Last winter our Bunge canola went to Altona..and so is this yrs Dec. contract..Yet we are only 144 kms from Nipawin..Cost Bunge alot more to ship that far..So there must be major dollars being made..

The Humboldt to Altona trucking seems hard to figure out.
Bunge has a loading facility just west of Humboldt near Dixon on the CNR tracks.......bad service from CN?

I have heard the Altona crusher can only crush canola and not soybeans so they have to bring in a lot from Saskatchewan.

The reason that we are wrecking the roads with semis is because the cost of sending a hopper of wheat from Moose Jaw to Montreal is $8300. The railways need to make many more billions.

Canola fields becoming few and far between in the rrv. Beans taking over. Only a matter of time before a bean crusher is built in s.mb, or existing facilities expand into a bean line.

railcars full of soy sauce destined for china, the ole oil tankers should work.
