September WASDE

[boarderbloke]

charliep, regarding meal, supply and use are projected to be very stable, hence there'll be plenty of by product(soya oil) to keep the veggie oil flooded. That's what "someone" has been telling me ALL year, even when meal hit a 2 1/2 year low in June '14.

Farmers,,,get use to canola with an 8 out front!

Large acre renters are going to get a beactch slap, like they haven't seen in some time.

Per acre return is going to take a bit of a hit on this farm. I'll be spending wisely and not going to give up a bunch of accumulated equity and risk it. Time for an input price adjustment to reflect today's commodity prices and quality, and this coming marketing season's reality. Im getting to that age I hate risking it and what is already mine.....

Richard your probably banding at .48 for ammonia what if the spring price is 41 do to USA farmers not growing high use nitrogen crop corn! $1,99 corn is not really profitable at 200 bus a acre.
Good for you but thinking what's happened in the past two years can continue with just a little blip!
Ha ha! We are going one way and it's not up!
Good on you to Fert in fall good luck glad you had so many bumpers that price doesn't effect your farm!
It's just a observation why spend money on products that seemed to double on way up but won't even drop as we go lowere!
Just a observation and don't believe AgriStability will help farmers out in canada!

Sick of the games. Sick of the thievery. Sick of the weather. Sick of being a parasite host. **** farming. I'm out..

[Digger]

Does it really matter what line of "bullshit" the industry gurus are shoving down your throat or want you to believe? Buy, buy, buy or sell, sell, sell.

The price is always going higher. Production is always lower than what "they" say.

Why can't we make a decision and live with it. Form your own opinion, plan accordingly and execute.

Boarder this is where farming gets real fun! Any one can farm in good times but like I said last summer when the boom ended now we see what were made of ! Good luck to all !

Facts as i remember them,feel free to change.

Total number of humans per square mile of land in the world=129

Total amount of ag land in the world=33%

200 acres feeding 129 people

All markets are manipulated

Cheap food policy is a real policy

There is life after farming. Mothernature jerked me around enough times too. I made the decision to rent out the dirt last fall and thus far have not regretted it. Biggest thing to get used to is not having 10 payments to keep up with. Would have been nice to see the $1000 for 350 lb calves but for me that would have meant another year of buying feed. My land renter had a very dry year and will be lucky to break even.

42 cents, not much different than spring

but the price is going up

[SASKFARMER3]

Easiest way to keep people from fighting is a fill stomach

[SASKFARMER3]

For Amonia ?

[Richard5]

yes, delivery is extra, negotiated that price a bit ago, and only on the amount I get applied which is the same as any other year I put some down. Did about 75% acres last year and that was the first time for about 4 years that I applied fall NH3.

Again, made the decision as it meets what I feel is right for me. Totally understand others may not have the option.

Not buying anything else as I agree with your comments on seed, chem and equipment.

Land is wet, need to work it some and hope this helps

[Hopperbin]

Sask3 at what price did you get your ammonia tanks filled. Mine not filled yet so kinda wondering maybe price still under pressure. Cannot immagine price of n going up. Like you said the price of corn determines the price of n. Somewhat.

[Hamloc]

Talked to my canola seed supplier the other day small independant good guy. What he told me amazed me it looks to him like the big companies plan to increase their canola seed price a point or two. The price of canola is 60% of a few years ago but they keep pushing up the price beyond my comprehension I hope farmers tell them to go to hell!!

I found fall nh3 not as effective as spring. Lower yield and protein. Bump your fall rate up to compensate.
