Also just got the winter info from Drew. Alberta looks like it could be very dry in 2016 plus a portion of Saskatchewan. Lentils and Durum like it dry so might work out ok.
Peas and Canola not so much.

Any NDVI maps available for the peasants to look at or are those only available to International Grain Merchants? I'm wearing my conical hat with pride this morning.

Any news that would cause an uptick in grain markets would be welcome.

SF3 . . . big news out of Argentina is the rumour of their peso currency being devalued later this week. This is pressuring oilseeds today.

This move will make Argentina more export competitive.

To the extent we can trust any forecast, commodity futures contracts are the most believable.
Looking at Farms.com, canola has about best price gains in next year.
Think futures market prices are what we should pay most attention to.

And the canadian dollar shedding 20 cents to the usd doesn't make canola competitive?

Well then let's go to a 60 cent dollar to get exports.

The argentinian peso still has room to go lower? The worthless Canuckistanian peso hardly can do that any more. Bought $US at 0.78 with the though of lifting at 0.71. Now think it is headed lower yet maybe 0.60 as pointed out by other posters.

bucket . . . that's why you can get $10 canola now, not $9 canola.

With a 0.50 loonie we can get a record $15 for canola so dropping the currency as much as possible as quickly as possible is good policy. Good thing Trudope is captain of the ship so we will get there quickly.
