    Oats acreage! Ha Farmers sent Quaker a message F#$Koff!

    The acreage report for oats is saying
    what farmers in our area said. Were
    tired with hand to mouth pricing. Take
    to three and thats as high as it goes
    then drop and hope guys sell. So farmers
    dropped oats acreage. We cut ours in
    half. Oats was one crop over the last
    few years that prove if only one or two
    buyers farmers are screwed.
    Well quaker pretty hard to make oats
    bars out of Dust.
    Will drop oats completely next year.

    Yes, teach those buyers a lesson...no more oats.

    Hah! Hah! Gonna do this for all the other commodities as well? You're bound to run out of crops to drop in a few years.

    Stand your ground...set a price and demand it...sooner or later they will come around begging for product...at least that's the theory of many of the free marketers on this forum.

      Wiilly I still have a wee bit of oats plus the half
      crop I grew. If they want it they will pay otherwise
      it sits. One buyer sucks.

        Wil doesn't believe in things like supply and demand, or the law of gravity. Prices are the result of evil conspiracies and the reason we don't going flying off into space is the massive sucking force on our wallets created by government deficits.

          Give me a break saskfarmer. Hand to mouth
          trading is done the same with peas, lentils,
          canary, mustard, etc. and look at those acres. I
          has nothing to do with it.
