Saskatchewan Crop Report to September 09, 2024; Producers were able to make signifant progress due to lack of rain during the period. Lentils are complete. Canary seed progress has progressed to 32% resulting in an uptick in grower deliveries to plants. https://t.co/7AZ8ejN8GN

Saskatchewan Crop Report to September 02, 2024; First glimpse of estimated average yield by crop! Lentils are just about done at 92% and we put a small dent in Canary seed at 19% complete provincially. #yield https://t.co/hg6hSgukzc

Saskatchewan Crop Report to August 26, 2024; Rain makes grain, but it can also be a real pain - when you don't want or need it (i.e. heavy rain that just passed through the province). Lentils are 72% complete and Canary seed is 5% complete provincially. https://t.co/i3Q49OP5KO

Got this picture from one of our lead employees at our main yard with caption "Ice Cream Lol". #takeahint

Shouldn't this also read "If you're currently in line at the elevator to dump #crop2024 grain - reverse, reverse, reverse."

Keep on keeping on; It's times like this that we have an opportunity to showcase the value we bring to the agri-food supply chain. We do this best by providing tools to our customers so they can keep on shipping during this rail disruption. Stay tuned for more. #railstrike

Teamsters union serves CN Rail with 72-hour strike notice as CPKC stoppage ongoing. How's that for certainty! https://t.co/PfDj7wRpgn

[David Nyznyk @agrifood]

The union representing workers at two major Canadian railways said on Friday they would challenge the constitutionality of a government decision to refer their labor dispute to a national board, even as some of their members returned to work. https://t.co/p2WPJM2lLX

Rail Strike over; The federal government will end the work stoppages at Canada’s two largest railways less than 24 hours after they began, sending the parties into binding arbitration as supply chains were roiled by the shutdown. https://t.co/yO3uTUndiP

[David Nyznyk @agrifood]

Saskatchewan Crop Report to August 19, 2024; Lentils are 50/50.......50% harvested and 50% in the fields that is. Canaryseed, just starting at 4% complete. Complete crop report in PDF available here; https://t.co/2c58amvQwt

[David Nyznyk @agrifood]

Rail Strike Ending? Everybody's talkin' about imminent "back-to-work" legislation, but they seem to be overlooking the fact that Canadian parliament isn't set to sit again until September 16? Will "Back to work" notices disrupt summer breaks for our MP's. https://t.co/pcS0XNsVEy

[David Nyznyk @agrifood]

We are less than a week from a strike or lockout at both of Canada's primary Class 1 railways that seems to be increasingly inevitable. Federal government rejects CN request to intervene in labour dispute ahead of potential lockout, strike. https://t.co/lSLaz4hW3P

[David Nyznyk @agrifood]

Saskatchewan Crop Report to August 12, 2024; Lentils are 28% harvested provincially, up from 8% last week. In the South West 45% are harvested with another 20% "ready" and in the South East 29% are harvested with another 24% "ready". https://t.co/m5R4E9lkfb

Some crops are screaming "buy me now". Want to know which ones? Input the current prices and yield estimates into the 2024 Crop Planning Calculator as provided by Saskatchewan's Ministry of Agriculture and if it's priced near or below cost of production. https://t.co/kNzl4fGUsM

Can't blame farmers for food inflation.

Looking pretty ugly.

Mexico is now the world’s 7th largest food exporter (It's largest #agrifood export, beer, contributed more than $5.8 billion). Domestic "agriculture" production is expected to exceed 300 million tonnes in 2024 up slightly from 298 million tonnes last year. https://t.co/Ym2c0FL1XN

Above Food announces $34m acquisition of The Redwood Group’s crop ingredients business (will pay $8.1 million in cash, as well as 5.6 million newly issued common shares of Above Food). https://t.co/1RUmzmMyO9

[David Nyznyk @agrifood]

To strike or not to strike? CPKC's decision to lock out rail employees at 00:01 on August 22 is a calculated risk because history shows a clear pattern of "back-to-work" legislation in - at most - a couple of weeks. https://t.co/R0GvD5yVSz

[David Nyznyk @agrifood]

SK Crop Report to 08/05; Lentils are 8% harvested provincially with another 7% "ready". As expected, the Southern part of the province leads the way with 10% complete. We are thinking that the first available Lentil crops will have the best overall colour. https://t.co/DB0xjaY2C6
