    52 bpa by 2025

    They better hurry because it won’t be long and were going to need 52 bpa just to break even.

    Starting to see the glass as half empty. Maybe time to pull the pin.....

      Their target yield per acre might just be more achievable than the total acres. Being a high input, high risk crop, with declining market and price, acres may shrink to the most reliable production areas, driving up yield by default.

        It kind of looks like Cinderella has aged a little and put on a few extra pounds. Not as sharp as she used to look.
        I guess its happening to all of us so we better not laugh.

            Isn't 52 bpa canola a crop failure in your Garden of Eden?

              Haven’t grown canola for three years. Don’t intend to jump back into it soon. Net matters guys, not gross.

                I’m a spring chicken but remember not that long ago a 25-30 bu canola crop was common on the lower quality land here, and this country is a traditional canola area. This have obviously changed over time but planning on 50 bu crops is foolhardy. We’ve been fortunate to have grown some big yields last number of years because of ideal conditions. Didn’t do much differently than when growing a 30 bushel crop.

                  If chinia stays out of our market we only need 31 b/a to meet our demand..
                  Major trick on you coming to all to screw the farmer...

                    I’m intrigued, how can you plan for 30 bpa and pull off big yields last number of years. Are your soils super rich? Eventually you mine the soil if you are not replacing what was removed.
