@DeanPat57613010 From what I’ve been told, the number of dumped litres he uses includes waste product. So something has been made from milk( butter, cheese, cream) and the biproduct has been dumped. He hates supply management and will try to make it look bad in anyway possible.
@KenSchaus@MattWalpole86 On the Dairy side, I asked my nutritionist yesterday about it, she told me that Cargill has it. They wanted to have access to it if it was ever to be mandated. Far as she knows, no dairy ration is being formulated with it in Canada( for Cargill/Purina)
@JimBenn71220505 My grandfather always told me hay won’t burn in its own moisture, it will mould. I’ve never wanted to test that theory. I apply acid at 15% and higher to 22%. Big squares. Wrap it if higher than 22%
@Mullin_95@valleyfarmboy I’m going to side with Bruce, Originally there were all 100 acre farms. Maybe one operation owns multiple farms. But the most important part is each farm has to be named after whoever cropped it 100 years ago. And those names can’t be changed, even if they’re dead
@clintwfischer Being from Canada, things are different (ie Medicaid??), but could the land be sold to the children full value? The parents hold the mortgage and is forgivable on death? Same transfer of value but gives some security to the parents if they need some emergency money down later?
@islandviewag@AshtoniaCows@5151john It would be great if they make chocolate there again, but it sounds like if it does open, it will be none chocolate treats like nibs.
@mmcgovarin @OntarioDairy My mother found a milk tractor-trailer at Walmart a few years ago. Looked more like a fuel tanker, but it was painted white and blue and said Milk.
@islandviewag@TompaBarrie I would wonder if there’s a yield difference. My silage stubble always looks a week or so advanced compared to full stalk stubbles, for the first month. They doesn’t seem to be any difference come fall, maybe even an advantage to full stubble on dry years
