    In 08 I sold about 3000 bushels of flax, looked, bad smelt bad but the oil was still good, most of it sold at 20.

      20 bucks in 2008 is 24 today...there is still some room for upward movement in flax by that logic....but I have been making sales at current levels....because I dont want to get slaughtered....

      No one making presentations in front of crowds is working for 2008 wages ....why should farmers accept decades old pricing...

      When the price of grain is linked to the hair on a president's head...there is something wrong.

            This whole thing is starting to change some seeding plans.

            Barley looked great a week or two ago, Maybe not now.

            Canola for us is a stable acre that won't change.

            Peas I'm starting to wonder why?

            Wheat is moving but not enough to add acres.

            Durum well guys will seed.

                Will these higher canola prices now attract more acres when best fall price I can find isn’t above 12? I’m maxed on canola unless I do canola snow canola. Something makes me think I should be a contrarian but I’ve been spanked before. Maybe more oats, and if markets are such I can feed more calves if oat prices tank and fall calf prices are poor lol

                  Exchange is in basis....phuckoff. That's a -4 dollar basis.

                  Can't grow them if a guy can't sell them...
                  If you are trying to find a home for soybeans in Sask, it can be tough at times. I find many of the Sask elevators will buy to fill a train or two in the fall and then get right out of buying. Last winter some of ours went west to Alberta through a broker. Many times if I have a small load I will load up and head east. I have split loads with feed barley too. In more eastern Manitoba many buy beans year round. I like growing beans but we sure need moisture or forget it. The south east is turning back to peas after a lot of years growing beans but we are too dry in recent years

                    Exactly what we see here
                    For some reason greens seem more susceptible. Not sure if fact but they are by far the first to flash then not rebound

                      Simple opinion question, I have one quarter I could either grow peas on it or oats, what is everyone’s opinion?
