Cheap Farmland Lures Foreign Buyers

I have long suspected that over time
"cooperatives" in the acting sense of the
word will re-emerge from a producer level.
Look at the neighbours that go on drug
runs to the US, or other examples of guys
working together/sharing equipment, etc.
Working together to overcome tough times
is pretty standard in agriculture and it
will come full circle. This is probably
going to be in the form of new businesses.

Must say I've always found their stores pretty useless. Always overstaffed with people who never know where anything is. On occasion they do have very good buys on some products but do a p.poor job of letting you know about them. I usually go look at the stuff at UFA then go buy it at Peavey Mart instead - usually cheaper, more helpful staff etc.
I do like UFA for fuel though - for our one bulk load a year plus the cardlocks.
Scotia bank being involved won't put me off as I use UFA credit like I use my visa card - pay it all off in full the next month and you have no interest and no problems.
