Louis Dreyfus files complaint against CN

Carryout biggest in Sask.

Few details available about level of service complaint

Victim of location | Rail service legislation amendments hit ‘speed bump’ in Ottawa

Louis Dreyfus has filed a level of service complaint against Canadian National Railway.

The complaint, filed April 16 to the Canadian Transportation Agency, implies poor rail service by CN and failure to meet the terms of a service contract negotiated by the railway company and Louis Dreyfus.

“I can confirm that … Louis Dreyfus Commodities (LDC) filed a level of service complaint under the Canada Transportation Act … with respect to a confidential contract they have with CN,” said CTA spokesperson Chantal Laflamme.

“I can also tell you that LDC has requested that the (CTA) … issue an interim order requiring CN to abide

Saskatchewan farmers will be sitting on more undelivered grain than their neighbours in Manitoba and Alberta by the end of the 2013-14 crop year.

That’s because the majority of grain being shipped east to Thunder Bay or west to Vancouver and Prince Rupert is being shipped from elevator locations in Manitoba and Alberta, says the executive director of the Western Grain Elevators Association.

By virtue of their location and distance to port, Saskatchewan elevators can expect fewer grain cars, less reliable rail service and fewer outbound grain shipments than elevators in other prairie provinces, said Wade Sobkowich.

“If we have a carryout at the end of the (2013-14 crop) year of approximately 23 million tonnes … Saskatchewan is going to be sitting on most of that carryout,” Sobkowich said.

“Not only are the railways picking the corridors where grain is being shipped, but they are also, to a large extent, picking the locations that the trains get spotted at because of (car) turn-around times.”

“They’re picking locations in Alberta because of the quicker turnaround times (to the West Coast) … and they’re picking locations in Manitoba because of the turnarounds at Thunder Bay … but in Saskatchewan many locations are still having difficulty getting service.”

Poor rail service to Saskatchewan elevators is the latest challenge facing farmers and grain companies attempting to move the largest grain crop in Canadian history.

In early March, Ottawa imposed an order in council requiring Canada’s major railway companies, Canadian National and Canadian Pacific, to move one million tonnes of grain SEE CARRYOUT, PAGE 2

Carryout biggest in Sask. per week or risk fines as high as $100,000 per day.

The federal order did not specify where the grain must be sourced or where it must be unloaded.

Sobkowich said elevators in Manitoba and Alberta have been receiving more trains and better service than elevators in Saskatchewan.

In addition, deliveries of western Canadian grain to the United States are still falling well short of industry expectations.

“We are getting … a decent amount of capacity to the West Coast … and we’re getting decent service to Thunder Bay, but … we’re not getting any capacity to speak of to the United States and we’re not getting very much capacity to Eastern Canada.”

Movements of soybeans, primarily in Manitoba, have been cut off completely, Sobkowich added.

“The railways are refusing to move soybeans … because soybeans aren’t listed as a Schedule 2 grain so they’re not covered under the order in council,” he said.

Meanwhile, emergency legislation aimed at ensuring better rail service to the grain industry was expected to receive Parliamentary approval late this week or early next week.

The Fair Rail for Grain Farmers Act, also known as Bill C-30, hit a speed bump last week after the speaker of the House of Commons ruled that proposed amendments to the bill were “null and void.”

The amendments in question would have allowed the Canadian Transportation Agency to assess financial damages caused by poor rail service and award compensation to shippers that incurred unexpected costs.

The bill was sent back to the agriculture committee earlier this week and was reworked under the assumption that the CTA’s regulatory authority will be expanded to include the assessment of financial damages caused by poor rail service and the ability to order compensatory damages, from railways to aggrieved shippers.

Complaint filed against CN by contractual terms during the proceedings,” she said.

“As it is a confidential contract, I am unable to speak to the specifics of the agreement.”

Laflamme said a decision on such a complaint is normally rendered within 120 days, after both parties have had an opportunity to submit written arguments.

If the CTA rules that CN is failing to meet its contractual obligations to the grain company, it could order CN to take steps ensuring that the terms of the contract are being upheld.

The CTA is a quasi-judicial tribunal that acts like a court but it does not make rulings on financial damages or award compensation to aggrieved shippers.

Efforts by a complainant to recover financial damages caused by poor rail service would normally take place in civil court.

If it is passed, the Fair Rail for Grain Farmers Act, also known as Bill C-30,

would expand the CTA’s authority, potentially giving it the power to assess and award financial damages and include financial penalties in arbitrated level of service agreements.

Despite frequent complaints about poor rail service in Western Canada, it is uncommon for grain companies to file formal level of service complaints against a railway company.

In 2008, the CTA ruled that CN was failing to meet its service obligations to CWB and five other shippers during the 2006-07 crop year.

In 2010, it dismissed a complaint from a Saskatchewan grain producer alleging that the planned delisting of grain loading sites in Western Canada constituted a breach of CN’s obligations under the Canada Transportation Act. Officials from L ouis Dreyfus declined to comment on the April 16 complaint.

LIVESTOCK | HOGS

Hog industry needs wise investments Plan, prepare, review | Experts advise hog producers to plan to rebuild or retrofit barns

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

RED DEER — Hog producers may have experienced welcome profitability in recent months after a six year slump, but economists advise caution going forward.

Profits are more than $100 per head, so producers who are still in the industry need to decide where to invest that money.

“In the foreseeable future, there is money to be made in the hog industry,” Ruth Leman of Farm Credit Canada told the Alberta Agricultural Economists Association annual meeting held in Red Deer May 1-2.

“Hog farmers still in the business today are the survivors. The last six years have not been good for the equity position.”

She said bankers still see too many producers who do not know their cost of production. Now is not the time to get sloppy, she added, even if they are making money.

Leman organizes costs into three categories: unnecessary, borderline and necessary.

Unnecessary costs are the nice-tohave items, while borderline costs include more technology than what is needed, more labour than what is used and barns that are overbuilt.

Necessary costs cannot be cut because they would impact the farm’s operation. Feed falls into this

category, but many managers in recent years have found cheaper rations, improved electricity efficiency and monitored water use.

“They were the little adjustments that didn’t cost a lot but meant a lot to the bottom line,” Leman said.

Farms should not defer maintenance because it affects herd health and hog comfort. Broken down equipment or buildings in disrepair could lead to more disease.

Now that profitability has improved, bankers are telling producers to improve their working capital, put some money away, pay down small loans and reduce operating loans to lower, more manageable limits.

Business plans need to be reviewed monthly so that farm

managers can compare projections to what actually happened and make adjustments.

The farm also needs to maintain a good relationship with the banker and start talking early on before things get out of hand.

Many barns are reaching the end of their physical life and need to be retrofitted or rebuilt.

Rod Pfeifer of FCC said the problem facing lenders is the lack of sustained profitability and the risk associated with investing in a new barn when the industry could take another downturn.

“It is one of those bankers’ conundrums,” he said.

“In order to get the money out there in the first place, you have to

have security, which you can establish right now.”

Three months of profitability is not enough to justify a major mortgage. Bankers would be more willing if profitability continued for two years, but by then the industry could have fallen apart again.

Another issue is the new animal welfare requirement to move from a gestation stall system to open housing for sows.

Consumers say they want changes in the way food animals are raised, but they are unlikely to want to pay more for pork that costs more to produce.

Productivity usually drops by 20 percent in loose housing, so it is harder to make money. Pfeifer said rebuilding or retrofitting could cost $1,500 per sow compared to a traditional barn, which could cost onethird of that.

Pfeifer said it is hard to make a business case to lend money at this time.

FCC helped many producers leave the business in the last five years, and abandoned barns dot the Prairies.

They do not have much value and some would prefer to knock them down and farm the land.

He said FCC has had some losses in the hog portfolio, which comprises less than 10 percent of its loans.

“It was a manageable risk because we are doing well in other industries,” he said.

E g g Fa r m e r s o f A l b e r t a h a s launched a program designed to attract new entrants to the supplymanaged egg business without having to pay for quota.

Alberta was allocated additional quota earlier this year in the annual review process, and 10 percent of the province’s new quota, equivalent to 10,538 birds, is being made available to new entrants. The rest was allocated to existing producers.

“We’re looking for dedicated people who really want to farm and this is their life passion,” said EFA board chair Susan Schafers.

“Usually quota has to be purchased.

This is an opportunity for producers to basically have it at no cost.”

It is the first year for a formalized new entrant program at EFA. New entrants can apply for quota lots of up to 1,500 birds, and they must file their application before June 27.

Applicants must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents and live in Alberta. As well, they and their spouses cannot be current or former egg quota holders and cannot be current or past shareholders in a company that has egg quota.

Hutterite colony applicants must be fully independent from any other colony to be eligible.

All applicants must provide a business plan accompanied by a $1,000 fee, after which a selection committee will review all applications. Allocation will be determined by a draw if there are more qualified candidates than lots available.

Schafers said no preference will be given to young farmers, though she hopes the program will attract and assist beginning farmers.

“I think all of agriculture would like to attract younger producers,” she said.

“We’re happy, obviously, if we can attract new producers in general, but I think having younger producers just adds to the well-being of the industry overall. They bring in fresh ideas quite often.”

Schafers said recipients of the new entrant quota will have two years to activate it. Once activated, the quota cannot be transferred or sold for 10 years, after which it becomes officially allocated.

New entrant program plans have been in place for several years, but this is the first time it has been used, said Schafers.

“It’s a great new program. We are really thrilled about the number of people who are interested. We’ve had quite a good response already.”

GRAIN | STORAGE

Farmer hopes to save elevator from demolition

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

A Saskatchewan farmer wants to buy a Viterra elevator to store grain.

However, he says the company would rather tear it down than pocket the $250,000 he has offered.

Dean McPherson, who farms near Yellow Grass, said the elevator in that community southeast of Regina is slated for demolition, along with seven other wooden crib elevators that the company owns.

He approached Viterra with his offer because he suffered a farming accident last year. Using the elevator would make it easier for him to continue farming.

He also said he can’t believe a grain company is tearing down storage when carryover is so high after last year’s record crop.

McPherson said he represents no threat to the company but was told it worries about competition.

“They want to tear it down come hell or high water,” he said.

“I’ve written them and I’ve told them that I will sign a non-competition clause. I’ve laid out a number of reasons how it would actually benefit them.”

The Yellow Grass facility was built in 1984 — McPherson’s grandfather cut the ribbon at the official opening — but he said it hasn’t been used for the last several years.

The elevator, which has a capacity of 140,000 bushels, operates primarily as a fertilizer and chemical distribution point and is part of the sale of such facilities to Crop Production Services.

McPherson said he talked to CPS, and officials there said they would be willing to work something out with him if he and Viterra can reach a deal.

For example, McPherson said he doesn’t need the office space.

He also said the internet company YourLink uses the elevator as a tower to distribute high speed service to 70 customers.

“They’re not happy about (the planned demolition) either,” he said.

McPherson lost his footing last April and slipped into a grain bag extractor auger. His right foot was caught.

“The foot was really mangled up in the auger,” said McPherson, who farms 7,400 acres.

“I had nerve damage, and it doesn’t send blood flow to and from my foot properly.”

His boot provided some protection, but the bones in his foot broke and he now suffers from complex regional pain syndrome.

“My problem is mobility and carrying stuff around,” he said.

The ability to load and unload grain in an elevator without having to move augers would be great, he added.

McPherson believes Viterra would benefit from the good public relations it would receive by helping him maintain his operation. He also said maintaining the storage at Yellow Grass could alleviate some of the pressure at the nearby Weyburn facility.

However, he said the company isn’t interested.

Viterra did not reply to a request for an interview.

Alberta farms opening doors for visitors Open Farm Days | Over 3,000 people attended events in Alberta last year promoting ag awareness

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

MILLET, Alta. — Throwing down the welcome mat and opening their barn doors to visitors has been on the Breevliet farms’ “to do” list for 20 years.

Open Farm Days, a provincial initiative to encourage farmers to show off their farm with visits, seemed the natural partnership, said Ingrid de Goeij, one of the co-owners of the Breevliet farm.

“It’s necessary,” said de Goeij.

“We really feel society is getting disconnected from agriculture,” she said.

Breevliet dairy is also celebrating its 20th anniversary and this seemed like the right venue to celebrate the multigenerational farm, which began with 45 cows and now milks almost 500 cows three times a day.

On August 23-24, Breevliet dairy will be just one farm across the province welcoming visitors. Last year,

more than 3,000 people visited 41 farms and 13 culinary events during Open Farm Days in Alberta.

With almost 80 percent of Alberta’s population living in urban areas, there is a need for people to see where their food comes from, said Alberta agriculture minister Verlyn Olson.

“It’s an opportunity to let Albertans see where their food comes from,” he said.

It’s also an opportunity for farmers and ranchers to showcase their operation to their neighbours and to folks in the city.

Olson said it’s an opportunity for urban Albertans to get out into the country and see what happens.

“This is an opportunity for people to reconnect and for those who have never been on a farm. It’s an amazing experience.”

David Sprague, chief executive officer of Ag for Life, said many people have never been to a farm and Open Farm Days is their invitation to visit

Alberta agriculture minister Verlyn Olson tries his hand at putting the milking unit on one of the 500 dairy cows at Breevliet dairy, north of Wetaskiwin, Alta. It was part of Open Farm days promotion, encouraging farmers to open their doors and welcome people to the farm. farms and talk to farmers about where their food comes from. Ag for Life’s goal is to support programs and other initiatives that promote agriculture.

Richard Starke, Alberta’s minister of tourism, said this is an opportunity for people to find their rural roots.

Farmers are encouraged to register their farm and become an Open Farm host.

Albert Kamps, a dairy farmer said when people come to his farm

they’re always amazed to discover how much there is to learn about animal feed.

“The cows’ diet is far more balanced than mine,” said Kamps.

De Goeij said she always welcomes school children to their dairy. There are always kindergarten children, but she also wants high school teachers to bring older students. If teachers show controversial films like Food Inc., they should balance it by bringing students to a real dairy farm.

CWB | GRAIN HANDLING

CWB on lookout for assets and opportunities Producer car loading facilities on wish list

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

CWB’s search for new investment opportunities in Western Canada is not over yet.

President Ian White says the soonto-be-privatized grain company is continuing to search for additional grain handling assets and new investment opportunities.

Last year, CWB acquired Mission Terminal at Thunder Bay, Ont., the largest handler of Western Canadian grain shipped via producer cars.

Since then, it announced the construction of new high-throughput elevators at Bloom, Man., near Portage la Prairie, and Colonsay, Sask., southeast of Saskatoon.

CWB has also entered an agreement with Prairie West Terminal at Plenty, Sask., to acquire that company’s assets, which include a highthroughput concrete elevator and a number of smaller wooden facilities in west-central Saskatchewan.

White said CWB is looking at producer car loading facilities as another opportunity to expand handling volumes and forge closer ties with producers.

Groups have already contacted CWB, asking whether the former Canadian Wheat Board would be interested in making capital investments in new producer car loading sites.

White said CWB welcomes those discussions and would assess opportunities on a case-by-case basis.

“If there was an opportunity for us and for the local producers for that, we’d certainly look at it,” he said.

With the acquisition of Mission Terminal, CWB’s initial focus has been on acquiring facilities in the eastern catchment area.

In the future, CWB said it is hoping to expand its reach into Alberta and other areas that would normally ship grain through west coast terminals.

“Right now, our focus has been in (Manitoba and eastern Saskatchewan) … but we’re also sending grain west … with our handling agreements so anything we’re able to send west, we will also be looking to do that.”

White said securing access to terminal capacity on the West Coast port will remain a priority.

Rumours have persisted this year that the CWB’s grain handling agreements with major line companies have not lived up to expectations.

With restricted grain movements across Western Canada this winter and line companies focused on executing their own sales programs, CWB business has taken a back seat at many elevator locations.

White said CWB is eager to renew its agreements with line companies.

“We already have handling agreements in place with a number of companies and we value those agreements,” he said.

“We obviously have to see how things go moving forward but … I think we do want them to be renewed…. We’re still compatible with that and we hope that they will see some value in our handle….”

Seeding might be delayed across much of the Prairies due to cool weather, according to Environment Canada. | FILE PHOTO WEATHER | TEMPERATURE

Prairies expected to see cool spring Warmer weather unlikely | Forecasts show cool temperatures extending into summer

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Mother Nature doesn’t believe in atonement, so farmers shouldn’t count on a sweltering summer this year, says Canada’s best-known weatherman.

David Phillips, a senior climatologist with Environment Canada, said computer models suggest that below normal temperatures could persist for several more weeks and possibly into the summer.

Environment Canada’s three month forecast for Manitoba, Saskatchewan and the eastern half of Alberta indicates a 50 to 60 percent chance of below normal temperatures in May, June and July.

A 50 percent likelihood of cool weather isn’t a useful piece of infor-

mation, but Environment Canada’s forecast for warm temperatures is more telling.

The department said there is only a 10 to 20 percent chance of above normal temperatures on the Prairies in May, June and July.

In other words, chilly temperatures are much more likely than scorching weather this spring.

Phillips said the U.S. National Weather Service has a similar outlook for the northern Plains and the Canadian Prairies.

“May, June, July, they show it a little cooler on the Prairies,” Phillips said.

“That’s a little concerning because there are two different services, with different models, showing the same kind of thing.”

Andy Nadler, an agricultural meteorologist with Weather Innovations

Consulting, said the frigid spring is troubling, but prair ie far mers shouldn’t switch to a cool season crop based on Environment Canada forecasts.

“It does start bringing about those thoughts, ‘my corn, am I going to get it in early enough?’ ” he said.

“I’ll look at the Environment Canada long-term forecast, but they’re not accurate…. Same with the (U.S.) National Weather Service…. In my opinion, relying on those (forecasts) and making management decisions based on those is probably not smart.”

As an example of how chilly it’s been this spring in Western Canada, the average daily high in Brandon was 5.1 C in April. The historical normal for Brandon is a daily high of 10.7 C in April.

Phillips said the cool spring is a residual effect from the brutal winter.

“You can’t get the warm air until you get rid of the ice, the snow and the frozen ground.”

Phillips said the forecast looks more promising for June, July and August.

T h e m o d e l s i n d i c ate a 5 0 - 5 0 chance of normal weather for Manitoba, Saskatchewan and eastern Alberta.

“My sense is it’s going to be, at best, normal,” Phillips said.

“Right now, it (the model) is not showing that nature is going to make amends for a tough, long, cold winter and spring. We’re not seeing anything … that suggests a rapid warmup, or even a torrid compensation kind of weather, in the middle of the growing season.”

BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES | FINANCIAL INCENTIVE

Farm stewardship program expands to cover new production practices

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

More beneficial management practices have been added to Saskatchewan’s farm stewardship program to help producers maintain the environmental integrity of their land.

The program, funded by the federal and provincial governments under Growing Forward 2, provides financial help to producers who implement BMPs that maintain or improve the soil, water or air quality, or biodiversity resources.

Growing Forward 2 takes over from the previous five-year program that offered similar funding.

L a s t w e e k , t h e g ov e r n m e n t s announced the $4.6-million-peryear program now contains precision farming and land management BMPs. For example, variable rate irrigation technology is eligible for 30 percent funding of eligible costs to a maximum of $15,000. Variable rate mapping is also eligible for 30 percent to a maximum rebate of $2,000.

Also new this year is funding for riparian area grazing management and fencing. Producers are eligible for a rebate of 50 percent of eligible costs to a maximum of $5,000.

As well, the program now offers 50 percent of eligible costs, including engineering and construction of a

berm and pad for storage areas, for used oil, filter and fluid storage. The maximum rebate is $3,000.

“The farm stewardship program recognizes that good environmental practices and a successful agriculture sector go hand-in-hand,” said provincial agriculture minister Lyle Stewart.

Other BMPs have been discontinued because they are considered common farming practice. Those relating to wells and livestock watering systems have been moved to the Farm and Ranch Water Infrastructure Program.

In total, the program includes 18 BMPs in six categories.

To be eligible, applicants must have

had an environmental farm plan done within the last 10 years either individually or through an agri-environmental group plan. Individuals must own or control at least 320 acres and earn a minimum of $35,000 in farm income in the year of application.

Some BMPs require pre-approval; requests must be submitted by June 30, 2017.

Projects that don’t require preapproval should be completed and applications submitted by Jan. 31, 2018.

After months of yearning for it, farmers now have better opportunities to move crops.

However, many farmers will have the excruciating task of trying to balance seeding with their desperate need to bring in cash to the farm. This is the easiest and worst time of the year to move crop.

“It may make for an intense seeding period, because in some areas they haven’t been able to move much all winter, so everybody still has to move for cash flow,” said Brian Voth of AgriTrend Marketing.

Farmers are reporting that grain elevators and other crop buyers are interested again in buying crops and are offering acceptable, if poor, basis levels.

Analyst John De Pape, of Farmers Advanced Risk Management Co. says his FARMCo index pegged average prairie canola basis at $35 per tonne under and wheat at $1.75 per bushel under in the week of April 30.

It was much improved from deep

winter lows of more than $2 per bushel under for wheat and more than $60 per tonne under for canola.

With delivery possible in many locations and basis levels that are not terrible, farmers who need money this growing season should try to move crop soon.

“You’re going to want to bring in the canola now, and wheat,” said De Pape, who expects to see the best old crop basis levels appear in late May as seeding becomes most intense and farmers become too busy to deliver grain or even think about arranging delivery.

Once the crop is in the ground and farmers have more time, buyers might start worsening the basis again.

Analysts said delivery opportunities and better basis levels have been expected this spring because the railways can more easily haul crops in good weather and farmers become less willing to haul to the elevator.

However, they are still pleased to see the improvement actually occurring.

Jon Driedger of FarmLink Marketing said farmers have opportunities to deliver but should call around

more than they probably want to at seeding time.

Basis levels can vary a lot from one elevator to the next.

“We’ve been seeing a lot of variability,” said Driedger.

The main factor seems to be whether a particular elevator point has a train coming in. Many elevators are still nearly full.

A second factor can be the approach of the elevator company. Driedger said one line company recently swallowed all increases in canola futures prices with expanded basis charges, so farmers looking only at their cash price wouldn’t have seen the rally that was occurring.

However, they could have grabbed the gains if they called other local elevators.

Wild Oats analyst John Duvenaud said there are many weird dynamics on the Prairies as the clogged system flushes out section by section and different shipping channels open.

One particular wrinkle seems to be the impact of the new federal rules on grain car movement, which force

MPOWER MP O ERR® He OW erbbicciddes:

the railways to move a certain amount of grain but do not define where it must go.

That seems to be causing the railways to focus on a few routes at the expense of others, which means points that rely on unfavoured destinations have trouble moving product.

“The railroads are saying where the cars are going to go,” said Duvenaud.

De Pape said Manitoba and the eastern Prairies have seen noticeably better basis improvement than western areas, which he attributes partially to Thunder Bay going back into business.

Voth said he also noticed peppy Manitoba basis and delivery, which he attributed to the plethora of delivery markets that Manitoba crops can reach but other prairie farmers don’t have access to.

Eastern Manitoba farmers can ship to Minnesota oat buyers, to North Dakota, Saskatchewan and Manitoba canola crushing plants, to elevators on railroads that are hauling east to Thunder Bay, south to the United States and west to the

Same active as:

Pacific coast.

Those market choices have meant that eastern Manitoba basis bids have been better this winter than across the rest of the Prairies.

“We’re kind of in a bubble. That’s become obvious in the last 12 months,” said Voth.

Farmers in the central Prairies are now celebrating $35 under basis for canola, but farmers in eastern Manitoba could get plus $3 per tonne at Bunge’s Altona plant and plus $8 at the plant in Havelock, Minn., in the week of April 30.

“In a year when you have 18 million tonnes of canola … it’s totally mind boggling to see a plus basis,” said Voth.

Duvenaud said the basis improvement is a relief to thousands of farmers who have been crop rich but cash poor. The glut of crops this winter meant that farmers received poor prices even if they could move a crop “In February you were lucky to get $11.50 (per bushel) flax, but now it’s $14 f.o.b. anywhere on the Prairies,” said Duvenaud.

A shortage of feed barley and transportation drives up feeders’ costs. |

FEED BARLEY | MARKETING

Send feed barley west, Sask. farmers advised Alberta feedlots scramble for trucks | A slow start to spring could see more barley acres, weakening prices

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

The next six weeks will likely be the best time to sell feed barley this year, says an Alberta grain merchandiser.

In most years, western Canadian feed barley prices reach a low in February and peak in May. That historical trend is part of the story this year, but a shortage of grain trucking capacity has pushed prices even higher this spring.

“We can’t get enough trucks anymore to get the grain (barley) out of Saskatchewan and into Alberta,” said Jim Beusekom, owner of Market Place Commodities, a grain merchandising company in Lethbridge.

“The local guys (in southern Alberta), they keep selling. They can still access the market, but they keep asking more money for their grain…. If you’re in an area where a grain com-

pany is calling you and (it) has logistics to move your grain, seriously look at selling it.”

Feed barley prices in Lethbridge dipped to $150 per tonne in January, but have climbed steadily since then, hitting $200 a tonne in late April and early May. Beusekom said several factors are propping up prices: Barley moves directly from the farmgate to feedlots in Western Canada, so prices rise when it’s the least available. That often occurs in the spring because farmers are busy seeding and road bans are in place.

Southern Alberta feedlots have imported dried distiller grain corn from the United States for 20 to 30 percent of their ration for the last several years. The price jumped this year, and feedlots are buying more barley.

A lack of grain trucking has forced buyers to pay more for feed barley.

“It’s a bit of a giant funnel effect. All the grain that’s close to Lethbridge, stocks are not that high at all. They ( f a r m e r s ) h av e b e e n s e l l i n g ,” Beusekom said.

“Now, as we have to go further out, we’re trying to find more trucks and compete against other commodities to get the trucks…. We have to pay a lot of money for truck freight to get it out of areas in central and northern Alberta and Saskatchewan.”

Barley stocks are substantially higher than last year, thanks to a bumper harvest last year. Statistics Canada reported May 5 that barley stocks were 4.3 million tonnes as of March 31, up from 3.04 million tonnes last year.

The feed barley price spike may persist, despite oversupply, because buyers will likely struggle with freight logistics for two more months, Beusekom said.

“I think it will last until summer,

until that July time frame,” he said, which is when the number of cattle on feed declines seasonally.

Statistics Canada is forecasting acreage of 6.3 million, down from 7.08 million in 2013 and 7.4 million in 2012. Only a decade ago, Canadian farmers seeded nearly 11 million acres of barley.

Jason Skotheim, a grower from Spruce Home, Sask., said a decline in Canadian cattle numbers partially explains barley’s decline.

“We used to have cattle and barley was an absolute fixture within our rotation,” said Skotheim, vice-chair of the Saskatchewan Barley Development Commission.

“You (found) a way of feeding it to your own cattle or (sold it).”

Brian Otto, Barley Council of Canada chair and a farmer from Warner, Alta., said the slow start to spring could push barley acres higher.

Canaryseed figures out of whack: official

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Statistics Canada’s canaryseed acreage estimates are becoming a joke, says a leading processor of the crop.

“This is the fourth year that I’ve felt it’s completely out of whack, and we never do the big (price) run people are waiting for,” said David Nobbs, general manager of Canpulse Foods.

Statistics Canada is forecasting 245,000 acres of the crop, up from last year’s 210,000 acres.

“The number is completely incorrect,” said Nobbs, who is also chair of the Canaryseed Development Commission of Saskatchewan.

He believes farmers will plant 400,000 acres, up from 325,000 acres last year.

“Every year we start the year thinking there’s not enough canaryseed to meet the needs of the market, and every year we seem to meet it,” said Nobbs.

Gene Lahey, a grower from Lacadena, Sask., thinks Statistics Canada is understating acreage but also that Nobbs might be overstating it.

“We’ve been in the heart of canary

country for years and I don’t see the fields that I used to,” he said.

Lahey is planting 640 acres of the crop, which is what he seeded last year. He expects total Canadian plantings will be in the low-300,000 acre range.

“Dave always thinks there is quite a bit more, and there could be, I guess.

It always seems to dwindle in,” said Lahey, vice-chair of the commission.

Agriculture Canada forecasts 3,000 tonnes of carryout in 2013-14. However, Nobbs believes growers will have 50,000 tonnes in their bins and processors another 20,000 tonnes.

That’s why prices are 21 cents a pound instead of 50 cents a lb., which is where they would be if carryout was that paltry.

Statistics Canada March 31 stocks report pegged canaryseed stocks at

39,000 tonnes, less than half the 85,000 tonnes at the same time last year. If correct, it indicates Nobbs’ year end stocks forecast would be high.

As for Statistics Canada’s spring planting survey procedure, Nobbs thinks it is either flawed or growers are attempting to manipulate the market.

“A lot of farmers like to see the number low, but the problem is it really doesn’t help the market at the end of the day,” he said.

Buyers rely on their own numbers, which are usually much higher than Statistics Canada’s.

Nobbs doesn’t expect the price rally that some analysts are forecasting.

Some processors are looking for tonnes, but growers have stopped selling. They appear to be waiting for a run on prices. Nobbs expects they will start selling in late June after spraying is done, which could temporarily depress prices.

Lahey believes Nobbs’ price outlook will prove fairly accurate.

“I hope it’s higher, but I think he’s probably pretty close,” he said.

Lahey can make money on canaryseed even at 21 cents per lb., as long

as he gets average yields. It still pencils in better than most crops. He believes canaryseed prices will rise if durum goes up.

However, Nobbs said the crop tends to track corn prices more closely, and the outlook for corn isn’t promising.

The 2013-14 canaryseed shipping program has been better than the previous year despite winter railway congestion, a trucker strike at the Port of Vancouver and the recent difficulty sending product to Mexico, Canada’s top customer.

Canadian National Railway and Canadian Pacific Railway are focusing on west coast grain movement.

They’re not interested in sending rail cars to Mexico because the turnaround time is too long and they have to meet government-imposed mandates for shipping grain.

Nobbs hopes the railway transportation mess has cleared up by summer because it is still a disaster from his vantage point in Kindersley, Sask., despite the government’s shipping mandate.

“It’s borderline hell. I don’t know what I did in a former life to deserve this,” he said.

ing into seeding the 20th of April.

Here we are the fifth of May and we haven’t really had a good whack at it,” he said. “The later the season goes, then people will start choosing the shorter season crops. That’s where barley fits in.”

Beusekom said the Statistics Canada acreage estimates are reasonable, considering price, stocks and barley’s competitiveness to other crops.

The barley market should return to normal if prairie farmers produce a normal crop, he said. Prices could stagnate for months if there’s another bumper crop.

Therefore, he’s encouraging growers to sell now.

“A lot of producers spent a lot of time being unhappy this winter about how low prices went,” he said.

“You could get into a situation this fall where there’s all kinds of feed again, so you’ll be wishing you did sell.”

MAY CANOLA GOES ROGUE

CROPS | MARKETING

A normal spread between the May and July canola futures contracts went wonky the last week of April when the May contract soared, unrelated to the cash market. Unique and unknown factors appeared as open interest collapsed when the contract went into its expiry period. Analysts say it demonstrates why farmers should get out of futures contracts at least a couple of weeks before the contract enters its delivery period.

If farmers needed an illustration of the dangers of getting caught in an expiring futures contract, the market just gave it to them.

As the May ICE Canada canola futures contract went into its final days, its price left the cash market far behind and rose dangerously into its own realm.

“There’s always the risk of fireworks if somebody is on the wrong side,” said Agri-Trend Marketing adviser Brian Voth of Altona, Man., about the w i ld be hav i o u r o f May c a n o la

futures, which began in the last week of April.

“The May contract was a broken contract at that point.”

Broker Errol Anderson of Pro Market Communications had the same view.

“Big gainers, big losers: that’s the danger of a front month.… A few players are left and some of them are putting the boots to the others.”

A complicated process takes place when futures contracts, which are always tied to specific expiry dates, begin to wind down. Options contracts based off the futures contract expire, triggering possible moves by

options players in the futures market.

People who have bought futures contracts can “stand for delivery” on the first notice day, triggering actual, physical deliveries of grain or the purchase and sale of physical grain already in store.

Anyone with open positions can find it hard to close them because most contract users will have closed their own positions and “rolled” to the next contract.

Few players are left and surprising things can occur.

It’s what most in the markets say happened with the May contract, although there are many theories about what actually took place.

Somebody appears to have aggressively bought long May futures, driving its price far higher than what could be explained by any move in the cash or other contract months.

Until the last week of April, the May contract had held what seemed to be a sensible $5-$10 per tonne discount to the July contract. This provided carry in the market, which rewarded farmers for holding canola on the farm.

However, the May contract then suddenly surged compared to July, reversing the discount into a premium with jolting, wide intraday price swings and heavy volume, while open interest collapsed.

Jon Driedger of FarmLink Marketing Solutions said one danger of expiring futures contracts is that they can seem to be stable and then go wild.

“There was big carry (between May and July) all year, the fundamentals to justify it, then all of a sudden you’ve got this really wacky spread action,” said Driedger.

Analyst John De Pape of Farmco in Winnipeg said such explosive action unconnected to the cash markets is a “technical delivery market event” and a unique phenomenon created by the remaining long and short position holders of the contract.

“You never really know all the details,” said De Pape.

“It’s just a few players at the end.”

However, he said the situation highlights the danger to market players, especially small ones like farmers, of playing in the markets without professional help.

He uses swap contracts with a major financial firm to avoid those risks. They are futures price-based contracts that are wound up before the futures expiry period dawns.

Driedger said farmers using brokers and advisers usually get calls a week or two before the expiry period appears. It’s a call a farmer should take and heed.

“A good broker is going to keep you out of trouble,” said Driedger.

Some farmers use discount brokerages, but Driedger said those who use futures contracts without broker advice must pay close attention to risks such as the one that hit the May contract to avoid being caught on the wrong foot.

“Online (discount brokerage) is cheap and it’s pretty easy, but unless you’re watching the stuff and you know what you are doing, (there are many risks).”

Analysts and brokers say futures are a generally safe way to hedge risk, but hedgers should always close their positions before the technically challenging expiry period begins.

Demand for cash advances at an all-time high Cash shortage | Lack of rail service sees more than $270 million advanced to Canadian farmers in April

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

There is no let-up in the demand for cash advances as farmers head into a new planting season.

“It’s certainly appreciated that the federal government has this program and farmers are using it like they’ve never used it before,” said Rick White, general manager of the Canadian Canola Growers Association, which administers the Advance Payments Program.

The 2013-14 program, which ended March 31, was used by 12,738 farmers, up from 10,178 the previous year.

RICK WHITE CANADIAN CANOLA GROWERS ASSOCIATION

Growers were advanced $1.6 billion, up from $1.1 billion the previous year.

“It has never been higher,” said White. “That is driven largely by the lack of rail service that the West has experienced this year.”

The 2014-15 program is also starting off with a bang. Approximately

Weighted average steer prices rose $1.75 to $148 per hundredweight in light to moderate trade, and heifers were steady at $145.

U.S. buyers did not actively bid.

Calf numbers increased.

The cash-to-futures basis narrowed $1 to -$11.79.

The basis is expected to strengthen sharply, closer to the five-year average of -$4.45.

The weekly sales volume rose 44 percent to 12,153 head, which was three percent smaller than the same week last year.

Weekly western Canadian fed slaughter to April 26 rose 23 percent to 36,735 head. Slaughter is up seven percent this year.

Weekly exports were down 25 percent at 9,236 head to April 19, which was a holiday-shortened week.

Packers have maintained cut-out values to improve margins, but retailers are struggling to increase beef prices.

North American market ready supply should increase, but the number of cattle that traded on the cash market should remain limited.

Increased supply could weaken live cattle prices, but an improved basis should remove some of the sting.

COWS POST RECORDS Cows were $2-$4 higher with D1, D2 ranging $100-$114 to average $107 and D3s ranging $90-$105 to average $96.33.

Rail grade cows were $200-$205.

Western Canadian cow slaughter totalled 4,861 head, which was the fourth week in a row that the total was below last year.

Butcher bulls averaged $112.36.

Canadian bull exports to the United States are up 19 percent this year over last year, while western Canadian bull slaughter is up nine percent.

Strong prices for butcher bulls have encouraged producers to upgrade to new genetics. Also, the cold winter caused reproductive issues.

Producers who fatten cattle on grass have bought record high priced cattle and will need historically high feeder prices to see a profit.

Increased financial risk brings with it a need to protect margins.

Forward delivery contracts for yearlings over the past couple of weeks have risen $3-$5.

More specifically, 1,000 lb. steers for August-September delivery are now in the low $170s, up from the upper $160s.

Some calves have been offered for late fall delivery, but from a buyer’s standpoint there is added market risk. Feedlots are unable to contract calves to the packers because no fed contracts are currently being offered out past May. Chicago feeder futures are volatile, but prices last week suggested that prices for 750-775 lb. steers could be a record $1.92 per lb. this fall in the U.S. Converted to Canadian dollars, this equates to $2.11 per lb., less a basis.

The basis has been volatile, but a seasonal basis of -$5 per cwt. would equate to 750 lb. steer prices in Alberta at $2.06 per lb. this fall.

U.S. BEEF PRICES FALL The U.S. Choice cutout was $230.34 US per cwt., down $3.46, and Select was $220.98, down $1.09.

Prices rose early in the week but fell sharply May 1 with light to moderate demand and moderate to heavy offerings.

Reduced retail feature activity, coupled with larger U.S. slaughter, may keep buyers on the sidelines waiting for new discounts. U.S. slaughter was up 3.9 percent to 608,000 head.

Weekly Canadian cutout values to April 26 were not available.

The cold storage report released this week shows that frozen and chilled beef inventories April 1 were down 13 percent, or 3,540 tonnes from a year ago. This is expected to provide support to beef prices.

Montreal wholesale prices for this week were anticipated to be steady at $262-$264 Cdn per cwt.

FEEDER MARKET STRONG Prices for 550-650 pound steer have soared by one-third since the start of the year.

North American competition for bunk replacements and grass cattle remains strong, but feedlot margins are squeezed at these prices.

saw heavy cash advance activity right up until the end of March.”

White said this winter’s railway backlog is costing farmers a fortune.

The first $100,000 in cash advance money is interest-free, but there are a lot of advances exceeding $100,000 that are incurring interest.

He hasn’t seen any credible estimates about how much the rail backlog is costing farmers.

“Whatever it is, it’s a big number,” said White. “Short-term credit is fine, but you can only do that so long. The grain has got to move. Farmers need to get that grain sold and get that money in their pockets.”

Agriculture Canada is forecasting 22.5 million tonnes of total grains and oilseeds carryout for 2013-14, or 2.5 times the previous year’s ending stocks.

“That carryout is going to be frontloading the problem right onto the new crop that comes off in September,” said White. “Even a moderate crop next year is going to be a bumper just because of the carryout.”

Ottawa has turned down the association’s request to double the program’s individual limit to $800,000.

“The government has received the message and we respect their decision.”

CANFAX REPORT FED PRICES RISE

3,800 growers took $271 million in advances in April.

Applications are up by 200 from April 2013, but the dollar value is down slightly from last year’s $295 million because of lower commodity prices.

White said April is always a busy month for the program because the association takes pre-applications in March for growers holding off until the new year begins. There is normally a lull in applications in February and March for that reason.

“Usually it tapers off that time of the year as farmers wait for the new spring program to kick in,” he said.

HOGS LOWER Lower pork prices and ample supply pressured U.S. hog cash prices lower.

The Chicago hog futures market also fell. Funds sold as the price fell below a couple of technically important levels. Funds appear to be reversing the previous trend of betting that hog prices could rise and that cattle would fall.

Iowa-southern Minnesota hogs delivered to plants were about $84 US per hundredweight May 2, down from $87 April 25.

The U.S. pork cutout fell to $113.97 per cwt. May 2, down from $116.13 April 25.

U.S. estimated weekly slaughter for the week to May 3 was 2.019 million, up from 1.999 million the previous week. It was 2.091 million last year at the same time.

BISON STEADY The Canadian Bison Association said finished bison prices remained

stable with fewer than expected finished animals coming to market.

Grade A bulls in the desirable weight range reached a high of $4 Cdn per lb. hot hanging weight.

Grade A heifers sold at prices up to $3.85.

Cull cows and bulls sold as high as $2.50 per lb. hot hanging weight in limited trade.

Animals outside the desirable buyer specifications may be discounted.

LAMBS EASE LOWER Beaver Hill Auction in Tofield, Alta., reported that 326 sheep and 76 goats sold April 28.

Wool lambs lighter than 54 lb. were $160-$190 per cwt., 55-69 lb. were $175-$215, 70-85 lb. were $170-$210, 86-105 lb. were $150-$170 and 106 lb. and heavier were $144-$158.

Wool rams were $46-$96 per cwt.

Cull ewes were $40-$82 and bred ewes were $130-$160 per head.

Hair lambs lighter than 54 lb. were $145-$160 per cwt., 55-69 lb. were $165-$215, 70-85 lb. were $150-$192,

86-105 lb. were $145-$158 and 106 lb. and heavier were $140-$149.

Hair rams were $46-$93 per cwt.

Cull ewes were $42-$70 and ewelamb families were $150-$200 per unit.

Feeder kids lighter than 60 lb. were $195-$225. Good kid goats lighter than 70 lb. were $210-$240. Those heavier than 70 lb. were $210-$250 per cwt.

Nannies were $65-$110 per cwt. Billies were $85-$137.50.

Ontario Stockyards Inc. reported 2,447 sheep and lambs and 52 goats traded April 28. New crops sold under pressure from last week’s high.

All heavy lambs sold actively at slightly lower prices.

Sheep traded barely steady. Good kid goats sold in premium ranges.

RESEARCH | SCIENCE

CRAIG’S VIEW

Credible publications must find truth among scientific ‘facts’

C

onsider the source.

How often do we use that old adage, particularly when skeptical about something read or heard?

However, skepticism is increasingly well placed when it comes to digesting myriad “scientific studies” that are quoted by agricultural companies, industry groups and media.

Good science is necessary for good decisionmaking, and the agricultural industry has many knowledgeable, credible researchers working on its behalf.

The challenge for laypersons is to distinguish reliable science from the fake science that finds its way with increasing ease into socalled scientific journals and thence to social media and other pools in the endless information stream.

Journalist Tom Spears of Postmedia News aptly illustrated the challenge a few weeks ago.

He and colleagues at the Ottawa Citizen compiled a bogus scientific paper that combined the unlikely partner topics of geology and hematology. Spears sent the baffling bilge, largely plagiarized from various other sources, to 18 journals. Several offered to publish it — for a fee.

Spears declined the offer, of course, but how many scientists under pressure to publish, and how many faux scientists with their own agendas, publish material that hasn’t been peer reviewed or is simply false?

Among those apparently willing to publish semi-scientific work alongside unintelligible drivel are journals with plausible names like Science Journal of Agricultural Research and Management and American Journal of Scientific Research.

“Science-based” decisions are always urged in debate over controversial agricultural issues such as genetic modification, pesticide use, bee health and farming’s role in climate change.

Yet it is increasingly apparent that the science touted by one faction is not necessarily the sci-

ence accepted by another, and the science reported through social media might be another ilk entirely.

Gone are the days when information labelled as a “scientific study” was automatically accepted by the public as reliable. We exist in a world where data must be carefully scrutinized to evaluate its worth, and rightly so.

Professional journalists can help in that endeavour, as can experts in the specific field involved. However, scientists and researchers themselves have a responsibility to publish only in credible journals and also to explain their results in generally accessible terms.

As well, they must be free to do so without muzzles applied by government or the companies that partially fund research projects.

Those who use public money for research and discovery must be able to reveal and discuss their findings with that same public.

Complicating the whole picture of credible, peer-reviewed research is the public’s skepticism in the face of science that indicates something is safe or healthy in one study and dangerous or unhealthy in the next.

Such is the nature of scientific discovery, but what we don’t generally consider amid this confusing array is that science is becoming more accurate and specialized. Theories are revised as more is known. It’s a strength often seen as a weakness.

“Science may not be the only way of organizing and understanding our experience, but for accuracy it fares better than religion, politics and art,” says University of Virginia psychology professor Daniel Willingham.

So yes, the old adage is true, and never more so than when trying to understand science in this age of multimedia, social media and faux media.

Consider the source, indeed.

LABOUR | MAKE SHORT-TERM PROGRAM LONG TERM

Fix the Temporary Foreign Workers Program by making it permanent CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

Short-term solution to acute labour shortage should become a permanent immigration program

H

ere’s a thought: what if the Temporary Foreign Workers Program was no longer temporary?

Instead, participants would be allowed to bring their families over with them and settle down.

Timelines could be set to ensure workers actually stayed in their sponsored communities. Workers would be expected to stay in their employ-

er’s region for a minimum period of time, say five years, pending exceptional circumstances.

Employers, meanwhile, would need to help with the transition from home country to Canada by providing language training, educational opportunities and worker support.

Abusers of the program would risk stiff penalties: fines and even criminal charges if necessary.

The Temporary Foreign Workers Program should be a permanent immigration program, not a shortterm solution to an acute labour shortage that’s only going to get worse.

The fact of the matter is this country needs workers. Drive through towns on the Prairies and you‘ll see it first hand.

‘Help wanted’ signs are everywhere.

Critics of the idea will argue Canada should focus its efforts on training and retraining Canadians. It should develop programs that tap into underemployed population groups, such as Aboriginals, those with dis abilities and young Canadians.

It can take 12 months to train a ranch hand, but by the time they’re comfortable in the job, it’s time to go home I don’t disagree.

Even so, with Canadian birth rates continuing to decline and many of us refusing to move away from home to where the jobs are, I’m not convinced job training will be enough to fill the baby boomer void.

Let’s face it. Canada is under growing international pressure to contribute more to the global economy. Our resources, skills and expertise are a hot commodity.

As an agriculture reporter, I’m reminded daily of Canada’s need to step up to the plate to feed the growing world. With the world’s population expected to balloon to nine billion people by 2050, that’s a lot of mouths to feed.

The Temporary Foreign Workers Program, in its original form, was meant to attract skilled labour to Canada. As employment minister Jason Kenney has repeatedly re-

minded the House of Commons, most of the program’s workers hail from countries like the United States and the United Kingdom, with employees from Asian countries falling in behind.

They’re skilled workers who, while here, would contribute to the Canadian economy. They’d be employed.

So, why don’t we let them stay?

The number one complaint I hear from folks about the program (outside of the “they should have hired Canadians” lament) is employers are constantly training people for jobs because the system doesn’t line up with applications for citizenship.

Too often, they tell me, workers are forced to go home only months after their training is completed.

For example: it can take 12 months to train a herdsman, one rancher told me last week. By the time they’re

comfortable in the job, it’s time for them to go home and the ranch is back to square one.

For employers, this can be especially frustrating. Training doesn’t always come cheap and their investment isn’t guaranteed to stay long-term.

The result: people become expendable and a relationship between employer and employee doesn’t always develop.

Ottawa pundits will argue Canadian workers should take priority. The government, they insist, must develop a long-term employment strategy.

That long-term strategy should be immigration.

Canada prides itself on its multicultural identity. We revel in the fact we’re a “cultural mosaic” rather than a “melting pot” like our neighbours to the south.

Now it’s time for us as a country to prove it to the rest of the world. If we’re really as welcoming as we claim to be, we’ll let the workers stay.

& OPEN FORUM SUPPLY MANAGEMENT | NEW REPORT

AG TECHNOLOGY | PUBLIC DEBATE

Conference board report self serving

Crop Life sends wrong message with meeting

BY JAN SLOMP

T

he Conference Board of Canada embraces the mantra that “all growth is good.”

Its plan to change supply management for growth is a prescription for weakening, if not eliminating, the three pillars of supply management for dairy production in Canada — production controls, import tariffs and farmers’ cost of production pricing — to produce more milk, lower its price and increase exports.

The conference board claims to be an independent think-tank but is affiliated with the New York-based Conference Board, which is run by and for U.S.-based multinational corporations. While pretending to serve the public, it advocates for a suite of policies, such as dismantling dairy supply management, that promote corporate interests at the expense of the values and aspirations of Canadian people.

Dairy supply management had its beginnings in the 1960s, when dairy processors were using erratic milk hauling practices to depress farmgate prices paid to farmers.

Farmers were faced with delivering milk at whatever price they could get or lose it all.

Ontario and Quebec farmers protested and demanded government action. In 1969, a new system had the government regulate farmgate prices based on farmers’ cost of production in return for farmers producing a constant flow of high quality milk along with quotas to prevent overproduction. Since then, provincial milk marketing boards have successfully managed procurement, marketing, quotas, quality control and

Conference Board of Canada report on supply management is reportedly too pro-big business. | FILE PHOTO government regulation.

Canada’s dairy supply management operates smoothly, efficiently and sustainably without government subsidies, in contrast to other Canadian agricultural sectors, where AgriStability payments are often needed to support farm incomes and overcome depressed commodity prices.

The conference board now promotes increasing dairy production beyond Canadian needs to export.

There is definitely capacity in Canada to produce a lot more milk, but what kind of export markets could we pursue, what kind of programs would be required to obtain those markets and what net benefits would there be for various players in the system?

Only a small portion of the world’s

milk production crosses borders because it is a bulky perishable product. Most exports depend on subsidies, often obscured as indirect production supports to comply with trade agreements.

American dairy farmers receive U.S. farm bill-related payments that nearly double their milk cheques.

European subsidies provide dairy farmers a base income, allowing them to survive on lower farmgate prices.

The exception is New Zealand, a major dairy exporter with few or no subsidies. With the world’s lowest production cost because of its lack of winters, it can sell at the world’s lowest farmgate prices.

Dismantling dairy supply management would be costly for Canadian taxpayers. To compete internation-

ally, we would have to match the massive subsidies given by the U.S. and European countries. Dairy farmers in Canada would receive lower prices for milk, be subjected to less transparent pricing and require government bail-out programs such as AgriStability to keep operating.

Ironically, the conference board’s dairy plan is modelled after the deregulated export-oriented hog and beef sectors, which have not only failed to grow but have seen a steady decline punctuated by several crises over the past 15 years.

The conference board suggests that an export-oriented dairy system with lower farmgate prices would result in lower prices for consumers. In reality, retailers charge what the market will bear. New Zealand consumers pay among the highest prices for dairy in spite of their farmers’ low cost of production.

Canadians value dairy supply management because they enjoy a steady supply of high quality products for a reasonable price. An unregulated dairy market would centralize production, processing and distribution, requiring consumers in distant areas to pay more because of transportation and storage costs.

Dismantling dairy supply management would help companies affiliated with the conference board, such as food processors and retailers, and those industries that have their eyes on massive concessions at the trade deal table. Their gain would be a huge loss for Canadian citizens and Canadian dairy farmers.

REAL ESTATE | BUY OR SELL

Deciding whether to cash in on high land prices HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

F

armland price increases have been nothing short of startling in recent years. You know land has become a speculative commodity when non-farmers who don’t know an air drill from a combine are making purchases.

Here’s a recent unsolicited email: “Dear Mr. Kevin Hursh: “I read your essay about farmland price trend. Not long ago, I visited a farm in SK. It is located at XXX. “The farm covers 160 acres, of which, 110 acres are arable land. The farm has a house with a garage and an old tractor, but the building was built in 1920s. The soil is black colour, no irrigation.

“ T h e ow n e r o f f e r s a p r i c e o f $249,000. How do you evaluate this price?”

For landowners, these would seem to be the best of times. There are lots of eager buyers, locally and across the country.

However, there’s also an uneasy recognition that prices are unlikely to rise forever, or at least, the rate of increase is likely to moderate. If you’re going to ultimately sell out, is now the time?

Should you sell the farm, rent the farm or help the next generation that wants to take over the farm? It’s a decision with which many are grappling.

Even modest farmland holdings can now be worth millions of dollars.

This has long been the case in Ontario, British Columbia and Quebec, but it’s a more recent occurrence on the Prairies and particularly in Saskatchewan.

Suddenly, even some small farmers are millionaires, at least on paper, and it can be a great temptation to cash in as reports circulate about the latest high-priced land deal.

Farmland has typically been worth more than its productive value. In addition to being a revenue generating asset, it’s also an investment.

There have been some amazing returns for grain producers in the last few years, but costs and risks keep increasing.

Unless you were updating varieties, seed used to come from the previous year’s production. However, canola seed now costs $50 to $60 an acre, which would have been unconscionable not that long ago.

As well, most crops didn’t receive fungicide applications in the past, and fertilizer use was at much lower levels. The price tag for both wasn’t as exorbitant.

Every spring, we bury a bunch of money in the ground and hope for the best. The annual input investment is huge, compared to what a typical wage earner makes in the city.

It’s not a game for the faint of heart.

Equipment costs have also escalated, and if you think you’ll get by with older equipment, beware of the cost of parts and labour. An older tractor

or combine might look like a bargain, but the repair bill could rival the purchase price.

There’s never a time when some piece of equipment shouldn’t be replaced. If you aren’t making continual upgrades, at some point the entire equipment fleet is inadequate and a huge outlay will be needed to stay in business. This is an exit point for many producers.

Meanwhile, the weather and market risk seems higher than ever. Seeding delays are the current worry, winter has been excruciatingly slow to leave and the value of any commodity you’re growing could be dramatically lower or higher in a matter of weeks or even days.

A look through the auction sale listings will find some estate sales and retirements due to advancing age, but there are also cases where it’s a strategic decision to get out while the getting is good.

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

ROBERT ARNASON, REPORTER

Controversial subjects such as pesticides need transparency, not secrecy

C

rop Life Canada will hold its Spring Dialogue Days in Ottawa May 6-8, in which industry reps will discuss neonicotinoids and other agricultural technology issues with academics, farmers and representatives from the Pest Management Regulatory Agency.

However, the discussions will not be reported in the media because journalists are not welcome at the event. The organization said the presence of reporters would curtail discussion, and certain speakers might not participate if media attended the event.

Crop Life Canada has a right to conduct meetings in private, but doing so only exacerbates the public’s suspicions, considering that a sizable percentage of Canadians don’t trust agricultural chemical companies or the integrity of federal regulators.

Crop Life America is also holding a forum in May, but the crop protection association is taking the opposite approach.

In an effort to bring new voices into the room, Crop Life America has invited environmental groups such as the Nature Conservancy and members of the media to speak at its National Policy Conference. The meeting will address relevant and difficult topics, such as, Consumers and Farmers: Where did it All Go Wrong?

A media representative from Al Jazeera America will act as moderator for the event.

Ted Menzies, a former Conservative MP from Alberta, became Crop Life Canada’s president in January.

He said he wanted to transform the organization and bridge the gap between organic and conventional agriculture in Canada.

“I am hoping I can be part of changing that ‘them versus us’ debate.”

If those are more than words, Menzies might want to pay attention to the actions of Crop Life America.

Holding private meetings in Ottawa, with only true believers in attendance, does nothing to burnish the credibility of Crop Life Canada or plant science companies.

When it comes to genetically modified crops and pesticides, the trade association has repeatedly said Canadians should trust the science.

Crop Life Canada might convince more people to listen to the science if it was willing to listen to dissenting voices.

April 28 was the National Day of Mourning. Each year we honour Canadian workers injured or killed on the job, most of them anyway.

We do not honour the farm, ranch and feedlot workers in Alberta who are killed or seriously injured at work.

Why don’t we honour these workers?

Because Alberta’s Farm and Ranch lobby considers these workers to be just another input, such as manure, chemicals and fuel.

Just another writeoff and the Alberta government does their bidding.

Only WCB (Workers’ Compensa-

tion Board) accepted fatalities are included in the Day of Mourning numbers and most of Alberta’s Farmworkers are not covered by WCB so they are not counted. They just kind of disappear.

Alberta farm workers are persons, they have family and friends who mourn them and miss them.

These workers are excluded from the OHS (Occupational Health and Safety) scheme, mandatory WCB, minimum pay, minimum age, rest breaks, vacation pay, holiday pay, the right to know about dangers, the right to refuse dangerous work, the right to join a union and the right to a workplace investigation when they meet with a serious injury or death.

Surely these Alberta workers are at least worthy of having their lost lives included in our National Day of Mourning.

We may work in Alberta but we are Canadians.

LEFT WINGING IT To the Editor: After His April 24 column in the WP, it would be interesting to see a definition of the “left wing crowd” men-

tioned by Kevin Hursh.

In the past it was suspected that “left wingers” were the first to point out the declining fish stocks on the East Coast and it was also “left wingers” who mentioned human involvement in climate change.

In Alberta, “left wingers” were accused of predicting rising electric bills with the deregulation of that industry. In all three instances, “left wingers” were right.

With such a diversity of issues “left wingers” must be a very diverse crowd but the impression I get from Kevin’s comments is that “left wingers” are always wrong.

Is it possible that the old saying about it being a human trait that “if something is not working more of the same activity will fix things”.

It is obvious that the present grain transportation system is not working for farmers, so should we not be looking at any solution or do we need more deregulation and privatization?

I would like to see Mr. Hursh’s definition of left wingers. Perhaps that will help me understand his thinking. In the meantime, is it possible that most farmers don’t care whether a solution is left or right as long as it works?

Could it be that many, like me, belong to the Pragmatist Party and don’t care about left or right and instead focus on the results?

As a mature gentleman once told me, “words are cheap but action takes cash”.

To the Editor: I was disappointed in the commentary by Kevin Hursh, “Will wheat board politics hinder industry progress?” (WP April 24), which made several false and damaging statements about the Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission (SWDC).

Hursh’s suggestion that SWDC is pursuing a political agenda and is not focused on its core mandate of research and market development is false.

In fact, the SWDC board of directors is actively considering a number of proposals from the research community with other funding agencies such as the Western Grains Research Foundation (WGRF).

I challenge Hursh to produce a single example of producer check-off funds being used by SWDC for political purposes.

The election process was open to all registered wheat producers and while voter turnout was relatively low, it was very similar to other commission elections.

Hursh’s contention that we stayed away from the recent Canada Grains Council symposium in Winnipeg for ideological reasons is also incorrect.

In fact, SWDC had previously scheduled a board of directors meeting and strategic planning session on those dates.

We decided it was more important to focus on completing the start-up phase of the commission instead of spending producer check-off dollars to attend a conference.

All SWDC directors attended a

OPINION UPOV-91 session on April 17 in Saskatoon sponsored by AG-West Bio and the University of Saskatchewan as well as the recent Grain Transportation Summit in Saskatoon, hosted by the U of S. Perhaps most troubling is that Hursh feels he can question the track record of the commission based on our absence from a conference and a number of false assumptions about what we might do, instead of our actual performance.

I can assure him that the SWDC board is committed to creating value for Saskatchewan wheat producers through targeted investments of check-off funds and would urge him to stick to the facts.

This is in response to Elaine Sloan’s April 24 letter to the Editor. It is my opinion that she tries to make some arguments that are false and misleading.

As for Kevin Hursh being in la-la land, that is totally false. He is a common sense farmer who is very knowledgeable in many things relevant to the industry.

No doubt, Monsanto is out to control the world’s seed supply. However, I would like to see some documented statistics as to how many farmers have committed suicide because they can’t afford seed.

Also she groups organic and GMO together. This is totally false, as the two have no relationship whatsoever.

GMO is the altering and mixing of genes.

Organic is farming without the use of chemicals. I am old enough to remember farming without chemicals. The fences were choked with weeds and every time the wind blew the land was a half a mile in the air.

The yields were reduced as well.

If we all went organic, there would be a lot more hungry people in the world.

We could argue the logistics of organic versus conventional farming practices forever but that old horse has been flogged to death.

lobalization is having an impact on the Christian church, though Christians in the Northern Hemisphere have little understanding of how this is happening, according to Philip Jenkins.

His book, The Next Christendom:

The Coming of Global Christianity, addresses this shortfall.

One-third of the world’s population was Christian In 2010, and Christianity is expected to remain the largest world religion into the foreseeable future. However, the centre of gravity in the Christian world is shifting. In the coming decades the majority of believers will be neither white, nor Euro-American, nor European.

While there is a sense that Christianity is dying in the “north,” the opposite is true for southern countries in Africa, Latin America and Asia, where rapid rates of population growth are becoming apparent.

However, the Christianity evolving

in these countries is “more conservative in terms of both beliefs and moral teachings” because of different cultural and political contexts.

Many face the constant danger of living in divided societies with Muslim or Hindu neighbours, of living in poverty and hunger and persecutions. The scriptures speak directly to these people’s situation in ways we can’t understand.

The first century church developed in the context of its time, and changed when it moved into Europe in the Middle Ages. Each group of believers thought theirs “was the only correct version of the Christian truth.”

The learning curves for all of us are steep, but we have the capacity to broaden our thinking.

Jenkins quotes an adage from Russia: “Christianity is never as weak as it appears, nor as strong as it appears.”

He concludes: “Christianity demonstrates a breath-taking ability to transform weakness into strength.”

FARM FINANCES | CAPITAL SHORTAGE

Low grain sales leave farmers cash Seeking capital | Farmers are turning to federal loan guarantees and say they plan to scale back machinery and purchases WINNIPEG (Reuters) — Western Canadian farmers still stuck with last year’s harvest are turning to the government for credit help in record numbers.

Insiders fear that the problems could cascade through the agricultural economy as the new planting season gets under way.

A record-breaking harvest and harsh winter last year overwhelmed Canada’s two big railways, backing up the flow of grain from western elevators to ports and leaving farmers with few buyers.

Up to $20 billion worth of crops were stuck in storage as of late March, according to the federal government.

Dealers and lenders are softening terms for farmers caught in the unusually severe cash crunch, but some fear it won’t be enough to stop a drop in fertilizer and machinery purchases that in turn could limit crop yields and weigh on land prices.

A government order in March requires Canadian National Railway and Canadian Pacific Railway to double weekly grain traffic, but that’s not enough to end a massive glut by the time the next harvest arrives.

“You’ll likely see some lasting impact of this transportation crisis,” said J.P. Gervais, an economist at Farm Credit Canada.

“We’re going to feel that into next year and the years after it.”

Delayed grain deliveries are prompting many farmers to take on additional debt for inputs this year or seek friendlier credit terms. | FILE PHOTO Farmers face an unpalatable choice between funding spring planting with debt and savings or cutting costs on seed and fertilizer and risking smaller returns.

Will Dodd, who farms with his father near Lanigan, Sask., ran out of storage after being unable to sell or move nearly 90 percent of last year’s harvest.

Until recently, Dodd had 20,000 bushels of barley piled on the ground, rising nine metres high.

“We’ve never had this kind of problem before,” he said.

The farm has dipped into savings to pay for planting and general costs

and also bought two bins costing $21,000 each. Seeding on his 4,000 acre farm will cost $750,000.

Dodd said he has worried that he may miss payments on a tractor he bought in the fall before the backlog’s magnitude became clear.

“We figure we can make it through about a year, and after that, if (cash flow) doesn’t improve, we’re going to be in trouble.”

Farmers have turned to the government like never before.

A record 12,739 western Canadian grain and oilseed farmers used loan guarantees through the federal Advance Payments Program in the

year ending March 31. The average cash advance was $128,500 for a total payout of $1.6 billion, the highest ever.

Farmers have long been big borrowers. Total Canadian farm debt has increased every year since 1993, hitting nearly $73 billion in 2012.

That trend, based on Statistics Canada data, reflects a long-term rise in land values fueled by low interest rates and strong grain prices in recent years.

However, Gervais said he has often heard farmers say they will scale back plans to buy additional land or machinery.

Farmland values, which have risen 21 straight years, are likely to slow their ascent, and machinery demand will likely cool by the second half of the year, Gervais said.

Cash-strapped farmers may be scouring auctions for more affordable buys, said Manitoba auctioneer Bill Klassen.

On April 19, he sold a 35-year-old tractor for $22,000, nearly twice what he expected. A new tractor with similar horsepower costs about $100,000.

storage equipment has risen, said Simon Wallan, vice-president of agricultural sales.

Rocky Mountain Dealerships Inc., which sells Case IH farm equipment made by CNH Industrial, is waiting to see if the cash crunch causes lost or just deferred sales, said chief financial officer David Ascott.

“We think there is enough liquidity in western Canadian farms to miti-

gate any short-term cash flow problems, but on the other hand, a lot of equipment demand is related to customer confidence,” he said.

The problem hasn’t yet resulted in a noticeable number of bankruptcies because most farmers have an abundance of grain to act as collateral against credit, said Randy James, manager of agriculture in Manitoba for Bank of Montreal.

FCC and BMO have rolled out programs this year to help farmers cope with the cash crunch, such as foregoing fees and deferring payments.

But then, it’s early to say what will happen.

“The repercussions usually come long after the event takes place,” James said.

Some farmers will scrimp on fertilizer and other costs, but others remain in good financial shape after years of strong prices, said Doug Chorney, president of Keystone Agricultural Producers in Manitoba.

The crunch has led Cargill Ltd., the Canadian arm of the global agribusiness giant, to take the unusual step of teaming with FCC to allow farmers to buy farm supplies now and pay for them after the harvest.

“We’ve done some unique things that we normally wouldn’t to help farmers with the cash flow they will require to plant a crop,” said Cargill Ltd. president Jeff Vassart.

Farmers who can afford fertilizer face an additional problem: railway bottlenecks are also slowing fertilizer movement, and supply is a problem after a shutdown in March at Agrium’s nitrogen plant in Carseland, Alta.

“Lack of cash and lack of fertilizer availability is going to affect yields down the road,” said Larry Weber, a farm analyst at Weber Commodities in Saskatchewan.

Agriculture Canada said April 17 it expects 16 percent less production this year, which would still amount to a big crop.

Statistics Canada reported last week that farmers intended to plant slightly less canola, which is one of the most expensive crops to grow.

The statistics surprised the trade, which was expecting the secondlargest seeding on record.

Soybean research money to target automotive sector New varieties | Focus will also be on developing soybeans with higher nutrient value

BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

DRESDEN, Ont. — The development of specialty soybean lines could make soybean oil an even more attractive feedstock for the automotive industry.

It’s a research focus for Istvan Rajcan and his team at the University of Guelph’s plant agriculture department.

They have received nearly $2 million from government and industry, and the soybean breeder said the automotive application is just one of several projects for which the money will be used.

“Probably within two years we could have a variety or varieties,” Rajcan said.

“What’s different about these lines is that they would reduce the cost of production for polyoil, which is used to make polyurethane.”

Soybean oil is already widely used in the auto industry to make foam for seat cushions, coatings and other materials.

The specialty varieties being developed are to contain a higher level of linoleic acid, which is the fatty acid needed for the process.

Soybean cyst nematode resistance will be another important focus.

The soil-borne pest has been a major concern for growers, and new forms of resistance are needed.

Other objectives include: • development of food-grade soy-

beans with higher levels of saponins and/or isoflavones • high-oil soybeans for biodiesel production • resistance to white mould Enhancing yield potential is a key consideration throughout the breeding program. Soybean yields have increased by .8 percent a year over the past 40 years, which is less than half the rate for corn.

Rajcan said there are three main reasons for the difference: • Corn is a C4 species, which makes it a more efficient photosynthesizer.

• Soybeans produce more protein and oil, which costs the plant more than producing high levels of starch.

• Corn benefits from hybrid vigour while soybeans do not.

Rajcan’s breeding program includes the use of genetic markers, a tool that streamlines the breeding process.

S u s t a i n a b l e a g r i c u l t u re h a s become a hot topic recently as the food sector tries to get on the right side of the issue with consumers.

The agricultural industry is taking the trend seriously.

The most recent manifestation was the pubic commitment that Walmart and several of its Fortune 500 suppliers made to sustainable agriculture goals in late April. For example: • Campbell’s Soup intends to reduce

• General Mills plans to expand the amount of farmland in the Field to Market sustainable agriculture initiative by 2.5 million acres by 2015.

• PepsiCo wants 500,000 acres of farmland in North America to qualify for its Sustainable Farming Initiative by 2016.

Grain Farmers of Ontario director Mark Brock says it’s safe to say this isn’t a meaningless trend, considering that global corporations regularly make announcements on sustainable agriculture.

“We’ve seed trends. I don’t see this as a fad,” said Brock.

“I think this is going to be commonplace because society wants to … feel good about going to the store and buying something that has a label saying. ‘sustainably produced.’ ” Grain handlers, commodity groups and farm organizations have responded to the trend in Canada by forming the Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Crops.

“What we found, over the course of the past few years, that sustainability is a topic that’s in the heart and minds of consumers,” said Chantelle Donahue, senior director of corporate affairs with Cargill Canada and vicechair of the roundtable. “It’s translating back to end users and up through the value chain, without one single definition of what it is.”

Working under the banner of the Canada Grains Council, roundtable members met officially for the first time this winter. They are developing a unified approach to sustainability instead of 20 separate projects for grain, oilseeds and pulse crops.

“Is there a way to have a national forum that we can co-ordinate and collaborate these initiatives, across the value chain, that will minimize the amount of burden (on) producer, grain handler or processor, but still meet end user or consumer requirements?” Donahue said.

A s a n e x a m p l e, U n i l e v e r a n nounced a couple of years ago that it planned to sustainably source all of its agricultural commodities by 2020, including soybeans. In response, Grain Farmers of Ontario began working on a sustainable soy program to satisfy Unilever’s expectations and sell product into Europe.

Brock said the organization realized it was simpler to tackle sustainability in a co-ordinated manner for a variety of crops and regions rather than develop a narrow approach just for Ontario soybean growers.

“We needed to pull this up a level

CHANTELLE DONAHUE CARGILL CANADA

and have a common national goal or some objectives in mind (so) we’re not reinventing the wheel across Canada with different programs,” said Brock, who co-chairs the roundtable.

Donahue said the Canada-European Union free trade deal, which was announced last fall, is an important consideration because EU customers are setting high standards for sustainable agricultural practices.

However, the deal wasn’t the impetus for the roundtable.

“They obviously are the ones that are a leader, from a sustainability perspective, but it’s broader than just Europe,” she said.

“This work was going on long before CETA was formally announced.”

Donahue said a small number of Canadian farmers are now receiving questionnaires from organizations such as the Canola Council of Canada, inquiring about agricultural practices related to sustainability.

Brock, who grows corn, soybeans and wheat on 1,400 acres in Ontario, said these kinds of expectations could become a normal aspect of crop production in Canada. The roundtable will need to collaborate with growers to smooth out the process.

“We need to get a feel for how producers are going to react to some of these requirements that we probably are going to see in the future,” he said.

“What’s manageable and what is not manageable.”

Growers shouldn’t view this as an unnecessary task, he added.

“I don’t see this as a burden from a producer standpoint but an opportunity…. There could be market opportunities in countries we don’t participate in now and just the ability to maintain markets.”

Cost will be one of the key questions for the roundtable: who will bear the additional cost to satisfy sustainability expectations and standards?

Donahue said roundtable members believe the entire grain industry, from grower to grain handler to processor, should share the costs.

“One of the core focus areas is that the cost and value of sustainability needs to be shared throughout the value chain,” she said.

“We see the solution to this as an all encompassing value chain solution, not one that focuses solely on the producer or processor.”

CANADA-EU TRADE | CHEESE

Quebec cheese makers fear EU imports, factory closures Imported raw milk cheese doesn’t have to meet CFIA standards and only three percent of imports are tested

BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

GUELPH, Ont. — Regulatory differences could put Canadian cheese makers at an unfair disadvantage if the proposed Canada-Europe Union trade agreement moves forward.

“I’m afraid that half of our 100 cheese factories in Quebec will disappear,” said Marie-Chantal Houde of Fromagerie Novelle France.

“This is a big issue for consumer health and the economic health of cheese factories in this country.”

Of special concern to Houde are raw milk cheeses. Thirteen of Quebec’s

MARIE-CHANTAL HOUDE FROMAGERIE NOVELLE FRANCE

110 cheese factories produce raw milk cheese. For six, it’s all they make.

Houde said domestic production is highly regulated, while cheeses that do not meet Canada’s stringent stan-

dards can be imported.

“The imported cheese standard should correspond with the CFIA’s (Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s) standard, but some cheeses are bypassed because of special agreements,” Houde said.

She told the April 22 Science to Policy: Raw Milk Case Study symposium that the Quebec industry has not been able to find out why this was allowed.

Jeff Farber, director of Health Canada’s Bureau of Microbial Hazards, said a temporary authorization was issued to two factories in France to ship raw milk cheese to Canada.

The official who made the decision is

not longer with the ministry, he added.

Houde said another concern is the CFIA’s practice of testing three percent of imported cheese batches.

Quebec has two standards for raw milk cheese, one governed by the CFIA for national distribution and one governed by the Ministère de l’Agriculture, des Pêcheries et de l’Alimentation Quebec for Quebec-only distribution.

Both have zero tolerance for listeria and salmonella, bacterial count limits and testing requirements.

There is a wide range of standards for raw milk and raw milk cheeses in the United States, where sale of the products is permitted, according to

SASKATCHEWAN’S TOP 10 WORST ROADS OF 2014

Catherine Donnelly, a nutritionist at the University of Vermont, and Ben Chapman, a North Carolina State University food safety expert.

They stressed the importance of education for farmers, processors and consumers as an alternative to regulation.

In Vermont, for instance, protocols for on-farm cheese makers were developed in 2009.

“We left it up to the cheese makers if and how the recommendations would be implemented, and then we went back to see what happened. There were improvements at every location,” Donnelly said.

COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT

FCC welcomes rural project proposals Applications are being accepted for the $1 million FCC AgriSpirit Fund until June 14. Selected projects will be announced in September. Rural community groups can summit a proposal for a capital project worth $5,000 to $25,000 for community enhancement.

Projects must meet specific criteria

and be completed before Dec. 31, 2016. Projects are based in communities with populations less than 150,000. Examples include buying equipment for emergency services and recreation centres to building care homes and playgrounds.

FCC received 866 applications last year and gave $1 million to 93 community groups. The organization has provided $7.5 million in funding to more than 700 projects since 2004.

For more information, visit www. fccagrispiritfund.ca.

1. Highway 24 Leoville

Canadian Automobile Association members have voted for Saskatchewan’s worst roads of the year.

Highway 24 near Leoville was at the top of the list, overtaking Highway 123 near Cumberland House, which was No. 1 last year. Leoville is located about 150 kilometres northwest of Prince Albert.

The third annual provincial campaign to find the worst roads received a record 4,651 votes this year from April 1-25.

The CAA sends the information to the provincial highways ministry in the hopes it will address the roads that are in most need of attention.

A road that qualifies for worst status needs to be overrun with potholes and ruts, have poor signage or pose a safety hazard to motorists.

ADVANCING WOMEN | SUCCESSFUL WOMEN

Women crack business barrier Winning career paths | Speakers at leadership conference share stories on how to seize opportunities when they arise

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

The appreciation of mentors and the ability to seize opportunities were common themes for a group of women who gathered for a leadership conference in Calgary April 28-29.

Each of the speakers at the Advancing Women conference has followed a different career path: making a few mistakes along the way but ultimately proving themselves in the world of agriculture.

Fran Burr, who is responsible for marketing Cargill’s AgHorizons business unit in Canada, has had a career spanning four decades.

“I have to say when I started in my ag career, gender was an issue, she said.

Job interviews were awkward and stereotyping was frustrating when she was told she would never last as Cargill’s first woman sales representative in Western Canada.

She was eventually promoted to sales manager, and a newspaper article described her as a “brainy and vivacious brunette.”

“As if being a brunette had anything to do with the fact that I was the first woman to hold such a senior sales agricultural position,” she said.

Times have changed for the better, and corporations are now looking at talent and experience rather than gender.

Many still have a policy of promoting from within, but sometimes it is hard to elevate women when there are not enough of them in the mid management ranges to groom for senior positions.

Mentors offering good advice were critical for her, and she learned to listen closely, especially when she was at a career crossroads and unsure whether she had the ability to take on new challenges.

2014

She believes in planning, seizing opportunities and forethought before making decisions.

“From my experience and watching others, their careers, from the sidelines, good career paths are not always about good planning. Sometimes plans get dumped by serendipity,” she said.

Senator JoAnne Buth also believes in opportunity.

“I did have goals, but I didn’t do any planning,” she said.

Bluth was president of the Canola Council of Canada from 2007-12 before prime minister Steven Harper appointed her to the Senate in 2012.

She first worked as a meat wrapper at Eaton’s in Winnipeg. She earned money to go to university and had a career that took her from the City of

Winnipeg, the Manitoba government and Agriculture Canada as an entomologist to DowElanco Canada doing insecticide and herbicide research before joining the canola council.

“There was no planning but more importantly, seizing opportunities,” she said.

In the Senate, she is involved in innovation in agriculture.

Innovation has driven Alison Sunstrom. She is co-chief executive officer of GrowSafe Systems.

“We are geeks, nerds and cowboys,” she said.

She calls herself a dream builder and a technology evangelist.

“I want our technology on every farm, but what we are very proud about is that we built a company that

is very profitable. We have virtually no debt,” she said.

At 29, she invented a way to exchange data before there was the internet. The concept earned her enough money to invest in other agricultural companies.

She joined GrowSafe in Airdrie, Alta., in 1999, and working with business partner Camiel Huisma, has expanded the technology around the world.

The company has invested $12 million in research and development with agribusiness, government and universities.

She worries about the future and profitability of agriculture and argued that it needs innovation. She has also learned how to hire the right kind of people to advance the business and

never shuns hard work.

“You’ve got to like working hard for 18 hours a day for yourself instead of eight hours for someone else.”

More importantly, she encourages other women to make mistakes, take risks and learn something new.

“Remember what is important and empower the next generation.”

Angela Santiago, the youngest of the group, said she never planned a career in agriculture. At age 42, she is CEO and co-founder of the Little Potato Co. near Edmonton.

When she was 24, she and her father started with an acre of specialty potatoes that they planted and harvested by hand.

Now they have 125 employees, grow specialty potatoes on 4,400 acres at Edmonton and produce 50 million pounds a year.

“I didn’t grow up thinking I couldn’t because I was a female. I thank my parents every day for that,” she said.

She joined an entrepreneur club to share information and ideas and seek support as a business owner. She set up a company advisory board for support and guidance in expanding the business.

She also uses a business coach to challenge her and make her accountable for decisions.

“There is a community that is still raising me,” she said.

Stricken with breast cancer at 39, she decided she needed more balance in her life.

A mother of four children, she decided to set up a vision board with pictures of four buckets representing herself, marriage, work and the farm so she could give attention to what is important to her.

“Goals are important, and I am still growing.”

EDAM, Sask. — Glen Foulds takes in a sweeping million dollar view from the porch of his rustic wooden cabin high above the North Saskatchewan River.

“My best holiday is just being out here and sitting on my chair watching the river and the animals,” he said of the farm, aptly named Paradise Acres.

Branding irons and antlers decorate the outside walls, while inside the two-storey home, an antique cook stove and oven are fueled by deadwood scattered around the half section farm.

The Foulds family, which has called this remote setting home for more than a century, grows feed and maintains pastures for a small commercial cow-calf herd and horses used for hauling.

They trace their ancestry back to Hudson Bay surveyor Peter Fidler from England, who married Mary Mackagonne, a Swampy Cree, and had 14 children.

Glen’s grandfather, Robert Foulds, came to Edam from the Red River settlement near Winnipeg, although he initially got only as far as Prince Albert, where he spent the winter hunkered down in dry holes along the riverbank.

Glen’s uncle, John Foulds, actually owned the farm, but said his father, George, was always involved.

“My dad never really owned, but (the family) farmed together,” said Glen, who grew up here as one of nine children and acquired the farm from John in 1964.

Today, Glen and his wife, Eileen, split their time between a modest home in Edam in winter and the farm in the growing season.

Their son, Kevin, and his wife, Marina, live in Edam but spend up to 10 days a month helping run the farm. Kevin works in the oil industry while Marina owns a hair salon.

For Kevin, the farm is a pastoral retreat and the place where he and his brother, Randy, grew up.

“Once you get to the farm, there’s no oil around there, it’s very quiet, very peaceful. It’s nice to get away from all the traffic,” he said.

For Marina, who grew up in town, the homestead opens a window to a simpler time.

“For me, it’s fun,” said Marina of the cabin, which only recently got power but remains without plumbing.

“It wasn’t work for me, it was fun.”

Inaccessible roads in winter are among the many challenges that farmers face here.

Glen recalled life as a boy before cellphones and TV, when horses, snowmobiles and tractors were the only way off the farm in winter.

The Foulds make regular treks through the snow to check animals, but a natural spring allows cattle access to water year round, and good fencing, some of it electrified, contain the herd.

Kevin and Marina Foulds have fulltime off-farm jobs but share farm duties.

The Foulds faced adversity when their family home burned to the ground in 1978, taking with it their cherished mementos but leaving the family unharmed.

“You do what you have to do when you have to do it,” Glen said of the tragedy.

The community stepped in with donations, including a quarter of beef, and the family moved in a cabin from another site.

Glen worked hard over the years to pay the bills by dabbling in ventures from raising sheep to trapping to snowmobile repairs.

He worked as a steam engineer at the Edam hospital while he and Eileen kept a large garden, sold eggs, trucked cream for grocery money and milked cows for the family.

Expansion was not a viable option.

“We had to go big or get out, that’s basically what happened,” said Eileen.

“We tried many things to make a living on the farm. Every time we tried, the government would put a (marketing) board on it or some restriction.”

They keep their workload to a minimum, supervising calving and then hauling cattle to the stockyards when they are market ready.

“We don’t have enough to do independent marketing or satellite selling,” said Kevin.

He said off-farm jobs and the small herd size, which once numbered as many as 80, minimized the damage from the BSE outbreak of 2003 and the resulting low prices.

Glen said the riverbank is best suited for cattle and hay, and the family maintains the grass in its natural state to reap the dividends.

“It never runs out. Tame hay will eventually run itself out, whereas natural grass never will,” he said.

Marina and Glen handle the baling, Kevin cuts the hay and Glen manages the fencing, much of which must be done by hand because of the sloped riverside location.

Now enjoying the slower pace, Eileen and Glen cherish their outdoor life and keep busy with hobbies of painting and restoring Case tractors. They have had opportunities to sell the farm but want to keep it for their children, eight grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

“It’s a place where kids can come and see how life was back then,” said Eileen.

Preheat oven to 350 F (180 C).

Thaw and cook the sausage in a large skillet or pan, according to package directions. Once cooked, place on a paper towel to absorb the fat while the other ingredients are sauteed.

Place one sausage patty in each cupcake liner. Trim the patties to fit flat in the bottom. The trim pieces can be placed in one or two other muffin cups.

Cook and brown the hash browns in the same pan as the sausage. Set aside. Roughly chop the vegetables and saute for about five minutes. Don’t cook the tomatoes, just chop.

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, add milk, salt, pepper, onion salt and hot sauce, then beat until well mixed.

Divide the vegetables between the cupcake liners, add some grated cheese and then spoon in the egg mixture. Top with the hash browns or bread crumbs and more cheese.

Bake at 350 F (180 C) for 30 minutes or until the eggs are set. An inserted knife should come out clean when eggs are cooked. Serve hot with fruit slices or cool and refrigerate. Reheat in a microwave for 60 seconds. They can also be frozen.

INSPIRATION | AUTHOR

Dream to write book turns into library of ink

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

One might picture historical novelists as research-oriented, introverted people who create while toiling among dusty archives.

Corinne Jeffery is more likely to stir up dust than toil within it.

The dynamic author of the Understanding Ursula trilogy of historical novels has been touring to promote her three books, and promote them she does.

“Hello sir, how are you? May I tell you about my book?”

Such is her extroverted approach at book signings, among them an appearance at the Lethbridge Chapters bookstore last month, where she rarely sits down and always maintains a conversation.

The three books, titled Arriving, Thriving and Choosing, documents five generations of the Werner family, starting with the patriarch who homesteaded land near Neudorf, Sask. The novels also involve locations in rural Manitoba and Alberta.

Jeffery said the first two books are creative non-fiction, while the final one is autobiographical.

She published the first one, covering 1909-19, in 2011, followed closely by the second, covering 1920-39 in 2012 and the last, encompassing 1940-89, in 2013.

Jeffery spent a year researching her novels and nine years writing them.

Her first career as a nurse educator involved writing reports and nurse training manuals. She began writing novels at age 57, although her authoring aspirations began much earlier.

“It was my dream. By the age of seven, I was telling everybody I was going to write a book. Nobody ever took me seriously. And it was supposed to be one book,” she said.

“When I began writing my Understanding Ursula trilogy, it was really for me…. It was a healing journey that I was embarking on. (But then) the whole idea of the healing journey sort of disappeared in the characters.”

Jeffery won’t reveal whether she is the eponymic Ursula. That is for readers to discover, she said.

Jeffery was born in Saskatchewan, raised in Manitoba and now lives in St. Albert, Alta. She said her farm background and life on the Prairies form the core of her novels: its hardships and its triumphs.

“I had first-hand experience with much of what pioneers experienced,” she said, noting there was no running water in the home where she grew up and the original homestead still has no electricity.

“That’s all real for me. My editor is convinced that my trilogy was in my heart and my mind and my soul all this time, and I agree with her. Everything in my life has culminated in this trilogy.”

The books, each of which has appeared on bestseller lists in Edmonton and Calgary, are published by Roadie Books of Edmonton.

Though Jeffery said readers have asked her to write prequels and sequels to the three books, she is ambivalent about the idea, partly because she is working on two other books.

Lords and Lepers is about “the condescension, sometimes subtly, but

more often blatantly conveyed by those who are aware that they have a lot and others have less and therefore that makes us less.”

The other one, Aidan’s Notebook, is a collaborative work she is writing with her grandson, Aidan. She intends to publish that one only for family.

Then again, Jeffery didn’t initially intend her trilogy to go beyond her own desk. With encouragement from her daughter, Sara, she came to take the advice she sometimes writes in dedications to buyers of her books: “Become the master of your destiny, not a victim of your history.”

8VHG DXWRPRWLYH ÀXLGV poison the earth!

Mother Nature is NOT pleased!

Used antifreeze is toxic; dumping it can cause serious water quality problems and harm people, pets and wildlife.

Water accounts for about one-eighth or 80,000 square kilometres of Saskatchewan’s total surface.

The province also boasts of having 44% of Canada’s total cultivated farmland and a thriving crop industry. And with six million hectares of pastureland, Saskatchewan is the ideal place for livestock.

Mother Nature has been kind to Saskatchewan, blessing it with a unique environment. It would be a shame to knowingly spoil what Mother Nature has so generously given us. She would not be pleased.

But what to do with over two million litres of used antifreeze or the 25 million litres of used oil generated each year?

One litre of used oil can contaminate, beyond repair, one million litres of water.

The answer is - recycle them. And it’s easy for farmers, businesses and do-it-yourselfers to clear out their garages, sheds and places of businesses of these potentially hazardous materials, plus ¿lters and plastic containers in which the Àuids are sold.

Saskatchewan has a successful industry-led stewardship program for recycling used oil materials oil, ¿lters, plastic containers). Recently, used antifreeze materials (antifreeze, plastic antifreeze and diesel exhaust Àuid ('()) containers) were included in the provincial program.

All are recycled and reused. It is cost effective, saves resources and protects our quality of life and environment.

Throughout the province there are nearly 200 collection points that accept some or all of these materials including 5 purpose-built (coCentres in maMor communities accepting all materials.

To locate your nearest used oil and antifreeze materials collection point, visit www.usedoilrecyclingsk.com There is also a mobile website http://mobile.usedoilrecyclingsk.com or a toll free number 1-877-645-7275 you can call.

When you recycle used oil, filters and antifreeze you keep our water, my water safe. Used antifreeze is toxic and just one litre of used oil can contaminate one million litres of water.

And when you recycle their containers, plus DEF containers, you keep tonnes of unwanted waste out of our Back-Forty and landfills.

So I thank you, Bessie and the whole herd thanks you, as does Mother Nature.

Now you have millions of reasons for recycling your used oil and antifreeze materials.

The recycling industry thanks you as does Mother Nature.

KNIVES | MORAKNIV COMPANION

Swedish knife shows excellent performance, value OUTDOOR PURSUITS

KIM QUINTIN

T

he Morakniv Companion is a series of outdoor knife models manufactured in Sweden by

Mora.

Our Companion MG test model was 8.6 inches long with a four inch blade, weighed less than a quarter of

pound and came in either UHB-20C carbon or Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel.

The Companion series design comes from a long history of bush craft and lumberjacking in the Swedish back country, coupled with the use of modern materials.

Mora produces a variety of Companion models, including serrated blades and blunted safety tips for rescue situations.

The ergonomics of the rubber handle are comfortable and excellent, even when wet. The careful geometry of the handle and blade shape makes the tool feel like a natural extension of the owner’s thoughts. The Companion also has a tapered tang hid-

den inside the handle.

The unattractive but functional plastic sheath holds the knife securely, has a drain hole and is easy to clean. It is easy to be put off by the cheap appearance of the plastic sheath. Mora has tried to dress up the inexpensive material, but there is only so much it can do.

Like other knives from that part of the world, Mora uses a Scandi grind on the Companion series, which is a single flat grind angled out from the cutting edge. It creates an edge that is one of the easiest to maintain and resharpen, even with sharpening stones.

This style of edge tends to create blade friction when cutting through

soft, thick material.

It took awhile to get used to the feel of the Scandi grind. The edge cut cleanly and easily when working with thin material or woodcarving. The blade felt broad when cutting through meat, which is simply a result of the short edge bevel. It took a considerable number of cutting tasks to dull the edge, while re-sharpening was short and simple.

The Companion MG is an excellent choice for people who also bring a larger full tang knife, hatchet or even an axe for harder tasks when spend-

ing time outdoors. The knife is lightweight, easy to maintain in the field and can handle all light and medium duty tasks.

The Morakniv Companion is an inexpensive knife for the tasks it can tackle. One could buy and abuse many of these tools over years for the same cost of the more expensive outdoors knives. For the money, you cannot go wrong with trying one.

Wireworm samples wanted

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

Prairie farmers are asked to send samples of wireworms to researchers looking for an effective way to control this growing pest problem.

Alberta Agriculture crop specialist Neil Whatley said wireworm numbers have steadily increased in prairie soil since the federal government banned lindane in 2004.

There are more than 30 species of wireworm in Canada, each with different behaviour and life cycles Agriculture Canada researchers want to know what system or combination of systems will work best to control the pest.

“A single control measure might not work,” said Whatley, who hopes farmers will play an active role in finding a control by sending samples of wireworms from their area.

Wireworm larvae feed on plant roots and germinating seeds for three to five years before developing into the adult click beetle stage.

Seed treatments such as Cruiser Maxx and Raxil WW repel wireworms but don’t kill them, and the wireworms continue to thrive.

Wireworm research is led by Agriculture Canada researchers Bob Vernon and Win van Herk in Agassiz, where they are identifying wireworm species and developing control methods.

Wireworms shred or poke holes in the seedlings below the soil surface, which produces a patchy, thin crop.

Farmers can bait wireworms by burying a cup of a cereal crop 10 to 15 centimetres into the soil in spring.

They should dig up the bait two weeks later and search for wireworms and their tunnels.

The final step is to collect the wireworms and some of the soil and mail them in a plastic container to Agriculture and Agrifood Canada, 6947 Highway 7, Box 1000, Agassiz, B.C. V0M 1A0.

Farmers should also send a brief description of where the wireworms were found and a history of the field.

PREDATION | PROBLEM BIRDS

Mean and nasty birds hired to take on small and hungry Falcons protect crops | Company provides flock of predator birds to chase out small birds that devour berry, fruit or corn crops

BY REBECCA KUROPATWA FREELANCE WRITER

NatureWatch organizes four programs, including PlantWatch, which collects data about bloom times and growth progress over several years to determine if they are affected by climate change. | JEANNETTE GREAVES PHOTO CLIMATE CHANGE | DATA COLLECTION

Group gathers plant data to track climate change

BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Those who make their living off the land are best suited to monitor their natural surroundings, says Lacey Weeks of Nature Saskatchewan.

“Rural people are out on the land all the time. They make their living off the land, so they’re the perfect people to watch for plants. They probably already do this anyway,” said Weeks, conservation and education manager for the provincial organization, which is par t of NatureWatch.

NatureWatch is asking Canadians to get outside and contribute environmental data that will help scientists monitor the changing climate.

It’s also an opportunity for people to learn about the environment in their local area.

The collected data goes into a national database at the University of Ottawa, where it’s used to better understand the impacts of biodiversity in relation to climate change.

“We’re all going to have to adapt to our climate changing,” Weeks said.

“It gives us an idea of how things are changing.”

NatureWatch organizes four programs: PlantWatch, FrogWatch, WormWatch and IceWatch.

PlantWatch participants monitor the blooming dates of plants. They need to observe and note the first bloom, mid-bloom and leaf-out of 18 native and two non-native plants: dandelion and lilac.

Weeks said observing a single plant over several years will help researchers understand how climate change affects the blooming times of plants

in Saskatchewan.

“You get a record over time. If they continue to do this year after year, then you can start to see a trend in climate,” she said.

Taking part in FrogWatch means listening for male toads and frogs to start singing during mating season in the spring. They are vulnerable to changes in the atmosphere, land and the water and can be used as an indicator of a healthy environment.

“If you have a slough in your yard, go out in the spring and listen for frog calls. This might be a little tricky because we do have a number of different species,” she said.

“On our website is all the calls listed for Saskatchewan.”

WormWatch studies the number and types of species located at a site.

Earthworms are extremely sensitive to soil disturbance, and recording their number in a specific volume of earth reveals how the habitat is being managed.

“When you’re in your garden and you first see the worms come out, mark down that date,” she said. “On the website, there are ways on how you ID a worm in finding the species.”

IceWatch records the freezing and thawing dates of local lakes and rivers.

Analyzed data is revealing that the freeze-thaw cycles of northern water bodies are changing.

Participants can visit naturewatch. ca and create a profile to upload data as well as photographs. Help is available to identify species.

For more information, phone 306780-9481 in Regina and 800-6674668 outside of Regina, or e-mail lweekes@naturesask.ca.

Producers can have a hard time protecting high-value crops, such as berries and wine grapes from hungry birds.

But now an Ontario farm hopes to fight fire with fire by bringing in predatory birds to get rid of the nuisance ones.

Friedhelm Hoesterey, who owns and operates Golden Creek Bird Farm in Severn Bridge, Ont., said when a farmer phones, his farm studies the fields to learn what problem pests exist, what crop has to be protected and how large the protection area is.

“That means, for us, how many birds we have to take over and have to take out. And, of course, if it’s blueberries, then we know exactly who the main culprits are (robins, cedar waxwings and blackbirds).”

Most of the farms Hoesterey works with are U-pick operations that are open to the public.

“So, soon there are hundreds of

people in the field and our job is done,” said Hoesterey.

“For a ball park figure, we usually charge between $500 and $700 a day to protect 25 acres with eight to 10 birds up there.”

Each farm has its own needs. For example, wineries want to protect the grapes.

“Some guys want to protect sweet corn, having different colours of corn there,” said Hoesterey. “It’s up to the farmer and what she wants, but, basically, we come, make a proposal and then the farmer decides ‘yes’ or ‘no.’ ” Hoesterey said his operation is a small breeding farm with 30 to 40 birds every year.

“For us, it’s not the quantity, it’s the quality of the birds.”

He described his farm as being in the “scaring business,” with the prey birds trained and well fed so they don’t harm the pests. His contracts with farmers have been in effect for 10 to 15 years or longer.

“They hire us and ensure we’re coming again and again,” said

Hoesterey. “With this, they don’t have to do netting, what they do in vineries to keep starlings out. This saves the farmer money, time and manpower, so it pays off. Also, when we’re working on a contract, we provide all the permits, write all the reports and whatever else comes up with Canadian Wildlife Service, so the farmer doesn’t have to do any of this.”

He added that even though his operation is fully booked, there are other operations that can step in.

“We know falcons everywhere, so we can refer jobs….”

Golden Creek Bird Farm is also teaching falconry with the intention that those who take the course will be able to go into the pest control business for themselves.

“We’re … running a school of falconry here, in Severn Bridge, so that later, the falconers can go onto bird control services,” said Hoesterey.

The farm also trains birds for the Okanagan Valley but its main customer base is in southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the United Arab Emirates.

NEWS HORSE THERAPY | CAN PRAXIS PROGRAM

Horses used to help disabled soldiers Improve communication | Helps deal with post traumatic stress disorder

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

Steve Critchley and Christian McEachern believe in Can-Praxis, a service to help soldiers with post traumatic stress disorder. | MARY MACARTHUR PHOTO

RED DEER — Communication between couples can be tough, but it often breaks down along with the marriage when one of the partners returns home from war with post traumatic stress disorder.

A new program based in Rocky Mountain House, Alta., uses horses to restart communication between soldiers and spouses and begin the healing process, said Steve Critchley, founder of Can Praxis.

“Using horses is a very gentle way to

restart self confidence, self worth, self price and a relationship because everything you do with that horse is communication,” he said.

“If there is no communication, there is no resolution. If there is no talking, the veteran’s comfort zone gets smaller and smaller.”

Critchley said veterans often withdraw into depression and loneliness because of their inability to communicate.

Breaking the cycle of non-communication and teaching them how to have a conversation is how the healing starts, he said.

It’s here!

Critchley said 110 people have gone through the program since it began 14 months ago as a free program for veterans and their spouses.

Most of the funding comes from the national Wounded Warriors program.

The program gets its name from “Can,” which stands for Canada and its can-do attitude, and “Praxis,” which stands for taking theory to practice.

Critchley spent 28 years in the military and started breeding Canadian horses after retiring.

He also continued to work in areas of conflict mediation and effective communication and eventually joined the two.

The couples, or veterans and someone who is significant to them, spend half the time in a classroom learning about communication and confidence. The rest of the time is spent with the horses.

Critchley and psychologist Jim Marland open the discussion by asking the couple a question and then watching the horse and the couple.

“Horses provide instant feedback to the veterans and their spouses on how to approach each other,” he said.

The three-day program teaches the couple communication skills to practice at home.

Critchley said the trauma experienced in war affects people differently and requires different therapies. After working with horses, the veteran is often more comfortable dealing with therapy.

He said Can Praxis is different from other programs because it includes the spouse.

Veteran Christian McEachern of Black Diamond, Alta., and his girlfriend took the course after he left the military.

“For me, it’s been helpful in my awareness of how to talk to people. A lot of army guys don’t beat around the bush, and you get yourself in trouble,” he said.

Army training prepares soldiers for life in the military but not necessarily how to cope as a civilian, said McEachern, who spent 15 years in the army and four years in cadets.

“A lot goes on in an army guy’s head,” he said.

“I’ll see a problem and already know how to fix it. To my girlfriend, I seem really impatient. For her, it’s really good to get an understanding of why I think like that.”

This August, McEachern will be riding his horse from Wainwright, Alta., to Jasper, Alta., with stops at the milit a r y b a s e s i n Wa i n w r i g h t a n d Edmonton to raise awareness and funding for the program.

Critchley said lack of funding is the biggest obstacle to offering the program to more veterans with PTSD and their families.

Participants are flown free to Rocky Mountain House from across Canada. Airfare costs the program $3,000 to $12,000 a month. There are no charges for the program.

This summer, Critchley will began phase two of the program and bring back veterans who participated in the initial work and teach them to ride and care for their horses.

Phase three will be to take veterans on three to four day pack trips into the mountains with their horses.

HORSES | TRAINING

Trainer uses gentle touch to earn horse’s respect Body language key | Trainer uses round pen to build relationship between horse and rider

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

RED DEER — The most important message from Russ Krachun’s horse training clinics isn’t about hand position or leg aids — it’s love.

“Ever ything comes from your heart,” said Krachun, one of three trainers who competed in the trainers’ challenge at the Mane Event horse expo and show in Red Deer.

“If you want to touch an animal, bring your heart into your hands and transfer this energy and love.… In my clinics, I teach people how to respect horses.”

Krachun, who grew up in Odessa, Ukraine, a seaport on the Black Sea, created his own horse as a child out of a stick, a pillow tied in the middle and his father’s belt as a bridle. It wasn’t until his father took him to see the 1960s western movie The Magnificent Seven when he was six that he realized his calling would involve horses.

Krachun’s mother recognized his love of horses and introduced him to an uncle who taught him the ways of his Cossack ancestors. His mother’s family was killed in the Second World War and its land confiscated by the government.

Through his uncle, Krachun started to learn about horses.

“He and my parents teach me how to love animals.”

Krachun emigrated to Ontario 15 years ago, where he established a horsemanship program based on his unique history and skills.

“With your body language, you can accomplish so much,” said Krachun, who emphasized gentleness during his three one-hour training sessions at the trainers’ challenge, where each trainer was given a halter broke horse to train during the sessions.

Krachun emphasized gentleness while teaching the horse to accept the bit and the saddle. He rubbed the horse’s face and body, repeatedly tossing on a blanket and then removing it “I want her to learn how to control her emotions. My hands all the time bring love to her.”

Before putting on the saddle, Krachun wrapped a cotton rope around the horse’s girth and tightened it gently before releasing it. He repeated this several times to let the horse know that something new may be happening but that there would eventually be relief from the pressure.

A round pen is another important aid for Krachun.

He has created the 20 Steps in the Round Pen program, which he believes is key to giving the horse and rider a solid, safe start.

“The round pen is the foundation.”

The horse and rider can start to build a strong relationship of trust in a round pen, he added.

Krachun has turned his 20-step program into an e-book, the first of many e-books and videos he hopes to create for riders and trainers.

“I want to transfer to my son and everyone all my education my parents taught me on how to love people and animals.”

CLIMATE CHANGE | SASKATCHEWAN REPORT

Sask., Alberta cited as worst GHG polluters in Canada Saskatchewan’s gas emissions are three times higher than the Canadian average, says report

BY WILLIAM DEKAY SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Agriculture is responsible for 16 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in Saskatchewan, according to a new report on climate change.

“Agriculture is a smaller set of emissions, but it’s still not insignificant,” said Peter Prebble, the Saskatchewan Environmental Society’s director of environmental policy and author of the report.

“It’s one of the areas where emission reductions needs to be more gradual

because agriculture can be really affected by emissions and there’s not as many good alternatives.”

Electricity generation, the oil and gas industry and transportation are the three big sources of emissions in the province.

The 60-page report, which was released April 29, includes information gathered during two days of testimony at the Saskatchewan Citizens’ Hearings on Climate Change in November.

Saskatchewan greenhouse gas emissions are also three times higher than the Canadian average.

“There’s been a marked increase in flooding in Saskatchewan over the past decade, and that is something that is likely to continue,” said University of Saskatchewan associate

I think the transformation to a renewable energy future could actually be very exciting for rural Saskatchewan and a source of revenue generation.

PETER PREBBLE SASKATCHEWAN ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIETY

professor Marcia McKenzie, one of the four commissioners.

“Over the longer time frame, it’s projected that there will be increasing intense and prolonged droughts in Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan is also vulnerable to extreme weather events due to climate change.”

McKenzie said there’s also concern that Saskatchewan residents will face more Lyme disease because of the

effects of a warming climate.

Prebble said Aboriginal elders have been seeing an effect on medicinal herbs and plants during the last decade.

The report recommends ways to curtail prairie greenhouse gas emissions.

Some involve planting more trees to sequester more carbon and reducing intensive grazing practices in livestock pastures.

Prebble said Saskatoon has 80 percent more solar power availability than Germany, which is meeting the energy needs of 11 million people through a combination of solar, wind and bio-mass technology in a geographical area half the size of Saskatchewan.

The report concludes an orderly phase out of fossil fuel worldwide over the next several decades is necessary.

TRADE | INTER-PROVINCIAL

Trade panel sides against Quebec on vegetable oil based dairy products

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

The Saskatchewan cabinet minister responsible for trade says he is confident that a recent decision allowing better access for oilseeds in Quebec will stand.

Tim McMillan said the dispute resolution panel under the pan-Canadian Agreement on Internal Trade was clear in its ruling.

“We think that nothing has changed fundamentally since the ruling,” he told reporters.

The April 30 ruling stated that some sections of Quebec’s Food Products Act restrict the use of vegetable oil based dairy products and contravene domestic trade rules.

Quebec has said it will appeal the decision.

The appeal could take up to seven months. McMillan said the appeal process has to be completed before

TIM MCMILLAN SASK. TRADE MINISTER

full access can be gained.

“We are Canada’s largest producer of oilseeds,” he said.

“We ship our commodities around the world and having this stepping stone within Canada is the first step before we can expand broader.”

Saskatchewan challenged Quebec’s restrictions on oil-based dairy products, saying it limited access by producers and processors.

Quebec represents one-quarter of Canada’s food market.

McMillan said suppliers have worked hard to provide appropri-

ately coloured margarine. Securing the market is the next step.

Oilseed products such as dessert topping, coffee creamer and ice cream are all affected by the market restrictions.

McMillan said the panel ruling gives the food industry the option to use the products they prefer.

The panel heard arguments at a public hearing in Quebec City in January. Saskatchewan’s position was supported by Alberta, British Columbia and Manitoba.

Vegetable Oil Industry of Canada president Sean McGhee also said he expects the decision will be upheld.

“We acknowledge the leadership shown by Saskatchewan, along with the other western provinces, in pursuing open markets in Canada,” he said. “It seems like a small thing, but businesses in Canada should not be discriminated against by unfair trade rules.”

ONTARIO HORTICULTURE INDUSTRY GETS FUNDING The Vineland Research and Innovation Centre in Lincoln Ont., is receiving $26.5 million in federal and provincial funding.

Funding will support innovations in the centre’s three areas of research: genetics for more resilient crops, enhanced horticultural production systems for better pest management and consumer insights to support new products such as varieties of vegetables, apples and wine.

B.C. GRAPE, WINE SECTOR GETS FUNDING The British Columbia Wine Grape Council hopes to use $2 million in federal funding to improve Canadian wine.

The funding is expected to help the industry better compete in domestic and international markets and increase producers’ bottom lines by improving quality and yields and reducing losses from

pests and diseases.

B.C.’s wine industry has annual sales of more than $54 million with exports of almost $8 million, an increase of more than $6 million in the past six years.

Drift occurs when droplets are smaller than 200 microns. Standard sprayer nozzles drift because they produce droplets that are 50-300 micron in size with a large percentage under 200. With a droplet range of 200-550 microns, the Air Bubble Jet has 90% less drift than standard nozzles.

Run off occurs with big droplets - 600 microns and over. Depending on the manufacturer, other low drift nozzles produce droplets that range in size from 250-1000 microns. That is why run off can be a problem. With a droplet size of 200-550 microns, your chemical stays on the plant when applied with the Air Bubble Jet. New Twin Air Bubble Jet. With the twin cap, you can use 2-5 gallon nozzles rather than 1-10 gallon nozzles. The advantage is you get over twice as many droplets per square inch for superior coverage.

Air Bubble jet nozzles operate at 30-45 psi and have an overall range of 20-90 psi.They can be used to apply fungicides, insecticides and herbicides to any crop including potatoes and pulse crops.

BEES | WINTER LOSSES

Bees come through gruelling winter in good condition Varroa mite control | Alberta saw losses of about 15 percent this year compared to 24 percent last year. Beekeepers there credit mite control applications in spring and fall

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Last year’s brutal winter was a tough slog for most Canadians, but prairie bees thrived in the cold and snow.

Beekeepers in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are reporting relatively low winter losses compared to previous years.

Medhat Nasr, provincial apiculturist for Alberta, said most beekeepers lost 10 to 15 percent of their colonies over the winter.

“So far we haven’t had any catastrophic cases, in terms of big (losses),” he said.

“The (bees) came through this really cold winter in good shape, except they needed some sugar feed (in the spring)…. Beekeepers were able to get to (the bees) in time, to take care of them.”

Nasr estimated winter hive losses

in Alberta at 15 percent, which is down significantly from 24 percent losses in 2013.

The story is similar in Saskatchewan.

“Winter loss here is probably going to be under 15 percent. There’s the odd guy that has a terrible wreck,” said Calvin Parsons, a beekeeper from Meskanaw, Sask.

“Most of the beekeepers in Saskatchewan are … happy.”

Parsons said 10 percent of his hives failed to survive the winter.

Colony losses averaged 27 percent in the province.

Manitoba apiarists experienced terrible losses during the winter of 2012-13. Nearly 47 percent of colonies didn’t make it.

This spring is looking more promising. “(It’s) like night and day,” said Mark Friesen, who keeps bees near Morden, Man.

Friesen said last year’s severe losses could be traced to the hot, dry summer of 2012. Bee colonies on his farm were in rough shape going into the winter of 2012-13, resulting in substantial hive losses by the spring of 2013.

Conditions in southern Manitoba were more amenable to bees last summer. Many crops flowered later in the summer, boosting honey flow and bee colony health going into the winter, Friesen said.

Bryan Ash of Gilbert Plains, Man., said this winter was better than 201213 but it wasn’t great.

About half of his colonies overwinter in the Okanagan. Those bees fared well, but 30 to 35 percent of his colonies near Gilbert Plains did not survive. However, it wasn’t as bad as the previous winter.

“Last year I was probably closer to a 70 percent loss.”

Ash also keeps bees near Roblin,

Despite the cold winter, most beekeepers across the Prairies report low winter losses this year. Apriarist Bill Bygarski of Brandon recently unpacked 125 new queens, which arrived from Chile April 30. They will replace old queens or be used in colonies that do not have a queen. | SANDY BLACK PHOTOS

Man., and those colonies struggled.

His Roblin bees foraged on wild flowers last fall, compromising the colonies’ health.

“It’s typically a darker honey, which is a stronger honey to winter on and it gives them dysentery,” he said.

“My Roblin area is probably running a good 70 percent loss.”

Nasr said winter losses in Alberta have declined because beekeepers have adopted new practices to control the varroa mite, a parasite that infects bee colonies and spreads disease.

Half of the province’s beekeepers previously controlled mites in the spring and the other half applied miticide to hives in the fall. Most of them now use miticide in the spring.

“In Alberta, here we are putting a lot of emphasis on applying the Apivar (miticide) in the spring,” Nasr said.

“By killing the mites in early spring, we are finding it does help to reduce the virus transmission loads…. You are actually protecting your bees through the year from virus infection and transmission to the winter bees.”

PED | PREVENTION

France to ban pigs from Canada, Mexico, Japan, U.S. over PED fears PARIS (Reuters) — France will ban imports of live pigs, pig byproducts and pig sperm from the United States, Canada, Mexico and Japan to combat porcine epidemic diarrhea.

The virus has killed millions of piglets in North America and Asia.

The ban aims to protect France from PED, which has killed seven million young pigs since first being identified in the U.S. almost a year ago.

The disease has reduced hog sup-

plies in the U.S. and sent prices to record highs.

“This disease worries us because the economic consequences would be dramatic if it hit our farms, in Europe and notably in France,” said Jean-Luc Angot, deputy director general and chief veterinary officer at the French farm ministry.

France is not a significant importer of live pigs and sperm but does import some feed containing pig byproducts, Angot said.

Animal feed has been suspected as

a transmission factor of the disease in the U.S. Blood products such as pig plasma are commonly fed to piglets after they have been weaned, which spreads the disease, said Bernard Vallat, head of the World Organization for Animal Health.

France’s ban did not include pork meat and other products for human consumption because the disease is not dangerous to humans, Angot said.

France is the first EU country to

restrict imports of U.S. pigs. China, the world’s No. 1 pork consumer, and Japan have already imposed “temporary restrictions” on U.S. pig imports until their ministries reach deals with the U.S. on testing animals, a trade group said.

Angot said he had presented the proposal to the European Commission at a meeting last month with experts from other EU member states.

He said major pork producers such as Germany, the Netherlands and

Denmark were interested, but the EU executive did not accept the idea to ban imports.

“It is a suspension while waiting for a European decision,” he said, adding he was still confident an EU-wide move could be adopted because of the risks if the virus were to enter the bloc.

“When you see the numbers, there is a reason to be worried. There are few diseases that have such a high mortality rate at such a large scale,” Angot said.

PIECING THE PUZZLE

JAPAN TRADE | VEGETABLE OIL

Canola sector hopeful Japan will eliminate vegetable oil tariffs Australia signs deal | Canada hopes to negotiate similar deal to end 10 percent tariff

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

There are encouraging signs that a major Canadian canola customer could soon eliminate a longstanding trade irritant.

On April 7, Japan and Australia concluded a free trade agreement that includes a clause to phase out a punitive tariff on vegetable oil over the next 10 years.

Brian Innes, market access manager with the Canola Council of Canada, said it is a “significant development” that gives him hope a similar clause will be included in trade pacts Canada is negotiating with Japan.

“We see it as a positive sign that the vegetable oil market in Japan will eliminate market access barriers,” he said.

Japan has a 10 percent tariff on vegetable oil, which typically amounts to $120 to $140 per tonne of imported product.

“It has been a major market access irritant for the Canadian canola industry for some time,” said Innes.

“It essentially prohibits us from exporting any canola oil to Japan.”

Japan bought 9,800 tonnes of Canadian canola oil last year compared to 2.23 million tonnes of canola seed.

Innes said the council views the ongoing trade negotiations as a way to eliminate the tariff and boost sales of canola oil to a market where it is already the top selling vegetable oil by a wide margin.

Canada and Japan are in the midst of negotiating a bilateral free trade agreement. The two parties are also part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade negotiations.

Innes hopes the vegetable oil tariff will be eliminated in those agreements because there appears to be a new willingness in Japan to reform its heavily protected agricultural sector.

“The prime minister has a mandate to modernize the Japanese economy, and eliminating tariffs on sensitive products that have been protected is part of that,” he said.

Soybean and canola oil face higher tariffs than palm oil, which is why imports of palm oil have grown sig-

nificantly over the past 20 years.

Canola oil could displace some palm oil if the tariffs were eliminated.

Innes said Japan could start importing more protein from Australia and other countries as it signs more free trade agreements. It means it may be more beneficial to import canola oil instead of bringing in seed because there wouldn’t be as big a market for meal to supply the domestic livestock industry.

Creating new markets for canola oil is important, given all the new crush capacity in Western Canada. Processors are expected to crush 7.6 million tonnes of seed in 2014-15.

Removal of the oil tariff for Australia doesn’t mean the same clause will be included in any agreement signed with Canada.

“It’s not a guarantee that this happens, by any means. All negotiations are negotiations,” said Innes.

He hopes those negotiations wrap up soon because Australia will have a distinct advantage once its free trade agreement with Japan is implemented.

PESTICIDES | MANAGEMENT

Growers reminded to use seed flow lubricant when using neonics

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency has released an update on its neonicotinoid seed treatment policies.

The PMRA reminded growers they must use seed flow lubricant when planting corn and soybeans this year as a way to reduce the risk that neonicotinoid-contaminated dust will kill bees this spring.

Growers must adhere to safer seed planting practices, and the PMRA

has instituted new pesticide and seed labels with enhanced warnings.

The PMRA also said it received a “very high number” of public comments on its neonicotinoid policies as Canadians worry about “the environment and the status of pollinators in Canada.”

An over whelming majority of respondents said the PMRA’s actions to protect bees were insufficient.

Eighty-nine percent want the regulator to take further action, such as banning neonicotinoids.

Sean Upton, senior media relations

officer with Health Canada, said the 89 percent figure is misleading.

The percentage of respondents hostile to neonics may have been skewed by environmental organizations such as the Sierra Club, which encouraged its followers to submit electronic form letters to the PMRA. Crop Life Canada has said a neonics ban would be reckless because it wouldn’t solve bee health issues and would remove an important pest management tool for farmers.

“International researchers widely agree that bee health is impacted by a

combination of factors, the primary one being the varroa mite,” former president Lorne Hepworth said last fall.

Upton said PMRA scientists are participating in the public debate over neonicotinoid seed treatments.

They say neonics can be dangerous for bees but that the PMRA is taking action to minimize the exposure from insecticide contaminated dust at planting time.

Mary Mitchell, director general of the environmental assessment directorate at the PMRA, told CBC radio

that other routes of exposure, such as neonic polluted water, are unlikely.

“The farmers had expressed concern that they thought levels (of neonics) in the water, in their bee yards, was hurting the bees. But over 30 water samples we analyzed, most of them were below the limit where you quantify the level of pesticide. Only a couple had pesticides… to the degree where you could quantify.”

Mitchell added bees are “in trouble” for a long list of reasons, including habitat loss and increased disease risk.

Researchers will push yields to show winter wheat can be high performing crop LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Thirteen “super sites” across the prairie provinces will be the focus this year of efforts to show the potential of winter wheat.

Bayer CropScience, Richardson International and Ducks Unlimited will work through the Western Winter Wheat Initiative, which was announced in January, to try getting the most out of this year’s sites.

Ducks Unlimited agronomist Janine Paly said the collaborators will push yields on six winter wheat sites in Saskatchewan, four in Manitoba and three in Alberta.

That push will involve intensive management including supplemental fertilizer and quick action against insect, disease and fungus problems that arise, depending on location, variety and climate.

“We will be pushing yields to demonstrate that winter wheat is a high performance crop,” said Paly.

Large fields, rather than test plots, have been planted for the initiative.

It is too early in the season to fully assess how the crops came through the winter, said Paly. Assessment is best done from May 15-25, depending on weather conditions in the region.

Good snow cover across much of the Prairies this winter suggests good insulation and low winter kill, but Paly said agronomists will start their scouting next week so more will be known about crop condition by midmonth.

One hundred millimetres of snow is considered the minimum amount during the winter to shield the crop from low temperatures.

The initiative’s overall mission is to “support, educate and equip farmers, industry and end users in the production of winter wheat as a viable cropping choice for western Canadian growers.”

TECHNOLOGY | MOBILE APP

Mobile app allows ag info sharing SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Farmers curious about what their neighbour paid for fertilizer might find the answer in their phone.

AgPriceBook joins a growing list of mobile applications targeting producers. Some allow growers to record and share farm management data or access market and weather information.

This one, developed by Farmers of North America Strategic Agriculture Institute with funding from Agriculture Canada, allows producers to anonymously share prices for fertilizers and other inputs that they’ve seen in their region.

“We’ve developed this tool with the expectation that … it’ll provide transparent pricing information to farmers,” said Bob Friesen of FNASTAG . “Of course, the success of this is contingent on farmers engaging.”

Users can input information on the free application, as well as view prices posted within a 100 kilometre radius of a point they select. The application does not identify retailers.

“We’re expecting it will have a price levelling effect, so that if a farmers in Humboldt, Sask., finds out the product that he’s buying is $800 a tonne but he sees that a farmer near Regina is getting it for $700 a tonne, that he will be able to use that information,” said Friesen.

The application was launched last month, and has already been downloaded several hundred times.

He compared the application to a farm input monitoring survey that the University of Guelph conducted in Ontario, which surveys prices paid at farm supply centres in that province and some U.S. states.

“For some time, we had thought that we needed something like this, especially in Western Canada.”

Friesen said the non-profit organization could potentially use the data collected from the app in reports.

“It would give us an opportunity to use the price information that farmers have entered and just simply aggregate it in a price survey report.”

WEED MANAGEMENT | SPURGE CONTROL

Experts take on leafy spurge Chemical controls | Treatments applied at different rates and times to examine long-term results

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

• A research project near Moose Jaw, Sask., is entering the third and final year of study into how best to control leafy spurge.

The work includes trials of an asyet unregistered chemical from DuPont, Rejuvra XL, which is showing promise and is expected to be registered for next year.

Moose Jaw River Watershed Stewards and the Moose Jaw Weed Management Area are leading the project 30 kilometres west of the city, where leafy spurge is a dominant plant.

The weed management area, which was formed in 2011, includes four rural municipalities: Caron, Baildon, Moose Jaw and Wheatland.

Bridget Andrews of the watershed said leafy spurge has been a problem in the Caronport and Mortlach areas for more than 50 years.

However, patches have now appeared between Regina and Pense and even east of Regina, she said during a recent webinar.

“It is on the move.”

Chemical control in the region is limited by the presence of Thunder Creek and the Moose Jaw River.

A rail line also runs through the watershed, and although the railway does spray, Andrews said there is concern about the strip of land between the line and a landowner’s right-of-way.

The research project is located on a five-acre plot that is covered in leafy spurge and that has never received chemical control.

Fifteen treatments were used, including two control sites.

Treatments used in the first year included: • three applications of Tordon 22K — 3.6 litres per acre in a June application, 1.89 litres per acre

• •

• • • •

each in June and September and 1.89 litres per acre in September three applications of Grazon — 2.8 litres per acre in June, 2.8 litres per acre in September and 2.8 litres per acre in fall with 2,4-D Amine at 370 grams per litre the following spring one application of Dicamba at 1.89 litres per acre in June one application of Dicamba plus 2,4-D at 1.89 litres per acre and 370 grams per acre, respectively, in September one wick treatment of glyphosate in early July two treatments of 2,4-D Amine at 370 grams per acre — one in June and one in June and September one treatment of Rejuvra XL one mowing completed in June

Andrews said the treatments using Tordon, Grazon and Rejuvra were not repeated in the second year to see what long-term control they provided.

BASF requested the addition of two treatments of Overdrive. One used 115 grams per acre of Overdrive with the adjuvent Merge and Tordon 22K at one litre per acre and the other used 230 grams per acre of Overdrive with Merge and Tordon 22K at .5 litre per acre.

Complete results of the second year of the trials are to be released soon, but Andrews said, “I can tell you, it killed things.”

She said the first year showed good results from the treatments that weren’t repeated a second time.

She also said the Tordon 22K and Grazon results were exceptional.

The Tordon application saw less than one percent regrowth in every treatment, while there was four percent regrowth with the Grazon treatment after the first year.

The Rejuvra treatment was also impressive, Andrews said.

Control trials using black dog beetles showed up to 60 percent reduction in spurge cover. | FILE PHOTO “We didn’t see any regrowth on it and it looked really good last fall.”

Other treatments didn’t work as well.

The Dicamba spring application, the 2,4-D spring application and the 2,4-D spring and fall applications were disappointing. There was almost 100 percent regrowth.

“We did see it suppress the plant so it didn’t necessarily go to seed,” she said. “However, they’re all back, and of course it’s something that you have to do every year.”

The Dicamba spring application with the fall 2,4-D application saw 23 percent regrowth.

“We were surprised. We expected to see more spurge regrowth. It actually worked quite well.”

Glyphosate wick application did not control the spurge at all, while mowing only suppressed flowering.

Andrews said RMs that mow must do so before leafy spurge goes to seed or else they are just spreading the problem.

Preliminary results of last year’s Overdrive treatments showed good control after spraying, but Andrews said the spring plant counts will determine how well it really worked.

John Hauer, a regional forage specialist in Kindersley, Sask., said leafy spurge seeds remain viable in the soil for up to eight years but usually germinate within two.

“Each flowering stem can produce 140 seeds per year,” he said.

As well, the seeds can shoot four metres from the parent plant.

The acreage infested with leafy spurge has doubled every 10 years since the early 1900s, he said.

Hauer said it’s important to gain control because leafy spurge reduces carr ying capacity and costs ranchers money.

For example, more than one million acres is infested in North Dakota, which has reduced grazing by 77,000 cows and resulted in lost income to producers of $9 million.

Biological control is an option.

Hauer said 17 beetle species have been released in Saskatchewan.

Eleven of those have established populations and two have survived the best.

The black dog spurge beetle prefers hot dry sites, sandy soil and drier knolls, while the brown dot spurge beetle likes moister sites, loamy soil and lower valley areas.

Beetles released in the early 1990s reduced leafy spurge cover to 10 percent from 50 to 70 percent, Hauer said.

Sheep and goat grazing can also reduce the stands.

Andrews said the weed management area has released beetles but hasn’t yet had success in establishing populations.

Dandelion control starts with a fall herbicide treatment, followed by an application in the spring. |

WEED OF THE WEEK: DANDELIONS

BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Dandelions are a serious pest for modern prairie farmers, but European pioneers considered them to be valuable plants.

They were brought to the new world as a medicinal herb and were considered a resilient, perennial forage plant.

It is known mostly as a problem weed on urban lawns, but it can also cause big headaches for farmers. For example, alfalfa producers cite it as a main reason for rotating that crop.

Tillage used to keep dandelions in ditches and pastures, but reduced tillage and continuous cropping have allowed dandelions to flourish.

Applying phenoxy herbicides or a half rate of glyphosate in the spring merely reduce dandelion’s competition.

Light tillage and discing usually fail to stop its growth, but its reliance on a

single taproot makes it vulnerable to deeper cultivation. Rod weeders are especially good at destroying the weed, but they are becoming hard to find.

Research has found that the weed has a limited effect on the overall yield for pasture grazing because it provides highly palatable feed for cattle and sheep. The large tap root allows it to rely on stored resources even in situations of over-grazing. It will often be the last plant standing in abused pastures.

Alfalfa seed crops are another matter, and the weed remains a serious issue for growers.

Fall seeded cereals can suffer significant damage if not controlled with a full rate of glyphosate or a combination of glyphosate and Group 2 or Group 4 herbicides before seeding.

Chemical control of dandelions began in the 1940s with the introduction of phenoxy herbicides.

The use of 2,4-D and other products produces limited results, but it can hamper the ability of older plants to produce seed and eliminate new seedlings when applied to grass pastures and hayland in the fall and combined with summer grazing.

A little epinastic bending of a main stem might signal pesticide success in many plants, but with dandelions it often only shows that there will be a delay in the pest’s seed production.

The best times to treat dandelions is early in the spring and later in the fall.

Fall applications are the most successful.

Herbicides effectively control the plants only when they are small or actively growing.

New seedlings are generated by mid-season flowerings of mature plants that have escaped spring burn-off destruction, a pre-harvest glyphosate regime or a pulse crop desiccation. The plants are in a semidormant state when in the dry,

shaded conditions of a mature prairie crop, so herbicides have a limited effect at that time.

Agriculture Canada and University of Saskatchewan research has found that dandelions are most vulnerable when they are preparing for winter after using stored energy to get through the shady July and August season.

The effect of winter stress combined with illness created by herbicides can be enough to kill them.

A full rate of glyphosate before heavy frost damage usually controls the weed and kills any post-harvest germinated pests. Some tank-mixed broadleaf products can enhance control, according to research by the Saskatchewan Soil Conservation Association.

Increasing the effectiveness of spring applied glyphosate with products such as DuPont’s Express, Dow’s Prepass and BASF’s Heat has been shown to be effective, but the strategy works best when the surviving plants have already suffered from a fall application.

Spring applications suppress growth and reduce yield damage.

They also reduce the number of seeds produced by plants that survive the treatments.

Applications of 2,4-D in pastures and alfalfa are effective in the fall before the first frost or in the spring when the alfalfa is still short.

Uniformity goal of N-Shooter injection system Streaming liquid from tank to shank | Pump keeps distribution of anhydrous ammonia uniform, resulting in uniform crop

BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

BRANDON — Where conventional anhydrous ammonia systems might have 25 percent coefficient of varia-

ti on l e ft to r ig ht o n s i d e h i lls, N-Shooter claims a one percent CV across the toolbar in all situations.

“When you have a coefficient of variation of one percent from shank to shank, you know that you’ll have

uniform distribution of nitrogen right across your field,” says Chris Wilson of Tru-Kare Tank and Meter Service of Lacombe, Alta., which designed and built the nitrogen injection system.

Ken Vreeling switched to the N-Shooter system because he wanted to get away from frosty lines and frozen mud balls on his openers. He now has an N-Shooter on each of his three Seed Hawk drills. | KEN VREELING PHOTO

SPRING SAVINGS ON FALL STORAGE

“Uniform nitrogen placement gives you a more uniform crop and the potential for better yields, better grade, more uniform maturity and earlier harvest.”

Wilson said a grower will not get those benefits with haphazard nitrogen distribution because anhydrous ammonia will always flow down to the lower end of the toolbar unless there’s a pump to increase the pressure.

“With the N-Shooter, NH3 flows out of the tank as a streaming liquid. It’s a streaming liquid from tank to shank.

It remains under pressure at all times, so it never has the chance to expand or vaporize,” he said.

“That includes the shank. Our orifices prevent vaporization, so the nitrogen streams into the soil in liquid form. Then if your packers close the soil up fast and tight, you’ll have a very minimal loss. And there’s no freezing at the injection point. We don’t need that extreme high pressure you see in the Exactrix system. They run up in the range of 275 to 300 (pounds per sq. inch). We only run 20 to 30 p.s.i. above tank pressure. That was one of the key reasons for developing the N-Shooter.”

Wilson said the N-Shooter hydraulics are the fastest he knows in the industry, giving the system a fast response for variable rate. The response is quick enough that changes are made before the drill reaches the borders of the prescription map zone. As a result, the as-applied map matches the prescription map on the monitor.

The Corken ZHX2000 sliding vane pump runs at about 300 r.p.m. and has a life expectancy of more than two million gallons.

Hydraulics run the pump, but sectional control is electric. The valves go from full closed to full open in .8

seconds.

The pump is generally located on the nurse wagon, making it the furthest piece of equipment from the tractor cab. As a result, the operator is often moving up and down out of the cab to check the pump.

“The operator gets more seat time with the N-Shooter because he never needs to get out to check the pump.

We have a pump r.p.m. monitor in the cab. That tells him what the pump is doing at all times. Variations in r.p.m. tell the operator if there are supply issues or problems in the lines.”

The system uses inductance flow meters with an amplifier. The .75 inch meter reads accurately between 1.9 and 26 gallons per minute. It can make the shift from 1.9 g.p.m. to 25 g.p.m. in three seconds.

The one inch meter reads accurately between four and 46 g.p.m. For low rate applications, the system can function accurately at 10 to 20 pounds per acre and then quickly go back to high rates.

Tru-Kare says the largest system it has supplied is on a 90-foot Seed Master with the highest application rate reaching 190 pounds per acre.

The system works with all controllers, including older units built before Can-bus. Wilson said the company usually uses Raven harnessing because it’s the most compatible with the controllers with which it works.

Although the system is easily adaptable to all openers, he said the company has had the best success with Dutch and Atom Jet. Price is in the $30,000 range, depending on the drill.

Wilson says return on investment is two to three years.

FERTILIZER | APPLICATION

Pressure system relieves worry Growers explain reasons for switching to N-Shooter

BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

BRANDON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The ability to pump more nitrogen into the soil in a single pass is why many producers are switching to anhydrous ammonia. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For sure, the biggest reason we went to NH3 and the N-Shooter was productivity,â&#x20AC;? said Bryan Thiessen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;NH3 lets me just about double the product I put down. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 82 percent versus 46 percent. That says it all.â&#x20AC;?

With three N-Shooters on his 15,000 acre farm near Outlook, Sask., Thiessen is no stranger to the system. Both of his Morris drills are equipped.

He recently sold his Flexi-Coil, which had an N-Shooter, but is currently installing a new system on his new Seed Hawk. He does variable rate with all three drills. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It seems fairly responsive, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite dependent on how you calibrate you system, things like the proper on-off times,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As for accuracy, you know, I honestly donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting better accuracy. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that fine of an art with these things, but I can say weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had no problem with any of the N-Shooters. Where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had trouble was the Topcon and their monitors, but I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been solved with their latest round of X-30 monitors. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve changed everything over to X-30, and it looks like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to work.â&#x20AC;?

Eliminating frosty lines is another reason producers give when explaining why they spent $30,000 on an N-Shooter system. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the case with Ken Vreeling, who farms 9,000 acres near Hawk Hills, Alta.

He has now grown three crops with his first N-Shooter and two crops with his second N-Shooter. Before buying the first unit, Vreeling had always used a single-line free-flowing system with a Continental MVD. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to get away from frosty lines and that big mud buildup on the shank,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That caused us a lot of grief in wet soils.â&#x20AC;?

The ball of frozen mud was almost like a football on every opener, he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We needed a pressure system so we could put down anhydrous with the seed instead of in a separate operation. We also wanted sectional control.â&#x20AC;?

Vreeling installed the systems on

his Seed Hawks, with anhydrous going down the middle opener, which is intended for fertilizer. This puts the anhydrous ammonia about an inch below the level of the seed.

He has paired row openers, so the seeds are one inch off to each side of the anhydrous ammonia band. He has experienced no seedling damage.

Vreeling doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do variable rate prescription maps, but he does make manual adjustments on the go in the field. One of the biggest adjustments is cutting back on nitrogen in peaty areas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With manual control, the response is fairly quick, but there is some lag because of the distance. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re controlling the flow back at the pump, so the response time depends on how much product you have in the line,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The response is pretty fast on the little lines running down from the splitter. The change travels through there quickly. But you need some lead time for sure to make changes at the pump.â&#x20AC;?

Vreeling said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s well aware of the anhydrous ammonia safety concern that many farmers naturally have, but he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let it bother him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was an ag retailer with anhydrous for 20 years, an owner-operator. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m comfortable with anhydrous, but you have to respect it.â&#x20AC;?

Fa r m e r s w h o u s e a n hy d ro u s ammonia are unanimously cautious about safety. Terry Anderson of Gibbons, Alta., is no different. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The little lines arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a concern, but I keep an eye on those three quarter inch red lines between the manifolds. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had one of those devils blow off,â&#x20AC;? Anderson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first time it happens, it catches your attention pretty quickly. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concerning. The second time, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not as surprised. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happened to me twice. Fortunately, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always been a definite wind direction. You just reorient yourself and turn the tractor into the wind so you can get to the main valve. The good thing is that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big white cloud when it pops. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highly visible because thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of anhydrous coming out.â&#x20AC;?

Anderson will be starting his fourth crop with the N-Shooter this month.

Before this system, he always used a cold flow system on a cultivator frame.

However, he bought an air drill

Wolf management plan ‘realistic’ Differing views | Some see wolves as a heritage species but producers say they threaten livelihoods

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

A new wolf management plan in British Columbia hopes to strike the right balance between conservation and control.

The plan, which was released in April, tries to create a “realistic and pragmatic” program that balances the need for conservation in some areas and a recognition that wolves can cause serious problems for livestock producers and threatened wildlife species, said Tom Ethier, assistant deputy minister for the provincial forest, lands and natural resource operations ministry.

“Wolves can be very problematic

for ranchers and wildlife populations,” said Ethier.

The new plan creates two zones: • Areas where livestock are threatened by wolves will have lengthy and open hunting seasons with no bag limits.

• In the rest of the province, the government will implement a more sustainable, specified hunt and trapping season with a bag limit.

Wolves are elusive and difficult to count, but officials believe the provi n c e ha s a s t a b l e p o p u l at i o n between 5,300 and 11,600.

Wolf predations on livestock happen mostly in the province’s Caribou and Peace regions.

Kevin Boon, general manager of the British Columbia Cattlemen’s Association, said the plan is a positive step in managing wolves and livestock.

“They’ve done a lot of consultation, and it’s a contentious and emotional issue,” said Boon.

“Wolves have been elevated to be the crown jewel of wildlife.”

Landowners can hunt or trap the wolves on their property if they are harassing livestock.

Boon said the greatest conflict arises when cattle are turned out onto summer range where they may not be seen every day.

He said livestock producers want to be able to co-exist with wolves.

The report stressed that government officials need to work with livestock producers to help them reduce the chances of conflict by ensuring dead stock are buried and not an enticement to wolves.

Wolves used to be the most widely distributed mammal but have become extinct in many parts of the world. They have the ability to adjust their diet depending on local conditions.

Ethier said there was no tipping point that pushed the government to update its management plan.

In-stead, a combination of new science about wolves and a number of issues across the province led to the review.

CALGARY — Conventional animal breeding allows selection for certain traits in livestock, but full application of genomics technology can take the process further.

Breeders could select for certain traits with greater accuracy using their knowledge of the cattle genome.

At its fullest extent, genomics would be a tool to genetically modify animals to meet animal production or economic goals.

The social and legal implications of that activity were the focus of one session at Genome Alberta’s April 23 conference.

Ed Pajor, professor of animal welfare at the University of Calgary, said animal breeding concepts including genomics have been studied for more than 20 years, which would suggest general acceptance of the technology.

“But there really isn’t,” he said.

“There’s all kinds of controversy about this issue. We’ve had all this investment, people are developing these types of animals for potential consumption, but we don’t have, necessarily, the amount of public support that’s required to move forward, or to move forward quickly and easily and efficiently and economically.”

Literature suggests people are more willing to accept GM animals if they are used for non-food purposes, such as pharmaceuticals, organs or models for human disease cures.

He said reactions are much different when people consider GM animals as a food source.

“We really have to be prepared, as we move forward with GMO animals as food, to understand where the arguments are coming from, to understand, if you will, the social sciences around public acceptance of this technology.”

In food animals, genetic modification might be undertaken to improve CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

about genomic selection is that it offers a selection criteria, or a way to select for animals, for traits, that we can’t do very well at the moment.”

However, researchers need a large population of animals to measure for specific traits and develop tests to predict the same trait in other animals.

Van Eenennaam said smaller breeds are less able to provide enough animals and afford that type of research. As well, accuracy of the predictions drops when dealing with crossbreds.

Such genomics work also favours an integrated supply chain.

In the pork and chicken industries, a small number of companies disseminate genetics to a large number of animals.

These companies can afford the research because they will regain the costs.

In the cattle industry, however, there is little incentive for cow-calf producers to use genomic technology because they are unlikely to realize additional profits. Those profits would most likely be earned at the feeder, slaughter and retail links in the supply chain. “(There is) no transfer of value proposition from the feedlot and the processor back to the person making the selection decisions,” said Van Eenennaam.

Potential remedies might include price incentives or subsidized breeding arrangements.

Henry An, an agricultural economist at the University of Alberta, said country-of-origin labelling legislation in the United States has increased vertical integration within the cattle industry.

The economics of “the protest industry” will also affect genomics’

future, Van Eenennaam said.

She said protest groups can make money by protesting specific technologies. They may be funded behind the scenes by competitors of those proposing the technology, she added.

As an example, Van Eenennaam suggested that those protesting commercialization of the genetically modified Aqua Advantage salmon, a fast-growing fish that has yet to gain government approval, were funded by other salmon producers who fear loss of market share.

Other economic considerations surrounding genomics include potential trade implications, analysis that includes the costs associated with forgoing the technology and letting other countries pursue its benefits, and the question of who pays for development of selection for traits that fail at the market level.

For example, Van Eenennaam said California enacted legislation to ensure eggs from cage-free chickens, but market demand for those eggs has been poor. A similar scenario could play out if major investment went into genomic selection for a particular trait and then there was no demand for it.

An noted the importance of market studies before adopting technology.

A 98 percent adoption rate by dairy farmers was predicted before the milk production hormone bovine somatatropin was introduced in the U.S. However, consumers rejected its use and adoption was 21 percent among dairy producers, later dropping to 15 percent.

An said Canadian producers must consider whether genomic technology would still be profitable if meat produced with those methods had to be segregated from meat shipped to the European Union.

filter,” said Pajor.

Pets are the closest relationship many people have with animals so they extend those attitudes toward livestock.

“Public awareness levels about transgenic animals are low,” said Pajor.

“When we start developing animals for food use that don’t fit into

that traditional model around animal husbandry, potentially, then we’re going to have a real challenge in terms of society and having them understand where this technology is taking animal agriculture.”

Ubaka Ogbogu, a University of Alberta assistant professor who studies health law and bioethics, said genomics is a two-edged sword

that might do some good for society but is also likely to raise fears.

“We very often respond to technologies without a very good understanding of what they are actually about,” he said.

He said it will be important for society to understand from the start what is being done before genomics progresses further.

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

GENOMICS: • As applied to livestock, genomics in general terms involves the identification of specific biomarkers in animals so they can be bred for traits that are deemed desirable.

• Researchers can measure a large group of animals for a specific trait and then develop a genetic test to predict the same trait in other animals.

• The approach is essentially the same as traditional breeding, except results can be obtained faster and at less cost.

• In cattle, for example, desirable traits that could be selected through genomics include faster growth rates, meat quality, milk quantity and disease resistance.

CALGARY — Economics must be considered when applying genomics to livestock production, but public support for the technology is vital.

Alison Van Eenennaam, an extension specialist in animal genomics and biotechnology at the University of California Davis, told an April 23 meeting of Genome Alberta that the public has a poor understanding of genomics, genetic engineering and conventional breeding techniques.

However, she said genomics hold promise for improving animal productivity, conserving resources and increasing food availability and quality for consumers.

“If you look at the major beneficiary of animal genetic improvement over the years, the major beneficiary has been the public,” said Van Eenennaam.

Applied genomics could bring additional benefits, she added.

“The reason that we’re so jazzed

Genetic modification: • As applied to livestock, genetic modification is a targeted method of introducing desirable traits into animals using recombinant DNA technology.

• An organism’s complete set of DNA is called its genome.

Genetic modification allows genes to be transferred from one animal species to another.

It requires direct manipulation of an organism’s genes.

• Examples of GM food animals include the EnviroPig and the AquaAdvantage salmon, neither of which is commercially available or in the food chain.

If you look at the major beneficiary of animal genetic improvement over the years, the major beneficiary has been the public.

Consumer surveys must explain issues, implications

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

CALGARY — Is it time to engage the public in an important discussion and decision? The STP aren’t adequate for real input.

STP stands for the Same Ten People, said Dr. Michael Burgess of the University of British Columbia. They are the token “public” who show up at town hall meetings called to explain or get support for a potentially contentious issue.

Such might be the case when it comes time to discuss genomics and their use in livestock selection, breeding and modification, but it’s going to require more than STP to determine what people think about it.

Burgess spoke on the social and legal implications of genomics during an April 23 Genome Alberta meeting of geneticists, researchers, veterinarians and others with a direct interest in livestock production.

He said a flawed approach has been taken to public consultation on ethical issues. The reason is complex, yet simple.

“We’re not rational beings,” he said.

“I challenge you to defend on rational grounds your last car purchase, house purchase or marital choice. The notion that scientific literacy is the thing that we need the public to have because if they understand, they’ll trust us is erroneous. It doesn’t work.”

The professor in biomedical ethics has helped survey the public on medical issues in different countries.

He is seeking ways to engage the public in a deliberate and well-considered discussion of issues so that government can use their views to make decisions on ethical and social issues.

In turn, the public might have more trust in the outcomes.

“Typically, people don’t want to spend time on things if there isn’t a decision to be made,” Burgess said in an interview after his presentation.

“So you can say we need to raise scientific literacy or people’s awareness of where their food comes from, but it doesn’t matter where you are on the political range on that, most people aren’t hearing you.”

WILDLIFE | LIVELIHOODS

Wildlife and agriculture can live in harmony — to a point ANIMAL HEALTH

ROY LEWIS, DVM

M

any articles have been written about the escalating conflict between wildlife and agriculture in certain parts of Canada.

Governments struggle over what to do. The most recent survey on wildlife damage by Alberta Beef Produc-

ers and the Miistakis Institute should provide meaningful information.

The survey was comprehensive and covered predators such as coyotes and cougars and damage to grain, primarily from waterfowl and ungulates such as elk and deer.

I hope it provides direction to authorities as to where and when to implement programs because they are badly needed in some areas.

Most farmers like wildlife and enjoy seeing the odd moose, elk or bear — although maybe not a grizzly — on their farms.

Many of my beef clients were serious hunters, but with that came a respect for wildlife. They accepted a minor amount of damage because

their farms were located in wildlife habitat.

Any of these interactions are good as long as they are in moderation, and I stress moderation.

Wildlife damage affects a producer’s livelihood when we start talking about large herds of elk eating and destroying tonnes of grass or bales and wolves and cougars picking off healthy calves.

At that point, we need solutions.

Wildlife, especially ungulates, are flourishing because of the amount of land that has been cleared to grow forages. Environmentally conscious producers tend to look after riparian areas, which attract more wildlife.

Deer and elk thrive, and their preda-

tors follow close behind.

Feed supplies have increased because of good agricultural production, especially forages.

Fencing feed yards and scaring off wildlife can help, but many of these solutions are temporary.

Reproductive rates go up when wildlife are healthy, and the issue comes down to population control, whether it is too many elk coming out of the Canadian Armed Forces’ Suffield training range in Alberta or overgrazing in national parks.

Harvesting is the answer to many of the problems, whether that means extra hunting and compensating producers for use of their land or conducting mass roundups.

In some areas, populations should be managed by trained biologists who have the power to make the right call. In the interim, compensation losses for lost standing forage hay or grain will help, but the losses will continue year after year if populations are high.

As well, moving a herd of elk or deer from one area just drives them onto neighbouring land. Predators often follow large ungulate herds, compounding the problem.

Feed loss, fence damage and predation are some of the many losses that producers experience.

One article I read taught me that there can be ‘’good” and “bad” coyotes. Some coyotes stick to small animals such as gophers and mice and don’t bother cattle. Coyotes are territorial, which means producers want to keep a family of good coyotes on their farms.

Some provinces compensate for coyote losses, but others don’t, such as Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Agriculture loss from wildlife varies. For example, the discussion in Ontario is more about raccoons and rats. As a result, each province should develop individual compensation programs.

The wildlife interactions I frequently hear about are attacks on cattle. In these cases, we need to verify the cause of death.

In the past, compensation was available for deaths but not for treatment of injured livestock.

Specific things need to be looked at when developing future compensation packages. It serves no one if vigilante warfare takes place because producers are frustrated and feel they have nowhere to turn.

Many urban residents say they want all wildlife preserved, but the analogy of a pet dog or cat being killed by a cougar or a garden destroyed by deer aptly describes how farmers sometimes feel.

Urban residents must also remember that this is farmers’ livelihoods, which can be severely diminished in some cases.

Compensation programs must be easy to administer and payment needs to be timely.

Governments need to develop sustainable programs that provide adequate compensation and population reduction when warranted but still allow people to see wildlife in their natural habitat.

Catching or relocating a problem bear is much different than catching and relocating a large herd of elk.

Relocating large groups may just move the problem somewhere else and throw yet another ecosystem off balance. Perhaps harvesting for the food bank should be considered.

I would think insurance companies would welcome a reduction in deer numbers in populated areas, considering the injuries and vehicle damage that can occur.

I haven’t even talked about migratory birds. Compensation is usually provided, although not if a winter swath grazing crop is destroyed.

Rules for all wildlife programs need to be fine-tuned and compensation provided where warranted. This will keep agriculture in harmony with wildlife and protect wildlife for future generations to experience.

DAIRY CALVES | COLOSTRUM

Experts study Timing important, but colostrum quality also key factor bacteria to create vaccine

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

The old saying, “you need to learn to walk before you run,” is apt in vaccine research.

Researchers hope to discover how a bacteria interacts with the cells of pigs’ intestines before trying to develop a vaccine to halt the disease it causes, which is still unnamed.

“We start with an understanding of what is happening at the intestinal cell level,” said Dr. John Harding of the University of Saskatchewan’s Western College of Veterinar y Medicine.

A team of researchers, led by Harding, is taking a new tack to understanding and controlling brachyspira hampsonii, which causes diarrhea in grower and finisher pigs.

A vaccine is traditionally made either by growing the bacteria and feeding it live to the animal or growing the bacteria, killing it and injecting it into animals to create antibodies against the disease.

However, this disease’s relatives have proven resistant to traditional vaccine development.

Harding’s team is using a threeyear research grant to start at the cellular level to find out how the disease causes inflammation in the large intestine and damages cells. Once the researchers find out how the disease works, they can attempt to develop blocking mechanisms.

The disease is a new species of bacteria that has been around for a long time.

It was originally discovered in the 1970s and was widespread for many years in pig barns. It disappeared in the 1990s as older contaminated barns were taken out of service and new larger barns were built that had yet to be contaminated.

The disease caused by the bacteria began to appear again in the early 2000s.

It can cause death in severe cases, although pigs recover from the diarrhea. However, it does cause major economic losses because of increased mortality and reduced growth rates and feed efficiencies.

The disease has been seen in pig barns only in Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Testing and reporting isn’t mandatory so officials don’t know exactly how prevalent it is.

Harding said they are using a multidisciplinary approach to understand the disease with experts in physiology, microbiology, pathology and swine medicine. He hopes this will help determine the interactions between the pathogens and animals’ intestinal cells.

Harding said it is too early to say if the research will lead to a cure, but it is leading to a “promising interpretation of what is going on in the intestine.”

The goal is to understand the mechanism and then propose strategies on how to develop a vaccine.

He hopes to have enough answers by the end of the three-year grant that will allow him to apply for a grant to develop a vaccine.

“We have to start somewhere. You can’t discover these things overnight,” he said.

Timely delivery of quality colostrum is integral to the health of dairy calves.

That isn’t news to dairy producers, Dr. Gordon Atkins acknowledged at a recent calf management workshop in Lethbridge.

However, more attention can be paid to colostrum quality, said the University of Calgary veterinary medicine professor and researcher.

The dairy code of practice recommends calves receive at least four litres of high quality colostrum, and at least half of that should be administered within the calf’s first six hours.

Atkins advised against feeding too

much at once and recommended testing the colostrum for quality.

“Every modern dairy should be monitoring the quality of their colostrum,” said Atkins.

He demonstrated a basic colostrometer, which works by measuring specific gravity of the milk, as well as the BRIX refractometer, which will give immediate readings of immunoglobulin concentration, referred to as IgG or serum level.

Atkins said a serum reading of 10 grams per litre was once considered the gold standard for colostrum, providing good passive transfer of antibodies to calves.

However, he said levels of 15 to 20 should be the new standard.

“The higher we can get that serum

IgG level, the more protection that calf is going to have” against respiratory pathogens, navel infections and other health problems, he said.

Atkins also recommended pasteurizating colostrum, which has become more affordable with improved equipment. Freezing is a good way to preserve colostrum for later use, but Atkins cautioned producers to pay attention to the container to avoid bacterial contamination.

Care must also be taken to warm frozen colostrum slowly so its benefits are not destroyed by excess heat.

The veterinarian favours giving colostrum through a bottle feeder rather than an esophageal feeder.

Allowing calves to suck a bottle or a nipple bucket has benefits over the

longer term.

“Researchers tell us that it is important,” he said. “It’s important to influence secretion of insulin. There’s certain hormones in the digestive system that it’s important for. And we know that calves after they’ve been fed, if they’re in groups, they want to suck each other to satisfy that sucking stimulus.”

Feeding from nipples reduces calves’ urge to suck on each other.

However, nipples can harbour cryptosporidia bacteria, which can be difficult to sterilize without harming the rubber.

Calves’ sucking desire is also satisfied in auto feeding systems, but too many calves result in competition, and less aggressive animals may not get enough milk.

Flood plan may force residents to move Water management | Albertaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water plan may displace Little Bow River residents

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

The Alberta government plans to spend $600 million to build dikes, dams, reservoirs and diversions to protect communities against future flooding.

Some of these projects, if they go ahead as proposed, may force residents who live along the Little Bow

River in southern Alberta to move.

One of them is Shirley Pickering, a retired farmer and environmental scientist. She and others in the region want the province to consider the economic, environmental and social impacts of new infrastructure such as diversions and dry dams.

The proposed diversion plan for her area affects 70 kilometres of the Little Bow River and may force peo-

ple to leave or lose farmland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At least 10 or 12 families would have to be relocated out of the valley,â&#x20AC;?

Pickering said.

The province, which has been talking with communities and engineering firms about ways to prevent future flooding, presented its plans at a special water management symposium in Calgary April 29.

Environment minister Robin Campbell said the government has decided to deal with flood and drought management on a watershed basis because one area cannot be repaired without looking at how it will affect others.

Engineers and the government also looked at the Red Deer and Athabasca watersheds but decided that no work is currently needed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had hundreds of options and everybody had an opinion,â&#x20AC;? Campbell said.

The government has said it will start meeting with those involved soon.

New dams and diversions will affect public and private land, so compensation must be negotiated with landowners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There will be stakeholders who question whether plans are in the appropriate place,â&#x20AC;? Campbell said.

Pickering could be one of those.

Flooding was significant in her area last spring. Wells and property were damaged, and residents hauled fresh water for six months until their wells recovered.

The Little Bow River is in a narrow valley and has a riparian zone of mostly native pastures and some irrigated forage crops. Besides a diversion, a dry dam is also under consideration on the upper Little Bow, 16 km downstream of High River. Water would be held and s l ow l y re l e a s e d ov e r a c o u p l e months. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From a community perspective, turning it into a floodway will come with some damage if they put it down there,â&#x20AC;? Pickering said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Little Bow River is bank full at

She and her neighbours are part of the Upper Little Bow Water Users Association, which they formed when the government wanted to add water storage in the valley 20 years ago.

Numerous studies and reports have been done on how to handle floods in Alberta. Pickering said these latest initiatives are politically driven and an attempt to amend past mistakes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our history of bad planning has given us this tough legacy to deal with,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Pickering also sits on the Highwood River Management Planâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s advisory committee, which has been studying ways to manage the droughts and floods common in the region. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This flood thing seems to be happening outside of regular water man-

agement procedures,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Norine Ambrose, executive director of the Alberta Riparian Habitat Management Society, has been working with the provincial task force on potential projects. About $20 million has been set aside for natural solutions such as improved and restored riparian areas and wetlands.

Ambrose doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think dams and diversions are the solution. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not going to build enough dams to ever stop flooding,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not only do we not have the resources to do it, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put dams everywhere.â&#x20AC;?

Diversions are supposed to be used only at high water events.

However, one of the issues is how much flooding to allow because it is part of the natural cycle. For example, stands of cottonwoods need flooding to regenerate themselves.

Large calibre kabulis | Processor plans to add cleaning and sizing equipment to facility this summer

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A new pulse processing business hopes to revitalize the moribund chickpea market.

Colin Young is getting back into the business three years after a fire destroyed R Young Seeds, a processing plant in Mortlach, Sask., owned

by Young and his parents.

The plant was the largest chickpea processing and exporting facility in the country, shipping 40,000 tonnes of product a year.

After the fire, Young took a job building and running the Agrocorp International pulse processing plant in Moose Jaw, where he kept a watchful eye on the chickpea processing business.

“What I saw over the last three years is that no processor dedicated attention to chickpeas,” he said.

Young thought somebody would take over the chickpea side of the pulse trade, but processors are heavily focused on lentils and only dabble in chickpeas.

So he decided to quit Agrocorp and start Midwest Investments with two partners: brothers who own a large farm in the area.

“We will dedicate ourselves to creating a presence for chickpeas, and that has to end up having net results for farmers,” said Young.

They are building a processing plant this summer near Moose Jaw that will size, clean, sort and bag kabuli chickpeas.

Temporary cleaning and colour sorting equipment is already in the facility, and the partners will add new cleaning and sizing equipment this summer to expand production.

“We want to be able to set up to move from a farm-based, small production (plant) into a full commercial facility,” he said.

The plant will specialize in processing large calibre kabulis, which Young believes will have more allure to growers because of better price prospects.

“I believe the chickpea market is

Colin Young and partners have created Midwest Investments to build a chickpea processing plant near Moose Jaw, Sask., and rebuild the chickpea industry based on new larger varieties. | FILE PHOTO evolving into a nine millimetre and over market and an eight mm and under market with a fairly significant price spread between those two calibres,” he said.

“I’m going to say a five cents per pound spread.”

Young estimated that half of this year’s chickpea crop in Canada will be planted to new large calibre varieties, such as CDC Orion and CDC Leader.

He is particularly excited about CDC Orion, which has agronomic characteristics similar to CDC Frontier, a variety familiar to experienced growers.

Midwest cleaned a large amount of CDC Orion seed bought from seed growers this winter.

The company kept 40 percent of the 10 mm seed, which it will market this summer. Young wants to prepare customers for what is coming because this is the first time Canada has sold chickpeas that big.

The remainder of the CDC Orion seed was sold to growers for planting

this spring.

Canada has been facing stiff competition in the small calibre chickpea market because of increased production in Russia and Argentina.

“What they’re producing is small calibre chickpeas, but they’re selling them incredibly cheaply, like 12 cents a lb. cheap,” said Young.

It’s why the market for small calibre kabulis has fallen below the 20 cents per lb. level in Canada, he added.

Unattractive prices and the lack of a dedicated chickpea processor have contributed to a lackluster sales program for the crop.

Canada exported 17,131 tonnes of chickpeas in the first seven months of 2013-14, down from 41,566 tonnes for the same period a year ago. By contrast, pea and lentil exports have been well above normal.

Growers are expected to carry more than 114,000 tonnes of chickpeas into the next crop year because of the dismal export performance, which is up from 42,000 tonnes the previous year.

It will lead to a significant contraction in spring planting. Statistics Canada is forecasting 100,000 acres, or about half the amount seeded last year.

Young expects 90 to 95 percent of those acres will be kabulis.

He believes the chickpea industry can be rebuilt by focusing on marketing quality large calibre product.

Midwest Investments intends to make chickpeas an easier crop to sell.

“I’m going to bring very simple clarity to marketing chickpeas. I offer across-the-board prices with a very simple discount schedule,” said Young.

“There are no clauses with minimum percentages of this and maximum percentages of that.”

There will be daily prices, no handling charges and up-front payment.

“When we buy grain, we will pay for it 100 percent when they deliver,” said Young.

“We’re putting in huge storage as well so that when we commit to taking grain, we’ll take it on time.”

MEAT | SALES

Meat processor Tyson Foods warns of declining pork supplies due to piglet virus (Reuters) — Tyson Foods expects pork supplies to fall as much as four percent this year because of the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.

Tyson’s quarterly profit report rose to $213 million, an increase over last year but short of analysts’ expectations.

Shares of the largest U.S. meat processor plunged on the news.

PED reduced hog supplies in

Tyson’s latest quarter, but that was partially offset by heavier animal weights.

Tyson expects PED to peak in August and begin to ease in October.

Beef sales volumes slipped 1.8 percent in the second quarter, hurt by reduced slaughter to match falling export sales.

Beef prices have soared now that

the U.S. cattle herd is the smallest since 1951.

International sales are struggling.

Continued weakness in China, where Tyson is making significant investments to build poultry operations, accounted for most of the $30 million loss in the company’s international business.

“We think the worst is over and it

should get sequentially better from here, but we’ll need to see demand recovery before we can predict when we’ll reach profitability in China,” said Donnie Smith, Tyson’s chief executive officer.

The company also warned that overall domestic protein production for the year ending September would decrease about one percent, mostly

due to lower hog supplies.

Ty s o n s a i d i t e x p e c t t o s e e a reduction of fed cattle supplies for beef of three to four percent in fiscal 2014.

The company said it expected sales of about $37 billion for fiscal 2014, above the average analyst estimates of $35.94 billion, according to Thomson Reuters.

aking the short trip to a sunshine state to avoid the cold Canadian winter does not seem like such a bad idea for western farmers.

Since last summer, these “snowbirds” may have found it tempting to extend their stay in the sun because of the news that the U.S. Senate is considering changing immigration legislation.

Under this new legislation, Canadian retirees older than 55 who spend at least $500,000 on a residence can stay up to 240 days in the United States without a visa.

However, snowbirds should be cautioned that spending more than 182 days could result in significant tax implications because the tax and immigration laws do not line up with each other.

An individual is now considered a U.S. resident from a tax perspective if the sum of all days spent in the U.S. in the current year, one-third of the days spent in the U.S. in the preceding year and one-sixth of the days spent in the U.S. in the second proceeding year total 183 or more.

How e v e r, a n i n d i v i d u a l w h o spends less than 183 days in the U.S. should file specific forms to establish their status as non-taxable in the U.S. so long as they maintain a closer connection to another country where they wiil be filing income tax.

Snowbirds who extend their stay to more than 182 days because of new U.S. immigration legislation would

be deemed a U.S. resident for tax purposes and would no longer be able to file the necessary forms to claim otherwise.

Snowbirds would be unhappy to hear that they would be subject to U.S. tax on their worldwide income and be required to file a U.S. tax return just as a U.S. citizen would, in addition to their Canadian filings.

As a deemed U.S citizen for tax purposes, these snowbirds could also be subject to an increased U.S. estate tax exposure, in which individuals are taxed on the total value of their estates.

To make matters worse, Canada and the U.S. are implementing a new joint entry-exit system this summer.

Border officers will keep track of when people enter and leave each country, which is different from the current system, which tracks only on an entry basis.

Snowbirds should monitor the number of days they spend in the U.S. and make sure that they are not overstaying their welcome.

An extra two months in the sun would always be nice, but no one likes a surprise phone call from the Internal Revenue Service or Canada Revenue Agency.

Harsh U.S. weather and geopolitical turmoil in Ukraine have humbled several global grain traders.

Bunge reported a surprise loss for the first quarter May 1, saying it had bet wrongly on the direction of wheat prices.

The world’s biggest agricultural traders, including Archer Daniels Midland and Cargill, were slammed by a series of exceptional events in the first part of the year, from a severe winter “polar vortex” in the United States to rail capacity problems to the rejection of corn imports in China.

Bunge swung to a $27 million loss in the three months to March 31 from a $170 million profit in the same period last year.

It cited a 55 percent slump in its trading and distribution division as the biggest drag, saying tumult in Ukraine had upended its strategy.

“We expected a lower price environment, particularly in wheat, which did not materialize,” chief executive officer Soren Schroder said.

“Political turmoil in the Black Sea and deteriorating winter wheat conditions in the U.S. were the primary catalysts for the wheat rally, which ignored the more-than-adequate global stocks.”

trading and had been expected to benefit from bumper harvests just a year after the worst U.S. drought since the Dust Bowl days of the 1930s.

Instead, they have emerged as some of the most evident losers from this year’s unexpected commodity market volatility, which has carved a sharp divide across the trading industry.

ADM reported slightly lower net earnings of $267 million for the recent quarter, down $2 million from the same time last year.

It reported a 19 percent decline in its core grain merchandising and handling operations.

“Our ag services business again generated weak results due to a low margin environment as well as logistics and weather challenges in the U.S,” said ADM CEO Patricia Wurtz.

Cargill has reported net earnings of $319 million for the third quarter ended Feb. 28, down from $445 mil-

lion a year earlier. Revenue was $32 billion, nearly even with a year earlier.

The company had steep losses in energy trading in the quarter.

Cargill said earnings for its grain sector were down from a year earlier because of costs related to China’s rejection of genetically modified U.S. corn.

As well, it said there were generally “limited opportunities” in grain trading and storage.

ADM said it is moving ahead with plans to buy the remaining 20 percent stake in Toepfer International.

It gave no indication that its efforts to buy Australian agribusiness Graincorp are back on the table.

Graincorp is in the process of seeking a new CEO to replace outgoing CEO Alison Watkins.

ADM said discussions with Graincorp could resume after management changes at the Australian grain company are complete.

Want to be in control of when and how you spray? The cab-forward / rear-engine configuration of Case IH Patriot® sprayers minimizes rutting and soil compaction and allows you to get in the field sooner. And our exclusive AIM Command® spray system technology option allows application rate and spray pressure to remain constant, regardless of sprayer speed or field conditions.
