Seed costs for canola out of line with latest shit show with China.

[SASKFARMER3]

The whole thread was to show that with the latest gov screw up Canadian farmers will get the shaft.


It will average about $2.00 a bushel thanks to our idiot PM Trudeau.

Let’s look at loss


5000 seeded same as normal x 56 x 2 equals


$560,000.00 taken from just me by a useless liberal government. Do the math on your farms even a liberal farm voter must be mad or is it harpers fault.

While western canada crashes the liberals party.

Trudeau isnt ignoring us farmers out west, remember, they wanted to stop the use of cash deferrals, and wanted to change the rules of incorporations, oh and dont forget about the carbon tax.

There is probably 50,000 ac of canola grown in gooddales riding every year. Evraz steel isn't in even in his riding and I doubt anyone but top management live in Wascana.

Evraz isn't even a Canadian company. ...they sold it out for shareholder value while they had 600 million in the bank and now they are back on the government tit. ...

If its too expensive, don't buy it.

Sad to say but at seeding time $700 bags of the shit will be flocked out the doors of retailers in droves. We are all ****ing sheep thinking it’ll get better blah blah blah! Same shit different day. Some areas like ours in the black soil zone with lots of rocks, hills, and shorter season don’t do well with peas for obvious reasons. Lentils, flax etc don’t work period. All else we have is cereals and cow forage or pasture. Not many cow farmers left. If a guy is renting most their ground and has a lot of equipment payments which accounts for a sizeable portion of producers the storm will be perfect. My own figures with most land owned and a reasonable equipment investment per acre coupled with fairly conservative inputs and a long term yield average; there is nothing much for profit considering how much inputs are. I have nightmares of a sea of wheat oats and barley with no home let alone a decent price. I have half a mind to cut planned canola acres in half to my best ground and seed a cereal for summer grazing on the poorest land and renovate some old grass. Maybe buy some more cows. Without canola being at least a profitable option here there is not much else other than cows. I really feel for the straight grain guys. It sucks! Like the BSE thing that nearly broke my ass coupled with that drought. It was out of your control and you stood there watching it all crumble around you.

I have 3 neighbors that plant 50,000 acres of canola! Not Goodales riding, but anybody who has been farming any length of time must realize the government doesnt give a f%*k about farmers. When I started farming we were the scourge of the earth. Cash poor, mainstream society thought we were getting new trucks from the government. It was pretty weird, but I could see that primary ag was going to have to change.
That was the real push with progressive farmers increased in productivity and efficiency. I think they did well. Equity growth. Farmland has doubled or tripled in value. Plus somebody must have put away a few dollars somewhere. Even Gary Pike made money on a total failure!
If it goes badly for a couple of years, the farmers that overpaid for farmland will goto FCC and get a write down like they have in the past. Rent it for 6 years, then buy it back for half the price they originally promised to pay.
So, really its for the better. They will get to own the same land for a lower price.

Hobby it won’t happen this time.

I think it will...was hoping it wouldn't. ...but the lenders are all new at the offices....most don't know shit about the last series of writedowns because they were not born yet....

But the guys loading up on debt know the procedure .....build everything on one home quarter. ..then let one member take the fall. ....


He's still going to be farming with the same stuff because the machinery stored in sheds is another member...

The loan officers are all wet behind the ears....
