Grain Markets Errol?

Money makes money. That seed money always eluded me.

This is the same issue as diesel. We bought a 120,000 L tank. Will hold two superbees of fuel. We use about 60000 L per year. So we buy once annually. The tank makes us either really right or really wrong.

If it ever gets to 50 cents we will fill it for two seasons but when it's 90-120 cents/L it's hard to know what to do.

Do you have a seperate tank for winter diesel?

Doesn't help grain markets no snow to push and not 30 below , too easy to load now.

Is this the case across most of the prairies? It certainly is true anywhere I've travelled in Alberta.
At some point this goes from being a convenience to being a concern about moisture next season.

Sask same except maybe where SF3 is , even the swamp has none and land is drying out even more
apparently there is snow in the forecast for March so that should keep prices down

Anyone using a 400bbl tank for fuel? Looking for larger farm tank but the only thing that is priced reasonably are the surplus 400bbl tanks. If I can buy fuel for under a dollar I will be happy. Not sure we will get there though.

Ground is bare we are rolling up wire plus 1

Errol, what is your opinion on the idea that gold is a leading indicator of the markets inflationary expectations?

Nope, this is a speculative buying binge. Higher gold goes, the bigger the drop. Inflation well in the rearview mirror (IMO).

What about fertilizer bin with liquid valve on the bottom. There is guy that coop fills has had one since the eighties

That didn’t take long . . . gold reversal. Cattle board under-siege, technically oversold, but still points lower. Soymeal appears leading the charge lower on grain markets.
