Farmer’s Caught Between Unenforced Agreements, Gamemanship

We’re not quite halfway through our harvest here in Canada: The lentils and barley are done, the canola is starting to come in, and soon we’ll get to the durum wheat and chickpeas. It has been a challenging year doing business with Mother Nature. As we begin to calculate this year’s yields, however, we’re starting to hear misleading reports in the media about our export opportunities. I’ve been a little annoyed by the sentiments and insinuations in some stories.
