New crop oats

[WiltonRanch]

Marketing question. Found another bin of oats with good germ. Would it be foolish to plant these on clean canola stubble instead of hrs or feed barley? No clue on new crop oat prices.

I'm doing some.
Depends on bpa. I'm doing it to learn.
1 patch only though. Lousy ins coverages.

Might be worth more with twine around it?

Richardson around $6.50 for new crop.
Heard yesterday Grain Millers in Yorkton had a special on for April 23 at $7.50.
Good prices for oats going into the new crop year IMO.

In my experience, sooner or later the Law of Feed applies within any given year.
It states that "if it makes cow feed, it will prove to be the lowest margin choice".

SCIC -$681 coverage per acre on oats , canola only $720

Oats is a no brainer for us at $670 for crop insurance, but only have so much storage and will be watching our germ rates also. Right or wrong we pegged a bunch of oats for $7.70 next June. On a normal year 140 is achievable most years. Last year I think oats was the most profitable crop in the cereals and maybe even beat out canola.

Lots of oats going into Mexico and for products like oat milk. Seems to be gaining in popularity. Busy at the Camrose Viterra oat plant. Good crop for me this past year at $9.50/ bu. for light oats. Over $20000 for a super B. Couldn't believe it.

I am making contingencies for just that. Even with Camden’s shelling while standing is causing me to consider swathing again.
