    Good to get your cheque but it’s lot smaller than it should be and we have to haul further more games played so it has actually cost us more.
    Our local terminal doesn’t really handle wheat only canola flax barley now.
    So that move gave way too much more power to grain companies and railways

        Yes on my farm and many more. Usually those that like it without saying but this isn’t so good are those on the payroll.

                Thank you for being honest!
                And I m glad for you it’s better but I m saying for many of us not with that nearness to multiple terminals it’s been a hardship. There are constant threads on here stating the grading problems the fact they are blending and we re not getting the benefit etc etc is all costing us money. And you don’t dare say anything to the terminal as they will say fk off and not buy anything else from you and they know they have you by the balls.

                  But if your farm still receives subsidies and support from taxpayers then should be careful about how you define who is a socialist or a capitalist.

                      We don’t grow big yeilds but usually good quality and we were not getting paid for the quality in the old system . I see what u r saying but we felt we were subsidizing the poor quality to much .

                        If you are closer to a port along with three terminals life would be good...but ask yourself this...

                        Could a stranger with a 25 percent downpayment make a living on your farm....and how long would an off the street with no farm background have to work for the 25 percent down payment...

                        Renewal ability for the primary producer will dictate if it can survive....

                        I am not arguing but these are questions I ask myself when people say its better....and they are more important for primary producers as a whole or the inevitable consolidation will come again...

                        It will look much different....the further from a terminal will be turned back to grass and ranches....


                        There is a bold statement of the future....better or worse.....not sure...

                          Guess you aren't old enough to remember restricted quota deliveries. Or getting 70% of US prices converted to canuck bucks. Or watching pulses and oilseeds selling year round while wheat sits in the bin. Guess maybe you didn't hear about the criminal CWB blending programs. Or the CWB ignoring markets that wanted lower quality non feed grains.

                          You don't know whats best for your farm because you have no idea how much was already lost. Literally hundreds of billions lost through that entity.

                            Best thing ever was the end of the CWB

                            We are 17 km to zero 2 km from terminal. Rest are 50 and 60 km and then 80 so yea we have lots of choice crush two at 110 km away.

                            Wheat at 74 makes you money.

                            Till we get a ducking seed tax.

                              In my opinion he would never make it on this farm with 25 percent down land is to over valued .
