The satellite pictures don’t show mildew, disease and other quality issues

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Statistics Canada’s first satellitebased yield estimate of the year is drawing mixed reaction.

Derek Squair, president of AgriTrend Marketing, thinks the sky imagery of lush crops failed to capture some of the pod-filling and disease problems on the ground.

Statistics Canada is forecasting a 45 bushel per acre spring wheat crop

GET ALL THE FACTS. THEN DECIDE. Our proposal for a uniquely farmer-owned grain handling & fertilizer distribution business is not about old ideas or worn out perspectives.

It’s about the future of farming.

based on historical yield estimates, satellite imagery and agro-climatic data. Statistics Canada’s July and November yield estimates are based on producer surveys.

The satellite estimate doesn’t take into account weather events after Aug. 31.

Squair is expecting a 42.5 bu. per acre average, but quality is the real story, as it is with most other crops.

“We’re going to see lots of (No.) 2 and 3 reds this year and very little

No. 1 red,” said Squair.

Doug Hilderman, vice-president of grain trading for NorAg Resources, estimates 70 percent of Saskatchewan’s crop and 60 percent of Manitoba’s will be in the No. 2 and No. 3 categories, with little wheat making the top grade.

“There’s quite a bit of mildew and there’s basically no tolerance for that,” he said.

The federal government is sticking to its guns when it comes to regulating weekly grain shipments in Western Canada.

Ottawa has confirmed that it will fine Canadian National Railway for the company’s failure to meet a mandate requiring CN to move more than 5,000 rail cars of grain a week.

The fine will be the first issued since Ottawa imposed new regulations, which required CN and Canadian Pacific Railway to each move 536,000 tonnes of grain and oilseed per week or face fines as high as $100,000 per day.

Federal officials declined last week to say how much CN would be fined or how long the company had failed to meet its weekly grain movement obligations.

CN issued a statement last week saying Ottawa’s decision to impose monetary penalties is unfounded.

The company suggested that demand for rail service from the western Canadian grain industry is no longer high enough to warrant mandatory volume requirements.

“A n y g o v e r n m e n t p e n a l t i e s against CN in connection with its transportation of western Canadian grain would be unfounded, given that it’s the current balance of the grain supply chain that has not allowed us to meet the government’s … minimum grain volume requirement,” it said.

Railway fined “CN’s weekly demand has been less than 5,000 cars per week on average for the last several weeks … below the level required to meet the new OIC target of 536,250 metric tonnes per week.”

CN said commercial grain stocks at country grain elevators are at reasonably low levels, in line with the fiveyear average.

Terminal operations at Prince Rupert, B.C., were recently closed for a week for maintenance, and terminals in Vancouver have not been working weekend shifts, the company said.

“Both these factors affected CN’s volumes.”

However, Wade Sobkowich, executive director of the Western Grain Elevators Association, said although grain movement has improved over the past few months, the backlog of rail cars, which is the number requested by grain companies minus the number delivered by railways, is still 20,000 to 25,000.

“Demand for rail cars still exceeds

the supply,” he said.

Conservative MP Randy Hoback from Prince Albert, Sask., called CN’s claim of insufficient demand “grain backlog denialism of the highest sort.”

“Contrary to CN’s claim, there is still grain to move on the Prairies,” Hoback told the House of Commons.

“Farmers have told me that their grain is still not being moved and that CN is refusing to move it.”

Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz said in a statement that the decision to levy fines against CN proves Ottawa is taking the situation seriously and is intent on defending the interests of farmers and other shippers.

“Our government introduced and passed legislation that put into place clear and achievable solutions to ensure grain and other commodities move efficiently to market,” Ritz said.

“Using all means available, our government will continue to defend farmers and all shippers to ensure that our economy is well served by Canada’s rail logistics system.”

Grain companies say they need access to gov’t shipment reports

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The organization that represents Western Canada’s largest grain handling companies is citing problems with the way railway performance is reported and monitored in Canada.

Wade Sobkowich, executive director of the Western Grain Elevators Association, said his members, which include Viterra, Cargill and Richardson, still have an unclear understanding of the methods Canada’s major railways companies are using to report weekly grain movements.

Sobkowich said grain companies have no opportunity to scrutinize the weekly grain shipment reports that the railways submit to government.

Federal bureaucrats use the reports to determine whether railway companies are meeting federally imposed grain shipment targets and then whether the railways should be fined for failing to meet those targets.

Sobkowich said the WGEA should have an opportunity to see the reporting procedures and identify

areas where the accuracy of railway reporting might be breaking down.

“We don’t … see the information that the railways are providing to Transport Canada,” Sobkowich said.

“It’s a black hole to us, and when we ask for the information to be made available … we are not getting that from Transport Canada.”

WGEA recently asked Transport Canada for an opportunity to review railway data and reporting methodologies.

Ottawa denied the request but has since indicated it will levy fines against CN for failing to meet weekly grain shipping targets that were imposed by Ottawa.

“We had suspected that both CN and CP were not meeting the volume thresholds for a number of weeks now,” said Sobkowich.

“That prompted us to write the federal government in August and ask for greater transparency on the numbers.”

Sobkowich said WGEA was “pleasantly surprised” by Ottawa’s decision to levy fines against CN. However, he said problems with the reporting system still must be addressed.

STATISTICS CANADA | FROM PAGE ONE

Analysts debate StatsCan yield report Hilderman believes a lot of the No.2 and No. 3 crop will be sold in the United States, where buyers are not as picky about mildew, so growers might be able to maintain some quality premiums.

He agreed with Statistics Canada’s 45 bu. average, which is well above Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Sept. 8 estimate of 38 bu. However, he believes its canola estimate of 34 bu. per acre is far too low.

“There’s three to four to five bu. an acre that could be added to that,” he said.

Squair has the opposite view. He thinks the crop will average 32 bu.

“If you would have asked me two or three weeks ago, I would say it’s more like 28 or 29, but we’re hearing some better yields as we get into it here,” he said.

“We’re mostly pleasantly surprised with the way the canola is going.”

Neither analyst had a problem with Statistics Canada’s 60 bu. barley estimate, which Squair said that is a disappointing average.

“Barley generally doesn’t handle wet conditions well. It gets a lot of disease in it, so we’re going to have a smaller barley crop this year,” he said.

The durum yield was pegged at 43 bu. per acre, although Squair thinks it could be two or three bu. smaller than that. Durum quality is abysmal.

Saskatchewan Agriculture said 79 percent of the crop was falling into the bottom two grades as of Sept. 15.

“That rain just went through at a very bad time for durum, and the market is already reflecting that,” said Squair.

“I think we’ll see $10 a bu. back to the producer here before too long.”

Both analysts felt Statistics Canada’s 40 bu. soybean forecast is too high.

“Beans have taken quite a bit of punishment in the last few weeks with the rain,” said Hilderman.

He is predicting a 32.5 bu. average.

Saskatchewan Agriculture said the crop was averaging 22 bu. per acre in that province as of Sept. 8.

Saskatchewan Agriculture said the oat crop was averaging 78 bu., although Squair said it could be closer to 80. However, quality will again be the story.

“We’ll see a lot of mildewing in oats this year because it was fairly ripe at the time that those rains came through,” he said.

Flax yields will be disappointing.

Squair expects the average to come in close to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Sept. 8 number of 23 bu.

He expected peas to average 35 bu. per acre, which is slightly above Saskatchewan Agriculture’s 33 bu. number. However, he disagreed with the province’s estimate that 71 percent of the crop will make the top two grades because there is too much earth tag damage.

“I think it’s more like 50 percent.”

He is also more pessimistic about lentil quality. Saskatchewan Agriculture said 61 percent of lentils were in the bottom two grades, but Squair expects that number will be 80 percent by the end of harvest.

He agreed with the province’s yield estimate of 1,341 pounds per acre.

“The hail took a lot of lentils this year. The yields will be all over the map,” said Squair.

FERTILIZER | PRICE OUTLOOK

Analysts’ urea price projections vary Rising or stable? | Rabobank, NPK disagree on direction of urea prices due to supply questions

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Analysts differ on where urea fertilizer prices are heading this fall and beyond.

Rabobank International believes they are on the rise in the SeptemberNovember period.

“We feel there is definitely price support for urea in the coming months, and that is mostly due to some tightness in the market,” said Suzanne Pera, farm inputs analyst with Rabobank.

David Asbridge, president of NPK Fertilizer Advisory Service, sees steady prices until the end of the second quarter of 2015.

“Our price forecast is for urea prices really not to do a whole lot going forward,” he said.

Rabobank said there are supply constraints in the marketplace.

“There are a couple of major producers that are struggling at the moment,” said Pera, who was one of the author’s of Rabobank’s latest quarterly fertilizer outlook.

The constraints are more pronounced for granular urea, which is what Canadian growers use.

China is the driver of global urea prices, exporting 8.3 million tonnes last year. The next biggest player was Qatar at 4.9 million tonnes.

Market expectations were that China would ship 10 million tonnes of product this year because of a

relaxation of export taxes.

“They started to reduce that this year, which had people in a panic state because they thought all that urea is going to come on the export market,” said Pera.

“It seems traders have overestimated the country’s source of seemingly infinite cheap urea.”

She believes China will have a tough time shipping 10 million tonnes of product this year. Asbridge expects it to be closer to nine million tonnes.

Ukraine’s urea exports have also been curtailed. Production has been halted at most plants since Russia banned gas exports in June. Ukraine was the seventh largest urea exporter last year, shipping out 2.5 million tonnes.

Producers in the Middle East and North Africa are also struggling with gas supply and operational problems.

Asbridge agreed that a number of factors are contributing to a tight supply, such as gas problems in Egypt and a delay in getting a new plant running in Algeria. However, he thinks they are all temporary issues and there should be plenty of supply.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen in Ukraine obviously, but we think the rest of these problems are going to kind of work themselves out here over the next little bit,” he said.

U.S. urea imports from July to September will likely be 1.6 million

AROUND THE WORLD Estimated urea exports in 2013 (million tonnes): China 8.3 Qatar 4.9 Russia 4.8 Saudi Arabia 3.2 Egypt 3.1 Oman 2.7 Ukraine 2.5 U.A. Emirates 1.8 Source: CRU | WP GRAPHIC

tonnes, down from expectations of two million tonnes.

Significant logistical problems in North America are compounding the problems caused by short supply.

Barge freight rates to ship product from New Orleans to the U.S. Midwest have skyrocketed. A typical contracted rate from New Orleans to Minneapolis is about US$17.50 per short ton. Spot prices have been as high as $45 per ton.

There is also significant rail congestion caused by increased competition from the Bakken oilfields.

The lack of supply combined with low inventories and logistical problems caused urea prices to rise in summer, which is the opposite of what usually happens.

“But I think we’re beginning to get caught up a little bit now to the point

where the price increases are going to stop for a little while,” said Asbridge.

“There is no real reason to jump in right now to buy spring needs. We just don’t see that there is anything that is going to push these prices much higher.”

Rabobank believes demand for urea will remain strong despite slumping grain prices.

The U.S. is a huge market for nitrogen fertilizer, and U.S. farm equity has risen by 34 percent since 2008, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

“This likely leaves farmers sufficiently equipped to spend money on inputs,” said Rabobank in its fertilizer outlook report.

History has shown that when growers cut back on fertilizer it tends to be potash and phosphate.

“A strong deterioration of (urea) demand is not likely,” said Pera.

Heavy spring fertilizer use in the United States has depleted supplies at the retail level, contributing to what Rabobank expects to be an increase in demand and consequently prices.

On the other hand, retailers may be worried about stocking up at today’s prices because farmers might not be willing to buy it because of slumping grain prices.

Fall demand is expected to be strong in the U.S. and China, but could soften in India because of a lack of rain and a weak rupee.

CP sues Ottawa over rail regulations Interswitching rules | Ag minister says provision increases competition

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canadian Pacific Railway has launched a lawsuit against the federal government, challenging the legality of new rail regulations stemming from the Fair Rail for Grain Farmers Act. The case, which was filed with the Federal Court of Appeals Aug. 29, lists the Canadian Transportation Agency and the federal attorney general.

CP officials declined to comment, but sources familiar with the case said CP is appealing the process that led to changes in Canada’s railway interswitching rules.

Interswitching is intended to give rail shippers access to additional rail service in areas that are served by only one railway company.

CP contends that the federal government overstepped its authority and acted illegally when it imposed new regulations that extended interswitching provisions to 160 kilometres from 30 km.

The company claimed earlier this year that extending interswitching would result in financial losses, slower transit times, workforce reductions and reduced investment.

“The expansion of regulated interswitching could seriously impact Canada’s competitiveness as it effectively transfers traffic that normally would move over Canadian railways and ports to U.S. railroads and ports, potentially resulting in job losses, reduced investment and the dampening of the Canadian economy,” CP said in a news release issued earlier this year.

“Interswitching will also lead to double handling of grain shipments, which will slow down the grain supply chain negatively impacting transit times.”

Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz’s office said in an email that the Fair Rail for Grain Farmers Act and related regulations were intended to ensure the efficient movement of grain and other commodities to international markets.

“Our government introduced and passed legislation unanimously through Parliament that put into place clear and achievable solutions to ensure grain and other commodities move efficiently to market,” Ritz said.

“By extending the interswitching limit from 30 km to 160 km across the Prairies for all commodities, we are giving shippers access to greater rail competition.

“Our government is hopeful that CP and all members of the rail logistics supply chain will embrace being part of the solution as opposed to being entrenched in the problems of the past.”

MANITOBA HOG PRODUCTION

Pork group says regulations hinder hog investment

• Manitoba was the largest pig producing and pig exporting province last year, with 29.4 percent of national production.

Manure management | Manitoba Pork Council official protests provincial government’s requirements for anaerobic digesters in new barns

• The number of Manitoba sites producing pigs has declined by 33 percent over the last seven years.

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Manitoba’s hog industry is at a standstill because the province wants new pig barns to have “zero impact” on the environment, says Manitoba Pork Council chair Karl Kynoch.

Kynoch, who spoke at a Brandon Chamber of Commerce luncheon in mid-September, said the provincial government is unwilling to modify its manure management regulations.

Consequently, producers and companies are unwilling to invest in new barns.

“I was told they wanted zero impact. If we put up a hog barn, they wanted zero impact to the environment,” Kynoch said following his speech.

“We’re ver y frustrated. We’ve come up with (several) proposals.

They’ve set the bar for those proposals. But once we get there, then they move the bar or find some reason not to do it.”

Manitoba Pork has asked the province over the last 24 months to amend its regulations for building new hog barns and expanding existing barns. The regulations require barns to have an anaerobic digester to treat manure.

The province says it established the rules to protect the water quality of Lake Winnipeg.

Manitoba hog producers have said the regulations are too costly because an anaerobic digester for a small pig barn may cost $1 million.

Manitoba Pork proposed a cheaper option, building additional earthen storage structures, but Kynoch said the province rejected that proposal and rebuffed an idea to inject pig manure into the soil.

Kynoch said the province wants to build a hog barn as a pilot project to study how to raise pigs with minimal to zero impact on water quality. He said that’s pointless because the research could take five years and the industry can’t wait that long.

Manitoba farmers need to expand hog production because the Maple Leaf Foods pork processing plant in Brandon needs more pigs.

Morgan Curran-Blaney, manager of the Brandon plant, said in July it needs 20,000 additional hogs per week.

A spokesperson for Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship said the existing regulations aren’t set in stone.

“Discussions on this issue are ongoing. Ensuring increased and sustainable supply is an important

government priority, and the province is committed to working with Manitoba Pork on a path that will ensure an environmentally and economically sustainable solution.”

Mel Hofer, a member of Deerboine Colony Farms near Alexander, Man., said the province’s nutrient management regulations are senseless. There is one set of rules for synthetic fertilizer and another for pig manure.

“I could buy as much (synthetic) fertilizer as I want and I can apply as much fertilizer as I want, but when it comes to spreading organic (pig) manure … I can’t spread it,” he said.

The regulations are blocking investment in new barns, he added.

Kynoch said the restrictive rules are absurd because only .5 percent of the phosphorus entering Lake Winnipeg comes from hog barns.

The provincial conser vation spokesperson didn’t comment on those estimates, but said agriculture’s contribution is much higher.

“Generally, we know that about one-third of the nutrient load that enters waterways and Lake Winnipeg comes from agricultural activities.”

• Approximately 270 pig producers and production companies are registered in Manitoba this year.

They produce pigs at 580 sites of one to four barns.

• Total production hasn’t dropped significantly in Manitoba because the number of pigs per farm has increased from 2,500 in 2006 to much more than 4,000 last year.

• The province produced 4.684 million slaughter hogs last year, down from 5.349 million in 2007.

• The country slaughtered 4.3 million Manitoba hogs last year.

• There are 315,400 sows on farms this year, down from 369,300 in 2007.

MANITOBA HOG SLAUGHTER • The Maple Leaf Foods plant in Brandon has a capacity of 4.5 million hogs a year.

• The Hylife plant in Neepawa has a capacity of 1.4 million hogs.

• The two plants operated at 85 percent of capacity last year.

Comparable American plants operate at 97 percent capacity.

• Hog slaughter peaked at 5.57 million in 2012 but dropped to 5.43 million last year.

HARVEST | COMBINING

Flattened crops challenge producers Harvest work slowed | Producers who received snow in early September are finding they have to use the swather more

BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The best equipped farmer may be the first to cross the finish line this year.

Many producers have been challenged by flat or leaning crops after frost in mid-September, cool weather, rain and the early appearance of snow in some regions.

“It’s one of those things where definitely the newest technology as far as equipment is really paying off … but it’s still not ideal,” said Stephen Vandervalk, vice-president of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association.

Newer swathers are speeding up work on Vandervalk’s farm near Fort Macleod, Alta.

“In the last five years, farmers really equipped up. If this happened five years ago, it’d be a lot worse for sure,” he said. “I would say 75 percent of farmers are equipped today to handle (it) … It takes way longer if you don’t have the right equipment.”

Like many Alberta producers, Vandervalk received snow in the second week of September, which kept him out of his fields for a week.

He’s now swathing thousands of acres that he would normally straight cut, and when the combining is running, it’s moving more slowly than normal.

Vandervalk said flatter crops challenge older swathers, but newer machines, which more closely follow the contour of the ground, perform better. “(Conditions are) so variable. If you have flat land with no rocks, it’s going to be a nuisance but not that big of a deal,” he said. “If you have (rolling) land and rocks, it’s a huge deal because at any moment you can

Under normal conditions, the Monteiths of High River, Alta., would straight cut their wheat, but with a good part of the crop flattened by snow in early September, they’ve been forced to swath to lift the crop before combining. | MIKE STURK PHOTO wreck your combine with a rock going through it, literally at any moment. So you have to swath it.”

Vandervalk said this year’s weather has been hard on malting barley, and he’s seen a lot of barley with broken heads.

Most of the canola in his area had been swathed before the frost.

“I’ve heard of some guys that they don’t have the right equipment, too, like the RotoShear (crop cutter and lifter),” he said.

“They’re having a lot of troubles … because their canola is laying flat and when you try to go through it, it just tangles up on the end of your header.”

Vandervalk said lifters work, as long as the crop is leaning in one direction.

Eldon Couey, who farms near High River, Alta., said his neighbours’ wheat fields are leaning in every direction. “(It) is just like you’ve got a bunch of stooks out in the field, the way the

snow and the wind and all that hit it,” he said.

“It’s going to be lots of fun trying to get this crop off.”

Couey, who had barley and canola left to harvest last week, is effectively using lifters on his barley but needed as many as 10 days to finish his canola.

The most recent provincial crop reports available as of press time showed harvest operations were progressing across Western Canada fol-

lowing a mid-month cool spell, but progress remained well below average.

Vandervalk said Sept. 19 he needed another 10 days on the combine. Last week saw the first three consecutive days of harvest operations on his farm since he started work in the third week of August.

“I think there’s been billions of dollars wiped out across Western Canada (this growing season) between all the rain and then what I would call early heavy frost,” he said.

MARKETING | PROTECTION

Farmers delivering grain to feed mills still lack payment protection Few insurance options | Feed mills don’t have to be licensed, so officials are examining ways to ensure producers receive payment

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Grain farmers owed money by a Manitoba hog company that went out of business two years ago are still in the midst of a legal battle.

Seventeen growers owed $903,250 by the now defunct Puratone intend to file a new statement of claim this week against former officers and directors of the company.

Their case highlights one of the major shortcomings of Canada’s producer payment protection system.

The Canadian Grain Commission does not license feed mills, which means grain delivered to those companies is not covered by a posted bond.

A lot of grain could be marketed through feed channels because of the dismal quality of this year’s crop, which means growers need to be aware that grain isn’t protected, said John Sigurdson, spokesperson for the group pursing legal action against Puratone.

“Make sure you get paid for that first load before you deliver the second one. Keep things current,” he said.

Doug Chorney, president of Keystone Agricultural Producers, said the feed mill exemption is a major failing of the current system.

He was hoping a new producer payment protection system would be in place for 2014-15.

The grain commission had been in negotiations with Atradius Credit Insurance about establishing an insurance-based protection model, but negotiations fell apart in July.

Grain groups have not been given much of an explanation for why the negotiations collapsed or what alternatives are being explored.

Commission spokesperson Remi Gosselin said it is a sensitive issue.

“Unfortunately, I can’t discuss the details of the negotiation process because the negotiations between the CGC and Atradius were confidential,” he said.

“We just wanted to develop a cost effective producer protection model,

and it did not meet those objectives,” said Gosselin.

The commission is continuing to pursue alternatives to the existing system, which were outlined in a 2009 report by Scott Wolfe Management.

That could include a different type of insurance based model.

Chorney said the current system fails to fully protect growers, and with about $1 billion of grain industry capital tied up in the program, it has become too expensive for grain buyers.

“We know that the costs that are built into the system all go back to farmers, so we want it to be as cost efficient as possible,” he said.

KAP is pushing for the adoption of an Ontario-based model that sets aside grower check-off money in a fund that covers producers in the case of a shortfall.

KAP wants the federal government to provide a guarantee for about five years until enough money is in the fund to cover losses. Growers would own and administer the fund.

Gosselin said the commission is also aware of grower concerns about the lack of coverage for grain delivered to feed mills.

“That’s a separate policy issue, but we’re looking at that as well,” he said.

Feed mills are not covered because the producer protection system falls under the commission’s quality assurance mandate, and feed mills are not part of that domain.

The commission licenses 160 grain companies and dealers under the current system. Expanding the program to include feed mills would be a huge undertaking.

“There would be well over 250 additional companies if the net was cast quite widely,” Gosselin said.

“We need to figure out what types of feed mills are out there and what would be eligible for licensing, so a lot of work needs to go into it.”

KAP has explored private insurance options for growers who deliver grain to unlicensed feed mills, distilleries, certain producer car

facilities and other exempted companies.

Producers can buy accounts receivable insurance for about $500 for every $100,000 of grain delivered, depending on what a credit assessment of the buyer turns up. A deductible is usually attached to the policy ranging from five to 10 percent of the value of the grain delivered.

“Maybe we should be talking that up more in the absence of anything happening at the Canadian Grain Commission or the federal government,” said Chorney.

In the meantime, farmers continue a long and costly legal battle to recoup their losses from Puratone.

“A lot of the farmers in our group are getting pretty frustrated, but everybody has stuck it out so far,” Sigurdson said.

“Why should we get run over every time something like this happens?

We have to leave some kind of legacy for our future generations that at least we didn’t let this thing (fall by) the wayside.”

CROP SUPPLY | FORECAST

Strong demand will eat new crop supply Ending stocks will dip | Some analysts expect the carry-out to be almost half of last year

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

The weather has made the job a bit tougher, but there’s nothing to derail the belief that Canadian grain stocks won’t be a problem by the end of the crop year.

Buyers might even start feeling a bit anxious about getting supplies of some crops.

“There’s some for sure: oats and canola. That’s two of them,” said Wild Oats newsletter editor John Duvenaud about shrinking supplies of prairie crops.

This year’s harvest is expected to be much smaller than last year but demand is expected to be good.

“Canola’s going to be pretty tight.”

That assessment holds through the prairie grain industry, with the residue of the huge 2013-14 crop still being sold, but smaller new crop supplies expected to meet healthy demand through the year.

Analysts say ending stocks won’t just be lower than average for recent years but will be substantially lower than average when considered against growing demand.

“I think for most crops, we’ll see quite tight stocks by the end of the year,” said Chuck Penner of Left Field Commodity Research.

“I’m confident export demand will be quite strong. There will be lots of demand for quality product.”

Stocks at the end of 2013-14 were bloated, but Agriculture Canada in its Sept. 18 Outlook for Principal Field Crops forecasts stocks will be down by almost half at the end of 2014-15.

“Carry-out stocks are expected to decrease by 43 percent from the 2013-14 level,” says the report.

Analysts say canola will be particularly affected by increased demand.

The domestic industry is crushing seven million tonnes per year, which is 11 percent more than in 2012-13.

Exports in 2013-14 were up 23 percent from the previous year to nine million tonnes, and that momentum should carry through 2014-15, Duvenaud thinks.

Cristy Monteith collects a sample of wheat as it moves from truck to bin Sept. 16 on a farm near High River, Alta. | “It’s hard to turn usage off,” said Duvenaud.

Oat demand is good and production is down, giving that crop a relatively strong pricing position.

Barley production is down, but feed barley is facing a challenge from the mountain of feed grains the Prairies have produced this year because of bad weather.

“There will be a premium for barley, but there’s a limit to how much that will be because feed grains are easily substituteable,” said Jon Driedger of FarmLink Marketing.

The year end stocks of Canadian lentils, oats, canola and durum all will be down and normally that is

bullish for prices but markets will be weighed down by huge U.S. soybean and corn crops and a large world wheat crop.

“That’s what’s dragging us down across the board,” said Driedger.

Farmers will also be marketing a crop that has major portions below the top quality grades, making it more difficult to sell, handle and obtain good prices for them.

However, farmers should be able to move their crops because the transportation system is unlikely to be overloaded this year.

“Ending stocks are not going to be that heavy across our major crops,” said Driedger.

FUTURES | WHEAT

HRSW futures diverge from cash market Quality premiums, discounts | Some buyers are low-balling while some are offering top prices for small amounts

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

What’s quality wheat worth?

These days you don’t get much of an idea from looking at Minneapolis Grain Exchange hard red spring wheat futures, analysts acknowledge.

It means farmers have to do more legwork to find out the value of what they have in the bin.

“The futures keep dropping, but guys are seeing (much higher prices) for 13 percent protein (from buyers,)” said Kyle Sinclair of the Agfinity online marketplace.

Farmers are dealing with both dropping HRSW futures and reports of premiums for quality spring wheat.

Basis levels are all over the place, and it’s hard for farmers to determine the real, contemporary price of good spring wheat.

However, no one denies that quality wheat is worth much more than the futures indicate.

“Basis levels and cash bids are doing most of the heavy lifting,” said Jon Driedger of FarmLink Marketing.

HRSW futures trader Austin Damiani of Frontier Futures said the Minneapolis contract has lots of specifications, but it is set up in a way that allows lots of wiggle room.

“There is a protein requirement, but the other requirements are pretty loose in terms of the colour, the falling number and some of those things,” said Damiani.

Driedger said the penalties on s o m e s p e c i f i c a t i o n s a re l i g h t enough to encourage some to consider delivery against the contract, particularly in a year like this with big cash market discounts for quality damage.

Worried buyers and long position holders might liquidate to avoid the prospect of being forced to accept delivery.

“You might be setting yourself up to have some (poor) crop delivered against you,” said Driedger.

“That increases the selling pressure.”

Combiners are encountering good, bad and awful wheat crops this fall. Wide discounts and premiums linked to quality and protein are emerging, making the Minneapolis spring wheat futures contract only a rough guide to what can be expected in the cash market. | D’ARCE MCMILLAN PHOTO Chuck Penner of Left Field Commodity Research said HRSW futures often get dragged along in the vortex of general crop prices movements, so with corn and other wheat classes slumping, spring wheat futures can follow without regard to the physical situation.

“Everyone’s dumping on those markets right now, so it’s hard for anything to turn it,” said Penner.

That leaves farmers with the tough task of determining what the real value of spring wheat is now. Futures

aren’t a true gauge, and basis bids vary widely.

Sinclair said he tells farmers to look for the price that most buyers are willing to pay. Extreme bids on either end don’t make a lot of difference.

“I see the market price as the price where the majority of the buyers are,” said Sinclair.

“There are always going to be guys low-balling and trying to make a lot more margin on it, or they don’t need it … and there are buyers that come in suddenly above it.”

Some elevator bids can seem too good to be true, but they can be real, if only for small amounts of grain,” said Jim Beusekom of Market Place Commodities.

That doesn’t mean it’s a “market price,” he added.

“Ever y bid has a price and an amount.”

The bid can disappear once that small order is filled, and the buyer will then drop the posted price by dozens of cents per bushel.

Farmers need to act fast to get the

best bids, but if they miss one, they can wait for the next to appear because it will likely come within days or weeks.

An end user who needs good quality wheat might have to tell a grain company to pay whatever is needed to fill the order.

“If a guy has a limited call list to source from and all those (farmers) are saying ‘No, I want more,’ it’s just a matter of time before that buyer caves and says, ‘I’ll do what I have to to get it,’ ” said Sinclair.

TRENDS | HOLDING STEADY

Oat prices buck commodity trends with positive fall forecast Prices hold steady | Analysts say farmers may find premium prices for quality oats following harvest

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

When are stagnant prices good?

When everything else is going down.

That’s why the flatness of recent oat prices is a relief to many farmers and a bullish sign to some analysts.

“Our cash bids have been fairly steady,” said Jon Driedger of FarmLink Marketing.

John Duvenaud, editor of the Wild Oats newsletter, said oats’ steadiness is nice when wheat, canola and almost every other crop’s price is falling.

“Heck, $3.15 isn’t a bad price,” Duvenaud said of the prairie cash market.

Oat prices have had a strange year, with last winter’s epic transportation problems creating a textbook case of disjuncture between cash values and futures prices as farmers struggled to get their crops to market. Futures prices were sky-high while cash values were abysmal. Often, no bid could be found at all.

However, oat acreage has drifted lower in recent years as corn and soybeans move into its traditional areas of eastern Manitoba, while wheat and canola have stolen many acres further west.

It’s led to an acreage base that looks small for the expected demand. With recent wet weather hurting crop quality, the ability of prairie farmers to meet millers’ demand for quality

oats looks limited. Already tight supplies now look extremely tight.

“We had a smaller crop, and now it’s looking mostly borderline (No.) 2-3,” said Duvenaud.

“There isn’t much good.”

Chuck Penner of Left Field Commodity Research said it’s a bullish sign if oats stay within the trading range of recent months because the North American and world grains complex is overwhelmingly bearish.

“If it can stay flat through harvest, that’s a sign of strength,” said Penner.

Oats is under harvest pressure, as is every other crop, but Kyle Sinclair of Agfinity said the crop is likely to be one of the first to feel aggressive demand-pull once that clears.

“If you have a good quality crop, there is a much greater chance of getting a quality premium going into October or November,” said Sinclair.

Rushing sales now isn’t attractive to many farmers because they don’t know if they can commit to delivering good quality.

“Guys are worried about booking a 2 CW oat,” said Sinclair.

Hanging on for at least a few weeks to price one of the most bullishly supplied crops makes sense.

“When the market is fairly flat and doesn’t seem to react too much to any kind of news, there is a chance that you will get 25 or 50 cents a bushel more if you have good quality stuff and you wait until the market just turns for you,” said Sinclair.

SOYBEAN DEMAND | DEBATE OVER FUTURE

Expert skeptical on China’s grim soybean demand Concern overblown | Analysts says 25 percent drop is ‘hard to swallow’ and predict continued strong exports

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Concerns are overblown about wilting Chinese soybean demand putting further downward pressure on the oilseed complex, says an analyst.

An official from the China National Grain and Oils Information Center is forecasting plummeting demand from a country that accounted for 63 percent of world soybean trade in 2013-14.

“This year, imports from the U.S. could fall by one-fourth because of large soy stocks and poor margins,” said the unnamed analyst in a recent Reuters story.

That would be a disaster, considering the United States is set to harvest a record 107 million tonnes of the crop, up 19 percent from last year.

Arlan Suderman, senior market analyst with Water Street Advisory, isn’t buying the report out of China.

“I’m bearish soybeans, but I’m bullish demand,” he said.

“Falling by 25 percent is pretty hard to swallow.”

The Reuters story said Chinese soybean processors have been con-

fronted by negative crush margins since February. They are losing C$72 for every tonne of soybeans they crush.

Suderman doesn’t pay much attention to crush margins.

“I don’t know how many times over the last five to 10 years we’ve heard how soybean demand is going to crumble because (China’s) crush margins are bad and then (China) just keeps on taking soybeans.”

He believes the health of the Chinese economy is a better barometer of demand.

“Its economy is slowing and that is a warning sign, but as long as (China’s) economy is growing at a strong enough clip to provide income for people, they want meat in their diet.”

Soybeans are crushed mainly for the meal to feed to livestock.

China’s economy is growing at about seven percent, shy of the 7.5 percent target.

That rate of growth is still the envy of most developed economies and more than enough to sustain strong demand for meat and the soybean meal fed to livestock.

“I certainly do not expect the big pull-back that many are talking

Like an old friend.

Fears over crumbling Chinese soybean demand have been heard before, and then they keep on taking soybeans, says one analyst. | FILE PHOTO about,” said Suderman.

Chinese crush margins are suffering because government support programs have artificially propped up domestic soybean prices to $19 to $20 per bushel.

However, processing plants have hedging programs to protect against

high commodity prices, and even when margins are slim, history has shown demand may temporarily drop but only by five to 10 percent.

Suderman believes the market will be pleasantly surprised by the strength of soybean demand in 201415, but he also realizes that supply is

going to overwhelm demand, which is bearish for soybean and other oilseed prices.

“It’s probably going to require a significant weather problem in South America to give us any kind of decent rebound in prices over the coming nine months,” he said.

(Reuters)— U.S. approval of Dow AgroSciences’ new Enlist herbicide tolerant, genetically modified corn and soybean systems takes the company a step closer to its “most important” product launch ever.

However, a series of hurdles remain.

“We sure are aware of the concerns that have been expressed,” said company president Tim Hassinger.

“At the same time, we’ve been really pleased with how the farm community and the broader agricultural community have come forward in support.”

Dow AgroSciences has spent nearly five years seeking U.S. regulatory approval for the new herbicide and new herbicide-tolerant crops, which it calls the Enlist Weed Control System.

Dow projects that Enlist has a $1 billion value for the company and hopes it can be on the market in time for the 2015 U.S. planting season.

“This regulatory process on Enlist ... has been a lot of work. This has been very thoroughly tested,” said Hassinger.

The seed and herbicide have received approval in Canada, and the company hopes to have Enlist corn ready for commercial release in Eastern Canada in 2015 and soybeans in 2016. Canola products could role out the following year.

Enlist Duo is a combination of glyphosate and 2,4-D choline, which is designed to address problems with glyphosate resistant weeds.

Dow, which had $7.1 billion in revenue last year, hopes Enlist will boost

Dow hopes to have Enlist corn ready for commercial release in Eastern Canada next year and soybeans in 2016. | FILE PHOTO its share of the lucrative U.S. seed market, which now is dominated by Monsanto.

However, threats of lawsuits by food safety and environmental groups who want to block Enlist could delay Dow’s hopes to have U.S. farmers planting the new crops next spring.

Critics have inundated regulators with predictions that the herbicide will increase already severe weed resistance problems on farms and create safety issues for consumers.

“We will litigate,” said Andrew Kimbrell, executive director of the Center for Food Safety.

The non-profit group has a history of winning court orders that have delayed other GM crops, including sugar beets, canola and alfalfa.

Another potential hurdle is Dow’s lack of Chinese import approval for Enlist. China has recently been rejecting shipments of U.S. corn because of concerns it contains a GM corn developed by Syngenta that has

been approved in the United States but not in China.

Dow said it has not determined if it will wait for Chinese approval before selling Enlist in the U.S. Hassinger said the company was “right in the middle of the process” in its quest for Chinese import approval of Enlist.

The process generally takes two years, he added.

Part of the process requires Dow to ship its GM seeds to China for testing before they can gain approval.

And though the U.S. Department of Agriculture approved Enlist crops Sept. 17, the company still needs approval from the Environmental Protection Agency for Enlist herbicide.

Hassinger said the company will not discuss detailed plans for commercialization until the EPA announces its decision.

Dow is also seeking approval in Brazil and Argentina.

CANFAX REPORT

Small beef herd may force plant closures

FED CATTLE STEADY

MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

E

xpect more contraction in North America’s cattle slaughter sector as the beef herd edges toward its rebuilding phase.

Meat prices have been at record highs because North America’s cattle and hog herds are the smallest in years.

However, meat would be even more expensive if livestock feeders were not pushing their cattle and hogs to ever-larger carcass weights.

The average dressed weight for slaughtered steers in the United States in the week to Sept. 6 was 889 pounds, up 17 lb. from the same week last year.

The cost of buying light cattle to place in feedlots is soaring, which means it is more profitable for them to keep the existing animals eating cheap corn for as long as possible, packing on the pounds.

Today’s steers are about 80 lb. heavier than they were 10 years ago and 110 lb. heavier than 20 years ago.

This extra weight helps to prop up the amount of beef available, but it does not address the fact that not enough slaughter cattle are available to keep all the plants in North America operating profitably.

And when cow-calf producers finally do start to retain heifers to rebuild their herds, it will further shrink the number of cattle available for slaughter.

Livestock analyst Kevin Grier said

in the Sept. 22 Canadian Cattle Buyer that producers should plan on one or two more beef slaughter plants closing. The plants that already closed in Texas and California have not affected Canadian producers, but future closures might, he added.

Grier said he has not had success in the past forecasting packer strategies, and they have often done the opposite of what he expected. However, he makes a speculative survey of several operations to spark discussion.

The worse case scenario of Grier’s speculation is the closure of the JBS plant at Brooks, Alta. He said profit margins were likely disappointing for Alberta packers this year, fewer cattle are in the pipeline for next year and the labour supply is a continuing challenge.

He speculated that if the JBS Brooks plant closed, it would provide an opportunity for the company’s plant at Hyrum, Utah, to access Alberta cattle.

Grier also discusses the Tyson plant at Pasco, Washington. In the past it bought about 250,000 cattle annually from Western Canada but now takes a fraction of that because of country-oforigin labelling. However, it remains a player in the Alberta market.

The Pasco plant is one of Tyson’s oldest and smallest and is geographically on the periphery of the U.S. cattle industry.

Grier speculates that as Tyson evaluates its assets, Pasco likely is identified as one that would require a large investment to stay competitive.

Grier’s observations are only speculation, but it is sobering to consider the implications of a possible decrease in competition in the already limited western Canadian market.

Steady demand for hogs and rising pork prices caused U.S. cash hog prices to rise a little over the week.

However, traders were cautious because hog supplies and animal weights tend to increase at this time of year.

Iowa-southern Minnesota hogs delivered were $78-$78.50 US per hundredweight Sept. 19, up from $77-$77.50 Sept. 12.

On a carcass basis, U.S. hogs averaged $104 per cwt. Sept. 19, up from $100.79 Sept. 12.

The U.S. pork cutout rose to $113.54 Sept. 19, up from $106.57 Sept. 12.

The estimated U.S. weekly slaughter for the week to Sept. 20 was 2.050 million, down from 2.053 million Sept. 13. Slaughter was 2.178 million last year at the same time.

The average live slaughter weight of barrows and gilts in Iowa-Minnesota two weeks ago was 281.9 pounds, down 0.2 lb. from the previous week but 11 lb. heavier than the same week last year, said the University of Missouri’s weekly hog report.

BISON STEADY The Canadian Bison Association said Grade A bulls in the desirable weight range were $4.10 Cdn per lb.

COWS LOWER Western Canadian weekly cow slaughter totalled 5,009 head, marking the first time in four weeks that slaughter fell below last year.

D1, D2 cows ranged $115 to $132 per cwt. to average $123.10, down

about $1. D3 cows ranged $100 to $119 to average $110.33, down $1.37.

Rail grade cows were steady at $235-$240.

There are more butcher bulls at commercial auctions. Still, bull prices rose to $138.94, up $1.61.

Cow exports to the United States are down 11 percent this year while bull exports are up 13 percent.

Pasture conditions in major cattle states are the best in nearly a decade, which should support the North American non-fed complex.

LIGHT FEEDERS STRONG Calf and light stocker prices soared to new highs.

The average price for 450 lb. feeder steers has been exceptionally strong for three weeks at more than $30 per cwt. more than the 550 lb. weight class average.

Steers in the 550 lb. class are fetching $23.82 more than heifers in the same weight class.

Many cow-calf producers appear to be retaining their first cut or potential seed stock females and are marketing their second and third cut heifers.

Meanwhile, most steers being marketed are first cut feeders.

This has likely contributed to the wide steer-heifer price spread.

Rain and snow in recent weeks are increasing the amount of feed quality grain, which is pressuring feed barley prices lower.

Historically low placements over the past two months should maintain feedlot interest.

Grade A heifers sold for $3.95 with sales to a high of $4.35.

U.S. CATTLE ON FEED There were 1.720 million cattle placed in U.S. feedlots in August, down three percent from the same month last year.

It was the lowest level for the month in 18 years, but analysts expected a decline of 4.5 percent.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture put the feedlot cattle supply Sept. 1 at 9.799 million head, down one percent from a year earlier and close to analysts’ expectations.

WP LIVESTOCK REPORT HOG PRICES RISE

The Chicago cattle futures markets have been volatile this month, but Canadian cash prices have been steady.

Fed cattle averaged around $163.40 per hundredweight last week in light to moderate live trade, with a slight gain in steers and heifers down about $1.

Most dressed sales were $276 per cwt. delivered.

The cash to futures basis firmed $3 to a seasonally strong -$8.34.

Weekly western Canadian fed slaughter to Sept. 13 was 36,947 head, up 11 percent over the previous week, which was shortened by Labour Day. Weekly fed cattle exports in the holiday-shortened week to Sept. 6 were 5,313 head, down 41 percent.

Alberta market-ready supplies are expected to increase modestly, while American supplies are anticipated to tighten.

There could be downward pressure on prices because still-strong retail beef prices could dampen demand.

Futures softened during the week.

Packers are expected to reduce slaughter to improve margins.

OPINION

ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE | U.S. ACTION

CRAIG’S VIEW

Producers must heed public on antibiotics to boost growth

U

nited States president Barack Obama issued an executive order last week designed to combat the problem of antibiotic resistant bacteria that threaten human health.

The beam of this spotlight will extend to agricultural use of antibiotics, which is a suspected contributor to development of the enemy bacteria. In a nutshell, antibiotic resistant bacteria could render existing treatments ineffective against human infections and illnesses.

Obama’s recent action will exert pressure on Canada to speed the phasing out of antibiotics used for growth promotion in food animals, even as Health Canada has been quietly moving in this direction.

And in the face of health concerns and consumer attention to the issue, it is time to pay heed. Use of antibiotics to increase animal growth cannot be justified if that use comes at the risk of human health.

The general public, the often-reckless driver of food animal production these days, won’t stand for the risks perceived from feeding antibiotics to animals just to make them grow faster. The benefits of cheaper and more plentiful protein don’t trump the risk that people could one day die of simple infections.

However, antibiotic resistance is a complex problem that will require complex solutions.

Complete removal of these important drugs in the veterinary realm would be immoral on an animal welfare basis and potentially disastrous on a food production basis.

Growth promotant use? No. Animal health and welfare use? Yes. The tricky part lies in balancing the latter needs against public pressure for drastic reduction in antibiotic use for animals.

There is global consensus that over-prescription and over-use of antibiotics by humans are the main sources of the problem.

The drugs’ use in animal agriculture may exacerbate it, though the science on that isn’t

completely clear.

The antibiotics most commonly used on livestock are not the same ones commonly used on people. Public Health Agency of Canada figures show less than 20 percent of the antibiotics sold for animal and pet use are also important for human treatments.

Alberta research specific to cattle use indicates less than one percent of antibiotic doses involve the types used on humans.

These figures, though low, are not insignificant, considering the toll they may take. The point is that antibiotic use in agriculture is only part of the issue. That said, agriculture bears responsibility, along with other sectors, for prudent use of antibiotics, and the industry appears to be taking it seriously.

A U.S. government report released Sept. 18 suggests the main thrusts to address the problem of antibiotic-resistant bacteria include: • providing incentives to develop new antibiotics and other therapeutics • finding alternatives to human-relevant antibiotics for livestock producers • employing greater surveillance of antibiotic use in agriculture and humans Those also make sense from a Canadian perspective. There hasn’t been a new antibiotic developed anywhere since 1987. Research, development, testing and drug approval are expensive and cumbersome.

In Canada, where antibiotic sales for animal agriculture are regulated by the federal government and their use is regulated provincially, it’s well nigh impossible to know how much is being used. That information would help determine level of risk and provide guidance if changes are needed in food animal use.

In any case, public support for use of antibiotics for growth promotion is nil. Livestock producers must heed that message.

GRAIN HANDLING | LEGISLATION REPERCUSSIONS

All eyes on how Ottawa handles challenges to railway legislation CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

I

t didn’t take long.

Just days after Parliament’s return from summer break, the government’s Fair Rail for Grain Farmer’s Act was facing its first real test : Canadian National Railway would be fined.

Transport minister Lisa Raitt made the announcement of the undisclosed fine in a statement the evening of Sept. 17. Word of the fine came just hours after CN president Claude Mongeau told a CIBC investors conference the railway hadn’t been meeting federal grain volume targets because there wasn’t enough grain left in the commercial system.

However, it remains unclear what prompted the sudden government

action. The minister’s office refuses to say how many days or weeks CN missed. The information, her office insists, is “commercially sensitive.”

Under the legislation passed at the end of June, the fine amount is up to the minister’s discretion but can be as high as $100,000 per day.

As of Sept. 22, CN had yet to be contacted by Transport Canada or the minister’s office about its looming punishment, and no information about the fine had been posted to the department’s website.

However, news of the pending fine spread like wildfire through Ottawa’s agriculture community, where the conversation continues to be dominated by issues related to grain and rail.

With concerns about this year’s crop quality, Canada’s millers are warning they’re already experiencing delays in grain shipments, which is yet another test for the government’s grain bill.

“We are not where we need to be,” National Miller’s Association president Gordon Harrison told more than 50 industry stakeholders, including a

Japanese official and representatives from both national railways, at a meeting in Ottawa Sept. 15.

Millers warned that U.S. mills’ reserve stocks still haven’t recovered from last year’s transportation bottlenecks, thanks in part to ongoing fights with the railways to ship goods south.

Shippers have said that one of the unintended consequences of the federal government’s ongoing minimum volume requirements is a favouring by the railways to ship on higher volume east or west routes, rather than smaller corridors.

Meanwhile, back on Parliament Hill, the warnings from the milling industry were overshadowed with news that Canadian Pacific Railway had filed a court challenge against the federal government.

In the suit, which was filed with the Federal Court of Appeal in August, CP alleges that changes made by the federal government to interswitching rules will cost the company more than $13 million per year in operational and administrative costs.

New regulations imposed Aug. 1

extended the interswitching radius to 160 kilometres from 30 km. Both railways have warned that the move opens them up to poaching from American rail lines.

They insist that the move will also make grain even harder to move because it can be cumbersome and difficult to co-ordinate.

CN has not said whether it plans to join the CP suit.

CN could also decide to challenge accusations regarding the pending fine in court once both parties address the matter with the Transportation Appeal Tribunal of Canada.

Few were expecting the federal government to make it through the fall sitting without at least a handful of grain transportation questions.

Still, given recent events, the issue is unlikely to dissipate anytime soon.

Raitt and agriculture minister Gerry Ritz have committed to finding, or at least mitigating, a solution to supply chain woes.

Therefore, surviving these first punitive and legal challenges is imperative, given the industry’s wariness about the strength of legislation.

With stakeholders planning on using the ongoing rail service review to push for even tougher changes, including a clearer definition of service and reciprocal penalties, all eyes will be on Ottawa’s response to these latest developments.

Poor movement across the supply chain also risks becoming an election issue, particularly given its importance in the eyes of the Conservative base.

With all three parties ramping up their election campaigns, targeting farmers with promises of better service is an easy strategy for opposition parties.

One also cannot expect it to stop creeping into conversations with international customers. If the bill fails to withstand the challenges, Canada’s fragile credibility with international importers could see further damage, while patience here at home could become even more frayed.

And no one wants that.

& OPEN FORUM GRAIN SALES | BANKRUPTCY INSURANCE

MANITOBA HOGS | REPUTATION

Farmers want better default protection

Pork sector trying to defend reputation

BY DOUG CHORNEY

I

n 2009, western Canadian farm groups submitted a report to federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz and Agriculture Canada, outlining options for a program that would provide security to producers when grain buyers defaulted on payments.

The main options were fundbased, insurance-based and bondbased programs.

It was not that there wasn’t already a form of protection in place.

The Canadian Grain Commission did operate a bonding program, in which it required grain buyers to have adequate levels of bond capital before receiving a licence permitting them to buy and sell grain. This bond security had to be set aside in case a buyer defaulted on payment to a farmer.

However, the program had significant flaws.

Producers were dissatisfied because they were often not compensated the total amount that was lost.

In addition, because feed mills were exempt from the program, farmers who sold to them were extremely vulnerable.

Grain buyers, especially the smaller ones, didn’t like the amount of capital that was tied up in bonding, and the federal government was concerned with the cost associated with administering the program.

Fast forward five years, and the program used in 2009 is not, as one would expect, a thing of the past. It is still in place because none of the options presented has been adopted.

The grain commission chose to pursue the insurance-based option, but lengthy negotiations with a major

Keystone Agricultural Producers support a fund-based insurance program that is producer owned and managed, to provide grain sales security. | FILE PHOTO insurance player were recently terminated. The reason, the CGC has indicated, is the proposal it received was not in the best interest of all stakeholders.

It is alarming that the commission has not informed the industry about what it plans to do now that the negotiations have collapsed.

Producers selling to feed mills are still particularly vulnerable, with no solution in sight.

For example, Manitoba farmers lost hundreds of thousands of dollars when Puratone filed for creditor protection several years ago.

This is an urgent issue, and Keystone Agricultural Producers is not satisfied with the vague grain commission statement that it will con-

tinue to look at other options. Producers need to know when this will happen and that it is a priority.

Some farm groups, KAP included, support a fund-based program, in which a levy on grain sales would go into a fund to be used when a producer doesn’t receive payment.

This type of producer security has been used successfully since 1985 in Ontario, where the fund is managed by a producer-industry board of directors, which also administers and adjudicates claims.

If prairie farmers were to adopt this model, the obvious advantage is that insurance premiums would not have to be paid to a third party organization whose main goal is to turn a profit.

Instead, producer levies would be set to cover administration and producer reimbursement — and that’s all.

The program would initially require a federal government guarantee, as was provided by the Ontario government. After a set amount of time — most likely five years — the fund would be robust enough to stand on its own.

Transparency is also a strong selling point for this type of program because producers would know in advance what it costs and what the coverage is.

This was a concern with the insurance-based option because farmers had no idea what it might look like and were dependent on an insurance company to make that call.

The fund-based program, on the other hand, would be producer owned and managed.

KAP supports this option but is not opposed to re-exploring the insurance option or fixing the current bonding system. The point is that it’s critical some form of action be taken immediately. With five years already gone, there is no further time to lose.

In the meantime, I urge the federal government to amend the Canada Grain Act regulations to include feed mills in the licensing and bonding system so that producers can be assured they will receive payment in the event of a default.

Farmers need federal action now so that another half a decade doesn’t slip by.

MAJOR ISSUES | TRANSPORTATION, GRAIN HANDLING

Keep an eye on big picture in making decisions HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

T

wo big-picture issues will dominate discussions this winter: the Canada Transportation Act review and the privatization of CWB. The grain logistics backlog that dominated the news last winter has now faded from the headlines. There are still lingering effects such as Canadian National Railway being singled out for not meeting the minimum movement requirement, but overall the system is no longer in crisis mode.

Hopefully, memories are long enough and the political will remains deep enough to get some structural change in railway service obligations

as the review of the Canada Transportation Act kicks into high gear.

There’s no easy way to emulate competition in a railway industry dominated by two giants that don’t really compete head to head and who face only minimal competition from trucking.

The minimum movement targets set by the federal government had a positive effect, but they also had unintended consequences. The railways concentrated on the easy corridors and the easy origins to reach the mandated movement. If mandated minimums are part of a longterm solution, how do you fix this distortion?

CWB privatization is the other big issue with Farmers of North America publicly entering the arena and seeking the support of producers.

CWB did not garner a significant market share in the past crop year, but it will have an interesting footprint with the new facilities it is building as well as the assets it has bought.

Competition in the marketplace is good for farmers, particularly if farm-

ers have some control.

However, it often isn’t the most public proposal that ends up winning the prize. Ultimately, the privatization plan may or may not include FNA. FNA certainly makes grain handling sound like a rip-off as it goes through the basis deductions that were in place over the winter. In most cases, grain companies should have had strong profits — they’re not in business to lose money — but it’s not as lucrative as it appears on the surface.

Basis deductions increase as the system becomes congested and sellers are hit with demurrage charges and have to buy their way out of contracts. A rising basis is a way to limit the inflow of grain from farmers because there’s no place for it to go.

A privatized CWB will deal with the same issues. With the proper structure, it could provide significant competition in the marketplace, but it won’t be able to work miracles.

While these major issues play out, farmer conversations this winter are more likely to focus on the profitabil-

ity of canola and whether the price can rebound. Meanwhile, prices for low quality durum and lentils have held up amazingly well. And of course, cattle prices are nothing short of astounding.

Most producers will be marketing a mix of crop qualities while moving and drying grain. They’ll worry about flooded and rutted fields, impassable roads and what the weather will hold for next year.

Fertilizer purchase decisions loom.

Many producers will be considering equipment upgrades to deal with wet conditions: everything from tractors with tracks to tillage tools and grain carts. They’ll consider next year’s crop mix and what they can do to maximize returns.

But while we deal with the dollar and cents issues that matter to our individual farms, keep an eye on the big picture issues because they will form a framework for the future.

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

ROBERT ARNASON, REPORTER

S

omeday, a PhD student in agricultural economics will write her thesis on Manitoba’s hog industry.

The paper won’t focus on marketing hogs or production economics.

Instead, it will explain how Manitoba farmers lost their social licence to raise hogs.

Only three or four hog barns have been built in Manitoba since 2007.

Over the same period, Minnesota and Iowa farmers have erected hundreds of new barns.

The Manitoba Pork Council and others blame excessive, costly and ridiculous manure management regulations for the inactivity.

Karl Kynoch, Manitoba Pork chair, said the province wants new barns to have “zero impact” on the environment, which is the definition of ridiculous, because flushing a toilet has an environmental consequence.

The province has taken a hard-line stance with the hog industry because every story, and every regulation, needs a villain.

When massive algal blooms covered Lake Winnipeg in the mid2000s and parents were scared to let their kids and dogs swim in the lake, the NDP government didn’t hesitate to lay blame. It ruthlessly pointed the finger at hog farmers and vowed to crack down on the polluters.

Scientists have since disproved, unequivocally, the link between hog manure and Lake Winnipeg water quality. Kynoch estimated that hog barns contribute .5 percent of the total phosphorus flowing into the lake.

Economics are also on the pork industry’s side.

Manitoba has two of the largest pork processing plants in Canada, the industry employs 13,000 people and pigs and pork generate more export dollars than any other industry in the province. But when it comes to a social licence to farm, facts and figures often don’t matter. Public perception is king.

Many Winnipeggers and cottage owners bought the province’s propaganda and have never forgiven hog farmers for wrecking the lake.

Manitoba Pork has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on billboards and bus ads in Winnipeg to promote the environmental sustainability of hog farming. The reactive effort may eventually restore the industry’s reputation or the province may wake up and realize it’s killing a critical industry.

In the meantime, Canadian farmers should take note. Losing the licence to farm can happen in a day. Regaining public trust can take decades.

RESEARCH THIS To the Editor: More than two weeks has passed and still Andrew Hammermeister cannot provide a single concrete example of where his group’s research

has resulted in a material benefit for Canadian organic farmers.

One of the commenters on Sean Pratt’s article puts it best when he says this $8.5 million handout from taxpayers will all go to “funding a handful of latte addicted Ph.D. bureaucrats with no known objectives.”

It’s very strange that Hammermeister can’t come up with a single example. Perhaps he doesn’t believe he has to. Meanwhile, over 80 percent of the CFIA certified-organic food sold in Canada is imported, and half of it tests positive for prohibited pesticides. Why not devote some research to problems like that?

Mischa Popoff, Greenville, Texas

PREPARE FOR ELECTION To the Editor: According to his letter in the Sept. 4 edition of the WP, Mr. (agriculture minister Gerry) Ritz is still flogging the dead horse of “the mandate.”

With farmers only about three percent of the population, this “mandate” to kill the CWB came from less than three percent of voters.

I sure hope the plumbers, electricians and apartment dwellers realized the main platform of the party they voted for was to kill the CWB. It’s also interesting that minister Ritz seems to have no problem with nonfarmers telling farmers how to market their grain.

If Mr. Ritz is so sure that “the majority of farmers have embraced the opportunities,” why didn’t he let them vote? In addition Mr. Ritz does not seem to be aware that grain prices have dropped substantially in the last while, which means that one year does not make a trend.

John Deere has recognized this fact and has laid off 1,500 workers in anticipation of lower profits in grain production and lower demand for their products.

The most disturbing aspect of Mr. Ritz’ letter is the tone. In a democracy the government works for the people, not the other way around. Mr. Ritz’s letter leaves the impression that anyone not agreeing with his viewpoint is simply not “forward thinking.”

CHAINS OF OPPRESSION To the Editor: Manitoba judge Robert Dewar has made his decision that the proposed shotgun marriages of municipal amalgamations, officiated by “Pastor Stan Struthers,” will proceed.

He could find no breach of fairness in how the government rolled out the new amalgamation law that the Association of Manitoba Municipalities (AMM) had challenged.

The term “rolled” is fitting, for that is exactly what has taken place.

The province paid no attention to the outcries of municipalities who did not wish to consecrate in this blissful arrangement, and for some they had no or very little say (over) who would be their future lifetime partner(s).

Government simply rolled over the anguished concerns that were presented. Is there a future for this kind of “coupling”, and will there be a honeymoon of sorts, or a divorce situation in the future, or even a change in government, perhaps? We’ll wait and see.

1863: President Abraham Lincoln signs the Emancipation Proclamation: liberated, independent, unconstrained, uninhibited, free.

This is something the AMM might wish to consider as Manitoba’s provincial election draws closer each day to Oct. 15 or April 16, knowing and realizing that “Democracy cannot thrive under the heavy chains of oppression.”

John Fefchak, Virden, Man.

RIGHTFULLY OURS To the Editor: I have absolutely nothing against the Farmers of North America but the concept of prairie farmers buying the CWB from the federal government is totally obscene.

The assets of the Canadian Wheat Board, which consist mainly of brand, goodwill and expertise, should belong to those people who built it — prairie grain producers. I have urged (agriculture) minister (Gerry) Ritz to turn over the CWB to western Canadian farmers to form a producer-owned and controlled prairie-wide grain handling cooperative but he just doesn’t see the light.

Every farmer in the West, even the freedom fighters who fought so hard to eliminate single desk selling, should be totally in favour of this.

OPINION I wonder if minister Ritz has ever considered that he could be wrong?

The arrogance of his letter answers that question. I would suggest the voters of the Battlefords-Lloydminster read Mr. Ritz’ response to Mr. Korneychuk and ask themselves two questions. 1) Is this the person we sent to Ottawa? 2) Shouldn’t we be sending someone w ith a more statesmanlike attitude?

In my opinion, Mr. Ritz owes Mr. Korneychuk an apology. This letter seemed like it came from some kind of dictatorial government agency and most certainly not from a statesman, a servant of the people or a minister of the crown.

It is not too early to consider who deserves our vote in the next election in a little more than a year. This would be a good time to prepare for that event.

Syngenta now offers canola seed hybrids.

When you buy them, you know you’re getting quality seed that lives up to your high expectations. And, because they’re from Syngenta, you know you’re getting a whole lot more.

inally, a politician speaks out about the positive role “nonstate” actors play in international politics.

They are “more innovative … more trusted … and much freer of the constraints of convention and bureaucracy,” Joe Clark writes in his book, How We Lead. His comments come, in part, from insights gained when he was secretary of state of external affairs from 1984-91.

The non-state organizations he refers to, while too numerous to list, include the humanitarian work of faith groups, environmental movements, service clubs, Red Cross-Red Crescent, Doctors Without Borders and other non-governmental organizations.

Clark quotes the Edelman Organization’s Annual Trust Barometer, which said that in 2012, “ ‘for the fifth year in a row, NGOs are the most trusted institution in the world,’ ranking ahead of business, media and government.”

Remember the work Canadians did to care for the boat people from Vietnam in 1979, the Ethiopian Famine of 1984-85 and the fight against apartheid in South Africa? Organizations doing this kind of work “can enlarge each other” as they work together for the common good.

My own experience confirms that these non-state organizations are effective in distant lands and bring back experienced people to make important contributions in Canada.

In pleading for the federal government to regain respect for this work, Clark writes: “Non-state actors could be even more effective if the issues they address, (and) the forwardlooking perspectives they acquire, were treated as seriously as military and terrorist issues.”

POTATOES | RESEARCH

New potato seeds could spark revolution True Potato Seed technology | Green fruit grows on potatoes and provides an alternative to seed potatoes REGINA BUREAU

BRODERICK, Sask. — Research underway in Saskatchewan is part of a worldwide revolution in potato production, say officials at Tuberosum Technologies Inc. At a recent open house at the company’s facility in Saskatchewan’s irrigation district near Broderick, TTI showcased its work with true potato seed (TPS) technology.

“True seed is basically a sexually produced seed, or the botanical seed in green tomato-like fruits on potato plants,” said company research and development manager Khyal Thakur.

The tiny fruit appears on mature potato plants, although not all current varieties produce them.

Instead of planting seed potatoes, or tubers with the eyes required to sprout a new plant, TPS uses the tiny seeds from inside these fruits.

The seed can be planted directly into the ground, grown in nurseries and then transplanted outside or grown to produce mini tubers, Thakur said.

“This tiny seed, which is not even weighing one milligram, has the potential to produce more than one pound of potatoes,” he said.

The impetus for this technology is the growing demand in the develop-

ing world.

Thirty million tonnes of potatoes were grown in developing countries in the early 1960s, but that had grown to 165 million tonnes by 2005, and production had surpassed that of the developed world, Thakur said.

Consumption of potatoes in nontraditional areas has been increasing for the last 20 years. Until the 1990s, Europe produced and consumed the most potatoes.

“In terms of production, China is now No. 1, producing 72 million tonnes of potatoes every year,” said Thakur.

“Then comes the Russian Federation and then India.”

However, growers in countries such as India can’t afford to buy seed tubers that might cost 25 or 30 cents each. They also reuse seed potatoes, which results in declining yields over time.

The International Potato Centre, headquartered in Lima, Peru, promotes TPS as an affordable way to boost production.

During his presentation, Thakur held up a small plastic bag containing 40 grams of seed. The tiny amount was enough to plant two acres.

He said farmers in northeastern India are producing 250 kilograms of seed a year, which they then sell to other farmers who either grow seed-

Thakur said using good quality seed in just one Indian province has resulted in yields more than dou-

bling from four tonnes per acre to nine.

TTI grows nearly 200 TPS hybrids and open-pollinated varieties in test plots to find those that will do well in climates around the world.

“ ON OUR FARM WE SEE LOTS OF DIFFERENT CROPS AND CONDITIONS. MACDON WINDROWERS HAVE WORKED IN THEM ALL.” Darren Van Raay, Iron Springs, AB

See more at MacDon.com/testimonials

Thakur said only varieties that will grow within the province’s 90-day season are kept. Saskatchewan’s long days give the varieties an edge when they are grown in places with shorter days.

In three years of testing, two red hybrid varieties, three yellows and two whites are showing strong consistency.

“So far we don’t really see any yield depression,” said Joel Vanderschaaf, general manager of Tuberosum Technologies.

“In fact, there’s something to be said for the hybrid vigour.”

He said the use of TPS breeding eliminates the need for expensive cleaning and storage infrastructure.

Tubers are bulky and perishable and are expensive to transport.

TPS mitigates the risks that can come with tubers, he added. The seeds are disease-free and can be stored for years if kept dry.

Vanderschaaf said 100 grams of TPS would replace about three tonnes of lower grade seed potatoes in terms of cost.

He also said potato growers have to keep about 10 percent of harvested potatoes for seed next year, which TPS also eliminates.

The potential to reduce hunger and poverty by increasing the production and consumption of potatoes is huge, he added.

FARM POLICY | FLOODING

Manitoba ranchers skeptical about flood management plan Outlet channels | Some believe proposed plan won’t prevent flooding or protect agricultural land

BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Ranchers along the shore of Lake Manitoba think the Manitoba government’s proposed outlet channels might do nothing to stop the chronic flooding that is destroying their farms.

Rather than rebuilding their spirits, the province’s $300 to $450 million plan leaves them feeling isolated and exposed.

“This does not protect our livelihood at all,” said Caron Clarke, who raises cattle along the lake near Ashern.

“What they will do is slightly reduce the level and duration of flooding.…

It’s like saying the goal of the Red River Floodway is to limit flooding to four feet of water in Winnipeg’s basements from six feet.”

Langruth rancher Tom Teichroeb said the provincial government plan won’t achieve anything to maintain the century-old cattle-raising economy around the lake if it just builds a new outflow channel without dropping water levels before the spring.

“We would have still flooded (in 2014 even if the proposed channels existed now),” said Teichroeb, whose pastures and hayland have been killed and permanently damaged by massive flooding in 2011 and 2014.

“We would still have had significant flooding. It might have been two to three inches lower.”

The Manitoba government is proposing two possible outflow channels in the area of the Fairford channel. Either of those would allow much more water to exit the lake than is now possible.

Lake Manitoba sits in a shallow pan that floods inland for kilometres if water levels rise higher than 812 feet above sea level.

Levels are now 814 feet above sea level, and thousands of acres of pasture and hayland are underwater and shorelines and vulnerable soils are being damaged.

The water level can swell suddenly when the Portage Diversion is used to redirect huge amounts of water out of the Assiniboine River and into Lake Manitoba to stop the Assiniboine flooding west of Winnipeg.

An equal amount of outflow water can’t be taken out at the Fairford dam, so water levels on the lake increase.

The Lake Manitoba-Lake St. Martin Regulation Review Committee, on which Clarke and Teichroeb sat, recommended that the lake’s level be kept between 810.5 and 811 feet in the spring.

However, in recent years it has been around 812 feet, which is the level at which flooding begins. As a result, any mass influx of water immediately

causes problems.

Teichroeb said the province’s plan to build increased outflow capacity is good, but it does almost nothing for ranchers if the outflow can’t occur quickly enough to stop the flooding.

To work, the new channels need to be matched with a commitment to keep spring lake levels to below 811 feet.

“If they have a renewed commitment to maintaining the lake at a much, much lower level in the spring, if they have those permanent channels available, then it may suffice,” said Teichroeb.

“It can’t start at 812.”

Manitoba infrastructure minister Steve Ashton has said either of the channels should be able to control water level surges enough to protect residential homes and cottages around the lake from future floods. A once-in-200 year flood would probably reach only 815 feet rather than the 2011 levels of 817 feet.

He said most of the problems encountered in 2011 should be eliminated by building dikes and raising homes and cottages. Much of this work has already been done.

However, he said preventing widespread farmland flooding is not the focus of the efforts.

“Obviously, when it comes to flood mitigation, the primary goal is to protect homes,” Ashton said during a Sept. 18 news conference.

However, he said agricultural land would benefit from the increased outflow capabilities of a new channel.

“Everyone will benefit,” he said.

“Anyone around that lake will see a lower level once this is completed.…

There is some benefit, but the real benefit is obviously to people and (non-agricultural) property.”

However, the perception that pasture and grazing land is a secondary concern makes ranchers like Clarke

and Teichroeb feel neglected and unprotected from the ongoing problems caused by the frequent use of the Portage Diversion.

For them, protecting their houses is pointless if they lose their pastures, have to buy imported hay and sell their cows. They won’t be living there any longer if they keep getting flooded.

Teichroeb said avoiding house damage doesn’t mean much to him when his cattle have no feed.

“I’d rather live in a shack or an old grain barn with a heater if they could guarantee that I would have an income.”

• In general, white chickens lay white eggs and brown chickens lay brown eggs. Nutritional value of the eggs is the same.

• There are no nutritional differences between organic eggs and regular eggs.

• A fresh egg in its shell will sink in water. An older egg will float.

• Hens fed wheat-based diets will produce eggs with light yellow yolks. Hens fed corn or alfalfabased diets will produce eggs with dark yellow yolks.

• Older eggs are easier to peel when hard boiled.

• The white, ropey strands in eggs are called chalazae. They anchor the yolk in the centre of the white.

MOSSLEIGH, Alta. — Natural chicken behaviour includes perching, nesting and scratching.

One of the eight Alberta egg operations that allows for that behaviour within a caged system op ene d its doors to the public and media Sept. 9.

River Bend Hutterite Colony north of Mossleigh has what is called an enriched system of egg production in its barn, which was built in 2012 and houses 11,000 laying hens.

It p u t s t h e c o l o n y s o m e w hat ahead of the curve because under Egg Farmers of Alberta policy, no new barns will be built using conventional battery cages as of Jan. 1, 2015.

There are 22 birds per cage in the River Bend barn, which allows each bird a required minimum of 116 sq. inches.

Colony egg manager Walter Decker, who has been in the egg business for 16 years, said he sees a difference between the enriched system and

the former conventional one.

“It’s easier on the birds. The birds are happier with this system,” he said.

“We can definitely see that they’re better feathered. They keep their feathers better. As far as the health of the bird goes, the welfare, they’re a happier bird.”

The cages, in a tiered arrangement four levels high, each have low-level perches, a blocked-off area for egg laying and a scratching area near the front-mounted feeders. The barn has computerized temperature, humidity and lighting controls.

Even with that technological help, Decker said the enriched system has its challenges.

“It takes better management to run this system successfully than it does a conventional system,” he said.

“When you have bigger groups of birds, there’s more challenges with cannibalism, there’s more competition and you have to make sure the feed and water, everything is just on the button.”

He said egg production levels are similar to those in conventional cage systems, but there is a higher per-

centage of egg breakage because the eggs have further to roll in the larger cage.

Decker said the per day production in his barn is 97 percent, which means almost every chicken lays one egg a day.

EFA chair Susan Schafers said the p rov i n c e’s 1 5 6 e g g p ro d u c i n g operations are aware of food companies’ shift to using eggs from “cage-free” systems, a reference to battery cages that have three to 10 birds per cage with a minimum 67 sq. inches each.

The policy that moves away from those types of systems was developed over time, said Schafers, who has a free-run system on her own farm.

“It’s about embracing all the new types of housing systems — the loose housing systems, the aviaries, the organic style where you have free run, free range systems,” she said.

“We’re really trying to get producers to look at options that are the best fit for their operation.”

HENS AND HOUSING

Egg promotion exploits misconceptions: producers

Egg Producers of Alberta has decreed that as of Jan. 1, 2015 no new barns will be built in the province using conventional cage systems. What do the different terms for hen housing mean?

Most chickens receive vegetarian rations and they are omnivores

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Fast food chain A&W has a new advertising promotion guaranteeing its eggs “come from hens fed a vegetarian diet without animal byproducts.”

It is an easy claim to make in Alberta, said Egg Farmers of Alberta chair Susan Schafers.

“The vast majority of the diets are all grain-based diets,” she said during a Sept. 9 egg farm tour.

A meat-based byproduct is sometimes fed when the ration requires more protein for chicken’s nutritional needs, but the practice is not common.

“I don’t know any producers who feed that, and we are 150 some producers,” said Schafers.

Chickens are natural meat eaters and require a certain amount of protein to maintain health, according to Egg Farmers of Canada data.

Meat-based products in feed are federally regulated, and most egg producers work with nutritionists to develop diets for their hens.

It is illegal in Canada to give steroids to laying hens.

An A&W campaign promoting “better beef,” which the company said is raised without the use of hormones or steroids, raised the ire of some cattle producers. They objected to the inference that conventionally raised beef is inferior.

Schafers said the egg campaign runs along the same lines.

“In general, the A&W campaign is building on the beef campaign, where there’s some misconceptions about how food is produced in this country.”

Conventional: A cage-based system with three to 10 birds per cage and a minimum 67 sq. inches per bird. Advantages include low mortality due to pecking and other aggressive behaviour, clean eggs and low disease levels. Disadvantages include few options for natural behaviours and reduced bone strength.

Free run: A cage-free system, in a barn or aviary, with a minimum of 178 sq. inches per bird, that allows free movement with perches, litter and nest boxes. Advantages include birds’ ability to exhibit natural behaviour and better bone strength.

Disadvantages include higher mortality because of pecking and aggression, more parasites and dirtier eggs.

Furnished or enriched: A cage-based system with 20 to 60 birds per cage and a minimum 116 sq. inches per bird. Advantages include birds’ ability to nest, perch and scratch, more floor space and height and low disease levels.

Disadvantages include more cannibalism and aggression, more cracked eggs and more bone fractures.

Free range: A cage-free system, in a barn or aviary, with a minimum of 178 sq. inches per bird, that allows free movement inside as well as outdoor access. Advantages include birds’ ability to exhibit natural behaviour and better bone strength.

Disadvantages include risk of predation, mortality from cannibalism and pecking, more bone breaks and dirty eggs.

» CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE Schafers said research has provided more and better information on chicken production and welfare, which when combined with improved cage technology led to the EFA’s new policy. “(Egg producers) are looking forward to embracing change,” she said.

“Many of the producers spend a lot of time researching, touring other barns, tr ying to make sure that they’ve got the right thing.”

Modifying or building a new poultry barn is an expensive proposition, and the selected system is expected to last for 20 years or more.

Decker didn’t reveal how much the River Bend barn cost but said it was a major expense.

“So far we have not been able to claim any of that back, but it’s a joy seeing the birds doing what they do,” he said. “There’s lots of benefits.”

INDIAN HEAD | TREE RESEARCH CENTRE

Sask. shelter belt centre strife stresses operator Political turmoil | HELP International says it has been poorly treated by federal workers, residents and media after leasing the former centre

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Rodney Sidloski says his attempts this summer to obtain a contract to operate the former federal shelter belt centre at Indian Head, Sask., have been like being at war.

The chief executive officer of HELP International, which has a lease to operate the centre until Oct. 31, said he has felt under attack by federal workers, former federal workers, local residents and media.

“It compares to the vileness of slum lords when we were building schools

and houses in Nairobi,” said the former international aid worker.

He said the difference is that while Nairobi turned murderous, the warfare he faced in Indian Head has been political.

“They try to destroy you and shred you and sink your organization in every way they can,” he said.

Sidloski said agroforestry research workers, who still work out of the centre, tried to maintain control of the facility, even though they are being moved to the research farm several kilometres away.

He alleged they didn’t give him and

his workers access to machinery and facilities that were supposed to be included in the lease.

“There were about 20 specific examples where they restricted land, even to get cuttings from, and said we could not have access to those lands,” he said.

“All the taxpayer money that developed all the hybrid poplar varieties, millions and millions of dollars was put into that, and there were no hybrid poplars at the centre farms.

They decommissioned those fields and said (I) couldn’t have access to get cuttings, meaning that was it for hybrid poplars.”

By the time HELP was able to take the cuttings, it was too late and many died, he added.

Trees had to be bought from other provinces.

Sidloski said he wasn’t able to access machinery needed to pull trees, so the work had to be done by hand, but then reporters were told he didn’t have enough labour.

He and his workers received access to a critical shade house only on Aug. 1, he added.

A water line break reported in August still hadn’t been repaired after three weeks, yet his offer of assistance

to find parts went unanswered, he said. “Those are the kinds of nonsense that made us come to a decision to pay the rent of $6,000 a month at the centre and hardly set foot on it,” Sidloski said. “We said we simply cannot operate while government is on that site, antagonistic government that are taking our pictures and just doing everything possible to make it not viable.”

Sidloski said he had enough when the union representing federal workers provided false information to media about HELP employees’ working and living conditions and others said HELP was letting the property go to weeds.

He recently received a small out-ofcourt settlement and a public retraction of comments from the Public Service Alliance of Canada.

Fabian Murphy, first national executive vice-president of the PSAC agriculture union, had been quoted as saying the workers were employed in “near slave conditions” and lived in converted greenhouses.

“I am informed that your organization operates and provides conditions that are typical to that of established Canadian volunteer charitable organizations,” Murphy wrote in an apology letter to Sidloski.

“Specifically, I have now been informed that your interns live in modern housing and never at any time for any period lived in greenhouses nor converted greenhouses.”

Sidloski said he might still pursue action against other individuals.

He also said that even though the property is weedy, the trees are growing well.

Sidloski said HELP is being recognized for its ideas such as building floating nurseries and bunching poorer quality trees to help them grow faster and stronger.

He said SaskPower is giving themcontracts to plant tens of thousands of trees to reverse salinity on farms.

Planting trees in shallow ponds and at high density rates has proven to be successful, he added, and the stock that had been depleted at Indian Head is being rebuilt.

He doesn’t yet know if HELP’s lease will be renewed. A local First Nation had expressed interest in the centre.

The federal agriculture department said in an emailed statement that discussions with Carry the Kettle First Nation are ongoing.

When asked about the actions of federal employees at the centre, the department statement said: “Access to facilities and equipment is clearly laid out in the lease agreement signed by Mr. Sidloski. All equipment and facility (sic) under the signed lease has been made available to HELP International and AAFC collaborated as much as possible within the guidelines of the Government of Canada divestiture process.”

Meanwhile, Sidloski said a fall distribution program is underway until mid-October, and a fall lift will ensure stock for spring orders.

METABOLIC DISEASE | PROTEIN BUILDUP

Bike trip raises awareness of PKU Diet restrictions | The disease prevents the breakdown of proteins

HOW IS PKU TREATED?

BY KAREN BRIERE

• Provide necessary alternative to natural protein through medical formula.

• Reduce phenylalanine intake through low PHE diet.

REGINA BUREAU

Most parents don’t worry about the routine neonatal heel prick that takes blood samples from their newborns.

Kevin Dube of Kitchener, Ont., recalls being told not to worr y because the tests are almost always negative. For his children, they were.

But when his brother-in-law and his wife had their baby, Avery, a year ago, she tested positive for the rare phenylketonuria or PKU. Dube said his family knew little about the condition and he was alarmed by the cost of the special formula Avery required.

“Almost everybody does not know what it is,” he said.

PKU is an inherited metabolic disease that, without proper treatment, can result in mental handicaps or other neurological problems. These people are missing an amino acid necessary to break down protein in food.

The amino acid, called phenylalanine, or PHE, can’t be processed, so it builds up. If left untreated, it can cause brain damage ranging from mild to severe.

It affects one in 12,000 to 15,000 North American babies each year or about 300 new cases annually, according to the Canadian PKU and Allied Disorders Inc. PKU is an autosomal recessive trait, meaning both parents must be carriers of the gene. Upon conception, there is a one-in-four chance the baby will be affected.

Early diagnosis, ideally seven to 10 days after birth, allows immediate treatment to prevent mental handicaps.

The treatment is a strict diet. This

• Periodic monitoring of blood PHE levels.

HOW OFTEN ARE CHILDREN WITH PKU BORN? PKU occurs with a frequency of one in 12,000 newborns in North America. This accounts for about 300 new cases each year.

means no meat, fish, poultry, milk, eggs, cheese, ice cream, legumes, nuts or the many products containing regular flour.

To raise awareness and money for the little-known disease and to help create a community for those affected, Dube decided to bike across Canada. The self-described average cyclist dipped his bike in the Pacific Ocean in Victoria June 7 and pedalled his way to Newfoundland by midAugust.

At a Regina barbecue hosted by agriculture minister Lyle Stewart and his wife, Linda, Dube met with families affected by PKU. That’s where his fundraising goal of $25,000 was exceeded.

The Stewarts’ involvement stems from the diagnosis of their grand-

daughter, Liberty, who is now two.

Her mother, Alison Sargent, said Liberty has been treated since she was 10 days old. Weekly blood work is done to check PHE levels.

“She eats mostly fruits and vegetables and her medical food,” Sargent said.

This includes specially ordered pastas and breads, which are covered by health services in Ontario where the family lives.

“She’s doing great. She’s right on the growth curve,” Sargent said.

Liberty’s food must be constantly monitored. The Feruglio family of Regina knows that all too well. John and Kim’s daughter, Amy, is the youngest of their three children and was diagnosed at three days of age.

She is now 18 and heading off to

university. John said the cost of the special formula and food a PKU child requires is prohibitive.

“I was very lucky because my work (health plan) covered it,” he said.

Travelling involved taking a cooler of Amy’s food and a doctor’s letter about its medical necessity.

“A lot of places are very accommodating,” John said.

Local restaurants boil a different pot of water for her pasta, for example.

Kim said the entire family ended up eating more fruits and vegetables as a result of Amy’s diagnosis.

Amy, who is planning to study education at the University of Regina, said she doesn’t know how to eat any differently.

“I feel fine most of the time,” she said.

The Feruglios, Sargents and Dubes

all hope that drawing attention to the rare disease will lead to more research.

The complicated and restricted diet has been used as treatment for about 50 years and coverage varies by province.

“One of these times a pill or a needle will come along,” John Feruglio said.

About a year ago, Saskatchewan joined Ontario in approving Kuvan, a drug that lowers blood PHE levels, for reimbursement.

However, Dube noted it would cost about $80,000 per year for the average person.

“Our hope is that Avery can grow up and have access to whatever she needs,” said Dube, who raised $60,000 during his ride.

Canadian grown super

DOROTHY SANDERCOCK

W

ild forms of the super food barley may have been harvested as early as 17000 BC. The fourth largest crop grown in Canada today was also used in beer making as far back as 3200 BC. Why is barley a super food?

Barley has two health claims to make: one from Health Canada and one from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Both are based on research findings that show the soluble fibre in barley called beta glucan helps reduce cholesterol.

It’s found in all cereal grains but is particularly rich in barley and oats.

Soluble fibre also aids in controlling blood sugar levels, making it a great choice for diabetics or those trying to lose weight.

Barley is high in insoluble fibre that promotes healthy digestion and contains protein and B vitamins.

Barley Cooking Tips Barley has a slightly nutty flavor. It can take on the flavor of the liquid it is cooked in so for a savoury flavour, use stock, but use water for a neutral flavour. For a sweeter note, add fruit juice to the water.

The ratio of cooking liquid to barley can vary from three parts liquid to one part barley. If you are using the cooked barley in a salad or side dish and want a chewier texture, use two parts liquid. If you want a softer texture for a stew or soup, use three parts liquid.

Cooked barley will continue to absorb liquid after cooking. If you use barley in a soup or stew and there are leftovers, they will thicken so you may need to add additional stock or water when reheating the dish.

You can add a little oil to the cooking water to prevent foaming.

Stovetop: In a saucepan, combine liquid and barley. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer until barley is cooked to desired texture, about 40 to 55 minutes.

Oven simmer: In a casserole or Dutch oven, combine liquid and barley. Bake at 350 F (180 C) for one to 1 1/2 hours.

Rice cooker: Add two cups (500 mL) liquid and one cup (250 mL) barley to rice cooker and cook.

After cooking, you can rinse barley in boiling water and drain thoroughly to remove surface starch to keep grains from sticking together.

The inspiration for this article is based on a new cookbook published by Touchwood Edition in co-operation with Alberta Barley: Go Barley Modern Recipes for an Ancient Grain.

Home economists Pat Inglis and Linda Whitworth developed and tested recipes for the cookbook.

Dorothy Sandercock is a home economist in the agrifood trade and former greenhouse grower from Lloydminster, Sask. She writes a blog at http:// prairiekitchencompanion.blogspot.ca.

TYPES OF BARLEY

» Hulless barley: Many varieties

of barley have a tough outer hull covering the seed, which must be removed before being consumed. Hulless barley has such a loose outer hull that it generally falls off during harvesting. Hulless barley is a whole grain because it has all the bran and germ.

» Pearl and pot barley: This type

of barley has been polished to remove some or all of the bran layer along with the hull.

If it is lightly pearled, the seed will be a tan colour. If it is heavily polished, the seed will be smaller and white in colour. Technically, pearl and pot barley are not considered a whole grain because the bran is removed. However, fibre in barley is distributed through the kernel so pearl and pot barley still contains a lot of fibre.

» Barley grits: Similar to steel

cut oats, barley grits are kernels split in several pieces.

Grits from hulless barley are considered whole grain.

» Barley flakes: Think rolled oats.

They are created by steaming, rolling and drying barley kernels.

» Barley flour: One pound (500 g)

of hulless barley makes about 2 3/4 cups (675 mL) of flour.

Barley flour has a coarse texture and nutty flavour that works well in hearty baked goods like spice cake, molasses cookies or artisan breads. You can try it by replacing the all purpose flour in your baked recipes with onequarter to one-half barley flour.

Barley flour does contain gluten however, but not as much as wheat flour. To make bread that will rise properly, barley flour is usually blended with wheat flour. This flour does have a shorter shelf life so store it in the refrigerator or freezer.

CENTENARIAN | CELEBRATION

Donated painting enshrines RCMP legacy TEAM RESOURCES

BETTY ANN DEOBALD, BSHEc

Family donates historic painting, playing cards

O

ur family gathered to honour my aunt Mary Sykes’s 100th birthday last month. Her

nephew, Doug Wilson, and his wife, Pat, of Stouffville, Ont., donated an original Rex Woods painting to the RCMP Heritage Centre in Regina, Sask., to mark the birthday and honour his family’s farm roots in Saskatchewan.

Wilson was the president of the Canadian division of the International Playing Cards Company, which commissioned the painting of an RCMP member and his horse in 1942 in addition to a painting of a marching RCMP member. Wilson retrieved the painting after the Ontario card plant shut down.

Wilson also donated an unopened set of the cards printed for Canada’s centennial in 1967.

As a boy in 1955, Wilson became enamoured with the RCMP after touring the Regina RCMP Museum and training academy with the Sykes family.

Woods, who was born in England in 1902, has often been referred to as Canada’s Norman Rockwell. The Macdonald’s Lassie on the Macdonald’s Export A cigarettes is among his better known pieces.

He was an illustrator for Maclean’s magazine and he recreated the Fathers of Confederation painting that was destroyed in the Parliament Building fire of 1916. It adorns the Centre Block of the House of Commons in Ottawa.

Sykes parents, Fredrick and Willetta

Wilson, moved to the Regina area from Ontario to join extended family already there.

ON THE FARM | NATURAL BEEF

Couple enjoys community, rural lifestyle Way of the future | The Grykuliaks choose to raise natural beef for the price premium John Grykuliak checks cattle at his farm near Myrnam, Alta. |

BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

MYRNAM, Alta. — Kim Grykuliak revels in the simple life on her Spring Creek cattle farm.

“It’s a good life, especially for raising a family,” she said.

“I work every day and do jobs. The kids are with me and we’re running around. We can play with the kittens and puppies. It’s simple. It’s nice to have calm.”

This warm day, her youngest children, Avery, 6, and Owen, 4, play with their newest toy, an inflatable slide and pool just steps from a jungle gym and playhouse.

Wintertime is a little less idyllic for Kim, who was raised in Sherwood Park, Alta., trained as a dental assistant, married her farmer husband, John, and moved to his 107-year-old family farm.

“Winter is hard. I feel isolated,” she said.

Over the years, she’s bonded with John’s friends in the area and spends time camping with them each year at local lakes.

She makes time to ride some of their 10 horses, scrapbook, serve on the gymnastics club board and drive her three children to school in St. Paul.

By implementing management practices that make the 225 head commercial cow-calf herd largely self-sufficient, John also makes time to volunteer for the local fire brigade and help with son Brodie’s high school football team.

The Grykuliaks own 14 quarters of land and rent another six, growing feed, canola, barley, wheat and oats.

They rely on a natural spring creek as their cattle’s water source, calve out in April on stockpiled grass and avoid densely stocking their pastures.

Swath grazing and grazing standing corn are also used to extend the season for cattle.

“That lightens the workload,” John said.

“We try not to hands-on feed the cows in the winter, but let them do the work.”

Kim and John have chosen to produce natural beef, avoiding the use of hormones or antibiotics.

“We were eating that ourselves, we feel it’s the way of the future, a better product, better prices,” said Kim. “It’s something we can be proud of.”

Added John: “It’s extra money, and Kim likes the part of us offering something healthy.”

In 2 0 0 7 , No r t h l a n d s a n d t h e Alberta Motor Association rewarded the Grykuliaks’ community service and farming expertise with a

Farm Family Award.

John’s grandparents, John and Wasylna Grykuliak, came here from Ukraine in 1907, later passing the reins to Peter and Olga Grykuliak.

“They lived in a dirt house in the bank of the creek until they built their house,” he said.

Today, John and Kim get help with

chores from Brodie when he’s not participating in competitive sports, which range from hockey to rodeo.

The couple said they encourage their children to pursue post-secondary training but also support their decision to return home.

“We’ll be ready if any of the kids want to farm,” said Kim.

Kim Grykuliak enjoys family time with her children, Owen and Avery.

RIMFIRE RIFLE | SEMI-AUTOMATIC

Marlin 795 lightweight, inexpensive, ideal for beginners OUTDOOR PURSUITS

With plenty of options to control volunteer canola, it’s easier than ever to include Genuity® Roundup Ready® canola and Genuity® Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybeans in your rotation.

YOU CAN ROTATE

he Marlin Model 795 is a semiautomatic rimfire rifle manufactured in the United States.

It is chambered for .22 long rifle cartridges fed by a removable magazine. The nickel-plated stock magazine holds 10 shots.

The firearm has an 18 inch barrel with a 1:16 rifling twist rate in either blued or stainless finishes, synthetic stock with checkering, sling studs and adjustable open sights.

The receiver is grooved for a scope mount.

The right-handed action ejects to the side, the bolt stays open after the last cartridge is spent and has a crossbolt safety. The rifle has a total length of 37 inches and weighs about 4.5 pounds.

The Marlin Model 795 is a reliable, lightweight rimfire rifle. Loading and operating the rifle is simple. The accuracy of the Marlin Model 795 is impressive for its relatively low price.

The precision of the action and barrel made for excellent repeatability on shots with little deviation. The ejection and loading of hundreds of cartridges was flawless.

Maintenance requirements are low, and effectively cleaning it required little effort.

The butt stock comb of the Marlin Model 795 seems designed specifically for shooting with open sights.

The comb feels short when shooting with a scope. A cheek pad or rest for the butt stock may be required when shooting with a scope, depending on the shooter. The trigger feels a little heavy but manageable.

There is little in the way of aftermarket accessories designed specifically for the Marlin Model 795. This will not be a troublesome point for shooters who want a semiautomatic rimfire rifle that is reasonably accurate and reliable out of the box.

However, the lack of after-market accessories will be a deterrent for those interested in building a custom rifle. One can certainly add generic accessories to the firearm without any problem, such as a bipod, scope and sling.

The Marlin Model 795 is an excellent rifle for beginning shooters and a good firearm for small vermin such as gophers and rabbits around the acreage or farm.

The .22 LR chambering makes finding ammunition generally easy and inexpensive.

I used this rimfire rifle to educate my son on how to safely handle firearms and treat them with respect. Its performance and reliability was excellent for helping a new shooter develop good shooting fundamentals and gain confidence.

It is good value for a semiautomatic rimfire rifle at around $180 for the base model.

MARLIN FACTS • Founder John M. Marlin opened his first store in New Haven, Connecticut, in 1870.

• The company’s lever action 22 repeater, now called model 39, was a favourite among exhibition shooters of the late 1800s, including Annie Oakley.

• The company developed the Colt Browning machine gun and became one of the largest machine gun makers in the world during the First World War. • Marlin Firearms was bought by Remington in 2007.

Bean cutworm threatens Ontario corn Weather also a concern | Cool temperatures in July and August have delayed maturity, and lodging could pose a problem

BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

ZURICH, Ont. — It’s going to take spectacular fall weather to finish Ontario’s grain corn crop.

Sixty percent of the 1.9 million acres that were planted this spring is at risk.

“To me there’s no point of worrying about this, but it’s going to be a worse than 2009,” said Mike Nuttall, a private agronomist in the province.

“I’m concerned about the test weight and I’m concerned about the fill.”

Nuttall, who was speaking at a Farm for Profit field day near Zurich, pointed to Ontario’s seed corn crop as an indicator. Harvest usually begins around Sept. 15, but this year it’s about two weeks behind.

Nuttall and other agronomists, including Greg Stewart, a corn specialist with Ontario’s agriculture ministry, said sunshine and warm weather are what’s needed, at least until mid-October.

The 2009 growing season was cooler, but there was an important difference: most of the crop was planted in a timely fashion in April, Stewart said.

This year, thanks to repeated rain delays, more than half the field corn was planted in late May or early June.

The situation was further complicated by unusually cool temperatures in July and the first half of August.

“It’s going to be hard for the lateplanted corn to put weight on and finish, especially the stuff that decided not to pollinate until the third week of August,” Nuttall said.

The worse case scenario would be a killing frost before the end of September.

Stewart said corn can take a light frost, and leaves can even be burned without completely stopping the plant’s metabolism. However, the plant’s ability to move energy into the cob ends if the stalk temperature drops to -2 C. Probably the best growers can hope for are above average temperatures

Agronomist Mike Nuttall said the late harvest is raising development and frost concerns. and the absence of a killing frost until Thanksgiving.

Even then, it’s unlikely the entire crop will reach the crucial black layer stage, which is full maturity.

“We would consider ourselves absolutely fortunate if we’re able to get most of this crop finished,” Stewart said.

Nuttall said anthracnose stalk rot has also been a problem, which increases the likelihood of lodging.

As a result, growers thinking about delaying their harvest until spring to reduce drying costs would be running a huge risk.

Anthracnose can also stop the plant from drying down properly, Nuttall said.

“If all that moisture has to exit through the husk, can you imagine how much sweaty corn, how much mouldy corn, we’ll have?”

He said the western bean cutworm has also been a problem on sandy soils.

The insect usually enters cobs by chewing through the husk near the midpoint of the cob, but this year, it’s being found at the cob tip.

Nuttall said this year’s unusual weather led to corn silk remaining green for an extended period. The pests likely entered the cobs at their tip by devouring the silk, he speculated.

POLYETHYLENE | BALE WRAP

Ontario farmer diversifies with plastic recycling equipment Group helping to nurture new farms »

BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

CLINTON, Ont. — An Ontario farmer’s interest in a biomass crop led to a surprising opportunity: pure plastic recycling.

Don Nott is now accumulating 1.5 million pounds of polyethylene a year, mainly in the form of bale wrap

from dairy farms.

According to the Plastics Today website, polyethylene prices recently increased to six cents per pound.

Nott said he has markets for about three million lb. but may be waiting for prices to rise further.

Polyethylene is the most common plastic in the world, used for garbage bags and other products including

bale wrap.

The type of plastic can be identified using the pull test.

“If it stretches, we’ll take it, but we don’t take field mulch. There’s more dirt on that then there is plastic,” Nott said.

He said members of the plastic i n d u s t r y a re p l e a s e d w i t h h i s product.

Young Agrarians | Support for small farm operators

BY REBECA KUROPATWA FREELANCE WRITER

Organizers of the Young Agrarians movement in Canada hope they can inspire younger people about the possibilities available to those living in the country.

“It’s really about getting a demographic of people that often have not a ton of cash flow and are learning how to farm or starting their own farm operations that really could benefit from a peer group around them,” said Sarah Dent, co-founder of the Canadian group.

The informal network does not yet have formalized membership but consists mainly of farmers in British Columbia, although it is starting to expand into areas, such as Alberta and Ontario.

“We have relationships in Quebec and Atlantic Canada … so it’s new and young farmers, a mostly 40-andunder network.”

The purpose of the group is to help farmers work with each other to overcome rural isolation, share stories, strategies and farming methods, order supplies together, share tools and connect each other to land or mentors.

Young Agrarian members own or operate two to 100 acres of land.

“We’re working to attract people interested in getting involved with farming and we provide a gateway to that by getting them connected with local farmers, get them onto farms, get them checking out our resource map and reading our blog … and get them inspired to think about farming and whether or not they really want to get into it,” said Dent.

The group did a test run with a couple of farmers in its network by connecting them with a mentor who does organic production.

“Right now, it looks like we can work with about 10 different farms,” said Dent.

“We pair them up with a mentor and, depending on what they need support with, farms might get paired up with a couple different mentors.”

The idea is to provide 40 hours of hands-on service from established mentors.

“It’s not a service that I’d say we’d offer in other par ts of Canada because there are already service providers working w ithin that milieu,” said Dent.

The group also provides an ongoing event series, which is mainly concentrated in B.C., but has had an event in Alberta.

Young Agrarians does not yet have an organized presence elsewhere in Western Canada, but Dent is aware of farmers in the region who know about the group.

“In the long run, we really hope to be an incubator that helps farmers start up, stay in and keep farming in the long-term,” said Dent.

The challenge has been to make sure it’s clean and consistent.

Nott provides free pick-up for farmers who can supply at least 10 large bags packed with the wrap. Farmers have learned about the bale project by word of mouth, and 1,200 are participating in the program.

NEWS » CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE “We’ve had super support from municipalities. They now hand out our cards to farmers who are going to landfill sites with their plastic.”

Nott has equipment on his farm that shreds, washes and processes the product.

The washing machine, based on a prototype, was made by an Amish family in New York state.

The water used for the process is recycled and filtered, and impurities are allowed to settle out. There’s also

a drying process that provides a novel use for a feed mixer.

Nott would eventually like to see the plastic he collects blended with switchgrass to produce building materials, auto parts and other composites.

It’s beginning to happen on a small scale as companies test various biomass resin blends.

The challenge for biomass growers is to process their product to the point that it meets the standards required by composite end users, he added.

Alberta targets Asian markets Boosting business | New premier sets ag department’s focus

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

The Alberta agriculture department is focusing on expanding mar-

kets and building relationships in the Asia Pacific region.

Premier Jim Prentice gave the direction Sept. 17 in his mandate letter to agriculture minister Verlyn Olson.

The top priority identified in the letter was to make sure the province’s agriculture industry is positioned for growth in international markets, focusing on the Asian Pacific Basin.

The letter also wants the government to encourage industry innovation, which would help rural Albertans make connections with international and domestic customers.

Olson said he doesn’t see the letter as a big change to his department.

Instead, it is a commitment to continue on the same path.

“It’s a re-emphasis on the importance of trade issues and markets,” said Olson.

“We take this as a re-emphasis and support of the direction we are already moving in.”

It’s our most important market, so that is where we need to see movement of our products.

BOB BARSS ALBERTA ASSOCIATION OF MUNICIPAL DISTRICTS AND COUNTIES

O-66-09/14-10238268-E

The mandate also directs Olson to ensure that consumers have confidence Alberta is an environmental steward and leader in animal health and welfare and food safety.

Included in the mandate letter was the need to create positive economic development in rural Alberta that helps producers and rural businesses succeed.

Olson said he has found during travels to rural Alberta that the No. 1 concern is a lack of good high speed internet service.

If rural areas are to be developed, a lack of good, reliable high speed internet must not be a barrier, he added.

Bob Barss, president of the Alberta Association of Municipal Districts and Counties, said the emphasis on increased trade with Asia is good if it helps sell more Alberta grain or livestock product to southeast Asia.

“It’s our most important market, so that is where we need to see movement of our products,” he said.

“We also need to make sure we look after things at home.”

Barss said he wants the provincial government to make sure the grain transportation system has fewer problems than plagued grain shipments last winter.

He and his colleagues will also work with Diana McQueen, the new municipal affairs minister, whose mandate letter focuses on completing and updating the municipal government act, which is now in a final draft.

“I hope that continues, even though we have a new minister and deputy.”

Barss has worked with four premiers and five municipal affairs ministers since he became AAMD&C president in 2010.

He said he stressed the need for continuity to help develop relationships and move projects forward to completion when rural government officials met with Prentice before he was elected leader of the Progressive Conservative party.

HERBICIDE RESISTANCE | GLYPHOSATE

Glyphosate: too much of a good thing spells doom Herbicide resistant weeds | Weed scientist says poor weed management strategies have left few options

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Stephen Powles is not optimistic about the future of glyphosate in North America.

Powles, a farmer and weed scientist at the University of Western Australia, says the herbicide might have a shorter life span than farmers imagine.

“I’m going to make here a very bold prediction: glyphosate will be driven to redundancy, on driver weeds, in large parts of (North America),” Powles said at a herbicide resistance summit held in Washington Sept. 10.

“Driver weeds are the weeds that farmers make their weed control decisions. They’re the big weeds that we all know about, and glyphosate will be driven to redundancy.”

The Weed Science Society of America organized the summit, which attracted academics, representatives of the crop protection industry, commodity group members and farmers from the United States and Canada.

The objective was to find solutions to the herbicide resistance problem, but many participants agreed with Powles: the situation will get worse before it gets better.

“I would say that most growers (in Ontario) are reactive, not proactive, in implementing herbicide resistance management strategies,” Peter Sikkema, a University of Guelph weed scientist, said during a coffee break at the conference.

Mike Owen, an Iowa State weed specialist, polled the audience in Washington about farmers’ willingness to change their weed management habits.

More than 87 percent of attendees said it’s unlikely that farmers in the U.S. and Canada will adopt diverse weed management tactics “before resistance in fields reaches levels that decrease farm profits.”

“This (informal poll) obviously speaks loudly as to the challenges that we have,” said Owen.

Five percent of soybean fields in Iowa have weeds with resistance to five herbicides, but most growers remain reluctant to take preventative action, he added.

Powles said glyphosate could become a worthless herbicide because North American farmers and the wider agricultural industry suffer from a condition he calls HOS: Herbicide Only Syndrome.

Powles said that when growers and ag consultants are faced with herbi-

Crop science companies are introducing genetically modified soybean and corn crops with tolerance for glyphosate and other herbicides, such as 2,4-D and dicamba.

Powles said this technology will

ultimately fail because growers will continue to apply glyphosate, causing increased selection pressure for glyphosate resistant weeds.

Preserving the functionality of glyphosate is a major concern, but weeds with resistance to multiple herbicides could change the game, said David Shaw, a Mississippi State University weed scientist.

“We have chosen to create a system … (that) is so simple, so economical and so convenient, that we are placing selection pressure like there never has been before,” he said.

“When we start running out of (herbicide) options … then we have to step back and rethink the entire production system.”

Powles said adopting diverse tactics to control weeds, such as weed seed destruction at harvest and strategic tillage, is the only way to maintain the long-term efficacy of glyphosate and other herbicides.

“If HOS is replaced by diversity, then herbicides can be much more sustainable.”

Ohio farmer John Davis said weed experts shouldn’t be so negative.

Farmers in his area are adopting diverse methods, such as cover crops, to combat herbicide resistance.

“The growers listen, probably more than you give them credit for,” he said.

“And they apply what you tell them, more than you give them credit for.”

Powles said there is a chance that American and Canadian farmers can preserve glyphosate.

“If you are in an area of (North America) where glyphosate still works, do everything you can to intervene because glyphosate is a one in a 100 year chemical,” he said.

“Ladies and gentlemen … try to prove (my) prediction to be wrong. I would love to see action taken, and action can still be taken in many parts of (North America).”

HERBICIDE RESISTANCE | LAND VALUE

Resistant weeds slash value of cropland

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Weed scientists and extension experts often argue that rented land exacerbates the herbicide resistance problem in America.

They say farmers who grow crops on rented land care only about immediate profits and adopt a scorched earth policy when it comes to land management.

Clyde Smith, a sales representative for United Phosphorus Inc. (UPI), an agricultural product supplier in North America, said that assumption might no longer be correct.

Smith, who attended a herbicide resistance summit held in Washington in early September, said cropland with herbicide resistant weeds generates lower rent and sells for less than land without the problem.

Consequently, landowners are becoming more vigilant about weed management.

“When I worked in extension there (Florida), we had several farms that once they had become infested with Palmer (amaranth), they lost 30 percent of their rental value for four or five years,” said Smith, who one worked as a pest management extension agent in Florida.

Smith now sells crop protection products in a broad swath of land from the U.S. South to the Midwest.

“I’ve heard, in Illinois and Missouri, of land rent being decreased and land value for them (owners) to sell it being decreased.”

Stephen Powles, an Australian farmer and weed scientist at the University of Western Australia, said a similar phenomenon occurs in his country. Cropland infested with herbicide resistant weeds will be lower than comparable land without the problem.

“At least in Australia, land value is affected … by herbicide resistance issues,” said Powles, who made a presentation at the summit.

“Farmers will always investigate when buying a farm whether the weeds are resistant. If they are, that will diminish the income that can be earned, and they will discount the value of the land.”

Land values range from $5,000 to $10,000 an acre in the U.S. Midwest, which gives landowners a massive financial interest in maintaining those values, Smith said.

Landowners become keenly interested in how renters manage weeds if herbicide resistant weeds compromise the value of cropland.

“Now there’s a impetus for me, as the landowner, to understand resistance, how to manage it and what you (the renter) are doing to grow those crops,” Smith said.

The landowner might terminate the rental agreement w ith the neglectful grower if one renter is taking action to mitigate herbicide resistance and another is applying too much glyphosate.

Smith said U.S. lending institutions are also worried about weeds, considering the amount of money at stake.

“Corporate land managers or lending facilities … they want to see a (weed) management plan,” he said.

Jill Schroeder, a weed scientist with

New Mexico State University, agreed that landowners, renters and agriculture financiers are key players in finding solutions to the expanding problem of herbicide resistance in North America.

Smith said farm lenders have definitely had an impact on herbicide resistance management in parts of the U.S. “I think it has been a game changer, especially in areas in the southeast,” he said. “As we see it (Palmer amaranth) move into in Illinois, Iowa and Kansas … I think we may see the same thing there.”

Portland State University environmental studies professor, David Ervin said farmers need to work together to prevent herbicide resistance in their region. | ROBERT ARNASON PHOTO

WASHINGTON, D.C. — It’s not easy to get people to do something that costs more and is more complicated.

It likely explains why weed scientists and farm extension personnel are struggling to convince North American farmers to reduce their dependence on glyphosate and adopt more sophisticated weed control methods.

How to accomplish that task was the primary focus of a herbicide resistance summit held in Washington in September.

“What this summit is about, this is not about reviewing the BMPs (best management practices),” said David Shaw, a weed scientist with Mississippi State University.

Shaw said a crop production system with more diverse weed management will be required to halt the rapid spread of herbicide resistance in North America.

“Today, we’re here to talk about the human dimensions. We’re not here to talk about the biology (of weeds),” he said.

“We will be taking a strong look … at the sociological and economic dimensions of herbicide resistance.”

Having people get over that hurdle of making that initial investment to protect against some kind of future risk is often hard…

Weed experts and crop production specialists have rang alarms over the last several years, telling farmers that weeds with glyphosate resistance and resistance to multiple herbicides would soon reach critical levels in North America.

Growers have largely ignored those warnings, many crop experts say.

Peter Sikkema, a University of Guelph weed scientist, said the messaging needs to shift from what might happen to the on-farm economics of managing weeds.

“I think it’s a solvable problem. I think it may take a different approach to getting us from where we are today to where we want (to be),” he said.

“Rather than this elusive idea of herbicide resistance developing on the farm, which may or not occur in the next one to 20 or 50 years … if we focus on maximizing farm profitability through integrated weed management, I think we will get greater adoption by growers.”

Robert Nichols, an agronomist and weed expert with Cotton Inc., a research and marketing company for the cotton industry, agreed that experts must emphasize the economics of herbicide resistant weeds.

In other words, farmers need to know the cost of preventing herbicide resistance compared to the cost of doing nothing.

“We need to develop hard data for people to grasp this (concept) before the fact,” Nichols said.

George Frisvold, a University of Arizona economist, said crop production advisers may want to promote herbicide resistance management as insurance.

“Doing some of these practices may cost a little more in the short run … (but) if you don’t have a diverse (weed control) program, you will eventually get resistance. Weed control (becomes) less effective, you have higher costs and lower yields.” he said.

“We see over and over again, if you don’t have diverse programs, this happens eventually.”

The tricky part is knowing how much insurance is enough, Frisvold said.

Do farmers have to completely overhaul their weed management practices, or can they make a few minor adjustments at a minimal cost?

Either way, growers will have to invest more money and time in weed control.

“Having people get over that hurdle of making that initial investment to protect against some kind of future risk is often hard … because the costs are costs you bear today and they’re certain,” he said.

“The benefits are more uncertain.

You don’t know exactly when you’re going to have a risk that’s avoided, so it’s little bit of a harder sell.”

Nichols said selling insurance isn’t an easy gig, but proving out the economics of sustainable weed management and supplying that information to growers is the way to go.

“Growers … really respond to economic incentives,” he said.

“If we can provide them with information about economic impact … we believe this would incentivize people … to try and manage ahead of the problem, rather than suffering the consequences of the problem and having to deal with it from a defensive position.”

FOREIGN REGULATIONS | WHOSE LAWS TAKE PRECEDENCE?

NATIONAL SECURITY | HEALTH CARE

Cargill suit highlights weight of foreign rules

U.S. takes action on antibiotic resistant bugs

Lawsuit over GM corn could set a precedent, say experts (Reuters) — Cargill’s lawsuit against Syngenta over losses stemming from China’s rejection of genetically modified corn demonstrates how U.S. markets are becoming increasingly subject to foreign rules, say legal experts.

Cargill sued Syngenta Sept. 12 in Louisiana state court for “negligence” in selling U.S. farmers a GM variety that had not yet been approved for import in China.

China has rejected hundreds of thousands of tonnes of U.S. corn since November because of the presence of Agrisure Viptera, (MIR162), a GM corn variety from Syngenta that is resistant to insects.

“I’m sure it will spur controversy in the U.S. from folks who think that U.S. companies shouldn’t have to comply with the laws of other countries, in the U.S.,” said Andrew Torrance, a biotechnology law professor at the University of Kansas.

Torrance said the lawsuit could reflect economic power shifting away from the United States.

Legal experts said that while similar case law was slim, foreign regulations could not be ignored in cases that involved domestic courts and companies. This is in part because there are no globally harmonized rules governing GMOs. “This case is really about whether Chinese regulatory decisions can bar innovation in American agriculture,” said Eric Olson, a Denver attorney who worked on litigation over GM rice that concluded in 2011 with Bayer settling for $750 million.

“The U.S. government has approved this product as safe and effective for use by American farmers, and that should end the inquiry.”

Olson said it was like being told you could not buy an iPhone 6 in the United States because China had not gotten around to approving it.

In the rice litigation, 11,000 U.S. farmers accused Bayer’s modified rice of tainting their crops and sending export values plummeting.

“Juries were clear in that case: Bayer was liable for farmers’ damages,” said Adam Levitt, an attorney from Chicago.

“It comes down to who is responsible for the irresponsible handling of unapproved genetically modified crops.”

He said the rice litigation indicated that export to foreign markets was now an important consideration in how U.S. producers and traders must behave.

The legal experts said the key in the Cargill case would be to determine whether a seed maker owed the grain trader any duty to ensure its products had foreign approval before releasing them in the U.S., where they already had approval, as was the case with MIR162.

Establishing that duty “strikes me as unusual, unless Syngenta had made some guarantees to Cargill (in a contract),” said law professor Anastasia Telesetsky of the University of Idaho.

“We’re talking about sovereign nations here.”

Cargill said it had lost $90 million as

a result of Syngenta’s actions.

Another exporter, Illinois-based Trans Coastal Supply Co., said in a separate lawsuit that it expected to lose $41 million.

Syngenta called both cases “without merit.”

Legal experts said the lawsuits could also trigger more lawsuits.

“I think we’ve seen in the past that this kind of lawsuit tends to involve everyone in the supply chain, from farmers to mills,” Olson said.

Resistance to antibiotics is costing up to $20 billion in health-care costs annually CHICAGO (Reuters) — The U.S. government will set up a task force and presidential advisory council to tackle the growing threat of antibiotic resistance to national security.

A deadline of Feb. 15 has been set for outlining specific steps to be taken, White House advisers said.

The White House announced the moves in an executive order calling on the secretaries of defence, agriculture and health and human services to establish the task force, which will advise on steps to preserve the effectiveness of the remaining medically important antibiotics available to treat humans.

“This has been a problem that has

been brewing for decades,” said Eric Lander, co-chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST).

The World Health Organization and foreign leaders have raised concerns about antibiotic resistance in bacteria.

In the United States, microbes that have mutated to be resistant to medically important antibiotics are annually linked to 23,000 deaths, two million illnesses and up to $20 billion in direct health-care costs.

PCAST outlined steps the federal government could take in a 78 page report released Sept. 18, including offering incentives to encourage

development of new antibiotics, finding alternatives to human-relevant antibiotics for use by livestock producers and greater surveillance of antibiotic use in agriculture.

The report comes days after two U.S. lawmakers called for action to rein in antibiotic use in livestock, in response to a Reuters investigation showing how top U.S. poultry companies have been administering drugs to their flocks.

Public health officials raised concerns the government’s approach will focus more on surveillance and developing drugs rather than on preventing resistance by reducing drug use in livestock and humans.

One cubic foot of floating island is estimated to have 100 to 300 sq. feet of surface area on which beneficial biofilm will grow and use phosphorus, nitrates, suspended solids and other water content.

The technology was first developed in Montana in the early 2000s by a

company called Biohaven, which has since launched 5,500 floating islands around the world.

Vandist said Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first floating island was installed in Alberta in 2008 and is still functioning at the Sam Livingston fish hatchery in Calgary. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But then, that was it,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Vandist explored the technology when looking for green solutions for pond water quality improvement.

Since then, he has worked with the province and municipal governments on research and island installation. Several floating islands have been launched in the City of Lethbridge, and Alberta Agriculture is researching their use in dugouts at two farm locations near Edmonton and Fort Saskatchewan.

Diana Bingham, on-farm stewardship co-ordinator with Alberta Agriculture, said the two-year research project will monitor the islandsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; effectiveness in removing excess nitrogen and phosphorus from the water.

Water samples are being taken regularly throughout the summer and periodically in winter to gather data, said Bingham. Results will determine whether the department will recommend use of the technology to farmers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There have been quite a few scientific studies done on these,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Not exactly in our situation, though, so thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not taking it at face value that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to work for agricultural producers in our province.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to test it out ourselves.â&#x20AC;?

Vandist said experiments are also underway at Olds College to gauge the islandsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ability to absorb heavy metals and contaminants such as those released from oilsands activity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have plants that are more suitable to absorb heavy metals. Others will take up more of the phosphates or the ammonia,â&#x20AC;? said Vandist.

The widely publicized deaths of ducks that landed on oilsands tailings ponds in 2012 illustrate another potential use of the concept, he added.

Nature works, but if we keep on polluting and not doing anything about it, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just hopeless.

ERIK VANDIST VITA WATER TECHNOLOGIES

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could cover some of the tailing ponds with those islands so that would be a safe landing place for the ducks and at the same time we could clean some of the bad stuff, the contaminants out of that tailings pond.â&#x20AC;?

The island base, called the matrix, is made from recycled, BPA-free plastic water bottles and is produced in the United States. It has holes in which plants are inserted. Their roots extend through the matrix into the water for hydroponic growth that helps remove nutrients. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Half of the floating island stays above water. The rest is underwater,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is in the water creates a biofilm, the natural bugs that are already in the water body.â&#x20AC;?

Vandist said sedges, cattails and other water-loving plants are suitable for many uses, but the islands can also be planted with annuals or other types of plants for beautification or for creating habitat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In most cases, because youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about storm water ponds and you want to reduce the cost in replanting, most people do perennials, obviously.â&#x20AC;?

Vandist estimates that floating islands have 40 different uses.

Water quality improvement is the big one, but he also cites fish, bird and insect habitat, shore protection

WATER QUALITY | HOLISTIC APPROACH

to work

Housing developer supports water project

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Sid Tams of Taber, Alta., figures water quality in southern Alberta is a billion-dollar issue.

Water is the economic lifeblood in this town in the heart of southern Alberta’s agricultural irrigation region.

Tams said he worries that deteriorating water quality could threaten the future of agriculture in general as well as that of his hometown.

He and partner John Ohler own a new housing development in Taber, where water quality became an issue within a scenic catchment pond.

They treated algal bloom with copper sulfate but weren’t satisfied with the results.

“It’s a living body of water that’s attached from the irrigation system to the river,” said Tams.

The partners didn’t like the idea of chemical solutions that would affect downstream water quality and users.

They sought alternatives.

On Sept. 5, they watched as students from Taber Christian School helped prepare and launch several floating islands in the pond.

The Biohaven units came from Vita Water Technologies of Lethbridge, and managing director Erik Vandist worked with students to establish a

science project that will involve periodic water testing to gauge the islands’ effectiveness in improving water quality.

“I think every school kid in Alberta should do it, or Western Canada or

North America, where instead of complaining about the environment, you go out there and learn what’s going on with our water,” Tams said as he watched students prepare the islands.

“This is the future of storm water.

You can’t just run it into the river.”

Cory Armfelt, Taber’s director of planning and economic development who also watched the launch, said the town supports the concept of a floating laboratory for students.

“It seems more holistic to treat water like this,” said Armfelt.

The addition of islands to other ponds in the town will depend on results from this experiment.

Floating islands were launched in a storm water pond within the City of Lethbridge in June and remained green as of Sept. 4. City officials said they expected the islands to improve water quality and enhance the appearance of the pond. | BARB GLEN PHOTO

against wave action, odour control, floating docks and beautification.

Flotation protects the island plants when water levels fluctuate, and the islands are not damaged by ice and snow, Vandist said.

There is virtually no ongoing maintenance once the islands are planted and installed. They can be any size, depending on budget. The largest one, in New Zealand, covers one acre.

Though he promotes the technology as the only distributor in Western Canada, Vandist said the islands will not provide a complete solution to water quality issues. Success depends on reducing contaminants entering the system.

“In water treatment, there is no magic bullet. It has to be a combination of many things. If you keep on contaminating, you’re kind of chasing your tail,” he said.

“When everything is in symbiosis, things work well. Nature works, but if we keep on polluting and not doing anything about it, it’s just hopeless.”

Cost varies with island size, but the basic expense is $30 per sq. foot.

Maintenance depends on the type of plants that are used and whether replanting is required. Island lifespan is unknown, but the first ones have lasted 15 years so far.

Time is the other drawback. Chemicals work quickly, but a floating island takes time to establish and function.

SASKATCHEWAN POTASH | HISTORY

Author details scoop on potash That was a big day in 1962 when the first mine opened.

It was important to Saskatchewan to recognize how valuable the resource was and what a difference it could make to this province.

Insider provides history of resource development in Saskatchewan

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Potash and politics have long been intertwined in Saskatchewan.

A recent book written by a man with a ringside seat to the industry’s development outlines the extent of that relationship.

John Burton, a former farmer, civil servant and federal MP, explains in the book the challenges involved in developing a viable potash industry following the mineral’s discovery in Saskatchewan in 1942.

The province was still reeling from the Great Depression and drought, he notes in Potash: An Inside Account of Saskatchewan’s Pink Gold, and the notion that the mineral could save it was appealing to the then-CCF government.

In 1951, Burton had just graduated

from university. Degrees in agriculture and economics led him to the Saskatchewan government’s Industrial Development Office.

“The idea was to get something to happen,” he said in an interview in his Regina home.

“They knew there was a substantial resource down underground.”

Imperial Oil made the initial discovery in the Radville area.

Naturally occurring in most Saskatchewan soil, potash fertilizer would soon be in demand by a postSecond World War world looking to increase food supply.

Burton said the government was interested in developing the industry but faced a lack of knowledge on how to proceed.

“Public ownership, complete or partial, was favoured initially, but by 1950, the social democratic govern-

ment in power had to accept the reality that only the private sector was equipped to develop the resource,” he wrote.

Three companies tried but failed to establish viable mines in the 1950s, stymied by underground flooding in water-bearing formations under high pressure. Burton said it took eight years to dig an 1,800 foot shaft at a site near Unity, which was about half-way to the potash.

“They hit the Blairmore sands and that was the end of the game,” he said.

Finally in 1962, International Minerals and Chemical Corp. began production at Esterhazy after the main shaft flooded twice and a German company was called in to help.

“That was a big day in 1962 when the first mine opened,” Burton said.

“It was important to Saskatchewan to recognize how valuable the

resource was and what a difference it could make to this province.”

Agriculture always took the economy on a roller-coaster ride, and resource development was seen as a way to stabilize it.

But two years later, Ross Thatcher’s Liberal government took office with the promise of hastening economic development.

“There was some oil and steel development that were helping, but we were still left in the dust compared to what was happening in Alberta at that time,” Burton said.

Potash development became the centerpiece of Thatcher’s campaign, and the result was 10 more mines and significant overproduction.

Some mines were in danger of closing, and the government blamed the companies for failing to manage properly, Burton said.

The government introduced prorationing, but that was hard to manage and the companies didn’t like the low production quotas.

When the NDP’s Allan Blakeney came to power in 1971, he wanted more money from the companies for provincial coffers and a look at their books. He also wanted the government to participate in the industry.

“The companies thought he was completely out to lunch,” Burton said.

“They were not prepared to tolerate or live with that at all. The oil and uranium companies had learned to work with government, but the potash companies were a different breed.”

Burton and a team of civil servants spent months working in a basement office of the Saskatchewan legislature on a plan to take over the industry.

“We worked in utmost secrecy,” he said. “None of us would enter or leave the premises at the same time.”

The plan was announced in the 1975 throne speech to gasps from the

opposition Liberals.

Burton, who sat on the board of the Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan from 1975-82, said the move to public ownership was the right one. Markets were strong and the benefits accrued to the people who owned the resource.

However, those glory days didn’t last long.

Burton said PCS began to falter under the Progressive Conservative government, which was elected in 1982, and selling it “for a song” to private interests was the beginning of the end.

Roy Romanow’s NDP government sold the province’s remaining shares in the 1990s because it needed the cash.

“The profits and benefits of potash production now are going to outside investors for the most part,” Burton said.

He has watched more recent developments through his historical lens.

He credits Saskatchewan Party premier Brad Wall for stopping the potential takeover of PotashCorp by BHP Billiton.

“I think there were probably people in the government who realized if (BHP) got PCS Inc. and the mine in Jansen, they would have overwhelming power,” Burton said.

BHP is building a conventional mine at Jansen, although it hasn’t officially been approved, and K+S is building a solution mine near Bethune. Other companies are also planning mines.

Burton said those plans, along with expansions at other mines, could once again lead to overproduction.

“Are we going to learn the lessons of history?” he said.

“There was massive overdevelopment in the ’60s, and the province paid the price.”

Burton’s book is published by University of Regina Press and is available at bookstores.

AUCTION | ANTIQUE COLLECTION

Vintage farm equipment finds eager buyers

BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

HIGHGATE, Ont. — Bidders came from as far away as Texas for what auctioneer Mike Shackelton described as the largest sale of vintage equipment in which he’s ever been involved.

About 70 John Deere tractors, in

all stages of repair and disrepair, were recently sold near this southwestern Ontario community, along with another 50 major items and 200 skids of miscellaneous items.

The day came as a relief for Ann Burns, the widow of Ray Burns. Her husband died five years ago in Montana on a trip to add yet another item

— a Waterloo Boy — to his collection.

“I guess I have mixed feelings, but this needed to happen. The tractors and equipment couldn’t stay in the barns forever, and others can get pleasure from them. On the other hand, I lost a lot of what was left of Ray,” Ann said.

Burns is remembere d for his sly sense of humour and love of

John Deeres.

Shackelton had initially estimated the bid total would reach $250,000 to $300,000, but the total was even higher.

Prices ranged from as little as $25 for a vintage seed cleaner in good condition to many thousands of dollars for some of the rare and restored tractors.

Burns amassed his collection during his service as an officer with Ontario Provincial Police and in retirement.

Ann said her family is holding on to several John Deere tractors to remember Ray. These include an AO, L, D, R and GP models and others that members of the East Kent club will restore.

FERTILIZER | INVESTORS

Small fertilizer companies shuffle ranks, look for capital Establishing mines | Companies find that investors are skeptical about how fertilizer prices will rise in the future (Reuters) — Capital-strapped small fertilizer companies in Canada are shuffling their senior executive ranks to draw investors in a period of weak prices.

Stonegate Agricom Ltd., which is developing a phosphate mine in Idaho, said chief executive officer Mark Ashcroft resigned, the latest change at the top among small players in the sector. Others that have installed new senior executives this year include Canada’s Arianne Phosphate and Karnalyte Resources Inc. Fertilizer values are rising off the floor prices reached earlier this year, but their upside looks limited, Rabobank said in a report.

Stonegate’s parting with its CEO was mutual, said co-chair Ian

McDonald, who will carry out CEO duties on an interim basis with cochair Kerry Knoll.

“Nobody’s having any parties because nobody’s happy, but there’s been no pressure here based on Mark’s performance,” McDonald said.

Stonegate stock is down nearly one-third for the year.

The company has tentatively arranged most of its financing for the low-capital, $120 million Paris Hills phosphate project, but has not yet lined up a committed, long-term buyer, which is a key condition.

Earlier this month, Arianne Phosphate, which is developing a mine in Quebec, said that Brian Kenny, an engineer by trade, had resigned as

Quite honestly, if a management team doesn’t change over, to me that’s actually a little alarming.

BRIAN OSTROFF WINDERMERE CAPITAL

CEO but would stay on as a consultant to cut capital and operating spending.

Executive chair Pierre Fitzgibbon, a former investment banking executive, took over the job of finding a strategic partner or investor to buy the company.

“I think this (stage) requires a different type of leadership,” Fitzgibbon said.

In August, Karnalyte Resources made Tom Drolet’s title as CEO permanent, dropping his acting status.

He replaced Robin Phinney, the company’s founder, in May. “My opinion is the bottom is in” fertilizer markets, Drolet said.

“But what we don’t know is the slope up, so that’s the prevailing reason why at times like this companies

say, ‘are there any changes you want to make?’ ” The company is seeking financing to build a potash mine in Saskatchewan.

“Whether you’re looking for a corporate investor or acquirer, or you are relying on the good graces of the market to finance, right now it’s definitely a tough slug,” said Brian Ostroff, managing director of Windermere Capital, which holds shares in Arianne and Stonegate.

Ostroff is also a director of Arianne.

“You can’t have a one-size-fitsall management team” for earlystage mining companies, Ostroff said.

“Quite honestly, if a management team doesn’t change over, to me that’s actually a little alarming.”

MARKETING | LOCAL FOOD

Producers, chefs partner to promote local food Culinary tourism | Events promote local produce and help to educate consumers about agriculture

BY M. CAROLYN BLACK FREELANCE WRITER

Culinary tourism, a new concept encompassing the fields of local agriculture, viticulture and aquaculture, has exploded in Ontario.

Two outdoor dining experiences in Simcoe County this summer celebrated regional tastes and Ontario heritage while also boosting the local economy and helping growers turn a profit.

An elegant dinner was served in July on the grounds of the historical military establishment Discovery Harbour in Penetanguishene, which celebrated the anniversary of the War of 1812-14 and showcased local flavours such as fresh-water smelts, wild leeks, Ontario wines and ciders and, of course, maple syrup.

Event co-ordinator Kim Masin, executive director of the Simcoe County Farm Fresh Marketing Association (SCFFMA), also planned a second event in late August called Savour Simcoe.

The July dinner was an elegant, plated event, but Savour Simcoe is more casual and has won two awards from the Ontario Culinary Tourism Alliance (OCTA).

“The day consists of tasting stations, all outdoors on the beautiful grounds at the Simcoe County Museum (near Barrie) where attendees visit food and beverage stations and not only taste delicious local food by some of our finest chefs, but they can also meet the farmers and chefs and find new places to purchase foods at farms and in restaurants and in stores,” Masin said in a news release.

Robert Reader, owner of the Explorer’s Café in Midland, has worked with grower Bart Nagel of Bulbs of Fire to create a taste for Savour Simcoe that promises “vampires beware.”

Their food sample includes a butternut squash quiche and baby greens salad, both enhanced with smoked garlic from Nagel’s Lafontaine farm.

Nagel grows almost 40 varieties of garlic and has developed a unique way to smoke it.

“It sets me apart from most other garlic growers,” he said.

He renewed his membership in SCFFMA this year because of the increased traffic to his farm that occurred after he joined the association.

“The more traffic you can drive to the farm, the less dependent you are on what other people are organizing, and that’s a good thing,” he said.

Nagel said he advises other small growers to join marketing associations.

“The (SCFFMA) food map is potentially a huge traffic driver and if you have a unique product that sets you apart, people will seek you out,” he said.

“It’s an incredible (marketing) tool.

I see people coming up my driveway with (the map) in their hands.”

Reader agreed that there are many benefits to joining a marketing association.

“Through the connections you make with local producers, you become aware of incredible ingredients that you never would have known were available,” he said.

SCFFMA’s social media reach means that growers’ brands are seen

Simcoe County Farm Fresh members put the finishing touches on dinner. | JESSICA DOLAN PHOTOS and promoted much further.

Outdoor dining and other events are a great way to “bring your product to people who already have an interest in good food and eating well,” he added.

The partnerships between local growers and chefs are key to the success of these culinary events, but marketing associations are the necessary catalyst.

Associations such as OCTA and SCFFMA give Ontario growers new ways to increase sales and form mutually beneficial partnerships with chefs, restaurateurs and accommodation providers such as bed and breakfasts.

Partnerships in Simcoe County frequently intersect: the Explorer’s Café

worked with Bulbs of Fire for Savour Simcoe and Bulbs of Fire stocks product, such as smoked garlic pepper jelly, in chef Andre Sanche’s Midland food shop Ciboulette et Cie. Sanche is also an SCFFMA member.

Ciboulette et Cie is one of the first restaurants in the Midland area to become a Certified Taste of Ontario through the OCTA program, Feast ON. Rebecca LeHeup, OCTA’s executive director, said the Feast ON designation means more support for local farms because restaurants such as Ciboulette et Cie must meet a minimum requirement of local food purchases throughout the year.

“The more restaurants buy locally, the more marketing benefit they get from us, and we’re here to increase

that procurement and help make those connections with the local growers and producers to ensure that they can actually have a viable revenue stream by selling to the local restaurants,” she said.

Both restaurants and farmers receive help educating consumers about why they should be dining at places that support Ontario producers, she added.

LeHeup said consumers who eat at places with a Feast ON designation “are getting a more authentic taste of place, they’re supporting the local economy and food security and quite frankly, it tastes better than commercial, generic fast food.”

Getting a Feast ON designation was a no-brainer for Sanche, who uses

locally sourced food in his four-yearold food shop and plans to expand this to include viticulture.

Sanche is excited about the direction his restaurant is taking, and though his current business model is lunch and take-home ready-made food, he’s planning a pilot project.

“Once a week we’ll open for dinner and, to me, it’s all about the friendship and the sharing aspect of food, and the menu will reflect that.”

Diners will order dishes meant to be shared, sit at large harvest tables, and regular patrons get to choose what the menu will include.

Sanche plans a VIP event where guests sample several beers, wines and new menu items and vote on their favourites.

FARM SHOW | BIOMASS PROCESSING

Biomass opens door for new machines Choppers, grinders, mowers | Manufacturers introduce equipment to handle feedstock for use in ethanol plants, compost or livestock bedding

BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

W O O D S T O C K , O n t . — Fa r m equipment manufacturers have been beefing up their equipment to handle biomass.

“This baler is well suited to the toughness of this material,” Glen Farris of Agco said while pointing to a Massey Ferguson 2270XD on display at Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show in Woodstock Sept. 10.

The machine, built in Hesston, Kansas, is worth about $170,000. It was baling stover, the primary feedstock to be used at three new generation ethanol plants in the U.S. Midwest.

“The first of three projects opened last week, the Poet-DSM cellulosic corn stover plant at Emmetsburg, Iowa,” Farris said.

The facility is expected to produce 20 million gallons annually.

Dupont’s 30 million gallon facility at Nevada, Iowa, is near completion, and the Spanish company Abengoa expects to be in production by year’s end at Hugonton, Kansas.

Close to a million tonnes a year of biomass will be required at the facilities, according to company website.

Farris said a two-stage conversion is involved, and C5 and C6 sugars produced from the biomass are subsequently converted into ethanol.

The removal of corn stover has been questioned from an agronomic perspective, but Farris said the practice appears to be sustainable if managed properly.

Today’s higher corn yields produce more than enough biomass to maintain soil organic matter levels, he added.

“What research has shown is when you (remove) some stover (from the field) maybe up to 50 percent, you get earlier warming in the spring, better water retention, greater microbial action and five to 10 percent more yield … but none of these studies say you should take it all.”

Farris said Agco controls close to 60 percent of the large square bale business in North America. Last year, its Massey 2270XD machines churned out about a million bales of stover.

The demonstration at the farm show also included a pass with a Hinniker flail chopper and bale handling with a Stinger 6500 bale mover.

According to the company website, the Stinger 6500 is the world’s fastest, self-propelled bale wagon. There are now four in Ontario.

The truck-like machine picks up either round or square bales of different sizes, hoisting them above the cab to the carrying rack. Up to eight, four-by-four bales can be conveyed at a time or a larger number of smaller bales.

Devereaux Farms of Seaforth, Ont., operates one of just four Stinger 6500 bale handlers in the province. The machine picks up, transports and stacks bales.

Once loaded, the bales can be stacked using a hydraulically powered device at the back of the machine.

Vermeer Canada was also at the show with its MC3300 mower, 505 Pro Baler and HG600TX Horizontal Grinder.

The grinder, designed for the lumber industry, was the most expensive piece of equipment at $800,000. It processed two big round bales of miscanthus in a few minutes.

“If it was dry we can do about a bale a minute,” Vemeer representative Garry Moffet said.

The machine is equipped with a 650 horsepower, six-cylinder Caterpillar engine along with screens for sizing.

Rob Haimes, another Vermeer rep, said consistent sizing is important, whether the biomass is used for mushroom compost, digestion, combustion or animal bedding.

Craig Drury, vice-president of operations in Eastern Canada, said that Vermeer is interested biomass, but it’s an immature market in Ontario at this point.

FARM SHOW | TILLAGE

Disc gangs dominate cover crop tillage demo Range of choices | Different soils have different tillage requirements

BY JEFFREY CARTER FOR THE WESTERN PRODUCER

WOODSTOCK, Ont. — Designs incorporating two gangs of offset discs followed by rolling harrows dominated the cover crop tillage demonstration at Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show earlier this month However, the demonstration featured a wide range of choice in terms of equipment weight, horsepower requirement, depth control, disc and bearing design and price.

Ontario agronomist Pat Lynch provided the commentary for the demonstration, which featured 20 tillage units.

“They’re all good machines,” Lynch said. “They tend to work the ground in different ways, and that’s a good thing.

Different producers have different soil conditions and crop requirements.”

Farmers within the supply management sector and those with a lot of acres to cover are more likely to be able to justify the investment, but Lynch said there are also other options.

“Many of these are too expensive for growers with, say, 200 acres, where they’d use it, but most dealers are willing to rent. These days, I think there’s more farmers renting or having a custom operator do the work.”

Lynch is big on conservation tillage, although he said there are situations where more aggressive tillage, including the moldboard plow, may be warranted. Some of the newer plow designs work to a relatively shallow depth and leave trash on top, he added.

The condition of older tillage equipment is another consideration

“It may be cheaper to use conservation tillage to eliminate the number of passes,” Lynch said. “There’s a lot of equipment out there that has as passed its best before date.”

The demonstration was conducted in Oxford loam where red clover was planted following the winter wheat harvest. Lynch said it was 14 to 16 inches tall before it was killed with a herbicide treatment and then flattened by heavy rain.

“For me, this is the way to go,” he said. “We have a million acres of wheat in Ontario, so we should have a million acres of red clover.”

Most of the disc-gang equipment featured adequate spacing to handle higher volumes of trash.

There were also str ip-tillage machines, machines with shanks designed to shatter hard pan and an AerWay unit with its patented Shattertine technology.

Among the lesser known brands were the Tulip from the Netherlands, which has captured 80 percent of the Australian conservation tillage market, and the Väderstad Carrier 500 from Sweden. The Väderstad and Tulip units featured disc gangs and rolling harrows.

Ontario brands included the Salford 2100, AerWay, Strip Cat from Horst Welding and Walco Equipment’s He-Va.

FIELD TRIALS | DATA COLLECTION

Field trials: with data in hand, it’s time to analyze PRECISELY AGRONOMY

THOM WEIR

L

ast winter, I wrote about how to set up a field trial to receive useful data when assessing a new practice on your farm (Field trial testing tells tales for on-farm agronomy, Jan. 9, 2014.)

Hopefully many of you were able to set up trials on your farm that will answer a question about the usefulness of a practice. Now is the time to gather the data from the trials.

First, let’s look at what is often described as a planning cycle. My planning cycle has five components.

First, we create a plan, which means having a simple question for which you want an answer, such as: • Does the macro-micro nutrient product I am applying with my herbicide pay?

• Does the fungicide I am spraying give me an economic benefit?

Planning also includes what field you are using for the trial and how the trial is going to be set up.

The second part of the planning cycle is implementation. This is doing what your plan had set out.

Good notes should accompany the implementation and any divergence from the plan must be noted.

The third part of the cycle is review, which includes observations you may have made of the treatments of

Field trials and test plots on the farm yield a crop of information. | FILE PHOTOS the trial during the growing season.

The collection of data is the fourth part of the planning cycle, the one that we are now entering. At this time of year, you will be harvesting the treatments. The way you are going to measure the differences in the trials should have been discussed in the planning phase.

The final part of the planning cycle is the analysis of the data and the answering of the question that was set out in the plan.

The gathering of the data can be done with various methods. Representative areas from each treatment can be harvested and weighed using a calibrated weigh wagon. This

method can be effective but it does have a number of short comings.

These include the time it takes during the busy harvest season to carry out the extra work.

It also opens up a source of bias because you or possibly a chemical representative you are working with will select the areas to harvest. This may prejudice the results purposely or subliminally and may not give a true picture of the real results.

On an even smaller scale, square metre samples can be taken and harvested. A large number of samples must be taken from all treatments and the bias factor will be even larger.

A second method of collecting data is to use the yield monitor and mapping function on your combine. This is a simple way of collecting data because there are no time restrictions or waiting for equipment.

It also removes most of the bias from harvest data. The monitor should be calibrated for the crop being harvested and the same combine and operator should be used for the different treatments.

Once collected, the analysis of the

data can begin. There are various software programs available. Some require extensive data input just to get started, while others have a less onerous threshold. We, Farmer’s Edge, have added our own, Advanced Geospatial Yield Analysis, to the market. It only requires the input of yield data to start analyzing the return on investment from each input treatment.

Tools like these make the planning phase much easier, especially if you are working with multiple inputs and many fields.

ELECTRICITY | GENERATOR

Producers can go off grid with propane system Fans and dryers | Automation means propane-fuelled generator requires less monitoring

BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

FARGO, N.D. — The late spring and wet fall have many farmers wishing for electricity to power fans and dryers at their remote bins scattered across the Prairies.

Master electrician Alan Johnson of Glyndon, Minnesota, says producers should consider propane as a viable fuel when buying generators for remote locations.

Johnson displayed one of his On Demand Electrical Power Systems (ODEPS) at the Big Iron Show in Fargo earlier this month.

With 2014 weather conditions on the northern Great Plains similar to those on the Canadian Prairies this year, his propane-fuelled portable generator trailer received attention from farmers coping with tough grain in bins far from the home yard.

However, Johnson didn’t invent ODEPS this year to meet current climatic challenges. He is into his third year selling the units to farmers in North Dakota and Minnesota, and he said economics have been the strongest driving factor.

“The power companies charge farmers whatever they want to charge, but now the power companies are competing against me. They don’t like it because I’m saving my customers a lot of money,” he said with a chuckle.

Johnson said that unlike paying for power from an electric utility company, producers who use a generator pay for electricity only when they operate the unit. The cheaper the fuel, the less they pay. When they’re not producing electricity, they don’t pay anything.

Johnson said his generator uses a high degree of automation, reducing the need for continuous monitoring.

ALAN JOHNSON ELECTRICIAN

“What I sell is a regular standby propane generator that I modify to sit out in the middle of nowhere and turn on and off as needed,” he said.

“Guys buy On Demand for grain drying fans, livestock watering tanks out in the middle of the grassland range, drain tile sump pumps, nighttime security lighting at distant sites, all kinds of things like that. I can set it up to be triggered by humidity, temperature, float level, sunset, anything. Or it can be triggered by a sensor on an electric motor, just like your electric golf cart. Step down on the pedal and it goes.”

Johnson has mainly built 10 horsepower, three-phase units. He said variable frequency drives on a lot of equipment matches up well with his generators.

Some units are installed in small metal sheds, while others go into trailers.

The trailer generators have the 124 gallon propane tank secured in an air tight closet, which is accessible only through an outside door so that no propane can escape into the generator compartment. The tank holds 100 gallons of propane, which typically runs the unit for 90 to 130 hours of generating time, depending on the workload.

“I start with a Generac propane generator that’s built in Wisconsin,” he said.

“I then modify the control circuitry to meet the needs of each customer.

The engine itself is the same, but I

Farmers considering buying John-

A lone musk ox recently attracted the attention of five caribou hunters near Nejanilini Lake in northern Manitoba, but that was just the beginning of the “lonely” musk ox’s popularity.

returned since their last sighting in the early 1800s.

Bill Watkins of Manitoba Conservation speculates that it is population pressure.

“The herd north of the border has quadrupled since 1985,” he said.

“With that increase in numbers, it’s natural for herds to spread out to accommodate all those animals.”

Watkins said the species is also

expanding northwest and west, but Manitoba just happens to be a happy accident.

Watkins said predation pressure is likely another reason the animals are moving. The Nunavut government has noticed that the increase in musk ox has caused an increase in wolves and grizzly bears.

“If you’ve got predation pressure in one part of your range, it makes good sense to up and move into another range.”

Watkins emphasized that without a proper survey, this is just speculation. However, it is a good indication of what could be going on north of the border.

Watkins confirmed that this could be the beginning of the mighty return of the musk ox, so long as proper conditions for the herd hold.

Two severe winters in a row could knock back the herds, giving the remaining animals less reason to travel far from Nunavut.

“That’s the way nature works.”

Musk ox isn’t the only species making a comeback in Manitoba. Watkins said grizzly bears, cougars, pronghorn and trumpeter swans have also crossed the borders.

Most sightings have been of juvenile males, but the breeding sites that bumped trumpeter swans from extirpated to endangered could also be happening with other species.

Watkins especially hopes this is true for musk ox.

“It’s very likely what we’ll see over the next few years is groups of one or two animals, and it will probably still be some length of time before we see a breeding group,” he said.

“But I firmly believe we will see a breeding population.”

He said it would take more than one year of breeding before musk ox would be considered a permanent resident.

“We’ll be watching very carefully to determine when it might be appropriate to lift them up to endangered.”

If the musk ox do return for good, they won’t go much further than the tree line. However, it would give ecotourism something else on which to focus.

Watkins said Churchill’s animal tourism would particularly benefit, placing the musk ox alongside polar bears and beluga whales.

He also said that if the musk ox population ever grew large enough, the species could once again be seen as a food source.

Watkins said he isn’t aware of anything in Manitoba’s habitat that would prevent musk ox from rejoining the ecosystem.

RCMP seek help in solving poisoning of 60 Manitoba honey bee colonies Disputes are more common in North Dakota where the industry is highly competitive

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

An intentional poisoning of bees has shocked many people in Manitoba’s honey production industry.

The RCMP announced in midSeptember that it wants to know who killed thousands of honey bees near Brandon after beekeeper Jason Loewen discovered 60 of his colonies had been destroyed with pesticides.

Police said the poisonings occurred between Aug. 14 and Sept.3.

Loewen, a honey producer from Steinbach, told several media outlets that another beekeeper had previously threatened to burn the hives.

The local beekeeper felt Loewen was infringing on his territory.

Loewen estimated his losses at $30,000 to $40,000 in hives and lost honey production.

Allen Campbell, Manitoba Beekeepers Association president, said disputes over hive location do occur, but intentional poisonings are extremely rare.

“It does come up … because we’re kind of a secondary type industry.

You’re kind of following the growers around and what they’ve got out for you is what you’re counting on for forage,” said Campbell, a honey producer from Dauphin, Man. “Some people definitely say, ‘oh, you’re too close to my hives.’ ” Will Nissen, president of the North Dakota Beekeepers Association, said intense battles over hive locations and territory are a common occurrence in his state.

He said intentional poisonings do happen in North Dakota but are nearly impossible to prove.

“Oh yeah. It’s quite common…. It’s happened several times.”

Campbell said Manitoba honey producers have an informal rule when it comes to hive locations. If a beekeeper has established a bee yard in a particular location, the next beekeeper should locate his hives at least a mile (1.5 kilometres) away.

“Around here, most guys generally follow the one mile rule.”

Nissen said there is a similar code of conduct in North Dakota.

“We have a gentlemen’s agreement, but there aren’t too many gentlemen left around.”

Nissen said beekeeping in North Dakota is highly competitive because there are more than 500,000 bee colonies in the state during the summer.

Most of those hives are from other states.

In comparison, there were 677,824 bee colonies across Canada last fall, according to the Canadian Association of Professional Apiculturists.

Manitoba’s bee industry is less concentrated than North Dakota, but honey producers do move hives around and some beekeepers can be territorial.

“Because they’ve been in (a) municipality all by themselves for some time, (they) might feel they have the right to keep it to themselves,” Campbell said. “(But) you can’t do that to other people.”

The bee poisoning case generated national and international coverage, as print, broadcast and digital media

79

pounced on the story.

Campbell said some of the coverage was inaccurate. Several stories connected the poisoning to the use of neonicotinoid seed treatments, which the Ontario Beekeepers’ Association blames for bee deaths and high rates of colony losses.

Earlier this month, two Ontario honey producers filed a $450 million class action lawsuit against Syngenta and Bayer Crop Science, two neonicotinoid manufacturers, for financial losses related to bee deaths, hive

losses, reduced honey production and loss of queen bees.

Campbell said the intense media coverage of that issue might have drawn journalists to the Manitoba poisoning case, but the two are unrelated.

“This was definitely a direct poisoning and a matter for the RCMP.” The RCMP is asking for the public’s help with the case. Anyone with information is asked to call Brandon RCMP at 204-726-7522 or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477.

BRUSSELS, Belgium (Reuters) — European Union officials are drawing up new measures to help food producers hit by a Russian ban on agricultural imports.

They were expected to be published soon.

In August, Moscow imposed a oneyear embargo on meat, fish, dairy, fruit and vegetables from the United States, the European Union, Canada, Australia and Norway in retaliation for western sanctions over Moscow’s involvement in the Ukraine crisis.

EU farm exports to Russia are worth $15.7 billion a year, which is 10 percent of the bloc’s agricultural sales.

The Russian embargo has affected EU products worth $7 billion, said the European Commission.

The commission is finalizing the

text and budget for a new compensation scheme following debate with representatives of the 28 member states and expects to make an announcement soon, said spokesperson Roger Waite.

In the aftermath of Russia’s ban, the commission announced $176 million in aid for producers to help them cope with a glut of fresh produce that depressed markets.

However, it suspended that plan this month after a surge in claims.

Polish farmers asked for more compensation than EU officials say the entire bloc exports to Russia in a year.

It remained unclear how much money was being disbursed under the $176 million plan. The new measures are in addition to the previous aid program.

CANADA BEEF INC. FORUM | QUALITY BEEF SHORTAGE

Costco asks producers: where’s the beef?

Retailer forced to import | Meat buyer says producers need to develop the right kind of cattle to produce AAA quality

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

TORONTO — The shrinking of the Canadian cattle herd is being felt among major retailers.

Costco Canada was the first company to exclusively sell AAA beef. The high quality product flew off shelves, but fewer cattle and a shrinking herd have made it increasingly difficult.

Consequently, products from the United States and Australia are displacing Canadian beef in Costco’s 88 Canadian stores.

That was sobering news for those attending the annual Canada Beef Inc. forum in Toronto Sept. 18-19.

However, Costco representatives said they had no choice but to substitute AAA with USDA Choice and Canada Prime with Australian Wagyu.

“We sell Choice but not by choice.

Are you forcing us to switch our current program to USDA Choice?” said Claude Gravel, head of fresh food purchases.

Costco started offering U.S. tenderloin and strip loin primals, rib steak and sirloin tip roasts June 20. Rather than carrying the red maple leaf, this

beef carries a USDA sticker.

“We need more AAA, high quality beef. We don’t do it by choice,” said fresh meat buyer Chris Tindall.

“No matter what, when a member comes in the building and they want to buy beef, we give it to them.”

He said there are not enough cattle and not enough qualifying for the AAA quality stamp.

Forty-five to 50 percent of Canadian cattle grade AAA, up from 15-20 percent when the grading program started more than 20 years ago.

Costco struggles to get enough when supply drops to 45 percent.

This was a particular problem last summer. Supplies are adequate when 55 percent of cattle grade AAA.

As well, more retailers will want to stock AAA beef as they understand its value, and there is increasing competition for a small volume of meat.

The company launched a Canada Prime program at 11 stores in Canada in 2009. Only one percent grade Prime at any given time, so supply was extremely limited.

However, customers were willing to pay more. Sales increased as Canadians developed a taste for higher quality beef.

Costco will sell 45 million kilograms of beef this year and in five years plans to market 72 million kg as well as Prime. However, meat buyers don’t know where to find quality beef.

Tindall said producers need to

expand and develop the right kind of cattle and feed regimens to get them to the AAA level.

Saskatchewan beef producer Garret Hill said economic pressures forced many producers out of business and they are unlikely to return.

“I appreciate the fact that you want us to produce more beef, but the last 10 years have been pure hell. We have lost a lot of people in this industry,” said Hill.

“The message we heard is we have to produce it cheaper. That is why you don’t have anybody left producing.…

If you are going to pay for it, fine. We have to get paid before you get any beef on the shelves.”

Costco officials said the entire beef industry needs to work together

because everybody has to make money.

However, one sector often profited at the expense of another over the years, and a new approach is needed to ensure the industry has a future.

“We don’t have any problem paying the market value for beef. What we choose to sell it for is our business,” Tindall said. “We would love to get it back if it is available and the consumers will pay the premium.”

Costco met with the Canada Beef Inc. board two years ago over concerns about the shortage of high grading cattle that would fit its AAA program.

“They really do not want to understand the production side,” said Chuck McLean, past chair of Canada Beef.

Marbling levels can be affected by weather or feed changes. At other times cattle are sold to meet packer contracts for certain delivery dates even though they need more time in the feedlot to add fat. If they were kept on feed longer, the grade would change.

“We can get the specs but every once in a while you get a hiccup in the system,” McLean said.

More corn needs more corn eaters

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Rules hindering the construction of new pig barns may be isolated to Manitoba, but Alberta and Saskatchewan producers should also be concerned, says a provincial politician.

Monsanto announced a $100 million investment in early-maturing corn hybrids last year as part of a plan to dramatically increase corn acres in Western Canada.

Blaine Pedersen, a progressive conservative MLA from Manitoba, said proposed corn expansion hinges on the success of the prairie hog industry.

“What are you going to do with that corn? You’re not going to export that corn out of Western Canada.”

Theresa Bergsma, general manager of the Manitoba Corn Growers Association, agreed.

“We can talk about corn expanding all we want, but if we have nothing to feed it to … if it (the livestock industry) doesn’t pick up at all here, there’s nothing to expand to.”

Animal Bedding Co.’s chopped and shredded cardboard products were the official bedding for dairy and beef animals at Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show held Sept. 9-11 in Woodstock.

It also has sales throughout southwestern and central Ontario.

Jasper said dairy and beef farmers are her biggest customers. The bedding is also sold for poultry, exotic livestock, equines and pets.

She said she got the idea at a horse show in Ohio, where chopped cereal packages were used. It made for a colourful show ring, but she didn’t want artificial dyes in her product.

Jasper uses only virgin sheets and occasionally off-print cardboard when the ink is soy-based.

Corrugated cardboard prices vary, and Jasper stocks up when prices are low.

A handful of employees process the cardboard in a $120,000 facility in Woodstock. It is chopped or shredded, and the dust is extracted during three stage process.

The waste dust is sold to mushroom producers for making compost.

She said cardboard begins to compost in six to nine weeks in pack-barn situations, and additional cardboard is added to the pack as needed.

Corrugated cardboard’s corn starch content also makes it useful in absorbing ammonia.

CALGARY BUREAU

TORONTO — U.S. beef producers are nervous about approving imports of live cattle and fresh beef from certain regions of Argentina because of the threat of foot-and-mouth disease entering North America.

Canada knows this is a hot button topic but prefers to trust the scientific evidence.

“We want trade based on science, so if the science suggests it is safe to do so, we want to make sure it is not political science. It has to be clear it is not a threat to our industry,” said Dave Solverson, president of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association.

The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association wants Canada’s support against the possibility of Argentine cattle and fresh product coming north.

“We said we would support it, but not on a protectionist basis. It had to

be science based,” Solverson said.

Only certain regions of countries in South America are considered acceptable to trade under a process known as regionalization.

“We would want our country regionalized. If we had an outbreak, we would like to regionalize the country,” Solverson said.

Under regionalization, Western Canada would still be able to trade if a disease outbreak occurred in Eastern Canada.

Members of the NCBA are also concerned that 14 states in Brazil are up for approval for the export of frozen and chilled products. Foot-andmouth has also been a problem in that country in the past.

The question is on the agenda during the Five Nations Beef Alliance annual meeting in Texas in midOctober. The alliance represents Canada, New Zealand, United States, Australia and Mexico.

Observers from South America are

invited to the meeting.

The issue came to a head when the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) published rules in the federal register earlier this year to allow product from northern Argentina and the Patagonia areas.

APHIS said on its website it does not recognize countries or regions that continue to vaccinate against footand-mouth as free of the disease.

This is the situation in northern Argentina, where vaccination against foot-and-mouth exists following outbreaks in 2003 and 2006.

Therefore, the rule suggests beef could be imported only under specific conditions. It also states the overall risk of foot-and-mouth entering the country through these imports is low.

The comment period is open until Oct. 28 and can be found at www.regulations.gov by typing into the search screen APHIS-2014-0032-0001.

GENOMICS | RESISTANCE

Genetic resistance is researchers’ holy grail Bovine tuberculosis a target | Complex epidemiology of disease presents challenges for genomics researchers

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

VANCOUVER — Finding genetic resistance to disease is similar to the quest for the holy grail.

“Resistance can be quite wide ranging and a hard to find trait,” says Steve Bishop of the University of Edinburgh’s Roslin Institute.

“Resistance is likely to be a continuous trait rather than an all in one trait, and it is likely to contain several mechanisms.”

Resistance is an animal’s ability to

control a pathogen. Some animals may appear to be immune when disease strikes, but they may not have been exposed to it.

Also, scientists need to know what the disease is and how it behaves.

“One of my key hypotheses is that one of the main keys to success is correct interpretation of disease data,” Bishop told the World Congress of Genetics Applied to Livestock Production, which was held in Vancouver Aug. 17-22.

Researchers are exploring genetic variation in resistance to infectious

diseases caused by viruses, bacteria, protozoa, parasites, flies and ticks.

From there they hope to take those results and breed animals for increased resistance.

“The architecture of resistance varies between diseases … particularly for viral diseases that are quite new,” he said. “Data interpretation is often quite difficult, and you have to think like an epidemiologist in interpreting the genetics properly.”

He said researchers have found heritability for resistance while studying infectious pancreatic necrosis in

salmon and bovine tuberculosis in dairy cattle.

Bovine tuberculosis is a serious problem in dairy cattle in the United Kingdom and Ireland.

“It is the biggest disease problem at the moment,” Bishop said.

“It has a very complex epidemiology, and it is getting worse despite our best efforts.”

A surveillance program collects onfarm skin tests and checks carcasses at abattoirs, yet the disease persists.

The skin test is specific, but infected animals are still missed because of

false positive or negative results.

However, genetic studies into how to predict whether an animal may be resistant to the disease have turned up promising results. He said genetic resistance against TB exists, but research is needed on the animals and bacteria responsible.

Other livestock sectors have had success in the area of disease control.

The dairy breeding industry is working toward controlling mastitis through genetic selection, while resistance to parasites has been found in sheep populations.

VIRUSES | CANCER

Research on viral link to cancer may improve treatments ANIMAL HEALTH

JAMIE ROTHENBURGER, DVM

T

he notion that viruses cause cancer may seem bizarre and unintuitive. We usually associate these microscopic disease-causing agents with flu, colds and nasty gastrointestinal illnesses.

However, pioneering researchers began to study the association between viruses and cancer more than 100 years ago. This early work led to a rich history of discoveries that forever changed the way we think about cancer and its causes.

Most prominent among these was Dr. Peyton Rous, an American physician who won the 1966 Nobel Prize in medicine for his discovery of tumourinducing viruses.

As an aside, Rous spent time wrangling cattle in Texas at the turn of the century before resuming his medical education in New England and embarking on his research. One can speculate on the influence this hard work and fresh air had on his creativity moving forward.

Rous worked with chickens.

Tumours from chickens were harvested and small pieces were injected into unaffected chickens. These subsequently developed tumours.

Next, he used a tiny filter to remove all cells and bacteria before injecting the resulting filtrate into chickens.

These also developed tumours.

Based on these findings, it was concluded that a virus was the most likely cause.

These early discoveries led to the finding that papilloma viruses cause certain cancers in people.

Perhaps it is the strangeness of this concept that led to some of the controversy surrounding the human papilloma virus vaccine.

The vaccine, which significantly reduces the incidence of cervical cancer in women, is truly a life-saver.

Rather than treating cancer once it occurs, this vaccine is an example of preventive medicine at its finest: halting the virus that causes cancer in the first place.

They also retain more primitive characteristics. For example, skin cancer cells act and look more like the deepest layer of the skin that gives rise to the other superficial layers than the top skin cells that slough off.

Viruses induce cancer by inserting their own DNA into that of their host.

This gives some viruses the ability to switch on genes that permit cancer cells to invade tissues and ignore signals that would normally trigger their own death.

Other viruses switch off genes that slow down or stop cell replication, which not only permits uncontrolled propagation but also accumulates increasingly more genetic mutations with each cycle.

However, besides chickens, what about other animals?

There are several examples of these phenomena in wild and domestic species.

Last year, researchers at the University of California discovered a new virus within brain tumours of wild raccoons. Even mice have their own suite of cancer-causing viruses, including one that leads to breast cancers.

Sarcoids are the most common tumour in horses. These disfiguring and notoriously difficult to treat skin cancers may be caused by bovine papilloma viruses.

S ome bloodlines and breeds appear to be more often affected by sarcoids, suggesting that a combination of genetic predisposition and virus infection results in tumor formation. Equine papilloma viruses have been associated with certain genital cancers in horses.

Cattle have their own papilloma viruses, which are associated with benign warty-like growths in the mouth, fore-stomach, penis and bladder. Infected cattle are more prone to develop cancer when grazed on bracken fern.

Bovine enzootic leucosis is a disease of cattle that is caused by bovine leukemia virus. Infection induces a form of cancer known as lymphoma.

The prevalence of infection is high, especially on dairy farms, but only a small percentage of cattle develop

lymphoma. Most often, affected cattle have greatly enlarged lymph nodes.

There are two notable exceptions to this trend.

Naked mole rats, which are grotesque subterranean rodents that live in colonies reminiscent of honeybees, are noted for both their long life expectancy (up to 30 years) and their lack of spontaneous cancers, virusinduced or otherwise.

This species is the subject of intensive research to better understand

why this is so.

The other is humans, where less than 20 percent of spontaneous cancers are attributed to viral causes.

We know much about the cancercausing effects of some viruses, but a great deal remains to be learned, including how to implement this knowledge for prevention and treatment in both animals and people.

BARLEY SUPPLY | MALTSTERS SEEK QUALITY

Malting barley shortage looms One million tonnes needed | Rain and snow in early September caused sprouting and staining

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canada’s maltsters will likely have to lower their quality selection standards this year because of a shortage of top quality malting barley, says the head of the Canadian Malting Barley Technical Centre.

However, Canada’s domestic malting industry should still be able to find enough grain to meet its processing needs.

Peter Watts, managing director at the centre, said weather problems in Western Canada this fall hurt barley quality.

“It’s still a little bit early to really be able to say what kind of quality we’re going to have overall,” Watts said.

“But there’s obviously going to be some difficulty this year in terms of selecting malting barley. The good quality stuff that’s out there is definitely going to be in demand.”

Rain and snow in late August and early September hampered harvest operations and caused staining and

sprouting on a significant portion of this year’s crop, Watts said.

Only a handful of growers managed to get some barley off in mid-August, before the bad weather.

Watts estimated that only 10 to 15 percent of this year’s barley crop was harvested before the bad weather arrived.

Stephen Vandervalk, a grain grower from Fort McLeod, Alta., said at least a third of the barley in his area has no chance of being selected for malting.

An early-September snow on Vandervalk’s farm west of Lethbridge laid most cereal crops flat.

Much of the crop combined since then is stained and sprouted.

Vandervalk said selection criteria would be much lower this year than they were last.

Industry observers say old crop barley that looked like cattle feed last fall will likely receive a second look from maltsters this year.

“The maltsters are having to change their specs,” Vandervalk said.

“A lot of the stuff that would nor-

mally never in a million years make it is actually being accepted this year … but there’s also a lot that is just too far gone.”

Watts said Canada’s domestic malting industry normally requires one million tonnes of barley to meet the demands of domestic brewers and foreign buyers of finished malt.

Finding that much grain should not be a problem, although specs will certainly be backed off from last year.

“Selection criteria for malting barley is always a sliding scale,” Watts said.

“We’re still looking at an eight million tonne barley crop this year, so we should be able to find a million tonnes of good malting barley in there for domestic maltsters.”

Canadian exports of unprocessed malting barley will likely be smaller than usual this year, he added.

Europe had a good spring barley crop, so European growers will likely supply a larger part of global demand.

Like Canada, the United States also

has major production challenges.

U.S. brewers and malting houses will likely be looking to Canada for supply.

“They have had really bad luck in the U.S. as well … in terms of weather over the last month, so it’s going to be a difficult year, there’s no question,” said Watts.

Dean McQueen, vice-president of merchandising and transportation with Viterra, agreed that quality barley could be hard to find in some areas.

Chit and vomitoxin are major downgrading factors in many samples.

“The maltsters will find a way to malt some lower quality barley … but there is a fair amount that is going to migrate to that feed channel,” McQueen said.

Some regions of Western Canada had better harvest weather, he added.

“The north hasn’t had quite the same rainfall and stop-and-start that the south has had, so we’re still seeing some pretty good quality coming off in the north,” he said.

INCORPORATING FARM | ASSOCIATED CORPORATIONS

Associated corporations among family have tax consequences TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS

COLIN MILLER

T

here are many reasons for incorporating a farm, from gaining lower tax rates to restructuring how the farm is run.

However, the benefits can be reduced if the corporation is deemed to be “associated” with another corporation.

Recognizing when your corporation would be considered associated and the impact it has on your business may change the way you structure your operation.

There are several conditions that can deem one corporation to be associated with another, but the one that tends to affect farms the most is when family members have cross ownership.

The family relationship and the percentage of cross ownership that is held may affect whether two corporations are deemed associated.

Neither the nature of the business or the size of the operations affect whether the two corporations would be deemed associated.

For example, if one of your children owns an engineering company, it could still be deemed associated to your farming company even if your child has never worked a day on the farm but owns some shares in it.

If the two corporations are deemed to be associated, consider the following:

to be associated, those credits take into consideration the size of the associated group of companies rather than just the corporation that makes the application.

Those credits could be reduced if your farm is associated with other corporations.

Tax rate

A corporation that is no longer able to claim the SBD limit may be required to pay all balances within two months instead of the normal three months for small business.

Also, the frequency in which the corporation is required to make installments may be increased. This

The benefits of incorporating can add up quickly in Western Canada, where a corporation’s first $425,000 to $500,000 of taxable income is taxed at 11 to 14 percent.

What many people fail to realize is that this small business deduction (SBD) limit is shared between two corporations when they are deemed to be associated.

This could require both companies to pay higher tax rates on all income above the shared SBD limit.

As a result, additional taxes plus interest on unpaid amounts could be owed.

million) and is no longer considered a “small business.”

A similar treatment applies to associated companies. A corporation may not be large enough to be affected on its own, but the government will look at the associated group as a whole and reduce the SBD limit available to each corporation within that group.

Tax credits

Taxable capital An associated corporation can also be deemed to have a reduced SBD limit because it has to combine its taxable capital.

This reduction will usually start to occur when a company reaches a certain size (taxable capital of $10

Association may also play a factor in reducing the tax credits that are available.

Certain credits, such as the scientific research and development credit, can be reduced, depending on the size of the operation.

When two corporations are deemed

in turn could create cash flow concerns for the company as well as impose additional interest costs if payments are late.

I have not described all the scenarios that cause corporations to be associated. There may be ways to eliminate being associated, such as filing an election not to be associated.

Be sure to speak to a tax professional to determine if your family corporations are associated and whether your current business structure is right for you.
