Would still be way cheaper than new iron at $500,000 plus. Depreciation that kills.

Don’t worry about AGT govt money incoming....protein supercluster just announced at $153MM offederal money with matching from the private sector. AGT is taking home a big chunk of that

Depreciation on overpriced equipment and increased interest rates is about to kill a lot of advancements in Ag , both on farm and in Ag industry , especially in machinery development, ie Bourgault layoffs . The gig is up, then add carbon tax and trade wars .. things are going not only in slow down but reverse. Just a reality for dryland farming here in western Canada and the “climate” we have to face. It is what it is . A reset is here.
Not being a Debbie downer ... just seeing where things are headed .
A quick look at income and expenses tell the tale on any farm regardless of size.
It is simply not sustainable.
A lot of things are about to give, no different than what Errol has been pointing out for a long time in the general economy. A wall has been hit .. hard.

Well said, couldn’t agree more!!

We are probably due.
Been a pretty good ride the last
10-12 years.
Just wish it would have happened when I was younger.
Would have enjoyed it more.

That is the problem with some of us old guys. Seen too many bad years , pretty jaded. Do not get too happy.

Now you have me thinking we are due for a cold dry summer with Killing frost
Mid August. Green froze canola.
Feed wheat at 1$ bushel.

Pretty happy how wrong I have been so far.

My people look at me like a cow watching a freight train go by when I say I've sold canola at 6 and wheat at 5 longer than at any higher price. Barley at 2.
Not a doom guy myself at all, but I'm shoring up the moat myself.

It will never happen! And land prices can't fall either....even if the last ten years of appreciation were parabolic!

Sarcasm intended!
