Stats Can Seeding intention?

Errol, why is the report wrong?

Sask is Bone dry and Alberta is at full bore canola rotation.

Manitoba has left the building on Canola, Soy is King. Cheaper to grow and they get the yields.

Canola snow canola works till you have to phone RB auctions or Input Capita.

Explain why all seed sales of Canola are down, Guys brown bagging, haha, No.

Best Varieties are still available.

Yet we are going to be wall to wall canola.

We travelled to Winkler on Monday and the stubble is lots of corn. Only saw one outfit moving up the road but not one machine of any type out in the fields- almost no water laying around either. One guy told us he is going to grow sesame seeds. Anyone grown them?

Why is anyone growing lentils and peas.....did some of my checkoff dollars find a market for them?

Maybe if canola was 100 bucks an acre for seed people would come to their senses....

Growing wheat durum ....well just about any crop this year ensures the bin suppliers a good bonus this year...


The system might move a 1960s crop with boxcars but in reality the railways will not have finished moving last year's crop by harvest....

We should just take the year off....and see how Canada doesn't matter....to the world or to Ottawa. ...

Weeds and summerfallow are environmentally friendly right?

And good for a starving world?

I agree furrow on the canola comment because all the guys I know that sell or supply seed have any variety you need still available if we were wall to wall canola that wouldn't be the case.

Plus its dry dust blowing by Regina yesterday.

I was reading reports of grass fires west of Regina yesterday??

I was reading reports of grass fires west of Regina yesterday??

My guess it could be by trains....very common until first rain.

Canola + $1.20 market doesn't have much faith in govt

Curious SF3... what is better tow behind or tow between? Those are not 80' drills like local BTO.
