Actually Dave I believe peas have plenty of export potential as long as India and China keep opening their doors to us, the local Pioneer was shipping 100 cars per week there until farmers quit delivering because there was none left. If they have enough product of their own these doors could close just as fast as they opened as they both protect their farmers with import duties, and we could be back to not likely 3.5 dollar peas but 6 IMO. Now do some math no phosphate, no N, no S. Peas are now becoming a lower risk crop although some of my nieghbours still think peas are high risk because of crop failure. I grew over 1/3 of my acres to peas this year, I don't think I can do that every year. Now for next year I will have to purchase more acres of fertilizer at quite a bit higher cost.

Gee didn't India or Pakistan or Turkey have a shortage.
Americans and Europeans are running to Soy and Canola and Wheat lets run another way Fill Oats Barley Lentils Peas Chickpeas etc market.
Why not run in a different direction and see what happens. you can lock in Prices why not.
Still better 6.00 peas at 45 than 45 canola at 14. minus inputs to grow each crop.
