Pushing the boundaries of intercropping

anitoba hog farmers whose barns are affected by the ongoing porcine epidemic diarrhea (PEDv) outbreak are running out of space to put the surviving pigs.

Five unaffected barns recently had to receive pigs from locations battling the virus due to space constraints, Dr. Glen Duizer of Manitoba’s chief veterinary office said last week.

While the pigs being transferred to other facilities are no longer shedding the virus, offi-

here are some unusual crop combinations springing up southwest of Melita.

Experimental intercrops are among the Westman Agricultural Diversification Organization (WADO) projects this year, including flax intercropped with soybeans and hemp intercropped with legumes. Pea-canola, an emerging combination already used on some Manitoba farms, and

the already established wheatlegume mix are also under the microscope, with an eye to best management practices.

Intercropping trials were on display during the July 25 WADO field day.

First-time combos One of WADO’s more experimental mixes, Manitoba Agriculture diversification specialist and WADO manager Scott Chalmers said, is flax and soybeans. They were grouped at least partially for disease control and to explore yield effects.

Crop maturity lines up well between the two crops, he said, and both share a n u m b e r o f re g i s t e re d herbicides for a range of weed groups, easing weed management.

“The main idea is just to observe overyielding, which is traditionally seen in intercropping,” Chalmers said.

Overyielding is the additional production observed from a community of plants, when compared to the same crops in a monoculture.

P re v i o u s re s e a rc h h a s introduced flax as a “nurse”

c ro p w h e n i n t e rc ro p p e d with other pulses. Results out of Saskatchewan’s South East Research Farm in 2014 found that a chickpea-flax intercrop showed a 17 per cent instance of chickpea aschocyta, compared to 51 per cent in monocrop plots.

WA D O re s e a rc h e r s w i l l examine how flax and soyb e a n s g r ow i n g t o g e t h e r affect soil nutrition and any impact on seed quality, Chalmers told the crowd July 25.

“This study now provides us with a baseline that we can use when working with meat processors to help ensure we have a high-quality and transparent food supply,” said Prof.

Robert Hanner, who worked on the study with a team of researchers.

Published this week in Food Control, the study revealed a majority of the mislabelling occurred with sausage meat that was substituted with another type of meat. Some sausages labelled as beef also contained pork. Others labelled as chicken also contained turkey and one pork sausage sample contained horsemeat.

The team of researchers used DNA bar-coding along with digital PCR technology to determine which meats were in the sausage samples.

“There is DNA in nearly every cell of every organism so bar-coding can be applied to products such as ground meats that would be difficult to identify with other means,”

said Hanner. “In this study, bar-coding was used to identify the dominant meat type in the sausage samples.”

For beef, pork, chicken and turkey sausages, products were considered “contaminated” when more than one per cent of another meat was detected.

Findings revealed that five out of 15 sausage packages listed as turkey were entirely chicken.

The making of a green manure mix Grain-only operation one of several tours organized by the Manitoba Organic Alliance

Manitoba’s bean harvest on track

F

or organic grain farmers without livestock such as Carnegie Farms north of Brandon, green manure has become a mainstay for nutrient management.

Visitors to the fully organic operation’s field day Aug. 4 took in two green manure mixes, ranging from peas, beans, oats and buckwheat to a field with all of the above, plus kale, phacelia, mustard and sorghum. “ The more diversity, the better,” said Allen Krueger of Carnegie Farms. “That’s kind of the key and so that’s what we’re focusing on with this (field) is more diversity.

Every plant addresses different things in the soil, whether it’s nutrient cycling or just building the biology. The reason we went with less on the other quarter was just simply timing of the year and moisture levels.”

Cereal crops, the farm’s specialty, will bracket every third year when green manure is sown. Carnegie Farms certified its first organic field in 2002 and has since fully transitioned.

Like all producers opting for green manure, Krueger and Carnegie Farms face the challenge of tailoring each mix for agronomics and farm goals while also developing a multispecies mixture that will grow well together.

W h i l e K r u e g e r a c k n ow l edged that adding livestock would be ideal, green manure is the spearhead for Carnegie Farm’s fertility plan.

“For us, we don’t have access to animal manure on our farm,” he said. “We don’t have animals; we’re just strictly a grain farm and so our green manure is our focus on building fertility and biology in the soils. We’re trying to tailor our mixes just for that purpose.”

The densely vegetated, multi-species mix also plays a role in weed suppression, choking out unwanted interlopers such as thistle, a weed that stood out during the tour for its difficulty to eradicate.

The stand is usually plowed down at 20 per cent flower, a stage Krueger said was chosen to optimize sugar content, but before weeds have gone to seed.

ing with other farmers too is a good deal. You learn lots of things,” he said.

Organic alliance tours

Grazing potential While the tour focused on grain production, Bryce Lobreau, who moves up to 1,800-head of organic beef cattle per year on his farm near Pipestone, says the day’s lessons had implications on mixture development, seeding rate, seed timing and termination for his livestock-oriented operation.

“We would be grazing it in another week or two,” he said, comparing Krueger’s stand to his own farm. “We’d be turning cattle out here and intensive grazing it because there’s really no nutrient loss from grazing, so we would get the benefit of the cattle gaining weight and utilizing the forage and still gaining all the nutrients.”

Intensive, or mob, grazing has been advocated by for-

age and soil health experts as a means to jump-start root growth and increase organic matter, infiltration and nutrient cycling in pasture land.

The livestock producer said he has seen up to two pounds gain a day in his herd when high-quality forage such as green manure is grazed.

Most of his 1,200 acres of cropland is put to silage, he said, although his farm has

also grown vegetables since it became organic in 2009.

Gl e n n E l l i o t t , a l s o f ro m Pipestone, also cited lessons from the day. Elliott has been organic for 15 years and has frequently integrated green manure on a similar threeyear cycle to Carnegie Farms.

The Aug. 4 tour was one of several organized by the Manitoba Organic Alliance and supported by the Prairie Organic Grain Initiative this summer.

Tours have included cover cropping, dair y operation, organic seed processing and cleaning, and equipment considerations in large-scale organic transition.

Kate Sjoberg, co-ordinator with the Manitoba Organic Alliance, hopes tours will lead to more connection between the province’s organic farmers.

“This is the best outcome we could hope for,” she said.

“It’s really nice to have a spot where the producer is willing to share what they’re doing on their particular farm and then the value added is that people get to see each other’s faces and share what they’re doing, so this is an incredibly useful event, I think.”

Tour topics varied in an effort to better match producer interests, Sjoberg said. The Manitoba Organic Alliance has encouraged producers to share feedback of the tours in order to better plan programming.

Williment Farm and Ranch in central Manitoba is the next stop on the Manitoba Organic Alliance schedule. The tour will explore hemp production and will take place near the end of August. astockford@farmmedia.com

Manitoba’s dry edible bean crop should come in this harvest with numbers roughly the same as last year, from where a provincial specialist sits.

“This year, I would say right now, depending on how things settle out in the next little while, we’ll be at least equal to last year, if not a bit better,” said Dennis Lange, pulse crops specialist with Manitoba Agriculture at Altona.

Beans are just now entering the critical period when the story of this year’s growing season will be written, he added.

Many key bean-growing areas have had good growing conditions through the summer and timely rains have lifted prospects in some areas, he said, but more rain right now would be ideal.

“That’s what makes the yield on beans, whether it’s soybeans or dry beans — that moisture when those pods are filling.”

Disease pressure has been light, other than a few areas with denser canopies reporting white mould, he said, adding there haven’t been any other serious yield- or quality-limiting issues.

Crop insurance acreage numbers of 122,000 acres of dry edible beans in the province are higher than 112,000 acres seeded in 2016.

Overall average yields were slightly down last year at 1,650 lbs. per acre, Lange added, compared to an average overall of 1,800 lbs./ac. in 2015.

Grain grading changes for Western Canada The Canadian Grain Commission has announced several grain grading changes for the 2017 to 2018 crop year in Western Canada that will take effect August 1, 2017: • It has added an ergot tolerance of 0.05 per cent in all grades of fababeans and chickpeas; • Changed the tolerance for grasshopper and army worm damage from eight per cent to six per cent in No. 3 Canada Western Red Spring, No. 3 Canada Western Hard White Spring and No. 3 Canada Northern Hard Red wheat.

The tolerance for grasshopper and army worm damage was tightened after research showed that eight per cent grasshopper and army worm damage can impact end-use functionality.

The commission is posting an up-to-date Official Grain Grading Guide on its website July 28, 2017. The updated guide comes into effect August 1, 2017.

OPINION/EDITORIAL

Preparing for an uncertain future It’s a hot, dry summer on the Prairies, so much so that farmers farther west have started to harvest their cereal crops for livestock feed.

A heat wave nicknamed “Lucifer” is scorching much of Europe this summer and climate change experts are suggesting these are a greater threat to human life in the short term than rising sea levels, also attributed to climate change.

Laura Rance Evidence continues to mount that these GFM Editorial Director conditions could become the new normal.

A report published in the journal Weather puts 2015 and 2016 in the record books as being the warmest on record, with global temperatures reaching 1 C above pre-industrial levels.

Many still debate whether global warming is actually caused by humans but fewer deny that it’s occurring.

Another report out last week in the journal Nature said that it’s taking longer for regions affected by drought to fully recover.

Meanwhile, the time in between droughts is getting shorter, an inverse correlation with potentially disastrous effects.

“If another drought arrives before trees and other plants have recovered from the last one, the ecosystem can reach a ‘tipping point’ where the plants’ ability to function normally is permanently affected,” Yuanyuan Fang, one of the study’s authors said in a release.

In light of this, it’s disturbing to read through the recently released Agricultural Institute of Canada report documenting serious gaps in Canada’s agricultural innovation system, arguably our best hope of preparing for an uncertain production climate.

The report highlights a steadily declining commitment to research by governments over the past three decades, despite the fact that for every dollar invested results in between $10 and $20 returned by way of productivity gains.

Private sector investment is waning as well, “due to low short-term returns on investment or insufficient incentives,” the report said.

Adoption of new technologies, such as precision agriculture, are hampered by the lack of a common analytics platform and poor rural broadband services. And there is a shortage of human capital, which is affecting research and extension capacity as well as onfarm production.

Governments must realize that soil and water will be key to the sector’s ability to adapt to a changing climate. Yet neither are likely to attract private investment.

Taxpayers are in it for the long haul and the sooner they step up the better it will be for all. laura@fbcpublishing.com

Appoint a farmer to the Senate On one hand it’s tempting to say, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” because the Senate Agriculture and Forestry Committee certainly isn’t broke. Reading transcripts of meetings of the House of Commons Agriculture and Agri-Food Committee can be a bit of a chore, as members often engage in partisan politics. That’s not only a distraction — it tends to put witnesses on their guard for fear of being drawn into them.

John Morriss In contrast, Senate committee meetFormer Editor ings are typically polite affairs with intelligent questions from senators and relaxed responses from witnesses. The result has been a series of non-partisan and well-reasoned reports which usually deserve more attention from the government and the agriculture community. Recent examples include reports on international market access, the bovine TB outbreak in Alberta and the importance of bee health to sustainable food production in Canada.

However, there are no Senate Agriculture and Forestry Committee members with any background in agriculture. That’s not all bad — it means they approach issues with no ideological baggage, and aren’t afraid to ask witnesses questions about points they don’t understand.

However, it does seem unusual to have a 16-member committee with no members with background in its subjects. In the past when senators were chosen partly because of political affiliation, that might have been just as well. Having one or two members with rigid positions on contentious issues might be a disruption. But now that there is a new process for appointing independent senators, that’s less of a concern.

The Senate currently has members representing a wide spectrum of Canadian society, but none with agricultural background.

Since there is currently one Senate vacancy in both Manitoba and Saskatchewan, there is now a good opportunity to remedy that.

Perhaps no farmers have applied, but there are no doubt several good candidates among farmers who have had experience in general farm or commodity organizations. The committee responsible for recommending Senate appointments should search them out.

Milking robots a precedent for modular farm automation acceptance

By John Greig Glacier FarmMedia

T

he DOT modular autonomous cropping system looks like it could bring to crop production similar advantages that the now-popular robotic milking systems have brought to dairy farms.

DOT, developed by a sister company of SeedMaster, the Saskatchewan seeder maker, is a machine without a category. You could call it an “implement power source,” or “interchangeable power unit.” I’m loath to call it what it replaces — a tractor — because it isn’t a tractor as we’ve come to think of it.

The system debuted recently at Ag In Motion, the big Western Canada outdoor farm show, with curious crowds watching as the machine pulled a seeder custom made for DOT down a field guided by GPS. It can also be moved by remote control.

There will be many questions, doubters and copycats. Developing technology at the ‘bleeding edge’ is tough. It often fails on execution, marketing or a critical technological hurdle. DOT may not be the autonomous machine that pulls our implements in the future, but I’m betting it will be similar and DOT will be the first.

I also really like the scale and size of the DOT power unit, and its adoption could look a lot like the arrival of robotic milking machines on dairy farms. More than half of all new dairy barns built in Canada now have robots. Twenty years ago, the first milking robots were curiosities, doubted and regularly vilified. The early milking robots had their issues, mostly with software. They have, however, found a strong niche with a certainsize farm, mostly smaller, single-family-operator farms, because they are modular and

OUR HISTORY:

create labour savings and flexibility. Most of the milking robots on the market milk 50-60 cows, so farmers using them milk 60 or 120 or 180 cows, usually replacing labour and making their farms more efficient.

Standardization of the process with a robot has been better for cows that like predictability and most farmers are getting more milk with robots.

Similarly, DOT is a mid-size 163-horsepower unit. I’m comfortable with that size.

It’s big enough to pull a decent-size planter or mid-size tillage unit. There’s no reason someone couldn’t start making lower-horsepower or higher-horsepower units — tractors come in many sizes — but that sizing, for row crops, has mostly had to do with maximizing operator efficiency. With something like a DOT unit, you might not get one that’s 300 hp, you’d just get two. That would mean more flexibility, and not likely a lot more (or less) cost than one 300-hp tractor. Hence, the modular scaling such as has been popular in milking robots.

Some companies have tried to build multiple boxes using one robot, but none of those systems have sold well.

There were online debates this week over whether the DOT-type unit would be adopted quicker by smaller or larger farmers. Some larger farmers will give it a try, but I could see the DOT-type unit having the lifestyle improvement intangible value to smaller- and mid-scale farmers, more than large farmers.

Farmers with off-farm jobs likely already have tractors that size. The next time they need to replace one, a system which allows them to be cultivating in a field in one tractor, with DOT seeding or planting by itself not far away makes a lot of sense.

August 1991

This is what a lineup at the elevator still looked like in 1991 — this shot in our August 8 issue was actually taken at Miami on July 31 but 1991 was one of several years in which that was the “longest day of the year.”

That referred to elevator managers dating cash tickets (sometimes with permission, sometimes not) to allow farmers to get wheat board quotas delivered before the end of the old crop year and before initial payments dropped in the new one.

Which they did in 1991, perhaps one of the glummest on record for grain farmers. The CWB initial payment for top-grade wheat had dropped 30 per cent to $95 per tonne before deductions. That was in response to the record-high stakes in the U.S.-EU grain subsidy war. The previous week the U.S. had set a new record Export Enhancement Program (EEP) subsidy averaging US$64.55 per tonne on 299,400 tonnes of wheat to Algeria.

Trade estimates put the net price after subsidy at about $65 per tonne, or $1.77 per bushel.

The good news was that it had been raining and the harvest looked at least average, with one

exception — lentils.

Because of high support levels under the Gross Revenue Insurance Program (GRIP), Manitoba farmers had doubled lentil plantings to 130,000 acres. A story that issue reported that the crop was taking a heavy beating from anthracnose. Acreage rose again to 165,000 in 1992 but declined afterward and Statistics Canada has not reported lentil acreage in Manitoba since 2004.

It may have been the first time readers read about it but not the last — our August 22 issue carried news of “alarming incidences” of a “harmful mould” called vomitoxin in Illinois, Minnesota and North Dakota wheat crops.

COMMENT/FEEDBACK

Two simple spray tips can make or break Canadian crops Before spraying your in-crop application, ‘keep it clean’ with these best practices

F

armers have a lot on their plates as they head into the spraying season.

The Canola Council of Canada, Cereals Canada and Pulse Canada are reminding growers of best practices that can have a major impact on marketing grain. Proper pesticide use is a critical factor in growing export-quality grain. As a world leader in producing high-quality exports to foreign markets, Canada’s ag industry relies on growers making informed choices in the coming months.

Here are two simple tips growers can follow for in-crop applications: Use pesticides that are registered for your crop and acceptable to both domestic and export customers. Make sure to only use pesticides that are reg-

istered in Canada for that crop. Keep in mind that registration of a pesticide doesn’t guarantee it’s acceptable to export customers. Registration can occur in Canada before there are maximum residue limits (MRLs) in major export markets and in some cases, this can create a market risk. Keep it Clean works to identify and manage these market risks so that growers can access crop protection products earlier and reduce marketing risks. Talk with your grain buyer before you spray to ensure the pesticides you’re using won’t limit your marketing options.

Us e p e s t i c i d e s c o r re c t l y. We’ve all been reminded to “Always follow label instructions,” because it’s some-

thing that must always be top of mind.

Applying the product without following label directions may result in higher-than-accepted residue levels in the seed. Proper timing is key. For example, cereal growers should not apply glyphosate when kernels are too green (30 per cent moisture or higher).

Follow the correct rates and timing listed on the label, and stick to the preharvest interval (PHI): the number of days that must pass between the last application of a pesticide and swathing or straight combining. See the provincial Guides to Crop Protection for more information. If you’re growing canola, visit spraytoswath.ca for tools to help you plan your spray.

In 2017, the Canola Council o f Ca n a d a , Ce re a l s Ca n a d a a n d Pulse Canada partnered together on the Keep it Clean initiative to inform Ca n a d i a n g r ow e r s o f b e s t p ra c t i c e s i n g r ow i n g e x p o r t - q u a l i t y grain. Because growers continue to follow the Keep it Clean steps, Canadian agriculture continues to keep the confidence of our export partners.

Visit keepingitclean.ca for information on producing export-quality canola, cereals and pulses.

U.S. livestock groups want more FMD readiness An August 7 editorial in Agweek, published in Grand Forks, North Dakota

W

hen many Americans h e a r “f o o t - a n d mouth disease,” they chuckle and think of people with the unfor tunate ten dency to say the wrong thing at the wrong time.

But the term is no laughing matter to the U.S. livestock industry. Ranchers, veterinarians and others in agriculture know that foot-and-mouth disease is serious and potentially could do huge damage to the ag economy — and the U.S. economy in general.

So we’re intrigued by the livestock industry’s proposal for $850 million in federal funding to protect against the disease. More than 100 industr y leaders and agricultural groups — including the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, National Pork Producers Council, the

A m e r i c a n S h e e p In d u s t r y Association and the National Milk Producers Federation — are asking Congress to include the following in the 2018 Farm Bill: • $750 million over five years for an enhanced Foot-andMouth Disease (FMD) Vaccine Bank.

• $30 million for the National Animal Health Laborator y Network.

• $70 million in grants for state animal health agencies to improve their ability to respond to a foreign animal disease breakout.

That’s a lot of money, to say the least.

But far more money could be lost if the disease breaks out in the U.S. Industr y officials estimate a $128-billion — yes, billion — economic hit on the beef and pork sectors if the disease flares up in the United States.

They also point to huge economic losses from FMD in

both the United Kingdom and South Korea.

A little background: FMD, a highly contagious viral disease, doesn’t affect people.

Nor is it considered a public health or food safety threat.

Bu t a n i m a l s w i t h d i v i d e d hoofs, including, cows, pigs and sheep, become sick from it, and infected animals usually must be killed.

It hasn’t been a problem in the United States; it’s been considered to be eradicated from the U.S. since 1929.

But it’s found elsewhere in the world, and the legitimate fear is that it could spread here.

If there were a large-scale outbreak in the United States, t h e e x i s t i n g F M D va c c i n e bank — managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s A n i m a l a n d P l a n t He a l t h Inspection Services at Plum Island, N.Y. — wouldn’t be big enough to cope, livestock industry officials say.

NAFTA a boon for U.S. cattlemen A July 26 press release by the U.S. National Cattlemen’s Beef Association

N

a t i o n a l C a t t l e m e n’s Beef Association (NCBA) CEO Kendal Fra z i e r t o d a y t e st i fi e d on Capitol Hill in support of the North American Free Trade A g r e e m e n t ( N A F TA ) a n d warned Congress against using the treaty’s renegotiation to resurrect failed policies like mandatory country-of-origin labelling (COOL).

“Quite frankly, it is difficult to improve upon duty-free, unlimited access to Canada and Mexico, and we are pleased to see the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative announce its support for continued reciprocal duty-free access,” Frazier

told members of the U.S. House Committee on Agriculture.

“Ev e n s t i l l , o u r m e s s a g e remains the same: please do no harm and do not jeopardize our access.”

Frazier pointed out that on average, Canada and Mexico have been two of America’s top five export markets for beef, with approximately $1 billion each in annual sales.

While spotlighting the benefits that NAFTA has delivered for cattle and beef producers, Frazier also discussed the ways in which mandatory countr y-of-origin labelling hurt producers when it was tried previously.

“COOL was U.S. law for over six years and failed to deliver on its promises to build consumer confidence

and add value for our producers,” Frazier pointed out.

“Instead, COOL resulted in a long battle in the World Trade Organization — with the United States facing the promise of more than $1 bill i o n i n re t a l i a t o r y t a r i f f s f r o m Me x i c o a n d Ca n a d a unless COOL was repealed.

C a n a d a a n d Me x i c o s t i l l have the authority to retaliate against the United States if COOL is brought back into effect — and rest assured they will retaliate against us if necessary.

“We must learn from the mistakes of the past and not repeat them,” Frazier concluded. “We encourage you to build on the success that current NAFTA provisions have given U.S. beef producers.”

So funding a bigger, better FMD vaccine bank would be a wise and prudent investment, they say.

We don’t know enough yet to say whether we support the livestock industry’s $850m i l l i o n r e q u e s t . Pe r h a p s a lesser amount, or spreadi n g t h e $ 8 5 0 m i l l i o n ove r

Connecting with the consumer Bringing people to the farm can help them understand agriculture better

BY PAUL BOOTSMA CFFO

T

he agriculture and food-processing industry has been working hard to connect with its customers. Most, if not all industries, have some kind of relationship with their customers. Often a co-operative, informed and somewhat personal relationship is what keeps the business relationship going.

Many of agriculture’s supporting organizations have been working diligently on growing and improving the relationship of farmers and their customers over the last number of years. Organizing events that bring food consumers to where their daily food is produced has been a popular and successful initiative in recent years.

Organizing these events takes a lot of work and consideration of many factors. The first thing that needs to be realized is that many people attending come with little or no knowledge of what happens on farms. The amount of technology and the size of buildings and equipment can often surprise them. And seeing farm animals up close is also new to many people.

The intent of these events is to increase and improve support for farmers and food production. Visitors come away well informed about how farmers care for their land and animals. Hopefully, they also get a glimpse into the amount of work and investment it takes to produce food.

Agriculture today involves a lot of technology and science. Events like these introduce consumers to modern food production, and it all begins on the farm. Inviting the consumer to the farm helps build that personal and informed relationship, which strengthens the connection between farmers and the consumer.

FROM PAGE ONE combination Continued from page 1

Farmers should avoid dropping the mix into their own rotations until the impacts of the combination are better known, he added.

In particular, WADO staff are concerned that soybeans will be shredded during harvest.

“The one thing that’s not working out is whether we can thresh soybeans and keep them relatively intact while threshing flax, which requires a much faster speed for the combine,” Chalmers said.

Hemp-legume intercropping is also on the field for the first time at WADO this year.

Hemp was planted either alongside or ahead of sweet clover, alfalfa, hairy vetch, red clover and field peas.

“This was more of a lastminute trial,” Chalmers said.

“One of our board members was concerned that their residue after hemp harvest is not breaking down fast enough and that it can be quite cumbersome to try and deal with that residue because hemp is so prolific. The idea with the legumes is to see if we can break down that residue from the hemp faster by having something covering the ground that’s more of a living material that’s producing more nitrogen.”

The mix may also mitigate wet springs through post-harvest green cover and legume regrowth in spring, much like the more common wheat-legume intercrop (also on trial at WADO this year), Chalmers said.

The added forage production is another perceived advantage.

WADO has shown interest in the agronomic impacts of a hemp-legume crop, including longer green cover, more pollinator habitat and nitrogen credits to the soil. A high-nitrogen crop, hemp removes about 200 kilograms of nitrogen per hectare, according to Manitoba Agriculture.

Hemp and peas have been less successful this year as the companion crop largely overtook the chosen, shorter, hemp variety, Chalmers told the crowd. Hemp is holding ground against other legumes, he said, although that may change as the male hemp plants die back, opening the door for underlying legumes to compete.

“The one thing that’s not working out is whether we can thresh soybeans and keep them relatively intact while threshing flax, which requires a much faster speed for the combine.”

Management practices A s we l l a s e x p l o r i n g n e w ‘breakout’ combinations, WADO is also diving a bit d e e p e r i n t o m o re p r ov e n mixes, such as examining the impact on soil nutrients from pea-canola intercropping.

“This has been a burning question for us,” Chalmers said. “We know we can overyield, but with that overyielding are we requiring more nutrients per acre such as phosphorus?”

Last year’s results showed phosphorus application resulted in higher yields, while nitrogen applications saw nodulation and overall pea performance decline. Canola, bolstered by additional nitrogen, quickly outcompeted peas.

Chalmers pointed to previous research, which has shown that nitrogen will inhibit pea nodulation.

“We just wanted to put it to the test here, and certainly that’s what we’re seeing, but we don’t know what the behaviour of the two crops together is on sharing that nitrogen,” he said.

It is unclear if additional nitrogen bolsters canola enough that it makes up for any loss in peas economically.

Pea-canola trials have shown an average 20 per cent gain over monoculture plots of both crops, Chalmers said, while the research farm also noted fewer aphids in the intercropped plot than in peas alone, although the reason for that change is not known.

In terms of herbicide, he noted, there are available herbicides which are compatible for both crops.

Farmers using the mix have complained that the pea-canola intercrop is difficult to harvest. Chalmers acknowledged the challenge and advised farmers to use a chemical desiccant and harvest the stand-

ing crop. The intercrop limits pod shatter risk in chemical desiccation, he said, as pea tendrils are tangled with canola, keeping the canola crop in place.

“The idea is that with the peas clinging onto the canola, the peas are actually off the ground and easier to harvest in a pea-canola situation than they would be in a monocrop situation where peas generally fall on the ground and you need special lifters to peel them off the dirt and get them into the combine,” he said.

WADO mixed an early-season canola with late-season peas to better match maturity.

Legumes and wheat Intercropping hard spring red wheat with legumes is not a new concept, but Chalmers hopes more data will draw a better line on management.

WADO’s ongoing wheatlegume trial tests different legumes (such as alfalfa and clover) broadcast at different times relative to wheat crop.

“We don’t have a good handle on how to establish those clovers or alfalfas underneath the wheat, whether we need to prebroadcast our seed and then seed into that or put it down with the wheat seed at the same time or to wait after, till we’ve seeded wheat when we have more black dirt and then broadcast into that,” Chalmers said.

The experiment, now in its second year, saw little difference in stand count between seeding systems last year.

The project measures early plant counts, yields and fall biomass. Chalmers said WADO could also measure the legume’s overwinter survival, but noted there might be logistical issues with accessing the field next spring. astockford@farmmedia.com

PEDv Continued from page 1

cials are still worried the virus could follow them to new barns.

“We’re still very early with that, so it’s hard to say whether any of these will become positive down the road,” Duizer said. “They, themselves, are undergoing ongoing monitoring after receiving the pigs and we will, as much as possible, keep surveillance in place to follow up on how those premises are doing.”

So far, the sector has limited animal movements to other infected facilities when possible. If pigs must be shipped to uninfected barns, there has been effort to stay within the five-kilometre high-risk buffers already set up around each confirmed PEDv case.

The chief veterinary office requires animals to go 35 days without clinical signs and have two back-to-back negative tests before allowing transport. The office also hopes to determine the baseline status of Manitoba’s farms to boost confidence that animal movements will not result in further infection.

Duizer stressed that a nonshedding status does not mean the barn is presumed negative for PEDv. Rather, it indicates that shipped animals are recovered or come from immune sows, the barn has an elimination strategy underway and internal biosecurity is isolating any sections of the barn where the virus may still be lurking.

“That is a transitional status that is meant to give us an idea of what risks we need to mitigate and address when we move those pigs,” Duizer said, adding that the system may be revisited in light of the most recent cases, confirmed in late July and early August.

The chief veterinary office estimates it may take between four and six months for a barn to be completely cleared of the virus.

Packing plants Over 30 pig shipments from PEDv-positive farms have arrived at two federal packing plants in Manitoba in the first two weeks of August, a practice previously avoided in fear of contaminating Manitoba facilities with the virus.

“Those shipments, again, as much as possible, we’re looking at having them reach a non-shedding status or, at minimum, having a negative test,” Duizer said. “They are still treated as if they are positive premises and we are making sure that we monitor the transports, the companies. The packing plants are ensuring that there’s biocontainment.”

Both plants have segregated those shipments from the rest of the processing chain.

Animals are queued for the end of the day or end of the week to minimize contamination risk. Transport and unloading space has been set aside for the shipments, and facilities are minimizing interaction between movements from PEDv-positive farms and those from elsewhere in the province.

“I think one of the things we want to reinforce on success is that when we’ve seen farms implement an aggressive outbreak-based biosecurity response, and I’m not saying that those need to be implemented 24-7 for the rest of the farm’s life or the rest of the premise’s life, but because there’s an outbreak in the area, their willingness to implement (those) kind of aggressive short-term biosecurity changes to protocols has appeared to be effective.”

Dr. Glen Duizer

The chief veterinary office is monitoring both plants.

Duizer said there was no evidence of contamination as the first week of shipments closed.

Animals were previously shipped to packing plants in the United States, where the virus is already common.

Two more cases Manitoba got a respite from the ongoing outbreak in mid-July when no new cases appeared July 15 to 26. The streak ended July 27, when a finisher operation in southeast Manitoba was added to the list of PEDv-positive premises, followed by another five days later. PEDv infections in Manitoba sat at 62 this year as of press time.

No new cases had been confirmed since Aug. 1.

But while the outbreak has seen its first case in August, Duizer says the most recent infections were due to purposeful animal movement and not breaches in biosecurity.

“I think one of the things we want to reinforce on success is that when we’ve seen farms implement an aggressive outbreak-based biosecurity response, and I’m not saying that those need to be implemented 24-7 for the rest of the farm’s life or the rest of the premise’s life, but because there’s an outbreak in the area, their willingness to implement (those) kind of aggressive short-term biosecurity changes to protocols has appeared to be effective,” he said.

The highly contagious PEDv causes dehydration and has been known to kill between 80 and 100 per cent of infected sucklings while older animals will often recover. astockford@farmmedia.com

Poultry boards not letting their guard down as NAFTA preparations begin The U.S. has a healthy trade surplus with Canada for eggs and poultry

By Alex Binkley Co-operator contributor

D

airy may be getting all the attention in the upcoming NAFTA negotiations, but the chicken, egg and turkey boards aren’t letting their guard down as talks are set to start in mid-August.

“The government has been clear in its support for supply management and we are confident it will continue to support and protect supply management during the negotiations while finding a way to work with the United States,” said Yves Ruel, manager of trade and policy for Chicken Farmers of Canada. “It has been done before successfully and we believe it will be done again.”

The Canadian chicken sector believes the reason it’s not in the spotlight is that the existing NAFTA arrangement has provided stability and predictability to chicken producers on both sides of the border.

“In terms of the U.S.’s No. 1 renegotiation priority — improving the U.S. trade balance and reducing the trade deficit — it is important to note that the U.S. has consistently enjoyed a positive balance in its chicken trade with Canada,” he said. “Between 2012 and 2016, the American chicken trade surplus with Canada averaged around $200 million per year.”

Rowan Weerdenburg, communications officer for Egg Farmers of Canada, said his organization is following the negotiations closely but doesn’t anticipate being on the agenda.

“The current access provided to the U.S. for eggs through NAFTA is not a fixed amount; it’s based on a percentage of the previous year’s domestic production,” he said. “In fact, access provided to the U.S. for eggs under NAFTA has grown year over year alongside domestic demand. This has delivered both a growing and predictable market for U.S. egg exports.”

He noted that the U.S. has consistently enjoyed a positive balance in the trade of eggs with Canada. In just 2016, the U.S. maintained a net trade surplus of close to $40 million.

Phil Boyd, executive director of Turkey Farmers of Canada, said, his group is also closely involved with the Canadian trade negotiators. “We want to make sure no harm is done.”

In addition to NAFTA, the poultr y groups have been closely tracking the TPP and Europe free trade talks. U.S. poultry groups have made calls for increased access to Canada and echoed complaints made by the Trump administration about the restrictions created by the Canadian supply management system.

Ruel noted that since 2012, Canada has been the secondlargest destination for U.S. broiler meat after Mexico in terms of both volume and value.

When considered on a per capita basis, the value of Canadian imports of U.S. chicken are three times greater than the value of Mexico’s imports of U.S. chicken, he said.

Our tariff-rate quota pro-

vides real market access to our American counterparts, and removes the risk of the erection of non-tariff barriers, as is a current practice in many other countries,” he said. “For instance, unlike many other U.S. trade partners, Canada did not take advantage of the extensive 2015 avian influenza outbreak there to block exports. Such certainty has enabled the U.S. chicken sector to invest in significantly increasing its exports.”

The import predictability provided by the NAFTA regime has allowed Canada’s unique supply management system to thrive next door to the largest chicken producer in the world, he said.

“By matching production levels to domestic requirements, we do not generate surpluses that would then in turn be exported, potentially displacing U.S. production and creating

“We want to make sure no harm is done.”

Phil Boyd executive director of Turkey Farmers of Canada

disruption on the U.S. market.

Instead, Canadian chicken farmers can remain focused on satisfying our domestic market, most notably through the implementation of the rigorous production and animal care practices that Canadian consumers want.”

The position taken by the Canadian chicken sector is that the renegotiation of NAFTA must do no harm to the existing balanced and mutually beneficial trade relationship with the United States, he said.

Strong loonie not major threat: FCC economist Canada still competitive with an 80-cent dollar

T

he Canadian dollar’s flirtations with the 80 U.S. cent mark is not likely to undermine agriculture’s potential for the rest of the year, said the principal agricultural economist at Farm Credit Canada.

When FCC issued economic outlooks for agriculture back in January, it said the low dollar relative to the U.S. currency had been a major reason for Canadian ag sector profitability for the past couple of years.

The report predicted the dollar would stay near 75 U.S. cents.

But it’s now reached that and beyond.

Ye t t h o s e re c e n t g a i n s shouldn’t cut too deep, said Craig Klemmer at FCC. While it will likely cause some softening of demand, the overall outlook remains positive.

“So when we think about our crop receipts, for example, the U.S. is going to be slightly more competitive than it was before, but in international markets, the Canadian dollar is still quite favourable,” he said.

“I think it still looks like a very successful year for Canadian agriculture.”

Craig Klemmer FCC

“In terms of that, it will continue to support relatively strong cash receipts.”

Klemmer pointed out that most Canadian dollar gains are due more to U.S. weaknesses, rather than a stronger loonie.

He said a stronger Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. will make Canadian goods less competitive in the U.S. market and in international markets where the U.S. and Canada compete head to head. Demand from those markets could soften, he said.

“But that being said, we’re still an 80-cent dollar. We’re still very, very competitive.”

He s a i d s u p p l y- d e m a n d fundamentals remain intact with the Canadian and global economies both performing well, which should mean steady demand internationally and at home. And while there are some weather challenges and regional issues to overcome, he said the overall picture remains positive.

Another key factor will be whether the Bank of Canada or the U.S. Federal Reserve increase key lending rates.

Klemmer expects both institutions will hold off on hikes, at least for the time being. The Bank of Canada’s key lending rate is at 0.75 per cent.

There’s also a bit of good news for farmers in that input pr ices, most of which are priced in U.S. dollars, should become less expensive for Canadian farmers as the dollar strengthens.

“I think it still looks like a ver y successful year for Ca n a d i a n a g r i c u l t u re,” h e said.

Hydro awarded 3.36 per cent rate increase by PUB Alternatives to rising cost of electricity need serious thought, says RM official

BY LORRAINE STEVENSON Co-operator staff

M

unicipal leaders say the 3.36 per cent interim rate increase granted Manitoba Hydro this month offers only temporary relief from higher energy costs and longer-term solutions are needed.

“It’s certainly better than 7.9 per cent but it’s still an increase everyone is going to have to deal with,” said Randy Henuset, deputy reeve of the RM of Pipestone.

The Public Utilities Board (PUB) announced July 31 that Manitoba Hydro would get the more modest interim rate rather than the 7.9 per cent it was initially asking for.

Hearings for a full general rate application begin later this year in December.

Pipestone made its opposition to the higher rate

known during June district meetings of the Association of Manitoba Municipalities saying 7.9 per cent — plus another 7.9 proposed for next April — would have been more than cash-strapped communities could take.

They can live with a 3.36 per cent interim rate, but with costs for hydro inevitably rising, something will have to give, Henuset said.

The solution is to get serious about switching to solar power and other alternative energy sources, he said.

“We’re going to have to start looking at alternative sources because we can’t keep paying these prices,” he said. “Our big power uses are places like our recreation complex. I know (alternative energy) can initially have startup costs but it can probably be recouped.”

Pipestone reeve, Archie McPherson said the 3.36 per cent rate increase is “some-

“We’re going to have to start looking at alternative sources because we can’t keep paying these prices.”

Randy Henuset municipal leader

what of a relief ” but will still mean additional energy costs of $5,000 for their RM. Bringing in natural gas from neighbouring municipalities may be another way to reduce their reliance on electricity, he said.

In its ruling released July 31 the PUB said all members of the board concluded Manitoba Hydro’s financial situation for the current and next fiscal year had improved from what it forecast in May

and that the 3.36 per cent inter im rate increase “is consistent with the considerations of rate stability and predictability.”

The PUB awarded the lesser rate increase, stipulating all additional revenues from it flow into the utility’s Bipole III deferral account in anticipation of costs related to it going into service July 2018.

Hydro’s debt has increased to $16 billion and is expected to climb another $8 billion over the next five years largely due to costs related to rising budgets for its megaproject Bipole III transmission line, now pegged at $5 billion.

In a statement last week Kelvin Shepherd, president and CEO of Manitoba Hydro said they are pleased the PUB saw need for the interim increase, but remains concerned that the PUB “has not taken quicker action to begin

to address the serious financial challenges and risks facing Manitoba Hydro.”

Ma n i t o b a Hyd ro n e e d s the extra revenue to fully fund operations, invest in upgrades to aging infrastructure and withstand risks associated with rising interest rates and drought, his statement said.

“Our business is subject to a great deal of volatility in terms of water flows, which are extremely hard to predict and can have a very major and rapid impact on our revenues,” he said.

Shepherd said Manitoba Hydro looks forward to the comprehensive PUB review of Manitoba Hydro’s full General Rate Application and expects that detailed process will ultimately confirm the need for the level of rate increases that were requested. lorraine@fbcpublishing.com

attle markets are going through seasonal doldrums as large numbers of fed cattle are weighing down prices.

Brian Perillat, a senior analyst at Canfax, the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association’s market information firm, said fed cattle have been under pressure since the price fall-off this spring.

“The U.S. and Canada, we’re killing as many cattle as we have for several years and keeping kind of a lid on prices. We’re actually pushing into some of the lowest prices of the year right now.”

Current prices for fed cattle are about $1.40 per pound, he said.

Cull cows are also under pressure, selling for less than $1, down 12 to 13 cents from their highs this spring.

In Brandon, Keith Cleaver of Heartland Livestock Services said the facility’s Aug. 8 sale saw steady prices with good interest.

On the slaughter side, he said, cow prices were fully steady to slightly higher and feeders were also steady to “a titch” higher than a few weeks ago.

“The cows were in the 90 (cents) to $1 range.

The higher-yielding cows were very close to a dollar,” he said.

Yearling steers (700-750 lbs.) were attracting bids of up to $2.09/lb. “That’s livable.”

Those prices may not seem overly high compared to prices producers were seeing at the peak of the rally this spring, or compared to the strong market of a couple of years ago, but Perillat agreed it’s not bad historically.

“But any time you’re over two bucks, it’s

“… any time you’re over two bucks, it’s still a pretty good price for steers and calves.” brian perillat Canfax

still a pretty good price for steers and calves,” he said.

Perillat added he expected that younger calves would be hitting markets early because dry conditions in southern areas of Saskatchewan and Alberta would force producers to thin their herds, but so far that hasn’t happened.

“There’s a few more — a few yearlings moving in, but not much. Those numbers are pretty limited, actually surprising given how big an area that is quite dry,” he said.

Markets may start seeing more calves in September as grass dries up, he added.

“We expect a bit of an earlier fall run.”

Manitoba producers appear to have escaped the worst conditions faced by producers in Alberta and Saskatchewan, Cleaver said, although some areas could use more moisture.

“Pastures were a concern for some, but we got some rain last week and more today (Aug. 9). Hopefully, that will keep the grass growing,” he said.

He said he expected more feeder cattle to start moving soon and activity to pick up generally in the next few weeks.

Bearish USDA report drags on U.S. commodity futures A sinking loonie worked in canola futures’ favour DAVE SIMS CNSC

T

he canola market continues to be locked in sideways trade, even as a bearish U.S. Department of Agriculture report temporarily rocked the oilseed world.

USDA on Aug. 10 released its monthly supplyand-demand report, in which it raised its estimate for this year’s U.S. soybean harvest to 4.4 billion bushels, a figure nearly on par with last year’s record crop. The prediction was significantly above what most analysts had predicted heading into the report and traders were soon selling en masse.

Ideas took hold that heat stress to this year’s crop might not be as bad as initially feared.

Another factor that unnerved the market was how this year’s weather in the U.S. Plains could impact the harvest. Growers in the eastern portion of the Plains were dealing with excess amounts of water, while many growers in the western part are battling drought-like conditions. It all makes for a potent mix of unpredictability moving forward.

The report’s release briefly drew in large funds, which had been sitting idle in the canola market for much of August. The front-month November contract managed to temporarily smash through resistance at $513 per tonne.

However, the buying cooled off before it could hit $520 and things calmed down on Friday in light trade.

Attention will likely shift back to weather and soy as the next major report, this time from Statistics Canada, isn’t due until the end of the month.

One factor working in canola’s favour is the Canadian dollar, which had sunk below the

psychologically important 80 U.S. cents mark.

That has helped make the commodity more attractive on the international market.

Out on the Prairies, growers also continue to bring in product from last year. It comes as the trade faces tough questions over how much rationing will need to happen in the coming months to ensure the country doesn’t run out of product.

The bearish USDA report also led to a tumultuous time for the soybean market. The dominant November contract sank to the US$9.40 mark on Aug. 10. Some analysts threw cold water on the report, saying they thought the projection was too high given the scorching weather the crop saw this summer. The damage could have been worse but demand for U.S. soybeans is high, with big orders from Mexico coming in and solid interest from China. Weather conditions are also still too dry in much of the U.S. Corn Belt.

The corn market also fell after USDA projected U.S. yields at 165.9 bushels an acre, along with higher U.S. stockpiles than expected. The frontmonth December contract moved from a high last week of US$3.87 a bushel to under US$3.75.

An outbreak of bird flu in the Philippines was also bearish as it forced a cull of 200,000 head of poultry, which weighed on livestock feed.

Wheat futures were also dragged down by the report, which pegged spring wheat in 2017-18 at a higher-than-expected 402 million bushels.

Some farmers in the western portion of the U.S. Midwest have begun to bale their wheat for hay.

There are also expectations consumer baking costs could rise due to the shortage of highprotein wheat.

Prairie wheat bids continue descent Cash wheat values follow U.S. wheat futures’ loss of altitude

BY DAVE SIMS CNS Canada

Average (CWRS) prices ranged from about $254 per tonne in western Manitoba to as high as $268 in eastern Manitoba.

W

heat bids in Western Canada continued to soften during the week ended Aug. 11, feeling the pull of downward action in U.S. futures.

Depending on the location, average Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat prices were down by $14-$16 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 $254 per tonne in western Manitoba to as high as $268 in eastern Manitoba.

Quoted basis levels varied from

location to location, but generally improved by a couple of dollars to range from about $7-$20 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$200 to US$211 per tonne. That would put the currency-

adjusted basis levels at about US$37$48 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 $47 to $61 below the futures. Canada Prairie Spring Red (CPSR) wheat bids were mostly down by $2-$5 per tonne, with prices ranging from $165 to $173 per tonne.

Average durum prices were up by $11-$25 per tonne, with bids in

Saskatchewan coming in at about $310-$330 per tonne.

The September spring wheat contract in Minneapolis, off of which most CWRS contracts Canada are based, was quoted Aug. 11 at US$6.74 per bushel, down by 42.25 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 Aug. 11 at US$4.4125 per bushel, down by 18.25 U.S. cents compared to the previous week.

The September Chicago Board of Trade soft wheat contract settled at US$4.3925 on Aug. 11, down 15.5 U.S. cents on the week.

The Canadian dollar settled Aug. 11 at 78.83 U.S. cents, down roughly a third of a cent on the week.

Manitoba counts the cost of dry conditions on hay harvest Hayfields and pastures have welcomed early-August rains, but some regions are still in need of moisture, including central Manitoba

By Alexis Stockford Co-operator staff

T

his year’s hay harvest won’t match last year’s bumper crop, but there should still be enough to go around, an official with the Manitoba Forage and Grassland Association says.

“Last year, the hay yields were phenomenal. Every field did well,” chair Dave Koslowsky said.

“This year, it’s a little bit more hit and miss but, for the most part, there’s still lots of hay.”

Below-average precipitation has become the norm for most of agricultural Manitoba this year, with only a ribbon of land to the north and some southern patches approaching growing season averages, according to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada.

The dry conditions shrivelled some first-cut yields and regrowth has been slow.

But concern was allayed somewhat after the province’s dry spell broke in some regions early this month.

Southwest Manitoba saw between 15 and 40 millimetres of rain in the first week of August, although Manitoba Agriculture warned that the second hay cut may be limited if more moisture does not fall.

“In our area, I know we’ve had about three inches now in the last three weeks, basically,” Koslowsky, who farms near Killarney, said. “Pasture has definitely improved.”

Producers with fewer cows per pasture have reported good conditions, he said, although farmers who already risked overgrazing are “going to be feeding in the very near future.”

“The cows are eating the good grass,” he said. “Some of the tougher grasses that they don’t like to eat, they’re not even touching them yet.”

Still dry in central Manitoba Central Manitoba has been among the driest regions this year, with areas along the U.S.-Canada border south of Winnipeg ranging from 100 to 150 millimetres less rain than normal, according to weather data from Agriculture and AgriFood Canada.

Second cut in the west and southwest areas was described as “non-existent due to limited rainfall and poor regrowth,” in the Aug. 8 crop report, although the same report noted there was excellent regrowth in areas with adequate moisture.

“So far, the weather this year has been a lot more co-operative,” Mark Georges, who farms in the Miami area, said. “Quality has been good.”

Pastures are beginning to

show the strain in some areas, the province also warned.

“Pastures are dry and turning brown,” the Aug. 8 report read.

“Rain (is) needed to sustain pastures and livestock into the fall; supplemental feeding may be required earlier this year.”

Looking east In eastern Manitoba, which reported most of the province’s forage winterkill concerns this spring, 80 per cent of fields and 60 per cent of pastures were in reportedly good condition, although 20 per cent of pastures were rated poor. Rainfall ranged from two to 40 millimetres in the first week of August.

First-cut yields averaged 1.5 tonnes per acres, with wild hay yielding one tonne per acre, tame hay reaching 1.75 tonnes per acre and two-tonne-peracre yields observed in grass/ a l f a l f a m i x , a c c o rd i n g t o Manitoba Agriculture.

Second cut is expected to also reach 1.5 tonnes per acre with 1.25-tonne-per-acre yields in grass/alfalfa.

More moisture to the north Northwest Manitoba bucked the trend seen in most of the province, with above-average yields reported in the first cut

“Last year, the hay yields were phenomenal. Every field did well. This year it’s a little bit more hit and miss but, for the most part, there’s still lots of hay.”

of native hay and some farms re p o r t i n g c h a l l e n g e s w i t h excess moisture.

The regions west of Lake Manitoba and into the Interlake are some of the few to rate between 85 to 115 per cent of average precipitation since April 1, according to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada.

Alfalfa regrowth has been likewise promising in the Interlake with pastures in good to fair condition.

Thirsty patches have still been noted near Roblin and parts of Dauphin and the province warns that second-cut

yield may fall below average in those drier areas. “ T h i n g s a re s h a p i n g u p so far, for the most part,” Ko s l ow s k y s a i d . “ T h e r e’s always exceptions. There’s dry pockets in the province in some areas. I know there’s an area along the border south of Winkler there that’s very dry. They’ve been missing the rains. There’s a pocket here west of us that is quite dry as well. Farther west, you get into the Melita area. They’ve had some rains now, but they’re very dry. There’s other pockets that are quite wet. In the Interlake, I talked to a producer over there the other day and they’re very wet. They don’t want to see another rain.”

Dry weather a boost to hay market?

The unusually dry year may come with a silver lining in the markets, Koslowsky added.

“For the guys who sell hay, their price has gone up and the quality has been fantastic,” Koslowsky said. “We’ve had some very decent haying weather this year.”

While pockets of Manitoba are in moderate drought, the province has yet to see the widespread drought condi-

tions noted in Saskatchewan and parts of the United States this year. Much of southern Saskatchewan is in severe or e x t re m e d ro u g h t , a c c o rd ing to the Canadian Drought Monitor.

In the United States, the U.S. Drought Monitor reports persisting drought conditions in North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Iowa and parts of Mi n n e s o t a a n d Wy o m i n g , among others.

Hay price has jumped significantly in the drought-stricken northern states, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s July prices report.

In North Dakota, “all hay” price jumped from $79 per ton in May 2017 to $123 per ton in June, both up from the $73 per ton paid in June of last year. Minnesota, Montana and South Dakota prices also jumped, rising from $75 to $85 per ton, $128 to $135 per ton and $89 to $116 per ton respectively between June 2016 and June 2017.

Nationally, the average allhay price this June was higher than the previous year, but had slipped $3 per ton from May 2017. astockford@farmmedia.com

Heat stress and horses

Emergency interventions may be necessary to save overheated animals

Don’t worry about NAFTA talks, dairy farmers told The free trade deal is being renegotiated but Ottawa is vowing to resist any move to undercut supply management

BY ALEXIS KIENLEN

Horse Health

H

ot weather poses a unique set of challenges to the physiology of horses that are better equipped to deal with cold weather.

Horses naturally benefit from the heat produced as a byproduct of their own digestive processes and muscular activity. However, as temperatures rise beyond approximately 24 C and humidity increases, horses struggle to effectively cool themselves and are at a risk for heat stress. The exercising horse relies on the evaporative losses or sweating to cool itself and dissipate heat generated through sustained and strenuous muscular activity.

The sweating horse loses both water and electrolytes which can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, further compounding the ill effects of the heat stress.

Both exercising and nonexercising horses exhibit heat stress and symptoms range from mental dullness and poor performance to potentially fatal heatstroke. Heat builds up just as easily in the nonexercising horse as the exercising horse, particularly those confined to enclosed trailers, small drylots with no shade, and closed or poorly ventilated stables.

Fa c t o r s o t h e r t h a n h o t weather that contribute to heat stress in horses are obesity, metabolic conditions, long hair coats, lack of conditioning, poor acclimatization, excessive and strenuous work, transportation, inability to sweat (anhidrosis), and heavy muscling. Foals are particularly sensitive to hyperthermia with their naive thermoregulatory abilities and can overheat simply from being in the hot sun.

Horses that are overweight and not used to regular hard physical activity are at the greatest risk. Additionally any horse that does not have access to salt and minerals will struggle with heat to a greater degree.

Common terms for describing the “overheated” horse include hyperthermia, heat e x h a u s t i o n , h e a t c ra m p s, heatstroke or sunstroke and represent severity along a continuum. “Over heating” or hyperthermia occurs when the horse’s temperature rises beyond 41 C (106 F). This is often coupled with dehydration and electrolyte disturbances.

Physiology changes As heat stress becomes heat exhaustion, the physiology of the horse becomes distressed and begins to change.

Ironically horses that develop anhidrosis even cease to sweat as heat exhaustion progresses.

Heat exhaustion can advance to heatstroke quickly. If a horse’s body temperature rises to 41 C (106 F) and beyond for prolonged periods the consequences to health can be serious.

Hosing down an overheated horse with cold water will quickly cool the animal.

The “overheated” horse typically begins to lack focus and/ or state of presence, becoming dull and inattentive. The exercising horse will be profusely sweating, becoming dehydrated and fatigued. As the horse becomes more distressed and exhausted by the heat its heart will climb to over 60 beats per minute and remain elevated while its breathing becomes rapid and shallow. Some horses may begin to pant. Exercising horses refuse to work, drip sweat, and some horses exhibit “thumping” — a spasmodic jerking of the diaphragm or flanks in response to the electrolyte disturbances.

Heat cramps may occur as a result of electrolyte loss and disturbances. Signs of heat cramps include spasms and twitching of the abdominal and/or large leg muscles. The horse may move very stiffly and abnormally, similar to a horse that is tying up. Other horses appear to have colic.

Left untreated, heat exhaustion can rapidly turn into heatstroke with horses developing evidence of central nervous system dysfunction: inco-ordination, weaving, stumbling, staggering, and falling. A coma and death may follow if the horse is not treated immediately. Complications from the heatstroke include colic, laminitis, liver and kidney failure, respiratory complications, and “tying up.”

If hyperthermia is suspected, taking the horse’s rectal temperature provides a valuable parameter to monitor its wellbeing. Horses have a regulated internal set point within a very narrow range and a rectal temperature exceeding 40.5 C (105 F) is abnormal in any horse and poses a dangerous situation.

The “overheated” horse often requires active intervention from the moment it is recognized to be a problem to avoid a downward spiral of heat exhaustion and heatstroke. The extent of the measures taken depends greatly upon the factors that have led to the heat stress. If the horse is still alert, still sweating normally, and its rectal temperature reads 40 C (104 F) it is “overheated” but not necessarily in danger.

Care would involve environmental correction as much as possible, cessation of exercise, and cooling out the horse by

walking as well as offering the horse plenty of opportunity to drink. As the horse starts to edge towards heat exhaustion aggressive cooling measure will become necessary.

Cool to cold water hosing of the large hindquarter muscles and large blood vessels that travel along the inside of the horse’s hind limb and under the neck will act to quickly dissipate and carry excess heat away from the body. Gentle walking will encourage circulation to bring more heated blood to the surface of the skin for cooling.

Standing the horse up in a breeze whether natural or created by fans will increase evaporative losses. If the horse’s b o d y t e m p e r a t u re c l i m b s upward into the danger zone of 41 C (106 F) and higher, douse as much of his body as possible with the coldest water available. Sponge the horse with cold water and apply ice packs to the large vessels along the insides of the hind legs. If his temperature does not come back into the normal range of 38.5 C (102 F) and the horse is not back to normal eating and drinking readily within an hour, then summon veterinary assistance. It may need intravenous hydration and further measures to support its recovery.

Heat stress and its various forms of distress can be prevented with proper management and conditioning. The most important single factor in preventing heat stress is providing plenty of clean, fresh water and trace mineralized salt to all horses. Sensibility when asking the horse to perform during the heat and a watchful eye for early signs of distress are equally important.

on’t worry, we have your back.

That was the message delivered behind closed doors to the nation’s dairy leaders at the recent annual general meeting of the Dairy Farmers of Canada.

The AGM was held just as Washington was releasing its negotiating objectives on talks to revise the North American Free Trade Agreement, which will begin in mid-August.

One of the U.S. objectives targets supply management, seeking to end “restrictive administration of tariff-rate quotas, other unjustified measures that unfairly limit access to markets to U.S. goods.”

But Ottawa’s support for supply management is unwavering, the dairy farmers were told by Jean-Claude Poissant, parliamentary secretary to Agriculture Minister Lawrence MacAulay.

The reassurance, delivered in a session closed to the press, was emphatic, said Alberta Milk’s general manager.

“He was very clear about the support from the Liberal government for our industry through supply management,” said Mike Southwood.

And Canada has a strong case to make in the talks aimed at revamping the free trade deal, he said.

“A lot of it is just looking at the facts and making sure those are presented,” said Southwood.

“There’s already a huge trade imbalance of dairy products coming into Canada from the United States. That gets lost in terms of what people perceive as opportunity.”

American exports of dairy ingredients to Canada exceed more than $550 million annually, and Canada only exports one-fifth of that amount to the U.S., he said.

Still, facts aren’t always foremost when it comes to the

Mike Southwood

administration of President Donald Trump, who earlier this year called supply management “a disgrace.”

“That creates some anxiety for sure,” said Southwood.

“Although we have strong support from our federal government on the position we have.”

Negotiations are set to begin on Aug. 16.

“We would like to keep it as it is,” said Southwood. “And we’re hoping that with modernization, the federal government makes that clear. They’re hoping for a win-win-win. This isn’t just a debate between Canada and the U.S. — we have a significant partner in Mexico as well.”

Canada is the lone nation to have a supply-managed system, but “it works for Canadians,” he said.

“We produce a high-quality product for Canadians, we provide to the domestic market and we have clear evidence that Canadians support domestic supply of dairy products,” said Southwood.

And unlike other countries, including the U.S., Canada doesn’t have to subsidize its dairy industry, he said.

“Even Australia, which is supposedly one of the poster boys of dismantling supply management, has had to inject millions of dollars into its dairy industry to support it,” he said. “The argument that it costs consumers money is not supported either. We just get a fair return of the dollar that the consumer pays, right through the entire system. We don’t rely on any subsidies at all.” akienlen@fbcpublishing.com

SHEEP & GOAT COLUMN

Goat numbers surge at Aug. 2 auction There was good interest for animals ahead of an Islamic holiday GOAT DOES

BY MARK ELLIOT Co-operator contributor

Ewes

T

he supply of about 500 sheep and goats for the Aug. 2, 2017 sale at Winnipeg Livestock Auction was an excellent presentation of the possible animals available for those preparing for the Islamic celebration.

There was a variety of the various animal weights available so buyers could purchase for the wide range required.

There was a good selection of the wool ewes which dominated this sale. Only two Katahdin (hair) ewes were delivered. The average price ranged from $0.82 to $1.01 per pound. However, the sheared ewes clearly showed their frame, allowing the buyers to make stronger bids. These ewes brought a price range from $1.14 to $1.16 per pound. The extreme woolly ewes brought $0.83 per pound.

The 190-pound Suffolk-cross ram brought $1.02 per pound.

The 160-pound Dorper-cross ram brought $0.82 per pound. This situation indicates that the buyers showed preference and not on the condition of the rams. Both rams had standard appearances for this sale.

The heavyweight classification of lambs was represented by eight 114-pound Suffolk-cross lambs.

The lambs brought $1.88 per pound.

The market lambs had similar bidding to past sales. The average price ranged from $1.97 to $2 per pound, for average lamb weight of 85 to 102 pounds. An exception was a 90-pound Rideau-cross lamb which brought $1.10 per pound.

The feeder lambs had a price range from $1.92 to $2.01 per pound.

The demand remained as strong for the lightweight lambs as for the feeder lambs. The buyers were purchasing for the celebration. The wool lambs dominated this classification. The 70-pound lambs brought $1.91 per pound.

The 63-pound lambs brought $2.11 per pound and the 88-pound lambs brought $1.95 per pound.

The 50-plus-pound lambs brought a price range from $1.85 to $2 per pound.

The 24 45-pound Dorper-cross lambs brought $1.96 per pound.

The three 46-pound Dorper-cross lambs brought $2.01 per pound.

Seven 32-pound Dorper-cross lambs brought $1.97 per pound.

A 25-pound Dorper-cross lamb brought $1.35 per pound. This lightweight lamb would require a lot of attention and proper care.

Goats Buyers may have felt overwhelmed by the number and variety of goats at this sale. It was impressive to see the muchrequired assortment. This allowed the various buyers to do a true selection for their demand. It was also possible to purchase for increasing or improving a herd.

The extremely small goats were not viewed as a requirement, but requiring more attention and care â&#x20AC;&#x201D; possibly even bottle feeding for some weeks or months.

The dairy classification of the goat does was represented mainly by the Alpine-cross breed.

However, there were a few La

Mancha-cross goat does in this sale. The buyers showed interest in the various dairy goat does for future purposes.

The dairy goat bucks carried the interest of the buyers. However, all goat bucks were in demand.

Quality was shown in most groups of goats. There was a Nubiancross goat buck that showed some behaviour problems with a slight difference of opinion between this buck and the ringmaster. Some quick bidding and the solution was solved.

Goat kids have always been at very high demand for all sales.

This sale was well supplied and the buyers had the opportunity to reach their requirements. The very lightweight goat kids were not of high interest at this sale.

The dairy goat kids were in most cases, well developed and equally comparable to the meat goat kids.

Choice was available from the producers who delivered.

The Ontario Livestock Report had the goats being sold just at a regular pace. All sheep and lambs reached a constant price, with some slightly higher. There did not seem to be any major surprises or excitement.

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

Warm weather to build back in Issued: Monday, August 14, 2017 · Covering: August 16 - 23, 2017 Daniel Bezte Weather Vane

E

ven though I had to create the forecast early last week I was still able to pull off a reasonably accurate one. I would love to take full credit for that, but sometimes you just get lucky. After all, I am just reading weather models and trying to pick which models are doing the best job. It also doesn’t hurt that we’ve been in a blocking pattern, which basically keeps us stable.

For this forecast period it looks like the blocking pattern is going to break down, at least for a few days. The low-pressure system off the West Coast that has been the western anchor to the blocking pattern is forecast to track slowly eastward across Northern Canada, flattening out the ridge of high pressure in the process. This low will drag a trough of low pressure across our region on Wednesday or Thursday, bringing with it clouds and a few showers and thundershowers. The best chances of rain with this trough look to be across the southern portion

of the province. Temperatures under the clouds will cool down, with highs expected to be in the low 20s.

By Friday we’ll see high pressure begin to build back into our region as the upper ridge tries to rebuild itself. We should see sunny skies all weekend long, with high temperatures expected to be in the mid- to upper 20s along with fairly light winds.

Confidence in the forecast drops for the first half of next week. The weather models show a slow-moving area of low pressure crossing the northern Prairies. This low should help to pull up some very warm and humid air across southern and central Manitoba from Monday to Wednesday. Some of the weather models show high temperatures in the low 30s along with dew points in the low 20s.

With all of that heat and humidity also come the chances for some stronger thunderstorms.

Usual temperature range for this period: Highs, 20 to 28 C; lows, 8 to 14 C. Daniel Bezte is a teacher by profession with a BA (Hon.) in geography, specializing in climatology, from the U of W.

WEATHER MAP - WESTERN CANADA

This issue’s map shows the number of days that locations on the Prairies have received less than 0.5 mm of precipitation so far this growing season (up to Aug. 7). A fairly large portion of the southern and central Prairies has seen 80 to over 100 days with no real precipitation.

Heat, ice and the solar eclipse

We’re parked in a high-pressure ridge between West Coast and Hudson Strait lows

BY DANIEL BEZTE Co-operator contributor

I

n the last issue we looked at just how hot and dry this summer has been across the Prairies. A week and a half later and we are continuing to see warm to hot temperatures across the Prairies, with only scattered rain events. One question asked of me lately is why are some areas of the Prairies seeing heat warnings, when they are not as hot as we’ve been in southern and central Manitoba? The simple answer is that slightly different criteria are used for different areas of the Prairies. These criteria consider the average or usual expected temperatures for a region, so re g i o n s s u c h a s n o r t h e r n Manitoba have slightly lower temperature thresholds for heat warnings than the southern parts of the province.

I don’t have a single topic to discuss this week, so this article will be a bit of a mashup.

As many of you know, or have figured out by reading my articles over the years, I spend a fair bit of my summer travelling around and camping. What you may not know about me is that I began doing triathlons five or six years ago, as a way of forcing myself to get back into shape. Summer is triath-

“Regions such as northern Manitoba have slightly lower temperature thresholds for heat warnings than the southern parts of the province.”

lon season and I now combine my camping with different triathlon races. For this article, I am sitting at Hecla Island after just completing my first Half Ironman triathlon. For those of you who have no idea what that is, it’s a 1.9-km swim and 90-km bike, followed by a 21 km run.

Let’s just say it was the toughest physical thing I have ever done. If you find me rambling or not making sense in this article, now you’ll know why.

Clear in the shade I know this next topic really isn’t weather related, but whether you’ll be able to experience it is. I’m talking about the upcoming solar eclipse.

This eclipse will take place Monday, Aug. 21, and depending on exactly where you are, it will begin at approximately 11:40 a.m., reach the maximum coverage of about 70 per cent around 12:55 p.m., and finish up around 2:15 p.m.

Unfortunately, for us here in Manitoba it will only be a par-

tial eclipse, with the area of totality occurring in a narrow southeast band across the U.S. Looking at the latest mediumrange forecasts, we should have a good chance of favourable sky conditions to view this event here in Manitoba, so be sure to get yourself a pair of proper solar eclipse glasses.

On the block Now back to weather in Manitoba, this latest weather pattern has brought some of the nicest summertime conditions (depending on your perspective) in a while. With the dry conditions this year’s bug counts — mosquitoes, to be precise — are very low.

Combine this with temperatures in the mid- to upper 20s, not overly humid conditions and light winds and these are truly the dog days of summer.

(By the way, the original meaning of “dog days of summer” had nothing to do with hot weather and lazing around, but came from the Greeks

and referred to the dog star, Sirius, and its position in the heavens.)

What has been giving us this current weather pattern?

Whenever we see an extended period of similar or stagnant weather, good or bad, it’s usually associated with a blocking pattern. This is exactly what has been going on. We have been in what is referred to as an Omega block. There has been a low anchored off the West Coast, and another low sitting over Hudson Strait, with a fairly large ridge of high pressure stuck between these two features. You can check out the forecast for more details, but it does look like this setup will try to break down over the week.

Melting models Now, on to ice and water, and no I’m not referring to nice cool drinks. Rather, it is time to see what is going on up in the Arctic in regards to this season’s sea ice melt. If you recall, back in the spring the Arctic sea ice was at a record low going into this year’s melt season. So far this summer, conditions have not been overly favourable for melting. By the end of July, the average sea ice was at 8.2 million square kilometres, which is the fifth-lowest July since records began in 1979, and is about 1.6 million

square km below the 1981-2010 average.

How this melt season ends up will largely depend on the conditions across the Arctic during August. Of the 36 different models trying to figure out or predict Arctic sea ice melt, the average of all the models has this year coming out as the fifth-lowest sea ice extent on record. The range in the models goes from a record-low prediction to a maximum of 11th lowest.

Hot, hot heat From cold back to heat. While we have been warm, it has been downright ridiculously hot in Death Valley, California.

Appropriately named Furnace Creek broke a world record for the hottest average monthly temperature in July. The average temperature for the month was 41.9 C! That’s not a typo; that was the average temperature for the whole month. To put this into some kind of perspective, Winnipeg’s average temperature for July was 19.3 C. I have no idea how anyone or anything could deal with that kind of heat!

That’s about it for this issue; next week I’ll be writing from beautiful Riding Mountain National Park where, you guessed it, I will be running another triathlon, though a much shorter one this time.

CROPS Some soybean aphids showing up so scout your fields When populations hit 250 and are still rising consider applying an insecticide, but don’t forget to take beneficial insects into account. There’s an app for that

BY ALLAN DAWSON Co-operator staff

S

oybean aphids can now be found in many Manitoba fields and farmers should be scouting for them, John Gavloski, Manitoba Agriculture’s extension entomologist, said in an interview July 27.

As of last week populations were generally well below the economic threshold, but some higher populations did exist, he said.

Some spraying was going on in the Portage la Prairie area, Red Beard Farms aerial applicator Chris McCallister said in an interview.

The threshold for applying an insecticide to control soybean aphids is 250 and rising across 80 per cent of the field. The “rising” part is important, says Cassandra Tkachuk, production specialist with the Manitoba Pulse & Soybean Growers (MPSG).

“I hope farmers aren’t spraying unnecessarily,” Tkachuk said in an interview.

Economic injury to soybeans doesn’t occur until there are 670 soybean aphids per plant, she added. The 250-per-plant-andrising threshold is meant to give farmers enough time to arrange to spray a field if necessary. It’s recommended fields be assessed again after one or two days to see if populations are increasing.

Soybean aphid numbers are growing in North Dakota and Manitoba, the MPSG July 28 Bean Report states.

The report says farmers should assess aphids by going in a W pattern.

“They tend to prefer new growth where they can hide in the folded leaflets of new trifoliates at the top of the plant. However, they can also be found on the undersides of older leaves and along the stem.”

Farmers should not only be scouting their soybean fields for aphids, but also beneficial insects.

If present they can help control soybean aphids without applying an insecticide. Insecticide is an extra cost and will kill the beneficial insects.

Tkachuk also urges farmers to contact local beekeepers who might wish to move nearby hives before a field is sprayed.

There are many insects that prey on soybean aphids. The Aphid Advisor app available for iPhone, iPad and BlackBerr y (http://www.aphidapp.com) can help farmers determine whether they should be spraying soybean aphids or not.

The five main beneficial insects (photos are on the app) are as follows: 1) Lady beetles (adult and larvae) 2) Lacewings (adult and larvae) 3) Hover fly (Syrphid larvae)

4) Minute Pirate Bugs (Orius), (adults and nymphs) 5) Aphidoletes Soybean aphids blow in from the United States, Gavloski said. He spotted some in early July, which is normally when they show up.

The Bean Report says according to a North Dakota State University publication some soybean aphids are suspected of being resistant to pyrethroid insecticides, such as Lambda-cyhalothrin and Matador-Silencer 120EC. Farmers should take note of any insecticide failures.

Manitoba Agriculture Pulse specialist Dennis Lange has seen soybean aphids in different parts of the province this season and echoed Tkachuk on not spraying unnecessarily.

“Just because your neighbour is spraying doesn’t mean you have to be spraying,” he said. “Farmers need to be scouting their fields and looking for soybean aphids, especially under the leaves.” allan@fbcpublishing.com

CROP REPORT

Dry weather puts harvest ahead of normal Manitoba Agriculture crop report, issued August 14, 2017 Southwest Region Rainfall amounts varied. The highest recorded was Shoal Lake with 77 mm. Winter wheat and fall rye harvest continues with quality being average and yields slightly below average. Some early-seeded barley is harvested.

Barley is yielding close to longterm averages, with good quality, and lower test weights.

Canola fields are being swathed. Spraying for diamondback moth has pretty much stopped, however, producers are still spraying for bertha army worm in some areas.

Pea harvest has started. Yields are slightly above average with good quality.

Soybeans range from R4 to R5. There are reports of soybean aphids, but limited spraying has occurred.

Sunflowers are in the R5.5 to R5.6 stage. Bird damage is reported in some fields in the southwest corner of the region.

Corn is at the R2 to R3 stage.

Pastures have improved from the rain and this will help extend grazing for some producers.

Second-cut alfalfa has started in several areas that had enough regrowth to warrant a cut.

Du g o u t s h a ve i m p rove d to about 70 per cent full from recent rains.

Northwest Region High daytime temperatures have quickly advanced. Localized rain early in the week will help contribute to crop yield in later- and warm-season crops. Rainfall amounts ranged from six to 28 mm in the Swan Valley; 11 to 22 mm in the Dauphin/Ste. Rose area with McCreary receiving 35 mm.

Some pre-harvest applications have begun across the region as crops ripen and conditions allow.

Heavier crops have lodged from previous heavy rains/high winds and will pose a challenge at harvest. Swathing of canola has been reported in the Dauphin region, as well as combining of winter wheat and early-seeded barley.

The majority of spring wheat is in the dough stage, with the remainder at milk. Approximately 90 per cent of the canola is podded with 50 per cent reaching the ripe stage in the Roblin area.

Soybeans are podding. Pea harvest is underway in the Swan Valley. About 50 per cent of the flax in the Roblin area has reached the boll stage.

With the drier conditions this year and more native hay being accessible, native hay harvest is continuing. Second-cut alfalfa is also being put up with yields varying from poor to good. The Pine River area is still struggling with hay harvest due to excess moisture. Cereal silage and greenfeed harvest has begun with further progress made in the Dauphin area. Pastures are holding up and those that received rain last week are in better condition.

Central Region Rain was variable with most areas receiving less than 10 mm. Some crops are ripening prematurely due to lack of rain, especially in areas with gravel and sand ridges, and areas with salinity.

Fall rye is yielding 75 to 110 bu./ acre and winter wheat 50 to 80 bu./acre. Quality and test weight is good. Lower yields are due to winter injury.

Harvest started in spring wheat, barley, and oat. Barley yields are ranging from 80 to 110 bu./acre, with excellent quality.

Oat yields range from 130 to 170 bu./acre, with good test weight.

Early-seed colour change is evident in later-seeded canola fields. Swathing continues, as do desiccation applications for straight-cut canola. Sunscald is making crops look riper than they are. Some heat blasting is evident in mid-to late-planted canola. Some blackleg and sclerotinia is evident. Both crucifer and striped flea beetles can be found feeding on green leaves and pods, with minimal impact.

Scouting continues for bertha army worm and diamondback

Strong Black Sea wheat exports seen Moscow/ Kiev/ Reuters/ Black Sea wheat producers anticipate strong exports in the current marketing year as recent good weather has buoyed their expectations for bumper crops in Russia and Ukraine, traders and analysts said Aug. 4.

Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan, which export grain via the Black Sea mainly to customers in Africa and the Middle East, had been broadly expected to see another good harvest this year. However, they may harvest even larger wheat crops than originally thought.

“We did foresee a record crop in Russia’s south after our crop tour in late June, we also saw a record crop in Russia’s central regions in mid-July. Then we started to receive data which confirms both these facts,” said Dmitry

Rylko, the head of IKAR agriculture consultancy.

IKAR raised its forecast for Russia’s 2017-18 wheat exports by 0.5 million tonnes to 29.5 million to 31.5 million tonnes after upgrading its estimate for Russia’s 2017 wheat crop to 74 million to 77 million tonnes from 72 million to 75 million tonnes.

The quality of the crop is close to last year’s but it is too early to say whether it is better than a year ago due to a mixed situation in different regions, Rylko added.

As of Aug. 1, Ukrainian farmers had harvested 19.1 million tonnes of wheat from 77 per cent of the total area, the Agriculture Ministry said.

The average wheat yield so far is 3.90 tonnes per hectare (56 bu./ac.), up from 3.74 tonnes a year ago. The yield is higher than it was originally expected to be, and the 2017 wheat crop is currently seen at around 25 million tonnes, two traders said.

moth with a few fields in the western parts of the region near or at threshold with some spraying reported. Most diamondback moths are now in the cocoon stage, past damaging the crop.

Pea harvest continues, with yields ranging from 50 to 80 bu./ acre. Flax fields are in full boll and starting to turn.

Soybeans are in the R4 to R6 stage. Some soybeans are at R7 on knolls and ridges and are drying out, not turning. Dry conditions resulted in some upper pods not filling. Root rots are reported with rhizoctonia, fusarium root rot, pythium, and phytophthera. Monitoring for soybean aphids continues with some control required due to populations above economic thresholds.

Spider mites and white mould have been found.

Early types of edible beans are seeing some leaf drop as a result of drier conditions. White mould is being found in dense canopy areas; control measures aren’t economic at this late stage.

Most sunflowers are at later stages of flowering; R5.5 to R6 and early ray flower drop. Some basal stalk rot is evident.

Most corn is in the grain-filling stage; ranging from blister to milk.

Late blight has been detected in potatoes. Producers continue to spray to prevent infection.

Grasshoppers are being found in fields, especially in drier areas.

Monitoring continues, and some control measures have been taken where crop injury warrants.

Forage seed crops are being swathed. Stands look good, and average to above-average yields are expected.

Second-cut hay is being harvested but yields are down due to dry conditions. First cut was slightly below average. Wild hay harvest continues. Second-cut dairy-quality hay continues in areas of early first cut and where regrowth is adequate. Second-cut beef-quality hay in some western and southwestern areas is nonexistent due to poor rainfall and limited regrowth.

Pastures are dry and turning brown. Rain is needed to sustain pastures and livestock into the fall; supplemental feeding may be required earlier this year.

Livestock water supply is adequate.

Eastern Region Rainfall accumulation across the region ranged from three to 35 mm. Crop development continues at a good pace and overall condition varies from good to excellent. Soil moisture conditions on cropland across the region are rated as 80 per cent adequate and 20 per cent short with the driest soil conditions occurring in southern districts.

Soil moisture conditions on hay and pasture land are rated at 60 per cent adequate, 20 per cent short and 20 per cent very short.

Cereals are at the hard-dough/ ripe stage and are in good to excellent condition. Pre-harvest applications are almost complete. A few fields of early-seeded oats and wheat have been harvested. No yield reports as of yet.

In canola, pre-harvest applications and swathing have started.

Some late-seeded fields are at pod filling. Soybeans are in the midto late-R5 stage with some fields in R6. Monitoring continues for soybean aphid; some fields have been sprayed.

Sunflowers are in late R5 to R6. Low disease and insect pest levels continue.

Haying continues as pastures are starting to dry up. Some producers are feeding hay or moving cattle to where regrowth is good. Greenfeed silage cut with above-average yields.

The progress of the first cut of hay is estimated at 20 per cent standing, five per cent cut and 75 per cent baled/silaged. Hay quality is rated as good. Hayfield condition was rated at 80 per cent good and 20 per cent fair. Pasture conditions was rated at 50 per cent good, 20 per cent fair and 20 per cent poor and 10 per cent very poor condition. The availability of livestock water is rated as adequate to short with 25 to 30 per cent remaining in dugouts.

Interlake Region Rainfall throughout the region varied from two to 30 mm.

Winter wheat and fall rye are being harvested and show very low incidence of ergot. Winter wheat yields low, as winterkill

resulted in poor stands. Fall rye yields are average to good.

Spring cereals fields are turning with some pre-harvest applications on spring wheat. Most of the barley has been harvested with yields in the 80 to 100 bu./ acre range and good quality reported. Fusarium head blight is evident but at very low levels.

Canola in most south Interlake fields has some seed colour change and swathing and pre-harvest applications have started. Flowering in laterseeded north Interlake fields is complete. Sunscald makes the crops look more advanced than they are. High temperatures have caused flower abortions in late-seeded fields. Diamondback moths are in the cocoon stage; for the most part past the damaging larva stage.

Soybeans are R3 to R5.

Soybeans are being monitored for aphids, and some fields have been sprayed. Approximately 15 per cent of the soybean acres in the north Interlake have been sprayed for soybean aphids. Spider mites have been found at low levels.

Corn in south Interlake is silking and cobs are forming. Flax bolls are turning brown, and straw is starting to turn. Field peas are being harvested, some yielding 70 to 80 bu./acre.

Grass seed harvest continues.

Tall fescue and meadow fescue harvest is complete. Timothy yields are average, 350 to 500 pounds/acre. Perennial ryegrass is being swathed and some combined; yielding 600 to 700 pounds/acre. Reed canary seed yields have been poor due to drier conditions than that crop prefers.

Alfalfa seed crop monitoring for insects continues.

Haying continues, grasshoppers have been slowing up at low levels with limited damage.

Cereals and cereal/pea mixtures are being ensiled and yields are average to good; in the five to eight ton/acre range.

Pastures are in good to fair c o n d i t i o n . We l l - m a n a g e d pastures are showing their late-season resilience. Grass in areas in continuous hard grazed pastures are going dormant. Dugouts are 50 to 80 per cent full.

Check moisture before applying pre-harvest glyphosate SASK WHEAT RELEASE

The Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission is reminding wheat producers to know the moisture content of their crop before applying preharvest herbicides and to always apply according to the label information.

“With the increased scrutiny many chemicals are receiving, especially from export markets, it’s important to always apply them correctly,” says Sask Wheat chair Bill Gehl. “Chemical residues are a major issue for many customers and end-users of Canadian wheat.”

Farmers see the benefits of using pre-harvest glyphosate to control perennial weeds, but it is important that farmers time their application when the grain moisture content in wheat is less than 30 per cent, or at the end of the hard-dough stage. A thumbnail pressed into the kernel will leave an indent at this stage.

“It’s important we work together and follow the labels to maintain the global reputation of Canadian wheat,” says Gehl.

“It’s always a good idea to go to the elevators in your area to see if they have any concerns about wheat treated with glyphosate prior to harvest. The buyers follow the markets closely and know what residues importing countries and customers will accept.”

Province mulls carbon tax constitutionality STAFF

The province is seeking a legal opinion on the federal government’s authority to unilaterally impose carbon pricing in Manitoba.

The provincial government has asked Bryan Schwartz, a constitutional law expert at the University of Manitoba, to provide a legal opinion, Justice Minister Heather Stefanson announced recently.

“Dr. Schwartz is a wellknown Manitoba expert on constitutional law who will provide a legal opinion to help guide our government in its development of a made-inManitoba climate and carbon pricing plan,” said Stefanson in a media release.

Schwartz will provide a legal opinion on the constitutionality of the federal government’s proposed carbon pricing benchmark and backstop proposals. He will also consider the authority of the province to assert its own made-in-Manitoba plan. His report will be made public this fall.

Schwartz is a national expert in constitutional, trade and labour laws, serving as chair of the constitutional section of the Canadian Bar Association.

He has advised the governments of Canada, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Yukon in the past and has also been an adviser to the Assembly of First Nations.

4-H fuels Gambian youth quest for change

Gambia’s 4-H program may not have been directly involved in the recent shifting political sands, but 4-H members were in the fray, Global 4-H presenter says “4-H has been in my country since 1987 and since then it has been doing beautiful work to produce leaders.”

BY Alexis Stockford Co-operator staff

A

recently roused youth demographic, including 4-H members, has set its sights on social engagement in Gambia as the country takes its first steps away from the 22-year reign of former leader Yahya Jammeh.

That’s according to Ousman Sonko, vice-principal of the Rural Development Institute’s Department of Community Development and a presenter at the Global 4-H Summit in Ottawa July 11-14, 2017.

Sonko’s talk on the role of youth in national development highlighted Gambia’s political shakeup, which first ousted Jammeh in a December 2016 election in favour of current president, Adama Barrow.

There were raised tensions while Jammeh initially refused to step down, Sonko said, adding the former dictator eventually went into exile, allowing Gambia’s first parliamentary election since the December result.

G a m b i a’s y o u n g e s t v o t ers, historically a low-turnout demographic, were active in the 2016 election, driven by employment and social concerns. Unemployment plagues about 38 per cent of Gambia’s youth between the ages of 13-30, according to a 2015 report by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. At the same time, Sonko said, youth between 13-35 years old make up about 67 per cent of Gambia’s population, making them a potential political force.

It was a role that Barrow noted during an interview with Al Jazeera soon after winning the election. “ We w i l l n o t f o rg e t t h e youth,” he said. “We will focus on job creation so that we can win their confidence.”

4-H fuels democracy Sonko said youth organized voter-education events and were active in campaigning, social media and conflict resolution before and after the election.

“4-H, as a matter of fact, is at the forefront at all levels, because 4-H has been in my country since 1987 and since then it has been doing beautiful work to produce leaders. We have produced youth volunteers. We have also prod u c e d m e n t o r s,” h e s a i d .

“Some of those important forums are spearheaded by 4-H volunteers.”

Sonko also pointed to the role of sports and activ-

would positively change their attitudes and that of other people.”

“Thanks to 4-H, there are leaders who are in Gambia living in their own community up to today because they have that orientation that you can grow up in a community, live there and then still become a productive citizen,” Sonko said.

Many issues

ism in youth empowerment.

Increased literacy and connection over social media has fostered this involvement in activism, he said.

L e a d e r s h i p, s e r v i c e a n d community engagement were among the key topics as representatives from 35 countries gathered in Ottawa.

Krista Scaldwell, vice-president of communications with Great West Life and the opening keynote speaker of the summit, said 4-H could “build leaders that can have difficult dialogues,” with potential partner companies.

“We need to know what our role is and the decisions to be taking, and moving from one goal to the next,” she told the crowd. “We need leaders willing to take the risk of making decisions, even the ones that are not popular but are in the interest of the collective good… We must, as leaders, manage the work — use the passion and ambition to inspire the people. We have to support winning against the odds, but not at all costs.”

Scaldwell encouraged delegates to contact large multinational corporations and foundations for larger projects. 4-H, she said, is a good vehicle for such partnerships because of its brand.

“It has a good footprint and it has a good corporate history,” she said. “It needs to go to the top level, go to the glo-

bal sustainability chiefs, go to the foundations. To try and do it one local at a time is near impossible.”

Global 4-H aids Gambia The Global 4-H Network, only founded in 2014, has been a boon to 4-H Gambia as the African 4-H program looks for international support on its three-year strategic plan, Sonko said.

“No one institution has everything. No institution has the required human material and finances and resources at any point in time. So the way forward is that we must find part-

nerships to complement the efforts of each other,” he said.

Urban migration is among those issues 4-H Gambia hopes to reduce. Agriculture makes up 75 per cent of the country’s workforce, according to the CIA World Factbook, and featured heavily on the campaign trail during the 2016 election.

Citizenship, education, rural self-sufficiency and empowerment were foremost among the 2017-19 strategic plan goals, along with a call to, “create awareness of people’s rights and responsibilities to enable them to become proactive community members who

The organization has also tackled environmental sustainability and health concerns such as sanitation and HIV/AIDS. “The purpose of the organization is doing comprehensive 4-H activities by equipping members with information and practical knowledge of taking care of agriculture, horticulture, animal husbandry and domestic duties (and) through purposeful economic and social deeds, to change the attitudes of the youth from passive to active,” the document reads.

One of the least-developed countries in the world, Gambia had a per capita GDP of US$479 annually in 2013, according to the International Monetary Fund, and the country continues to suffer under a heavy debt burden.

Like Canada, 4-H Gambia is volunteer based. Unlike Canada, most volunteers are still school aged themselves. The new strategic plan hopes to recruit 50,000 volunteers and train them in both interpersonal skills and entrepreneurship.

Likewise, the country has been historically reliant on international aid programs, something 4-H Gambia hopes to curb with increased focus on life skill and entrepreneurship training.

“Part of the intention of this presentation is to inspire others to also go and initiate similar activities, so I am highly optimistic that with continuous collaboration and partnership and interaction between us and the outside world, we will not only learn from them, but they will learn from us and we will also inspire them,” Sonko said. astockford@farmmedia.com

Prairie fare Gazpacho is a refreshing change in hot weather Tomatoes, an ingredient in gazpacho, are rich in nutrients and low in calories

BY JULIE GARDEN-ROBINSON NDSU Extension Service

“

W

e’re going to have cold soup,” I said to my older daughter and husband. We were in our kitchen talking about the upcoming evening meal.

“Gross,” my daughter remarked. She likes soup but expects it to be hot.

I gathered tomatoes, red and green peppers, celery, an onion, a lemon and a cucumber, along with two cutting boards and two knives. I began rinsing all the produce under cool water.

“I suppose we will be eating this for a week,” my husband grumbled as he noted the lineup of colourful produce on the cutting boards.

I gave both of them “the look” that only mothers and wives can deliver so compellingly.

My husband sneaked out of the kitchen.

He probably thought that one of the cutting boards was earmarked for his use.

My daughter and I began to chop the fresh vegetables.

“We’re making gazpacho,” I noted to my unimpressed daughter. “This is amazingly nutritious.”

My daughter became more interested in the recipe when I pulled out the food processor and the lemon juicer. She likes kitchen gadgets. Soon our bowl of gazpacho was ready to be chilled in the refrigerator to allow the flavours to meld.

Gazpacho originated in Spain and also is eaten widely in Portugal, especially during warm summer days. You can find numerous recipes online featuring numerous TV chefs’ creations.

When I was young, no one could have got me to eat cold soup filled with raw tomatoes.

When everyone enjoyed fresh-from-the-garden tomatoes on a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich, or BLT, I was content with a “BL” sandwich.

When the Garden family ate sliced tomatoes sprinkled with sugar as dessert, I had no dessert.

I’m quite sure I never had fresh salsa until I went to college. I discovered that onions and peppers made the tomatoes palatable.

Tomato plants occupy a lot of space in our present-day garden. The thought of ripe tomatoes topped with fresh mozzarella, balsamic vinegar and basil leaves makes my mouth water.

Tomatoes are rich in nutrients and low in calories at just 35 calories per medium tomato. They are an excellent source of

vitamins C and A. They also provide potassium, which helps maintain a healthy blood pressure.

Tomatoes are among the best sources of lycopene, which is the disease-fighting pigment responsible for tomatoes’ red colour.

In fact, one study showed that men who had two or more servings of tomatoes per week cut their prostate cancer risk by more than one-third.

Vine-ripened tomatoes are in season, so try some novel ways to use them on your menu or preserve them to enjoy during the long winter months.

Fresh From the Garden Gazpacho

1-1/2 tsp. ground cumin

1-1/2 c. diced tomatoes (about 2 medium)

Chopped cilantro (optional garnish)

1 medium cucumber, diced into 1/4-inch pieces

Other optional add-ins, to taste (1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce, 1

2 red bell peppers, seeded and diced into 1/4-inch pieces

tsp. balsamic vinegar)

1 green pepper, seeded and diced into 1/4-inch pieces

Before preparing produce, rinse it thoroughly under cool, running water. Prepare as described and combine all ingredients except lemon juice, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Remove two cups of the chopped mixture and place in a second large bowl. In a food processor or blender,

1 small jalapeno pepper, diced (optional) 2 celery stalks, diced into 1/4-inch pieces 1 lemon, juiced 1 c. low-sodium V-8 tomato juice (or similar product) 1-1/2 tsp. minced garlic

1/2 c. cilantro, chopped Salt and pepper, to taste

After picking them, store them at room temperature, not in the refrigerator. If your tomatoes aren’t quite fully ripe after picking, avoid placing them in the sun because that may damage them. Fully ripe tomatoes can be stored in the refrigerator, but they will not soften further.

To skin tomatoes easily, try this method: Heat a pot of water to boiling, add the tomatoes for about 30 seconds, then plunge them into cold water. Make an “X” on the blossom end with a knife and the skin will peel easily.

Lots to see in south-central Manitoba A drive to Altona and Neubergthal provided many interesting spots to explore

By Donna Gamache Freelance contributor

I

f you’re looking for an interesting trip this summer, take a drive to south-central Manitoba. My husband and I discovered many spots of interest to explore in that area.

Our first stop was in Altona at the Gallery in the Park, a combination art gallery and sculpture garden located at 245-10th Avenue NW. The gallery is situated in a historic home, built in 1902. In its previous life, it served as a house, a Bible school residence, and a bed and breakfast, but since 2005 it has been transformed, under the auspices of the Friesens Corporation (an Altona-based printer) into a gallery with art exhibitions during the summer. We took a look at the paintings displayed, but the gallery in the park section was what intrigued us most.

The park has a selection of 20 permanent sculptures, as well as a few others on loan. A narrow pool runs the length of the grounds, and there’s a patio, pergola and a fountain. Trees and flowers add colour and shade, but the sculptures are the main attraction, which vary in type from traditional wildlife sculptures, to more modern ones done in bronze, to one done in reclaimed steel.

The inside gallery is open from 12 to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday, June to September, while the garden is open all week, 8

a.m. to 10 p.m. Admission is free, but a donation box is provided.

For more information and to view a pamphlet of the sculptures, check out www.galleryinthepark. ca.

Before you leave town, drive east from the gallery along 10th Avenue to about 5th Street NE where you’ll find a giant steel three-legged easel showing Van Gogh’s sunflowers. Over 23 metres tall, the easel celebrates Altona’s claim to be the “sunflower capital of Canada.”

A few kilometres south and east of Altona, on Highway 421, is another interesting place — the Neubergthal Street Village.

Famous for it housebarns, this village was designated a Canadian National Historic Site in 1989.

Neubergthal was founded in 1876 by a group of related Mennonite families from the Bergthal Colony in Russia. The settlers established their homes in their traditional single-street, tree-lined village form, with long narrow farmsteads and dwellings at right angles to the street. The settlers worked co-operatively to build houses and harvest crops, and to maintain roads, and a communal pasture.

The Neubergthal Heritage Foundation was established to preserve the historical aspects of the village, including several housebarns. These are long single units, laid out with similar floor plans, with the house attached at one end. The barn section is constructed with a cen-

tral aisle running the total length with stalls for cattle and horses on each side. (Pigs and chickens were kept in other smaller sheds.)

There was also plenty of storage room for feed grain, harnesses, tools, milking equipment, etc.

Various antiques are stored there now.

One of these original structures appears to be in disrepair, but others have been renovated and are used as private dwellings. Visitors are welcome at the Friesen housebarn which has been restored as an interpretive centre/museum.

We explored the dwelling section where features of particular interest include wooden floors painted in patterns, and Dutch doors (divided top and bottom)

set in each house in the same location, so if all the top sections were opened, one could see through the houses from one end of the village to the other.

Entrances from the house go directly into the barn and one could go from the upstairs bedrooms right into the barn loft.

Entry to the Friesen housebarn/museum costs $5. The sign isn’t very large or noticeable, but a drive down the single street will let you locate it. Summer hours vary (closed Tuesday and Wednesday) so check the website http://www.neubergthalher itagefoundation.com/new-page/ or call 204-304-1624.

‘Living on the edge’

Garden areas will be much more attractive if the edges are kept sharp and clean

By Albert Parsons Freelance contributor

I

wish more gardeners would “live on the edge.”

So often I admire gardens or landscapes and they would be even more terrific IF the gardeners paid more attention to their edges. My advice? “Live on the edge” — keep your edges sharp and clean. Edging simply means cleaning up the line between turf and non-turf areas, and nothing improves the appearance more than to have beds, borders and other turf edges clearly delineated and sharply edged. Whether it’s an island flower bed, a large perennial border along the perimeter of the landscape, a shrub bed or a vegetable patch, if the area has a good edge, it will look its best.

Edges require regular maintenance to keep them clean and crisp, although how the edges are constructed and whether there is hardscape involved will affect the amount of maintenance re q u i re d . T h e re a re t w o reasons that edging must be done regularly, particularly if the edges involve turf next to cultivated soil. The first is that roots of grass quickly

invade nearby cultivated areas and soon grass is growing within the boundaries of the cultivated areas, making the line between grass and soil uneven and unkempt. The second thing that occurs is that blades of grass begin to grow sideways along the edge of the turf and this means that the lawn mower does not cut them off, so the edge becomes irregular and shaggy looking.

I do many things in my garden the old-fashioned way and edging is but one of them. I edge by getting on my knees with a pair of scissors and a sharp hand trowel.

I snip along the edge line with the scissors and gather up the cut-off grass. Then I can easily observe where the grass has invaded the cultivated soil and with my trowel, remove the offending roots.

I use a clawed hand tool to rake the soil to level it and to make the soil surface look more attractive. I remove any weeds, damaged branches, or other debris from along the edge of the cultivated area.

There are many tools on the market and some of my gardening friends think I’m crazy to edge this way. However, I take the opportunity while I am in close proximity to the plants to observe how they

are doing and to catch any problems that might go unnoticed if I was standing. For the major edging operations in the spring and fall I use a sharp square-mouthed spade to edge these areas because I like to create somewhat of a gully between the turf and the cultivated soil to help prevent grass from invading.

To avoid much of this chore, there are edging materials available that can be installed along turf edges, such as bricks, cement curbing, plastic edging material and land-

Wouldn’t this planting be more attractive if the edges were crisp and clean?

scape boards. I much prefer the clean line produced by just having the turf meet the cultivated soil.

For those who want a less labour-intensive approach, be aware that all physical edges will require some maintenance, but the more solid the material used, the less work that will be required.

For example, bricks look nice but grass and weeds eventually grow between the bricks.

It is necessary to lift the bricks periodically to remove the weeds, grass and roots that

have grown between them.

Solid cement curbing does not have this problem but it is usually not installed deeply enough to inhibit grass roots from growing underneath.

Over time, the grass will spring up on the wrong side of the curbing and will have to be dealt with.

I’m not a big fan of lining an edge with stones or rocks.

Grass and weeds invariably find their way among this and edging then becomes even more difficult than it would have been had the edge been left natural. Vinyl edging seems to work well, although it must be installed properly so that the lawn mower will not catch it and rip it. It must be deep enough to prevent invasive grass roots from growing under it. I don’t use it because I don’t like its appearance — there is nothing natural looking about plastic edging products.

If you want your garden to look neat and tidy, get out the kneeling pad, scissors and trowel and start edging — just consider it another wonderful opportunity to spend time outdoors enjoying fresh air and sunshine in your garden!

Reduce, reuse and recycle our precious water With only a small percentage of Earth’s water being usable we need to protect it

Water recycling is reusing treated waste water for beneficial purposes such as agricultural and landscape irrigation, industrial processes, toilet flushing, and replenishing a groundwater basin (referred to as groundwater recharge). Water recycling offers resource and financial savings.

RRBC release

A

s temperatures soar during the summer months and dry conditions set in, it is more important than ever to conserve those precious drops of water. Although there is the same amount of water on Earth today as when the water formed, only a small percentage of it is usable and that usable amount is decreasing as time passes. Then you add drought conditions and high summer temperatures and you have a recipe for water shortage and the need to reduce, reuse and recycle.

There are many ways we can reduce how we use water in our homes from not watering lawns, turning off the faucet when brushing teeth, limiting shower time, etc. Water recycling is reusing treated waste water for beneficial purposes such as agricultural and landscape irrigation, industrial processes, toilet flushing, and replenishing a groundwater basin (referred to as groundwater recharge). Water recycling offers resource and financial savings.

Here’s some ways to reuse water in the home:

Reuse drinking water

Collect rainwater in a barrel to be used around the home. Photo: Thinkstock

Install a rain barrel Instead of using supplied water to water your garden, you can collect rainwater in a rain barrel for this purpose. Use this collected water for different purposes at home.

Save pasta water Next time you make pasta, don’t let the precious water go down the drain. Instead, keep the colander over a pot to collect that

water. Once it has cooled down, use it to water your garden or for other purposes at home.

Save when you wash fruits and vegetables The water that you used to wash your fruits or vegetables is also suitable to reuse at home. Place the colander over a pot to collect this water, and use it to flush the toilet or water the garden.

If a water bottle is sitting for too long, and you do not wish to drink it, then go to your garden and feed a thirsty plant with it.

Did you know that unsweetened tea can also be poured on plants?

Install a grey water system

Recycle aquarium water

When you do laundry or wash your hands in the basin, the water that usually goes down the drain can be redirected for other purposes at home. For example, water draining from your laundry can be diverted to flush the toilet. Installing such a system requires plumbing and a little investment, but it’s worth it.

Another useful trick to reuse water at home is to recycle dirty aquarium water to make fertilizer for your plants.

Reuse unwanted ice Instead of just dumping that unwanted ice down the drain, spread it in your garden, and let the process of evaporation do the rest.

Collect shower water If you are going to take a hot shower, the water temperature takes a couple of minutes to reach a comfortable level.

So, by the time the water gets heated, keep a bucket b e n e a t h t o s t o re t h e c o l d water.

Divert your roof run-off If it is rainy season, keep a barrel under your roof’s drain and collect the water. Use this to water your garden, do the dishes or wash the cars.

Create a rain garden With a little retouching, you can create a garden in which the run-off from plants from hanging baskets is diverted to plants in the lower parts.

These are just a few ideas you can implement in your daily lives to reuse water, but why stop there? Together with your family, identify other ways to reuse water, then share how your household is using creative techniques to reuse this precious resource.

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.

When this photo was taken in 1962, there were three elevators in the village of Strathclair. The United Grain Growers elevator in the foreground dates from around 1930 and its crib annex from 1957. The Manitoba Pool elevator in the background was opened by the Province Elevator Company in 1933. Sold to the Pool in 1948, a new elevator was built in 1957 and the older elevator was converted to an annex, later replaced with two large crib annexes. All elevators, including one in the middle owned by Pioneer Grain, were sold to Pool in 1974 and have since been removed from the site. Photo: University of Manitoba Archives & Special Collections

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!
