Hockey12, I agree with what you just said but this is a buisness, and in a buisness you look out #1only these retailers are helping out local programs etc. But do you really think they care about the farmer making money? No because they're are looking out for #1.

Finally I will give you this scenario. For your farm you were looking to buy canola seed, and your local dealer all be it nice guy with coffee always on was 2.00/lb higher than a retailer down the road you would give that extra $10/acre (5lb/acre*$2.00/lb) just to keep him around? What advantage is there to him not being there, or in 5 years you not being there.

toughgoofit. I guess you think it's good business practice for these retailers to bankrupt their customer base?

A heathly ag economy is what everyone in the industry wants to see. It's good for business all around.

Oldman, I think you have to reread my post because I said exactly what you said. Hockey12 said we should support are locals, I said what advantage is there we support the locals if in five years we won't be there. Not sure what you meant.
