Reopened beef plant a blessing for markets Rancher’s Beef will be sold to Vesta Holdings of Colorado

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Alberta beef producers are hoping the new owners of the former Rancher’s Beef processing plant in Balzac, Alta., will help strengthen and expand markets.

“This couldn’t come at a better time,” said Bryan Walton, chief executive officer of the Alberta Cattle Feeders Association.

Tyson Foods recently said it would no longer accept fed cattle from Canada at its plant in Pasco, Washington, because of uncertainty over country-of-origin labelling in the United States. It means fewer bidders for Canadian fed cattle, although Tyson said it would still accept foreign born cattle fed in the U.S. Rancher’s Beef, owned by Sunterra Farms, will be sold to Vesta Holdings, a Colorado investment company as of Nov. 1.

Deal worth $1.5 billion annually | Canadian meat sector expected to be big winner in deal

Canada and the European Union have inked a tentative trade deal that Canadian agricultural exporters say could be worth as much as $1.5 billion in annual sales.

Increased quotas and tariff elimination or phase-out over seven years offers unprecedented market access as long as commitments can be met to negotiate the end of existing EU technical barriers that have often thwarted theoretical quota access.

The meat sector expects to be the major beneficiary with projected sales opportunities of more than $1 billion — $600 million for hormone-

free beef and $400 million for pork — once the deal kicks in two years from now.

The canola industry expects a doubling of sales to $180 million for the European biodiesel industry once tariffs are eliminated. The pulse industry said there is potential for a dramatic increase in exports of pulse flour to the European market.

The grain industry also saw a silver lining, although direct grain exports will not be affected dramatically.

“I think for us it eliminates any chance of new tariffs or tariffs going up,” said Grain Growers of Canada president Stephen Vandervalk.

“But the big winner in this is hogs, pork and beef, and that means more sales to them of feed grain so that is

an opportunity for us.”

The self-perceived loser in the deal is the Canadian dairy industry, which will see potential imports of European high-end cheeses double to 30,000 tonnes.

Dairy Farmers of Canada president Wally Smith predicted that the deal will put small artisan cheese producers in Ontario and Quebec out of business because of competition from subsidized European product.

The result would be smaller markets for dairy farmers.

“This is unacceptable,” he said Oct. 17 after dairy leaders were briefed by the government on the details.

“This potential deal is a loss for Canadian dairy farmers and industry.”

The Canadian government, which has cultivated a strong relationship with Canada’s protected dairy industry, disagreed.

In Brussels Oct. 18 at the signing of the agreement-in-principle, prime minister Stephen Harper said Ottawa will compensate dairy farmers if there is any evidence of lost sales.

Details of how the compensation would work were not available, and federal politicians suggested compensation would likely not be necessary because growing domestic cheese demand would more than cover the additional 17,000 tonnes of imports when the deal kicks in, likely in 2015.

Reopened beef plant a blessing Company owner Rich Vesta predicts the facility could be open by next June, following $18 million worth of renovations, but he said it is not likely to function at full capacity of 800 head per day for some time. He did not disclose the selling price.

“We have a very disciplined approach to how we start this plant up, and we won’t be in full production for the better part of a year,” Vesta said.

The plant has been inactive since Sunterra bought it from the receiver at the end of 2007.

Vesta said the facility is state of the art with no changes needed in the receiving or slaughter areas, but he wants to renovate the fabrication floor.

“It is as food safe a plant as there is in North America, maybe more,” he said.

The plant will be called Harmony Beef, and the brand will emphasize Alberta fed beef.

The company plans to pursue niche markets and achieve organic and European Union certification.

“We don’t intend to be a commodity beef producer.”

The company will start by producing commodity beef to test the plant and then shift to niche products. There is no plan to buy cattle until the middle of the first quarter of next year.

The plant is also adding technology to recycle water.

Vesta said the company is looking to hire 275 to 325 people to work in the plant.

Vesta has 47 years of experience in the meat packing business, starting as a meat cutter at the age of 14.

“I’ve run plants from 250 head to 5,500 head a day,” he said.

The Rancher’s Beef plant was built

during a time when many groups wanted to construct processing plants to address the oversupply of cattle due to the lack of international markets after BSE was discovered in Canada. Few got off the ground, mostly due to lack of capital.

Rancher’s Beef raised $32 million from 47 producer investors, but survived for only 14 months.

Many Alberta cattle producers are already familiar with Vesta from when he was at Packerland Packing in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and later at JBS in Greeley, Colorado.

“He has got his feet on the ground,” Walton said.

“He is the real deal. Guys like this don’t come around every day that have had the experience and know how to make money and turnarounds at plants. He knows the business.”

Alberta Cattle Feeders chair Brent Chaffee said having another processor will benefit producers.

“Even if we are not directly selling cattle to him, if they are taking supply out of the market, that does drive up the bids a bit,” he said.

Alberta Beef Producers chair Doug Sawyer hopes the new plant will fill in markets not served by the province’s two major processors: Cargill at High River and JBS at Brooks.

He said the two large Americanowned plants have not aggressively pursued the export of Canadian beef offshore because they can source beef for those markets from their plants in the U.S. “Hopefully, they will be able to move into some different markets than we have been able to do with the two bigger plants,” said Sawyer.

Alta. announces poultry institute

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

AIRDRIE, Alta. — A new poultry institute has been established in Alberta to manufacture vaccines and provide diagnostic services for Western Canada.

Western Economic Diversification Canada announced a $2.6 million grant last week to buy equipment for the institute, which is based in Airdrie at an Alberta Agriculture facility.

Support has also come from the Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency.

The Institute for Applied Poultry Technologies will work with producers and the University of Alberta’s poultry research centre, said Tom Inglis, a poultry veterinarian and a board member for the institute.

Vaccine work will be done in Calgary, while Airdrie provides diag-

nostic services.

Along with diagnoses, the institute will develop, produce and commercialize made-in-Canada vaccines and promote technology for food safety and biosecurity needs on poultry farms, said Nick Allan, the newly appointed general manager.

Alternatives to antibiotics are mostly vaccines to fight against food safety related bacteria like salmonella and campylobacter as well as immunization against some bird diseases.

“One of the initiatives is early disease detection,” said Inglis.

He wants to work with producers, who are the first to notice changes in the birds’ health. Diagnosis and treatment can then be offered sooner.

Live birds can be received in newly designed carriers for diagnosis at Airdrie.

TRADE DEAL | FROM PAGE ONE

Canada, EU reach deal Harper said the trade deal, four years in the making, is a win for supply management because Europe agreed to recognize the legitimacy of the system.

“For the dairy industry and more particularly for cheese producers, it is possible that there might be some losses in some parts of the domestic market on a temporary basis, and we committed ourselves to offering compensation that will fully take into account the unfavourable side effects,” he said.

While provinces must agree to the deal and have been involved in negotiations, Harper said the Quebec and Ontario governments have signalled they will support it.

Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz, who has been key in nurturing a relationship with the dairy industry, said the deal does not have to erode the trust dairy leaders have had in the Conser vatives to defend them, despite initial objections.

He said the goal of the negotiations was to preserve the three elements of supply management: import controls that lend predictability to the system, production quotas and price setting.

“Every one of our pillars in the domestic system of supply management has been preserved, and that’s what we said we would do,” he said.

“A n y o n e w h o t h o u g h t t h e r e wouldn’t be give and take in this negotiation were under-selling what goes on in negotiations, but we preserved the three pillars and that is what is important.”

National business groups applauded the deal and its promise of 80,000 jobs and more than $12 billion in new market access.

They argued that the increased 17,000 tonne cheese import into a market of more than 300,000 tonnes of production is small potatoes.

The Canadian Federation of Agriculture did not see it that way.

President Ron Bonnett said the deal violates the government’s promise of a “balanced position” between export promotion and protection of supply management.

While the CFA said it appreciated the promise of compensation, it noted that no details have been announced on how it would happen.

It estimated a loss of $150 million each year in dairy sales.

The government said that Canadian cheese makers can compete in the market opened for European cheeses.

Dairy industry cheesed off Trade deal details still vague | Agreement with EU could see cheese imports to Canada double

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Martin Van Diemen heard the news last week that a Canada-European Union trade deal could double European cheese exports to Canada.

An additional 17,000 tonnes could increase import levels to eight percent of domestic cheese consumption.

The dairy producer from Picture Butte, Alta., heard dairy industry leaders denounce it as a betrayal of the industry and an undermining of supply management. Governments said it was no big deal.

But by Oct. 21, he still had not heard the details.

“At this point, I think it is a negative for the industry and a lot of people are talking about it, but I really don’t have the facts,” he said. “The deal has been made and I’m scrambling for information to find out exactly what is going on.”

Alberta Milk meetings this week could provide answers for producers like Van Diemen about the effect on their farms.

However, judgments have already been reached at the national level.

Dairy Farmers of Canada president Wally Smith said DFC will fight it as a sellout of the Canadian industry.

“This deal would displace our local products with subsidized cheeses from the EU and risk our small businesses being shut down or put out of business,” he said.

“This is unacceptable.”

The Conservative government, which has worked hard to support supply management, has a different take.

It argued that offering Europe an extra 17,000 tonnes of access is not going to disrupt the system in a country that produced 330,000 tonnes of cheese in 2011.

As well, with cheese consumption

growing by as much as 8,000 tonnes per year, the increased European market share would be swallowed up by the time the deal takes effect in 2015.

“We’re confident growth in the domestic market will easily outstrip the added access,” trade minister Ed Fast said as the government launched a national selling job for the deal.

In Brussels, when he announced the agreement-in-principle Oct. 18, prime minister Stephen Harper insisted that rather than a loss for supply management, the deal with the European Union was actually a major victory for the system.

“I think it is important to say that this is a major gain for them because here we have a trade agreement, a worldclass trade agreement, that recognizes and protects the system,” he said.

“That is a major achievement in the development of the trade system across the world.”

Harper also said the federal government would offer compensation if there is any measurable damage to dairy sector sales. There was no indication if the compensation would apply to small artisan cheese makers affected by increased competition.

It was not clear how or to whom compensation could be paid.

Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz, who has played the lead role in winning dairy industry support, said he understands initial dairy industry concern, but the facts should calm the fears.

“I understand their angst because to them this is the thin edge of the wedge,” he said.

“But having said that, dairy farmers and processors control 96 percent of the market now and with the amount being allocated, they will have 92 percent. With consumption increasing, within a couple of years they will be back where they were before.”

INTERNATIONAL TRADE | MEAT PROCESSORS

Beef industry salutes trade deal, access to $1B foreign market

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Canada’s livestock and meat processing industries are cheering last week’s agreement-in-principle on a CanadaEuropean Union trade agreement, but significant work remains before the sectors can cash in.

The industries saluted it as a chance to access a $1 billion market.

“Compared to an average value of

only $54 million of meat exports to the EU during the past three years, the results of the (free trade) negotiations will offer export opportunities with a potential annual sales value of up to $1 billion for Canadian beef, pork, horsemeat, bison and prepared meats,” said the Canadian Meat Council (CMC), which represents packers.

However, hurdles and investment requirements exist that have yet to be

surmounted.

In the two years before the agreement takes effect, Canada and the EU have agreed to negotiate “technical barriers” that have often made access promises merely theoretical by invoking other rules to block access.

Packing plants will have to invest tens of millions of dollars to bring their production practices into alignment with EU rules.

And during that time, Canadian

cattle producers interested in accessing the new EU market will have to segregate animals to ensure that hormone-treated cattle are not in the queue.

For hog producers, it means ensuring that the feed ingredient ractopamine is not used for hogs destined for the EU market, where it is banned.

The CMC estimates the market potential at $600 million for beef and $400 million for pork.

“I have not seen estimates on how much investment would be needed in the industry, but when this deal comes into force in two years, we’re talking access of $1 billion in beef and pork alone,” said Suzanne Sabourin, the council’s director of regulatory and international trade.

“We think this would be an opportunity that is worth the investment.

But clearly, there is work to do before we are there.”

ACCUWEATHER’S WINTER FORECASTS

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

AccuWeather has issued its winter temperature and precipitation forecast for Canada.

This might be a good year to invest in a new parka.

AccuWeather has released its winter weather forecast for the Prairies, and it is downright ugly.

The forecast calls for below normal temperatures for most of Saskatchewan and Alberta. The nastiest conditions are expected in November and December.

“You may be looking at some pretty amazingly cold outbreaks,” said Jack Boston, senior meteorologist with AccuWeather.

Manitoba is expected to have nearnormal temperatures, except for the southwestern portion of the province, which will be below normal.

Boston blames the grim outlook on the jet stream, which will bring blasts of cold Arctic air down from the north and northwest rather than milder Pacific Ocean air from the west.

“You (will) get one Arctic air mass after another coming down without much in the way of breaks in between,” he said.

“It’s going to be a very cold winter.”

How cold?

Saskatoon’s average monthly daytime highs and lows will be one to two degrees below normal.

That might not sound like much, but a one to two degree drop averaged over an entire month could mean that a few days in that month might have temperatures that are five

to 10 degrees below normal.

“I think there will be more times where it gets below -30 C this year than there were last winter,” said Boston.

He expects plenty of cross-polar flows , in which air masses from Siberia cross the Arctic and then descend into central Canada.

Travis Toews, past-president of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association, isn’t enamored with the forecast.

“I hope they’re wrong,” he said.

“With cold weather comes a higher calorie requirement for livestock.”

Fortunately, there is an abundance of corn, wheat and barley this year.

There is also plenty of forage, but much of it is of low quality so producers may have to supplement it with higher energy feed ingredients.

“They should be able to find it and find it at a lot lower cost than they would have a year ago,” said Toews, who operates a cow-calf operation and backgrounding feedlot west of Grande Prairie, Alta.

Adequate shelter will also be critical this winter if the AccuWeather

forecast becomes reality.

“For producers who don’t step up and respond, the performance of their cattle will be lower (and there will) likely be potential issues at calving with weak calves and higher death loss,” Toews said.

Producers might want to get their feed tested if they are unsure of the quality.

The AccuWeather forecast calls for above normal snowfall in the Rockies and southern Alberta. The map shows near normal snowfall in east-

ern Alberta, Saskatchewan and southwestern Manitoba. The rest of Manitoba will receive below normal snowfall.

However, Boston’s analysis differs from what the map shows. He said Saskatchewan and Manitoba will have below normal snowfall.

“The storm track is going to be way too far south and east. The only snow you get is light snowfalls,” he said.

“It’s going to be real cold but we’re not looking for any significant snowfalls at this point.”

CANOLA | STRAIGHT CUTTING

Straight cutting canola: is there an advantage or not?

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

It never hurts to have another tool in the toolkit, which is why Manitoba farmers are seeking crop insurance for aerially seeded canola.

“I’ve never seeded canola by air, but guess what, a lot of farmers have,” said Keystone Agricultural Producers president Doug Chorney.

“It’s an important tool and in 2011 a lot of acres were seeded that way successfully.”

KAP and a delegation from the Manitoba Aerial Applicators Association were scheduled to meet with Manitoba Agricultural Services Corp., the provincial crop insurer, Oct. 21 to discuss the possibility of aerial seeding insurance for canola.

The spring of 2011 was an extremely wet and challenging time for growers in southwestern Manitoba. Overland flooding saturated thousands of acres of cropland and most producers failed to seed a crop.

However, some growers managed to get their canola in the ground by taking a chance on aerial seeding.

Chorney said the amount of aerially seeded canola in 2011 was surprising.

He heard that one aerial applicator did 10,000 acres in Manitoba and another company seeded 12,000 acres.

The aerial applicators association was expected to present data on acreage and canola yield from aerially seeded crops during the MASC meeting to demonstrate that it is a viable option.

A representative of the association wasn’t available to comment.

Chorney said insurance for aerially seeded canola might be predicated on crop stand.

“We would accept the terms of the insurance being set based on stand viability, much like they do with winter wheat or forage seed crops. They have the option to assess the stand viability and not offer insurance if it’s too thin,” he said.

“Once you have stand viability … you’re not taking any more risk than you would with a ground-seeded crop.”

Chorney said aerial seeding may represent a tiny fraction of provincial canola acres in a typical spring, but growers should have the insurance option.

“It’s not a significant percentage of our acres, but it’s significant for those farmers.”

An aerially seeded crop produced record yields on Dale Thorenson’s farm near Newburg, North Dakota, this year.

Late snow melt and heavy rain had drenched Thorenson’s fields by late May. Thorenson’s son and nephew seeded canola with an airplane June 1 because they wanted something in the ground to soak up moisture.

After incorporating the seed with a harrow and a coulter, the canola yielded 50 bu. per acre.

“For canola, I’d say that would match the highest yield we ever had,” said Thorenson, U.S. Canola Association assistant director. “(We) didn’t expect it to turn out as well as it did.”

LIVESTOCK | IMPROVING TRANSPORT CONDITIONS

Course teaches truckers on livestock Public face of industry | Program has worked with 1,700 livestock truckers since it was started in Alberta in 2007

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Livestock truck transport is a common sight on prairie highways and one of few fleeting connections many consumers will ever make with animal agriculture.

That’s one reason it is important to ensure livestock truckers are well trained in proper transport of their live cargo, says one industry expert.

But the most important reason is the health and safety of the animals themselves.

That is Geraldine Auston’s view. She is project co-ordinator of the Canadian Livestock Transport Certification Program, a training initiative developed in Alberta six years ago that officially became national in scope this month.

“It’s an emotional thing for people to see animals on a truck, knowing where they’re going,” she said.

“These animals are raised for food. That is a fact. But it doesn’t discount the fact that we do the best for them every step through this chain. That is what this program is about.”

More than 1,700 livestock truckers have taken the course since its 2007 inception by Alberta Farm Animal Care, said Auston.

That is only a portion of the people who haul livestock for a living or who have an interest in animal

It’s an emotional thing for people to see an animal on a truck, knowing where they’re going.

GERALDINE AUSTON CANADIAN LIVESTOCK TRANSPORT CERTIFICATION PROGRAM

transport. Promotion of the course is one of her early goals.

The course provides information on animal handling, welfare, regulations, optimal travelling times, trailer design, bedding, loading and offloading and a host of other topics related to transport of cattle, hogs, horses, sheep, poultry and other species.

Formerly known as the Certified Livestock Transport training program, the updated version reflects different challenges in different parts of the country, said Auston.

For example, rain is a bigger consideration for truckers in British Columbia, while wind chill is a primary concern during Saskatchewan winters.

Auston said the program, now organized through the Canadian Animal Health Care Coalition, is training instructors for classroom teaching and is also developing an online version of the course.

However, the program continues to be available while this occurs.

Once participants have passed

the course, certification is effective for three years, after which it must be taken again to re-certify.

There are three certification levels, with material designed for truckers, on-farm handlers, dispatchers, processing plant workers and others with an interest in the process.

The cost is $125 per year, for a total of $375. Auston said the coalition is examining ways to offset the cost to truckers.

Dr. Karen Schwartzkopf-Genswein, who has studied livestock transport in her work with Agriculture Canada, said she applauds the course becoming national in scope.

“I think it’s obviously the way we need to go and has such good benefits for the industry, for the public in general, for the animals. It’s making something we do, better,” she said.

“Any training we can put into place for people hauling our animals is a good thing.”

Is there a yield advantage to straight cutting canola?

It all depends on timing, says Thorsten Stanze, who farms near Rosenort, Man. Straight cutting boosted yields by four to five bushels per acre on Stanze’s farm southeast of Winnipeg.

His straight cut canola yielded 68 bu. per acre and his swathed canola generated 63 to 64 bu., on average.

However, in spite of this year’s results, Stanze isn’t convinced straight cutting outperforms swaths.

“The answer is, I don’t know,” said Stanze, who has straight cut part of his canola crop for five years.

“If you get the straight cut off with proper timing, you have a higher yield on the straight cut, but you run into the risk of losing crop. We have lost about 400 acres, four or five years ago.”

That year, wind shattering knocked his straight cut yield down to 15 bu. per acre. Meanwhile, Stanze’s swathed canola produced 45 bu.

Angela Brackenreed, a Canola Council of Canada agronomist in Manitoba, said there’s no clear-cut answer on the yield benefits of straight cutting.

“The jury is still out on the allaround benefits of straight cutting,” she said.

“But so far there really isn’t indication there is a huge yield increase to straight cutting, although there’s no indication there’s a yield detriment to straight cutting.”

Still, the evidence suggests straight cutting improves crop quality, she added.

“Bigger seed, higher oil, less dockage. That kind of thing.”

Based on her observations, more growers are trying straight cutting or considering it in Manitoba. “(There’s) more straight cutting on the eastern side of province than the western side of the province,” Brackenreed said.

“I think the only reason (for) more prevalence in certain areas is a few producers start doing it, then their neighbours might (start) feeling comfortable with it.”

Brackenreed advises growers to straight cut a portion of their crop and swath the remainder to manage time and tasks during harvest.

Stanze concurred, noting he uses both approaches to mitigate risk.

For Stanze, straight cutting is all about timing. If the canola is ripe and set to go, he makes it a priority at harvest.

“If you have nice wheat (ready to harvest) and the canola is ready, you have to take the canola (first)…. Ninety-nine percent of the success is timing.”

At 68 bu. per acre, Stanze’s straight cut crop produced one of the highest yields in Manitoba. Nonetheless, many canola growers southeast of Winnipeg posted record yields this fall.

James Karlowsky, who farms three kilometres west of Brunkild, averaged 58 bu. per acre on his farm.

Cam Freeborn, sales representative at the Brunkild Crop Production Services branch, formerly a Viterra outlet, said most canola growers in the region reported yields of 55 to 65 bu. per acre.

This year, anything under 50 is a poor canola crop around Brunkild, he said.

“The worst I heard is 45 bu.”

Oil content of canola hits industry target Upward trend | Early returns from 2013 crop show average oil content of 45.1 percent

BY SEAN PRATT

CANOLA’S OIL CONTENT

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

There has been much hoopla about canola meeting its 2015 production target two years ahead of schedule, but the industr y could achieve another equally ambitious goal this year.

The mean oil content of the 1,088 canola samples analyzed by the Canadian Grain Commission as of Oct. 21 was 45.1 percent.

The target established by the Canola Council of Canada in Growing Great 2015, a guiding vision for the industry developed in 2007, was an average oil content of 45 percent.

“It’s a tremendous achievement by the industry as a whole,” said Rick White, general manager of the Canadian Canola Growers Association.

Not that long ago, people used to refer to canola as a crop that was 40 percent oil and 60 percent meal.

Those days appear to be long gone.

The oil content number bounces around from year to year, but in general there has been a distinct upward trend. White said the recent 10-year average is close to 44 percent.

It is happening at the same time that yields and production are on the rise. Statistics Canada in September forecast 16 million tonnes of production this year, well above the industry goal of 15 million tonnes by 2015.

Weber Commodities Inc. said Statistics Canada in the final December report has revised the canola number up in each of the past seven years by an average of 1.5 million tonnes, so the goal could be obliterated two years ahead of schedule.

Veronique Barthet, program manager of oilseeds at the Canadian Grain Commission, believes this year’s impressive oil content average is the result of better genetics and superb growing conditions.

“If you removed the moisture, you could have 50 percent oil in some of the samples, so it’s pretty high,” she said.

The commission has analyzed twothirds of the samples it anticipates it will receive this year.

Most of the Manitoba samples are in, and the vast majority of the remaining one-third will come from Saskatchewan and Alberta, where oil content is usually higher. As a result, there’s a good chance the number will stay above 45 percent, although

Oil content bounces around a lot from year to year but there is a general trend towards higher content in the Canadian crop. At one time people thought of canola as 40 percent oil, but the recent 10-year average is close to 44 percent and this year's content looks like it will come close to matching the record of 45.2 percent set in 2011.

nothing is certain.

The oil content in this year’s crop is nearly two percent higher than last year’s crop. Barthet suspects that is because July was milder than July 2012. Canola doesn’t like the heat.

“The planting was a bit delayed, but the weather was good for a long time, and that’s what is doing it,” she said.

This year’s oil content will rival the record of 45.2 percent set in 2011 if it stays at the current level. That is prompting calls for the introduction of oil-based price premiums.

The Canadian Canola Growers Association has investigated the idea but doesn’t think it is worth pursuing.

For one thing, the industry would have to equip elevators with machines to measure oil content, and they would have to be regularly calibrated, which is expensive.

“In our view, farmers are getting paid for oil content. It does come through either the futures price that is being offered or the basis levels that are being offered,” said White.

He doesn’t believe the extra expense would be worth it, considering grow-

Another problem is that some farmers would win and some would lose. Who wins and who loses would

be largely predicated on weather conditions.

“Really, what it does is put the risk of oil content directly onto the indi-

vidual farmer, and that’s a risk that they really can’t manage very well because it is so environmentally driven,” said White.

OATS | MARKETING

GRAINS | OUTLOOK

Futures prices may be hard to realize

Argentine forecast briefly spikes wheat futures

Selling oats | Transportation issues mean growers may not be able to capitalize on good prices

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

The market signal says sell, the elevator says full and the trucking company says sorry.

That’s the situation facing prairie oat growers as they look at a big futures market inversion but a commercial rail and trucking system that’s run out of capacity.

“It’s just watching a train go by. You can’t jump on it,” OatInsight analyst Randy Strychar said about December oat futures prices that are high compared to March.

“It looks really nice on paper, but there isn’t much he can do about it.”

Futures prices usually increase the further out they are, with the lowest priced futures being the nearby contract. Farmers often choose to price their crop using deferred months and delivering later, depending on the amount of premium leading into further out months.

Inversions, in which nearby futures are priced higher than later months, are rare and seen as a signal to sell immediately because holding crops into the future will likely bring a penalty rather than a premium.

It’s the situation now seen in oat futures with the December Chicago oat contract on Oct. 21 standing at $3.35 per bushel and the March contract at $3.14.

Farmers who want to move oats now to earn cash, clear bin space and benefit from the inversion are discovering that elevators aren’t taking anything beyond what they are already committed to, while trucking companies are booked for weeks and have increased hauling rates.

“Movement has been a little bit tough because of everything being plugged up,” said Brian Voth, an AgriTrend marketing adviser from Ste. Agathe, Man. Farmers have big crops of oats to move but no way to move them.

Lorne Boundy of Paterson Grain said farmers and end users are now separated by a logistics system that can’t get the oats from Western Canada to the Minneapolis area, where commercial use is based and the futures contract pegged. Buyers and people with short futures positions have been forced to boost prices in the delivery area, but farmers with crop can’t get it there.

“There might be one heck of a smoking bid at the buyer end, but getting it there is a different story,”

BY REUTERS & WESTERN PRODUCER STAFF

There was a bountiful oat harvest in Canada, but logistical problems are preventing deliveries and foiling efforts to capture strong cash bids and nearby futures. | FILE PHOTO said Boundy.

Inversions in oat prices, both futures and cash, have become common since spring, perplexing many about their true cause. Oat stocks in the Minnesota area have dropped to low levels after previous years of ample supplies, so the market becomes nervous when problems such as Canada’s congested logistics system arise.

The futures market is particularly nervous because of low trading volumes in the oats contract, which allows any sort of squeeze to drive prices quickly one way or the other.

People who are caught short have to chase prices higher to close out their positions, and the physical grain market has a limited ability to m i t i gat e a n d b e n e f i t f ro m t h e spreads because there is no way to get the grain there.

Strychar said companies caught too short might even have to import Scandinavian oats and ship them up the Mississippi River, although the price is presently prohibitive.

Strychar said farmers aren’t panicking about the situation. Most are bullish about oats, and like oat growers around the world, appear to be

willing to sit on their crops for a few months before selling them.

As well, the recent pattern of the oat futures inversion has been for the value of the next month contract rise to match the value of the expiring contract.

As a result, waiting hasn’t been a disaster.

However, the underlying oat market will likely suffer because of the high price of oats compared to corn.

Horse feed demand has plummeted, Strychar said, and southern U.S. feed manufacturers are switching to cheaper alternatives.

CROPS | HANDLING SYSTEM

American growers find more space in elevators

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

North Dakota and the Canadian Prairies produce a lot of wheat, but American farmers are finding theirs easier to move.

“For the most part, producers who have wanted to deliver have been able to,” said Jim Peterson, marketing director of the North Dakota Wheat Commission.

“It is tight, but I’m not aware of elevators totally plugged where they’re

having to turn producers away.”

Many congested prairie elevators in Canada are taking only crops that they have already contracted, but North Dakota elevators are generally able to take more crop.

NorthDakotafarmersharvestedexcellent yields of spring wheat, but unlike their northern neighbours, they haven’t hadtofightforrailspacewithothercrops.

Corn and soybeans are harvested weeks later than most wheat crops, so wheat has time to move through the system before it has to go head-to-head

with corn and soybeans.

An excellent export pace has also helped clear wheat from North Dakota, while significant areas that couldn’t seed because of spring saturation have left room in the logistics system to handle large crops from other parts of the state.

Peterson said farmers worry that basis levels could worsen and movement become more difficult now that the corn harvest has started.

“There’s a feeling that things might get tighter as the year progresses,”

said Peterson.

Farmers also worry that some grain merchants might try to take advantage of the looser rail system in the U.S. northern tier and try to move Canadian grain through there to Portland.

As well, they have been fretting over the possible competition for rail crews, engines and capacity with burgeoning oil shipments from northwestern North Dakota.

However, Peterson said problems with competing commodities have not been a particular problem.

CHICAGO, Ill. — Chicago Board of Trade wheat futures touched the highest level since June early this week before retreating on profit-taking and technical selling.

Wheat futures jumped almost three percent Oct. 18 after Argentina’s agriculture ministry estimated wheat production at only 8.8 million tonnes.

The estimate was sharply lower t ha n t h e Bu e n o s A i re s G ra i n s Exchange’s forecast of 10.35 million tonnes, while the U.S. Department of Agriculture put the crop at 12 million tonnes last month.

The ministry said last Oct. 21 that the estimate was wrong and it would soon issue a new forecast.

Argentina’s wheat crop has been plagued by dry weather and frosts, but many still believe it will be significantly better than last year’s disappointing 8.2 million tonnes.

Worries about frost in Argentina over the weekend had also lifted the market but temperatures did not fall as low as expected.

Instead, a good portion of the dry wheat belt enjoyed significant rain, which could help yields.

The crop will be har vested in December.

Wheat was also under technical pressure early this week.

“Wheat was overdone, it came up and kissed the 200 day (moving average) and backed off. No one is too enthralled about wheat going much above $7 with corn below $5,” said Sterling Smith, futures specialist for Citigroup.

“We’ve gained a lot of ground in the past few days, so maybe it’s time for the market to take a breather,” another European trader said.

Resumed seeding eases weather risk to Black Sea harvest Seeding conditions improve after wet start KIEV (Reuters) — Thanks to drier weather, seeding of winter crops has resumed on farms in Ukraine and Russia, easing fears of a drastic drop in the winter crop in the region in 2014.

Ukraine will only lose up to 1.2 million acres of winter grain sowings for 2014, sharply down from its previous estimate of 3.7 million acres, agriculture minister Mykola Prysyazhnyuk said on Oct. 17.

The improved seeding conditions have also helped Russia’s farmers progress with seeding after a wet start to the campaign.

Prysyazhnyuk said earlier this month that the winter grain area sown for 2014 harvest could shrink by about 20 percent because of excess autumn rainfall. He said win-

ter wheat area could fall to 15.5 million acres against an initially anticipated 17 million.

“We had 10 days of dry weather and we had used them in full (for sowing).

The losses of 980,000-1.2 million acres are not critical because next spring we will increase the area sown for spring grains,” he said.

In late September, Ukraine’s grain lobby UAC shocked wheat markets when it said winter wheat area might drop as much as 30 percent because of wet weather.

Prysyazhnyuk said thanks to drier weather this month the acreage of winter wheat likely won’t fall significantly. Most of the decline will likely come at the expense of winter barley.

Farmers had sown 15 million acres of

The area included 12.6 million acres of winter wheat, or 76 percent of the initially expected sowing area.

Ukraine traditionally grows winter wheat, which accounts for more than 90 percent of its overall wheat output.

In Russia, winter grain for the 2014

crop was sown on 29.9 million acres, or 73.9 percent of the planned area as of Oct. 17, compared with 37.3 million acres a year earlier, the agriculture ministry said.

OILSEEDS | MARKETS

Oilseed planting favoured as corn barely covers production costs MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

T

he bumper U.S. corn harvest is pushing the price of the crop below $4.40 per bushel, a level not seen since 2010.

However, oilseed prices are doing better because of a tighter global supply, expectations that the U.S. Department of Agriculture will trim its U.S. soybean seeded area estimate in the next report and the hot, dry weather in the Midwest in late summer that limited yields.

Analysts expect stronger oilseed prices to increase soybean acres and reduce corn acres in South America, where seeding is in progress now.

Early predictions are that American farmers will also favour soybeans next year, seeding a record large crop.

.

If the expectations hold true, it would keep downward pressure on the price of canola and other oilseeds next year.

Influential private analyst Informa last week forecast that American farmers would seed 83.9 million acres to soybeans next year, an increase of nine percent over this year.

Corn area would slide six percent to 91.7 million acres and wheat rise two percent to 57.7 million acres.

If realized, the soybean figure would be a record large area, ahead of the 78.1 million acres seeded in 2010.

The market is signalling against corn acres.

The November 2014 soybean futures contract was $11.71 per bushel Oct. 21, 2.42 times the value of the December 2014 corn contract, or a ratio of 2.42:1.

Some analysts say soybeans are more profitable to seed than corn when the ratio tops 2.2:1. Others put the ratio a little higher, but 2.42 is a fairly strong signal.

Another signal is that the Iowa State University extension division estimates that the break-even selling price for corn in Iowa is $4.18 per bu.

However, the cost of production is $4.87 if costs such as depreciation on machinery and buildings, the value of unpaid labour and interest costs on term debt are included. That means today’s corn price falls short of covering all costs.

South America looks set to produce a record soybean crop.

Oilseed analyst Oil World forecasts that the five top soybean producers in South America will increase seeded area by close to four percent to 134 million acres.

There is a strong possibility that the United States will for the first time lose its crown as the world’s largest soybean producer to Brazil. Brazil has already been the top exporter for

several years.

For the Brazilian soybean crop, which is considered the 2013-14 crop, analysts have a range of estimates from as low as 85 million to as high at 89.5 million tonnes.

That would be up from 82 million tonnes last year.

The USDA and several private forecasters are all at 88 million tonnes or more.

The current U.S. soybean production estimate is 85.7 million tonnes.

The forecasts for Brazil’s corn crop range from 71.4 million to 83.6 million tonnes, compared to 81 million last year.

Argentina’s government expects its farmers to seed 51 million acres of soybeans, up 1.6 million from last year.

It put the corn seeded area at 14.1 million acres.

Could all this mean that oilseeds will experience next year the same sort of price collapse that has plagued corn in recent months?

It’s too early to say yet because weather is always a wild card, and we don’t know what demand will be.

However, it’s possible there might be no shining star market performer in the lineup of 2014 crop choices.

FED CATTLE RALLY

Restrictions may curb palm expansion

U.S. cash cattle markets, suffering from tight market-ready supply, flirted with record highs, which supported higher live cattle futures.

The Canadian cash market was also up, attracting early marketing of cattle that would have been sold later this month.

Weighted average steer prices in Alberta were $121.38 per hundredweight, up $2.59, the highest level in the past 18 weeks and only $1.32 shy of the record high set in June.

Heifers averaged $120.52, up $2.41.

Basis levels usually strengthen from October to November.

Packer interest in the cash market was mixed with most of the buying done by one company.

Both the Alberta-Nebraska cashto-cash basis and the Alberta fed cash-to-futures basis strengthened and are in line with the five year average.

Plants at Pasco, Washington, and Lexington, Nebraska, are changing Ca na d i a n c at t l e p ro c u re m e nt strategies.

They will buy only feeders and then feed them in the United States. The plants will no longer buy Canadian fed cattle because of country-of-origin labelling.

Feeder exports are anticipated to ramp up, while fed exports should slow.

The effect on the fed market should be limited because of the tight fed supply and carcass weights that are smaller than last year.

COWS DIP Slaughter cow volumes going to market are seasonally increasing, and prices fell about $1.

D1, D2 cows ranged $72-$83 to average $76.79 per cwt., and D3s ranged $62-$74 to average $68.64.

Rail prices held mostly steady to range $149-$154 delivered.

Cows were $12-$13 higher than the same week last year.

Butcher bulls were steady, averaging $86.42 per cwt.

Weekly western Canadian non-fed slaughter to Oct. 12 rose 12 percent to 7,876 head.

Protecting small producers | Rules will limit new plantations to 250,000 acres FEEDER PRICES UP A good volume of quality calves was offered, and average feeder prices generally rose $2 per cwt.

Calves weighing 300-400 pounds jumped $5 per cwt. higher, and 400600 lb. calves rose $3-$4.50.

Calves 600-700 lb. rose $1-$2, and 700-900 lb. calves were steady to $1 higher. Yearling steers fell about $1.50, while similar weight heifer prices were steady.

Alberta auction volumes have increased over the past four weeks.

Sales last week rose 12 percent to 48,832.

The calf run has begun with many special calf sales and feedlot buy orders. Auction volumes should swell significantly larger with harvest wrapped up and beautiful weather for roundup and delivery.

Keen interest in load-size lots of quality calves should maintain steady prices.

BEEF PRICES RALLY U.S. weekly slaughter volumes are below last year’s pace, which should push beef higher and help packers improve as long as consumers don’t rebel.

Urner Barry, a livestock data company, reported U.S. boxed beef prices rose last week, with Choice up $2.95 at $195.14 US per cwt. and Select up $3.93 at $181.42.

Weekly Canadian cut-out values to Oct. 11 saw AAA up $4.14 Cdn per cwt. and AA up $2.76.

Montreal wholesale prices for delivery this week were steady at $225-$226 per cwt.

WP LIVESTOCK REPORT HOGS RISE The hog market welcomed back the flow of U.S. Department of Agriculture data once the government reopened.

Analysts expected it would take a day or two for prices to realign with the official data.

Cooler temperatures and cheaper corn values should increase the amount of pork in coming weeks.

Packers might slow kill lines to try to improve their operating margins.

Retailers had an adequate supply for the rest of October, which is national pork month in the U.S. Iowa-southern Minnesota hogs delivered to packing plants rose to $69 US per hundredweight Oct. 18, up from $67-$68 Oct. 11.

The estimated pork cut-out value was $94.30 Oct. 18.

Ron Plain and Scott Brown of the University of Missouri noted the average hog price Oct. 18 was 96.2 percent of cutout, which was unusually high.

Estimated weekly U.S. slaughter to Oct. 19 was 2.97 million. The previ-

ous week data is not available because of the U.S. government shutdown. Slaughter was 2.382 million last year in the same week.

BISON STEADY The Canadian Bison Association said Grade A bulls in the desirable weight range averaged $3.50 Cdn per pound hot hanging weight with sales to $3.70. Grade A heifers sold at $3.45 with sales to $3.55.

Animals older than 30 months and those outside the desirable buyer specifications may be discounted.

LAMBS SLIGHTLY WEAK Ontario Stockyards Inc. reported 1,036 sheep and lambs and 130 goats traded Oct. 15. All classes of lambs sold steady to slightly weaker. Sheep and goats sold steady.

JAKARTA, Indonesia (Reuters) — An Indonesian rule limiting plantation areas to just 250,000 acres for new palm oil firms threatens an ambitious production goal of 40 million tonnes by 2020, says an industry group.

The country’s soaring palm oil production is expected to hit 31 million tonnes this year, up from 12 million 10 years ago. It has put d ow nw a rd p re s s u re o n g lo ba l oilseed prices, including canola.

Analysts say the new rule aims to protect small plantation firms from bigger companies and will close a loophole allowing major players to set up firms in different provinces.

The new law exempts state-owned firms, co-operatives and listed firms in which small individual investors make up a majority stake, and will not affect companies that already have plantation permits.

“This new regulation is purely to curb oil palm plantation development in Indonesia,” said Timbas Prasad Ginting of the Indonesian Palm Oil Association.

“Perhaps this government step is merely to satisfy foreign pressures.”

Indonesia is a key player in the battle against climate change and faces international pressure to halt rampant deforestation and destruction of carbon-rich peatlands.

“The palm oil plantation restriction will slow annual production growth so that we will not achieve our target of 40 million tonnes in 2020,” Ginting said.

Indonesia, home to the world’s third-largest expanse of tropical forests, should not rely solely on expansion to boost yields, said deputy agriculture minister Rusman Heriawan.

Better farming techniques could also

increase production, he added.

Heriawan said the law will require new palm plantation firms to offer a fifth of their land for development by local farmers where possible and gradually divest 30 percent of new palm oil mills to co-operatives within 15 years of operation, He gave no details of whether the new rule would affect plantations with land licences about to expire or be renewed and how the law would affect existing firms seeking to expand.

EDUCATION | AGRICULTURE

CRAIG’S VIEW

Ag sector interest sends university enrolment up

I

f there was any lingering doubt that agriculture has become a sexy industry, the recent interest shown by young people should put it to rest.

Witness the enrolments in prairie universities, where students are flocking to agriculture colleges across the region.

The University of Manitoba has seen a whopping 24 percent increase in its degree program this year over last, while enrolment in the diploma program is also up. The University of Saskatchewan’s College of Agriculture and Bioresources has grown by 10 percent, even as the rest of the university’s enrolment has remained flat.

Things are also looking up at the University of Alberta, boosted by a new animal health program, while Olds College is full with a number of students on a waiting list.

The Western College of Veterinary Medicine, also at the U of S, has recently attracted a significant private donation to enhance its equine component.

“The agricultural industry and the Prairies in general has been very strong,” said Brian Amiro, associate dean for academics at the U of M’s faculty of agricultural and food sciences, in a recent WP story.

“That’s been going on for quite awhile, but especially lately. Students are realizing that getting an education in agricultural and food science is a great opportunity for a career.”

The increase in interest is likely not too surprising if one looks at the commodity cycle of the last five years. High prices and decent crops have put agriculture back into the economic limelight, and as Amiro notes, that’s the big driver.

On the less positive side, the anti-farm practice lobby has also catapulted food and its manufacture onto the mainstream radar. It is possible that some students have been driven into the sector by a desire to either improve technology or debunk the rampant myths now pervasive in the media.

Whether it’s the economic angle or the

philosophical one, rising enrolments make sense.

Still, since the size of farms have increased and the number of farmers decreased over several decades, one might expect fewer farm-raised students to embark on agricultural careers. As a result, the new interest in agricultural study is heartening.

Many aspects to agriculture need attention, and new crops of scientists and educated farmers will be required to address them.

The issues range from understanding and managing weed resistance, dealing with consumer and activist-led public concerns and developing new crop varieties to keep up with an ever-changing climate, not to mention advanced farm management.

As the commodity cycle takes a downturn, which seems to be occurring now, more bright lights will be needed to support and defend the food industry. No matter what happens in the cycle, growing food will always be the most crucial industry in the world. Bringing on the next generation is vital to agriculture’s continued health.

We hope that funding for agriculture colleges will be robust and unwavering.

There are enormous expenses related to education and research, yet they are not just worthwhile but crucial to the economy.

Universities are under pressure to reduce tuitions and cut costs, making program delivery decisions difficult.

But in no other field are the returns to society and human health as significant.

The young people entering ag colleges in droves likely understand that. Many of them seek good careers, but they also want to make a difference. They are the scientists and farmers of the future.

It’s a wonderful thing to see them signing up for agriculture.

Canada, European Union trade agreement not so bad for dairy after all NATIONAL VIEW

BARRY WILSON

I

n the simple and complex politics of Canada’s supply management system, the simple truth is that last week the Conservatives broke a promise.

They signed a Canada-European trade deal that will double potential imports of European cheese to 30,000 tonnes. The dairy industry is outraged, arguing it is a deal to allow subsidized European cheese to compete with Canadian product.

Eight years ago when a motion was before the House of Commons instructing the then-minority Liberal government not to budge on supply management protections in trade talks, every single Conservative voted for it.

The vote was unanimous: 288–0.

An election was in the offing, the minority Liberals were vulnerable and the Conservatives needed to convince rural Ontario and Quebec, where the farm vote matters, that this former antiprotectionism party was onside.

Mission accomplished. In 2006, the Conservatives won a minority government with strong rural Ontario and Quebec support.

Fast forward to 2013 and the signing of what the Conservatives say is the most extensive trade deal in Canadian history, opening a European consumer market of 500 million to Cana-

dian products including up to $1.5 million in agricultural sales.

In the complex and simple politics of Canada’s supply management system, the complex truth is that this is a far better deal than the supply managed system could have hoped for as talks progressed.

The industry is protesting, as it must. Privately, it must be relieved.

The government was under pressure to open up the protectionist supply management system. It will be again in Trans-Pacific Partnership trade talks.

Instead, it struck a deal with the EU, the world’s largest trading bloc, to preserve dairy supply management giving the Canadian industry control of 92 percent of the domestic cheese market with that percentage to grow as domestic consumption grows and European imports are capped at

30,000 tonnes in a market of more than 300,000 tonnes.

The deal should be a template for future agreements.

Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz argues that while dairy farmers have a right to be upset and concerned about future erosion in market share, the EU agreement preserves their right to a vast majority of the domestic market.

Besides, the increased access comes through increased tariff rate quotas that define set levels for imports.

At the core of supply management is assurance of supplies in the market that allows production quota setting.

The deal with the EU slightly increases the imports of cheese but in identifiable quantities that preserve the core of supply management.

The fear always has been a trade deal (as New Zealand would like in the

TPP) that would reduce tariff levels, making import levels less predictable.

That did not happen with the European deal. In reaction to Dairy Farmers of Canada and Canadian Federation of Agriculture criticism of the concession, Ritz (who voted for the no-concession motion) said give and take in trade negotiations are normal.

“Every one of our pillars in the domestic system of supply management have been preserved and that’s what we said we would do,” he said.

“The pillars of supply management have been preserved.”

He’s right. The chance of a small dairy import concession derailing a multibillion dollar trade deal were nil.

Dairy leaders should be privately celebrating even as they do their public political thing.

Education gap hurts rural, Aboriginal communities

Dwindling data collection hurts growers EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

BY KEN COATES

E

ducators have committed themselves to serving the needs of rural and remote learners since public universities and colleges were first formed in the 19th century.

After the 1970s, institutions expanded their outreach to include Aboriginal students, many of whom are place-bound in remote communities.

The growth of the internet, even with notoriously poor service in northern and remote regions, has now expanded exponentially our ability to reach well beyond the major cities and towns.

There are thousands of individual success stories — indigenous and non-Aboriginal rural learners who have completed advanced study using distance education — but the reality is that the effort is not working well overall.

Most online learners are either regular on-campus students or from urban areas. Major advances in online education may be exacerbating the urban-rural divide rather than addressing it.

Nothing, except for the technical challenges, stops Aboriginal and other rural residents from capitalizing on the educational opportunities available.

So, what stands in the way of mass participation? I would highlight five

key challenges: • Poor prior experience — Many rural and Aboriginal adults experienced inadequate high school preparation and had bad experiences with schooling. Students who are not well prepared in terms of basic skills nor keen to learn are unlikely to approach postsecondary institutions.

• Shortage of local role models — Most teachers and professionals in these areas come from outside the area. Small groups of students who engage in post-secondary education appear to draw others into the world of advanced learning.

• Limited local or accessible mentoring — Online, self-directed learning is difficult in the best of times. The absence of mentors, tutors and people familiar with local social realities in remote and rural communities makes it more difficult for independent learners to progress.

• Disconnect between local realities and post-secondary curricula — Rural and Aboriginal communities are unique and fascinating places.

Most post-secondary education curricula make scant reference to these socio-economic environments and therefore appear disconnected and less relevant to some learners.

• Disconnect in expectations — Many institutions significantly underestimate the challenges

associated with undertaking a postsecondary education. Because of the limited local or regional engagement, many rural and Aboriginal students do not always appreciate the length, intensity and difficulties of distance education.

Here are some suggestions on how to expand post-secondary education participation among Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal rural residents: • Develop e-learning familiarity — Build distance education into the last two years of high school so all students in rural and remote communities learn how to study online.

Developing a familiarity with e-learning can be beneficial as they enter post-secondary education and create more online learning opportunities.

• Improve adult preparation — Use these same high school courses as the core of adult basic education for mature learners and engage high school teachers as mentors for the adult learners.

• Unite regional students — Students benefit from recognizing that they are part of a larger and local community, even if they are taking different courses. Students are great at supporting each other.

• Engage in proactive recruitment: Colleges and universities are effective at recruiting for on-campus enrolment but are less accom-

plished at finding students for e-learning. Outreach activities focused on people currently in the workforce, particularly if done personally, can help a great deal.

• Link programs with reality — Institutions must develop regionally relevant programs with rural and Aboriginal content and provide post-secondary education opportunities that respond to local employment opportunities. Targeted courses that prepare students for local opportunities are most likely to generate enthusiasm and enrolment.

Canada has superb rural educators and institutions with exceptional track records for working with northern and remote regions.

However, Aboriginal and other rural residents are not fully capitalizing on the educational opportunities available, which contributes to economic and personal challenges in these regions.

Proactive and creative policies can help. In all cases, knowing the people and the region is essential.

CROPS | MARKETING

Growers must consider more than just price HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

W

e obviously want to sell our grain for the best possible price and buy inputs such as fertilizer at the lowest possible price.

However, price isn’t everything, especially this year with its enormous crop on the Prairies.

Grain companies, and therefore producers, aren’t going to move all the grain they want, even without a work disruption at Canadian National Railway and even if it’s an easy winter without bitter cold snaps and deep snow.

Pricing grain, or at least locking in a basis, can ensure a place in the transportation system.

Unless you reserve a spot on the train, you could be disappointed later.

Bins are full, and producers feel pretty good when they multiply current prices by the volume in storage.

However, grain in the bin isn’t cash in the bank.

Grain can spoil, grain bins can fall over, grain bags can be damaged by wildlife and grain can be stolen. And before we know it, storage space will be needed for another crop.

Most farmers are in a strong cash position so they may not need to sell much to meet immediate financial commitments.

Someone recently tweeted that with harvest over, it was time to lock the bins until the bears go into hibernation. That could be a counterproductive attitude.

Prices go up and prices go down.

You can almost always find analysts who are bearish and others who are bullish. However, not many analysts are predicting the return of $14 a bushel canola any time soon.

No matter the direction of prices for

the balance of the crop year, there will be serious constraints to how quickly product can move through the system.

Price improvement won’t change the reality of transportation logistics.

In fact, our movement bottlenecks could mask possible price improvements in the world market.

For that reason, this is a different marketing year than most. Some commodities can still be sold quickly and turned into cash, but there isn’t much of a spot market for many of the major grains and oilseeds. Nearby transportation capacity is booked.

Waiting to see what happens does not a marketing plan make. Inaction could easily lead to disappointment.

This is also the case when it comes to buying fertilizer.

Why, you might ask, would anyone be in a hurry to buy fertilizer this fall?

Prices have generally softened, and no big upsurge is forecast. Last year, there was little or no price advantage to buying in the fall. And when you buy granular fertilizer early, there are usually more problems with lumps when you go to use it.

On top of that, many farms have nowhere to store granular fertilizer.

Fertilizer bins have been filled with grain that hasn’t yet been marketed.

For those who use anhydrous ammonia, why apply in the fall when you’re set up to apply it all in a single pass at seeding time?

We’re using an ever-increasing volume of fertilizer. Spot shortages in the spring have become common in recent years. This fall, with so many producers holding off on fertilizer purchases, input suppliers report that movement is dramatically slower than normal. That sets up the potential for a logistical nightmare in the spring.

It isn’t a happy situation if your seeding unit has to sit while you wait for fertilizer to arrive or if you have to scramble to find a supply from other retailers.

Just as with grain, price isn’t the only consideration.

Recent turmoil shows need for government data collection programs

D

omestic grain flows are becoming harder to track and analyze.

This is partly the result of changes to reporting requirements and processes in the federal Grains Act and the loss of CWB as a markets, shipping and sales reporter.

As well, the recent American congressional finance squabble kept the U.S. Department of Agriculture from delivering its monthly crop and livestock production and world agricultural supply and demand estimates on time or at all this month.

It shone a bright light on governments’ roles in the market’s ability to accurately account for and analyze the agricultural sector. Analysts began stumbling or at least overstating the obvious, and commodity markets went flat in just a couple of weeks.

The objectivity of governmentsupplied data is critical to all players: farmers, merchandisers, cattle feeders, packers, processors, traders and shippers, and of course, the media.

Typically, it is available to everyone, for free, which levels the pricediscovery playing field and allows for the educated guesses we all make about the future of prices and for the resulting cropping signals sent to producers.

Relying on processors and buyers to provide data is OK for a while in the absence of reliable, comprehensive data. However, they would quickly figure out where their bread is buttered, and the data they supply would either dry up or reflect their interests rather than reality.

WP Markets Editor D’Arce McMillan sums up this month’s data shortage by suggesting that a few pundits and analysts look pretty smart in the short term, but as the absence of reporting drags on, accuracy and confidence begins to rapidly slip.

As media, we strive to provide objective information, selecting the valuable kernels of truth from the chaff and screenings of irrelevant noise and ideological hyperbole. The more high quality data we have to harvest, the better the fodder we deliver to our readers, and the more informed they are in their farms’ decisions.

Data is challenging and sometimes expensive to collect, but it’s a job governments do well. Inaccurate information will cost producers a lot more in the not-so-long run.

I spent a busy day in Brandon …

Oct. 9, for it was a day the political leaders were delivering their speeches and declaring nominations. I decided to attend and listen to Green Party leader Elizabeth May. I was not disappointed with my choice.

The near two hour presentation, with questions and answers included, was a joy to listen to, and the standing ovation of appreciation was well deserved.

Green leader Elizabeth May does not make promises that are only bafflegab by the majority of today’s politicians. She is a superb speaker

and a great parliamentarian that tells it like it is, and makes no bones about it.

Her one discussion Save Democracy from Politics, was factual of what is taking place in Canada.

It would be a great deal less expensive for all Canadian citizens and taxpayers to send robot drones as our constituent representatives to Ottawa, she tells us, for the grassroots concept has been virtually eliminated.

I think the robot drones are definitely a worthy consideration. A little lubricating oil and occasional spray to keep irritating squeaks to a minimum would not be expensive to maintain.

Through time, former prime minis-

ters and the (Stephen) Harper government of today have accelerated the PMOs office as the Borg collective control.

Resistance is futile and our MPs are assimilated, or cast aside and eliminated. (Those familiar with The Next Generation can relate to the Borg).

And like a spreading disease of cancer, this has infected levels of our provincial and municipal governments as well.

But seriously, Canadians must speak out and breathe life back into the flickering embers of democracy to restore the flame, or in years to come, anarchy, such as we see and read about in other countries, will become a reality in Canada. Is that what we want?

FUTURE OF MEAT To the Editor: Your columnist Kevin Hursh, along with the (Sask. premier Brad) Wall and (prime minister Stephen) Harper governments, always seem to tout “the science” when making claims that (genetically modified organisms) GMOs, hormones, antibiotics, and the like are safe for animal and human consumption.

I’m left wondering what science they are using to back up these claims, however.

In September 2012, the results of the first ever long-term animal feeding trial of genetically modified corn and glyphosate residue were released, led by Gilles-Eric Seralini of the University of Caen in France.

The study results found much higher incidences of tumours, digestive problems, organ damage, and premature death in lab rats fed GM corn and glyphosate residue, the primary ingredient in Roundup.

In 2013, the results of a feeding study done on just-weaned pigs were released, conducted by Judy Carman of Flinders University in Australia.

It found that a diet of GM corn and soy produced severe stomach inflammation in the pigs, as well as enlargement of the uteruses in female pigs, indicating digestive and reproductive damage from GM diets.

Also in 2013, the results of a study on glyphosate excretion in the urine of Danish dairy cattle were released, led by Dr. Monica Kruger.

This study found that glyphosate was excreted in varying amounts by all the cattle studied from eight different farms. Blood tests showed toxicity, with a particular effect on liver and muscle cells, indicating glyphosate is toxic to the metabolism of dairy cattle.

People don’t want added hormones, antibiotics, steroids, or genetically modified organisms in their food.

The beef industry can adjust to this fact and provide what the people want, or it can step out of the way as companies like A&W move forward.

Antibiotic, hormone and GMOfree meat is the future. Good job A&W for reading the writing on the wall.

In the good old days, maybe fewer people were gluten-intolerant. Tiring of hearing about the growing list of dietary restrictions/demands, and seeing fit to downplay, dismiss and counter them wholesale, is the indulgence of someone blessed with health — or, in possibly many cases, someone who doesn’t realize he could feel healthier with some dietary changes.

Letting go of the past lets us move forward with anticipation SPIRITUAL VIGNETTES

JOYCE SASSE

It’s not about resuscitation.

Ours is a resurrection faith

“

W

e can mourn the loss of things of the past,” Bobbie Schuller said, “but we are called on to move forward.”

He was speaking to his congregation at a landmark time in its life journey.

Because of cumulative fiscal debt, those who once owned the Crystal Cathedral in Los Angeles, California, were forced to dispose of the iconic property and move the Hour of Power elsewhere.

As the moving process wound down, on two successive Sundays the young pastor delivered messages that spoke of wisdom and courage.

Roman Catholics now own the property that will be known as Christ Cathedral.

Schuller and his Catholic counterpart made it clear they want to maintain a dynamic relationship

between the two communities: a far different way of thinking than would have been possible in previous generations.

Naturally, big changes are in store for those whose new home will be Shepherd’s Grove Church.

Schuller talked about moving forward. It is not about resuscitation of what we had in the past. Ours is a resurrection faith.

“When death comes, don’t pretend it is not going to be. Mourn it.

Embrace it. And move on expecting there will be more.”

He reminded us “we can’t know how something is going to work out unless we let it die,” all the while believing in God’s promise of new life.

These words are helpful both for a grieving congregation and for all of us as we think back on the losses we have faced in the past and will face in the future.

Resuscitation speaks of longing for what once was and not letting go. This carries with it heavy burdens of regret.

Resurrection speaks of trust, hope, anticipation, of believing that God will be with us as we move forward, and will show us new vistas we never believed were possible.

WHAT A BUY To the Editor: Anyone having gone to an auction sale would hear the words, “Wa da buy”. I applied it to my cheque from Viterra shares.

Backing up to my original shares in the (Saskatchewan Wheat) Pool and UGG (United Grain Growers), I had approximately $60,000. My monies from the new owners were $615. “Wa da buy!”

This treatment seems to carry on in our government. The money from the CWB was taken by the government.

The minister of agriculture said we would have a vote before the demolishing of the board. I very much question the use of the word “honourable” in front of the title minister of agriculture. Have a nice day.

Gerald Kobelsky, Landis, Sask.

FROSTY FULL MOON To the Editor: A few issues ago of The Western Producer, a front page story stated that full moon and frost have no correlation.

I awoke Sept. 20, and discovered that my Environment Canada minimum thermometer registered -2 C. I looked on my calendar and found in large letters on Sept. 19 — full moon.

Sure enough, they do not have any correlation at all. It is a fact.

Our ancestors living here in Saskatchewan found out quite a long time ago that it was better than a 50-50 chance of frost on or very near a full moon in September.

Modern technology is all very fine but 90 percent of the time I will put my money on local legends because they are not run by computers.

A frost and the full moon may not occur as often as the dawn of a new day occurring at sunrise, but it certainly can most of the time in September.

LABOUR TALKS | TRANSPORTATION

Possible rail disruption an issue for grain transport Big harvest to haul | Ag industry watches closely as negotiations continue between CN and its workers

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM & REUTERS

Disruptions at either one of Canada’s major railway companies would have serious consequences for the grain industry, says the head of an organization representing the country’s largest grain handlers.

Wade Sobkowich, executive director with the Western Grain Elevators Association, said any disruption to rail service — be it labour related or otherwise — would make the already difficult task of moving this year’s

record crop even more onerous.

The WGEA represents major grain handlers including Viterra, Richardson and Cargill.

Association members handle 90 percent of Canada’s bulk grain exports.

“It’s a large crop … the largest in Canadian history, so it stands to reason that if we have more volumes of grain and oilseeds to move, that we’re going to struggle more than we otherwise would,” Sobkowich said.

“So yes, we’re concerned with our ability to do that.”

Last week, the union representing conductors, trainmen, yard workers and traffic co-ordinators at Canadian National Railway said labour disruptions at Canada’s largest railway could occur before the end of the month.

Representatives from the union and the railway met with a federally appointed mediator Oct. 21.

Entering the meeting, officials from both sides said they were optimistic that progress would be made.

However, a settlement had yet to be announced by the Western Produc-

er’s press deadline Oct. 21.

Close to 3,000 CN workers represented by the Teamsters have been without an agreement since late July.

“While the earliest date for a strike or lockout is … Oct. 29, CN remains optimistic that it can negotiate an a m i c a b l e s e t t l e m e nt w i t h t h e (union) to avoid labour disruption,” CN’s Mark Hallman said in an Oct. 21 email.

The threat of any disruptions to rail service, caused by labour, weather or another factor, is causing anxiety among farmers and grain handlers.

Sobkowich said fulfilment of rail car orders is already low with an estimated 50 percent of orders going unfilled each week for the past month or so.

“Grain handling companies are already rationing their sales” to match rail capacity, he said.

“The country system is about 91 percent full and terminals have a lot of space left, so we need to move a lot of products from the country to the terminals so that we can … relieve congestion,” he said.

Moving this year’s big harvest will require all parties along the supply chain to work together, not just railways, Hallman told Reuters last week.

CN expects to have a $100 million expansion to its capacity on the Winnipeg-Edmonton corridor in place by the end of November.

Mark Hemmes, president of Quorum Corp, which monitors rail performance in the grain sector, said both of Canada’s major railways are offering a larger number of rail cars for grain than usual.

However, moving crops fluidly is also about matching the needs of vessels lined up at port, he said.

“The railways are motivated to move as much grain as they can, and they may have a tendency to grab grain from an origin that might not match what’s required in that time frame at the port. That’s where we end up with congestion.”

Sobkowich acknowledged that demand for rail cars is higher than normal this year, in step with agricultural production.

However, he said current railway performance is failing to meet the grain industry’s requirements.

A bigger factor complicating grain movement this year is demand for railway capacity from other sectors of the economy.

“I think it’s fair to say that a large part of the problem is because they’re moving a lot more oil and petroleum based products,” he said.

Grain companies are incurring monetary penalties related to contract extensions and vessel demurrage, which are ultimately reflected in the payments producers receive for their grain, he added.

Sobkowich was also critical of rail service legislation passed by the federal government in June.

That legislation gives railway customers the right to negotiate service level agreements with railway companies.

However, Sobkowich said nobody in the grain industry is lining up to negotiate a service level agreement, largely because the arbitration process does not include provisions for monetary penalties.

“It (the legislation) is not having an effect,” Sobkowich said.

“We asked for some amendments to the legislation before it was passed and we didn’t get them, so it’s essentially made the legislation not very useful for grain shippers,” he said.

“We don’t see anybody sitting down and negotiating service level a g re e m e nt s w i t h t h e ra i l w ay s because at the end of the day …you can’t negotiate a service level agreement that puts in penalties for poor rail performance.”

Conservative government plans trade focus Throne Speech | Government plan for new session has little new in it for agriculture; Ritz non-committal on grain commission changes

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

As agricultural visions go, last week’s throne speech to launch the last two years of the current Conser-

vative mandate was thin gruel.

In a 23-page speech that took governor general David Johnston almost an hour to read Oct. 16, there was just one paragraph about agriculture to launch the new session of Parliament.

It was as much about the past as the future.

“Our government has given farmers marketing freedom and is helping them adapt and innovate,” Johnston read.

“It will continue to develop new markets around the world for Canadian products while supporting supply management.”

Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz said later that farmers should not expect grand new initiatives during the next two years of Conservative government. Trade policy will be the key to agricultural success.

“As far as agriculture goes, it will be more of the same, free trade agreements and when there are issues like country-of-origin labelling, we use our muscle at the WTO (World Trade Organization) to get those countries to a panel,” he said.

“We will continue to focus on trade and the marketplace, not the mailbox.”

He said the government wants to see more investment in new varieties and plans to reform the varietal registration process.

However, Ritz was non-committal about whether further changes to the Canadian Grain Commission are on the agenda.

Last year, the government changed the Canada Grain Act to shift more regulatory responsibility to the grain industry, reduce the number of mandatory services provided by the commission, end the system of regional assistant commissioners and increase commission fees to make it financially self-sufficient.

At the time, chief commissioner Elwin Hermanson said the next phase of reform should be to change the governance structure from the current commissioner system to a more typical corporate model.

Ritz said he met with Hermanson last week but would not comment on whether more changes to the commission are in the works.

“I’m not going to commit to anything because those discussions are ongoing,” he said. “Everything is on the table at this time.”

The throne speech also made scant mention of the long-time Conservative promise of Senate reform, noting that the Supreme Court of Canada will hear a federal reference this autumn to rule on whether Ottawa can act unilaterally to change the Senate without provincial agreement or constitutional change.

The Senate is mired in controversy over the expense claims of three Conservative senators appointed by prime minister Stephen Harper. This week, senators are debating a government motion to suspend Pamela Wallin (Saskatchewan), Mike Duffy (Prince Edward Island) and Patrick Brazeau (Quebec) without pay for up to two years.

Wallin has vowed to fight any suspension in court.

The throne speech said the current Senate is “unacceptable” and must be changed.

“The Senate must be reformed or, as with its provincial counterparts, vanish,” said the speech written by the government and read in the Senate chamber by Johnston.

“The government will proceed upon receiving the advice of the supreme court.”

A court ruling is not expected until next year.

The World Trade Organization heads into a December ministerial meeting in Bali, Indonesia, with modest agricultural expectations, projecting no major breakthroughs in new international food trade rules.

W TO a g r i c u l t u re c o m m i t t e e chair John Adank, ambassador from New Zealand, told a recent committee meeting in Geneva that firming up rules to limit use of export subsidies is one possible area of progress.

Delegates to a WTO ministerial meeting in Hong Kong eight years ago agreed to end agricultural export subsidies by 2013.

However, there was no overall agreement on an agricultural text at the Hong Kong meeting so the commitment was sidelined.

Eight years later, subsidized exports remain an issue in food trade. There have been recent examples of countries, including the United States with sugar products, planning to ship subsidized product into export markets.

Adank said during his address to the agriculture committee that there is broad agreement on the need to act but less agreement on how.

“On export competition, my sense

is that the recent discussions have helped us to move forward to identify what could be the various elements of a possible Bali outcome in this area,” he said.

However, even a deal to implement the 2005 agreement is far from certain.

“While we can see convergence emerging around some of these elements, it is fair to say that a number of issues still remain far from agreed,” he said.

Adank called for at least a declaration from the Bali conference that “export subsidies in all forms are a highly trade-distorting form of support.”

Other issues to be discussed include a proposal from developing countries that they be allowed to exceed limits on domestic subsidies if the money is used to buy food for national stockpiles and agreement on how to manage imports allowed under tariff rate quota trade rules that are not trade distorting.

For some observers of the WTO process, a failure to make any progress on agriculture after 12 years of Doha Round negotiations will signal the failure of the WTO process.

The trade objectives agreed to in 2001 have largely been bypassed, and regional trade deals are becoming more prominent.

WATER | MANITOBA FLOODING

Farmer disputes report on Lake Manitoba flooding Portage Diversion had ‘minimal impact’ | Farmer asks how .09 feet of additional water could cause billions in damage

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

The Manitoba government may be selling the idea that water from the Portage Diversion contributed little to the 2011 Lake Manitoba flood, but ranchers around the lake aren’t buying it. “People are just mystified as to how on earth can (government) state that the Portage Diversion raised it roughly .09 feet, which is an inch,� said Joe Johnson, who farms near Langruth, Man. “Where we are farming, you could stand four feet away from the water and watch it come toward you.�

On Oct. 16, the province released a technical report on the 2011 flooding of the Assiniboine River, Lake Manitoba and Lake. St Martin.

Manitoba transportation and infrastructure minister Steve Ashton said the water from the Portage Diversion, which moves water from the Assiniboine River to the south end of Lake Manitoba, didn’t flood farmland and residential property. “What the report also shows is the degree to which the operation of the Portage Diversion had very minimal impact on the lake,� he said during a news conference. “I think it had an impact, according

to the report, of .09 feet.�

The 2011 flood around the lake’s perimeter inundated thousands of acres of ranchland, forced farmers to move their livestock to higher ground and damaged hundreds of cottages on Lake Manitoba.

In response, the province paid hundreds of millions in flooding claims to farmers and property owners for their losses.

Despite the compensation, landowners around the lake remain frustrated because the province has never admitted that it was an artificial flood.

Farmers insist that the province deliberately flooded Lake Manitoba by expanding the capacity of the Portage Diversion and directing billions of litres of water from the Assiniboine into the lake.

The provincial government report, which was audited by an independent engineering firm, rejected that notion. “It is noteworthy that in spite of the significant artificial inflow to Lake Manitoba from the Portage Diversion, there was only a nominal artificial effect on the Lake Manitoba water level,� the report said.

Its authors based their conclusion on the assumption that water from the Assiniboine, which flows west to

!

"

east and south of the lake, would have jumped its banks and flowed into Lake Manitoba even if the Portage Diversion didn’t exist. “This means that during a large flood, a portion of the flows on the Portage Diversion are not artificial flows, as they would have occurred anyway under unregulated conditions,� the report said.

It said the lake would have been lower from June 22 to Aug. 30, 2011, under natural conditions, or without flood control structures such as the diversion and the Fairford outlet at the north end of the lake, but not much lower. “The regulated peak water level was 817.05 feet on July 23, 2011, versus the computed unregulated peak water level of 816.75 feet on July 1, 2011,� the report said. “The artificial increase in peak water level of .3 feet resulted in an estimated 24,000 additional acres around the lake being flooded.�

The report also said the province’s decision to excavate the Portage Diversion channel and expand its capacity from 25,000 cubic feet per second to 34,000 cubic feet per second contributed almost nothing to lake levels. “Restricting the flows on the Portage Diversion to the design capacity

of 25,000 cubic feet per second would have resulted in a peak water level that was only .09 feet lower.�

Johnson said the province’s conclusions about the flood are contradictory.

For instance, the report praises the diversion for sparing land and property downstream of Portage la Prairie. “Under unregulated conditions, without the benefit provided by the Portage Diversion and other flood protection infrastr ucture, the potential damage on the lower

Assiniboine River has been estimated to be $2.2 billion,� the report said.

However, Johnson said that means the province claims the diversion prevented severe flooding between Portage and Winnipeg but also that the diversion had no impact on Lake Manitoba. “They release a report that states the water was so insignificant it raised Lake Manitoba an inch. How on earth could an inch of water on Lake Manitoba cause (billions) worth of damage elsewhere?�

WORLD FOOD DAY | BIOTECHNOLOGY

City becomes centre for World Food Day events International panel discusses biotechnology | B.t. corn has enabled farmers to vary planting season and reduce risks

BY LES KLETKE FREELANCE WRITER

DES MOINES, Iowa — The celebration of World Food Day in Iowa has developed into an industry in true American fashion.

As Florida has turned baseball spring training into a business that attracts tourists and generates millions of dollars each spring, Des Moines has transformed World Food Day into an event as only America could.

The commercialism has not taken

A N

away from the recognition of agricultural scientist Norman Borlaug, the “father of the green revolution” who street banners proclaimed as “the man who saved a billion lives.”

The three-day event features everything that is food, and true to form, protesters are also part of the celebration. They decry what they say is cold-hearted profiteering of multinationals like Monsanto and DuPont.

Des Moines has set itself up to be the centre of the agricultural world for a week in October, and it does a

I M P O R T A N T

good job of living up to the billing.

The state legislature is transformed into a banquet hall that hosts the presentation of the World Food Prize, while a large former city library has undergone a multimillion-dollar renovation to become the World Food Prize Hall of Laureates.

Non-governmental organizations and aid organizations vie for attention in the trade show at the Marriott Hotel, which is the centre of World Food Day activities.

However, amid all the fanfare, the focus of the event remains figuring

out how the world will be fed in the next two decades.

This year, much of the celebration focused on the centenary of Borlaug’s birth in Cresco, Iowa, in March 1914, but a panel of farmers looked to the future and carried on his work with the next green revolution.

Gabriela Cruz, who operates a farm in southern Portugal that has been in her family for 100 years, was part of a panel that brought together four farmers and was chaired by Borlaug ’s granddaughter, Julie Borlaug.

A N N O U N C E M E N T

To Western Canadian Growers Seed Hawk owes our success to the growers and dealers who share our vision. Today, we want to make an important announcement to all Western Canadian farmers.

As of October 15, the Swedish agricultural equipment manufacturer Väderstad has increased its stake in Seed Hawk from 49 to 100 percent ownership. This will allow Seed Hawk to expand its operations in Langbank, Saskatchewan, even more than we had planned. The company will continue to be known as Seed Hawk, and our dealer and farm customers will work with the same Seed Hawk team they are familiar with.

When Väderstad was considering investing in a North American factory, the Seed Hawk management felt strongly that there was no better place to do it than Langbank, Saskatchewan, where our current manufacturing plant is located. But to make an investment of that magnitude, Väderstad wanted controlling interest in the company. When my partner Brian Dean and I looked at what having an even larger factory expansion in Langbank could do for our employees, our community and our province, we felt the best decision was for us to sell.

It was very important to Väderstad that Brian Dean and I maintained active, hands-on roles in Seed Hawk.

So the two of us will keep doing what we do best – strategic product and market development. We will both be part of the Board of Directors at Seed Hawk, and I am pleased to continue as the company’s spokesman.

We are also pleased to announce that Peter Clarke, formerly our General Manager, is now President and CEO of Seed Hawk. He will be an ideal leader in this exciting new part of the Seed Hawk story.

This is a winning combination for the future. Seed Hawk and Väderstad have always shared a passion for agriculture and a vision of innovation that is relevant to farmers and the agriculture industry. The deal with Väderstad will allow significant growth at the plant in Langbank, both in manufacturing capacity and in job opportunities at Seed Hawk. We have a great relationship with the Väderstad owners and we know their long-term thinking means that they will continue to build a very strong company in Langbank.

We look forward to many more growing seasons with you.

Thank you,

PAT BEAUJOT Founder & Director, Seed Hawk Inc.

Cruz, the third of four daughters, said it was a challenge for her father. “ ‘Who will take over the farm,’ they asked him. ‘One of the girls,’ he said.”

Cruz went on to study agronomy and is a recognized leader in no-till in her country.

“The European Union asks me to practise safe farming methods that supply them with food, they ask me to reduce the amount of water I use on my crops, they ask me to use less petroleum and control the emissions from my farm,” said Cruz.

“But they have no idea of agriculture and what is involved. When I want to use biotechnology to do these things, they say it is wrong.”

When asked if she had considered protesting and demonstrating to make her point, Cruz said demonstrations have little impact on governments. Farm associations with strong memberships carry much more value.

She works with legislators in her country and the European Union to inform them of new technologies.

“I respect that consumers want a choice, and that is fine,” she said.

“I would like to have a choice as a producer to use the technology or not to. That is all I ask, is for a freedom of choice in my production.”

Santiago Del Solar of Argentina, also part of the panel, outlined the variation of rainfall on his farm and said he has been able to vary his planting season for corn since the introduction of biotechnology and B.t. crops.

“We reduce the risk from excessive heat or flooding because we no longer have to plant in a narrow window to avoid the insect season. We are now much more likely to get a crop and have a decent return.”

Gilbert Arap Bor of Kenya, a small scale corn farmer and professor at the Catholic University of East Africa, said biotechnology has brought advances to his country but along with that come the threats of losing the European market.

“I say we should be developing trade with our neighbours, and if Europe does not want our products, we will find other markets in Africa,” he said.

“They will come to find us when they need our products.”

His comment brought a response from Tanzania’s agriculture policy minister.

“Why do we in Africa allow the Europeans to write our policy? They are banning B.t. crops because they are not ready for them. When it is right economically, they will accept them, but Afr ica is feeling the impacts.”

He said myths about B.t. cotton, such as it reducing a man’s virility, were the type of thing that kept technology from being accepted.

“Consumers say they do not want biotechnology, but when they are sick and want a cure, they accept the work of a scientist, yet they will not accept that reasoning on biotechnology,” Cruz said.

“GMOs seemed to be banned close to an election. Are they more dangerous then?”

FARM SAFETY | RISK MANAGEMENT

Training key to safe work environment Safety services, programs | Provinces have regulations that producers must follow

Mexican workers harvest pumpkins at Lepp Farm’s market gardens at Abbotsford, B.C., earlier this month. Delegates at the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association conference in Quebec Oct. 9-11 were told it’s important for producers to create safety plans and procedures for workers.

Program makes safety a priority Workplace protocols | Injury prevention program helps identify dangers on the farm STORIES BY MARK CARDWELL FREELANCE WRITER

QUEBEC CITY — Yannick Lavoie knows about the difficulties in finding new farm workers.

It’s why he puts a premium on the innovative injury prevention program used on the 4,500-head feedlot he manages in St. Anne de la Pérade, Que. “When a problem occurs between a person and a 1,500-pound animal,

YANNICK LAVOIE FEEDLOT MANAGER

you know who is going to win every time,” Lavoie said in a discussion held during the Canadian Agricul-

tural Safety Association’s annual meeting in Quebec City Oct. 9-11.

“We make sure our new employees understand that and we take the measures needed to keep them safe (and) protect our business.”

Lavoie said new workers at his operation are given a tour of the yard and study written standard operating procedures for every high-risk area where animals are handled.

They can identify safety concerns at

monthly safety meetings.

These protocols were developed with the help of a safety expert under a farm injury prevention program started in 2003 by Quebec’s Union des Producteurs Agricoles.

It features annual inspections and recommendations by certified safety experts on areas as varied as machinery, configuration of work areas, worker education and training.

QUEBEC CITY — The approach to farm safety is marked by regional disparities, but that doesn’t mean producers in different parts of the country can’t learn from one another.

Just ask workplace security expert Glen Blahey.

“No two provinces take the same approach in regards to workplace security,” said Blahey, an agricultural health and safety specialist with the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association and a former farm safety coordinator with the Manitoba labour department’s workplace safety and health branch.

“But for producers everywhere, workplace safety is the same business risk management issue.”

He said Quebec and British Columbia are the most progressive in terms of workplace safety programs available to producers.

Producers in most other provinces, including Ontario and Manitoba, adhere or have access to more general workplace regulations and prevention services and programs.

Alberta is making strides in workplace safety, but Blahey said it remains the only province where producers are liable to civil action if they don’t have a disability coverage plan.

He said that CASA’s annual conferences, which are held in different provinces every year, help cross-pollinate ideas and approaches to farm safety.

“Producers need to hear about the workplace safety and the importance of having a safety plan on their farm at every turn, and making sure that their employees are properly instructed and trained to do the things they are being asked to do,” said Blahey.

“It always amazes me that a farmer who might not give the keys to his new $50,000 truck to his 16-year-old wouldn’t think twice about letting an untrained employee operate his $250,000 combine.”

It’s hard enough finding good employees … but it also takes a lot of time and hands-on training before they are effective. Why risk losing them to injuries that can be prevented with proper planning?

MARTIN MÉTHOT WORKPLACE SECURITY EXPERT

About 500 of the 12,000 farms in Quebec with salaried workers are members of the program, which gives participating producers a reduction in workers compensation premiums.

“An injury is always a dramatic event for the person involved and their loved ones,” said Lavoie.

“But it also results in a loss of performance and profitability for our business. It’s hard enough finding good employees … but it also takes a lot of time and hands-on training before they are effective. Why risk losing them to injuries that can be prevented with proper planning?”

Martin Méthot, a workplace security expert, said new workers cannot be expected to know how to handle machinery or see and understand dangers that more experienced employees know to avoid.

FARM LIVING “There are risks around every corner on a farm.”

He said farm machinery poses a myriad of daily dangers such as rollovers, accidents, moving parts, noxious fumes and loud noises that can affect hearing.

Méthot said producers need to be actively engaged in creating safety plans and procedures for workers, which is doubly important for migrant workers who may not fully understand the language and culture.

“Farms are unique businesses where the owner works side by side with salaried employees on a daily basis,” he said.

“Unlike in a company where the boss works alone behind closed doors, producers have an opportunity to lead by example in terms of workplace security.”

Méthot said failure to do so puts both employees and the business at risk.

ALLERGIES | EPIPEN

Using allergy auto injectors HEALTH CLINIC

tell us how and when to use it, so that more people will know what to do?

A: CLARE ROWSON, MD

Q:

My teenaged son is severely allergic to bees. He ended up in the emergency ward after a bee sting and was prescribed an EpiPen in case he ever got stung again. I am concerned that he may not be able to use it in a panic or that others around may not know how to either. Can you

Many people end up in the emergency department with acute allergic or anaphylactic reactions when use of an auto-injector such as an EpiPen would have saved a lot of grief, or possibly a life.

EpiPens contain a measured dose of epinephrine, which rapidly treats all of the most dangerous symptoms of anaphylaxis, including throat swelling, difficulty breathing and low blood pressure. Antihistamines work too, but often not fast enough to relieve the more life threatening symptoms.

An auto-injector should be used as soon as the person with allergies has trouble breathing, feels tightness in the throat or feels faint and lightheaded. The injection can be made through clothes to save time.

An EpiPen is the most commonly used epinephrine injector in this country. The others are similar but the cap colours may be different.

To administer, open the cap and remove the pen from its carrier tube.

Hold the injector in your dominant hand, making a fist.

Keep fingers away from both ends to avoid pricking them. The end with the orange tip contains the needle and should be facing down.

Use your other hand to pull off the blue safety release.

If it is convenient, pull clothing away from outer upper arm or outer thigh area, otherwise inject through the clothing. To inject, swing and push firmly against the skin or clothing until you hear a click.

The device should be at a 90 degree angle or perpendicular to the thigh.

Hold in place for 10 seconds to allow all the medicine to be injected. The cartridge window will become obscured. Then remove the pen from the thigh. The orange needle cover will extend to automatically cover the needle.

Massage the injected area for 10 seconds. Call 911 in case further treatment is required. Larger sized adults may require a second dose or if symptoms do not improve after five minutes. Do not use the same injector as each machine only contains one dose. EpiPens should come in packages of two.

Properly dispose of the used device by taking it to your local hospital or pharmacy. Do not put it in the garbage.

Clare Rowson is a retired medical doctor in Belleville, Ont. Contact: health@producer.com.

ANAPHYLAXIS Some food and insect bites can trigger a severe reaction known as anaphylaxis. This reaction can cause shock and is life threatening. Signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis include: • Loss of consciousness • Lightheadedness • Severe shortness of breath • A rapid, weak pulse • Skin rash • Nausea and vomiting • Swelling airways, which can block breathing Even if symptoms improve after an emergency epinephrine injection, visit the emergency department to make sure symptoms don’t return when the effects of the injection wear off.

Flexible home schooling | The Wasyliks help on the farm, raising animals and growing produce

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

VERMILION, Alta. — The Wasylik family is like any other on a busy fall day.

They breathe easier now that the crop is harvested, but bushels of apples still need to be turned into cider, jars of jams and pickles are still on the kitchen counter and need to be taken to the cold room, the sauerkraut is in the corner slowly turning from cabbage to kraut and the garden has yet to be cleaned up before snow.

Despite the work remaining before winter, there is a sense of calm in the family that includes three children: Charlotte, 16, Nicholas, 14, and Alexander, 12.

The home-schooled children have yet to start their studies for the year and are able to pitch in and help with harvest.

“It helps to have a very flexible schedule,” said Johanna.

The Wasyliks didn’t set out to home school their children, but a drought in 2002 forced them to sell their cattle, leaving them free to travel. The family spent nine months with Johanna’s family in Nevis, West Indies.

“It was a nice education for everyone,” said Rick.

While in Nevis, Charlotte attended an old-fashioned British-style kindergarten where she was given a solid start to her education.

Instead of repeating the year when they returned to Canada, the Wasyliks opted for home schooling.

“We look at each year as it comes,” said Johanna.

“It seems to be working. The kids are enjoying themselves and learning.”

It’s that freedom from a regular classroom that has allowed the family to take other trips to the West Indies, or to Johanna’s home in New York.

It was also in Nevis, on a later trip, that Charlotte fell in love with birds.

She had noticed the colourful American gold finch at the feeders at her Vermilion home, but the Caribbean island was full of birds with bright plumage, and she was soon hooked on birds.

Charlotte recently returned from six weeks at the Long Point Bird Observatory, a research and bird monitoring station in Ontario focused on the conservation of birds and their habits.

Birding has become an obsession for Charlotte since she spied the American gold finch at age 11. She now takes part in the local Christmas bird count and the May bird count of returning birds and has started her own Alberta Birds Facebook page, with 600 followers.

Charlotte counted 20 species of birds during the last Christmas bird count and identified 75 to 80 birds when they returned in May. The toughest birds to identify are gulls, which can look different depending on their age.

“It takes a lot of practice. I just kept looking at bird books and memorizing,” said Charlotte.

Charlotte started a bird blog during a trip to the West Indies in 2011 as a way to record her bird sightings in a more permanent location and document the sightings. It also has a large following of bird enthusiasts.

Johanna said the birding community has welcomed Charlotte into their fold and are willing to share their knowledge with the young birder.

While her younger brothers complain about her bird chatter, they occasionally ask Charlotte the name of birds they see fly past the farm.

Charlotte’s next wish list trip is the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to study birds and other wildlife.

Having children with a flexible schedule also helps with the family’s certified organic farm, where the family raises barley, oats, cattle, eggs, broilers, turkeys and hay.

Rick didn’t grow up on a farm, but

he spent a lot of time on his grandparents’ and relatives’ nearby farm, was in three 4-H beef clubs and always knew farming was still in his blood.

“It’s fun. There are so many ways to use your abilities on a farm,” he said.

With only a small farm, and Rick working full time in his construction business, the Wasyliks knew they couldn’t compete with large conventional farmers.

Instead, they chose to be organic. It was during a trip to an organic food market in Herefordshire, England, that the couple realized the potential for organics on their small farm.

The couple chose to raise their children on the farm instead of Johanna’s New York City home.

While their Vermilion home is different than Johanna’s private school life in New York, the family believes they have plenty of opportunities living in central Alberta.

It’s not uncommon for the family to drive to Edmonton or Vermilion for a play or even look at the slough across their road for a natural history lesson.

When a pipeline recently went through the slough, the family took an interest, and Charlotte joined the biologists in the amphibian relocation program.

She also joined biologists in identifying birds in the area before the pipeline came through.

It’s those kind of opportunities the family tries to take advantage of as one more way of living and learning on the farm.

FARM LIVING RECIPES | PASTA

Pasta dishes: quality carbohydrates at work TEAM RESOURCES

SARAH GALVIN, BSHEc

Clockwise from left: Spaghetti aglio e olio, sweet potato gnocchi and stuffed pasta shells are family favourites. | SARAH GALVIN PHOTOS

Add your favourite vegetables to pasta for a healthy, filling meal

P

asta is rich in B vitamins, keeping the skin, blood cells and nervous, immune and digestive systems healthy. Many pastas are also enriched with iron.

It is a quality carbohydrate made with durum that digests slowly and keeps you feeling satisfied longer and a quick meal to prepare. Add vegetables, meat and cheese to the sauce for a balanced meal with many variations.

How to Boil Pasta Bring water to a full boil. The standard ratio is one quart (1 L) of water for every 1/4 pound (250 g) of pasta.

Do not add oil to the water. If the pasta is slick with oil, the sauce won’t stick.

Salt boiling water, using kosher rather than iodized salt. The standard ratio is one tablespoon (15 mL) for every two quarts (2 L) water. Stir pasta after adding to boiling water and stir frequently until cooked.

The length of time to cook depends upon how it will be served. If tossing with oil or an uncooked sauce, cook all the way to al dente (to the tooth).

You can bite through the pasta without any grit inside the noodle and it’s also not soggy.

When serving with a cooked sauce, drain the noodles just before al dente. If baking the pasta dish, leave them more firm. Reserve about a cup of the pasta water to thin the sauce, if necessary. The starch in the water will thicken and improve the texture.

Do not rinse cooked pasta unless the recipe calls for it. The starch helps the sauce cling to it. Rinsing can make the pasta soggy and dilute the flavour of the sauce.

For best flavour, don’t serve it in a heap. If you are cooking the pasta in the sauce, do not stir a lot. That will turn the pasta into mush.

SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI WITH SAGE BROWN BUTTER Gnocchi are dumplings served throughout Italy and usually made with potatoes. Sweet potatoes are a nice change.

FARM LIVING 2 tbsp. finely grated 30 mL Parmesan cheese pinch of nutmeg salt and pepper to taste 2 c. all purpose 500 mL flour (approximately) 1/2 c. unsalted butter 125 mL 2 tbsp. chopped fresh 60 mL sage leaves 2 slices prosciutto, chopped, optional freshly grated Parmesan cheese Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C). Prick sweet potatoes with a fork, wrap in foil and place in oven on a baking sheet.

Bake until tender, about one hour.

When done, remove foil and cool to room temperature. Remove skin, mash and stir in ricotta, nutmeg, Parmesan, salt and pepper.

Add flour, 1/2 cup (125 mL) at a time, gently mixing with a fork or your hands. Continue adding flour until it becomes a dough that you can roll into ropes. You want a soft dough. Don’t add more flour than necessary or the gnocchi will be tough and doughy.

Cut off a piece of dough and roll into a half inch (3 cm) thick rope on a well floured surface. Cut rope into one inch (5 cm) pieces.

Roll each gnocchi across the back of fork tines and set on a parchment lined baking sheet. Place them in freezer until ready to use. If not using right away, place the frozen gnocchi in a tightly sealed freezer bag. They will keep in the freezer up to three months.

To serve, bring a large pot of water to a full boil and add salt. Add gnocchi and cook. When they float, they are done. Drain and serve with sauce.

Sauce: Browned butter is also called beurre noisette. It is simple but the flavour is complex. The aromas are a nutty caramel and slightly sweet. Melt butter in saucepan and continue to heat until it turns brown but does not burn. Strain to remove milk solids and return butter to pan.

Add prosciutto and saute until almost crispy, then add sage leaves.

Toss with boiled gnocchi and serve.

Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan.

her husband, Alfredo Converso, operate from their farm home east of Canora.

But he and his girlfriend arrived, supper was served, and the hosts left them alone to eat.

“How was everything?” they asked, returning to clear dishes.

“It was perfect,” the guest replied, sounding much more relaxed. “She said yes.”

Not all the guests come to this B & B with romantic pursuits in mind, but it’s easy to see why they might.

From the great room, where the proposal took place, the land gently slopes to the Whitesand River. A large and graceful willow tree dominates the huge yard, which is soon to include a two-acre garlic field.

It already contains vegetables, flowers, grapes and herbs, which Converso uses in his many recipes.

The work involved is immense but worthwhile. They have seen the stress melt away from their guests since they opened two years ago.

This is Osachoff ’s home. She was raised just down the road and has lived on this particular land east of Canora since 1984. Currently, she is acting chief executive officer of Crossroads Credit Union in Canora.

Converso, as his name and penchant for cooking suggest, was raised in Italy’s Puglia region and came to Canada in the mid-1960s.

By a happy coincidence, La Campagna means company in the language of Osachoff’s Russian heritage and countryside in his.

The name reflects what they strive for: to make their guests feel part of their family and their country home.

They are apparently doing a good job: La Campagna was selected one of the top 10 bed and breakfasts in the province this year by guests who filled out comment cards.

However, they didn’t start out to open a bed and breakfast.

“We wanted space for the kids,” said Osachoff.

Three sons, a daughter and a granddaughter live from Vancouver to Montreal. So between July 2007 and April 2008 they added on to the small farm home and renovated to add the great room and two suites. One suite is a walkout from the lower level, next to what Converso uses as a summer kitchen.

The other is on the main floor but separate from the communal space.

However, they then needed to decide what to do with all the space CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION | COMPLAINT PROCEDURE

Reporting workplace abuse will improve lives of everyone SPEAKING OF LIFE

JACKLIN ANDREWS, BA, MSW

Q:

My daughter recently walked off her job because of the verbal abuse she received from her immediate supervisor. Apparently his abuse is acceptable behaviour in the company but I know that it is not right. Rumour has it that the supervisor has more than once abused

his wife and that he verbally abused other women who have since left the company. The management of the company just sweeps these problems under the rug and hires replacement workers for those who have left.

Something needs to change. Where in Alberta can my daughter go to lay a complaint?

A:

Workplace abuse is in many ways similar to the abuse seen on playgrounds when children are bullying each other around the sandbox. The bully is concerned about his ranking in the social hierarchy and is trying to impress other children.

One of the most effective antidotes to playground bullying is social isola-

tion. In other words, the resolution for bullying is encouraging other children to ignore the bully, leaving him out of group activities. This ultimately confuses and inhibits the bully.

The same is true in the workplace setting. Your daughter’s supervisor is trying to attract someone’s attention. He is not likely to change until his environment changes. The company needs a workplace makeover.

The best option for your daughter is the Human Rights Commission.

With the exception of British Columbia, all Canadian provinces have such commissions. British Columbia has a Human Rights Tribunal that will adjudicate workplace problems but it will not investigate them.

If the commission agrees to help

your daughter, it might lead to a workplace study to determine how toxic working conditions are for women employed by the company.

It has the ability to apply sanctions if it thinks that the company needs to be encouraged to add sensitivity to its employee relations programs.

Before your daughter goes to the commission, she should formally document the abuse. The more specific she can be, the easier it is for the commission to do its job.

Her document will be more readily accepted if it ignores rumours of the supervisor abusing his wife and other women. Those are issues for the courts.

She also needs to clarify what she hopes to gain by stepping forward

with her concerns. Would she like her job back in the company? Would she like a financial settlement to compensate her for her losses when she had to leave and find other employment?

Would she like to see changes that would lead to a more sensitive working environment for everyone?

Nothing is going to change unless your daughter or someone who has been in her position steps up and complains to the right people.

That may seem to be unfair to your daughter but it is a small price to pay for helping your community evolve into a more rewarding and satisfying home for everyone.

when the kids weren’t visiting?

The B & B opened in May 2011.

“We’ve had great support from Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and repeat people from Kansas City,” said Osachoff.

Peak season for guests is May to the end of August, which is also when Converso is tending the garden and canning tomatoes, drying herbs and preparing for winter eating.

An aficionado of the slow food movement, he isn’t a classically trained chef but says he must have learned something about cooking from his mother.

“I grew up in a two-room house,” he said. “You were either in the kitchen or the bedroom, so I was in the kitchen. I must have absorbed something.”

Converso has earned rave reviews for his homemade pasta and Italian menus. The couple caters occasionally, usually on-site, for up to 40 people. They accommodate special dietary and menu requests. One of the more unusual was a request for lobster ravioli.

He said the need for good quality garlic, and the possibility of selling it, has led to the new venture. The garlic will be considered natural. Although he will be growing it organically, it won’t be certified.

Guests are welcome to roam the property, pick berries or pull a weed or two. Osachoff and Converso are hoping to arrange canoeing on the river and horseback riding in the summer and snowshoeing and crosscountry skiing in the winter.

“Our experience is that people mainly come here to chill,” he said.

One guest came to recover from a health issue. A business traveller stays every few weeks. Couples are often seeking to reconnect, and some simply want peace and quiet.

“Honestly, we can say we have not had one bad experience,” said Osachoff.

Most who arrive as guests leave as friends.

READERS’ LETTERS | HOUSEHOLD HINTS HELPFUL

Reader appreciates Emmie Oddie’s recipes, advice Western Producer readers have moulded the farms, villages, towns and cities throughout the West into the rich, vibrant communities we see today.

We’ve enjoyed being there alongside for the past 90 years.

As part of 90th anniversary celebrations, our Tell Us Your Story project invites readers to share their memories and connections.

VERNA BOEHM SASKATOON

W

hen Ernie and I were married in 1960, we received The Western Producer for free because Ernie shipped grain to the pool.

We already received the Saskatoon Star Phoenix, but I hadn’t seen a weekly paper since growing up on the farm where my family received the Free Press Prairie Farmer.

Anyway, here we were with the WP arriving in our home each week, and I liked it. It was an arrangement that became more comfortable with the passing of years, so when we had to pay for it, we bought it.

I think it began costing $5 for two years. Then it went gradually up and up until it was as now, 53 years later, about $90 per year including taxes.

One of the big features in the WP for me was Emmie Oddie’s I’d Like to Know page. Here were recipes submitted by prairie people that

Emmie tested in her own kitchen.

Here were household hints, letters from readers with requests for information and hints of their own.

In the pre-television days, this was the where-to-go page for canning, sewing, gardening, care of house plants and more.

Emmie was powerful and amazing in the life of prairie folk. She always started her page with a chatty essay about how her week went with those personal glimpses into the lives of her husband and children, Langford, Bill, Rosemary, and later, grandchildren. How eagerly I read her page. It is sadly ironic but perhaps fitting that the WP would celebrate 90 years of publication at the same time that Emmie would pass into eternity three years short of 100.

Emmie encouraged people to push on and have dreams and goals.

She cited people like Nellie McClung, Violet McNaughton and

others as role models. The women’s movement was important. To improve the role of women was to improve the role of human kind.

There are many other appealing features in the WP. Ernie always enjoyed the classifieds and had a special interest in stationary engines and all retired machinery that might be parked in the trees in some remote part of a farm site.

Western People was popular in our house with the bird watcher page and the pictures and biographies of talented and interesting people.

These are some of the ways that the WP has worked its way into our lives over 50 plus years.

In 2012 at the Saskatoon Exhibition, we stopped at The Western Producer booth.

The person in charge said, “have you ever thought of subscribing to The Western Producer?”

We said, “we have had a subscription for 52 years.”

“That’s a long time,” was the reply.

We agreed and said, “and I don’t suppose we’ll be cancelling anytime soon. You see, the old Western Producer just might be the glue that’s holding this very satisfactory marriage together.”

AFRICA | ANIMAL DISEASES

Activists jeopardize livestock vaccine use An anti-vaccine movement may hinder Canadian research project targeting African animal diseases

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

A Canadian-financed project to develop vaccines to inoculate livestock in sub-Saharan Africa against infectious diseases could produce results within three years, says the project leader.

However, anti-vaccination politics could delay or stymie their introduction.

Celebrated Canadian researcher Lorne Babiuk leads a project that uses advanced DNA technology to develop vaccine antidotes to deadly and destructive African animal diseases such as Rift Valley Fever, West Nile Virus and lumpy skin disease.

Babiuk, the former head of the Veterinary Infectious Disease Organization (now the Vaccine Infectious

Cattle traders wait for customers at a livestock market in Mogadishu, Somalia, Oct. 15. Vaccination research further south in sub-Saharan regions could have wide reaching effects in reducing common livestock diseases throughout Africa. | REUTERS/ISMAIL TAXTA PHOTO Disease Organization) in Saskatoon, is now vice-president of research at the University of Alberta and part of the agriculture, life and environment faculty.

He said during a lecture in Ottawa Oct. 8 that success would save the economy of southern African billions of dollars, reduce human illness and economic side-effects and protect European and North Americans from spread of the diseases.

“Depending on the funding, we’ll hopefully have the vaccines devel-

oped in another three years, but then it depends on how long the regulatory and other aspects lasts,” he said in an interview following his speech to the International Development Research Centre, which funds the work.

“That’s out of our hands.”

However, the “regulatory and other aspects” part of the project is the greatest problem.

Babiuk complained that anti-vaccination activists in North America, Western Europe and Africa are the

greatest threat to seeing the results of the work save lives.

“The science is the easy part,” he said.

“I wouldn’t say we’ve lost the battle.

It’s a battle we have to continue to fight, but the anti-vaccine lobby group is really quite strong and they have all kinds of reasons why vaccines won’t work or are bad. That’s the challenge we have: how do we contain that very small but vocal group who then convince the less informed to start questioning.”

Babiuk leads a group of scientists that stretches from the U of A and VIDO to the University of Manitoba and scientists in the South African capital of Pretoria.

The project, which creates vaccines built from the DNA profile of diseases, began two years ago when IDRC agreed to invest $2 million.

“Without IDRC, this wouldn’t be happening,” he said.

He hopes the private sector begins to invest once the commercialization potential is in sight.

AG NOTES JUNIOR GARDENERS RAISE FUNDS Thirty-five children have raised $3,215 for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank’s Acres of Hope growing project in Rivers, Man., by selling fresh produce and home-baked goods.

Esther Krahn and her nine grandchildren, who had previously raised money for the foodgrains bank by selling corn, led the sale during three days in August.

Krahn said they were helped by the local 4-H club, which assisted at the sale and donated baked goods.

Fifteen families were involved in the sale.

Most of the children involved were from the Rivers Baptist Church, but others in the community also participated. Among them was eight-year-old Sera Gilbert, who got

involved after seeing the first week of the market.

“I asked if I could work here for the next two sales because I wanted to help others who have no food,” she said.

Every child had a job to do at the market. Toddlers helped older children put produce into bags for sale, while older children served customers.

The Acres of Hope growing project is one of more than 200 across Canada that raises money for the foodgrains bank every year.

PULSE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR APPOINTED The Manitoba Pulse Growers Association has hired Larry Taylor as its executive director.

The association’s current executive director, Roxanne Lewko, is going on

a one-year maternity leave beginning in January.

Taylor obtained his masters of science in agriculture from the University of Manitoba and his masters of business administration from the Olin School of Business in St. Louis, Missouri.

He spent 22 years in various positions of increasing responsibility with Monsanto, including research and development manager, product development manager, director of growth and business development, and technology director of biotechnology and seed.

Since 2002, Taylor has worked at Technology Focus Inc., an agricultural consulting firm.

COLLECTING THE CORN

SUGAR | AMERICAN EXPORTS

U.S. sugar plans worry Canadians Export rules changed | United States expected to increase the amount of raw sugar it can export

The Canadian Sugar Institute is urging the federal government to challenge a U.S. decision to deal with its domestic sugar surplus by sending subsidized sugar into world markets.

Institute president Sandra Martin said the United States plans to send

200,000 tonnes of subsidized domestic sugar into the world market over the next six to nine months, some of it possibly destined for Canada.

“This is a backward step, and we are asking the government to request consultations at the WTO (World Trade Organization),” she said.

A large domestic crop in the U.S., coupled with increased imports from Mexico, means the Americans face the prospect of a large domestic sugar surplus that under law the government would have to buy and store to get it off the market and stabilize prices.

Marsden said the American government has instead decided to change the rules around what is called its “re-export credit exchange.”

Refiners have traditionally been allowed to import raw sugar for refining and then re-export on a one-toone basis: a tonne of cane import gives the company a credit to export a tonne of refined sugar.

The U.S. now says three tonnes can be exported for every tonne imported. The other two would be from the domestic stockpile, produced with farm bill subsidies.

Meanwhile, last week Canadian sugar exporters were also being affected by the shutdown of the U.S. federal government, the result of political stalemate in Washington.

The U.S. is allowing 8,294 tonnes of global sugar imports this year, which it allots to individual countries.

Canada’s share of the quota was 28.6 percent last year, but it doesn’t know what this year’s share will be because the U.S. government employees who administer the quota had been laid off due to the shutdown. The U.S. government has since reached a deal and workers have returned, but it is not known how quickly they will be able to work through the backlog and announce the quota shares.

A 12,050 quota for beet sugar is not affected.

Kathleen Sullivan, executive director of the Canadian Agri-food Trade Alliance, said Oct. 11 that agricultural exporters with unfettered access to the U.S. market have not been affected.

“In general, for those products that are traded freely between Canada and the U.S., the shutdown appears up to now to have had no significant impact on the administration, clearance and transportation of shipments to the U.S.,” she said in an email.

“This is not the case for products that are still subject to quotas and rely on quota administration, most notably sugar.”

“The crop circles are from me worrying about this year’s crops.”

ANIMAL WELFARE | HOG HOUSING

Barn conversion model looks at costs, benefits Pilot project | Two producers will convert their barns to group sow housing to determine the most cost effective design

BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Converting hog barns to allow for group sow housing won’t be simple or cheap.

However, the University of Manitoba and Saskatoon’s Prairie Swine Centre hope to make the process easier for producers.

As part of a joint initiative that started this fall, officials are working with two large but undisclosed hog producers in Saskatchewan and Manitoba to develop blueprints for conversion, using a model developed by the U of M. “They’re businesses that both know that they want to look at options for the future,” said Helen Thoday of the Prairie Swine Centre.

“Currently, no one is really making any financial decisions whether to convert or not because the code is still unknown.”

The project is getting underway as some restaurant chains move toward eliminating sow confinement from their supply chain and as Canada inches toward a new code for managing pigs.

It considers the existing dimensions, infrastructure and pig numbers of a facility and provides producers with options for floor plans and feeding systems and offers a cost estimate.

The intent is to help producers identify the most cost-effective way to convert barns to group housing using existing infrastructure: slats, drainage systems and slurry pits.

Officials will be using the pilot barns to fine-tune the model, identify the positives and negatives of each option and document producers’ concerns about converting.

More detailed blueprints will be drawn up with engineers once the producers choose a plan.

Their experiences may be valuable to other producers, said Thoday.

With costs running as high as $1,000 per animal, a conversion could potentially top $2 million, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution.

“Generally, buildings haven’t had much reinvestment done on them, which is a standard thing that happens in all of the livestock industry when no one is making any money,” said Thoday. “If you have a really old house, if you start poking about it, sometimes it’s more problematic than bulldozing it down and starting again. I think some of these barns will have the same problems.”

Flooring, concrete and the design and size of existing slurry pits are major concerns and a potential expense, said Laurie Connor, a researcher with the U of M. “Certainly if you get into any type of situation where you have to tear up any of the concrete to enlarge pits … it becomes tremendously expensive,” she said.

Connor expects the U of M model will remain viable under an

HELEN THODAY PRAIRIE SWINE CENTRE

updated pig code.

“We wanted to ensure as we progressed with it over the past couple of years that we were in line with what we thought was going to be occurring with the code and certainly from what I’ve seen from the code so far, we are.”

Reformers hail limit on U.S. crop insurance subsidies WASHINGTON, D.C. (Reuters) — Fa r m s u b s i d y re f o r m e r s hav e praised a vote by the U.S. House of Representatives to make the wealthiest growers pay more for federally subsidized crop insurance.

It is the first eligibility limit on a program that costs $9 billion a year.

The non-binding House vote Oct. 11 will be a factor in upcoming negotiations with the Senate on a final version of the new farm bill, which is a year overdue.

Senators put a similar restriction on farmers with more than $750,000 adjusted gross income a year in their bill.

One percent of farmers, or 20,000 people, would be affected by the provision, estimated to save $1.3 billion over 10 years.

Crop insurance is the costliest part of the farm safety net. The farm bill would expand the program by up to 10 percent while cutting conservation and food stamps for the poor.

Farm bill negotiations were expected to begin soon, although no date was set.

The House named 29 of its members as its conferees on the $500 billion, five-year farm bill Oct. 12.

Farm bills, written every few years, fund crop subsidies, conservation, public nutrition, food aid, research, agricultural exports and rural economic development programs.

Crop insurance reform was the only farm bill “instruction” approved by the House during a series of votes that cleared the way for negotiations with the Senate.

The “sense of the House” resolution, approved on a voice vote, is an

indication of lawmaker sentiment but conferees are not bound by it.

To reform-minded groups, the House vote was a step to rein in subsidy spending and help family farmers.

WORLD IN BRIEF SWEET TOOTH?

Louis Dreyfus sugar buy vexes market

INDIA’S ECONOMY

Food prices drive up Indian inflation NEW DELHI (Reuters) Inflation in India unexpectedly hit a sevenmonth high in September as food prices climbed, increasing the odds for yet another central bank interest rate hike even as the economy stumbles through its worst crisis since 1991.

The wholesale price index, India’s main inflation measure, climbed to 6.46 percent last month — its fastest rate since February — pushed up by food prices such as a 322 percent jump in onion prices, government data showed Oct. 14.

NEW YORK (Reuters) — Louis Dreyfus Corp. has bought nearly 1.9 million tonnes of raw and refined sugar in recent weeks in a buying spree worth about $750 million US that has thrown further confusion into a market roiled by excess supplies.

One of the world’s biggest sugar merchants was the sole buyer last week of the 1.49 million tonnes of raw sugar in the largest ICE Futures U.S. exchange delivery in at least 24 years.

That came on the heels of the purchase of 313,150 tonnes of refined sugar through London’s Liffe

exchange just weeks earlier.

Between those purchases and another deal to buy 60,000 tonnes of Thai sugar for delivery in July through September 2014, Louis Dreyfus has bought roughly $750 million worth of sweetener in the last month, based on futures prices and reported premiums.

EUROPEAN HARVEST

Rain hampers sugar beet harvest LONDON, U.K. (Reuters) — Rain has complicated sugar beet harvesting in key European countries, and could lead to lower production this year, according to industry groups and analysts.

Wet weather has delayed beet

harvesting in Russia and Ukraine, while output looks set to be lower this year in France, Germany and Poland, they said.

Russia had harvested 21 million tonnes of sugar beets from 55 percent of the sown area or from 1.2 million acres as of Oct. 14, down from 23.4 million tonnes a year ago, agriculture ministry data showed.

At the same date a year ago, 1.5

million acres were completed.

France is also heading towards a below-average sugar beet harvest after crops failed to recover from a poor start to the growing season during a cool, damp spring.

In Germany, a smaller sugar beet crop is expected after beets suffered from prolonged winter weather in early 2013 and a cool spring, which delayed plantings and beet growth.

SUBSIDY COMPLAINT

EU halts anti-subsidy biodiesel import probe PARIS (Reuters) — The European Union Commission has decided to halt an anti-subsidy probe into biodiesel imports from Argentina and Indonesia after the complainant dropped its action, a Commission document seen by Reuters showed last week.

The Commission had received on September 27 a complaint from the European biodiesel lobby group EBB over an alleged unfair subsidizing of biodiesel imports from Argentina and Indonesia.

The EBB withdrew its complaint on October 7, the commission said.

“In accordance with article 14 (1) of the basic regulation the proceeding may be terminated where the complaint is withdrawn, unless such termination may not be in the Union’s interest,” the document said.

This is a separate procedure from a proposal from the European Commission to extend antidumping duties against imports of biodiesel from Argentina and Indonesia, accused of selling the product into the bloc at unfairly low prices.

ENERGY RENEWAL | FORGE HYDROCARBONS

Energy firm set to turn used oil, grease into fuel

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

A pilot plant that turns old grease, lard and canola oil into gas and diesel was so successful that a University of Alberta spin-off company will soon begin commercializing the product.

Forge Hydrocarbons will use the patented process, which was designed by U of A researcher David Bressler, to turn the renewable feedstocks into “drop-in fuel” without the expensive process and 50 million years it takes to create fossil fuel.

The new fuel could replace ethanol and biodiesel, which require special handling.

“We’re making a little biorefinery here. We can make all the different cuts, just like a barrel of oil would be,” Bressler said after the announcement of the scaled up process, which will produce 200 to 400 million litres of fuel a year.

Bressler, a former oilsands scientist, used his knowledge of the energy industry to turn used oil and grease into an environmentally friendly and inexpensive fuel additive.

The triglycerides in fats and oils look similar to energy hydrocarbon but with an acid group attached.

Using the right combination of high temperature and pressure, Bressler has found a way to remove the acid group and break down the long molecular chain created from the fat and oil into solvent, gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.

“We’re able to use very ugly oil. We don’t just have to use nice clean canola oil. We can use brown greases or tall oil from the forestry sector,” he said.

“I think we can undercut the price quite severely of biodiesel and create a better, superior product. I believe we could absorb all the fats and oils that are produced globally that aren’t going into the food system. We love that kind of stuff. It’s ugly and no one can use it, and it’s cheap.”

Bressler said one forestry company estimates that directing tall oil to an on-site refinery can cut its diesel fuel use in half.

He said 1.5 billion gallons of brown grease from restaurants is disposed of in landfills every year.

“This is a highly scalable technology,” he said.

“It’s a highly renewable fuel, but it still has the high value chemical sides to it. At the same time, we’re not in a food versus fuel versus feed debate.

We don’t need to use those seed stocks. That being said, if there was a bad year and there was off spec canola, we could do something with it. We would be happy to take it.”

Bressler began his work in 2003, and was perfecting the process by 2006. He has focused on scaling up production in the last two years.

Bressler confirmed that Forge Hydrocarbons is talking about licensing the technology with one of Canada’s largest ethanol producers, one of Canada’s largest biodiesel producers, the largest U.S. biodiesel producer and several multinational energy companies.

However, he said he couldn’t identify the companies.

“It’s a bit of a bidding war. It is pretty cool. We’re moving down that path pretty quickly now. Basically we’ve

been quiet till yesterday. This is a 10 year overnight success.”

Forge Hydrocarbons president Tim Haig, left Biox, an Ontario based biodiesel facility, to join forces with Bressler to bring the technology to production.

Bressler said they envision a series of smaller plants with the capability of producing 20 to 40 million litres of product. Some facilities would have several plants in parallel, depending on the scale required.

He hopes the new company will begin commercial production by the end of next year.

SHIPPING | LAKER-SIZED VESSELS

CWB expects new ships on Great Lakes next year

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Two new laker-sized vessels being built for CWB by a Chinese shipbuilder will likely be working on the Great Lakes by next year.

Construction of the new lakers is underway in China with completion of the first ship slated for late 2013 or early 2014.

“There have been slight delays with regards to the shipyards in China, but those vessels are being built,” said CWB president Ian White during an Oct. 17 conference call.

“We do expect that the first of the CWB vessels will be delivered to us …

around about the end of this year and the second vessel will be a couple or a few months after that.”

The CWB lakers were part of a larger ship order placed in 2011 that also included six vessels to be owned by Algoma Central Corp. and Upper Lakes Group.

The CWB investment, originally e s t i mat e d at $ 6 5 m i l l i o n , w a s approved by farmer elected CWB directors just months before federal legislation was passed to end the wheat board’s single desk marketing powers.

The first ship will be delivered to CWB in China around the end of 2013 and is expected to arrive in

Canada in early 2014.

The trip from China to Canada is expected to take about eight weeks.

Algoma has reached an agreement with CWB to operate the ships on the grain company’s behalf.

The vessels will haul grain, oilseeds and other cargo and will operate alongside other ships in Algoma’s expanded Great Lakes fleet.

“We do expect to have the first (CWB) vessel in service for the full season on the lakes next year and the second for at least part of the season,” White said.

The purchase of two laker-sized vessels created a stir in 2011, largely because of its timing.

When CWB announced the deal in early 2011, a majority of CWB directors were vocally opposed to Ottawa’s plan to eliminate single desk marketing, a move that was widely anticipated by the Canadian grain industry.

Despite uncertainty surrounding the CWB’s future, wheat board directors approved the $65 million expenditure, suggesting the vessels would save the board $10 million per year in reduced shipping costs.

At the time, wheat board directors said the expenditure would be spread over four years and be financed with a $13 million down payment taken from CWB pool accounts.

In the Oct. 17 conference call, White did not say how much is still owing on the ships.

Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz said in November 2011 that Ottawa had no intention of cancelling the CWB order but instead would allow the ships to be built and then sell them to recoup the costs.

“It would cost more to cancel than to recoup so the best advice we have is to let the contract revolve and at some point let it be known they will be for sale,” Ritz told reporters at the time.

“We’ll do it in the best interests of farmers so they don’t get caught.

We’ll do our damnedest to make sure the pool monies don’t get pirated.”

Establishing swine welfare chair gains sector interest

BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Industry fundraising has reached the crucial halfway mark in its target to establish a national chair in swine welfare.

Sandra Edwards, professor and chair of agriculture at Newcastle University in the United Kingdom, has been selected to fill the position.

Edwards has worked in research for 30 years and has won numerous awards. She has also served as senior adviser on industry and government advisory groups.

Edwards brings research and on‐ farm experience in the areas of nutrition, applied behaviour and health management. A sample of her research can be found at www.prairieswine. com.

She will be a keynote speaker at the Saskatchewan Pork Industry Symposium in Saskatoon in November.

Earlier this month, she was the keynote speaker at a sustainable food management summit in Guelph, Ont., where she shared her experience and perspectives on setting and implementing animal welfare standards as well as emerging issues and perspectives in Europe.

The proposed swine welfare chair position has been gaining momentum.

Six provincial pork associations and four pork processors have committed to the five-year program to develop a team of researchers focusing on swine welfare.

The chair application will soon be submitted to the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council as an industrial research chair.

That program, which benefits industry development of applied and early discovery research, provides 50-50 matching funds to the industry for approved research programs.

For more information, contact Prairie Swine Centre president Lee Whittington at 306‐667‐7447 or Lee. whittington@usask.ca.

SEALED & GREASED EXCAVATOR CHAINS Excavator links are lubricated using “Extreme Pressure Synthetic Grease” and fitted with the latest style Polyurethane Seal Groups tomaximize lubrican retention and insure long life.

SEALED & LUBRICATED DOZER/LOADER CHAINS Lubricated Dozer Chains are sealed with Polyurethane Seals and Metal rings to extend operating life and to eliminate the possibility of dry joints between “west turns”.

FORGED LINKS ITR Links are forged from Boron Steel, quenched, tempered, and induction hardened using the latest automated link hardening equipment to ensure excellent wear resistance under even the most severe working conditions.

PINS & BUSHINGS Pins and bushings are critical to track chain wear life and are manufactured and dimensionally matched to ensure a perfect fit and sealing and joint integrity. Outside Surface Hardness is > Rockwell C58 to a depth of > 4mm with a core hardness of > Rockwell C34.

CHAIN ASSEMBLY Lubricated Chains are assembled on fully automated chain assembly lines.

Seal installation, Plug introduction and Oil fill quantities are 100% computer controlled and every joint is individually pressure tested to eliminate the possibility of leakage during working conditions.

Min / Max interference fit tolerances between the Pins, Bushings and Links are maintained automatically by min/max press force specifications.

This process minimizes link breakage and

pin/bushing drifting.

GENETIC MODIFICATION | ALFALFA

First GM alfalfa varieties receive approval Only for Eastern Canada | At least five varieties are registered for commercial use, but plans have yet to be finalized

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canada’s first Roundup Ready alfalfa crops could take root in Ontario and Quebec as early as next spring, according to officials from a pair of Canadian seed companies involved in registering and selling the crops.

Documents posted on the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s website confirm that at least five Roundup Ready alfalfa varieties have already been registered for commercial sale and production in Canada.

The first of those lines — WL 373HQ. RR — was registered by the CFIA’s variety registration office April 26.

Four more lines received CFIA approval Aug. 22 and will be marketed under variety names 428RR, Ariad RR, Freedom RR and Mission RR. The Canadian representative for all five varieties is listed as Gold Medal Seeds of Brooks, Alta., a subsidiary of U.S. based Forage Genetics International (FGI), which holds commercial rights to Monsanto’s Roundup Ready alfalfa varieties in Canada.

Canadian distributors for the varieties include Growmark Inc. of Kitchener, Ont., Quality Seeds of Vaughan Ont., Pride Seeds of Chatham Ont., Pickseed Canada of Lindsey, Ont., La Co-op Fédérée of Longueuil Que., and Synagri of Saint-Hyacinthe, Que.

Stephen Denys, vice-president of sales and marketing with Pride Seeds, said Canada’s first commercial plantings of Roundup Ready alfalfa could occur as early as next spring.

“Potentially, but that’s going to depend,” he said.

“We want to make sure that all the stewardship requirements are in (place) before we go to market.”

Denys, a past-president of the Canadian Seed Trade Association, said Pride Seeds will begin selling Freedom RR seed once Monsanto and FGI finalize stewardship agreements that govern the sale and production of Roundup Ready alfalfa seed in Eastern Canada.

He said it is not clear how long it will take for stewardship agreements to be drafted, reviewed and approved.

“I believe Monsanto and Forage Genetics are working on those stewardship agreements,” Denys said.

“That all needs to be in place before the varieties can be commercialized so they won’t be in place this fall, that’s for sure.”

Erick Lutterotti, general manager with Gold Medal Seeds, said spring is more likely.

“I don’t see it being available until probably next spring but that’s going to be up to Forage Genetics and … (the distributors) to decide.”

The introduction of GM alfalfa vari-

The companies involved in the project say they want stewardship plans in place before the varieties are released. | FILE PHOTO eties in Canada has been several years in the making.

Health and environmental approvals have been in place for some time, but officials representing FGI have repeatedly said that the company will not bring the products to market until certain steps are taken. They include industry-wide consultations and the development of a co-existence plan to address the concerns of conventional alfalfa producers, alfalfa seed growers and alfalfa hay and seed exporters.

A co-existence plan, facilitated by the Canadian Seed Trade Association, was released earlier this year.

The plan, which was criticized by environmentalists and organic farmers opposed to GM alfalfa, contained a series of best management practices aimed at limiting the potential for commingling and cross-pollination between GM and non-GM alfalfa crops.

CFIA officials have confirmed that the five RR alfalfa varieties registered in Canada were granted national registration, meaning they can be marketed anywhere in the country.

However, Denys and Lutterotti said there are no plans to expand the sale of GM alfalfa to Western Canada.

Alfalfa growers in the Prairies and

British Columbia would have to demonstrate that adequate demand exists for the product before it is sold in the West, they added.

Stakeholders in the western forage and alfalfa seed industries would also be consulted and a co-existence plan drawn up for western Canadian production.

Denys said the co-existence plan released earlier this year pertains exclusively to the production of GM alfalfa as a hay crop in Eastern Canada.

An FGI spokesperson issued a short statement Oct. 16 confirming that Roundup Ready alfalfa has been approved for use in Canada.

“Forage Genetics International is considering opportunities in Eastern Canada for Roundup Ready alfalfa for use as forage,” said Rebecca Lentz, a corporate communicator with the U.S.-based farmer co-operative Land O’Lakes, the parent company of FGI. “No decision has been made on sales in Canada.”

Lutterotti said Gold Medal Seeds has no plans to sell or distribute Roundup Ready alfalfa.

“We registered the varieties, but all of those varieties will be available for sale in Eastern Canada only,” he said.

All seed production is done in the U.S..… There is no seed production in Canada and none planned … for the near future.”

WORLD FOOD DAY | SPECIAL CROPS

Company eager to expand beneficial niche crops Marigolds, echinacea | Kemlin Industries does business in more than 90 countries, helping producers grow high value crops

BY LES KLETKE FREELANCE WRITER

DES MOINES, Iowa — Plants that produce special oils and nutrients were heralded as a potential solution for western Canadian farmers in the 1990s, when grain prices were reeling from the U.S.-European trade war.

Acres of echinacea and purple cone flowers were planted but the factories to process the components never became a reality, despite the efforts of community development committees across the Prairies.

The industry did develop, just not in Western Canada.

The reality of the industry was brought home recently when farmers from 15 countries visited Kemlin Industries in Des Moines as part of a Global Farmer Roundtable meeting held in conjunction with World Food Day. “Our companies intent is to have a product that reaches half of the world’s population,” said company founder R.W. Nelson. “We are not there yet, but we reach about 1.7 billion people with our molecules, and that is a pretty good start.”

Nelson, who started the company in 1961 with his wife, Mary, has committed to the future with a new facility that houses the core of the company’s research.

“The scientists don’t like it when I say it, but I tell them that we need 10, $50 million products in the next three years to pay for this place” he said.

The company employs 2,000 workers in manufacturing plants in eight countries and conducts business in

more than 90 countries.

The company is growing 24,000 acres of marigolds in India with the help of 12,000 farmers. The flowers are processed for their lutein, which is sometimes called the eye vitamin and aids in the prevention of macular

degeneration.

Canadian representative Gerrid Gust, who farms 16,000 acres near Davidson, Sask., said the possibility of producing marigolds for a company like Kemlin held little promise. He might see increased value in crops by extracting other products from them, but the labour of flower production, especially hand transplanting, would be a problem.

Gabriela Cruz, who farms 2,000 acres in Portugal, was more interested.

“Our country is divided in two by a river,” she said, “In the north, we have small farms and lots of rain. In the

Sask. growth plan going well

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

One bumper crop does not an accomplished goal make, but Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall said this year’s harvest goes a long way toward it.

The growth plan he announced last fall calls for crop production to increase by 10 million tonnes by 2020.

Last year, production was 26.4 million tonnes and this year’s estimates are for more than 30 million tonnes.

“The crop production goals are going to be facilitated not by one great year,” he told reporters after updating the Regina Chamber of Commerce on the plan’s progress.

“That’s helpful, but they’re going to be facilitated by us continuing to lead in terms of crop variety development that focused on quality and yield.”

Wall, who just returned from a trade mission to Southeast Asia, said 30 percent of all Canadian exports to the countries that belong to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations come from Saskatchewan.

Another growth plan goal called for an increase in exports of food and agricultural products from $10 billion in 2011 to $15 billion by 2020.

The total hit $11.2 billion in 2012.

corn or beans in the first year of production and then moves to a blended approach in the second year, when they get a small harvest. By the third year of production they are paid on the biomass that they produce.

“With a crop like rosemary, we realize that producers need to be paid in the first two years, so we work with them to get a fair return,” he said.

“Eighty percent of world production is still clear cut from hillsides that causes tremendous erosion.…

We are trying to change that with managed production that recognizes the life cycle of the plant.”

south, it is dry and the farms are much larger. We could be producing crops like flowers that are of high value.”

Lydia Sasu from Ghana not only thought flower production would work in her country but wondered if Kemlin supplied a seed and fertilizer package because farmers could not afford the cost of quality seed or nutrients for traditional crops.

John Greaves of Kemlin said the company recognizes there is a time lag before harvest with many of the crops it contracts. As a result, it pays producers the amount they might receive from traditional crops such as

TILLAGE | DISC HARROWS

Fall tillage starts with tandem tune-up Keeping everything in harmony | Pulling a poorly adjusted disc harrow is like playing a violin that’s out of tune

BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

Conquering B.t. corn root balls and stalks has become an industry unto itself in the past decade.

The older disc harrows and field cultivators just don’t have the weight or aggressive design to cut, slice and chop the residue of genetically modified corn, says Sunflower Manufacturing tillage specialist Larry Kuster.

“I can recall dozens of conversations with farmers complaining that

their old tillage tools had been working just fine for years,” said Kuster.

“Then all of a sudden they started having trouble with Roundup Ready soybean stubble and B.t. corn stalks.

That precipitated a complete revamping of our entire tillage line. We went heavier, more aggressive and bigger. It wasn’t just Sunflower. The whole industry had to upgrade.”

Discs are among the most significant advances. Heavier implements moving at higher speeds required better discs that kept their edge longer.

Kuster said standard disc thickness

is now 0.25 inch, and most discs are boronized, making them far more durable than previous discs.

“Ingersoll developed the boron process for discs. We just don’t see issues with blades anymore, but they can go dull in time. So Ingersoll developed a grinder that puts a good edge back on the inside of the blade.

They call it the Edge Care System,” he said.

“We have a new blade we call the Sunflower Sabre Blade. It’s exclusive to us from Ingersoll. We put it on our series 600 vertical till tool. Ingersoll

calls it their SoilRazor. It has a serrated edge. Just like a good steak knife, it seems to stay sharp forever.

People think it sharpens itself, but of course that’s not possible. It just seems like it sharpens itself.”

The SoilRazor has a rippled outer diameter that maintains a razorsharp cutting edge. The flutes change shape as the steel in the blade begins to wear down.

The high points become the depressions and the depressions become high spots, always exposing a new sharp edge.

Ingersoll makes two versions of the SoilRazor. The VT is a vertical tillage blade that was developed in Hamilton, Ont., by Krause Corp. Most other vertical tillage blades have rounded edges that let residue escape, but the SoilRazor VT re-mains sharp so it slices the residue before it gets away.

The CT is designed with extreme clod-smashing abilities and extreme residue cutting characteristics in soft soil, which tend to move away under a disc.

Kuster said all types and all brands of

cultivators have one thing in common: they are meant to run level front to back and level left to right.

He said this is important, whether farmers are managing residue or preparing the seed bed, and whether they’re using tandem discs or shovels and sweeps.

A poorly adjusted cultivator wastes fuel, contributes to erosion and is hard on the tillage equipment as well as the seeding rigs, sprayers and harvest implements that will be on the field next year.

“In fall tillage, you’re trying to achieve a smooth, flat field so the planter runs across the surface without bumps or jumps that shake the seeds off the disc,” Kuster said.

“Whether you have positive air like our White planter or a conventional vacuum, you actually can shake the seed off the disc if the field is rough.

Then your singulation and spacing are out the window. The goal should be to achieve a consistent, level soil surface across the entire width of the machine, leaving no ridges or furrows.”

How a machine is set and used has a major impact on a farmer’s goals, he

said. Setup also determines how effective the machine will be at cutting crop residue, sizing it consistently and mixing it into the soil to promote breakdown over the winter.

Although the owner’s manual gives all the infor mation for proper machine setup, Kuster said people tend to put it off until it’s time to get in the field, even though it takes only an hour or two to do the adjustments on most machines.

He said farmers have so many acres they need to cover in the fall that they figure they can’t waste time adjusting the machine.

As a result, they do a bad job. Worse yet, they often do such a bad job they have to make a second pass.

The other excuse is that the machine was working well last time they used it so there’s no need to re-adjust everything.

Kuster said some parts wear and other parts become bent, and the machine may not have been working as well last year as the operator assumed.

He said farmers waste money when they put too much power in front of the tool. The general rule is eight to 10

horsepower per foot pulling a tandem disc harrow at five to six m.p.h., but the design of some new tillage tools allows faster ground speeds.

On the other hand, going faster than the recommended speed creates ridges and furrows and causes tillage tools to bounce, messing up the depth.

It’s important to adjust the tongue to match draw bar height to keep the tillage tool level and moving smoothly through the field. Components such as the draw bar and level lift receive extra down pressure if the tool is operated either nose down or tail down. The goal should be a straight line of draft to the tool.

Purging air from the hydraulic lines is the only way to ensure the wings stay level with the machine’s centre section.

Raise and lower the implement several times to allow the system to cycle fully while the hydraulics are connected to the tractor. Air is more easily compressed than oil, so air in the hydraulic lines can allow the wings to sag.

“If the operator is in a hurry and doesn’t bring it to a full lift, then the hydraulic system won’t phase properly,” Kuster said.

“It can build up pressure and that will mess up your side to side level. If the cylinder sags one-third inch, for example, that could allow the wing to drop approximately one inch. That is significant when the tillage depth you’re working toward is only five or six inches.”

The wider the machine, the more important it is to level it from side to side and from front to back so it works at a consistent depth without gouging or ridging. This allows the machine to handle crop residue with less bunching or plugging.

Height of the wings and centre frames should be consistent from side to side. Checking means lowering the tool to the ground and stopping the drop when the disc blades almost touch the soil.

Measure from the bottom of the frame to the centre of the pivot pin on the walking tandem, or the top of the wheel spindle if a single or dual wheel is present. The measurements should be the same.

To ensure the integrity of the centre lift components, check the centresection wheels left and right. Now set the wings at identical depths by measuring from the bottom of the frame to the top of the wheel spindle or pivot pin of the walking tandem.

Adjust the measurements accordingly if wings wheels are smaller than the main transport wheels.

“The great thing about this method is the operator can use it at the shop or in the field. You don’t need a level slab of cement,” Kuster said.

As a preliminary adjustment, the

THE WESTERN PRODUCER | WWW.PRODUCER.COM | OCTOBER 24, 2013

fore-aft level should be set so the front and rear blades are an equal distance from the ground.

Travel 300 feet in the field with the tool lowered in the working position and then stop to see if the fore and aft level is still correct.

To be sure soil is flowing properly through the unit, inspect the soil at the centre rear where it’s returned by the rear gangs. It will produce a complete and level fill of the valley cut by the front gangs when the front to rear level is correct.

The rear of the tool is too high if a valley depression is formed by the soil and too deep if a ridge is formed.

Depth depends on field conditions and what farmers want to accomplish. A disc harrow is typically set to a maximum depth equal to onequarter of the blade diameter.

Some implements have a singlepoint depth control with a hand crank that raises or lowers in half-inch increments with each handle rotation.

“When setting machine depth, be sure the machine carries some weight on the wheels, because the wheels are the base of all tool adjustments previously made,” Kuster said.

“When the tires don’t have some soil contact, control of the implement is lost.”

DOEESS DOES YOUR YIELD MEASURE UP?

How to achieve the maximum depth of a disc harrow: • Operate the tool with the wheels fully retracted and tires off the ground. Work the soil for a few hundred feet and allow the disc to achieve maximum depth. Then stop and lower the wheels until the frame begins to lift.

• Release the valve to stop the rise of the frame. Stop the tractor, but leave the tool in the ground.

• Adjust the single-point depth-control crank until the striker plate contacts the hydraulic poppet valve.

• Raise the tool until the audible click of the poppet valve engages, which stops the oil flow. The implement’s maximum depth is now set. Control of the tool is retained.

Setting the gauge wheels is the final step in setting up a tandem disc.

Gauge wheels are critical on flexible tillage tools to prevent front-wing corners from gouging.

Those that have been set correctly should move slightly side to side when kicked. Measure to make sure the settings are the same for both gauge wheels.

Operators’ manuals will have full details for specific settings on specific brands and models of machine.

Corn project draws interest from early adopters Big, yellow cereal | Grain corn attracts a few, experimental acres outside of southern Manitoba

BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

NORTH BATTLEFORD, Sask. — Demonstration corn plots are becoming field scale in Western Canada as potential acres reach an estimated 10 million.

Producers and agronomists braved spitting rain and cool fall temperatures last week at one of these plots in North Battleford to observe a grain corn harvest in action.

Debbie Stiles of DuPont Pioneer said her company has been developing shorter season corn hybrids that will fall into the 1,850 corn heat unit range by 2018. Only a few on the market now reach the 2,200 range.

The flint type corn growing on a field behind a North Battleford farm equipment dealership would typically have been used as a forage or silage feed, but it can also be grown for grain. It reached maturity ahead of the first killing frost and had fallen to 30 percent moisture before harvest.

Grain corn harvest would ideally start when the crop falls to 25 percent, but further drying takes a long time this time of the year in the northern Prairies, said Aaron Miller, a Pioneer agronomist from Saskatoon.

Corn is considered harvestable at 30 percent moisture or lower.

A corn demonstration project near North Battleford, Sask., drew area farmers and agronomists to observe a corn harvest in action. For many, it was the first time they had seen the big cereal combined. | MIKE RAINE PHOTO He said producers growing corn, whether in the American Midwest or on the Canadian Prairies, have to be prepared to dry it.

According to research by Manitoba Agriculture, standing corn can dry at

a rate of 0.3 to 0.5 percentage points per day in October, falling to 0.15 to 0.2 per day in November. Corn at 35 percent Oct.1 might reach 25 percent by the beginning of November and take another month to drop an addi-

tional five points.

Farmer’s Edge agronomist Thom Weir said growers should approach their corn with a three-part, staged drying strategy that first puts it on air to ensure it is cool so it resists mould.

The corn then goes through a dryer in two phases: the first taking it down to about 18 percent moisture and the second pulling it down to a more stable 15.5.

Rapid, high heat drying can crack the corn, making it unsuitable for some milling markets, said Weir.

Kevin Hadley of Norsask Farm Machinery set up and ran the combine until rain put a stop to the demonstration.

“The corn header is a little different.

It floats on the field and takes off the cobs and a minimum of other material,” he said.

“We ended up setting the combine similar to harvesting peas. Wider concave and slower cylinder speeds.

Lots of air and once its set, the crop threshes easily.”

Boyd Risling set up the field scale, 140 acre trial, which began with seeding in mid-May. He said he has clients who are trying corn.

“Generally they have livestock handy to feed, either with grazing or silaging, in case a corn crop doesn’t reach maturity,” he said.

“It’s been pretty successful so far.

The market for the grain is either for ethanol or feed milling.”

The North Battleford corn crop was yielding 80 to 120 bushels per acre, according to the combine’s monitor.

Not all of the large 2013 crop got put away in steel bins or plastic bags.

Some of it is piled in quonsets, outdoors on tarps or in temporary storage after bags and machines became scarce. And that means it is subject to insect infestations.

Noel White of Agriculture Canada’s Cereal Research Centre in Winnipeg said the grain insect risk for this crop is significant due to the way it is stored.

“The insects will find it and make a home in it. The challenge is to get that grain moved into the marketing stream first, otherwise it is going to be tough to hold it without problems,” he said.

White and his colleagues at the centre have been studying grain bag storage for three years and say that solution is effective at preserving grain safely, provided the bags stay closed at the ends.

“Provided the grain is dry, it should be good for the winter. But we recommend moving it out before spring to maintain the grade though,” he said.

Insects in the grain won’t multiply if the grain is below 20 C, so producers with air can keep infestations from growing if it is cooled well.

“The hard part is when grain is stored in very large quantities and it can’t get a chance to cool,” he said.

Rusty grain beetles remain the main pest problem for producers.

Blaine Timlick of the Canadian Grain Commission said his organization recently launched a new grain insect identification tool on its website, www.grainscanada.gc.ca.

That system allows producers to use a computerized decision tree that provides photographs of the insects that could be present in Canadian crop commodity production and allows a step by step identification process based on the insects’ features.

White says once pests are discovered, producers should act quickly to deal with them. Turning the grain at very cold temperatures will kill the insects and reduce any war m, spoiled grain to a stable temperature.

“If you can, wait for one of those minus 20 days and you’ll have great success,” he said.

Producers who chose to store grain in older, wooden structures that had previously fallen out of use will probably find those bins reliable because of their small size and the ability to cool grain temperatures quickly as the weather turns cold.

New organic production manual updates science details ORGANIC MATTERS

BRENDA FRICK

Second edition provides updates and advice on how to market products

T

he Saskatchewan Organic Directorate has released its new production manual, Organic Farming on the Prairies, second edition.

The original edition focused on organic grain production and combined practical how-to information with principles and research. It was incredibly popular, a text for introductory workshops and courses and a reference for practitioners.

The second edition retains the balance of practical information and guiding principles and updates the science behind organics.

Of course, grain production is still pivotal, but the second edition adds chapters on fruit, vegetable and livestock, as well as an expanded emphasis on marketing.

Topics range from crop production to the philosophy and history of organics, while crucial topics such as soil fertility and weed management are expanded.

Specifics and practical information are shared for each crop type. As well, sections on the principles behind the techniques are provided so that producers have a more solid foundation from which to experiment.

All major chapters are team efforts, bringing together the expertise of academic researchers, government specialists, subject specialists, and of course, the true experts, organic practitioners, who understand what happens when philosophy meets reality.

Featured throughout the second edition are more than 20 profiles of producers and businesspeople, who share their passion and first-hand experiences.

cies in the green manure provide better competition for weeds and bigger biomass. The legumes provide nitrogen and the cereals add bulk fibre and energy to feed soil organisms, and the benefits to the soil are obvious.”

On paying attention to Mother Nature, Jerry Kitt of First Nature Farms near Goodfare, Alta., said: “Shoot your TV. Spend time outside and learn from observation.”

Organics, like any good agriculture, requires planning, and Dwayne Logan of Logan Farms Organic Meat near Nesbitt, Man., said: “Start small and manage growth. Pencil out and plan the farm season in the fall and winter, map out a budget and be pre-

pared to be flexible.”

Marketing is key to success in organics, and Tony Marshall of Highwood Crossing Foods near Aldersyde, Alta., suggests that farmers should “go where you are loved.…

Discover your special niche in the market and go after it.”

Anita Oudshoorn of Fairwind Farm near Fort McLeod, Alta., suggests that farmers should “be passionate about your products. Love them and eat them yourself.”

On how organics has worked for them, Terry Toews of Penny Lane Organic Farm near Swift Current, Sask., said: “I think it’s good for us, it’s good for the soil and I really think it’s important to give consumers a

choice in the marketplace.”

Doug Bone of Greenan Organic Growers near Elrose, Sask., said: “I doubt very much I would be farming today if I hadn’t made the switch. You have to have the moxy to just go out and do it.”

Angie Schmidt of Meridian Organics near Rockglen, Sask., said: “When we farmed conventionally, it seemed we were fighting nature all the time, whereas now we don’t. We put in a green manure.

We go about our business and it grows.… Farming this way, we are working closer with nature instead of trying to control it.”

These experts, combined with the expertise of scientists and other spe-

cialists, offer enough insights to keep a reader thinking for the whole winter.

Is it time, once the crops are in and the bills are paid, to look again at the possibility of going organic? Are you wondering what new techniques and options might be available? Wanting to consider some tweaks to your existing system?

Perhaps it is time to settle in with a good book. The Organic Farming on the Prairies, second edition, is available at www.saskorganic.com.

ALL OF OUR SEED IS FIELD TESTED. JUST LIKE OUR REPS.

Growers share reasons They offer a wealth of wisdom, and I thought it might be interesting to hear a little from each of them in this column. Some discuss why they went organic.

For instance, Keith Neu of Etomami Community Organics near Hudson Bay, Sask., said: “Desperation got us into organic farming. We figured there had to be a better way than giving all our profit to the chemical companies.”

When it comes to weed control, Alvin Boyko of Boyko Farm near Yorkton, Sask., said: “People sometimes think you have to kill all the weeds; you don’t. You just have to slow them down a little bit. Even pre-emergent harrowing works a few days after seeding. You cover up some of the shallow weeds and you give the grain a bit of a head start.”

Feeding the soil from the point of view of Steven Snider of Little Hen Mills near New Norway, Alta., is described this way: “More plant spe-

SALE | ANGUS

Red Angus sale has helped breed grow Red Roundup | Red Angus bull sale averages $5,027; top seller, a female, draws $20,000 for half interest

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

RED DEER — The founders of Red Roundup simply wanted a gathering place for like-minded breeders when they came up with the idea of a special event dedicated to the Red Angus breed.

That was 41 years ago, and the annual event has since become a premier weekend for breeders and has drawn international attention, said Michael Wheeler, president of the Canadian Red Angus Promotion Society.

It offers a futurity event as well as a sale.

“This sale sets the bar of all breeds in the fall,” he said of the event, which this year was held in Red Deer Oct. 18-20.

Corrine Gibson of Six Mile Ranch at Fir Mountain, Sask., who is president-elect of the Canadian Angus Association, said the event was intended to raise the breed’s profile.

“The reason the Red Angus Promotion Society formed was because we had no presence in Canada,” she said.

Both colours are equally popular today and have the same genetic background. They are both registered with the Canadian Angus Association, while the United States has separate registries.

“People just realized that Red Angus have all the merits of Angus cattle. They are Angus cattle,” said Gibson, whose grandfather, Ken Frazer, was among the 12 founders of the society.

Reds are not eligible for the certified Angus beef program because one of the specifications is a black hide. However, other branded beef programs welcome Angus of any

The big breakthrough for the reds was when commercial producers accepted them for cross breeding, which accelerated demand for the breed.

“We have to thank our forefathers for sticking it out and persevering because there were some times when it was tough sledding if you had a red

The futurity bull grand champion at this year’s show came from Bar EL Angus, owned by Dave Longshore of Byemore, Alta., while the reserve came from Six Mile Ranch.

Both young bulls will be seen at major shows this fall such as Canadian Western Agribition in Regina Nov. 11-16.

The 2013 sale offered 61.5 lots, which grossed $309,150 to average $5,027. A breakdown of the sale saw

21 bred heifers average $5,148 and the 33 open heifers average $3,265.

A single male lot from Glesbar Cattle Co. of Barrhead, Alta., sold a half interest for $10,000.

The genetics portion of the sale offered four flush opportunities, which grossed $39,300 to average $9,825, and 2.5 donor females totaled $44,000 to average $17,600. Twenty frozen lots grossed $32,300.

The high seller of the event was a half interest in a donor female born in

2008. Named Red Rainbow Lois 7U, it was consigned by Rainbow Red Angus of Cherhill, Alta., and sold for $20,000 to Christy Collins and Wildcat Creek Ranch of Peabody, Kansas.

Mar Mac Farms of Brandon sold a bred heifer for $16,500 to Brylor Ranch of Pincher Creek, Alta.

HOGS | GROUP HOUSING CONVERSION

Pork code development hijacked by sow housing issue

BY BARRY WILSON OTTAWA BUREAU

Developing an animal welfare code of conduct for Canada’s hog industry has been contentious, controversial and costly, says a Canadian Pork Council official.

Associate executive director Catherine Scovil told a recent National Farm Animal Care Council conference in Ottawa that while the code has been a work in progress since 2009 and the industry supports it, the process has been hijacked by the issue of sow housing.

“It has become all about sow hous-

ing as the key issue,” she said.

“The danger in this is that it minimizes everything else in the code. I do worry that we are losing sight of everything else in the code that isn’t as controversial.”

The code proposes group housing for hogs after 2014, which has become a major industry issue since the proposal became public and open for comment, Scovil told the conference.

“It has become a difficult conversation in the public comment period,” she said.

Many producers think group housing is not necessarily best for hogs,

which can be aggressive and inflict injury on other pigs in the pen.

“They see the best outcome as maintaining the welfare of animals and the worst outcome is more injury.”

Still, the code calls for different housing arrangements, feeding protocols and space for hog group dynamics.

Scovil said the industry is committed to the animal welfare code that is becoming standard in the livestock sector, but there are significant costs to convert current barns to new standards.

She estimated it could cost more than $1,000 per sow to change existing housing arrangements.

“That’s half a billion dollars for our industry as a whole,” said Scovil.

“Given the economics of the industry in the past few years, there is a risk that banks will not extend the credit to make this conversion work.”

As well, she said there is no public commitment to share the cost for conversion of hog facilities, despite a public policy demand that animal welfare rules change.

“There is no indication of cost sharing, and this is a real sore spot,” she said. “Producers are being asked to do these things, but there is no financial incentive to do what is necessary.”

Scovil said some producers have told the pork council they may leave the industry if they have to make costly changes without compensation.

There is also the broader issue of who speaks for society and what is expected.

Activist groups are vocal and some retailers are setting their own rules, but farmers are not always clear.

“There’s lots of fear, and some producers are wondering why there is a code,” she said.

“There’s lots of fear, and sides are being taken. Farmers are insulted that their practices are being challenged so publicly.”

FORAGE TRIAL | KALE

Donations pour in after South Dakota storm kills up to 30,000 cattle

Alberta forage trial puts kale potential to the test

REUTERS NEWS AGENCY & KAREN BRIERE, REGINA BUREAU

Donations of money and cattle have been rolling in for South Dakota ranchers after a blizzard killed tens of thousands of cattle earlier this month.

It was one of the state’s worst agriculture tragedies.

Dozens of minimum-security prison inmates were aiding the clean-up effort, gathering debris in three towns in the western part of the state hit by record snowfall that felled trees and knocked out power lines.

“This is a very tough time in western South Dakota,” said South Dakota governor Dennis Daugaard.

“Many ranchers suffered devastating losses, putting them in an unthinkable position.”

South Dakota state veterinarian Dustin Oedekoven said 15,000 to 30,000 cattle were estimated to have died in the storm.

Animals suffocated as more than a metre of snow piled up. Others suffered from hypothermia, fell off rocky ledges or were hit by vehicles as they wandered onto roads in the blizzard.

The deaths are expected to result in tens of millions of dollars in lost income for ranchers, who were preparing to sell young calves valued at $800 or more each. Cows pregnant with calves that would have been born in the spring also died.

South Dakota had 3.85 million head of cattle in January, the sixth largest herd in the United States, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

More than $190,000 has been donated to the South Dakota Rancher Relief Fund, said Regina Jahr, executive director of the Black Hills Area Community Foundation, which is administering the aid.

The CHS Foundation, which is the charity arm of farm co-operative CHS Inc., donated $100,000, while $70,000 was pledged online from people across the United States and Canada, Jahr said.

“Ranchers across western South Dakota suffered significant loss of cattle, sheep and other livestock as a

result of this storm, the vast majority of which is not covered by insurance or other programs,” CHS Foundation president William Nelson said.

Cattle were spread out over a wide expanse of land, so it could be weeks or months before a final tally of losses is available.

Ranchers were also seeking donations of pregnant cows and heifers of breeding age to help rebuild their herds.

Parts of Colorado and Wyoming saw heavy snowfall during the storms, which also brought more than a dozen tornadoes to Iowa and Nebraska, injuring at least 15 people, damaging homes and knocking down power lines.

Meanwhile, the losses will also affect producers in Canada, said the chair of the Saskatchewan Cattlemen’s Association.

Mark Elford said markets are affected any time that many cattle are taken out of the system.

“In the near term, that can raise the price,” he said. “However, in the long term, in my opinion, we’re way down on numbers.”

It will eventually affect feeders and packers, he added.

Elford said the U.S. storm comes after a deadly spring for Saskatchewan producers that went largely unreported.

“In the south and in the west, where ranchers calve on the grass, there was a pile of calves that never made it,” Elford said.

“There was also a lot of cows that died.”

An extra six weeks of winter caused feed shortages and cut into calving, particularly in areas where producers don’t have facilities.

He said losses were seen south of Highway 16 and more acutely south of the Trans-Canada Highway, where producers were less prepared to feed six weeks longer than usual.

“It was dramatic, and nobody wanted to draw attention to it, but there were big issues.”

Elford said some ranchers experienced losses of more than 10 percent.

“You start losing that kind of infrastructure in a sector, that’s not good,” Elford said.

Overwintering issue | Cattle will graze on the kale this winter and regrowth will be monitored in the spring

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

AIRDRIE, Alta. — Planting kale seemed like an interesting experiment for one southern Alberta grazer.

If it works well, Graeme Finn may try it again.

Kale is part of the brassica family, which includes turnip, radish, cauliflower, cabbage, broccoli and canola.

It produces plenty of leafy material and long taproots and has a high nutrient value. As well, the cows seem to like it.

“If you take a stalk and chew on it, it is really flavourful,” Finn told a tour group from the Foothills Forage and Grazing Association Oct. 8.

European farmers have used turnips and cabbage for fodder as long as there has been domesticated agriculture. However, this experiment could be a first for the area, and the American seed supplier, PGG Seeds, wants to see how it handles climate extremes.

PGG Seeds produces and markets cool season forages, grasses and forbs. Company representative John Snider thinks they might survive in the foothills.

“I would not have brought them up here if I did not think they had a

chance of working here,” he said.

“All these plants are bred and designed to regrow, oftentimes under less than ideal management.”

There has been success with kale in some of the mountain states.

“Overwintering these is problematic, and we have got to find out how that is going to work here. They definitely are not following any of the climate zone maps as far as their behaviour. They are pretty tough plants,” he said.

Constant regrowth is one advantage.

Finn planted three pounds of the kale along with seven lb. of rye grass per acre in a 140 acre field that was used for oat swath grazing the previous year. Oat volunteers are plentiful, but the kale grew well throughout the field.

It is fast growing, and feed analysis came up with a crude protein level of 18 to 25 percent.

“It would be great on a rotational grazing pattern when you need summer feed,” said Finn.

The variety was called Winfred, a turnip-kale cross with a taproot rather than a bulb.

“You are not beholden to the strict 90 to 110 day period that you would require plus the moisture you would require for a turnip,” Snider said.

Finn plans to turn his cows out in

the field this winter and will monitor how well the cattle and plants work.

He will put in electric fences and move the cows regularly so they can clean up what is offered.

Regrowth of both species will be monitored early in the spring.

Each team member will get 225 kg of grass-fed beef

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

One southern Alberta ranching family w ill be paying special attention to the 2014 Olympics winter games in Sochi, Russia, when they cheer for the Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s luge team.

The Barnert family of Okotoks decided to support the athletes with a large donation of beef. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We felt it was one of those things we could give back. We couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give a cash donation, but we could donate nutrition,â&#x20AC;? said Jeremiah Barnert, one of the owners of Pin to Point Gelbvieh.

The donation of 600 pounds of grass-fed beef resulted in each member of the team receiving 100 lb. of beef. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are officially named the official beef supplier to the Canadian national luge team,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The athletes receive some government support, but for many it is a hand to mouth existence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to pay rent or make the car payments, nutrition

If they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to pay rent or make the car payments, nutrition is the next thing to go.

is the next thing to go,â&#x20AC;? Barnert said.

The ranch raises purebred seed stock with sales around the world.

They also have a grass-fed beef business.

The team, which includes Sam Edney, Alex Gough, Kimberly McRae, Arianne Jones, Tristan Walker and Justin Snith, placed in the top 10 at the 2012 world championships.

The luge team started its fundraising campaign in 2009 when it placed a sign on top of a community toboggan hill in Calgary, which netted them more than $200,000.

T

his year, as we packed up the backpacks and sharpened the pencils for our kids to return to school, I went back to school too.

I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to board the yellow school bus with our youngsters in the morning, or even drive to a college campus. I just had to make sure the internet was working and remember my user name and password to log into my virtual classroom.

What subject could be so necessary that a fella who finished his college degrees 21 years ago would be driven to humble himself by re-entering the college student population? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a language. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my effort to break out of the ranks of monolingual world speakers and become, at the least, partially bilingual.

Now, there are a lot of languages to choose from when going back to college to take a foreign language course.

I could have chosen the language of romance, French. Or Spanish, the loving tongue, as they say, an important and popular language here in the Western Hemisphere. Or to get away from the romance languages of

Europe, I could have looked to the Slavic â&#x20AC;&#x153;manly languagesâ&#x20AC;? such as Russian or Bulgarian to toughen up my lingo.

I could have attempted to learn the most widely spoken language in the world, by sheer numbers: Mandarin Chinese. Or Hindustani, spoken in the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second most highly populated country, India.

Or I could have gone old school and picked Arabic, one of our planetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ancient languages.

Nope, none of those dialects were deemed worthy of my valuable learning time. Instead, I chose to study Norwegian, which is the language of â&#x20AC;Ś well, Norway. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a language spoken fluently by at least seven one hundredths of a percent of the world population, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a darned important 4.9 million people because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re my relatives in the home country where three-fourths of my blood originated.

Norwegian was the first language of my mother when she grew up in the Norwegian immigrant home of her parents, whose roots were in Hallingdal and Gudbrandsdal, Norway. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my heritage and I yearn to touch it by speaking the words that my grandparents and great-grandparents spoke. To heck with the practical value of it all.

I reckon itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the same yearning that a young person growing up on the lands of the Standing Rock tribe might have to learn Lakota. We just need the schools and the languageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

fluent speakers to learn the words of our ancestors.

My classroom is a computer screen linked to the campus of the Universitetet i Nord Dakota.

I suppose I could have bought a set of tapes like I did when I was going to learn Spanish 15 years ago. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still in mint condition, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to borrow them. I guess thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I chose to pay tuition to be in an actual class. I needed deadlines and expectations and encouragement. Otherwise, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another set of tapes gathering the dust of good intentions.

So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m laying it on the line to snakke norsk lik mora mi, morfar min og bestemora mi (speak Norwegian like my mother and grandparents). Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m putting in time to get up early and study before the kids are awake, investing treasure to pay for the books and tuition, and risking reputation to earn a respectable grade, hopefully.

And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to swallow my pride and face up to my waning years when the university sends me the emails targeted to their â&#x20AC;&#x153;non-traditional students,â&#x20AC;? which means several things, but, to me, it means Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m now the â&#x20AC;&#x153;old guyâ&#x20AC;? in class overanalyzing test questions and fretting over the homework.

Make that the old Norwegian guy.

En Nordmann olding (I think). Ha det bra!

Many benefits with needleless vaccination Few step up for SCA elections ANIMAL HEALTH

ROY LEWIS, DVM

A

new technology will soon be released into our market that will revolutionize how cattle in Canada are vaccinated.

Beef quality assurance, biosecurity, disease transmission and meat tenderness are all on the minds of consumers these days, and this new approach should dispel a number of consumer concerns.

It involves vaccinating with compressed air, carbon dioxide or nitrogen. The product is then delivered through a small orifice equivalent to one-seventh the size of an 18-gauge needle.

The system eliminates the problems one now encounters with broken, bent or burred needles, hide damage and the potential for infection from dirty needles.

In nature, animals are protected from natural exposure to disease such as direct contact or erogenous transmission. It is no wonder then that the next step in a more natural vaccination process would be needleless.

We are already seeing mass numbers of poultry vaccinated in chambers using an aerosolized vaccination process. Perhaps vaccination by that method or by way of oral vaccines in the feed are in the foreseeable future for cattle, but for now we should be happy with this needleless technology.

The technology also eliminates the issue of disease transmission through blood, such as can happen with diseases like bovine leukosis.

The beef industry now gives all intramuscular shots in the neck muscles, but reactions and scarring can occur along the needle track, which reduces meat tenderness and adds gr istle that then must be trimmed out.

Buying the equipment that’s required to move away from needles will have an initial cost, but the money saved by not having to buy needles will eventually pay for that investment. It will also eliminate disposal issues, which will ease environmental concerns.

when enough pressure is reached.

It can discharge in increments of 1/2 cc to 2 1/2 cc. For higher amounts, such as a four cc dosage, the gun is set on two and discharged twice.

There are also plans to develop larger guns that will handle up to five cc dosages and be able to eventually handle antibiotics as well.

The gun can administer product either intradermally (within the skin), subcutaneously or intramuscularly depending on how the pressure is set.

There is a permanent mount model and a portable backpack unit, which we hope will soon be able to be demonstrated to producers and feedlot processors.

This route of administration has been tested against the conventional route and response has been as good or better with the newer approach.

Intervet USA, which is marketing the new technology, has found that the new approach is efficacious.

Although not statistically significant, there was a slight advantage to the new technology over administration with a needle.

The epidermis, or outer skin layer, is a mammal’s protective covering, so lots of cells are present to mount an immune response when exposed to a disease challenge. It makes more sense, then, to keep vaccinations near the surface or even in between the skin layers, like we do when we test an animal for tuberculosis.

This is a totally new method of administration, which means the current vaccines would have to be run through trials to prove their efficacy with the new technique.

The risk of accidental vaccination is much less with this method because pressure must be applied to discharge the product.

The cattle tolerate this application far better than a needle, although proper restraint speeds up the process with any route of administration.

the work. This is especially true these days, where high numbers of treatment crews are women and the automatic guns have really not been designed with them in mind. The automatic guns require a larger hand, but this is not an issue with compressed air.

The system must become more portable to use in the field and must be able to stand up in our inclement weather, but I envision the day when all vaccinations could be given this way.

It may also become mandatory, just as Canadian Cattle Identification Agency ear tags are now mandatory.

This would be to the benefit of our entire industry.

Remember, no matter how good vaccination technology becomes, it is still not a replacement for poor management. Response to vaccinations will be greater if you are well managed with regards to nutrition and parasite control.

Saskatchewan cattle producers aren’t stepping up to take leadership positions in their industry, and that concerns the chair of the Saskatchewan Cattlemen’s Association.

The SCA annual fall district meetings began earlier this week, and elections were scheduled in six of the 11 districts.

In three of those, just one candidate stepped forward. In three others, no one came forward before the nomination deadline. At a meeting last week, the board appointed the incumbents in two of those districts after they agreed to stay on. The remaining district will be filled at a later date.

“It’s certainly a concern to me,” said Mark Elford, who completes his term in January and did not let his name stand again in District 3A. He said most cattle producers are stretched to the limit. The lack of profitability in the sector the last few years has forced them to cut personnel.

“So you have good people that have

stepped forward that are saying, ‘I can’t commit this much time anymore,’ and then you’ve got people who just say ‘there’s no way. I can’t commit to that’,” Elford said.

“How to fix it, I don’t know.”

The SCA was formed in 2009 as a development commission to administer the beef checkoff. It is also supposed to provide a unified voice for all beef producers.

The organization is governed by 11 regional directors as well as two directors appointed by the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association and another two by the Saskatchewan Cattle Feeders Association.

The directors acclaimed or appointed this year take office at the SCA annual general meeting in Saskatoon during the January beef industry conference.

They will be: District 1, Ryan Beierbach, Whitewood, incumbent; District 3A, Laurie Disney, Rockglen, acclaimed; District 4, Rick Toney, Gull Lake, incumbent; District 6, vacant; District 8, Michael Spratt, Melfort, incumbent; and District 9B, Dean Moore, Paradise Hill, incumbent.

Technotill shines even when it rains Doug Hannah believes with the feast or famine nature of agriculture and is ready to adopt any technology that can mitigate the risks.

After experiencing years of drought in Alberta’s Peace River Region, he wasn’t prepared for three years of extremely wet conditions when the family relocated to a farm in east-central Saskatchewan.

Landing in the middle of “flood” conditions in the Foam Lake area in 2010, he soon discovered the Technotill seeding system was one of the best risk management tools he could employ on the farm — rain or shine.

Laying hen producers phase out traditional cages Alberta egg producers | Producers vote to ban conventional or enrichable cage systems after 2014 deadline

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Alberta egg producers are changing the way laying hens are raised by switching to more open housing systems.

In a vote earlier this year, Egg Farmers of Alberta decided that producers who are raising hens in conventional cages will be able to continue but no new conventional or enrichable cage systems may be installed in Alberta after Dec. 31, 2014.

Enrichable systems are built with standard cages but can be enlarged and refitted with scratch pads,

nests and other comforts at a future date.

“Farmers realize these (newer) systems have benefits. They also know they are more expensive and they know right off the bat they are not going to recover all their costs on the newer systems but they k n ow t h e y a re d o i n g t h e r ig ht thing,” said chair Ben Waldner.

There are more than 150 members in the organization.

Waldner said no new barns built in recent years have installed conventional battery cages.

The Calgary Co-op grocery chain passed a resolution at its annual

meeting last spring not to buy eggs from farms that use battery cages.

However, the farmers were already making changes on their own.

The new policy will be integrated into the egg farmers’ animal care polic y, giving the board authority to regulate hen housing in Alberta.

The changes present a new way of doing things on the farms that usually keep about 11,000 birds, said Waldner, who raises laying hens at the Byemoor Colony in central Alberta.

The biggest change for producers will be monitoring birds to make

sure they remain calm and do not fight or cause other behaviour problems.

“If we want to enhance the welfare of the hen all the way through, we re a l l y hav e t o u n d e r s t a n d t h e behaviour of the birds,” he said.

For example, even though birds are vaccinated for common diseases at the hatchery, open barns could increase risks of spreading sicknesses.

Breeding companies have also selected birds that are calmer so they can adapt to these new systems, Waldner said.

Retooling a barn could cost about

25 percent more than a traditional system.

Farmers pay for the changeover, which Waldner said would take about 10 years to pay off.

“The main thing is we need to enhance the welfare of the animal, but we need to make sure producers still make a profit as well as enhance the welfare of the birds,” he said.

The national code of practice for laying hens is under revision by committees at the National Farm Animal Council and is expected to usher in more changes to how hens are housed and treated.

CANADA BREAD | REVIEW

Maple Leaf may sell bakery TORONTO (Reuters) — Maple Leaf Foods is considering selling its controlling stake in Canada Bread Co. as it determines whether to leave the bakery segment and focus on its meat business.

The company said it recently completed a review of opportunities to accelerate profitable growth across its bakery business. However, before committing resources to implement this strategy, it has decided to explore strategic alternatives, including selling its 90 percent stake in Canada Bread.

“We are confident that our bakery business can deliver significantly higher levels of profitable growth; the only question is how best to realize the future value of this business,” Maple Leaf chief executive officer Michael McCain said in a statement.

In the event of a sale of the business, Maple Leaf said it would consider using the proceeds to pay down debt, reinvest in its business and return capital to shareholders.

The company cautioned that there could be no assurance that a sale of the business will occur.

Maple Leaf expects to conclude the strategic alternatives process in early 2014.

In a separate statement, Canada Bread said it has appointed a special committee comprising its independent directors to ensure that all of its shareholders are treated fairly and that the company’s interests are taken into account during this process.

The Toronto-based company said it also engaged CIBC World Markets Inc. to act as its financial adviser.

Canada Bread, in addition to bread sold under the Dempsters brand, sells pasta and other products under banners such as Olivieri, Ben’s, POM and Sunmaid.

CWB equity deal targets farmers Farmer equity | The date of privatization is not set but must be complete before August 2017

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A CWB plan that offers prairie farmers equity in a privatized grain company will likely remain in effect for the 2014-15 crop year.

However, the terms of the equity offering are subject to change after Aug. 1, 2014.

Under the privatization plan, farmers will be offered $5 worth of postprivatization CWB equity for each tonne of grain they deliver to the company this year.

Other details, including a proposed date of privatization, potential corporate partners and the form that farmer equity will take, are still being worked out.

The privatization date is still up in the air, but CWB officials hope to have the plan executed before a government imposed August 2017 deadline.

“We’re trying to come up with a plan … where farmers have a permanent shareholding in the CWB,” said company president Ian White during an Oct. 17 conference call.

CWB’s plan to establish a network of grain handling assets across the West will require outside capital, he added.

When asked how producers could be assured that their equity in a privatized CWB would not be eroded as it was in the former Saskatchewan Wheat Pool, White said CWB’s ownership model will differ from the one employed by the prairie pools.

“When we look at the sorts of things that we think are going to be necessary for the CWB to develop — the sort of network that’s required and the capital that’s required — we do expect to have some outside, very much aligned shareholders that aren’t necessarily associated with the stock markets,” White said.

“We’re looking to develop a structure that tries to keep the farmers’ shareholdings as intact as possible….

We don’t believe that the sort of model that was set up with the prairie pools years ago was necessarily a very sustainable model.… We’re looking for something that will be more sustainable as we move forward and protect farmers interests.”

The amount of post-privatization equity held by farmers will depend on the amount of grain marketed through CWB and the estimated value of the company once it is privatized.

In the first year of grain market

deregulation, CWB officials suggested that the company was aiming to handle one-third of the wheat and barley produced in Western Canada, or 10 million tonnes.

It has since acknowledged that the amount of grain committed to CWB programs in 2012-13 fell short of that amount.

Some industry observers have estimated that it was closer to 10 percent.

CWB has since expanded its sales program to include peas, canola and other crops, but the company’s expected market share is unclear.

Total production of barley and wheat in Western Canada, including durum, is expected to come in at 40 million tonnes in 2013-14.

If CWB pool programs attract 10 percent of that volume, farmer equity derived from the sale of those two grains would amount to $20 million this year.

Dayna Spiring, CWB’s chief strategy officer and general counsel, said farmer response will determine how much equity is held by producers.

“We’re still finalizing our plans for the future, but we anticipate that farmers will own a minority interest in the CWB as we go forward,” Spiring said.

“How long the equity offering will

be available to farmers depends in large part on farmers’ response to this program.… We anticipate that (the equity offering) will be a multiyear plan. It will certainly be for longer than this year. The equity value that will be attributed to farmers every year will vary, but for this year it’s $5 per tonne for each tonne a farmer delivers.”

Some farmers have criticized the equity plan, suggesting it offers producers equity in something that they already own.

However, Spiring said CWB assets were built up over a long period and were debt financed through CWB’s retained earnings rather than from money generated through CWB pool accounts.

“While there has been various investments made, those investments haven’t been made out of the pool accounts,” she said.

“There have been investments that have been financed, and there’s been money that has been borrowed to pay for those investments. So … no, farmers don’t yet own the CWB, but we want them to be owners of the CWB, and that’s our plan. We value farmers. We want them to be our partners and we do want them to play a meaningful role in our future.”

Seed Hawk sold to Swedish maker Manufacturing | Partnership leads to new ownership for Langbank, Sask., company

BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Seed Hawk, a reduced tillage seeding company from Saskatchewan, has been sold to the Swedish farm machinery maker Vaderstad.

Pat Beaujot and Brian Dean have sold their family business to another family, this one 7,000 kilometres away from Seed Hawk’s home base in Langbank, Sask.

“The Starks run a great company and they will bring those European styles of management and (factory) building with them to Saskatchewan,” Beaujot said last week after the sale was announced.

“It will be great for Seed Hawk.”

C h r i s t i na St a rk ’s f a m i l y w i l l assume control of the Saskatchewan equipment company immediately, with Beaujot and Dean remaining with the organization’s product development arm and as members of the board of directors.

Beaujot said there was discussion about an eventual sale to the larger Swedish company when his company began to work with Vaderstad in 2006 to expand international distribution of both brands and fund expansion at Seed Hawk.

“Everyone needs an exit strategy of some sort if you are in business, and this was ours,” Beaujot said about the sale of his company’s 93,000 sq. foot facility.

“It just came about earlier than planned.”

Vaderstad is making a major move into North America with its high speed, precision planter technology.

Most of its machines, such as the Tempo planter and vertical tillage tools, are destined for the American corn belt.

Langbank was considered a good place for the Seed Hawk and Vaderstad equipment to be built, both for

the prairie and U.S. great plains markets.

“To make a major expansion at Langbank, the Starks wanted to have controlling interest in the company,” Beaujot said.

“Brian and I talked about what it would mean for our employees and the community and decided the kind of investment they would make would be excellent for everybody, so we agreed to sell.”

Seed Hawk has 190 employees.

Beaujot said the Starks are setting up a new business structure that will place Vaderstad and Seed Hawk on separate, sister-type corporate platforms, each reporting to the family’s board of directors and management.

Seed Hawk’s air seeding tools are exported to regions that have semiarid growing conditions and practice broad acre farming similar to what takes place on the Prairies and Great Plains.

Vaderstad’s products are geared to more European-type regions where tillage and planting takes place in higher moisture conditions, not unlike those of the American Midwest.

Vaderstad joins other European companies, such as Horsch, which are expanding sales and product development in North America.

Seed Hawk will keep its headquarters in Saskatchewan, and the current general manager, Peter Clark, will take over from Beaujot as chief executive officer.

Beaujot said he has observed the way the Starks run their business in t h e p a s t s e v e n y e a r s, a n d w a s impressed by what he saw.

“If anything, it will only be an improvement to this family-owned business,” he said.

“It’s another family that takes being in the farm equipment business personally.”

good strategy for managing financial burdens that can result from one’s death is never a bad idea.

Life insurance is one tool for farmers to consider.

It might not always be necessary, but it is prudent to consider the types of life insurance and how they might help plan for the future, particularly if an estate contains a business or significant assets.

Most family farms will roll over to the next generation on a tax deferred basis, but this is not always the case.

A tax deferred rollover may not be applicable if the next generation is a non-resident or does not meet the Canada Revenue Agency’s definition of a child.

In these circumstances, farmers can be left with significant tax bills.

A life insurance policy might significantly reduce such burdens in certain circumstances.

There are several types of life insurance policies: • Term insurance — This is the sim-

plest type of life insurance. The premiums are fixed for a specific number of years. The term of the insurance depends on how long the policy is needed and can be for any specified number of years that is required. The policy carries no value and cannot be borrowed against or paid out if cancelled.

• Term to 100 — Like term insurance, this has no cash value. The difference is that the premium is set for life and will not increase. This may mean higher premiums in the early years of the policy when compared to term insurance, but it will likely be cheaper in the latter years.

The policy doesn’t charge premiums once an individual reaches the age of 100, but the policy is still in place.

• Whole life (universal life) — Whole life insurance is different in that part of the premiums are paid into an investment account, which can then be built up over time. This increase in value is called the cash surrender value. The cash surrender value within the policy is paid to the insurance holder if the policy is cancelled. The policy holder has to pay a minimum premium to hold the policy and can pay up to a maximum. The investments are usually mutual funds.

• Joint policies — cover more than one individual and can be cheaper than having individual policies.

They can be set up as “first to die”

or “last to die.” Under the first to die version, as soon as one of the covered individuals dies the policy pays out to the surviving policy holder or other named beneficiary.

Under the last to die version, the policy pays out upon the death of the surviving policy holder. The money can help with the estate issues such as covering taxes on capital gains and equalizing the inheritance among several children.

There are many situations where life insurance may be appropriate: to ease the transfer of business to future generations, protect the business for key personnel or deal with the death of shareholders.

It is also a way to ensure that there is money for children’s education and a spouse isn’t left with financial burdens in the case of an unexpected death.

Life insurance policies can be a useful tool when one child wants to farm and the other does not because it ensures both children are treated fairly and equal.

Speaking with a professional about whether a life insurance policy would be appropriate for your situation could be the difference between success or distress in the future of the farm.

Growing today for tomorrow.

Farming, the biggest job on earth.

The population is increasing, but farmland isn’t. So the pressure is on for farmers to maximize yields and produce high-quality crops to meet the needs of a growing planet. This is why BASF is working with farmers to create chemistry that will increase the yield and quality of crops. With help from BASF, it’s in the farmers’ hands.

To learn more about BASF’s commitment to sustainable agriculture, check out our videos at agsolutions.ca/sustainability.
