Mathematically it's time for plan B!

If you come from northern Saskatchewan you know we have combined dry grain end of October, beginning of November. However the word is if the straw goes through the combine runs.

Hopefully guys here get er done, and get some fall work accomplished .
Tough to break that cycle of late seeding - late harvest - followed by no or min fall work - which leads to a late seeding start again the next year.
Of course that has been enhanced by 2 wet springs and the first wetter fall in 8 years.
Although we have been not near as wet as Eastern Sask, it still has been troublesome for a lot guys caught in that cycle.
That being said, there is more fall work being done now than any other fall I can remember. A lot of tillage machines, discs and harrows goin everywhere.

Tempted to hold off until dry since weather forecast looks great for weekend. I know, its risky, but the quality doesn't merit any sacrifice.

[SASKFARMER3]

Furrow lots of fall work. Chisel plows, lemkins, kelly, discers, lots ripping.

[Klause]

Yup.


And here's what we are working on...


Importing liquid 28-00-00 fertilizer, then filling the container with wheat and shipping it back to China.


$300 a tonne or better liquid fert and $8 or better wheat.

Math may work better shipping peas back in the container. Kinda doubt you will compete vs bulk vessel re wheat but hope I am wrong.

I looked at the whole container of wheat sales and didn't get very far. The logistics is so much cheaper that you really need to get out of commodity grain to make it work.

Cool......

Klause, why not urea? Or do you have big plans for those 1000L totes?Dave it would depend on how bad the locals are stealing grain. Most of the transporting cost is from here to vancouver. Klause,to you have access to a container tipper? A conveyor with the spout removed can work too.

[Hopperbin]

Shipping fert from china to here just does not make sense. We are exporters of n. Now your going to get in a container plus a bunch of through away totes. I suggest ordering early
Go to china to oversee manufacturing. Transport
All transport. Cause I think in the end you will have 10 0 0..just my opinion. Lots of toxic waiste can can be added to water to makenit heavy. Ask why its even possible. But hey if it works you got bragging rights.
