Anyone else deeply concerned about how CN is going to move this crop to market.
they had such a dismal service record now, and they are chasing oil business.. Grain will be left to rot on the parries

Everything is full down here. Somebody better start moving some grain east or west soon.

that was a good watch, many farmers have no faith in Suzuki and his anti GM stance.
he was quoting from 1990's and even futher back,
he obviously hadn't read any current info on the subject.

all the bins in NE sask are full too

Suzuki worships mother earth. Ever listen to his sermons - everytime he speaks. And he uses science to back up his beliefs. Not science to discover the truth.

Anybody seen any issues with grain heating already? Have left all my bin tops open in non aeration bins and found 2 heating today. Been in storage less than a month. Wheat went in at over 30 degrees but the moisture was in the 11.8-11.9 range? Bugs will be next.....

Why don't you try unloading it into your truck then dumping it back in the bin. Moving it around should cool it down lots.

Finished harvest about a month ago. Planted 2 quarters of winter wheat (1 wet, 1 dry) for the first time in years. Yields were quite good this year with canola being the worst and HRSW being the best. Gonna have to try and do lots of sledding and think about selling grain in the spring.
