Corn pricing meanwhile remained stable with the drop in futures markets offset by the strengthening Canadian dollar. Corn DDGS prices recovered some value from 2 weeks ago and are now trading at a slight premium to corn prices. Soybean meal values remained unchanged in Manitoba but increased by $20-30T further west. Canola meal increased by $10-15/T in Manitoba and Saskatchewan but remained unchanged to slightly lower in Alberta.

Video: What is Anhydrous Ammonia and Why Do We Use It?

Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. Our part-time employee, Brock, also helps with the filming. 1980 was our first year in Waldron where our main farm is now. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.

I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.
