Saskfarmer not to disagree with you but you have been doing the same thing to all us smaller producers that you are now complaining the mega farms are doing to you. Snatching up any land that comes avaliable ,squeezing out the little guy that dont want to get into the game of size is the only thing that counts.
Who ever would have thought 10,000 acre farmers would worry about being swallowed up by larger operators.

They don’t like old people with experience and wisdom. They want all climate barbies and social justice warriors for cabinet ministers. Only solution is to get rid of this incompetent group in an election or our country won’t be able to service the debt.

Or elect a Liberal next time, so they have someone remotely competent to choose from. OK, competent Liberal is an oxymoron, obviously no one with any competency, or ethics/morals would associate their name with this current band of criminals.

But reality is, they can't chose anyone with competence if we don't send anyone.

I always heard that the big guys are buying out the smaller guys....

Then when the real story comes out later....The BTO will tell you he didn't go looking for land ...it came looking for him....meaning it was the small guy that wanted out that made the call.....


Picked up a half section at the gas pumps a few years back....just shooting the shit while the slip tank was filling....

It happens to us smaller guys. That’s all I’ll say about that.

In the 80s yea, I bought everything I could find. Never real estate deal just talk to people.

Don't be fooled the BTO goes door to door also to see whats for sale.

Its follow the money that bugs me.

We all know farming you make a living and put some money away and in the end if you have some luck and a little brain power you can retire.

Today I cant see how a farm can go from nothing to 50000 acres or 3000 to 150000 or whatever Follow the money.

The indians are buying Land with the white mans Money !

White man rents it back !

Follow the Money !

Money talks !

is that happening where you are ?

[SASKFARMER]

My point in all this isn't it funny how quietly under some Farmers foreign money is coming in and buying up land.

Name one big bank that any of you deal with that will lend you 20 50 or 100 plus million with the stroke of a pen after three to 10 years in business at a bigger size.

Throw in an insane federal gov with all its help everyone except Canadians. Don't you think Skippy will divide farms up? Money for everything or cause.

Oh, yea and the Feds won't pay you what your land is worth either. It will be expropriated or repatriated back.

2020 was weird but if weird is the new normal what the hell will 2021 and beyond bring us.

Way out there!

Read in the USA about land lost in 1910 and Biden will give land back to the people who lost it. Trudeau in the great reset will get some for sure.

Is it large land farms.

$14 canola, 15 beans, 7.00 corn, 8 wheat, yah, i can see $200/ac cash rents on the way. Is 2022 the year canola seed exceed $1000/bag?
