The rest of yesterday's video now uploaded. I missed the best part (starting the Cockshutt 50 and the 81 GMC) as the Gopro battery ran out of energy before I did.

Do you sell some oats or just feed them all to your cattle?

Corn and soybean prices are climbing here. Do you see your wheat and canola prices going up there?

I usually sell a semi load or two of oats a year. My little herd can't eat all I grow on 40 acres.
Canola prices have really jumped in the past month. Wheat is kind of hanging around where its been for months. Oats are a good bit higher than they were a year ago.
 
I’ve assigned an appropriate chain to stay with each of our working machines to reduce lost time going after a chain. I couldn’t tell you how much time I have saved with that system because the chains all gravitate to some seasonal resting place. Seriously, a question. Would oats from your bin go for human consumption? Who decides what goes where? Always a good video, beautiful country there.

The oats I sell to Cargill, Richardson, or Viterra, I have no idea what the end use is. Lately I've been selling oats to local guys who feed them to livestock. I see lately Viterra is offering a slight premium on oats that were not pre-harvest sprayed with glyphosate so I'm guessing that is oats for the human consumption market.
