Viterra Announces Intent to Build World Class Canola Crush Facility in Regina

[redleaf]

Sat down with local manager and slid receipts across desk to him. Local. Viterra compared to local purchaser for crush. Easily one or two percent dockage. Difference explained as size is teen for export vs domestic crush. Will this change if viterra builds their own facility.

The questions are...

1. How many litres of biodiesel from a bushel of canola?
2. How does the price of biodiesel correlate to canola price?
3. Do you pay carbon tax on biodiesel?

All valid questions?

We have world class refineries in Saskatchewan for heavy oil . We supply our own needs within Saskatchewan. And yet we are taxed like crazy on everything.

Now we are getting world class canola oil refineries that should be as environmentally friendly as solar and wind but farmers are excluded from any carbon offsets????

1. About 10-10.5 litres based on 44% oil from memory. Easy to make.
2. When canola was 5 bucks it pencilled out
3.Dunno
