    Wheat basis

    Is historically wide here at the moment,rally of
    the last 2 weeks has only added about $3 per
    tonne but our dollar has gained 3 cents in a week
    which is making it tough going for exporters and
    once it became apparent there was a lot of high
    protien wheat the heat came off.
    All pool operators have eased the esr as well for
    high protien wheats but strangely lesser grades
    are holding up which competes with black sea
    and European wheats into se Asia.
    Which countries are predominately canadian
    wheat "turf" se Asia middle east and Japan and
    remain bread and butter markets for us yors are
    what north Africa?

    My dad had plenty of Canadian prisoner of war
    friends here over the years and they claim the
    best wheat in the world is from peace river and is
    direct competition to Aussie wheat, perfect
    growing conditions they reckon and ps they came
    from llydminister Cochin and strasbourg and 100
    mile house all of which are not of course peace
    river so it must have some inherent qualities

            Burbert may be correct on that the peace is not the most environmentally best place to farm. perhaps mallee that was a one year deal as the peace weather is typically totally different than the rest of Canada, maybe some years they can produce the best wheat. I would think not often. Maybe years ago they did not need to use any fertilizer as we did not use fert years ago also as your ancestors did not. I am guessing this is how it came about.

              About Berburts who care about oz and all his stuff he regergitates up from who knows where, his language and thinkings is really starting to get old in my opinion.

                so hopper or who ever what did the cwb used to say were your target markets,seems at times it doesnt matter were you guys sell wheat your always at frieght disadvantage by land and blue water but maybe not enlighten me.
                I guess i always understood rightly or wrongly your durum wheat is best in the world as well, along with some northern usa states,it seems though you may not have always been paid fair value

                  On our farm in the peace we have grown 1cwrs
                  and prem cwrw four of the last five years. When it
                  was not the top grade we never graded feed.
                  This past year with carryover soil nutrition from
                  three years of relatively dry growing conditions
                  many areas had not only top grades bu wheat
                  yields that averaged 80 to 100 bu acre.

                  I know that our oats (plumpness and color) and
                  canola oil content have some regional benefits but
                  not sure on wheat and never heard that
                  suggestion before.

                  FYI
