REGINA —Jim Hallberg heads to 

Canadian Western Agribition every 

year for a week’s vacation as barn boss. 

With his wife at home feeding their 

herd of commercial cattle, Hallberg 

joins 18 other bosses, plus one supervisor, 

to make sure that the more than 

500 exhibitors and their more than 

5,000 animals have a rewarding 

experience while following commonsense 

rules. 

“It’s kind of like an extended family 

to me,” Hallberg said. “I know all the 

breeders and we get along pretty 

well. I respect what they do, they

respect what I do, and I just call it my 

fall vacation.” 

This is Hallberg’s seventh year as 

boss of the Red and Black Angus 

breed, the largest at Agribition. There 

are 105 Angus exhibitors and 545

animals, which represents one-third 

of the total number of purebred beef 

exhibitors and animals. 

This is also Hallberg’s second time 

being boss. He spent a decade as boss 

20 years ago. 

Boards of directors from each of the 

individual breeds choose their bosses, 

while Agribition’s board selects 

the barn boss supervisor. 

Once the number of exhibitors and 

the number of animals for each 

exhibitor is determined, the bosses 

design the space each exhibitor 

needs and directs them to their 

stalls. 

“It’s our job to stall these cattle in 

the most mannerly way and the way

they fit together,” he said. 

Hallberg compares the job of barn 

boss to a hockey referee and coach 

rolled into one. 

“We basically are there to keep our 

group of people, which in my case are 

the Angus people, making sure the 

rules are followed that Agribition sets 

down,” he said. 

“It’s just like a hockey game. There 

are penalties. They know it and I’m 

upfront with them.” 

Animals need to be stalled no later 

than 8 a.m. and can’t leave their barn 

until 6 p.m. each day. Stalls need to be 

kept tidy and clean.

Changes to 

standards 

committee 

unfair: APAS 

BY BRIAN CROSS 


Members of Saskatchewan’s general 

farm organization are crying foul 

over recent changes to the Western 

Standards Committee. 

The WSC is an influential committee 

of the Canadian Grain Commission 

that reviews grain standards and 

grading issues in Western Canada. 

Norm Hall, president of the Agricultural 

Producers Association of 

Saskatchewan, said changes to the 

WSC’s underlying structure will give 

primary producers less say in how 

grain, oilseeds and pulse crops are 

graded and give elevator companies 

and exporters more influence. 

A decision made by the WSC could 

potentially cost prairie farmers tens 

of millions of dollars in a single year, 

he added. 

“What they did was downsize the 

producer’s (influence) and increase 

the industry’s,” said Hall. 

“The CGC was designed to protect 

agricultural producers, partially 

from the industry … but now, it 

seems to be turning the other way.”

“Keep them orderly, make sure 

they get along with their neigbour 

and it’s usually pretty easy. They’re 

usually a pretty easy group to handle,” 

he said. 

He said he’s occasionally had to

“The bad (thing) is somebody 

breaks a rule and he’s a friend of 

yours. You can’t think of him as a 

friend. You have to go lay the law

consider myself an equal and if you treat 

me that way, I’ll treat you the same way.”

are rare, but he’s learned strate- 

GRAIN COMMISSION | FROM PAGE ONE 

Changes to WSC unfair 

The WSC comprises 26 members and 

includes representation from across 

the industry: farmers, grain companies, 

end-users, government representatives 

and commodity groups. 

It also has four sub-committees 

that propose grading changes related 

to wheat, oilseeds, pulses, and barley-oats. 

Membership on the sub-committees 

has been altered significantly. 

For example, farmer representation 

on the WSC’s wheat sub-committee 

has been reduced from six 

members to two, while industry representation 

has increased from four 

members to seven. 

Hall said grading changes that 

favour farmers are far less likely to see 

the light of day under the new structure. 

For example, grading standards 

that reward farmers for producing 

wheat with better milling qualities 

are far less likely to be approved or 

considered if the subcommittees are 

dominated by exporters and elevator 

companies, while grading discounts 

associated with bleaching, shriveling, 

dimpling and discolouration are 

more likely to be adopted. 

“The grain companies sell grain by 

technical standards so why shouldn’t 

they be buying it on technical standards 

as well,” Hall said. 

Farmer Garth Burns, who chaired

gies that have worked well. 

“I treat people how I like to be treated,” 

said Jackson, a former barn boss 

of the Charolais breed for 10 years. 

“And the other rule I have as a 

supervisor is I never argue. If someone 

is being really belligerent to me, I 

just turn and walk away because they 

can’t argue with themselves, and 

then come back later and solve it.” 

Agribition pioneered the barn boss 

program in the early1980s when 

breeder organizations started 

choosing their individual bosses. 

“That’s why the show is number 

one in the world, they say, because of 

the barn boss program and how we 

keep things going,” said Gordie 

Craig, 13-year boss of the Polled and 

Horned Hereford breed. 

“Everybody works together,” he 

said. 

the WSC’s pulse sub-committee, said 

he received a letter from the CGC in 

early August informing him that he 

would no longer be sitting on the 

WSC’s pulse sub-committee. 

“They’ve taken all the input away 

from the agricultural producers …. 

(so) it’s all industry driven now,” said 

Burns. 

“It’s pretty bad … especially when 

the mandate of the grain commission 

is to look after the primary producer.” 

Elwin Hermanson, chief commissioner 

with the CGC, said the changes 

were designed to make the subcommittees 

smaller and more effective. 

“Part of the problem was that these 

committees were gradually getting 

larger … to the point that they weren’t 

as effective…,” Hermanson said. 

“You could argue … that producers 

are not represented the same way 

they used to be on the subcommittees. 

I would make the argument that 

we’re getting closer to what the initial 

purpose and vision was for the committees 

and that to be effective, this is 

a better model than what they were 

gradually evolving into.” 

Grading recommendations made 

at the sub-committee level must still 

be approved by the WSC, which 

selects 12 of its 26 members from 

producer organizations, he added.

WEEDS | RESISTANCE 

BY ED WHITE 

WINNIPEG BUREAU 

Glyphosate-resistant and invasive 

weeds are spreading east, 

south and west of the central Prairies, 

leaving weed control officers 

anxiously awaiting their appearance. 

No one is fooling themselves into 

believing these new menaces won’t 

appear in the cold heart of the continent. 

“There’s a good chance some of 

them may be moving north,” said 

Manitoba Agriculture weed specialist 

Nasir Shaikh in an interview during 

the Canadian Weed Science 

Society’s annual meeting in Winnipeg 

Nov. 15. 

Reports of glyphosate-resistant 

weeds appeared in many sessions 

during the three-day meeting, which 

brought together weed scientists 

from across the country, as well as 

each province’s leading weed control 

officers and Canadian Food Inspection 

Agency officials. 

A host of glyphosate-resistant 

weeds have appeared in Ontario in 

recent years, and the problem is 

worsening. 

In southern Alberta, widespread 

glyphosate-resistant kochia is 

appearing and giving minimum till 

farmers a tough time. 

Saskatchewan and Manitoba don’t 

have major problems yet, but widespread 

use of glyphosate creates the 

ideal situation for independent 

development of glyphosate-resistant 

weeds.

Glyphosate-resistant weeds marching north 

Invasion worries experts | Tropical weeds are acclimatizing to colder, northern prairie conditions 

SLOW AND STEADY HERDING 

As well, already-developed resistant 

weeds could spread into the 

Prairies from the much-beset U.S. 

Midwest and West by air, water or 

truck. 

Herbicide resistant weeds are 

appearing across North Dakota, and 

those areas are often connected to 

Canadian provinces by rivers. 

Last year, Manitoba Agriculture 

staff in Melita found a suspicious 

looking weed, which Shaikh was able 

to identify as giant ragweed, a worrisome 

invasive weed and a likely 

candidate to become glyphosateresistant. 

Giant ragweed is believed to have 

travelled into the Melita area in 

floodwaters in the past two years, 

and it’s not known how many other 

weeds from the northern United 

States have floated in and spread 

along river valleys and onto the edges 

of farm fields. 

The war with weeds is unending. 

Old chemical technologies break 

down once weeds adapt to them and 

many develop multiple resistances 

over time. Weeds become terrible 

problems when glyphosate-resistance 

is added to their armour. 

The dominance of minimum-till 

farming makes these problems hard 

to deal with and encourages even 

more chemical reliance. 

Alberta’s growing glyphosateresistant 

kochia problem is made 

worse by the weed’s already existing 

resistance to Group 2 herbicides. 

It has caused major problems 

in Kansas.

WINNIPEG — Few would expect 

Paul Earl to call for farmers to have 

more control in today’s deregulated 

grain industry. 

Nor would many expect him to 

argue that the grain industry is at risk 

of “imbalance” because of a lack of 

farmer influence. 

Few farmers might expect John 

DePape to call for new government 

regulations to protect small grain 

companies and directly fund grain 

industry data collection. 

But that’s what these right-of-centre 

thinkers argued during the recent 

Fields on Wheels conference, pointing 

out gaps they see in the new open 

market for grain in Western Canada. 

“Farmers need a voice,” said Earl, 

acting director of the University of 

Manitoba’s Transport Institute and 

former chief researcher for the Western 

Canadian Wheat Growers Association. 

“They have to think whether what 

they have lost in terms of farmer control 

is something they need to find a 

new way to implement. Will they find 

themselves disadvantaged by imbalances 

in the marketplace and will 

they have to recreate some sort of 

farmer control they have lost?” 

DePape echoed Earl’s concern 

about imbalances of economic 

power but focused on the likely plight 

of small grain firms and merchants in 

the post-monopoly environment. 

“Some of these smaller companies 

are going to have trouble competing 

with the bigger companies,” said 

DePape, a grain industry risk management 

analyst and author of the 

anti-monopoly blog CWB Monitor. 

“Many small companies relied 

upon the wheat board for finance 

and for expertise,” he said. 

DePape said the federal government 

should consider regulations 

that will help smaller grain companies 

compete with the giant firms 

that now dominate the Canadian 

grain trade. 

“It behooves us to give them a fighting 

chance,” he said. 

“They built their businesses, their 

business models, around the old 

system, and we’ve changed that and 

there are some things I think the government 

could do.” 

DePape wants the government to 

not only protect the Canadian Grain 

Commission’s present data gathering 

system but to expand the system 

by forcing grain companies to report 

export sales when they are made. 

DePape said a competitive marketplace 

survives only if a structure 

exists that allows competitors to 

operate. For him this means regulatory 

support for small grain companies 

and statistics-gathering support 

for the rest of the industry. 

Earl said his call for more farmer 

control was not an argument to 

return to the CWB monopoly or the 

prairie grain pool elevator companies. 

He said he considers those

have also had to grapple with the 

ever-present danger of invasive species. 

Some are agricultural and 

spread on farm and resource trucks 

and trains. 

Others are introduced in urban 

gardens as pretty plants and then 

spread into farming areas. 

Saskatchewan weed specialist Clark 

Brenzil said he has seen a worrisome 

ornamental weed, Himalayan Balsam, 

literally “jump the fence” in a 

Saskatoon neighbour-hood and 

begin spreading in a back alley. 

Ontario Agriculture weed control 

specialist Kristen Callow described 

her alarm at the discovery of a patch 

of kudzu on a slope beside water in 

her province. It’s a big patch and 

hasn’t yet been eradicated as experts 

figure out how to kill it. 

GRAIN MARKETING | OPEN MARKET 

Deregulation advocates see need for greater farmer voice 

failed approaches that hurt farmers 

more than helped them. 

However, he thinks farmers need to 

have access to decision making 

within the grain industry, which 

ended with the demise of the CWB 

monopoly and the pools. 

Earl acknowledged that developing 

a stronger voice within the industry 

will be difficult because farmers who 

pushed for the end of the CWB 

monopoly and other government 

interventions don’t want it now. 

“Farmer control is such a bad 

odour. There are so many bad examples 

of how it should not be done in 

the last 50 years, that they do not even 

want to talk about it,” said Earl of proopen 

market organizations such as 

the wheat growers association.

SARM plans lobby against ag program changes 

AgriStability cap | Lower historical reference margin will eliminate incentive to reduce inputs ON THE TO-DO LIST

The Saskatchewan Association of 

Rural Municipalities has significant 

reservations about the Growing Forward 

2 agreement and will be lobbying 

governments to change it. 

SARM was hoping for a strengthening 

of the AgriInvest program. 

Instead, the provincial and federal 

governments agreed to decrease the 

matching deposit in the savings 

account to one percent of allowable 

net sales from 1.5 percent. 

“We were disappointed to learn 

that government funding for 

AgriInvest is going to be reduced,” 

Laurel Feltin, SARM’s director of 

policy, told delegates attending last 

week’s midterm convention. 

The organization was also disappointed 

to learn that starting in 

2013, the AgriStability program trigger 

will be 70 percent of a producer’s 

historical reference margin, down 

BY BARRY WILSON 

OTTAWA BUREAU 

Canada’s food processing sector 

faces a growing multibillion-dollar 

trade deficit and a serious decline in 

its ability to compete, says a new 

study published by the Canadian 

Agri-Food Policy Institute. 

Author Doug Hedley, a former 

senior Agriculture Canada official, 

described a value-adding industry 

with serious problems of competitiveness, 

investment and a growing 

gap between the value of processed 

food imports and exports. 

“Canada’s net trade in value-added 

processed food has deteriorated 

from 85 percent under the old program. 

However, SARM is particularly concerned 

that payments will be capped 

at the lower of the historical reference 

margin or the average of allowable 

expenses. 

“Basically it’s going to create a scenario 

where the incentive to lower 

input costs will be lost,” said Feltin. 

“By reducing your input costs, you 

would actually reduce any payment 

you would trigger from AgriStability, 

so it kind of seems like a disincentive.” 

She said the purpose of the program 

is to protect producers in times 

of volatility, and it doesn’t make 

sense to base it on margins and 

expenses when fertilizer, fuel and 

commodity prices have all been volatile 

in recent years. 

“We are going to continue to raise 

this issue. We would like to see a 

change for sure,” said Feltin. 

SARM would like to see more 

from a deficit of about $1 billion in 

2004 to $6.3 billion in 2011,” he wrote. 

CAPI president David McInnes said 

in a Nov. 19 interview that the analysis 

is bad news for the entire food 

sector. 

“The trend line of a growing trade 

deficit is disturbing,” he said. “This is 

a very important issue for primary 

producers who sell to these plants 

and to retailers.” 

The numbers mean processed food 

products now on grocery store 

shelves are increasingly imports. 

In recent years, there has been 

increasing evidence of what analysts 

call the “hollowing out” of Canada’s 

food processing industry, particu- 

research money spent on the livestock 

and forage industries and a 

renewal and expansion of the Farm 

and Ranch Water Infrastructure Program. 

Feltin said the federal government 

is about to launch formal consultations 

on a new Species at Risk Act. 

Farmers can now be fined up to 

$250,000 or imprisoned for causing 

inadvertent harm to species at risk 

through normal farming activities, 

although Feltin said the current act 

has no teeth in that regard. 

SARM wants the new act to eliminate 

all producer liability and reward 

farmers who set aside land for species 

at risk. 

“We still have to be profitable in the 

ag sector and (the act) can’t conflict 

with that,” said Feltin. 

She had good news for producers 

about the Census of Agriculture. 

“Any agriculture producer I know 

hates filling out the ag census. It’s a 

long form, it takes a long time and not 

larly in Ontario where plants have 

been closing, jobs are being shed and 

farmers are losing a domestic market 

for their produce. 

Food and Consumer Products of 

Canada (FPCP) said last week the 

report flags a significant industry 

problem. 

It is the largest Canadian manufacturing 

sector, with 300,000 employees, 

but has been recording trade 

deficits for two decades. As well, the 

gap between the value of exports and 

imports has increased sharply in 

recent years. 

The FPCP used the report to renew 

a call for more government support, 

including tax breaks, labour market 

only that but it’s in May, one of the 

most difficult and busy times for agriculture 

producers,” said Feltin. 

SARM recently attended a workshop 

about changing the census. 

“I can tell you that I really think it’s 

going to be shortened this time, so 

that’s good,” she told delegates. 

Feltin believes the federal government 

will eliminate nine questions 

from the census. 

“They don’t have money to make 

the form long. They want to make 

sure they’re not asking anything that 

costs extra money.” 

SARM has been lobbying Ottawa to 

collect financial data from other programs 

such as crop insurance, 

income tax and AgriStability instead 

of requiring farmers to fill out that 

information on the census. 

“They said they are looking at that. 

They are testing a system right now 

where they can actually pull that data 

from these various other programs,” 

said Feltin. 

credits and reduced regulation. 

In his report, Hedley did not pinpoint 

the causes of declining industry 

competitiveness. It is a combination 

of a reduced value of exports and 

an increase in the value of imports. 

He raised some possibilities and 

suggested they be explored: 

• the growing trade gap roughly 

coincides with the increased value 

of the Canadian dollar in recent 

years, which has made Canadian 

production less competitive with 

American production. The United 

States is the main buyer of Canadian 

product and the main source of 

imports 

• Canada’s access to American and 

A number of agriculture-related 

resolutions were passed at the midterm 

convention suggesting that SARM: 

• set up a steering committee in 

conjunction with Manitoba and 

Alberta to form a co-operative to 

buy the Agroforestry Development 

Centre at Indian Head, Sask., and 

operate it at full cost recovery 

• lobby provincial and federal governments 

to support proposals 

provided by retention committees 

before dispersing federal community 

pastures 

• lobby the Saskatchewan Crop 

Insurance Corp. to refuse coverage 

on clubroot susceptible crops, 

including clubroot resistant canola 

varieties, that are seeded where 

a susceptible crop was grown the

XL plant starts slowly 

to ensure food safety 

JBS manages production | Workers trained on protocols 

BY MARY MACARTHUR 

CAMROSE BUREAU 

Meat is leaving the XL Foods plant 

in Brooks, Alta., for the first time 

since an E. coli outbreak forced its 

closure in September. 

“They’re shipping the product out 

and it’s going to retailers. Everything 

seems to be in progress,” said Doug 

O’Halloran of the United Food and 

Commercial Workers union. 

JBS USA took over management of 

the southern Alberta plant from XL 

Foods in October. The Canadian 

Food Inspection Agency pulled XL 

Foods’ license to produce after food 

safety concerns. 

Nineteen people became sick after 

eating E. coli contaminated meat 

from the plant. 

As part of its relicensing agreement, 

the slaughtered beef must be held 

until E. coli tests come back negative. 

When JBS took over management 

of the plant, it said it planned to 

implement its own tough food safety 

system that is already in place at its 

eight U.S. plants. 

“They’re taking great care to ensure 

all the i’s are dotted and t’s are 

crossed,” O’Halloran said. 

The plant slaughtered almost 2,000 

head of cattle per day before it was 

shut down. Workers cited line speed 

as part of the reason why food safety 

standards may have been compromised. 

The production line began at a 

slower pace when the plant reopened 

to ensure all workers understood 

food safety protocols. The line is still 

operating at a reduced pace, he said. 

“They’re doing what is necessary to 

ensure everyone is trained properly 

and the best product possible is 

going out the door.” 

Workers have also been given more 

authority to raise food safety issues, 

O’Halloran said. 

“So far the changes with JBS have 

been very positive,” he said. 

“We’ve got our fingers crossed it will 

continue to have a heightened sense 

of food safety and worker safety and 

get this plant back operating fully.” 


PURATONE | CREDITOR PROTECTION 

Puratone’s call for grain 

angers farmer left in cold 

54,000 bushels delivered | Several farmers considering lawsuit 

BY ROBERT ARNASON 

BRANDON BUREAU 

MORDEN, Man. — Sitting at his 

dining room table, Robert Wiebe 

looks like a man who hasn’t slept 

much since the middle of September. 

It’s been two months since Puratone 

entered creditor protection, but 

Wiebe is still enraged because the 

hog production company owes him 

more than $300,000. 

Wiebe, who farms north of Morden, 

delivered 54,000 bushels of winter 

wheat to Puratone’s feed mill in Winkler 

in late August and September. 

Puratone paid him for only 16,000 

bu. of wheat. 

“I hauled all my winter wheat to 

them,” said Wiebe, who has sold 

grain to Puratone for years. “They 

owe me for 38,000 bu. I delivered 

them about 54,000 bu.” 

If it wasn’t for an excellent corn crop 

on his 2,200 acre farm, Wiebe said it 

would have been difficult to cover the 

$300,000 deficit. 

“I had a super corn crop this year 

and I am going to survive. Last year I 

would’ve had to re-mortgage or shut 

down,” he said. 

It will take several years to recover 

from the $300,000 loss, he added. 

“That was me and my family’s paycheque 

for the year,” he said. 

The two weeks after Puratone entered 

creditor protection Sept. 12 

were particularly stressful because 

he didn’t know his corn crop would 

pull him through. 

“The first two weeks, there was no 

sleeping,” he said. “It was a dry fall so 

(I) didn’t think the corn crop would 

even make average. What are you 

going to have to sell? How are you 

going to survive this?” 

Puratone produces 500,000 hogs 

per year and is the third largest hog 

production company in Manitoba. 

With record high feed costs this summer, 

Puratone was losing $20 to $50 

on every hog it sold. 

Maple Leaf Foods announced in 

early November that it was buying 

Puratone’s 50 barns and three feed 

mills for $42 million. The deal will 

likely be completed by December. 

In a statement, Maple Leaf said it 

isn’t planning immediate changes 

for Puratone’s barns, which have 

remained operational during the 

creditor protection period. 

However, it is unclear how the $42 

million will be distributed to Puratone’s 

creditors. 

A court appointed monitor, Deloitte 

and Touche, is overseeing the creditor 

protection process. Puratone 

owes $40.8 million to the Bank of 

Montreal, $40.2 million to Farm 

Credit Canada and $5 million to 

Manitoba Agricultural Services 

Corp. All three are secured creditors. 

A creditor list, which is available 

online, indicates that Puratone owes

$20,000 to $300,000 each to dozens of 

Manitoba farmers who delivered 

grain to the company before it applied 

for court protection. 

John Sigurdson, who farms near 

Riverton, Man., is out $60,000 after 

delivering grain to Puratone’s feed 

mill in Arborg, Man. 

“As it stands right now … we are 

looking for a lawyer that works in 

bankruptcy and insolvency,” Sigurdson 

said. “As soon as your grain got 

there, it was made into feed and away 

it went.” 

Wiebe assumed Puratone was 

bonded and that he would eventually 

be paid for his grain. Besides, Puratone 

had called and asked him to 

deliver his winter wheat. 

“They phoned me and kept bugging 

me to bring in grain. They were 

short of grain, they said. So I brought 

grain in for three weeks.” 

On top of his financial loss, Wiebe 

said a telephone conversation in the 

middle of September with Puratone 

chief executive officer Ray Hildebrand 

put him over the edge. 

“When I phoned the CEO, the big 

boy, he told me his pigs were more 

important than my farm.” 

The Western Producer phoned 

Puratone for comment but the company 

declined. 

Because of his loss and what he 

calls a flippant reaction from Puratone, 

Wiebe has joined the group of 

Manitoba farmers considering a lawsuit 

to recover their money. 

At this point, however, it’s not clear 

who they will sue because Puratone 

owes more money than it received 

from Maple Leaf. 

As well, Maple Leaf bought Puratone’s 

assets rather than the entire 

company, which means it isn’t 

responsible for Puratone’s liabilities 

under Canadian regulations. 

“We had a specific agreement in

Since Maple Leaf Foods announced 

Nov. 1 that it was buying Puratone, 

several Manitoba farmers and 

Manitoba MP James Bezan have 

said Maple Leaf should compensate 

producers who sold grain to Puratone 

and never received payment. 

In a response, Maple Leaf spokesperson 

David Bauer said the following: 

“Maple Leaf is investing over $40 

million to acquire this business and 

keep it operating. This includes 

paying full price for the grain, as 

part of the purchase price. Once 

the deal closes, which we expect in 

about a month, or a little less, these 

funds will be paid to the court, 

which determines how the funds 

are distributed. We are already paying 

fair market value for the grain 

and the pigs. And we are equally 

committed to paying fair and competitively, 

going forward.”

which does not include the outstanding 

debt,” said Maple Leaf spokesperson 

David Bauer. 

Keystone Agricultural Producers 

president Doug Chorney has heard 

more than a dozen complaints from 

Manitoba farmers about the Puratone 

deal. 

He said it’s unfair that the entity that 

replaces Puratone can walk away 

from its financial obligations. 

“We don’t think it’s acceptable for 

this business to carry on and all these 

farmers not getting paid anything for 

their grain,” he said. 

“This creditor protection … prohibited 

anyone from taking any action 

and now it seems like everyone gets 

off without any responsibility.” 

KAP is looking to organize a meeting 

in the next few weeks with the 

players involved, including Maple 

Leaf, Puratone and producers, to see 

if there is a way forward. 

Bauer said Maple Leaf is open to the 

idea. 

“We’re open to engaging all stakeholders 

as part of the process.”

SHIPPING | CAR UNLOADS 

WINNIPEG — Grain is rushing 

through the Canadian transportation 

network in the first months 

after the death of the CWB’s export 

monopoly. 

“Overall, things are looking pretty 

good,” said Mark Hemmes, manager 

of the federally appointed 

grain system monitor Quorum 

Corp., in a speech during the Fields 

on Wheels conference Nov. 6. 

That perception dominated the 

conference, which is the grain 

industry’s annual logistics forum. 

Not only has the system not broken 

down as a new set of logistical signals 

were switched on, but remarkable 

efficiency gains have been 

seen since Aug. 1. 

“For the first 13 weeks of this year, 

we have started to bust unloading 

paradigms, between both railroads 

in co-operation with grain companies, 

about capacity in Vancouver,” 

said Canadian Pacific Railway grain 

shipping manager Murray Hamilton. 

“Is this the new norm? Is that 

what’s going to be sustainable 

going forward?” 

Car unloading totals in Vancouver 

are at levels almost unimaginable 

10 years ago, while shipping 

through Thunder Bay has hit nearrecord 

levels in recent weeks and 

the port of Churchill has seen good 

grain flow. 

The lack of significant problems in 

the grain transportation business is 

a pleasant surprise to many in the 

Canadian grain industry, considering 

that the CWB played a dominant 

role in many aspects of the 

grain logistics system, from organizing 

sales to ordering and organizing 

rail car allocation to directing 

grain to port terminals. 

Many players, such as grain companies, 

some farm groups and grain 

merchants, argued for years that 

the system could be more efficient 

without the CWB’s involvement 

because it added an extra layer of 

complexity to the system. 

However, many of the same players 

feared the switchover could 

reveal unforeseen gaps in the system 

or faulty structures as the new 

system evolved. 

Those problems have not materialized. 

“Is this all about the CWB? I’m not 

ready to say that yet,” said Hemmes. 

“But I can tell you that things are 

looking really good.” 

The industry had more than a 

year to prepare for the end of the 

monopoly, with federal agriculture 

minister Gerry Ritz making it 

clear as soon as the Conservative 

government won a majority that 

he intended to kill the board’s 

monopoly powers. 

Hemmes said he believes the railway 

companies didn’t want to be 

the cause of system problems so 

they knuckled down to ensure that 

didn’t happen. 

“The railways went into this crop 

year with a mindset that said 

nobody’s going to (be able to) 

blame us for this, so it’s working,” 

said Hemmes. 

Hamilton said the months before 

Aug. 1 were a harried time, with a 

feeling of “organized mayhem” 

within his company as it prepared 

for the new logistics signals. 

Weekly Vancouver grain car 

unloads of more than 4,500, well 

above the 4,000 per week average of 

the past five years, revealed extra 

capacity that has been hiding within 

the system. 

Hamilton said CPR’s new chief 

executive officer, Hunter Harrison, 

is pushing his grain people to find 

more. 

“He is absolutely convinced that 

there is more capacity out there,” 

said Hamilton. 

“Between railroads and grain

SHIPPING | PRODUCER CARS 

Producer 

car orders 

resilient 

BY ED WHITE 


Producer cars have shown surprising 

resilience in the post-CWB 

monopoly world. 

Producer car orders are pouring into 

the system after a slow start and service 

appears to be good, even though 

many thought there would be no 

place for them without a monopoly. 

“I thought the producer cars were 

going to disappear,” said Quorum 

Corp. manager Mark Hemmes at the 

Fields on Wheels conference Nov. 6. 

“We’re seeing a fair number of producer 

cars and they’re moving.” 

Hemmes’ surprise reflects that of 

many in the grain industry, who 

doubted that the railways would willingly 

provide producer cars or haul 

them once the CWB lost the power to 

confront the railways. 

Murray Hamilton, grain shipping 

manager with Canadian Pacific Railway, 

said the good service reflects the 

commitment his company made 

before the monopoly was broken Aug. 1. 

“From our perspective, it was going 

to be no change,” said Hamilton. 

If farmers ordered cars, they would 

be delivered. 

Hamilton said producer car orders 

fell 27 percent year-over-year in the 

first weeks of the post-monopoly 

period, but in recent weeks they have 

caught up to last year levels and in 

some weeks exceeded them.

DURUM | PRODUCTION OUTLOOK 

BY ROBIN BOOKER 

SASKATOON OFFICE 

Durum prices might strengthen in 

the new year, but the rally may come 

too late to hold acres as producers 

consider more profitable crops when 

making next year’s seeding decisions. 

Jim Peterson, marketing director 

for the North Dakota Wheat Commission, 

said 2012 world durum 

production was 1.3 billion bushels, 

down slightly from 2011 and down 

200 million bu. from 2009’s record 

crop of 1.5 billion bu. 

Better spring weather helped North 

America increase production last 

summer. Canada’s crop rose to 161 

million bu. from last year’s 153 million 

while the U.S. crop jumped 60 

percent to 81 million bu. 

However, that was not enough to 

offset production problems in the 

European Union, Kazakhstan, Syria 

and Turkey. 

“It’s been about three years in a row 

that the world durum production has 

contracted, so that’s obviously a little 

bit bullish for prices,” Peterson said 

in an interview summarizing the 

presentation he gave at the wheat 

commission’s annual outlook meeting 

Nov.13 in Minot, N.D.

BY SEAN PRATT 


The enormous spread between 

green and yellow peas will narrow in 

the coming months as green prices 

fall and yellows rise, predicts a pulse 

analyst. 

The average delivered elevator 

price for green peas in Saskatchewan 

was $12.25 per bushel as of Nov. 19, 

compared to $8.47 per bu. for yellows. 

That works out to a spread of $3.78 

per bu., largely due to a shortage of 

green pea production in Canada. 

Green and yellow peas were 

essentially parallel priced until 

November 2011, when it became 

clear Canada had harvested a disappointing 

crop. 

“That’s when greens initially started 

to inch away and then eventually 

started to run away from yellows,” 

said Harold Davis, author of prairiecropcharts.com. 

Stat Publishing said green pea 

prices are bolstered by a poor crop in 

Argentina, where growers are 

expected to harvest 170,000 tonnes of 

green peas, down from pre-harvest 

forecasts of 200,000 tonnes. 

There are concerns that only 30 

percent of Argentina’s crop will be 

equivalent of a No. 2 grade in North 

America, with 41 percent destined 

for livestock feed or extremely price 

conscious markets. 

Davis thinks the rapid run-up in 

green prices could be coming to an 

end. 

“They’re in a fast bull market and 

that’s often the prelude to topping 

action,” he said. 

Larry Weber of Weber Commodities 

Ltd. agreed. He advises his subscribers 

to make certain their green 

peas are sold before Statistics 

Canada comes out with its first acreage 

estimate in April because growers 

will plant as much green pea seed 

as they can get their hands on. 

Davis is bullish on yellow peas 

because they are such good value. At 

one point in late September, the crop 

was selling for the same price as feed 

peas f.o.b. farm in Saskatchewan. 

“Since then, yellows have rebounded 

a little bit in prices whereas feed 

peas have gone sideways, so that 

spread has opened up a little bit,” he 

said. 

The spread has grown to 73 cents a 

bu., and Davis expects it to continue 

to widen as yellow peas snap out of 

their slumber. Buyers have been 

holding off on purchases because of 

a currency crisis, but Canadian pulse

North Africa, which accounts for 50 

percent of world durum imports, has 

reduced demand because it is coming 

off two good growing years with 

production hovering around 200 

million bu., up from 160 million bu. 

in 2010, Peterson said. 

Frayne Olson, a crops economist 

and marketing specialist at North 

Dakota State University, told the 

meeting there is limited downward 

risk for durum prices, with the excep- 

tion of two potential clouds: fiscal 

problems in Europe and the socalled 

fiscal cliff that the U.S. Congress 

needs to address by Jan.1. 

“Underlying supply conditions for 

all of our major commodities are very 

positive right now. The downside risk 

in prices is limited, with the exception 

of these two things that are really 

outside the realm of agriculture,” 

Olson said. 

“On a commodity standpoint, any 

hint of a recession or cutback on con- 

exporters say that situation is beginning 

to resolve itself. 

“I would expect yellows at some 

point to reawaken and head to higher 

ground,” he said. 

Feed pea prices have gained 

strength from the runup in corn and 

soy meal markets, a result of the devastating 

U.S. drought. However, feed 

peas haven’t come off their highs the 

way corn and soybeans have. 

Davis suspects feed pea prices will 

stay where they are for awhile, even if 

corn and soy meal prices rebound, 

because they didn’t cool off when the 

Chicago commodities did. 

sumer spending will put a negative 

tone into the commodity markets.” 

Peterson said durum acres in the 

United States and Canada will fall 

more than 10 percent next year if the 

current price relationship with hard 

spring wheat holds. 

“We’re already hearing of some 

early seed sales from guys that sell 

certified seed,” Peterson said. 

“There is pretty strong interest in 

spring wheat from typical durum 

growers.” 

Cash bids for durum and hard red 

spring wheat are about equal, at $8 

to$8.25 per bu. in North Dakota and 

Montana. 

Olson said durum is below spring 

wheat in terms of per acre profitability, 

which is below corn or soybeans. 

“If you can raise a respectable crop 

of corn or soybeans, spring wheat 

runs a distant third and durum is 

below that,” Olson said. 

Many producers want a premium 

for growing durum rather than 

spring wheat because of the increased 

risk in meeting the tight 

quality specifications, Peterson said. 

“Most producers feel that with how 

small the U.S. durum crop was in 

2011, and the potential trend for 

acres to be cut again next year in the 

U.S. and Canada, somewhere north 

of $10 a bushel is not too high, especially 

when you compare to corn at 

$5.50 and even winter wheat in the $8 

to $9 range,” Peterson said. 

The U.S. durum industry sees the 

potential to lose durum acres next 

year but has been getting the durum

Research said feed peas are

prices. 

“As long as feed wheat prices stay

firm and provide a floor for yellow

edition of Alberta Pulse Growers’ 

Pulse Market Insight newsletter.

are being shipped to Spain, where 

they will be used in the livestock 

industry. He said the strong demand 

for feed peas is alleviating concerns 

about the potential for weaker pea

market higher, he added. 

“They seem to be waiting right 

before planting time,” Peterson said. 

“If they feel they need more acres, 

they will step up and do more buying, 

but producers in the U.S. and Canada 

are locking in contracts and making 

seeding decisions certainly by the 

first of the year,” he said. 

“It’s difficult to pick up significant 

acres with a price run right at planting.” 

This year’s crop was generally high 

quality so there is little premium for 

protein. 

Olson said there is a big difference 

in how Canadian and American 

durum is marketed. Seventy-eight of 

the crop is used domestically in the 

U.S., while 85 percent of Canada’s 

crop is exported. 

“The U.S. is really a domestic driven 

market,” he said. “When millers and 

pasta companies start buying, that’s 

when we know there is some activity 

and their inventories are getting low. 

Some Canadian durum does come 

into the States, but lots of it goes to 

other parts of the world like Europe 

and North Africa.” 

Olson said Canadian producers 

will have to be aware of changing 

supply-demand conditions in the 

new open market. 

“Canadian farmers are going to 

recognize that price movements can 

be fairly quick up or down.” 

The durum market is small, he said, 

which leads to periods of volatility. 

Bids can suddenly increase when a 

buyer needs to assemble a ship load 

for an export order.

Future rosy for some, not for others 

Feedlots, packers suffer 

| Small calf supply, high 

feed price will hurt 

STORIES BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH 

CALGARY BUREAU 

Next year could be the worst of 

times or the best of times for the 

North American beef industry, 

depending on the sector. 

The cow-calf sector may enjoy 

record prices, but ongoing drought in 

the United States and escalating feed 

grain prices could drive other sectors 

further into the red. 

Calf prices could hit record levels 

next year, said Duane Lenz, market 

analyst with Cattlefax based in Denver, 

Colorado. 

“We look for record high prices next 

year. That could be the cyclical top,” 

he said at the Canfax market forum in 

Calgary Nov. 14. 

“Cattle prices cannot continue to go 

up forever. At some point gravity will 

take hold.” 

To get stronger calf prices would 

require a break in the U.S. drought. 

Pastures must recover to give producers 

confidence to buy calves. 

Cattlefax expects 550 pound steers 

to average $185 per hundredweight 

next year, exceeding this year’s average 

of $168. Feeders weighing 750 lb. 

could go as high as $160 per cwt. with 

an average for the year of $147. 

Finished cattle prices could be 

higher than $130 per cwt., which 

would be a record and likely short 

lived. Fed cattle averaged $95 per 

cwt. in 2010. 

However, corn prices could average 

$6.20 per bushel next year with peaks 

a dollar higher. 

Feedlots will suffer as feed supplies 

tighten and competition grows for a 

small calf supply. American feedlots 

already have too many open pens 

and are losing about $150 per head. 

“We will start to lose some yards, 

unfortunately,” he said. 

Packers may close because they 

also face excess capacity and large 

losses. Some wondered if XL Foods in 

Brooks, Alta., would be the next casualty, 

but JBS-USA taking over its management 

means it is likely to survive. 

The Canadian beef industry is 

shrinking, but it continues to punch 

above its weight class. 

But with declining beef consumption 

at home, hopes for expansion 

depend largely on export success. 

“Canada is a relatively small player 

in the export market with only about 

two percent of the global beef cow 

inventories,” said Andrea Brocklebank, 

head of research for Canfax. 

While Canada places only ninth 

globally in the size of its cow inventory, 

it is the world’s fifth largest beef 

exporter, shipping out 44 percent of 

production as beef and live cattle. 

Per capita beef consumption fell 

to 20 kilograms per year, down from 

about 25 kg in 1980. 

Poultry consumption is steady 

and pork is falling. 

Calf prices next year will get a boost if U.S. pastures recover from this year’s drought. | FILE PHOTO 

It is becoming increasingly difficult 

to predict prices because only 30 

percent of U.S. cattle are now traded 

on the cash market. The rest are sold 

on contract or managed through 

alternative marketing agreements. 

As well, record prices do not guarantee 

profits. Industry players must 

find ways to protect themselves 

against this risk and volatility, said 

Canfax manager Brian Perillat. 

Canadian markets reflect what 

happens in the U.S., but Perillat said 

prices here are not likely to be as high 

because of a wide basis that has 

dogged the business all year. 

Finished cattle prices were mostly 

flat this year with no spring rally. 

The last strong year was 2001, when 

fed cattle fetched $121 per cwt. 

Markets were volatile with fed cattle 

prices moving as much as $40 per 

head from one day to the next. 

There is 30 percent excess capacity 

in western Canadian feedlots, where 

losses hit as much as $200 per head. 

The basis spread between Alberta 

and Nebraska cash prices has been 

wider than normal and can cost 

Canadians up to $50 per head.

Canada imports more than a quarter 

of its beef, especially for manufacturing 

quality and some middle meat 

when there is a deficit. 

The United States is the primary 

export destination. Twenty eight

year, assuming a par dollar with average 

basis levels. Summer lows will be 

$110 to $115. 

Calves 550 pounds averaged $151 

per cwt. this year and there could still 

be a record price in November once 

the final numbers are crunched. 

Cow prices are strengthening. XL 

Foods processed a lot of cows so its 

closure drove down prices this fall. 

XL Foods’ closure because of E. coli 

contamination forced producers to 

find alternative markets for their 

cattle. Cargill Meat Solutions at High 

River, Alta., increased its kill capacity 

and more cattle went to the U.S. 

Fed cattle exports reached 16,000 

per week in October while XL Foods 

was closed, up from a normal 4,000. 

Perillat said the signals are encouraging 

cow-calf producers to start 

expanding, but that may not be evident 

until 2015. 

Canada lost a quarter of its herd in 

the last seven years, but there was a 

small uptick in cow numbers in the 

last inventory report. A few more 

heifers were retained, but the population 

remains flat. 

“It is critical that our industry starts 

Twenty-five percent of Canadian 

beef goes to California’s Hispanic 

communities looking for leaner

Mexico and Hong Kong are Canada’s

Russia has imported various cuts 

and offal in the past. 

Moscow has invested heavily in the 

pork and poultry industries and is 

focusing more on dairy production 

than beef. Most beef is a byproduct of 

dairy production. 

The government has said it wants to 

be self sufficient in beef by 2020. 

“We haven’t seen the growth that 

matches with that policy,” she said. 

“The big question is if the government 

were to actually pursue that, 

what would it actually do.” 

to turn this corner,” he said. 

Producers remain cautious 

because profits have been elusive. 

In the U.S., expansion depends on 

the drought ending. Producers may 

consider expansion if there is water 

and grass next year, but cow slaughter 

will go up if it is another dry year. 

“If we come into another year of 

drought, that cow slaughter will be 

different because we have nowhere 

to go with cows. They will have to 

come to town to be slaughtered,” he 

said. 

However, Perillat anticipates profitability 

in the cow-calf sector and 

thinks producers would consider 

keeping heifers for breeding, not 

slaughter, if conditions are good. 

There were 35.5 million cows in the 

U.S. in 1996. That has since dropped 

to 29.7 million. 

However, carcass weights are growing 

, making up for fewer cows. 

The average carcass will be 833 lb. 

next year compared to 670 lb. in 1980 

because of more productive cows 

and growth promotants. 

“Increasing weights offset 75 percent 

of the declining cow herd over 

the last 20 years,” Lenz said. 

Japan was once a promising market, 

but consumption is flat. The 

economy is stagnant and beef is 

more expensive than other meats. 

“The return to beef may not be as 

ambitious as we once thought.” 

Canadian beef exports to Japan 

might improve if that country 

changed its food safety rule to accept 

beef from cattle younger than 30 

months rather than 21 months, 

Brocklebank said. 

South Korea granted Canada access 

earlier this year. Beef consumption is 

up and the herd is shrinking, which 

encourages imports. 

However, the U.S. saturated the 

market when it signed a free trade 

agreement earlier in the year. 

Canada struggles without a similar 

agreement. 

CANFAX FORUM | INTERNATIONAL 

Dairy culls 

make India 

leading beef 

exporter 

The global beef industry has 

changed a lot in the last five years as 

India unexpectedly emerged as a 

major exporter. 

“It is number four and could move 

up to number one or two very shortly 

and this is not going to diminish,” said 

Andrea Brocklebank, head of 

research for Canfax. 

Most Indian beef comes from water 

buffalo and dairy cattle. Southeast 

Asia and the North Africa-Middle 

East regions are India’s main beef 

export markets, she said at Canfax’s 

market forum in Calgary Nov. 14. 

Australia, the United States and 

Brazil are the top three exporters. 

Canada is in fifth place. 

Much of the growth in India is driven 

by increased milk production. The 

National Dairy Plan calls for milk 

production to increase by six million 

tonnes a year for the next five years. 

Twelve new meat processing plants 

are being built to handle the extra 

production. India’s biggest challenge 

is foot-and-mouth disease, which is 

controlled with vaccination. This 

affects market access. 

Brocklebank said the world’s cattle 

herds are shrinking and the beef supply 

has declined for 10 years. 

“There is an expectation in 2013 

that the cattle inventories will decline 

a bit more, but it definitely has levelled 

off,” she said. 

Population sparks demand 

GIRA, the international data group, 

predicts a good future for the beef 

industry because of a growing world 

population and improved incomes. It 

projects a six percent increase in 

global beef consumption over the 

next 10 years. 

However, Brocklebank said bad 

weather and unexpected economic 

disruptions may play havoc with 

some of the projections. 

Food market analyst David Hughes 

of the Imperial College of London 

said perspective is needed when talking 

about global meat markets. 

Global meat consumption rose by 

16 million tonnes between 2007 and 

2012. However, 10 million tonnes of 

that growth was for chicken. 

Growth is slow in mature markets 

such as Canada, the U.S. and the 

European Union, but this is where the 

wealthiest consumers live and they 

are likely to spend more on meat, 

even if they buy less. 

“The big spenders on groceries are 

all in the developed world,” he said. 

Marketers need to study the demographics 

of an aging population with 

smaller households and fewer 

babies. The last census showed more 

than half of Canadian households 

comprise one or two people. In the 

United Kingdom, 65 percent of 

households are this small. 

Plans to sell more to Japan should 

be reassessed. Japan has 130 million 

people, but by 2050, close to 40 percent 

of the population will be older 

than 65. Seniors tend to have less 

money and eat less. 

China is a growing economy but it 

would be unwise to over rely on it, he 

said.

Canola, soybeans give back gains won this year 

Reversal of fortune for oilseeds | Sad situation 

for farmers who held onto oilseeds, hoping for 

tight stocks and strong demand 

BY ED WHITE 


So much for the myth of rock-solid 

vegetable oil demand turning canola 

and soybeans into the big price 

queens of late 2012. 

The two crops have given back all 

the gains they won in this year’s rally 

sparked by the U.S. Midwest drought. 

January canola futures are struggling 

to stay above $13 per bushel and soybean 

futures have fallen to less than 

$14 per bu. 

At the same time, spring wheat 

futures are still 15 percent above 

where they were before the drought 

and corn is 40 percent higher. 

It’s a sad situation for farmers who 

hung onto their oilseeds, expecting 

that tight stocks and strong demand 

would lift values higher. 

“I’m a little surprised that we’ve 

been able to push below $14 here,” 

said analyst Rich Nelson of Allendale, 

Inc. of McHenry, Illinois. 

“In the big picture, the prospect of 

demand staying this strong was 

maybe a little too optimistic.” 

North America’s oilseed markets 

were rocked by news last week that 10 

export shipments of U.S. soybeans 

had been cancelled. That destroyed 

the assumption of many analysts, 

traders and farmers that while crop 

buyers could cut back on cereal 

grains, they would not reduce oilseed 

purchases regardless of the high 

prices.

made it appear on the charts as if the 

Midwest drought had never 

occurred. 

Analyst Greg Kostal of Kostal Ag 

Consulting in Winnipeg said this is a 

story of North American oilseeds 

being way out of whack with the 

world market. 

“We’re reminded once again that 

canola is simply another oilseedconsuming 

choice,” said Kostal. 

Palm oil has been trading at a $250 

to $300 per tonne discount to canola 

oil and soybean oil, and that can’t go 

on forever. 

“That has some incremental 

demand-changing behavior down 

the road,” said Kostal. 

Canadian export sales statistics 

aren’t as available or current as U.S. 

soybean numbers, but Kostal said 

he’s hearing that weakness is also 

appearing in overseas canola demand. 

“The initiation of new export business 

has significantly slowed down,” 

said Kostal. 

“We’re just executing old business 

and the bulk of (present canola sales) 

is in the domestic crush.” 

News of improving growing conditions 

in South America are allowing 

anxious importers to back away from 

the U.S. market when planning late 

winter buying, with China expected to 

switch to cheaper South American 

soybeans when they become available. 

Kostal said the incoming Australian 

canola crop will probably pick up the 

U.S. supply might increase as cattle 

placed during the summer drought 

reach market weight.

WPEDITORIAL OPINION 

GRAIN DEALERS | BOND PROTECTION 

Payment guarantee system 

essential to protect farmers 

Many in the grain industry are 

raising questions about the 

value in forcing grain dealers to 

post bonds to ensure farmers are paid 

when companies become insolvent. 

They are right to do so. 

The Conservative government’s 

strong-arm tactics in rushing its lengthy 

and complex budget through Parliament 

without allowing enough time for 

proper oversight are troublesome, but 

the part of the bill that would change the 

Canada Grain Act should not be dismissed. 

The act now requires grain dealers to 

post bonds as insurance should they ever 

declare bankruptcy or seek protection 

from creditors. 

This bonding system adds onerous 

costs into the system, tying up muchneeded 

capital that could be better 

invested elsewhere. And there are serious 

doubts as to how effective it is in protecting 

farmers anyway. 

There have been several situations in 

the past in which bonds held by insolvent 

companies have fallen short of the 

amounts needed to pay money owed to 

farmers. 

In some cases, farmers have been 

forced to accept payments worth only 

cents on the dollar for amounts owed. 

It’s time to explore other options. 

Having grain dealers take out private 

insurance offers one potential solution. 

This eliminates the need for companies 

to have a pool of money set aside at the 

ready for a bond. 

By most insider accounts, insurance 

would cost only a fraction of what companies 

now put up in the bonding system. 

This type of change has raised questions 

in the agriculture sector about 

who will pay the costs of the premiums. 

There are fears that grain companies 

would pass along the insurance costs to 

farmers. 

In reality, however, farmers are already 

paying those costs. 

As astute business operators, it’s safe to 

assume grain companies have found 

Scores of heavy hitters from the 

grain industry are meeting at 

a downtown Ottawa hotel this 

week to celebrate “the dawn of a new 

era in Canada’s grain industry.” 

Who could argue? 

It has been a tumultuous year in the 

grain industry, particularly on the 

Prairies: the most dramatic in decades 

if not the last half-century or more. 

The CWB monopoly is gone after 69 

ways to ensure that their operating costs, 

including bonding expenses, are covered 

in their fees and payment schedules. 

In fact, with a more effective and lower 

cost insurance scheme, farmers could 

become beneficiaries of some of the efficiencies. 

Clearing-house option 

Another option being circulated to 

reduce risk in grain sales is a clearinghouse 

model, similar to what is used at 

many stock and commodity exchanges. 

These systems safely manage millions 

of dollars in deals between buyers and 

sellers, and there is every reason to believe 

that a properly constructed and 

managed system would work effectively 

for farmers delivering grain. 

A clearing house is a neutral entity that 

settles trading accounts, clears trades and 

regulates delivery and payments. It acts 

as third party guarantor. 

At futures exchanges, all members are 

required at the end of each day to clear 

their trades and post enough money to 

cover their deals. The clearing house is 

responsible for fulfillment of all contracts. 

The finer details of how this type of system 

would work for grain deliveries 

would have to be worked out, but it is not 

difficult to see how something similar 

could fit the bill. 

One possible drawback of whatever 

system is in place is that farmers would 

have a learning curve while they adjust. 

However, proper business practices, 

as well as awareness campaigns to 

ensure farmers know how best to protect 

themselves, should address those 

issues. 

Making the system mandatory for deals 

above a certain value would further 

ensure farmers aren’t left out of pocket. 

There seems to be little to lose. 

years, the century-old Canadian 

Grain Commission is about to undergo 

a dramatic change in how it does 

business with more to come and 

changes to the variety registration 

system are on the radar. 

So when the Canadian Grains Council/Grain 

Growers of Canada industry 

symposium opens this week, there is 

much on the plate. It has become the 

go-to national grain conference.

biofuel analysts and experts on government 

policy.

absent this year. 

What ever happened to the promised 

federal legislation to legislate 

rail service standards for shippers? 

It seems to have fallen off the agenda. 

For more than a year, transport 

minister Denis Lebel has had a report 

on the rail service issue that indicates 

deep industry unhappiness about 

service and railway opposition to 

new regulations. 

For five months, the minister has 

had a report from former Alberta 

finance minister Jim Dinning, who 

recommended the two sides try to 

work things out through voluntary 

service agreements but who also 

acknowledged deep divisions. 

At the time, Lebel urged voluntary 

agreement but made it clear that legislation 

was in the works as a backstop 

to make sure carriers played by 

the rules. 

In June, Coalition of Rail Shippers 

chair Bob Ballantyne said the government 

had given notice that legislation 

was in the works. Shippers who 

argue that the power balance 

between carriers and shippers is too 

one-sided to produce a functional 

voluntary service agreement system 

were told to get their comments in by 

the end of July. 

“We expect legislation in the fall for 

sure,” he said in late June. 

Yet with the autumn session of Parliament 

due to end in three weeks, 

there has been no government indication 

of impending legislation. 

Regina Liberal MP Ralph Goodale 

can say he told us so. 

In the summer, the former agriculture 

minister predicted that railway 

lobbyists would use the summer to

“stifle” any government move to create 

legislation. 

“They clearly hope this will go 

away.” 

As a veteran of railway lobbying 

during 13 years in Liberal governments, 

Goodale said the railways will 

try to delay legislation until the government 

loses interest. 

Lebel has three weeks to prove 

Goodale wrong, but so far he has 

shown little public interest in the file. 

And the grain industry meeting 

doesn’t even have it on the agenda. 

Perhaps organizers know that legislation 

is pending, but then wouldn’t 

the shipper meeting be a perfect 

place to announce it? 

Rail service seems to be a file that 

has slid off the radar of government 

priorities, which is odd for a government 

with a strong rural base.

B.T. CORN | GM VERSUS ORGANIC 

You can eat your bugs — and toxins, too 

BY CAMI RYAN AND ROB WAGER 

Science has led to increases in 

farm productivity and has 

helped farmers protect the 

environment. That’s why it’s such a 

shame when good science is maligned 

and poorly executed pseudoscience 

gets the spotlight. 

In his opinion piece Eat GM Corn? 

I’d Rather Eat Bugs, (Nov. 9th), NDP 

MP Alex Atamanenko delivers loads 

of misleading information. Here are 

a few counterpoints. 

Atamanenko says he’d rather eat 

bugs than B.t. corn, but fungal toxins, 

called fumoninins that follow bug 

damage on corn is a real health concern. 

Medical science has documented 

that fumonisin toxins can have devastating 

effects on a developing 

human fetus by blocking folic acid 

metabolism. 

Lack of folic acid can lead to terrible 

spinal cord defects in the baby. 

Research has been clear that B.t. 

corn has far less fumonisin than non- 

B.t. corn. A 2005 study in Italy found 

100 times lower fumonisin B1 levels 

in B.t. corn grown directly beside 

non-B.t. corn. 

In 2003, Great Britain’s Food Standards 

Agency examined 30 corn 

imports, six of which were organic

for fumonisin toxin. One had a 

toxin level almost 30 times the limit 

of 500 parts per million. 

It is quite evident that B.t. corn has 

significantly safer levels of fumonisin. 

Based on this fact alone, we are safer 

eating the GM corn than “the bugs.” 

Researchers take issue with an opinion piece slamming GM corn, saying 

it misrepresented good science and promoted a poor study. | FILE PHOTO 

However, Atamanenko can still 

choose the bugs, if he wishes, by eating 

organic corn where reduced toxin 

GM corn is prohibited. 

And how about industry and regulation? 

Industry manages trials and 

testing of new crop varieties based 

on guidelines developed by Environment 

Canada, Health Canada 

and the Canadian Food Inspection 

Agency. It must adhere to strict science-based 

protocols. 

It’s important to note that industry 

doesn’t pay for “approvals” but bears 

the cost of all trials and tests. The alternative 

is for taxpayers to foot the bill. 

However, does Atamanenko sup- 

port providing the tax funds? 

Atamanenko refers to a recent scientific 

study, calling it “damning” 

evidence on the safety of GM foods. 

If anything, this study is a “damning” 

example of poorly executed 

science. 

Gilles-Eric Séralini in France 

claimed that rats fed genetically 

modified corn or exposed to glyphosate 

suffered tumours and multiple 

organ damage. 

But the real scientists, including 

those in Europe, immediately refuted 

these claims. 

Séralini’s study was more an exercise 

in media manipulation than an 

THE WESTERN PRODUCER | WWW.PRODUCER.COM | NOVEMBER 22, 2012 

example of rigorous scientific work. 

Using a well-constructed public relations 

strategy and backed by anti- 

GM organizations, Séralini pushed 

this study into the media spotlight 

along with his personal agenda. 

It’s no coincidence that he launched 

an anti-GM book and a movie that 

same week. It appears as if the goal of 

the study was to “prove” something 

rather than to objectively “investigate” 

something. 

There are key problems with this 

study: 

• Séralini did not disclose that the rat 

breed used as a model for the study 

had a genetic pre-disposition for 

getting tumours. 

• Séralini refused to release the 

methods and data that allow other 

scientists to replicate the work. 

Independent research scientists — 

“real” scientists, not lobbyists — and 

reputable food safety organizations 

have discredited the Séralini study, 

pointing out its many flaws. In short, 

Séralini’s work is an example of how 

“bad science” can get “good legs” in 

the media. 

Atamanenko takes a biased position 

here, misrepresenting good science 

and promoting poor science. 

It’s just politically motivated propaganda. 

We think that Canadian farmers 

and consumers deserve to know 

the facts.

INDUSTRY OUTLOOK | PREDICTIONS 

Crystal ball delivers cloudy picture of ag future 

HURSH ON AG 

KEVIN HURSH 

As a consultant- journalist-farmer, 

I’ve offered lots of opinions 

over the years. Looking back, 

some have been spectacularly 

wrong. 

Farmers naturally want analysis of 

the current trends in the industry, 

but they also want to hear extrapolations 

in an attempt to understand 

how the future might unfold. 

In the late 1990s, before PowerPoint 

presentations were reliable, I trucked 

an overhead projector to scores of 

farm meetings. One of my favourite 

pages listed the Top 10 uses for abandoned 

grain terminals. 

You could use the side of a terminal 

for a drive-in theatre screen. You 

could use them for bungee jumping. 

You could grind them up into aggregate 

for use on gravel roads. 

Those were the years of Saskatchewan 

Wheat Pool’s Project Horizon. 

New concrete elevators were going 

up everywhere. Other companies 

were also in the game and lots of 

farmer-owned terminals were being 

built. 

I bought shares in a farmer-owned 

terminal, but when competitors built 

six new concrete terminals in the 

area, I didn’t think there would be 

enough export grain to see them all 

thrive. 

As the big concrete and steel terminals 

went up, the old wooden elevators 

came down, but it appeared that 

the grain handling system was being 

dramatically overbuilt. After all, the 

big terminals need a lot of throughput 

to make them viable. 

At the time, it seemed plausible that 

Western Canada was going to see 

reduced grain exports. Being landlocked, 

our freight bill to port position 

puts us at a disadvantage compared 

to most competitors. Farmland 

was being converted to hay and 

pasture because cattle were profit- 

able and grain was not. 

Besides, I reasoned, our crop mix 

was going to be more heavily weighted 

to specialty grain that wouldn’t go 

through large concrete terminals. 

And more of our grain would be fed to 

livestock or receive secondary processing 

on the Prairies. That seemed 

logical given the end of the Crow rate 

grain transportation subsidy. 

The trouble with predictions is that 

you don’t know what you don’t know. 

Who could have predicted BSE in 

2003 and the years of resulting turmoil 

in the beef industry? Even 

though profitability has finally 

returned to the cow-calf industry, the 

beef breeding herd has continued to 

decline. 

Who could have predicted so many 

tough years for the hog industry? 

Rather than a Top 10 list for abandoned 

grain terminals, it should have 

been a list of uses for abandoned hog 

barns. 

Canola crushing has been Western 

Canada’s largest success in adding 

value. About half of the canola crop 

goes to domestic crushers, but 

there’s still ample grain volume 

through the big terminals. Field peas 

used to be reserved for specialty crop 

operations, but many terminals now 

handle peas. Some even export red 

lentils. 

Crop yields continue to grow, and 

we’re using more crop inputs than 

ever. The industry is enjoying its 

greatest profitability since the 1970s. 

There aren’t any abandoned concrete 

terminals. Anyone wanting to 

sell a terminal would have lots of 

suitors. 

These days, farm audiences want to 

know the future of land prices. Are 

the increases sustainable? What will 

happen with interest rates? Will the 

growing world population and the 

increased purchasing power of 

emerging economies propel grain 

prices to new heights? 

Definitely older and possibly more 

humble, my opinions are more subdued 

these days. There are lots of 

factors to analyze and pontificate 

over, but the future is often fraught 

with surprises.

VALUE-ADDED | PUBLIC MONEY 

Good times roll 

for value-added 

businesses 

EDITORIAL NOTEBOOK 

JOANNE PAULSON, EDITOR 

We recently published an op- 

ed by Michael Holden with 

the Canada West Foundation, 

who asked why we always talk 

about diversification when times are 

bad. 

Excellent question. We should be 

talking about it when times are good, 

when stuff like building buildings 

and buying machinery is actually 

affordable. 

Therefore, points go to the Saskatchewan 

government for discussing 

value-adding now, when agriculture 

has become ascendant and is even 

quite sexy. Sexy industries attract 

investment; moribund ones, not so 

much. 

Premier Brad Wall, in his vision for 

the province, said he wants ag 

exports to rise to $15 billion by 2020, 

up from $10 billion today. To achieve 

these stellar numbers, he wants to 

see investment in research and innovation, 

irrigation and value-added 

processing. 

The government has committed 

$20 million toward research in its latest 

budget, up 50 percent since 2007. 

About $30 million from both levels of 

government has gone into irrigation. 

Value-adding, however, apart from 

a couple of programs such as Saskatchewan 

Agri-Value Initiative for 

smaller businesses, receives little 

direct money. 

After a recent speech delivered to 

the Greater Saskatoon Chamber of 

Commerce, agriculture minister Lyle 

Stewart noted that most value-added 

investment would come from business. 

Government support is likely to 

come through tax relief and infrastructure. 

It might be the right 

approach. Past public sector investments 

into hogs and potatoes have 

certainly gone awry, at least from a 

taxpayer’s perspective. 

And, as Stewart rightly points out, 

there is more value-added business in 

Saskatchewan than ever before, notably 

canola crushers and pulse processors. 

Cargill, for example, hardly 

needs pittances from the government 

to support its business plans. 

Such value-added initiatives have 

indeed come from industry, although 

if Keith Downey and his crew had not 

created canola, there would be nothing 

to add value to. If you look at it 

that way, investing in research and 

waiting for business to commercialize 

the product makes sense. 

However, while agriculture in Saskatchewan 

is sexy right now, so it is in 

Manitoba, Alberta and the United 

States. Saskatchewan may have to be 

aggressive — and innovative — in 

attracting more value-added investment 

dollars.

MEGA-FARM REVOLUTIONS? 

To the Editor: 

I noticed your recent articles about 

mega-farms. We have them here, too. 

The inheritance tax was written to 

control them; it didn’t. Either some 

drastic measures must be taken or 

revolutions may result. Going back in 

history, mega-farms contributed to 

most of the revolutions I studied in 

history. 

We will start with the French Revolution. 

Most of the good farmland 

was owned by the rich, mostly kings’ 

favourites. The work was done by the 

serfs. If the land was sold, the serf was 

sold, too. The owners mostly lived in 

cities and never went near the farms 

OPEN FORUM 

except to hunt or collect rents. 

Some big plantation owners lived 

in England before the American 

Revolution. Most of them weren’t 

broken up at the end of the war as 

there was a lot of open land. For the 

most part, the absentee landlords 

were replaced. 

The Irish Revolution was another. 

The communist takeover was made 

much easier as the Russian nobility 

owned much of the land as megafarms. 

That was so common a poet 

wrote a poem about it, Noblesse 

Oblige. Its theme was the owners 

were not productive, as they did no 

work. 

The landowners were not productive, 

and only babies have the right to 

produce nothing, was the only line I

5525 CL is a yield-leading variety in all canola production

out-yielded Nexera ® 2012 by an average of 8 bu/ac 1 . 

The result: $50.36 1 per acre more in farmers’ pockets 

even after specialty oil premiums. With the freedom to 

market 5525 CL anywhere, and high net returns, 5525 CL 

crushes the competition.

the field. 

remember from that poem. 

Unless my memory fails me, a 

Canadian landowner has to live in 

Canada, be a citizen of Canada, or if 

he is not a citizen, have citizenship 

applied for, and follow through in a 

reasonable length of time. I know 

four people who lost their Canadian 

land because of this law, or so they 

said. Three of them are dead. 

Yes, mega-farms are a problem to 

Canada, but no match for the ones in 

the U.S. Our farm program helps the 

big farmers more than the mediumsized 

ones. I think it is a good time to 

be old if you are a U.S. citizen. 

And then, we have the death tax. It 

really is hard to pay for the farm every 

generation. What is wrong with the 

death tax is the rich people don’t

LEADING US WHERE? 


I never thought I’d say this, but I may 

be lucky to be living in a riding represented 

by a member of Parliament on 

the government side — Conservative 

Robert Sopuck, Dauphin-Swan River- 

Marquette — after all. 

I say this because the government 

Mr. Sopuck represents, under Stephen 

Harper, has decided the Assiniboine 

River, one of millions of lakes, 

rivers and streams in Canada, is 

among the very few designated as 

protected under its new Navigation 

Protection Act. It happens to flow 

through Mr. Sopuck’s riding, not far 

from where I live. 

This protection means that ice fishers, 

anglers and pleasure boaters will 

keep their historic right, which dates 

back to Sir John A. (Macdonald) himself, 

to navigate the river without 

being obstructed by any more bridges, 

mining or forestry equipment, 

pipelines or dams. 

At least, any proposed new infrastructure 

of this kind will need a permit 

from Ottawa. That apparently 

won’t be the case for all those unprotected 

waterways. They, by contrast, 

will be wide open for business. And, 

according to the opposition, the vast 

majority of those are said to fall 

within non-government ridings. 

So, as you may have guessed by 

now, I speak with tongue in cheek. 

In fact, this kind of thing simply 

reeks of patronage, cynicism and 

hypocrisy — a shoddy new low, even 

for the Harperites. 

It exposes for all to see that the 

“cloak of green” Mr. Sopuck likes to 

put on to cleverly disguise himself as 

an environmentalist is now threadbare 

— as is Mr. Harper’s pledge in his 

election victory speech to be “a leader 

for all Canadians.”

CONSERVATIVE GRATITUDE 


Thanks to prime minister Stephen 

Harper and minister of agriculture 

Garry Ritz, we now have the Conservative 

Wheat Board, all political 

appointees, since all our elected 

farmer directors were fired. The 

farmers for Just Us seem to think they 

have marketing freedom. What a 

farce. We are now all slaves to the 

vagaries of a fluctuating market.

thankful to our government: austerity

MEAT CHOICES 


On a recent trip to a grocery store in 

Morinville, Alta., I observed a lady 

next to me buying two dozen or more 

packages of wieners. The cashier 

asked if they were on sale, since she 

had so many. 

FUNDRAISING | UNIQUE METHODS 

Not all bazaars 

are the same 

SPIRITUAL VIGNETTES 

JOYCE SASSE 

The men in one small community 

looked forward to the seasonal 

bake sale at the church. 

They knew the ladies had a table full 

of goodies set aside just for them. 

Through the years, they knew that 

Sarah made the best molasses cookies, 

Nellie’s cheese moons just 

couldn’t be beat and Dorothy’s syrup 

tarts were to die for. 

The ladies knew that the best way to 

the men’s hearts, and pocketbooks, 

was through these delectable offerings. 

This was a most successful 

enterprise. 

The Sunday school fundraiser was 

a rollicking success. Youth group 

members and their dads were in the 

basement working on a nativity display. 

Upstairs they had a comic book 

and toy exchange and offered to help 

the elderly collect the mail, get groceries 

and shovel their walks. 

The tea-drinking guests quickly 

offered to help as young servers tried 

to get the full cups of tea to their 

guests without spills. 

Meanwhile, a few young enthusiasts 

set out down main street to button-hole 

everyone with the query, 

“have you made your donation at the 

hall yet?” 

At another event, the youth group 

asked for a table so they could sell the 

bag of “popsicle plant-holders” they 

made. One salesman, looking rather 

bored, quietly watched folks drift by 

the table. Passersby convinced 

themselves they could support the 

kids by buying a couple of the $5 

items. By the end of the afternoon the 

storage bag was empty, and the kids 

were $250 richer. 

Dare we think beyond the immediate? 

Such community-building 

happenings instill a new sense of 

vitality and remind us of the resources 

that are too often hidden in 

plain view. 

Joyce Sasse writes writes for the Canadian 

Rural Church Network at at www.canadian 

ruralchurch.net. 

“No,” was her reply. “They are for 

the local food bank”. 

Just recently, Wildrose party leader 

Danielle Smith was in trouble for 

suggesting that surely some of the 

recalled beef from XL Foods could 

have been salvaged and, if cooked 

properly, could have been used to 

feed the hungry. 

Which is worse — feeding the poor 

hot dogs, i.e. wieners, laced with 

chemicals and nitrates and nitrites, 

which can cause colon and other 

cancers, or recalled beef, provided it 

is cooked properly? Not all the 

recalled beef was contaminated with 

E. coli and it could have been tested, 

I’m sure. 

On CBC’s Marketplace program 

Oct. 26, they were testing tenderized 

roasts and steaks done mechanically 

and they were laden with E. coli

farm growing and cutting its own

DIRTY TRICKS 


The Oct. 25 issue of The Western 

Producer contained a letter entitled 

Paper Wheat. There will be readers 

who remember the well-produced 

and well-acted play Paper Wheat, 

which toured Saskatchewan more 

than once. It was written around 

early farmers’ struggle to get out from 

under the grip of the private grain 

companies and create their own co- 

operatives, such as the late, once 

highly respected wheat pools. 

Aside from the fact that farmers are 

often their own worst enemies, there 

have been many dirty tricks pulled 

on all facets of farming these last few 

years, and this will likely continue 

since the few farmers left have little 

political power and little cohesiveness. 

If another up-to-date play were 

written, I would suggest the title 

Betrayed.

KEYSTONE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCERS | PROPOSED ASSOCIATION 

Manitoba growers surveyed on commodity group preferences 

Joint or separate organizations? | Steering committee consults farmers on proposed wheat and barley growers association 



The leaders of a proposed wheat 

and barley growers association in 

Manitoba will soon know if farmers 

want one or two organizations to 

represent cereal producers in the 

province. 

A steering committee led by Keystone 

Agricultural Producers sent a 

survey to 500 Manitoba growers this 

fall on the proposed association, said 

James Battershill, KAP policy analyst, 

who is leading the development of 

the new organization. 

The survey results are expected in 

D3152 

December and if a sufficient number 

of growers support the concept of a 

dual association, the organization 

could begin collecting a checkoff by 

Aug. 1, 2013. 

At this point, it’s not known if growers 

want a joint association or two 

separate organizations for wheat and 

barley, Battershill said. 

Speaking to 25 producers at a 

KAP meeting in Brandon in mid- 

November, Battershill said a growers 

association is needed to ensure 

that Manitoba producers have a 

say in breeding programs and varietal 

development for wheat and 

barley. 

D3153 

For example, Manitoba wheat 

growers need more varieties with 

fusarium resistance, he said. 

However, the mandate of the proposed 

wheat and barley association, 

assuming growers support a joint 

organization, is not defined, Battershill 

said. 

“Were not entirely comfortable 

making statements (on) exactly what 

this organization is going to do,” he 

said. “That’s going to be up to the 

interim board of directors, who represent 

the growing industry as a 

whole.” 

If the survey results are positive, the 

steering committee will appoint an 

NEW 

D3154S 

ReDefining Canola Performance 

interim board of directors for the 

association. The board will define 

the organization’s structure and priorities, 

Battershill said. 

At an Oct. 25 KAP meeting in Portage 

la Prairie, some producers 

raised concerns about the mandate 

of the proposed organization. They 

said growers associations often start 

out dispersing check-off dollars but 

evolve into agricultural lobby groups. 

Battershill has heard the concerns 

but it’s not easy to draw a clear distinction 

between lobbying and dispersing 

check-off dollars to research 

and market development.

think it’s ever envisioned that any of 

the commodity groups would be 

pursuing that explicitly,” he said. “In

the line into the policy realm.…. In 

the absence of the Canadian Wheat

Canadian wheat and barley producers, 

there is a void there for international 

market development.” 

At the KAP meeting in Brandon, 

Battershill provided a few possible 

figures for the checkoffs, such as 52 

cents per tonne for wheat and 44 

cents per tonne for barley. 

AGRIBITION | FUNDING 

Funds pledged 

to Regina event 

Promotion, tracking funded 

BY KAREN BRIERE 

REGINA BUREAU 

The federal and provincial governments 

kicked off Canadian Western 

Agribition Nov. 19 by announcing 

several financial commitments to the 

annual Regina show and officially 

opening a refurbished commercial 

cattle barn. 

David Anderson, parliamentary 

secretary to the federal natural 

resources minister and for the Canadian 

Wheat Board, said $147,000 

through the AgriMarketing Program 

would help the show promote itself 

in foreign markets and beef up its

He also announced $100,000 under 

the Livestock Auction Traceability 

Initiative “to assist show organizers 

to track movement of livestock.” 

The money is used to ensure all 

animals at Agribition have radio frequency 

identification tags and that 

their movement entering and leaving 

the show is tracked with mobile readers. 

Anderson said Canada is a leader in 

traceability and the practice is critical 

to maintaining international market 

access. 

The Saskatchewan government 

announced $56,000 for Agribition’s 

new Incoming Buyers Program. The 

money comes from the agriculture 

ministry’s International Market 

Development Program. 

Agriculture minister Lyle Stewart 

said the money, which leveraged 

additional support from the Alberta 

Livestock and Meat Agency and the 

Canadian Beef Breeds Council for a 

total $111,500, will provide travel 

incentives for international guests. 

He said the government recently 

announced its intention to increase 

exports to $15 billion by 2020 and 

Agribition has a role to play in that. 

Helping pre-qualified buyers with up 

to 50 percent of their costs of getting to 

the show is well worth it, he said. 

“This show generates about $27 

million a year usually,” Stewart said. 

“Other major shows of this magnitude 

have similar programs.” 

About 140,000 people attend the 

show each year. More than 800 international 

visitors from 70 countries 

are expected this year.

CANADIAN WESTERN AGRIBITION | BISON MARKETING 


REGINA BUREAU 

Saskatoon chef Anthony McCarthy 

waved a glossy brochure in front of 

the room full of bison producers and 

wondered why he’d never seen it 

before. 

If people like him, who know how to 

prepare bison and can introduce it to 

new consumers through restaurants, 

haven’t seen the professionally done 

brochures and recipe cards, then 

who has, he asked the Canadian 

Bison Association’s annual convention 

in Regina Nov. 18. 

“You’ve done the homework,” he 

said. “You’ve spent the money.” 

The Canadian restaurant industry 

does $63 billion in annual sales, or 

almost four percent of the country’s 

economic activity, McCarthy said. 

Hot trends include locally sourced, 

sustainably produced food that is 

simple and can be farm-branded. 

“There’s no reason why bison 

couldn’t be a hot trend,” he said. 

However, when he informally surveyed 

15 chefs across Canada, not 

one of them said they included bison 

cuts on their regular menus. Some of 

them occasionally feature bison as a 

premium product. 

He said the chefs he talked to 

identified several benefits of bison 

meat: 

• it is lean and healthy 

• customers like it 

• it adds to the demand for local 

product 

• it is a beef alternative 

McCarthy, who is executive chef at 

the Saskatoon Club, said there is also 

a move toward what he calls rustic or 

artisan food such as stew. Bison is a 

good fit for that type of meal. 

He said the chefs he talked to identified 

the biggest issues as price and 

availability of fresh product. 

He called his own suppliers and 

none of those he deals with had bison 

meat. 

Saskatchewan producer Hubert 

Esquirol said he understood that

RCMP are investigating after five

wounded near Saltcoats, Sask., on 

the weekend. 

Police received the report of the 

dead cattle from an area farmer in the 

early afternoon of Nov. 18. 

According to a news release, the 

owner of the cattle pegged their value 

at $10,000. 

Members of the Yorkton RCMP 

continue to investigate the incident 

with the assistance of a local veterinarian 

and Saskatchewan Environment. 

Anyone with information is asked 

to contact their local police or Saskatchewan 

Crime Stoppers at 800- 

222-8477. 


Producers told to zero in on chefs to get bison on menu 

Educate restaurants and hotels | Chef says bison could be a hot item if health benefits are properly marketed 

bison wasn’t available from suppliers 

because the volume of sales at restaurants 

didn’t justify selling it, particularly 

when the meat would have 

to be frozen to keep it longer. 

McCarthy said packaging to keep 

food fresher longer is so much better 

now that it might not be as big an 

issue. For example, bison steaks in 

individual cryovac packages would 

be more appealing for chefs’ use, he 

said. 

An Alberta producer said that one 

chef now buys an entire animal and 

uses the entire carcass. Bison broth 

has replaced beef broth to help keep 

the bison costs in line. 

“The biggest problem is going to be 

finding a chef who will use it all,” 

McCarthy said. 

“Storage space is going to be his biggest 

headache.” 

Bison is more expensive than beef 

for restaurants to buy and consequently 

a more expensive menu 

item. 

One producer asked if consumers 

were starting to think more about 

their health and were willing to pay 

the premium for bison because of the 

benefits. 

McCarthy said it was likely that cer- 

tain customers do, but chefs also 

need to know more about bison, 

which is where producers and the 

CBA could help. 

His informal survey identified poor 

marketing to chefs as a concern. 

He said there are 28 regional 

branches of the Canadian Culinary 

Federation that producers could 

help educate. As well, chefs at restaurants 

and hotels are usually willing to 

meet with producers. 

“Get an appointment with the chef 

and take a steak,” he said. “Or go with 

your meat rep.” 

He said chefs like to put farm names 

15 

on menus and learn about how the 

food was produced so that they can 

tell their guests. 

Murray Woodbury, the specialized 

livestock health and production 

research chair at the Western College 

of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon, 

said chefs and consumers should be 

aware of the value they’re getting 

when they pay the premium price for 

bison. 

It takes only six weeks to get a 

chicken to market compared to two 

years for bison. 

“You’ve got to look at what you’re 

getting, not just what it costs,” he said.

before activists take charge 

Public awareness lacking | Video project touts farmers’ stewardship efforts 

STORIES BY ED WHITE 


CARMAN, Man. — Farmers aren’t 

good at telling the public about the 

good sides of agriculture. 

They not only live in areas isolated 

from cities but also have trouble 

overcoming shyness and a self-deprecating 

sense of humour. 

When asked at an early-November 

Manitoba Beef Producers meeting to 

describe why they are committed to 

farming, producers had trouble 

being positive about their profession. 

“Because I’m not too bright,” joked 

one Manitoba cattle producer. 

“I quit school too early,” quipped 

another, as farmers in the room 

laughed. 

CARMAN, Man. — Bovine tuberculosis 

around Riding Mountain 

National Park hasn’t gone away, but 

However, an effort is underway 

across all sectors of agriculture to 

improve farmers’ public image. 

“We need to talk about what you do 

for the environment,” said Manitoba 

Beef Producers general manager 

Cam Dahl. 

“We need to talk about what you do 

for animal welfare. We need to have a 

much better conversation with the 

public because they don’t know what 

you do. They’re asking these questions 

and I would rather have you 

answer those questions than PETA 

(People for the Ethical Treatment of 

Animals) answer those questions.” 

A few farmers were convinced during 

the meeting’s coffee break to be 

video recorded as they described 

why they farmed and how they felt 

the situation seems to be improving, 

says Manitoba Beef Producers. 

“This has been a very, very slow 

about farming. 

It wasn’t easy for MBP’s Kristen 

Lucyshyn to find farmers willing to 

participate in the project. 

The association is contributing 

videos to the Agriculture More Than 

Ever website at www.agriculturemorethanever.ca, 

which is a collection 

of video clips with farmers and 

others in agriculture talking about 

the positive aspects of farming. 

The project, established by Farm 

Credit Canada, is receiving contributions 

from across the industry. 

Dahl said farmers need to tell their 

stories because urban Canada controls 

the governments that set regulations 

that govern farmers’ lives. 

“We need to communicate better 

with the public,” said Dahl.

long national park, and eradication 

efforts are better co-ordinated. 

Bovine TB has caused anxiety for 

hundreds of cattle producers living 

along the park’s boundary. 

Elk and deer in the park carry the 

disease, but it hasn’t been easy to 

determine which groups are infected 

and how to eliminate them. 

The disease has been described as a 

problem for the entire Canadian cattle 

industry because it could lose the 

U.S. market if an outbreak caused the 

American government to take action. 

Farmers living on the edge of the 

park regularly test their cattle for TB 

exposure and move their livestock 

into high-fenced enclosures in the 

fall and winter. 

Game fences also protect feed 

sources, and many farmers have 

moved their feeding yards away from 

the park in an attempt to minimize 

the chance of elk and deer coming 

into contact with their herds. 

MBP was also pleased when the 

Manitoba government lengthened 

the white-tailed deer hunting season 

around much of the park and 

approved more tags for hunters.

“These changes acknowledge that 

bovine tuberculosis poses a significant 

problem to both wildlife and 

agriculture,” MBP president Ray 

Armbruster said when the expanded

More hunting will reduce wildlife 

populations of possibly-infected 

animals and provide more samples 

for TB testing. The increased testing 

is expected to provide a better picture 

of the extent of the disease.

ORGANIC CONFERENCE | GROWERS DECLINE 

Organic growers declining; demand rebounding 

Recession hits | Opportunities lie in organic soybean products, milk, yogurt and cereal, says trade official 


REGINA BUREAU 

The decline in the number of 

organic farmers, particularly in Saskatchewan, 

worries the Canadian 

Organic Trade Association. 

Executive director Matt Holmes 

told the recent Organic Connections 

conference in Regina that supply is 

already tight, and a smaller number 

of producers won’t help. 

Organic farm numbers declined 

nationally by 4.5 percent from 2009 to 

2010, he said. 

However, Saskatchewan saw a 16 

percent drop, which could hit 30 percent 

once the latest data is known. 

The province is home to about onethird 

of Canada’s organic farmers. 

The decline is happening while 

demand continues to grow. 

Holmes said the recession negatively 

affected the entire food industry, 

but the organic sector, which is 

worth $59 billion globally, saw only a 

slowdown in rate of growth. 

This took pressure off organic suppliers, 

he added. 

Ninety-six percent of the global 

market is in North America and the 

European Union, but Holmes said 

North America hardly shows up on 

the map in terms of production. 

“South America, Australia and 

Europe are far and away supplying a 

lot of that production,” he said. 

Countries that traditionally supply 

organic food are also becoming consumers, 

he added. For example, 

Brazil, India and China are developing 

a middle class that wants organic 

food. 

Canadians rank ninth in terms of 

per capita consumption of organic 

food, while Denmark and the United 

States are the leaders. 

Holmes said there are opportunities 

for Canadian growers and processors 

in areas such as soybean 

products, milk, yogurt and cereals. 

These products top the list of the 

organic items that consumers buy. 

Holmes said he is concerned about 

the lack of quality Canadian data that 

can be used to make policy, production 

and marketing decisions. 

A 2007 study showed $1 billion in 

annual sales, which doubled to $2 

billion by the next year. 

However, a comprehensive study of 

the marketplace has not been conducted 

since 2009. 

COTA estimated the market was 

worth $2.6 billion in 2010, or 2.5 percent 

of total retail food sales. 

The association recently learned it 

would receive funding to conduct the 

first full organic market assessment 

since 2009. It will also include a look 

at who organic consumers are, where 

they live and where they shop. 

“We don’t even know what full production 

is because that changes 

pretty rapidly,” he said. “We’re trying 

to work with the government. We’re 

trying to work with the certifiers.” 

At the conference held Nov. 2-3, 

Holmes said he recently learned that 

Statistics Canada has proposed to no 

longer ask questions about organics 

in its agricultural census. 

“That’s unacceptable,” he said. 

ORGANIC CONFERENCE | PRODUCTION 

Organic system 

needs revamp, 

says experts 

Food production has to become 

more efficient, says permaculture 

advocate Rob Avis. 

“We need a remake of the entire 

system from the bottom,” he told the 

Organic Connections conference in 

Regina. 

Permaculture focuses on a regenerative 

system that weaves together 

all environmental and social aspects 

of food, water, shelter and waste. 

Avis of Verge Permaculture in Calgary 

said this would result in farms 

that provide net positive calories, 

run on solar energy, produce nutrient 

dense food, benefit topsoil, 

increase fertility and diversity, 

improve water quality, decrease 

pollution and provide habitat. 

He said the outputs of one system 

become the inputs of another, which 

is a pattern that nature has already 

perfected. However, the system that 

exists now is what he called an immature 

ecosystem that is low in diversity, 

highly competitive, leaks nutrients 

and focuses on annual plants. 

A mature, highly diversified system 

that uses perennial crops and recirculates 

nutrients is more desirable, 

he said. 

One example is a small three quarter 

acre farm in Kelowna, B.C., that 

supplies vegetables to restaurants 

and takes back the restaurant compost 

for fertilizer. 

Avis said urban centres could be 

producing more food than they are. 

There are 40 million acres of lawn in 

the United States compared to 45 

million acres of wheat. 

That land could produce enough to 

feed every U.S. citizen 2,000 calories 

per day. 

Fred Kirschenmann, a holistic 

resource management advocate, 

said larger-scale farming should also 

focus on developing more perennial 

crops. 

“Nature doesn’t operate on a system 

of annuals,” he said.

ORGANIC CONFERENCE | TILLAGE 


REGINA BUREAU 

Soil shouldn’t be treated like dirt, 

says noted soil health expert Jill Clapperton, 

but that’s exactly what happens 

when it is tilled. 

“You have to remember that soil is a 

habitat,” she told the recent Organics 

Connection conference in Regina. 

“We want those bugs. We have to 

decrease tillage to keep animals in 

the soil.” 

Organic producers have traditionally 

relied on tillage for weed control, 

as did other farmers historically 

before turning to chemicals. 

Clapperton noted an Agriculture 

Canada document from 1944 that 

said soil lost 33 percent of organic 

matter as soon as it’s tilled. 

The underground ecosystem is 

designed to move nutrients up and 

down. She said nematodes and protozoa 

don’t have burrowing capacity 

and rely on the soil structure created 

by other animals and plant root systems 

for transport. 

“We sever those connections when 

we do tillage,” Clapperton said. 

“Everything is connected.” 

However, she said that while many 

farmers recognize tillage isn’t good 

for the ecosystem underground, they 

don’t want to spray either. 

Clapperton advises her clients to 

use a disc drill, seeder or planter to 

cut through the soil without major 

disturbance. She also recommends 

cover crops, underseeded crops and 

living mulches to help feed the soil 

and reduce tillage. 

For example, a farmer in Ontario 

seeded lentils and then seeded corn 

into the growing lentil crop. The lentils 

formed a myccorhizal relationship 

with the corn, pulling phosphorus 

into the plants. 

Clapperton said flax grows especially 

well in organic rotations and 

can be seeded with clover or lentils. 

Underseeding option 

Another option is to underseed 

wheat to sweet clover. The sweet clover 

grows up after the wheat is harvested 

and displays “amazing herbicidal 

properties” as it lies flat, she 

said. 

Clapperton is also working with 

desi chickpeas, in particular underseeding 

wheat to desis. 

“Desis are a more wild type (of 

chickpea) that take up more phosphorus, 

are highly mycorrhizal and 

stay on the ground,” she said. 

She used this system on her family’s 

Montana farm and achieved wheat 

yields of 40 bushels per acre in an

The wheat and chickpeas were offset 

on a 12-inch row spacing. At harvest, 

none of the chickpeas ended up 

in the wheat, and the chickpeas were 

harvested later. 

“We got an excellent wheat yield 

and a really nice yield of chickpeas as 

well.” 

Clapperton said these types of systems 

work well for “recovering conventional 

farmers” who want to do 

right by their soil but aren’t necessarily 

at the point of organic. 

She is also working with subterranean 

clover, which grows only 2.5 

centimetres high, forms a mat and 

outcompetes weeds, and flowers such 

as phacelia, cosmos and calendulas. 

The flowers are particularly useful 

for potato growers because they 

attract pollinators such as bees. Planting 

a row of flowers between every 10 

rows of potatoes can also control virus 

problems. 

“We do this in corn in Kansas and 

Nebraska” to reduce insecticide use, 

Clapperton said at the Nov. 2-3 conference. 

Farmers might not like the look of 

crop mixes, she added, but they will 

find that their water use is more efficient 

and yields will improve. 

“What we can do with plants is outstanding.”

HEALTH & SAFETY | SOCIAL MEDIA 



Part of growing up includes 

acquiring emotional aptitude and 

taking responsibility for how others 

are affected by our actions. 

However, children and youth can 

be cruel to each other while they are 

maturing, as illustrated by the 

events leading up to the recent suicide 

of 15-year-old Amanda Todd 

in British Columbia. 

Public concerns over bullying 

seem to rise and fall in the wake of 

bullying related tragedies reported 

in the media. 

Todd’s suicide has received widespread 

interest largely because of the 

YouTube video she posted, which has 

been viewed millions of times, where 

she used flash cards to describe her 

experience of being bullied. 

The video provides a glimpse of the 

torment some young people face for 

people who are normally insolated 

from such harsh interactions. 

Also, much of the bullying 

occurred online and was easy for 

news agencies to find and report. 

Cyberbullying occurs when the 

internet, including social networking 

sites such as Facebook, is used 

to taunt and harm others. 

Online bullying is usually only 

part of a larger bullying campaign 

that victims face. So in many ways, 

it is an extension of the bullying that 

teachers, parents and police have 

always faced. 

Alex Moore, author of A Parents 

Guide to Cyberstalking and Cyberbullying, 

said bullying can be much 

harder for parents to detect when it 

occurs in the virtual world. 

“It is possible to monitor children’s 

online activity with a variety 

of parental control software and 

apps,” Moore said. “However, the 

products available tend to be costly 

and are not user friendly.” 

It used to be easier to protect children 

from bullying. 

She said youngsters’ time spent 

away from home was always the 

wildcard but once in the safety of 

the home, parents could make sure 

their children were safe from emotional 

abuse and threats of violence 

from their peers. 

However, this is no longer the case 

as the increased reliance on digital 

communications erodes the 

home’s previous safe zone. 

In the past, children’s behaviour 

was at least somewhat monitored in 

most of the places they frequented. 

Moore said digital communications 

are largely unmonitored. 

Handheld computing devices are 

cheap and need only a widely available 

WiFi signal to access free social 

media sites. As well, there are no 

Facebook hall monitors or text 

message referees. 

The ability of teachers and principles 

to monitor and discipline 

students only goes so far in the 

cyber world. 

She said police say they need new 

legislation to help intervene and 

investigate cyberbullying in Canada. 

However, police will not be able to 

intervene or prevent all cyberbullying 

cases regardless of the laws that 

are put in place. Many of them will 

be too subtle and fall within the 

parameters of any reasonable law. 

It is ultimately the parents’ 

responsibility to make sure children 

are safe in cyberspaces. It is 

important for parents to have a 

strong relationship with their children 

and be able to notice when 

something is bothering them. 

Moore said it is impossible to prevent 

all cyberbully attacks, but it is 

vital that children know they 

should speak out about cyberbully-

Cyberbullying can have deadly 

consequences for teens 

Old story, new setting | Social media like Facebook, Twitter can be used to intimidate kids 

ing when they see it happening. 

“Teach your children safety and 

security measures … when it comes 

to interacting in social networks 

and online sites and advise them 

about the dangers of sharing too 

much personal information publicly, 

including photos, texts, 

tweets,” Moore said. 

The community of people within 

most public spheres hold each 

other accountable for their actions. 

It is indeed necessary for any community 

to self-regulate. 

However, young online communities 

struggle to maintain any sort 

of etiquette standard. 

Moore said the internet’s anonymity 

allows some people to get 

away with behaviour they would 

not get away with in most communities, 

and children are often the 

targets of this normally unacceptable 

behaviour. 

Youngsters are increasingly fulfilling 

their needs for social connections 

and affirmations of worth 

through digital mediums such as 

social networking sites. 

However, she said children 

shouldn’t wander the internet unsupervised 

until parents know they 

have the skills to handle themselves.

HELP YOUR KIDS 

DEAL WITH CYBERBULLYING 

Cyberbullying is a conscious, 

deliberate online attack by one 

person or group against another. 

Help your child avoid becoming a 

target of cyberbullying: 

• Teach them to never post anything 

on the internet they wouldn’t 

want the world – including you – 

to read. 

• Talk to them about reaching out at 

the first sign of a threat, but don’t 

take for granted that your child 

will: only eight percent of teens 

who have been bullied online tell 

their parents about it. 

• Stay calm. Kids are reluctant to 

confide in their parents if they fear 

their parents will take away their

ON THE FARM | SEED CLEANING 

Family farm grows, cleans, processes 

Spices, pedigreed seed | Eskdale Seed Farm goes with the flow as markets change and prices rise 



LEROSS, Sask. — The Heggie family 

has found themselves in the land 

reclamation business this fall. 

It was another wet year on the family’s 

Eskdale Seed Farm near Leross. 

With harvest complete and previously 

flooded areas dry, Robert Heggie 

and his two sons, Kyle and Joel, 

are trying to reclaim the 1,400 acres 

they were unable to seed this year on 

their 6,000 acre farm. 

Two European exchange workers 

are helping with the fieldwork and 

drainage. 

Just down the hill from the home 

Heggie shares with his wife, Cres, 

three full-time employees are working 

in another part of the business 

— their seed cleaning plant. 

The plant has three separate cleaning 

lines: two dedicated to cleaning 

coriander and caraway and another 

for cleaning pedigree seed, both 

what is grown on the Heggie farm 

and custom cleaning jobs, including 

organic. 

The plant began operating in 1981 

to clean seed for local farmers. Pulse 

crops for the export market were 

added in the late 1980s and coriander 

and caraway arrived in the early 

1990s. 

The company tooled up for spice 

processing and soon became one of 

the largest spice processors in Saskatchewan. 

A second cleaning line was added 

in 1997 and for a time the plant operated 

24 hours a day to keep up with 

demand. 

Calvin Wingert, who has worked at 

the plant for 20 years and manages 

its operations, said the spice market 

is small but has treated them well. 

That’s how we’ve been able to 

stay as busy as we have been 

over the years. It’s because we 

don’t try to do one thing all 

year long. 

ROBERT HEGGIE 

ESKDALE SEED FARM 

“The industry grew for eight or 

nine years, and then leveled off for 

eight or nine years. It’s in a bit of a dip 

now, but like most commodities it 

will come back,” he said. 

The plant eventually added a 

third cleaning line to allow the farm 

to do value added work on their 

crops without disturbing the spice 

cleaning. 

“The plant has allowed us to diversify 

into the food market, and people 

are always going to need to eat. 

Plus there are always going to be 

farmers who need seed to plant,” 

Heggie said. 

“That’s how we’ve been able to stay 

as busy as we have been over the 

years. It’s because we don’t try to do 

one thing all year long. Then, when 

the doors close, you’ve got nothing 

to do. Traditionally, when one thing 

slows down, something else has 

picked up.” 

The farm grows crops with the 

most profit potential. Lately that has 

been canola, but going all-in to any 

one crop or market in not in their 

business plan. 

Heggie uses three guiding principles 

to manage Eskdale Seed Farm: 

stay diverse, keep an eye out for 

emerging or potential markets and 

be willing to attempt new ventures. 

Manager Calvin Wingert and owner Rob Heggie say Eskdale Seed Farm 

is always looking for new markets and business ventures. 

He has recently reduced the 

amount of acres seeded in spices 

because of low prices. The crops also 

have problems with disease during 

wet years. 

However, the Heggies are in a position 

to quickly respond to rising 

spice prices by increasing spice 

acres and return the plant to operating 

24 hours a day. 

“Anything that can be processed 

and marketed out of the cleaner, 

where another company comes 

here and picks it up, is usually more 

profitable for us,” Heggie said. 

This includes the pedigree seed 

the farm grows, such as wheat, barley, 

oats, flax, peas, and fall rye. 

As their spice acres decreased, 

the number of acres planted to 

oats for the gluten free marketed has 

increased. 

There are stringent requirements 

for growing gluten free oats. For 

instance, a load will be rejected if 

one gluten-containing grain kernel 

is found in a one-kilogram sample. 

Crop rotations are crucial when 

growing pedigree seed and gluten 

free oats. 

No other cereal grains are allowed 

in the rotation when growing oats 

for the gluten free market. Heggie 

said growing spices in the oat rotation 

helps maintain the integrity of 

the crop. 

Careful field management and 

equipment cleanouts allow the farm 

meet the gluten-free oat standards, 

but the cleaning plant also helps. 

“We probably gross more per acre 

growing all these other things, 

which we prefer, than canola, and 

there is a lot less risk (in terms of 

input costs), but you need things to 

rotate them with like peas or canola.” 

Heggie said he and Cres are 

thrilled that Kyle and Joel have been 

able to stay in the area to help expand 

the farm together. 

“I do what I love to do, and I get to 

do it with my family,” he said. 

SLEEP HABITS | INTERNAL CLOCK 

Sleep habits 

of elderly 

HEALTH CLINIC 

CLARE ROWSON, MD 

I am a 60-year-old male and 

Q: as I get older, I seem to want to 

go to bed earlier and get up earlier, 

even though I don’t have to. I also 

have to get up in the middle of the 

night to urinate, so I never get more 

than three or four hours sleep at a 

time. Is this normal for my age? Will 

this eventually affect my overall 

health? 

Older people generally need 

A: the same amount of sleep as 

younger adults, seven or eight hours, 

although children and teenagers 

may need 10 hours a night or more. 

It is quite normal to break your 

sleep up into two three or four hour 

segments, even if you do not need to 

urinate. Sometimes it takes up to an 

hour to get back to sleep again, but 

this does not matter and will not 

affect your overall health. 

We all have internal clocks that 

regulate our circadian rhythms. The 

problem is that due to electric lights, 

we now stay up long past our natural 

bed times. In the olden days, people 

slept when it got dark and got up in 

daylight. 

In the 1990s, sleep researcher Dr. 

Thomas Wehr, a psychiatrist at the 

National Institute of Mental Health 

in the United States, discovered that 

everyone sleeps in two segments 

when subjected to natural patterns 

of light and dark. 

He subjected the participants to 14 

hours of darkness per night and 

found that they gradually shifted to a 

routine of taking two hours to fall 

asleep, then sleeping in two fourhour 

phases separated by about an 

hour of staying awake. 

Most people are now so tired and 

sleep deprived that they fall asleep 

almost immediately and sleep 

straight through the night, so that 

they worry that anything different is 

not normal. 

Real insomnia does seem to get 

more common with increasing age. 

Older people tend to be less physically 

active, and are more likely to 

take an afternoon nap. Naps should 

preferably not last longer than 20 

minutes to half an hour. 

Painful conditions such as arthritis 

can interfere with sleep. Older men 

often develop problems with benign 

enlargement of the prostate gland, 

which causes more frequent urination, 

and women in the menopause 

can be awakened by hot flashes. 

Depression and anxiety are also 

more common in older people and 

can interfere with sleeping. 

Seniors are also more likely to take 

prescription medications, some of 

which may cause insomnia. 

Some examples are bronchodilators, 

which help breathing, steroids, 

certain antidepressants and thyroid 

medication.

ENTREPRENEURS | FARM SALVAGE 

FARM LIVING 


Furniture makers turn salvaged wood into fine furniture 

BY ANNE COTE 

FREELANCE WRITER 

Four furniture makers from Manitoba 

like to think of themselves as 

being in the tree salvaging business. 

Wood Anchor, which builds furniture 

and produces elm flooring, is the 

result of a collaboration between 

farmers Grant and Colleen Dyck and 

their high school friends, Jason and 

Jami Neufeld. 

The business is located on leased 

land on the outskirts of Winnipeg, 

but in its early days a steel shed on the 

Dyck farm was the company’s workshop 

and headquarters. 

The original plan was to build furniture 

from reclaimed wood found in 

rural Manitoba. Old grain elevators, 

sheds, barns and other types of farm 

buildings provided a vast resource 

for the fledgling company. 

Grant Dyck had many ideas about 

how to use the wood, while Jason 

Neufeld had the woodworking skills 

to create the furniture. 

“Our whole approach is that we’re 

salvaging the trees rather than harvesting 

trees,” Neufeld said. 

The partners used equipment from 

the Dyck farm to move salvaged 

wood from its original site to the 

workshop. 

Neufeld said the intention was to 

just cut “a little bit of elm” when Wood 

Anchor began to look in 2007-08 at 

reclaiming trees that had succumbed 

Life on the farm will never be the 

same for Helen Choquette and family. The 

Western Producer and Dow AgroSciences 

are thrilled to announce Choquette’s 

PIN number was drawn for the 

Keys to the Combine Contest 

at Red Deer’s AgriTrade on 

November 8, 2012— 

giving her full ownership 

of a 2012 New 

Holland CR9090 combine, 

valued at $331,000. 

In 15 months almost 

50,000 keys were unlocked 

in the Keys to the Combine contest, 

but it was one of the keys 

earned by Helen Choquette, who 

farms 20 miles north of Kelvington, 

Saskatchewan with her husband and 

kids, which was the winner. 

“When I started the contest I just 

had a feeling I was going to win,” says 

Choquette. “The morning of the 

draw I even joked to my husband and kids I was going to 

win the combine later that day. We really need it and are 

thrilled to officially retire our New Holland TX66 that we 

bought used five years ago.” Choquette’s son, Mitchel, 

says he’s looking forward to “less wrenching and more

to Dutch elm disease to use for furniture 

and flooring. 

However, that’s when the environmental 

market was starting to develop, 

and reclaimed wood products 

became a good business idea. 

Most of the wood for the company’s 

flooring comes from elm trees in 

Winnipeg that died from the fungal 

disease, which was spread by beetles 

that burrow into the bark of trees. 

Only licensed arborists under contract 

to the city are allowed to cut the 

diseased elms and dispose of them. 

The dead trees are deposited at a 

Manitoba landfill, where the bark is 

stripped away. The tree trunks are 

taken to Wood Anchor once they have 

dried well enough to be safe to use. 

Neufeld said the company uses 

almost 5,000 tonnes of elms annually. 

It also uses almost 3,000 tonnes of 

oak, ash and poplar. The oak and ash 

trees usually come from rural Manitoba 

farms, he added. 

Neufeld said unwanted shelter belt 

trees are usually best suited for fuel, 

either as pellets and logs. 

“Old farmyards are a different story 

because there’s often really big trees

NEXERA CANOLA GROWER

threshing” in 2013. 

The new 2012 New Holland 

CR9090 is the combine of their 

dreams. They are longtime Yorkton 

New Holland customers and they 

are also Nexera canola growers. In 

2011 they had what Choquette 

describes as a “beautiful 

Nexera canola crop 

averaging 52 bushels 

an acre”. If, weather 

permitting, 2013 is a 

repeat they now 

have the necessary 

combine capacity. 

“We are thrilled for 

Helen and her family. They 

are hard working with an 

incredible commitment to 

the canola industry,” says Mark 

Woloshyn, Nexera Brand Leader 

for Dow AgroSciences. “Not only 

do they grow Nexera canola, they 

also run a trucking company that delivers to Nexera canola 

channel partners Richardson Pioneer, LDM and Bunge. And it’s 

the end-use demand that has given everyone in the Nexera 

canola value chain, from growers to processors, “healthier 

profits” and that’s why we are able to give away a combine!”

there,” he said. “There might be only 

10 of them, but they’ll be huge.” 

Urban sources include riverbanks 

and residential spaces where trees 

have outgrown their environment. 

It’s these trees, rural and urban, that 

provide the material for the custom built 

furniture that Neufeld and the Wood 

Anchor crew produce in the shop. 

Equipment includes a portable 

sawmill and two drying kilns that the 

company plans to buy later this year 

to dry flooring. The kilns will cost 

$40,000 each. 

Neufeld and an office manager 

handle sales and day to day functions, 

while four employees either 

operate the sawmill or work in the 

shop building furniture. 

“They all have basic woodworking 

skills,” Neufeld said. “They’re a creative 

group and they manage to figure 

out new ways to make the wood fit the 

customers’ requests. We’re dealing 

with some pretty wild material.” 

For example, wood stacked in the 

shop include black streaks and cracks 

where nails used to be, knots and 

23 

other abnormalities. 

He said it’s these imperfections that 

customers want preserved in their 

custom made furniture, which 

means the people building it have to 

take a different approach to wood 

crafting and finishing. 

A table on the workbench in the 

shop is one example. It’s more than 

two metres long and close to a metre 

wide and is crafted from local Manitoba 

oak. The Wood Anchor crew 

won’t fill the knotholes or sanding 

out the discolorations before applying 

a food safe finish concocted from 

vegetable oil and plant wax. 

“That’s the character of the piece. 

That’s what people want,” Neufeld said. 

The price of this particular table, 

which is destined for a home in Calgary, 

will be $4,000 to $5,000 when it’s 

finished. Neufeld said customers 

provide him with a basic idea of what 

they want and plenty of freedom to 

create a unique piece. 

He said it usually takes 10 to 12 

weeks for a custom made table to be 

finished.

JODIE MIROSOVSKY, BSHEc 

We enter a new season as 

soon as the snowflakes tap 

at the window. 

With this white blanket comes a 

quiet and peaceful atmosphere. After 

fall yard work kept us busy, we now 

have permission to curl up with a 

good book without feeling too guilty. 

And aside from the job of moving 

snow off sidewalks and driveways, 

there is a sense of serene excitement, 

if that is possible. 

I love watching the kids enjoy the 

first snowfall: running in the glittering 

flakes as they fall, building a 

snowman or being pulled on a sleigh. 

It is also the time to prepare for the 

coming holidays. I always anticipate 

the food and fun that holiday gatherings 

bring. 

Although the season can get busy, 

remember to take time to stop and 

enjoy some great food. 

CABBAGE AND RICE CASSEROLE 

This casserole is a form of “lazy 

cabbage rolls.” It’s delicious and easy. 

1 lb. extra lean ground 500 g 

beef 

1 medium onion, chopped 

to taste salt, pepper and 

garlic powder 

1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce 5 mL 

1 10 oz tin tomato soup 284 mL 

1 c. water 250 mL 

3 tbsp. uncooked rice 45 mL 

3 c. shredded cabbage 750 mL 

1 c. grated cheddar 250 mL 

cheese 

Preheat oven to 325 F (160 C). 

Saskatoon berry squares are as pretty as they are tasty. | JODIE MIROSOVSKY

Brown the ground beef in a skillet. 

Add the onion, salt, pepper, garlic 

powder and Worcestershire sauce. 

Rinse the rice under hot running 

water. Stir in the tomato soup, water 

and rice into the beef mixture. Grease 

a two quart (2.5 L) casserole. Line with 

half the shredded cabbage. Pour meat 

mixture over the cabbage. Add the 

remaining cabbage. Cover and bake 

1 1/4 hours. Add the shredded cheese 

during the last 15 minutes of cooking. 

Serves four. 

POPPY SEED DRESSING 

I always like a crisp salad as a side 

with a large meal. 

1/4 c. peach or apricot 60 mL 

nectar/jam 

2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice 30 mL 

(or grapefruit) 

2 tbsp. white sugar 30 mL 

1/2 tsp. salt 2 mL 

1/2 tsp. dry mustard 2 mL 

2 tbsp. grated onion 30 mL 

1 tbsp. poppy seed 15 mL 

1/4 c. vegetable oil 60 mL 

garnish with sliced almonds 

Combine all ingredients except 

oil and almonds in food processor or 

blender. Whirl until blended. Slowly 

add the oil while blending. 

When ready to serve, garnish greens 

of your choice with sliced almonds and 

toss with dressing or serve dressing on 

the side. 

DILL CREAM SAUCE 

This sauce is a must with fresh new 

potatoes, but I like it over roast potatoes 

all year long. 

3 tbsp. butter 45 mL 

1/2 c. onion, finely 125 mL 

chopped 

3 tbsp. flour 45 mL 

1 1/4 c. milk 310 mL 

1/4 c. dill, finely chopped 60 mL 

1/3 c. cream 75 mL 

to taste salt and pepper 

Farmers love this. 

Prairie wheat growers are turning to midge tolerant wheat 

for midge control and high yields. And everyone wants this 

to continue. 

Fry the onion in butter until clear. 

Remove from heat and stir in the flour. 

Whisk in the milk. Return to the heat 

and bring to a boil. Add the chopped 

dill and cook slowly, stirring steadily. 

Stir in cream slowly. Season with salt 

and pepper. Serve over potatoes or 

with baked fish or chicken. 

As a variation to plain dill sauce, try 

these creamed mushrooms with dill. 

4 c. fresh mushrooms 1000 L 

1 onion, chopped 

2-3 garlic cloves (minced) 

1/4 c. butter or margarine 60 mL 

2 tbsp. all-purpose flour 30 mL 

1 10 oz. tin cream of 284 mL 

mushroom soup 

2 tsp. chopped dill 10 mL 

(fresh or frozen) 

1 c. cream 250 mL 

(whipping or coffee) 

salt and pepper to taste 

Clean and boil fresh mushrooms (in 

salted water for 10 to 15 minutes). Drain 

and set aside. Saute onion in butter or 

margarine with garlic and dill. Add flour 

to make a sauce or roux. Slowly pour 

cream into mixture. Whisk until smooth. 

Cook on low heat to thicken. Add mushrooms 

and the soup. Season to taste. 

Note: canned mushrooms can be 

used in place of fresh if desired. Pour 

on potatoes. 

SASKATOON BERRY SQUARES 

This square look amazing served on 

a plate with its rich purple filling. 

Base: 

1 c. butter, at room 250 mL 

temperature 

1 c. white sugar 250 mL 

1 egg 

2 1/2 c. all-purpose flour 625 mL 

3/4 tsp. salt (optional) 3 mL 

2 tsp. baking powder 10 mL 

Filling: 

5 c. saskatoons or blueberries, 

fresh or frozen 1250 mL 

2 tbsp. lemon rind 30 mL 

juice of one lemon 

That’s the point of the Stewardship Agreement. The Agreement 

limits the use of farm-saved seed to one generation past Certified 

seed. It’s a simple step that keeps the interspersed refuge system 

at the desired level, preventing a build-up of resistant midge. 

Protect your yields and grade, and preserve this important tool 

for years to come. What’s not to love about that? 

Contact your retailer or visit www.midgetolerantwheat.ca 

to learn more about these new varieties and how the 

interspersed refuge system works. 

2/3 c. brown sugar 150 mL 

1/3 c. granulated sugar 75 mL 

1/4 c. cornstarch 60 mL 

1 tbsp. butter 15 mL 

Preheat oven to 350 mL (180 C). 

Base: In a mixing bowl, beat 

the butter and sugar until light and 

creamy. Add the egg and continue 

beating until well combined. In another 

bowl, mix the flour, baking powder 

and salt. 

Stir into butter mixture with a spoon 

until crumbs form. Press two-thirds of 

crumb mixture into an ungreased nine 

by 13 inch (22 X 33 cm) pan. 

Filling: Wash the saskatoon berries, 

drain and set aside in a medium bowl. 

Grate the lemon rind and remove the 

juice. Place in a saucepan. Add the 

brown sugar, white sugar and cornstarch. 

Cook and whisk until the mixture 

thickens (eight to 10 minutes). 

Add the butter and stir. 

Add the cooked mixture to the saskatoon 

berries. Spread the mixture 

onto the prepared base. 

Top with the remaining one-third 

of crumbs. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. 

Makes 24 squares. 

Tasty reading 

Recipes in this column are all from 

the cookbook, From Baba with Love. 

Cecilia Kachkowski, president of 

the Hanka Romnachych branch of 

the Ukrainian Women’s Association 

of Canada in Saskatoon, introduced 

me to this Ukrainian cookbook that 

was compiled by the Saskatoon 

branch. 

I fondly remember my husband’s 

baba and dido and how proud they 

were of their heritage and their success 

in coming to Canada. Sharing a 

meal, and a shot of vodka or homemade 

liquor, was a must to celebrate 

many life events. 

This publication is much more than 

a cookbook, featuring teachings of 

the spiritual seasons of life, including 

cultural and folkloric descriptions of 

selected feast days and sacraments 

and Ukrainian food traditions. 

Recipes vary from traditional to 

modern versions for those like myself 

who like quick and easy dishes. It is a 

great resource to preserve Ukrainian 

history in Canada and wonderful as a 

gift this Christmas. 

It is priced at $35 per copy and is 

available at McNally Robinson, 

SaskMade Marketplace and the 

Ukrainian Museum of Canada in 

Saskatoon. 

Another great gift idea is Cooking 

with Cherries ... From the Prairies. It is 

another project that Kachkowski was 

involved with, along with Loretta 

Bors and Lily Sawatzky. 

Together they compiled and edited 

a cookbook using prairie developed 

sour cherries in every recipe. Proceeds 

will fund a scholarship for a 

student studying horticulture at the 

University of Saskatchewan. 

For more information, visit www. 

fruit.usask.ca or pick up the book at 

the U of S bookstore, MacNally Robinson,

I took my husband’s name 

Q: when I got married and blended 

mine and his into a hyphenated 

name. After the birth of our fi rst child 

we created a will. Years later, I am 

still married to the same person, but 

I have dropped his name and added 

two more children. Do I need to get 

my will changed? 

You have raised three issues 

A: that I will address. 

Change of name 

You note that you had originally 

used a hyphenated name, which was 

a combination of your husband’s 

name and yours. Sometime later in 

the marriage, you reverted to just 

your own surname, which I presume 

is your birth name. 

Under The Change of Name Act in 

Saskatchewan, you would be able to 

revert back to your birth name without 

being required to file a formal 

application to do so. 

With regard to your will, the change 

from the hyphenated name to your 

birth name would not make your will 

invalid. 

It is quite clear who the writer of the 

will is and any confusion could be 

eliminated by the filing of an affidavit 

of identity at the time of your death, 

in which someone who knew you

would simply indicate that the name 

used in the will was one and the same 

person as the name you were using at

to her, and we are still on good 

terms with each other. But it cannot 

stop there. What can I do to keep 

myself out of those gossip lines? 

You have already started. Tak- 

A: ing responsibility for your part 

in the gossip session and apologizing 

to your neighbour was tremendously 

courageous. I do not know 

many people who would be that 

honourable. 

Th ankfully, she was forgiving, and 

that says something commendable 

about her as well. 

Obviously, you know the harm to 

personal relationships that can 

sprout out of community gossip. 

However, like you, people often get 

caught up in gossip sessions. 

The lure of gossip comes to us from 

two directions. 

The first is simple: “we want to 

belong.” People, like a herd of cattle 

grazing in the fields, are social creatures. 

We do not only want to belong 

to groups in our communities; we 

need to belong. 

Survival is difficult without the support 

and nurturing care of our friends 

and families. People gossip to belong 

to groups and friends in the community. 

The irony is that the most likely 

way to lose contact with others is to 

be forefront in the gossip sessions. 

Those who are gossiping about 

other people could just as easily be 

talking about you, and when they do 

they are isolating you from the community. 

Gossip victims are generally left to 

their own resources, lacking support 

from others in the community. 

The other drive toward gossip is 

from personal dissatisfaction. 

Chances are that you are gossiping 

when something in your life needs 

fixing. The most common drive to 

gossip comes from a few doubts 

about your own self worth. 

So strong is this connection that 

you could almost use it as a barometer 

for yourself. The next time you are 

tempted to gossip, find yourself a 

clean bathroom mirror and check in 

with that person looking back at you. 

Chances are that you will see someone 

who needs to be encouraged. 

It is a signal that you need to find 

more positive supports in your life to 

usually draft a will for young parents 

who are of an age where their family 

may expand in the future. If yours is 

like that, it should be fine. 

However, if your will named specifically 

only the child you had at the 

time and not a general class of your 

children, you should definitely 

change your will to include your laterborn 

children. 

Years later 

You have indicated that it has been 

a long time since you last made a will. 

Many people ask how many years 

should go by before they make a 

change to their will. It is not the number 

of years that go by but the change 

in circumstances. 

Changes to your beneficiaries or 

changes to your assets are the main 

indicators that a change to a will is 

improve your self-image. 

Group pressure is of course strong 

and persuasive. When your coffee 

sessions start to degrade other people, 

excuse yourself and find that 

bathroom mirror. 

Then commend the person looking 

25 

necessary. In this case, the most 

important reason why you may need 

to update your will is to be sure that 

all of your children are named as 

beneficiaries, or that this is covered 

by referring to them as a group. 

While you are making that change, 

make sure to review your guardian 

clause, which is the person or persons 

who would be looking after your 

children if both you and your husband 

were to die, and update that 

clause if necessary. 

And while you are making these 

changes, you can update your name 

as well.

ANIMAL WELFARE | HOGS 

New hog codes of practice will come with price 

Minimum standards set | The code will cost hog producers as they retrofit barns from stalls to group housing 



Revised codes of practice for hog 

production are expected to be 

released by the end of next year. 

The scientific report has been made 

public, and the committee’s draft will 

be completed by the end of the year 

and ready for public consultation 

and feedback by early next year. 

Most items will take effect a year 

after the codes are released. 

“One of the more important things 

is we’re establishing a minimum 

standard that is going to form the 

basis for all set evaluations of our 

operations in Canada,” Dr. Harold 

Gonyou, an animal scientist with the 

Prairie Swine Centre in Saskatoon, 

told the Swine Industry Symposium 

in Saskatoon Nov. 13-14. 

“So if a problem comes up, we have 

something to go back and say, ‘this is 

our standard, does it meet it or 

doesn’t it meet it.’ ”

team who was also chosen to represent

Nearly 5,000 people have signed 

petitions asking Ottawa to review its 

decision to cut programs at the 

Motherwell Homestead national 

historic site in Saskatchewan. 

The site near Abernethy is the 

home of the country’s first agriculture 

minister and features demonstrations

tee, said the existing 15-year-old 

code of practice didn’t have mandatory 

standards. 

The Canada Pork Council asked 

that the code be revised so that it 

could be used as a basis for standards 

for its animal care assessment program. 

Gonyou said scientific input for the 

codes of practice included discussions 

with many stakeholders. 

“We’re achieving that standard by 

which we live by,” he said. 

The scientific committee studied 

six welfare issues: controlling pain 

regarding castration, methods of 

practiced in W.R. Motherwell’s time. 

Costumed interpreters used cattle, 

horses, poultry and other livestock, 

as well as early implements, to show 

people how things used to be done.

announcements earlier this year. As 

of 2013, the site will operate as a static

Gonyou said sow housing is of 

greatest interest to producers and 

consumers. 

Studies show it is possible to 

achieve equal or better productivity 

and health in group systems compared 

to stalls. Sows housed in stalls 

rested less and sat and drank more 

than sows in groups. 

Tethered sows show lower productivity 

and higher levels of stress than 

those in stalls. 

stead Inc., said that isn’t good 

enough to honour an agricultural 

figure of such importance. 

“We feel it’s very important to try to 

preserve his memory in a way that’s 

fitting,” she said. 

She said the Friends group has 

been told the site will be self-guided 

and open only three days per week 

during late May and June. However, 

those three days will be during the 

week and not weekends. 

Gonyou said the revised code would 

include caveats on group housing. 

“We still want to use the stall during 

that first trimester because we feel 

with our current understanding of 

management, the sows will be challenged 

if we don’t,” he said. 

“Then we’ll move to group housing 

during the last two trimesters of pregnancy.” 

Gonyou said the new codes will 

bring major financial hurdles, particularly 

during a housing conversion. 

“It’s going to cost somewhere between 

$250 and $500 per sow to make 

that transition on our farms because 

we have to renovate those buildings,” 

he said. 

“It’s a new design, a new management 

method. They have been developed, 

but our barns have not been 

built for them.” 

Florian Possberg, chair of the 

National Farm Animal Care Council’s 

pig code development committee, 

said finding the right combination of 

caring for animals and still being competitive 

in the marketplace requires a 

“That’s not much fun for families,” 

Stephenson observed. 

The site will be open full-time from 

July to mid-September. 

Children’s day camps at the site 

were over-subscribed but will no 

longer be offered and any school 

tours that visit the site will be left to 

wander on their own. 

The cuts also mean that seven seasonal

reduced to five summer positions. 

sensitive balancing act. 

“On one hand, we want to have an 

animal welfare position that allows 

us to access as many markets as possible 

and yet we cannot put so many 

conditions on our production that 

we are non-competitive,” he said. 

“There may be premium markets 

out there that will pay a premium for 

very high animal welfare, but quite 

frankly most consumers buy on price 

in Canada. Globally, if you don’t 

match the best price, you’re not in the 

market.” 

Bigger ticket items, such as retrofitting 

barns for sow space, will require 

a phase-in period and innovation 

money so that producers can make 

the appropriate changes. 

Possberg said the council has asked 

to delay the process long enough so 

that market conditions can improve. 

“At the end of the day, we don’t want 

to push our producers out of business. 

We want to make sure we do this

TORONTO — Not everybody gets 

excited about a 50 pound block of 

frozen butter, but for sculptors it 

offers endless opportunities to have 

fun and create art. 

The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair 

invites sculptors and art college students 

to compete in an annual butter 

sculpture competition. This year, 

Bailey Henderson of the Ontario College 

of Art and Design in Toronto 

won with a whimsical rendering of a 

pig on a scooter. 

“Artistic merit is what we are really 

working for,” said judge Ineset 

Dzenis, who works in the film 

industry. 

The three judges gathered in the 

cold room where the finished works 

are on display and deliberated about 

creations that included a life sized 

goose spreading it swings, a wolf eyeing 

food, a calf encircling a baby and 

a chicken sitting on a mountain of 

eggs. 

Judges Olenka Kleban and Katy 

Berggren are fulltime artists and have 

previously entered this show and one 

at the Canadian National Exhibition 

with large renderings of Toronto 

mayor Rob Ford, an aging Elvis Presley 

and Wayne Gretzky. 

At the Royal, artists start with a 50 lb. 

block of butter and work in a cold 

room. It takes about eight hours to 

complete. 

The sculptures are eventually 

thrown away because they cannot be 

eaten after being manipulated and 

handled. 

Artists use carving tools and their 

hands. Butter is less forgiving than 

clay or other sculpting medium. The 

work can be built on a frame if necessary. 

“It is not quite as easy as clay. It can 

be brittle. To get it to a malleable state 

takes a lot of work,” said Berggren. 

One of her past entries included a 

Scot in his kilt, which she called Butterscotch. 

Her busts of Gretzky and 

Presley for the CNE each took 100 lb. 

of butter to complete over several 

days. 

Kleban has produced animal projects, 

including nursing piglets, which 

she called a Pile of Litter, two cows 

nestling and a grandmother making 

perogies. That project required 500 

lb. of butter.

BSE SURVEILLANCE | TESTING CHANGES 

BSE test changes designed to increase submissions 

New age limit | The industry benefits from BSE testing by increasing confidence in the beef sector, says veterinarian 

BY BARB GLEN 

LETHBRIDGE BUREAU 

Changes to Alberta’s BSE surveillance 

program are designed to 

encourage producers to provide a 

larger number of samples. 

Starting Nov. 1, cattle owners can 

now submit any animal older than 30 

months for BSE testing if it is dead, 

down, diseased or distressed or if its 

showing neurological signs of illness. 

An upper age limit of 107 months had 

previously been in effect in Alberta. 

A restriction on time of ownership 

has also been removed. Producers 

DISEASE | CONTROL 

Producers must 

take diseases 

by the horns 

BY ED WHITE 


Livestock producers should take 

responsibility for controlling contagious 

disease outbreaks, says a leading 

Alberta disease control specialist. 

Nobody has as much at stake as 

producers, and nobody is likely to 

care as much about doing it right. 

“It’s time to stop saying it’s a federal 

problem, or it’s a provincial problem,” 

Jeff Hill, a veterinarian and livestock 

welfare specialist with Alberta Agriculture, 

told the Canadian Swine 

Health Forum in Winnipeg. 

“Ultimately, it’s your problem.” 

Disease outbreaks can cause costly 

time delays as federal, provincial, 

regional and industry players argue 

over who is responsible for controlling 

live animal diseases. 

That can cause dangerous delays in 

taking action and allow disease outbreaks 

to become more severe, Hill 

said. The number of animals infected 

can be reduced by 80 percent if outbreaks 

are aggressively engaged 

within 72 hours, he added. 

Hill said the ever-present threat of 

foot-and-mouth disease means livestock 

industries need to prepare for 

mass euthanization of animals, but 

they aren’t doing so. 

However, the hog industry has 

begun working on a national plan to 

control a mass outbreak using 

“humane destruction centres” in 

Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and 

Alberta and co-ordination of local, 

regional, industry, provincial and 

federal organizations and resources. 

Hill, who has been organizing the 

plan for the Canadian Swine Health 

Board, said an existing plan can be 

rapidly enacted if a crisis erupts, 

which is greatly preferable to squabbling 

over responsibility and losing 

crucial hours for early response. 

“When something like H1N1 

comes down, the (Canadian Food 

Inspection Agency) goes, ‘it’s a provincial 

issue,’ the province goes, ‘It’s 

an industry issue.’ None of us have a 

legislative mandate to take responsibility.” 

However, Hill said livestock industries 

can’t afford to play that game 

because only they go out of business 

if things go bad. 

can now submit animals in any of the 

above noted high risk categories 

regardless of how long they’ve owned 

the animals. The previous restriction 

was 30 days of possession. 

The $75 per animal reimbursement 

to producers for submitting an animal 

is still in effect. 

Dr. Gerald Hauer, chief provincial 

veterinarian in Alberta, said the 

changes were made to increase the 

number of animals submitted. 

“We recognized that the numbers 

of samples coming into our program 

are reduced from what they were 

before,” he said. 

The other goal was to make Alberta’s 

program more consistent with 

those elsewhere in Canada. 

Changes to the term of ownership 

requirements were made in light of 

better market prices for cull cows. 

“The main reason for that was, for 

animal welfare reasons, we felt that it 

was not prudent to have a system that 

would allow farmers to go around 

collecting up the older cows, cows 

that are unfit for transportation and 

things like that, collect them up and 

put them into the BSE program,” said 

Hauer. 

That happened in the early days of 

the BSE surveillance program but is 

less common now, he added. 

“Market conditions are different 

now. We don’t feel there’s as much 

potential for animal welfare issues 

around that, so we felt it was time to 

take that one out.” 

Hauer said Alberta would ideally 

like to test 10,000 animals per year for 

BSE. That target was not met last year. 

The national goal is to test 30,000 

animals. 

In 2005, two years after BSE was 

discovered in Canada, 57,000 samples 

were tested across the country. 

That dropped to 48,000 by 2008.

Tests as of Sept. 30, 2012, totalled 

19,943, which was down substantially 

from January to September of 2011, 

when 27,429 samples were collected. 

Hauer said a group formed to 

address BSE testing is preparing a 

campaign to encourage producers to 

increase the number of animals they 

submit. Rural veterinarians are also 

asked to encourage more tests. 

“The ultimate beneficiary of the 

BSE surveillance is the cattle industry. 

What it does is it maintains the 

confidence in beef products both 

domestically and internationally,” 

Hauer said.

CANOLA | DISEASE 

BY BARB GLEN 


There were several reasons for disappointing 

canola yields across 

Western Canada this year, and 

sclerotinia was one of them. 

The fungal disease, which thrives in 

hot and moist conditions, robbed 

farmers of 10 percent of their yield in 

Alberta and Saskatchewan and five 

percent in Manitoba. 

Clint Jurke, an agronomy specialist 

with the Canola Council of 

Canada, said the rule of thumb for 

yield loss due to sclerotinia is to 

halve the incidence. 

That means 20 percent of Alberta 

and Saskatchewan crops and 10 percent 

of Manitoba crops suffered from 

the disease this year. 

“Sclerotinia was very big, particularly 

through central and northwest 

Saskatchewan. It was probably the 

number one yield robber in that 

area,” said Jurke. 

“Sclerotinia is the one disease that is 

almost entirely controlled by the 

weather pattern that you have. Crop 

rotation, previous crop history, things 

like that don’t really matter very much 

with this disease. It’s all about how 

NEWS 

much moisture you’ve had, particularly 

around that flowering period.” 

Randy Kutcher, former oilseed specialist 

with Agriculture Canada, recommended 

using the canola council 

checklist to determine whether fungicide 

spraying is worthwhile. The 

list includes assessments of recent 

weather, forecast, crop canopy and 

yield potential. 

Scouting at first flower and then 

using a petal test kit will also give 

guidance on spraying, but Kutcher 

said few producers use the kits. 

“Even if you don’t think you have 

much inoculum in your field, you can

still get spores coming in from adjacent 

fields,” said Kutcher, who now 

focuses on cereal and flax pathology at 

the University of Saskatchewan. 

“The more growers deal with the 

disease, the better feel they get for it 

and the years that it’s going to be a 

problem.” 

Sclerotinia is tricky. 

Spraying is unlikely to be effective 

in preserving yield by the time it is 

visible in the crop. Prevention is the 

main weapon in farmers’ arsenal. 

Kutcher said his best recommendation 

is to scout at swathing time to 

gather information on potential load

in the soil. The data can be useful the 

following year if weather conditions 

favour the disease. 

“Get off the swather, three or four or 

five places in a quarter section, and 

figure out how much sclerotinia 

(you) have. It’s a pretty easy disease 

to recognize.” 

Alberta Agriculture oilseed specialist 

Murray Hartman said some 

canola varieties are tolerant to sclerotinia 

but they work best when disease 

pressure is low. Even then, fungicide 

spraying will likely be required 

if conditions favour the disease. 

“I would say there hasn’t been a 

high uptake on those varieties,” said 

Hartman. 

Abundant sclerotinia in one crop 

year is not a guide to conditions in the 

following year because of the disease’s 

weather dependence. 

However, Hartman said the disease’s 

apothecia bodies can remain 

in the soil for three or four years and 

cause problems when conditions are 

right. 

That’s why crop rotation is not a 

huge factor in control, agreed Jurke. 

Sclerotinia is not particular about its 

host. 

“Any dicot plant is a host for this 

disease, so it doesn’t matter if you’re 

growing canola or you’re growing 

peas or you’re growing lentils or 

you’re growing even alfalfa or Canada 

thistle. They all will produce 

sclerotia.” 

The bright side is that there are 

many effective fungicides. 

Sclerotinia has developed resistance 

to benomyl, the most popular 

fungicide used in the 1990s, so that is 

a warning to producers to vary products 

and modes of action.

Special Crops Association explore 

health and nutrition claims for pulses 

and open new opportunities to 

increase exports. 

Substantiating the health benefits 

of pulses could lead to their increased 

use as new ingredients in processed 

food and open opportunities for 

other profitable uses. 

In addition, Pulse Canada and the 

Canadian Special Crops Association 

will receive $195,000 through the 

AgriMarketing Program to help 

promote Canadian pulses and 

special crops at international trade 

missions and trade shows and help 

build an international media tour of 

the Canadian pulse industry. 

CANOLA GROWER WINS 

COMBINE 

Helen Choquette of Kelvington,

BRITISH COLUMBIA | LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR 

BY SHANNON MONEO 


VICTORIA —British Columbia’s 

29th lieutenant governor is the second 

woman to accept the role, but 

she’s the first female rancher to hold 

court since the position was formalized 

in 1871. 

Judith Guichon, who with her late 

husband, Lawrence, owned the 

Gerard Guichon Ranch in the Nicola 

Valley, north of Merritt, has taken up 

residence at Government House for 

a five-year-term as the Queen’s representative 

in B.C. 

She has swapped 15,000 acres of 

deeded and 65,000 acres of crown 

lands, the 700 head cow-calf and 700 

yearling operation and bed and 

breakfast business for the 36 acre 

property with elaborate gardens, a 

three-storey manor featuring a 300 

seat ballroom and full staff. 

“This is a big change from the 

ranch,” said Guichon, 65, who took 

up her post Nov. 2, replacing Steven 

Point, a former judge and First 

Nations leader. 

In early November, she hosted a 

large dinner at Government House 

honouring long-service provincial 

government employees and earlier 

that week was in Vancouver for an 

emergency services event, just two of 

the roughly 300 functions she will 

attend each year. 

Guichon wasn’t sure why she was 

picked but she is aware that her 

appointment was supported by federal 

and provincial politicians from 

various parties. 

When prime minister Stephen 

Harper’s office called her in September 

to ask if she wanted to be B.C.’s 

new lieutenant governor, she at first 

thought it was a joke. Now, as she 

settles into the position, Guichon 

plans to take the job seriously. 

“I hope I can help raise the level of 

awareness of what agriculture does 

for the country and how important it 

is,” she said in an interview at Government 

House. 

That’s crucial for Guichon because 

Canada needs to ensure it has the next 

generation of farmers. Her family is 

doing fine, with her son, Michael, and 

daughter, Allison, and their families 

running the ranch. Guichon has two 

other grown children. 

Lawrence’s descendants came from 

France to the Cariboo goldfields in 

1862 and arrived in the Nicola Valley 

in 1866. 

Having her children, the fifth 

generation, take over is part of the 

succession-retirement plan for 

Guichon and her second husband 

Bruno Mailloux, an invasive plant 

specialist. 

Guichon said it is crucial that people, 

particularly in urban areas, 

learn about the value of agriculture 

and that it needs to be sustained. 

When it come to farming and ranching, 

distinct knowledge about individual 

pieces of land isn’t something 

that can be read in a book, she 

added. It is learned by seeing and 

doing. 

“Every piece of property is so 

unique,” Guichon said. 

A steward of the land, Guichon said 

urbanites, in particular young people 

more interested in consumerism 

and gaming, must learn that farmers 

and ranchers provide more than 

food and are more than peasants. 

Clean air, clean water, new topsoil, 

species habitat and carbon sequestration 

are important things that 

come from farms and ranches, she 

said. 

Guichon was born in Montreal and 

raised on a farm near Hawkesbury, 

Ont. She moved to B.C. in 1972. She 

and Lawrence introduced holistic 

land management practices to B.C. 

ranchers. The third female president 

of the B.C. Cattlemen’s Association, 

Guichon finished her twoyear 

term in May 2012. 

“Judy is an outstanding and dedi-

said Kevin Boon, BCCA general 

manager. 

In addition to championing agriculture, 

Guichon intends to continue 

the work of her predecessor, promoting 

literacy and aboriginal reconciliation. 

Guichon has served as a director for 

the Fraser Basin Council of B.C., 

director of the Grasslands Conservation

threatened burrowing owls to 

the ranch in 1992. One owl, born at 

the ranch in 2002, recently turned up 

in southern California, she said. 

“The project’s doing very well.” 

There will definitely be one reminder 

that Government House is inhabited 

by a rancher who happens to 

have a chef with a cattle background.

FOREIGN OWNERSHIP | XL FOODS 

Industry official welcomes JBS takeover of XL 

Foreign ownership not always bad | JBS has a good track record overseas and will open new markets, says Ted Haney 

BY BARB GLEN 


The potential purchase of XL Foods 

assets by international meat giant 

JBS USA raises no concerns about 

foreign ownership for the former 

head of the Canadian Beef Export 

Federation. 

Ted Haney said there were no other 

suitors for the federal Lakeside plant 

in Brooks, Alta., and other XL assets 

after Canada’s largest beef recall and 

temporary closure of the country’s 

second largest cattle slaughtering 

plant. 

Haney, who is now president of the 

consulting firm Ranch 4 International, 

told a Nov. 1 meeting of the 

Southern Alberta Council of Public

Affairs that foreign ownership 

shouldn’t be a concern. 

He said Canadians work to attract 

foreign investment to develop various

the second one.” 

Haney said many in the industry 

were surprised when Nilsson Bros. 

bought the Brooks plant from U.S.based 

Tyson three years ago. 

JBS was thought to be a suitor at the 

time, he added, but didn’t see it as 

offering market access beyond what 

it already had through its earlier 

acquisition of Swifts. 

However, many markets have 

reopened to Canadian beef in recent 

years, and access to China in particular 

favours Canada. 

“I think what we’ve seen today is 

that, at the right price and with a 

recovery in market access, JBS has 

decided that this company is worth a 

very close look indeed.” 

He said JBS paid less for the Brooks 

plant and accompanying assets than 

what Nilsson Bros. paid Tyson, so 

price was obviously another factor. 

However, he said JBS is also a keen 

competitor to Cargill, which operates 

the largest federal beef processing 

plant in Canada at High River, 

Alta. 

“They’re not going to give Cargill a 

day’s rest in competing for cattle. 

They are going to compete hard with 

all the best suppliers, and that’s just 

good news for us.” 

Haney said JBS’s record of meat 

plants on several continents has 

proven its social contract to operate, 

while XL Foods’ lack of communication 

during the recall harmed its 

reputation. 

“There appeared to me to be a distinct 

lack of transparency, of accountability, 

of humility, of apology and in 

fact it called into question, I believe, 

quite quickly that ownership’s social 

contract to continue operations.” 

Export markets closed to beef from 

XL after the recall, and Haney said the 

slow pace of reopening those markets, 

now that the plant is operating under 

new management, is troubling. 

He said the delay might be due to 

other countries’ relationships with 

the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, 

which haven’t always been amicable. 

“The speed at which foreign regulators 

resume trade in beef from the 

Lakeside plant is in part a measurement 

of the confidence they have in 

the CFIA properly overseeing safe 

food production in the plant, and it is 

a measure of the quality of relationship 

between them so that they want 

to co-operate and act quickly,” said 

Haney. 

“I have no doubt that there’s a regulator 

or two around the world that 

sees this a little bit as their opportunity 

to balance the tables.”

KELOWNA, B.C. — Jean Farina 

knows who to call when she needs 

fruit picked from her backyard trees 

— the Fruit Tree Project. 

Farina and husband, Luigi, moved 

to West Kelowna from Langley, B.C., 

five years ago and had searched for a 

gleaning group to take her excess 

fruit and vegetables. 

“I have been trying to promote this 

forever,” said Farina, who gives away 

a lot of the produce from her backyard 

garden, where she and Luigi 

grow a copious amount of fruit and 

vegetables on their half-acre lot overlooking 

Okanagan Lake. 

“They were polite, prepared and 

worked as a team,” she said. 

“They cleaned up after themselves 

and any leaves or branches that 

needed picking up they put in our 

green bin. Any fruit beyond saving 

was emptied into our compost. They 

did everything.” 

The Fruit Tree Project, a child of the 

Central Okanagan Food Policy 

Council, was formed this year to turn 

fruit from thousands of trees into a 

source of food for the community by 

harvesting otherwise wasted fruit. 

“In May, we went public and asked 

tree owners to register their trees 

with us,” said Casey Hamilton, cochair 

of the food policy council. 

“No one knew who we were, so we 

used Facebook for most of our campaigning. 

We had our first pick in 

July. We had about 10 volunteers and 

we showed up at this man’s house. 

We descended on the cherry tree and 

had it picked in an hour.” 

The group gave 30 pounds to the 

Salvation Army and 50 lb. to the food 

bank. The Salvation Army, food bank 

and Gospel Mission also received 

fruit when it picked an apple orchard. 

“Most of it had been picked, but 

there were quite a few apples left and 

the owner and family came out and 

helped,” said Laura Hsu, Fruit Tree 

Project co-ordinator. 

“The owner was totally passionate 

about sharing with people who are 

less fortunate. It was neat to see him 

passing on these values of caring for 

the community to his children.” 

Bill and Ursula Ulrich were two of 

the volunteers who helped pick 

almost 5,000 pounds of fruit in 31 

endeavours. They also used their van 

to deliver the fruit. 

“We went out to one orchard and 

there were more cherries than they 

could do anything with,” said Bill 

Ulrich. “And the last one we went to,

It’s quite evident that if fruit isn’t 

gathered, it just goes to waste. There’s 

a strong need for food banks to have 

good fruit like that.” 

Rob Weller, operations manager for 

the Kelowna food bank, said the 

organization appreciates the fresh 

fruit because it is such a staple of a 

healthy diet. 

“We’re not only feeding people but 

trying to get them the most nutritious 

food possible. And this year, we 

received the largest volume of fruit 

we have ever received.” 

NOW (New Opportunities for 

Women) Canada also appreciated 

the donated fruit. 

“Fresh produce isn’t something 

you can afford to buy when you’re on 

a low income,” said Liz Talbott, executive 

director for NOW, which runs a 

20-bed emergency shelter, three 

transition houses and 60 apartment 

units. 

“The ladies in the apartments 

weren’t just eating them fresh, but 

were making things with it. We had 

pies everywhere.” 

It was also nice to have the fruit 

delivered. 

“That was so fantastic,” Talbott said. 

“It was such a delight, the icing on 

the cake, with a smile and a chat.”

highlighting the history and present successes of the college. 

One of the favourite events at the Farm and Home Week was the livestock 

show held in the Livestock Pavilion on campus. 

Farm and Home Week 

The University of Saskatchewan, in co-operation with a 

number of farm organizations, established Farm Week, as 

it was called during the fi rst decade, to provide a forum for 

discussion of developments in agriculture and related fi elds. 

One of the main objectives of the program was to give 

farmers, their families, and staff of the College of Agriculture 

the opportunity to meet on campus to discuss matters of 

common interest relating to the agricultural industry. Over 

the years the program broadened to include many agencies 

and institutions, with several organizations holding their 

annual business meetings on campus during Farm and 

Home Week. 

By 1981 over 60,000 persons had participated in Farm 

and Home since the week-long program began in 1933. 

Convocation Hall, College Building was the main venueorganization 

business meetings were held in the morning 

and lectures of interest to all took place in the afternoon. 

‘Charter’ members of Farm Week included Saskatchewan 

Agricultural Societies, the Field Husbandry Association, and 

the Seed Growers Association. A seed fair and a parade 

of fi ne animals in the livestock pavilion were highlights for 

many years. 

In 1948 the name was expanded to “ Farm and Home 

Week” and that name continued for the life of the 

program. Organizations came and went but two very 

signifi cant entries were the Rapeseed (now Canola) Grower’s 

Association of Saskatchewan in 1972 and the Pulse Grower’s 

Association of Saskatchewan in 1978. 

The Farm and Home Week program was moved to 

February and 1992 was the last time the program was held 

as a university event. Since then organizations have formed 

“ Crop Week” and the January tradition of meetings and 

lectures is now bigger than ever.

RECYCLING | FARM WASTE 



Saskatchewan farmers may soon 

be able to dispose of their plastic 

waste in more environmentally sustainable 

ways. 

A pilot program for farm waste now 

underway is scheduled to end April 

2014. 

It is one of several pilot programs 

on the Prairies that will study how to 

best collect, recycle and reuse plastic 

waste used on farms. 

“It’s a waste of resources and really 

it’s a waste of jobs because people 

can recycle and reuse these materials,” 

said Barry Friesen, general manager 

of CleanFarms, a non-profit 

industry stewardship organization. 

“That’s what CleanFarms is all 

about. To take these materials that in 

the past had no home and to provide 

new uses for them.” 

The organization operates a 

national empty pesticide and fertilizer 

container collection program 

and an obsolete pesticide collection 

campaign. 

A recent study found that farmers 

in British Columbia dispose of 5,500 

tonnes of packaging waste a year. As 

well, 32,000 tonnes of packaging 

used to transport farm products to 

retail stores and households leaves 

B.C. farms annually. 

“The study shows there are a lot of 

different types of waste on farms, like 

plastic and cardboard, that needs 

programs that will allow farmers to 

recycle those products,” said Friesen. 

“We know through our existing 

programs that farmers are willing to 

participate in stewardship schemes. 

Now we have the information we 

need to develop new programs to 

benefit farmers and the environment.” 

Like the B.C. study, Friesen said the 

first step in other provinces is to find 

out how much waste is on farms and 

how best to collect and recycle it. 

Leading the list of waste on the 

Prairies are the plastic field bags that 

farmers use to store their grain, bale 

wrap that producers use to cover 

their hay, twine and netting. 

Friesen said it is difficult to determine 

the amount of plastic waste 

until studies are completed or updated. 

This is particularly the case with 

grain bags, which are a relatively new 

technology. 

“Less than 10 years of usage and as 

farms change their equipment and 

get bigger, we’re going to see an 

increase in plastic being used.” 

The Saskatchewan environment 

ministry is funding a grain bag and 

twine recycling pilot program in 

Moose Jaw. 

CleanFarms has been asked to 

work with the manufacturers of these 

products to see if a stewardship program 

is possible similar to the successful 

collection of pesticide containers. 

Friesen gives high marks to farmers 

for this particular success. 

“A very high percentage of them 

want to do the right thing. We collect 

66 percent of all pesticide containers 

and it’s a voluntary program in 

almost every province. I think that’s a 

testament to the fact that they’ll do 

the right thing if given the tools to do 

the job.” 

He predicted that governments will 

eventually force manufacturers to 

consider recycling, particularly with

“In many provinces now, managing 

the end of life of a product is the 

manufacturer’s responsibility,” he 

said. “He will be looking to manufacturers

these things in the most cost effective

COMMUNITY | RURAL CULTURE 

General store 

delivers the goods 

for 65 years 

Community hub | Pick up mail or gas up

doughnut at the Crooked Creek General Store 

BY RANDY VANDERVEEN 


CROOKED CREEK, Alta. — The 

general store has been the heart of 

rural communities across the West 

for generations. 

They have served as the local 

grocer, hardware store, post office, 

coffee shop and all-purpose gathering 

place for thousands of Canadians. 

But in recent years, they have fallen 

out of popular rural culture and few 

remain standing today. 

But in Crooked Creek, the general 

store continues to serve as the hub of 

the community. 

The Crooked Creek General Store, 

which was taken over by new owners 

Louis and Ethel Eidse and Linda 

Thiessen in April, provides services 

many urban residents access at several 

different locations. 

It is fitting that the Eidses took over 

the store with its historic link to the 

community because their grandparents 

were among the first group of 

four people to settle in the area in the 

late 1920s. They claimed their homestead 

in 1928 and moved to the area 

in 1929. 

“My mother is the only one still 

alive of the original group of people 

who came here,” Louis says as he 

sorts the day’s mail. 

The store, which was built in 1947, 

serves as the post office, fueling station, 

corner store, bakery and coffee 

shop for the communities of Crooked 

Creek and Ridge Valley located 

between Grande Prairie and Valleyview. 

While the post office, fuel, and grocery 

store have been part of the store 

since it was first built, the fresh 

baked goods have provided a new 

option, attracting locals and workers 

in the area, as well as passersby, 

who stop for fresh doughnuts baked 

daily. 

The change in ownership and 

the store’s services are not the 

only changes in the store’s 65 year 

history. 

The store was moved north in 1956 

to its present location after the highway 

was relocated.

WORLD IN BRIEF 

RESEARCH 

Pig genome map may 

help fight disease 

LONDON, U.K. (Reuters) — 

Scientists have mapped the genome 

of the domestic pig in a project that 

could enhance the animal’s use for 

meat production and the testing of 

drugs for human disease. 

A study published in science 

journal Nature identified genes 

that could be linked with illnesses 

suffered by farmed pigs, providing a 

reference tool for selective breeding 

to increase their resistance to 

disease. 

“This new analysis helps us 

understand the genetic mechanisms 

that enable high quality pork 

production, feed efficiency and 

resistance to disease,” said Sonny 

Ramaswany, director of the United 

States Department of Agriculture’s 

National Institute of Food and 

Agriculture. 

EU BUDGET 

EU aims to soothe 

Britain 

BRUSSELS, Belgium (Reuters) — 

European Union chief Herman Van 

Rompuy tabled a compromise draft 

EU budget, aiming to mollify Britain, 

which wants spending cuts, but 

risking angering France by reducing 

farm subsidies. 

Britain has threatened to veto the 

seven-year budget, saying the EU 

should limit spending. Germany, 

Sweden and the Netherlands have 

demanded similar restraint. 

Van Rompuy’s draft would 

reduce the roughly one trillion euro 

proposed budget for 2014-20 by 

about 80 billion euros. 

The proposal also safeguards a 

budget rebate paid to Britain each 

year to compensate for the relatively 

small amount of agricultural 

subsidies it receives, a payment 

many other countries resent but 

recognize would be politically 

difficult to withdraw. 

Under the proposal, all EU 

countries would share the cost.

deadlocked $500 billion bill may 

not be enacted for months, or even 

a year. 

Vilsack, who is expected to stay 

in his position for at least the start 

of president Barack Obama’s 

second term, said the agriculture 

department “would do everything 

we can” to implement a new farm 

bill in time for the 2013 harvest next 

fall. 

With deficit reduction at the 

top of the agenda for lawmakers, 

Vilsack said “reform becomes a very 

MANITOBA 

important component” for the farm 

bill, already six weeks overdue. 

Months ago Obama suggested 

$33 billion in agricultural cuts, and 

analysts say the best chance to pass 

a farm bill this year would be to use 

its budget cuts as part of an overall 

plan to reduce the federal deficit. 

But they see little chance of a 

budget pact and say the farm bill is a 

minor issue for lawmakers to spend 

time on, compared to looming 

automatic budget cuts and tax 

increases. 

AGFINANCE 

Australian company 

rejects ADM offer 

SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) — 

Australia’s GrainCorp rejected a 

$2.8 billion US takeover offer 

from Archer Daniel Midland Co. 

Nov. 15, saying the bid undervalued 

the grains handler after a bumper 

harvest delivered a record annual 

net profit. 

ADM’s bid comes at a time of 

dramatic consolidation in the 

global grains sector amid intense 

competition to feed fast-developing 

countries seeking food security. 

GrainCorp is the last available 

independent large asset in Australia, 

which is an attractive market due 

to a stable policy regime and good 

links to Asia, leading to speculation 

of a counterbid. 

The Australian grains handler, 

which sources say is pressing for an 

offer up to 15 to 20 percent higher 

from ADM, highlighted a 19 percent 

boost in profits and lifted its longterm 

earnings forecasts.

KIEV, Ukraine (Reuters) — 

Ukraine may start its first shipments 

of corn to China by the end of this 

year under an agreement that will 

allow it to pay back a $3 billion loan 

to the Asian giant. 

Ukrainian agricultural minister 

Mykola Prysyazhnyuk said the way 

was clear for shipments to start after 

the two sides reached agreement 

on sanitary and other quality 

requirements for supplies of the 

commodity. 

“Shipments of Ukrainian (corn) 

will be made in accordance with 

inter-government agreements and 

by private companies as well,” 

Prysyazhnyuk was quoted as saying 

by his ministry. 

The outline agreement should

Awards recognize best in 

agricultural innovation 

BY MICHAEL RAINE 


This year’s 50 top innovations in agricultural 

engineering have been 

awarded, including a larger than usual 

number of products that could potentially 

be used in Western Canada. 

Each year, a panel of agricultural 

engineers from the American Society 

of Agricultural and Biological Engineers 

chooses what it feels are the 

most innovative products to reach 

the international marketplace. The 

association’s Resource Magazine 

sponsors the awards. 

The best of these will be chosen for 

further recognition at the ASABE 

technology conference held in conjunction 

with Ag Connect Expo in 

Kansas City this winter. 

The Western Producer will feature 

several of the top 50 innovations in 

the upcoming weeks. Visit bit.ly/

winners. 

As well, The Western Producer will 

cover the top finalists from the ASA- 

BE annual conference next year. 

One of the winners was Versatile’s 

new ML Series precision air drill. 

The new hoe drill relies on an independent 

shank with parallel linkage but 

doesn’t use hydraulic pressure to 

ensure continuous ground following for 

precision seed and fertilizer placement. 

Springs and frame pressure establish 

seed furrow profile and trip force.

The air drill automatically adjusts 

packing pressure to maintain the 

specified seed placement and furrow 

profile regardless of furrow type 

selected, soil conditions or terrain. 

John Deere has made new automation 

available that is coupled with its 

harvest telematics to allow combine 

operators to assume control of a 

Deere tractor pulling a grain cart. 

Once the combine has control, it 

can synchronize speed and lateral 

position of the cart and tractor while 

unloading on the go. 

Machine Sync also provides logistics 

information such as tank filling 

status for multiple combines on the 

company’s GreenStar 3, 2630 Display. 

Tractor and cart operators can decide 

which combine will need unloading 

first based on the screen information. 

The KSi Model 2114 high‐capacity 

conveyor with drive‐over swing‐ 

away can handle pulse crops or any 

product that benefits from a light 

touch during elevation. 

The drive-over belt is 30 inches wide 

while the loader belt is 21 inches. The 

loader can push 10,000 bushels per 

hour inside its 14-inch tube. The unit 

uses dual drives to lift grain and oilseeds 

up to a 36 degree angle while maintaining 

even tension across the belt width. 

The drive‐over section folds beside 

the main conveyor during transport 

and is hydraulically shifted into position 

for loading or trailing. It is available 

in 85, 100 and 115 foot lengths.

The New Holland 840CD rigid 

draper header for small grain is 

available in 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45-foot 

widths and uses the company’s Syncroknife 

drive. 

It has an integrated transport system 

and its hydraulics are isolated 

between functions, which allows for 

independent adjustment of knife 

speeds and draper controls. 

Cab controlled cut angles from four 

degrees forward to three to the rear 

assist in crop flow on the 83 inch wide 

in-feed belts. 

Vermeer’s new BPX9000 bale processor 

is a high capacity bale feeder 

for beef cattle producers. Its cut control 

system produces quality feed 

while its self cleaning rotor keeps net 

and twine from tying up the drum. 

An optional square bale kit allows 

round and square bales to be processed. 

A T-shaped frame unit relies 

on a slat and chain bed and offset 

rotor, keeping maintenance to a 

minimum. 

A pivoting spout allows the Casein 

Axial Flow 230 combines to aim grain 

unloading within the truck or cart. 

A computer system learns and 

retains the location that is being used, 

but it can be instantly directed to 

another position for differing boxes. 

The stream can be diverted up to two 

feet without loss of unload capacity. 

When disengaged, the unit becomes 

a grain saver by pivoting up to stop the 

dribble of grain from the auger.

Corn planter effective in precision canola seeding 

Vacuum planter used 

| Manitoba field trial 

showed wide row 

spacing viable in canola 

BY RON LYSENG 


A corn planter places canola seed 

more accurately than does an air 

drill, according to producers who 

have tried it. 

“The accurate seed placement of a 

planter is the big factor. That’s what 

makes this whole idea potentially 

viable,” says Andrew Dalgarno, a 

canola grower from Newdale, Man. 

“There was a lot of talk last winter 

about guys sowing canola with a corn 

planter. They were cutting way back 

on their seeding rate and still getting 

an acceptable stand, so we decided 

to try it this year.” 

Dalgarno, a partner in Pen-Dale 

Farms Ltd., conducted trials comparing 

a John Deere 7300 vacuum 

planter on 22 inch spacings to a 

Bourgault 5710 and a Seed Hawk. 

He also conducted six trials on soybeans 

and grain corn. 

Dalgarno compiles a Post-Harvest 

Report every fall that he sends to 

those who toured his plots during the 

summer or expressed interest in his 

trials. The following information is

The field was too wet to seed in 

2011 so it ended up as chemfallow. 

In late summer, a Salford RTS was 

used to dry out the soil, chop the 

weeds and provide light tillage. 

He noticed during the fall anhydrous 

ammonia application and the 

spring pre-seed burn off and seeding 

that the RTS had left the field smooth 

with an almost ideal seedbed. 

Anhydrous ammonia was applied 

in the fall at 57 pounds of nitrogen per 

acre, while a phosphorus, potassium 

and nitrogen blend of fertilizer was 

banded in the spring before seeding. 

Soil test results indicated a blend of 

36 lb. per acre of phosphorus, 19 lb. 

per acre of potassium and 22 lb. per 

acre of sulfur. This also produced an 

additional 27 lb per acre of nitrogen. 

A pre-seed burnoff of Cleanstart 

was used because Roundup Ready 

canola had previously been planted 

on the field. 

The Bourgault and Seed Hawk plots 

were seeded May 17 and the John 

Wider seeding spaces, up to 18 inches, and lighter seeding rates didn’t 

have a large negative impact on the planter seeding plots near Lacombe, 

Alta. Extra wide spacing of 24 inches seemed to reduce yields and failed

Wide row spacing 

a challenge in canola 

Seeding with corn planter | Seed treatment plugs holes 

BY RON LYSENG 


Producers who have tried seeding 

canola on wide row spacings are cautiously 

optimistic and taking steps to 

solve the problems that have 

occurred. 

Some growers have used their air 

drills, but most have opted for a corn 

planter from Deere, Case, Kinze or 

Monosem. 

However, the problem is the same 

no matter which planter they use: 

seed treatment flakes off the seed 

and plugs the tiny holes in the metering 

disc. 

However, there are solutions to the 

plugging problem, said Jesse Beach, 

precision farming specialist with 

Future Ag, the Case IH dealer in Red 

Deer. 

“One of our customers developed a 

blow-out system that uses compressed 

air to keep the holes clean,” 

said Beach. 

Beach said the only option for 

cleaning the holes was a star wheel 

from John Deere until the pneumatic 

system was installed on a Case planter 

last year. 

Deere vacuum planter plots were 

planted May 21. Soil temperatures 

were 18 to 20 C. Target depth for all 

plots was three-quarters of an inch. 

Speed was four m.p.h. 

Emergence on the Seed Hawk plots 

was excellent. 

Dalgarno said the Seed Hawk at 

three to four lb. seed per acre seemed 

to be similar in timing to the Bourgault 

at five lb. per acre. 

The Seed Hawk plots with the 

lighter seeding rates required more 

“The star wheel would ride over the 

holes as the disc spun. The little fingers 

would poke through the holes 

and keep them clean as the disc went 

around,” Beach said. 

“That’s what farmers have been 

using to keep the holes open. The 

problem is that the star wheel is plastic 

so they broke. 

“A farmer I was working with came 

up with the idea of blowing air 

through the disc periodically. You get 

to the end of the row, hit the switch to 

give the discs a blast of air and the 

holes stay open.” 

Beach said most planters have 

compressed air, so it’s not a big deal 

to run the pressure lines to the metering 

discs. There’s a spot on the disc 

that’s open to the atmosphere, he 

added, and the air blows through 

that hole. 

Any loose seed treatment in the 

chamber is blown out the hole. 

Beach said he knows of only one 

planter that has a blow-out system to 

keep the holes open. 

Future Ag orders blank discs from 

Case and gets them drilled at a 

machine shop in Red Deer. 

Beach said the grower he was work- 

time to branch out to fill in the space 

in the field before flowering began. 

The John Deere planter plots 

seemed to be slightly behind the 

other plots throughout the growing 

season. 

However, he said this might be 

because of the four day delay in 

planting and the fact that the rest of 

the plots received six millimetres of 

rain May 19. 

The swather operator reported that 

the Seed Hawk plots at five and six lb.

ing with did all the research and 

development work himself on the 

blow-out system. 

“He did a lot of experimenting and 

testing in the field before he got it the 

way he wanted. He went through four 

or five sets of discs before he was able 

to find the number that works. He 

ended up with 140 holes. 

“At that number, the disc isn’t spin- 

per acre swathed easier. The plants 

were well knitted together and stood 

up well. The low rates of two and 

three lb. per acre were harder to 

swath. 

Extreme winds Sept. 11-12 blew 

the swaths quite a bit. Delgarno said 

this was the first time he had ever 

seen a canola swath hanging off a 

power line. 

However, he was still able to get a 

reasonable set of results. 

A generally downward progression 


ning really fast. The seeds are spaced 

far enough apart that the singulator 

can get rid of the doubles.” 

Beach said Future Ag outfitted two 

planters with canola discs last year 

and now has blank discs on order to 

do three more sets for next spring.

where the highest seeding rate produced 

the highest yield. 

Delgarno expected to see better

technology, in which disc and packer 

work against one another. 

“The disc is connected on a walking 

axle to packing wheel,” Henry said. 

“It pivots in the middle, so if the front 

disc wants to ride out of the ground 

the back packer will force it back in.” 

The walking axle allowed Morris to 

reduce the cutting angle the discs need 

to penetrate the soil. As a result, Henry 

said, there is less smearing on the disc 

and the furrow is easier to close. 

To apply pressure on the opener, 

Morris uses a hydraulic down pressure 

system. 

“There is a cylinder on every one of 

the disc openers. We use an accumulator 

in the system. So once you put 

the unit into the ground with your 

tractor, you can release your remote 

and then oil is exchanged through 

the accumulator as it goes over the 

contours of the ground.” 

To improve seed placement accuracy 

the easily adjustable gauge 

wheels are on the discs where seed 

placement takes place. 

The gauge wheel has spokes, allowing 

mud to flow through in wet conditions 

preventing build up, which 

can stop the disc, Henry said. 

To reduce seed bounce, the seed 

table is backward swept to the disc so 

it drops seed in the same direction of 

travel. 

Last summer, Morris fielded four 

prototype drills: one 40 foot drill in 

Kazakhstan and one in East Australia, 

as well as a 40 and 60 foot 

You can really pile on the 

acres with that machine. I was 

impressed. There is no real 

downside to it. You can seed

drill in Canada. 

Robert Misko farms near Bield, 

Man., and he seeded about 3,500 

acres into wheat, canola and corn 

with the 60 foot prototype last spring. 

The seeder allowed Misko to seed at 

about 7.5 m.p.h., and seed up to 60 

acres per hour. 

“You can really pile on the acres 

with that machine,” Misko said. 

“I was impressed. There is no real 

downside to it. You can seed fast, field 

finish is very smooth and seed placement 

is much more accurate than a 

shank.” 

There is no shortage of stones or 

awkward fields in the Bield hills, but 

Misko said the drill performed well in 

challenging conditions. 

“They don’t actually apply that 

much force in the ground. The disc 

can come out quickly and go up and 

over when it hits a stone,” Misko said. 

“It goes through the stony stuff and 

up and down trough the hills and 

dips and stays consistent. You will 

probably do more in an hour than an 

85 foot drill with shanks. A 60 foot 

drill is a big machine, but it’s much 

better then an 85 foot or 90 foot drill 

when you’re trying to get into difficult 

places.” 

Misko said independent openers 

that have the gauge wheel two or 

three feet behind the opener will 

never be as accurate in terms of 

depth control as drills like this model 

that have the gauge wheel right 

beside the coulter. 

“When you hit a lump the shank 

goes right through it before the tire 

can pick it up. Then when the gauge 

wheel does hit the lump, it picks the 

shank up two feet past where it needed 

to be brought up,” Misko said. 

“This machine has a gauge wheel 

right beside the disc, so wherever 

you set it at, that’s where it sits at.” 

Morris is selling 10 units around the 

world this spring, and plan on being 

in full commercial production by the 

spring of 2014. It will be producing 

40, 50 and 60-foot models, which will 

be offered with 7.5, 10 and 15 inch 

row spacing. 

“We think the machine is ready to 

go, but we want to put a manageable 

number of them out there in case 

there is something we haven’t seen 

yet, so we will be able to react to it in a 

small way and make the changes 

necessary,” Henry said.

CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — Average 

farmland prices in the U.S. Plains 

states jumped as much as 25 percent

However, the rate of gains slowed 

down from the torrid pace of the past 

two years, the Kansas City Fed’s quarterly

upswing in the number of farms for 

sale after harvest,” according to the

Subjects sought 

for weight study 

High fibre pea cookies will 

be fed to study the effects 



Three cookies a day could make the 

pounds melt away. 

The University of Calgary is seeking 

60 people between the ages of 18 and 

70 who are overweight or obese to 

participate in a study in which they 

eat three high fibre cookies a day. 

The study begins in January and 

ends in April. 

The cookies will resemble a dry 

biscuit and contain 15 grams of fibre 

from dry, yellow peas. The recipe is 

being formulated and tested for palatability 

at the Food Processing 

Development Centre in Leduc, Alta. 

“We decided to test one pea ingredient 

at a time,” said Raylene Reimer, 

a researcher and dietician with the U 

of C’s faculty of kinesiology. 

“In animal models, we have tests 

with pea flour and the fibre, and they 

both have good properties.” 

Food guides recommend eating 

about half a cup of pulses per day, but 

few people do. 

“We know there are lots of good 

health properties in legumes, so if 

people eat the whole legumes, we 

can see benefits for blood cholesterol, 

with weight management, with 

controlling blood sugar,” she said. 

The university contacted pulse 

grower organizations to obtain supplies 

of peas, but the commissions 

are not funding the study. 

The study asks participants to eat 

three cookies per day and fill out food 

records. They must come to the university 

once a month to be weighed 

and to have their blood tested to 

assess cholesterol, insulin, glucose 

and inflammatory markers. They 

also receive a body fat scan and bone 

mineral density test. 

Half the group will receive the high 

fibre cookie and the rest will receive a 

low or no fibre product for comparison. 

Men should eat 38 grams of fibre 

per day and women need 25 grams. 

The average Canadian eats 13 grams. 

Peas contain a mixture of soluble 

and insoluble fibre.

The survey, along with reports 

from the Chicago and St Louis Fed

The Kansas City Fed district 

stretches across the major wheat,

“Lenders continued to lower average 

interest rates on both farm real 

estate and farm operating loans to 

attract borrowers in an extremely

competitive lending environment,” 

the bank said. 

It said the drought hurt farm 

incomes in the July-September quarter 

as escalating feed and fuel prices 

pushed production costs higher and 

boosted demand for farm loans. 

Sky-rocketing land values have 

stirred banker fears about the possibility 

of a ruinous farmland bubble , 

such as the one seen in the 1980s U.S.

farmers lost their land as interest 

rates jumped.

FARMFAIR | CHAMPIONS 

Angus breeders take supreme 

honours for second year 

Farmfair vital to marketing, say winners | Quality, not quantity, is focus of breeding program 

STORIES BY MARY MACARTHUR 


EDMONTON — Lee and Dawn 

Wilson are modest in their answers, 

but the couple from Bashaw, Alta., 

must be doing something right after 

winning supreme champion bull, 

supreme champion female and 

supreme breeders herd at Farmfair 

for the second year in a row. 

“It is a consensus of opinion. 

Every single animal in the ring is a 

champion, so it could go to any one 

of them. We are fortunate to be 

named supreme, but there are so 

many really extremely good cattle 

in our industry. I guess we’re lucky,” 

Dawn said moments after six judges 

named their Red Angus bull, 

Black Angus female and breeders 

herd best of the 12 breeds in the 

show ring. 

“I am just speechless, it is just 

amazing, absolutely amazing,” said 

Dawn, whose family won another 

two trucks to go along with the pair 

won last year, bringing their total to 

five trucks won in recent years. 

Building a herd of winning cattle 

isn’t an overnight success, said 

Dawn, who began showing and 

building a cattle herd more than 40 

years ago and continued with her 

husband when they were married 

24 years ago. 

“We focus on females in our herd, 

but when we get the bulls along the 

way we are thrilled,” said Dawn, 

whose family runs the Miller Wilson 

farm. 

“It’s been a lot of years breeding. 

You can’t take away from the rest of 

the breed champions.” 

The couple continually searches 

for cattle that will fit in with their 

breeding program. 

“There is all kind of good cattle in 

Canada and the world, and it’s a 

matter of going out there and seeing 

what is out there that fits in with 

your herd,” she said. 

“We focus on sound structural 

cattle, feet and muscle, the same as 

everyone else. We are always on the 

search for something new.” 

The couple runs 120 cows on their 

central Alberta farm, focusing on 

genetics, embryo and semen sales. 

“We don’t have a really large herd, 

but we try and focus on a good quality 

animal.” 

Wilson said her family spends 

hours working with the cattle, both 

at home and at shows throughout 

the year. Their next trip is to Canadian 

Western Agribition in Regina. 

“We are very, very lucky to have 

three kids involved and nieces and 

nephews that are tremendously 

helpful to us,” she said. 

“There are good cattlemen within 

our family, but a lot of good cattlemen 

within this industry we look to 

for guidance and direction as well.” 

Wilson said they don’t always get 

the breeding right. What looks good 

originally doesn’t turn out to be the 

showstopper they’re looking for. 

“Often we’re right, but sometimes 

we’re wrong, but that’s the fun of 

breeding cattle. You’re trying to mix 

parts and come up with the best 

piece you can make and that really 

is where our passion lies is in 

breeding.” 

Lee said it’s those years of trial 

and error that have built their cattle 

herd. 

“We change our mind daily and 

they come and go,” said Lee, after 

the judges slapped the back of his 

Red Angus bull declaring it the 

supreme champion. 

Shows like Farmfair play a vital 

role in their marketing strategy, 

helping to show off their herd to 

people from overseas and across 

Alberta. Winning supreme champion 

is just one more way of 

encouraging prospective buyers to 

visit their farm, he said. 

“It’s always great advertising, but 

it allows us to advertise internationally 

and adds credibility to our 

program. If people aren’t at the 

show, people can look at the results 

and say, OK, someone thought 

they were good animals,” he said. 

“You have to show to export. You 

have to let our customers know 

how we stand within our peers.” 

FARMFAIR | MULTI-BREED SALE 

Australian farm 

buys prize 

heifer at sale 

BY MARY MACARTHUR 


EDMONTON — With shaking 

hands, Rachael Wheeler held her 

cellphone to her ear to get the final go 

ahead from her parents in Australia 

to nod her head one more time and 

buy a bred heifer at the Headliner All 

Breed Sale at Farmfair International. 

Wheeler’s final bid of $27,000 

bought her DMM Blackcap Essence 

7Y, a Black Angus heifer from Miller 

Wilson Angus in Bashaw, Alta, 

owned by Lee and Dawn Wilson. 

“I’m still shaking. I think everyone 

could see how nervous I was. I show 

cows and I never get that nervous. It’s 

really nice to be able to come and do 

this,” said Wheeler of Dubbo, New 

South Wales. 

Wheeler’s parents, Michelle and 

Daniel, used a live internet connection 

to watch the sale on their computer 

and give the nod for the final purchase. 

“It was a bit hard to hear,” she said. 

“Your auction system is a bit different 

than ours so I actually had someone 

here helping here. They were 

watching the auction as it happened, 

live streamed. They could see exactly 

what was happening. It was just a 

matter of keeping in touch and making 

sure we got it done.” 

It’s the fifth time Wheeler has travelled 

to Canada to check out and buy Canadian 

cattle for her aunt and uncle’s Hollywood 

Angus operation and now for 

her own family’s T & R Cattle. 

“We wanted to buy a good heifer 

over here and we wanted to buy the 

top one we could get,” she said. 

“She’s just a super made heifer. I’ve 

been over here four or five times, and 

Lee and Dawn’s cattle have always 

been on the top of my list. They’ve 

probably got one of the best breeding 

herds I’ve ever seen. This heifer just 

caught my eye. We liked her pedigree, 

we like her sire. When you look 

at all his progeny and offspring he’s 

had, they’ve all had that same gain. 

So we certainly knew we are going on 

the right track.” 

Wheeler said they plan to leave the 

heifer in Canada for future shows and 

bring embryos from the heifer back 

to Australia for their own herd. 

Dawn Wilson said the heifer has 

been “pretty special right from a calf” 

and hoped it would bring a good 

price at the Headliner show. 

“You’re always hoping. You always 

hope your best ones are worth good 

dollars,” said Miller. 

It’s the third year for the multibreed 

sale at Farmfair. The owners of 

the top five animals in the judging 

before the sale and the people who 

bought them in the sale split $20,000 

in payout money. 

“It’s a great opportunity for people 

to take part in a sale,” Wilson said.

by Greenwood Limousin of 

Lloydminster, Sask., placed 

second in the Headliner show. It 

was sold for $14,500 to Pinnacle

“It’s a multi-breed sale so any breed 

can take part. What other sale in the 

world are you going to win $5,000 for 

the seller and the buyer and then it 

goes down the line. It’s not just the 

winner, it’s the reserve, third, fourth

CATTLE | GENETICS 



TORONTO — Holsteins trace back 

to a small number of key ancestors, 

which has some within the dairy 

industry concerned about inbreeding 

and loss of genetic diversity. 

This risk was discussed at the World 

Holstein Conference held in Toronto 

Nov. 6-7. 

Bulls with names like Starbuck and 

Blackstar were pivotal breed influencers 

in North America and Australia. 

As the science of genomics advances, 

there is a chance breeders will 

select only the elite animals and create 

future problems. However, studying 

the genetics of thousands of bulls 

shows there is a large gene pool. 

“One of the astonishing things 

when you do that is how much genetic 

variation still exists in our cattle,” 

said Ben Hayes, head of the Dairy 

Futures Co-operative Research Centre 

in Australia. 

The organization is working with 

other countries on the “1,000 bulls 

genome project,” which is sequencing 

the DNA of key ancestors within 

purebred cattle breeds. 

Eight groups are involved in the 

project, which has sequenced 236 

bulls and two cows, including 130 

Holstein, 48 Angus, 15 Jersey and 42 

Fleckvieh. 

Genomic information has allowed 

dairy cattle to achieve greater rates of 

genetic improvement in a shorter 

period of time, but it could also be 

associated with higher rates of 

inbreeding, said researcher Flavio 

Schenkel of the University of Guelph. 

Studies at Guelph showed a clear 

reduction in genetic variance among 

Holsteins from 1950 to 2006. 

Genomic selection started in 2009

“Genomic selection is expected to

Inbreeding, in which close relatives 

are mated, can cause a 

decrease in performance, lower 

milk production and reduced fitness 

of the animals as well as possible 

genetic defects.

more outcrosses are now being made 

rather than overusing the genetics of

THE ROYAL | DAIRY SHOW 

Quebec dairy cow 

on winning streak 

RF Goldwyn Hailey proves to be perfect show cow 

STORIES BY BARBARA DUCKWORTH 


TORONTO — Mario Comtois 

nursed a beer before the big show to 

calm his nerves. 

“It is very stressful, you know,” he 

said in a lilting French accent. 

This has been a very good year for 

the owner and showman of this year’s 

supreme champion dairy cow at the 

Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in 

Toronto. 

His cow, named RF Goldwyn 

Hailey, won the national Holstein 

show and in October was named 

supreme champion at the World 

Dairy Expo in Madison, Wisconsin. 

His family owned operation, Gen- 

Com Holstein Ltd., bought the cow as 

a youngster at the Cowtown Holsteins 

sale in Vermont. 

“She is a perfect show cow and 

she has done very well for us,” said 

Comtois. 

THE ROYAL | RED AND WHITE WINNER 

Its Holstein classification is an 

excellent 97. Born in April 2006, the 

cow has had four calves and 11 offspring. 

Embryos have been sold to Japan, 

Australia and Germany, and more 

offers to purchase were being made 

after the Royal show. 

The farm at Notre-Dame-du-Bon 

Conseil, Que., milks 130 cows and 

has 500 head on site. 

The farm’s main business is livestock 

exports. Comtois has gathered 

thousands of beef and dairy cattle 

from across Canada and exported 

them to Russia, Kazakhstan and 

Ukraine. For the last five years he has 

exported milk cows to Russia. 

“They are looking for good, commercial 

milking cows,” he said during 

the Nov. 2-11 event. 

He also exports pigs, shipping 

30,000 purebred and F1 pigs to 

Cuba and Russia between 2004 and 

2009. 

The grand champion Holstein at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in 

Toronto was RF Goldwyn Hailey owned by Gen-Com Holsteins of Saint 

Georges, Que. Owner Mario Comtois is at the halter. More than 350 

Holsteins showed at the event on Nov. 9 as part of the world Holstein 

conference held in Toronto. | BARBARA DUCKWORTH PHOTOS 

TORONTO — There was a time 

when nobody liked to admit they 

owned a red and white Holstein. 

These days they are the favourite 

flavour, says Glen McNeil, president 

of Holstein Canada. 

“If you had a red and white and a 

black and white, the red would sell 

for a higher price,” McNeil said. 

They have become so popular that 

a genome test will be released later 

this year for the red colour marker, 

and a test for the polled gene will be 

ready soon, he said at the sixth 

national red and white Holstein 

show at the Royal Agricultural Winter 

Fair held Nov. 2-11 in Toronto. 

The progress of this segment of the 

breed is growing, even though a 

smaller pool of red genetics is available. 

McNeil said they are more popular 

in Switzerland than the traditional 

black and white, which is quite an 

achievement considering at one time 

they were culled. 

Some breeders are now looking to 

build an entire red herd, he added.

of the dairy show at the Royal in 2010,

CANADIAN WESTERN AGRIBITION | BISON MANAGEMENT 

Bison biosecurity 

the new normal 

Proactive measures | Producers should 

identify risks and establish risk tolerances 

STORIES BY KAREN BRIERE 

REGINA BUREAU 

Biosecurity was not something a lot 

of bison producers worried about in 

the past. 

Bison herds had roamed wild and 

free and most who began raising 

them on their farms did so because 

they required less management. 

But the past several years have seen 

a change in attitude about the importance 

of biosecurity measures on 

farms, between farms and at feedlots, 

said Murray Woodbury, the 

specialized livestock health and production 

research chair at the Western 

College of Veterinary Medicine in 

Saskatoon. 

He said there has been a wide spectrum 

of producers emerging within 

the industry from those who want to 

maintain the historical integrity of 

bison to those who are into largescale 

ranches and feedlots and more 

intensive management. 

The cost of disease can become 

significant, regardless of where a 

producer is on the spectrum. 

Keeping disease off the farm in the 

first place is critical. 

“A lot of it is just common sense,” 

Woodbury told producers at the 

Canadian Bison Association annual 

convention Nov. 18 in Regina. 

Producers should identify what 

risks their bison face and establish 

their own risk tolerance. 

Those who say they have closed 

herds likely don’t. Vehicles, visitors 

and feed all make their way to farms 

and present risk. As well, there are 

risks within the herd. 

“Usually calves are born healthy 

and acquire disease from older animals, 

other animals, contaminated 

feed and equipment” and other 

things in the environment, Woodbury 

said. “Keep the young away 

from the old. Calve in a clean, dry 

location. Limit the intensity of animal 

contact.” 

Other things producers can do to 

keep disease risk low include limiting 

pen movement and cattle density 

and keeping healthy animals away 

from the sick. 

“Hospital pens are hospital pens,” 

he said. 

He also reminded producers to 

dispose of dead stock as soon as possible, 

except in the case of anthrax 

when disturbing the carcass could 

cause more disease. 

Coyotes could feed on carcasses 

and spread neospora, a highly transmissible 

disease that causes abortions, 

through their feces. The same 

transmission could occur if coyotes 

get into feed sources and defecate. 

Woodbury said other wildlife is a 

source of concern and should be 

watched. Deer can carry Johne’s disease, 

mice carry salmonella, flies cause 

pinkeye and close proximity to sheep 

can cause malignant catarrhal fever. 

Wildlife can also pose risks to water, 

and he recommends that a clean 

trough or pipeline system be used to 

ensure quality water. 

The risk between farms is mainly due 

to moving animals on and off farms. 

Most disease is transmitted from the 

newly acquired animals to the resident 

animals, not older to younger as it 

would within a farm, he said. 

“Purchase your stock from preferred 

buyers who have a preventative 

health and biosecurity plan,” 

Woodbury said. 

Producers should inspect the animals 

coming to their farms or have 

their veterinarians do it, and they 

should ask questions about herd 

health status, vaccinations and 

treatment. 

In a feedlot situation, Woodbury said 

animals should be inspected upon 

arrival and placed into either a soft 

quarantine in adjacent pens or a hard 

quarantine in isolation for a time. 

Fences should be maintained both 

inside the feedlot and along the 

perimeter to ensure animals don’t 

escape or mix. 

Operators should keep a record of 

the movement and removal of 

manure. 

“And don’t use the same equipment 

to handle feed,” he said. 

Continual risk management is a 

reality in the livestock business, 

Woodbury said. 

“Nothing is perfect,” he said.

CANADIAN WESTERN AGRIBITION | BISON VACCINATIONS 

Bison immunization money well spent 

Bison entering feedlots could benefit from pneumonia vaccines 

Vaccinating bison remains a management 

option for producers who 

must rely on vaccines developed for 

beef cattle. 

Dr. Murray Woodbury, research 

chair in specialized livestock health 

and production at the Western College 

of Veterinary Medicine, said 

vaccines aren’t absolutely necessary 

but there might be reasons to administer 

them. 

For example, bison entering a feedlot 

could benefit from being vaccinated 

for some types of pneumonia. 

“You administer an appropriate 

vaccine to a healthy, unstressed 

bison and you will get a response 

that will protect the bison from the 

target disease under normal conditions,” 

he told those producers at the 

Canadian Bison Association con- 

vention Nov. 18. 

However, he asked them to note the 

qualifiers in his statement. 

Bison are rarely unstressed when 

being handled and conditions aren’t 

always normal. 

He reminded producers that vaccination 

is not the same as immunization. 

As well, just because a vaccine 

was administered doesn’t mean 

a bison won’t get a disease. 

Immunization is a result of a process 

initiated in the body by the vaccine. 

He said a pathogen in sufficient 

numbers can overwhelm even the 

most competent immune system. 

“You have to have faith in your vaccine,” 

he said. 

Producers who choose to vaccinate 

should be sure to follow the instruc- 

81 

tions regarding dosage and route. 

“Don’t just give it IB — intra-bison,” 

he said. 

Woodbury said producers should 

definitely not vaccinate against diseases 

that bison don’t get, such as 

bovine respiratory syncytial virus 

and parainfluenza-3. 

Pinkeye vaccines tend not to work 

well, while foot rot vaccines don’t last 

long in bison. 

On the other hand, anthrax vaccine 

can be a valuable tool, particularly in 

areas prone to the soil-borne disease. 

Seven- and eight-way vaccines 

seem to work well against blackleg in 

bison, and Woodbury said they are 

probably worth the money. 

“Vaccination is a waste of money. 

Immunization is money well spent,” 

he said.

DIAGNOSTIC TESTS | SENSITIVITY AND SPECIFICITY 

Diagnostic testing unable to achieve 100 percent accuracy 

ANIMAL HEALTH 

JOHN CAMPBELL, DVM, DVSC 

Vets use their knowledge 

and weigh other factors 

when interpreting results 

Veteri narians often rely on 

clinical and laboratory tests to 

diagnose disease in livestock 

species. 

Diagnostic tests can be as simple as 

listening to a rumen with a stethoscope 

or as complicated as a laboratory 

procedure that isolates and 

identifies a particular virus or bacteria 

or measures a specific enzyme in 

the blood of an animal. 

In many situations, these diagnostic 

tests are an essential part of arriving 

at a more conclusive diagnosis or 

assisting with the development of a 

treatment plan. 

However, it is important to recognize 

that most diagnostic tests are not 

perfect tools. Test results can be misleading 

and in some situations may 

actually give the wrong answer. 

Let’s look at a common example in 

one diagnostic procedure that we 

commonly use in cattle. 

The diagnostic test for tritrichomonas 

foetus (trich) in cattle is a relatively 

straightforward procedure. 

This microscopic-sized, singlecelled 

parasite resides in the reproductive 

tract of cows and in the prepuce 

or sheath area of bulls. It is a 

venereal disease that is transmitted 

from bulls to cows and from cows to 

bulls by mating. 

When cows become infected, the 

parasite can cause early embryonic 

death and subsequent infertility in 

the cow herd. 

Veterinarians are often asked to test 

bulls for this parasite to make sure 

that we don’t bring an infected bull 

onto a breeding pasture. 

The collection method is fairly 

simple: take a sample by scraping the 

inside of the bull’s sheath with a 

pipette and then culture this sample 

in an incubator for several days in a 

special culture media designed for 

the parasite. 

The veterinarian or laboratory 

technician can then examine this 

sample under a microscope and look 

for the small, single-celled organism, 

which has typically multiplied in the 

culture media and now can be seen 

moving throughout the sample. 

However, it turns out that this parasite 

is tricky to grow, and in spite of 

doing everything correctly, we may 

be able to isolate the organism from 

infected bulls only 80 to 90 percent of 

the time. 

If I had a corral full of 100 bulls that

tests is low, resulting in false 

negative results. | FILE PHOTO 

were all infected with trich, I would 

identify only 85 of them as positive 

with this diagnostic test if I tested 

every bull. This is sometimes called 

the “sensitivity” of the diagnostic 

test. 

The test’s sensitivity is defined as 

how well it is able to identify diseased 

individuals. In this case, the test for 

trichomoniasis would have a sensi-

growing canola they are looking for more than yield.

tivity of about 85 percent. 

It also means that there is a 15 percent 

chance that we could incorrectly 

classify an infected bull as negative 

when using this test. 

Veterinarians work around this 

potential diagnostic error by doing 

multiple tests on a bull to make sure it 

is negative. 

The requirement to have three 

negative trich tests is designed to get 

around the problem of imperfect 

sensitivity of the diagnostic test. 

We are sometimes asked to try to 

culture cows for this parasite, but the 

sensitivity is much lower and is probably 

less than 50 percent. We have so 

many false negatives that it really 

isn’t even worth the effort. 

Therefore, all of the diagnostic 

efforts for trich are usually focused 

on the bull, where the test is a little 

more reliable. 

It turns out that it is possible to 

make a mistake in the diagnostic 

process and also have a false positive 

diagnosis. Other parasites that normally 

reside in the feces can sometimes 

be mistaken for trich if manure 

contaminates the culture media. 

A veterinarian or laboratory technician 

might mistake them for trich 

and call the bull positive when it is 

really negative. 

It turns out that this diagnostic 

error is much more uncommon, 

probably occurring in less than one 

percent of uninfected bulls. 

This diagnostic test characteristic is 

called “specificity” and refers to how 

FRANK STEVENS, 

DEKALB GROWER SINCE 2006 

GLENBORO, MB 

well the test correctly diagnoses 

uninfected animals. In this case, the 

test for trich would have a specificity 

of 99 percent. 

The diagnostic test for trich, with a 

sensitivity of 85 percent and a specificity 

of 99 percent, is quite a good 

one. 

Some diseases, such as Johne’s disease 

in cattle, are true diagnostic 

challenges and our best laboratory 

tests barely approach a sensitivity of 

50 percent. 

There are lots of false negative tests 

with this disease and it is difficult to 

screen herds effectively because of 

the poor sensitivity of the diagnostic 

tests. 

Sensitivity and specificity are 

important characteristics of all diagnostic 

tests. Every diagnostic test, 

from the clinical examination to the 

laboratory test, has a possibility of 

either a false positive or a false negative 

result. 

These diagnostic tests are important 

tools for veterinarians and producers, 

but veterinarians are always 

trying to interpret the results, keeping 

in mind the characteristics and 

probabilities of sensitivity and 

specificity. 

Like many things in life, although we 

would like to have a clear cut answer 

to questions, we are still forced to 

deal with some uncertainty.

Provincial approvals needed | The co-op hopes to increase market share for domestic lamb

sheep this fall, but regulatory 

delays have pushed plans back until 

next year. 

“Our goal was we were going to be 

functioning by the fall of 2012. Now, 

with the delay, we’ve told producers 

early in 2013,” said Gord Schroeder, 

general manager of the Saskatchewan 

Sheep Development Board. 

The co-op is waiting for regulatory 

approval from provincial authorities 

before it can proceed on the project.

The co-op plans to sell Canadian 

branded lamb to retailers and consumers 

in an effort to gain market 

share from imported lamb, mostly 

from Australia and New Zealand. 

It says on its website that the market 

for lamb products is worth $600 mil-

consistently available at grocery 

stores and butcher shops. 

Only active sheep producers will be 

able to join the co-op, which will have

RESULTS | THIRD QUARTER 

Pulse company’s earnings hurt by poor pea and lentil exports 

commodities, especially lentils and 

peas, which dampened our Q3 

results,” Legumex president Joel 

Horn told investment analysts in a 

conference call. 

Revenues for the quarter were $56.5 

million, up from $41.4 million for the 

same quarter a year ago, although the 

quarter was only 79 days because the 

company began operations on July 

14., 2011. 

Sales were bolstered by strong bean 

shipments from the company’s 

plants in Manitoba and Minnesota. 

Beans are a high-value product, 

which helped mask the poor performance 

of the company’s Canadian 

pea and lentil processing facilities. 

Earnings before interest, depreciation 

and amortization for the quarter 

was a loss of $2 million compared to 

EBITDA of $1.9 million for the 79-day 

period a year ago. 

One analyst noted Canada’s pea 

and lentil exports were good for the 

quarter. Horn said shipments were 

driven to places where Legumex has 

a lower market share and a lot of 

pound over prices in Ontario. It also 

plans to pay western and eastern 

Canadian producers the same price. 

Western Canadian farmers typically 

receive a $20 to $25 freight discount 

on lambs shipped to Toronto and 

other major markets in Central 

Canada. 

“Our feasibility studies have been 

done on a national pricing system. It 

doesn’t matter where you live in the 

country, you’re going to get paid the 

same price,” Schroeder said. 

A federally inspected slaughter 

facility in the West will be needed to 

offset the discount, but the 

co-op doesn’t plan to build a plant. 

Schroeder said details on how the 

co-op will offer a consistent price in

come in the near future when the coop

product went out in bulk while the 

company usually ships containers. 

Sales were also hurt by reports of a 

good Canadian pulse harvest. 

“Buyers of certain products postponed 

purchases based on the 

expectation of a larger and less 

expensive new crop,” said Horn. 

“We also passed on some low margin 

business due to heightened 

credit risk.” 

Horn is confident the third quarter 

results were an anomaly. He sees 

normal sales in the fourth quarter.

Governments have consistently 

lowered taxes over the 

last several years for business 

in general but especially for small 

business. 

It was intended to provide a stimulus 

for business and employment 

growth in this important sector of the 

economy. 

However, to a certain degree, the 

Small Business Deduction (SBD) 

also worked to stimulate a large 

increase in the number of small 

Canadian corporations that file their 

taxes under SBD rates. 

About 30 years ago, the government 

started clamping down on what it 

called Personal Service Businesses 

(PSBs) masquerading as small Canadian 

corporations. 

Generally speaking, the Canada 

Revenue Agency considers a person 

operating a business to be a PSB corporation 

if that person provides services 

to a client corporation that 

would normally be provided in the 

same manner if the person was an 

employee of the client corporation. 

The term “incorporated employee” 

is frequently used to describe this 

situation. 

What concerned the government 

was the loss of higher–taxed, salaried 

employees to lower taxed corporations. 

The government appears 

to be rethinking the strategy, or at 

least attempting to stem the loss of 

tax dollars as a result of this favoured 

treatment.

recognized this threat to government 

revenue and acted to remove the SBD 

and the ability to claim most ordinary 

expenses from companies that the 

CRA determines are actually PSBs. 

The lowering of the general business 

tax rates over the last several 

years and the introduction of new tax 

rules in 2006 that were more 

favourable to PSB corporations have 

essentially taken some of the sting 

out of measures designed to curb the 

proliferation of PSBs. 

The CRA began putting significant 

audit pressure on small incorporated 

businesses to curb the incidence of 

companies providing personal services 

but claiming the SBD. It recently 

performed more than 200 audits 

and determined that almost half 

were actually PSBs. Information 

technology (IT) consulting and contracting 

businesses have been a particular 

target. 

Here is an example I recently 

encountered of how this could affect 

farm businesses. 

A husband and a spouse each have 

an active corporation that is subject 

to the SBD. The husband’s corporation 

operates the farm while the 

wife’s corporation provides IT and 

computer consulting services. She 

also works on the farm.

“The strength of our diverse CHS 

business portfolio, along with a 

strong domestic and global footprint, 

combined in fiscal 2012 to allow us to 

successfully navigate continued 

market volatility,” said CHS president 

Carl Casale. 

CHS is owned by 350,000 farmers 

and ranchers, either directly or indirectly 

through 1,100 smaller co-ops. 

Owners of CHS stock, which is traded

paid as salary and an accompanying 

T4 slip was provided. This would 

then be taxed at the marginal tax rate 

applicable to the spouse, which 

invariably would be higher than the

The question then is, would it not 

be more favourable tax wise for the 

spouse’s corporation to invoice the 

husband’s corporation for work done 

and thus be taxed under SBD rates? 

The problem is that the work done 

for the husband’s corporation would 

be considered as work provided by a 

PSB. Claiming it under SBD rates 

would almost certainly attract an 

audit and reassessment by the CRA.

VITERRA SALE | CHINESE APPROVAL 

China OK not tied to Nexen: Ritz 

CHICAGO, Ill. (Reuters) — Federal 

agriculture minister Gerry Ritz 

doesn’t think China’s review of 

Glencore’s takeover of Viterra under 

its anti-monopoly law is tied to 

Canada approving a Chinese takeover 

of a Canadian oil company. 

The review by China’s commerce 

ministry, which could take until 

Dec. 10, is the final regulatory hurdle 

for Glencore International PLC’s 

$6.1 billion takeover of Viterra Inc. 

China is also waiting to hear if 

Canada will approve state-owned 

CNOOC’s $15.1 billion takeover of 

Nexen. Dec. 10 is Canada’s deadline 

to rule on that transaction. 

“They’re treating these very differently, 

which of course they are,” Ritz 

said. “One is an investment into 

their country, predicated on what 

Glencore will do into the future. The 

other is an investment into Canada.” 

MIKE WILSON 

AGRIUM 

85 

If the Chinese approval comes in 

December, Agrium Inc. expects to 

close its $575 million purchase of 

Viterra farm retail stores in the first 

quarter of 2013, Agrium chief executive 

officer Mike Wilson said. 

Assuming the Glencore-Viterra 

deal closes as scheduled, Agrium 

will file for a review by Canada’s 

Competition Bureau in late December 

and hopes to close the deal late 

in the first quarter. Agrium would get 

232 Canadian farm retail outlets as 

well as 17 stores in Australia.
