canola pricing

[cottonpicken]

Today was an across the board up day,no amount of supply/demand number crunching can explain it.

Whats the paper trade compared to the physical trade,20x maybe?Have looked hard but have never been able to find it.

Hauled grain to vitera moosejaw all last week,drove right up to the squack box almost every load. No 1/2 mile line ups like normaly this time of year.Sask ag says we are 70% done harvest.Now either guys are so rich they have locked the bin doors or the big crop sask ag and others were forcasting is not out there.I think I know were the truth lies.

What were they taking in moose jaw last week?

Last time I was there it was an 1 1/2 hour wait.

There are lots of shiny snow fences been built in the last 6 months.

Guys like storage. And graincos love it because they save themselves a shit load of money when farmers build for one turn every 2 years.

They know where it is, why bid for it?

Just ask the cwb. They have been asked about condo space. Cheaper for farmers to build it they say even if farmers are paying for it either way.

No doubt they are, read my reply in your thread.

I maybe articulated it wrong.

They are building new elevators. State of the art. 134 car loop track to cater to the railways. 42000 tonnes. Single lane driveway that doesn't cater to farmers or truckers other than no moving the super Bs.

They should have storage for 4 trains properly scheduled. Don't know what happens in a year like this.

I asked if they would consider condo storage in any form and the answer was no. How about 2 lanes - no.

Your right it's all good.

Now go look at a potash plant logistics and see if they are building a state of the art grain plant for 24/7 operating or just something a 30 year veteran of the grain industry said will work.

The dumb****led farmer

Really, 40k storage in todays world isnt that much especially when you have single farmers producing 20-30,000 tonnes per year. Dont understand why they dont add more storage, would be a benefit for blending and perhaps give them more options on grade discounts if grades can be improved at their facility.

That's what I was thinking and what's better than getting farmers to pay to build it as condo space?
