'Dutch disease': is it real? - The Western Producer

BY BRIAN CROSSSASKATOON NEWSROOM

Farm groups and grain handling companies welcomed a federal gov-ernment decision earlier this week to

introduce legislation forcing nearly 5,000 striking employees at Canadi-an Pacific Railway back to work.

Federal labour minister Lisa Raitt introduced back-to-work legislation in the House of Commons May 28,

five days after conductors, engineers, yard workers and rail traffic control-lers walked of the job, causing trains on all CPR lines in Western Canada to grind to a halt.

Barring any unexpected delays in

passing the legislation, CPR officials said they were expecting grain trains to begin rolling again as early as May 30 or May 31.

Dutch disease is a potential prob-lem for part of Canada, an economist says, but not the part that most peo-ple expect.

According to one of the co-authors of an in-depth study about the pos-sibility of Dutch disease affecting Canada, the booming West faces the greatest impacts from the commod-ity sector boom.

“If there is a Dutch disease phenom-enon for some sectors, it’s strongest closer to where the demand is high-est,” said University of Saskatchewan agricultural economist Richard Gray.

CPR spokesperson Kevin Hrysak said rail movement would resume immediately after the legislation was passed.

“You would hope (to resume) the following day,” said Hrysak.

“If it (back-to-work legislation) passes tomorrow (May 29), then we’re hoping to start obviously ramping up operations Wednesday (May 30) and being fully back on line by Thursday (May 31), but it all depends on how this rolls out.”

Hrysak said it is too early to specu-late on how long it might take CPR to return to full productivity and clean up the backlog of grain sitting in idled rail cars and country elevators.

Agriculture stakeholders wel-comed the news that striking rail workers would likely be returning to work.

Cherilyn Nagel, a Saskatchewan farmer and past-president of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association, said back-to-work legis-lation was a positive development.

However, rail strikes, service dis-ruptions and freight rate increases point to the need for long-term trans-portation solutions, she added.

Western farmers need a system that ensures farm products can be deliv-ered to port in a timely, reliable and cost-efficient manner, she said.

“Its frustrating because … we are just so reliant on the railways to get our products all the way to (port),” Nagel said.

“We’re being held captive by rail-ways because we really don’t have a competitive alternative. Fortunately for us, the strike happened now instead of in September or October.”

Nagel said the strike also disrupted vessel unloading, delayed backhaul opportunities and left some fertilizer retailers unable to supply product to farmers at the most critical time of year.

Peter Xotta, vice-president of plan-ning and operations with Port Metro Vancouver, said port officials were eager to see a resumption of normal rail service.

However, the week-long disruption would continue to affect port opera-tions for days or even weeks to come, he added.

“Under (normal circumstances), we will handle about 3,000, 4,000, even 5,000 rail cars of agricultural products per week … during peak season so if that flow is disrupted for even a few days … you can expect that there will be a bubble in the system that will need to be smoothed out,” Xotta said.

“Bringing the port and its opera-tions back on line as it relates to CP service will take a number of days and perhaps even into weeks to sta-bilize.”

CPR handles about half of the bulk grain and oilseed shipments that are delivered from Western Canada to export terminals on the West Coast and Thunder Bay.

Ward Weisensel, chief operating officer at the CWB, said it’s hard to estimate the potential costs that a prolonged rail strike would have had on the CWB and western Canadian grain farmers.

In addition to demurrage charges stemming from delays in loading ocean vessels, the CWB could also be subject to other monetary penalties for failure to deliver grain on time to international customers.

“For a 40,000 tonne vessel, you’re probably talking somewhere in the neighbourhood of $15,000 US per day for each day for demurrage … so if the strike lasts much longer than a week, you could easily get into $3 to $5 million worth of costs here in terms of those types of demurrage numbers,” he said.

“We’ve been shipping around 1,800 cars (160,000 tonnes) a week with CP Rail … so we have a fair number of loads on wheels with CP and a fair number of open orders that are just not moving.”

Wade Sobkowich, executive direc-tor of the Western Grain Elevators Association, said the exact costs associated with the rail strike may not be known for some time.

The financial impact on grain com-panies will be hard to calculate until the backlog of grain already destined for sale is loaded on ships, contract penalties are calculated and demur-rage costs are accounted for.

“It’s really hard to quantify,” he said.“But as a general statement, when

the grain flow stops, the money stops and penalties kick in and that hurts everyone in the grain industry, including farmers.”

WGEA members, which include Viterra, Richardson International, Cargill, Paterson, Louis Dreyfus Canada and Parrish & Heimbecker, handle 90 percent of Canada’s bulk grain movements and pay more than $1 billion in rail freight each year.

“What happens when the com-modity cycle turns down? Commod-ity prices don’t tend to stay high for a long time,” Gray said.

Dutch disease refers to a phenom-enon noticed in the Netherlands in the 1960s and 1970s. A booming resource sector causes the national currency to surge and renders manu-facturing exports too expensive to sell to foreign markets.

People in commodity-producing regions see strong economic growth, while people in manufacturing regions see stagnation.

Gray said farmers have struggled to adjust to the phenomenon for a decade, but provincial governments have done little to deal with its pos-sible long-term consequences.

The farm economy has now caught up with the oil economy, so farmers are able to keep up with the energy boom and adapt.

The issue of whether Canada is suf-fering from Dutch disease has become a hot political question since federal NDP leader Thomas Mulcair charged that some econom-ic problems in Ontario and Quebec are due to the booming western resource economy.

Gray’s study on that question, writ-ten with two other economists, has just been published in the Institute for Research on Public Policy.

The study, which looked at the 1992 to 2007 period, found that Canada has suffered a “mild” form of Dutch disease. Less than one-third of Can-ada’s manufacturing industries have been noticeably hit by the phenom-enon. Most manufacturers were able to adjust to a higher currency by increasing productivity.

The IRPP study found that the most low-tech and labour-intensive industries, such as textile produc-tion, were hardest hit.

However, it also found that Dutch disease might be a contributory factor, hurting already-declining industries in an era of low-wage global trade.

Dutch disease occurs when boom-ing resource export sales bring more money into an economy, causing resource producers to bid up wages for workers and services. That causes manufacturers to also pay higher wages, but they cannot necessarily raise prices of their goods in the world market.

The problem is exacerbated by the inflow of wealth into the country, which boosts the value of the cur-rency and makes manufactured exports even more expensive for for-eign buyers.

Canada’s currency has surged s i n c e t h e m i d - 2 0 0 0 s b u t h a s remained within a trading range for a number of years. The loonie had pre-viously not been tied to the value of oil or commodities, but the relation-ship has been close since the com-modity boom began.

Gray said labour markets tend to be regional, so the situation will have a big impact on the local labour mar-ket if a region is generally weak or generally booming.

That means the effects of the western boom will be partially muted for a weak region like Ontario and Quebec. How-ever, the western economy will face much higher wage and price pressure as industries compete for workers.

That’s how Gray ended up working on this area.

Mohammed Shakeri, a PhD stu-dent of his at the time, wanted to look at the Dutch disease phenomenon,

while Gray had been studying the impact of the booming oil industry on the farming sector.

Oil prices had already begun surging in the early 2000s, causing wages to rise in Alberta and western Saskatchewan, but crop and livestock prices had not yet risen. This was causing farmers to compete with the oil patch for workers, and generally losing, so they aggres-sively attempted to increase the pro-ductivity of their farms.

“You had high oil prices, but agri-culture hadn’t taken off,” said Gray.

“It was increasingly difficult for farmers to find reliable labour.”

Farmers bought bigger machinery and more land and tried to mecha-nize and automate production. That way a single farm family could pro-duce more with the same amount of inputs, he said.

Gray expects farmers will continue to mechanize now that crop and live-stock prices have risen. Labour is still expensive and the surge of the cur-rency helps improve productivity.

“The high dollar helps you buy for-eign capital equipment,” said Gray.

“If we were at an 80 cent dollar, the $400,000 combine or tractor would be $500,000.”

Gray’s greatest worry about Dutch disease isn’t for Eastern Canada. He is worried about the West, where high commodity prices are creating high wages and big pools of workers, as well as generally higher prices for many goods and services.

Countries with similar resource booms, such as Nor way, have extracted money from booming sales and put it into savings. This helps reduce the amount of money in a booming economy and leaves something for coming periods of low commodity prices.

However, western provinces haven’t done this.

“We’re not running up surpluses and adding to a Heritage Fund,” Gray said, referring to Alberta’s former version of an oil-based piggybank.

“We’ve decided that to keep the boom going, we’re not going to tax very much. We’re going to have fairly low royalties, we’re going to keep our income taxes low and make it attrac-tive for people to move here.”

Gray said this could cause problems when the commodity boom ends.

“Often there’s five years of high prices and 15 years of low prices,” said Gray.

“It’s not often 10 and 10. We’ve already had a pretty good run.”

He said the western provinces need to think about how they will adjust if commodity prices drop, but wages remain high and there are no govern-ment savings to tide over a period of flat or falling revenues.

Fears are subsiding about a repeat of vast tracts of land going unseeded in southeastern Sas-katchewan.

“(Farmers) are far better off today than they were last year,” said Wes Anderson, manager of agronomy for Richardson International.

“By no means do I think it’s a disaster.”

He expects 95 percent of the crop will be seeded in east-central and southeastern Saskatchewan.

Arlynn Kurtz, vice-president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan, said earlier this spring that conditions were every bit as bad as last year and that 40 percent of the crop could once again go unseeded in the southeast.

He is far more optimistic about the outlook today despite contin-ued rain in the area. Kurtz’s farm near Stockholm, Sask., received another 36 millimetres of moisture May 27, bringing his spring total to 280 to 300 millimetres.

“That’s a year’s worth of rain already,” he said.

He has still been able to seed 60 percent of his 2012 crop, partly with the help of a new tractor that runs on tracks instead of wheels.

“I’m a little bit amazed by where we have seeded last week,” said Kurtz.

He believes it is possible 95 per-cent of the crop will be planted in the southeast, although it will be seeded later than normal.

“We need to do a sun dance,” said Kurtz.

“We need some co-operation from Mother Nature. If that hap-pens, I think a fair bit of this ground can get covered, but it’s going to be a challenge.”

He said there will still be pockets in the region where 25 to 40 percent of the crop won’t be planted.

Anderson agreed that up to one million acres could go unseeded. The area between Lipton and Mel-ville is particularly wet and farmers in the Weyburn and Estevan areas won’t be able to seed from corner to corner like they usually do.

However, the spring rain also has its advantages.

“The increase in subsoil moisture in higher spots in the field will by far make up for the losses in some of those lower spots,” he said.

Growers planted a lot of winter wheat in that area of the province, which is off to a fantastic start.

“Other than fairly high disease pressure, it’s looking outstanding,” said Anderson.

Saskatchewan Agriculture’s May 24 crop report lends support to Anderson’s assessment of the region.

Seeding is about half complete in crop districts 1B and 1A compared to six and nine percent at the same t i m e l a s t y e a r. Fl o o d i n g ha s occurred on two percent of seeded acres in the southeast.

Topsoil moisture maps show a small pocket of surplus moisture south of Yorkton compared to the entire corner of the province at this time last year.

Still, there are lingering concerns within the grain industry about

that area of the province.“People are watching it and talk-

ing about it,” said CWB market analyst Neil Townsend.

“I think the total acreage losses could be one to two million acres.”

He believes the area has already lost 300,000 to 400,000 acres of canola.

Anderson isn’t so sure. He said growers have been focused on get-ting canola into the ground.

He isn’t overly concerned about seeding in southeastern Saskatch-ewan, but disease potential is start-ing to worry him.

“We’re starting to get reports of stripe rust showing up in winter wheat. Tan spot is terrible right across the West. We’re also seeing powdery mildew showing up in southern Alberta.”

Anderson believes there is a high probability of a stripe rust outbreak in spring wheat, making it his top disease concern of 2012.

There are also plenty of insects for farmers to contend with. They overwintered well because of the unseasonably warm weather.

Diamondback moth larvae are his top insect concern. The moths showed up earlier than normal this year and have already laid their eggs.

Cutworms showed up two weeks early because of higher-than-nor-mal heat units in April. Flea beetles are also plentiful, as are other pests.

“We’re seeing really high levels of aster leaf hoppers, which transmit aster yellows virus in canola,” said Anderson.

SO, HOW DEEP DID YOU SAY THEY HAVE TO BE?

A federal government redesign of the Employment Insurance program to encourage unemployed Canadi-ans to take available local jobs is giv-ing agricultural employers a head-ache, say industry leaders.

“We think it will have a net negative effect on agriculture,” Mervin Wise-man, chair of the Canadian Agricul-tural Human Resources Council, said before appearing at a parlia-mentary committee to explain the agriculture industry’s employment challenges.

“I think the net effect will be to reduce our available labour force and add to the bureaucracy needed to bring in workers that we need.”

The CAHRC has said tens of thou-sands of agricultural jobs remain unfilled and the number will grow because local workers are uninter-ested in farm work and access to temporary foreign workers is limited.

Wiseman, a former farm leader in Newfoundland who uses foreign workers on his fox farm, complained t h a t t h e f e d e r a l g o v e r n m e n t announced changes without con-sulting with agriculture, one of the major employers of seasonal or tem-

porary workers.At its core, changes to the EI system

announced May 24 will require unem-ployed workers to apply for available jobs before they can continue to qualify for employment insurance.

There will be tiers of requirements for unemployed workers, depending on their frequency of EI use.

When she announced the changes, human resources and skills develop-ment minister Diane Finley said the changes will help agriculture fill the tens of thousands of jobs that the CAHRC says will remain unfilled.

“Canadians want to work and we want to connect them to jobs,” said Finley, who represents an agricultural riding in southwestern Ontario and is a former Conservative agriculture critic.

“So if it’s an agricultural job and there are everything from low skill or no skill to very advanced skills, if someone is unemployed in an area and has the skills that match the requirements of that particular agri-cultural job, then yes, they will be expected to apply for it.… And they will be expected, if offered, to take it. We want to redress the balance right now so that Canadians get first crack

at jobs before we bring in foreign temporary workers.”

However, she said it will not impede the ability of farm operators to bring in foreign workers.

“As long as the employer has demon-strated that he or she has tried out the local market and within reason, then they will not be barred from bringing in temporary foreign workers,” she said. “We need those people.”

Finley said under the program reforms, unemployed workers on EI will receive more frequent e-mail updates about available local jobs and will be expected to respond.

Wiseman said a survey of the coun-cil’s 300,000 agricultural members shows that there is a lot of uncertainty about the proposed impact of the EI changes.

He said many temporary foreign workers have been coming to Cana-da for years and have the skills required and a work ethic.

Forcing local unemployed workers to apply for jobs could mean a work-force that needs to be trained, does not want to be there and will leave shortly, requiring more training for new workers.

The federal government consistently under estimates the labour needs of the agricultural sector because of flawed surveys, says the main agricul-tural human resources lobby.

The implications are that policy mak-ers can misunderstand the number of workers needed in the agricultural sec-tor and where the supply is available.

“There is not a common approach to collecting agricultural labour data,” Canadian Agricultural Human Resources Council chair and former Newfoundland farm leader Merv Wiseman told MPs May 28.

“Nor do the numbers present a clear and accurate picture of the industry or labour market,” said his b r i e f t o t h e C o m m o n s hu ma n resources committee.

“Due to the large seasonal or har-vest workforce, combined with the increasing use of foreign workers, official statistics currently available may not be providing an accurate picture of agricultural employment.”

An example is the dif ference between calculating farm labour requirements in the Statistics Cana-da labour force survey and the Statis-tics Canada Census of Agriculture.

The former estimates employment on farms at 305,000, including 118,000 employees. The latter esti-mates 600,000 farm-related jobs with 300,000 of them employees.

The CAHRC told MPs that the dif-ference masks a serious labour short-age on farms.

“Local labour supply is considered in shortage and uncertain,” said the brief.

“Although farm operators employ nearly 300,000 employees, CAHRC research indicates there continues to be a 10 percent vacancy rate on farms.”

It represents a need for at least 30,000 farm workers with estimates of 50,000 within a few years.

The agriculture labour council brought its concerns to Parliament Hill as the government proposes new Employment Insurance rules that emphasize that local unemployed workers should be chosen first for local jobs before foreign workers are hired.

Foreign workers should be brought in only after the local labour pool doesn’t produce.

Wiseman said that is not a good fit for many farm operators who need workers when they are required at seeding and harvest.

Many have used the same foreign temporary workers for years because they understand what is needed.

“Temporary foreign workers are deemed reliable, motivated and effi-cient,” Wiseman said in his brief to MPs.

“They bring with them a multitude of skills that are beneficial for farm operators and they are present and hard working.”

Agriculture Canada’s funding for key industry policies cannot be esti-mated until Ottawa and the provinc-es agree on the next long-term agri-culture policy, says the department.

In a Plans and Priorities report tabled in Parliament last week, the depart-ment projected an annual eight per-cent increase in business risk manage-ment spending over the next three years because those programs are leg-islated to respond to demand.

However, the departmental plan shows sharp cuts in non-BRM pro-grams pending an expected April 1, 2013, launch of the next five-year agricultural policy framework.

Figures presented to MPs show a 17 percent cut in departmental spend-ing next year, from more than $3 bil-lion this year to less than $2.5 billion.

Meanwhile, the department is tell-ing Parliament that staff levels will remain at 6,117 over the next three years, despite deep civil service cuts planned to reduce the deficit.

The department said sharp cuts projected to environmental, science and competitiveness programs may not happen, depending on negotia-tions between federal and provincial ministers in September leading to the next five-year agricultural program.

“Due to the sunsetting in 2012-13 of the non-BRM Growing Forward pro-gram, many program activities show a reduction in planned spending,” said the departmental report.

“The development of the successor Growing Forward policy framework is currently underway and once in effect, will increase planned spending.”

In its outline of objectives for the agri-culture sector, the department stressed trade negotiations and efforts to improve competitiveness through regulatory reform and innovation.

The department is “leading and participating in applied scientific discovery, research and knowledge transfer to support the development of innovative products and processes which will improve the competitive-ness and profitability of the sector,” said the Agriculture Canada report.

The plan also includes regulatory and service changes that mean “embracing the transformation and renewal of departmental activities to deliver policies and programs effi-ciently and effectively.”

It said employees will be “engaged in the excellence agenda.”

With pink slips flowing freely in the federal government in the wake of government cuts, unions represent-ing Agriculture Canada employees argue that is another way of describ-ing job cuts.

BREAKDOWN ON THE HOME STRETCH

Canada’s farm debt rose by more than $4 billion last year despite record commodity prices and farm receipts, says Statistics Canada.

It was a six percent increase from the previous year.

The $69.6 billion debt marked the 19th consecutive year that farm debt has increased in Canada, almost tri-pling since the last year of debt decline in 1992.

Total farm debt has increased 25 percent since 2007.

Retired University of Guelph agri-cultural economist George Brink-man has argued that Canada’s farm debt level is a competitive disadvan-tage because per capita farm debt is much lower in the United States.

He has called Canada’s farm debt level a “ticking time bomb.”

Debt servicing charges of more than $2.3 billion were one of the larg-est farm expenses off the farm bot-tom line last year.

Alberta, with a $1.1 billion debt increase last year and more than 22 percent of the national debt, is sec-ond only to Ontario in debt owed at $15.7 billion.

Meanwhile, national farm asset values including land and buildings, livestock and machinery but exclud-ing quota, increased by $18 billion last year to $326 billion.

Agricultural analysts say the farm debt increase, prompted in part by years of low interest rates, comes as farmers buy high-priced land to

The farm revenue boom that hit in 2011 with a 12 percent increase in cash receipts continued with a flour-ish during the first quarter of 2012.

Statistics Canada reported last week that cash receipts during the first three months of 2012 increased 17 percent over the previous year’s record levels.

The numbers showed a continued shift of agricultural income domi-nance from Ontario to the Prairies and an improvement in both crop and livestock sectors.

The statistics also show a sharp increase in farm operating expenses, up 10 percent last year to $3.4 billion.

“This is really the impact of the fact that commodity prices have jumped and farm incomes generally are in a good place,” said Canadian Federa-tion of Agriculture president Ron Bonnett.

“The underbelly always is the cost of inputs and while prices and receipts are up, a good portion of that gets swallowed up by higher costs.”

Commodity prices can drop quickly, while input prices that rise with com-modity prices usually are slower to fall once the bubble bursts, Bonnett said.

Richard Gray, acting head of the University of Saskatchewan’s bio-resource policy, business and eco-nomics department, said the strong market returns signal unusual times for Canadian agriculture.

“What’s unusual is having both beef and grain doing well at the same time,” he said.

That means the current boom will echo into the future, said Gray, who runs his own farm in Saskatchewan.

According to the Statistics Canada data, the strongest showing during the first quarter of 2012 was in the crops sector, where the value of sales was $1.7 billion higher than last year. Most of the increase came in strong sales of canola from the record 2011 crop and deferred grain receipts from the previous year.

It meant that the strongest growth in sales revenue occurred on the Prairies, where market revenue increases ranged from 15 percent in Manitoba to 28 percent in Alberta.

Ontario, traditionally Canada’s largest agricultural province, now rates third in farm receipts behind Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Despite strong market returns, program payments still accounted for $818 million in income during the first quarter of 2012, including $408 million in crop insurance and $200 million in AgriStability pay-ments.

Hog receipts climbed almost 10 percent to more than $1 billion and cattle receipts were up more than 12 percent to almost $1.7 billion.

The robust beginning to the new year followed 2011 farm cash receipts that were more than $5 billion higher than the previous year, totalling almost $50 billion.

expand and expensive dairy and poultry quota and machinery to accommodate larger operations.

It is a sign of optimism and invest-ment in the industry, but it also leaves farmers vulnerable if interest rates rise because debt is serviced from cash flow rather than rising asset values.

“I would say it shows farmers mak-ing long-term investments to posi-tion themselves for future competi-tiveness, and that is positive,” said Canadian Federation of Agriculture president Ron Bonnett.

“However, one of the things we have to be cautious of is whether the debt load is sustained only by low interest rates. If there was a spike, farmers would have to react, and could they?”

Bonnett, who lived through the double-digit interest rates of the 1980s, said a trap farmers entered then was signing floating interest rate agreements that saw their debt ser-vicing costs escalate.

“There are better instruments these days, but it is something farmers have to keep in mind as a financial management tool,” Bonnett said.

Richard Gray, acting head of the University of Saskatchewan’s bio-resource policy, business and eco-nomics department, said many farmers benefiting from high com-modity prices could accommodate higher debt and even some increase in interest rates.

However, some farmers are heavily leveraged.

“As it was in the 1980s, there is a distributional issue,” said Gray, days after finishing seeding at his Sas-katchewan grain farm.

“A lot of that debt is held by farmers who are highly leveraged and they are good managers but also vulner-able.”

At the George Morris Centre in Guelph, Ont., senior research analyst Larry Martin said the ever-rising farm debt level does not mean “the sky is falling.”

“But are we more vulnerable to risk? Absolutely, we are more sus-ceptible, for sure,” he said.

Martin argued that an interest rate increase of one or two percent would not make much difference.

“A four or five percent increase would have a huge impact.”

One factor of the latest farm debt numbers is that the share held by chartered banks, while still the larg-est, has been falling and federal gov-ernment agencies, including Farm Credit Canada, have been claiming a larger share.

Credit unions remain a distant third in farm debt holding with less than 16 percent.

According to Statistics Canada data, farm debt since 2007 has increased by $14 billion while the n u m b e r o f c e n s u s f a r m s h a s decreased by more than 10 per-cent.

A grain market analyst says wheat prices are approaching the point where farmers should consider lock-ing up a sizable portion of their anticipated harvest.

Prices rebounded earlier this month in response to reports of poor crops in the Black Sea region and the European Union and trouble with the winter wheat crop in Kansas.

“We’ve been waiting for something like this to develop,” said Derek Squair, president of Agri-Trend Mar-keting Inc.

He believes wheat is still underval-ued, but it is approaching the target price the company has set for its growers of $7.75 to $8 per bushel for No. 1 Canada Western Red Spring Wheat for fall delivery.

The average price was around $7.25 per bu. late last week, which is where it was three or four months ago. In between it fell to a low of $6.65 per bu.

“We’ve got a little ways to go yet, but it looks like it’s starting,” said Squair.

Any further problems with the U.S. winter wheat crop or with excess moisture in southeastern Saskatch-ewan could push prices into the tar-get range in the next month or two. Much will also depend on Russia and Australia, which have been dry but got welcome rain on the weekend.

If problems develop that push wheat futures a little higher, growers should consider selling enough wheat to cover their variable costs, which could represent 25 to 40 per-cent of their anticipated harvest.

CWB analyst Neil Townsend is more bullish on wheat than he was a couple of weeks ago.

“There’s going to be some positives for price,” he said.

“If we start to have problems in corn, then holy cow, the game is on.”

In its latest monthly crop outlook update, the International Grains Council cut its estimate of world wheat production by five million tonnes to 671 million tonnes in 2012-13. It reduced Russia’s wheat crop by three million tonnes and the Euro-pean Union’s by two million tonnes.

Townsend said countries like Egypt are going to have to look somewhere else for their wheat, particularly the United States. That is going to lead to tighter supplies and higher prices for U.S. and Canadian wheat.

There may also be serious competi-tion for available export capacity

Canadian farmers are planting more canola than Agriculture Can-ada is forecasting, say grain indus-try executives and observers.

The latest official government estimate released May 24 is for 20.4 million acres of the oilseed, based on the Statistics Canada March seeding intentions surveys.

Wes Anderson, manager of agrono-my for Richardson International, Canada’s second largest grain com-pany, thinks that number is far too low.

“I would say 21.5 million acres would be a pretty good guess at this point,” he said.

Those extra acres would result in an additional 860,000 tonnes of production using Agriculture Can-ada’s average yield estimate.

“Overall, I think we’re setting up for a big canola crop for sure,” said Anderson.

Based on his observations, the only thing that could change his 21.5 million acre estimate is a weather delay that pushes the end of seeding into June.

“Quite frankly, I think that will actually increase canola acres, if anything, as long as seed supply is there,” he said.

Growers can still achieve good yields when seeding canola in the first week of June, and the quality concerns are less of an issue than they are with competing crops such as wheat.

“A lot of producers would look at No. 2 canola and say, ‘I can still make lots of money on that as opposed to No. 3 wheat or feed wheat,’ ” said Anderson.

George Shelswell, director of oilseeds marketing with Bayer CropScience, said the size of the crop is still up in the air because large areas of northern Saskatche-wan have yet to be seeded.

“If the weather is favourable, we could be closer to 21 (million acres), but there’s also a good chance we could be down at 20 mil-

lion,” he said.Bayer varieties are expected to

account for 50 percent of the canola that goes in the ground this spring. Shelswell said there is enough seed in the marketplace to plant 21 mil-lion acres.

History shows farmers typically plant 100 to 105 percent of the

canola that they tell Statistics Can-ada they will plant in the March seeding intentions report.

That would result in a crop of 21.4 million acres at the high end of the scale, but Shelswell thinks it will be closer to 21 million acres.

Grain industry analyst Larry Weber is predicting 21.1 million acres based on a survey of farmers who told him they plan to increase their plantings by an average of 9.9 percent over last year’s crop.

That would result in almost one million more tonnes of production than in 2011-12, but Weber is fore-casting a modest 89,000 tonne increase in carryout because of a smaller overall supply of the crop.

Shelswell isn’t concerned about canola plantings exceeding Agri-culture Canada’s estimate. What-ever growers harvest in the fall will not result in a burdensome supply.

“The demand will be there to consume that volume,” he said.

After the recent fall in canola and soybean prices, the smart money is still on the vegetable oil crops to have the biggest chance of a rally this sum-mer.

Analysts tend to think wheat prices could pop up if emerging production problems reduce world supplies.

However, few see much reason for feedgrains to rally unless weather problems are severe.

“We’d have to have such a dramatic problem with corn yields for a third year in a row to even suggest a neutral stand on crop prices,” said Rich Nel-son of the Illinois market analysis firm Allendale Inc.

“The only one that has any chance of rebound is soybeans.”

C ro p p r i c e s hav e b e e n w e a k recently , part ly because good weather in North America allowed farmers to seed large acreages ear-ly, providing reason to hope for big yields this summer.

Weather problems in some parts of the northern hemisphere, such as in the U.S. hard red winter wheat area, Ukraine and Russia near the Black Sea, lent support to crop prices recently, but those problems have not yet inspired a general crop mar-ket rally.

Canola and soybean prices fell sharply recently, losing much of the ground they had gained against

crops like corn and wheat since March.

That slump has brought oilseeds closer to the trend for the overall commodities complex, and most analysts say the overall tone is likely to make all crop prices weak over the summer.

Worldwide economic problems are making markets jittery and many analysts are slashing their growth

estimates, reducing the need for commodities of all sorts.

“In the big picture, we expect nothing but sliding lower prices in the coming weeks and months,” said Nelson.

“The trade believes lower econom-ic activity will lower the need for energy and that wil l lower the demand for crops.”

Energy commodity prices often lead crop prices because soybeans

and canola can be used to make biodiesel and wheat and corn can be used to make ethanol.

Errol Anderson of Pro Market Com-munications agreed.

“We’re in a deflationary pattern in the markets,” said Anderson, who has been bearish on crop prices for months.

He said farmers need to take advan-tage of rallies they see this summer because they won’t last.

“We’ll have volatility, but even if we have a (crop production) disaster, it (prices) won’t hold,” said Anderson.

“That’s the nature of the markets.”Analyst Greg Kostal of Kostal Con-

sulting expects canola to have the greatest chance at shooting higher temporarily, based on its ever-increasing demand growth. With demand growing, any overall vegoil tightening or specific canola prob-lems will trigger buying by users and speculators.

“Whatever happens to soybeans, canola as a vegetable oil crop can stay relatively rich,” said Kostal.

“It’s been that way for the last six months and I think it can stay that way for the next six months,”

Summer is always a weather mar-ket, when production problems can substantially change the supply demand outlook in a few days. No crops look critically short or critically oversupplied at the moment, but analysts have been generally bullish on oilseeds and generally bearish on

corn because of longer-term trends.World stocks for corn and soybeans

should have 50 to 60 days of supply remaining at the end of the 2012-13 year, based on U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates, but that simi-larity masks a significant difference: the world has become used to low levels of corn, but not low levels of soybeans.

Two years ago there were almost 80 days supply of soybeans.

“Supplies are much tighter on a relative basis,” said Kostal about the soybean situation this year.

However, corn and feedgrain markets have become comfortable with low stocks and know how to compensate.

“It has had the biggest supply deficit, and the consumptive patterns are adjusting to repair that now,” said Kos-tal.

World wheat supplies are far from short but analysts have noticed a steady tightening of supplies in recent weeks and some expect to see them tighten further if dry weather in a number of places reduces crop potential.

Oats had seen a rally recently, but then a plummeting selloff occurred and knocked prices down 50 cents per bushel in two days.

That doesn’t make Oatinsight ana-lyst Randy Strychar change his bull-ish view of the oat outlook.

“This is all technical,” he said of the selloff. “The production numbers are awfully friendly.”

from what is expected to be large U.S. corn and soybean crops, which could pressure prices higher.

And then there’s Australia’s crop. The United States is forecasting a 26 million tonne crop, but forecasters are calling for an El Nino weather event, which would result in dry con-ditions later in the growing season.

“They thought they were going to get 26 million tonnes lots of times and they end up at 18 or 17 or 16,” said Townsend.

One bearish factor in the wheat market is that the recent price hike has made it less favourable to use as a substitute for corn in feed rations.

Townsend believes the U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture will reduce the amount of wheat used for feed in the U.S. in the June edition of its World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates.

The USDA has penciled in 230 mil-lion bu. of wheat going for feed, a 28 percent increase over last year. That number will surely drop, given the increase in wheat prices and the fact that the corn crop will likely be har-vested three weeks ahead of sched-ule, which should drive down the basis levels for corn.

Townsend said there is a lot of resis-tance to feeding wheat in the U.S. because it has to be used for the whole cycle of an animal’s life. Live-stock producers would rather use corn, sorghum or distillers grain.

He also anticipates a slowdown in Chinese feed wheat demand. China has been buying a lot of U.S. corn, but it has also bought 2.4 million tonnes of wheat in 2012-13, about half of which has been Australian feed wheat.

Australian feed wheat had been cheaper than U.S. corn, but that is no longer the case. China will switch back to corn if the U.S. harvests a large corn crop, as expected.

The International Grains Council is forecasting 1.8 million tonnes of Chi-nese wheat imports in 2012-13, down

from 2.8 million tonnes this year.There is still strong demand for mill-

ing wheat as China’s citizens increas-ingly embrace western fast food res-taurants, said U.S. Wheat Associates spokesperson Steve Mercer.

“There are two or three McDonald’s opening every day there,” he said.

The country needs to bring in high quality wheat to blend with its domestic medium protein wheat to create flour suitable for making western-style food.

China has imported 600,000 tonnes of U.S. wheat in 2011-12, most of which was bread wheat.

Oat futures fell hard last week, illustrating the problems of a market that suffers from

inadequate liquidity.Feeds in general fell, with corn

futures falling nine percent between the closes of May 18 and May 25.

But oats fell harder, dropping 13 percent.

Corn and oat prices are closely linked because they are both feeds, so why the steeper loss in oats?

There is an adage in grain markets that “oats knows” meaning oat prices often move ahead of the pack, or a trend in oats will soon be followed by other crops. But maybe the trend setting aura about oats is being lost as its trade vol-ume falls far behind other crops.

Corn fell because the U.S. crop was seeded early under generally excel-lent conditions, leading to the poten-tial for high yields. Corn was also

pressured as investors sold com-modities, preferring to park money in the safety of U.S. treasury bonds while anxieties grow over the Greek debt crisis and China’s slowing economy.

Similar factors were at play in the oat market, but the corn market has huge volume with hundreds of thou-sands of trades daily while the oat market gets by with 2,000 or 3,000 trades daily.

When someone wants to sell corn futures, someone is there to buy the contract. That liquidity is not guaran-teed in oats and so price movements can be exaggerated, which is what appears to have happened last week.

Liquidity — lots of buyers and sell-ers — is the lifeblood of markets. ICE Futures Canada’s new wheat, durum and barley contracts have yet to gen-erate liquidity. The real test for them will come when the new crop year begins and a cash market for the new crop develops.

If they don’t attract buyers and sell-ers, their problems will be far larger than that of the oat market.

Turning to another topic, I wrote a few weeks ago that I would make a bigger effort to identify events and dates beyond the usual major supply and demand reports that could move

markets.One is the week of June 25, when

Chinese premier Wen Jiabao is expected to visit Argentina.

Agriculture officials from the two countries are rushing to work out the final differences related to China’s requirements regarding genetically modified corn so that Wen can sign trade agreements that will launch corn sales between the two coun-tries. China now imports corn mostly from the United States, and its recent purchases have helped keep corn values high.

But it wants to diversity its sources and for several months has been negotiating with Argentina, the world’s second largest corn exporter. China wants to ensure that the GM varieties Argentine farmers grow are the ones it has approved.

China also recently began import-ing non-GM corn from Ukraine, a rapidly rising corn producer.

American corn sellers rub their palms together at the prospect of steadily rising Chinese corn imports, but the Chinese are working hard to ensure they will have a choice of competitive suppliers.

BY ED WHITEWINNIPEG BUREAU & REUTERS NEWS AGENCY

Reports of Chinese buyers backing away from new purchases have spooked world markets for pork, corn and soybeans, which rely on assumptions of continuing heavy purchases from the growing nation.

A number of news agencies report that Chinese oilseed crushers have cut production because of losses. Soybean prices have recently fallen, but so too have domestic Chinese soyoil and soymeal prices, reducing their margins.

Pork prices, which had been rising and were a major portion of food price inflation, are now falling because of rising domestic produc-tion. This is causing Chinese hog farmers to lose money and that is prompting the government to quick-ly develop programs to create storage for domestic pork.

“All eyes are focusing on China and their import levels,” said Greg Kostal of Kostal Consulting in Winnipeg.

Rich Nelson of Allendale, Inc. agreed.

“Everyone notices when China stops buying.”

China’s future demand is a riddle to outside analysts. It is a market of pro-found importance to producers of most world commodities, but its buying habits are unpredictable.

Unlike Japan, which generally buys about the same amount from the world markets every year, China can

jump into markets with a big splash or leap out completely.

This often has a major impact on prices.

C h i n a’s f u t u re d e m a n d a l s o appears to be a mystery to its govern-ment and agricultural economists, who are faced with a massive and complex economy that is rapidly transforming.

Chinese agricultural economists say surges in domestic pork supply occur because small farmers jump into production when prices are high and stop producing when prices are low.

Surging input prices mean Chinese hog farmers are losing money even though pork prices are high.

The recent 15 percent drop in the price of pork combined with higher input prices has destroyed hog farm-ers’ margins.

Some China watchers think recent official statements and articles in state approved media suggest the Chinese government is beginning to buy up domestic pork to boost prices. There are also plans to build storage facilities for domestic pork that could store meat in low price periods and release it in higher priced periods.

Corn markets have also been rat-tled by signs of shrinking Chinese demand.

Kostal said he thinks there is a limit to the downside in Chinese demand. China will no longer stop buying and consuming products just because they become expensive to import or too

CANFAX REPORT

HOGS DROP

U.S. hog prices fell back following the rally in advance of Memorial Day. Pork cutouts fell and wholesale and export pork demand is slow.

Average U.S. bar row and gi l t weights are 276.1 pounds, up from 270.9 lb. last year at the same time.

April U.S. frozen pork stocks were higher than expected.

Iowa-southern Minnesota live hogs fell to $62 US per cwt. May 25 from $64 May 18.

U.S. pork carcass cut-out values fell to $77.97 May 25, down from $81.48

May 18.The U.S. federal weekly slaughter

was estimated at 2.069 million, down from 2.113 million the previous week.

BISON STEADY

The Canadian Bison Association said grade A bulls in the desirable weight range were $3.65-$3.90 Cdn per pound hot hanging weight. Grade A heifers were $3.60-$3.90.

Animals outside the desirable weight range and parameters may be discounted.

Slaughter cows and bulls averaged $2.40-$2.60.

In the live market, heifers born in 2011 were $2-$2.40 and bulls were $2.25-$2.65.

SHEEP PRICES FALL

Ontario Stockyards Inc. reported 1,168 sheep and lambs and eight goats traded May 22. All well-fin-ished lambs sold barely steady. Plainer and under-finished types sold under pressure. Sheep traded $ 3 - $ 5 c w t . l o w e r. G o a t s s o l d steady.

The weak loonie helped Canadian cash cattle prices, despite a U.S. cash and futures market that trended lower after a strong start prompted by the bull-ish May 18 U.S. cattle-on-feed report.

Cattle futures fell on higher than expected U.S. stocks of meat in cold storage in April. Worries over the euro zone debt crisis also weighed on futures.

A significantly larger show list in the United States reduced American packer interest in Canadian cattle.

Fed steers averaged $113.09 per hundredweight, up 87 cents, and heifers were $112.46, up $1.11.

Sale volume fell one percent to 20,647 head.

The Alberta fed cash-to-futures basis weakened by more than $1.50 to ‐$7.94.

Weekly western Canadian fed cattle slaughter to May 19 was steady at 36,747 head.

North American market-ready vol-umes are seasonally increasing and Canadian packers have a comfort-able supply.

COWS UP

A light offering because of the Vic-toria Day holiday forced packers to increase bids to acquire cattle.

D1, D2 cows ranged $75-$87 to average $80.30 per cwt.

D3 cows traded $66-$80 to average $71.75, up $6 over last year.

Rail grade prices were $153-$158.Demand for high yielding bulls is

strong with sales up to $107 per cwt.Weekly exports to May 12 totalled

2,918, down 23 percent from the pre-vious week.

FEEDERS RISE

The weaker loonie also helped feeder prices.

The Canfax average steer price was $1.40 higher, and heifers rose $1.53.

Buyer interest was diverse as small-er farm operators expressed interest in grass-type cattle.

Following 13 weeks of lower prices, 300‐400 pounds steers surged and are now trading $17 higher than their heifer counterparts.

Calf supplies are dwindling and quality is mixed.

The August feeder futures contract holds a $6 premium over the expiring May contract.

Auction volume totalled 13,877, down 23 percent.

Weekly feeder exports to May 12 totalled 4,993, up 11 percent.

Uniform load lot packages of feed-

ers will continue to test the top end of the price range.

Feeders placed against the fourth quarter should hold firm because market-ready supplies look to be tight. However, broader market uncertainty and high cost of gain will likely keep a cap on the feeder market.

BEEF PRICES HIGHER

Red meat stocks as of April 30 in the U.S. were larger than expected.

Total beef stocks were 517.5 million pounds, up 16.8 percent over last year and the largest inventory since November 2006.

Stocks of ground beef were strongly up, affected by the lean fine textured beef controversy.

CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — CME Group is considering extending open-outcry grain trading at the Chi-cago Board of Trade by 45 minutes to close at 2 p.m. CDT, an exchange spokesperson said.

Grain firms have lobbied CME to push back the close of pit trading to match it with newly expanded hours for electronic trading.

CME also announced it would open pit trading early on days that the U.S. government issues crop reports.

Since electronic hours increased May 21, some merchandisers and grain elevators have based cash grain prices off the newly implemented end of electronic trading at 2 p.m., while others have based prices off the open-outcry settlement at 1:15 p.m., causing confusion.

CME plans to change the method-ology for determining end-of-day settlement prices for its grain and oilseed futures starting June 25, pending U.S. regulatory approval. The new procedure would include activity from both the open-outcry and electronic trading pits.

For now, the U.S. Department of Agriculture plans to keep its release schedule but said it would consider changing the release time in the f u t u r e , n o w t h a t c o m m o d i t y exchanges are open nearly all day.

USDA said it would announce the formal opening of a public comment period in the coming weeks. Farm groups expect a 30-day period.

Canadian Pacific Railway is mak-ing its share of news lately, not the least of which is the pension battle

with one of its largest unions.Teamsters union members walked

off the job because they are worried about their futures, while the company is determined to “achieve changes to legacy pension and post-retirement benefits to make them industry com-parable,” as said in an Apri l news release.

The labour struggle came on the heels of the Canadian Transportation Agency’s announcement that the railway revenue cap will be increased by 9.5 percent this year, in large part due to higher wages and, of course, pension benefits at the railways.

The direct relationship of these is not lost on western Canadian farmers.

The Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association, for example, fired off a letter to federal labour minister Lisa Raitt, ask-ing her to ensure farmers’ interests are accounted for in any arbitrated settle-ment.

“Measures need to be taken to bring these costs under control,” said president Kevin Bender. “Allowing the railway unions to strike and extract even more from farmers is not the answer.”

The wheat growers association has suggested that allowances for wages and benefits should be in line with what is provided in more competitive indus-tries, such as trucking. However, rail-roading in Western Canada is not com-petitive, and therein lies the entire problem.

Although there has been a brouhaha over management at CPR, the monopoly is working out well for the railways. Cana-dian National Railway, by far the larger entity, had 2011 revenues of slightly more than $9 billion with net income of $2.5 billion, a 27 percent profit margin. CPR’s revenues were slightly less than $5.2 bil-lion, with net income of $570 million, or an 11 percent profit margin.

The strike and its ultimate resolution aside, there will be more interesting times

on the way for shippers using CPR.Just days before the Teamsters walked

out, activist investor Bill Ackman of Per-shing Square successfully dislodged chief executive officer Fred Green, who resigned after shareholders clearly sup-ported Ackman’s view of the company’s underperformance.

For now, CPR is being run by an interim CEO. Ackman’s permanent choice, Hunter Harrison, is waiting to be installed as the new company leader.

Harrison, known a cost-cutter, will c er t a i nl y l o o k f o r ways to re du ce expenses at CPR. Before the proxy battle for CPR shareholder support was won, he made it clear that he will control costs and improve the railway’s operating efficiency.

CPR does have extremely high operat-ing costs. Its operating ratio in 2011 was 81.3 percent — the highest in North America — which the new management wants to bring down to 65 percent. By comparison, CN’s is 64.7 percent, although that’s up from 2011.

The Harrison-Ackman plan may or may not work out for shippers, depending on how cost-cutting measures affect service, but if slashing costs results in a lower rev-enue cap in the future, that will be a ben-efit to farmers.

However, the railways are in the envi-able position of not having to push their unions too hard; their monopolies pro-vide considerable protection. Railways can provide good packages to their employees and then dictate rates to their customers. For western Canadian farmers and industries, there are no options.

Until competition is improved — for example, by instituting joint running rights — service will not improve and rates will continue to rise. Western farm-ers are hostages to the double-monopoly railway system.

CRAIG’S VIEW

FARM DEBT | STATISTICS CANADA

They would never state it so bluntly but this appears to be the Conservative government

position on the unionized worker’s right to collective bargaining:

You workers may exercise your con-stitutional right to bargain for a better or even a standstill contract only so long as it does not affect anyone.

The moment you attempt to exer-cise your bargaining rights and it

affects anyone else, forget it. The government will end your little fan-tasy of a modicum of economic power with back-to-work legislation that almost always favours the employer.

Canada Post’s unionized employees went on strike to save some of their benefits? Back to work, laggards, because Aunt Millie who voted Con-servative won’t be able to get her junk mail telling her all the glorious things her Conservative MP is doing for her.

Air Canada employees str ike because of arrogant management and cutbacks? Back to work, you lag-gards, because it is a school break week and hard working Canadians (and potential Conservative voters) have booked flights to get away from the drudgery that is Canada.

Canadian Pacific Railway employ-

ees, faced with company demands that they concede a significant reduction in their pension benefits that they have paid into for years, go on strike and within days, the Con-servatives break the strike.

Farmers on the Prairies demanded it because their products in and out are not moving.

It is a legitimate complaint, but is the problem workers who are trying to maintain the support programs they had purchased and been prom-ised — a bit like how farmers would react if the government suddenly announced the programs they have been paying into and counting on were being changed to save money — or is the problem the company with strong profits?

Still, Conservatives scored some more rural political points by moving

quickly to shut down a strike that was hurting the agricultural base that supports it.

Ever y dollar earned by a CPR employee is a dollar out of their pocket.

Farmers, of course, have no sympa-thy for striking CPR employees because they know from experience that the railway always plays fair when it is in the driver’s seat.

But this latest Conservative rush to end an economically damaging rail strike raises a serious issue.

Is there a right to strike in this coun-try or is there not?

Labour actions affect people. That is their purpose.

Without the right of employees to strike, employers have no incentive to compromise.

If every time a legal strike affects the

economy and the government reaction is to close it down, the employer knows there is no need to bargain. Hold tough and let legislation deal with it.

The alternative, of course, is to declare certain sectors “essential services,” which requires no strikes but an agreement that balances the interests of both sides.

It works in some health-care work settings but not in the hurly burley of the marketplace.

Instead, that’s where the strongest wins, unless of course they are losing and people are being hurt and then it’s time to call in the feds to end the hurt.

So is this a country with a constitu-tional right to collective bargaining or isn’t it?

The Conservative government answer seems to be no, if anyone is being affected.

& OPEN FORUM

BY DOUG CHORNEY

The recently released 2011 agri-cultural census shows that the number of farms in Canada

has decreased by 10.3 percent, while the average farm size has increased by 6.9 percent.

This doesn’t mean that family farm operators are getting out and leaving farming to corporations with little interest in sustaining the land and the communities that have been a vital part of western Canadian agri-culture since the 1800s.

Rather, it means that families are consolidating to take advantage of economies of scale, a necessity that has resulted from the competitive and protective environment of global agriculture.

The term “corporate farming” is often used in a derogatory fashion by those who don’t understand these realities. However, farmers must be astute businesspeople if they are to succeed in this current agricultural climate, and incorporation is a good way to address tax and succession planning.

Family corporations accounted for 87.8 percent of all farm corporations in 2011, according to the census report.

These families live on their farms and contribute to their communities. They have a vested concern for the soil, the ground water and the sur-face water that support their liveli-hoods.

They also tend to buy locally, which means support for local agri-product retailers, seed dealers, equipment dealers, fuel suppliers and construc-tion companies.

They also make family purchases at the local level, including groceries, clothing and household items.

This adds up to local jobs on which rural sustainability is based.

Reading between the lines of the census, however, one can see that this sustainability is being threat-ened.

The report indicates that slightly more than 48 percent of farm opera-tors are older than 55, compared with slightly more than 40 percent in 2006 and 32 percent in 1991. The farming population is growing older because fewer young people are taking up the call of the land.

Farm and rural depopulation is an unfortunate reality, and Keystone Agricultural Producers is working to address it.

We actively engage young farmers, inviting them to join committees and

participate in KAP’s decision-mak-ing process. We reach out to them in their agricultural studies at the Uni-versity of Manitoba and Assiniboine Community College.

Most importantly, we create policies and lobby government for programs that will benefit young farmers.

I would be remiss if I didn’t say that governments listen and recognize the importance of this new genera-tion of farmers.

Both provincial and federal governments have responded with a vari-

ety of programming.Manitoba Agriculture, through the

Manitoba Agricultural Services Corp., has created the Bridging Gen-erations Initiative that provides financing options that position young farmers to succeed the retiring generation.

Federal programs are also aimed at

young farmers, including low-cost loan options through Farm Credit Canada.

Most recently, a new Young Farmer Loan was announced to offer added support for young farmers who need to buy land and buildings.

The synonym for farmer is “eternal optimist,” and as a farmer, I am opti-mistic that all of our efforts, both cur-rent and future, will help young peo-ple come back to the farms.

I am equally optimistic that KAP and other organizations like ours across the country will succeed in busting the myth that farm corpora-tions are owned by outside interests and not local farm families.

It may have been a rhetorical question, but western Canadian farmers did not care.

Wh en pr i me mi n i st er P i e r re Trudeau asked protesting farmers in Saskatoon, “why should I sell your wheat?” in 1969, he obliterated the Liberal vote in rural Western Canada. In farmers’ view, that question sim-ply illustrated Trudeau’s arrogance and lack of understanding of the West. It didn’t matter that Trudeau’s rehetorical question was taken com-pletely out of context. Coupled with Trudeau’s energy policies, crippling at the time to Alberta, any significant Liberal vote was toast — and remains so today.

In 1968, Trudeau won 27 out of 68 western seats; in 1980, he managed two out of 77. In 2011, the Liberals won four of 92.

Is it possible that federal NDP leader Thomas Mulcair is unaware of this history? As the new opposition leader, striving for the prime minis-ter’s office, he should reconsider alienating the West, not that the NDP vote is all that strong now.

Mulcair is arguing that western energy resources are pulling up the dollar and dragging down manufacturing. This is a natural west versus east rift-creator, which is also debatable. Some econo-mists dispute the dollar relationship, attributing a part of manufacturing’s decline to energy exports.

The second part of Mulcair’s argu-ment is that polluters should pay — specifically, that the companies yanking bitumen out of the ground in Alberta should be nailed for their emissions. Perhaps they should, but it is not logical to focus only on the oilsands with this argument. Manu-facturers also create significant emissions. Would new taxes on emissions also be applied to the east-ern companies that Mulcair is defending?

Furthermore, should Mulcair win this argument, what effects might there be on other western industries, such as potash mining? Several such industries have a considerable impact on the economic health of rural Western Canada.

It seems Mulcair is pushing away the western vote.

He does so at his peril. It is not just the western vote at stake here, but western power. As the western econ-omies grow, the more political power they generate, the more manufactur-ing assistance they require, even from Ontario, and the more revenues they contribute to federal coffers.

Alienating the West on a slim ener-gy policy that is not entirely logical may not be his best first salvo.

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

JOANNE PAULSON, EDITOR

Are the good times really here? I recently gave a presentation on that topic to a group of

farm lenders at a meeting in Alberta. Of course, they already knew the

answer. What everyone really wants to know is if the good times will last.

These are definitely good times for grain and oilseed producers. Big money is being made as long as pro-ducers can seed and harvest a decent crop.

These are also great times for cow-calf producers. They aren’t getting rich as fast as their grain farming neighbours, but calf prices have rarely, if ever, been so buoyant.

The picture isn’t rosy in all sectors.

Feedlot operations faced with high calf prices and high feed grain costs aren’t having much fun. And it’s still a slow grind for pork producers. After an unprecedented period of negative margins and industry con-solidation, profitability remains elusive.

However, agriculture on the Prai-ries is dominated by grain farms and cow-calf operations. It’s a rare treat to have them both f inancial ly healthy.

One of the lenders at the meeting, a fellow with about as much grey hair as me, quipped that good loans are made in bad times. Conversely, bad loans are made in good t imes. There’s a lot of truth to that.

The price of farmland is rising rap-idly, particularly in Saskatchewan. It’s a bit reminiscent of the huge run-up in farmland values in the 1970s and early 1980s.

That bubble burst when grain pric-es softened and interest rates sky-rocketed. Land prices tumbled, eras-ing farmer equity. Lending institu-tions ended up owning large tracts of

farmland. It took years for them to sell it off and along the way lenders were on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars in losses.

Younger farmers and lenders don’t fully appreciate the pain of that era. Some believe farmland will always increase in value. After all, that’s been the trend for the past 15 years or more.

Is there anything that could burst the bubble to end the boom? Any-thing that would make debt difficult to service?

According to Statistics Canada, Canadian farmers now have a total farm debt of $69.6 billion, the highest ever. It increased by $4 billion last year alone.

Interest rates will have to rise at some point. While a rise of a percent-age point or two would squeeze some borrowers, it’s hard to believe that we’re going to see rates of 10, 15 or 20 percent like we did in the 1980s.

A world economic downturn seems a more likely threat. If the world economy sputters, don’t expect to see $13 a bushel canola.

There could also be risks in a world economy that’s hot. Input costs, par-ticularly the price of fertilizer, could erode farm margins.

In the beef industry, a disease out-break is one of the greatest macro risks. The one that pops into every-one’s head is the dreaded foot-and-mouth disease. Like the 2003 discov-ery of BSE in Canada, foot-and-mouth could have long-lasting rami-fications.

Timing can make or break a farm-ing career. If you bought high-priced farmland in 1981 or made a major beef herd expansion in 2002, you’ve seen some tough times. On the other hand, if you were buying farmland half a dozen years ago before the run-up in grain prices, you now look like a financial wizard.

Good times never last forever. Farmers borrowing money are hop-ing they last long enough to pay down the loan.

NDP leader’s oilsand stance ignores history


SAVE MOTHERWELL

To the Editor:

In reference to the story (WP, May 17) about the cuts to Motherwell Homestead National Historic Site and Grasslands National Park, I offer the following thoughts.

Our four daughters have spent countless hours at Mother well Homestead NHS. They watched their grandfather plow the first furrows to open up the “living farm,” they have attended school tours with thou-sands of other young Saskatche-wanians and they have learned about the connections between their past and their present at this marvelous Canadian park.

As residents in the Abernethy area, we have taken visitors from all over the world to learn about this impor-tant part of Saskatchewan history. Our children need to learn about the early settlers who came here, their vision for this land and how daily life was for them. In a culture increas-ingly removed from the land, visitors of all ages learn about where our food comes from.

We can read about this history and we can learn about it on a YouTube video, but there is no substitute for having first-hand experiences about what it might have been like 100 years ago.

We forget much of what we read or watch on a screen, but what child has ever forgotten the miracle of picking

a warm, freshly laid egg from a nest, the scratchy feel of straw from the threshing machine on a hot August day, or the delicious smell of bread coming from a woodstove?...

The mandate of Parks Canada reads: “On behalf of the people of Canada, we protect and present nationally significant examples of Canada’s natural and cultural heri-tage, and foster public understand-ing, appreciation and enjoyment in ways that ensure the ecological and commemorative integrity of these places for present and future genera-tions.”

The Motherwell Homestead is a significant example of Canada’s cul-tural heritage…. The significant cuts to the Motherwell Homestead do not

Sue Bland,Abernethy, Sask.

DIVISIVE STANCE

To the Editor:

Thomas Mulcair is yet again attempting to divide Canadians with his stance against Saskatchewan’s oilsands.

What Mr. Mulcair fails to realize is that responsible resource develop-ment benefits the entire country. Instead, Mr. Mulcair wrongly blames the western Canadian oilsands for the rising dollar and challenges in Canada’s manufacturing sector. The NDP would much prefer imposing a carbon tax that would decimate our agriculture and resource sectors. Mr. Mulcair is wrong and should explain himself.

Responsible resource develop-ment is vital to our national economy during the global financial storm. The oilsands create billions of dollars in economic growth and hundreds of thousands of high quality jobs throughout the country, from our service to manufacturing sectors.

A recent Canadian Energy Research Institute study showed that the oil-sands will create $63 billion in eco-nomic spinoffs and 65,000 jobs in Ontario alone over 25 years, along with more economic benefits for British Columbia and Quebec.

While the NDP would rather pit the West against the East, our govern-ment is working on behalf of all Canadians. While the NDP continues their war on the oilsands and our economy, our government will con-tinue to focus on jobs and economic growth. That’s why we will continue to support the responsible develop-ment of the oilsands — an industry that, directly and indirectly, employs hundreds of thousands of Canadians across the country.

It’s obvious that the NDP doesn’t understand the needs of western Canadians. After all, how could they? They were widely rejected in the last election when western Canadians sent a strong, stable, national, major-ity Conservative government to rep-resent them in Ottawa. Saskatche-wanians can be assured that, unlike the NDP, their Conservative mem-bers of Parliament will remain focused on creating jobs, driving economic growth and long-term prosperity.

He couldn’t leave camp feeling that angry. Ten-year-old Mickey was at the bottom of

every prank, but I had a feeling some-thing troubled him.

Camp leaders reported he was par-ticularly bad to manage during the morning swim. A trouble maker? Or was it fear?

On the last morning the whole camp gathered to play in the water.

Mickey fell into deep conversation with his new best friend. Finally they selected life preservers and asked permission to take a canoe. They got the canoe to the water’s edge, got in and started to move along the edge of the swimming area. That’s when my best leader, for reasons unknown, started to rock the canoe and flipped it. The two boys were furious. Mickey in particular was so angry I thought he was going to explode.

I left the errant leader to try to do damage control, to no avail.

Slowly I walked over, as if I hadn’t seen a thing, and wondered i f Mickey might take me for a paddle. I explained that I couldn’t swim and was afraid of the water, but I wanted one boat ride before I left.

“I noticed when you were in the boat with Jimmy you sat in the rear. You must know something about paddling.”

He was startled enough to agree to take me “just a little way.”

What a sight. My end of the canoe rode so low he could hardly reach the water with his paddle, but he worked hard.

Soon the dinner bell called us back to shore. With the landing I told him to head for the dining room. When I sat to eat a few minutes later, a raspy voice from the other end of the table proclaimed, “I think fat people are wonderful.”

Obviously Mickey had recovered.

time and subsequently paid a smok-er’s premium.

In March, having quit smoking four years ago, I decided to apply for non-smoker rates on the above-men-tioned policy. I received a letter and an application for policy change form.…

The questions were regarding many things such as other life insur-ance pending, tobacco use, use of illicit drugs, use of alcohol, my citi-zenship, was I an aircraft pilot, did I participate in any hazardous activity, was I a convicted criminal, my driv-er’s licence number, any charges for DUI and a complete medical history listing doctors, clinics and hospitals. The final portion wanted a signed authorization to obtain medical and financial information.

I reviewed the questions and answered those that I thought had relevance to the question of smoker versus non-smoker.

I received another letter that stated they could not continue to process my request until I completed and returned the original application. In addition, they stated that to qualify for non-smoker rates, they must con-tinue to have the same mortality risk to the company as they did when the policy was issued.

“If it’s found that the client is not the same mortality risk as they were when they initially applied, we would simply decline the request ... and cli-ent would continue to pay the premi-ums based on the smoker rates.”

Realizing that I have nearly 20 years added to mortality risk and being in my mid-60s with some health prob-lems, I believe I know the company’s answer. The policy will require dou-ble the amount of premiums in three years with the policy expiring at age 75. I cancelled the policy. My wife had the same problem with Manulife and we cancelled her policy.

In summation, I would urge every-one who has an insurance policy of 10 years or greater to review it to ensure it is still applicable to your situation. Be sure to check for termi-nal date, premium schedule and method of payout. If you are satisfied, very good. If not, take some action.

SAVE TAX CREDIT

To the Editor:

The government’s decision to drop the Film Employment Tax Credit flies in the face of common sense.

Rather than leading to savings, it will result in a net loss of revenue for Saskatchewan and will destroy the film industry, an industry that just a couple years ago premier (Brad) Wall

was eager to embrace by appearing in an episode of Corner Gas. Without the Film Tax Credit, Corner Gas would never have happened in Sas-katchewan, nor would any of the other projects that have generated more than $600 million in spending in Saskatchewan since the inception of the program.

The government is likely hoping most people in the province don’t know how the program works. The tax credit is a rebate provided on some of the labour costs and the rebates don’t happen until after pro-duction is completed. The revenues generated by film production far sur-pass what the government offers in tax credits, and almost all of that rev-enue comes from sources outside of Saskatchewan.

A great deal of economic activity in Saskatchewan receives similar sup-port from government incentive programs, including the potash, agri-

culture, and oil industries.Tax credits are an essential element

in attracting film production, and that’s why every province in Canada, many U.S. states and most European countries offer film tax credits, because they lead to a rise in general revenues and employment.

No tax credits equals no film pro-duction equals dropping revenues.

Film production brings in money from outside the province and pumps it into local businesses. It cre-ates jobs in the knowledge economy and with shows such as Corner Gas, Wapos Bay and The Englishman’s Boy, it brings Saskatchewan stories to the world.

As Brent Butt has asked, why would Saskatchewan want to be the only province in Canada that doesn’t have such a program?

A main player in the camelina industry is again reneging on con-tracts it signed with growers.

Great Plains — The Camelina Company has run into financial dif-ficulties preventing it from fully reimbursing producers for crop they contracted with the company in 2009 and 2010 and grew in 2010 and 2011.

Dan Gray, a farmer from Dewberry, Alta., is one grower awaiting pay-ment on the 140 acres of camelina he grew in 2011.

He received a cheque from the Cin-cinnati, Ohio, company for $7,296 in October 2011. A balance of $2,043 was supposed to be paid no later than Jan. 31, 2012, but the money has

not arrived.It is not a big dollar figure but the

experience has soured Gray on the highly touted new oilseed crop.

“I’d certainly caution anybody about growing it. It’s difficult to grow and then when you run into this, it makes it worse,” he said.

Great Plains president Sam Hut-tenbauer said his company has paid growers a minimum of 80 percent of what they were due for crop grown in 2010 and 2011, an amount totalling about $4 million.

Trying to get a new crop off the ground has proven more difficult than anticipated, especially given the tough economic environment in which the U.S. government keeps withholding the blender’s tax credit for biodiesel.

The troubles for Great Plains came to a head in the spring of 2011 when

the company was attempting to ship 130 rail cars of its Canadian camelina to a processor in Minnesota.

Record rains caused road bans and shut down some rail traffic. Great Plains couldn’t get a portion of the product it contracted to the facility in the agreed upon time frame. That reduced processing margins.

“We’ve been trying to organize a follow-up crush run but have been hindered in that,” said Huttenbauer.

He c l a i m s t h e c o m p a n y h a s arranged the necessary financing to pay growers the remaining 20 per-cent they are owed within the next 60 days.

Gray isn’t holding his breath. He has heard similar assurances before.

His annoyance with the company extends beyond the delayed pay-ment. He said camelina proved to be

a difficult crop to work with due to its tiny seed and straw that is as hard to deal with as flax straw.

But he was especially irritated when Great Plains hit him with 44 percent dockage on the 2,800 bush-els of camelina that he shipped to the company.

“I mean, it was weedy, but it wasn’t that weedy,” said Gray.

Even if he gets paid the remainder of what he is owed, it won’t cover the cost of production for growing the crop.

“I certainly will never grow it again. I know that much.”

Huttenbauer understands the grower frustration with the crop. It extends in part from a lack of experi-ence planting and harvesting the oilseed.

He said dockage is usually in the eight to 10 percent range but he has

seen some dirty crops that he sus-pects contained some material from the bottom of growers’ bins. If there is a dispute over dockage, the com-pany sends the sample to a lab for a second opinion.

Huttenbauer recognizes it has been a less than ideal launch for camelina in Canada.

“It is our promise to do better and to learn from this,” he said.

Huttenbauer has devoted eight years of his life to developing the crop, the last three years without compensation.

There have been challenges but also some rewards, such as seeing camelina power six months of com-mercial flights in Europe and watch-ing the crop survive a severe drought in Spain while other non-irrigated crops are withering and dying.

Grain farmers will see changes in how wheat and barley checkoffs are collected in Western Canada after Aug. 1.

However, the amount they pay to support wheat and barley research will remain the same.

Federal agriculture minister Gerry Ritz announced May 22 that the Alberta Barley Commission will begin administering a new genera-tion of wheat and barley checkoffs in Western Canada at the beginning of the 2012-13 crop year.

The checkoffs have historically been deducted from farmers’ grain cheques by the Canadian Wheat Board, but changes to the CWB made it necessary to come up with a new check-off collection system.

The new checkoffs, proposed at 48 cents per tonne for wheat and 56 cents per tonne on barley, will help pay for cereal grain research and the development of new wheat and bar-ley varieties.

Most of the money col lected through the checkoffs — 30 cents per tonne on wheat and 50 cents per tonne on barley — will continue to be delivered to the Western Grains

Research Foundation (WGRF).About three cents per tonne will be

used to cover administrative costs.The remainder, 15 cents a tonne on

wheat and three cents a tonne on barley, will pay for market develop-ment work, technical assistance and customer support functions now performed by the Canadian Malting Barley Technical Centre (CMBTC) and the Canadian International Grains Institute (CIGI).

“What we want to do is backstop the great work done by the Western Grains Research Foundation, by CIGI and by the Malt Barley Techni-cal Institute,” Ritz said.

Under the new check-off system, farmers will contribute roughly the same amount of money to the WGRF, CIGI and the CMBTC, Ritz said.

However, the new collection sys-tem will be more transparent and will show farmers exactly how much they are contributing to the three organi-zations.

Under Western Canada’s existing check-off arrangement, which will remain in place until July 31, farmers pay 30 cents per tonne on wheat, 50 cents per tonne on barley and an additional hidden fee that is deduct-ed from CWB pool accounts.

The new system will be a point-of-

sale levy that is deducted from farm-ers’ grain tickets at all licensed grain handling facilities.

The wheat and barley checkoffs will not be collected on imported grain, producer-to-producer sales and feed or exported grain that is not deliv-ered through a licensed grain han-dling facility.

The new wheat and barley check-offs were billed by Ritz as a interim measure that will remain in place for up to five years.

After that, the grain industry will be expected to develop, implement and administer a permanent check-off program.

At the core of the case last week w a s t h e f e d e ra l g ov e r n m e nt ’s appeal of a December judgment by Manitoba Federal Court judge Douglas Campbell that in refusing to hold a vote, Ritz had disregarded the “rule of law.”

Oberg said the evidence is clear.“What is at stake here is the govern-

ment following the rules, which it didn’t,” Oberg said in an interview after listening to more than four hours of lawyer arguments.

After last week’s court hearing, Ritz issued a statement noting that the legislation will take effect and that the process followed the law.

“We are confident that the court will see the merits of our case.”

At the end of the hearing, the three Federal Court of Appeal judges reserved their decision.

Their decision will not affect the validity of the monopoly’s elimina-tion on Aug. 1, and by historical prec-edent may not be delivered for

months.Federal justice department lawyer

Robert MacKinnon, in his argument about errors in the earlier Manitoba Federal Court ruling against Ritz, noted that despite normal court speed, Campbell had issued a 21 page decision a day after hearings ended in Winnipeg.

MacKinnon argued the clause only requires a farmer vote if specific grains were to be added to or sub-tracted from the single desk.

John Lorn MacDougall, the law-yer representing eight CWB direc-tors, including Oberg, who lost their jobs when the government replaced them with appointed directors argued that any sensible reading of the clause would suggest that ending the monopoly entirely would be covered by the require-ment that deleting specific grains from the single desk requires farm-er approval.

He told the appeal court judges that the challenge, supported by the Friends of the Canadian Wheat Board lobby group and the Council of Canadians, was not about the law abolishing the CWB monopoly.

“It is about the minister and how he acted,” said MacDougall.

A class action suit also exists that claims $17 billion in compensation for farmers, although it is years from conclusion, if it ever gets to court.

The federal government has indi-cated it will add more than $200 mil-lion to earlier estimates for agricul-tural spending, less than two months into the 2012-13 fiscal year.

The new spending plans tabled in Parliament include almost $27 mil-lion to fund the Canadian Grain Commission.

The government plans to increase CGC user fees, but until new legisla-tion is proposed and approved, the government picks up the difference between commission costs and rev-enues from fees that have been fro-zen for more than a decade.

The new spending also includes more than $12 million in additional funding for the Canadian Food Inspection Agency as well as more than $11 million being transferred from the Agriculture Canada budget for CFIA capital spending.

The new spending estimates also include a contingenc y fund of $110.8 million to cover potential obligations for natural disaster events that would be covered by AgriRecovery funding.

“This does not anticipate specific

events but flags that there are poten-tial obligations,” said Angela Mur-phy, director of Agriculture Canada’s finance and resource management division.

The new financial requests are included in supplementary spend-ing estimates tabled in Parliament by the government.

They cover spending that was not anticipated when the fiscal year spending plan was presented to Par-liament in March.

Several more updates will be pre-sented to Parliament during the year to reflect unexpected financial requirements.

The new spending includes $4.6 million to help the Port of Churchill adjust to changes that will flow from the end of the CWB monopoly.

As well, it includes the transfer of $12.7 million from Agriculture Cana-da to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to fund programs such as traceability and plum pox virus con-trol and payment for food specialists in international trade missions.

The fund transfers also will be used to finance a CFIA pilot project to license importers who will imple-ment and police a food safety regime for imported food.

The issue for Alberta farmer Allen Oberg was simple as Conservative legislation to end the CWB monopoly moved to the Federal Court of Appeal last week.

As he sat in the downtown Ottawa courtroom during the May 23 hear-ing, the issue was not the validity of federal legislation that will end the CWB single desk, although the for-mer CWB chair opposes that move.

The issue was whether agriculture minister Gerry Ritz violated “the rule of law” when he introduced the legis-lation last year without asking grain farmers if they wanted it to happen.

Clause 47.1 of the Canadian Wheat Board Act as amended in 1998 required that there be a farmer vote before any grains were added or sub-tracted from the CWB single desk.

Ritz did not hold a vote, insisting that the 2011 Conservative election win was the required vote, and he engineered legislation that will end the monopoly and the 47.1 obligation Aug. 1.

It was rainy this spring in east-cen-tral Saskatchewan, and farmers Francis Weber and Mike Humeny were a little edgy.

Getting the crop seeded wasn’t the problem — they’d get that done, one way or another.

But dodging the raindrops as they moved Prairie Belle, a combine that’s l iterally covered in histor y, 35 kilometres from Quill Lake to Wade-na wasn’t going to be easy.

“It’s the decals,” Weber said. “We don’t want to lose any of those.”

Twelve years ago, in January 2000, British Columbia producer Nick Par-sons drove the Prairie Belle, his Massey Ferguson 860, about 4,000 kilometres from Dawson Creek to Ottawa to draw attention to the agri-cultural crisis that had prairie farm-ers struggling to stay on the land.

“No matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t get a good crop and a good price at the same time,” Parsons said in a recent phone interview.

As he crossed Canada he gathered machinery dealership emblems, town insignias and mementos such as a picture of himself with then

prime minister Jean Chretien. The decals plastered to Prairie

Belle’s sides represented support: emotional, physical and financial. Weber and Humeny weren’t about to let any of them be washed away.

Patience paid off, and on a sunny afternoon earlier this month, Weber, a member of the Wadena and Dis-trict Museum board, wheeled Prairie Belle onto the parking lot at the museum, where it will be welcomed as an important artifact in the farm machinery division.

Prairie Belle ended up in Saskatch-ewan after Humeny read a newspa-per story about Parsons in the spring of 2007.

“He didn’t need the combine for crusading anymore, and he wanted to donate it to a charitable organiza-tion.”

Humeny hoped the lucky recipient would be the Big Quill Community Growing Project, a quarter section of land in the Quill Lakes area set aside for an annual donation to the Cana-dian Foodgrains Bank.

“We represent five churches in the area,” said Humeny.

“Volunteers from each church and also people that may not be church goers get together to seed the land

and to swath and combine it.”The harvested crop is sold at a local

elevator, and the money goes directly to the foodgrains bank, which dis-tributes it where it is most needed.

The Big Quill project has contrib-uted $196,000 to the foodgrains bank since its launch in 2006. Adding in the four to one contribution from the Canadian International Develop-ment Agency brings the total to more than $900,000.

“We wanted Prairie Belle for two reasons,” Humeny said. “All the work is done by local farmers. It’s easier for a volunteer to drive a combine than it is to come with their own combine, and number two, it would

be good publicity for the Big Quill Community Growing Project.”

Parsons said donating the combine to the Big Quill Project was an easy decision.

“I had little support when I left on my trip from B.C. because I was radi-cal,” he said. “As soon as I hit the Alberta border, there were people waiting … and the further I went and especially from L loydminster, through central Saskatchewan to Weyburn, the outpouring of support was very emotional .… They just wanted to donate and to help. They believed I was helping them.”

Prairie Belle arrived in Quill Lake in July 2007 to lead a parade down Main

Street with Parsons at the wheel. It’s been part of the foodgrains harvest ever since. However, as swaths grew to 30 and 36 feet wide, organizers decided to retire the 31-year-old combine to the museum at Wadena.

“We wanted to give it a good home in a place where everyone could enjoy it,” said Humeny.

Parsons, who’s stayed in touch with Humeny, approved of the choice and said he’ll be accepting an invitation to come and drive Prairie Belle in this summer’s celebration marking Wadena’s 100th anniversary.

Canadian Federation of Agricul-ture president Ron Bonnett had his doubts when he heard a United

Nations food security advocate com-plain about Canadian food insecuri-ty in the midst of plenty.

The northwestern Ontario cattle farmer was not challenging the argu-ment that many Canadians lack access to affordable food.

He was challenging the conclusion that part of the problem is an export and large farm-oriented agriculture policy that should be re-engineered to promote local food and small farms.

“I think he was confusing agricul-ture policy with social policy,” Bon-nett said about Olivier De Schutter, the UN’s right to food rapporteur who has visited Canada and is now writing a report.

“To think that local food will solve the problem of food insecurity for the poor is confusing because most local food near cities actually goes into higher priced niche markets, so I don’t see that as a solution for food insecurity for the poor.”

Agriculture minister Gerry Ritz said De Schutter was following a political agenda rather than concentrating on developing countries where there are food shortages.

Ritz said the government recently launched a program in Saskatche-wan and British Columbia to brand Canadian product in stores. As well, a trade-oriented agriculture policy helps meet food needs around the world, he added.

“The single best way to make sure that families in Canada and around the world can access the food they need is to make sure our farmers remain successful,” he said.

“We are making sure that families in Canada and around the world can access the food they need by promot-ing free and unfettered trade.”

NDP agriculture critic Malcolm Allen said the UN report was an embarrassing condemnation of Canada’s lack of a national food strategy.

Liberal critic Frank Valeriote called it a scathing rebuke of Conservative failure to deal with the gap between rich and poor and the need to deal with food insecurity through a national policy that emphasizes local production.

Bill Jeffrey of the Centre for Science in the Public Interest argued that a national food policy should be writ-ten by experts without a conflict of interest.

He suggested farmers and agri-food companies with a stake in export market sales have a conflict of interest in designing a policy for domestic affordable consumption.

Bonnett said that is a bad idea.“I would get very worried if we

are producing a food policy by people with no skin in the game,” he said.

“It has to have a broad representa-tion, but you can’t develop a food policy that doesn’t factor farmers into it.”

An additional 2,000 acres have been contracted for fry processing p o t at o e s i n A l b e r t a f o l l ow i n g increased demand from processors, says the executive director of Potato Growers of Alberta.

The additional acres will bring pro-duction up to 40,000 for 2012, which Edzo Kok said is a record.

Total acreage in the province, when seed and fresh potatoes are included, will be closing in on the high of 54,000 acres achieved in the mid 2000s.

“Which is quite positive, consider-ing the world economic situation and the fact that the potato industry has been fairly flat the last few years,” said Kok.

“To still be experiencing growth in our province is very encouraging.”

Alberta producers har vested 50,500 acres of potatoes last year, Kok said, but growth in the seed and fresh sectors has been static. The new acres meet a demand for exports to the United States, he added.

“The U.S. continues to be our big-gest customer and the U.S. is proba-

bly one of the bigger exporters in the global french fry trade,” he said.

“As they export more, they then look to Canada to backfill that vol-ume into their markets, so we rely fairly heavily on the U.S. market and their export business and they’re doing quite well.... With their growth comes our growth.”

Kok said much of last year’s grow-ing season was ideal, but a wet and cool spring meant producers got off to a late start.

This year, growers were able to get to work as early as the first week of

April. Planting was completed by the second week of May and growers are 10 days ahead of a normal schedule, said Kok.

“We’re very optimistic this year,” he said.

“We’re off to a very good start and if we could just get average growing conditions going forward, there’s no reason why we won’t pull off a very good crop.”

Some seed samples in the province have tested positive for late blight, which in 2010 spread from home gardens into commercial crops.

Increased monitoring and surveil-lance for late blight kept the disease under control last year, but the risk remains, said Robert Spencer, a com-mercial horticulture specialist with Alberta Agriculture. The disease comes from planting infected tubers and spreads by wind and water-borne spores.

“Vigilance is all about watching, but it’s also about taking preventive steps prior to a threat being deter-mined,” he said.

Spencer encourages producers to be proactive by scouting fields and

making a fungicide application if necessary.

Lawrence Kawchuk of Agriculture Canada in Lethbridge will provide testing for the disease and is re-searching resistance and fungicide chemistry.

“We’re fortunate that due to our geographic location and our climate, we don’t have a lot of disease and pest pressure,” said Kok.

“The bit that we do have, the guys are very conscientious and do what they have to to make sure that they keep the crop healthy.”

PARIS, France (Reuters) — Mem-bers of the World Organization for Animal Health have agreed on cattle breeding rules, the group’s first ever deal on livestock production.

The deal, approved by OIE’s 178 members apart from South Africa, includes measures such as ensur-ing beef cattle’s health, breeding environment and genetic selection, director general Bernard Vallat said.

However, a draft of the deal showed that terms remained vague and data such as minimum-maximum tem-perature levels, hours of light animals needed and soil quality were either removed or not included.

Members also left aside additives such as hormones or antibiotics, a question that would have been too divisive.

In 1988, the European Union banned all imports of beef from cattle treated with growth hormones, which prompted U.S. and Canadian sanctions of $125 million a year on European products.

Vallat said the rules would be harder to implement in intensive breeding, which is widespread in the United States and Europe. Animals are confined, have little or no access to pasture and are fed by trough.

The OIE, which is recognized as a reference organization by the World Trade Organization, had tried to seal a deal on livestock production rules last year for chickens, but divergences were too wide on issues such as the number of animals per sq. metre and food quality.

OIE countries commit to apply the rules, but the organization cannot force the implementation nor sanc-tion laggards.

WINNIPEG (Reuters) — A U.S. animal rights group hopes to save a herd of genetically modified pigs from early deaths after funding dried up for a Canadian research project.

Possible euthanization of the nine Enviropigs has drawn opposition from Farm Sanctuary, a New York state group that places abused ani-mals in new homes.

The animals are descendants of hogs first bred 13 years ago by the University of Guelph to lessen the environmental impact of pig waste.

“For the same reason, the univer-sity wouldn’t be euthanizing healthy puppies or kittens, they shouldn’t be

killing these pigs,” said Bruce Fried-rich, a senior official with Farm Sanctuary.

“They have a moral responsibility to see that these animals lead out their lives being pigs.”

The Enviropig is one of a handful of research projects around the world that could engineer the first GM ani-mal for human consumption.

However, GM plants and animals face tough scrutiny from regulators, with some consumers leery about unproven long-term health effects.

Trade repercussions could be con-siderable if GM meat entered the food supply chain without govern-ment approval. Canada is the world’s

third largest pork exporter.“It would represent an unaccept-

able and irresponsible risk for the university to allow these transgenic animals to be under anyone else’s control ... with the possibility that they could intermix with either feral or domesticated pigs, or even end up in the human food chain by accident,” said University of Guelph spokesperson Lori Bona Hunt.

The university may not euthanize the pigs if it can find a new partner in the Enviropig project, said Bona Hunt.

An Ontario hog farmer group pulled its funding in March.

If it does kill the pigs, the university

has said it would put their genetic material in cold storage and continue research by analyzing data it has already collected.

Enviropig’s researchers applied several years ago for approval for human food consumption from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Health Canada. Those regula-tors have not announced decisions.

Bona Hunt said finding new homes for GM pigs would violate Canadian government policies.

With the university not budging, the next step for Farm Sanctuary is to mobilize a campaign of e-mails and letters urging Guelph to save the pigs, Friedrich said.

The group says it has 250,000 paid members and supporters in North America.

“These pigs have been born into Guelph’s research labs and have probably not yet had the chance to take mud baths and bask in the sun and root in the soil, and be pigs,” he said.

“Guelph owes them that.”Environmentalists have cheered

the setback for the Enviropig project and are also closely watching appli-cations by AquaBounty Technolo-gies Inc.’s GM Atlantic salmon, which contain a gene from another fish spe-cies, the Chinook salmon, to help it grow twice as fast as normal.

Grocery shoppers across Canada are frequently appalled by the cost of raspberries, asparagus, nectar-ines and other items in the produce section, but a United States Depart-ment of Agriculture economist has determined that fruits and vegeta-bles aren’t more expensive than less healthy food, such as potato chips.

Andrea Carlson, a food economist with the USDA Economic Research Service in Washington, D.C., said it’s commonly reported that price is an obstacle to healthy eating. But after studying the matter with her USDA colleague, Elizabeth Frazao, Carlson concluded the idea that healthy food costs more is based on faulty analysis.

Traditionally, economists have compared the cost of food per calo-rie, which led to the conclusion that carrots were more expensive than french fries. Carlson and Frazao found that carrots are cheaper than fries if you compare the cost per portion size.

“The key message here is that the metric really changes the story,” said Carlson, who co-authored the report, Are Healthy Foods Really More Expensive? It Depends on How You Measure the Price, which was released in May.

In the study, the economists eval-uated the cost of 4,439 foods using three separate methods: price per 100 calories, price per 100 edible grams and cost per portion.

Based on average prices across the U.S., they ranked the cost of those food items from one to 4,439, with one being the cheapest.

Using carrots versus french fries as an example, carrots ranked 3,658 using the measuring stick of price per 100 calories.

Fries, in comparison, were much cheaper per calorie, and french fries ranked 501 out of the 4,439 foods.

Yet, using price per portion size, the situation was reversed. Carrots ranked 560 out of 4,439 food and

french fries ranked 1,552.“When you measure carrots,

they’re going to look very expensive because they don’t have many calo-ries,” Carlson said.

But there aren’t many grams in a recommended portion of carrots, so the cost per portion is relatively cheap.

Overall, Carlson found that food

low in calories for a given weight, such as vegetables, appear to be more costly when the price is mea-sured per calories. However, when measured on the basis of edible weight or average portion size, veg-etables, fruit, dairy products and grains are less expensive than pro-cessed food with excess sugar, fat and sodium.

Carlson said the findings are sig-nificant because consumers often b a l k at b u y i n g h e a l t hy f o o d , because many believe food like extra lean ground beef or canta-loupes are too pricey.

“Change is hard and we always look for excuses,” she said.

FOOD COSTS EXPLOREDIn a study released in May, U.S. Department of Agriculture economists ranked the cost of 4,439 foods based on the cost per 100 calories, cost per 100 edible grams and cost per portion. They determined that unhealthy foods are cheap, using the cost per calorie calculation. But when researchers looked at the cost per edible grams, vegetables, fruits and dairy products were relatively cheaper than less healthy foods. For example, they found:

SMOKY LAKE, Alta. — Angela and Robert Semeniuk believe it’s impor-tant to promote their area of north-eastern Alberta. That’s one reason why they let their names stand in the Outstanding Young Farmers’ pro-gram.

The Smoky Lake area has great lakes, camping and golf courses and is close to the Iron Horse trail, an old railway line used for ATV riding, snowmobiling, hiking and horse-back riding.

“People need to realize there is so much to offer,” said Angela.

The small town of Smoky Lake, cel-ebrating its 50th anniversary this year, is even attracting workers from Fort McMurray who want to live in a small town.

“Our community is starting to thrive,” said Angela, whose parents moved to Smoky Lake when she was in Grade 10.

As Alberta’s Outstanding Young Farmers winners, the couple hopes more people will visit their corner of the province.

Robert always knew he wanted to stay in Smoky Lake and farm. After high school, he bought land and cattle and took over some of the land his parents had been renting. It was also Semeniuk’s first foray into custom work.

Robert and his father bought a sprayer and started spraying as a suc-

cessful farm diversification and income generator. They tried custom grain hauling, but found it too time consuming. They added a custom seeding business as a way to keep up with the latest seeding systems and technology.

Four years ago, they got into the fertilizer floating business. The first year, they spread fertilizer on 19,000 acres and this year hope to custom spread fertilizer on 35,000 acres.

“I think it’s been very successful,” said Angela.

“It’s allowed us to grow.”

Like other parts of the Prairies, it’s not easy buying land in competitive agriculture areas. Instead, the couple has chosen to rent land and focus on their custom work.

In 2006, they sold the cattle to focus on grain.

“I hated them,” said Robert. “I bought my dad’s cattle so I could sell them. To look after them properly, you have to have more passion than most.”

Robert’s passion is grain. Each year, the family plans for an increase in production.

Recently, they hired an agronomist to scout the fields and make agro-nomic recommendations, keep track of the weeds and do more in-depth record keeping.

The couple also created a “field of d re a m s” h o m e q u a r t e r. Eve r y expense is documented and at the end of the season, their return on investment is compared to the other fields with the same crop.

As a certified management accoun-tant, Angela is continually looking at the numbers to make sure every decision works financially.

“We do a lot of record keeping and keeping track of numbers. We know what our costs are and if we’re getting a benefit,” said Robert.

“We’re running it like a business. Nothing is just in our heads. We have hard data,” he said.

Part of the couple’s focus comes from their Canadian Total Excel-lence in Agricultural Management

course at the George Morris Cen-tre, in Guelph, Ont., an intensive agricultural education program designed to help farmers seize the changes in modern agriculture.

Through the program, the couple learned a lot about themselves and how they work or don’t work with their partners and staff.

“It helps you deal with other per-sonalities,” said Robert.

It was through that program the couple set farm goals, created vision and mission statements and set stra-tegic and capital plans to keep them focused.

Until three years ago, Angela worked off the farm for the Smoky Lake County as a municipal accoun-tant. The custom floating business allowed Angela to work full-time on the farm.

With two children, Gabrielle, 6, and Tristan, 4, the couple is involved in the local community. For 13 years, Angela has served on the Commu-nity Adult Learning Council.

Many of her volunteer hours now focus on the children’s activities.

The couple helped raise money and build a community playground behind the school.

They also help out with the Ukrai-nian dance club.

“So many organizations need vol-unteers,” she said.

In November, the couple will travel to the national Outstanding Young Farmers event in Prince Edward Island.

Robert and Angela Semeniuk, Alberta’s Outstanding Young Farmers hope to expand their production each year.

“That it might be more expensive is a convenient excuse.”

Carlson hopes nutritionists will use the information in her report to change the public’s perspective on the cost of healthy food.

Consumers can use the report to change their shopping approach, Carlson said. Instead of comparing the price of one item to another, they should consider the number of serv-ings.

“What they (consumers) can do is think about this big bag of lettuce and how many portions can I get out of it? Maybe it’s not as expensive as I thought it was.”

Although she hadn’t read the entire USDA report, Joyce Slater, assistant professor in the department of human nutritional sciences at the University of Manitoba, isn’t con-vinced the findings are significant.

Certainly, the cost of food influ-ences what people choose to eat, but it’s not the most important factor, she said.

“What people always devolve down to are the fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are expensive.”

Since the U.S. government subsi-dizes the production of corn and soybeans, processed food is going to be artificially cheaper than fresh food, Slater said.

As well, it’s been frequently written that modern two-income families don’t have time to prepare healthy food. Convenience food, which may be unhealthy processed food, has become more popular with con-sumers.

Nonetheless, the primary reason why parents and children eat frozen pepperoni pizza instead of home-made borscht is that many adults no longer have the skills to make healthy meals for their families, Slater said.

“There has been a de-skilling of the population … with respect to cook-ing, food-planning … and knowing how to buy foods,” said Slater, who is studying the importance of home economics in the Canadian school curriculum.

Carlson agreed there are other fac-tors, besides price, which prevent people from making healthy choices.

Taste, convenience and the avail-ability of quality food may all be more important than price, she said.

“If they don’t like broccoli they’re not going to eat broccoli.”

Taste preference aside, consumers can buy and eat vegetables they do like, Carlson said.

People need to realize that fruits and vegetables represent a sizable chunk of the monthly food budget. Consum-ers spend 20 to 25 per cent of their grocery budget on produce, but they should spend significantly more.

“The thing we find in the United States is that people don’t allocate enough (of their food budget) for fruits and vegetables,” Carlson said. “We estimate for a healthy diet about 40 percent of the food budget should go towards fruits and vegetables.”

Got a new video game. Put it in the PlayStation game hole. (Didn’t Homer Simpson call

his garage a car hole?) A message appears:

The system software of your PS3 system is version 3.60. To start, you must update to version 3.70 or later. Do you want to update now?

Well, not really, but since the game will be unplayable if I don’t, it might be wise to click yes.

Then comes a wall of text that only the insane would read, let alone understand. It’s not unlike Apple’s wall of text that arrives every other time I try to use iTunes. Goody, a new version – 10.5.2.3.7.b.

In Sony’s case, there’s something about your first-born being the chat-tel of Sony from now to the end of days. The upshot is, Sony (Apple) is not responsible for anything, at any time, anywhere, and they have the lawyers to prove it.

All right then. Downloading new system software, a 45 minute exercise, check; downloading game data and patches, a mere three minutes, check; can’t proceed until signed into PS network, check; downloading 676MB game add-on, 64 minutes, check.

And now it might be time to actually fire up the game. So here goes.

The TV screen goes black. The TV screen stays black. A red light is blink-ing on the PlayStation. Multiple efforts fail to turn the red light into a happy green light. Thirty seconds worth of research on the worldwide web reveal this syndrome to be the blinking red light of death (BRLOD), not to be confused with the blinking yellow light of death (BYLOD). Either way, red or yellow, the prognosis is as follows: Your game console is now a doorstop.

Super. And there’s a brand new game disc trapped inside, alone and frightened. Surgery will be required. Removal of seven screws, including one tamper-proof screw exposes the innards. Disconnecting two cables allows the removal of the Blu-ray drive. Removal of seven more screws allows the drive’s innards to be exposed. And there is the disc.

What to do? I decide to exchange the game for the Xbox version of the same game, proving the maxim, if one gaming system is good, two must be twice as good. Of course, the disc is no longer new and can only be traded in, not exchanged.

Back at home base, I insert the new disc into the Xbox, which appears to be alive and well. No blinking red lights, no funny noises. What’s this? A message appears:

A system update is available from Xbox Live. Do you want to apply the update now?

BY RON FRIESENFREELANCE WRITER

A simple cairn in a small park near downtown Winnipeg marks the birthplace of agriculture in Western Canada 200 years ago.

Near this spot on Oct. 7, 1812, Miles Macdonell, governor of the newly formed territory of Assiniboia, helped plant a bushel and a half of wheat he had brought from his native Scotland, according to a plaque on the cairn.

It was winter wheat and unsuited to the growing conditions of the new land. No one knows how the crop fared the following spring, but it was, officially, the first wheat sown in Western Canada.

And it coincided with the establish-ment of the Selkirk settlement, “the first European agricultural colony in the western interior of North Ameri-ca,” the plaque reads.

It’s a long way from that bushel and a half of wheat to today’s multibil-lion-dollar agricultural industry on the Prairies.

But the significance of that first attempt at growing crops in the West cannot be overstated, says Harry Duckworth, past-president of the Manitoba Historical Society.

“The settlers … proved that a farm economy, which can support a large population, was possible in what is now the Canadian West,” Duckworth said in a recent address to com-memorate the Selkirk settlement’s bicentenary.

Sheer survival was the first chal-lenge for Scottish Highlanders brought over by Thomas Douglas, Fifth Earl of Selkirk, between 1812 and 1815.

Selkirk had purchased 300,500 sq. kilometres of land, named Assiniboia, in 1811 from the Hudson’s Bay Com-pany to resettle tenant farmers expelled by landlords back home.

Two previous colonization efforts by Selkirk had produced mixed results. A project in Prince Edward

Island in 1803 was successful, but another the following year in Upper Canada was less so.

But the Assiniboia project faced the toughest odds.

An advance party commanded by Macdonell arrived in Assiniboia in September 1812 only a month before the first party of settlers did. Little was done to prepare the area for the set-tlers, who ended up spending their first winter at Pembina.

The following summer, the settlers set to work breaking land, planting crops and erecting buildings. Anoth-er group of settlers arrived that year, followed by a third in 1814.

The colony achieved some self-sufficiency in 1814 from hunting and the long narrow farm lots fronting the west side of the Red River near the current-day intersection of Main Street and Portage Avenue.

A fourth group arrived in 1815, increasing the colony’s population to about 50 families.

But despite help from sympathetic aboriginals, the settlers were intimi-dated by hostile Metis and the rival North West Company, whose busi-ness felt threatened when Macdon-nell banned exports of pemmican, the high-calorie food on which the fur trade canoe brigades depended, to feed his people.

Many settlers were driven out but against all odds, the colony reorga-nized, despite the 1816 massacre at Seven Oaks north of the settlement in which the new governor Robert Semple and 20 others were killed.

Today, some 15,000 Manitobans count themselves direct descen-dants of the original Selkirk settlers.

One of them is Bill Matheson, whose great-great-great-great grand-father Alexander Matheson arrived with his family and widowed mother in 1815.

Matheson says Selkirk, during his sole visit to the colony in 1817, grant-ed the remaining settlers, including his ancestor, clear title to the land because they had stuck it out.

The Selkirk settlers’ main contribu-tion to Manitoba agriculture was a beachhead for future far ming through the lessons they learned, says Matheson, who farms near Stonewall northwest of Winnipeg.

“They made it easier for the people who followed them. They learned what worked and what didn’t work,” he says.

While the first settlers were not particularly successful, they set the stage for others to follow, says Jack Bumsted, a retired University of Manitoba history professor who has written a biography of Lord Selkirk.

Agriculture gradually expanded as others began farming the rich soil.

By the 1830s and 1840s, farms were springing up along the Red and Assiniboine rivers, gradually spread-ing to other parts of what would eventually become Canada’s fifth province.

“The settlement would become quite successful,” says Bumsted. “And not only successful but multi-cultural, multilingual and multi-confessional, which is not bad.”

Q: I am writing this letter in regard to a health problem I have been

dealing with the last two years. I have had MRI and CT scans.

Doctors are looking for a trapped gallstone. I have always had symp-toms of bad heartburn and flatu-lence.

I had my gallbladder removed more than 20 years ago. My symp-toms seem to be getting worse. To eat or drink anything, I end up gassed up and bloating, with a bad taste in my mouth.

It gnaws at me in my stomach when it’s empty and is worse after eating. Within 30 to 45 minutes after eating, I will pay for it. The belching is strong. I have cut back on my meals, and not eating does help a bit.

I drink a lot of water and take a lot of acid reducers for relief. The bloat-ing is so uncomfortable. I don’t lose a pound.

I am scheduled for a colonoscopy and an EGD. Should I be concerned and let the doctor know it is getting worse?

A: A person should always let their doctor know if the symp-

toms are getting worse.Postcholecystectomy syndrome is

the medical phrase for the presence of symptoms after cholecystectomy or gallbladder removal. These symp-toms can represent either the con-tinuation of symptoms thought to be caused by the gallbladder or the development of new symptoms nor-mally attributed to gallbladder dis-ease or gallstones.

It is possible that your original symptoms may not have been from the gallbladder, and so its removal did not help resolve the problem.

However, PCS also includes the development of new symptoms, which are due to your lack of a gall-

bladder and the inability to store bile.Bile is an emulsifier created in the

liver, which helps break down fats, making them easier to absorb into the bloodstream.

Two types of problems may arise due to the lack of this reservoir. The first is continuously increased bile flow into the upper gastrointestinal tract, which may lead to oesophagitis and gastritis.

The second is related to the lower part of the bowels, giving the sufferer diarrhea, bloating due to gas and colicky lower abdominal pains. PCS affects about 10 to 15 percent of patients who have had previous gall-bladder surgery.

Has your doctor discussed a gall-bladder diet with you? You may need

to cut back on fatty foods and dairy products and add more fibre. The diet includes fresh fruits and vegeta-bles, whole grains (whole-wheat bread, brown rice, oats, bran cereal), lean meat, poultry and fish and low-fat and limited amounts of dairy products. There are also some bile salt supplements available that can mimic the action of bile.

The symptoms could also be due to a duodenal or gastric ulcer, so you should be tested for this. It is unlikely that you have a gallstone stuck in the bile ducts, because it would have been found by now, and you would have a different kind of pain or possibly jaundice.

Pizza yeast is a new product specifically designed for mak-ing homemade pizza dough.

A reader wanted to know if she could use pizza yeast in her bread maker recipes and if it is considered fast rising or traditional yeast.

I wondered why we need another type of yeast but my opinion has changed. It mixes up quickly, with a little kneading and is easy to handle.

With traditional or quick rise bread yeast the pizza dough is hard to press or roll out because it tends to spring back. With the pizza yeast, the dough is ready to use once kneaded because it doesn’t have to rise and is easy to roll out or press into shape.

Pizza yeast is not considered fast rising or traditional and is different from both because it contains dough relaxers. For this reason, it is not rec-ommended for use in bread or bun recipes.

A dough relaxer is a combination of all-natural ingredients that slightly dis-ables the gluten protein in wheat flour. Yeast dough with a relaxer rises slower and has less spring back when being rolled. The dough will still have good rise in the oven when it begins to bake.

BASIC PIZZA DOUGH

Makes one 12 inch (30.5 cm) regu-lar crust pizza or two thin crust pizzas.

1 3/4-2 1/4 c. all- 425-560 mL purpose flour 2 1/4 tsp. Fleischmann’s Pizza 11 mL Crust Yeast 1 1/2 tsp. sugar 7 mL 3/4 tsp. salt 4 mL 2/3 c. warm water 150 mL 120-130 F (49-55 C) (water should feel very

warm to the touch) 3 tbsp. oil 45 mL

Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C).Combine one cup (250 ml) flour,

undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a

large bowl. Add warm water and oil. Mix until well blended, about one minute. Gradually add enough remain-ing flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky. Knead on a floured surface, add-ing additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic, about four min-utes. Pat dough with floured hands to fill greased pizza pan or baking sheet.

An option is to roll dough on a floured counter into a 12-inch (30.5 cm) circle, then place on a greased pan. Form a rim by pinching the edge of the dough.

BASIC PIZZA

1 recipe of the basic pizza dough

1/2-1 c. pizza sauce 125-250 mL meat, cheese, vegetable

and fruit toppings as desired

1–2 c. shredded 250-500 mL mozzarella cheese

Prepare the dough and place in the pizza pan. Spread with pizza sauce. Top with desired toppings and sprin-kle with cheese. Bake on lowest oven rack for 12 to 15 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and crust is browned.

CHEESE-FILLED CRUST

For a cheese filled crust use: 4 sticks mozzarella 21 g each string cheese

Press or roll the dough so it lays

about one inch (2 cm) past the edge of the pan. Before topping the dough with sauce, add the cheese to the crust by pulling or cutting each stick of string cheese into two pieces, lengthwise.

Lay each piece around the outer edge of the pizza dough. Bring edge of dough over cheese, pressing to encase the cheese in the dough. Add the pizza sauce and continue making the pizza.

VEGETABLE QUICHE PIZZA

1 recipe basic pizza dough 1 tbsp. oil 15 mL 2 c. thinly sliced 500 mL mushrooms 2 c fresh spinach, 500 mL coarsely chopped 1/4 c. diced roasted red 60 mL bell pepper

4 eggs, beaten 2 tbsp. heavy cream 30 mL 1 tsp. crushed basil 5 mL 1/4 tsp. salt 1 mL 1/4 tsp. fresh ground black 1 mL pepper 1 c. shredded 250 mL Swiss cheese 3 green onions, sliced

diagonally

Preheat oven to 400 F. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and saute for about five minutes or until tender. Stir in spinach, saute an additional 30 sec-onds and remove from heat.

Prepare the basic pizza dough. Working from centre to edges, press dough into and one inch (2 cm) up sides of a 12 to 14 inch (30.5 – 35.5 cm) greased deep-dish pizza pan, then set aside.

Combine eggs, cream, basil, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Stir in sautéed vegetables, roasted red bell pepper and Swiss cheese.

Pour into prepared crust, top with green onions.

Bake on lowest oven rack for 20 to 25 minutes, until eggs are set and crust is browned.

BLT GRILLED PIZZA

1 recipe basic pizza dough 1 c. mayonnaise 250 mL 2 tsp. Dijon mustard 10 mL 2 tsp. minced garlic 10 mL fresh ground black pepper 2 c. shredded 500 mL mozzarella cheese 16 strips bacon, cooked crisp 2 large tomatoes, thinly sliced or

seeded and chopped 1/2 c. shredded 125 mL Parmesan cheese 2 c. chopped lettuce 500 mL

Start charcoal fire or preheat gas grill to medium-high heat. Be sure the grill is clean. To prevent sticking, drizzle oil over paper towel and wipe over grates.

Prepare basic pizza dough and divide into eight portions. Pat or roll dough on a well-floured counter to about eight-inch (20 cm) circles.

Brush both sides of crust with oil. Using hands, lift each crust careful-ly and place on grill. Cook for about four minutes until bottom is lightly browned and top looks set.

Using long handled tongs, remove crust from grill, grilled side up, to a

platter or baking sheet.Combine mayonnaise, mustard,

garlic and black pepper. Spread light-ly over crust. Crumble two strips of bacon and sprinkle over crust. Top with about ¼ cup (60 mL) mozzarella cheese, a few tomato slices and one tablespoon (15 mL) Parmesan cheese. Repeat with remaining pizzas.

Carefully slide each pizza onto the grill. Cook an additional four minutes until bottom of crust is browned and cheese is melted. Remove from heat and sprinkle with lettuce. Serve imme-diately.

Dough may be made up to 24 hours in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator. Punch down and roll out just before grilling.

Another option is to grill one side of the pizza crust. Cool, tightly wrap and refrigerate until serving time. On grilled side, add desired toppings and finish grilling on pre-heated grill. Makes eight eight-inch (20 cm) pizzas.

Now heading into its fi fth year, Ag Innovations is rapidly becoming an pivotal part of Agri-Trade. Each year, more applications come in and the fi eld of endeavor broadens.

Innovations in agriculture are generally driven by need; either to improve growing conditions, reduce time and work or bring costs down and improve margins on crops. Specialists in agriculture continually seek opportunities to improve products and reduce waste. Innovators thrive on the quest to perfect machines, systems and techniques.

Th e Ag Innovations program is serious business. It’s not a beauty pageant or popularity contest. Innovators know their concept is going to be seen by everyone who visits Agri-Trade and most of those have discerning minds when it comes to change and improvement.

Further, the judging panel that makes the fi nal selection and names each year’s winners is made by hands-on-expert volunteer farmers who actually use the types of tools and processes that innovators bring to the show. Th e judging panel is chosen based in the types of innovations that are entered, to ensure each entry is scrutinized by a knowledgeable examiner.

And innovators, particularly fi nalists, that aren’t successful, further refi ne their entry in subsequent years, in the hope of being able to attach the coveted Ag Innovations Winner logo to their product and marketing materials.

As registrations by exhibitors start pouring in to Agri-Trade, applications for next year’s Ag Innovations program are being developed. Watch for the 2012 Agri-Trade Show Guide for a glimpse of agriculture’s growing future.

HOW IS AN AG INNOVATION

WINNER ESTABLISHED ? The judging process is very

sophisticated and incorporates an effi cient and focused matrix system that weighs a number of important questions applied to each entrant.

A team of volunteer judges enter qualifi cation numbers from 1-10 (ten being highest) for each entry.

The fi nal judging team made up of fi ve area farmers is quite unique. Each judging team member brings a specifi c expertise from their particular fi eld of agricultural endeavor.

Applicants are short listed on the basis of their importance for practical agricultural applications, advantages in work performance relating to work quality and reliability.

Ballots are registered and the judging team who are not aware of the successful six winners, wait until the results are computed and announced at the annual Agri-Trade V.I.P. luncheon which traditionally takes place on the opening day of the event.

To qualify for an Ag Innovation award in this fi nal phase, the actual product or service must be displayed at the show. To this end, a separate panel actually visits each entry exhibit on the morning of the opening day of the show as the fi nal act in the judging process.

A comprehensive display package recognizing the Agri-Trade Ag Innovation fi nalists and winners is placed in each exhibit area. This promotes each participant’s status with the award process and draws public attention to the participants in the remaining days of the show.


BY JEFFREY CARTERFREELANCE WRITER

LEAMINGTON, Ont. — A report detailing contaminated waterways in southwestern Ontario has the pro-

vincial government and the prov-ince’s greenhouse industry doing the quick step.

Greenhouses growers could be on the hook for millions of dollars to address the issue.

Two streams near Leamington into which they have been discharging waste water for years have been labelled as “the most polluted in Ontario” for nitrate and phosphorus.

“Sturgeon Creek has 20 times the

level of nitrate, 10 times the level of potassium and 38 times the level of phosphorus found on average in comparable neighbouring water courses,” said an environment minis-try report.

High levels of copper have also been detected in the waterways, which lead to Lake Erie’s environmentally sensi-tive western basin. Copper is of par-ticularly concern because of its toxici-ty to aquatic fauna.

The problem could have been pre-vented.

Greenhouse operators should have been issued Environmental Appli-ance Approvals from the environment minister under the Ontario Water Resource Act. These would have required regular sampling reports.

George Gilvesy, general manager of Ontario Vegetable Greenhouse Growers, said greenhouse operators may have been unaware of their responsibility. No other sector in agriculture requires the environment ministry approval.

“The bottom line is there is a prob-lem and we’re committed to working with the (environment and agricul-ture ministries) to develop solutions,” he said.

The discussions have been ongoing for the past 18 months.

Meanwhile, some operators have taken steps to comply, according to Mark Cripps, press secretary to Ontario agriculture minister Ted McMeeken.

“They (the growers) are very inno-vative and like all farmers they want to be the best stewards of the land. They really want to improve the envi-ronment and correct any impact they’ve had,” Cripps said.

Gilvesy said the Ontario industry has spent more than $70 million in the past 10 to 15 years for water recy-cling systems, which is a partial solu-tion to the problem.

A private meeting between govern-ment and industry stakeholders was held in March. They developed an

“interim compliance agreement” as a stop-gap measure and a review was instigated to see if Ontario’s green-house sector can be regulated under the agriculture ministry’s Nutrient Management Act rather than the environment ministry’s Ontario Water Resource Act.

Gilvesy said the greenhouse indus-try has been pushing for the change, but there is significant opposition.

Gord Miller, Ontario’s environmen-tal commissioner, said it is a bad idea.

The Nutrient Management Act is designed to deal with manure and other nutrients that are soil applied, he said, while greenhouse waste water is similar in some respects to industrial effluent.

“I don’t understand the logic of such a discussion,” he said. “There’s just no rationale to put this under nutrient management.”

Miller’s office has only an advisory role. A legislative change would be necessary and much will depend on the outcome of the review. A recom-mendation is expected this summer, but implementation could take months.

Ontario’s Liberal-led government is in a minority position.

The Leamington area has the high-est concentration of greenhouses in North America. Several are 50 acres in size or larger and employ 100 or more workers.

The environment ministry also plans to investigate waste water com-pliance issues in other parts of the province.

It has issued orders to greenhouse operators in the Leamington area but no charges have been laid.

EAGER TO GET GROWING

You’d have to have rocks in your head to build a new sow barn with gestating sow stalls.

That conclusion has seemed pretty obvious to me for a couple of years, but now it should be obvious to everybody after the recent flurry of fast food and grocer y retai ler announcements that they might re-quire stall-free pork in the future.

I don’t say that based on my view of animal welfare and a consider-ation of the humane pros and cons of gestating sow stalls versus open housing.

Instead, I base it on concerns about market access and long-term capital risk management.

Basically, farmers will face a mul-timillion-dollar retrofit if they bor-row millions of dollars to build a new stall barn today and in eight years the packers refuse to take the pigs born in that barn.

It could mean bankruptcy if it hap-pened during a low price period. What would the bankers say about that?

I think the recent flurry of announce-ments by Burger King, Tim Hortons and Safeway can’t be ignored.

Cynics say the companies are just reacting to animal rights activists who can never be pacified because many are against all animal agricul-ture. As a result, giving into them on this will just lead to further demands in the future.

The difference to me is that here we have proof that some major buy-ers and retailers of pork see this par-ticular element of the production chain as a problem. They’re likely to be better than almost anyone at assessing consumer trends and sen-sitivities, so they should not be ignored.

As well, gestation stalls don’t seem to pass the modern smell test of acceptable treatment of animals. Even though veterinary authorities have considered gestating sow stalls to be humane and acceptable in a scientif ic way, the system just doesn’t seem to offer a nice life to an intelligent creature.

However, an alternative system exists that solves the problem, and it doesn’t appear to cost any more to build or operate.

Open housing of gestating sows provides a pretty nice life to a sow. I know that because I’ve toured the open housing barn at the University of Manitoba, where researchers have been studying the system for years.

I have also spoken to a number of producers who have looked at the system and have researched the economics of the system.

Barns have about a 25 year lifespan and cost millions of dollars, which means it is crucial to make the right construction decision.

It’s possible that the fast food

HEDGE ROW

ANIMAL WELFARE | HOG HOUSING

Consider risks involved in building sow stall barn

chains and grocery stores will forget all about this issue. As well, they might not be able to do anything about it, even if they do care.

So little pork is now produced using open housing that it might not be possible for a buyer to switch over, and few burger chains will be willing to go bacon-less. Would Safeway be willing to make its already-high pork prices even higher?

But how would you like to see fast food chains importing bacon from Europe, where producers have already moved to open housing? And what happens if a few thousand producers in North America make the switch?

Will a major packer declare they will take only stall-free pigs? Farm-ers who produce stall-free pigs would be able to sell to any packer.

Farmers with stall barns might have fewer packers to pick from. It could be another version of the United States’ country-of-origin legislation.

Few producers have built hog barns recently because of the bru-tal late-2000s price slump from which they are now just recovering. That’s fortunate because otherwise many producers might have built stall barns in the past couple of years.

This recent flush of announce-ments by fast food chains and Safe-way should cause any producer considering a new building project to think hard about the market and capital risk they’re taking on if they build another stall barn.

The biggest risk to farmers now isn’t an eventual move to an end of gestating sow stalls. The real risk is a ban on gestating sow stalls by pack-ers or governments that would take effect before present barns have outlived their useful lives. That would be a disaster.

Farmers would be better off to embrace a move to open housing with a reasonable time frame than to spend too much time defiantly defending gestating sow stalls. This is one of those buses it’s probably better to be on than under.

Resisting the move from gestation stalls to open housing may leave producers without a packer willing to buy. | FILE PHOTO

WORLD IN BRIEF

CHEESE

Earthquake shakes cheese markets

ROME, Italy (Reuters) — An earthquake that struck northern Italy will affect production and export of some of the area’s most internationally famous culinary delicacies: Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano cheeses.

Coldiretti, Italy’s national farmers group, has estimated damage to agriculture in the area, one of Italy’s most fertile and productive zones, at more than $250 million.

Some of the worst damage was to the production of Parmigiano Reggiano, also called Parmesan cheese, and its rival, Grana Padano.

About 300,000 wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano and 100,000 of Grana Padano, each weighing 40 kilograms, were damaged when they fell off shelves in warehouses

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Reuters) — The U.S. government will seek public input before it decides whether to change the release times of market-moving reports now that futures markets are open nearly around the clock.

“This is a complicated issue,” said agriculture secretary Tom Vilsack.

The department wants to assure equitable release of information for all market participants, he added.

While some traders would prefer that the U.S. Department of Agricul-ture release major reports while markets are closed, others want to capture the instantaneous surges in trading that would accompany a live release of significant information.

“We’re in the process of analyzing the pros and cons of a variety of dif-ferent ways to approach this,” Vilsack said. “And I think whatever decision is ultimately made, we will struc-ture it in such a way that I’m sure we will provide people an opportunity in some manner to provide their reaction to what it is we’re doing or considering so that whatever we ultimately decide to do on a perma-nent basis will be the best decision

for all concerned.” USDA reports are mostly released

in the early morning or late after-noon, when futures markets are closed or volume is low.

The CME Group Inc., which owns the long-established and market-leading Chicago Board of Trade, launched a 21-hour trading day May 20 after the upstart ICE began a 22-hour trade day for grains and soy-bean futures May 14.

Vilsack said the different trading hours for ICE and CBOT were a factor in the USDA’s review.

The first major USDA report to be released live during the new trading hours could be the monthly crop report due June 12. Financial mar-kets are open as a matter of routine when key energy data is released.

Some commodity traders say the USDA’s crop report and a compan-ion report on crop production, use and trade around the world cover a broader swath and require more time to digest.

In 1994, the USDA switched to early morning release of the U.S. and world crop forecasts, putting U.S. markets first in line to trade on the data.

MARKETS

Ukraine grain stocks high

KIEV, Ukraine (Reuters) — Ukraine’s grain stocks could reach a record 12 million tonnes at the beginning of the new 2012-13 season because of a slow pace of exports.

Ukraine had 5.1 million tonnes of grain in stocks as of July 1.

Ukrainian Agrarian Confederation director Serhiy Stoyanov said the country had exported 19.5 million tonnes of grain this season, includ-ing 950,000 tonnes May 1-15.

Data provided by Ukraine’s State Statistics Service show that grain stocks totalled 13.7 million tonnes as of May 1, 65 percent more than at the same date in 2011.

The service said stocks of large and medium-sized agriculture com-panies included 6.1 million tonnes of wheat, 1.3 million tonnes of bar-ley and 5.6 million tonnes of corn.

WEATHER

El Nino to return?

SYDNEY, Aus. (Reuters) — Aus-tralia’s Bureau of Meteorology says climate models indicate a possible return of the El Nino weather pat-tern in the second half of 2012.

The region’s last severe El Nino in 1998 killed more than 2,000 people and caused billions of dollars in damage to crops, infrastructure and mines in Australia and other parts of Asia.

The bureau tracks seven climate models from meteorology centres around the world, of which five indi-cate above El Nino conditions, while the remaining two sit on the neutral (neither El Nino or La Nina) and warm border.

USDA REPORTS | TIMING OF RELEASE

Timing of USDA report release ‘complicated’The department will get input on whether to release information when futures markets are open or closed

where they were undergoing the two-year-long seasoning process.

Coldiretti said 10 percent of the production of Parmigiano Reggiano and two percent of Grana Padano was affected by the quake.

Parmigiano Reggiano is one of Italy’s most expensive cheeses, retailing for $30 a kilogram in Italy and more abroad. The area produces 3.3 million wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano a year.

Giant pasta box sets world record

ROME, Italy (Reuters) — Shoppers can now buy a half-tonne box of pasta at supermarkets in Turkey.

Delivery is included in the price because they are too heavy and too big for the shopping trolley.

Italy’s Barilla, the world’s biggest pasta maker, and Turkey’s Migros Ticaret supermarket chain teamed up to produce the mega box of penne pasta, which sells for $560 for charity.

Guinness World Records has declared the 1 1/2 metre high and more than a metre wide box of pasta the biggest one ever produced, said Barilla.

The boxes will be sold at super-markets in Istanbul, Edirne and the resort port city of Bodrum.

While the seven models hint at a return to El Nino, the World Meteoro-logical Organization said it still maintains its neutral outlook for the second half of the year.

El Nino is linked to extreme weather that can curtail production of crops and other commodities on a global scale.

ORCHARDS | GROWERS’ MOOD

Orchardists express optimism: survey

BY TERRY EDWARDSFREELANCE WRITER

KELOWNA, B.C. — British Colum-bia apple growers may be losing money, but they’re not planning to abandon their orchards any time soon.

That was one of the findings of a recent survey initiated by the B.C. Fruit Growers’ Association.

The survey, conducted by Ipsos Reid March 12-20, provides insight into the makeup of the tree fruit industry in terms of types of fruit grown, size of production and acre-age and intent to replant, which is an indicator of investment and renewal in the industry.

It found that 15 percent of the 150 growers who responded intend to increase their apple acreage in the next five years, compared to six per-cent who plan to downsize, despite four consecutive years of losses caused by low apple prices.

Association president Kirpal Bopa-rai said the survey indicates that there is optimism in the sector and a commitment to stick it out even dur-ing hard times.

“Even with the economic crunch, we’re finding people are willing to stay long term,” he said.

“I think that’s due to some of the new generation coming into farm-ing, and they’re committed to it. Many of the growers who have fallen off the table are the older generation.

“The land prices are quite high right now so people who are invest-ing money, I think they’re here for the long term. That was the surprising part because we thought because of the economic times, people are going to leave, but it showed that’s not true.”

Av e r a g e f a r m s i z e r e m a i n s unchanged since 2005 at 19 acres, but a polarization seems to be occur-ring, with more growers having either smaller or larger farms. Com-pared to seven years ago, orchards owned by Punjabi growers have gen-erally reduced in size while those owned by non-Punjabi growers have increased.

The survey included an equal num-ber of Punjabi and non-Punjabi par-ticipants. Its margin of error is plus or minus seven percent.

It also showed that a replant-removal program would likely have a positive impact on the number of growers who stay in the industry. In particular, more than four in 10 agree that they would replant more acres to different varieties if there were a pro-gram similar to the previously avail-able replant-removal programs.

That’s good news because the pro-v i n c i a l g o v e r n m e n t r e c e n t l y announced it will provide B.C. apple and tree fruit growers with $2 million to help replant low-value orchards with high-demand varieties.

The program, which also includes a grafting and budding component, will operate for three years. Growers can apply to participate in the pro-gram at any time.

The fruit growers association will

administer the program with the B.C. Investment Agriculture Foundation.

“The replanting program will sup-port B.C.’s apple growers’ efforts to meet consumer demand for high-value apples, and lead to expanded markets in and out of the province,” said agr iculture minister Don McRae.

“The funding will help ensure Brit-ish Columbians have fresh, local foods while bringing employment and business opportunities through-out the fruit tree value chain.”

Boparai said the program is sorely required.

“We need this replant program because some of this land has been vacant, amalgamation is happening and because the land prices are so high. We need to replant because of the vacant land plus the older trees

need remodelling.”However, he said he would like to

see a much longer program in place.“The replant program is very, very

important and I think it should be continued for the next 10 or 15 years, not one or two years. Two million dollars doesn’t go very far when you’ve got $300 million coming into the valley, and that’s what the fruit industry provides. It does show the government is interested, but we need to be committed for a longer term than that.”

Other findings from the survey include:• apples continue to trump all others

as the most common tree fruit grown for sale by association members

APPLES GROWN IN B.C.

SUMMER APPLES

• Gingergold: yellow skinned, large fruit that matures between Sunrise and Gala

• Silken: an early (mid-August) apple with soft yellow to whitish skin colour. Flesh is sweet and juicy but it has a short storage life

• Sunrise: a cross of McIntosh and Golden Delicious developed at Summerland. Fruit is bright red with a pale yellow background. Flesh is crisp with an unique pear-grape flavour. Ripens two weeks before Gala. Short storage life

EARLY SEASON APPLES

• Gala (Royal): a cross between Golden Delicious and Cox’s Orange Pippin. Skin is red-orange. Crisp, dense, aromatic flesh. Stores well. Developed in New Zealand

• McIntosh: A popular old variety from Eastern Canada introduced in 1870. Flesh is sweet. Excellent for fresh eating, good for cooking

MID-SEASON APPLES

• Golden Delicious: introduced in 1900. Fruit is large, conic, golden yellow. Flesh is firm, crisp and juicy. Mild sweet flavour. Thin skinned so it easily bruises

• Ambrosia: Discovered as a whole tree in B.C. in early 1990. Skin colour is up to 80 percent total red with a distinctive pink-red blush. Fruit is sweet, crisp and juicy.

• Chinook: a cross of Gala and Splendour. Fruit is small to medium sized. Colour is pink-red with a yellow background. The fruit is sweet, juicy and crisp.

• Creston: a yellow skinned mid-sea-son apple with red stripes, large, sweet and juicy

• Honeycrisp: developed at the University of Minnesota in 1991 from a cross of Macoun and Honeygold. Skin is mottled red over yellow ground colour. Flesh is very crisp. Excellent quality.

• Jonagold: a cross of Jonathan and Golden Delicious, developed in New York State in 1968. Fruit is normally large and red striped over bright yellow. Flesh is firm and juicy. Superb full rich flavour. The finest dessert and eating quality.

• Liberty: resistant to apple scab, fire blight and powdery mildew. Fruit size can be small

• Red Delicious: good red colour with an elongated shape. Fruit is sweet and juicy

• Spartan: developed in B.C. in 1936 from a cross of McIntosh and Newton. Skin is dark red, almost mahogany. Flesh is pure white, firmer than McIntosh, highly aro-matic. Superb for fresh eating

LATE SEASON VARIETIES

• Braeburn: originated in New Zealand in 1952. Fruit is medium to large. Colour is red on a green-ish-yellow background. Flesh is firm, crisp and juicy. Flavour is sweet, tart and aromatic

• Fuji: fruit appearance is poor. Flesh is crisp, juicy with a fine tex-ture. Flavour is mild and sweet

STORIES BY DAN YATESSASKATOON NEWSROOM

Saskatchewan fruit growers can’t build an industry on their own, say two industry officials.

The Saskatchewan Fruit Growers Association (SFGA) and the Sask-atoon Berry Council of Canada (SBCC) hope to prove that there’s power in numbers by collecting information from individual produc-ers about prairie fruit production.

“As an industry, it’s no different than the canola or pulse industry,” said Sandra Purdy, head of the SBCC.

“It’s the collaboration of many growers that allow you to actually enter into larger markets with vol-ume of supply.”

Purdy said the council is working

on market development and finding new buyers for commercial growers whose production has outgrown farmers’ markets.

But to do that, producers need to better understand the saskatoon berry’s properties, including its ami-no acid and lipid content. Armed with that knowledge, the council will be able to better market saskatoons to functional food and nutraceutical processors in Canada and the United States, she said.

The council will collect saskatoon berries this summer from growers across Western Canada. It’s looking for half-pound samples from as many varieties and regions as possi-ble to be submitted for analysis. Purdy said the data should be col-lected by the end of the year.

The project was to have been con-ducted last year, but was delayed by poor growing conditions.

“There is data out there that shows that saskatoons have some very strong functional properties,” said Purdy, who operates Prairie Berries in Keeler, Sask.

“That’s why we’re going to this next step.... If a large processor comes to us and says, ‘I want to be able to have a standard protocol of so much anthocyanins or lipids in the prod-uct,’ ... we know then that we should, as an industry, work with that proces-sor and pull berries from a particular region that has a higher concentra-tion of that.”

The SFGA is also looking to fund research and leverage grant money by adding to the list of provincial

development commissions. The organization has applied to

establish a development commis-sion that will create a checkoff for Saskatchewan growers who produce more than 400 pounds of fruit.

The proposed plan, now under consideration by the provincial Agri-Food Council, would establish a levy of two cents per lb. of fruit and generate an estimated $98,000 per year at current production levels from the province’s small group of growers.

The SFGA spearheaded the initia-tive following a unanimous vote at its annual meeting in 2008.

“(There) are typical lone wolf pro-ducers, who for some reason would rather go it alone in terms of industry development,” said Mel Annand, the

SFGA’s past-president and a current director.

“That’s inevitable in any produc-tion system. I think you will have those producers who are not inter-ested in working co-operatively with other producers.”

A challenge to the proposed com-mission is the lack of information from individual producers. It needs to know not just how many acres are in production but how much reve-nue is being generated.

Annand said the information is easier to track and record through a commission.

“It helps the industry as a whole, in our view, because with detailed knowledge of production, better planning can be undertaken for how the industry might develop.”

Some commercial fruit growers in Saskatchewan are eligible for Saskatchewan Crop Insurance for the first time, following significant damages from flooding in recent years.

The program doesn’t cover yield or quality losses, but offers coverage for saskatoon, sour cherry and haskap producers who lose fruit-producing trees.

“It’s a start,” said Wayne Pearson, president of the Saskatchewan Fruit Growers Association (SFGA).

“The production loss program is something that we want to follow up with and add to the program as it is.”

The program, which was devel-oped by the SFGA, Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corp. and the Sas-katchewan agriculture ministry, includes fruit establishment insur-ance for trees one to three years old and replacement insurance for trees four to six years old for producers growing specific cultivars.

Pearson said the program, with “a good buy-in price,” could see a $3.50 per tree returned to a grower, said Pearson.

“Fruit is so different because it’s usually very small acreage of high value crops. So it’s a little different animal in a way from your grains and oilseeds,” said Pearson.

“So we couldn’t really adopt a for-mula that was already established. We sort of had to come up with our own figures, what we wanted to do and how to do that a little unique for fruit.”

Pearson hopes the program can be expanded to include all fruit crops in the province, but more historical data on production is needed that either doesn’t exist for newer crops or hasn’t been kept.

While the inclusion of fruit growers was announced shortly before the spring crop insurance deadline, Pearson said interest for such a pro-gram has been high among SFGA members.

“I think for now the replacement program is a really good start.”

BED OF BLOOMS |


BY SHIRLEY BYERSFREELANCE WRITER

WADENA, Sask. — The Wadena and District Museum’s spacious new farm machinery building is a far cry from the lean-to shelter that muse-um board member Francis Weber originally had in mind.

Local machinery dealers Bill Sowa and Russell Batiuk of Wheatbelt Sales in Wadena rejected Weber’s modest proposal, opting instead for an 8,400 sq. foot structure and pick-ing up the entire tab of more than $120,000.

“We’ve sold machinery since 1965 and we always were quite interested in farm machinery,” Sowa said.

“As well, we probably had quite a bit to do with some of the innova-tions in machinery, but we also felt we owed it to the pioneers who worked so hard. We felt some of that machinery should be preserved for the future.”

Sowa had started farming after high school and worked at Massey Fergu-son in Toronto, where he was in-volved in engineering.

He and Batiuk went into business together in 1965, and theirs was one of the first dealerships to convince

Massey Ferguson to test equipment locally.

“ They were testing too much equipment in the southern U.S., where the weather is a lot different from ours,” he said.

“They had no problems with their machines. Here, our conditions were a lot different.”

As well as supplying the museum’s new building, Sowa will also donate one of the first Versatile tractors. The 100 Versatile sold for $6,500 when it was first made in 1964.

Today, a comparable tractor would cost $465,000.

Sowa said the recent acquisition of Prairie Belle, the combine that Brit-ish Columbia farmer Nick Parsons drove across Canada twice in sup-port of farmers, is a nice asset for the museum.

However, he’s probably more excited about another combine he and Batiuk recently bought for the museum: the Roto Thresh Combine. It was revolutionary in that it used centrifugal force to separate grain from the straw, replacing the straw walker system that shook grain from the straw using conveyor belts.

Only 50 of the original Roto Thresh combines were manufactured at

ORLANDO, Fla. (Reuters) — Forget farm to table. The newest food trend in U.S. cities comes from the back-yard: eggs out of the urban chicken coop.

“It is part of the creative class trend,” said Orlando city commissioner Patty Sheehan, who recently pushed through an urban chicken pilotprogram.

All 25 permits were scooped up and a waiting list of 25 formed within hours of the program being adopted by city commissioners.

“We had people waiting outside of city hall to sign up. I’ve never had anything that popular, to be quite honest,” Sheehan said.

“The people that are interested in it are the young professionals, people that enjoy growing their own food. It’s part of the progressive food move-ment.”

Raising backyard chickens in the city is growing in popularity nation-wide, driven by Americans’ desire for fresher, local, wholesome and safe food, said Dennis Mudge, the University of Florida’s agriculture extension agent in Orlando.

“Everything is moving toward rais-ing your own food and this is just a natural way to do that. It’s really picked up and, besides, it’s so much fun,” Mudge said.

While preparing for the Orlando pilot program, city employees identi-fied 166 U.S. cities that already permit backyard chickens, including Chi-cago, New York, Los Angeles and Atlanta.

A recent National League of Cities meeting in Phoenix featured that city’s third annual Tour de Coops.

Some trendy owners are spending hundreds of dollars on upscale coops.

In its online catalogue, housewares company Williams-Sonoma offers two exclusive coops, handmade in

the United States from certifiable sustainable wood, which are priced from $660 to $880 US.

For an additional $400, the store will also ship a screened run “so your hens can enjoy fresh air, exercise and foraging opportunities in a safe, enclosed space.”

“Some of them (coops) are replicas

of their house. It’s hilarious what’s going on,” Mudge said. “These are going to be the best treated chickens in the world.”

Baby chicks cost $3 to $5 each, depending on the breed and sex. Females are more expensive. Young hens that have just started laying eggs cost $15 to $25 each, according to

livestock suppliers.The Orlando pilot program, like

many modern ordinances geared toward downtown chicken farming, limits permit holders to a maximum of three hens that must be kept in a backyard coop set back at least 1 1/2 metres from a neighbor’s yard and six metres from a neighbour’s home.

Some older ordinances allow home-owners to keep a greater number of chickens — up to 15 in Miami — but require setbacks of up to 30 metres, thus limiting the ability to raise chickens on small residential lots near the urban core.

Sheehan said opposition to urban chicken farming typically comes from people concerned about the potential disturbance from aggres-sive, crowing roosters, which are banned in Orlando.

“A lot of people don’t understand you don’t need a rooster to make eggs,” Sheehan said.

“Most neighbours are placated when they realize there’s not a roost-er over there. And if you can give them a few fresh eggs here and there, that’s a good way to make peace.”

Sheehan said hens are quieter than dogs and produce a lot less waste: 40 grams per hen per day, which makes great compost, versus 340 grams per average dog.

And, like a dog, Mudge said urban chickens can be pets that provide eggs for the family as a bonus.

“They like to be held. They’ll sit on your lap. They’ll follow you around, and they make great pets.”

allow plenty of space for displays. Artifacts include a 1527 John Deere

tractor from the 1920s, a steam pow-ered tractor, a wooden McCormick-Deering threshing machine, two working binders and four working combines.

Sowa and Batiuk have also made history, selling implements to South America, Guatemala and Tasmania and being the first dealership to sell Versatile tractors to the Ukraine.

However, Sowa said it’s about more than sales: it’s also important that the area’s agricultural heritage not be lost.

“We want to preserve something that can be seen, showing how we got to where we are today.”

That’s f ine with Yakowec and Weber, with one proviso.

“If he keeps donating machinery, he’ll have to give us another building to put it in,” Weber said with a smile.

Western Roto Thresh Ltd. in Sask-atoon in the 1970s.

The patent has since lapsed and other machinery manufacturers have adopted the concept.

Construction and landscaping for the Wheatbelt Building was donated by area contractor Bob Little of R.W. Little Construction. Little’s employ-ees donated their time.

Another local business, Neilson Trucking, contributed landscaping and trenching to drain sloughs near the building.

Museum curator Louise Yakowec said at least 100 pieces of farm machinery are at the museum. Some are stored in an open shed and others in another building, protected from the weather but not easily accessible for viewing. The new building will

Earl Geddes said something star-tling about the Canadian Interna-tional Grains Institute at its recent 40th anniversary celebration.

“It’s just really a lot of fun to be at CIGI right now,” the institute’s execu-tive director told a roomful of grain industry leaders, CIGI staff and retired CIGI leaders.

“It has … positioned CIGI in quite a changing environment to be able to look forward and say, ‘so, what could we become?’ ”

A “lot of fun” is not how many would describe the political polar-ization, hardball politics, lawsuits and ongoing commercial headaches consuming the prairie grain trade as it attempts to grapple with the revo-lution in wheat, durum and barley marketing brought on by ending the CWB’s monopolies. However, CIGI has been an odd island of calm and optimism throughout the process.

It seems to be an organization that all aspects of the industry support, regardless of political perspective, commercial interest or organiza-tional self-focus.

“The past 40 years have been a remarkable success,” said Elwin Her-manson, chief commissioner of the Canadian Grain Commission, one of the organization’s two founding partners.

“CIGI really has brought the world to 303 Main (the address of the CIGI building in downtown Winnipeg).”

CWB chief executive officer Ian White, a much-experienced Austra-lian agricultural commodities trad-ing executive, said CIGI has given Canada a marketing edge since 1972 that few have been able to match.

“When you think about the brand of Canadian wheat, … that has been enhanced massively by the contribu-tion of CIGI to the marketing effort, and that has meant that customers around the world … revere the Cana-dian product almost above anything else in the world as a sort of superior gold standard,” White said.

CIGI was founded in 1972 after the CWB and CGC decided to set up an independent body to train prairie farmers, Canadian grain customers and foreign buyers how to best use the crops grown on the Canadian Prairies.

It originally offered courses that extended over weeks. Grain users from across the globe travelled to Winnipeg to see the nature of the Canadian grain industry and learn about the technical complexities of using particular types and qualities of Canadian crops.

The organization has run 4,700 programs and educated 36,000 peo-ple in the past 40 years, creating a casual alumni network that spreads across the Prairies and throughout the international grain business.

Suzy Miller, a senior Agriculture Canada manager and present CIGI board member, said 450 to 500 Agri-culture Canada staff have taken CIGI courses over the years, which has

been a big benefit to farmers and the grain industry.

“Trust me, you want them to take the course. The more they know about your industry, the better,” said Miller. “They can work for you.”

CIGI has broadened its research and promotion efforts over the years to other crops that have joined the prairie portfolio and now it carries out product testing and promotes pulse-based flours, noodles and baked products.

It also has a full Asian noodle pro-ducing and testing line that enables buyers from Asia to see how prairie grains fare in making those eastern staples.

It has sophisticated baking facilities that allow it to test hundreds of vari-eties and blends of grains.

The anniversary celebration brought

together representatives from many grain industry and commodity organi-zations. Virtually all of Canada’s grain companies had a number of officials at the gala.

Four of the organization’s five executive managers since 1972 were in the room, missing only one who is no longer alive.

CGC commissioner and CIGI board chair Murdoch MacKay said the web of human relationships cre-ated by the CIGI courses is its greatest contribution to creating markets for Canadian crops.

“It’s been a great learning experi-ence. It’s memories that you will have for the rest of your life and never for-get,” said McKay.

“It’s people that you will meet and relationships that build and develop over time.”

Centennial ColumnCelebrating 100 years of students at the College of Agriculture and Bioresources. The Centennial Column is a weekly feature highlighting the history and present successes of the college.

Shaping the FutureHadley Van Vliet was one of the unique individuals in the College of Agriculture

(and Bioresources) with major contributions to both the university and the agricultural community. Professor Van Vliet was a pillar in the building of the Department of Agricultural Economics, attracting top students and providing research and policy suggestions with signifi cant provincial and national ramifi cations.

He was a Saskatchewan boy, born in 1914 and grew up on the family farm at Quinton. He graduated from the University of Saskatchewan in 1934 with Great Distinction and then received his MSc in 1936 specializing in farm management. He studied for his PhD at the University of Wisconsin where he was strongly infl uenced by people like John R. Commons, the noted institutional economist and advocate of social justice. It was the Wisconsin tradition of studies in economics, law and rural sociology that would give him his orientation for his teaching, research and community work in Saskatchewan. He returned to Saskatchewan where he was appointed Instructor in the College of Agriculture in 1938. He became Assistant Professor in 1940 and Full Professor and Department Head in 1944, the position he held until his death in 1968.

Affectionately known as Van, he was one of the best-known professors of the day in rural Saskatchewan. He was widely sought out for his opinions and advice by farm organizations, governments and farmers. He could hold his students spellbound in his farm management class as he lit a match on his shoe and let it burn almost to his fi ngers before lighting his cigarette. His impressive intellectual capacity attracted many outstanding scholars to the department including three Rhodes Scholars and fi ve Governor-General award winners.

Van carried on a heavy research program. At least seven major agricultural programs with signifi cant provincial and national ramifi cations were completed under his direction. These included work on farm management, resource economics—especially irrigation—as well as the legal and institutional aspects of land use and the provincial land assessment systems.

He received an Honorary Life Membership in the Saskatchewan Agricultural Graduates Association in 1967 and became a Fellow of the Agricultural Institute of Canada in 1968. He suffered a massive heart attack at age 54 and passed away shortly thereafter in 1968.

90% LESS DRIFT, LESS RUN OFF,

SUPERIOR COVERAGEDrift occurs when droplets are smaller than 200 microns. Standard sprayer nozzles drift because they produce droplets that are 50-300 micron in size with a large percentage under 200. With a droplet range of 200-550 microns, the Air Bubble Jet has 90% less drift than standard nozzles.

Run off occurs with big droplets - 600 microns and over. Depending on the manufacturer, other low drift nozzles produce droplets that range in size from 250-1000 microns. That is why run off can be a problem. With a droplet size of 200-550 microns, your chemical stays on the plant when applied with the Air Bubble Jet.

New Twin Air Bubble Jet. With the twin cap, you can use 2-5 gallon nozzles rather than 1-10 gallon nozzles. The advantage is you get over twice as many droplets per square inch for superior coverage.

Air Bubble jet nozzles operate at 30-45 psi and have an overall range of 20-90 psi. They can be used to apply fungicides, insecticides and herbicides to any crop including potatoes and pulse crops.

Ag Canada tested.

“The Air Bubble Jet consistently produces droplets

that are 200-550 microns in size. Too big to drift - too

small to run off.”

NEW PRODUCT

Evolution of the ART MonitorThe WIRELESS ART Rate and Blockage monitor takes the uncertainty out of air cart operation. You will know if your seeding system is having any of these common problems:• Seed Blockage/No Seed Problems• Rate Problems

Use your Google ® Android ® Phone to keep track of our air seeder operation with an ‘App’. (Windows Phone, Apple and Blackberry ‘App’s are in development)No wires to the cab means quicker startups, and no worries about towing the seeder with the monitor harness! The WIRELESS ART works with today’s large single Shoot and Double Shoot seeding systems. Up to 240 runs can be monitored on double shoot systems (separate seed and fertilizer runs). Use the WIRELESS ART to confi rm your calibration for seed and fertilizer rates using the Seed Rate Wizard. Seeds per acre (or pounds per acre) and Fertilizer pounds per acre are displayed.

Step into the productivity of a new Guardian™ front boom sprayer from New Holland and you won’t turn back. With the boom in front,

you have a complete unobstructed view of every nozzle. This outstanding visibility means you can run the boom closer to the ground to control

drift. Spray is delivered into the crop before the fi rst tires go over it, eliminating the potential for dust to neutralize the spray. Start achieving a

new level of spraying freedom and productivity.

THE HIGHEST HORSEPOWER AVAILABLE – UP TO 365 HPTHE LARGEST TANK SIZES – UP TO 1,600 GALLONS

THE HIGHEST CROP CLEARANCE – SIX FEETTHE TIGHTEST TURNING – 15-FOOT TURNING RADIUS

SUNNY DAY FOR SEEDING

The CWB isn’t the only grain com-pany forced to figure out how to get product to customers under an open market.

Louis Dreyfus Canada owns one port terminal, but it is in Port Cartier, Que., on the Gulf of St. Lawrence, a long way from its western Canadian elevator network.

As a result, the grain company that owns six percent of Western Cana-da’s primary elevator capacity has had to negotiate with its competitors for access to their west coast export terminals.

Louis Dreyfus Canada president Brant Randles did not respond to interview requests, but he did touch on the subject this winter at a num-ber of grain industry conferences.

“From the presentations that I’ve seen, they have handling agreements out in Vancouver,” said Charlie Pear-son, provincial crops market analyst

with Alberta Agriculture.“I can’t say which one of the termi-

nals because I don’t know, quite honestly.”

There are striking similarities between Louis Dreyfus’s plight and that of the CWB.

“(Louis Dreyfus) used themselves as a good example of what the Cana-dian Wheat Board will be in the new world because they don’t have port capacity,” said Pearson.

The CWB has negotiated a port agreement with Cargill and is in talks with other grain companies about accessing their terminals.

Pearson suspects Louis Dreyfus may have handling agreements in place with multiple competitors because both parties would benefit from such an arrangement.

“There is excess capacity on the West Coast and there is opportuni-ties for a company like Louis Drey-fus to negotiate a port access agree-ment and they have done that,” he said.

GRAIN HANDLING | PORT ACCESS

Dreyfus may offer example to CWB


One of the main players in Canada’s grain industry may be poised for expansion.

Louis Dreyfus Commodities is embarking on a $7 billion global spending spree.

Serge Schoen, chief executive offi-cer of the privately held grain firm, said in a rare interview with The Financial Times that spending over the next five years will be 40 percent more than the past five years.

“We will be certainly making more acquisitions than we have done in the past,” said Schoen.

Murray Fulton, an agricultural economist at the University of Sas-katchewan, thinks some of the mon-ey could be spent bolstering the company’s Canadian holdings.

Louis Dreyfus owns 10 grain eleva-tors, one port terminal and a canola crushing plant in Canada. All of those assets, except for the Quebec port facil-ity, are located in Western Canada.

The company controls six percent of western primary elevator capacity and handles five percent of the crop.

“It would seem that there would be room for growth,” Fulton said.

“To the extent that they have an office here, getting more things underneath that office is often what companies want to do.”

Louis Dreyfus Canada president Brant Randles did not respond to

interview requests, but last Novem-ber he told Reuters the company wouldn’t likely be pursuing mergers and acquisitions under an open mar-ket in Canada.

“(Company) valuations are very rich in Western Canada,” he said.

Fulton said there has been plenty of outside interest in Western Canada’s grain handling system and he would be surprised if Louis Dreyfus isn’t at least contemplating expanding its market share.

The problem is there isn’t much left for sale once Glencore’s takeover of Viterra is approved.

“If people want to get into this mar-ket, they’re going to probably have to be a bit more creative,” he said.

“If they really want to do it, they find ways.”

That might involve going after some of the region’s pulse crop firms, such as the struggling Alliance Grain Traders Inc. The firm has 12 pulse processing plants in Canada that could easily be converted to han-dling wheat and barley, said Fulton.

Alliance shares have fallen from more than $34 in February 2010 to below $11 late last week.

“Companies that are struggling are often really good targets for take-overs. That’s very common,” said Fulton.

He doesn’t anticipate Louis Dreyfus building new assets in Western Cana-da because the region already has plenty of grain handling capacity.

The Canadian International Grains Institute will soon be generating more revenue through service fees and contracts with private sector grain companies and industr y groups.

Earl Geddes, the institute’s execu-tive director, said revenues from commercial business deals and fee-for-service arrangements will almost certainly increase after Aug. 1.

“We’re going to see quite a few changes in how CIGI functions because we’re losing a single partner (the CWB) that really directed about 65 percent of our programming in the past,” Geddes said in Saskatoon last week.

“We’re already seeing more interest from (other) grain companies that are now going to be selling wheat and durum and barley and they’re com-ing to us and asking, ‘can you help us to understand this part of the market better? Would you be available if we had a customer complaint? And can you do this type of analysis at your facility?’ There’s no question that more of CIGI’s funding will come from the private sector.”

CIGI’s primary purpose is to pro-mote the use of Canadian grain by providing training, customer sup-port and technical advice to buyers and end users.

The institute is also involved in research projects that look for new ways to use Canadian cereals, pulses, oilseeds and special crops.

The institute operates on a budget of $6.5 million to $8 million per year, but Geddes said that budget could easily expand after Aug. 1.

“I would think that it may go up simply because of the new commer-cial business that we hope to do,” he said.

CIGI receives a significant portion of its revenue from western Canadi-an farmers under the single desk marketing system, which will remain in place for another two months.

As much as $2.2 million per year is deducted from CWB pool accounts and allocated to CIGI operations.

That funding arrangement will change after Aug. 1.

Farmers will continue to support CIGI operations, but farmer contri-butions will be collected through a refundable producer checkoff rather than through mandatory deductions

from CWB pool accounts.CIGI’s other revenue is derived

through direct government pay-ments and commercial agree-ments.

Geddes said he does not expect g ov e r n m e n t c o n t r i b u t i o n s t o decrease in the near future.

The institute is also expanding its role in promoting Canadian pulse crops.

A research project is looking for new ways to use pulse crops and pro-cessed products such as pulse flour. It could open up new markets for Canadian pulses and will expand CIGI’s involvement in crops other than cereal grains.

“We see pulses growing to repre-sent as much as 30 percent of CIGI business in the future,” Geddes said.

CIGI is headquartered in Winni-peg, but recent media reports have suggested the institute may be con-sidering an expanded presence out-side of the Manitoba capital, most notably in Saskatoon.

“I think those stories may have some merit to them,” said Geddes.

“If, in fact, (Saskatoon) is where the wheat industry is going to be, and the pulse industry (is going to be) … it would make some serious sense … to consider where we should be locat-ed.”

He said decisions on where the institute should position its resourc-es will hinge on a number of factors, including organizational changes that may occur at CIGI and the fate of a proposed grains excellence centre in Winnipeg.

BEELITZ, Germany (Reuters) — Present a spear of finger-thick white asparagus to a German and watch his eyes light up.

Come springtime each year, Ger-mans shed their typically sober atti-tude toward food and swoon over the freshness, flavour and girth of their asparagus.

This enthusiasm, fanned by a rising consumer appreciation of local, sea-sonal food, has transformed whole regions of the former East Germany in recent decades as farmers re-introduce a vegetable once viewed by communist authorities as a preten-tious, expensive delicacy and a waste of labour and land.

Ernst-August Winkelmann grabs a handful of soil at his asparagus farm in Beelitz, 50 kilometres southwest of Berlin, and allows its sandy sub-stance to run through his fingers.

“Beelitz asparagus is really very fine,” he said.

“Other German asparagus is good too, but the Beelitz crop is nuttier. The soil is sandier, it grows particu-larly fast and is extremely tender.”

Only 25 acres of land were dedicat-ed to asparagus production in Beelitz when the Berlin Wall fell in 1989.

That was a far cry from the 2,500 acres that were farmed for asparagus in the late 1930s.

However, with the outbreak of the Second World War, Germany’s Nazi rulers decided asparagus was not rich enough in calories to justify such labour-intensive production.

The young women of the Nazi Bund Deutscher Maedel (German girls association) who had helped pick the vegetable were sent to make

armaments instead.Fifty years of communist rule fol-

lowed for Beelitz, during which land was collectivized and farmers plant-ed crops deemed more essential in the “workers’ and farmers’ state,” such as wheat, potatoes and corn.

But in the past 20 years, production has surged again to 3,000 acres, helped by Beelitz’s historical asso-ciations as an asparagus centre. Expansion is rising steadily each year.

Germans are famed for their love of white asparagus rather than the more common green variety. Ninety to 95 percent of consumption in Germany is of white asparagus, which must be grown deep in the soil and dug out by hand.

It is backbreaking labour, and local farmers acknowledge the industry would not be where it is today with-out the help of thousands of Polish and Romanian seasonal workers who extract each stalk separately.

Mariusz Gancarz, a 39-year-old Pole from Ostrow, will spend two months in Beelitz at the Buschmann and Winkelmann farm picking asparagus to save for a house he is building.

“You need a certain skill to do this and passion for the land,” he said.

Gancarz bends over and removes heavy plastic sheeting from a soil mound and then looks for t iny cracks in the soil, which indicates that an asparagus stalk is pushing up underneath. He starts to dig with a special tool and uncovers a pert white stalk, which he cuts at a length of 22 centimetres.

An experienced labourer can har-

vest 20 kilograms an hour, but the timing must be spot on. The shoots, which can grow up to seven centi-metres a day in warm weather, spoil once they push too far out of the soil.

The finest spears, judged to be straightest and with the most pert tips, sell for around $11 per kg.

Asparagus has been prized since ancient times for its delicate flavour and alleged medicinal properties. It is low in calories and rich in vitamins and dietary fibre.

As restaurants across Germany dis-play special asparagus or Spargel menus, and wine shops peddle accompanying Spargel wines, some may feel the vegetable is being over-hyped.

However, farmers and chefs are quick to dismiss the suspicion.

“Asparagus is no fashion vegetable. It is very healthy and only available for a short time in Germany. All other asparagus is imported and will have travelled a very long way by ship from South America,” said Winkelmann.

“It tastes best when it is fresh.”Winkelmann said he eats 500 grams

a day, or 20 to 30 kg a season.The average German eats almost

two kg a year, he said, which is one of the highest consumption rates in the world.

Germany had a record harvest of 103,000 tonnes last year as house-hold consumption rose seven per-cent. The world’s largest producers are China and Peru, which grow green asparagus.

Aficionados may extol its healthy credentials, but white asparagus is mostly eaten in Germany drenched in butter or served with hollandaise

sauce, schnitzel and a plate of pota-toes.

“It is the first spring vegetable so it brings lots of positive associations,” said Stefan Pietschmann, head chef at the restaurant on the Buschmann and Winkelmann farm.

“The classics dominate: asparagus with potatoes, schnitzel or scram-bled egg,” he said.

“Later people start experimenting with sauces, ragouts, for example blood orange sauce, or soups, with curry or with almond, for example.”

It may look easy to prepare, in boil-ing water with a dash of sugar and salt, but it is also easy to overcook.

“We cook it so that the spear still has some tension left within it. That gives it bite,” said Pietschmann.

Just outside Beelitz in the little hamlet of Schlunkendorf, 63-year-old Manfred Schmidt, who said he “lives for Spargel,” has set up a muse-um dedicated to the vegetable in the cottage where he was born.

On display are some of the grand serving plates once used for aspara-gus, reflecting its former reputation as an elite vegetable for the gentry, as well as some of the curious tools used to extract it.

Schmidt, who grows his own small crop and experiments with different species in a quest of the perfect taste, is proud of the way asparagus pro-duction has returned to its former glory in Beeltiz. However, he has lost a valuable bartering tool.

“People only ate around 200 grams of Spargel a year in East Germany, so giving away a bunch of Spargel was a great way for getting my Trabant car fixed,” he said.

• In early spring, ridges are built up over the asparagus.

• The ridges are covered with heavy plastic sheeting to keep out sun-light. Some growers use foil strips on the rows. One side is white, the other black. By turning the foil around the temperature can be raised or lowered.

• Due to the lack of sunshine inside the ridges, the stems stay white.

• Timing is key because the spear begins to turn purple or green after the asparagus reaches the light.

• Asparagus can grow up to seven centimetres per day so some farms pick in the morning and again at night.

GROWING WHITE ASPARAGUS

Surfactants have come a long way since the days of diesel and dish detergent mixes.

Lecithin has been an important ingredient for decades, but its role within a surfactant mix isn’t always well understood.

The surfactant LI 700 by Loveland depends on a formula called Leci-Tech, which has lecithin as the main component. According to literature from UAP, LI 700 provides six benefits:• better spreadability so the active

ingredient in the pesticide has bet-ter contact with the leaves

• improved adhesion so the product remains on the leaves

• enhanced breakdown of the waxy coating so the product penetrates the protective outer surfaces

• less cell wall disruption on the plant surface improves crop health

• environmentally friendly because it is made from soybean oil

• droplet management, one of the chief factors in controlling drift and off-target spray, is enhanced by lecithin

UAP said its LI 700 is the only pene-trating surfactant that is labelled to have a lower potential of off-target spray. Studies conducted at Agricul-ture Canada’s research centre in Saskatoon support its claim, said application technology researcher Tom Wolf.

“In our research, LI 700 had a very interesting ability to change droplet size,’’ said Wolf.

“It reduced the number of driftable fine droplets in the spray without increasing the number of big drop-lets. And that’s odd.”

Wolf said it’s necessary when reduc-ing drift to reduce the number of those fine droplets, which are slow moving and do not carry enough weight to hold their trajectory in a breeze.

Farmers who wanted to reduce spray drift would traditionally use a low-pressure, low-drift nozzle with or without air induction. Reduced inter-nal nozzle pressure reduces the fines.

However, the negative side effect is that reduced internal nozzle pres-sure increases the number of big droplets, and they are not useful in a spray operation.

“There are normally only a small number of these large droplets, but they hog a large percentage of the spray volume,” said Wolf.

“Think of it as one or two volleyballs mixed in with hundreds of ping pong balls. There are very few volleyballs, but they hold a lot of the product. Their low number means that very few will hit a leaf. But we have lots of ping pong balls, so it’s likely that most of them will hit a target.”

Wolf said small droplets of less than 150 microns account for 15 to 20 per-cent of the spray volume in a typical spray pattern without low pressure. These are the fine droplets that are prone to stray from the target.

Large droplets bigger than 600 microns account for five to 10 per-cent of the spray volume. They have little benefit for the spray operation because there are so few of them, and

little of their liquid ends up on the target.

“If we go to low-drift nozzles, we go from 15 to 20 percent driftables down to five percent driftables. That’s a two-thirds reduction and that’s very good,” he said.

“But on the down side, the large drop component increases to as much as 20 percent, and that’s not good. Yes, you’ve reduced spray drift, but in doing so, you may have also reduced your coverage.

“That’s where LI 700 becomes inter-esting. In our research, the fines were significantly reduced without an increase in the number of big drops.”

Wolf said Agriculture Canada’s research results matched what other researchers around the world have also found with LI 700. The product reduces driftable fines by 30 to 50 percent with no increase in the heavy coarse drops.

UAP takes it one step further, dealing with the really small fines. It says drop-

lets smaller than 100 microns are reduced by as much as 62 percent.

Av e r a g e d r o p l e t s p e e d a l s o increased with LI 700, meaning more of the product keeps its aim and hits the target, said Wolf.

He has also documented the veloc-ity of the entire spray cloud.

Small droplets move more slowly in a conventional spray cloud so that the cloud has a lower average speed.

If half the fines are converted to medium size drops, they no longer bring down the average speed of the cloud.

The average cloud speed is faster

and the overall cloud becomes more accurate.

“It’s like loading your 12 gauge shotgun with a blend of number two buckshot and number seven bird-shot and aiming at a target 50 yards away,” he said.

“Some of the buckshot will hit the target but the birdshot will scatter all over the place. That’s what lecithin technology does for you. It reduces the number of light weight birdshot bb’s and turns them into the heavier more accurate buckshot bb’s so more of them hit the target.”

He said none of the drops in the cloud increase in speed. It’s a math-ematical average that simply re-moves small droplets from the mix.

The liquid that had been wasted in driftable small fines now becomes useful with the addition of LI 700.

Wolf said it also has other benefits. “When LI 700 is added to the spray

solution, it works to gently open the plant’s leaf surface to improve prod-uct uptake,” he said.

“Lecithin is an oil. If you put lecithin in any product it lowers surface tension and improves product uptake. We can use carbon 14 tracing to very clearly measure the increase in uptake.

“The other significant factor is the pH of your spray water. Water with high pH initiates alkaline hydrolysis, which breaks down many of the crop protection products farmer regularly use.… That’s another benefit of leci-thin. It reduces the pH of the spray water in your tank so the product retains maximum efficacy.”

Lecithin in a surfactant reduces the percentage of fine droplets, which are susceptible to drift and reduces surface tension on the leaves so chemicals work better, according to Tom Wolf, application technology researcher at Agriculture Canada’s research centre in Saskatoon.

ST. JOSPEH, Mo. — Farmers’ fixa-tion on nitrogen fixation is two fold: yield and cost.

Pulse crop margins are built on reasonable prices for the commodi-ties, good yields, low costs of produc-tion and leftover nitrogen in the soil.

The last three require nitrogen fix-ing rhizobia inoculation of the root systems.

In St. Joseph, Missouri, Becker

Underwood’s inoculants begin their trip from discovery in the lab to the farm field.

The company also has a Canadian research and production facility in Saskatoon, which is part of its six North American locations.

“St. Joseph is focused on liquid inoculants and research,” said Chris Freiden, who heads up operations there and seed biology at the com-pany’s Idaho facility.

“We do peat (spherical granule) based products here as well. Clay (granule production) takes place in

Saskatoon. We do a (traditional, non-sterile) peat product as well, but it is a declining business as more farmers move to granule use.”

Nitrogen fixing bacteria cause plants to take the nutrient from the air and place it in a plant’s roots and ultimately the tissues and seeds. Their life begins with scientists like Padma Somasegaran, researcher and head of quality control for Beck-er Underwood.

“When it comes to getting nitrogen out of the environment, you have two choices, industrial or biologic:

Haber-Bosch or legume-rhizobia symbiosis,” he said.

“One costs a lot more than the other.”Getting the right rhizobia in suffi-

cient quantities is critical to success-ful inoculation.

Somasegaran and his colleagues begin by looking for strains of bacte-ria that encourage nitrogen fixation and are durable enough to survive in a variety of soil acidity levels, tem-peratures and other abiotic and biotic stress conditions.

With the right rhizobial strains fix-ing nitrogen, soybean roots can fix

bacteria that allows pulse crops to manufacture their own nitrogen from the air.

59 to 149 pounds of nitrogen per acre, per season, an equivalent of 114 to 219 lb. of urea. Lentils can fix 78 to 101 lb. of actual nitrogen and peas can fix 46 to 69 lb.

There are different strains within the families and each is selected based on its effectiveness within a geographic region. Certain strains are mandated in some international jurisdictions.

Feiden said four strains are allowed in Brazil. In Canada, the strains have been efficacy tested according to fed-eral rules that will change next April.

“The U.S.? Well it’s the wild, wild west. We test everything because it’s our reputation that is at stake. We test and test,” he said.

Inoculant companies must test through all phases of the rhizobia’s development and production to keep the quality of the product in line with grower expectations.

“These are live animals,” he said. “Very small, but they are living and

we have to keep their populations up through seeding and into the grow-ing season.”

Feiden said at least 100,000 must reach each seed sown.

“Peas and lentils (rhizobia) are much more fragile than soybean,” he said.

The appropriate bacteria are in-creased in flasks, while undergoing constant movement.

Pea and lentil rhizobia take three to four days to grow or increase, while soybean appropriate bugs take six to 10 days.

Those populations are then placed into larger, computer managed ves-sels of 2,000 litres. From there they move to 20,000 litre production.

The rhizobia are tested at each step for target populations, with pea and lentil products being test-ed up to 20 times on their way to being moved into special, farm-ready poly bladders.

The system and the facility is ultra

clean, with machinery repaired and sterilized between batches.

“It’s like repairing and maintaining farm machinery between growing seasons to avoid a wreck. Except our seasons are a lot shorter,” Feiden said.

If there is going to be a wreck, it hap-pens in the bladder fill room where 250,000 containers pass each year.

“If we get 10 returns a year we feel that is acceptable. In 2011 we had none,” said Feiden.

A microbiologist fills a 7.52 litre bladder with a product such as Nod-ulator XL every 10 minutes.

All the replacement parts and tools for the job are sterilized and kept inside the clean suite where the filling takes place, just in case a breakdown occurs. If that happens, it can be fixed without risking contamination and a decontamination of the fill room.

A printed code is attached to each bladder after it leaves the fill room, making it fully traceable should there be a problem.

Food for the nitrogen fixing bacte-ria is added to the bladders, which are then placed in boxes and shipped to distributors.

“Biotechnology is what we do,” said Peter Innes, chief executive officer of Becker Underwood.

“Our reputation is critical in this business. Farmers and the dealers who service them are very loyal, pro-vided you don’t ever screw up. So we test everything and over-deliver, just to be sure.”

The company recently introduced bacillus subtilis, a biological fungicide to suppress rhizoctonia and fusarium in soybean and canola seed.

“It’s worth a half a bushel to the acre (in canola),” Innes said about the product, which is found in Monsan-to’s Acceleron seed treatment.

“The way genetics companies are stacking genes in the inside of their seeds, we are stacking our products on the outside.”

In South and Central America, the

company produces a variety of bio-logical products such as silage inocu-lants that sequester toxins as they pass through a ruminant’s gut and a fungal product that acts as a biologi-cal pesticide on locusts.

In golf, the company’s colourant division helps make the grass green-er and the water hazards blacker on many PGA courses.

The company also produces bene-ficial nematodes and bio-nemati-cides for the horticultural industry.

“We are interested in it, if it works and we can grow it,” said Innes.

“Biostacked products haven’t always been a success. Some that were released in the 1990s, not by us, didn’t work as well as some thought. We have to overcome that legacy by making sure all of our products work.… So we test, and test and trial and test again.”

Based in Ames, Iowa, the 30 year old company employs 470 people, 58 in Canada.

Manitoba producers might have caught a break from some of the bugs that have been threatening early seeded crops.

John Gavloski of Manitoba Agri-culture feels that the cooler, wetter conditions of the last two weeks will have slowed the appetites of flea beetles.

He said the weather might help young canola plants reach the three or four true leaf stage before the bugs can get back to dining, which will leave the plants enough leaf to continue on with rapid growth stages.

Seeding that took place a month ago will no longer have the protec-tion of seed treatments when it comes to flea beetles, so monitoring plants is important at this point.

Cutworms are present in high populations in the south, with corn fields near Niverville, Starbuck and Eden receiving insecticide applica-tions.

The pest is a night feeder, so control applications are most effective when done late in the day.

Wireworms are showing up in wheat crops near Crystal City and Cartwright, but Gavloski said dam-age reports have been lower than usual this year.

Diamondback moths are appear-ing in traps in southern and eastern regions, but weather and pest popu-lations will determine how larva numbers develop later in the year.

Aster leafhoppers are present in the region this year and are feeding on cereal sap.

The insect itself isn’t much of an issue, but it can be a serious disease vector for aster yellows in cereal, flax, sunflowers and canola.

They are the greatest threat to horti-cultural crops.

LACOMBE, Alta. — Researchers are evaluating an experimental pre-cision seed drill at Agriculture Cana-da’s research centre in Lacombe.

Craig Shaw, a canola producer from Lacombe, got the idea for the study and arranged for research grants to buy the experimental seed drill built by the Monosem seed drill company in Kansas.

The drills are originally designed for seeding small seeds such as carrots. They use a seed disc plate with tiny

holes, which individually catches the canola seed under a vacuum. As the disc rotates, the individual canola seed is dropped down the seed shoot for a predetermined seed placement.

The seeder has unique double disc openers and double packing wheels, which do not disturb the soil. The unit has worked well under wet soil conditions when tested at Lacombe.

Scientists Neil Harker and Larry Michielsen are evaluating the time of seed emergence, weed density and total crop yield and comparing it to conventional methods of seeding canola.

Saskatchewan’s new agriculture minister said last week he was a little concerned about filling his prede-cessor’s shoes.

Lyle Stewart, MLA for Thunder Creek, took over from Bob Bjornerud after the May 25 cabinet shuffle.

He immediately paid tribute to Bjornerud, noting his popularity within the agricultural community. Bjornerud had been the Saskatche-wan Party’s only agriculture minister since it took office in 2007.

“In my view he’s the best minister of agriculture that I ever recall in this province or any place,” Stewart said after he was sworn into pre-mier Brad Wall’s new 18-member cabinet.

“That’ll be part of my job, to live up to Bob’s reputation.”

Stewart brings a lifelong career in farming and ranching to the job. He and his son operate the family farm west of Pense, Sask.

However, he also has a long interest in politics, serving on the school

board and rural municipal council before he was first elected an MLA in 1999.

In opposition, he was an interim leader of the Saskatchewan Party and critic for agriculture and the economy.

He was minister for enterprise and innovation after the party formed government in 2007.

Stewart said one of the reasons he got into politics was to see more economic development in the province.

“I hope to be able to link economic development and agriculture a little more directly (now).”

He said research and value-added are key components of that goal, but added it is too early to be more spe-cific.

“I’m very excited about the role. Agriculture is my first love, of course.”

Stewart said Wall called him the afternoon of May 24 to offer him the portfolio.

While he and other cabinet hope-fuls spent an anxious day, Bjornerud relaxed, knowing a call wasn’t com-ing.

He had told Wall in March he didn’t want to be in the next cabinet. He will stay on as the MLA for Melville-Salt-coats.

“I’m comfortable with it,” he said of the decision.

Bjornerud said it’s a good time for someone new to take over the job.

Prices and optimism are strong and the tension in rural Saskatchewan that characterized his first days in cabinet has been letting up over the last while.

Drought was a key concern when he first walked into his office in 2007, and the livestock sector was asking for help because prices were so low.

The frustrating part of being in cabi-net was the lack of control over things like that, Bjornerud said. People turn to their governments when they are

up against the wall, he added.He said governments can help to a

degree, but they can’t solve all the problems.

“This is a better answer to all the concerns producers have — where the marketplace dictates that they’re getting a better return,” Bjornerud said.

Still, he is proud of government initiatives that made a difference to farmers, including the reduction of education tax on farmland, changes to crop insurance and moving the administration of AgriStability to the province.

“It hasn’t improved the program a whole bunch, but it’s improved the processing time,” he said.

Bjornerud said he wouldn’t offer Stewart advice lest it backfire.

However, he noted it’s a tough port-folio.

“It’s an experience I wouldn’t give up for anything,” he said.

“At times, I would like every farm-e r o r ra n c h e r t o h av e h a d t h e opportunity to be ag minister for a week. You get a whole new perspec-tive.”

Only two of 18 Saskatchewan cabi-net ministers retained their existing portfolios after premier Brad Wall announced a large-scale shuffle last week and reorganized ministries.

Seven people were dropped in the May 25 changes, seven were added and nine were moved to different ministries.

Among the changes are three ministries that now have two min-isters.

Kindersley MLA Bill Boyd will lead the new ministry of the economy. Wi t h i n t h a t , Ti m Mc Mi l l a n o f Lloydminster will be responsible for energy and resources, tourism and trade.

Wall said he considered adding agriculture to the ministry as well, but in the end decided it deserved its own focus.

The industry has always been key to the province but it’s importance eco-nomically has ebbed and flowed over time, he said.

“In a world that wants food security we have these prolific production numbers. We have an increasingly great reputation on the research and development side on agriculture, and I want to continue to capitalize on that.”

At the same time, Wall said he expects agriculture and economy officials to work together.

Weyburn-Big Muddy MLA and former environment minister Dustin Duncan moved to health, where he will be assisted by cabinet rookie Randy Weekes of Biggar. Weekes takes on responsibility for rural and

remote health.The justice ministry will also have

two ministers. Saskatoon MLA Gord Wyant takes over as justice minister and attorney general from city col-league Don Morgan. Within that ministry, Christine Tell, a former Regina police officer who has briefly s e r v e d i n c a b i n e t i n t h e p a s t , becomes minister of corrections and policing.

The two ministers who kept their jobs were finance minister and dep-uty premier Ken Krawetz from Canora-Pelly and social services minister June Draude from Kelving-ton-Wadena.

Other cabinet changes include:Don McMorris moves from health

to highways and takes on responsi-bility for a new government agency called SaskBuilds.

Former highways minister Jim Reiter goes from highways to govern-ment relations and First Nations, Metis and northern affairs.

Ken Cheveldayoff, who had been at First Nations, is now the environ-ment minister with responsibility for Saskatchewan Watershed Authority and SaskWater.

Morgan retained his labour portfo-lio but added advanced education.

Donna Harpauer moved from edu-cation to crown investments.

Rookie MLA Russ Marchuk is the new education minister, while another rookie, Kevin Doherty, takes on parks, culture and sport.

Returning to cabinet are Nancy Heppner as minister of central ser-vices and Lyle Stewart of Thunder Creek in agriculture.

The premier retained his responsi-bility for intergovernmental affairs.

THE CASE FOR OPEN HOUSING, SOW SELECTIONTemple Grandin answered questions about sow gestation stalls during her appearance in Brandon. The following is a sample of her thoughts on the topic:

“One thing I’m going to say, let’s not build any new gestation stall houses. I think that would be really stupid.”“You can’t go into things too fast but there is a point where these (pig) barns are going to rust out.”

» On open housing and pig genetics:

“If you have a pig that bites privates, you need to have a sow stall jail. She gets put in there and let her have her pigs. As soon as she’s weaned her pigs, she’s sausage.” “Then all of her pigs are going to go to Maple Leaf (slaughter plant)…. You want to get those mean genetics out of the gene pool.”“We are going to have to make sure we have the right genetics because there are some pigs that don’t play well with others.”

» On open housing systems:“People have asked me, what’s your favourite group housing system? I’ve backed off from discussing that because I want to let the industry have an opportunity to innovate.”“Things evolve. I’ve been in the equipment business for 35 years and equipment evolves. It never ceases to amaze me the things that people come up with.”


Her comment may have triggered a laugh, but Temple Grandin sincerely believes livestock producers should post videos of themselves on YouTube.

The renowned livestock handling expert, who spoke in Brandon May 23 as part of a book promotion tour, told an audience of 400 that the videos should provide simple, straightfor-ward images about raising livestock, such as feeding pigs or moving cattle.

Producers may think that sort of information is trivial, but urban resi-dents want to know how and why things are done on a farm.

For instance, Grandin, whose life story was featured in an award win-ning HBO movie, said her Hollywood friends have no idea why cattle are fed grain in feedlots.

“The general public is just curious … about how farmers do things,” she later told reporters.

“I looked on YouTube and I was surprised to find out that one of the top videos is a feed truck feeding cat-tle. That may seem common and ordinary to you, but for someone in New York City, that’s interesting.”

Grandin’s comments were prompt-ed by a question from James Hofer, hog barn manager for the Starlite Colony near Starbuck, Man., who wanted to know how producers

could connect with the public and make the case that hog farmers are diligent caretakers of livestock.

“I’m a pork producer. I’m certified. I’m qualified. I’m proud of what I do and I know why I’m doing it and I’m not afraid to show anybody how I’m doing it,” he said.

Grandin interrupted Hofer half way through his question and told him to take internet viewers on a tour of his farm, just as if he was showing the farm to relatives from Toronto.

“Why don’t you put up things like taking care of baby piglets, feeding

sows and how you do AI and why you do it,” said Grandin, who is equally famous for having autism and writ-ing numerous books on the topic.

“It needs to be explained in a real matter of fact way, but it does need to be explained…. But don’t get in there and do a lot of PR talk. It’s a lot better saying I’m a pork producer in Mani-toba … and let me show you some things on my farm.”

Following her speech, Hofer gave high marks to Grandin’s response, noting her answer was “bang on.”

He said producers may be reluctant

to participate in the online chatter about animal agriculture, but they no longer have a choice.

“For all the good things that social media can do, and all the bad things, there is no better tool,” said Hofer, who has never used social media.

“I think we have to use that vehi-cle…. Just show the people what you are doing. Keep it simple.”

Laura-Lee Harms, an animal health technologist and cattle rancher from Mather, Man., was also impressed by Grandin’s thoughts about YouTube.

“You see a lot of negative things (online) and I guess we should be more proactive in showing the positive (aspects) of our production,” she said.

“We need to show the public that we love doing what we do. We don’t just do it for money.”

Grandin said hog producers should also consider installing video cam-eras inside their barns.

For example, Cargill has cameras inside its slaughter plants that third party auditors watch randomly to monitor what is happening and rate how employees treat livestock.

If hog farmers want to open their operations to the public, video and third party auditing would certainly be a step in that direction, Grandin said.

“One of the things it would accom-plish is making sure that employees aren’t abusing pigs when nobody is watching.”

The top selling ram at the Pound Maker sale in Fort Macleod, Alta., May 24 went for $1,650, which delighted consignors Bert and Andrelei Grisnich.

It was bought by Paul Preston of Hays, Alta.

The sixth annual sale featured 106 head with an average price of $866. That’s better than last year’s sale average of $785 on 101 head, said consignor Warren Moore.

“Our heads are spinning because that is a good price on average,” said Moore, who farms east of Stavely, Alta.

Six breeds were on offer and some were progeny from artificial insemi-nation using British and New Zea-land semen.

“The reason for the AI was just to try it, for alternative bloodlines,” he said.

“The Suffolk bloodlines were from the U.K. and the Dorset was from New Zealand. People seemed to bid higher on them than they did on the regular bloodlines.”

Moore said he thinks prices for sheep and lambs will remain strong because demand continues to out-strip supply.

Many smaller producers got out of the business as prices dropped when the discovery of BSE in Canada closed borders for cattle and sheep. The bor-ders eventually reopened to sheep long after they reopened to cattle, Moore said, but the regulations proved so onerous that it isn’t economically feasible to obtain U.S. genetics.

However, he said most commercial sheep producers showed a profit per ewe last year, and even though prices have dropped since then, the busi-ness remains profitable.

“We have more people eating lamb

now than we ever did. The Muslims are big consumers of lamb and Cal-gary alone has 100,000 Muslims,” he said.

Consignors at the ram sale includ-ed Moore and his wife, Norine, the Grisnichs, who farm near Fort Macleod, Alta., Andy and Frances Pittman of Picture Butte, Alta., and Graham and Janice Rannie of Bins-carth, Man.

Sale averages by breed:• North Country Cheviot: eight head

sold for an average of $1,019• Suffolk: 65 head sold for an average

of $913• Dorset: nine head sold for an aver-

CYPRESS HILLS PARK, Sask. — Lyle Stewart used his first appear-ance as Saskatchewan’s new agricul-ture minister May 27 to announce $50,000 in funding for traceability projects.

Speaking to the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association annual convention, Stewart said the organi-zation would receive the money for two projects.

Half will go to a cattle tag retention

project, which is part of a national study observing beef herds in five provinces.

“There’s always issues with tags being lost, and so the $25,000 for the tag retention study is to find out once and for all, and inform producers how is the best way to tag and which tags have the best retention rate and so on,” Stewart told reporters after his speech.

SSGA president Harold Martens said the baseline data collected will improve traceability.

The SSGA will use the other half of

the money to increase awareness of the premise identification registry through the Canadian Cattle Identifi-cation Agency.

“It’s going to take some education to convince producers that they should be involved in it, and through stock growers is a good way to do that,” Stewart said.

The SSGA has been encouraging producers to register, but the process is voluntary. Stewart said it should remain that way.

The minister told the cattle produc-ers that he hadn’t had time to get up

to speed on all the issues in the three days since he had been appointed to the job.

However, he did say he planned to continue former minister Bob Bjornerud’s open door policy for credible organizations such as the SSGA.

He noted the significant contribu-tion that agriculture makes to the provincial economy.

Last year, the province exported more than $10 billion worth of agri-food products, surpassing Ontario for the first time ever to be the coun-

try’s top exporter in that category.“A g r i c u l t u r e h a s c e r t a i n l y

reclaimed its position as the second most important industry as far as contributing to the economy in the value of our (provincial) exports,” Stewart told the crowd.

“I think we have the potential to be first again. That’s what I’d like to see for this industry.”

He also listed among his priorities the need for agriculture to tell its sto-ry and educate urban people who don’t necessarily appreciate where their food comes from.

CYPRESS HILLS PARK, Sask. — Cattle price insurance based on the existing Alberta program is feasible in Western Canada but would require new products to make it work.

Iebeling Kaastra, research director with Gibson Capital Inc., told the Saskatchewan Stock Growers Asso-ciation annual convention that a study done by his company found that eight new products would have to be offered: three feeder, three calf and two hog components.

The products are needed to cover off regional disparity, he said.

The fed cattle product offered in Alberta would likely work for all because the market isn’t as volatile, he said.

Alberta launched its fed cattle insurance in September 2009, fol-lowed by feeder cattle a year later, a calf product in March 2011 and a hog insurance product in July 2011.

Producers can buy coverage for a particular price level per hundred-weight, to be paid during a certain period of time depending on the product.

Premiums vary widely, but are about $2 per cwt. at the top end of the price indices for all cattle prod-ucts.

Other provinces expressed interest in these programs, and the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association has said a national program is preferable so that producers are on a level playing field.

Kaastra described use of the pro-grams in Alberta as “fairly modest.” Total premiums paid are $6 to $7 mil-lion.

“We are seeing some payouts on fed cattle right now.”

He said cattle producers need some type of risk management because Canada doesn’t have a futures mar-ket for cattle and American markets aren’t working well.

Prices and optimism are strong right now, which likely account for the modest participation in Alberta.

“People are very bullish and they don’t see the risk until it happens,” Kaastra said.

Most of the auction markets in Western Canada use the same com-puter systems and can contribute the price information required to make the program work.

“Auction market participation is critical to the feeder program,” he said.

A Saskatchewan agriculture min-istry official said the province is now considering its next steps. No decisions have been made, but the program will be part of Growing Forward 2 discussions later this summer.

New agriculture minister Lyle Stewart said he hadn’t yet been briefed on the issue but hoped prod-ucts could be offered for Saskatche-wan producers.

Kaastra said there are still things to work out.

For example, Alberta producers pay the entire premium cost, which differs from provincial crop insur-ance programs where the federal and provincial governments share the premiums.

He said Alberta Financial Servic-es Corp. could offer its administra-tive services to other provinces to keep costs down. A larger program also brings significant benefits to premium consistency for produc-ers.

Manitoba’s livestock industry would have had an independent voice to deal with public concerns about livestock transport accidents if the Manitoba Farm Animal Council still existed, says the council’s former executive director.

Two trailers transporting hogs rolled over in Manitoba in the last month, one west of Brandon May 8 and another near Manitou May 24. According to witnesses at the scene of the accident on the Trans-Canada Highway near Brandon, dozens of hogs died and many others suffered broken bones when the truck rolled into a median.

A number of hogs died in a crash near Manitou when the driver of the semi-trailer lost control. The truck rolled into a ditch on Highway 244.

Shanyn Silinski, who farms near La Broquerie, Man., said these kinds of accidents are bound to happen because thousands of hogs are transported on Manitoba roads

each day.However, the average meat con-

sumer in Manitoba knows little about accident prevention or response to livestock incidents because the farm animal council isn’t around to pro-vide the information.

“You have commodity groups or organizations that serve commodi-ties like trucking companies, that are afraid of … a change in public image or afraid of the media,” said Silinski, who ran MFAC before it disbanded in 2010.

“The only thing the public knows is that trailers rolled over. Whether they are cows hitting a train by Brandon or hogs rolling over, they (the public) don’t know any of the things going on because no one tells them.”

Silinski said MFAC advocated for farm animals on issues such as trans-port and welfare in barns.

“We have lost a voice for farm ani-

mals in the province,” she said.“The national farm animal council

doesn’t deal with these types of local issues.”

The MFAC board decided to dis-band the council in May 2010 after commodity groups, which funded the organization, concluded they could do a better job of encouraging and promoting animal welfare prac-tices on their own.

After MFAC’s demise, the Manitoba Pork Council hired its own animal care specialist to deal with pig wel-fare issues.

It was useful to have a quasi-inde-pendent body advocating for farm animals, but it’s unlikely a new ver-sion of MFAC will emerge anytime soon, said Cam Dahl, general man-ager of Manitoba Beef Producers.

“The first iteration of that in Mani-toba didn’t have a happy ending. I don’t know all the details… (but) I

think some of those wounds are still a little too fresh to talk about reviving the farm animal council.”

Nonetheless, Silinski said she hopes livestock producers in Mani-toba come together to develop a new form of a farm animal council. Ideal-ly, livestock commodity groups would have a say but wouldn’t con-trol the council because a measure of independence is critical for public credibility, she said.

“I really don’t have a voice that can speak up, you have no way to get people to listen to you.”

In the meantime, Silinski is devel-oping a smart phone and tablet application to assist police and other first responders who arrive at a live-stock transport accident.

The application would serve as a how-to for first responders, answer-ing questions on how to deal with pigs, cattle, sheep and chickens at the scene or before officers arrive at an accident.

“So they could make a decision about what needed to be done or what resources needed to be called,” said Silinski, who has shown a mock-up of the app to police officers.

“There was a lot of interest on their part because most of them don’t get that information until they’re knee deep in it.”

An efficient and practical breeding system might not be an attractive one, says Eric Weisbeck.

“Is he crippled or is he tired? At the end of the breeding system, the bulls should look like rags,” said Weisbeck, a community pasture manager in Saskatchewan. “A good rooster is a skinny one.”

As manager of the federal Wolver-ine pasture, Weisbeck has watched over a system that’s seen better-than-average results.

The average age of bulls culled across the federal government’s 85 community pastures is 4.5 years, but Weisbeck’s pasture near Lanigan, Sask., achieves an average age of 7.5.

“That’s nothing that we tried to do,” he told the Farm Animal Council of Saskatchewan’s recent stock per-son’s school in Saskatoon. “It just happened.”

Each bull in Wolverine’s battery is evaluated for breeding soundness in the spring and examined for various fertility factors. However, Weisbeck’s only concern is live semen.

“I don’t need a veterinarian or pro-fessional to tell me that the bull has a scab from frostbite on his scrotum,” he said.

Other factors, such as scrotal cir-cumference, aren’t as big of a con-cern for a bull that’s already in the system.

“Age is almost never a sole reason that we would can a bull, and if it is, we’d can them in the fall,” he said.

He told producers they shouldn’t be too concerned about the animal’s look as new bulls come into the pas-ture from sales.

“The five-year-olds that you already have in the system with shaggy haired coats used be a shiny two-year-old, too,” he said. “They’ll do the job just as well.”

He said an efficient breeding pro-gram begins by training new bulls. Don’t assume new bulls have seen s o m e o n e o n h o r s e b a c k . A l s o, remember that a bull learns from the release of pressure rather than from pressure.

“If every time those bulls see you, you’re poking them with something sharp, you’re not going to have a calm critter there,” he said.

New bulls are kept separate from the older animals at Wolverine until they enter the field.

“It’s too much for them to try and fight off the old bulls.”

After branding, Weisbeck mixes them in with the oldest and the youngest animals. The change upsets the pecking order.

“We don’t group up age groups at all,” he said. “I want them completely mixed. A four-year-old bull is never going to fight with a yearling or vice versa.”

He said it’s vital that producers communicate with the pasture’s other patrons so that everyone has the same understanding of breeds and conception rates.

THE WESTERN PRODUCER | WWW.PRODUCER.COM | MAY 31, 2012 83LIVESTOCK

I am sure most producers over the years have had calves develop a throat infection.

These calves have extremely loud breathing that can be heard across the pen. They generally have extend-ed neck breathing and are in various forms of respiratory distress.

This is generally due to an infection of the throat or larynx area caused by the same bacteria that often causes foot rot. The initiating cause is usu-ally an abrasion to the throat caused by rough feed or an oral ulcer.

This is why we seldom see out-breaks of this infection. Sporadic cases are the norm and can occur in young calves to 18-month-old cattle in the feedlot.

Younger cattle have a soft oral lin-ing and are most susceptible to these abrasions.

The oral ulcerative lesion might

have started from the calf ’s sharp teeth inadvertently biting the insides of their cheeks.

The bacteria gains entry and over time forms an abscess around the laryngeal cartilages. This, combined with the surrounding swelling, sig-nificantly reduces the respiratory passage, which leads to a whistle-like sound when the calf breathes.

Veterinarians have varied treat-ment over the years, depending on what they find most effective.

Blood supply is limited because the larynx is mostly cartilage, which makes it difficult to get antibiotics to the site of the infection.

Potentiated sulphonamides, peni-cillin and, more recently, drugs such as macrolides (Draxxin) and fluor-amphenicol (Nuflor) have been tried. Ask a veterinarian for advice on what drugs have worked the best and for what length of time.

Veterinarians will often recom-mend either a steroid such as dexa-methasone or a NSAID (non-steroi-dal anti-inflammatory drug) such as banamine or metacam. These are prescription drugs, so the herd vet-erinarian must be involved.

Response is favourable if caught early and treated aggressively. I have often found that producers notice the problem quick enough but stop treatment too early and a relapse occurs.

I continue treatment for 10 to12 days, even if clinical signs have sub-sided substantially. The steroids or NSAIDs are stopped after a few days,

If my first two marathons were my response to an early mid-life cri-sis, then this marathon I’m about

to run at the age of 41 would be a more typically timed mid-life indul-gence.

Granted, a mid-life marathon is a lot cheaper than a hot little sports car; more family friendly than a divorce and a girlfriend half my age; and healthier than most any other physi-cal, mental or chemical addiction you can name.

When you read this column, the race will have been run, and I’ll have hopefully completed my third go round with the crazy idea of running 26.2 miles on my own two feet.

I’ll have been one of the finishers of the Fargo Marathon on their flat, fast course, as they call it. It’ll most cer-tainly be flat, laid out on the level of the Red River Valley, but I’m not sure how fast it’ll be for me, no matter how flat.

I got in some training this winter — not a lot, but a passable number of regular short and long runs on the gravel roads of Gorman and Smokey Lake townships. Training was easy enough this winter with so little snow and pretty mild temperatures, rela-tively speaking.

As they say, “this ain’t my first rodeo,” or in this case, my first mara-thon.

After running the Chicago and New York City marathons 11 and 12 years ago, I took a little time off from run-ning to get married and get our three children through diapers and tod-dlerhood.

With our youngest turning four this summer, it seemed like it was time to lace the tennis shoes back up.

I don’t remember being quite so

sore back in 2001. Maybe I had better tennis shoes back then. Or better ankles, knees, tendons, muscles, lungs and other assorted pieces and parts that propel.

Writing this one day ahead of the big race, I’m about as ready as I’m going to be. Mentally, I feel motivated by the marathon story of Pheidip-pides, the Greek messenger who ran 26 miles, 385 yards from the Battle of Marathon to tell the folks in Athens that they had just defeated the Per-sians.

It’s a great running story except for the fact that the fleet footed Pheidip-pides collapsed and died after his run. Maybe that’s not quite the inspi-ration I need.

Physically, another old Greek story might tell the tale: the story of Achil-les, handsome hero of the Trojan war. As a warrior, he was said to be invul-nerable except for that one little, bitty spot on his heel. I’ve been nursing my Achilles tendon since a little wreck I had with a ladder. No, I wasn’t scaling the gates of Troy with the faulty lad-der — just building the kids a tree house.

One runner, dead from exhaustion, or a warrior, killed by one small weak-ness — the Greeks had good stories, but they were pretty darn depressing. Real bummers if you’re looking for positive inspiration.

Being the Fargo Marathon is in the heart of Norwegian immigrant coun-try, and the race is just two days after Syttende mai, Norway’s Constitution Day, I should forget the Greeks and find an inspirational tale of Norwe-gian endurance to carry me through the day.

How about this, a new Norwegian folk tale. There once was a middle aged Norwegian runner with an Irish first name and an English last name, but really, he was Norsk, a Halling and a Gudbrandsdaler.

He entered the Fargo Marathon knowing he would have many kinfolk from the fjords of his homeland cheering him on. He didn’t collapse, he didn’t rupture his Achilles.

He finished and ate a big steak. The end.

We’ll see if that new Nordic tale is retold around the campfires 1,000 years from now.

It’s easier knowing that the reward for 26.2 miles of muscle aches and pains, is a juicy steak

but the antibiotics are kept on board for the duration.

An emergency tracheotomy and laryngeal surgery can be tried in chronic cases or those unresolvable with drugs. The procedure peels out the abscess and re-establishes the wind passage’s proper diameter.

These cases carry a guarded prog-nosis but doing nothing is also grave. The air restriction can become so bad that the calf’s eyes seem bugged out from straining to breath.

There is only one other condition I know of that mimics necrotic laryn-gitis. Large calves that are born back-ward and have a hard pull may break ribs, which may cause a restriction on the windpipe and the same clini-cal signs.

A tracheotomy may provide tem-porary relief, but the actual problem cannot be corrected.

Try not to wait too long before initi-ating treatment in these calf diphthe-ria cases, and remember to finish the course of antibiotics your veterinari-an recommends.

Laryngeal surgery can be done as a salvage operation, but most cases will clear up with good sound medi-cal treatment. A few calves will recover but still have a distinctive whistle, especially when they run a bit. This will be permanent, but they still will do well in the feedlot.

Calves have softer oral linings and are susceptible to mouth abrasions, which may lead to throat infections. | MIKE STURK PHOTO

Of the millions of Saskatchewan acres seeded to pulses this year, a small portion of the harvested crop will stay at home and be turned into pet food.

It’s not a huge market for growers, but with North American consumers spending billions of dollars a year to feed their furry housemates, it’s one that has caught the attention of Sask-atchewan Pulse Growers.

In addition to the varietal develop-ment and agronomic research that the association normally funds, it has also funnelled more than $70,000 into a project at the University of Saskatch-ewan’s Western College of Veterinary Medicine to examine the possible health benefits of pulses for pets.

“We always want to explore new markets,” said Crystal Chan, research project manager with the SPG. “So we have to demonstrate that there are different uses in pulses other than food for ethnic populations.”

SPG is also working closely with Horizon Pet Nutrition of Rosthern, Sask., which manufactures pet food that is formulated from, among other things, Saskatchewan-grown red lentils and peas.

The young company has increased its production 20-fold in just six years, and it will be looking to Sask-atchewan producers for increased supply as it continues to grow, said president Jeff English.

When first launched, Horizon mar-keted a line of dog and cat food with whole grain barley, oats and rye. It

has since expanded to include grain-free formulations, which is where pulse crops come into play.

The company looks to source ingre-dients first within Saskatchewan and then within Canada before looking outside the country, English said.

Some ingredients, such as vitamin supplements, aren’t easily found locally, but 90 percent of Horizon’s formulas by weight and volume are made with Saskatchewan-grown products, including meats, eggs, fruit and vegetables.

Horizon’s rural location has been advantageous not only because of lower land costs but also because of its proximity to where many of its ingredients are grown, which saves on shipping costs. English said this is a major part of how the company

markets itself in specialty pet stores across North America.

“Certainly into the U.S. market and other export markets that we’re look-ing at, I think the idea that you’re sourcing and producing out of Cana-dian agriculture is viewed very, very positively,” English said.

The pulse growers association con-tinues to be interested in research that shows pulses are a positive source of pet nutrition.

Chan said a report on U of S research that looks at weight loss in dogs fed the pulse-based formula is due soon.

“I don’t think there’s anyone else other than Horizon pet food that’s con-sidering incorporating pulses in dog food and we don’t think that the size of the market would be huge right away, but it certainly has a lot of potential.”

TAXATION | VEHICLE RULES

When is a pick-up truck not considered a truck?

Grant Diamond is a tax analyst in Kelowna, B.C. with FBC, a company that specializes in farm tax. Contact: [email protected] or 800-265-1002.

The Canada Revenue Agency draws a distinction between passenger and work vehicles

Extended cab pick-up trucks are often seen on farms . However, while the extra passenger

space is useful, most farmers would tell you their truck is first and fore-most a working vehicle.

The Canada Revenue Agency has tended to disagree and has chal-lenged and reassessed individuals for claims relating to a pick-up truck with extended cab.

The challenge is based on the Income Tax Act’s definition of a pick-up truck as a vehicle with seating for one to three people, including driver. A pick-up truck with extended cab and seating for four to nine people is classified as a passenger vehicle.

Classifying extended cab trucks as passenger vehicles severely limits the capital cost allowance (CCA), GST input tax credit (ITC) and lease and interest costs that may be claimed for tax purposes.

However, a pick-up truck with extended cab that is used “all or sub-stantially all” to transport goods, equipment or passengers can be classified as a motor vehicle. CRA typically interprets “all or substan-tially all” to mean it’s used 90 percent or more for business.

To support this, a comprehensive log of vehicle use is usually required.

Another exception for a pick-up truck with extended cab is if it’s used more than 50 percent for the trans-portation of goods, equipment or passengers at work sites at least 30 kilometres from the nearest urban centre having a population of 40,000. It would then be considered a motor vehicle rather than a passenger vehicle.

In one case, two farmers operating a corporate farm were able to provide detailed, but still general, data about their use of two corporate-owned extended cab trucks.

The trucks were used to haul grain samples to elevators for grading and pricing and also great distances to obtain replacement parts for equip-ment.

The judge found their presentation credible enough to stand without a log and they were entitled to have their standby charges reduced accordingly.

However, the judge affirmed that the trucks were properly classified as automobiles. In an earlier decision, another judge had ruled the trucks to be motor vehicles.

The judge who found the non-log supported case to be credible also agreed with a previous judgment that CRA’s interpretation of “all or sub-stantially all” to mean in excess of 90 percent might be too limiting.

Both of these judges found that 80 percent, and perhaps even less, might meet the test, leaving another avenue of appeal for vehicle owners to contest CRA reassessments.

Generally, a detailed log book of vehicle use is the best way to prove your case, both with CRA and the tax court.

When it comes time to sell, you should collect GST/HST for motor vehicles used more than 50 percent for commercial activities. You don’t need to collect GST/HST if used 50 percent or less for commercial activi-ties.

No GST/HST is collected on the sale of corporate-owned pick-up trucks classified as passenger vehi-cles if the commercial activity was 50 percent or less.

For anything greater than 50 per-cent, the corporation must collect GST/HST on the full sale price of the truck.

For individually owned vehicles, no GST/HST is collected on the sale of the truck if the commercial activity was less than 90 percent.

For 90 percent or more, you must collect GST/HST on the full sale price of the truck.

DEALER FIRM BOOSTS PROFIT

Cervus Equipment Corp. posted a profit of $1.4 million in the first quar-ter, an increase of $1.6 million over the loss posted in the same quarter a year ago.

The farm equipment retailer had revenue of $ 109.8 million, up $25.5 million from last year.

President Graham Drake said in a news release the improvement was driven by greater consumer confi-dence and higher commodity prices in agriculture and the energy sector.

Revenues in the agricultural equip-ment segment rose by 29.7 percent, and the commercial and industrial equip-ment segment increased 31.4 percent.

“We believe these trends will con-tinue well into 2012, and along with

healthy indicators of expansion in the oil and gas industry, expect healthy unit sales in both of our oper-ating segments this year,” said Drake.

SEED GROWERS REACH DEAL

SeedNet Inc. has reached an agree-ment with Saskcan Pulse Trading to act as Saskcan’s agent in Alberta.

SeedNet was formed in 2010 by 14 independent seed growers in Alberta that each had 15 to 50 years experience.

The agreement includes multiply-ing and distributing seed for Saskcan.

SeedNet will also now be able to sign production contracts on behalf of Saskcan with growers in Alberta.

SeedNet collectively controls 50,000 acres eligible for seed produc-tion with grain storage in excess of two million bushels.

SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A new loan program could help established Alberta producers become bigger.

ATB Financial announced a new $100 million business growth fund last week with the strength of the western Canadian economy in mind.

“Essentially these are stretch work-ing capital loans,” said Wellington Holbrook, ATB’s executive vice-presi-dent for business and agriculture.

The program is intended to support established “high-growth” business-es considering new acquisitions, expansions or management buyouts.

“It wasn’t specifically designed for ag, but it’s certainly applicable to ag

entities,” said Holbrook.He said the fund is designed to help

mid-sized businesses make these kinds of purchases without depleting their working capital when they’ve exhaust-ed traditional forms of financing.

Loans of up to $1 million are avail-able for owner-occupied real estate, machinery and equipment pur-chases.

ZURICH, Switzerland (Reuters) — Syngenta has agreed to pay $105 mil-lion to settle an eight-year legal wrangle in the United States related to one of its herbicides.

The case concerned the herbicide atrazine that had entered the water

systems of Midwest U.S. communities.Syngenta denied liability.“The product is already highly reg-

ulated under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and this settle-ment does not change the safety evaluation of the product,” spokes-

person Sarah Hull said.The U.S. National Corn Growers

Association saw the case against Syn-genta as a nuisance lawsuit, noting in a news release that it is important that the case was resolved with an acknowl-edgement of the safety of atrazine.
