Canada pressures U.S. to repeal COOL legislation U.S. House, Senate must agree on law repealing country-of-origin labelling

BY BARB GLEN & BARBARA DUCKWORTH LETHBRIDGE, CALGARY BUREAUS

A Canadian agriculture contingent is scheduled to visit Washington, D.C., June 1-2 to press the case for repeal of U.S. country-of-origin labelling legislation.

The World Trade Organization issued a fourth ruling May 18 confirming COOL discriminates against Canadian cattle and hogs. As a result, Cana-

da and Mexico will soon be in a position to impose retaliatory tariffs on American goods, which has attracted attention from U.S. lawmakers.

One of the first moves occurred May 20, when the agriculture committee of the U.S. House of Representatives voted 38-6 to repeal COOL. However, the full House and the U.S. Senate would have to vote in favour of the resolution before COOL can be repealed or otherwise amended to come into compliance with

international trade rules.

“We weren’t worried about the House,” Canadian Cattlemen’s Association president Dave Solverson said May 22. “It was nice to see that convincing 38-6 vote, but we need consensus on the Senate side.”

He said he plans to accompany federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz to Washington next week to meet with U.S. officials.

Canada appears likely to get its first new west coast grain terminal in three decades.

Peter Xotta, vice-president of planning and operations with Port Metro Vancouver, said a number of grain companies are considering building a new terminal at the port.

“It looks pretty clear that there will be at least one. I wouldn’t want to speculate beyond that,” he said.

The port has yet to receive a formal application to build a terminal, but Xotta said things are heating up.

“Some of these discussions are in a fairly advanced stage,” he said.

“I would expect that before 2015 is completed there will be some more public information about the status of these developments. What I mean by that is announcements by proponents.”

It would be the first new terminal on the West Coast since Prince Rupert Grain opened in 1985.

Xotta expects it would take three to five years from the announcement date before a new terminal would be operational.

“Permitting is often more time consuming than the actual construction,” he said.

Xotta couldn’t divulge what companies have been sniffing around the port looking for sites to develop a terminal.

“You can imagine who some of those may be,” he said.

SURVEY, SUBMISSION

Saskatchewan gov’t seeks input on land ownership Ag minister refuses calls for public meetings

BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Online consultation regarding Saskatchewan farmland ownership laws has begun, but some are questioning the method of obtaining input.

Both the opposition New Democrats and the Progressive Conservatives, who don’t have a seat in the legislature, say public meetings should be held on such an important topic.

Agriculture minister Lyle Stewart said online surveys and mailed submissions will be accepted until Aug. 10. He will also meet with specific stakeholders, such as agricultural organizations and lenders, by invitation only.

However, he said public meetings will not be held.

“We’re hopeful that at the end of the day we’ll have a large number of submissions either online or in writing and that there will be sufficient opinion, one way or the other, expressed that we’ll be able to use to guide government.”

He said few people are heard at public meetings.

Agriculture critic Cathy Sproule disagreed. She said the online process is not transparent and people won’t know how the results will be processed and released.

She said the NDP will likely organize its own public meetings, but added summer isn’t the best time to do that.

“I’ve seen lots of respectful and thoughtful public meetings. It’s a way of getting information that’s, I think, time honoured, and I just find it weird that this minister is avoiding them,” she said.

PC leader Rick Swenson suggested the government is afraid to face constituents on this topic.

“Without pubic meetings, no one will have a chance to hear the opinions of others, allowing the government to come to conclusions that will suit themselves, rather than what is best for the backbone of this province, the farming community,” he said in a statement.

Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities president Ray Orb said farmland ownership is on the agenda for the organization’s district meetings in June.

SARM is not in favour of organizations such as the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board buying land.

The pension plan purchase of 115,000 acres started the current controversy.

“We’re generally in favour of our farmers buying farmland,” Orb said.

“If farmers come in from other provinces, those are the kinds of things we want to see here.”

The province’s survey can be found at www.saskatchewan.ca/farmland.

PRECIPITATION NEEDED

Farmers fear dry will turn to drought

BY KAREN BRIERE & MARY MACARTHUR REGINA, CAMROSE BUREAU

Prairie farmers have gone from flood to fire.

After several wet rainy springs, it is now extremely dry in most places, even as some still struggle with wet seeding conditions.

“It’s absolutely dry,” said Trevor Hadwen, agroclimate specialist at Agriculture Canada.

“It has benefitted the farmers in terms of rapidly seeding, but now that most farmers are being a little bit further ahead, they’re starting to get concerned about the soil moisture and germination.”

Saskatchewan and Alberta issued widespread fire bans last week, including agricultural areas.

In Saskatchewan, it’s up to municipalities to issue bans throughout the agricultural region, and the hot, windy conditions prompted some to do that.

Fires on the forest fringe forced evacuations of 23 people near Love, Sask., last weekend. That fire had not yet been contained as of early May 25.

Officials said grass fires have been a concern throughout the south all spring, and they worried about volunteer firefighters becoming overwhelmed by the work.

Curtis Lee, director of wildfire management operations, said May 25 that there had been 224 fires in the province this year, up from 125 in 2014.

All but four were caused by human activity.

Provincial officials said the southern landscape dries out more quickly than the northern forest.

“In the agricultural area, we’re talking about fine fuels — grasses and small shrubs,” said Steve Roberts, executive director of wildfire management.

DRY START TO SPRING Parts of the Prairies have gone as much as 25 days without rain this spring and many farmers are worried about the dry conditions. Livestock producers are concerned about grass growth. Without rain in May and June many grasses will go dormant. Grain growers are anxiously watching their seeded crops for germination. Even so, the entire east side of Saskatchewan still has good moisture conditions and, in some places, overland flooding.

“They drought extremely quickly and as soon as there’s a little bit of breeze and low humidity, their hazard will increase rapidly, even after a couple days of rain. The forest dries out slowly.… The south catches up to the north fairly quickly.”

The fuel load is high. One fire that began near Turtle Lake May 21 covered 1,100 acres by the next morning.

Hadwen said farmers should be careful when moving equipment because they could accidentally spark fires.

“All that litter layer and everything that’s in the top little bit of the soil is fairly dry, and the winds and the heat that we’ve received in the last weekend here certainly have continued

that process of drying things out,” he said.

Parts of the Prairies are in what would be called a meteorological drought in that they haven’t received rain for a long time.

Hadwen said some places haven’t received precipitation for 25 days.

“We’re certainly not in an agricultural drought yet,” he said.

Southern Manitoba was in drought until rain last week, and parts of Alberta are getting close. Hadwen said an assessment to be done at the end of the month will likely find most of the Prairies in an abnormally dry situation.

Dale Wiebe, seeding into recently broken land at La Crete, Alta., said it

was the fourth dry year in a row and the driest in his 20 years of farming.

The area had yet to receive a good soaker rain as of May 22, and last year was dry, too. Wiebe has started to worry about the newly seeded crop.

“It’s all going to depend on how much moisture we get from now on,” he said from his tractor.

He is seeding all his crops one inch deep into moisture to help them germinate and has cut back fertilizer by 40 percent.

“I’m not confident in putting it down,” he said.

Wiebe also increased his crop insurance coverage to 80 percent.

Tara Mulhern Davidson said the Ponteix and Meyronne areas of southwestern Saskatchewan, which is typically the driest part of the province, received 13 millimetres of rain 10 days ago and is “OK.” “But Swift Current is dry, Lac Pelletier, very dry, Tompkins, Piapot, Gull Lake, all dry.”

She said a friend has already sold his entire replacement heifer herd because of the dry conditions.

Hadwen said livestock producers likely aren’t too concerned about water supplies, but grass growth will suffer soon without rain.

He said the entire region needs timely rain to sustain vegetation, but no one wants heavy flood rains.

Meanwhile, he said El Nino is finally starting to strengthen. On the Prairies, that tends to mean drier, warmer weather. Farmers should be aware of that trend, he said.

Environment Canada will issue seasonal forecasts next week, and Hadwen said those will likely change to factor in El Nino.

He also said it’s too soon to sound alarm bells of impending drought.

There’s lots of time for the situation to change. karen.briere@producer.com

Companies with grain terminals at the West Coast, such as this one, may soon see a new competitor on the Vancouver coastline. |

FILE PHOTO

NEW WEST COAST TERMINAL SAID TO BE IN THE WORKS » CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE “Most of them are those companies that are active in the Canadian marketplace but historically have not had terminal assets here in Vancouver.”

One of the firms that recently acquired the CWB said it will be announcing a new investment in the Canadian grain logistics sector in short order.

A report published May 5 by online magazine Gulf Business says the Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (SALIC) will soon make a new investment in Canada’s logistics sector.

SALIC Canada and Bunge are partners in a joint venture known as G3 Global Grain Group, which acquired

50.1 percent of CWB earlier this spring with a $250 million investment.

Xotta said companies wanting to develop a grain terminal at the port have a couple of options.

One is to convert an existing terminal that handles a commodity that doesn’t have the same bright outlook as grain. The other is to build from scratch at one or two vacant sites at the port.

“In total, there are four or five locations that could potentially be developed to handle incremental volumes of grain,” he said. “We certainly don’t see all of those being developed.”

However, he did not rule out the possibility of more than one new grain terminal at the port because there is substantial interest in the sector.

“Agriculture is very active right now, and that is manifesting itself in interest in and around our gateway to serve that,” said Xotta.

As well, plenty of investment is happening at the port’s existing five grain terminals.

Cargill is seeking a permit to reconfigure the rail track system in its rail yard to increase capacity and efficiencies.

Richardson International is in the midst of a $120 million expansion that will add 80,000 tonnes of concrete grain storage at its terminal.

Viterra is seeking a permit for dredging and upgrading the ship loading system at its Pacific Terminal. Viterra also operates Cascadia terminal, but no projects are planned

for that facility.

Alliance Grain Terminal, which is operated by a consortium of grain companies led by Parrish and Heimbecker and Paterson GlobalFoods, has received a permit to replace the existing conveyor gallery that loads ships.

Xotta said the port is also spending hundreds of millions of dollars on infrastructure projects, such as the Low Level Road Project, which was recently completed in North Vancouver, where the Cargill and Richardson terminals are located.

“This Low Level Road Project moved the road behind the terminals away from terminals inland,” he said.

It created room for two additional rail tracks behind the terminals,

which helped increase capacity at the Cargill and Richardson facilities.

The improvements are paying off, with a 22 percent increase in agriproduct shipments through the port in 2014 compared to 2013, although it should be noted that 2013 was the winter where grain transportation went off the rails.

Xotta said the trend points toward increased grain traffic through the port, which is why there is such keen interest in adding new grain handling capacity.

“Stay tuned because it’s exciting,” he said. “There is much more dynamism around (agriculture) than I’ve seen in some time.” sean.pratt@producer.com

Richardson Milling says glyphosate dessication acceptable for its oats

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

A spokesperson for Richardson Milling said clients haven’t badgered the company about its oats policies despite the intense interest in glyphosate. | FILE PHOTO

Richardson Milling, the largest oat miller in North America, has no intention of changing its policies on glyphosate.

Tracey Shelton, director of corporate communications with Richardson International, said the company would continue to buy oats that have been desiccated with glyphosate.

The company operates oat milling and processing plants in Portage la Prairie, Man., Martensville, Sask., Barrhead, Alta., and South Sioux City, Nebraska.

Grain Millers, a major oat buyer in Western Canada, announced last month that it would no longer buy oats if the crop has been treated with glyphosate before harvest.

Grain Millers, which is based in Minnesota and has operations in Yorkton, Sask., had noticed problems with its oat quality and functionality for about three years. Oat groats were brittle and chalky and didn’t meet specifications. The problems were similar to frost damage.

Terry Tyson, Grain Millers procurement manager in Yorkton, said the company discovered through a process of elimination that pre-harvest glyphosate was likely causing the damage.

Desiccating oats with glyphosate has become more commonplace in Western Canada in the last decade.

The herbicide evens up the crop and

allows farmers to harvest a more consistent product.

Tyson said Grain Millers also learned that glyphosate was compromising beta glucan levels in oats.

Beta glucan is a soluble fibre linked to improvements in cholesterol levels and cardiovascular health. Food manufacturers can place a “Heart Healthy” claim on oat-based cereals because they contain beta glucan.

Tyson said an early application of glyphosate causes a shortcut to crop maturity, which may decrease the amount of beta glucan in the oats.

“In order to meet those (Heart Healthy) claims, beta glucan levels in the raw oats (have) to be in excess of four percent,” he said.

“Other factors can also adversely affect beta glucan levels, but our research demonstrates that premature application of glyphosate can have that effect.”

Shelton said Richardson Milling hasn’t observed or heard about changes to oats because of pre-harvest glyphosate.

“As a miller, we are not aware of any scientific assessment or findings that would suggest the quality or functionality of oat products are affected, when manufactured from oats treated with glyphosate,” she said.

“If we noticed something that was being affected, we would certainly address it…. We’ve seen nothing in terms of practical use … that would lead us to make any changes.”

A spokesperson for another oat

miller in Western Canada, who didn’t want to be identified, said the company is sticking to the status quo.

It will continue to buy oats that have been treated with glyphosate.

Grain Millers released its new policy about a month after a World Health Organization report classified glyphosate as probably carcinogenic to humans.

Grain Millers said its decision wasn’t a response to that controversial report. The company was studying and thinking about glyphosate long before the WHO classification.

In April, Reuters reported that food companies, scientists and consumer groups in the United States were asking laboratories to conduct more tests for glyphosate residues on food compared to previous years.

Shelton said Richardson Milling clients haven’t badgered the company about its policies, despite the intense interest in glyphosate.

“It’s not like we’re getting a lot of questions or requests (regarding glyphosate),” she said.

“Unless something drastically changes, if the regulations are changed, we will continue to follow (established) practices…. At Richardson we make science-based decisions…. They (pesticides) are only registered if the level of exposure to Canadians doesn’t cause any harmful effects.” robert.arnason@producer.com

CANADA PRESSURES U.S. ON COOL » CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE Rick Bergmann, chair of the Canadian Pork Council, said he also intends to visit Washington in one of two trips regarding COOL. Bergmann said the U.S. House agriculture committee vote was an encouraging sign.

“It’s great that they’re to the point where they’re discussing and voting and understanding the damage that it has done for both countries,” said Bergmann.

He said the WTO ruling indicates repeal is the only option for the U.S. “The wiggle room on changing it, as I see it, has ended.”

Solverson has a similar opinion about revision versus repeal. Some factions have suggested a North American label as a compromise to COOL, which requires labels indicating animals’ place of birth, feeding and slaughter.

“None of those compromises really work for the whole industry,” said Solverson.

The Canadian beef and pork industries estimate COOL has cost them an estimated $1 billion per year in lost markets and sales of cattle and hogs since the labelling law was fully implemented.

Canada’s list of items on which to impose 100 percent tariffs will be designed to extract at least an equal amount of financial damage to the U.S. if they are implemented.

Ritz and meat industry players have repeatedly said a repeal of COOL is

preferable to the imposition of retaliatory tariffs.

“We would be prepared to drop it if it were repealed or if COOL was resolved to our satisfaction,” Solverson said.

Added Bergmann: “They’re our neighbours.… It would be really too bad if it would come to that, but there’s been so much discriminatory hurt in all of this. Certainly we wouldn’t want to retaliate, but there are some times in this life that we do things that we don’t want to do, but we know that they need to be done.”

The list of commodities targeted for retaliatory tariffs goes before the WTO dispute settlement body next week, and tariffs could be in place by August or September.

Canada and Mexico have to provide figures to the WTO on the level of losses experienced under COOL. Ritz has cited a figure of $2.5 to $3 billion.

However, the U.S. is likely to dispute those figures.

R-CALF USA and the U.S. National Farmers Union continue lobbying to protect COOL. They say Congress should consult with the administration to determine whether to bring the law into compliance or initiate negotiations with Canada and Mexico to arrive at mutually acceptable compensation.

However, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association and the National Pork Producers Council are among those in the U.S. to urge repeal of COOL to avoid

I think at first blush, when consumers hear about labelling, they’re all for it, but I don’t think they want to see 9,000 people put out of work and they don’t want to see packing plants close and I don’t think they want to see a trade war.

In Canada, Saskatchewan agriculture minister Lyle Stewart said he was not surprised by the WTO’s favourable ruling on COOL but was nevertheless pleased.

“Nothing happens quickly in the U.S. system, but we will be reinforcing the position that we’ve taken all along, since 2008, with both houses (of Congress).”

He said COOL has resulted in clo-

“I think at first blush, when consumers hear about labelling, they’re all for it, but I don’t think they want to see 9,000 people put out of work and they don’t want to see packing plants close and I don’t think they want to see a trade war,” he said.

“I don’t think consumers in the U.S. understand the full impact of COOL and I think their legislators have seen

it as an advantage to them to see that they don’t ever understand that.”

In Alberta, Wildrose agriculture critic Rick Strankman said he welcomed the WTO ruling and called COOL “misguided, protectionist rules” that don’t serve American consumers or producers.

COOL IN MANITOBA

Livestock sector expects slow recovery Producers cautious while rebuilding production

Manitoba’s beleaguered hog and cattle farmers aren’t expected to bounce back quickly, even if U.S. country-of-origin labelling is dismantled soon.

Some farmers have been knocked out of the industry and aren’t around any more. Others will be cautious while rebuilding their production.

“Will producers just get up and reignite their production and refill their barns? Absolutely not,” said Rick Bergmann, a hog producer from Steinbach, Man., and chair of the Canadian Pork Council.

“The damage has been done.”

Cow-calf producers are also not expected to increase production to where they would have been if COOL had not been imposed.

“It’s tough to see any expansion happening yet,” said Heinz Reimer, a cattle producer from Steinbach and president of Manitoba Beef Producers.

Manitoba’s hog and cattle industries are considered to have been hit the hardest by COOL in Western Canada.

Many of Manitoba’s weanling pig producers relied on U.S. buyers because there are not enough feeder barn spaces in Canada to take weanlings if they don’t go to the United States. Many U.S. hog farmers refused to buy Canadian weanlings when COOL became law and U.S. packers

began banning or restricting the delivery of Canadian-born hogs.

Southern Manitoba weanling producers were suddenly faced with thousands of piglets they couldn’t sell on either side of the border and no way to keep them on the farm because new piglets were arriving every week.

“In the sow world, when you wean an animal, within 24 hours it needs to be on a trailer heading south,” said Bergmann.

Many farmers shut their sow barns and walked away, Bergmann said.

Many of them are now ex-farmers and won’t come back.

COOL had a less direct impact on Manitoba cattle producers, but it also caused production to bleed away.

The province’s cow herd has shrunk more than in Saskatchewan and Alberta in recent years.

Western Canada’s packers are in Alberta, but feedlots in the U.S. Midwest often bought yearlings from cow-calf producers in Manitoba.

Many of those feedlots stopped buying Manitoba cattle after COOL was implemented, which eliminated that market as an option.

Reimer said the price impact on Manitoba farmers was about $100 per animal, which is similar to that across Canada. ed.white@producer.com

CANOLA PRICE OUTLOOK

Tight margins see crushers slow down Crude oil prices, a weak Canadian dollar and poor soybean meal contracts factors in tight margins

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Canola crush margins are tightening, and that means lacklustre bids for old crop, say analysts.

The canola board crush margin was $65 per tonne as of May 22, down from $173 per tonne a year ago.

“There is definitely a down trend going on here,” said an oilseed analyst who requested anonymity.

Joel Horn, president of Legumex Walker, a grain company that operates a canola crush facility in Warden, Washington, blamed slumping margins for the disappointing quarterly results in the company’s oilseed division.

“The entire North American canola crush industry is working within one of the lowest crush margin environments since we commissioned the canola plant in 2013,” he told investment analysts during a recent conference call.

He attributed the poor margins to the continued weakness in crude oil prices. However, he noted that margins always bounce back.

The analyst said crush margins for individual plants vary from the canola board crush margins. For instance, plants in Saskatchewan will likely have lower margins because of higher logistics costs getting the product to market.

He said a stronger Canadian dollar, weakening soybean meal and soybean oil contracts and strengthening canola futures are all contributing to tighter margins in recent weeks.

“It would tend to mean guys would bid a little bit less if their margins are getting tighter,” the analyst said.

“It will hold the line on cash prices going up too much.”

How long crush facilities are saddled with lower margins will depend on how much new crop canola farmers produce.

“If we get a good crop here, I think that will improve margins,” he said.

“It’s more an old crop problem, not as much on the new crop until we see what the production is going to be.”

Statistics Canada is forecasting 19.4 million acres of canola, but the analyst said the agency has a tendency to underestimate the canola crop by about one million acres.

“I think it will be higher, but I wouldn’t say it is too much more than 20 (million acres),” he said.

Jon Driedger, an analyst with FarmLink Marketing Solutions, said canola crush plants are running at 70 to 75 percent capacity compared to more than 80 percent a year ago.

“We’ve seen the pace of crush lagging a little bit the last number of weeks,” he said.

It means less canola demand and higher carry-out for 2014-15, although it shouldn’t be anything too dramatic, maybe 200,000 tonnes.

“It may be the difference between the market being really tight and maybe having just a little more cushion going into the next crop year,” said Driedger.

“Demand overall has been good and we’re certainly not going to be sitting on a mountain of canola going into the next harvest.”

He said the canola crush board margin is calculated using soybean oil and soybean meal prices, so it is hard to get an exact read on how the industry if faring.

“Maybe that is a bit of an indication that some of these margins have

been a little less robust than they had been,” said Driedger.

However, he still expects crush volumes to increase in 2015-16 because of some of the capacity

OILSEED

Manitoba flax acres poised for a comeback 145,000 acres are possible, says official

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Manitoba farmers used to seed 500,000 acres of flax but last year they grew less than 90,000.

It was less than what was planted in Alberta — a first for the Prairies.

Flax proponents in Manitoba hope 2015 is the year this persistent decline reverses.

Many people think acreage could hit 150,000.

“When we were looking for (flax) seed this spring, we had to look far and wide to find some,” said Eric Fridfinnson, who farms near Arborg, Man. “It looks like acres are going to be up.”

St a t i s t i c s Ca n a d a e s t i m a t e d 145,000 acres in Manitoba in its spring planting intentions survey.

Fridfinnson, chair of the Manitoba Flax Growers Association, plans to seed 700 to 800 acres.

The Statistics Canada number is probable, he added.

“I think that would be great news for the flax processing industry here in Manitoba and a good opportunity for farmers too,” Fridfinnson said.

“We’ll be kind of disappointed if it’s not over 125,000.”

Anastasia Kubinec, Manitoba Agriculture oilseed specialist, said growers who gave up on flax five or 10 years ago because of poor yields may plant flax this spring instead of canola.

High canola input costs are not an issue for all but some farmers are looking for alternatives.

“Some guys who are growing flax or putting peas in this year, they stated that (canola input costs) as one of the reasons.”

Fridfinnson said price is also a consideration.

“A month ago or so, you could lock in fall prices of $12.50 per bushel, which was 20 percent higher than canola.”

Kubinec has for years argued it’s possible to generate flax yields of 30 bu. or more if farmers control weeds, use a fungicide, seed the crop following a cereal and plant before the May long weekend.

Kubinec said she received “piles” of phone calls this winter about flax agronomy.

“Asking me about crop rotation and flax, what weeds are the hard ones to control … and when to use some of those post-seed, pre-emergent products.”

Fridfinnson said flax is a good rotational crop to help prevent the spread of soil-borne disease in other crops.

“Our grandfathers knew it, but with the advent of fungicides and stuff, we thought we could get away with a lot of things,” he said.

“But I think the chickens are coming home to roost. There is no substitute for good agronomy and good crop rotation.” robert.arnason@producer.com

As farmers seed the 2015 crop, they hope Agriculture Canada’s forecasts of declining canola carry out stocks come true to support prices and partly offset the negative effect of rising world soybean stocks. | FILE PHOTO OUTLOOK

Agriculture Canada sees declining canola stocks MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

A

griculture Canada has lowered its forecast for Canadian canola year-end stocks to 950,000 tonnes from 1.45 million and has pegged the 2015-16 carryout at a very tight 500,000 tonnes.

Year-end stocks of less than a million tonnes are tight and provide good support for the canola market.

However, canola prices are determined in the broader context of oilseed values, and they are under pressure because of excellent growing conditions in the U.S. Midwest and strong competition from South

American soybeans.

Nevertheless, a tight canola stocks situation will help keep the yellow flowered crop in a premium price position compared to other oilseeds.

Agriculture Canada left its 2014-15 export and domestic crush numbers unchanged at 9.2 million tonnes and 7.2 million, respectively.

It increased its allocation for feed, waste and dockage to 667,000 tonnes, up from 142,000 in the previous month’s report. That is a lot more in that category than is normal and might be a bit of a fudge factor.

The Canadian Grain Commission said canola exports are 6.845 million tonnes as of May 17, but the CGC data does not catch all exports. By comparing CGC weekly data and Statistics Canada’s monthly data, it looks like CGC data catches 93.5 percent of all canola exports.

If that is correct, then total canola exports stand at 7.32 million tonnes as of May 17, or an average of 178,561

tonnes a week.

If exports keep up with that pace for the remaining 11 weeks of the crop year, then Agriculture Canada’s forecast of 9.2 tonnes of exports will be correct.

And even with the current weakness in the canola crush margin, the crush forecast of 7.2 million tonnes also appears to be appropriate.

So Agriculture Canada’s ending stocks number of less than a million tonnes appears easily attainable.

The department’s forecast for 201516 ending stocks is an even tighter 500,000 tonnes.

The department’s new crop supply and demand is based on the March seeding intentions report, which said farmers planned to seed 19.42 million acres and produce a crop of 14.9 million tonnes.

However, most analysts think the final number will be higher, and the historical experience is that the final seeded area is five percent higher

than the spring intentions report.

It would mean another million seeded acres and a production number closer to 15.7 million tonne, or about 800,000 tonnes more than Agriculture Canada’s forecast.

However, that does not mean the ending stocks forecast is wrong by a similar amount.

Agriculture Canada lowered its 2015-16 export forecast to eight million tonnes from 9.2 million this year, largely because if it kept exports high, it would have driven stocks down to an impossibly small amount.

If there is more canola available, more will be exported. As well, it is reasonable to expect another carry-out of less than a million tonnes and maybe even as tight as the 500,000 tonnes that Agriculture Canada has forecast. darce.mcmillan@producer.com Follow D’Arce McMillan on Twitter @darcemcmillan.

OILSEED PROCESSING

Manitoba can support soybean-canola crush plant: report

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

A consulting firm says a soybean crush plant is feasible in Manitoba, but a switch plant that handles soybeans and canola is probably the best option for the province.

Manitoba and Saskatchewan produce 20 percent of Canada’s soybeans, but there is no soybean crush plant in Western Canada.

In a report released mid-May, Mercantile Venture Consulting said there are sufficient soybeans and enough demand from livestock producers, particularly Manitoba’s hog industry, to support a switch plant.

“For soybean producers, a local crush plant would … likely generate freight savings and better soybean prices to growers,” the report said.

“Livestock producers would equally benefit by gaining a local protein feed supply at competitive prices.”

However, Mercantile Venture Consulting said a dedicated soybean

crusher may not be realistic, because the plant has to be large enough to capture economies of scale.

“For a single use plant, a minimum capacity of 2,000 tonnes (a day), or 695,000 tonnes annually, would be needed,” Mercantile said.

“Based on 2014 production numbers, a 2,000 tonne per day plant in Manitoba needs to attract … 37 to 55 percent of total current soybean production (in Manitoba and Saskatchewan). The size of the soybean meal market in Western Canada would need to be further developed.”

Mercantile said the plant could process soybeans until supplies became hard to source, and then switch to canola for the remainder of the crop year.

Claude Vielfaure, executive vicepresident of Hylife, which owns pig barns in Manitoba and operates a hog processing plant in Neepawa, said soy meal is usually the second ingredient in hog rations, after corn or another cereal.

“It’s probably 20 percent of the ration,” he said.

The study was funded by the Manitoba Pulse & Soybean Growers Association and Soy 20/20, a consortium of government, universities and companies that has a mandate to develop Canada’s soy industry.

Kyle Friesen, chair of the growers association, said a soy crushing plant would provide a local market for beans, and Manitoba growers would be less reliant on exports.

“We want to encourage local supply and demand to keep value-added

processing in Manitoba to support jobs, the tax base and economic activity,” he said.

The provincial government estimated in a news release that the overall economic benefits of a soybean crushing plant would be $190 million a year, based on facility construction and job creation.

Mercantile Venture Consulting didn’t specify a location for a possible crushing plant, but did say there is a “sweet spot,” likely in south-central Manitoba, where most soybeans are grown.

The location should also be close to feed mills in Winnipeg and a reasonable distance from southeastern Manitoba, where the province’s hog barns are concentrated.

The growers’ association and Soy 20/20 said they plan to investigate “potential stakeholders” who may want to build a soybean crushing plant in Manitoba. robert.arnason@producer.com

MARKETS

AGRICULTURAL TRADE

Canada needs wide market access to help offset trade barriers HEDGE ROW

ED WHITE

W

inning the fight against country-of-origin labelling isn’t winning a war.

It’s winning an epic battle in an endless war.

The endlessness of U.S. trade actions against Canadian farm products means that even if COOL is dismantled without being replaced with other offensive legislation, Canadian farmers can never rely on having unfettered access to the U.S. market.

Because Canada’s domestic market is tiny, hedging our exposure to the United States means aggressively expanding or finding markets overseas, even if those markets are vexatious, unreliable and even more obstructionist than the U.S. This might sound pessimistic, but in my own, relatively short 20-year career at The Western Producer I’ve covered multiple U.S. attacks on Canadian crops and livestock, including wheat, hogs and cattle. I’m

not referring to the trade complications any trading nations will occasionally have with each other’s products for legitimate reasons. Instead, I’m talking about what appears to be deliberate attempts to block market access for Canadian products as a way of boosting domestic U.S. prices for American farmers.

Perhaps it’s just my jaded Canadian perspective, but many of these acts of trade blockage have appeared to be nakedly protectionist. Sometimes they have relied upon claims of alleged Canadian subsidies and “dumping.” Other times they have been slightly more disguised, as with COOL. What is most similar about them is that trade authorities, sometimes including the U.S. government’s own trade authorities, have not generally supported most of the claims and have eventually thrown out or condemned the offending rules or legislation.

That’s happened now as the World Trade Organization throws out COOL’s defences and opens the path to retaliation. However, how long will it be until the next trade barrier is thrown up?

That’s the question that should keep farmer support strong for Canada’s attempts to build its non-U.S. markets.

I called Jacques Pomerleau, the

president of Canada Pork International, about this last week and he laughed about the notion of ever finding a market that doesn’t jerk Canada around at some point.

“It doesn’t matter the country,” said Pomerleau, whose organization is responsible for building the Canadian pork industry’s overseas markets.

“They all have their own interest, and you never know what they will try.”

Russia has been a frustrating market for many years but has sometimes been an important outlet for Canadian pork. China has its own complications but at some point could become as important as Japan.

Who knows where future trade barriers will arise? Does anyone believe they can foresee that? I assume not.

The only real defence is having such a wealth of foreign markets that losing one or two will not be devistating to Canadian farmers.

The U.S. will always hold a mighty hammer over Canadian farmers because its market is so big and so close, but if we can put some padding on top of the anvil, perhaps the future blows won’t fall so hard.

The U.S. is a great market. Farmers just need to remember they can never count on it, regardless of temporary victories. ed.white@producer.com

Canada continues to import huge volumes of U.S. ethanol.

The United States shipped 1.34 billion litres of the fuel to Canada last year, which is enough to supply most of the country’s mandate.

“Canada definitely is a net importer of ethanol, and it requires that to meet the national mandate,” said Jim Grey, chair of the Canadian Renewable Fuels Association.

He is not overly concerned about the high level of imported U.S. ethanol. Canadian and U.S. ethanol are priced off of the Chicago Board of Trade, so what’s good for U.S. ethanol prices is good for Canadian prices.

“From a Canadian producer’s perspective it’s OK that there’s U.S. ethanol coming into Canada,” said Grey, who is also chief executive officer of IGPC Ethanol, an Ontario corn ethanol plant.

From a Canadian farmer’s perspective however, it is a sign of a failed biofuel policy.

“It would be really great if we could supply ethanol (made) with Canadian grain,” said Norm Hall, president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan.

Subsidies were in place to create a larger ethanol industry, but he thinks investors were wary of the government’s track record on such programs.

“We haven’t been known for longevity of programs,” said Hall.

He acknowledged there is one perk to Canada supporting the U.S. ethanol sector: it provides another market for U.S. corn. Without that outlet, even more oversupply of the commodity would weigh down corn and other grain and oilseed prices.

“We’d get tagged with lower prices because of it, so I guess that is one benefit.”

Andrea Kent, president of the renewable fuel association, said the national mandate creates a market for about 2.2 billion litres of ethanol consumption annually but blenders are using more than that.

In 2014 they blended 1.8 billion litres of Canadian ethanol and 1.17 billion litres of U.S. ethanol for a total of nearly three billion litres. Some of the imported U.S. ethanol is used for industrial applications.

She said Canadian ethanol production meets most of the country’s mandate.

“Imports go to over-compliance with the federal regulation,” she said in an email.

Kent said the CRFA supports an open North American fuel market and that it brings advantages to Canadian consumers and producers of the fuel.

“Imports do not deter from the fact that we meet most of our mandate through domestic production,” she said.

Grey said there is significant overcapacity in the U.S. ethanol market, and Canada is a natural outlet because of the open border.

“The ethanol industry is a North American industry. The Canadian and U.S. industries aren’t separated by any stretch because there’s no border,” he said.

Grey said it makes sense for U.S. ethanol to flow into Western Canada.

Most ethanol is made with corn and most of Canada’s corn is grown in Quebec and Ontario.

“Trade routes go north-south in this continent, not east-west, so it’s much cheaper for blenders in Western Canada to bring in ethanol from the United States than it is to bring it from Quebec and Ontario,” he said.

“The same thing out in the Maritimes.” sean.pratt@producer.com

Heifer numbers were too few to establish a price.

Many of the cattle on offer had been on feed for only 60-100 days.

The Alberta fed cash-to-futures basis narrowed to $16.22 but seasonally remained strong, discouraging American buyers.

Weekly western Canadian slaughter to May 16 was 29,377 head, one of the smallest non-holiday week kills this year.

Weekly exports to May 9 rebounded slightly to 3,454 head.

Feedlots are current in their marketing, and lighter cattle will remain on feed unless packers are willing to push delivery dates out into July.

Cash cattle in the U.S. Plains traded mostly US$159-$161 per cwt. last week, which was steady to down $2 from the previous week, Reuters reported.

COWS UP Fewer non-fed cattle were taken to market because producers were tied up with seeding.

D1, D2 cows ranged C$140-$157 to average $147.42 per cwt, up $1.29.

D3 cows ranged $120-$140 to average $131.75.

Rail grade cows were $282-$287 per cwt. Slaughter bulls were $167.78, up $1.82.

Dry pastures are worrying producers. A few more cows could hit the market if moisture conditions don’t improve.

U.S. pasture conditions are much improved, which means few U.S. beef cows will enter the slaughter mix.

Dry pastures are pushing a few more cattle onto the market, but many producers are sitting on the side-lines waiting for rain.

However, more feeders could come onto the market, especially if one can pencil in a profit at today’s cash prices.

Steers 900 pounds and heavier in British Columbia and Alberta for August delivery saw prices in the low to mid $240s per cwt.

Anecdotal evidence suggests basis levels have strengthened slightly from earlier in May but remain weaker than the five year average.

Feeder exports over the past three weeks have ranged 5,800-7,400 head, which is down from 8,100-10,600 head in the same period last year.

The premium for breeding heifers that was evident in March and April has evaporated.

BEEF PEAKS? U.S. boxed beef prices peaked in the middle of last week but then slipped as Memorial Day needs were met.

Weekly Canadian boxed beef prices to May 15 saw AAA at C$315.12, up $5.42, and AA was $308.83, up $4.49.

The Canadian cutout continued to trade at a premium to the United States, but the spread is expected to narrow.

FEWER FEEDLOT PLACEMENTS Fewer cattle went into U.S. feedlots in April than expected, supporting prices for next fall.

Placements were 1.548 million head, down five percent from last year. The market expected a gain of .9 percent.

Manitoba growers supersize spud acres A weaker Canadian dollar has helped growers regain contracts from Simplot and McCain Foods, which export to the U.S.

SEEDED POTATO ACRES IN CANADA:

BRANDON BUREAU

Potato acres rebounded this spring in Manitoba after several years of decline.

Gary Sawatzky, general manager of the Keystone Potato Producers Association, said numbers are not finalized and figures are estimates, but potato acres in Manitoba will increase significantly this year.

“We’re up about 18 percent in volume,” Sawatzky said from his office in Portage la Prairie, Man. “Whether that translates into 18 percent acreage (increase), I’m not sure.”

Manitoba’s potato acreage dropped to 63,000 acres last year from 76,000 in 2012. The 17 percent decline was the largest among provinces.

Simplot and McCain Foods, which operate potato processing plants in the province, cut production contracts in the province in 2013 and 2014.

The companies said Manitoba potatoes were costly compared to regions such as Washington state, where growers can generate yields of 600 hundredweight per acre, which is double the average yield in Manitoba.

The weaker Canadian dollar, now trading around US80 cents, has helped Manitoba regain acres, Sawatzky said.

“Both companies went up (in volume),” he said.

“It’s good to see the volume back here.”

Sawatzky said growers would benefit from the additional acres because it boosts efficiency.

Increased production helps cover fixed costs such as machinery and storage facilities.

Alberta will see a slight decline in potato acres.

Terence Hochstein, Potato Growers of Alberta executive director, said acreage would be down about 1,000 acres from last year’s 53,000 acres.

Hochstein said the weak loonie isn’t as helpful for Alberta’s potato industr y because most of the french fries and frozen potato products from Alberta are exported to Asia.

“Our markets are very different than Manitoba’s. (Their) market is south into the … U.S. Midwest. Our markets are offshore,” he said.

“The (Asian) market is growing,

but everything is exported based on U.S. dollars, and the U.S. dollar is strong.”

Hochstein said the weak euro is aiding European potato growers and processors because their products have become more competitive globally.

Sawatzky said this year’s potato prices are three percent higher than last year, but contract prices fell by two to four percent in 2014, which means prices may still be lower than they were in 2013.

In Alberta, process potato prices are up about 1.5 to two percent, Hochstein said.

He said the price isn’t ideal, but Alberta’s potato crop is progressing nicely.

Growers planted early this spring, and the crop is about a week to 10 days ahead of normal development, he added.

CRAIG’S VIEW

SEVEN YEARS AND COUNTING

Trade dispute process flawed despite Canada’s COOL win

C

anada’s latest win at the World Trade Organization against American country-of-origin labelling rules gives producers cause for celebration but it also illustrates the work that lies ahead.

Canada must seek all alternatives in trying to find speedier ways to address future unfair trade practices instituted by its trading partners The WTO, in its latest ruling in Canada and Mexico’s seven-year-long fight against COOL, has given Canada the right to impose retaliatory tariffs on American imports if no deal can be reached.

Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz says the tariffs, which include almost 40 categories of goods, should be in place by autumn.

However, the more immediate question is what will the U.S. do next? There were encouraging signs last week as the U.S. House of Representatives agriculture committee voted 38-6 in favour of repealing COOL. Republican majorities in both the Senate and House also bode well for Canadian trade interests.

The WTO has at least strengthened Canada’s ability to respond, but the case around COOL also exposes deep flaws. Seven years of U.S. legal stick-handling has cost Canadian cattle and hog producers about $1 billion each year.

They will never regain those losses.

The problem lies with the WTO dispute settlement process. Here is an abbreviated outline of how the system works: • Once a complaint is filed, a bilateral consultation process is set up to see if the two parties can find a solution between themselves.

• If not, it goes through an adjudication process, where things often get bogged down.

• A panel is established, and terms of references are decided upon. The panel examines the case and meets with the parties involved, as well as others who might have an interest. It may then be sent to a separate review group.

• Then there’s an interim review stage, which gathers more input before issuing a report.

• Court reviews may come into play at this point, followed by implementation of the report by the disputes settlement panel.

• Added proceedings are necessary if there are disputes over implementation, including referrals back to the original panel. In this case, the U.S. changed its COOL legislation, which delayed the process by a year because the new legislation then had to be ruled upon.

• In cases of non-implementation, parties negotiate compensation. If that’s not possible, retaliatory tariffs are drawn up and sent to the WTO for approval.

Throw in several appeals at various stages along the way and it isn’t hard to make a case for streamlining the process.

Canada needs to find allies that can help reinvigorate the WTO trade process and hopefully find a better approach to solving disputes.

If there is a key message, it is that any Canadian industry that relies heavily on U.S. trade had best develop a Plan B. U.S. politicians have demonstrated in this case and in the past that they would rather pay armies of lawyers to win favour with the home electorate, and pound away at one undotted ‘i’ or uncrossed ‘t’ in the legal text, rather than live up to the spirit of the deal.

The federal government is dead right in continuing to aggressively pursue other trade deals outside of the WTO. Trade arrangements with European and Pacific Rim countries, as well as two-country trade packages, are vital in ensuring Canada doesn’t put too many trade eggs into one unreliable basket.

COUNTRY-OF-ORIGIN LABELLING

I don’t think consumers in the U.S. understand the full impact of COOL and I think their legislators have seen it as an advantage to them to see that they don’t ever understand that.

CFIA STAFFING

Gov’t, union exchange accusations over food safety issues CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

T

ensions between Canada’s health minister and the head of the federal government’s national agriculture union have mounted again, after union president Bob Kingston accused Rona Ambrose of misleading a parliamentary committee earlier this month.

In a May 15 letter to House health committee chair and Conservative Member of Parliament Ben Lobb, Kingston urged the committee to summon frontline inspectors to testify on the state of Canada’s food safety system.

“The minister’s testimony stretches the truth to the breaking point,”

Kingston wrote. “I urge your committee to dig deeper. If you do, you will find a food inspection program that is critically short staffed.”

The decision to cut back on inspection, particularly sanitation inspections, the union leader said, is a political decision.

“The CFIA (Canadian Food Inspect i o n A g e n c y ) w o u l d h av e y o u believe that it is a science-based department and that all of its decision have been risk assessed,” Kingston told Lobb.

“If asked, I believe CFIA officials would be unable to produce an assessment of the risk associated with cutting sanitation and preoperation inspections by 50 percent at all meat processing plants in Northern Alberta.”

According to the union president, “that risk has never been assessed. It was a decision taken to cope with a shortage of inspectors.”

Kingston’s dismissal of a Conference Board of Canada report, which ranked Canada’s food safety system as the best out of 17 countries in the

Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, drew ire from the minister’s office, which said in an email that “Mr. Kingston is just confirming his grandstanding as union leader.”

When asked about the union’s accusation that Ambrose misled the committee, the minister’s office stood behind her testimony.

“The minster’s comments at committee stand,” her spokesperson said via email.

Ambrose and Kingston have been publicly at odds with each other over cuts to meat inspections since the union released heavily redacted documents in March showing since Jan. 5 reductions had been made to meat inspections at Northern Alberta processing plants. iPolitics, an online news service covering federal politics, later obtained complete, unredacted versions of those documents, which the agency insists is simply a contingency plan, that reduction in the number of inspections had been put in place because of a staffing shortage and

financial constraints.

Since then the union has also warned about serious staffing shortages in Quebec, where Kingston said every federal meat inspection team in the province was understaffed.

An Alberta inspector, meanwhile, has warned of low morale within the department and said officials in Ottawa are lying about the situation on the ground.

Both Ambrose and CFIA president Dr. Bruce Archibald have denied any cuts to the agency.

The concerns raised by the union, Ambrose told both the committee and reporters, is nothing more than union grandstanding, an accusation Kingston denies.

The minister’s assurances that no cuts have been made to meat inspections in Canada, Kingston has said, are not true and the minister’s stubbornness in refusing to admit there is a staff shortage is putting Canadians at risk.

“Playing politics with food safety like this is a dangerous game. Cana-

dian lives are at stake,” he wrote in a recent op-ed to iPolitics. “But it seems that’s a risk this government is prepared to take.

“After all, what could possible go wrong in the few short months before Canadians vote?,” the op-ed reads, referring to the federal election set for Oct. 19.

The answer to that question, Kingston says, is plenty, especially when it comes to listeria contamination, the same bacteria that killed 22 people in 2008 after an outbreak struck a Maple Leaf processing plant in Toronto.

There have been five times as many cases of listeria contamination in 2014 than there were in 2013, the union president said in his op-ed “an indication that food processors are letting down their guard.”

“Only another significant foodborne illness outbreak will press this government into action,” he said.

“Canadians should worry.”

Canada’s dairy system must be defended

BY WALLY SMITH

A

s I’m reading the media reports from the recent G20 agriculture ministers meeting in Turkey, I can’t help but think the United States is publicly bullying Canada on the Trans-Pacific Partnership and suggesting the dismantling of our supply management system.

The articles clearly indicate that agriculture minister Gerry Ritz is holding his ground. I thank you, minister, on behalf of all Canadian dairy farmers.

Minister Ritz, if you feel alone against the U.S., know that millions of Canadians, as well as more than 12,000 dairy farm families who contributed $18.9 billion to Canada’s gross domestic product, generated $3.6 billion in tax revenue and sustained 215,000 jobs in Canada in 2013, are proud of the system we built. If being Canadian means being different, so be it.

Ritz is not the only minister participating in the TPP talks.

International trade minister Ed Fast, who has been participating from the start, also has the country’s best interest at heart. He is not the agriculture minister, but he has many dairy farmers in his riding who have conveyed how changes to the dairy supply management system or the industry’s ability to generate economic wealth would ultimately hurt our economy, whether it be production, processing and related economic activity.

Ritz and Fast, along with prime minister Stephen Harper, are on record supporting and defending supply management, but pundits

Supply management is targeted in TPP negotiations, but Canada has made several trade deals under the system and should not give in. | FILE PHOTO and observers are still heavily speculating on Canada’s position in the TPP trade negotiations.

Canada’s parliamentarians have

repeatedly voted unanimously to support and defend our supply management system.

The government has strong grounds

to stand on in front of the world. Australia, New Zealand and the U.S. can bad mouth our system if it makes them feel good and strong about their own system and redirects attention from their own sensitivities.

At the end of the day, supply management is still what is best for Canada and what allows Canadians to trust the products they buy and consume.

We understand the importance of trade agreements for Canada, and our government has concluded many without selling out what makes Canada, Canada. In fact, all trade agreements that Canada is a party to have been signed while maintaining supply management.

Our Canadian TPP negotiators should reflect on past experiences to guide them in the process.

Some may argue that sacrificing supply management to please international partners makes sense from a trade policy perspective, but let’s keep in mind the important facts: there is more to our country than trade. There is an industry at risk, jobs at risk and quality products at risk for all Canadians.

Our industry is targeted by TPP foreign negotiators, but we believe a deal can be shaped to meet the government’s objectives while supporting Canadian dairy farmers and our rural communities.

I am confident that Ritz and the Canadian government will continue to defend and support our system with no negative impact on the dairy industry, as in past trade negotiations.

RAINBOWS WANTED

Rain key to crop potential, decision making HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

I

t’s a bit early to ring alarm bells, but dryness is already taking a toll on prairie hay and crop potential.

Without significant rain in the next couple weeks, concerns will escalate.

Your view tends to be coloured by the conditions you face on your own farm, and I’m certainly guilty of that.

However, if you look at precipitation maps since April 1, the entire western side of Saskatchewan and much of Alberta is facing a big moisture shortfall.

Many areas have received only a light shower or two all spring. Rain was occasionally in the forecast but never materialized.

Rain was certainly abundant last

fall. There wasn’t a big snow accumulation over the winter, but the saturated, frozen ground caused more runoff than expected.

Early seeding conditions were very good in my area of southwestern Saskatchewn but the top layer became drier and drier as seeding progressed.

Even now, there’s moisture far from the surface, but later seeded crop will need rain for decent germination.

Much of the crop seeded before the end of April has good establishment, and it’s actually looking pretty good if it survived the heavy mid-May frosts.

Crops seeded after May 10 seem destined for spotty emergence unless there is rain.

We’ve become used to ample spring rainfall, even in the traditionally dry regions.

Rain is the great equalizer. Whatever you use for seeding equipment and nutrient placement, it all looks pretty good when there’s rain shortly after the crop goes in the ground.

When there’s no rain for an extended period, the type of ground openers and the seeding depth can make a big

difference. Shallow seeded crops are a particular challenge in dry conditions.

Conditions are much different elsewhere on the Prairies. Flooded and saturated fields are still an issue in some regions. In many areas, producers enjoyed a reprieve from the incredibly wet conditions of recent years. Seeding progress has been phenomenal and prospects are bright.

There may be a great deal of variability this year, but the factor most likely to limit prairie production is lack of moisture. After a number of years of too much rain, drought concerns are back.

There’s still time for the picture to change, but the clock is ticking. Crop potential will be significantly curtailed if the driest regions go another week or two without significant rain.

At least there’s good subsoil moisture, so it wouldn’t take a huge amount of rain to improve prospects.

The subsoil reserve and fresh memories of recent wet springs have delayed the usual expressions of concern, but anxiety will heighten as

crops begin to struggle.

Cattle producers should already be concerned. Tame hay and pasture growth bears little resemblance to what we’ve enjoyed in recent times.

Moisture from last fall is quickly running out.

Even if we return to normal rainfall soon, anything more than an average hay crop is now unlikely in much of the dry region. Production never reaches full potential when early spring moisture is lacking.

Decision making in the dry region in the coming weeks will be heavily influenced by the weather forecast and how fields look as crops try to emerge. Producers will be more likely to hold some grain rather than cleaning out all their bins. Some bin purchases could be cancelled. Investments in new equipment will be less likely.

An inch of rain would make a huge difference.

Liberals need to do more than play blame game EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

BRIAN MACLEOD EDITOR

R

alph Goodale continues to be the main voice of the Liberals on the Prairies.

In a recent meeting with The Western Producer’s editorial board, he said all the things that you’d expect from a prairie politician, but it’s not clear whether his tenacity in surviving the Conservative juggernaut in the region will translate into gains in October’s federal election.

And it’s unclear what prairie farmers could expect under a Liberal government led by Justin Trudeau.

Goodale has represented the Regina riding of Wascana continuously since 1993. He and Winnipeg North MP Kevin Lamoureau are the only Liberals in the Prairies.

In our meeting, he stressed the “colossal” mess the Conservatives made of Western Canada’s grain handling transportation system, which he says has cost farmers $5 billion over the past few years. Grain is moving better now, though still not to everyone’s liking.

He supports a railway costing revenue review. Some farm groups say Canadian National Railway and Canadian Pacific Railway are making up to 20 percent more than what was deemed fair in 1992 by the Canadian Transportation Agency, which enforces revenue caps on rail companies.

The Manitoba Co-operator has reported that federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz would support a costing reviewing if it studied all aspects of the grain handling and transportation system rather than focusing solely on railways.

Goodale’s proposal to set up an agency to “quarterback” the transportation system might be echoed by the CTA review, which is expected to issue an interim report by the fall. It’s likely the Conservatives will use the report as a basis for policy during the election campaign, undermining any inroads the Liberals might make.

Goodale also voiced concern about the possibility the Conservatives might weaken Canada’s supply management system in the dairy, poultry and egg sectors as part of the TransPacific Partnership talks.

Yet it’s not clear what the Liberals would do — faced with pressure from the United States, Australia and New Zealand to do just that — if Canada is to be part of the trade agreement, which would offer export opportunities to other farming sectors, most notably canola.

The Liberals have yet to devise a strategy that will differentiate them enough from the Conservatives to overcome the party’s stance as weak sister on the Prairies.

Prime minister Stephen Harper crowed about the destruction of the CWB and the resulting economic growth that would occur, like the phantom Regina pasta plant, which has not yet appeared. In fact, the Harper government has now given money to an existing pasta plant in the east. It was no surprise that during the federal election the WCWGA

was in Regina dancing like puppets to support the fallacy of a pasta plant being built there.

It’s not too late for the WCWGA to align itself with producers, lose its connection to the corporate world, and wean itself from federal agriculture grants. It could join the majority of farmers that support farmers having some control of their own industry like they did with the single-desk CWB. If the WCWGA continues to support the middlemen, its fate as well as that of the Tory government, will

be sealed and they will be gone after the next federal election.

Neither should a person who causes harm to animals be handled with a “more deft touch,” no matter what the situation.

In fact, because almost ever y aspect of an animal’s life is in the control of humans, and often (as in the case of farms) out of the sight of the public, perhaps it’s our responsibility to be even more sensitive to crimes against them, as such crimes always consist of causing pain, suffering and mental distress to a living being.

CWRS (13.5) wheat was $11.38 a bushel port price. Prairie farmers received $4.69 (41 percent of port price) with railways and elevators receiving 59 percent.

By contrast, in 2009-10 single desk port price was $6.82 bu. with farmers receiving $6.16 bu. (90 percent of port price); 2008-09 single desk port price was $8.64 bu. with farmers receiving $8.10 (93 percent); 200708 single desk port price was $10.61 with farmers receiving $9.99 (94 percent).

The single desk CWB could load specific grain from multiple terminals, which often gained dispatch benefits rather than demurrage costs, which of course, was to farmers’ benefit.

Does Anderson really think private grain traders are going to take grain from competitive terminals?

No matter how many times Anderson and company say it, the single desk CWB did not buy farmers’ grain, it marketed it with all profits accruing to the producer — not private, for-profit grain traders.

The single desk CWB not only marketed farmers grain, it co-ordinated grain sales, transportation logistics, and the efficient use of port terminal facilities. It also kept railways in line as well as limiting the production of GMOs. It’s time the “Harperites” removed their ideological blinkers and put some truth in their own statements before farmers become another endangered species.

Each day I update our #plant15 photo contest with new photos, and this task is taking up an increasing share of my day.

Dozens of photos are submitted some days, and the contest album now contains more than 300 images.

But like I said, it’s a good problem because we’ve received some incredible photos.

Agriculture groups and equipment manufacturers have directed their customers and Twitter followers to The Western Producer photo contest. We appreciate the great support.

I’m also thankful to everyone who has sent us images. This photo contest has helped us get to know many producers through Facebook and Twitter. The many conversations we’ve had have been enlightening and fun.

This is our fourth social mediabased photo contest, and they continue to grow in size with an increasing number of submissions each time.

We have received a wide range of pictures.

I’m a bit of a technology nerd, and I’ve been impressed by the pictures of operators with multiple state-ofthe-art rigs out in the field working together.

However, I have to admit my favourite images depict people and families working together at this crucial time of the year. Some images show multiple generations working together out on the field.

There are also many pictures with children watching their parents’ work, sometimes from inside the cab, which may revive some childhood memories for many of you.

This year there has been a sharp rise in submissions that were taken with drones. I like the vantage point this amazing technology provides.

As many of you know, farming can be a solitary profession as you watch the hours, days and fields go bypass by pass from the tractor cab.

GRAIN TRANSPORTATION

Conservatives cost farmers billions: Goodale Deputy leader of the Liberal party stopped in at Western Producer offices for a wide-ranging discussion with the Editorial Board

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

That system and the way it failed is a direct product of the way that Gerry Ritz and Stephen Harper set it up, designed it â&#x20AC;Ś and implemented it.

RALPH GOODALE, DEPUTY LEADER OF THE LIBERAL PARTY

A Liberal government in Ottawa would take immediate steps to improve grain transportation in Western Canada, starting with a full rail costing review to examine railway operating costs and revenues derived from moving prairie grain.

Ralph Goodale, a senior member of the federal Liberal party, accused the federal Conservatives of making a â&#x20AC;&#x153;colossal messâ&#x20AC;? of Western Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

grain handling and transportation system, adding that railway tie-ups, logistical inefficiencies, historically wide basis levels and Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s failure to devise a better system for moving prairie grain have cost the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farmers $5 billion over the past two or three years.

That figure does not include lost market opportunities that emerged after the elimination of single-desk grain marketing but were never fully developed due to poor logistical co-ordination and limited rail

capacity, he added.

The Conservative government â&#x20AC;&#x153;made a huge, colossal mess,â&#x20AC;? said Goodale, who visited The Western Producerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s editorial offices May 22. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That system and the way it failed is a direct product of the way that Gerry Ritz and Stephen Harper set it up, designed it â&#x20AC;Ś and implemented it.â&#x20AC;?

Goodale, a former federal agriculture minister, said Liberal efforts to clean up the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mess would begin with a railway costing review, which he said would sit well with most farm groups in Western Canada.

The last time Ottawa conducted a full costing review was in 1992.

He also suggested that railway revenue caps or maximum revenue entitlements would likely be retained by a Liberal government unless the costing review produced a â&#x20AC;&#x153;startlinglyâ&#x20AC;? unexpected result. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before you have any discussion about the revenue cap, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to have a costing review to get the facts,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That would be a very useful exercise to examine whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happened with the (rail) efficiencies over time, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gained, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lost and how is the revenue being shared within the systemâ&#x20AC;Ś?â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;After 22 years, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably a good time to update that arithmetic.â&#x20AC;?

Goodale also suggested that a Justin Trudeau government would consider the creation of a new agency, with government oversight, to manage grain logistics and ensure that resources within the grain handling and transportation system are being used efficiently. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You need some way of quarterbacking the system because it is so complicated and the value chain so far has not, by the magic hand of the market, produced some kind of adequate quarterbacking.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;That function previously was performed by the wheat board, (but) itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not there any more, so what is the alternative?â&#x20AC;?

Observers say the creation of such an organization is already one of the ideas being discussed as part of a Canada Transportation Act review process being led by former federal politician David Emerson.

A federally appointed CTA review panel is expected to report to government with its recommendations before the end of the year.

Goodale said a Liberal government would define what constitutes adequate service to rail shippers, develop clear ways to measure railway performance and implement a system that ensures adequate service at a reasonable cost.

He did not rule out the use of legislation or regulations that include monetary penalties against railways in the event that they fail to meet their contractual obligations to shippers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A legislative result is not necessarily the best one but if thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the only way you can get accountability into the system, then that is a recourse that you have to have available,â&#x20AC;?

Goodale said. brian.cross@producer.com

POLICE INVESTIGATION

Man charged in alleged scam

Feds may have supply management on negotiating table, says Goodale

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

A Lethbridge man has been charged with three offences in relation to a scam involving hay purchases and sales in southern Alberta and possibly beyond.

Scott James Piggott, 33, has been charged with fraud over $5,000, theft over $5,000, and false pretenses over $5,000 following an alleged $800,000 in hay deals.

Piggott was arrested last week and has since been released on bail. He is scheduled to appear in provincial court in Taber, Alta., on June 23.

The Taber Police Service stated in a news release, that the alleged fraud occurred between March and July of

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The deputy leader of the Liberal Party of Canada is hearing hints that the federal government is willing to make sacrifices to supply management to be part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement.

Ralph Goodale says it is hard to tell what is going on behind closed doors with the negotiations, but he gets a sense that changes are coming to the supply managed dairy, poultry and egg sectors.

“The (agriculture) minister has made some vague references to providing compensation and that sort of raises the question, compensation for what?”

Goodale said minister Gerry Ritz seems to be speaking out of both sides of his mouth. On one side he talks about the government’s unwavering support for supply management. On the other side he is making veiled references to some form of compensation.

“Two or three times in the House (of Commons) that sentence has sort of fallen into his answer to a question,” said Goodale, a former agriculture minister.

One of those times was April 30 when Ritz was speaking at a Commons agriculture committee meeting.

“We did make the pledge that should there be any negativity through the producer level in these free trade agreements, like the European Union free trade agreement, they will be compensated and kept whole,” he said.

Ritz went on to say that the government was “unequivocal” in its support for supply management in the TPP negotiations but then once again hinted that changes could be coming.

“Of course we have trade reliant sectors in this country as well. We look at it in a holistic way but at the same time with an eye on supply management to keep it as workable as we absolutely can.”

Goodale is also skeptical about the fate of Bill C-48, proposed legislation designed to modernize the Canadian Grain Commission.

The bill was introduced in Parliament on Dec. 9, 2014, but hasn’t progressed past first reading and there are concerns it will die on the order paper before Parliament adjourns in a few weeks.

“It was presented as something that was urgent, important and needed to get done but then lost all momentum,” said Goodale.

Among other things, the bill would extend producer access to binding determination of grade and dockage, allow the commission to establish a compensation fund in the event a licensee fails to pay and create a class of license for container loading facilities.

Goodale said there seemed to be consensus approval of the bill among farm groups, so he is puzzled why the legislation has stalled.

“I don’t know whether Mr. Ritz was facing some internal pressure maybe from some farm organizations.”

The fate of the bill will be revealed when the government House leader sets out his agenda for the remaining weeks before Parliament is dissolved.

GERRY RITZ FEDERAL AGRICULTURE MINISTER, SPEAKING AT A COMMONS AGRICULTURAL COMMITTEE MEETING

2013. Police said a Taber area agriculture business was defrauded of more than $800,000 when it was not reimbursed for hay.

Inspector Graham Abela of the Taber Police Service said May 25 that the investigation involved large amounts of financial data, including invoices and bills, and involved liaison with the Calgary police department.

He said information from Canada and the United States was examined before charges were laid.

Abela said Piggott came to the community in early 2013.

Abela said it is possible there are other victims of the alleged scam, though none have come forward since news of the charges. Anyone believing they are affected should contact local police.

Salmonella found on poultry farms poses no risk

More than 50,000 birds have been destroyed after an outbreak of salmonella enteritidis in five Alberta egg laying barns.

The birds can be traced back to the same hatchery, said David Webb, communications manager with Egg Farmers of Alberta.

The salmonella enteritidis was discovered during routine testing of a three-week-old pullet flock. The bacteria was traced back to the hatchery and then to the additional flocks.

Five pullet flocks and one layer flock have been destroyed. Another pullet flock was destroyed before leaving the hatchery, said Webb.

The organization reports that none of the infected chickens were old enough to lay eggs and the public was never at risk from infection.

The eggs were discovered as part of the organization’s mandatory Start Clean-Stay Clean Program that was implemented in 1990 for layers and made mandatory in 2007.

The program was made mandatory for pullets in 2011 following a salmonella enteritidis outbreak.

“It was found as part of our routine investigation. No eggs from the farm went to a retailer. None hit the market,” said Webb.

The name of the hatchery hasn’t been released.

Salmonella enteritidis is one of 2,500 species of salmonella. It is typically carried in the intestines of birds and can make chicks sick during their first few weeks of life, said Alberta’s chief provincial veterinarian Gerald Hauer.

He said it can also be passed on through eggs and can make people sick.

“That is why we take it very seriously in the table egg laying industry.

We don’t want people to get sick when they don’t completely cook the yolks of their egg.”

As part of the program, Alberta Agriculture officials take samples from breeder flocks and hatcheries throughout the year. Egg Farmers of Alberta are responsible for testing breeder flocks and hatcheries.

Since 1997, there have been 32 positive salmonella enteritidis outbreaks. Nine were related to an outbreak in 2010-11.

Hauer said cleaning and disinfecting barns that contain commercial flocks is made relatively easy by spraying and disinfecting the smooth concrete or puck board.

But cleaning the area in backyard flocks isn’t as simple. Hauer said they are working with the hatchery to contact the owners of the backyard flocks on how to control the bacteria.

“We are going to communicate directly with people who bought chicks from the hatchery,” said Hauer.

Insects and rodents can carry the bacteria into the cracks of old concrete or into the soil, making it difficult to properly clean areas where backyard chickens live. mary.macarthur@producer.com

FEDERAL SUPPORT

Early government programs geared to offset poor yields FROM THE ARCHIVES

75 YEARS AGO: MAY 30, 1940 Conservative MPs pressed the federal government for answers as to whether it intended to close the Winnipeg Grain Exchange because of the war. The Liberals said government policy in dealing with the wheat surplus and lower prices would be up for discussion in the House of Commons, but “not at this time.”

War and served as its president for a time. His letter writing in support of Churchill and the rail line to the port

was described as relentless. bruce.dyck@producer.com

The federal government collected $2.1 million from prairie farmers and contributed $9 million to the bonus fund of the Prairie Farm Assistance Act. Under it, one percent of the value of grain delivered to elevators was deducted for the fund, which then paid acreage bonuses when farmers had exceptionally poor yields based on wheat under 12 bushels per acre.

As of March 31, the program had collected $307,418 from Manitoba farmers, $1,166,586 from Saskatchewan and $628,249 from Alberta.

50 YEARS AGO: MAY 27, 1965 A new deal with China involving 50 million bushels of wheat was announced at the same time that negotiators worked to avert a grain strike in Vancouver. The sale was part of a bigger deal that Canada and China signed in 1963, in which China agreed to buy a minimum of 112 million bu. over three years. The grain handling companies had agreed to a wage increase, but a sticking point was their reluctance to drop a damage lawsuit against the union over a weeklong walkout the previous September.

Simply the fastest, most durable, and easy to use augers you can buy.

Hard times on the farm prompted farmers, businesspeople and clergy from the Craik, Davidson and Kenaston areas of central Saskatchewan to form the Farm and Town Self-Help Movement. It was estimated that 30 percent of the 90 farmers in the Rural Municipality of Craik had been through the federal Farm Debt Review Board or its provincial equivalent by Feb. 15.

That’s Powerful Value. Delivered.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development warned that it would only be a few years before Eastern Europe became a force to be reckoned with in world grain markets.

The European Union’s common agricultural policy would be one of the first casualties, it warned.

AGRICULTURE IN THE CLASSROOM

Organization to expand ag education

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Wanted: two-cylinder JD tractors New Alberta group passionate about restoring and showcasing the vintage workhorse

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

A newly formed tractor club is firing on all cylinders — all two of them.

The Western Canadian John Deere Two Cylinder Club is up and running and planning its first major gathering July 30-31, just before the annual show at Heritage Acres Farm Museum near Pincher Creek, Alta.

Ken Lewis sold John Deere farm equipment for 40 years in the Pincher Creek region and now dedicates time to the new club.

“Our goal is to encourage and preserve the John Deere two cylinder tractors,” he said.

“These tractors played a large part in the life of pioneer farmers.”

The new club is inviting John Deere enthusiasts from across Western Canada to bring their tractors and interest to the event, which will feature field demonstrations, tractor pulls and a parade of power.

The Heritage Acres annual show,

scheduled for July 31-Aug. 3, will showcase the John Deere brand this year.

Two-cylinder tractors were the first mechanized replacements for horses in agricultural use. Lewis said they provided dependable, low-cost power.

Lewis has a JD 830, which he said will out-pull his six-cylinder JD 4010.

Heritage Acres has a 1920 Waterloo Boy John Deere in full working order, which Lewis said will have pride of place at this year’s event.

“It’s original and it runs just like a

TWO CYLINDER JOHN DEERE TRACTORS RANGED FROM

Nine to 60 horsepower “They’d run forever,” he said while admitting his bias toward green and yellow.

“They were strong. They had big pistons in them. They’re a great old tractor. They run slow. You run them slow and they just cough and they move.”

new one.”

Also featured will be a 1925 Model D owned by Gerald Lewis, which was delivered new to the region many years ago and originally purchased by the Stuckey family.

Lewis said there are about 50 John Deere tractors in the Heritage Acres

shop, most of them two cylinder models.

Daniel Stewart, executive director of Heritage Acres, said the added aspect to the annual show is welcomed.

“If you’re just a general tractor enthusiast, you’re great to come out.

If you’re really specifically loving the John Deere, then this year will be perfect for you to come out,” he said.

“I think any event that’s going to bring on a group of individuals who are as passionate as the two cylinder John Deere guys is definitely going to be a positive effect to what we’re trying to show out here.”

Lewis said the smallest two cylinder Deeres have about nine horsepower and ranged from there up to about 60 horsepower.

The last of them were built in 1959, followed by four and six cylinder models. Today, the largest John Deere tractors have more than 500 h.p.

In 2000, Johanne Ross ran a poorly funded, one-woman effort to educate Manitoba kids about farming and food production.

Since those humble beginnings, Ross has turned Agriculture in the Classroom Manitoba into a potent organization that employs eight people and reaches more than 40,000 students in the province annually.

Ross’ dedication and determination to make kids aware of food production and career opportunities in agriculture was rewarded in May, when she became the inaugural chair of Agriculture in the Classroom (AITC) Canada, a new national voice for agriculture education.

On its website at www. aitc-canada. ca, the organization describes its goals as enhancing the “knowledge, understanding and appreciation of agriculture” by collaborating with schools and educators across Canada.

Ross said provincial Ag in the Classroom associations already co-operate on projects and programs, but a national organization will build upon and expand that collaboration.

“I don’t want to call it an umbrella (group). But (it) will be a voice on behalf of the provinces, so we can really bring attention to agriculture education across the country,” said Ross, who lives on a farm near Minnedosa, Man. Trish Jordan, past president of Ag in the Classroom Manitoba, said Ross’s enthusiasm for education and agriculture sets her apart.

“If I was going to choose any word to describe Johanne, I would use passionate,” said Jordan, public and industry affairs director with Monsanto Canada.

Christa Wright, of AITC Newfoundland and Labrador, said Ross has already championed national ag awareness campaigns, such as Canadian Agriculture Literacy Week.

“Her collaborative nature and knowledge of agriculture issues across Canada makes her the ideal leader to shepherd AITC-Canada into this exciting next phase.”

Ross will work half time as chair of AITC Canada and maintain her job as executive director for AITC Manitoba. AITC Manitoba recently partnered with the Canadian Foodgrains Bank to develop a teacher resource called Challenging Conditions.

Ross will also dedicate her time building relationships with potential partners. She hopes to turn AITC Canada into a national organization, as British Columbia, Quebec, New Brunswick do not have Ag in the Classroom organizations.

“We want all the provinces in Canada and the Territories at our table.” robert.arnason@producer.com

NUTRITION

Skin smart diets offer preventive health assistance TEAM RESOURCES

JODIE MIROSOVSKY, BSHEc

T

he older I get, the more interested I become in preventive health.

My grandparents warned me that a lifetime is a short experience and that you have to look after yourself to make the most of it.

This time of year is filled with exhilaration, and getting outdoors is such a treat after the long, cool and windy winter and spring that we have been dealt this year.

I have heard many say that their skin is suffering because of our elements, but if we were practising preventive health, our skin would feel soft and supple rather than dry and flaky.

If big smiles bring on a pulling sensation across the face and hands are so dry that back rubs turn into an exfoliation process rather than a massage, it’s time for hydration.

Our skin is our largest organ and should be well maintained because it is our body’s barrier to the outside world.

A skin smart diet is a great place to start. Food and drink can get us energized and glowing again, while the nutrients that are delivered will provide protection from the elements, including sun and wind.

Water: Mentioning the importance of drinking water might be considered repetitive, but it is always worth the reminder. We all know what plants look like without water, and humans are the same. Water plumps us up and allows our bodies to function optimally. To determine how much you require each day, divide your weight by two to get the number of ounces of water you need and then divide that by eight to get the number of cups. Source: Kraft Canada.

Green tea: Studies show that sipping four cups of polyphenal-rich green tea, hot or cold, can reduce the effects of the elements by up to 25 percent. Try green tea ginger ale, or add brewed tea to your smoothies if straight up is not your thing.

Vitamin C rich berries: Fresh berries are abundant when the weather gets warmer, but make sure to make your choices benefit your health to the fullest.

Deep coloured blueberries are a top pick because they protect us from free radicals and inflammation, both of which speed up the aging process and make us more prone to disease.

They are noted for their assistance in protecting against sun damage and supporting eye health, and we can’t afford not to eat them.

Throw back a fresh handful when you need fuel, or enjoy a few frozen berries on your tongue when you need cooling.

Strawberries and raspberries also pack a vitamin C punch.

Any fresh produce that is brightly coloured with red, orange, yellow, green or pink, including tomato fruit, lemons and vegetables such as spinach and kale, will be full of carotenoids, which block damage to our cells, help our health and produce a

Fruit, nuts, flax and chocolate are packed with vitamins and antioxidants that make you feel and look good. | smooth soft complexion.

An apple a day: Eating a fibre-rich apple will deliver the antioxidant quercetin, which is noted for its ability to ward off skin, prostate, lung and breast cancer.

Chocolate: Indulge in delectable dark chocolate to tame your junk food cravings. The flavonoids in dark chocolate help keep skin cells plump, hydrated and functioning properly.

One square inch a day should do.

Get nutty: A handful of raw nuts such as almonds and walnuts is rich in omegas, selenium and vitamin E for skin repair and maintenance. If you can’t do plain, opt for lightly salted with sea salt.

Flax oil/seeds and olive oil: These choices are rich in antioxidants and add healthy essential fatty acids to your diet. As a result, eating them regularly will make your skin glow and your hair shine.

Oats : Whole grain, low glycemic oats lend vitamin E to our system as well as the mineral zinc. You can easily incorporate them into your diet by adding a handful to your morning smoothie.

Diet helps produce healthy skin from the inside, but we still must make responsible choices for the outer layer of our body.

I am guilty of having too many personal care products in my possession and admit that I am a cream, shampoo and bubble bath junkie. I am always in awe when I get to the back of my vanity and discover that I use only a few of the products that I am storing.

Research shows that the chemicals we put on our skin are absorbed into our bodies, which means it is time to do better. This includes becoming aware of ingredients that pose risk and using sunscreen to protect skin while outdoors for extended periods of time.

Here is an updated list of some of the ingredients that should be avoid-

ed or at least used with caution: • BHA and BHT • DEA, MEA and TEA • formaldehyde releasing preservatives such as dibutyl phthalate, DMDM hydantoin, diazolidinyl urea, imidazolidinyl urea and methenamine • parabens • palm oil • parfum/fragrance • PEG • petrolatum/paraffin/mineral oil • phthalates • sodium laureth sulfate and sodium lauryl sulfate • triclosan • oxybenzone and octinoxate As well, check labels to prevent health problems in humans and wildlife and fish, such as production waste contamination in the environment.

1/2 c. water 125 mL 1/2 c. brewed and cooled 125 mL green tea 1 /2 c. frozen or fresh 125 mL blueberries 1 / 2 c. frozen or fresh 125 mL strawberries or raspberries 2 tbsp. walnuts or almonds 30 mL 1 / 4 c. oats 60 mL handful of fresh kale or spinach 1 tbsp. extra virgin olive 15 mL oil or flax (in oil or seed form) squeeze of fresh lemon Add an additional splash of water if the mixture is too thick.

Note: if you are using fresh fruits add in a few ice cubes to chunk up the mix. Place the ingredients in a blender. Cover, blend until smooth.

ROSEMARY’S FAMOUS FACE CREAM

The Environmental Working Group, which researches sunscreen safety, has concluded that sun blocks with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are considered to be this year’s best choice for health and protection.

They reflect light off the skin.

The companies Badger and Green Beaver earned approval in tests and are available at local drug and health food stores.

Solar Protective Moisturizer SPF 30

by Devita, available at amazon.ca or a local health food store, is my personal favourite.

Here is a recipe for making your own moistur izing cream. I am hooked on this concoction, and its only downfall is that it is so fresh that it has to be stored in the refrigerator. .

Group I ingredients 3/4 c. grape seed oil 175 mL other natural oils such as avocado, apricot and almond oil can be used, but grape seed oil is the lightest and least oily and therefore the best suited for most teenagers’ skin.

1/3 c. coconut oil and 80 mL /or cocoa butter 1 tsp. grated beeswax 5 mL

SKIN SMART SMOOTHIE RECIPE

Group II ingredients 2/3 c. distilled water 160 mL 1/3 c. aloe vera gel 80 mL (pure with no alcohol)

This blended mix includes many of the nutrient rich ingredients.

Melt the beeswax over very low heat, stir in the other oils and mix well.

Pour into a blender and let sit on the counter overnight to let it come completely to room temperature.

Source: Herbal Healing for Women

Moisturizing cream made with coconut oil and aloe has a soothing effect.

1-2 drops essential oils for scent (optional, such as rose, jasmine, lemon, lavender) Blend Group II ingredients in a glass mixing bowl or measuring bowl and then turn on the blender and slowly drizzle the Group II ingredients as the blender mixes the Group I ingredients.

The end result will be a creamy, white, rich looking cream.

Store in a glass jar in the fridge.

Supermarket suggestions Here are some top picks for those who want to buy a moisture balm or lotion: • Live Clean (fragrance free) body lotion • Skinfix Healing Foot & Leg Balm • Skinfix Body Repair Balm The last step for sun protection and skin health is to find shade under sprawling branches when the sun is peaking between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.

PARENTING DILEMMA

Handling temper tantrums SPEAKING OF LIFE

JACKLIN ANDREWS, BA, MSW

Q:

I would like to help my daughter-in-law but I am not too sure how. She is having a rough time with her two and a half-year-old. The problem is that he is starting to have some temper tantrums. He had a couple in the grocery store and apparently he lost it in church last Sunday. My daughter-in-law is both embarrassed and ashamed. She is convinced that if she were a better parent her little boy would not have these horrible tantrums. What can I tell her?

A:

Most kids between the ages of two and four have temper tantrums and they do not reflect on the ability of the parent or the psychological well being of the child.

Life is frustrating for small children. At times they cannot tell you what they want, other times they cannot move fast enough to get to where they want to be. Sometimes they have no idea of what is wrong at the moment.

Temper tantrums are moments of emotion. The trick is to handle them appropriately.

Your daughter-in-law’s first task is to settle herself down. She is of no value to her son when she is upset.

Her best bet is to plan activities and outings better. If she and her son have to go to the store, they could try to do so when he is rested and in a decent mood. She should have a snack for him and try to make shopping as much fun as she can.

The more that your daughter-inlaw is calm herself, the better she will deal with the inevitable temper tantrum.

It is best not give in to a temper tantrum, even if she was planning to buy whatever it is that her son is screaming for. She can always get it at another time when her son is not quite so upset.

The problem with giving in to a temper tantrum is that it will encourage the child to keep repeating the behaviour to get whatever it wants.

The rule of thumb for dealing with temper tantrums is to remove the child from the immediate environment in which he or she is acting out.

If the child is acting out at home and in the kitchen, a time out in the bedroom is appropriate. In public places, when possible, the child should be taken outside or to the car as quickly as possible.

The goal is to reduce the stimulation that is going on and allow time for him to settle down. The more that your daughter-in-law is able to do that, the greater are the chances she can again enjoy her time in the grocery store or at an outing.

COMMUNITY BUSINESS

The little restaurateurs that could Vancouverites develop a reputation for offering an elegant dining experience in this small Saskatchewan town

BY CHRISTALEE FROESE FREELANCE WRITER

Actress Bridie Lunde is on stage tonight.

But she’s not starring in a theatre production, a musical or a local play.

She’s playing hostess at her restaurant in Mortlach, Sask.

As she delights the incoming audience with her words of welcome and lighthearted laughter, the smell from the kitchen foretells of a night of fancy feasting.

Lunde smiles when she recalls the June day in 2012 when her mother, a Moose Jaw real estate agent, called her in Vancouver.

“The Holly Hock Market in Mortlach is for sale,” said her mother.

“Oh, and you’re telling me this because …” replied a confounded Lunde.

While the 25-year-old Vancouver actress thought the phone call was all in fun, she ended up buying the small-town market.

“I had no game plan when I got here. I just wanted to see what Sask-

atchewan wanted,” said Lunde.

She took down false ceilings and unearthed stained-glass windows in the 1912 building and began envisioning a trendy restaurant with an adjoining food market. There was only one problem with her vision — it required a chef.

While Lunde was comfortable with being the decorator, ambiance-setter and front-of-house manager for the restaurant of her dreams, she needed a professionally trained chef who was willing to relocate to Mortlach. She knew her Vancouver friend Jon Staszczak was her man.

“Bridie called me up one day and asked if I would be the lead chef at her

restaurant in Mortlach. I said ‘absolutely not.’ ” Having worked his way into the position of sous chef at a successful Vancouver restaurant, the Wynyardborn Staszczak was not about to pull up stakes and move to a hamlet of 300.

But as days turned into months, the promise of the little restaurant on the prairie began to take hold of the chef’s imagination and he eventually agreed to join Lunde as the Little Red Market Cafe’s one and only chef.

Staszczak worked on a unique menu using local ingredients for dishes like duck breast served with Sante Fe

cherry relish and pan seared Diefenbaker trout with carrot-tarragon sauce and lemon scented quinoa.

Lunde and Staszczak were sensitive to the fact that their new menu in their new town had to include something familiar and hearty. So they added staples like stuffed chicken, an open-face Sloppy Joe and spaghetti with meat sauce.

“The first couple of months we sold more spaghetti than braised lamb shank and duck breast combined.

But as the word got out, our clientele changed and people started driving one, two and even three hours to eat here,” said Staszczak.

The Little Red Market Café, open Wednesday through Saturday for lunch and supper and Sunday for brunch, is now booked to capacity with reservations required a month in advance.

‘I’m a performer,” added Lunde.

“I put on a dinner party every night and that’s exactly what we hear from people is that it feels like they had dinner and a show in a place that was as comfortable as their friend’s house.”

Medical marijuana rules HEALTH CLINIC

CLARE ROWSON, MD

Q:

Will you please explain what the medical indications are for being allowed to smoke marijuana? I was allowed to grow a certain amount for my own use in Ontario, but now I am not sure if I am allowed to do this anymore. Do I have to buy it from government sources?

I have chronic back pain due to an old injury, and regular painkiller pills are not working any more. The marijuana seems to be the only thing that helps.

A:

pain, chronic non-cancer pain, cancer pain, pain associated with various types of arthritis and fibromyalgia. It may also be good for some kinds of headaches and migraines.

You are not allowed to grow your own and can buy it for medical purposes only from an approved and licensed producer.

Carabinoids found in marijuana may also be helpful even when there is no pain in diseases such as AIDS and in palliative care for terminal illnesses because they can help stimulate appetite. Patients undergoing chemotherapy may find that nausea and vomiting is reduced.

There are many other potential medical uses for marijuana that are still under investigation, including neurological conditions such as ALS, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease, some types of liver disease and inflammatory bowel diseases, including irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn’s.

Health Canada has issued a document at www.hc-sc.gc.ca/dhpmps/alt_formats/pdf/marihuana/ med/infoprof-eng.pdf. that can provide more technical details.

The new laws have decriminalized the use of marijuana (cannabis) in small quantities for medical purposes, as long as your doctors can show that you have not responded well to conventional medical treatments.

Stielow’s husband, Bob, just happened to meet a member of the Thiel family, who mentioned that their family’s 52-year-old greenhouse business was for sale.

Between Nadine’s love of gardening and Bob’s entrepreneurial and business skills, the couple had the right combination of naïveté and moxie.

a partner and a mentor I could trust to keep the business aspect. I knew I didn’t have to learn that all at once,” Nadine said during a busy spring weekday.

This winter, five years after buying the business, Nadine received the Alberta Greenhouse Growers Association Grower of the Year award for her innovation and enthusiasm for expanding the greenhouse into a consumer destination.

“I didn’t receive the award because I know everything about greenhouses and growing. I got it for my tenacity and ability to run the facility,” said Nadine, who remembers coming to Thiel’s as a child with her mother and grandmother.

“I learned my love of gardening and planting from my mom,” said Nadine, who grew up on a farm in nearby Josephburg. “The roots run deep in a family of farmers.”

Nadine and Bob bought the family farm from her parents, Norm and Shirley Smith, who now help out in the greenhouse.

“It fills me up to work with my mom and dad every day,” said Nadine.

“In a stressful situation, it’s nice to have family members handy.”

The Stielows’ three children, Malcolm, Derrick and Anthony, all have worked in the greenhouse at some point. As well, Bob spends most evenings and weekends there fixing and building.

The couple have built additional greenhouses, added self-watering lines to improve efficiency and tapped into the growing container gardening industry.

Dozens of small pots with lettuce and other vegetables are pre-planted for apartment and balcony gardens.

Instead of growing cucumbers with a two metre-trailing vine, they sell cucumber varieties suitable for containers.

ent vegetables.”

The greenhouse is located an hour east of Edmonton in Alberta’s Heartland region, which is home to energy upgraders and plenty of discretionary income that can be spent on gardening.

It’s not uncommon for farmers and acreage owners to back up a pick-up truck at the Bruderheim location and fill it with flowers and shrubs.

Urban buyers at the Fort Saskatchewan location likely spend the same amount, but they pick up plants every day after work for three weeks.

Nadine expanded the wholesale plant business soon after buying the business. The greenhouse grows 10,000 geraniums for sale in other greenhouses across the province.

They have also developed contracts with local municipalities and nearby towns and cities to supply the baskets that hang on municipal lamp posts.

“As a local owner of an independent garden centre, I appreciate the municipalities coming to me.”

In a half-built greenhouse behind the existing greenhouses, Nadine tosses out the idea of a floating lettuce bed that will allow them to grow fresh lettuce and herbs year round.

It’s a way of tapping into the growing trend of buying local food.

“People want to source their food locally,” she said.

“We know we’re in the right direction growing food as well as flowers.”

MODERNIZATION OF CANADA’S GRAIN INDUSTRY ACT

NFU fears changes favour grain firms over farmers Chief commissioner addressed concerns that the Western Standards Committee could be stacked to the detriment of grain growers

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The National Farmers Union says Bill C-48 would eliminate the Canadian Grain Commission’s ability to put farmers’ interests ahead of multibillion-dollar grain companies.

The bill, dubbed the Modernization of Canada’s Grain Industry Act, was tabled in Parliament Dec. 9.

One major aspect of the bill is that it changes the commission’s mandate from acting in the interest of grain producers to acting in the interests of Canadians and grain producers.

Terry Boehm, chair of the NFU’s seed and trade committee, said it sounds like a subtle difference, but it isn’t.

“It will ultimately destroy the rationale and the purpose of the grain commission because grain companies, railways, et cetera, will be in that all Canadians category,” he said.

“When you change that mandate, that institution ultimately will become dominated by the very interests that would exploit farmers.”

Elwin Hermanson, chief commissioner of the CGC, said the change is being made to better reflect the real-

ity that the commission deals with a variety of stakeholders and has to be impartial and arm’s-length in those dealings, such as when it is settling grade or dockage disputes.

“Nobody expects us to grade in favour of a producer, but there has been allegations in the past that we would take the producer’s side because of the way the act is constructed,” he said.

Hermanson said Bill C-48 strengthens another provision in the act, directing the commission to provide protection and support to producers.

“While it says we have a mandate to serve Canadians, it also points out that we have some special responsibility to serve producers,” he said.

Another bone of contention for the NFU is that the bill opens the door to political interference at the commission because it gives the federal agriculture minister the ability to appoint and dismiss members of the western and eastern standards committees.

Boehm worries Bill C-48 makes it possible for a minister who is coopted by grain companies to stack the committees in such a way that top grades become impossible to achieve.

Hermanson said the current act allows the commission to make appointments, but they are subject to approval of the minister.

“Rather than going through that charade, the act just basically now states that the minister is responsible to make the appointment and he would do that on the recommendation of the CGC,” he said.

Hermanson said there is no way

While it says we have a mandate to serve Canadians, it also points out that we have some special responsibility to serve producers.

ELWIN HERMANSON CANADIAN GRAINS COMMISSION

committees can be stacked against producers because of the way they are comprised.

For instance, the Western Standards Committee has 12 producer representatives, three exporters and three grain handlers.

The proposed legislation would also allow the commission to establish and administer a fund to augment an insurance-based producer payment protection program.

The program would be easier to administer and cheaper than the current system, which requires licensees to take out financial instruments that combined tie up about $1 billion in grain industry capital.

Hermanson said most bankruptcies in the grain industry result in less than $1 million in unpaid liabilities.

The fund would be used to pay out those small amounts, reducing the premiums required to protect farm-

ers against large failures.

The NFU worries small companies would have higher insurance premiums than large companies under the insurance based scheme because they are at a higher risk for non-payment.

It also believes there would be an increased risk under an insurance system, of farmers receiving only partial coverage when a company goes out of business.

Some industry observers have speculated that the federal government does not have time to pass the legislation in Parliament before the fall election.

Hermanson said he has seen Parliament pass bills in one day, but the track record on previous legislation to modernize the commission hasn’t been good with four failed attempts.

He said Bill C-48 is not a contentious piece of legislation. There is no proposal to get rid of the producer payment security program altogether like there was in some of the previous bills.

However, he worries that the bill isn’t high enough on the government’s agenda because it does not have coast-to-coast appeal.

“The clock is ticking and the further we go into May without any debate, the less likely the bill will pass before the House rises,” said Hermanson.

Boehm said he would be surprised if the bill dies on the order paper.

“This Conservative government seems to be very good at pushing bills through as they choose,” he said. sean.pratt@producer.com

SPECIAL CROP

Longer days yield more fibre: hemp researcher While an Alberta processing facility is busy, contracted fibre acres remain on the horizon

BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Most of Alberta’s hemp acres are located in the southern part of the province, but the crop has a “northern advantage,” says a researcher.

Ongoing work in the province is showing the crop’s potential in the Peace region, where growers can produce a taller, more fibrous stalk, said Jan Slaski of Alberta Innovates Technology Futures.

This year will be the second in a four-year trial evaluating the performance of nine hemp varieties in Lethbridge, Vegreville and Faller.

“We found that by virtue of growing the same cultivar in the north, in the Peace, we are getting one-third, or in some instances, twice as much fibre as the same cultivar grown in the south,” said Slaski.

The study is using new and old varieties as well as fibre and dual purpose cultivars.

Breeders have traditionally pursued shorter plants, which are favoured by buyers interested in hemp seed.

Almost all of the acres grown today are for grain crops, with major buyers in Manitoba seeking seed, oil and protein for food markets.

“Hemp is a short-day plant, so long days delay flowering…. Hemp elongates or grows until flowers are set,” said Slaski.

“So automatically in the north, when we are getting these 18 hours of daylight at the end of June and the beginning of July, hemp just grows taller and produces more biomass or fibre.”

Taller plants can be processed for their fibre to produce fabrics and industrial materials, but fibre markets have proven elusive.

However, Slaski said business is picking up at Alberta Innovates’ processing facility in Vegreville.

The pilot scale facility is capable of processing one tonne of fibre per hour. Slaski said the organization will work with at least five companies this year to test potential products.

“Our capacity … was not meant to be a commercial scale or commercial capacity,” said Slaski.

A commercial facility would process at least seven tonnes per hour, he added.

“But since there is a need … we are prepared to serve.”

He said the demand is enough that a second shift could be required this fall.

“For the last couple of years, we had guys coming and kicking the tires, (saying) ‘we need 50 kilograms,’ “ said Slaski, who is now fielding requests to process hundreds of tonnes.

“Finally now, these efforts that we made over the last couple of years, they pay off in the sense that we are

SPECIAL CROP

Stable hemp acres expected across Prairies

BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Western Canadian farmers are seeding the same number of hemp acres this spring as they did last year, says an industry official.

About 100,000 acres were contracted last year, said Kim Shukla of the Canadian Hemp Trade Alliance, although only 90,000 acres were seeded.

She expects this year’s total will fall into the same neighbourhood.

“We’re not expecting any huge spike in increase in acres this year,” she said.

Shukla said the numbers are in line with industry projections from a few years ago, with growth increasing from 8,000 acres in 2008.

“One of the things that we can say is that there is a very close connection, probably more so than some other crops, between the market demand and the processors and the producers,” said Shukla.

“They’re very close together and having a conversation so we can ensure that we’re not sitting on any huge volumes of product. The industry is growing incrementally well in all sectors.”

Saskatchewan has led the country in hemp production since 2013, and Shukla expects the same for this year.

“That whole northern area around Carrot River certainly is a really hotbed for hemp.”

Shukla said the industry is preparing to make a submission to Canadian regulators that could pave the way for hemp’s use in poultry seed. Studies have been conducted into the effects of using hemp seed, oil and a byproduct of protein powder production.

“There’s quite a bit of this byproduct available, and for us it was just looked at as another opportunity, rather than it be at this point in time disposed of as waste,” said Shukla. dan.yates@producer.com

Researcher Jan Slaski says the organization may have to add a second shift to meet demand. | FILE PHOTO having real companies that want to build their facilities here, primarily in southern Alberta.”

Officials aren’t expecting hemp acres to increase this year, but Kim Shukla of the Canadian Hemp Trade Alliance has observed a concentra-

tion of interest in hemp fibre in central Alberta, located around the publicly funded Vegreville facility.

“That sort of helped to move that sector along,” she said.

Slaski said the Alberta crop will remain dedicated to contracted

acres of grain and dual purpose varieties for the time being.

“We are not there yet,” he said.

“We are in on the verge of getting to contracted fibre acres.” dan.yates@producer.com

AGRONOMY STUDY

Researcher warns against reliance on soybeans University study finds yields are higher for both soybeans and corn when wheat is in the rotation

BY REBECA KUROPATWA FREELANCE WRITER

Producers must stop seeding backto-back soybean crops in the same field or risk paying a heavy price, says an assistant plants science professor at the University of Guelph.

Dave Hooker said crop rotations are becoming less diverse in the northern corn belt region with shorter

rotations of predominately corn and soybeans, coupled with lower soil quality. The prevailing result of this trend is yield instability.

Some producers want to specialize in fewer crops because multiple crops require more types of specialized machinery and management skill sets.

Others produce more soybeans because input costs are less expen-

sive than corn and soybeans can be planted later in poorly drained, finetextured soil.

“With the number of livestock farms continually decreasing, the need for forage acres decreases,” said Hooker.

“Some producers make decisions on whether to plant a specific crop based solely on the expected yield and market price for that crop without consideration of the impact that crop may have in subsequent years on other crops in the rotation.”

Hooker said he wants to ensure that all producers have access to data so that they can make in-formed decisions when it comes to crop rotations.

He’s doing that partly with 19 years of data from a long-term crop rotation-tillage-nitrogen experiment at the university’s Ridgetown Campus.

It has found that adding wheat to a corn-soybean rotation increases soybean yields by four to six bushels per acre.

“Similarly, corn yields are 15 to 25 bu. per acre higher with wheat in rotation,” he said.

“These results demonstrate that cropping decisions need to consider the impact on future crops.”

Research has shown that soybean yield potential in Ontario and the corn belt states is reduced by 10 percent when the crop is grown back-toback. This is largely because of the increased prevalence of root rot pathogens and a reduction in soil quality.

“Higher frequencies of soybean in rotation may lead to higher risk for damage caused by soybean cyst nematode and greater incidence of white mould,” said Hooker.

However, he said soil quality is the biggest concern, especially when soybean is produced with conventional tillage. The university’s longterm experiments have found that soybean yields in a corn-soybeanwheat rotation were approximately 65 bu. per acre in both no-till and conventional systems.

“However, where soybean was produced continuously, yields were 10 bu. per acre less in conventional till and five bu. per acre less in no-till compared to the yields in the corn-

soybean-wheat rotation,” he said.

“The low yields with conventional tillage is directly attributed to poor soil quality produced by the low biomass-producing soybean crop combined with the use of conventional tillage.”

Data from the University of Wisconsin shows a similar trend of lower yields in shorter rotations with conventional tillage than no-till.

“If some producers choose to plant soybean back-to-back, then they should consider planting a cereal crop following the second year soybean crop to help restore soil quality,” Hooker said.

“Research has shown that tillage to bury soybean residues from the previous year is not necessary, but producers should scout their second year soybean field for diseases and spray a fungicide if necessary.”

Soybean variety selection may be more important because higher disease rates are likely in the second year.

“There should be a greater emphasis on varieties more tolerant to foliar and root diseases,” said Hooker.

HARVEST THREAT

African drought sparks food shortage fears JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (Reuters) — Southern Africa faces possible food shortages over the next few months because of a severe drought in South Africa’s corn belt.

The World Food Programme says a lack of rain had caused crop failure rates of more than 50 percent.

The WFP said corn production in South Africa was estimated to have dropped by a third compared with last year, putting it on track for a harvest of 9.665 million tonnes, its worst in eight years.

Besides South Africa, which produces more than 40 percent of the region’s corn, the drought was also

likely to hit harvests in southern Angola, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Malawi and Madagascar, the United Nations’ agency said in a report.

The problems in land-locked and impoverished Malawi were compounded by heavy rain and flooding in early January, which destroyed crops and roads, it added.

Last month’s outbreak of anti-foreigner riots in South Africa, in which at least seven people were killed and thousands more forced to flee, might also lead to a drop in remittance flows from Africa’s most advanced economy.

This will add to the problems of nearby countries, the WFP said.

“The rains experienced in late March and early April provided some relief to livestock farmers but arrived too late for both staple food and cash crops,” the WFP’s April assessment said.

“Of great concern is Zimbabwe, which is facing a looming huge food deficit due to imminent widespread crop failure.”

Countries in the region were likely to have to supplement their domestic production with increased imports, pushing up the cost of food, the WFP said.

S30V is one of my favorite stainless steels. It is a quality knife material that takes and keeps a sharp edge throughout considerable use. It is corrosion resistant, which makes it ideal for working in various moisture and weather conditions.

This kind of stainless steel is also strong and tough, which means it can tackle heavy-duty tasks without concern.

Many traditional bush crafting knives are made from carbon steels because of their strength and toughness, but S30V stainless steel can easily compete and has the added benefit of rust resistance.

Traditional bush crafting knives use a single Scandinavian style bevel, but this knife uses a high flat grind with an edge bevel, which allows the tool to cut meat and wood well without favoring one over the other.

The green G10 fibreglass laminate that makes up the handle is a synthetic material that is also tough and weather resistant. The handle surface is lightly textured to be easily graspable, even when wet. The vulcanized rubber spacers reduce felt impact

and vibration when chopping.

The use of titanium tubes is a departure from bush craft handle pin convention, which allows for nontraditional lanyard and tying options.

The location and size of the knife’s palm swell sets it apart from other bush crafting knives. It is much farther forward on the handle and smaller than traditional designs, which allows the user to choke up on the handle and make power cuts more easily.

However, it takes time to get used to this change.

I was impressed by the knife’s design and materials. Sibert’s design and Benchmade’s materials and manufacturing came together into a remarkable bush crafting tool.

Unfortunately, the knife came with a poorly designed leather sheath. Its materials and stitching were inadequate, and the fire steel loop would fit only one size. The sheath also came with a D-ring for carrying, which eliminated the possibility of belt carry and required the owner to use a carabineer or fabricate a dangler set-up Considering the $200 purchase price, one expects a quality sheath.

I am pleased with my own knife after making alterations to its sheath, and I recommend that anyone interested in the Bushcrafter should handle one before making a purchase.

AG NOTES LIVESTOCK RESEARCH MONEY Lakeland College has received another Sweet donation.

Judy Sweet donated $150,000 to help the college modernize and expand the Livestock Research Centre.

The conversion of the former bull test station at the campus in Vermilion, Alta., into a Livestock Research Centre began in 2012 with the addition of GrowSafe technology for monitoring the feed intake of individual animals. New cattle and sheep handling systems and a scale system were added the following year.

Sweet’s donation will expand the centre further and create an area for the public to discuss applied research projects.

“An important part of applied research is showcasing the technology and sharing the results,” Lakeland College president Alice WainwrightSteward said in a news release.

Sweet’s donation was made a year after she made a $100,000 donation from her company, Sportaken Holdings, and a $100,000 donation from the Garth Sweet Simmental Foundation.

Sweet said she continues to make donations because she likes the livestock research that is being done at Lakeland College and its focus on the college’s Student Managed Farm.

EL NINO

Get out sun screen — hot summer expected for Prairies

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Shorts should be a popular choice of attire this summer in Western Canada, according to AccuWeather.

“One thing I will say is about 80 to 90 percent of the computer models we’re looking at here are all in agreement that this summer is going to be warmer compared to normal,” said senior meteorologist Brett Anderson.

Some years it is no better than a coin toss, so he is fairly confident this year is going to be hot.

The forecast is also based on an analysis of years that had similar weather patterns in the previous

Signs point to a “warmer than normal summer across the region” winter and spring.

“I’ll tell you what, probably about 75 to 80 percent of the signals, just looking at that, point towards certainly a warmer than normal sum-

mer across the region,” he said.

Anderson believes the warmest weather will be in the western Prairies, especially southern Alberta, where temperatures are expected to

average 1 to 1.5 C above normal.

Calgary experienced five days above 30 C last summer. He wouldn’t be surprised to see twice that amount this year.

A strengthening El Nino is part of the reason for the forecast, as is warm water off the coast of British Columbia.

“That has a little bit of a modifying effect in terms of air masses coming across from the west,” he said.

Dry soil in southern Alberta and portions of southern Saskatchewan will cause a quicker-than-normal warm-up in temperatures.

It’s why Anderson expects the first few weeks of July to be the hottest time rather than the usual late July-

early August period.

He has less confidence in the summer precipitation forecast because most of the moisture typically comes from thunderstorms, which are notoriously difficult to predict.

Anderson’s best guess is that the eastern Prairies, especially Manitoba, will be drier than normal.

“The prevailing wind flow is going to be a little bit more northwest than southwest, so that’s a little bit more of a drier flow,” he said.

He expects a lot of thunderstorm activity in the western Prairies, so that region should have decent moisture throughout the growing season. sean.pratt@producer.com

SPECIAL CROPS

Former PFRA employee named new ag minister

Legumex Walker posts better results

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

EDMONTON — Alberta’s new agriculture minister is no stranger to agriculture.

Oneil Carlier grew up on the family farm at Val Marie, in southwestern Saskatchewan, where his family continues to farm on a mixed grain and cattle operation.

“It’s a beautiful place to grow up and I still have close ties there,” Carlier said after being sworn in as minister of agriculture and forestry.

“My family still farms, my brother has a mixed grain and cattle, and I go back very often. My parents are still there in Val Marie.”

Carlier was one of 12 cabinet ministers, including premier Rachel Notley, sworn in May 24 on the steps of the Alberta legislature.

Carlier worked for Agriculture Canada for 20 years, starting as a teenager. As a geotechnical technician for the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration, he worked on large irrigation projects, including some in southern Alberta.

BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Legumex Walker’s special crops segment performed better during the first quarter of 2015 than it did in the last quarter of 2014.

The segment posted $5.9 million in adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), which is much higher than the $1.4 million earned in the previous quarter.

“That is four times what we earned from special crops in Q4,” company president Joel Horn told investment analysts during a conference call.

“That puts special crops right back on track.”

He attributed the turnaround to a late 2014 harvest, which pushed special crop sales from the fourth quarter of 2014 to the first quarter of 2015.

Analysts who participated in the previous quarter’s conference call raised concerns about the company’s accounts receivables of $53 million, of which $9 million were more than 90 days past due as of Dec. 31, 2014.

The figure had blossomed to $58 million with $9 million past 90 days

by March 31, 2015.

However, Horn said the company has made significant progress on accounts receivable since March 31.

“We have collected cash receipts of approximately $32 million, of which

$24 million was applied to receivables outstanding as at March 31,” he said.

Adjusted gross profit for all business segments for the quarter was $8.5 million, down from $9 million in the first quarter of 2014.

The lower profit was attributed to higher margins in the special crops segment being offset by poor crush margins in the company’s oilseed division.

Horn said he could not provide an update on work that a special committee is doing to explore strategic alternatives for the company, including the possible sale of part or all of the business.

However, he said the committee is

helping Legumex Walker change its strategy to put more of a focus on developing and marketing high margin food ingredients.

“The market for these types of products seems to be growing at ever increasing rates,” said Horn.

He said moving up the value chain presents a great opportunity for the company’s special crops and specialty oil businesses. The challenge is how to redeploy people and capital to take advantage of that opportunity.

“I hope that we will be able to get back to you soon with more answers to those questions,” said Horn. sean.pratt@producer.com

ONEIL CARLIER ALBERTA AG MINISTER

He eventually moved into the laborator y and became involved in labour relations issues with the Public Service Alliance of Canada. Until May 24, he was a regional representative with the union, which represents federal government workers.

“I do come with a background with agriculture and am really looking forward to serving Albertans as ministry of agriculture and forestry,” said Carlier, who lives outside Darwell, a small community west of Edmonton.

Carlier will look after two portfolios in Notley’s 12-member cabinet, which is the smallest in decades.

“With forestry and agriculture, it is a good fit because there are a lot of issues around marketing and getting their product to the markets and making sure that both forestry and agriculture stay prosperous.”

Carlier’s first job is to meet with the deputy ministers and other department staff to get a handle on the issues facing agriculture and forestry.

Carlier said he plans to build his agricultural base and relationship with farmers.

“It’s one I am looking to build with agriculture around the issues that are particular to Alberta, whether it’s southern Alberta with beef farmers and large irrigation to the larger grain farms in central Alberta to forage farmers in northern Alberta,” he said.

“It’s a large portfolio with many different aspects.”

Carlier said he would also reach out to his federal and provincial counterparts.

“We will reach out. It will be a two way street.” mary.macarthur@producer.com

COMBINES

Farmer sold on combine’s easy maintenance None of the electronics on the Versatile RT490 are essential to operation so if something breaks down, harvest can continue

BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

Kevin Horner was looking for reliable simplicity when he bought two new Versatile RT490 combines for his 3,000 acre farm north of Saskatoon.

Horner describes himself as one of those producers who feel the digital invasion of farm implements has gone too far.

As a result, he was willing to put his money where his mouth was, to the tune of $329,000 a combine.

“You sit in some new combines and you feel you need a degree in electronics to run the thing,” Horner said.

His background is actually in electronics, which perhaps makes him suspicious of putting computers in any large, rumbling, dusty machine.

“When I went down to Winnipeg three years ago to look at them, I was impressed by the simplicity and ease of maintenance,” he said of the Versatile combines.

“You open two side panels and you can get at everything.”

He was impressed that the headers are Mac Don, the drive is Claas, the engine is Cummins, and the hoses and hydraulics are from Italy.

“But they were still in the testing stage and they weren’t for sale yet,” he said. “The one I saw was their show demo, so I told them I wanted to buy the first two RT490s they had for sale. That’s how I have three harvests on them.”

Horner said he always buys two combines because it’s good to have a spare on hand in the event of a breakdown and all the dealership mechanics are busy working for the farmers who buy 10 combines at a time.

He and his wife run the farm with no outside help, so two combines help them get the crop in quicker and harvest a better grade.

Horner said he’s had no mechanical problems after nearly 5,000 acres on each combine, which means there’s been little reason to open the side panels other than for greasing and checking things.

The electronics are simple and are

Kevin Horner wanted a large, Class 9 combine that is simple in design and maintenance. He says the Versatile RT490 was the only such combine on the market so he bought two of the unique, rotating concave machines. | VERSATILE PHOTO used to monitor basic functions such as cylinder speed, concave settings, hours and gallons of fuel per hour.

Except for the Cummins engine control unit, none of the electronics are essential to the operation of the combine, he added.

“If something happens to your electronics, you continue combining,” he said.

“It doesn’t bring you to a halt. The combines don’t monitor moisture, but that’s just another whistle and bell item. A good operator knows when it’s dry and when it’s tough.”

He said the combines have grain loss monitors, but farmers still have to check behind the combine.

“And they don’t monitor yield, which I think is kind of a useless thing

anyway. All that matters is what you get into the bin, right? And there’s GPS autosteer,” he said.

He said the Versatile RT490 has an aggressive threshing system but doesn’t damage the seed.

“We hardly ever get splits in canola,” he said.

“And when we combine wheat, white caps are almost non-existent.

Our dockage is .6 percent.”

Horner thinks he gets so few white caps because the 360 degree counter rotating concave consists of three sections, which creates three pinch points instead of the single pinch point normally found in a rotary combine.

Three pinch points divides the work more uniformly so the load

moves through smoothly, he added.

Horner also attributes the overall performance to the fact that the typical feeder chain is replaced by a system of four beater drums feeding directly up into the rotor.

The first steel drum receives the swath right off the header, and the other three then spin progressively faster as the swath rushes up into the rotor.

“With a chain, when you get a lump, it stays because the chain grabs the whole thing and pulls it up and throws it into the rotor,” he said.

“But these beaters keep the swath very even and flat so you don’t get those lumps.”

Horner’s area is notorious for rainy wet harvest conditions that push

threshing systems and drive lines to the limits. RT490s are available with an optional rear drive, but his land is flat so he decided to stay with the standard drive.

“Damp conditions is where these things really shine,” he said.

“There’s no doubt this is a Class 9 plus combine. When we get those tough crops, that’s when they seem to run smoother and cleaner. The counter rotating concave rolls out the straw and just keeps the material flowing. I end up running .2 or .3 m.p.h. faster at night than I do during the daytime.”

COMBINES

Few computers, easy to operate Combine owners say Versatile runs well under damp conditions

BY RON LYSENG WINNIPEG BUREAU

Saskatchewan farmer Kevin Horner said simplicity was a big factor in his decision to buy two Russian-built combines.

And he’s not alone.

Thirty other farmers have also plunked down their money for the big red machines in the past three years.

Simplicity and low technology ranked high on the list for all RT490 buyers, said Guennadi Ostrikov of Versatile.

“Kevin Horner is absolutely right.

I’ve known him for many years and I know he likes simplicity and reliability,” said Ostrikov.

The RT490 has fewer computers than any other combine in the market, and as a result, new owners and novice operators find it easy to operate.

“My understanding is the more computers, the more complicated the combine,” he said.

“If one computer goes down, your combine is down and you need the expert to come to fix it and re-program it. If it’s down for one or two days, that’s lost harvest time.”

Ostrikov said the Versatile has one computer to look after engine oil, temperature and other engine functions. If it sees a problem, it shuts the Cummins down. He said it’s the only computer that can halt the combine.

Ostrikov said performance in tough conditions is the other reason producers have signed up for the RT490 because the combine is virtually impossible to plug.

“Plugging? No, we don’t plug the rotor. We have so much power and so much threshing capacity that you can’t plug it. Some guys can question me on this, but in the field, the fact is lots of farmers will never plug it as long as they live, and that’s a big order,” he said.

“I just got back from Montana and they had a really good crop last year.

A heavy, heavy crop. I never heard of anybody plug their combine in Montana. Of all the customers, I think we have just one or two guys who maybe can plug the rotor, that’s all.”

He said the combine is good in damp conditions because the concave cage turns at a constant seven r.p.m. opposite to the rotor.

“We thresh 360 degrees around.

Other combines thresh just what’s on the bottom of the concave, let’s say 180 degrees, maybe a little more, but not all the way around. That’s the big difference.”

He said the rotor has two gears that can be shifted from the cab. The first one runs the rotor from 250 to 500 r.p.m., while the second one runs it from 500 to 1,000 r.p.m. All speeds within each gear are infinitely variable and controlled from within the cab. As an example, he said operators run at about 350 r.p.m. for peas and 800 for wheat.

Operators have to adjust the rotor and concave gap, which takes one wrench and about 10 minutes.

“We don’t yet have automatic adjustment from the cab,” he said.

“I tell people you don’t have to stop many times to adjust this because most times you make the same gap for wheat, barley and oats. That’s 12 millimetres. Instead of stopping to

change the gap, you can adjust rotor speed in the cab. Most times that’s enough to make a good sample.”

For canola a bigger concave clearance is needed and adjustment can be made by hand.

The four-stage feeder system uses retractable fingers on the small diameter front beater.

Ostrikov said the drum grabs the material to ensure it goes to the next two larger drums, which turn the material into a smooth uniform layer and accelerate the mass. The velocity of the material increases until the small diameter fourth

drum shoots it into the threshing chamber.

“In this system, we have three pinch On the Versatile’s RT490 the typical feeder chain is replaced by a system of four points,” he said. beater drums.

SEEDING EQUIPMENT

Salford goes big in small grains More capacity with 50 foot cart on AC4000

BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

SALFORD, Ont. — One of the world’s largest air seeder carts is mixing the liquid with the dry.

In its all-dry configuration, Salford’s new AC4000 is a five tank, 945 bushel air seeder unit, including a 65 bushel small seed or product bin.

It joins large, single cart systems, including Seed Hawk’s 800 bushel unit and its 1,300 bu. prototype, the Bourgault 7950 at 950 bu., New Holland’s Flexi-Coil P4950 at 950 bu. and SeedMaster’s 780 bu. Nova.

The world’s largest production unit is the Horsch Anderson Seed Wagon at 1,000 bu.

When Salford started producing air seeding equipment about eight years

Salford’s entry into the very large air seeder equipment market is a 950 bushel or 550 bu. and 4,000 gallon unit. The AC4000 will be available for the 2016 seeding season. | MICHAEL RAINE PHOTO ago, the company wanted to take advantage of its poly tanks, which were marketed in both liquid and dry fertilizer configurations.

“Not every farmer wants to use dry products (such as urea) exclusively with their air seeder. Most importantly, for larger operators who choose liquid products, we felt they shouldn’t have to haul a second cart to do it,” said Brad Baker of Salford during the unveiling of its new extra

large air seeder cart.

As a result, the AC4000 has a three compartment dry product component of 550 bushels and a 4,000 gallon liquid tank.

The company unveiled the configuration May 21 at its Salford, Ont., factory two hours west of Toronto.

The cart uses the same stainless steel dry metering components used on its smaller models. It retains the Swift Current, Sask., built REM fans

and a Pentair Hypro 9303 pump. The air runs are split 10 ways.

A Winkler Man., built Convey-All 10-inch conveyor, running a 16-inch belt, lifts the dry products to the tanks at 67 bu. per minute. The loader is mounted to a remote-controlled hydraulic arm. A 10-inch auger is available as an option in place of the conveyor.

Pegged poly, stainless or fluted, metering rollers are available depending on the seed or product being used. Metering is hydraulically driven with variable rate and is compatible with ISO displays.

The big liquid tank is available with an optional ground drive metering system.

“We wanted to be as flexible as possible for farmers,” said Anson Boak of Salford.

Salford’s Mark VanVeen said not every farmer is using dry or liquid products as their first choice.

“It is often a logistics issue. Their local dealers might not have liquid or the farmer might not have storage or their cart might not handle it. And

lots don’t want to pull that long a train of equipment over their fields or down the road, so a big liquid cart isn’t in the cards,” said VanVeen.

At 50 feet, Baker said the AC4000 isn’t the longest on the market.

“Loaded, about 110,000 pounds needs a lot of tire to prevent soil compaction. So we put it on (six) 900/50 R46s. That distributes the load,” he said.

The machine is expected to fill a growing market of large acreage operators in Western Canada, the American Great Plains states, Australia, Eastern Europe, Russia and western Asia.

Salford will build the units in Ontario with regional assembly in Russia.

The company operates plants in Iowa, Russia and Canada.

The company says pricing is aimed “below the comparably sized Bourgault” unit, meaning likely north of $350,000, but producers will have to contact the company for details.

WEED OF THE WEEK: REDROOT PIGWEED

BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Redroot pigweed is an early season competitor to crops, vying for expensive nutrients and water.

It has also developed a taste for some Group 2 chemistries in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, meaning that it limits the effectiveness of popular products like Refine, Deploy and Nimble (thifensulfuron and Tribenuron) as well as others.

It has also adapted to Group 5 triazines in Ontario’s corn country. For western Canadian farmers, that group includes Sencor, but resistance in Western Canada hasn’t been a problem and metribuzin isn’t generally used in short rotation in the region.

Also known as amaranthus retroflexus, it is a dicot weed in the amaranthaceae family.

Redroot pigweed likes warm soils to germinate, but it can show up early in the season where limited stubble and trash allows the temperature to rapidly rise.

Pigweed’s tendency is to start after the crop is up, sometimes after an incrop application of herbicide has been applied. That can allow the weed to seek out space that isn’t wellcanopied by crop.

Very large populations of the weed can show up seemingly overnight when given the opportunity. In part, this is due to the plant’s ability to gen-

erate more than 100,000 seeds, if allowed to reach maturity.

To make matters worse, the seeds are viable for up to six years, so the sins of a flooded season or frosted out crop can be felt for years afterward if the land isn’t chem-fallowed well or tilled.

Pulse crops and flax are poor competitors to the pest, due in part to thinner canopies and more limited herbicide choices.

Pigweed is not a great competitor, so with well-timed broadleaf control, using more than one mode of action, if Group 2 tools are employed, the weed can be thwarted.

Bromoxynil and MCPA can be effectively used. Herbicide tolerant crops are generally well positioned to avoid problems with this pest.

Pigweed leaves are oval and have a notched tip when the plants are young and later develop a diamond shape.

The weed’s large, reddish taproot can scavenge moisture from deep in the soil’s profile. Lower stalks are thick and smooth, while upper areas and branches are rough and hairy.

Flower spikes carry densely packed green blossoms in July and August.

The tiny seeds are round, black and shiny.

Livestock can suffer toxicity issues with pigweed, even though the weed is considered an edible plant by humans when it is in its early stages of growth.

Redroot pigweed has developed resistance to Group 2 herbicides in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. | The crop is cultivated in parts of China and the seed is ground into flour.

Herbicides with residual action will also help reduce infestations in appropriate crops.

Delaying post emergent applica-

tions of broadleaf products until soil temperatures are higher than 20 C allow for pigweed seed germination and control, but this creates issues with other weed staging.

Light applications of steel, shallow tillage with vertical tillage or seed bed

RANCHERS IN LIMBO

Aboriginal land claims threaten grazing leases B.C. cattle producers worry the pending settlements could decrease their land value

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

MERRITT, B.C. — Some British Columbia ranchers are learning that their grazing agreements could change as more aboriginal land claim settlements are completed.

Roger Patenaude, a rancher from 150 Mile House, has learned that one-third of his grazing tenure is under claim, although the final agreement could take years to settle.

In the meantime, he does not know if he will have rangeland in the future or how it may affect his livelihood.

Ranchers who rely on crown grazing land have faced this issue since 1993, when First Nations land claim negotiations began. Uncertainty now clouds their future as some treaties near completion.

Patenaude wants to know what sort of compensation he might be offered and argues that the province should be held responsible.

“This is a thing all of B.C. has to share, not just the tenure holders,” he said at the B.C. Cattlemen’s Association annual meeting, which was held in Merritt May 21-23.

“We have to get together as a group and we have to go to the government with mitigation and compensation.

We can’t let government come to us with a mitigation,” he said.

Don Moses, a First Nations rancher and a member of the Nicola Stock Breeders Association, said these land claim disputes go back more than a century and need to be resolved.

“Many of the early ranchers took advantage of First Nations people.

We weren’t allowed to vote and we weren’t allowed to preempt land,” he said at the meeting.

Land settlements give First Nations the right to exclusive use and jurisdiction to manage the land and resources.

Moses urged individual ranchers to meet with First Nations groups if licences are affected and ask if they plan to continue offering grazing permits.

“They are people just like you. Sit down with them and ask them if they will continue the licence,” he said.

“Don’t be so proud that you can’t sit down with your neighbour. You are just making it difficult for yourself and your family and your neighbourhood.…

Communication will solve a lot of

problems if you are willing to do it.”

Grant Huffman, who chairs the BCCA’s aboriginal affairs committee, said there is considerable uncertainty within the ranching community, which relies heavily on thousands of acres of provincial land for grazing. Negotiations between government and each band take many years and are complex.

Groups such as cattle producers have observed on the sidelines since the process started, even though the outcome affects their future. That may have to change.

“We need to enter these negotiations with a relatively positive attitude and recognize that we will have to be involved,” he said.

“We realistically need to recognize the fact that these are going to go ahead, and what we need to do is be prepared and be respectful and reasonable. Hopefully all sides in this will be that way.”

The BCC A cannot be directly involved, but he said it could offer affected individuals information and options. A small number of tenure holders are significantly affected, and they have not heard any solutions.

“Their tenure is at risk with no indication about mitigation,” said Mary MacGregor, a Kamloops lawyer who works with the agricultural community.

“The expense must come from the entire society and not at the expense of the neighbours,” she said.

A particular concern is how pending settlements may affect the market value of land. The uncertainty could drive down prices.

MacGregor said the government needs to consider interim measures.

“I do have a concern the very small family farms will not have the resources or know where to turn to get help or advice,” she said. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

FARM POLICY

Livestock losses to wolves rising in B.C.

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

MERRITT, B.C. — Wolves are taking a bite out of British Columbia livestock.

The B.C. Cattlemen’s Association’s 2014 cattle loss survey reported 553 confirmed kills by wolves and another 249 losses by other predators.

“B.C. is home to a great abundance and diversity of wildlife. Too much of a good thing can be a problem sometimes,” said Tom Eithier, the province’s assistant deputy minister for forest, lands and natural resources operations.

The problem is spreading across the province as wolves, bears and cougars attack domestic animals and elk and deer raid haystacks and crops.

Livestock groups such as the B.C. Cattlemen’s Association want action

now, and the government is looking for more proactive approaches to wildlife control, said Eithier.

Past government policy called for a light regulatory touch because the public wanted wolves protected and livestock owners wanted them gone.

B.C. agriculture minister Norm Letnick has announced the continuation of an agriculture-wildlife management committee to advise and make recommendations on wildlife management issues because the government has finally agreed something needs to be done.

As well, he told the BCCA’s annual meeting in Merritt that representatives from agriculture and the ministries of environment, forestry and agriculture will meet regularly to discuss wildlife problems and consider controls.

The province paid out $114,000 in compensation for verified losses in

2014-15, but ranchers and officials know many incidents are not reported. About 600 ranchers have taken courses on how to verify kills.

Compensation is only a partial solution, said Eithier.

“The crown certainly has responsibility, resource users and resources owners also have responsibility,” he said. “The question comes down to who pays. There are different schemes all the time that are brought forward.”

Rancher David Haywood-Farmer of Savona thinks wildlife is moving out of areas hard hit by the mountain pine beetle. The wood was removed and the habitat changed. Roads opened and the wolves travelled down them to enter new regions.

“It seems like the whole trend is from the mountain pine beetle epidemic.” barbara.duckworth.producer.com

FOOD SAFETY

Meat council calls for unified inspection, safety rules

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

OTTAWA — The Canadian Meat Council wants an end to the two tiered meat inspection system.

“We believe that the best option for reducing interprovincial barriers and promoting trade of meat products in both Canada and export markets would be to terminate the existence of a two tiered system of food safety regulations and inspection in this country and move to one level of food safety inspection, which is federal,” said Henry Mizrahi, president of Lester’s Foods in Laval, Que., and past-president of the meat council, which represents federally inspected meat plants.

Some small provincially inspected meat companies might be forced to close if they cannot achieve the higher level of food safety required, so government would have to help them make the transition, Mizrahi told the council’s annual meeting in Ottawa May 7-8.

“We want to ensure that these companies can continue to survive but under a unified system that provides the same food safety protections that we do,” he said.

Ninety-five percent of animals slaughtered in Canada are processed in federally registered establishments. Products produced in provincially registered facilities can be

traded only within the province.

These plants need to be upgraded to ensure all are producing a safe product, said Ray Price, president of Sunterra Meats in Alberta.

“I think some of the provincial systems are relatively close to the federal system from an inspection perspective, but some are not. Some do not even have inspections,” he said.

Price said it is possible to move to the federal system because his family-owned company did so successfully.

“We are probably the smallest plant in the federal system, but at the same time we know we are way better than we used to be under the federal system,” he said.

His greatest fear would be for someone to get sick because they ate food produced by his company.

“We spend more money on food safety as an industry than anything else,” he said.

Food safety specialist Rick Holley of the University of Manitoba said this is a long-standing issue. Similar systems exist in other countries where regions regulate meat processing.

“There doesn’t seem to be an easy resolution because on the one hand, it is not good to have two sets of standards. On the other hand, if you enforce the federal standards at the provincial levels, you are not going to have anybody at the provincial level to sell meat to people in the small towns,” he

said in an interview. “When that happens, you are going to have an underground trade that won’t have any standards or control at all.”

He said compromises are needed, and it is possible to move forward with systems that are safe at the provincial level. Canada is large and diverse, and

some regions can get fresh meat only from regional processors. barbara.duckworth@producer.com

SHEEP RESEARCH

Parasite resistance studied

BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Western Canadian sheep producers are being asked to volunteer their flocks for the next phase of a research project involving sheep parasites and parasite resistance to common treatments.

Alberta Lamb Producers issued a recent call to members asking those with more than 60 ewes to participate.

Last summer, researchers Michel Levy and John Gilleard of the University of Calgary surveyed 20 farms to identify the type and number of parasites present, the organization said.

“The results of this work … suggested that many Alberta sheep flocks have high parasite burdens and that ivermectin and fenbendazole/ albendazole resistant parasites may be more common than previously thought in the province.”

The researchers now plan a more comprehensive three-year study of the problem using funding from the Alberta Livestock and Meat Agency.

They plan to approach Alberta producers who participated last year, as well as other sheep producers in British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

“This year the project will continue to look at parasite burden and at the efficacy of treatment at the flock level,” said a news release from Alberta Lamb Producers.

Levy, Gilleard and veterinary medicine student Lana Swain prepared a report on last year’s research, which said the 2014 pilot study suggested parasite burdens in Alberta sheep are higher than expected and that resis-

tance to common treatments is an issue.

They said sheep producers in Western Canada are seeing higher incidence of anemia, lethargy and mortality in lambs because of roundworm infection.

“This is now a major threat to both sheep welfare and production and has the potential to limit attempts to expand and/or intensify sheep production in the region,” said the report.

No specific study of sheep parasites has been conducted for more than 20 years, and information is lacking on the prevalence of different parasite species, their distribution and their resistance to major drug treatments, known as anthelmintics.

In background information provided to the lamb group, the researchers said roundworms “are the most important disease problem of sheep throughout the world.”

The parasites cause two main syndromes in sheep: parasitic gastroenteritis and haemonchosis.

The former illness reduces weight gain and sometimes causes diarrhea.

The latter causes acute anemia, swelling under the jaw and lethargy.

Both are most commonly seen at the end of the grazing season.

Haemonchosis is caused by haemonchus contortus, also known as barber’s pole worm, and is particularly able to develop resistance to common drugs used to treat sheep parasites, the researchers said.

BISON RESEARCH

Bison weighed on the way to watering hole or feeder Putting animals through a chute can cause stress, leading to weight loss

BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

PENHOLD, Alta. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A new lowstress bison weigh scale trial has already proven successful, says one of the project organizers.

The scale allows bison to be weighed simply by walking to water or eating at a mineral feeder. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re quite encouraged by the bison walking over the weigh scale in a non-stressful way,â&#x20AC;? said Jayson Galbraith, an elk and bison specialist with Alberta Agriculture.

The research project, which is con-

ducted by the University of Alberta and Bison Producers of Alberta, aims to help producers receive an accurate weight of their animals without the stress of running them through a chute.

A bison can go off its feed for one to two weeks each time it goes through a chute or squeeze to be weighed or handled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to do that on a pen that is gaining well,â&#x20AC;? said Galbraith.

Accurate weights are necessary when selecting good growing animals or animals that are close to slaughter weight.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not being able to weigh is a problem for producers,â&#x20AC;? U of A student Elyse Semchuck said during a presentation to bison producers.

Students placed two panel readers on the sides of a portable alleyway to read the bisonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s radio frequency identification tags as they crossed the weigh scale to get to water.

The bison step on the scale and are weighed as they walk through the portable alley. An RFID tag reader then records the animalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s identification and its weight.

They have since disconnected one of the panel readers because the ear tag can be read while the bison cross the platform scale on the way to or returning from water.

The reduction of one platform reader instantly cuts about $3,000 off the $10,000 system.

Ivan Smith of Big Bend Ranches, where the scales are set up, said he already has good information about daily rates of gain and weights for individual bison in his pen.

A good cattle buyer can eyeball a cow and get a fairly accurate weight, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot tougher to guess the weight of a long-haired bison simply by looking, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been awesome for us,â&#x20AC;? said Smith, who has already found a 150 pound difference among the bison in the pen.

The automatic weigh scales at Big Bend Bison allow producers to keep track of daily weight gain. | MARY MACARTHUR PHOTO â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know how much they gain every day.â&#x20AC;?

The bison have been less inclined to walk onto the scale to eat minerals.

Smith believes thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because they already have enough mineral in their ration and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to seek out additional supplements.

The mineral feeder will be rigged up to a solar panel this summer and taken to the field, where the bison can be weighed while on grass.

Cattle producers who are fattening their cattle on grass and want more information about which animals

are gaining the most may also adapt the technology if the solar panel technology successfully operates the weigh scale in the field.

Galbraith said the technology exists to hook the scale to an automatic gate sorter so the bison that have reached market weight can be funneled into a different pen. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another way to sort bison without creating stress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy how itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going. I think this is a very useful tool,â&#x20AC;? said Galbraith. mary.macarthur@producer.com

IS THERE A BETTER WAY?

Self auditing your farm’s procedures ANIMAL HEALTH

ROY LEWIS, DVM

A

n experienced objective outsider can identify changes to improve cattle management procedures.

The changes might be prompted by new advancements, or perhaps old habits have become antiquated.

For whatever reason, an experienced producer, nutritionist, pharmaceutical representative or herd veterinarian may identify deficiencies by observing cattle at key processing times.

The deficiencies may then be easy to correct.

The improvements may be small but over several years will save money and produce healthier cattle.

We must all be willing to change to improve the quality, welfare needs and growth and reproductive performance of our cattle.

It doesn’t hurt to conduct formal or informal audits of our processing methods when we can.

An example would be checking for lame cattle, allergic reactions and injuries after processing.

Producers should check out the

chute or processing system if injuries have occurred to the feet and legs. As well, swellings the next day may indicate needling technique problems or slight allergic reactions caused by placing vaccines too close together.

A large number of the steel thick walled needles are still being used instead of the sharp disposable needles that cause much less trauma and still be reused.

As well, using a disinfectant wipe to clean the implant needle between calves and even at branding can improve implantation.

Spend time training new staff about needle sizes, gauges and length and how to properly give a subcutaneous injection.

Also review current antibiotics and the conditions under which they should be used. I commonly see producers using one antibiotic for everything and administering products that might not be necessary.

Lameness at pasture may be foot rot or it could be a crack, sprain strain, corn, septic arthritis or a fracture.

The other conditions require a different approach than just antibiotics.

Vets may be the best people to objectively conduct an audit because they are most current in new treatments and how and what to administer for pain medication if necessary.

This is particularly easy to do when performing other procedures such as pregnancy checks, castration and semen evaluations.

In programs such as verified beef

production, audits are conducted with a checklist of stops and measures. Some branded programs also require verification of certain things.

Just because something has been done a certain way for 10 years doesn’t mean there isn’t a better way or a better product.

Discussions could revolve around ways that procedures and vaccinations are done differently between farms and if there is a better way.

We want to critique everything from the way we look after vaccines from the point of purchase to how we administer them to our calves.

For example, has the chain of refrigeration been maintained at the right temperature of 3 to 6 C from the clinic to the farm and from the farm into the cattle?

Vaccines protect most calves for the diseases for which they are indicated, but nothing is 100 percent so it is important to keep a close eye on them after they are processed.

The beef industry’s new code of practice requires non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs when castrating larger bulls. However, the benefits of using these products apply to almost all of the clinical cases we treat in veterinary medicine, including castrating young calves. Your herd veterinarian can best advise where to use these products.

Western College of Veterinary Medicine 50 Years of WCVM | 1965-2015 Celebrating 50 years of veterinary education, research and clinical expertise at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (WCVM).

Dr. Chris Luby is conducting a wet lab on milking system evaluation at the 2015 June Conference. Photo: Christina Weese.

While the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (WCVM) is widely recognized for its role in educating veterinary students, the college has also played a part in ensuring that Western Canada’s practicing veterinarians continue to enhance their veterinary training throughout their careers.

That responsibility became apparent very early in the college’s 50year history. Soon after the college was created in 1965, requests for continuing education as well as animal health information for the public began to pour in. At first the college’s small faculty tried to keep up with the demand, but it soon became evident that WCVM needed someone to manage continuing education and public extension initiatives.

In 1968, Manitoba veterinarian Dr. Ray Butler accepted a joint appointment with the University of Saskatchewan’s Department of Extension and the WCVM while completing his master’s degree in continuing education (CE). In short order, Butler set up a thriving CE program and worked closely with the provincial and national veterinary medical associations to address the educational needs of western Canadians involved in animal health.

One of Butler’s projects was the development of six-week summer courses that tackled topics such as advanced swine medicine, exotic diseases and systemic pathology. After five years of successive courses, practitioners and government personnel could eventually earn a diploma in veterinary medicine through the program.

The WCVM also began to offer short extension courses for livestock producers, industry employees and the public. These included the annual Stock Person’s School, assisted reproduction workshops and seminars focusing on equine and cattle health.

As the college’s list of alumni grew, WCVM organized its first June Conference in 1979. Based on its success, the continuing education conference became a tradition that took place in Saskatoon every second spring for nearly 25 years. From 2004 to 2011, the WCVM joined forces with the Saskatchewan Veterinary Medical Association to deliver joint conferences. But when the two organizations decided to strike out on their own in 2012, the WCVM June Conference returned to Canada’s continuing veterinary education scene once more.

To mark the WCVM’s 50-year anniversary, some of the college’s best and brightest veterinary graduates are coming to Saskatoon this spring and sharing their expertise during the 2015 June Conference (June 11-13). For more details, visit www.usask.ca/wcvm/fifty-years.

GRAIN TRADERS NAME

BY SEAN PRATT

A Chinese state-owned enterprise and a Regina businessperson who were going to build a sizable canola crushing facility in Regina are suing one another.

Chongqing Red Dragonfly Oil Co. filed a statement of claim with the Court of Queen’s Bench for Saskatchewan that accuses Michael Shenher and the companies he is affiliated with, along with a numbered Manitoba company of fraud.

“This includes, but is not limited to, forged documents purporting to be prepared by a lawyer, unlawfully and without authority removing directors, officers and shareholders from the corporate registry and making substantial misrepresentations in order to compel the plaintiff to enter into agreements and make significant payments,” Chongqing said in its claim.

Shenher has filed a countersuit, claiming Chongqing has breached its obligations to the joint venture.

Shenher’s lawyer said his client was not willing to comment on the lawsuits at this time.

Chongqing Red Dragonfly Oil Co. is a subsidiary of Chongqing Grain Group, one of China’s largest stateowned grain corporations. Chongqing’s lawyer did not respond to an interview request.

According to court documents, the Chinese firm entered into a joint venture agreement with Clean Power Concepts on April 29, 2011, to create Pan Pacific Green Food Inc. Clean Power was incorporated in Nevada and is run by Shenher.

Pan Pacific was created to lease or acquire one or more 200,000 to 300,000 tonne canola crush facilities and build a new 850,000 tonne plant.

Chongqing claims it was vulnerable because of the language barrier and its unfamiliarity with the Canadian business climate.

The firm did not hire a lawyer.

Instead, it relied on Shenher to advise and assist it with the negotiations and execution of all agreements between the two parties.

On Aug. 30, 2011, Chongqing bought two Regina properties for $2.8 million each from two numbered companies.

Shenher signed off on behalf of both numbered companies. Chongqing paid 95 percent of the purchase price and the seller paid five percent.

On Oct. 28, Pan Pacific Green Food was incorporated with Chongqing holding 95 of the 100 class A shares and Clean Power Concepts holding the remaining five.

Chongqing claims it received a document dated Nov. 11 purporting to be a final draft of due diligence.

“Subsequent investigation revealed that this document is a forgery,” said

Chongqing in its statement of claim.

On Feb. 17, 2012, Chongqing paid $3.7 million to Pan Pacific, which then transferred the money to one of the numbered companies. Shenher signed on behalf of the numbered company.

“Red Dragonfly made a significant investment totalling almost $4 million Canadian, and since that time has received nothing of value,” said Chongqing.

On March 24, 2014, Shenher removed all corporate directors, officers and shareholders from Pan Pacific’s corporate profile other than himself and Clean Power Concepts. “(He) took de facto control of Pan Pacific without lawful authority and/ or without advising Red Dragonfly,” Chongqing said in the documents.

A few months later, Shenher sold the plant to 2925924 Manitoba Ltd. Chongqing wants Information Services Corp., the company that handles things such as land titles registry and corporate registry in Saskatchewan, to list it as holding 95 class A shares in Pan Pacific Green Food and to name two individuals to the board

of directors and two others as officers of the company.

It wants a court order reversing the sale of the plant to the Manitoba company and it wants the defendants to pay Chongqing no less than $3.7 million.

The only statement of defence was filed by 2925924 Manitoba, a company owned by Morris and Ursula Baziuk, who own and operate a hydroexcavation company in Manitoba.

The company denies it was part of any kind of fraud. The Baziuks say they purchased the Regina property from Pan Pacific for $1.05 million.

“Neither Morris Baziuk nor Ursula Baziuk had ever met or spoken with Mr. Michael Shenher or any other representative of Pan Pacific prior to negotiating the purchase of the Industrial Drive property,” the Baziuks said in their statement of defence.

On the other hand Clean Power Concepts is countersuing Chongqing, claiming the Chinese firm breached its obligations to

the joint venture.

Clean Power says Chongqing agreed to contribute 95 percent of the capital to finance the Pan Pacific venture and Clean Power the remaining five percent. Each company would own 50 percent of the joint venture.

The five percent contribution was made by transferring goods and services, including crushing equipment, land and buildings to Pan Pacific.

Clean Power claims Chongqing did not contribute its 95 percent capital commitment.

It also claims Chongqing failed to develop canola and soybean projects to generate revenue for the joint venture.

In a Jan. 30 news release, Clean Power said that Chongqing’s negligence caused irreparable and substantial financial harm to the company and its shareholders in costs, lost revenue and lost technology licensing fees.

“The lost market capitalization, share value and opportunity costs are almost incalculable, but we expect to prove damages in the US$70 to $100 million range in court,” said Shenher

“When Chinese state-owned enterprises come to do business in North America and contract with U.S. public companies like Clean Power with over 1,500 shareholders, they must be held accountable according to North American rule of law.”

Shenher said the Chinese government should help resolve the dispute or companies worldwide will think twice before doing business with Chinese state owned enterprises.

AGFINANCE WHEN TO BUY?

GRANT DIAMOND

It may be worthwhile to push up a major investment

A

n expense is deductible when calculating income from a business for tax purposes if it is made to earn business income in a particular tax year.

However, capital expenses are treated a little differently because they usually provide an ongoing benefit and contribute to income generation in future years as well.

As a result, most business assets, for accounting purposes, are capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of those assets.

The Canada Revenue Agency introduced the capital cost allowance (CCA) system as an attempt to mirror what the accountants are doing on financial statements.

It was designed to limit amortizing choices, but government also frequently uses it as a tool of fiscal policy or to stimulate manufacturing industries or equipment sales by allowing faster depreciation than the norm.

For example, in 2009 the federal government accelerated the CCA on computer purchases to one year. The government chose an arbitrary time period of Jan. 27, 2009, to Feb. 28, 2011. This may have had something to do with the downturn in the economy and giving taxpayers an incentive to buy electronics.

The CCA rate for these assets is normally 55 percent on a declining balance. Modified capital cost rules for computer equipment and certain other equipment provides an amortization rate that more accurately reflects the projected lifespan of the equipment.

It is usually considered unwise to make capital purchases based solely on the tax implications, but if you were going to make the purchase next year anyway, it might be worthwhile to move it up before the end of this year. That does not mean capital cost investments should ignore the impact of the capital cost allowance.

The potential tax implications should also be considered against additional costs of moving up the capital investment.

The Income Tax Act allows you to claim up to 10 percent of farm equipment purchases in the first year with no dollar limit.

Part of the appeal of claiming the CCA early is that you don’t necessarily have to make the full investment all at once.

Under the Income Tax Act, you must possess actual ownership of the equipment, but you can arrange to finance it separately over a number of years. The interest rate on the loan is also deductible.

However, the advantage of a latein-the-year equipment purchase is reduced by the half-year rule, which arbitrarily adjusts for the amount of

time the equipment is owned.

An important requirement for moving up the capital purchase and claiming the capital cost allowance is that delivery of the machinery has to be completed and placed into operation before the end of the year.

However, producers who anticipate the tax rate will jump next year might be advised to postpone the capital purchase until then to get a break from the higher tax rate.

AGI finalizes purchase of Westeel

BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Westeel, a famous name on the Prairies, is now part of Ag Growth International, a global manufacturer of grain handling equipment.

Winnipeg-based AGI completed its purchase of Westeel for $221.5 million last week.

“The strategic acquisition of Canada’s leading brand in grain storage further establishes AGI as a global leader in grain handling and storage solutions,” said Gary Anderson, AGI’s chief executive officer.

AGI builds storage bins, grain augers, belt conveyors, aeration equipment and grain drying systems

at manufacturing plants in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Finland.

Its brands include Batco Manufacturing conveyors, Hi Roller conveyors, Westfield Industries augers, Tramco bulk handling equipment and Twister grain bins.

AGI announced its plan to buy Westeel in November.

Anderson said AGI was eyeing Westeel for a while because grain storage bins complement AGI’s lineup. It pounced when an opportunity arose last fall.

“The reality is that it (became) available…. It really wasn’t at other times,” said Anderson.

“We had to go our own way for a

while but never quit our desire to dance with the prettiest girl in the room.”

In 2014, the combined revenue of the two companies was more than $600 million.

The name Westeel, or Westeel Rosco, is hard to miss in Western Canada. The brand is painted on thousands of grain storage bins from Steinbach, Man. to Stony Plain, Alta.

The company, founded in 1905 as a ceiling and roofing firm in Winnipeg, began manufacturing steel grain storage bins in the 1920s.
