Thanks Parsley,you`re too polite!Anxious to see what Jenny writes....Controllers, given the airspace, are just that.But put them in another world and they have difficulty adjusting!Probably good that they are/can control only one small kingdom!

Ah, Jensend I cannot voluntarily contain my question:
Does your wife softly whisper your written words in your willing ear?
"i was always trying to sell product to mostly lower income countries"
To which countries did you personally try to sell product? Was it wheat or lentils or er, hemp?
I would hope you would think it would be a good thing if my foreign buyers could buy $25.00 barley. Would you like that, also? Or would you think it too high, and barter it down?

Also with higher grain prices are going to come higher fert/chem prices. Sure we will make some money this year but I guarantee that all imputs will adjust to these new grain prices, then what happens when the grains drop back down 4 or 5 bucks/bu? What will happen is we can lose the whole farm in 1 year instead of 2 or 3! Guarantee it!

Where there is market volatility there is risk, and therefore profit to be made.
An industry with zero risk will have very close to zero profit potential.

jeez parsley i'm creeped out. you sit there fantasizing about my wife and me? change your meds or get some counselling! i guess you got so wrapped up in your reverie you missed the colloquialism. anyways, yes i'm sure your organic production will command a premium and from what i understand canada is way behind in production of organic crops. i have said for the last few years that i think anyone cropping less than a few thousand acres should be going organic because i think it will be their ticket to survival and profitability, sorry cropduster for posing those questions. funny how guys like you try to hang some nickname you hope will be derogatory as soon as someone doesn't go with your flow. oh well, probably not worth thinking about anyway. you'd rather think that this price rally is different - it won't be followed by a correction. remember the late seventies: grain prices can't fall god isn't making any more land. dfarms gets my drift (you should catch that pun eh, cropduster). and tom is right, fertilizer prices can drop but they always seem to rise more than they fall back. with increasing concentration of ownership of input suppliers i doubt they will fall back much.

jensend,
You asked for what you got from Parsley! "you're not my wife so you can't put words in my mouth."
My favorite marketer said this:
"Beware of those who have little else to say but "a short crop has a long tail" -- as you could get your tail in a wringer listening to that advice if you haven't already. Times they are NOT a-changin' as Bob Dylan sang, they have changed!" (Jerry Gulke DTN Columnist Fri Jan 11, 2008 05:32 PM CST)
Wake up ... jensend... and smell the coffee!

jensend,
Your visual donned suggestiveness, and although it took only one nano-second to choose a preference for fantasizing about beetles, your diversionary tactics, (along with organics out of the blue), nearly served its' purpose.... to make us forget the question you didn't answer.
Which countries? What product? Subtlety will avoid me, so name them! Or are they inventions of a longtime-fertilized imagination?
Parsley
