Don't usually agree with you beetle but you have hit the nail on the head.

Add some of those other investment firms that overpaid for land when durum and wheat were high. Can't pay hundred thousand dollar salaries to these land managers for sitting on their duffs.

The hog industry: may it rest in peace. Pork production will be relocated to Brazil. The big problem comes in getting all of our grain out of here without domestic feed comsumption and the US market. Only so much rail capacity going west. As far as small pork producers: they were extinct a long time ago. Bottom line: expect lower prices for grains.

Maybe the days of export markets are over and the Dairy and Poultry model will be extended to pork and beef. I don't see any bankruptcy in those models and fair prices to consumers. Time to stop subsidizing food production when consumers only spend 10 percent of their disposable income on food.

ajl. Small pork producers are not extinked. Imho they are more under the radar. I approched a couple of producers with empty bioteck shelters to see if they were interested in selling one. They were not. Said the day will come when the hogs will be worth more and feed grains will be worth less. Olso know of some very small producers that sell localy. They always seem to get alot of free feed from farmers that have a bit of grain you cannot sell. Or cheap screanings. Can't wait to get mine for I am out of pork and won't buy from the store.

Once all major producers are all broke mega barns will be back. But Cargil will own them and the hogs and the packers. Setting the price for feed to feed the cattle that they already own and the hogs.

Think we will get rich?

Well the corporate grain farm here just put their canola bags in the bottom of a water run again. Last year they pushed one whole bag into a slough. Their help one does not need.

Think we will get rich?? Not if your going to grow cheap feed.

Parsley, are you looking for "transition" grains or certified organic?

[parsley]

Query. Feed buyers. Huge. Export. Main thing is no GM. Fd Bly. Cert Org. Possibly transition, too. Farmer integrity important. Looking to establish conmtracting and continuity. Eight bucks at the farm.

[Hopperbin]

8 dollars delivered to where???
And OH they want gm free barley, like there is gm barley or oats in the first place. It would not surprise me on the oats the way most oat piles look around the countryside today, cannot be fit to eat.

Dockage content is considered. I don't put the orders together or do sales. I frequently get asked for names for sources.
