    Once again I worded it wrong..sorry...it is important .....but so is getting to a million tonnes a week.....and preventing elevators from being closed....anywhere in Saskatchewan. ...

    My point being is the focus for APAS has to be farmers as a whole....it should be to help set and possibly enforce policy that helps all farmers....

    As an example if that abandoned line line has potential maybe instead of sinking 150 million into R&D for crops no one wants ....that money should be redirected to that project to help move grain. ...

    Then the issue of elevator closure should have the same policy as trying to shitcan railways....where the elevators are offered to public or private interests before mothballing.....

      It sure would be nice to see railways and elevators stay open at all costs.
      I would like Churchill in operation to give us another outlet or option in the event of a strike in Vancouver or Thunder Bay.
      If the USA uses their Army Engineering Corps to maintain the Mississippi River waterway and railways maybe we could utilize our Armed Forces Engineering Department as well.

      With the environmental loons getting their way shutting down pipelines we should plan for nonstop oil shipments on our railways though.

        It seems odd that now the grain cos can justify closing the very elevator's they put in place as part of the rationalization that took place 25 years ago....

        Concretes that haven't hit there life expectancy just closed. ....by a blip in the market ....then you see the carry over numbers.....


        A 10000 tonne elevator represents 80000 tonnes to the market. ...

          Fake Fake Fake.


          They needed a huge carryout to cover up the non existent "high yields" we all had last year.


          Add up total tonnage shipped vs. total tonnage supposedly harvested and there's a big problem.

          Except for pulses and durum. Those have no markets.

            I only say, again, sorry for banging away, but ioneer, Cargill, Patterson, etc, too much influence, they don’t want Churchill port open.
            Maybe I’m delusional.

                There’s next to f all in the northwest of sk. Yields were fantastic here on the 90% seeded and most cupboards are bare. So this report is fake news. Tired of this bs cause it’s negative spin to talk down markets to buy cheap grain. If the crap conditions worldwide hold out there could be a shortage.
