A great big THANK YOU to all who helped make the 2011 X-Change a great success.

Canada's Fruit & Veg Tech X-Change (CFVTX) is an outdoor, not-for-profit, horticultural trade show for commercial fruit and veg producers and their families. Encompassing: Row Crop, Orchard, Vineyard, Greenhouse and tobacco sectors.

This progressive sector is showcased under real farm conditions, all in one location on Thursday July 12, Friday July 13, and Saturday July 14 2012, right here in Norfolk County – just 10 mins south of the “HORT HWY#3” - Simcoe, Ontario.

A staggering 242 exhibitors came from across North America to engage in the inaugural Hort showcase. For a first time event, we were extremely pleased with the showmanship and enthusiasm put into product and service displays. 2,200 qualified producer families came through the gates this year, with the intention to do business.

We have assembled a top notch steering committee of 30+ exhibitors and producers. We heard loud and clear that the dates of the X-Change had to fall between planting and harvest for the majority of fruit and veg crops in this province, hence the new dates of: July 12th,13th,14th 2012.

We are located at 1195 Front Road St Williams. Postal code: ON N0E 1P0.

Pulse Market Insight #303

Faltering Monsoon Is Central to the Pulse Outlook For pulse markets, few things matter more than the Indian monsoon and this year’s version has been erratic. June rainfall came in well below average, and while a burst of heavier rain in late June and early July briefly narrowed the gap, volumes dropped off sharply again right in the middle of the main planting window. Rainfall amounts picked up again in late July, but the cumulative monsoon rainfall is still running 16% below the long-term average. There’s still a lot of monsoon season left, but the longer the shortfall persists, the more it matters for both of India’s pulse crops — the kharif crop being seeded now and the rabi crop that follows this winter. The uneven rains are showing up clearly in seeding progress. Indian farmers picked up the pace when moisture improved, but the most recent weekly data still show planting of tur (pigeon peas) 11% behind last year and 10% below the average pace. Some of that ground can still be ma
