    Landlords will possibly cool their jets?

    $20 canola sure had plenty of them thinking they needed to renegotiate multi-year contracts...

    *sarcasm alert*
    Maybe record losses will put them in the drivers seat. Surely the answer for producers will be to add acres to spread out all these fixed costs. HA!

        Wasn’t long ago places in sask you could rent for taxes. As much as things suck this might bring some folks back to earth.

          I am NW of Maple Creek and we will be doing the same thing very soon. Not good. At least green feed is an option for my operation. Going to be a very hollow sound in a lot of grain bins and grain elevators this year.

            I bet it doesn’t. To be funk, if the last several years yields were anything near truthful, there should be some stupendous crop insurance coverage. When our area went through multiple years of no crop and single digit yields due to too much rain, land and iron was as exciting as ever for most around me.

              None of my neighbors mentioned they where looking for more land lately but one guy who sold his this spring sure looked very relaxed in his new air conditioned 1/2 ton when I spoke to him the other day standing by my white bare pasture !

                Crop insurance is one thing , and yes be very decent for some , but grain contracts will be the death knoll for many though .
                Not all areas had great crops the past 4-5 years , that in combination of grain contracts is a pending disaster.

                  I hear you, but it’s amazing the depth of pockets on a lot of guys.

                    Just to set the record straight last years farm incomes were up and many farmers were giddy with the higher prices. I never said anything about 2021 incomes.

                    And considering that the chances for a longer drought appeared to be shaping up this spring, I was encouraging farmers and the provinces to support improvements to Agristability.

                    But alas, many farmers on this site said it was a useless program and not to bother.

                    If you happen to get no crop or 1/2 a crop because of drought then lets hope you signed up for Crop Insurance and Agristability because together they will cover some of your lost income.

                      It is a useless program I bet I won't even qualify again for this wreck. Need a structural change give up rented land.
