    wakopa,

    They are not only high yield... wheats like CPS Red Penhold are high yield AND superior quality (gluten and protein) a double bonus! Good work to plant breeders and seed companies for doing a great job!

      Its like steroids in sports, if every one is taking them there is no advàntage gained. The only winner is the drug/chemical dealer.

        Tom, how does Penhold yield?

        How would you estimate its revenue per acre compares to a HRS variety such as Cardale?

          We are too far from our market to compete when supply is hefty on the other side of the world. There's only so many perogies being eaten to utilize our wheat.

            That is why we offer cleaner/higher quality WHT as an insentive to buy ours.
            Lose that we may lose market share.

              Edm East on 5.5" from seeding to harvest close to Penhold 70 bu/ac average on 600ac harvested.
              100bu/ac last year on normal growing season 12" rain.

                You might think the conservatives are doing a good job for you but locally my closest point gets missed for spots regularly.

                They have added more costs to my farm to the benefit of yours.

                Glad you are blinded by idealogy and keep your blinders on. Your conservative mps count on that type of support.

                  Tom are you sure your not a liberal? Cause I m certain you must be smoking drugs sometimes.

                  Getting rid of the cwb means quicker payment. It has also meant terrible delivery options less trains for other grains to many out of the way terminals.

                  Wheat is dead unless it's feed purposes. If you want to talk politics. The optics if getting rid of cwb were good just like bombing in the Middle East but the reality without a plan they both ended up creating cluster fs in both events.
                  Very poor governing. And people are realizing this everywhere on every issue.

                    Good points.

                    While I agreed with getting rid of the cwb. Selling it to an end user made no sense.

                    They don't have to use any market exchange for price determination.

                    But it still makes no sense for canada to be fighting a middle east war as an expense while the Saudis build assets in canada. If potash was worth protecting as a strategic resource many ag should be as well.

                      CPS Red Penhold or Conquer could be looking at.
