Feed Pea Benchmark Report Oct. 28/18

Values for all ingredients in Manitoba remained largely unchanged over the past two weeks. However, feed barley and wheat prices in Saskatchewan and Alberta declined sharply as better weather allowed for the resumption of harvesting activities. Corn DDGS prices inched higher and prospects for further increases remain bullish in light of the revised fuel mandate policy recently announced by the US government. Protein pricing remains choppy, weighed down by the prospects of a bumper US soybean crop and they buoyed by large volume bargain purchases of both beans and meal. Feed pea prices remained unchanged, trading for $260/T in Manitoba, $255/T in Saskatchewan, and $250/T in Alberta.

AB: $299
SK: $262
MB: $256

The big story this week was China placing a 75.8 per cent anti-dumping duty on Canadian canola seed imports.

While China claims the duty is temporary - pending the conclusion of its anti-dumping investigation into Canadian canola next month - many are calling on the federal government to take the lead and get the tariffs removed. The SaskAgToday.com Roundtable discusses what farm groups, and politicians, have been saying.
