U.S. report sparks acreage battle

Crop prices shoot higher | Rally could change seeding plans and cool market

Few details on how $310 million will be cut BY BARRY WILSON

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canola and spring wheat prices shot up in the wake of bullish U.S. seeding intentions and stocks reports but the bounce could be short-lived, according to a Canadian analyst. The grain trade was caught off guard by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s March 30 Prospective Plantings report. The forecast for 95.9 million acres of corn was above the highest prereport estimate in a Dow Jones Newswires poll of 20 grain industry analysts and the 73.9 million acres of soybeans was below the lowest estimate for that crop. The report instantly bolstered soybean and canola markets. Prices for the nearby May contract shot up 5.3 percent for soybeans and 4.1 percent for canola between the close of markets on March 29 and the opening on April 2. November soybeans and canola

were up 6.4 percent and 4.6 percent respectively over the same time. But growers shouldn’t put too much faith in the report because the survey of 84,500 U.S. farmers was conducted during the first two weeks of March missing the latest soybean rally in response to South America’s diminishing production prospects, said Marlene Boersch, managing partner with Mercantile Consulting Venture. She doesn’t buy that U.S. growers will plant 95.9 million acres of corn, the largest crop since 1937. “We think that number is too high, definitely too high,” said Boersch. “We just think it is a bit overdone on the corn and underdone on the soybeans.” She is forecasting 93 to 94 million acres of corn and up to 77 million acres of soybeans. If that happens soybean and canola prices will likely soften. “Right now we would consider hedging up to 35 percent of the

canola, partly because it covers the variable cost,” said Boersch. Bruce Burnett, the CWB’s director of weather and market analysis, said the fight over acres in the U.S. is far from over. “What the report on (March 30) did was really set the table here for some last minute acreage battle between soybeans and corn to duke it out for the remaining uncommitted acreage out there,” he said. He agreed with Boersch that soybeans will win that war due to stronger prices, but he believes the acreage changes will be marginal and there will still be more than enough corn supply for the 2012-13 marketing campaign. Chuck Penner, analyst with LeftField Commodity Research, said the U.S. report was welcome news for the stalled canola market, pushing old crop canola as high as $630 per tonne.

OTTAWA BUREAU

The federal Conservatives are looking at Agriculture Canada to shoulder a larger-than-average share of upcoming spending cuts, similar to what the Liberals did in their 1995 deficit-cutting budget. In his March 29 budget, finance minister Jim Flaherty said Agriculture Canada and its affiliated agencies will have to cut 10 percent from their spending — $310 million — within two years. Details are vague as yet, but cuts of that size could have a wide-ranging effect on government program spending and the number of civil servants available to deal with agricultural issues. Only public safety, national defence and international assistance are being told to take a larger dollar hit. BUDGET CUTS, PAGE 2

U.S. acreage battle “We kind of needed the soybean market to take off to get canola up to those levels because it was about at the maximum spread it could be relative to soybeans on the futures so for canola to go up further we needed the bean market to go up further,” he said. Boersch thinks there is still room for old crop canola prices to move up independent of soybeans. Canadian processing plants crushed an “outstanding” 190,000 tonnes of the crop last week and ships in Vancouver were loading and waiting to load another 400,000 tonnes of canola. “There’s still a little bit of legs into the India old crop canola market,” she said. Jonathon Driedger, market analyst with FarmLink Marketing Solutions, expects the report to have little impact on Canadian seeding intentions. “For a while already, the economics have been showing that growers should plant about as much canola as they’re comfortable growing,” he said. The report was also friendly for another major Canadian crop. The nearby May and the November contract for Minneapolis spring wheat increased 7.8 and 7.1 percent respectively between March 29 and April 2. U.S. growers intend to plant 11.98

million acres of spring wheat, which was below the lowest estimate of the 20 analysts surveyed by Dow Jones. “That will keep the spread between Minneapolis wheat and Kansas City or Chicago fairly wide. It should help keep protein premiums fairly high as well,” said Penner. Growers plan to seed 289,000 acres of flax, up 62 percent from 2011 but down 31 percent from 2010. That could creat a market for Canadian flax, but last year the U.S. imported some flax from the Black Sea region to meet its needs. Driedger said corn stocks were a little lighter than expected, which led to an 8.8 percent surge in old crop corn prices between March 29 and April 2, which has supported Canadian feedgrain prices. He thought the biggest surprise in the minor crops was the 30 percent increase in barley plantings from last year’s record low, which would still be the third smallest U.S. barley crop on record. “That’s something we have to keep in the back of our minds here,” said Driedger.

FEDERAL BUDGET | FROM PAGE ONE

Budget cuts at Agriculture Canada Agriculture is on par with Health Canada, although health has a much larger base budget. “This really does seem like a disproportionate hit on agriculture,” New Democratic Party agriculture critic Malcolm Allen said. “This can’t help but hurt farmers, either in program spending or the efficiency of getting farmer services out.” The government’s three-year plan to end the deficit includes a projection that 19,200 federal public service jobs will be lost. Agriculture Canada and Canadian Food Inspection Agency employees are expected to be a significant part of that number. In a March 30 news conference, agriculture minister Gerry Ritz said he was not ready to reveal how the department will meet its spending cut requirement. “Those details will be coming out in the days and weeks (ahead),” he said. “I can assure you that none of the changes affect food safety in any way.” Farm groups said it was difficult to react until they know how the planned cuts will affect farmers, whether through program spending cuts or staff reductions. “We really do have to take a waitand-see attitude until the details are known,” said Canadian Federation of Agriculture president Ron Bonnett. Grain Growers of Canada president Stephen Vandervalk said his members understand the need for government restraint in the face of multibillion-dollar deficits. “But it is important to remember that agriculture didn’t cause this deficit, and in fact we have been one of the consistent bright spots in the economy.” The impact on Agriculture Canada staffing could be known by the end of this week. The budget tabled in Parliament

also promised that current federalprovincial negotiations over a new five-year agriculture policy framework will lead to “a refocused suite of business risk management programs.” Ritz said the government is refocusing support programs “so that they can support farmers and processors for the long term.” One industry official speculated that it could signal a shift to more farmer insurance plans rather than open-ended government spending obligations. Ritz said the savings will come from consolidating delivery of grants and contributions in the department, amalgamating such services as information technology between Agriculture Canada and CFIA and creating a single CFIA office for permits, licenses and registrations. The budget also announced: • a two-year, $44 million contribution to the Canadian Grain Commission to cover deficits while the government changes legislation and regulation to allow more costrecovery. Ritz confirmed that the government wants to amend the Canada Grain Act amended and change CGC regulations by April 1, 2014 • a contribution of $51.2 million over two years for food safety work at the CFIA, Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada, although the agriculture budget cuts include $56 million in CFIA spending reductions over three years • continued emphasis on trade liberalization deals for agriculture • a renewal of a pledge to increase high-speed internet service in rural Canada • the launch of a program, announced last year, that will forgive a portion of student loans for health-care professionals willing to practice in rural Canada.

FEDERAL BUDGET | FARM REACTION

Budget vagaries see farm groups struggling to discern future $310 million cut | Agriculture Canada faced with 10 percent spending cut, but details sparse STORIES BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

The problem for farm leaders asked to analyze the agriculture sector impact of the March 29 federal budget is that they didn’t really know. The budget announced a 10 percent, $310 million cut in the Agriculture Canada budget by 2014-15, one of the largest in government, but details about where the savings will come are vague. Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz told reporters March 30 that the details will come later. Canadian Federation of Agriculture president Ron Bonnett noted in an interview that the 10 percent cut at Agriculture Canada and its related agencies was at the high end of departmental cuts. “If these budget measures increase efficiency in program and service delivery, then we support them,” he said. “If the cuts result in hampering the success of farmers’ businesses and rural communities, then this will be an area of concern. At this point, it

is difficult to really say.” At Grain Growers of Canada, executive director Richard Phillips said while the cuts look large “we’re reserving judgment till we have more details about programs that will be cut.” He even found reason to be optimistic that within the budget, there may actually be more money for agricultural research. “We’ll have to wait and see.” For New Democratic Party agriculture critic Malcolm Allen, it is clear the budget cuts are bad news. “I don’t know how this can be good for farmers, a 10 percent cut,” he said April 2.

“Even if it is mainly in the bureaucracy, in the so-called back rooms, those are the folks who process farm claims and deliver the benefits.” The budget projects cuts of $56 million for the Canadian Food Inspection Agency over three years but then announces $51.2 million in additional food safety funding over two years to CFIA, Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada. “I see that as a cut in CFIA and that is not good,” said Allen. Farm organization representatives praised the government emphasis on expanding trade opportunities in the future, on committing $44 mil-

lion to the Canadian Grain Commission over two years while it decides how to receive more of its revenue from fee-for-service charges and the promise to reduce the regulatory burden through more co-operation with the United States. Several Grain Growers prairie members praised the budget for referencing the move to an open wheat and barley market on Aug. 1, 2012 as part of the government’s business strategy. A n d G G C p re s i d e nt St e p h e n Vandervalk said in an organization statement that while farmers understand the need for government spending restraint, politicians must keep some perspective on agriculture’s place in the economy. “We appreciate money is tight federally but it is important to remember that agriculture didn’t cause this deficit and in fact we have been one of the consistent bright spots in the economy,” he said. Agriculture and food create more than two million jobs in Canada and with tens of billions of dollars in exports, contribute significantly to the country’s balance of payments.

A brief reference in last week’s federal budget about plans to refocus farm business risk management programs has farm leaders speculating about what Ottawa has in mind. They are also are raising increasing doubts about whether a scheduled April 1, 2013, launch of the new Growing Forward five-year plan, with its refocused farm programs, really can be accomplished by the scheduled date. Implementation of the first Growing Forward programs was delayed a year until 2009 because all the details had not been worked out by the scheduled implementation date. Ontario Federation of Agriculture president Mark Wales was one of last week’s skeptics. “I think it will be pretty tough to meet the deadline,” he said. “There was not a lot of forward movement last year with so many elections federal and provincial and some new ministers.” A federal-provincial ministerial meeting planned for March 29 was cancelled because of the federal budget. It is to be rescheduled during the week of April 16. Ministers are supposed to sign the final deal at a mid-September meeting in Whitehorse to give bureaucrats six months to write the program details by April 1, 2013. Wales said final consultations with Ontario farmers are not scheduled until June. “Just looking at that, it’s going to be very difficult to have a signed agreement by September, and if it’s not signed in September, then all of the other paperwork to be ready by April 1 really can’t happen,” he said. He said a delay would be better than “not getting the details right.” Canadian Federation of Agriculture president Ron Bonnett said governments “are really pushing up against the wire to get this done on time.” Grain Growers of Canada executive director Richard Phillips said he doubts a final political agreement can be signed before the end of the year, but for the moment he will trust official promises that the new fiveyear plan will be ready April 1. “I’ll say they are promising to get things done by April,” he said. “For now, I’ll be optimistic that this is a realistic deadline.” Meanwhile, the March 29 federal budget referred to negotiations for the next five-year farm program policy, arguing that the Conservative government intends to “see a focus on setting the right conditions for farmers and businesses in the agriculture and agri-food sector to compete and adapt.” The Growing Forward federal-provincial agreement will be part of that. “The new five-year framework agreement will set out policies and programs to support a modern, innovative and market-oriented sector,” said the budget. Does that signal a shift from farm income support programs to regulatory reform and market opportunities that tell farmers they should be able to make it in the market without much help?

COMMUNITY PASTURES | FEDERAL BUDGET CUTS

Provinces await word on 85 federal pastures Control may revert to provinces | Provinces could opt to sell the land, which has some worried about environmental issues STORIES BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

The future of the federal community pasture system remains unclear following last week’s budget. Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz floated the idea of unloading agrienvironment services branch pastures in discussions with cattle organizations and provinces several months ago. And although his department took the largest budget hit on a percentage basis compared to other federal departments, Ritz wouldn’t say if the pastures are among the cuts. “We’re looking for savings, we’re looking for efficiencies across the departments,” he said in a conference call with reporters March 30. “Nothing is sacred but we’ll continue to work with the affected people in the coming days and weeks.” About100 full-time and 200 seasonal employees would be affected. T h e p rov i n c e s t o o c o u l d s e e changes. Saskatchewan especially, which is home to 60 of the 85 federal pastures, could see itself custodian of more than 1.3 million acres, due to a reversionary clause in the agreement that gave Ottawa control over the pastures. “If Canada decides to not operate community pastures on them anymore then that land is supposed to fall back to the province,” said Wally Hoehn, acting director of the province’s lands branch. The province also leases about 469,000 acres to the federal government for its pastures. Other land would revert to Environment Canada or National Defence. In Manitoba, the province or municipalities own 99 percent of the 24 pastures. The 2.2 million acre pasture system was established under the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration by legislation in 1937. About 2,500 producers now graze 220,000 head of livestock on the pastures. Saskatchewan agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud said he hadn’t heard definite plans from Ritz about the future of the pastures. But if the land reverts, it would nearly double the province’s workload. The province has 52 community pastures of its own.

Cattle producers who use federal community pastures might be able to buy the land if it reverts to provincial control and is put up for sale. |

BOB BJORNERUD SASKATCHEWAN AGRICULTURE MINISTER

“I’d be in panic mode,” laughed Hoehn. On the other hand, the province has an administration set up to deal with pastures. Bjornerud said Saskatchewan could operate the pastures or sell them. He suggested that producers who now use certain pastures might want to get together to buy them. Harold Martens, president of the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association, said that might be possible

but only if there are financial tools available to help. A venture capital corporation, for example, could lend money over 10 years to producers. Rural municipalities might also consider buying the pastures. Martens noted that the Rural Municipality of Excelsior, where he is reeve, owns a couple of small pastures on which patrons run about 400 head each grazing season. He said the issue is more the number of patrons affected than the number of cattle. Many pasture users have small land bases of their own and rely on the community pastures. Lynn Grant, a rancher from Val Marie, Sask., and a Canadian Cattlemen’s Association director, said pro-

Pasture sales not common “They were being underutilized,” he said of the two pastures in the northern farm belt. “They weren’t full and those numbers seemed to be dropping off.” Typically, pasture patrons become regular, permanent users but that wasn’t the case in these two, he said. Wally Hoehn, acting director of lands branch, said the few patrons who were using the two pastures have been accommodated at others nearby. The claim on the Pontrilas pasture is in limbo until January 2013. Until that time patrons are able to use it.

ducers might have to look at something like the Waldron Grazing Coop in Alberta. The co-op formed in the 1950s when about 50 sections of land were up for sale and no individual could come up with the money to buy it. “As many as 100 cattle producers in and around the area pooled together to buy it and have since run it.” Grant is concerned about the environmental benefits the pastures provide and what would happen if the land is sold. The pastures represent some of the largest contiguous blocks of native prairie left in the world and are home to more than 20 species at risk. Environment Canada has designated, or is in the process of designat-

ing, about 14 percent of the federal pasture land in southern Saskatchewan as critical wildlife habitat for swift fox, hairy prairie clover, piping plover and black-footed ferret. Burrowing owl, Sprague’s pipit and sage grouse are also likely to be added to the list. A 2006 study found the benefit of the community pasture system to the direct users, or patrons, was $21 million. The benefit to the public, from the pastures’ conservation management, was $37 million. The study was done by Pearson and Associates Agri-Consulting Inc. of Saskatoon. An economic model was used to apply a value to the benefits and costs of the pastures to public and private users.

WHO OWNS WHAT? HOW FEDERAL PASTURES ARE ALLOCATED Agriculture Canada’s agri-environment services branch operates 85 community pastures on the Prairies. If the federal government chooses not to operate them, most will revert to the provinces or municipalities. (in acres except number of pastures)

PROVINCIAL PASTURE | SALE

The sale last year of a provincial community pasture is not a sign of things to come, said agriculture minister Bob Bjornerud. Last summer, the province sold the 7,000 acre Paddockwood pasture, north of Prince Albert, and put up the Pontrilas pasture, northwest of Tisdale, for sale. The Pontrilas pasture is the subject of a treaty land entitlement claim. Bjornerud said there are no plans to sell others. The province owns and operates 52 pastures under the Saskatchewan Pastures Program, which has been operating since 1922.

ELECTION | ALBERTA

Alberta Conservatives face biggest test in decades Campaign trail | Land-use planning, environmental care, power lines and MLA pay become issues for April 23 vote He said the policy to encourage more young farmers is fine, but the province should have been more vocal about the Viterra grain company takeover by Glencore International, which affects farmers across the West. “If a minister of agriculture wants to be concerned about young farmers, he needs to realize that agriculture has now entered a phase from where we used to be more concerned about safety nets, we were concerned about trade and opening markets,” he said. “Agriculture has entered a more significant new phase and that is about strategic positioning. I haven’t heard this government speak about that, in contrast to Saskatchewan.” Meyer sees the Viterra takeover as the loss of a capable, competitive grain buyer and input supplier in favour of a multi-national company that does not have specific interests in local farmers. Rancher John Bland of Strathmore said he doesn’t trust the government on a series of issues. He wants more consultation with the public and property owners when it wants to implement land-use planning decisions or erect major transmission lines. However, ethics among politicians concerns him more. He questioned why the Conservative caucus in 2008 approved a more than 30 percent salary increase, higher payments for committee work and rich severance packages for departing members based on their years of service. “I said at the time that is just a conduit to get more money into the hands of MLAs. I think I was proven right,” Bland said. For example, upon their retirement after this election, former premier Ed Stelmach will receive $991,000 and speaker of the house Ken Kowalski will get $1.1 million, according to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. Former agriculture minister George Groeneveld gets $312,000. Added to the controversy are payments to MLAs to serve on a commit-

The winds of conservatism may be shifting in Alberta. Controversies over land-use planning, environmental care, power l i n e s a n d t h e s i z e o f M L A p ay cheques have become universal issues for rural and urban voters in the April 23 election campaign. Change is afoot and daily polls indicate the Wildrose Alliance Party led by Danielle Smith is in a dead heat against the reigning 41-year-old Progressive Conservative government led by premier Alison Redford. “There is only one real poll, but it is looking like there may be some change,” said rancher Phil Rowland of High River. Added farmer Leo Meyer of Woking: “In my view, there is going to be a shift toward the Wildrose. It is different from just a few years ago.” The previous government created the Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency and passed a law that made all commodity group checkoffs refundable by request. Those policies were welcomed by groups such as the Western Stock Growers Association, of which Rowland is president, but bills governing land use and electrical transmission lines may outweigh those benefits. “These land bills seem to be trumping everything,” Rowland said. Anyone who owns property is affected, he added. “These are universal laws that are all encompassing across the landscape.” Meyer said agriculture isn’t dominating this campaign. “There are a handful of significant issues which are overarching, certainly not one sector specific. Agriculture does not have the centre stage this time,” he said. He said the government, including the agriculture department, is further removed from farmers than in the past. “They are somewhat single-minded at the moment.”

The Wildrose party has been the only one to specifically announce a rural platform. A six point package announced before the election promised that if elected, the party would repeal all the land-use bills and halt or reverse activities started under these laws. “We believe landowners have been asking loud and clearly for these laws to be repealed,” said Smith. The party also said it would elevate the status of property rights and work with the federal government to enshrine it in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. As well, it says it would streamline agricultural regulations while maintaining food safety requirements, and has promised to work with the federal government for safety net reform and the development of farm income trusts. This would include

ALBERTA ELECTION | RURAL SUPPORT

Wildrose expected to triumph in Calgary, southern Alberta Campaign’s final weeks | Conservatives rely on rural voters, although two-thirds of province lives in Calgary and Edmonton The traditional strength of rural support for the Alberta Progressive Conservative party may be waning as the province heads to the polls April 23. “There are a lot of interesting dynamics in this election that we haven’t seen in a very, very long time in this province,” said political analyst Duane Bratt of Mount Royal University. The interest in this election is attributed to the historic battle between two women fighting for the premier’s job. Alison Redford is the province’s first female premier and is being challenged by Danielle Smith, leader of the Wildrose Alliance Party, which formed in 2009 as a right wing protest. “If Wildrose had chosen a different

leader other than Danielle Smith, it would be totally different. Alison Redford has really helped the PCs. Ed Stelmach would have been a disaster. He would have been wiped right off,” Bratt said. “Redford represents some kind of difference, but whether that is enough, we will have to see.” The reigning PCs have depended heavily on rural support, even though two-thirds of the population lives in Calgary and Edmonton. Bratt predicted Edmonton will go PC while Wildrose should triumph in Calgary and southern Alberta. There could also be pockets of Wildrose strength in northeastern Alberta and the Peace River district, he added. “If Calgary goes Wildrose and

ALBERTA-STYLE POLITICS Four political parties have ruled Alberta in succession since it became a province in 1905, with each serving long tenures in office. The official opposition has never formed the new government. 1905-1921 — Liberals 1921-1935 — United Farmers of Alberta 1935-1971 — Social Credit 1971-present — Progressive Conservative

Edmonton goes PC, who breaks the tie? So even if their seat total is not

what it once was, so if the cities split, who carries the tie breakers?” The New Democrat support is at 10 percent and concentrated in a handful of Edmonton ridings. It will likely retain its current two seats, but the Liberal party could be wiped out. Its support is also at 10 percent. “Both of those parties are nonexistent outside the cities,” Bratt said. “They even have difficulty finding candidates to run. Usually it is the same person running year after year.” Rural voters often have an emotional attachment to their incumbents because more people know them personally, which is less common in urban ridings. “When you have an incumbent

Tory, that is going to be toughest to beat,” he said. “They have such ties to the community, but in an open seat … that gives an opportunity because they don’t have that personal loyalty to the individual.” The province’s 87 constituencies are split almost equally between rural and urban voters, but many of those living in the country are not necessarily associated with agriculture anymore. There are more rural residential voters, and a large component is connected to the energy industry. “We still have a disproportionate number of rural seats compared to population, but it is not as bad as it once was,” Bratt said.

First Canadian alfalfa shipment heads to China

Barley rebounds in forecast Argentina, EU seeding up | Canadian acreage could climb by 22 percent, U.S. by 30 percent

BY MARY MACARTHUR BY SEAN PRATT

CAMROSE BUREAU

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

OLDS, Alta. — Twenty containers of alfalfa from southern Alberta arrived in China last month, the first commercial shipment of Canadian alfalfa to the Asian country. Another 40 containers have been ordered. “We are extremely excited by this new marketing opportunity between Canada and China,” said Green Prairie International president John Van Hierden, who shipped the hay. China has 12.6 million dairy cows that produce more than 35 million tonnes of milk a year, making it the largest dairy producer in the world. It hopes to double its milk production by 2015 with more cows, better nutrition, farm size and expertise. An easy way to raise production is better feed, said Marc Lavoie, a northern Alberta dairy farmer and forage producer who travelled to China recently with a Canadian Forages and Grasslands Association delegation. China is looking for quality forages, but is also searching for bargain prices, Lavoie told members of the Alberta Forage Industry Network. “The reality is that most of the farmers are small with very little knowledge and are feeding cows whatever they can find.” The average herd size is five to 10 cows. Sheep grass and inexpensive supplements are the main feed for dairy cattle. Lavoie said the feed was overmature and of poor quality. At $160 per tonne, the grass is fairly expensive because of the distance to transport from northern China. Canadian hay prices are more than double, and Lavoie said Chinese officials are hoping to create competition and lower the price of imported hay by opening up markets. “The common theme is cheap. They’re looking for low price product at best quality.” China requires inspection of alfalfa fields for verticilium wilt before and after cutting. “It’s a big headache for us,” Lavoie said. “Not all companies are looking at exporting to China because of extra expense and headache.”

The world’s farmers will plant more barley this year, according to a number of reports. “Part of this is due to happenstance,” said Bruce Burnett, the CWB’s director of weather and market analysis. Farmers in the European Union and Ukraine will likely use spring barley to replace their frost-damaged winter wheat crops. Some estimates call for a 10 percent increase in spring barley acreage in the EU. “If you’re trying to stick to a cereal in the rotation, barley fits in there nicely,” said Burnett. Government policies are also playing a role in what the International Grains Council expects to be an eight percent increase in world barley plantings from last year. The U.S. agricultural attaché in Argentina forecasts a 50 percent increase in that country’s barley acreage to 3.7 million acres as growers react to the government’s intervention in wheat marketing. Argentina reserves seven million tonnes of wheat annually to keep the domestic market well supplied. Growers feel wheat prices are heavily discounted by the policy because of a lack of competition between local flour mills and exporters. Producers are “disoriented and discouraged” and have opted for barley, which allows them to plant a second crop, usually soybeans, about two weeks earlier than if they had grown wheat. North American producers also plan to grow a lot more barley than last year. In its March 30 Prospective Plantings report, the USDA forecasted 3.3 million acres of the crop, a 30 percent increase from 2011 and a 16 percent hike from 2010. Agriculture Canada forecasts 7.9 million acres in Canada, up 22 percent from last year and 14 percent from 2010. Burnett said world barley acreage could be up by as much as 10 percent, but he doesn’t think that

Agriculture Canada forecasts 7.9 million acres of barley will be planted in Canada this year, up 22 percent from 2011. | FILE PHOTO will result in a burdensome supply because there has been a decadelong downward trend in global barley acres. “Now we’re sort of levelling that off and coming back up a little bit,” he said. “It just normalizes the production a little bit.” He expects feed barley prices to

follow corn prices for the most part, and right now corn futures indicate new crop will be about $1 per bushel lower than old crop. Production is only part of the picture on the malting barley side. Prices will be heavily influenced by the quality of the crop, which is yet to be determined, said Burnett.

CWB hopes new pools, contracts attract good market share Contract flexibility | CWB only marketer so far to offer pooling option to producers BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that growers intend to seed 1.7 million acres of beans, 619,000 acres of peas, 518,000 acres of lentils and 184,000 acres of chickpeas this year. | FILE PHOTO PULSES | OUTLOOK

U.S. pulse acreage returns to pre-flooding levels Demand outlook improves with smaller crops in Turkey and India BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

U.S. farmers intend to plant a lot more pulses in 2012 than they did last year, but the acreage increases are deceiving. The numbers are skewed because growers in North Dakota, which is by far the biggest pulse growing state, were unable to seed their peas, lentils and beans last year because of excessive spring moisture. “If they had grown what they intended last year, we would be talking about an acreage decline in lentils and perhaps even in peas,” said Brian Clancey, editor of the Stat Publishing markets newsletter. The U.S. Department of Agriculture said in its March 30 Prospective Plantings report that growers intend to seed 1.7 million acres of beans, 619,000 acres of peas, 518,000 acres of lentils and 184,000 acres of chickpeas. Total planned pulse acreage is up 40 percent from last year, but upon closer inspection, the acreage for all pulses except chickpeas will be lower than 2010. The bean number is 38 percent higher than 2011 plantings but well below the 1.9 million acres seeded in 2010. “I was thinking (beans) might have gone up a little bit more than that because really, beans have performed extremely well. They’re one of the better crops in ter ms of income,” said Clancey. However, beans face stiff competition from corn, soybeans and wheat, which are easier crops to produce, harvest and market. Pea plantings are expected to be up 71 percent, but Clancey said 2004 was the last time growers planted fewer than 750,000 acres of the crop.

BRIAN CLANCEY STAT PUBLISHING EDITOR

“Yeah, acreage is up a lot in the United States, but this is not a big crop coming,” he said. North American pea stocks are “effectively sold out” and it appears they will remain tight in 2012-13. Lentil plantings are expected to jump 21 percent, moving in the opposite direction of Canadian acreage, which Agriculture Canada expects to fall by 13 percent. “The U.S. government has been a fairly good buyer of lentils for food aid, so you have that extra market dimension there that exists in the United States,” said Clancey. Chickpea acreage is expected to rise 38 percent from 2011 and 26 percent from 2010. Clancey said that will make markets happy, but the biggest increase is for small chickpeas, which is a bit of a surprise because the market is in need of large caliber kabulis. Murad Al-Katib, president of Alliance Grain Traders Inc. (AGT), said the demand outlook is improving for pulses. Exports have been constrained of late, primarily by a lack of available credit in key consuming regions. Currency devaluation and political unrest in the Middle East and North Africa haven’t helped matters. However, he sees a brighter future. “The market must come back to normalized purchasing soon. They

cannot hold off indefinitely,” Al-Katib told reporters and analysts during a conference call announcing the company’s fourth quarter financial results for 2011. Turkish red lentil and chickpea production has been declining the past few years and is expected to fall again in 2012. Lentil output is forecast at 400,000 tonnes and chickpea production at 450,000 tonnes, the lowest level since 2007. India’s pulse production is estimated at five percent below the re c o rd 2 0 1 1 h a r v e s t , b u t A G T believes the government forecast is overly optimistic. Market intelligence gathered by AGT indicates demand for pulses in neighbour ing Bangladesh, Sr i Lanka and Pakistan will increase in 2012 because of depleted local ma rke t st o ck s t hat n e e d t o b e replenished. “AGT management is optimistic that the positive demand fundamentals for pulse imports to Indian Subcontinent markets may materialize in the second half of 2012,” the company said in a document accompanying its fourth quarter results. However, AGT warned of increased competition from Russia and Ukraine. Russia’s pulse production was up significantly in 2011, and the USDA expects a further increase in 2012. Legumex Walker Inc., another major Canadian pulse processor, issued a similar warning while announcing its fourth quarter results. “We believe there are structural changes at work. We’re seeing increased competition from processors in emerging pulse producing countries such as the Ukraine, Argentina and China,” said company president Joel Horn.

The CWB is confident it will garner a larger share of wheat sales under the open market than its counterpart in Australia. CWB president Ian White said the AWB, the former Australian Wheat Board, has typically handled 20 to 30 percent of Australia’s wheat crop since it lost its single desk powers in 2008. AWB is now owned by Cargill. “We expect probably that we would get a larger market share than that,” he said. “We think in Canada the CWB pool will be much better supported than the AWB pool.” Being the only pooling option in the newly created open market will work in its favour, he added. The company recently completed 22 meetings with prairie farmers, at which many growers expressed uncertainty over how wheat marketing will work after Aug. 1. “We get a sense that farmers are very interested in the CWB contracts, particularly the CWB pooling contracts, because this will take away a lot of the uncertainty,” White said. “They’re products that they generally know.” Wade Sobkowich, executive director of the Western Grain Elevator Association, hopes the CWB markets more than one-quarter of the 2012 wheat crop. “That (would be) good news. It would show that the wheat board can function in an open market,” he said. “These tonnes will still be moved through the grain handling facilities, which is at the end of the day what we’re after. The name of the game for us is turnover.” Sobkowich said the board’s market share could feasibly exceed 25 percent if farmers view its programs in a positive light. Last week, the C WB officially unveiled its pooling and cash contracts. It is offering growers a harvest and early delivery pool, a deferred delivery contract, a futures-first contract, a basis-first contract and a malting barley production contract. “Our pools will ensure that farmers are never forced to settle for the bottom of the market or chase an elusive market high,” White told reporters during a conference call. He said the pools allow producers to participate in market rallies that take place after their contracts are signed. The cash contracts offer features that can’t be found elsewhere, he added: multiple delivery options, more wheat reference grades and the backing of the federal government. Chief operating officer Ward Weisensel said another unique contract feature is the ability to sign pool and futures-first contracts and then choose a delivery point at a later date. “Some farmers may even want to

deliver some grain to one company and some to another,” he said. “This will hopefully give them some negotiating power and flexibility.” Prices for the cash programs are on the CWB’s website and will change throughout the day as market values fluctuate. The CWB also intends on providing growers with a product similar to the existing Pool Return Outlooks. The company has negotiated handling agreements with Cargill and South West Terminal near Gull Lake, Sask. Discussions are ongoing with other grain companies operating in Western Canada. “We do expect to have that ability for (growers) to deliver everywhere,” White said. “There is nothing that I know at this point in time that would give me any contrary view.” The CWB is content to use the handling assets of competing grain companies rather than buying its own infrastructure, but it may venture beyond its traditional crop mix in 2012-13. “You could anticipate that we’ll be looking at whether we should be involved in canola and whether we should be involved in peas,” said White.

PRODUCTION OUTLOOK | TIGHT SUPPLY

USDA report confirms need for big crops and good weather MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE MCMILLAN

here is still room for acreage adjustments away from what American farmers told the U.S. Department of Agriculture in early March. But no matter what farmers wind up planting, the grain market was put

on a higher price plane thanks to the March 1 stocks report that showed less corn, soybeans and wheat in the U.S. than expected. Old crop prices rallied since the report, and that will help ration demand, but stocks at the end of the crop year will likely be smaller than forecast just a month ago. That puts more pressure on getting big crops this summer. Prices for just about every crop need to remain high to encourage seeding and ration demand, at least until we get a better idea about summer weather and yield prospects. As always, it is hard to forecast weather months in advance. We

THE KANSAS WHEAT CROP IS 60% GOOD TO EXCELLENT, COMPARED TO 31 % LAST YEAR know that the La Nina has ended and that Pacific Ocean temperatures are now at a neutral point, but some indicators show we might move straight into an El Nino. El Nino summers tend to be dry on the Canadian Prairies, the northwestern U.S. corn belt and the southern Plains with near normal precipitation in the eastern corn belt.

The only thing clear right now about the weather is that it is unusually warm in North America and for now that is good for production prospects. U.S. hard red winter wheat development is surging. Moisture over the winter made up for the dry conditions when the crop was seeded last fall. With the precipitation and warm weather the condition of the wheat crop in Kansas, the largest producing state, as of April 1 improved to eight percent poor to very poor, 32 percent fair and 60 percent good to excellent. Last year at the same time the con-

dition was considerably worse at 34 percent poor to very poor, 35 percent fair and 31 percent good to excellent. About 61 percent is jointed, more than three weeks ahead of the fiveyear average of 21 percent. The rapid development could be good for production but it also creates a risk for damage if there is a spring frost. With the warm weather, U.S. farmers in the Midwest got off to their fastest start ever with five percent of the crop planted by April 1, according to a Reuters poll, and if accurate would provide more evidence that producers do not intend to shift acres to soybeans, despite soy’s high prices.

Buyers looking for animals to graze grass have shown interest in procuring steers and heifers in the 800 pound range. Investing in heavier feeders for grass could give producers more flexibility to manage their grass this summer, and perhaps allow two turns on grass. Lack of moisture reserves remains a concern. Auction volumes totalled 26,804, down 13 percent from the previous week. With a smaller U.S. calf crop, demand for Canadian feeders is strong. Feeder exports to March 17 totalled 6,833, up 14 percent. With the calving season gearing up, it could promote selling to free up pen space and labour. Volatility in corn futures will keep U.S. buyers on their toes but at times c o u l d f u r t h e r p ro m o t e f e e d e r exports.

BEEF SLIMED

CANFAX REPORT FEED CATTLE LOWER Fed cattle and beef prices fell last week on worries that publicity about finely textured beef, dubbed pink slime, would hurt beef demand. The Canfax fed steer average was $114.83 per hundredweight, down $1.71, and heifers were $115.36, down 83 cents. Feedlots initially resisted selling, but some trade developed midweek at prices $3-$4 per cwt. lower than the previous week. Late in the week, feedlots sold to American buyers at better prices that were only 50 cents to $2 lower than the previous week. Some cattle did not sell and were carried over into this week. The volume traded was 11,875 head, down 17 percent from the week before. Weekly fed cattle exports to March 17 rose three percent to 11,434 head. Weekly western Canadian fed cattle slaughter to March 24 totalled 36,857 head, up 17 percent from the previous week. So far this year, western fed slaughter is up one percent.

The average steer price fell $2.78 per cwt.

Beef demand should improve as April progresses and feedlot supplies are expected to moderate. In the short term however, packers have good supply, their processing margins are slim and beef demand is sluggish.

COW PRICES DOWN For the first time this year non-fed values were below year-ago levels. D1, 2 cows ranged $71-$83 to average $76.43. D3 cows ranged $60-$75 to average 69.25. Rail grade was $145-$150. We e k l y n o n - f e d e x p o r t s t o March 17 totalled 3,640, up 18 percent from the previous week. Resistance to higher prices in the

United States will likely keep a cap on Canadian prices. Non-fed offerings at commercial auctions should start to slow.

FEEDER PRICES FALL Slow lift time on fed cattle dulled demand for bunk replacements. The average steer price fell $2.78 per cwt. while heifers dropped $2.21. Increasing cost of gain and cattle market price risk has changed market dynamics.

U.S. cut-out values fell $4.50-$5.50 as the market worried about consumer reaction to the “pink slime” controversy. Choice cutout fell to $183.46 US per cwt. and Select fell to $183.12. The weak cutouts will pressure fed cattle prices. Weekly Canadian cutouts to March 23 were mixed. Montreal wholesale for delivery this week was anticipated $1 lower as $212-$214 Cdn per cwt.

WP LIVESTOCK REPORT HOGS LOWER

SHEEP AND LAMBS

U.S. packers’ freezers are filling up with pork, and the warm spring is leading to heavier carcass weights. Iowa-southern Minnesota live hogs fell to $61.50 US per hundredweight March 30, down from $63 March 23. The U.S. pork carcass cut-out value edged up to $79.97 March 30, up from $79.67 March 23. The U.S. federal weekly slaughter estimate was 2.11 million, down from 2.13 million the previous week. The U.S. Department of Agriculture said the U.S. hog herd as of March 1 was up two percent from a year ago, at 64.872 million head. Much of the increase was due to more baby pigs surviving. Litter size for the December through February period was 9.97 pigs, up two percent. The U.S. breeding herd rose about one percent to 5.82 million head. Market hogs supply was up about two percent at 59.052 million head.

Beaver Hill Auction in Tofield, Alta., reported 795 sheep and 141 goats sold March 26. Wool lambs lighter than 70 lb. were $229-$259 per cwt., 70-85 lb. were $220-$248, 86-105 lb. were $190$221 and 106 lb. and heavier were $160-$184. Wool rams were $66-$100 per cwt. Cull ewes were $59-$84 and bred ewes were $250-$360 per head. Hair lambs lighter than 70 lb. were $225-$246 per cwt., 70-85 lb. were $208-$226, 86-105 lb. were $190$216 and 106 lb. and heavier were $160-$178. Hair rams were $80-$100 per cwt. Cull ewes were $75-$95. Good kid goats lighter than 50 lb. were $215-$260. Those heavier than 50 lb. were $220-$287 per cwt. Nannies were $60-$90 per cwt. Billies were $122.50-$147.50. Ontario Stockyards Inc. reported 1,868 sheep and lambs and 211 goats traded March 26. Well-fed lambs sold steady, all other types were barely steady. Sheep traded $7-$10 cwt. lower. Well-finished goats sold in premium ranges. All others were barely steady.

BISON STEADY The Canadian Bison Association said prices were steady with the previous week.

BUDGET | AGRICULTURE

CRAIG’S VIEW

Warning bells sounded following federal budget

t was too much to expect that agriculture would be excluded from federal attempts to deliver a balanced budget in three years. Even though Canada’s deficit of $24.9 billion seems small compared to other western developed nations, it must be dealt with for our long-term economic well-being. In the federal budget announced last week, agriculture was tasked with spending $310 million less in two years than it does now as its part in an attempt to cut $5.2 billion annually in three years. The finer details of how the cuts would be applied are not yet available, but we hope that key cornerstones of agriculture escape the more drastic measures. The government maintained that the cuts would come mostly from what it termed back office administrative savings and that farmers and processors would continue to receive the same programs. It’s tough to disagree with finding administrative efficiencies, but accomplishing it while also ensuring program delivery isn’t delayed is a fine balancing act. Amalgamating certain services between the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Agriculture Canada has great potential to eliminate duplication and speed up services, but only in the final details will it become known whether the cuts affect food safety, for example. Research is another key agriculture cornerstone that deserves special consideration. The budget said only that Ottawa would change tax credit incentives to more direct grants. It appears to be a case of money being shifted around, rather than a cut. However, it does leave open the possibility of government being able to pick winners and losers based on a particular agenda. Agriculture research today runs at funding levels below those of the 1990s. Trim-

ming that more is counterproductive. Most economic analyses show the economy as a whole gains far more than the cost of the research and that its effects reach to many areas of the economy, from farm productivity to the food industry to consumers. Another budget initiative to watch is a plan to eliminate 19,200 civil service jobs, which raises questions about future research. Agriculture Canada has pointe d o u t i n t h e p a s t t hat ma n y researchers are nearing retirem e nt a g e a n d a p l a n t o replace them is required. Will that run contrary to the government plan to reduce its workforce through attrition? The country cannot afford to lose key research positions. Hiring bright young people to carry on the work of retiring researchers would be money well spent. The Conservatives also revealed a plan to provide the Canadian Grain Commission with $44 million over two years to help shore up its operating deficits until a proper efficiency review can be carried out. If efficiencies can be found that save farmers’ money, it makes far more sense than earlier discussions about passing the entire amount of the agency’s shortfall onto farmers in the way of higher service fees. Worthy of praise are the government’s continued emphasis on international trade as are its initiatives to attract healthcare workers and doctors to rural areas and its continued work to deliver broadband internet service to the countryside. Agriculture could have fared worse in the budget, given the present climate for deficit reduction. Still, there are red flags marking what could develop into problems for agriculture down the road.

FEDERAL BUDGET | GOOD OFFSETS BAD NEWS

Good times in agriculture make Ag Canada budget cutting easier to swallow NATIONAL VIEW

BARRY WILSON

griculture minister Gerry Ritz, celebrating five years in the portfolio later this summer, has become the purveyor of good news. His department recently produced an overview document for the agrifood sector in 2012 that was largely a recitation of growth, income records and good prospects. At a March 30 news conference

about the previous day’s federal budget that ordered $310 million in Agriculture Canada spending cuts, Ritz had few details on how the cuts will play out, but he sure wanted to convey the health of the industry. “In 2011, farmers earned more money from the global marketplace than ever before, over $44 billion in agr iculture, food and seafood exports, up almost 13 percent from the previous year,” he said. Growing world populations mean the boom in commodity prices and sales will continue, he predicted. “Our value-added trade exceeded $22 billion, a new record, ensuring we’ll keep more jobs and growth right here at home.” So the dark days of animal illness, BSE, closed markets and low profits or losses are in the rear-view mirror.

“Today producers and processors will tell you that they are beginning to see stronger, more stable pricing, increased market access and opportunities for investment and a brighter future ahead.” Whew. What a great time to be agriculture minister. What a great time to have to sell budget-cutting that inevitably will affect services to farmers but that farmers might not really notice. What an opportunity to be negotiating a five-year agriculture policy framework with the provinces at a time when farmers don’t really see much of a need for support programs. What a perfect time to slip into the budget eight unexpected words about the next Growing Forward agreement scheduled to take effect

April 1, 2013. It will include “a refocused suite of business risk management programs,” said the budget documents. With Ritz’s comment about reforming them so they are there for the “long term,” more than a few farm sector observers saw it as code for a “refocus” that turns more onus for income or disaster protection over to farmers through insurance policies and less onto governments. Ontario Federation of Agriculture president Mark Wales says he worries that in good times, farmers will be too busy celebrating their profits to notice a weakening of the farm safety net needed when the inevitable downturn comes. “Right now, reports say the industry future looks bright, but we need to be prepared for when things happen

because they happen in a hurry,” he said last week. “We will remind them (governments) that these programs are needed.” Still, farmers often dream when markets or incomes turn north, the winds blowing them south won’t return soon. In the mid-1990s, the opposition often used black humour to explain the Liberal ability to get away with killing the Crow Benefit without a prairie uprising. Record high grain prices the year after the 1995 announcement helped divert farmer attention. “This proves God is a Liberal,” more than one MP at the time said. Is it possible that if governments use this boom time to reduce longterm benefits, opposition MPs someday will gripe: “This proves God has changed her colour to Tory blue?”

Rare Mercedes sells for price of used car

My two cents on eliminating the penny

BY SHAWN BOURGEOIS

hen we buy a used car, we like to take a look at what’s available in the market and determine fair price between vendor and purchaser. We shake hands and we’re done. With Glencore International’s recent purchase of Viterra Inc., it raises the question: what gives on their version of fair price? For the last three years, Viterra has been range bound between $8 and $12 per share. Their performance as a company is no secret. Why the 48 percent premium? Cargill walks around, kicks the tires and suggests $13, $14, $14.50 tops. Not a penny more. Archer Daniels Midland notes the chips in the paint from the recent Agricore race, but sees plenty of traction available in the slightly oversized tires. Let’s make a deal at $15.50. Not good enough. Viterra thinks it’s worth $16.25, a 48 percent premium over what it was advertised for before the media got hold of this juicy story. Enter Glencore, the world’s largest commodity trader. It takes a slightly different approach, realizing that they don’t make cars like this anymore. As well, Glencore believes that perhaps $16.25 will seem cheap in a few years. Glencore’s purchase of Viterra gives us several reasons to take pause and think about why this happened and what it means. I think we have heard all of the responses we might anticipate in a deal like this: concerns for protecting prairie jobs, keeping the head office in Regina, issues of market dominance, all of our grain handlers being

fair game for takeover now that the CWB is gone, and the selling of another home-grown Canadian global company to a much larger global company. I think all of these concerns have merit, but is there a much bigger point to be made here? Is agriculture and its soft commodities playing catch-up in an increasingly demandrich and supply-scarce world? This seems to be Glencore’s position. Does the Glencore deal give you confidence in our sector? It should. The question remains: who’s next? Better yet, what’s next? How would you like the next 20 years to unfold in our sector? Should we be concerned about investment

Remember the days when some things actually cost one cent?

I capital scooping up large amounts of productive prairie land? Many of you undoubtedly have first-hand knowledge of these transactions. Do you feel land is becoming nearly unattainable in your area at these current commodity prices? Is it priced on investment speculation rather than production speculation? With funding cuts in many government depar tments, especially research, does this mean a further surrender on plant breeding rights to Bayer Crop Science, Monsanto, Richardson, Glencore and others? If we prefer to invest in the latest seed technology, will we be forced to buy it from a specific retailer every

However, let’s not allow better times to distract us when selling our hard-earned and cared for assets to the most eager bidder. After all, in a few years, we may look back and realize we were selling a rare Mercedes for the price of an old used car.

Independent research sorts through the jargon HURSH ON AG

emember when you were a wide-eyed kid attending the exhibition in the city? All the hucksters wanted your money. Throw the ball in the basket or shoot a target and win a prize. It was always much harder than it looked. And in the games with “a winner every time,” the prize was worth a fraction of what it cost to play. Farming is a lot like that. Everyone has something to sell and everything you buy is going to make you a winner. Sales pitches have always been part of agriculture. The big difference these days is that farmers have mon-

ey and we’re looking for ways to make even more. A new product that cost $5, $10 or $20 an acre was a tough sell when you could scarcely pencil a profit and you wondered if you had enough operating credit to get you through to harvest. Now, you may be more inclined to listen to the sales pitch. We know the basics about fertilizer use, but how do you assess the need for micronutrients that can be applied in various forms? Yes, plants need zinc, manganese and boron, but will there be a response on your land? Herbicides have to be effective for weed control as well as safe for the crop before they can be registered. But with the proliferation of tank mixes and new names for the same products, it’s a real chore to figure it all out. The fear of herbicide resistance has become a major marketing tool. Seed treating has become much more prevalent, and more fungicides are being applied in-crop. The nega-

tive effects are easy to see if you don’t use nitrogen or don’t spray for weeds, but that’s often not the case with seed treatments and fungicides, where it can be difficult to assess whether you’ve made a good investment. Every manufacturer of seeding equipment has a system that is going to improve efficiency and the accuracy of seed placement. You can’t afford not to have the new system. And variable rate technology will maximize the returns from the dollars you spend on inputs if you can just figure out the right prescription. If you add up all the things you can buy to increase yields, we should be growing 80 bushels per acre on wheat and canola every year. Of course, even if we invest in all the correct inputs, Mother Nature bats last. Don’t get me wrong. There’s been a lot of money left on the table by being too cautious with inputs, particularly fertilizer. And we need technological advancements to keep up with our competitors around the

world. However, it would be great to have more independent testing and analysis. Applied research is done in various forms and various locations, but unanswered questions still abound. We lost independent testing of canola varieties for awhile. It returned last year and hopefully it will continue to receive the support of the seed companies. On-farm testing may seem like a great idea, but it has limited application. Do you really have the time to leave check strips? And will you be able to detect a yield response if it’s only a few bushels per acre? Even replicated plot trials often provide inconclusive results. It’s time to dig deep and invest big dollars to grow another crop. There are new products and approaches that will make you money. Do you know which ones they are?

n a post-budget discussion last week, Western Producer Farm Living editor Karen Morrison sent me back in time on a cloud of nostalgia. All she did was note that when we were young, you could stick a penny in a gumball machine and chew on the bounty for as long as the flavour lasted. It was a pretty good deal for a little kid. I haven’t gone near gumballs for decades, so I don’t know what one goes for these days, but it’s certainly not a penny. If a gumball is 25 cents today, we’re talking about some serious inflation over the last 40-ish years. If you can’t even buy penny candy anymore, what is a penny worth today? According to numbers from the federal government, it’s either worth 1.6 cents — the cost of producing the coin — or absolutely nothing, since it’s being eliminated from our stash of currency. The unlucky penny will remain legal tender, but production of the coin will be halted this year, saving the government $11 million annually. I have a lot of great ideas on how to spend $11 million — ag research, for instance, or topping up Old Age Security — but the money is going toward an effort to beat back the deficit. Canada is well behind many other countries in eliminating its smallest denomination of currency. For example, Sweden eliminated its one and two cent coins in 1972, or 40 years ago. New Zealand turfed its penny in 1990, and Australia did so two years later. What’s a little weird about the whole thing is that commerce will still be based on the cent. We will still be paying, for example, $99.99 or $31.67, assuming we use debit or credit cards — or even that other ancient mode of payment, the cheque. If we pay cash, though, there will be rounding off to the nearest nickel. Rounding down, I think, is unlikely, but we can only hope. That aside, I probably won’t miss the penny in today’s economy. What I do miss is going to the candy store with my cousin, spending 25 cents on all the treats I could eat, and playing in the backyard the rest of the day. Funny how a budget directive can bring back memories and focus your attention on how (expensively) times have changed.

GREAT CAREERS To the Editor: Outright indignation would be a starting point that could be used to describe my annoyance while reading an article published on Newsweek’s Daily Beast website. The article headline was 20 Most Useless Degrees, and horticulture, agriculture and animal science were reserved the second, third, and 20th spots respectively on that list. This article caused quite a stir within the agricultural community and I am writing to show support for an article published in the Feb. 23 edition of this paper, entitled Stu-

dents optimistic on prospects, where the writer advocated for values of a post-secondary education in agriculture. Currently, I am a fourth year student at the University of Alberta, enrolled in the faculty of agricultural, life and environmental sciences, obtaining a BSc in sustainable agricultural systems. In my four shor t years I have learned many things, but none more important than the merit of a degree in agriculture. Recently I attended an industry dinner, put on by the U of A Ag Club, and there were more representatives from companies in the industry than students looking for summer or fulltime positions. The reality is our industry is booming, and companies are looking for educated young minds to fill well paying jobs that offer countless career opportunities: careers in companies filled with like-minded energetic individuals of all ages with a strong passion and advocacy for the agricultural industry. To date, I have met numerous peers who had completed degrees in areas of general science or economics that were going back to school to obtain degrees in agriculture. Why, you might ask? Jobs. Jobs in an industry full of growth and opportunity. Jobs in an industry that encourages hands-on learning and that stimulates awareness and relationships between producers, consumers and policy makers.

Jobs that pay, where on a good day you will likely smell of cow manure, canola pollen or potting soil. Jobs, where you can put your education to work. Jacob Boychuk, Waskatenau, Alta.

RURAL SUPPORT

Josh Melzer, Flatbush, Alta.

To the Editor: In response to Barry Wilson’s article, New federal programs coming, March 1 WP, in the policy framework section I would like to state that many farmers have suffered greatly in the past years and still require financial help to remain a force in the global market. Farmers may have grossed a higher average income this year, but compared to recent lows of the past seasons, this leaves no excuse to cut government spending towards support programs. Many farmers were forced to borrow loans these past years due to the increasing costs of farming, poor prices in both the cattle and wheat industry, and increasing competition with an increasingly globalized economy. With increased financial debt, farms have been set back a pace and may take several years or more to recover. This creates many producers that are financially unstable, needing more than one year of good profits to

WATER PROBLEMS To the Editor: In a recent WP (March 1), Kathy Sloan (no relation) of Alameda, Sask., wrote of drainage issues. Saskatchewan does have water p r o b l e m s, t h a t ’s f o r s u r e. My brother does not have access to his quarter section of pastureland due to road washouts, so for 2011 he could not get his cattle to pasture and they were put in a community pasture. Repeated pleas to his local rural municipality office have gone unheeded, as did an application to have his property taxes on that land waived for 2011. Does he not have a right to access to his land? Apparently not. In the same RM, the powers that be are insistent on making water run up hill in front of my mother’s yard site. No success there so far. So a pool of stagnant water lies in the ditch and has flooded part of the yard, slowly

drowning the evergreens. Here in Alberta, we built a new home a few years ago in a hamlet with very little infrastructure, not knowing that our lots would be flooded repeatedly by runoff from the roof of the house next door, a problem that could be easily fixed by slanting their eavestroughs towards the south instead of the north. Repeated requests to the property owner and our county office were ignored. To be able to use our yard, we’ve had to bury weeping tile the whole length of our lots on the north side and south side to carry the excess water to the culvert in front of our lots, an expense we didn’t count on. So I would advise anyone building in these small centres to look into property drainage before building. Elaine Sloan, Busby, Alta.

FRACKING NOT PROVEN SAFE To the Editor: We have been told by experts that our superior regulatory system and education of the public is all we need to facilitate safe fracking in Alberta.

OPINION drinking water aquifers currently used by local populations. This contradicts Directive 008, which states, “surface casing is a permanent structure of the well bore that effectively protects in-use aquifers that supply domestic water wells.” Directive 027 allows casings to be perforated, thus providing all the protection of a condom with a pinhole. Go online and read. The illustration in Directive 027 shows that fracking from a gas well bore ,which is less than 200 metres on the ground away from a water well, may occur at a separation of 50.1 vertical metres below the aquifer. If a gas well is more than 200 horizontal metres away from the closest water well, this vertical separation is no longer required and fracturing may occur in the same aquifer the water well draws from, a fact confirmed by ERCB staff.

Don’t imagine that industry would never do this. They already have. The government has the power to make fracking illegal in drinking water, but the law stands as is for a reason. Our water is not being adequately protected by regulations. Fracking has not been proven safe by anyone. Industry denials of damage don’t count as proof. I recommend watching a documentary called Gasland. See ordinary people with no reason to lie and ponder this: we are not better than Americans. It’s the same companies doing the same thing to the land and the people. Why would anyone believe fracking will be different here? The regulations will not protect you. Read Ernst versus EnCana. That’s an education. Fiona Lauridsen, Rosebud, Alta.

MARKET SCRAMBLE To the Editor: Recently, a well-qualified independent study reported that the Canadian Wheat Board’s single desk marketing system for wheat netted western farmers one half billion extra dollars every year. I’m afraid we farmers will have to be very sharp operators to make up that extra half billion. Personally, I admit to not having the expertise, tools or time to make better marketing decisions than the CWB’s full-time experts. Instead of the freedom promised, we will be tethered to our computers and brokers. Instead of equal opportunities for a fair price, we will be forced to scramble for delivery times and fair grades. One would think an agriculture minister would welcome farmer ini-

tiatives to secure their own advantages and profits. Indeed, “before” the last election the honourable (agriculture minister) Gerry Ritz promised to leave the CWB intact as long as a majority of farmers wanted it. Instead it was appalling and shocking to see the obvious glee and relish shown by the honourable minister in destroying the institution that most of us have depended on over the years. The Harper Conservatives, and before them the Reform party, have always had Senate reform as a major plank in their platform. They want an elected Senate rather than an appointed one. But after dismantling the single desk, they fired the democratically elected farmers on the board and promoted their own appointees to be the board. It is a very unscrupulous approach

and one that serves to lay bare their democratic values. Donald Thompson, Rosalind, Alta.

SHARING PAIN | COMPASSION

Easter message one of joy SPIRITUAL VIGNETTES

JOYCE SASSE

hen the father scolded his young daughter because she didn’t come straight home from school, the child told him her best friend’s doll got broken. “So you helped her pick up the pieces?” the father asked. “No,” the youngster said. “We sat down and I helped her cry.” That story comes to mind as we approach Easter. One day I stopped in at a city church to see some paintings done by amateur artists. These folks found ways to express, through art, what Lent and Easter meant to them. Some of the paintings were of a more traditional nature and some I found a bit hard to interpret. But one painting has always stayed with me. It was of a cluster of flowers blooming in the garden. Tears were falling from the centre of each flower. For me, it paralleled the story of the youngster, as if God stopped and helped us cry. Nobody has to tell us there’s a lot of pain in life. It may be our grief and loneliness, our fears and frustrations or our feelings of helplessness that bring the tears. It may be we cry for ourselves, or our families, or the situation in our community or the hopelessness of the evening news. But there is a better way to live. We are created as an act of love by a compassionate God who will sit with us, cry with us and be a companion in those difficult times. God constantly seeks ways to show us we are creatures of love, and to assure us of the presence of that ongoing support. The ancient story tells of a garden filled with wonderful gifts of life. God shows us how Jesus opened the gate to that garden to bring us back into paradise. This is the joy-filled message of Easter.

HEMP | NEW PRODUCT

Hemp may be building block to cosy home Construction material | Hemp fibre product durable, biodegradable and superior to insulation made from fibreglass BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

An American company is planning to build a manufacturing plant in Ontario that will turn hemp into a compostable construction material. American Lime Technology, a Chicago company that specializes in low carbon building materials, wants to manufacture a ready to install insulating product made from hemp at a plant near Toronto, said sales manager Matt Englemann. Hemcrete, the company’s trademark name for the generic product hempcrete, is used to create insulating walls and non-load bearing walls. “Hemcrete is not a structural material. It’s used in conjunction with another structure,” said Englemann. “Hemcrete is a combination of the woody core of the industrial hemp plant, bound together with a binder of lime and other natural mineral materials. It’s not Portland cement based.” Hempcrete doesn’t have the strength of concrete, but it’s much lighter and is breathable, durable and biodegradable. Englemann said that as an insulation, it is superior to conventional products made from fibreglass. “It’s really got a very unique combination of material properties that make it quite appealing for construction of building envelopes.” American Lime Technology, the North American marketing arm of British company Lime Technology, has been in business since 2008. Tradical Hemcrete, the company’s trademarked brand, is poured at a construction site to form walls around the building’s frame. “We ship the industrial hemp shives in bales and the binder in bags. It’s mixed with water on site and cast into place,” Englemann said. Hempcrete cannot be cast at temperatures below freezing, so Lime Technology has developed a system in which panels are formed at a plant and then assembled at the construction site. The proposed manufacturing plant near Toronto would manufacture the pre-cast panels and other hemp construction materials. Similar pre-cast panels are being used to insulate a new Marks & Spencer store in England, according to Lime Technology’s website. In North America, American Lime Technology is supplying Hemcrete to construction projects. A division of Lime Technology is also looking at building a hemp fibre processing plant in Alberta, which may also manufacture Hemcrete. The leader of the Alberta project wasn’t ready to speak about the plant, saying the company would provide more information this fall. Jan Slaski, a plant crop physiologist and hemp specialist for Alberta Innovates Technology Futures, has heard about the proposed plant. “There is an entrepreneur who has incorporated his company in southern Alberta,” he said. “His main goal, or business interest, is production of biocomposites for biobuilding materials.” He said it makes sense to build

such a plant in Alberta because the provincial government is focused on industrial uses for hemp rather than hemp grain. “In Alberta, we are taking a slightly different approach to hemp,” he said. “We are developing hemp for fibre.” Consequently, Slaski and others are developing best agronomic practices for high yielding, high quality hemp fibre. Hemp fibres grown in Alberta may be used to make biocomposites for the automobile and aerospace industries, but most of the short fibre is suitable for building materials, Slaski said. “Hemp contains two types of fibre: long fibre and short fibre,” he said. “Long fibre, that is what is used for manufacture of car parts and textile, but 70 percent of the crop is short fibre … the inner core fibre.” Englemann said hemp is greener than fibreglass insulation because it is renewable and compostable,an advantage if North American jurisdictions create renewable construction standards, he added. “To have a high performance building solution that can last hundreds of years and still be compostable, is pretty fantastic.”

AGRONOMY | WHEAT MIDGE

Grower stresses midge tolerant wheat’s value

MIDGE TOLERANT WHEAT FAQS How does the technology work? • The varieties contain the Sm1 gene. The gene causes naturally occurring phenolic acids in the wheat to elevate more rapidly than wheat kernels without the gene. The higher level of phenolic acid in the wheat deters the midge larvae from feeding. Is this a genetically modified technology?

Farmers in north are early adapters

• No. The Sm1 gene naturally occurs in wheat. The midge tolerant varieties were developed through crosses with a U.S. winter wheat variety. Agriculture Canada wheat breeders in Winnipeg and Swift Current, Sask., and scientists at the Crop Development Centre at the University of Saskatchewan used Western Grains Research Foundation funds to develop the new varieties.

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Robert Stevenson can’t understand why more producers haven’t switched to midge tolerant wheat varieties. The technology protects a farmer’s wheat crop from a potential midge outbreak, and the yield potential is as good or better than other spring wheat varieties in Western Canada. “I’m surprised that there hasn’t been more uptake on them,” said Stevenson, who has grown midge tolerant wheat for several years on his farm near Kenton, Man. However, he said producer attitudes toward midge tolerant wheat may change rapidly if conditions are ripe for midge in Manitoba this summer. “As soon as we get a bad year for

What is an interspersed refuge? • Midge tolerant seed is mixed with wheat seed susceptible to midge at a 9:1 ratio, as opposed to the refuge for Bt corn, where a block of susceptible acres is seeded within the same field. The industry term for an interspersed system is “refuge in a bag.” Source: www.midgetolerantwheat.ca

midge, anyone that grows them is going to look really smart and there will be lots more uptake.” Despite slow adoption in some parts of the Prairies, western Canadian wheat growers as a whole have bought into midge tolerant wheat since the technology became commercially available in 2010. Todd Hyra, Secan’s business manager for Western Canada, said Unity VB was the third most popular spring wheat variety on the Prairies last year, after Harvest and Lillian. Harvest had 17.6 percent of seeded acreage, Lillian had 17.4 percent and Unity had 6.6 percent. Hyra said most of the early adopters of midge tolerant wheat farm in northern Saskatchewan, where growers are all too familiar with the insect. “The uptake has been good, especially in areas that have had past track records with midge,” he said. “Melfort, Tisdale, through there, they’ve had years where they really couldn’t grow wheat … because they couldn’t manage the pest.” Stevenson said growers in Manitoba, southern Saskatchewan and Alberta have been more reluctant to jump on the bandwagon, possibly because midge pressure has been minimal in recent years. “The midge has been at the low end of its cycle the last four years.” However, Stevenson said he has noticed a difference between midge tolerant varieties and other varieties even with minimal pressure. The midge tolerant varieties haven’t been downgraded at the elevator, while he has seen midge damage on his other wheat. Mark Keating, who farms near Russell, Man., is also sold on midge tolerant wheat. He estimates a five percent yield loss even in years with light midge pressure. “I think that the yield difference is too great too ignore,” he said. “Thirty percent of my wheat crop in 2011 was midge tolerant. In 2012, I plan to increase that to 70 percent.” Stevenson said midge tolerant varieties give him peace of mind during the growing season. “You don’t even have to consider spraying. You don’t have to be out scouting your fields in the evening when the mosquitoes are out.” One factor working against midge tolerant wheat is a stewardship agreement. Growers must agree to limit the use of saved seed to one generation past certified seed. Midge tolerant wheat uses an interspersed refuge, where midge tolerant seed is mixed with susceptible seed in a 9:1 ratio. According to www.midgetolerantwheat.ca, a website promoting the technology, producers need to follow the agreement and preserve the 9:1 ratio to extend the life of midge tolerance from years to decades.

RAILWAYS | SERVICE LEGISLATION

Liberals push for gov’t action on railway service legislation Shippers may soon lose patience | MP Ralph Goodale says shippers are getting angry over the delaying tactics of the railways STORIES BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

With the Conservative government still refusing to commit to a timetable for unveiling railway service legislation, its harshest opposition critic on the issue says railways are winning by default. Regina Liberal MP Ralph Goodale has renewed his call for the government to introduce legislation before Parliament adjourns in June so that shipper interests can study it over the summer and MPs can pass it quickly in the fall. “The tactic of the railways is clear,

just keep wearing everyone down and hope the issue goes away,” he said March 28. “What we need is a government that says, ‘we’re not going to take this anymore and here’s the legislation.’ ” During a March 27 appearance at the House of Commons transport committee, transport deputy minister Yaprak Baltacioglu repeated the government promise that legislation is planned but gave no timeline. A 2010 rail service review report noted repeated examples of poor rail service for commodity shippers and proposed binding level-of-service agreements between railways and

commodity shippers, backed up with legislation that can impose penalties if industry agreements are not honoured. Former Alberta treasurer Jim Dinning has been working since late last year as a facilitator to work out the mechanics. Dinning’s mandate runs out this spring, and shipper sources say little progress has been made because the railways are resisting service commitments. “It’s a relatively contentious area,” Baltacioglu told Alberta Conservative MP Blake Richards. “I would say Mr. Dinning is doing

NO BIG SURPRISE

very well, bringing the parties to the table. We’re looking forward to his report to the minister, I think later in the springtime. After that, the government is on the record that we will be introducing legislation on this subject.” Goodale said later the railways will not begin to compromise until they know the government is serious. “It’s not a complicated piece of legislation, 151 words, I think, is what you would need to get this ball rolling,” he said. “The railways are winning until the legislation is presented. At the moment, the inertia is on the side of

the railways.” The veteran MP and former agriculture minister also raised the possibility that continual delays in setting a policy could breed the need for even more delay. “It has been six years since the original data was collected so the data is getting outdated,” he said. “They may have to go back and collect it all again, so that’s another year. It’s a strategy of delay by the railways.” Goodale suggested it is not a government priority and said there has been little concerted opposition pressure. Transport minister Denis Lebel did not raise the rail service issue in his statement when he appeared before the Commons committee, and almost all subsequent questions from MPs were about job losses in the airline industry and plans for bridge replacement in Quebec. However, Goodale predicted that prairie shippers will soon lose patience. “I think at the end of the day, this is such a powerful populist issue that the government will have to decide if it is on the side of shippers or the railway duopoly,” he said. “I think when presented with that stark political choice, they will have no choice than to produce the legislation, but it will be like pulling teeth. I think the shippers will begin to get angry if they don’t see something at least by fall.”

A decision by the federal Conservative government to cut $319 million from the international aid budget within two years is being condemned by aid groups. In his deficit-cutting March 29 budget, finance minister Jim Flaherty announced that the budget of the Canadian International Development Agency will feel the full effects of the cuts by the 2014-15 fiscal year. The International Development Research Centre budget will take a $23 million hit that year. The budget said the savings will c o m e a s C I D A b e c o m e s m o re focused, efficient and accountable. “CIDA will restructure its operations to reduce its operational costs and concentrate its efforts where it can have the greatest impact,” it said. Aid groups rejected the justification. Oxfam Canada accused the Conservative government of “turning its back on the world’s poor.” It had called on Ottawa to use the budget to lift its four-year freeze on the $5 billion budget. “On the generosity index, this budget moves Canada closer to the bottom of the world’s 22 donor countries,” said Oxfam policy co-ordinator Mark Fried. “Why is the government saving money on the backs of the world’s most vulnerable people?” World Vision Canada, often supportive of federal efforts to focus aid on target countries to make it more effective, also condemned the cuts.

Based on the gleam in his eye, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clear that Nick DenBrok is proud of his 22-month-old grandson, Kage Sandilands. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because Kage, even at his young age, is demonstrating an instinctive ability to work with horses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He knows every horse in the barn and he knows them by name,â&#x20AC;? said DenBrok, who has bred and trained draft horses at Rocky Bar Ranch near Esterhazy, Sask., for 44 years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we bring a horse out to harness, he tells us which horse weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bringing out. When Grandpa is driving, or practicing, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the wagon with me wanting to hold the reins or the whip.â&#x20AC;? DenBrok is also feeling good these days about his lifelong passion for

breeding and showing Belgian horses. Times are good in the draft horse business right now, he said, because folks with deep pockets have injected dollars into the industry. Businesspeople, primarily Americans, have assembled draft horse teams over the last several years, partly for the prestige and partly because they want to revive a personal connection to heavy horses from their youth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That draft horse has always been in the back of their mind. And a lot of them have decided to take up showing a six horse hitch as a hobby,â&#x20AC;? DenBrok said during a break in the action at the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair in Brandon, where he was showing horses from Rocky Bar Ranch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mostly businessmen.

Mary and Cassidy are part of the team at Gardiner’s Belgians in Virden, Man. | ROBERT ARNASON PHOTOS really stepped up the last number of years.” The new money has increased demand for hitch horses such as Belgians. The increased interest in hitches is fantastic news for organizers of the North American Belgian Championships, which will be held in Brandon this July, because 32 to 35 six-horse hitches from across the continent are expected to attend. “That’s an entry that’s never been seen anywhere in the world,” said DenBrok, who will also compete in Brandon this summer. “The six horse hitch is the Cadillac. Everybody is trying to win the six horse hitch.” More than 500 draft horses, and all

the people who manage those horses, will compete in the North American Belgian Championships in Brandon, said event chair Robert Berry. The RCMP Musical Ride will also perform at the show, said Berry, who hopes 15,000 to 20,000 people attend the five day competition. “This show is almost like the Olympics,” he said. “It’s every four years. Soon as one show finishes people start building up for (the next show).” Berry, who runs Bar RB Belgians in Birtle, Man., said the new players and new money partially explain the increased demand for breeding stock. Another factor is the Amish communities of the eastern United States,

which are short workhorses and are also pushing demand higher. The heightened interest in showing hitches has altered the nature of draft horse competitions in North America, said Brenda Hunter, secretary and publicity manager for the Brandon event, who shows Belgians under the name Image Acres in Hamiota, Man. She said getting into the top six at an event is more challenging now than it was 10 years ago when she started showing horses. “I have noticed that the level of competition has gotten much stronger. The horses have gotten better and the people have gotten better.” Although competition and interest is up, the draft horse business in

Manitoba and Saskatchewan is much smaller than it was in 1996, the last time Brandon hosted the North American Belgian Championships. “With the downturn in the PMU industr y, we have seen a huge decrease in the number of breeders,” said Berry, who estimated there were three times as many breeders in the region in the mid-1990s. “Probably somewhere between a dozen and 20, would be (the) max in those two provinces.” Membership in the Manitoba Percheron Belgian Club now stands at 50 to 60 families, compared to 100 families before pregnant mare urine barns closed, Berry said. However, DenBrok said youth interest in draft horses is healthy on

the Prairies as youth programs in Canada produce a passionate crop of horse breeders and trainers. “I would say the junior ranks, we probably have the best group of juniors anywhere in North America right now.” There’s no guarantee those juniors will start their own farms and breed and train Belgian horses, but Berry said they should sustain the horse industry on the Prairies if they maintain their passion. “If we keep this generation coming through high school interested, even if it doesn’t become their sole vocation, it’s their hobby (for life).” For more information on the North American Belgian Championships in Brandon, visit www.nabcvii.com.

Farm and Ranch show a learning opportunity STORY AND PHOTOS BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

EDMONTON — Raymond Phillips doesn’t just wander around the Farm and Ranch show picking up pamphlets. The northern Alberta farmer stops at each booth, listens to the discussion and seeks out new products.

“I consider farm shows as a seminar,” said Phillips, who farms near Beauvallon. “Farm shows are my education.” Phillips suspected he might have found a tool he can use when he stopped at the Multiples welding booth in the new products section of the show. The welding tool uses distilled

water, alcohol and household current for welding, cutting, soldering and brazing. Multiplaz salesperson Jim Bondy of Onoway, Alta., started importing the Russian-invented machines to Canada last year when he went looking for a welder. He was so impressed with the combination welder and cutting machine

that he secured the rights to sell it in Canada. The fuel for the cutting tool is a syringe of water squeezed in the top of a hand piece that looks like a drill. The combination of water and electricity creates hydrogen to produce a jet of heat 14,000 degrees. The tool can cut 3/8 plate steel when plugged into a 110 power outlet

and 5/8 plate steel when using 220 power. Water and isopropyl alcohol are combined to create a welder that can be used outdoors to weld cast iron, aluminum, all alloy steel including stainless steel, plus copper, brass and bronze. “With a 4,000 watt generator, you can hang around your favorite fish-

VERMILION, Alta. — Students in Lakeland College’s student managed farm program earned a profit of $107,000 last year and have $138,000 worth of grain still in the bins. An 18 acre field of AC Andrew soft wheat yielded slightly more than 80 bushels per acre and a 15 acre field of Ranger barley produced 90 bu. per acre. Their three varieties of canola ranged from 36 to 43 bu. per acre on 300 acres but was downgraded because of patchy germination in the spring and an early frost in the fall. Jared Sapach, marketing manager for the program, said selling frozen canola for $9.46 to $12.07 per bu. was an accomplishment for the 24 students, despite the poor quality. “Our canola was all downgraded due to green counts, but we were still able to sell well above the breakeven price and make a decent profit of it,” said Sapach, who knew nothing of pricing and selling grain before enrolling in the college’s agriculture department. Public relations manager Codey Boehm said a 96 acre field of peas was the highlight. “In my opinion, the best crop was the peas because they yielded 62 bu. per acre, which was one of the best crops in the area,” said Boehm. “The peas require less nutrients in spring. Prices were also very strong for peas, at around $9 per bushel. Normally prices are in the $6 range so you can see why they were the top crop for the farm.” Dry seedbeds, frost, market fluctuations, high fertilizer prices, seeding decisions, bumper yields and a wide variety of chemical options — welcome to the world of farming. Lakeland College has had a student managed farm program since 1990, but it recently changed its focus to concentrate on training students in critical thinking as well as production. Agricultural sciences dean Josie Van Lent said the students learn marketing, production, soils and business management, but they also learn critical thinking. “We wanted to model ag business,” she said. “What we really teach is management of an agriculture business. That was our renewal.” During weekly meetings, students discuss what crops to plant, chemicals to use and where to sell the crops. “You should see the meetings these guys have and the things they talk about. ‘Should we grow flax? How do you decide to grow flax?” said Van Lent.

We wanted to model ag business. What we really teach is management of an agriculture business. That was our renewal. JOSIE VAN LENT AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES DEAN

Students make all the decisions on the farm and have access to 1,700 acres of college-owned land, purebred Black Angus and commercial cattle herds, Dorset and Arcott sheep and Holstein and Jersey dairy cattle. Team work, decision-making, conflict resolution, planning and organizing are among the management skills taught in the program. Cory Laird, this year’s general manager, said learning how to work with and manage people was the skill he learned most during his time with the student management farm. “The biggest part was learning how to communicate and keep all the group informed,” said Laird, who didn’t grow up on a farm but already has a job after graduation with an independent agriculture retailer. “It was very important to have weekly general meetings. That was an opportunity for each group to stay in touch. We also held managers meetings every week to discuss strategies,” he said. “It also taught me that different people responded to different ways. There are a lot of ways to handle issues.” Van Lent said it is satisfying to watch young students confidently stand in front of their team and advocate why peas should be grown rather than flax, or why they should wait to sell their grain. These are skills the students will use when they return to the family farm or get a job in business, she added. “That’s the coolest part, that’s so rewarding,” she said. “For many of these students who are going back to larger farm operations, with both family members, employees or both or they’re going into an ag business, they have to work with many other people.… For all of us that work here, it’s incredibly rewarding to watch them grow and develop.” The number of students studying agriculture at Lakeland College has doubled in the past five years to 300 from 150. “We went through a major curriculum review process. It helped us to stay current and drive student managed farm in a renewed focus,” Van Lent said.

SEA BUCKTHORN | SUPPLY, MARKETS

Processing, marketing, supply challenge sea buckthorn growth Fledgling agribusiness venture | Size of market difficult to pinpoint, statistics sparse on small crop for acreage, production and sales STORIES BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Sea buckthorn has been touted as a promising fruit for orchard owners for more than a decade, but the industry remains a work in progress on the Prairies. Processing raw products and finding markets and a consistent supply of berries have impeded progress, but growers and experts in the field still see room for the brightly coloured berry alongside more traditional fruits. In the mid-1990s, word spread about the fruitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s potential: the plant was well-suited to growth on the Prairies and the shrubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nutritious and vitamin-rich fruit has uses in food, cosmetic and nutraceutical products, with markets in China, Russia and Europe. Even today, an endorsement from TVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dr. Oz has kept the plant in the publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mind. The size of market demand, however, is difficult to pinpoint. A 2000 market analysis conducted for the

Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration Shelterbelt Centre was unable to put a number to it and concluded, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The development of the sea buckthorn in the prairie provinces is approaching a critical point. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At present there is only one potential investor for the construction of a sea buckthorn processing plant in the prairies,â&#x20AC;? said the report. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Should, for whatever reason, this plant not be constructed and operated, the producers who have invested in the establishment of sea buckthorn orchards and shelterbelts will essentially have no market for their sea buckthorn fruit.â&#x20AC;? About 550 acres of sea buckthorn were planted in Saskatchewan and Manitoba at the time. A Saskatchewan processing plant didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t materialize. There were production problems, as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had originally thought that maybe people would harvest from their shelterbelts, but we soon found that really wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t practical,â&#x20AC;? said Bill Schroeder, a research adviser at Agri-

AC Autumn Glow is a new variety of sea buckthorn from the Agroforestry Development Centre in Indian Head, Sask. | ADC PHOTO culture Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Agroforestry Development Centre in Indian Head, Sask., who has bred sea buckthorn varieties for orchard production. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that for the amount of fruit that we feel would need to be provided by growers and the cost of collection and the variability we see in

shelterbelts as far as productivity, it just didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make economic sense.â&#x20AC;? On the dioecious sea buckthorn plant, only female shrubs produce fr uit. With inconsistent malefemale ratios in shelterbelts, consistent production was problematic, an issue compounded by a difficult

and laborious harvest. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a situation familiar to grower Betty Forbes, owner of Northern Vigor Berries. Her family planted a 13-acre orchard outside of Kamsack, Sask., in 1998. By 2006, she had to stop her father from plowing everything up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;no, we need to do something about this, because the value is too great ...â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said Forbes. Her business grows its own sea buckthorn and sells berries and products â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including gelato, fruit leather and even a tea from the leaves of male plants â&#x20AC;&#x201D; at the Saskatoon Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also taken up marketing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; something other growers might be hesitant to do, she said â&#x20AC;&#x201D; harvesting the berries for other growers and acting as a broker for those who ship to her, while taking orders from buyers in Quebec and the United States. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to supply huge markets without the help of other growers,â&#x20AC;? she said, noting orders can be for as much as 10,000 kilograms at a time.

NEW VARIETY | RESEARCH

Prairie shrub presents prickly problem for growers trying to harvest around thorns Researchers in Saskatchewan had harvest in mind while developing a new variety of sea buckthorn for prairie fruit growers. The shrub is well-suited to the prairie environment â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and has been commonly spotted in shelterbelts and wildlife habitat plantings for decades â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but fruit growers interested in the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s berries for commercial food and neutraceutical markets have encountered the same problem: thorny branches and weak skin make the fruit difficult to remove in a timely

and cost-effective manner. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s among the reasons production in Saskatchewan has been limited. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you hear the words sea buckthorn, you automatically think of thorns, right? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really an issue that made people shy away from them, because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re difficult to manage,â&#x20AC;? said Bill Schroeder, a research adviser at Agriculture Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Agroforestry Development Centre in Indian Head, Sask. AC Autumn Glow is the latest sea buckthorn variety to come out of the

centre and the first since 2005. It maintains the biochemical composition buyers are looking for, essential fatty acids, and vitamins C and E, but has been bred with prairie growersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; concerns in mind. Researchers are looking at drought and cold resistance first, but also breeding for thornlessness and longer pedestals. Autumn Glow should produce a fruit thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost twice as large as previous varieties, growing from fivemillimetre-long stalks.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like picking grapes, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to grasp the fruit a lot easier or you can mechanize the harvest a little easier if you have these longer pedestals,â&#x20AC;? said Schroeder. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a move applauded by grower Betty Forbes of Northern Vigor Berries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) really going to make a difference, I think, to the industryâ&#x20AC;Ś. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going towards trying to get machinery in the orchard and that would be excellent.â&#x20AC;? Producers commonly harvest by cutting the branches and freezing

them to shake the fruit free, developing a rotation and harvesting biannually to allow regrowth. The agroforestry centre also has another two varieties in the pipeline. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interest, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a couple key cogs that arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite in the wheel yet,â&#x20AC;? said Schroeder, noting consistent production, processing and marketing as issues for growers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully, these new varieties will provide one of the missing parts to the puzzle,â&#x20AC;? he added.

Clydesdales face hurdles on way to new home Months of quarantine | South African immigrants bring their horses with them to Saskatchewan BY CALVIN DANIELS FREELANCE WRITER

YORKTON, Sask. — Klaus and Sandy Weber are in the process of immigrating to Saskatchewan from South Africa. Like most immigrants, the couple faces their share of challenges. However, one of those challenges is unique — they want to bring their horses with them. Sandy Weber said the couple has long had an interest in Clydesdales, and it was a natural to want to bring them to Canada. “In South Africa, we did not have a farm. I bred Clydesdales from our small holding as a hobby, which took up a lot of my time,” she said. “We decided to bring our horses because they are part of the family. The stallion is registered and is of

good breeding, but the real reason is because he is ‘my boy’ and my daughter brought her gelding because him and the stallion are inseparable, and Bailie is Kayla’s best friend. Some might say we are totally crazy.” The stallion has shown its quality, winning reserve champion draft stallion at the 2010 Horse of the Year, the biggest horse event in South Africa. “There are not many Clydes in South Africa, and the gene pool is really small, so most of the horses are related,” said Weber. “I believe my stallion can compete with the best, and so can a few of the horses in South Africa. However, there are a lot of crossbreds in South Africa, more than purebreds.” Weber said the process of bringing the horses to Canada has not been easy.

We know. It sounds too good to be true. But with Magnum™ tractors, equipped with SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology, there’s research to back it up. In recent independent tests*, the new Magnum 340 tractor with SCR technology outperformed the Deere 8335R in fuel efficiency across the entire power band. Plus, Magnum recorded up to 8% more drawbar horsepower than the competition. To learn more, visit your Case IH dealer or caseih.com/beready to see how Case IH tractors with SCR technology can help prepare you for the future.

“The extra steps were that we had to be away from our family, husband and son, and we have had to travel all over the country for quarantine,” she said. “We did not have to travel with our horses, but it was safer that way, and my stallion becomes impossible when I am not there. Strange as it may seem, we have a connection.” Weber said the paperwork was eased by having someone familiar with the process taking the lead. “The agent did most of the paperwork, and had to arrange the trip, but we were there looking after our horses,” she said. “Firstly, we had to go into quarantine in South Africa in Bronkhorstspruit for 26 days, then we flew to Mauritius, where we were in quarantine for a total of 92 days, then we flew to Germany, where we had to be for 90 days. “We did get a waiver to run the quarantine of 30 days and the residency of 60 days concurrently, but unfortunately our horses got sick, so they will probably end up doing the full 90 days.” The process has been a long one, but Weber said things have gone as well as could be expected. “Amazingly, the horses have done really well. They took the flights in their stride, as well as all the truck

rides. The heat in Mauritius got to them a little, and they had to be hosed off twice a day, but otherwise until now, when they got colds, they have done extremely well.” The final part of the process will take place in Canada. “Once they reach Canada, they will both still be in quarantine,” she said. “My stallion has to cover two mares for the final tests, and once that is all clear we are officially in Canada.” Weber said the process has cost far more than it would have buying a Clydesdale in Canada, but she said it was worth it. The family has bought an acreage near Yorkton and Weber has bought three mares in Canada. She plans to breed Clydes once she is settled in her new home. She said leaving South Africa was the right decision. “We decided to leave South Africa, a really beautiful country, because of the crime and corruption,” she said. “We had a small holding, or acreage as you call it, and for safety we had to have a 19-strand electric fence, with a motorized gate — it is too dangerous to open a gate manually. “Then on our houses we had burglar bars and security gates, which made us wonder why we were in prison. “Just before we left there was a syn-

ALL ABOUT CLYDESDALES • One of the most distinctive characteristics of Clydesdales is the long hair around their ankles, called the feather • Clydesdales were once used for pulling farm equipment • Queen Elizabeth II commissioned Clydesdales into royal service as drum carriers for the Household Cavalry Band • The breed is derived from Clydesdale, Scotland and stands 64 to 72 inches high and weighs 1,800 to 2000 pounds dicate stealing horses, so we had to keep our horses under lock and key. “We could live with all this, but the corruption just started becoming too much to bear. Every time you needed something done, there was somebody waiting for a bribe, which is something I do not do.”

WORLD IN BRIEF GMO

Europe’s GM plan in limbo BRUSSELS, Belgium (Reuters) — Increased cultivation of genetically modified crops in Europe remains a distant prospect after governments failed to agree on a plan to let them decide individually whether to grow GM plants. Environment ministers met in Brussels last month to debate a Danish compromise designed to break a deadlock in GM approvals but failed to agree on the plan because of opposition from Germany, France and Britain. Before the meeting, Britain had been seen as the most likely to change its position, which could have been enough to secure

majority EU backing for the plan. But with Britain demanding major changes to the compromise to withdraw its opposition, an official from the Danish EU presidency said it was hard to see how London’s demands could be met without losing the support of other EU countries. The Danish compromise plan proposed that companies seeking EU approval to cultivate a GM crop try to agree in advance not to market the product in countries that do not want to grow it. In return, they would receive approval to grow the crops in other EU countries. If that proved unsuccessful, countries would then be able to cite environmental concerns to ban cultivation in all or part of their territories, provided they respect World Trade Organization and EU internal market rules.

WHEAT PRODUCTION

Kenyan production up NAIROBI, Kenya (Reuters) — Kenya expects that increased planting and favourable weather will help triple wheat production this year. The agriculture ministry said it expected to harvest 6.3 million 90 kilogram bags of wheat in 2012, up from 2.2 million bags produced last year when prolonged drought slashed production in its main crop season. Kenya is a net importer of wheat, with consumption of 900,000 tonnes per year. Annual production has stood at an average of 350,000 tonnes in past years, implying it usually imports close to two-thirds of its requirements.

ENVIRONMENT

Sea benefits economy LONDON, U.K. (Reuters) — Cleaner and better-managed seas and coasts would help boost economic growth and reduce poverty and pollution, a United Nations Environment Programme report has said. The report, produced with several other UN organizations,

highlights the huge potential of a marine-based economy some five months before world governments meet to discuss pathways to more sustainable development at a UN conference in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Around 40 percent of the global population lives within 100 kilometers of a coast so the world’s marine ecosystems provide essential food, shelter and jobs to millions of people. But pollution from oil spills, fertilizers, waste, sewage and chemicals, as well as over-fishing, have damaged the health and productivity of the seas. By using oceans to generate renewable energy and eco-tourism and shifting to more sustainable fisheries and transport, that trend could be reversed and islands in Asia and the Caribbean could reduce their vulnerability to climate change, UNEP said.

SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) — A weather pattern blamed for heavy rain and crop destruction in the Asia-Pacific region over the past two years has run its course slightly ahead of schedule, forecasters in Australia said. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology said climate models indicate the weather phenomenon known as La Nina, the girl child, has come to an end, after earlier this month predicting it would drag on for further month or two. La Nina is an abnormal cooling of waters in the equatorial Pacific which can last for years, causing weather disruptions in Asia and the Americas. Sea surface temperatures across the central tropical Pacific Ocean were now at neutral levels, according to the bureau. La Nina’s more infamous counterpart, El Nino, leads to a heating of those waters while sparking drought in Southeast Asia and Australia, as well as floods in South America. WORLD MARKETS

Ukrainian wheat woes KIEV, Ukraine (Reuters) — Drought and frosts in late 2011 and early 2012 are likely to reduce Ukraine’s wheat acres to 9.88 to 10.63 million acres in 2012 from 16.31 million acres a year earlier. Oleksander Demidov, head of the agriculture ministry’s planting department, said farms were likely to replace damaged winter wheat with corn. As a result, the corn harvest could reach 25 million tonnes, up from 22.7 million in 2011. He said Ukraine was likely to export 20 million tonnes of grain in 2012-13 season and that corn would dominate the volume. Ukraine has exported 14.6 million tonnes of grain, including 8.7 million tonnes of corn and 3.6 million tonnes of wheat, so far this season. Analysts say Ukraine could harvest 20 to 21 million tonnes of corn and 10 to 14 million tonnes of wheat.

DELAIDE, Aus. — The elimination of single desk grain marketing in Australia has opened the door for dozens of new bulk export companies to sell Australian wheat around the world. But the country’s grain handling infrastructure is still controlled by a handful of large companies, say grain growers in the state of South Australia. And until that changes, growers will not see the true benefits of deregulation. “ We’v e g o t m o re c o m p a n i e s exporting grain, but I think we’ve still got a long ways to go before we’ve got adequate competition in our grain storage networks and in the export pathway,” said Garry Hansen, a grain farmer from Coomandook, S.A. Ownership of the grain handling infrastructure is a hot topic in Australia. Three major companies have almost complete control over terminal space in different parts of the country. The farmer-owned co-operative CBH Grain is the dominant player in Western Australia, the country’s top wheat exporting state. CBH owns 197 receiving sites and all of the state’s four export terminals. In South Australia, Viterra controls the infrastructure. It holds a near monopoly over country collection facilities and also owns every export terminal on the state’s south coast. GrainCorp, the largest bulk handling company in the states of Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland, operates 280 bulk storage facilities, owns seven export terminals and controls 20 million tonnes of total storage capacity. The only other companies with significant grain handling assets in Australia are Cargill and the Emerald Group. Cargill, which acquired the grain handling assets of the former Australian Wheat Board, owns 20 to 25 large bulk handling sites in South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales but has no port facilities. The Emerald Group is aligned with grower-owned co-operatives, which operate independent bulk storage sites across the country. Emerald is trying to solidify its position by acquiring the assets of Australian Bulk Alliance, which include more than a dozen country storage sites in New South Wales and Victoria and a grain export terminal in Melbourne. Although more than 25 companies are accredited to export bulk wheat from Australia, most of them rely on larger competing companies to store, move and elevate grain at port. Peter Woods, chief executive officer of Wheat Exports Australia (WEA), said deregulation has had many positive outcomes for Australia’s grain producers: more exporters, more foreign buyers of Australian grain and more investment in the

regional grain handling monopolies,” said Woods. “But I think, if you speak to growers and certainly to traders, they will say unfortunately that that is exactly what we ended up with.” Alison Watkins, chief executive officer of GrainCorp, said despite lingering concerns over control of the country’s grain handling infrastructure, Australia’s bulk handling companies are providing competitive service to farmers and small export companies. “As far as up-country operations go, we do encourage as many buyers of grain as possible to be active at our sites,” said Watkins, whose company owns seven of 10 grain export terminals on a 3,000 kilometre stretch of Australian coastline. “We want to attract as much grain into our system as we can, and we do that by having quite a number of active cash buyers at our sites and also by giving farmers the ability to market their grain in other ways after it’s in our system.” Peter Mailler, a grain grower from New South Wales who also serves as chair of the grain growers advocacy group Grain Producers Australia, agreed that eliminating single desk marketing has opened up new markets for Australian grain. About 160 foreign companies bought Australian wheat in 2010-11, compared to an average of less than 100 per year in the five years before deregulation. However, Mailler said the system would have benefitted growers more had the Australian government taken steps to ensure more competition at ports and country collection sites. The Australian government is expected to take steps in the next two years that will reduce its role in ensuring equitable and competitive port access. The new system will give port owners more latitude in negotiating commercial handling agreements with competing export companies When that happens, said Mailler, farmers and small exporters will have even less control over supply chain costs. “If you’ve got an unregulated market with healthy competition (at port), it’s probably OK to have less regulation,” said Mailler. “But if you’ve got an unregulated market with no competition, I think you’re in a world of trouble.”

ELBOURNE, Aus. — Australia’s rail network is showing its age and more and more, rail is moving a smaller proportion of the country’s wheat crop. In some areas, grain shippers are unable to compete for limited rail space with Australia’s booming mining industry, said Wayne Newton, a farmer from Dalby, Queensland. In other regions, rail infrastructure is badly outdated and the government has shown no inclination to upgrade lines or invest in aging infrastructure. That means trucks are hauling more grain to domestic users and export terminals. “When shippers have to get grain to port quickly, road is now the preferred method,” said Newton, who also serves as chair of AgForce, the state’s general farm organization. “And certainly, if you’ve seen the condition of some of our state’s roads lately, you know what’s happening.” John McNaught, managing director of the McNaughts Group and former vice-president of the Australian Road Train Association, said Australia’s trucking industry is benefitting from a significant increase in grain traffic. However, the trucking industry is struggling to keep up with demand and drivers are feeling the pressure. Traffic densities are increasing, co-ordination at delivery sites is a growing concern and turn-around times at port are often double what they were a few years ago. McNaught said laws restricting the use of triple trailers in some parts of Australia need to be revisited. Adding to Australia’s rail problems is the fact that many states have different rail widths, ranging from narrow gauge in some areas to standard gauge and broad gauge in others. Some standardized lines cross state borders, but in many cases, trains that operate in one area cannot be used in another because of rail line inconsistencies. Rob Noyes, commercial manager for Pacific National Railway, said rail is still the preferred method of moving grain in Australia. But he acknowledged that many challenges exist. Australia’s grain production can change significantly from year to year, meaning demand for rail service within the grain industry can be highly variable. By comparison, demand from the mining industry is more predictable and is increasing each year. In many areas, branch lines originally designed to service the grain industry are outdated and incapable of handling large loads, Noyes added. Loading times at country receival sites, especially older facilities, are also problematic, and delays at export terminals are common. That means more downtime for grain trains and lower profit margins. Grain represents 15 percent of the Pacific National’s rail traffic. “The partners in the grain supply chain really need to work together,” Noyes said. “If we’re going to (move more grain by rail), there’s got to be more silos that can load quickly and there’s got to be work done at ports.” State governments built and controlled

Australia’s rail system is moving a smaller portion of the country’s grain production than in the past. A mining boom is increasing demand for rail services and grain shippers have trouble competing. Rail companies say variable demand for rail service for grain, outdated loading facilities and delays at port are a disincentive to investment. Australia’s original rail system. More recently, however, the country has been privatizing significant portions of its rail infrastructure. Today, many railway companies that own lines do not operate trains. Instead, they sell running rights to other users. In an effort to secure more reliable rail service, bulk grain handling companies are buying their own trains and competing with other companies for rail pathways. In Western Australia, the state’s largest grain company, CBH, is spending $175 million Aus to buy 575 hopper cars and 22 locomotives. Another grain company, the Emerald Group, is also operating its own trains in New South Wales and Victoria. Andrew Hannon, Viterra’s manager of country operations in Australia, said the amount of grain delivered by road to export terminals in South Australia is now 50 percent. Some export terminals do not have rail

access, he added. Last year, Viterra collected 6.7 million tonnes of grain at its bulk handling facilities in the Australian countryside. Vicky Hudson, an official with the Victoria transport department, said steps are being taken to improve rail efficiency in the state. The government has invested $1.2 billion in Victoria’s rail network over the past four years and set up a grain logistics task force in 2011 to identify transportation issues affecting the grain industry. The task force recommended more government investment in rail, better maintenance, higher axle loads and various steps aimed at improving load and unload times at country elevators and export terminals. It also suggested a co-ordinated approach to improving grain deliveries by both road and rail. Increased road traffic is already having a significant impact on the condition of the state’s road network, Hudson said.

Proposal would end export agency | Port owners would follow voluntary code DELAIDE, Aus. — The Australian government is pushing ahead with plans to reduce its role in regulating bulk wheat exports and monitoring access at export terminals. Later this year, the government is expected to eliminate Wheat Exports Australia, an agency that has widespread support among the country’s grain farmers and is viewed by many as an industry watchdog. WEA was formed in 2008 to ensure an orderly transition from single desk grain marketing to an open market environment. The agency’s primary role was to review the credentials of new bulk wheat exporters, ensure they had appropriate financial resources and issue export certificates. The system was designed to protect farmers against companies that had no track record in marketing Australian wheat overseas. But if legislation now before parliament is approved, the WEA will be

Exporters will no longer be subject to government reviews and export certificates will no longer be required. Proposed legislation would also reduce regulations that apply to owners of Australian export terminals. Terminal owners would no longer be required to submit plans explaining how they intend to make port

access available to competing export companies. Right now, Australian port owners must submit what is called an Access Undertaking, a plan that explains how terminal space will be allocated on a commercial basis.

AUSTRALIA | GRAIN STORAGE

Farmers look to on-farm bins to boost marketing control

Grain farmer Andrew Weidemann will soon have 10,000 tonnes of bin storage on his farm near Rupanyup, Victoria. Canadian bin manufacturers are doing a brisk business in Australia, where on-farm storage now accounts for 15.6 million tonnes.

DELAIDE, Aus. — The sight of steel grain bins, once a rarity on Australian grain farms, is becoming as common as wool sheds and water tanks. Andrew Weidemann, a grain grower from the Wimmera Plains region of north-central Victoria, said the importance of on-farm storage has become more evident to Australian grain growers since the end of single desk marketing. Weidemann, who farms with his brother near Rupanyup, said his farm has been gradually increasing bin storage over the past decade. Today, most of Weidemann’s grain goes directly into on-farm storage and stays there until it is trucked to an export terminal or a domestic buyer. Bin capacity on Weidemann’s farm is 8,500 tonnes, mostly consisting of 70 tonne, 100 tonne, 120 tonne and 150 tonne silos. The brothers have also ordered two 800 tonne silos, which will bring total on-farm capacity to 10,000 tonnes, or 400,000 bushels. As well, they have three grain sheds with pitched roofs and will use silo bags for temporary harvest storage if necessary. “Years ago, you didn’t see too much on-farm silo storage at all,” said Weidemann. “We still put some of our production directly into the bulk handling system, but we just feel that on-farm storage gives us more control over our production.” According to recent figures from Grain Trade Australia, on-farm storage now accounts for 15.6 million tonnes of storage capacity in Australia.

Years ago, you didn’t see too much on-farm silo storage at all. We still put some of our production directly into the bulk handling system, but we just feel that on-farm storage gives us more control over our production. ANDREW WEIDEMANN GRAIN GROWER

Weidemann said the popularity of on-farm storage varies from region to region, depending on many factors. States that export a larger proportion of their grain are less likely to have a significant investment in onfarm storage. Capital is another factor. On Weidemann’s farm, building and installing corrugated steel bins, including ground work and concrete, costs $84 Aus per tonne for larger storage units and up to $145 per tonne for a smaller 70 tonne unit. “The bigger you go, the lower the costs,” he said. Canadian bin manufacturers are marketing aggressively in Australia, he added. John Lush, a producer from Mallala, South Australia, has also been increasing his on-farm storage capacity. Lush said grade and protein discounts imposed by bulk handling companies can cost farmers big bucks. Farmers who deliver milling wheat straight off the field often have no

idea what they are dumping at bulk handling facilities. If wheat misses a 13 percent protein threshold by one or two tenths of a percent, the farmer might be paid for only 12 or 12.5 percent protein. On-farm blending is becoming more common among farmers who want to ensure they are extracting the maximum value from their crops, Lush said. More producers tended to deliver most of their grain directly to bulk storage sites when the single desk system was in place, Weidemann added. Today, producers pay much closer attention to quality discounts and are more reluctant to leave value on the table for exporters and bulk handling companies. “Marketing in the deregulated environment has been a challenge, but I think more people are starting to get their heads around it and more people are starting to realize that storage is crucial,” said Weidemann. “I think most people have made reasonable money out of storage because it gives them the ability to minimize storage costs and capture the upside of the market.” Growers who deliver grain directly to off-farm storage sites are usually charged a flat handling fee, often around $10 a tonne. They will also pay a monthly storage fee. Stewart Gall, a producer from Moree, New South Wales, said the benefits of on-farm storage are most obvious during harvest. He said turn-around times at bulk delivery sites can often exceed two or three hours during harvest time. In most cases, that means combines are sitting idle in the field while

trucks are stuck at delivery points. “We actually put in our on-farm storage about three or four years ago to help manage deregulation,” said Gall, who plants 12,000 acres per year. “Whether that’s worked for us or not, I don’t know, but it’s definitely helped us improve our efficiencies during harvest.” More Australian grain growers are trucking their grain directly to port in an effort to reduce bulk handling costs and ensure that grain can reach export position in a timely manner. Weidemann spent time in midMarch trucking several hundred tonnes of malting barley to an export terminal at Geelong, Victoria, about 275 kilometres away. Mick Keogh, a farm policy analyst with the Australian Farm Institute, said transportation and handling costs are the biggest expenses facing Australian grain producers. Members of Grain Producers South Australia were recently told that average supply chain costs in that state, including management fees, transportation and elevation at port, accounted for nearly $82 on a tonne of wheat valued at $276 f.o.b. Weidemann said there are risks associated with on-farm storage. Carrying costs can be high, especially if stocks are carried into the next harvest season. Grain pests are also a concern. Most bins installed on Australian farms are sealed units that allow growers to fumigate their grain with phosphine. For proper results, bins should be sealed and slightly pressurized, Weidemann said.

SUPPLY MANAGEMENT | DEFENCE

Flexible, accountable system needed, says trade expert Watchdog says supply managed sectors need to improve efficiencies BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Canada’s supply management agencies must work hard to make sure the system works well and is transparent in the face of continued public scrutiny, says the system’s watchdog. Laurent Pellerin, chair of the Farm Products Council of Canada, told the Chicken Farmers of Canada’s annual meeting in March that supply management agencies must deal with distribution of quota to provinces, cost-of-production pricing formulas, quota value and public perception. They should also consider a levy system allowed under the legislation to collect money for research and promotion. Mainly, they should make sure their system can stand up to its critics. “FPCC’s mission is to work with its partners to ensure that the supply ma nag e m e nt a n d p ro m o t i o n research systems have the flexibility needed to respond to current and future challenges in a flexible, accountable and transparent manner so that they can withstand public scrutiny,” he said.

And critics increasingly are complaining that supply management hurts Canadian trade goals and raises domestic prices for poultry, eggs and dairy. The FPCC does not oversee the dairy sector.

Pellerin said rather than rely on their history and political and regulatory support, supply management leaders must be “creative and have innovative thinking so that the system continuously improves its efficiency and has the flexibility needed to address current and future challenges.” He said the chicken system must be

flexible in dealing with Alberta and Ontario’s demand for more production quota based on population growth. He said the 40-year-old Farm Products Agencies Act has a clause that “directs the agency to use the competitive advantage in allocating additional quota. Council is ready to help move this file forward.”

More processing capacity in the Maritimes means there will be more pressure to arrange interprovincial chicken movement to available plants. And despite the system’s protection from unfettered import competition, Pellerin said sound economic principles must be used to make sure that cost-of-production and price decisions are reasonable. “Stable prices that reflect producer costs and which deliver a reasonable return for producers are two reasons why we have supply managed agencies,” he said. Pellerin unveiled a new four-year strategic plan on how to keep the sector stable and protected from critics. “The chicken system needs to operate in a flexible, accountable and transparent manner that can pass the test of public scrutiny,” he told the CFC. “The current public criticism of supply management will likely continue, so the benefit of this public policy will need to be demonstrated.” His comment reflected a key part of the FPCC’s four-year strategic plan. “The case must be made that the supply management and promotion-research systems operate within reasonable parameters that are transparent and that stakeholders within the systems continuously strive to address and minimize any negative impacts or issues that arise,” says the plan.

BEEF EXPORTS | UNITED STATES

Beef exports more profitable abroad: ALMA U.S. sales at a discount | Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency says Canada must secure markets in Asia and Europe BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

EDMONTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The United States is Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest beef customer, but the Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency questions whether it is the best destination. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are importing high quality beef from the United States, averaging $5.50 a kilogram, and we are selling them beef at $3.33. You have got to ask if there is an alternative,â&#x20AC;? said ALMA board member John Weekes. Added board member Ted Bilyea: â&#x20AC;&#x153;You are backfilling the U.S. market and that means at a discount.â&#x20AC;? The U.S. accounts for 73 percent of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beef exports, and packing plants cannot afford to continue selling the product at a discount, said Bilyea. The cattle and beef trade balance dropped by $2 billion in a decade as exports fell and imports rose. Canada is still in a positive trade balance, but it is slipping. Canada could end up in a trade deficit on beef. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is a strange situation for a country that has so much grass,â&#x20AC;? Bilyea said, whose experience lies in the pork and beef processing industries. There is no growth in the North American food industr y, while expansion is apparent in emerging markets such as Asia where pork is popular. One of the agencyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mandates when it started in 2009 was finding more markets for Canadian meat products.

Weekes said the CC A has not helped because it does not promote the national cattle traceability scheme to importers. He appreciates it has not received widespread acceptance among producers, but it should have been used as a promotional tool when selling beef. Studies show consumers are interested in it and the European Union will ask for rules of origin in any upcoming free trade negotiations. The EU wants beef free of administered hormones, and using traceability could provide assurances

the product is clear of growth promotants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We seem to have something right, but we seem reluctant to capitalize on it,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The system doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to be perfect to sell well.â&#x20AC;?

Bilyea said more consumers are interested in the source of their food, and traceability could provide those answers. Full traceability can also be useful during a food recall, he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Out of the BSE crisis came one good thing,â&#x20AC;? Bilyea said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got cattle ID and a premise ID.â&#x20AC;? Dave Solverson, an Alberta rancher and CCA vice-president, said traceability is just one part of success in the international trade arena. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is a bit of a naĂŻve position to take, saying tracking of animals will enhance our sales,â&#x20AC;? he said. Canada is developing an individual

Marketing abroad That is in line with the federal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ambitious trade policy, said Weekes, former chief negotiator in North American Free Trade Agreement talks. He said the country needs to pursue agreements with South Korea and the European Union before Canadian beef and pork sales decline further. Canada has been negotiating with South Korea since 1998. The auto industry resisted the deal and negotiations further stalled when BSE was discovered in 2003. Weekes said the Canadian Cattlemenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Association was partly to blame for negotiations dragging. â&#x20AC;&#x153;CCA helped the auto industry out by saying that they wanted the negotiations with South Korea to slow down until the BSE issue was resolved,â&#x20AC;? he said. The recent free trade deal between South Korea and the U.S. may leave Canada out in the cold. There is a 40 percent duty on meat, which shuts out any supplier without a free trade agreement. These duties will fall incrementally for the next 15 years until it hits zero, which gives the U.S a greater advantage each year unless Canada can come up with a similar deal such as a duty free quota. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can already see the order books closing up on Canadian pork exports right now,â&#x20AC;? he said. A deal is also needed with Japan because the beef tariff is 38.5 percent, which can increase to 50 percent under certain conditions.

animal identification system, but it also needs a national movement document and premise ID to make it fully work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unless there is a clearly demonstrated benefit, we know the costs, but we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the benefits,â&#x20AC;? he said. He agreed that Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s traceability system is better than most of its competitors, but said other economic factors, such as the weaker U.S. dollar, are more responsible for its success as an exporter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The U.S. has tripled their exports partly because of the low dollar.â&#x20AC;?

POLITICS | ALBERTA LIVESTOCK AND MEAT AGENCY

ALMA resists political party’s push for elimination Wildrose promises to cancel | The livestock agency provides grants and oversees the legacy fund and Growing Forward BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

EDMONTON — The Wildrose Alliance party says it would disband the Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency if it won the upcoming provincial election. The agency was controversial when it was incorporated in 2009. Some producers thought it was an advanced idea to promote and support the meat industry at home and overseas, while others considered it a government boondoogle with an oversized budget.

“We have said in our alternative budget that we would cancel the Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency,” said party leader Danielle Smith. “We don’t believe in corporate welfare or direct grants to individual firms and if you look at the kind of money that is flowing through there, you have to stop it now,” she said March 19 when the party released its rural platform. “We don’t believe that is the most effective way to be able to support our producers,” she said. David Chalack, chair of ALMA since July 2010, is not worried.

DANIELLE SMITH WILDROSE ALLIANCE LEADER

“That doesn’t create fear or angst in me at all,” he said in an interview during a board meeting March 20. He describes the agency as a coordinated approach to distributing grant money and supporting new

markets for all sectors of the meat business. A L M A i s r u n by g ov e r n m e n t appointed directors who were selected on the basis of expertise each brings to the table. They are not all Albertans or producers. The agency does not lobby government but does advise the agriculture minister. “We don’t set policy, but we try and influence and we give input,” he said. It has become the go-to place for grant money and tries to avoid duplication, he added. “We are almost the sole funder for

agriculture now,” he said, second only to the federal government. Chalack said each application is well scrutinized to ensure it meets specific criteria to advance the livestock and meat business. The ALMA model could become a larger entity working with other provinces, he added. “Will ALMA grow into a broader national initiative? It could because it brings focus and it brings strategy,” he said. The agency deals with all meat industries, but beef receives the most support because it is the largest sector. All groups are eligible for help because there are crossover benefits. “When you are funding, you are looking at outcomes, not sector,” he said. Board member Cheri CopithorneBarnes said ALMA expected 200 project applications by the end of March. ALMA has contracted $84 million, which was leveraged to more than $346 million. “We are having an impact on the Alberta industry,” she said. ALMA administers $36 to $40 million a year in grants and is responsible for the oversight of the $22 million legacy fund and another $8.8 million from Growing Forward. For example, Growing Forward money helped develop improved meat patty businesses for Centennial Foods and Cargill Foods, the sole supplier of patties to McDonald’s Canada. It also helped expand a cheese factory in southern Alberta and provided money to a pet food company that uses cattle and pork byproducts. “We are more than a government funding agency. We have gone to the next step and created our own strategic applications,” she said. These are the big picture advancements working on research for feed grain development, genomics and environmental stewardship. ALMA also administers $25 to $30 million to support value-added market creation as well as research and industry development. It funded an electronic identification system for the Alberta lamb industry and supported a study on pork pricing formulas. Grant applications are reviewed by ALMA staff and are sent to one of three technical review committees. Chief executive officer Gordon Cove reviews applications and can a p p rov e p ro j e c t s w o r t h u p t o $250,000. The programs and services committee decides on requests between $250,000 and $1 million and the board reviews and approves applications worth more than $1 million. ALMA does not fund salaries, but it will pay for contract positions that are specific to a project. The provincial auditor general audits the agency each year.

PONOKA, Alta. — The Canadian Foodgrains Bank seems to bring out the best in farmers. An auction held recently at Vold Jones and Vold in Ponoka earned $55,000 to help feed the world’s hungry. “We’ve had consistent and solid support,” foodgrains bank executive director Jim Cornelius said. Farmers donated 37 cattle, 46 tonnes of 53-pound barley and two baby goats. The barley sold for $14,000, well

above market price, and the selection of mostly cull cows earned higher than average bids. The buy of the day went to VJV auctioneer Dan Skeels, who was the final bidder on a pair of kids that earned $1,800. The goats were sold eight times and the bids were donated back to the charity. About $3,600 also came in through cash donations. Similar auctions are also being held in British Columbia and Saskatchewan. Since its inception in 2001, the annual sale at Ponoka has raised

$825,000 for the foodgrains bank. Money is also earned annually t h ro u g h 2 0 0 g row i n g p ro j e c t s across Canada, from which the proceeds of grain harvests are also donated. The foodgrains bank is a partnership of 15 churches and church agencies to end global hunger. The Canadian International Development Agency matches the funds at a four to one ratio to a maximum of $25 million. The foodgrains bank has provided more than one million tonnes of food assistance to hungry people since 1983.

Yorkton creates plans to save local flour mill BY CALVIN DANIELS FREELANCE WRITER

YORKTON, Sask. — An old Saskatchewan flour mill may be getting a second chance. The Yorkton Brick Mill Heritage Society has officially formed and is beginning a concerted effort to save the structure.” Society secretary Sheila Harris said the organization is working “to come up with what we have to have to be self-sustaining.” The City of Yorkton has given the group until October to develop a plan to save the mill. The first step is to hire a history preservation planner to look at possible ways to use the mill. The study will cost nearly $20,000, and Harris said the society has applied for a grant through the Saskatchewan History Foundation. The grant would require the society to raise matching funds for a total of $25,000. Harris said the mill is a monument to the York Colony, which founded the community. The mill’s history certainly mimics that of the city. “In 1898-1900, a flour mill was built on North Front Street, now Livingstone Street, by J.J. Smith of bricks from his own brick plant in Yorkton,” says a society brochure. “J.J. Smith operated the mill for only a couple of years. Flour produced in the mill sold under the names North Star, Silver King and Universal. In 1902, John Smith sold the mill to Levi Beck, known as Yorkton’s Merchant Prince. Levi Beck marketed the flour as Northern Star, later as White Rose Flour.” The building is the last brick mill standing in the province and has also been part of the community identity. According to the brochure, in 1947, Yorkton sent princess Elizabeth and Lt. Philip a unique wedding gift — a rail car of locally milled flour to help alleviate the food shortages experienced by post-war England. The society is looking for photographs, documents and personal memories of the mill that it can use on its website or for a potential restoration project.

AUSTRALIA | WEATHER

Climate change causing upheaval Down Under Hotter, drier | Farmers forced to change practices SINGAPORE (Reuters) — Australia, one of the world’s top mining and agricultural nations, faces a quickening pace of climate change, according to a snapshot of the nation’s weather. The changes will force farmers to alter cropping strategies and miners to cope with more intense floods. The government report confirms the changing trends in rainfall and warmer temperatures across Australia, to which farmers are adapting by growing new crop varieties and adjusting planting times. Coal and iron ore miners are building bigger holding dams for flood waters, and strengthening road and rail infrastructure, while coastal communities are being told to prepare for rising sea levels. The report, compiled by the Bureau of Meteorology and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), looks at long-term climate trends in Australia. Its release comes after 18 months of record rain in the country’s east, triggering floods that ended a devastating drought. Australia is getting hotter, the pace of sea level rise quickening, the oceans warming and rainfall patterns shifting toward more rain in the summer, the report said. Each decade has been warmer than the previous decade since the 1950s, it said. Culprits include deforestation, agriculture and rising greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels. “We’re certainly seeing where the rain is falling is changing,” said Megan Clark, CSIRO’s chief executive officer. “We’re seeing more in spring and summer ... a monsoonal signature across Australia’s north and more rainfall in central Australia.… And from the agricultural point of view, less autumn and winter rain across the south.” The report is only the second joint climate snapshot, with the first released in 2010 before the start of an intense La Nina that triggered months of flooding, crimping economic growth and causing billions of dollars in insurance losses. Australia is the world’s top coal exporter, a major iron ore producer and the fourth largest wheat exporter. These sectors are all at risk from more chaotic weather. A second, weaker La Nina in 2011 brought more rain. The Bureau of Meteorology said it is coming to an end, but rainfall in parts of Australia could still be above average. La Nina is a periodic warming of the western Pacific Ocean. It normally triggers above average rain and cooler weather across northern and eastern Australia and Southeast Asia. The opposite phenomenon, El Nino, usually brings drought and warmer weather. Clark said 2010-11 stood out for the peak rain and the equally recordbreaking sea surface temperatures around northern Australia. “This consistent rise in our sea surface temperatures has been a bit surprising,” she said. “The other thing we’re seeing is when the conditions are right for

rain, we’re getting a lot of rain.” The report shows minimum Australian temperatures at night have warmed by more than 1.1 C since 1910, with most of this since 1960. As well, the rate of hot daytime temperatures, higher than 40 C, has been increasing since 1990. Sea levels around Australia’s north and northwest have been rising seven to 11 millimetres a year since 1993, which is two to three times the global average.

If predictions about more rapid climate change come true in Australia, cattle like these will find it more challenging than ever to find plentiful grazing grounds. | FILE PHOTO

AGRONOMY | CORN

Focus on growing methods, not GM Conventional crops | Breeding and agronomy outperform biotech crops, says pathologist CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — Using genetically modified drought-tolerant corn to boost global food production would be a less-effective tactic than planting conventional corn and improving agronomic practices, says a veteran plant scientist. “The technology has gotten a tremendous amount of attention; we think undue attention,” said Doug Gurian-Sherman, a plant pathologist and senior scientist with the Union of Concerned Scientists. “It is a modest benefit and a real benefit and a step forward, but it is really kind of a baby step.” Gurian-Sherman, who served on a Food and Drug Administration biotech advisory subcommittee from 2002 to 2005, said drought-tolerant corn “is going to be useful for maybe 15 to 20 percent of the areas where moderate levels of drought are pretty predictable, places like Nebraska and Kansas. “It is not likely to be helpful at all with the kinds of severe droughts that we’ve had in Texas the last couple of years. This crop is going to die just like any other corn crops under those conditions.” Companies have been racing to roll out drought-tolerant crop technologies. For example, Monsanto is conducting on-farm trials of its GM drought-tolerant corn variety this spring. Monsanto and rival seed companies have been pushing drought tolerance as a way to help increase production of key crops, particularly corn, as climate changes produce drier and warmer conditions in some growing areas. Drought last year in Texas and parts of the central United States wreaked havoc on many crops. However, Gurian-Sherman said the leading drought-tolerant corn option — Monsanto’s product — reduces yield loss by only five to six percent and only in areas of modest drought. He said he analyzed data that Monsanto submitted to regulators as part of his research. Conventional breeding has been improving yields under drought conditions by about one percent a year, on average, he said. He said GM drought-tolerant versions are inferior to conventional offerings when taking into account the number of years that GM crops take to develop, the millions of dollars spent on the research and the additional costs farmers pay for them. Gurian-Sherman said there is a dire need for more efficient use of water in agriculture, but the most critical needs are for improved irrigation methods and techniques such as mulching of soil to hold in moisture. Drought-tolerant crops don’t address water use efficiency issues, he added. He said public policy and research needs to shift direction in a way that promotes sustainable agriculture and allows for more diversity in crop selection and chemical and water use.

“Drought is incredibly important, and so going forward we need to think about ways to try to mitigate the losses from drought and prevent them from getting worse,” he said. “Biotech certainly has some successes, but if you look at the bigger picture ... breeding and agronomy continue to way outperform biotech.”

CROP SPRAYING | SAFETY

Production push raises concerns over chemical use

To feed a growing world population, we have to intensify crop production, but we can’t do so at the expense of the natural resource base. TERESA BUERKLE FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS

Responsible use | Focus over food security fuels worries over increasing use of herbicides, insecticides and fertilizer (Reuters) — Scientists, environmentalists and farm advocates are pressing the question about whether rewards of using more crop chemicals are worth the risks, as the agricultural industry strives to boost production to feed a growing world population. The debate has heated up recently, with a series of warnings and calls for government action including a lawsuit against the United States Environmental Protection Agency. Critics say they fear the push to increase global crop production is translating into mounting health and environmental dangers. As chemical use expands in some areas, agricultural chemical residues have turned up in water supplies and air samples of U.S. farming communities. The concerns are rooted in two converging trends: Growing global demand for food, fuel and livestock feed is pushing many farmers to apply more herbicides, insecticides and fertilizers to crops, hoping to boost production. At the same time, some favoured technologies are starting to lose their edge. Some growers have found they must use more chemicals to combat the weeds and crop-damaging pests that biotech seeds were engineered to address. “Production is growing,” said Pat Sinicropi, legislative director at the National Association of Clean Water Agencies, an organization of municipal water interests. “The pressure on agriculture is mounting to squeeze as much yield out of their land as possible, which is driving more and more chemical use.” Few would dispute that misuse of agricultural chemicals can harm health and the environment. The debate has focused on when that line is crossed, with industry saying U.S. regulatory oversight is already strong enough to ensure safety. “With any technology there is risk,” said Jim Borel, executive vice-president of DuPont, which has projected strong growth in sales of insecticide, herbicide and pesticide products. “People tend to focus on either the problems or worse yet the fears that people create about potential problems. But if we are going to feed 10 billion people in the next 40 years, we have to essentially double agricultural production. We all have to work together. We have to be eyes wide open around the challenges and the risks.” Those on the other side of the debate agree that increasing crop production is necessary. “To feed a growing world population, we have to intensify crop production, but we can’t do so at the expense of the natural resource base,” said Teresa Buerkle, spokesperson

for the North America office of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.

While the industry says regulation is adequate, critics say it is often lacking. They want the government

to do more in-depth examination of the impacts of the chemicals in use and change incentives that encour-

age farmers to grow chemically intensive crops. One concern is the level of nitro-

gen fertilizer runoff into water sources. A study released March 13 by researchers at the University of

California, Davis, said fertilizers and nitrates from agriculture are contaminating the drinking water for

more than 200,000 residents in California’s farming communities. That study came as a separate coali-

tion of water authority officials, pollution control administrators and sustainable agricultural groups asked

Congress to address excessive use and runoff of agricultural fertilizers in the new farm bill legislation currently being debated. The group cited data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency indicating that more than 50 percent of rivers, streams, and lakes and nearly 60 percent of bays and estuaries are impaired because of excess levels of nitrogen and phosphorus. “Nitrogen pollution is considered by scientists among the handful of most serious impacts on the environment that humans cause. It has been increasing,” said Doug GurianSherman, a plant pathologist at the Union of Concerned Scientists, a scientific policy group. “More and more scientists are speaking up.” Insecticides are also a concern. Twenty-two U.S. plant scientists coauthored a letter March 5 warning the EPA about a biotech corn that is losing its resistance to plant-damaging pests and could trigger “escalating use of insecticides.” The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), an environmental advocacy group, has taken its concerns to court, filing suit against the EPA on Feb. 23. The NRDC accuses EPA of not adequately addressing the health threats of 2,4-D. The chemical is being increasingly used to help fight back weeds that resist glyphosate herbicide. Dow AgroSciences is also seeking government approval for biotech crops engineered to survive 2,4-D applications. Complaints of ties to cancer have dogged the chemical for decades but U.S. regulators have said that research data is insufficient to make a direct link. A scientific study published in January in the journal BioScience noted that nationwide herbicide use could see a “profound increase” if the new biotech crops being developed see the same rate of adoption as Roundup Ready crops. Roundup use became so pervasive in the U.S. after the introduction of Roundup Ready soybeans 16 years ago that last summer, researchers with the Geological Survey said significant levels of Roundup were detected in air and water samples in Iowa and Mississippi. More than 80,0000 tonnes of glyphosate were used in the United States in 2007, up from 10,000 tonnes in 1992, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. Critics of 2,4-D fear a similar rise in the use of that herbicide. “EPA is dragging their feet on this issue,” said Gina Solomon, senior scientist with the NRDC. “They need to grapple with the science and the current situation where U.S. agriculture is on the cusp of the vast increase of the use of this chemical.”

GRAIN HANDLING | COMPETITION

Grain firms eye Canada, U.S. for market share Foreign acquisitions | International grain handlers look to expand operations globally to ensure reliable grain supplies CHICAGO/WINNIPEG (Reuters) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading grain traders have enjoyed an unparalleled advantage for decades: their smaller North American competitors lacked the flexibility and diversity of a global operation and their foreign rivals lacked access to the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest and most stable exporters. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about to change. Large U.S. and Canadian grain companies that have come up for sale are offering Asian and European traders like Glencore and Noble Group a rare chance to secure a foothold in the market. They are jumping on the opportunities in hopes of expanding operations and profits in the low-margin, high-volume business of grain handling, creating unprecedented new competition for traditional players on their home turf and the largest wave of consolidation in the industry since Cargill bought rival Continental Grain in the late 1990s. The urgency to operate in the United States or Canada, which account for more than one-third of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s corn and wheat exports, has grown because of increasing global demand for crops. Other producers, such as Argentina and Russia, have frustrated grain traders in recent years by curbing exports and bringing in disappointing harvests. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you really want to have an origin for corn, wheat and soybeans, the U.S. is the place,â&#x20AC;? said Harold Reed, chief operating officer of The Andersons, an Ohio-based grain and ethanol company. International traders, well aware of demand pressures, â&#x20AC;&#x153;see the U.S. and Canada as the one sound anchor that just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ever go away,â&#x20AC;? Reed said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The government is reliable, the export program is reliable, the weather is usually reliable.â&#x20AC;? Glencore, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 1 commodities trader, saw a large value in Canada, striking a $6.1 billion deal last month to buy the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest grain handler, Viterra. The end of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nearly sevendecade wheat marketing monopoly has enhanced its appeal for global traders, and Viterra owns valuable assets in Australia. C Mitsui & Co., Marubeni Corp. and Hong Kong-based Noble are jostling to buy Gavilon, valued at $5 billion, according to sources. While the move to open Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wheat and barley markets to competition is a strong incentive to enter the sector, senior executives said it is the dramatic inversion of the global market that is spurring the race for assets and access. A boom in Asiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population and increased use of corn to make biofuel have tightened global grain supplies, making demand the primary driver of agricultural markets instead of supply fluctuations. That makes it even more critical for companies to be able to secure enough crops from reliable suppliers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a demand-driven dynamic rather than a supply-driven dynamic and people need origination, raw material to meet consumptive demand,â&#x20AC;? said Curt Vossen, president of Richardson International Ltd.

Vossenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s company will acquire 23 percent of Viterraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grain handling assets and certain processing assets in North America as part of Glencoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deal. Companies are also on the hunt for acquisitions to improve efficiencies at a time when industry leaders have been hurt by volatile global markets. ADM made the first broad workforce reduction in the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history this year and saw a sharp drop in last quarterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earnings. Cargill has also cut jobs and said the quarter that ended Nov. 30 was its

worst since 2001. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are looking to integrate to gain more economies of scale and value for shareholders,â&#x20AC;? said Doug Hart, president of Hart and Associates, a Toronto-based consultant to agricultural companies and government bodies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The more market share you have in an area, the more ability you have to control your margins and pricing.â&#x20AC;? Takeover targets include privately held French firm Louis Dreyfus, a major industry player, and family companies Paterson GlobalFoods

and Parrish & Heimbecker, which have medium-sized agricultural networks in Canada, said Alberta agriculture analyst Ron Frost. Dreyfus has considered mergers with companies including Glencore and Singaporean rival Olam. Paterson and P&H have not yet expressed an interest in selling. Meanwhile, farmers hold some valuable cards in the dozen independent, share-owned grain terminals that dot the Canadian Prairies, amounting to 2.6 million tonnes of annual volume.

It would not be surprising to see industry leaders attempt to consolidate further with smaller acquisitions, analysts said. The C WB, which is losing its monopoly, could also conceivably bid for handling assets, using government borrowing guarantees for the next five years, Frost said. Even small outlets, such as family owned agri-chemical company Morris Grain in Minnesota, have received takeover offers, although manager DeWayne Greiner said the owners were not interested in selling.

GRAIN MARKETS | PRICE FORECAST

FAO expects high grain prices to continue BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) — World grain prices should remain “very firm” over the near term as demand from Asia exceeds forecasts and dry weather cuts into supply, the senior economist of the United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organization said. South American corn and soybean yields took a beating from drought this season, while China’s rapidly growing middle class continues its love affair with beef steaks. The shift in diet has held strong in the face of the country’s economic slowdown, underpinning demand for corn and soybean meal used to feed cattle. “Demand is definitely growing faster than what we had expected, while supply ended up being less than we expected,” FAO senior economist Abdolreza Abbassian said. “You put these two factors together and it explains what’s happening today with prices globally,” he said. “In the near term — this month and next — we are going to still see very firm prices. What happens after that depends on crop development and the weather.” As South America harvests its 201112 soybean and corn crops, U.S. and European growers are heading into seeding season. “A few months ago we were expecting slower growth in demand,” Abbassian said. “Macroeconomic factors were making us believe that demand in feed use, for example, would grow at a slower pace. But I think we always underestimate the growth in emerging countries, in Asia in particular.” World food prices hit records last year, helping to spawn the Arab Spring revolts that toppled the governments of Egypt, Libya and Tunisia. Prices have since fallen but their upturn in the first two months of 2012 is raising inflation concerns. “The fact that the prices of certain crops are approaching the peaks of last year tells you something about market direction and sentiment,” Abbassian said. The United Nations had expected soybean prices to start falling by this point in the year. But the market remains nervous about early-season dryness in Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. “Unpredictability in prices is increasing,” Abbassian said. “If the Chinese feel that corn prices could still rise, they may surprise us and buy more, which would send prices up. Considering the agitation in the market, this could lead to panic buying. “If we would have had this conversation a few weeks ago, I would not have even considered this as being in the cards,” he added. “The events of the last few weeks and the downgrading of crop estimates in South America, Argentina in particular, have definitely added fuel to the upward trend in prices.” Argentina expects a 2011-12 corn crop of 21.2 million tonnes, down from initial projections of up to 30 million. Soybeans are forecast by the government at 44 million tonnes versus an original estimate of up to 53 million tonnes. Argentina is the world’s top exporter of soybean meal, soybean oil, and in the biofuels sector. It is also the third-biggest soybean exporter and No. 2 supplier of corn, after the United States.

Winterkill forces EU farmers to reseed wheat, barley

LONDON, U.K. (Reuters) — Farmers in Western Europe are planting corn and spring barley this spring as they reseed fields that suffered significant crop losses this winter. In France, corn should gain the most acres because its seeding period is just beginning, analysts said. Crop damage is most severe in eastern France. Preliminary estimates suggest 1.24 to 1.48 million acres of winter soft wheat and barley could have been hit in France. “The malting barley and (corn) sectors are very well developed in eastern France and the market is rather good for these two products,” a grain trader said. French corn producers group AGPM expects the corn area in the country to grow by two to three percent this year from last year. The corn area was four million acres in 2011. “Sowings are starting timidly in the earliest regions and should certainly be generalized next week if weather conditions are favourable,” the group said March 26.

warned that the country’s crop will suffer significant winterkill this year but gave no estimate of the area to be reseeded. Market estimates are that 10 to 15 percent of wheat plantings may have suffered damage, a feeling underlined by brisk seed sales that caused shortages in some areas. “Sales of spring seeds have been very strong and seeds have even sold out in some areas,” a German analyst said. “Imports of seed have been made

from Italy, Britain and Austria. I think farmers will turn to (corn), spring barley and spring wheat. Rapeseed seems to have come through the cold snap in better shape and will probably not need much re-sowing.” The spell of dry weather that has spread across Western Europe has led to good early planting progress in Britain. “The conditions are ideal for spring cropping, so we should be well ahead of the average,” said Home-Grown Cereals Authority analyst Jack Watts. The area planted with spring crops is likely to be little changed in Britain, with a fall in England set to be offset by a rise in Scotland. Watts said favourable weather and strong forward prices boosted the area planted with winter crops in England. “That is going to restrict the amount of land available for spring cropping and even though we have quite strong forward barley prices, even the spring barley area will likely fall in England,” Watts said. Spring barley is the most important spring-planted cereals crop in England and Scotland. Approximately 780,000 acres of spring barley were planted in England last year and around 650,000 acres in Scotland, with the gap set to narrow this season. The planting of winter crops in Scotland this season was disrupted by wet conditions, increasing the potential area for spring crops. The dry weather that has helped plantings to progress may ultimately pose a threat to crops if it continues well into April, Watts said. Spanish farmers expect to plant substantially less corn in Aragon, where irrigation reserves have fallen after the driest winter in at least 65 years, which may increase the country’s heavy dependence on grain imports. They expected plantings to be roughly the same elsewhere for corn, the most important crop planted in spring. Farmers almost finished sowing wheat and barley in the autumn and winter. “With current water stocks, it is hard to think (corn) and rice plantings in affected areas will be more than 20 percent of what they are in the current campaign,” a report from the Mercolleida agricultural exchange said of the Aragon region. Aragon typically produces one-fifth of Spain’s corn crop, which came in at 4.2 million tonnes in 2011-12. In Italy, dry soil in non-irrigated areas in the main growing regions of Lombardy and Veneto could also trigger delays in corn seeding, traders said. Italy, a major grain importer in the European Union, has planted more wheat for the 2012 crop and is expected to seed more corn this spring, encouraged by high prices, said ISMEA, the country’s agricultural research centre. Soft-wheat plantings are estimated to have risen 17 percent to 1.53 million acres, while corn plantings are expected to rise by about 2.6 percent to about 2.5 million acres, a level unseen since 2007, ISMEA said.

VITERRA | TAKEOVER REVIEW

ONTARIO BUDGET | AG PROGRAMS

Sask. sets up review for Viterra takeover May 7 due date | Third party review is expected to cost $125,000 and will be in addition to two reviews set up by the federal government BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

The Saskatchewan government will rely on an independent review of the proposed Viterra takeover to decide if the deal is in the best interests of the province. Premier Brad Wall said March 29 that Informa Economics will conduct the review at a cost of $125,000. The report is due May 7 and will be released to the public. Wall said the government has expertise to draw upon in the agriculture, finance and justice ministries, but third party counsel is also important. “We just want to make sure we’ve looked at every angle,” he told reporters, saying it is the responsible thing to do. Glencore announced March 20 it intended to buy Viterra for $6.1 billion and then divide the assets with Richardson International and Agrium. The deal will undergo two federal reviews, one to examine the foreign takeover aspect and the other to look at competition issues. Although the province has no formal standing in either of the reviews, Wall said the government is obliged on behalf of taxpayers to make public what its analysis shows. He said his rural caucus has heard from a few farmers concerned about competition, mainly over Agrium’s takeover of 232 of Viterra’s 258 agriproduct retail locations. The company would have 297 locations if the deal proceeded as proposed.

The Informa review will identify the risks and benefits of the deal to grain industry employees and farmers and will examine competition in grain handling and crop inputs. It will also look at how the deal would affect government revenues, the province’s strategic position in the international grain industry and its reputation for having a positive investment climate.

Wall said Viterra jobs that moved to Calgary could move back to Regina because Glencore has said the Saskatchewan capital will be its North American head office. He expects the federal reviews to take several months. NDP leader John Nilson said the premier should stand up for Saskatchewan and the analysis is a step in the right direction. However, he said it comes too late. “This kind of a review relates to what should have been a plan before to deal with the consequences of the elimination of the Canadian Wheat Board,” he said.

Ontario program kept despite deficit budget Risk management program | Provincial government renews call for feds to contribute 60 percent of costs BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Despite efforts to reduce its $16 billion deficit, the Ontario Liberal government has vowed to continue funding the only Canadian costbased provincial risk management program this year. The provincial government also renewed its call for the federal government to contribute its traditional 60 percent of farm support program costs. Ottawa has not responded directly, but agriculture minister Gerry Ritz has previously rejected RMP cofunding because he argues a cost-of -production-based program to support farmer income could be challenged as trade-distorting. The March 29 federal budget didn’t include an RMP contribution. Mark Wales, president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, said farmers are grateful the RMP will be funded despite a recommendation against it by former bank vice-president Don Drummond, hired by the provincial government to recommend cost cutting. “Despite the province’s tough economic realities, OFA is encouraged the Ontario government has preserved the RMP for 2012,” he said. And although Ontario budget papers suggested funding for RMP had been frozen, Wales said the government has refuted that suggestion. The RMP’s budget will be $100 million, as it was last year, but the program is demand driven. Farmers buy insurance based on their assumption of prices and costs in the year ahead. In 2012-13, farmers for the first time will have to pay premiums for coverage, a cost that Wales said could total

$30 to $50 million. “The program is not capped and that has been confirmed to me,” he said. “The program for 2012 will go as it is designed. But it may not pay out $100 million because it is driven by demand and right now prices are pretty good across the board, so it might end up paying out $50 million. Who knows?” He said the cost will also depend on how many farmers decide to buy into the program. They have until the end of April to decide. This year, the rules require that the producer be in AgriStability and have a premise identification number. If they do not sign up this year, they will have to sit out for two years. “Growers have to take all of those things into account before they decide if they are in or out,” he said. Wales said the OFA will continue to argue that the federal government has an obligation to co-fund provincial programs. “They (the provincial government) reminded the federal government that they need to remain committed to funding 60 percent of risk management programs, so it was good of them to mention that in the budget,” he said.

SOIL CONSERVATION | AWARD

Sask. farmer recognized for conservation efforts Switch to minimum till, then zero till started 30 years ago, after watching topsoil blow away in the wind BY CALVIN DANIELS FREELANCE WRITER

YORKTON, Sask. — More than three decades of conservation farming were recognized recently when Fred Phillips received the Conservation Farmer of the Year award. The Saskatchewan Soil Conservation Association award is based not just on farming techniques but also a willingness to participate in education and promotion. Phillips said he has always been willing to do that. “I was on the board of directors (of SSCA) in the mid-’80s for two terms.” As well, he served on the local rural municipality council and worked with the Agriculture Development and Diversification Board. Phillips said being proactive in promoting conservation farming came natural to him. “It was the way we were raised, to be part of the community and to get involved in the community.” Phillips said moving to zero till agriculture was a family effort. His parents, Jim and Elsie, Uncle Ray and brother Martin were all involved in the decision to make the change. “It was the spring of ’81. It was a terrible spring. The land was blowing everywhere,” he said. “As a family, we sat down and said, ‘that’s never going to happen again.’ ” They started out with minimum tillage but evolved into zero till over the next three or four years. “The land hasn’t blown since.” Phillips said the family remained dedicated to the process, despite the occasional setback. “I don’t think we ever really considered going back to the old conventional way,” he said. “But we made lots of mistakes. We’d end up out there trying to harrow down our mess.” When things did go wrong, Phillips said it was his father and uncle who “probably took the heat.” It wasn’t an easy transition from conventional farming techniques. “It was learning by trial and error,” he said. “The first few years there was not the equipment there is now.” As well, glyphosate still cost $30 per acre. It helped that a neighbour was also converting to zero till. “So we could bounce ideas off each other.” Finding the right equipment was difficult, he added, using as an example their Haybuster 1000 drill. “It was the only true zero till machine that was available, and you could buy around here,” he said. Phillips said much of what is now taken for granted in zero till agriculture was not yet developed. “It was really experimenting to see what worked.” Dealing with trash cover from harvest was a problem in the early years. “The big heavy harrows were just coming out at the time,” said Phillips, so farmers were having to make concessions to avoid too much straw. “We never grew oats because our combine wouldn’t chop it (the oat straw),” he said. They had to find attachments or

make modifications to their combines to spread straw over a wider area to alleviate the trash problem. “The new equipment is so technologically advanced,” he said. He said chemical application is hard work when relying on foam markers or dragged tires to mark out sprayer coverage. “Now you punch in (on the GPS system) what you want to do and just drive up and down the field,” he said.

SILAGE | HANDLING

Dozer blade gathers forage under wings Degelman’s Pile Driver built to move forage STORIES BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

Degelman Industries has designed a new dozer blade specifically for pushing forages in the pit. “It’s designed to give the operator more blade and more control in the pit,” said Paul Degelman of his company’s new Pile Driver. The centre section is 10 feet wide. A four-foot wing at each side can be independently controlled to run at virtually any angle. Each wing has independent lift and tilt. “You can tuck one wing in and set the other side at any angle you need,” Degelman said. “You can put the tractor tire right on the edge of the wall to get the best packing all across the bunker.” Even in fresh silage, the Pile Driver maintains 55 inches of working height. As well, Degelman said it folds up narrower than the tractor for transit. He said no blade model is ever good enough. The engineering staff is continuously looking for weak points and making upgrades. “It’s an ongoing challenge to make the blades stronger and capable of doing more work. And the sub-frame has to be sleek so you’re not dragging silage down the hill when you back up. Plus, farmers no longer want to cut and weld. They want bolt-on subframes that let them get into and out

of the blade as fast as possible. “The sub-frames we have now for centre-articulated tractors get installed once and stays in place. Our Quick-Attach D-Lock mounting system lets the operator back out of the blade in one minute and get back into it again in two minutes, without help and without tools.” He said all designs are based on the horsepower, weight and potential traction of the tractor for which it’s intended. For example, the engineers know that a QuadTrac has almost no slippage. “We put the steel where it’s needed so the operator can do a full 600 horsepower of work in the silage pit. If you spend the money for 600 horsepower and ultimate traction, then you want a blade to make full use of the investment.” Degelman makes it clear that the Pile Driver is intended for silage, not for bush clearing or roadwork. “We have other blades for those jobs. Our Extreme Duty dozer blade is an industrial blade that lets your 4x4 do anything a D6 Cat can do.” The Pile Driver lists for $40,000, about the same as the Extreme Duty blade. All five of the Pile Drivers that the company has built have been sold to custom forage harvesters in California. For more information, contact Degelman at 306-543-4447 or visit www.degelman.com.

DOZER BLADE | TRACTOR USE

Adding dozer blade to tractor can be controversial decision Farmers who need a dozer blade at the front of their centre-articulated tractor have historically been at odds with tractor manufacturers. Over the years, there have been issues with the fine print, warranty, liability and a few lawsuits. Tractor builders say that a centrearticulated tractor is a pulling machine rather than a pushing machine. Pushing is the job of a single frame tractor. Farmers, on the other hand, argue

that they have a large investment in a machine that has both the weight and the power to perform a lot of work. But they can’t make the most of their investment unless they can push silage, bush and snow. “In the 60 years of our family’s business, we’ve put more than 55,000 blades on tractors,” says Paul Degelman of Degelman Industries. “Tractor engineers never like it when someone puts a blade on one of their tractors, but the reality is that

< Performance

your big tractor becomes a pretty nice tool with a blade on the front. The blade lets you get more work out of your investment.” Degelman said the debate seems to be subsiding as newer generations of tractors are designed to accept a blade. Some manufacturers send Degelman samples of each new tractor model so engineers can work out the best mounting system. “But it’s still somewhat of an issue. The dealers want to sell big 4x4 trac-

tors so guys can push silage, but they don’t want the responsibility if something goes wrong. “If something breaks, is it the tractor’s fault or is it the blade? Or is it just a bad combination of things. So far, we’ve been pretty successful putting blades on those big articulated 4x4 tractors. It’s more than 50 percent of our business and there have been very few problems.” Dairy producers and feedlot operators have traditionally used regular

dozer blades for filling silage feed bunkers. The dozer blade is adequate, but not perfect. Big heavy tractors are required to provide sufficient packing, but they sink in the silage. Sinking in silage means losing effective blade height in the bunker. The other problem is the amount of ground clearance that is sacrificed because of the front sub-frame. A dragging sub-frame limits a tractor’s efficiency in other farm operations.

Renewable fuel future starts with ag engineers New machines, new crops | More attention to new fuel sources BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Agricultural engineers need to start thinking about new machinery for a new era of agriculture, they were told at a North American conference earlier this year. Allen Rider, former head of Case New Holland’s farm equipment division in North America and now head of the U.S. renewable fuel initiative 25 x 25 Alliance, wants to see a quarter of American fuel supplied by renewable sources by 2025. However, he said not enough research is taking place in a sector on which he believes the American economy’s recovery from recession hinges. “We’ve been working since 2004 with this goal, about eight percent per year growth in renewable fuels, and we are more or less on track, but some of the goal posts are moving,” he said during the American Society of Agricultural and Biotechnical Engineers meeting in Louisville, Kentucky, this winter. “The next few years are ones that

will benefit from significant innovation, the kind that comes from engineering.” He told North America’s top agricultural engineers that they hold the keys to a successful future for renewable fuel. “This is about more than the agriculture business in North America. This is about our security as a society. We need access to fuel, food and a sound economy. And we can grow it,” he said. “This is a $700 billion industry.… Ethanol now employs 400,000 people. It didn’t exist a decade or so ago.” He said American energy use is continuing to rise, up four fold from 2004, while renewable sources, despite increasing in volume at a steady rate, make up only eight percent of supplies. “In 2004, renewables were six percent, with half coming from hydro. I don’t see us building any new dams in the future,” he said. “Eleven percent comes from wind, and that will grow. It’s up 500 percent since 2004, but it is localized with half coming from Texas and all of it needs government support. It can’t grow in

most regions.” His organization says wind powered electricity is also crippled by a shortage of high capacity power lines in the West and the High Plains. “Solar needs more public support than wind.… Geothermal has potential, but so far it’s only one percent of the solution,” he said. “So where are the new sources to come from? Fields, that’s where. It will be biomass.” Rider said the future of farm machinery and farming will be found in biomass production and collection. “Straw, cobs and stover, new crops and their production tools. And the technology to efficiently convert biomass into liquid fuels. This is the time to be looking to the future of technology,” he said. Steven Mirshak of DuPont agrees with Rider’s assessment of future

He said at a meeting in Des Moines, Iowa, last month that cellulosic biofuel blending will grow from almost nothing in 2012 to 80 billion litres by 2022, which will require as much as 200 million tonnes of cellulosic feedstock. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that the cellulosic fuel industry will require 117 million dry tonnes of perennial grasses by 2030 and a doubling of the currently available 76 million tonnes of agricultural residue. Meeting this requirement would potentially rely on more than half of North America’s farmland, he added. Mirshak feels the starting point for early production will focus on existing grain ethanol facilities, where cellulose can be added to the production stream. Pioneer is working with one such g ro u p, L i n c o l n w ay E n e r g y , at Nevada, Iowa. “There’s a lot of technology yet to be developed, but this is where the future of fuel will come from,” he said.

FERTILIZER | NH3

Variable rate made simple, just follow directions Capstan N-Ject | System makes it easier for farmers intimidated by variable rate technology to match map data with fertilizer injection rates BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

Adopting variable rate technology can be frustrating, especially transforming prescription map data into product that is injected into the soil. The more hoops the data jumps through, the more difficult it becomes, and the greater the odds of a miserable and frustrating spring. However, an injection system that obediently follows instructions can simplify that challenge, said Garnet Welykholowa, a Capstan Ag Systems representative from Craven, Sask. He said many producers are ready to get into variable rate, but the technology is intimidating. “These are the guys buying the large new generation drills designed to be compatible with variable rate,” he said. “And they’re all buying with the intent to go variable rate, but maybe just not quite yet. These are the guys showing the most interest in the Capstan N-Ject systems.” Welykholowa said the Capstan Pulse Width Modulation solenoid removes barriers between prescription maps and actual fertilizer injection. “The solenoid is either on or off, so product either flows or does not flow. There’s no in between and there’s no variation in the size of the orifice,” he said. “With Pulse Width Modulation, the duration of the pulse, or the time that the solenoid is on, depends on signals from the controller. “You never change orifices or nozzles. Controlling pulse width means you can vary the rate of product in a range of 25:1. That means there’s no need to get out of the cab to waste time changing orifices.” The 25:1 range applies to the N-Ject for anhydrous ammonia and for the N-Ject LF for liquid fertilizer. Welykholowa said Pulse Width Modulation appeals to more than just the variable rate crowd. Section control is the other main benefit. Wider drills are driving the need for sectional control. Overlap in the headlands or around potholes wasn’t critical with 40 foot drills but becomes a major efficiency factor in 60 to 90 foot drills. Welykholowa said some drills now have as many as eight sections. He said the N-Ject for anhydrous ammonia functions in much the same way as the N-Ject LF for liquid fertilizers. Product comes through the block, metered by the valve, and then travels to the shank. “If the controller suddenly calls for section one to be off, the N-Ject closes all solenoids for that section. It takes 1.2 seconds before the anhydrous stops flowing out that shank. So that’s pretty close to being instantaneous. “With NH3, the system pulses three times every second, so when you talk about variable rate and precision, it is very precise. And it’s pretty quick.” Capstan says the flow of anhydrous in the N-Ject and the flow of liquid fertilizer in the N-Ject LF is retained in the lines all the way down to the knives so that there is instantaneous

flow when the solenoids are triggered. Welykholowa used the example of a farmer applying 25 gallons of product per acre at five m.p.h. “The prescription map suddenly calls for 40 gallons. Here’s what happens with the N-Ject LF,” he said. “The Pulse Width Modulation system gets the signal and increases the length of the pulses, so 40 gallons now go down.” Welykholowa said some people

don’t understand the Pulse Width Modulation concept. “There’s an idea out there that we change the number of pulses per second. That’s false. We only change the length of each pulse. The normal pulse length is 3/10 of one second. We can control that to make the pulse longer or shorter. That’s how we control the rate so precisely.” For more information, contact Welykholowa at 306- 527-1384 or visit www.capstanag.com .

N-JECT VERSUS CONVENTIONAL NH3 APPLICATION Kansas State University compared the accuracy range of N-Ject technology to conventional knife technology in NH3 application. Target rate for both applicators was 150 pounds of nitrogen per acre. Conventional Technology = 22 % COV

Capstan N-Ject Technology = 6 % COV

COV is the coefficient of variation. It measures row-to-row variability of nitrogen that actually got applied. A high number is bad. A low number is good. Conventional:

Capstan:

50 percent of rows recorded between 125 and 175 lb. N/acre

50 percent of rows recorded between 144 and 156 lb. N/acre

50 percent of rows either lower than 125 or higher than 175 lb. N/acre

GPS service expanded Is your tractor ready for the field? Cellular modem correction globalized INSIDE MACHINES BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The rise of cellular corrected navigation tools has expanded the precision possibilities for producers. Trimble has added its version with the GPS and GLONASS enabled correction service, which the Colorado company calls Centerpoint RTX. Us i n g t h e T r i m b l e D C M- 3 0 0 modem, the system delivers better than four centimetre accuracy in real time. The system offers similar performance to a real time kinetics system, which uses a reference base

station to get its correction. Patricia Boothe of Trimble said the system fills out the company’s offerings, which include Omnistar, VBS, VRS, HP, XP and G2 correction systems. The cellular system requires the DCM-300 modem and a cellular data plan from a local provider. It is compatible with the Trimble CFX-750 and the FmX displays and the AG-372 receiver. The system covered a large portion of North America when it was first released last year. Australia was added next and then the rest of the globe this winter.

HENRY GUENTER

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines, but first a word about maintenance

here are details to look after before starting that tractor that has been stored all winter:

• Loosen all the drain plugs. There is bound to be moisture at the bottom of every housing, and if you don’t drain it, where does it go? It mixes with the oil and shortens the life of every gear, bearing and hydraulic component. If you have not been doing this, it might be a good idea to send a sample for oil analysis. • If the fuel has not been moved for three months, it will sometimes cause poor starting, rough running and low horsepower just for a day or so. • You can either dump the fuel or use diesel fuel conditioner to improve response and get your horsepower back.

“It comes through for me every time.”

There’s one herbicide you can always count on.

• Change the outer air filter. This should be done every year. If the inner one is dirty, throw them both away. It’s a small investment for a big return. Research at Iowa State University has shown that clean fuel and air filters typically improve horsepower by 3.5 percent, which is 10 found horsepower on a 300 h.p. tractor. More importantly, it means you can throttle back a little and save fuel once operating in the field. • Check the outside axle bearings if the tractor has lots of hours on it. Take the weight off the wheels and see if the axle bearings are loose. If so, it’s time for repairs before the wear gets serious. • Check that the high idle is set properly, especially on older tractors. • If you have had a power hop problem, it might a good idea to do some of the preliminary work to improve that issue while the tractor is at home. Make sure the tire pressure is right. The outer tire should not be more then three pounds different from the inside one. The front wheels turn faster than the rear ones on a front-wheel assist tractor. It is a good idea to make them slip first. To ensure this takes place, raise the pressure as high as the maximum rated in the manual and lower the pressure on the back to the minimum. This lowers the pulling point on the machine, which adds weight to the front end. This also lowers the hitch and might require resetting the seeding unit, depending on the drill or cultivator hitch’s design. • Check the batteries. Put a charger on them and top them up. There is nothing more frustrating than batteries that fail when you are otherwise ready to run. If they don’t check out well, put them on augers and buy new ones. • If the machine is a few years old, think about how much fun it would be to replace a water pump when you are seeding. The pump relies on lubricant in the fluid, and if it has broken down, it won’t be long before the pump will, too. Is it time for a change? • Go over the manual with employees. They could probably use a quick refresher on the machine and there are good operational, maintenance and safety points in there that might help keep the tractor a season or two longer.

Wireless ART

Air Seeder Rate and Blockage Monitor

Evolution of the ART Monitor The WIRELESS ART Rate and Blockage monitor takes the uncertainty out of air cart operation. You will know if your seeding system is having any of these common problems: • Seed Blockage/No Seed Problems • Rate Problems

Use your Google ® Android ® Phone to keep track of our air seeder operation with an ‘App’. (Windows Phone, Apple and Blackberry ‘App’s are in development) No wires to the cab means quicker startups, and no worries about towing the seeder with the monitor harness! The WIRELESS ART works with today’s large single Shoot and Double Shoot seeding systems. Up to 240 runs can be monitored on double shoot systems (separate seed and fertilizer runs). Use the WIRELESS ART to confirm your calibration for seed and fertilizer rates using the Seed Rate Wizard. Seeds per acre (or pounds per acre) and Fertilizer pounds per acre are displayed.

Letter of Appreciation We appreciate the convenience of the process and transaction dealing with Doug Rue, of Freshwater Land Holdings Co. Ltd., November 2011. We sold land shared by my sister, and Aunt. Being that we were selling from 3 different locations, it didn’t slow up the process any. The sale was made without one in-person meeting. We are a rural farming family, who sold land conveniently, with shared owners, all by emails and minimal travel to town, only to obtain witness signatures. We feel really good about the process, the sale and our straight-forward business interaction with Doug. Overall, it was a positive experience. Thank you, Marlo & Lee Marelli

POULTRY | ANIMAL CARE

U.S. egg producers reach compromise on cages Changing the industry | New legislation will require nest boxes, perches, scratching areas and more space for laying hens BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

RED DEER — Proposed legislation in the United States to change the way laying hens are raised was a compromise between farmers and animal rights activists, says a farm leader. Gene Gregory, president of United Egg Producers, said the organization, which represents 95 percent of American egg production, decided to end its costly adversarial approach and reach a compromise with the Humane Society of the U.S. “Egg producers have probably been a leader in animal welfare for 10 years, but even though we did that, it wasn’t good enough,” Gregory told the recent Alberta Farm Animal Care Association conference in Red Deer. The legislation, if passed in June,

will force egg producers to change the way they do business over the next 15 years and introduce nest boxes, perches, scratching areas and more space per bird. In exchange, the humane society has agreed to stop undercover videos and pursuit of state legislation to force producers to change their practices. The legislation will eventually require the use of enriched cages that provide 124 sq. inches per bird instead of the current standard of 67 sq. inches. There are 285 million laying hens in the U.S. and nearly all are kept in conventional cage systems. “This is virtually rebuilding an entire industry,” Gregory said. He figures it will cost $4 billion to retrofit barns. Other groups are lobbying against the legislation, including beef, pork,

sheep, dairy and turkey producers. They argue it sets a precedent by legislating production practices. The proposed legislation would supersede state laws, including those passed in Arizona, California, Michigan and Ohio. California producers must still eliminate conventional cages by 2015, but the requirement also applies to the sale of all eggs and egg products sold in the state. Because California imports 40 percent of its eggs, the requirement will apply to out of state suppliers as well as California producers. Gregory said fighting state ballot initiatives and arguing with animal welfare groups was costing egg producers money. Campaigning against California’s 2008 Proposition 2 to ban battery cages cost the organization

more than $10 million. Egg farmers thought the proposition would fail, but animal activists introduced disturbing videos about conditions in chicken barns across America a few days before the vote. “One thing I learned from this, no matter how much you educate the consumer about economics, about the science, about the farmers, what is most impressionable is the day they go to the election. The thing they remember about the election is those despicable videos,” Gregory said. The compromise legislation is an example of changing trends among consumers and corporations, said marketing consultant Charlie Arnot of the Centre for Food Integrity in Kansas City, Missouri. People do not understand the scale

and technology involved in modern agriculture, in which producers may use confinement, medications and growth promotants. “This is not farming in the minds of many,” he said. As well, non-government organizations are approaching major food companies to force changes on their suppliers. “NGOS have really discovered that global brands can do what governments cannot,” he said. Corporations are being asked to question what is happening on the farms that supply them. “When they come to a corporation with these issues, it becomes an increasing challenge for corporations. It is like using gunpowder against the weakest link in the company’s value chain,” he said.

Organic group to appeal ruling over GM seed patents Monsanto not worried | The company says it is ‘confident about our legal and practical stance’ over its technology patents KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Reuters) — A group of U.S. family farmers says it will appeal the dismissal of its lawsuit against Monsanto challenging the company’s patents on technologies for genetically modified seeds. The organic farmers and seed dealers say their industry is at risk from Monsanto’s growing market dominance. “Farmers are under threat. Our right to farm the way we choose, and to grow pure organic seed and healthy food on our farms for our families and for our customers, is

under assault,” said Maine organic seed farmer Jim Gerritsen, president of the Organic Seed Growers and Trade Association, which is the lead plaintiff in the case. The group sued Monsanto in March 2011. U.S. District Court judge Naomi Buchwald threw out the case in February, criticizing the groups for a “transparent effort to create a controversy where none exists.” The group of more than 50 organizations filed its notice of appeal March 28, seeking review by the U.S.

Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The lawsuit challenges Monsanto’s patents on its GM seeds and seeks to prohibit Monsanto from suing farmers or dealers if their organic seed becomes contaminated with the company’s patented biotech seed germless. Monsanto spokesperson Thomas Helscher said the company was aware of the filing of an appeal. “We remain confident about our legal and practical stance,” he said. Monsanto is the world’s largest seed company and a leader in devel-

oping and marketing GM soybeans, corn and other crops. The company has developed a reputation for zealously defending patents on its GM crops, which include patented Roundup Ready soybeans, corn and cotton. The crops are favourites of U.S. farmers because of their ability to withstand herbicide treatments. Monsanto filed 144 patent infringement lawsuits against farmers between 1997 and April 2010, and won judgments against farmers it said made use of its seed without

paying required royalties. Many U.S. farmers have said their fields were inadvertently contaminated with Monsanto’s GM seeds without their knowledge. The issue has been a topic of concern for not only farmers but also companies that clean and handle seed. The court ruling said there was no likelihood that Monsanto would pursue patent infringement cases against organic farmers, who have no interest in using the company’s patented seed products.

RUSSIA | GRAIN EXPORTS

Russia hikes prediction for grain exports VORONEZH, Russia (Reuters) — Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin says Russia could export almost as much grain in the coming crop year or even match the 27 million tonne level forecast for 2011-12, in which exports have been running at record levels. Russian grain exports are expected to reach 25 to 27 million tonnes in the 2012-13 crop year, Putin said during a meeting on spring seeding. Putin said the crop would likely be flat compared to the 2011-12 level, when it stood at 94 million tonnes. Russia’s first deputy prime minister, Viktor Zubkov, who is in charge of agriculture, reiterated a forecast of 26 to 27 million for the current agricultural year. “And if we are able to reach these volumes (in 2011-12), and I think it’s absolutely achievable, we will become the second-largest wheat exporter in terms of volumes after the U.S.,” he said during the meeting in Voronezh, Russia. Russia’s agriculture ministry said recently it expected grain exports to decline to 25 million tonnes in 2012-13. SovEcon agricultural analysts said Russian grain exports could exceed official estimates of 27 million tonnes in 2011-12 as ports thaw and return to normal operations, new export outlets emerge, state stocks are sold and demand from Iran continues. Meanwhile, Russian wheat export prices declined further in late March on the back of weak demand and competition from neighbouring Kazakhstan, analysts said March 28. Some analysts have expressed concern that poor autumn and winter crop conditions in Russia’s key southern wheat export regions have threatened yields and could reduce Russia’s export potential in the coming crop year. Zubkov said 94 percent of the country’s winter crop is in good condition, more than in previous years. Total area seeded to spring grain will reach about 125 million acres this year, about 740,000 acres more than last year, Zubkov said. The total sown area, including winter grains, will reach 193 million acres, up 2.5 percent, he said.

GM WHEAT | PEST CONTROL

GM FOOD | LABELLING

GM wheat repels insects, attracts predator

Critics push for GM labels

L O N D O N , U. K . ( R e u t e r s ) — Researchers in England are conducting field trials on a genetically modified wheat line that strikes fear into aphids and attracts a deadly predator to devour them. The wheat emits a pheromone that aphids release when they are under attack to create panic and prompt the insects to flee, said John Pickett, scientific leader of chemical ecology at Rothamsted Research in eastern England. It also attracts tiny parasitoid wasps to provide a second line of defence for crops by laying eggs in the aphids. “(It) eats the aphids from the inside out so it takes out the population on the crop,” Pickett said. “We are providing a totally new way

Labelling opponents say it would be costly

of controlling the pests that doesn’t rely on toxic modes of action.” The wheat has been modified using a gene found in peppermint plants, he added, although the smell was more like Granny Smith apples and too faint to be detected by humans. Pickett said the field trials, at Rothamsted’s research facility in Hertfordshire, used a spring planted variety of the wheat cultivar Cadenza. He said the approach could eventually be used to protect other crops and flowers from aphids. Pete Riley, campaign director for GM Freeze, which opposes GMOs, said he had several concerns and believed there were better alternatives for controlling aphids.

“There are natural alternatives with which, if you design your farm right with plenty of cover and food for predators and parasitic wasps, you can control aphids pretty effectively and that has been demonstrated in the U.K.,” he said. “We don’t see any need for this technology other than it is potentially more profitable to do GM than to tell farmers how to create the right habitats on their farms.” Riley said the new wheat could contaminate non-GM varieties if it was produced commercially. He also questioned its effectiveness. “We feel it is likely, if it is used very widely, that aphids would eventually get habituated to the chemical and not take any notice of it,” he said.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Reuters) — Critics of genetically modified crops are making new demands for U.S. government mandated labelling to identify food on grocery shelves that contains GM ingredients. Labelling drives in the United States are underway on both state and federal levels. Several U.S. consumer groups recently released a survey and the results of a petition drive that they say show overwhelming consumer support for labelling food containing GMOs. “People believe they have a right to know what goes into their bodies,”

said Mark Mellman, a public opinion pollster and consultant. The Mellman Group survey said 91 percent of 1,000 consumers surveyed in February support labelling GM food, while five percent oppose such a move. Support was nearly equal among Democrats, Republicans and independents. The survey was commissioned by a group called Just Label It, which includes organic farm groups, the medical and retail industries and faith-based groups. Similar surveys issued recently have also shown widespread support for labelling as consumers express increasing concern about overall food safety. The Just Label It group, which filed its petition with the Food & Drug Administration in October, claims to have more than one million signers. The 180-day comment period that precedes a formal FDA response ended March 27, and petitioners say the petition process allows them to pursue “judicial review” if the FDA fails to act. “Should it be denied, the next step we would consider would be litigation,” said environmental attorney Andrew Kimberly, who wrote the petition. “The GMO issue is finally getting traction in the U.S., in the form of an overwhelming preference for labelling among consumers across the political spectrum,” said Ken Cook, president of the Environmental Working Group, a non-profit public health and environment advocacy organization. An FDA spokesperson said its position on labelling GM food is rooted in the premise that there is no material difference in food containing ingredients from GM crops and food made from conventional crops. “Companies are welcome to label their products on a voluntary basis as long as it’s truthful and not misleading, and it doesn’t imply that it’s somehow better than the conventional counterpart,” said FDA spokesperson Siobhan DeLancey. The GM labelling debate is also active in California, where a consumer group has submitted what it calls the California Right to Know Genetically Engineered Food Act to the state attorney general. Backers of the measure must obtain more than 500,000 signatures by April 22 to get it on the November ballot. They say that in addition to giving consumers information about what they are eating, labelling would also allow health professionals to track potential adverse health impacts of GM food. The question of safety is separate, though related, from the issue of labelling, Mellman said. “Calories aren’t unsafe ... but people want to know what they’re ingesting,” he said. A recent study by the Grocery Manufacturers Association said 80 percent of packaged food contains GM ingredients. Agricultural biotech seed companies oppose labelling, saying it misleads consumers and there is no safety concern with GMOs. As well, labelling opponents say mandatory labelling would be costly, increasing food prices for consumers, costing taxpayers for enforcement and triggering costly litigation.

HEALTH CARE | REPORT

Billion dollar health-care fix falls short: report Senate committee conclusions | Report largely ignores changes in rural health-care delivery BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

It’s your decision. As an animal science technology or crop technology student, you’re part of a student team that makes production and management decisions and puts them to the test on Lakeland College’s 1,700 acre Student Managed Farm - Powered by New Holland. You’ll participate in meetings, set goals, follow a budget, and do some of the hands-on work all with the goal of running a proﬁtable and sustainable agri-business. Then you’ll present your results to industry.

It’s a powerful learning tool.

A Senate committee report has concluded that the billions of dollars committed by Ottawa in 2004 to “fix health care for a generation” has fallen short of its goal. The expensive 10-year commitment by then Liberal prime minister Paul Martin has not produced the “transformative change” in healthcare delivery that was promised. However, the report largely ignored a major area of the failure — the lack of significant change in rural healthcare delivery. The report from the Senate social affairs, science and technology committee did recommend that Ottawa and the provinces work with the health-care system “to reduce inequities in health human resources such as rural and remote health care, vulnerable communities and aboriginal communities.” That was the main reference to rural health care in the 91-page report, although there was major emphasis on northern and aboriginal issues. Quebec doctor John Wotton, president of the Society of Rural Physicians of Canada, said the Senate report did not recognize the lack of progress in closing the rural-urban gap in health care, although he supported the recommendation to concentrate on health-care worker numbers in rural areas. “Except for some nibbling at the problem from the edges, there hasn’t b e e n a s u b s t a nt i a l a m o u nt o f improvement,” Wotton said.

Except for some nibbling at the problem from the edges, there hasn’t been a substantial amount of improvement. JOHN WOTTON SOCIETY OF RURAL PHYSICIANS OF CANADA

Medical graduates still generally do not head to rural areas to practice, and the trend to specialized medicine is making it worse because rural areas need general practitioners. The federal government announced several budgets ago that beginning this year, medical graduates and nurses willing to work in rural areas would see forgiveness of some of their accumulated student loans. Wotton said a glitch in the program is that students must begin paying off their loans when they graduate, even though they do three years of residency, typically at urban hospitals, before they begin to practice. “It means that by the time they are ready to set up practice, they already have paid a chunk of their debt and that reduces the incentive to go to the rural,” he said. “It really is a structural problem in the program.” He said rural residents continue to have unequal access to the healthcare system, much of it the result of the tendency of health-care personnel to work in urban areas where amenities and compensation can be greater.

RED DEER — Alberta Farm Animal Care has received $320,000 in federal money to develop a national livestock transportation training program. The money comes from the Canadian Agricultural Adaptation Program and was presented at the annual AFAC meeting in Red Deer March 22. The foundation developed a course in 2007 for truckers, receivers and handlers on the proper care of livestock and poultry during shipping. Courses have also been offered to first responders who must deal with

accidents involving livestock. The course offers specific training for cattle, hogs, horses, sheep and poultry. Nearly 2,000 people have been trained. AFAC developed its training programs based on provincial regulations but has offered the course throughout North America. Executive director Lorna Baird said the new funding allows it to fit the regulations and environments of other jurisdictions. The association is working with the national farm animal care council, Canadian Meat Council, commodity groups and other provincial councils to develop a broader program.

BEEF | TREATMENT CONCERNS

‘Pink slime’ beef production prompts plant closures in U.S. Ammonia treated beef | Cattle futures drop as Beef Products Inc. halts production CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — Falling U.S. cattle futures are partially being blamed on concerns that publicity surrounding ammoniatreated beef, dubbed “pink slime” by critics, would lead to lower meat demand. Chicago Mercantile Exchange live cattle futures faced large drops last week and their largest monthly drop since May 2011 in the wake of news that Beef Products Inc., the top producer of ammonia-treated beef, halted production at three of its plants this week, while Cargill slowed production. Futures were also pressured by poor beef exports. The BPI closures were hailed as a victory by activists who had argued that the product was unappetizing, but tempered their jubilance due to the temporary loss of about 650 jobs at a time when the economy was showing signs of recovery. Rich Jochum, corporate administrator for the South Dakota-based company, said that the temporary closure could become “a permanent suspension.” “This is a direct reaction to all the misinformation about our lean beef,” Jochum said. The company shut down operations on March 26 at its plants in Amarillo, Texas, Finney County, Kansas; and Waterloo, Iowa. The closures are because of the recent outcry by food activists over its lean, finely textured beef, Jochum said. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and industry experts say the meat was safe to eat. Nancy Huehnergarth, executive director of New York State Healthy Eating and Physical Activity Alliance, a statewide group aimed at promoting healthy eating and changing food policy practices, said: “It’s never a happy victory when you hear people are losing their jobs. But if BPI had been transparent about the process of their products, we would not be at this point right now.” Two of the biggest U.S. supermarket operators, Safeway and Supervalu Inc., have said they will stop buying the ammonia-treated beef. McDonald’s Corp. stopped using USDA-approved ammonia-treated meat in its hamburger products last summer. Also known as lean finely textured beef, the product has drawn criticism from food activists because of the use of ammonia hydroxide in its manufacture. “The demand in the market will hopefully resume,” Jochum said. The company’s facilities in Iowa and Kansas produce about 350,000 pounds of product a day, while the Texas plant puts out nearly 200,000 pounds. The company’s largest plant, based in South Sioux City, Nebraska, will remain open and in operation, Jochum said. In 2001, BPI emerged as a key player in the ground beef industry after federal regulators approved the firm’s process of using ammonia in beef processing to remove foodbourne pathogens such as salmo-

nella and E.coli O157:H7. The product is made out of scraps and fatty trimmings that, for years, typically had been sold off to make pet food or cooking oils because it was too difficult to remove the meat and was somewhat susceptible to contamination. In general, BPI uses a heat and centrifuge process to melt the fat, collect and mash the meat, and spray ammonia hydroxide on it to remove possible bacteria and pathogens.

The final product, which is formed into blocks, frozen and shipped in boxes, is relatively low in fat and often used as a cheap filler. The phrase “pink slime” was first used by a former U.S. Department of Agriculture microbiologist, Gerald Zirnstein, who used the term in a 2002 e-mail to co-workers after having toured a BPI plant. The e-mail was later released to the New York Times as part of a Freedom of Information Act request.

BEE STUDIES | INSECTICIDE

Studies conclude insecticide affects bees mortality Neonicotinoid | One study indicated it interferes with bees’ homing system BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Two new studies, published late March in the journal Science, indicate low doses of insecticides interfere with bees’ sense of direction and the insect’s ability to reproduce. In two separate experiments, researchers in Britain and France studied the interaction between bees and neonicotinoid pesticides, one of the most popular insecticides in the world, used on cereals, fruits, vegetables, legumes, oilseeds and other crops. Almost all canola and soybean seed used in Western Canada are treated with neonicotinoid but it is not clear how much residue remains in the plant. On vegetable and other plants, the insecticide is sprayed on leaves. “Treated colonies had a significantly reduced growth rate and suffered an 85 percent reduction in production of new queens compared to control colonies,” the researchers noted in the Science paper. “Given the scale of use of neonicotinoids, we suggest that they may be having a considerable negative impact on wild bumblebee populations across the developed world.” The two studies provide fuel for environmental groups and beekeepers in the United States, who are calling on the federal government to ban neonicotinoids. In March, beekeepers and environmentalists filed a petition, with 1.25 million signatures, asking the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to ban clothianidin. They claim the body of scientific evidence proves

THE STUDY SHOWED COLONIES TREATED WITH NEONICOTINOIDS HAD AN the insecticide is harmful to bees. Jeff Pettis, lead bee researcher for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, said there must be a balance between bee safety and efficient crop production. “You’ll hear a fairly strong cry that we’ve got to ban these things,” he said. “It’s happened it several countries, more so in Europe. But I don’t think that’s the answer.” One solution might be limiting the use of neonicotinoids on crops that are attractive to bees, Pettis said. Of the two studies, Pettis said the results of the French experiment aren’t unique. Other studies have demonstrated that pesticides negatively affect bees’ homing abilities. But the British study is noteworthy, he said.

85 percent “The bumblebee study was quite significant in that I think they used fairly realistic field doses,” Pettis said. “Those bumblebee colonies, at the end of the season, couldn’t produce new reproductives for the next phase of queens, in particular, for the next season. That was pretty striking. If you had that happen one or two seasons in a row … you’d have a massive decline in the bumblebee population.” Bayer Crop Science, which manufactures imidacloprid and other neonicotinoids, said the British experiment was flawed because the doses in the lab were higher than bees’ exposure to pesticides in the real world. But that criticism is flawed, Pettis said.

DROP IN QUEEN PRODUCTION

“Bayer said those doses were high. I don’t think they were.” From a broader perspective, insecticides aren’t solely responsible for an increase in bee mortality around the globe, Pettis added. Other factors, like varroa mites and viruses, are also killing bees. “There’s more direct evidence that pesticides are having an effect. It’s playing more of a role,” he said. “Do I think it is the dominant factor in all of pollinator decline? Probably not, but it’s a contributor.” In one study, scientists with the French National Institute for Agricultural Research attached minuscule microchips to honeybees to monitor the bees’ movement. The scientists dosed one group of bees with thiamethoxam, a neonic-

otinoid insecticide, before releasing the bees and tracking their flight. Bees exposed to the pesticide were two to three times more likely to die away from the hive, compared to a control group. The chemical may have interfered with the bees’ homing system, the researchers said, preventing the insects from locating their hive. In the British study, led by entomologists at the University of Stirling in Scotland, researchers treated colonies of bumblebees with imidacloprid, a neonicotinoid registered for use on more than 140 crops in 120 countries. After the bees were exposed to the neonicotinoid in the lab, the bumblebees were released to fly around and collect pollen for six weeks.

ONTARIO AGRICULTURE | PRESERVATION PLAN

Ontario farmers take action to retain livelihoods Promote industry | Farmers near Toronto have seen land swallowed by urban development

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

M I LTO N, O n t . — Fa r m e r s i n Ontario’s Golden Horseshoe area, which reaches from Toronto south to Niagara, are promoting a plan to save and expand the area’s lucrative food sector. In a way, it is a fight for survival. The Golden Horseshoe’s agriculture and food industry has an estimated economic impact of more than $12 billion annually, but it has often been overlooked as an economic engine. It is under constant pressure from urban expansion, competition and a declining processing sector. Thousands of producers farm one million acres of some of Canada’s best farmland, producing $1.5 billion annually in farmgate receipts. But for years, they have been under siege from urban encroachment, soaring production and land costs, myriad and multi-layered municipal, regional and provincial regulations, a shrinking processor sector to buy their produce and a lack of government support and recognition. The 10-year plan was launched in March to promote the sector and convince government to support the industry and simplify and unify regulations between jurisdictions. “There were a lot of regulations being imposed on farmers from many municipalities with no thought given to how they affected the competitiveness of the industry,” said Huttonville apple grower Nick Ferri, who chairs the Greater Toronto Area Agricultural Action Committee. “From water use to nutrient management and land use, it was a growing problem.” The result was a farmer-led effort to create a blueprint that would see farmers, processors, municipal planners and politicians co-operate to keep the sector healthy.

PETER LAMBRICK GRAIN FARMER

“In our overall area, there are millions of mouths to feed and lots of agriculture,” said Peter Lambrick, a Milton-area grain farmer who has been a driving force in the effort and is chair of the action plan steering committee. “What we needed to do was go before councils to say that we’re

here and we’re staying. Make our life easier.” Governments have responded by promising more uniform and less chaotic regulatory demands. In turn, farmers have agreed to recognize that they have to work more collaboratively with regulators and processors, as well as accept their responsibility to keep the sector healthy and growing. “Farmers have to be willing to comply with sensible regulations,” said Ferri. “They have to realize that processors are bottom-line oriented and they need guaranteed supply at affordable prices if they are to survive. Farmers obviously have a role to play there.” The seeds of the plan began more than a decade ago with surveys that showed farmers in the counties surrounding Toronto had farmgate receipts larger than some provinces. They farm on some of the most productive land in Canada, within a short drive of the largest consumer market in the country and yet competition from developers makes the land prohibitively expensive. Farmland has been gobbled up for urban expansion, and regulations from multiple governments weigh the industry down. The 2005 provincial decision to impose a green belt in the area galvanized farmers’ sense that they had to make their presence felt. It restricted use of 1.8 million acres of privately owned farmland “to safeguard the quality of land in the Golden Horseshoe in anticipation of continuing population growth and urbanization.” The result is a plan that includes: • promoting local food as part of a health strategy for Ontario residents • making it possible for farmer immigrants to get into the business of producing crops to fill the growing ethnic food market • working with governments to create tax policies that make longterm land rental easier and • having a senior official in each regional municipality to promote agriculture and agri-food and help operators navigate the rules “I think this will be successful if we can make it easier to sustain and expand operations that attracts new farmers, our next generation or new immigrants,” said Ferri.

Producers play an integral role in determining which animals best fit the BSE surveillance scheme. | WILLIAM DEKAY PHOTO BSE | TESTING

BSE samplings fail to meet test target Provincial sampling under par | Industry must maintain surveillance to reduce risk, says CFIA BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Canada is still meeting its BSE surveillance targets, but the provinces with the two largest herds are falling behind. That concerns the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, which sets the targets and answers to the international community. The agency has met with industry and provincial representatives to discuss how to meet the targets and remind producers of the importance of testing. The minimum annual target is 30,000 tests across the country, but each province has a target based on the adult cattle population. The CFIA says Alberta should contribute 10,000 samples a year, while Saskatchewan should submit 6,800 to 7,800. However, the numbers have been

far below the targets for the last three years. Saskatchewan producers submitted 4,447 samples in 2009, 3,212 in 2010 and 3,200 projected for 2011. Alberta submitted 6,765 tests in 2009, 9,739 in 2010 and a projected 7,000 for 2011. Dr. Keith Lehman, animal health program manager for CFIA in Western Canada, said Canada’s trading partners haven’t yet expressed concern, but the industry should keep an eye on the numbers. “The surveillance is a very important part of our OIE risk categorization,” he said of the World Organization for Animal Health. The OIE now considers Canada to be a controlled risk country. For that status to change to negligible risk, the country must not have had a positive case for at least 11 years following the birth date of the last positive case. The last confirmed positive cow

was born in 2004, which means 2015 is the soonest Canada can move to negligible risk status. That is also the date when animals born after the 2007 enhanced feed ban start to enter the testing system. Lehman said an effective surveillance program is critical when Canada applies for a status change and says there hasn’t been a positive case. “They could say, ‘yeah, but you haven’t been looking very hard,’ ” he said. Dr. Gerald Hauer, Alberta’s chief veterinary officer, said the number of tests is important, but so is getting the right kind of cattle within that number to prove the testing is meaningful. The OIE introduced a point system a few years ago to indicate the value of a tested animal. “That cow that’s either under 30 months or a healthy cow at slaughter actually gives very little value to the surveillance,” he said.

The highest value cow would be four to seven years old and displaying neurological signs. “That cow gives you anywhere between 700 to 1,200 points, where a healthy cow at slaughter quite often gives you zero or .01,” Hauer said. Animals most at risk for the disease are those older than 30 months that are dead, down, dying or diseased or those exhibiting clinical signs of BSE. Lehman said producers play an integral role in determining which animals best fit the surveillance scheme. They have valuable information about their cattle and whether BSE might have been responsible for their deaths. Rob McNabb, operations manager at the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association and chair of the Canadian Animal Health Coalition, said producers may not be submitting samples because older, healthy cows that

can be loaded for transport are worth money right now. As well, the beef herd has shrunk. “The number of animals that would fit into the profile of what would be appropriate for testing, there are fewer of,” he said. Mc Nab b s a i d s o m e q u e s t i o n whether the 30,000 target is still appropriate, given the size of the herd, but in the meantime testing has to continue. “We’re going to work with CFIA and the province to communicate and promote that for the good of the industry, it’s still worthwhile,” he said. The CFIA’s BSE surveillance program reimburses cattle owners $75 for each sample submitted. The veterinarian submitting the sample also receives $100 for collecting it. Hauer said Canada isn’t in immediate danger of losing its current OIE status because the tests are considered on a rolling seven-year average.

FORAGE INDUSTRY | STRATEGIES

Raising the profile of forage touted

Forage industry expansion eyed

More than half Alberta’s ag land is forage STORIES BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

OLDS, Alta. — Forage may be one of the most underrated crops in Alberta. A new report estimates that the direct and indirect economic value of the forage industry in Alberta is $2.1 to $3.8 billion. Stephanie Kosinski, a forage specialist with Alberta Agriculture who wrote the report, said the direct value of native range, hay and grass and legume seed and indirect benefits such as erosion control, water purification and wildlife habitat make forage one of province’s most valuable crops. In 2006, Statistics Canada estimated that 28.5 million acres, or more than half of the province’s agricultural land, was in forage. “We really need to start putting a value on it,” Kosinski said. “It should be right up there with other crops.” Instead, forage, hay, seed production and grassland seem to be the forgotten crops, said Don McLennan, chair of the Alberta Forage Industry Network, which formed recently to promote the forage industry. “It’s never been recognized how important it is and how many acres and what its value is.” McLennan said he hopes publishing the report will help people realize the value of the industry. “It’s really important to quantify it in standpoint of acres and value,” he said. “This will highlight the value of it. We have to work together to have a better handle on our industry.” Kosinski made the following observations in her report: • unlike cereals and canola, there are not a lot of statistics collected on forages

• domestic forage seed sales are $23.8 million • export forage seed sales are $36 million • southern Alberta has the largest intensive leaf cutter beef production in North America. Alfalfa seed sales are estimated at $13.5 million and leafcutter bee sales another $2.5 million • Alberta produces an estimated 7.7 million tonnes of forage worth $620 million domestically and $4 million for export • the compressed timothy hay market is estimated to be worth $78 million. Eighty-eight percent of Canada’s compressed hay is processed in Alberta • processed alfalfa cubes and pellet exports are valued at $21 million and another $3.7 million in domestic markets • an estimated 635,000 acres of greenfeed are harvested annually and valued at $91.5 million • an average of 660,000 acres of silage are harvested each year and valued at $25.8 million • the value of straw as cattle feed is estimated to be $77 million • native range land is worth $163 million • tame pasture is estimated at $186 million • Alberta’s 46 sod farms have 9,402 acres with $30 million in receipts • Kosinski estimates the direct value of forages to Alberta at $1.5 to $1.6 billion. “A lot of people don’t recognize value of forages.” She said forages also provide erosion control and act as a filter for surface water. They also provide a place for wildlife related activities.

Research dollars needed | New forage group wants more focused approach OLDS, Alta. — Forage producers plan to identify priorities for expanding their industry. Members of the newly formed Alberta Forage Industry Network want to focus on key areas of their industry rather than using a scatter gun approach to deal with issues. With memberships as the only form of funding, the group hopes to make the organization relevant to governments and forage producers as a way to attract funding. Livestock producer Lyndon Mansell said attracting government and industry dollars for research is key to the industry. “It’s hard to attract enough people to get into forage research because it isn’t sexy,” said Mansell, who would like to see regional forage testing trials similar to pulses, cereals and oilseeds. “It takes time and funding and it has to become a priority. The nature of forage research is it takes time.” Agriculture Canada forage researcher Surya Acharya said forage research was previously based on maximum inputs for maximum production. Little research has been done on looking at minimum inputs to provide maximum production. “There are different things we can try, but it is all long term and it will require funding,” said Acharya. Figuring out the best way to trans-

port hay is also needed, said Alberta forage specialist Grant Lasik. Canadian producers missed out on lucrative sales to drought-stricken Texas because most hay is put up in large, round bales. “There are opportunities to sell hay to Texas, but it’s not being shipped south in 1,200 pound round bales,” said Lastiwka. Russell Mellow with hay exporter Wilbur-Ellis of Lethbridge said forage producers need to identify their markets before seeding forages. His company receives plenty of

calls from farmers wanting to sell excess hay, but it’s the wrong kind and in the wrong form. “We’re desperate for more hay, but it’s got be something we can use. Round bales are out for us,” said Mellow, whose company buys high quality hay in large or small square bales. AFIN chair Don McLennan said it will take patience to get their organization started. “We have to start proving ourselves and why we’re important and why we have a value,” said McLennan.

BISON | MANAGEMENT TOOL

Bison data collected to enable benchmarking Producers compare performance | ‘It’s all about improving the performance of the industry,’ says bison association official BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

PONOKA, Alta. — Bison producers now have key performance benchmarks to measure their herds. A Saskatchewan Bison Association study collected data from 19 producers on their cow-calf, backgrounder and finishing operations and included information on herd profiles, p ro d u c t i o n c o s t s, i nv e s t m e nt requirements and other key production factors. Terry Kremeniuk, executive direc-

tor of the Canadian Bison Association, said bison producers need information to see how their herd and management practices stand up against other producers. “It’s a way you can measure your own herd against benchmarks to improve your practices,” Kremeniuk told the Alberta Bison Producers’ annual meeting. Producers can see if their mortality rates, average weaning weights, cost per pound and days on feed are higher or lower than the benchmark herds.

“It’s all about improving the performance of the industry.” For finished animals, the average number of days on feed with herds less than 100 head was 244. The average number of days on feed in herds of more than 100 was 196. In the backgrounder measurement, the average total cost per pound gained for herds with less than 100 bulls was $1.65 per lb. For herds with more than 100 bulls, it dropped to $1.09 per lb. Information about cost of gain and

days on feed is readily available for cattle but not for bison. Kremeniuk said the benchmark study is also useful for bankers, who need information about basic bison costs. “The industry is growing and requires capital and financial institutions want information about the industry, and this provides them with additional information that could be helpful to them.” Kremeniuk said the industry recognizes the data isn’t perfect, but the information will become more accu-

rate as additional producers make their production data available. It’s hoped another 23 producers will be added this year. “We want to share the progress and repeat it again next year and end up with a good system of benchmarks for all producers,” he said. “We know it’s going to take time to get this information. Once we have it and stratify it by size of operation, individual producers can compare their operation with the benchmarks that we put together as the result of the study.”

t’s funny, the things that people notice about you: tall or short, smiling or scowling, overweight or underweight, crisply dressed or sloppily dressed, the colour of your skin or your eyes, what you have on top of your head. There’s more to the list I suppose: glasses or not, moustache or beard or scruffy or clean shaven, long hair or short hair or no hair, ears that stick out or ears that tuck in, big nose or sharp nose, strong chin or no chin. The list just keeps going. If I were to pick three things about me that are most often noticed, it’d be my height, my smile and my cowboy hat. They’re all mostly genetic for me. My frame came from my six foot mother and my 6 foot, two inch father. Those who knew my mother say I got my smile from her. She used to tell the story that when she was born, she had no mouth, so her mother told the doctor to just cut one for her from “here to here.” But the doctor thought she said from “ear to ear,” and so became my mother’s broad smile. And the hat, well, you can pick one up in a variety of stores, but, for me, I got that tradition from my dad. Cowboys wear cowboy hats, just like baseball players wear baseball caps and green berets wear, well, green berets. Dad was a cowboy, a real one and a good one, and at least a couple generations before him were too. There’s a saying, “all hat and no cattle.” But Dad and I, we were, “hat and cattle,” or “hat justified because of cattle.” And horses too. Riding, roping, raising a few colts and then training them as they grew older kind of went with the broad brimmed

lids atop our heads. Father and son relationships can be tumultuous, nonexistent or perfectly matched like a good team of work horses, but with one older horse and one younger horse hitched alongside to learn how to pull. Dad and I were the well matched team in our relationship. So it would be no surprise to those who watched me grow up to know that I would emulate my father in every way I could, including the hat. Treat people with kindness, especially the very old and the very young. Have a healthy at t i t u d e t ow a rd hard work and those who work hard. Keep your word and honour a handshake deal because, rich or poor, honesty was a trait you’d be known for regardless of how many coins you had in your pocket. Those are a few things that came from under Dad’s hat, and I’ve tried to tuck them under my hat, too. Sure, the hat would come off from time to time. We never slept in our hats. Dad wasn’t a stern man, but if you kept your hat on while eating or at the supper table, he’d knock it off your head. It came off in church, at times of prayer, for the flag, the national anthem and the pledge of allegiance. The hat would come off when you met a lady. Maybe it was just a matter of “truth in advertising” to let the ladies know that the handsome cowboy they thought they were meeting was just another average balding male with a receding hairline. I don’t presuppose much about folks when I meet them from how they look or what they wear. It’s always best to start a conversation and learn firsthand. And, I suppose, that’s how we’d all prefer to go through life. So, when someone notices me, tall, smiling, wearing that cowboy hat, and says, “so what’s up with the hat?” I have to say, “have you got a minute?” Because it’s not just something I picked up in a store.

ABORTIONS | DETERMINING CAUSE

Appropriate samples, information necessary for abortion diagnosis ANIMAL HEALTH

JAMIE ROTHENBURGER, DVM

Submit detailed information along with the fetus and placenta to the laboratory

t’s January and I’m heading to a farm call. When I arrive, the cow is down and already aborted a fetus. The farmer smiles at me and says, “you’d better check to make sure she doesn’t have another one, since you’re already here.” I observe the size of the cow and I’m acutely aware of the diminutive length of my arms. One advantage to being petite is I can use both arms to manipulate a fetus while my more substantial colleagues are limited to one arm at a time. Half an hour later, the cow is in the barn’s head gate. I’m up to my left armpit and sure enough, I feel another set of feet. As I check for orientation, I consider possible reasons why this cow was aborting. At about five months gestation, the cow is considered to be in the second trimester. Most abortions previous to this gestational age go unnoticed and turn up as open cows. Cows abort for many reasons : infectious agents, toxins, stress and congenital malformations. As a diagnostic pathologist in training, I am most likely to see cases of infectious abortion submitted to the diagnostic lab. Obvious congenital malformations such as inside-out calves, while interesting, are less likely to be submitted because the cause is obvious and they tend to affect individuals rather than the herd. In cases of multiple abortions, close co-operation between the producer, veterinarian and pathology lab are necessary to reach a diagnosis. If submitting samples to the lab, it is important to provide the most complete, fresh fetus possible. In abortion outbreaks, submitting multiple fetuses also increases the chance of a diagnosis. The placenta is another essential component. Some infectious causes make only detectable changes in the placenta. While a whole placenta is best, even portions can sometimes provide the necessary sample for detecting the cause. Freeze the fetus and placenta if there is a significant delay between when they are discovered and when they are submitted. This prevents the tissues from rotting and environmental bacteria from overgrowing. Producers should do this even if they aren’t sure at first if they will pursue diagnosis. Provide the following information with the samples: number of abortions, herd size, feed type, vaccination history, approximate gestational age, whether it is cows, heifers or

both affected, are placentas retained and are the aborting females sick. The exact cause of infectious abortions are rarely seen with the naked eye during an autopsy, but collecting bacterial cultures and tissue samples f o r m i c ro s c o p i c e x a m i n a t i o n increases the chance of determining the source of abortion. Many tissues are searched for signs of disease under the microscope, such as pus, bacteria, dead cells and fungi. Based on this information, bacterial cultures and tests for diseases such as bovine viral diarrhea can be

done to nail down the cause. Once a diagnosis has been reached, management interventions such as vaccinations can be implemented. Back in the barn, I applied the calving chains and extracted the second fetus. The cause of abortion was not determined in this cow and luckily it was the only one in the herd to abort that year. I can’t emphasize enough that if you find an aborting cow, save the placenta, too. Jamie Rothenburger is a veterinarian practising at Crossfield, Alta.

While healthy calving outcomes are the norm, producers with cows that abort need to follow procedures to determine the cause. | FILE PHOTO

NAME Two of Canada’s biggest pulse processing firms have felt the sting of Europe’s financial crisis. A year that began full of optimism ended in bitter disappointment for Alliance Grain Traders Inc. “The 2011 year would be categorized as among the most difficult the global pulse industry has ever faced,” company president Murad Al-Katib said during a conference call announcing AGT’s most recent financial results. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the fourth quarter of 2011 were $9.2 million, down from $15.03 million the previous quarter despite a 21 percent increase in sales. Net debt for the year ending Dec. 31, 2011, is more than double what i t w a s t h e p re v i o u s y e a r a n d accounts receivable has risen $36.6 million in the same time frame. Al-Katib estimates the company lost $3 to $5 million of EBITDA due to customers defaulting on sales contracts. The European banking crisis of 2011 has had a bigger impact on AGT than the U.S. banking crisis of 2008 because European banks are more active in emerging markets, where many pulses are consumed. Tighter credit availability has resulted in diminished liquidity for AGT’s customers. The situation has been exacerbated by currency volatility in all the major importing markets and political unrest in the Middle East and North Africa. “This uncertainty has contributed to importers significantly lowering their buying activities, leaving local market stocks in the low or relatively depleted states,” said Al-Katib. “The global economic headwinds have become a significant factor in our business.” Joel Horn, president of Legumex Walker Inc., used the same terminology to explain his company’s disappointing fourth quarter results. “These headwinds are affecting the entire industry, but we believe we are well positioned to ride them out,” he said during a conference call with reporters and investment analysts. The European financial crisis, currency fluctuations, political instability and a strengthening Canadian dollar have all hurt sales. “These factors contribute to an environment where buyers have been reluctant to purchase additional product,” said Horn. The company posted EBITDA of $2.7 million for the quarter and a net loss of $400,000 for the abbreviated year. The company was only in existence for 171 days in 2011.

AGT’s sales revenues were up quarter-on-quarter because of higher prices for Australian commodities as well as for beans, chickpeas and pasta. However, profits fell as sluggish demand for core prod-

ucts caused the company to sell at lower margins to keep plants running. The company was forced to process unfamiliar crops such as flax and canaryseed at its Canadian facilities to make up for flagging lentil sales. It also processed more peas, which is not part of Alliance’s long-term strategy. “We don’t want (those crops) to be the main dr iver of our assets because we are a value-added processing company,” said Al-Katib. Margins have also been constrained by pushing product into the Middle East and North Africa to make up for slumping sales to Asian customers, who have been handcuffed by liquidity issues and currency constraints. Al-Katib is convinced there will be a return to more normalized buying activity in the second half of 2012 as credit and currency markets improve and potentially lower crop supplies in India and Turkey are confirmed.

“I’m confident we have better days ahead for AGT,” he said. Horn echoed that sentiment. “We think many of these factors are transient,” he said. AGT recently received an extension for its $130 million senior secured credit facility from a consortium of three banks, which AlKatib said is a show of faith in AGT from the financial community. The credit facility will assist AGT with its sales program. It continues to explore ways to reduce its reliance on North American production. The company wants to expand its presence in India by acquiring processing, warehousing and distribution assets in that country. “We’re looking at India very seriously,” said Al-Katib. Legumex Walker has a new $107 million secured credit facility that will be used to refinance debt, support working capital and fund potential new acquisitions.

TAXES | RENTAL INCOME

How to make the most from your income property TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS

COLIN MILLER

ou may be thinking about buying investment properties and renting them out for extra income, or perhaps renting out your farmland. However, before becoming a rental property owner, there are some things you should know about how it will affect your taxes. When getting into property rental, most people will run their new business as a proprietorship. That is, they will report all their income and expenses from rentals on their personal tax return. Many expenses can be deducted against rental income: mortgage interest, property taxes, utilities, insurance, repairs and maintenance, property management fee, and advertising. Principal that is paid on the property’s mortgage is not a deductible expense.

principal residence exemption when the home is sold, which would result in greater tax costs. • The selling price of the property is often greater than what was originally paid for the property. When you sell a property for more then you paid, and CCA was claimed on the asset, all prior CCA expense claims will have to be included as income in the year the property is sold. This is called recapture, and depending on the value, it could create a significant tax consequence in the year of sale. Rental Losses A rental loss results when rental

income is lower than the rental property expenses. Rental losses can be used to reduce total taxable income, as long as the rent you are charging is fair market value. You cannot use a rental loss if it is the result of charging discounted rent to a family member. Rental income in a company Most rental income in a company is considered “non-active income,” as opposed to “business income.” This type of income is taxed at a much higher rate than business income, so there is usually no direct tax benefit to owning rental properties in a company rather than personally. There are some exceptions to these rules.

Leasing farmland When leasing farmland, the landowner could consider a crop share lease, a cash lease or a flexible cash lease. However, there are some tax considerations to keep in mind: • If you are renting farmland to a non-family member as a cash lease, it may affect your ability to use the capital gain exemption or tax free rollover when land is transferred to your child or sold, resulting in greater future tax costs. This can be mitigated, but it may require some tax planning. With a crop share lease, you may be considered to be farming your own land if you are still involved in farm

management, such as deciding what crops to plant. This means that your income from the rental property may be considered farm income. Farm expenses can be claimed to lower current tax costs, and the capital gain rollover is less likely to be affected. However, unlike a standard lease, the risks of the farm business will be still be yours. There are many ways to approach investing in rental properties. Talk to a professional adviser to determine what is right for you and your family. Kallie Desruisseaux and Ebony Verbonac of KPMG contributed to this article.

Capital cost allowance

Matthew Martin This is based on the principal cost of the rental property, written off over time, a portion each year. This reduces rental income, which lowers taxes. CCA is based on the value of the home, as well as furniture, fixtures, renovations and improvements. For re n t e d f a r m l a n d , C C A c a n b e claimed on irrigation equipment and other permanent fixtures. No CCA can be written off on the land because it is expected that the value of the land will never go down. As well, CCA cannot be used to increase a rental loss. Deducting CCA is an option, but owners often choose not to claim CCA on rental properties. There are two main reasons: • Renting a portion of your home and claiming the rental portion of the CCA could result in the loss of the

TURNAROUND | CO-OPERATIVE

UFA restructuring results in profit, patronage dividends Posts $3.4 million profit | Alberta co-op reorganizes to meet the regional needs of its agricultural membership BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Agriculture companies don’t usually get fired up about posting a small profit, but executives at UFA Cooperative Ltd. are elated with 2011 results. The co-op generated income of $3.4 million after two straight years of heavy losses. “We have come back from an $88.5 million loss to a positive earnings position,” said chair Jim Laverick. “This is a substantial improvement over last year’s results and represents

a monumental accomplishment and a major turning point for UFA.” The 2010 results were the worst in t h e c o - o p’s 1 0 3 - y e a r h i s t o r y , although they were skewed by abnormal one-time expenses, such as costs linked with getting out of the commercial construction business. “2011 was a pivotal year for us coming out of a rough time in our history,” said UFA president Bob Nelson. “What a difference a year makes.” For the first time in three years, the co-op is able to pay a patronage dividend to its 110,000 members. A dividend of $7 million will be allocated

against farm fuel, crop input and livestock supply purchases. In his message to members in the annual report, Laverick said the UFA’s survival depended on turning the organization around. Nelson said UFA wasn’t on its last legs, but the outlook was grim. He echoed Laverick’s comments that UFA struggled to keep pace with change and be relevant to farmers. “We lost our way for a short period of time, probably for a couple of years,” said Nelson. The turnaround began in 2010 when UFA’s board of directors

changed the senior management team. Nelson and his group arranged new debt financing and implemented three-year operating plans for the petroleum, agribusiness and outdoor recreation divisions. Michele Aasgard, executive director of the Alberta Community and Co-operative Association, applauded the co-op’s board and delegate body for their decisive actions. “The part of it that really, really impresses me is they knew that they were in trouble and they took the steps to rectify that,” she said.

she was surprised to find few agricultural products. The new management has addressed that. “They went back to their grassroots and really went to what UFA was about, and that was their agricultural community. That’s what supported them,” she said. UFA decided its agribusiness division needed transformation. Instead of continuing a big-box approach to retailing inputs, it divided its 35 stores into seven trade areas with product lines tailored for each area. It revamped its inventory management system to provide timelier product deliver y, and it began remodeling some of its stores. UFA left the grain marketing business in 2011 because it was not considered a core competency. Also, it reached a deal with Agri-Trend Group of Companies to help provide agronomic advice to its members. The result was an $11.8 million improvement in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. There was also a $17 million increase in EBITDA for the petroleum division.

Emerald Group gains market share BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

ADELAIDE, Aus. — Australia’s Emerald Group has quietly secured a major portion of Australia’s multibillion-dollar grain trade. The company, unknown to Australian farmers just 10 years ago, has already secured a 10 percent share of the Australian grain market. Chair Alan Winney would like to increase market share to 20 percent in the next few years. The company could take a big step toward that if its bid to buy Australian Bulk Alliance (ABA) is successful. ABA now owns a grain export terminal in Melbourne and a network of more than a dozen bulk grain collection and handling facilities in New South Wales and Victoria. Brian Dalitz, Emerald’s general manager for trading and marketing, said acquiring grain handling infrastructure is critical. “There is a global trend toward ownership and control of the supply chain,” he said. “The Glencore example … is testament to that, and it’s no secret that Bunge and Dreyfus through Asia have made a lot of investment in the supply chain.” Emerald is Australia’s fifth largest grain company, with annual handlings in excess of four million tonnes per year. Besides making a play for ABA, it is also considering an agreement with Australian mining company, Centrex Metals. That would give Emerald access to an export facility on South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula, a key wheat growing area that exports most of its production.

MINING | FERTILIZER

New phosphate rock mine planned Paris Hills project | Close to 40 new phosphate facilities expected BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

A Canadian company is expected to open a phosphate rock mine in Idaho in late 2014 or early 2015. It will be the first underground phosphate rock mine in the United States and will add to the expanding global supply of phosphate rock and phosphate fertilizers. Stonegate Agricom Ltd. is a junior mining company based in Toronto. Most phosphate rock mines are open pit, but the phosphate deposit at Stonegate’s Paris Hills project in southeastern Idaho runs from the surface to a depth of 1,100 metres. It is doubly unusual because Stonegate is digging into a North American industry dominated by major players like Mosaic, Agrium and Potash Corp. Despite the challenges of underground mining and competition from vertically integrated players in the fertilizer business, chief executive officer Mark Ashcroft said the project is financially viable because the phosphate rock at the Paris Hills site is high grade. “This requires no beneficiation or processing from our side before the integrated producers can use (it) to actually manufacture MAP or DAP,” said Ashcroft, who went to high school in Thompson, Man., before launching a 20 year career in mine management and mine project finance. “That’s the opportunity here. It’s such high grade that we don’t have to process it.” In late March, Stonegate released a pre-feasibility study for its Idaho project, noting the mine will have a life of 14 years and annually produce 800,000 to one million tonnes of rock. Stonegate estimates the average price for phosphate rock will be $160 per tonne over the life of the mine, which is 20 percent lower than the current price of $200 per tonne. Ashcroft said the price estimate is conservative, but it’s possible phosphate rock and phosphate fertilizer prices could remain lower in the medium and long term because countries like Morocco and Saudi

Arabia have developed or plan to expand their phosphate production. “Currently, there are major projects carried out in Morocco, Peru, Saudi Arabia and Russia that will bring new mining and processing capacity for phosphate rock over the next five years,” said Michel Prud’homme, director of production and international trade for the International Fertilizer Industry Association (IFA). “So, indeed there will be an increment of potential rock production over the next five years… (of) 26 percent or 20 percent.” In a 2011 report, Prud’homme and his IFA colleague Patrick Heffer said global phosphorus fertilizer supplies would grow from 42.1 million tonnes in 2011 to 47.8 million tonnes in 2015. Phosphorus fertilizer demand would expand from 40.7 million tonnes to 44.0 million tonnes in 2015. “Over the next five years, close to 40 new (phosphate plants) are planned to come on stream in 11 countries,” they wrote. As an example of increasing global supplies, Saudi Arabia opened the Maaden plant in 2011, the largest phosphate fertilizer facility in the world. At full capacity, it can produce three million tonnes of di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) annually, which represents about 10 percent of global DAP production. David Asbridge, a fertilizer industry analyst who runs NPK Fertilizer Advisory Services in St. Louis, Missouri, has predicted that expanding global supplies will put downward pressure on phosphate fertilizer prices in the short and medium-term. Ashcroft said he isn’t worried that prices will collapse. It will take years and a great deal of foreign capital for Morocco to turn its massive phosphate rock deposits into fertilizer. As well, the Maaden plant may be huge but it hasn’t severely disrupted the supply-demand balance. “When it (Maaden) was initially coming on, it was three million tonnes of (DAP) production (annually). The net impact is only about 1.5 million (tonnes) because there were other facilities around the world closing down.”

PHOSPHATE ROCK EXPLAINED Phosphate rock is the product obtained from the mining and processing of phosphorus-bearing ores. The practice of direct application of phosphate rock sources as fertilizers has advantages: • They are natural minerals requiring minimum processing, which circumvents the production cycle, which may be polluting wastes.

Centennial Column Celebrating 100 years of students at the College of Agriculture and Bioresources. The Centennial Column is a weekly feature highlighting the history and present successes of the college.

• They can be used in organic agriculture. • Based on the unit cost of phosphorus, natural or indigenous phosphate rock is usually the cheapest. • Because of their variable and complex chemical composition, phosphate rocks are sources of several nutrients other than phosphorus. Limitations: • Not all phosphate rock is suitable for direct application. • Not all soils and cropping systems are suitable for phosphate rock of different origin. • There is a lack of knowledge about the main factors and conditions affecting the agronomic effectiveness of phosphate rocks and an inability to predict their effectiveness, as well as a lack of assessment of socio-economic and financial benefits. • The low grade of some phosphate rocks compared with high-grade commercial phosphorus fertilizers makes them more expensive at the point of application. • Sedimentary phosphate rock shows a complex structure. It has variable chemical constituents and may contain elements such as heavy metals and even radionuclides that upon dissolution of the phosphate rock in the soil may be harmful at some concentrations.

Beef cattle at the University of Saskatchewan. Photo from the College of Agriculture and Bioresources.

The Termuende Research Station The University of Saskatchewan has been active in beef cattle management and research studies since the first cattle were obtained in 1911. Many of the early beef cattle, which were mainly Aberden Angus and Shorthorn, were imported directly from the United Kingdom. From 1929 until 1937, the U of S also operated the Matador Ranch near Kyle, SK. Some of the earliest studies on beef cattle crossbreeding were conducted at that site and the publication of those reports had a major effect on the livestock industry at the time. Studies were also conducted on the economics of delivery of finished beef cattle to the London, England market. The university continued to maintain a beef cow herd on the university campus until 1961. At that time the herd was dispersed and a year later the University of Saskatchewan Feedlot Research Unit was established. It was not until the acquisition of the Termuende Farm at Lanigan in 1974 that the Department of Animal and Poultry Science at the University of Saskatchewan was able to resume research and management studies on its own cow/calf unit. The farm was transferred to the university with the understanding that it be used for improvement of beef cattle in a mixed farm context. The Termuendes had as special love for the land and wildlife. They treated the land as a heritage and they felt the land should not be exploited but kept in a state as good or better than when they had purchased it. The generosity of the Termuende family in providing the land base and initial farm facilities for this renewed research effort is greatly appreciated by the university community. In the first few years of its use as a research facility, the Termuende Farm was used by VIDO (Veterinary Infectious Disease Organization) in the development of a vaccine for the control of scours. Since that time,many nutrition and management studies have been conducted. The Termuende Research Station is a base for multi-disciplinary research. Researchers involved have come from several areas including animal and poultry science,soil science, plant science and veterinary medicine.

RURAL EDUCATION | CONGRESS

EDUCATION | INVOLVEMENT

Sport academy numbers rise

Schools promote community fitness

Retaining schools | Sports attract students STORIES BY DIANE ROGERS FREELANCE WRITER

S A S K AT O O N — S p o r t s h a s become the new cash cow for some rural schools. In the past seven years, Alberta has gone to 80 sports academies from two. Half of these specialized schools are located in rural areas, said Daniel Balderson, an education professor at the University of Lethbridge. The Notre Dame school in Wilcox, Sask., and its hockey team serve as the model, he told a session at the 17th National Congress on Rural Education in Canada March 26. For decades, the Hounds’ elite travelling team has been playing and the school charges a premium tuition for its instruction and opportunities. The value of such elite sports schools shows up in the Olympic Games, said Balderson. From 200104, 82 percent of Germany’s Olympic medals were won by athletes who were students or graduates of sports schools. In 2006, only 10 percent of Canada’s Olympic team had attended or was enrolled in a sports school. Most of Alberta’s academies are not the elite model, said Balderson. Such schools charge $14,000 to $35,000 a year per student, including room and board. The students are on the ice or the field five days a week, often travelling to games on weekends. They get special sports fundamentals courses, usually in the afternoon after academic courses in the morning. Other sports schools teach their specialty after regular classes and students develop their skills in twice a week games. Tuition for these schools ranges from $800 to $1,500 a year. Balderson said a typical elite type academy is in Warner, Alta. A decade ago, its population was 383 and residents feared the school would close. They came up with the idea for a women’s hockey school that in its inaugural year in 2003 brought in 20 girls. Since then, 84 players have graduated from

Warner, 76 of whom went on to play on post-secondary teams. Those alumni were awarded a total of $1.3 million in scholarships. The program costs $30,000 per year, which includes residence in a converted church, a coach who played seven seasons in the NHL and weekend travel to games. The Vauxhall Academy of Baseball is one of five in Alberta specializing in this sport. It recruits from across Canada with 13 of its 56 sports students this year coming from outside the province.

Enrolment was the major impetus to forming the baseball school as Vauxhall’s high school slipped to 185 by 2008 from 250 students in 2005. The school has since been able to add a new teacher in each of the past three years. Balderson said the Vauxhall sports students play about 50 games a year and practise in winter inside the town’s recreation centre, with a batting cage. Lights were

added to the outdoor field, which is as good as any in major cities, said Balderson. “It’s like a field of dreams.”

All baseball students in Vauxhall must volunteer in the community. Most of Alberta’s academies are in hockey, baseball and golf, but there is one for lacrosse. Rodeo is the focus of the Westwind Equine Academy in Cardston, Alta. It began with a donation of land and

$1 million from two bachelor brother ranchers who wanted to leave a legacy for their community. It started as an elite program, but t h e p ro g ra m s h i f t e d w h e n i t couldn’t get course credits for its sport.

R o d e o l e s s o n s a re held after class at the school, which also offers equine-assisted therapy for special needs kids and seniors. Balderson said schools “compete with a lot of things, some of them aren’t that healthy for youth.” Tuition-paying students allow schools to add course options that were lost, the community gains from new investment and teachers are inspired by new approaches.

SASKATOON — It was a conversation with a grumpy senior citizen that helped Doug English with his idea. The senior complained that he had no kids or grandchildren in school so why should he pay education taxes. English, a Unity, Sask., school principal and physical education teacher, turned a classroom in his school into a fitness centre for his students, seniors and others in the west-central Saskatchewan community. In a session at the 17th National Congress on Rural Education in Canada, English said he had a selfish reason for bringing seniors to school. “Once there, they help my kindergarten carve pumpkins or help kids read,” he said. The 130 students at Unity Public School are in their homemade gym every day. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from November to April, the school buzzer sounds eight minutes early so the entire school can spend 15 minutes walking the halls and running through a circuit of weights, jumps and other exercises. English is passionate about physical exertion. “I believe I have to change attitudes with kids so it’s a habit and strange not to be running for 15 minutes each day.” The original fitness room equipment was used, including treadmills. Regular donations and clean-up events by the students brought in small amounts, but it was a brainwave by the chair of the school community council that led to ideas for raising funds to purchase fitness equipment. Brad Sperle, a local farmer and North West Terminal board member, knew the terminal had bought land for future expansion that was lying dormant. He proposed a crop be planted, tended and harvested with volunteers and donations to raise money for the school. NW T agreed along with local chemical and seed dealers and 70 acres of peas were planted in 2007. The harvest raised $22,000 for the school that year.

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT | EMERGENCY CASES

Don’t get caught in an emergency without a legal will A PRAIRIE PRACTICE

GAIL WARTMAN, B.A., J.D.

Handwritten wills have solid legal standing

riends were caught in a fierce prairie blizzard a long way from home several years ago. One of the things they realized as

they awaited rescue was that they did not have a will, and they had small children who were dependent on them. Our friends made short handwritten wills in their cold car, and if they had not been rescued, those emergency wills would have been valid. In Saskatchewan, section eight of The Wills Act, 1996, states: “A holograph will, wholly in the handwriting of the testator and signed by him or her, may be made without any further formality or any requirement as to the presence of or attestation or signature by a witness.” This type of will needs to be in the testator’s own handwriting and

signed only by the testator. The most famous holograph will in Saskatchewan involves Cecil George Harris, who became trapped by his tractor in 1948. When he realized that he might not survive, he used his small knife to carve a will in the fender of his tractor. He died after being rescued but the fender was later tendered in court as his will and was deemed valid. I refer to holograph wills as emergency wills, because the assistance of a lawyer can help you determine the best process for passing on your assets to the people that you wish to benefit, and identifying potential income tax concerns, family property issues and other matters that non-

lawyers might overlook in estate planning. The preparation of a will is something many people put off, but it is an important step in providing for dependents, other family members and charities or organizations. The process is normally straightforward and affordable at a lawyer’s office. Many people ask about the validity of will kits. It is important to know that the law regarding wills and the formalities in their signing varies from place to place, even within Canada. Other laws such as family property legislation and providing for dependents can be different from province to province. You should consult a lawyer in the

province in which you live to get the best advice in planning your estate. If you are ever in the situation where you find yourself writing a holograph will, name your executor, the person you would want to handle the business of settling your estate, the people or organizations you want to benefit under your will, and make sure to sign and date it. And most important of all, name a guardian for your children. This article is presented for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice.

RELOCATION | STRESS

SPEAKING OF LIFE

Pre-emergent herbicide

JACKLIN ANDREWS, BA, MSW

My mom and dad are on their own and are doing pretty well, but sometimes they need help with banking or picking up a few things from the grocery store. The problem is that I am seven hours away from the village where they live and I cannot always be there. My husband and I have offered to buy them a condo blocks from our house, but neither Mom nor Dad wants to move.

I’m not convinced that moving is within their best interests. Relocating is stressful for anyone, but even more so for the elderly. Moving means leaving behind friends and a familiar setting. This moving stress is called relocation stress syndrome or transfer trauma. The more you understand some of the factors involved in your parents’ move, the better you will be able to help them. If your parents move, they are at risk of depression, confusion, anxiety and insomnia. Most governments are committed to home care or giving people the opportunity to live in their own homes as long as possible. If you are struggling to help your parents meet their daily needs while living at home, you could contact your local health authorities with your parents and sign up for necessary services. Remember that they are adults and need to be involved in any decisions. Encourage them to ask as many questions as they can before the move and make sure that you acknowledge their concerns and anxieties. Assure them that their personal possessions will be protected and let them take what they can. Once they move, help them acclimatize to the new setting.

ON THE FARM | RAISING FISH

Stocking dugouts: selling fish to farmers Stocking trout ponds, dugouts | Saskatoon area entrepreneurs close to sold out in March BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

VANSCOY, Sask. — Collin and Rachel Keet worry about drought, even though their operation is literally swimming in water. That’s because their customer base dries up along with dugouts and ponds when there is a prolonged dry spell. Keet’s Fish Farm provides farmers with rainbow trout fingerlings each spring to populate their water holes. “If there is water, business is good, so the last few years have been pretty good,” said Collin. The couple sells about 200,000 fingerlings annually from Collin’s parents’ farm north of Vanscoy, Sask, where there is a building housing 20 tanks containing various sizes of rainbow trout. Collin grew up on a chicken and cattle farm, but his father diversified into fish production in 1985. Collin took over the fish business in 2001 while still attending high school. “I think Collin is lucky. He gets to do what he likes to do,” said Rachel, a city girl who met her future husband while getting her nursing degree at the University of Saskatchewan. “Collin is all farm.”

Rachel’s role in the operation is limited to taking orders and providing tours of the production facility. “We have two little kids now (four and two) so I don’t do as much now as I did before,” she said. Collin said fish require constant supervision and special care. For instance, if the power goes out, they’ll only survive for five or 10 minutes without moving water. He feels like he is always on call during the production months. “It’s like being married to a doctor without the BMW,” said Rachel. Collin looks forward to the end of spring when the fingerlings are all sold and he can briefly focus on other activities, such as completing their house. The business has a customer base of about 500 buyers, the vast majority of which are Saskatchewan farmers. It also provides fish for places like Musker Pond at Candle Lake. Prices range from 48 cents for a three inch trout to $2.20 for an eight inch fingerling. That works out to about $50 per pound for the little ones compared to $6 or $7 per lb. for the larger fish. “We do better on the smaller ones,” said Collin.

There were once six such hatcheries in the province but now there are just three. “Farms have gotten much bigger in the last 10 to 20 years. There’s less farmers, so there is less customers,” said Collin. They never have trouble selling all their production, but during the dry years, they have to load a tank full of fish on the truck and chase after customers at predetermined delivery points. A typical customer will buy about 300 fingerlings, which is the average stocking rate for an acre-sized water hole. Five inch fingerlings are the most popular choice. The Keets are considering expanding their operation but they would first need to find another source of water. They get their water from a well that taps into the Tyner Valley Aquifer. The big input costs for the farm are the eggs they source from the United States and the fishmeal feed. The bulk of the eggs come in June but they also get them in October and January so they can have different sizes of fingerlings in spring. They get the feed from EWOS Canada in Surrey, B.C. “The feed conversion of a fish is one-to-one. They grow well on whatever you give them. You know you’re going to get it back out,” said Collin.

The only major disease threat is bacterial gill disease, which is brought on by stress. Adding salt to the water reduces nitrate levels and cleans the gills. In spring, the couple is busy cleaning up the building and tanks to get them ready for the customer onslaught.

“Once the ice is off the dugouts, we’ll have people lined up in the driveway,” said Rachel. Collin estimates they were 90 percent sold out of this year’s production by mid-March. “It was crazy this year. I was surprised. I think it was partly the warm weather,” he said.

RURAL MEDICINE | TRAINING

Manitoba looks at rural doctor education options Medical school proposal | Brandon University could train doctors BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Government funded feasibility studies too often wind up on a high, dusty shelf in an unused office, ignored and unread. Doug Dobrowolski, president of the Association of Manitoba Municipalities, hopes that isn’t the fate of the Brandon Medical Education Study. The study is crucial for rural Manitoba because smaller communities across rural Manitoba are losing the battle for physicians, he said. “ Unfortunately in Manitoba, there’s a competition where communities are bidding (against each other for doctors). We’ll provide you a house, we’ll provide you furniture. They’ll do whatever to get a doctor into their community,” he said. Last April, the provincial government committed $350,000 for a study to consider if medical education in Brandon, Manitoba’s second largest city, would bolster the quality of medical care in rural and northern regions. The University of Manitoba currently has the only medical school in the province, but that could change, depending on the study’s outcome. The argument for doctor training in Brandon is basic. If physicians are educated in a more rural location, like Brandon, it’s more likely that

APPROXIMATE STUDENT POPULATION OF BRANDON UNIVERSITY they will practise in a rural area. “It’s more of an ease of transition to (rural communities).” Empirical evidence from Australia, Canada and the United States indicates that Dobrowolski’s assumption is correct, said Deborah Poff, Brandon University president. “If you educate people in small cities with a lot of experience and exposure to rural communities when you’re a student, the likelihood of you practising (in a rural area) … is more than doubled.” Yet, it’s doubtful the Manitoba government will set up an independent medical school at Brandon University, because of cost and logistical factors, Poff said. A satellite medical program in Brandon, where doctors receive a University of Manitoba degree, is more likely, she said. One possible model is the Northern Medical Program at the University of

Northern British Columbia in Prince George. The program, which began in the mid 2000s, is part of the University of British Columbia medical school but the curriculum is delivered in Prince George. “These graduates have been very successful in their residency matches with over 50 percent choosing to pursue careers in family medicine … far above the national average,” reported a Northern Medical Program website. To increase the probability of doctors practising in rural areas, the Northern Medical Program seeks students from rural B.C., selects students from rural and northern B.C. and gives weight to a willingness to practice in rural areas, said Poff. UNBC admits 32 students into its medical degree program each year, a number Poff thinks is reasonable for Brandon. Each year, the University of Manitoba has 110 seats for students who want to become doctors. If a satellite medical program was created in Brandon, the number of seats in the province might be increased or seats may be moved to Brandon from Winnipeg. The Association of Manitoba Municipalities will meet with Manitoba’s health minister April 13 to learn about the recommendations in the report, Dobrowolski said.

If the proposal to create a medical school at Brandon University is feasible, the first crop of new doctors could graduate within a decade. | ROBERT ARNASON PHOTO
