Land rent, Regina area????

[sumdumguy]

the cookoos nest?

Where is this land from the CTV tower?If it is heavy clay your friend will get 60.00/acre without bins i can gaurantee it.if it is up for bid I know someone in the area.

Thanks for all the advice and comments. I am waiting to hear back from them on a few things. It has no bins, is 1 quarter with 2 adjoining that are also probably available. I would estimat 440 acresish total. On a soils map and soil test results, it is clay on the one quarter, not heavy clay.

As for exact location, I have been told to not say yet. It has not been treated very well, but no big deal, i take land like that over, and it performs well, due to not having been mined through big yields. It just needs some glyphosate, some no-till, and some effort, unlike the former renter...

25 bucks? I can't believe they have been this shafted for this long!

$25 is low if it is what you say, for sure. To me if the top land is going for $60 - I would take off $5 for no good storage. Then look at $40 first year, $45 yr2 then $50 yr3 as the land gets cleaned up and fertility levels improve. Those three items can be very costly and yield robbing. Then if the land is clean and sustainable then one can ask top dollar. Good consistant crops don't happen by accident - it takes time. One thing - you waltz in there and pay $60, pay for extra fert and extra chem then get no rain, to much rain, or hailed out - you will be sorry. Just sayin that good clean productive land can absorb adversity much better. But chances are you will get $50-60 from someone, givin the land grab goin on.

There is some extra adjoining farmland. HMM this sweetens the deal for SF3. More land, more efficient, more appealing.

My mother in law was invited to go "show
support" for the CWB. Her only qualification
is that she lives in Saskatoon and worked to
get a NDP elected to city council.
Her family has been off the farm for 3
generations now.
Another rent a crowd bought for you courtesy
of the pool accounts and the speNDP. You
would think they might have learned after
getting their shit handed to them on the 7th.

Nope, not diskers.

I got an invitation on my answering service today,
and I think I might go check it out. It could be
entertaining. I might take some Chernobyl wheat
with me to create a safety perimeter.

[husker]

when they decide what they are going to do give me a call I am just east of city and do run a good operation that will farm the land properly.

I know someone who rented that Sasktel tower land for 2 years about 10 years ago. The south side with the creek was pretty decent but they could not get the north side of Hwy #1 to produce much.....weren't sure why but they experienced a huge difference both years doing the same thing.

What is the feeling of what land rents and price of land will do in the post CWB era?

Might not be a good time, for land lords, to lock into long term leases.

FurrowT where do you farm near? Around regina
land has been cash renting as high as 75 for "b"
soil some rented as high as 80. But most going
for 65. And nobody cares about bins anymore
because most small parcels only have 14 foot flat
bottoms. The ctv tower is the cutoff for b soil
that's why I'm curious where this land is from the
tower. I look forward to hearing more details.
