Faba Bean Feed Benchmark July

Feed wheat, barley, and corn prices remained largely unchanged across the Prairies over the past two weeks, although barley prices showed further signs of weakening in Alberta. Protein prices meanwhile continued to drop on good new crop prospects as well as shorter term concerns over Chinese tariffs coming into effect on soybean meal exports. Both soybean and canola meal prices declined by another $10-20/T as a result. Corn DDGS values dropped by another $15/T on weaker demand. Feed peas continued to trade in the $260-265/T range in Saskatchewan and $265-270 in Manitoba and Alberta.
 
AB: $289
SK: $306
MB: $303

Running a Farm Store + Starting No-Till Gardens w/Blue Goose Farm

Video: Running a Farm Store + Starting No-Till Gardens w/Blue Goose Farm

We cover: today we are chatting with Keenan McVey of Blue Goose Farm in Ontario Canada. Keenan, along with his wife Ashley, run this small farm and along with it a really interesting, in-town Farm Store that is a little different from what you might think of as a farm store and has proved to be an invaluable marketing option for them. Keenan’s roots are in the culinary world, and the farm was also started with another chef from the area some of you may know, named Matty Matheson (of the excellent show The Bear). Keenan tells us that story as well as helps detail the technical stuff about how the gardens were created and how they are maintained.
