm gives them practical use of their education,” said Valerie,who home schools the children.

NUTRITION | RECOMMENDATIONS

Eating healthier the Canada Food Guide way TEAM RESOURCES

BETTY ANN DEOBALD, BSHEc

I

t is essential to plan meals and prepare a list before heading to the store. Impulse shopping can quickly fill up the grocery cart with empty calories and extra costs.

Canada’s Food Guide at www.hc-sc. gc.ca/fn-an/food-guide-aliment/ index-eng.php is a good starting point to help plan a variety of meals. The following are recommendations from Canada’s Food Guide to get you started: Vegetables & fruit • A serving is 1/2 cup (125 mL) of fresh, frozen or canned vegetables or fruit or 100 percent juice or 1 c.

(250 mL) of leafy raw vegetables or salad or one piece of fruit.

• Select at least one dark green and one orange vegetable each day to ensure that you are getting enough vitamin A and folate. Examples of green vegetables are arugula, broccoli, chard, dandelion greens, kalecollards and salad greens, including Romaine lettuce or spinach.

Orange vegetables include carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, pumpkin or yams. Orange fruits like apricots, cantaloupes, mangoes, nectarines, papaya and peaches also contain vitamin A and can be selected in place of one orange vegetable.

• Fresh, frozen or canned vegetables are all nutritious options. Select canned vegetables that have lower sodium (salt), or drain and rinse with water to lower the salt content.

Canned fruit packed in heavy syrup has more sugar and calories, so select fruit packed in fruit juice or choose unsweetened frozen fruit.

• Whole vegetables and fruits have more fibre than fruit or vegetable juices. Only select juice occasionally. When buying juices, pick 100 percent juice. Fruit flavoured drinks, punches or cocktails have more sugar and do not count as a food guide serving.

• Check the salt content on vegetable juices and select a lower sodium vegetable juice. Satisfy your thirst with water instead of juices.

• Food with “vegetable or fruit” written on the label does not mean they belong in the guide’s vegetable and fruit group. Fruit candy, jams or spreads, vegetable chips and ketchup may contain a lot of sugar or fat or are high in salt.

• Serve vegetables and fruits with little or no added fat, sugar or salt and avoid extra breading and sauces.

Grains • A serving is one slice (35 grams) of bread or 1/2 bagel (45 g) or 1/2 pita (35 g) or 1/2 tortilla (35 g) or 1/2 c.

(125 mL) cooked rice, pasta or couscous or 30 g. cold cereal or 3/4 c. (175 mL) hot cereal.

• Make at least half of your grain choices whole grains such as whole wheat pasta or couscous, barley,

brown rice, oats, quinoa or wild rice.

• Look at the ingredient list rather than the colour of a food to determine if it is a whole grain food.

Brown bread may simply be white bread coloured with molasses.

• Buy bread, pasta and cereals made from whole grains. The first ingredient listed on the food package should be whole wheat, whole oats, whole rye, whole grain corn, brown rice, wild rice, barley, bulgur or oats. Choose whole wheat, multi-grain or pumpernickel varieties of bread, bagels, pita bread or tortillas.

• Pick a cereal that is made with whole grains, bran or oats. A high fibre cereal provides at least four grams of fibre per serving. Oat and wheat bran cereals may not be whole grain but they are still good high fibre choices.

• Choose grain products that are lower in sugar and salt. Limit grain products high in fat, particularly those made with hydrogenated and trans fats such as cookies, crackers and other baked goods.

• Keep cookies, cakes, pastries, pies, croissants, and doughnuts for special occasions.

Milk & alternatives • A serving is 1 c. (250 mL) milk or fortified soy beverage, 3/4 c. (175 mL) yogurt or 1 1/2 oz. (50 g) cheese.

• Select lower fat milk, skim, one or two percent, or drink fortified soy beverages. The soy beverage should be fortified with calcium and vitamin D. • When selecting yogurt, check the label for calories and sugar content. Choose one with two percent milk fat or less. When selecting cheeses, look for less than 20 percent milk fat. Limit food that is high in fat and calories like cream cheese, ice cream, coffee cream, whipping cream and sour cream.

• The healthy fat can be incorporated into meals while cooking or as salad dressings, mayonnaise or margarine.

Why fats are necessary • Suggested servings per day: 2–3 tbsp. (30 – 45 mL) A small amount of unsaturated fat needs to be included in your diet each day to

ensure you get the fat required for good health. Unsaturated vegetable oils include canola, flaxseed, corn, olive, peanut, soybean and sunflower. Limit butter, hard margarine, lard and shortening .

• With Canada’s Food Guide in mind, look through grocery store flyers to see what’s on sale and what can be used in menus for the week. Also look for basic staples that may be on sale.

• Check to see what fresh food you have on hand that can be used.

Food that has to be discarded because they spoil, are stale dated or freezer burned is like throwing your money in the garbage.

• When menu planning, think about how you can cook once and use the food for two or three meals or lunches.

• Keep track of your menus. That can make it easier to plan and shop in future. Post your meal plan for the week on the fridge door so the first person home can start the meal.

Meat & alternatives • A serving is 2 1/2 oz. (75 g) or 1/2 c.

(125 mL) cooked fish, shellfish, poultry or lean meat or 3/4 c. (175 mL) cooked beans or lentils or 2 eggs, 2 tbsp. (30 mL) peanut butter or 1/4 c. (60 mL) nuts and seeds.

• Meat alternatives such as beans, lentils and tofu are inexpensive sources of protein, are high in fibre and low in fat. Use dry roasted nuts or seeds that have no added oil or salt.

• Select poultry or lean pork, beef, veal, lamb, moose, caribou or deer.

Lean or extra lean cuts include inside and outside round roast, eye of round steak or roast, strip loin steak, sirloin steak, rump roast and lean or extra lean ground meat or ground poultry. When eating poultry, discard the skin.

• Limit the amount of fat or salt that is added during preparation. Avoid bacon and processed meats and sausages because of their fat and salt content. Select low fat and low sodium varieties. Avoid fish, meats and poultr y that have added breading and sauces.

• Plan to include at least two servings of fish each week. Select char, herring, mackerel, salmon, sardines and trout because they are particularly high in omega 3 fatty acids, which have heart health benefits. access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

SENIORS | SUNDOWNER’S SYNDROME

Condition causes wandering and confusion in sufferers SPEAKING OF LIFE

JACKLIN ANDREWS, BA, MSW

Q:

When we stopped to pick Mom up from the nursing home recently to bring her back to our place for the weekend, the attendant who brought her out to the car warned us that Mom had developed Sundowner’s syndrome and that we should

watch out for her in the evenings.

I know that Mom gets confused occasionally, but why wouldn’t she?

She is 87 years old. But this whole thing about Sundowner’s syndrome is new to me. Can you tell me anything about it?

A:

I can share general ideas about Sundowner’s syndrome, but I would be remiss if I did not first advise you to consult with your mother’s personal physician to learn more about her specific condition.

Sundowner’s syndrome refers to a condition seen mainly in the elderly.

They become confused, agitated and disorientated either late in the after-

noon or early in the evening, just about the time that the sun is setting.

Those who get Sundowner’s syndrome already have other forms of dementia, including Alzheimer’s, but it is not always the case. Some who have lost their hearing or who have developed visual impairments have been known to get it, as have diabetics and others who are in extreme pain.

Patients with Sundowner’s syndrome wander off and get lost in their confusion or let their agitation disturb and interfere with the lives of others.

It’s important to encourage them to relax and settle down, and the trick is to find out what is triggering the agi-

tation and confusion and trying to resolve the underlying discomfort.

At times it is just a matter of a little hunger that can easily be resolved with a snack before supper. Sometimes too much is going on around them and they need to be encouraged to retreat to a quieter setting where they can get reoriented. Pain can trigger Sundowner’s, as can dark shadows caught in an evening’s twilight.

U.S. researchers have suggested that the biological clocks of people with Sundowners have fallen off track, and at least part of the confusion is not knowing when to eat, sleep and have fun. access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none

Sclerotinia the hard way.

Sclerotinia is a costly disease f or canola growers.

Provincial disease surveys* indicate that 82% of prairie acres are affected by it.

Losses can easily top $30 per acre... almost $5000 per quarter section.

Your biological clock is that little part of you, ticking away throughout the day, that tells you when you should be tending to your basic needs. It regulates hunger, fatigue and boredom.

People can become confused when it is not working properly and aren’t sure when they can look forward to eating, sleeping and playing.

Researchers have attempted to restore the biological clock by flooding those with Sundowner’s with bright, fluorescent lights at the start of the day. The assumption is that the excess light will reinforce the natural daylight and kick off the biological clock early in the morning. The clock will then stay on track for the rest of the day.

It is an interesting proposition, but I would not advise trying it until you have had a chance to talk to your mother’s physician.

TEACHERS | RATIFICATION

New contract ratified by Sask. educators Wages contentious issue

Spraying to control sclerotinia is expensive and uncertain because it depends on critical timing.

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Or the easy way.

There’s a simple, certain and effective way to limit these losses.

Plant canola seed with the Pioneer Protector® Sclerotinia trait. It puts your first line of defense against this costly disease right into the seed, to protect your yield potential through to harvest.

Control sclerotinia the easy way: Pioneer Protector.

www.pioneer.com *Average number based on 88% affected in Manitoba, 92% in Saskatchewan and 64% in Alberta. Results from the Provincial Disease Surveys, 2010.

Field results show that Pioneer Protector ® Sclerotinia resistance can reduce the incidence of sclerotinia in a canola crop by over 50%. Individual results may vary. Depending on environmental and agronomic conditions, growers planting Pioneer Protector Sclerotinia resistant hybrids may still require a fungicide application to manage sclerotinia in their crop.

The contract that Saskatchewan teachers recently ratified will see general pay raises plus allowances for certain duties.

Teachers cast 12,637 ballots and voted 66 percent in favour of the three-year agreement, which is retroactive to Sept. 1, 2010.

Wages were a contentious issue during negotiations, and the dispute went to mediation. The mediator’s report formed the basis of the final agreement.

In the first year, teachers at the first step of the salary scale will earn a base of $40,277, while the highest paid will make $83,544. By year three, those salaries will rise to $42,929 and $88,347, respectively.

In the previous contract, the base salary for entry level teachers was $38,712 and the maximum was $80,957.

Principals, vice-principals and assistant principals will continue to get additional pay for their extra duties.

The agreement also includes enhancements to health benefits.

Teachers staged their first-ever walkouts last May during the collective bargaining process, and thousands rallied at the provincial legislature.

After returning to work, they withdrew voluntary services such as coaching sports teams, and there was some concern that final exams could be affected. However, that did not happen.

Teachers should receive their retroactive pay before Nov. 30, according to the contract posted on the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation website. access=subscriber section=farmliving,none,none
