Doesn't that Ted Menzies head up Croplife? Time to give him shit. Sounds like another revenue grab.

I'll be using Lignohumate seed treatment, or none.

[bucket]

What. ?

Another conservative sell out.

No kidding?

I am thinking this wont apply to farmers. Hope I am right but i might be wrong.

It mentioned end users.

A gem indeed.

[wilagro]

You farmers wanted change...well you're getting it. Safety standards for storage and health all will benefit the end user and the environment will be protected as well. Win, win situation.

Giving away some more of our rights, boys?

Thee Almighty Con giveth a little with one hand and taketh even more with the other.

What Primary Producers have been subjected to, is it true austerity or political patronage to Business elite? I voted for these assholes but didn't think our interests would be placed so far behind Corporate interests. I cant even see their tail lights, we've been left so far behind. This better not affect the Primary Producer. Is it beginning to sound and look like canola seed treatments. It will really compliment UPOV91. Loss of control. It is ****ing amazing that we can make a living in the business environment we are expected to function in. But let's not let the clouds of dispair block the few faint rays of sunshine that do manage to break through. Unreal.

Ted Menzies in as Croplife President replacing Lorne Hepworth, who is now President of Genome Canada.

Growing Forward 2 will provide funding for "research and innovation" because those poor Companies cant extract enough from the market place. All the while legislation is put in place to help them extract even more!!! Where did these extra funds come from? They re-allocated them from the now gutted Growing Backwards program that Primary Producers are supposed to rely on in the event a wreck from various causes. They couldn't stand to see the potential liability, from healthy program margins, facing them that some farms were lucky enough to establish. So for our "good", and the good for the industry as a whole, they gave the potential benefits to the corporates that supply us with the goods and services so we can all benefit. Because farmers don't spend money......
