Hows your "F - - KING" Day going!

[rookie]

Someone please notify a psychology department somewhere .... this is something that reminds me of what you would have seen on a school bus out in the prairies 30 years ago ...

Klause.... thumbs up for standing your ground like a man ....

( that should piss a few kids off.....)

[riders2010]

Work in the hog barn do we? Kraus doesn't stand for anything except let's be happy when we get pissed on.

[SASKFARMER3]

Hey the Bible according to Klaus. God man and you must have walked to school 12 miles every day through 5 ft snow drifts. Oh wait you came from Argentina. AH Evita.............
Klaus ask your self one simple question. If all us farmers just sat their and said nothing. I mean all farmers do you honestly think their would have been one single dollar delivered for the flood damage this spring. Or the media would have given a rats ass about the flooding.
Second on the CWB if you think for one second the Internet has not had a huge effect on the CWB man your smoking something. They are under constant pressure. Simply buy even having elections and guys like wells running by showing what these kind of guys really represent farmers can make up their own minds to vote or not vote. Its new media.
Third bitching about grading gets guys to think every single time they go into an elevator and the little ps ant behind the counter is giving them grief.
Fourth you think VIGRA OR RICHARDSON ARE YOUR FRIENDS>
Five nice pictures but if you rented the grassland from the Farmer and then paid him, but didn't seed it how well did you do on that financial deal. Or did you pay that farmer nothing for using his land. Did you skin him and take the 30 dollars or did you share the no seeding lets see who you really are. Or did you rent it so you have somewhere to walk and think about how nice it is. Hawaii trust me is way more nice.
ON AN ON AND ON>
I m not negative its just things happening that effect my bottom line and every other farmers bottom line every day sitting in a circle and holding hands and singing might make you feel good but information is what gets you the money.
You have some points on being positive. Hell you think were all not positive other wise why do what we do, but when something is effecting farmers or hurting farmers phoning the Govt stress line wont help at least this is a place to go.

Rider are you saying he works for the Hog barn up their that ripped ripped ripped farmers off for millions of dollars and is one of Saskatchewan's top companies. END OF CONVERSATION!

[Klause]

My God. You two really are a piece of work.


Saskfarmer - I took $30/ac on the fields that got seeded and flooded, and on the land we already had, was ready to
seed, and did not seed.

The 320ac we picked up this July, we did not ask any $$$ on. My landlords got 33% of the annual rent this year
paid in cash on signing. On another quarter that we picked up this spring before seeding, which was hayland also
we paid 50% of the rent, even though all that I could get in to do was spray it with R'UP.

I have much experience with internet marketing... I'll tell you one thing, a couple guys on here bitching and
whining doesn't make a damn of a difference to the CWB... why? Because in the eyes of anyone who actually runs a
business or has biz. experience, you guys sound like children. You want to take on the CWB, then do it step by
step, law for law, action for action. Write competent letters, publish them in newspapers, journals - online
communities - news agencies.

You want to know how to get rid of the CWB? Take the message to the streets. If the general public comes behind
you on it, it WILL be done. I don't know if you've noticed this, but the general public of Canada is pissed at
farmers running around in new pickups, having all-new equipment, whining about needing money, while they go to the
grocery store and see the price of food go UP UP UP. Has any one of you big-mouths ever thought of that? Or can
any of you actually stand up in front of consumers and explain how, why, and what we do, and WHY and WHO is making
so much from the food they have to buy? No.

You want to know about grading... I LOVE giving my elevators a run for their money... don't believe me, read this:

I know the grading guide for every grain. My samples do not get graded without me present, and I call whoever
screws up. I challenged Viagra wit ha barley sample, and got the grade I wanted.

We switched from Viterra to Cargil this spring... Cargil's rep still getting the hang of dealing with me. She has
to do the fertility plans, cost plans, arrange the trucking, do the grid sampling, yadayadayada for 95% of
farmers. I have my own plans, come up with my own prescriptions, use chem rates based on the label, not spraying
the highest, and not screwing around with unregistered concoctions. I ask for prices a unit not an acre. I haul my
own grain by semi - after taking the sample to a half dozen elevators - to the one with the best price... I find a
backhaul on almost every load to pay for the trucking costs. I DO NOT sell to un-bonded grain companies, or any
feedlots period.

Did all the bellowing get the $30/ac payment? Hmm.. Well, not the stuff on Agriville, but yes being vocal to your
MPs, and getting most people in western Canada behind you helped.


Now, riders2010 - please do me a favor and next time you post, break up your text into paragraphs. It makes things
much easier to read.

Finally, saskfarmer - Nothing was built in a day. I worked hard as hell to get to where I am, and will work even
harder if that's what it takes to achieve my goals. There is no farm in western Canada that wasn't built with
blood and sweat.

Peace.

[DogPatch]

Don't go painting all the hog barns / hog farmers with the same Blue Sky colored brush....... many of them are still going to buy our off grade lentils, peas, barley and feed wht this year. AND from what I have seen, even when their hogs were in the tank, the local farmers were still getting better than CWB or even elevator prices for their grain.

Most of the feed mills were also making hog feed for hog farmer customers and they were paying proper prices for what they bought. Boo Hoo that they aren't going to pay #1 wheat prices this year but neither will the elevators, they NEVER have.

[riders2010]

Your right about that Dog patch, in fact lots sold so called feed wheat for more than cwb prices of graded wheat many years, there are many good operations in the hog industry.

Klause does not work for a hog barn. You dummies go making accusations without any credible information which just makes you lose even more credibility. You guys rant and rave while Klause comes back with level headed arguments and I can sense the frustration growing with every post since he does not stoop to your level.

If you guys actually did some research and viewed some other forums with an open mind you would know who Klause is, how hard he works and the situation he is in. He has worked for everything he has and is not spoiled. He does not need me to defend him but you idiots just keep on blindly arguing which, I am ashamed to say, is exactly what the CWB supporters do. That's about as close as you guys will come to being compared to CWB supporters but if the shoe fits....
