no everyone has withdrawn their bids . unreal , never saw that around here before . many contracted haven't been taken , so all that has to go first . could still get $8 here in late aug . we had sold 20 bpa and they are gone , luckily . not looking good here. already hearing stories of processors coming up with problems with the peas to try and get out of contracts , maybe peas are no good , never saw them , hopefully that is the case . we had contracts at 3 different places and all went good .
a fellow told me today that he put a $4.25 target in for feed barley for nov and they picked it up , sure beats that stupid malt

Local elevator here shipped there last pea cars in Sept and they did not know when they would ship the next one. Very unusual in the fall here.

Canada is becoming last resort supplier, other countries producing and selling for less than we can. It's that simple.

And here I thought I was missing out on the good net income that yellow peas and red lentils bring.

Pea demand usually drops off this time of year and restarts in Jan-Feb when another round of shipping occurs. Hard to say how much of a rebound or when given India's very firm stance on protecting there farmers.
They have talked about import tarrifs, restrictions, and will also be raising the minimum farm income subsidy over there. They were elected with promises to help domestic farmers which is what they are doing right now.
Doesn't help black sea peas are pretty darn cheap right now compared to us. The small amount they will import will be coming from them unless something happens dollar or gov policy wise.

Trudeau could be buying thousands of tonnes of lentils from Canadian farmers and sending them to starving nations in Africa instead of writing cheques to foreign dictators that leave the people starving.....
Oops that's what a free market economy like the states do with their foreign food policy....

I haven't grown yellow peas in years, or red lentils. I can say I probably missed a couple of good years lately. But with the current snails pace of exports compared to the pace of the last couple/three years, it must feel like things are moving backwards for people looking to sell or ship.
Does 101 have a chart showing export volumes?

Don't hear lyle Stewart bragging about exports from Saskatchewan or talk about the repercussions of shitty grain movement because he thinks new grain bins are a sign of great things...
Interesting factoid....much of grandpa's wealth the young punks are spending on land and bins was built with nowhere near the farm infrastructure of today. ....
Not envious just facts....

First Round did happen for some but not for everyone. Hard to say where exactly peas that went to the coast were shipped from likely more east half of the prairies which were done sooner than the west side.
I doubt people thought coast demand would dry up like it has.

Really stupid questions......
Is there still people starving in the world?
Does Trudeau issue cheques to some of these third world countries?
And why?
Highlights that the pea lentil markets are there ....it's just that our government thinks we should be a storage bin until dictators or policy changes....
If your government is writing cheques for food aid the money should be sent to Canadian farmers....
But that goes against the world businessman of the year to get Canadian government money and buy ukranian lentils.....

Just read about that.....peas from Canada ....from my understanding. ...do not have to be fumigated or the other issue is ...the fumigation doesn't work because of temperature. ...
Good thing we are investing for more productive varieties while ignoring market access.
Let them starve.....ignorant I know but what's the solution...
We could feed Africa but Trudeau is so ****ing stupid he would finance the European farmer before Canadian farmers by writing a cheque to a dictator....and then it's still questionable if people would get fed.

Where does all the grain go that is grown and donated from all the feilds we see every year.
|

Nov 8, 2017 | 10:46

It goes to the elevator ...gets sold....then the money is deposited into a bank account and is used to buy grain somewhere closer to the problem. ...
Never does Canadian grain get exported to where the problem exists. ....

Starve? The issue is the market is flooded internally in India. They don't need it. Buyers in India are going bankrupt. There are peas that can no longer ship to India and it will get dumped into other markets.

Starve.....not today but maybe the next time they come calling....
But there are people still starving in Africa. ....
Be sort of shitty for India to look like the do gooder using Canadian pulses. ....while we build more storage waiting for India to come calling....
In other words Canada could have a food program where Canadian producers get paid and the grain heads to Africa to feed millions ....I think the US does it.

And we had a early harvest this year which should mean exports are higher not lower. This tale will be told in the Nov numbers which won't be public for awhile.

Why can't that be public knowledge?
It is my business if I sell pulses....
Maybe saskpulse should promote a transparent marketing letter that keeps producers in the loop. ....
Absolutely no sense in promoting higher production with newer varieties if there is no market....
I think there is a market but in most ....it requires government intervention. ....
Whether it be the fumigation issue or sending pulses as food aid to starving nations....

Sask pulse caused a lot of this. LOL. Especially with regards to lentils.
I had a bid a few days ago that worked back to $6.90 for yellow peas less than 13.5 moisture less than 2% splits with "excellent" natural odour and color.
Delivery not until end of March though.
To give a price indication
And this is bagged in container lots.

It is public, it just has a time lag in it's release. Comes out about a month or so after the last day of the reporting month. As to why it takes that long... it's a government agency, they tend not to be high on efficiency or low on red tape. I have sent the link before but will paste it again, has all the info of how much and where to all your grain goes:

Check off is the same no matter the price right? Wouldn't it be better if it was based on % of net? Would encourage them to advocate markets more on price instead of quantity.
