Re Straw.

Enbridge is paying something like $55 for large round cereal straw bales that will be shredded over top of the pipeline construction ROW/easement.

Our cereal straw needs to be returned to the previously abused soil, so we aren't baling any of ours for this project. We gave up some income foregoing it.

Imagine 3 bales/acre on a hundred fifty acre field is a cool $24,750

I can't imagine baling the straw that comes out the back of this rotary combine on these hot dry days. You better have a good baler and probably need net wrap to keep them from falling apart.

The straw after the MAV chopper very fine. My land needs it more. Especially the "low class" stuff.

All land needs it , even here in the swamp
Whereever the canola straw had piled up around the water runs we just seeded through the piles, (never harrowed) the wheat where those piles was is a lot thicker and heavier
Cant believe people burn it or gove it away . All land desperately needs it !
