next year

[farmaholic]

Are you the only two guys out of bed this morning? I need to get coffee before I join the the conversation. Lol

I sleep with my eyes open...

SF3 doesn't need sleep...he runs on adrenaline and an agenda to finish harvest. Then he kinda slows down farming to catch up on a bit of living he missed out on....I don't think I could keep up!

Work hard and play hard.

I will finish the 18 harvest this aft noon. Then it’s time for a few pops, or spiced rums or several with the crew and a big supper. On the combine there is lots of thinking time. Next year always enters my mind, to plan next year now is a bit premature. Plans now always get changed. As soon as a commodity rallys everyone flocks to it.
I know as of right now my wheat acres are going up, not because of big spread between it and durum, it’s simply comes down to net return.
Brandon is a powerful variety and durum can’t keep up with it. I’m looking at the net return, not dollars/bu.
More to follow need more coffee.

How will carbon tax drive up price of fertilizer??
It appears lots of NH3 going on this fall....if Trudeau gets the boot next year the tax will be axed.

[Partners]

Lots of NH3 going down..local supplier says double the acres from last yr already applied.
Phos going up 76 dollars a tonne next shipment coming in..oye..
All our dry N in the ground and picking up our phos that was booked in Aug..
Canola seed prices cheaper than last yr..
Check out the coop as they only have double down prices on dekalb if taking 2 varieties..save more than 50 bucks a bag..

Farmers always talk about quitting until they realize that the only job opportunity for 50 something ex farmers is to compete with new Canuckistanians for long haul trucking. So farming it is. Truck driving is a worthwhile job unlike what many government employees do. Input suppliers know this. Some summer fallow is a viable option in many areas which is one option that will get attention. Around here may try some green fallow along with city sludge for some acres for next year. Selling some land and buying a GIC with some of the proceeds will be option. There are GIC's available for 3.5 and soon as high as 4% out there and some of the principle will be garranteed. Won't get that farming next year. That will also get input attention if anyone actually does it.

Why would I drive truck or work for a farmer. You should be able to have enough to not work again and golf is relaxing. F$&k in the bush, water or sand. Ah hole in one.
