The CWB’s pool programs have been hit hard by this year’s transportation delays.

The delays might also affect CWB’s ability to attract new pool business in 2014-15, a company official said.

Vice-president Gord Flaten said delivery opportunities for grain contracted through CWB pool programs have been limited.

“Like everybody else, we’ve had lots of issues getting deliveries as scheduled this year so we are behind in some of our early delivery contracts,” he said. “What we have been focusing on, and what most farmers who have those contracts have been focusing on, is just trying to find any delivery opportunity.”

Some farmers who contracted grain under CWB pool programs are withdrawing from the pools and selling grain to competing elevator companies that offer immediate delivery.

CANOLA | CLUBROOT

New clubroot pathotype | Agronomists discovered the resistant strain in central Alberta last year

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

It didn’t take long for clubroot to overcome the resistance bred into canola varieties.

A new pathotype has been found near Edmonton that can attack all the resistant lines that have been sold in Canada since the first one hit the market in 2009.

“I don’t think it’s widespread yet,” said Stephen Strelkov, professor of plant pathology at the University of Alberta. “We’ve only found it at the core of the clubroot outbreak in central Alberta.”

The Canola Council of Canada will be co-ordinating a survey in the Edmonton region to get a better read on the pathogen’s prevalence and distribution in the area.

Strelkov said the new pathotype was probably residing in the soil at low levels and then became more

pronounced with the increased use of resistant varieties.

“In some ways, it’s not surprising that the first cases are here in central Alberta, where the clubroot infestation is the heaviest and where there has probably been resistant varieties grown for the longest amount of time,” he said.

Dave Harwood, technical services manager for DuPont Pioneer Canada, said growers can count on the new strain to spread beyond the Edmonton area.

Clubroot has been detected in more than 1,000 fields in Alberta since it was first discovered in a canola field in that province in 2003.

It is expanding its reach at a rate of 20 to 25 kilometres per year. It has also appeared at low levels in Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

Harwood isn’t surprised that it took only five years for the resistance to break down based on what he has

witnessed with rust resistant wheat lines.

“I have developed a healthy respect for plant pathogens,” said Harwood.

The new strain was discovered when canola council agronomists noticed something unusual in an Edmonton field while conducting a disease survey last year.

Disease levels were much higher than they should have been, given that the farmer was growing a resistant variety.

Laboratory tests later confirmed that seven commercially available clubroot resistant cultivars were all susceptible.

In some cases 80 to 90 percent of the plants were infected.

Clubroot is a nasty disease that can cause up to 80 percent yield loss in an infected field.

“Once you get an infestation in a field, it becomes a management issue in perpetuity,” said Strelkov.

“Other diseases come and go.”

The canola council says growers now need to be extra vigilant in adhering to stewardship.

“We are advising that growers practice good sanitation on their equipment, especially during spraying under wet conditions,” Curtis Rempel of the canola council, said in a news release.

“This applies to equipment moving between all fields, not just those currently growing canola, since clubroot spores remain in the soil for years.”

The level of required sanitation depends on the level of clubroot risk in the area, varying from knocking off clumps of soil to pressure washing and disinfecting equipment.

Farmers in clubroot areas should plant canola only once every four years.

Resistant canola … not resistant

NEWS

JULY 3, 2014 | WWW.PRODUCER.COM | THE WESTERN PRODUCER

Resistant canola not resistant Growers are being asked to scout resistant varieties with extra vigilance this year. Producers should contact their council agronomist or seed company representative if levels are higher than expected and are in defined patches in the field.

Other stewardship measures include controlling volunteer canola, wild mustard and stinkweed in years when canola is not planted, minimizing tillage in clubroot regions and avoiding the use of seed, straw, hay, green feed, silage and manure from infected or suspected areas.

Strelkov said the good news is that he has identified genes that are resistant to the new pathotype.

Harwood said it would be nice if those genes were found in canola or rapeseed rather than more distantly related crops. All of the existing sources of resistance on the market came from winter rapeseed crops in Europe.

“The transference of that to spring canola in the Prairies is a relatively straightforward breeding exercise,” he said.

“Moving a trait from a related species is not so straightforward.”

DuPont Pioneer has been screening lines for additional sources of clubroot resistance since it released its first line in 2009. It’s possible that some of those sources will be resistant to the new pathotype.

CWB | FROM PAGE ONE

Rail delivery delays take toll on CWB Terms of CWB’s 2013-14 early delivery pool stipulate that grain must be available for delivery by Jan. 31, 2014. The deadline was extended to the end of February but deliveries are still more than four months behind schedule.

“We still have guys that are looking for deliveries … even for their early delivery pool contract,” Flaten said.

“It’s frustrating when things don’t work out as planned, so that might affect some people’s decision to sign up (to CWB pools) next year … but I think most people recognize that the whole environment changes from year to year.”

CWB is not releasing information about the amount of grain contracted under its 2013-14 pool programs or the volume of grain that remains to be delivered against pool contracts.

However, with only one month remaining in the 2013-14 crop year, farmers are worried that a significant amount of grain contracted into last year’s pools will still be sitting in the bin when harvest begins.

Last week, The Western Producer received a number of emails suggesting that elevator companies are refusing to accept delivery of CWB grain, knowing that farmers will buy out of CWB contracts if they have an opportunity to deliver to another elevator on the cash market.

“Elevator companies have been refusing to accept delivery of board grain but will take it if you sign a contract with them,” said an email from an anonymous source.

“If you phone the (CWB) and ask about your options, they will tell you that you can either roll to next year or buy out of your contract.… We don’t want to deliver next year and we don’t want to pay because the CWB can’t meet its obligations. We want our bins empty before harvest and

we want to get paid for last year’s crop.”

Flaten did not suggest that competing elevator companies are intentionally denying delivery opportunities to CWB customers as a way to generate extra tonnage for themselves.

However, he conceded that delivery opportunities for CWB grain have been hit and miss this year.

“Sometimes the (delivery) opportunities come up without much prior notice,” he said. “It varies a bit by company and it varies within a company, station by station.… We’ve got the sales and can move it, but it depends partly … on each company’s own selling and movement programs, too. Everybody has shipments that are behind schedule, so if a company or a station has a lot of cash business of their own that they want to move, they may prioritize that over the pool contracts.”

Flaten declined to share details about the terms of CWB’s grain handling agreements, including contractual penalties that could be applied against elevator companies that fail to meet their obligations to handle CWB grain.

CWB still sees value in maintaining its agreements with competing elevator companies, he added.

“We’re still interested in having handling agreements with companies that do want to work with farmers who have pool contracts,” he said.

“I expect we’ll have most, if not all of the companies working with our contracts into the future. The vision is to have a mix of ways to originate grain, so we will definitely be buying grain through our own facilities, but we do intend to keep promoting producer cars and buying grain through handling agreements with other companies.”

WORLD CONGRESS ON CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE | BEST PRACTICES

Farmers told to clean up their act — or else Howard Buffett issues warning | The avid supporter of soil health warns farmers to change practices or governments will

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Howard Buffett has a message for farmers: change your environmental practices or someone will change them for you.

Buffett, chair of the Howard G. Buffett Foundation and the son of billionaire investor Warren Buffett, said producers, particularly in America, haven’t been taken to task for agriculture’s impact on water quality.

However, the “free ride” for farmers is coming to an end.

“Ever ybody has talked about hypoxia and the Gulf of Mexico for 25 years, but nobody has been able to do anything about it. All you have to do is look at a map and you know exactly where it’s coming from (and) who’s doing it,” said Buffett, who spoke over lunch at the World Congress on Conservation Agriculture, held in Winnipeg June 22-25.

“We haven’t had to change our practices…. In any other profession, you would never get away with that.

Never.”

Buffett sits on the boards of companies such as Berkshire Hathaway and Coca Cola, but his passion is agriculture. He has farms in Illinois, Nebraska, Arizona and South Africa, has practiced no-till for 20 years and touts the promise of zero-tillage and cover crops.

Buffett also supports the Brown Revolution, a movement that promotes the importance of soil health.

Following his presentation in Winnipeg, Buffett met with 15 members of the farm media to share his thoughts on the state of conservation agriculture.

If I’m an environmentalist … my two big targets (would be) Florida, the Everglades, and the Midwest with the nitrogen runoff and phosphate runoff.

HOWARD BUFFETT HOWARD G. BUFFETT FOUNDATION CHAIR

around him and a bottle of Coke within reach, Buffett said environmental groups and policy makers aren’t going to ignore the ecological sins of farmers much longer.

“If I’m an environmentalist … my two big targets (would be) Florida, the Everglades, and the Midwest with the nitrogen runoff and phosphate runoff.”

If growers don’t clean up their act soon, governments could mandate certain practices on the industry, he said.

Buffett said many growers don’t adopt conservation agriculture practices because ingrained habits such as intensive tillage die hard.

“So much of it is about perception,” he said.

“If farmers can kind of get over the fact that everything doesn’t have to look perfect all the time. That’s what tillage is about. It looks good. Makes you feel good.”

However, he said those feel good practices are compromising water quality and threatening soil health.

During Buffett’s lunchtime presentation, a member of the audience

RENE VAN ACKER PLANT SCIENCE PROFESSOR

said producers in the United States and Europe don’t adopt zero tillage because those farmers receive generous subsidies and have little incentive to innovate.

Buffett agreed.

“In the United States … we can afford to over-fertilize and pay the bill,” he said.

“We can do things that allow us — I don’t mean this be as derogatory as it sounds — to be a little lazy.”

Rene Van Acker, a University of Guelph plant science professor, has criticized growers for what he calls “Betty Crocker” farming, or crop production based on a simplistic recipe.

Van Acker said such phrases are used to initiate a discussion about agricultural practices rather than insult a wide swath of farmers.

“I don’t think Mr. Buffett was intending to call American farmers lazy,” said Van Acker, who attended the conference.

“But I think farmers would agree they have multiple responsibilities.

They have responsibilities to their cash flow and their business model, but they also have responsibilities to the land and the environment.”

GROWING FORWARD 2 | IMPACT OF CHANGES

Unseeded acres won’t bring big AgriStability payout

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Growers counting on AgriStability to bail them out of their excess moisture problems better think twice, says a Manitoba farm group.

Keystone Agricultural Producers said the program has been gutted under Growing Forward 2.

“I don’t think producers appreciate or understand just how significant the cutbacks have been,” said president Doug Chorney.

Substantial changes to the program took effect on April 1, 2013. The program wasn’t put to the test that year because growers harvested a recordsmashing crop.

However, 2014 could be a different story. By some estimates, 4.6 million acres will be unseeded and drowned out across the Prairies this year.

Growers who expect to be adequately compensated for their lost revenue may be in for a rude awakening.

KAP hired an accounting firm to

What we have encouraged our members to do is know all their costs very well and be very prudent in managing costs because I certainly wouldn’t hold out hope of a big cheque coming from AgriStability.

DOUG CHORNEY KEYSTONE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCERS PRESIDENT

conduct a case study on one of its members who had a significant grain operation that was flooded out in 2011.

The idea was to compare what level of compensation the farmer would have received under the old and revised Growing Forward programs based on his experience in 2011.

“Only 50 percent of the benefit that would have been in Growing Forward 1 was available to that producer, so it significantly curtailed the protection that program once offered,”

said Chorney.

Growers have heard presentations and read material on changes to the AgriStability program, but many haven’t gone through the actual submission process and don’t fully realize what’s coming.

“What we have encouraged our members to do is know all their costs very well and be very prudent in managing costs because I certainly wouldn’t hold out hope of a big cheque coming from AgriStability,” said Chorney.

KAP vice-president Dan Mazier

was so intrigued by the case study numbers that he decided to conduct the same exercise for his farm near Brandon. The results were identical.

“If I would have had the same kind of wreck that I had in 2011, I would get half the money,” he said.

Mazier said a program intended to provide income stability on farms is falling far short of that goal.

“You have to be so in the hole to even think about triggering anything, it’s getting pretty sad,” he said.

Glenn Young, a former tax accountant and producer representative on the National Canadian Agricultural Income Stability Committee, said the biggest change to the program is the coverage level.

Under the new AgriStability program, producers are covered once their margin falls below 70 percent of the previous five year average with the high and low years thrown out.

Growers receive 70 cents in support for every dollar of decline below that

70 percent. Under the old program, it was 85 percent coverage and 85 cents on the dollar.

“Really, when you think about it, 70 percent of 70 percent is 49 percent,” said Young.

“You’re not going to get rich on this program.”

The other punitive change is that the reference margin will be limited to the lower of the historical reference margin or the average of producers’ allowable expenses reported in previous years.

Young said adding the expense clause penalizes efficient growers who are careful about what they spend on things such as input costs.

It also makes it more difficult to build up the reference margin than it is to reduce it.

“You’re not going to go and overspend just simply to build a margin,” he said.

“I mean, farmers are some of the most fiscally prudent people in the world. You have to be or you wouldn’t survive.”

PED | FEED

Hog producers urged to halt plasma feed

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

Despite the clear link between feed and early cases of porcine epidemic diarrhea in Ontario, some producers are still feeding porcine plasma to young piglets.

Of the roughly 80 producers on a June 26 Alberta Pork PED conference call, 10 said they were still feeding some form of porcine protein plasma to their young animals.

Egan Brockhoff, a veterinarian with Prairie Swine Health Services and a member of the National Task Force For PED Elimination, said producers should stop doing that.

The initial cases of PED in Ontario were traced to feed containing the virus, he said.

“The research was very conclusive that plasma was the source.”

Veterinarians have petitioned the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to stop allowing pork plasma, blood cells or meat and bone meal to be fed back to pigs.

“I know the veterinary community has supported putting continued pressure on the government to stop feeding same species to same species,” said Brockhoff.

“I am very happy to say all my producers I work with, not a single one is feeding pork protein.”

Doug MacDougald, a veterinarian with South West Ontario Veterinary Services who has dealt with some of the PED outbreaks in Ontario, said he too has advised farmers to stop feeding porcine protein products.

“Our position is very clear that we will not support feeding porcine or protein products in feed,” he said.

Brockhoff said it’s clear as he travels across the country talking to producers that some of them are still feeding porcine plasma to piglets as part of their initial starter ration.

Porcine plasma is believed to give the young animals a readily available, highly digestible protein.

Feeding porcine plasma is still a common practice in the United States, where 75 percent of the sow herd is infected with PED. Canadian producers need to be aware of the potential source of infection.

“If you have porcine protein in your feed, it has to be considered a live animal,” said Brockhoff.

EXCESS WATER | MANAGEMENT

Tile drainage saves crop in wet years Worth the investment | Alberta farmer not sold on vacuum planters and controlled traffic farming

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

LACOMBE, Alta. — Craig Shaw isn’t afraid to try new things, whether it is experimenting with controlled traffic farming or seeding canola with a vacuum planter.

However, he says the most important new technology for his farm near Lacombe, Alta., is tile drainage.

“It’s the difference between a crop and no crop,” he said during a tour of new technology experiments on his farm.

“It’s the best investment we have made since the no-till days.”

A decade of excess rain has increased the water table, either making it difficult to begin seeding in the spring or forcing him to work around myriad potholes and wet areas.

“I don’t see us getting over the high water table issues until there is a drought,” said Shaw, who is installing drainage tiles throughout his farm to help lower the water table and allow him to seed.

However, the controlled traffic farming experiment hasn’t been as successful because of the excessive moisture.

In controlled traffic farming, all the equipment follows the same tracks in the field to reduce soil compaction. Shaw said it seems to be beneficial in areas with less moisture but does not give the same returns as tile drainage.

He has mixed feelings about the benefits of using a vacuum planter to seed canola.

The planter places the seed with precision accuracy in each row, but it is sometimes difficult in his

heavy loam soil to get accurate depth control.

Shaw has also experimented with row spacing in canola, and his field plots are now grown 12, 18 and 24 inches apart.

As well, he grows canola anywhere from 1.5 to three pounds per acre with the different row spacings to find the ideal width and seeding rate with the vacuum planter.

“If we can use less rows, we can bring our costs down,” said Shaw.

Dave Hazlett of Red Deer said sometimes there is too much fussing with details with the vacuum planter and not enough talk about the seed cost savings.

“We were doing a horrible job with our air drill. By using a vacuum planter, we reduced seed to two lb. an acre from five lb. The seed costs alone justified it,” he said during the tour.

“We just love the thing.”

Hazlett said the vacuum planter produces a seven bushel per acre yield increase over the air drill because of the precision planting.

“I wouldn’t go back.”

He uses the vacuum planter only for canola.

The downside of the planter is its lack of fertilizer capacity, which forces farmers to make a second pass for fertilizer placement.

Shaw said he is honest during the tour when he talks about what he thinks of the technology and techniques used on his farm because he wants farmers to learn from his successes and mistakes.

Technology is changing quickly, and everything is expensive, said Shaw.

“I have no bias. I admit when I make a mistake.”

PORT OF CHURCHILL | SHIPPING OUTLOOK

Churchill port official confident despite rail service disruption

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The company that owns the Hudson Bay Railway line connecting The Pas, Man., and the Port of Churchill says recent track closures will not affect grain shipments through the northern port this year.

Merv Tweed, president of OmniTrax Canada, said the company is still hoping to ship at least 700,000 tonnes of grain through the northern port this year.

“I actually expect to ship more, maybe 750,000 or 800,000,” Tweed said. “I still think we have the capac-

ity to do a million tonnes out of there.

Time will tell, but I’m very optimistic, though, that our (2014) goals will be met.”

Rail service on the line, which is the only one servicing the port, has been shut down for much of June.

Thirteen cars of a 50-car grain train derailed about 30 kilometres south of Churchill in early June, interrupting service for a week. The line reopened June 9 but was closed again June 20 because of heaving caused by frost.

Crews were repairing a section of track between Gillam and Churchill last week.

Tweed said OmniTrax hopes to

restore service by July 5, barring any unexpected weather delays.

The latest two-week closure will throw freight traffic behind schedule, but Tweed said the company has enough grain stocks in place at Churchill to ensure that incoming vessels can be filled as soon as they arrive.

This year’s shipping season is scheduled to begin during the week of July 13-20.

Fewer than 30,000 tonnes of grain were in storage at Churchill as of midJune, according to Canadian Grain Commission figures.

Tweed said more grain has arrived

since then. He estimated stocks at 50,000 to 55,000 tonnes. Terminal capacity is 140,000 tonnes.

Provincial transportation and infrastructure minister Steve Ashton said the province wants to see the track reopened as quickly as possible.

In addition to hauling grain, Hudson Bay Railway carries essential goods for Churchill and other communities in remote regions of Manitoba and Canada’s Far North.

The federal and provincial governments each committed $20 million over five years in 2007 to upgrade the northern rail line, which runs more than 500 kilometres through difficult

wilderness terrain.

Ashton told reporters June 25 that the province might be open to providing more financial help to ensure that the railway is repaired and upgraded when necessary.

“Whether it requires further investments in the future, again, we’d be prepared to sit down and talk …,” he said.

“But what we have to do in the short term is get that rail line reopened.”

Discussions involving government funding would also have to involve Ottawa, he added.

Churchill moved 640,000 tonnes of grain last year.

FARM POLICY | CLOSURE

Doors closing at influential ag think-tank George Morris Centre | Assets of farm policy research organization will be gifted to University of Guelph ag college

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A think-tank that has influenced agricultural policy in Canada since the 1990s will be closing its doors later this year.

The G eorge Morris Centre in Guelph, Ont., will be dissolved in the next six months and its assets transferred as a gift to the University of Guelph’s Ontario Agricultural College.

Plans to dissolve the organization were announced in a news release issued by the centre June 19.

Board chair Bob Funk said details regarding the transfer of centre’s

GRAIN | TRANSPORTATION

assets and the future of its staff will be worked out over the next few months.

In the meantime, the centre will remain open and researchers will complete work that is already underway.

The centre employs six employees, down from 12 at the height of its growth several years earlier.

“Right now, there’s a transition team … that will decide how it all fits together and how it all moves over to the University of Guelph,” Funk said.

“I don’t think any of us know what the answers to all of the questions are. It’s something that’s a work in progress.”

The centre was named after its

founder, George Morris, an Ontario farmer who donated half his estate to fund the agricultural think-tank. It was established in 1990 and operated as part of the University of Guelph until it became a non-profit charitable corporation in 1998.

It has published numerous reports and studies, many advocating the elimination of market distorting mechanisms such as supply management and single-desk marketing.

Morris had stipulated that the centre’s assets be turned over to the university if it was ever wound down.

Managing director John Scott said assets, including money left in the centre’s endowment fund, will be

turned over to the university.

Officials in charge of the transition will decide how the assets will be managed.

Centre officials said it is likely that the George Morris name will remain visible on projects or facilities that benefit from the endowment.

“Obviously there’s value in the George Morris name … so the University of Guelph will likely be interested in having his name attached to the legacy pieces,” said Funk.

The centre has helped shape Canada’s agriculture and agri-food landscape by conducting research and facilitating policy discussions on key issues affecting the ag sector.

Funk said several factors led to the decision to dissolve the non-profit centre.

The increasing size and cost of research projects require more resources and more “critical mass.”

“Essentially, we’ve kind of gotten to the point where it needed to be rolled back in together with something,” he said.

“The world has changed. The projects are bigger so you need more critical mass to do research and you need (a bigger) variety of researchers.”

Scott declined to say how much money was left in the centre’s endowment fund.

GROUNDWORK

CP must outline plans to fix U.S. backlog CP, BNSF railways must provide status updates

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

American rail regulators have issued an order requiring Canadian Pacific Railway and BNSF Railway Co. to submit plans outlining how they intend to resolve a backlog of unfilled grain car orders in the United States.

In a ruling dated June 20, the U.S. Surface Transportation Board ordered BNSF and CP to submit plans by June 27, outlining steps that each railway will take to address the backlog of grain car orders on their U.S. networks.

In addition, the two railways have been ordered to provide weekly status updates that provide details on how much grain is being moved.

As part of these weekly updates, the railways will be required to provide state-by-state data on the number of grain car orders outstanding, the number of new cars ordered each week, the number of orders filled, the number cancelled by shippers, the number cancelled by the railways and the average delays in all outstanding car orders.

In addition, CP will be required to submit a plan for ensuring a “fluid and reliable interchange of loaded and empty cars” with Rapid City, Pierre and Eastern Railroad Inc., a regional rail carrier based at Rapid City, South Dakota. RCP&E, a subsidiary of the short-line and regional railway group Genesee & Wyoming, hauls freight on more than 1,000 kilometres of track in South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming and Minnesota.

“Although data submitted by both railroads (BNSF and CP) indicates some initial progress toward reducing their grain car order backlogs and grain car delays, the (STB) remains very concerned about the limited time period until the next harvest, the large quantities of grain yet to be moved and the railroads’ paths toward meeting their respective commitments,” the STB ruling stated.

Federal government puts transportation review into high gear Recommendations coming next year | Alliance Grain Traders boss among advisers

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Federal transport minister Lisa Raitt has announced the statutory review of Canadian transportation legislation will take place a year ahead of schedule.

China expands storage, boosts stocks Bumper crops | Analyst expects China won’t help consume a record American corn crop

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Grain markets are heading for trouble with China awash in corn and wheat and a massive U.S. corn crop on the way, says an analyst.

China announced last week that it will boost government grain reserves by 25 million tonnes this year and build 50 million tonnes of new storage over the next two years.

“They’ve got so much grain they’re choking on it,” said Dan Basse, president of AgResource Co. China said June 1 that it already has 100 million tonnes of corn in government reserves. Basse estimated there are another 40 to 45 million tonnes of wheat.

“Unless they have the development of a dire drought later in the summer or next year, I wouldn’t be expecting the Chinese to be significant in the world grain market for 12 to 24 months,” he said.

A drought appears unlikely because the weather in China has been nearly perfect this year.

The country was the world’s second largest corn exporter from 1999 to 2002 and would like to be a major seller once again.

However, World Trade Organization accession rules don’t allow it to subsidize exports and flood the market.

As a result, the government either has to let the grain rot or build new storage and figure out how to get rid of its excess grain in the years to come.

The Chinese government has been conducting weekly grain auctions to help reduce reserves, but they haven’t been well received. The government recently announced it would pay processors a $17 per tonne subsidy to buy grain at the weekly auctions.

It was once hoped that China would be the saviour for grain markets in the face of slumping biofuel demand, but Basse said markets have been guilty of overestimating Chinese grain demand and underestimating its production.

His sources in China say the U.S. Department of Agriculture is also understating China’s 2014-15 wheat

China on the sidelines of the world grain market will make it difficult for the United States to find a home for what is expected to be a massive 2014 corn crop.

“We’re going to have some Illinois corn fields that will do 300 bushels per acre, but there’s a good chance that Illinois corn averages over 200,” said Basse.

“I mean, it is that kind of year we’re seeing right now.”

Crop conditions have been ideal in many areas. Basse wouldn’t be surprised if the national average was 170 to 180 bu. per acre, which is well

above the USDA’s projection of 165 bu.

“We’ve had four years of less than favourable weather here in the central U.S. This is the first year in which weather looks to be pretty good,” he said. “We think this is one of those years in which corn yields can do 15 percent over trend.”

Basse said that would be shocking because slumping biofuel demand has boosted global grain stocks around the world.

“It means lower prices and lower profits,” he said.

“I don’t know how else to say it.”

In the meantime, China announced last week that it is scrapping its minimum support price program for grains and replacing it with a more market-oriented target price subsidy program. The new policy will be tested on soy and cotton before being applied to major crops such as rice, corn and wheat.

Basse said the goal is to reduce the gap between what China pays for crops such as corn versus the world price.

Last year’s minimum price contract for corn in China was $10.20 per bu.

Offering prices that are higher than the world price is leading to increased imports and contributing to China’s bloated grain reserves.

Basse said China has also been taking other steps to reduce imports, such as banning shipments containing Syngenta’s Agrisure Viptera trait known as MIR 162.

The trait is still awaiting approval from Chinese regulators despite gaining approval in the European Union, which is the toughest market to receive approval for genetically modified crops.

“You can’t play the MIR 162 lever forever,” he said.

CROP PRODUCTION | SEEDED ACRES

Farmers favour pulses, oilseeds over grain crops Lentil area up 35 percent | Statistics Canada projects only six million acres of barley

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BARLEY

Nobody loves barley.

Farmers usually push a few more acres into canola than they expected in the spring.

Special crops acreage is volatile year to year.

Those long-lived phenomena appear to be playing out again this year in the farm fields of Western Canada.

Statistics Canada’s seeded acreage numbers show a 14 percent decline in barley acres, an increase in canola acres to 20.2 million acre, and big increases in the acreage of some types of peas and lentils.

“Barley acres just over six million?

Gee, that’s not much,” FarmLink Marketing’s Jon Driedger said June 27 after the Statistics Canada report was issued.

L ong-ter m trends have been friendly to canola, seeing its acreage rise each year as farmers seed every acre they can to the oilseed.

Traders and analysts are often surprised with canola acreage increases, not only beyond initial Statistics Canada estimates of intentions but beyond their own boosted estimates of what farmers really have put in the ground.

This might be one of those years, if farmers seeded what they intended.

The flip side of that coin is the phenomenon of barley, formerly one of Western Canada’s dominant crops but now failing to hang on to core acreage.

Wheat has also had trouble fending off acreage losses to canola, corn, and soybeans, but it has occasionally clawed back some acreage and regained popularity.

However, with barley it’s been a steady slipping of acreage. This year’s 14 percent decline pushes it further down in prominence, suggesting it is grown mostly by farmers with close connections to the cattle feeding market, whether with their own animals or local feedlots.

Malting barley is becoming a special crop, mostly grown in tight connection with end users.

“We’ve seen maltsters coming out early with some pretty decent contracts,” said Driedger.

A common market refrain is that “the answer to low prices is low prices,” and that principle may offer some relief for farmers who stuck with barley this year, according to Errol Anderson of Pro Market Communications.

Farmers have cut back so much, the price outlook is becoming bullish.

“If StatsCan is accurate about six million, we’ll have some snug supplies next spring,” said Anderson, who works closely with feed barley buyers. “If (other cereal) crops are OK, the market may recover from October onwards.”

However, continuing wet and cool weather could significantly down-

grade wheat quality, which would see bigger supplies of feed wheat available to livestock feeders. That would weigh down feed barley prices.

Chuck Penner of LeftField Commodity Research said the story in pulses is interesting, with differences showing up within crop types rather than between them.

Green peas are surging in acreage, but yellow peas have increased only slightly. The green increase was generally anticipated, but the lack of increase in yellow might create a peppy market later in the year.

“It’s already a good market,” said Penner.

One hundred percent of the increase in lentils is in reds, while greens have fallen a bit.

Penner said he thought the red market was fairly strong, so the increase shouldn’t be too bearish. However, the lack of increase in greens could help boost prices for that type.

“Greens could get more interesting as the year goes on,” said Penner.

The Statistics Canada report had little impact. Most traders said the market had already moved on to worrying about poor growing conditions in Western Canada, with revisions in acreage a secondary concern.

“The weather in the next week or two is going to matter a heck of a lot more,” said Driedger.

SEEDED ACREAGE Wheat area is down from last year as farmers make a big move back into pulses, special crops and flax, according to a Statistics Canada survey. Analysts expect wet weather since the survey was conducted caused actual seeded area to be less than reported.

Meal from carinata, a potential biofuel, has recently been approved for cattle feed in Canada. |

ALTERNATIVE CROPS | BIOFUEL

Regulatory hangups slow growth of carinata Agrisoma is working with the U.S. government to get biofuel approved

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

There are plenty of carinata research plots but no grower contracts this year in Western Canada, despite the hopes of crop developer Agrisoma Biosciences and crop marketer Paterson Grain.

The Ethiopian mustard, brassica carinata, has potential as a biofuel crop and is suited to the Prairies.

However, earlier plans to offer production contracts this year were scrapped when the federal government took longer than expected to approve carinata meal for cattle feed and the U.S. government didn’t approve the oil as part of its biofuel blending mandate.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issues renewable identification numbers (RINs) to approved biofuels, but carinata doesn’t have them.

Ken Mudry of Paterson Grain said the two approvals from the two governments were needed to increase the value of the crop for growers and marketers.

“We’re over one hurdle and we’re working toward the approval with the EPA in the U.S. to get approved for RIN credits,” he said.

“We’re quite optimistic it will get approved before next spring.”

In the meantime, Mudry said Paterson is looking to contract carinata acres in Montana and Florida for next year.

“We’re trying to get our ducks in a row for Western Canada again.”

Jet fuel is the ultimate market for carinata oil, but until that increases, the oil will go into the biodiesel market, said Mudry.

“The challenge is to ensure that we scale up and that Agrisoma continues to look at enhancing the performance of the crop itself, enhancing yield, looking at the profile of the oil and the meal and all

DARYL MALES AGRISOMA

that good stuff.”

Daryl Males, breeding and agronomy director for Agrisoma, said his company has mustard research plots at 32 sites this year and progress is being made toward hybrid varieties that will hopefully bring the same advantages as hybrid canola brought to that crop.

“The diversity in all breeding programs in our mustard group is really tight and historically has been because Canada has been a quality, quality, quality market,” Males said.

“It was very limited genetically, and now we’ve made a real attempt to bring in diversity, both at Ag Canada and Agrisoma, in all classes of mustard.”

Research is made possible through funding from Saskatchewan mustard growers and the Canadian Mustard Association, which contributed money that has since been augmented by federal funding through Growing Forward 2.

Males said carinata has a longer season but is higher yielding than common mustard and does well under heat stress.

It has the same nutritional requirements as canola and yields 10 to 15 percent better under stressful conditions.

Males said the crop will take advantage of high moisture, is highly competitive against weeds and is resistant to shattering.

He acknowledged that farmers have been wooed before by biofuel crop possibilities, including camelina.

Carinata is different because bio-

fuel produced from its oil has already passed tests in jet aircraft, and its developer, Agrisoma, has a strong marketing partner in Paterson Grain.

To get full advantage from the crop, Males said work is ongoing to reduce the glucosinolates in the seed so the meal can be used in pig, chicken and dairy rations as well as those for beef cattle.

As for price, Mudry said Paterson has a specific goal.

“Producers in Western Canada have told us that they would grow it if it was at parity to canola values, so that’s the thing that we’re targeting,” he said.

“Before we go to full scale contracting, we have to ensure that we can deliver that value to producers.”

CANOLA MEAL | FISH FOOD

Canola sector courts Chinese fish food maker Aquaculture feed | SaskCanola is examining ways to improve canola meal digestibility by removing the hull

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

One of the world’s largest manufacturers of aquaculture feed remains keenly interested in Canadian canola meal.

Representatives of the Saskatchewan Canola Development Commission and the University of Saskatchewan met in May with Tongwei Group in China to discuss the potential for using canola meal in the company’s feed rations.

“Tongwei is the largest producer of aquaculture feeds in China, which means they’re enormous,” said Murray Drew, associate dean of academics with the university’s agriculture college.

He was impressed with Tongwei’s knowledge and interest in canola meal as evidenced by its president attending the meeting.

“He’s the eighth richest man in China and he’s a member of the Central Committee (of the Communist Party of China), so he’s a very important guy and very busy, but he took the time to sit down with us,” said Drew, who specializes in aquaculture nutrition research at the U of S. Feed manufacturers are becoming increasingly interested in developing crop-based feeds for aquaculture, which is one of the fastest growing sectors of the food industry, according to the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization.

Aquaculture accounted for 42 percent of world fish production in 2012, according to a recently released FAO report. That’s up from 26 percent in 2000.

China dominated by producing 62 percent of the 67 million tonnes of aquaculture fish in 2012. The next highest producer was India at six percent.

Fishmeal is still the top ingredient in feed rations, but production of fishmeal from whole fish has been declining since 2005, while feed

Feed makers are eyeing opportunities for crop-based feed for the growing aquaculture sector. | REUTERS/SUKREE SUKPLANG PHOTO demand from the aquaculture industry has skyrocketed with the proliferation of intensive fish farm operations.

Soybean meal is the next most popular ingredient, but Drew said there is also a place for canola meal.

Tongwei was keenly interested, he added.

“They want to know if they start buying this stuff that they have a steady supply. They said in some respects they were worried that they couldn’t get all the canola that they wanted from Canada,” he said.

“I thought, ‘well, that’s kind of a nice problem to have.’ ” Tongwei announced during a 2012 Canadian trade mission to China

that it intended to buy up to one million tonnes of Canadian canola meal annually by 2015. At that time, it was buying 200,000 tonnes of the product a year.

The one million tonne objective seems a stretch, largely because sales of canola meal to China were temporarily disrupted by a Chinese government requirement to inspect all foreign crush facilities to ensure they met the government’s new safety standards.

Exports to China plummeted from a high of 824,554 tonnes in 2010 to zero last year.

However, Richardson International announced in March that it was the first Canadian crusher to gain Chi-

nese approval to resume meal sales.

Canola meal is more economical than soybean meal and fishmeal.

The price of fishmeal in Vancouver was $1,750 per tonne June 2 compared to $677 for soybean meal and $453 for canola meal, according to Agriculture Canada.

The problem with canola meal is the hull, which is indigestible and contains anti-nutritional factors that prevent animals from eating it in large amounts.

It limits the amount of canola meal that can be fed to fish such as trout and salmon. Fortunately, one of Tongwei’s primary customers is the carp industry, and carp do well on canola meal.

Tongwei officials say canola meal can comprise up to 30 percent of their carp rations.

“We always think of canola meal as the poor sister (of soybean meal), and that may not be true in some of the applications in aquaculture,” said Drew.

SaskCanola is interested in funding a joint research project between the U of S and Tongwei.

“We believe there could be postcrushing processes that would improve the meal so it would be palatable and digestible by fish,” said SaskCanola executive director Catherine Folkersen, who accompanied Drew on the China trip.

Drew recently attended an international fish nutrition meeting in Australia where he learned about a Norwegian company making fish rations out of trees using yeast fermentation technology.

He believes the same technology could be employed to remove the problems associated with the canola seed hull. Tongwei is also investigating the technology.

SaskCanola believes the two organizations should work together on a joint research project partially funded by Saskatchewan growers.

Folkersen said incorporating canola meal into aquaculture diets would be a home run because the industry now relies almost entirely on the U.S. dairy sector.

The United States took 95 percent of the 3.3 million tonnes of Canadian canola meal exported last year.

“We are in a bit of a precarious situation with our largest customer being the U.S dairy market,” said Folkersen.

“What happened a few years ago when there was the issue with salmonella and feed in canola meal? The door just closes, right now.”

Folkersen said having multiple markets for the product would drive up the price of canola meal and hopefully result in higher canola prices for growers.

OILSEEDS | SOYBEAN/CANOLA TRENDS

Record canola imports alter U.S. oilseed balance sheet

BY GAVIN MAGUIRE & D’ARCE MCMILLAN REUTERS, SASKATOON NEWSROOM

CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — American soybean users are importing record amounts of the crop from South America to help make up for an exceptionally tight supply of the oilseed in the United States.

However, Brazilian soybeans are not the only crop to benefit from the demand as record amounts of Canadian canola also make their way into the U.S. The flow is expected to continue to northern U.S. crushers as long as processor margins remain firm and Canadian growers have excess supplies following a record crop last year.

Statistics Canada figures show that Canada exported a record 765,299 tonnes of canola to the U.S. from August to April, which are the most

FROM AUG. TO APRIL, CANADA EXPORTED A RECORD

765,299 tonnes OF CANOLA TO THE U.S. recent figures available. It was more than double the 338,784 tonnes in the same period last year and up 63 percent from the previous five-year average of 469,020 tonnes.

The flow of canola is expected to generate record production of canola meal and oil, which are likely to steal market share from soy over the coming months.

Overselling of the 2013-14 soybean crop to overseas buyers by U.S.based traders is the chief reason for the imports, leaving domestic processors with tight inventories.

This comes after American growers

produced one of the largest U.S. soy crops on record last year, which led to early expectations of a crop surplus going into the 2014-15 season.

Instead, domestic soybean crushers have been faced with an unprecedented shortage of soybeans for most of 2014 and have been forced to ship in supplies from other countries to sustain processing operations.

The main conundrum for Midwestbased soy crushers is that even after soybeans from other countries arrive at a U.S. port, they have a long journey across the country or up river

before processing can take place.

The problem is less acute for processors in the upper Midwest and northern Plains because of closer rail and truck shipments from Canada.

The northern crushing plants are close to widespread canola production, which means they tend to have multi-seed processing capabilities that allow them to switch from soybeans to other crops whenever supplies or economics dictate.

It is widely believed many northern U.S. facilities increased canola processing and cut back on soybean crushing as much as possible.

If that is the case, it raises the possibility that demand for soybeans in that region runs a greater risk of falling than in other parts of the country until the new crop is harvested.

Harsh weather coupled with heavy rail congestion on key lines across Canada and the northern U.S. slowed

the flow of canola early this year.

That left the door open to South American soybeans to take a majority share of U.S.-bound oilseed shipments early in 2014.

However, despite the rail problems, Canadian canola exports to the U.S. were at unprecedented levels in February, March and April, exceeding 100,000 tonnes a month.

Only once before, in December 2011, had U.S.-bound canola exports topped 100,000 tonnes.

U.S. soybean imports also set a record during the period, but the tonnage of rapeseed imports was actually larger and the crop should be given due consideration by anyone hoping to understand the U.S. oilseed market going forward.

magine if every combine yield monitor on the continent was wirelessly linked to a massive data storage and analysis bank, continuously uploading real time harvest results.

As the combines rolled, a detailed picture of the size of the North American crop would take shape.

This would provide a far more detailed picture of the crop than any Statistics Canada or U.S. Department of Agriculture survey.

It would be prized information for the grain industry, from grain users to handlers to railways.

Take it a step further.

This massive databank receives information right from the start of the production year. Farmers upload details about their seeded acreage and input use. The system continuously monitors weather down to the field level and knows how farmers are reacting to changing conditions by spraying for pests or top dressing with fertilizer if rain has created problems with what was applied at seeding.

This system would have a more indepth handle on production potential through the growing season than any other organization.

This might seem a bit futuristic, but

New technology and agronomic advisory services offer a leap forward in precision farming, but also create a massive bank of data, creating the need for privacy protections. | FILE PHOTOS the first steps down this road have already been taken.

You may have heard of the FarmSight system from John Deere, DuPont Pioneer’s Field360 or the Climate Pro system offered by Climate Corp., which Monsanto bought last year.

They offer a potential leap forward in precision agriculture.

Subscribers provide details about their land, seeded crops and machinery, and the systems use the data and sophisticated weather information to provide recommendations on things such as the timing of fungicide

or fertilizer applications.

For example, Climate Pro’s Nitrogen Advisor uses local weather data and soil moisture to track nitrogen loss through the season. It can calculate crop stress due to shortage of nitrogen and make recommendations for top-up applications.

You can see the attraction for farmers who want leading edge technology to get the most from their crops.

There is the privacy issue about the information they have about your farm, but there is also an issue of the power they get from aggregating the information from many thousands of farms.

FOOD SAFETY | SAFE FOOD FOR CANADIANS ACT

CRAIG’S VIEW

Proposals in food safety act will help calm consumer fears

I

t’s been a while coming, and that might not be a bad thing if they get it right.

Details are finally starting to emerge about the Safe Food For Canadians Act, which was passed by Parliament in 2012.

The move to modernize the country’s food safety systems will bring four acts under one all-encompassing law.

A key proposal of the new act would license all food manufacturers in the country. The regulation should assist in developing new points of contact between government and processors. Ongoing relationships are important to opening dialogue channels, which should, in the longer term, help develop accurate and fair information sharing in times of crises.

Communication breakdowns were cited as a major problem during the tainted beef recall of 2012 at XL Foods in Brooks, Alta., which ultimately led to the temporary closure of the plant and its reopening under new ownership.

Licensing would also set out clear rules of accountability for food processing companies, spell out requirements for preventive control plans such as the hazard analysis critical control points system, have stricter record keeping requirements, have clear recall plans and mandate stiffer penalties for companies that place consumer health at risk.

There are also requirements that foreign food imports comply with Canadian regulations, thus ensuring domestic manufacturers are not placed in a disadvantaged position because of the new regulations.

As well, initiatives that improve scientific testing, equipment and laboratory facilities to speed up and improve inspections speak directly to public concerns that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and food manufacturers need to respond more quickly in times of emergency.

The plan to establish 10 teams to oversee and audit inspectors at federally registered meat processing facilities should add another level of consumer protection.

An audit team that can regularly assess procedures, as well as offer analyses and reviews from a more distant and hopefully dispassionate perspective, might be able to correct mistakes made by on-the-ground inspectors, or provide added support for their decisions.

There is still a long way to go before the final details are known. The federal government is only now starting to gather input and reaction to its proposals.

The final version of the regulations isn’t expected to be complete until sometime next year.

However, the overriding principles to modernize, clarify and unify existing rules make good sense. The world and our food manufacturing systems have changed dramatically in recent years, and we need a food safety and inspection system that keeps up.

Concepts like being able to trace meat back to the packer or the farm weren’t even contemplated when the last rules were written.

We live in an age where consumer skepticism and engagement are extremely high.

They want to know where their food comes from and they want to be assured it is safe.

A thorough and quick-acting system that balances company accountability with consumer protection and communication will serve farmers well.

A situation that’s permitted to spiral out of control, sparking public outcry and lack of confidence in the safety of our food, ultimately reverberates all the way back to the farm in tarnished reputations and lost sales.

COMMUNIQUÉ FROM JOHN F.T. SCOTT MANAGING DIRECTOR OF THE GEORGE MORRIS CENTRE

BEES | SEED TREATMENT

Neonicotinoids: to ban or not to ban, that is the question for Ambrose CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

W

hen longtime Conservative MP Rona Ambrose w a s n a m e d C a n a d a’s health minister last July, it’s unlikely she was expecting one of her most controversial files to be bee health.

Yet, for such a small insect, bees are proving to be a major public relations thorn in Ambrose’s side.

For more than a year, environmentalists, scientists and beekeepers have been sounding the alarm over the heavy use of a popular class of pesticides called neonicotinoids.

Developed in 1991, nenonics are used as a seed treatment on corn, canola and soybean seeds. A systemic pesticide, the highly toxic chemical permeates the entire plant structure,

protecting it from harmful pests.

Use of the chemicals is widespread, with an estimated 92 to 95 percent of corn acreage in Canada and the United States treated with neonics.

Grain farmers are adamant neonics are essential to modern agriculture, arguing their removal would see crop yields drop by more than 20 percent.

Neonic supporters also insist the pesticides are being used as a scapegoat, overshadowing other threats to bee health. Massive verroa mite outbreaks, habitat problems and harsh winters are equally, if not more, to blame for the sudden decline in bee populations, they say.

However, beekeepers, environmentalists, the National Farmers Union and a growing number of scientists are convinced neonics are responsible for mass bee deaths, averaging nearly 30 percent per year.

These death tolls, they say, are simply not sustainable.

The Task Force on Systemic Pesticides released the most recent report on the subject June 24. The project saw 29 independent scientists from around the world spend four years

analyzing the findings of more than 800 peer-reviewed independent and industry-led studies on neonics.

The result of their research is a thorough report containing one of the most damning analyses released thus far.

“The evidence is very clear,” Dr. Jean-Marc Bonmatin, the project’s lead researcher, told reporters in Ottawa June 25. “We are witnessing a threat to the productivity of our natural and farmed environment equivalent to that posed by organophosphates or DDT.” The report will be made public in the peer-reviewed journal Environment Science and Pollution Research next month.

Public and stakeholder reaction to the report was instantaneous, fierce and highly divisive.

With the task force now adding its names to the list of folks who want the pesticides banned, at least for a minimum of four years, Ambrose finds herself in a precarious situation.

Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency is conducting an investigation into the use of neonics

in Canada, but the final report is not expected until sometime next year.

Still, it is worth noting that even the PMRA admitted in September 2013 that nenonics (via contaminated dust from corn planters) have contributed to major bee deaths in Ontario and Quebec.

Up to this point, Ottawa brushed off calls for a moratorium, insisting any decisions on the sensitive subject must be science-based.

Ambrose, meanwhile, continues to insist the science remains “inconclusive,” a stance she reiterated while taking questions in Toronto June 24.

The task force findings, however, make it harder for Ambrose to dispute. The peer-reviewed research was conducted independently, by some of the world’s top toxicology, pesticide and insect health scientists.

It is also one of the most thorough of its kind on the topic.

The European Union has already imposed a two-year moratorium on three neonicotinoid pesticides. Here in Canada, several communities, along with the province of Prince Edward Island, are contemplating a

similar ban. One county in Ontario (Prince Edward County) has already banned the use of the pesticides on municipal land.

There’s no disputing that the bee health file is a complicated and divisive issue both within the farming community and outside it. Whatever Ambrose decides to do, someone (be it farmers, beekeepers, the scientific community or the general public) will be left fuming by her decision.

While Ambrose may be able to avoid the topic for a few more months, thanks to Parliament’s summer break, bee health is expected to rear its head in Ottawa when MPs and senators return to the Hill in the fall.

That’s when the Senate agriculture committee, which has spent much of the past year immersed in a comprehensive and detailed study of bee health, is expected to release its final report.

Whatever its findings, the report will be sure to garner major political and public buzz.

& OPEN FORUM GRAIN MARKETING | PRICE REVIEW

FARM SHOWS | ECONOMY

Open market prices: reality or rhetoric?

Busy farm shows pleasant indicator of healthy sector

BY JOHN DEPAPE

S

upporters of the CWB single desk have made comments in the media about wide spreads between country elevator prices and west coast port prices. Their assumption is that this means windfall profits for grain companies at the farmers’ expense.

Some are arguing that this year’s lousy basis is the result of no longer having the CWB single desk. We are all troubled by the lousy basis levels, but let’s put it in perspective.

The last year of the CWB single desk, 2011-12, saw the final pool return, in central Saskatchewan, work out to $1.12 per bushel under the average Minneapolis futures over that crop year.

This was $2.41 below the average west coast port price for the same time period.

In the first year without the single desk, 2012-13, the average basis in central Saskatchewan was 82 cents under the Minneapolis futures.

At $1.79 below the average west coast port price for that crop year, this was substantially better than the previous year under the CWB single desk.

And so far this year, the average country basis is $1.54 under, which on average is $2.99 below the west coast port price. The country-to-port spread has ranged from about $1.50 to more than $4.50 per bu.

However, this year saw a market anomaly that most of us have never seen before: buyers not buying. The short time basis was at its widest (or worst) during the same time that most grain buyers weren’t buying wheat.

Farmers have seen better basis levels for their grain since the end of single desk marketing, says the author. | FILE PHOTO As a result, the average “effective” country basis is better than the calculated $1.54 under, and the average country-to-port price spread is not as bad as the $2.99.

So, although single desk supporters point to the widest spread all year as an indication that grain companies are making huge profits at the farmers’ expense, the facts don’t support it. How can you calculate profits when there was little or no business that occurred at the prices used in your calculation?

With the single desk, farmers had no control over the basis or spread to port prices: you got what the CWB got for you. In the last year of the single desk, that worked out to $1.12 under futures, or $2.41 per bu. less than the average port price. However, farmers now have more control, and that means marketing opportunities.

In 2012-13, the first year without the single desk, the country basis averaged 82 cents under futures, but it

was as narrow as 24 cents under and for the better part of the year it was better than 50 cents under.

This year, country basis was as good as 59 cents under before it started its slide.

Comparing these basis levels with port prices, one year the average country-to-port spread was better than with the single desk and one year it was worse.

But the two years since the end of the single desk are more similar than you might think.

After entering the 2012-13 crop year with excellent prices for CWRS (nearly $9 per bu.), country prices slid dramatically to below $8 per bu.

Farmers were unhappy, to say the least, especially those who didn’t price early.

As well, rail service was less than desirable, with a backlog of close to 16,000 cars by mid-April 2013.

Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? This year, we had a backlog of 60,000 cars

by mid-April and a basis of $1.85 under.

However, the previous year was different in one significant way: the average wheat basis was only 25 cents under at the peak of the rail backlog in mid-April. No one was complaining about basis, except perhaps grain buyers who were paying up to get fresh deliveries.

Also, I don’t remember farmers complaining about poor movement last year. Why complain about shipping when there’s space in the elevator and you’re reluctant to sell it anyway?

Any way you look at it, we’ve seen better basis levels in each of the two years since the end of the single desk than in the final year under single desk control. Even in this lousy year, you had the opportunity to lock in a much better basis than the single desk did in its last year, and many did.

We need to take a hard look at reality before we consider a return to central control as a remedy for this year’s problems.

In the past two years, farmers have had the opportunity to obtain a better basis and better spread to port prices than existed under the single desk. Open market critics should not cherry pick data and assume all farmers sold at the worst possible time.

The fact that most buyers weren’t even buying when things were at their worst and most sales were done at better to much better basis levels should be enough to demonstrate how far off the mark their approach is.

Prairie production potential takes a beating HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

T

his year’s prairie harvest will not be a bin buster like it was last year.

In fact, we’ll need some luck to just achieve an average crop across Western Canada.

There are certainly many areas, particularly on the western Prairies, that still have above average potential, but yields will be seriously curtailed in many other regions.

Record shattering production last year was based on almost all regions performing well. There weren’t many weak links in the chain.

This year has seen far too much rain, particularly in eastern Saskatchewan and western Manitoba but

in many other areas as well.

As this is being written, another general rain is forecast with large amounts expected in many of the areas that are already struggling.

Conventional wisdom is that rain makes grain. You lose a few water logged low spots, but you make it up with greater than normal yields elsewhere. While this could still hold true in some areas, in many more cases, the rain has simply been overwhelming.

Although not as widespread as 2010, unseeded acreage is substantial. Some producers have little crop in the ground. Their year was over before it began.

Even worse, a lot of land that was seeded has been lost, along with the investment in seed, fertilizer and weed control. Even when the land isn’t under water, the crop is often yellow from excess moisture. There will be some recovery if it stops raining, but yield potential has been lost.

The lateness of the crop is also a major concern. It’s July and the days are already getting shorter. It’s startling to see how many crops are just

poking through the ground. Their development is more typical of early June.

We’ve been lucky with late crops before. It appeared improbable that last year’s crop would mature in time, but we were saved by hot weather in August and September and a much later than usual killing frost. The bin busting crop was also pretty good quality overall.

Mi r a c l e s c a n re p e a t , b u t w e shouldn’t count on it. The likely scenario is that many of the later crops will suffer frost damage, greatly reducing quality and perhaps also quantity.

Soggy field conditions have hampered weed control efforts. Many crops could not be sprayed at the optimal time. Some may miss their herbicide application altogether.

There will be some extremely weedy fields.

Lots of moisture will likely mean even more disease than usual. Producers will wrestle with how much fungicide application is warranted.

It’s more usual at this time of year to

be talking about big regions that are suffering drought. Limited rainfall and hot weather in June has often fried crop potential somewhere on the Prairies by this juncture.

We haven’t had any hot weather this year. Most of the time, the temperature has struggled to reach the low 20s C. Protein levels in wheat and durum are likely to be lower than normal. A significant portion of the wheat could end up in the lower grades from frost and/or wet harvest weather, and more canola than usual could be downgraded due to frost. It could be a poor year to be trying soybeans.

Of course, weather patterns can change quickly and a lot can happen between now and harvest. However, based on current conditions, prairie yields are likely to be highly variable with overall production as well as quality down dramatically from last year.

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

F

arm shows are always a good source of information, not just for farmers, but for editors, too.

As do most of our readers, I like to see the latest in technology and new ideas. We know what you like from your feedback, polling results and internet statistics analysis, all tempered by experience.

Yes, we can see what you look at on our website, geographically where you come from, how long you stay and a variety of other information about you and 100,000 or so other users of producer.com.

Don’t worry, it just applies to our site. Where you go after that is more of a CSIS or NSA thing.

Farm shows also tell us about you, but with fewer statistics.

I watch producers’ activities around show booths: are they busy, do they retain people longer and do people brave pouring rain to visit them? Canada’s Farm Progress Show in Regina is especially good for measuring the latter question.

After more than 20 years of covering farm shows and 30 years of attending them before that (I was a farm kid in the 1960s and 1970s), I have tied producer activity at these events to the health of the farm economy.

Far m shows typically drew a diverse crowd in the early 1990s, younger farm families and older producers alike. Younger farmers tended to visit on a Friday, or if there was a Saturday event, on Saturday. Likely, they had day jobs.

However, fewer families attended as that decade wore on. Older producers were still there, but there were fewer couples and young men.

This demographic shift matched farm income and consolidation statistics.

The negative margin years of the early 2000s saw the crowds get greyer and new products become fewer as tight farm economics trickled into the machinery and technology sectors.

Families and young farmers nearly vanished in Western Canada by 2006. Then the commodity rise of 2008 hit, and fall shows that year were busier.

Attendees, both sellers and buyers, have become more diverse since 2009.

I don’t think there are any more buyers than there once were, but there are more new ideas for sale and more people interested in buying them.

And kids once again run everywhere at the shows. It feels healthy to me.

HIGH RESEARCH STANDARDS To the Editor: Re: “Pesticide research cuts ignore human health issues: biologist” (WP, May 29).

Alice Hontela is suggesting a study is required on the potential risks related to pesticide use.

However, Canada’s regulatory system already requires hundreds of studies, which are reviewed to ensure these products can be safely used.

The plant science industry takes its responsibility to protect human health and the environment very seriously. We are meticulous in our

research, conducting hundreds of studies, which are reviewed by regulatory authorities around the world, to ensure that our products will safely enhance the ability of farmers to protect the food they grow.

Canada has established a worldclass science-based process to evaluate pesticides, one that assures safeguards are in place to protect human health and the environment.

The reality is that Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency evaluates all pesticides to ensure they do not harm human health, future generations or the environment.

Readers should know that the ongoing Agricultural Health Study in the U.S., which tracks 89,000 individuals, showed that farmers and their spouses actually have much lower rates of mortality from cardiovascular disease, diabetes and total cancer compared to others of the same age living in the area.

Regulators have an obligation to ensure that their decisions are founded on the best available scientific information.

As science evolves and new information becomes available, products are re-evaluated to ensure they continue to meet the latest health and environmental risk assessment standards.

Ms. Hontela speaks of the risks vs. benefits, but the reality is Health Canada will not approve any prod-

BIG APPETITE uct, no matter the benefits, if the risks are deemed unacceptable.

In fact, pesticides have never been safer. They are applied at everdecreasing rates and are much more targeted than ever before. Canadians should have peace of mind in knowing that all pest control products are highly researched and regulated.

COST OF LIVING

A sparrow hangs on tight to its lunch as it surveys the surroundings at Kleskun Hills Park near Grande Prairie, Alta. | RANDY VANDERVEEN

To the Editor: The politicians and statisticians all blandly tell us that the cost of living is staying “comfortably under the two percent increase range.” What planet do they live on?

In my world, I have found that everything I have to buy just to live has increased one-third in the last year.

We are not talking here of the newest model car or the new house or the cruise to tropic islands. I am talking about the ability just to survive without any frills, or emergency expenditures, to feed and clothe a family and try to evade the advertising of useless junk that is everywhere you look.

Working people are no longer able to think in terms of saving, because

mere survival takes it all, notwithstanding all the fancy figures we are fed.

Jean H. Sloan, Lloydminster, Sask.

EDUCATION NEEDS To the Editor: There is an ugly and protracted battle going on between B.C.’s teachers and provincial government, and as predictable as those conflicts are, so must follow endless public handwringing about the fate of the children and the potential dire impacts of a disrupted education.

The majority of the world can only look at our situation and think: “we should be so lucky”.

Currently, 57 million primary grade kids are out of school. Barely half of all countries are expected to provide primary education by next year.

Yet it used to be much worse. Due to

the efforts of the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) and donors like Canada, since 1999 the number of uneducated children worldwide has been halved.

A good example is Afghanistan: the number of children attending school has gone from one to 11.5 million, and almost half are girls.

But the need is enormous, and later this month the GPE is slated for renewed funding and is facing an annual shortfall of $26 billion.

Canada needs to double its current commitment of $60 million if the GPE is to achieve its goal.

Compared to B.C., the challenges facing education in the rest of the world are far more dire. But while B.C.’s education issues are complex, this one is very simple.

The (Stephen) Harper government doubling it’s commitment will help ensure that the GPE reaches those final 57 million kids.

A

n excellent true-to-life Scripture story is the story of Job, who was a most honourable man. He had wealth of family, wealth of land and livestock, and wealth of reputation.

But with one devastating blow after another, everything was taken from him. It affected his spiritual and physical health, his social status and his reputation.

His friends judged and advised him. They assumed he had done something terribly wrong, which resulted in God’s punishment. They believed God was intolerant of any wrongdoing.

Through all this condemnation, Job proclaimed his innocence. He suffered in silence, refusing to believe the gossipy solutions his advisers suggested for how he might “redeem” himself.

The story is as old as the ages and as modern as today. When tragedy

strikes, who of us has not been quick to wonder about the cause? Who of us has been quick to advise another on how to “set things right?” Confess, pay your penance and beg God’s forgiveness.

Some people carry burdens of “guilt” all their lives: “If only I hadn’t said …” “I should have done …”

A sense of low self-esteem clouds one’s outlook on life and makes us feel shackled. Life is heavy.

Job scratched his sores as he sat on the garbage dump of life, but he couldn’t accept the simplistic pronouncements of the naysayers. He wanted to believe God was honourable as he was honourable.

As the darkness receded, he heard God challenge him, encourage him, expand his understanding. The wonder of the Creator’s acts exploded in Job’s mind. He recognized the grandeur and grace.

No longer would Job allow himself to be tossed by the accusations of others. He had come face to face with the God of his faith and bowed in humility.

He knew this God was not intent to punish, but longed to exist in harmony with all that was created.

TEMPORARY FOREIGN WORKERS PROGRAM | MEAT SECTOR

Maple Leaf says foreign worker reforms difficult 10 percent cap by 2016 | Foreign workers can now make up 30 percent of a company’s workforce

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Trade deals are helpful to the meat industry only when companies have employees to slaughter cattle and hogs, says a Maple Leaf Foods spokesperson.

“You can only take advantage if you can competitively produce a product in Canada,” said Rory McAlpine, vice-president of government relations at Maple Leaf.

“There’s a disconnect in failing to address the labour challenges that we face.”

McAlpine said the industr y is already dealing with a hog shortage, and the federal government’s recent reforms of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program are not helpful.

“We’re struggling for a number of reasons with competitiveness,” he said.

“It’s not going to make it any easier to operate plants.”

Employment and social development minister Jason Kenney introduced changes to the temporary foreign worker program in June, including a 10 percent cap on the percentage of foreign employees at a workplace and cutting the length of time a temporary foreign worker can spend in Canada from two years to one.

Kenney promised to fix the program following alleged abuses by fast food restaurants this spring. Three McDonald’s restaurants in British Columbia allegedly gave more shifts to foreign workers, while a restaurant in Weyburn, Sask., fired long-time waitresses to hire foreign labour.

McAlpine said the government needed to crack down on the abusers, but many companies use the program sensibly.

“Key industries, like meat … have demonstrated very responsible use of the program and (had) very successful transition of foreign workers

to permanent residency.”

McAlpine said Maple Leaf employs approximately 1,200 foreign workers in Western Canada.

“Of those, 917 are now permanent residents,” he said.

“They came in as (temporary) foreign workers, but they’re now permanent residents.”

He said reducing the length of time a temporary foreign worker can stay in Canada from two years to one undermines the practice of transitioning employees to permanent residency and prevents them from becoming stable members of a community.

Foreign workers have to satisfy English language standards to qualify for permanent residency. In many cases, it’s impossible to meet that requirement in one year, McAlpine said.

“By imposing that one year limit … they are really taking the legs out of the successful formula that we and many others in the (meat) industry are using to transition those temporary workers into permanent residency.”

Ron Davidson, the Canadian Meat Council’s director of international trade, government and media relations, said the meat industry is concerned about the reforms.

As part of the changes, employers must reduce their proportion of temporary foreign workers from 30 percent to 10 percent by July 1, 2016.

Davidson said that could be a difficult task for certain meat processing plants because it’s hard to convince Canadians to work at slaughter plants.

“We don’t know more what we can do to recruit Canadians. That’s the problem. The whole industry is trying to do it and we just aren’t getting people.”

McAlpine said most packing plants are located in rural Western Canada,

EAR TAGS | RECORD KEEPING

‘Stolen’ heifers were never gone

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

A case of lost and found has left one Alberta rancher red faced.

L a s t m o n t h , 5 9 h e i f e r s w e re reported missing from the Allan Hobbs ranch near Czar. A thorough check of records and cross referencing of electronic ear tags discovered the cattle numbers were entered incorrectly, said cpl. Dave Heaslip of the RCMP’s livestock investigations unit.

The cattle were entered as heifers when they were actually steers bought earlier in the year.

The owner said he did several head counts and searched but could not find the cattle.

The error was discovered following an investigation that included a cross check of the Canadian Cattle Identification Agency numbers and ear tags.

Heaslip said all’s well that ends well because the situation raised awareness among producers to continue branding their cattle and maintaining good records.

“It increased awareness about what could happen,” he said.

“A lot of people have a brand, but they never get to it.”

The meat sector is critical of restrictions on the number of foreign workers a company can hire, saying Canadians do not want to work at slaughter plants. | FILE PHOTO such as the Maple Leaf hog processing plant in Brandon.

The unemployment rate in Brandon is less than four percent, he said.

“There’s no way we can staff (the plant) based on local hiring,” he said.

“It’s not going to get easier. The demographic trends are going to be a continual challenge.”

McAlpine said federal immigration policies are biased in favour of highskilled professionals, and the federal

government doesn’t recognize the value of lower skilled immigrants.

“There’s a lot of difficult work to be done in difficult locations,” he said.

“We would say our country was built on the strength of all kinds of individuals…. Lower skilled workers become a tremendous asset in a community like Brandon. Their kids are now thriving.”

Davidson said leaders of Canada’s meat processing industry have asked

for a meeting with Kenney to clarify details and discuss the implications of the changes.

McAlpine wants agriculture minister Gerry Ritz to participate in the meeting.

“We’re hoping minister Ritz can be involved,” he said.

“Obviously he understands very well the consequences of affecting plants, in terms of the livestock industry.”

CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE | EDUCATION

Old school tillage practices persist No-till farming | In some regions, fertilizers and inputs are masking damaged soils

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

The surge of acres farmed with notill and conservation agriculture has been dramatic, but the story isn’t as rosy as it may seem.

Constant tillage is still the norm in large parts of the world and the threat to soil is more extreme than ever, those attending the World Congress on Conservation Agriculture were told last week.

“It’s really not taking off in Minnesota,” Jodi DeJong-Hughes of the University of Minnesota said about farmer adoption of strip-till and other reduced tillage practices.

Farmers, agronomists, government agriculture department officials and agriculture company representatives from around the world echoed the sentiment: farmers in some areas have embraced no-till and reduced tillage, but in many regions that’s not the case.

Soil and soil fertility are being lost in areas where conservation agriculture is not practised.

The congress, a once-every-three-

They came from developing nations such as Bangladesh, from long-established and traditional farming nations such as France, from more recently developed farming powerhouses such as the United States, Canada, Australia and Argentina, and from new superpowers with millions of acres still going into production, such as Brazil.

A common theme emerged: conservation agriculture thrives where technology, knowledge and information sources, policy and money allow it to be customized for specific regions. Adoption is poor if any of

Its adoption is also weak if farmers don’t think they have a problem with soil degradation. That might be why it thrives where farmers grow crops in challenging areas such as dry Canada and parched western Australia, but is less practised in places such as the U.S. Midwest and Europe.

David Montgomery, the geologist who wrote the influential book of the history of soil degradation, Dirt, focused on the break between the short-term lives and careers of humans and the long-term loss of agricultural soil. Farmers and societ-

ies often don’t notice the steady erosion of soil from farmers’ fields, or assume little bits don’t matter.

However, he said losses of one millimetre of topsoil per year lead to land becoming worthless for agriculture. Losses can be as high as 100 percent in areas with thin soil, leaving little but rock.

He said those types of losses are happening around the world and cannot continue for long before the planet’s ability to provide food for its burgeoning population is crippled.

Montgomery said the problem goes unnoticed because modern fertilizers and inputs allow poor soil to yield good results.

He said he thinks affordable fertilizer and other modern inputs will eventually disappear and create a crisis for the world’s soil.

Some areas face difficulties convincing farmers to embrace conservation agriculture or have government policies that discourage farmers from it.

Others regions can’t find the unique combination of technology, policy and expertise to make it take root.

Examples of successes were also celebrated at the congress.

impact of cold and wet seeding conditions on maturity.

Why don’t farmers with some of the most productive farmland in the world embrace conservation agriculture?

That theme echoed throughout the World Congress on Conservation Agriculture, held in Winnipeg June 22-25.

A complex mix of factors, including inherent farmer conservatism, anxiety over unproven production methods and complacency, seem to explain why soil protection measures that seem obvious to farmers in difficult areas aren’t top-of-mind for those in areas under less stress.

No-till is widespread in environmentally challenging regions such as Western Canada and western Australia but is rare in large swaths of the U.S. Midwest, California and Western Europe. Often, even basic conservation techniques aren’t used.

Bangladesh’s small farmers are embracing no-till by using small, two-wheeled, hand-guided tractors.

Advisers from Australia are experimenting with transferring no-till principles to the five acre plots of Bangladesh.

They have found that all the principles apply, but the approach has to be customized.

In Brazil, approaches to conservation agriculture vary, depending on the local farming population.

Small and medium sized farmers in the south have been quick to take up conservation farming, as have the large commercial farms in the new inland farming zones, such as Mato Grosso.

However, only a few of the small, poor farmers in the northeast have adopted them.

“They are not using anything, not even lime,” said Deivison Santos of Brazil’s influential Embrapa extension agriculture organization.

Tillage sometimes needed in no-till operations Soil management | Extreme situations can require tillage, says Australian farmer and no-till advocate Bill Crabtree

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Pragmatism should trump dogma when it comes to conservation tillage, says Australian farmer Bill Crabtree, better known as No-Till Bill.

There are scientists and farmers within the zero tillage movement who argue that fields should never be plowed, cultivated or disturbed, but Crabtree isn’t part of that camp.

“When do you cultivate when you’re a no-till farmer? When you have to. Be pragmatic,” said Crabtree,

who attended the World Congress on Conservation Agriculture in Winnipeg June 22-25.

“A no-till organization is not a religious, fanatical, 10 commandments organization.”

Crabtree, an agricultural consultant, farmer and no-till advocate, said there are several scenarios where cultivation is necessary in notill systems. One example is from Western Australia, where many farmers have subsoil acidity.

“The pH and calcium chloride might be 3.9 at 20 to 30 centimetres, as it is on

my farm…. I haven’t yet plowed, but I know I’m going to have to,” he said.

“Another example is where we have wheel ruts from a wet year. There’s no way to fill them in except with tillage.”

No-till proponents have suggested that even one pass with a cultivator could threaten soil microbiology and endanger soil health benefits associated with zero tillage, thus undoing 10 or 20 years of soil improvements.

Crabtree said such arguments are extreme.

“That idea is a bit strong,” he said.

“If our soil was a two out of 10 when

Results approach can satisfy consumers Consumer demand | Production practices under less scrutiny than their outcomes

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

The consumer, supposedly, is always right.

As a result, if consumers want farmers to grow crops with less fertilizer, fewer pesticides and less water, producers must satisfy those demands.

In other words, farmers have to adopt practices that consumers believe are sustainable and acceptable.

Rene Van Acker, a University of Guelph plant scientist, said such logic is incorrect because consumers don’t care about agricultural practices.

“It’s not practices that the consumer is interested in, it is in fact outcomes,” Van Acker said during a coffee break at the World Congress on Conservation Agriculture, held June 22 to 25 in Winnipeg.

Using neonicotinoids as an example, Van Acker said most people aren’t outraged because farmers plant seeds coated with an insecticide.

The public is more interested in the impact of those pesticides.

“The consumer is worried about the fate of bees and pollinators,” Van Acker said. “That’s an outcome.”

Lee Moats, a farmer from Riceton, Sask., said he shudders at the idea of consumers telling producers how to grow crops.

Moats, who participated in a panel discussion on the food value chain and sustainable sourcing, said there is a more sensible alternative.

If the public wants a certain environmental outcome from agriculture, such as fewer greenhouse gas emissions, then farmers can figure out how to achieve that goal, said Moats, vice-chair of Saskatchewan Pulse Growers Association.

Van Acker agreed, saying it’s essen-

“If these trends continue, conservation agriculture is not going to be better five years from now.”

The same phenomenon can be seen in parts of Minnesota, where high productivity doesn’t create a feeling of crisis.

Farmers can make lots of money

Industry groups should give producers targets and let them decide how to get there, says Rod Snyder of Field to Market. | ROBERT ARNASON PHOTO tial to measure outcomes because farmers need to prove they are delivering results.

“Farmers have to be careful not to just greenwash … and say we’re doing these practices, so it’s all good.

That’s not good enough,” he said.

“Mr. Moats ... he was bang on. Tell me what you want to achieve and we will achieve it. That’s a contract with consumers.”

Rod Snyder, president of Field to Market, the Alliance for Sustainable Agriculture, said his organization is also focused on results.

“Field to Market and its members are not dictating practices (to farmers),” he said.

“It’s all designed to be outcomes based. A farmer takes (his) own practices and decisions … to figure out a plan for continuous improvement.”

Field to Market is an American con-

sortium of producer groups and end users such as McDonald’s, General Mills, Unilever and Kellogg’s.

Nick Betts, market development and sustainability specialist with Grain Farmers of Ontario, said it’s tricky to balance consumer demands and producer independence.

A farmer’s idea of sustainability may not mesh well with consumer expectations.

“If we do something to satisfy a farmer’s definition of sustainability, we’re not going to do the same for the consumer,” Betts said.

Corporations that deal directly with consumers may want Canadian farmers to adhere to certain practices in a check-the-box approach.

However, Betts said agrologists, and not retailers, should help farmers identify best management practices.

fast by aggressively growing corn, and there’s little history of covercropping or no-tilling.

“The adoption rate is still very, very low,” said University of Minnesota conservation agriculture extension agronomist Jodi DeJong-Hughes.

Farmers who aren’t facing production declines are likely to stick with what has seemed to work, regardless of rational arguments

about soil degradation.

“These farmers have had generations telling them that they need to till, and it’s their fathers and grandfathers and people they respect,” said DeJong-Hughes.

Without obvious visual soil erosion, farmers aren’t likely to radically transform their production practices, regardless of her urging.

“There’s always an excuse.”

we started no-till and we’ve now got it up to eight, I think if you do one tillage you’re dropping it back to a six.”

Yash Dang, senior soil scientist for the Queensland science department, has investigated the impact of tillage on soil microbiology, soil organic carbon, water retention, fertility, yield and weed population.

He and his colleagues cultivated five long-term no-till fields in Australia’s northern grain region in 2012.

Dang said tillage affected the soil in several ways: • reduced water retention

• slight impact on soil microbiology • minimal improvement in grain yield • slight decrease on soil organic carbon • improved control of weed populations • improved mobilization of phosphorus in the subsoil He said there are several reasons why zero-till farmers may need to use tillage, including herbicide resistant weeds, an increase in stubble borne diseases and nutrient stratification in the top layer of soil.

Sage grouse policy stirs public debate

BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE

Opposition rising | Industry representatives feel protection order will impede development

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

MEDICINE HAT, Alta. — Residents of southeastern Alberta and southwestern Saskatchewan fear an emergency protection order to protect sage grouse is only the beginning of conservation groups’ efforts to shut down development.

About 160 people attended a meeting here June 26 to hear speakers discuss the rising influence of conservation and environmental protection groups.

Their efforts have affected economic activity in Canada and the United States and resulted in unwieldy and unworkable regulations that stymie development, subdivision and progress, the speakers said.

Three petitions at the meeting called for revoking and rewriting the Species At Risk Act (SARA), the sage grouse emergency protection order (EPO) and a subsequent amended strategy for sage grouse in Canada.

The federal government’s emergency protection order, which went into effect in February, affects 1,700 sq. kilometres and puts restrictions on public land where fewer than 100 sage grouse now nest at the northern edge of their range.

It is the first time the government has issued an EPO to protect an endangered species and was widely thought to be prompted by a court case launched by several environmental groups.

“I think what we want is, put this thing on hold temporarily,” said Western Stock Growers Association president Aaron Brower, who lives in the region affected by the EPO. “We all want to see the birds and we all want to see the plants and all that.

That’s not what it’s about. We need to stop and take a step back and put a little common sense into it. OK, maybe there’s some measures that need to be a little bit more firm, but not so radical.”

Kevin Redden, manager with the City of Medicine Hat’s energy division, said after the meeting that the EPO may cost the city $40 to $50 million in lost revenue because the city can’t develop oil and gas on its hold-

ings in the affected area. Reclamation work on other wells is also affected.

“We have access to our existing (oil and gas operations.) We’re able to undertake our operations, but our future development potential is gone,” said Redden.

“Our reclamation has to be done under permit now. We haven’t tested the SARA permit process, so we don’t know what’s going to happen, but the EPO prevents us from killing or moving native vegetation.”

Redden said the city has participated in efforts to retain sage grouse populations and protect their habitat, including assistance in translocating birds from Montana to Alberta.

Ranchers Keith and Wanda Reesor talked about the lack of consultation with area residents before the EPO was issued, as well as its onerous and potentially unnecessary requirements for pointed fence posts, lower fences with smooth top wires and noise restrictions.

The sage grouse situation has led to the formation of Sustainable Canada, which calls itself a common sense conservation group and has the stated mission to “advocate economic, social and environmental sustainability to maintain, harvest and protect our resources, thus preserving our heritage for present and future generations of Canada.”

Elizabeth Nickson, journalist and author of Eco-Fascists: How Radical Conservationists Are Destroying Our Natural Heritage, said Canadians are experiencing “a gentle disallowing” of development and rural activity that drives people to cities.

She said land trusts like those undertaken by the Nature Conservancy of Canada are steadily increasing. The accompanying reductions on economic activity and food production are “ a major drag on our economy.”

Medicine Hat MP LaVar Payne said he and Cypress Hills-Grasslands MP David Anderson have talked to the federal environment minister about EPO concerns.

He said it would be best to change SARA, but that was unlikely. But they are working with Ottawa to mitigate the impacts.

Officials warn about hantavirus in wake of death Sask. woman dies from syndrome linked with exposure to deer mice

The death of a Saskatchewan resident from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome last month has prompted health officials to remind people to take precautions.

Citing privacy concerns, officials w o u l d s ay o n l y t hat t h e d e at h occurred in an adult in southern Saskatchewan in June.

However, the Western Producer has learned the fatality occurred in a female from southeastern Saskatchewan.

Hantavirus is contracted by inhaling contaminants from the droppings, urine and saliva of infected deer mice, which can be found throughout the province. Symptoms

include fever, muscle aches, coughing and shortness of breath within one to six weeks of exposure.

Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome is rare but can be deadly.

“The risk of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome is the rapid deterioration,” said Dr. Denise Werker, the province’s deputy chief medical health officer.

After experiencing flu-like symptoms, those with the more serious form of the virus will experience severe breathing complications.

“If people go into their cabins that have been closed for the winter, and there have been mice in those cabins, and they open the doors or they start cleaning up and generate dust, then they could actually inhale the virus and become very sick.”

camping, cleaning RVs or boats, moving woodpiles or cleaning outbuildings should take precautions.

Buildings should be ventilated for at least 30 minutes before cleaning.

People should wear gloves and use wet mopping to clean rather than dusting, sweeping or vacuuming.

Mouse droppings should be dampened with bleach disinfectant and removed with a damp cloth.

Werker said wearing a filter mask is also a good idea.

Twenty-seven cases of hantavirus have been reported in the past 20 years, including nine deaths.

Werker said one-third of the cases were women and two-thirds were men. Men aren’t predisposed to the virus but are more likely to be exposed, she said.

FOOD COSTS | FARMERS’ SHARE

Farm returns, food spending: is farmers’ share declining?

Food chain distribution | Farm share value on a product declines as more after-farm processing and packaging takes place

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

The debate over how much a farmer receives from retail food sales stretches back decades.

A recent study by a University of Guelph graduate student found that farmers receive 17 cents for every dollar spent.

With help from Statistics Canada, Agriculture Canada and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Jessica Kelly’s master’s thesis looked at the farm share of the food dollar in Canada from 1997 to 2010. The study covered commodity prices, value adding and inputs.

The farm share is the average portion from each dollar spent on food that is received by farmers for their agricultural commodities. It does not include weather or political events that might affect prices.

For example, the price of meat is still high even when pork or beef markets collapse, which Kelly said is a topic for future study.

“It is a comparison of how much people spend on food and how much did farmers get for that food,” she said.

“We didn’t attempt to tie the changes in the farm share to the specific events,” she said.

The concept of farmers’ share of the food dollar originated with the USDA’s Economic Research Service. Besides calculating what the farmer receives, it also includes the marketing margin, which shows where the rest of the money goes when products are sold beyond the farmgate.

A recently released survey from the research service found the farmer share to be 17.4 cents and the marketing share to be 82. 6 cents, which is similar to what has been found in Canada.

“The farm share is commonly used in the U.S. and is one of the most misused statistics out there with this idea if the farm share is going down, then the farmer is being cheated. That isn’t necessarily the case. The consumers are demanding products that have more value adding to them: salad in a bag versus a head of lettuce,” said Kelly, who used this information for her master’s thesis.

“The problem with the farm share is it makes it appear as if people in the food supply chain are competitors for some fixed amount of value instead of partners to build a bigger pie to be shared.”

Input-output data is a complicated formula, but the results showed the overall farm share for food decreased from 19 percent to 17 percent between 1997 and 2010.

The farm share for food purchased away from home was even less. The more the food is processed and packaged, the smaller the farmer’s share.

Consider the price of a head of lettuce and the final retail product that

is sold as a package of pre-made salad: the farmer receives less from the salad than from the single product.

“You would expect a weaker connection between those prices when there is a lot more service added to it beyond the farm.”

Kelly speculated that the farmer’s share will continue to decline as more convenience food is offered.

Rather than looking at the price of items in a grocery basket, the overall farm share provides a snapshot of how money is distributed along the value chain.

“I was trying to emphasize, one, what the farm share could tell us, but number two, and equally important, what the farm share can’t tell us,” she said.

“The farm share can’t tell us what is fair or what is equitable.”

Kelly’s study did not break down prices into a specific grocery basket of products, but past researchers have found that dairy products have the highest farm share, grain products have the lowest and vegetables and meat fall in between.

For example, eggs consistently have the highest farm share value because there is minimal post-farmgate processing.

Pork is another example.

Kelly’s research found a potential farm share of 30 percent, but it doesn’t mean hog farmers received 30 percent of all food products containing pork. It means they received 30 percent of consumer expenditures on fresh, chilled or frozen pork.

Other food products, such as prepared meals and soups, could include 78 pork products. The farm shares for these more processed food products would include the value received by many different types of farms.

The information was difficult to track, but all past research has showed a declining farmer share of the food dollar.

Other academics and Keystone Agriculture Producers in Manitoba have done work in the past, but no sustained effort has been made to monitor this information.

Conservative MP Ralph Ferguson attempted to show the relationship between farm returns and food spending in 1991 in a report called Compare the Share.

He concluded that low and declining farm share values were unsustainable, and farmers were being

DISPOSABLE INCOME SPENT ON FOOD Jessica Kelly, a graduate student from the University of Guelph, Ont., has also examined what Canadians pay for food compared to other countries, which is based on a percentage of disposal income as opposed to actual dollars spent.

Canadians: 15 percent United States: 16 percent Australia: 17.3 percent United Kingdom: 19 percent France: 24 percent China: 41 percent unfairly shortchanged.

Kelly argues that a downward trend is not inherently negative for agricultural producers because it is simply a proportional breakdown of an unfixed value: farm revenues could be rising but not as fast as food expenditures.

A recent U.S. survey found the farmers share of a food dollar to be 17.4 cents, which is similar to Canadian statistics. | FILE PHOTO

Fit exercise into daily living Exercise and farming | Farmers need more than chores to stay fit on the farm

Eating plan focuses on prairie food

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH

BY REBECA KUROPATWA

CALGARY BUREAU

FREELANCE WRITER

Many farmers know they should exercise more, but it is easier to sit in the local coffee shop for an hour than it is to exercise, said a Manitoba grain farmer.

“Farmers have always believed the work they do is enough exercise,” said Terry Betcher, 50, of Swan River.

“However, that has changed, especially for the grain farmer. Attitudes about it haven’t though.”

Whether or not farming will give you enough exercise depends on what type of farm you have, said Betcher.

“Livestock operations still do a lot of manual work, so these farmers might get plenty of exercise,” he said.

“Grain farmers, on the other hand, get less exercise than they used to.”

Many farmers are in good physical condition, but, like the rest of society, there are some who can use a little more exercise.

“Lifting heavy tools and jumping from tractor to tractor certainly isn’t enough,” said Betcher.

Roland Reenders, vegetable farmer and co-ordinator for SAFE Work Manitoba, said many farmers don’t get enough targeted exercise to benefit fully from it.

“Specific exercise to provide a training effect will strengthen the heart and circulatory system, and also provide a host of other physiological benefits,” he said.

Reenders said farmers can benefit from other exercises, such as core exercises that strengthen the abdominal region of the spine and can

EDMONTON — A Mediterranean diet with a dash of savoury prairie flavour is the theme of a new cookbook.

Originally created as a dietary guideline for diabetics that used locally available ingredients, the Pure Prairie Eating Plan was created by nutritionists at the University of Alberta.

“The Mediterranean diet is a dietary pattern, the way people eat. It is not a diet in the clinical sense for losing weight,” said the university’s Cathy Chan.

Current data suggests 70 percent of Albertans are overweight or obese, putting them at risk of becoming diabetic. Research suggests this type of diet could help people avoid chronic disease later.

“There is a growing body of research that people who subscribe to the Mediterranean diet have a reduced risk of chronic disease,” Chan said at the Alberta Livestock and Meat

“Jumping off equipment will work the legs, but it should be avoided as it can lead to twisted ankles, knees, etc.,” said Reenders.

“A safer way to dismount is to maintain three points of contact, which will still engage the legs.

“If you want to get your heart rate up to a training level, depending on

your age and current fitness level, you may need to do some swift walking or light jogging ... but your heart doesn’t need to be racing.”

Betcher said a brisk walk or run, bike ride, swim or cross-country ski would work well because they elevate the heart rate to a constant level for the duration of the exercise.

“Exercise whenever you can fit it in.

As farmers, we have the best gym in

the world right outside our doors.

“If you’re shutting down at seeding time, because of rain, go for an hour run then meet up with your neighbours.… If you want to do something, you’ll find a way. If you don’t, you’ll find an excuse.”

Reenders added a word of caution.

For those with health conditions, consult a health care professional before starting an exercise program.

Local food list links Sask. consumers, producers

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

SaskFoodFind.com aims to connect consumers with producers of locally grown food.

The website, launched at Canada’s Farm Progress Show in June, is a creation of Simply Agriculture Solutions Inc. Executive director Tamara WeirShields said the idea is to act as a hub where producers can register as suppliers.

The only requirement is that the food is produced in Saskatchewan.

“It’s not limited to organic,” WeirShields said. “It can be CSA (community supported agriculture) or someone who realizes in September they have 300 extra pounds of potatoes.”

Until Sept. 1, it’s free for producers

to list on the site. After that there is a fee, depending on how long the seller wants to sign up. It will range from one month at $50 to one year at $360.

“We recognize that not everyone needs a full-year subscription,” she said.

Smaller producers might not have the resources to put into marketing but are putting a lot of effort into growing produce or making food products that contain the local food consumers want.

Weir-Shields said there have been other attempts to create local food lists, but often they use government program funding and when the program ends, there is no one to update the site.

“It’s a pretty simple concept,” she said. “We hope it catches on.”

The prairie diet is a four week eating plan with three meals and three snacks daily that follows Canada’s Food Guide with a reliance on prairie foods. A nutrient breakdown for each recipe and meal plan is provided.

“We hope the ingredients are easy to find in your local grocery store throughout Alberta,” she said.

There are also tips to adjust the menu to increase or decrease caloric intake, with the diet allowing for 2,000 calories daily.

Grocery lists are also provided to help people with meal planning.

The plan has been tested on people with Type 2 diabetes.

Some lost about two kilograms of weight but for most, the greater benefit was improved blood pressure, decreased sodium intake and better blood glucose levels.

“These people were getting better three months after following our menu plan,” Chan said.

Dishes as American as grits and corn salad

Pill regime not followed

TEAM RESOURCES HEALTH CLINIC

SARAH GALVIN, BSHEc CLARE ROWSON, MD

I

spent five months housesitting in Tennessee a few years back and grew to love food. I learned to cook with collard greens and okra and attended more than a few church potlucks. This is the American Independence Day weekend so I am featuring southern favourites, comfort food at its best.

Shoepeg corn salad: The term, shoepeg corn dates back to before the American Civil War and is derived from a shoemaking term used during the 1800s.

The kernels resemble the wooden pegs used to attach soles to the upper part of shoes. The corn is characterized by small, narrow kernels tightly and unevenly packed on the cob.

This corn has a sweet, mild flavour.

Shoepeg corn is a common ingredient throughout the southern United States, but is relatively unknown in other areas of the country. It is most often canned.

This salad tastes like a fresh, crisp relish and keeps well for a few days in the refrigerator. Substitute with sweet baby corn.

SHOEPEG CORN SALAD 2 11 oz. cans shoepeg or 620 mL sweet baby corn 1 8 oz. can French style 250 mL green beans peas 1 c. chopped celery 250 mL 1 c. chopped onion 250 mL 1/2 small jar pimientos 1/2 c. sugar 125 mL 3/4 c. vinegar 185 mL 1/4 c. salad oil 60 mL Drain vegetables and discard liquid. Heat sugar, vinegar and salad oil until sugar is dissolved. Cool and pour over vegetables. Cover and refrigerate until served.

Shrimp and cheese grits: Grits truly are American. They are made from dried yellow or white corn that is ground and then boiled. They can be purchased in long cooking or quick cooking varieties.

This dish was considered a basic fisherman’s breakfast during shrimp season but now is served as a side dish or the main course. Polenta or cornmeal can be substituted for grits.

Doctors describe the problem of not taking medication as prescribed “non-compliance.” This may lead to an unfortunate “black mark” on the medical records, which might be hard to shake off.

An estimated 50 percent of patients fall into this category.

Teenagers are the least compliant group because they tend to see themselves as invincible. The problem increases with the number of illnesses the patient has and quantity of medications needed to be taken.

Your husband may need as many as five types of pills and may have to take them several times a day. On top of this, he may have been advised to cut his salt and sugar intake and to exercise regularly. Then there are the doctors’ appointments and laboratory visits for blood tests on his blood sugar and cholesterol levels.

The day before the blood tests, your husband is also supposed to fast from 8 p.m. and not eat until after the test the next morning. No wonder he is sometimes “non-compliant.” Doctors need to put themselves in the patient’s shoes and consider how they would behave under the same circumstances.

A recent study in Sweden of 749 people with chronic diseases tried to determine if personality had anything to do with this problem.

Participants were asked to fill in a questionnaire about their pill-taking habits as a way of looking for personality traits such as neuroticism, extroversion, openness to experiences, agreeableness and conscientiousness.

Not surprisingly, the conscientious types were the most likely to take medications as prescribed. On the other hand, if the patient scored high in neuroticism, they were likely to be more anxious about side-effects, which had a negative impact on pill taking. A higher agreeableness score indicated a willingness to go along with instructions simply to please the doctor.

Determine if your husband fits into one of these categories. Perhaps he is anxious and concerned about the long-term effects of the drugs. It may help to put the pills for a week at a time in a pill dispenser.

The doctor may also need to “sell” the necessity of treatment to the patient as well as take time to listen to concerns. People who trust their doctors are more likely to be compliant and that starts with dialogue.

PLANT BREEDING | IMPROVED VARIETIES

New varieties stem from hardy native flowers IN THE COUNTRY GARDEN

ALBERT PARSONS

M

any farm families lead busy lives and have little time to garden and no patience with plants that need to be coddled.

They want hardy, dependable plants that can survive without an onerous maintenance regimen.

Take a walk in a meadow or along roadside ditches and make a list of the native plants that are flowering among the grasses and native plants.

These hardy native flowering plants are adapted to our environment.

Observe the different bloom times, which you might note in order to achieve a succession of blooms in your own garden.

A spring stroll will reveal delicate Solomon seal plants blooming in shady spots as well as anemones and several campanulas (bellflowers).

Earlier on, the native crocus blooms atop hillsides.

In early summer, columbines and gaillardia are in full bloom. The latter are often found growing in the gravel shoulders of country roads.

The flowers of filipendula and achillea (yarrow) make an appearance soon after that and by mid-summer, the iconic tiger lily will show its orange plumage along with the purple liatrus and coneflowers.

As autumn approaches, there are several varieties of goldenrod coming into bloom one by one, while the yellow heliopsis (false sunflower) will add more golden colour to the ditches.

Plant breeders have developed new

Hybrid lilies are more exotic looking than the prairie tiger lily. varieties of these dependable plants, minimizing their negative characteristics and maximizing positive traits.

For example, the dirty white blooms of the native achillea (yarrow) have given way to red, pink, and bright gold flowers of new varieties.

The leggy and rather nondescript heliopsis has been bred to produce cultivars such as H. Lorraine Sunshine that forms wonderful clumps of variegated foliage and uniform daisy-like blooms over a period of months.

The small red and yellow native columbines have morphed into plants that produce large flowers that come in colours, including dark purple, bright pink and pure yellow. The spurs are usually a contrasting colour to the petals, creating wonderful displays in the garden.

For Sun • Achillea • Echinacea • Filipendula • Gaillardia • Heliopsis • Monarda • Liatrus • Rudbeckia • Columbine • Campanula • Lily • Golden rod

For Shade: • Fern • Lily of the valley • Solomon’s seal • Pulmonaria • Jacob’s ladder • Goat’s beard • Anenome

Hybrid gaillardias and heliopsis are compact plants in contrast to their native cousins, which are rather rangy.

Perennials that originate from local native plants have the hardiness and versatility of their native parents while other characteristics have been altered to make them suitable for domestic cultivation.

son we want to continue.

However, we need some help if we are to build a marriage that can be rewarding for us. What do you suggest we do?

A: JACKLIN ANDREWS, BA, MSW

Take time to share your feelings and plans with spouse to build relationship

Q:

My girlfriend and I have decided to get married next spring.

This is scary. Neither of us come from homes where marital bliss ruled the household.

Both of my parents have been married and divorced a number of times and my girlfriend’s mom and dad sought refuge behind violence to end their marriage.

All we have learned from our parents is how to say and do things that hurt another person. This is not a les-

Thank you for recognizing that both you and your girlfriend are going to need help of some kind to make your proposed marriage work.

Unfortunately, we do not have magic answers to help you with your problem. The relationship that the two of you develop will be uniquely yours. The parameters and guidelines the two of you set work only if both of you believe in them and sense that you have been a part of the decision-making process developing them.

All households have moments of stress. The danger that you and your girlfriend have is that both of you could fall victim to your parents’ pathologies when your house tumbles into difficult times.

Your parents taught you to run and hide from stress, while your girl-

friend’s parents taught her to fight back. Neither is a particularly useful way for resolving difficulties.

My suggestion is that at least a couple of times a week you and your girlfriend turn off the television, the computer, tablets, cellphones, stereo and anything else that distracts you from each other.

Sit on your couch, hold hands and say nothing until both of you have settled into some kind of peace within yourselves.

When both of you are reasonably relaxed, you can share with each other your fears and concerns, your hopes and dreams and who knows whatever disappointments have challenged you along the way.

This is the foundation of your relationship with each other, and it is one from which both of you may find opportunities to learn new and better ways for dealing with your normal and natural stresses than your parents did.

LES KERR, DOMINION FOREST NURSERY STATION SUPERINTENDENT, 1942-66

LOOKING BACK | TREE NURSERY

Station changed prairie landscape New book chronicles site’s threefold purpose

BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The Dominion Forest Nursery Station began in 1913 on a stubble field in Sutherland, Sask., without a single tree in sight.

Its purpose mirrored that of a similar nursery at Indian Head to the south in supplying burgeoning numbers of prairie farms with free shelter belt trees to block the merciless winds from blowing soil away. The station shipped more than 147 million trees from 1913 to 1965.

Its rich history and importance to the farm community are chronicled in a new book, Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park and Zoo, A Photographic History, commissioned by Friends of the Forestry Farm House for the park’s 100th year.

Sara Williams, author and researcher, said the station’s work was threefold: tree production and distribution, research and extension.

“It made an enormous tangible difference in the lives of farmers on the Prairies,” she said.

“The Prairies were totally barren.”

Williams said the book’s narrative evolved by finding the stories behind the photographs, which ranged from Eaton’s Department Store staff picnics, innovative tree planting apparatus and tree bundles at the Sutherland rail yards waiting to be shipped to farms across Manitoba and Saskatchewan.

“It took 19 refrigerated train cars to distribute them every spring,” she said.

The nursery station drew its labour force from a booming Sutherland,

Farm Boys and Girls camps included visits to the station for tours and horticultural lectures. | whose streetcar line between Saskatoon and the town and its rail station made the area a good choice for the farm.

Williams cited one story of Russian immigrant women who were delivered to the site by horse and lumber wagon to lift and bundle trees in the fall. Unable to read and write, they had to sign their pay-

stubs with an X, she said.

The nursery station also served as a model farmyard and site for horticultural research. It also grew oats to feed the horses used until the 1940s.

Williams called James McLean, the first superintendent, hard working, imaginative and progressive.

He maintained that for every tree, there was an insect and/or disease

UNIVERSITY OF SASKATCHEWAN ARCHIVES PHOTO

problem just two or three years behind that nature would eventually balance out.

“A decided effort to introduce parasites would be the most far reaching remedy to controlling the increase of insect pests,” McLean wrote.

“Insecticides are indispensible when insects are first noticed after being introduced, but to rely on their

use as a permanent means of control is only to defeat our own purpose in the end.”

The land that Maclean oversaw from 1914-42 is now owned by the City of Saskatoon and used as a public park and zoo.

ON THE FARM | 98 RANCH

Couple likes low overhead, low risk approach Grassroots approach | Management decisions are made with pastures in mind, allowing bale grazing for most of the year

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

LAKE ALMA, Sask. — Ross Macdonald grew up the son of two lawyers at Radville, Sask.

But he didn’t get the legal genes because blue jeans are more his style.

“Their friends, their clients were generally agricultural producers,” Macdonald said.

“And my dad instilled in me an appreciation for grass and native grass specifically.”

He recalls going to the Circle Y in the Big Muddy, where he learned to ride and rope as part of a saddle club.

“Those were the guys who were role models to me in a lot of ways,” he said.

Macdonald studied animal science at the University of Saskatchewan and in 1998 left Canada to obtain a masters in animal and range science at Montana State University.

“That’s the year I decided my path and I don’t ever regret it,” he said.

He is sitting at the kitchen table of 98 Ranch Inc., about a half-hour’s drive from where he grew up.

The rolling landscape he, his wife, Christine Peters, and their two-yearold daughter, Mesa, call home is named for that pivotal year.

He considered a job at a university ranch in New Mexico but soon discovered a Canadian wasn’t likely to get the job so he returned home.

“I was looking for something and trying to figure my life out,” he said.

Macdonald initially worked with the Saskatchewan Wetlands Conservation Corp. before moving to the Lake Alma property in 2002.

“This place had a great yard and a really functional setup,” he said. “The design was to service the debt with cattle and have other income to keep everything else going on.”

Peters, who grew up in Alberta and then Abbotsford, B.C., where her family raised hogs and broilers and boarded horses, studied agriculture at Olds College and Lethbridge.

She met Macdonald at Canadian Western Agribition in 2003, while helping a friend show cattle.

In spring 2005, she moved east and took a job at the Lake Alma elevator.

More recently, she has worked as an appraisal agrologist with Saskatchewan Assessment Management Agency in Weyburn.

Macdonald has always worked off the ranch, including for the former Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration. He is currently working on contract with the Canadian Cattle Identification Agency.

The off-farm income the couple earns is key to the ranch operation.

Macdonald and Peters agree on using their grass efficiently and at minimal risk.

“When I first got here I had two horses, a dog and my truck,” Macdonald said.

They now have a land base of two sections at home and three sections near Goodwater, Sask. The latter borders a federal community pasture where they are sending some cows this grazing season.

The ranch began as a custom yearling operation, which grew as the land base grew. Then came BSE and Macdonald decided on a slow, low-

risk approach when buying cattle and building a herd.

The couple retains their calves and runs them as yearlings through the summer. The herd spends the winter at the home ranch.

The 98 Ranch commercial herd is Hereford and Angus based, with Macdonald currently evaluating a small purebred Hereford herd.

About 120 cows are calving this year, and they are running about 90 yearlings and 250 custom yearlings.

At one time, the custom cattle totalled nearly 600.

They have a dozen chickens laying eggs and 40 Targhee ewes close to the yard.

“The idea was to graze them,” said Peters. “But I like to keep them closer because of the coyotes.”

Macdonald said the management decisions are all made with the grass in mind, and they bought cows that would be efficient, able to graze through an extended season and calve in late spring.

“Once you calve at this time of year, you realize how crazy it is to calve at any other time,” he said.

Calves are weaned and usually sold in Weyburn, Sask. In the future, the couple hopes to be able to fill a liner lot and list online.

The cows are out on stockpiled native grass usually by mid-March.

Macdonald said they manage for 10 to 11 months of grazing but usually graze for about nine months. They bale graze in winter, with springs providing water year round.

The couple’s strategy is to run a low overhead operation. They haven’t invested a lot in infrastructure.

Peters said they don’t see how investing in more equipment and facilities to keep more cows through the winter makes financial sense.

For now, the couple can handle what they have and say they enjoy what they’re doing.

AXE | HUNTING IN THE WILD

Wetterlings Large Hunting Axe puts power behind handle OUTDOOR PURSUITS

KIM QUINTIN

T

he Wetterlings Large Hunting Axe is manufactured in Sweden. It has a 20 inch hickory wood handle and a six inch long carbon steel head with three inch wide blade and weighs 2.1 pounds.

This medium-sized axe is designed for hunters going on extended trips into the wild, providing excellent balance and chopping power for only a moderate amount of carry weight.

I was pleased to see after an initial inspection of the axe that the wood grain in the hickory handle was properly aligned and seated in the head with both a timber wedge and binding staple.

It is important to make sure the handle wood grain runs with the swinging action to ensure maximum tool strength.

A well-seated axe head with wedge and staple bolsters overall safety, which is of particular importance when in the wild and away from emergency medical services.

The handmade head was expertly crafted and had first-rate edge geom-

etry using carbon steel. A qualitymade small leather sheath safely covers the blade edge for when the tool is not in use.

The Wetterlings Large Hunting Axe is expensive compared to basic axes available at big box stores. It is probably not a sensible purchase for those who would use the tool only a few times a year.

However, the cost is definitely worth it for those who use an axe on a regular basis or are looking for a quality item for extended woodland trips.

I will always defer to professional lumberjacks because they have experience and knowledge in the axe craft that goes beyond my own.

However, I have spent a considerab l e am o u nt o f p e r s o na l t i m e becoming familiar with the theory and use of axes. There is a certain kind of joy one gets from recognizing and using a well-made tool.

The balance and power of this Wetterlings axe model makes it stand out compared to the more common tools I have found at traditional department store retailers.

For those who use an axe infrequently, it can be confusing as to which would suit their purposes.

When choosing a general purpose axe, grasp the head with the edge forward and tuck the handle under your arm. The tip of the handle should sit comfortably inside your armpit.

This is a great way to get started, but be aware that many specialized axes

The Wetterlings Large Hunting Axe has a handmade head with a quality carbon steel edge. | are available in the market that have features and requirements that extend beyond this basic sizing approach.

The smooth hickory handle felt good in the hands and provided superb leverage in the chopping action for its length.

The axe head design coupled with the curve of the handle made the

accuracy and action easy and natural.

The blade edge geometry and head design made for surprisingly easy cuts.

The Swedish carbon steel held its edge and sharpened well. Working with the axe felt natural and almost effortless.

The Wetterlings Large Hunting Axe costs around $110 but is a remark-

FUNGICIDE RESEARCH | APPLICATION

Fungicide pays only when under high disease pressure: research Can be detrimental | In durum, early applications cause kernel discolouration

BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

An Agriculture Canada scientist is urging cereal producers to think twice before making early applications of fungicides to control potential disease threats.

“We have concluded, and this agrees with work some other colleagues have done as well, that early fungicide applications are really a waste of money,” said Myriam Fernandez, a researcher at the federal Semiarid Prairie Agriculture Research Centre. “(They) don’t really help in terms of reducing leaf spots and fusarium head blight as well.”

He said early and double fungicide applications are not only often ineffective at controlling disease, but durum research also links their use to increased kernel discolouration and possible downgrading.

“The bottom line is that when you have early application of fungicide, sometimes even at flowering, you have an increase in blackpoint and red smudge,” she said.

“That’s not something that a lot of people want to hear, but that’s basically what the research is telling us.”

Researchers in Saskatchewan recommend against early, preventive fungicide applications as a strategy to improve yield performance, even when followed up with a second application at a later stage.

A study that used data from three site years found two fungicide applications increased red smudge to .85 percent, or 57 percent more than if no fungicides were applied.

No. 1 Canadian Western Amber Durum can contain no more than .3 percent red smudge.

Cost-benefit analysis of fungicides should include this possible downgrading effect, said the study.

In another study, researchers found that double applications were no more effective in controlling fusarium and often increased the kernel weight of durum.

“So that will make the plant, the kernels more susceptible to kernel diseases, kernel discolouration,” said Fernandez.

Applications at the flag leaf stage are recommended for cereal diseases such as leaf spot, but the product must be delivered to the crop before disease develops.

Cereal growers may be tempted to time a registered fungicide alongside

herbicide earlier in the season.

“The push from the companies are for an application at the seedling stage. We don’t see the point in doing that,” said Fernandez.

Faye Dokken Bouchard, a plant disease specialist with Saskatchewan’s agriculture ministry, said cereals should be sprayed early only in cases of high disease pressure. Provincial guidelines recommend spraying at flag leaf for leaf spot and flowering for fusarium.

“We don’t want to see spraying early unless there’s really a good, valid reason to do so,” she said.

Dokken Bouchard said early applications are important for controlling other diseases, such as ascochyta blight in chickpeas. Canola growers can spray for blackleg at the cabbage stage rather than at the flowering stage, which is when they would spray for sclerotinia.

“Just kind of weigh the pros and cons and see what disease you’re most concerned about spraying for. If sclerotinia has been your major issue in the past, then really wait until that 30 percent bloom stage in the canola,” she said.

“That’s going to get you the most bang for your buck.”

Recent research shows early fungicide applications are not economically beneficial and can even lead to downgrading of crop. | FILE PHOTO

BEEKEEPERS FIELD DAY | HEALTH RESEARCH

Study examines honeybee health Survey will look at hive samples from different regions to determine problem pests

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

BEAVERLODGE, Alta. —Bees may be tiny, but they can suffer from a lot of health problems.

A four-year national health survey plans to take a snapshot of the health of Canada’s honeybees “We hope to have a base line of disease, pests and parasites that are common in Canada,” said Carlos Castillo, manager of the Grande Prairie Regional College’s National Bee Diagnostic Centre.

Some provinces have conducted surveys over the years, but this will be the first national survey that is conducted with identical protocol.

“We want to create a national database of parasites,” said Castillo.

The goal is to sample .5 percent of the hives in Canada, or about 360,000 hives, to see what diseases are in each region and to determine what diseases Canada can say it doesn’t have.

Steve Pernal, a bee scientist with Agriculture Canada’s Beaverlodge Research Farm, said a wide range of diseases, parasites and pathogens could affect the health of honeybees.

“Keeping colonies alive is much more complicated than it used to be,” said Pernal.

“There are many, many more pests and diseases than before.”

The survey will be three parts: • A quarter cup of live bees will be taken from the centre frames of the hives and shipped to the laboratory in Beaverlodge.

• Another quarter cup will be i m m e r s e d i n a l c o h o l b e f o re they’re shipped to the lab.

• The technician sampling the bees will also take a “knock” test looking for tropilaelaps, a parasitic mite common in Asia and Indonesia that has the potential to devastate Canadian hives.

In the knock test, the brood frame is knocked front and back four times and the debris that falls out of the frame is collected, put in alcohol and shipped to the lab for inspection.

Castillo said the survey will focus on producers with 100 or more hives.

Samples will be taken from hives in Alberta and Manitoba for the next four years, and staff will begin taking samples from bees in British Columbia and Saskatchewan next year.

Samples will be taken from Ontario, Quebec and the Atlantic provinces in the last two years of the survey.

Castillo said researchers know there are differences in bee pests between regions, but this will give a clear picture of the differences.

The survey also hopes to identify the diseases that are not in Canada and can’t be used as a trade barrier.

Imported queen bees from New Zealand, California and Hawaii are on the rise, and Castillo wants to ensure Canadian producers are not importing diseases with the queens.

BEEKEEPERS FIELD DAY | HONEY

Sector faces challenge of cheap honey imports

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

BEAVERLODGE, Alta. — A long, cool spring has slowed honey production, but it hasn’t dampened enthusiasm for the honey business.

“Bees, like the field crops, started off a trifle slow, but it looks pretty good now and the moisture conditions are excellent,” said Grant Hicks, president of the Alberta Beekeepers Association.

Moisture to keep crops flowering means the chances of a good honey crop are strong, Hicks said during the Beekeepers Field Day. Marc Paradis said hive location is always key for bees.

Early flowering plants such as golden rod and caraganas give bees a good start before they move to canola and other flowering crops. This year, several clover fields near Rycroft, Alta., where Paradis normally places

CANADA IMPORTED

190,000 pounds OF HONEY FROM CHINA IN THE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF THIS YEAR his hives, were worked up and seeded to peas, which aren’t useful for honeybees.

Guy Chartier, chief executive officer of BeeMaid Honey, said the common message he has heard from prairie producers is that bees survived the winter well, but the long, cool spring has slowed production.

Honey prices near $1.90 a pound have generally left producers feeling happy, he added.

Stephen Pernal, a research scientist

with Agriculture Canada’s Beaverlodge Research Farm, said strong honey prices mean there is a strong potential for good returns during honey harvest.

“The industry is holding its own, but there are challenges,” he said before a day of lectures on the health of queen bees, neonicotinoid residues and bee health surveys.

ed 190,000 pounds from China in the first three months of this year, compared to 26,000 lb. for all of last year.

“It’s legally coming into Canada from China,” said Chartier.

He said producers need to be aware that there may be a point where consumers and industrial users may take a closer look at Chinese honey.

“At one point do people say, ‘there is a solution with China?’ ” he said of Canada’s higher priced honey.

Chinese honey meets the Canada No. 1 grade standards, but the grade doesn’t mean it must be produced in Canada. Consumers don’t know that Canada No. 1 is a grade and doesn’t mean it is produced in Canada, said Chartier.

To help consumers, BeeMaid has launched a Made in Canada honey campaign, “How much Canadian honey is in your bottle,” highlighting honey produced from Canadian beekeepers.

PLANT BREEDERS RIGHTS ACT | HEARINGS

Hearings on changes to Plant Breeders Rights Act set for fall

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A controversial government bill aimed at changing Canada’s Plant Breeders’ Rights Act has passed second reading in the House of Commons.

Bill C-18, the Agricultural Growth Act, has been referred to the House of Commons’ agriculture committee.

Witnesses to speak at the committee hearings will be identified over the next two to three months.

Committee clerk Jean Michel Roy

said hearings will not begin until fall.

“We won’t have any idea before the House returns in September.”

The federal government introduced the far-reaching bill last December.

The proposed amendments would grant plant breeders and seed companies greater control over intellectual property and give them more flexibility in collecting royalties on new seed products. Plant breeders generally support the proposed amendments. However, some farm groups view the bill as an infringe-

ment on farmer interests.

They say a revamped PBR Act and ratification of an international agreement known as UPOV-91 will limit farmers’ access to royalty-free seed and could potentially restrict their ability to clean and condition farm saved seed.

Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz had indicated that he would like to see the bill enacted before the beginning of the 2014-15 crop year, which commences Aug. 1. That deadline will not be met, but supporters of the proposed legislation say any prog-

ress on the bill is welcome.

“Amended plant breeders’ rights legislation will enhance the ability of Canadian producers to capitalize on exciting new opportunities in Canadian and international markets,” said Cereals Canada chair Greg Porozni. “ The amendments will foster investment and innovation in Canada by giving producers access to new, more productive crop varieties.”

Canadian Federation of Agriculture president Ron Bonnett also welcomed the news.

“We are pleased that the bill is now at the point in the process where we can engage in public discussion at committee,” Bonnett said in a news release.

“It boils down to making sure Canadian farmers are competitive and that we aren’t falling behind other countries. The legislation strikes a good balance between giving plant breeders the ability to receive a return on their investment and research efforts while preserving the ability of farmers to save, store and condition seed for their own use.”

Crop Cutter

. Always a cut above the rest . Increases bushels per acre and improves sample for better grade . Reduce build –up on ends of divider board resulting in precious time lost . Reduce piles in swath (beaver huts) resulting in less greens in sample and reduces possible heating in storage bins, which in turn reduces problems during harvest . High speed cutting action enhances blade life

CROP REPORT ALL CONDITIONS AS OF JUNE 23. VISIT WWW.PRODUCER.COM REGULARLY FOR UPDATED CROP REPORTS

MANITOBA SOUTHWEST Seeding operations are complete, and excess moisture has resulted in unseeded acres across the region.

Most areas reported 25 millimetres, but Hamiota and northern parts of the south parkland region received 80 mm. Recently seeded fields have saturated soil and standing water.

Some fields are suffering from compaction and excess moisture, but crops are generally emerging well.

Weeds are rapidly growing, and many producers are seeing early disease issues in cereal crops and adding a fungicide with herbicide applications.

Flea beetle activity is declining, cutworm feeding is on the rise and producers are busy scouting.

NORTHWEST Heavy rain showers ended seeding options, ranging from 25 to 75 mm.

Some greenfeed acres may still be planted.

There’s standing water in low lying areas, and many localized crops are starting to yellow.

Fields are generally showing good germination and emergence.

In-crop herbicide applications are being made as conditions permit.

Many pastures and forage fields remain saturated, and little to no forage harvesting was done, although many are at the proper stage for cutting dairy-quality hay.

Dugouts are overflowing.

CENTRAL Below normal temperatures and excess moisture put a halt to any remaining seeding and slowed crop development. Standing water in fields is common, and some acres have switched to greenfeed.

Nitrogen leaching, lack of oxygen in soils and iron chlorosis deficiency are becoming evident.

Herbicide applications were almost complete and will resume as fields dry. Weeds are rapidly growing, and rutting is evident in the wettest fields. Many crops have had one to two applications. Fungicide applications will target leaf diseases, and timing for fusarium head blight will be a challenge.

Flea beetle activity is declining, and diamondback moth numbers are low. Some acres of corn, sunflowers and soybeans were sprayed for cutworms. High populations of grasshoppers in some areas have been reported, particularly along headlands and roadsides.

EASTERN Precipitation varied from 25 to 30 mm. Some areas experienced hail ranging from nickel to golf ball size, and crop damage is still being assessed.

Standing water is evident in many fields. Cereals, canola and soybeans are beginning to show signs of stress, including crop yellowing.

Below normal temperatures have also affected crop development.

Limited progress made with weed spraying, which is estimated at 60 percent complete. Fungicide applications will continue as fields dry.

First cut of alfalfa has begun for most dairy producers. Yields are

reported to be average or above average.

INTERLAKE Precipitation ranged from 20 to 50 mm with hail reported in some areas. Soil moisture conditions are generally oversaturated. Some established crops are starting to yellow. Herbicide spraying is sporadic because of frequent rainfall.

Winter wheat has started to head in some areas, and spraying for fusarium head blight will begin soon.

Alfalfa seed growers are spraying insecticides on fields before releasing leaf cutter bees in seven to 10 days if weather permits.

There are reports of damage caused by cutworms in soybeans, canola, corn and sunflower fields.

Haying has started with good yields and quality.

SASKATCHEWAN SOUTH Excessive precipitation halted seeding, although some producers may still plant greenfeed crops if time and weather permit.

Rainfall varied from small amounts to much more than 130 millimetres. The Vanguard area reported 138 mm of rain, which made it the wettest area in the province for the week. The Cadillac area has received 328 mm since April 1.

Localized flooding has caused some crop damage, particularly in eastern areas where many roads, yards and fields are under water.

Cropland topsoil moisture conditions are deteriorating in several areas and rated three-quarters adequate. Hayland and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated more than 80 percent adequate.

Crop development on many acres is behind normal, but appear in fair to excellent condition. In-crop herbicide applications are delayed because of excessive moisture, and some may soon be past optimal spraying stages.

seeding progress. However, greenfeed crops may still be planted if conditions improve.

Recent heavy rain has flooded fields, yards and access roads.

The Bruno area received the highest precipitation with 91 mm.

Topsoil moisture conditions vary widely with about 40 percent rated adequate in the east and about 85 percent in the west. Likewise, hayland and pastures are rated about 30 percent adequate in the east and about 90 percent in the west.

There are reports that crops conditions are deteriorating, but overall they remain in good shape.

Crop development is delayed for this time of year, including haying operations.

In-crop herbicide applications are also late.

ALBERTA SOUTH There have been trace amounts of additional precipitation this week, and crops generally appear to be in good condition.

The soil profile is full. Several lowlying areas remain waterlogged and crops remain stressed, depending on the soil type. However, many crops are recovering quickly with hot and humid conditions.

Early seeded canola fields and pulses are just beginning to flower, and early seeded wheat is in the flag leaf stage.

Herbicide spraying is almost completed on late seeded crops and early fungicide spraying has started.

Reports of extensive damage caused by cutworms have some producers considering reseeding into greenfeed.

CENTRAL Average precipitation varied from trace amounts to 25 mm. Crops have seen rapid growth and have almost caught up to normal development for this time of year.

There have been reports of sporadic sightings of cutworms and flea beetles, but minimal effort is needed to control them. Damage from wireworms is on the increase.

There are also heavier and earlier root maggot issues in some canola fields.

Early indications from monitoring suggest there may be upcoming issues with bertha armyworms.

Spraying applications are nearing completion. Disease levels remain low with little need to apply fungicides, but it’s expected to soon increase.

Warmer conditions and timely rain have significantly sped up crop staging, but it remains behind normal. Precipitation varied from 12 to 30 mm. Some low-lying seeded areas were drowned out with little chance of recovery.

Overall topsoil moisture conditions vary from dry to adequate, but below surface conditions are excellent.

First pass spraying applications are complete, and producers are focused on second passes for canola as well as preparing for fungicide applications.

PEACE

Cool temperatures persist, but a couple days of hot, humid weather have helped crops mature quickly.

They generally look even and in excellent condition. Most canola is in the four to six leaf stage with bolting beginning in some fields.

Precipitation varied from trace amounts to 25 mm. Recent heat has spurred crop maturity. Crops are reported to be in good condition.

However, nighttime temperatures remain cooler, and crops are behind normal. In-crop herbicide applications are almost complete.

D’ARCE McMILLAN knows the markets.

Unseeded fields will likely remain that way because of wet conditions, although there may be time for greenfeed crops if weather allows.

Foam Lake was the wettest area, receiving 121 mm. This brings the total amount received since April 1 to 343 mm, the highest amount in the province.

Cropland soil moisture conditions vary widely. Eastern areas continue to deteriorate and are now rated at about 25 percent adequate. Western areas are much better, sitting at about 80 percent adequate. It’s the same with hayland and pastures: the east is about 40 percent adequate and the west is about 90 percent adequate.

Many crops are sitting in water and beginning to yellow. Many incrop spraying applications are past the optimal spraying stages.

Most crops are in fair to excellent condition, but warm weather is a now a priority.

Besides access moisture, crop damage is also attributed to insects, disease and localized light hail.

Many fields remain wet, halting

SPRAYING RESEARCH | FARMING SMARTER FIELD SCHOOL

Is spraying by moonlight effective?

Improving effectiveness | Researchers tested various types and rates of chemicals and how they respond to spray timing

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

It’s midnight in the canola field and all is quiet, except for the distant chirping of crickets — and the rumble and hiss of the sprayer.

Equipment technology has evolved to where night spraying is no harder than day spraying, which can be handy when timing is crucial and acres are many.

But does spraying at night provide effective weed control?

A three-year study undertaken by the Farming Smarter research group based in Lethbridge sought to find the answer.

Now wrapping up Year 3, researchers have bad news for early birds. The common practice of morning spraying for pre-seeding burn-down is less effective than either midnight or midday, with midday showing best results.

Initial results for in-crop spraying show midday herbicide applications have the highest efficacy in peas and canola, while midnight applications provided best control of grassy weeds.

Information about the trials was a topic of discussion at the Farming Smarter field school, which ran June 24-26 in Lethbridge.

“The advent of autosteer has sort of expanded the opportunity to spray at night time, and some guys are crazy enough to do it,” said director Ken Coles.

“You do the outside round (first), you make sure you know where your potholes are, and it does give you an expanded window of operation.”

However, most registered herbicides were tested for daytime application, so trials designed by Agriculture Canada research scientist Bob Blackshaw sprayed crop plots at dawn (4 to 5 a.m.) noon (12-1 p.m.) and midnight (12-1 a.m.)

Plots included Liberty Link and Roundup Ready canola, peas and wheat. Various types and rates of chemicals were tested, creating reams of data that will be crunched over the coming months.

“When I started off in this endeavor, I really didn’t think, to be honest, that we would see the differences that we have,” said Coles.

“I think it’s one of these opportunities that if we have a better understanding of which herbicides work under which conditions, we might be able to come up with a bit of a schedule that will maximize our efficacies.”

Differences between the spray timings were more significant in early growth stages, but tended to level out before harvest, according to early data.

Blackshaw said research results brought surprises but also assurances about night spraying.

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE HERBICIDE EFFICACY: • temperature before, during and after application • relative humidity • dew or rain • sunlight intensity and direction • soil type, organic matter and pH • wind and inversions • resistance • leaf shape and orientation • soil moisture

BOB BLACKSHAW RESEARCH SCIENTIST

“Some of this research has shown that in some cases with some herbicides there’s not a large negative effect, so I think producers that still want to do that, especially if they get behind because of adverse weather conditions … it’s not an absolute nono.”

However, he said for some herbicides, spraying in the daytime provides better results.

“I think that’s especially true for early in the year … when we have cooler conditions.”

It has proven more difficult to analyze how herbicides with different modes of action respond to spray timing. Blackshaw said he thinks it plays a role, but more research is needed for definitive answers.

However, temperature at time of spraying definitely makes a difference, Blackshaw told farmers at the field school.

He said daytime temperatures of at least 10 C are needed for herbicides to be effective.

“The crop needs to grow so it can metabolize the herbicide and break it down so it’s not injured, and the

CANOLA | STORAGE

Growers eager for advice on managing canola in bin Experts scramble for answers | PAMI is conducting trials on three grain bins to determine best management practices to keep grain from spoiling

BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Long-term canola storage isn’t something producers have previously had to worry about.

However, last year’s record harvest and subsequent transportation logjam meant there’s more of the valuable and vulnerable seed sitting in storage as the warm summer months approach.

“There are a lot of questions about how to best store it or how to best manage it, and we can’t answer those questions because this has never happened at this scale before,” said Joy Agnew of the Prairie Agriculture Machinery Institute.

Canola growers are usually advised to aerate grain in the spring before summertime temperatures arrive, raising the temperature of frozen grain to 5 to 10 C and reducing the risk of condensation and spoilage.

This summer, Agnew is leading a project to develop best management practices for the months that follow.

JOY AGNEW PAMI

Funding from the provincial canola grower commissions and the national council will help Agnew monitor three grain bins on a commercial farm near Lake Lenore, Sask.

Each bin holds an average of 3,500 bushels of canola and in early June was equipped with sensors to measure temperature and relative humidity. All of the seed had been frozen over the winter with fans running on days colder than -30 C. One bin has been left untouched, while another will be aerated at night. A third bin was turned in early June.

At that time, frozen grain was coming out of the bin at -25 C and going back in between -5 and 0 C, said

Agnew. Last week, the temperature had risen to -2 C at the bin’s core and 15 C around the edges. The core temperature in the other two bins remained much lower.

Agnew expects to turn the grain again at a later date. The bin that was left alone is already seeing a high relative humidity reading.

“A 4,000 bu. bin that was frozen over the winter is going to be problematic because we’re seeing problems already in that one,” said Agnew.

“I’m thinking that the fan strategy may work. We know the turning strategy seems to work so far … but so far we’ve seen that if you leave it alone, there’s going to be trouble.”

Real-time temperature readings and observations from the bins are available online at grain.pamifiles. ca/display.php.

“That gives producers some immediate feedback, and that’s critical in this kind of situation where they’re having to make decisions now, not in September, when we’re going to have the results ready,” said Agnew.

Producers will have to monitor temperature and relative humidity in their canola to avoid spoilage during the hot summer months. | FILE PHOTO

SPRAYING | FUNGICIDES

Morning good for fungicides

ROBIN BOOKER

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Farmers who like to get out into the field early will like the early results from a study on spray timing for fungicides.

Morning looks like a better time than noon or midnight for applying them.

“So far, what we’ve seen is a trend toward the morning application being best for our fungicide,” said Alberta Agriculture crop pathologist Michael Harding.

“We’ve seen that response in two crops, in peas and barley. It’s been most dramatic in the pea crop. We haven’t really seen any significant differences in wheat or canola, but it may have had more to do with disease pressure than with fungicide.”

Farming Smarter is in the third year of a three-year study on spray timing.

It is investigating results from spray applications in the early morning, at noon and at midnight. Harding talked with participants of a June 24 field school about the results specific to fungicides.

Complete results from the study have yet to be compiled, but Harding said one of the keys to preventive fungicide is proper coverage on the parts of the plant where fungus can invade.

For example, it’s most important to protect the flag leaf when preventing stripe rust in wheat, but broader coverage of the plant is required when guarding against mycosphaerella in peas.

Harding speculates that morning application might prevent fungicides from drying too quickly on plant sur-

Dew might also help distribute the chemical. Some crops close slightly at night, which leaves the canopy more open in the early morning.

As a result, sprayed fungicide can penetrate deeper and touch a wider area of the plant.

The spray timing trials for fungicide were conducted on wheat, barley, canola and peas using various products registered for control of fungal diseases in those crops.

“We are seeing some differences on the fungicides,” Harding said.

“We’re not seeing anything earth shattering. We’re not suggesting you make any life altering decisions based on what we’ve found so far, but we do see some differences, and right now the trend is indicating that morning, for many situations, could be a good time to be putting fungicides on.”

WEED OF THE WEEK: HORSETAIL

BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Most farmers in the brown soil zone haven’t had the pleasure of meeting horsetail.

The darker the soil and the further north farmers are located, the greater the likelihood that they have had to deal with this challenging pest.

Known formally as equisetum arvense, horsetail is not your average weed. It is an ancient plant that has survived in moist soil for millennia.

The perennial can rapidly take over an area of field, spreading via spore and root rather than seed. The rhizome root system is capable of supporting the plant under all but the most intense herbicide programs.

Tillage, unless sustained over a season, is an excellent way to transplant the weed to new parts of a field as the small tubers that form as part of the rhizome are shunted about the countryside.

Most control methods are disruptive to the soil or to the other plants in the area but are necessary to prevent horsetail’s spread.

Round, jointed stems are tipped with light brown cones and grow up to 30 centimetres high. Stems die back once the spores have been released,

giving way to four-sided, green stems.

While it looks like it might have leaves, the plant has only this whorl of branches that can grow up to 80 cm high.

The weed has a poisonous side and can irritate younger livestock. The dry stems can be detrimental to bale production.

The dark, felt-like rhizomes can extend up to two metres into and through the soil.

The Prairie Weed Survey of the early 2000s looked at weed popula-

tions beginning in the 1970s and ranked field horsetail between 14th and 18th most abundant.

Its presence failed to change substantively over the next 30 years.

In the 1970s it followed the soil zone map, with the exceptions of the Regina Plains and the Swift Current and Medicine Hat areas, where it had a roothold. The rest of the brown soil zone was mostly free of the pest.

By the early 2000s it wasn’t found in that region, with the exception of the border area with Montana and North Dakota in southern Saskatchewan.

However, in the Peace River district it grew from being identified in 20 to 50 percent of fields to more than 50 percent.

Intense cropping or forage rotations can suppress horsetail and keep it from becoming a significant issue. However, it can quickly establish in wet, unseeded or flood damaged parts of a field.

Agronomists across the brown soil zone are now reporting instances of the pest showing up the past couple of seasons, which may be the result of sustained higher moisture levels across the Prairies.

Mowing can reduce spore production but won’t eliminate it entirely.

Amitrol can be applied to patches, but this will also eliminate the crop around the plants.

MCPA ammine can be used to control top growth in pastures, flax and cereals.

Drought is the best control, and good crops and drainage can also keep populations in check.

AGRONOMY | NITROGEN LOSS

Too much of a good thing leaches away yields and profits PRECISELY AGRONOMY

THOM WEIR

T

he western Canadian wheat crop is off to a good start and in most areas is just starting its rapid growth phase, the tillering stage.

From now until near maturity, the crop will add an average of 100 pounds of dry matter per acre per day and will take up to 2.5 lb. per day of nitrogen before anthesis, after which the nitrogen uptake rate will slow.

This spring has not been a wet one across Western Canada, but rainfall has been unevenly distributed with some areas receiving 150 millimetres or more over the past month. There is now concern in wetter areas about how much nitrogen might have been lost.

Microbe activity increases when soil temperatures are in the 20s C. These microbes are responsible for mineralization and the release of plant-available nitrogen from soil organic matter. They also convert ammonium to nitrate.

Nitrate nitrogen is susceptible to two major loss mechanisms: leaching and denitrification.

Many soils are moist or even wet in mid-June, but the threat of nitrogen loss is far higher where water has stood, or is standing, than where water has not stood for more than one to two hours.

When water stands long enough for the crop to begin to lose some of its green colour, typically three to four days at warm temperatures, that’s a signal that soil oxygen is becoming depleted.

Lack of oxygen has two negative consequences: • the start of denitrification, which is the conversion of nitrate to gaseous forms of nitrogen • the beginning of root damage, some of which may be permanent Most of the fields suffering from oxygen deprivation this year have recovered well.

It is likely that most fertilizer nitrogen is in the nitrate form by now, though some applied as top dressed urea-ammonium may still remain as ammonium.

Having most of the nitrogen present as nitrate in mid-June is typical.

However, it means that the nitrogen is subject to denitrification and, in lighter-textured soil, to leaching or moving out of the rooting zone.

Previous studies have shown that as much as eight percent of the nitrate

61.75

present can be converted to gas when soil temperatures are in the mid 20s C and lost for each day that saturated conditions persist.

Conversion rates may be lower than this if temperatures are lower deeper in the soil and at night, if some of the nitrogen is still in the ammonium form and if soils still have some oxygen present.

There are indications that denitrification losses may be less than expected in some fields. However, loss of nitrogen may be a smaller problem than the loss of yield potential from plant damage if plants are badly damaged by saturated soil.

It is rare that whole fields remain saturated for days, so the risk of nitrogen loss by leaching in most fields is greater than the risk of loss by denitrification.

It’s reasonable to assume it’s not necessary to add more nitrogen to fields where all of the nitrogen has been applied, especially if some was applied in the spring as anhydrous ammonia, crop colour has remained or is returning to a healthy green and water is no longer standing.

In fields where all of the nitrogen has been applied but where water stood long enough for the crop to lose much of its green color, adding supplemental nitrogen will increase yields only if plants can grow enough new roots to take advantage of the added nitrogen.

Chances of such recovery are much greater when the water comes early, like it did this spring, than when it comes later.

Nitrogen should be added as soon as practical to fields where plants stood in water to the point of turning pale green but now seem to be recovering.

Applying nitrogen as late as the flag leaf stage will often provide a yield benefit if enough rainfall is available to carry it to the plant roots.

It’s good to apply supplemental nitrogen if needed but the yield cost of further delays depends on the nitrogen available to the plant now.

Observing canopy colour is the best way to know how much nitrogen is available to the crop now. The plant is not deficient or at least not deficient enough to reduce yields as long as leaves remain a reasonable shade of green and the final nitrogen supply is adequate.

In that case, some delay in applying nitrogen may not cost any yield.

Uptake will be delayed if weather turns dry after surface application of nitrogen.

Adding nitrogen stabilizers to urea or UAN when top dressing will reduce the loss of nitrogen through volatilization.

TOP: Although most prairie fields got seeded this season, many have areas under water, at least temporarily.

This creates opportunities for mobile nutrients like nitrogen to be lost. | THOM WEIR PHOTOS ABOVE: Crop yellowing is a visual clue that something is wrong in the soil. Root loss and starvation from excessive water can be expected this season. Damage like this is seldom uniform throughout a field.

Beta agonists add on the pounds Optaflexx, Zilmax tested | Heavier carcass weights achieved, including those of Holstein steers

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Beta agonists in livestock feed have come under fire, but the products have proven results in increased weights, carcass leanness and improved dressing percentage.

They were first developed for asthma patients to alleviate breathing problems, but later research discovered a positive growth response, first in mice and later livestock, said LeeAnne Walter, a PhD candidate at West Texas A & M University.

“There is a huge pool of results on beta agonists,” she said at a veterinary conference in Calgary June 19-20.

Producers have to make their own decisions about their use, but research trials from universities and manufacturers show a considerable improvement in carcass weight gain.

Elanco manufactures Optaflexx, which contains ractopamine hydrochloride, and Merck produces Zilmax, which is made from zilpaterol hydro-

chloride. Another product, Actogain from Zoetis, is awaiting approval. It also contains ractopamine.

Many countries have banned meat containing ractopamine.

Last year, Zilmax was voluntarily pulled from the North American market pending further tests because the product was suspected of causing lameness. The manufacturer did not respond to requests for further information on the Zilmax trials.

The products have been tested on thousands of feedlot animals with consistent results.

Elanco tested 26,500 animals that were fed varying levels of ractopamine.

“The more Optaflexx they are fed, there will be an increase in the amount of body weight gain,” Walter said.

Feed efficiency and average daily gain improved from 2.97 pounds per day among the control animals to 3.8 lb. when they received 300 milligrams per head.

Hot carcass weight gain also improved.

Cattle that received 100 mg of the product had a seven lb. carcass weight gain, while those fed 300 mg saw carcass weight improve by 30 lb. over the control group. However, marbling scores went down.

Fifty-nine percent of cattle in the control group graded Choice compared to 54 percent of those receiving the additive. Choice is the equivalent of Canada AAA. “You start to see some shifts in those quality grades … but it is not a major shift,” Walter said.

“It is definitely something that can be managed.”

A test using 26,600 steers fed Zilmax resulted in a 19 lb. body weight gain and 33 lb. of hot carcass weight. Yield grades also improved, but there was a seven percent drop in Choice or AAA and an increase in AA grade.

“You need to be able to manage that as a producer if that is an important part of your value proposition with the packers or whatever ChoiceSelect spread you are locked into,” Walter said.

“Quality grades can be managed with longer days on feed with both Zilmax and Optaflexx.”

Other studies that focused on heifers showed Zilmax had positive results.

A more impressive result was found when feeding Holstein steers. These cattle are longer, taller and light muscled, and the carcasses do not fit well into plant grids because the rib eyes are narrow and the meat is lean.

This additive helped, but the cattle need to be on feed for much longer.

Elanco studies showed ractopamine resulted in an 11 lb. advantage in terms of hot carcass weight, and Merck showed Zilmax added 18 lb.

These products could change the economics of feeding Holstein steers because they gained better and increased their feed efficiency. Marbling scores were also generally better, but it took 305 days on feed to achieve those results.

These products improve carcass weight rather than producing a heavier body weight.

EDMONTON — Harmony Beef could be processing cattle by midNovember, but the new owner says the pace of operations will be slow and steady.

The plant is capable of handling 800 cattle per day, but it will process only 125 head once it opens later this year, said Rich Vesta, principle owner of the plant north of Calgary.

The original plan was to open this summer, but that may have been overly optimistic, Vesta said at the Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency’s annual conference in Edmonton June 17.

Vesta bought the former Rancher’s Beef plant last November.

The federally approved plant was built by a group of beef producers in response to the BSE crisis when live cattle were not eligible for export. It closed in 2005.

“It was built to standards and technology that no other plant in North America has to this day, particularly on the slaughter side,” Vesta said.

Some of that high-level technology may have also contributed to its demise because a stronger marketing plan was needed, he added.

A typical North American plant handles about 250 head per hour, but the technology at this plant is slower, processing 80 to 90 animals per hour.

The cattle will move through the system at six feet per minute compared to other large plants that move them through at five times that speed.

Renovations on the slaughter, fabrication and refrigeration side are continuing at a cost of $16 to 18 million over the purchase price.

The plant is also implementing a new water management system.

“One of the biggest hurdles this plant had to overcome was water,” Vesta said.

The facility once needed as much as 500,000 gallons per day, but an imported European system that recycles water has reduced use to about 20,000 gallons per day. ALMA provided nearly $1 million to develop this system.

The plant has also developed a higher level of food safety, in which cattle do not commingle and more time is spent at each processing station.

Vesta also formed a high powered advisory team that includes Colin G i l l o f A g r i c u l t u re C a n a d a i n Lacombe, Alta., Ken Peterson, former head of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety Inspection Service and Mohammed Koumarie, a former USDA researcher who now leads a private laboratory.

“It ultimately should be the foodsafest plant in North America,” he said. “I will be in this plant every day and I will make sure every product is correct.”

BEEF | PRODUCTION

Survey shows average calving season lasts about 80 days Season length varies | Producer survey finds calving season for Canadian ranchers varies from 60 to as many as 300 days

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

A calf management survey from last year found common threads among beef producers but also considerable variation among herds.

Claire Windeyer of the University of Calgary’s faculty of veterinary medicine asked producers to fill out a two page survey about calving, colostrum use, castration, deworming, preconditioning challenges and suggestions for future research.

The survey also wanted to know about herd death rates and how often producers had to treat for scours and pneumonia.

“We want to correlate the management practices with the outcomes, treatment rates and death rates,” she said at a June 19-20 beef cattle conference sponsored by the faculty.

Nearly 270 cow calf producers from British Columbia to Ontario responded. Most were from Alberta, and herd sizes ranged from three to 1,700 head.

The average herd size was 200.

Scours was the most common problem, and five percent said they had to treat for it. There were fewer treatments for pneumonia at three percent. Calf losses were 2.3 percent and most occurred within 24 hours of birth.

Calving seasons were variable.

Most producers said their calving season started in March and lasted 80 days. Quite a few started in February or May. Some admitted calves were being born throughout the year.

“Some people are calving for quite

some time, but the peak from April, May, June is probably what we would expect,” Windeyer said.

“The average calving season was just under 80 days and a large range from 60 out to 300 days.”

Timing of calving often depended on facilities, weather and age of calves at spring processing.

The study showed those that calved in March had to treat more often for bovine respiratory disease compared to herds calving in January and February, when it is cold and dry.

March weather can be unpredictable, which could be more stressful for newborns.

Those who calved in April had less BRD and fewer deaths.

A long running calving season significantly affects calf uniformity.

“Everybody probably knows this, but when you are trying to market your calves, the more uniform they are, the better it is for your marketing.”

Long calving intervals also expose calves to more disease because manure and mud full of pathogens build up as the season drags on.

A longer season also made it harder for the last cow to catch up and be bred for the following season.

The survey also asked how calves are resuscitated.

Most producers said they put straw in the nose, rub calves vigorously and put cold water in the ear. More than half admitted to hanging calves over gates.

Windeyer said calves should never be hung upside down.

“We as a veterinary community have not passed on that message.”

The guts press down on the lungs, which squashes them when the calf is trying to inflate them.

Calves should be placed upright so both lungs can expand.

Most producers knew that colostrum is necessary at birth for health

and survival because the calves are receiving antibodies, calories, minerals, vitamins and other immunity components. It also warms them up.

Most make sure the calf is sucking, and others said they looked to see if the udder was not full. Three percent said they did not check at all.

BEEF | PAIN RELIEF

Vaccine may offer producers alternative to castrating calves

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Canada’s beef code of practice will require pain relief for castrated older bull calves by 2016.

However, an alternative to traditional methods could be a vaccine that reduces testosterone in bulls approaching puberty.

Researcher Sonia Marti Rodriguez compared the effects of the vaccine with banding young bulls at Agriculture Canada’s Lethbridge research centre.

The vaccine was given twice every three to four months to be effective, she said at a June 19-20 beef cattle conference organized by the University of Calgary’s veterinary faculty.

The study banded the testicles of another group of bulls and monitored their behaviour, pain responses and body and testicle temperatures.

The testicles sloughed off by 42 days as the band tightened. The bulls showed pain during the entire period as indicated with rising cortisol concentrations in saliva and tail flicking.

The vaccinated calves had greater average daily gains by Day 56 than the band castrated calves, although

feed intake slowed down during the first two to three days after vaccination.

She said there was some fever after the injection. Some studies have found inflammation in the neck area where the vaccine was injected, but she did not notice swelling.

The testicles of vaccinated cattle were 65 percent smaller than intact bulls by slaughter time. There was no difference in carcass grade.

The product is Bopriva, manufactured by Zoetis. It has been approved in New Zealand, Australia, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Peru, Turkey and parts of Central America. It is not approved in Canada and the United States, but it is being tested.

The vaccine inhibits the growth hormone gonadotropin, which reduces testosterone levels for three to four months.

This results in decreased sexual and aggressive behaviour and easier management of bulls.

The vaccine should be used for animals entering puberty. There has only been one study with younger calves.

Zoetis’s website advises it should not be used on breeding stock, and pregnant women should not give the injections.

assisted calves had lower death rates in the one week to weaning age range.

Most preferred to make sure the dam provided it, and many said they had frozen colostrum from their own cows available.

Some had dairy colostrum, but that is not good enough for beef cattle.

“Talk to your vet about how to check the quality of colostrum,” Windeyer said.

Not all colostrum is the same. Producers who use a replacement or supplements should read the labels to make sure the calves get the right amount and quality.

Storage can also affect quality, which declines after two hours if left on the counter rather than put in the freezer.

Seventy percent said they use elastrator bands to castrate young calves.

Seventy-five percent said they recorded birth dates and calving ease, and 65 percent said they did some form of preconditioning, such as prevaccinations at spring turnout. Some producers train calves to use a bunk and habituate them to human contact or provide dewormers.

Those who do not precondition said they would do it if there were economic incentives and if they had appropriate facilities and others said they wanted more proof it is effective.

Others said they would do it if they retained their calves.

ROUNDWORMS | CONTROL

Experts study roundworm risks, seek new controls Ivermectin once considered ‘wonder drug’ | Researchers study parasite species to find new treatments

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Roundworm control has been changing for the last five years because of increased resistance to common treatments such as ivermectin, said a parasitologist from the University of Calgary.

New ways of identifying the different types of worms are needed so more precise treatment can be used, said John Gilleard of the university’s faculty of veterinary medicine.

miology of these organisms is very limited, and we really need to move toward more evidence-based control,” he told the university’s annual beef conference held June 19-20.

No significant studies have been done in Western Canada in the last 20 years that could help gain a better understanding of a large group of parasites affecting livestock.

The livestock industry typically relies on ivermectin to control internal and external pests.

“They were the making of their own undoing,” he said. “They were truly wonder drugs at the time.”

No treatments have been produced since the 1980s that worked as well as a broad spectrum treatment on internal and external parasites.

Gastro intestinal nematodes of cattle, or roundworms, inhabit the abomasums and small and large intestines. They all follow the same life cycles, in which they are picked up in pasture, move through the animal and are eventually passed back into the grass via feces.

Diagnosis still relies on fecal egg counts, in which feces are collected and the eggs counted. However, this method does not identify species that may be found in sheep, horses or cattle. It is a slow, insensitive and variable test for cattle.

“The issue of parasite species has been neglected for a long time,” Gilleard said. “It does matter what species we are talking about. The impact

JOHN GILLEARD PARASITOLOGIST

on production varies a lot.”

It is worthwhile knowing which among the four predominant species are infesting an animal so the best treatment can be made.

Merck collected samples in November 2012 from farms across Canada : 23 in Alberta, one in British Columbia, seven in Saskatchewan, two in Manitoba, 16 in Ontario and one in Quebec.

They found 15 to 20 eggs per gram of feces, which is enough to affect an animal. A PCR test identified the species with genetic sequencing.

A good mix of species was found.

Ostertagi ,or brown stomach worm, is the dominant species in Canada.

One-third of Alberta cases did not respond well to treatment, meaning ivermectin is no longer guaranteed to remove all roundworms from Canadian cattle.

Most producers treat in the fall, but two to three doses may be required.

The current treatment practice is driven by convenience because ectoparasite control for lice and grubs works well on internal parasites such

as roundworms.

“We are locked into using these drugs for ectoparasite control, but the problem with that is we are selecting for resistance for roundworms at the same time,” Gilleard said.

Survivors contaminate pastures the following year but the incidence of worms may vary from farm to farm and year to year.

“There has been no real research on the epidemiology of overwintering nematodes in pastures in Western Canada for 25 years,” said Doug Colwell of Agriculture Canada.

Fecal samples from calves in fall will assess how well parasite control is working. Fecal samples from cows in spring will assess how well the fall treatment worked.

It is not known how well these pests survive in a western Canadian winter, but researchers know the weather has an impact.

“These elements, the larvae and the eggs, are susceptible to environmental conditions,” Colwell said. “Moisture is one of those key conditions.”

Past data show there are fewer worms in dry weather.

More recently, researchers developed a geographic map of Alberta by collecting blood and feces samples from calves assembled at 20 auction markets as well as one feedlot from 2008-10.

The samples were frozen, which affects worms.

Blood samples were subjected to

an ELISA test to assess the antibodies the animals produced in response to infestations.

This information was added to the map along with land use and environmental conditions, which provided a clear picture of the temperature, precipitation, humidity, growing days and evaporation from each location.

Three risk categories — low, moderate and high — were developed.

Infestation levels were low in Alberta during the study period with the exception of high risk areas in the middle of central Alberta and a small region south of Calgary that was relatively moist in 2010. Southeastern Alberta and the Grande Prairie region were relatively low risk.

Risk changes from year to year.

Researchers also found that egg counts did not correlate with environmental factors. Antibody levels correlated well with environmental parameters, but more information is needed.

An unexpected result was a large difference between egg count data and ELISA data. The antibody test indicated the cattle had more infestations than previously thought.

“A lot more calves are exposed to nematodes than is picked by the fecal egg counts,” Colwell said.

Vaccine development is far off because nematodes and their interaction with the host are complicated, he added.

VIRUS RESEARCH | TRANSMISSION

Understanding Schmallenberg virus will help experts prepare ANIMAL HEALTH

JAMIE ROTHENBURGER, DVM

The disease infects ruminants, deer, dogs, alpacas and zoo animals

S

chmallenberg virus has continued to spread across Europe since I last wrote about it two years ago.

Cases have been confirmed in 27 countries, including the United Kingdom and Turkey. More than 5,000 farms have been affected.

The infectious agent was named for the German town where the virus was first discovered.

Schmallenberg virus infects ruminants, including cattle, sheep and goats. It has also been detected in deer, dogs, wild boar, alpacas and 19 zoo species. There have been no human infections.

It causes mild, non-fatal illness in adult sheep and cattle. Clinical signs include fever and loss of appetite and weight, which lasts for days to weeks.

Milk production can be substantially reduced in affected dairy cattle.

More serious disease occurs in ewes, nannies and cows that are infected for the first time while pregnant. Outcomes include severe birth defects, abortions and stillbirths.

New studies have found that only a small proportion of infected pregnant cows have these severe outcomes. Most infected cows deliver healthy calves.

Researchers have found Schmallenberg virus in biting midges from several European countries, which supports the theory that these tiny insects play an important role in virus spread.

Transmission continued last winter but it is unknow n whether midges were present within barns to spread the virus or if other insects

Some farms in the United Kingdom saw nearly half their lamb flocks succumb to Schmallenberg virus. | were capable of transmission.

Schmallenberg virus is not spread by contact. Infected dams can pass the virus to offspring, but this is not a major infection route.

The virus is present in blood, milk and semen from affected animals.

Antibodies in infected cattle can last at least two years after infection.

Recovered animals are resistant to re-infection for at least a year.

Several tests have been developed over the last two years that use blood or tissues.

Vaccines have been developed but their widespread efficacy, use and cost-benefit have yet to be established.

The source of the virus is still unknown. Researchers found no trace of it in cattle and sheep blood from the years immediately before the first cases occurred, which suggests it was either circulating at low levels or came from elsewhere.

The European Food Safety Authority says the most significant economic impact is from trade restrictions imposed by countries where the disease is not endemic.

The impact at the herd level seems to vary.

One study of dairy cows found only small differences in milk production and slightly reduced fertility during the season when Schmallenberg virus emerged compared

VERIFIED BEEF PRODUCTION PROGRAM | PARTICIPATION

Sask. producers urged to register in beef program

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

MOOSE JAW, Sask. — Saskatchewan participation in the Verified Beef Production program could be better, says provincial co-ordinator Coy Schellenberg.

As of last fall, 4,079 producers in the province had been trained in the onfarm food safety program, but only 71 operations had been audited. Audits are necessary for producers to be considered registered.

Nationally, 17,100 producers have been trained and 1,004 registered.

“We need more to register,” Schellenberg told the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association’s annual meeting.

“Most producers find they are already doing most of the practices.”

About 240 workshops have been offered in the province since 2005.

The workshops are free and funding is available to help those who want to buy equipment to help them improve their practices.

The program covers half the cost, up to $750. It also covers half the cost of on-farm audits.

Schellenberg said a biosecurity module is in development, as are animal care and environmental stewardship programs.

These will be added to the current focus on standard operating procedures that lead to on-farm food safety.

to the previous year.

In the United Kingdom, some farms experienced greater than 40 percent lamb mortality.

The disease also took its toll on producers, with one in four farmers reporting a high impact on emotional well-being.

An explosion of research has occurred since 2012, with more than 100 scientific papers published.

One of the studies, which tested blood from cattle, sheep and goats in Mozambique, found that 100 percent of cattle and more than 40 percent of sheep and goats had antibodies

against Schmallenberg virus.

It’s possible that the test used in the study could have cross-reacted with other viruses. Researchers need to do further testing to confirm that Schmallenberg is indeed present in Africa.

European scientists, laboratories and research institutions collaborated in response to this outbreak with remarkable speed and openness, which bodes well for future disease emergence scenarios.

REASONS TO BELIEVE Led by its three-year strategic intent, Canada Beef is well positioned to deliver a strong return on beef and veal producers’ national check-off investment by leveraging a dynamic Canadian Beef Advantage delivering recognized value. This is only the beginning.

As the beef industry aligns to a common vision, to deliver our united promise to consumers around the world, we will all see a profitable and sustainable beef industry. We must all strive to ensure we uphold our promise, continue to make our foundation stronger, and then we will have ensured those who matter most to us have the reasons they need to believe in the Canadian beef industry and what we bring to the table.

To deliver value to the producer, Canada Beef must deliver more than recognition, understanding and awareness of Canadian beef – we must create and sustain loyalty to the Canadian beef brand around the world. We must create a competitive atmosphere where the demand for our product is unparalleled. The story of Canadian beef is exceptional, and our challenge is to put our best foot forward in terms of selling and sharing that story. This is the essence of a strong brand – when both the emotional and functional/technical attributes of the product and industry work together to create passion, belief and trust with partners, customers, and ultimately the consuming public.

The Canadian beef brand represents the public image and perception of Canadian beef with consumers, customers and the beef industry. Working closely with our industry partners, we can increasingly leverage the brand in targeted go-to-market strategies to build an affinity and desire for Canadian beef with consumers worldwide. The brand is a promise – a promise the Canadian cattle industry must keep. We must all keep this promise in order to see a bright future for our industry.

Canada Beef looks forward to working with our industry partners and stakeholders to promote and leverage the Canadian Beef Advantage and ultimately drive international brand loyalty. We must and will reward licenced brand partners who can help move the industry forward and deliver recognized value to beef cattle producers and consumers.

This promise is built on four brand pillars that both support and prove the validity of the promise: 1) The Product – flavourful and tender beef that is a wholesome and nutritious choice.

2) The Producer – they produce Canadian beef with integrity reflecting a rich heritage.

3) Quality and Safety – produced according to world class standards for animal health, and meat quality and safety.

4) Sustainability – producers and the value chain together are working to sustain the cattle industry for generations to come.

THE CANADIAN BEEF BRAND PROMISE IS THIS: “Canadian beef has a rich heritage and tradition, produced sustainably and with integrity by Canadians who are global leaders in ensuring quality and safety. Canadian beef is grain-fed and produced from internationally recognized livestock genetics to deliver an exceptional eating experience.”

In order to give customers and consumers reasons to believe in our industry and resulting products, the entire Canadian value chain plays a significant role in making this happen. It is the role of Canada Beef to work specifically through business development with its chosen partners in select priority markets and segments who value, and will remain loyal through premiums paid for Canadian quality beef products. As industry, we fully acknowledge we all need to play an increasing role in ensuring Canadian beef delivers on its brand commitment each and every day.

As I mentioned, this is only the beginning of the evolution our industry is about to experience. Soon you will hear more about a Canadian Beef Centre of Excellence, which I believe will start the most significant change this industry has seen in the past 25 years.

Are you ready?

Alliance Grain Traders has landed a second major customer for its food ingredients business.

The company signed an agreement appointing Ingredion Inc. as the exclusive distributor of its pulse flours, protein and bran ingredients to the food industry.

The deal covers the United States, Canada, China, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. It does not cover other important regions such South America, India or Southeast Asia, but there are provisions to expand the agreement if needed.

“We expect this alliance to be a major catalyst for our global food ingredients business, allowing us an increased and added value offering to our customers,” AGT president Murad Al-Katib said in a news release.

AGT’s food ingredients and packaged food segment contributed $132.26 gross profit per tonne to the company’s first quarter 2014 results compared to $52.53 from the traditional pulses and grain processing segment.

This is the company’s second major customer for the products produced at its food ingredients production facility in Minot, N.D.

AGT signed a five-year agreement with Cargill last year to be its exclusive North American agent for pulse protein products for the pet food and animal feed markets.

Ingredion develops and markets ingredients used by food manufacturers in more than 40 countries. The company had global sales of $6.3 billion in 2013.

The pulse ingredients will be used

in products such as baked goods, snacks, pasta and texturing applications.

“Gaining access to pulses as an additional solution in our toolbox in the form of flours, protein and semolinas aligns with a growing market interest for vegetable and non-GMO protein sources,” said Igor Playner, Ingredion’s vice-president of innovation and strategy.

The ingredients will be used to create protein-fortified and fibre-fortified snacks and gluten-free food.

AGT recently commissioned a second production line at its Minot plant and in-tends to announce a third line in the coming months.

“Then it’s time to start looking at where the next plant is, and Regina has been a big candidate for a food ingredients plant,” said Al-Katib in an interview.

The plan would be to use the surplus capacity at the red lentil splitting plant in Regina, which was AGT’s first pulse processing plant,

and add on flour milling, semolina production and fractionation facilities.

Al-Katib said the company’s expansion into the food ingredient business should remove volatility from pulse markets that have been subject to the vagaries of macroeconomic trends in emerging markets.

“Nestlé is less concerned about the Indian rupee than normal emerging market pulse importers, and we like that,” he said.

It should also result in unique ma rke t i n g o p p o r t u n i t i e s f o r farmers.

“We’re going to be able to come with some very interesting grower contracting programs,” said AlKatib.

A reliable and consistent buyer will eventually allow the company to offer growers multi-year fixed price contracts to match ingredient sales.

He believes a significant portion of the pulses produced in Western Canada will eventually be milled locally into ingredients for the food and feed markets.

“The pulse industry, we believe, is going to follow a path similar to the canola industry,” said Al-Katib.

MONSANTO | FINANCIAL FORECAST

Monsanto profit falls in first quarter, but share price rises on bullish outlook (Reuters) — Monsanto reported a six percent drop in quarterly profit last week, but shares jumped more than five percent as the world’s largest seed company beat forecasts, improved its near-term outlook and said it planned to double earnings over the next five years.

The company also announced authorization of a $10 billion share repurchase and cited strong progress

on a new farm data business platform.

Monsanto said that although earnings for the third quarter ended May 31 were down in the face of challenging market conditions, the overall outlook was bright.

“We’re on track for seeds and traits to drive a majority of our full year growth,” said company chair Hugh Grant. “That performance in a more challenging agricultural environment

speaks to the breadth and customer value of our product portfolio.”

Grant said the company aims to at least double full-year ongoing earnings by the end of fiscal 2019. Most of the growth will come from new seed and GM traits in the pipeline.

“The confidence level is off the charts,” said John Roberts, executive director of U.S. chemical equity research at UBS. “They feel they have

as deep a growth pipeline as they’ve had in a long time.”

Monsanto said it earned $858 million, or $1.62 a share, in the third quarter, down from $909 million, or $1.68 a share, a year earlier, but it beat the average forecast of $1.56 a share from analysts.

Corn seed , the company’s largest revenue source, will remain a growth driver. The crop contributed $1.3 bil-

lion this quarter to total net sales of $4.25 billion.

The company said the outlook for its Roundup business was flat to lower, but its new farm data business unit, the Climate Corp., is promising. It has signed deals with retail partners and expects more than 40 million U.S. acres using its basic farm data tool and more than one million acres using a premium service.

Sask. company marketing byproduct of flax processing Prairie Tide Chemicals | Start-up company has received government funding to help sell orbitides to cosmetic and pet food industries

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Prairie Tide Chemicals has received federal government funding to help commercialize its value-added flax products.

Agriculture Canada is contributing $535,000 to the start-up company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;PTC aims to be the first company to commercialize an element of flaxseed oil called orbitides for use in health food, cosmetics, pet food and possibly pharmaceuticals,â&#x20AC;? said company president Martin Reaney.

Orbitides are what gives flax oil its bitter taste when it sits too long.

Removing the orbitides from the oil results in sweet flax oil and a healthful byproduct that can be used in a variety of applications.

PTC is working with Bioriginal, a Saskatoon food processor specializ-

ing in omega products. Bioriginal will process the seed and market the sweet flax oil and PTC will refine, purify and market the orbitides.

Reaney said the business will rely on facilities at the University of Saskatchewan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We own nothing. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to use the resources that are here,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The orbitides will be refined at the POS Bio-Sciences pilot plant and purified at the Bioprocessing Pilot Plant at the universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agriculture college.

PTC is already manufacturing the product, and the federal government funding will be used to improve processing efficiencies and product quality. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The next step is to just start selling,â&#x20AC;? said Reaney.

The orbitides suppress inflammation, reduce redness and have anti-

aging properties. The initial targets will be the cosmetics and pet food industries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you start making things, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always looking for the markets that are more valuable and more easily entered. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very hard to get into the pharmaceutical space,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Ag-West Bio provided the company with $300,000 in early-stage funding.

Mike Cey, director of corporate initiatives with Ag-West, said it is a worthwhile project for Saskatchewan, where 80 percent of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flax is grown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Manitoba has developed a love affair with soybeans and corn to a lesser extent, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing those flax acres come into Saskatchewan in an even larger way,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So it makes these kinds of valueadded efforts even more important for the entire industry.â&#x20AC;?

AGRIBUSINESS | TAKEOVERS

Investor pressure may result in more ag mergers ZURICH, Switzerland (Reuters) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Media reports that Monsanto had talks about a $40 billion takeover of Swiss rival Syngenta have stoked talk of increased mergers and acquisitions in the chemical and life science industry.

Monsanto, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest seed company, and Syngenta had held preliminary talks about combining, partly to allow the U.S. company to benefit from lower Swiss holding taxes, according to a report from Bloomberg. The talks were later abandoned, the report said.

Analysts expect more deals in the sector as larger players like Monsanto, Bayer and BASF look to bulk up and

broaden their reach in crop protection and seeds.

In April, Chemtura Corp agreed to sell its agrochemical business to rival Platform Specialty Products Corp for about $1 billion.

And Denmarkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Auriga Industries, which controls Danish crop chemical maker Cheminova, said June 13 that it was reviewing strategic options.

Companies in Asia are also looking for more expertise in agrochemicals and seeds, partly because governments such as Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s want to increase domestic production and safeguard food security.

The reported talks with Monsanto

put pressure on Syngenta head Mike Mack to bolster company performance and shareholder returns, said several analysts.

Syngentaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shares have lagged those of European rivals, falling 1.2 percent over the past year compared with a nearly 21 percent rise in the European chemicals sector. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This steadily increasing M&A story plus the activism theme we are seeing in U.S. chemicals mean that management teams in Europe are under more pressure to improve balance sheet efficiency and/or share prices,â&#x20AC;? said Deutsche Bank analyst Virginie Boucher-Ferte.

hat happens in a family of four children when three of the children have left the farm and one stays to help nurture and grow the asset?

In the succession plan do they all get a proportional value of the farm or does the child who has remained on the farm receive more to reflect his or her labour, input and commitment?

Either way, disagreement and perhaps ill feelings will arise from the process.

Tom Dean, author of the best-selling 2008 book Every Familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Business: 12 Common Sense Questions to Protect Your Wealth, suggests that â&#x20AC;&#x153;you gift your wealth and wisdom but not your business.â&#x20AC;?

He thinks that giving the business to the kids can be â&#x20AC;&#x153;incredibly toxic and maybe the most dangerous idea a business owner can pursue.â&#x20AC;?

One approach might be to ask the children to return cash bequeathed them for shares in the business. This will give them risk as well as commitment to the future growth of the business.

However, Dean thinks most children would rather take the money and do something about which they are passionate.

It may feel noble to pass along the family farm, but it might be more of a

millstone to the beneficiaries if they have neither the interest nor commitment to the operation.

The trick is to start the succession planning early, involving the children so that their interests are known and considered and so they can influence the final structure of the plan.

Dean suggests that one simple question in the planning process can reduce the work involved and set a clear path.

Ask the children, â&#x20AC;&#x153;who wants to risk their inheritance to purchase the business?â&#x20AC;?

If the answer is no one, Dean said the parents should start planning the sale of the business at best value and plan to give the cash to the children through the will.

A fairly long planning process is sometimes required to sell the farm.

In many cases, the owners think values will get better down the road or they simply over-value the property at the outset.

Canadian farms are decreasing in numbers as they increase in size to take advantage of economies of scale.

Dean suggests asking these additional questions of family members: â&#x20AC;˘ What will our business look like in five years? â&#x20AC;˘ Is anyone interested in buying the stock and gaining control? â&#x20AC;˘ Will someone sell his or her stock, and if the answer is yes, to whom? â&#x20AC;˘ Does anyone believe that the business can be sold to a third party in the interest of maximizing shareholder value? â&#x20AC;˘ To secure our future prosperity, should we keep the business and invest more money in it or sell it?
