Canadian Grain Industry Gathers in Saskatoon [Jan. 13-16]

Western Canadian Crop Protection Show Kicks Off

Western Canada’s premier grain industry event aimed at showcasing the latest technology, equipment and services to grain growers opens its doors this week at Prairieland Park Corporation in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

The Western Canadian Crop Production Show is expected to attract about sixteen thousand people over four days. A total of 336 companies will be present, featuring more than 1,000 trade show booth displays.

One of the largest features at the show this year is grain storage. With record yields, some farmers, especially in Saskatchewan where they grew the largest crop in the province’s history, have to revaluate their grain storage capacity situation. A number of companies are offering new options for grain storage, targeting those farmers who’ve been growing bigger yields, outgrowing their storage facilities.

Historically wars like the 2026 Iran war are bullish hard assets like grains, metals and energy! The funds are spooked and do not want to be short, but do they price in the news over time, similar to the Ukraine/Russian war that started on Feb. 24, 2022? A closure of the Strait of Hormuz is the key to the surge in crude oil, natural gas prices and fertilizer prices.  Grains are breaking out to new contract highs as a hedge against inflation.
