That's an easy one. Don't get caught up in that environmental farm plan crap. Your future hands are going to be so tied up meeting farm police rules for the small pittance in signing on, my guess is you will be sorry your plan wasn't initiated with your own funds.

We've used several for vapour barrier in buildings. The neighbour's, organic included, couldn't get enough of them for covering materials, and equipment that had no winter storage buildings. Those things have many second life uses. Fold them up, and stack them in one of your grandaddy's wooden bins.

Big pile in our dump and burn. Sorry MR environment but it cleans the garbage pit up in one nice fire. But have two neighbors that take them for shed lining, silage pit covers and one guy put on ground and then covered his oats with them. But I also agree if you need just 10000 storage go buy a dam bin. But if you need 240000 or more use them. Also watch them don't just drive buy and say their OK its a bin of your grain. GEE.

No one has any left.

SF3, you do realize that the price has been going down, right?

1.8 million dollars sitting around devaluing. Interesting.

Yes, we realize it may not have been the best choice at this point. I have never claimed to be a marketing expert. Our cash position has always been strong and therefore possibly not selling when the time is right. Works on one hand, lose some on the other, probably averages out at the end.

We have typically sell most of the canola crop through the May-Aug timeframe. A couple of years ago it worked well when a good portion went out between $15-16. I guess that high may average a low now.

Something smells stinky here and it ain't Canola!!
