Hit my third target order for $18.65 today, now at 75% sold with one more target at around $19.50. Thinking we will get one more push past the $850 mark once March s finished.

Made my first sale yesterday. My $19.75 target hit. I turned over 150,000 bushels of canola over the last 2 months as I wasn't risking any of it heating this year. Hopefully I can average over $20 a bushel on last year's crop. Sure glad I seeded 2/3's of my acres to canola last year and we where blessed with another bumper crop. Lol to those who say canola on canola doesn't work, or that I'm risking disease.

No I'm full of shit. That was a dream I had. Like an idiot I sold most off the combine. I am so used to having to sell 3-4 months ahead for cashflow. Gone are the days of only selling a month ahead as the chances of the elevator taking it on time are slim, and it's not the elevator who has to explain to the banker why they won't take the contracted grain on time. I am so ****ing pissed at our system right now. They cost the farmer billions this year. Train them to sell 4 months ahead of time, plus another month before you need cashflow, as the chances of them taking it on time are slim.

I am just pissed at our grain marketing system we've been trained to accept in western Canada. If the line companies would be forced to pay for contracts when they are contracted, whether they take the grain or not, it would solve the issues of selling months ahead of time as you need to guarantee cashflow. Most years is may cost a few dollars a tonne. This year it cost hundreds and probably billions as an industry, all because we are the industries bitch.

OMG, please don’t even whisper any idea like that. You wanna see deflation and depression?
