In our local area of eastern Sask, last ten years has seen significant shift of acres from grass and forage into straight grain farming.
Do not see these acres going back into grass without some kind of cattle market shift to provide incentive.
Do not see any major government policy shifts coming like end of Crow rate and subsidy that helped convince many of us to stay in cattle.
See lots of complaining about grain transportation and handling at present but does not seem to have increased optimism for cattle.
Are there areas where cattle numbers are increasing?
