land prices

Right but when that happens with the basis, your specialty crops will need a better bid to get them.

As I have said to different people, the re-balancing of acres and contracting will be some of the most exciting things in the coming year. It will keep people more in tune with prices and farming. All good things.

Mustard, the rail watchdog? Is this a joke, sarcasm, or are you just that uninformed?

Jim Dimwhit is gonna look at rail rates,
fer Albertie. Ifn he gets a chance
cousin he's soo busy wit other impotent
issues in the Province. Dimwhit will
save the day fer Albertie cousin he's a
Conservative and open fer business er
not. Probably the rail rate'll go up,
up up cousin good grain prices witcher
on the way er so we's told!! Buyers'll
pay the freight in sum cases, I been
told by marketeers on Angriville, ya
think!

It's not going to make a difference at the end of the day. I'm pretty sure no one is going to run out and price wheat to buy prairie wheat acres. The price will go up and down just like all the other years it will just happen faster and more frequently. And Mustard if you've ever tried to ship anything by rail you'd know that wheat is already the most expensive, oats the least and canola falls somewhere in the middle, where was your beloved lap dog, ahem I mean watch dog, on that one?

Wd9 -The rates Will be going up and when they do remember that 'we told you so'

Mustard. What about the $15 elevation fees,
cleaning fees? You talk about freight but these
other costs will all go down. Why is it that
deductions in Shelby Montana where there is only
one railroad as WAY lower total deductions then
CWB grains. Total deductions there are just over
$1-1.10 a bushel. What do you pay now for
deductions $1.55.

$1.75 in Wadena. Who would tell us Canola costs? Does the cost in Montana vary between grains?
