Stripe rust hits Alberta spring wheat crops

Canola’s demand is bright

Infection significant in Peace region BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Basis up | Flood fears drive up delivery offers for canola in western Man., eastern Sask.

Stripe rust brought spores and surp r i s e s t o A l b e r t a g row e r s a n d researchers this year. The yield-limiting infection usually blows in from the Pacific Northwest, first affecting winter wheat fields in southern Alberta and then spreading into spring wheat. This year, the leaf disease overwintered in central Alberta, where it later caused an estimated 25 percent loss in susceptible varieties of spring wheat, said Alberta Agriculture cereal pathologist Kequan Xi. Winter wheat acreage is low in central Alberta, and the few crops that are grown there are often monitors for any stripe rust infection that could affect the much larger spring wheat acreage.

Franck Groeneweg does a double take when he scans the basis levels at his local elevator. “It’s amazing,” he said. “We never thought it was going to tighten up like this.” The basis level was $70 per tonne under the futures price when he signed his contract in November. Last week, the Viterra elevator in Balgonie, Sask., was offering $7.40 under for short-term delivery, 31 cents over for November and $5 over for February. He can’t recall when basis levels have looked so good that far into the future. Groeneweg attributes the dramatic turnaround to a number of factors, including improved logistics. “Our transportation issues have fixed themselves maybe a little quicker than expected,” he said. Jonathon Driedger, senior market analyst with FarmLink Marketing Solutions, said the improvement has been staggering. Two months ago grain companies were offering $30 under for new crop delivery. Today it is zero or even positive for the immediate post-harvest period. “We’re talking a swing of $30 to $40 per tonne,” he said. SEE CANOLA DEMAND, PAGE 2

CANOLA | FROM PAGE ONE

Canola demand is bright “It has really made a strong move even for that fall window, which I’ll admit surprised me a little bit.” He thinks it has a lot to do with the slumping canola futures market, which is weighed down by prospects of a massive U.S. soybean crop despite faltering canola fields. “The basis has had to do some of the heavy lifting to bring values back into line,” said Driedger. Bruce Burnett, CWB weather and crop specialist, said grain industry officials are concerned that a large portion of the 2014 crop has been lost to flooding. About 40 percent of Canada’s canola is produced in the waterlogged region of western Manitoba and eastern Saskatchewan. That would explain why basis levels in those regions have improved more than they have in the western Prairies. Louis Dreyfus Commodities in Yorkton was offering a $15 positive basis for August delivery as of last week. Burnett believes 3.5 to four million acres have been lost to flooding. He forecasts 14 to 15 million tonnes of canola production, down from 18 million tonnes last year. “It has changed the dynamic for canola,” he said. “It doesn’t look like we’re going to have a burdensome stock level at the end of the 2014-15 marketing year.”

Burnett expects basis levels to remain strong if production is what he is anticipating. “You’d probably be looking at a basis improvement by next spring, certainly,” he said. “You’ll see that seasonal improvement that we didn’t get this year.” Driedger also forecasts 14.5 million tonnes of canola production. “That is close to about two million tonnes lower than what we would have thought heading into the growing season,” he said. Large areas have been drowned out, the crop that survived in the wet zone is struggling and there are dry patches in western Saskatchewan and the Peace region of Alberta. He believes there is room for basis levels to further improve if futures values continue to sag or the crop condition continues to deteriorate. “I would not be surprised, to be quite honest, if we continue to see them strengthen,” he said. “Would I price today? I’m not sure that I would. I think there’s potentially some upside.” Groeneweg doesn’t know whether he should be contracting new crop canola at today’s values. He wonders if canola futures prices will eventually pull away from soybean values as the market digests the short canola crop and massive soybean crop.

» BUMPER CORN: The U.S. corn crop is This year, Xi said stripe rust was seen in the tillering stage of spring wheat, resulting in fungicide spraying in mid to late June, two weeks earlier than usual. Infection has also been significant in the province’s Peace region. The disease was also found in several fields across a wide swath of southern Alberta, which is the usual bellwether for the pathogen. However, its appearance was patchy and infection generally not severe. Thirty percent of fields surveyed for the disease had moderate to severe levels of infection. Fungicide spraying took place in winter and spring wheat fields in some areas, but most crops are now too mature for fungal spraying. “Any growers who had susceptible or moderate resistance (in wheat varieties) probably sprayed,” said plant pathologist Mike Harding of Alberta Agriculture. Most effective fungicides require a specific pre-harvest interval, so Harding recommended checking product labels and the provincial crop protection guide, known as the blue book, before spraying at this stage. Agriculture Canada researcher Denis Gaudet, who has been surveying southern Alberta fields for the pathogen, said overall damage will likely be limited.

“I think that we won’t get hit hard with stripe rust in terms of yield and quality damage this year,” he said. Stripe rust is characterized by long, bright orange stripes on the upper leaves of wheat. The fungus reduces plants’ ability to photosynthesize and also releases spores that rupture the plants’ epidermis. That results in moisture loss and death from dehydration. Gaudet said producers who are considering planting winter wheat should choose stripe rust resistant varieties. Radiant used to be the go-to variety, but its resistance has broken down as disease pathogens have changed. Gaudet recommended Moats for dry land regions of Western Canada Flourish or AAC Gateway for irrigated land and the parkland region. All three have resistance to stripe rust and similar levels of hardiness. Given the unpredictability of stripe rust infection in any given year, it might also be wise to consider resistant spring wheat varieties next spring as well, added Xi. Gaudet said the breakdown of resistance in varieties that are bred to fend off stripe rust is a concern among researchers and the focus of new crop breeding. Development of new winter wheat varieties with strong resistance would also prevent later spread and infection to spring wheat.

CANOLA | MARKETING

New marketing options open for Nexera BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

CARMAN, Man. — Growers of Nexera canola will soon have new options when contracting their crop. Producers have previously signed contracts in which they promised to sell the high oleic canola to a processor. “What has come to our attention in the last couple of years is you have a group of producers (in Western Canada) that would like to grow Nexera as their commodity canola or their canola of choice,” Jamie Denbow, market development specialist for Dow AgroSciences in Manitoba, said at a recent field trial southwest of Carman. “But they’re looking for things that the traditional contracting stream hasn’t been able to deliver … one of them being when I har vest my canola it’s my cash crop…. If I need to haul a load (to an elevator) right off the combine, I’m going to do that.” Beginning this fall, producers can sign an agreement with Dow that allows them to grow and sell Nexera as a specialty or commodity canola. “Up to this year, the one route that you had to produce Nexera … was to sign a production contract. That then gives you access to the seed. This year (for the 2015 growing season) we’re introducing what’s called the flexibility agreement,” Denbow said. “So if a grower wants to use it as his cash canola … but still have access to the Nexera germplasm, this will give him the opportunity…. He can book Nexera seed through a flexibility agreement without necessarily committing that to the old Nexera stream.” Jeff Loessin, Dow Agrosciences’ portfolio marketing leader for crop protection, said canola producers have asked for this option because they want to grow Nexera hybrids. “Our genetic material, particularly 1012, is being recognized as being a high performing canola.” Loessin said the flexibility contracts should also benefit the high oleic canola industry because a larger volume of Nexera will be available to tap into, if necessary. “As food companies look at products like omega 9 oil, assurity of supply is one of the key questions,” he said. “Frito-Lay, if they’re going to switch a line over… (they) need oil…. It really helps the whole system grow the demand for high stability oil, having this pool … that processors will be able to call on.” Denbow said Dow reduced its Nexera production contracts for this year because of last year’s record canola yields. It has contracted 1.3 million acres of Nexera compared to 2.1 million for acres for last year. Denbow said processors had to “chew through” the excess supply, but demand remains strong for high stability canola oil. “That surplus is through now, and moving into the 2015 crop, that (production) needs to expand quite dramatically.” Loessin said Nexera will likely be higher than 2.1 million acres in 2015. “It’s going to be north of what we did in 2012 (for the 2013 growing season).”

WINTER WHEAT | NEW VARIETIES

Fusarium resistant winter wheat ready for farmers’ fields AC Emerson available this fall | Growers expected to plant up to 200,000 acres of new seed BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Farmers will have access to Canada’s first fusarium resistant wheat this fall. AC Emerson is a winter wheat variety with an R rating for fusarium head blight resistance. It is the first commercial variety in any class with that level of resistance. Canterra Seeds hopes it will prove to be a popular replacement for the outgoing winter wheat leader, CDC Falcon. “We’re having a very large-scale launch,” said Brent Derkatch, director of operations and business development for Canterra. “It will be one of the largest variety launches we’ve had in our company history.” He said growers will likely plant up to 200,000 acres of the variety in the fall, mostly in Manitoba where fusarium is most prevalent.

That would replace some of the acres seeded to CDC Falcon, which is being moved to the Canadian Western General Purpose class as of Aug. 1. CDC Falcon has been the most popular winter wheat variety grown in Manitoba by a wide margin: growers planted 352,064 acres last year. The next most popular winter wheat was CDC Buteo at 26,517 acres. Manitoba Crop Variety Evaluation Team data shows Emerson yielded one bushel per acre higher than Falcon and has 1.3 percent higher protein. The variety has good milling characteristics and performed well in the field. “Our seed producers noticed that the winter hardiness of Emerson was very strong this year versus some of the other up-and-coming varieties,” said Derkatch. This is a good year to launch the product. Manitoba Agriculture has designated the province as an extreme risk area for fusarium As well, winter wheat plantings are

expected to be way up this fall because waterlogged eastern Saskatchewan and western Manitoba are big winter wheat areas. Bruce Burnett, CWB weather and crop specialist, estimates 3.5 to four million acres were lost to flooding in that region, half of which went unplanted. That land is a prime candidate for winter wheat. “I think we’ll see the acreage pop up because we’ve seen that happen in the past years where we’ve had problems with flooding,” he said. Winter wheat plantings shot up by 700,000 acres in the fall of 2011 after spring crops were drowned out. Burnett anticipates a similar response this year. “I think we’ll probably be getting close to the two million acre mark, which would be a record for Western Canada,” he said. That would be double the acres planted last year. It could be even higher than that if

wheat prices improve. Burnett, who has toured some of the wettest areas of the Prairies, said fields are starting to dry up. He thinks the acres that went unplanted will be in reasonable shape for seeding come fall. Growers who faced a deluge this spring will probably want to minimize the amount of crop they have to plant next spring. Burnett said it will be nice for farmers to have a fusarium resistant option. The disease can rob growers of both yield and quality. “Fusarium is a significant downgrading factor in wheat,” he said. Derkatch cautions growers that an R rating doesn’t mean immunity: they will still have to scout their fields for the disease. However, it’s a step forward in the fight against fusarium. “Based on what we know today, we have confidence that the variety will hold up better relative to the other varieties in the marketplace,” he said.

IRRIGATION | SASKATCHEWAN STRATEGY

Expand irrigation to boost economy: official Employment benefits | ‘Irrigation development should be a no-brainer,’ says the province’s irrigation association chair BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

Saskatchewan’s recently released irrigation strategy is a good shortterm document, says the chair of the Saskatchewan Irrigation Projects Association. However, Roger Pederson said it is missing provisions for the major infrastructure projects that will really advance the industry. He said the strategy indicates the government will continue to develop irrigation but it emphasizes infill in existing districts. That is necessary, he added, and comes at a lower price than new development. “But for the province to really benefit from irrigation, we need to talk something bigger,” Pederson said. Bigger would mean the Qu’Appelle South and Westside projects, which would cost billions but also provide jobs and economic development and alleviate problems associated with climate change. The strategy says the government will continue to investigate the potential for the Qu’Appelle South project and develop a plan for future development of Westside. However, there have already been several studies of these projects, along with economic studies indicating the widespread benefits to developing them. “Someone has to decide,” Pederson said. “Every time we delay this a few years with more studies or more investigations, the cost goes up. We need to make a start and a commitment.” The province could potentially irrigate another 500,000 acres out of Lake

That could lead to increased vegetable production as well as more irrigated grains and oilseeds. Pederson said the cost is high, but it doesn’t all have to be paid in one year.

“Irrigation is a long-term project and we’re not talking $1 billion in Year 1. We’re talking $50 or $100 million a year for 10, 15, 20, 25 years. It’s not something that’s impossible to get to in the long term.” He said he hopes the government is exploring financing options such as

public-private partnerships and long-term debentures where people could invest in irrigation. The strategy sets out goals for 2020 within four objectives of enhancing returns from existing irrigation, expanding irrigation, sustainable infrastructure and long-term growth.

There are also five main aims: • attract investment and immigration from areas with higher land and water costs • develop 23,000 acres of infill capacity, with 10,000 acres irrigated • develop 10,000 acres of sustainable, licensed irrigable land outside the irrigation districts • continue leading edge research and demonstration sites, in partnership with industry, with a view to innovation, competitiveness, improved productivity and water use efficiency • increase yields, annual net production over rain-fed land and agriculture related employment Some of the work is already underway. For example, irrigation bridges and culverts are being repaired or replaced under the theme of sustainable infrastructure, and the province is transferring operation and maintenance to the irrigation districts. Pederson said the recent wet years might push irrigation from some minds, but most scientists are predicting long-term droughts. “Irrigation development should be a no-brainer,” he said.

WATER CONTAMINATION | PESTICIDE CONTROL

Experts study microbes’ pesticide eliminating skills BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

OUTLOOK, Sask. — Pesticides washed out of a sprayer can account for up to 80 percent of the pesticides found in water bodies, European research has found. That’s why biobeds have become popular on that continent. Biobeds absorb the pesticides and degrade them to eliminate or reduce contamination. The practice is still largely at the research stage in Canada, but Europeans have used it for the last 10 years. Biobeds at the Canada Saskatchewan Irrigation Diversification Centre near Outlook appear like raised garden beds, tucked behind a building and sitting adjacent to a concrete pad where the rinsate is dumped. The rinsate falls through a grate, is pumped to a holding tank and then dripped on to the biobed at certain intervals. Microbes in the beds break down the pesticide, and the water coming out after the process should be pesticide-free.

Agricultural engineer Larry Braul of Agriculture Canada said the evidence from Europe indicates that the process works, but Canada’s climate and weather present challenges. “This biobed, on May 8, we probed down and eight inches below the surface it was solidly frozen,” he told participants at the centre’s recent field day. “Microbes don’t do well in cold temperatures.” Canada also experiences more torrential rainfalls than other places, which could affect how the microbes do their work, he added. Agriculture Canada is working with Simply Ag Solutions in Saskatchewan and the County of Grande Prairie in Alberta to test different designs. Canadian research is also focusing on the microbes. The two beds at Outlook are designed to test differences, particularly if fungicide rinsate is dumped on them. “The primary microbe that works on the biobed is something called a white rot mold, and it’s a fungi,” Braul said. “If you have a fungicide, is that

It also adds a lot of robustness to it when you have two because they say most of the activity is in the top six inches of the biobed. We’re looking at the microbial popu-

lation and the genotype.” Braul said the results should tell researchers how they can improve the nutrients and perhaps even seed the biobeds with the correct microbes for a specific chemical. A biobed is 25 percent soil, 25 per-

cent peat or compost and 50 percent chopped straw or wood chips. The soil contains the micro-organisms that have developed over time as a field is sprayed, so it introduces the microbes. The wood chips provide a feed source for the microbes, and the compost, which is high in organic matter, absorbs the pesticides. Activity increases as the mixture warms, and the rate of degradation is higher. Braul said the material can work for five to seven years and then should be replaced. “The general recommendation is to compost it for a year and then to spread it on your field,” he said. “That gives the microbes another year to finish their work.” Collection pads can be expensive concrete or simple pits. “In Europe, sometimes they build a biobed and they put grating down and they drive right onto the biobed when they wash off their sprayers.” Braul said researchers hope to develop a manual within a few years so Canadian farmers can use the practice to limit sprayer runoff.

Alberta farmers challenged by lodging

Agrisoma targeting 2015 for carinata expansion

Crops can recover | Rain and excessive nitrogen and seeding rates can contribute to problem BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

Flattened grain fields are not mysterious crop circles but symptoms of lodging when too much rain knocks over vulnerable barley and wheat. Crop specialist Neil Whatley of Alberta Agriculture said lodging has been more widespread in cereal crops for the last four years in parts of central and northern Alberta, where lush growth causes weak-stemmed plants to fall over. There has been less rain this year, but incidences of lodging continue in central Alberta and into some northern regions. “Some areas have had about average rainfall and they have had some lodging, too,” Whatley said. Cereals are most susceptible, but peas can also fall over. Canola is less vulnerable because of its stronger stem. Yields losses vary. “There is not a lot of yield loss if you can pick it up. If the stem isn’t broken, you can get nutrients and water flowing through there so it’s not going to decrease yield too much,” he said. “It usually happens to the good crops. You can pull a crop off and still not having much yield decrease. A lot of the combines and swathers are good at getting low these days.” Fact sheets from Alberta Agriculture say lodging can alter plant growth and development because it affects the movement of nutrients and moisture from the soil. It can contribute to uneven maturity, high moisture and loss of grain quality because of sprouting and possible moulding.

Company says it could contract 50,000 acres BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

A field near Calgary shows a lodging problem. Cereal crops are susceptible, but the stem can form an elbow joint if it’s not broken, allowing the plant to recover. | BARBARA DUCKWORTH PHOTO This year has had less rain, but generous applications of nitrogen and higher seeding rates can contribute to heavier growth and changes in the plant stems where the area between the nodes is longer and weaker. “The lower internodes are especially vulnerable because they need to withstand the greatest amount of

movement,” Whatley said. Semi dwarf varieties have stiffer straw so they can withstand the pressure. Lodged crops try to compensate, but they never return to a standing position. “A crop that lodges fairly early will recover through the formation of elbow joints at the lowest stem

nodes. The cells on the lower side of the node elongate and try to force the stem to stay erect,” he said Potassium deficienc y can be another cause of lodging, although most prairie soils have adequate levels. The straw of potassium deficient plants seems more brittle and more vulnerable to collapsing.

Ongoing canola tests yield no silver bullet solutions for producers Ultimate Canola Challenge | Boron applications are showing no value in Alberta tests BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

CYPRESS COUNTY, Alta. — Agronomist Autumn Barnes stands in front of numerous canola plots that look almost identical. They are part of the Ultimate Canola Challenge organized by the Canola Council of Canada and undertaken by applied research groups, and federal and provincial agriculture departments to explore ways to increase canola yields. With one year of data behind the challenge, Barnes says the exploration hasn’t revealed any eureka moments. “We weren’t able to find something that could improve upon doing everything right the first time,” the canola council agronomist told those gathered at a Cypress County field day near Medicine Hat July 17. “The ultimate canola challenge was brought about to see if there’s anything that we can do to improve upon our best management practices. We wanted to see if there were any products that we could add, on top of doing everything right, that will give us that extra yield bump.” So far the answer is no, but research will continue this year and more data

is expected to yield more definitive results. The same tests are being done on plots in Lethbridge and seven other Alberta sites. Plots at the research site near Medicine Hat involved one check and 12 treatments. Barnes said the check plot was given the groceries. It was seeded to achieve seven or eight plants per sq. foot, and based on soil tests, was given 20 pounds per acre of phosphorus

with the seed, 75 lb. of side-banded nitrogen and 15 lb. of sulfur. Other plots each received one different treatment, including 125 lb. of nitrogen at seeding, a seed primer, a stress relief product, topdressed UAN, boron applied at the four to six leaf stage, boron applied at flowering, a higher seeding rate, a reduced rate of nitrogen at seeding another type of seed primer and

a biostimulation product. Each treatment was replicated four times to obtain reliable data. Barnes said last year’s trials showed no significant yield differences from any of the treatments, and this year visual differences are few. Yield data will be gathered after harvest. She said the council receives many questions about the efficacy of additional boron. Some Ontario studies have indicated a response, but prairie trials haven’t shown the same result. “We haven’t been able to see a consistent response from boron at flowering,” she said. “So far the bulk of the scientific evidence indicates that it probably doesn’t (improve yield).” In the challenge, boron was applied at .75 litres per acre in the four to six leaf stage and at one litre per acre on the plot where it was applied at flowering. “It’s something that people want to try every year and it’s something people do try every year, but from the replicated data and from the scientific data, there’s not evidence to show that it’s something worth spending your money on.” Barnes said the changed fertilizer registration system can make it difficult for producers to find reliable data about new products, so independent and reliable research is needed.

The top executive at an Ontario bioscience company says he hopes to see production of carinata expand to at least 50,000 acres next year. Steve Fabijanski, president of Ottawa-based Agrisoma Biosciences Inc., said recent approvals for carinata meal and anticipated approvals for carinata-derived fuels under the U.S. renewable fuel standard could open the door to more contract production in Western Canada. “Our focus is really looking at 2015 as the big year of expansion for the crop,” Fabijanski said at a recent conference in Regina. “For 2015, our anticipation is that we’re really starting at a minimum of 50,000 (acres) … and we’ll scale up to the appropriate demand.” Carinata, also known as Ethiopian mustard, is a relatively new crop to Western Canada. Its primary use is as a source of specialized oil that can be converted into a plant-based aviation fuel. Carinata based rocket fuel was recently used to power jet engines during an experimental test flight in Ottawa. Pilots who flew the test jets reported no decrease in power or performance. High-tech equipment used to measure emissions determined that jet engines using carinata-based fuel burned cleaner and produced fewer airborne contaminants. Carinata was grown on limited acreage in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Fabijanski said production during the past three years was limited, providing enough to meet the company’s needs for testing and product development. Acreage is expected to grow as regulatory approvals are acquired and the fuel is adopted more widely by the aviation industry. Contract carinata production in Western Canada is currently managed through Paterson Grain, which acts as Agrisoma’s exclusive marketing partner for the crop. Fabijanski did not say how much of the crop was seeded this year. Last year’s acreage was “modest” because the company was still waiting on important regulatory approvals, he added. Recent approval to use meal from crushed carinata seed is seen as a key factor in the crop’s expansion. He said the ability to crush the product locally and market the meal will improve logistics and reduce costs associated with extraction and fuel production. Contract production will take place in close proximity to grain handling facilities owned by Paterson. “We’re going to build our production base so it provides the best logistics to Paterson facilities, so it will be in the southern Prairies,” he said. “And depending on where we have our crush arrangements, we’ll be contracting so that it will provide the best logistics to a toll crusher.”

CORN | PRODUCTION FORECAST

Corn potential stunning but crop late Record U.S. production expected | Analyst expects price could dip below $3 per bushel BY SEAN PRATT SASKATOON NEWSROOM

U.S. corn crop forecasts keep getting bigger, and that means prices for corn and other crops will likely fall, says an analyst. The market consensus is that the average corn yield will be much bigger than the 165.3 bushels per acre forecast by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In a Reuters poll of 20 analysts the range of forecasts was 166 to 176 bushels per acre with an average of 170.5. The average yield in 2013 was 158.8. The next U.S. Department of Agriculture forecast is set for Aug. 12. Arlan Suderman, senior market analyst at Water Street Advisory, is also forecasting a bin-busting crop. He uses a yield model based on USDA crop ratings. “It right now puts the corn crop at 170.3 bu. per acre,” he said. A crop that plentiful would shatter the previous record of 164.7 bu. set in 2009. As of July 27 corn was rated 75 percent good-to-excellent, down one percentage point from the week before. Despite the drop, corn ratings have not been better for that week since 2004.

Ready for

harvest

Using the rating from July 20 of 76 percent and assuming it would continue to the end of the growing season, it would produce a crop of 172.8 bu. per acre. Suderman thinks that’s where the number will be when the combines stop rolling. Toby Goodroad, vicepresident of Agri-Trend USA, is skeptical about the forecasts calling for more than 170 bu. per acre. “Everywhere I travel, I’d say the yield potential is extraordinary, there is no doubt about that,” he said. “The issue is that it’s behind.” He believes the crop is two to four weeks delayed, which is significant. “Most of the farmers are pretty optimistic about the crop sitting out there, but they realize they need some heat and they’re going to have to avoid some frosts,” said Goodroad. It makes him wonder if there will be serious quality problems with the crop. Suderman is bearish about shortterm price prospects, but he thinks they will eventually rebound because of expectations for a strong sales program. He thinks there will be “a surprising amount of demand” because of depressed prices and reduced

global competition. The huge U.S. corn crop and lacklustre pricing will deter planting in competing countries. Corn prices in Mato Grosso, Brazil, are $2.20 per bu. A government subsidy sets a floor price of $2.60 but it is still a money-losing venture, considering the cost of production is $3 to $3.50 per bu. Argentina is defaulting on bonds and there is talk about devaluing the peso and increasing interest rates. The conflict in Ukraine and Russia is driving up interest rates in the Black Sea region. Farmers in those key exporting countries rely heavily on bank loans to seed a crop, and Suderman anticipates decreased acreage in Argentina, Russia and Ukraine because corn is far more costly to plant than competing crops. Reduced competition from South America and the Black Sea region should boost U.S. corn exports, helping mop up the burdensome supply. Suderman is forecasting two billion bu. of U.S. ending stocks, which is well below other estimates he has seen of three billion bu. Strong demand will eventually prop up corn prices, but he expects them to initially tumble as the world

comes to grips with the massive U.S. corn crop sitting in the fields. “We’ve probably got quite a bit of downside price risk here,” said Suderman. “I would look for futures prices to probably dip below $3 (per bu.), maybe down to $2.85.” He said there are other reasons for his slumping price forecast in addition to expectations for a huge crop. “Funds love to trade trends, especially down trends and they will trade a down trend as long as they can until they are absolutely proven wrong,” said Suderman. Speculative hedge funds still hold a slight net long position in the corn market. He expects that to turn into a short position soon, which will put further pressure on prices. As well, elevator managers across the U.S. Midwest say many farmers are holding more than 100,000 bu. of old crop corn that will need to move to make room for new crop. “We could have a collapse of both futures and basis at the same time,” said Suderman. “Farmers who are normally 50 percent sold on their new crop are only like 15 percent this year.” He believes prices will rebound by

BUMPER CROP Analysts on average forecast U.S. corn yield at 170.5 bushels per acre. Assuming 83.8 million harvested acres, that would produce a crop of 14.29 billion bu., up from 13.93 billion last year. U.S. corn yields (bu./acre): 200 160 120

75 cents per bu. during the winter to a level similar to today’s values because of strong exports. Goodroad thinks price prospects could be much better than that if the crop doesn’t get the August heat it needs to advance or if there is an early frost. Corn markets could quickly turn bullish if yields turn out to be disappointing. “I would see the prices climb dramatically,” he said.

CATTLE MARKETS | PRICE OUTLOOK

Memorable days for cattle markets; cool summer sparks red hot prices MARKET WATCH

D’ARCE McMILLAN

Packers are using fed cows to make hamburger because non-fed cows are in short supply

T

he summer of 2014 will go down in the record books as a perfect storm of tight cattle supply and surprising consumer demand pushing fed cattle prices to record levels. Cash cattle in Alberta topped $164 per hundredweight last week, a remarkable $44.50, or 37 percent, higher than the same week last year. A tight fed cattle supply has been with us all year, driving cattle prices to record highs. Prices normally fall off in the summer when more yearlings become available and when soaring temperatures cause consumers to turn to lighter meals. However, the cattle are not showing up in the numbers expected based on the monthly USDA cattle on feed reports. Feedlots are up to date in their marketing and, with the price of

feed grains falling, can easily wait out the market and force packers to come to them with stronger prices. U.S. packers have slowed their kill lines, and weekly slaughter this July is the lowest since 1981. The weather has helped turn the demand side bullish. The weather has been cool in the eastern United States. For example, the polar vortex, usually associated with a winter deep freeze, made a summer visit a couple of weeks ago. The high temperature July 17 in Wichita, Kansas, was only 19 C, 16 degrees below average for the middle of July. This week, most of the Midwest was expected to have comfortable temperatures in the low to mid 20s C. So even with high beef prices, consumers are lighting up the barbecue and putting on the burgers. Actually, they are avoiding steaks and high-end cuts, and those prices are trailing off, but the price of cuts used to make hamburger soared last week. Rounds climbed by $21 to $23 per hundredweight, and chucks rose $12-$14. Packers are using fed cattle to make hamburger because non-fed cows are also in short supply. The wholesale beef price has yet to be fully passed on to the consumer. In the U.S., the fresh beef retail average for June rose only .8 percent from May but was up 12 percent over the previous year. Steve Kay’s Cattle Buyers Weekly newsletter said July’s monthly aver-

age would likely be a lot higher than June. It is not just domestic consumers buying this beef. Beef exports from the U.S. and Canada are solid, adding to the overall demand. We’ll see how long consumers continue to buy beef at these prices, but demand, which is a measure of quantity and price, remains strong. U.S. retail beef demand rose 6.7 percent in the second quarter. Can this market strength continue? It will need to stay strong if feedlots are to continue logging profits even as they refill their pens with feeder cattle bought at record high prices. The market-ready fed cattle supply from September on is expected to be tighter than it is now. In the Canadian Cattle Buyer newsletter from the George Morris Centre, Kevin Grier said marketings from feedlots in the fourth quarter would likely be down four percent from last year at the same time. Feed grain costs are down but feedlots have had to pay more for feeder cattle, which means the breakeven for cattle placed in a feedlot this month and marketed at the end of the year will be about $170 US. Fed cattle prices tend to peak in December, but $170 is a lofty goal. Still, the market has surprised with its strength. Follow D’Arce McMillan on Twitter @darcemcmillan.

Crop symptoms are duping farmers into believing root rot is rampant in Saskatchewan’s pulse crops, says an expert. “It’s not an epidemic,” said Dale Risula, special crops specialist with Saskatchewan Agriculture. Growers are watching their pea and lentil crops slowly succumb to what they believe is spreading disease. Larry Weber, owner of Weber Commodities, has been inundated with emails from growers complaining about disease problems causing more damage than clubroot in canola. “By the time (the) overseas trade figures out what is going on with peas and lentils, the severity and scope of the problem, 20 to 40 percent of the production may have disappeared,” he wrote in a recent edition of his daily newsletter. “By the time they realize that this won’t go away next year or the following year, this is going to get real ugly.” Risula has heard the complaints as well, and his team has looked into them. What they have discovered is that the culprit is flooding rather than disease. “There’s no necessity to really panic,” he said. In fact, he is forecasting average pulse production for the province. Pulse crops don’t like wet feet, and a lot of lentil and pea fields stood in water for a long time this spring. The crops are succumbing to oxygen deprivation in the soil during the early stages of crop development. “Ultimately what happens is the plant dies, but it dies fairly slowly,” said Risula. Little by little the plant shows advancing signs of necrosis such as browning, wilting and bending over. It gives the appearance of a disease that is slowly spreading throughout the plant, but Risula said that is not the case. However, the plants are more susceptible to root rot and other diseases because of the flooding stress. There is also the mistaken impression that the disease is slowly spreading from plant to plant in a field. That is because the lowest part of a depression in a field is the first to fill up with water, so plants in the centre of the depression die quicker than those on the outskirts. “You get an optical illusion occurring that it looks like a disease that’s spreading, but actually it’s just a time-delayed thing,” said Risula. Root rot diseases such as fusarium, aphanomyces and rhizoctonia do not spread from plant to plant. They are soil-borne funguses. Risula said it is difficult to say how much damage was caused by flooding because pulses are indeterminate crops that can deliver surprising

results given an open fall. Greg Kostal, president of Kostal Ag Consulting, wrote an article for Saskatchewan Pulse Growers recently speculating that 35 percent of Canada’s lentils and 25 percent of its peas are grown in the wet zone. Risula offered a more conservative guess based on Saskatchewan Agriculture’s estimate that two to three million acres of cropland in the province have been flooded and won’t produce a crop. He said a lot of that land is in southeastern Saskatchewan where fewer peas and lentils are part of farmer rotations than in the southwestern and central areas. Using those estimates, Risula figures 250,000 to 300,000 acres of pulses were affected by flooding, which would represent four percent of the 7.2 million acres of peas and lentils seeded in Western Canada. Risula believes terrific looking crops in other areas of the province will offset the flooding losses. He recently saw crops in the Outlook area that looked “just tremendous.” “I think there is still potential for us to hit an average kind of year for pulse crop production this year,” said Risula. “We’re still on target for that.” Clint Jurke, agronomy specialist for western Saskatchewan with the Canola Council of Canada, said pulses are developing nicely in his area of the province. “From what I heard from other people, the pulses are looking fantastic as a rule, particularly through the west-central areas of Saskatchewan,” he said.

Sungold incentive plan pays for quality lambs Premiums for consistency | Sungold Specialty Meats hopes the premium will encourage producers to expand flocks BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

INNISFAIL, Alta. — A pricing grid that rewards producers for selling quality lamb could be an incentive to increase the Canadian flock. “If you are in the business, you are going to want to get the best price you can,” said Dwayne Beaton, chief executive officer of Sungold Specialty Meats in Innisfail. Sungold wants to place more quality Canadian lamb in the domestic marketplace, but it needs consistent carcasses and regular supply. The pricing grid rewards producers who sell properly finished lambs on time with empty stomachs and clean wool. The best premium from June to September last year was $12.22 per head with an average of $6.68. Half of the producers selling to Sungold received an extra $7.81 per head. This year, from April to June, the highest premium was $12.91 and more than half received an extra $10 per head. The smallest bonus was $3.19. “Producers are beginning to pay attention to the grid and are working to achieve the benefits of it,” said Beaton. They are seeing fewer over-fat lambs or animals with physical problems. “The overall consistency of the majority of the lambs has improved,” said Miles Kliner of Sungold. Some of the improvement may be the result of Alberta flocks growing larger. It is easier to manage greater numbers to achieve consistency among the lambs. The company also offers contracts to ease some of the seasonality of the

Sungold hopes to encourage producers to adjust lambing cycles so product is available year round, allowing the company to reduce the need to import lambs from the U.S. | FILE PHOTO business when lambs are in short supply. Sungold hopes this may encourage producers to change their production cycles or try three lambings in two years. It could also reduce the need to import lambs from the United States to keep the plant operating during slow seasons. Beaton also said producers need to understand it is important to fulfill these contracts for the stated month and offer lambs of the best weight because it needs a consistent supply. Sungold is looking for 95 to 109 pound lambs and has been able to offer better prices than some of its competitors. The company also hopes to keep more lambs on the

Prairies rather than sending them to Ontario. New alternative markets are appearing with a renewed focus on food service rather than retail, said Kliner. Most recently, the company started to supply lamb ribs to Stage West, a Calgary dinner theatre. Mutton sales are also improving, and exports to Mexico could result if expected regulatory changes come this fall. Pet food sales allow Sungold to fully use a carcass. A new pet food line is coming that offers kibble as well as dehydrated treats made from sheep liver, lungs or testicles. Bones and ears for dog chews are another possibility. Mutton cut into large pieces can go

to zoos. Another marketing opportunity is developing an enhanced welfare program that covers care of animals from the farm to the plant. It also addresses the concerns over transporting lambs long distances to Ontario. Lambs could be processed in Alberta and shipped east as boxed meat, said Beaton. Of particular interest to Sungold is a potential deal with Sobeys. The grocery chain wants to expand its line of certified humane beef, pork and poultry to include lamb. Beaton said most producers could easily be certified.

lots in June fell six percent from a year ago as plentiful grazing land allowed animals to be fattened longer outside of feedlots. A U.S. Department of Agriculture report released July 25 was expected to support live cattle futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. At the market’s open July 28, August rose to fresh record high of 160.25 cents per pound. It dr ifted lower but closed at 159.425, a new record settlement, driven by record high cash cattle and beef prices. Feedlots are drawing from a shallow pool of market-ready animals after years of drought in parts of the country shrunk the herd to the lowest level in 63 years. Most of the livestock that moved into feeding pens in June will come to market beginning in November, and should keep cattle and beef prices near record highs into next year, said analysts. The USDA report showed June placements at 1.455 million head, down six percent from 1.551 million a year earlier. Analysts, on average, had expected a 3.4 percent decrease. It was the lowest placement result for

John Ginzel, an analyst with Linn Group, partly attributed the lighter-

t ha n - e x p e c t e d p l a c e m e nt s t o drought in California and the western states. Fewer cattle are entering feedlots now in California after prolonged dryness drove up feed and hay prices, he said. On the other hand, the USDA data released July 25 suggests that some feedlots in the Plains have expanded their placements in anticipation of

another bumper corn crop this fall, said Ginzel. The USDA put the feedlot cattle supply as of July 1 at 10.127 million head, down two percent from 10.375 million a year earlier. Analysts polled by Reuters forecast an average decline of 1.7 percent. The two percent feedlot supply reduction reflects the report’s smaller placement figure, said analysts. The government said the number of cattle sold to packers was down two percent in June from a year earlier to 1.847 million head. Analysts projected a drop of two percent from 1.88 million last year. It was the smallest marketing figure for the month since USDA began the data set in 1996. The department also issued the twice-annual cattle report for July, which was reinstated after being discontinued last year because of budget cuts. The data showed the U.S. cattle herd as of July 1 at 97 percent of 2012, or 95 million head, and the lowest for July since the series began in 1973. “The results are not meaningful since we don’t have year ago numbers,” said Plain.

EUROPEAN CROPS | OUTLOOK

Concerns grow over damage to EU wheat quality Heavy rain | While European farmers assess damage, Russian farmers are harvesting a bigger than expected crop PARIS, France (Reuters) — Europe is heading toward a large wheat harvest this year but concerns are mounting that a larger than normal amount of it could only be fit to feed animals after recent heavy rain. But in Russia, production estimates are rising as farmers enjoy excellent harvest weather. IKAR, a leading agriculture consultancy in Russia, increased its wheat forecast to 57.5 million tonnes from an earlier forecast of 56.3 million tonnes. Western Europe saw another rainy weekend. Damage levels are unclear for now with farmers and analysts still assessing the state of crops as harvesting resumes, but there is little doubt

there be will less wheat meeting milling standards than initially thought. “In light of the good yields expected, we can still hope to see a good milling wheat output but we are certainly heading towards a lower quality than average,” Benoit Fayaud from analysts Strategie Grains said. “In my district, it’s hard to find crop that meets export standards,” Christophe Buisset, a farmer and head of the regional agriculture agency in Picardy a province in northern France. “The quality is bad; we were taken aback by the Hagberg numbers.” The quality issue mainly concerned western Europe, Romania and Bulgaria, Fayaud said. Strategie Grains last week raised its

monthly estimate for soft wheat production in the European Union to 140.5 million tonnes, now four percent above last year’s crop. In France, the EU’s largest wheat producer and exporter, operators said only 30 percent of the crop had been cut as of July 23 after rain delayed harvesting. Field work was resuming around Paris and in eastern France with initial results showing some damage, mainly in the measurement of milling quality, known as Hagberg numbers. Average Hagberg could fall as low as 140-160 seconds in France this year. Last year, almost all of the crop met the key level of 220 seconds, traders said.

“What was still good milling wheat 15 days ago has just become feed wheat,” a broker in eastern France said. Premiums for higher quality wheat have soared in French ports on fears that this year’s harvest would be poor quality. Meanwhile, feed wheat has been sold at a discount as traders anticipate hefty supplies of lowquality wheat. But some French traders were more cautious. In Germany, the European Union’s second largest wheat producer, rain fell just as harvesting started, raising concerns of loss of quality and that some of the crop had been flattened. “However, the picture is still unclear and we do not know if dam-

age has been suffered nor the possible extent,” an analyst said. “Weather in the north and northeast of the country has been much better and I do not think there will be any quality problems in north Germany.” About 15 percent of Germany’s crop had been harvested last week. Germany’s farm co-operatives association on July 7 predicted the 2014 wheat crop would rise 1.8 percent on the year to 25.46 million tonnes. In Britain, the wheat harvest has barely begun but the outlook is generally favourable. The International Grains Council has forecast a United Kingdom wheat crop of 15.5 million tonnes, up 30 percent from last season.

seen extremely wide weight ranges on lots, as much as 250 pounds, but buying interest has been firm. Alberta auction volumes totalled 6,991 head, down 10 percent from 2013. Weekly feeder exports to July 12 were 1,678 head, down 41 percent from the same week last year. The small barley seeded acreage in Canada and expectation of a record U.S. corn crops means Canadian feedlots could be at a cost of gain disadvantage, raising the risk of more

There was strong support from the U.S. market with cash prices soaring about $7 cwt. to a new record of $162 in Kansas. Chicago live cattle futures also set records, as did U.S. beef cutouts. U.S. packers were caught short because they had been delaying purchases in expectation of rising market-ready supply that did not materialize. Also, the mild summer is encouraging more meat consumption, and consumers don’t seem to be put off by the record beef prices. Canadian feedlots were aggressive, asking for rail grade prices of $280 per cwt. or more. It forced packers to pay $278-$280, which was about $77 higher than last year. The cash-to-futures fed basis weakened to -$2.76. This year’s western Canadian slaughter is running 10 percent ahead of last year’s pace. Weekly fed exports to July 12 were 5,729 head, up almost 50 percent

COW PRICES RISE Non-fed supplies have started to moderate, and producers are current in their marketings. Good hamburger demand is supporting prices. Prices tend to rally going into August before drifting lower into late summer. D1, D2 cows were $112-$128 to average $120.67, up $4.47. D 3 cows were $100-$118 to average $110.13, up $5.88. Slaughter bulls were $131.25, up $3.90.

FEEDERS STRONG The feeder cattle market was supported by rising fed cattle prices and falling feed grain prices. The market was mixed in light trade, but the averages saw steers rise almost $5 and heifers climb $1.36. Buyers appear to be paying a premium for larger lots of cattle. Competition for yearlings is strong, but a good portion of Saskatchewan and Manitoba yearlings are moving into Alberta feedlots. Trading on electronic auctions has

SHOCKING BEEF PRICES U.S. boxed beef prices soared to new records with Choice up $5.75 at $255.56 US per cwt. and Select up $8.60 at $252.84. Round and chuck cuts rose on good demand for hamburger. June U.S. beef retail prices were up 12 to 13 percent from last year, while pork was up 14 percent and broilers were down two percent .

OPINION

PEST CONTROL | WILD BOAR

CRAIG’S VIEW

Threat from feral wild boar requires concerted gov’t effort

T

he Canadian Prairies might face a new boar war as the number and destructive capacity of feral pigs increases. Provinces need a co-ordinated response to the threat before the numbers of this imported pest grow too large. The call to arms against wild boars is best laid out by Ryan Brook, a researcher at the University of Saskatchewan’s agriculture college. After years of researching wild boars using trail cameras triggered by passing wildlife, Brook and colleague Floris van Beest from Aarhus University in Denmark have concluded that wild boar populations are larger and more dispersed than originally thought. Populations are still small in most areas, but that could change quickly. A breeding female can have two litters of six or more piglets a year and, with few natural predators, most mature to adults, Brook says. If not controlled, there is the potential for numbers to explode and cause problems like in the United States, where damage tops $1 billion in lost crops, livestock harassment and damage to the ecosystem. The boars, native to Europe, were introduced to the Prairies in the 1980s and 1990s when struggling farmers experimented with alternative livestock in a search for profitable diversification options. Hunt farms sprang up but it was difficult to keep the intelligent and resourceful boars fenced in. A number escaped and established free roaming populations. They eat most things, from plants to small creatures such as salamanders to bird eggs. Brook likens them to rototillers for their practice of rooting up acres of ground with their tusks. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says feral swine are highly mobile disease reservoirs and can carry at least 30 viral and bacterial diseases in addition to 37 parasites that affect people, pets, livestock and wildlife. All three prairie provinces encourage hunt-

ing of these animals. There is no restriction on shooting them aside from getting the landowner’s approval. Alberta also has a $50 a head bounty. Saskatchewan provides $50,000 a year to the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities to help municipalities eradicate the animals. Manitoba has declared the whole province a wild boar control area with wide open hunting throughout the year. However, it is nearly impossible to control populations with sport hunting alone. Wild boars are difficult to spot. They are mostly nocturnal and evade humans. Experts say the entire boar cell must be killed or survivors become more evasive. Aggressive control techniques are needed, including spotting and hunting from aircraft and using bait to attract the entire cell into a corral trap where they can be shot. The USDA is testing the use of sodium nitrite as a humane poison. Australia has used it to sharply reduce populations. Alberta just introduced new fencing requirements for commercial boar farms and ranches to be phased in over five years. Such standards are needed in every province. The number of wild boar operations still operating in Western Canada is now down to a handful, but they must be monitored. By next year, feral pigs will be included in the federal livestock identification program and will need to be ear tagged. This should help identify and fine operations that allow animals to escape. It would be wise for all prairie provinces to adopt similar controls for wild boar operations. They should also fund monitoring and eradication efforts similar to Alberta’s successful rat eradication plan. A modest investment today will avoid much larger costs down the road.

PUBLIC POLICY | EXTREMES OUT-SHOUT MIDDLE OF THE ROAD

Latest gun debate reflects increasing polarization of public debate CAPITAL LETTERS

KELSEY JOHNSON

I

f the recent reaction is any indication, the latest government efforts to overhaul Canadian gun laws this fall is likely to spark yet another testy and emotional debate on gun ownership in this country. In a July 23 announcement, public safety minister Steven Blaney told reporters the Conservative government plans to introduce new legislation that would ease restrictions on gun transportation and allow for a renewal grace period for gun owners who’s licences have expired. Right now, gun owners with expired licenses risk immediate jail time, which Blaney said was “not acceptable.” People should not be criminal-

ized for paperwork errors, he said. Under the Common Sense Firearms Licensing Act, those with expired licences would not be allowed to buy ammunition or new guns but would no longer face possible jail time because of the lapse in licence. The length of the proposed grace period has not been set. The new rules would also decree mandatory firearms safety courses for first-time gun owners, combine the two existing licences into one and change the Criminal Code to prevent individuals convicted of domestic abuse from legally owning guns. Public and political reaction to the announcement was instantaneous. Gun owners and firearms groups, along with several Conservative MPs, took to Twitter to praise the federal government’s ongoing efforts to remove bureaucratic red tape from the file. They said the move was the natural next step now that the highly controversial long gun registry is defunct. Opponents disagreed.

The Coalition for Gun Control said the proposed legislation was a step “backwards.” While other countries are strengthening their gun laws, Canada’s laws were growing weaker by the day, the group charged. Many more opponents, mainly members of the general public, were seething on Twitter, expressing their dismay by how far Canada’s gun legislation had sunk. Several folks even went as far as to accuse all gun owners of being potential murderers, accusations that were rapidly shot down by gun supporters. One is wise to avoid reading too much into Twitter reaction, considering the ongoing debate amongst journalists about its accuracy. However, the slew of comments on the gun file is indicative of a growing trend in conversations about Canadian policy. Lately, it seems, debate on controversial subjects such as gun control is too often mired in extremes. Those who are vehemently in support of something butt heads in dramatic fashion with those who are just as

opposed, while middle-of-the-road debate is tossed to the sidelines. While radical points of view have always existed in debate, the rise of social media now means these extremes are easily accessible. The risk, then, is that these outermost viewpoints, which tend to garner a lot of reaction, can sometimes overpower moderate debate. Reactionary debate is also more likely to push people’s buttons and force individuals to take a stand on an issue they may know little to nothing about. GMO debate, anyone? Forcing people to make up their minds is a strategy that political parties have often used in the lead-up to elections as a way of gathering more party support. With a federal election looming in the wings, each party is now attempting to distinguish itself from the other. Triggering debate on emotional subjects is a tried-and-true way of doing just that. Amending gun legislation plays to the Conservative base: often farmers, hunters and gun enthusiasts sick and

tired of jumping through one bureaucratic hoop after another. Throw in the words “common sense” in the bill’s title and already the Tories have an edge because who can argue with common sense? Those who do risk being accused by the Conservatives of favouring red tape, or worse. Debate in this country is becoming more politicized by the day with an “us against them” mind-set managing to creep into policy chatter far too often. Not all Canadians are gun owners, nor are all Canadians against owning guns. Politicians and stakeholders would be wise to remember there is a role for guns in this country just as there is a need for ensuring public safety. Respectful, middle of the road debate with opinions and viewpoints from all sides is a Canadian tradition and one worth protecting before it’s too late.

& OPEN FORUM HEMP | UNTAPPED POTENTIAL

BSE | CONSUMER REACTION

Is hemp our next Cinderella crop?

Consumers defied Hollywood on BSE impact

BY RUSS CRAWFORD

I

n the April 17 issue of The Western Pro ducer, the question was posed: “Will Canada ever develop another canola or deliver a discovery that revolutionizes global agriculture?” I think the answer to that is an emphatic “yes,” and the crop that can do that is hemp: Cinderella 2.0. Industrial hemp is quite possibly the most important plant on earth. Its DNA structure is closely aligned with human DNA, so it offers protein, omegas and dietary fibre in perfect proportion to our nutritional needs. Hemp is naturally gluten free, non-genetically modified, free of trypsin inhibitors, dairy free and virtually free of any form of residual chemicals. Hemp protein is highly nutritious and easily digested, and hemp seed oil is cold pressed to retain all of its natural nutritional value. Hemp seed oil is a perfect balance of omega 3-69, which is ideally suited for optimal human nutrition. The hemp plant also provides a strong, durable, long-lasting natural soft bats fibre. It has the characteristics to provide durable clothing, shelter, building materials and hightech composite fibre applications. Hemp has proven to be an excellent natural insulator and fire retardant. It has applications as a high quality pressboard material, hempcrete, composite and plastic substrate product. The value of industrial hemp as a medicine remains undiscovered, but it contains important building blocks for an abundant source of medicinal applications based on early stage

Hemp’s development is similar to where canola was decades ago. | scientific testing and results. Equally important are the agronomic advantages. Industrial hemp is environmentally friendly with low input requirements and beneficial returns to the soil and atmosphere. It is an excellent rotation crop with a high return per acre, even without the huge investment in science and research experienced by other crop alternatives in Canada over the past decades, such as canola, flax and peas. Is industrial hemp really the next canola? Could it replicate the phenomenal success and value to Canadian agriculture? No one can answer those questions definitively, but we see the same configuration of circumstances when we look at the history of canola based on

FILE PHOTO

where it started, what it had to offer and the coming together of a group of passionate and visionary people to elevate the crop to its present status as one of the highest quality oils in the world. In fact, hemp’s value-added potential in the food, fibre and medicinal sectors could well surpass the success of canola as a source of oil for human consumption and meal for animal feed. It is not unrealistic to imagine high quality food components of hemp seed finding their way into a host of products as supplemental ingredients. The world’s aging population will be the ideal market for natural, nutritious food and supplements, which can offer extended years of health and vitality. Many stigmas need to be addressed

because of hemp’s shared genealogical pool with marijuana. The legalization process of medical marijuana is softening the message, but at the same time, leaves the door open for continued confusion and the assumption that hemp and marijuana are the same. They most definitely are not. After 15 years of legal production of industrial hemp in Canada, what is preventing it from achieving its full potential? Why hasn’t it happened already? In a word: regulation. Hemp is an oilseed like canola, but it rests under the watchful and restrictive eye of Health Canada and remains classified as a Schedule 2 controlled substance. How is a food product ever going to be considered for mainstream commercialization as long as government agencies classify it and demonize it as a drug? It is time to decriminalize industrial hemp. At the risk of over dramatizing the situation, the hemp industry is at a critical crossroads, which the Canadian government can either support or suppress. The renaissance of hemp is possible but it requires vision, effort and commitment on the part of government leaders and industry stakeholders. The need for action is immediate because the U.S. market is opening its doors to hemp production. Our voice is small: 85,000 acres of hemp versus 20 million acres of canola. However, canola’s voice was also a small one in the 1960s, and look where it is now. Is hemp Cinderella 2.0? It could be. Russ Crawford is president of the Canadian Hemp Trade Alliance.

CROP TOURS | SPOTTING THE ERRORS

There’s much to learn while taking a road trip HURSH ON AG

KEVIN HURSH

T

he successes and failures are on display for all to see. Every road trip, short or long, is a crop tour at this time of year. You can’t tell much from a doublelane highway, but get off on the side roads and every field has a story to tell. This year, conditions range from flooding to drought, but there are also areas with good to excellent crops. In those regions, the differences from one field to the next are largely dependent on operator skill, luck and investment. Seeding misses stick out like sore thumbs and have a habit of occurring right beside main roads. Seed

blockage monitors have become more common, but many producers still operate without them. Every year you see some large seeding misses that continue pass after pass in a field. Fertilizer misses aren’t quite as obvious but probably occur with even more regularity. A phosphate miss on a pulse crop may not be visible, but the difference in crop vigour is obvious if the nitrogen stops on canola or a cereal. Inoculant misses also occur, often due to bridging of granular product in the tank. Weed control efforts are also on display for every passerby to assess. Statistics say early weeds are the ones that rob the most yield, but early weed control can mean that late weed flushes are missed, resulting in a messy looking crop by this time of year. Weed control is relatively easy in canola, and the crop is so competitive you don’t usually see weed issues from the road. However, weed control is all over

the map in crops such as lentils. Clearfield lentil varieties will typically have less wild mustard and volunteer canola, but Group 2 resistant kochia can be a problem in all varieties. As well, the lentil canopy doesn’t hide many weeds. Herbicide application errors can be detected if you watch closely. Stunted canola on the first sprayer pass can be a sign of herbicide residue. Sometimes, the damage reduces as the boom is flushed out. Other times, one or two spray tanks will sustain damage. Residue either from the tank or from the preceding year could be the culprit if a crop of canola, peas or lentils seems unusually poor for the area. This year, there have also been reports of surprising disease issues that have devastated pulse crops. You can also spot who has invested the most in fertilizer when rain has been ample but not excessive. A 60 bushel per acre canola crop can be next to a 30 or 40 bu. crop. While crop rotation, seeding depth and variety

choice may all be playing a role, the main reason for the stark visual difference often comes down to the fertilizer application rate. Farmers use different equipment while working under different time restrictions and budgetary constraints. Some use a high level of inputs aiming for maximum yields, while others are more cautious, knowing that the inputs will be wasted some years. There are different philosophies, different crop rotations and different marketing objectives. As well, we all make mistakes from time to time, so we shouldn’t be too quick to judge a neighbour who doesn’t have the best looking crop. However, it’s the time of year when you can learn a lot about what’s working and what isn’t and the pitfalls to avoid. You just need to keep your head on a pivot as you drive around.

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK

BRUCE DYCK, COPY EDITOR

C

all me late for the party, but I’ve finally got around to watching The West Wing. The critically acclaimed television drama, which ran from 1999 to 2006, was about the staff of a fictional U.S. president played by Martin Sheen. It’s a bit old now, but many of the issues the show dealt with 15 years ago are still relevant today and often make for riveting television. Particularly interesting was an episode from the third season, which among other things dealt with the implications of a potential BSE case in the United States. Keep in mind that this episode aired Nov. 28, 2001, one and a half years before BSE was discovered in Canada and more than two years before it was found in the U.S. In the episode, the president and his senior staff are convinced that the country’s beef industry, and all of its economic spinoffs, will collapse if it turns out to be true that BSE is present in American cattle. In a key scene, the president asks his chief of staff what will happen to the country’s beef supply if the case turns out to be positive. “Well, FSIS (Food Safety and Inspection Service) will do a Class 1 recall and get it off the shelves,” he says. “Not that they need to. Nobody’s going to buy beef for a couple years.” Responds the president: It’s a $150 billion industry. What’s the West going to do for a living?” CoS: “Well, this generation of ranchers is done. They won’t get back on their feet.… Once we announce a positive, steak houses are done. Fast food is done.” President: “Any good news?” CoS: “For fishermen.” The writers were wrong, of course. BSE did indeed have devastating consequences for cattle producers, but not because North American consumers stopped eating beef. In fact, the opposite was true. Beef consumption in Canada went up in the months following the catastrophic announcement of May, 20, 2003, as consumers rallied around the country’s beleaguered cattle producers. This was in sharp contrast to other parts of the world, where consumers avoided the beef counter in droves. It was a fascinating phenomenon to watch as the BSE crisis unfolded that summer, and remains a curious footnote in the history of this unhappy time. I’m sure there are sociological and cultural reasons to explain why North American consumers weren’t afraid of what the media still calls mad cow disease, but it caught a lot of people off-guard, including the Hollywood script writers.

The farmer-elected directors were dismissed halfway through the 201011 crop year, Mr. DePape points out, which is when the speculators, brokers, and grain companies started to pick off farmers by offering forward contracts, and things have gotten much worse since. Mr. DePape attempts a numbers game using the basis. Basis is supposedly the cost to finance, elevate, transport, clean, and load grain. Now there is no transparency and the basis numbers are simply whatever the grain companies, who happen to control the port terminals and heavily influence the futures market, say they are. A while ago Mr. DePape was complaining about a lack of transparency

from the private trade. How about forcing the western grain elevators cartel to disclose the prices they were actually getting each day during this crop year? The grain trains to Vancouver were running at 98 percent of capacity so somebody was moving a lot of grain and selling it, but it wasn’t farmers because we lose ownership of our grain as soon as we dump it at the country elevator. Most people outside the private trade acknowledge that farmers are getting less than half of what the single-desk CWB got for them when it was operating. Let the elevator cartel prove them wrong by opening their books. Ken Larsen, Benalto, Alta.

LOOKING FORWARD To the Editor: Re: Eric Sagan’s letter “Unusual wheat cheque”, WP July 10. Mr. Sagan’s conspiracy theory is the latest example of how he and a small few will always remain stuck in the past. Our government was elected on a platform to give western Canadian grain farmers the marketing freedom they wanted and deserved and we were proud to deliver on their behalf. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of western Canadian farmers continue to take advantage of the increased opportunity that comes

with marketing freedom. That is why we are seeing record operating incomes, increased acres of wheat and barley planted, and record exports of top quality wheat and barley. At every step, Canadian courts continue to uphold a farmer’s right to make their living from the open market. Mr. Sagan and his CWBA (Canadian Wheat Board Alliance) friends continue to lose case after case before the courts, and in doing so continue to prove that not only is marketing freedom the law of the land, but it is here to stay. Had Mr. Sagan bothered to check on the CWB website, he would know that during the final reconciliation

DEMOCRACY AT HOME To the Editor: In the beginning of 2014, Conservative Party of Canada sent out a circular to members that the party would have open nominations in preparation for the 2015 election. In June of this year a press release was sent out stating that (prime minister Stephen) Harper had approximately 100 of his MPs nominated. On that list is the name of the local MP, Robert Sopuck. Did I miss something? Did anyone see, hear or read about an open nomination taking place in Dauphin-Swan River-Marquette? So how did Robert Sopuck get nominated in 2014? This will be the third time that Robert Sopuck has been named by his party without going through a nomination process. Robert Sopuck’s nomination was really a rubber stamp of approval from his leader, Stephen Harper. So much for democracy under Stephen Harper. I always thought that democracy should begin at home. Robert Sopuck has been a loyal mouthpiece for Stephen Harper during his years in Ottawa. Do you want four more years of the same? Inky Mark, former MP, Dauphin, Man.

OPEN THE BOOKS To the Editor: In his latest op-ed (WP, July 3), John DePape, a critic of orderly marketing, ignores the fact many independent academics, transportation experts, and those with direct experience in grain marketing have all come to the conclusion the private grain trade has engineered one of the largest profit grabs in Canadian history thanks to the end of the single desk Canadian Wheat Board. In spite of selective country elevators being plugged, the independent grain monitor reported the overall export grain/rail system was running at 95 percent capacity and just over 98 percent capacity to Vancouver. And somebody at (agriculture minister Gerry) Ritz’s CWB spilled the beans that the port price for #2 CWRS wheat was north of $11 per bushel. Mr. DePape attempts to draw attention away from this by claiming the last year with the single-desk CWB was as bad. However, the single desk effectively died when Ritz broke his word and tabled legislation to kill the wheat board.

A twinkle in God’s eye SPIRITUAL VIGNETTES

hat a delightful image, imagining there to be a “twinkle in God’s eye.” That was foremost in Walter Farquharson’s thoughts, years ago, when he wrote selections for his children’s song book, Just Like Salt. Reflecting on the creation story, one song refers to dancing waters and leaves, singing birds and fish and images of happy people and twinkling stars. The young choristers hear God say, “I am pleased.” Behold the whole wide world. Behold the twinkle in God’s eye. Take notice also of the caterpillar. The way it moves makes you laugh. Play with the words: pillar-cat, caterpiggle, squirm and wiggle, caterpillage, munch the village. Can’t you hear children giggle as they sing, “thank you God … for helping me make it all the way to amen.” What better way to introduce children to godly values than by learning to Pray in the Tub. “I prayed to God from right there in the tub, to give the whole world a vigorous scrub; to clean away what does not belong, to get busy right now and fix what’s wrong.” They think about children who don’t have food and water, who live in a world that doesn’t know how to share. Think about it during your next bath. “You’ll be surprised what caring can do.” The title song spells it out: “Jesus said that we should be just like salt. And if the world forgets God, guess whose fault.” It’s fun to do some finger pointing. “It’s yours.… It’s mine.… It’s ours.” With reminders like these, we can imagine a “twinkle in God’s eye.”

LAND CONSERVATION | EASEMENT

Easement ensures land will continue producing food Ranchers eager to preserve countryside for future generations BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

COCHRANE, Alta. —The craggy face of Harvey Buckley may be that of the true environmentalist. He and his wife, Margaret, have placed 800 acres of their historic southern Alberta ranch under a conservation easement to protect land that has more value to them than just

its economic appraisal. The undulating land north of their home near Cochrane is covered with bluebells, gaillardia, wild roses, cinquefoil and waving grasses. There are outcroppings of rock left behind from the last ice age. Natural springs feed into creeks that eventually flow into the Bow River. The Rocky Mountains are to the west, Calgary is to the east, a First Nations reserve is on the

north and a gas plant on the south. “It has never seen a plow and obviously it never will,� Harvey said. A decision to place land under conservation easement is part of a succession plan for their family and society. They worked with the Southern Alberta Land Trust Society (SALTS) and their adult children. Rancher John, lawyer Bruce and daughter Carolyn Walker were all in agreement when the couple sought protection for the operation, which has been in the family for more than 70 years. “If Margaret had her way, she would put the whole ranch under a conservation easement,� Harvey said. However, about one-third of their deeded land, or 1,000 acres, is farmed while the rest is grassland. Current laws do not allow cultivated land to go into easements. “To us it was a matter of saving this beautiful country and the creek and riparian areas because for future generations there won’t be any left all the way to the Hudson Bay,� Margaret said. Her family came to Calgary in 1884, and she grew up at the edge of the city with farms across the street. She shared a vision with Harvey to protect the land and water for food production and aesthetics. A long-time warrior fighting to protect agriculture from urbanization, Harvey is head of Action for Agriculture, a small but dedicated group that supports planning to protect and conserve farmland. The area west of Calgary is made up of land that was homesteaded and ranched more than 100 years ago. Farms and ranches were consolidated over time and other holdings were sold to developers eager to build golf courses and country residences. “I don’t know if you are ever safe from development,� he said. Visitors have suggested some of their land would be an ideal spot for a golf course. “It just makes me shudder,� he said. “People don’t realize how dependent each one of us is on this land, even the guy who is living in the 23rd storey of some condo in downtown Calgary. They don’t understand where their water or their groceries come from.� Conservation easements are tailored to the landowner and are typically granted in perpetuity. They remain attached to the land title regardless of ownership. No subdivision or environmentally damaging forms of development are allowed. Several land trusts operate in the province, but the Buckley’s selected SALTS because its board of directors consists of farmers and ranchers. An independent baseline report was conducted for the Buckley agreement over five days to assess the land’s riparian areas and biodiversity. A market value appraisal and an environmental assessment were also conducted. “We lost something like $3.5 million in value as soon as we put that

conservation easement on it,� Harvey said. “People say, ‘how are you going to replace that if you wanted to develop it?’ If we wanted to break it into 20 acre acreages, that $3.5 million wouldn’t pay for all the infrastructure required.� The Buckleys retain their title to the ranch, and the agreement sets out what can and cannot be done. There are no plans to change the management of 70 years. The six quarters will be grazed in the fall and next spring until the middle of June. No cattle will be back until the fall of 2016. “Next spring, it will be just like your mowed lawn, then we give it a rest,� he said. “We wanted to preserve that and let it function as it has been doing and let it produce food and water. The food happens to be beef,� he said. Harvey and Margaret are dedicated conservationists who joined the Society for Range Management. As well, Harvey started to travel to land trust conferences in the 1990s to learn more. The next step is learning how to make new land use laws in Alberta work for them. He is concerned about political arguments over the Alberta Land Stewardship Act, which he sees as enabling legislation to help landowners protect property. It includes regulations on how that may be done. He and his family want society to appreciate what the land has to offer and the importance of saving it for future generations. “There is no place in the world we have been where you can drive out and you can see the mountains with landscape in front,� Margaret said. “It is the most beautiful site there is, and they are ruining it because they are developing it.� They hope that what they have done may influence their neighbours to consider a similar plan. “People have to learn you are not independent anymore,� Harvey said. “You are interdependent, and they haven’t made that distinction yet.�

Conservation of rangelands and ranching communities: Easements conserve ranchlands by preventing conversion to non-ranching uses, maintaining agricultural opportunities for future generations. Financial incentives: Landowners may qualify for an income tax deduction if the easement is a charitable donation. The appraised value of the property on which an easement has been placed may be lowered through the relinquishment of development rights, which can reduce capital gains when the land is sold or transferred. In certain circumstances, conservation easements can be sold to an eligible organization to reduce debt and provide return for non-farming heirs. Accommodation of landowners’ concerns: Terms can be negotiated around the desires and needs of the landowner as well as the objectives of the participating organization. Protection can be provided for the property’s environmental and agricultural features. Option to work with a private, local organization: Conservation easements are frequently administered by private organizations, many of which are locally based and community-driven. This can bypass the unintended delays often associated with government agencies. A land trust is a not-for-profit, non-government organization established to promote biodiversity conservation on private land. Land trusts operating in Alberta are eligible to apply for a grant but must provide other funding and demonstrate that their project aligns with the government’s overall conservation objectives. The Alberta land trust grant program focuses on conserving ecologically important areas to prevent habitat fragmentation, maintain biodiversity and preserve native landscapes. Grants are available to land trust organizations to buy conservation easements as well as manage new conservation projects on private land.

Farmers to get controversial chemical next year Combination of 2,4-D and glyphosate | The new product is approved in Canada but not yet in the United States BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

CARMAN, Man. — Jeff Loessin made an observation that was impossible to miss while squatting down to examine soybean plants in a plot trial. One row of beans was perfectly clean and the next row was inundated with volunteer canola. Loessin, a portfolio marketing leader for crop protection with Dow Agrosciences, said the weed-filled row was treated with glyphosate. The other row received a new version of 2,4-D and glyphosate and possessed genetics from Dow’s new Enlist technology: herbicide tolerance for glyphosate and 2,4-D. Many soybean fields in Manitoba are rife with volunteer canola, but Loessin said Enlist also combats other problem weeds. “From a weed spectrum standpoint in Western Canada, we’ve got a number of weeds, particularly (wild) buckwheat and volunteer canola, that tend to cause straight glyphosate a fair bit of issue,” he said during a recent tour of Dow’s trial site east of Carman. Dow plans to commercially launch its highly touted, highly controversial Enlist weed control system next year in Ontario and Quebec. “From an Eastern Canada standpoint, corn will be sometime in 2015 and soybeans will be sometime in ’16,” Loessin said. “I would anticipate, just because of hybrid or variety availability, that Western Canada would be a year behind.” Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency registered Enlist technology last year, but official approval in the United States is still pending. “The U.S. hasn’t fully approved it. They’ve issued their draft (registration) … (but) they’re not quite there yet,” Loessin said. Dow was hoping to launch Enlist last year, but the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency took extra care to review the herbicide tolerant technology, which uses a new version of 2,4-D known as Colex-D. American environmental groups lobbied vigorously against Enlist, claiming 2,4-D causes Hodgkin’s disease, birth defects and other health complications. Weed scientists also spoke out against the technology, noting it would be a short-term fix and eventually hasten the spread of herbicide tolerant weeds in North America. “I’m not opposed to stacked traits … (but) we tend to find something

that works really well and overuse it to the exclusion of other things that we should be trying,” said Neil Harker, weed ecology and crop management expert with Agriculture Canada in Lacombe, Alta. “It’s a nice system to use in the short term, but if it’s overused, you run into trouble.” Loessin said Dow has developed a stewardship plan to prevent farmers from relying on one weed control technology. “In Eastern Canada, the message is very clear. We want to see a soil

applied herbicide applied ahead of the corn and soybeans,” he said. “That’s an absolute must in Eastern Canada because those guys are in a corn, soybeans, corn.” Loessin said overuse of the technology and the likelihood of weed resistance to 2,4-D and glyphosate are less of a concern in Western Canada. “In Western Canada, the same message is coming across (soil applied herbicide),” he said. “But the other thing at play in Western Canada is we have a better crop rotation. That crop rotation brings a

herbicide rotation.” Loessin said Enlist is solely for corn and soybeans and not canola. “From a business standpoint, we don’t see an expressed need in canola the way we do in corn and soybeans,” he said. “There are other herbicide options in canola that people can use to help enhance their control. There are other systems beyond just the glyphosate system.” Seventeen Ontario farmers are growing Enlist corn this year as part of a field trial of the product. The corn

will remain on-farm and be fed to pigs or dairy cows. The U.S. is expected to fully approve Enlist later this year, but Dow still needs to satisfy regulations in a couple of key export markets for North American corn and soybeans. Loessin said import approvals are progressing in South Korea and the European Union, but China is a wild card. “In China we’re working through the process there,” Loessin said. “Obviously, with Chinese trade approvals it’s complicated, to say the least.”

TABER, Alta. — The next two weeks are crucial in the life of southern Alberta corn plants. The thirsty crop will use six millimetres of moisture per day once plants reach the tassel stage, so producers need to keep up with their irrigation plans. “As we move into this tassel time … that’s the highest peak water demand for the crop, all through the silking and pollination phase and a little bit after,” said DuPont Pioneer agronomist Nicole Rasmussen. Corn roots can extend a metre deep, but 70 percent of the moisture is extracted in the top half of the root zone. As a result, adequate soil moisture must be maintained at the 45 centimetre level, she told growers at a July 23 corn school. “We don’t want a flooded root zone, (but) we’ve got to make sure that we’re planning to keep that root zone as even as we can,” said Rasmussen. Corn in southern Alberta is at or near the tassel stage, after which silk begins to develop. The silks are 90 percent water and need moisture to develop and accept pollen. “If those silks get a little wilted, the pollen can’t travel down them, and you’ll get a missing kernel, and every missing kernel is a take away from your yield, whether you’re a silage grower or a grain grower or a grazing customer.” Silks will grow 2.5 to four cm per day in optimum conditions, starting at the base of the ear, said Lloyd Van Eeden Petersman, an independent DuPont Pioneer representative. The sticky silks will continue growing until they are pollinated.

Then it takes about 24 hours for the pollen grain to travel down the silk tube, ovulate and begin forming a kernel of corn. The silk begins to dry and brown off once fertilization has occurred. Each corn tassle produces half a million pollen grains a day, so there are few worries about adequate contact of pollen with the silks, said Van Eeden Petersman. Rasmussen urged producers to avoid major fluctuations in soil moisture, and keep moisture capacity of at least 75 percent. “It’s the most critical time for your yield right now, going into pollination,” she said. “If you’re behind going into this phase, I don’t know too many irrigation systems that can refill that soil profile back up.” She also cautioned growers not to stop irrigating too early, despite the temptation to allow fields to dry for truck traffic during harvest. Yield can suffer even at the later stages of development. In general, the southern Alberta corn crop is thriving. A recent spate of hot weather has provided 22 to 23 heat units per day since July 1. Most grain corn requires 2,100 to 2,300 heat units to reach maturity, and the total is now around 1,300. Corn crops went from waist high to more than two meters during the middle two weeks of July, said Van Eeden Petersman. “Plant stress from basically where we’re at now, going into the tassel, carrying on into the early stages of reproduction, it’s very important that we have our water up where it needs to be and stay away from any funny herbicide timings,” he said. “We have to be careful what we do.” There has been little evidence of

insect pressure. Grasshopper damage is minimal but European corn borer is always a threat. Corn borer moths are the white, dusty looking insects seen in early evening. They lay eggs in small milky patches on the undersides of leaves. Once hatched, the worms burrow through curled leaves, creating shot holes. They also eat into stalks, reducing nutrient flow. B.t. corn varieties kill the worms, preventing second and third generations. “As we get more and more corn in the area, we need to stay on top of that, managing our insect pressures with the genes and traits that are available,” said Van Eeden Petersman. He also said poor irrigation water quality can cause bacterial rot. Symptoms include a discoloured leaf on a plant that, when removed, has a rotting smell. It may not kill the plant but will affect yield.

Cob provides earful of information on life growing up Environmental conditions | Kernels in straight lines mean it’s been a good year, while crooked lines indicate the plant was under stress BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

TABER, Alta. — Whether chopped up for silage, combined for grain or savoured at the dinner table, every corn cob tells the story of a season past. The number of rows, kernel pattern and extension speak to the ease or challenges the host corn plant experienced from planting to harvest. “When you see your rows of corn clearly pronounced in straight lines, it’s been a good year for corn,” said Lloyd Van Eeden Petersman, a representative of both DuPont Pioneer and the Taber Home and Farm Centre. “When you see a twist in them, when you see (the rows) going from

Optimum growing conditions in Alberta this year means corn cobs will boast bountiful kernels in straight lines. 16 down to 14 down to 12, at those constricted points something happened way back in the V3, V4, V5 stage, be it a hailstorm, be it a water shortage, things like that.” V stages are growth stages of the

corn plant, roughly equivalent to the number of leaves. The VT stage is the tassel stage, after which the stages are described with an R as the plant enters its reproductive phase. Growers can count the number of

rings, number of rows and number of kernels per row to estimate their anticipated grain corn yield. However, that number matters less than biomass or size and taste for silage and table corn.

Empty spots on the cob, where kernels should be, are also evidence of stressors. Speaking at a July 23 corn school in research plots near Taber, Van Eeden Petersman recalled the crop of 2010, when many cobs showed gaps and irregularities. That was the year forest fires spread smoke into southern Alberta, reducing direct sunlight on the corn crop. Kernel abortion resulted. The southern Alberta crop is thriving this year, with high heat units and near optimum weather. Some corn for the fresh market is expected to be ready in early August. Van Eeden Petersman said grain corn is on pace to be ready well before the first anticipated frost date of Sept. 20.

CROP REPORT ALL CONDITIONS AS OF JULY 25. VISIT WWW.PRODUCER.COM REGULARLY FOR UPDATED CROP REPORTS

MANITOBA Warmer temperatures and minimal rainfall advanced crops and allowed those affected by excessive moisture to further recover. There are reports of brown girdling root rot and blackleg lesions in canola, brown spot disease and bacterial leaf blight in soybeans, and fusarium head blight in winter wheat. SOUTHWEST The region received minimal precipitation with some areas receiving less than five millimetres. Crop conditions continue to improve. Canola fields that struggled with excess moisture could use precipitation to help soften compacted soil. Some fields are also suffering from brown girdling root rot and are pinching off at the soil level. Early soybeans are flowering and showing good recovery from the iron chlorosis deficiency symptoms. Wheat fields are being monitored for wheat midge. Fungicide applications have wrapped up in many early seeded cereal fields. NORTHWEST Crops are rated from very poor to excellent depending on location. Rainfall amounts last week were negligible. Excessive moisture earlier in the season resulted in loss of crop in low spots, significant crop yellowing and crop stunting. Approximately 65 percent of the cereal crop is at the heading and flowering stage, 70 percent of the canola crop is flowering and the remainder is in the rosette stage. Fifty percent of the soybeans are in the vegetative stage of growth and the remaining 50 percent are flowering. Most field peas are blooming with some pod development beginning. There are reports of cabbage maggot activity in canola fields in the Swan Valley. Bertha armyworm monitoring traps continue to show low moth

numbers throughout the region. Haying conditions improved significantly. Dugouts are full.

SASKATCHEWAN SOUTH

CENTRAL Cooler temperatures switched quickly to hot and humid conditions allowing for rapid advancement. Crops in general benefitted from a break in the rain. A few areas with lighter soil need precipitation, and irrigation is being applied to potatoes on light textured soils. Broadleaf crops are showing excess moisture stress, although cereal crops are also affected. In general, early seeded crops are faring better than late seeded crops. EASTERN Rainfall was two to 13 mm. Crops responded favourably to heat and minimal rainfall. Waterlogged spots are starting to dry up. Earlier seeded crops are doing better than the later seeded crops. Soybeans, corn and sunflower crops are showing rapid growth as temperatures increased. Winter wheat continues to deteriorate as dead areas in fields become apparent. Some fields show high levels of fusarium head blight. There are reports of spraying for diamondback moth larvae in canola. However, the overall levels of insects are lower than expected in the northern part of the region. INTERLAKE High winds and hail resulted in some crop damage in the southern Interlake area. Warm temperatures improved crops, hay and pastures. Most spring cereal crops have headed, while canola has flowered and podding is occurring. Flax and soybeans are flowering. Corn is improving with the heat. Winter wheat is starting to turn colour. Insect pressure has fallen significantly. Leafcutter bees are pollinating alfalfa seed fields with the warm temperatures.

Warm weather is helping advance crops in the southeast, but many areas need rain to help crops mature and fill. Rainfall varied across the region, ranging from trace amounts to 37 mm in the Moose Jaw area. The Moosomin area has received 600 mm of rain since April 1, the highest amount in the province. Flooding, wind, hail and drought have caused crop damage in the southeast. Producers are spraying for insects such as wheat midge and grasshoppers, and for diseases such as fusarium head blight, sclerotinia and leaf spots. In the southwest, heat has helped crops advance. Rainfall ranged from trace amounts to 37 mm in the Cabri area. Since April 1, the Cadillac area has received 385 mm of rain. Topsoil moisture conditions are deteriorating in the southwest, particularly the Maple Creek area, as well as areas near the Alberta and U.S. borders. Hayland and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 60 percent adequate, 28 percent short and 12 percent very short. CENTRAL Crops continue to recover from flooding in the east-central region. Other fields in the area require rain to help remaining crops mature and fill. Rainfall ranged from trace amounts to 30 mm in the Saskatoon area. The Foam Lake area has received the most rainfall since April 1 at 506 mm. Storms moved through westcentral areas, bringing high winds, baseball-sized hail and heavy rain causing extensive damage. Some areas received large amounts of rain within a couple of hours with the Biggar area receiving 82 mm. The Rosetown area has received 313 mm of rain since April 1, the most in the region. Topsoil moisture conditions on cropland are rated as 15 percent surplus, 79 percent adequate and six percent short.

About 40 percent of the hay crop is baled or put into silage, with an additional 30 percent cut and ready for baling. Hay quality is rated at about 10 percent excellent, 85 percent good and about 10 percent fair.

some producers irrigating for their second cut. CENTRAL

NORTH Some areas of the northeast received heavy rain, which flooded fields and damaged crops. The Nipawin area reports receiving 84 mm of rain in one day. The Arbor field area has received 345 mm of rain since April 1. Topsoil moisture conditions are rated as 40 percent surplus and 60 percent adequate on cropland. Hayland and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 67 percent surplus and 33 percent adequate. Crops are advancing quickly in the region, although wind and localized flooding have caused damage. Producers are spraying for grasshoppers, wheat midge and diseases such as sclerotinia and leaf spot in later-seeded crops. Rain helped crops advance in the northwest, but it is slowing haying. The Neilburg area is reporting 38 mm of rain, while the Hafford area reports 377 mm of rain since April 1, the greatest amount in the region. Cropland topsoil moisture conditions are rated as three percent surplus, 93 percent adequate and four percent short, while hayland and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated as one percent surplus, 95 percent adequate and four percent short.

Hot, dry weather has taken its toll on canola yields. Most canola is finished flowering and starting to pod. It will be a struggle for some fields to achieve average yields. Cereal crops are looking good and have not suffered from the heat like canola. Pea crops are almost finished flowering and well into podding. Scattered showers have hampered some haying, but generally hay was put up in good condition. NORTHEAST Heat and a lack of moisture have taken its toll on canola crops. Scattered showers may have helped with yield in some areas. Hail along the Saskatchewan border wiped out crops near Chauvin. All crops could use rain. Haying is well underway. Good early season moisture has produced heavy yielding hay. NORTHWEST Showers helped crops that were being stressed by heat and lack of moisture. Rain was not widespread. Canola finished blooming in most areas and is beginning to pod. Some early seeded barley crops are beginning to turn colour. Haying is well underway with good yields. PEACE

Corn and sugar beets are faring well and potatoes are in full blossom. Irrigation pivots are going steady because of the hot weather. Haying is well underway with

Rain finally arrived in parts of the region, but it is likely too late to save most crops. Some estimate that yields will be 80 percent less than last year. All crops are suffering, and hay and pasture yields are also reduced. Some pockets of the Peace, including areas north of Peace River, received enough rain that some crops may yield well.

YAKS | PRODUCTION

Yak producer looks for buyer for 250 head herd Owner wants to sell animals to concentrate on bioenergy business BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

Yaks originated in northern China and Tibet and have been domesticated for more than 4,000 years. | MARIE HALE/FLICKR PHOTO

Canada’s largest yak herd is for sale. Phil Marsh says he will sell his 250head herd for $1,000 a cow-calf pair, or give a discount for the entire herd. “I’m open to offers,� said Marsh, who farms near McBride, B.C. Marsh bought his first yaks in 2006 and has slowly expanded the herd. Meat from his herd is sold to a Vancouver wholesale company, which resells the top cuts to high end Vancouver restaurants. “It’s a good business,� said Marsh. He said he is selling the yaks because his other business, converting biomass into biochar in Prince George, B.C., is taking top priority. “The yak herd is getting sacrificed for bioenergy,� he said.

Yaks originated in northern China and Tibet and have been domesticated for 4,500 years. Tibetans used their meat, hair, hides, bones and milk and also used them as pack animals. Cows average 600 to 800 pounds and stand 4.5 feet at the hump. Bulls weigh 1,200 to 1,500 lb. and reach 6.5 feet at the hump. Yaks have handlebar horns, shoulder humps, horse-like tails and long shaggy hair that hang to the ground. Marsh said he was attracted to yaks because of their minimal maintenance. They don’t require game fences, are easy calvers and don’t require special feed. “They don’t need a game fence, nor are you going to be chased out of the pasture by them,� he said. “I’d like to find a buyer for the cow

herd, as opposed to butchering them.� A yak carcass will bring $1,500 rail price, or $100 at the auction market. “You get a steep discount at the auction.� Marsh estimates there are fewer than 1,000 head in Canada, mostly in herds of four to five animals. The International Yak Association estimates there are 7,500 yaks in North America. Canada exported yaks to the United States in the 1980s and 1990s to help expand that country’s industry. Yaks were included in the border closure when BSE closed the border to cattle in 2003, but the border has never reopened to yaks. “I could sell the entire herd into the U.S.,� Marsh said. “It’s a bit frustrating.�

BEES | POPULATION

Bee population increases contrary to media reports BY ROBERT ARNASON BRANDON BUREAU

Is it possible to have a pollinator crisis when bee colony numbers are increasing? According to reports in various media outlets, the answer is yes. For example, on July 23 the Globe and Mail published an online article with the headline: Why is Canada’s bee population in rapid decline?

The story was based on a Canadian Association of Professional Apiculturists (CAPA) report issued the same day, looking at the percentage of bee colonies that died or were unproductive following this winter. CAPA said Ontario beekeepers lost 58 percent of their colonies, much higher than the 25 percent losses across Canada. The Globe piece said neonicotinoids, a class of insecticides applied

to corn, soybean and canola seeds, were likely responsible for the severe bees losses in 2014 and in previous years. The headline and the sombre tone of the article were curious because Canada’s bees are doing much better than they were in the late 2000s. CAPA data shows that Canada’s honeybee population has steadily increased since 2009. Canadian beekeepers had 611,972

colonies in the fall of 2009 and 677,824 bee colonies in the fall of 2013, an increase of 10.7 percent. In Ontario, hive numbers were 81,200 in the autumn of 2009 and 100,000 last fall. “I hate to say it, but I don’t know if the media has done a good job of trying to contact the people who know what the numbers really are,� said Rod Scarlett, executive director of the Canadian Honey Council. “The Ontario Beekeepers’ Association (OBA) has done a remarkably good job of (sharing) their problems and their numbers. I think the media is focused on that Ontario mentality and thinking what happens there happens in the rest of Canada.� The OBA has blamed neonicotinoids for killing millions of bees in the province and has led a highly effective campaign against the seed treatments. However, Scarlett said there isn’t a bee population crisis and most honey producers are doing a better job of minimizing winter losses. “There are regional variances but we seem to be managing bees and honey production quite well.� Canadian bees were worse off in the late 2000s when varroa mites plagued honey producers, he added. CAPA’s data on winter losses indicates that Scarlett is correct. Thirty to 35 percent of Canadian bee colonies failed to survive the winter from 2006 to 2009, while losses were only15 to 28 percent between 2010 and 2014. Medhat Nasr, CAPA president and the provincial apiculturist in Alberta, said many Canadian beekeepers have adopted best management practices

to cope with the pests and diseases that compromise hive health. “The bee hive numbers, it is growing slowly,â€? he said. “It is a positive story, and it shows a lot of work has been done to help the industry.â€? Yet numerous publications and broadcasters have produced news stories with grim outlooks, implying all bees in Canada could be dead by next week. Stephen Strauss, Canadian Science Writers’ Association president, said journalists often look at one report or one data set when they write a story, and they don’t consider historical or broader sources of data. He is concerned by the absence of statistical analysis within journalism. “I get really (angry) that journalism schools don’t require people to (take) a statistics course,â€? he said. “Statistics are kind of fundamental to being a human being in the time we live in.â€? Another issue is the media’s urgency to tweet the story three seconds before the competition when a study or report is released. Strauss said sometimes there is also a reluctance to tell the other side of the story. In this instance, journalists have focused on seed treatments and the need to ban neonicotinoids to save bees while ignoring the consequences of a neonicotinoid ban. “What it means is there are more insects and they eat more (crops),â€? he said. “Is that the trade off? Is that what you’re willing to deal with? If I was a farmer, I’d be pissed off at this because I don’t see that argument ever put forward. The notion is that is ‌ the farmer’s problem.â€?

WINE MAKING | MARKETING

Wild berry winery caters to unique tastes Hindered by rules | The government forced them to plant fruit even though they weren’t needed in producing their wines BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

DEWDNEY, B.C. — Small-scale wine makers navigate through a minefield of regulations and obstacles when bringing their products to market in British Columbia. For brothers Fritz and Bob Sprieszl of Kermode Wild Berry Winery, that includes budgeting for higher recycling fees and planting acres of domesticated fruit, even though their business is wild berry wines. Red salmonberry, blue elderberry and Sitka mountain ash wines are among their specialties, as well as Himalayan blackberry Merlot, saskatoon berry liqueur and Himalayan blackberry port. “It’s been a roller-coaster ride for me dealing with the liquor board. The biggest problem in this province is red tape and bureaucracy,” Fritz said. “At end of the day, I just want to make wine and sell it.” B.C.’s Liquor Control and Licensing Branch recently suspended his licence to sell wine in the province because of disputes over container deposits and recycling fees. The suspension doesn’t extend to out of province and international sales. “I could shut down my local sales tomorrow, but I don’t think that would be fair to my local customers,” he said. “We are probably in the top three for fruit wineries in B.C.” Bob said drop-in traffic is high at their wine tasting room and orchard near Dewdney. “We can hardly keep up with hardly any marketing now,” he said. “We have a loyal following.” B.C. recycling regulations classify businesses that sell packaged goods or supply printed paper to B.C. residents as stewards, which makes them legally and financially responsible for the costs of recycling those materials. Multi-Material British Columbia, a non-profit organization financed by these businesses, is responsible for residential recycling programs for packaging, plant pots, aluminum foil packaging, certain types of plastic film packaging and drink cups. Fritz said recycling fees have escalated substantially since he started his business, sometimes several times in the same year. The Sprieszls have also had to contend with other provincial regulations. Fritz said regulators initially approved the self-financed venture’s business plan, but later decided the

It’s not cheap planting blueberries.” The brothers planted four acres of blueberries and grapes but do not use them in their wild berry formulations. “The wild is wild,” said Fritz. Bob said it’s the niche market they have carved out for themselves, citing the popularity of their unique flavours of wines and their success in international wine competitions. “How much more unique can you get than B.C. wild wines? No one else is doing wild berry wines.” Allan Main, executive director of Community Futures North Fraser, is one of the customers who have discovered the local winery. “When I first tried it, I thought it might be a bit of a novelty product, but I do find it is something I buy for

myself and not just as a gift,” he said. Fritz said wild wines offer a richer taste. “We’re not using cultivated berries, so the berries have more flavours, sugars and tannins,” he said. He used to harvest wild mushrooms and moss, so is no stranger to the remote areas of B.C. where his raw ingredients are found. He enlisted the help of Bob, who was a farm manager in Japan, to begin making wine with him. The business, which offers 20 varieties of wild fruit wines, grew out of a need to find uses for surplus berries they picked for nutraceutical companies and jam makers. Marketing initially involved sampling and taking their products into liquor stores across B.C. and today includes a website and word of mouth advertising. Fritz said it’s tough to get their products into smaller privately operated

liquor outlets in Vancouver because of limited shelf space for specialty products. Fritz and Bob, who grew up helping at their family’s winery in Hungary, said markets are strongest in rural

and smaller centres such as in the Kootenays and the islands and among people familiar with picking wild berries or home brewing. “It reminds them of the past. It’s a connection,” Fritz said.

ON THE FARM | PUREBRED CATTLE

Rancher hopes to leave legacy for next generation Manitoba Angus breeders hope their children will be able to enjoy the farm lifestyle BY KAREN MORRISON SASKATOON NEWSROOM

SWAN RIVER, Man. — Austen Anderson’s face shows little emotion as he, his saddle horse and herding dog quietly wrangle a pair of runaway cows back into the paddock with the rest of the Angus herd. He, with his parents, Ione and Bruce, run a 180 head cow-calf operation on 10 quarters of land in northwestern Manitoba. His sister Breanna, 20, helps out when she’s home from agriculture studies at the University of Saskatchewan. Austen, 23, who plans to marry next summer, points to a rise of land where he hopes to build a home one day. For now, he lives in the rustic log bungalow his parents built on the farm. The land, half of which is rented, grows feed grains and silage and is used for pastures and fall grazing of standing corn for the Anderson Cattle Co. The siblings represent the fifth generation of Anderson farmers. Their ancestors, who homesteaded in this region in 1898, can be traced back to the home of Angus cattle in Aber-

deen, Scotland. Bruce’s grandfather bought the first Angus cow in 1933. “He was very forward thinking and was involved with the ag society,� said Ione. Bruce’s father, Doug, was also active in the Canadian Angus Association and on the founding board of the Canadian Gelbvieh Association. He imported the first Gelbvieh to Canada in 1972. Today, the family focuses much of its efforts on marketing two-year-old Angus bulls at its annual sale, which was forced to move to the farm this March after the auction mart in Swan River closed because of declining local cattle numbers. It’s just one of many challenges the family has faced. An autoimmune disease, diagnosed 21 years ago, forces Bruce to make frequent trips to Winnipeg to see specialists. The related fatigue reduces his work schedule. The BSE outbreak, when cattle prices fell to $200 from $800 a head, was another setback. “There were times when we didn’t think we’d make it,� said Ione. “Sometimes when we get frustrated at where we’re at, we look outside

The Andersons take advantages of their fertile locale in a former lake basin that boasts no crop failures, even during the Dirty Thirties. “Grandma talks of coming here to an oasis in the desert,� said Bruce. They have good drainage, good rainfall and gravity-fed watering systems that take advantage of sloping land. A shorter growing season is offset by good heat units and longer growing days than southern regions.

“Our cow herd is very functional and low maintenance,� said Ione, who added the cattle are enrolled in the Canadian Angus Performance Program. Bruce plans to show his animals at the National Angus Show in Virden, Man., Manitoba Ag Days in Brandon and Canadian Western Agribition in Regina. The main goal is to cultivate a livelihood here and leave a legacy for his children, he said. Bruce and Ione are former Manitoba Outstanding Young Farmers finalists. Iona, who grew up on a farm at Minitonas, Man., and Bruce are longtime leaders in 4-H, where they first met. They also organize an agriculture exhibit at the local fair. “Hopefully future generations will be able to sustain this way of life,� said Bruce.

Austen is a high school teacher in Swan River, Ione works in accounting and Bruce was a lumber grader for seven years. Forestry and a strandboard plant are among major industries in Swan River, a major service hub for the region. Ione said her children put in long days doing chores before and after school to help out. “There were no weekends at the lake. The kids knew from an early age how to do things,� said Ione. “(On the farm), they learn more of life and death before they reach kindergarten.� The Andersons raise Angus because of the breed’s maternal traits and carcass quality. “An Angus cow will keep you going,� Bruce said about the premium price received at market. He artificially inseminates heifers bound for bred heifer markets, while Austen manages cattle treatments and Ione does the books. “She tells us what we can and can’t afford,� said Bruce.

similar interests. She and her brother, Austen, have participated in 4-H, Angus Youth Ambassadors, the Canadian Angus Association’s Guiding Outstanding Angus Leaders conference and the Canadian Junior Angus Association. Breanna said those involvements improved her communication skills while exposing her to the science side of the business, farm succession planning, networking with others in the industry, educational scholarships and opportunities to attend international conferences from New Zealand to Argentina to the United States. “I was shy in large groups. I’ve had to work on introducing myself to people,� she said.

LOOKING BACK | LIFE AND DEATH

German immigrants work hard to raise family in Alberta Life revolved around finding ways to make or save money BY ELSIE RIDEOUT FREELANCE WRITER

The plan was for two men to come first and build a home in Canada, with the families following them two years later. But on the ship coming over, Grandfather dreamt that if he didn’t send for family immediately he would never see them again. On their arrival in Halifax in May, the men cabled their families to leave Germany immediately. My grandparents, August and Augusta Klix, and their four children, Augusta, Walter, Helmut and Margaret immigrated in 1914, less than a month before the First World War broke out. They were joined by my grandfather’s sister, brother-in-law and daughter. Grandfather was a ship builder and both grandparents were city folk. But Canada wanted farmers, so they became farmers near Barrhead, Alta. The first couple of years in Canada were a matter of survival. A neighbour taught Grandmother how to bake bread since there was no bakery down the street. She also

learned how to make laundry soap by cooking animal fat and lye made from wood ash. She scrubbed clothes on a washboard and hung them outside to dry. Ironing was a big job, with flat irons heated on the kitchen stove. That required many trips from stove to ironing board because they cooled quickly. In time, the family added livestock as an additional source of income and Grandmother added more daily chores to her homemaking duties. In the winter, she knitted socks, mittens and sweaters for her family as well as neighbours. Twice a year, the family ordered clothes and other necessities from the Eaton’s catalogue. Grandmother also served as the local midwife, delivering many babies in the area. One cold March night, a man came to ask her to deliver his wife’s baby. She had just washed her long, thick hair and wanted him to wait until it dried but he insisted that the situation was urgent. By the time they reached their destination, her hair was frozen stiff. Three weeks later, she developed

The Pembina River had flooded and washed out a bridge on the only access road so she was unable to get to town. Grandmother died on Good Friday April 10, 1925. Grandfather, who died from cancer in 1945, never got over the loss of his beloved wife. At the time of her mother’s death, Margaret was married and living in Bruderheim, Alta., but returned to the family farm with her husband and son to give comfort and stability to her sister, 17, and twin brothers, 14.

The Klix’s log home, built in 1914, started with two rooms. An addition and porch were added later.

LOOKING BACK | HOMESTEADS

The good old days were difficult for early pioneers BY ELSIE RIDEOUT FREELANCE WRITER

Canada advertised extensively throughout Europe for farmers to open up the West in the early 20th century. They painted glowing pictures of lush farmland with cows grazing contentedly in tall grass. The Europeans landed in Halifax or Boston and came to Edmonton by train where for $10, some filed on homesteads sight unseen in the Barrhead district. In Edmonton, they would hire a horse drawn wagon to carry their belongings to their new home, usually a three day trip over rough dirt roads. They frequently encountered deep mud holes that required them to unload the wagon, drive it across and carry their household goods, piece by piece, and reload the wagon. Their first house was built of logs, with cracks chinked with moss and mud and repaired every spring. It was often one big room with a dirt floor and a window on either side. A wood-burning stove provided heat and a kerosene lamp gave them light. For water, they dug a one metre square well by hand. The lucky ones hit water at four to six metres while others had to dig deeper. Garden plots were cleared and also dug by hand. In the beginning, the settlers lived on bread, pancakes, bannock, rolled oats and beans. In the summer, they preserved wild berries. Abundant

wild game in the area added protein to their menus. Winter provided natural refrigeration for goods but an ice house was built for summer storage. When lakes or rivers were frozen over, they cut blocks of ice and filled the icehouse with layers of ice and sawdust. The Homestead Act required the settlers to break 30 acres of land in the first three years or acquire a certain number of cattle. The wilderness, bush, swamps and bogs weren’t ideal for livestock so they cleared the land by hand with axe and grub-hoe for growing crops. The big trees were earmarked for the sawmill, while the smaller ones and deadfall became firewood. At first, the land was broken with one horse and wood-beam plow. The farmer’s wife handled the team while the man guided the handles to turn up the ground in even furrows. Wheat, the first grain crop, was broadcast by hand, cut with a scythe, gathered into piles and harvested with a flail. The first threshing machine was horse-operated with the grain and straw falling on the ground to be picked up by hand. Improved equipment became available in time but most homesteaders couldn’t afford a full complement of machinery so they pooled their resources and machines. A milk cow and chickens were early staples and added much needed milk, cream, butter and eggs to the diet.

Farmers quickly realized that grain farming alone didn’t provide an adequate income, so they acquired more

cows and chickens and sold the excess cream and eggs. They later invested in pigs, a commodity that was ready for

market every six months . In this painstaking way, they made a new life in Canada.

SPRAYING WHAT’S LEFT

MARRIAGE BREAKDOWN | GUILT

Don’t let guilt push you back into bad marriage SPEAKING OF LIFE

JACKLIN ANDREWS, BA, MSW

Talk to a professional or friends to help improve your sense of self-worth

Q:

Perry Sytnyk was spraying canola near Hamiota, Man., July 9. He had 200 acres of crop under water and five roads on his property were washed out. He said there is more water this year than the previous flood year of 2011. | KAREN MORRISON PHOTO

I was in a difficult marriage for years. When my husband drank too much, which he did frequently, he would be emotionally and verbally abusive to me and rude to our children. Fortunately my parents have been able to help me and the kids move out and set up our own house. I have a good job, a nice home and a chance now to spend some quality time with my children.

My husband does not say much whenever we happen to meet, but I know that he is angry with me. I can understand that. What I do not understand is the guilt that I feel every time I see him. I did nothing wrong. I did not cheat on him. I never lied to him and I tried for many years to make our marriage work. So why do I feel guilty so much of the time?

A:

It is fairly common for the person who has chosen to leave the relationship to feel guilty, just as it is common for the person who has been left to feel angry. I am not sure why that is, but why a person feels guilty does not matter. What matters is how the person deals with it. Probably the worst thing you could do is let your guilt drive you into some kind of reconciliation with your husband. Abuse tends to escalate. What is emotional abuse today becomes verbal abuse tomorrow and could well turn into physical and sexual abuse the day after that. You have already struggled with emotional and verbal abuse. You do not want to tempt fate with the chance that physical abuse is waiting for you. Different people deal with guilt in different ways. Some people talk to close family members or trusted neighbours, some people sign up for professional counselling, some meditate, some pray and some go jogging once a day. Whichever way you choose to deal with your guilt, remember that the goal is to overwhelm the guilt with a positive self-concept. Guilt has a masterful way of decimating any sense of self-worth that you have managed to rescue from your difficult marriage. Try not to let that happen. You cannot let your guilt destroy you, and neither can you let your children’s guilt play havoc with their self-concepts. Despite being innocent victims, your children may find themselves in the same emotional trap in which you have found yourself. Your children need to learn to deal with their guilt effectively and efficiently. But guilt does not need to last forever. The more you and the children deal with it now and build on your self-worth, the greater your opportunities for healthy and supportive intimate relationships in the future.

JAM | CALORIE-REDUCED

Enjoy summer fruit year round with low-cal jam, jelly TEAM RESOURCES

BETTY ANN DEOBALD, BSHEc

T

raditional jam and jelly are made with pectin that requires acid and sugar to create a gel. The sugar also acts as a preservative to prevent mould growth. To create jam with a low-sugar content, natural citrus pectin is modified so the pectin bonds with calcium to form a gel. To assure that there is sufficient calcium available to create a gel, it is added to the fruit mixture. The modified pectins are called low-methoxyl pectins (LMP). This type of pectin does not readily dissolve in liquid so the dry pectin is mixed with a small amount of sugar or other sweetener before it is added to the crushed fruit or juice. The mixture is then boiled and stirred to ensure the pectin is dissolved. Additional sweetener can be added after the pectin is dissolved if desired. Dicalcium phosphate salt, a calcium salt needed to make the gel, is usually sold with LMP for this purpose. The salt is mixed with water at the rate of 1/4 teaspoon (1 mL) dicalcium phosphate per 1/4 cup (60 mL) water. The amount of calcium solution needed will vary with the degree of hard water. The salt does not dissolve readily in water, so the calcium solution must be mixed thoroughly and measured while the liquid is cloudy. Jam and jelly can be sweetened with small amounts of sweetener such as sugar, honey, agave, maple syrup, frozen juice concentrate and concentrated fruit or artificial sweeteners. Agave can be used just like honey but it doesn’t impart any taste. It is possible to make preserves without sweetener but it is not recommended because the final product is likely to be tart and bland. These spreads are low in sugar so to prevent spoilage, they need to be processed in a boiling water bath and sealed for shelf storage or stored in the freezer for up to one year. Cooked and processed low or no sugar jam, once opened, will last about three weeks in the refrigerator. If the recipe directions are followed, the jam should gel when it is completely cool 12 to 24 hours after removing it from the water bath. If the gel is too stiff, too much calcium was added and the water was probably too hard. Reheat and add more juice. If the gel is too thin, not enough calcium was added, so try reheating and adding more calcium solution. Unlike other pectins, it is possible to develop your own recipes or convert a recipe written for a different pectin to a LMP recipe. The LMP can be stored indefinitely if stored in a tightly sealed container. Acid, such as lemon juice, is not needed to promote gel formation but can be added to the jam or jelly to enhance the flavour and colour.

Use nectarines and whole blueberries to make a colourful low sugar jam. When serving, crush the blueberries to give a streak of blue and a burst of flavour. Using a low methoxyl pectin means that sugar is not required to create the gel. As a result, considerably less sugar is needed to make jams and jellies. | FILE PHOTO

In a separate bowl, combine honey and pectin powder. Mix thoroughly and set aside. Bring fruit to a full boil over high heat. Slowly add pectin–honey mixture, stirring constantly. Continue to stir vigorously for about two minutes to dissolve pectin while the jam comes back up to a boil. Once the jam returns to a full boil, remove it from the heat.

Baute was elected earlier this week at the association’s annual meeting in Banff, Alta. In his acceptance speech, he stressed the importance of working with all members of the seed industry and called on the association and the agricultural industry to support modern agriculture as a steward of health, safety and the environment. NATURE CONSERVANCY RECEIVES HIGH GRADE

The Nature Conservancy of Canada received a four star rating, the highest grade available, from Charity Intelligence Canada. The rating was based on financial transparency, accountability to donors and cost-efficiency. NCC has been working since the 1960s to conserve habitats in Canada. It has protected approximately 2.5 million acres of land. NCC enters into conservation agreements with landowners who wish to donate or sell their property. It targets areas where habitat conservation is needed. As a registered charity, NCC raises money to conserve each of its sites. In Saskatchewan, the NCC is active hosting community volunteer events, including trail upgrades, tree plantings, beach and shoreline restorations, invasive species removal and birding surveys.

NCC encourages Canadians to connect with nature by making public access to light recreation such as walking, birding, kayaking and photography. CO-OPS FOCUS ON LOCAL PRODUCE Co-op stores in Saskatchewan will put 1.25 million pounds of locally grown produce on their shelves this year. The retail system is bringing back its Grown at Home initiative, which started last year with Prairie Fresh Food Corp., a group of 16 Saskatchewan producers. Co-op bought 750,000 pounds of fresh vegetables last year under the Home Grown Saskatchewan brand. This year, Co-op will buy 22 products grown on 250 acres, up from 15 products on 80 acres last year. Products include radish, baby beets, green kale, zucchini, strawberries and garlic. Availability will depend on producers’ supplies and weather throughout the year. Some products are already available in the 114 Co-op stores, but others such as baby carrots and dill will be in stores by the end of July. Products will be stocked on a seasonal basis until December. Co-op is aiming to expand the initiative outside Saskatchewan. NGOS CALL ON GOVERNMENT FOR HELP IN SOUTH SUDAN Twenty-eight Canadian non-governmental organizations operating in Ethiopia has called on the federal government to increase its support

for those suffering in South Sudan. Conflict in the country has displaced more than 1.3 million people and forced 341,000 to seek refuge in neighbouring countries. As a result, there is potential for widespread hunger. The 28 NGOs, which belong to the Canadian Network of NGOs in Ethiopia, have given the government three reasons why it should respond to their call: • the large numbers of people displaced by the conflict • the historical role Canada has played in responding to needs in the region • the readiness of Canadian NGOs to scale up their humanitarian responses South Sudanese farmers haven’t been able to plant their crops, which they depend on for survival since the violence broke out in December. NGOs offering aid in South Sudan include the Canadian Foodgrains Bank, World Relief Canada and the Adventist Development and Relief Agency, which is supported by Presbyterian World Service and Development and the United Church of Canada. The Primate’s World Relief and Development Fund and Canadian Catholic Organizations for Development and Peace will be implementing food distribution responses shortly.

University of Guelph researcher Art Schaafsma is certain that scientists are close to a solution that addresses neonicotinoid seed treatment concerns, but they need more time. “I’m confident that we’ll get there,” says Schaafsma, who is part of a 25-member team examining dust mitigation solutions. Bayer CropScience’s Fluency Agent, which is a new seed lubricant, has been shown to considerably reduce dust. Researchers used dust bags to capture samples for testing, and while the numbers haven’t been finalized, Schaafsma said it stands to reason that it’s working. However, he said researchers’ greatest chance of success is with a polymer that lubricates the seed and adheres the seed treatment. Schaafsma said he has tried the polymer and is “quite impressed with how clean things were.” There are concerns that neonicotinoid type pesticides are killing bees in vast numbers. Researchers are also addressing the planter dust issue by using a deflector kit to measure the dust coming off the planters. “I do feel confident that we can lick the dust coming off the planter problem,” he said.

“Industry, grain farmers, the government, they’re not just sitting on their hands. We’re working on it.” Schaafsma and his team are also investigating the efficacy of seed treatments by comparing yield data from fungicide-only treated seed and insecticide-treated seed at 100 locations in southern Ontario. However, he said trials take time and can be confounded by planting dates. The Globe and Mail recently reported that Ontario intends to become the first province to restrict the use of neonics by requiring producers to apply for permits to plant treated seed. The Ontario agriculture ministry has not said what the restriction will look like, but Schaafsma doubts it can be ready for spring. The Conference Board of Canada recently explored the economic consequences that such a restriction could have on Ontario soybean and corn growers. Vi jay G i l l , d i re c t o r o f p o l i c y research with the board and coauthor of the report, The Value of Seed Treatments for Ontario Growers, said such a restriction could cost farmers more than $630 million a year in lost revenue. A loss of that magnitude could reduce Ontario’s gross domestic product by nearly $440 million, he added.

SUM M ER CLEARANCE ON

The Ultimate Vertical

Crop Cutter

• Always a cut above the rest • Increases bushels per acre and improves sample for better grade • Reduce build-up on ends of divider board resulting in precious time lost • Reduce piles in swath (beaver huts) resulting in less greens in sample and reduces possible heating in storage bins, which in turn reduces problems during harvest • High speed cutting action enhances blade life

Grain Bag Zipper

Seal in the quality of your grain!

1 st Pla ce Winn er MB InvAegn Days Show tor 201c1ase

The GRAIN BAG ZIPPER SYSTEM™ will keep your grain bags WATER FREE! • 100% water proof - Never lose grain to water again! • Quick and easy for one person to use in all weather and all terrain for lower labour costs • Easy to re-open and re-use for easy grain access and inspection • With proper care and storage, the Poly-Fastener® zipper strips are reusable for up to 7 years • Smaller, lighter, easier to handle and store than 2x4s • No electricity required for easier and more convenient field use. • Poly-Fastener® is designed to hold various grain bag thicknesses

Guarantee The Best Prices When You Sell Your Grain! It’s Easy as 1-2-3 . . . 1. 2.

3.

ONE PERSON Instead of heavy 2x4s, you use two light but durable plastic zipper strips that snap together like the seal on a sandwich bag - trapping the grain in tight. ONE PASS Just feed the zipper strips into the Grain Bag Zipper™ tool and push it across the grain bag. The tool then snaps the strips together, perfectly sealing the grain inside while also trimming the bag for nice clean edge. IN ABOUT A MINUTE No power required, no awkward handling of 2x4s.

The Grain Bag Zipper System™ includes: 1. Pegs (5) 2. Anchors (2) 3. Zipper Tool (1)

5. Edge Slicers (2) 6. Push Pole (1) 7. Instruction manual

4. Hand Roller (1)

8. Carrying Case

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. Egg Farmers of Newfoundland and Labrador (EFNL) is a non-profit entity and was formed in 1970 to govern provincial egg production according to federal-provincial agreements. EFNL are presently requesting proposals from firms or individuals to provide a “current state” assessment of the supply and demand of feed inputs as it relates primarily to NL egg farmers; and secondly, to generate options for analysis, with supported recommendations for feasible and alternative feed input approaches that can be considered by the NL egg industry which have high potential for commercial success. The overarching goal of this study is to enhance the competitive position of egg farmers in Newfoundland and Labrador. This is a competitive process, and enquiries and proposals will be kept confidential. Proposals received after 12 noon, August 29 Newfoundland Time, will not be considered and will be returned unopened. If you or your firm has capabilities and interest to receive a detailed Request for Proposal package, please visit the website link below or contact: Mary Oliver, email information@nleggs.ca Egg Farmers of Newfoundland and Labrador, Box 175, Mount Pearl, NL, A1N 2C2. Phone: 709-722-2953. View RFP at: www.nleggs.ca in the submenu under “Contact Us”. EFNL will negotiate contract terms upon selection. All contracts are subject to review by EFNL legal counsel, and a project will be awarded upon signing of an agreement or contract, which outlines terms, scope, budget and other necessary items. 9 TRUSS ASSEMBLY WORKERS wanted to work in Annaheim, SK.

SASKATCHEWAN VEGETABLES | MARKET OPPORTUNITIES

Sask. co-ops eager to expand local produce More products, more acres | The Grown at Home initiative will almost double its sales to FCL BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

OUTLOOK, Sask. — The news that Saskatchewan co-ops intend to buy more than one million pounds of locally produced vegetables this year is a sign growers are on the right track, says vegetable specialist Connie Achtymichuk. However, there is still a lot of room for growth, she said during a Canada Saskatchewan Irrigation Diversification Centre field day. Sixteen growers who make up Prairie Fresh Food Corp. sold 750,000 pounds of produce to Federated Cooperatives Ltd. last year, which was the first year of the Grown at Home initiative. This year FCL announced it wants 1.25 million lb. The move will take Prairie Fresh production from 15 products on 80 acres last year to 22 products grown on 250 acres this year. Radishes, rhubarb, baby carrots, dill, cucumbers, beets and kohlrabi were all expected in the 114 Saskatchewan Co-op food stores by the end of July. The growers also produce sweet corn, yellow and green beans, baby beets, cauliflower, carrots, garlic, creamer potatoes, wheat, lentils, kale, zucchini, onions, strawberries and saskatoon berries. Achtymichuk said Prairie Fresh members have done a good job of increasing acres, investing in equipment and getting their products to the stores. However, potatoes dominate the vegetable industry. Of the 8,000 acres sown to vegetables last year, half were for table potatoes, 3,000 were for seed potatoes and the remaining 1,000 acres were mixed vegetables. The total value of that production is $43 million, but drops to $2 million when potatoes aren’t included. Achtymichuk said the values in Alberta and Manitoba, not including potatoes, are $30 million and $32 million, respectively. “We’ve got some room to move here,” she said. The Saskatchewan Irrigation Projects Association released a study this month that noted the potential for high-volume vegetable production

Saskatchewan vegetable specialist Connie Achtymichuk speaks to producers in front of test plots of kale and brussels sprouts at the Canada Saskatchewan Irrigation Diversification Centre in Outlook, Sask. | KAREN BRIERE PHOTO under irrigation. The study said the province imports $26 million worth of vegetables a year, not including potatoes. The 1,000 acres of domestic vegetable production meets just 10 percent of in-season demand. “This is low in comparison to Saskatchewan’s neighbours, Alberta and Manitoba, who are at 33 percent and 57 percent, respectively,” the study said. A short-term goal of 20 percent selfsufficiency would require 12,000 acres of irrigable land. SIPA estimates that irrigation out of Lake Diefenbaker could support

500,000 acres for all crop production if fully tapped. Self-sufficiency in vegetable production would require 50,000 acres of irrigable land on top of the current 110,000 acres. “Without some major infrastructure put in place, I just don’t see us getting there very quickly,” said SIPA chair Roger Pederson. “Obviously every few acres that we put in gives people that choice for local produce.” He said some farmers will likely incorporate vegetables into rotations as irrigation expands. Even more importantly, he believes that a larger irrigation area would draw vegetable

expertise to the province. The SIPA study recommended a benchmark study to build confidence and strengthen the industry, establishing commercial cost of production for specific vegetables, a research strategy to increase competitiveness, seed research and production strategies with private and public partners, regional and niche opportunities in food service and value added, and incoming and outgoing trade missions to promote the industry. Pederson said the study hasn’t yet been released in its entirety because of business sensitivities.

Meanwhile, Prairie Fresh will continue to serve up its home-grown vegetables in local stores. The availability is dependent upon weather and supply, but FCL is committed to the program. “The success of our Grown at Home initiative last year proves our members and customers have an appetite for high-quality, fresh and local products,” said Ron Welke, vicepresident of food. “As a result, we’re expanding this initiative, making more Saskatchewan produce available and helping to grow the province’s horticulture sector.”

CORN | SASKATCHEWAN GROWN

Co-ops enticed by locally grown corn BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

OUTLOOK, Sask. — Move over Taber corn. Saskatchewan is preparing to take you on. “You’re going to hear a lot about corn in the next three to five years,” predicts Bryan Kosteroski, value chain manager at the Agriculture Council of Saskatchewan. “You’re going to hear the words ‘Saskatchewan sweet corn’ over and over and over again.”

The crop has been a surprising success for Prairie Fresh Food Corp., the 16-grower group now in its second year of supplying Federated Cooperatives Ltd. grocery stores in Saskatchewan. FCL wasn’t sure at first that it wanted to try selling Saskatchewan corn. It was happy with its out-of-province supplier, said provincial vegetable specialist Connie Achtymichuk. “We convinced him we should be able to fill Saskatchewan supply,” she said. “The corn was excellent.”

Achtymichuk said it’s even better than Taber corn. Kosteroski said Saskatchewan has never challenged the conventional wisdom that corn from other places is better, but now it’s time. Dan Erlandson from Spring Creek Market is the Prairie Fresh corn grower who has taken the crop from zero to 200,000 cobs last year to an expected 400,000 this year. “We’ll probably have him at a million cobs in three years,” Kosteroski said.

SASKATCHEWAN VEGETABLES | PRAIRIE FRESH FOOD CORP.

Growers tackle issues of what, when, how big Consistent size, quality needed | Beet, cauliflower and zucchini growers scramble to keep produce from getting too big BY KAREN BRIERE REGINA BUREAU

OUTLOOK, Sask. — Planting vegetables for retail sale isn’t exactly like planting a backyard garden. Producers have to plant a variety the retailer wants, package it the way the retailer wants and deliver it when the retailer wants. And not everyone can grow every type of vegetable. “When we first started, everyone wanted to grow carrots,” said Saskatchewan vegetable specialist Connie Achtymichuk of the early days of Prairie Fresh Food Corp. Sixteen growers in six zones are now planting 22 types of vegetables and entering their second year as suppliers to Federated Co-operatives Ltd. “All the growers in their particular areas got together and figured out what they were going to grow, and it actually came together quite nicely,” she said during the Canada Saskatchewan Irrigation Diversification Centre (CSIDC) field day July 10. They faced various challenges during their first production year in 2013.

A ZUCCHINI GROWER PRODUCED

24,000 pounds FROM 6,000 PLANTS LAST YEAR USDA PHOTOS

Varieties Three producers grow carrots in the Outlook area. They were generally growing the same variety, so that was not a tough decision to make. However, onion and radish producers were growing different varieties. “When multiple producers are growing under a common brand, the consistency is really important, so we chose the varieties and we developed spec sheets for each product we were growing and then we had workshops with the growers,” Achtymichuk said. She said the goals are flavour and quality, and Prairie Fresh sells only Canada No. 1 or U.S. No. 1 grades. Corn was the most difficult variety to select. “Our buyer wants a bi-colour corn, something that looks like a peaches and cream,” Achtymichuk said. “Most of our growers were growing a yellow corn, and they had a variety that they absolutely loved.” The buyer wasn’t even all that keen on buying Saskatchewan corn in the first place, but it ended up being a winner, she said. “We tried to stagger plantings and plan everything in advance, and it never works the way it’s supposed to,” she said. “We had way too much corn all at once. Some of it went to Calgary, and they were asking for more.”

that we have no market for.’ ” However, growers suggested they start harvesting early and market baby beets. FCL was interested, so the bags were developed and baby beets hit the store within weeks. They sold well, and there wasn’t a large pile of oversized beets in the end. Achtymichuk said Prairie Fresh is trying to negotiate a smaller bag than the 10- and 25-pound bags the stores want because the typical family doesn’t eat that many beets. Size also became an issue for cauliflower growers. Prairie Fresh committed to a 12-count case of about 22 lb, but despite a fast harvest, the grower couldn’t keep up and some heads became too large to sell. The solution: 12-count and nine-count cases this year.

Bigger isn’t necessarily better Beets grow well in Saskatchewan, but people just don’t eat enough of them. Field checks last year showed growers were going to end up with a lot of big beets. Maximizing yield by growing big vegetables isn’t always desirable. “The biggest beet we want in the bag is three inches,” Achtymichuk said. “I’m looking at this and saying, ‘we’re going to have a pile of big beets

Equipment, storage issues “Radishes are a fun crop,” Achtymichuk said.

“They’re a 28-day crop so you plant and harvest, plant and harvest, plant and harvest.” Growers had a little trouble with that concept and committed only to replanting twice. They ended up planting six times and selling 18,000 bags. They were up to 11 plantings by early July of this year and intend to sell 85,000 bags. The success of this crop led the corporation’s main grower to buy equipment to trim the tops, but the trimmer didn’t cut as far down as someone trimming by hand. “They looked fine in storage, but then (when) shipped off to the stores the leaves started re-growing in the bags and they looked like a mess,” she said. There are no equipment dealers in Saskatchewan and no one else operating the same equipment, so the grower asked the Quebec supplier for help. The supplier passed along names of other growers who use the t r i m m e r, b u t t h e y s p e a k o n l y French. “So we’re still working on it,” Achtymichuk said. “That is a real challenge for the industry.” Zucchini, need we say more? “Everything that zucchini does in your garden — multiply that 6,000 times,” Achtymichuk said of the one grower who had 6,000 plants last year. Buyers require lead time on vegetables so that they can clean out supplies and bring in new stock. However, zucchini is unpredictable and can go from flowering to an eightinch zucchini in what seems like an instant. “He actually harvested his zucchini oversized and threw out the first 1,000 pounds,” she said. Harvesting every second day didn’t work because what was left at the end of the first day was too big by the second day. The grower decided to use hockey sticks to move the leaves around, work faster and eliminate some of the

backbreaking work. “He had bought 1,000 cases (to fill) at the start of the season, and he was kind of shaking his head, (thinking that would never happen),” Achtymichuk said. “In the end, he ran out and just stopped picking. There were still thousands of pounds he could have picked.” Each case holds about 25 pounds of zucchini.

Keeping up with demand Garlic is the most requested vegetable from Prairie Fresh, but it’s been slow to get going. “You don’t grow garlic from seed; you grow it from cloves, which are vegetative,” Achtymichuk said. “It’s expensive and it’s hard to come by good healthy seed stock.” Garlic is planted late in the season, generally October, and can suffer winterkill. The Yorkton zone is the home of several growers who are now multiplying garlic. “We’ll be a little shy on supplies for 2014 but should have a good supply in the stores in 2015,” she said. It’s a business Despite the agronomic challenges, Achtymichuk said the biggest challenge for the new company was turning 16 growers into a single business. Bryan Kosteroski, value chain man-

ager at the Agriculture Council of Saskatchewan, said growers were using different methods of calculating costs, didn’t always keep good yield records and needed to understand marketing and branding. “We developed an online strategy where producers can key into their programming and come out with a costing based on their yields,” he said during the field day. FCL pays a premium for local produce, but it isn’t big, Kosteroski said. The growers had to be smart heading into the deal, he added. However, what really tripped them up was the idea of branding and marketing. Kosteroski said a common refrain among growers was that if consumers just tasted the produce, they would “get it.” That slogan — Taste the Difference — became the tag line for the brand. “That’s really driving the sales of our product,” Kosteroski said. “Yes, it’s a better tasting carrot. It’s a better tasting cob of corn.” Corporation members constantly talk by conference call to share the good, the bad and the ugly of the business, and they understand they have to work as a team to make the corporation successful. Kosteroski said the brand is already well-recognized and receiving national exposure. “ Yes, there are other retailers knocking at the door,” he said. “These guys have a growth strategy in place. They’re going to stay focused and they’re going to grow at a pace that they can sustain.” All members are CanadaGAP certified, and Kosteroski said Saskatchewan leads the nation in vegetable food safety certification. The group meets with buyers in November to establish sales volumes and prices for the following year. Kale and brussels sprouts, the top two most fashionable vegetables in the United States, are being planted at the CSIDC, and Kosteroski said growers are staying on top of what they might grow next.

GRAIN HANDLING | CHOICELAND, SASK.

$1 million producer car facility opens doors Fully automated | Producers can load grain around the clock BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Grain growers in northeastern Saskatchewan are now making deliveries to a new farmer-owned producer car loading facility. The first load of grain to the site near Choiceland was delivered earlier this month. The $1 million facility, owned by Torch River Rail, has storage capacity of 56,000 bushels, enough to load 16 hopper cars at a time. It includes four 14,000 bushel steel storage bins, a 30-metre scale and two legs that allow the facility to receive and elevate grain while rail cars are being loaded. The facility is also designed to receive grain around the clock. Producers who use the facility are issued a key that allows them to activate the facility at any time of day. Automated systems take loaded and empty truck weights, keep a record of the grower’s delivery and ensure that the grain is directed to the proper storage bin. Torch River chair Ron Shymanski said construction of the facility could not have come at a better time. Growers in the northeast are sitting on a significant amount of contracted grain from the 2013-14 season. Delivery opportunities last winter were slow because of an extremely cold winter and a lack of available hopper cars.

The car loading facility at Torch River Rail in Choiceland, Sask., includes storage of 56,000 bushels, nearly double the short-line company’s existing capacity. | BRIAN CROSS PHOTO Shymanski estimated in early July that growers in the facility’s drawing area still had 400 to 500 cars of contracted grain to deliver before this year’s harvest starts. The new facility will help accommodate those deliveries with increased throughput capacity. Shymanski said Torch River directors have high hopes for the years ahead. “I don’t think it’s unreasonable to

think that we could do 1,000 rail cars a year,” he said during a recent grand opening celebration. “The grain is here.” Initial projections for grain were set at 150 carloads per year when Torch River Rail was established just a few years ago. At least 50 percent of the rail cars loaded by Torch River in a typical year carry locally produced oats that are destined for U.S. mills.

Morris Nycholat, a Torch River shareholder and farmer from nearby White Fox, Sask., said the facility will allow growers to load producer cars more quickly and with less effort. Farmers will also still have the option of loading producer cars with an auger at railway sidings at Garrick, Sask., and White Fox. Only a handful of delivery points are available to farmers in the Choiceland area.

Bunge in Nipawin, about 30 minutes away, handles canola. Cereals are either loaded onto producer cars or hauled further, often an hour or more away. “It saves hauling,” said Nycholat, who delivered the facility’s first load of grain July 2. “Most of the grain in this area would go to Tisdale, Melfort or Nipawin Siding and that’s 50, 60, 70 miles and more for some guys. This will keep a lot of traffic off the roads and it should save some fuel and manpower.” Torch River Rail is one of 13 shortline railway companies in Saskatchewan. It operates 45 kilometres of track between Nipawin Sask., and Choiceland. Local investors acquired the line in late 2007 after Canadian Pacific Railway announced its intention to discontinue operations. After several failed attempts to negotiate a deal, a group of 46 shareholders comprised of farmers and local governments from Nipawin, Choiceland, White Fox and the Rural Municipality of Torch River raised enough money to buy the line and necessary equipment. The group bought the rail line for $1.2 million and shipped its first grain train in July 2008. Shipments have been increasing steadily since then. TRR’s initial business plan suggested that the company would need to ship 150 to 200 cars per year. Last year, it shipped nearly 600 cars, delivering locally produced crops to a core of major buyers including Quaker, CWB, Bunge and The Andersons Inc., an American grain merchant based in Ohio.

FOOD BANKS | PILOT PROJECT

Alta. program gives tax credit for meat donations BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

Hundreds of people use food banks in this bountiful part of the Prairies, but providing protein as part of balanced food baskets is a constant challenge. “Meat is the thing we buy the most of,” said Lethbridge Interfaith Food Bank executive director Danielle McIntyre. “A substantial chunk of our food budget goes to meat purchases.” That is why the food bank has launched a pilot initiative called Project Protein, designed to encourage southern Alberta cattle and hog producers to donate animals in return for tax receipts based on fair market value of the meat. The food bank will pay costs for processing into ground beef or pork, which it will then distribute to five other regional food banks. The one-year pilot w ill use a $75,000 grant from the provincial community initiatives program to pay Project Protein co-ordinator Thressa Bens and cover processing costs of animals donated in the first year. Arrangements have been

made with four provincially regulated and inspected meat processors in the region to handle donated animals. Bens said the food bank anticipates livestock producers will be most likely to donate undersized or oversized animals that don’t meet specified weight ranges at federal plants. Hogs lighter than 470 pounds will be accepted in the program and there is no weight limit on cattle. Producers will be asked to bring donated animals to one of the four designated provincial abattoirs, but the food bank will cover the inspection and processing fees. Bens said meat is rarely donated to the food bank, likely because of food safety issues, cost and perishability. “The reason for this program is, instead of having to pay for the meat, we’d be able to get it donated like all our other items,” said Bens. “We do try to follow the Canada Food Guide’s recommendations for protein. This will help with that and kind of supplement the beans and the lentils with actual meat products.” The food guide recommends one to

two servings of meat daily for children and two to three for adults. Project Protein will serve clients at the Interfaith Food Bank, the Lethbridge Food Bank and food banks in Taber, Vauxhall, Coaldale and Picture Butte, Bens said. The food banks serve about 1,890 adults and 1,300 children a month. The Interfaith Food Bank initially applied for a three-year grant to start and operate the program but received funding for only one year. A communications plan is now in the works to keep the project running after grant funds run out. A brochure promoting Project Protein lists several benefits for the livestock industry: • excellent public relations • public education on identifying and preparing meat • providing meat to those who need but cannot afford it • helping create a sustainable food bank protein project Financial donations to cover processing costs are also being sought. For more information or to donate, contact Bens at thressa@interfaithfoodbank.ca or phone 403-320-8779.

GRAIN | TRANSPORTATION

Rail capacity remains a concern as harvest looms Fall forecast | Despite record grain movements, officials expect rail service could again test farmers’ patience BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

This year won’t see a repeat of last year’s record harvest, but officials are warning farmers that they could once again be hampered by long waits for rail service. However, the situation today looks much different than it did a few months ago, when dozens of ships were waiting in ports for deliveries stuck in farmers’ bins. Canadian farmers delivered a record amount of grain in June — more than 4.6 million tonnes — as Canada’s two railways continued to meet the demands of a springtime government order. At last count, 16 boats, about double the normal number for this time of year, were waiting in Vancouver, said Mark Hemmes, president of Quorum Corp., which monitors grain transportation for the federal government. Prince Rupert is at a near normal levels, he added. At one time this winter 38 ships were waiting for space in Vancouver and 17 in Prince Rupert. Hemmes said Canadian National Railway now has less than 8,000 unfilled orders while Canadian Pacific Railway has more. However, he expects that grain companies have cancelled many of those orders. The railways were 70,000 cars behind at one time this winter. “It’s almost a rule that says that as you get to the end of the crop year, the sales programs start to get rethought and rejigged and as we get into August, September, October, those numbers are going to go back up,” said Hemmes. In Western Canada, last year’s massive crop, combined with 4.9 million

Lafond among hall of fame inductees BY MICHAEL RAINE SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Researcher and agrologist Guy Lafond will be inducted into the Saskatchewan Agriculture Hall of Fame Aug. 2., along with with David Sefton, Alex Kennedy, Gary Jones, Elvin Haupstein and Dale Montgomery. The annual induction ceremony will take place at the Western Development Museum in Saskatoon Aug. 2 at 7 p.m. Lafond, an Agriculture Canada researcher, who died last year, is being recognized for his impact on soil conservation and improvements to prairie agricultural practices. The direct seeding and reduced tillage pioneer delivered his findings and production strategies to producers for more than 30 years. The benefits of Lafond’s work, based at Indian Head, Sask., spread beyond the region, becoming the practices that are now the norm in dryland agriculture around the world.

tonnes in carry-in stocks, created an 81 million tonne test for shippers. The backlog has eased at many country elevators, but short-line operators and producer car loading sites remain challenged, particularly in Saskatchewan. Norm Hall, president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan, said western Canadian producers could be sitting on 70 million tonnes of grain after this year’s harvest. Production will be down in wet areas of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, but crop reports in Alberta and west-

ern Saskatchewan are more positive. “Ten million tonnes is a lot of grain, but we’re not that far short of where we were last year,” he said. At an APAS meeting in Saskatoon

last week, delegates said they’re looking for a clearer definition of “adequate and suitable” service from an ongoing review of the Canadian Transportation Act. Their calls fall short of demanding mandatory minimum service. “We need to have consistent service. We don’t want service for grain that oil and potash and all of the other commodities don’t receive,” said Hall. “Everybody needs adequate service.” Hemmes told the meeting that wintertime capacity will be an issue because CP and CN are forced to run

shorter trains when temperatures dip below - 25 C. CP loses 25 percent of its capacity on these days, he added, while CN loses 43 percent. An abundance of extremely cold days last winter added to a lengthy list of problems. “I think reasonable is something better than what we have today, but there also has to be an expectation that you can’t expect railways or any kind of operation like that to run exactly the same in January as they do in July,” said Hemmes. “It doesn’t work that way.”

FIELD SCOUTING | UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES

Drones put to work hunting weeds Alberta Agriculture experiment | Researchers explore new ways to use images taken from unmanned aerial vehicles BY BARB GLEN LETHBRIDGE BUREAU

CYPRESS COUNTY, Alta. — Weeds cannot duck and cover when a drone flies overhead. Researcher Chris Neeser is counting on that. The Alberta Agriculture weed pest specialist is experimenting with using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also called drones, or radio controlled aircraft, to identify weed problems in crops. Neeser is working with Jan Zalud of JZ Aerial in Calgary to develop a protocol on how to acquire and process overhead field imagery captured by UAVs and then determine how accurate, useful and economical it is in identifying weed issues. He will compare the results with conventional methods for weed identification and scouting. At a field day in Cypress County near Medicine Hat July 17, Neeser said farmers are interested in aerial technology, and many have either bought a UAV or are thinking about doing so. “Is this just a toy or is it actually something that will help you make money?” said Neeser. He and Zalud started to answer that question by collecting normalized difference vegetative index (NDVI) images of quarter section fields in Alberta’s Starland and Newell counties. JZ Aerial is using a commercially available camera attached to a small, fixed-wing craft. The camera filters have been modified to photograph near infrared, green and blue instead of filtering out the near infrared spectrum. The plane flies a grid pattern, taking a photograph every 2.8 seconds. It makes 11 passes on a quarter section and can be flown manually or using an autopilot program. Near infrared images make plants stand out in the photographs, said Neeser. Areas of lush foliage reflect a greater amount of infrared light. “Of course, the more plants there is,

We’re happy with half a metre or so.” After the UAV collects the photographs, the multiple images are stitched together to form an image of the entire field. Distortions are removed by adding ground reference

points and GPS location to the data. Neeser said his research is in the early stages, but he sees promise. “When it comes to looking for weeds, this is something that may be useful for detecting weed patches in fields at the early stages just after seeding, when you have to make decisions about your weed control,” he said. Its usefulness in weed identification may be limited in later crop stages, he added. However, UAVs could be useful in early identification of other crop problems, such as late blight in potatoes.

representative with Taber Home and Farm Centre, said he sees that potential, although UAVs will never replace personal field scouting. “It will never replace walking through your field. It may give you an idea of which piece of the field you need to watch, which field you need to walk, which parts of the field you need to walk … if they can start measuring water deficiencies or with a thermal camera measuring hot spots in the field,” he said during a July 23 corn field day near Taber, Alta.

Zalud said other UAV field uses include collecting data on moisture levels, hail damage, herbicide treatment response, field traffic patterns, soil compaction, water runoff, irrigation problems and delineation of zones useful for prescription mapping.

CONDIMENT MUSTARD | PLANT BREEDERS’ RIGHTS

Details on mustard lines needed for PBR application Data collection | A variety must have unique characteristics to be registered BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The Canadian mustard industry is getting ready for a big change. Officials are carefully monitoring plots at trial sites in Saskatchewan and recording details about unreleased condiment mustard varieties for their plant breeders’ rights application. “We have to show at least a couple differences between each line to get plant breeders’ rights for that particular line,� Daryl Males of Mustard 21 Canada told producers at a recent mustard industry field day. “We measure a lot of fine detail here, enough that it would drive me insane if I was recording it.� Pending changes will bring Canada’s Plant Breeders’ Rights Act in line with an international agreement, UPOV 91. The changes, which are working their way through the House of Commons, have been applauded by some industry officials as a way to generate revenue for plant breeders. Some farm groups, however, have expressed concern that they will

Mustard 21 manages the research money collected from government and industry partners. The sector has received a boost in funding in recent years through the federal government’s Growing Forward initiatives, and officials are focused on the crop’s performance and competitiveness. They’re promising big yield jumps with the long-term goal being yields that are 85 percent of those seen in canola. “That’s the big concern because Growing Forward 1 and 2 aren’t going to take us (forward) forever as an industry,� said Males. “We do have

to start to fund ourselves more and more in the future. This is one of the tools that we can use.� Poor weather and wet conditions at the Saskatoon site mean officials will have to rely on data collected at a site in Scott, Sask., for the PBR application, said Males. This is the first of two years that PBR information will be recorded. “We’re a bit later than we should be on a couple of these lines,� said Males, who highlighted Adagio as one variety that is approaching registration.

lines in pre-registration co-op trials. She is using double haploid breeding techniques to speed up variety development by a few years and is looking for quality traits similar to existing varieties but with greater yields. She said new brown and oriental varieties could be registered next year if enough data is collected this year. However, poor conditions this year will delay trial work on yellow varieties, she added. “These doubled haploid lines will also be very good as parental lines for hybrid breeding,� she said. However, the first experimental hybrid lines of condiment mustard remain several years away from field tests. Kevin Falk of Agriculture Canada, who works with carinata, said researchers will begin testing experimental hybrid lines of that crop in the

next two years. These hybrid lines, which are more costly to produce, must achieve yield increases of 15 percent, he said. Unlike traditional open pollinated varieties, hybrids are developed through a controlled cross of two parents. “There is less incentive, usually, to save seed from a hybrid or to sell it illegally than there would be from an (open pollinated), inbred type material,â€? Males said. He said in the future canola companies may relax rules on hybrids. “Maybe we’ll apply for our inbred lines that makes the hybrids, so that nobody else gets to use them, but we might not protect the hybrid itself ‌ So there is a decision point coming on how we take PBR at that point, not that we’ll probably ever drop out if the mustard industry continues and gets stronger like we hope it will.â€?

MUSTARD | HERBICIDES

Experts explore options for new weed controls BY DAN YATES SASKATOON NEWSROOM

Mustard growers shouldn’t expect a silver bullet to help them fight weeds, says a weed biologist. However, ongoing work should provide new additions to a limited list of registered herbicides for the crop. “There are fairly limited options because the companies really don’t try to develop a product for a small crop like mustard. Even canola is pretty small potatoes,� said Eric Johnson with Agriculture Canada. “They’re looking at wheat or rice or corn or soybean. If it happens to work on these other crops, then it gets registered, usually through minor use.� Research plots in Saskatoon are testing carinata and oriental, brown and yellow mustard performance following an application of the Group 14 herbicide Authority. The herbicide, whose active ingredient is sulfentrazone, is normally used on sunflowers, peas, chickpeas and flax. Johnson said previous work had identified Authority as weak on wild mustard. Carinata is the most sensitive of the commercial mustards to the herbicide, while yellow varieties are the most tolerant. He expects that a registration for yellow mustard will come, but it remains more than a year away. Until then, applications remain illegal, except in his developmental plots. Options for growers include Edge and Muster.

In yellow mustard, Johnson is looking at a low-rate, pre-seeding springtime application of Authority, similar to the herbicide’s chickpea registration. Injury from fall applications was too high, he added. Applications would target broadleaf weeds, including kochia, wild buckwheat, red root pigweed and lambs quarters. Any possible registration for other species of mustard would come later after researchers collect more data and fine tune application rates. “We were suggesting the lower rate for mustard, knowing that even a lower rate will control kochia. The problem is when you try to go to a lower rate with registration, PMRA (Pesticide Management Regulatory Agency) says, ‘why now? What’s changed? Why didn’t you have that rate registered to begin with?’ � said Johnson. The current label for Authority warns against applications in soil with an organic matter content greater than six percent. Applications would also prevent lentil crops from being seeded for two years. Johnson said researchers are also looking at possibilities with Group 4 herbicides such as dicamba and a combination of fluroxypyr and 2,4-D (Attain), which could be stacked with Group 2 resistant traits. “If you look at corn and canola, about half of the yield increases have been due to breeding and half due to agronomy. I expect we’ll come up with a similar situation in the future,� said Johnson.

CROP DIAGNOSTICS | HAIL LOSS

Assessing hail damage, yield losses Limited options to improve yields | Losses depend on whether the plants were in the milk, boot or dough stage MAJOR STORMS THAT COULD AFFECT INSURANCE CLAIMS

BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

The dog days of summer have arrived on the Prairies. That means one of two things for many Saskatchewan producers: either a visit to the lake or a trip to the field to assess hail damage. Jeff Morrow, vice-president of operations at Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corp., said hail claims have been arriving at corporation headquarters for the past few weeks. Hail has been reported at various locations throughout the province. The latest event was a storm July 17 that hammered a swath of farmland nearly 20 kilometres wide stretching from south of Wilkie toward Rosetown in west-central Saskatchewan. The storm caused widespread damage to crops and farm buildings. Affected producer were still assessing their losses last week, but many crops are a writeoff. “I think the offices are getting calls in those areas for sure … but I don’t have any way to quantify how many or how widespread the damage was,” Morrow said. Hail losses have also been reported at various locations in Alberta and Manitoba this summer. When fields aren’t a complete loss, the next question is what to do with the crops that remain. Assessing hail losses can be difficult, according to crop specialists and agronomists who spoke at a recent Crop Diagnostics School at Scott, Sask. In cereals, hail damage varies depending on the growth stage. A 1975 study conducted in North Dakota concluded that the greatest hail-related yield losses resulted when stems were broken off during the milk stage. The study found that yield losses in spring wheat can be 30 to 70 percent when 100 percent of stems are bent. By comparison, yield losses in the boot stage were 28 to 39 percent, according to the study. Total yield losses during the hard dough stage were three to 47 percent. Peas are among most resilient crops. Plants in mid- to late-flower can produce new pods after a devastating hail, although yields will be significantly reduced and maturity delayed. Fred Waelchli, an agrologist with Saskatchewan crop insurance, said some pea crops that were hammered by hail in early to mid-July have since recovered and are supporting a handful of pods per plant. “There was basically no green on them anymore…. They pretty much all looked white,” Waelchli told agronomists attending the Crop Diagnostics School. Peas, more than many other crops, have the ability to recover because root systems with intact nodules can kick start regrowth. Even pea plants whose main stems have been severely damaged or broken off entirely can produce a crop. However, harvesting will likely be difficult because surviving plants and pods are generally laid flat and difficult to pick up. “There is some regrowth but it’s minimal,” Waelchli said. “It would be awfully delayed, and it would be a very

A series of hailstorms in the second week of July resulted in widespread damage across Alberta and Saskatchewan and some damage in Manitoba. However, overall crop insurance claim numbers continue to track slightly below the five-year average for this time. ALBERTA As crops mature and harvest begins, producers with hail damage should contact their local insurance agency for advice about leaving check strips for claim inspections. Major storm dates and locations for early and mid-July include: • July 6: Lomond, Milo, Arrowwood, High River, Kathryn, Strathmore and Huxley • July 9: Lacombe County, Ponoka and Stettler areas, Vegreville, St Paul, Vermillion and Viking, Bentley, Eckville, Ferintosh, Rocky Mountain House, Blackfalds, Alix, Lacombe • July 10: Claresholm to Milk River, Stirling, Cardston • July 17: Several storms were reported across central Alberta, including a violent storm through Rockyview County into Wheatland County with tennis ball-sized stones and high winds. Claims were reported from Standard, Huxley, Stettler, Crossfield, Carbon, Hussar, Drumheller, Oyen, Three Hills, Provost, Carstairs, Trochu, Red Deer and Camrose. • July 18: Strathmore • July 19: Rocky Mountain House through to Dorothy, Swalwell, Three Hills, Carbon, Rosebud and Drumheller • July 20: Vulcan SASKATCHEWAN Major storm dates and locations for the first part of July include:

The weeds are going to make a comeback as well, and then you’re going to have to do something about that.” Losses to canola also vary, depending on staging. Clint Jurke, an agronomist with the Canola Council of Canada, said farmers hoping to optimize canola yields following hail have limited options at their disposal. “One of the questions that we often get asked at the council … is what can I apply to my recently hailed (canola) crop in order to help it bounce back and improve?” Jurke said. “There’s actually not a lot you can do that’s going to help.” Jurke said some producers have asked about applying Headline after hail in flowering or podding canola in hopes of reducing blackleg infection and preserving or improving the remaining yield potential. “I’ve never seen any data that would

show that you’re going to see an improvement,” Jurke said. “The blackleg infection that’s going to happen at that point is not going to be significant. To affect yield, you need to have those plants infected (by blackleg) at the one to two-leaf stage before you get those yield-robbing cankers forming.” In other words, spraying Headline on flowering or podding canola after a hailstorm will increase production costs with little or no hope of a yield boost. The same goes for micro-nutrient packages. “I have never seen any third party data that shows a good yield bump,” Jurke said. Some evidence suggests that a foliar application of nitrogen, if applied at the proper stage, can improve canola yields after hail. Liquid nitrogen, when dribble banded before flowering, showed a positive yield response on a haildamaged canola field near Medicine

Hat, Alta., last year. However, timing is key. Foliar nitrogen applied after flowering is more likely to delay maturity and have no impact on yield. “If you’re trying to (boost) yields mid-flower into podding with nitrogen, forget it,” Jurke said. “You’re just going to delay your maturity. It needs to be (applied on) that early season stuff.” Morrow said Saskatchewan crop insurance has received 675 pre-harvest claims this year. They are for losses on seeded farmland that will not produce a crop this year and has been taken out of production. Most of the pre-harvest claims are flood-related from east-central and southeastern Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan Agriculture suggested July 10 that two to three million acres were flooded. However, it does not account for unseeded acres that were too wet to plant.

WHEAT | FUSARIUM

Midge, fusarium control all about timing One-pass coverage not ideal | Optimal timing for midge control is earlier than fusarium BY BRIAN CROSS SASKATOON NEWSROOM

SCOTT, Sask. — Farmers who are still spraying fungicides on wheat to control fusarium head blight should be paying close attention to crop staging to ensure the best results. Lyndon Hicks, a regional crop specialist with Saskatchewan Agriculture, says early flowering is the perfect time for fusarium control in wheat. “Flowering will begin in the middle of the heads,” Hicks told a Crop Diagnostics School near Scott last week. “When you start to see anthers in the middle of the heads, that is the perfect timing.” The window is fairly narrow, he added, usually a few days. However, with farms getting larger and individual producers covering more acres than ever, hitting that window can be difficult. “When a farmer has large acres to cover, often they start early and end late,” Hicks said. “That’s just the way it works with the time required to cover large acres.” Some producers are tank mixing chemicals in an effort to get one-pass protection against orange blossom wheat midge and fusarium headblight. One-pass coverage is possible, but the timing will not be ideal for both, Hicks said. “It’s important to understand that the ideal timing for midge control and fusarium control is different,” he said. “When you do a single application, you are sacrificing control of one or the other.” For optimal control, insecticides to control midge should be applied earlier, as soon as the head comes out of the boot and is exposed to the air. Ideal timing for fusarium is a bit later. In a normal year, fungicide applications to control fusarium in wheat are usually completed by mid-July. This year, delayed seeding and later crop staging in some areas has delayed applications. Similarly, the window for fungicide applications to control sclerotinia in canola has now passed, at least in all but the latest crops. H o w e v e r, c a n o l a p r o d u c e r s should be planning ahead by examining their fields before harvest for the presence of canola diseases such as blackleg, sclerotinia and clubroot. “Knowing what diseases you have at the end of the season is the only way to know how successful your disease management strategies have been this year and what you need to do for 2015 in order to be disease free,” said Canola Council of Canada agronomist Clint Jurke. “You only get one small window to do this well. Do not let it slip by.” The three major stem diseases that affect canola — blackleg, clubroot and sclerotinia stem rot — are easy to

Among other symptoms, diseased areas of the field will show premature ripening and excessive lodging. To scout for blackleg, growers should pull up suspicious plants and slice a cross-section through the stem just below ground level. Blackened tissue inside the stem is a distinguishing characteristic of blackleg infection. Blackleg has likely reduced a plant’s yield if more than half the area of the stem’s cross-section is blackened. Canola plants affected by sclerotinia will usually develop bleached or browned stems as the plant matures. The plant is likely infected with sclerotinia if the stem shreds apart when it is twisted. The presence of hard, black sclerotia bodies inside bleached stems are a dead giveaway. They are similar in appearance to mouse droppings. Clubroot, which is still uncommon in Saskatchewan, is conspicuous by the presence of large galls on the plant’s roots or at the base of the stem. Plants will have large galls at the base of the stem if above-ground symptoms are evident. Conditions were ideal for sclerotinia infection this year in many canola growing areas. Environmental conditions such as frequent rainfall, high humidity, heavy morning dews and ample soil moisture are ideal for sclerotia germination, spore production and spore germination and growth. Temperatures between 20 and 25 C are conducive to sclerotinia infection. Jurke said those conditions were common in many parts of Western Canada this summer, which has resulted in a heightened risk of sclerotinia-related yield losses.

CAMP WAINWRIGHT | MULTI-USE RANGELAND

Cattle, army conduct joint manoeuvres Livestock, soldiers co-exist | The Canadian Forces Base in Wainwright, Alta., is ideal for army training, cattle grazing BY MARY MACARTHUR CAMROSE BUREAU

WAINWRIGHT, Alta. — It may be the ultimate multi-use grazing area. The cattle at the Canadian Forces Base in Wainwright share the range with hunters, pipelines, gas well activity, tanks, bombs and soldiers. Cows have the right to wander across the 148,000 acre base, but the military and its activity have priority. “The army is tolerant of grazing,” said Harry Loonen, a rangeland agrologist with Alberta’s sustainable resource development department and one of the grassland managers. “If the cattle get in the way of the army, then they don’t want the cows.” Eighty percent of Camp Wainwright is on provincial land and the other 20 percent is owned by the federal government. More than 5,000 soldiers descended on Camp Wainwright for military training this spring. The wide open spaces, trees, river val-

leys and sandy plains make it one of the best military training facilities in Canada. Every soldier deployed to Afghanistan spent time at the military base. It’s also one of the best ranges for grazing cattle. With no fences, the cows are free to wander anywhere on the base, including the permanent danger areas, which include shooting with live ammunition, bombs and possible undetonated live ammunition. “Very few cattle get shot,” Loonen said during a Society for Range Management tour of the base. The biggest danger to cattle is being hit by a military vehicle at night if they lie down on a road to rest. The cattle usually move to quieter areas when the shooting starts. The cattle do have rank, as one group of British soldiers discovered. One animal was shot for a barbecue, but the soldiers quickly discovered that the rules of private property apply and they were forced to compensate the producer. Sixty to 70 grazing patrons bring in 6,600 cows, calves and bulls a year.

The turn-in date is June 20 and the take-out day is Oct. 31. Patrons can choose when they bring the cattle onto grass, but once on the base the cattle must stay until the end of October. Loonen said the lack of fences on the base makes it difficult to manage grazing. One solution is a later turn- in date to ensure the grass has a good start. Cattle herds are also dropped strategically across the base, and the herds tend to stay where they’re left. Dugouts almost every mile throughout the base ensure the cattle don’t have to travel far for water. A low stocking rate means cattle have little reason to wander in search of better grazing and get in the way of military manoeuvres. Ranchers must plan their pasture checks carefully. They must phone first before arriving and may not be let on the base if there is action on the range. Patrons receive a slight reduction in rental rates because of the extra challenges involved in grazing cattle on a military base.

The federal government created Buffalo National Park in 1907 on what is now CFB Wainwright and established one of the last Plains bison herds in the country. The bison were removed from the park in 1939 and the land turned over to the Department of National Defence for an army training facility. During the Second World War, the area was used as a prisoner of war camp for German soldiers. In 1988, gas well development was allowed at the base in certain areas with strict guidelines. Well sites must be below ground to prevent the well heads from getting in the way of military training. They are buried inside giant culverts three metres underground and covered with a large grate strong enough to withstand a 60 tonne Leopard tank. An energy industry consultant is hired to act as a liaison between the gas companies and the military base. Pipelines are buried twice as deep as traditional pipelines because of the heavy armoured vehicles travel-

ling across the area. Special draws allow hunters to shoot elk, deer, moose and grouse in the fall. Rangeland on the base is a combination of sand dunes and prairie parkland. It is one of the only bases that is good for “mounted and dismounted” training. Kelly Sturgess, CFB Wainwright’s base environmental officer, said ensuring the rangeland stays in good condition is a challenge. Shooting with live ammunition usually starts a fire once a year in the permanent danger area. Because of the danger of other unexploded ammunition in the area, the fire is allowed to spread until it hits the fireguard and is extinguished. Most of the permanent danger zones are burned every two to three years. “It’s been burned for 50 years,” said Sturgess, a civilian employee at the base. The frequent fires mean the permanent danger areas have grass but little tree or shrub cover to create distinct grazing areas.


LIVESTOCK Retired University of Alberta professor Art Bailey said a study from 1975 showed that the frequent burning does not affect soil organic matter. “The study shows that prescribed burning early in the season, organic matter in the top six inches was 11.5 percent compared to 8.1 percent in the unburned areas,” he said. “Burning keeps out the woody material, and the soil organic matter was higher. This is one of the key discoveries we made.” Rangeland burning is a natural consequence of military action, but so is ripping up grass with armoured vehicles and digging kilometres long trenches through the sand dunes. Sturgess’s job as an environmental specialist is to convince soldiers and officers to take care of the grassland and repair the damage. If they don’t, an area that is ideal for military training will become useless. “It’s the premier training area for Canadian forces in Canada,” he said. This spring, soldiers built a threekilometre-long anti-tank trench as part of a training exercise. They built

it with a blade mounted on the front of a tank and then used the same equipment to restore the site. The position of environmental specialist was created in 1996 on all Canadian military bases. Sturgess has used the job to stress the need for good land stewardship during military activity. For example, he asks soldiers not to mix topsoil and clay when reclaiming trenches. Spotted knapweed was found on the base in 2003, and an extensive eradication program was introduced, including washing military vehicles before coming onto the base. “Soldiers from across Canada bring their vehicles and equipment here,” Sturgess said. “No other department moves more equipment. We’re a big vector for moving invasive plants.” However, the primary role of the military base is training soldiers, and Sturgess said it’s a continual struggle to balance military training and long-ter m environmental sustainability.

CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE | LIVESTOCK, LEGUMES

Forages, manure key to conservation ag Building blocks of no-till | Combining crop and animal production reduces weeds and builds organic matter in the soil BY ED WHITE WINNIPEG BUREAU

Livestock and legumes were touted at the World Congress on Conservation Agriculture as the keys to long-term success for no-till and low-till. However, even at an international gathering of the world’s leading proponents of conservation agriculture, advocates of livestock and legumes sometimes needed to remind the audience not to forget about these elements of sustainable rotations. “Nobody is talking about animal production,” a Moroccan representative said during a session on extending conservation agriculture practices to the world’s millions of smallholder farmers. “We are completely ignoring this.” Advocates of big acreage farming systems such as those in Canada, the United States, Australia and Brazil

You have to really screw it up bad not to make cover crops pay if you have livestock. STEVE GROFF COVER CROP SEED PROVIDER

also had to remind researchers and extension agronomists that a diverse rotation containing more than corn, soybeans and cereal crops will be essential for producing the best continuous long-term no-till and conservation practices. Forages and manure help suppress weeds, build soil organic matter more than endless rotations of crops and fertilize the soil. They are part of the critical third element of conservation agriculture: a diverse and robust rotation. Research on long-term no-till rota-

tions has often concluded that forage and manure are key building blocks of robust conservation agriculture systems. Researchers in many parts of the world, including at the University of Manitoba, have found that combining crop and animal production offers the best hope that low tillage, low input agriculture can survive the evolution of weeds and other challenges. Many think that simply rotating a handful of grains, corn and soybeans isn’t likely to produce a sustainable long-term rotation. Legumes are important for their nitrogen-fixing and weed-combating properties, while forages offer the same advantages plus provide fodd e r f o r li v e s t o c k a n d p ro d u c e manure, which is the best fertilizer in many situations. The congress gave those who support including legumes, forages and livestock in no-till and conservation

agriculture plenty of opportunities to broadcast their message to fellow soil conservation advocates. Basic soil conservation practices are only beginning in much of the U.S., and some farmers won’t make the leap directly into no-till farming. As a result, U.S. conservation agriculture proponents are making it a priority to convince them to get into cover cropping. Forages and livestock inclusion was presented as the key to the longterm viability of rotations and the easiest way to demonstrate the economic gains of switching from conventional tillage. “You have to really screw it up bad not to make cover crops pay if you have livestock,” said Steve Groff, a Pennsylvania farmer and cover crop seed provider. “Livestock, cover crops, they’re going to pay. It’s just a no-brainer.” Researchers have praised the role

of legumes, forages and livestock in rotations for many years, but getting their conclusions from study plots to commercial acreages hasn’t happened often. Many farmers can make the move from conventional tillage to covercropping or no-till, but adding forage and livestock into conventional crop production has been too much for most to consider. However, Groff said researchers have begun to show farmers how to do more than just buy new machinery and adopt new practices. They’re able to demonstrate systems that make sense to farmers who know how plants operate. “We have all this cool technology out there … but now we’re marrying that with tried and true biology,” said Groff. “That whole concept of taking the technology and using that with biology is the foundation for our 21st century agriculture.”

VACCINATION PROGRAMS | ALLERGIC REACTIONS, INFECTIONS

Vaccines must be properly handled ANIMAL HEALTH

ROY LEWIS, DVM

V

accination programs have become a common part of biosecurity efforts for livestock operations. Following best practice vaccination protocols controls disease, minimizes antibiotic use, improves production and decreases death or losses from abortion. Veterinarians can help producers develop protocols that minimize or eliminate vaccination problems such as leukotoxic effects from gram-negative vaccines, allergic reactions, vaccine site infections and poor immune response from a myriad factors. There are two types of vaccines: those for viral infections and those for bacterial infections. The bacteria come in two forms: gram positive and gram negative. Gram positive include clostridial diseases and anthrax. They don’t produce leukotoxins. Gram negative bacteria are most of the other bacteria we vaccinate against, such as respiratory pathogens and E. coli. They are used for scours prevention and to control E. coli mastitis in dairy herds. These bacteria can produce leukotoxins, and some are worse than others. We should avoid using too many of them at the same time. The leukotoxic effect causes rapid breathing and foaming at the mouth and can lead to abortions and death. Cattle that do recover may be in chronic poor health and susceptible to other diseases. Do not vaccinate with more than two

of the most powerful leukotoxin-producing bacteria at the same time. We see more leukotoxic effects in dairy herds because they use more gram negative vaccines. As well, dairy cows are under the production stress of milking. Some genetic lines seem more susceptible to the leukotoxic effect. Other factors that increase the odds of having a leukotoxic reaction include parasitism, poor nutrition (a lack of micro minerals) and the potential of having slight acidosis (grain overload). Vaccines designed to combat E. coli, vibrio and salmonella (seen more in the United States) are at the top of the list for leukotoxin-producing severity. Histophilus, foot rot, pinkeye and pasteurella (pneumonia) vaccines are in the middle group, while leptospirosis vaccines are in the least leukotoxinproducing category. The effects are cumulative so producers who need to give lots of gram negative vaccines may be encouraged by their veterinarian to spread them out by a week or more. Vigorously shaking vaccines when they are rehydrated can release more leukotoxins than when they are swirled. These leukotoxins also increase as the vaccine ages and if it becomes too hot or cold. Clearly it is important to properly handle vaccines. Question your veterinarian if you need help sorting out vaccination protocols. They will be aware which vaccines result in t h e l e u k o t ox i c s t a c k i n g e f f e c t described. Vaccines can have adjuvants to enhance the immune response, and they sometimes trigger allergic reactions. This is more common with killed bacterins and killed vaccines rather than with the modified live vaccines. Always have a bottle of epinephrine as well as an antihistamine and a dexamethasone (steroid) on hand to

treat allergic reactions if advised by a veterinarian. Allergic reactions usually happen soon after the injections. The animal shows rapid breathing, swelling or puffy eyes, depending on the degree of allergic reaction. Treatment may need to be repeated a few times. It is a good practice to walk through recently vaccinated cattle to check for reactions. They are rare, but my experience is that when they do come it is in multiple cases. The good news is that most animals with allergic reactions can be saved if caught in time. Vaccine reactions can turn into infections. To avoid infections: • Change needles frequently. • Make sure the syringe has been cleaned before starting. • Don’t vaccinate through manure. • Use the proper sized needle. • Don’t vaccinate in the rain because the water washes dust and debris into the needle hole. Most investigations into abscessation following vaccination discover that the animals were vaccinated in a rainstorm or shower. I realize vaccinations must be finished once they have been started, but watch the weather forecast to determine the best, dry day on which to process. This may prevent these vaccine infections. Poor immune response depends on stress levels, nutrition, exposure to organisms and parasitic burden. A good vaccination program can be overwhelmed by poor management and exposure to lots of organisms. Vaccination does not guarantee a disease-free herd. Use it as an adjunct to good management to increase productivity. Select the right vaccines by consulting with a veterinarian. Roy Lewis works as a technical services veterinarian part time with Merck Animal Health in Alberta.

MOSQUITOES | CONTROL

Expert sneaks up on wigglers with biocontrol Avoids mosquito fogging | Larva eat bacteria in the product, which destroys their digestive systems BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

LANGDON, Alta. — Danielle Grant has learned some tricks in the war against mosquitoes as she attempts to get ahead of the pests before they reach adulthood. Grant is a private pest management consultant who works with municipalities to control mosquitoes by monitoring stagnant water bodies, collecting samples and applying a biocontrol product to kill the larvae. She has learned to be quiet and patient when looking for mosquito larvae because they respond to waves and motion. The larvae do their best to avoid her when she takes samples of stagnant water with a small dipper. “If you cast a shadow on your water, then that instantly alerts them to a predator,” she said. The larvae will respond by tumbling to the bottom of the water and

Danielle Grant shows off the dipper she uses to collect mosquito larvae from standing water. If there are larvae present, she may treat the area with a natural product containing a bacteria that kills them. The product is granular and is spread with a small unit that resembles a grass seeder. | BARBARA DUCKWORTH PHOTO may not be found, she told an agriculture tour group. Rather than fogging problem adult

mosquitoes, Grant has opted for a granular product that contains a naturally occurring bacteria called

bacillus thuringiensis. The larva eat the bacteria, which in turn destroys their digestive system.

It is not harmful to mammals or dragonflies. Grant sprinkles the treatment on the surface of water when she finds larvae. The treatment is available from farm supply stores in 20 kilogram bags or small bricks that last for 150 days. The granules are spread with a unit that looks like a hand held grass seeder and need to go on standing water. “They are not going to be on any water source that ripples from waves. Their bodies are so small they can drown easily,” she said. Mosquito larvae, which are also called wigglers, can live in water for seven to 14 days, depending on water temperature. They come to the surface frequently to breathe and eat algae or other small organisms living in the water. They molt four times and become a pupa at the last stage. Mosquito pupae, also called tumblers, live in water for one to four days, floating on the surface and not eating. They dive in a tumbling motion when disturbed and then return to the surface. The metamorphosis of the mosquito into an adult is completed within the pupal stage.

Waterways threatened by zebra mussels

Neonicotinoids threaten ecosystem, not just pollinators, warns scientist

BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH CALGARY BUREAU

CHESTERMERE, Alta — It takes only two cups of water to spread zebra mussels, an invasive creature that plugs up infrastructure and eats other aquatic animals out of house and home. Programs across Canada and the United States are urging boaters and fishers to clean, drain and dry their equipment before moving from one lake to the next. “Invasive aquatic species are potentially one of the biggest threats to our fresh water resources,” says Sharina Kennedy of Alberta’s environment and sustainable resource development department. Quadra and zebra mussels arrived in bilge water in cargo ships from Europe, and the threat spread when the water was emptied into the Great Lakes in the 1980s. States such as Idaho have developed major inspection stations, tracing where equipment came from and where it is going. They focus on boat traffic, fishing gear, float planes and aquaculture operations. Inspection stations have found boaters were destined for eight lakes in Alberta. Most recently, inspectors intercepted a boat destined for Chestermere Lake east of Calgary. “That boat turned out to be mussel fouled,” she told an agriculture tour. A large town has grown up around

Zebra mussels can plug irrigation networks. | BARBARA DUCKWORTH PHOTO the reservoir, which is part of the Western Irrigation District. The dangers to agriculture are significant because the mussels reproduce so quickly. Mussels that entered the Bow River could quickly move downstream and into irrigation networks, dams and hydroelectric systems. Zebra mussels look like a striped clam. They can survive out of water for 30 days and are capable of laying a million eggs a year. They start out as microscopic larvae and are producing eggs by six weeks of age. There is no feasible control, and the mussels cannot be eaten because they produce a toxin. Besides gluing themselves to infrastructure and other animals, the mussels also consume the plankton and algae used as food by native species. The result is a clear water body that does not support life. However, they seem to avoid blue green algae. “Where there are mussels there are often blue green algae problems,” Kennedy said. They were found in Lake Winnipeg last year, but treatments of liquid potash and other chemicals appeared to kill the larvae. None were found this summer, according to Manitoba Conservation. Those who find attached mussels on boats or other water equipment may report them to 855-366-BOAT.

DRESDEN, Ont. — A Quebec biologist says the Ontario government took a solid first step in announcing its intention to reduce the use of neonicotinoid insecticides. Madeline Chagnon of Université du Québec is a member of the Task Force on Systemic Pesticides, an international group of more than 50 scientists formed five years ago. Her paper about systemic pesticides was published in the Environmental Science and Pollution Research Journal July 14. “Most of us with the task force feel there’s enough science now to take action,” she said. “At a certain point you need to ask yourself, ‘how many papers do we need before we do something?’ ” Chagnon said the widespread use of the chemicals threatens soil, aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and food security as well as pollinators. “Our main conclusion is that the widespread use of these chemicals is not only affecting bees, it’s affecting many other organisms,” she said. “We need to at least reduce the use. With the seed coating, about 90 percent of the active ingredient is useless in targeting the pests. It’s going into the environment.… We need to get back to integrated pest management: the right product at the right place at the right dose.” Chagnon’s paper represents one chapter of the task force’s Worldwide Integrated Assessment on the risks of neonicotinoids and fipronil to biodiversity and ecosystems. The

conclusions from that assessment were published in the same journal in June. Pierre Petelle, vice-president of chemistry with CropLife Canada, questioned whether the task force has addressed the issue from a scientific perspective. “A small group of scientists said they reviewed over 800 existing studies and came to some new and truly alarming conclusions,” he said. “Conveniently, this group seems to have found one solution to a plethora of environmental issues, saying that if we ban these products, the struggles of songbirds, amphibians, bees and other benefit insects would be over.” Information questioned Petelle cited Statistics Canada numbers that show bee populations in Canada are robust and growing. He said many of the studies reviewed by the group were conducted under laboratory conditions using unrealistically high doses of neonicotinoids. Chagnon’s paper focuses on ecosystems, including the threat that neonicotinoids pose for wild pollinators, beneficial soil organisms such as earthworms and fresh water aquatic systems. Chagnon found the impact on pollinators to be a major concern. The paper said 15 to 30 percent of human food depends on pollination services, while the yield and quality of 70 percent of the 124 major crops eaten by humans are enhanced through insect pollination. “Widespread use of seed treat-

ments does not necessarily increase crop yields but appears to be threatening pollinator and soil health as well as promoting insect pest resistance. Extensive and wide-scale use of any single insecticide has the proven potential to become a threat to agrobiodiversity,” the paper said. “While the link between non-target impacts of these systemic insecticides and their effects on ecosystem services are not always clear in the published literature, their widespread use, persistent nature and toxicity to a broad range of beneficial organisms are strong indications that ecosystem services dependent on these organism may be at risk.” The task force concluded that knowledge gaps remain despite the growing body of published evidence concerning the insecticides. Neonicotinoids represent onethird of the insecticide market. Chagnon said neonic application rates are 100 to 200 times less than DDT, but they are 5,000 to 10,000 times more toxic. The federal Pest Management Regulatory Agency determined in September “that current agricultural practices related to the use of neonicotinoid-treated corn and soybean seed are not sustainable.” Added Chagnon: “What I find to have been a failure (by the PMRA) is that neonicotinoids don’t have a full registration. It’s a temporary registration because they didn’t have all the studies that were required.” The task force may release additional reports in the future. These could include research concerning potential human health impacts.

INNISFAIL, Alta. — An ambitious plan to expand the Canadian lamb market is being hatched at Sungold Specialty Meats. The federally inspected lamb processing facility at Innisfail is undergoing a $3 million expansion and has invested $5 million in a 50,000 head feedlot at Picture Butte, Alta. “It is way bigger than what we need. This vision is for 10, 20, 50 years,” said chief executive officer Dwayne Beaton. The feedlot and plant will offer full traceability for quality and inventory control and be able to provide carcass results to producers. He said western Canadian sheep producers need to increase production to fill demand and displace some of the imported product from New Zealand and Australia. “The idea is, we are going to build and develop a sustainable industry with lots of opportunity for everybody,” he said. The company studied practices in Australia and realized that improving the plant ’s infrastr ucture and increasing daily volume would boost profitability for shareholders and producers. The Australian plant it studied runs two eight-hour shifts processing about two million head a year. “In two weeks they basically do our entire kill at Sungold,” Beaton said. Australian kill costs are $2.76 per head compared to $8.28 at Sungold, where 1,600 animals a week are processed. A more streamlined plant with new food safety initiatives and more automation should reduce some of the expenses. “It has the potential to operate at 300 head an hour, so in an eight hour shift we could probably do 2,400 head,” he said. The new killing operation should reduce costs to $2.38 per head. However, the plant needs more

lambs to meet this potential and hopes incentives such as a quality grid and contracts might encourage Alberta farms to expand.

“Volume is what is going to give us the ability to grow our business and pay producers who work with us to do the same,” he said. Sungold processed 50,000 head in 2011 and hopes to handle 75,000 this year. Production should increase to 100,000 head per year by 2015. Miles Kliner of Sungold said the plant has previously handled beef and bison, but it is exclusively lamb now. More automation results in a cleaner product and separates body parts that formerly had no value and were costly to dispose.

French processing equipment was introduced to wash the head and remove the wool. The ears can be removed for pet food, and the heads with the skin left on can be sold to new markets. The plant also has new techniques for removing feet. It has halal certification, and there is a market in the Muslim community for feet. Offal that was previously rendered will be separated and can be used for pet food. “The idea is to turn things that are costs into things that are revenue,” said Kliner.

DAIRY | OWNERSHIP

Canadian co-op Agropur to double size of U.S. operations with new dairy acquisition REUTERS AND WESTERN PRODUCER STAFF

Canadian dairy co-operative Agropur is buying the dairy processing assets of U.S.-based Davisco Foods International Inc. The deal, which follows recent expansion in Western Canada and the Maritimes, would double Agropur’s U.S. processing operations and increase its global milk intake by 50 percent, the company said in a news release.

The acquisition, due to close Aug. 1, includes three Davisco cheese processing factories in Le Sueur, Minnesota, Jerome, Idaho, and Lake Norden, South Dakota, and an ingredients plant in Nicollet, Minnesota. Davisco is based in Le Sueur and employs 900 people. “With over $1 billion US in annual sales, this acquisition is by far the largest transaction in Agropur’s 76-year history,” Agropur president Serge Riendeau said in a news release.

“This transaction, combined with the most recent ones in Canada, will increase our sales to over $5.8 billion Cdn on an annualized basis, and we should reach 5.3 billion litres of milk processed each year in 41 plants across North America. “As a result of this acquisition, the U.S. operations of Agropur should reach the top five cheese and ingredients processors in the United States to even better serve its clients.” Quebec-based Agropur said it

expects to fund the deal using its existing cash resources and new credit facilities. Desjardins Capital Markets acted as financial adviser to the company. E a r l i e r t h i s m o n t h, A g ro p u r announced an agreement with Sobeys to buy several dairy processing plants in Western Canada that the grocery chain had acquired when it bought Canada Safeway. It also signed a supply agreement with Sobeys. It also announced its intention to

buy Northumberland Dairy Cooperative’s dairy and food distribution assets in New Brunswick for an undisclosed purchase price. The agreement includes Northumberland’s plant in Miramichi, N.B., which processes 27 million litres of milk per year, as well as distribution centres and its brands. The acquired operations have annual sales of $67 million. Northumberland will keep its hardware and building supply operations.

GROWTH STRATEGY | OPTIONS

Farm expansion options go beyond expensive land purchases PERSPECTIVES ON MANAGEMENT

TERRY BETKER

L

and values came up recently at a meeting I had with a farm family. It wasn’t a surprise, considering that land values have been a topof-mind subject lately at a lot of meetings. There are usually two parts to the discussion: value and availability. What land values will do is anyone’s guess. Same goes for availability. The discussion is generally about land ownership, but there is definitely a spill-over into rental. What was of particular interest in the meeting with this family was the limiting impact of high land values on growth. In this case, growth meant more acres, but competition for land is fierce where this family farms and not much is anticipated to come onto the market. So, what to do? The family believes that businesses should grow and that they run the risk of stagnating if they don’t. As well, another generation is almost ready to join the business, but the senior generation is not ready to retire. Clearly, growth is needed. The family decided to develop a written growth strategy that included looking at various options. The following are some of the more common business related growth strategies:

generation make the rounds in the community to let people know that they are intending to return to the farm. Some owners will want to help a younger person get started. A strategy to reduce acreage is not so obvious. There are farms whose growth strategy is to become smaller and more efficient. Extensification The strategy here is to diversify into other businesses. The new business could complement the core farm, such as custom spraying, or be a non-farm venture. These businesses can be local or distant and can have single or multi-

ple investors. Caution is needed, especially if the investment is into a non-farm business. Skill sets don’t always transfer to a new business. In other words, you can be a great farmer but it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be a great business owner. There are different opinions on this, but generally, know what you do and do it well. Intensification Similar to downsizing, this strategy results in “less” and not “more.” Sometimes the most important aspect of growth is to let some of the other businesses go so you can focus

on what you do best.

Improved management

Niche

There is yet another growth option: improving or expanding management so that you can do more with and extract better profits from what you already have. This personal growth fully complements any of the business related strategies. Improving the management of what you have is your best competitive advantage.

A niche is a small and unique market that usually has little or no competition. Business niches can often achieve greater profit levels. Challenges include finding the right niche and protecting it from others who, by entering the niche, will tend to drive down prices and erode profit. Value-add This is similar to a niche strategy and can be an outcome of an intensification tactic.

Status quo Remaining at a constant size isn’t a growth strategy but is a strategy nonetheless. Given the constraints to finding additional acres, this strategy is considered by many farms. Scale Increasing the number of acres is obvious. What’s not so obvious is how to do it if you’re in a situation similar to the family in question. For many families in this situation, the strategy means being ready in case land becomes available. That means having financing in place and making it known that you want additional land. It sometimes helps to have the next
