Debolt Diamonds Travel Club Hello Travellers!!

r0011076364

I am sure some of you will recognize me. I have been organizing and Tour Directing bus tours from G.P. for the past 15 years with Mar-Mar Coach Tours, Bezanson’s Golden Years Club and The Debolt Senior’s Centre.

We have travelled to Edmonton, Fort McMurray, MacKenzie, The Passion Play in Drumheller, Waterton Lakes, The Calgary Stampede, Victoria by Via Rail, 3 Valley Gap, The Accordian Festival in Kimberley, The Norsk Hostfest in Minot N.D., flown to Nashville Tennessee and more over the years.

I have to say I have loved every minute of it, as I am sure most all of my travellers will attest to. I believe I have even more fun than anyone on the bus!

Recently I have formed the Diamonds Travel Club. Memberships are only $25 a year and as a member, you receive a $75 discount off the first tour you take as a member, and $50 off of all future tours. Lots of other membership benefits are available as well.

My goal is not only to make the club affordable but to also assist travellers without partners to be able to travel too. Members may draw from our membership list to find a compatible traveller to share with. Accommodations are so much more economical when shared.

I would like to invite all pat travellers and welcome all adults interested in future travel who would like updates on future destinations, to phone Dawn @ 780-957-2478 to get added to our mailing / email list.

I look forward to seeing my past travelling friends and meeting new ones as we ‘hit the road’ to exciting adventures. info4diamondtravelclub@gmail.com Warmest Regards - Lynda

July 9, 2015 - Continuing the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization 2015 International Year of Soils (IYS) celebration in Alberta, the Agricultural Research and Extension Council of Alberta (ARECA) has released the schedule for the second visit to Alberta by Dr. Christine Jones, internationally recognised soil ecologist. Her visit to Alberta in 2014 challenged attendees’ thinking regarding regenerative land management and the soil nutrient cycle.

Farming for soil health enhances biodiversity and increases biological activity, both of which are absent in current production technology. The result is soil resource degradation. Christine will speak about how we can sequester carbon/organic matter, improve productivity and even create new topsoil. Perhaps most importantly to Albertans would be the improved infiltration and water holding capacity that can be realized.

Dr. Jones opens her field school tour in High River on Thursday, July 23 at an event hosted by the Foothills Forage & Grazing Association; followed by Oyen on Friday, July 24 hosted by the Chinook Applied Research Association (CARA); Rycroft on July 28 hosted by the Peace Country Beef and Forage Association (PCBFA); Manning on Wednesday, July 29 hosted by the North Peace Applied Research Association (NPARA); Westlock on Friday, July 31 hosted by the Gateway Research Organization (GRO); Bonnyville on Tuesday, August 4 hosted by the Lakeland Applied Research Association (LARA); and closing out in Forestburg on Wednesday, August 5 at an event hosted by the Battle River Research Group (BRRG).

The IYS 2015 aims to increase awareness and understanding of the importance of soil for food security and essential ecosystem functions. ARECA and 8 member associations are observing IYS with a number of events and activities culminating in the Western Canada Conference on Soil Health in Edmonton, December 8-10, 2015.

Interested groups, individuals and media interested in attending any of the field tours are encouraged to get in contact with the hosting ARECA member association for events details like date, time and location or to register for the event.

B.C. Government supports the future of agriculture MERRITT , July 7, 2015 - The Province of B.C. has signed a new 10-year memorandum of understanding (MOU) with 4-H British Columbia to help engage young British Columbians with careers in agriculture.

While visiting a new 4-H club in Merritt, Minister of Agriculture Norm Letnick presented the provincial organization with a cheque for $87,000, the province’s financial commitment to the program each fiscal year.

The MOU will support 4-H British Columbia in its 100 years plus of operation by helping its members learn about farming and food production. 4-H is a well-known program for teaching young British Columbians life and job skills that will guide them to a successful career in agriculture and beyond.

The 4-H clubs in B.C. focus on transferring agriculture knowledge and skills from one generation to another through 4-H leaders and volunteers. In addition, urban youth are able to connect to ag-

riculture through a variety of projects, such as poultry, rabbit, dog, gardening, crafts, sewing, and many more.

The Ministry of Agriculture Youth Development staff deliver conferences to 4-H clubs and work closely with registered volunteers. These committed volunteers lend their time and knowledge to mentor youth and help them gain experience in a variety of agriculture traditions. This leads to increased interest in agriculture that can help sustain the industry for future generations. The program plays a vital part in supporting a diverse and growing economy.

4-H stands for head, heart, hand and health. 4-H members range in age from six to 25 years old and are part of clubs in more than 50 B.C. communities. The program encourages young people to become productive, self-assured adults and promotes knowledge, leadership, citizenship and personal development.

Quotes:

Minister of Agriculture Norm Letnick

“The future of the agriculture sector is with these kids participating in 4-H. It’s very rewarding as the Minister of Agriculture to meet young British Columbians who are keen to learn and show interest in farming. It’s important to the province to support programs like 4-H.” Fraser-Nicola MLA Jackie Tegart “4-H clubs are a vital part of our community. The program encourages youth to get involved and participate in the agriculture traditions that have been passed down from generations. The life and leadership skills young people take away from 4-H is going keep local economies strong and diverse in the future.”

Kevin Rothwell, manager, 4-H British Columbia “4-H British Columbia is very pleased to have strong support from the province as today’s learners become

tomorrow’s leaders in agriculture and industry. This agreement provides the stability to continue to involve more British Columbians in our world class youth development program.”

Allison Guichon, 4-H Club A leader, Nicola Valley “I think 4-H is an amazing program for youth! It teaches skills that are transferable to everyday life such as public speaking, record keeping, and financial management, in addition to the responsibility of raising and caring for their projects. The provincial opportunities allow members to widen their views of agriculture by exposing them to other types. Overall, 4-H is a wonderful program, and I am pleased to see so many youth continue to develop their skills year after year, and I am particularly pleased to see such interest locally and have so many members in our new club! I wish to thank the Government of B.C. for their support of both youth and agriculture.”

The Northern Horizon, July 17, 2015

On the lookout for canola killing bug Jonny Wakefield Alaska Highway News July 6/15 Inspectors will comb fields in the Peace Region this week on the lookout for a pest that has northern canola producers shaking in their boots.

As part of the Peace Canola Survey, Agriculture Canada scientists will inspect several hundred canola fields in the Peace over the next few days. They'll be keeping a close eye out for the cabbage seedpod weevil, a three to four millimeter-long insect that can decimate canola crops.

Once a concern limited to producers in Southern Alberta, the weevil appears to be trending north.

While the bug hasn't been observed in the B.C. or Alberta Peace, Canola Council of Canada Agronomist Gregory Sekulic said farmers are keeping an eye out for the weevils as the warming climate allows them to spread

north.

"We didn't think they would move this far north, but we are monitoring for them," he said. "They can be quite devastating." The weevils lay their eggs in canola pods and eat the plant's seeds. Last year, adult weevils were spotted as far north as Lacombe, Alta. They are also spreading east into Saskatchewan.

Sekulic said scientists monitoring for the bug will tend to recommend pesticide if more than two adult weevils are spotted in a given area. Introduction of a parasitic wasp that preys on the weevils has also proved effective at containing the threat.

According to a Canola Council report, the weevils can reduce yields on affected crops by 15 to 20 per cent.

Last summer canola accounted for 98,000 of the 280,000 hectares under cultivation in the B.C. Peace. reporter@dcdn.ca

Breakfast Brief

Uncertainty abound With weather creating a fairly volatile trading in the grain markets, compounding the situation is economic uncertainty in Europe and China. Wheat prices are being resilient as drier conditions in Western Canada, Europe, & even Argentina continue to provide fodder for bulls to be loud, but the U.S. winter wheat harvest is picking up pace with combines going full tilt in the Southern Plains. With a stronger U.S. dollar because of the aforementioned economic concerns, canola continues to enjoy some solid prices, but I’m not quite so certain we’re at a top yet as we still have some more critical days in the growing season to get through yet.

On Friday, July 10th we got another installment of the U.S.D.A.’s W.A.S.D.E. report but despite the various weather issues affecting crops around the world, the report was relatively “blah”. U.S. average corn and soybean yields were left at 168.8 bu/ac and 46 bu/ ac respectively but production for both row crops fell from the June estimate to 13.53 billion bushels (-100 million bushels) and 3.776 billion bushels (-7.4 million bushels) respectively thanks to lower acreage. As for ending stocks, the 2015/16 carryout for corn was set at 1.6 Billion bushels (102 million bushels less than June’s estimate) and 425 billion bushels for soybeans (-50 million bushels). For wheat, some big surprises were seen on the bearish side of the trade as production was pushed higher by 27 million bushels in the U.S. to 2.15 billion bushels (albeit the quality is certainly in question when it comes to the winter wheat crop). As for the 2015/16 carryout, wheat numbers are now pegged at 842 million bushels (+28 million from June) and 219.8 million tonnes on a global perspective (+17.4 million tonnes from June!). Global corn ending stocks for the 2015/16 marketing year were seen 5.25 million tonnes lower at 190 million tonnes, while soybean numbers were dropped by 1.42 million tonnes to 91.8 million.

On that note, most recent crop progress reports show that the quality of corn and soybean fields haven’t fallen as much as the market is thinking, which is why any rallies have been reigned in, with corn holding above the $4/bushel handling while soybeans straddle $10.

However, most of the market is expecting the U.S.D.A. will have to further downgrade their expectations over the next two months going into Harvest 2015 as the closer we get to combines hitting the field, the better idea we have of what Mother Nature has actually helped grow (or not grow in some places).

Overall, the report focused mostly on the supply side of the equation but we need to keep our eyes on demand too! Specifically on the feed side, a wet May and damp June has created some of the best pasture conditions in years for livestock producers in the U.S. Southern Plains, especially Texas, whereas there’s now some speculation that more Canadian animals could be sent south to the U.S. (the pastures are literally way greener than on the Canadian side of the border!). Ultimately, the U.S. herd size is expanding while the Canadian is likely shrinking, leveling out some of the supply and demand of feed grains. That being said, I have to play the reminder card that substitution effects will start to play out if feed grain costs stay high (i.e. switching out barley and wheat for other rations), even as more livestock head to the U.S. (you still gotta feed the animals you have!).

Insurance coverage: how much do you really need?

Do you recommend producers have their employees under workers’ compensation as well as having liability insurance, or is it enough to have just one?

I would say, first and foremost, if you’re eligible, purchase workers’ compensation.

It’s different in every province. Some allow family members to be on workers’ compensation. Second, carry liability insurance. Everyone asks, “How much liability insurance should I buy?” and I always say, “As much as you can,” because you don’t know what claim might occur.

What about contract workers on the farm?

If you have a contractor coming onto your property, whether it’s an electrician, a plumber, or even a custom farming operation doing some combining or spraying, ask for written confirmation of workers’ compensation coverage and commercial general liability coverage.

By law, if that person is on your property working for you and they fail to have workers’ compensation and general liability, you then become the employer and are liable and responsible for that person whether they hurt themselves or injure someone else.

Are producers liable even if they’ve taken all due

care and attention, or only in cases where things haven’t been done properly?

In both cases, you could be drawn in. Nothing prevents someone from attempting to sue you. Even though you may be found not liable in our court system, you still have defence costs and that could be in the tens, twenties or even hundreds of thousands of dollars depending on the complexity of the case.

With general insurance, do you find that producers have adequate coverage or are there gaps?

There are two big shortfalls I often find when I do a review of insurance. One is coverage on the farm buildings. Many times we have buildings that were built 20 or 30 years ago with a work crew, bringing in some neighbours to help out, and they put up a building fairly inexpensively. Unfortunately, in that 20 or 30 years’ time, all the constructions costs have increased exponentially.

The second huge gap we see is tool coverage. When you have a farm that is multi-generational, you have a multi-generational accumulation of tools and equipment. You can walk into a farm shop and some of them are fantastic. There are hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of tools on more and more farms. All of a sudden when it comes time to claim, they’ve never updated their list and walked through that shop with their insurance provider to create a replacement cost evaluation.

Can a producer get replacement value on a building when the depreciated value of that building on paper might not be anywhere near replacement value?

Where we see a little bit of confusion is when there might be an asset on the farm that’s been depreciated, but it’s a great building – it’s solid, has good bones, and there’s upkeep and maintenance.

If we have a building at 25 years old, but there’s full upkeep and maintenance – it’s in great shape, the shingles aren’t curling, the electrical is all updated – there is the opportunity for a full replacement cost as long as we have insured a value.

What about business interruption insurance? Why is it important?

Business interruption is a huge issue, not only in agriculture but in any other industry buying insurance.

The statistics say that 50 per cent of businesses never re-open after a major loss because of lack of, or inadequate, business interruption insurance. Essentially, business interruption insurance is income replacement.

Let’s say we have a dairy barn operation that burns to the ground. That farmer is going to have ongoing expenses and costs to be paid, but he’s not getting a monthly milk cheque because he’s not producing anything.

REID HENDERSON Raised on a mixed farm near Minitonas, Man., Reid has over 20 years of insurance experience and expertise.

He is the leader of risk management and insurance for Agri-Trend Business Management, shares his advice to producers on workers’ compensation, liability and property coverage, and more.

For grain operations, it’s not so much a business interruption exposure, but a loss of use exposure.

The combine always burns on September 5, it’s never in May. So it’s the middle of harvest, the combine burns, you should have enough loss of use coverage in that policy to go out and rent another combine.

Should producers expect their insurance broker to actually come out to the farm and look at things?

Absolutely. Insist on what I call the “kitchen table meeting” or “in-farm office sit down.” It’s over that cup of coffee that a lot of things will be picked up – risks and exposures that you as a farmer may not have realized, or your agent or broker may not have known about.

Stocks at Primary Elevators- Week 48

4-H British Columbia (July 7, 2015) - The competition was fierce as top 4-H public speakers and demonstration teams from around the province took the stage to compete in this past weekend’s 4-H British Columbia 4-H Provincial Communication Finals held at the Historic O’Keefe Ranch in Vernon this past weekend. 22 senior 4-H members from across British Columbia competed at the event. These 4-H members are the cream of the crop, having won at the club, district and regional level to be given the opportunity to compete at the provincial level.

There were two divisions in the 4-H British Columbia Provincial Communication Finals weekend, speeches and demonstrations. This year’s participants competed will be vying for prizes in both divisions which include an all-expenses paid trip to Canadian Young Speakers for Agriculture competition at the Royal Winter in Toronto, ON in November for the top public speaker with prize money available to 2nd and 3rd winners. The top demonstration team won $600 with additional cash going to 2nd, and 3rd place winners too.

In order to get to the Provincial level, competitors competed at various levels with a prepared speech, 5-7 minutes in length on any topic of their choice. However, once they get to the provincial level, competitors were given 40 minutes to prepare an impromptu speech based on Okanagan agriculture tours they went on the day before which this year included tour stops at the Paynter’s Farm Market, Davison Orchard and De Dood Dairy. A demonstration shows how to perform a task or skill using precise instructions for each step of the task or skill. Demonstrations are fascinating to watch as youth give through presentations physically demonstrating to give continuity to the task or skill.

The winners of the 4-H British Columbia Provincial Communication Finals are Public Speaking 1. Morgan Meir 2. Katrina Jones 3. Matthew Smith Demonstrations 1. Meghan McGillivray & Sara Kate Smith 2. Kaila Kondo & Sara Satran-McCuaig 3. Clifford Clemotte & Maria Clemotte Congratulations to all the competitors on a job well done. All of the judges noted how close the placings were!

4-H British Columbia would also like to thank all of our sponsors for making this program possible for our 4-H members: BC Ministry of Agriculture, Agriculture and AgriFoods Canada, Farm Credit Canada, Westgen, Federated Cooperatives Limited, Armstrong Regional Coop, Mutual Fire Insurance Company of British Columbia, 4-H Canada, 4-H British Columbia Foundation and 4-H British Columbia Provincial Council. r001935752

Alberta Government surveying grazing leaseholders this September

PEACE GRAIN FUTURE PRICES 9:15 a.m. - July 10, 2015 Don Biegel

NAGLA asking all Northern Alberta leaseholders to participate in fall survey Barb Gaultier, NAGLA, June 29th, 2015 - When most people hear “Government” and “surveys” they groan!

Over the past few years, the Government of Alberta, in conjunction with agricultural groups such as the Northern Alberta Grazing Leaseholders Association, Western Stock Grower’s Association, Alberta Beef Producers and Alberta Grazing Leaseholders Association have been working to establish a credible grazing lease formula that is viable, fair and best reflects the interests of grazing leaseholders in Alberta.

The rental rates, now to be referred to as Royalty rates for grazing leases were to be renewed in 2014, but were frozen due to BSE. As with everything, costs naturally go up. All public land fees and surface material royalties were increased in 2015 with the exception of grazing lease assignment fees which are currently being worked on. All royalty rates except for grazing disposition royalty rates are facing increases that will be implemented in the future.

Hence a “survey” will be sent out sometime this September from the Alberta Government to grazing leaseholders throughout Alberta. This survey will capture investments as well as operating costs and will be inflated annually based on the Alberta Consumer Price Index. Therefore it is imperative that this survey be filled out accurately and reflect the true costs of operating and maintaining a grazing lease.

Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this survey, you can call the Northern Alberta Grazing Leaseholders Association at (780)296-5627, and they will assist you with understanding the interpretation of your statistical information. Your completion of this survey is most important to the operation and sustainability of grazing leaseholders in Northern Alberta.

Crop Disease Update AGRI-NEWS JULY 13, 2015

The past few weeks have shown that hot dry temperatures are not enough to keep diseases away. The following four pathogens were recently confirmed in southern Alberta: Wheat streak mosaic virus (on spring wheat) Aster yellows phytoplasma (on spring wheat) Clavibacter michiganensis pv. nebraskensis causing Goss’s bacterial leaf blight (on grain corn) Xanthomonas translucens pv. undulosa causing bacterial leaf stripe (on wheat) For more information on symptom recognition and management of these diseases see the links below.

Dairy Code strengthens expectations of care for B.C. cows Wed, July 8, 2015 SURREY - The B.C. government is adopting the National Dairy Code of Practice (Dairy Code) to improve the welfare of dairy cows in this province.

Animal welfare is a team effort and the announcement today at the BC SPCA Surrey Branch is supported by representatives from the BC SPCA and the BC Dairy Association, Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick said today.

The Dairy Code of Practice outlines standards of care and practices for owners and employees on dairy farms across Canada. It includes an array of applicable areas such as animal handling, feed and water, housing, health and welfare management, and husbandry practices.

Dairy Code strengthens expectations of care for BC cows Over the past year, the B.C. government, BC SPCA, BC Dairy Association, BC Milk Marketing Board and the provincial dairy industry as a whole have been working closely on ways to further strengthen industry measures which protect the welfare of dairy cattle at B.C. dairy operations. The Dairy Code defines accepted management practices for farmers to use in their daily operations to ensure dairy cows in B.C. are treated with care and respect, each and every day.

Charges under B.C.’s Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act can be laid against anyone who causes suffering or distress to an animal in British Columbia, including owners, managers and employees in the agriculture sector. The maximum penalties that can be levied under provincial legislation against a person who is convicted of causing distress to an animal is $75,000 and up to 24 months imprisonment, the toughest in Canada.

There are just under 500 licensed dairy producers in B.C. with the majority of the operations located in the Fraser Valley. The remaining producers

r001949948

are located in the Thompson-Okanagan, Vancouver Island, Bulkley Valley, Cariboo, Kootenay and Peace River.

Quotes: Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick “As a society, we always need to be working together to ensure all animals in British Columbia are treated with proper care and respect. A conversation on how we could work better with the BC SPCA and the provincial dairy industry turned into action, resulting in the National Dairy Code of Practice being adopted here in B.C. The Dairy Code outlines acceptable care and handling practices for dairy cattle, and I want to thank both the BC Dairy Association and the BC SPCA for their commitment to animal welfare, and working co-operatively to improve it.”

BC SPCA chief executive officer Craig Daniell “We couldn’t be more pleased that this day has come. The B.C. government has listened to our concerns about the humane treatment of farm animals.

We are delighted by this new regulation that will improve our ability to protect dairy cattle.”

BC Dairy Association chief executive officer Dave Eto “The dairy industry in British Columbia is dedicated to ongoing and continual improvement of animal care practices. As an industry, we expect individual dairy producers to have excellent animal care practices at all times.

We are pleased with the announcement today.”

Quick Facts: In April 2015, the Government of British Columbia and the BC SPCA recognized Animal Abuse Prevention Day at an event outside Victoria’s Parliament Buildings.

The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act was updated in 2011 to have the toughest penalties in Canada.

The maximum penalties that can be levied under provincial legislation

against a person who is convicted of causing distress to an animal is $75,000 and up to 24 months imprisonment.

Balanced Budget 2015 committed $5 million to the BC SPCA. This funding is supporting an eight-year facilities

plan that will replace or renovate aging BC SPCA facilities in 10 B.C. communities including Vancouver, Nanaimo, Kamloops, Kelowna, Prince George, Dawson Creek and the Kootenays.

5 myths about spaying and neutering your pet 1. Myth: My dog or cat will become fat and lazy after being spayed.

Fact: Cats and dogs become fat and lazy because they are being fed too many calories (either in the form of food or as treats) and because they are inactive. It is true that spaying or neutering reduces caloric needs by about 20%, so it is often necessary to feed less after the procedure. However, regardless of reproductive status, the energy needs of your pet will decrease as it matures into an adult. All adult pets (intact or not) should be fed according to their weight and activity levels.

2. Myth: My dog or cat should have one litter before being spayed. She will have a more complete personality and it is good for her body.

Fact: In fact bearing one litter significantly increases your dog or cat’s risk of breast cancer (mammary adenocarcinoma). Spaying before the first heat cycle ensures that her risk of breast cancer is near 0%. After the first heat cycle the risk climbs to 7%, and after the second heat cycle the risk climbs to 25%.

Fact: The female reproductive tract is only active for about 3 weeks of the year, so the rest of the time her personality reflects what her personality would be like when she is spayed.

Fact: Pyometra is a life threatening condition that occurs when the intact reproductive system becomes infected. This disease progresses rapidly and can result in death in less than 24 hours after the first symptoms appear. Spaying prevents pyometra.

3. Myth: I don’t want my male dog to feel like less of a ‘male’.

Fact: Dogs do not have a sexual identity like people do. His basic personality will not change. He will not have emotional or psychological damage from being neutered. Neutered dogs are just as outgoing, friendly, and social as intact male dogs. Some personality traits do change however – these include the need for urine marking, roaming, aggressiveness towards other dogs, and mounting behaviours.

Fact: Intact males are at much higher risk of prostatic disease such as benign prostatic hyperplasia which can lead to difficulty urinating or defecating and prostate infections. Neutering reduces the risk of developing these conditions.

Fact: Intact males are at risk of developing testicular cancer.

4. Myth: I can easily sell or find homes for all puppies and kittens.

Fact: Our shelters are overflowing with unwanted puppies and kittens. One of four shelter dogs is actually a purebred. If you can find homes for the puppies

or kittens from your litter then there will be that many fewer homes available for animals at the humane society.

Fact: Even though Fluffy is the best dog (or cat) in the world, the puppies (or kittens) will not be exactly like Fluffy. There are many gorgeous, smart, funny, sweet dogs and cats looking for homes, and sadly many of them die from homelessness.

5. Myth: Spaying and neutering is ridiculously expensive.

Fact: Spaying and neutering costs much less than any other surgical procedure. The cost of a spay or neuter covers medications to premedicate, anesthetize, as well as provide pain control. It also covers extensive monitoring of blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate, temperature and depth of anesthesia. Finally, we use top quality suture material to ensure maximum safety and best healing. This is done to ensure that your pet is safe under anesthesia – skimping on any of these things puts your pet’s health at risk.

Fact: Emergency C-sections, a pyometra surgery, or the removal of a cancerous testicle etc., are much more complicated than a simple spay or neuter. They are procedures that are more strenuous for the animal to undergo, as well as being more costly procedures.

Young dogs and cats are healthy and are ideal candidates for surgery.

Chet & Jamie Jans Registered Simmental Breeders

Ryan Copithorne of Cows in Control Marketing Group says farmers in drier areas have scaled back expansion plans over feed supply concerns.

Depending on the severity of the dryness, Brian Perillat of Canfax says there could be a slight decrease in breeding stock numbers.

Perillat says some breeders may import feed corn or by-products from the United States to maintain herd size.

Dry conditions in parts of Alberta and Saskatchewan will delay farmers’ plans to expand Canada’s cattle herd by at least a year.

Canfax manager Brian Perillat says as dry conditions persist, grain crops may be reduced. A domino effect could be created.

“It (could) will increase feed costs in western Canada relative to the U.S, and this could result in a significant number of feeder cattle to the U.S.,” Perillat says .

Pastures are fading and hay prices are also high.

Some ranchers have tried moving their cattle to pastures with better moisture conditions, but others have managed the situation through culling.

“They might have had a few more heifers out to breed, they might have pulled them off grass. If they

had any stocker cattle, yearlings, they’ve gone to market,” Perillat says.

Ryan Copithorne, owner of Cows in Control Marketing Group, hears many farmers in drier areas who had ambitions of growing their herd have been scaling back over their feed supply concerns. He says industry was on the cusp of seeing some growth in the breeding herd, and the current dry conditions will probably stagnate that.

Perillat doesn’t anticipate cattle numbers contracting significantly, although depending on the severity of the dryness, there could be a slight decrease in breeding stock numbers.

“I think most guys are banking on finding feed sources to maintain the cow herd,” Perillat says. “The calf prices are high enough that they can pay up for higher value feed. [But] I won’t say for sure that we won’t contract; there may be a small contraction.”

He notes some operators are considering importing feed corn or corn by-products from the United States in order to maintain their herd sizes. Not much has come in, though, given high corn prices.

“Up until now, it’s been uneconomic to import corn,” Copithorne adds. If dryness in Canada severely impacts domestic barley, corn could potentially become a necessity: “There just won’t be enough barley to be found.”

Perillat agrees. “I don’t see much relief in barley prices from a western Canadian standpoint,” Perillat says.

He also anticipates a fair amount of movement of hay this year, with Manitoba hay being trucked to dry areas of southeast Saskatchewan, and western Saskatchewan hay to Alberta. Depending on the silage situation, some Manitoba hay might even wind up in Alberta.

By 2016, however, Canadian cattle numbers could finally be on the rise.

“The market signals are there for expansion. Prices are still holding very strong and under normal circumstances, we would be considering an expansion,” Perillat says. “This looks like more of a delay than a cancelling of expansion. It’ll come, but it’ll have to wait another year, assuming the weather cooperates.”

Case 19 — Canada’s first to be born after the “enhanced” federal feed ban took effect in 2007 — didn’t affect Canada’s status as a “controlled risk” country

for BSE but posed a setback in its efforts to level up to “negligible risk.”

By OIE standards, a country’s youngest case of BSE must have been born 11 years before “negligible risk” status can be considered. — AGCanada.com Network 10644 Spring Mountain - Composite

Federal officials tracing out the herdmates of Canada’s 19th domestic case of BSE expect to have their final report on the case ready in late fall.

Confirmed Feb. 11 as Canada’s first domestic case of the brain-wasting bovine disease since 2011, Case 19 was born in 2009 on the same northern Alberta farm as Case 17, a cow born in 2004 and confirmed with BSE in 2010.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s on-farm and feed investigations into Case 19 are now “complete from an information-gathering perspective,” the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association said in a statement Monday.

The CFIA has previously estimated Case 19’s birth cohort — animals born on the same farm between March 2008 and March 2010 — includes an estimated 750 animals. The feed cohort is expected to be far larger, including any surviving cattle fed on the farm in between Cases 17 and 19.

Just over 70 per cent of the birth cohort animals have been identified to date — and of that 70 per cent, about 14 per cent of those have been traced to live animals, the CCA said.

The CFIA and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada are still working with trading partners who haven’t yet lifted temporary restrictions put in place when Case 19 was announced, the CCA said.

CFIA, the association said, has “actively engaged these markets” — such as South Korea, Taiwan, Indo-

By Owen Roberts May/June AgriSuccess Some farm kids learn about management and construction by having their own calf and erecting a hutch for it. Not Scott Kramer.

By the time he was 16, this young entrepreneur from Rutherford, Ont., had his eye on land, renting six acres of cucumbers from his parents on their farmstead and seeing the crop through all aspects of production.

And at a time when most others his age were fixated

And at a time when most others his age were fixated on getting a driver’s licence, he was working with scientists at Ridgetown College to design and build a unique soil drill for corn borer studies. on getting a driver’s licence, he was working with scientists at Ridgetown College to design and build a unique soil drill for corn borer studies.

He had his eye on the future then, and has never lost focus.

“I say you should always look into every opportunity, even if you only ever actually do a few,” he says. “You learn something each time you do the research.”

Farm growth Scott’s now twice as old as he was during his cucumber patch days. And a lot has changed.

For example, over that time, his holdings and that of the five family members he farms with under the umbrella of Kramer Farms have expanded to 2,750 acres (Scott owns 500 acres and rents another 175 acres).

They grow soybeans, corn and wheat on heavy clay soil in the Dawn-Euphemia township area, about 100 kilometres southwest of London.

Cattle have replaced cucumbers. Since 2005 Scott has been operating a feedlot on his farm, finishing about 300 Black Angus beef cattle he brings in mainly from Alberta. It was all part of the big plan to become a full-time farmer.

And these days, acreage at Kramer Farms isn’t the only thing growing. Scott and his wife Hedy are raising four children age seven and under – Aydan, Jouke, Thysje and Evelien. And they’re expecting another

child in the summer.

Sound management With such a full house, the Kramers are keeping a close eye on management of all kinds, including their money.

“Financial management is becoming a bigger part of primary agriculture,” says Scott. “Margins are tight and the capital costs are huge. A successful operation will know their figures and be able to plan for production and market risks. You must have a good relationship with your accountant and lender.”

Scott would like to expand the operation at some point in the future. “For now, we’ll watch what land values and interest rates do over the next year or two, then make a decision,” he says. “At this time, we’re just going to keep on doing what we’re doing.”

And what they’re doing is enjoying farming while adopting sound management approaches. For example, the Kramers approach labour and equipment as a family, while retaining autonomy over their land. Hedy, who helps with group purchasing, says this arrangement has worked well.

“While each individual owns their own land base, we are able to share on many levels and buy inputs as a buying group,” she says.

the soil structure was amazing,” he says. “I couldn’t see how iron would make it better, so I just sprayed it and lightly vertical tilled it to help manage the residue.”

The result in that field? The no-tilled beans he’s put in it the past two years have been his best yielding beans, both years.

Scott’s love of soil is the stuff of family legend. Back in 2003, when he and Hedy were dating, he showed up at her door on her birthday with a jar of soil from the first 120 acres he bought. The sale closed that day, and he thought it was the perfect birthday gift.

“I called it a ‘jar of debt,’” he recalls laughingly.

But just over a decade later, it’s turned into a jar of gold.

Equipment modifications The Kramers are also continually refining their production techniques. Scott is an avid and successful machinery modifier and after developing the soil drill at Ridgetown, he and his father Ernie went on to design and fabricate a three-point hitch-mounted sprayer, a 750-bushel grain buggy and a straw bedding blower to distribute straw evenly into the feedlot.

The Kramers have also made many other equipment modifications to suit their operation, including 15-inch unit planters with dry fertilizer capabilities.

These are unavailable commercially and so far, the Kramers have built three: a 30-foot and two 40-foot units.

And while they embrace technology, they also give a nod to the past, particularly in the way they manage soil. “Our philosophy for field crops is never put any iron below the seed. Never till deeper than what you will plant,” says Scott.

For the love of soil Instead, the Kramers improve their soil with minimum till crop rotation, manure applications and cover crops. Case in point: a 50-acre rented field they recently started farming that was aBull hay field 3rd Annual Saleas long as anyone could remember.

People suggested he deep-rip or plow the hay down, and work to get it flat. But Scott had different ideas.

“We contribute to this movement, and make people conscious of products in the local market – and the benefits of consuming these products in terms of taste and the economy.”

Robert Bourgeois, owner of Verger Belliveau Orchard near the New Brunswick-Nova Scotia border, is a founding member of Really Local Harvest. He says the cooperative started when interest in where food comes from was reaching a peak.

“Everybody was looking for more local products so the timing was perfect to do it,” he says, adding it’s a global trend with u-picks and value-added products all doing better.

But, D’Astous points out, there’s more to the financial success of the local food movement than forming a co-operative.

Really Local Harvest invested in promotion, which was a turning point for the group.

The co-operative tapped into the former Canadian Agricultural Adaptation Program and hired staff to do promotion. They saw such an increase in business that they agreed to continue to keep an employee even after the funding ended.

Farmers realized they needed to mobilize the co-operative to promote their local food. “It’s expensive,” D’Astous says. “This way, they share resources to promote the Really Local Harvest brand.”

West coast When Wylie Bystedt moved from Vancouver to the rural community of Quesnel, B.C., and began operating Coyote Acres Ranch, she had her sights set on establishing a large farm and began with 10 acres for chickens and sheep. She soon bought another 640 acres and leased a neighbouring 600-acre property for a 75 cowcalf herd.

Her original business plan didn’t include selling to the local community, but when neighbours started asking if they could buy meat directly from her she recognized there was a local need. She adjusted her business plan to seize the opportunity.

She rightsized her farm for the local market. With 20 acres, she specializes in what she calls the five food r0011001461

NEW DATE!

By Trudy Kelly Forsythe Talk of expanding local markets has been around for years. Finding a way to turn that talk into dollars, however, can be a challenge.

It seems timing has as much to do with success as do business flexibility and agility with business plans.

East coast Really Local Harvest is a co-operative in Moncton, N.B., that started in 2000 with seven farm members.

Today, 30 members market a variety of products including meat, fruits and vegetables, eggs, cheese and wine. The co-operative is mandated to promote its members and their locally grown products: there’s a farmers market, a farm-to-cafeteria program that serves 25 of the region’s schools and a new weekly food basket service.

Executive director Mathieu D’Astous says that in Atlantic Canada, the local food movement took several years to catch on. Really Local Harvest just helped – and continues to help – nurture its growth.

“In 2000, 2005, even 2010, the local movement was something just coming out of the woodwork,” D’Astous says.

products like jerky and sausages.”

Right now the market is best for pork and lamb. “We sell as much as we can produce, so we are looking at building up livestock and finding more areas to sell into.”

Keys to success To determine demand, Bystedt looks ahead at market opportunities for lamb such as holidays, special events like 4-H sales, market season and niche markets like intact males for the ethnic market.

“It’s why we call ourselves a niche producer,” she says. Critical to success, she says, is business agility.

She also recommends finding opportunities to help other local companies.

Bystedt sells lamb, and some chicken, to a producer of raw pet food, and she works with local restaurants when they have catering jobs and special events.

Most of her sales are by the cut, like roasts and steaks, and value-added products, like sausages, pepperoni, bacon and jerky, which garner better prices.

She only sells whole animals, butchered or live, opting not to sell sides of meat.

“Other farms do sides,” she says.

Bystedt, Bourgeois and D’Astous all agree that timing and flexibility are keys to success in local markets. As Bourgeois points out, farmers who hope to capitalize on the interest in local food can’t afford to lose their business mindset.

groups: beef, pork, lamb, chicken and llama. Herd and flock sizes vary depending on market conditions, to which she can easily respond.

“We have some cows, about a dozen, but we don’t focus on that now because beef prices are high and you can get more at auction than locally,” she says.

Several other producers have started raising beef so she focuses elsewhere.

30 The Northern Horizon, July 17, 2015

By Owen Roberts Ontario’s pork sector is reporting positive results from a new branding campaign that seizes on the popularity of local food grown by local farmers.

The point-of-purchase campaign features a stylized check-mark symbol above the words Ontario Pork. Supporting collateral – shelf dividers, stickers for packaging, counter signage, label rolls and shelf danglers - describe the product as “nutritious, delicious and farm-fresh.”

The campaign was launched last year with 12 retailers, and is now at almost 60 users – retailers, as well as food service distributors, restaurants and farmers who sell at farm gate.

A recent survey commissioned by Foodland Ontario showed 35 per cent of survey participants recognized the Ontario Pork check-mark symbol.

New promotion proving positive for pork’s profile FARM CREDIT CANADA JULY 3, 2015

The producers’ organization is now gathering specific growth figures. Kevin Mosser, Ontario Pork retail and food service marketing specialist, says two retailers recently reported 20 per cent sales increases in the last quarter.

He attributes the sales increase to several factors.

“The rising price of beef has created the opportunity for consumers to take a closer look at incorporating pork into their meals more often,” he says. “This factor, combined with the recent interest of shoppers and diners to support the local economy, presents an opportunity to promote the efforts of Ontario farmers and help connect partners along the supply chain.”

Mosser says Ontario pork’s appeal to consumers starts with the farmers themselves. In Ontario, 98 per cent of hog farms are family owned and operated.

“They play a very active role in the community and support many local charities including the Ontario Association of Food Banks and the Heart and Stroke Foundation,” he says.

Mosser says the new check-mark campaign allows retail and foodservice partners to promote and support locally raised pork. Also, it serves as a tool for consumers who are looking for local pork.

“It can understandably be daunting at the grocery store for consumers to know where the pork they are buying is from,” he says. “Consumers can now feel comfortable knowing that products carrying the Ontario pork label have been raised by a local farmer.”

Restaurants have been using the logo on their websites and menus, and there are some additional materials currently in development for them.

John Deere BEEFS up utility tractor performance LATHE, Kansas (June 3, 2015) – Like a boxer fighting above his weight class, the new four-cylinder 5E and 5ML Series Tractors from John Deere pack a lot of heavy-duty power and versatility for utility tractors of their size.

"We've taken our popular, marketproven 5 Series Utility Tractor lineup and added new models that make it even easier to perform more jobs on the property or around the farm, ranch or orchard," says Brad Aldridge, 5 Series product marketing manager for John Deere.

"These versatile 5E and 5ML Tractors combine durability with value and are the perfect choice for many types of customers."

5E Series Tractors Whatever the chore, the new four-cylinder 5Es feature heavy-duty frames, axles, engines and transmission to deliver greater performance and value. Available in 85 and 100 engine horsepower, the 5085E and 5100E are powered by John Deere PowerTech™ 4045 diesel engines that meet Final Tier Four emission standards. This engine gives tractors the muscle to lift more than 3,200 pounds rear-lift capacity and more than 3,500 pounds at full front loader height.

The durable 24/12 PowrReverser™ transmission in these machines increases top transport speed by one-third, so operators can do more in less time. Operators can shift from low to high at the touch of a button, without even needing to clutch. The economy PTO, standard on all 5E four-cylinder transmissions, lets operators reduce engine rpm to 1,700,

which can lower fuel consumption by as much as 20 percent.

"Although performance is the bottom line, we also made a number of ergonomic improvements to promote easier, smoother operation," Aldridge adds.

"Other design features make the 5E easier to maintain, which maximizes uptime."

Because most operators use loaders with these utility tractors, visibility is critical to both ease of operation and efficiency. The new sloping hood and raised operator platform on cab models offer 3.6 feet of extra visibility in front of the tractor. Better sight lines mean higher operator efficiency and comfort when performing many repetitive loader tasks.

Design changes to the control pod and instrument panel provide easier monitoring and operating control. The operator has more information available on a single screen than ever, including warning lights, ground speed, PTO speed, PTO target bar, PowrReverser position, hour meter, hi/lo indicator and diagnostic codes. Routine maintenance is made easy with a new slide-out condenser, radiator screen, tilting charge air cooler and slideout oil cooler.

As an added bonus, customers can save money on the purchase price of these new 5E models with a factory-installed loader prep package that matches perfectly with the new H240 Loaders.

"Our engineers designed the 5E Series Utility Tractors with the operator in mind – from the standard telescoping draft links to the convenient new cup holder," Aldridge said. "This innovative series

provides the economy and convenience of a utility tractor, along with the power, versatility and operator comfort they would expect to find only on a larger model."

Low-Profile 5ML Tractors Along with the new 5Es, John Deere is bringing out the new 5ML Tractors designed for working in low clearance and tight spaces such as poultry barns and orchards.

"The 5ML Tractors are available in two models, the 100 engine horsepower 5100ML and 115 horsepower 5115ML," says Ruben Peña, senior marketing representative, John Deere Augusta. "These low-profile M machines feature an open operator station, low-profile seat and ROPS, and sloping hood for improved visibility when operating under trees and in low buildings."

The 5ML models come standard with rugged, Final Tier 4 compliant John Deere PowerTech engines that automatically perform regeneration for maximum uptime and offer significant cost of ownership advantages over competitive models.

The 5ML comes with a mechanical hitch and two transmission options: the 16F/16R or 32F/16R PowrReverser for easy, clutch-free forward and reverse operations. They are designed with plenty of hydraulic power to handle a wide variety of implements and excellent drawbar visibility for ease of operation.

Other features include a new backlit LCD instrument panel that makes monitoring tractor performance easier, even in bright conditions, two rear work lights, and new easier-to-access charge air engine cooler and hydraulic oil cooler packages. Factory-installed options include fuel tank guards and an SCV oil spillage collection system.

Salford Group’s Hydraulic Packages win prestigious Innovation Award at Canada’s Farm Progress Show July 9, 2015 (Salford, ON) – Salford Group Inc., a leading global manufacturer of tillage, seeding and fertilizer application equipment, received a prestigious Innovation Award last month at Canada’s Farm Progress Show (CFPS).

The hydraulically controlled FlexFinish™ harrow system and Switchblade™ shank kits earned Sterling category honors.

This year, out of hundreds of exhibitors, the CFPS Innovations Committee recognized six special achievements in agriculture innovation, including the Salford hydraulic packages. Brad Baker, Product Manager of the Independent Series product line at Salford,

said the hydraulic packages give Salford equipment the ability to adapt to field conditions on the fly, which is a major advancement in tillage equipment technology.

“We saw how popular the hydraulically controlled Switchblade shank kits were and thought if we applied the same technology to the harrow package, we could really make life easier for the farmer,” Baker said. “Now the operator doesn’t have to leave the cab to do manual adjustments as the machine works through the field. We see this as a major advancement in the realm of field adaptive technology, one that can help farmers maximize productivity across

their entire operation.”

Hydraulic controls on the FlexFinish harrow system allow the operator to change the pitch of the tines from high aggression to low aggression and every setting in between. With a more aggressive pitch, the farmer can achieve better surface leveling capabilities, or with lower pitch can allow more residue to pass through the machine.

Operators can hydraulically raise or lower rolling baskets to move them up and out of the way in high moisture situations or to leave some stubble standing to reduce erosion. Spring tension can also be increased on the basket arms to create more down pressure in

order to break down clods and produce a more even field finish.

The Switchblade hydraulic trip shanks feature adjustable trip pressure up to 1300 lb., making them an ideal attachment for chisel ripping. Shanks can be raised or lowered hydraulically to quickly convert the machine from applicator or coulter chisel to a vertical tillage machine.

Switchblade shanks can penetrate between 4-8 inches and can carry either a fertilizer application or tillage shank.

Fertilizer application shanks have an industry standard side mount but Salford that fits most NH3 slot knives.

New wheat research partnership AGRI-NEWS JULY 13, 2015

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC), CANTERRA SEEDS, and the Alberta Wheat Commission (AWC) have announced a partnership aimed at combining the strengths of producers, along with the public and private sectors, to create improved Canada Prairie Spring Red (CPSR) wheat varieties for farmers.

With a total contribution of $3.4 million over five this public/private/producer partnership will strengthen the Canada Prairie Spring Red (CPSR) breeding program at Lethbridge Research Centre.

“Our goal is to bring products to market that will help grow farmers’ profitability and competitive edge,” said Kent Erickson, chairman, AWC. “Providing the producer perspective on agronomic characteristics will ensure that wheat varieties coming from the LRC program meet the needs of growers.”

AWC will receive a share of royalties on new varieties resulting from the program to be used for future CPSR research and development.

CANTERRA SEEDS will provide additional technical and field-testing capacity for the CPSR material from AAFC Lethbridge, and increased funding and support for the program as a whole.

In addition to a financial contribution and signifi-

cant field-testing capacity, CANTERRA SEEDS will also provide links to the entire value chain, a deeper understanding of end-user requirements and broad experience in seed production and commercialization. In exchange, CANTERRA SEEDS will receive the first right of refusal on a stream of future CPSR varieties from the program, a class of wheat with an unrealized potential in evolving food markets – particularly in Asia.

Anything is possible at Yukon grain farm

By Trish Henderson May/June AgriSuccess “There are strange things done in the midnight sun by the men who moil for gold,” wrote Robert Service in his 1907 poem set in the Yukon Territory, The Cremation of Sam McGee. The gold rush is long over, but Yukon residents remain resourceful and innovative. Steve and Bonnie MacKenzie-Grieve are no exception.

Sixteen years ago, the couple left southern Alberta in order to “slow down.” After purchasing bare land 25 kilometres north of Whitehorse, where the Yukon River meets Lake Laberge, they started Yukon Grain Farm as a hobby. Today, it’s a thriving business.

Although they weren’t born farmers, the MacKenzie- Grieves had entrepreneurial experience in aquaculture and spray foam insulation services.

They heard opportunity knocking in the Yukon.

“We started growing barley and oats, then experimented with potatoes because I had contacts in the potato business,” Steve says. “A friend of a friend worked at Extra Foods in Whitehorse, so I asked him how many potatoes they sold. The store’s response was great – they almost pushed us into growing for them.

“We got to the point where we were filling the local potato market, then we went into carrots. Cooler temperatures here mean carrots are sweeter, and there are no native pests. We took some to the store, and customers wanted more. The planting and cultivating equipment for carrots also works for beets and cabbage, so now we’re experimenting with

other cool-weather vegetables.”

Despite a short growing season and a cold, dry climate, the enterprise became the first commercial vegetable operation in the Yukon, and is now one of the largest farms in the area. Yukon Grain Farm annually grows 100 to 200 acres of oats and barley, 20 acres of potatoes, 3.5 acres of carrots, 1.5 acres of beets, and one acre of cabbage; all under irrigation.

Feed grains are milled on-farm then packaged into 25-kilogram bags. The local livestock and poultry producers who buy them would otherwise rely on feed grains from Alberta or British Columbia.

Vegetable crops are sold direct to retail, supplying Loblaws stores in White-

horse with potatoes 10 months of the year and carrots three months of the year. Produce is washed and bagged onfarm then delivered to retailers: daily in the summer, three days a week in the winter. Sometimes Steve is tasked with stocking his product on store shelves, an extra job he looks forward to because it offers direct contact with customers.

“The biggest reward is producing what consumers enjoy,” he says.

“There’s a big disconnect between producers and consumers in Canada, but in the Yukon people know where their vegetables are coming from when they buy ours.”

Although they have to truck fertilizer, fuel, equipment and parts for hundreds of miles, the remoteness of the Yukon still offers opportunities for agriculture.

“We have a cost advantage over vegetables and feed brought in from other provinces,” Steve says. “And, our produce is higher quality than vegetables hauled across the country.”

He’s surprised there aren’t more small-scale producers teaming up with local grocery stores.

“We’re lucky to have an isolated market, but there are lots of other areas in Canada that are off the beaten path. A customer is a customer, no matter where Continued on 48

Salford Group rolls out new air carts and tillage models

Butler ‘s

creates more aggressive operation while maintaining the benefits of Salford’s patented true vertical tillage design.

The I-2200 is one of Salford’s more aggressive true vertical tillage designs, making it a highly formidable and productive piece of machinery. It combines the Coil-Tech Coulter II 1 5/8” independent blade mounting system of the I-2100 with the five-inch spacing of the I-1200.

This unique combination allows for excellent seed bed preparation, thorough residue sizing, and effective mechanical weed control. It also features 60 percent more down pressure than the Salford Coil Tech I and deeper penetration into tough ground conditions.

The I-4200 is more aggressive yet, combining concave blades and wavy coulters to achieve the residue mixing capabilities of the I-4100 with the field finish characteristics of an I-1200 or I-2200 (five-inch spaced models). The front two rows of the machine utilize the same rubber cushion concave blade coulters and spacing found on the I-4100.

The I-4200 is compatible with all Salford seeding and fertilizer application attachments, including Switchblade™ hydraulic shanks. This allows multiple operations to be combined into one pass, therefore multiplying the productivity factor of the machine.

“The introduction of these two new pieces of equipment is more evidence of Salford delivering on its promise of building equipment for soil health,” said Salford National Sales Manager (Canada) Jim Boak. “What we mean by soil health is not only getting better yields, but also helping to preserve the soil for the long term and helping our customers get a greater return, not only on their equipment investment, but on preserving the family farm for future generations.”

July 2, 2015 (Salford, ON) – Salford Group continues to raise the bar in the seeding and tillage equipment sectors with the introduction of several new products this summer. The global agriculture equipment manufacturer has rolled out a giant air cart, the AC4000L dry/liquid hybrid quad tank, and two new additions to its Independent Series line of tillage equipment, the vertical tillage I-2200 and a hybrid tillage specialist, the I-4200.

The AC4000 is the company’s largest implement to date in the large-scale air cart class. The new four-tank offering is available in an all-dry 945 bushel configuration, as well as a hybrid dry/liquid configuration to match the real needs of large acreage operations. Known as the AC4000L, the dry/liquid hybrid features 550 bushels of dry capacity across three tanks, along with a massive 4000 gallon liquid tank.

“We’ve had a lot of requests from customers to incorporate liquid fertilizer into our carts. Larger acreages really tighten the seeding window. This leads to producers towing three implements at once, one for seeding, a second for dry product and a third for liquid. These trains can reach over 130 feet long,” said Brad Baker, Product Manager for Salford’s Seeding and Independent Series equipment lines. “The combined machines are high capacity, but cumbersome to operate and potentially dangerous to transport and maneuver. We took producer feedback and engineered the AC4000L to carry liquid and dry product for a safer machine that is simpler to operate.”

Salford has introduced new offerings to its signature tillage lineup, the Independent Series. The I-2200 and I-4200 each mark a bold leap forward in Salford frame technology that allows these new models to carry Salford’s latest blade mounts on 5-inch spacing. The tighter blade spacing

THE BIG BEND Blueberry Creek Steven Dolhan

Reprinted from ‘The Big Bend’ with permission of Mrs. Arletta Hampton, a remaining member of the Historical Society of Blueberry Mountain Alberta.

Family

Steven Dolhan, who was of Romanian descent, moved to the Blueberry Creek area from Smoky Lake on May 4, 1930, in search of homestead land.

His wife, Mary Dolhan, who was of Austrian descent, and five of their six children, Mike, Sophie, George, Charles, and Verna joined him in the fall of 1930. Later their youngest daughter Katherine was born in Yellow Creek. The move from Smoky Lake was all made by horse and buggy. A mile from their destination they ran out of bread to feed their family.

Not knowing that they only had one more mile to go, they stopped and unloaded their wood stove to bake bread.

Mr. and Mrs. Steven Dolhan farmed and cleared land up until Steven’s sudden death on October 14, 1947.

Mary was widowed, with six children until her death on September 22, 1979.

Mike, the oldest of the Steven Dolhan family, married Mary Bilawchuk, and they, with their family of two, farmed in Yellow Creek until May 23, 1963.

Mary Dolhan Jr. moved to Spirit River to live, and later moved to Grande Prairie.

Sophie married William Melenchuk in Smoky Lake and they moved to Yellow Creek in 1930, where they farmed until 1975. They are now retired and live in Spirit River.

George helped the family move to Yellow Creek, then later returned to Smoky Lake the latter part of 1936. He married Wasylina Starchuk in 1937 and brought her to homestead in Yellow Creek. They had seven children: five sons, Tom, David, Dan, Clifford, and Robert, and two daughters, Louise and Theresa.

Two of their sons, David and Dan are still farming in the area. David has 3 children, Dan has 4. The rest of the family are scattered around - Tom and his wife in Winnipeg, Manitoba with 4 children. Louise is Mrs.

Lyle Anderson and lives at St. Paul. They have one child. Clifford, his wife and two children live in Spirit River. Robert and his wife and two children live at Sechelt, B.C. and Theresa and her husband Tery Lund, have one child and they live in Calgary.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Dolhan farmed in Yellow Creek until 1959, then moved to land they bought near Spirit River. They are now retired and live in Spirit River town.

Verna married Harry Andrichiw, and they, with their family of three children farmed in the Blueberry Creek area until 1950, when they sold their land and moved to Buffalo Lakes, Alberta.

Katherine married William Sarabin and they are farming the “Steven Dolhan Homestead”.

The Dolhan family remembered the 1930’s as a very hard decade, with lots of bush to clear, no roads, no water, no schools. During the winter of 1930 they experienced no snow until March 1931, when one inch blanketed the ground.

The first school was built in Ksituan, the second one in Blueberry Creek, with Yellow Creek being the third school built in the area.

They recall that somewhere between 1930 and 1940, Wheat was worth 25¢ a bushel, Oats 7¢ a bushel, Eggs 5¢ a dozen, and Butter 10¢ a pound.

Dan Dolhan is the third eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. George Dolhan. He was born in their home at Blueberry Creek and attended school at Blueberry Creek.

On November 22, 1963, he married Lorraine Shmyr of Bellow, Alberta. They worked and lived in the town of Spirit River for two and a half years.

Little Britches Compete Under the Summer Sun Rio Grande, AB – Enjoying the best of Northern Alberta rodeo weather conditions, 118 entrants showed their best for an enthusiastic crowd of parents, relatives and spectators in the Little Britches events at this year’s Rio Grande Rodeo held Friday, July 3rd.

17 riders, in two age classes, started off the rodeo in the Break-Away Roping event with Sierra Loewen having the best time in the 11 – 13 age group and Dexter Keith taking the 14 – 16 age group.

After a quick reset in the infield, spectators watched 36 riders in all four age groups match speed with horsemanship in the Barrel Racing event. Coming in with the best times in their divisions, Brinnly Thomson had the best time in the 7 and under event, Emma Busson in the 8 – 10’s, Kali Atkings in the 11- 13 age group and Shinelle Cooper topping the 14 – 16 year old division.

The Barrel Racing event was followed by the Pole Bending Event; a test of horsemanship, speed and communication between horse and rider.

Mason Hamilton topped his 6 other competitors in the 7 and under division, Emalayne McGladdery had the best time against 7 other riders in the 8 – 10 age group, Cassidy Corr had the best time of 9 others in the 11 – 13 division and Marie Ochran closed out the event with a win over 8 others in the 14 – 16 age group.

A perennial favourite of spectators, Goat Tying, closed out the Little Britches event.

Family, friends and spectators alike stood, cheered on and encouraged the 31 entrants in a test of riding and dismounting skill, practise, coordination and luck. Ali Hamilton showed she could snag the flag better than her 4 other opponents in the 7 and under division while Carson Johnson was the quickest of 5 in the 8 – 10 year old division. Cassidy Corr, a double winner in this year’s rodeo, followed up her win in the Pole Bending event by showing her prowess in the 11 – 13 division, besting 13 others trying their best to take down and tie a couple of very uncooperative goats. Another double event winner, Dexter Keith, took home his second title of the day by posting an impressive time in the 14 – 16 year old division, taking top spot over 6 others. r0011072440

On the open road

Mourning those we’ve lost Being Belt Drive Betty means I get to know, ride with and care for a lot of people.

It also means that often times when tragedy strikes, I have to say goodbye to someone I loved and cared about.

Today I, along with my brothers and sisters from CAV mourn the passing of Darren “Willy” Williams.

He and 7 of his brothers were riding in Picton County Ontario when a Mazda Miata crossed the centre line and centre punched three of the 8 bikes, 2 riders were killed instantly and one is in critical condition.

Darren was one of the riders who was killed, the other rider who died, his name has not yet been released and neither has the name of the person in ICU. Next of kin need to be notified.

Here is what is in the news about the crash: http://www.intelligencer.ca/2015/06/21/fatalmotor-vehicle-collision-in-prince-edwardcounty Tracey, Darren’s wife and Alisha and Michael, his children are in shock needless to say.

Darren had just become a grandpa for his first time and he so loved his little man Aiden.

He only got enjoy being a grandpa for about 11 months.

Darren was the kind of friend you could call out of the blue and he always made time for you. I had first met him at the Wharf Rat Rally in Digby Nova Scotia in 2011.

I was blessed to spend some quality time with Darren in Greenwood NS and rode with him to Yarmouth in the driving down rain in 2013 on my Military Support Conga.

We had stopped into the 74th Crusaders clubhouse to say hi just as the rain started.

When we made it to Yarmouth, Willy and I shared some time with a couple of the young folks who helped fundraise for the Yarmouth Memorial.

The next morning, Joe and Willy took me to the memorial and then Joe and his wife Jo, Willy and I went to the farmer’s market in Yarmouth - it was so foggy that Willy couldn’t head back to Greenwood until mid afternoon.

It was a wonderful time, one that I will forever carry in my heart.

He had given me some very special veteran’s vest extenders, they were special before his life ended, but now they are just that much more special. I will always wear them with pride and remembrance.

My heart breaks for my CAV family and the families of those affected by this horrible crash.

Please lift a prayer for Willy’s family and friends....

As soon as we have information on the other rider who passed and the rider in ICU, I will let you know.

It’s father’s day today.

Look at that grumpy old man you call dad and hug him with all your might and remember to say I love you, with meaning and do it often because you never know when it will be your time to leave this

Anything is possible Continued from 40

you’re at. People want fresh, quality produce.

If you can supply local stores with as good or better product than commodity suppliers, at a relatively competitive price, there’s opportunity.”

To meet the requirements of their retail customers, Yukon Grain Farm became the first operation in the territory to implement CanadaGAP, a food safety certification program for companies producing, packing or storing fruits and vegetables on-farm.

While Steve says the record-keeping and audit requirements can be time-consuming and costly, he believes in the program.

“Putting myself in the shoes of the consumer, I would look for that (CanadaGAP certification).

It provides assurance that you’re getting a safe, quality product.”

Relationships with local grocery store staff are also key, according to Steve.

“We deal with Loblaws’ head office, but local store staff need to believe in what you’re doing. They decide who gets the prime shelf space.”

More than producers Steve understands that many farmers may not want to tackle the added responsibility of marketing, processing and packaging – on top of the already taxing work of growing crops or raising livestock – but maintains these additional duties mean more control, and ultimately a higher chance of success.

“It can take over your life for a while, but once you have enough experience you become a better salesman and better producer.”

It took about seven years for the

MacKenzie-Grieves to reach this level of comfort with their operation.

“You have to stick with it, be flexible, respond to consumers and have good judgment. And I don’t do it alone,” Steve admits. “Bonnie is very involved, and we have good staff.”

Overcoming challenges They’ve always hired locally and now have three full-time and six seasonal employees.

“At first it was hard to attract workers.

But the more established we become, the better we do and the better we can pay. The more you pay, the better your help. It’s worth it in the end – people are happy to be here, working close to home.

“With no farm infrastructure here, you’re on your own to keep equipment running,” Steve says. “You always want a back-up plan in case of breakdown.

We keep two pieces of main equipment, like harvesters and combines, and rely on our neighbours – people in the Yukon are very resourceful.”

Relationships within the community are important in more ways than one.

Yukon Grain Farm gives back to the community by participating in a vegetable hamper fundraiser, where local students sell boxes of their produce and the schools keep half of all proceeds.

Trying new ideas has paid off for Steve and Bonnie MacKenzie-Grieve.

They’ve built a successful business in an unlikely location. At the same time, they’re enhancing the quality of life for their fellow Yukon residents by creating local jobs and increasing the availability of fresh vegetables.

They’re proof that resourcefulness and innovation can go a long way.

27 Important Lessons from Older farmers

If you get to thinkin’ you’re a person of some influence, try orderin’ somebody else’s dog around.

retired Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada plant breeder oversaw the transition of rapeseed into an edible oilseed crop.

Canola is Canada’s number one crop contributing more than $19 billion annually to the national economy.

Downey was upbeat about future canola research, saying he

wished he had another 20 years to see all of the new exciting things coming forward. However, he warned about the importance of countering misinformation while building public trust in scientific advances.

“One of the most effective and powerful tools at our disposal, gene transfer, lies largely idle due

to a misinformed public,” Downey says. “If we are to fully benefit from our current and future knowledge this battle must be won.”

A Saskatchewan farmer told delegates he believes plant breeders will continue to develop higher yielding canola varieties.

Maurice Delage farms 21,000 acres near Indian

Head, about 70 kilometres east of Regina. He predicts target yields of 70 to 80 bushels an acre will be achievable in 10 years.

International visitors to the conference hoping to see a blue sky and robust, flowering canola crops were disappointed. Thick smoke from forest fires in northern Saskatchewan

reduced visibility and the very dry spring and summer has hurt crops.

“It might not be the best year for plot tours, but on the other hand, they will have an opportunity to have a first-hand look at the kind of challenges we have on the Prairies when it comes to crop production,” Keller says.

$150,000 available to Participate in the NGTL Towerbirch Expansion Project Hearing The National Energy Board is looking for your input on the proposed Nova Gas Transmission Ltd. (NGTL) Towerbirch Expansion Project. NGTL filed an application seeking to construct and operate approximately 87 km of pipe and related facilities in northwest Alberta and northeast British Columbia. If you are a landowner, Aboriginal group, incorporated non-industry, not-for-profit organization or an individual who could be directly affected by this project, you can apply for funding.

The funding must be used to prepare for and participate in the NGTL Towerbirch Expansion Project hearing.

www.neb-one.gc.ca/pfp 1-800-899-1265 pfp.pafp@neb-one.gc.ca

The Participant Funding Program will be accepting funding applications now until to 60 days before the first day of the oral portion of the hearing (to be determined).

For more information on eligibility and how to apply for funding, visit www.neb-one.gc.ca/pfp.

By Neil Billinger Saskatoon is the hub of Canadian canola research which made it the ideal location to host the 14th International Rapeseed Congress.

The event is held every four years and has not been in Saskatoon since 1991. More than 900 people from 32 countries spent the week attending presentations and sharing research.

“About three-quarters of them are scientists working directly in the field or laboratory or managing science,” says Congress co-chair Wilf Keller. The remainder are government managers, industry representatives and regulatory officials.

The opening keynote address was delivered by 88-year-old Keith Downey, known as the Father of Canola. The

Farm

By Judie Steeves An early spring and record-breaking temperatures during what is normally the rainiest month of the year in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley have led to a cherry harvest that’s two to three weeks earlier than usual.

Instead of rain, this year June featured record high heat, which continued into July, the month harvest usually begins.

However, Sukhpaul Bal, president of the B.C. Cherry Association, says quality and quantity are good in a crop that has sized up well with good quantities of particularly flavourful, firm fruit.

The biggest difficulty has been finding workers ready to pluck the sweet red fruits two weeks earlier than normal - and growers changing their habits because the crop is so early.

He says continued extreme heat is a concern because it can cause the tree to go into survival mode, feeding the fruit second, so fruit quality can suffer.

Bal is a Kelowna farmer with 50 acres of cherries currently in production and 50 acres of later-maturing varieties he and his family planted this spring. As with many of the large growers, the family operates an on-site packing plant to ensure fruit is cooled down and packed immediately after picking to maintain fruit quality.

Pickers are out in the orchard at first light to harvest while it’s still cool, and finish around noon before the heat of the day at noon.

Hank Markgraf, grower services manager for the B.C. Tree Fruit Co-op, notes that along with the earlier ripening fruit, insect pests such as the new Spotted Wing Drosophila also appeared early, and there are concerns they could produce more generations

this season than usual.

To date, prices are not at their best because B.C. fruit moves into a market already established by earlier cherries from south of the border, and Washington State growers are harvesting a large crop this year.

Adequate water is another issue Markgraf worries about. In a valley that relies on irrigation to keep orchards alive, he advises growers to conserve water wherever possible.

Although sunburn isn’t much of a problem with the cherry crop, he says it could have a more serious impact on apples. He’s already noticing some sun scald damage on apples and pears.

Roughly 99 per cent of Canada’s sweet cherries are grown in the Okanagan Valley and is valued at $40 million a year.

Trees and dry conditions AGRI-NEWS JULY 13, 2015

An Alberta Agriculture and Forestry (AF) specialist says the recent dry conditions are having an effect on trees.

“Dry conditions definitely put a lot of pressure on trees,” says Toso Bozic, woodlot extension specialist, AF, Edmonton. “It’s an invitation for insect and disease problems, not just for this year, but for upcoming years as well.”

He says there are several insects to keep an eye out for. “Yellow-headed spruce sawfly has been a problem

the last couple of years, as have aphids. The other one is spider mites. This year ash trees have been especially impacted, as well as poplars.”

Monitoring is the key when it comes to insects, says Bozic. “From mid-May until October 1st, landowners should check their trees weekly to see what is going on. Monitoring also helps them keep on top of which trees may need watering under dry conditions, or may need help with other issues.”

If monitoring turns up insect, disease or any other issues contributing to tree weakening, Bozic recommends taking pictures to help identify the problem.

“Take photos of both the problem and the surround-

ing area to get the best idea of what is going on. Sending a picture is always better than trying to explain a problem over the phone. You can also tap on the branch with a white sheet of paper and take a picture of what falls onto it. And, only use insecticide/fungicide as a last resort to control problems with insects or diseases.”

For more information contact Toso Bozic at 780415-2681, or any local agricultural fieldman.
