Not if the Hutterites buy it first or some Indian land will probably be locked up longer than any one can ever remember.

How's calving going 835? I was thinking there's got to be an easier way to make a living, but then it warmed up.

calving going okay..3/4 done ..but i do have some i’m going to sell in the earless calf market this fall !!!

[Klause]

Yeah, my figures were real averages for the country though. Saskatchewan farmland averages didn't jump from $32k to $420k per quarter.

Taking the $32,000 quarter in 2004 and compounding the average SK land price increases through to 2016 (Using FCCs figures) only gets you to $125,851. Round about that 4x also.

Huh?

You couldn't buy a slough quarter for $100K anywhere here.


The land we bought in MB in the 90s for $12k a quarter websold for $107 in '12.






Ask anybody on here and they will tell you prices have done a lot more than fourfold.


FCC "averages" include intergenerational sales. Sometimes well often those aren't at cash market value.

But this is you grassy. And you love to argue black is white so whatever.

Klaus, you must have been hit hard with capital gains reporting and alternative tax. Or did you buy in the same year in Sask and use replacement rules. Alternative tax is a big thing with sale of farmland and partnerships now

Nothing like land prices to get farmers talking...
Here, NW of Saskatoon, very high assessed land sold for a low of $70k in 1991, up to $100k 2002, up to $425k 2013. Class C crop ins soil, no stones, 160 ac. Those are real numbers with cancelled cheques to prove it. But go south to the boulders, there was some low as $40 in 1991, and north to the sand and some for $30k in 1991.
So 6x 1991 rates. I suspect the low assessed $30k may bring $150k but I will not have any cancelled cheque proof-good land is good land, and poor land is shit land, always will be.

Yeah and that's you klause spouting BS and claiming it as fact. The quarters sold in the opening post weren't making $100k but we can always resort to Agriville's coffee row to prove that "some" land is making hugely more and call that average when it clearly isn't. I don't know why you are arguing this anyway as my point was that English land prices are many, many times what those on the prairies are and that will continue to draw new land buyers to Canada. You decided to make it a p###^%# match about which country had seen the biggest increase in land values which is irrelevant to the discussion.

fcc numbers are pretty accurate. here it was hovering around 60-100,000 a quarter depending on quality and timing for a long time up till 2008-9. now it is roughly triple that.

I would say 4-5X here. Roughly speaking.

My hindsight investing is as good as my hindsight marketing!
