    Certified insane way to try and make a living! All with meager crop insurance and useless gutted support programs.
    Come out here (Edmonton) and I will show you hundreds of thousands lost due to flooding. There is land in this area that produced no crop in 16 and 17 due to flooding. Dry will look much better then. I am hoping for a dry winter so we don't have to do the seed in mud and crop's a dud thing again.

      I think we can all agree that either extreme is no good......
      Hope we all get a little of what we want.

        I think I scared SWFARMER away with that price. He's become very quiet. 😂😂
        There are cheaper chickpeas to seed like B-90s.
        But everyone wants those .70-75 ones.

          I guess it's called supply-demand.
          $1.20 a lb? Are you using new math?
