Which grower orgs. should we contact?

Its funny, ask the average farmer about hockey or sports in general and they can give you a play by play.

Ask them about the real price of wheat and what it is in the states and for the most part you get a blank stare.

Its their god damn business and they don't give a shit.

Bucket, wow its uncanny you say that. I literally stopped going to the local coffee shop because of exactly what you just described. I could spend an hour and a half listening to every inch of every shot that the womens curling team made, plus the color of their ponytail ties, berrets, and gum they were chewing. Same as golfing, welding, kids hockey statistics for 2 leagues and 2 age groups. Mention that new crop canola price is over $12.00/bushel November 2011 delivery and then its blink blink....blink blink...I have not yet sold old crop canola, it has been too cold. Then discuss wheat prices and they dont care, they would rather go back to local minor hockey statistics. blink blink....blink blink....Its just the way it is. I really stay away from that stuff, its really frustrating, and I find it kind of sad.

Great idea of posting US grain prices on the radio. Where I live , Maple Creek Sk. , we can get Great Falls MT. radio clear as a bell. They have a morning farm report that I listen to every day , and their prices for wheat are always posted. ( am560 KMON ) . Pisses me off every time I listen to them , but thats life. Until the morons running this country and the voters who vote for the same political parties their daddies and grandaddies did, I may be an old man before much changes. I am 41 now! By the way I have done the math on our producer car facilities close to me, and their is no $1275 savings. Its even money , and that is the price of grain in Viterras pit before a trucking premium. So I haul 18 miles instead of seven. Take Care everybody and I hope spring brings better conditions than last year.
