    Argentina....

    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-argentina-china-grains-cccc-exclusive/exclusive-china-set-to-deepen-argentine-trade-ties-with-bid-for-grains-superhighway-idUSKCN1V60AW

    And in Canada we continue to stifle production, carbon tax farmers , cut rainways and have zero vision to market our crops let alone ship them .
    1st world country here going backwards so fast it’s crazy.

    It’s not only the government lets face it the other guys were duds in agriculture also. Where the heck are our boards and grain groups? Wake the hell up if your too scared or stupid to stand up for us farmers resign. DO SOMETHING! SAY SOMETHING, at this point even something stupid would do.

      Good for Argentina so when they go broke they’ll be China’s bitch like Africa. I know more could be done to improve our situation here and eventually China will source more of their needs elsewhere but the last thing we want is to be beholden to them.

        our grain groups only good for studying the same old things over and over again, ie row spacings, seed depth, blah, blah, blah. complete waste.

            They are building us a road too, from Yellowknife to Nunuvut. Not sure what its for, some say for chinese as well. Skippy likes giving things to china.

            Questions are being raised about plans to build a $1-billion, 700-km highway from Yellowknife to a proposed port on Nunavut’s Arctic coast, paid for by Canadians but which critics say would largely serve Chinese government interests.
