      The announcement is good news for sure. Investment and jobs all good. I hope it was the reporters interpretation and not company policy to use farmers”waste” straw, as I can assure them my straw has value to me.

        Article says west side of Regina. Maybe some GTH land?

        Yeah hopefully its not like the flax straw plants where they are so picky about the straw and wont pay farmers enough to bale it and haul it in. Just became a costly donation and guys started burning it again.

          Why is everything at Regina, besides, a couple of dry years and nobody will give up their straw down in that area. Has this not been tried before? Go use the plant built in Manitoba or wherever it is.

            Probably its a well-greased plant, if you know what I mean. How much faith do you have in this one?

              Says the company already owned some land here. Not sure if that was a GTH fire sale for them. Along with a $400k grant.

                I can imagine the uproar when the stacked straw brings more rats to Regina.

                    Wheat straw is easy to put back. More valuable as o.m. Flax was a better waste material. The logistics are terrible. I doubt this is viable or useful.
