    Why are they higher in Ontario and why did the govt have to put peoples elec bills on the provincial credit card and then amortized it out 30 yrs. A double subsidy.

    Yeah its a real winner that technology. If you are half blind and had a recent lobotomy. Explains chuck to a tee.

      In April 2020, Bloomberg New Energy Finance found "Solar PV and onshore wind are now the cheapest sources of new-build generation for at least two-thirds of the global population. Those two-thirds live in locations that comprise 71% of gross domestic product and 85% of energy generation. Battery storage is now the cheapest new-build technology for peaking purposes (up to two-hours of discharge duration) in gas-importing regions, like Europe, China or Japan."
      No, you need to update Australian's knowledge. That was the quote from the Australian article I posted for Chuck's comment on the other thread. Don't shoot the messenger, go read the article, and prove them wrong.

      I have offered this challenge to Chuck for the past few years. Please find a location in the world where adding renewable energy hasn't resulted in higher costs to the end users, relative to a location who hasn't done so. Somewhere between generating the cheapest energy, and reliably delivering that energy to the consumer on demand 24/7, the cheapest becomes the most expensive. This experiment has been repeated over and over with the same results. When the results are different somewhere, I will gladly become a proponent.

          Or actually who knows with some of you on here
          You claim to be farmers , then not , then change your name , admitting it , then denying it
          All the while continuing to bash 80% of the real farmers on here for differing opinions. You should be proud of yourselves .

            I would imagine that the bag of seed was a third of the price of other brands, right?

              Not sure but it was great deal for a great variety from a line company “sales” rep that has never grown an acre of the stuff in his life ... LMAO

                Dekalb pod shatter roundup was pure garbage, could not handle the heavy rains we had at all
                Wish I would have put another variety on same field split it up to show how bad it was. All the canola was not good here but these were a joke.

                  Every SeedCo wants to say they have a variety in their portfolio that can be left to mature standing to be straight-cut, call it what you want.

                  But when the pods split open or fall to the ground Producers are supposed to just accept that.

                  Sounds like false advertising to me.

                  From "Electric vehicle production" to canola pod shatter, damn we're good!

                      Kept running by an on-board gas-fueled generator! I challenge anyone to write better comedic irony!
