Does it ever make you wonder....a couple of examples...
1. When pulse canada says India is going to reduce tariffs ....wasnt that already built in when graincos started raising prices months ago....and why were farmers not informed then?
2. You read about a losing a generation in the cattle business and you see it coming when young guys start to sell out to larger BTOs and no one gives a shit....the policies developed have gotten us to this point...
3. How can farm groups present the bills from individual farmers and the ag minister twists it over the entire farm population to work the fed's numbers...
4. Land purchases with 1970s grain prices....making it up on volume....
5 Suicides because guys are losing a 6th generation farm....its not mental health problems....its that financiallly farmers are not even supported the same way the average person being paid to watch netflix is....wait til CERB runs out and the same thing will happen....DO more AG will become DO more Public....
Some quick and easy math if an american farmer grows a 150 bpa of corn at 3 bucks thats the equivalent of a 60 bpa canola crop....plus they are getting farm payments on top of that....
Then of course there is the farm with 5 numbered companies having access to the business loans which allows them to stack more dollars per acre subsidy....on the 10000 dollar grant at the end...
A solution would be a per acre payment. Zero interest on all cash advances . And of course the same 25% grant at the end of the advance...
None of it will happen with the lobbyists farmers have.
Everyone remember the last time that farms were allowed large write downs to stay in business ....its going to happen again ....why you ask.....
They have a new generation of lenders that don't know better......and there is a generation of farmers that know the workings...young lenders....a second generation of scammers.....sadly those guys are the ones considered good farm businessmen...sign for top dollar but pay 10 cents on the dollar in the end...
