Canola Discussion

[Hopperbin]

Agree freewheat and many farmers in canola country here have seen what can happen just this last year. Many 10 bushel crops by the look of them. 10 times 10 is 100. Now pay for expenses. It gets ugly.

Charlie asked what price for canola based on today's land price.... $15.00/bushel would be closer to justifying land prices than $9.50. At $9.50 you have to do a lot of lying to yourself it's gonna even come close to break even.

i know areas are different than here.
but a 40 something yield i would take every year.

30-34 would be closer to average.
at those yields at $9.00 you did a lot of work for nothing .

rent is now based on 12-14, fert
same thing.
and seed costs based on a 80 bushel crop somewhere.
we are now at the price levels
where a poor crop can result in 100s of thousands in losses in one year.

and all the crooks are are paid upfront. we are all in.
to sign up for 10$ canola is asking for a crop failure.

SF3, All your canola go to Yorkton? $pecialty or geriatric? What are the current crusher bids there.

[SASKFARMER3]

They had a special the week of Manitoba Ag Days.
With the seed incentive it works out real nice. So yes a major portion always goes at this time of year.
I have to truck it to Yorkton. Ah farming. But Yorkton is 93Km away.
