ew dicamba- and g l y p h o s a t e - t o l e ra n t soybeans give growers more weed control options — but they also increase the risk of damage from spray drift and tank residue.

That’s according to Manitoba Agriculture officials speaking here at the annual Crop Diagnostic School last week.

What’s been happening in Arkansas underscores the risk dicamba drift presents. On July 7 Arkansas announced a 120day ban on the use and sale of dicamba in the wake of 550 drift complaints this season.

Last year an altercation between two farmers over drift escalated to the alleged shooting and death of 55-year-old farmer Mike Wallace of Monette, Arkansas.

The Arkansas Legislative Council had already approved an emergency rule allowing fines of up to $25,000 for “egregious” misuse of dicamba.

“Dicamba dr ift damage can occur at low doses,” Terry Buss, a farm production extension specialist for pulses, said in an interview July 5 during Manitoba Agriculture and the University of Manitoba’s 23rd annual Crop Diagnostic School at the university’s Carman research station.

Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans can be sprayed with a tank mix of glyphosate and dicamba. The latter provides good control of wild buckwheat, but neither herbicide controls volunteer Roundup Ready canola, says Manitoba Agriculture weed specialist Jeanette Gaultier.

Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans, which can tolerate the herbicides glyphosate and dicamba, were commercially available to Manitoba farmers for the first time this spring.

Dicamba, a Group 4 herbicide, is more volatile than some other weed killers, Manitoba Agriculture weed special-

ist Jeanette Gaultier said in an interview July 7. However, two less volatile dicamba formulations — Monsanto’s Xtendimax with VaporGrip Technology and Engina from BASF — are available.

Dicamba drift can be further reduced by applying it before crops emerge, increasing drop-

let size, spraying when winds are light and keeping sprayer speeds down.

Monsanto Canada spokeswoman, Trish Jordan, says Arkansas is an anomaly.

here’s good news and bad news for the world’s wheat crops.

An international consortium of researchers have identified a gene in wheat that protects the plants from the deadly fungus which causes wheat blast infections.

Unfortunately it would appear many strains of wheat lost this gene sometime in the 1980s, when it was inadvertently bred out of them.

Wheat blast first emerged in Brazil in the mid-1980s and has recently caused heavy crop losses in Asia. The fungus is also known to affect other crops, such as rice, oats, and ryegrass.

In an article recently published in the journal Science, lead author Yoshihiro Inoue of Japan’s Kobe University said the disease thrived in large part because a popular cultivar was released in Brazil that lacked the gene just as the fungus was becoming more common in the region.

“The finding explains an epidemic of the fungus, which continues to this day,

and suggests that restoring the gene in wheat could limit impacts of the fungal pathogen,” he wrote.

Not knowing this, others outside of Brazil used this strain of wheat for their own agriculture. By analyzing a global database of wheat genomes, the authors were able to trace the gene loss across continents, and the corresponding spread of wheat blast.

Around the same time, analyses show, the fungus acquired mutations in its offensive gene (named PWT3), which boosted its ability to infect hosts.

Until recently the disease has largely been limited to South America and Asia, but in 2011 researchers at the University of Kentucky observed the effects of the disease on a single wheat head in a research plot.

Turtle Mountain Conservation District puts its best foot forward The Turtle Mountain Conservation District toured the public around some of its recent and long-standing projects as part of the biennial event

BY ALEXIS STOCKFORD Co-operator staff

I

t was a once-in-two-year chance June 28 as participants lined up for a look behind the scenes of the Turtle Mountain Conservation District during the biennial bus tour.

“We just wanted to focus on the Waskada Creek area,” district manager Yasmine Wruth said.

“We couldn’t do the entire area, but we focused on the southern portion of it. Accessibility was one reason we chose (the sites) and they were projects that we did fairly recently.”

Covering 4,500 square kilometres around Deloraine and the Canada-U.S. border, much of the Turtle Mountain Conservation District is a perennial flood risk zone, as spring run-off swells the East Souris and Pembina rivers and rushes down from the Turtle Mountain hills to the south.

Water management formed the backbone of the tour as staff pointed out protected wetlands, back-flood structures, grassed waterways, dams and bank stabilization projects.

Building riverbanks The creek running past Dave Stewart’s farm southwest of Deloraine looks quite different now from when its eroding banks were rebuilt about five years ago.

“We’ve had quite a bit of flooding here in the last few years,” Stewart said. “The last 10 years, the water seems to be picking up, so this bank was getting closer and closer to where I have to drive and there’s not much room between here and the barn, so we had to do something.”

Stewart approached the conservation district, which agreed to take on the project.

Over two days, staff graded down the bank from what was once a near drop to a 3:1 slope.

Netting from coconut husks was used to protect the new shape until plants took root, while stone and willow were brought in to discourage erosion. The conservation district has made special use of willow in such projects due to its complex root system.

The area was then fenced off to limit cattle access and allow vegetation to grow, further stabilizing the bank.

“It stopped eroding and it’s working great,” Stewart said.

“It was coming through that runway about three or four feet or a metre and a half deep. You could hear it running from the road.”

Jeff Thom

The district covered all costs of the project, save the cost of fencing.

Dam tested One of the district’s most recent projects was put to the test in its first year, attendees were told during a tour stop on top of the almost four-metre-high dam across a ravine southeast of Waskada.

The $41,000 structure was completed in fall 2016 after producer Jeff Thom applied for funding through Manitoba’s Growing Assurance program. The conservation district came on to design the dam.

The structure draws from 700 acres of surrounding land, can store 36 acre-feet of water (the amount needed to cover 36 acres with water one foot deep) and will form another line of defence for both an existing dam and roads down stream.

“That dam has washed out two or three times in the last 10 years, and then when it let go, it took out several roads down stream from there,” Thom said.

“There is a bit of a risk, I guess, with having these structures hold back water, but this should help that dam down stream and those roads,” he added.

Made to handle a one-in-50year flood, the dam can hold or release water depending on current need in the area and expected flows, much like larger reservoirs along the Assiniboine and Souris rivers.

“We can draw down the water and basically take the peak off during spring run-off,” Wruth said.

The district was forced to use that function this spring, when snowmelt roared through the area.

“It was coming through that runway about three or four feet

or a metre and a half deep,” Thom said. “You could hear it running from the road.”

The conservation district said the structure will also provide water storage for drought conditions, help reduce erosion, create wildlife habitat and capture nutrients that would otherwise flow down the watershed. The fourmetre-wide structure also doubles as a roadway between Thom’s fields on either side of the ravine.

The conservation district will return to the site in fall to install a plunge pool, Wruth said.

Looking ahead The district’s work on water storage projects will continue this year in both the East Souris River and Upper Pembina River watersheds.

“The East Souris River, there’s four sub-watersheds within that and I would say three of those are doing water storage projects, as well as a few grass waterway,” Wruth said.

“For the Pembina River, we’ve got two water storage projects, as well as some bank stabilization projects as well,” she added.

Several remote watering systems are also incoming into the East Souris River area and the conservation district plans to update the decade-old East Souris River Watershed management plan.

Public consultations will be held in fall 2017 as part of that process, Wruth said. astockford@farmmedia.com

The creek bank bordering Dave Stewart’s yard site south of Deloraine was given a gentler slop and erosion-mitigating vegetation during one of the Turtle Mountain Conservation District’s bank stabilization projects five years ago.

OPINION/EDITORIAL

Midpoint

I

t’s that point of the summer when the crops are really getting their legs.

They’re growing, stretching and filling and now success or failure is largely between themselves and Mother Nature.

As a farmer, you’ve done what you can to set them up for success, and that’s no doubt made for some hard work, long hours and personal sacrifices.

Seeding and spraying wait for no man Gord Gilmour or woman and every successful farmer Editor knows that.

Now might be the time to consider something every truly successful person knows though — and in this case we’re not using the term “successful” in strictly the economic sense.

The truth is there are a lot of ways to judge success, and some of the most important ways have nothing to do with dollars and cents.

There’s success in a strong relationship with a young child or aging parent, a success that will pay dividends well into the future. There’s success in developing interests outside the farm and agriculture industry itself, interests that can sustain one in retirement. There’s success in realizing that, as important as one’s career is, it’s not necessarily always going to be the only thing that defines you.

Farm families make a lot of sacrifices to keep farms running smoothly, and we’re just entering the window when, in the heart of our all-too-brief summer, they can take a little bit back for themselves.

The work is as caught up as it’s going to get and the world beckons. Go fishing. Take a road trip. Jump into the truck and visit a local fair or a farm show if you must take a letter carrier’s holiday.

Last summer I had the opportunity to visit the Ag in Motion show near Saskatoon, organized by our parent company. One of the things that struck me at the time was just how many families had chosen to make a day of it.

It was nice to see so many farm youth there with their parents, all of them interested and knowledgeable about farming. You could hear them discussing the merits of various tractors and seeding systems as they wandered the laneways of the show.

Gathering in the shade of the shelterbelts they enjoyed picnic lunches, cold drinks and the company of each other.

I left that event convinced more than ever that the ‘culture’ part of agriculture remains intact. This remains a business largely centred around families, with their own way of doing things, and their own way of viewing and interacting with the world.

But that’s not to say there isn’t room for improvement — or at least some realities to bear in mind.

One reality is that farm families tend to work long and hard, and they’re not always the best at setting aside time for themselves.

Another is that it can be tough to truly relax and enjoy the company of each other when you’re thinking about that unfinished job that’s staring you in the face, even if it’s not a critical one.

Yet another is that human lives are fleeting and short. The best description I’ve ever heard is that the days can be long, but the years are short. You look away once, and the babe in arms has become an eight-year-old. Glance away again and they’re graduating from high school.

Several years ago I met a farmer from the Peace River country who I was interviewing for a feature article on the area.

He’d come back to the farmyard for a couple of hours to feed and check the cows and have a conversation with me. The rest of his family was down at the provincial park a few miles down the road camping. He made no bones about why they were doing this.

Running the farm was stressful, and the family had struggled financially while trying to get it up and running. Despite that fact, he and his wife were determined their kids would have a childhood that included some of the small pleasures of life. In this case, it was roasting hotdogs around a campfire and playing in the water. Long after the farm had succeeded or failed, he explained, the family would remain.

He also acknowledged that his kids may or may not follow in their parents’ footsteps and, statistically at least, it was very likely that most, if not all of his kids would leave the farm. Once that happened, he knew spending time with them would be more difficult and he and his wife were determined not to miss the opportunity to forge a lasting bond.

What you do with your brief summer window isn’t important.

Everyone will have their own preference. But what is important is to acknowledge it and not miss the opportunity.

Go to a show. Go fishing. Go to the city to sponge off the in-laws. Go camping or take a road trip somewhere. Seize the opportunity to make some memories together.

Just like any other family, yours also deserves the opportunity to relax and enjoy a Manitoba summer together.

Take a break to cultivate that aspect of your life. gord.gilmour@fbcpublishing.com

Carbon policy ill conceived APAS policy paper

T

he Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan (APAS) has carefully reviewed the Federal Backstop Paper that will form the nation’s default carbon policy.

Our overall assessment is that the Govern­ ment of Canada’s carbon pricing backstop policy fails to recognize agriculture’s contribution to carbon sequestration and emissions reduction in Canada. The imposition of the proposed carbon levies will reduce farm incomes and impact our competitiveness while failing to result in emissions reductions in the agricultural sector.

APAS strongly opposes the imposition of the carbon pricing policy on Saskatchewan agricultural producers.

The Technical Backstop paper is developed around the basic assumption that a carbon levy provides an incentive to reduce energy use through conservation and efficiency measures. This assumption does not apply to Saskatchewan agricultural production.

The federal government has not conducted a detailed cost analysis estimating the financial impact the proposed surcharges and levies will have on the agricultural sector. The levy schedule contained in the Technical Backstop paper will result in a range of direct and indirect costs on primary agricultural production. Producers will bear most of these costs through increased prices on their inputs as well as through price reductions for agricultural products.

Unlike other sectors in agricultural supply chains, primary producers lack the ability to offset costs by increasing prices to consumers and/or lowering the prices paid for

OUR HISTORY:

I

their inputs. In addition to the direct levies on farm inputs such as fuel and natural gas, the proposed levies will also increase the operating costs for farm input supply firms, as well as buyers and processors of agricultural products. The net effect for producers is an increase in farm input costs and reduced prices for agricultural products.

Because producers do not set the price for their products, strong incentives already exist to increase efficiency and reduce operating costs. Primary producers have made significant efficiency gains through the adoption of farming methods and technologies that reduce energy consumption and improve soil health.

The federal carbon pricing backstop policy fails to recognize and reward these gains.

The Technical Backstop paper proposes levies on liquid fuels that range from two to three cents per litre for diesel and gasoline, rising to 13 and 15 cents per litre by 2022. A similar rate schedule is proposed for gaseous fossil fuels, such as natural gas. Rates on solid fossil fuels, such as coal, range from $18 to $22 in 2018, rising to $90 and $110 by 2022.

The Technical Backstop paper proposes an exemption on farm fuel for “registered farmers” and “certain farming activities.” Although the details of these exemptions are left unclear, it is unlikely they will be sufficient to shelter agriculture from the full financial impact associated with higher production, storage, and marketing costs.

The proposed levies and surcharges will impose direct and indirect costs for primary producers, especially the cost of moving their products to distant markets.

This column is an excerpt from the APAS response to a recent federal policy paper on carbon pricing. APAS is hosting the Prairie Carbon Summit this week in Saskatoon.

July 1977

f you were checking ads for combines in our July 14, 1977 issue, among those you’d find would be this one for a Co-op Implements self-propelled model with a 12-foot pickup head, or another for an International Harvester 914 pull type.

Another ad said if you paid cash for a new two-wheel-drive tractor from Co-op Implements, you would receive 12 per cent interest on the amount until March 31, 1978, with the value deducted from the purchase price.

The main story on the front page that week quoted Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan as indicating that the federal government was drafting legislation to grant plant breeders rights to developers of new plant varieties.

Also on the front page that week was a report that the House of Commons Broadcasting Committee had declared that the quality of CBC farm broadcasts “has deteriorated to a level which should be of grave concern.” While acknowledging that the standard was better in French broadcasts and on the Prairies, the committee made several recommendations for improvement, including expanded coverage of agriculture during the noon hour.

We reported that expansion was underway at the Manitoba Bull Test Station east of Brandon, with completely new facilities being constructed on 80 acres east of the current location.

COMMENT/FEEDBACK

Tim Hortons:

The coffee giant needs a fix One of Canada’s best-known brands appears to have run into trouble following a foreign takeover

BY SYLVAIN CHARLEBOIS Dalhousie University

T

im Hortons is slowly becoming a classic case of a completely dysfunctional franchise system.

Franchisees on both sides of the border are now pressuring Restaurant Brands International Inc. (RBI), the new owners of the franchise, to ease up on its increasingly strict rules around standards, pricing, and inspections. Some franchisees have even called RBI’s approach abusive.

Some franchisees have now sought a class-action lawsuit against RBI. One Canadian-based franchisee is even alleging the parent company of improperly using funds from a national advertising campaign. It seems the trust in this relationship is all but gone. But what lies ahead promises to be even worse. Lack of bilateral trust in a franchise system often leads to more severe challenges down the road.

For most investors, this is hardly surpr ising. Brazilian-based 3G Capital, which owns the majority of RBI, has a reputation for driving margins higher, whatever it takes.

Anything can be compromised or even sacrificed: jobs, costly practices, corporate culture — you name it. In food processing, Kraft-Heinz, also taken over by this Brazilian giant, has been subject to some major cuts over the last few years. Just talk to the people of Leamington in Ontario where a Heinz plant used to keep the selfproclaimed “Tomato Capital” busy.

In the case of RBI and Tim Hortons’ franchisees, two business models are essentially colliding. For decades, Tim Hortons’ steady-as-she-goes

Tim Hortons’ lawsuits are a signal that something is fundamentally wrong between franchisees and the parent company, RBI.

attitude which focused on offering a place for people of all ages to congregate, served several communities in the style of the general stores of old.

However, some aspects of this practice left much to be desired.

Cars with engines running, lined up at the drive-through for coffee for several minutes, made no environmental sense. But people just kept on coming and going. It wasn’t so much about loyalty as about a customer base becoming addicted and needing its coffee fix. But since 2014, RBI’s rule of law is about efficiency and increased profitability for the parent company.

As for consumers, most would not have noticed the difference. The brown uniforms, the Roll-Up the Rim to Win campaign, summer camp fundraisers — all are still there and very much front and centre. What has changed is indeed what consumers never see.

It was a dramatic shift nonetheless.

Providing value to RBI shareholders is now superseding the corporate will to empower outlets. This has led to major changes in procurement strategies and corporate protocols. Most franchisees did not sign up for such a modus operandi. Several of them invested hundreds of thousands of dollars, and in some cases, millions.

What was once considered as a licence to print money, a tried-andtested program, and a solid pension for investors, has turned into a nightmare for some of the franchisees. Failing to anticipate any contractual changes from the franchise often leads to a state of confusion and eventually, despair. This is what is now happening with Tim Hortons. Most franchises are owned by families or local heroes, who pride themselves in supporting local community groups. That is how Tim Hortons gained the recognition it has today.

But then again, it is difficult to argue against RBI’s success. RBI owns other major chains like Burger King and Popeye’s. The company is essentially making money and has kept shareholders happy — very happy. Its shares have more than doubled in value since its inception in 2014, now valued at over $80 per share. Most analysts would agree that RBI’s stock has outperformed peer companies by a wide margin in recent years. Furthermore, in 2010, Burger King was going nowhere before it was bought by 3G Capital.

That was before RBI. Since then, Burger King is much more competitive and has been able to increase i t s m a rk e t s h a re a c ro s s No r t h

America. It would not be surprising to see its most recent acquisition, Popeye’s, experience the same success.

Keep in mind that not all franchisees are suing RBI. Most Canadian and American franchisees are staying on the sidelines and letting things play out. Despite the very public discontent around the new ownership, some franchisees are co-operating with the new sheriff in town. No lawsuits from Burger King or Popeye’s franchisees, at least not yet. Only time will tell.

Over the short term, the acrimony between 3G Capital and franchisees will probably continue for a while.

What is at stake is a brand which has served communities well for so many years.

Tim Hortons went from being an iconic Canadian-owned business to being merely part of a much larger portfolio. This is a reality all franchisees will need to accept. Along the way though, RBI will need to appreciate the intimate connection local stores have with communities.

There is nothing wrong in making a profit, but RBI will need to work on those relationships before they get worse. A franchise system relies on two fundamental principles: transparency and trust. A lack of both leaves one of the two parties feeling betrayed.

No matter how high RBI’s share price point goal is, it can’t achieve it without the support of its community investors.

Funds on brink of becoming bona fide wheat bulls Short contracts are almost gone and the funds appear to have entered July long

BY KAREN BRAUN Reuters

F

unds have nearly washed away their bearish Chicago wheat bets and have likely entered July as bulls. If true, this would mark specs’ first net long in the soft red wheat market in nearly two years.

In the week ended June 27, hedge funds and other money managers cut their net short in CBOT wheat futures and options to 10,158 contracts from 20,971 in the week prior, according to data from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

Profit-taking following the previous week’s massive round of short covering prevented speculators from further trimming the Chicago wheat position early in the week, but explosiveness in Minneapolis spring wheat futures on June 27 pulled other wheat contracts up with it, and they have been on their way up ever since.

In K.C. wheat futures and options, money managers are ending June on the most bullish note ever. They extended their net long in the week ended June 27 to 44,240 contracts from 37,701 in the previous week, and the new stance is the funds’ most bullish on the hard red wheat since April 1, 2014.

Funds also upped bullish bets in Minneapolis spring wheat futures and options, increasing their net long to 15,347 contracts from 12,720 in the week before.

Speculators went the other way on CBOT corn, expanding their net short to 106,119 futures and options contracts from 53,825 in the week prior.

They had nearly wiped clean their bearish bets around midmonth over threatening U.S. weather forecasts, but largely benign outlooks ever since have led traders to once again hit the “sell” button.

Wheat futures have been through the roof in the days s i n c e, t h o u g h , e s p e c i a l l y Minneapolis, and funds may

soon be bulls across all three wheat contracts. Drought continues to plague spring wheat in the Northern U.S. Plains, and lower-than-expected wheat acres in the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s acreage report on Friday confirmed wheat’s upward march.

Spring wheat acres in particular came in below expectations at a 45-year low and Minneapolis wheat futures have put on nearly $1 — or 13 per cent — since June 27 (all figures U.S. funds).

Trade sources suggest that June 30 was the funds’ most active wheat-buying day of the year thus far, as most active CBOT September futures settled up the daily 30-cent limit, and spot CBOT wheat traded above $5 a bushel for the first time in a year.

CBOT corn also followed wheat up, though gains were more modest under generally bearish stocks and acres from USDA. But uncertainties over conditions and weather still exist, and the weather outlook

going into Monday will largely dictate the near-term direction of the corn market.

Speculators reached new levels of bearishness in CBOT soybeans and soybean meal in the week ended June 27, completely dwarfing their extension of bullishness in soybean oil.

But new records are extremely unlikely next week.

Money managers expanded their net short in soybean futures and options to 118,683 contracts from 87,140 in the week prior. This surpasses the week ended May 26, 2015, for the most bearish by specs on the oilseed, and it marks only the second time on record in which the fund short surpassed 100,000 contracts.

Funds also logged a new alltime net short in soybean meal at 54,430 futures and options contracts, replacing the old record of 50,941 contracts set back on June 6. Soybean meal futures have struggled in recent months amid a general abundance of feed ingredients, and funds have maintained a record

bearish stance for the date since mid-May. Soybean oil retained speculators’ overall optimism last week, as funds increased their modest net long to 10,511 futures and options contracts from 4,769 in the previous week.

The bean oil position prevented the soy complex from overtaking the week ended June 6 as the most bearish combined fund stance of all time. Futures market activity in the days since suggests the record will be safe again for the week ended July 4, and perhaps in the longer term pending U.S. weather forecasts.

The bullish soybean stocks figures and lower-thanexpected U.S. acres from USDA on Friday sent most active November futures up 30 cents, and oil and meal followed along. Similar to wheat, June 30 may have been the funds’ most active soybean buying day of 2017.

applicators using our products are seeing great results, both from a weed control and efficacy standpoint, as well as the application itself and the products staying put,” Jordan said in an email July 7. “So we feel really good about what we are seeing.”

Even though Xtendimax has been approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, farmers in Arkansas don’t have access to it because the state government hasn’t approved it, Jordan said.

“Therefore they don’t have access to the formulation that is designed to go with the product, nor have any of their farmers had the benefit of education and training sessions like in other states,” she added.

Dicamba drift complaints have also been filed in Tennessee, Missouri and Mississippi.

But Jordan said the number of complaints are normal despite 25 million acres of Xtend soybeans and cotton were planted in the U.S. this year. “(W )e will continue to work with every farmer who’s purchased our technology... to have a positive experience,” she said.

Manitoba Agriculture has had a few dicamba drift complaints calls, but the extent of damage isn’t known yet, Gaultier said.

She suspects warmer weather in the southern U.S. might be contributing to more problems there.

In addition, states such as Arkansas have more dicambasusceptible crops. Manitoba’s two biggest acreage crops — canola and wheat — are not injured by dicamba drift. However, Gaultier stressed non-Xtend soybeans, edible beans, sunflowers, potatoes, tomatoes and peppers are.

Some of the problems with dicamba drift in the U.S. are the result of “rescue” treatments when both crops and weeds are well advanced, Buss said. Susceptible crops hit with dicamba entering the reproductive stage result in bigger yield losses because they don’t have time to recover, he said.

Although dicamba can be applied to Xtend soybeans from pre-emergence to early flowering, applying pre-emergence has a lot of advantages. One is if your crop isn’t up your neighbour’s might not be either and can’t be damaged.

“Dicamba provides residual

tion after rustlers left a gate tied and the two animals locked in a corral without food or water.

“That was the worst part,” he said. “It’s one thing to have the cattle stolen. It’s another that they left two in the corral and they died.”

The cattle were stolen from pasture on Provincial Road 577 near the village of Olha.

A gate leading from a holding pen to the pasture had been tied with twine, leaving the cattle herded from the pasture only one route — evidently to a waiting vehicle.

There were 68 cattle in the pasture at the time.

Kreshewski says the financial impact from this loss is anywhere from $60,000 to $80,000, plus he’s now left with mismatched cows and calves because the thieves didn’t take pairs.

“They just got whatever they caught in the corral and loaded them,” he said. “They just took what they wanted.”

He has offered a $10,000 reward for information on who stole his Black Angus and Black Angus-Simmental cattle.

Late last week he said social media was providing very helpful tips, including when the theft occurred.

“Everybody knows something,” he said. “You just don’t know who to ask. That was a big help to figure out what people have seen.”

Ben Fox, president of Mani­ toba Beef Producers said this latest incident is one more in a troubling upward trend. MBP is hearing more reported cases of stolen cattle, he said.

“Manitoba Beef Producers is extremely concerned,” he said.

Farmers growing Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans need to take steps to avoid dicamba drift, Manitoba Agriculture’s Terry Buss said July 4 during the Crop Diagnostic School at the University of Manitoba’s Carman research station. The Roundup Ready 2 soybean plot Buss is standing in is dying because the dicamba applied to the Xtend soybeans on the left drifted over. Buss explained ways to reduce the drift risk.

control for a short period of time,” Buss said.

Research has shown earlier weed control boosts crop yields.

Monsanto also recommends applying dicamba with nozzles that produce coarse to ultra-coarse droplets such as Turbo TeeJet Induction and Air Induction. Those nozzles require application rates of at least 10 gallons of water an acre.

Spraying should take place when wind speeds are three to 15 kilometres an hour and at sprayer travel speeds of no more than 24 kilometres per hour. Boom height should be no more than 50 centimetres, Monsanto says.

Farmers shouldn’t spray during inversions or when wind conditions are dead calm, Buss said.

The spray might not penetrate the crop canopy and could move to a neighbouring field.

“There is potential for a lot of drift damage if we are not doing things properly,” he said.

While widespread drift damage is unacceptable, Buss hopes Manitoba farmers cut each other some slack where field edges meet.

“I think people are going to have to be reasonable... because it could be you causing the damage next year,” he said.

“I don’t think we saw as much of the minor drift that was going on and now we are going to be more aware of it.”

Farmers and their employees should also pay more attention to what they and their neighbours are growing to avoid not only drift, but spraying the wrong field, Buss said.

“What we’ve seen so far is the vast majority of farmers and applicators using our products are seeing great results, both from a weed control and efficacy standpoint, as well as the application itself and the products staying put.”

Cleaning all the dicamba out of a spray tank isn’t hard, but critical.

“Eight ounces of dicamba solution — not the concentrated product, but the solution left in a big sprayer filled up with something else — can cause (injury) symptoms,” Buss said. “If you leave three gallons of solution in that sprayer... and then fill up and go spray something else susceptible you can actually cause yield loss.”

Monsanto recommends triple rinsing sprayers after applying dicamba. The first rinse is with water. All filters and screens should be cleaned with an ammonia- or detergent-based solution.

The tank should get a similar solution and be agitated then flushed.

Follow that with a third rinse with water. allan@fbcpublishing.com

“It’s s h o c k i n g a n d g u t wrenching when a producer has to go through that. And that fellow in Rossburn is taking a $60,000 to $80,000 hit on his bottom line. That’s hard to recover from.”

As for who the perpetrators are “it could run such a wide gamut as to who it could be,” he added.

“Cattle producers are left with more questions than answers right now.

“Unfortunately I think it’s a crime of opportunity. I think its primarily due to the fact cattle are fairly valuable again.”

Kreshewski said the way to put a stop to this is for producers to start watching the countryside more closely and looking out for their neighbours too.

“I f y o u s e e s o m e t h i n g strange happening in the area pay attention to what’s going on,” he said. “Watch the vehicles. It doesn’t hurt to ask people what they’re doing there. If someone is on the road, just ask.”

Fox said at one time a range patrol was organized in the Dauphin area. “ T h e re w a s s o m e t h i n g called the Cameron Range Patrol, a group of landowners that organized and travelled the back roads and kept an eye on property and livestock,” he said.

“I think that’s something we may have to revisit again in parts of the province.”

CORRECTION

Clarification on June 29 article, ‘National Angus breeders get a taste of Brandon’ Staff

On June 29, the Manitoba Co-operator published an article entitled “National Angus breeders get a taste of Brandon.” The article mistakenly reported that research by Canada Beef asked Canadian industry stakeholders and consumers both in Canada and in select countries to rate agreement with various statements. The study instead asked stakeholders to rate perceived importance of various statements to consumer perception of the industry.

The Manitoba Co-operator regrets the error.

MBFI site gets funding

WHAT’S UP

Brookdale site is one of 27 projects supported across Western Canada by the Co-op Community Spaces program

BY LORRAINE STEVENSON Co-operator staff

T

he Co-op Community Spaces program is putting $125,000 towards an educational centre at Brookdale that will serve as a site for both onfarm research and a place to learn about the role of agriculture in rural and urban communities.

Manitoba Beef and Forage Initiatives (MBFI)’s Learning Centre of Excellence will be located at the research farm site near Brandon. Its construction will get started this summer and an opening date is now eyed for fall.

These funds are a great help towards achieving this long-term goal of MBFI, of a facility for both producers and the general public, said Ramona Blyth, MBFI chair.

“MBFI’s learning centre will become the hub in Manitoba first of all for producers so they can take forage and beef research and

adapt it to what will work in their operation,” she said. “It will also engage the urban population to learn where their food is coming from.”

It’s expected to be widely used by university students, 4-H programs and Agriculture in the Classroom, she added.

The site will include a meeting room with capacity for between 50 to 75 and will be fitted with audiovisual equipment to connect to off-site speakers.

A final cost hasn’t yet been tallied, added Glenn Friesen, industry development specialist with Manitoba Agriculture and MBFI committee member.

“We’ve just been moving towards gathering the funds to put it together,” he said. “Certainly the support from the (Co-op) Community Spaces program puts us in a really good spot.”

The learning centre is one of 27 projects supported this year through Co-op Community Spaces which has allocated $2 million in total towards support-

ing various projects including non-profits, charities and community service co-operatives.

Since launching in 2015, Co-op Community Spaces has provided $4.5 million to more than 60 projects across British Columbia, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

The centre was a great fit for the co-op program which aims to help organizations of all kinds improve the places they live, said Lorne Zacharias, general manager with Heritage Co-op.

“Heritage Co-op is supported and owned by members and customers throughout southwest Manitoba, so it’s important that we give back and make investments in our community and people, which is what Co-op Community Spaces is all about,” he said.

“Being able to work together with community groups across Western Canada is very foundational for us.”

The boom years With the arrival of the railways came a flood of settlers in the 1890s

BY ALEX CAMPBELL Manitoba Agricultural Museum

T

he 1890s saw the beginning of one of the most astonishing periods in Prairie history and Manitoba agriculture.

This boom was the result of improved world economic prospects and improved agricultural prices. Thousands of settlers came to Manitoba and took up homesteads, as hundreds of thousands of acres were broken and put into production.

A network of rail lines were thrown down to support the growing population across Manitoba, and chains of elevators appeared along with port terminals at the lakehead to support the movement of grain eastwards.

Largely unrecognized is the appearance of infrastructure to support agriculture and the grain industry; the Dominion Experimental Farm System (1886), Winnipeg Grain Exchange (1887), the Manitoba Grain Act (1900 revised 1903), Grain Inspection Act (1904) the Winnipeg Futures market (1904), Canadian Seed Growers Association (1904), Canada Grain Act (1912) and its associated Board of Grain Commissioners, Grain Research Laboratory (1913), Dominion Rust Research Laboratory (1925).

Underlying the Manitoba Grain Act and the superseding Canada Grain Act was the struggle between the farmers, the grain industry, railways and politicians over the direction and control of the grain industry during this time. This struggle resulted in the creation of organizations such as the Manitoba Grain Growers Association, the provincial arm of the Territorial Grain Growers Association which later transformed itself into the United Grain Growers.

Farmers remained concerned with rail freight rates even as two other railways began building across the Prairies, the Canadian Northern Pacific and the Grand Trunk Western. Farmers looking at a map of Canada noticed how close the Prairies were to Hudson Bay and tidewater. This route promised to cut freight rates to market. As early as 1885, demands

by Prairie farmers had appeared for a rail line to Hudson Bay. As a result of the CPR’s need for financing of a rail line into southern B.C., the government’s desire for this line to be built combined with farmers’ desire to see lower freight rates, the federal government and the CPR came to agreement on grain freight rates in 1897, the so-called Crow rate.

Later this agreement on grain freight rates was extended to the CNR. However attractive the wheat market was after 1890, Manitoba had been and remained a mixed

farming province. While the production of high-grade wheat earned good returns, Manitoba’s climate often resulted in the production of grain that was not salable and feeding it to livestock was a way of earning some return on this grain.

Livestock production was also aided by the appearance of the railway as in the 1880s and 1890s shipment of live animals to market was very common including live cattle to Britain. The slaughter industry in Winnipeg began to appear in the late 1890s and slowly live exports fell off.

As well, Manitoba was the Prairie province where the ideal of most farms being within 10 miles of a railway came the closest to being achieved. This was an important consideration when considering producing poultry, eggs, butter and milk, as well as hogs and cattle. Rail transport to market was accessible particularly as the railways operated “locals” on schedules in those days on their main and branch lines.

The provincial Department of Agriculture, while being one of the first departments formed when Manitoba came into existence in 1870, initially concerned itself with animal control and basic weed control measures. However, by the 1880s the department had begun to provide some aid to agricultural societies in Manitoba as fairs were seen as a way to improve the types of grain and livestock in use.

By the 1890s the department began to fund farmers’ institutes as a means of providing agricultural education. By 1891, 24 farmers’ institutes had been formed in the province and more were to come. By 1900, agricultural societies and farmers’ institutes in various locations were merging as it was realized their activities were quite similar.

The department began to provide small grants to various agricultural associations such as the Manitoba Poultry Association in order to support the development of the agricultural activity represented by these associations. In 1895 the province appointed a provincial dairy inspector.

A brief appointment was made in 1902 of a provincial entomologist, Norman Criddle, who assisted farmers in the proper use of a grasshopper control mixture consisting of Paris green mixed with horse dung, preferably fresh.

Farm mechanization in the 1890s and 1900s took great steps forward as mechanical traction in the form of steam engines and later gas tractors became quite common in Manitoba. The first gas tractor in Western Canada appeared at Crystal City in 1905.

As well, seed drills were introduced in the 1890s, engine gang plows in 1908 and labour-saving devices such as the Stewart sheaf loader. The Winnipeg tractor tri-

The first gasoline tractor in Western Canada was a 25-horsepower Waterous tractor purchased by the Beavis family of the Crystal City area in 1905. The technology was so new in 1905 the word tractor had not even been invented at that time and terms like agricultural motor were used. In 110 years the technology of the tractor has changed significantly with horsepower now reaching over 600 horsepower and incorporating some very sophisticated technology. And we may be on the cusp of radical change between auto guidance and the recognition that one can incorporate the power unit into various pieces of farm machinery and do away with a separate tractor.

als of 1908 to 1913 were a giant step forward for tractors.

However, at this point, the First World War broke out greatly affecting Canadian and Manitoba agriculture. Many young men left rural Manitoba for service with the Canadian Army which suffered heavy casualties on the Western Front. As well as the men who died, many others accumulated physical and mental wounds which they suffered from for the remainder of their lives. There are historians who suggest that many rural Manitoba communities never regained the energy they had displayed pre-First World War due to the losses that these communities suffered.

The Great War resulted in generally good prices for livestock and grain. However, rust took the wheat crop in 1916 and drought was experienced in 1917 and 1918. The wheat futures market was closed in 1917 as part of wartime price controls. The government set prices of grain in 1917 and 1918 which, generally, the farmers were pleased with. In 1919, the government decided that rather than setting a rigid price, it would set up a Canadian Wheat Board to market all wheat and return the proceeds to the farmer.

Farmers indicated at the time they would rather have a rigid price system than the board. The board set up a system where the farmer received an initial advance when the wheat was delivered ($2.15 a bushel, No. 1 Northern at the lakehead) and then would receive interim and final payments if warranted. Some farmers apparently used their wheat delivery certificates as wallpaper on their outhouses or worse.

However, the board announced interim payments and final payments ($.48 a bushel, No. 1 Northern) prompting farmers using certificates as wallpaper to recover them. It is not recorded if those who used certificates for worse purposes ever managed to recover them and claim their payments!

Alex Campbell is executive director of the Manitoba Agricultural Museum.

Thousands of settlers came to Manitoba and took up homesteads, as hundreds of thousands of acres were broken and put into production.

A photo from a 1908 Canadian Thresherman and Farmer magazine of a bachelor homesteader in his spartan abode. The abandonment of homesteads was always substantial as many homesteaders found they had chosen the wrong quarter, discovered homesteading was not the life for them or lacked the resources to develop the property to “prove up” on the title. Bachelors perhaps were the most prone to abandoning a homestead as they had no one to provide essential support such as meals, laundry and so on. Even companionship would be lacking.

The Winnipeg Stock Yards in Saint Boniface were set up to handle large numbers of animals destined either for slaughter in Winnipeg or shipment live east for slaughter. As you can see in this photo, beef animals were lean and quite mature before they went to slaughter, often approximately four years of age. They were usually grass fed and often housed in a barn during the winter. Not until the 1950s did feedlots emerge feeding a largely grain-based ration.

Agvocating through art We should take every opportunity we’re given to tell our story as farmers

BY SANDI KNIGHT Co-operator contributor

A

s farmers, we don’t often have the opportunity to celebrate and showcase the crops we grow. So, when the opportunity arises, why not take it?

Earlier this year, our local arts centre asked for exhibit ideas for its boardroom gallery.

Considering 2017 is canola’s 50th anniversary, I suggested a display of pictures, products and facts to celebrate. It was built around a blog post from last July entitled Simply Canola, and inspired by the Canadian Agriculture and Food Museum in Ottawa. It is commemorating Canada’s 150th birthday and canola’s 50th anniversary with a nationwide travelling exhibition, Canola: A Canadian Story of Innovation.

By far, canola is one of the most recognized crops we grow.

There is no doubt it is the shining star of agriculture across Western Canada every summer when it blooms. It isn’t unusual to see people stopping alongside the road to snap a picture, or take a ‘selfie’ against its gorgeous sea of yellow. Even those of us who grow it are taken in by the allure of those bright

By far, canola is one of the most recognized crops we grow. There is no doubt it is the shining star of agriculture across Western Canada every summer when it blooms.

and beautiful blossoms. Case in point – my extensive collection of photos from 2016.

With less than two per cent of Canadians living on farms, there is a huge disconnect between food producers and consumers. Surveys show consumers want to learn more.

We’ve been advised to tell our story, our way. So why not tell it through art? Especially when you can celebrate a crop many people are familiar with on a visual level.

My project is a pictorial diary of the canola we grew on our farm last year. Twenty-six photos, displayed in order by date, give a tour from emergence to harvest, from close-ups to landscapes to sunsets. I’m hoping they convey the pride we take in growing this iconic Prairie crop.

A display case with canola, a sample of products made from it and bright-yellow note cards with canola facts add an

element of education to the display.

Canola is so much more than a pretty backdrop on the Prairie landscape under the summer sun. The impact it has had in Canada and around the world in just 50 years is astounding.

As the world’s only “Made in Canada” crop, I’m pleased to have the opportunity to agvocate and celebrate it with my p h o t o g ra p h y i n o u r l o c a l community.

If you are in Portage la Prairie, please stop by and enjoy our farm’s views and vistas of Simply Canola. The exhibit is on display at the Portage and Districts Centre (11 2 St. NE, Portage la Prairie, Man.) from June 20 to August 5 in the Boardroom Gallery.

Hours: Tuesday to Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Note: Boardroom Gallery closed Wednesdays 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

These are just a couple of the photos in Sandi Knight’s Simply Canola photo exhibition, on display as part of the Canada 150 celebrations this summer in Portage la Prairie. PHOTOS: SANDI KNIGHT

tle “doesn’t help,” with July, August and September typically the lowest fat cattle markets of the year.

The small volumes were limiting buying interest from abroad, as it’s getting harder to put a full load together. Rather, most of the activity was local to local.

It was too early for calves to be coming in, Hill said, but some small producers were still gathering a few cows that maybe lost late calves.

Pasture conditions are a focus at this time of year, with Hill describing the local situation as “hit and miss.”

Some areas need rain, he noted, while others look OK from a moisture standpoint.

“If you’re in the right spot, you’re getting a little drink every once in a while.”

Haying is also underway in the province, with about 10 to 20 per cent of the first cut off in Hill’s area. He expected to see a big push over the next week, provided the weather co-operates.

attle auction yards around Manitoba are in full-on summer mode, with very little activity to report during the first week of July.

Many yards shut down completely for a few weeks in the summer, while the Canada Day long weekend added to the holiday mode.

One of the few yards still moving cattle through the rings during the week was Heartland Livestock Services at Virden, which will keep holding sales throughout most of the summer, closing only to get caught up on other jobs and maintenance around the yard during the week of July 19 and again the week of Aug. 2.

While there were only 347 head on offer at Virden, the small volumes are also being met with a lack of significant demand. Robin Hill of Heartland Virden said the declines in U.S. futures over the past few weeks were spilling over to weigh on Canadian prices.

Live cattle futures at the Chicago Mercan­ tile Exchange fell to their lowest levels in two months during the week. Meanwhile, grain prices were rising on the back of U.S. weather concerns, cutting further into the cattle market.

“We’ve definitely seen the butcher cattle drop,” said Hill. In addition to the bearish influence of the U.S. futures, he added the poor performance of summer fat cat-

The number of hogs on U.S. farms during the MarchMay quarter climbed 3.0 per cent from a year ago, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture report issued late June, implying abundant supplies through the coming year.

The outcome was the largest on record for the period since 1964, maintaining a string of quarterly record highs dating back to March 2016.

Still, analysts viewed the data as neutral because the results were close to expectations.

Analysts attributed t h e h e rd e x p a n s i o n t o improved producer profits, affordable feed and the need for more supplies to accommodate at least two new packing plants scheduled to come online later this year.

A record number of baby piglets that survived during the quarter helped farmers to be more efficient and boosted herd sizes.

USDA’s report showed the U.S. hog herd as of June 1 at 103.0 per cent of the year-ago level or 71.650 million head.

The result topped analysts’ average forecasts and was the most for the quarter since USDA began compiling data for the period in 1964.

Analysts, on average, had expected 71.597 million

head, or 103.3 per cent of the year-earlier herd.

The U.S. breeding herd was 102.0 per cent of the year-ago level, at 6.069 million head, up from 5.979 million last year.

The average trade forecast was 6.069 million, or 101.5 per cent of the previous year.

The June 1 supply of market-ready hogs for sale to packers was 104.0 per cent of a year earlier, at 65.581 million head, up from 63.302 million last year.

Analysts, on average, had estimated a 3.5 per cent rise, or 65.490 million.

Allendale Inc. chief strategist Rich Nelson called the record hog herd size “shocking,” but said it would have no effect on the market.

Industry observers for several months had expected record production.

Canola traders consider stress on crops from heat

Average quotes as of July 7, 2017 ($/tonne)

A stronger loonie limited gains in canola futures DAVE SIMS CNSC

I

CE Futures Canada canola futures have o f f i c i a l l y e n t e re d w h a t o n e a n a l y s t calls “the silly season weather market.”

Futures went through the proverbial roof last week on concerns that a Prairie heat wave would stress the crop during its critical flowering period.

The dominant November contract climbed $19.30, to hit $517.30 by Friday’s close. It also marked the end of the July-November spread trade, which dominated much of June.

The hot, dry bubble that entered southern Saskatchewan from the U.S. during the latter part of June eventually spread into much of Western Canada. Both Alberta and Saskatchewan are experiencing issues with soil moisture in certain locations. Heat wave warnings were issued in both provinces before the weekend began. The heat comes at a vulnerable time for the canola crop as much of the crop went into the ground late, making it susceptible to heat blast.

The loonie climbed above 77.5 U.S. cents by late Friday afternoon, which helped to limit canola’s advances.

Strength in the U.S. soy complex helped to underpin canola through the start of July.

The soybean market climbed sharply during the past week but its rise on the charts wasn’t quite as dramatic as its Canadian cousin. Still, the dominant November contract chalked up a gain of 60 U.S. cents to hit US$10.15 a bushel by Friday’s close.

Much of the U.S. Midwest is expected to stay hot and dry, which underpinned the market.

The wheat market has been on a rollercoaster during the past few days, as fears the market was overbought finally brought a halt, however temporary, to the rally. Hot, dry conditions are still forecast for much of the U.S. northern Plains, though, so endusers hunting for high-protein wheat are likely still in for a tough slog.

The corn market realized some gains during the past week. The dominant December contract climbed nearly 13 U.S. cents during the week, to hit US$3.92. The gains might have been higher but news that China will auction off four million tonnes of corn in the coming week kept a damper on the market. Precipitation maps indicate many corngrowing regions are simply too dry.

Hard red spring wheat bids correct lower Minneapolis and Kansas City September wheat futures were down on the week

BY DAVE SIMS CNS Canada

H

ard red spring wheat bids in Western Canada ran into some technical resistance during the week ended July 7, as the rally that had sustained a meteoric rise in wheat country subsided on ideas the gains were overdone.

Depending on the location, average Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat prices were down by $17-$22 per tonne across the Prairie provinces, according to price quotes from a cross-section of delivery points compiled by PDQ (Price and Data Quotes). Average prices ranged from about $291 per tonne in western Manitoba to as high as $307 in eastern Manitoba.

Quoted basis levels varied from

Average (CWRS) prices ranged from about $291 per tonne in western Manitoba to as high as $307 in eastern Manitoba.

location to location, but generally ranged from about $13-$23 per tonne above the futures when using the grain company methodology of quoting the basis as the difference between U.S. dollar-denominated futures and Canadian dollar cash bids.

When accounting for currency exchange rates by adjusting Canadian prices to U.S. dollars, CWRS bids ranged from US$226 to US$238 per tonne. That would put the currency-

adjusted basis levels at about US$40 to US$52 below the futures.

Looking at it the other way around, if the Minneapolis futures are converted to Canadian dollars, CWRS basis levels across Western Canada range from $52 to $67 below the futures.

Canada Prairie Spring Red (CPSR) wheat bids were anywhere from $1 lower to $6-per-tonne higher, with prices ranging from $209 to $222 per tonne.

Average durum prices were $24 to

$41 higher, with bids in Saskatchewan coming in at about $512 to $515 per tonne.

The September spring wheat contract in Minneapolis, off of which most CWRS contracts Canada are based, was quoted July 7 at US$7.6675 per bushel, down by five U.S. cents from the previous week.

Kansas City hard red winter wheat futures, traded in Chicago, are more closely linked to CPSR in Canada. The September K.C. wheat contract was quoted at US$5.43 per bushel on July 7, up by roughly 14 U.S. cents compared to the previous week.

The September Chicago Board of Trade soft wheat contract settled July 7 at US$5.35, up by nine U.S. cents on the week.

The Canadian dollar settled July 7 at 77.6 U.S. cents, up by roughly half a cent on the week.

You want pollinators to make their home on your range There are scores of native pollinators out there — and the more you have, the better

By JILL BURKHARDT Glacier FarmMedia contributor

T

here is a buzz on rangeand pasture lands. And we really need to pay attention to native pollinators and the benefits that they provide, says a rangeland ecologist.

“Pollinators are critical to rangelands themselves, and the plants that are there,” said Cameron Carlyle, an assistant professor at the University of Alberta, who is not only studying the benefits pollinators provide, but tracking how well they are doing.

The range of pollinator species is diverse but they roughly fall into two groups, he said.

“Bumblebees are the large fuzzy bees that we commonly think of when we think of bees. Solitary bees tend to be smaller and take many forms.

Bees aren’t the only pollinators — moths, butterflies and flies are other insect pollinators — but generally most pollination done by insects in our grasslands is done by bees.”

Pollinators have ‘co-evolved’ with native plant species, said Cary Hamel, conservation science manager of the Nature Conservancy of Canada’s Mani­ toba region. “ These ecosystems have been evolving for thousands of years,” he said.

Mo s t r a n c h e r s t h i n k o f rangelands in terms of their ability to produce grass for their cattle, but it goes beyond that. Healthy and productive rangelands have a diverse array of species, including native forbs (such as buffalo bean or pea vine) or introduced ones (such as clover or alfalfa).

“The productivity of that grass could be partially dependent upon forb (flowering plant) species that are present,” said Carlyle.

“Anything that is flowering is going to be dependent upon pollination and a lot of that is dependent upon insect pollinators.”

So if pollinators disappear out of the rangeland ecosystem, then some plants, such as nitrogen-fixing legumes, will, too.

“If we start to lose (legumes) then we would see declines in productivity,” said Carlyle.

“Not to mention the loss in diversity in forage types on the landscape.”

In much of Western Canada, we don’t know if native pollinators are on the decline. But Carlyle said other research indicates bumblebee numbers are falling. The exact cause isn’t known but there are indications that their ranges are shifting and that a changing climate is a factor.

“Climate change is likely going to impact these native bees,” said Carlyle. “They are getting ‘squished’ as the climate changes because southern areas will become too warm for them but their populations can’t move north fast enough.”

“Our research has found a fairly strong positive relationship between range health and bee diversity and bee abundance.”

Helping them out So what can grazers do to sustain a diverse and abundant pollinator community?

Keeping your range in good health tops the list.

“Our research has found a fairly strong positive relationship between range health and bee diversity and bee abundance,” Carlyle said. “In general, a lack of invasive species, a diversity of plants, and the maintenance of structure is more conducive to a healthy pollinator community,” added Hamel. “If you have land with flowers or flowering plants, that’s a great start. Continue to maintain those habitats.”

Diversity is also a good thing as shrubs and forest, grassland, and wetlands provide a variety of habitat for different pollinators. However, in the Aspen Parkland zone, keeping open meadows and prairie areas intact and free from shrub and tree encroachment benefits pollinators.

Cameron Carlyle

Having different types of grasses also helps.

“Bunchgrasses can be really important in terms of where they nest,” said Hamel, noting butterflies complete their lifecycle on the rangeland and the caterpillars will use grass as a source of food.

“Many native species are tied to native grasses.”

Having nearby tame pastures can also be a plus as they provide an additional food source for pollinators, which can travel several hundred metres or even, for some species, a few kilometres.

“Tame pastures usually have a significant floral component and they can play a role in conservation,” said Hamel, adding having different food sources

at different times in the growing season “makes the landscape stronger.”

Both Hamel and Carlyle have seen different pollinator communities use different stages of rangelands at different times throughout the year.

“On recently grazed rangeland, the grazing resulted in a reduced litter layer, we suspect,” said Hamel. “It meant the site warmed up early in the spring and it had a greater abundance of pollinators in the springtime and a greater diversity.”

Large ranches, for example, that have a diversity of land uses and grazing approaches typically have a greater diversity of pollinators. And when rangeland borders cropland,

particularly canola fields, both landscapes benefit.

“When we look at Alberta, or anywhere on the Prairies, there is this mosaic of different land uses — cropland and rangeland,” said Carlyle. “What we are also seeing is areas that have more rangeland, whether you’re in a canola field or in rangeland, if a piece of land is surrounded by more rangeland, you’re going to have more bees and a more diverse bee community.”

However, canola and other flowering crops only provide their abundance of pollen and nectar for a brief period, so rangelands are the key provider — and not only for food.

“Ma n y b e e s n e s t i n t h e ground or amongst dead plant material, so rangelands and other areas with undisturbed soils are important nesting grounds for bees,” said Carlyle.

“Areas such as cropland where soils and the soil surface are regularly disturbed are less suitable nesting grounds.”

Both Hamel and Carlyle said there is little research on native pollinators — but both are working on changing that.

‘As we learn more, I suspect there are going to be some surprises,” Hamel said.

Pork industry acting quickly on ractopamine finding in China

Summer days

Industry says residue issue shouldn’t disrupt shipments

BY ALEX BINKLEY Co-operator contributor

P

ork groups and the Can­ adian Meat Council are working together to avoid any disruption to exports to China in the wake of a residue complaint from that country.

China says it has found traces of the growth promoter ractopamine in a shipment of pigs’ feet.

“Canadian Pork International, Canadian Pork Council and the Canadian Meat Council are working with the establishment involved as well as with Canadian government officials to clarify this incident and to take correc­ tive actions,” said Pork Council spokesman Gary Stordy. “We are taking this detection very seri­ ously and want to assure Chinese customers that our industry is dedicated to providing consum­ ers a healthy, safe and nutritious product.”

The industry is confident in the integrity of the Canadian Ractopamine-Free Pork Certif­i­ cation Program, which sets the standards for meeting China’s requirements that meat be free of ractopamine, he said.

China was the third-biggest export customer for Canadian pork in 2016, buying 587,100

“We are taking this detection very seriously and want to assure Chinese customers that our industry is dedicated to providing consumers a healthy, safe and nutritious product.”

tonnes of product, behind the United States and Japan.

After being advised about the incident by the Canadian Embassy in Beijing, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued an advi­ sory to the industry that “China is looking at this violation as a sys­ temic failure in implementation of the Canadian Ractopamine-Free Pork Certification Program which could affect future pork exports to China. Furthermore, the Chinese authorities are testing Canadian pork for ractopamine at a wider level.”

The agency has suspended exports of pork to China from the

establishment, which has not been identified, said Ron Davidson, vice-president of the Canadian Meat Council. “Product en route to the Chinese market from this specific establishment is also being recalled and the plant involved will not ship until further notice.

“At present, the establishment is liaising with its suppliers and the CFIA in the conduct of a compre­ hensive review of all the factors associated with the shipment,” he said. “As soon as the preliminary investigation is complete, a report containing the analysis and find­ ings will be submitted to the CFIA for onward transmission to China.”

“We look forward to receiving more information and reviewing the compliance with the program at all levels of the supply chain,” Stordy said. “The Canadian pork industry values its relationship with China and looks forward to continuing a strong trading relationship.”

Ractopamine as a feed addi­ tive is allowed for beef and pork in Canada, the United States and Mexico but banned in about 160 countries including the European Union, Russia, China and Taiwan even though the Codex Alimentarius says it’s safe to use with appropriate withdrawal peri­ ods. Canada also allows it to be used in finishing heavy turkeys.

How to prevent parasite resistance to worms and flies

Developing and using good protocols will keep these valuable treatments working for you and your herd ROY LEWIS DVM Beef 911

W

e h e a rd ye a r s a g o about resistance with fly tags.

I believe the first one was called Bovaid and with no other tags on the market, researchers noticed resistance developing after a few years.

Soon other companies were making tags with a different family of chemicals in them, so producers could rotate them and not allow resistance to develop.

The great thing about fly resistance is the horn flies are visible on the back as they continually feed. So if the tags or other fly control methods become ineffective, flies are immediately visible on the back. This is especially true on bulls as they attract more flies — hundreds to thousands will be visible feeding if control is inadequate.

In the last several years, a new product called Cylence was developed as a pour-on for flies.

Its effectiveness lasts about two-thirds of the time as fly tags, but was used a lot because it was easy to apply. The cows did not have to be caught and it could be applied at turnout to pasture (or if cattle were processed during the summer for some reason).

We are now starting to see some resistance to the Cylence.

For producers who have used it several years in a row, flies can be seen on the backs of cattle way short of the usual effectiveness window. We are not getting the bang for the buck, so to speak.

If producers do see flies present much sooner than expected, it is time to change products. The best remedy is to keep cycling through the different tags and other pouron products (such as Saber or Boss as well as Cylence). I am sure there are other products or trade names out there I am not aware of and new ones are always being worked on. Your veterinarian can advise which product is best, depending if lice, flies, or even ticks become the significant parasite.

Length of efficacy varies, so timing is always critical in applying these products.

Rotation prevents resistance from developing and weight gains are improved on the cattle, which is what you as producers strive for. Next time you are out in your pastures, use binoculars and check for fly numbers. If processing, flies are very easy to spot when surface feeding on the backs of cattle, especially on the herd sires. If you do nothing else, treat bulls on turnout for breeding.

With internal parasites (worms), resistance (or lack of efficacy) has been shown in the U.S. and Canada to the pour-

Ottawa loses millions on import duties Duties of $168 million were not collected on dairy, poultry and beef

BY ALEX BINKLEY Co-operator contributor / Ottawa

A

significant volume of dairy, poultry, eggs and beef was imported into Canada without a permit or paying the appropriate customs duties, hurting both the federal treasury and farmers, says Auditor General Michael Ferguson in his spring report to Parliament.

Analyzing figures from Global Affairs Canada and the Canadian Border Services Agency found “authorizations, certificates, and permits for those items that were on the Import Control List… did not match the volumes authorized for importing annually with the volumes that importers declared to the agency as eligible for a lower rate of duty,” Ferguson said.

The report estimates that $168 million in duties were not collected on $131 million worth of chicken, turkey, beef, eggs, and dairy products, meaning that seven to eight per cent were therefore imported without the appropriate permits.

Dairy had the biggest hit with $81 million in unassessed customs duties and $32 million

of product entering the country without permits. Chicken was next with $50 million in unassessed duties and $20 million in products without permits. For turkey the figures $15 million and $9 million, beef $11 million and $41 million and eggs $11 million and $29 million.

The finding reinforces complaints from farm groups about mislabelled imports.

Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale, a former agriculture minister, said the CBSA was working “to deal with the import problems and is reviewing its processes for customs duties.

The CBSA will also continue to enhance the monitoring of its risk controls for corruption to ensure they are working as expected.”

Ferguson said Global Affairs Canada and CBSA “should better enforce tariff-rate quotas by reviewing the process of verifying permits. It should also explore automated means to validate accounting declarations for quota-controlled goods to be charged customs duties at a lower rate.”

Both organizations agreed to take action and hope to have a solution by this September.

on and injectable endectocides.

This has been a bigger problem in areas of the southern states where internal parasites are treated several times a year, but in Canada we are starting to see the same thing. Researchers are currently looking at this in Canada and a fair amount of resistance is being found.

So what do we do as a conscientious producer? There are several things you can do.

First, don’t overtreat. If cattle need treating, then treat them.

But that doesn’t mean applying a product such as Ivermectin every time they go through the chute. Just because it is now cheaper, some producers are treating more often than they used to.

You also don’t want to underdose, as that can also speed the development of resistance as well. This may have been previously the case in some instances when endectocides were very pricey. Producers apply according to weight and some have scales, so accuracy of dosing is very good. Others can estimate the weight very well.

In cases where you are not sure if treatment is necessary, consult with your herd veterinarian. He or she may perform a few fecals to see what the worm load is. (With fecals, some tests, such as the modified Wisconsin, are more accurate at detecting a lighter worm load.)

If just worms are the problem, a change to a different

class of dewormer is necessary.

All the pour-ons belong to the macrocytic lactones (a family of dewormers). Another family is the benzimidazoles, which includes fenbendazole (such as Safe-Guard) and a drench that contains albendazole (such as Valbazen). Safe-Guard comes in numerous formulations, so it can be drenched or added to grain or minerals (by prescription) for treatment at pasture in the middle of the summer.

Resistance does not appear to be developing at this time to Safe-Guard in cattle because of the quickness with which it kills the parasite. As with most parasitic conditions, a very low level of infection elicits some natural resistance in the animal.

I personally have seen this with tapeworms. Young bison may have a heavy load and yet the adult bison are clean and this was without deworming them for the tapeworms.

Tapeworms in cattle have not been deemed significant in reducing production so if this species is found on the fecal, it will also be secondarily eliminated by the Safe-Guard treatment.

Fo r t u n a t e l y i n m o s t o f Canada, winter puts parasites transmission on hold making controlling them a lot easier than in more temperate climates. If producers use diligence and don’t overuse the good products we have, alternate, or use products in combination to get a complete kill, we

hopefully can avoid resistance developing.

Checking fecals occasionally on a percentage of the group (and especially the poorest-performing animals) will identify whether internal parasites are a problem and what species or group of worms are the problem. Work with your veterinarian to devise a treatment protocol and determine what period is best to deworm for internal parasites and treat for external parasites (primarily lice) in your region. Removing these troublesome parasites will lead to much better production and with today’s high prices, these treatments should yield a good economic return.

Think of treating for flies and worms midsummer if, for instance, you are needing to handle or move the cattle. Consider cattle oilers for flies and a script of a dewormer in the mineral as two almost labour-free ways to treat cattle for effective results.

To measure worms, do fecals on calves or yearlings in mid- to late summer. To measure flies, watch them with binoculars to give you some idea how many the cattle have. Bulls as mentioned have the most so watch them. Using both these procedures if necessary should return economic benefits to the herd.

“Everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it.” Mark Twain, 1897

Warm, with scattered thunderstorms Issued: Monday, July 10, 2017 · Covering: July 12 – July 17, 2017 Daniel Bezte Weather Vane

W

e l l , f or once, our weather over the last forecast period played out fairly close to what the weather models were calling for and we didn’t get hijacked by an upper-level low. What didn’t pan out as forecast was the extreme heat that was expected to move in — at least, not yet.

The weather models have been consistent on building and pushing the upper-level ridge that has been bringing very warm temperatures to our west into our region. This was expected to happen early this week, but, thanks to an area of low pressure that rode overtop of the ridge, partially breaking it down in the process, we have yet to see the really big heat.

Our forecast period will begin with this ridge-rider low bringing lingering showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday as it tracks into Ontario. Eastern regions will see the most clouds and coolest conditions on Wednesday, while far western regions should clear out by the afternoon. High pressure is then

forecast to build in on Thursday and Friday, bringing with it sunny and warm temperatures.

Expect daytime highs to be in the upper 20s, with overnight lows in the mid-teens. We could see a few widely scattered thundershowers late Friday and into early Saturday as a weak system slides quickly through.

High pressure will then move back in over the weekend, bringing more sunny skies and warm temperatures. Western regions may see a few clouds and the chance of a thundershower late Sunday as another weak system tries to push into the high, though the probability of this is fairly low. Next week looks to start off very warm and humid, with daytime highs forecast to be in the low 30s and dew points pushing into the low 20s. With all of this heat and humidity we should expect some active weather, with # a high likelihood for scattered thunderstorms on any given#day.

Usual temperature range for this period: Highs, 22 to 31 C; lows, 10 to 17 C. Daniel Bezte is a teacher by profession with a BA (Hon.) in geography, specializing in climatology, from the U of W. He operates a computerized weather station near Birds Hill Park.

The hottest summers ever recorded

Mean temperatures for the ‘real’ summer months show four really, really hot years

BY DANIEL BEZTE Co-operator contributor

S

o far this July a good portion of southern Alberta and B.C., along with most of the western U.S., have seen a bit of a heat wave. With the weather models showing this heat wave largely sticking around over the next couple of weeks (at least), and possibly pushing eastward into our region, I thought it would be a little proactive to revisit the topic of summer heat waves here in Manitoba.

Surprisingly, trying to find and pull out heat wave data for southern and central Manitoba over the years is a fairly difficult thing to do. The difficult part is trying to determine how to define a heat wave. Is it two, three, four or more days in a row above 30 C, or should it be above 32 C? What if you choose three or more days in a row above 30 C as the criteria and you have a year that sees two days in a row above 30 C, then a 29 C day, then a couple more days over 30 C, another day in the high 20s, then back above 30 C? To me that is a heat wave, but according to the criteria set out, it wouldn’t count.

When you have to look at over 100 years of data you need to have some kind of criteria that will allow you to plow through the data fairly quickly and pick out years that have had some kind of heat wave. Trying to look

… if you were born in the early ’60s, you never would have experienced a really hot summer during your childhood.

through all of the data manually becomes a very long and tedious process; I know, I’ve tried. Since coming up with a single criterion that would work well didn’t seem to be working out either, I had to come up with another way of picking out years that have seen significant heat waves.

The method I chose probably missed some small and possibly significant heat waves, but I decided that if a year had a large or long-lasting heat wave, then the mean or average temperatures for the summer would be abnormally high. Also, nearly always, the general weather pattern over a period of a month or two tends to be similar at all three of our main locations. With that in mind, I took another look at the data for Winnipeg (which has the longest data record, going back to 1873, and began looking for anomalously warm summers by looking at the average temperatures for June, July and August combined.

The first thing I identified was

which years had really warm/hot summers. Now, the value I used was the mean June to August temperature, which is the average temperature for the entire summer season. For Winnipeg, over the whole 138 years of data, the mean temperature over the three summer months was 18.2 C. Just for fun I double-checked to see how all of the 138 values “fell” around this average, and as it should be, the distribution was nearly a perfect bell curve. That is, there was an equal number of years warmer and cooler than 18.2 C and most of the years (about 88 recorded values) fell within 1° of the average, with the number of years quickly dropping off the further you went away from the average. For example, only five years recorded a mean summer temperature greater than 21 C and only two colder than 16 C. From this, I decided a mean summer temperature warmer than 20 C would be my threshold for what a hot summer would be.

Going back in time, here are our warmest summers: 1988, 1983, 1981, 1961, 1959, 1955, 1947, 1937, 1930, 1929, 1921, 1919, and 1910. Interestingly, there were no really hot summers in the late 1800s, and while 1936 had a really hot July, the summer as a whole did not crack our list of the top hottest summers. Also, if you were born in the early ’60s, you never would have experienced a really hot summer during your

childhood, as there were no really hot summers from 1962 all the way until 1981.

When I looked a little closer at these values I decided that cool or cold Junes would often skew the values a little bit, so I recrunched the numbers, this time only looking at July and August, or what we in Manitoba typically refer to as our “real” summer months.

This time I bumped the threshold up to 21 C and ended up with four really, really hot years: 1930 had a hot summer, with a mean temperature of 21.2 C; then came 1936 with a mean temperature of 21.7 C. We had to wait until 1955 for the next hot summer, with a mean temperature of 21.5 C. Finally, the hottest summer of them all came during the early ’80s, when back in 1983 the mean temperature for the months of July and August came in at a sweltering 22.3 C. If I drop the July to August threshold down to 20 C, the number of hot summers jumps up a fair bit. The table here shows a listing of the hottest summers over the past 138 years based on mean July and August temperatures. For these two main summer months the 1980s remain the hottest decade, with five years recording summer values greater than 20 C. So far this decade we have seen two summers make the list; the question now is whether this year will end up joining them.

CROPS Tank cleaning key to avoid Group 2 herbicide injury in canola Agrimetrix co-founder Tom Wolf explores how a clean spray tank can curb unintentional damage in the field

BY ALEXIS STOCKFORD Co-operator staff

I

t may take a concentration less than 1/250th for Group 2 herbicides to start damaging canola, according to sprayer specialist Tom Wolf.

“That’s quite a dilute mixture,” he said. “You’d never think it would do anything.”

Wolf was one of many presenters at Canolapalooza 2017, held in Portage la Prairie June 22.

Group 2 herbicides came up more than once during the day, as farmers wrestled between proper tank cleaning and inconvenience.

“Group 2s, for a pile of reasons, are probably the worst ones (for canola damage,)” Ian Epp, agronomy specialist with the Canola Council of Canada, said. “They’re a really lowdose chemistry that takes very little actual chemical to be tied up in your sprayer to have a problem, to actually hurt a whole pile of acres.

And, Group 2s, given the chemistry, they’re more likely to be tied up in a sprayer.”

Sprayers 101, an online resource co-founded by Wolf, says ammonia may be required for thorough cleanout as Group 2 herbicides dissolve better in a basic solution.

The herbicide class is commonly used in other crops and contains enzyme-blocking chemicals that hinder a plant’s ability to create protein, causing it to starve.

In canola, symptoms can appear as undersized leaves, thick leaves or purpling at the cotyledon stage, according to the Canola Council of Canada. In older plants, maturity is delayed, leaves discolour or curl into “cups,” and yields may drop, while mature plants may develop immature offshoots, stunted meristems and aborted flower heads.

Early symptoms may mimic cold stress or nutrient deficiency, a 2012 herbicide injury resource published by the council said, although herbicide damage may be more intermittent.

While Group 2 herbicides are most commonly harmful to canola, some Group 4, 5 and 14 products have also been known to cause damage.

Canola plants showcase the effects of Group 2 herbicide damage.

“Once you’ve got the spray mixture diluted, you do have to clean and decontaminate all the plumbing that comes after the tank, because that is where many of our problems reside.”

Cleaning up Wo l f , w h o a l s o c o - f o u n d e d Saskatchewan-based consulting firm Agrimetrix, says tank cleaning is critical to minimize risk, despite the extra time it costs producers. “ There are two aspects to cleaning,” he said. “The first is to properly dilute what you call the remaining volume in the tank.

The remaining volume is that liquid that stays in the tank even after you’ve pumped it empty or drained it, and there’s a few pieces

of plumbing that you can’t drain: for example, the suction line from the tank to the pump and the return line from the pump back to the tank, which is used for pressure management or agitation.”

Remaining volume may be as much as five to 10 gallons, according to Wolf.

“Empty your tank as completely as you possibly can. We recommend that you do it by spraying your chemical out in the field — the remaining chemical. We do not recommend draining your

tank anywhere,” he said, warning that a single dump of product will hinder that site’s ability to grow vegetation.

Once the tank is as empty as possible, the remaining chemical must be diluted.

Producers may fill tanks completely with water before draining, a method Wolf says is effective, but time consuming and farmers also must contend with draining large volumes of diluted chemical.

Smaller batches may dilute more effectively, although Wolf noted that cleaning might take longer as multiple batches must be sprayed out.

“The third way is a new way, See Tank cleaning on page 18 »

and that is actually to add a second pump to your sprayer that actually then makes it into a continuous rinse,” Wolf said.

“The second pump is dedicated to the clean water tank.”

Wolf argues that the third option may save time as a producer flips over to the second pump without leaving the cab and sprays out excess chemical immediately.

Agrimetrix is advocating the third option, but has had limited producer uptake on the suggestion, Wolf said.

“Once you’ve got the spray mixture diluted, you do have to clean and decontaminate all the plumbing that comes after the tank, because that is where many of our problems reside,” he added. “We have significant surface area in our black rubber hose that goes from the sprayer pump to the booms in the various sections. That hose can hold on to chemicals and you have to flush it out of there.”

Screens and the dead-end space at boom ends should also be cleaned, he said.

stration plots, which showed increasingly sick-looking plants that had been purposely exposed to Group 2 herbicide.

Epp also pointed to Group 2 stacking within the soil, although the issue is more commonly seen in Sask­atchewan.

According to the Canola

Council of Canada, carry-over injury may vary widely within a field and is often more prevalent in areas with poor soil, low organic matter, acidic or basic soils or in low-moisture environments, one reason why the issue is not as prevalent in the wetter soils of Manitoba, Canolapalooza instructors said.

The council recommends that producers keep track of herbicide use and consider suggested recropping options assigned for each product.

Spray drift may also put a crop in contact with harmful herbicides. astockford@farmmedia.co

B RU S S E L S / R E U T E R S / The European Commission will propose extending by 10 years its approval for glyphosate, a spokeswoman said May 17.

A transatlantic row over possible risks to human health has prompted investigations by congressional committees in the United States, and in Europe has forced a delay to a relicensing decision.

A new study issued in March by the European Chemical Agency (ECHA) paved the way for the commission’s decision to restart negotiations with EU nations over renewing the licence for glyphosate, despite opposition from environmental groups.

The EU body, which regulates chemicals and biocides, said glyphosate, the key ingredient in Roundup, should not be classified as a substance causing cancer.

A spokeswoman for the com­m ission said it had “taken into account the latest state of scientific research and would “work with the member states to find a solution that enjoys the largest possible support.”

While the World Health O rg a n i z a t i o n’s c a n c e r agency, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), classifies glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic,” many other government regulators, including in the United States, see the herbicide as unlikely to pose a cancer risk to humans.

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has found that glyphosate is “unlikely to pose a carcinogenic hazard to humans.”

t’s a question as old as tractors themselves — which tractor pulls better?

The traditional way to solve these disputes is with a tractor pull, which has over the years become a popular attraction at fairs and carnivals.

Earlier this month, the Rivers Fair held its sixth annual tractor pull and photographer Sandy Black captured some of the sights.

Darren Paddock of Rivers on his John Deere A receives a bit of technical support from volunteer Bill Carter of Alexander during the tractor pull event at the Rivers Fair, July 6. Seventeen tractors competed this year, the sixth for the event.

Murray Gurr of Miniota, on his International 650, watches his wheels begin to spin as he comes to a halt at this year’s tractor pull at the Rivers Fair. Gurr and family brought six tractors to the event and he took first place in this tractor’s horsepower class.

Early-seeded canola is in the 50 to 70 per cent bloom stage.

Later-seeded canola is bolting.

Producers are applying fungicides for sclerotinia in fields that are high risk.

Soybeans are in the V5 to V6 stage with early-seeded soybeans starting to flower.

Corn and sunflowers are developing well with the warm weather.

Some early-seeded flax is starting to bloom.

Several producers have taken advantage of the warm and dry conditions to get some haying done. Hay crops look to be average in most areas.

Northwest Region High temperatures this week brought in a few thunderstorms, including a strong one Thursday evening. The Minitonas area received the strongest of the storm with some crops pushed down, along with broken trees. Soil m o i s t u re c o n d i t i o n s h a ve

improved in The Pas, however, they are still excessive with another 10 mm of rain on the weekend.

The high temperatures visibly advanced plant growth t h i s we e k ; h owe v e r, c ro p development is behind average for this time of the season. Approximately 25 per cent of the spring wheat crop entered the heading/flowering stage, while the remainder is in stem elongation. Although the fusarium head blight risk remains low for the area, some producers have applied fungicides. With 50 per cent of canola reaching the flowering stage and 50 per cent in the rosette, fungicide applications have started on canola. High daytime temperatures have been the main spraying challenge.

Soybeans and fababeans are in the vegetative stage of growth.

Peas continue to flower. Some buckwheat crops have started flowering. In The Pas weeds are flourishing due to difficulty accessing fields for herbicide applications.

Some bertha army worm traps in the Benito/Durban area have had higher counts this week.

G o o d f o ra g e h a r v e s t i n g progress was made this past week due to favourable weather.

Central Region Warmer temperatures have advanced crops and improved growth. Most of the region received trace amounts of rainfall; with a few locations in the southwest seeing up to 17 mm. Areas north of Portage la Prairie received 25 mm of rain. The wettest areas around MacGregor have dried up.

Although a few areas have good to excess moisture, much of the region would benefit from a rain to aid in seed fill.

The majority of cereals are growing well. Surviving winter wheat fields are in the softdough stage. Most spring wheat fields are flowering; some are in the milk stage. The majority of fungicide applications are complete. Post-anthesis nitrogen is being applied to a number of spring wheat fields. Minor lodging with localized heavy rains and wind has occurred, but fields have recovered. Stripe rust has been found in western areas. Oats are heading.

Canola fields range from bolting to podding, with flowering on the decline. Fields continue to be staged for sclerotinia fungicide timing; most applications will be done by weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end. Bertha army worm monitoring continues; numbers are increasing, but remain relatively low.

Colour and growth in corn has improved with the warmer temperatures, and fields are growing rapidly. Inter-row nitrogen applications and cultivation are complete. Most fields range from V8 to V13.

Flax is flowering; producers are scouting for pasmo. Iron deficiency chlorosis symptoms in flax have declined and affected fields have greened up.

Peas have received fungicide applications, and podding has begun. Sunflowers are budding.

Potatoes are flowering, and fields are being irrigated.

Dramatic changes are noticeable in soybeans. Most crops have grown through iron deficiency chlorosis symptoms.

Fields are flowering. Second herbicide applications are wrapping up.

Edible bean fields have also grown through iron deficiency chlorosis symptoms. Weed control is generally good. Buds have formed, flowers should be visible within the week.

Forage growth in pastures and hayfields has improved.

Yields are expected to be lower as stand height is shorter than normal.

Eastern Region Co n d i t i o n s w e re h o t a n d humid, with isolated showers and thunderstorms. Rainfall accumulation ranged from two to 15 mm. Soil moisture conditions on cropland across the region were rated as 100 per cent adequate. Soil moisture conditions on hay and pasture land were rated at 90 per cent adequate to 10 per cent short.

Producers made significant spraying progress this week.

With the exception of a few fields the second herbicide pass on soybeans, FHB fungicide application in cereals, and sclerotinia fungicide application in canola are complete.

Rapid growth was noted in corn and soybeans this week due to the warm temperatures. Corn is in the V6 to V8 stage. Most soybean fields are at the R1 and early-R2 stage.

Alleviation of IDC symptoms continued on many fields.

Foliar and stem disease levels remain quite low but there have been a few fields where root rots have caused moderate to severe stand losses.

Sunflowers are at early-bud stage, R1 and R2. Spring wheat is in full flower. Canola is flowering, some fields at fungicide spray stage and some past spraying stage. The canola crops remain good to excellent but there are some fields that may be suffering from flower blast.

Haying is in full swing with producers reporting that yields are not as good as last year.

Fertilized hayfields are producing about average yields, fields with hog manure are above

average, while yields on native hay and unfertilized fields are poor.

Interlake Region Warm temperatures and scattered showers were experienced throughout last week.

Rainfall amounts ranged from two to 16 mm. Arborg received the least amount at under two mm while Selkirk had 16.4 mm. Seasonal accumulation of growing degree days (GDD) is approaching 100 per cent of normal.

Spraying continued throughout the week as producers applied fungicides to suppress FHB in spring wheat. Spring cereals range from boot stage to fully headed. Winter wheat and fall rye fields have finished flowering.

Canola stage varies from bolting to 40 to 50 per cent flowering. Although some staginess is evident, most fields are in great condition. Bertha army worm larvae trap counts are quite low. With ample moisture and warm temperatures soybeans and corn are developed rapidly. Soybeans are growing out of iron deficiency chlorosis, helped by recent warm temperatures. Soybean stage varies from third to sixth trifoliate.

Corn stage ranges from V10 to V12. Peas are podding; fields look very good. There are no serious insect problems.

Timothy seed fields have mostly all flowered. Alfalfa seed fields continue to flower and producers should complete the bee release this week.

Haying has been in full swing, hampered a bit by the scattered rains. Hay yields are close to normal due to cool spring enhancing grass growth, while alfalfa yield and quality are affected by alfalfa weevil damage.

Putting the petal to the metal A 500-lb. monarch butterfly is now featured in the newly planted butterfly garden next to the Winkler Art Gallery. The gallery is Winkler’s former water treatment plant

BY LORRAINE STEVENSON Co-operator staff/Winkler

P

lanting a butterfly garden is a bit like hosting a party. You get everything ready, then hope those you invited show up.

Members of the Winkler Horticultural Society are now eagerly awaiting the arrival of their orange and black attired guests to their own ‘garden party.’

This spring the group created a specially designed butterfly-friendly garden on the grounds of Winkler’s former water treatment plant. Like other sites around Manitoba such as the Living Prair ie Mu s e u m , t h e g ro u n d s a re filled with flowers specially selected as a nectar feast for monarchs and other types of butterflies.

“Our main goal was to provide food and a haven for a few of our native butterflies and pollinators,” said Tanya Waino, a member of the WHS w h o h a s re c e n t l y e a r n e d her credentials as a Master Gardener.

“We put in about 40 diff e re n t v a r i e t i e s o f n a t i v e prairie plants.” The plants were sourced from Prairie Originals, a Manitoba company specialized in native prairie wildflowers.

Already alighted in the garden is a 500-lb. metal replica of a monarch butter fly — dubbed Teekay after its creator and namesake. Winkler welder Tim Klassen built it over the winter.

H e’s m o d e s t a b o u t h i s seven-foot metal artwork.

“It’s really hard to tell the shape of a butterfly,” he said.

“It would have been nice to have had a live sample.”

They’ll be here soon enough.

And their appearance will please Martha Bergman very much.

This garden has bloomed in her mind’s eye a long time.

Bergman said she wanted to see this garden created after reading how urban environments could plant habitat for the imper illed butterflies which are disappearing elsewhere.

“This was my dream. This was my vision,” said Bergman.

“I was always hearing about the destruction of habitat for the monarch butterfly and as a result the monarch being on the decline. I’ve had a passion for that for years.”

Members of the WHS shared her passion and put hundreds of hours into creating the garden on the grounds of the art gallery. Artists took inspiration from it too. Sue Denison was so inspired by what the hort group was doing, she set to painting a butterfly garden

in its honour. Then the hort society asked her to do it over again — in flowers. Denison’s floral design now blooms in front of Klassen’s metal art.

T h e b u t t e r f l y g a rd e n i s now eligible for cer tifica-

tion with several organizations, including the North American Butterfly Association, the Mo n a rc h Wa y St a t i o n Program and the Fort Whyte Naturescape Program.

The garden is just one part

of the WHS vision for its community. The group has been putting its painterly touch all over Winkler since starting up in 2000, designing many more gardens and planting tens of thousands of flowers in all corners of the city.

And it all began with $250 from the city to fill one planter with flowers, says Margaret Penner, chair of the WHS. “There were no other public plantings or floral displays in the city,” she said. “The council of the day was impressed.

They said prepare a budget for us. And the next year we started dreaming.”

Today the WHS's roughly 20 members continue to dream up and oversee city beautification projects. Members helped with the creation of Bethel Heritage Park at the public library. In spring they oversee

planting of as many as 20,000 annuals, helped by about 50 additional volunteers.

All this is done in a partnership with the City of Winkler, explains Penner. Now, each fall their group figures out flower needs and other resources needed to beautify the city and presents the plan and budget to city council for approval.

Valerie Harder, one of the WHS’s new members, moved here just a year ago. The city’s d i s p l a y o f f l owe r s l e f t a n incredible first impression on her, she said. So did meeting the people behind it all.

“I realized how hard they’d worked. Forty years ago, previously, when I’d lived in the area, it didn’t look like this,” said Harder.

She jokingly adds she ‘didn’t have a choice’ when it came to joining the WHS. “They were all so inviting,” she said. “These people are like flowers themselves.”

Meanwhile, their horticultural group will keep on creating living art. The site of this garden is so fitting, said Bergman.

“We are an art gallery of another type,” said Bergman. lorraine@fbcpublishing.com

Prairie fare Enjoyed any anthocyanins lately?

They’re the antioxidant pigments responsible for the rich colours of many fruits and vegetables

Blue and purple fruits and vegetables frequently are packed with these powerful antioxidants. PHOTO: THINKSTOCK

BY JULIE GARDEN-ROBINSON NDSU Extension Service

“

W

hat colour scheme should we have this year?” I asked my older daughter as we surveyed the flower pots we needed to fill earlier this summer.

“Mom, you always get pink and purple flowers,” she replied with a grin.

Yes, she knows her mother. I usually fill my cart with pink and purple flowers. Just to show that I can be spontaneous, I planted more yellow and white flowers in the mix this year. I still have plenty of purple and pink ones, though.

I like “anthocyanins” in flower and food form. Anthocyanins (pronounced “anthosigh-a-nins”) are the pigments responsible for the pink, purple and blue colours we are enjoying in nature right now. In some cases, purple and pink flowers can be eaten, but you might enjoy anthocyanins in fruits and vegetable form more.

Anthocyanins also are responsible for the colour of red apples, red and purple grapes, red onions, red cabbage, red-skinned potatoes, purple potatoes, strawberries, raspberries, red cherries, purple plums, eggplant, blueberries and many others.

Because of advances in plant breeding, we can buy seed packets to grow purple and red carrots, purple- and pink-skinned radishes and other colourful vegetables.

I bet you can guess what I bought this year for my garden. I also planted a couple of blue potato tubers. My daughter might be surprised when she sees the colours of the vegetables we harvest.

However, not all purple and reddish foods get their colour from anthocyanin compounds. Beets are coloured by “betanin” and tomatoes are coloured by “lycopene” pigments.

Anthocyanins are antioxidant compounds, which means they help protect the cells in our bodies from heart disease and cancer.

The effect of anthocyanins on brain health is being studied.

The Nurses Study, which followed more than 93,000 women for 18 years, showed a 34 per cent lower risk of heart attack among those who had three servings of blueberries or strawberries per week.

In an animal study, rats fed a red cabbage extract showed lower cholesterol levels, compared with rats not consuming the extract.

Results of a human study showed lower blood pressure readings resulting from consuming more anthocyanins.

Some research has shown that blueberry extracts may improve the ability of mice to get around mazes.

Have fun adding more colourful fruits and vegetables to your menu this summer.

School’s out for the summer, so here’s a science experiment about anthocyanin pigments to try at home whether or not you have kids or grandkids in your house.

Red cabbage salad 1/2 c. apple cider vinegar 3 tbsp. sugar (or honey) 1/3 c. canola oil or olive oil 2 tsp. celery seed 4 c. red cabbage, coarsely chopped 1 c. apple, unpeeled and chopped 1/2 c. carrots, grated 1/2 c. purple/red onion, chopped

This red cabbage salad is a good way to help you add colourful vegetables to your diet. PHOTO: NDSU

1 c. golden raisins or dried cranberries Black pepper to taste (freshly ground, if desired)

Red cabbage can be used as a pH indicator. In other words, you and/or your kids can determine how acidic your favourite beverages are and whether common items in your kitchen are acidic or basic.

All you need is about two cups of chopped red cabbage boiled until soft in water on the stove or in a microwave oven. Then strain the cabbage through a strainer into a measuring cup.

Place small amounts of the strained liquid into separate clear glasses, then add some lemon juice (or vinegar) to one container, some baking soda to the next container and your favourite soda pop to the third. When you add soda pop, lemon juice or vinegar, the cabbage juice should turn red, indicating it is acidic. When you add something “basic” (baking soda), the juice turns bluish purple.

Check out some YouTube videos on this topic for more ideas.

Enjoy a rainbow of colourful vegetables and fruits this season to harvest all the potential health benefits. Aim for at least 4-1/2 cups of fruits and vegetables daily. Whenever possible, eat the skin of colourful fruits and vegetables to get the health benefits from the pigments.

Here’s a tasty salad that features anthocyanins (from the red cabbage, red apple, purple/red onions and cranberries) and carotenoids (from the carrots). This recipe also is rich in vitamin C (with 35 per cent of the daily recommendation) and vitamin A (with 25 per cent of the recommendation).

Prepare the dressing by mixing together vinegar and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Add oil and celery seed and mix well. Set aside. Rinse vegetables and fruit; prepare as described. Add raisins or dried cranberries. Add vinegar mixture and toss until well coated. Add pepper if desired. Refrigerate until serving.

H

ere’s what I think.” Rose Jackson leaned back in her lounger and adjusted the brim of her hat in an effort to keep the blazing hot sun out of her eyes as she spoke. “I think we should talk to the kids about pooling the family resources to buy a cottage at the lake.

Think how much enjoyment everybody would get out of that.”

Andrew dug his feet into the sand and thought about that for a second. “Well,” he said, “it would give the kids something to fight about when we die.

That’s an important consideration.”

“That’s a benefit I hadn’t even thought of,” said Rose. “You see? This idea only has pluses. No minuses.”

There was a moment of silence. Rose squinted at her husband over the top of her sunglasses. “What are you doing?” she asked.

“I’m adding up the family resources in my head,” he said. “We’re not really that resource rich. It would have been better if my grandfather had had the foresight to buy a quarter section somewhere around Sinclair. Would have made the whole cottage-buying thing so much easier.”

“So what are you saying?” said Rose. “We can’t afford a cottage at the lake? Where did all our money go?”

“What money?” said Andrew. “All the money we ever had we wasted on groceries and clothes for the kids.”

“Aw geez,” said Rose. “I knew that would come back to haunt us.”

Andrew chuckled. “Speaking of wasting money,” he said, “I remember when Jennifer was six or seven years old and we took her to the fair and I gave her 10 bucks to spend and she went off with Kendra. Five minutes later she came back and asked me to buy her an ice-cream cone, so I asked her what happened to the 10 bucks I gave her and she said she still had it, but she didn’t want to waste her own money on ice cream.”

Rose laughed out loud. “You never told me that story,” she said. “That sounds like Jennifer though!

Speak of the devil,” she said, pointing down the beach, “there they come now.” And sure enough,

the two girls were making their leisurely way along the water’s edge towards Andrew and Rose. Rose waved and the girls waved back. A minute later they were settling down on the beach blanket Rose had spread out when she and Andrew had arrived a few hours earlier.

“Nice to see you Kendra!” said Rose. “We don’t see as much of you now that you’ve moved to the city.”

“I do,” said Jennifer.

“Well obviously,” said Rose, “since she moved in with you.” She turned her attention back to

Kendra. “How have you been? How’s school? How do you like the city?”

“Mom,” said Jennifer, “I don’t think she was expecting the Spanish Inquisition!”

“Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition,” said Andrew.

“It’s fine,” Kendra laughed. “I’ve been great.

School is ugh. The city is fine but I wouldn’t want to live there.”

“But you do live there!” said Rose.

“You know what I mean,” said Kendra. “I wouldn’t want to live there, like, permanently. I wouldn’t want to have been born and raised there and then just live there all my life as if there was no other option.”

“So what you’re saying,” said Andrew, “is that you wouldn’t want to be a city girl.”

“I guess,” said Kendra. “Although that sounds a little racist. Or cityist, or whatever you’d call that.”

“Ah well, we all have our prejudices,” said Andrew. “The important thing is to remember that city people can’t help being city people. It doesn’t mean they’re worse than country people, they’re just a little different.”

“Maybe a little worse,” said Jennifer.

“No,” said Andrew emphatically. “We are all equals, whether we live in the country or the city or the suburbs or wherever.”

“Except some of us are more equal than others,” said Jennifer.

“Well obviously,” said Andrew.

“I don’t think I would last a week in the city by myself,” said Kendra. “It’s soooo noisy and crowded and busy and you can’t set foot out of your door without tripping over another human being. They are just everywhere!”

“They really are everywhere,” said Andrew. “In the city that is. Out here in the country, there’s not as many as there used to be.”

“Well in four years when I finish school,” said Kendra, “there will be at least one more in the country and one less in the city.”

“It’s good to know that someone will be keeping up our rural traditions and way of life,” said Rose.

“Amen,” said Andrew. “And hallelujah.”

Incorporating a cardoon into the garden This large, bold plant will definitely create a focal point

Gardeners are often looking for what garden centres advertise as the “wow factor,” and one such plant is the cardoon.

By Albert Parsons Freelance contributor

L

arge bold plants can present a challenge when it comes to placing them in the landscape so that they are shown to best advantage. Their sheer size makes them even more difficult to use in small urban gardens where they are often out of scale with the other elements. Just one large plant, however, located in just the right spot so that its sculpture-like shape can be fully appreciated, will add great interest.

Gardeners are often looking for what garden centres advertise as the “wow factor,” and one such plant is the cardoon. You may be familiar with this dramatic plant as it is sometimes used in parks and on city boulevards.

The cardoon plant will usually be obtained from a garden centre rather than starting from seed, as the seeds must to be planted months in advance of planting-out time. A plant purchased for spring planting should be a good size and well developed if it is to have any hope of flowering before fall frost, as cardoons are slow growing and do not develop quickly.

The sculptural effect is created by the rosette of large, prickly leaves, which are almost dagger shaped. The foliage appears fuzzy because of a covering of fuzzy hairs; the leaves are grey green, and the hairy leaf surfaces give the foliage a silvery appearance. Its heavily toothed, thistle-like leaves are arranged

Cardoon can be underplanted with short or trailing plants such as calibrachoa. PHOTO: ALBERT PARSONS

in a large rosette surrounding the centre of the plant, which gives it a statuesque vase-shaped silhouette. Because of its size (cardoon can grow over a metre in height) it becomes a focal point in any landscape.

Cardoon is a close relative of the artichoke and its buds resemble artichokes, while the flowers, when they appear,

look like large purple thistle flowers resembling those often seen in roadside ditches — although much larger. The flower buds rise from the centre of the rosette of leaves. I prefer the appearance of the plants before they put forth flowering stalks, which I think detract from the sculptural effect of the plant.

Due to its long arching leaves, cardoon is quite a wide plant, often getting wider than it is tall. This makes combining it with other plants difficult because any located near it will have the cardoon’s leaves stretching out and invading their space. One method of incorporating other plants into a design is to underplant the cardoon with shorter plants so that its long leaves will arch over top of the shorter ones.

Some of the sun coleus, calibrachoa, or trailing plants such as miniature zinnias and Dahlberg daisies are possibilities. In a large public space, cardoon can

be mass planted on its own or used as an edging for a large bed that contains tall plants. In a smaller private garden, cardoon is more commonly used as a single accent plant or focal point.

Cardoon is often planted into the ground in large public gardens but in home gardens it is most frequently planted in a container. It is usually planted in the centre of a large container, then underplanted and encircled with accompanying plants. In a private garden, however, one or two cardoon plants could be planted in the ground, and located in the centre of a circular island bed will definitely create a unique focal point. If the bed is elongated, such as a rectangular shape or an elongated oval, a couple or even three could be planted in the centre. An island bed allows the architectural form of the cardoon to be totally visible and appreciated.

The large leaves of cardoon can be damaged by strong winds, so it is best planted in a location that is protected.

It likes lots of water and a rich fertile soil. Because of its thistle-like appearance, cardoon looks like it might be very drought tolerant, and in fact it originates in the dry Mediterranean region, but a lack of water will result in disappointing performance. As you view and visit gardens this growing season watch for cardoon. Think about how you might incorporate this dramatic architectural plant into your landscape next year.

Nellie McClung Heritage Centre to be set up in Manitou Committee works on ‘Bringing Nellie Home’

By Donna Gamache Freelance contributor

I

n southern Manitoba, two historic houses are in the process of getting a new home in the village of Manitou, where plans are underway for a new Nellie McClung Heritage Centre.

The two houses have connections to the famous activist and author, who lived and taught in that area in the late 1800s. McClung wrote 16 books but is probably best known for her leadership in the suffragette movement, which helped to gain the right for some women to vote in Manitoba elections, beginning in 1916 — an event which celebrated its 100th anniversary last year.

Both houses were previously part of the Archibald Museum, a private museum originally put together by William Wallcraft, who obtained the houses and decorated them as McClung had described them. Located about 14 km northwest of Manitou near the Mary Jane Reservoir, the museum had been operated by the Wallcraft family but had been closed down for a couple of years. The family then offered the McClung houses, including the artifacts and some clothing outfits, to the community.

The two houses, both furnished with pioneer artifacts and mannequins dressed in period outfits, were in need of some repairs and updates but it was decided that they were worth restoring. A committee of about a dozen, with co-chairpersons Bette Mueller and Robert McLean, was formed to work on the idea of “Bringing Nellie Home” by moving the

houses to Manitou. Fundraising and other planning began over a year ago.

Early estimates put the cost to be about $150,000 but new estimates say this may be closer to $200,000 because it was decided that a bathroom facility should be included in the estimate.

Several grants have helped with the fundraising, as well as many donations from local supporters and from many other parts of Manitoba. “We think it was Nellie’s name that brought in many of the donations,” Mueller said. “Especially because of last year’s commemoration of women getting the vote.”

For both houses it is a second move, each having previously been moved to the Archibald Museum. One building is the log house, built in 1878, where Nellie McClung (Nellie Mooney at the time) had boarded in 1890-91 while working at her first teaching position at the Hazel School. This house and its furnishings were

described in her autobiography, Clearing in the West.

The second, larger house, had actually been moved to the Archibald Museum from Manitou, so the return to Manitou is a real homecoming.

It had been built by the Scurfield brothers in 1896. Nellie and her husband, a druggist, lived in it from about 1900 to 1911, at which time they moved to Winnipeg.

The houses were moved from the Archibald Museum in February — in winter to facilitate the move — but the site where the committee had decided to place the houses was not yet ready, so they were moved to a private site on the south side of town. While in this spot, some small repairs have been done, and the houses are being repainted.

The plan is to move the two buildings to their permanent home sometime this month, once foundations have been prepared. The new location will be

beside a small log house which already sits at the entrance of Manitou, along Highway No. 3 and already operates as the tourist centre.

A grand opening is being planned for September 8, during the Honey, Garlic and Maple Syrup Festival, although the committee hopes that the work will be finished before then. Janice Filmon, lieutenant-governor of Manitoba, is scheduled to be

there, and many of those who donated funds are expected to attend.

“We have had a really good committee,” said Mueller, “chiefly because we all have different skill sets. Some members knew who to hire to move the buildings, and how to deal with the necessary red tape. Others are good at planning the opening, or fundraising, or arranging the fixtures or clothing or landscaping details.”

The committee hopes the grand opening of Nellie McClung Heritage Centre will bring a good crowd. “I really feel that this will be important to our heritage, to tourism and to education,” said Mueller.

This Old Elevator

I

n the 1950s, there were over 700 grain elevators in Manitoba. Today, there are fewer than 200. You can help to preserve the legacy of these disappearing “Prairie sentinels.”

The Manitoba Historical Society (MHS) is gathering information about all elevators that ever stood in Manitoba, regardless of their present status. Collaborating with the Manitoba Co-operator it is supplying these images of a grain elevator each week in hopes readers will be able to tell the society more about it, or any other elevator they know of.

MHS Gordon Goldsborough webmaster and Journal editor has developed a website to post your replies to a series of questions about elevators. The MHS is interested in all grain elevators that have served the farm community.

Your contributions will help gather historical information such as present status of elevators, names of companies, owners and agents, rail lines, year elevators were built — and dates when they were torn down (if applicable).

There is room on the website to post personal recollections and stories related to grain elevators. The MHS presently also has only a partial list of all elevators that have been demolished. You can help by updating that list if you know of one not included on that list.

Your contributions are greatly appreciated and will help the MHS develop a comprehensive, searchable database to preserve the farm community's collective knowledge of what was once a vast network of grain elevators across Manitoba.

Please contribute to This Old Grain Elevator website at: http://www. mhs.mb.ca/elevators.

You will receive a response, by email or phone call, confirming that your submission was received.

Goldsborough is interested in hearing all sorts of experiences about the elevators — funny, sad, or anything in between. Readers willing to share their stories can leave messages at 204-474-7469.

The Cargill elevator at Elm Creek is considered the “granddaddy” of the concrete terminals that now dominate the Prairie landscape.

Built in 1976, along with an identical twin at Rosetown, Saskatchewan, the elevator had an initial 460,000-bushel capacity, by far the largest of any country elevator in Manitoba at that time. It had been built using a slipform process that was increasingly popular for the construction of large, concrete structures across Canada, including Toronto’s CN Tower. The elevator’s capacity was increased over 40 per cent over the next few years but it is now dwarfed by other terminals up to five times its size. Photo: Bernie Freeman (2007)

A

t Ag in Motion, seed, crop protection and fertilizer companies, as well as grower associations and industry members will showcase field crop products as they should be seen — in the ground.

Ag in Motion is home to over 100 acres of crop plots from over 25 companies and organizations, with both numbers growing every year. This number is the highest of any outdoor show in Western Canada.

“Not only is this a great way to see a large number of companies in one place, it also provides an excellent opportunity for demonstrations to take place from individual companies and organizations. It’s the best place for conversations and education to take place,” says Dan Kuchma with Ag in Motion. “We give farmers the chance to see for themselves the different options available to them, and the tools to make the most informed decisions.”

New for 2017 are expanded plots for a number of companies, including an enormous 500x170-foot plot from Crop Production Services, as well as the addition of eight companies and associations to t h e l i n e u p. Sa s k a t c h e w a n Pulse Growers is among the expanded exhibitors this year, and has added large-scale pulse crop plot demonstrations for attendees to learn about growing pulses in addition to the main site where varieties will be showcased.

The pulse demo area will feature weed control in peas,

Eight new companies and organizations will have displays at this year’s show. PHOTo: farmboy productions

lentils, and soybeans, showcasing herbicide layering options for increased weed control and a demonstration on pulse fertility, which will examine the nutrient requirements for pulses.

“Weed control is the No. 1 concern with pulse growers and we wanted to showcase the options that are available to them,” says Sherrilyn Phelps, agronomy manager, Saskatchewan Pulse Growers.

“The fertility project is more of

an educational demonstration to show growers that nutrients are still important for growing pulses and management of phosphorus is something that we should be paying more attention to.

Phelps adds, “Our demos will help attendees gain a better understanding of how to manage weeds and resistance using an integrated approach combining agronomics and herbicides, and will help them implement what they learn on their

own farm. Understanding nutrient requirements for pulses is important for optimizing yields and maximizing returns. A healthy crop can better fight off disease and withstand stress, and a balanced approach to nutrient management will help ensure sustainability of a rotation.”

A g i n Mo t i o n we l c o m e s FP Genetics, Yara, Farmers of North America, Thunder Seeds, Sask Canola, Taurus Ag, Northern Quinoa Production

Corp. and Gowan, all featuring crop plots for the first time at the show in 2017.

SPECIAL EVENT FEATURE

Managing herbicide resistance Gowan Canada will host a speaker series on Wednesday and Thursday

D

iversity is defined in the dictionary as “the condition of having or being composed of differing elements.”

In weed control, diversity means using multiple strategies, or an integrated weed management approach. For herbicides, this means using all of the modes of action available to reduce the risk of weed resistance.

This may be obvious, but we aren’t doing great when it comes to diversity in our herbicide choices. The latest estimates are that as much as 50 per cent of the crop area in Western Canada could be affected by Group 1and/or Group 2-resistant wild oats. Market research shows 74 per cent of wheat acres, 61 per cent of barley acres, 100 per cent of pea acres and 42 per cent of canola acres saw a Group 1 or Group 2 in 2015. This is compared to Group 3s and 8s which were used on less than five per cent of acres.

The imbalance exists because of the ease of use of post-emergent herbicides compared to soil residuals. Also, the use of postemergent herbicides fits no-till and min-till systems very well.

The latest estimates are that as much as 50 per cent of the crop area in Western Canada could be affected by Group 1- and/or Group 2-resistant wild oats. photo: government of manIToba

However, in some cases the exclusive use of post-emergent herbicides has resulted in resistance. And with increased use of glyphosate we are now seeing resistance to some weeds and researchers warn that glyphosate-resistant wild oat could be on the horizon.

It is time to get a more balanced approach. Increased use of Group 3 and Group 8 is a good component of a weedresistance management strategy. A benefit of adding a soil

residual is the majority of the weeds won’t be exposed to the post-emergent herbicide. A soil residual will remove around 80 per cent of weeds before they emerge, drastically reducing exposure to the post-emergent mode of action.

If you are already incorporating Group 3 and Group 8 in your plans — great job. If not, start now — before resistance becomes too costly. Like for farmers in Australia, the U.K. and U.S. who now spend over $100

per acre on herbicides in some cases or are paying people to hand rogue weeds in others.

Gowan’s message is straightforward: change your approach before you are forced to!

Learn more about resistance management from technical experts from the U.K. and Australia during your trip to Ag in Motion. On Wednesday, July 19 and Thursday, July 20, Gowan Canada will be hosting a speaker series.

Rob Plaice, technical manager for Gowan United Kingdom and Ireland will provide an overview of herbicide-resistance issues in the United Kingdom. Next up will be Craig Hole, an Australian farmer and agronomist at Landmark, one of Australia’s largest distributors. He will provide an overview of herbicide-resistance issues faced by Australia’s agriculture industry.

These educational sessions begin at 9:30 a.m. in the Agri-Trend Knowledge Tent (Booth 645). Seating is limited, and priority will be given to pre-registered guests. To register, visit www.aginmotion.ca/ managingresistance.

AIM features first-ever combine demo Six machines will make daily passes through a field of fall rye

T

here’s never been anything like this in Western Canada before.

See, first hand, how a fall rye crop feeds into and passes through six machines as they line up side by side to harvest in the Ag in Motion demonstration field.

Fall rye has been seeded at the Ag in Motion site and has been growing all summer long in order for it to be as mature as possible for July’s demonstrations and to best simulate fall harvest conditions. The 15-acre plot will be straight cut by the participating combines.

This demonstration will feature examples of these monstrous machines from manufacturers like Claas, Versatile, New Holland, John Deere and Massey. Redekop will also have a presence in the demo, showcasing its unique combine header.

The combine demonstration will kick off the Ag in Motion field demos at 12:30 p.m. Directly following, at 1:30 p.m., the tillage demonstration will highlight and compare equipment for one-pass seedbed preparation. An interactive Sprayer Ride ’n’ Drive will be ongoing daily from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. as well.

Special Livestock Central guest Curt Pate — internationally recognized stockmanship instructor. photo: supplied

More livestock programs this year Cattle farmers can not only take a look at the various systems on offer, they can actually see them in action

L

ivestock Central at Ag in Motion has expanded the scope of experience for visitors this year. This is sure to be a marked stop for livestock producers on their visit to the expo.

BMO Financial Group is proud to present Livestock Central this year as it celebrates its bicentennial.

“We are overwhelmed by the enthusiasm we have seen to expand this area of the expo from exhibitors and industry stakeholders alike,” says Michael Hargrave, livestock co-ordinator for Ag in Motion. “Livestock Central will have exhibitors and events to pique the curiosity of every visitor coming through.”

New this year, Wednesday, July 19 will be “Beef Day.” As part of Beef Day, a new speaker series organized in partnership with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture will focus on topics specific to the production and care of beef cattle.

A key feature of Beef Day in the Livestock Pen will be a low-stress cattle-handling demo featuring internationally recognized stockmanship instructor Curt Pate.

“With the growing public scrutiny of livestock production, improving our livestock-handling practices will help the sustainability of the cattle industry,” Pate says. Be sure to mark down the start of Pate’s demos in the Livestock Pen at 12:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.

The livestock-handling demo has grown this year to include more handling systems from 2W Livestock Equipment, Stampede Steel Inc., Morand Industries and Tuff Livestock Equipment.

Starting every day at 11 a.m., cattle farmers can not only take a look at the various systems on offer, they can actually see them in action, providing a first-hand experience of what a new system can do for their operation.

Eliminating handling frustrations, reducing processing time, and ultimately providing the best environment possible for working directly with animals is an interest to anyone working with livestock.

Dairy farmers attending Dairy Day, the first day of the show, can start their morning off right with a delicious brunch while networking with friends and colleagues.

The VIP Dairy Producer Brunch will take place in the Special Events Tent from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Look for your invitation and admission pass in your provincial milk marketing board mailing.

Get close to the technology

AIM attendees are encouraged to get a hands-on, personal feel for the equipment

A

g in Motion is different from other farm shows because it is the best place to see demonstrations live in the field. Large equipment, large crowds and an abundance of information create the highenergy environment that surrounds the large-scale field demos each year. It’s the perfect setting to compare machines like combines or planters.

But Ag in Motion’s outdoor setting also allows for exhibitors to host their own demonstrations throughout the show.

These allow a more handson, close-up approach and are a great option to maximize your time learning about new technology with an exhibit that is very relevant to your operation.

Exhibitors often have machinery, tools, or technology to demonstrate, and attendees are encouraged to get a hands-on, personal feel for what they’re interested in. Attendees can find experts in what they’re looking for at each booth space, giving them the perfect chance to ask questions and learn.

From tire inflation to ditchers and fertilizer equipment to truck test drives, there are many different individual demonstrations happening this year.

hoosing the right machine the first time saves growers time and money – in the purchase and in the application.

Investing in a sprayer is a large financial commitment, so it’s important to know what’s on the market to truly meet your farm’s needs and to understand how the different models compare in performance. That’s why a new Sprayer Ride ’n’ Drive will be featured for the first time ever at Ag in Motion this year.

“One of the great features of an outdoor show is the ability of attendees to test out and learn about equipment, no matter how big or small, before they buy,” says Paul Roper, Ag in Motion demonstration co-ordinator. “The Sprayer Ride ’n’ Drive is a great chance to learn about different equipment makes and models, and speak to the people who know them best.”

Taking place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily in the Demonstration Field, each company will have its own “pit” area in the large demonstration space. Sprayers will be lined up and driven one at a time by interested buyers for a maximum of 10 minutes; however, serious buyers will have the opportunity for further testing following the Ride ’n’ Drive’s conclusion. It will be ongoing throughout the day with no appointments, so interested attendees should arrive early to try out any equipment they may be interested in purchasing.

Attendees can expect to see and test equipment from manufacturers like Massey, New Holland, John Deere and Versatile.

Last week's answer

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes.

The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
